Inertia gentle

Chapter 53 Lonely

Xie Chengjing came to the side of the car, just took out the car keys from the pocket of the windbreaker, suddenly turned sideways as if feeling something, and looked at the person behind him.

Miss Zhang's outstretched hand paused awkwardly in mid-air, but after a while, she naturally retracted it and put it behind her back, and said calmly: "I wanted to surprise you, but I didn't expect to be discovered."

"Miss Zhang?" Xie Chengjing: "Why are you here?"

Ms. Zhang tilted her head: "Didn't you ask me to have dinner today? I saw you coming down not long after I arrived." She pointed to a white car parked not far away, obviously it belonged to her.

Xie Chengjing was silent, he didn't invite her to dinner.The last time his grandfather asked him to go back, he not only met his old friends and granddaughters, but the attitudes of the two parties made him aware of their thoughts. Xie Chengjing avoided them vaguely, and no longer responded to his grandfather's request to go back to eat. Presumably the other party also knew his attitude.

But I didn't expect my grandfather to let Ms. Zhang come over directly, and I was sure that Xie Chengjing would not tear down his stage on the spot, or embarrass Ms. Zhang.

Xie Chengjing nodded slightly, opened the car door: "Let's go."

Xie Chengjing still didn't talk much along the way, and Ms. Zhang took the initiative to talk about some interesting things. When she spoke, she had a natural sense of intimacy, and it didn't make people feel blunt.

"Actually, we played together when we were young, you probably don't remember it." Ms. Zhang turned her head to look at Xie Chengjing.

Xie Chengjing shook his head.

"At that time, there were children from the Guan family and the Li family, but it's not surprising that you would forget, because only we were playing, and you were watching."

Ms. Zhang was a little funny: "We were all naive children at that time, and you looked so quiet that I didn't dare to talk to you."

Xie Chengjing spent her childhood with her grandfather, who was very strict, and because of Xie Chengjing's personality, there are not many so-called colorful spots in memory.

Ordinary people may find these nostalgic language familiar, but he has always been indifferent.

Seeing Xie Chengjing's indifferent profile, although Miss Zhang was still smiling, she tightened her fingers slightly, causing discordant folds to the flat skirt, showing that she was not as comfortable as she appeared on the surface.

At the traffic lights, Ms. Zhang's hands suddenly felt fluffy. When she looked down, she found a piece of beige cloth protruding from the corner of the seat, which looked like a scarf.

When she got into the car, she didn't notice that it was pressed all the time.

"Is this...is your scarf? I didn't notice it just now." Miss Zhang picked up the scarf. The warm color and soft touch didn't look like something Xie Chengjing would wear.

Xie Chengjing glanced at it, but said nothing.

Miss Zhang lowered her head, and smelled a warm and elegant fragrance, which is a comfortable breath.

Xie Chengjing frowned: "Give it to me."

Before Ms. Zhang could react, Xie Chengjing reached out and took the scarf. His finger bones were long and distinct. They were the hands of the most handsome boy Ms. Zhang had ever seen. It's not Miss Zhang's illusion.

Ms. Zhang, who was trying to ease the atmosphere, suddenly felt embarrassed, and at the same time she understood something in her heart.

——That's not Xie Chengjing's scarf.

After passing the traffic light, the car hadn't been driving for long, so it had to park in the next parking space. Now it was the rush hour, and the car moved a few meters away from the restaurant, so the two got out of the car and took a shortcut.

The light of the setting sun reflected on the glass wall of the building, and pedestrians were in a hurry. It was the time when the city was bustling and busy, but from time to time passers-by paid attention to the couple.

Maybe it's because their appearance and temperament are too outstanding.The man is tall and has a stern face. Normally, passers-by can’t help but retreat three feet away, but the beautiful and amiable smile of the girl next to him just dispels some alienation. The appearance is so matched, making it easy for people to Think they will be a couple.

But unlike her calm appearance, Miss Zhang is a little at a loss now.

Since she was a child, she has been a generous and decent girl who has been appreciated by her family and elders. She also knows that she has always been likable in interpersonal communication, but now facing Xie Chengjing, she doesn't know what to do.

The other party is a very good person. Ms. Zhang knows this deeply. He is an outstanding person among her peers. If she hadn't been a little moved, she would not have listened to her elders and agreed to such a relationship like a blind date.

