so be it

Chapter 96

The morning sun shines on the big beige bed.

Zhang Dongyan looked at the peaceful and peaceful sleeping face of the person beside him, his limp posture, with a bit of baby-like comfort.She stretched out her fingers to outline the cheeks of the sleeping person. Under the sun, her skin was almost transparent, and she could feel the tiny fluff on her face when she was so close. Zhang Dongyan thought it was very cute.Helping her pull the few strands of hair that covered her face behind her ears, and murmured: "My girl..." With a satisfied smile on his face, he couldn't help but leaned over and kissed her forehead, and moved to Coming down to kiss her eyes, Wu Chen, who was still in a dream, dodged and groaned timidly.

Zhang Dongyan looked at her girl with complicated emotions intertwined in his eyes.

Sometimes she can't understand Wu Chen.

Just like the person last night, so elegant and simple, completely subverted the eccentric look in her mind.It's hard to imagine that such a beautiful guzheng song would come from a punk girl who usually likes to listen to rock and roll.

What a contradiction.

It was this contradiction that brought a different impact that made me uncontrollably indulge last night.

Zhang Dongyan stroked the broken hair on her forehead, and couldn't help sighing for no reason.

The girl next to her looked simple and heartless, but she was sensitive and shrewd in her handling of things.

It seems that I don't fully understand her.

I don't know if it's the right choice to throw everything away and come to her side regardless of your own safety...

Regarding the future, although I have always held a positive and optimistic attitude, occasionally, there will be a moment of confusion lingering in my heart.

What I just want is a long time, what about the other party?

People, the older you are, the more you worry, and the more timid you are when things happen.

Maybe... Sometimes, Wang Yanyan's obsession with herself is justified.

How to spend happily in the two-person world of getting rid of the naughty kids?

It's long past the age when young couples hold hands crookedly and show their affection in various places, but it's still okay to go shopping and have a meal by the way!

After work this day, Shu Bi proposed to go shopping in Taihua City, and have dinner there as well.Wang Yanyan, who has gradually become a bit of a "wife and slave", naturally has no objection.

Because of Dr. Deng's initiative, Wang Yanyan's struggle became weaker and weaker.She liked Dr. Deng's close relatives from the bottom of her heart.

As a result, the relationship warmed up again and again, and the love became stronger and stronger.

It was still early, and the two of them were not in a hurry to eat, so they strolled slowly in the pedestrian street of the shopping mall.In fact, Shu Bi really wanted to hold hands with the big tree, but that piece of wood obviously had no sense of intimacy in this respect, which made her a little angry.However, walking with folded shoulders and occasionally taking the opportunity to hold an arm can still succeed.

Just when the book was secretly happy in his heart, an inappropriate voice sounded.

"Shu Bi!" A familiar voice came from behind.

Shu Zui turned around, "Ah, it's really you, I said I looked at the back image. Jian Ze still doesn't believe it." Yuan Feifei greeted her friend warmly when she met a friend while shopping.

A few people walked up to them, Shuzi smiled and said, "Why did you come out together?"

Jiang Jianze and Si Wenhui hadn't spoken yet, Yuan Feifei said quickly, "The three of us often come out to have a tooth festival, and I always wanted to call you, but you are always busy, and you can't even find anyone recently. I simply don't want to talk to you!" The tone was quite resentful.

"Yes, yes." Si Wenhui shifted her scrutinizing gaze from the person next to Shu Bi, and agreed.

Shuzi smiled, "It's not that you don't know my job, and you don't have a fixed point."

"Tch, don't make excuses! Just today, I just happened to meet you, hurry up and treat me, and we'll see how you perform." As he said that, he was about to kidnap someone and leave.

Shuzi looked at the big tree standing next to him, and Yuan Feifei suddenly said, "Ah, this is your friend, let's go together."

At this time, Wang Yanyan was embarrassed to be an air, "No, you go, I just have something to do. I'll go back now."

Jiang Jianze, who had been silent all this time, took a step forward, "If there is something to do, it's time for a meal. Let's go, it's just right to get together. I'm treating guests today, so I'll go to the taste of the sea in front, his small restaurant." Seafood is good."

They didn't know each other. Wang Yanyan was very uncomfortable and wanted to refuse, but Shubi grabbed her hand and held it tightly. She turned her head to read the book. went back.

Shubi responded, "Then Dashu and I will let you spend the money."

Pretending not to care about the clasped hands of the two, Jiang Jianze said with a stiff face, "Do you have to be so polite to me?"

