Accidental Love

Chapter 3

Views:

A gust of cold wind blows over, reminding the people standing at the door to leave.

Yue Xingzhou looked at the curtain-like rain, and when he was hesitating whether to rush into the rain, Qin Lezhi took out the umbrella from his bag, opened it and raised it above his head.

After looking at each other, Qin Lezhi smiled, took his arm, and the two walked to the parking place together.

The two walked for several minutes at a distance of about ten meters. When standing in front of the car, Yue Xingzhou whispered: "Then... I'm going home."

Qin Lezhi held his arm and did not let go, lowered his head and leaned against his chest, and said coquettishly: "You can stay with me for a while, I'm afraid that at dawn, I will find that all this is a dream."

Yue Xingzhou licked the corner of his lips, not knowing where to put his eyes.

After a while, he still raised his arms and hugged Qin Lezhi's back.

The two of them looked extremely crowded under a lady's umbrella, and the night rain was pattering down on Qin Lezhi's neck, making her shiver from the cold, but she still didn't let go of her hand.

"Cold?"

Yue Xingzhou asked.

Qin Lezhi hugged Yue Xingzhou even tighter, "It won't be cold with you here."

"Yeah." Yue Xingzhou said, "I'm really going back, I'm going to work tomorrow morning."

Hearing this, Qin Lezhi let go of Yue Xingzhou, and when he looked up at him, there was misty water vapor in his eyes, and his whole body was so weak that it seemed that the rain could melt her if it was heavier.

She hooked Yue Xingzhou's little finger with her little finger and shook it gently, "Xingzhou, I hope you will think about what I said today. I can give you what she can give you, and I can give you what she can't give you." .”

After finishing speaking, she let go of her hand and said in a low voice, "My little uncle is still waiting for me, so I'll go first."

Yue Xingzhou watched Qin Lezhi get into a Rolls-Royce, his eyes flickered under the street lights above his head, and his Adam's apple moved slightly.

He turned and walked slowly towards his car.

In the night, his vision became blurred. He took out the car keys, pressed the unlock button, and reached out to pull the car door, but he felt something hard.

When he saw what it was, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, his blood flowed backwards, his consciousness went blank for an instant, and his nerves were about to explode.

It was three forty-five in the morning.

The rain should have stopped, and the whistle on the road was clear and piercing.

Zheng Shuyi lay flat on the bed, staring at the ceiling with his eyes open, his mind was buzzing and chaotic, but his heart was empty, as if he had been emptied of oxygen.

After she came back, she was not idle, went to the utility room and took out a cardboard box, and put all the things Yue Xingzhou gave her these days into it.

Some used ones could not be returned, so she made a list and put them in the box, intending to cash them all to him.

Including Song Lelan's concert tickets, which were originally intended to be seen by the two of them together, but now they can only return the other ticket money to him.

But at this moment, she just needs to wait quietly for Yue Xingzhou to come to her.

Not long after, the doorbell rang.

From Zheng Shuyi's understanding of him, he must be covered in rain, standing pitifully outside the door, waiting to explain to her and beg her to forgive.

She even predicted the lines, and said, "Listen to me to explain", and then he would pull the corner of her clothes with red eyes, just like he did when he confessed to her.

Thinking of this, Zheng Shuyi laughed to himself.

It felt like it was all a dream.

She didn't have much strength when she got up, but she still managed to show up in front of Yue Xingzhou.

There was only one light on in the corridor, it was dim, but it was enough to illuminate Yue Xingzhou's face clearly.

He was holding a blue lace umbrella in his hand, and his hair was limp, but clean, with no water stains on his body.

It was different from Zheng Shuyi's imagination.

He arched his shoulders, lowered his head, raised his eyes and glanced at Zheng Shuyi, then lowered his eyes immediately.

"Calligraphy..."

Zheng Shuyi raised her chin, and when she was about to say the rehearsed unforgiveness, she heard the other side say: "Let's break up."

Zheng Shuyi: "...?"

"I love you very much, and I really want to be with you forever, but this kind of life is too tiring, and I can never see where the nodes are. It is a luxury for me to buy a small house in this city. I..."

"Wait." Zheng Shuyi came back to his senses and interrupted him quickly, "What do you mean?"

