After wearing it for seven years, the dead enemy said he loved me
Chapter 043 Poor
Although the Yao family is not as good as the Qin family and the Bai family, they still have a certain reputation in the upper class circle of the imperial capital.
After Yao Xi's father died, his eldest brother inherited the company. Although the other brothers and sisters were assigned to other companies in various fields under the Yao family name, the company was still controlled by the Yao family group as a whole.
This time, Yao Xi's marriage was a joint marriage between two families. Many dignitaries from the imperial capital were invited. The wedding scene was very grand, and almost 80.00% of the famous families in the imperial capital gathered.
It wasn’t too early for Qin Chaoci to arrive at the scene. As soon as he got the news, Yao’s family rushed out to greet him. Yao Xi’s elder brother also came out to greet Qin Chaoci himself, and politely welcomed him in. Please.
Sending invitations to Qin Chaoci is purely polite. No one thought that Qin Chaoci would really come? Come on, even the Yao family was very surprised.
But it's okay if Qin Chaoci doesn't come, because once he comes, he respects the great Buddha. The Qin family has begun to take shape in Qin Zhen's hands, and it will be even better in Qin Chaoci's hands.
There are many rich people in the imperial capital, but the Qin family's level of wealth cannot be found in the whole country? After a few days, the attitude of the Yao family towards Qin Chaoci can be said to be extremely cautious.
Bai Luo and Qin Chaoci arrived one after another. The crew of "Man Jiuxiao" temporarily planned to shoot a set of makeup photos before the Spring Festival, so Bai Luo rushed directly to Yao's house after taking the makeup photos.
Those who can participate in this wedding are all familiar faces. These high-ranking families in the imperial capital may not be familiar to everyone, but they are all familiar. The moment Bai Luo appeared, he attracted a lot of attention.
Not only because the Bai Group is fighting among themselves, but also because of the relationship between Bai Luo and Yao Xi.
It's not a secret that Bai Luo and Jiang Chengzhou are fighting to seize power in the imperial capital? It's not a secret, let alone Yao Xi's participation in it.
And Bai Luo saved the last bit of dignity because of their decades-long friendship, and did not mention Yao Xi's betrayal to the outside world.
Although everyone doesn't know what happened between Yao Xi and Bai Luo, but do they know? Since then, Bai Luo and Yao Xi have completely fallen apart.
The Yao family and the Bai family have no more contact, including Jiang Chengyun and the Yao family.
Know? After Bai Luo came to the wedding banquet uninvited, Yao Xi's eldest brother became vigilant, and walked quickly towards the garden of the wedding scene, where Bai Luo was.
"Mr. Bai." Brother Yao Xi said.
Bai Luo wore a dark gray suit today, and his hair was combed back. Because he had just finished taking a makeup photo, some details of the makeup hadn't been removed in time, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of surprise.
Brother Yao Xi paused. Although his sexual orientation is heterosexual, people's perception of beautiful things is always in their bones.
"Hello, Mr. Yao." Bai Luo nodded lightly.
Brother Yao Xi is now over [-] years old and has a calm temperament. Bai Luo still remembers when he knew that Yao Xi would occasionally be at home? He was bullied by his elder brother. Brother on his way home? He beat him up.
Now that his friendship with Yao Xi is no longer, seeing these old friends again seems like a lifetime away.
How did Yao Xi and Bai Luo break up? Brother Yao Xi knows very well. His ineffective illegitimate younger brother has no way of trying to monopolize a part of the property. But with Jiang Chengyun's help, Brother Yao Xi still has to divide into several companies. Give Yao a rest.
But that's all, the final control is still in the hands of the president of the Yao Family Group, who is also him.
Now the benefit of Yao Xi's initiative to marry is the entire Yao family. Brother Yao Xi will never allow any accidents at the wedding scene, and in his eyes, Bai Luo is the "unstable factor".
If Bai Luo dared to make trouble at the wedding venue... Thinking of this? Brother Yao Xi asked people to strengthen security, and his tone of voice towards Bai Luo was not particularly polite.
"Mr. Bai, I know? You used to be good friends with Yao Xi, but today is an important occasion for Yao Xi. Many of the guests present are distinguished. I hope you will think carefully before doing anything. .”
Bai Luo didn't think about what he would do to Yao Xi when he came here this time, but after listening to Brother Yao Xi's words, he just felt that it was boring.
Bai Luo's appearance and Brother Yao Xi's not-so-good face made the two of them become the focus of everyone even in the garden. Bai Luo looked at Brother Yao Xi calmly, and was about to speak. An arm suddenly stretched out to wrap around Bai Luo's shoulder.
"Why did you arrive just now? I told someone to pick you up, but you refused." Qin Chaoci, who was in the inner court, walked into the garden at some point, and wrapped his arms around Bai Luo's shoulders, speaking in a friendly and always stern tone. Serious face? With a slight smile.
Bai Luo was in a bad mood, and his tone was naturally not? It was very good, "I also just arrived, and then I was stopped by Mr. Yao and gave him a big blow."
Brother Yao Xi's face froze. Didn't expect Bai Luo to speak? It was so straightforward, without showing any sympathy.
Staring at the stiff body of the man across from him, Bai Luo raised his eyebrows in displeasure. Today? Yao Xi got married, Yao Xi didn't say anything, but his elder brother ran over to show him a vicious and eccentric look, what does that mean?
"I brought Luoluo here. If Mr. Yao is dissatisfied, we can leave now." Qin Chaoci put the wine glass in his hand on the table casually, with a cold tone, and his face sank. Holding Bai Luo's hand, he turned around and was about to leave.
Brother Yao Xi was taken aback, and subconsciously tried to stop him. They don't need to try to please the Qin family, but they must not offend the Qin family.
"I didn't mean that. Mr. Bai must have misunderstood, misunderstood." Brother Yao Xi explained.
The people around didn't seem to pay much attention to the movement here, but in fact, everyone raised their ears and enlarged their eyes, wishing to keep every movement here in their hearts.
Several banquets in the imperial capital? Qin Chaoci has Bai Luo beside him, and he is eager to protect Bai Luo in both words and actions. Those who speculated that Qin Chaoci wanted to take advantage of Bai Luo's downfall to humiliate him severely They all silently closed their mouths.
They had never seen Qin Chaoci care so much about a person in front of the public. Could it be that the previous feud between the two was only superficial?Actually? The two have long been secretly in love?But what's the point of pretending to be discordant?
Countless questions are in the minds of bystanders? Brother Yao Xi is no exception.
He had also heard rumors about Qin Chaoci and Bai Luo, but even so, he didn't take it to heart? Because of his thoughts? Just like everyone else, how could Qin Chaoci like Bai Luo? He just wanted to take the opportunity Just humiliate him.
But after the personal contact, he completely changed his mind? The intimate physical contact and some tiny gestures between the two of them may not be as simple as everyone thought.
Only Yao Xi and the bride are in the spacious wedding room, which is covered with happy characters. The door of the wedding room is closed tightly. Only the sound of sobbing and the man's reprimand float out through the crack of the door.
Today is Yao Xi's wedding day, he should be happy, but at the moment he doesn't feel any joy at all.
Wearing a white groom's dress, Yao Xi is sitting on the sofa, smoking cigarettes one after another fidgety. Outside are dignified figures from the imperial capital who came to the wedding banquet. Everyone politely sends blessings. Inside, the bride Sitting on a beautiful wedding bed in a white wedding dress? Sobbing and crying.
Because of his irritability, Yao Xi smoked fiercely. After a while, the wedding room, which was relatively large in size, was already filled with the smell of smoke.
The bride, clutching her stomach and crying, broke down and shouted, "Can you stop smoking! I can't smoke secondhand smoke!"
Yao Xi looked at the tears on the bride's face, and said tauntingly: "You can't smoke second-hand smoke when you are pregnant with a child, but the child is mine!" Even so, Yao Xi stubbed out the cigarette, and Open the window to let in the air.
