Gu Huaisheng frowned when he saw the person in front of him: "Jiang Xueru."
He put his arms around Luo Ran's waist, without a trace of relaxation, and even showed a protective gesture, Luo Ran came back to his senses, his eyes flashed lightly, and he also looked at the woman in front of him.
Luo Ran had a light expression on her face, glanced at her, then lowered her eyebrows and leaned against Gu Huaisheng's arms, as if she was a little impatient because of being bumped into, but a dark light flashed in her lowered eyes.
The heroine, Jiang Xueru, appeared earlier than expected.
Jiang Xueru's face was slightly red, not because of shyness, but because of anger, she held a small bag in one hand, pursed her lips and looked at Luo Ran.
Gu Huaisheng squinted slightly and turned to block her gaze: "Why are you here?"
Gu Huaisheng glanced at the woman in his arms, and didn't want Luo Ran to bump into her. Although he and Jiang Xueru had a marriage contract, they only had childhood friendship. Jiang Xueru didn't like this marriage contract, how could he like this other person's finger-pointing? marriage contract
Jiang Xueru was angry when she saw him protecting Luo Ran, but it wasn't because she liked him, but now that they still had a marriage contract, but he embraced other women in a grand manner. Jiang Xueru became more and more displeased with Gu Huaisheng in her heart. With a confidence that is unique to today's advanced women, she took a deep breath:
"Gu Huaisheng, we still have an engagement contract. Although I hate this engagement contract, please respect yourself before breaking the engagement contract."
When she spoke, she glanced at Luo Ran, her delicate makeup, enchanting figure, a little impatience in her brows and eyes, and her mouth tightly pursed, Jiang Xueru was stunned for a moment, and then quickly returned to her senses, with some pride and regret in her eyes, it was for herself The pride of Luo Ran and her regret for Luo Ran's self-indulgent depravity, she solemnly turned to Gu Huaisheng:
"Gu Huaisheng, I can't marry you."
Gu Huaisheng's expression darkened slightly because of the way she looked at Luo Ran, but when he listened to her words again, he laughed instead. In the entire Jiangcheng, in terms of exquisite facial features, I am afraid that no one can compare to Gu Huaisheng. But it also made people panic. He put his arms around Luo Ran and looked at Jiang Xueru with a playful look:
"Why?"
Jiang Xueru blurted out without thinking, "Because I don't love you!"
Gu Huaisheng's mellow voice let out a low laugh, he looked at Jiang Xue's decisive appearance, and shook his head slightly, the look in his eyes completely turned cold, and even Luo Ran in his arms raised the corners of his lips, Gu Huaisheng didn't want to waste any more time On her, looked away from Luo Ran, and said softly:
"Time is running out, let's go."
He wanted to take her to see the play Qingyuan sang in the afternoon. He didn't want to waste today's rare rest time.
Luo Ran's eyes lightly glanced at Jiang Xueru, then moved away calmly, and responded to Gu Huaisheng.
Jiang Xueru didn't think that he would leave if he wanted to, and wanted to reach out to stop them, but the people behind Gu Huaisheng didn't let her get close to them at all.
Luo Ran has not said a word since she met Jiang Xueru. Sitting in the car at this time, she lowered her eyebrows and said suddenly:
"Master Gu, your fiancée is unexpected... happy."
In the end, Luo Ran still used the word "happiness" to describe Jiang Xueru. In this period of misfortune or about to fall, Luo Ran recklessly indulged in the world built by words, unable to distinguish between reality and ideal, unexpected innocence. , but because someone else escorted her.
Is it wrong for her to pursue love? No, she is not wrong.
Gu Huaisheng waited for a long time, but did not expect her to say such a thing. Gu Huaisheng paused for a rare moment and did not deny her words. He had met many people, and Jiang Xueru was indeed happy.
