404 mailbox

Don't guess, Zhong Jurui has always been secretive about his love history, and he doesn't like to stab people as a friend.But in his impression, that person had dumped Zhong Jurui for at least a year or two. Zhong Jurui still said that there is no BE, which is really deceiving himself.

At this moment, the folk guitarist down below changed his style, and the bar became a little more turbulent. Tang Cheng took the time to turn around and look at the stage. It seemed that there were two more people on the stage, one played the drums, the other played the bass, and they changed to a fast-paced song. "Whiplash", the lights of the bar are dazzling.

Zhong Jurui was called to talk about technology by Chen Le on the other side, and he regretted drinking on an empty stomach. He should have eaten some fruit to pad his stomach just now. I don’t know which string this drum set hit in his subconscious, making him feel uncomfortable all over. Comfortable.

Tang Cheng turned around and said to Chen Le: "Don't talk about work at the party, it's not a disappointment."

Chen Le smiled and said, "Boss, what are you talking about?"

"For a married person like you, can't you tell us about the benefits of having a wife? It's so distressing to be alone all the time."

As soon as Chen Le heard it, he immediately said to Zhong Jurui: "Don't be in a hurry to find a wife. I have a rare game today, and my wife called me to ask me how I went to the bar, who I went with, and what kind of bar. There is no freedom at all." No."

"How does your wife know?" Tang Cheng asked, "Just don't tell her otherwise."

"Boss! Don't you know that Apple mobile phones can find friends? She taps her mobile phone at home, and it's clear where I am."

Tang Cheng gloated immediately.

A waiter brought some food again, and walked downstairs from Tang Cheng's box with an empty tray. The foreman asked him to bring a bottle of dry red to Table 34 in the corner through the headset. Those were some friends of the boss. Being coaxed to perform on stage, the boss enjoyed watching, and asked for a bottle of wine to be charged to the boss's own account.

He went over with the wine in his arms and heard the boss laughing at the young man who had just come off the stage while eating melon seeds: "I've been with you for so many years and I still only know how to play this song? Who are you fooling? I won't buy it." !"

The young man sat down and said with a smile: "It would be nice to confiscate your money and give you a performance. I have traveled all over the world in the past year, and I haven't entered the city a few times. How can I have the opportunity to learn this petty bourgeois instrument?"

The location of this table is very tricky. Although it is not a box, it is covered by layers of green plants, so it is easily invisible. It is a private area of ​​the boss.They chatted noisily again, while the waiter opened the wine quietly.

Zhong Jurui listened to Tang Cheng and Chen Le talking about how to use technical means to avoid the check post of the "find friends" function. He couldn't get in the conversation, so he lowered his head and took out his mobile phone to check the time.He was still thinking about a work arrangement, and was about to click on the mailbox to check it out. His mind seemed to be too drunk, and was influenced by the people chatting on the left and right, so he twitched his hand and clicked on "Find Friends".

On the screen, his own avatar was shrunk in a circle, and the light circle was flickering to quickly locate the bar. When he was about to exit, the map suddenly reloaded, and another dot flickered, overlapping with the blue.

Zhong Jurui froze for a moment, not quite understanding what it meant, he clicked the dot, and suddenly saw clearly that it was also a head portrait.

—a face he dared not even dream of at night.

Zhong Jurui's blood surged up, his whole body trembled uncontrollably, and he stood up slowly.

The author has something to say: Norwegianwood, those who meet will meet again.Happy Christmas Eve! ! !

☆、Chapter 52

Zhong Jurui stood at the stairs on the second floor and looked down at the whole audience, his fingers gripping the wooden fence tightly, his knuckles turned white from the force.

While searching among the crowd downstairs, he organized his thoughts.He made sure that he had never bound their accounts in the function of finding friends - if he had done so, he wouldn't have to think about where Pei Xu was when he suffered from insomnia in the past two years.Although I can't remember when Pei Xu secretly took his mobile phone to bind the account, but at least until today, Pei Xu has not unlinked it.

Didn't untie him, does it mean that Pei Xu hasn't let go of himself yet?