Seeing that the destination was close in front of her eyes, Ms. Zhang's eyes lit up: "Sure enough, it's still faster to walk."

She pulled Xie Chengjing's arm to go forward, but found that the other party suddenly stopped moving, and he was staring at a certain place, his eyes were dark and deep.

At that moment, Miss Zhang didn't know that someone's eyes could be so profound.

Like the surface of a calm black water lake, there is a bottomless abyss beneath the surface of the lake. Unknown emotions are surging, and the strong emotions are all withdrawn from the eyes at the moment when they are about to come out, without showing any signs of expression.

When Ms. Zhang was in a daze, Xie Chengjing lowered her eyes and returned to normal. He put his hand in the pocket of the windbreaker, avoiding Ms. Zhang's touch: "Let's go."

Miss Zhang came back to her senses, and before she left, she turned her head to look at the place the other party was looking at just now. There were some pedestrians on the path opposite, with lonely trees on both sides, and there was nothing special about it.

The warm orange light of the setting sun brought a little warmth in the cold air. Xie Chengjing had already walked to the front, and Miss Zhang quickly caught up.

The crowd crowded across the zebra crossing, and Ms. Zhang was suddenly pushed farther away. Among the people coming and going, Xie Chengjing's stern profile was outlined by the sunlight with a gold border, and the wind blew past his windbreaker. Looking back, the surrounding air seems to be obsessed with his demeanor, but he seems absent-minded.

Miss Zhang knew the distance between herself and him, not just the crowd.

Dinner in the restaurant was nice and everything went well.

There is no need for more blunt words. Ms. Zhang understands that the other party has no intention of in-depth communication, and everything is more like etiquette.

But it's always nice to have a delicious dinner with someone pleasing to the eye.Ms. Zhang, who had no other thoughts at all, felt relieved, and asked while drinking red wine, "When you were on the alley just now, did you see someone you know?"

Xie Chengjing raised her eyes.

"Only when you miss someone, people will appear so... lonely in the crowd." Ms. Zhang smiled: "Is that the owner of that scarf?"

Xie Chengjing remained silent, as if he didn't know that he was so obvious, and finally said: "I'm sorry if I neglected Ms. Zhang."

Miss Zhang asked curiously: "I know how to explain to my dad when I go back, but it's Grandfather Xie, what should you say?"

Xie Chengjing: "Of course he will understand."

Ms. Zhang sighed: "If you like someone, it would be a pity if you miss it because of other things."

Although she didn't know what entanglement he had with his sweetheart, it seemed that he was very unhappy.

Xie Chengjing's eyes flickered softly: "I won't miss it." He cut a piece of steak gracefully and steadily.

Seeing such a determined Xie Chengjing, Miss Zhang suddenly envied the owner of the scarf.

In the private room of a club in City B, the smell of tobacco, wine and perfume permeated the space, loud music, men and women dancing their bodies, mixed with the sound of laughter that was so sweet that it was cloying.

Ye Zhili was sitting on the sofa smoking a cigarette, his head throbbing with pain, he stubbed out the cigarette irritably, he urgently needed more exciting medicine to relieve the anxiety at the moment.

At this time, the door of the private room opened, and a person came in, walking straight towards Ye Zhili, but halfway a woman in a red dress stopped him with a wine glass, and said winkingly: "This is not Ye Zhili. Is it... No, it's Mr. Zhan? What should I call you, drink with me..."

The woman seemed to be drinking too much. Ye Zhan was impatient to talk to her, but after taking a closer look, he found that she looked good, so he put his arms around the woman's waist and said nonchalantly: "When I finish my work, you come to the room to accompany me Drink, I will tell you how to call me then."

The woman whispered: "I heard that you have a particularly good product, give me a try."

It turned out that it was because of this, Ye Zhan twitched the corner of his mouth: "Okay, as long as you can afford the price, I will give you the rest."

Woman: "How many more?"

Ye Zhan pouted in Ye Zhili's direction, "We won't find out until the customer over there finishes shopping."

The woman followed her gaze. She recognized Ye Zhan, and naturally recognized Ye Zhili. She was a little surprised, and then she seemed to find it very interesting, and laughed softly: "Isn't that your father?"

