It was nearly a four-hour drive from Yishui County back to Huxia City. Rao returned after lunch at noon. It was past five o'clock when we got off the expressway. Master Du very thoughtfully took Lu Beicen home along the way.
The car stopped at the intersection of Binhu Huacheng. Lu Beicen got off the car at the intersection. Xue Feng, who was sitting in the front row, inadvertently looked out the window, as if he saw a familiar person, and then looked at the person in the rearview mirror.
Lu Beicen, who was dragging his suitcase to the entrance of the community, was silent for a moment. He couldn't hold it in any longer and asked, "I just saw Mr. Li. Do you think he is waiting for Xiaolu?"
Wen Mengran was stunned for a moment, then turned around and looked behind. He could no longer clearly see the scene behind him through the car and the people. After thinking about it, Wen Mengran still shook his head and said, "You may have seen it wrong. I
Why didn’t you see it?”
"You are myopic and I am not myopic. I really saw it. Why should I make such a joke?" Xue Feng said dissatisfied.
But Master Du laughed cheerfully: "What's the matter? My fair lady, a gentleman is so jealous that it's normal to wait for her."
"Ouch, Lao Du is not simple, he can also recite poems." Xue Feng laughed out loud.
"Even Mr. Li, he doesn't necessarily come here to wait for Xiaolu, right? There are many people from our station living in this community. Isn't it interesting that Mr. Li comes to visit some house?" Wen Mengran intuitively felt something was wrong.
I wanted to take out my cell phone and call Lu Beicen, but after hesitating for a long time, I still didn't make the call.
Seeing Li Jiatao standing at the gate of the community, Lu Beicen felt really bad. After the phone call that day, Li Jiatao seemed to have disappeared. Lu Beicen also felt that his father's call on the phone had had an effect, thinking that this incident
It's over.
"You're back from a business trip? You moved without telling me." Li Jitao looked at the suitcase in Lu Beicen's hand and spoke in a smooth broadcasting style.
Lu Beicen really didn't know what to say, and she didn't know why Li Jitao suddenly appeared here, but she could feel that it was probably just a coincidence.
"Hello, Mr. Li!" Lu Beicen could only put a professional smile on his face.
"Which building do you live in? Won't you invite me to come in and sit down?" Li Jitao ignored Lu Beicen's embarrassment.
Lu Beicen took a deep breath and said bluntly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Li, it may not be convenient."
"Girl, the more you reject me thousands of miles away like this, the more problematic it becomes? So, why is it necessary? After such a long time, you should have calmed down. Can't we talk calmly?" Li Jitao's
There is a kind of certainty in the smile that holds the pearls of wisdom in one's chest.
Lu Beicen really hated how embarrassed she was at this moment, and even regretted that she had just refused Lu Beihao on the phone to come out to pick her up, but he heard his little brother's cheerful voice like he was saving his life: "Sister, why are you so lazy? Hey, sister, you
Did you meet someone you know?"
Lu Beihao saw a hint of relief in Lu Beicen's eyes when he turned to look at him. He looked at Li Jitao without leaving any trace. He kept walking, kept the smile on his face, and said hello to Li Jitao very generously.
Just as Li Jiantao was about to speak, Lu Beicen cut the knot quickly: "Ah Hao, this is the leader of our unit, Mr. Li. Let's go first. My parents are waiting for me to eat. Goodbye." Lu Beicen said goodbye to Li Jiantao.
He put the suitcase into his brother's hand and walked into the community.
Jiang Zhongze, who was following behind, also had a panoramic view of everything in front of him. Seeing Lu Beicen almost running away in a panic, he unconsciously squinted his eyes. It seemed that there should be some unclear relationship between this man and Lu Beicen.
.
Li Jitao watched helplessly as Lu Beicen walked away in a hurry. His eyes shifted from her back to Jiang Zhongze. As soon as their eyes met, they both nodded gracefully and then looked away.
Lu Beicen obviously also saw Jiang Zhongze standing behind him, and felt even more embarrassed. He could only nod and say hello to Jiang Zhongze, thinking that as long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.
"It seems a lot darker after Xiaobei's business trip. Do you want to bask in the sun every day?" Jiang Zhongze looked away from Li Jitao and greeted with a smile.
"Mr. Li, I'm sorry, I came out late and kept you waiting. Come on, come on, please come inside..." At this time, Lu Beicen heard such a warm greeting behind his head and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Ha, this
Why is the world so small?
When he finally arrived in front of his building, Lu Beicen finally remembered something and asked Lu Beihao, "Why did you come here suddenly? I remember I told you that I was on a business trip this weekend."
Lu Beihao shrugged his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Brother Ze and I came to see the house. There is a villa in this community. It turned out to be reserved by one of the shareholders of the developer. It has been renovated and has not been lived in for a year. There is a lack of turnover.
The funds have been transferred, and you can move in with your bags. Brother Ze likes it very much. The negotiation has been roughly completed and he is ready to buy it..."
Rich people are really willful. Lu Beicen really didn't have the energy to speak at the moment. He just wanted to go home, take a shower and be alone for a while: "Ah Hao, then you and Mr. Jiang should go to dinner first. I'm a little tired.
I want to go home and wash up."
Lu Beihao had some understanding of the situation at the gate of the community just now. The man might be the person his sister had mentioned before. Looking at his sister's tired face, she nodded calmly and said: "Okay, I and I
Brother Ze is going to eat first. What do you want to eat? I’ll pack a bag for you.”
Lu Beicen wanted to say that he had no appetite, but it seemed more difficult to reassure Ah Hao. He could only say casually, then said hello to Jiang Zhongze, entered the elevator and went upstairs.
When he opened the door and smelled the familiar smell of home, Lu Beicen instantly felt relaxed. He closed the door and sat on the shoe-changing bench in the entrance hall for a long time.
The room was getting darker and darker, and the lights outside were getting brighter and brighter. Feeling the alternation of day and night, exhaustion spread from the brain to all parts of the body, and Lu Beicen didn't want to move at all.
The ringtone of the mobile phone rang in the empty room. Lu Beicen took out the mobile phone from his backpack on the ground, and it turned out to be Wen Mengran calling.
"Xiaobei, are you home yet?"
"Well, I'm home. My brother is here."
"Oh, that's good. I just forgot to tell you that we will take the day off tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I just handed in the order for the day off. I'm very tired these days. You have a good rest."
"That's it, okay, I'll take a break tomorrow and invite Sister Li and Teacher Du to have dinner together the day after tomorrow?"
"Wow, you really mean what you say? If you feel tired, we can get together outside. It's very tiring to cook by yourself."
"It's okay, that's it. I'm going to take a shower."
Lu Beicen said goodbye and hung up the phone, and stood up with a sigh of relief. Suddenly he felt that this job was really tiring. I wonder if it will become better as time goes by and I get used to it, at least like Wen Mengran.
Be calm and keep everything in order.
As for Li Jiantao, Lu Beicen already had an instinctive resistance. Maybe what he said was right, but so what? She firmly believed that time is the best medicine. As long as she is determined, time will definitely help her smooth away the worries in her heart.
Traces, like this gurgling hot water, can wash away all fatigue and sweat...