Excited by this conjecture, Zhong Jurui scanned the individual passengers again, but still did not see that figure—it could only be in the box.These boxes were so close at hand, Zhong Jurui turned around, feeling that his internal organs were being pulled by someone, making it difficult to breathe nervously.There are a total of 8 boxes on the second floor from east to west, all of which are semi-open, and the guests inside can be seen when walking in the aisle.Zhong Jurui passed by one by one slowly, staring at each box from the corner of his eye, and raised his heart in his throat - what do you want to say when we meet?

He stopped,

Damn, I didn't think about what to say.

When I was imagining before, I thought about keeping some dignity, such as saying calmly: "Long time no see, where do you work now?" I also thought about fucking all decent things, and grabbed this little brat when I saw it. over his shoulder, scolding him: "You heartless bastard!" But at this moment, when they could meet each other for real, he didn't know what to say.

--whatever.Let's meet first.

It is rare for Zhong Jurui to be impulsive in his life.

He continued to walk down, and there was only the last box in front of him.It can't be said that he was looking forward to Pei Xu's presence, or he was afraid of Pei Xu's presence. He gritted his teeth and walked over quickly, staring at the inside from the corner of his eyes, and in an instant, his internal organs returned to their respective places - all in the box Girl, obviously there is no Pei Xu.

Zhong Jurui turned around resolutely and looked down at the railing. He could see all the tables in the hall at a glance, and there was indeed no sign of Pei Xu.Maybe Pei Xu has already left.Zhong Jurui's heart sank into the water again, he clicked on his phone, Pei Xu's head was still positioned in the bar with circles of light flashing, showing that he hadn't left.That might be in the bathroom, Zhong Jurui thought.After one bout of energy, he declined again, and exhausted three times. He changed his mind again. He no longer looked for Pei Xu, but returned to his box in a low-key manner.

——You can’t appear so rashly, this matter has to be discussed in the long term.

When Tang Cheng saw Zhong Jurui coming back, he thought he was looking for a bathroom just now, so he asked, "Where is the bathroom? I'm going to put some water too."

Zhong Jurui was stunned for a moment, and said, "I forgot, look for the sign."

Tang Cheng got up, and patted Zhong Jurui wonderingly: "Why are you out of your mind, this wine seems to be out of strength, and you can drink it too high?"

Zhong Jurui said: "Well, I'm too drunk." He held his own wine glass with both hands and brought it to his lips.

Seeing Zhong Jurui's awkward posture of holding the wine glass, Tang Cheng was even more puzzled. It's just that the bladder exploded, and the top priority was to drain the water, so he left in a hurry.

It's easy to say anything if you have a position.Zhong Jurui thought to himself, he could know where Pei Xu is usually through positioning, and then make the next step.

In fact, if he wants to know where Pei Xu is, he can do without this location - there is no personal privacy in the Internet age.

It is not difficult for Zhong Jurui to find Pei Xu.He knew where Pei Xu's family lived, and he also had Pei Xu's WeChat account. For a few days, he was angry and didn't want to try to contact her again. Later, he was completely disheartened. He didn't even dare to test whether he was deleted as a friend.

What hindered Zhong Jurui's actions was never finding Pei Xu, but Pei Xu's choice.Because Pei Xu gave up first, he always thought that Pei Xu didn't love him so he chose to leave. If so, he has no position to be a pestering ex.But this binding position gave him a shot in the arm, he thought, maybe there is still a little possibility, Pei Xu did not let go of himself, as long as there is a little possibility, it is enough to support all his actions.

——He was really afraid that the reason why the account was not unlinked was because Pei Xu forgot about it, and based on his understanding of Pei Xu's neglect, it was very fucking possible.

But at this moment, he is willing to deceive himself and others.

Tang Cheng is back.Zhong Jurui asked a little nervously, "Did you see anyone in the bathroom?"

Tang Cheng scratched his bald head: "No, why do you ask that?"

Can't tell whether he was disappointed or relieved, Zhong Jurui said: "Just ask."

