Secretary Chen not only liked it, but also commented.

Secretary Chen: Miss Shen, Happy New Year.

Shen Qiang replied politely: Thank you.

After that, I turned off my phone and concentrated on taking care of the child.

When he received the screenshot of Secretary Chen, Song Boli was holding an online meeting in the hotel.

He rarely has time for himself, and the occasional short respite will only make him busier in the future, last night's eight-hour drive, in order not to wake her to sleep, he can only pile up the work until the early hours of the morning, and he has not slept all night, and he has continued to hold meetings until now.

He looked down at his phone, raised his hand and interrupted the meeting.

Secretary Chen also attached two sentences: [Dong Song, Happy New Year, this is Miss Shen's circle of friends. 】

Article 2: [Lord and Mrs. are a little angry when they learn that you are on a business trip to Sioux City this year. The old lady doesn't know about this yet, and I guess I'll call you tonight. 】

Secretary Chen has been by his side for so many years, and this is the first time he has forwarded Shen Qiang's circle of friends to him.

For many years, Secretary Chen has also learned Song Boli's clear distinction between public and private, and she has no details in official affairs, but in private affairs, Secretary Chen rarely reveals anything, including his WeChat account of Shen Qiang.

He would never use Shen Qiang's matter to win Song Boli's attention.

But there is only one reason why Secretary Chen is doing this today

- He wants Soong to make a choice between Sioux City and Port City.

He was trained by his secretary when Song Boli was a child, and the Song family said that he needed to remind Song Boli to return to his mind at a critical moment.

But Song Boli's eyes were on Shen Qiang's circle of friends with the text.

- Actually, I also want to see fireworks, when will Sioux City be able to fireworks free TvT

When Secretary Chen received Song Boli's call, his heart trembled.

When listening to what Song Boli said, Secretary Chen knew that in the past, as long as it was between the Song family and Miss Shen, Song Dong would not hesitate to choose the Song family, but at this moment, it seems that Song Dong's heart, which is as hard as steel, also has a time when Miss Shen turns into a finger twister.

In the silent tug of war between Sioux City and Port City, this person from Sioux City only used the four words "want to see fireworks" to win them all.

-

It was already eight or nine o'clock in the evening after the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

Shen Qiang wrapped a red envelope for He Zicheng, and after the little guy got the red envelope, he jumped up and down excitedly in place.

Aunt Luo and Zhuang Fangjie were chatting, while Aunt Luo's wife went downstairs for a walk, and her son and daughter-in-law took He Zicheng out for a walk.

Shen Qiang looked at the smile on Zhuang Fangjie's face, her heart was full but empty.

After she finished cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, she walked back to her bedroom, closed the computer that He Zicheng had finished reading, and she picked up her mobile phone and prepared to reply to everyone's group wishes for a happy new year one by one. Just replied a few, and a phone call popped up.

Although there are no notes, this number is already familiar by heart.

She shuddered, inexplicably remembering how he stood in the snow last night and smoked, she didn't know what he was calling for, she didn't answer.

But in the next second, the phone received a text message.

Song Boli: [Look out the window.] 】

She subconsciously looked out the window, and there was nothing but the night.

Puzzled, she walked out of the window and lowered her eyes.

Song Boli stood in the wide open space of the community, dressed in casual clothes, which made him more and more extravagant, he raised his eyes to look at her, accurately found her location, and beckoned to her.

Hundreds of boxes of fireworks behind him were neatly arranged, enough for dawn and grand enough.

In the next second, the fireworks behind him lit up with a spark.

Before Shen Qiang could react, more than a dozen boxes of fireworks rose into the air together, and then at the top, they exploded with a bang, illuminating the entire Sioux City, so grand and so beautiful.

The fireworks in the dark night are particularly dazzling, and people's mood is especially exciting as the fireworks rise into the sky and bloom.

The phone in Shen Qiang's hand rang again, and it was still him.

Looking at the brilliant fireworks outside the window, although it was beautiful, Shen Qiang suddenly reacted - Su Cheng couldn't set off fireworks.

Violators will be fined at least and will be allowed to eat and lodging.

Her heart sank, and she didn't hesitate to take the phone.

Said: "Don't let it go, you can't set off fireworks in Sioux City, it's illegal." ”

I didn't expect her first sentence to be this.

The corners of Song Boli's mouth hooked, and he chuckled: "Don't worry, I will say hello in the afternoon, and I approve it this year." ”

Finally, he asked, "Did you just care about me?" ”

Shen Qiang's hanging heart was put down, and when she heard him say this, she instantly felt that her reaction just now was a little too excited.

She held the phone for a moment, didn't answer him, and said, "If it's okay, I'll hang up." ”

"Wait." Song Boli stopped her from hanging up the phone.

