The wind chimes rang and jingled. Liang Qiao got up to get something, and saw a black car parked not far from the glass door. The window of the car was open, and an orange light was faintly visible inside, and there was also a faint profile of a man. Maple Leaf Town has arrived. Very quiet at night with few people.
Even if people go shopping, they are just strolling by the lake. There are very few such cars, as if they are out of place here.
He glanced at it, turned around and went back, sat down on the sofa, removed the tissue and handed it to Meng Ying.
I thought Tan Huan's feelings were embarrassing, but I didn't expect Meng Ying's to be even more distressing. Everyone under the camera was quiet. It's over."
After drinking, Meng Ying's eyes were a little red because of talking about it, but she didn't cry, she just hugged her knees, smiled and shook her head.
The story is indeed heavy.
It started from secret love, from communication, from not knowing that I was a substitute and being self-indulgent, and finally finding out that I was a substitute.
In the end, Meng Ying said: "Actually, the most painful thing is not being a stand-in, but not getting any return for the feelings you gave."
"He doesn't love you, these four words are the biggest original sin."
Li Yuan'er sniffed hard: "That's right! This is the original sin, that man has no heart! He doesn't deserve it!"
"I understand what you mean." Tan Huan said, "It's too scary not to love."
In love, he compromised, but in the end it was just because of a word of love. In the end, he not only used the person as a substitute, but also didn't love him, which hurt his self-esteem very much.
Liang Qiao didn't say a word, but silently handed Meng Ying a tissue. She was still beautiful, with long hair and shawls, and her skin was as white as paper under the light, with a hint of pink. There is no one who doesn't love such a woman!
"Actually... Could it be that there is no love? Is it love without knowing it?" Zhao Qiao hesitated for a while, and asked, and finally finished speaking, and then waved her hands, "No, it's really scum."
She spoke very quietly.
Seeing the guilt in Meng Ying's eyes, she pushed Xu Yi as she spoke.
Xu Yi took the phone and edited.
Xu Yi: It's really nothing!
Xu Dian: Are you in "Leisure Time"
Xu Yi: I am too lazy to tell you.
Xu Dian: I saw it.
Xu Yi: Your mother told you to get out.
Xu Dian: What did you talk about
Xu Yi: Don't try to talk me out of it.
Xu Dian: You should know everything.
After finishing speaking, Xu Dian stretched out his hand out of the window, holding a cigarette between his fingertips, and the ash flew away.
It was a little cold, and his arms were a little cold. He turned his head and looked at the inn where the wind chimes were ringing all the time. Because he was far away, he still couldn't see clearly.
I can't even see Meng Ying.
And his parents.
The black car stopped for a while, the man retracted his arms, held the steering wheel, then started, and left the lakeside of Lover's Lake.
The willows by the lake shook slightly because he left.
Late at night.
The emotional story is over.
Meng Ying's wine also woke up a little, and her emotions came out. Tan Huan looked at the time and said, "It's very late, let's go to bed first, there are new guests coming tomorrow."
"Okay." Li Yuan'er wanted to help Meng Ying, but Zhao Qiao pouted, "Go away, I will help."
"Sister!" Li Yuan'er was dissatisfied and protested.
Zhao Qiao didn't care, she helped Meng Ying up, Meng Ying smiled and said, "Sister, I'm fine, I'm sober."
"Why do you call me sister again? You call me aunt..." Zhao Qiao said without confidence. She gave birth to and raised her son, but she didn't expect it to be like this.
Can't figure it out.
Xu Dian has been popular with women since he was a child, this cannot be an excuse for him to be a scumbag.
"No, I'm your sister."
Zhao Qiao paused, "Okay... let's go."
Meng Ying felt sober, so she didn't ask Zhao Qiao to help her. She chatted and laughed with Li Yuaner, and walked to the room. Zhao Qiao and Xu Yi watched Meng Ying leave, and they left after a while. In the living room, the camera was turning quietly, and the photographer also put away the machine and went back to rest.
No one asked Meng Ying who that man was.
How is he now.
No one asked.
