It was already ten o'clock at night after finishing this uneventful dinner. When the two left Pearl No. 1, Lan Xin said apologetically: "Xiao Zheng, I'm really sorry today. I didn't expect to meet Du Hao."
"I didn't lose anything, and I also had an expensive meal." Xiao Zhengfeng lit a cigarette and said with a smile.
Lan Xin felt that Xiao was comforting herself and explained softly: "Xin'ao has had business dealings with Du Hao, so he has dealt with him several times. I originally thought that after so many years, he had gotten rid of the bad habits he had in high school. I never expected that I would still be so willing to spend every penny."
Xiao Zheng said with a smile: "As the old saying goes, you know people but don't know their hearts."
Dare you look down on me, Brother Azheng? Do you think I dare not speak ill of you behind your back? Xiao Zheng decided to use his mouth to ruin Du Hao's reputation!
The Pearl's night was bright and gorgeous, and the refreshing river breeze blew in. Lan Xin did not suggest picking up the car, but walked along the river with Xiao Zheng to digest the delicious food.
Tonight was extremely valuable for Lan Xin. Not only did she have a meal alone with Xiao Zheng, but she also took a walk and chat after the meal. Get up close and personal with the man you've had a crush on for eight years.
"Xiao Zheng, you went to join the army after dropping out of school?" Lan Xin asked softly, stroking her hair that was messed up by the river wind.
No wonder Lan Xin asked someone to inquire about Xiao Zheng, but no one knew his whereabouts. It turned out that he had enlisted in the army.
"Yeah. After I dropped out of school, I went to Yanjing to serve as a soldier for two years because I was under working age and had nothing to do all day long." Xiao Zheng didn't hide anything and said nonchalantly. "But I was too impulsive at that time and injured someone in the army. I was kicked out of the army before two years."
Lan Xin felt heartbroken and said softly: "It doesn't matter, Xinao is on the rise. I believe that it will take less than a few years to open up in Mingzhu, and the future prospects are limitless."
"Then I'll rely on Mr. Lan to support me from now on." Xiao Zheng said with a smile.
Lan Xin's pretty face turned red, and she said softly: "I'm just a part-time worker. Don't push me."
A shy beauty is always the most touching picture in the world. Under the orange streetlight, the fair-skinned and beautiful Lan Xin Xiafei's cheeks and her big, watery eyes exuded a lovely luster. The alluring red lips are more like a blooming rose, making people daydream. Xiao Zheng, who had not interacted with normal women for many years, was obsessed with it, with a dull look on his face.
"Xiao Zheng..."
Lan Xin, who was a little embarrassed by Xiao Zheng's unscrupulous eyes, called softly. Her heart beat violently and her face turned red. There is nowhere to put a pair of small hands. Director Lan, who is capable and decisive at work, felt like a deer in his heart and his delicate body was hot when faced with Xiao Zheng's confused gaze.
Lan Xin wore a light purple dress tonight. It was made of fine workmanship and made of light and thin material. When the river breeze blew, the hem of the skirt fluttered in the wind, making Lan Xin look like a fairy in the sky, so beautiful. Coupled with Director Lan's gentle and elegant temperament, it becomes even more attractive. Even though Xiao Zheng had a strong willpower, he couldn't control himself and had evil thoughts.
"Were you really my classmate before?" Xiao Zheng, who had been silent for a long time, finally asked.
"Yes." Lan Xin nodded lightly, not acting like a director: "I'll sit in the back row of you."
"Have you had plastic surgery?" Xiao Zheng asked coldly. "Why don't I remember having such a beautiful high school classmate?"
Lan Xin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She bit her red lips and said, "I didn't have plastic surgery. If you don't believe me, I'll show you the group photo from high school."
"That's what I meant." Xiao Zheng grinned, successfully overcoming the embarrassment of being distracted just now, and asked. "It's getting late, why don't you go home?"
When Lan Xin heard this, she felt extremely reluctant to leave, but she had no reason to continue wandering around, so she could only nod her head and said, "Yeah. But I put my car over there."
