Chapter 130 You treat me well, but I ruin it by mistake (8)
Although he had made plans to make this blind date a success, Chao Ci did not show any special performance.
What Zhao Luojing wants to find is a stable and down-to-earth man. Chao Ci's personality in this world is the most suitable, and there is no need to show any other performance.
Sure enough, after finishing the meal, Chao Ci looked nervous and a little embarrassed, but Zhao Luojing didn't look impatient at all, and was vaguely happy.
After eating, they exchanged contact information with each other. Judging from Zhao Luojing's attitude, it was obvious that they had plans to further understand and develop.
Although Chao Ci has no plans to fall in love for the time being, he is not a person who rejects others easily. Seeing the woman's enthusiastic attitude, he will naturally not show any other expression.
…………
Just like her relationship with He Lu, Zhao Luojing also started by communicating on WeChat.
However, Chao Ci suffered a loss once, and he was no longer like before. When someone chatted with him on WeChat for a few more days, he foolishly fell into it. After what happened with He Lu, Chao Ci actually had a taste for beautiful and young people.
The girl has no extravagant hopes, not to mention that he doesn't want to fall in love now, even if he really wants to fall in love, he just wants to find an ordinary woman, and the two of them can live a down-to-earth life together.
But because of Chao Ci's good-natured character, he wouldn't ignore or deal with the other party when they came to him. Although he learned a lot from the experience, human beings tend to have some control over their appearance. Although he doesn't expect to fall in love with Zhao Luojing
, but there is still a general good impression. It is not like avoiding people like snakes and scorpions.
After chatting for a few days, Zhao Luojing also told Chao Ci more or less about her situation.
She said she dropped out of school last year because of her family's financial situation. She didn't say the specific reason.
With only a high school diploma, it is obviously difficult for her to find a job with good conditions in City S. Now she works part-time in a milk tea shop. She majored in French in college and occasionally receives translation orders online to earn some extra money.
We chatted for about a week or two, and it was another weekend. Zhao Luojing said that it was rare for her to take a break and wanted to ask Chao Ci to go hiking together.
Chao Ci wanted to refuse, and tactfully stated on WeChat that she could ask other friends to accompany her. But Zhao Luojing also said that she had only been in S city for more than two years, and her former friends were classmates, and she had no contact at all after dropping out of school.
Now I can barely be considered friends with my colleagues, but the milk tea shop takes turns and everyone has four days off per month. She has today off, while other colleagues are working.
After saying this, Chao Ci couldn't refuse, so he went hiking with her.
Chao Ci rarely climbs mountains, although he prefers them to other recreational activities. But he is busy with work, especially when he was in love with He Lu for more than a year, so he was so busy that he even had to squeeze in time for meals.
Come out, let alone climb a mountain.
It was a rare occasion to go out and climb a mountain. Looking at the clouds and mist below and the numerous peaks, the depression that Chao Ci had accumulated in his chest these past few days seemed to have inexplicably dissipated a lot.
Chao Ci looked at Zhao Jing, who was wearing a sunhat next to her and her forehead and neck were still stained with sweat like drops of water. He asked her with a smile: "It's so rare to have a rest, why do you still want to go out to climb the mountain? Aren't you tired?"
"It's okay to be tired." Zhao Luojing wiped the sweat from her forehead, "Health is the most important thing."
She said and took out a cup of brown sugar and wolfberry from the backpack behind her: "Want something to drink?"
…………
After getting along, Chao Ci discovered that the girl Zhao Luojing was indeed different from what he imagined.
She is far less impetuous than she is at this age. Instead, she seems to have entered middle age or even old age ahead of schedule. She is so outstanding that she can be famous even if she becomes an Internet celebrity, but she has never thought about using her appearance to gain anything. Nor.
Like most of her peers, she is used to staying up late and not eating too much, just for a moment of pleasure. Instead, she pays great attention to health. She even brings a wolfberry thermos cup with her when climbing, which really surprised Chao Ci.
She never stayed up late, and no matter how tired she was, she would go to bed at 11 o'clock. After she matured, she would often urge Chao Ci to go to bed early.
In this way, the two gradually became familiar with each other. Chao Ci also somewhat let go of his previous resistance.
The two were originally on a blind date. After getting along for several months, their relationship became more and more familiar. Even if Chao Ci didn't actually mean that, it still became a matter of course that Zhao Luojing confessed to him more than three months later.
Chao Ci had always expected this confession, but when it actually came, he was still very surprised.
He admits that he has nothing outstanding in his speech and has an honest personality, but honesty is often associated with being a loser. He is not outstanding in terms of appearance and family background. It was enough to surprise him when He Lu agreed to be with him, let alone
This time it was Zhao Luojing who confessed first.
He Lu proved that there is no free pie in the world. This time, Chao Ci obviously did not dare to believe it easily.
"Xiao Jing, I don't have much money. I'm almost thirty, and I can say that I have accomplished nothing. You are so beautiful, why don't you want someone without you?"
Chao Ci wanted to refuse.
"Brother Chao Ci, are you afraid that I will lie to you?" Zhao Luojing touched Chao Ci's biggest concern with one word. She looked up at Chao Ci and said softly but firmly, "I really like Brother Chao Ci.
