Lost [Transmigration Book]
Chapter 71
Accompanied by the human voice, rock music constantly hits the eardrums of people.
Although this place is a bar, the consumption is quite high, the people who come here are either rich or expensive, and every table is far away.
It's just that the atmosphere at some tables is too high, and some booing can always be heard from time to time.
Qiao Nanqi didn't come from the company today, so he rarely wore a slightly informal sweater and jeans. He passed through one table after another, bypassing several people and asking for contact information with their mobile phones.
When he arrived at the scene, Xia Yuantu immediately got up and said, "Why don't you sit with me?"
Another mutual friend immediately pulled Xia Yuantu to sit down: "What are you doing, didn't you reserve a seat for Qiao Da?"
There is only one vacancy on site.
Next to the empty seat, Lu Xingping sat there, holding a glass of beer in his hand, and smiled at him: "Nan Qi is here."
Only then did Qiao Nanqi know why Xia Yuantu was in a hurry to give up his seat.
It's actually normal for others to reserve this seat for him.
He has the best relationship with Lu Xingping and Xia Yuantu, everyone knows that.In the past, when I went out to play, the seats were reserved like this.
Xia Yuantu frowned, his eyes full of sadness, as if he was afraid that he would leave at any time.
But Qiao Nanqi didn't really care about this.
He came here only because of Xia Yuantu's words "Zhao Rong won't come".
He sat down next to Lu Xingping with a cold face. Fortunately, the lights were too dim, so no one noticed his expression.
Seeing that he sat down silently, the rest of the people started to play when everyone was present. In an instant, their table became noisy.
Lu Xingping seemed to be the same as when he was not married to Zhao Rong in the past, nothing changed, he chatted with others from time to time, and occasionally blocked others' words.
Qiao Nanqi poured himself a glass of white wine, took a sip first, then raised the glass and said to Lu Xingping, "Come on."
Just this one word is neither light nor heavy, but it seems to carry a lot of strength.
Lu Xingping understood what he meant, put down the beer in his hand, poured a glass of white as well, and clinked a glass with him.
The two drank.
Lu Xingping asked him, "Have you suffered from insomnia recently?"
In the past, when Qiao Nanqi met him, the first question was always this.
"No," Qiao Nanqi said, "I just dream a lot."
Who is in the dream, needless to say.
Without being tactful, Qiao Nanqi directly asked his purpose of coming here today: "Where's Zhao Rong?"
"Ok?"
"Why didn't he come?"
"Why did he come?"
"He's not at your house?"
Xia Yuantu listened to the two people's back and forth questions, and felt that he was going to lose three years of his life.
He also poured himself a full glass, wanting to join in and find a reason to drink to change the subject.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xingping nodded and said calmly, "Not here."
Qiao Nanqi paused.
The meaning of these words was a bit difficult to understand, and he didn't respond for a while.
He came over in such a hurry, it was really a subconscious reaction to this kind of thing.
after all……
He's done this before.
When he was with Zhao Rong before, even if Zhao Rong requested, he never brought Zhao Rong to such an occasion again.In the past, he thought that it was because Zhao Rong was in trouble and had played enough games all day long, but later he found out that it was just his hidden desire to possess, and he didn't want to see Zhao Rong hooking up with others.
But loving someone should not be in that way, neither of these two reasons should arise.
So he came over, and he wanted to ask Lu Xingping why Zhao Rong didn't come.
But Lu Xingping told him that Zhao Rong was not at home.
What does absent mean?
Isn't Zhao Rong at Lu Xingping's house?
Are you not here tonight?
That might make sense, too.After all, Zhao Rong and Liu Shun's group played well. Maybe they were playing here, and Zhao Rong was also playing on the other side. After being pulled out by Liu Shun, naturally they would not come to play with them with Lu Xingping.
Someone else had come over and dragged Xia Yuantu and Lu Xingping to play dice. That person wanted to drag Qiao Nanqi, but Qiao Nanqi was sitting there without saying a word. I dare not come up at all.
When Qiao Nanqi came back to his senses, Lu Xingping frowned: "I'm a referee, you know, I never play."
Lu Xingping stretched out his hand and unwrapped the new dice that the waiter had just brought up.
When he moved his fingers, the complicated wedding ring on his ring finger was exposed.The lights in the bar were dim, and there were many colorful dim lights. Under such light, the wedding ring was sometimes conspicuous and sometimes obscured.
Qiao Nanqi looked at it for a while, then looked away.
Lu Xingping was still wearing a wedding ring.
Still aboveboard wearing her wedding ring.
His worry seemed unnecessary.
Qiao Nanqi looked away, drank a few more sips of wine, stopped thinking about it, and chatted with other people occasionally as usual.
Except for the three of them present, who knew the past between Qiao Nanqi and Zhao Rong, in the eyes of others, Zhao Rong was still just the person who once chased after Qiao and then fulfilled his marriage contract with Lu Xingping. We spent the southern period together.
I don't know how long I drank it.
Qiao Nanqi hadn't been to such an occasion for a long time, so this time he took advantage of the atmosphere to be presumptuous. Even if no one came to drink with him, he still drank on his own.
Half drunk and half awake, it seemed that someone asked Lu Xingping: "Why hasn't Xingping come all this time?"
"Take Xiaoyue out for a trip."