When they were about to leave, Tang Cheng called the valet driver. The weather outside was sweltering, and no one wanted to stand and wait outside the air-conditioned room, so they all stayed in the box and waited for the valet driver to call them out.Zhong Jurui was sitting in the corner, obviously out of shape.

Tang Cheng said calmly: "You really drank too much. Usually you don't drink at all, but you suddenly drink yellow soup, that's the consequence."

He still remembered having dinner with Zhong Jurui two or three years ago. At that time, this guy said he would never get drunk in his life, especially because he was injured and drinking too much. Sure enough, he hadn't seen him drinking in the past two years. At this moment, Tang Cheng couldn't help but think, This flag is well established, and the way of heaven is especially good at reincarnation.

"My younger sister is really good. She can start as a friend by eating and drinking." He said.

Zhong Jurui asked, "What's her last name?"

"Strict. Strictly strict."

"That's not very good."

Tang Cheng said: "Why does the surname Yan offend you? Why do you still discriminate by surname?"

Zhong Jurui thought to himself that not being surnamed Pei is the problem.

When the surrogate driver arrived, they finally left.Zhong Jurui turned his head for the last time at the door of the store, and there was no face he thought about day and night.A waiter rubbed shoulders with him with a large bowl of Yangchun noodles, and politely said excuse me, Tang Cheng pushed him by the shoulders and sent him to the back seat of the car.

Yang Chun passed through the barriers of green plants, turned another corner, opened the innermost half curtain, put it in front of Pei Xu, steaming hot.Pei Xu raised his hand and said, "Bring another empty bowl!"

The boss said: "It's all yours! No one will grab it from you, so just eat it in this big bowl."

Jiang Yu came back from the toilet, hungry, staring at the face and said: "You really send people to buy noodles next door? I want me, I want another bowl!"

Pei Xu shrugged and said, "Didn't someone snatch it from me?"

"How do you go back? I'll see you off later?" Jiang Yu asked.

"I can only stay in a hotel today."

"Your behavior always makes me think that you are rich." Jiang Yu said.

Pei Xu was also helpless.He was actually down and out this year.In his senior year, he was recommended by Professor Hou to join a magazine and stationed in Northwest China. In the year after graduation, he wrote more than a dozen in-depth articles on politics and law, half of which were deleted and published, and half of them were stillborn.Before he had time to mourn for the words he had lost, the editor-in-chief first mourned for the life and death of the newspaper.These days, it is too difficult for paper media to survive.

"The golden age of journalists has passed, and journalism is a sunset industry. It's too late for a mantis to be a car." The editor-in-chief sighed.He occasionally mentions that in the golden age before 2008, wages were paid in cash, and when housing prices in Beijing were less than [-], he earned [-] a month from writing.What a fucking crazy time.

Most of Pei Xu's income comes from his "essays", those short essays of a thousand characters that he can easily write in half an hour, and short stories about the customs and customs of the Northwest, are his pastime when he is depressed.These little stories certainly have their value, and have even amassed some readers for him, but they stray from his greatest personal passion.When another topic was rejected, Pei Xu called to ask for a vacation.The editor-in-chief approved it, and told him: "Don't take too long a rest, if you take too long, our newspaper might disappear."

Pei Xu rolled back home from the northwest, and didn't tell his brother and sister-in-law.I didn't feel much before, but after graduation, I suddenly felt that I had grown up, so I couldn't keep disturbing the world of the two of them.He rented a house, and he can only move in on the 15th. Currently, he can only live in a hotel.I thought that I could have fun with my friends during the vacation, but all my friends are social animals, and they all work overtime. Only on Saturdays do we find a few single dogs who are willing to drink without dating.

Pei Xu said to the boss: "Lu Yitao, it seems that you are the happy homeless person like you." He pointed to the words printed on the chest of the boss's short sleeves, "It's still arrogantly printed 'not going to work today'."

Lu Yitao said: "You're wrong. It's not that the homeless are happy, but the rich are happy. Because you have money, you can't go to work."

Pei Xu said, "Can I become a shareholder?"

