half thorns, half joy

In the blink of an eye, it was noon, and Tang Xuan and Xiao Zihan took the elevator downstairs together.

When she walked to the hall, Tang Xuan saw her colleague from the previous office, who also looked at her. Tang Xuan smiled politely as a greeting, and quickly followed Xiao Zihan.

It wasn't until he got into the car that Xiao Zihan put away the indifferent expression on his face, as if performing a show of changing his face in a second, and asked Tang Xuan with a smile, "What do you want for lunch?"

Tang Xuan looked up at the driver and said nothing.

"The weather is too hot these days, eating too greasy food can easily get angry, let's eat something light." Xiao Zihan said to himself.

Tang Xuan saw that the driver was not looking sideways, as if she couldn't hear what was happening in the back seat, and guessed that the driver would not gossip about Xiao Zihan, so she looked at Xiao Zihan and hummed.

"Then let's go to Jiangnan Waterside to eat, and I'll tell Jinyu."

After graduation, Tang Xuan hadn't seen Cai Jinyu for a long time. Firstly, because she moved, and secondly, because Cai Jinyu also started working in her own company. Everyone was a little tight on time.

After a while, we arrived at the entrance of the hotel.

The driver went to park the car, and Tang Xuan followed Xiao Zihan in.

"Are you still fast?" Xiao Zihan was surprised when he entered the box and found that Cai Jinyu had already arrived.

Cai Jinyu looked sleepy, and looked at the menu in his hand, "I'm in a bad mood, so I came out early."

Xiao Zihan took Tang Xuan's hand and sat down. He exchanged a glance with Tang Xuan and asked, "What's the matter? Aren't you having a good harvest in your love and career? Why are you in a bad mood?"

"Don't mention it." Cai Jinyu hurriedly flipped through the menu, with impatience written all over her face.

Tang Xuan didn't say much, she reached for the teapot and started making tea for everyone.

She couldn't see through Cai Jinyu, let's say that Cai Jinyu is being playful, since he fell in love with his blind date's sister at first sight, he began a long pursuit and unrequited love, during which time he cut off all ambiguous female friends.

But let's say he is dedicated, he is really not a dedicated man.

And ever since Cai Jinyu stalked and chased after that sweetheart, she seemed to have started to slack off and didn't like her that much.

"Arguing with your father?" Xiao Zihan took the tea Tang Xuan handed him, took a sip, and asked in a soft voice.

"No."

"Have you had a fight with the one you love?"

"Don't mention it." Cai Jinyu waved his hand and called the waiter loudly, pointing to the dishes on the menu and ordering randomly, "I want this, this, and this..."

Tang Xuan couldn't help but glance at Xiao Zihan when he heard that he had ordered seven or eight dishes in succession.Xiao Zihan stretched out his hand to press the menu, and said displeasedly, "The three of us can't eat that much."

Cai Jinyu originally wanted to vent his anger, and didn't really want to order so much. Hearing what Xiao Zihan said, he sat down on the back of the chair discouraged, "Okay, then you can order."

"You order." Xiao Zihan pulled out the menu and placed it in front of Tang Xuan.

Tang Xuan had been talking with Xiao Zihan for over a year. Although she didn't have much contact with Cai Jinyu, she was an old acquaintance. She knew what Cai Jinyu usually liked to eat, and she didn't refuse after getting the menu, so she ordered a few dishes neatly.

After the waiter went out with the menu, Xiao Zihan frowned and looked at Cai Jinyu, "We were all fine before, why did we suddenly quarrel?"

Cai Jinyu pursed her lips, and after a while, said quietly, "She is going abroad."

"Ok?"

"I really don't understand, since you have decided to be with me, why can't you stay by my side? Why do you have to make trouble?"

Xiao Zihan was puzzled, "Why do you want to go abroad?"

Cai Jinyu: "Didn't she resign some time ago? She said she wanted to chase her dream. I thought she was just talking for fun. Who knew she was serious? She really went to study design and was admitted to a foreign design school. College."

"So she is going abroad, is she going abroad to study?"

"Well, I have to study for two years, two years, let me talk about two years of foreign love, how can I bear it." Cai Jinyu seemed really wronged, "It's not that I can't bear it, but can she make a decision? She also takes me into consideration when she talks, and leaves as soon as she says, does she really have me in her heart?"

Tang Xuan also sighed after hearing Cai Jinyu's sad tone, "Then you didn't talk to her?"

Cai Jinyu smiled wryly, "Talk about it, she said that she likes freedom, and she hopes I won't force her to do things she doesn't like. Hehe, I forced her instead."

There was really no way to talk about this matter, and Tang Xuan didn't know how to persuade her, so she had to take a look at Xiao Zihan.

Xiao Zihan thought for a while, then comforted Cai Jinyu and said, "Actually, two years is not too long. You can fly over to find her at any time, and she can also fly over to find you at any time. Now that the transportation is so convenient, it doesn't matter if you are in a foreign country."

"Is it okay? It's night on her side during the day, and she's asleep when I'm awake, and she can't talk if she wants to. How could it be okay?" Cai Jinyu said with resentment, "Anyway, I said we would She said, if we really plan to go, we will break up, and she will pursue her freedom."

Tang Xuan didn't expect Cai Jinyu to be so impulsive, "If you say that, she will definitely feel very uncomfortable..."

"Is she uncomfortable? Then I won't be uncomfortable? I worked so hard to catch her. She left as soon as she said, without considering my feelings at all. I'm really fed up. Just leave, I don't Waiting, isn't it hard to find a woman?"

Cai Jinyu said so, but her eyes turned red.

It looked really sad.

