rumor

At noon on the first day of the new year, Xi's family feast.

Because they will be married soon, the Meng family also came.

Seating is particular, the elders sit on one side, and the younger ones sit on the other side.As soon as she entered the table, Meng Lan glanced at Xi Yufeng several times, but couldn't hold back, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with you, you look so bad?"

Xi Yufeng seemed to be distracted, he was startled when he heard this, and said, "It's nothing."

It's just that I got off the wine table last night and ate food that was not cooked through, and I had a stomachache all night.

Meng Lan looked at him for a while, and saw that his lips were frighteningly white. He was a serious and taciturn person, and now he was even less energetic. She turned her head and called for the waiter.

When the waiter came to him, Meng Lan commanded: "Remove this wine and give him a glass of warm water."

Xi Yufeng said softly, "No need."

Meng Lan couldn't help but picked up the wine glass in front of him and handed it to the waiter, telling the waiter, "I want warm water that is just drinkable at 50 degrees Celsius, not too hot or too cold."

The waiter responded, turned and left the box.

It was originally a small episode, but it was noticed by those who cared and made use of it.

"I see that the two children are in a good relationship." Xiao Yin said with a fake smile, "Why bother with those prenuptial agreements that draw a clear line, it hurts the relationship."

After all, it was a family banquet, and it would be inappropriate without a hostess, so Xiao Yin was able to sit next to Xi Chengli.It's just that she was stimulated some time ago. Her own son was imprisoned for kidnapping and has not been released yet. She looked extremely haggard and spoke sullenly.

Everyone in the room knew about the marriage agreement, but it was just a formality that had to be done. It was better to be friendly and courteous than to pretend to be ingratiating, so the hypocrisy was punctured face to face, and the faces of the elders immediately fell.

Xi Chengli hurriedly smoothed things over: "How can anyone get married without signing a prenuptial agreement now? When someone's precious daughter marries into our Xi's family, it should be guaranteed."

As soon as these words came out, Meng's father and Meng's mother's faces turned pale.

Xiao Yin still smiled: "Guarantee? If you really want to give others guarantee, why don't you ask your good son whether he likes women or not—"

Before she could finish speaking, Xi Chengli beckoned to his assistant: "Madam is not feeling well today, please help her go back to rest."

Xiao Yin was almost forcibly dragged away.

Before leaving, he pointed at Xi Yufeng and cursed at him, such as "a pervert who likes men" and "a motherless little beast". Hearing this, Xi Chengli became furious and asked her if she was cursing himself as an old beast.

The scene was extremely ugly for a while, but fortunately there were not many people present, and the Meng family's parents were calm. Xi Chengli turned around and brought up the topic of next year's cooperation, even if it was fooled.

On the way, Xi and Feng were called out by Xi Chengli to talk, and Mother Meng took Meng Lan's hand and asked, "You really don't like Xiaofeng?"

Meng Lan was startled for a moment, then smiled: "Of course, he is such a boring person, what do I like about him?"

Meng's mother was still worried: "I'm afraid that this marriage will really come true, and love will develop over time..."

"Love is so easy?" Meng Lan didn't care, "You see, I have made so many boyfriends, which one is hard to part with in the end?"

Mother Meng sighed: "I don't even know whether it's right or wrong to agree to your marriage with Xiaofeng."

"It must be right. You also know that I am a non-marriage advocate. Since I have chosen to marry in person, why don't I find someone who is beneficial to my family?"

"Besides, he's already separated from the one raised outside." Meng Lan said and looked towards the door, where Xi Yufeng was pushing open the door and walking in, "I want both the face and the inside."

After a meal, the two families decided on a specific wedding date.

Meng Lan was afraid that it would not look good in a dress in the cold weather, so she said that she would wait for spring, so the wedding date was set on the sixth day of March, April in the Gregorian calendar, a good time for everything to recover.

The date was finalized, and various preparations were also put on the agenda.

On the third day of the new year, most shopping malls have resumed normal operations.At 02:30 in the afternoon, Xi Yufeng drove to a shopping mall under the reminder of his assistant.

At the home banquet last night, Meng Lan asked for a custom-made dress at a shop here. Come today to choose the style and measure the size.

During the Spring Festival, the shopping mall is very lively, with lanterns hanging at the door downstairs, colorful balloons flying in the air, and the theater upstairs is even more crowded, with couples holding popcorn and drinks everywhere.

