Can't tell the truth from the fake

After a few days of discussions, the cooperation projects with several companies in X City have been negotiated.

With two days left on the [-]th and [-]th holidays, Gu Wen gave a holiday to the employees in the company who were on a business trip together.

If you choose to travel at public expense, you can stay in city X. If you want to go back to city G and wait until the settlement time, you can also receive additional travel compensation.

Lu Xi did not leave City X. At this moment, he was sitting in the Huimin Street Night Market near the Bell Tower, tasting special snacks in the evening breeze.

He gently tore up the half-baked steamed buns, imitating the way of eating at the next table, and sprinkled the steamed buns into the heavy and mellow mutton soup bit by bit.

After a few minutes, the steamed bun slowly absorbed the soup and gradually became fuller. He whistled lightly, scooped it up with a spoon and put it into his mouth.

"Not bad." Lu Xi smacked his lips, and looked at the mutton steamed buns in front of him in surprise. He was a little excited about this special delicacy, which was cooked delicately, the meat was rotten and the soup was thick, and it was fat but not greasy.

"Hey boy, you can eat slowly." The proprietress who came to clear the table smiled and looked at Lu Xi who was spitting, "There are chopped green onions and sugared garlic on the table, which are delicious."

"Sorry, I don't eat onions and garlic." Lu Xi put down the white porcelain bowl in his hand and said.

The proprietress smiled knowingly, and packed up the dishes to serve another wave of guests. Lu Xi bit the disposable chopsticks, looked at the bustling crowd on the antique street, sniffed the aroma of delicious food in the air with the tip of his nose and smiled happily.

At this time, he suddenly saw the slender and thin back of the opposite paving line through the gap in the crowd, and his eyes widened unconsciously.

"Gu Wen?" After Lu Xi threw down the bowl and chopsticks to pay the bill in a hurry, he ran to the roujiamo stand, and the familiar figure turned around when he heard his call.

"Lu... Chinning." Gu Wen looked at the black-haired and gray-eyed mixed-race man, and the hesitation and disbelief in his eyes flashed away, but Lu Xi didn't notice it.

He just smiled and asked: "What a coincidence, Mr. Gu, do you want to try the Roujiamo?"

Gu Wen recalled the familiar call in his ears, and he was somewhat nostalgic for Chinning's low and hoarse voice, which was very similar to Lu Xi, but more disgusted.

This is the person who should have the least similarities with Lu Xi.

With a population of 75 billion in the world, why is this culprit in front of us?

——Appearing in front of his eyes all the time, reminding him of the mistakes he has made in this way.

"Hey, hey!" Lu Xi saw that Gu Wen didn't respond for a long time, and waved his hand in front of his eyes, "Are you hungry? I'll go buy you something else. You've watched CCTV food shows before. Too many people."

"Not hungry." Gu Wen indifferently turned and left the line in front of the Roujiamo shop, and Lu Xi followed in a bit of a panic.

"What's wrong with you?" Lu Xi looked at Gu Wen's slightly frowned brows, and said hesitantly, "You're angry."

The impatient expression on Gu Wen's face deepened, he clenched his fists and wished he could punch this chattering mouth, Ji Chong's exhortations to him were forgotten at this moment.

"What's the matter with you? If you're hungry, I'll treat you to dinner. Smile." Lu Xi tugged at the corner of Gu Wen's clothes slightly worried.

"Shut up, let go." Gu Wen suddenly stopped and shouted emotionally at Lu Xi, "Don't follow me, get out of here."

Gu Wen's eyes were very red, and he couldn't tell whether it was sad or angry, and the blue veins protruding from his neck and shoulders were exposed under the black stand-up collar windbreaker.

Lu Xi was stunned in place, looking at Gu Wen with disgust and disgust in his eyes, his hands and feet gradually became cold, as if his blood had also started to freeze.

"...Okay, okay." He looked at the figure that was fading away, smiled at himself for a while, and said in a low voice, "Who am I to you, I'm so self-indulgent."

But at some point, caring about that person's every move has become a habit rooted in his memory.

And even knowing that there was no possibility, he couldn't suppress the throbbing in the deepest part of his heart.

Countless pedestrians passed by in the bustling Huimin Street, and he saw clear smiles on the faces of every blurred face. After all, he was the only one left in the dazzling lights.

He walked slowly towards the hotel, the previous interest dissipated, leaving only unspeakable bitterness and heaviness.

The street lamps illuminate his mottled lonely and wandering shadow, which does not overlap with anyone.

Some people say that seemingly coincidental encounters are often just the result of painstaking efforts by one of them.

When Lu Xi saw Gu Wen standing against the wall and smoking in the dark in some remote alley behind the side door of the hotel, he couldn't help but think of this sentence.

The shoulder-to-shoulder encounter on Huimin Street was because he heard about Gu Wen's itinerary in advance, and the encounter at this time was because he chose the one closest to the scenic spot according to Gu Wen's previous preference for this hotel chain.

He once imagined that he would have the opportunity to walk through the streets and alleys of the ancient capital with Gu Wen, and appreciate the cultural customs of this strange city together.

But only fantasy.

He looked at Gu Wen with his cold eyes, and the orange flame was reflected in his temperatureless eyes on the cigarette butt held between his fingertips.

There was no sound.

Gu Wen walked forward indifferently, and the moment he threw down the cigarette butt, he suddenly heard a hoarse and trembling roar——

"Gu Wen be careful!!"

Gu Wen turned around suddenly, and he saw dozens of people dressed in black and holding iron bars rushing towards them!

Lu Xi frowned tightly, his eyesight was seriously affected in the night without street lights, he could only vaguely see these uninvited guests running towards him by the faint light of the hotel in the distance!

"Gu Wen! Behind you!"

He suddenly jumped in the direction of Gu Wen, raised his hand to block the attacks of the men in black around him, and ran at the fastest speed without reservation.

He saw Gu Wen protect his vitals with his left hand and lift his foot to kick away a man in black who was jumping at him, and with some difficulty dodged the iron rod that another man swung at him.

Lu Xi's eyes were tearing and his eyes were bloodshot. He tapped his toes to the ground, kicked off the attacker blocking him with his right leg, and slid his body backwards. He slammed his right elbow diagonally backward, followed by a muffled sound. From time to time, a man in black fell to the ground when the hum sounded.

"Who are you?!" Lu Xi finally crossed all obstacles and came to Gu Wen's side.Standing in front of Gu Wen, he opened his arms and clenched his fists tightly, and blocked the man with his not-so-tall and strong back. His cold gray eyes stared at the man in black surrounding them and asked fiercely. .

"Chinning is really a noble man who forgets things. We just met in the United States, but within a few months, I forgot about me."

A woman with an exquisite figure walked in front of him from the darkness, her charming voice carried a strange rhythm in the dense night, her bright red and full lips curled up in a cruel arc, and she gently spoke to the earphone Open your mouth.

"Sir, Objective One is surrounded. Also, there is another Objective."

"It's you." After seeing the woman's face clearly, Lu Xi's eyes turned cold. He recognized those people who besieged him in the United States that time.

"Mr. was very upset when you ran away last time." The woman seemed to remember Lu Xi's teasing with her words at that time, with a stern expression on her face, "This time you are dragging a burdensome boss, and you seem to be very incompetent How about it, let me see how you escape?!"

"—Do it!!"