"No." Lu Yitao laughed loudly, "Do you really regret choosing the legal direction when you are diverted from majors? If you choose economics and management, you will have a lot of money now, or you will change careers like Jiang Yu, and you will not be a media at all. On the other hand, isn't life very nourishing?"

Jiang Yu immediately said: "Don't mention it, you are a social animal in any line of work, I am a ghost."

Pei Xu actually didn't regret it much.After a series of shocks to his values, after a long period of thinking, he calmed down instead.Ideas are subject to change, just obey your heart.

They chatted twittering until the early hours of the morning, and finally some of them couldn't bear it anymore.Pei Xu sat in Jiang Yu's car, feeling the cold air blowing on his calf.He got out of the car, waved goodbye, and went back to the room silently.

Lonely.

The brain is poisoned by alcohol, and when I am alone, I miss Zhong Jurui especially.Hold.

Pei Xu said in his heart, we have to look forward.He didn't want to take a shower anymore, he lay on the bed, skillfully turned on the function of finding friends, and saw Zhong Jurui's dot blinking, three blocks away from him.He stared at that circle of light until his eyelids fought and he fell into a drowsy sleep.

Zhong Jurui, who was three blocks away, suffered from insomnia.

Since discovering this function, he can no longer be calm.I looked at my phone every 5 minutes, and finally found that point was staying in a hotel at one o'clock in the morning-and it was not too far away from him.

Why didn't he go home after returning to City A, but stayed in a hotel?

Zhong Jurui had a hundred not-so-good associations, which drove him crazy.He tossed and turned, got up at six o'clock on Sunday morning, took a cold shower, and decided to go for a morning run in this smoggy weather.

Pei Xu woke up from hunger in the morning.This hotel offers a free breakfast every morning until 09:30, no later arrivals.He struggled a few times, but decided to go down and eat something before coming back to catch up on sleep.

In the restaurant, he met an acquaintance, Chen Jiarui.

In the summer two or three years ago, when my mother-in-law had her first operation, he often went to the hospital to accompany her in bed. At that time, the patient in the same ward was Chen Jiarui.A few mornings ago at the restaurant, Pei Xu concentrated on queuing up for the omelets to be served, when he heard someone calling "Jia Rui", he subconsciously looked back and bumped into a face with some impressions.The owner of that face was one behind him, and obviously touched the memory switch. He said "ahhh" twice, and said, "Are you my client? I remember your appearance, but I can't remember where I saw you." Yes. Excuse me, can you remind me?"

Pei Xu was silent for a while, and said, "Actually, I am your creditor, and you owe me 10,000+."

Chen Jiarui laughed and said, "You still like to tell bad jokes so much. I actually remembered that you are that grandson."

At that time, in the ward, the mother-in-law kept saying that both Zhong Jurui and Pei Xu were her grandsons, and Chen Jiarui was right to say so.It's just that the pronunciation of his "grandson" is very outrageous, like a curse.

Pei Xu asked him how he lived in a hotel. He said he had a small pet. The pet grew up and ruined the furniture and floors, so he had to redecorate it. He stayed in the hotel during this time.

We met again in the restaurant today, Pei Xu couldn't turn a blind eye, so he sat at the same table with Chen Jiarui with oatmeal porridge.

"I'm going to check out later." Chen Jiarui said.

"Is your house finished?"

"No, I'm going on a business trip." Chen Jiarui said, "I'll be away for three weeks, and I'll probably be able to stay at home when I come back." He took a closer look and saw that there were bruises under Pei Xu's eyes, and said, "Why do you look so indulgent? look?"

"Drinking too much yesterday." Pei Xu scratched the back of his head, "I'm still a little confused now."

Chen Jiarui also pulled his clothes and said, "I committed suicide yesterday, this will be a bit uncomfortable."

"What are you doing?" Pei Xu asked casually.

The old god Chen Jiarui sighed on the ground, and said: "I suddenly discovered that there are a few hairs on my chest. The more I looked at them yesterday, the more unpleasant I was. I took a disposable razor blade in the hotel and accidentally scratched it. This will cause skin wounds. It hurts a little when it touches the clothes."

Pei Xu said, "You put a Band-Aid on it."

