poppies in the attic

34.

"Is this why you left without saying goodbye?" Wu Pengzhi blurted out.

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Wu Pengzhi regretted it.

People are always like this, often only the moment they say something, will they realize that it is inappropriate.Sometimes the content is inappropriate, and sometimes the timing is inappropriate.In short, it is quite difficult to be decent.The deeper and more intense your feelings are, the more times and depths of inappropriateness will occur.

Perhaps Xiang Jin also felt that her language was inappropriate, so after she finished speaking her thoughts, she pursed her lips tightly while avoiding Wu Pengzhi's sight.He turned a deaf ear to Wu Pengzhi's questioning.

Discussing such a sensitive and complicated issue at this time and at this place is obviously beyond the capabilities of both parties.

Wen Shaohui appeared downstairs in time, "Let's go."

Xiang Jin walked to the railing of the attic.

"Can we buy Miss Wu a cup of coffee?"

Xiang Jin hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Wu Pengzhi, asking for her opinion with his eyes.

Wu Pengzhi nodded reluctantly, she didn't want to offend Wen Shaohui, for the sake of Xiang Jin.

Wu Pengzhi felt a little strange about herself. She never seemed to be afraid of Fang Ming, and even had an illusion that Fang Ming did not exist in her love story with Xiang Jin, but was just a name.However, Wu Pengzhi minded Wen Shaohui very much, and instinctively regarded Wen Shaohui as an opponent.

Xiang Jin smiled apologetically at Wu Pengzhi, "Go and see the coffee cup I designed."

Wu Pengzhi found that Xiang Jin obeyed Wen Shaohui, even accommodating him a little.

When the two of them walked down the attic, Wen Shaohui smiled and said to Wu Pengzhi, "It seems that you two owe me a story."

Wu Pengzhi really wanted to say something to him, "Who are you, my story is none of your business."

But the reality is that she smiled politely and said nothing.

After everyone sat down, the waiter came over attentively, "What would you like to drink?"

Wen Shaohui signaled Wu Peng to order first.

Just as Wu Pengzhi was about to say cappuccino, Xiang Jin said to the waiter, "Give her and me Turkish coffee."

Wen Shaohui glanced at Xiang Jin, "I also have Turkish coffee."

The waiter walks away.

"Miss Wu likes Turkish coffee?" Wen Shaohui asked.

"I haven't had any."

"Excessively, you make your own decisions." Wen Shaohui's tone was familiar.

Xiang Jin didn't respond, but lowered his head and rubbed his fingers.

So Wen Shaohui turned to Wu Pengzhi, "Miss Wu is really successful in her career. Is your business doing well?"

To Xiang Jin's surprise, Wu Pengzhi didn't respond perfunctorily, but started talking.

From the completion of this year's sales task to the upcoming listing, from the broad prospects of industrial development to their company's corporate culture.Wu Pengzhi was almost eloquent.

Turkish coffee was served, and the strong aroma of the coffee did not make Wu Pengzhi change the subject.It was only when he took a sip of coffee and realized that there were coffee grounds in his mouth, he glanced at the coffee in the cup in wonder.

"Turkish coffee is very unique, it is coffee with grounds." Xiang Jin introduced.

"Oh." Wu Pengzhi responded soullessly.Then, under Wen Shaohui's questioning, he continued to tell about his company, implying that his career was successful.

Xiang Jin drank his coffee slowly, looking down at his idle hands on the table.She was suddenly disappointed and bored.

Xiang Jin invited Wu Pengzhi to drink Turkish coffee in order to play a little game with her, but now it seems unnecessary.

Can 15 years change a person a lot?

The last time Wu Pengzhi came to pick up the painting, the girl Xiang Jin saw from a distance while sitting in this cafe, and the Wu Pengzhi that Xiang Jin felt in the exhibition hall and attic just now, were completely different from the woman in front of him.

Xiang Jin guessed, is this what Wu Pengzhi looks like in business?The eloquence is eloquent, and the words are false.

Back then, Xiang Jin could easily see through Wu Pengzhi's little thoughts, which was very interesting and refreshing.Now she finds that she can't understand Wu Pengzhi very well.To be more precise, it was Xiang Jin who didn't want to observe Wu Pengzhi in his current state.

Wen Shaohui finally stopped asking about Wu Pengzhi's work, and glanced at Xiang Jin with a sly gleam in his eyes.

He drank his coffee.Then he smiled and asked Xiang Jin, "How about it, can you do a divination for me?"

Xiang Jin looked out the window, "There's another guest, why don't you go and say hello?"

Wen Shaohui stood up, "Come on, shall we go together?"

"I'm tired. Shaohui, please." Xiang Jin said.

"Okay, then you go back to rest early. Miss Wu, goodbye." Wen Shaohui left first.

Originally, neither of them wanted Wen Shaohui, the big light bulb, to be inserted in the middle, but when the light bulb left, they fell into even greater embarrassment.They suddenly became speechless.

"Hey, what did Mr. Wen say about divination just now?" Wu Pengzhi began to find a topic.

"It's nothing, just kidding. I'm tired, I want to go back first."

Wu Pengzhi suddenly panicked, "Um, Ah Jin, did I do something wrong just now?"

Xiang Jin smiled, instead of answering the question, he said, "You haven't thanked me for the painting you gave me last time."

"Ajin, thank you, that painting is beautiful, and it is hanging in my living room now."

Xiang Jin leaned back in the chair, looked into Wu Pengzhi's eyes, and said slowly, "As long as you like it."

Then, the two of them broke up politely.
