Fire to the Abyss

Chapter 38 Ripples

The answer is naturally no, Xia Yan hastily withdrew his gaze, staring at the scenery outside the window in a daze.Yin Le'er just finished putting on her makeup. When she packed up her tools and looked up, she found that the wingman, who had been fighting high just a second ago, had turned into a melancholy handsome man. She tapped his empty glass with her finger in dissatisfaction, "Are you What's the matter, little brother?"

Xia Yan inadvertently struggled with "Brother Le"'s arrogant tone, lowered his voice and said, "Wait..."

Xia Yan just got up when he was interrupted by someone. A gentle, low, and bewitching voice came from above his head.

"Sir, ma'am, good evening. Our shop is holding an event today, and we will give you two cups of 'Fengshen's Kiss' as a gift. I wish you both a pleasant evening."

While talking, Lu Yuan put two glasses of brightly colored wine on the tray in front of the two of them, with just the right smile on his face, and decent movements, really like a well-trained waiter.

Lu Yuan put away the wine, but didn't leave immediately, put away the tray and stood aside, staring at Xia Yan, just smiled and didn't speak.

Xia Yan's scalp tingled from being stared at for a while, and he wished he could jump directly from the window.

"Handsome guy!" Yin Leer's high-pitched cry pierced the embarrassment between the two of them. She stood up from the table and chair with a "whoosh" and opened her arms to grab Lu Yuan's arm, but he dodged to the side. Only one corner of the clothes was caught, "Handsome guy, do you remember me?"

As soon as she spoke, the expressions of the remaining two people changed to one of astonishment.From Yin Leer's shining eyes when she looked at Lu Yuan, Xia Yan immediately understood that the person she said fell in love at first sight was Lu Yuan.

So what's the situation now, the blind date is a game master who doesn't play cards according to common sense, and the person he has a crush on is quite a headache, and he is also asked to be a wingman to help capture him?

Xia Yan felt that his brain cells died heroically in such an instant, and then with a "click", his brain stopped functioning completely.

Lu Yuan frowned imperceptibly, pulled Yin Leer's hands off his body, and calmly took a step towards Xia Yan, distanced himself from Yin Leer, then smiled kindly at her: "Miss, we know each other ?"

Yin Le'er frantically gestured and said, "I, we met last time in the morning rush hour traffic jam. I asked you for your contact information, and you said you're not interested in women..."

Xia Yan just took a mouthful of "Fengshen's Kiss" into his mouth, before he tasted it, he was choked by Yin Le'er's words and spewed out. Fortunately, only the mint on the table was affected.

Lu Yuan quickly took a closer look at Yin Le'er, but he didn't have any impression of her appearance, but she had indeed seen this pair of earrings that could flash into the eyes.

"Wow, what a coincidence."

Although he said so, Lu Yuan's tone didn't fluctuate at all.He took out a wet tissue from his pocket, unwrapped it, and naturally approached Xia Yan's wet mouth, but Xia Yan stopped him halfway.Xia Yan grabbed his wrist, took out a tissue from his hand, wiped it all over his face, then let go of his wrist, and gave him a murderous look.

Lu Yuan looked down at the distinctive fingerprints on his wrist, and smiled even brighter.

A waiter with good eyesight immediately came over to tidy up, nodded slightly to Lu Yuan respectfully, called "Boss Lu", then took the tray in Lu Yuan's hand and left quickly.

"Handsome guy, you are the boss here, can you give me your business card? I will come here often. In fact, since I met you at Gaofeng that morning, I have always wanted to see you again. I have thought about it carefully. Yes, you must have lied to me when you said that you are not interested in women, because you are not interested in me, so I gave up, but in the end, you reminded me to pay attention to safety, you are so gentle, I will sink immediately. I am not trying to develop with you It has become an affair relationship, neither of us is married, you see, can we start to develop now, if you think it is too fast, we can start as boyfriend and girlfriend..."