The bride was blocked by Yao Xi's words? Other words? She just sobbed.
Outside the window is the blue sky? A pure white bird soars in the sky. Yao Xi stands by the window, feeling cold all over his body. From the moment he decides to get engaged, to getting the certificate and then to holding the wedding ceremony, he is in a daze like a walking dead. It's like living your own life.
Until now, looking at the birds outside the window and the hustle and bustle of people's voices under the window, he finally had a sense of reality? He was really going to get married.
But his wife in name doesn't have any emotional basis with him at all. They have known each other for only three months, and the number of times they get along alone is even more so. The child of the former lover, and the bride herself has not given up on the former lover.
Under the window, a young guest looked up and saw the groom's face, greeted him enthusiastically, and kindly reminded him not to miss the auspicious time. Yao Xi reluctantly smiled and nodded, closed the window, and looked back at the bride.
"Stop crying." Yao Xi said impatiently, "What's the use of crying! You agreed to the marriage, and I accept all the children. What do you want from me?"
"Now that the guests invited to the wedding have arrived at the scene, how many friends of your father and mother? You said that if you don't get married, you won't get married? Our marriage is not only a matter between us, but a relationship between our two families." between things."
Yao Xi was sitting on the sofa decadently. This ridiculous life was like a bloody drama in a novel. The bride wanted to escape before marriage, and she didn't want to get married anymore.
"But I really don't want to get married. I'm pregnant with his child, and he also wants to marry me. If I..." The bride looked at Yao Xi pleadingly, "Yao Xi, can you help me..."
"Help you for what? Help you escape marriage?" Yao Xi's temples twitched with severe pain, "Do you believe it today? You told your parents that you won't marry me. Tomorrow? They can send You go to the hospital and kill the child."
Yao Xi walked to the bed where the bride was sitting, squatted down, grabbed the bride's hand, pulled her in front of him, almost gritted his teeth and said, "You figure it out! Are you able to keep this child now?" Because I found someone like me who is willing to accept you, otherwise, your child would have been gone long ago!"
The bride was stunned for a second and then burst into tears. The makeup on her face was almost faded from crying. Yao Xi stood up and took a step back, looking at her indifferently. He didn't have any thoughts of pity. They were essentially the same All of them are just pawns of the family, just tools to make the family icing on the cake.
"You can tell me after you think it through. The wedding ceremony can be postponed, but it will never be cancelled." Yao Xi said.
After saying these words, Yao Xi left the room without looking back, closed the door, and looked at the empty small living room. There was a moment of confusion on Yao Xi's face.
Suddenly he seemed to hear a familiar name, Bai Luo.
Qin Chaoci led Bai Luo around and passed Brother Yao Xi. Before the two of them had time to say a few words, a white figure rushed towards Bai Luo like a whirlwind.
No one thought that the groom would run out by himself before the wedding ceremony started.
"Bai Luo... Bai Luo, are you here?" Yao Xi felt like he was dreaming.
He thought that Bai Luo would never forgive him, nor would he want to know any news about him, so Yao Xi didn't even send him an invitation when they got married, but Bai Luo came here on his own initiative. .
Yao Xi's eyes turned red instantly.
When Yao Xi looked at Bai Luo excitedly, Bai Luo was also quietly looking at Yao Xi seven years later. Bai Luo thought that the moment he saw Yao Xi would definitely be so excited, whether he asked him why To betray so many years of friendship is to marvel at his appearance seven years later.
But unexpectedly, Bai Luo was very calm at this moment, so calm that he seemed to have completely accepted the fact that he and Yao Xi were no longer friends.
Seven years later, Yao Xi has not changed much. He has grown taller and his skin has become fairer. He has well-defined muscles and wears a white suit. He looks like a son of a rich family. Playing casually, often as dirty as in the mud? Rolling children are completely different.
Ten years is enough for him to wash away the imprints of life, and transform himself into the young master of a wealthy family.
"Congratulations on your marriage, I wish you a happy wedding and a loving husband and wife." Bai Luo stretched out his hand to Yao Xi with a calm expression, as if he was just wishing a good friend.
Yao Xi held Bai Luo's hand tightly and refused to let go? He was emotional, and his body was still trembling slightly. Qin Chaoci frowned fiercely. If Yao Xi didn't let go, he wouldn't mind helping him. help him.
"Lolo... I didn't expect you to come? I thought you wouldn't come. Did you forgive me?" Yao Xi was a little incoherent with excitement, "I'm really happy, very, very happy, You're the happiest thing about this wedding."
"When you were in high school, you told me that if you got married, you must invite me to be your best man, and I agreed." Bai Luo recalled that childish and ridiculous promise in high school.
At that time, they had nothing to worry about, nothing to worry about, and they still held a bright vision for the future, thinking that they could be good friends for a lifetime.
"I will definitely do what I promised. I can't do it as a best man, so coming to have a wedding can be regarded as fulfilling my promise." Bai Luo said.
Yao Xi looked at Bai Luo, opened his mouth, his heart was pierced like a knife, as if a thousand small knives were cutting his heart to the brim with blood.
His eyes were red, as if dripping blood, "I..." He wanted to say a thousand words to Bai Luo, but Bai Luo turned his head away, as if waking up from a dream, and the people around him were eager The call brought Yao Xi back to his sanity.
"Yao Xi, what are you still doing here?" The best man came to ask Yao Xi, "The bride is looking for you."
The bridegroom woke up instantly. He looked at Bai Luo and saw Qin Chaoci next to Bai Luo. Qin Chaoci and Bai Luo were standing close together. He lowered his head and asked Bai Luo. I nodded.
The atmosphere between them is so tight, it seems that no one can get in.
"Luo Luo, wait for me, don't leave first, I beg you, you must wait for me!" Yao Xi grabbed Bai Luo's hand suddenly, begged and said a few words, and then had no choice but to walk with the best man up.
In the wedding room, the bride has wiped away her tears, and the makeup artist is touching up her makeup. Her hands are placed on her abdomen, as if she can feel a sense of courage and strength from here.
"I figured it out, there is no need to postpone the wedding, let's go ahead as usual, there is time." The bride said, "She has no ability to break free from the shackles of her family. She is a silk flower, unable to live independently, and she accepts her fate.
After the wedding was held, she and Yao Xi were only a couple in name, she just couldn't be with her lover properly.
Yao Xi absent-mindedly nodded his head. There was not much joy on his face. Seeing Yao Xi's distraught appearance through the makeup mirror, the bride couldn't help but said, "Why are your eyes so red? Are you still looking like this? Is your ex-girlfriend here?"
Yao Xi shook his head, he stood up and tried to calm himself down, "Just figure it out, it's just a marriage anyway, you can do whatever you want after marriage, and you don't have to worry about me."
The bride nodded.
In the garden of the wedding scene? Bai Luo and Qin Chaoci walked together. This time at the banquet? Qin Chaoci took a very close look at Bai Luo, guarding him every inch of the way. on the belt?
"Do you think Yao Xi will? Don't you think I'm mocking him when Yao Xi comes to his senses?" Bai Luo asked Qin Chao to resign.
In fact, congratulations on Yao Xi's happy wedding, Bai Luo really didn't think so much when the couple were in love, he was just simply saying congratulations.
But after he finished speaking, he also felt that it was inappropriate, because Yao Xi didn't marry the person he liked at all. The words of conjugal love? It's also ironic and heart-wrenching.
Qin Chaoci shook his head and said, "I don't know? He definitely doesn't think you're mocking him. I just think you're really good to him."
In fact, when Qin Chaoci saw Yao Xi excitedly holding Bai Luo's hand just now, Qin Chaoci felt a little bit of a taste in his heart. Yao Xi and Bai Luo have been close friends since junior high school, and he occupied Qin Chaoci's favorite place. Bai Luo's youth who participated but failed to participate.
