"Wen Tong, you and Director Ji are chatting while I leave for a moment." Ye Bai made an excuse and left the hall because he saw Bei Chenxiao leaving just now.
Outside the bathroom, Ye Bai leaned against the wall, smoking a cigarette and looking at his watch.
Soon, Bei Chenxiao opened the door and walked out. When he saw him, his eyes were calm and he seemed not surprised at all.
"You are really in a good mood. You are standing outside the toilet waiting for me." Bei Chenxiao put one hand in his trouser pocket and curled his thin lips in a mocking arc, "Do you like the taste?"
Ye Bai was not angry and stretched out his arms to extinguish the cigarette butt in his hand.
He raised his head and said provocatively: "Don't you feel anything when you see Wen Tong with me?"
"Yes." Bei Chenxiao said as if he suddenly realized, "It turns out that you like the woman I played with. If you had told me earlier, I would have given her to you."
"You can't lie to me. The more you hide it like this, the more you care about her. Am I right?" Ye Bai's eyes were aggressive.
Bei Chenxiao remained expressionless and raised his beautiful eyebrows, "You have a mouth, so I can't stop you from saying anything. If you brought her here to demonstrate to me on purpose, I can tell you clearly,
Your wishful thinking has failed. To me, she is just a has-been woman. Whether you kiss, hug and go to bed with her has nothing to do with me."
After Bei Chenxiao finished speaking, he turned and left.
Ye Bai kept watching his figure disappear, the sneer at the corner of his mouth slowly widening.
As soon as Beichen Xiao entered the hall, he happened to meet Wen Tong who had just finished chatting with Ji An.
There was only half a step between the two of them, and they almost bumped into each other.
"Sorry." Wen Tong smiled apologetically, turned around and left without looking at Beichen Xiao.
"Wen Tong." Uncontrollably, Bei Chenxiao called her.
Wen Tong paused, turned around, and asked with some surprise: "You... know me?"
Beichenxiao was speechless. When they met again, he imagined many kinds of reactions from her, including ignoring him, hating him, and provoking him. But the only thing he never thought about was that she would pretend not to know him.
"Wen Tong, what a coincidence, you are here too." Xia Shulei held the wine glass and walked over gracefully, as gracefully as a butterfly.
Impartially, right between the two of them.
Wen Tong frowned slightly, "Who are you?"
As soon as these words came out, Bei Chenxiao and Xia Shulei were stunned.
"Wen Tong, it's time to go back." Ye Bai hugged Wen Tong's shoulders from behind and said gently and considerately: "I'll see you off."
He raised his head and looked at Bei Chenxiao, with provocation in his eyes, "Young Master, Miss Xia, take the first step."
Wen Tong left with Ye Bai, and after taking two steps, she couldn't help but look back, and met Bei Chenxiao's probing gaze. It was as if she was electrocuted, and she hurriedly avoided it.
Standing at the door, Wen Tong asked in a daze: "Do I know them?"
Ye Bai was about to pick up the car, but when he heard these words, he turned around in confusion.
The expression on Wen Tong's face was a little confused, as if she was struggling with something but couldn't get the result.
She almost looked at Ye Bai with pleading eyes, wanting to get an answer from him.
Ye Bai walked up to her, held her chin with his long fingers, and raised her little face.
This face was clear, clean, and extremely beautiful. He wanted to find a trace of disguise on this face, but he couldn't find it.
The doubt and confusion flashing in those eyes would not be so strong if it did not come from the heart.
"You really don't know them?"
Wen Tong shook her head, "I can't remember, but I feel like we've seen each other before..."
She pressed her temples painfully, "My head hurts."
"Since you can't remember it, don't think about it." Ye Bai considerately pressed her temples, "If you feel uncomfortable, I will take you home."
"Um."
"Stand here and don't move. I'll go get the car."
Ye Bai turned around, the tender expression on his face immediately turned into ice, and his long brows furrowed into a small "Sichuan" character.
Has Wen Tong really forgotten Beichen Xiao?
Judging from her various performances tonight, it really didn't look like she was just pretending.
He had two purposes today. One was to make Beichen Xiao angry, and the other was to test whether Wen Tong still had feelings for Beichen Xiao. As long as people have feelings, they can be exploited.
As a result, everything was beyond his expectation.
On the way back, Wen Tong blinked lightly and was still rubbing her temples.
"Your head still hurts?" Ye Bai slowed down the car and asked with concern.
"Um."
"Actually, I have always wanted to ask you, what happened six years ago? Why did you leave suddenly?"
"This issue is not within your scope of concern." Wen Tong said coldly, "We are not friends yet."
"Then it's okay if I ask as my boss?"
"This is not work time, and I have the right not to answer questions that are not work-related."
Ye Bai smiled helplessly, "Wen Tong, do you have to talk to me like this?"
Wen Tong opened her eyes and said funny: "You just want to continue to use me. There is no one else here, so there is no need to act."
Ye Bai's face froze, his pupils suddenly tightened, and veins appeared on the hand holding the steering wheel.
He was used to the tolerant and simple Wen Tong, and this feeling of having his thoughts easily penetrated made him anxious.
But he quickly calmed down and sighed inaudibly, "Are you still blaming me?"
"Stop the car." Wen Tong said suddenly.
Under the influence of inertia, Ye Bai suddenly stepped on the brakes.
Wen Tong pushed the car door open and closed the door, she raised a cold smile, "I will always remember what you asked your men to do to me. No matter what your intentions are, I just want to advise you."
One sentence, don't spend too much time on me, otherwise I will return it even harder."
Bang, the car door closed, shutting her beautiful figure out of his world.
Ye Bai sat in the car in silence for a long time before lighting a cigarette.
Wen Tong's figure had already gone away. He opened the drawer in the car and took out a bottle. There was nothing in the bottle, but there once was a bottle of rock sugar snow pear.
He still remembered that she put the bottle in his hand and said to him with concern, I heard you coughing, so I cooked rock sugar pear for you.
Who was such a kind and gentle girl who forced her to be put on the chopping block of fate, making her suffer all kinds of torture and leave her homeless?
He is also one of them.
She struggled to sprout buds from the gaps in her life, and blossomed into delicate roses, which were beautiful but had thorns.
She is on guard against everyone, especially those who have hurt her.
Ye Bai leaned on his seat, put his hand on his forehead, and let out a regretful sigh.
Wen Tong didn't bring a coat and was wearing an evening dress for the banquet.
The cool night breeze blew and made her shiver. She crossed her arms and quickened her pace.
The community where she lives is getting closer and closer, and she can already see the lights upstairs.
She thought happily that Ding Ding must have fallen asleep.
As soon as I turned the corner, I saw a person standing under the streetlight in front of me.
The slender figure is projected on the asphalt ground, dressed in black, as if it has been transformed into the dark night.
The dim light enveloped him. He turned back from the light and shadow, his amber eyes flashing like stars.
Wen Tong's steps seemed to be frozen by the cold, and she could no longer move even half a step.
