Chapter 128 First Love, What's Worth Remembering
These four words are colder than an ice cellar in winter.
Just for fun?
The color drained from An Ning's face, turning pale in an instant. The hand holding the phone trembled uncontrollably.
Then she heard someone ask in surprise, "Brother Yan is having sex now, who is it with?"
Someone else asked, "Which celebrity?"
"Brother Yan, is this true?"
"Too many questions." Lu Xiyan's voice was deep and contained a hint of laughter. "It's not in the question."
Liang Xu on the side couldn't help but look at him a few times, thinking for a moment, with a smile on his face, as if he knew something but also seemed unsure.
Seeing Lu Xiyan sharing so generously, everyone started to have fun.
The next round of games started in the box.
Lu Xiyan took a sip of wine and his eyes fell on the door again.
The person at the door hadn't left yet, nor had he pushed the door open to question him.
Like he wanted to hear something exciting.
He lifted his lips slightly.
An Ning, how do you feel about hearing such heart-wrenching words?
"Damn it! Brother Yan, you lost again!"
"This is a matter of course. Someone who never plays games has now been given the opportunity, right?"
A few people laughed and asked him truth or dare.
Lu Xiyan still chose the truth.
In this round, a few people wanted to have some fun, so they threw out some of the less serious questions in the truth or doubt game, leaving only a few shocking ones.
"Hey, I told you guys not to play too big." Liang Xu couldn't help but remind them.
He didn't know what was wrong with Lu Xiyan at the moment, and he looked like he was going to reveal his secrets.
Lu Xiyan didn't think there was anything wrong, and his handsome face always looked calm and composed.
"Draw one!" Chen Yan drew a question and threw it on the table excitedly.
Suddenly, the smile on his face froze.
Several pairs of eyes saw the question, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
Although everyone wanted to play something exciting, no one wanted to play something this exciting.
This question touched upon Lu Xiyan's minefield.
As soon as Tan Xiaomin saw the question, she fearlessly picked it up and read it out loud, "Is your first love still with you? If not, do you still miss him/her?"
The surroundings fell into silence, and the air suddenly dropped.
This is a minefield, a reverse scale.
For four years, no one dared to ask questions about that person in front of Lu Xiyan.
Liang Xu saw the man's eyes darken for a moment, and said quickly, "What's the point of asking this question? Change it to another one."
"Yes, yes, what a rubbish question." Chen Yan quickly replied.
"Oh!"
The man's eyes were dark, and when he looked up, he looked cold and distant, as if he was keeping people at a distance.
"I've forgotten it."
His voice was clear and lazy. "What's there to be remembered?"
His tone was frivolous and cold, making it difficult to tell whether it was true or false.
At the door, An Ning listened to his answer. Her throat felt like it was blocked by cement, and her breathing was so difficult that her body was shaking.
At some point, her eyes turned red.
She looked up through the crack in the door into the box, but she couldn't see him.
It was just a door away, but she didn't have the courage to step in.
The hand that wanted to knock on the door slowly dropped down.
In the box, the man stared at the door with deep eyes.
I saw the figure quietly retreating, as if about to leave.
The thing in my hand was suddenly squeezed tightly.
"peaceful?"
Suddenly a voice sounded outside the box.
Upon hearing the sound, the people in the box subconsciously looked towards the door.
An Ning was just about to leave when she ran into Cheng Wanwan.
She said in a tone that said she didn't know how she got here, "Why don't you come in?"
After saying that, she "enthusiastically" took An Ning's arm and generously pushed open the door of the box.
The door of the box was wide open and the lights inside were dim.
All eyes in the room were focused on the door and fell on the woman next to Cheng Wanwan.
Almost in an instant, An Ning's gaze looked towards the box, and when it met that cold gaze, her chest trembled violently.
She stood at the door and finally saw the man sitting on the sofa clearly.
He was wearing a suit and tie, his shirt buttoned to the top, his tie neatly tied, and the diamonds inlaid on his collar clip and brooch reflected a sparse light.
In such a luxurious club, he was neatly dressed and had an abstinent and noble temperament, which was in stark contrast to the environment. However, the more contrasting his temperament was, the more people could not help but be moved.
