Lost [Transmigration Book]
Chapter 50
These words hit the bull's-eye accurately, blocking back all the words that Qiao Nanqi had choked up just now.After Zhao Rong left, every time they met, he seemed to be getting to know a new Zhao Rong.At this moment, he was even thinking, how did such a gentle Zhao Rong be so sharp as to say these words?
He stood in front of Zhao Rong, clearly he was the one looking down at Zhao Rong, but he was the one who didn't leave anything behind.
His heart seemed to be bound layer by layer by the chains formed by these words, and he pulled it hard again—it couldn't be torn apart, but it hurt badly.
The bad things he did to Zhao Rong in the past were all weights to aggravate his current guilt.
He wanted to treat Zhao Rong well, but it became something that Zhao Rong loathed and resented.
He was at a loss and had no choice but to suffer.
So he took a few steps back and said sadly, "Okay, I... I won't do it."
Qiao Nanqi wanted to look at Zhao Rong, but as soon as his eyes met Zhao Rong's, what Zhao Rong said just now appeared in his mind - he didn't even dare to look at him.
"Liu'er," said Zhao Rong, "help me pour it."
He emphasized: "Please, I will burn it again."
Qiao Nanqi staggered a step.
Liu Shun wanted to go out to catch his breath, so he got up and slipped out.
Seeing that Qiao Nanqi was no longer moving, Zhao Rong finally relaxed from the hang-up.He had never done such a radical thing before, so he almost showed his timidity just now. Fortunately, because his stomach still hurts, his complexion must not be very good, covering up his pretended blunt and deliberately outburst posture.
He did it on purpose just now.
He saw that Qiao Nanqi still followed him in, and he still looked guilty and distressed after his sarcasm, knowing that simple words would not be able to persuade this person to leave.
Suddenly, he seemed to think of a possibility.
A person like Qiao Nanqi is a male protagonist for whom the whole world exists and is built, and a proud son of heaven who always gets what he wants in the end even if there are low tides.Perhaps his departure and his current refusal, to Qiao Nanqi, were like a peak that suddenly lay ahead of him. If he climbed over it, it would be nothing. If he couldn't, he would have to fight to the end.
But as long as he didn't stick to his position and softened his heart a little, after Qiao Nanqi climbed the peak, he would still be the one who lost everything and had nothing.
His rational refusal was useless at all.
Zhao Rong knows better than anyone how to pour cold water on a person who is full of expectations, and how to make a person who is unwilling to give up quit.
Although it was intentional just now, he unknowingly vented some of his suppressed temper, so that now he feels excessively tired.
The goal was achieved, he said no more, closed his eyes and rested again.
Xia Yuantu sighed silently.
He was calmer than Liu Shun, and he didn't speak the whole time.
He got up, walked slowly to Qiao Nanqi's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a low voice: "I may not be suitable here, go back first. I will not turn off the sound on my phone tonight. If you and Xingping still If there is anything else, remember to call me."
Qiao Nanqi didn't speak.
Xia Yuantu also knew what kind of temperament Qiao Nanqi was, so he walked away without waiting for an answer.
For a while, the house became quiet again.
Zhao Rong was a little cold, rolled into the quilt, and the whole person shrank into the quilt.
He heard Qiao Nanqi calling for someone to clean up. After a while, the person seemed to be standing by the far door and said to him, "I... sorry, I just..."
"Anyway, I'm sorry."
Zhao Rong didn't move or say a word.
The quilt wrapped him tightly, like a closed space where he could hide, filling him with a sense of security and warmth.
"I came here today because I was worried about some trouble you encountered. I was in a hurry just now and made you unhappy again. I'm sorry. I know that I am not good enough in many places. I will change what you don't like. I am learning," as if afraid Zhao Rong couldn't hear it, so he repeated, "I'm learning."
"I know a lot of things recently, and I want to say sorry to you every day, but I don't have a chance."
"When will you be in a good mood and not be so angry, give me a chance, okay? Don't promise me, just give me a chance, I can prove to you that I like you. Zhao Rong, we still have a possibility. Just now On the day we were together, you were so happy when you signed the agreement, and you even picked out the ring for several days, you—”
There was the sound of a door opening.
