heavy evening light

"It's been so long, I still haven't figured out what you think." Tao Jiang couldn't help asking as soon as he got into the car, "Give up on the great future in the United States and come to the branch to start from scratch, Xi Nan, are you I know No.1."

Xi Nan took the opportunity to glance at Tao Jiang, and asked without answering, "What about you?" He smiled and said, "Why are you back?"

"..." Tao Jiangyu choked, "This is not a college classmate, where are you going and I will go?"

"Tsk!" Xi Nan laughed, looked back to the front again, and said in a calm voice, "Since the day I left the country, I have been waiting to return home."

Tao Jiang was dumbfounded, he vaguely knew what Xi Nan was talking about, so he wisely didn't ask any more questions.Seeing that Tao Jiang fell silent, Xi Nan said amusedly, "Why don't you say anything?"

Tao Jiang looked sideways at Xi Nan, seeing that his expression was normal, he hesitated and said, "Isn't this afraid of poking your heart?"

Knowing Xi Nan for seven years, Tao Jiang naturally knows that there is someone in Xi Nan's heart that he has put away for a long time, and he also knows that Xi Nan did something wrong back then, and has always wanted to ask for forgiveness from that person, but Xi Nan has been looking for that person for several years , but there is no news about him.

"It's okay." Xi Nan shook his head and said, "This is normal."

Tao Jiang sighed, "Did you go to him this time too?"

Xi Nan pursed his lips tightly and said nothing, but seeing Xi Nan like this, Tao Jiang had an answer to his question in his heart, knowing that Xi Nan must have returned disappointed this time.Tao Jiang opened his mouth to comfort Xi Nan, but when he saw Xi Nan's side face, he lost all thoughts, and felt that Xi Nan needed more self-recovery than him to comfort him.

Xi Nan really doesn't need comfort, even if it is comfort, he can't get what he wants now, so he might as well digest these bad emotions by himself.However, Xi Nan can pretend not to care about some things without mentioning them, but once they are mentioned, they cannot be ignored at all, and they firmly occupy his mind, making him unable to calm down and do other things.

When Xi Nan first arrived in the United States, Xi Yuancheng took good care of him. For a while, Yuan Ran didn't go to work and stayed at home for fear that Xi Nan would still have contact with Xiang Wanguang.That year was actually not easy, sometimes Xi Nan wanted Xiang Wanguang to think too hard, so he could only do a few more math problems, as if Xiang Wanguang was still by his side.

However, every time he encountered a question he couldn't do, Xi Nan subconsciously wanted to turn around and ask, but what he saw was an empty room without the familiar figure.

It was also at this time that Xi Nan realized very clearly that he and Xiang Wanguang had separated.

Xi Nan wanted to contact Xiang Wanguang, but he knew he couldn't.Not only because of the contract between him and Xi Yuancheng, but also because Xi Nan clearly knew that even if he did get in touch with Xiang Wanguang, not to mention whether Xiang Wanguang would still talk to him, it would be difficult for Xi Yuancheng to pass.

Xi Nan couldn't afford to take any more risks until he was strong enough.

So Xi Nan listened to Xi Yuancheng's words, went to high school in the United States, and went to university in the United States, and tried to get rid of Xi Yuancheng's control over him.

In their sophomore year, Xi Nan and Tao Jianghuo started a business with several other boys in the same class, earning their first pot of gold in their lives. Later, they actively participated in various competitions, won a lot of bonuses, and saved a lot of money.

But Xi Nan didn't save the money, because from the sophomore year, Xi Nan ran to Jiangcheng whenever he had the opportunity, greedy for the air of the city where Xiang Wanguang lived, and also tried to find news related to Xiang Wanguang.

Even though it fails every time.

"Going." Xi Nan smiled wryly, "There is still no news."

Since Tao Jiang got in the car, he held back some words and wanted to say something, but he was afraid that saying it would affect Xi Nan's mood, so he hesitated all the time.But seeing Xi Nan's expression at this moment, he suddenly felt that there was no need to worry so much, because Xi Nan was much stronger than he knew.

So Tao Jiang organized the language, and then opened his mouth and said, "After all, it's been so many years, it's normal not to be here."

