i'm not a bad man

Chapter 176 I am divided
After a long, long time, I sat up from the ground, and then said to Lu Xi, who had been standing by the guardrail: "Who did you learn these coquettish tricks from?... When we met, you seemed to have I don’t know these tricks.”

"There are only women in this world who don't want to act like a baby, and there are no women who can't act like a baby..." After a pause, Lu Xi said to me again: "Even Qiao Jiao, she can also act like a baby."

"It's not a shameful thing to act like a spoiled brat, so there's no need to bring Sister Jiao out as a shield!"

I don't know if I got Lu Xi's idea right. Anyway, this time she changed the subject first and said to me: "If there is any news from Chen Linqi, I will call you."

"it is good."

"But you blocked all my contact information."

I looked at Luxi and didn't know how to deal with it for a moment...

"If you don't want to add me back, I'll ask Sister Minhong to contact you."

With a strong sense of guilt, I asked, "I...do you really not mind at all if I treat you this way?"

"Of course I will mind, but you can't let these concerns go to your head." At this point, Lu Xi fell into silence. After a moment, she spoke again: "If Zuo Xiaowei's matter cannot be properly resolved, If you do, you won't be able to live peacefully in a small town. If you have others who can help, I don't want to meddle in your own business... But do you have any?"

"No, in this circle, I only know you and Sister Minhong."

"Well, it's getting late, go back and rest early."

"Okay, you also rest early."

……

Lu Xi and I went down to the office building together. It was only at this time that this street and this office building seemed a little quiet in the dead of night. There were no more people coming and going on the street, and the office building was no longer brightly lit. There was only one room. The 24-hour convenience store still exudes a touch of human fireworks.

Lu Xi's car was parked on the side of the road. It was a red SUV. She was driving a sports car in Qingdao, so I suddenly realized that I seemed to have fulfilled my promise to come to BJ, whether it was for Chang Yuli , or Zuo Xiaowei, in short, I have really come to BJ. At this moment, I am standing on the land of BJ, with my heart half hot and half desolate...

Just now, I really thought about what would happen between me and Lu Xi if I told the truth about Luan Yu regardless of it.

This is difficult to judge. After all, Lu Ming is her brother. If she is guilty of deception, then Luan Yu is the principal culprit, and I am the accomplice who knew it but said nothing. She may take her anger out on me; or she may understand my difficulties, But it's just understanding.

"I'll take you off. Where do you live?"

I came to my senses and hurriedly replied: "The hotel I booked is nearby, so there's no need to send it away."

Lu Xi nodded, said nothing more, and then drove away, while I walked back to the hotel alone.

……

Chang Yuli booked a standard room. He left the bed next to the window to me, while he lay half-lying on the other bed and watched movies on his mobile phone.

Seeing that I was back, he said to me: "Brother Chao, have you not replied to Xiaowei's message yet?"

When he said this, I suddenly remembered that my previous chat with Zuo Xiaowei was suddenly interrupted by Qin Minhong, and she did not reply to her messages afterwards. Chang Yuli would ask me this, it must be Zuo Xiaowei who contacted him .

While sitting on the bed, I took out my phone and looked at it. It was Zuo Xiaowei who bought a pair of rings and asked me if I liked it, but I had completely forgotten about it.

"I like it." Zuo Xiaowei replied instantly: "Why didn't you return to the hotel until now?"

"I went to talk to Sister Minhong about your breach of contract. I just came back from her office."

"I already told you that you don't need to worry about this matter. Why are you still looking for Qin Minhong?"

"If you can solve it yourself, I don't want to worry about it."

I sent this message to Zuo Xiaowei with emotion. She always said that she would leave me alone, but she couldn’t come up with a practical solution. Could it be that I really wanted to watch Chen Linqi sue her? Go to court?Moreover, she has no chance of winning.

……

I lit a cigarette and smoked while staring at the unturned TV in a daze. I didn't wait for Zuo Xiaowei's reply until I finished smoking the cigarette in my hand, so I put my phone on the bedside cabinet. .

In a daze, I remembered the scene where I and Lu Xi laughed endlessly on the rooftop...

"Brother Chao, what are you laughing at?"

I came back to my senses, looked at Chang Yuli who was talking to me, and asked after a while: "Am I smiling?"

"Yes, I'm almost grinning."

Although I suspect Chang Yuli is exaggerating, when I think of that scene, I do have an unforgettable joy in my heart. It is precisely because we laughed endlessly that the originally unbreakable barrier was broken, and I was completely released. I also saw another side of Lu Xi because of this. In fact, she is also a very happy woman!

Of course, I couldn't tell the truth to Chang Yuli, so I made up my mind and said: "On the way back just now, I saw a man wearing only a pair of underwear, and he even wore the underwear backwards. The lucky cat on the underwear looked like She's chewing on his butt, do you think it's funny or not?"

Chang Yuli laughed "haha" for a long time, then suddenly realized and questioned again: "It's such a cold day, can't you just wear a pair of underwear?"

"In such a big city, there are always some birds you haven't seen before... Go to bed early. Brother Jiu and I have made an appointment to meet at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

Chang Yuli responded, and I also left the bed, walked to the bathroom, and started washing...

I don’t know why, but when I looked at myself in the mirror, I felt very happy, so I grinned again, and a strong desire surged in my heart. It would be great if I could continue that feeling of endless laughter. …

Suddenly, I felt sad for no reason. I just felt that my whole person was divided. One was myself outside the mirror, and the other was myself in the mirror. They corresponded to Zuo Xiaowei and Lu Xi respectively, but I couldn't tell which one was real and which one was fake. .

……

The next day, Chang Yuli and I got up early in the morning, and then met Liu Jiujin at a Cantonese-style tea restaurant near the hospital. After three years of not seeing each other, Liu Jiujin's mental state seemed better than before, although he was wearing He wears a more formal suit, but the sparkle in his eyes seems to tell others that he does not belong to the boring workplace, and that the endless nature is what his heart desires...

He is indeed such a person, otherwise Luan Yu and I would never have had the opportunity to meet him on the road and form such a good relationship.

"Xiao Han, it's been a long time since I last saw you. How are you lately?"

In fact, we had briefly talked about the current situation on the phone before, but the mood when we met was far beyond what we could compare to on the phone, so we asked this question again.

We gave each other a firm hug and then sat down on both sides of the dining table. This restaurant was chosen by Liu Jiujin, saying it was the most authentic Cantonese tea restaurant in BJ, and he insisted on inviting me and Chang Yuli to come. Have Cantonese-style morning tea here.