Yuan Feifei came over to smooth things over: "What are you talking about? We've been friends for so many years! Jian Ze is the second generation of rich people. If we don't eat her, who will we eat! Let's go~!" Saying that, she still didn't forget to greet Wang Yanyan together.

Several people headed straight for the restaurant, Si Wenhui sighed silently: Today, there is no good feast...

"... Xijing cod, baked cod crab with cheese, steamed emerald grouper, geoduck in red soup, grilled abalone in tomato sauce, steamed swimming crab, Norwegian white salmon, fish-flavored Arctic shellfish..." Jiang Jianze hula hula's point Serving the food, Wang Yanyan frowned when he heard it—have you never heard of it before?After such a local tyrant's meal, how can I repay my favor?

After a while, Jiang Jianze finally "ordered" and enjoyed himself. After the waiter went down, he pretended to apologize: "Today is too hasty, next time the four of us will go to Emgrand to eat seafood. It is newly opened. I have been there several times before, and it is very convenient." Not bad. Their seafood is airlifted directly from North America, and many of them have never been seen here. The Buddha Jumping Wall is also authentic, and the meat is delicious and not greasy. You must try it.”

Not to mention the ostentatious gesture of showing off wealth, such a deliberate emphasis on the number of people made several people present look different.

Shuji paused for a moment, glanced at the big tree secretly, saw that she was concentrating on playing with her mobile phone, and breathed a sigh of relief.Then he glanced at Jiang Jianze slightly sideways, expressionless.

This was a warning glance, but it inexplicably aroused Jiang Jianze's deeper resentment, his heart became more and more angry, and he even wanted to make a fool of this disliked person.

Dishes were brought in one after another, Jiang Jianze wanted to order wine, but under the forceful stop of Shu Bi, they were all replaced with fruit and vegetable juices.

"If you don't want to drink, then don't drink it. How about I drink with Dashu?! It's the first time to sit together, so what if you don't drink some!" Jiang Jianze spoke to the book, but his eyes kept provocative Wang Yanyan.

Wang Yanyan didn't like drinking at all, and he completely refused at critical times, "I can't drink, I get drunk as soon as I drink it, and you don't want me to get drunk and make a fool of myself when I eat with everyone for the first time? Hehe."

No matter how much Jiang Jianze tried to persuade him, Wang Yanyan didn't let go, so he had to give up in the end.

After everyone started, the topic at the dinner table was still dominated by Jiang Jianze.

"Shuzi still remember that we went to Europe for a few summer vacations in the year after the college entrance examination. Feifei fell in love with a pair of shoes, and refused to leave. In the end, I bought them for a small price of [-] yuan. I didn't wear them when I came back. Several times."

Yuan Feifei said angrily: "I seem to be a prodigal when I say it. I don't know whose entire suitcase is filled with limited-edition car models."

"Speaking of which, we haven't gone out together for a long time. Some time ago, a friend went to Nanli Lake in Hainan. According to him, the scenery is beautiful and the lake is very beautiful. There are more than a dozen small islands and a large coconut grove inside. The most important thing is that there is a gliding field in the scenic area, which is the most famous gliding field in China. Hey, when I have time later, let the four of us go to play together. And I only played gliding twice when I was in school in Germany. Exciting, it's worth going to play." After finishing speaking, Jiang Jianze turned his head to Shubi, as if waiting for her to express his opinion.

"Four people" - once again such a special emphasis made the book frowned imperceptibly, and ignored Jiang Jianze's words.

Yuan Feifei is a "big player". As soon as she heard about paragliding, she was immediately interested. "Okay, that's a good idea. However, it was you who suggested that you should be responsible for the round-trip air tickets~"

Jiang Jianze was very generous, following Huang Bo's tone, he waved his hands and said, "This is not a big deal!"

"Then I won't have time until my school is on holiday." Si Wenhui echoed.

Jiang Jianze nodded, "No problem. How about you, Shubi?"

Shu Jie didn't answer her right away, but instead asked Wang Yanyan: "Does Dashu want to go play? Go to Hainan to go paragliding?"

——It seems that you were not invited by the "proposer", why are you asking me.

Wang Yanyan, who already clearly felt excluded, had no choice but to pretend to be stupid, "What are paragliders for? I have only seen umbrellas..."

Shuji was teased by her, and patted her coquettishly, then turned to Jiang Jianze and said, "I still don't catch that kind of extreme sports, you go and play."

Wang Yanyan took a deep look at her, but didn't say anything.

