After eating and drinking, Lu Yao took Ji Guanxin to the river to take a boat ride, and then went to the island to ride a bicycle. In fact, Lu Yao has not lived such a life for many years. Don't worry about the person in your heart. There is no need to think about whether that person is thinking about you.
I thought it would be difficult to let go, but now I have figured it out. That's all. Anyway, she was always the only one directing and acting. Now she secretly gave up and acted as if nothing had happened. To her, to him. Good for everyone.
Ji Guanxin couldn't remember how many years it had been since he had ridden a bicycle, and it was still this kind of ride with two people. He sat at the front. Lu Yao sat in the back. The afternoon sun was not scorching, not to mention that the temperature in Winter City was not as high as Night City, so it was very comfortable.
Lu Yao is sitting behind. Occasionally I'll be lazy. She doesn't ride herself. Ask Ji Guanxin to ride alone. It's not that Ji Guanxin can't ride, he just works hard. Some benefits still have to be withdrawn. For example, he would ask Lu Yao to feed him large balls of colorful marshmallows from behind, and he would also ask her to feed him water.
Lu Yao couldn't see his face again. So sometimes I would slap marshmallows on his face and hear Ji Guanxin make a sound of "Uh-huh".
She kept laughing because Ji Guanxin was like a living treasure. She felt like he was tickling her every minute, and she couldn't help but laugh.
When we got out of the car, the sun was already setting in the west. The first thing Lu Yao said when she got out of the car was: "My legs are broken."
Ji Guanxin glanced at her and said teasingly: "Your legs are still broken from the pedals. My feet are tied to the pedals, okay?"
Lu Yao thought that it was Ji Guanxin who was riding the whole journey. She smiled and replied, "Okay, I'll treat you to a midnight snack as a reward."
In the summer in Dongcheng, at night, the most common sight is various barbecue stalls for late-night snacks. Lu Yao took Ji Guanxin to a house on the riverside. The two of them did not sit indoors, but sat outside, in the corner. There was backlight here, and when the waiter came to place the order, he didn't recognize Ji Guanxin.
The two ordered a lot of food, and Ji Guanxin also ordered a draft beer.
When the river breeze blew, the sounds of chatter in Northeastern dialect filled her ears. Lu Yao felt that this life had not happened for a long time.
Before Lu Baiquan and Du Hui divorced, Lu Yao still had a good childhood. Although they often quarreled, no matter how much they quarreled, they were still husband and wife, and their home was still a home. She had a father and a mother.
Before she was almost ten years old, Lu Yao would come to the riverside for supper with Lu Baiquan, Du Hui and Lu Chi as a family of four. That was the best memory of Lu Yao's childhood.
When Ji Guanxin saw Lu Yao looking at the river in a daze, he said aloud, "What are you thinking about?"
Lu Yao was silent for a few seconds and then said softly: "Tell me, are there any couples or lovers in this world who don't quarrel?"
Just when Ji Guanxin was about to say no, Lu Yao preceded him and added: "I mean the kind that will never separate no matter how much we quarrel."
Ji Guanxin thought for a while and replied: "Yes, quarrels are inevitable, but not all couples break up after a quarrel."
Lu Yao stopped talking because she didn't know if she and Ji Guanxin, who were so good now, would suddenly change one day. She is afraid of quarrels and separation.
Ji Guanxin had read Lu Yao's information before and knew that she was originally a family of four, with a brother named Lu Chi. However, Lu Chi was not born to Du Hui, but to Lu Baiquan's ex-wife. Lu Baiquan and Du Hui later started a family. Lu Yao was born again.
Lu Yao grew up in such an environment. Later, Du Hui divorced Lu Baiquan and married Jian Hongfeng. She had to follow Du Hui and join Jian's family.
The relatives around me have long been torn apart by reality. Even the parents who are the closest to me at birth seem to be more than just me.
Come to think of it, her character of being cold on the outside and hot on the inside, always tense at first glance, vigilant and defensive, was also forced out by such a family environment.
This was not the first time that Ji Guanxin felt sorry for her. He had always seen her in a hedgehog state, but now that he saw her gentle and true side, and compared with her occasionally lost and worried eyes, it really stabbed his heart.
He and she were separated by a long table an arm's width apart, and he reached out to touch her head. Ji Guanxin said in a loud voice: "There is nothing to be afraid of. What other people do is their business. You don't need to blame other people's failures on us." There is no conflict between us. You didn’t cuckold me, and I didn’t cheat on my mistress. We won’t quarrel, let alone break up.”
Ji Guanxin said with a smile, he just wanted to make Lu Yao happy and make her feel relieved.
As a result, Lu Yao's heart skipped a beat. It is said to be inexplicable, but in fact it is also famous. She had liked Jian Chengli for so long before. Even if there was nothing wrong between them as Xu Yingjia said, would Ji Guanxin care if he knew about it
She had so vowed to confess to him before, but now, Lu Yao suddenly didn't have the confidence to say it. She was afraid that Ji Guanxin would care. Then wouldn't she be digging her own grave
Forget it, she will keep her distance from Jian Chengli in the future, and will not think about it randomly. She will just treat it as... it never happened.
