Weak

Chapter 34

Even though time has passed for a long time, Su Cheng occasionally still thinks of that time.He will think of that rainy night, that decisive back and the loud sound of closing the door.

But time can indeed heal a lot of things, his fragmented emotions at the beginning were finally pieced together, Su Cheng already has the courage to recall these things——

But this does not mean that he has forgotten Tang Rong, on the contrary, Su Cheng puts him in a place in his heart that no one can touch or peep at, including himself.

This winter is extremely cold, even Su Cheng feels cold.The Spring Festival has just passed, and Valentine's Day is just around the corner.The streets are full of festive atmosphere, and there seems to be laughter in every corner.

People are always too easy to forget some things, no matter how profound things are, as if there are no traces left with just a snap of the fingers.But Su Cheng may not be such a person, he still clearly remembers how he spent that night nearly two years ago in torment and pain.

Tang Rong's goodbye to him at that time still echoes in Su Cheng's ears.In the beginning, he also had that kind of fantasy, and he would come back after Tang Rong calmed down, but it had been two years, no matter how real the fantasy was, he should let go.

In such a festive atmosphere, Su Cheng hardly rests, running back and forth between different cities, and he will go on a business trip again after Valentine's Day tomorrow.

After the trough of breaking up with Tang Rong passed, Su Cheng also learned to use work to numb himself. He became the general manager a year ago, and his work became even busier, so his mind was not occupied by that matter.

Just when Su Cheng was about to take a shower and go to bed, his cell phone rang, and it was Li Xianze calling.Su Cheng hesitated for a moment, but still picked it up.

Li Xianze: "Are you asleep?"

"No."

"Tomorrow is Valentine's Day, is there anything you want?"

Su Cheng was silent for a while: "You don't need to give me anything."

Li Xianze smiled bitterly: "Isn't it okay to be a colleague?"

"..."

Su Cheng sighed: "Don't bother, goodbye."

Su Cheng regretted a little, regretted that he used Li Xianze as a temporary anesthetic in the bathroom at noon when he was dizzy.

"Can you take off your glasses?"

Li Xianze froze for a moment, and finally reached out and took off his glasses.Su Cheng looked at him in a daze, and slowly approached him, with his lips close to the other's breath.

However, when they were about to meet each other, a huge emptiness passed through Su Cheng's heart.He stopped suddenly, and suddenly thought of Tang Rong's back when he left.

His hands tremblingly grasped Li Xianze's sleeve, and finally let go, he said sorry in a low voice, bowed his head and left.Li Xianze looked back at him with a very worried expression.

Li Xianze began to pursue him not long after that, but no matter what Li Xianze did, Su Cheng seemed to feel indifferent, he was not moved, he would not care, and naturally he would not accept it.

However, Li Xianze is also a very persevering person. During the two years when Su Cheng was down, he gave him a lot of encouragement, and he never gave up.

Those parts of Li Xianze who were originally very similar to Tang Rong in Su Cheng's eyes seemed to be no longer obvious. Once the original person was lost, what's the point of being similar?

Li Xianze was very lucky. Su Cheng had changed a lot when he met Su Cheng. If he knew what Su Cheng was like before, would he still be as persistent as he is now?

In fact, it's not that Su Cheng hasn't seen Tang Rong in the past two years.About half a year after they separated, Su Cheng participated in an industry exhibition. At that time, he saw Tang Rong talking with others on the stage from a distance, and stared at him for a long time.

Tang Rong looked relaxed and happy, wearing a well-fitting suit, she looked the same as half a year ago, with a charming aura.

Tang Rong knew how to regulate his emotions better than Su Cheng, as if he hadn't suffered any injuries.At that moment, Su Cheng felt that he was very small, he could only look at him from a distance, without the courage to go forward.

However, Su Cheng still couldn't help but asked the activity assistant for a business card of Tang Rong, and left just like that.

Now that business card is still in the mezzanine of Su Cheng's wallet, and Su Cheng has never dialed the number on it.

The next night, Su Cheng went shopping alone, and after he separated from Tang Rong, he also moved, to a place closer to the company.Su Cheng is also used to cooking, cleaning and living by himself.

