Chapter 39 He really still misses him

Make an appointment with Gu Ying at a Japanese food store with a good environment. In the box, I took out the engagement ring that Sang Zhengbai gave me.

She looked at it for a while and took it in her hand: "My parents also asked about it a few days ago. It seems that they have communicated in private." With a sigh, she put the ring box back on the table and slowly pushed it back to me aside.

"What are you going to do?" I asked.

Gu Ying tapped the table with her fingertips in turn, and thought for a moment, "What do you think of getting engaged first, and then canceling the engagement after a year or so?"

"It's up to you to propose at that time, and it's up to you to regret the marriage." In this way, Sang Zhengbai can't blame me. I can still use the unhealed relationship as an excuse to reject the blind date he may arrange for me later.

Gu Ying nodded: "OK, that's it."

After the matter was finalized, she did not ask for my ring, saying that it was of great significance after all, representing the unswerving love between my parents, she could not blaspheme, and hoped that I could give it to someone who truly deserves it in the future.

Someone really worth it?

The figure of Ji Chenfeng flashed in my mind. Strictly speaking, he should be the real heir of this pair of rings. I am just an impostor and a cunning thief.

"Then find some time to choose a ring together." I suggested putting the red ring box in my pocket.

Hearing this, Gu Ying showed a sarcastic smile on her face, raised her drink cup and saluted me: "It's hard work."

Silently touching her cup, I didn't have much to say, and drank the slightly astringent tea soup in one gulp.

Driving to Ji Chenfeng's house, he didn't want to climb the stairs and was afraid that the car window would be smashed again, so he called Ji Chenfeng to get down.

With my hands in my coat pockets and my back against the door, I patiently waited for him by the side of the road. The exhaled breath turned into white mist in an instant, the weather was getting colder and colder, and I wondered if it would snow this year.

Look up at the tangled wires above the City of Flies, and the sky cut to pieces. The moon is missing, the stars are dim, and tomorrow will be another bad day.

Hearing footsteps in my ears, I turned my eyes to the top of the steps, and Ji Chenfeng stepped out of the dark night and walked into the dim streetlight that was better than nothing. In an instant, it seemed that even the dark path was brightened a bit by him.

There is a kind of person who doesn't need to work hard to show his existence, and can grab everyone's attention by just standing there casually. There is some sourness in my heart, it can't be said to be jealous or envious. If he hadn't been replaced, he should have done better than me.

"Why don't you wait in the car?" Ji Chenfeng slowly walked towards me, talking, and put his warm palm against my face.

So warm.

I had been numb for a long time, and I didn't feel anything. Once I was touched by him, I found out that I was so cold after a comparison.

"I want to see you sooner." Pulling off his hand and pulling gently, I snuggled up to him and hugged him beside the car.

"What's wrong?" Ji Chenfeng was keenly aware of the strangeness of my emotions.

"I just feel... a little tired." I buried my face in his neck and muttered.

The cold air diluted Ji Chenfeng's aura, and he had to smell it hard to smell the faint scent of soap. I used to think this smell was cheap and tacky, but now I'm used to it, and I can even smell the front, middle and back notes.

It's like now, he should have just taken a shower, got close to his skin, and even smelled something like sunlight...

"Have you just finished entertaining?"

My eyes were slightly closed, and I lazily dragged out a long "um" sound, leaning on him and refusing to get up.

"Sang Nian, on your body..." Ji Chenfeng closed his arms a little bit, and Ji Chenfeng was only halfway through his words when he was interrupted by my huge bowel sounds.

I opened my eyes abruptly, cursed and pressed my stomach, not daring to look up at Ji Chenfeng's expression.

I don’t really care about Japanese food, and Gu Ying and Gu Ying are not in a relationship where they can sit and have a happy meal together. They negotiated cooperation, ate two bites in a hurry and went their separate ways, and ate a box of quinoa salad at noon. , it is inevitable to be hungry now.

"Hungry?" Ji Chenfeng backed away.

I lowered my head, and my face was a little hot: "I didn't eat much at night, it's fine, I'll just go back and order takeout by myself."