Meng Lan changed into a dress and came out, and saw Xi Yufeng standing in the corridor outside the store, with one arm propped on the glass guardrail, and an unlit cigarette in the other hand, sideways, looking up.

There is a kind of melancholy calm in the eyes, as if drifting away from the excitement.

Meng Lan walked over and followed his gaze: "Why, want to watch a movie?"

Xi Yufeng lowered his head slightly, and withdrew his gaze: "No."

Men's dresses are nothing more than those fixed styles, and within 5 minutes of entering the store, Xi Yufeng has chosen them.

So the rest of the time was left for Meng Lan to try on the dresses. She first picked out a fluffy white gauze dress, walked around in front of Xi Yufeng, and asked how he was doing.

Xi Yufeng only thought that Meng Lan loved beauty, and he wanted to amaze everyone, so he took a look and said, "It's pretty good."

Meng Lan was very interested, and soon changed into a fishtail skirt that showed her figure.

This time, Xi Yufeng didn't make room, so he answered the phone and said he had to leave first.

Holding the corner of her skirt, Meng Lan couldn't quite smile, so she nodded her head reluctantly and said, "Then go do your work, I'll choose slowly."

Watching the man's back leave, Meng Lan suddenly felt bored.She turned back and saw the tea brought by the clerk. Just about to sit down and rest for a while, she heard footsteps behind her.

Xi Yufeng left and returned, Meng Lan's eyes lit up instantly, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.

But Xi Yufeng asked her: "Is the bottle of wine that I gave you last time still there?"

With a stiff smile on her face, Meng Lan asked, "What?"

"On Christmas Eve, in Jinyuan, the bottle of wine you want to leave from me."

"Oh, that...wasn't it my birthday present?"

"I made up other gifts for you later. If the bottle of wine is still there, please return it to me."

Seeing that Meng Lan remained silent for a long time, and seemed to hesitate, Xi Yufeng added: "Or if I buy it from you, you can set a price."

At this moment, Jiang Ruo, who was called by Tang Jianian on the phone, was wandering aimlessly in the shopping mall because he arrived half an hour earlier.

So when he walked around this wedding dress shop and saw a woman in a wedding dress pouring tea on the man in front of her, Jiang Ruo was startled like the passers-by around her.

When the identities of the two parties were recognized, especially the face that no one could forget Xi Yufeng, Jiang Ruo's heart beat wildly, and he turned around and ran away in a panic.

Hiding in the corner of the stairwell, Jiang Ruo poked out half of his head slowly, making sure no one noticed him, and then patted his chest and let out a breath.

Now that we're all here, let's just go down the stairs.

Inexplicably recalling what my colleague and Feng said that day, he was going to a place where he could not be seen, Jiang Ruo thought that Fengcheng is really small, so he can be met like this.

Going downstairs, he pulled up the mask. When Jiang Ruo looked up, he found that the two were no longer in the corridor, leaving only the signboard of the wedding dress design studio shining alone.

I couldn't help laughing at myself, thinking that no matter how small Fengcheng is, the probability of a former lover meeting the benefactor and his fiancée to try on the wedding dress is small?

When meeting Tang Jianian, Jiang Ruo told her about Fengcheng's small feelings and got 100% approval.

"That's right, I ran into Su Yi at the crew's wine table a few years ago." Tang Jianian said, "The crew he was staying at was also having a dinner party, and the two sides toasted each other. Do you think it's embarrassing?"

Jiang Ruo didn't tell Tang Jianian that the rich woman Su Yi cheated on was Xi Yufeng's fiancée, for fear of ruining the little girl's three views.Now I just feel that this decision is extremely wise, otherwise he would also be a part of the current embarrassment.

After agreeing, Jiang Ruo asked: "Then you and him..."

"Just like strangers, let's pretend we don't know each other." Tang Jianian answered, "I can't help but see people in the same circle. But..."

After speaking, Tang Jianian leaned over and whispered gossipingly, "I heard that rich woman dumped her."

Jiang Ruo still remembered the crooked picture of Meng Lan and Su Yi kissing, and was stunned: "Huh?"

"Those rich men and young ladies, how can they have any strengths?" Tang Jianian was quite open-minded, "I finally figured it out, I just have to work hard to climb up and stand in a position that overlooks all living beings, otherwise my body and emotions will always be destroyed." There is one thing to be played with."

Jiang Ruo didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "That's what you said, your top actors are being played with by others, don't us waist actors only have to be trampled under your feet?"

"So work hard, if you fall behind, you will be beaten!"