Another loud bang. attracted Shen Qiang to raise her eyes to look at the sky, and brilliant fireworks bloomed.

She hadn't seen fireworks in Sioux City in years, and not only her, but everyone in the neighborhood was standing at the glass window and looking up at the sky.

No one looked at Song Boli, who was setting off fireworks on the ground.

Including her, too, she looked at the sky and he looked at her.

"Shen Qiang, are the fireworks good-looking?" Song Boli said, "Give it to you." ”

The fireworks are certainly beautiful, and her pupils are full of the reflection of the fireworks.

But Shen Qiang didn't answer, she knew that he didn't want to ask this.

She said, "You asked me to wait, did you want to ask me this?" ”

"Of course not," sensing her impatience to hang up the phone, Song Boli sighed helplessly: "I just want to wish you a happy New Year." ”

"I want to apologize to you."

Shen Qiang's hand holding the phone tightened, and said, "What apologies?" ”

"Apologize for your previous neglect, apologize for being high and self-righteous," Song Boli paused, took the initiative to mention the forbidden areas that could not be mentioned, and said: "I really didn't touch you that night, but I really didn't respect you." ”

"Actually, I know that even if I don't do anything, you will still be angry." Song Boli looked at the shadow by the window, laughed at herself, and pierced her thoughts with insight and unreservedness: "Because that person is me, as long as it is me, no matter what I do, I am wrong." ”

Shen Qiang opened her mouth, in fact, she had thought about this question as early as when she came back from his car.

If it was Yu Jian who sent her back, she would sit down generously without saying a word.

But after becoming Song Boli, she was not so refreshing, and she was a little more twisted.

And that night too, if Song Boli just took her home and didn't do anything. She would be just as angry when she woke up the next day.

But if it was someone else, she would definitely not be so excited, and the sword would go off the rails.

As long as it involves him, she can't treat it from an objective point of view.

Shen Qiang didn't speak, but there were still ripples in her heart.

"It's all my fault, and it's all my doing."

Song Boli stood on the empty ground, letting the fireworks in the sky burst into flames.

He said to himself: "Didn't you ask me what I was angry about yesterday? ”

"I'm angry with myself, angry at my self-esteem, and even more angry at my self-thinking that I pushed you farther and farther, made you lose trust in me, and finally ended up with friends who didn't have a proper end."

Song Boli was silent for a few seconds, sighed softly, and finally said the words from the bottom of his heart: "I hope you can understand that the first time I was good to a person, there may be something wrong, but I have never had a moment to despise your thoughts." ”

The fireworks continued to be set off, and Shen Qiang's pupils took in all the beautiful scenery.

The phone was close to her ear, and the words he said in her ear entered her ear, and every word entered her ear, she lowered her eyes to look at him, only to find that the snow had fallen on his shoulders, and his feet had stepped into the thick snow, it was very cold outside, the wind was very strong, and he didn't even frown.

From the time they met to the present, you have chased after each other, whether it is a business or a private matter, there has never been a perfect ending.

He sent her home, all the way through the wind and snow, and she drove away before the porridge was finished, and he was not angry.

To relieve her of the future career path that was bothering her heart, he did not make a choice for her from above, but stood on the path she wanted to take, telling her that people only live for a lifetime and live for themselves.

When I saw the highway fee and refueling fee alone, my emotions were a little unbearable.

In his case, it may be that she has converted his good into money and returned it to him.

But when the emotions reached the top, it was only the words that humbly asked her.

She had a different feeling for him who was so stubborn.

Shen Qiang didn't understand, and said in a low voice, "What do you want to say to me." ”

"I want to settle my old suspicions with you."

He regretted it a little when he said it.

These four words are too simple, how can you forget the past all at once? And he didn't do it well enough.

Song Boli lowered his eyes, looking at the snow that was thick on his calves, his limbs were a little stiff from the cold, he paused, and changed his words: "Can you treat me as an ordinary friend, don't refuse my kindness to you, don't resist me so much." ”

"What I want, that's all."

Shen Qiang is indeed resistant to him, she has always used resistance to protect herself, he is a quagmire, and he can easily let her fall into it.

He took great pains to break the rule that Su City couldn't set off fireworks for so many years, and said hello with a simple sentence, but in fact, she didn't know what price and money she had to pay.

He used a firework in exchange for the possibility of her being a friend.

The smoke grows endlessly, and Sioux City is exceptionally bright tonight, breaking the silence of the past few years.

The people of the whole city were recording the gift that Song Boli gave to Shen Qiang.

She was the only one who stood still.

He stood in the snow, comforted himself, and said, "It's okay. ”

"Happy New Year, Shen Qiang."

He was humble, smiled distressingly, and said, "It's that I've not done enough." ”

She wanted to see the fireworks, and he used the relationship up and down all afternoon.

fulfilled her dream.
