Intersection line

"Xiaoxiao, where did the flower come from? I was too tired yesterday and fell asleep as soon as I got home. I didn't notice it and it wilted overnight without me taking care of it." Wu Yun picked at the petals. Lin Xiao got up, not yet fully awake, and rubbed her eyes.

Wu Yun walked closer to look at her, "Did you not sleep well last night? Why are your eyes so red?"

"have no idea."

"Is this a nightmare?"

Lin Luo shook her head and said, "I can't remember what I dreamed about."

"Xiaoxiao, what are your plans for today? Are you going on a date with Fu Xingchuan?"

"He doesn't have time." Lin Luo blurted out.

"We're going back tomorrow. Fu Xingchuan hasn't been spending much time with you. Is he that busy at work?"

"That should be the case!" Lin Luo smiled.

After washing up, Lin Luo and Wu Yun went downstairs to have breakfast. Wu Yun saw the waiter again and hurried over, leaving Lin Luo behind.

She found a seat by the window and sat down, looking at her phone. The sunlight was a bit glaring, and suddenly a shadow was cast. Lin Luo relaxed her brows and looked up to see Fu Xingchuan standing there, his suit jacket draped over his arm, as if he was about to go out.

"What are you going to do later?" he asked.

"Go out and play."

"one person"

“With friends.”

"The one who gave you flowers?"

"right."

"knew."

He lowered his eyes to look at her, and Lin asked, "Is there anything else?"

"No, I'm leaving."

Lin Luo looked at his back, and her eyes felt a little painful.

When leaving the hotel, she happened to meet Su Youyi coming in. They faced each other and couldn't pretend not to see each other, so Lin Luo nodded to her.

She wanted to leave immediately, but Su Youyi suddenly called her.

"Is there something wrong?" Lin Luo asked.

She said: "We have met before and talked on the phone."

"When did it happen? I don't remember." Lin Luo smiled at her. There was no point in brooding over it after so much time had passed.

"I..." She seemed to have something to say.

"What are you talking about?" Fu Xingchuan walked up to them.

Lin Qi glanced at Fu Xingchuan. He had changed his clothes and was wearing a black leather jacket with a black bottom and an open gray shirt underneath, and wide-leg jeans.

Fu Xingchuan glanced over and saw Lin Qi approaching with a raised lip. His heart was in turmoil, but she then whispered, "Boss Fu, you're dressed so fashionably. Are you going on a date with Boss Su?"

Fu Xingchuan didn't say anything. Lin Luo saw Wen Zenian driving to pick her up and said to them, "I'm leaving now. I won't disturb you anymore."

Su Youyi was surprised by her behavior. She stood next to Fu Xingchuan and watched Lin Qi open the door and get into the car. "I didn't expect her to be so broad-minded..."

Before she could finish her words, Fu Xingchuan strode towards the car. She hurried to catch up and heard him ask, "The car broke down. Can you give us a ride?"

He suddenly appeared outside, Lin Luo's hand loosened, and the seat belt quickly retracted into the slot.

What the hell is he doing? Lin Qi didn't even think about it, "It's not on my way!"

The driver remained silent. Fu Xingchuan's sharp gaze fell upon him, as if he had rejected the offer a little too quickly. Lin Qi made amends in time, "Do you want me to call a car for you?"

"It's urgent, please help me." He said through gritted teeth.

Lin Luo had no choice but to ask Wen Zenian, "Is it okay?"

"Okay." He smiled faintly.

"Come up!"

Lin Qiao wanted to fasten her seat belt again, but she noticed Fu Xingchuan hadn't moved. She looked over, and he said to her, "Get down and sit in the back."

"Why?"

"Boss Su is prone to motion sickness and must sit in the passenger seat."

A gust of wind blew, and Su, disheveled in the wind, rolled her eyes at Fu Xingchuan. When did the car break down? When did she get carsick and have to sit in the passenger seat?

Lin Luo got out of the car reluctantly and gave her seat to Su Youyi.

"Why are you going to work dressed like this?" Lin Luo looked at him and fell for his trick again.

As expected, Fu Xingchuan said lazily, "Let's go on a date."

"Don't drive your own car on a date"

"Gas is so expensive these days! Wouldn't it be nice to get a ride?"

