Reborn since 2005

Chapter 490 The Circle
Facing Yan Xin's shock, Chen Li just hummed vaguely and explained:
"It's not easy for her to take care of the child alone, so..."

Yan Xin didn't wait for him to finish his explanation, and said: "Understood, understood, understood, understood. In fact, I always thought that the two of you should be together, and you have children. There is no need to be so stubborn. Now you can get to this point." One step, I am also very happy for you."

Chen Lidao: "I also think what you said is quite reasonable, so I accepted your suggestion."

"Then you can tell Liang Wei later, let's have dinner together then." Yan Xin said.

"She's here with me now." Chen Li said with some embarrassment.

Yan Xin smiled and said, "That's just right, so I don't have to spread the word."

After finishing the call, I thought to myself: "Sure enough, Liang Wei is right next to him, or else he wouldn't speak like this."

He and Chen Li have also been friends for several years, and his voice on the phone is a little abnormal, awkward, and it is probably inconvenient to say some things.

Then there is only one possibility - Liang Wei is beside him.

It's still quite strange in my heart——Chen Li, who has always advertised that he doesn't want to be bound by his family and wants to pursue freedom, how did he get together with Liang Wei again?
Did it suddenly change gender?

Now that Liang Wei was by Chen Li's side, she couldn't ask anything, so she could only suppress her curiosity.

Talked to Xiao Shiyu and prepared to go out for dinner.

While Xiao Shiyu was putting on makeup and tidying up, Yan Xin received a message from Feng Xi: "Ai Lili has gone home, aren't you going to visit her?"

Yan Xin replied: "She must be very tired after taking the train for so long, let her rest for a day first, and ask her tomorrow if she can meet and chat."

Feng Xi didn't say anything more.

Yan Xin was actually a little vain in his heart.

The main reason why he didn't go today is because Xiao Shiyu is still here and won't leave until evening.

At this time, he left Xiao Shiyu to see Ai Lili. Xiao Shiyu would definitely not be happy if he knew about it.

If Xiao Shiyu stayed for a few more days, it would be fine.

I'm leaving tonight, if I don't stay with her, but want to see another woman, then I don't care too much about her feelings.

Although Yan Xin knew in her heart that she didn't care about Xiao Shiyu's feelings, she would endure it and would not do anything to herself.

But anyway, it's still kind of unkind to do so, he can't do this.

So, we can only wait until tomorrow.

Or it wouldn't be too late to ask after Xiao Shiyu left tonight.

Anyway, he couldn't go while Xiao Shiyu was still by his side.

The place to eat at noon is not far from the community, a mid-range restaurant.

Gu Ru and Xiao Yuan came over, and Chen Li also brought Liang Wei over. When he came, he was pushing a stroller, like a baby daddy.

Yan Xin was a little funny and wanted to complain, but seeing Liang Wei here, she was too embarrassed to complain.

Xiao Yin didn't come over. She is too busy now, so she can't spare time at noon, so she just eats a box lunch at the company, and holds a meeting with the team members while eating.

Gu Ru knew that Chen Li was going to bring Liang Wei over, so she wasn't surprised to see the two of them.

But it was the first time she saw Chen Li's child, so she was extremely curious.

In fact, her relationship with Liang Wei is very ordinary, and even in private, the two of them don't like each other a bit.

But on such an occasion, he didn't show it, and he seemed quite enthusiastic.

Even more enthusiastic than others.

She sat next to Liang Wei during the meal, and asked her about pregnancy and childbirth from time to time, as well as the daily life of raising children.

Liang Wei always had a smile on her face, explaining patiently what she could explain.

She didn't quite understand why Gu Ru asked these questions.

Even though she doesn't have a boyfriend, she is so concerned about pregnancy and childbirth.

She even wondered if Gu Ru had nothing to talk about and found a topic to talk to her, so as not to make the atmosphere too embarrassing.

But looking at Gu Ru's expression, it seems that she is really curious about these things.

She shared her experience of giving birth to a child.

She even felt a little secretly grateful to Gu Ru in her heart - if Gu Ru didn't talk about these topics, she would be very embarrassed at this dinner, and she didn't know what to say.

