Lin Mei wanted to refuse, but after Xie Jinjia invited her several times, Lin Mei had no choice but to agree. Xie Jinjia celebrated her birthday at home. According to her, she only invited close friends.
Lin Mei was so flattered that she went to the mall early the next morning to buy gifts for Xie Jinjia. Although Xie Jinjia said she didn't need gifts, how could she ignore such a basic courtesy.
Xie Junjia's birthday party started in the evening. After buying the gifts, Lin Mei brought a cup of coffee back to the apartment. She happened to meet the SF Express delivery boy who came to deliver express delivery to her. Lin Mei saw the shipping address.
Then she remembered that this was what she asked Xiao Yue to send to her last week.
Lin Mei opened the express box and saw a huge sugar jar inside. The jar was made of plastic. The printing and packaging on the outside had faded over time, but other than that there was no other damage. It could be seen that it had been damaged over the years.
Very well protected.
Lin Mei opened the jar and took out the contents one by one. There were meter rulers, pens, small notes, and some keychains and small pendants. These scattered small items were all given to her by Xing Yan back then.
After seeing these things, Lin Mei realized that she could clearly remember the scene when he gave her every gift and what he said at that time.
Lin Mei took out a keychain. On the keychain was a piece of jade about ten centimeters, with eight words engraved on it: [his son, the country's Yanxi].
When she accepted the keychain, she didn't pay much attention to the sentence above. Now that she knew his name, she understood the meaning of this jade to him. When she was young, she didn't understand what was valuable or not.
After looking at it today, she could confirm that this piece of jade was worth a lot of money.
When a man gives a jade with his name engraved on it to a woman who is about to leave, it represents a promise. She was too young to understand at the time, and she missed his heart like this.
Lin Mei put the keychain on the coffee table and tied it with the car keys. She then rummaged through other items in the jar and found several faded bookmarks, each with the same sentence written on them:
[The flowers are blooming, and the white dew is still blooming; the so-called beauty is in the meadow of the water.]
Looking at this sentence, Lin Mei couldn't help but think of the scene when she first met Xing Yan and introduced herself to him. He thought her name was the "Mei" from "Charming", so she corrected him seriously, "Yes.
The Mae of three o'clock water, you have studied "Jian Jia", the so-called beauty is on the Mae of water."
Lin Mei smiled lightly. The memories of his youth were extremely beautiful no matter when he thought of them, without any impurities. No wonder many people miss the past.
Lin Mei packed up the things in the jar one after another, and before she knew it, it was time to set off. To show courtesy, Lin Mei changed into a set of formal clothes and put on makeup. She brought some for Xie Qujia
I bought the gift and drove to the villa of Xie Qujia's family.
While waiting for the red light on the road, Lin Mei's eyes fell on the keychain of the car key. She smiled again. When she saw the jade, she seemed to see the warm and genial young man in her memory.
In Zhuhua Villa, Xing Zheng was sitting on the sofa, with the collar of his shirt open and a cigarette in his hand. His face was hidden in the smoke, making it difficult to see the emotions in his eyes. At this time, Shen Su across from him
Talking to Gu Song about the situation he had learned, "If Zhao Jianghe takes over the land in the north of the city based on Uncle Xing's relationship, then Zhao Jianghe's power will at least double, and he will be defeated by that time."
It’s even harder for him.”
Xing Zheng brought the cigarette to his mouth, took a deep breath, puffed out the smoke, and looked indifferently. Gu Song said to him: "You can't look at me like this this time. You must stop Uncle Xing. Zhao Jianghe has been here all these years." The Xing family has gained more benefits than you, our own son."
Xing Zheng laughed at himself. He didn't care about the Xing family's property. As brothers, Gu Song and Shen Su also knew that this was not what he wanted, so they became even more angry for him. Gu Song asked: "Have you ever thought about trying to talk to him?" Uncle Xing, tell me the truth about the car accident that year?"
It's useless to talk to Xie Fanjia, but Xing Sha is not as partial as Xie Fanjia. Over the years, he has still cared about Xing Zheng to a certain extent, but because of taking care of his wife's feelings, he can't show it directly. If Xing Zheng and him Having said this, it is impossible for him to help Zhao Jianghe like this again.
“Is it useful?”
Gu Song fell silent. Although he was a brother, he really couldn't experience the pain and despair that Xing Zheng had experienced over the years. He stood as a bystander and gave him advice. It was somewhat uncomfortable to stand and talk. He glanced at Shen Zheng. Su, Shen Su said: "Today is Auntie Xie's birthday, Zhao Jianghe will definitely come there."
Xing Zheng put out his cigarette butt and buttoned his shirt with his knuckled fingers. He stood up and walked towards the shoe cabinet. Shen Su and Gu Song followed him and left Zhuhua Villa together.
Lin Mei brought gifts to the villa of Xie Qujia's family. As soon as she got off the car, someone came to entertain her. Lin Mei was taken to the living room. At that time, there were already several people of similar age to Xie Qujia sitting in the living room. Madam, at first glance it is clear that she does not have an ordinary background.
Although Lin Mei didn't know them, he still bowed slightly and said hello to everyone after entering.
Xie Jinjia came up and hugged Lin Mei. Lin Mei gave her a gift. Xie Jinjia scolded and said, "I told you not to be so polite and disobedient."
"Your birthday only comes once a year, so there's no reason to come empty-handed." Lin Mei and Xie Qujia smiled, "You can accept it, it's a little bit of my kindness."
The more Xie Jinjia looked at Lin Mei, the more she liked her. She invited Lin Mei to sit down, and specifically asked her to sit next to her. After sitting down, Xie Jinjia chatted with Lin Mei about her current situation, and inevitably asked About her affair with Zhao Jianghe.
Lin Mei avoided the important point and said a few words lightly. There were so many people, so she couldn't tell Xie Jinjia directly that she didn't mean that. After chatting for a while, Xie Jinjia said with a smile: "How could I forget that Jiang He is also here today?" , you should be allowed to come together."
Lin Meili is smiling but not smiling, Zhao Jianghe is coming too?
If she knew he would come, she would stay away. Xie Qujia wanted them to be together so much. When Zhao Jianghe came over, there would be another matchmaking...
Thinking about it, Lin Mei felt her head was heavy. She raised her hand and gently rubbed her temples. At the same time, someone else came over.
Lin Mei followed everyone and looked over, but unexpectedly he saw Ruan Yufei and Yangshuo mother and son. Ruan Yufei, who has always been simple, rarely wore an exquisite suit today. Not only did she wear high heels, but she also put on makeup. They are beautiful when applied with powder, and even more gentle and charming after being carefully crafted.
Lin Mei regretted coming over tonight even more. She had forgotten the relationship between Xie Fanjia and Yangshuo...
The mother and son are here, could it be that Xing Zheng is coming too?
Xie Jinjia saw Ruan Yufei and Yang Shuo, and stood up again and walked up. She held Yang Shuo and went to see Ruan Yufei again. Ruan Yufei kept looking at Lin Mei, so Xie Jinjia introduced her: " That’s Lin Mei, my friend.”
