He walked slowly, his eyes slightly moist, and when he reached the door of his home, he looked back to normal. Mu Chen opened the door and saw her: "Why are you back just now? Where's Brother Xu?" He smiled awkwardly, "I thought he would take you upstairs."
Mu Tong shook her head gently: "He won't."
As the end of the year approaches, Xu Jun's company is preparing for an IPO, and he has become very busy. It often takes ten days or half a month before I have time to sit in a bookstore. His expression also seemed to have become less good, and occasionally his subordinates would talk about it, guessing that he must have broken up with that mysterious girlfriend.
A few days before the New Year, Xu Jun booked a hot spring club in the suburbs of the city to hold the company's annual meeting. As usual, Xu Xu was given a few VIP reception tickets.
It was already past nine o'clock when the meeting ended, and the employees scattered around the club to have fun. Xu Jun has been particularly tired these days and didn't want to go out to play. He just lay in the innermost open-air private hot spring, which is only for men. He guessed that Ji Bai should be here by now.
Sure enough, after soaking for a while, he heard footsteps. Xu Jun didn't turn around. The man stood by the pool and asked softly, "Xu Xu, are you there?"
Xu Jun opened his eyes suddenly and saw Mu Tong, whom he hadn't seen for many days, standing by the steaming water wearing only a swimsuit.
Through the mist, as if through clouds, Xu Jun looked at her quietly.
The woman's body, wrapped in a swimsuit, looks even more charming and attractive, but her face is extremely calm and pure. The two temperaments intertwine, mysterious and quiet. Finally, Xu Jun's gaze fell on her beautiful neck, which was as white as jade, and he felt his throat tighten a little.
It was purely accidental that Mu Tong went to the wrong hot spring. First, she had never been here before, and second, the waiter told her that it was the one on the left. But the waiter's left side was her right side. The waiter also told her that Xu Xu ordered lavender essential oil today. She smelled the scent of lavender at the door of the hot spring room where Xu Jun was.
The waiter forgot to mention that Xu Jun’s preferences were the same as Xu Xu’s.
Xu Jun stood up from the water, walked to her, and looked at her by the pool: "Why didn't you smell it was me?"
Mu Tong was slightly startled: "I'm sorry!"
The hot spring water covered up his scent, how could he smell it? But now that his body was close, the heat radiating from the man's muscles was more obvious than ever before.
Her face turned red, and she turned to leave, but her foot slipped and she was about to fall. Xu Jun raised his hand and held her waist.
How on earth did he push her over to the edge of the pool and start kissing her passionately? Every time Xu Jun thought about it, his mind felt a little confused, but his body felt very clear. He only remembered her fair, soft body and the feeling of holding it in his arms. The first time he touched it, he didn't want to let go.
The air was thick with fog and the lights were dim. Even though they had only known each other for over a year, Xu Jun felt as if he had been suppressed for many years. He kissed her cheeks, neck, shoulders, waist... inch by inch. Mu Tong, who had never been intimate with a man, lay by the pond like a water lily, breathing slightly, allowing him to ravage her body.
That night Xu Jun returned to his room and fell asleep quickly. He had a dream about the first time he met Ye Zixi. She was a junior at the time and he was a freshman. She is a well-known talented woman with many suitors, but she ignores everyone. The girls' building where she lived was right next to the freshman boys' dormitory. Every evening, she could be seen walking gracefully along the long tree-lined avenue. After all, the queen's demeanor was so compelling that the young men could only watch. Xu Jun specially wore a new T-shirt that day, took a thick classic, and sat by the tree-lined avenue. When she passed by, he approached her and said, "Hello, senior sister. I'm Xu Jun from the freshman year."
Ye Zixi stood in the sunset and looked back at him, a smile slowly appearing on her face.
"How about I treat you to dinner tonight?"
"good."
What did she say later when she decided to withdraw?
Xu Jun, I love you, but maybe I don’t love you enough. Sorry, I give up.
No, Zixi, it’s not that you don’t have enough.
It's because I didn't love you enough that you left me.
The next morning, Xu Jun received a call from the Shanghai Stock Exchange saying that there was an urgent matter, so he hurried back to the company. As the car drove out of the hot spring club, he suddenly remembered the scene when he sent Mu Tong back to her room from the hot spring yesterday. She stood at the door of the room with a blushing face, a bright light in her eyes, and whispered, "See you tomorrow."
He didn't answer, just nodded and said, "Go to bed early."
Once Xu Jun gets busy, he can't stop.
One day, two days, three days.
It’s not that I don’t have free time, but when I was tired and took out my phone, I saw Mu Tong’s number but couldn’t dial it.
To advance or to retreat, to grasp or to let go?
It's not that he is indecisive, it's just that she is not an ordinary person. She is blind, she is extremely sharp, and she is extremely pure.