Yin Le'er spoke at the side and quickly published the communication declaration that had been rehearsed countless times, but Lu Yuan didn't listen to a single word.He doesn't know what's wrong with him. In this kind of public place where fish and dragons are mixed together, even if he sees Xia Yan, he usually pretends not to know him. This is safer for both of them, and Xia Yan will cooperate very well not to talk to him. .But this day, when he saw Xia Yan's small broken car in the parking lot, he was almost happy, and his eyes subconsciously searched for him.He searched all over the first floor, but couldn't find that person's figure, so he was sure that Xia Yan was on the second floor.He climbed the steps like a pilgrimage, imagining Xia Yan's appearance over and over - where would he sit?What kind of wine will you order?In what position are you holding the wine glass?

Just as his mind was filled with these meaningless questions, the answer came into his eyes unexpectedly.

Xia Yan was sitting in the position where Lu Yuan had sat alone countless times, and he was reaching out to lift the hair next to the ear of the woman opposite him. He had also felt that hand before. The movement of stroking the hair must be very gentle and careful, which can make people feel An illusion of being cherished.

At that moment, the beast named "Jealousy" in Lu Yuan's heart suddenly broke free from the rein and opened its teeth and claws.He desperately wanted to know who that woman was and what relationship she had with Xia Yan.However, even though he broke free from the rein, the beast was still trapped in the cage of "reason". Thanks to the good self-control ability formed by suppressing himself for many years, he couldn't do anything special.

The seat Yin Leer chose was actually a four-seater, with a small double sofa on both sides of the table, and she and Xia Yan sat facing each other.Lu Yuan automatically filtered Yin Leer's "affectionate" confession, sat down next to Xia Yan, then leaned over and hooked Xia Yan's shoulder, and said in a rather intimate tone: "Captain Xia, who is this beauty, you are not good introduce?"

Xia Yan had a toothache, didn't this person hear what Yin Le'er said just now?

Yin Leer's red lips parted into an "O": "Oh? Do you know each other?"

Lu Yuan glanced at Xia Yan first, then shifted his gaze to Yin Le'er when Xia Yan's mouth twitched obviously, and nodded slowly, "We are quite familiar."

Although the corner of Lu Yuan's mouth was always smiling, Yin Le'er seemed to be pierced by Lu Yuan's direct gaze, which made her tremble unconsciously.

Xia Yan stretched out his hand to pat Lu Yuan's hand on his shoulder, and whispered with a sullen face, "Can't you just pretend you didn't see it?"

Lu Yuan seemingly unintentionally blew hot air into Xia Yan's ear, and whispered, "You always dress like a traffic light, it's hard not to see it."

Xia Yan: "..."

Xia Yan left a fist mark on Lu Yuan's coat, looked himself up and down, and doubted the godmother's taste for the first time.

At this time, Yin Leer gave Xia Yan a "understanding" look, and introduced himself: "My name is Yin Leer, and Xia Yan is my brother."

Xia Yan glanced at the girl who was smiling silly on the opposite side, and covered her face with her hands: No, you are my brother.

Sure enough, Lu Yuan propped his head up and stared at Xia Yan with malicious intent: "Captain Xia, it's your fault, I've known you for so many years, and you didn't tell me that you still have such a beautiful sister, it's not righteous. "

After finishing speaking, he blinked at Xia Yan, and said with his lips from an angle that Yin Le'er couldn't see: "Are you on a blind date? It doesn't seem to be going well."

Looking at this cheap face, Xia Yan suddenly wanted to carry out Yin Le'er's plan and knock him unconscious.

"Well," Xia Yan took a sip of wine to cover up his embarrassment. He raised his head when he received a hint from Yin Leer's crazy eyes. He covered his face again, and continued the second half of the sentence with a desperate tone: "Well, it's my sister, who has been afraid to tell you because she is too beautiful, sister, listen to me, this person is not suitable for you, real."

Lu Yuan smiled inexplicably, didn't speak, and didn't look away.

Yin Le'er was very angry at this wingman who suddenly changed his mind. What about the basic trust between people?I thought Xia Yan's identity as an acquaintance was more suitable for combat, but Xia Yan flew back in a blink of an eye, and even tried to shoot himself down!

The first people's policeman I knew was so unjust, and the "gentle" male god who was blindly obsessed with him was still unmoved after hearing his confession.No, it wasn't just that he was unmoved, he had an expression of staying out of the matter, and he didn't really look at Yin Le'er.

No matter how careless Yin Leer is, she is still a girl. Although she has always been quite bold in terms of feelings, she has not yet reached the level where she can casually say something similar to a declaration of marriage proposal.When she said these words, she mustered up her courage, and even drank a glass of wine to strengthen her courage.

