The starless and moonless night was silent, and the sky was dyed with a thin circle of twilight, which contrasted with the bright lights on the edge of the third ring and echoed each other.The party was over, the villa gradually became deserted, and everyone left one after another. Xing Yuan, as the host, went to the door to see everyone off.

Qiao Yan really didn't intend to take Zhou Xiyun on a ride without giving him any favors.

Jiang Jiang and the others came, and the three of them waited at the door together, waiting for the driver to come over.

Zhou Xiyun stayed at the back, he had other things to deal with, so he came out 10 minutes late.

The friend from the north also appeared along with him, and there were other faces behind him, all of whom Qiao Yan didn't know.They gathered in one place, some of them were still smoking and talking and laughing. It seemed that they had to go to other places to catch up with the show, and they were not going to go home.

That's right, Xing Yuan is a hedonist, so it's impossible to just hold such a party for his birthday, and then he must bring those who have a better relationship to get together.

It was only early morning, and the wanton nightlife had just begun, so it was still early.

Xing Yuan walked to Zhou Xiyun's side and said something in a low voice.

He probably wanted Zhou Xiyun to go too. After all, everyone had to attend, and she couldn't be absent.

Zhou Xiyun turned back to look at his friend, then turned towards this direction, and then said something to Xing Yuan.

Xing Yuan smiled and gestured.

Qiao Yan stood on the side of the road, glanced at Zhou Xiyun out of the corner of his eye, clutched the car keys tightly in his hands, and kept rubbing them, his restlessness became more and more intense.

They were far away and couldn't hear the content of the conversation over there, but judging from the interaction between the two, Zhou Xiyun should have given Xing Yuan a relatively satisfactory answer, maybe he agreed, otherwise he would not be so happy.

After a while, Zhou Xiyun was held by a young girl, holding her arm.The young girl is very sunny and fashionable, she is the younger sister of my friend from the north.

At the poker table before, this girl appeared several times, and once served Qiao Yan with water. She had a cheerful and lively personality and was very likable.Qiao Yan had an impression of her, and after seeing this scene, she let go of her hand and turned her face away.

Zhou Xiyun is really popular, she never lacks attention wherever she goes, men love to get close to her, and women also like to get close to her.

I don't know what kind of friendship the young girl has with Zhou Xiyun. It's a pure incidental friendship. Is it just because of friends in the north, or is it more than that?

Qiao Yan didn't understand anything, and he was used to it.Goddess Zhou is popular and charming, and there is a long line of suitors, and there is no shortage of such little fans.

She stared down at the gray road, rubbing the ground with her toes

The leaves on the tree, and soon took out the phone to check the time.

The substitute driver arrived here 10 minutes later, Qiao Yan sat in the co-pilot, and Jiang Jiang and the others sat in the back row.

After the car started, Qiao Yan observed the scene outside from the rearview mirror, took a last look at Zhou Xiyun, and walked away after a while, until he turned into another street.

It was all at the crossroads, Jiang Jiang suddenly asked: "Xiyun won't go back tonight?" Qiao Yan replied dully: "I don't know."

Another partner said: "I should have called her just now, I forgot." Qiao Yan said: "It's okay."

Jiang Jiang continued: "That's right, she doesn't have to go home either."

It's normal for adults to stay outside at night, let alone this kind of occasion.

The speaker is unintentional, and what he is telling is the facts, but the listener is intentional, and each of them has their own opinions on the meaning.

Qiao Yan involuntarily pulled the seat belt and pursed her lips.

Since he wasn't going back, Zhou Xiyun asked if he could go all the way in the backyard...

This guy is being unreasonable again, obviously he pretended to be weird and didn't agree, he didn't want Zhou Xiyun to ride on the same road, but now it's wrong, it's very uncomfortable.

Full of duplicity, taking what has been said as air.

It was already one o'clock in the morning when we arrived at Xijing compound, very late.

Qiao Yan sent the two partners to the door of the house, and then asked the driver to go back to the small villa on Qinghe Street, so as not to disturb Xu Ziqing and grandma's rest.

At this point in time, the two elders have already fallen asleep soundly, now that they go in, they might be woken up like a door-to-door report, and now they return to this place

It's not convenient to go to the store tomorrow morning.

Going back and forth, detours and time-consuming, Qiao Yan only felt that he was a fool, making such a big circle for nothing was asking for trouble.

In the second half of the night, Qinghe Street was quiet, and the small villa was empty.

After tidying up, washing up, and lying on the bed, Qiao Yan checked Moments for a while before resting.

The circle of friends was swiped by Xing Yuan's birthday party dynamics, and most of the invited friends sent related shares, all congratulating Xing Yuan.

Xing Yuan himself also sent a message, to the effect that he thanked everyone for their support, and attached a picture of the team, with the subtext that he would not sleep tonight and had to go for a drive.

Qiao Yan scrolled down from top to bottom, -- after checking all the updates, he didn't find Zhou Xiyun's WeChat account.The other party only gives gifts, not tweets, and they don't have that habit.

Qiao Yan hesitated for a moment, but still gave Xing Yuan a thumbs up.

Next, as long as a mutual friend shows up, she will also receive a notification here, and she will not miss any of them.

It's a pity that Zhou Xiyun disappeared. He didn't like or reply for a long time. Maybe he didn't check his phone and was busy with other things.

Qiao Yan lay on his side, put his phone next to the pillow, and looked uneasily outside the curtains.

The night is gloomy and hazy, a large area of ​​darkness covers and blocks things in the distance, and the loneliness surges thickly, like a wave that does not calm for a moment, churning layer by layer.

