"Young man, get it!" The old man put the fruit in a plastic box and handed it to Lu Yuan.
Carrying the fruit, Lu Yuan did not return to his residence.
Instead, he went to Wujiang University.
Arrive at the East Lake.
It was already dark at this time, and the lakeside was very quiet, with only the dim light of the streetlights on the road not far away.
Lu Yuan sat by the lake and carefully used a fruit knife to cut off the rotten and damaged parts of the rotten apples, rotten bananas and rotten oranges. Then he cut the other intact parts into small pieces and placed them in a plastic box.
.
I don't know why, but when doing these things, Lu Yuan felt very at ease.
It's like time has stood still.
Just because when he does this kind of thing, Zhou Yun's shadow is in his mind.
Finally, Lu Yuanlei's wrists were sore, but he finally filled a plastic box with cut fruits, as if he had seen the way it looked when Zhou Yun first brought him fruits.
He picked up a piece of fruit and put it in his mouth. When he tasted the first bite, Lu Yuan felt that familiar feeling, as if time had returned to the past.
I seem to see that good-looking girl taking out a box of fruit from her schoolbag by the Jinghu Lake at that time.
"Zhou Yun..."
Lu Yuan only said these two words, but he couldn't say any more.
I couldn't help but want to cry.
Even the fruit in my mouth became a bit bitter.
"Zhou Yun, where are you?" Lu Yuan was lying on his back on the grass by the lake, with confusion in his eyes.
At this time, Cao Mansion.
Cao Qian and Cao Hong have returned.
"Sister, now you know the true face of that Xiong Yao! If Brother Yuan hadn't saved us, what happened just now would have been unimaginable! That Xiong Yao is just a playboy. While he is attentive to you, he goes to bars with other women.
He is so ambiguous, how can you like this kind of person?" Cao Qian said.
"Yes." Cao Hong also nodded, although there was an indescribable mist and sadness in his eyes.
"Sister, to be honest, I'm quite surprised. How could you fall in love with someone like Xiong Yao? Although he is very good at picking up girls, according to your personality, you should sneer at people like him. Why do you
She will fall in love with him, oh, how strange it is
Weird," Cao Qian said with a relaxed and happy expression on her face again, "Forget it, don't think about it so much. In short, from now on, just ignore him. At least I didn't waste my efforts in taking you to the bar today.
, come, let’s eat fruit.”
As she said that, Cao Qian brought up the fruits she bought on the way back.
I picked up an apple casually and was about to bite it.
"Oh, this is bad, it's true!" Cao Qian looked at the big yellow spot on the apple, and she immediately became angry and threw the apple in her hand into the trash can. "Today's profiteers are really abominable.
He just said he would pick them for us, and seeing how honest he looked, I believed him, but he actually picked rotten fruits for us! I thought he was pitiful, so I gave him money to stop looking for it! It’s true! Hey
,Sister, what are you doing..."
Halfway through Cao Qian's words, she was surprised to see Cao Hong go to the trash can and pick out the apple again.
"Sister, what are you doing? Are you dirty?" Cao Qian, as a rich second generation who has been well-dressed and well-fed since she was a child, has never seen this scene before.
"Look, this apple is just a little bit bad here. If you remove this part, it's still edible." As he said that, Cao Hong skillfully picked up the fruit knife, cut out the bad parts of the apple, and then brought it over.
, took a big bite.
"Sister, you..."
Cao Qian was a little speechless. For a rich second generation like her, let alone rotten apples, even good apples would not be picked out and eaten if they were thrown into the trash can.
However, seeing Cao Hong's skillful technique and biting into the apple without caring at all, Cao Qian suddenly felt an indescribable sadness in her heart.
Could it be that the days my sister lived in the past were all hard days?
Otherwise, why is she so skillful at peeling fruits to remove the bad parts?
"Sister, you have gone home now, and I will definitely let you live a good life in the future." Cao Qian suddenly hugged Cao Hong, "In the future, as long as I can make you happy, I will do everything I can.
!”
Cao Qian may not have thought of how many sacrifices she had made for these words?
The two chatted for a while, and then Cao Qian went back to her room.
