I looked at the text message and was thinking about how to reply. In the past, such a text message was never easy to reply, but after going through that night last night, I suddenly became awkward with Cheng Hua, even if it wasn't a real person. Face-to-face, but just text messages.
When I was thinking about it with my mobile phone, Jia Yaoyang sent out an invitation, "Du Mo, if you have something to do, do it first, but do you have time tonight? Let's have a cup of coffee together. It would be best to call Cheng Hua, It’s rare to meet here, so it’s a class reunion.”
I hesitated and didn't know whether I should refuse, but I already had a conflict in my heart. I don't know whether Cheng Hua has such a friendship with him, or whether he will go, but Jia Yaoyang's current state of the whole person, I can't believe it at all, he just wanted a reunion among classmates. Moreover, I also feel that if Quan Ying hadn't told him that Cheng Hua and I were still in touch, he probably wouldn't have brought up such a proposal with Ben. miss emotion.
But I have never been a person who is too good at rejecting. When faced with other people's kindness, I always don't know how to shirk it. As the saying goes, how can I be ashamed not to accept others' face? So, I had no choice but to nod and said, "Okay, I don't know when Cheng Hua will be. I can only ask his manager." Jia Yaoyang seemed to be very satisfied with the result, so he fought me and Quan Ying again. Say hello and go entertain others.
I thought about it, and it happened that I wanted to return Cheng Hua's text message, so I sent him a text message directly saying, "I'm already up, I'm attending an event, I saw Jia Yaoyang, he wants to invite you to drink coffee at night, do you have time?"
Cheng Hua's text message didn't come back for a long time, so I was bored and ate, and my free mind finally started to think deeply about what happened last night.
Why did Cheng Hua kiss me? He seemed to have said before that he asked me to give him a chance, why did he say that? And what has he done for me all this time
I never want to think too much about the reasons for Cheng Hua's actions, because I'm always afraid that I'll find out some sincerity from them, and I don't know if I can resist such a temptation.
But what about now? Can I pat my chest and guarantee that I don't have any delusions about Cheng Hua? I treated Cheng Hua with a detached and indifferent attitude, and repeatedly reminded myself of Cheng Hua's evil behavior when she was a child. Wasn't it because I was afraid that I would not be able to control it? But in the end, who am I trying to deceive? To lie to Cheng Hua, or to lie to myself
I took a deep breath, and then decided that I should have a good talk with Cheng Hua. Some issues cannot be avoided blindly. We are no longer suitable for flirting, winning or losing, and laughing it off.
Just when this decision was made, Cheng Hua's call came.
"Momo, I just had an interview here, so it's inconvenient to text you back. When did you get up? Are you feeling well? Why didn't you come to my event when you got up? Where are you? How did you hook up with that guy Jia Yaoyang again?" Cheng Hua asked a series of questions, which made me very at a loss.
"Uh, which question should I answer first?"
"The last one." Cheng Hua said firmly.
"Jia Yaoyang is the representative of the brand at the brand conference I'm attending now." I largely ignored Cheng Hua's use of such an unfriendly word as hookup, and explained concisely.
Cheng Hua on the other side of the phone was very dissatisfied with my answer, "Momo, because of Jia Yaoyang, you didn't even attend my event? It's been a whole morning, even if you are in a hurry, you can catch a few to my event." Let's hang around here? Don't tell me, you've always been with Jia Yaoyang."
Cheng Hua's question made me a little ashamed. As a diligent reporter, to participate in such an event, I really should be non-stop turning around between the press conferences of various brands. But, first of all, I am not diligent, and secondly, with Quanying by my side, I have become dependent from the bottom of my heart. I don't bother to think about which activities to participate in, just follow her, I didn't expect Quanying to spend the whole morning at the press conference without moving, and my mind was in a mess, and I couldn't remember which activities I had to catch up on this day on the schedule.
"I'm...a little tired..." I explained carefully like a primary school student who was caught by the teacher and didn't finish his homework.
"Is it uncomfortable? Headache? Or is the foot still hurting?" Cheng Hua asked, with sincere concern in his slightly magnetic voice.
"Everything is fine, um, Cheng Hua, are you coming tonight? I'll see Jia Yaoyang later so I can tell him." Before Cheng Hua and I talked about the first night, I couldn't hear him like that. With a gentle and tense tone, he had no choice but to change the topic.
"Do we know him that well? We are not in the same class in high school. What's the old story? I'll take you to a good place to play at night. Push him away."
"Then...how embarrassing, you...if something happens, then I'll have to deal with it anyway." I wondered, I really couldn't think of a good reason to reject Jia Yaoyang.
"Momo, don't tell me that you still have a heart for Jia Yaoyang now. How is he good? But does he just look good? Momo, you can take care of yourself. I haven't seen each other for many years. He's just casual. When I make an appointment with you, do you feel itchy in your heart? Do you know what kind of heart he feels?"