Lu Xingping stood at the door holding another room card, glanced at Liu Shun who was waiting for the water to boil outside, and then at the second bedroom which was full of debris on the ground, raised his eyebrows: "Why such a big fight? "
He also looked a little tired, and obviously spent a lot of energy dealing with Yu Xian and those people, but it was completely different from Qiao Nanqi's embarrassment at the moment.
After Liu Shun finished pouring the water, he said, "The water is boiling, and Zhao Rong's stomach hurts."
Lu Xingping glanced at the broken porcelain on the ground again, walked up to pick up the water glass, passed Qiao Nanqi in front of the second bedroom door, and put it beside Zhao Rong: "Do you have a stomachache or a handache? Or have you fallen in love with falling?" thing?"
Zhao Rong heard Lu Xingping's voice in the bed, lifted the quilt and got up: "Senior, are you done?"
Lu Xingping looked slightly cold: "How can you call it finished?"
"?"
"Well, if you're talking about dealing with tonight, it's over," he said, "and then you can do it more often."
Between the words, Zhao Rong could naturally hear that Yu Xian and the others may not have a good life.
Zhao Rong still had a stomach ache, so she sat up at this moment, picked up the lukewarm water that Lu Xingping had just brought, and drank it along with stomach medicine.
Then he said: "I was in a hurry just now, and I couldn't hold back my hands. I hope I didn't cause trouble to the senior."
Beside the door, seeing this scene, Qiao Nanqi clenched his fists, his nails already embedded in his palms.
Zhao Rong can send Liu Shun to work without any burden, and he can also drink the water that Lu Xingping brings in naturally, only him, only what he prepares, what he makes, Zhao Rong doesn't touch it.
Inside the house, Lu Xingping found a chair and sat down, and said, "It's quite troublesome for me if you do it like this."
"??" Zhao Rong was momentarily confused.Could it be that he really caused trouble for Lu Xingping?
Qilian Lu Xingping continued: "It's so troublesome that I can only add two more punches myself—too few punches."
Zhao Rong couldn't help laughing.
He wanted to talk, but from the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of Qiao Nanqi still standing at the door, and the laughter stopped.
But he didn't talk to Qiao Nanqi, he just said to Liu Shun who was outside: "Liu'er, you go back, the seniors are back, I'll chat with the seniors, it's okay."
Liu Shun also knew that this was basically the end of the night, and he left in no time after hearing Zhao Rong's words.
After he left, Zhao Rong still didn't speak.
Qiao Nanqi was not stupid and understood what this silent speech meant.He glanced at Lu Xingping, remembering that Zhao Rong said that he wanted to chat with Lu Xingping just now.
Although he didn't understand for a moment how Zhao Rong, who had nothing to do with Lu Xingping, suddenly became so familiar with Lu Xingping, but he was afraid that Zhao Rong would put down his face like just now, so he turned around and walked out.
Finally, he gently closed the door.
A soft door closing sounded, separating the living room of this suite from the bedroom where Zhao Rong lived into two worlds.
In the past, at his home, he closed the door of the study, and there were him and Lu Xingping inside. Zhao Rong didn't know anything, and couldn't see anything.
Now, a door still cut open two places of peace, but the person sitting alone in the living room was Qiao Nanqi.
After closing the door, he sat on the sofa, still feeling dazed for a while.
When did Zhao Rong and Lu Xingping talk so much?
Zhao Rong looked away from the closed door.
Lu Xingping suddenly said to him, "Thank you for Xiaoyue's matter."
It was rare for him to see Lu Xingping being so solemn, and he didn't know how to respond for a while.After a while, he was worried that Lu Xingping felt that he would repay his kindness, so he said: "I just found out... Liu Shun didn't know the senior, so he didn't dare to look for you, so he came to me. I I didn't arrive at the scene at that time, I didn't know what was going on, and I didn't notify you immediately."
In fact, there was also the reason why Lu Xiaoyue didn't want Lu Xingping to know about it.
Later, Zhao Rong knew that Lu Xiaoyue couldn't be suppressed, so when confronting Yu Xian and others, Zhao Rong asked Liu Shun to call Lu Xingping.
After the chaos of the night, it is now.
Lu Xingping's solemnity lasted only a few seconds.He took out his mobile phone, lowered his head, turned on Xiaoxiaole and started playing, while playing, he said, "It's okay, if you had notified me earlier, maybe I would have beaten him to the police station."
Zhao Rong was surprised - Lu Xingping really didn't look like a person who would do such a thing.
