This Damned Sweetness

When the two were talking in the car, in the restaurant, Jiang Fang replaced Xu Qiao's seat, asked the waiter to clean up the food scraps, took a pair of new dishes, and pitifully rinsed the remaining half of the plate on the table. beef.

The Cheng family has done the aftermath very efficiently, and the restaurant has returned to order.

Jiang Fang was supposed to leave, but because of Cheng Lang's confession, "Take care of her friends", he didn't make it.

Although he felt that the two women opposite seemed very self-reliant and self-reliant, they weren't "babbled scared" little girls at all, and they didn't need his care at all.

Then he will take care of his hungry stomach.

Zhu Li and Yujin have already eaten seven or eight, and of course they will not refuse Jiang Fang’s humble request to "give me some leftovers." However, seeing the appearance of the opposite person resembling a starved ghost reborn, they are still stunned. .

"You haven't eaten?" Zhu Li and Jiang Fang had shaken the dice relationship together at the bar last year. They were a little familiar and took the initiative to speak up with him.

"Do you think Lang always looks like someone who can eat?" Jiang Fang replied as he cooked the meat, "Pity me if I can't return home for the New Year, I will accompany the gentleman."

"Oh," Zhu Li nodded, "I can't see that your men are so tired."

Jiang Fang sighed and shook his head: "I was going back to China yesterday. I was dragged by President Lang to drink. I thought I couldn't catch the plane. I told my family. Good fellow, my dad gave a death order when I heard that I was with President Lang. , Saying that if I don’t serve the boss well and dare to go home for the New Year, I’ll break my leg."

"..." Then your father is really far-sighted and understands human investment.

Jiang Fang looked at the two opposing people choked, took a few mouthfuls, remembered something, and asked Zhu Li, "Then you also mean home?"

Zhu Li wanted to say that she was not the same as his plastic brotherhood. When the words came to his lips, he was too lazy to say hypocritical words, shrugged and said: "Accompany the koi, save character, and ask for money for the coming year."

Jiang Fang put down his chopsticks, with an expression of "Happy meeting, happy meeting", and raised his wine glass: "The same is the end of the world."

Zhu Li's mouth twitched, and he picked up the wine glass and touched him casually.

Jiang put a glass of wine down, and continued to wind up.

Yu Jin looked at the car downstairs that hadn't moved for a long time, and asked Zhu Li in a low voice, "It looks like it will reconcile?"

The first time after Cheng Lang and Xu Qiao left, the three met to analyze and discuss the situation. Regarding the reason for the breakup of the two, they guessed a consensus version-it is estimated that Xu Qiao misunderstood Cheng Lang and the one just now. What does "woman" have to do, and because the other party is really a man, Cheng Lang can hardly explain it.

It's all right now, the truth is out, in the view of the three, the problem should be solved.

Zhu Li hasn't answered yet, Jiang Fang first sighed: "If you don't reconcile, I won't be able to go back to this house!"

Zhu Li glanced at him: "Who told you to bully our Koi sister, we deserve it."

"Oh no, I'll be fair..."

Jiang Fang sold Cheng Lang’s state in the past two days to a clean one, and said: "He was going home to eat New Year’s Eve dinner tonight, so he could not worry about Xu Qiao. If someone got home, he refused, saying that he didn’t want to use any of his money and aura to force her. I said you go find her, and then we came here. Guess what, he asked you The number of the table, let the waiter arrange a seat for him to see you, but not to be seen by you."

Jiang Fang was convinced: "Is this sick? I asked him why? He said that he wanted to see Xu Qiao, but he didn't want her to be in a bad mood because of her appearance and lack the appetite to eat."

Zhu Li and Yu Jin were also surprised.

Isn't this the legendary licking dog? In the rest of my life, I actually saw alive, and there is still a president who has a "throne" to inherit.

Jiang Fang concluded his statement: "In all fairness, I have never seen Mr. Lang look like this. A man who doesn't need all his face and dignity. That's a real risk. Don't be too harsh."