What Cheng Hua said made me laugh secretly. He would say that he has a good appearance when he returns home. I really want to ask him, but it is true. Don’t you just have a good appearance and rely on this face to deceive the ignorant people? What do you care about me? However, I didn't ask this question on the phone, but jokingly said: "Don't say it, Jia Yaoyang really has no good intentions, but ah, it's not to me, but to you."
"Damn!" Cheng Hua became anxious, and yelled on the other end of the phone, "Du Mo, let me tell you, you put off what happened tonight, you are not allowed to go!"
"Keep down, Huazi, what's the matter with you? There are reporters outside." Cheng Hua's voice fell, and I heard Sister Wei's warning in a low voice. Sure enough, Cheng Hua lowered the tone by an octave, "Momo, anyway, let's not talk to Jia Yaoyang, he's very mean-spirited, so it's better not to talk to him."
I heard that Cheng Hua was anxious, and for some reason, I felt extremely happy in my heart, and when I was in a good mood, I started talking more, "Jia Yaoyang provoked you, you said that when you were in middle school, you were still the top two competing for hegemony, It’s just that they are jealous of each other. Now you do yours and he does his. It doesn’t constitute a competition at all. You rely on your face to make money, and others rely on their relationships. Well water doesn’t interfere with river water. Why are you so critical of others? They're all old classmates, so if you meet them here, you can be regarded as an old acquaintance in a foreign land. What's the matter with meeting and chatting? What are you yelling like someone is pulling your hair out? Look, sister Wei is scolding you, right?" I proudly scolded Cheng Hua, feeling extremely cheerful in my heart.
Cheng Hua's voice became limp all of a sudden, "Momo, is that why you want to catch up with Jia Yaoyang?"
Once Cheng Hua's long-term Ai Ai's voice came out, I couldn't pretend to be righteous anymore, so I told the truth, "The ghost wants to catch up with him, do I know him very well? In the end, it's not because of you, but because he wants to see you." You, their company has a new brand. They said they were interested in finding you as a spokesperson, but they said that your agency did not approve of it. But he probably can find you directly, but he found me, so I can say What? You can't just refute the other's face, it's all classmates who don't say it, anyway, now Jia Yaoyang is a person of some social status, and I can't say no when he invites me, it seems so ignorant."
Cheng Hua listened, and laughed happily on the phone, and then said to me: "Okay, then don't worry about it, I'll discuss with Wei Jie how to deal with this problem, I know you said that brand, Wei Jie thinks The first brand image is not in line with my positioning, and the second price is not suitable either. If they are sincere, I will say hello to Wei Jie and give a classmate the price, so why let us Momo make trouble from the middle, right?"
"Yeah." I quickly agreed, "Then I don't care about it, anyway, Jia Yaoyang came to me for this matter, you guys have settled the matter, I have no use value, I guess he may not be willing to eat with me. .”
I heard Cheng Hua just smacking her teeth on the phone, but I didn't have time to say anything else. Quanying called me on one side, and I heard Cheng Hua's assistant calling him on the other side, so we hung up the phone in a hurry.
After lunch at noon, I went to a few more activities with Quanying, and then went back to the hotel to distribute manuscripts to the newspaper. After I sent back all the manuscripts for the day at seven o'clock, Quanying called, "Momo, Yaoyang here has a special dinner party today, and I have an appointment with you for another day, so let me apologize to you."
This is what I expected, I guess Wei Jie must have already connected with Jia Yaoyang in the afternoon, so what's the point of looking for me again, so the other day is just a far-fetched courtesy.
Quan Ying asked me, "Momo, do you have any other arrangements? I have invited friends to Lan Kwai Fong. They are all friends from the circle, and some of you also go out for entertainment. Let's go together?"
In fact, it’s a good thing to get to know more fellow journalists, especially Yuji, because resources are shared, and there are many people and news that I can do in the future. I can’t just report on Cheng Hua in my life. However, today I had something on my mind, and I always thought that I should quickly and clearly explain the matter between Cheng Hua and Cheng Hua, so I didn't have any other thoughts about work, so I had to decline Quan Ying's kindness.
Then, I started to lie down on the sofa and meditate on how to discuss the meaning of yesterday's kiss with Cheng Hua without embarrassment.
Cheng Hua knocked on the door before I could figure out what to say at the beginning.
This was the first time we met after last night, so the moment I opened the door, when I saw him, I blushed very disappointedly.
Blushing is really helpless. I can control my expression, tone of voice, and body movements, but I just can't control this unnatural flow of blood. So after realizing my blushing, I immediately turned my back and walked into the room, chanting in disguise, "Cheng Hua, what are you drinking? Coffee? Tea? Juice? Soda? Tonic?" Then I acted like a busy host. , strolling around the house.
Cheng Hua didn't answer me, but walked up to me, gently embraced me from behind, wiped my ear with her lips and said, "I want to drink red wine..."