But Qin Chaoci also knows? The relationship between Yao Xi and Bai Luo is pure friendship, and there is no other intention, otherwise Qin Chaoci would not? Allow them to be friends for so many years.
"He used to be really pitiful." Bai Luo stopped walking, as if caught in some kind of memory.
Yao Xi had a bad time when he was admitted back to the Yao family. Yao's father didn't value him, and Yao's mother didn't like him because of his status as an illegitimate child. Although no one abused Yao Xi physically, he often didn't have enough to eat, and his life was not as good as those of ordinary children.
After Bai Luo knew about it, he felt sorry for him, and often took him back to his home for dinner. Later, Yao's father found out that Yao Xi and Bai Luo had a good relationship, and then he took a little care of him, at least let Yao Xi have a good relationship with him. Got a room of my own.
"And he is quite pitiful now." Bai Luo really felt that Yao Xi was also pitiful now, although all this was his own choice and he had to suffer on his own.
"He betrayed friendship, and even regarded love and marriage as bargaining chips for profit." Bai Luo sighed, "What good will it be for him to be rich even in the future? No friendship, no love, no kinship. This kind of life is too Painful."
Qin Chaoci lowered his head and looked at Bai Luo earnestly. Bai Luo felt a little uncomfortable. He lowered his head and thought about what he said. Did Qin Chaoci think he was too hypocritical?
Perhaps for some people, affection can be discarded, but no matter what other people think, in Bai Luo's heart, no matter whether it is family, love or friendship, they are an indispensable part.
"Do you think my thoughts are childish and funny?" Bai Luo pursed his lips, "I know? You successful people have always thought that those who achieve great things don't care about small things. Since you want to be successful, you don't need to care about these..."
Bai Luo's words? In the middle of speaking, Qin Chaoci gently pinched his chin, and his rough fingertips stroked the soft lower lip.
"Bai Luo, has anyone ever said that your heart is so soft?" Qin Chao resigned.
Bai Luo looked grumpy and not to be trifled with, but his heart was softer than anyone else's. Even though he was the one who suffered the betrayal, he still said that Yao Xi was pitiful, and he was even willing to come to his wedding.And all this tolerance stems from their ten-year friendship.
At this moment, Qin Chaoci was inevitably jealous of Yao Xi, if one day, Bai Luo was also so soft-hearted towards him, it would be great.
Bai Luo blushed immediately, and stammered, "No...no."
Is he soft hearted?Bai Luo thought about it for a while, and felt that there was no such thing.
Qin Chaoci smiled, his smile was like a winter plum blossom, Bai Luo was taken aback for a moment, and then he also laughed foolishly.
Bai Luo didn't go to see the wedding ceremony. Qin Chaoci accompanied him to wander around the other places of the wedding venue. They were discussing Yao Xi's wedding.
Although everyone knows that this is just a family marriage, the bride and groom have no feelings for each other, but this is too obvious.
At the wedding ceremony, not only was there no confession link, but the parents of both parties came to the stage to give speeches, and they just said a few words and then ended in a hurry.
Listening to their discussion, Bai Luo sighed silently in his heart. From now on, he must marry the one he loves, and marry the one he doesn't like, even for one day? He will feel extremely painful.
Can Bai Luo and Qin Chaoci leave after the ceremony? But Bai Luo never said that he wanted to leave. Qin Chaoci knew? He was still thinking about Yao Xi's words in his heart, so he waited indulgently with him.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Yao Xi to come in a hurry. After seeing Bai Luo's figure, he breathed a sigh of relief. He walked up to Bai Luo, looked at Qin Chaoci, hesitated for a few seconds, and asked: "Lolo, can I have a few words with you alone?"
Bai Luo turned his head and glanced at Qin Chaoci. Qin Chaoci's expression turned cold, but he didn't say anything, and walked away silently.
Yao Xi took Bai Luo to a hidden outdoor balcony in the banquet hall. Although it was winter, the sun's rays were scorching hot today, baking on people's body? It was very warm and comfortable.
The two each occupied a corner of the balcony, and neither of them spoke? Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
After being silent for a while, Yao Xi said slowly, "Luo Luo, I'm sorry."
I'm sorry Yao Xi has said it too many times, and Bai Luo has listened to it too many times on WeChat? Text messages? Phone calls? But no amount of apologies can save Yao Xi from hurting Bai Luo.
Bai Luo didn't speak? He just looked at the scenery outside the balcony.
Yao Xi closed his eyes, he didn't hear the answer he wanted, he thought that the wedding that Bai Luo was willing to attend was to forgive him, but he didn't expect it was just his wishful thinking.
Bai Luo knew what Yao Xi meant, but he wouldn't forgive him, because Bai Luo was not qualified to forgive Yao Xi for himself seven years later.
He didn't empathize with him, but he knew that he would be in pain seven years later, because now he knew that Yao Xi had betrayed him, not to mention Bai Luo, who had been with him for a longer time.
The longer the time, the deeper the relationship, and the deeper and more painful the stabbing knife from the back.
"If it's just an apology, I think you should know my answer." Bai Luo said, "Is there nothing else to say? I'll go first."
"Yao Xi, I wish you the last blessing. I hope this is really the life you want." Bai Luo said.
Being hurt by a friend is painful, but it's not a solution to let the wound not heal and let it rot? Bai Luo tried his best to cut himself off from the past. He had a sad past.
But he will gradually get better, the company will be regained, and his career will be improved. People must look forward, and the road must go forward.
This is why Bai Luo took the initiative to show up at Yao Xi's wedding. He didn't want the past to hold him back and drag him down.
Bai Luo's last words? It was like a sharp arrow piercing Yao Xi's heart fiercely. The dazzling sun's rays shot down and shone in front of his eyes, making him confused.
He lost his most sincere friend and married a wife who didn't love him at all. He used these in exchange for the treatment in front of the company, but every time he returned to the Yao family mansion? His elder brother always reminded him of the illegitimate child. identity.
If...if he could be given another chance? and he made? a different choice, what would be the result?
He didn't betray Bai Luo, Bai Luo might have regained the Bai Group, although he lost his inheritance rights under the control of his elder brother, but Bai Luo wouldn't? Watching him helplessly like this...
Yao Xi didn't dare to think about it anymore, his heart was beating like a drum, and he opened his bow without turning back. He told himself desperately that there should be no regrets, and once he had them, he would live in pain and regret forever.
Yao Xi's face was pale, like a walking corpse, and he nodded, "I'm very satisfied with this kind of life, this is what I want." It was difficult for him to say this, and he didn't know whether to say it to Bai Luo or not. Listen to yourself.
"It's good if you're satisfied." Bai Luo nodded? Nod? Up to now, he and Yao Xi have nothing else to say. You can say more, this friendship has come to an end forever in Bai Luo's heart.
Seeing that Bai Luo was about to leave, Yao Xi subconsciously said, "Wait a minute, Luo Luo."
Did Yao Xi not forget that he was in the garden just now? When he saw Bai Luo, the face of Qin Chaoci beside him was full of possessiveness and the intimate gesture between them.
Thinking back to this point, a pain appeared on Yao Xi's face. He was the one who was sorry for Bai Luo.
The time point when Bai Luo and Qin Chaoci got together? The time point when Bai Luo failed in the company's internal struggle? It's so similar, why don't you understand it?
If it wasn't for him, Bai Luo wouldn't? Fail, and wouldn't? Be taken advantage of by Qin Chaoci and humiliated by others.
"Qin Chaoci...he, does he treat you well?" Yao Xi had also heard the rumors from outsiders. Although seeing Qin Chaoci and Bai Luo getting along today was not like what others said, Yao Xi still Conscience.
"Yao Xi, you are the least qualified to ask this question?!" Bai Luo finally got angry.