"Shuyi." He frowned, gritted his teeth, and said what was in his heart, "We all have to be realistic! Her family is unusual. My uncle drives a Rolls-Royce, and even the license plate number is consecutive. There is only one car in Jiangcheng! If you have money and power, I also want Pingbu Qingyun to be in the state after twenty years, I... I think we are still suitable to be friends."

Zheng Shuyi almost lost his breath, and was only a fingernail away from dying on the spot.

So in the end, before she even spoke, she was preemptively dumped

"Yue Xingzhou." Zheng Shuyi held his breath, clutching the door frame tightly, and said word by word, "Have you brought my mobile phone?"

"Bring, bring it up."

Yue Xingzhou still didn't dare to meet her eyes, glanced at her hurriedly, then lowered his head and took out his phone.

Zheng Shuyi snatched her mobile phone, took a deep breath, and kicked out the cardboard box and Yue Xingzhou in one go.

"Who the hell wants to be your friend! To be your ancestor!"

The sound of the door slamming resounded throughout the corridor, and Zheng Shuyi could still feel the vibration of the door panel even when she leaned on it, and she slid down her chest again and again to ensure that she would not carry it all in one go.

After a while of silence, footsteps finally sounded outside the door.

Zheng Shuyi couldn't hold back the last trace of expectation, hoping that Yue Xingzhou could still be a person.

So she turned around and looked through the cat's eyes, only to see Yue Xingzhou took two steps with the cardboard box in his arms, then suddenly squatted down, put the cardboard box on the ground, and buried his head in searching for something inside.

The box was filled with things sent by Yue Xingzhou, including ceramics, decorations, books, and many scattered gadgets.

After a while, he took out some small things and put them in his coat bag, but left the box and went into the elevator.

No way

Zheng Shuyi was stunned for a moment, and blinked hard.

If she read correctly, what Yue Xingzhou took away was the only valuable gold brooch in that box? !

At this moment, anger flooded the sky, drowning out all hypocritical emotions, tearing up the filter of the past few years, tearing up the worst side of Yue Xingzhou's quality and spreading it bloody in front of Zheng Shuyi, not allowing her to have any more Nostalgia, even the most impressive memories are wiped out in an instant and turned into flying debris that ignites anger.

Zheng Shuyi threw herself on the bed, beat the pillow over and over again, but still couldn't erase those images in her mind.

Every time he closes his eyes, he thinks of Yue Xingzhou's look of being wronged when he is with her, which makes Zheng Shuyi keep his eyes open until dawn.

But she only took half a day off, and in the afternoon she still dressed up and went to the company.

A scumbag can be lost, but performance cannot be lost.

"Mingyu Bank has called, and the character interview will be postponed to next Thursday at three o'clock in the afternoon." Editor-in-Chief Tang Yi called her into the office without looking up at the computer, "But it's best to change the topic, you Submit a new outline to me as soon as possible."

"Oh."

Hearing Zheng Shuyi's lifeless voice, Tang Yi raised his eyebrows, "This is a common thing. You have a smooth journey because you are beautiful. Do you know how many reporters make ten calls, five One is always in a meeting, three are always perfunctory, and two are never convenient for interviews. If you get angry now, what will you do in the future?"

"I'm not angry. Speaking of it, I have to thank Shi Yan." Zheng Shuyi said in a nonchalant tone, "Otherwise, how would I find out that my boyfriend, oh no, did my ex-boyfriend cheat?"

"What? Changed to an ex-boyfriend?"

Tang Yi seemed to be shocked, but when he said the last word, his consonance rose and his eyebrows danced, he almost wrote the words "It's so funny" on his face.

Zheng Shuyi: "..."

"Ouch." Tang Yi covered his mouth and said in order not to let himself go too far, "Should I not be so happy?"

Zheng Shuyi didn't have the energy to put on any expression, so he just said lightly: "It's okay, it's just that the crow's feet are smiling."

Tang Yi changed his face instantly, turned his head to look at the computer coldly, raised his middle finger and pressed the corners of his eyes, "I told you a long time ago, your boyfriend is not good, what kind of qualifications do you have?"

