Later, I paid the CEO's ex-husband

Since that night, Ren Chuming has never looked for Chu Ruo again. In WeChat, except in the group, Cao Tian and the others keep posting photos and videos of the scenery and food of their hometown, or making jokes and making noise, no one looks for Chu Ruo anymore. like.

Since that night, Chu Ruo went to the nursing home a few times, wanting to see Bu Yang again, but the security guard probably recognized him, and every time he approached, he kept a close eye on him.Chu Ruo didn't want to be stared at like this, so she could only go a little farther and guard each time.However, Bu Yang never appeared again.

Chu Ruo knew that Bu Yang had been protected, and he would have little chance to see him again, so he stopped going and stayed in the dormitory all day to read Cao Tian and his professional books.He seldom swipes his mobile phone, but he can't stand Cao Tian and the others frantically attacking him in the group, so every time he has to stop reading the book to see what they are looking for him. cats.

At first Chu Ruo was able to hold back and return to them, but later he muted his phone and threw it aside to continue reading.

The day before the end of the holiday, Chu Ruo still stayed in the dormitory, not going anywhere.After finishing the book, he idly lifted his legs up to the chair, hugged his legs with one arm, and flipped through WeChat with his mobile phone in the other hand. When it's over, log out of WeChat, click on the address book, and then look at Ren Chuming's name and mobile phone number in the address book in a daze.

His thoughts had been completely emptied, and he just stared at Ren Chuming's name in a daze.Then I felt tired, so I got up from the chair, fell headlong on my own bed, and fell asleep.

He slept for hours at a time, and didn't wake up until he was hungry.After getting up in a daze, I found that it was completely dark. Looking at the time, it was already 08:30 in the evening, and the theater canteen had already closed.

In the past, he often skipped meals, but in recent years, he has gradually become unable to bear such tossing, and his stomach hurts when he is hungry, and he can sweat profusely every time.After coming to the theater, Dai Guang and Cao Tian stared at him all the time, and only let him go after he had to eat without a meal, and the stomach slowly recovered a little.But since the holidays, he has a tendency to not eat on time again. Now after the meal time, the feeling of stomach pain emerges again.

He sighed softly in the empty dormitory, lamenting how fragile the human body is, then got up, subconsciously raised his hand to touch the jade pendant hanging around his neck, and then went out with the wallet key.

But he doesn't want to eat noodles anymore, especially wonton noodles.His appetite was really not good. Holding his stomach, he walked slowly around the back street of the theater, but found that there was nothing he wanted to eat.Finally, he remembered the Qing bar that Cao Tian had introduced to him before he left. At first he was a little hesitant, but then he remembered that Cao Tian had patted his chest and assured that there would be no chaos there, so he took out the Qing bar that Cao Tian gave him from his wallet. Looking at the business card of the bar, I found that the address on the bar is actually only one street away from the theater.

You can also walk, so Chu Ruo walked.

The name of Qing Bar is Lulu Forest, it's on the side of the main road, and it's easy to find.Chu Ruo found it without much effort, looked in from the door, and found that there were quite a few people inside, so he couldn't help but hesitate a bit.

He adjusted the mask on his face, making sure that the mask covered all the scars on his face before letting go.But he didn't want to go in either, so he turned around and was about to walk away.

The door suddenly opened at this moment, and a crisp female voice sounded from behind him: "Sir! The gentleman in front is wearing a black shirt and a mask!"

Chu Ruo stopped, looked back, and saw a girl about 25 years old smiling at her, pointing to herself hesitantly: "Miss, you called me?"

The girl nodded, came to him, and looked up at him: "Why don't you go in and sit? If you don't want to be disturbed, we have a quieter place."

Chu Ruo didn't feel embarrassed when his heart was punctured, presumably because the girl spoke to him too sincerely, taking care of Chu Ruo's self-esteem properly.

"Come in, sir," the girl stood sideways, "Have you not eaten yet? You have to eat on time, or your stomach will hurt." Her bright eyes were on Chu Ruo's hand covering her stomach, calmly Turned around in a circle, and continued to smile authentically.

Chu Ruo followed her in.

The girl led him straight to a quiet corner, and after Chu Ruo sat down, she introduced: "This is our menu, but it is full of drinks. I suggest you, sir, eat something before drinking. Our back kitchen supplies some Risotto, pasta, pizza, and of course Chinese porridge, noodles and rice. Sir, what would you like to eat?"

Chu Ruo was a little confused: "Clear, why are there still these?"

"These are staff meals," the girl blinked mischievously, and said in a low voice, "If you are undecided, sir, you can try the basil risotto we had tonight, it's super delicious!" The girl frowned as she said Get up and look happy.

