Chapter 61: Lingda, My Boyfriend
Wang Zining didn't expect to see Qiao Wen here.
Qiao Wen didn't expect that the guest he received today turned out to be Wang Zining.
The two were stunned for a long time, their faces full of shock.
"What's wrong with Wang Tezhu?"
One of them came over and asked.
"Ah, nothing." She came back to her senses: "Let's check in first." ”
Jowen took their ID cards and lowered her head to help them check in, her hands shaking as she tapped on the keyboard.
Wang Zining looked at Qiao Wen carefully, she seemed to have lost a lot of weight, but her whole person was much more proud.
"Okay, you can see it when you go out of the room."
Qiao Wen handed over the ID and room card to Wang Zining.
"You go back to your room and rest first." Wang Zining sent the room card to the others.
"What about you?"
"I'll be back in a moment."
Everyone didn't say anything more, and now they just want to go back to their rooms to rest.
Seeing that everyone had walked out, she turned around: "Wenwen, you..."
"Sister Zining, long time no see."
"Long time no see."
"Let's go sit outside."
Qiao Wen took Wang Zining to the rest area outside, and made a pot of tea by the way: "This tea is delicious, you can taste it." ”
"You've been in Westside all these years?"
Qiao Wen's hand paused: "Yes." ”
"No wonder, no wonder Mr. Xie didn't find you no matter how much he searched. He always thought that you would go to a city with a sea, but he didn't expect you to run to Xicheng. ”
Qiao Wen smiled: "Xicheng is also very good, I used to be narrow-minded, I always felt that the sea was wide, but now I know that the desert has no borders." ”
"Wenwen, you've lost a lot of weight."
"Sister Zining, I have lived a good life over the years, I have eaten well, slept well, successfully completed my studies, and have my own career, I am very happy."
"So?"
"So can you help me keep this secret?"
Wang Zining didn't speak, just looked at Qiao Wen quietly, her eyes filled with pity and heartache.
"Sister Zining, it was my fault for not saying goodbye at the beginning, but I still hope you can help me hide it."
"Okay, I'll not tell him." Wang Zining stood up: "Wen Wen ......" She stopped talking, and then smiled: "I'll go clean up first." ”
Qiao Wen watched Wang Zining leave, and then immediately called Ling Da, but Ling Da's phone was never connected, and after three years, such a sense of uneasiness swept through his body again.
In the evening, Jowen hosted a welcome dinner for the new guests as usual.
It was still a little cool at night, and she sat in the middle in a black sundress and a brown scarf: "Welcome friends from afar, today is a welcome dinner, everyone can drink to their heart's content." ”
Everyone had a good impression of this beautiful homestay owner, and they raised their glasses to thank Qiao Wen for his hospitality.
"What's the fun with the beautiful boss?"
Qiao Wen put down his wine glass: "You can go sandboarding, you can also drive desert motorcycles, if you don't like to play these and sit here quietly and watch the scenery." She looked into the distance and pointed to a small sand dune and said, "You can also climb up to that position and sit there overlooking the desert oasis." ”
Everyone was attracted by the project Qiao Wen said, Wang Zining said with a smile: "Mr. Xia can experience it with his wife tomorrow, such a scene is not seen in the south." ”
Only then did Qiao Wen notice that there were two people sitting there calmly in the room, without speaking.
It turned out that Sister Zining came to Xicheng to accompany the guests this time.
She knew that she couldn't stay longer and needed to leave time for them.
"Everyone, I still have something to deal with, if you want to eat something more, you can ask Sister Zining to find me."
After speaking, Qiao Wen signaled to Wang Zining and left the table.
Qiao Wen came to the door of the B&B alone, and the evening breeze was cool, she wrapped her scarf tightly, and then leaned against the door and lit a cigarette.
During the clouds, she looked up at the moon, today is the night of the full moon, the stars are shining, and the moon shadow is sparse.
She chuckled and expertly dusted off her cigarette ash.
Suddenly, a bright light shone through.
Qiao Wen squinted her eyes and looked over, the light was too dazzling, she didn't see the license plate clearly, she just thought that Lingda had rushed back.
She stood up straight, facing the cart, one hand across her chest and the other on top of it as she continued to smoke a cigarette.
The cool breeze blew her long hair a little messy, but the more she did, the more beautiful she became.
As the car approached, the lights dimmed.
Only then did Qiao Wen realize that it was not Lingda's car.
The occupants of the car held their breath as they saw the people in front of the car.
Xiao Du also looked at the person in front of him in disbelief: "Xie, Mr. Xie, she, she ......"
Xie Zhengyu sat in the car and looked at Qiao Wen, and a trance suddenly hit.
He closed his eyes, then opened them again, it was really Jowen, and she was standing in front of her car.
But Qiao Wen didn't see the people in the car clearly, she simply thought it was just tourists who came to stay, and she was waiting for them to get out of the car and ask.
However, Qiao Wen's cigarette had burned out, and the people in the car still had no intention of getting out.
She thought maybe she was thinking too much and was about to turn around and go back.
"Wen Wen."
A familiar voice came, and Qiao Wen's back stiffened, and she didn't dare to look back, but her breathing began to become rapid.
The footsteps behind her were getting closer and closer, and she wanted to escape, but she couldn't take a single step.
Xie Zhengyu looked at Qiao Wen's thin back and wanted to reach out to touch it, but those trembling hands couldn't reach forward anymore.
"Wen Wen."
In the quiet night, Xie Zhengyu's voice was particularly gentle.
If the first sound of his cry was tentative, then this one was only longing.
Suddenly, Qiao Wen felt a warmth on her body, and her whole person was held in Xie Zhengyu's arms.
