I don't know if it was Gao Ziran's excitement last night or if I really reached the limit of my patience. I glanced at my phone and hung up immediately.
The phone rang again. I glanced at the familiar numbers on it and pressed reject. Perhaps it was because of the two rejections that Shi Lei lost control. The phone didn't ring until he got off work.
Just as I was excitedly preparing to take the bus, a voice rang in my ear. I turned around and saw Shi Lei standing in front of a car, looking at me calmly.
The car was a Honda. Shi Lei was wearing a suit and leather shoes. Standing next to the car door, he didn't look dazzling at all.
I wasn't going to pay attention to him, so I stepped forward and walked forward. As soon as I took two steps, the figure behind me grabbed my arm. I turned my head angrily and slapped him away.
The office workers coming out of the building saw my tough side. Of course, I didn't expect Shi Lei to avoid me. The more he behaved like this, the deeper the suppressed disgust in my heart became.
"Xiaojia,..." After being slapped, he still held on to me. It was really asking for death.
"Let go!" I thought my voice was cold enough, it was just trembling with anger.
"Xiaojia, listen to me..."
"I have nothing to say to you. You walk on your Yangguan Road, and I'll walk on my single-plank bridge. You're gone!"
"Something happened to Heizi..."
I had only taken two steps when Shi Lei's urgent voice rang in my ears. Heizi just separated from me two days ago. What will happen?
"Xiaojia," Shi Lei walked up to me and said, "Heizi has been detained. Can you come with me to have a look?"
I got to know Heizi because of my love affair with Shi Lei. But the love is gone, but the friendship between Heizi and I is still there. In my sophomore year, the class organization went to the mountainous area to teach. At that time, we were young and enthusiastic, and rushed to the monitor to sign up. Heizi was in our group.
The team leader led the five of us into the mountain.
It was midsummer and we were bitten by mosquitoes. It rained heavily on the second day. The mountain road was very slippery at that time. The children did not dare to go home after class. The five of us each took several children and sent them home separately. The unexpected thing was
It happened at this time. On the way back from sending the children off, the rain was getting heavier and heavier. A girl who went with us didn't return until after eight o'clock in the evening. We knew that something unexpected had happened.
Heizi was the team leader and was the first to rush out with a flashlight.
That night, there was lightning, thunder, wind and rain, but Heizi didn't come back at all and spent the whole night looking for the girl.
Based on this alone, I feel that Heizi is a man.
Even without Shi Lei's presence, I think if Heizi had a problem here, I would arrive as soon as possible.
The car stopped at the door of the police station. I glanced out of the dark car window and thought again of the night when we were teaching. Almost without hesitation, I walked in.
When I saw Heizi, his hands were being roasted and he was squatting by the wall with a sullen expression. There were several young men and women who were arrested with him, and they were obviously bad men and women at a glance.
After asking the police, they found out that all those arrested were involved in pyramid schemes. Because the amount of money involved was relatively large, bail was not allowed for the time being.
I stood aside to understand the situation while Shi Lei followed a man in uniform and walked out. Thinking of Heizi squatting in the corner, I begged and explained.
But it's no use.
A few minutes later, Shi Lei walked in from outside the door, looked at me and said, "Let's go over there."
I followed Shi Lei and walked over. As soon as the room door opened, I saw Heizi sitting at the table. He looked at us with a guilty look on his face and let out a long sigh.
Shi Lei went out, and Heizi and I were the only ones left in the room. I looked at the handcuffs on his hands and asked, "Really?"
Heizi looked at me and nodded gently.
I grabbed the paper on the table, slapped Heizi in the face, and cursed: "Xiaoyu was right to dump you. If I knew you did this, I would have broken up with you a long time ago."
Heizi just sighed and didn't make any argument. Shi Lei came from outside the door. When he saw my appearance, he tore off the paper in my hand and said in a calm voice: "You can leave in a while."
I was a little surprised, but when I raised my eyes and looked at Shi Lei, I didn't notice any unusual expression on his face. Sure enough, finding a rich wife really made a difference.
A little while ago, Heizi walked out of the house. Looking at the figure standing at the door, I suddenly sighed that things in the world are impermanent.
"Xiaoyu has always wanted to buy a house in Nanjing, but Heizi got anxious and went to extremes." Shi Lei turned around and told me.
I looked at him and suddenly thought that three years ago, he had promised me a house that belonged to the two of us, but now it is gone.
In fact, life is like this sometimes. If you don't have something, you want it desperately, but when you actually get it, you don't feel that it is rare anymore. Sadly, I always thought that there would be something, but in the end, I found out that it was just a daydream.
