When passing by the living room, he glanced at the bag that was thrown on the sofa, walked over, took his cell phone, turned it to silent mode, put it on the coffee table, and then left.
The apartment became quiet again.
Chi Huan turned over and hugged the soft quilt under her body. She opened her eyes, then closed them again, and fell into a deep sleep.
… …
the next morning.
It was raining continuously, and the bedroom with no curtains looked gloomy.
Chi Huan stood up holding her head. She had a headache. She lowered her head and smelled herself. She thought that she had gone to bed without taking a shower. She could smell the rancid smell even though there was no smell.
Get up, go to the bathroom, run the water and take a comfortable bath.
I randomly picked up two pieces of clothing and put them on. I was wiping my hair and looking for my phone. I was thinking about whether to eat by myself or call for takeout and have breakfast delivered.
As soon as she bent down to pick up the mobile phone on the coffee table, the doorbell rang. She had no choice but to hold the towel on her head and go to open the door again.
Standing in front of the door was Mo Xigu. He frowned, as if he was uneasy. As soon as the door opened, he immediately raised his head and looked at the woman with wet hair and a towel. His Adam's apple rolled, and his voice Hoarse, "Chi Huan."
Last night he asked the driver to pick her up, but the driver told him that her bodyguard had picked her up.
At the end, the driver said intentionally or unintentionally, "Mr. Mo... Although he is a bodyguard, the distance between him and Miss Chi is a bit too far... People who don't know may think they are lovers."
couple.
These two words were stuck in his throat like fishbones.
He called her, but she didn't answer. He called her several times, but she didn't answer.
He was so upset that he couldn't suppress his temper, so he called Mo Shiqian.
The man replied casually, "She was drunk and probably fell asleep so she didn't answer the phone."
Chi Huan took a step back and let him in. His voice was slightly hoarse from a hangover, "Xigu, why are you here so early?"
Mo Xigu stared at her face.
It seems like nothing has changed, it seems like something is different.
He was actually a little unsure of Chi Huan's temper.
"I'm sorry about what happened last night."
"last night?"
She didn't remember what happened last night, or she didn't know about it at all.
She only remembered meeting Mo Shiqian, his fiancée and Tang Yueze in 1999. Later she went to have dinner with Youran, and then she got drunk... She vaguely remembered that Mo Shiqian sent her back.
Mo Xigu was startled and realized immediately that Chi Huan was drunk last night and the call was between her friend and Mo Shiqian. She might not know anything, so she changed her words and said, "Have you had breakfast?"
"Not yet, I just finished taking a shower."
He whispered, "Whatever you want to eat, I'll buy it for you."
Chi Huan wiped his hair with a towel, "No need to go to such trouble, I can order takeout."
The man insisted, "You blow dry your hair and I'll buy it."
"Well, I drank too much last night and I have no appetite now. Just buy me some porridge."
"good."
Chi Huan stood at the door and watched him leave, pursed his lips and slowly closed the door.
last night
She returned to the sofa and picked up her phone. As soon as the screen turned on, she saw three or four missed calls displayed on it, one of which was from this morning. She looked at the time on it thoughtfully, and with a movement of her finger, she dialed Leisurely phone call.
Ning Youran's voice was confused, "Hey..."
"Youran, what happened last night?"
"It's nothing, what's wrong?"
"Oh, Xigu came to see me just now. He called me several times last night, but I didn't receive any of them."
"He," Ning Youran curled her lips, because she was half asleep and didn't even think about what she was talking about. She just said what she was thinking, "you were drunk yesterday, so I called him to pick you up. He said on the phone that he would be here soon, but after waiting for a long time, the driver still came, but in the end it was your bodyguard who was reliable and took you back."
Chi Huan pursed his lips and said nothing for a while.
Ning Youran woke up a little, "Huan'er?"
"It's okay, just go back to sleep."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Chi Huan didn't move for a while. After nearly a minute, she put down the phone and got up to dry her hair.
Mo Xigu bought some porridge and served it to her and watched her eat it.
Chi Huan scooped the porridge with a spoon and drank it slowly, "Xigu, do you have a problem with me?"
The man looked at her intently, and his low voice was a little hoarse, "I promised to take you to see the wedding ring last time... but something happened unexpectedly."
She curved her lips and smiled, "Are you going today?"
I'm getting married the day after tomorrow, and I haven't even prepared a wedding ring yet.
Mo Xigu looked at her smile, took out a brocade box from his body, and whispered, "I've bought the ring. Let's see if you like it. If you don't like it, I'll take you to pick it out."
Chi Huan glanced at him, with a smile on her lips, and reached out to take it.
The red brocade box was opened with slender white fingers.
Oh, what a big diamond ring.
At least nine carats. Even though Chi Huan had been rich since he was young, he still liked jewelry, but he only liked it in general. When he saw such a big diamond, he couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart.
He was stingy about spending time on her, but he was not stingy about spending money on her. It was such a big deal.
Mo Xigu watched her looking at the diamond ring in a daze, and frowned, "Don't you like it?"
Chi Huan then raised his head and smiled at him, "What woman doesn't like pigeon eggs? Thank you, I like them very much."
Nothing seemed wrong, but when Mo Xigu looked at her smile, he felt that the depression in his chest had not dissipated.
Maybe... her favorite smile was not as bright as the joy and little surprise when she received the rose that morning, and then the corners of her lips curled up unconsciously.
Chi Huan still had a smile on his face and looked at him with black and white eyes, "Then will you go out with me on a date today?"
Mo Xigu looked at her and was briefly distracted, but then he came to his senses, shook his head and said quietly, "The day after tomorrow is the wedding. I have to deal with some company and wedding matters these two days, so I don't have time for the moment."
After a pause, he reached out and touched her head, "I will play with you when we get to Europe."
The two talked for a while, and then Mo Xigu got up and left.
Chi Huan still sent him downstairs and watched his car leave.
When she came back, she looked at the roses on the coffee table, walked over, and gently touched the petals with her fingers... There were already signs of withering.
The flowering period is really short.
… …
After resting at home for a long time, Chi Huan called Ning Youran to go shopping around noon.
"Wow, you are already going to be a bride, why are you still so idle?"
"Aren't you shopping? You're busy. After the wedding, we're going on a honeymoon trip. When we get back, we'll move into a new home. Shouldn't I be buying some clothes?"