Thoughts are chaotic, stirring people's sensitive points.

Qiao Yan didn't know when he closed his eyes and fell into a drowsy sleep.

There is no holiday the next day, I have to work, and I get to the store in the morning.

A new day begins with an old one, and it is no different from the previous day, with the same tasks as before.

Strangely enough, the two bosses are not in a good state today. Rong Yin's complexion is a little bad, and he is obviously troubled by the problem earlier, and he hasn't fully come out yet. Light blue and black, yawning all morning.

Qiao Yan received a lot of news about Xing Yuan's circle of friends on WeChat. There were dozens of messages as soon as he opened his eyes in the morning, and one came out every once in a while today.

Xing Yuan replied to his friend's wishes at [-], [-], and [-] in the morning, disappeared at [-]:[-], went online again around [-]:[-], and stopped eating after [-]:[-], saying that he had gone to catch up on sleep.He has severe mobile phone dependence and is extremely active. He responds to messages intermittently at night, as if he bought a house on WeChat to live in.

By coincidence, Qiao Yan checked all the times when Xing Yuan replied to the message, and confirmed that he probably didn't have the chance to be alone with anyone last night, so he was a little relieved.

It's not that I deliberately want to spy on other people's lives, but I just don't feel at ease.

Xing Yuan is actually quite unreliable, always doing some unimaginable embarrassing things, I'm afraid he will make a big mistake this time... Fortunately, no.This time it was quite satisfactory, not too much.

In the second half of the day, Qiao Yan's blood recovered a little, and after a nap at noon, he was motivated later on.

In the afternoon, I needed to go out to deliver an order for flowers. Qiao Yan took the initiative to take over the job, first went to a nearby game studio, and then stopped by Yifeng Group to deliver two takeaway orders.

The takeaway is not ordered by the people in the venture capital department, but by other departments.Qiao Yan was unable to meet Zhou Xiyun, but he heard an employee talk about the meeting, and it seemed that many department heads had attended.

The employee talked about a certain Zhou team leader, talking about the venture capital department, in short, it was some professional content that Qiao Yan couldn't understand, which was more complicated than the heavenly book.

Zhou Xiyun came to work very early, and he was not late, and even clocked in early.

The eldest lady is conscientious, even if she stayed up late the night before to attend a friend's party, she will not delay her work because of this. After all, she still has a project in hand that has not been completed, so she cannot be absent casually.

Inexplicably, the irritability disappeared.Disappeared, not even dregs left.

In the evening, Qiao Yan took over Rong Yin's position, allowing Rong Yin to go home earlier to rest and take care of the store by himself.

Kafa still closes at ten o'clock, the boss can leave first, and the rest of the cleaning work is left to the employees.Qiao Yan slipped away early, drove away before closing time, left the shop to Yangyang and the others, drove the broken Volkswagen into the Xijing compound without calling, and told Xu Ladies, they had a shock.

Home, if you want to go back, you don't have to be so formal.

I still feel bad for not entering the door yesterday, something is always missing in my heart, and I have to make up for it tonight.For the first time ever, Qiao Yan acted like a good boy, bought a lot of food to take with her, and also sent a copy to the Zhou family opposite.

The courtyard is brightly lit tonight, and there is more fireworks.

Yifeng Group worked overtime, and the meeting delayed the working hours. It was almost 09:30 when things were finished.

Zhou Xiyun returned home later than usual, dragging his body exhausted.From a distance, she saw the bright hall here, and when she got closer, she heard a faint conversation at home, as if someone had come to visit.

Park the car smoothly outside the house, open the door, go down, and lock it.Zhou Xiyun walked in carrying the bag, and immediately saw the person on the sofa.

Qiao Yan sat there with a smile, holding a large bucket of Oden in his hand, his white and smooth feet were bare, and his legs were folded. The whole person should not be too comfortable, as if he was at home, and he did not treat himself as an outsider at all.She was chatting with Zhou Huiwen, and she didn't know what she just said, which made Zhou Huiwen smile.

Zhou Xiyun stood at the door, suddenly feeling like he had gone to the wrong house.

Zhou Huiwen found Zhou Xiyun, "Hey, I just said that, so I'm back now."

Qiao Yan turned around and looked straight at the door.

Zhou Xiyun collected his mind, but was not too surprised by someone's appearance, and asked his mother, "What did you say?"

Zhou Huiwen didn't answer, but said: "Sit with Qiao Qiao for a while, and I'll make you a hot meal."

Zhou Xiyun said, "No need, I will do it myself."

Zhou Huiwen waved his hand, insisting that Zhou Xiyun stay with Qiao Yan, turned around and went into the kitchen.

Qiao Yan leaned on the back of the sofa with one elbow, and when Zhou Huiwen was far away, he turned around and sat upright, continuing to eat oden as if no one else was around.He was talkative and hyperactive just now, but now he is dumb.

Zhou Xiyun put down his bag and sat quietly aside.

The smell of oden is very fragrant, and the whole living room can smell it.

Qiao Yan took half a mouthful of the lucky bag of fish roe, puffed up his cheeks and chewed, eating alone with a clear conscience, ignoring the other person.After a long time, she seemed to be slow to react, and finally couldn't stand the lingering scrutiny, and with only half a mouthful of strength left, she asked with conscience: "Do you want to eat? I just ordered it."

Zhou Xiyun was not moved. "Don't eat."

She moved her butt with great difficulty, and touched it, a rare and generous one. "Don't worry, no money, I invite you."