"Then what kind of boyfriend do I want?" Zheng Shuyi's mind reappeared the picture of last night, and he said to himself, "One with a Rolls-Royce."

"Can't you?" Tang Yi stood up and stuffed a document into her arms, "You have knowledge, good looks, a decent job, and a bright future in the future, why don't you deserve it?"

This "unlimited future" is actually Tang Yi's plan for Zheng Shuyi a long time ago.

She was the one who recruited Zheng Shuyi from the newspaper in the first place, just to create a human-shaped signboard exclusively for "Financial Weekly".

Zheng Shuyi graduated from one of the top universities of finance and economics in China with a major in journalism. She has excellent professional skills, and the little girl can also suffer from the hardships of Times journalists.

Most importantly, Tang Yi felt that she possessed extraordinary beauty.

Even in serious industries, beauty is a particularly eye-catching medium.

If it is played together with the "education" and "ability" cards, it will be Wang Zha.

So she felt that when Zheng Shuyi published a few articles that received a lot of attention, "Financial Weekly" would help her, and the two would complement each other, making her a famous reporter in the circle, and walking in the financial circle in the future would be like entering a land without people. It will bring greater benefits to the magazine.

"Oh." Zheng Shuyi was too lazy to discuss this issue with Tang Yi, and looked down at the thing in his hand, "What is this?"

"There is a financial summit in the afternoon. If you can't die, follow the clues."

Tang Yi waved at her, indicating that she could go, "There is also an interview with Mingyu Bank next week, so prepare well."

This is the benefit of having an unkind boss. Zheng Shuyi didn't even have time to be hypocritical, so she went to the bathroom to touch up her makeup before leaving the company in a hurry.

The summit was held in the new financial center of Jiangcheng. It is located on the remote Fourth Ring Road. It was only completed last year. The surrounding area is still in the development stage. There are basically no pedestrians on the road except for cars.

But Zheng Shuyi is no stranger to this place, one is because she often goes here for interviews, and the other is because Yue Xingzhou works here.

In the past, if she had time, she would come here to wait for Yue Xingzhou to get off work, and then the two of them would have dinner and watch a movie together, and then go to one of her favorite dessert shops to buy small cakes.

So now that Zheng Shuyi had listened to the entire summit, she subconsciously turned into that dessert shop.

When she came back to her senses, the clerk was already greeting her warmly.

Zheng Shuyi took out the egg tarts she usually bought from the cabinet. The two red grapes on the yellow cheese looked very much like Yue Xingzhou's hateful face.

The clerk stood aside, watching Zheng Shuyi show an expression of murdering his father and enemy to an egg tart.

"Miss, that..." the clerk said cautiously, "It's afternoon, buy one egg tart and get one free."

As soon as the words were finished, there was a welcome sound at the door, and the clerk hurried to greet the new customers.

And Zheng Shuyi was still staring at the egg tart until a familiar voice sounded behind him.

She turned her head abruptly, meeting Yue Xingzhou's eyes unexpectedly.

Yue Xingzhou was stunned for a moment, standing at the door, wondering whether he should go any further.

After a while, he turned his face away, pulled the woman beside him and said, "Come buy it tomorrow."

Only then did Zheng Shuyi notice that the woman he was leading was the one he saw in the hospital last night.

Don't even look like it

You came to break up with her last night, and today they came out hand in hand to show off

"No." Although Qin Lezhi saw Zheng Shuyi, she didn't plan to leave, "I'm used to eating here, and I don't feel comfortable if I don't eat for a day."

She walked to Zheng Shuyi's side, took out a whole box of egg tarts sideways, and gave Zheng Shuyi a sideways glance as she withdrew her hand.

That look clearly indicated that she knew who Zheng Shuyi was from Yue Xingzhou, but she didn't have the slightest sense of being a third party, and even revealed a sense of complacency, like a person who rushed into a banquet with bare feet and spat in the dishes. Showing off to everyone that she got the whole table.

Zheng Shuyi was dazzled by her eyes, making her temples ache suddenly.

OK, I will bear it.

She threw away the egg tart and left the dessert shop without looking back.

But when she stepped out of the gate, she suddenly thought of something, so she stopped and turned her head immediately, just in time to meet Qin Lezhi looking at her with the eyes of a winner.