Gu Huaisheng looked at the woman in front of her. She was the most famous girl in Jiangcheng. She was a beautiful woman who spared no expense to make a smile. She was charming and indifferent. Gu Huaisheng had never seen her through, but he couldn't help feeling pity. kiss on her forehead:
"… everything will be fine."
He looked out the window far-reachingly, and seemed to see the dilapidated and new life of this era, full of devastation. He was comforting her, but not only comforting her. He believed that everything would be all right, and that there would be dawn after darkness.
In the afternoon, Qingyuan
Gu Huaisheng's status in Jiangcheng need not be said much. He took Luo Ran and sat in the first row. The famous actor from the south was indeed well-deserved. He sang wonderfully, with delicate eyebrows, male and female appearance, Luo Ran was quite fascinated by it.
Just when she raised her hand to drink tea, she saw someone who shouldn't be here. Mo Zeyu was sitting on the other side not far from them. He seemed to notice her gaze, and looked away from the stage to look at her. , nodded.
Gu Huaisheng noticed her pause, and also saw Mo Zeyu, his eyes narrowed slightly. Today, there are many strange things, and the second master of the Mo family actually appeared in this green garden? In the early years, I was used to fighting and killing, but now I have to cultivate myself
However, it was too early and late, so he chose today, Gu Huaisheng pulled the corner of his mouth lightly, took Luo Ran into his arms, and asked her casually:
"How do you feel?"
Luo Ran smiled with lingering brows and eyes: "The drama recommended by Master Gu is naturally good-looking."
When she complimented her casually, Gu Huaisheng rarely showed a smile, and his thoughts of watching the play were also taken away, and he put it on the woman in his arms.
the other side
Mo Zeyu retracted his gaze from watching the play, raised the teacup and took a sip, and after a while, he took another sip.
Mo Er looked at him with an inexplicable expression, and when he saw Luo Ran again, he understood a little why Er Ye wanted to watch the play today.
The second master once licked blood on the knife's edge, but it was also very expensive. Mo Er looked at the tea in his hand, and the heat had already disappeared. He was a little scared and didn't dare to remind him, so he could only secretly look at the flirting people A man and a woman.
Mo Zeyu lowered his eyes, the tea in the green garden is not good, and the scene sung on the stage is not good-looking, it is not as good as a song by his ballroom girl.
He has never liked watching movies, once did not like it, and now he does not like it even more.
When Luo Ran returned to the ballroom, it was already very late, but the ballroom was still brightly lit. Gu Huaisheng personally sent her back. When the car drove to the street, he asked her if she wanted to go to Gu's house for a seat
Luo Ran refused.
Gu Huaisheng sent her back. At the entrance of the ballroom, Gu Huaisheng didn't get off the bus. When she got off the bus, he suddenly said, "It's so inconvenient to live in the ballroom. Have you ever thought about moving out?"
Luo Ran moved for a while and said indifferently: "This world is not peaceful, it is not safe to live alone outside."
She refused again, Gu Huaisheng looked at her back and sat in the car, silent for a long time, his expression unclear.
After a long time, the driver in front asked, "Master, are you going back?"
Gu Huaisheng squeezed between his brows and restrained his emotions: "Drive."
Since he wants her, there is one thing that must be dealt with.
When Luo Ran entered the ballroom, a waiter told her that Mr. Zheng came for a while and ordered her to sing a song. Luo Ran looked at the sofa on the left side of the stage. Mr. Zheng was over thirty, nearly forty, and he He had a wife who died of illness and has never married.
Luo Ran nodded, went back to the room, changed her clothes, and went to the stage. She stood in the brightest place, facing the microphone in front, with a sloppy attitude, occasionally pressing the brim of the round hat, through the black yarn, a pair of The sullen and affectionate eyes glanced down slightly.
Mr. Zheng and Mo Zeyu have cooperated a lot. Mr. Zheng is a vicious person, but he is used to his sanctimonious appearance. After Luo Ran stepped down, he asked people to invite her.
