Chapter 130 Superstition
A mobile phone is a very private personal item, and Xu Qingwu did not want to find out whether there were any secrets in Cen Xihuai's phone.
But his action was too obvious.
Cen Xihuai coughed lightly to ease the awkwardness: "Something's going on."
Xu Qingwu said "oh", thinking that they might be discussing some cooperation involving company secrets that it was not convenient for her to know.
"Have you showered yet?"
"No, I'm waiting for you to come home."
"Then go wash up first. I'll play with the cat for a while and then come up."
"good."
Cen Xihuai got up and went upstairs.
He had just been browsing the forum to learn how to confess his love, and wanted to give Xu Qingwu a surprise, so he naturally didn't want her to see it, so he subconsciously hid his phone.
Xu Qingwu played with the puppy for a while, and went upstairs only when she thought Cen Xihuai had almost finished washing.
After taking a shower, it was barely early and the new week had come.
Xu Qingwu asked him: "Do you want to do it tonight?"
Cen Xihuai shook his head: "No, let's go to sleep."
Xu Qingwu was a little confused. He was not like this usually. Even if she didn't mention it, he would want it.
What happened today?
Worried that Cen Xihuai might have encountered something bad, Xu Qingwu asked with concern: "How are you doing recently? Is your work going well?"
"Yeah, it's good."
"Is everything alright?"
"No."
After receiving his affirmative answer, Xu Qingwu felt relieved and turned off the lights to sleep.
The next day, when Xu Qingwu went to the cloakroom to change clothes, her eyes were attracted by the glass cabinet where Cen Xihuai kept his ties.
Glass cabinets that used to be dominated by black and gray are now available in half bright colors: dark green, wine red, indigo, dark blue... The styles have also evolved from simple solid colors to plaid, stripes, and geometric...
After Xu Qingwu changed her clothes and went downstairs, she saw Cen Xihuai wearing a silver-gray tie and a silver tie clip. The bright colors neutralized his usual dullness and really brightened her eyes.
Why does he suddenly like dressing up?
Xu Qingwu was a little confused.
But it really works well and is very kind to her eyes. Just for this face, she even ate an extra steamed bun and half a fried dough stick in the morning.
Looking at the handsome guy makes her feel happy, and she has a smile on her face even when she sits at her workstation.
At the dinner party yesterday, colleagues got to know each other quite well. The colleague next to her joked with her, "Qingwu, is there something good happening so early in the morning?"
"No."
"You seem to be in a good mood."
"Maybe I slept better last night and I feel more energetic."
"That's good. We're going to be tortured soon. I heard this project is not easy to do."
Seeing the colleague with a sad face, Xu Qingwu felt a sinking feeling in his heart and asked her about the situation.
It turns out that Party A of this project is the seller and now wants to sell the amusement park. However, the actual owner of the amusement park is the chairman's daughter. The chairman's daughter is unwilling to sell it, but Party A has to sell it in order to raise funds. Now there is an additional problem and they have to convince the chairman's daughter.
Sure enough, as soon as everyone arrived, the team leader asked them to go to the conference room for a meeting.
In the afternoon, the group went to visit the chairman's daughter to find out why she was unwilling to sell the amusement park, but they were turned away and refused to cooperate.
According to the information provided by Party A, this is an old-fashioned amusement park, with furnishings that look like they were designed ten years ago. It has not introduced some of the exciting projects that are popular nowadays and seems to be out of touch with the times. There are few tourists and naturally no revenue. It has been making a loss since its opening, so they are eager to sell it.
After dinner, Xu Qingwu asked Cen Xihuai if he wanted to go out for a walk. Cen Xihuai readily agreed, and the two of them went to the amusement park together.
Xu Qingwu bought two night tickets and waved to Cen Xihuai: "I'll treat you to fun."
Cen Xihuai curled his lips and said okay.
There were almost no tourists inside, only a few staff members.
The two of them wandered around aimlessly.
Xu Qingwu asked him, "What do you think of this amusement park?"
"The facilities are outdated, the tourist experience is poor, there is a shortage of customers, and there is a lack of innovation. It should be operating at a loss, and closing is the best option."
"You're right." Xu Qingwu sighed lightly.
"Why do you ask that?"
"This amusement park belongs to our partner company, Party A, and they're looking to sell it."
"Then why are you sighing?"
"This amusement park is a bit like the one next to my home when I was a child. My parents often took me there. There was a bear parade every Sunday at that amusement park. Unfortunately, it was demolished a few years ago to make way for a shopping mall."
As times change, new things will inevitably replace old things. Some beautiful things will be swept away by the tide of the times and may only exist in memories.
"I want to ride the Ferris wheel."
"Okay, I'll accompany you."
Hearing Xu Qingwu's call, the staff slowly came over to turn on the camera for them. The two of them sat in the fully transparent glass cabin and looked at the bustling night view across the river.
"Cen Xihuai, there's a particularly old-fashioned legend. I wonder if you've heard of it."
"Tell me about it?"
"Legend has it that couples who ride a Ferris wheel together will break up."
He interrupted: "We won't, we are husband and wife."
"I haven't finished yet." Xu Qingwu couldn't help laughing, "He also said that if we kiss at the highest point, we will be together forever."
Cen Xihuai asked: "How do you determine when it is at its highest point?"
"Good question... I don't know either."
"Then let's kiss longer, we can always reach the highest point."
"Didn't you say we were husband and wife..."
Xu Qingwu's words were swallowed between Cen Xihuai's lips and tongue. He held her face with his warm palm and kissed her gently.
I don’t know how long they kissed, until they clearly felt the Ferris wheel falling for a while, Cen Xihuai let go of her and wiped the water stains from her lips.
Xu Qingwu's cheeks flushed red from his kiss: "Cen Xihuai, why do you still believe this?"
"I'm superstitious." He said it with confidence.
He would not allow anything that could destroy their marriage, even if it was just a legend.
The two of them played a few other games, and when they got off the carousel, Xu Qingwu suddenly heard very soft sobbing sounds.
It was a girl who looked to be in her twenties or thirties. Xu Qingwu walked over and handed her a pack of tissues, then left with Cen Xihuai without interfering in any other matter.

A new day early in the morning.
Xu Qingwu saw Cen Xihuai wearing a dark green suit and with his hair down, he looked a bit romantic.
"This is the first time I see you wearing this color."
"How about it?"
"nice."
Cen Xihuai thought to himself that he could actually get praise from Xu Qingwu by making the changes mentioned in the forum. It really is true that one can never stop learning.
When Xu Qingwu arrived downstairs at the law firm, he was queuing up to buy coffee. When he opened WeChat, he saw the message sent by Cen Yue in the group.
"I applied for divorce registration today and am waiting for Qi Gou at the Civil Affairs Bureau."
Xu Qingwu typed: "Did he agree to come?"
Cen Yue: "He's here. Let me get down to business first."
The two met at the door of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Cen Yue's belly is already a little bulging, but fortunately it is winter now, and her belly is not obvious at all when she wears a coat.
Qi Yan had blue stubble on his chin, dark circles under his eyes, and a faint smell of alcohol on his body.
"If you take this step today, there will really be no possibility for us in the future."
Qi Yan looked at her hopefully: "Cen Yue, you still have a chance to regret."