Lu Xingping saw his doubts from his expression, and said: "Xiaoyue was adopted by our family, everyone knows, because she was not brought home since she was a child. When I was in love with her sister, she Already in her teens, she can remember everything clearly. Later, her sister’s family died in a car accident, and she was the only one left, and my parents took her home.”
"I don't object to her falling in love freely, but why is her vision so bad? It's better to find you."
Zhao Rong: "..."
It didn't feel like being praised at all.
He glanced at Lu Xingping's phone screen: "Senior."
"Ok?"
"...You can't pass the level even if you play all the games?"
"..." Lu Xingping twitched the corner of his mouth, restarted the round without any trace, and said, "I'll go and bring Nan Qi in to accompany you."
Zhao Rong immediately admitted: "I was wrong."
When Qiao Nanqi was mentioned, both of them were silent for a moment.
It just so happened that people from the hotel came up to clean up the broken glass on the floor. Zhao Rong and Lu Xingping watched the cleaning, but neither of them spoke.When the door opened, Zhao Rong saw that Qiao Nanqi was still outside. This man was sitting on the sofa in the living room, looking at him from time to time, but did not leave.
Zhao Rong withdrew his gaze, his expression unchanged.
After the cleaning was finished, Zhao Rong gave someone a large tip, and the door was closed again, leaving only Lu Xingping and Zhao Rong in the room.
Zhao Rong was much more comfortable now, he sat up slowly, and was about to mention the marriage contract.
Lu Xingping said, "I received the message you sent me."
"Senior, do you mean to refuse?"
"We seem to have talked about it before." Lu Xingping glanced at the floor that had been cleaned at the moment pointingly, and did not answer the question, "If you finish reading a book you like, you said you would not read it again. all over."
"Yes."
"But have you ever imagined a possibility? Maybe it's just that the ending of this book disgusts you so much that you don't want to open it no matter how much you like it. Even if the book is brought together for you to read again, you will still lose your grace. , swearing. But if the ending changes, you may change your mind. You have read this book for too long, and you like every detail. Your dislike does not come from this book, but from this book The mood that the book brings to you."
"Is there any difference?"
"The former does not want to open this book, and the latter does not have the courage to open this book."
Zhao Rong lowered his eyes and remained silent.
He knew what Lu Xingping meant.
"Actually, what the senior said is right." He didn't evade, and confessed, "It's possible. But I like to look at the results, not the process. Although the reasons for this may be different, in my opinion, it has nothing to do with my not wanting to read this book. Whatever the difference, the result is the same."
"The book my senior gave me that day—I threw it away. Sorry."
"What you want to do with the things I gave you has nothing to do with me."
"It's just that I still hope you can think clearly. To hate a book because of a bad ending is actually a kind of obsession. If you really don't care at all, you won't even remember the content of the book, no There will be likes and dislikes. But what is the reason, you can only know if you open it again."
Zhao Rong opened his mouth.
"You don't need to answer me," Lu Xingping blocked his words, "I'm not here to persuade, nor to enlighten, I just say what I should say as Nan Qi's friend, and as your friend, I don't ask you to answer anything .After that, I will just fulfill my duty as a friend."
"I can understand."
"Finally smart again."
Zhao Rong: "."
Lu Xingping didn't pass the game of Xiao Xiao Le.
Seeing Lu Xingping frowned, Zhao Rong laughed out loud, took Lu Xingping's cell phone, and called it.
The night was darker.
Qiao Nanqi sat outside the door, almost tearing the armrest of the sofa, so he resisted the urge to get up and open the door.
He heard Zhao Rong's laughter.
It wasn't that she just looked at him with cold eyes, nor did she break her habit of being gentle and speak harshly to him, but she laughed easily.
...Zhao Rong had frequent contacts with Lu Xingping before, isn't it because of him?
Qiao Nanqi always felt restless in his heart, and he felt uncomfortable everywhere.
After a while, Lu Xingping came out first.
"I'm going to give Zhao Rong a room to rest next door, his house is too far away," Lu Xingping walked to his side, and said, "Your house is not close, do you want to stay here?"
Qiao Nanqi looked at the half-closed door, and could vaguely see Zhao Rong's figure inside.He nodded.
"Then go ahead and open two rooms. I will sleep in the second bedroom of this suite, and it will be convenient for taking care of Xiaoyue." Lu Xingping said.