Chen Jiarui glanced at WeChat, and his boss asked him how long until he was at the airport, and he quickly replied, "Hey, can you please help me buy a box at the convenience store outside after eating? I have to go up and get my luggage and check out. See you at the counter later." After speaking, he stuffed the toast into his mouth, grabbed the key card and ran to the elevator.

Pei Xu thought to himself, what a psychopath who doesn't treat himself as an outsider.He silently ate the last bite, and decided to be a bad guy.

Zhong Jurui ran around the hotel for countless laps.After nine o'clock in the morning on weekends, many shopping malls are not open, and it looks very deserted here.The security guard at the door kept staring at him, Zhong Jurui lowered his peaked cap, and decided not to wander around the door, but went to a nearby convenience store to buy a bottle of water.

He took a bottle of sports drink from the shelf, and when he turned around, he saw Pei Xu picking and choosing from the freezer next to him.

His breathing stopped suddenly.

Zhong Jurui blinked slowly, watching the thin young man leaning over to take a milk-flavored ice cream from the freezer.

He took a deep breath, took a step forward, suppressed the turbulent emotions in his heart, and said calmly: "Eat ice cream early in the morning, won't your stomach hurt?"

Pei Xu froze suddenly. He looked at the ice cream in his hand decently. He felt that he couldn't read a line of words. He blinked, threw the ice cream back, turned around and said with a smile: "What do you mean?" Makes sense."

☆、Chapter 53

Whenever a customer comes in at the entrance of the convenience store, the background music of "Ding, Ding, Ding" sounds, and the warm smell of sandwiches wafts from the microwave oven. A primary school student stands next to Zhong Jurui, slowly picking out yogurt , was dragged away by his mother, and urged him to hurry up in dialect, because he was going to be late for cram school.

Pei Xu asked in a friendly tone: "Why such a coincidence? Are you here too?"

Zhong Jurui said, "Come here to buy a bottle of water."

Pei Xu thought to himself, Zhong Jurui has learned to change concepts secretly.Don't answer why you are in this convenience store, just answer why you are in a convenience store.He laughed dryly and said, "Goodbye then, let's meet again when we have time."

Zhong Jurui saw a box of Band-Aids on his other hand at a glance, and moved his chin farther away, and asked, "Have you bumped?"

"No, I bought it for a friend."

Zhong Jurui was the first to pay the bill before Pei Xu, and he was very concerned about this "friend". Just as he was about to open his mouth, the clerk asked him if he had a membership card, which interrupted what he could have asked naturally. Deliberately.He took the receipt and went to the trash can at the door to throw it away. Through the glass door, his eyes scanned the ground and stopped on Pei Xu's face.

Pei Xu didn't seem to have changed.I am neither fat nor thin, neither tanned nor whiter. I may have dyed my hair, but the dyed color is not too exaggerated. I can’t see it under the fluorescent lamp. I will go outdoors under the natural light to see that it seems to be a deep maroon.

Pei Xu simply bit the bullet and walked out.

He felt that Zhong Jurui might be looking at him, and he felt that maybe he was being sentimental, because when he walked to the door, Zhong Jurui looked at an illusory spot in the convenience store expressionlessly, as if he just looked at it casually because he was waiting for him to check out His eyes.

awkward.

Pei Xu Rumang was on his back.

They looked at each other for two seconds, Pei Xu put on a smiling face and tried to say goodbye: "Then... we have a chance to meet again."

"Are you working in City A now?" Zhong Jurui asked, "Maybe on weekends..."

Pei Xu was afraid that Zhong Jurui would make an appointment again, so he immediately interrupted: "No, I'm out of town. I'm going to take my annual leave for the next two days and come back to have a look, so I'm leaving right away."

Zhong Jurui nodded, unscrewed the mineral water bottle, and said, "Oh, in this case, let's get together today."

"I still have something to do... It's not good to keep you waiting..." Pei Xu shook the band-aid on his hand, pretending to be very embarrassed, hoping that Zhong Jurui could see better, but this guy didn't seem to understand what he said As if, he said very politely: "It's okay, I don't go to work today, I'm always free, I can wait for you." After taking a sip of water, he said, "Will it be difficult for you? No matter what... Alumni reunion, chatting is not counted what?"

