Chapter 181: It's Better Than Love

When she got off work, Yu Xiyao waited beside Chi Mucheng's car.

Watching Chi Mucheng approach him from a distance, Yu Xiyao felt like her heart was out of control, as if his every step was on the node of her heartbeat, which caused a strong resonance.

He was wearing a white shirt as always, a light khaki trench coat in his hand, his delicate facial features were like a masterpiece of ghostly craftsmanship, and his otherworldly temperament was innate, as if he was a dustless fairy. Every move is heartwarming.

"Senior." Yu Xiyao pressed the thoughts in her heart and stopped him with a smile.

"Looking for me?" Chi Mucheng opened the car door and was about to get into the car, when he heard someone calling him, he saw Yu Xiyao waiting here for some time.

Yu Xiyao nodded, "Hmm." ”

In fact, she wanted to say if she wanted to find a place to sit down and talk, but the look that Chi Mucheng gave her was: Say it quickly, it's best to make a long story short.

"Huh? If you haven't figured it out yet, why don't you change the day? Chi Mucheng waited for two seconds, she didn't start, her expression was full of impatience, he raised his hand to look at the time on his watch, his eyes were mixed with a faint arrogance. Yu Xia is about to get off work, and he doesn't have the time to spend with others.

"It's not. I just wanted to say that next month is my birthday, and I hope that my senior and sister will come to my birthday party. Yu Xiyao spoke generously, and her gentle and atmospheric attitude almost made it impossible to find fault.

But who is Ji Mucheng?

He narrowed his eyes, his ink-colored pupils deep and deep, "If it's just this matter, you can go and tell Yu Xia." If she needs me to accompany her, I'll go. ”

Once, at that party in a foreign country, she heard his voice, and it felt like a clear spring, with the echo of the beating valley, flowing to the world of birds and flowers, low and pleasant, like the sound of heaven.

But at this moment, it was obviously the same voice, but she felt like a deep midnight, enveloped in endless darkness, with a full sense of oppression and deterrence. Let her obviously want to get closer, but involuntarily quietly retreat and pull away.

She felt that because of the growth of age, Chi Mucheng's aura became stronger.

So he mustered up the courage and hooked his lips again, "I want to introduce Yu Xia to everyone at the banquet, so that everyone knows that I also have a sister." What do seniors think? ”

Chi Mucheng seemed to be thinking for a moment, but smiled meaninglessly, "You should discuss this matter with Yu Xia." ”

"But my sister doesn't want to."

Chi Mucheng was not surprised, "I respect what she meant. "He showed his attitude.

"Can the senior persuade her? After all, our family hopes that my sister can return home, and my father bought all the Wansheng plans for her, and even transferred his most important right and left hand, Qin Fan, to Wansheng to take charge, just because I was afraid that my sister would be wronged at work. I heard that my sister was almost fired from the company before, and she was also required to deal with very disgusting customers, if everyone knew that my sister was the eldest lady of the Yu family, she would not have to suffer so much at work in the future. Yu Xi Yaoxiao said with reason and emotion.

Chi Mucheng looked at the time again, his thin lips pursed, "I believe that Yu Xia can handle the things at work with ease." Yu Dong's acquisition of Wansheng Planning is just icing on the cake for Yu Xia, not a send-off. ”

"Yu Xia doesn't need any daughter's status to bless her, whether she wants to be the daughter of the Yu family or not, I support her. Sorry, I'm going to pick her up from work right now. Chi Mucheng bowed his head to her slightly, and then pulled the car door and got into the car.

Yu Xiyao wanted to say something, but Chi Mucheng's car had slowly faded away from her field of vision.

Her five fingers tightened, and the unwillingness in her heart swelled up layer by layer.

When Chi Mucheng went downstairs to Wansheng, he received a message from Yu Xia, saying that his roommate from the university had come to Jiangcheng on a business trip, and he felt sorry for missing the class reunion last time, so he specially invited her to come out with Yan Jin, and she had already left in their car just now.

Chi Mucheng raised his eyebrows and looked at the towering building, and accurately found Wansheng's advertising sign.

There was silence for a moment before he replied to the message: [I'll pick you up when it's over.] 】

Yu Xia's message came after five minutes: [But we have already discussed staying in Yujiangnan tonight. 】

The setting sun was like residual blood, staining the entire cloud of the western sky, thick and magnificent.

Chi Mucheng's eyes became cold and arrogant because of Yu Xia's news, and at this moment, he reflected the light of the sunset, looking demonic.

[No matter how late you get together, I'll pick you up.] 】

He typed word by word, pressed send, and drove away with one foot on the accelerator.

At this moment, Yu Xia, Yan Jin, and their college roommate Jiang Xixi are sitting in the car and heading to the food court near Jiang University, which they used to go to when they were in college.

Seeing Yu Xia pick up her phone from time to time, Yan Jin's sharp gaze saw through it at a glance, "What?" Mr. Chi, this favorite wife, is crazy to check your post? ”

Yu Xia glanced at her, what kind of spoiled wife madman? Sounds a little too perverted.

Jiang Xi keenly smelled the smell of gossip, stared at the two excitedly, and asked vigorously, "What Mr. Chi?" What spoiled wife? Who is married? What am I missing? ”

Because Yu Xia said before that she didn't plan to make the news of her marriage public, Yan Jian only vaguely said that Yu Xia had a new partner.

Jiang Xixi was not surprised by this, with Yu Xia's fairy-level beauty, no man could resist it. It's normal for her to talk to someone.

"What about you? Do you have any circumstances? Yan Jin asked Jiang Joy.

Jiang Xixi's ears turned red, with a little shyness, "If nothing else, I will get married in the New Year." ”

"Really? Why haven't you ever mentioned it before? What does the man do? Handsome or not? How did you meet? Yan Jin reacted more excitedly than when she fell in love.

Jiang Xixi was asked by her, but she was a little embarrassed, and said generously, "We met on a blind date, and we were introduced by acquaintances, so we know the roots." He is a civil servant, three years older than me, not handsome, but he can be regarded as a good-looking type. Anyway, it's not what I was looking for. But I feel good when I get along, he is very good to me, considerate and meticulous, and I feel that he is a person who can live. Let's just make a living. ”

Yu Xia and Yan Jin were a little incredible, and they heard between the lines of Jiang Xi's words, the compromises to their parents, and the compromises to life.

Yu Xia wanted to say that life should not be "lived", but the words came to her lips but she couldn't say it.

Perhaps for a large number of people, it is already a kind of luck to be able to make a living.

I just feel that these words shouldn't come out of Jiang Xixi's mouth, they have worked so hard to be admitted to a prestigious school, and they have worked so hard to get through to graduation, they have had the most beautiful dream together, and they have looked forward to an incomparably brilliant future together.

In the end, it was defeated by reality.

"Gee, you two don't look at me like that. I think it's good, really, he's a nice guy and he's very nice to me. It's better than love. Jiang smiled optimistically and optimistically, with a tone of pessimism about life.

Yan Jin's eyes widened suddenly, and he said angrily: "I suspect that you are connotating me, but I have no evidence. ”

The three of them burst into laughter in the car.