Others don't understand the twists and turns, Yao Xi? Don't you understand?If it wasn't because of him, would Bai Luo have resigned from signing the nurturing agreement with Qin Chao?
Although Qin Chaoci was very kind to Bai Luo, but every point counts for one point, Yao Xi has no right to ask Bai Luo at all!
"I'm sorry." Yao Xi tugged at his hair in pain, "I have no other meaning, I just want to tell you, Luo Luo, Qin Chaoci is not a good person, even if he treats you very well now, no one will say Not allowed in the future..."
Yao Xi's words were repeated on Bai Luo's angry point? Jumping up and down, Bai Luo glared at him and said, "Maybe he will stab me in the future?"
"You said that Qin Chaoci is not a good person, but he helped me and slowly took the Bai Group back from Jiang Chengyun's hands. He is a gentleman, and he doesn't say he does things in an aboveboard manner, but at least he won't? Stab someone in the back. thing!"
Bai Luo was very angry, why did Yao Xi criticize Qin Chaoci?
Yao Xi was rendered speechless by Bai Luo's words, and said anxiously: "But I think he has been coveting you for a long time, and he just seized this opportunity..."
Yao Xi’s words? Didn’t finish, Qin Chaoci opened the curtain of the window, and walked in like no one was there. Yao Xi seemed to be choked by someone, and the remaining half of the sentence was stuck in his throat, and he swallowed it again .
"Your elder brother is looking for you." Qin Chaoci said to Yao Xi.
Yao Xi didn't know? Qin Chaoci heard a lot, but his eyes were dark, his temperament was cold, and there seemed to be a chill in his speech, which made Yao Xi shiver uncontrollably.
After Yao Xi left, Bai Luo memorized what he hadn't finished saying, but didn't intend to ask any more.
Qin Chaoci has coveted himself for a long time?Bai Luo doesn't know? Should he believe Yao Xi's words? But right now he doesn't want to think about these things anymore.
While Qin Chaoci was calm on the surface, but actually his heart was beating faster. He didn't know? When did Yao Xi discover his feelings for Bai Luo, but just a little bit? Bai Luo already knew?!
If Bai Luo really found out, Qin Chaoci would have the heart to kill Yao Xi!
After returning from Yao Xi's wedding banquet, Qin Chaoci was nervous for several days? He was afraid that Bai Luo would not be able to figure out Yao Xi's words? But Bai Luo seemed to have forgotten the unfinished sentence? Bring it up again, get along with Qin Chaoci as usual.
Qin Chaoci heaved a sigh of relief, but he was also a little disappointed. He was in a complicated mood. He was afraid of letting Bai Luo know, but he couldn't help but wonder what kind of reaction Bai Luo would have if he knew that he had loved him for so many years. .
There is always a glimmer of hope in his heart, hoping that one day? Bai Luo will also? Like himself like he likes him.
As the New Year approaches, the imperial capital snows one after another, and outside is a vast expanse of white space. Bai Luo used to stay at home, but now he doesn't like to go out even more. He stays at home every day, warm The toasty floor heating keeps the home warm and dry.
The floor was so hot that sometimes Bai Luo didn't bother to wear slippers, so he just stepped on the floor in fluffy floor socks, nestled in the corner of the balcony, and read books all day long in the bright sunlight.
It wasn't until Yu Shun told him that he wanted him to record a few videos of New Year greetings in advance for posting during the New Year that Bai Luo realized that the Chinese New Year was coming soon.
The merchants outside have hung up the prosperous red lanterns. As the New Year is approaching, the New Year’s goods in the supermarkets are also put on the shelves early. The Spring Festival is the most important festival for Chinese people. Countless people start early Looking forward to the New Year, prepare for it in advance.
Bai Luo went out for a while, only to find that there are fewer cars and people on the busy street on weekdays, and many people have returned to their hometowns for the New Year.
The Spring Festival is supposed to be a family reunion. Bai Luo is at home? Watching the TV, looking at the kitchen? Aunt Chen, who is still busy, sniffs.
Yu Shun and other colleagues in the studio have already left the imperial capital to go home for the New Year. After tomorrow, Aunt Chen will also go home for the New Year.
But where is my home?Bai Luo was a little "sad", and didn't want Aunt Chen to find him sad, so he lay on the sofa alone and wiped away his tears by himself while watching a heart-wrenching TV series.
Living here in Qin Chaoci was so comfortable that Bai Luo almost forgot that this was not his home, he also had a house, but that house was so cold that no one lived in it for a long time.
Going home to celebrate the New Year, Qin Chaoci also wants to go back to the Qin family's old house to celebrate the New Year. He has a grandfather and parents.
Bai Luo never thought of going back to a home with Jiang Chengyun and Jiang Chengzhou? Although he was very reluctant to celebrate the New Year, this year he had to accept the reality that he had to spend the New Year alone.
On the twenty-ninth of the new year, Bai Luo drank the spare rib soup stewed by Aunt Chen, and waited for Qin Chaoci to come home from work. Tonight, Aunt Chen will officially leave work. Immediately? In this room? Only Bai Luo and Qin Chao resigned from two people.
Bai Luo didn't want to be alone, so he desperately hoped that Qin Chaoci could return home before Aunt Chen left.
Fortunately, God was good to Bai Luo. His wish was heard. When Aunt Chen dragged the suitcase to the entrance, the door of the house was opened, and Qin Chaoci walked in wearing a coat. .
Seeing that Aunt Chen was about to leave, Qin Chao asked the driver not to drive the car into the garage, and sent Aunt Chen to the high-speed railway station. He also wrapped a big thick red envelope for Aunt Chen. Aunt Chen was so happy Eyebrows widened, Bai Luo stood not far away and smiled foolishly.
"What are you laughing at?" Seeing Bai Luo's smiling face when he got home, Qin Chaoci's mood improved, and he changed his shoes and went to him to wipe his soft hair.
Bai Luo shook his head, trotted into the kitchen and took a bowl of spare rib soup for Qin Chaoci, "Drink it while it's hot, Aunt Chen's stewed soup is really delicious, but unfortunately it won't be available until half a month later."
He was still quite reluctant, but Aunt Chen had been living in Qin's house to take care of Qin Chaoci and Bai Luo's daily life, how many more days would she be released after the Chinese New Year? It was also appropriate for her to be reunited with her family.
Qin Chaoci lowered his head and took a sip of the soup. Bai Luo looked at him, thought for a long time, and then said, "Tomorrow? It's New Year's Eve. You don't have to go to work in the company, do you?"
The man drank the soup in the bowl in one gulp, nodded and nodded. In fact, he didn't know how to go back so late in previous years. He returned to the Qin family's old house around the twentieth, seven or eight. This time, he was afraid of Bai Luo. I'm not used to it, so I stayed in the company for a few more days.
Bai Luo let out a sigh of disappointment. In fact, he also knew? Qin Chao's resignation tomorrow? Definitely going back to the Qin family's old house, but he still didn't give up and asked.
In the past few days, Bai Luo has never asked about Qin Chaoci's arrangements for the Spring Festival. He knows? He has an ostrich mentality. a little?.
"A few days after your new year? Don't you have any work arrangements?" Qin Chaoci asked, wiping his mouth.
Bai Luo shook his head and said, "The work has been done in advance, and Yu Shun has also returned home for the New Year. He will not return to Beijing until the tenth or fifth day of the first lunar month."
It means that when Shun returns to Beijing, "Man Jiuxiao" is about to start? At that time, Bai Luo will join the filming team.
Qin Chao said: "That's just right. Tomorrow? Morning? Noon, when you wake up, we'll go back to the old house for lunch."
Bai Luo nodded subconsciously, and when he realized the meaning of Qin Chao's speech, he was surprised and said, "Me, me? Shall I go back with you to celebrate the New Year?"
Qin Chaoci frowned when he saw Bai Luo's reaction, "You don't want to go?"
