Chapter 197: Empty

After Ren Yu's words were finished, Xu Yuechong was obviously dissatisfied, "I mean, tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, how do you plan to spend it?" ”

Ren Yu turned his head to look at him, with a little puzzlement in his eyes.

Xu Yuechong looked at her for a while, and then replied, "It just so happens that I am also alone, why don't we just spend it together?" ”

"Do you eat dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve?"

……

The Spring Festival is the most important festival for people in China.

Even in recent years, everyone is saying that the taste of the New Year is getting weaker and weaker, but people's emotions on this festival have not changed, and no festival can replace its place in people's hearts.

Paste Spring Festival couplets and reunion dinners.

It is a farewell to the past and an expectation for the new year.

Meng Yanzhou also did this kind of thing when he was a child - when his father was still there.

But then, he never did it again.

The words reunion dinner are more like jokes in his heart.

Now, he can't remember what he was feeling at that time.

By this time, most of the people who worked hard in the city had also left, so even the city, which seemed to never know its tiredness, was visibly deserted.

Meng Yanzhou still works as usual.

- The work in country F is still advancing, and they don't have any Spring Festival holidays.

But the person in charge over there was very understanding, and said Happy New Year to Meng Yanzhou after the meeting.

Listening to that non-standard and familiar sentence, Meng Yanzhou finally laughed and replied again, "Happy New Year." ”

The video hangs up.

Meng Yanzhou also slowly walked to the floor-to-ceiling window by himself.

From his point of view, he could see the city.

There was still a constant flow of traffic on the streets, and the streetlights and neon signs on the side of the road were still on.

But Meng Yanzhou still felt extremely lonely.

That kind of loneliness existed in this empty office, eroding towards him little by little, seeping into his bones.

Meng Yanzhou's brows couldn't help but furrow.

Just then, his phone rang.

The sudden sound was like a hand, freeing him from the boundless silence.

So Meng Yanzhou didn't hesitate and picked up the phone directly.

"Hey."

"Mr. Meng, Happy New Year." The man over there said with a grin.

Meng Yanzhou didn't answer, but the frowning brow loosened little by little.

"I saved up a game, I wonder if Mr. Meng is interested in participating?"

"Okay."

Meng Yanzhou agreed quickly.

And even without hesitation.

The people over there were slightly stunned, but quickly laughed, "Okay, then I'll take it."

At the same time as the phone hung up, Meng Yanzhou also received the news.

He didn't hesitate and walked outside with his phone.

Chen Xiang is well-known in the circle for liking and playing.

He was an out-and-out gentleman before, but after getting close to Meng Yanzhou, several projects he invested in have achieved good results.

As a result, his father also relaxed his watchfulness a little.

Without constraints, Chen Xiang is now playing bigger and bigger.

At this time, as soon as Meng Yanzhou entered, his brows furrowed.

Chen Xiang was standing by the pool, holding a bottle of whiskey in his hand, pouring something into his mouth.

The person next to him reminded him twice, and he found Meng Yanzhou.

"Mr. Meng! It's an honor to be here! ”

Saying that, Chen Xiang also walked in front of him and grabbed Meng Yanzhou's hand, "How is it?" If you don't think it's good here, I've got a yacht for us to go there too. ”

"No need." Meng Yanzhou took a glass of wine and took a sip.

Chen Xiang looked at him, and then glanced at the person next to him.

The woman in the white bikini immediately walked over.

Chen Xiang whispered in Meng Yanzhou's ear, "This is Dandan, Mr. Meng, don't worry, she is still a college student and clean." ”

His words fell, and the woman also stood beside Meng Yanzhou, with a little irrepressible excitement in her flashing eyes, "Mr. Meng, I'll have a drink with you." ”

Meng Yanzhou's identity now is different from before, he just went to that station, and there were countless people who wanted to come over.

Women are certainly not willing to let go of such an opportunity.

As she spoke, she had already reached out to hold Meng Yanzhou's arm.

But his eyes quickly snapped.

The sharp look in her eyes made the woman's movements freeze in place for a moment.

She didn't dare to move, so she could only look at Chen Xiang next to her for help.

The latter quickly waved her hand to let her leave, and put his hand on Meng Yanzhou's shoulder, "It seems that Mr. Meng just wants to drink tonight." ”

Meng Yanzhou didn't say anything more, his eyes only looked at the undulating water surface of the pool, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After another glass of wine, Chen Xiang didn't bother him anymore.

Lively parties, deafening music in the ears, men and women raising their glasses, smiles on their faces.

Meng Yanzhou is also among them.

But there was no smile on his face.

When he was alone in the office just now, he thought it was because he was alone.

So as long as he goes to a lively place, it will be fine.

But now that there are so many people here, why does he still feel ...... Aloneness?

It's as if the heart has been hollowed out.

Meng Yanzhou was not interested in continuing any longer, and was about to leave as soon as he put the wine glass down.

But the next moment, he suddenly heard Xu Yuechong's name.

"What is he doing in Taicheng these two days? I asked his assistant and said he was handling the funeral? Aren't both his parents dead? ”

Meng Yanzhou's footsteps suddenly stopped.

"Who died?" He asked.

It was the first time he had spoken up tonight.

The person who was originally chatting next to him was startled by his voice, and only came back to his senses after a while, and quickly explained, "No one, let's talk casually." ”

"I said, Xu Yuechong went to Taicheng to deal with whose funeral?" Meng Yanzhou asked impatiently.

The other party was taken aback by his cold appearance, and after a pause, he replied, "We...... It's not very clear either. ”

Meng Yanzhou's brows suddenly furrowed.

"Otherwise, I'll have someone check ...... now"

"No need."

Meng Yanzhou directly interrupted the other party's words, and as if nothing had happened, he only raised his feet and continued to walk forward.

His steps were fast, as if he was afraid that if he slowed down, he would regret it.

Only two people were left in place, inexplicably.

Chen Xiang quickly noticed the situation here, and also took a few steps over, "What's the matter?" What did Mr. Meng tell you? ”

"I didn't say anything, I asked Xu Yuechong about his current situation."

Chen Xiang raised his eyebrows, "Xu Yuechong? Are they related? ”

"I don't know."

"No, what Mr. Meng cared about just now was, who did Xu Yuechong treat the funeral for?"

Chen Xiang instantly understood, but he only smiled and raised his wine glass, "Whatever, come, drink a bar." ”
