one to two

Ai You's wish to take a bath with Qi Xin came true at the end of the day.Qi Xin's eyes remained hazy after being happy, and her rosy lips were shiny. Ai You looked at her, her eyes began to blur, and the serious scrubbing on her hands turned into a gentle caress.

Qi Xin took a look at her and said in a hoarse voice, "Aren't you going to work tomorrow?"

Ai You raised her eyebrows, knowing that Qi Xin was telling her to let it go, she sighed: "A thousand dollars can't buy a happy spring."

Hearing this, Qi Xin looked at the person next to him with a little surprise, and said softly, "Sex."

Ai You helped Qi Xin rinse off the foam, and said confidently: "Food, sex, and sex."

"Next time I'll show you my human nature, what do you think?" Qi Xin took a towel to wipe off the water droplets on his body, looked at Ai You with a serious expression.

Ai You's cheeks blushed immediately, she was thinking about something in her mind, and she began to dodge the sight of Qi Xin.Qi Xin looked at her, and said again: "Physical fitness cannot be developed in a day or two, but it shouldn't be too late for you to work hard from now on."

After Qi Xin finished speaking, she opened the door and went out. Ai You quickly cleaned herself up. This person is too amazing. She just blushed and avoided Qi Xin's gaze. Why was everything she was thinking in her heart seen? Woolen cloth?

The wall lamp was turned on in the bedroom, and the bed sheets had been replaced with new ones. Even so, there was still the smell of being infatuated just now in the air.The curtains were half opened, Ai You walked out of the balcony, and Qi Xin was lying on the rocking chair in that light blue nightdress, staring at the night sky with his eyes open, and still had some unfinished red wine in his hand.

"Can't sleep?" Ai You leaned against the door, she couldn't see what Qi Xin was thinking, she could only feel that Qi Xin's thoughts were drifting far away, maybe Qi Xin didn't know what she was thinking either.Ai You didn't know why she had these strange thoughts, but at the moment she was the same as Qi Xin, with no sleepiness in her eyes.

"Not sleepy, this spot is very quiet and cool, sitting here feels very clear-headed." Qi Xin said, took a sip of wine, and looked at the endless sky again, with a moving light in his eyes.Ai You took two steps forward, staring into her eyes, trying to grasp the starlight inside her palm.

"Your eyes are brighter than the stars."

Qi Xin looked at the obsessed man in front of him, and felt that the red wine seemed to be sweetened with honey, so sweet to his heart.She shook the last liquid in the glass and said with a smile: "You praise me so much, I won't be able to fall asleep when I'm happy later."

Ai You didn't care and said: "I'll chat with you if I can't sleep." She said, walked into the room, brought out a small table, and then took out wine bottles, glasses and a small bench.

After adding wine to their glasses, Ai You sat beside Qi Xin and said in a low voice: "I used to have this kind of time too. After the time to fall asleep, the whole person is very energetic. At this time, I read a book or draw a picture. It’s easy to throw yourself into it, and the only downside is that you’ll be so sleepy the next afternoon.”

"Are you implying that you will doze off tomorrow afternoon?" Qi Xin put the glass on the table, looked at Ai You and asked with a smile.It was already in the middle of the night, and the moon sank again, and its color was slightly darker red. There was a thin cloud around the crescent moon, and at first glance it seemed to be covered with a layer of red mist.

"How is it possible, you are sitting next to me!" Ai You opened her eyes wide in disbelief.

Qi Xin smiled, reached out to rub Ai You's hair, she glanced at Ai You's cup, and changed the subject: "If you don't like drinking, don't drink so much."

It's not that Qi Xin doesn't like to hear Ai You say these words, but she's not sure what kind of affectionate words Ai You will say if she continues to speak. These honeyed words will arouse her shyness in her heart.

"This wine is delicious, not as irritating as ordinary wine." Ai You said, taking a sip from the glass, and then said: "But we still can't drink too much, we will go to bed after drinking this glass Bar?"

"It's time to go to bed." After Qi Xin finished speaking, she glanced at the crescent moon in the sky again, where the clouds were getting thicker and thicker, half of the moonlight was covered.

Ai You got up and went to the edge of the balcony to look up. At some point, the originally clean night sky was half covered by clouds. She turned her head and said: "The stars that can be seen in this place are getting less and less. I will take you there some other day. Play in places with many stars. Looking around, many constellations are clearly visible in the sky. My favorite is the Big Dipper. Unfortunately, not all seasons can see Ursa Major, which is closely connected with it. But along the Big Dipper The two stars in Doukou are also fun to find Polaris..."

Qi Xin quietly listened to Ai You's description, and had a lot of imagination about these happy and beautiful things.The vast starry sky, the endless grasslands, and perhaps the mountains and rivers, exotic villages and towns, these places have left Ai You's free footprints.She remembered that on the way to the seaside hot spring, what Ai You said was wandering around the world. If she could wander the world, would she be able to walk around freely like Ai You?In fact, walking is not the purpose, she just wants to go to these places that Ai You has been to, and experience her feelings at that time.

Ai You sticks to her full attendance record as always, no matter how late she goes to bed, she still has to fight back her drowsiness to get up to work.

When it was near noon, Qi Xin's cell phone buzzed and vibrated. She looked at the notification of the incoming call, first turned her head to look at Ai You, and then answered the phone.Ai You originally thought that the call was about business, but she didn't pay much attention to it at first, until she felt Qi Xin's gaze was on her, and then she raised her head.

"I already have someone else for lunch. I'm free at one o'clock. I wonder if it's convenient for you?"

"It's in the coffee shop opposite our company."

Qi Xin hung up the phone, looked at the time, and said to Ai You: "I have to go out after dinner later."

"Okay, do I need to prepare anything?" Ai You took off her glasses and asked seriously.