Zhu Li gave a "tsk", not sympathetic to Cheng Lang, but felt that both parties are actually affectionate. It is very uncomfortable to do so, and nodded and said: "Then I hope that Mr. Lang can satisfy our Koi sister at this moment."

"I'm afraid that President Lang is too humble to act now," Jiang Fang put aside his chopsticks, "Hey, why don't we give them a fire assist?"

Zhu Li raised an eyebrow: "I don't do such a naive thing."

"Why is this childish? Lovers finally get married, so **** beautiful?"

Jiang Fang Barabara persuaded Zhu Li to be annoyed, and replied perfunctorily to see what's going on with them.

So the three of them stared at the Bentley downstairs outside the window, hoping that the car could leave directly - that proved Cheng Lang had coaxed Xu Qiao well.

However, the hopeful scene did not appear: Ten minutes later, Cheng Lang got out of the car, opened the door for Xu Qiao, and sent her back to the restaurant.

Zhu Li helped his forehead. Jiang put a table and chopsticks.

The two of them all looked like "I have to spend this Spring Festival holiday, right?"

Three seconds later, Jiang Fang pressed the table board and leaned to the opposite side: "Two ladies, can you do me a favor?"

——

Xu Qiao was sent into the restaurant's main entrance by Cheng Lang.

The waiter stretched out his hand and was about to lead the two of them, but Cheng Lang compared Xu Qiao with a gesture: "I won't go up, don't disturb you for the New Year's Eve dinner."

Xu Qiao looked at him and said "Oh".

He said that he would give her time to think about it, and if she really changed her former aggressive style, she was a little uncomfortable.

She touched her nose and walked up the stairs. After a few steps, she looked back and saw that Cheng Lang was still where she was. She frowned at her: "Be careful of the steps."

She held the handrail and said silently, "What, tonight at your house..."

"Don't worry," Cheng Lang laughed, "I explained it well."

Xu Qiao nodded, as if she wanted to say something, after thinking about it, she closed her mouth and turned back upstairs.

But only turmeric was left on the table.

Jiang Fang's whereabouts were not in Xu Qiao's concern. She asked, "Where is Zhu Li?"

Yu Jin cleared his throat: "She said it was too unreasonable to go to bed early on New Year's Eve. She went to contact the hotel to open a party room, hold the second party later, and be ready to call us over later."

Xu Qiao was still immersed in the stories that Cheng Lang had just told, and did not notice that Yujin's expression was slightly unnatural, nodded and called for a piece of after-dinner fruit, Liushenwuzhu, and ate a few bites without eating.

After dinner, Xu Qiao urged Zhu Li to ask for the address. Zhu Li said that it was a bit troublesome to hold a party temporarily, and he was still communicating with the hotel to ask her and Yu Jin to go back to the hotel and wait for news.

In fact, because of the dinner episode, Xu Qiao had no fun tonight, but considering that Zhu Li had been on the plane for more than ten hours, it would be too uninteresting to let her stay with her and do nothing, so she agreed.

After waiting until ten o'clock in the evening, Zhu Li finally contacted Xu Qiao and sent a message saying that everything was ready.

Xu Qiao took a brief look at herself, and when she was about to go out, she received a call from Cheng Lang.

She was stunned, holding the gesture of pulling the door with her hand, and connected the phone.

Cheng Lang asked endlessly, "Are you going to Weiersting?"

"How do you know?" Xu Qiao opened the phone to confirm the positioning given by Zhu Li.

Cheng Lang sighed with a headache: "Don't go, rest early."

"Ok?"

"Jiang Fang also suddenly asked me to go there."

"..."

It took Xu Qiao a second to figure out this **** routine with her toes-Zhu Li and Jiang Fang planned to arrange her and Cheng Lang to the hotel separately, and then both retired.

She said why Zhu Li had to prepare for a small party for several hours. This was to set up a love suite for her and Cheng Lang?

She put her hand on the doorknob down, and said to Yu Jin: "Help me and Zhu Li, I'm not going." Then she turned back to the bedroom with her mobile phone.