She knew that this was a circle with Yan Xin at its core, and she used to be a member of this circle, but later quit this circle and was already an outsider.

It is not so easy to reintegrate into this circle now.

It's not that if you don't integrate into this circle, you can't survive, it's just that Chen Li and Yan Xin have such a good relationship, and they often have dinner together. If she doesn't get involved, she might have a bad image among Chen Li's friends.

If Chen Li doesn't participate in the activities of this circle because of her, it won't be very good for his career.

——It's not clear to her how Chen Li became a top author in the Internet literature world.

Continuing to maintain a friendly relationship with Yan Xin is very important to Chen Li's future.

On her own, she was able to become a popular female channel author, and Yan Xin's help was also involved.

Now I can re-enter this circle, but if I don't blend in, I will quit sooner or later.

Now that Gu Ru talks to her so much, this is a very good signal, a signal to accept her.

Even though she knew that Gu Ru didn't think highly of her, she still tried her best to make friends.

Xiao Shiyu's situation is different from hers, but she also has similar thoughts, wanting to blend into this circle.

She was actually very happy about this gathering.

Yan Xin's ability to bring her out cannot be said to be an official recognition of her identity, but at least there is a sense of declaration in it.

That's a lot of progress.

After a meal, everyone went home.

Xiao Shiyu began to pack her luggage, preparing to leave at night.

Her ticket is after nine o'clock in the evening, and she can go there after dinner, but her luggage should be packed earlier.

In the afternoon, thinking about the fact that the two of them separated, they would not be able to meet until after the National Day at the earliest, so they did something else.

And more than once.

When going out for dinner at night, Yan Xin felt his legs tremble a little.

Tired is very tiring, but thinking that there will be no chance to be so tired for a long time in the future, Yan Xin can only choose to be more tired.

In the evening, no one else was asked to have dinner together, so the two of them had a casual meal.

After dinner, Yan Xin drove Xiao Shiyu to the train station again. It was already past eight o'clock in the evening when he got there, and he sent Xiao Shiyu into the waiting room until he turned around and drove home.

It was already nine o'clock when I got home.

When taking the elevator up from the underground garage, Yan Xin felt a little depressed thinking that Xiao Shiyu had left and would live alone for a long time.

When he got home and opened the door, Yan Xin was surprised to find that Gu Ru was at his house, sitting in the living room watching TV.

"Hey" said: "Sister Ru, why are you here?"

"Xiao Yin has to work overtime at night, I feel too lonely at home alone, so I came to your house, you don't mind?" Gu Ru said.

"Of course I don't mind..." Yan Xin laughed dryly.

He really didn't care about anything.

The relationship between two people has happened, and it’s okay to live together.

There was even a little joy in my heart.

It's not that there is a beautiful woman on the side of the couch, but that with such a companion, the long night will not be so lonely.

When I broke up with Ai Lili and stayed here alone, I felt quite bad at that time.

Very lonely, very sad, will think about some messy things, the more you think about it, the sadder it becomes, the more you think about it, the sadder it becomes.

If it wasn't so sad, he wouldn't have called Xiao Shiyu just a day after they broke up, asking her to come and accompany him.

Now his emotions have stabilized, and he has gradually accepted the reality, but he is not sure whether he will think of those past events again when he is alone, and whether he will be sad again.

He was terrified anyway.

It is of course good to have someone to accompany him.

"Send the little lover home?" Gu Ru asked him.

"Sent her to the train station." Yan Xin said.

Putting on his slippers, he walked to the living room and saw a bunch of snacks on the coffee table in front of Gu Ru, couldn't help laughing and said:
"Sister Ru, you quit the social circle and want to let yourself go. Why do you put so many snacks?"

Gu Ru said: "I used to manage my body all the time, and I didn't dare to eat more of what I wanted. Now I don't need to be a star, so I have to enjoy it."

"But eating fat is not good for your health." Yan Xin said.

"Don't worry, indulge for a month at most, and then you'll live a healthy life." Gu Ru said.

She was wearing a very loose pajamas, not even buttoned up, but a belt, which was baggy and showed a lot of places.

It can be seen that she has finished taking a shower.