Qiao Nanqi: "..."
Zhao Rong rested on the pillow for a while, then got up and walked out of the room.
Lu Xingping directly stayed in the suite reserved for Lu Xiaoyue to rest, he said good night to Lu Xingping, and walked out with Qiao Nanqi.
After closing the door, the two stood on the aisle, and for a while, neither of them moved.
Qiao Nanqi took a look at the bandaged wound on Zhao Rong's hand, and then sneaked a look at Zhao Rong's face - it really looked much better.
He whispered: "You have a good rest tonight. I will not disturb you, I will go to another room to rest."
"Jonan Qi."
Zhao Rong called to Qiao Nanqi who was about to turn around.
Subconsciously, Qiao Nanqi looked at him with expectation.
Zhao Rong's eyes moved lightly.
He fumbled in his pocket, took out something, and slowly spread it out in front of Qiao Nanqi.The silver ring shone slightly under the warm light in the aisle. It lay quietly on Zhao Rong's palm, like the past that once flowed slowly and silently.
Qiao Nanqi was startled, and recognized the ring.
This ring, which he had never paid special attention to before, even though it was just lying on Zhao Rong's palm at this moment, he felt slightly surprised and slightly pleased——Zhao Rong still kept it.
Zhao Rong looked down at the ring, but didn't see Qiao Nanqi's expression.
He just said, "Maybe by chance, I thought I'd lost it, but it was in this coat pocket the whole time. You mentioned the ring, and I thought it was on me..."
As he spoke, out of habit, he still subconsciously glanced at Qiao Nanqi's left hand.
He has boasted in his heart how beautiful these hands are countless times, but he has never waited for these hands to wear the ring he carefully selected.
Qiao Nanqi noticed where his gaze was, curled his fingers unnaturally, and said to him eagerly: "I don't know where I put it. I have been looking for it for the past few days. I will find it. Wait for two more days." -"
He paused.
Zhao Rong was already in front of him, and with a slight movement of his wrist, palm down, he threw the ring flatly on the ground.
The faint silver light suddenly fell down.
Qiao Nanqi seemed to want to stop him, but Zhao Rong's move was too sudden, he stretched out his hand, but failed to grab it.The ring fell to the ground and rolled on the carpet in the hotel without a sound, but lay there quietly for a while.
As if no one cares.
It was like Zhao Rong's cold eyes and rejection time and time again.
Qiao Nanqi opened his eyes wide, and his eyes turned slightly red for a moment.
Zhao Rong just withdrew his hand, bypassed him, and opened his room with the key card.
Not another word was said.
Perhaps Lu Xingping was right.
Maybe he could try opening that book again to see a new ending.
Perhaps the new ending does have the potential to be good.
But in his previous two lives, he had lost too much.At this moment, he finally had something that he could grasp, and he didn't want to change it anymore.
He dare not.
Zhao Rong closed the door and fell asleep.
The next day.
When Zhao Rong opened his eyes, he realized that he was too tired last night, slept too hastily, and didn't close the curtains.
The bright sky shines in through the glass windows, and the outside is vast, with no sunlight, but it is very bright.
In the vast white world, there is the first snow of this winter in Yangcheng.
Zhao Rong rubbed her eyes and was about to get up when someone knocked at the door: "Three—ah, Zhao Rong! Are you awake?"
It was Liu Shun's voice.
He narrowed his eyes and walked to the door with disheveled hair and opened it: "Why are you here at this time?"
"I'm not worried about you. Those people were all there last night, so I dare not stay."
"What can I do?" Zhao Rong asked him to sit down, and went into the bathroom to wash up. "Thank you last night. I'll go to the restaurant later. I'll treat you."
"Then I'm welcome."
When he came out of the shower, Liu Shun was watching the live broadcast of the game with his mobile phone in his hand, and said to him, "I wanted to charge my phone just now, so I pulled out your phone, and saw that Lu Xingping sent you a 'good' word."
He knew Zhao Rong very well, and he didn't have much sense of boundaries, so he asked directly, "What is 'good'?"
Zhao Rong was taken aback.
He didn't think of why Lu Xingping sent him the word "good" at the first time.
He put on his coat, and the last message he sent to Lu Xingping yesterday suddenly appeared in his mind.
Zhao Rong froze suddenly.
——"How is the senior thinking?"