In short, when he left Tang Rong, he felt that he could not do everything alone, he did it.

Su Cheng drove the car through the commercial street, and suddenly saw a watch store on the side of the street, and stopped on a whim.When Su Cheng entered the watch shop, the clerk immediately came up to him and asked him what he needed. Su Cheng said, "Can I change the watch strap?"

Clerk: "Of course, let me see your watch."

Su Cheng stretched out his wrist, and the clerk looked at it and immediately said, "Your model was made three years ago, right? Many customers liked it at that time."

Su Cheng smiled faintly, his smile was a bit lonely.With a black dial and white hands, everything couldn't be simpler.After Tang Rong broke the watch, Su Cheng took it and repaired it. It has been worn until now, and there are many nicks on the strap.

The clerk took off Su Cheng's watch and asked, "Sir, do you prefer a steel belt or a leather belt?"

"Steel belt."

The clerk said while changing, "Sir, do you want to consider buying a new watch? Recently, this brand has released many new models."

Su Cheng shook his head: "No need."

The clerk smiled and said, "Then you must be nostalgic."

Su Cheng felt a twinge in his heart, the pain that should have been swallowed was always being recollected.However, Su Cheng has also learned to face the reality. People like Tang Rong are not something he could possess before, and it is too late now.

After leaving the watch shop, Su Cheng went to a nearby men's clothing store to buy some clothes. He unknowingly bought a lot of Tang Rong's favorite brand, which has become a habit he will never get rid of.

After returning home, Su Cheng packed up the things he brought on a business trip tomorrow. Tomorrow he will first go to City A to meet a business partner, then go to City C to do some field research, and finally return to City A. He will have to take several planes. The schedule is tight.

Su Cheng received another call from Li Xianze, who seemed to be going to City A for business and would stay there for a few days, and asked Su Cheng if he was free to have a meal with him when he was in City A.

Su Cheng couldn't find any reason to refuse, and he agreed without a single meal.

Li Xianze said happily: "Then give me a call after you get off the plane, and I will pick you up."

Su Cheng originally wanted to say that he would go by himself, but Li Xianze might have expected that Su Cheng would refuse, so he hung up the phone first.

After getting off the plane the next afternoon, Su Cheng notified him as Li Xianze said, and waited for him at the airport.Not long after, Li Xianze came. Unexpectedly, Su Cheng discovered that Li Xianze no longer wore glasses.

Su Cheng: "Where are your glasses?"

Li Xianze: "It's changed to an invisible one. I just started wearing it, and I'm not used to it yet."

Su Cheng stared at him for a while, and finally said: "Let's go."

Li Xianze booked a very high-end restaurant, and the dishes were all ready.When he was about to finish eating, Li Xianze suddenly took out a long box from his bag and placed it in front of Su Cheng.

Li Xianze: "Happy Valentine's Day."

Su Cheng: "...I said you don't need to give me a present."

"But I want to give it away." Li Xianze said with a smile, "After all, I am pursuing you."

Su Cheng: "I have already refused."

Li Xianze was silent for a while, not knowing whether to tell himself or Su Cheng: "Persistence is always good." He stared deeply at Su Cheng, "Just go in the right direction."

Su Cheng felt that he shouldn't have promised Li Xianze to come out for this meal, so he wiped his mouth: "Take it back."

Li Xianze said in a deep voice: "Why are you so obsessed with someone who has been away from you for a long time? Isn't two years long enough for you?"

Su Cheng stared at him closely: "Why did you bring this up?"

"Then why you can't let it go?"

"But what position do you have to say these words?"

Li Xianze: "Yes, I have no position, but I like you, and I don't want to see you make things difficult for me. You can reject me, you can like anyone but me, but I just don't want to see you abandoning you People never forget."

abandon?

Su Cheng suddenly let out a somewhat lonely self-deprecating chuckle, and murmured: "You don't even know what happened between us..."

"You are self-motivated, you work hard, and everyone respects you." Li Xianze said, "You don't deserve to be with someone who looks down on you at all."

Su Cheng said in a deep voice, "This is just what you see."

"Then tell me what I didn't see."

Su Cheng got up: "I have to go, thank you for inviting me to dinner."

