I was the first to catch up

When the car door was slammed, Fang Ranran, who was sitting in the back seat with her arms folded, was sitting there playing with her mobile phone. Lai Mingshan glanced at her in the rearview mirror.He shrugged, and when he started the accelerator, he heard a cold sentence from behind:

"If you make such a joke again, believe it or not, I will peel your skin off."

This kind of words came out of Fang Ranran's mouth lightly, but the corners of Lai Mingshan's mouth twitched, but he still pretended to be nonchalant and said:

"Didn't you deny it just now? I thought you really promised me."

Lai Mingshan's Porsche was sprayed with a strong perfume, Fang Ranran wrinkled his nose and closed the window.

The wind was blowing on her face. The wind that was still bitter when she left had become warm and soft now. Fang Ranran closed her eyes and remembered what she had done just now.

She did not deny Lai Mingshan's words, and even gave Yu Xiaomin a provocative look.Yu Xiaomin looked at her quietly, as if waiting for her to say something.

Because of this, she didn't say anything, but turned to ask Lai Mingshan where his car was parked, and asked him to take her there.

Fang Ranran leaned there and sighed. After all, she still couldn't take another look at Yu Xiaomin before leaving.Yu Xiaomin didn't even say a word from the beginning to the end, which made Fang Ranran very uncomfortable.

She obviously wanted to say goodbye to Xiao Min today, but her reaction caught Fang Ranran by surprise.

Even if you say "Long time no see", it will make me feel much better than staring at me silently without saying a word.

Fang Ranran lowered her head, Guan Buyu sent her many messages, she asked what happened, is what the man said true?You really have a boyfriend?You—are you really going to give up this time?

Fang Ranran put the phone on her lap, she looked out the window, the car stopped, and the traffic lights were flashing.

Lai Mingshan booked a restaurant tonight. Except for her, the people who came to eat were all friends of Lai Mingshan's acquaintance. It is not accurate to say that they are friends. Strictly speaking, they should be potential partners of their project.

"How's the progress on the R&D side?"

Fang Ranran asked casually, then she picked up the phone, typed the words "Isn't the game over long ago", and deleted them one by one, Lai Mingshan replied over there:

"There is still a shortage of people, but if today's meal goes well, we will have the funds to hire more people."

"Good."

Fang Ranran nodded perfunctorily, and Lai Mingshan knew that she was just asking casually, so she seemed a little helpless.He turned on the radio, music was streaming out, Fang Ranran frowned:

"Shut off. Annoyed."

Lai Mingshan didn't turn it off, but turned down the volume, and Fang Ranran typed on the screen a little annoyed:

"Give up, so what?"

send.

Fang Ranran let out a long sigh, thinking that he was a bit naive to be honest, what is it to lose his temper on Guan Buyu?She didn't know anything, she was probably overwhelmed by the scene just now, and now she must have gone to cry with Jiang Lingyu.

So she slowly typed a few more words:

"Lai Mingshan is a friend I met in the business competition. We are investing in an app project together. Don't get me wrong, we have nothing to do with each other. You know, Master Fang's requirements are not so low."

After sending it, she snorted softly, and Lai Mingshan turned to look at her, and suddenly sighed:

"Fang Ranran, why do you seem to be a different person after you come back? Your mood swings are much greater than when I knew you. How come you suddenly become like an ordinary person. "

Lai Mingshan remembered that when they played together, this petite and cold girl either said nothing, or hit the nail on the head with one sentence.In the end, he, the team leader, became in name only, and everyone, including Lai Mingshan himself, was actually waiting for Fang Ranran's instructions to do things.

He still remembered that one night, when all the team members fell asleep, leaving only him and Fang Ranran sorting out the data, he looked at Fang Ranran's delicate side face slightly illuminated by the light from the screen, and suddenly spoke to her explain:

"Fang Ranran, tell me, if I want to chase you, will I have hope?"

Lai Mingshan is quite confident about himself. His family is in business, and the conditions are good enough for him to spend his whole life without doing anything.And he is also good-looking, has a good figure, and goes to the gym every day to exercise.Few people can refuse such a direct request from him, and even if they refuse, they will become concerned about him in the future.