"Mr. Fu is still fussing about such a small amount of gas money."

"If you can save, save. After all, I still have a wife to support at home."

"Who wants you to raise him?" Lin Qi frowned. "Mr. Fu should be more careful about keeping himself clean and not having an illegitimate child. Otherwise, we won't be able to raise him."

This was really poisonous. Fu Xingchuan called a truce with her and said, "Get in the car!"

As soon as they got in the car, Lin Luo changed her expression and said sweetly, "Brother, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Wen Zenian said calmly, "It's okay."

He asked Fu Xingchuan where he was going?

Su Youyi answered him first, "Qiyuan Road, go to inspect the project."

It really was urgent! Lin Luo thought he was lying.

"Let's go to Wutong Avenue first." Fu Xingchuan changed the subject. Su Youyi frowned. Why go there? That wasn't part of their original work plan.

"What a coincidence, we are going there." Lin Luo said gently.

Su Youyi saw the address on the navigation and understood his intention, but did not expose him.

"What are you going to do?" Fu Xingchuan asked casually.

Wen Zenian was actually planning to celebrate his mother's birthday a few days later. She had finally come to Jinghe, and Wen Zenian had planned a tour itinerary and wanted to ask Lin Luo to help him follow it. But Lin Luo only told Fu Xingchuan, "Shopping."

"Oh." Fu Xingchuan asked Wen Zenian, "Senior Brother Wen, you must be familiar with Jinghe!"

Wen Zenian: "It's okay!"

Fu Xingchuan: "Then could you please be our tour guide and show us around? We'd like to check out the surrounding development."

Lin Qi interrupted, "Didn't you go to college at Jinghe?"

Fu Xingchuan: "It's been a few years now, and some roads are hard to tell apart."

Lin Xiao: "You still need to do this kind of thing yourself"

Fu Xingchuan: "What's wrong with personally taking charge of a key project?"

Lin Qiao: "Technology is quite advanced nowadays, you don't know how to use navigation"

"Navigation is not humane at all," Fu Xingchuan said frivolously. "What do you think, Senior Brother Wen?"

"Mr. Fu, you're too polite. I'm just worried I can't do this job well."

"It's okay." Fu Xingchuan said with a smile, making Wen Zenian unable to refuse.

Lin Qi asked quietly, "What do you want to do?"

Fu Xingchuan looked innocent and said, "What can I do? I'm working hard to make money. Why do you think so badly of me?"

Because she understood him, Lin Luo remained silent.

When they arrived at Wutong Avenue, Wen Zenian took them to several places, all of which were quite distinctive check-in spots. Lin Luo walked silently at the end, and Fu Xingchuan deliberately slowed down his pace and walked side by side with her.

After walking around Wutong Avenue almost completely, it was almost noon. Lin Luo looked at Su Youyi limping along in her high heels and asked Fu Xingchuan, "Are you satisfied with my senior's service? Let's go our separate ways!"

Su Youyi breathed a sigh of relief, but Fu Xingchuan didn't want to separate from them. "I think the tour route planned by Senior Brother Wen is quite good. If you don't mind, can I go with you? If you're tired, you can go back first!"

"Okay!" Su Youyi smiled, but her stomach growled, and Lin Luo heard it.

The expression on her face turned awkward. Lin Xiao ignored her and glared at Fu Xingchuan, "Pay first. My senior brother is not your employee. I can't work for you for free."

Wen Zenian pursed his lips and said, "It's okay. Mr. Fu and you are family now. If I help him, I am helping you!"

"That won't work either." Lin Luo stretched out her hand to ask Fu Xingchuan for money. He placed his phone in her palm and said, "You know the password. Just send the amount you want."

Su Youyi thought she was done and was about to leave, but Lin Luo pulled her and pressed her onto the bench next to her. "Wait a moment."

Su Youyi looked at her in surprise as she ran away. Fu Xingchuan didn't understand what she was doing. Wen Zenian said, "There seems to be a travel agency over there."

You really can't afford to suffer any loss, Fu Xingchuan raised the corners of his lips, and Su Youyi lowered her head to look at the black high heels on her feet.