Anyway, now that have moved, it is not far from Ji Chenfeng's place, and it only takes ten minutes to drive back.

"That will take a long time." Ji Chenfeng took my hand, looked around, and finally chose a direction and said, "There is a noodle restaurant nearby, it should still be open, let's eat that."

The noodle restaurant opened in the city of flies, you don't have to think about it, you know it's the kind of flies restaurant. The chef threw the noodles into the pot empty-handed, and while talking loudly, the noodles were cooked, and when they were cooked, he added various indistinct toppings, and inserted his thumb into the noodle soup to serve. started to feel uncomfortable without eating, so might as well go back and eat instant noodles.

However, before I declined, Ji Chenfeng had already pulled me along the path.

The wind slashed his face and gave me a headache. He took my hand and stuffed it into his coat pocket, staring intently at the road beneath his feet, trudging slowly up the slightly sloping slope.

I followed him step by step, always a step or so away from him, staring at his broad shoulders, red earlobes from the cold, and the white breath between his lips and teeth. If he refused, I swallowed it.

"Taotie Noodle House", the name is big, but the actual space is very small. Pushing the door in, there are only five seats, all in front of the board, and there is not even a decent table. The environment is not dirty, but messy.

There is no menu in the store, and everything is marked on the blackboard that you can see when you look up. Because the spicy pork noodles are marked with "signboard", I ordered the spicy pork noodles. The coat hangs on the wall at the back, and there is a small TV in the store, which is playing a TV series of an unknown year.

There was only one old couple in the store, they looked to be in their 60s or 70s, their hair was gray, and their backs were no longer straight.

"Xiao Ji, I haven't seen you for a long time." The old woman served hot tea with a kind face, and seemed to be familiar with Ji Chenfeng and Yan Shanhua, "How is your mother recently? I heard that she is very ill, are you alright? "

Ji Chenfeng shook his head, didn't say much, just told them that it was under control for now, and there was no need to worry for the time being.

"Just keep it under control. Your mother is too hard. A woman has to take care of her paralyzed husband and take care of such a small child. Although there are many people here, there are really not many people who have persevered like her." She is like a hundred Xiaosheng in the city of flies, nothing can escape her eyes and ears, "Don't say anything from afar, but close by, Cheng Tao's mother, after taking care of him for a year, she will die, and she runs away with others and doesn't care anymore. After my husband and children..."

In the eyes of outsiders, Yan Shanhua is tenacious and diligent, never abandoning her husband, and nurturing her children well, so she could be awarded the "Top Ten Bright Women in the City of Flies" medal. No one knew how filthy inside was hidden under her bright and great appearance, and no one doubted that the child she raised with care was not her child.

If Cheng Tao's mother should be condemned, she should be tied to thorns, wailing in pain and being cast aside by thousands of people, and repaying the evil debt she made.

"Okay, don't talk about all this, bring me the bowl." The old man couldn't listen to his wife's gossip, and interrupted rudely, "Every day I tell people what to do, I'm too full, right? ?"

The old woman pouted and mumbled something, then turned around and went to the cupboard to get a bowl.

After a while, the face came. I don’t know if it’s just so good, or it’s because I was brought by Ji Chenfeng. When a bowl of noodles came, half of it was full of ingredients, and a marinated egg was specially added.

Ji Chenfeng broke his chopsticks and handed it to me: "Mother-in-law's noodles are made by themselves every morning. They are different from those made by machines. You can try them."

Under the earnest staring of three pairs of eyes, he sighed for the first time.

The noodles are chewy, the noodle soup is delicious, the spicy meat is not salty or bland, and it goes well with the noodles. After the first bite, the empty stomach tasted the sweetness, and became more and more hungry. The chopsticks never stopped, and after a while, the noodle bowl was brought up, and Gululu even drank the soup.

"I'll just say my noodles are delicious." The old woman smiled happily, "Xiao Ji, bring your friends here often."

Ji Chenfeng smiled and pulled a tissue in his hand, looking to press it against my lips, he stopped when he met my stunned eyes, and seemed to remember that it was outside, we just " friend".

