throbbing for you

This answer is beyond reason, but it is not beyond Chen Xizhu's expectation.When Shi Yi said yesterday that she didn't know what Fu Sitian was thinking, she had a premonition in her heart.After talking for so long, Fu Sitian's words never showed another name close to her, and she became more and more sure.

She licked her lips, and asked cautiously, "Then...doesn't your family stop urging you?"

Among the reasons she told her for breaking up back then, pressure from her family was the main reason.

Fu Sitian shook his head, and said softly: "Not long after, my grandma passed away."

Chen Xizhu was taken aback for a moment, and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I..."

Fu Sitian interrupted her, said with a light smile, "It's nothing, besides, it's been so long."

Chen Xizhu looked at her always frank and gentle appearance, and wanted to ask her: Then why didn't you contact everyone, why didn't you go back to find Shi Yi.But she still didn't ask in the end. .

She didn't want to embarrass Fu Sitian.She knew that should be the part she didn't want to say.From the reunion until now, Fu Sitian almost always answered every question. She believed that she should have said everything she could and wanted to say.Most of the remaining four or two pieces of money that she brought over were things she didn't want to be known, and she shouldn't get to the bottom of it.

She changed the subject, remembering what she said earlier, "The whole family has moved here" and asked, "So, are all your family members in Haicheng now?"

Fu Sitian nodded: "Yeah. But I don't live with them."

"Then you live alone?"

"Ah."

"That means... are you still single now?" Chen Xizhu raised his eyebrows, pretending to be gossip.

Fu Sitian helped her serve a bowl of soup, smiled, neither admitted nor denied: "What's the matter? Do you want to introduce someone to me?"

Chen Xizhu said slyly, "Then are you interested?"

Fu Sitian glanced at her, looked helpless, and joked, "Is it because the food is not tasty, or is the food not tasty enough?"

Yin Fanlu laughed, picked up a chopstick of carrot for Chen Xizhu, and echoed: "That's right, can't you stop your mouth if you eat it?"

Chen Xizhu tacitly accepted the steps she handed over, and stepped down: "Ah! Yin Fanlu! You took the opportunity to pick me something I don't like!"

Yin Fanlu ignored her protest, and intentionally picked up two more chopsticks. Chen Xizhu protested exaggeratedly, and Fu Sitian couldn't help laughing as he watched them bicker.

It seemed that no one cared about the dull topic just now.

After the last clear dish was served, Fu Sitian said that he wanted to add more dishes, and both Chen Xizhu and Yin Fanlu waved their hands to express that they couldn't eat any more.It was the peak time for lunch. Chen Xizhu and Yin Fanlu were worried about delaying Fu Sitian's business, so they sat for a while after eating, made an appointment for two days to find time to play together, and then they were about to leave.

Fu Sitian personally sent them downstairs.

Out on the aisle, Yin Fanlu saw the sign of the restroom, and suddenly thought of going there, Fu Sitian and Chen Xizhu stood at the door of the box waiting for her.

"Always talk about me, sometimes I'm reckless." Chen Xizhu held the bag Yin Fanlu handed her, laughed and complained, with an unconcealed gentleness in his tone.

Fu Sitian followed her words and looked in the direction where Yin Fanlu was leaving. The corners of his lips curved slightly, but his eyes were a little out of focus.

"Xizhu..." She finally couldn't restrain herself and asked her: "Shi Yi... How has Shi Yi been all these years?"

Her voice was very soft, as if she was hesitant and difficult to ask.Chen Xizhu looked at her sideways, her eyes were falling in the distance, her long eyelashes drooped, covering her bright eyes, Chen Xizhu couldn't see her emotions clearly.

"Do you want me to answer yes, or not?" Chen Xizhu sighed in his heart.

She didn't mention it all the time, just to see if she would take the initiative to ask.

Fu Sitian bit his lower lip, looked at the void, and said awkwardly, "Okay."