It can be seen that Tang Jianian's mentality is much more mature than before after experiencing a broken relationship.

This time I asked Jiang Ruo to have dinner together to thank him for his previous "information".

After all, if you use your brain a little bit, you will know that in Jiang Ruo's position, the safest way to do it is to pretend not to see it and say nothing.But Jiang Ruo took the risk and told her that he really regarded her as a friend.

Tang Jianian also had a forthright and forthright personality, and immediately patted her chest and said loyally: "In the future, if there is anything I, Tang Jianian, can help with, I will definitely die!"

Jiang Ruo made me laugh: "Could your last drama be an ancient costume? A heroine who bravely ventures into the rivers and lakes?"

"how do you know?!"

After dinner, Tang Jianian took Jiang Ruo to the beauty salon to have her face done.

Jiang Ruo didn't want to go, but he really didn't want to go shopping with Tang Jianian, for fear of another shocking encounter.After thinking about it, it is impossible for someone to enter a place like a beauty parlor in this lifetime.

When he lay down, let the beautician pat and knead his face, with soothing music playing in his ears, and the tranquil smell of aromatherapy lingering in his nose, Jiang Ruo closed his eyes, as if he could understand the reason why female stars always go here .

However, it is impossible for female stars to come here just to relax.

Tang Jianian was lying on the bed next to him, talking non-stop about medical and aesthetic items such as ultrasonic scalpel and Thermage, advising him to fight aging as soon as possible.

Jiang Ruo didn't take it seriously, thinking that male actors don't pay much attention to actors, so Tang Jianian gave him an example: "You see that the movie "Skins" chose you as the leading actor, because you are young and good-looking?"

"Skin" is the literary film with fringe themes that Jiang Ruo auditioned years ago.According to Zheng Yiting, getting this role is all due to his own ability, no one is behind the scenes.

Jiang Ruo believed this, and he said "yes": "Yes. But I was born like this, if I move somewhere, it will destroy the harmony."

Tang Jianian was caught by his Versailles: "You are enough. Before "Ying Fei" was broadcast, there were many bullet screens saying that the second male lead is more beautiful than the female lead. Be careful, I will assassinate you because of jealousy."

Jiang Ruoxiao: "Someone in the entertainment industry is fighting for a position, tearing up the inner feelings."

It was evening when we came out of the mall.

Tang Jianian drove here by herself. The little girl just got her driver's license and she was very fresh, so she insisted on sending Jiang Ruo back.The kindness was hard to come by, Jiang Ruo asked her to drive her to the main road in the old city, lest she would drive the car into the alley and not be able to turn around.

Get out of the car and go to the driver's seat to thank Tang Jianian for taking him home. Tang Jianian glanced behind him and said, "You and Xi... who is it, really separated?"

Jiang Ruo found that everyone was trying to avoid mentioning Xi Yufeng's name in front of him, thinking that as long as he didn't mention it, he wouldn't be sad.

He went along with the flow and put on a look that wasn't sad at all: "Well, he's getting married soon, why don't you keep it for the New Year?"

Tang Jianian took out his mobile phone, pushed a link on his Wechat saying "Personal testing is useful", and clicked on it - "How to Get Out of the Shadow of Broken Love Quickly".

Jiang Ruo looked at it and laughed: "I have never been in love, so there is no shadow."

Tang Jianian stared at him for a while, and the old god sighed: "I hope it's not a fake."

There is still a distance from the intersection to downstairs.

Walking to the open space in front of the corner of the alley, Jiang Ruo stopped involuntarily and turned his head to look.

A black SUV was parked by the low wall, but it was not the familiar one, nor would a slender man in white clothes and black pants get out of the car and light a cigarette with his back against the car door. one person.

Seat and wind.

Jiang Ruo said silently in his heart, Xi and Feng.

He thought, if he recites it a few more times, he will always be desensitized and painless.

One day, Jiang Ruo can be calm when meeting Xi Yufeng, and even greet him calmly, calling him "Mr. Xi".

Instead of turning around and running like a defeated soldier, and then hiding in a corner, clutching his aching heart, complaining about how the world is so small.

It's just that at the moment, he can't do it yet.

The mobile phone in his pocket vibrated suddenly, and when he took it out, seeing the name on the screen, Jiang Ruo's hands trembled suddenly, and his breathing stopped.

It was a WeChat message from the person he noted as "wind", just one line——

You have left something behind.

The author says:

Xiao Xi: You left me behind