If Brother Chao Ci doesn’t believe it, we can go get the certificate tomorrow.”
She doesn't care about betrothal gifts or other money. She knows that her parents have been planning to sell her for a good price, but she will pay back what she owes her parents, and she will never be a drag on Chao Ci. Anyway, S city is far away from her.
My hometown is thousands of miles away, so I can't do anything to her.
When she said this, Chao Ci was stunned.
Although most blind dates are like this, if you get along for a few months and you feel it's okay, you can get the certificate immediately. However, Chao Ci is conservative after all, and still thinks that two people should have a foundation of feelings for each other, and it is better to get along with each other for a relatively long time before getting married.
"It's not that I don't believe you..."
…
Although he gave up his terrible plan to get the certificate tomorrow, Chao Ci could not reject Zhao Luojing's confession.
Their relationship is obviously more ambiguous than before.
Just when Chao Ci was hesitant and embarrassed, his parents also called him.
"Xiao Ci, I heard from Aunt Chen that Xiao Jing likes you very much. Mom saw Xiao Jing's photo and learned about her situation. She is a good girl. You are old enough now, it's time to get married..."
His parents talked to him for a long time. After hanging up the phone, Chao Ci walked to the window of his new home and was a little dazed looking at the bustling city S below.
It's time for him to get married.
You can't really be a loner for the rest of your life just because of He Lu.
Xiao Jingya...there's nothing wrong with it.
…………
Let’s talk about He Lu.
Although the conversation ended on bad terms and Chao Ci didn't ask for his money, He Lu felt guilty and apologetic, but also breathed a sigh of relief.
In any case, this difficult matter has been solved.
As before, he had a lot of fun with the rich kids, feeling that he had not been so free and happy for a long time.
After getting together with Chao Ci, although he still went to the gatherings in the circle often, he only went there once. For the rest... he was inexplicably afraid to do anything. Although Chao Ci had no control over him, he still felt in his heart
There is an inexplicable layer of shackles.
During that time, Chao Ci was looking for him everywhere, and he didn't even dare to go.
Now that he was separated from Chao Ci, the shackles seemed to have disappeared. He Lu really almost went crazy all of a sudden, and he just felt that it was rare to have fun.
But after playing like crazy for two months, I felt that all this so-called fun was just back and forth.
Boring and boring.
There seemed to be another layer of vague shadow buried in my heart. It had weight and was getting heavier day by day, pulling my heart down to a place where Helu could not see.
It seemed light and airy, but instead it gnawed at the flesh and blood on his heart, biting out holes one after another, blowing in the cold wind.
They were interns in their senior year, and He Lu was actually an intern at an Internet company controlled by his family. What was a painful internship life for ordinary interns, was extremely easy for He Lu.
He also moved to an 800-square-meter villa outside the school, near the city center.
The villa is very big, and those people often come to his house to hold parties.
Today is also his birthday. In fact, he doesn't really think about it, but he has always been the center of attention in their circle. His friends have been cheering for his birthday early in the morning.
This time he didn't want to go through any trouble, so he simply did it in this villa.
The villa was extremely lively, but He Lu sat on the sofa and spoke little.
"Young Master He, you are the birthday boy today, why don't you say anything?" someone beside him joked.
He Lu didn't react at all, he just picked up the wine on the table and drank it without saying a word.
"Young Master He, why do you have girl bags at home?" Suddenly the girl walked up to He Lu, picked up three or four bags in her hand, and said with a smile.
"These bags are all low-priced goods that cost tens of thousands of yuan. I don't know who gave them to you. However, although this Chanel bag only costs tens of thousands of yuan, it has been out of print recently. I quite like this style.
Yes, I was thinking of asking someone to buy it abroad..." She sat diagonally opposite He Lu and kept talking.
However, before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by He Lu.
He Lu's expression at this moment was extremely horrifying. There was no smile in his usually charming peach blossom eyes, and he was staring straight at her, with a frightening storm brewing and suppressing in his eyes.
"Where did you get this bag?" His voice was very soft, but it carried a chill that sent chills down the spine.
"It's... the storage room next to it." The girl murmured, "I thought it was the bathroom, but I didn't expect it to be a storage room. There are some sundries in there, and there are these bags. Aren't I curious...
…”
He Lu didn't lose the bags that Chao Ci gave him, but he didn't care about them. He just left them at home. The nanny probably didn't think they were important, so he packed them up in the storage room.
"Give them to me." He Lu said.
The girl was so frightened by He Lu's terrifying appearance that she froze and didn't move for a moment.
Lin Xuyi, who was flirting with a beautiful woman by the swimming pool, noticed the commotion and quickly left the beautiful woman behind and rushed towards He Lu.
"What's wrong?" He hurriedly walked to He Lu's side, "Why are you so angry?"
With Lin Xuyi as a buffer, the girl finally came to her senses. She timidly handed the bag to He Lu, but He Lu took them all away.
He Lu ignored Lin Xuyi, carefully placed the bag beside him, and continued to focus on the girl: "Didn't anyone tell you that you can't mess with other people's things?!"
