Chapter eight hundred and thirty seventh meal together
"You must have heard about me, right?" Ye Lanqiu pretended not to care and smiled, she sniffed, "What, there were so many people taking pictures just now, aren't you afraid of being implicated by me?"
He Xie smiled and said, "Is your turmoil a big deal?"
Ye Lanqiu frowned: "You said it easily. It doesn't hurt to stand and talk. Now people all over the country are scolding me. I don't even know what I did wrong."
"The collective social nature of human beings has destined that the vast majority of people will be kidnapped by some so-called universal values and follow the crowd and follow what others say." He Xie said with a smile, "They scold you not because you did something wrong, but because
Someone has set up a platform where you can scold you for free without having to pay any price. It’s just like a merchant engaging in promotional activities, it’s just business.”
Ye Lanqiu asked: "Do you think it's right for me not to give up my seat?"
"Why not?" He Xie said with a smile, "It's not like you didn't pay for the ticket when you took the bus. You are free to give up your seat or not."
"But I said something inappropriate after all..." Ye Lanqiu looked at He Xie expectantly. What she needs most now is the understanding and recognition of others, which is very important to her.
"If it was right not to give up your seat, then what was the right thing to say at that time?" He Xie said.
"Some people say that I am a mistress..." Ye Lanqiu clenched her fists unconsciously. She didn't even understand why she was so nervous, for fear that He Xie would say something she didn't want to hear.
He Xie glanced at her and said with a smile: "This is just like someone calling you a bastard. Could it be that you really have become a bastard?"
"You are such a beautiful woman. If you are really what they think, why do you still take the bus to and from get off work every day?" He Xie sighed, "So, they just want to scold you. As for you, No one thinks about it, no one cares about it."
Ye Lanqiu stared at He Xie blankly, his nose suddenly sore, and he wanted to throw himself into his arms and cry.
Over the past few days, she felt like the sky had suddenly fallen. The whole world was full of malice toward her. No one understood her, and no one believed her, without exception.
Although her boss Shen Liushu readily lent her one million, he hinted at the price she would have to pay for borrowing the one million by saying, "You have never been on a business trip with me."
Yang Shoucheng once brought her some comfort and warmth, but today in the alley, he still avoided her like a snake and a scorpion, abandoning her on the cusp of the storm, leaving her to face all harm alone.
The man in front of her not only saved her life, but also gave her desperate and frozen heart some signs of melting.
"You..." Ye Lanqiu only said one word, but found that his voice was hoarse and choked, so he hurriedly cleared his throat to cover up, and continued: "How should I call you?"
"He Xie." He Xie said with a smile. "Why bother? He is the evil of good and evil."
Ye Lanqiu tilted his head, pretending to be relaxed and joking: "Can I say that people live up to their names?"
"You think I'm evil?" He Xie asked.
"It's not very formal anyway." She chuckled, "But I don't like things that are too formal."
"Are you confessing to me?" He Xie asked.
"You think too much!" Ye Lanqiu rolled his eyes deliberately, as if he couldn't stand you.
He Xie took Ye Lanqiu to a Western restaurant on the top floor of his hotel, ordered two set meals and a bottle of wine.
There were not many people in the restaurant, and some people recognized Ye Lanqiu, but at most they just took a second look. No one came to watch, no one took pictures, or pointed, which made Ye Lanqiu somewhat relieved.
"By the way, I don't know yet, what do you do?" Ye Lanqiu asked.
He Xie looked around, then waved to Ye Lanqiu, motioning for her to come over.
"Why? So mysterious?" Ye Lanqiu felt a little funny, and felt a little complacent in her heart. Her appearance made her see a lot of boys' methods to please girls since she was a child.
It's just that most of the time she won't give the other party such a chance.
She still came over.
"Don't tell anyone," He Xie said into her ear, "Actually, I am a god."
"..."
Ye Lanqiu looked at He Xie speechlessly. She swore that this was the most boring and embarrassing joke she had ever heard. But seeing He Xie's serious face, she couldn't help but laugh.
So sometimes whether a girl smiles or not doesn't depend on whether you're funny or not, but whether she likes it or not.
If she doesn't like it, no matter how funny you tell her, she will walk away and laugh again later; if she likes it, you just look at her and she will laugh happily.
"You said you are a god, can you pluck the sun off?" Ye Lanqiu asked with a smile.
He Xie was startled, then suddenly sighed and said, "Actually, I'm very suspicious now that I've ruined the sun."
Ye Lanqiu smiled and shook his head: "It would be great if you were really a god. In that case, I would..." She suddenly stopped because the waiter started to serve the wine.
After the waiter left, Ye Lanqiu picked up the cup and said seriously to He Xie: "Thank you formally for saving my life today. Thank you very much. By the way, you were very manly at that time."
She smiled slightly playfully and motioned for He Xie to toast.
Boom.
The two wine glasses clinked together, the red wine swaying under the light, and the two drank the confusion in one gulp.
The meal was relaxing and pleasant. He Xie didn't mention anything in particular or express anything. The two of them just chatted about life, their experiences, and their feelings.
They are all plain and delicate topics.
After finishing the meal, it was not yet two o'clock in the afternoon. When the two of them walked out of the door, Ye Lanqiu was obviously in a trance and didn't know what he was thinking.
"He Xie," she seemed to muster up the courage, "you...can you accompany me to a place?"
"Where to go?" He Xie asked.
She thought about it, laughed at herself, and said, "It can be regarded as a shelter."
He Xie knew what she was talking about as soon as his thoughts changed.
"After today, if you feel it is still necessary, I will accompany you." He Xie said with a smile.
Ye Lanqiu was a little surprised and confused. She felt that He Xie seemed to have something in his words.
"Do you know something?" she couldn't help but ask.
"Have you forgotten what I said about my identity?" He Xie smiled and leaned into her ear, "I'm not kidding."
He took two steps back, waved to Ye Lanqiu, who was still in a daze, and said with a smile: "Go back and have a good rest for a day, you look very bad. If you wake up tomorrow and feel that your life has changed, remember to come to me.
"
Ye Lanqiu looked at He Xie's leaving figure and was stunned for a long time before turning around and leaving.
The seat-giving incident continues to ferment. Local media channels in Yanjing continue to launch special columns and frequently lead topics on the Internet. Among them, the reporter named Chen Ruoxi is the most active.
When it was almost eight o'clock, many people continued to refresh the "Keyboard Man" account page on Weibo, waiting for his so-called revelations.
And He Xie did not disappoint these melon-eating people. When the time jumped from 7:59 to 8:00, he updated his Weibo on time.
