The next day, Yi Ran went to Ji Shui's office to return the keys.The auction house is in the auxiliary building, and the restoration room is in the main building. The distance between the two places is not too far. There is a long corridor connecting them, with green plants on both sides. It is very pleasant to walk here in your spare time.

When Yi Ran came in, Ji Shui was on the phone, and it was hard to interrupt her work, so when she saw Yi Ran coming in, she made a gesture to ask her to wait for a while.

Yi Ran didn't respond to her gestures, she put the keys on the table and turned away, not dragging her feet at all, looking really heartless.Ji Shui was very depressed, and deeply felt that this was the retribution she deserved, and she had a terrible headache.

For the next three days, Yi Ran and Ji Shui didn't see each other again.Both of them had mixed feelings. Yi Ran was a little afraid of seeing Ji Shui, afraid that Ji Shui would make waves in her peaceful life again.Ji Shui needs to calm down. Before her father's accident, she has been a proud son of heaven with a smooth life. The strong genes, favorable living environment and her own superior conditions bestowed on her by her parents directly lead her to be too idealistic and unreasonable when dealing with relationships. Overconfident, even self-confident.She has always thought that her relationship is like her studies and career, as long as she is willing to work hard, her future will be bright, but she forgot that relationship is a matter between two people, and neither party can achieve success without cooperation.This kind of self-confidence like a master has accompanied her for 30 years, but now the beautiful life she had dreamed of for five years was suddenly broken, and she was very upset.

Yi Ran is married after all, she doesn't want to disturb other people's families, but she is so unwilling, after all, Yi Ran still wears the watch she gave her all the time, doesn't she?Thinking of this, her heart ached again. How did that poor girl spend these five years?At the beginning, I shouldn't have listened to my mother so much and didn't make a single phone call. Looking back, I was so selfish and cruel.Now, she has to reflect on her own shortcomings, and also think about what to do next. The past is always past, no matter whether it is right or wrong, and the future is still long, so she must think about it carefully.

She remembered that Xiang Shang was one of Yi Ran's few friends.Yi Ran has few friends. It's not that she doesn't like to make friends. On the contrary, she is very popular among her classmates. It's just that there are not many people who can catch her eyes. This seemingly gentle girl is actually very difficult to get in touch with. , This is something she knew from the first day she met Yi Ran.Yi Ran mentioned Xiang Shang to her quite a few times. Although she had never met her face to face, she remembered the name deeply—Xiang Shang, he was positive and unforgettable.Coincidentally, Xiang Shang was her soldier, and she wanted to inquire about Yi Ran's situation over the years from the side, so she aimed at Xiang Shang.It's just that she has just joined the job not long ago, and she is not familiar with Xiang Shang, so she can't talk too much about things other than work for the time being.

At 11:50 on Friday, Yi Ran put down her pen and was going to eat in the cafeteria. Zhou Yuxiao came over on time and wanted to have lunch with her, but Yi Ran refused. She didn’t want to give Zhou Yuxiao any room for fantasy. .Zhou Yu pouted, and went to eat with Feng Zijing again, Feng Zijing looked disgusted: "You can see how thoughtful you are, so you like being a mistress so much?"

Feng Zijing had seen Zhou Yuxiao's attributes early in the morning, and Zhou Yuxiao was also very generous, she didn't hide it, and she admitted it when people asked her.Feng Zijing was a little admirable about this - admiration for this kind of ambiguous girl who didn't know how to protect her privacy at all.

Zhou Yuxiao said: "Ghosts like to be mistresses, I just can't help but want to communicate with her more."

"Excuse me!" Feng Zijing added a bit of contempt to his disgusted expression: "If you want to communicate with others, you have to be willing! If you continue like this, everyone will be annoyed, do you have any brains!"

"real or fake?"

"Change your position and think about it. A person you don't like keeps pestering you, isn't it bothering you?"

"I'm not pestering her all the time! I just want to have lunch together."

"A piece of rotten wood. Huh, Baibai has eaten more salt for three years than I have. You're really an old woman in a chicken coop, idiot! You'd better reflect on your behavior."

Zhou Yuxiao shook her ponytail and looked serious, looking really reflective.

When Yi Ran went to the cafeteria, she met Ji Shui and Xiang Shang.These days, Ji Shui and Xiang Shang are often together. Xiang Shang knows that Ji Shui is the good friend Yi Ran made when she was in the third year of graduate school. The friend of a friend is the boss. I don’t know if it is a blessing or a curse. In his own head, he thought that in the future, Yi Ran would have to praise her more in front of Ji Shui, so that he could get a promotion and a salary or something.