--"it is good."
He stood in front of Zhao Rong, clearly he was the one looking down at Zhao Rong, but he was the one who didn't leave anything behind.
His heart seemed to be bound layer by layer by the chains formed by these words, and he pulled it hard again—it couldn't be torn apart, but it hurt badly.
The bad things he did to Zhao Rong in the past were all weights to aggravate his current guilt.
He wanted to treat Zhao Rong well, but it became something that Zhao Rong loathed and resented.
He was at a loss and had no choice but to suffer.
So he took a few steps back and said sadly, "Okay, I... I won't do it."
Qiao Nanqi wanted to look at Zhao Rong, but as soon as his eyes met Zhao Rong's, what Zhao Rong said just now appeared in his mind - he didn't even dare to look at him.
"Liu'er," said Zhao Rong, "help me pour it."
He emphasized: "Please, I will burn it again."
Qiao Nanqi staggered a step.
Liu Shun wanted to go out to catch his breath, so he got up and slipped out.
Seeing that Qiao Nanqi was no longer moving, Zhao Rong finally relaxed from the hang-up.He had never done such a radical thing before, so he almost showed his timidity just now.

If he climbed over it, it would be nothing. If he couldn't, he would have to fight to the end.
But as long as he didn't stick to his position and softened his heart a little, after Qiao Nanqi climbed the peak, he would still be the one who lost everything and had nothing.
His rational refusal was useless at all.
Zhao Rong knows better than anyone how to pour cold water on a person who is full of expectations, and how to make a person who is unwilling to give up quit.
Although it was intentional just now, he unknowingly vented some of his suppressed temper, so that now he feels excessively tired.
The goal was achieved, he said no more, closed his eyes and rested again.
Xia Yuantu sighed silently.
He was calmer than Liu Shun, and he didn't speak the whole time.
He got up, walked slowly to Qiao Nanqi's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a low voice: "I may not be suitable here, go back first. I will not turn off the sound on my phone tonight. If you and Xingping still If there is anything else, remember to call me."
Qiao Nanqi didn't speak.
Xia Yuantu also knew what kind of temperament Qiao Nanqi was, so he walked away without waiting for an answer.
For a while, the house became quiet again.
Zhao Rong was a little cold, rolled into the quilt, and the whole person shrank into the quilt.
He heard Qiao Nanqi calling for someone to clean up. After a while, the person seemed to be standing by the far door and said to him, "I... sorry, I just..."
"Anyway, I'm sorry."
Zhao Rong didn't move or say a word.
The quilt wrapped him tightly, like a closed space where he could hide, filling him with a sense of security and warmth.
"I came here today because I was worried about some trouble you encountered. I was in a hurry just now and made you unhappy again. I'm sorry. I know that I am not good enough in many places. I will change what you don't like. I am learning," as if afraid Zhao Rong couldn't hear it, so he repeated, "I'm learning."

Just now On the day we were together, you were so happy when you signed the agreement, and you even picked out the ring for several days, you—”
There was the sound of a door opening.
Lu Xingping stood at the door holding another room card, glanced at Liu Shun who was waiting for the water to boil outside, and then at the second bedroom which was full of debris on the ground, raised his eyebrows: "Why such a big fight? "
He also looked a little tired, and obviously spent a lot of energy dealing with Yu Xian and those people, but it was completely different from Qiao Nanqi's embarrassment at the moment.
After Liu Shun finished pouring the water, he said, "The water is boiling, and Zhao Rong's stomach hurts."
Lu Xingping glanced at the broken porcelain on the ground again, walked up to pick up the water glass, passed Qiao Nanqi in front of the second bedroom door, and put it beside Zhao Rong: "Do you have a stomachache or a handache? Or have you fallen in love with falling?" thing?"
Zhao Rong heard Lu Xingping's voice in the bed, lifted the quilt and got up: "Senior, are you done?"
Lu Xingping looked slightly cold: "How can you call it finished?"
"?"
"Well, if you're talking about dealing with tonight, it's over," he said, "and then you can do it more often."
Between the words, Zhao Rong could naturally hear that Yu Xian and the others may not have a good life.
Zhao Rong still had a stomach ache, so she sat up at this moment, picked up the lukewarm water that Lu Xingping had just brought, and drank it along with stomach medicine.