Chu Ruo was infected by her emotions, so she nodded with a smile: "Then have a copy. How much is a copy?"

"Fifteen." The girl poured a glass of lemonade for Chu Ruo, and brought a portion of steamed yam to Chu Ruo, and said, "Eat some of this to pad your stomach first. This is a tapas, and it's a gift."

Chu Ruo asked: "The risotto is so cheap?"

The girl said: "Meals are not sold outside, so you can set the price freely. Sir, please wait a moment, the meal will be served soon. Oh, by the way, my name is Tang Wenna, you can call me anytime if you need anything."

Chu Ruo smiled and said, "Okay, I'll trouble you."

The girl grinned happily, smiled, turned around and went to work.Chu Ruo poked a piece of yam with a toothpick, and put it into his mouth. The yam was sweet and soft, very delicious. Chu Ruo couldn't help but eat a few pieces, and his stomach felt much better.

His original nervous mood was also swept away at this moment, listening to the brisk and quiet music, his whole body also slowly relaxed.

The risotto was served quickly. Chu Ruo thanked Tang Wenna, then picked up the spoon and did not move for a long time.

Tang Wenna said with a smile, "Please use it slowly", and walked away.Chu Ruo just took off the mask, put the mask away, and took a mouthful of risotto to eat.The risotto is really delicious, every grain of rice is coated with basil sauce, and the sweet taste of fresh shrimp is mixed in it, the taste is rich.

Chu Ruo's appetite was so great that she just buried her head in eating for a while, and didn't notice that a tall figure pushed open the door and walked in.

There was a booing "hush" sound, Chu Ruo raised her eyes suspiciously, followed the sound, and the spoon in her hand stopped immediately.

He saw Ren Chuming, who was wearing a dark blue shirt and fastened the first button meticulously, standing in front of the bar not far away, looking at Tang Wenna who came out from the direction of the back kitchen.The employees of the surrounding bar were smiling at Tang Wenna, and Tang Wenna also showed a shy smile.

"Boss, you have guests!" A boy who looked quite young shouted happily.

Tang Wenna glanced at him softly, and said angrily, "Don't make trouble." Looking at Ren Chuming, the angry look disappeared, and an embarrassed smile replaced it, "Mr. Ren, please don't mind."

Ren Chuming shook his head lightly: "It's okay."

Tang Wenna pointed to the booth next to Chu Ruo, and said, "Please go over there and wait for a while, I will come soon."

When Ren Chuming looked over with smiling eyes, Chu Ruo hurriedly lowered her head like an electric shock, not daring to look over there again.

Then he heard Ren Chuming answer Tang Wenna: "Okay, take your time, don't worry."

Steady footsteps approached Chu Ruo. Chu Ruo scooped up a few mouthfuls of rice in a panic and stuffed it into her mouth. She chewed vigorously, but found that she was choking. She was about to reach for lemonade, but the lemonade was choked. Someone handed it over from the front.

Holding the water glass, Ren Chuming lowered his head and looked at him seriously: "Mr. Xu, what are you doing in such a hurry?"

Chu Ruo snatched the water glass and drank it with her head up. Ren Chuming sat on the booth next to him and looked at him: "Drink slowly, don't choke again."

Chu Ruo slowed down the speed of drinking water.

When he finally got his breath, Chu Ruo put down the cup he had emptied.Ren Chuming poured lemonade for him.

Chu Ruo was in a daze for a while watching the lemonade being poured into the clean and transparent glass without any haste.After Ren Chuming put down the water bottle, he woke up like a dream, his eyes looked in Ren Chuming's direction, but he didn't look at Ren Chuming: "Thank you."

Ren Chuming asked, "Why are you eating so late?"

Chu Ruo turned her gaze back to the risotto in front of her. She had no intention of eating it now, so she had to stir it slowly with a spoon: "I forgot to eat it."

"That's not acceptable." After Ren Chuming finished speaking, he stopped talking.

Chu Ruo didn't know how to answer, so after saying "um", she had no choice but to continue eating the risotto without taste.Even if he loses his appetite, he will finish eating.

Tang Wenna walked over with a wine glass at this moment, seeing the atmosphere between Ren Chuming and Chu Ruo, she immediately asked with a smile, "So you two know each other?"

Ren Chuming looked up at her, and smiled: "Yes. This is Xu Rong, a dramatist of the Liuguang Troupe."

Chu Ruo had no choice but to put down the spoon, swallowed the rice and looked at Tang Wenna: "Hi, my name is Xu Rong."

"Are you from the Liuguang Troupe?" Tang Wenna asked with her eyes wide open, "Then do you know Wang Wenxi?"

Chu Ruo said, "That's our team leader."

Tang Wenna smiled, and then explained to them, "Wang Wenxi is actually my high school classmate."

