Why are you in such a hurry

Finally, the fake came true, Cheng Lili had a sleepless night, got up early in the morning with dark circles under her eyes, and began to search the classmate directory, looking for the deskmate who had been lost for many years.

"Hello?" The voice on the other end of the phone was a bit rough, which startled Cheng Lili.

"Is it Zhong Xuan? It's me." Cheng Lili deliberately raised the volume so that the other party could hear more clearly.

Back then they had a deep relationship, went in and out together, secretly passed small notes during class, and went to the toilet arm in arm when class was over, the youthful years were like songs forever.

"...Who are you?" The other party's tone was full of vigilance, and he clearly suspected that this was a scam call.

It's really hot and cold, and human feelings are cold and warm.It's just half a year without contact, and I can't even hear her voice.

"...I'm Cheng Lili."

"Oh, so it's Lili, wait a minute, Xiaoxuan is taking a shower...how about I ask her to call you back?" The person over there immediately changed his attitude and became amiable in an instant.

"...Auntie, did I interrupt you?" Cheng Lili thought guiltily, she can't be blamed for this, but her mother's voice is too similar.

"It's okay, I got up early, and I'm getting ready to make breakfast not long after my morning exercise."

"Then I won't interfere with Auntie's breakfast. Please tell Zhong Xuan, I'll wait for her call." After hanging up, Cheng Lili ran to the bathroom to wash up.

It was still early before going to work, and breakfast should not be too sloppy. Cheng Lili thought about it and decided to boil eggs and oatmeal.Just about to go to the kitchen to boil water, the phone rang, and Zhong Xuan's name flashed on the screen.

"Hello, Zhong Xuan?"

"Nonsense, didn't you tell me to call you?" The voice on the other end of the phone was a little rougher than before, and Cheng Lili silently reviewed in her heart that she should not admit the wrong person.

"I have something to discuss with you..."

"Say!"

"...It's not convenient on the phone. Are you free in the afternoon? Let's go out for a drink together?"

The other end was silent for a few seconds, not sure if she was hesitating or thinking, Cheng Lili couldn't help but feel a little nervous, after all, there are no permanent friends in this world, when pop songs are singing, the sky is always blue and the days go by too slowly, you It is always said that there is no prospect of graduation after graduation, and they will go their separate ways in a blink of an eye.

When we are together, we talk about everything, laughing and laughing, thinking that this will last forever, until we are separated, because of one or another reason, we are gradually alienated, and one day we meet again on the corner of the street, full of surprises, and I don’t know where to start. , Only to find that there is actually nothing to say to each other.

Cheng Lili lowered her eyes and smiled disappointedly: "It's fine if it's inconvenient."

"It's a P! Didn't you have something to discuss with me, okay, just this afternoon, where do you want to meet?" Zhong Xuan's way of speaking was still so rude, which immediately made Cheng Lili feel more cordial.

"In the old place, right?" They used to go to a milk tea house called "Inn Station" after school to have a drink, talk about girlish feelings, talk about life events, and secretly sign their names with a ballpoint pen under the chair they often sit on. .

"What time?"

"How about five o'clock?"

"Okay, see you then." The other end hung up after finishing speaking.

Cheng Lili was very excited when she heard the beeping busy tone.

Zhong Xuan was her best friend when she was a student. She had a bright personality, informality, and generosity. Whenever Cheng Lili encountered unsatisfactory things, she would confide in her. Even if she couldn't get help, at least she could get comfort.

Cheng Lili went to work full of expectations, and then left work full of expectations. She spent the whole morning thinking about what she was going to say. It was a not too long story... Maybe it should be called an accident. Too plain like water flowing in a cliché.

I was already worried about Gu Jianyin's matter, but now I am worried about how to tell others about it. Life is indeed full of infinite cups.

When we came to the appointed place, the boss was still the same boss, but the decoration was different. The dining tables and chairs looked brand new, and there were several pots of exquisite crab claws hanging from every window. There was also a wooden floor on the ground. up.

Cheng Lili looked left and right, found a familiar figure by the window, and ran over excitedly.

"I'm not late." Cheng Lili spoke before Zhong Xuan could speak.

The other party was looking at the menu, when he heard the voice, he looked up at her, and smiled slightly: "I know."

Although Zhong Xuan can't say that time is like gold, she hates people who are not punctual. Every time she has a date with someone, she will automatically arrive 15 minutes earlier.

"Look at what to drink." Zhong Xuan pushed the menu in front of Cheng Lili, Cheng Lili took the menu and looked at it, her face turned green.

The boss really wants to keep up with the trend. The type and specification are not well written in small, medium and large, so he wants to add the word "cup" after it is redundant.

Just as he was gnashing his teeth, the boss came over and asked with a pleasant smile, "What do you two want?"

Zhong Xuan opened his mouth and said, "I want buttery red bean balls, big cups."

Cheng Lili: "..."

The boss turned around and asked, "Where is this lady?"

Cheng Lili put down the menu and pointed to Zhong Xuan: "Same as her."

"It's also a big cup?"

Cheng Lili nodded silently.

After the boss left, Zhong Xuan asked, "What's the matter with you, can you tell me?"

"...According to the process, shouldn't we talk about the past first?"

"According to the procedure, if you want to see me, you have to make an appointment with my secretary."

Cheng Lili's eyes widened immediately, and she looked Zhong Xuan up and down carefully: "You actually have a secretary? What is your position now? Manager? Director? Chairman?"

"..." Zhong Xuan glanced at her, "Will you tell me or not, and I'm leaving."

"Say, let me tell you, can you be a little patient?" Cheng Lili was worried that she would do what she said, and quickly got to the point, "About two weeks ago, I was at work and the weather was a bit cold..."

"Get to the point." Zhong Xuan interrupted her.

"Someone is chasing me." Cheng Lili said, "What should I do?"

Zhong Xuan was stunned, as if a little surprised, she squinted her eyes and looked at Cheng Lili steadily, her eyes were full of doubts.

Cheng Lili was unhappy: "Can't I be pursued by someone?"

"No," Zhong Xuan shook her head, "I wonder why you didn't agree right away."

"what do you mean?"

"It's rare that someone finally takes a fancy to you, shouldn't you catch him right away?"

"...Can we still be friends?" Cheng Lili was angry.

The boss came over with two bowls of dessert, put a bowl in front of each person, and said with a smile: "Please take it slowly."

Zhong Xuan said, "This meal is up to you."

"Why?" Cheng Lili was about to pick up the spoon, but put it down again when she heard this.

"You specially asked me to come out to celebrate, not who you invited?" Zhong Xuan took a slow mouthful of red bean paste, and his face immediately revealed a look of joy, "It's still so delicious."

"Who said it was a celebration? I came here to discuss countermeasures." Cheng Lili has no appetite for anything now, and keeps stirring absently with a spoon.

"Don't you still want to reject her?" Zhong Xuan seemed to have heard something unbelievable, and poked Cheng Lili's head across the table, "There is no such shop after passing that village, hurry up while chasing you, that person is still Take him down quickly in a dizzy state, whether it is drinking or taking (ahem) drugs, this matter should be finalized as soon as possible, so as not to have long nights and dreams in the future."

Cheng Lili: "..."

What does it mean to make a bad friend by mistake? This is a tragic case.

"Aren't you curious about who is chasing me?" Cheng Lili began to feel that it was a wrong decision for her to ask Zhong Xuan to discuss a solution.

"Who?" Zhong Xuan asked cooperatively.

"woman."
