octopus don't cry

Then he turned his head, just in time to see her averting gaze.

I thought, I was probably helpless to the extreme, so I stopped struggling.

The newly opened Chunji has changed its layout, but it still has shiny wooden chairs and tables, and a small row of Gesang flowers is planted above the backrest.This kind of flower is ordinary but beautiful, which makes people feel relaxed.

The shop is rather noisy.Ms. Bai's eyes were full of doubts, I laughed again, took the menu and handed it over, "Look, what do you want to eat, the taste here is good."

She casually flipped through a few pages, gave a few names, and handed them to me.I didn't have anything special to eat, but I was really hungry, so I ordered two meat dishes.While the food was being served, she started talking to me again.

"How have you been these past few years?"

I looked up, "Thank you for your concern. I run the bar myself, and I'm doing okay."

She paused, then said again: "Ah, that's good." She was probably a little sad, and looked away slightly, "If you have any difficulties, you can come to me, and I can help as much as I can." Her His eyes fell on my face, and he sighed with guilt and guilt in his eyes, and said softly: "I am the one who is sorry for you father and son."

I look away.

My heart swelled up, and I felt something fermenting. It swept through my chest crazily and quickly, but the force was long and piercing, making me so uncomfortable that I cast my eyes on the ground.

I thought I wouldn't be sad.

She seemed to want to end this silence, but she seemed unable to say anything. She subconsciously picked up the purse that was placed aside, and it was not difficult to see that her hands were well maintained—this is probably the life that my dad could not provide in his entire life.

I knew it.

"Your father, how did you get away?"

She finally said again, I had done mental construction before, and it was not surprising, "My dad died in a car accident. When I took the college entrance examination, he had been a teacher for a long time and had presbyopia. When he went out to buy medicine by himself, something happened. Accident."

"Ah, then you, those years..."

"Don't worry, I'm doing fine. The insurance company and the perpetrator lost a lot of money. Although the funeral was bumpy, that's a thing of the past." My tone was light, "It's all over."

There was no sense of blame in my words, so she didn't know how to answer.I don't want to make her feel guilty, and I don't want to win her breath. It's just that I feel that she and I have long been strangers, so there is no need to communicate too much.

She didn't talk about how she was doing until after dinner, maybe it's not easy to mention it, and I didn't ask, but I vaguely knew from her words that she married into a family whose husband's life was good, and she also gave birth One daughter, nothing else.As for her sudden visit to City B, it was probably what she said before, "Accompany my daughter back to see the child".

We parted ways at the door.

After leaving Tsubaki, I felt that I had no place to go, and I didn't want to go home to sleep. I vaguely remembered that there was a bar nearby, so I walked there based on my memory.

After waiting for a party, I realized that this is a famous gay nearby. The name is very flamboyant, just a big "G".I hesitated for a while, but finally walked in.Probably it is too early now, there is no one in the bar, and I have come to a quiet place.

I turned down an approach, sat down at the bar, and asked the bartender to pour me a drink.

In my life, I have rarely done such things as drinking to relieve my worries. Although I can drink well, it is just the result of trying to socialize in the first few years.But the real time was the night when I left Qiji.

I didn't expect to have this idea again five years later.

-

"Hey, wake up."

I was shaken awake, I really didn't expect to end up drunk.Frowning and pressing my temples hard, I opened my eyes and found that I was lying on the long sand in the corner of the bar. However, when my eyes focused on the person opposite, I was so surprised that I forgot my words for a while.

"Hey, I finally woke up."

He has a nice face, most like those dandies, leaning on the deep red sofa, holding a slender goblet between his thumb and forefinger.However, it was such a frivolous posture and a cynical expression on his face that made me dare not despise him at first glance.

He has a pair of sharp and deep eyes similar to Qi Ji.He deserves those eyes.

He is Shi Lin.

-

"Oh, have you forgotten who I am?" He looked at me staring at him and raised his eyebrows.

I have already sat up from the sofa, brushed my hair, smoothed the wrinkles on my shirt, and barely retracted the surprise in my eyes, trying not to look so embarrassed.Unexpectedly, he suddenly laughed out loud, and his eyes were full of meaning.

