Lu Chengxi followed Tong Jiangxin and said, "Where are you going, I'll take you there."
Tong Jiang said happily, "No need."
She didn't want to make trouble. If she happened to meet Liao Jianing by chance, the scene would probably be worse than Mars hitting the earth. She would be happy to die, but it would be a torment.
Lu Chengxi followed Tong Jiangxin downstairs. The housekeeper came over and said, "Master, Miss Tong, should the soup be used in the dining room, or should it be taken upstairs?"
Tong Jiangxin said, "I'm sorry, I have something to do and I have to leave first. I'm sorry to bother you."
Tong Jiangxin had always been very polite to the Lu family. The housekeeper hurriedly lowered his head, but didn't know what to say.
A hint of displeasure flashed in Lu Chengxi's eyes, but he still refrained from saying anything.
While talking, the two of them walked out of the villa, and Lu Chengxi said, "I'll take you to a place where you can get a car."
Tong Jiangxin also knew that it was impossible to get a taxi in the wealthy area of Pingdingshan, so she had no choice but to get in the bus with Lu Chengxi.
After closing the car door and Tong Jiangxin fastening her seat belt, Lu Chengxi said, "After you finish tonight, call me and I'll pick you up."
Tong Jiang said happily, "No need, I'll go back to Mid-levels in the evening."
Lu Chengxi said while driving, "Are you going to keep hiding our matter from Liao Jianing?"
This was the first time that Lu Chengxi had brought it up. Tong Jiangxin was slightly stunned. After thinking for a moment, she lowered her head slightly and whispered, "I don't know how to tell her."
Liao Jianing's personality, if she knew about this... Tong Jiangxin couldn't even imagine it.
Lu Chengxi was silent for a moment, and then said, "She will find out sooner or later anyway. The longer she keeps it a secret, the angrier she will be."
Lu Chengxi's words seemed a bit like waking up someone in a dream. Tong Jiangxin suddenly realized that she was now deceiving Liao Jianing. The longer she continued to lie, the more angry Jia Ning would become. In the end, she would only get worse and become unforgivable.
the point.
When Lu Chengxi saw that Tong Jiangxin didn't say anything, he said directly, "If she really did good for you, she wouldn't see you in pain. You can find a time to explain it to her."
Tong Jiangxin lowered her gaze slightly. She didn't know how long it had passed before she whispered, "Why do you want me to tell her?"
Lu Chengxi replied, "Liao Jianing is your best friend. I know you always value her, and I don't want you to be in trouble between me and her."
Tong Jiangxin's heartbeat skipped a beat and her breathing was stagnant.
After about half a minute, Tong Jiangxin replied, "I understand."
Lu Chengxi didn't say anything and just drove quietly.
When he got to a place where he could get a taxi, Lu Chengxi parked the car, Tong Jiangxin unbuckled his seat belt, and said, "You go back, I will go back to Mid-Levels in the evening, otherwise I will be with Jia Ning, you don't have to pick me up."
I".
Lu Chengxi looked at Tong Jiangxin and said, "Then be careful."
"kindness".
Tong Jiangxin opened the car door and stepped out. It wasn't until she got into a taxi that Lu Chengxi drove back.
Tong Jiangxin took a car to the music restaurant they often went to. After getting off the car, she saw Liao Jianing's car parked at the door. Tong Jiangxin stepped in and did not see Liao Jianing's figure in the usual place on the stage. She was in the somewhat dim hall.
After searching around, someone finally called her, "This way."
Tong Jiang was delighted to hear the news and found that Liao Jianing was sitting on a sofa in the corner, waving to her.
Tong Jiangxin walked over, sat down on the sofa opposite Liao Jianing, and said, "You can't help but ask me to come out for a drink. Are you depressed?"
There was a bottle of red wine in front of Liao Jianing. She waved to the waiter and said, "Bring me a glass of orange juice."
The waiter turned around and went down, Tong Jiang said happily, "Why do you call it orange juice?"
Liao Jianing raised his eyes and said, "You can't drink, just drink."
Tong Jiangxin smiled helplessly and replied, "You asked me to drink. You drink, and you ask me to watch?"
Liao Jianing did not comment, just picked up the red wine bottle and poured a glass of wine into the goblet in front of him.
There is an orange light above their heads, which is not that bright. It shines from top to bottom, making the red wine in the crystal glass look like it has a strange halo.
Liao Jianing picked up the wine glass and drank it. The arc between her jaw and neck was very beautiful, making people think of a story, but her beautiful face was expressionless.
Tong Jiang was pleased to see that Liao Jianing had changed her clothes. She said, "You've already gone home, why are you thinking of coming out again?"
Liao Jianing lowered her gaze slightly, holding the bottom of the goblet with her slender fingers, her red lips lightly parted, and she said, "It's been a long time since I came out to sit with you."
If she hadn't happened to see Liao Jianing and Li Mingyang in the parking lot today, Tong Jiangxin would really have thought that Liao Jianing just wanted to come out and sit for a while, but...