Qi Xin looked at Ai You quietly for a few seconds, then said with a smile: "No, you can sleep for a while before I come back."

This is the second time Qi Xin walked into this coffee shop, the first time was when he saw Ai You with a water lily.When she walked into the store, Yuan Ye was sitting by the window reading a magazine, and there was only a glass of water in front of him.

After Qi Xin was seated, Yuanye glanced behind her inadvertently, and then called the waiter to take an order.He looked at Qi Xin from a close distance, and then remembered the contents of those photos last night. The words that he was going to get straight to the point were suddenly blocked in his throat.

Qi Xin saw that Yuan Ye had something to say but couldn't speak, thinking about what he said on the phone that he had a personal matter to discuss, so he broke the deadlock and said in a flat voice, "Ai You didn't come."

"No, I'm not looking for her." Yuan Ye shook his head, paused, and said in a deep voice: "I saw some photos yesterday, about you and Ai You."

When Qi Xin heard this, her heart skipped a beat, and Yuanye would not hesitate to agree to meet her at one o'clock. It must not be an ordinary photo.She thought to herself for a moment, and quickly settled down. Except when she was sleeping at night, Ai You didn't cling to herself very much, and it was even more impossible for her to make any intimate actions with Ai You in public, except... …I couldn’t help myself in the car a few times, is this also being photographed?

Seeing that Qi Xin's face remained unchanged and his eyes were calm as usual, Yuanye either Qi Xin was too calm or those photos were synthetic.He lowered his head and took a sip of coffee, thought over these assumptions and reality over and over again, and continued: "I have known Ai You for almost ten years, and she has always been alone, and I have never met her before." Who has her eyes stayed on, except that she met you by chance at the open-air bar before the Chinese New Year, that time, with so many people at the same table, she almost only looked at you seriously, I think, she really likes you."

"Yes." Qi Xin affirmed Yuan Ye's statement, then said no more, and added a cube of sugar to her own cup of coffee.She knew Yuan Ye's feelings for Ai You from the very beginning, so what can she say now?Only by figuring out what the purpose of the wilderness is, can this communication continue.

Yuanye saw Qi Xin's reaction, and this woman didn't even evade or hesitate at all. Could it be that she didn't know what kind of negative impact this kind of thing might have?Qi Xin's performance at work fully shows that she is a person with rigorous thinking, and it is impossible not to consider these things.Or is she just interested in Ai You on a whim and doesn't value it?

It's a pity that Qi Xin's expression remained the same, as if what they were talking about was just a trivial matter.Of course, Yuan Ye knew that this was just Qi Xin's self-cultivation, or distance, when facing ordinary people. What he wanted to know more now was Ai You's real situation.

"Then do you have the same feelings for her? Are you as serious as her?" Yuan Ye knew that if he continued to deal with Qi Xin, he would not get any results, so he might as well ask the question directly. If she was willing to answer, she would definitely Say what you really think.

Qi Xin took a sip of the coffee, it didn't taste that bitter, and she didn't like too bitter things either.Yuan Ye maintained his original gentlemanly demeanor, but when he asked the second question, there was a flash of eagerness in his eyes.But even so, in what capacity did he ask Qi Xin these questions?

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't ask such a personal question. But I don't mean anything malicious, I just don't want Ai You to be hurt." Yuan Ye knew that Qi Xin's silence was actually a counterattack to him.

"Mr. Yuan, please don't worry, Ai You is safe with me." Qi Xin said, showing a slight smile, and continued: "Thank you for reminding me about the photo, this kind of thing will never happen again in the future."

When Yuan Ye heard Qi Xin mention the photo, he realized his original intention of making this trip.He straightened his mind and said in a low voice: "Miss Qi, as far as I know, Director Yan has been paying close attention to your marriage. Of course Ai You is safe with you, but you think you can convince Director Yan to accept you and her Is it the relationship between them? A relationship that cannot last long, is it not a kind of harm to the person involved? "

"I will serve my parents well, but my personal relationship issues are still up to me." Qi Xin's voice was clear and firm.

"What about Ai You's parents? It doesn't mean they will accept your service, right? Ai You and her parents have been away from each other since childhood. Do you think her parents will give Ai You to someone of the same gender as her?" Take care of it?" Yuan Ye originally thought that Qi Xin knew his parents after all, and it was only a matter of time to convince them, but it might be difficult to find a breakthrough for Ai You's parents.

Hearing this, Qi Xin couldn't help but think of what Fang Suqing had said to her back then, and the eyes that looked at Yuanye gradually softened, and the distance between them shortened to the width of a square table.

"Ai You's mother once told me that they hope that Ai You can walk on the right path and choose the life she wants. Perhaps it is because of the attitude of Ai You's parents that I finally strengthened my determination to go on with her. .”

These words undoubtedly cut off the last road in the wilderness. Could it be that Ai You's parents already knew about this?Now that Ai You's parents have already recognized Qi Xin, what else can he say?

"Aren't you worried that those photos will be circulated and cause bad public opinion on you and her? It will affect your work?" Yuan Ye was not reconciled, he did not believe that there was no gap between the two women.

"I think you've helped Ai You deal with those photos." Qi Xin finished speaking, drank the last sip of coffee, and continued: "I will tell Ai You about this, let her treat you to dinner another day, and Not just to thank you, can you find the time?"

Yuan Ye was silent. After seeing those photos last night, he originally thought that he could completely let go of the girl in his heart. Until now, he knew that he had no chance at all, and the unprecedented loss and powerlessness were intertwined in his body.

After all, there is a difference between imagination and reality, and now he can only swallow this difference alive.After all, the woman sitting opposite him is no less than a man in many aspects, and the most important thing is that Ai You chose her.
