Ruan Yu and Xu Huaisong also stepped out of the elevator.

She came to the hotel just for Lu Shenglan, and she achieved her goal, so she proposed to go home under the pretext of "I'm a bit sleepy, so I won't go up".

She didn't intend to really enter Xu Huaisong's room. This time her mentality was too different. It was less than four hours before his suspected confession, and she would be so panicked that her heart stopped beating when she delivered it to her door so quickly.

Xu Huaisong didn't force it: "Then I'll go up and put things first."

"Your car is not here, go back and rest, don't see me off."

"I mean," he suddenly became playful, and said with a half-smile, "Go up and put things first, and then rest."

Ruan Yu was stunned for a while, and said "hehe" with a smirk: "Then lawyer Xu, goodbye, I will ask you to drive your car to the hotel."

This estranged title and arrangement, I really know how to retaliate. He coughed lowly: "Just kidding, you wait for me in the lobby for five minutes."

Ruan Yu didn't buy it anymore: "No, five minutes is enough for me to get a taxi."

"Then I won't go up," he said with a helpless look in his eyes, "Go."

"Okay," she seemed to feel better now, "you'd better feed the cat first, I'm in the lobby."

Xu Huaisong glanced at her, turned his head and pressed the elevator, and then looked back at her, probably to confirm that she was not duplicity.

Appropriate "doing" is called fun, but "doing" too much will overdraw the emotion.

Ruan Yu understood, and when he heard the elevator "ding", he nuzzled his chin and gestured for him to go.

Recalling his eyes before leaving, the moment the elevator door closed, her tightly pursed lips moved up a little bit, and finally walked to the rest area with a smirk, and sat down on the sofa.

The magnificent ceiling lights in the lobby illuminated brightly on all sides. There were not many people coming and going at this time. After sitting for a while, she saw two cleaning staff pushing a cart of cleaning tools passing by her.

One of them explained to the other: "The bed sheets of the guests in room 1922 are still not changed, don't make a mistake."

Ruan Yu was taken aback.

1922, isn't that Xu Huaisong's room number? Why not change the sheets

In just one sentence, two cleaners had already passed by her, and they couldn't hear the words any further.

She stepped forward quickly, followed behind them pretending to be on the same road, and then heard another answer smoothly: "It's been three days..."

Ruan Yu never heard what else the two said.

Because she had stopped, there was a rumble in her head.

Three days ago, she slept in that quilt.

After being sent home by Xu Huaisong, Ruan Yu went to bed alone wondering.

Calm down and think about it, even she is reluctant to change the sheets she slept in for a night, not to mention whether this idiotic behavior is Xu Huaisong's style, judging from this, he should have liked her long ago.

When did that start? Until that night at the hotel, he didn't seem to have made any obvious announcements.

Ruan Yu took a shower, and because she was not full of porridge, she opened the "Midsummer White Lotus" that she brought home as a supper, and ate with one chopstick, while scrolling through Moments on the phone.

Swipe down to refresh, and saw an article written by Liu Mao a minute ago: "The same lawyer, why is there such a big difference?"

A picture is attached below, which is a comparison of the two schedules. The one on the left is densely packed, and the one on the right has only two work schedules for tomorrow and this Saturday. Among them, the column for Saturday shows that there is an important video conference from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm.

Ruan Yu cheered up. Teacher He's birthday party is at noon on Saturday. Could it be that the schedule on the right happens to be Xu Huaisong's

She left a message below: "There are two work plans in a week, where is the fairy lawyer?"

Zhikun Liumao: "We are lawyer Xu."

Ruan Yu put down his chopsticks, and excitedly called Qu Lan back: "Mom, I'll be there on Saturday, you and Dad will wait for me at home, we'll take an online car-hailing service, and we won't go to the high-speed rail station on weekends to avoid crowds. "

Qu Lan responded with a voice.

After hanging up the phone, Ruan Yu hummed a song and cleaned up the dishes. He turned on the TV and tuned to CCTV5 to watch the World Cup. He was in a good mood and posted a circle of friends: "Green tea with the World Cup, stay healthy while staying up late. [OK]"

The accompanying picture is the cup of "passionate green tea" on the coffee table and the wall-mounted TV in the background.

Xu Huaisong replied in seconds: "Where's Bai Lian?"