"He said he will settle in Jiangcheng in the future." Xi Nan insisted.

"That was seven years ago." Tao Jiang corrected, "The last second and this second can be different, not to mention so many years."

Seeing Xi Nan, Tao Jiang still wanted to say something, so she

He added, "Besides, since you both broke up, there's no need for him... to keep the agreement with you."

Xi Nan was dumbfounded, thinking of what Xiang Wanguang said before, he couldn't help but be surprised.Tao Jiang was right, Xiang Wanguang really didn't need to keep his oath with someone who 'breached the contract', and Xiang Wanguang was so good, after Xiang Qin's health recovered, he didn't have to worry about his family, so he should go further afield.

The car fell silent for a moment, and it took a long time to hear Xi Nan's hoarse voice agreeing, "You're right."

Seeing Xi Nan like this, Tao Jiang felt annoyed for a moment, thinking that he had spoken too much, "Well, I..."

"What are you thinking about?" Xi Nan raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, then he stopped laughing, stared at Tao Jiang and said, "I'm not as hypocritical as you think, just such setbacks won't knock me down."

"I didn't spend less time chasing him back then, and this time I made him angry. He should not want to see me." While waiting for the traffic light, Xi Nan looked sideways out of the window, with a faint smile on his lips. Laugh, "Everything is going in a good direction now, I'm not in a hurry."

The earth is round, Xi Nan believes that those who love in their hearts will meet again.

Hearing this, Tao Jiang was taken aback for a moment, then laughed softly, and didn't speak any more.He has known Xi Nan for seven years, has seen Xi Nan on different occasions, and knows how he treats different people, but only when he mentions his ex, Tao Jiang can see Xi Nan who is out of control, and can see Xi Nan's soft side .

Tao Jiang sighed, and hoped that things were going in a good direction as Xi Nan said.

Because Xi Nan just came to work in the company here, he had a lot of things to deal with, so after sending Tao Jiang to the hotel, Xi Nan drove home in a hurry, ready to read the contract that arrived in his hands in the afternoon.

Unlike foreign head offices, branch offices have only experienced a civil strife, and the company's top management has undergone a major shake-up. It can be said that Xi Nan has taken over a mess.After returning to China for two months, he cleaned up the company's management, and spent the rest of his time negotiating contracts to drive the company's development. However, no matter how hard Xi Nan spent on negotiating contracts, the success rate was extremely low.

The contract that the assistant gave him in the afternoon was the only one that had a follow-up in recent weeks.

Xi Nan flipped through the contract, paying special attention to the key points, then nodded, finalized the next day's work with the assistant on the opposite side of the video, and hung up the phone.

Xi Nan was lying on a chair, squinting at the computer that was still on the screen, and seeing the wallpaper on the computer screen clearly, the exhaustion on his face was instantly replaced by a smile, and the smile even spread to the bottom of his eyes, but soon Xi Nan's face The laugh faded again.

Because he has been back to China for two months, but he is still in the United States, and can't find any news related to Xiang Wanguang.

Xi Nan twitched his lips and smiled, recalling his recent work itinerary, thinking that after this busy period, he must go to Jiangcheng again to try his luck.

What Xi Nan didn't expect was that the surprise came so unexpectedly.

Xi Nan looked at Cui Rong, who was in a suit and leather shoes, but didn't realize it for a while, and didn't speak for a long time.It was Cui Rong who came to his senses first, smiled at Xi Nan, and then reached out to shake his hand, "Mr. Xi, my name is Cui Rong, and I am the person in charge of this cooperation."

The words were full of unfamiliarity, without a trace of familiarity, as if the two had never known each other.

Cui Rong's words woke Xi Nan up, he stretched out his hand to shake it back, smiled and said, "Hi, I'm Xi Nan."

Xi Nan didn't say anything else after finishing speaking, and led Cui Rong to the private room, and at the same time called the waiter, handed the menu to Cui Rong, and asked him to order.

Cui Rong didn't refuse. After ordering a few dishes according to his preference, he looked up at Xi Nan and asked him, "What are the special dishes here?"

Xi Nan had just returned to China, and he hadn't eaten out a few times, so he didn't know much about it, but he hesitated for a while, and didn't say he didn't know, but said a few dishes based on his few experiences.

