"No. Shihang, long time no see."
"Yes, long time no see, I miss you." Cai Shihang said gently on the other end of the phone.
"Yeah, hehe." Lan Xiaolan smiled softly. Perhaps it was because she hadn't seen Cai Shihang for too long, and suddenly hearing her boyfriend gently say that he missed her, she felt a little uncomfortable.
If it weren't for this call, Lan Xiaolan would have almost forgotten that she had such a boyfriend. Cai Shihang was the son of her father's friend, and they met through a blind date forced by their elders.
Cai Shihang is a sunny boy who loves to laugh. He is usually very polite in his dealings with others and is very popular with his elders.
A few years ago, Ren's father saw Lan Xiaolan return to her hometown crying and stayed there for several days, locking herself in her room every day and not talking.
Father Ren guessed that his daughter might have been heartbroken and was sad.
I originally thought it was normal for young people to break up and get back together in love. At that time, Lan Xiaolan was about to graduate from college and was an independent and good child. Naturally, Lan's father did not ask too much about Lan Xiaolan's private affairs.
Let young people deal with their own emotional affairs.
But several years had passed since that time, and Lan Xiaolan had already entered her 30s. She just buried herself in her work and never looked for a boyfriend. She spent all day either with cultural relics or with corpses, which made her father very anxious.
So he asked people to introduce Lan Xiaolan to a blind date.
At first, Lan Xiaolan refused. Her mind was not on love at all. Now she just wanted to work hard all the time.
But because his father pushed him too hard, he had no choice but to meet Cai Shihang. Cai Shihang came from a well-off family that ran a construction materials factory, and he had some friendship with Lan's father.
This boy is very handsome, humorous, polite, and good at making people happy.
The most important point is that Cai Shihang doesn't mind at all that Lan Xiaolan often travels for work and stays in the cemetery for several months at a time.
Moreover, Cai Shihang fully respects her work and will not call her frequently to bother her, let alone ask her out for dinner for no reason.
This suited Lan Xiaolan's temperament perfectly. So Lan Xiaolan agreed to her father's request and tried to have a relationship with Cai Shihang.
Although Lan Xiaolan and Cai Shihang were nominally boyfriend and girlfriend, they had only met a few times during their relationship.
In many cases, they only meet each other because of gatherings of elders.
So in general, she and her current boyfriend are not actually familiar with each other.
"Uncle Ren told me that you've been working at a research institute in Province S. I happened to be here recently, and the institute is in the same city. If you're not busy, why not meet up?"
"It's true that I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you very much." Cai Shihang on the other end of the phone suddenly started to act coquettishly.
"But, I just happened to get a new job yesterday. I might need to stay here for a while these days. I can't confirm when it will end."
"Have you discovered any new ancient tombs?"
"Uh-huh, yes."
"Will that be difficult?"
"Well... a little bit." What Lan Xiaolan wanted to say was that the problem was not only the newly discovered ancient tomb, but also a troublesome person.
"Okay then." Cai Shihang said in a disappointed tone, "Don't forget to take good care of yourself while working. Remember to eat on time and get enough rest."
"Yeah, you're busy with work, so you have to take good care of yourself. I'll call you when I have time."
"Okay, I love you. Okay..." The sound of a kiss was heard from the other end of the phone. The voice was sweet, but why did Lan Xiaolan on the other end of the phone feel a little sour in her heart?
"Yeah, I...I miss you too." Lan Xiaolan finally squeezed out these few words, and the other party hung up the phone contentedly.
At this moment, there was silence around the room...
Ren Tingxi heard Lan Xiaolan's last words, "I miss you too." clearly and distinctly, and it was deafening!
She said just these few words to her current boyfriend and it had nothing to do with him.
Originally, there was no relationship between the two of them.
They have been broken up for 8 years, and Lan Xiaolan is an excellent girl. It is only natural for her to find a new boyfriend after the breakup.
But why does Ren Tingxi's heart feel so painful as if it were being cut by a knife?
Ren Tingxi picked up the laptop and typed carelessly on the keyboard. Perhaps this would help him calm down a little.
Lan Xiaolan hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.
But it's also strange. I just made a phone call with my boyfriend, so why do I feel relieved?
Lan Xiaolan didn't want to think about anything anymore. She picked up her clothes and went to the bathroom.
What she needed to do now was to take a shower and rest, because there were still many things waiting for her to deal with when she woke up.
When I passed by the living room, I only saw Ren Tingxi's back, typing calmly on the keyboard without saying a word.
Lan Xiaolan had just finished a phone call with her current boyfriend in the room, and now she saw her ex-boyfriend working in the living room. This feeling was really strange.
She took off her clothes and turned on the hot water in the bathroom. The warm steam hit her face. The moist warm water hit her body, washing away the fatigue in her body.
Lan Xiaolan squinted her hazy eyes and looked at the white area in front of her. She suddenly felt dizzy and her mind went blank.
Her whole body felt weak and a little sore. She didn't feel tired when she was working, but as soon as she relaxed she felt pain all over.
