Ruan Xia drove out in the morning. After receiving the call from Ruan's mother, she dialed Song Tingshen's cell phone, and the other end quickly picked it up.
"My mother said that I made up a birthday for you today, how about this, I will go to a beauty salon near your company for a facial later, call me when you are done, I will drive over to pick you up, we will also There's no need to drive two cars, don't you think?"
Song Tingshen also drove the car when he was going out in the morning. He was going to have dinner at Ruan's house. It was not worthwhile to drive two cars there. It happened that she was going to make a face near the Song family, so she could pick him up on the way.
Although she is now a little rich woman with money and leisure, the essence has not changed... To save fuel costs, it has increased by 30 cents two days ago! Everyone is going to steal money!
Song Tingshen had no objection either, and said, "Then please come and pick me up."
The relationship between the two is a little bit better now than when Ruan Xia just crossed over, but Song Tingshen is still very polite and polite to her, it should be because of his personality.
"Okay, I won't delay your work, hang up."
The phone call between the two of them didn't mention Duan Chi, a sophomore in middle school.
For Song Tingshen, although he was very angry at the time, he didn't keep it in his heart.
For Ruan Xia, this matter is not very honorable, and she is too embarrassed to mention it. Some things can be said at the end. If explanations are mentioned frequently, it will embarrass each other.
The world of adults is like this, some boring things, just let it go with the wind.
After hanging up the phone, Song Tingshen wanted to laugh a little. In fact, this was the first time in his life that a woman who had nothing to do with work drove him to get off work, and her tone of voice was really interesting, as if she regarded him as Wang Zi.
Even so, Song Tingshen still picked up the landline and called the driver, telling him to leave work early today without sending him back, and to pick him up early tomorrow morning.
Just when Song Tingshen was about to devote himself to his work, his personal mobile phone rang again.
This time it was a call from my friend Li Yuanhang.
"It was only when I looked at the calendar that I realized that yesterday was your birthday, Lao Song, shouldn't you care about this?" Li Yuanhang's voice came from the phone.
Song Ting paused, "It's really hard for you to remember."
"How did you live yesterday? How about it, I'm the host today, and I invite the youngest and the others to have a drink together, and it's as a birthday celebration for you."
The friendship in the student days, if you really meet someone with the right temper and appetite, maybe you can last a lifetime. Song Tingshen is not good at communication, and the only ones who can be called good friends are the few roommates in college.
It's just that everyone is very busy now, basically all have wives, children, and careers, and there are fewer and fewer opportunities to get together.
Song Ting was silent for a few seconds, and replied: "Not today, let's do it another day."
"Although it's really sad to celebrate your birthday now, which indicates that you are one year older, but you can also work so hard to celebrate your birthday..." Li Yuanhang said, "The work is endless and the money is endless. Just enjoy life."
Li Yuanhang was the most verbose among them, and seeing that he was giving him an ideological education class again, Song Tingshen hurriedly explained, "No, my father-in-law and mother-in-law are going to make up for my birthday, and the three of us have to go there for dinner tonight. , I really don’t have time.”
"Oh? That's fine. By the way, let me ask you a question, how did you live yesterday?"
When Song Tingshen answered this question, his tone became much lighter, "It's not like that, I lived with Wang Zai and his mother."
Mama Wangzai...
Li Yuanhang couldn't recover when he heard the words. Although Song Tingshen brought Ruan Xia over to his wedding last time, even if he didn't deliberately inquire about it, he knew that the relationship between the couple was not good. Now it seems that the ice has been broken
They attended a wedding together and celebrated their birthday together. As a good friend, Li Yuanhang of course hoped that his brother would have a happy family, so he smiled and said, "That's pretty good. After this person gets married, he should spend his birthday with his wife and children." But, how about this, when you are free, we brothers will get together again, and it will be a make-up birthday for you."
Before Song Tingshen hung up the phone, he pretended to be casual and said, "You just remembered that today is my birthday? That's strange."
Li Yuanhang asked, "Yeah, what's wrong?"
"It's not a big deal." Song Ting paused, his eyes were fixed on the photo on the desk, it was taken when Wang Zai was one year old, at that time he was fatter than now, his arms were like Michelin, It's really cute, "Yesterday Li Jing made me a cake, I thought you told her about my birthday. Forget it, it's nothing."
There are some words, just click and stop.
He thought that Li Yuanhang should understand what he meant.
