"Do you always have to laugh so hard?"
During the meal, Fu Shaoyan suddenly said something like this. Qin Chengxi didn't understand what it meant. He put down the knife and fork in his hand and raised his head to look at him: "Are you saying my smile is ugly?"
Fu Shaoyan shook his head: "It's not ugly, it's far-fetched. I really want to see your smile from the heart."
"I'm sorry," Qin Chengxi's smile became more and more unnatural as he explained, "Too many things have happened recently, which makes me feel a little uncomfortable. I always feel like I can't laugh."
"Let the past go. You have to look forward in life. As long as you work hard, tomorrow will be better than today, you know?"
"Yeah." Qin Chengxi nodded seriously, suddenly thinking of something, he became embarrassed again.
Fu Shaoyan saw through her thoughts and smiled: "Don't think too much, it's just a casual meal with friends. Thank you."
Qin Chengxi was puzzled: "Why are you thanking me?"
Fu Shaoyan also put down the knife and fork in his hand, and his face became a little solemn: "My parents are not in Ancheng. Although living alone is comfortable, it can also be quite lonely sometimes. Especially when I come home from get off work, I always feel that it is not home, but just a night's rest." hotel. So it’s rare that you’re willing to treat me to this meal today, shouldn’t I say thank you?”
"I often feel this way when I'm alone abroad." Qin Chengxi expressed her understanding. The scene when she and Shang Qi came home from get off work together involuntarily flashed through her mind, and her heart was filled with bitterness.
If it weren't for the difficulties faced by Shang's parents, she wouldn't have left Shang Qi. At this time, she and Shang Qi should have dinner affectionately before dinner.
Unfortunately, there is no going back.
"Perhaps it's time to change the current situation of life." Fu Shaoyan raised the wine glass in his hand, "Starting from today."
The simple-minded Qin Chengxi didn't understand what he meant, but politely picked up the wine glass and took a sip of red wine.
"You invited me to dinner, and I feel sorry for you. Why don't I treat you to a movie? I haven't seen a movie for a long time, and I heard that there are many good movies released recently." Fu Shaoyan said when he was about to finish eating.
It was still early, so Qin Chengxi didn't object. The two chose a light-hearted comedy and spent two hours happily. After watching the movie, Fu Shaoyan didn't drive, but led her to the overpass to enjoy the neon night view, indifferently. Look at the glitz of the world.
Although his mood improved a lot, Qin Chengxi still couldn't help but think about Shang Qi and how wonderful it would be to have Shang Qi next to him.
Because of this loss, Qin Chengxi, who didn't talk much to begin with, suddenly became even less talkative.
Fu Shaoyan, on the other hand, took the trouble to find various topics to chat with her. He didn't send her home until the night wind blew and Qin Chengxi felt a little cold.
"Xiao Yu? Did you have fun today?"
"Brother and sister-in-law? Why aren't you sleeping yet?"
As soon as he entered the house, he saw Qin Jinhuan and Mu Yu sitting in the living room. Qin Chengxi was a little uneasy for a moment. He only thought that they would blame her for coming home so late, and hurriedly explained, "Originally, I wanted to come back earlier, but I couldn't help but talk to Mr. Fu too much." Chatted for a few words.”
"What do you think of him?" Mu Yu asked.
"Nice people."
"Oh? What's a good idea?" Qin Jinhuan asked.
"Well, he is handsome, gentlemanly and humorous. In short, it is quite comfortable to look at." Qin Chengxi told the truth.
"Very good!" Qin Jinhuan smiled for a moment, "So, have you decided?"
Only when Qin Chengxi heard what his brother and sister-in-law meant, he suddenly had a dark clue: "Brother, sister-in-law, what are you talking about? I invited Mr. Fu to dinner today just to express my gratitude to him for sending me to the hospital that day. He felt sorry and invited me back. Just watched a movie, it’s that simple, we don’t have anything else to do.”