Various grilled skewers, vegetables, scones and staple food were served one after another. The two of them had been riding bicycles all afternoon, and now they were really hungry. Lu Yao's mouth was full and she wished she could eat it all in one bite.
Ji Guanxin poured Lu Yao a small cup of beer from the draft beer cup. Lu Yao clinked glasses with him, said nothing, and raised her head to finish the job.
She wasn't much of a drinker, but having barbecue had to be paired with beer, not to mention she was in a good mood, so there was no reason not to drink. As a result, Lu Yao still overestimated her drinking capacity after drinking. She couldn't even raise her eyelids before finishing the meal.
Even so, when paying the bill, she still tried to push Ji Guanxin several times, insisting that she was the host.
Ji Guanxin smiled and asked her to give the money. The two of them went to stay at a nearby hotel. Ji Guanxin almost dragged her waist with one hand and carried her into the room.
Although Lu Yao was confused, she was still conscious. Ji Guanxin put her in the bathroom and helped her take off her shoes with a smile.
She squinted at him, Ji Guanxin supported her side with one arm, the warm yellow light illuminated his face like a jade, the corners of his lips were curled up, and there was a narrowing and undercurrent in his eyes. The other hand went to unbutton the shirt on her chest. The movement was neither urgent nor slow, more like it was a long night and he had plenty of time to spend with her.
Lu Yao looked at Ji Guanxin with blurred eyes, and suddenly turned to face him, buried her face in his chest, and put her arms around his waist.
Ji Guanxin also put his arm around her waist and said with a smile, "What are you doing?"
Lu Yao's muffled voice came from his chest, but he didn't hear it clearly. So he turned her flat and pressed her on her chest, looked at her with a smile and said, "What do you want to do?"
Lu Yao was lying in a strange hotel room, squinting her eyes slightly at the beautiful face in front of her, her pink lips opened, and she said, "Will you always like me?"
Ji Guanxin smiled and replied: "Yes."
She asked again: "No matter what I do wrong, you will never be angry with me?"
Ji Guanxin's expression didn't change, and he still replied to her with a smile: "How can I bear to be angry with you?"
Lu Yao said: "I remember."
"Well, remember it."
Ji Guanxin felt that drunk Lu Yao was very different from usual. Although she was gentle or coquettish towards him when she was sober, when she drank for a long time, she was more like a fox. She didn't even know how charming she was. Human fox.
He helped her take off her clothes and carried her to the bathroom to take a shower. The glass between the bathroom and the master bedroom was frosted, and Ji Guanxin didn't turn on the bathroom light, so there was only the warm yellow light coming from the bedroom.
Lu Yao's back was against the glass wall, with Ji Guanxin hanging in front of her. She only remembered that the water above her head was like a waterfall, and she had nowhere to hide. Her legs did not touch the ground, and she was like duckweed floating in the wind, letting Ji Guanxin push her.
Ji Guanxin has also been a 'vegetarian' for several years. Now that he is eating meat, he wishes he could have meat for several meals a day. When Lu Yao and Lu Yao went from the bathroom to the bedroom to have sex, Lu Yao drank too much, so she shouted wildly. Several times, Ji Guanxin heard the faint sound of banging on the wall next door. He just thought it was funny, so he lowered his head to kiss Lu Yao's lips, not because he was afraid of disturbing others, but because he was afraid that she would make her voice hoarse.
That night, she was hungover and indulged in sex. When Lu Yao woke up the next day, not only did her head feel heavy, but her whole body felt like it had been crushed by heavy objects. She was so sore that she couldn't lift it up.
Her throat was very dry. She reached for the mineral water on the table and accidentally looked down. There were two torn aluminum foil packets in the trash can next to the bed. They are all the ones Ji Guanxin used before.
Glancing at Ji Guanxin, who was sleeping between two pillows next to her, Lu Yao couldn't tell whether she should be angry or ashamed.
The room was covered with thick blackout curtains, but Lu Yao could still see the strong sunlight outside through the gaps. Sure enough, when she picked up her phone and looked, it was already past twelve o'clock in the morning.
She had several unread messages. When she opened them, she saw that they were from Xu Yingjia. There was news about Jian Chengli taking drugs, and the police had already come out to apologize, saying that the test results were wrong, and the matter was settled, and she was told not to worry anymore.
Lu Yao clicked on Weibo and took a look. Sure enough, the top searches today were all related to Jian Chengli.
He was caught taking drugs before, causing quite a stir. Unexpectedly, police staff now publicly confirmed that everything was a misunderstanding, and the police also fired and suspended the relevant people.
For a time, the focus of the media was all on Jian Chengli and Tiancheng Entertainment.
When Lu Yao saw Jian Chengli's picture on the Internet, she no longer had the worries she had in the past, but it couldn't be said to be calm. If she had to use one emotion to describe it, it could only be a mixed bag of emotions.
Once upon a time, she also thought about ending up with him.
But now, she just hopes that everything goes well for him and that when they meet again in the future, he is her brother and she is her sister. No matter who the woman standing next to him is in the future, she will smile and bless him, and sincerely hope that he can be happy.