"When Heizi comes out, I'll leave first." I looked at Heizi and controlled my voice.
"Xiaojia," Shi Lei looked at me and hesitated to speak.
Heizi got into the car, and Shi Lei and I were the only two people left. He looked at me and said in a calm voice: "Everything I said to you is true. When the matter is settled, I will go
Looking for you."
I smiled softly and asked, "Sorry, I'm not a junkyard."
I am determined to leave, but only I know that the word free and easy is not that simple.
The phone rang again. I looked at the word "landlord" displayed on the phone and suddenly didn't know what to say. The clear ringtone rang in my ears, and finally it became quiet.
I sent a text message to Gao Zijian, telling him that I was working overtime and not to wait for me.
There was a reply to the text message very quickly. It was different from what I expected. It was just a simple "Yes."
The rain seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, so I took a taxi and ran directly towards my residence. What I didn't expect was that Gao Ziran was actually at home.
So, what about Gao Zijian? Didn’t he say that he and Gao Ziran were waiting for me to eat Western food? How...
"Ziran, where is your brother?" I looked at Gao Ziran sitting in front of the computer eating ice cream and asked suspiciously.
"I don't know. He hasn't appeared since the afternoon. I don't know where he went..."
Thinking about what Gao Zijian said to me in the morning, and thinking about the heavy rain outside, I took an umbrella and walked out directly. I asked myself, what does it mean now? Caring is just one aspect. More importantly, I know
, Gao Zijian is a more paranoid child than me.
I went out for a day this Friday and spent sixty or seventy on a taxi. Facts have proved that there is a price to pay for being friends with rich people.
When I arrived at the Western restaurant, I looked around but couldn't see Gao Zijian. The waiter walked over to me, stared at the umbrella in my hand with disdain, and asked politely: "Ms., do you have a reservation?"
"Gao Zijian," I said breathlessly, "has he been here?"
The waiter's expression changed dramatically in an instant. He pointed to the right and said, "Mr. Gao has reserved a private room, please come this way."
I breathed a little sigh of relief. The door of the box opened. I took a gentle breath and shouted: "Gao Zijian."
There wasn't even a ghost in the room.
"This lady, Mr. Gao came here at four o'clock in the afternoon. Now..."
I nodded lightly and walked towards the restaurant door.
Gao Zijian must have been too busy, so he forgot the agreement between the three of us? No, the agreement was not between three people, but... two people. What he said in the morning was a joke? But, Mr. Gao, where are you now?
I reached for my phone, only to realize that I didn't take it out at all. Where could he be when it rained so heavily?
I suddenly felt guilty for my lie, thinking that I said I was working overtime...wait, working overtime? Isn't that guy Gao Zijian still waiting for me downstairs in the company?
A simple response? Three people eating is actually two people... Many questions were recirculating in my mind. I only had 30 yuan in my pocket to take a taxi. Looking at the heavy rain in the sky, I don’t know where it came from.
With courage, I raised my feet and ran towards the downstairs of the company.
I didn't know what Gao Zijian was doing, and the feeling of guilt in my heart gradually increased. The rain covered my shoes. I lifted my feet and moved forward like flying.
The most common thing my mother said when I was a child was that the people who love you most in the world are your mother and father. The love that other people have for you is not for no reason. When I grow up, I feel that this sentence is very reasonable. For outsiders, I
There will always be this feeling.
Who can stand your endless complaints? Who will silently bear everything you give? Who will let you show off your face, and who will listen to your big words. In my opinion, the only ones are your parents.
Now Gao Zijian makes me see vaguely. His kindness to me seems real, but in fact it is exaggerated. But in such exaggeration, I can feel that I will slowly come to believe it.
It comes quickly, but after all, it makes people feel uneasy.
There was a burst of thunder, and I rushed downstairs to the company. I shook the water off my feet, put away my umbrella, raised my head, and walked towards the lobby.
As soon as I took a step, I heard a voice.
I turned around with some suspicion, but didn't see Gao Zijian's figure. I sighed softly, raised my feet again, and heard the voice again.
"Chen Xiaojia, I'm here."
I turned my head again and glanced at the dim hall, and then I suddenly discovered Gao Zijian sitting under the vase.
Different from the suave Gao Zijian in the past, this time he was extremely embarrassed and seemed to be wet. He sat down next to the vase and looked up at me.
"Gao Zijian, which planet are you from? How could it be like this?"
Gao Zijian looked at me, his eyes suddenly narrowed, which made people shudder, and said: "Chen Xiaojia, just in time, I also want to ask you, why do you have to work overtime outside?"
