2 Second night
Lu Xunzhi's gaze stayed on Ji He's face for a moment and then retracted, not caring why she had such a big reaction.
Pulling open the chair across from him and sitting down, he flipped through the menu when he saw that there was nothing on the table.
"Teacher Ji has any taboo dishes? Or do you want to eat? ”
Ji He withdrew from the emotions of a hundred turns, she smoothed her breathing, pursed her lips and smiled, "I can do it." ”
Her hands were still trembling slightly in her thighs.
Lu Xunzhi raised his hand, and the male waiter standing next to him immediately walked over.
Although Ji He can say anything, Lu Xunzhi will politely ask her opinion every time he orders a dish, how can she have any opinions, just nodding.
While Lu Xunzhi was talking to the waiter, she looked at Lu Xunzhi seriously, this face was the same as in her memory, especially the gaze that was always indifferent and cold when looking at people.
He shouldn't remember her.
The eighteenth change in the female college is not to mention that Ji He in high school always wears a pair of big black-framed glasses.
Looking back, she and Lu Xunzhi intersected no more than five times, and she could not be impressed at all with a very weak sense of presence at that time.
For example, at the high school reunion the year before last, the class president said that no one could be missed, but she didn't make it because she went to study in other places, and no one found out that she was missing.
And how can Lu Xunzhi, who has not seen her for ten years, recognize her at a glance?
He came today, she guessed, he was forced to come, right?
A man like him can't be short of people's likes.
I still remember that in Lu Xunzhi's junior year of high school, he was a high-profile show of love by a girl in the same grade as him, and what Ji He knew was that the party Lu Xunzhi did not accept the other party, but I heard that the girl did not give up pursuing him after graduation.
"That's all." Lu Xunzhi finalized a few light and delicious dishes, and when he turned his eyes, he found that Ji He was staring at him.
The waiter asked, "Do you need dessert after dinner?" ”
Lu Xunzhi looked over with a smile instead of a smile: "Does Teacher Ji need it?" ”
Ji He looked at the gaze, panicked, she quickly retracted her gaze, her cheeks were hot and she laughed, "No need, thank you." ”
As soon as the waiter left, everything seemed to be quiet.
This restaurant is one of the most upscale restaurants in Beijing, and the guests who come here will consciously maintain a good quality and never speak too loudly.
Lu Xun's hand stopped on the wall of the glass carelessly, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Teacher Ji, I don't have a thorough understanding of your situation, can you tell me more about it?" ”
Ji He put away the surprise in his heart and said softly: "Okay." ”
In fact, she didn't know what to say, but she also said whatever she thought, talked about her work and family situation, and after graduation, she entered the middle school, divorced with Ms. and Director Ji, and got back together a few years ago, she had a stepfather for a short time, and her younger brother Ji Shu was at the university in Shanghai.
Lu Xunzhi didn't take the initiative to talk about his situation, it was she who racked her brains and asked him a few questions, and he answered more concisely, as if he didn't want people to understand it deeply.
As soon as the dish was served, the scene fell into a state of silence.
Until the end of this meal, Lu Xunzhi took the initiative to pay the bill, and the two went out together.
Ji He looked down at his shoes, his eyes quietly moved to the side, and when he saw Lu Xunzhi's shadow, his heart was like a drum for a moment, and he still felt so unreal.
When I was young, the people in my dreams would actually meet ten years later and appear on unexpected occasions.
Lu Xunzhi caught a glimpse of Ji He looking at his shadow, thinking of the way she looked at him directly when he first came, he didn't feel offended, but felt funny, "I didn't drive today-"
Before he could finish speaking, the phone rang.
He glanced at the caller, "Wait a minute, I'll answer the phone." ”
Ji He nodded, his eyes following him.
She couldn't figure out Lu Xunzhi's attitude, he didn't seem to attach much importance to this meeting, but he took the initiative to ask about her situation.
I guess I don't want to embarrass her.
"Well, come pick me up." Lu Xunzhi hung up the phone, raised his eyes, and the woman under the thin moonlight was looking at him with a smile on her lips.
The autumn evening breeze is blowing, and the slightest coolness is blowing in the face.
He paused for no reason, and stepped back to Ji He's side, his eyes were slightly lowered, and his gaze happened to fall on her rosy and full lips, "Where does Teacher Ji live?" I'll have you sent back. ”
Ji He slowly put away his smile, shook his head and refused, "I don't live far away, don't bother." ”
Lu Xunzhi glanced at her, and didn't force it anymore, he had exhausted the gentlemanly demeanor he should have, "Goodbye." ”
After saying that, he turned around.
