i'm not a bad man

Chapter 222 Don't belittle yourself
I still can't imagine what it will be like when Luan Yu, Lu Xi and I get along face to face. I can't even imagine Lu Xi's mood at the moment. Maybe it's because Luan Yu insists on coming. , she became curious about the past between me and Luan Yu. Luan Yu must have come here to restore the relationship with Lu Ming. As Luan Yu’s ex-boyfriend, I seemed a bit indifferent in comparison. It's desolate, because it was Luan Yu who abandoned me in the first place, but when she faced Lu Ming, she was so unable to let go that she even gave up her self-respect.

Although there is no point in worrying about these things, Lu Xi's question still made me have strong doubts. Did she really love me? And the experience between us is really qualified to be compared by Lu Xi. Unforgettable?

This woman Luan Yu is really...

There was an indescribable feeling of powerlessness in my heart, and I lost my appetite because of it. I put aside the tofu ball soup I was holding in my hand, and then lit a cigarette to resolve the complicated emotions.

When I was about to finish smoking a cigarette, I finally asked Lu Xi beside me: "Where is she?"

Lu Xi raised his hand to look at his watch and replied: "She came from Qingdao overnight and should be arriving in the small town soon."

I was surprised again. Surprised, I raised my head and closed my eyes. After taking a long breath, I said: "We can't say we have an unforgettable relationship. She really loves your brother..."

"I don't think so. She is more like a flesh-and-blood woman in front of you... But when she is with my brother, she becomes too perfect. She helps my brother manage his career in order and integrates my parents' affairs." She also takes good care of her emotions, and is even more considerate to me. She never seems to have a temper. Without a temper, she has no complaints. But is there really such a perfect woman in this world? So perfect that she seems to have a formula that can solve all problems. .”

It's hard to believe that Lu Xi would compare Luan Yu to a perfect woman. How could she be perfect?When she is with me, she will dance because she is happy, and she will also get so angry that she throws things and bursts into tears because of conflicts...

Based on this understanding, I finally shook my head and replied: "She is not perfect, not perfect at all. Maybe she wants to be close to your brother too much, so she turned herself into what you said."

"Is this closeness due to pure love or due to some needs?"

"I'm not her, I don't know."

Lu Xi fell into silence, and I followed her in silence. We all forgot that there were two servings of tofu ball soup. I felt that this was a wasted morning. We should not talk about Luan Yu, even if all the truth All have surfaced, but she is still an insurmountable obstacle between me and Lu Xi.

……

Lu Xi's phone rang during this period of silence. She first took the phone out of her bag and looked at it, and then said to me, "It's Luan Yu calling. She should be here."

"Then I'll take you back."

Lu Xi nodded and then answered Luan Yu's call. She did not avoid me. Listening to their conversation, Luan Yu had indeed arrived in the small town and was currently staying at the hotel where Lu Xi was staying.

……

Twenty minutes later, I sent Lu Xi back to the hotel where she was staying. From a distance, I saw Luan Yu standing at the door of the hotel, looking sad.

I parked the car, but Lu Xi didn't get out of the car immediately. She asked me, "Do you want to come with me?"

"I still won't see her anymore."

"You seem to be very unwilling to face your past." "I don't know what to say to her, and I don't want her to talk too much to me."

"I think what you care more about is her attitude towards my brother, because she abandoned you at the beginning, but in order to restore her relationship with my brother, she traveled thousands of miles to come here... You can't accept this comparison. .”

"I can accept that your brother is better than me. That is an indisputable fact... As a normal woman, Luan Yu has the right to pursue better things, so I always treat her with blessings and understanding. This relationship with your brother... The only pity is that she shouldn't have deceived your brother..." After a pause, I lowered my voice again and said, "Actually, I also have a question to ask you, your brother. Did you break up with her because she wasn't as pure as your brother wanted, or because you couldn't accept her deception?"

Lu Xi didn't seem to have a clear answer. After thinking for a while, she replied: "It should be the latter... If it is the former, there will be no possibility of them getting back together."

I nodded in agreement; at this time, Lu Xi said to me again: "Compared to my brother, you don't need to belittle yourself, it just happens that his excellence is what Luan Yu needs... But this does not mean that every woman Everyone needs this kind of excellence. At least, I don’t like his machismo and his seemingly critical beliefs, which will make him look very boring.”