"Fu Shaoyan's character is pretty good. He and his parents are very enlightened in their thinking. I think he's a good fit for you. I'll have more opportunities to have more contact with him in the future."
"Brother! I don't want to talk about relationships now." Qin Chengxi looked gloomy.
"That boy Shang Qi will not bring you happiness. You should seek happiness for yourself. I believe in my vision. Fu Shaoyan is a good person."
"Of course I believe in my brother's vision, it's just about feelings... Brother, I know you do it for my own good, but I really can't let go of Shang Qi for a while."
Seeing Qin Chengxi's eyes turning red, Mu Yu quickly teased Qin Jinhuan, while interjecting: "Take your time, take your time, give Xiao Xi some time."
"Thank you for your understanding, sister-in-law. Brother, sister-in-law, I'm going back to the room first."
After Qin Chengxi finished speaking, he quickly went upstairs to his room.
After locking the door, she leaned against the back of the door and cried.
Although it had been so many days, she still didn't believe that she and Shang Qi had broken up.
Sometimes she would look through phone messages or WeChat chat records, and the sweet scene between the two would immediately appear in front of her eyes.
Only when she saw clearly that the screen showed the interaction between him and her many days ago would she be thrown back to reality, feeling disappointed.
Sure enough, falling out of love is the most painful thing.
When Qin Chengxi was worried and uncomfortable, Shang Qi was actually not much better.
A man came home from get off work and stood in the entrance hall in a daze.
There are also slippers worn by Qin Chengxi in the shoe cabinet, and there are her clothes in his wardrobe.
The food on the dining table was still cooked according to her taste.
Although the food was delicious, he had difficulty swallowing it.
After only eating a few mouthfuls, he put down his bowls and chopsticks and went straight back to the bedroom.
The night reflected the white moonlight outside the window, which was extremely soft and beautiful, but he tossed and turned in such beautiful moonlight and could not fall asleep for a long time.
It was obviously so warm under the quilt, and he was obviously very tired today, but he just couldn't sleep.
The room was still the same room she had stayed in, the bed was still the bed she had slept on, her favorite doll was still placed beside the bed, and the photo of her and him was also smiling at him. In this room filled with her breath, he I really can't sleep.
Holding the pillow she had slept on tightly in his arms, his heart calmed down a little.
It wasn't until the latter half of the night that he began to fall asleep while murmuring her name.
There was a fog in front of my eyes.
He and Qin Chengxi were shopping when a car suddenly came out from the opposite side and separated them. He reached out to grab the person who was close by, not wanting to miss the chance.
When he turned around and saw that she was no longer with him, he was frightened for a moment and frantically searched for her in the streets and alleys.
However, she seemed to have disappeared, letting him scream her throat out, letting him step on her iron shoes, and there was no news.
"squeak"
"Help"
Amid Qin Chengxi's scream, Shang Qi suddenly sat up.
He reached out to touch the bed beside him out of habit, and found that there was no one inside. Suddenly his heart was so empty that it made him suffocate.
It turned out that his heart had followed her to the Qin family.
Suddenly he stood up and walked into the bathroom, using cold water to wash away the cold sweat that had occurred in his dream.
He really wanted to call her, but he opened the address book several times and finally gave up.
"How long will this kind of life last?"
He yelled at the mirror.
The mirror ignored him.
In the end, he was left helpless.
Another night of no sleep.
When he woke up the next day, the dark circles under his eyes had deepened.
After having some random breakfast, he came to the office and saw the desk where Qin Chengxi used to work sitting in the corner. He felt it was very annoying and asked his secretary to move it out.
Half an hour later.
He poked his head out from the pile of documents, called his secretary in and asked, "Where is that table?"
The secretary widened his eyes and explained: "I moved according to your order."
"When did I say such a thing? Move it back here immediately!" Shang Qi was furious, "How dare you make any changes to the decoration of my office in the future?"
