Chapter 8
Xia Zhining scratched at her somewhat messy hair, not knowing what was going on.
Lu Beiyi, what does she mean? Why is her brain circuit different from other people? Should she answer?
To be honest, Xia Zhining didn't want to have too much contact and contact with Lu Bei. After meeting again, she still felt strange when facing her.
She chooses to ignore it.
He continued to play his little dress-up game, but he didn't feel as happy as before, which was broken by a text message from Lu Bei one by one.
Five years later, she still couldn't ignore any of Lu Beiyi's actions, every look would make her care, and this feeling made her irritated.
After a while, the phone turned on again.
Xia Zhining silently told herself not to watch, and forced her attention to focus on the small game.
After 10 minutes passed, she couldn't hold back anymore, and she still couldn't help watching.
Lu Beiyi: Did you go to bed at eight o'clock?
Not only did she not sleep, but she was also working overtime here because of that bad interview.
Lu Beiyi: You used to stay up late in high school, but now you go to bed so early?
It was high school when she was in high school, and now, well, she is still used to staying up late, unless she is too tired from work, otherwise she can't fall asleep without playing with her mobile phone for a few hours.
Xia Zhining still didn't reply, she was lying on the table, wondering whether to block Lu Bei.
After hesitating for a long time, I couldn't do it. To put it bluntly, I didn't dare.
She didn't dare to black Lu Beiyi, and she couldn't explain the reason, but as long as she remembered her young face, she couldn't do it.
Half an hour later, Xia Zhining thought that she would ignore her and that Lu Beiyi would never send any more messages, until the phone rang, and it was an unfamiliar local number in S city.
As an entertainment reporter, she often receives such calls from strangers, and she directly connected without hesitation.
"Hi, hello, this is Nuansu Entertainment News, may I ask who you are?"
"Zhining, I'm Lu Beiyi."
A clear and clean voice came from the phone, and Xia Zhining almost threw the phone away.
"What's the matter?" Xia Zhining kept her tone as calm as possible.
"Why didn't you reply to my message? I've been waiting for a long time."
Hearing Lu Beiyi's voice seemed a little aggrieved, with a little milky voice that she was very familiar with, Xia Zhining thought for a moment that they hadn't broken up yet.She really couldn't imagine Lu Bei's expressionless face, waiting for her to reply with his mobile phone.
Must be cute.
Damn, what is she thinking.
"Lu Beiyi, please clarify your position, please, five years have passed." Xia Zhining told herself not to soften her heart, and she forced herself to make her voice tough.
"Didn't you say that we have become strangers, I want to contact you more and get to know each other again."
Lu Beiyi's serious tone made her unable to refute.
Lu Beiyi stood on the balcony, blowing the cold wind, looking at the night, but there was no response from the phone. She lowered her eyelids and said softly, "Xia Zhining, I'm sorry for you."
This understatement directly caused Xia Zhining's five-year defense line to collapse. At this moment, she really wanted to cry.
She really wanted to ask her why she left her, did she know how much she loved her back then, to the bone, and now thinking about it, her heart would ache.
"Lu Beiyi, I don't accept your apology..."
Xia Zhining's words were faintly crying, and Lu Bei's hand holding the guardrail showed veins: "Zhining, let's meet tomorrow, some things should be clear after all."
Xia Zhining's first reaction was that she finally wanted to explain why she left, and she agreed: "Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Xia Zhining lay on the table and cried for a long time.
When it was time to get off work, she didn't feel the joy of liberation, so she took a photo and sent it to Gu Nuan, closed the door of the newspaper office, and left the office building.
It's about nine o'clock in the evening, and the night in early autumn is getting colder. Xia Zhining has goosebumps on her fair and slender arms. She took a taxi back, and it cost her 70 yuan. There seemed to be more dark clouds above her head. a few flowers.
—
The next day, Xia Zhining asked for leave. The phone call yesterday took her a long time to get out of her depressed mood.
She turned on her phone and found yesterday's call records, and found that the phone number Lu Beiyi called was not her work phone number at all. At that time, she thought she was calling her work number, which was posted on their newspaper's official website.
How did she know about the private phone call?She knew that it was very easy for Lu Beiyi to know the phone number of a little Xiami like her, so it was hard for her not to think of her investigating herself.
To be honest, she resented the move.
Xia Zhining: How do you have my phone number?
Lu Beiyi had just finished an announcement and was on his way back to the apartment. When he saw Xia Zhining's unsolicited message, he guessed that she must be angry.
Lu Beiyi: I saw it in your Moments, and you said it was your new number.
Xia Zhining knew that she had misunderstood her. When Lu Bei said that she had seen her Moments, her first reaction was to feel ashamed.
The Moments of the mobile phone number were posted several months ago, so she must have seen those photos of herself, it is really embarrassing, what should I do if I suddenly don't want to go to the appointment in the afternoon?
Xia Zhining obediently went to the appointment, and even put on the new dress she bought last month, and dressed up carefully.