Ruan Yu glanced at the set meal that he had eaten up, and said without blushing, "I can't eat any more, it's in the refrigerator."

Xu Huaisong: "Then I'll have breakfast tomorrow."

"..." Is it too late for her to go to the hotel and order another "Midsummer White Lotus"

Ruan Yu swallowed a mouthful of green tea with difficulty, and suddenly saw Liu Mao stepping in, and replied to Xu Huaisong, "Take me one?"

Xu Huaisong: "Well, sleep."

The implication is to dream.

Ruan Yu almost burst into tears from laughter, wiped his eyes, and saw the next comment in an instant.

Zhou Jun, her old class monitor in high school, replied: "What's going on? [Doubtful]"

It seemed to refer to the "situation" between her and Xu Huaisong.

Ruan Yu realized later: Could it be that besides Liu Mao, she and Xu Huaisong have mutual friends

That's right, when the two classes went on a graduation trip together, as the monitor of the event organizer, he may have added everyone's WeChat.

Oops.

She quickly deleted this circle of friends, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

But as soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, he found it was useless.

Even if the circle of friends is deleted, Xu Huaisong will still receive a notification from Zhou Jun to reply to her.

Sure enough, the next second, Xu Huaisong sent a message: "Do you know Zhou Jun?"

To say or not to say

Ruan Yu paced back and forth in the room, and made a decision: When it's all over, just say half of it, if Xu Huaisong presses on, she will roll up her sleeves and "tell the truth."

She said, "I used to live in the same area of Suzhou City. You also know him? I heard from Lawyer Liu that your grandmother's house seems to be in the southern area as well."

Xu Huaisong: "Well, go to bed early after watching the game. I was joking just now, I have work arrangements tomorrow morning, so don't wait for me."

that's all

Ruan Yu lightly "hissed" and was enjoying himself when he suddenly tasted an unusual taste from the green tea in the cup.

A man who refused to let go of even the quilt she slept on, actually behaved so lightly towards her male friends? Isn't he very fierce to Liu Mao

On the TV screen, the player shoots a goal. Ruan Yu's head also seemed to have been pressed by a switch, and he suddenly became enlightened.

She opened Liu Mao's circle of friends about the schedule and read it again.

Why did Liu Mao "unintentionally" help her make the decision to "go" when she was hesitating whether to go to the birthday party

This is too coincidental.

However, Liu Mao himself would not do this on purpose, because he did not know of Teacher He's existence at all, unless all of this was ordered by the only insider—Xu Huaisong.

So how did Xu Huaisong know that she was also invited? ——That is to say, he may already know that she is a student of Mr. He and his alumni.

But in this case, why didn't he directly confront her, but used this roundabout way to lure her to attend the birthday party

He seemed very clear that she didn't want to go because he might go, and because she was worried that the novel would be exposed.

It is speculated here that the answer is ready to come out.

Fans cheered wildly from the TV, but in Ruan Yu's world, all the screams and celebrations became distant background sounds.

She covered her mouth in surprise, and after a while, she said to herself: "Could it be that I... have fallen off the horse long ago?"

On Saturday, Ruan Yu took his parents to Suzhou City as planned.

In the past few days, she made many assumptions about Xu Huaisong, and finally found that all the assumptions were meaningless. The place where she could really find the answer was the birthday party.

If he had appeared at the banquet on the grounds that "the work plan has changed temporarily", then she thought, there would not be so many coincidences in the world. He should have known that he was the heroine of her novel a long time ago. Shrinking his head like a turtle, he deliberately lured her to go.

But if he didn't show up, then all of this is just her nonsense.

At 11:30 noon, the online car-hailing car arrived in Su City. At the entrance of the hotel, Ruan Yu got out of the car with his parents, and immediately looked at the nearby parking lot.

I didn't see Xu Huaisong's car.

Ruan Chengru glanced at her: "Seeing that you have been absent-minded all the way, you just look around, what are you looking at?"

Ruan Yu smiled "hehe" and said, "I'm investigating the enemy's situation to protect the safety of you and Mom." Then he took Qu Lan's hand, "Let's go up."

The family of three arrived at He Chongding's banquet hall under the guidance of the waiter.

Because they came from Hangzhou, the three of them arrived relatively late, and the banquet hall with more than twenty tables was already full of people, and the meal hadn't started yet, so they got together in twos and threes to catch up and chat.