Cao Hong is the only one left in the room here.
Cao Hong sat blankly for a while, picked up the fruits on the table, carefully picked out all the rotten fruits, and then used a fruit knife to carefully peel off all the rotten fruits and the rotten areas.
, cut into pieces and placed on a plate.
She didn't know why, but she felt that when she did these things, she always felt warm and secure in her heart.
It feels like this world is full of beauty and sunshine.
This feeling is as if there is a person in my heart.
Xiong Yao?
Cao Hong is not sure.
Because, it's just a shadow.
That shadow accompanied her to eat Haagen-Dazs by the lake.
The shadow was sitting opposite her, and she gently wiped away the rice grains from the corner of the shadow's mouth.
She cut the fruit, it seemed, just for the shadow.
It must be Xiong Yao.
Cao Hong thought to himself, yes, Xiong Yao accompanied him to eat ice cream by the lake. Just now in the bar, he also saw the corners of his mouth covered with strawberry jam, and the woman helped him wipe it.
Who else could it be besides him?
But why do I still think of him? Why do I think of him unconsciously?
"Dingling bell..."
At this moment, the mobile phone on the table suddenly rang.
Seeing the mobile phone number, Cao Hong couldn't help but feel a little nervous, but she didn't answer it immediately.
She was hesitating.
"Dingling bell..."
The phone continues to ring.
Finally, Cao Hong picked up the phone and asked, "Why are you calling me?"
"Honghong, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. You really misunderstood me today. I really have nothing to do with that woman. That woman has been pursuing me. I thought she was pitiful, so I went to the bar with her.
That's all, I'm really not that kind of person. If you don't believe me, just ask her..." The call was from Xiong Yao.
While talking, Xiong Yao gave his phone to the person next to him.
"I'm sorry, Sister Hong. I am the bitch who went to the bar with Mr. Xiong today. It was I who seduced Mr. Xiong. I am shameless and shameless. I'm sorry, Sister Hong. This matter really has nothing to do with Mr. Xiong.
Yes, please believe Mr. Xiong. When I was with him, he kept telling me that it was impossible for him and me to be together. He kept telling me that he liked you..." Another message came on the phone.
A woman's voice.
Looks like the woman in the bar.
"Ah..." Cao Hong was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.
"Honghong, please speak, Honghong, have you forgive me?" Xiong Yao said eagerly to the phone, "Honghong, don't forget, we were on the edge of the East Lake. How beautiful it was back then.
, have you forgotten me so cruelly? Still remember the way I looked at you eating ice cream, wow, it is really beautiful!"
Sure enough, Xiong Yao suddenly started playing the emotional card again.
"I..." Cao Hong was stunned. For a moment, she didn't know what to say. When Xiong Yao said this, she couldn't help but think of the scene when she and Xiong Yao met for the first time that day.
Really, Cao Hong remembers that scene particularly deeply, and it also touched her heart the most.
That scene made her feel as if she had experienced it in her previous life. It was also the first time since she came to the Cao family that she had the most intense inner agitation.
"Well, Honghong, let's do this. Let's meet again at the East Lake tomorrow, okay? If we meet tomorrow, you tell me clearly in front of me not to harass you again.
I will definitely turn around and leave without saying anything, and will never call you again from now on, do you think that’s okay?” Xiong Yao said.
"Why refuse in person?" Cao Hong said softly.
"Because, because I love you, Honghong, I am not willing to accept it. Honghong, I want you to look into my eyes and reject me, then I will be willing to do so!" Xiong Yao looked sincere, "If you don't
It's impossible to tell us in person in front of me. I will feel uneasy for the rest of my life. Do you agree? Honghong, let's meet by the East Lake tomorrow, just like the first time we met, is it okay?"
"Okay, okay." Cao Hong said softly.
Then, she gently put down her phone.
Looking at the box of cut fruits on the table, I was in a daze.
On the other end of the phone, Xiong Yao also hung up the phone at this time, with a satisfied smile on his face.
"Tan He, I heard that you know a lot of people from all walks of life? Then help me get a copy of that medicine tonight, the kind you know. I will use it tomorrow." Xiong Yao looked at the aj man opposite with a smile.
