"Go and make me another cup of coffee." Situ Leiyan slowly uttered a sentence, then turned his narrow eyes across her nervous little face, staring at her and looking away. Xiao Xixi then relaxed.
I breathed a sigh of relief, but I still had some lingering fear.
"Then you agree?" She hurriedly asked, it would be better to be sure. This man is uncertain. "If you don't speak, I will treat you as agreeing." Xiao Xixi added in an uncertain and tentative tone, while
Quietly observe his reaction.
Seeing that Situ Leiyan didn't answer, it was regarded as acquiescence. She became filled with joy, suddenly thought that he wanted coffee, and walked out the door happily.
Situ Leiyan stood in front of the window, with his back to Xiao Xixi, looking down at everything downstairs.
He once thought that he could look down on the whole world, and everyone was surrendering before his eyes. No matter what woman he was, there was no need for so-called "conquest". There were so many people who were trying to conquer the world, and he was obsessed with women who couldn't even name them.
We have no feelings at all, but now we care about such a little girl.
He seemed to still have the delicate look of her with her pink lips pressed tightly in front of his eyes. He tried his best to control his impulse to kiss her, so he stood up suddenly and ignored this thought.
There was no attachment in her eyes. He could see it clearly. There was only the fear and worry of having to stay by his side. Did she... dislike staying by his side so much?
Hearing the rustling sound behind him, Xiao Xixi must have gone out of the house to prepare another coffee for him, completely ignoring his feeling that he couldn't be happy. Situ Leiyan crossed his hands together, and his black shirt wrapped his secretly showing muscles.
Curves, faint ups and downs of breathing, exuding a strange atmosphere.
The day passed in such a miserable way. Situ Leiyan left Xiao Xixi who didn't say a word, but she looked very busy. It seemed that nothing could stop her from feeling happy about criticizing fakes.
Unable to endure this depression, Situ Leiyan gasped several times and couldn't sit down anymore. He stood up, picked up the coat hanging on the back of the chair, and left without looking back.
Xiao Xixi finished typing the last word in today's copy, sat on the chair, took a long breath, stretched her body, and moved her neck.
Unexpectedly, it was already dark outside the window.
Xiao Xixi was walking along the street with her bag. The scorching heat had dissipated, and the cool breeze was blowing in the early autumn after nightfall. She was wearing three-quarter-length clothes, but her wrists still felt a little chilly, so she couldn't help but quicken her pace.
Because the location of Situ Yatai Company is excellent, and the nearby stores are all well-known chain stores, Xiao Xixi quickly walked to Lafite Cake Shop. The main theme of this cake shop is "discovering pure deliciousness", and it has been in a commotion recently due to the speculation about raw material additives.
, only Lafite Cake Shop has been spared in the public opinion because the ingredients used are 100% natural.
Standing at the door, the fragrance of eggs and milk was already lingering in the air. Xiao Xixi was so sweet that she was drunk just by smelling the air. She couldn't wait to push the door in and saw the dazzling array of cakes. Her soft heart was completely filled with joy.
melted.
Her eyes were full of light. She slightly raised her mouth and looked at each model carefully. She was so dazzled that she couldn't decide which one to choose. She took out her mobile phone and found a number to dial. But then,
As if she was electrocuted, she suddenly hung up within a few tenths of a second before the call was connected.
The word "Yan Rui" on the screen was extremely dazzling, and disappeared as the screen dimmed... Xiao Xixi's heart skipped a beat, why did she call him like a conditional? Brother Rui. She sighed silently.
The sadness from the bottom of her heart spread irresistibly throughout Xiao Xixi's body. Standing in front of the crystal cake cabinet, her eyes were full of mist, but her thoughts began to overturn.
There was no contact for a long time, and it felt like the most intimate connection with her was suddenly cut off. Xiao Xixi originally planned to take it calmly and downplay everything before. However, she didn't expect that the little pain that came out at the earliest moment would still occur today.
At dusk, take advantage of the darkness to creep in.
Except for the few years when Brother Rui went abroad, he attended every birthday without exception. Thinking about it now, it was a luxury. She hesitated, called him, or...? Unexpectedly, she didn't consider it at all in previous years.
The problem now made her confused.
"Miss, welcome! Which cake would you like to order?" The clerk wearing a European-style waiter's jacket greeted her warmly. Seeing her looking at the counter in a daze, he thought she was suffering from another case of obsessive-compulsive choice.
"Choose..." Xiao Xixi responded mechanically, "Wait a moment..." Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by another voice that shook her heartstrings.
"Choose this one." A big hand stretched out and pointed at the lemon mousse cake behind the glass cover, "30 inches. Next Wednesday." The tone was calm, with a slight sense of loneliness.
Xiao Xixi didn't dare to look suddenly, she felt like she was suffering from aphasia.
There is no doubt that this voice is so familiar to her, Yan Rui. But she doesn't know why he suddenly appeared here. He appeared next to her again without any preparation.
Xiao Xixi was at a loss, and only the clerk's enthusiastic response rang in her ears: "Sir, are you talking about this 'Lemon Hong Kong Bay'? Door-to-door delivery?"
Looking at Yan Rui's calm face and nodding, the clerk quickly recorded and announced: "'Lemon Hong Kong Bay', mousse cake, 30 inches. The soft custard fragrance is mixed with trace amounts of cocoa, an art full of memories.
Beautiful atmosphere. What time is next Wednesday...?"
The clerk asked Yan Rui, but followed Yan Rui's instructions and turned to Xiao Xixi: "Miss, your boyfriend would like to confirm with you what time the delivery will be?" An unintentional remark made Xiao Xixi's face turn red. She wanted to explain.
For a moment - he was not a 'boyfriend' at all. But she felt that the explanation was meaningless to the other party. Yan Rui was standing next to her again, so she had to think about it hurriedly: "Noon...12 o'clock."
After leaving her address, she uncomfortably walked out of the store with Yan Rui.
"...Brother Rui, why...are you here?" Xiao Xixi felt as if her heart was being pulled by something, and she felt uncomfortable. However, the more the two of them didn't speak, the more awkward they would become, and the more awkward the atmosphere became. She opened her mouth and said something
Innocuous words.
Yan Rui replied lightly: "I was passing by and just saw you."
Only he himself knows how depressed he has been every day since that day. Like a fool, he drives downstairs of Situ Yatai Group every day, stops for more than an hour, and then leaves again.
Xiao Xixi didn't appear every day, but from the day she appeared, she was wrapped in a dazzling white bandage. His heart was so tangled and painful, but he didn't even have the courage to ask.
Including, seeing Xiao Xixi pitifully following Situ Leiyan and Gu Ruolan, the dim eyes of being ridiculed; her reluctant look when she was picked up by Zhong Yixuan... However, he never dared to appear in front of her
.
Since he woke up from his sleep that night, he saw the wide open door and the messy room, and Xiao Xixi's dress was beside him. His head hurt violently and he was still confused. He called Gu Ruolan again and found out.
After realizing what happened in the panic, he hit his head hard, not understanding how he could do such a stupid thing.
