Guitar and dress. Zhuang Nuanchen, Ai Nian and Xia Lu came out of Carrefour, carrying large and small bags. They entered the house at nearly nine o'clock in the evening and continued eating and drinking until eleven o'clock.

Ai Nian and Xia Lu planned to stay tonight in order to celebrate Zhuang Nuanchen's cooperation in the public relations project.

After graduation, working separately, and then working hard in the same company, the three of them no longer had the comfortable daily life they had in college. The lofty ambitions and ambitions they had as students were cruelly cut away and polished by the knife of society.

They were bruised and bruised, but they had to keep moving forward.

The three of them talked about it, talking about everything from their student days to the present, from their university tutors to Jiang Moyuan this morning, all over the world.

"The dresses are all here, you can choose for yourself." After the conversation was almost finished, Zhuang Nuanchen opened the closet that had been closed and said softly.

The wardrobe is placed independently in the corner and is specially used to hold formal dresses. It is separate from the clothes she usually wears. Jiang Moyuan's invitation, Dema spread the news that many people will go. Xia Lu did not go originally, but she and she

Ai Nian forced herself to change her mind. In addition to the staff who made the proposal today, Sister Mei will also participate.

When the wardrobe slowly opened, Ai Nian and Xia Lu opened their mouths in surprise. All kinds of formal dresses were neatly hung there. They were exquisitely tailored and made of luxurious materials. Each piece was in line with the simplicity of Zhuang Nuanchen.

Out of place.

"Oh my god..." Xia Lu first ran to the wardrobe and exclaimed, gently touching the first dress with his fingers to the last one, and was shocked by the glamorous dresses in her heart.

She has always been irresistible to beautiful things, especially clothes!

"They are all new models and limited editions from the past year. Nuanchen, how come you have so many famous brand dresses?" Xia Lu has always been sensitive to fashion. Although he cannot be with brands every day, he always likes to read fashion magazines.

, paying attention to luxury goods information, and often having contact with people in the media, I always keep in mind what kind of trendy new products will be released in a certain period, and they will be collected in limited editions.

Zhuang Nuanchen sat on the floor, closing his eyes and saying nothing.

Ai Nian looked suspicious, glanced at the wardrobe full of dresses, and said thoughtfully, "No wonder, every time Xia Lu and I come to your home, you always hesitate."

"You go ahead and choose. I've already shown it to you, how could I still hide it from you?" After a long time, Zhuang Nuanchen spoke, his eyes fell on the wardrobe, and he sighed softly.

Because of the reception, Ai Nian and Xia Lu had been worrying about what to wear. They took her to discuss whether to buy one first, and then Zhuang Nuanchen took them home.

Taking it home means asking her to tell the truth.

But it's okay, it was very hard for her to hide it, especially from her good friends.

Ai Nian frowned and didn't move. He sat on the cushion on the floor and stared at her, his eyes indescribably complicated.

Xia Lu was not in the mood to choose a dress, so he simply sat down between the two of them and glared at Zhuang Nuanchen, "Tell me the truth, where did these dresses come from?"

The displeased voice turned sharp, irritating her eardrums. Zhuang Nuanchen raised his hand and rubbed his ears, "Why do you look like you're forcing a confession? I don't think I did anything shady, and so did the dress.

I earned it honestly."

She was thinking about the words, and for a while she didn't know how to explain her relationship with Jiang Moyuan to them.

"Earned openly?" Xia Lu raised his voice, "Sister, don't I know how much your monthly salary is? Five thousand five hundred yuan, before tax, every dress in your wardrobe will be worth it.

For 20,000 yuan, I don’t understand what you mean by being fair and aboveboard?”

Ai Nian, who had remained silent, stared at her, "Is it him? Is he the one who gave you these things?"

Zhuang Nuanchen turned to look at Ai Nian, the goose-yellow light fell on her long eyelashes, and her red lips were as weak as qionghua. He didn't say anything, just nodded lightly.

Ai Nian's eyes were startled, and he quickly raised his voice, "Why?"

"I--"

"Wait a minute -" Xia Lu quickly interrupted, looking at the two of them with puzzled expressions, "What him? Which him? What happened that you know but I don't?"

After a short pause, she pulled Zhuang Nuanchen over and said eagerly, "You won't be a mistress or mistress for others, right? Zhuang Nuanchen, let me tell you, if you dare to be someone else's mistress, a third party will get involved.

If so, I will have to sever ties with you!"

Zhuang Nuanchen had a headache due to the quarrel between the two of them. She raised her hand and rubbed her temples. After the two of them stared at her and waited for explanation, she spoke, "Now, can I explain?"

"Say!" Ai Nian and Xia Lu said in unison, with a strong attitude of "If you don't tell them, you will be tortured to extract a confession."

Zhuang Nuanchen stood up, first poured a glass of water for each of them, then sat down again, looked at Ai Nian and said, "You guessed it right, it's him. The reason is that he and I have known each other for a long time."