Bai Luo shook his head and nodded again. In fact, he also thought about Qin Chao's resignation? No? Take him back for the New Year, but he thought about it
After Yao Xi's father died, his eldest brother inherited the company. Although the other brothers and sisters were assigned to other companies in various fields under the Yao family name, the company was still controlled by the Yao family group as a whole.
This time, Yao Xi's marriage was a joint marriage between two families. Many dignitaries from the imperial capital were invited. The wedding scene was very grand, and almost 80.00% of the famous families in the imperial capital gathered.
It wasn’t too early for Qin Chaoci to arrive at the scene. As soon as he got the news, Yao’s family rushed out to greet him. Yao Xi’s elder brother also came out to greet Qin Chaoci himself, and politely welcomed him in. Please.
Sending invitations to Qin Chaoci is purely polite. No one thought that Qin Chaoci would really come? Come on, even the Yao family was very surprised.
But it's okay if Qin Chaoci doesn't come, because once he comes, he respects the great Buddha. The Qin family has begun to take shape in Qin Zhen's hands, and it will be even better in Qin Chaoci's hands.
There are many rich people in the imperial capital, but the Qin family's level of wealth cannot be found in the whole country? After a few days, the attitude of the Yao family towards Qin Chaoci can be said to be extremely cautious.
Bai Luo and Qin Chaoci arrived one after another. The crew of "Man Jiuxiao" temporarily planned to shoot a set of makeup photos before the Spring Festival, so Bai Luo rushed directly to Yao's house after taking the makeup photos.
Those who can participate in this wedding are all familiar faces. These high-ranking families in the imperial capital may not be familiar to everyone, but they are all familiar. The moment Bai Luo appeared, he attracted a lot of attention.
Not only because the Bai Group is fighting among themselves, but also because of the relationship between Bai Luo and Yao Xi.
It's not a secret that Bai Luo and Jiang Chengzhou are fighting to seize power in the imperial capital? It's not a secret, let alone Yao Xi's participation in it.
And Bai Luo saved the last bit of dignity because of their decades-long friendship, and did not mention Yao Xi's betrayal to the outside world.
Although everyone doesn't know what happened between Yao Xi and Bai Luo, but do they know? Since then, Bai Luo and Yao Xi have completely fallen apart.
The Yao family and the Bai family have no more contact, including Jiang Chengyun and the Yao family.
Know? After Bai Luo came to the wedding banquet uninvited, Yao Xi's eldest brother became vigilant, and walked quickly towards the garden of the wedding scene, where Bai Luo was.
"Mr. Bai." Brother Yao Xi said.
Bai Luo wore a dark gray suit today, and his hair was combed back. Because he had just finished taking a makeup photo, some details of the makeup hadn't been removed in time, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of surprise.
Brother Yao Xi paused. Although his sexual orientation is heterosexual, people's perception of beautiful things is always in their bones.
"Hello, Mr. Yao." Bai Luo nodded lightly.
Brother Yao Xi is now over [-] years old and has a calm temperament. Bai Luo still remembers when he knew that Yao Xi would occasionally be at home? He was bullied by his elder brother. Brother on his way home? He beat him up.
Now that his friendship with Yao Xi is no longer, seeing these old friends again seems like a lifetime away.
How did Yao Xi and Bai Luo break up? Brother Yao Xi knows very well. His ineffective illegitimate younger brother has no way of trying to monopolize a part of the property. But with Jiang Chengyun's help, Brother Yao Xi still has to divide into several companies. Give Yao a rest.
But that's all, the final control is still in the hands of the president of the Yao Family Group, who is also him.
Now the benefit of Yao Xi's initiative to marry is the entire Yao family. Brother Yao Xi will never allow any accidents at the wedding scene, and in his eyes, Bai Luo is the "unstable factor".
If Bai Luo dared to make trouble at the wedding venue... Thinking of this? Brother Yao Xi asked people to strengthen security, and his tone of voice towards Bai Luo was not particularly polite.
"Mr. Bai, I know? You used to be good friends with Yao Xi, but today is an important occasion for Yao Xi. Many of the guests present are distinguished. I hope you will think carefully before doing anything. .”
Bai Luo didn't think about what he would do to Yao Xi when he came here this time, but after listening to Brother Yao Xi's words, he just felt that it was boring.
Bai Luo's appearance and Brother Yao Xi's not-so-good face made the two of them become the focus of everyone even in the garden. Bai Luo looked at Brother Yao Xi calmly, and was about to speak. An arm suddenly stretched out to wrap around Bai Luo's shoulder.
"Why did you arrive just now? I told someone to pick you up, but you refused." Qin Chaoci, who was in the inner court, walked into the garden at some point, and wrapped his arms around Bai Luo's shoulders, speaking in a friendly and always stern tone. Serious face? With a slight smile.
Bai Luo was in a bad mood, and his tone was naturally not? It was very good, "I also just arrived, and then I was stopped by Mr. Yao and gave him a big blow."
Brother Yao Xi's face froze. Didn't expect Bai Luo to speak? It was so straightforward, without showing any sympathy.
Staring at the stiff body of the man across from him, Bai Luo raised his eyebrows in displeasure. Today? Yao Xi got married, Yao Xi didn't say anything, but his elder brother ran over to show him a vicious and eccentric look, what does that mean?
"I brought Luoluo here. If Mr. Yao is dissatisfied, we can leave now." Qin Chaoci put the wine glass in his hand on the table casually, with a cold tone, and his face sank. Holding Bai Luo's hand, he turned around and was about to leave.
Brother Yao Xi was taken aback, and subconsciously tried to stop him. They don't need to try to please the Qin family, but they must not offend the Qin family.
"I didn't mean that. Mr. Bai must have misunderstood, misunderstood." Brother Yao Xi explained.
The people around didn't seem to pay much attention to the movement here, but in fact, everyone raised their ears and enlarged their eyes, wishing to keep every movement here in their hearts.
Several banquets in the imperial capital? Qin Chaoci has Bai Luo beside him, and he is eager to protect Bai Luo in both words and actions. Those who speculated that Qin Chaoci wanted to take advantage of Bai Luo's downfall to humiliate him severely They all silently closed their mouths.
They had never seen Qin Chaoci care so much about a person in front of the public. Could it be that the previous feud between the two was only superficial?Actually? The two have long been secretly in love?But what's the point of pretending to be discordant?
Countless questions are in the minds of bystanders? Brother Yao Xi is no exception.
He had also heard rumors about Qin Chaoci and Bai Luo, but even so, he didn't take it to heart? Because of his thoughts? Just like everyone else, how could Qin Chaoci like Bai Luo? He just wanted to take the opportunity Just humiliate him.
But after the personal contact, he completely changed his mind? The intimate physical contact and some tiny gestures between the two of them may not be as simple as everyone thought.
Only Yao Xi and the bride are in the spacious wedding room, which is covered with happy characters. The door of the wedding room is closed tightly. Only the sound of sobbing and the man's reprimand float out through the crack of the door.
Today is Yao Xi's wedding day, he should be happy, but at the moment he doesn't feel any joy at all.
Wearing a white groom's dress, Yao Xi is sitting on the sofa, smoking cigarettes one after another fidgety. Outside are dignified figures from the imperial capital who came to the wedding banquet. Everyone politely sends blessings. Inside, the bride Sitting on a beautiful wedding bed in a white wedding dress? Sobbing and crying.
Because of his irritability, Yao Xi smoked fiercely. After a while, the wedding room, which was relatively large in size, was already filled with the smell of smoke.
The bride, clutching her stomach and crying, broke down and shouted, "Can you stop smoking! I can't smoke secondhand smoke!"
Yao Xi looked at the tears on the bride's face, and said tauntingly: "You can't smoke second-hand smoke when you are pregnant with a child, but the child is mine!" Even so, Yao Xi stubbed out the cigarette, and Open the window to let in the air.