But Fang Ranran just hit enter at that time, she took off her glasses and sighed, looked at him very sincerely and said:

"Lai Mingshan, please tell me, what gave you the illusion that you could say such things to me? Tell me, I will try my best to change it so that a similar situation does not happen next time."

Lai Mingshan then looked down at the time, two o'clock in the morning, is he not awake or is he actually dreaming?He probably only heard such words from Fang Ranran in his life.

Since then, Fang Ranran has been an indifferent monster in his heart that will never have any emotional fluctuations - until he visited Huanjiang this time and met Fang Ranran again.Today's Fang Ranran seemed to have changed slightly from the person he remembered, which surprised him a little.

"I'm serious, Fang Ranran, I think we can get married first, you play yours, I play mine, so that our parents won't bother us. After all, our family can be regarded as a well-established family, right?"

Lai Mingshan didn't know how many times he had said this. He just knew that Fang Ranran would not have any reaction, so he said it happily.

And behind his jokes, there were indeed hidden thoughts of his own, of course Fang Ranran knew all of this.So she said:

"No. I'm too disadvantaged as a woman, it's unnecessary. You just don't want your parents to urge you to get married, right? Don't get involved with me."

As expected of Fang Ranran.

Lai Mingshan smiled wryly, he was in the parking space, and he was about to park in, when Fang Ranran suddenly said from behind:

"If you have time to find someone to marry, why don't you reconcile with your boyfriend first? He has made thirteen phone calls since I got in the car."

When Fang Ranran was talking, the screen of Lai Mingshan's mobile phone lit up again. Fang Ranran felt the car body pause, but continued to say:

"Shishitong. Cold treatment is not a good way."

Lai Mingshan finally parked the car. He turned his head and gave Fang Ranran a white look. Then he picked up his phone and opened the car door while picking it up. Fang Ranran sat there without moving.

Her phone wasn't on, and she didn't even have someone to deal with coldly.Yu Xiaomin never called her when she left Huanjiang.

Maybe it's just an illusion.

Fang Ranran hung his head, a little weak.

I am not that important to Xiao Min, after all, she is just a substitute.

If not, it doesn't seem like a big deal.

The meal lasted until about eight o'clock, during which Fang Ranran discussed cooperation with them, because they were all young people, so the atmosphere was relatively relaxed, and the whole process was almost decided while chatting.

Fang Ranran doesn't really like this inefficient way, but she really needs to expand her network, and Lai Mingshan, who is already a college student and has a deep family background, obviously knows more people than her, even in Huanjiang.

After eating, she got into Lai Mingshan's car again, and asked him casually:

"Leave tomorrow?"

Lai Mingshan nodded, he replied the message with a smile and said:

"I had to stay one more day, but now the plan has changed, and I will leave tomorrow."

Fang Ranran rolled her eyes, and Lai Mingshan continued to ask:

"Send you home? Or where to get off."

Fang Ranran was about to say go home, but after thinking about it, what she said was:

"Take me to the intersection where you picked me up."

"Intersection? Ah, it's in front of that breakfast shop, right?"

After Lai Mingshan started the car, Fang Ranran fell silent. He played the music again, but Fang Ranran didn't stop him this time.

She lowered her head and kept looking at the sentence that Guan Buyu sent her while eating, but she didn't reply, and that sentence was always lying in the original place.

"Fang Ranran, I think you still have to have a good chat with the proprietress before making a decision."

Fang Ranran guessed that Guan Buyu had thought about it for a long time before deciding to say it.She knew that she was stupid and couldn't help Fang Ranran, and what she could say was limited.But Fang Ranran is very grateful for Guan Buyu, because of this, she can always be gently pushed up by her.

The car came to the side of the road and stopped slowly.Fang Ranran was a little dizzy after getting out of the car. She drank some red wine just now, and now her cheeks are still a little hot, and the wind feels very comfortable.

Lai Mingshan said goodbye to her behind the car window. Before leaving, he suddenly looked at Fang Ranran with great interest and said:

"Fang Ranran, sometimes I'm curious as to what kind of person can win your favor."