After saying this, she turned to Xia Lu and said, "The person who gave me the dress was Jiang Moyuan, the same Jiang Moyuan you met with me."

"What?" Ai Nian and Xia Lu were both shocked.

"But don't think blindly. He and I have nothing to do with each other. I am not his mistress, let alone his mistress or mistress." She explained quickly, fearing that they would misunderstand.

Xia Lu had been stunned for a long time. Although she thought Jiang Moyuan looked at Zhuang Nuanchen a little strangely before, she never thought that the two of them knew each other!

Ai Nian is considered rational. She had already had a vague feeling. From the moment she bumped into Jiang Moyuan delivering flowers at the venue, she was the first to regain her composure.

"Tell me, what's going on between you and him?"

Zhuang Nuanchen took a sip of water and slowly told everything.

Throughout the whole process, she spoke very slowly and clearly every word. From the time she and Jiang Moyuan met and became lovers at the banquet, from the time she invited Jiang Moyuan to pretend to be her boyfriend to when he accompanied her to the beach in the middle of the night to wait for the sunrise, it had been more than a year.

She recounted everything that came one by one.

The warm light in the room enveloped her body, and her petite body was wrapped in pure white casual clothes. She crossed her legs and talked quietly, as if she was talking about someone else's matter, something that had nothing to do with her, someone else's matter.

Time passed by, and neither Ai Nian nor Xia Lu interrupted her mid-sentence.

"That's the whole story." She finally finished speaking and looked at the two of them with quiet eyes.

Ai Nian and Xia Lu were silent for a long time before they reacted. After looking at each other and then at Zhuang Nuanchen, no one spoke for a while, and the living room fell into silence.

After a while, Ai Nian spoke first, "Nuan Chen, do you think... Mr. Jiang's intention is that simple? Just pretending to be a lover at a party?"

Zhuang Nuanchen hugged the mug and nodded without hesitation, "That's it."

Ai Nian frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

Xia Lu asked urgently, "Is he married?"

"As far as I know..." Zhuang Nuanchen scratched his hair in confusion, "Probably not. He said personally that he was single." At her aunt's house, she just didn't know whether this statement was true or false.

"A man who admits that he is single in front of you, do you think his purpose is simple?" Ai Nian reminded her vigilantly.

Zhuang Nuanchen looked at Ai Nian and suddenly smiled stupidly, "My dear, you don't think he has a crush on me, do you?"

"Don't laugh, maybe it is? Even if it isn't, he has evil intentions towards you, otherwise why would he give you flowers for no reason?" Ai Nian immediately answered.

"Damn it, he even sent you flowers?" Xia Lu became very gossipy, "When did it happen? Why did Ai Nian know that I didn't know? After sending the flowers? What did you do?"

"Don't let it rain, okay? He gave me flowers just to... uh, apologize." Zhuang Nuanchen faltered, and seeing the two of them staring at her again, he said helplessly, "One night, he...

He kissed me and it happened so abruptly that he sent flowers to apologize."

"What? Is he trying to take advantage of you?" Ai Nian was furious, reaching out and poking her head, "What did I say? Did I guess right? He just has plans for you!"

"No way, he is really a gentleman. He is not as complicated as you think." Zhuang Nuanchen looked helplessly at the two gossiping women, "First of all, it is absolutely impossible for him to fall in love with me. What is he?

People, who am I? Just like Cheng Shaoqian, they and I are people from two different worlds. Whether he is caring or considerate, maybe he just treats me as a friend with good intentions. Secondly, what do I think of you?

Don’t you know yet? Only Gu Mo..."

When she said this, her voice became softer and fainter, but her eyes were filled with a hint of sadness.

"Nuan Chen, you have only been in love with Gu Mo when you were so old. Do you know what men think in their hearts now? Good people? I think Jiang Moyuan is not simple, and his thoughts towards you are not simple. You said he

You are quite a gentleman, well, let me ask you, if one day he really wants you to be with him, what will you do?"

Zhuang Nuanchen glared at her, "Why would I want to do something that is impossible? There is absolutely no way he would like me, don't worry."

"Wait a minute -" Xia Lu, who had been silent, suddenly said, "I agree with Ai Nian's guess. Although I have only met Jiang Moyuan once, I can also feel that he is a calm and steady man. Such a man kissed you for no reason.

, I don’t think it’s as simple as just playing the game. But I don’t agree with Ai Nian’s point of view. Even if you and Jiang Moyuan really have something, what’s the matter? He’s not married and you’re not married, so it’s normal to be together. What’s more important is——

"

She suddenly stood up, first went to the closet and took out a dress, then ran to the corner, reached out and took off the four-string guitar hanging on it.

"Xia Lu, what are you doing?" Zhuang Nuanchen didn't want anyone else to touch the guitar.

Xia Lu turned a deaf ear and placed the in front of Zhuang Nuanchen and said word by word, "Guitar and dress are like spirit and material. Smart women will choose the latter."
