Because of her words, the atmosphere of banter in the box fell silent for a moment.
I followed the direction she turned and saw Zhou Fang.
The man's bony long fingers pinched the wine glass, the cuffs of his dark shirt were casually rolled up, revealing his lean forearms, and his watch reflected a cool and dim light.
Hearing the sound, he raised his eyebrows and glanced over casually, and we looked at each other in mid-air.
He is indeed still alive.
I was surprised and delighted, feeling happy from the inside out, and the corners of my lips unconsciously raised, "Zhou..."
When I was about to say something, I suddenly realized that the look in his eyes when he looked at me was completely cold, as if he was born to be heartless and desireless.
It's no different from looking at a stranger.
The man looked at me leisurely, as if waiting for me to speak first, but also seemed a little puzzled.
It was like a bucket of cold water poured over my head, cutting off all my words.
The other people in the box also looked at me in confusion.
Two of them were seen at Shen Xingyu’s birthday party two years ago.
Zhou Fang’s childhood friend.
The woman who opened the door earlier asked, "What do you want from him?"
I pursed my lips and forced a smile. "No... nothing, I just didn't expect to run into him in Jiangcheng. Sorry to bother you, I'm leaving now!"
He is alive or dead.
I fled back to the box, and Jiang Lai came over. "What's wrong? Did you meet someone you know?"
"No."
I shook my head and changed the subject, "Let's eat quickly, I'm hungry."
Lu Shiyan talked to me about Jiang Yunshu's life again.
After the previous incident, I always felt a little uneasy during the meal.
But I didn’t expect that the love didn’t end there.
When the show was over, Lu Shiyan went to the front hall to pay the bill first.
As Jiang Lai and I walked out, the door of another private room opened.
The woman who had come out earlier pushed the wheelchair and stopped Zhou Fang from removing the thin blanket from his legs. She was very intimate and forceful, "Have you forgotten what the doctor said? Just hold it there."
The man who had never listened to anyone before didn't say anything in reply. He just pulled his lower lip and said lazily, "I know, stop nagging."
Jiang Lai looked at him in surprise, then looked at me.
I shook my head slightly, "Let's go."
As we were about to pass by each other, the woman called me and spoke with a smile.
"Zhou Fang's... just an ordinary friend. He changed his contact information. Did you know? Do you want to add him on WeChat so we can keep in touch in the future?"
Zhou Fang glanced at her sideways, his emotion difficult to discern.
I wasn't sure about their relationship, and I was afraid it was some kind of test. I didn't want to cause any more trouble, so I glanced at Zhou Fang's legs, suppressed the urge to ask, and spoke half-answering, half-explaining.
"No need. He and I are just ordinary friends. We haven't been in touch for more than two days. Don't get me wrong."
Yes.
Two pieces are more than enough.
Actually, it’s not that we haven’t contacted each other. In many difficult moments late at night when everyone was asleep, I had dialed that familiar phone number.
But, we haven't been able to get in touch.
At one point, I even wondered if he was really dead.
Oh, he is not dead.
That's enough.
I said, and walked out.
Zhou Fang suddenly spoke with a hint of mockery: "How about adding someone, Mrs. Fu? Or is it that Mr. Fu is too strict and doesn't allow you to add people of the opposite sex on WeChat?"
I was slightly stunned.
Before I could say anything, Jiang Lai took the phone from me, turned around with a smile, and handed over the WeChat QR code. "Mr. Zhou, you, a woman with a beautiful woman, are not worried. So why should Ruan Ruan, a single dog, be worried?"
Zhou Fang scanned the code, her long eyelashes half covering her brown eyes, and she smiled, "What's going on? Mrs. Fu, are you going to quarrel at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed again?"
"Ruan Ruan this time is..."
"That's it, Laila."
I grabbed Jiang Lai and left immediately.
He already has a girlfriend, so there's no need to explain too much.
…
Only when my figure completely disappeared around the corner did Zhou Fang retract his gaze and glanced at Zhou Qing indifferently.
"What do you want to do?"
"What do I want to do?"
Zhou Qing pointed at his phone and said, "I'm asking for your WeChat ID for an ordinary friend like you. How are you going to repay me?"
Zhou Fang said coldly, "No need."
Zhou Qing smiled and asked, "Then why did you call me back just now?"
“…”
"Who taught you this tactic of playing hard to get to pursue girls? It's already outdated." Zhou Qing looked down on her.
Zhou Fang disagreed, "Zhou Qing, has anyone ever told you that you're quite pretty when you're silent?"
Zhou Qing was not happy to hear this. "You can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth. You deserve to be single for twenty years."
"Get lost."
Zhou Fang licked his back teeth with the tip of his tongue and cursed with a smile.
【I passed your friend verification request】
A new message suddenly popped up on WeChat. He lowered his eyes and waited for a moment, but the other party did not send any message.
That's her style.
A couple can leave without any hesitation and break up without any conscience.
Maybe it was because the filter he had when he was a child was too thick, so no matter what she did, he couldn't hate her.
But, I don't want to let her go so easily.
Lest she forget her lesson.
Zhou Fang clicked on her profile picture. It was dusk, and she was leaning against the balcony railing, staring blankly at Fang Cheng in the living room.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, she exuded an indescribable loneliness.
For some unknown reason, his heart seemed to be tugged at by something.
After a pause, he lightly touched her circle of friends with his fingertips.
Quite scary.
Afraid of seeing her show affection.
I'm afraid of seeing her living too happily.
What's more, I'm afraid she will see that she is still not living a good life and Fu Qichuan still bullies her.
However, there is only one line:
She has never posted to Moments on WeChat.
When they got home, Zhou Qing suddenly snatched his phone away and said, "Don't look at it. In just two hours, you've worn out her profile picture."
Zhou Fang was unhappy: "Give it back to me."
"Your eyesight has only just recovered a few days, and you're already clinging to electronic gadgets. Do you really want to lose your eyesight?"
After Zhou Qing finished speaking, he seemed to remember something and said, "She seems to think of me as your girlfriend. You should find a chance to explain it to her first, so as not to push her further away."
"Should I explain?"
Zhou Fang was so angry that he wanted to laugh, "Dream on."
She didn't even give him an explanation, but instead asked him to explain?
He's not that eager.
Just ordinary friends.
Just an ordinary friend.
…
I came out of the shower and there was a midsummer rainstorm, the size of soybeans, hitting the glass, making crackling sounds.
Jiang Lai held two wine glasses in one hand and a bottle of red wine in the other.
"Are you still okay?"
She handed over a wine glass.
I nodded and handed her the bottle opener. "Here it is."
Jiang Lai carefully observed my expression and told the truth, "He has a girlfriend."
"He deserves it."
If he were still in a wheelchair, the past two days would have been the most difficult for him.
He was so arrogant, I wonder how much effort it took for him to accept reality.
I should be happy for him that he has someone by his side.
Jiang Lai poured some wine and sat cross-legged on the carpet, leaning against the sofa. He gently clinked his glass with mine and asked, "What about you?"
I chuckled, "I have you."
She looked at me with interest and smiled, "Then, from now on, you won't prioritize love over friendship?"
"No……"
I was about to speak when a WeChat message popped up on my phone.
[Li Li, my legs hurt]
——Zhou Fang.
I was slightly stunned, put down my glass, and thought for a moment before replying: [Ask your girlfriend to give you a hot compress and massage.]
That's my cousin.
She went out to play
Do you have time?
The opponent replied with three messages in one second.
