In the restaurant, Qin Muzhen was stunned for half a second by the sudden beep beep sound coming from his cell phone. He dialed it angrily, but it showed that the phone was turned off. How dare she hang up on him?!
When the man got angry, he slammed his cell phone to the ground.
Su Ruo, who was across the dining table, was startled, "What happened?"
Qin Mushi sat down, drank two sips of tea, and managed to calm down. He glanced at her, slightly coldly: "I have made it clear to you, Miss Su, about what should be said in the contract. If there are no problems,
At eight o'clock tomorrow morning, please ask Miss Su to come to Disheng again."
After he finished speaking, he picked up his suit, put it on, and walked out the door.
Su Ruo hurriedly picked up her bag and followed him step by step. Qin Mujie opened the car door and was about to sit in, but when he saw her following him, he couldn't help but turn around and look at her, frowning.
His gaze was so sharp that she couldn't help but lower her head and murmured: "It's so late, there are no buses anymore, and I don't dare to take a taxi alone, can you please trouble..."
She paused at her words, but he already understood. He has always been a person who distinguishes between public and private affairs. He will never have too much contact with female employees after work. He was just about to refuse.
But he saw the girl in front of him suddenly reaching out and pushing a few strands of broken hair behind her ears. Under the dim street light, he could vaguely see a small black mole in the girl's white palm.
This is... He paused.
Su Ruo raised her head and asked carefully: "Is it okay?"
Qin Muzhi pondered, and suddenly remembered her decisive rejection on the phone just now. He couldn't help but feel a little irritated. He didn't answer her, and directly sat in the driver's seat. After waiting for a few minutes, seeing that she didn't respond, he pressed the button again.
A few horn blasts.
Su Ruo understood, hurriedly got into the passenger seat, and said shyly: "No. 13, Moyuan Road, please Mr. Qin..."
The car sped through the night neither fast nor slow. Qin Mu decided to drive silently, but the tight line of his lips revealed the deep unhappiness in his heart.
In this silence, Su Ruo, who had always been taciturn, seemed to have opened up a chatterbox, chattering non-stop along the way.
"Mr. Qin, what is your favorite food?"
"……."
"I like to eat mangoes, and my favorite is mango-flavored cake."
"..." He glanced at her coldly, without responding.
She continued: "Mr. Qin, do you have any wishes that you want to realize?" After thinking about it, she muttered to herself: "Mr. Qin, you are so rich and have so many things, how can you have a wish that cannot be realized? Unlike me
, you have to work hard and save money..."
The too depressed expression on her face made his cold expression slightly loosen: "Oh? Why are you saving money?"
Seeing that he finally cared about her, Su Ruo said happily: "Save up money to travel. My dream is to travel to every corner of the world with my backpack on my back."
Qin Mujue was slightly startled. There seemed to be such a person in his memory. He jumped into his arms and said the same words in the same excited tone: "Mujue, my biggest wish is to travel all over the world with you."
Every inch of the world.”
He said: "This dream is very good."
"What about you?" Su Ruo asked, "Mr. Qin, do you have any dreams?"
His dream? He didn't know that his dream was to accompany her to the corners of the world. But after she died...
Qin Mujie replied stiffly: "I have no dreams."
"Don't have a dream?" Su Ruo said with a regretful expression: "Mr. Qin, you are so pitiful..."
He laughed. He actually saw sympathy in her eyes just now? A word that had never appeared in the eyes of others since he became an adult.
"No one ever called me poor."
"That's because others are afraid of you..." Su Ruo thought for a moment and then said: "In other words, Mr. Qin, you always bury your emotions very deep. Others can't see through your happiness.
Your anger, your happiness, your unhappiness... naturally I won't pity you..."
"It doesn't matter whether you are happy or not. No matter what, the day will pass like this. It will not change because you are happy, nor will it stagnate because you are unhappy..."
"But when people are unhappy, they should find something to do that makes them happy, so that life will be interesting." She paused, "Just like just now, after Mr. Qin answered the phone, he was obviously in a bad mood.
But you can’t find a way to vent, don’t you feel tired living like this?”
He pursed his lips and said nothing.
Su Ruo continued talking to herself: "Like me, if I encounter something unhappy, I will buy a mango cake. Then I will get on a bus and sit down without purpose. While eating, I will read
Looking at the familiar but unfamiliar scenery outside the window. From the starting point to the end, and then back again... coming and going, it seems like experiencing a long journey of life. Any unhappy things seem to have been thrown away...
….”
"Your method is very special..." he said, slightly dazed. Memory fragments suddenly appeared in his mind one by one like slow-motion movie clips.
***** *****
At that time, it seemed to be seven years ago, it was the first time she was angry with him. She could not remember the reason for the quarrel. She only remembered that in the end she threw a thick stack of books on him and said: "Qin Mujie, I
Never pay attention to you again!"
Then he ran out angrily. At that time, he was so young and had a fierce temper. Although he was a little panicked, he still had a calm expression on his face and refused to chase her out of anger.
As a result, she didn't come to class on the first day of class, but he remained calm.
The next day in class, she still didn't come. He felt irritable but pretended to be calm on the outside.
On the third day, she still didn't come. After being irritated all day, he finally lost face and went to look for her. However, he waited at the door of her apartment all night, but no one was seen.
On the fourth day, she disappeared without any news, and he began to panic. Could she have met some bad guy? Could something happen to her?
The fifth day, the sixth day, the seventh day...
Just when he was almost desperate, she finally appeared. That night, when she took out the key and opened the door, she suddenly saw him looking pitifully from the corner like a homeless stray dog.
It popped out, and I couldn't help but be startled.
"Manru..." For the first time, he lowered his noble head in front of her and said, "I'm sorry..."
What followed was a passionate kiss after a long separation. That night, she lay beside his bed, caressing all the way down from the peak of his frown to the bridge of his nose, and stopped at the corner of his mouth, which was always thin and narrow. She gently touched it.
Said lightly: "Simujue......"
His eyelashes fluttered, but he did not open his eyes.
"Actually, I just wanted to take the bus out to relax and scare you. But the car stopped at the entrance of an animal park. I saw that they were recruiting volunteers, so I went there for a few days just for fun. If I had known you were here like this
If you wait hard for me, I won’t go..."
She lowered her head and kissed the corner of his lips: "Simujue, if you find me missing next time, go to the bus stop and wait for me. In the end, I will always get off one of the cars..."