Toba Chirei was waiting by the sofa, already showing an impatient expression, Ye Zhan pulled the woman away and walked towards him.

"Why so long?" Ye Zhili asked.

After realizing that Ye Zhan had tampered with the things he drank, Ye Zhili once had Ye Zhan caught and beat him up, but afterwards, the feeling of paralyzing his mind and forgetting all his troubles still attracted him to fall into it again. Until now, I can't extricate myself.

"There is a traffic jam on the road." Ye Zhan said casually.

Ye Zhili looked at him coldly, like looking at an ant, but Ye Zhan was no longer afraid, because the other party was like him now, and he didn't remember who he was after he became addicted, Ye Zhan thought gloatingly.

Ye Zhili: "You son of a bitch, don't you want money?"

No threat.

Now that he is entangled in lawsuits and has developed this habit, who else can he look for besides him.

Ye Zhan said: "Didn't you say you want something good? The new things I brought this time must satisfy you."

"Stop talking nonsense." Ye Zhili: "Take it here quickly." Now he has a severe headache again.

Ye Zhan took out a bag of things from his pocket and gave it to him. Ye Zhili took it and got up to go to the bathroom in the private room.

When Ye Zhili came out, Ye Zhan was joking with the woman just now.

Ye Zhili leaned on the side of the sofa, closed his eyes, and asked after a while, "Why didn't it work?"

Ye Zhan glanced at it: "No, it takes a long time to take effect, so just wait."

Ye Zhili frowned and rubbed his forehead. The woman in the red dress sat down, laying on his shoulder softly and softly, and exhaled softly: "Isn't this Mr. Ye from the Ye family? Chat with me."

Ye Zhili said impatiently, "Go away."

Ye Zhan smiled and said, "Don't mess with him now, come to me."

The woman exhaled drunkenly, looked at Ye Zhili's mature face, and said with a smile, "What kind of medicine are you using?"

Ye Zhili's eyes opened, and he shot at Ye Zhan sharply.

Ye Zhan shrugged: "She won't talk about it, she's more excited when she eats herself."

Woman: "Yes, they are all in the circle, you can play with me, we will be very happy." At the end, she stroked Ye Zhili's chest with her hand.

Ye Zhili was suffering from a severe headache, he shook off the woman's hand, and said to Ye Zhan in a cold voice, "Take this jerk away."

The woman's delicate face froze immediately. She was a well-known courtesan in this society, and she had never been humiliated face to face like this.

She was also annoyed that she was treated like this when she spoke in such a good manner, and she said in a drunken voice, "Huh, who do you think you are? The company his father left to him might be a prisoner someday."

Ye Zhili's face turned livid in an instant, pointing at the woman: "You—"

It was his turn to mock the courtesan, and he was so angry that he forgot to speak.

Seeing his frightening expression, Ye Zhan was afraid that he would explode on the spot and the trouble would end badly, so he quickly pushed the woman away.When Ye Zhan turned his head, he saw Ye Zhili's face was still ashen, and he must be very angry.

"Why hasn't the effect of the medicine arrived yet?" Ye Zhili said coldly.

"Not yet, you...wait." Ye Zhan saw Ye Zhili take out a pill, put it into the wine glass and drank it, and it was too late for him to stop it.

Ye Zhan said: "I'll help you to the room and eat it mixed like this. It will be too exciting then don't blame me for not reminding you."

He wanted to help Ye Zhili, but Ye Zhili stood up and walked upstairs as soon as he waved his hands, nothing seemed abnormal.

Ye Zhili sat on the edge of the bed and rubbed his forehead, still in pain, the woman's sharp ridicule echoed in his ears, he recalled word by word, after so many years, he had done so much, and now he has returned to the beginning, Anyone dared to laugh at him.

Accompanied by the excited spirit, a strong anger welled up in his heart, rampaging in his chest, desperately looking for a vent.

Ye Zhili didn't listen to what Ye Zhan said at the door. He only knew that after the door closed, he took out the pills and put them in his mouth one by one.

After Ye Zhan found that there was no water in the room, he went downstairs to get it. Unexpectedly, when he came back, he found that the door was wide open, and there was no one in the room, and some pills were still scattered on the ground. up!

Ye Zhan hurried downstairs to look for someone, but learned that Ye Zhili had left the clubhouse and disappeared.