Ji He's whole person froze in place, watching the tall figure go farther and farther until he couldn't see it, and his heart collapsed heavily, this feeling of sullenness and pain seemed familiar to her.
I remember that there is an answer on Baidu that says that if the other party is satisfied with you, he will definitely offer to call or make a direct appointment with the next meeting place.
Obviously, Lu Xunzhi didn't want to continue to meet her.
Also, Ji He knew ten years ago that a person like Lu Xunzhi, who was born at the top of the pyramid, was an unattainable heaven and moon for her.
He can come, and he has already given enough face.
Although it's a pity and a sad thing, it doesn't matter, as long as it's not a major matter of life and death, everything is just an inconsequential little thing, you have to look away and stay optimistic.
After comforting herself, she looked up at the deep blue night sky, smiled, and walked in the other direction.
-
After returning home and washing, Ji He hugged the big orange nest into the hanging chair, and she considered the wording before dialing the phone number of the lady.
"How?" As soon as it was connected, Ms. Sui asked.
"There's no plan for the next step, it's not suitable." She said.
Ms. Sui's voice was raised, "I am really angry when you hear this, what is called inappropriate, isn't his family just a little rich?" What's wrong with your condition? The appearance is not bad, graduated from a master's degree in A University, let me ask which teacher who went to Beijing to teach is an ordinary person? ”
Ji He frowned very lightly, and she didn't say bluntly that Lu Xunzhi didn't take a fancy to her, and it was a little inexplicable with the lady's temper.
She tried to slow down her tone, "Mom, his family is not 'a little rich', but very rich and ...... Let me tell you this, his family has a red background, Lu Zhengyan is his grandfather, Lu Hongjing is his father, I don't need to introduce it, you can know who it is when you usually watch the news, his mother is Jiang Shan, the president of Qingsheng Bank. ”
Ms. Sui was stunned after hearing this, turned on the lamp and sat up from the bed, thought about it, and her arrogance weakened a lot, "Your aunt didn't tell me, how do you know so clearly?" ”
Da Tang changed her sleeping position on Ji He's lap, she touched the fluffy cat's head, and whispered, "Didn't you ask me to ask myself?" ”
"Okay, our family can't afford to climb high, I'll talk to your aunt about it, I'm really curious about what you and her say about moving people." Ms. Sui said, "Don't go out and hang around for the remaining two days of vacation, try to come back to the house for dinner, hang up." ”
Ji He put his phone aside, leaned over and rubbed Da Tang's soft body with his face.
I haven't been able to meet in the same city for so many years, and now it's a great miracle to see each other.
Don't think about what you shouldn't.
Ten minutes later.
Ji He took the cat aside, picked up his mobile phone and went into the house to start preparing for class.
Da Tang stared at her back, the door closed with a "clang", and it turned its head and licked the place where Ji He had rubbed it, it was wet.
"Meow."
The shovel officer was crying just now.
-
The next day, the aunt was summoned to the beauty salon by a phone call from Ms. Sui.
Sitting in Ms. Sui's office and listening to her say something about her head and face, the aunt took a leisurely sip of tea before saying, "What does it matter, I don't say it, it's not that I'm afraid that you won't even give them a chance to meet." ”
Ms. Sui looked at her sister unhappily, "How old are you, please be realistic." ”
The aunt smiled and said, "I don't think that if the two young people look at each other, they don't care about their family background at all?" ”
Ms. Sui frowned, and the pen between her fingertips tapped the countertop: "Tell me, what kind of deception are you, so people agreed to let you mess around like this." ”
"Sister, you misunderstood me," the aunt smiled from ear to ear, "It was my friend who fell in love with Ji He at a glance, saying that our Ji He had a good face, and asked me for her birthday, you also know how superstitious these people who go to burn incense and worship Buddha every day are superstitious, and people don't care about what you scruple about at all." Besides, our family Ji He is young and beautiful, my brother-in-law is still the director, how many contributions have you made when you were young, your beauty salon has opened more than a dozen branches in our Beijing one after another, and it is really not enough to say that Gao Pan, but it is really no fate, alas, I still want to experience what it is like to have a big in-laws. ”
The aunt said that her saliva was dry and she didn't see Ms. Sui squeak, she walked over and knocked on the office counter a few times, "She is also twenty-five this year, so she can still pick while she is young, let her find it herself." ”
Ms. Sui whispered: "What do you say, just her stuffy gourd, what kind of one can you find by yourself?" ”
"People are quiet and introverted, you want to say that you are a stuffy gourd."
