Chapter 92 I will give you a piece of advice. Lu Feining contacted him later that night, but the two of them never even met face to face, because Lu Feining was already at the airport at that time, saying that there was an urgent matter to be dealt with at the time. Flying to City B, Fang Xin can only temporarily put aside any doubts she has.

That night, Fang Xin returned to live in the apartment she rented with Lu Feining. During her absence, the bedroom was still the same as when she left.

Because I was the only one left, I took care of the dinner casually. After washing up, Fang Xin went to rest around ten o'clock.

The bedside lamp was her only company in this silent night. Lying on her little bed, Fang Xin stared at the ceiling with a pair of bright eyes in a trance, not feeling sleepy for a long time.

Downstairs in the old community, there is the sound of cars passing by from time to time. Even in the middle of the night, the surroundings are noisy. Fang Xin understands that the sounds are made by late returnees eating supper at the big stalls outside.

It was noisy, it was a familiar voice in memory, but at this moment, Fang Xin was a little hard to adapt, and felt vaguely harsh. At this moment, his mind suddenly recalled the night in Jingyuan, where it was so quiet, so quiet that only his body was left. The breathing and heartbeat of the man next to him.

Accompanied by these breaths and heartbeats, and wrapped in his warm body temperature, Fang Xin fell asleep peacefully during those many long nights.

But at this moment, she was still as cold as ice in the quilt, because of the cold, she had to curl up her body, and the noisy sounds outside disturbed her mind even more, she was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep for a long time .

Fang Xin suddenly felt terrified, as if something, including Jiang Lizhe, and everything related to him, quietly entered her life when she let down her vigilance, and was rooted deep in her soul. It was too late for her to repent.

At this moment, the drowsiness disappeared completely. Fang Xin turned over and sat down. The mobile phone was placed on the bedside table beside her. She couldn't remember how many times she turned on the screen of the mobile phone today. One miss.

There was no message, no call, nothing, and the hope that she had carefully accumulated in her heart was gradually shattered bit by bit with these failures.

"Fang Xin, pay attention to the time of the fire in your pot, don't burn it." Fang's mother Yu Xiuxin's voice sounded outside the kitchen, reminding Fang Xin inside.

Today is the winter solstice. People in S City have always attached great importance to this festival. Fang Xin's company is also humane. It only took half a day for this day to let all the employees go home early for the holiday.

Since it was not a weekend, nor was it a national statutory holiday, the school was not on holiday, and Fang Hui was in her third year of high school, so she was even more nervous about her homework and studies, so naturally she couldn't go home.

This festival is a rare holiday for Fang Xin, so she must go home to accompany her mother. After getting off work at noon, she went to the supermarket to buy glutinous rice flour, peanuts, sugar and other ingredients to make glutinous rice dumplings for the winter solstice.

I was rubbing the glutinous rice flour in the basin vigorously in my hand, and there was water boiling in the pot beside it. There was a small alarm clock on the kitchen cabinet. Fang Xin heard her mother's call, raised her head and glanced at the time, it was already evening It was half past seven, the news had just finished broadcasting at this time, and then there was the weather forecast.

Fang Xin didn't know what he was in a hurry for. Holding up a pair of hands covered in white powder, he ran out of the kitchen and ran towards the living room.

Seeing that Yu Xiuxin was about to switch channels, Fang Xin blurted out, "Mom, wait a minute, I'll check the weather forecast."

"The domestic ones have already been reported, and now this one is for foreign ones. What do you want to pay attention to?" Yu Xiuxin paused as she switched channels, and looked at her eldest daughter with a puzzled face.

Today is the fifth day since Jiang Lizhe left. In these five days, the two of them have never sent a message to each other. They have made a phone call, and they have completely lost contact. It seems that they have returned to the original point of not knowing each other. During this period of time Everything made Fang Xin think that it was just a dream.

Now, after waking up from the dream, she was still foolishly immersed in it, unable to get away.

Fang Xin didn't have time to answer, her eyes just stared at the rolling screen, as if afraid of missing something, the square font on it showed the names of many American cities, she looked at them one by one, memorized them one by one, the temperature , whether it is snowing, windy, or light rain.

It's so complicated, but it was only later that she suddenly realized that the United States is so big and there are so many cities, she didn't even know which city Jiang Lizhe was in, and even she knew so little about him.

Except for his name, except for his apartment in China, and his company, she knew nothing about it.

