That night, Lu Zizheng called Jiang Huaixi, and told Jiang Huaixi about meeting Lian Xuan by coincidence without any concealment, his tone full of surprise and sigh.But Jiang Huaixi on the other end of the phone was inexplicably silent for a few seconds without saying a word.It wasn't until Lu Zizheng called her name with some doubts and asked her what's the matter, Jiang Huaixi smiled, sighed and teased: "It's nothing, I'm just a little envious, if only I could go to enjoy the scenery of X City earlier gone."

Lu Zizheng smiled slightly, and said dissatisfiedly: "You don't seem to be frank enough, are you sure, you just want to see the scenery earlier?" The implication is self-evident.

Jiang Huaixi smiled and said, "Oh, anyway, I don't want to accompany you earlier."

Lu Zizheng smiled contentedly, and didn't expose her, but just asked along the way: "Then your business is almost finished? When can you come to enjoy the beautiful scenery?"

Jiang Huaixi was silent for a while, and said with a downcast and apologetic tone, "It seems that it's more troublesome than I imagined. Zizheng, maybe I won't be able to accompany you until next week..."

Lu Zizheng frowned involuntarily, it was undeniable that she was a little disappointed.However, she still took a breath, stretched her brows, bent her lips, cheered up, and comforted Jiang Huaixi with a gentle tone as usual: "It's okay, I've been waiting for you here anyway, and I'm not in a hurry In a few days, you can take care of the matter with confidence." After she finished speaking, she paused, and said with a smile: "However, if you haven't dealt with it next week, come a few days late and wait for your arrival How about sleeping on the sofa for a few days after graduation?"

Jiang Huaixi immediately retorted with a sneer: "Very well, I will ask Xiao Lin to take a few people to remove the sofa tomorrow..." Xiao Lin is the driver she arranged for Lu Zizheng.

Lu Zizheng couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Haha, you are really enough, domineering president..."

Since meeting Lian Xuan that day, Lu Zizheng has not seen Lian Xuan for several days.She thought about it for a while, guessing that Lian Xuan should go out to play, so she didn't take it to heart, and gradually forgot about it.Until, on Thursday, Lian Xuan appeared at her door again, reminding Lu Zizheng of her existence.

That evening, Lu Zizheng came home from x University after listening to his class. Not long after eating, he heard the doorbell ring.She still had some doubts in her heart. She reckoned that the nanny would not ring the doorbell if she had a key, and that driver Xiao Lin would call her first if he wanted to come, so who would it be?She faintly looked forward to it, could it be Jiang Huaixi?

Thinking of this, Lu Zizheng couldn't help being impatient, so he quickened his pace and trotted to open the door.

However, what appeared in front of her was not the Jiang Huaixi she had been thinking about day and night, but Lian Xuan with a shy and embarrassed smile.

Lian Xuan wore a white dress and an apron, her long hair was casually tied behind her back with a leather cord, her elegance was a little gentle.She looked at Lu Zizheng, and asked her in a low voice with some embarrassment: "Zizheng, do you have any vinegar here? Can you lend it to me? I was cooking and I forgot to buy it when I needed it..."

Although Lu Zizheng was a little bit disappointed about the fact that it wasn't Jiang Huaixi, he quickly adjusted his thoughts and replied with a smile: "It seems to be there. Wait a moment, I'll get it..." As he said, he quickly He walked to the kitchen, and after a while, he came out with a glass bottle.

She handed the vinegar to Lian Xuan, looked at Lian Xuan's sophisticated and elegant appearance, and said with a casual smile: "I saw you in the company looking like a strong woman who pointed out the country, I never thought you could cook... "

Lian Xuan took the vinegar, blinked her eyes, revealed two delicate dimples, and invited with a warm smile: "Then why don't you come and try my handicraft, and find out if I'm just a showman or really True strength?"

Lu Zizheng shook his head, and refused: "I probably don't have a good meal, I just finished eating, and now I don't want to move anymore."

Lian Xuan smiled lightly, disappointed whether it was true or joking, and said: "Well, it seems that I can only be a lonely gourmet."

Lu Zizheng smiled, but did not speak.

After Lian Xuan left, Lu Zizheng sat in the living room for a while, took out his mobile phone and sent Jiang Huaixi a message "Dinner time is up, even if you are busy, remember to eat", then went to the study to read.

Then, about two hours later, Lu Zizheng heard the doorbell ring again.This time, Lu Zizheng guessed that Lian Xuan was jealous.