Li Yuanhang's breathing was stagnant, and he didn't know how long it took before he said in a deep voice, "I see."
Hearing Li Yuanhang's words, Song Tingshen also felt a lot more relaxed. Although he didn't feel that Li Jing's matter was worth a headache, after all, there was Li Yuanhang in the middle, and the friendship of so many years was here, so he said something will be better.
Even if he is single today, without a wife or Wang Zi, he will not fall in love with Li Jing.
For Li Yuanhang's sake, there are some words and things that he can't do too much, so he can only disclose this matter to himself and let him solve it. It will be better, and it will also take care of Li Jing's face .
As soon as he hung up the phone, Song Tingshen dialed the internal line and asked Assistant Chen to come in.
"For the dinner tonight, you ask Vice President Zhang to go for me. I have something to do." Song Tingshen said.
Assistant Chen nodded and wrote down, "Okay, Mr. Song."
Originally, after ordering this matter, Assistant Chen should go out, but the boss didn't let him go, so he could only stand at the desk, waiting for his next order.
After being silent for a while, Song Tingshen looked at his little assistant and asked with some difficulty: "Xiao Chen, I remember you have a girlfriend, right?"
Assistant Chen waited for a long time, but it was inevitable that he was a little confused when he waited for such a problem that had nothing to do with work. However, he is a very professional assistant, so he quickly cheered up and replied: "Well, she I work in City A, but I may be transferred to work at the end of this year."
Song Ting nodded deeply, "That's good, how did you know each other?"
Maybe no one would believe it. Song Tingshen really has very little experience in love. He was handed a love letter and confessed to him when he was a student, but at that time he just wanted to study hard and get admitted to the best university to change himself. A mediocre fate, he did not have a good family background, lost his mother at an early age, and was able to rely on his parents' compensation to go all the way to university because of his strong self-control. He knows that reading may not be the only thing for others A way out, but for him it was, and because of this, he dared not think otherwise when he went to school.
Later, before graduating from university, he started to work part-time. By chance, he embarked on the road of starting a business. This is a more difficult road than going to school. He dared not slack off in the slightest, because he could not afford to lose. , This situation didn't get better until he was thirty, when his career was already stable, and then...he met Ruan Xia, and then got married and had children.
Strictly speaking, he is really not very good at feelings. If this is a game, he is the most rookie in Novice Village.
Assistant Chen didn't expect the boss to be interested in his relationship history, so he touched his nose in embarrassment, "Actually, I met my girlfriend on a blind date."
"Blind date?" Song Ting had heard about it, but he had never experienced it himself.
"It's very old-fashioned... I didn't want to fall in love at first, but my parents were too anxious and arranged several blind dates for me." When Assistant Chen mentioned his girlfriend, his eyes lit up, "Actually, she is not me. The type I like, I didn't have that kind of thought for her when I first met her, but I couldn't stand the urging of my parents, so I bite the bullet and got in touch with her a few times, chatting and getting along slowly, and then I got to know her, and after getting to know her, I also got to know her. I fell in love with it."
Song Ting smiled deeply, "If you don't like it at first, can you like it later?"
Assistant Chen nodded, probably successfully opened up the chatter box, and now he talked more, "There are so many people who fall in love at first sight, many of them fall in love only after getting to know each other." He paused, boldly He asked, "You and your wife must have fallen in love at first sight, right?"
Song Ting was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head, "No."
"That's love after a long time." Assistant Chen showed envy.
Song Tingshen never liked to tell others about his private affairs, especially the matter with Ruan Xia, and now he didn't directly refute what Assistant Chen said.
In the past few days, he has been thinking about his relationship with Ruan Xia. He used to think that the way of marriage without interfering with each other was advisable, but as Wang Zi grew up, he felt that he needed to change his thinking.
In fact, Assistant Chen's words also awakened him. He doesn't hate Ruan Xia now, and presumably Ruan Xia doesn't hate him either. Although the two of them have no affection for each other, they don't have any bad feelings for each other. Isn't it a bit like a blind date man and woman who just met? Woolen cloth
There is Wang Zi between them. After talking about it once before, it is confirmed that no one has plans to divorce in a short time. If this is the case, why not try to get in touch with him like Assistant Chen and his girlfriend
There is no way to fall in love at first sight, so let's take the route of love over time.
After figuring this out, Song Tingshen suddenly became enlightened.
Just temporarily treat Ruan Xia as a blind date.