Ren Chuming nodded with a smile and refused to comment.

Tang Wenna picked up the wine glass and asked Ren Chuming: "Whiskey?"

Ren Chuming said, "Okay."

Chu Ruo put down the spoon and looked at him.

Ren Chuming took a sip of his wine, noticed Chu Ruo's gaze, and turned his head to look at him: "What, Mr. Xu?"

Chu Ruo shook her head quickly, and then continued to sip her food, feeling that she was meddling in her own business.

At this time, he heard Tang Wenna say to Ren Chuming: "We finally met. My father has been nagging me since I returned to China."

Ren Chuming said gently: "It's my problem, I should be blamed."

Tang Wenna took a sip of her wine, smiled and said, "What is there to blame? Mr. Ren, you don't need to worry about it. The older generation doesn't know about the younger generation. There is nothing wrong with them being anxious. We don't need to be anxious." Said, "I'm really sorry tonight, because the store has just opened, and I can't leave, so I can only arrange our first meeting here."

Ren Chuming looked around for a while, and then said, "I like this place very much."

"Really?" Tang Wenna's beautiful eyes curled up, "Thank you, welcome to come often, and you can also bring friends over to patronize my business."

Ren Chuming said, "Definitely."

After Chu Ruo finished the last mouthful of food, she stood up and went to the bar to pay the bill.

Ren Chuming's gaze followed him, and Tang Wenna also stood up: "Have you eaten?"

"Well," Chu Ruo said while wearing a mask, "Thank you for the hospitality, it's very delicious."

"I'll take you to pay the bill." Don Wenna said.

"No need," Chu Ruo said, "I'll just go by myself and don't bother you."

"That's fine." Tang Wenna smiled and sat down again.

Ren Chuming kept looking at Chu Ruo's back calmly, holding the wine glass with one hand.

Don Wenna suddenly said, "Are you friends?"

Only then did Ren Chuming turn his attention to Tang Wenna's face, and couldn't help but smile slightly, and said, "Not really."

"Oh?" Tang Wenna was a little surprised, "I think you care about him."

"I want to be friends with him," Ren Chuming said, "but he doesn't seem willing."

"Is there anyone who doesn't want to be friends with Mr. Ren?" Tang Wenna looked at Ren Chuming in surprise.

Ren Chuming smiled: "Don't make fun of me."

Tang Wenna shook her head and said, "How dare I make fun of Mr. Ren?"

Just as he was talking, there was a sudden exclamation from the door, which caught the attention of Ren Chuming and Tang Wenna.Ren Chuming raised his head, looked towards the door, and saw a boy in flamboyant clothes hugging Chu Ruo tightly.

Chu Ruo put her hand on the boy's back and patted it affectionately.

Tang Wenna took a look, then turned around and said, "Perhaps Xiao Xu feels that he and Mr. Ren are not the same. Although I only met Xiao Xu today, my intuition tells me that Xiao Xu is a very clear person."

Ren Chuming took a sip of his wine, his eyes were still on the two people at the door, and he asked lightly, "Really?"

Li Lekai dragged Chu Ruo into the store: "I didn't expect to see you here! You want to go? Why are you going? You are here, it's still so early, let's have a drink!"

Chu Ruo was very unwilling to stay here any longer.In fact, he likes this place very much, and he doesn't have any opinions on Tang Wenna - he is not qualified to have any opinions.He just didn't want to appear in front of Ren Chuming again.

Chu Ruo said: "I can't drink now, so don't make trouble with me."

"Then don't drink anything strong, just take a couple of sips of liqueur! You used to drink it like boiling water, what's the difficulty now?" Li Lekai still dragged Chu Ruo inside, "Come on!"

Chu Ruo was dragged back by Li Lekai, Tang Wenna immediately stood up and called them over: "Come, sit here!"

After Li Lekai saw clearly that Ren Chuming was sitting in front of Tang Wenna, he stopped immediately.At this moment, his feverish head finally cooled down a bit, and he frowned and approached Chu Ruo: "You and your ex-husband met again? What happened to that girl?"

Chu Ruo felt that one head was as big as two: "So I said we can go..."

But what none of them expected was that Ren Chuming also stood up and greeted them: "Come here and sit down."

Chu Ruo looked at him.

Ren Chuming had a decent smile on his face: "Meet a friend?"

Li Lekai chuckled, and was about to refuse, when suddenly Chu Ruo, who was beside him, said in a volume that was not loud enough for Ren Chuming and Tang Wenna to hear, "Well, it's a boyfriend."

Li Lekai was stunned, looking at Chu Ruo in disbelief.

Ren Chuming's smile remained unchanged, but he sat down, holding the wine glass in his palm.

"It turned out to be like this." He said lightly.