Jiang Jianze was very dissatisfied, she glared unabashedly at the person on the table who was an eyesore. "The tropical scenery there is also nice."

"I have been to Sanya a few times, and the tropical scenery is not very fresh. You should go. I still don't participate in the activities of your passionate youth. I prefer to stay at home."

—Stay at home with this potato!

Jiang Jianze's eye knife was about to poke the person's body to pieces.But Wang Yanyan attacked the plate of chili fried bird shells in front of her without winking.

After a while, while the other three were talking, Wang Yanyan leaned closer to the book, and asked in a low voice, "Are these all your good friends?"

Shu Bi was stunned for a moment, not understanding Dashu's intention of asking this question, but he nodded without concealing it, "Junior high school, high school classmates. There are quite a few people who come back to work after graduating from university, but we are the only ones who get along well."

Wang Yanyan sighed: "That's more than ten years of friendship." Then, she turned around, lowered her head, and concentrated on eating the grilled abalone in tomato sauce that was put on the plate for her.

Shu Zui was still thinking about the tricky matter of how to make the three friends on the table get along with Dashu harmoniously.He didn't pay too much attention to Dashu's thoughts.

……

"The grouper in this restaurant is under the guise of being wild, but in fact it is all artificially raised, and the taste is still incomparable with wild ones. There are also many things called "caviar" on the menu. Strictly speaking, It's not really caviar at all. Those things could be from roundfin, salmon, whitefish, cod, or whatever. But in France, the definition of caviar is very precise and strict: only the roe of sturgeon qualifies It becomes caviar. However, due to overfishing and pollution, there are not many sturgeons left. Therefore, the production of authentic caviar is very small, and it is very expensive. The caviar of this company is so cheap, I don’t think it is authentic.”

In the magnificent private room, above the huge revolving dining table, there is a crystal European-style chandelier, which is full of luxury.At the table, Jiang Jianze talked eloquently, while the waiter beside him curled his lips white and blue.

Wang Yanyan ate silently, but his mind was gradually not on the food in his mouth...

"Hey, Dashu. How many brothers and sisters are there in your family?" Seeing someone's distraction, Jiang Jianze asked casually.

Wang Yanyan came back to his senses, thought about her question, and felt something was wrong.But he didn't delve into it, so he replied honestly: "I am the only child in our family."

"Ah? Just one? Don't you rural people think that the more children you have, the better. Why do you have only one child in your family?"

Jiang Jianze's words made Shuzi's heart skip a beat, and his eyes became dark.He took a deep and meaningful look at Jiang Jianze.

"You rural people"—let Wang Yanyan finally understand what is going on with those gaps that were vaguely there just now...

Heh, - this person...seems~seems~probably~targeting himself?

Wang Yanyan frowned, then let go, and said with a smile: "My parents are more open-minded."

"That's right." Jiang Jianze raised his eyebrows, as if he didn't want to go further into this topic.But he said casually: "I heard that there are still some rural areas that don't even have electricity. I really don't know how they live! People nowadays can't live without their mobile phones."

Wang Yanyan didn't respond, he took a geoduck clam and chewed it slowly.

"Hey, Dashu, don't just eat the dishes in front of you, try this steamed crab. This season, crabs are still very good." Jiang Jianze graciously turned the steamed crab that had just been served to Wang Yanyan.

Wang Yanyan smiled, but didn't go to eat it.

"Ah, don't you know how to eat?" Jiang Jianze suddenly realized, "It doesn't matter. Many people don't know how to use these tools when they eat for the first time. I heard that in Shanghai, the mother-in-law chooses the son-in-law, First we need to see if his skill in eating hairy crabs is authentic."

Wang Yanyan lowered his head attentively, and quietly picked up the abalone on his plate that he hadn't finished eating for a long time with his chopsticks.

At first, he could face the provocation calmly, but after a few times, his cheeks gradually became uncontrollably tight.

Shu Zui was a little annoyed, glared at Jiang Jianze, and said nothing.He only sighed secretly in his heart: It seems that it is impossible for her to get along well with Dashu, and he is also forcing it.Not only wronged Dashu, but also made each other unhappy.Then forget it.

Yuan Feifei knew very well that Jian Ze's "unreasonable" remarks were aimed at that big tree.Those obvious showing off of wealth and ignorance of the current rural situation are actually belittling in disguise.What Jian Ze did was too exaggerated, anyone with a brain can see it.She couldn't help observing Shu Bi's expression from the corner of her eyes.

