She opened the car door and sat in, fastened her seatbelt and asked, "Aren't you busy today?" ”

"Don't be busy, Wheat is going to his dad's." Han Jianing turned his head to look at her, "Hey, why don't we go have a drink?" ”

Tao Ting was stunned, smiled and said, "Okay." ”

Han Jianing raised his chin and pointed to the central control screen: "You pick a place, guide the way." ”

"Okay." Tao Ting tapped a few times on the screen and said, "There is one nearby, and the environment is very good." ”

Han Jianing stepped on the accelerator, held the steering wheel, and asked her, "Haven't you rested lately?" Look at you, you have heavy dark circles. ”

"Sort of." Tao Ting looked out the window at the flashing green belt, and tulips bloomed all over the roadside in Shencheng.

Passing by a row of shops, she was surprised to find that the café she used to frequented was closed and empty.

"When did that coffee shop close?" Tao Ting asked.

"You said the house around the corner?" Han Jianing said, "It's been closed for a few days, and when I passed by in the morning, I found that everything had been emptied. ”

Tao Ting remembered that she had added her boss's WeChat, and she took out her mobile phone to search for the name of the store, and found that there was only one message left in his circle of friends, which began with the words "Wangpu sublease ......".

This feeling of saying no and disappearing makes people feel breathless, Tao Ting put down her phone, and knew that she would go to eat their matcha Basque again.

The tavern was still warm and lively, and Tao Ting sat down by the window, secretly glad that it was still in business.

Han Jianing looked at the menu and asked, "What's delicious?" You recommend the recommendation. ”

"Their craft brews are very good, and you can try the special blend if you want."

"Do you get drunk easily?"

Tao Ting smiled and said, "It's okay if you don't drink too fast." ”

The two of them each ordered a cup of tequila sunrise, Han Jianing took a sip with a straw, frowned and said, "The smell of alcohol is a bit strong." ”

Tao Ting told her: "You drink slowly." ”

When Han Jianing raised her eyes, she found that she had already drunk half a cup, and said, "You have to slow down." ”

It was impossible for her not to see something during this time, just like when the two of them were first together, she was sensitive to the ambiguity.

She was all too familiar with it, and she had been through all these processes.

"You and Leon, quarreled?"

Tao Ting shook her head: "It's not counted." ”

"That's it, I used to chase him, we were always on the same road, and now we are both standing at a crossroads at the same time, I want to go left, he wants to go right, I don't want to listen to him, but he won't follow me." Her mind was so chaotic that Tao Ting didn't know if she had made it clear, she looked at the person across the table and asked, "Can you understand?" ”

Han Jianing nodded, she understood too well, but she didn't know what to do, she didn't find a solution to this problem, she could only be silent.

A cup of agave sunrise was quickly drunk, Tao Ting didn't think it was enough, and ordered another cup of "painkiller".

She wanted to see if the wine could stop the pain.

"It's a terrible feeling that you love him, but he can't make you feel happy anymore." Han Jianing's cheeks flushed under the influence of alcohol, and she opened her mouth lightly, "Tao Ting, to be honest, I hope you and Leon are okay, and I hope you can find an answer." If you can be good, maybe I will have a chance to correct my mistakes. ”

As she left the tavern, Tao Ting glanced at the time, which was less than four hours before her thirtieth birthday.

In fact, she really wanted to take a gamble to see if Xu Linyue would take the initiative to come to her tomorrow.

But after pouring down a glass of wine today, Tao Ting didn't plan to come out soberly, she needed something to push her.

Han Jianing called the substitute driver to leave first, Tao Ting was not drunk, and her consciousness was very clear, but she wanted to play drunk again.

She was already standing downstairs in her apartment when she dialed the phone, and she looked up and counted the floors, counting them twice, making sure the lights were on.

"Hey."

The moment she heard Xu Linyue's voice, Tao Ting's eyes immediately turned red, they hadn't spoken for too long.

She pretended to be calm and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

"I haven't finished the Lego set last time, but today I turned it out and wanted to finish it."

"Just build Lego at home?"

"That's right."

"Why does it sound so pathetic?"

"So what can be done? My girlfriend ignored me again. ”

"Oh." Tao Ting said, "It's hanging." ”

Before Xu Linyue could say anything more, he heard a "beep" sound, he took down the mobile phone in his ear, and after being stunned for two seconds, he pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled.