Pei Xu frowned and looked at Zhong Jurui, trying to dig out something from this face, but Zhong Jurui's face had probably thickened in the past two years, and he couldn't see anything.He has not yet come out of the huge emotional trough when he met Zhong Jurui, and now his brain is down, he can't immediately arm himself with the image of a shameless prodigal son.

He walked towards the hotel with some hesitation, and said to Zhong Jurui, "Then wait for me."

As soon as Pei Xu entered the revolving door of the hotel, he saw Chen Jiarui lying on the front desk. He motioned Zhong Jurui to sit on a sofa in the lobby, and walked straight over by himself.

"Your Band-Aid." Pei Xu's heart was in a mess, and his tone was not very happy.

Chen Jiarui thanked repeatedly and said, "Then I will send you a red envelope on WeChat."

"No need, there's not much money." Pei Xu stood aside after speaking, thinking about how to start the meeting with Zhong Jurui and what to talk about, but he didn't move for a while.But his mind was so confused that he even wondered if it was because the dry red wine mixed with beer and fruit wine last night made him still in a drunk dream.

Zhong Jurui took a few steps closer to the sofa, and saw from a distance that Pei Xu didn't get on the elevator, but a young man who went straight to the front desk, turned his footsteps, and went to the front desk as well.

When he was seven or eight steps away from them, he heard the front desk say: "The soft drinks and condoms in the room are charged separately, and you still need to pay 120 yuan, cash or credit card?" Zhong Jurui's pupils dilated suddenly, and he froze on the spot , and took a few steps back stiffly.

Pei Xu didn't notice Zhong Jurui approaching from behind, he looked at Chen Jiarui with a meaningful look, and said, "Oh?"

Chen Jiarui said without changing his expression: "Why, have you never seen a condom when you are so old?" He lowered his head to touch the computer bag, took out a box from which interlayer, and photographed it in Pei Xu's hand, "Look, you don't know much Well, these two are for you, thank you for running errands just now."

Pei Xu suddenly regretted why he didn't leave immediately after delivering the band-aids, but instead stood and talked to the second ratio.

Chen Jiarui frantically signed the bill, saw Pei Xu's tangled expression, and said, "You don't want me to teach you how to use it, do you?"

Pei Xu said speechlessly: "What kind of job are you doing? Is it legal?"

Chen Jiarui held the suitcase with one hand, and put his arm around his shoulder, turned around and said, "It's very legal. Put it away quickly, what are you doing with it in your hand?" After he finished speaking, he looked up and saw a familiar face standing in front of him, and couldn't help but Stop "eh".Pei Xu raised his head when he heard the sound, Zhong Jurui was standing not far away looking at his phone, he looked up at them, his gaze swept over his hands, and then returned to the phone screen.

Pei Xu shoved the box in his hand back into Chen Jiarui's computer bag in embarrassment.

Chen Jiarui said: "Hey, I think you look familiar. Are you my client? I'm so sorry, I can't remember."

Zhong Jurui raised his head and said impatiently: "You remember wrongly, I don't remember you."

Pei Xu smoothed things over and said, "I've seen it before, in a ward of the hospital a few years ago."

Chen Jiarui said "oh oh" twice, obviously remembering it, and said pleasantly, "Is your grandma okay?"

Zhong Jurui hummed vaguely.Seeing his unwillingness to say more, Chen Jiarui was also a little puzzled. It just so happened that the car he ordered arrived, and the driver called him, so he hurriedly dragged the suitcase away.

There were only two people standing like pillars in the hall.

Pei Xu shrugged, and asked a little bit brokenly: "Do you still want to talk?"

Zhong Jurui sneered and said, "Am I sick? I have to talk to you."

——This familiar sentence pattern.

Pei Xu suddenly laughed.Zhong Jurui whose face became faster than the sky, Zhong Jurui who is always stubborn.What is he afraid of, Zhong Jurui is still that Zhong Jurui.