Many people talked around He Chong.

Ruan Yu's eyes snapped like machine guns.

Confirm that there are no targets.

She let out a breath.

Let's see who she thinks Xu Huaisong is. Thinking about his two days, he never lost his energy to "good morning", "good afternoon" and "good night" with her. If he really knew the truth early, how could he watch her jumping up and down acting like watching a monkey

Human nature is not so sinister and despicable.

Ruan Yu followed his parents to greet Teacher He.

After meeting each other, Ruan Chengru and Qu Lan were dragged by He Chong to talk to a group of old colleagues, but she suddenly heard a voice behind her: "Ruan Yu?"

She turned her head and found the old class leader Zhou Jun standing not far away. Seeing her looking over, she said pleasantly, "Hi, that's true! I guess I might run into you today!"

He stepped forward and said, "Long time no see, you said you didn't come to the class reunion last year, but this time you are willing to honor Mr. He, it's not interesting!"

Ruan Yu greeted him with a smile: "It happened to be busy at that time, so I will definitely come next time when I have time."

"Are you still in Hangzhou?"

"Yes, I came here on purpose today."

"So..." Zhou Jun's tone was filled with gossip, "Xu Huaisong is also in Hangzhou?"

Ruan Yu choked and nodded.

Zhou Jun was immediately excited, and said in a low voice, "I am going to gossip on behalf of all the students in Class 9 and Class 10 of the 10th session. What are you two?"

Ruan Yu smiled "hehe".

She and Xu Huaisong haven't made up their minds yet, and if it involves a relationship between a man and a woman, how can the woman make a conclusion and announce it first

She stroked her bangs, turned her head away with a smile, and was about to prevaricate with a vague explanation, when her eyes passed over the door of the banquet hall, she suddenly saw a familiar figure.

Ruan Yu's smile froze immediately.

Zhou Jun was taken aback, and followed her to look over: "Hey, isn't this Xu Huaisong! Why didn't you two come together?"

The voice was not low, and it immediately attracted Xu Huaisong's attention.

He looked over, made eye contact with the dull Ruan Yu, then frowned, seemingly puzzled, and asked, "Why are you here?"

Why is she here? Does he really have no idea

Ruan Yu slowly raised his eyes to look at him: "I came to the high school teacher's birthday party, why did you come too?"

Xu Huaisong narrowed his eyes slightly: "Me too."

Zhou Jun was at a loss, and interjected: "What's the matter, after a long time, you two don't know that you are alumni?"

Neither of them spoke.

He stroked the back of his head, with a bewildered expression on his face, and gestured: "Come on, let me introduce you, Xu Huaisong from class 10 of the 10th class, and Ruan Yu from class 9."

Ruan Yu smiled and restrained the small volcano that was about to erupt in his heart, and said, "This is too coincidental...!" Then he glanced at Xu Huaisong, who also looked a little surprised, and made the last confirmation, "Oh, but you today Isn't there a meeting?"

He explained calmly: "The work plan has changed temporarily, so I'm here."

Sure enough, this is the "reason".

Ruan Yu was almost deceived by his flawless acting skills, but the scenes from the past are now appearing in front of his eyes in turn.

Xu Huaisong asked knowingly, "How do you know I'm from Suzhou"; Xu Huaisong "coincidentally" came to the cafeteria of No. 1 Middle School, "coincidentally" asked Liu Mao to pick up her mother, "coincidentally" looked like a hero in the heavy rain The appearance of saving her; the appearance of Xu Huaisong pretending to be sick in the hospital ward and forcing her to read Xiao Huangwen...

The high-cold male god who has been secretly in love for many years is actually this kind of duplicity and scheming person

Why did she not find out about it before after so many years of affection

Ruan Yu felt like he was about to cry.

The tears that are about to flow in my eyes now are the water in my head when I was lying on the railing outside the classroom and peeping at him like a nympho.

I thought that I fell in love with the elegant and noble Hua Zelei, but in my heart I was still a naive Daoming Si!

In her silence, Xu Huaisong blinked lightly, calm and composed as always: "What's wrong?"

Ruan Yu took a breath and looked down at his shoes.

Also "what's wrong"? She wanted to use these seven centimeter stiletto heels to step on his shiny leather shoes!