The bride was blocked by Yao Xi's words? Other words? She just sobbed.
Outside the window is the blue sky? A pure white bird soars in the sky. Yao Xi stands by the window, feeling cold all over his body. From the moment he decides to get engaged, to getting the certificate and then to holding the wedding ceremony, he is in a daze like a walking dead. It's like living your own life.
Until now, looking at the birds outside the window and the hustle and bustle of people's voices under the window, he finally had a sense of reality? He was really going to get married.
But his wife in name doesn't have any emotional basis with him at all. They have known each other for only three months, and the number of times they get along alone is even more so. The child of the former lover, and the bride herself has not given up on the former lover.
Under the window, a young guest looked up and saw the groom's face, greeted him enthusiastically, and kindly reminded him not to miss the auspicious time. Yao Xi reluctantly smiled and nodded, closed the window, and looked back at the bride.
"Stop crying." Yao Xi said impatiently, "What's the use of crying! You agreed to the marriage, and I accept all the children. What do you want from me?"
"Now that the guests invited to the wedding have arrived at the scene, how many friends of your father and mother? You said that if you don't get married, you won't get married? Our marriage is not only a matter between us, but a relationship between our two families." between things."
Yao Xi was sitting on the sofa decadently. This ridiculous life was like a bloody drama in a novel. The bride wanted to escape before marriage, and she didn't want to get married anymore.
"But I really don't want to get married. I'm pregnant with his child, and he also wants to marry me. If I..." The bride looked at Yao Xi pleadingly, "Yao Xi, can you help me..."
"Help you for what? Help you escape marriage?" Yao Xi's temples twitched with severe pain, "Do you believe it today? You told your parents that you won't marry me. Tomorrow? They can send You go to the hospital and kill the child."
Yao Xi walked to the bed where the bride was sitting, squatted down, grabbed the bride's hand, pulled her in front of him, almost gritted his teeth and said, "You figure it out! Are you able to keep this child now?" Because I found someone like me who is willing to accept you, otherwise, your child would have been gone long ago!"
The bride was stunned for a second and then burst into tears. The makeup on her face was almost faded from crying. Yao Xi stood up and took a step back, looking at her indifferently. He didn't have any thoughts of pity. They were essentially the same All of them are just pawns of the family, just tools to make the family icing on the cake.
"You can tell me after you think it through. The wedding ceremony can be postponed, but it will never be cancelled." Yao Xi said.
After saying these words, Yao Xi left the room without looking back, closed the door, and looked at the empty small living room. There was a moment of confusion on Yao Xi's face.
Suddenly he seemed to hear a familiar name, Bai Luo.
Qin Chaoci led Bai Luo around and passed Brother Yao Xi. Before the two of them had time to say a few words, a white figure rushed towards Bai Luo like a whirlwind.
No one thought that the groom would run out by himself before the wedding ceremony started.
"Bai Luo... Bai Luo, are you here?" Yao Xi felt like he was dreaming.
He thought that Bai Luo would never forgive him, nor would he want to know any news about him, so Yao Xi didn't even send him an invitation when they got married, but Bai Luo came here on his own initiative. .
Yao Xi's eyes turned red instantly.
When Yao Xi looked at Bai Luo excitedly, Bai Luo was also quietly looking at Yao Xi seven years later. Bai Luo thought that the moment he saw Yao Xi would definitely be so excited, whether he asked him why To betray so many years of friendship is to marvel at his appearance seven years later.
But unexpectedly, Bai Luo was very calm at this moment, so calm that he seemed to have completely accepted the fact that he and Yao Xi were no longer friends.
Seven years later, Yao Xi has not changed much. He has grown taller and his skin has become fairer. He has well-defined muscles and wears a white suit. He looks like a son of a rich family. Playing casually, often as dirty as in the mud? Rolling children are completely different.
Ten years is enough for him to wash away the imprints of life, and transform himself into the young master of a wealthy family.
"Congratulations on your marriage, I wish you a happy wedding and a loving husband and wife." Bai Luo stretched out his hand to Yao Xi with a calm expression, as if he was just wishing a good friend.
Yao Xi held Bai Luo's hand tightly and refused to let go? He was emotional, and his body was still trembling slightly. Qin Chaoci frowned fiercely. If Yao Xi didn't let go, he wouldn't mind helping him. help him.
"Lolo... I didn't expect you to come? I thought you wouldn't come. Did you forgive me?" Yao Xi was a little incoherent with excitement, "I'm really happy, very, very happy, You're the happiest thing about this wedding."
"When you were in high school, you told me that if you got married, you must invite me to be your best man, and I agreed." Bai Luo recalled that childish and ridiculous promise in high school.
At that time, they had nothing to worry about, nothing to worry about, and they still held a bright vision for the future, thinking that they could be good friends for a lifetime.
"I will definitely do what I promised. I can't do it as a best man, so coming to have a wedding can be regarded as fulfilling my promise." Bai Luo said.
Yao Xi looked at Bai Luo, opened his mouth, his heart was pierced like a knife, as if a thousand small knives were cutting his heart to the brim with blood.
His eyes were red, as if dripping blood, "I..." He wanted to say a thousand words to Bai Luo, but Bai Luo turned his head away, as if waking up from a dream, and the people around him were eager The call brought Yao Xi back to his sanity.
"Yao Xi, what are you still doing here?" The best man came to ask Yao Xi, "The bride is looking for you."
The bridegroom woke up instantly. He looked at Bai Luo and saw Qin Chaoci next to Bai Luo. Qin Chaoci and Bai Luo were standing close together. He lowered his head and asked Bai Luo. I nodded.
The atmosphere between them is so tight, it seems that no one can get in.
"Luo Luo, wait for me, don't leave first, I beg you, you must wait for me!" Yao Xi grabbed Bai Luo's hand suddenly, begged and said a few words, and then had no choice but to walk with the best man up.
In the wedding room, the bride has wiped away her tears, and the makeup artist is touching up her makeup. Her hands are placed on her abdomen, as if she can feel a sense of courage and strength from here.
"I figured it out, there is no need to postpone the wedding, let's go ahead as usual, there is time." The bride said, "She has no ability to break free from the shackles of her family. She is a silk flower, unable to live independently, and she accepts her fate.
After the wedding was held, she and Yao Xi were only a couple in name, she just couldn't be with her lover properly.
Yao Xi absent-mindedly nodded his head. There was not much joy on his face. Seeing Yao Xi's distraught appearance through the makeup mirror, the bride couldn't help but said, "Why are your eyes so red? Are you still looking like this? Is your ex-girlfriend here?"
Yao Xi shook his head, he stood up and tried to calm himself down, "Just figure it out, it's just a marriage anyway, you can do whatever you want after marriage, and you don't have to worry about me."
The bride nodded.
In the garden of the wedding scene? Bai Luo and Qin Chaoci walked together. This time at the banquet? Qin Chaoci took a very close look at Bai Luo, guarding him every inch of the way. on the belt?
"Do you think Yao Xi will? Don't you think I'm mocking him when Yao Xi comes to his senses?" Bai Luo asked Qin Chao to resign.
In fact, congratulations on Yao Xi's happy wedding, Bai Luo really didn't think so much when the couple were in love, he was just simply saying congratulations.
But after he finished speaking, he also felt that it was inappropriate, because Yao Xi didn't marry the person he liked at all. The words of conjugal love? It's also ironic and heart-wrenching.
Qin Chaoci shook his head and said, "I don't know? He definitely doesn't think you're mocking him. I just think you're really good to him."
In fact, when Qin Chaoci saw Yao Xi excitedly holding Bai Luo's hand just now, Qin Chaoci felt a little bit of a taste in his heart. Yao Xi and Bai Luo have been close friends since junior high school, and he occupied Qin Chaoci's favorite place. Bai Luo's youth who participated but failed to participate.