...
At the end of the holiday, Ji He got up early in the morning, washed up and put on makeup, and arrived at the school before half past seven.
After two classes of Chinese classes in the morning, Ji He sat on the chair and exhaled softly.
Sure enough, if you have too long a holiday, it will be like a death to go to work again.
Glancing at the two piles of homework on the table, she sat up straight in resignation, picked up the pen and began to correct.
"Teacher Ji, where did you go on the National Day?"
Ji He raised his eyes when he heard the sound, looked at the smiling man opposite, this is Teacher Zhong, who teaches physical education in the grade, and replied: "I went to Guangzhou." ”
"There are a lot of fun and delicious things in Guangzhou, climb the Canton Tower to cruise the Pearl River at night, eat rice rolls, drink boat porridge, and what kind of cured pork knuckle rice...... If you don't say anything, your mouth will water. Teacher Zhong said with a smile.
Ji Hewaner: "The shrimp roasted wheat is also very good, Mr. Zhong can go over to play during the holidays." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, an extremely serious voice sounded at the door.
"Teacher Luo, come to my office."
Teacher Luo, who was named by the director of the Political and Educational Office, is the head teacher of the second (fifth) class of junior high school, although there are many students with excellent grades in this school, but there are more students who come in with family backgrounds, and there are several rich and powerful and naughty students in the fifth class.
Teacher Zhong looked at Teacher Luo who went out in despair rather sympathetically, shook his head and sighed, "This little Teacher Luo is really not easy." ”
"Is something happening to Class 5?" Ji He took the opportunity to ask.
Teacher Zhong said: "Huo Jinghang, who is in the fifth class, came to school in the morning holding hands with the little girl in the class, and was just caught by Director Qi. Unexpectedly, the three good students are all in early love. ”
Ji He nodded and didn't say much, this early love is not a trivial matter, it is estimated that the parents will have to be brought to the school.
At 6 p.m., the entire language group concluded its meeting in the conference room on the fifth floor.
Ji He helped turn off the projector before going downstairs, the office was on the second floor, the fourth floor was the office of the principal and vice principal, and the third floor was the political and educational office.
"Huo Jinghang, do you want to make irresponsible remarks to me, and you still want to be a hero and take responsibility? You both wash me in the toilet for a week, and how long do your parents have to wait for me? ”
Then a very young voice came: "It's coming soon." Director Qi, I want to do it, I forced her, it's really none of her business. ”
"What about Sisi?"
“...... I forced Miao Si to hold hands with me. ”
A sweet voice then sounded: "No, no, no, I volunteered!" ”
Ji He shook his head helplessly and smiled and bent his eyes.
Sure enough, blind love knows no age.
At six o'clock in the evening, the sun sets, and the afterglow envelops the entire academic building.
Lu Xunzhi stepped onto the stairwell platform, raised his eyes inadvertently, and saw the woman in the crimson glow, her eyes shining particularly brightly under the light circle.
At the same time, Ji He also saw Lu Xunzhi, her expression management was almost not done well, she suppressed her heartbeat that was almost jumping out of her throat, and forcibly maintained the smile on her face.
"Hello." She said.
"Hello." He replied.
No more words.
Except for that night, they were strangers.
As soon as he went up and down, the moment he passed by, Lu Xunzhi smelled a light sweet fragrance that made people feel very comfortable.
He subconsciously turned his head, but he didn't expect Ji He to walk so fast, so fast that it only left him with a smell that slowly dissipated.
Ji He stopped after going down to the second floor, turned his head to look at the stairs, and heard Huo Jinghang shouting 'brother', and after shouting, he actually introduced this to Miao Si that this was his brother, so angry that Lu Xunzhi scolded him to shut up.
She was quite surprised, she had heard that Huo Jinghang's family background was not simple, but she didn't expect that it would be Lu Xunzhi's relative.
It was already dark when he came out of the political and religious office, and Lu Xunzhi walked last, staring coldly at Huo Jinghang, who was walking behind the girl in front of him.
If you are a big fart, you can learn to fall in love, can you understand it?
Forget about talking, it's still above board, I'm really not afraid of the old man's crutch beating, right?
Out of the school gate, Huo Jinghang couldn't wait to run to Miao Si's side, Lu Xunzhi held the car door and waited for a long time without seeing him coming, and there was a faint impatience between his eyebrows.
He said in a deep voice: "Huo Jinghang, come here." ”
Miao Si was startled by this voice, touched his little heart and shrank towards Huo Jinghang, and whispered about Huo Jinghang's brother why he was so handsome!