After saying that, Lu Xi picked up the thermos box containing tofu ball soup, opened the car door, and got out of the car.

I kept looking at her back, and it wasn't until Luan Yu hugged her as if grasping a life-saving straw that I shifted my gaze.I opened the other thermos box and realized that Lu Xi had taken the wrong one. She didn't eat coriander, but she took the tofu ball soup that was full of coriander.

In the end, I didn't switch back with her. After I screwed the lid on, I drove away from the hotel.

……

I suddenly became busy. First I went to the logistics park and retrieved the coffee machine sent by Qiao Jiao. Then I went to the Traffic Management Bureau with Chang Yuli without stopping. This is the most important thing to me at the moment. I hope the Traffic Management Bureau can Opening up a separate bus line for "Da Nangou Scenic Area" not only facilitates tourists, but also hopes to send a strong signal to the outside world: "Danangou Scenic Area" has not collapsed, it is making a strong comeback.

The top leader of the Traffic Management Bureau is a man in his 40s. Different from other leaders, he does not have a big belly and has plenty of hair, so he looks very energetic. Chang Yuli said that he transferred to the Traffic Management Bureau from the army. Yes, after taking over the position of director, he still continued his living habits in the army, so he would take time out to do some high-intensity exercise every day.

"I heard from Yu Li, do you hope we can open a separate bus line for Danangou Scenic Area?"

"Wang Bureau, I know this is a very difficult thing for the traffic management bureau, but Danangou Scenic Area really needs such a bus line to reduce tourists' travel costs..."

"Reducing travel costs for tourists means increasing our financial burden. As long as the scenic spot can make a profit and pay taxes, we are not afraid of increasing our financial burden. But with Danangou's current state, can it be profitable?...I I don’t know who you represent when you come to talk to me, but regarding this matter, even if Chang Tianming himself stood in front of me, he wouldn’t dare to guarantee that the scenic spot will definitely be profitable.”

After saying that, Wang Ju lit a cigarette for himself, and then looked at me with an untrusting look, as if to say that I was overestimating my abilities.

I replied calmly: "I can't represent Mr. Chang, I just make this suggestion to you on behalf of myself... In the past few years, I have traveled to basically all cities across the country, and I have a very clear idea in my heart." Comparison, so I insist that Danangou is really a very good scenic spot... The biggest reason why it has not been developed is not because the scenery is not good enough, but because it is restricted by the geographical location. Although a separate bus line is opened, it is not possible to develop it. It cannot fundamentally solve the traffic problem, but it can alleviate the disadvantages of traffic to a certain extent... I believe that with this bus line, coupled with our packaging and rectification, Danangou Scenic Area will slowly be welcomed by tourists Accept..." After a short pause, I said in a more sincere tone: "Wang Bureau, you must have been to Danangou. I don't know what you think of Danangou, but I really think this is Nature's best gift to a small town... As a foreigner, I can't bear to see it close down and decline. As a local, how can you bear to let this pearl be lost in the wave of marketization?"

Wang Ju smiled and replied: "Young man, your eloquence is good...but eloquence does not mean ability. I don't believe that anyone can revive the Danangou Scenic Area. Therefore, there is no way that I will risk the increase because of your few words." The risk of financial burden is to open a separate line for you."

"I don't expect to get your support in just one conversation...Wang Ju, let's do this. This weekend, we will hold a bonfire party and a roast lamb feast at Shuanglong Lake. Many cultural and tourism people will come there. Friends, I will work with them to plan the future development of Danangou... I also warmly invite you to participate in this bonfire party. If you can see the hope of the revival of Danangou at this bonfire party, I hope you can The bus lines are allocated to us... If you think we are just a bunch of rabble, I won’t make it difficult for you, I will think of other solutions.”

After a brief thought, Director Wang patted the table and replied: "Okay, I'll go and see your bonfire party. Our county has always been based on tourism. As a department of the county, of course we also have the responsibility to participate." Go to the development and construction of the tourism industry... If you can really come up with a practical revitalization plan, even if you are under the pressure of losses, I will grant you this line; if you are just an eloquent person, If you are a capable person, then please don’t mention this matter to me again.”