He didn't care about my expression, and looked at me with a little unscrupulous eyes.He twirled the goblet, "I didn't expect to meet you here, President Qi's new secretary, I'm looking forward to you very much."

He took a sip of the red wine and motioned to me for another glass on the table.

Although I just woke up, I didn't refuse.

His lips curled into a smile, and he said again: "Speaking of which, I think you look familiar, Secretary Shen, did we meet somewhere? Let me think about it, a few years ago?"

There was a beautiful hint of drunkenness in his eyes, but he was still sober, and his expression seemed to be teasing some small animal with great interest.He looked at me, and I'm sure there was something in those eyes.

He leaned on the large sofa and tilted his head, "Hey, Mr. Qi's little secretary."

I gradually put down the perfunctory corners of my mouth.

Actually, I don't fear him, because to me, the affairs of the Qian family are over, and his so-called "secretary" is just a cover.But my character has always been kind to others. Even if I am in a bad mood at this time, I will not vent my anger at will.

I put down my glass and said flatly, "You're drunk."

His expression paused, and he lowered his head slightly and muttered, "Why are you so angry?"

I don't intend to continue to freeze, I get up from the sofa and prepare to leave.Just when he stood up, an anxious voice suddenly sounded in his ear, "Xi Zhe!"

I was stunned, and looked towards the door of the bar, Jing Xuan was rushing in.I couldn't turn my head around for a while, and couldn't help but think about when I contacted Jing Xuan before... I suddenly looked up at Shi Rin.

Holding his wine glass, he slowly revealed a harmless smile.

"Xi Zhe, are you okay?" Jing Xuan walked over quickly, his footsteps were still a little unnatural, which made me forget the other things for a while, and hurriedly supported him and said, "Is your leg okay? Do you understand slowly?" a little!"

He was taken aback by my yelling, then grabbed my arm, a smile slowly appeared on his face, "It's okay, don't worry."

The surrounding environment is not noisy, and his smile is clear.I had mixed feelings for a moment, and I didn't say a word. I walked out holding his arm, and the thoughts that had surged up in my heart sank to the bottom of my heart together with this smile.

He won't explain why he met Shi Lin, and I won't be completely disappointed in him, regardless.Isn't it the best?

I went out, planning to help Jingxuan back to the bar, and called Xiao A again.Jing Xuan was probably in a hurry when he came out, and he didn't notify anyone. After receiving the call, Xiao A breathed a sigh of relief, then became a little happier, and asked carefully if you were reconciled...

I was speechless for a moment, I could imagine his expression over there.After hanging up the phone to stop the car, I squinted my eyes because of the wind, and saw a car slowly stop, and then the window was rolled down, revealing the face inside.

It took me a long time to react before I remembered that it belonged to Wu Yu, cough, ex-husband, Xie You.

I couldn't help but open my eyes wide, inexplicably a little happy.Then I thought of Wu Yu, so I couldn't help staring at Xie You's face again, but I didn't find any heresy, feeling a little disappointed in my heart, and helped Jing Xuan to leave.

Xie You walked straight towards me, "Long time no see."

I had to stop, "Long time no see."

However, I'm not familiar with him at all, and I don't even like him very much, because I felt that a person like him always has a sense of alienation in his bones.But he asked about Wu Yu right away, "How is she doing now?"

"……well enough."

"I went to kindergarten, and Chenchen is gone." He looked at me with deep eyes, "I can't get through to her mobile phone, her number has changed."

I couldn't help sneering in my heart, "Well... I don't know about these things." I don't know if he knew that Wu Yu had left City B, but it seemed that he didn't know, and I didn't intend to tell him.

He obviously saw it, his eyes darkened, and he said in a low voice, "Tell her for me to treat yourself well."

I felt a rush of anger from my heart directly to my throat, but I held Jingxuan's arm, and I endured it, and finally just said in a deep voice: "As long as you don't contact her, she will live well."

Xie You's expression turned cold all of a sudden, but he didn't retort, and walked away with a cold face.He went straight into "G", I was stunned for a moment, but my first instinct was that he went in to see Shi Rin...

There was a burst of strength in the arm, and I came back to my senses. Jing Xuan looked at me, "Let's go."

I vaguely guessed something, but everything should be over.
