Chapter Twenty-Six: The White Lotus

Ji Yan said "um" indifferently, and then lowered his head and began to reply to the message on his mobile phone, without any intention of answering her.

Chen Zhiwan smiled a little embarrassed, and was about to say something more when he heard the cold voice of the man behind the screen: "Mutter, I'll answer the phone." ”

After Zhao Jinzhou said this, he turned around with his mobile phone and strode in the direction of the bathroom.

Xu Chenyin sat on the seat and watched Zhao Jinzhou's figure walk away, before picking up his mobile phone and clicking on the chat page with Chen Lin: [Linlin, my brother and I were eating out, I just happened to hear a male voice from the table next to me, it seemed to be Ji Yan, but there was a screen in the middle, and I couldn't see it. 】

The other side quickly replied: [How can it be such a coincidence. 】

Xu Chenyin lowered her eyes and looked at this news, her eyebrows raised slightly, and she agreed with this sentence in her heart, but when she was about to turn off her mobile phone, Chen Lin sent another sentence: [Otherwise, you take a sneak look? 】

This news instantly aroused Xu Chenyin's imminent heart.

She just took a sneak peek to make sure, it shouldn't be so coincidental, right?

Thinking like this, her body was already one step faster than her brain, and she moved back from her chair and looked at it slightly.

Just the second she raised her eyesβ€”

Ji Yan seemed to have anticipated her movements, and a pair of black eyes were staring at her faintly at the moment.

The moment when the eyes met and faced each other.

Xu Chenyin was stunned at first, the hand holding the mobile phone subconsciously tightened, and his fingertips accidentally pressed the hands-free button for voice playback.

[Chenyin, is it Ji Yan? 】

Chen Lin's voice came out clearly.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

However, before she could turn it off, Chen Lin's voice continued to come out: [By the way, I heard Li Yu say that Chen Zhiwan's white lotus has also returned to China, you be careful that she hooks Ji Yan again. 】

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Xu Chenyin's gaze slowly moved to Chen Zhiwan's ugly face, and the scene became embarrassing for a while.

After being quiet for a few seconds, Xu Chenyin hurriedly retracted his gaze, pretended to look at Ji Yan as if nothing happened, and said softly: "What a coincidence, you are also here." ”

Ji Yan's dark eyes skimmed over a touch of indescribable emotion, lowered his head, and replied to the mobile phone message, but did not respond.

On the contrary, Chen Zhiwan had already adjusted his mood, hooked his lips and chuckled: "Chenyin, I haven't seen you for a long time, I just returned to China, and Ji Yan went to pick me up just now." ”

Hearing this, Xu Chenyin's eyes deliberately fell on Ji Yan, and he smiled reluctantly: "Yes, then you can eat, I won't bother you." ”

It happened that Zhao Jinzhou came slowly at this time, and Chen Zhiwan asked with a smile: "Who is this, don't you want to introduce Chenyin?" ”

When Zhao Jinzhou's eyes swept to Ji Yanshi, a pair of dark eyes darkened, walked to Xu Chenyin's side, put his hand on Xu Chenyin's shoulder, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked: "Murmuring?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Know. Xu Chenyin pursed her lips, first looked at Chen Zhiwan, and said without emotion: "This is my high school classmate." ”

"What about this one?"

Zhao Jinzhou said and looked at Ji Yan.

It just so happened that Ji Yan also raised his eyes, his eyes were cold and light, and fell on Xu Chenyin, as if waiting for her answer.

Xu Chenyin held the mobile phone, his palm was full of beads of sweat, and he thought about it and said, "...... My colleague. ”

"Colleague?"

Zhao Jinzhou took the lead in sneering, and Chao Ji stretched out his hand: "Hello, I'm the elder brother who murmurs, Zhao Jinzhou." ”

"Muttering?"

Ji Yan didn't stretch out his hand, but just pulled the corner of his lower lip: "I'm sorry, my hand has been injured recently." ”

"Understood." Zhao Jinzhou shrugged his shoulders too much, and calmly explained the title of mumble: "Muttering is my exclusive name for my sister, so you friends may not know." ”

Although he calls himself his brother, his possession of Xu Chenyin is extremely obvious.

Chen Zhiwan curled his lips and chuckled: "I can see that you are very good to Chenyin." ”

Zhao Jinzhou's eyebrows moved slightly: "Of course ......"

"Brother, let's go." Xu Chenyin stood up suddenly, interrupted Zhao Jinzhou's words, and said with a pale face: "My master suddenly looked for me." ”

Zhao Jinzhou's eyes fell on her with an inexplicable meaning, and after a while, he bowed slightly: "Let's go, send you over." ”

Seeing the two of them walk out of the restaurant, Chen Zhiwan raised his hand and stroked the short neck-length hair around his ear, and said leisurely: "My brother has never been like this to me. ”

Ji Yan didn't speak, and looked sideways at the two people who had already walked to the side of the road, with a pair of dark eyes that were deep and complicated.

The hot wind blew, Xu Chenyin stood on the side of the road, holding the mobile phone with a deeper intensity, and his face still did not ease at all.

"Mutter."

Zhao Jinzhou stood in front of her against the light, and said in a dark voice: "That's the one you can't forget." ”

He said this affirmatively.

When Xu Chenyin was in high school, his father and Liu Rou had just gotten married, and he was still in the United States at that time, so he was informed of the news by his father.

When he got out of the car at the door of the hotel with a cold face, he happened to see her cheap sister holding a teenager and couldn't give up.

At that time, he didn't think so, and even mixed it with the ingredients of watching the excitement in his heart.

But in the countless nights after that, he thought back to the scene of that night again, and often regretted it to the extreme, knowing that his cheap sister would like him so much, and when he saw that scene, the first thing he did should be to break it up.

It will not be a situation where Xu Chenyin and that man will develop into a prairie fire and be difficult to extinguish.

Xu Chenyin raised his eyes, met his gaze, did not deny it, and nodded lightly.

"That's his girlfriend."

Zhao Jinzhou said, looked back at the two figures in the restaurant, retracted his gaze, and said slowly: "After so many years, he has a new life, and you should forget the immature relationship in the past." ”

A new life?

Xu Chenyin's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her apricot eyes were full of worry.

She didn't feel that Ji Yan had a life, on the contrary, Ji Yan trapped herself in the past.

He can't forgive himself, and he can't forgive her.

He didn't even want to tell her why.

Zhao Jinzhou pursed his thin lips, pondered for a moment, and said, "Let's go, send you to the place where you work." ”

Xu Chenyin nodded absentmindedly, and when she stepped down the steps, her feet suddenly stepped into the air, and her heart suddenly emptied.

It was Zhao Jinzhou who hugged her in his arms in time, twisted his eyebrows, and reminded in a low voice: "Don't be distracted when you walk." ”

Xu Chenyin came back to his senses, thought about something again, answered lightly, and withdrew from his arms in time.

"Ji Yan, do you still have a voice in your heart?"

Chen Zhiwan remembered the scene just now, and asked softly.

"Zhiwan, I don't have anything to do with you, I still have something to do today, so I'll go first."

After Ji Yan finished speaking, he stood up and walked straight out of the restaurant.