Luo Ran followed the waiter and sat beside him. Mr. Zheng didn't hug her rashly, but he knew that the woman beside him had just got off Gu Huaisheng's car. Although he had some thoughts about Luo Ran, he didn't want to be there. At this time, fight with Gu Huaisheng.
Luo Ran's delicate fingers held the wine glass, and accompanied Mr. Zheng to drink a glass of wine, smiling lightly, and the two chatted happily.
In the corridor on the third floor, there was a person leaning on the railing, looking at the man below who was chatting and laughing, charming, and at ease. It was Mr. Zheng, who was famous and no longer was around after the death of his wife, and his eyes could not help but tighten. Follow her closely, smiling happily.
On the table, Mr. Zheng's hand seemed to swipe the back of her fair hand unconsciously, but for a moment, she casually raised her hand and stroked her hair. I saw it wrong. The next moment, the man in front of Mo Er turned and walked into the study. Just when Mo Er thought the matter was over, he heard his voice:
"Call her up."
No name was mentioned, but Mo Er also knew who it was.
The waiter found the sofa where Luo Ran was. Mr. Zheng was disturbed, and the smile on his face faded. Luo Ran also looked up and saw the man saying: "Sister Luo, Second Master, please come up. "
Luo Ran paused and looked at Mr. Zheng apologetically: "Mr. Zheng, I'm sorry."
Mr. Zheng didn't dare to stop people: "It's okay, it's getting late, I should go back."
Luo Ran smiled: "Mr. Zheng walk slowly."
The waiter was still waiting. After Luo Ran finished speaking, she picked up the gloves on the table and turned around and followed him up the stairs. She was dressed in a fashionable dress, her back was straight, and her exquisite figure became more enchanting. There were more than half of the men in the ballroom. Eyes followed her.
Mr. Zheng shook his head from behind, first Gu Huaisheng, then Mo Zeyu, it seemed that this beautiful woman, he was hopeless.
Luo Ran entered the study alone, ignoring Mo Er's complicated eyes. Mo Zeyu sat on the sofa, apparently waiting for her, and motioned to his side to let her sit down.
Luo Ran was sitting beside him. She was wearing a foreign dress, with a thin layer of black stockings on her long white legs. She took off the round hat and put it on the sofa, along with the white gloves in her right hand. put it up.
Her legs were folded, and inadvertently, the stockings hooked on the coffee table in front of her, instantly hooking the silk and breaking a hole. She reached out and stroked it carelessly. The thin white fingers and the black stockings were placed together. charming.
Mo Zeyu didn't speak, but at this moment he picked up her hand and put it in his hand, rubbing the back of her hand little by little with his fingertips.
It was still Luo Ran who spoke first: "Is there something for the second master to ask me?"
Mo Zeyu was silent for a moment: "Did you have a good time today?"
Luo Ran's other hand stroked her hair, thinking about the person she met today, her smile faded a little: "Happy."
Mo Zeyu saw her expression in his eyes, squeezed her hand, and looked a little gentle: "What happened?"
The two are not familiar with each other, but there is no discomfort in getting along like this. Luo Ran seems a little tired, leaning on his shoulder, with a very soft voice: "I met Miss Jiang today."
Mo Zeyu naturally knew who Miss Jiang was. After a while, he changed the subject: "Do you want anything?"
It seems that she said yes and gave her away.
Luo Ran smiled softly: "Yes, but no one can give it."
Mo Zeyu looked at her, she smiled lightly, Mo Zeyu suddenly smiled: "I have to try, what does Ah Ran want?"
Luo Ran closed her eyes: "Happiness..." Her voice softened: "... She is as happy as Miss Jiang."
Mo Zeyu's smile faded and finally disappeared. He looked at the extremely delicate woman with his eyes closed, and put his arms around her, letting her seem to fall asleep. After a long time, a sound seemed to sound in the quiet room A sigh.
People in the world always want what they don't have, no exception. It is true that she said that what she wants, no one can give.
