if send you a book

"I bought four flavors, including tiramisu coffee cheese, jasmine green grapes, chestnut cocoa, taro mash Oreo, which one do you want to eat first?"

Ning Xi looked at the cake she had put out, then looked at the time, and glanced at Liang Xinhe.

Liang Xinhe smiled knowingly: "I know, I know, it's a bit late, but I just suddenly want to eat."

Ning Xi nodded: "I'm going to make some tea."

"Thank you, sorry for the trouble."

"Would you like something else to drink?"

"Yes, I want to drink the bayberry wine from last time."

When Ning Xi went to make tea, Liang Xinhe looked at the space where she was alone just now.

There is a book on the sofa, the cover says "Lonely Pond".

Hmm, haven't seen it.

Liang Xinhe glanced at the kitchen with a smile, and then browsed her bookshelf. The collection of books is really rich.

"You have a lot of unknown books here..."

Ning Xi came out with something, heard this sentence, and saw Liang Xinhe's smile in his eyes.

She paused, and then said: "Sometimes the publishing house sends me some sample books from authors."

"Wow, it's great to be an editor." Liang Xinhe had no doubts.

Ning Xi looked at her, pursed her lower lips, and sighed secretly, the more she delayed, the more she couldn't find a chance to speak.

"I've eaten all these flavors, you can choose what you like to eat, oh, you can't eat the mashed taro, leave it to me."

"...Then I'll try the chestnut flavor."

Ning Xi picked up a fork and took a bite. The rich chestnut aroma melted on the tip of her tongue, and the aftertaste was slightly sweet.

"Try Jasmine's?"

The two sat facing each other, Liang Xinhe sat on the single sofa, his pupils were black and shining, he looked at her expectantly, picked up the shared knife, and cut a piece for her.

Ning Xi lowered her gaze, avoiding her gaze for a while, and took a sip of tea: "Why don't you eat?"

"Oh, I'll drink this..." Liang Xinhe had just finished drinking a glass of bayberry wine, his cheeks were a little flushed, and he let out a slight breath.

I don't know if it's because of drinking, or because Ning Xi is here, Liang Xinhe feels his heart is beating fast.

She glanced at Ning Xi, waiting for her to say something, but Ning Xi seemed to be eating the cake very attentively. She didn't slide the fork fast and didn't eat much, but she was very focused.

No one mentioned watching the show, nor did they speak.

Liang Xinhe drank another glass of bayberry wine, and at the same time her WeChat vibrated unwillingly.

Liang Xinhe slid open the screen, and there was a friend request: "Sister Liang, let's get to know each other again by adding WeChat..."

Ning Xi saw Liang Xinhe's face froze, and her facial features froze, so she asked, "What's wrong?"

"Hey." Liang Xinhe put the phone aside and ignored it, "It's a long story."

Ning Xi raised her eyelashes and glanced at her, hesitated to speak, forget it, she can just listen to what she wants to say.

Liang Xinhe took a sip of wine: "Guess who I met at the company today?" She pursed her lips and smiled, "The girl Zhou Yan cheated on, Zhou Yan is my ex's name."

Ning Xi blinked and hummed.

"The girl said that her parents bought her a house and she was looking for a designer. She saw our company on the Internet and came here."

Ning Xi: "She wants you to be her designer?"

"Yes. How could I agree!"

Ning Xi glanced at her mobile phone: "She still wants to add your WeChat?"

"Yes, how could I possibly pass, really..." Liang Xinhe held his chin, "She also said that she broke up with Zhou Yan, and she dumped Zhou Yan, and asked me if I was venting my anger by doing this."

Having said that, the two looked at each other and laughed lightly at the same time.

The two were silent for a few seconds.

Ning Xi scratched the fork on the paper plate and said softly, "...are you still sad now?"

Liang Xinhe was startled, bit his lower lip: "I'm fine now, but my mood is a bit complicated."

Ning Xi stared at her cheeks and put down the fork.

"Actually, if you don't like it anymore, you can break up. The most annoying thing about Zhou Yan is that she found someone else before breaking up with me, especially a girl who is younger and prettier than me. That feeling..."

Liang Xinhe laughed at himself: "We have known each other for nine years and we have been together for seven years. I never thought it would end like this."

"She was my first love. Actually, I never thought about an ideal type before, nor did I ever think about falling in love with a girl. I am a single-parent family. I only think about graduating soon and getting a job soon. This mother It doesn't have to be so hard."

"After getting to know Zhou Yan, I realized that someone's life can be lived so lightly and effortlessly, as described in the novel, only enjoying love and romance, without thinking about life."

"Maybe this is the legendary 'inappropriate household'? Later, she felt that being with me was not new, and she saw the head at a glance-it was true at the time. We bought a house, renovated the house, and had a family. home."

"The house is really beautiful, and it was decorated with great care..." Ning Xi recalled that she and Cousin He went to see the house. The house had a lot of ingenuity, and it must have been specially designed by Liang Xinhe according to Zhou Yan's living habits.

"But I later found out that the house is a home to me, and it's just a house to Zhou Yan. She may still think it's a cage to imprison her..." Liang Xinhe said as the glass emptied again, She snorted lightly.