After that, he pointed to the parking lot across the street. Not too far, but still a few hundred meters away.
"I'll accompany you to pick up the car." Xiao Zheng said with a smile.
"Um."
At ten o'clock at night, Mingzhu is bustling with activity, especially in this bustling city with so many people. Even in the early hours of the morning, there was no shortage of people strolling and having fun on the road. It can be said that the city that never sleeps becomes more beautiful as the night goes by, with bright lights.
Late at night. Some pedestrians are in groups, but most of them are in pairs, holding hands while shopping, or leaning against each other and whispering. Lan Xin, who has lived for twenty-six years but has never been in love, is extremely yearning for it.
Speaking of which, given Lan Xin's favorable conditions, as long as she lowered her demands a little, the men who would pounce on her would be as dense as locusts. But so far in her career, not only has she not been in a relationship, she has not even had a man try to develop. One is that there is no choice in the ENN Group, and the other is that she has always been obsessed with Xiao Zheng, so she has no extra thoughts.
Now, she and Xiao Zheng were walking on the street, enjoying the cool breeze at night, and no one knew the happiness in their hearts.
Isn't this moment exactly what she had imagined eight years ago? In her senior year of high school, she fantasized countless times about being able to go on such a journey with Xiao Zheng after school. Even if it was just discussing obscure exercises, she would be satisfied.
Now, she has finally fulfilled her wish eight years ago. But she was far from satisfied. Not satisfied at all…
Women are always greedy and unsatisfied when it comes to love. Unless she truly has this man who broke into her heart and left an unforgettable mark. Otherwise, she will never be satisfied.
Lan Xin tilted her head slightly and carefully looked at Xiao Zheng's face that was imprinted deep in her heart, recalling it for a long time.
His face was tougher than in high school, and his skin was slightly rougher. There is less youthfulness and more vicissitudes of life. His eyes were not as pure as before, they became deep and blurred. It's like a bottomless sea. Once you look into it, you can't pull it out.
His nose bridge is high, his lips are thin, and his lips are covered with green stubble, which adds a bit of masculine charm to him. When he smiled, the brilliance of high school could still be vaguely seen on his face, but once he fell silent, a touch of loneliness appeared on his face. It seems that there are many unbearable past events buried in my heart. It hurts.
"Be careful."
Suddenly.
Xiao Zheng hugged the absent-minded Lan Xin, tightly hugged Lan Xin's soft waist with his strong arms, and suddenly dodged his body to avoid a car that was speeding forward.
As Xiao Zheng turned, Lan Xin was deeply buried in Xiao Zheng's arms due to the inertia of her body. He wrapped his arms around Xiao Zheng's neck, not daring to let go, not willing to let go...
Nestling in Xiao Zheng's arms, Lan Xin could feel the body temperature coming from the other person's body, as well as the faint smell of tobacco. Perhaps from the outside, Xiao Zheng's figure is not burly, but as soon as he touches it, you can feel Xiao Zheng's powerful muscles. It's not hamstrings strengthened in the gym, but muscles with smooth lines and extremely explosive power.
Xiao Zheng, who had stabilized his body, let go of his hands on Director Lan's waist and asked softly: "Are you okay?"
"Something's wrong!" Lan Xin still refused to let go of her arms, raised her head slightly, and stared at Xiao Zheng with hazy eyes.
"What happened? Where are you injured?" Xiao Zheng asked with concern.
Lan Xin bit her red lips, her pretty face flushed and said: "In my heart!" After a slight pause, Director Lan said stubbornly: "Xiao Zheng, I like you. I fell in love with you eight years ago!"
"In order to go to the same university as you, I gave up the opportunity to go to Pearl University. I repeated my studies in the same class as you."
"I have never forgotten you in the past eight years. I also believe that you will come back sooner or later. No matter what you become, in my heart, you are the little overlord of Pearl No. 1 Middle School, the Xiao Zheng who is brave and high-spirited!"