Isn't Jiang Lizhe a stranger to himself?

Fang Xin suddenly lost his strength. With his floured hands hanging down, he managed to cheer up and responded to his mother, "Oh, I misread the time. I thought it was from China. Mom, go ahead and read."

"This kid." Yu Xiuxin babbled a few words, then raised the remote control to switch to the senior channel.

The glutinous rice balls take some time to form. Fang Xin worked hard to knead the glutinous rice balls, ground the peanuts and sugar, put them on a plate one by one, put them in a boiling pot to cook, and then rinsed them out. With both hands, he sat on the small chair next to the pot and waited.

***

At the same time, it is a busy day in the United States.

Jiang Lizhe has been so busy these days with Essen's cooperation case that he doesn't even have time to return to his mother's side. In order to facilitate meetings and work, he lives in a nearby hotel apartment.

The results of the negotiations last night were satisfactory for the time being, and Jiang Lizhe had a break today.

The apartment hotel where he lives is on a low floor, and the balcony of the room is a large garden outside, with many plants and flowers planted.

Jiang Lizhe didn't go to the company today. He was working in the hotel room at the moment. He was sitting on an office chair with French windows behind him. The windows were opened, and the smell of fresh plants in the garden drifted into the room with the wind, filling his breath.

Today's weather is also very sunny, the sun shines on his body, it is warm, and he is not dressed much indoors, a gray towel is put on a white shirt, wise and elegant.

The slender and beautiful fingers had just turned over a page of the document when the doorbell outside the room rang.

Jiang Lizhe raised his hand to take off the glasses on the bridge of his nose. The door was unlocked. He glanced at the time on the expensive clock on his wrist, and then replied, "Come in."

I thought it was the secretary here bringing coffee, but unexpectedly, it was Lan Lan who came in.

Jiang Lizhe's eyes darkened calmly, but he still sat on the upper seat as firmly as Mount Tai, and the arc of his thin lips was sacred and inviolable.

The winter here in San Francisco is not too cold, and the temperature is suitable today, Lan Lan finally found out about Jiang Lizhe's whereabouts, so when she came here today, she naturally put a lot of thought into choosing her attire.

Slim long skirt, simple decorations, generous and elegant, she is still the ladylike Lan Lan.

The man with a stern face had a majestic aura, and Lan Lan couldn't help feeling a little scared, but he had already arrived, so there was no reason to leave halfway.

"Li Zhe, I met Sun Ming when I came up, so I brought you coffee for him, so I didn't disturb you." Lan Lan suppressed the turmoil in her heart, with a decent smile on her lips, and held the coffee in her hands. The fragrant coffee is gently placed on the side of the desk, and the voice is gentle and pleasant.

With a slight movement of Jiang Lizhe's hand clinging to the Parker pen, he swiftly signed his name at the bottom of the document. He seemed to really only treat Lan Lan as a secretary. He didn't raise his head at the moment, and asked without emotion, " When did you come here? Work?"

She put all her effort into dressing up just for him, but when she really stood in front of this man, he didn't even give him a glance.

The smile on Lan Lan's face began to stiffen, but she secretly told herself not to worry about it at this time, of course there will be thorns on the road to success, as long as the result is satisfactory.

She took a deep breath and summoned up her courage, "Lizhe, I came here specially to see you."

"Oh? Look at me? What's the matter with me?" Jiang Lizhe seemed to hear a very interesting answer, raised his eyebrows, and raised his head from the pile of documents this time.

Facing the sharp eyes of the man for a moment, Lan Lan didn't know why, her heart skipped a beat, and her breathing became short of breath.

Lan Lan tightened her palms tightly, telling herself not to panic, took a breath, but her voice trembled uncontrollably, "Li Zhe, my heart for you has never changed, I like you, You are clear, I, I don't know what I did wrong, so that you don't even want to see me during this time, Lizhe, you tell me, I can change it. "

She finally met Jiang Lizhe, and she knew that she had to buy time to express her inner feelings clearly. She was afraid, afraid that this man would drive her away.

Lan Lan spoke sincerely, her delicately made-up face was full of affection, and her eyes were full of pleading and sincerity.

Jiang Lizhe narrowed his eagle eyes, listening to such a sincere confession from a woman, the expression on Jun's face still didn't show a trace of looseness, even the warm sun couldn't melt the cold that was rising around him at this moment.