Xiang Shang looks ordinary but has a good personality. She is straightforward and decisive in dealing with work problems, which Ji Shui likes very much.Last year, Xiang Shang cut his hair short under Yi Ran's suggestion, and his whole person suddenly changed. Some people are naturally suitable for short hair, and Xiang Shang is like this. She has a pear-shaped face, and short hair is much more beautiful than long hair.

When the three of them met, Xiang Shang spoke first, and she said, "Yi Ran, how busy are you these days? You don't want to hang out with me anymore, let's have lunch together today."

Yi Ran didn't speak, Ji Shui glanced at her and said, "Let's eat together."

Yi Ran still didn't speak, Ji Shui took it as her acquiescence.

Qi Ruizhai's food is still very good, the environment is good and the price is cheap, everyone from the president to the temporary workers will come here to eat.The three of them ordered the dishes, sat down at an empty table with their plates, looked at the things on Yi Ran's plate to Shang, and clicked their tongues: "Good guy, this green piece doesn't have any meaty smell, Yi Ran, you should go and become a nun." .”

Yi Ran said, "I just want to eat some vegetarian food today."

Ji Shui looked at her dinner plate, stewed tofu with mushrooms, rapeseed and cabbage, it was indeed vegetarian enough, without thinking, she took the biggest piece of hairtail from her plate and gave it to her, then bowed her head to eat.

Yi Ran was fascinated by staring at the octopus, and then glared at Ji Shui. She didn't even ask if she liked it or not. She always made decisions on her own regardless of other people's feelings. She couldn't change it in her life, right?

With Xiang still alive, Yi Ran didn't want to return the hairtail, and she didn't have the bad habit of wasting food, so she ate it in small bites.Seeing that she had finished eating, Ji Shui took out a tissue from her handbag and gave it to her expressionlessly. Yi Ran couldn't refuse, so she stretched out her left hand to take it, her fingertips were about to touch the tissue, but Ji Shui held her hand , Ji Shui noticed that she didn't have a ring on her hand, she felt ecstatic and doubtful, why didn't she wear a ring?Not married at all or unhappily married?

The hand was pulled, and Yi Ran's heart skipped a beat, and she withdrew her hand from the familiar yet unfamiliar touch.Seeing Ji Shui's question, he said calmly, "It's just inconvenient to wear a ring while working."

"Really? I hope." Ji Shui still had no expression on his face, and put another hairtail on her plate.

Yi Ran glared at her again.

Ji Shui turned a blind eye, just bit her chopsticks, took out her mobile phone and dialed Yiran's number. They belong to the same company, so it's easy to find each other's number. She had Yiran's number early in the morning, and she knew that Yiran definitely didn't have it. her.

Yi Ran's cell phone rang, and Ji Shui hung up when she saw that the strange number was about to answer, and she said without looking up, "Mine, save it."

Yi Ran lost her temper at all, so she took a hard bite of the fish.

Xiang Shang noticed their interaction and frowned slightly.

The meal was a bit weird, Ji Shui and Yi Ran didn't talk, Ji Shui was Xiang Shang's immediate boss, and Xiang Shang didn't talk too much, so the lunch ended without saying much.

After eating, Ji Shui went back to the office first. After she left, Xiang Shang asked Yi Ran, "Aren't you and Ji Shui good friends? Why don't you talk?"

Yi Ran said casually: "I haven't seen you for so many years, I'm not familiar with you. Most people are like this, aren't they?"

Xiang Shang disagreed: "It's also worth it, just like the two of us, no matter how many years we haven't seen each other, we won't feel unfamiliar when we meet again."

"That's right, it's a scorer." Yi Ran felt a little emotional, maybe being friends lasted longer than being lovers, but how could the two who were once lovers return to the position of friends?If you can really return to the original position gracefully and unrestrainedly, it can only prove that you didn't love deeply enough.

Xiang Shang kicked Yi Ran's foot: "By the way, I still want you to speak well of me in front of Ji Shui. Seeing how much energy you two have, my plan will probably fail."

"Do you need a good word from me if everyone loves flowers and sees flowers blooming? She must know where you are capable."

"That's the way it is, but who doesn't want to get close to the boss. I heard that we have an assistant to the general manager and a senior business manager in two days. I have a sense of crisis."

"Okay, you're getting pregnant, don't worry about it," Yi Ran patted her forehead, and said, "You're in your early 30s, so you have to distinguish between priorities. Since you don't plan to dink, the big thing that day is fine." Children are big things."