Su Cheng turned and left, leaving the gift on the table, Li Xianze frowned and looked at his back, and sighed.

Su Cheng forgot about the dinner with Li Xianze, went to meet his partner at work, and took a plane to City C in the early morning. The research work in City C went smoothly, much faster than expected.

In order not to stay in city C for too long, Su Cheng changed his flight.He only slept for three or four hours last night, and today he is dizzy, and he is going to have a good sleep on the plane.

After boarding the plane, Su Cheng found his seat, told the flight attendant in advance that he would not eat, covered himself with a quilt, and fell asleep.Although dizzy, maybe it was because the seat was still not as comfortable as the bed, Su Cheng couldn't fall asleep all the time.

During the period, Su Cheng heard the sound of the luggage rollers sliding across the carpet, and a series of conversations reached Su Cheng's ears from the front row.

"Mr. Tang, right? Need something to drink?"

"Just drink water."

"Do you need a meal after takeoff?"

"No, thank you."

Su Cheng opened his eyes.

This all-too-familiar voice pierced Su Cheng's eardrum like a sharp sword, and he held his breath almost instantly.Su Cheng's palms began to sweat, and his heart beat vigorously immediately.

Su Cheng couldn't believe it, but Tang Rong's voice was so clear.

Su Cheng only saw a silhouette sitting in the front row by the aisle.One arm lightly clasped the armrest, and the slender fingers clasped lightly.

With just such a narrow shadow, Su Cheng knew who it was.

Su Cheng was at a loss for what to do with just a silhouette of a person he hadn't seen since he glanced at him from a distance a year and a half ago, his shirt was soaked in sweat, and his breathing was out of control.

To be honest, Su Cheng originally thought that he could be calm without talking about it, but he would not be so flustered.He thought that he would put Tang Rong in his heart well, and if he was not exposed to the sun, this impulse would be suppressed——

But he was completely wrong. The moment he actually saw Tang Rong, Su Cheng realized that he had never kept his feelings for Tang Rong too deep, instead, it was within reach of his heart and could burst out at any time.

Tang Rong stood up suddenly, as if she was going to put something on the luggage rack. Su Cheng huddled herself tightly in the shadow of the corner, but couldn't help but look at him.

Tang Rong's hairstyle is not the same as before, making him more capable and handsome, but Su Cheng can tell at a glance that the clothes he is wearing are still his favorite brand.

Su Cheng's fragility that had been dormant for two years began to rise again, and he found it difficult to breathe.

Tang Rong sat down, but Su Cheng was sweating profusely as if he had experienced a speeding up of life and death.

The original plan to take a good rest was impossible. During the two-hour journey, Su Cheng was tense, and even the energy brought by the few hours of sleep he saved last night was almost exhausted.

After getting off the plane, Su Cheng went to the bathroom, and calmed himself down with a few handfuls of cold water.

It was impossible between him and Tang Rong.

Su Cheng convinced himself that he wasn't expecting anything, even though he was still wearing the original watch, he was still buying the same brand of clothes as Tang Rong, and he still had his business card in his wallet, his...

Su Cheng found that he couldn't lie to himself.

Su Cheng looked at himself in the mirror, in the end, he was still looking forward to it, and he still couldn't forget it.The heartbreak at that time was too deep to be forgotten no matter how many years passed.

This is the retribution he deserves.

Su Cheng turned on the faucet, let out a breath slowly, as long as he didn't see Tang Rong again, maybe his feelings could be suppressed, and after the momentary excitement of meeting, he would be sad for a long time—why did he change that flight at that time? ?

The door of a compartment behind was opened, and a person came out from inside. When he saw Su Cheng's back, he was obviously stunned.Su Cheng also saw him in the mirror, his throat seemed to be tightly strangled for an instant.

The water from the faucet just flowed like that, and no one broke the silence.

After a while, Tang Rong came over, washed his hands calmly, and turned off the running water tap for Su Cheng.He was silent for a while, buried his face in the darkness, not knowing what kind of expression was on it.

When Tang Rong looked up again, his expression remained the same.

Tang Rong tore off the paper and wiped her hands, and asked calmly, "Are you on a business trip?"