"Thank you..." I naturally took a tissue from his hand and wiped my mouth.

From the gluttonous noodle restaurant, we slowly walked back to the parking place. When parting, they turned around, he walked up the steps, and I walked to the driver's seat.

"Sang Nian..."

Across the car, he looked up at Ji Chenfeng. With his hands in his pockets, he stood under the depressing and winding steps across the road, looking at me with complicated eyes.

"You wouldn't lie to me, would you?"

The muscles that control the hand contract suddenly, causing the fingers gripping the door to twitch unreasonably.

I lowered my hand, loosened my fingers, and then grasped it tightly. Across the car, I raised the corners of my lips to Ji Chenfeng: "Of course. Why do you ask this all of a sudden?"

He looked at me silently for a while, then finally shook his head.

"nothing."

Although he felt a little weird, he didn't dare to just ask him if he knew something, so he drove away nervously under his watch.

On Saturday, asked Gu Ying to choose a ring at a gold shop, and by the way, also changed the size of Sang Zhengbai's pair of rings-the women's rings were too small to fit on a man's finger.

"I'm going on a date with my boyfriend later, can I just pick one?" Gu Ying looked at the box of rings brought to her by the salesman, and ordered a pair of silver rings in plain circle, "That's it, it's like yours. ."

I raised my head and took a gulp of the mineral water handed over by the salesman. I glanced at it casually, nodded and said, "Okay."

After paying, Gu Ying took one of the rings and left. While waiting for the other pair of rings, I accidentally received a call from A Yao.

She usually doesn't call me if it's not a big deal. She felt strange, but she pressed the answer button anyway.

"Boss, haven't you read the report I sent you recently?" A Yao seemed to be on the road and could hear the car horn faintly.

"I'm too busy, I don't have time to read, what's wrong?" Ji Chenfeng has been walking around me all day, he will tell me wherever he goes, what report do I need to read?

"Just... you'd better take a look. Although you don't need to record anything about you, I think it's necessary to tell you about this person."

To tell her not to hang up, I jumped out of the call interface, clicked on the mailbox, and quickly read the latest observation report.

"Remember Ji Chenfeng's first love with the bamboo horse? I only found out not long ago that he returned to China. Not only did he change his name and identity, but he also rented a large office in a commercial building in the city center and became a little famous. psychiatrist."

[At 12:00 pm, Ji Chenfeng and Zhou Jiyu have a meal. 】

Under the concise text, there are two photos attached, which were taken through the glass of the restaurant. don't know what camera A Yao is using, but it's so clear that she can even see the lemon slices in the water glass on the table.

Ji Chenfeng and Zhou Jiyu were sitting by the floor-to-ceiling windows, and they were talking about something. The atmosphere was harmonious, the sun was shining, a gentle and intellectual, a handsome and threatening, like a pair of beautiful people.

"... Zhou Jiyu?" I heard my own voice say Zhou Jiyu's name gloomily.

"Yes, it's him." A Yao slapped her lips and said, "Big brother, jump out of the identity of a private detective, I have a little immature guess, I think... He may want to eat back grass and dig your corner. ."

Asking if I will lie to him, is it because I have a ghost in my heart? I am busy here, but he is not idle. What, after walking around, you still think the first lollipop is more delicious, right? If you don't have the 500,000, I'm afraid that you wouldn't have reconnected with your first love long ago, right?

"Where is Ji Chenfeng now?" he asked with gritted teeth.

The date of the meal was a few days ago, and he didn't tell me anything for so many days. He ate with other men without my knowledge, he ate with the previous men without my knowledge... Damn, is there anything else to do besides eating?

"At home, ahem, Zhou Jiyu just left." A Yao added, "Maybe he came to see Yan Shanhua. I think he bought a lot of fruit..."

With a loud bang, the phone slammed on the wall, and it shattered in an instant, and all the annoying sounds disappeared immediately. I was gasping for breath, and there was only one thought in my mind—he let Zhou Jiyu enter the house, and he still remembered him.