Then he said: "I was in a hurry just now, and I couldn't hold back my hands. I hope I didn't cause trouble to the senior."
Beside the door, seeing this scene, Qiao Nanqi clenched his fists, his nails already embedded in his palms.
Zhao Rong can send Liu Shun to work without any burden, and he can also drink the water that Lu Xingping brings in naturally, only him, only what he prepares, what he makes, Zhao Rong doesn't touch it.
Inside the house, Lu Xingping found a chair and sat down, and said, "It's quite troublesome for me if you do it like this."
"??" Zhao Rong was momentarily confused.Could it be that he really caused trouble for Lu Xingping?
Qilian Lu Xingping continued: "It's so troublesome that I can only add two more punches myself—too few punches."
Zhao Rong couldn't help laughing.
He wanted to talk, but from the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of Qiao Nanqi still standing at the door, and the laughter stopped.
But he didn't talk to Qiao Nanqi, he just said to Liu Shun who was outside: "Liu'er, you go back, the seniors are back, I'll chat with the seniors, it's okay."
Liu Shun also knew that this was basically the end of the night, and he left in no time after hearing Zhao Rong's words.
After he left, Zhao Rong still didn't speak.
Qiao Nanqi was not stupid and understood what this silent speech meant.He glanced at Lu Xingping, remembering that Zhao Rong said that he wanted to chat with Lu Xingping just now.
Although he didn't understand for a moment how Zhao Rong, who had nothing to do with Lu Xingping, suddenly became so familiar with Lu Xingping, but he was afraid that Zhao Rong would put down his face like just now, so he turned around and walked out.
Finally, he gently closed the door.
A soft door closing sounded, separating the living room of this suite from the bedroom where Zhao Rong lived into two worlds.
In the past, at his home, he closed the door of the study, and there were him and Lu Xingping inside. Zhao Rong didn't know anything, and couldn't see anything.
Now, a door still cut open two places of peace, but the person sitting alone in the living room was Qiao Nanqi.
After closing the door, he sat on the sofa, still feeling dazed for a while.
When did Zhao Rong and Lu Xingping talk so much?
Zhao Rong looked away from the closed door.
Lu Xingping suddenly said to him, "Thank you for Xiaoyue's matter."
It was rare for him to see Lu Xingping being so solemn, and he didn't know how to respond for a while.After a while, he was worried that Lu Xingping felt that he would repay his kindness, so he said: "I just found out... Liu Shun didn't know the senior, so he didn't dare to look for you, so he came to me. I I didn't arrive at the scene at that time, I didn't know what was going on, and I didn't notify you immediately."
In fact, there was also the reason why Lu Xiaoyue didn't want Lu Xingping to know about it.
Later, Zhao Rong knew that Lu Xiaoyue couldn't be suppressed, so when confronting Yu Xian and others, Zhao Rong asked Liu Shun to call Lu Xingping.
After the chaos of the night, it is now.

Zhao Rong opened his mouth.
"You don't need to answer me," Lu Xingping blocked his words, "I'm not here to persuade, nor to enlighten, I just say what I should say as Nan Qi's friend, and as your friend, I don't ask you to answer anything .After that, I will just fulfill my duty as a friend."
"I can understand."
"Finally smart again."
Zhao Rong: "."
Lu Xingping didn't pass the game of Xiao Xiao Le.
Seeing Lu Xingping frowned, Zhao Rong laughed out loud, took Lu Xingping's cell phone, and called it.
The night was darker.
Qiao Nanqi sat outside the door, almost tearing the armrest of the sofa, so he resisted the urge to get up and open the door.
He heard Zhao Rong's laughter.
It wasn't that she just looked at him with cold eyes, nor did she break her habit of being gentle and speak harshly to him, but she laughed easily.
...Zhao Rong had frequent contacts with Lu Xingping before, isn't it because of him?
Qiao Nanqi always felt restless in his heart, and he felt uncomfortable everywhere.
After a while, Lu Xingping came out first.
"I'm going to give Zhao Rong a room to rest next door, his house is too far away," Lu Xingping walked to his side, and said, "Your house is not close, do you want to stay here?"
Qiao Nanqi looked at the half-closed door, and could vaguely see Zhao Rong's figure inside.He nodded.
"Then go ahead and open two rooms. I will sleep in the second bedroom of this suite, and it will be convenient for taking care of Xiaoyue." Lu Xingping said.