Fang Ranran turned around without answering.She heard the sound of the car leaving and gradually disappeared in the distance, and the shutter door of Xiao Min's cafeteria was halfway drawn, and she knew that Yu Xiaomin might still be inside.

She stood there for a long time, and there was a gust of wind, which seemed to keep reminding her—calm down, calm down.

Fang Ranran took a deep breath, and she bent down to enter the store. When she entered, she seemed to hear a faintly frightened "Yeah", but when she raised her eyes, Yu Xiaomin had returned to her usual appearance. She looked at Fang Ranran in surprise.

Yu Xiaomin was still holding a can of beer in her hand, and her index finger was holding the tab, as if she could open it with one hand.

After Xu Shi drank some wine, Yu Xiaomin finally said the first sentence to her that he hadn't seen for a long time, and the first sentence was:

"... got caught."

She blushed and smiled a little embarrassedly.Only then did Fang Ranran realize that Yu Xiaomin didn't remember that drunken night, nor did she remember her running away.

This made Fang Ranran heave a sigh of relief, she nodded, looked away and said:

"It's okay, I won't tell Jiang Lingyu."

Fang Ranran looked around the store. Yu Xiaomin was only wearing a close-fitting vest. She put on a coat in a panic when Fang Ranran looked away. Then she stared at the beer in her hand in a daze. Sighed, didn't turn it off.

"What are you looking for?"

Yu Xiaomin put the beer on the table and came over to ask.It's so weird, it's clear that they couldn't say a word in the morning, as if there was some conflict between them, but now it's extremely normal, Fang Ranran doesn't understand what Yu Xiaomin is thinking at all now .

Since she was acting so ordinary, Fang Ranran had no choice but to act as her most ordinary self, so she raised her eyes, looked directly at Yu Xiaomin and said:

"Some books, and a coat I left here and forgot to take."

Yu Xiaomin was taken aback when she heard the words. She knew that Fang Ranran would usually read a few books in her free time when she was helping out in the store. After reading some books, she would put them in the store and never take them away. Occasionally, she didn't bring any books with her. When I come over, I will pick it up and look at it a few times.

As for her coat, she found that Yu Xiaomin was asleep when she came to the store, so she put it on for her, but she didn't take it back in the end.

The reason why she didn't take it at those times was because she would come to the breakfast shop every day, so there was no need for that, she had to come back.

So why are you taking it back now?

"Yu Xiaomin."

Fang Ranran raised her eyes, no, she suddenly smiled to herself, and corrected her address:

"Miss Boss, I have a lot of work to do now, so I can't come to the store to help anymore. But I will sort out the things we discussed before and send them to you, so you can see if there is anything you can refer to. "

Fang Ranran walked over while talking. She hugged the book that Yu Xiaomin put in the cabinet in her arms, and then picked up her coat from the side. Finally, she walked to the door and turned around to look at Yu Xiaomin .Under the dim light, Yu Xiaomin noticed the change in her bangs, and her hair seemed to be longer than before.

At this moment, Fang Ranran seemed to have grown from a child to an adult who could look at him as an equal.She is always at ease and can say anything without rushing.She said thank you for taking care of me during this time, and said goodbye, as if no one could stop her.

And Yu Xiaomin stood there without saying a word, just watched Fang Ranran bend down again, and left the shop, leaving her a suffocating space of silence.

She opened her mouth the moment Fang Ranran left, and said very softly:

Fang Ranran, don't go.

Did she say that?Or, was she just whispering in her heart?So no one can hear it, and of course Fang Ranran can't hear it either.Even Yu Xiaomin didn't hear it, she said don't go, don't go, Fang Ranran, stay here——

stay with me.

And that Fang Ranran stopped by the side of the street. She hugged the coat in her arms and turned around to look at Xiao Min's cafeteria where she had been busy for several months.There are so many memories here, good and bad, painful and heartwarming.There is her, and Yu Xiaomin.

These, she will give up now.

Before leaving, Ran Ran lowered her head and sniffed the coat in her arms. It was obviously her own clothes, but the coat was full of Yu Xiaomin's smell.She closed her eyes, buried her face in the coat, and seemed to still hear the "child" in her ears.