It sounded like he had drunk, he got up from the carpet with the coffee table, put the parts at hand back into the box, and sent a message to ask Li Xie at the same time: Is Tao Ting drinking with you?

A few minutes later, Li Xie replied: No.

As soon as Xu Linyue frowned, he heard the doorbell ring.

A ding-dong knock left his mind blank, and he walked over and opened the door on instinct.

"Sauce sauce~" Tao Ting opened her arms and said with a bright smile, "My girlfriend is here!" ”

Xu Linyue looked at her, and it took a long time for her brain to react, but her body stepped forward to catch her hug as soon as possible.

Tao Ting's cheeks were warm, Xu Linyue rubbed it, and asked, "Went drinking?" ”

"Hmm." His arm was too hard, Tao Ting felt that she couldn't breathe, but she was reluctant to push him away at this moment, she patted Xu Linyue's back, "And Han Jianing, we had a drink." ”

Xu Linyue said: "I see that you haven't drunk less." ”

Tao Ting laughed heartlessly: "Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to come." ”

"Why don't you dare?"

Xu Linyue held her face: "I'm afraid you won't come." ”

"How is that possible?"

Tao Ting walked into the house, saw the bricks scattered on the coffee table in the living room, and turned around and asked, "Are you really building Lego?" ”

"That's right."

There was a large bouquet of red roses on the sofa, Tao Ting stopped and didn't walk over again.

"Who sent it?" She asked.

Xu Linyue said: "I sent it." ”

"To whom?"

"I'll give it to you."

Tao Ting turned to look at Xu Linyue, he opened the refrigerator door, took out the cake box inside, and said, "I thought I would look for you later, but I didn't expect you to come first." ”

"I knew it." Tao Ting muttered to herself.

Xu Linyue didn't hear clearly: "What? ”

Tao Ting shook her head, walked up and threw herself into his arms.

Xu Linyue gently wrapped his arms around her and asked, "Don't you get angry with me?" ”

"Actually, I understand everything, but I can't control my emotions, I'm not as good as you."

"Nope." Xu Linyue said, "You are better than me, you didn't beat me." ”

Tao Ting raised her head: "What hit you?" ”

Xu Linyue smiled and didn't speak, lowered his head and kissed her.

It's been a long time since they've seen each other, and now they're close to each other again, and every touch and lick is extraordinarily throbbing, and this strangeness is a little strange but engraved in the bones fascinates them.

No matter how good you are, you can't kiss enough, like a person who walks in the desert for several days, and is desperate for water, and a little more effort is enough.

It was a terrible feeling to hear the iPhone's built-in alarm when she was on the verge of high tide, and Tao Ting opened her eyes suddenly, and her heart trembled at the rapid beat of the drum.

"What?"

Xu Linyue reached for the mobile phone on the bedside table, smiled at the corner of his lips, and said, "The alarm clock I set is still one minute." ”

The death bell finally stopped, and Tao Ting lay back down: "I was almost scared by you." ”

"Really?" Xu Linyue leaned over and counted a second at a time.

"Thirty, twenty-nine......"

Tao Ting's breathing tightened and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Three, two, one......"

Tao Ting bit her lower lip and closed her eyes, curled up and pressed her forehead against his shoulder.

Xu Linyue tilted his head and kissed her ear and said, "Happy birthday, thirty years old." ”

Tao Ting's chest rose and fell violently, leaning on his shoulder to calm her breathing.

"There's something I want to tell you."

"Huh?"

"Forget it." Xu Linyue kissed her on the forehead, "Let's talk about it when it's confirmed." ”

The brain unconsciously let go, Tao Ting responded, and didn't rest assured.

Chapter 78

Xu Linyue was the first to tell Han Jianing about his intention to resign, and the two of them quarreled in the office for more than an hour, and Han Jianing was basically talking, just like every dispute between the two of them in the past few years.

In the past, Xu Linyue always listened quietly first, waited for Han Jianing to say all her thoughts, and then slowly affirmed her or refuted her one by one, and finally the two sides compromised and reached a reconciliation situation.

Today he didn't, he was just silent, and then said: "You left Huali because you still have unfulfilled ideals, and I don't have them." ”

Adults are busy, but they are just busy making a living.

Han Jianing didn't say anything about this, she just looked at Xu Linyue, her eyebrows frowning slightly, and her eyes were a little worried like she had never been before.

"You've been so tired lately." Han Jianing said.