However, without knowing anything, Xia Yan easily labeled her as "unsuitable", which made her angry and wronged.But she didn't know what to say, so she could only stare at Xia Yan with wide eyes, trying to call back his conscience as a wingman.

For a moment, the eyes of both of them fell on Xia Yan, and he felt that all the pores of his body had been pricked by needles.

If everything is divided into black, white and gray, Yin Le'er is undoubtedly white, and Lu Yuan was also white before, but for some reason, when he stepped into the black world, he was soaked by the filthy world and became an adult. a gray person.Of course he can't just watch a white person fall in love with gray, just like a person falling in love with the abyss, one day it will be swallowed up.

Of course, he couldn't explain the reason to Yin Le'er, he could only turn his eyes to the instigator of the incident for help.

Xia Yan raised his arms to cover his lips, and said to Lu Yuan with his lips: "Quickly say something to make her give up."

Lu Yuan slightly raised his eyelids to indicate that he had accepted the message, but he still didn't move.

Under Yin Le'er's complex eyes of grievance and resentment, Xia Yan only felt that every minute and every second was extremely tormented.He lowered his eyelids, and his eyes unconsciously fell on Lu Yuan's right hand that was slanted on the side of his thigh.The hand was beautiful, with well-defined joints and slender fingers.It's just that the master is not very pleasing, and the eyes that fall on him are somewhat playful.

Xia Yan suddenly stretched out his left hand hanging under the table, and pinched Lu Yuan's wrist.Xia Yan felt the moment he touched Lu Yuan, his arm trembled obviously, but he didn't break free, just let Xia Yan pinch.Xia Yan took advantage of the situation and pulled his whole arm into his bosom, then tightly held his slender four fingers with his palm, and drew vertical lines on Lu Yuan's palm with his thumb.Xia Yan's nails are always cut flush with the flesh, and they are not lethal, but they are quite strong, and the place where they are scratched must be painful and numb. Lu Yuan has never been able to bear this kind of "capital punishment".

Sure enough, when Xia Yan drew the seventh vertical line, Lu Yuan spoke.

"Miss, let me introduce myself. My name is Lu Mingyuan, and I can be regarded as the owner of this bar with a poor business."

Yin Le'er finally shifted his gaze to Lu Yuan, Xia Yan let out a long breath as if he had been pardoned.

Yin Le'er whispered: "Well... I, I know your name, I wrote down your license plate number, asked a friend to look it up, and I also looked up the phone number, but I couldn't get through."

Yin Le'er's voice became softer as she spoke, Lu Yuan smiled in surprise, Xia Yan silently lamented that a woman's intelligence is astonishing at this time.

"That's really embarrassing. There are too many harassing calls here, so I set it not to answer strange calls. Miss Yin, there is a reason for Team Xia to say that we are not suitable. I am not the kind of person you imagined. I believe you will understand after getting in touch with me. Team Xia and I have known each other for a short time, and we must have deeply touched each other. Instead of disappointing you after we get in touch, it’s better not to date at the beginning, what do you think?”

"No, no," Yin Le'er retorted hastily, "You've never been with me before, so how do you know I'll be disappointed?"

"Okay, let me introduce myself in detail. As for me, my parents died, and my father left a large inheritance. This bar was opened with the money he left. I am not married, because it is too restrictive , To sum it up in Team Xia’s words, I’m a chaotic man-woman relationship. I’ve never pursued anything in my life. My only hobby is indulgence, and my life-long pursuit is to eat and wait to die. Is there anything worth entrusting to such a person for life?”

Yin Le'er bit her lower lip tightly: "No, no, you are very gentle, have a nice voice, and a good-looking person. You are not such a person."

"Okay, then I admit that the above are just excuses. In fact, I have someone I like." Lu Yuan smiled, his eyes suddenly sank, "I am thinking about it, tossing and turning."

When he said this, the white light on the top just moved over and rotated slowly, covering his whole body in a soft halo, as if a layer of frost had formed on his body, which made him look extra special It was cold, like a traveler who just came through the deep cold, but Xia Yan felt a little bit of heat from the overlapping palms of the two of them, almost rushing into his chest along his palms.