Ning Xi listened silently, frowning slightly, raised her hand to pour her a cup of tea, and pushed it in front of Liang Xinhe.

"The girl she cheated on is very young, very beautiful, and very cheerful and lively. In fact, she is a bit similar to Zhou Yan when she was younger..."

"Then why did she break up with Zhou Yan?" Ning Xi moved Liang Xinhe's wine glass away.

"Zhou Yan likes to be lively, and especially likes to get together with her group of friends. The girlfriend she made also wants to join in. The girl told me that Zhou Yan's friends are too arrogant, which makes her very uncomfortable..."

Ning Xi sighed inwardly: "They did the same to you before, didn't they?"

Liang Xinhe slid down from the chair and simply sat on the carpet, leaning his flushed cheeks on his knees: "They look down on me even more. They used to run on me in a weird way. I can't remember how many times... "

"Once I heard Ye Yang, Zhou Yan's hair was young, and she said Zhou Yan, why did you find a girl from a small town? It's still a single-parent family. This kind of family is the most troublesome. Lack of love and self-esteem. You are very careful with her, she depends on you for the rest of her life!"

"..."

Ning Xi pressed the center of her eyebrows, and said in a low voice, "What about Zhou Yan's attitude?"

Liang Xinhe straightened up, saw the cup of tea, she smiled, took a sip, opened her lips to say something, then fell silent again.

She worked overtime late at that party, and hurried to the place where she heard these words.

They had only been together for two years at the time, and Liang Xinhe was very nervous about Zhou Yan's friends' impression of him, always cautious, and suddenly heard these words, his mentality collapsed.

It has been so many years, and she still remembers what Ye Yang said word for word, and even more remembers Zhou Yan's reaction at that time, she just laughed and didn't refute for herself.

Even though she was young, she didn't dare to ask Zhou Yan back, fearing that her girlfriend would look down on her too.

After all, she is young, and she will not go to the Zhou Yan party in the future.

Zhou Yan asked her why, but she didn't elaborate, she just said that I don't get along with your group of friends, and what they said made me uncomfortable.

Zhou Yan also said that she was too sensitive and overthinking.

Liang Xinhe was disappointed. Gradually, she didn't even tell her what was on her mind, and was busy with work. After partnering with Han Kailiang and the others to start a company, she was so busy that she didn't have time. It didn't happen overnight.

Liang Xinhe's eyelids were red, and the tip of her nose was also pink, but she bent her lips and smiled, and drank all the tea in the cup.

She didn't answer her own question, but Ning Xi's heart felt numb like suffocation.

"What I didn't expect was that the group of them still treated Zhou Yan's incumbent like this... This girl is much better than me, so she just dumped Zhou Yan," Liang Xinhe laughed, "I got a little angry .”

"...Are you not angry with this girl?"

"It's not about being angry, and it's not about not being angry. Anyway, it's not her, it's someone else." Liang Xinhe smiled, "Anyway, they are destined to be different people. There is no need to know each other. Other colleagues in our company took her orders. Nothing to do."

"Ah."

They each occupied a corner of the living room, face to face, and the conversation reached a point of silence.

Liang Xinhe's eyelashes twitched: "...Is it too sudden to tell you this?"

Ning Xi was silent and shook her head: "It's okay."

Liang Xinhe smiled and murmured, "...Sometimes I also feel that it's a pity to be separated after seven years together."

Ning Xi looked down at her palm, and curled her fingers slightly: "...my ex-girlfriend and I have known each other since high school, and we have known each other for 20 years."

Liang Xinhe was taken aback, and his attention was drawn by her words: "...huh?"

"...No one cheated, it's just that both parties were tired, so they separated."

Liang Xinhe rubbed his fingers uneasily, his chest was so tight that he could only breathe out slowly.

The two fell into a long silence.

During the silence, Ning Xi continued to eat the cake silently, Liang Xinhe moved the pot of bayberry wine over and continued to pour it.Ning Xi raised her eyelashes slightly, resisting the urge to speak.

"Do you think that love has a time limit?" Liang Xinhe's voice recalled in a low voice, and there was a melancholy sound in the air, "No matter how beautiful it is at the beginning, it will eventually disappear..."

Ning Xi was quiet for a moment, then shook her head: "I can't answer this question."

"Then you..." Liang Xinhe bit his lip, his eyelids were half drooping, his voice was like a light feather, "Would you still want to fall in love again?"

She didn't dare to raise her head, but she couldn't distinguish Ning Xi's expression if she didn't raise her head. She really wanted to know her answer, so she forced herself to cast her gaze over.

Ning Xi seemed a little dazed, but suddenly collided with her gaze, and her facial expression was also blank, or it wasn't blank, Liang Xinhe couldn't catch it, and couldn't recognize it.

Her eyes fell and landed on Ning Xi's lips, only then did she realize that her lips were beautifully shaped, with obvious beads, and the color of her plain lips was very light.

She said: "I quite like my status quo, and the others... I haven't thought about it."

Liang Xinhe digested the information in her words word by word, as if a sandstorm was blowing up in her heart at the same time, the din continued, and when the hustle and bustle subsided, her emotions also settled down.

Yes.

understand.

After all 20 years.