Sure enough, when she opened the door, she saw Lian Xuan taking off her apron, holding vinegar in one hand and a plate in the other, looking at herself with a smile.

Lian Xuan handed the vinegar to Lu Zizheng, with a worried face on her face, she asked Lu Zizheng, "I finished eating and I have nothing to do, so I cut some fruit and wanted to bring it over to eat with you. Is it okay?" She paused, and said: "I have been eating alone in the room these days, watching TV alone, just now I was sitting in the living room, and suddenly I felt that the quietness was a bit scary..." When she was talking , the voice gradually lowered, and the expression was a little lonely.

Lu Zizheng couldn't bear to see her lonely expression.She didn't have any strict arrangements to delay at night, so after a moment of hesitation, she opened the door and motioned for her to come in.

After entering the door, Lu Zizheng and Lian Xuan sat down on the sofa, facing each other, feeling awkward and speechless for a while.

When they met for the first time, Lu Zizheng was in a hurry to go to class, so he didn't ask much.So after thinking for a while, Lu Zizheng smiled, picked a topic, chatted with Lian Xuan, and asked her: "Why do you have time to come here to relax, and it looks like you are going to live for a while?"

Lian Xuan helped Lu Zizheng fork an apple, handed it to Lu Zizheng, smiled and replied: "Because of the divorce, I fell out with my family. The company's job was suspended, and the atmosphere at home is not very good, so I have nothing to do for a while, and I don't want to stay at home, so I came here." Half of the reasons were summarized in these words, and Lian Xuan didn't say the other half.The main reason for coming here is of course knowing that Lu Zizheng is here.

Lu Zizheng felt that the topic seemed a bit sensitive, it involved Lian Xuan's housework and sex, so it was not good to ask more.So, she just took a bite of the apple, said "oh" softly, and didn't answer.

It was Lian Xuan herself who smiled, leaned back slightly on the sofa, changed into a slightly more comfortable sitting posture, and continued along the topic: "Zizheng, to be frank, I think that after making this decision , the whole person is much more relaxed." She paused, and continued: "Speaking of it, my current situation is a bit like betrayal, but I feel as if I have escaped all the shackles. I haven't been in the same situation for a long time. In this way, I feel that I am just myself, I can laugh when I want, cry when I want, and I can stay out of the house all day without talking, and I am an independent and free person."

Lu Zizheng saw her Lianxuan's calm and leisurely smiling face, knew that she was really happy, and felt relieved from the bottom of her heart, a little happy for her: "I don't know if what you did is really right, but, I I think it’s worth it if you’re really happy.”

The dimples on Lian Xuan Duanli's face deepened, bright and brilliant: "I think it must be worth it. After so many years of weighing, what should be discarded, what should be kept, and all the effort, in the end, it was not for myself. This time, no matter what the result is So, at least I have lived for myself once, no matter what, it is worth it."

Her face is full of vows and radiance, and she no longer sees the heavy mask of calmness, self-control and occasional but preoccupied when they first reunited in the company.Lu Zizheng tilted his head, smiled lightly, and said, "Then what are your plans for the future, are you planning to go somewhere?"

Lu Zizheng clasped his hands on his knees, and was about to listen attentively when the cell phone on the tea table rang.The smile on Lu Zizheng's lips deepened unconsciously, and he answered the phone immediately.

The call was naturally from Jiang Huaixi, she smiled and said to Lu Zizheng that before she texted herself, she had already had dinner, so it was unnecessary to bury Lu Zizheng.

Because Lian Xuan was at the side, Lu Zizheng was not very comfortable speaking, so he just smiled and said: "Well, just remember to eat."

Jiang Huaixi was keenly aware of Lu Zizheng's abnormality, and after a little thought, he responded, "Is it not convenient for you to talk now?"

Lu Zizheng hesitated and said: "Well, I invited Lian Xuan to sit at home." Because Lian Xuan was at the side, Lu Zizheng cared about her face, so he didn't tell Jiang Huaixi directly that it was Lian Xuan who took the initiative. Ask to come in and chat.

On the other end of the phone, Jiang Huaixi was only silent for a while, and then thoughtfully said: "Then I will call you later, and you should treat her well first."

Lu Zizheng agreed, and replied, "I'll get back to you later." Then, he hung up the phone.

Lian Xuan was also very savvy, she got up when she saw this, cleaned up the similarly eaten fruit plate on the coffee table, and said with a gentle smile, "Go ahead if you have something to do, I should go back too."

