Li Weiwei was drinking beer depressedly when she was suddenly robbed. She was about to complain, but when she saw her friend raising her head to drink, tears suddenly appeared in the corners of her eyes.
She was stunned and looked at Lu Li hesitantly.
But Lu Li held the cup and turned his head to glance at the man next to him. Seeing no reaction from him, he drank the cup.
Li Weiwei couldn't help curling her lips and said, "I thought you were drinking wine."
As if he didn't notice her strange mood, Lu Li asked with a smile, "Do you want to add more vegetables?"
"That's enough, there's still a clam left." Li Weiwei rubbed her hands and pushed her shoulder against the side, "I can't wait to try the clam that even Jiang Jiang praised!"
"Speaking of clams, I know a store that is particularly delicious..." Liao Zeqing took the opportunity to interject.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Li Weiwei returned to being perfunctory, responding with "Hmm" and "Hmm". She kept paying attention to Jiang Ningyu from the corner of her eye. When the clams came up, she first picked up two large ones for her before tasting them herself.
A good barbecue, but because of an inadvertent action, the taste was not good. Jiang Ningyu just wanted to sigh.
The rain has slowed down slightly. The continuous drizzle weaves into hazy filaments under the street lights, soft and bright.
When they were going out, the cool wind blew over with the dampness. When Jiang Ningyu couldn't stand the pause, Li Weiwei came over and pulled her arm, giving a hint of asking for help.
Jiang Ningyu immediately noticed Liao Zeqing who was following closely behind her. She knew what was going on, and she quickly stepped forward, and when Lin Xuyue's hand touched the passenger door, she pulled him.
At that moment, she held his hand, not his clothes or anything else. She thought it was the alcohol that emboldened her. But she was not drunk, and her mind was extremely clear. She even felt the other person's subconscious tremble, as if it was like fire.
After being warmed by the hot palm, she still didn't let go as if nothing was wrong.
Then the moment Lin Xuyue looked over, she calmed her expression, winked behind him, let him go, and made a small "please" gesture.
Lin Xuyue glanced at Li Weiwei and understood. He took two steps back and said to Liao Zeqing, "I'll sit in the back."
Liao Zeqing was stunned for a moment, but then he looked at him and then at Jiang Ningyu, and smiled as if he had understood something inside. "Okay, you guys can reminisce about the past."
However, no one reminisced about the past.
Jiang Ningyu had already made mental preparations for chatting, how to avoid making the atmosphere awkward, how to act naturally...but Lin Xuyue didn't sit next to her at all.
He stood by the car door and waited for her and Li Weiwei to get in before sitting in.
After being separated from each other, she naturally gave up her habit of talking when she had nothing to say. And Li Weiwei and him... had nothing to say.
Jiang Ningyu felt that he did it on purpose. In this way, he could not only show his demeanor but also distance himself and clear up the relationship. This was good, as it saved her from having to rack her brains thinking about how to maintain the false friendship.
She thought so, but she lowered her head and involuntarily squeezed the hand that had just grabbed him. The touch that ended in the blink of an eye made her feel a little dazed.
During the silence all the way, she didn't notice Li Weiwei's sitting posture, which was even stiffer than hers, until Lu Li drove the car to the door of her community.
"Are you going home?" Jiang Ningyu turned her head and saw Li Weiwei sitting upright like a primary school student attending class.
The eyes of my best friend were a bit sad and tearful, and he nodded feebly, "I'll have a flight tomorrow morning."
"Okay." Jiang Ningyu was about to push the car door, but Lu Li stopped her, "Get off on the right side."
However, the man sitting on the far right did not respond, as if he was still immersed in some thoughts.
Sometimes bad thoughts arise in an instant.
Li Weiwei was about to remind Lin Xuyue to open the door, but she saw her friend lowering her body and stepping over her. One arm went to open the door, and the other arm was put on Lin Xuyue's shoulder as if it was unstable. I don't know if it was.
Carefully or intentionally, she didn't touch the collar, but instead seemed to have hooked the back of his neck.
The area on the back of the cervical vertebra is considered a sensitive area, so Li Weiwei clearly saw the man raise his eyes, his eyes alert and sharp for a moment. But probably because he saw that she was not stable when getting off the car, he not only did not hide, but raised his hand to help her.
Bundle.
If Lin Xuyue's actions can be explained by "good intentions", then Jiang Ningyu's little actions seem unreasonable. If Li Weiwei hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never believe that someone could perform such a simple action as getting out of the car.
.and also her best friend.
You won't get drunk after just two sips of beer, right? You don't have enough alcohol to drink...
Li Weiwei was puzzled. Apparently someone had the same idea. Lin Xuyue got out of the car and said to the two people in front of her, "You go first, I'll take a taxi back." Then he nodded to her and closed the door.
Li Weiwei suddenly understood. She shook her stiff arms, took out her mobile phone and typed:
[You are obviously getting along with Yue Se classmate again! Why don’t you let me get in the car first? I’m sitting in the middle and can’t even look at my phone... I’ve never been so nervous when meeting a customer! 】
…
As soon as Jiang Ningyu walked into the community, she heard the sound of someone chasing after her quickly. She was startled at first, but when she turned around and saw who it was, she lowered her guard.
"Why are you..." Jiang Ningyu looked behind him and saw that no one else was following him. Then she touched her pocket and saw that her cell phone was there. It was not like she had left something behind.
"I'll take you downstairs."
Lin Xuyue didn't explain much, but she understood instantly and said helplessly, "You don't think that two sips of beer can make me drunk, do you? Five ounces of white is about the same."
She looked confident as if she didn't know where it came from. Lin Xuyue moved her lips, as if she wanted to say something scolding, but in the end she just said, "Then I stumbled when I got out of the car."
His tone was neither good nor bad. It didn't seem to have anything to do with ridicule, it was just stating a fact.
But Jiang Ningyu didn't want to explain her sudden bad intentions. She hesitated for a moment and said, "You know, script killing is script killing, right?"
There was no beginning or end, no connection, Lin Xuyue turned her head and glanced at her, "So?"
"Although you shot the murderer and guessed that Lan Ling was an accomplice, I am not Lan Ling."
"I know."
"She is a self-centered and selfish person. She is not eating from the bowl and looking at the pot, nor is she playing with emotions...she follows whoever is useful to her..."
"Am I talking about Lan Ling?" Lin Xuyue interrupted her ramblings.
After being speechless for two seconds, Jiang Ningyu stopped and looked back at him with wide eyes. Before she could speak, she suddenly heard him ask, "Do you like Lu Li?"
