Chapter 224: Another Shadow Under the Street Lamp

The nights in Beijing in late spring are not cold and a little stuffy.

I squatted under the street lights in front of the community, smoking cigarettes one by one, and occasionally passing by office workers who returned home, or old men and aunts who went out for a walk and started returning home.

They were in a hurry, and no one would think of looking at me.

This is Beijing. No one will pay attention to an irrelevant stranger. If this is in the small town in my hometown, and if I smoke on the roadside like this, there will definitely be neighbors asking about it.

Fortunately, this is in Beijing. No one knows me, no one knows me, and no one knows what kind of quiet I am experiencing. I am only myself, quietly smoking and then thinking about what to do next.

I had the impulse to call Tong Xue, put aside my face and tear off the disguise, and force her to give me the truth, but just thinking about it, are I still crazy? I haven't been so desperate to that extent.

Meng Yang is right. I am not the kind of man who can hurt his old love for the current new love.

But at this moment, the only crux of the matter is the relationship between Qi Yu and Tong Xue. I am not a noble person, so I will inevitably think about it on the dirty side. Qi Yu is rich and Tong Xue is beautiful.

"How could I doubt her?"

I sucked all the cigarettes between my fingers heavily and cursed myself inwardly.

After four years in college and three years in Beijing, Tong Xue was a woman who spent seven years of youth on me. If she were the kind of woman who could betray love for money, she would not have chosen to be with me at the beginning.

So, when she said she had cheated and chose to leave with a man who was willing to buy a house for her on the Third Ring Road, I was questioning after a brief period of anger.

The only time to figure out the reason is the day when I went to her house to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the New Year, but she was in a bad mood that day and repeatedly avoided my problems. So I delayed until now, and gradually, I also gave up my mind to find out.

Because I know that I have fallen in love with another woman, and I should let go of everything about her.

I let out a long sigh, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of my mouth. I never thought that what I had put down would make me suffer again.

I stood up from the ground with trembling squats, and after squatting for so long, my legs were a little numb, and I jumped gently twice. After feeling that it didn't affect my walking, I was about to go back to the rental house, force myself to have a sleep, and then go to Zhang Yao's date tomorrow.

However, when I turned around, I stopped where I was, and a back caught my attention.

How could she come?

Did she come to accompany me?

But I haven't figured out how to face her! I don't want my woman to see her beloved man looking like she has lost her soul!

But Zhang Yao was standing there, and it was my way home after all.

She probably wanted to call me or was about to go upstairs to my house

She stood in front, and I stood about ten meters behind her. The street lights pulled her shadow very long. The light hit her back, and the halo was coated with it, making her look like an angel.

She was an angel who saved me from the lonely angel.

Troubled, I dare not move.

But Zhang Yao moved.

I saw her pick up the phone, and then my phone rang.

"Hello"

After answering, I knew I could not escape, so I could only speak, "Let me go back, I'm behind you."

Zhang Yao turned around, hung up the phone, and walked towards me step by step. She didn't change her clothes, and she was still the same when we went to Beidaihe last night. It can be seen that she had come to me before she got home.

"Are you okay?" She stopped two steps away from me, then smiled and said, "Luckily I still remember the way to your house."

"Why are you here?"

I turned my head to the side, not wanting her to see the panic on my face.

"I think you need someone to accompany you, so I come here."

"Thanks."

After hesitating for a moment, I gritted my teeth, turned my head, looked straight into her bright eyes, and said, "I'm really sorry to let you see me like this."

"What are you talking about?"

Zhang Yao took another step forward, "Although I have never been in a relationship, I know that when a man needs to drink and drink, he must have encountered something difficult, which made him breathless. Chen Mo, I am your girlfriend, and it can even be said that in the whole city of Beijing, I am the closest person to you. If I don't come to accompany you, who else can accompany you?"

Every word of her words touched my already soft heart.

I raised my head slightly and made sure that my tear glands would not collapse, then I spoke to her and said, "Miss, you are so understanding, how can I not love you?"

"Why, do you still want to love me?"

Zhang Yao pretended to be naughty and said, "Chen Mo, I tell you, if you dare not love me before I dump you, I will destroy your third leg."

"Hey, do you want to be so cruel?"

As soon as she said this, my mood improved a lot, at least, it was no longer gloomy.

“It’s necessary.”

"Okay," I sighed, then coughed lightly, raised my right hand, and learned the Qiu Shui Oath gesture that was very popular some time ago, "I, Chen Mo, promise to Ms. Zhang Yao in front of me, that I love you and only love you."

"Is it okay?" I asked with a smile.

"Perhaps forcefully."

Zhang Yao nodded reluctantly, stretched out her hand and said, "Give it."

"What?"

"cigarette."

"oh"

I reluctantly handed her the cigarette in my hand, and muttered, "Didn't I say I'm allowed to smoke today?"

"I'm here, so I won't allow it."

"Do you want to be so fickle?"

"Don't you know that women are fickle animals?"

She rolled her eyes, then opened the cigarette box, counted one by one, and after a while, she frowned, "Chen Mo, are you going to commit suicide? How long has it been since you actually smoked twelve cigarettes!"

"Uh?"

"You can see it yourself." She threw the cigarette box over angrily.

"I was wrong."

"What happened that made you look like?"

"this"

Finally, I still have to face this problem. I scratched my head and was very confused.

If I told her, I had to say what I was going to do. She would never allow me to do those things.

I didn't say anything, took a step forward, then held her in my arms, lowered my head, looked at her lips, and kissed her. This was my only way to escape.

Gradually, our breathing began to be rapid. At night, in front of the corridor, two men and women in love

"Cough cough" We didn't let go of each other until a passing person coughed. When we looked at each other, our faces turned red and we all laughed.