He got up from the office chair, walked to the wine cabinet, took the glass, and poured wine for himself.

He leaned back and took a sip of the wine. The alcohol quickly slipped from his mouth into his throat, burning all the way to his stomach, with a slightly astringent and pungent taste.

It's like tears, more like the tears of that woman, the tears of the woman buried in his arms crying and saying: I didn't steal other men.

It's been five days, and that stubborn woman didn't even give him a message when she made a phone call. How should he evaluate her?Heartless?

Or is this her act of proof?It proved that everything was just his own wishful thinking, and she was forced, and she was even more innocent, so when he was away for five days, she could remain indifferent, or for her, it was even more a relief.

relief? !Holding the wine glass violently, Jiang Lizhe poured the wine in the glass to the bottom, but found that the anxiety rising in his heart because of thinking of these two words was not relieved at all, but became more and more intense.

Lan Lan couldn't get Jiang Lizhe's response for a long time, the man's cold side face, the lines showed perfection, she stared deeply, her eyes gradually filled with infatuation.

But the expression on this man's face was unfathomable. Those eyes were as deep as the sea, which made people couldn't help but be attracted to him, but he didn't dare to approach him easily.

And at this moment, it became so distant and elusive that she felt that she couldn't grasp it at all, as if his person was here, but his heart and soul had long since disappeared.

Her heart tightened suddenly, she almost didn't have time to think, she quickly took steps, came behind him, mustered up her courage again, stretched out her arms and hugged him from behind, buried her face in his broad back, greedy Sniffing his scent, "Lizhe, I beg you, please please, don't leave me alone, I can't live without you."

Because of Lan Lan's sudden approach, the scent of the perfume she sprayed on her body came naturally, very strong, which made Jiang Lizhe suddenly feel disgusted.

When did I become so sensitive to the smell of perfume?

His thoughts turned, Fang Xin had never had such a strong smell on his body, the smell was all faint, every time he hugged her, he seemed to be attracted by this light smell.

What kind of smell is that?

"Lizhe, don't ignore me, I beg you." Lan Lan's voice suddenly interrupted Jiang Lizhe's thinking.

"Let go!" Jiang Lizhe's tall body didn't move at all, he only uttered two words quietly, his deep voice showed that his patience had reached the edge at the moment.

Lan Lan felt unwilling, and Linglong's body clung to him boldly, trying to soften his coldness with feminine softness, "Li Zhe, don't chase me away, okay?"

"I said let go!" His voice didn't rise, but every word was full of frightening meaning.

Lan Lan's heart trembled, she instinctively let go of the hand around his waist, and took another two steps back, her eyes were full of tears.

Jiang Lizhe put down the empty wine glass, and when he turned around, he stretched out his big hand and clasped Lan Lan's chin heavily. Unexpectedly, Lan Lan couldn't hide the tears in his eyes.

"Do you like me?" Jiang Lizhe didn't move, his eyes were cold, his thumb rubbed her soft chin with cruel force, the thick powder on the woman's face touched his hand unconsciously, the tactile sensation It disgusted him again, but at the same time answered the question he had just thought of.

He seemed to remember the faint smell on Fang Xin's body, it was the smell of baby oil.

Therefore, whenever he touched her skin, it was always soft and clean.

Because of winter, her skin is prone to dryness. She seems to apply a little every morning before going out. She said that the cold wind blows outside, and her face is easy to crack.

And in the evening, she washed her face, and because she didn't have to go out, she didn't apply anything and went to rest. He remembered teasing her once, that women age quickly if they don't take care of themselves. She just shrugged at him, Then he said indifferently: old is old.

In this frivolous city, everyone seems to pay great attention to appearance, and women are even more concerned about skin care. They are willing to hide their true selves and leave those false glamor to show others.

As everyone knows, the appearance is the most vulnerable to the baptism of wind and frost, but a sincere heart is the most worthy of cherishing and caring.

"Li Zhe, I like you, you trust me." The strength in the chin kept tightening. Lan Lan was in pain but did not dare to shout out, expressing her heart again.

As soon as Jiang Lizhe retracted his eyebrows, and released her strength, he shook her off, and his cold voice carried a warning tone, "Don't just talk about your liking, Lan Lan, for the sake of your elders, I hope you Do it yourself, some things cannot be forced, and some people are not something you can control, recognize your own identity, and I will give you a piece of advice: keep yourself safe."