"Miss, your orange juice."
The waiter happened to come over and put down a glass of orange juice in front of Liao Jianing.
Tong Jiangxin said, "Please bring two rows of depth charges."
"OK, just a second".
The waiter nodded, then turned and left.
Liao Jianing raised his eyes and glanced at Tong Jiangxin, then said, "What are you doing?"
Tong Jiangxin took off her little black leather jacket, revealing the Rex Rabbit white turtleneck sweater underneath. Her beautiful lips parted, and she replied loudly, "You have something on your mind, I'll drink with you."
Liao Jianing said, "You have a bad stomach, what should you drink?"
Tong Jiangxin said with an indifferent expression, "Let alone wine, even if you ask me to drink poison, I can drink it without wrinkles."
Liao Jianing smiled helplessly, and then said, "It sounds like the truth."
Tong Jiangxin also smiled, and the warm orange light reflected their beautiful faces beautifully, just like those oil paintings sealed in wooden photo frames.
After a while, the waiter took a tray and brought over two rows of depth charges and placed them in front of the two of them. Several layers of glass test tube-like wine bottles filled with light blue liquid.
Tong Jiangxin put her arms on the table, looked at Liao Jianing in front of her, pursed her lips, and said, "Do you still remember that we have had a habit since high school?"
Liao Jianing looked at the wine arranged in front of her and said with a smile, "Of course you remember, no matter who has something to say, don't hold it back. Each person has a glass of wine and each person asks a question."
Tong Jiangxin also smiled and said, "Yes, we have talked about everything since that time, but I don't know when we started to have secrets from each other again. I kept it in my heart and I was so worried. Then
I’ll come first.”
After saying that, Tong Jiangxin reached out and picked up a test tube, brought it to her lips, slightly opened her red lips, and lifted it up.
Insert the empty test tube back into place, Tong Jiang said happily, "Let me ask you, do you really like Li Mingyang?"
Liao Jianing looked at Tong Jiangxin. After about ten seconds, she said, "Yes."
Tong Jiangxin nodded without comment.
Liao Jianing picked up the test tube and drank the blue liquid. She said, "Let me ask you, you have been so secretive recently. What are you hiding from me?"
Tong Jiangxin had already thought about what she wanted to do when she came in, so she chose this method of 'digming her own grave' in order to speak clearly.
Looking back at Liao Jianing without blinking, Tong Jiangxin replied slowly and clearly, "Yes, I have never dared to tell you. In fact, Lu Chengxi and I have reconciled. We have been together for a while."
Liao Jianing's face was not as tense or dumbfounded as Tong Jiangxin expected. She just nodded calmly, and then said in an incomprehensible tone, "That's what I said..."
Tong Jiangxin picked up the test tube in front of her, drank one, and then said, "You like Mingyang so much, but you don't agree to him, is it because of me?"
This time, Liao Jianing's eyes were obviously a little dodgeful. She leaned against the sofa at the back and moved her entire body away from the light.
Liao Jianing lowered his gaze slightly and remained silent.
Tong Jiangxin also narrowed her eyes slightly. She knew that Liao Jianing always felt a thorn in her heart.
Liao Jianing didn't answer for a while, and Tong Jiangxin didn't press any questions. The two of them were silent at the same time, as if they had made an appointment, but this silence was the tacit understanding they had accumulated over many years of getting along.
After maybe a few minutes, Liao Jianing whispered, "Li Mingyang is a very nice person. I can feel that the person he likes is you. Jiang Xin, we have been together for so many years. You know me, as long as it is you
I can give you whatever you want. If it hadn't been for that time with him... I really wouldn't let things become like this. I don't want to make anyone feel embarrassed, but I really can't be with him."
.
When Liao Jianing said these words, he did not look into Tong Jiangxin's eyes.
Tong Jiangxin said out loud, "Jianing, let's get this out of the way. You should also know that I don't like Li Mingyang. If I liked him, we would have been together long ago."
The corners of Liao Jianing's lips raised slightly, seeming helpless and mocking, she said, "I know, how could I not know... Sometimes I see that kid looking at you distractedly, I'm not jealous, I
I just feel sorry for him. I feel sorry that you obviously don’t have your thoughts with him, but he still likes you.”
Tong Jiangxin's heart hurt inexplicably, as if someone had pulled her.
With her mouth slightly open, Tong Jiangxin frowned, but didn't say anything.
Liao Jianing picked up the test tube in front of her and drank one. She looked away and said aloud, "If the person he likes is not you, I would really rather lie to myself. Even if he wants to be responsible, I will stay with him.
But the person he likes is you... I can't stand it, I really can't stand it."
Tong Jiangxin knew that Liao Jianing didn't mean to blame her, but the relationship between them was so good that they were like biological sisters, so Liao Jianing couldn't bear it.
"Jianing, actually Mingyang has known for a long time that Lu Chengxi and I are getting back together... It's impossible for us to get back together. If you are really sad, then I will never see him again in the future."