Because she didn't hang up, Cheng Lang certainly kept the phone open.

After the bedroom door was closed, there was only a small electric noise in the earpiece. After a moment of silence-

"you……"

"you……"

Cheng Lang laughed: "You speak first."

Xu Qiao brewed for a while and asked, "Why did you remind me specifically?"

Following Cheng Lang's previous style, he could pretend that he hadn't seen Jiang Fang's tricks and went to the appointment by mistake.

Anyway, the people who set up the game were Zhu Li and Jiang Fang. When Xu Qiao found out that he had been deceived, Cheng Lang could not be blamed.

"Because I said that I will only tell you the truth from now on." Cheng Lang smiled.

Xu Qiao didn't know what it was like, it seemed a bit sour.

She sat down on the bed, unable to respond for a long while.

Cheng Lang rescued again and changed the subject: "Wait for zero?"

"Don't wait." Xu Qiao's mood is really bad, "I want to sleep."

"Then Happy New Year in advance." Cheng Lang was still smiling.

"Oh." Xu Qiao replied dullly, and when Cheng Lang offered to "hang up", she finally replied, "Happy New Year."

——

Unfortunately, the first night of this new year is destined to be unhappy.

Xu Qiao had a messy dream all night. There was no herself in the dream. From beginning to end, it was Cheng Lang and the transvestite patient, as well as the pale and helpless picture of him when he became ill, so that he woke up early the next morning. After coming, she always felt that the matter was not over yet.

It's not over in her heart.

After careful consideration, she went to Cheng Lang's alma mater again on the first day of the first lunar month.

Local schools in London are naturally not affected by Chinese festivals, and classes continue as usual.

Xu Qiao walked around the school with the idea of ​​trying his luck, and inquired about the transvestite patient with passers-by, and finally stepped on the iron shoes and found nowhere. Outside the school cafe window, he saw him and a Chinese man face to face. Drinking coffee.

The two seemed to have a good chat. The eyes of the Chinese male who looked at the other side clearly produced an emotional expression.

This Chinese man is completely a passerby who has nothing to do with her, but Xu Qiao's heart has a nameless fire.

She didn't know if it was an empathy.

Through this man, she seemed to have witnessed Cheng Lang's past.

Xu Qiao stood outside the coffee shop and watched them for a long time, until the Chinese man got up and went to the bathroom. She pushed the door and walked in. She asked the coffee shop clerk for a piece of sticky paper, and wrote a reminder in Chinese on it. Give it to the man in the bathroom, and then walk to the transvestite patient: "Sir, may I sit opposite you?"

The other party was obviously taken aback when he saw her, and glanced around his eyes subconsciously. Seeing the phrase "Mr." did not seem to attract people's attention, he recovered calmly, smiling nonchalantly and greeted her: "Hello, what's wrong with me?"

Xu Qiao sat down opposite him: "Sir, I don’t know your name, and I don’t care what kind of mentality you are reporting. I have been looking for the target man for so many years, but I must remind you-you are miserable. Encounters make people sympathize, but it is not a reason for you to harm others or retaliate against society. You are committing a crime."

He smiled: "Telling fun as a crime, miss, you are a little exaggerated. Of course, I did have a history with Mr. Cheng, so I can understand how you mind me."

Xu Qiao opened her eyes and nodded amusingly.

She is a little too kind to a patient.

She stood up, pressed her hand gently on the edge of the table, and leaned over to look at him slightly: "It's a pity that I don't need this kind of instigation method in the sixth grade of elementary school. Sir, please correct your position. Don't be useless. The delusion-I am a normal person, how can I mind a mentally ill person?"

The other's face paled.

"Also, you may have some misunderstandings about my people," Xu Qiao brushed her sleeves and said, looking at her newly made nails before coming to London. "I'm not the kind of silly white sweet who has nothing to do. My hands are darker and ruthless than our Mr. Cheng."

She smiled slightly and looked at the stunned person opposite: "If you continue to disturb our lives, the law cannot rule you, I will rule you."