The more excited you are, the more painful it is.
He sat on the sofa, his legs crossed, his posture relaxed, a glass in his slender hands.
His eyes were calm and cold, as if he was not surprised at her appearance at the door.
Liang Xu looked at the person at the door, then at the man next to him.
I can probably guess why he just went crazy playing games.
The atmosphere became strangely awkward again.
"peaceful!"
Lu Manni saw who it was and stood up immediately. "It's really you. When did you come?"
"Yeah, An Ning, why don't you come in now?" Cheng Wanwan asked deliberately, "Why are you standing at the door like an idiot? We're all friends, and we won't eat you."
An Ning withdrew her gaze from the man, holding back the tears that were about to fall, and looked at Lu Manni with a smile on her lips. "Sorry, I didn't know you were having a party. I came here to do something."
After saying that, she looked at Chen Yan in the box and smiled generously, "Huohuo, long time no see, happy birthday."
Everyone looked at her with more or less surprise and embarrassment.
In the past, she could fit into this circle easily and joke with everyone of them.
At this moment, she seemed like an outsider who had accidentally barged in, and was out of place in their atmosphere.
It made her want to escape.
"Sorry everyone, I was just..." she made an excuse, "Just passing by."
"You guys keep playing."
After saying that, she turned and left.
"peaceful."
Lu Manni quickly pulled her back, a little reluctantly, "We haven't seen each other for a long time, why don't you sit down and get together?"
"Yeah, An Ning, now that you're here, why don't you play with everyone?" Tan Xiaomin said, looking very excited. "Today is Huo Huo's birthday, you wouldn't come here just to spoil the fun, would you?"
No one here should like her, not to mention that Xiyan's fiancée is here too. Tan Xiaomin wants to see how An Ning, her ex-wife, gets along here.
An Ning certainly knew what Cheng Wanwan and Tan Xiaomin's intention was in asking her to stay, but she didn't care.
What she cares about is his attitude.
An Ning's gaze swept across the man who remained silent not far away, as if her appearance had nothing to do with him.
She suddenly understood that Lu Xiyan deliberately asked her to come to him, deliberately said those words in front of their friends, and deliberately embarrassed her.
She curled her lips slightly, "Okay."
Looking at Chen Yan, she asked politely, "Huo Huo, don't you mind?"
Chen Yan used to call An Ning "sister-in-law" and "sister-in-law" before and after, and An Ning was used to calling him by his nickname "Huo Huo" just like Lu Xiyan. The better their relationship was before, the deeper his resentment towards her became when he left.
Four years later, Chen Yan stopped asking questions and glanced at Lu Xiyan, who was holding the wine glass calmly. He did not refuse, which meant he agreed.
"Of course I don't mind." Chen Yan said, "It's been a long time since we last met. Come stay and have a few drinks together."
An Ning nodded and found a seat at the edge, which was exactly the farthest distance from Lu Xiyan.
"Sorry everyone, I'm late because of something. I thought it was a party for you guys and didn't want to disturb you. But when Manny mentioned it, I realized it was Huo Huo's birthday."
Cheng Wanwan found a decent excuse for herself and said to Chen Yan with a smile, "Huohuo, I'll give you the birthday present another day."
After that, she naturally sat down next to Lu Xiyan and asked with a smile, "Xiyan, what game were you playing just now? It looked quite fun."
Tan Xiaomin glanced at An Ning and continued, "Since Wanwan and An Ning are here, let's continue."
No one refused, and a new round of the game began, with An Ning joining in.
I don’t know if it was a coincidence or intentional, but An Ning was selected as soon as she participated.
"An Ning, truth or dare?" Lu Manni asked her gently, "Just choose one. If you don't want to choose either, then have a drink."
She brought a glass of juice to An Ning and said, "I remember you don't drink alcohol, so you can use juice instead."
Lu Manni's action warmed An Ning's heart, and she noticed a sharp look looking at her.
Under the dim light, those eyes were bright and cold.
Meeting that gaze, An Ning picked up the plaque with the words "Truth" and moved it aside.
"A big adventure."
