Rolls Royce

Chapter 20 Relief

In the end, Tan Xianghui didn't wait until the weekend. On the first day after the competition, he booked the ticket.Before leaving, he wanted to make a call with Fu Lili and picked up his cell phone, but he didn't dial the number after all.

He seemed to be always causing trouble for Fu Lili.

Recently, she should be very busy - in addition to going to work every day, she also has to deal with her parents-in-law, the wedding has also been put on the agenda, many trivial things that men can't do, must all fall on her shoulders.And she was able to find time to meet He Yinrong once for him... She always cared about his affairs so much, and even shed tears for him.This time, he didn't want Fu Lili to worry anymore.

After the school approved the leave note, Tan Xianghui went to the high-speed rail station alone with some light luggage.The journey back was not too far, but he was inexplicably anxious. He kept looking down at the watch on his wrist along the way, like a criminal waiting to be sentenced.It has been six or seven years since he walked out of that city, and he is no longer the teenage boy he was back then, and his mood is much calmer than before, but some things still make him feel uneasy.His heart seemed to be infused with the blood of his youth again, and all the past events gradually came alive with the changes of the scenery outside the window.He actually felt timid about the upcoming meeting.

When we arrived at the station, it was a quarter past eight in the evening.It was already dark, and the early spring wind was blowing on my face, which was very refreshing.Tan Xianghui had already found the bar that Fu Lili mentioned on the map, and he could go there directly, but he didn't make up his mind in the end, but found a hotel first and stayed in it.After taking a shower, his hot head finally cooled down. He repeatedly hinted to himself to calm down, but he still couldn't help imagining He Yinrong's current appearance.He had obviously convinced himself of all his worries before, and came here without hesitation, but at the moment of the scene, he hesitated again.He's really worthless.

Fu Lili's phone call came at this time, and he picked it up, thinking it would be better to keep Fu Lili a secret.But she seemed to have the ability to predict the future, and the first question she asked was "Have you got off the car?"

"I...um." He could only admit frankly, with a layer of sweat on his forehead.

"Haha, I knew it, you can't wait." Fu Lili smiled smugly, "When are you going to find him?"

"Let's see again." He couldn't tell.

"Hey, are you scared?" She guessed again, and Tan Xianghui almost thought that there was a pinhole camera secretly installed by Fu Lili in this room.To say that women are always fickle, in order to clear the relationship between He Yinrong and him, Fu Lili even lied that she was his girlfriend.But at this moment, she has become a eunuch anxious for the emperor again, wishing she could match the two of them together in the next second.Tan Xianghui couldn't help sighing, the voice didn't escape Fu Lili's ears, she immediately asked, "What's the matter with you?"

"It's okay, I was just thinking, why are you so active."

"I'm doing a great thing! Can you not be in a hurry!" There was a smile in her voice, and she didn't know if she was joking or telling the truth.Tan Xianghui raised his hand and touched the reddened pinna before he said vaguely, "Didn't you dislike these things before?"

Hearing this sentence, Fu Lili became even more emotional, and her voice became extraordinarily loud: "I never did! Back then, I just didn't want you to be disturbed by people you didn't like, but it's different now."

"What's the difference now..." He sighed again, his eyebrows trembling unconsciously.

"I didn't know you liked him before, but now I do." Fu Lili's voice suddenly became serious.

He was stunned by the words... his Adam's apple moved, but he still didn't speak.

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore, you are tired today, go to sleep." After finishing speaking, Fu Lili hung up the phone swiftly.She knew that Tan Xianghui was in a very messed up mood right now, and if she said anything more, she was afraid that Tan Xianghui would be even more confused. Isn't he just such an elm-headed man... I really can't wait for the day when he can figure it out. of.She remembered that when she met He Yinrong before, his reaction was so calm, just like Tan Xianghui now, even the silence is so similar.She understands the truth that the water is still and the water is deep, and she knows how many undercurrents are hidden under their calm faces.

She believed in the tacit understanding between the two of them.

The night before Tan Xianghui came to the "Fate" bar, He Yinrong had abnormal insomnia.

Before falling asleep, he called his mother, but it was his father who answered the phone.His father's voice was a little low, and he asked him, "What's wrong?"