Now Lu Beiyi is a big star, standing there, no matter what he does is pleasing to the eye, that gentle and elegant temperament exudes from his bones.
And she, Xia Zhining, a social animal, doesn't matter what she wants, only her face and figure can be seen, she can't compare to Lu Beiyi in any way, but she must not lose too badly on a date with her ex-girlfriend.
No, why is it a date? It should be called a showdown.
She was actually quite afraid that Lu Beiyi would give an answer she didn't want, afraid that she would hear from her that she had never liked her.
Xia Zhining took the subway for nearly two hours before arriving at a high-end restaurant in the city center.
She had never been to such a place, let alone went in, except for a short stay. A meal might cost her two months' wages.
"Hello, I'm looking for Lu Beiyi." Xia Zhining said to the front desk, and then began to observe the surrounding environment.
High-end restaurants are different. The environment is not a bit better than ordinary restaurants. The small objects on the table are very delicate, and the chandelier is simply too beautiful.
"Are you Miss Xia?" the front desk asked.
Xia Zhining nodded, and her eyes stopped wandering.
You can't look like you've never seen the world.
"Miss Lu is in the VIP room on the third floor. When you reach the third floor, someone will take you in."
"Okay, thank you."
On the third floor, a waiter immediately asked her if she was Miss Xia, and with a very respectful look, after confirming her identity, she took her to the box where Lu Beiyi was.
She observed that this floor was very quiet, and there was no sound in the other boxes. Except for the waiter next to her, she didn't see anything else. She wondered if Lu Beiyi had reserved this floor.
There is a sofa in the box, and Lu Beiyi is sitting on it right now, her legs are crossed together, and the lines are very curved. She is wearing a white dress, which is very similar to the one she wore when she transferred to another school in her second year of high school.
As soon as Lu Bei heard the movement, he turned his head and saw Xia Zhining, a pair of Ruifeng eyes smiled, and his red lips slightly curled up: "Today is very beautiful."
Xia Zhining blushed shamefully because of this sentence.
"Miss Lu, do you want to serve food now?" The waiter asked at the door.
"No, I'll call you when it's time to go."
"Okay." The waiter closed the box door.
Lu Bei saw that she was not moving, and patted the seat beside him: "Come and sit."
Xia Zhining sat beside her, but there was a short distance away, the words that Lu Beiyi praised her for being beautiful still echoed in her mind, and suddenly he hesitated and said: "You...you are also very beautiful today."
Lu Bei laughed out loud, the laughter was sweet and pleasant.
Xia Zhining's consciousness is her own stupidity, the person just now is definitely not herself!
Lu Beiyi is a poisonous person, her ingenuity is completely dead when meeting her! !
"Thank you." Lu Bei stopped laughing, but the smile in his eyes didn't fade away at all.
"Lu Beiyi, why did you leave without saying goodbye and didn't hear from you at all?" Xia Zhining asked straight to the point.
No matter how much she was afraid of hearing the answer, instead of talking meaninglessly, some things were better to be faced earlier.
Lu Beiyi's black eyes suddenly lost their warmth, like obsidian soaked in water, icy cold.
Recalling that summer, a look of pain appeared between her brows, she didn't want to recall, and she didn't want to reveal the bloody scars to Xia Zhining.
"Sorry, I don't want to say why."
Xia Zhining couldn't understand seeing her suffering so much. After so long, would she die for a reason?
This lump had been in her heart for too long, and she finally mustered up the courage to stand in front of her, wanting to get rid of her.
She said she didn't want to?
"Always give me a reason, I've waited for you for so long..." A heart that was sincerely in love became cold little by little, without any warmth.
"I'm sorry for leaving at the beginning. I really don't want to say it." Lu Bei half closed his eyes, and his eyes seemed to have lost their color.
"Lu Beiyi, do you really like me?" Xia Zhining didn't expect that Lu Beiyi would give her such an answer. The words were spoken.
Lu Bei raised his eyelids and looked at her in disbelief: "Why do you ask such a question?"
"Leaving without saying a word, another person would think so. You are the flower of Gaoling, the goddess of the stars and the moon. The days with you are like a dream, but I am just a small shrimp. Maybe you are just It's just for fun, if you don't like it, just play and disappear!" Xia Zhining said all the angry words in one brain.
"Xia Zhining, I'm sure I like you, I liked you before, and I like you now, don't deny yourself, I like people not bad." Lu Beiyi really didn't expect her to think this way.
No one knew how important Xia Zhining was in her heart. She was the little sun above her head, the sunshine she couldn't live without.
Xia Zhining was taken aback, when Lu Bei said that she still likes herself?
"We've already broken up, don't talk about whether you like it or not." Xia Zhining didn't even know how she said this.
When Lu Beiyi refused to tell her the reason for leaving, her mood was as uncontrollable as a volcanic eruption, but now, hearing her confession, it was like blocking the eruption all at once.
A little overwhelmed.