She felt the man tighten his embrace, holding himself firmly in prison.
The two of them maintained this posture for a long time, so long that Qiao Wen felt that his body was a little numb.
She struggled a little, but in exchange for tighter confinement.
"Let go of me." It was the first thing they said when they met, Jowen.
The man behind her shook his head, and the voice came from her ear: "I won't let go again." ”
"I'm not leaving, let's go in and talk."
Finally, the man's arms loosened.
Qiao Wen suddenly felt a chill on her body, and such a slight feeling of coolness made her wake up suddenly.
"Come with me."
Xie Zhengyu followed Qiao Wen into the wine room in the B&B, and Qiao Wen poured him a glass of red wine: "Warm up." ”
"Thank you."
Xie Zhengyu took the cup, but he didn't drink it.
It was Qiao Wen, who had already drunk two glasses by himself.
"When did you come to Xicheng?" He asked.
"Three years ago."
Obviously, Xie Zhengyu was surprised by this answer: "You have been here?" ”
"Yes."
Suddenly, Xie Zhengyu smiled: "In order not to let me find you, I deliberately chose the inland, didn't you?" You know I'm going to look for you in a city with a sea, right? ”
Jowen didn't speak, and continued to drink from his glass.
"Is it worth it? Abandon your favorite sea in order to hide from me. ”
Qiao Wen put the empty cup down, and then said slowly: "I haven't seen other scenery before, so I only think the sea is beautiful." Now I love the desert even more. ”
This sentence sounded particularly harsh to Xie Zhengyu, and he felt that Qiao Wen meant something.
"Wenwen, your goal has been achieved." He changed the subject.
"Mine?"
He chuckled, "It's mine too." ”
Qiao Wen finally understood that he was talking about a marriage contract with Wu Qingwan.
She held up her glass: "Well, congratulations to us." ”
He looked at Qiao Wen, the man he had been thinking about for a long time was now sitting beside him, but she seemed to have changed.
He couldn't see himself in her eyes.
"Are you okay all these years?"
"I'm fine, eat well, sleep well. Sister Zining didn't tell you? ”
"Zining? What to tell me? ”
Qiao Wen smiled slightly: "Didn't she tell you that I was here?" ”
Xie Zhengyu shook his head: "No, I came because the customer is here." ”
Qiao Wen thought to herself that she was wrong to blame Wang Zining, no wonder she would keep a secret for herself, it turned out that she knew that they would meet eventually.
"I'm fine, I should say that I'm fine with Lingda."
After many years, Xie Zhengyu still felt uncomfortable when he heard Lingda's name again.
"You guys?
"We're in this together."
Qiao Wen's words seemed to make time stand still, Xie Zhengyu looked straight at Qiao Wen, trying to find a flaw in her face that these words were false.
But he failed.
Qiao Wen stared directly at herself, without the slightest dodge.
"Warm ......"
At this time, Lingda came back, and he knew that Qiao Wen would be drinking here at this time, so he went directly to the wine room.
But he didn't expect Xie Zhengyu to appear here.
He looked at Xie Zhengyu, his eyes full of vigilance.
Qiao Wen got up and walked to Ling Da's side, and then hugged him: "You're back, why are you so late." Then she whispered softly in Lingda's ear, "Help me." ”
Xie Zhengyu looked at the two people in front of her, her brows furrowed, many years ago, she also welcomed herself home.
"yes, I miss you."
Then Ling Da looked at Xie Zhengyu: "Mr. Xie, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Xie Zhengyu got up: "Long time no see." ”
"Mr. Xie, I'm sorry I can't accompany you, our boyfriend is back, we still have something to do."
Qiao Wen didn't give Xie Zhengyu room to speak at all, and walked out of the wine room directly with Ling Da on his shoulder.
The two returned to Jowen's room, and when the door was closed, Jowen relaxed.
The whole person was like a puddle of mud, piled up on the floor.
"How did he come?"
"Dinner partners."
The disguise just now is already the limit of what Qiao Wen can do, but what about tomorrow? What to do the day after tomorrow?
He already knew that he was here, so should he continue to escape?
Qiao Wen only felt a splitting headache, and she held her head with both hands, extremely sad.
"What's wrong with you?" Lingda immediately ran over.
"What to do, what should I do?"
Ling Da looked at Qiao Wen's appearance and felt distressed: "It's okay, Qiao Wen, you always have to face it, let's do it together." ”
"Lingda, I thought I didn't care anymore, but no, I still feel heartbroken when I see him, I still feel heartache, I can't control myself." Qiao Wen's eyes began to become confused, and it seemed to go back to three years ago.
Ling Da hugged Qiao Wen: "It's okay, as long as you are strong-willed, it will pass." ”
But Lingda, I have never been able to be firm in my will for him.
That night, no one had a good night's sleep.
The next day, Wang Zining knocked on Qiao Wen's door early.
"Sister Zining? What's wrong? ”
"Wenwen, where are we going to have breakfast?" Wang Zining looked into Qiao Wen's room from time to time, as if he was looking for something.
"The house in the middle of the restaurant, the chef should have done it, Ling Da should be ...... in a while" Qiao Wen glanced at the time and it was only five o'clock: "Ling Da hasn't woken up at this time, you can take you over when I wash up." ”
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay, I'll just take them over, you can continue to rest."
Wang Zining pushed Qiao Wen back into the room, and then left lightly.
"Mr. Xie, they didn't live together, Wen Wen had a room by himself, and Ling Da didn't get up in his room."
Xie Zhengyu smiled and looked at the rising sun in the distance.
"Wen Wen, your acting skills are still so clumsy."