Yan Xin and her have both worked together on childbirth, so there is no need for embarrassment at all when faced with such a small scene.

She was about to sit on the sofa next to her generously, but was pushed by Gu Ru in disgust:
"You smell sour from sweat, hurry up and take a shower, and come back after you take a shower."

Yan Xin was depressed for a moment, and said, "All right."

I can only go to the bedroom to get pajamas, and then go to the bathroom to take a shower.

Gu Ru curled her lips: "As far as our relationship is concerned, you don't even need to bring a change of clothes, and there are no outsiders here, so it's okay if you don't wear them."

When Yan Xin was alone with other women, it was almost like that. As long as the curtains were drawn, there was nothing to hide.

It's just that here with Gu Ru, he always feels that the two of them haven't reached that level yet.

He just shook his head with a smile and went in to take a shower without refuting.

After taking a shower, he put on his pajamas, threw the changed clothes into the washing machine, then came to the living room, and sat next to Gu Ru.

As soon as he sat down, Gu Ru naturally put her two legs on his lap.

Yan Xin didn't dodge either, and let her put her leg up, and stretched out a hand naturally.

"After sending my little lover away, do you feel lonely?" Gu Ru asked with a smile.

Yan Xin smiled wryly, and admitted: "There is indeed a little bit."

"It's okay, she's gone, and my sister will be with you every day." Gu Ru said proudly.

Yan Xin does not reject such behavior, but has some doubts: "Sister Ru, don't you dislike men? Don't you feel uncomfortable living with a big man like me?"

"No, it's very comfortable to be with you. I can relax completely and don't have to worry about what you do to hurt me." Gu Ru said seriously.

After thinking about it, he explained,

"Although I don't like men very much, I don't exclude men. You see, I have a good relationship with Chen Li. Some of my friends in the circle are men. If I exclude men, there won't be those friend."

"That's different. I'm talking about this kind of private relationship," Yan Xin said, "You don't have this kind of private relationship with other men, do you?"

"Of course not," Gu Ru said with a smile, "But it has nothing to do with liking or repulsion, it's simply because the relationship is not that good. You are in my heart, but you are as close as my family, so of course I will not defend myself."

Yan Xin breathed a sigh of relief.

If she was so casual when she was alone with other men, she still couldn't accept it.

——Although he felt that he was not qualified to care about those things, he still couldn't accept it if he couldn't accept it.

Gu Ru smiled again and said: "Don't say I'm a man, even if I'm a woman, I'm not so unguarded towards every woman. It's not that I care about being seen by others, but I'm worried about whether someone will take it. A mobile phone secretly took pictures of me and sold them to reporters."

Yan Xin nodded: "You really need to pay attention to this."

When the two were chatting, Gu Ru fiddled with him with one foot, and suddenly laughed out loud:
"Did you get drained by your little lover today? Why didn't you respond at all?"

Yan Xin was a little embarrassed, but he didn't deny it, he just said, "The separation is imminent, so I can't help it."

Gu Ru smiled and said, "That's fine, I'm going to sleep with you tonight, just worried that you can't help torturing me. Now that you don't have that energy, I can still sleep soundly gone."

The two of them sat next to each other on the sofa, watching TV and chatting, not paying much attention to what was on the TV.

Most of the time, Gu Ru put her feet on Yan Xin's body, looking very natural.

Sometimes Gu Ru would pick two grapes and feed them to Yan Xin.

Yan Xin has never refused, and no one will be rejected.

They don't look like friends, they look like an old married couple.

Yan Xin sometimes forgot that Gu Ru was sitting next to him, and thought it was Ai Lili in a trance.

In this house, he and Ellie spent the longest time together, and they got along more or less like this.

During the period, Yan Xin also sent Ai Lili a QQ message, asking if there was time for the two of them to meet and have a good talk.

But when I posted it, I realized that I was still blocked, and I couldn't even post this message.

It's not suitable to make a phone call at night, and there is Gu Ru next to him, so it's all I can do.

At [-]:[-], Xiao Shiyu sent a message:
"The train has already left."

Yan Xin replied: "Take a good rest and report to me that you are safe when you get home."