Qiao Nanqi: "..."
Zhao Rong rested on the pillow for a while, then got up and walked out of the room.
Lu Xingping directly stayed in the suite reserved for Lu Xiaoyue to rest, he said good night to Lu Xingping, and walked out with Qiao Nanqi.
After closing the door, the two stood on the aisle, and for a while, neither of them moved.
Qiao Nanqi took a look at the bandaged wound on Zhao Rong's hand, and then sneaked a look at Zhao Rong's face - it really looked much better.
He whispered: "You have a good rest tonight. I will not disturb you, I will go to another room to rest."
"Jonan Qi."
Zhao Rong called to Qiao Nanqi who was about to turn around.
Subconsciously, Qiao Nanqi looked at him with expectation.
Zhao Rong's eyes moved lightly.
He fumbled in his pocket, took out something, and slowly spread it out in front of Qiao Nanqi.The silver ring shone slightly under the warm light in the aisle. It lay quietly on Zhao Rong's palm, like the past that once flowed slowly and silently.
Qiao Nanqi was startled, and recognized the ring.
This ring, which he had never paid special attention to before, even though it was just lying on Zhao Rong's palm at this moment, he felt slightly surprised and slightly pleased——Zhao Rong still kept it.
Zhao Rong looked down at the ring, but didn't see Qiao Nanqi's expression.
He just said, "Maybe by chance, I thought I'd lost it, but it was in this coat pocket the whole time. You mentioned the ring, and I thought it was on me..."
As he spoke, out of habit, he still subconsciously glanced at Qiao Nanqi's left hand.
He has boasted in his heart how beautiful these hands are countless times, but he has never waited for these hands to wear the ring he carefully selected.
Qiao Nanqi noticed where his gaze was, curled his fingers unnaturally, and said to him eagerly: "I don't know where I put it. I have been looking for it for the past few days. I will find it. Wait for two more days." -"
He paused.
Zhao Rong was already in front of him, and with a slight movement of his wrist, palm down, he threw the ring flatly on the ground.
The faint silver light suddenly fell down.
Qiao Nanqi seemed to want to stop him, but Zhao Rong's move was too sudden, he stretched out his hand, but failed to grab it.The ring fell to the ground and rolled on the carpet in the hotel without a sound, but lay there quietly for a while.
As if no one cares.
It was like Zhao Rong's cold eyes and rejection time and time again.
Qiao Nanqi opened his eyes wide, and his eyes turned slightly red for a moment.
Zhao Rong just withdrew his hand, bypassed him, and opened his room with the key card.
Not another word was said.
Perhaps Lu Xingping was right.
Maybe he could try opening that book again to see a new ending.
Perhaps the new ending does have the potential to be good.
But in his previous two lives, he had lost too much.At this moment, he finally had something that he could grasp, and he didn't want to change it anymore.
He dare not.
Zhao Rong closed the door and fell asleep.
The next day.
When Zhao Rong opened his eyes, he realized that he was too tired last night, slept too hastily, and didn't close the curtains.
The bright sky shines in through the glass windows, and the outside is vast, with no sunlight, but it is very bright.
In the vast white world, there is the first snow of this winter in Yangcheng.
Zhao Rong rubbed her eyes and was about to get up when someone knocked at the door: "Three—ah, Zhao Rong! Are you awake?"
It was Liu Shun's voice.
He narrowed his eyes and walked to the door with disheveled hair and opened it: "Why are you here at this time?"
"I'm not worried about you. Those people were all there last night, so I dare not stay."
"What can I do?" Zhao Rong asked him to sit down, and went into the bathroom to wash up. "Thank you last night. I'll go to the restaurant later. I'll treat you."
"Then I'm welcome."
When he came out of the shower, Liu Shun was watching the live broadcast of the game with his mobile phone in his hand, and said to him, "I wanted to charge my phone just now, so I pulled out your phone, and saw that Lu Xingping sent you a 'good' word."
He knew Zhao Rong very well, and he didn't have much sense of boundaries, so he asked directly, "What is 'good'?"
Zhao Rong was taken aback.
He didn't think of why Lu Xingping sent him the word "good" at the first time.
He put on his coat, and the last message he sent to Lu Xingping yesterday suddenly appeared in his mind.
Zhao Rong froze suddenly.
——"How is the senior thinking?"
--"it is good."