It was totally different from the calmness and indifference during the conversation just now. The big stone that Chen Xizhu was pressing on his heart moved, not to say that it was a little more relaxed, but still a little heavier.

"Not too good." She smiled back.

Fu Sitian turned his head to look at her.

Chen Xizhu didn't dodge or evade, and said frankly: "After you broke up with her, she had a very bad life for a long time. Later, when she came to Haicheng, she never mentioned you again, and everything seemed to be alright. However, we never saw her smile the way she did before."

"She rarely goes back to Shencheng. A few years ago, she spent the New Year in Haicheng alone. It seems that the relationship with her mother has eased a little in the past two years."

Fu Sitian was in a daze, and the blood on his face faded.That's definitely not what it's like to hear about an ex who's let go.

Yin Fanlu came out of the bathroom.

Chen Xizhu went straight to the point: "In the past few years, she has been alone."

Fu Sitian looked a little dazed, looked at Chen Xizhu, then at Yin Fanlu who was approaching from a distance, finally said nothing, put on a forced smile, and sent them out.

After leaving the gate of the restaurant and getting into the car assigned to them by Shi Yi, Yin Fanlu couldn't help feeling: "Si Tian seems to have changed a lot."

"But nothing seems to have changed." Chen Xizhu said the second half of her sentence.

The two looked at each other and smiled, then sighed in unison.

"Fortunately, on the surface it seems to be doing well." Chen Xizhu felt relieved.

Yin Fanlu asked her: "On the surface? Did you see anything?"

Chen Xizhu said: "I see a little bit." She said directly to the driver: "Master, go to your boss's company."

She knew that Shi Yi must be eager to know the answer.

The drive from Nanyuan Restaurant to Boiling Media is not far away, and Chen Xizhu and Yin Fanlu arrived soon.The front desk had already received instructions, and when they saw Chen Xizhu and Yin Fanlu, they took them directly to Shi Yi's office.

Shi Yi was on the phone with a serious face. When he saw them coming in, his expression slowed down a bit. He got up and went to the sofa and gestured for them to sit down. He pointed to the tea, coffee and drinks, and asked them if they would like to drink. Chen Xizhu and Yin Fanlu both Shi Yi waved his hand to show that he was full, so Shi Yi didn't show any politeness.

She sat on the sofa and made another two phone calls, which ended hastily.

"Why so fast? How's the old story going?" She took a glass of water for herself and asked casually, but the hand holding the water glass unconsciously rubbed the side of the glass.

Chen Xizhu has been friends with her for many years, and he already knows how good she is at pretending.

It was rare for her to be kind enough not to go around in circles with her, and said directly: "It looks pretty good, prettier than before, and more eye-catching. The restaurant also looks pretty good."

Shi Yi pursed her lower lip, but said nothing.

Chen Xizhu continued: "But, I think she is not doing well."

Shi Yi frowned, waiting for her next words.

"I don't know how much six years can change a person. But I always feel that she is not really happy. She is not like that when she is happy." When Si Tian is happy, his eyebrows are full of spring breeze and his eyes are full of autumn water. .She didn't know it before, but she realized it after seeing her truly happy by Shi Yi's side.The current her is more like the one she used to be in high school, or she pretends to be a little more advanced than the one in high school.Not really happy, just acting like a normal person who isn't unhappy.

Chen Xizhu said: "Besides, she is so skinny, how could she be thinner than before. When I asked her, she only said that she has a physique that does not allow her to gain weight."

Shi Yi felt a dull pain in his heart again. "It may be that her digestion is not good. She should have had her gallbladder removed." She said in a low voice.

Chen Xizhu and Yin Fanlu's expressions changed drastically. "How could this be..." Chen Xizhu murmured helplessly.

Shi Yi's thin lips were pursed into a line, and the depression between his brows gradually revealed.

There was silence in the room for a few seconds, Shi Yi's fingertips turned white while pinching the bone china cup, and asked, "Did you ask her how she has been doing these past few years?"