Just from Shu Bi's frown gradually tightening, it is clear that she is not happy anymore.However, this unhappiness is only in the heart.This is where the alienation begins...

When I first met Shubi when I was a student, I felt that Shubi was a good student who was very kind, gentle, and easy to get along with.After staying together for a long time, I realized that she is actually a bit indifferent, and she really doesn't like to communicate with others. Whether it is ordinary classmates or good friends, it is difficult to find even a small place in her heart.At that time, it took a lot of effort and time for me and Jian Ze to get closer to her.

However, Shuji's attitude towards this big tree today reminded her of Liu Qingqing a few years ago.At that time, Shuji's love for Liu Qingqing was exactly the same as it is now.

From this point of view, Jian Ze might have to fetch water from a bamboo basket again this time.

Yuan Feifei was weighing in her heart, whether it is better to hold Jian Ze and let her stop as soon as possible, or let her develop, and see how the big tree will behave, and how well Shubi will protect her?

Si Wenhui didn't need to be entangled with each other, she already knew something about it before, so she couldn't help but wink at Jiang Jianze, telling her not to anger Shuzhi.After all, we are all friends, and we will always keep in touch in the future.

However, Jiang Jianze took her warning as air.That nonchalant look made Si Wenhui grit his teeth angrily!

Even a good meal can be unsettling!

Wang Yanyan finally finished eating the abalone, and raised his head to face Jiang Jianze.

Jiang Jianze thought she was going to say something to him, did she finally become angry from embarrassment!snort!The waiting is now.

However, the potato suddenly heaved a sigh of relief, and immediately withdrew his tense momentum, turned his head and said something to Shu Bi, and then left the private room.

After she left, Shuzi slowly wiped his hands with a wet towel, and said to Jiang Jianze with no expression on his face: "It seems that the meal you invited to eat is really not easy to eat." Before Jiang Jianze could speak, He got up and said to the other two, "I'm going to the bathroom."

The bathroom door.Just as Wang Yanyan came out, Shujie immediately took a step forward, touched her hand lightly with his fingertips, and was about to speak.

Wang Yanyan raised his hand and glanced at his mobile phone as if unintentionally, avoiding the touch of the book, and said in a very polite tone: "I'm already full. It's getting late, I'll go back first if I have nothing to do. You Thank your friend for the hospitality for me."

Shu Zui looked at her silently, not knowing what to say for a moment.It's my own fault to say anything, knowing that Jiang Jianze is a very conceited and self-willed guy, and knowing that Jiang Jianze might not get along with her peacefully, he still forced her to go to dinner with him.Shu Zui blamed himself very much.If it wasn't for the big tree following him, there wouldn't be the embarrassment he had to endure at the dinner table today.

Even if you did it yourself without consideration... are you going to leave me alone?

Looking at the back of Dashu who had already walked three or four steps away, feeling a little sad mixed with loss, Shu Bi called out rather unwillingly, "Dashu."

Wang Yanyan froze, sighed, stabilized his emotions, turned around and said, "You should go back early, it will be cold at night. Just now Dong Yan said that he had something to do with me. I will go to her place to see... In the past few days I'm not going home." After finishing speaking, he turned and walked out.

Therefore, she didn't see Shuzi's pale face for a moment. ——Not going back to live?Is this a tactful way to tell me not to look for you?

You are going to...

Shuzu stood in the corridor in a daze, unable to move for a while.

……

The big tree left the private room, and it seemed that he would not come back.I thought that Shuzhi would follow suit, or come back and get angry at Jiang Jianze.Even Jiang Jianze thought so too.

So, even though she put on an indifferent look on her face, she was still a little uneasy.Still, even if disturbed, she never regrets doing so.She insisted that such a person who looks like a potato just picked out of the field does not fit in with her small circle of people at all!She would never allow Shuzi to be with her in such a wronged way!She just wanted to let this person see the difference clearly!Don't be delusional!

In the private room, Jiang Jianze was still dismantling a large crab with his delicate pincers seemingly calmly, as if he was not affected by what happened just now.

Yuan Feifei looked at her helplessly.I was still thinking about how to persuade her to give up.

Si Wenhui couldn't hold back anymore. "Jianze, you're so rude, do you know that? No matter how much you don't like her, you shouldn't be able to let people down like this. You have tolerated you since you haven't seen anyone. You have said too much a few times and no one has said anything. From this point of view alone, you are very disrespectful! Besides, this is her own choice, as a friend, we can only respect it. She knows how well her life is going! You are like this..."