Lu Zizheng politely asked to stay, but Lian Xuan also politely refused.

After sending Lian Xuan to the door, Lu Zizheng stood politely at the door, ready to close the door after Lian Xuan returned to her home completely.Unexpectedly, when Lian Xuan was about to open the door of her house, she suddenly turned around and asked Lu Zizheng, "Zizheng, do you have time on Saturday? Can you show me X University?" After a pause, she added another explanation: "University X is a tourist hotspot, so there is a limit on the number of visitors every day. I went there for several days in a row. It's not a coincidence. So..."

Lu Zizheng had no distractions in his mind, although he reckoned that the weather would be hot on the weekend and he would not want to go out for sightseeing, but he only felt that it would be unreasonable for him to refuse, so he hesitated for a while, and nodded in agreement.

Lian Xuan got her wish, thanked her with a smile, made an appointment, and only said that she would see her when the time came.

Lu Zizheng nodded slightly.

After seeing off Lian Xuan, Lu Zizheng returned to the living room, and immediately called Jiang Huaixi back.

About Cai Lianxuan, Jiang Huaixi didn't ask any more questions, just chatting with Lu Zizheng as usual, however, in her voice, Lu Zizheng could hear a little tiredness.Lu Zizheng put his whole body and mind on Jiang Huaixi, even if they didn't meet each other, Lu Zizheng would always pay attention to every change in Jiang Huaixi's tone and voice.

She felt that Jiang Huaixi's mood seemed a little bad this week.Occasional sudden silences that seemed to grow more and more.Although, during the call, Jiang Huaixi seemed to have been deliberately covering up, trying to behave as usual.

Lu Zizheng hesitated for a while, but still couldn't help but worry and told Jiang Huaixi: "Huaixi, your voice sounds a little tired, you can take things slowly, if you are too tired, take it easy first."

Jiang Huaixi laughed softly, teasing her: "Do you want to spend a few more days of free single life? You have bad intentions."

Seeing that she didn't want to meet and respond to him, Lu Zizheng sighed, changed the subject, and told Jiang Huaixi that he was going to take Lian Xuan to visit X University on Saturday.

Jiang Huaixi responded lightly, expressing that he knew. After a moment of silence, he told her: "If you are not very familiar with X University, you can buy a sightseeing map at the door. The weather is relatively hot these days, and the weather forecast It is said that there may be showers on Saturday, so remember to bring an umbrella. If you eat directly in the dining hall of x at noon, the nine meals will have more dishes, but they will be salty, and you may not be used to it. Xiyuan and Dong The food in Ju Restaurant may be more in line with your taste, but Xiyuan is open to tourists, so there will be more people, it will be noisy, and it will be hard to find one. Therefore, Dongju Restaurant may be more suitable.”

Listening to Jiang Huaixi's careful instructions, Lu Zizheng instantly wiped away the faint worries in his heart just now, and the smile on his face grew bigger and bigger.For the first time, she knew that Jiang Huaixi was also someone who could read the weather forecast.She replied with a smile: "Well, I see, I believe in your recommendation and choice, I will definitely buy a map to plan the route first, then bring an umbrella, and go straight to Dongju Restaurant when eating."

In the hospital, Jiang Huaixi was leaning on the pillow on his side, the oxygen nasal catheter was temporarily removed and hung around his neck, and a slender drainage tube was inserted in the back of his thin left side. On drip.The back of the white hand was full of bruises and needle holes.

When she heard Lu Zizheng's trust in her choice without hesitation, she couldn't help but her eyes darkened, feeling something in her heart.Lian Xuan's step by step calculations are due to Lu Zizheng's desperation; she is so weak and powerless now; and Lu Zizheng didn't answer her directly that day "If there is an if, will you forgive Lian Xuan and be with Lian Xuan?" Together", she became more and more uncertain.

She suddenly seemed to have compromised, she let out a long breath, and turned to Lu Zizheng, "Actually, it's not necessarily that other restaurants are not really suitable. Maybe, you can try to make Lian Xuan Pick it, maybe the unknown, but there will be a different kind of surprise.”

She raised her head, narrowed her eyes slightly, and looked at the drip dripping down beside the hospital bed, as if watching the passing time that she couldn't grasp bit by bit.Her pale and thin face had lost the coldness and calmness of the past, and was full of tiredness.

She whispered in her heart: "Zizheng, is it right to put all your eggs in one basket? Actually, should I give you more freedom and choices, which is better for you?"