……
After returning home, Qiao Nanqi took a bath in a daze, and when he lay down on the bed, the words that Lu Xingping said tonight popped up again.
Since the last time he met Lu Xingping in front of Zhao Rong's now sold house, today is the first time he has seen each other in more than a month.
He had imagined many times, maybe in the near future, he would see Lu Xing usually mention Zhao Rong, or see Lu Xingping and Zhao Rong at the same time.
... Anyway, not today.
What Lu Xingping said didn't look like a newly married person.
Tonight's meeting, no matter what, seemed to reveal that something was wrong.
But he was too drunk.
His insomnia also healed naturally, but the dizziness was still there.
Not long after lying down, Qiao Nanqi fell asleep.
This time, the dream was too complicated.
It was as if in his more than twenty years of life, everything was mixed together and stuffed into his dreams, there was everyone.
I dreamed all night, but I can't remember anything, I just feel very tired.
The end of the dream is that sentence again.
——"I may not love you."
He woke up with a terrible headache.
At that time, it was dark all around, and I didn't know it was that time in the middle of the night.
It took a long time before Qiao Nanqi fell asleep again, and when he woke up again, sunlight filtered in through the cracks in the curtains.
It turned out that the sun was already high.
Qiao Nanqi's drunkenness dissipated, and the things that were wrong last night and the subtle traces he saw before finally came together in his mind.
He vaguely had some conjectures, which were so vague that he couldn't even construct a complete answer.
But he actually felt that these wrong answers might be good answers for him.But because it might be a good answer, he couldn't believe his own judgment.
He has not encountered good news for a long time.
He didn't even think he deserved any more good news.
But his heart was eager to try again, as if there was a voice in his mind whispering to him: "Be bold, go and check it, and you will know."
It happened that Xiao Wu sent him a timely message: "Sir, you asked me to transfer those things to Mr. Lu and Mr. Zhao for you more than a month ago. Mr. Lu told me today that he would transfer them back to me. "
Holding the phone, Qiao Nanqi suddenly sat up on the bed.
Xiao Wu was a little confused today.
He had been busy for a few days to transfer those things to Lu Xingping. Lu Xingping said it was good at the time, and he would check with Zhao Rong slowly and then share the points.
But for some reason today, Lu Xingping suddenly wanted to return all those things to Qiao Nanqi.
When Xiao Wu first received the news, the first thing Xiao Wu worried about was Qiao Nanqi's reaction.
What does it mean?The congratulatory gift that had been sent out for more than a month suddenly had to be returned intact.No matter how you think about it, Qiao Nanqi will not be happy.
But Qiao Nanqi was very happy.
In fact, I can't say I am very happy, but when I came to the company today, the air pressure around my body was not as low as usual, and my eyes were slightly brighter, and they were not as completely lifeless as the day before.
This may be normal for others.
But this can be regarded as "very happy" for Qiao Nanqi.
Moreover, not only was Qiao Nanqi not angry, he actually asked him to go to Lu Xingping's house to hand over immediately.
It looked like he was eager to get these things back quickly.
With doubts, Xiao Wu went to Lu Xingping's house to get some documents.
When he returned to Qiao Nanqi's office, Qiao Nanqi didn't take a look at those things, but asked him, "When you went to his house, did you feel any changes in his house?"
"Ah?" Xiao Wu was a little confused - how to ask such a far-fetched question?
He thought that even if Qiao Nanqi didn't care about those documents, if he wanted to ask, he would definitely be asking if Zhao Rong was at Lu Xingping's house.
When he went there, he asked Lu Xingping specifically if Zhao Rong was around, and Lu Xingping told him "no".
But the prepared answer was useless, he had no choice but to recall what he saw after he entered Lu Xingping's house, and he was right about the memory of going to Lu Xingping's house for some things before.
"No," he said, "I haven't been to the room, the drawing room and the study are exactly the same as before. There's nothing wrong—"
Nothing is different.
He wanted to say this, but before he finished speaking, he realized that something was wrong.
...Didn't Zhao Rong move to Lu Xingping's house for a month?
Why did Lu Xingping's family remain unchanged?
"Put down your work in the company today," Qiao Nanqi said to him, his voice still deep, but his tone was not as calm and lifeless as the previous book, "Go and find out the guest list for Zhao Rong's wedding day, I want to be there Everyone's."
"Oh, alright!"
Xiao Wu vaguely felt that their husband seemed to be investigating a very important matter.
The wedding banquet list was not a secret. After all, Xiao Wu was working with Qiao Nanqi, so he got it in less than an hour.
After he gave the list to Qiao Nanqi, Qiao Nanqi asked him to wait, and then closed the door by himself, as if studying the wedding banquet list.
Then Xiao Wu encountered the most outrageous job in the years since he worked as Qiao Nanqi's assistant.
It's an even more outrageous job than buying a little-known pet store that has nothing to do with the company's business.
After studying the wedding list, Qiao Nanqi asked him to buy a wedding planning company, two law firms, and a nursing home as quickly as possible.
Although this place is a bar, the consumption is quite high, the people who come here are either rich or expensive, and every table is far away.
It's just that the atmosphere at some tables is too high, and some booing can always be heard from time to time.
Qiao Nanqi didn't come from the company today, so he rarely wore a slightly informal sweater and jeans. He passed through one table after another, bypassing several people and asking for contact information with their mobile phones.