Back in the room, Meng Ying and Li Yuaner went to take a bath in batches. Li Yuaner was very considerate and asked Meng Ying first, and said that she would wait for Meng Ying outside, which made Meng Ying a little dizzy and uncomfortable. The child who was to be taken care of, she laughed, rubbed Li Yuaner's hair, and went into the bathroom with her pajamas.
The hot water was rushing.
Li Yuan'er thought for a while and asked, "Meng Ying, are you and Mr. Xu just friends with friends now? Does he know that you once had this relationship?"
"No wonder you don't love him. How can you fall in love with someone again after you have experienced such a relationship?"
The sound of water is not loud.
Hearing Li Yuaner's words, Meng Ying lowered her head, hot water rushed to her hair, and the water dripped down.
She didn't answer.
Li Yuan'er could only be heard outside saying: "President Xu is really pitiful."
"Ah."
Meng Ying hooked her lips.
He is so poor.
I don't know if she told this story. Meng Ying slept well that night, and almost overslept the next day. After waking up, she rushed to the kitchen, but she smelled a scent. Meng Ying poked her head, and Mrs. Xu was already wearing an apron inside. I was busy, and looked back, "Oh, Meng Ying, you woke up."
"Sister, you get up so early to cook?" Meng Ying walked in and saw that soy milk, fried eggs, bread, and steamed buns were so rich.
"Yeah, I'm leaving tonight. I miss you so much. I'll make you breakfast with my own hands." Zhao Qiao wiped the water from her hands and straightened Meng Ying's collar.
Meng Ying froze for a moment, then looked down at her fingertips.
Her mother never cared for her like that.
She glanced at Zhao Qiao, Zhao Qiao smiled, with a smile in her eyes, full of liking for seeing her.
It turns out that being liked by the elders is such a feeling, Meng Ying said in a low voice: "Sister, your craftsmanship is really good."
"It's still yours."
"Your good." Meng Ying walked over, took a bite of the steamed bun with her chopsticks, wow, it was delicious.
"Slow down, don't get burned."
Zhao Qiao ordered.
Meng Ying raised her head and looked at her pair of peach blossom eyes.
Peach Blossom Eyes, once there is affection, it is too warm.
After a while, the rest of the people woke up, and they were surprised to see Zhao Qiao making breakfast, because Zhao Qiao looked like the kind of person whose fingers did not touch the spring water, with slender and beautiful fingers and smooth skin, who looked like a normal person. A person who knows how to take care of himself, who knows he can cook well.
Sitting at the dining table, Zhao Qiao leaned on Mr. Xu's shoulder and said, "Before I married him, I was also the pillar of the family. Of course I would do these things."
"Really? What kind of pillar?"
Zhao Qiao smiled and said nothing.
The Zhao family is also a famous family. She said that the mainstay was sent abroad to study at the age of fifteen, but because she missed Chinese food, she made it herself. She retired from her position when she was older and married Xu Yi.
But the rest of the people, including Meng Ying, thought that her mainstay was to make money to support the family, and she had to take on the responsibility of a family at a young age.
Meng Ying seemed to see herself.
Speaking of which, she has been the breadwinner of the family for more than five years.
After breakfast, Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu didn't go out to play anymore. They just watched TV in the inn. Mrs. Xu kept pulling Meng Ying to talk. She was even more affectionate than yesterday, and she wanted to exchange WeChat with Meng Ying. Meng Ying obeyed Mrs. Xu's request. Meaning, added. After adding, Meng Ying randomly clicked into Mrs. Xu's circle of friends.
Mrs. Xu has posted a lot of Moments, but they are all for sharing life.
After scrolling through a dozen or so posts, Meng Ying stopped and backed out, while Zhao Qiao quickly deleted the circle of friends related to Xu Dian.
I was sweating profusely.
subsequently.
Zhao Qiao sent a WeChat message: It's all you.
Xu Dian: What
Zhao Qiao: Don't even think about appearing in my circle of friends in the future.
Xu Dian: ...
Xu Dian: OK.
Zhao Qiao: Oh.