He said, "Well, can I talk to you? Let's sit down somewhere."

So I still ate ice cream.

Zhong Jurui didn't ask you this time if you won't get stomach pain after eating it, and Pei Xu didn't look at his face either.He ordered a large serving of snow ice, spread it full of mangoes, and ate it by himself.

Zhong Jurui's complexion was not very good, as if he had lost the desire to talk.The expectation was shattered, he only felt that he was sick, ashamed, and self-indulgent.

"Where is the mother-in-law? Are you at home alone? You won't accompany her on weekends?" Pei Xu asked.

"died."

Pei Xu said "Ah", he suddenly didn't understand, didn't someone take all the things that were sent out?He called the delivery courier once, and the other party said that an old lady signed for it.He thought it was the mother-in-law.

Zhong Jurui breathed calmly and said, "During the winter vacation of my senior year."

Pei Xu was stunned, and he said, "I don't...why didn't you tell me..."

Zhong Jurui looked at the bubbles in the glass dejectedly, and said, "I called you, but you never answered... Later, I thought you probably didn't want to contact me, so I didn't bother you anymore." After a pause, He didn't want to continue this topic either, so he pretended to be relaxed and said, "I'm not the kind of person who clings to it, and today I just reminisce about the old days because I met by chance."

Pei Xu put down the spoon and said, "I haven't received your call. It's not an excuse... You can blame me, but I still want to make this point clear."

Zhong Jurui snorted: "I've called you no less than a hundred times, do you dare to accept none of them? If you see it, you should call back."

"I only received one video call record and two WeChat messages from you." Pei Xu admitted frankly.His mind was running quickly, and his hand unconsciously flipped forward the call log.Two years ago was too long ago, and he couldn't find it no matter how he flipped through it. When he reached the top, he suddenly realized that he had changed his phone once, and the call records were long gone.But he was absolutely sure that he had never received such an incoming call reminder.

At that time, he said to calm down and ran to the Buddhist monastery.Breaking up probably means wanting to break up, but most of them are impulsive and not clear-headed decisions of teenagers.Within two days he regretted it.

It looks inappropriate and a bit aggrieved to get along with, but I like it so much.He thought, why should he think about Zhongju Ruigao being unhappy? It's bad if he thinks too much.He was reluctant to part with Zhong Jurui, and still wanted to return to him in a hurry.

He has a lot of things to think about, such as how to accept an ordinary self who is not a hero and can do nothing, and how to face his family members who may be hurt because of his own will.The family does not need a hero, the family only needs him to be good.He didn't go home right away, but hand-copied the Diamond Sutra in the monastery. It was written for his mother-in-law.

Sister Xue was hit by the flu and had a high fever due to her mental stress due to her travels years ago.Pei Xu didn't bring his mobile phone with him when he left, and no one remembered to go to his room to charge his mobile phone when the war was chaotic, and his mobile phone was cut off and turned off long ago.Sitting next to the charging plug, Pei Xu could only call Zhong Jurui.The battery of the mobile phone was finally barely able to turn on, and the two WeChat messages sent before also appeared in the floating window because of the connection to the Internet.

A reminder that Zhong Jurui tried to video call him and canceled.

One is "Forget it, you're doing well."

One was "I hate you so much, you'd better never show up".

Because of his urgency, Zhong Jurui gave priority to making calls, but he didn't know that Pei Xu's mobile phone package did not have the function of SMS notification of missed calls when the phone was turned off, so all the calls he made were lost while the phone was turned off. When I turned it back on, the call log was nothing.Pei Xu never knew that someone had called him more than 130 times.The only thing he received was Zhong Jurui's WeChat, which was not affected by the shutdown, and clearly reminded him that Zhong Jurui hated him very much and never wanted to see him.

He thought, maybe it was his rash breakup that hurt Zhong Jurui.He thought it was an angry statement, but he didn't have the confidence to verify it.He received such a few messages in total, and after reading and reading, he felt that he was really self-willed and terrible.