Jiang Jianze got impatient, threw the small pliers in his hand on the table, pulled his face and said: "I only know that the bystanders are the best! If you say that we all know it's inappropriate, seeing her insists on going our own way, as friends, we don't want to see her." Shouldn't you be trying to persuade me?!"

Who is it that insists on going its own way?Si Wenhui was a little annoyed, so she stopped suppressing what was on her mind. "Do you dare to say that you only did this because you thought they were inappropriate? Not because of your little thoughts?!"

Jiang Jianze's face darkened, and he was about to argue, but Yuan Feifei held his arm, "What am I..."

The door of the private room opened suddenly.Shu Zui walked in with a blank expression on his face.

The three people who were sitting did not move for a while, all three pairs of eyes were fixed on the book that Fu entered the private room again, with different thoughts.

But Shuzi sat down without expression, picked up the chopsticks, as if nothing happened, and greeted: "You guys continue to eat, Dashu has something to go first. Let's continue to eat ours."

Jiang Jianze stared at her face, trying to see something from it, but it was in vain.She turned her head and asked Yuan Feifei with her eyes.Yuan Feifei shook her head lightly, then picked up the chopsticks.

The four of them chatted a few words in a neutral manner, and the meal was finished after all.

Except for the book, the other three were wondering, is this the end?

The meal was finished, so what happened just now passed away so calmly?

Shu Bi, who was holding a wet towel to wipe her hands with a calm expression, resolved the doubts of the three of them in time. She folded the towel and put it down, and said slowly: "Thank you for today, let Jian Ze spend a lot of money."

Jiang Jianze was about to answer the conversation in trepidation, but he saw that Shuzi didn't look at him, but just stared at the plate in the middle of the round table, with a cold expression on his face.Suddenly she couldn't utter those intimate words, and slowly swallowed them back.

Shuzi supported his head with his hands, and put his fingertips together between his brows, looking very tired.

"We just met today, so I thought, it's good to meet with friends and get to know each other. As for the big tree, I don't want to hide it. This is my decision. I bring it to everyone, not to ask for it. Opinion. You have to understand this. Friends are for my own good, I understand, but there are some things that you really know yourself."

Shuji paused, then continued, "At the beginning, Dashu asked me if I was good friends with you, and I said yes, and we have been friends for more than ten years. She didn't say anything, and I just figured it out now, why did she You have to ask. Because I said it was a friendship of more than ten years, so she endured and endured, retreating and retreating. Just because I said...she is really nice. Therefore, I really hope that my friend can I get along well with her, and things like this will never happen again today. If...it's really difficult, I can only make a choice..." Shu Bi finished speaking every word, and gave Jiang Jianze a faint look.

This glance made Jiang Jianze's heart skip a beat.

Yuan Feifei hurried out to smooth things over. "Ah, don't think that way. Friends only come out after being together for a long time. Isn't today the first time we get together! I haven't figured out my temper. I will set up another place later, and we will get together and get familiar with each other. Familiarity means closeness. I haven't met a friend that Yuan Feifei can't get along with..."

After finishing speaking, he squeezed Jiang Jianze hard.

Jiang Jianze didn't give her face to go along with her, but just opened his mouth.

The original calculation in my heart has come to nothing, so what's the point of talking about it.

Shubi picked up his bag and sighed softly: "Well, let's talk about it later. Then let's stop here today."

……

Wang Yanyan put his hands in his pockets and walked slowly along the street.In other words, it's wandering -- wandering without a goal, without an end... She just wants to go on step by step like this, until she is exhausted, until the depression in her heart is gone, until she is no longer hot-headed !

Yes.I have been really hot-headed for a while.Sinking in groggyly, without realizing it.It wasn't until he was awakened by the bloody slap that he realized that he was going to struggle to get out of his body, but he could only... as if tearing off a layer of flesh!

Fawu on the side of the road has long since lost its leaves, and the shadows of bare/naked branches are nailed to the ground by street lamps, like the claws of devils with teeth and claws.

The temperature at night dropped sharply, and the cold wind was blowing down his neck. Wang Yanyan raised his head silently, looking at the bustling crowd on the street, and those laughing people...

She suddenly had a feeling of sadness—at this time, in this city where she was dying, she didn't know how long she would stay here, what kind of people she would meet, and what kind of memories she would leave behind...

Or, no matter how lively and prosperous it is, it has nothing to do with me, because I am just a passerby.
