she is wary of him
There are some drawings in front of Situ Lu, which Lu Xiaoxiao handed to him. He really has something to say, but Situ Lu doesn't want to talk about these things now. Her brother's affairs will probably make her very busy.
, I can't cause any more trouble to her.
He made this call just because he wanted to comfort her.
After hesitating for a moment, Situ Lu found a safer explanation: "I met President Mu when I went to Mu's yesterday, and I heard about your brother. Xiaoxiao, how are you, are you okay? Your brother is better.
Is it done?"
Lu Xiaoxiao bit her lip and smiled bitterly. Situ Lu really asked a big question. How her brother is doing now, even she, the sister, doesn’t know. Although her heart is filled with such a sense of powerlessness, Lu Xiaoxiao
He still answered Situ Lu's concern: "Thank you for your concern. I'm fine, and so is my brother. His injury has healed."
Since Lu Yu has woken up and can leave on his own, he should be fine. Lu Xiaoxiao is also a very organized person and knows that if Lu Yu had not gone to Tao Zi and the others, Tao Zi and the others would have called her early today.
The beating also meant that Lu Yu had already joined them, so she didn't need to worry too much. As for her, although she wasn't doing well, she didn't want Situ Lu to know.
She really didn't feel the need to let everyone know about this kind of thing.
After Situ Lu heard this, he paused for a while. To be honest, he didn't know what to say, but Lu Xiaoxiao spoke first: "Lu, is there something wrong with the drawing? You also called me yesterday. It must be
Something is wrong."
"I'm not in a hurry. I still have a lot of time. What I'm more worried about now is you. Are you really okay? Your voice sounds a little tired. Did you not get a good rest?" Situ Lu's voice was full of worry.
Although he knew she was with Mu Shaoqing, his worry about Lu Xiaoxiao did not diminish one bit.
Situ Lu's kindness made Lu Xiaoxiao feel a little guilty. He had always been a person who cared about her very much and was a good friend, but she was always wary of him. Those eyes that looked so much like Ye Shuo made her feel sad.
There is inevitably a gap. Because of these eyes, she feels kind to Situ Lu, and because of these eyes, Lu Xiaoxiao doesn't want to get very close to him.
The feeling of betraying Ye Shuo made her uncomfortable.
But now, facing Situ Lu's concern, Lu Xiaoxiao felt that her thoughts were really bad. If others are sincere to you, you should also be sincere to them. This is the most basic principle of human communication.
Situ Lu is not a bad person, and he has no evil intentions towards her. She should be more sincere to him.
"Okay, I'm a little bad, but it's not because of my brother, it's because of other reasons. Lu, I want to revise the manuscript quickly. It will probably take less than three months. When will you have time? If it's convenient
Let’s meet and talk.” After taking a breath, Lu Xiaoxiao did not continue to say that she was fine, but honestly answered Situ Lu’s worries.
Situ Lu raised his hand and looked at his watch. He didn't ask any more questions on the phone, but said, "Where are you? I have time now, so I'll pick you up."
Lu Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, but did not refuse. He said, "I'm at my own home. Please come over."
"Okay, I understand. I'll be there in half an hour. I'll call you when I get there and you can come down again. It's a bit windy outside." After saying this, Situ Lu hung up the phone and got up to change clothes, changing quickly.
After finishing his clothes and picking up the drawing, Situ Lu walked to the door and saw the women's clothing bag in front of the door.
There were Lu Xiaoxiao's clothes. Standing in front of the clothes, Situ Lu hesitated for a few seconds.
According to the gentleman's demeanor, he should bring the clothes to Lu Xiaoxiao, but at this time, he had another selfish idea in his heart. This clothes was an opportunity to meet again, and he never wanted to waste such an opportunity.
After only hesitating for a few seconds, Situ Lu opened the door and left.
Here Lu Xiaoxiao was curled up in a ball on the bed, her thoughts drifting a little far away. She was making plans for the future. After meeting Mu Heng, she originally wanted to reject Paris's invitation. When she walked out of Mu Heng's house,
, I was happy for a moment.
She was very happy because she felt that she did not have to leave him and could continue to be by his side. But now she was not sure.
The rapid changes in fate made her at a loss, and how well she understood Mu Shaoqing. Mu Shaoqing was arrogant and had a strong self-esteem. She might really have to leave him in exchange for this secret.
If, if there is really no way to stay, she chooses to leave.
She didn't know when it started, but his aura was flowing everywhere in City A. If she wanted to leave Mu Shaoqing, she really didn't know how she could continue to stay in this city.
What this place gave her, apart from those flashing memories, was farewells one after another. Each farewell was enough to break her heart and hurt her heart. If even Mu Shaoqing wanted to say goodbye to her, then she would have no choice but to go
Somewhere else.
