At seven o'clock in the evening, I arrived at the Shuiyun Pavilion Leisure Club on time.
This clubhouse is built in a garden style. Garden-style courtyards are relatively rare in the city of Chongqing.
And it is still in a downtown area, but it is quiet in the bustle. It goes without saying how much a garden-style yard in this location is worth.
To choose to open such a teahouse here is either a lunatic or you have too much money to spend.
Of course, the consumption here is not low. I heard that the entrance fee alone is as high as 600 yuan, which means that even if you don't drink tea, it will cost 600 yuan just to come in and take pictures.
I was a little surprised that An Lan chose to meet me here.
After entering the park, I was led by the hostess in cheongsam and walked through several winding cobblestone roads before arriving at an independent courtyard.
There are rockeries, fish ponds, and a mini bamboo forest in the yard.
This is the ultimate interpretation of Chinese style, just like the back garden of a palace.
At this time, An Lan was sitting in the middle of the wooden house. There was a tea table in front of her, and she looked very elegant as she was playing with the tea sets.
Miss etiquette brought me and left. An Lan knew that I had arrived, but she did not raise her head to look at me.
She was still playing with the tea set in her hand, and other than indifference, I could no longer feel any special emotion in her.
"In my impression, you don't seem to drink tea." As I said this, I walked towards her.
"Really? That proves that you don't understand me." She replied calmly, then pointed to the side and said, "Please sit down."
I chuckled, sat down cross-legged on the legless stool next to me, and said, "When did we start using the word 'please' between us?"
She didn't answer me, she was still so indifferent.
After a while, she handed me a cup of clear tea, finally looked at me and said, "Please drink tea."
"Do I have to use the word 'please'?"
She still didn't answer me and continued to play with her tea set, which made me very irritable.
This feeling is like a heavy punch hitting a ball of cotton, very weak.
Anyway, if she can meet me at this time, I don't expect her to have a good attitude toward me.
I was not in the mood to drink tea, so I directly said to her: "I know you hate me in your heart, so I won't say anything more, but I want to say sorry to you about Liang Jing... This time, it's
I misunderstood you...but this misunderstanding is the happiest misunderstanding in my history."
After I finished speaking, I looked at her, hoping to get her answer, but she still looked casual and elegant.
I opened my mouth half-open and wanted to say something, but I didn't know what to say.
At this time, An Lan finally spoke again: "Let's drink tea!"
"I'm not here to drink tea, I'm here to apologize to you."
"Drink tea first."
I was a little depressed, so I just picked up the tea cup and drank it in one gulp.
After putting down the tea cup, she handed me another cup.
I finally got a little annoyed and said in a louder voice: "An Lan, what do you mean? You gave me a chance to meet you, but you treat me with this attitude. What on earth do you want?"
She finally stopped her movements, but her movements were still very slow. She slowly put down the tea set in her hands and then looked at me and said, "Do you know why I invited you here?"
"I don't know." I replied still very angry.
"I'll buy this place."
I was stunned for a moment, really frightened by her words.
It’s not easy to buy this place! It’s impossible to get it without tens of millions.
"Do you know why I bought this place?" In my shock, she asked me again.
"Want to prove that you are rich?"
She smiled calmly and said: "The owner of this garden is an old friend of my father's. He passed away and his two sons were dissatisfied, so he thought of transferring the garden and the money would be given directly to his two sons."
"Then what?" I didn't understand what she meant when she told me this.
"I just need such a place. Such a quiet place amidst the hustle and bustle is my most ideal place to live."
"It's better to prove that you have money."
"This garden cost me a lot of money, almost all my savings. This is the price the old gentleman gave me as a family gift."
"What on earth do you want to say?" I became more and more confused.
"What do you think, if I move the company here?"
I'm getting more and more confused. Why are we talking about our own things and no one is in the other's channel?
"An Lan, if you asked me to come here just to show me how rich you are, then there is no need, because I now know that you are the only heir to the Anshi Jiahua Group, one of the three major consortiums in the European Union... So, this
Is a little money still a lot for you, Miss An?"
An Lan lowered his head and smiled. That smile was really beautiful, but it gave me a familiar yet unfamiliar feeling.
I still remember the way she lay in my arms and acted coquettishly with me, I still remember the way she deliberately put cream on the corner of her mouth while eating ice cream and wanted me to wipe it off for her, and I still remember the days when she accompanied me to deliver takeaways...
I remember more things, but now I feel that she is becoming more and more strange, so strange that when I sit in front of her, I feel that she is thousands of miles away from me.
This was the first time that I recalled the scene that would come to mind countless times when I closed my eyes in front of An Lan.
I even told these scenes in front of An Lan. I just wanted to get her sympathy. I didn't believe she wouldn't feel anything at all.
Also, I hope she can help me verify that this is something that has really happened to me, rather than a fantasy dream.
That's why I want to know how she feels at this moment.
But……
An Lan looked at me calmly and remained silent for a long time.
I sighed, then laughed at myself and said, "Well, I'm not here today to look for memories. I'll just treat this as a dream. Since it's a dream, there will be a day when I wake up.
It’s time for me to wake up too.”
An Lan finally caught up with my words and whispered to me: "I have met many people, and I can see through many people's hearts, but I can't see through yours alone... To put it more clearly, it's me
There is no way to understand why you did all this..."
Speaking of this, she suddenly closed her eyes, as if to relieve the emotions in her heart.
After a moment, he continued: "You know what? I have never been worried about the photo. I know it is fake, and I also know the means that Min Wenbin used to deal with me, but do you know why I am so angry?"
I looked at her, suddenly I didn't know what to say, and I was afraid of saying something suddenly.
In my silence, An Lan continued: "It's because I feel that compared to Liang Jing, my position in your heart is not that high. From my point of view, all your performances show that you care more about Liang Jing...
"
When he said this, An Lan's emotions suddenly lost control, and his voice became louder than before: "But we were the ones who were together back then, shouldn't you care more about my feelings?"
I don't know why, but seeing her angry made me happier than before, because it proved that she still had emotions.
After a moment of silence, I finally said to her: "No matter what you think, in short, I am not ashamed of you. Maybe you think I am too ambiguous to others, but I know what I believe in."
Having said this, I finally raised my head to meet An Lan's eyes, smiled and asked her: "Do you know why I want to help Liang Jing like this?"
