Journey to love

Xie Tong didn't go out very much during this time, except for going out to eat with Lio and the others two days ago, the rest of the time was basically staying at home preparing for lessons.After dinner, he stayed in his room as usual to work on the PPT for lectures. When he was struggling with what color to use as the background, Xie Ying knocked on the door and came in with a fruit plate in his hand.

"Don't be too busy, come, eat an apple." Xie Ying put down the fruit plate, and gave him an apple with a toothpick.

"Thank you!" Xie Tong took the apple.

Xie Ying watched him finish eating the apple, rubbed his hands, took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to Xie Tong, "Well... Didn't I say last time that I want to introduce a girl to you? Here, this is My colleague, whether he is beautiful or good-natured, the key is that his home is also in the local area.” She handed over a piece of dragon fruit, “Eat another piece of dragon fruit. Let me tell you, I have already made an appointment with her wife , It will be next Thursday, Chinese Valentine’s Day, so please don’t let me down.” After she finished speaking, she picked up the fruit plate again, “I still have to take this, you should contact the girl first, I’m going down.”

Looking at the closed door, Xie Tong sighed, and turned his eyes to the photo in his hand. The girl in the photo had a pretty face and a smile like a flower. Turning over the photo, the girl's name was written on the back—Xu Ziying, and The basic information of the other party and the time and place of meeting.

He was debating whether to go or not when the phone on the desk rang. Xie Tong didn't answer the call when he saw it was Yang Yunyan.

Xie Tong hesitated for a moment, but clicked on it anyway, 【Feeling is not a faucet, you can accept it when you say it, I believe you are not without feelings. ] Xie Tong didn't reply.He wanted to continue the work at hand, but found that he could not concentrate at all.It seems that there is no way to make any progress tonight, he rubbed his face irritably.

On the day of Qixi Festival, Xie Ying called several times to remind Xie Tong not to be late for the appointment and remember to bring a bouquet of roses there.When Xie Tong entered the restaurant, the agreed time had not yet arrived, but he found that the other party had arrived earlier than him.The restaurant was decorated very romantically, with a strong festive atmosphere, so it didn't look obtrusive for him to come in with flowers.He walked over slowly, the girl also saw him and stood up with a smile.

"Miss Xu has been waiting for a long time," he handed over the flowers, "Happy Holidays!"

"Thank you!" Xu Ziying took the flower and lowered her head to sniff, "You don't need to be so polite, just call me Ziying."

They sat down, ordered something, and casually chatted about some interesting things in work and life, but Xu Ziying was the one talking.While chatting, Xie Tong's phone rang, he saw the caller ID and pressed it off.

"It doesn't matter if you can pick it up." Xu Ziying thought he was embarrassed to interrupt the conversation.

"It's okay, don't worry about it, you continue." Xie Tong smiled, but when he looked up inadvertently, he saw Yang Yunyan and his assistant standing not far away, shaking his mobile phone at him, Xie Tong was a little stunned.

Yang Yunyan asked his assistant to wait in the car first, and walked towards them by himself.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that Xie Tong's expression was a bit wrong, Xu Ziying asked quickly, and when she saw Yang Yunyan sitting down, she stammered and asked, "This, is this gentleman your friend?"

"Hello! I'm Xie Tong's friend, and my name is Yang Yunyan." Yang Yunyan spoke before Xie Tong, and stretched out his hand towards her.

"Hello! My name is Xu Ziying." She reached out and shook his hand.

"I just happened to be eating here too, so I came over to sit and sit when I saw you, don't you mind?" Yang Yunyan asked.

"I don't mind." Xu Ziying shook her head, but Xie Tong remained silent, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.After a long silence, Xu Ziying broke the silence, and she asked Xie Tong: "It's almost time to eat, do you want to go to the movies together later?"

Before Xie Tong could answer, Yang Yunyan said, "I'm sorry! Actually, I have something to do with him." Xie Tong glanced at him and said nothing.

"That's it..." Xu Ziying forced a smile, "Then... If you have something to do, go and do it. I... I'll go back first."