Time passed quickly. In the afternoon, Liangqiao went to pick up another group of guests. This time there were four people, two men and two women. They were all students, but they were not couples, they just came here to play together. In fact, there are not many places to visit in Maple Leaf Town, mainly because of the beautiful scenery. "Leisure Time" is specially selected for this kind of paradise for filming.
As for Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu, their plane was scheduled at 7:30, because the plane had meals, so Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu did not stay to finish their meal. This time, Meng Ying and Liang Qiao sent them to the airport. After getting off the car, Zhao Qiao kept holding Meng Ying's hand and said, "Remember to contact me when you return to Licheng."
"Okay." Meng Ying also shook her hand back, her hand was very warm.
Zhao Qiao looked at the child.
In the beginning, I liked it because of my son.
Then things changed, she simply liked children like Meng Ying.
She glanced at Xu Yi.
Xu Yi pulled the luggage, looked at Meng Ying and said, "If you have any difficulties in the future, you can go to Aunt Qiao and talk to you, and we will help you."
"Thank you, Uncle Xu."
A promise from the Xu family is worth a thousand dollars.
It's a pity that Meng Ying didn't know.
After sending the two of them off, Meng Ying and Liang Qiao boarded the car to go back to the inn, but at this moment they received a call from the supermarket yesterday, it was the girl at the front desk.
"Miss Meng, the gift box has been sold out, please come and get the money."
"Can't we send it on WeChat?" Meng Ying asked, looking at the weather outside.
"Ah, the children on Maple Leaf Mountain, they can't use their mobile phones." The girl at the front desk said, it seemed that she knew more about Maple Leaf Mountain than Meng Ying and the others.
Liang Qiao said: "It was cash last year, but it was given to us by the village head."
"Okay, then let's go there now, how can it sell so fast?" It was just placed yesterday, but it was sold out today
The little girl at the front desk smiled and didn't answer.
After hanging up the phone, the car started to go to the supermarket. Meng Ying wasn't afraid to run into Xu Dian again. As soon as she entered the supermarket, she found that the supermarket was a little different from yesterday.
It seems like some shelves are empty, and red symbols for discounts are all over the place.
And the place where the gift box was placed yesterday is already empty.
The girl at the front desk said, "Miss Meng, you have to go inside and get it from the accountant."
"Okay, thank you." Meng Ying went to the aisle yesterday and turned in. Today, there was no one, only a small door leading to the backyard.
The door of the office next to it was ajar, and it said Finance Department.
Meng Ying walked in and saw Xu Dian standing by the table, looking down at the report. He raised his eyes, looked over, and said, "Here you are?"
The big brother behind the camera subconsciously lowered the camera when he saw this imposing man. Xu Dian didn't wear glasses today, Liang Qiao noticed that the man's gaze had been on Meng Ying's body, although there was no expression on his face, there was a little emotion in his eyes.
this person.
Definitely like Meng Ying.
Liang Qiao thought.
He's a little nervous.
He didn't know why he was nervous, but he was nervous anyway. He looked at Meng Ying, then walked forward subconsciously, standing in front of Meng Ying, and said, "Sir, where is the money for selling the gift box?"
Xu Dian's sight was blocked, he put his hands in his pockets, squinted his eyes at Liang Qiao, and then asked in a low voice, "Did I talk to you?"
Impressive.
It's like watching ants.
Immediately, Liang Qiao was embarrassed.
Meng Ying could feel Liang Qiao's emotions. She crossed Liang Qiao, stepped forward, and said, "Take it out."
The tone is blunt.
Her face was not polite, she looked at him directly, even with a hint of coldness.
Xu Dian: "..."
He rolled his Adam's apple, then reached out and opened the drawer, took out a large red envelope inside, and put it on the table.
Meng Ying ignored him, stepped forward to pick it up, opened the red envelope, and counted the money on the spot, all of which were 100 yuan red bills. After counting, the money was doubled.
She looked at Xu Dian.
Xu Dian said: "I paid more."
"I'm going back tomorrow..."
"Okay, thank you." Meng Ying looked at Qian without being polite to him, turned around and left after finishing speaking.
Back to Licheng.
Three words stuck in his throat.