, just pack up and leave. "
The secretary twitched and read, but didn't dare to say anything, and hurriedly asked someone to move the table back.
This time she learned the lesson and carefully restored her appearance when Qin Chengxi was around when handling the details on the table.
Shang Qi was satisfied.
After the secretary went out, he put down the pen in his hand and stared at the table in a daze for a long time.
After this incident, everyone at Xinxin Media Company knew about Shang Qi's lovelorn affair, and everyone was walking on eggshells, fearing that they would accidentally offend their boss and be fired.
For several days in a row, Fu Shaoyan came to Qin's house to find Qin Chengxi. Of course, there were various reasons.
Just because these reasons are sufficient, Qin Chengxi, who doesn't know how to refuse people, can't refuse him.
However, Fu Shaoyan was really very humorous and could always make her laugh quietly, which also made her like him even more.
Not only her, but also Wan Wan particularly likes this uncle who has many tricks, and always pesters him to show her tricks, or let him do small handicrafts for her.
On weekdays, Mu Yu and Qin Jinhuan were both very busy. Wanwan was originally brought to the servants, but since Qin Chengxi returned to the Qin family, Wanwan has been attached to her.
At first, because her injuries were not healed, a servant would always take care of her. Later, her injuries gradually healed, and she refused to ask a servant to take care of her. She kept saying "Dudu" all day long. "The long "dudu" is short, and even when eating and drinking, you have to "dudu".
Although she can't have children, Qin Chengxi really likes children. She doesn't feel annoyed at all by what Wanwan wants her to do. On the contrary, she enjoys it.
Sometimes Mu Yu and Qin Jinhuan were off work and saw that Wan Wan did not come over to ask for a hug. They were both a little jealous. They laughed and teased Wan Wan several times for forgetting her parents because she had an aunt.
And since Fu Shaoyan came, he quickly attracted Wanwan's attention away. As long as he came to Qin's house, Wanwan would welcome him by shouting "Brother Xiao (Shao) Yan".
Seeing that Qin Chengxi had also "lost her favor", Mu Yu and Qin Jinhuan lamented several times that their daughter "liked the new and disliked the old".
The weather was particularly good that day, and Qin Chengxi was about to take Wanwan out for a walk. Unexpectedly, Fu Shaoyan came again before he walked out of the door.
"The weather is very nice today. I skipped work and went out for a walk. Do you want to hang out with me?" Fu Shaoyan did not enter the yard, but looked at Wanwan at the door and yelled loudly on purpose.
Huanwan was the first to raise her chubby little hand: "Brother Xiao (Shao) Yan is taking the baby to play."
"Then do you listen to your brother?"
"Be obedient! Babies are the most obedient!" Wanwan broke away from Qin Chengxi's hand and ran towards Fu Shaoyan.
"Well, you chameleon, you just said you would go out with me." Qin Chengxi followed with a smile and got into Fu Shaoyan's car.
The two of them took Wanwan to a nearby small amusement park and played there until noon. Then they found a nearby restaurant and prepared to eat.
"Wow, how can this little girl look so beautiful? She's even prettier than the baby in the painting."
"If the parents are so good-looking, how can the baby not be good-looking?"
Hearing the discussion at the next table, Qin Chengxi turned around subconsciously, only to realize that they were talking about saving. When she realized that the good-looking "parents" they talked about were her and Fu Shaoyan, she was immediately embarrassed and wanted to explain. , but Fu Shaoyan pushed her head back with his hands.
"They don't know us, so there's no need to explain." He leaned into her ear and whispered.
"but… "
She turned her head habitually to explain the reason to him, but she didn't expect him to be so close to her, and her lips almost touched his, and she was immediately embarrassed.
"But what?" He looked calm and looked at her with a smile.
"I think… "
Before she finished speaking, the color suddenly drained from her face because she saw a familiar face in the crowd, the eyes on his face were staring directly at her.