At least that way she can miss this place from a distance, all the pain can be buried, and she can cover up the sadness with longing.
Half an hour was neither too long nor too short. When Situ Lu's phone rang, Lu Xiaoxiao kept holding him for half an hour. The phone call woke him up from his chaotic thoughts.
Xiao hurriedly walked downstairs, and Situ Lu had already gotten out of the car. He had a straight figure and a long windbreaker. When he saw her, his brown eyes were filled with distress.
"Xiaoxiao, you look bad."
Her glasses were swollen, she must have been crying, and she had lost weight. She was already thin, but now she looked even more weak and pitiful.
Lu Xiaoxiao tried his best to smile, "Actually, it's not as bad as you think. My brother was only slightly injured. I worry easily, so I stayed by his side. Now that he is well, I will officially go to work tomorrow.
."
Situ Lu opened the car door and after Lu Xiaoxiao sat in, Situ Lu naturally pulled up the seat belt and fastened it for her. His body leaned down, and the air was suddenly filled with the fragrance of mint. Lu Xiaoxiao looked at him with her eyes.
His face was dazed for a moment.
This smell is so familiar, so familiar that it makes people feel slightly distressed.
Biting his lip, Lu Xiaoxiao murmured in a low voice: "Do you like...mint-flavored perfume?"
Situ Lu was startled for a moment, then turned his face slightly to look at her: "Do I smell like mint?"
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded: "Yeah."
Situ Lu turned to smile and raised the corners of his lips in a humble and beautiful arc: "Really? I never use perfume, and I don't know that I smell of mint."
Lu Xiaoxiao's body suddenly froze.
No...he didn't smell of mint, but why could she smell it? Could it be that she had unknowingly confused Situ Lu and Ye Shuo? No, it's impossible!
A panicked look appeared on Lu Xiaoxiao's face. This look startled Situ Lu, and even the smile at the corners of his mouth froze.
Did he say something that startled her? The smell, the smell of mint...
"Ah, don't be afraid. When I lived in France, I always had mint grass growing in my house, so I probably got it." Situ Lu hurriedly added.
Lu Xiaoxiao looked at him very embarrassed and said: "Oh, this, this, scares me. My nose has not been very sensitive recently. I thought there was something wrong with my nose."
Situ Lu's heart sank slightly. He could see that she was really frightened, and there was even a trace of sweat on her forehead. But he would not simply believe Lu Xiaoxiao's explanation. He knew that there was something more.
Deep reasons.
After fastening her seat belt, Situ Lu turned to the driver's seat and chatted with her for a few words while driving. After making an appointment to have dinner, Lu Xiaoxiao turned his head and looked out the window, while Situ Lu also fell into deep thought.
It seems that these eyes of Ye Shuo not only brought him this fate, but also something else.
He could feel that she was wary of him. He could guess what was going on from the smell of mint just now. Ye Shuo said to him at the beginning: Send her a bouquet of flowers for me.
Give me mint. She knows the smell.
The smell of medicine in the hospital always overwhelms the smell emanating from people, so he didn't smell the smell of mint from Ye Shuo's body. However, if he guessed correctly, the smell of mint was Ye Shuo's smell, and he didn't smell mint from Ye Shuo's body.
This taste coincidentally resembled Ye Shuo's, but he didn't know it himself, so that's why the scene just happened.
Is it because these eyes are too similar to the person she once liked? She insists that everyone is different, so her own eyes make her even more wary.
This was obviously not a good sign, and Situ Lu raised his eyebrows.
When the restaurant arrived, Situ Lu and Lu Xiaoxiao walked in together. After ordering, Lu Xiaoxiao spoke first to break the silence along the way: "Um, Lu, please show me the drawing first. If you have any questions, please do it first."
Tell me."
Situ Lu looked at her, looked deeply at her, and his brown eyes revealed a familiar message. Lu Xiaoxiao and Ye Shuo had been together for so many years, and his eyes would occasionally reveal such a message.
.
She understood that these eyes revealed that the master had something to say. She didn't know why Lu Xiaoxiao's heart suddenly sank, and an inexplicable nervousness swept over her. She clenched her hands and touched Lu Xiaoxiao's forehead.
It was covered with fine beads of sweat.
Situ Lu did have something to say to her. He wanted to tell her his feelings, but he had always been gentle and gentlemanly. Frank confession was what he was least good at. Besides, it would probably scare her.
With a wry smile, Situ Lu picked up the document from the side and handed it to Lu Xiaoxiao: "Does being with me make you feel nervous and scared? Or are you afraid that I will deliberately make things difficult for you in your design."
Lu Xiaoxiao was startled and found that Situ Lu had not said anything and the folder had been handed to him. He breathed a sigh of relief and felt extremely embarrassed. He bit his lip and said apologetically: "Sorry, I, I'm just a little bit