In fact, nothing happened, he just wanted to make a phone call home.He Yinrong was thinking like this, but his heart was not relaxed, and his lips seemed to be stuck by something, and he was silent for half a minute.The father on the other end thought it was a bad signal, so he said "Hello" three times in a row, and He Yinrong called out slowly: "Dad."

"Ah."

"Where is Mommy?"

"I'm taking a shower. Do you need to find her?" Thinking that his wife had just entered the bathroom not long ago, Father He continued, "I'll ask her to call you back when she comes out."

"No, no need, I'm fine." It's just a simple call to ask them how they are doing.It's just that he can't say it so frankly.In the past few years, he has not been far away from this city, but he seldom goes home. Several New Years are spent on the train - he would rather hang out in other places than go back.But this month, his state of mind has changed a lot. Those people who thought that there would be no more intersections came to the bar where he worked one after another, and the conversation with them was more relaxed and even pleasant than expected. Even He had sworn to himself that Li Siyan, who would never forgive, was the same.As the quotations that Wenqing people always like to post on social networks say, the past will always pass, and he, who has come out of the past, is full of lightness in every cell of his body, and he even smokes fewer cigarettes.

The changes came so suddenly, but not abruptly, at least he accepted them quickly.

The father and son were silent for a while, and He Yinrong finally couldn't hold back, and asked, "How are you doing?" After asking, he regretted it, his behavior was so strange, father should not think about it...just say it out The words can’t be withdrawn like the news. He’s father heard his words clearly. Although he was surprised, he still replied seriously: “I’m fine.” After a pause, he added: “Your mother is also fine. .”

"Okay, that's all right... I still have something to do, so I'll hang up first." He Yinrong said quickly, and was about to press the red hang up button almost immediately, but at the last second, he heard his father softly say, "Do you want to hang up?" Pay attention to rest."But before he could react, his fingers touched the screen of the phone, and after two beeps, the screen went black.Only then did He Yinrong see his own face reflected on the screen—something seemed to seep out of his eyes, which blurred his entire vision, but a thought became clear in his mind.

The past always passes.He really feels now that he has the strength to put an end to the past, and he is working hard.After the end, there is a new beginning, he believed so.

If he knew that Tan Xianghui also had the same feelings as him, he might not be able to sleep even more.

The day before yesterday, he had a meeting with He Yinrong's old classmate. Ayao didn't expect that the next old classmate would run into a time when He Yinrong was not around.This time it was a tall man, wearing a black sweater and dark jeans, he looked much younger than the last time, but he was quite similar to He Yinrong's temperament.After sitting down at the bar, the man looked around and asked him, "Is He Yinrong here?"

"He's backstage, he'll be back in about 5 minutes." Ayao didn't feel surprised, he just regarded him as an ordinary guest: "Would you like something to drink?"

"He Yinrong will come later, let him make me a cocktail." Tan Xianghui still remembered Fu Lili's original "advice".

During the few minutes of waiting, Tan Xianghui imagined countless expressions when the two met.I don't know if He Yinrong will be surprised or happy, maybe he will punch him, after all, he stabbed him so deeply, because it was an unintentional act, so it is even more difficult to let go.He hoped that He Yinrong's reaction would be more intense, because it meant that he cared. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if he was the only one still brooding over the past?It's a pity that He Yinrong didn't do what he wished.

Under the dim and flickering lights of the bar, the outline of He Yinrong's face was quite clear. Tan Xianghui watched him walking towards this side in a white shirt. He had seen similar scenes too many times, but he didn't mind seeing more Second-rate.He Yinrong didn't raise his head and lowered his eyes, as if he was thinking about something. He didn't look at the person sitting there until he entered the bar and heard A Yao say "Mix a cocktail for this gentleman". The person living in his memory and imagination actually materialized in this way, not far away, looking at him, there was a smile in the dark eyes.

His daze was only for a short moment, and that faint smile infected every nerve in him at an extremely fast speed. The joy in the eyes of the children who have recovered from their mistakes is clear, as if the previous wandering and searching never existed, they just accidentally got lost for a while, and the current reunion is scheduled long ago.Surrounded by an unpredictable fate, he is more at ease than ever.

"Is that the cocktail you ordered?" He asked without any awkwardness in his voice, and while asking, he took a clean glass, neatly.

Tan Xianghui just looked at his eyelashes that trembled when he moved, and after a while, he nodded and said: "Yes."
