"Xi Yu, welcome back!" He Tian held up the goblet, touched it lightly with the cup in Mo Xiyu's hand, and then looked at Mo Xiyu up and down with admiration, with a smile on his face.
Three years have passed, and the youthfulness she once had has completely faded away. The woman she is now is wise, confident, and beautiful. The harsh environment in City C has not only not made her grow older, but has actually made her lose the fragility of the little woman she once was.
It has an even more unique charm.
"I heard from Xue Ruan that your wife is about to give birth?" In the past few years, the relationship between the two has developed from a superior-subordinate relationship to a private friendship.
He Chao took a sip of wine, his face filled with rich happiness, "Yes, I'm about to give birth. Watching your Zaizai in the video every day, she almost has fantasies. If she doesn't give birth, my ears can't stand it?"
"
Mo Xiyu shrugged her shoulders, covered her mouth and laughed, "Zai Zai's mouth... It's open to all young and old, all men and women, don't you worry about it?"
"Mo Xiyu!" Xue Ruan's voice came from behind with some urgency.
Before Mo Xiyu could turn around, he was hugged by Xue Ruan. "Damn it, didn't you say it would take a while? You're actually teasing me!" Xue Ruan said as he let go of Mo Xiyu, and then pushed hard.
Lower her head.
Mo Xiyu rolled her eyes at him, "Okay, I clearly said it was today, okay? You are so busy every day that you forgot about it, and you still have the nerve to complain first!" After saying that, she pulled He Chao and said, "Let's go, let's go."
Sit over there and ignore this busy man!"
Xue Ruan stepped forward and pulled her, "Where is Zai Zai? You didn't bring him here?"
Mo Xiyu shook his head, "Bring him here? Come on, kid, if you can stop until you make this venue a mess, just hit me!" Mo Xiyu frowned, "As long as she thinks of that troublesome guy at home, she will
I really want to collapse.
He Chao happened to have a guest, so he greeted him. Mo Xiyu said goodbye to Xue Ruan and found a seat alone.
"Xiyu..."
A familiar voice came from behind him, and Mo Xiyu's hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly. This voice had appeared in dreams many times, but...
Her steps suddenly stopped, she pursed her lips, slit her mouth, turned around, subconsciously raised her eyes, and followed the sound casually. He was tall and straight, exuding a sense of self-reliance and self-reliance. After not seeing each other for several years, he seemed to be getting more and more...
The better.
"Hello!" The unfamiliar and distant greeting made Leng Shaotian's tall body take two steps back, as if he had suddenly lost all his strength.
Eyes full of pain looked deeply at the beautiful face so close at hand, so familiar, but why did it feel so strange.
"Xi Yu..." Leng Shaotian continued.
Mo Xiyu smiled and nodded, seemingly friendly, but clearly showing alienation.
Seeing that Leng Shaotian didn't speak, Mo Xiyu leaned forward slightly, stepped back and turned around, then walked to the other side of the venue. The whole process was elegant and calm, and there was nothing wrong with it, but only Mo Xiyu knew it.
What a mess in her heart.
Three years later, she thought about how to meet again countless times, but... she never thought that she would be caught off guard like this. She found He Chao's figure in the crowd and walked over.
"Why is he here?" she asked aloud.
He Chao shook his head with an innocent face, "Well, the people invited were all booked by the people below. I... really don't know anything!" In fact, his hesitation was the best answer.
Mo Xiyu took a deep breath and then said with relief, "Then what? Are you going to match us up?" In the past three years, the biggest change in her personality is that she has become more straightforward and no longer as submissive as before. What are you thinking?
Just say something.
He Chao said nothing and looked over her shoulder. Mo Xiyu turned around and saw Xue Ruan, who was also smiling strangely. His intuition told him that this matter was not over yet.
"Xiyu, I... will pick up my wife first, and you drink slowly first!" He Chao said as he stepped up to leave. After thinking about it, he looked back at Mo Xiyu:
"Don't worry, we will never take action or talk too much. You... just let nature take its course!" Then he rushed out of the door.
"Um, my girlfriend today is still over there, Xiyu, I'll look for you later!" Xue Ruan, who had just followed, saw this and quickly moved away before he could even stand firm.
In the past few years, Xue Ruan's female companions have changed frequently. Mei said: The awakening after escaping from death.
Mo Xiyu stood in the center of the venue holding a wine glass. Although no one she knew came to toast her, she felt inexplicably lonely. This was a word that often appeared in the past three years.
She found a dimly lit place and sat down. Today He Chao said it was to catch the wind for her, but... she understood that that was not their intention.
But, they knew her so well, how could they not understand her?
If there is really a chance, how can the past three years be safe and sound... Silly!