After a while, Lin Luo returned. Su Youyi noticed a pair of small white shoes. Then she heard Lin Luo say, "I bought them with my own money. They're not brand-name, but they're more comfortable to walk in than high heels. I'll just wear them for now. There's a delicious restaurant nearby. Come eat with us before we leave."

Su Youyi responded with a "hmm".

After saying this, Lin Luo stood up, walked over to Fu Xingchuan, and returned the phone to him. "It's based on the market price. I didn't cheat you."

Fu Xingchuan looked at her, and it seemed that she had run a few steps, and her face was a little red. He couldn't help but touch her head, "You really don't know how to save money for me."

Lin Luo took his head away and realized, "No, my share hasn't been calculated yet!"

She reached out to take Fu Xingchuan's cell phone, and he raised it deliberately. Lin Qiao stood on tiptoe to grab it, but she was not tall enough. She stared at Fu Xingchuan angrily.

There seemed to be frost on the ground. Lin Qi slipped into his arms when he lost his balance. Fu Xingchuan put his hand down and put his arm around her waist. "I already said that this money is for supporting my wife. Why are you robbing it? It won't cost you anything."

The perfume on his body seemed to smell like osmanthus, but Lin Luo did not push him away immediately.

Su Youyi changed into her white sneakers, stood up, and saw Fu Xingchuan holding Lin Luo with gentle eyes. She was wearing a white coat and leaning against him, and they were a perfect match.

Wen Zenian clearly wanted to let it go, but his heart still ached and he looked away.

Lin Luo was a little hungry, so she let go of Fu Xingchuan and touched the tip of her nose, "Let's go eat!"

The restaurant they went to was a fish noodle restaurant that Lin Luo and Wen Zenian often visited during their graduate studies. The fish they sold were all killed that day and were very fresh and authentic.

Su Youyi sat next to Wen Zenian, and they talked about what gift would be best for his mother.

Lin Luo wiped the table with paper and said, "The temple is small, Mr. Fu, please don't despise it."

"Did you come here often before?" Fu Xingchuan asked.

"Um."

"I used to go to the music store on the right side across the street often when I was in college, but I've never been here," he mentioned.

Lin Luoshou was stunned for a moment. It turned out that their life trajectories might have intersected, but the timelines were different.

After the ordered meal arrived, Su Youyi said to Wen Zenian, "How about sending flowers? Women all like flowers, and mothers are no exception."

"The flowers were ordered yesterday." Wen Zenian looked at the coriander in the bowl and remembered that Lin Luo didn't like to eat it.

He raised his eyes, wanting to see if there was any ginger in her bowl, but saw that Lin Luo had picked out all the ginger in the bowl and exchanged bowls with Fu Xingchuan.

Fu Xingchuan's expression was obviously dull for a moment, as he was surprised that she actually remembered that she didn't like Jiang.

"It tastes really good." Su Youyi was not squeamish at all and ate the noodles with big mouthfuls. Lin Luo smiled.

After dinner, Su Youyi had to go to the company for something and had to separate from them. She pulled Lin Luo aside, and Lin Luo said first, "Forget about the thank you!"

"Who wants to thank you?" Su Youyi said arrogantly, but she didn't hold on for long before speaking again, "I just want to say sorry to you."

Lin Luo was surprised. She listened carefully to her words, "Fu Xingchuan and I grew up together. The elders in our family always joked that we were betrothed. I was young and naive back then, and he was quite charming and nice to his friends, so I naturally fell in love with him."

"When he was fifteen, he went to Nan'an. After he came back, we didn't seem as close anymore. At that time, his family had a problem and needed my family's help. I was possessive and deliberately spread rumors at school, saying that we were together, but in fact, he didn't like me at all."

"There has always been someone living in his heart. When I received your call that night, as soon as I heard your voice, I guessed that person must be you."

It’s not her, Lin Luo said in her heart.

Su Youyi met her eyes and said sincerely, "I'm sorry. I was too naive at the time. I deleted the call records and didn't tell Fu Xingchuan that you called. Otherwise... you wouldn't have missed each other for so many years."

Lin Luo watched Fu Xingchuan and Wen Zenian talking in the distance. She shook her head. Everything was destined, including the missed opportunities. It didn't change because of her.

"It's all over." She said lightly.

No one knows how sad she was on that rainy night, and she doesn't know it now.