Both Chen Xizhu and Yin Fanlu were taken aback for a moment, and then both felt helpless and uncomfortable.Chen Xizhu said: "Just now, she also asked me this sentence."

Shi Yi's dark eyes flickered, and a flaw finally appeared in his cold expression.

Chen Xizhu didn't know how many times he sighed in his heart along the way.Obviously they are all lovers, why can't they fall in love with a result.

She said: "In the past few years, she hasn't said much about her, and I only know a general idea." First, she said meaningfully: "She is not married, and she is still single now."

Shi Yi pursed his lips tightly, once again feeling the rhythm of his heartbeat recovering.

Yin Fanlu added: "Besides, it should be because she doesn't want to fall in love. You see, since she is single, she wears a ring on purpose. It should be to prevent unnecessary love affairs."

"Her sister came to me and told me about this." Shi Yi tried hard to find his calm voice.

Chen Xizhu was puzzled: "Her sister? She knows you? Did you say anything else besides this?"

Shi Yi shook his head, and made a long story short: "I probably don't know. She thought I was Si Tian's college friend, and wanted to ask me about her relationship in college. I don't know how her relationship with Si Tian is, so I shirked and said no." knew."

Chen Xizhu was thoughtful: "Speaking of her sister, I also find it a bit strange." She explained: "Si Tian said that she went back to Ningcheng first after graduating from university. Later, her sister had something to do, and their family moved to Shanghai. City. I went to Si Tian’s house twice after graduation. The first time was shortly after graduation when there was no one in their house. Her neighbor said they hadn’t seen anyone for a long time. The second time was after Fanlu and I got married. When I returned to China, it was about three years ago. At that time, their house had been sold. The other party said that the house was bought two years ago. I thought she was married and moved. Now it seems that they probably came to Haicheng at that time gone?"

"But at that time, Fu Siyu was still in his third year at Ning University?" Shi Yi said.

It didn't make sense, the family moved to Haicheng thousands of miles away for her for no reason.Shi Yi's heart beat suddenly so fast that she almost felt dizzy, and she asked in a tight voice: "Xizhu, have you met Fu Siyu before?"

Chen Xizhu said: "I met him once on the street by chance."

"Are her... two legs intact?"

Chen Xizhu was horrified: "Yes. She was about the same height as Si Tian at that time, and she looked normal in shorts. By the way, I remember when Si Tian and I worked part-time in a bookstore together, she once bought She took a skipping rope back and said that her sister asked her to bring it, and her sister wanted to skip rope to lose weight."

Shi Yi said stiffly, "When she came to me, her right calf was fitted with a prosthesis."

For a moment, a needle could be heard in the office, as if an answer was about to come out, but no one dared to make a final decision.

Chen Xizhu believed that for someone as smart as Shi Yi, Shi Yi must have the possibility she wanted.

However, she didn't know whether Shi Yi was still willing to believe it, whether she had the confidence to believe it again.

She wasn't entirely sure either.After all, the human heart is the most difficult thing to guess.However, Fu Sitian's dejected "Yes" still lingered in her ears, and she couldn't bear it: "Shi Yi."

Shi Yi stared at her, his eyes were as dark as the sea, and there was a faint light, like a hope that had been hidden in the bottom of the sea for a long time and could not see the light.

Chen Xizhu's shaking heart suddenly ached, and then settled down.Even if it was too much, she still wanted to say it.

She opened her mouth again, her tone was affirmative: "I don't know why she didn't explain to you or come to you, but I think she still cares about you, and cares about you a lot."

"There was a sentence I didn't tell you back then, because what I said to you at that time was not important in front of the result. But, now, I think I should still tell you."

Shi Yi listened attentively, his expression was still calm as always, but his breathing had become very light and slow.

"Lu He said that she has changed her mind. You also suspect that she doesn't love you anymore. But, she never told me that she didn't love you anymore back then."

"She just said she couldn't love you anymore."