Thinking about it, he raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
No matter how unforgettable the memory is, it cannot withstand the cruelty of time. The past, whether it is love, injury or hate, will fade away little by little with time...
Be it the Leng family or Leng Shaotian!
In three years, she had already frozen these things in the corner of her memory.
"Drinking like this will hurt your stomach!" A voice accompanied by a worried cry suddenly came from not far away.
Mo Xiyu was startled for a moment, then raised her head, her sharp eyes piercing the turbid air, staring at the man with complicated eyes. After just a second, she slowly looked away and missed his gaze.
.....
Then she drank all the wine in the glass. She didn't need ambiguity, and she hated these two words.
Because, enough is enough!
Heart, unusually calm...
Her eyes deeply stimulated Leng Shaotian. He stood frozen on the spot as if he was stupid. After a while, he murmured in pain: "Mo Xiyu..."
The corners of Mo Xiyu's lips twitched slightly, and her gentle eyes became colder little by little.
He took a deep breath and then raised his head: "Mayor Leng, do you have anything to do with me?"
Her eyes were calm and there was nothing strange about her.
Mo Xiyu looked at the man in front of her and his face was instantly confused. He looked at her with extremely complicated eyes, but... she was indifferent...
"You didn't lose your memory? Did you?" Leng Shaotian frowned fiercely, stared at Mo Xiyu and spoke slowly.
Since there is no amnesia, how can it be such a reaction?
Mo Xiyu lowered his head, then raised his eyes to look at the tall figure not far away who exuded a sense of sadness. Slowly, a faint smile appeared on the corners of his lips...
How difficult it is to forget, and how painful it is to remember, so she doesn't want to remember...
The pain of that year was still vivid in her mind, she had had enough!
Leng Shaotian just stood there, staring at Mo Xiyu. Shock, ecstasy, heartache, all kinds of emotions were intertwined in his heart. He couldn't help but keep shaking. He finally saw her.
.
In the past three years, he had tried every means but could not find her. He Chao and Xue Ruan took almost every measure they could think of to protect her.
My heart, which had been in despair for more than three years, came alive the moment I saw her...
However……
He raised his head and covered his face with his hands to prevent the warmth in his eyes from flowing...
She is back, he should be happy, should be happy, should be laughing, but why is he so empty in his heart? It feels like he has lost something important.
"Mayor Leng, are you... okay?"
Mo Xiyu poured herself another glass of wine, then picked up the glass and asked casually. The carelessness in her eyes made Leng Shaotian instantly lose his sense of proportion.
He stepped forward in three steps, grabbed Mo Xiyu's shoulders with both hands, then stared at her with blood-red eyes, and asked urgently with a trembling voice: "Mo Xiyu, look at me, I am
Leng Shaotian, I am Leng Shaotian..."
Mo Xiyu was stunned for a moment, but after a few seconds, he returned to his original state, nodded and said calmly: "I know you are Leng Shaotian." Then nothing more happened.
Leng Shaotian's whole body was in chaos, his heart was tightly clenched, and all the nerves in his body were tense to the extreme. He looked pale and breathed heavily: "Then... then why don't you seem to know me?
Xiyu, where have you been in the past three years??" As he said, he pointed at his forehead and made random gestures, looking at Mo Xiyu eagerly.
"Are you going to study? Look, is the diamond ring on my hand beautiful?" Mo Xiyu responded unhurriedly. At the same time, she raised her right hand and shook the ring on her middle finger in front of Leng Shaotian.
diamond ring.
Leng Shaotian opened his mouth, and after a while, he asked in a hissing voice: "Are you... married?"
"It's over!" Mo Xiyu was stunned for a few seconds, then nodded, his serious expression showing no signs of lying.
She originally just wanted to tell him that this was the most successful thing she had done in the past three years, but...he misunderstood...That's fine, let alone find a reason.
"Married? Mo Xiyu, how can you just get married like this?" Leng Shaotian roared and gasped hard. He suddenly grabbed Mo Xiyu's arm again, staring at her with piercing eyes, anxiously.
He shouted and asked: "Who is he? Tell me, who is he?"
"Um..." Mo Xiyu frowned in embarrassment. It was really not easy to lie. Now, there was really no way to end it.
"Mom!" A childish voice came from behind Leng Shaotian.
Mo Xiyu's eyes lit up, then she waved away Leng Shaotian's hand, walked around him, quickly walked over, and picked up the little boy on the ground. "Zai Zai, why are you here? Didn't mom say that she and Eminem will be waiting at home tonight?
Mom?" she said, kissing the little boy's face and speaking in a doting tone.
Zaizai looked behind Mo Xiyu at the pale Leng Shaotian, then his face sank and he said seriously: "Mom, are you talking to a strange uncle again? I really want to tell dad when I go home!
"
The childish voice is very sweet, but to Leng Shaotian, it is...