Zheng Shuyi's gaze moved down, and she saw that the shiny golden thing on her scarf was indeed the brooch that Yue Xingzhou took away last night? !

"..."

Although his expression was calm, it seemed that there were tens of thousands of hot coals crushing Zheng Shuyi's chest back and forth, and his anger would burst out anytime and anywhere.

After walking for a few days, Zheng Shuyi finally couldn't bear it and kicked a big tree by the side of the road.

Dashu was terrified at the time, he had never seen such an angry woman.

Zheng Shuyi lowered her head, her chest heaved violently, and she clearly felt her cheeks burning hot from anger.

There were constant sounds of cars on the road, she turned her head slightly, and saw Yue Xingzhou and Qin Lezhi coming out.

Yue Xingzhou held the dessert box in his hand, and Qin Lezhi jumped into his co-pilot with his arm in his arms.

Just released from the zoo and haven't learned to walk upright yet

Zheng Shuyi stared at that direction, until his teeth were gritted, and then he opened his legs and walked forward.

She didn't know what she was doing either.

Instead of taking a taxi or going to the subway station, I just walked aimlessly on this wide and somewhat lonely road step by step.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, it was getting dark, and Zheng Shuyi stopped at an intersection to hail a taxi.

Just as she was looking into the middle of the road, a car parked on the opposite street caught her attention unexpectedly.

When her eyes gradually focused, the bright Rolls Royce logo seemed to be shining with golden light.

The license plate number was the string she saw at the hospital last night, and it was also the "serial numbered license plate" that Yue Xingzhou called, the only one in Jiangcheng.

A thought quickly flashed through Zheng Shuyi's mind, and what Tang Yi said to her today.

— "You have knowledge, good looks, a decent job, and a bright future in the future. Why don't you deserve it?"

The cold wind blew wantonly on his face, but his thoughts were surging in his mind like heat waves.

Not very rational, not very calm, but in just three seconds, Zheng Shuyi made a decision that upended her future life.

Some people, if you don't let him pay for what he did, he won't think you are free and easy, he will only think you are stupid.

Don't you want to save twenty years of struggle

I thought so too.

Don't you want to lean against the mountains

I thought so too.

Even if you can't make you pay the price, you still have to respectfully call me little aunt when you flatter me in the future.

When thinking of this, Zheng Shuyi was already standing beside the car.

She looked at herself reflected in the car window and brushed her hair.

Although the face in the mirror was a bit haggard, it had a different kind of charm, different from Zheng Shuyi's usual lively and charming, and now there was a sense of pitiful fragility.

She raised her hand and knocked on the window.

There was no movement for a long time.

When Zheng Shuyi almost thought that there was no one in the car for so long, the window finally rolled down slowly.

At first, Zheng Shuyi only saw a pair of gold-rimmed glasses with anti-skid chains.

Afterwards, the entire face was slowly revealed, followed by Zheng Shuyi's curse words secretly in his heart.

Anyone who has seen this face will not forget it in a short time, Zheng Shuyi naturally also remembers that this is the person who offered to send her home at Warner Manor last night.

It's just that she didn't expect that Qin Lezhi's face looking at the clear soup and water, the little uncle would have such a look

There didn't seem to be much accident when the man was knocked on the car window, he just looked over lightly.

Although embarrassing, Zheng Shuyi felt that it was not entirely a bad thing.

At least, didn't he have a little bit of fun last night

So Zheng Shuyi bent down and said softly: "Sir, my phone is out of battery and I can't get a taxi. Can I borrow your phone to make a call?"

Shi Yan didn't even turn his head, but turned his face slightly, and gave Zheng Shuyi a sideways look.

Looking at each other, Zheng Shuyi couldn't see what he meant, so he said, "Or, you can give me a ride if you want."

Shi Yan stared at her for a while.

His eyebrows are long and narrow, and the cold texture of the glasses just suppresses the frivolity in the upturned eyes.

A few seconds later, Shi Yan slowly looked away.

"My car doesn't carry a woman with a boyfriend."

Zheng Shuyi: "...?"

The vehicle just reversed in front of her and sped towards the road.