But Qin Chaoci also knows? The relationship between Yao Xi and Bai Luo is pure friendship, and there is no other intention, otherwise Qin Chaoci would not? Allow them to be friends for so many years.
"He used to be really pitiful." Bai Luo stopped walking, as if caught in some kind of memory.
Yao Xi had a bad time when he was admitted back to the Yao family. Yao's father didn't value him, and Yao's mother didn't like him because of his status as an illegitimate child. Although no one abused Yao Xi physically, he often didn't have enough to eat, and his life was not as good as those of ordinary children.
After Bai Luo knew about it, he felt sorry for him, and often took him back to his home for dinner. Later, Yao's father found out that Yao Xi and Bai Luo had a good relationship, and then he took a little care of him, at least let Yao Xi have a good relationship with him. Got a room of my own.
"And he is quite pitiful now." Bai Luo really felt that Yao Xi was also pitiful now, although all this was his own choice and he had to suffer on his own.
"He betrayed friendship, and even regarded love and marriage as bargaining chips for profit." Bai Luo sighed, "What good will it be for him to be rich even in the future? No friendship, no love, no kinship. This kind of life is too Painful."
Qin Chaoci lowered his head and looked at Bai Luo earnestly. Bai Luo felt a little uncomfortable. He lowered his head and thought about what he said. Did Qin Chaoci think he was too hypocritical?
Perhaps for some people, affection can be discarded, but no matter what other people think, in Bai Luo's heart, no matter whether it is family, love or friendship, they are an indispensable part.
"Do you think my thoughts are childish and funny?" Bai Luo pursed his lips, "I know? You successful people have always thought that those who achieve great things don't care about small things. Since you want to be successful, you don't need to care about these..."
Bai Luo's words? In the middle of speaking, Qin Chaoci gently pinched his chin, and his rough fingertips stroked the soft lower lip.
"Bai Luo, has anyone ever said that your heart is so soft?" Qin Chao resigned.
Bai Luo looked grumpy and not to be trifled with, but his heart was softer than anyone else's. Even though he was the one who suffered the betrayal, he still said that Yao Xi was pitiful, and he was even willing to come to his wedding.And all this tolerance stems from their ten-year friendship.
At this moment, Qin Chaoci was inevitably jealous of Yao Xi, if one day, Bai Luo was also so soft-hearted towards him, it would be great.
Bai Luo blushed immediately, and stammered, "No...no."
Is he soft hearted?Bai Luo thought about it for a while, and felt that there was no such thing.
Qin Chaoci smiled, his smile was like a winter plum blossom, Bai Luo was taken aback for a moment, and then he also laughed foolishly.
Bai Luo didn't go to see the wedding ceremony. Qin Chaoci accompanied him to wander around the other places of the wedding venue. They were discussing Yao Xi's wedding.
Although everyone knows that this is just a family marriage, the bride and groom have no feelings for each other, but this is too obvious.
At the wedding ceremony, not only was there no confession link, but the parents of both parties came to the stage to give speeches, and they just said a few words and then ended in a hurry.
Listening to their discussion, Bai Luo sighed silently in his heart. From now on, he must marry the one he loves, and marry the one he doesn't like, even for one day? He will feel extremely painful.
Can Bai Luo and Qin Chaoci leave after the ceremony? But Bai Luo never said that he wanted to leave. Qin Chaoci knew? He was still thinking about Yao Xi's words in his heart, so he waited indulgently with him.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Yao Xi to come in a hurry. After seeing Bai Luo's figure, he breathed a sigh of relief. He walked up to Bai Luo, looked at Qin Chaoci, hesitated for a few seconds, and asked: "Lolo, can I have a few words with you alone?"
Bai Luo turned his head and glanced at Qin Chaoci. Qin Chaoci's expression turned cold, but he didn't say anything, and walked away silently.
Yao Xi took Bai Luo to a hidden outdoor balcony in the banquet hall. Although it was winter, the sun's rays were scorching hot today, baking on people's body? It was very warm and comfortable.
The two each occupied a corner of the balcony, and neither of them spoke? Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
After being silent for a while, Yao Xi said slowly, "Luo Luo, I'm sorry."
I'm sorry Yao Xi has said it too many times, and Bai Luo has listened to it too many times on WeChat? Text messages? Phone calls? But no amount of apologies can save Yao Xi from hurting Bai Luo.
Bai Luo didn't speak? He just looked at the scenery outside the balcony.
Yao Xi closed his eyes, he didn't hear the answer he wanted, he thought that the wedding that Bai Luo was willing to attend was to forgive him, but he didn't expect it was just his wishful thinking.
Bai Luo knew what Yao Xi meant, but he wouldn't forgive him, because Bai Luo was not qualified to forgive Yao Xi for himself seven years later.
He didn't empathize with him, but he knew that he would be in pain seven years later, because now he knew that Yao Xi had betrayed him, not to mention Bai Luo, who had been with him for a longer time.
The longer the time, the deeper the relationship, and the deeper and more painful the stabbing knife from the back.
"If it's just an apology, I think you should know my answer." Bai Luo said, "Is there nothing else to say? I'll go first."
"Yao Xi, I wish you the last blessing. I hope this is really the life you want." Bai Luo said.
Being hurt by a friend is painful, but it's not a solution to let the wound not heal and let it rot? Bai Luo tried his best to cut himself off from the past. He had a sad past.
But he will gradually get better, the company will be regained, and his career will be improved. People must look forward, and the road must go forward.
This is why Bai Luo took the initiative to show up at Yao Xi's wedding. He didn't want the past to hold him back and drag him down.
Bai Luo's last words? It was like a sharp arrow piercing Yao Xi's heart fiercely. The dazzling sun's rays shot down and shone in front of his eyes, making him confused.
He lost his most sincere friend and married a wife who didn't love him at all. He used these in exchange for the treatment in front of the company, but every time he returned to the Yao family mansion? His elder brother always reminded him of the illegitimate child. identity.
If...if he could be given another chance? and he made? a different choice, what would be the result?
He didn't betray Bai Luo, Bai Luo might have regained the Bai Group, although he lost his inheritance rights under the control of his elder brother, but Bai Luo wouldn't? Watching him helplessly like this...
Yao Xi didn't dare to think about it anymore, his heart was beating like a drum, and he opened his bow without turning back. He told himself desperately that there should be no regrets, and once he had them, he would live in pain and regret forever.
Yao Xi's face was pale, like a walking corpse, and he nodded, "I'm very satisfied with this kind of life, this is what I want." It was difficult for him to say this, and he didn't know whether to say it to Bai Luo or not. Listen to yourself.
"It's good if you're satisfied." Bai Luo nodded? Nod? Up to now, he and Yao Xi have nothing else to say. You can say more, this friendship has come to an end forever in Bai Luo's heart.
Seeing that Bai Luo was about to leave, Yao Xi subconsciously said, "Wait a minute, Luo Luo."
Did Yao Xi not forget that he was in the garden just now? When he saw Bai Luo, the face of Qin Chaoci beside him was full of possessiveness and the intimate gesture between them.
Thinking back to this point, a pain appeared on Yao Xi's face. He was the one who was sorry for Bai Luo.
The time point when Bai Luo and Qin Chaoci got together? The time point when Bai Luo failed in the company's internal struggle? It's so similar, why don't you understand it?
If it wasn't for him, Bai Luo wouldn't? Fail, and wouldn't? Be taken advantage of by Qin Chaoci and humiliated by others.
"Qin Chaoci...he, does he treat you well?" Yao Xi had also heard the rumors from outsiders. Although seeing Qin Chaoci and Bai Luo getting along today was not like what others said, Yao Xi still Conscience.
"Yao Xi, you are the least qualified to ask this question?!" Bai Luo finally got angry.
Others don't understand the twists and turns, Yao Xi? Don't you understand?If it wasn't because of him, would Bai Luo have resigned from signing the nurturing agreement with Qin Chao?