Tang Xuan suddenly felt a little embarrassed, feeling that this kind of thing is really a retribution for the world.In the past, it was Cai Jinyu who dumped others, and others cried bitterly, but now it was finally his turn.

Outsiders couldn't help with such a personal matter. Tang Xuan and Xiao Zihan sat and listened silently to Cai Jinyu's venting, and became the quiet audience for a while.

After Cai Jinyu finished venting, the waiter came in with the dishes, and he stopped nagging and settled down to eat.

This meal was very depressing.

When they were about to leave after eating, Tang Xuan called Cai Jinyu to stop, and said very seriously: "I think you should not be impulsive, think about it carefully, and have a good talk with her, it's not easy to meet someone you like in this life, Don't let go so easily."

Cai Jinyu stared fixedly at Tang Xuan, with moisture in her eyes again.

Xiao Zihan also said: "That's right, don't be stubborn. Now that you are stubborn, when the person really leaves, you will cry again."

"...I see." Cai Jinyu pouted, got into the car and drove away.

Tang Xuan and Xiao Zihan stood in place for a few seconds, and sighed together in tacit understanding.

Sitting in the car, on the way back to the company, Xiao Zihan said to Tang Xuan, "I think the last few words you just said were really good."

Tang Xuan recalled, "Huh?"

Xiao Zihan stretched out his hand and clasped Tang Xuan's ten fingers tightly, "I also feel that it is not easy to meet someone you like in your life."

Tang Xuan: "..."

Xiao Zihan looked into Tang Xuan's eyes, pulled Tang Xuan's hand to his lips and kissed it, "The person I like also likes me at the same time, it's even more difficult."

Tang Xuan: "...um..."

Why did her heart hurt so much when she heard Xiao Zihan say this.

Is it because she failed this love?

"I'm so lucky." Xiao Zihan added affectionately, he took Tang Xuan into his arms and hugged Tang Xuan tightly.

Tang Xuan snuggled into Xiao Zihan's arms and closed her eyes sadly.

Suddenly, she really wanted to pray to God that Xiao Zihan would never know the truth.She didn't dare to imagine Xiao Zihan's red eyes, her heart would hurt.

……

Before leaving get off work, Tang Xuan received a message from Ke Ke, asking her to go out to meet her on the weekend, and Tang Xuan immediately agreed.

"Hi, it's time." Tang Xuan just finished replying to the text message when she saw Xiao Zihan walking towards her.

Tang Xuan glanced at the time on the bottom right corner of the computer, and said honestly, "It's not there yet, and I'm going to get off work in one minute."

Xiao Zihan didn't take it seriously, "I'm the leader, and I'll get off work when I say I'm off work. Do you have any objections as a secretary?"

"Don't dare." Tang Xuan got up and began to tidy up the papers and documents on the desktop, and asked Xiao Zihan as she tidied up, "Since it's time to get off work, can I go home?"

"Well, let's go home together."

Tang Xuan stopped her movements and looked up at Xiao Zihan, "You are the leader and I am the secretary. It's not appropriate for the two of us to go home together."

"But……"

"I'm going back."

Xiao Zihan sighed, and complained to Tang Xuan, "Why did I have such a brainless girlfriend like you!"

Tang Xuan laughed, "Regret it? It's too late to regret it now."

Xiao Zihan deliberately said: "Is it too late, then I..."

"How dare you." Tang Xuan glared at Xiao Zihan, "How dare you regret that I won't let you in tonight."

Xiao Zihan immediately hesitated, "Don't dare, no, no, no, how could I regret it."

Tang Xuan finished packing the things on the table with a smile, picked up her bag and walked in front of Xiao Zihan, "I'm shopping for vegetables on the way back. Go to the supermarket and buy some fresh meat and bones. I'll make soup tonight."

Xiao Zihan raised his eyebrows, "Why, you, a secretary, ordered your leader?"

"Ok?"

"Yes, yes, I'm going to buy meat right now, and the chef will cook for us when I buy it back." Xiao Zihan shook the car key in his hand, "A happy life is when you go home and have someone cook for you."

Tang Xuan laughed again after being teased, followed Xiao Zihan out of the office and locked the door.

In the blink of an eye, the weekend came, and Cai Jinyu called and said that she was in a bad mood because of a broken relationship, and asked Xiao Zihan to go over for a drink.

Tang Xuan just wanted to go out to find Ke Ke, so she persuaded Xiao Zihan to accompany Cai Jinyu.

After Xiao Zihan left, Tang Xuan changed her clothes and left the house immediately to meet Ke Ke at the appointed place.

Now that the two are getting close, and they are no longer suspicious of each other, the place to meet has also been fixed, which is a milk tea shop with private rooms.

The milk tea shop is invested and opened by Coco, and the employees inside are all from Coco, so there is no need to worry about safety.It is very common for girls to like drinking milk tea. Even if someone bumps into her, Tang Xuan doesn't have to think of any reason to explain it.

Tang Xuan went downstairs and took a taxi. The taxi arrived at the milk tea shop in less than 10 minutes.After paying the fare, Tang Xuan casually looked around to see if there was no one she knew, and then went into the milk tea shop.

"What would you like to drink?" the younger brother at the front desk asked Tang Xuan enthusiastically.

Tang Xuan asked, "Is your boss here?"

"Here we come." The guy at the front desk nodded, "Shall I take you there?"

"No, I'll go there by myself." Tang Xuan walked towards the inner box with ease, opened the curtain of the innermost box, and walked in.

Coco has already arrived, holding a cup of milk tea and looking towards the door.

"Did I wait a long time, I..." Tang Xuan didn't finish her sentence, she was stunned, looked at the strange girl beside Ke Ke, and asked cautiously, "Who is she?"