"That's right, but it's true, I've been trying to get pregnant for half a year, why haven't I moved?" Xiang Shang rubbed his belly: "Is it because my land is bad or Xiao Sa's seed is bad? I'm already 32, and Xiao Sa is also 33." Now, is it true that the older you get, the harder it is to conceive? The parts are all old?"

Yi Ran laughed: "Don't worry, your land is very fertile, and Xiao Sa's seeds are also very good. It's because you are too nervous. If you relax, there may be surprises one day."

"Well, that's all. How about you? You're not going to have one?"

"It's not like you don't know that Hu Xiaobing only loves heroes and not women."

"Yes, I don't understand why you agreed to marry him in the first place."

"Xiang Shang, if..." Thinking that Xiang Shang and Ji Shui are in the same department, and Ji Shui is such a smart person, Yi Ran hesitated and said, "If Ji Shui talks about me, try not to talk to her." Talk more about me, especially don't talk about Hu Xiaobing's sexuality, okay?"

"Oh, I almost forgot if you didn't mention this." Xiang Shang interrogated Yi Ran like a prisoner, "What's wrong with you and Ji Shui? Although you didn't talk much during lunch, I still felt It's weird."

Yi Ran felt that there was no need to hide Xiang Shang, so she simply said: "I dated her, in the third year of research, and then she left, and there was no news for five years, and then came again, and then there was no more."

The amount of information contained in the simple narration is too large, Xiang Shang digested it for a while, and then said: "I said, so that's the case. I said that you just graduated from the third year of graduate school, why did you look like that... Ji Shui is so big You can live in the house without charging rent...and you and Hu Xiaobing, how could an ordinary woman marry him...I said it! That's how it is!"

"Well, that's it. Do you have... an opinion? To me?" Yi Ran was like a child who did something wrong.

"Yes! That's great!" Xiang Shang jumped up and hit Yi Ran: "How did you tell me until now? Did you regard me as your best friend? When you just graduated, you were full of energy except for work. , when you get off work, don’t you feel sad for the spring and autumn? When I ask you what’s wrong, you just say that you are fine, and the reason why you don’t tell the truth is because you are afraid that I will think of you? "

"No, I really didn't want to talk about it at that time."

"How can you talk about it now?"

"Jishui won't let me go easily. Before she makes a decision, she always likes to investigate thoroughly before speaking." Looking at the crabapple tree not far away, Yi Ran said, "She's back, you are her soldier, she probably will Ask about my situation, but I don't want to get involved with her anymore, so when you talk about me, try to say as little as possible."

"Okay, I promise you." Xiang Shang dragged out a long "ah" and silenced for two seconds before saying, "Looking at Ji Shui's attitude towards you today, I think she still loves you very much." .”

"Perhaps. It's hard to fall in love with someone with her personality, and once she falls in love, it's hard to let go." Yi Ran lowered her head slightly and said, "But I don't care anymore."

"Why did she leave you all at once and have no news for five years?"

"I don't know. I think she must have her own difficulties and reasons. She wants to explain to me, but I don't allow it. I'm afraid she will soften her heart after hearing it. I can't soften my heart any more. "

Xiang Shang recalled Ji Shui's appearance and figure, and then looked at Yi Ran's. He couldn't help rubbing his chin and gossiping: "Actually...you two are quite a match. When we meet these days, I think Ji Shui must follow her father and have a bit of a temper." Strong, born leader, based on my 32 years of life experience, I personally think that once this kind of person does something wrong, he will only use actions to make up for it, and it is difficult to humbly apologize. Although you are also mischievous, you happen to be gentle and gentle. Being led, you... are quite compatible in character."

"You are really a bad friend of mine!" Yi Ran gave her a white look and said, "I can't be more worthy. She is too opinionated, she always makes decisions on her own, doesn't know how to negotiate, and is more authoritarian than Napoleon. Over the years, I It’s hard to get out of the shadows, and I don’t want to die again.”

"Seriously, Yi Ran, have you ever regretted loving her?"

"No regrets."

"Is it her fault?"

"It used to be strange, but now it's not. Is it interesting to blame the age? If you want to blame it, blame it for being too young. It's like the pain of not being able to get toys when I was a child. Now I just think it's funny. When I get old, It might even be one of the fondest memories. Who knows."

"Then... will you still fall in love with someone else?"

"It's hard. After experiencing the vastness of the sea, it's hard to swim in the creek again. It's just that I'm afraid of the water, choking, and drowning, so I don't want to swim anymore."

Yi Ran stretched out her right hand and waved it twice from the air, writing down the invisible "difficulty" and "fear".

The structure is simple and the strokes are continuous, which is cursive script.