"Shall I take you back?" Xie Tong said.Xu Ziying nodded.

But outside the restaurant, Yang Yunyan grabbed Xie Tong who was about to pick up the car, turned around and said to Xu Ziying, "Miss Xu, I'm really sorry, I'd better ask my assistant to take you home?" Xu Ziying looked at Xie Tong, Xie Tong smiled , Said: "Then let Xiaoliang send you, go back and rest early." She nodded disappointedly.

Sitting in the car, Xie Tong asked, "Is this interesting?"

"Are you blaming me for ruining your date?" Yang Yunyan said, "If you didn't happen to meet you here today, are you planning to just keep avoiding me?"

"Then what do you think of me? What do you think a normal person would do?"

"Why do you care so much about other people's opinions? Life is your own. How you live is up to you."

"How could you not care about it!" Xie Tong frowned, "You clearly know that this is wrong, and if you walk down, you will be in an abyss!"

"There is no right or wrong when it comes to feelings." He turned Xie Tong's face, made him look at him, and vowed: "Even if it is the abyss, I will admit it, because I know that if I miss you, I will regret it."

The two looked at each other for a while, Xie Tong broke away from his hand and said, "But I don't want to jump down with you!" He rubbed his brows, and continued: "Is this okay to end here? Friends...Where are you going? Work or home?"

Yang Yunyan looked at his tired expression, sighed helplessly, and said, "...take me to the company."

The computer screen on the table was on, but Xie Tong stood aside in a daze, not even knowing that Xie Ying had come in.

"What are you thinking about?" Xie Ying waved her hand in front of his eyes, "I called you several times but I didn't hear it."

"Nothing." Xie Tong sat up straight, "What's the matter?"

"What else can I do, of course it's a date." Xie Ying pulled the chair and sat down, "I have already called Ziying, and she has a good impression of you. What about you? Tell me, how do you feel?" How about it, do you still like it?"

"That's it." Xie Tong said perfunctorily.

"That's what it means. If you like it, you like it. If you don't like it, you don't like it. Talk to me carefully." Xie Ying patted him, "You've seen the person before, and you've said the same thing, she's beautiful and gentle, right? Hurry up, there are many people who like her."

"Sister, I know what to do." Xie Tong was a little annoyed.

"Be proactive in chasing girls. You can't be with Gu Xiao...you can't be as passive as before. Girls will feel left out."

"Understood, sister, you go out first, I still have to work." Xie Tong didn't want to hear her nagging.

"No, you must understand girls' minds..." Xie Ying wanted to continue.

"Okay, sister. Go and put Yuyu to sleep early." Xie Tong pushed her out of the door, and let out a sigh of relief leaning against the back of the door.

Xie Tong returned to school one week before the official start of school to prepare for the start of school.On Teacher's Day, he received a lot of blessing messages and small gifts such as potted plants and pens, most of which were from students.I have a party with my colleagues at night, just near the school.When walking out of the school gate after work, Xie Tong heard someone calling him, turned around and found that it was Yang Yunyan, who was leaning on the car door and looking at him.Xie Tong asked his colleagues to leave first, and he would arrive later.

"Why are you here?" Xie Tong walked over and asked with a frown.

"Don't you want to see me so much?" Yang Yunyan smiled wryly. He handed a bag in his hand to Xie Tong and said, "Happy holidays!"

Xie Tong didn't answer, and asked, "Is there anything else you need? I'm leaving first." After speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave.Yang Yunyan grabbed him and stuffed the bag into his hand, "I've bought everything, I'd better take it. I just came to tell you that my birthday is the day after tomorrow, and there is a party at the North Mayor Building at night. You will see most of the people who come Well, I wish you could come too."

Xie Tong opened his mouth and closed it again.

"Will you come?" Yang Yunyan looked at him expectantly.

"I don't know." Xie Tong closed his eyes, "I should go, my colleagues are still waiting for me."

"I really, really hope you can come." Yang Yunyan gave him a deep look after speaking, got in the car and drove away slowly.

Xie Tong stayed where he was for a while, seeing the bag in his hand, he felt mixed feelings.