Sure enough, it's still her gentle Ah Hang who likes people.
Huo Jinghang was also quite stunned by Lu Xunzhi, he didn't dare to say more, and patted Miao Si's shoulder, "I'll call you when I go back." ”
Miao Si looked at him reluctantly, and said in a sweet voice: "Wash the toilet, wash the toilet, let's not separate." ”
Lu Xunzhi bit his back molars and swept his gaze.
The two little boys were fined for washing the toilet and writing a 5,000-word review.
It really deserves.
Huo Jinghang rubbed Miao Si's head and said gently: "Don't separate, never separate, you get in the car quickly, I'll go back too." ”
In Lu Xun's sharp gaze, the two of them were reluctant to separate, making him look like a sinner beating a mandarin duck.
After getting into the car, Huo Jinghang looked at the rearview mirror.
Lu Xun stepped on the accelerator and quickly threw off the car behind him.
"Does your mother know that you are a little girl at school?"
No wonder he had to come to school at all.
Huo Jinghang looked serious: "Brother, we are in a normal relationship." ”
Lu Xunzhi sneered, and hit the steering wheel with one hand: "Yes, then you can give me a normal point, don't have any physical contact before you are an adult, if you do something you shouldn't do, you just wait to squat." ”
"......," Huo Jinghang said, "I know, I just couldn't help but pull her hand today." ”
Lu Xunzhi saw that the little young master was blushing and his neck was red, and he deliberately teased, "It's over, I don't believe you." ”
Huo Jinghang made a straight face: "Brother, you don't understand this feeling at all, because you haven't been in love, if you do, you can definitely understand my situation." ”
"What's your situation?" Lu Xunzhi couldn't help laughing, "In the second year of Xiaoshengchu, I haven't made a few papers, and I can't do without falling in love?" I haven't been in a relationship yet, haven't I eaten pork and never seen a pig run? ”
Huo Jinghang knew that he couldn't talk about his brother, so he turned his face away angrily, "You can just talk about a girlfriend, anyway, I won't break up with Sisi." ”
Lu Xunzhi was too lazy to argue with a little kid, and the car drove to the door of the Huo family's villa and turned around and left.
In the past few days, he has been so busy with the affairs of Huairou that he has not slept well, and he has to go to Shanghai early tomorrow morning.
Not long after leaving the villa area, Huo Jinghang's mother called, but instead of caring about her son, she asked about him.
"What more would you like in the future? Didn't I explain it to you that night? ”
Aunt Lu said: "If you meet a few times, you may feel it, my aunt is not forcing you, if Hanghang is your age, how can the girl get your turn." ”
A slight smile escaped from Lu Xunzhi's nose, "Listen to what you mean, dare to love me is the helpless choice, right?" ”
"Oh, don't give me a gag, is it easy for you to aunt me, I just want to see you have a good home before being killed by Hanghang."
Lu Xunzhi raised his eyebrows: "Do you know about Hanghang?" ”
Aunt Lu sneered: "I am friends with Miao Sima, can I not know?" ”
"Then you don't care, I'll send you the old man's crutches later?"
"Don't divert the topic," Aunt Lu threatened, "You hurry up and ask the girl out this weekend, anyway, I told my friend that you would make another appointment, if you don't want to, where will I put my face." ”
The latter words were naturally nonsense by Aunt Lu, and she didn't communicate with her nephew beforehand, how dare she cut it first and then play it.
Lu Xunzhi laughed casually: "You're planning to buy and sell by force, right?" ”
Aunt Lu smiled and sighed: "Your grandfather doesn't say it on his face, but you definitely don't know how much he wants you to stay in Beijing steadily, I said that you can't settle down, don't come back for a while and run out, the old man's health is not very good, and you have to worry about whether you are doing well outside." ”
After ending the call with Aunt Lu, Lu Xunzhi received a video of his grandmother who was far away in Xiamen.
...
Ji He had just finished eating from home when he received Lu Xunzhi's call and was about to take the subway back to his small home.
She didn't go too far to remember this number, but inexplicably, she knew who the other party was at a glance.
Before she was connected, she ran from the noisy subway entrance to the quieter newsstand opposite, gasped for breath, and let her voice sound smooth before sliding off the screen.
The person on the other end of the earpiece didn't have any extra polite words, and only went straight to the point to explain the purpose of this phone call, "Teacher Ji, do you have time to eat together this weekend?" ”
The man's voice is deep and cold, and he can't hear more emotions.
