Chapter 9: An Unexpected Encounter
I almost threw away the briefcase in my hand and ran to the room where Angel had lived. There was also a faint dust in the room. The clothes that I put in the storage cabinet a long time ago were all hung in the cabinet again. At this time, I was completely sure: she had been here! And not long ago.
I stared at the clothes hanging one by one. Because of the outfits of these clothes, Angel gave me many unexpected beauty. To be precise, it was she that set off the beauty of the clothes.
I gently stroked the clothes one by one. The scenes of Angel smiling, laughing, holding my arms and playing with each other seemed to suddenly fall off dust and appear before me again, and I felt a little sad!
I didn't feel sleepy at all, so I found a rag and wanted to wipe each room again.
From the kitchen to the living room, to Angel's room, and the bathroom, I finally dragged my tired body to the room I used to live in.
The room was clean and there was a thin blanket on the bed. I can't remember whether it had it a long time ago or...
I threw away the rag and lay on my bed, breathing heavily. I, who had not done housework for a long time, just wiped the dust and was already a little overdrawn.
I used to touching my pocket. I wanted to smoke a cigarette, but found that I, who had not been used to smoking for a long time, could no longer carry cigarettes with me.
Everything calmed down, and the sound of rain came from outside the window. This seemed to be destined to be a lonely and lonely cold rainy night because of nostalgia!
.........
I went to the bathroom to wash up briefly, took a pack of cigarettes from the briefcase in the living room, and then returned to my room.
Listening to the drizzle of rain, I took out my cell phone and called Chen Qingyi. This was a habit I had been on a long time. As long as I was on a business trip outside, I would call Chen Qingyi to report my safety no matter how late.
The phone was quickly connected, and Chen Qingyi's voice came from inside: "Is it still going well?"
"Well, the intention to cooperate has been reached in advance, and the possibility of comprehensive cooperation in the end is still very high."
Chen Qingyi smiled and said, "I knew that as long as you take action, there will be no customers who can't handle it!"
"You still trust me so blindly for so many years!" I sighed.
"This is a fact. You have been doing great things over the past few years, and we can see it all."
I smiled and then changed the subject: "Where is Pipi, let him talk to me."
"Wait, he and Huayi are watching cartoons in the living room. Today, Huayi and Lin Xi were visiting our house."
"Um."
A moment later, Pipi answered my phone call with a lively tone: "helo, dad."
"Are you very happy if you are a little guy?"
"I'm watching SpongeBob, of course I'm happy... Dad, when are you back? Our school is going to hold a parent-teacher meeting."
"Don't worry tomorrow, dad will definitely take time to go!" I said with a smile.
"You need to be with your mom."
"No problem, let's go together." I promised Pipi.
"Then I'm so happy... But, Dad, I'm going to watch the cartoon."
"Go, remember to be good, don't make your mother angry."
"As for orders, sir!"
After the call with Pipi, my world became silent again. I lay back on the bed but couldn't sleep because there were too many memories of Anqi and I. These memories sometimes make me happy, sometimes make me feel sad, and my mood becomes complicated.
......
The rain outside the window was getting heavier. Listening to the sound of raindrops, I gradually felt a little tired, but suddenly I heard the sound of opening and closing the door. I couldn't control myself and suddenly sat up from the bed, then held my breath... There were speculations, expectations, and panic...
I didn't let myself make any noise, and listened quietly to the movement outside the door.
I heard the sound of the key placing on the coffee table, and vaguely heard the sound of water flowing in the bathroom... I knew she was taking a shower in the bathroom.
I breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, I had plenty of time to leave here without finding me at all. I even had some nervousness about the scenes when we met. I had too many words to say, but I couldn't speak.
I finally didn't choose to leave. I always wanted to find an opportunity to communicate with her once, but she was unwilling to communicate with me in any form, so this was a rare opportunity for me.
I sat on the sofa in the living room, lit a cigarette, and listened quietly to the sound of running water in the bathroom, but my mind was thinking about the opening remarks after meeting later.
.........
Half an hour passed, and the sound of water flowing in the bathroom finally stopped, and my heart was nervous and nervous. We were finally going to meet in this room full of memories...
The bathroom door was opened, she wrapped her bath towel and wiped her wet hair with a towel... Suddenly, I found me sitting on the sofa, first, because I suddenly saw my face showing fear, then I was cold and disgusted... We looked at each other.
I put out the cigarette butts and finally said to her: "I have a hair dryer in my room."
She didn't respond to me and turned toward her room. When she walked to me, I subconsciously grabbed her arm. Her hand tucked in the bathrobe was loosened because of inertia, and the bathrobe slid down.
This is the first time I have seen her body, without any flaws at all, it is simply the masterpiece of the Creator...
I was nervous: "I'm sorry...I didn't mean it!"
She looked at me coldly: "Have you seen enough?"
Only then did I realize that it was inappropriate to place my eyes on her body casually! I quickly turned around and stopped looking at her.
"You are not only shameless, but also vulgar!" An Qi scolded me coldly.
I was speechless... She wrapped her bathrobe and walked towards her room again, closed the door, without any movement.
I didn't know what to do for a moment, and even wanted to leave and give her a quiet night.
Just as I was determined to leave, Anqi walked out of her room in neat clothes. She changed her clothes and was about to leave. She must have hated this unexpected encounter.
"Let's talk, can you give me ten minutes?" I stood in front of her.
"Get out of the way." Her tone made me feel cold.
I had an illusion that I thought she would take off her high heels like when she first met and hit me, but she just looked at me hatred. At this moment, I understood: after the baptism of time, she changed. She used to vent her disgust or hatred for me directly with high heels, but now she will no longer vent this way because hatred becomes extremely complicated!
I just stood in front of her, refusing to give in, but I didn't know how to say it.
Angel sat on the sofa, and she didn't look at me anymore. She took out a pack of cigarettes from her black leather bag and pulled out one from it to ignite it.
The cigarette floated lightly between her slender fingers. Her smoking posture was much more beautiful than that of ordinary women, but I felt sorry for her. She used to have no habit of smoking, and she was sure that it was her who left a cigarette butt on the rooftop because it was a lady's cigarette of the same brand.