If I start with her, how can I bear to stop?
Once he starts being with her, it will be the rest of his life. He doesn’t know if he can still spend the rest of his life with another person.
On the morning of the fourth day, the work finally came to an end. Xu Jun had not slept for several days. The secretary said, Mr. Xu, you should go home and sleep first, there is nothing important to do next. Xu Jun nodded and drove to the bookstore first.
It was already noon when we arrived, and the winter sun shone on the glass door, sparkling and warm. Xu Jun's heart, which had become a little stiff and cold because of work, suddenly became comfortable.
He pushed open the door and strode into the store.
The shop assistants were all startled when they saw him.
He looked around but didn't see Mu Tong. A clerk stepped forward hesitantly and said, "Mr. Xu, Sister Mu had something to do and took a bus back to her hometown last night."
The clerk added with some concern: "Sister Mu has not closed the store for 24 hours these days and has been staying here the whole time. I don't know what happened."
Xu Jun's heart skipped a beat.
She was waiting for him for three days.
Xu Jun came out of the bookstore and called his secretary: "I'm leaving Lin City for a while. I have something to look after these days." The secretary was embarrassed: "Mr. Xu, I was just about to call you. The president of the fund company is here to visit..."
Xu Jun couldn't leave, so he called Xu Xu and said, "Go and find Mu Tong for me."
Xu Xu was always slow to realize things about men and women, but after hearing his tone, he also sensed something was wrong: "You guys..."
"Well, here we go."
Xu Xu rarely gets excited, but this time he was secretly excited. As soon as he got off work, he rushed to the "crime scene" - Mu Tong's bookstore, to find out what happened.
According to the clerk, Mu Tong received a call from his hometown that night and left in a hurry, without taking many clothes with him. Xu Xu was relieved, thinking that he had something urgent to do and would be back soon. Why is Xu Jun so anxious?
The book she was reading that day was still on the table, it was "One Hundred Years of Solitude", and there was a pen next to it. Xu Xu picked it up and flipped through it, and was stunned.
Later that day, Xu Xu took the book to find Xu Jun.
Xu Juan was still working overtime at the company. When he saw her, he was slightly startled: "Did you find the person?"
Xu Xu opened the book and pointed to a line of braille at the bottom of the first page: "Do you know what this means?"
Xu Jun knew that those were comments written by Mu Tong, but of course he didn't understand and shook his head.
"This violates Mu Tong's privacy, but I decided to read it to you anyway." Xu Xu sighed inexplicably.
"Do you know Braille?"
"Well, I took some time to look at the Braille comparison table and I can basically recognize it."
Xu Xu took the book and read slowly: "December 7th, I first met Mr. Xu."
Xu Jun's expression froze as he listened to Xu Xu continue reading:
"His voice was very low, but I could still hear it clearly from such a distance. He chuckled and said to the manager, 'Mu Tong is my friend.' Actually, at that time, I didn't know him at all.
"He smelled faintly of tobacco, alcohol, and a very clean aura, different from everyone else. Mu Chen said that Mr. Xu in the magazine looked very charming. But I couldn't imagine what kind of person he should be, with such a cold tone, but he lent a helping hand to us who met by chance.
"On February 9, he came to my shop for the first time and borrowed a copy of White Horse Roaring in the West Wind. It turned out that he also read martial arts novels.
"On March 12, I went to the police station to cooperate with the investigation. He drove me home and we didn't talk much. He was completely different from those criminal police officers. He was very quiet. But Xu Xu said that he was obviously a very outgoing person.
"April 6, Qingming Festival. He came to the store very late. He felt very sad, and I finally determined that he had been missing someone.
"On December 27th, he kissed me.
'Today is already the third day I have been waiting for him, but I still may not be able to see him.
"That man has always lived in the past. I don't feel sad, I just feel heartache. When I hear his voice and smell his scent, I feel so heartbroken. How could there be such a man..."
Two days later, in the morning, before Xu Jun woke up, he received a call from his assistant.
"Mr. Xu, he's back. He just arrived at the store."
Xu Jun sat up from the bed suddenly.
He arranged the assistant to keep watch near Mu Tong's home, and told him to notify him immediately if he saw Mu Tong within 24 hours. Xu Jun looked down at his watch and saw that he had a meeting at nine in the morning. He immediately washed up, changed into a clean suit, and called the flower shop, who quickly sent over a large bouquet of white roses.
When he was about to leave, he saw her book on the table, picked it up and put it in his pocket.
What should I say in the first sentence?
His former lover was as proud as a peacock and unforgettable.
Nowadays, the woman he likes is as quiet as a migratory bird.
She wasn't the only one waiting, he had also been waiting for too many years.
Time flies, and we all need a little more courage. Let’s start falling in love today, okay?