Cui Rong added the dishes Xi Nan had mentioned, and then asked him, "Is there anything Mr. Xi wants to eat? I'll help you order it together?"

As early as seeing Cui Rao, Xi Nan's mind was no longer on work, but drifted to other places, so now hearing Cui Rao's question, Xi Nan shook his head and said, "Enough is enough.

. "

Hearing that Cui Rong didn't speak any more, he sat quietly waiting for the food to be served, allowing the atmosphere to fall silent.However, Xi Nan's heart was not as calm as it looked on the surface. He raised his eyes to look at Cui Rong, holding back a lot of questions in his heart, but he couldn't open his mouth when he saw his former tablemate.

Xi Nan knew in his heart that in the eyes of those friends back then, he was an image of a heartless scumbag, and Xi Nan, bearing this image, didn't think he could get the answer he wanted to know from Cui Rong's mouth.

Just looking at the opposite Cui Rong who was no longer immature, Xi Nan couldn't help the longing in his heart.

But to Xi Nan's surprise, when he was still struggling with how to speak, Cui Rong, who was sitting across from him, took the initiative to break the silence and said, "How have you been these few years?"

Xi Nan was startled, smiled and replied, "Not bad."

"That's good." Cui Rao also laughed, no more greetings, "The dishes are all here, Mr. Xi chooses what you like to eat."

However, Xi Nan who finally opened his mouth, how could he let go of the opportunity at hand, so Xi Nan didn't answer Cui Rong's words, and asked him hesitantly, "What about you? How did you join the company to work?"

When Xi Nan and Cui Rao accidentally talked about their future jobs, Xi Nan joked that he could join his parent’s company and become a white-collar worker, but Cui Rao gave him a punch, saying that he would fight for his dream in the future instead of being a court worker. [-] to [-] working party.

But who knew that Cui Roo a few years later would be engaged in a career that he despised back then.

"Who is still the same?" Cui Rong smiled, then changed the subject, poking open the window paper that Xi Nan didn't dare to break, "Back then you said you would be with Xiang Wanguang for the rest of your life. "

Xi Nan choked for breath and couldn't speak.

Seeing Xi Nan like this, Cui Rong raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, as if he didn't see Xi Nan's painful expression, and continued, "You want to ask me about him?"

Xi Nan didn't speak, but his expression gave away his answer.

Seeing this, Cui Rong sneered, took a sip of the wine from the store, looked at Xi Nan with a funny face, and asked him, "Why?"

The corners of Cui Rong's mouth curled up slightly, and he smiled mockingly, "It's been seven years, what should have passed and what should have passed has become the past, and it is no longer important." Cui Rong paused for a while, and then continued, " As for those reasons back then, no one needs them anymore.”

Cui Rong poured Xi Nan a glass of wine, and added in a cold voice, "This life is good for you all."

Xi Nan picked up the wine that Cui Rong had poured for him, swallowed it down, and his voice became cold, "You are not him, so you are not qualified to answer for him."

Hearing Xi Nan's words, Cui Rong couldn't help laughing.He threw the cup on the table and asked angrily, "Then who is qualified? Are you?"

"I......"

"As I said earlier, this state is good for everyone now," Cui Wei looked at Xi Nan and smiled wryly, "I beg you, Xi Nan, please let him go."

Cui Wei lowered his eyes, not thinking about what happened in these years, and he was not as upset for Xiang Wanguang as he was when Xi Nan just left. He desperately wanted to ask Xiang Wanguang for an explanation, so he sent Xi Nan non-stop WeChat messages every day, even if he didn't get any answer.

Just like what he said, seven years, no matter good or bad, are only worth putting in the past, not worth recalling, or as a talking point.

However, Xi Nan, who wanted to tell Wan Guang the news, couldn't calm down after hearing Cui Rong's words.He stopped drinking, put down his chopsticks, stared at Cui Rong, and asked with a broken jar, "Where's Xiang Wanguang?"

But Xi Nan forgot that they are not the same as they were seven years ago, and Cui Rong is not Xiang Wanguang who always answers his questions, so after he finished asking this question, Xi Nan saw Cui Rong curling up his mouth and smiling After that, there is nothing left.