Although Qin Chaoci was very kind to Bai Luo, but every point counts for one point, Yao Xi has no right to ask Bai Luo at all!
"I'm sorry." Yao Xi tugged at his hair in pain, "I have no other meaning, I just want to tell you, Luo Luo, Qin Chaoci is not a good person, even if he treats you very well now, no one will say Not allowed in the future..."
Yao Xi's words were repeated on Bai Luo's angry point? Jumping up and down, Bai Luo glared at him and said, "Maybe he will stab me in the future?"
"You said that Qin Chaoci is not a good person, but he helped me and slowly took the Bai Group back from Jiang Chengyun's hands. He is a gentleman, and he doesn't say he does things in an aboveboard manner, but at least he won't? Stab someone in the back. thing!"
Bai Luo was very angry, why did Yao Xi criticize Qin Chaoci?
Yao Xi was rendered speechless by Bai Luo's words, and said anxiously: "But I think he has been coveting you for a long time, and he just seized this opportunity..."
Yao Xi’s words? Didn’t finish, Qin Chaoci opened the curtain of the window, and walked in like no one was there. Yao Xi seemed to be choked by someone, and the remaining half of the sentence was stuck in his throat, and he swallowed it again .
"Your elder brother is looking for you." Qin Chaoci said to Yao Xi.
Yao Xi didn't know? Qin Chaoci heard a lot, but his eyes were dark, his temperament was cold, and there seemed to be a chill in his speech, which made Yao Xi shiver uncontrollably.
After Yao Xi left, Bai Luo memorized what he hadn't finished saying, but didn't intend to ask any more.
Qin Chaoci has coveted himself for a long time?Bai Luo doesn't know? Should he believe Yao Xi's words? But right now he doesn't want to think about these things anymore.
While Qin Chaoci was calm on the surface, but actually his heart was beating faster. He didn't know? When did Yao Xi discover his feelings for Bai Luo, but just a little bit? Bai Luo already knew?!
If Bai Luo really found out, Qin Chaoci would have the heart to kill Yao Xi!
After returning from Yao Xi's wedding banquet, Qin Chaoci was nervous for several days? He was afraid that Bai Luo would not be able to figure out Yao Xi's words? But Bai Luo seemed to have forgotten the unfinished sentence? Bring it up again, get along with Qin Chaoci as usual.
Qin Chaoci heaved a sigh of relief, but he was also a little disappointed. He was in a complicated mood. He was afraid of letting Bai Luo know, but he couldn't help but wonder what kind of reaction Bai Luo would have if he knew that he had loved him for so many years. .
There is always a glimmer of hope in his heart, hoping that one day? Bai Luo will also? Like himself like he likes him.
As the New Year approaches, the imperial capital snows one after another, and outside is a vast expanse of white space. Bai Luo used to stay at home, but now he doesn't like to go out even more. He stays at home every day, warm The toasty floor heating keeps the home warm and dry.
The floor was so hot that sometimes Bai Luo didn't bother to wear slippers, so he just stepped on the floor in fluffy floor socks, nestled in the corner of the balcony, and read books all day long in the bright sunlight.
It wasn't until Yu Shun told him that he wanted him to record a few videos of New Year greetings in advance for posting during the New Year that Bai Luo realized that the Chinese New Year was coming soon.
The merchants outside have hung up the prosperous red lanterns. As the New Year is approaching, the New Year’s goods in the supermarkets are also put on the shelves early. The Spring Festival is the most important festival for Chinese people. Countless people start early Looking forward to the New Year, prepare for it in advance.
Bai Luo went out for a while, only to find that there are fewer cars and people on the busy street on weekdays, and many people have returned to their hometowns for the New Year.
The Spring Festival is supposed to be a family reunion. Bai Luo is at home? Watching the TV, looking at the kitchen? Aunt Chen, who is still busy, sniffs.
Yu Shun and other colleagues in the studio have already left the imperial capital to go home for the New Year. After tomorrow, Aunt Chen will also go home for the New Year.
But where is my home?Bai Luo was a little "sad", and didn't want Aunt Chen to find him sad, so he lay on the sofa alone and wiped away his tears by himself while watching a heart-wrenching TV series.
Living here in Qin Chaoci was so comfortable that Bai Luo almost forgot that this was not his home, he also had a house, but that house was so cold that no one lived in it for a long time.
Going home to celebrate the New Year, Qin Chaoci also wants to go back to the Qin family's old house to celebrate the New Year. He has a grandfather and parents.
Bai Luo never thought of going back to a home with Jiang Chengyun and Jiang Chengzhou? Although he was very reluctant to celebrate the New Year, this year he had to accept the reality that he had to spend the New Year alone.
On the twenty-ninth of the new year, Bai Luo drank the spare rib soup stewed by Aunt Chen, and waited for Qin Chaoci to come home from work. Tonight, Aunt Chen will officially leave work. Immediately? In this room? Only Bai Luo and Qin Chao resigned from two people.
Bai Luo didn't want to be alone, so he desperately hoped that Qin Chaoci could return home before Aunt Chen left.
Fortunately, God was good to Bai Luo. His wish was heard. When Aunt Chen dragged the suitcase to the entrance, the door of the house was opened, and Qin Chaoci walked in wearing a coat. .
Seeing that Aunt Chen was about to leave, Qin Chao asked the driver not to drive the car into the garage, and sent Aunt Chen to the high-speed railway station. He also wrapped a big thick red envelope for Aunt Chen. Aunt Chen was so happy Eyebrows widened, Bai Luo stood not far away and smiled foolishly.
"What are you laughing at?" Seeing Bai Luo's smiling face when he got home, Qin Chaoci's mood improved, and he changed his shoes and went to him to wipe his soft hair.
Bai Luo shook his head, trotted into the kitchen and took a bowl of spare rib soup for Qin Chaoci, "Drink it while it's hot, Aunt Chen's stewed soup is really delicious, but unfortunately it won't be available until half a month later."
He was still quite reluctant, but Aunt Chen had been living in Qin's house to take care of Qin Chaoci and Bai Luo's daily life, how many more days would she be released after the Chinese New Year? It was also appropriate for her to be reunited with her family.
Qin Chaoci lowered his head and took a sip of the soup. Bai Luo looked at him, thought for a long time, and then said, "Tomorrow? It's New Year's Eve. You don't have to go to work in the company, do you?"
The man drank the soup in the bowl in one gulp, nodded and nodded. In fact, he didn't know how to go back so late in previous years. He returned to the Qin family's old house around the twentieth, seven or eight. This time, he was afraid of Bai Luo. I'm not used to it, so I stayed in the company for a few more days.
Bai Luo let out a sigh of disappointment. In fact, he also knew? Qin Chao's resignation tomorrow? Definitely going back to the Qin family's old house, but he still didn't give up and asked.
In the past few days, Bai Luo has never asked about Qin Chaoci's arrangements for the Spring Festival. He knows? He has an ostrich mentality. a little?.
"A few days after your new year? Don't you have any work arrangements?" Qin Chaoci asked, wiping his mouth.
Bai Luo shook his head and said, "The work has been done in advance, and Yu Shun has also returned home for the New Year. He will not return to Beijing until the tenth or fifth day of the first lunar month."
It means that when Shun returns to Beijing, "Man Jiuxiao" is about to start? At that time, Bai Luo will join the filming team.
Qin Chao said: "That's just right. Tomorrow? Morning? Noon, when you wake up, we'll go back to the old house for lunch."
Bai Luo nodded subconsciously, and when he realized the meaning of Qin Chao's speech, he was surprised and said, "Me, me? Shall I go back with you to celebrate the New Year?"
Qin Chaoci frowned when he saw Bai Luo's reaction, "You don't want to go?"
Bai Luo shook his head and nodded again. In fact, he also thought about Qin Chao's resignation? No? Take him back for the New Year, but he thought about it