The world is chaotic and in a mess, who can distinguish among those regrets, how many catties and taels are caused by A, and how many catties and taels are caused by B?It's no use even talking about it.Time has passed, and these explanations are also very pale.

Zhong Jurui saw floating dust flying in the sun, and lost his appetite for ice cream. He hated it, should he turn off Pei Xu's phone, or should he hate the disabled phone operator?No one foresees that the mother-in-law will leave that day, and no one really wants to cause these regrets.He was so angry at Pei Xu at that time, but he wasn't really angry at Pei Xu for not answering the phone. He was angry at himself. He knew that his mother-in-law didn't really want to see Pei Xu, but was just worried about him.Because I was worried that he would be dull and couldn't handle his feelings well, I wanted to speak for him. In the final analysis, my mother-in-law just loved him, and it was him that made my mother-in-law worry all the time.

The old lady's dying regret was never that she didn't call Pei Xu, but that she couldn't confirm her grandson's happiness.

When Zhong Jurui heard her mother-in-law explaining the bracelet, she was thinking, when did the old lady know, maybe she knew it when she brought her girlfriend home, and pretended not to know it in order to fulfill her filial piety—the old lady It has always been like this, as if he had reluctantly gone to treatment in order to fulfill his filial piety.If only he had been honest earlier...but there is no if.

Zhong Jurui remained silent.

Pei Xu sat opposite him, not knowing what to say.He didn't want to engage in these bitter scenes with his ex-boyfriend here in the morning, so he really asked about Zhong Jurui's recent situation like a schoolmate.

"That's it. It's the offer you know. I haven't changed jobs in the past two years. How about you?"

Pei Xu laughed deliberately, and said, "Me? I'm about to lose my job, so don't mention it."

Zhong Jurui thought of the young man who was talking to Pei Xu at the front desk - he no longer remembered Chen Jiarui, although Pei Xu reminded him, he still hadn't cleared his mind - they lived here together last night, Pei Xu Buying him a Band-Aid, and the two chatting about exchanging family planning supplies, the relationship is self-evident.

Zhong Jurui was heartbroken.

He struggles to focus on eating, not to lose his composure.

His voice is steady, his smile is sincere, but his eyes are always fixed on the melting ice cream scoop.He said: "I still have some work to do today. If you have anything to help, feel free to contact me. My... contact information has not changed."

Pei Xu watched Zhong Jurui go out, and quickly disappeared from sight.He braced his chin and tightened his sore muscles from a smirk.

The author has something to say: Why is this article so bloody? ? ?I faint.

☆、Chapter 54

Zhong Jurui originally wanted to have a good chat, but after finding out that Pei Xu had a new relationship, he didn't know what to talk about, and he was glad that he didn't do anything that would embarrass him even more.

Today's Saturday is his day off, but he sat at home for a while, and he really couldn't do anything like this honestly.

He wants to work.

He sent a WeChat message to his boss, saying that some work was not finished, and he applied to return to the company to work overtime in the afternoon.

The boss sent a series of question marks. They routinely work overtime every Sunday, and they rarely take a break on Saturdays. There is really no need to work so hard.

"Enjoy life, too. Things haven't been so busy recently, stay with your family."

Zhong Jurui wanted to accompany him, but unfortunately he didn't have any family members to accompany him.He began to recall last week, last week, what he was doing on every rest day, but he couldn't remember at all, and only then did he realize that his life was really lackluster.

A boring person like me.Boring people like me.

How could he be liked.

Pei Xu watched Zhong Jurui go away, his heart was empty, he couldn't stay in the room by himself, but the friends who were able to make an appointment had all made an appointment yesterday, so it was hard to call out again today, he hesitated for a long time, but decided to go home.

He said in the family group that he went back to see them on vacation, and was already on the way by taxi. Sister Xue seemed very happy, saying that a little aunt happened to come, and she was at home, and she had already prepared dishes at noon.

Pei Xu replied, "Which little aunt?"

"My little aunt. My cousin finished his college entrance examination and came here for a tour. Today, he will come to our house for a sit-down."

Pei Xu replied again: "I have relatives from far away, which makes me irritable, and I want to go back on my word.
