Zhou Ze raised his head and looked at the floor number. Only the last half of the floor was left. He put his hands in his pockets and said with a relaxed look, "What are you betting on?"
"Bet on your pile of figurines."
The damn childish desire to win among men.
"Whatever you choose." As Zhou Ze jumped down the last step and stepped on the exit with his feet, you could see his proud look through his sunglasses, "What if I win?"
"It's up to you," Liu Heqi was equally confident.
"Don't regret it."
"How is that possible? Don't regret it."
The two came out one after another, and were startled by the sudden sound of a car horn.
"Damn", after confirming the source of the sound, Liu Heqi was so angry that he walked away, then came back and took another look at who was sitting in the car, "You two made an appointment, right?"
"What?" Wang Yiyi also opened the car door and walked out at this time, planning to hand the steering wheel to Zhou Ze and complain to them, "Can you two slow down a little? You've already climbed down."
"It's climbing, climbing the stairs," Liu Heqi complained endlessly, "Ask him, on the 22nd floor, he insisted on dragging me up the stairs."
Comparing the two people in front of him, Zhou Ze's expression didn't change, his heart didn't beat, as if he had only climbed two floors, "It's safe."
"Okay." Liu Heqi fanned himself and gave Zhou Ze a thumbs up, "I'm leaving, I'm exhausted."
Zhou Ze called him from behind: "Hey, don't forget what you just said."
"I'm willing to admit defeat." Liu Heqi waved his hands without looking back, leaving them with a back view.
"Why is he breathing like this?" Wang Yi looked at Liu Heqi's hunched back with his coat and felt really funny, "Why don't you take the elevator?"
"Lack of exercise", Zhou Ze commented.
"Hahahaha", after getting in the car, Wang Yi took off his coat and put it away, neatly folded it and put it on his lap, "Oh, by the way, what are you betting on?"
"He said you would definitely not wait for me here."
Wang Yiyi pretended to look at the time and agreed: "It's almost the same. I plan to leave soon."
"You should have told me." After Zhou Ze got in the car, he fastened his seat belt and set off in no hurry.
"What?" Wang Yiyi didn't react immediately, thinking that he was talking about visiting Wang's father alone today, "I didn't know what to do when I left the house, so I came here."
"No, that's not what I said. You should have told me about your father at that time."
Wang Yi folded his hands on his legs, looked down, and twirled his thumbs. There was no emotion in his voice, "Oh, you said this, it's okay, it's all over."
After saying that, he forced his smile and raised his head to smile at Zhou Ze.
Zhou Ze put one hand on the steering wheel and turned to Wang Yiyi. The spacious space in the front row felt inexplicably oppressive. He looked at Wang Yiyi with firm eyes, "You were going through those things at that time.
I'm sorry I wasn't with you when you were here."
This Liu Heqi sold all her secrets, and she didn't know how much she had to say. Unexpectedly, she turned around and was sold out again.
Faced with the other party's frankness, Wang Yiyi didn't know how to respond, so he simply said, "It was a long time ago. You really don't need to feel this way. Even if you were here at that time, you couldn't change anything.
"
"You should have told me, we can face it together, at least"
Wang Yi interrupted him, "We had already broken up by then, right?"
Zhou Ze paused for a moment, then held back a sentence for a long time, "Even if this is the case, at least we are still friends, right?"
What can we face together? Wang Yiyi thought in her heart. She didn't think she could or would not allow herself to ask a "friend" to accompany her to face a "war" with no end in sight.
At that time, my father was lying in the intensive care unit. As for whether he could survive those days or when he would be released, the doctors did not dare to guarantee. Even if he was released, he would need constant care and there would be no end in sight.
Whenever it was late at night, she was lying on the narrow bed in the duty room, tossing and turning, and when she couldn't stand it any longer, she turned on her phone, switched back and forth between Professor Yi and Zhou Ze's calls, and immediately closed her phone again.
She can decide her own life without regrets, but how dare she influence other people's lives at will.
But God seemed to have played a big joke on her. Just after she decided to quit the entertainment industry after she pushed for the big director's drama, it was like a miracle happened. Wang Fu's condition improved at the speed of light. He
After leaving the intensive care unit and transferring to the general ward, he regained consciousness within a few days, and all indicators slowly returned to normal values.
Everyone is happy about Dean Wang's amazing recovery speed, and Wang Yiyi is also happy, but at the same time she also knows that in just over a month, she has lost many important things in her life, which she will never get back.
However, she does not regret the decision she made at that time. If losing some external things can help her father recover, she is willing to do so.
Bringing up old things now has no other meaning except making people feel guilty for what has happened. Besides, she is already extremely satisfied with the life she has now, so how can she be willing to break this tranquility.
After a long confrontation, Wang Yiyi still shook his head, unwilling to say anything more, and uttered a few words lightly, "Let's go, your parents should be waiting impatiently."
The light in Zhou Ze's eyes dimmed a little. He glanced at her, opened his mouth, but said nothing and stepped on the accelerator.
Along the way, Zhou Ze said nothing and looked obviously in a bad mood.
From Zhou Ze's perspective, he understands Wang Yiyi's character and the reasons why she does what she does, but he cannot truly empathize with Wang Yiyi. This is due to their differences in their views on relationships and marriage.
Zhou Ze believes that a healthy and stable relationship requires both people to contribute and have a sense of presence that permeates the other person's life, and he doesn't care whether he pays more or less. He originally thought he was doing good for the other person.
Concealing something is actually a sign of distrust and disapproval of a relationship.
To put it bluntly, Wang Yiyi didn't believe him. The fact that he didn't have any demands on him meant that he didn't place any hope on him.
Until the car stopped steadily in front of Zhou's house, the two of them sat quietly in the car, silent.
As soon as Wang Yi broke the deadlock, she put on a tone that she thought was as relaxed as possible, "My dad said he will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow and wants us to go back for dinner. Do you have time?"
Zhou Ze's tone was stiff and awkward, making it even more difficult to guess what he meant: "What should I do if it's not?"
Wang Yi stuck out his tongue, narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly had an idea, "Then I won't go. Anyway, I won't go alone."
The sunset filtered in slightly from the window, casting it on half of Wang Yi's cheeks, and the small and delicate nose was just caught by the last touch of the afterglow.
Just as Zhou Ze understands Wang Yiyi, Wang Yiyi also understands Zhou Ze. She actually knows how to please him very well.
