Chapter 152, Lanxi returned to the bedroom and didn't lie down in bed immediately, but plugged in the water heater and waited to take a bath. ┌féisuzw26nbsp;┐

The electronic screen showed that the water temperature was about the same, so she stepped on the slippers and walked in slowly, turned on the faucet, hot water poured down from the nozzle, and when she was about to take a serious bath, the mobile phone outside suddenly rang up.

She was startled, then overjoyed, she casually picked up the bath towel at the side and wrapped it around, and wiped her hands as she walked out.

After picking up the phone, seeing the name displayed on it, like a bulging ball quickly deflated, she pursed her lips and picked it up.

"Xiaoxi?" Through the microphone, Cheng Shaochen's voice was still so heart-warming.

"Hmm..." She responded in a low voice.

There should be sufficient heating in the room. Although she is only wearing a bath towel, she shouldn't feel cold, but at this moment, she wants to end the call quickly so that she can continue to take a hot bath.

"Not asleep yet?"

"No." Lan Xi said, then asked, "What's the matter?"

"Xiaoxi." Cheng Shaochen's tone suddenly became serious.

He seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and then continued, "Xiaoxi, I'm flying back to New York next Friday, you will come with me, okay?"

"what!"

Lanxi was originally listening to Cheng Shaochen's words with concentration, and when he heard him say that he would fly back to New York next Friday, his expression froze, and when he wanted to wait for him to finish speaking later, the lights on the roof seemed to be blown out by the wind. Instantly darkened.

The brightness and warmth of a room instantly became dark and dull.

Like the supernatural scene in the movie, he held his breath and concentrated, and there was a strange sound of rushing.

Just as she was about to scream, she suddenly remembered that it was the faucet that she had not turned off before, so she patted her chest in relief.

But she was alone, in such a situation, but she was still terrified.

While breathing tremblingly, Cheng Shaochen's urgent call came from the microphone of the mobile phone he was holding, "Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi?"

"I, I'm..." She trembled her voice.

Cheng Shaochen said urgently, "What's the matter, are you okay? Is there a power outage?"

"Ah..." Lanxi was stunned for a moment, not knowing how he knew.

"Don't hang up, wait for me for a minute!"

There was an orderly tone in his words, Lanxi was in a state of confusion at this moment, and she didn't dare to look anywhere, vaguely, it seemed that what she heard was the sound of the car door closing from the microphone, and then the sound of fast footsteps...

"Bang bang bang-"

When the knock on the door came, she trembled in fright. In panic, Cheng Shaochen's voice came again from the phone, "Xiaoxi, open the door, I'm the one knocking!"

Hearing that, she stuck her phone to her chest, and it was cloudy and snowy outside. At this moment, the whole community had a power outage, and there were no street lights. It was pitch black everywhere, so she could only grope for the entrance with her intuition.

When she finally reached the door, she fumbled for a long time in the darkness, found the doorknob, and after turning it open, she saw Cheng Shaochen's worried eyebrows with the light of the phone.

"How are you scared?" He walked in and put his hand on her shoulder.

"Fortunately..." Lan Xi said with lingering fear.

In fact, it wasn't that she was so scared to death, it was just that she was still answering the phone when the power went out, so she was caught off guard.

She was only wearing a bath towel, and her shoulders were all bare. His palm was pressed against it, and there was also strength. Although it was also very peaceful, it was different from someone else's.

Thinking of this, she realized that at this moment, how much she wished he could be here.

"Did you take a shower just now?" He asked, feeling her long hair dripping.

"Well, I came out to answer the phone when I heard the phone ring, and then suddenly the power went out..." Lan Xi nodded.

Cheng Shaochen also nodded, using his mobile phone as a light, helped her to the living room and sat down, then turned around and walked into the bathroom, turned off the faucet that was still running, and vaguely saw all the toiletries on the sink When they were both a pair, the Adam's apple rolled a little hard.

After walking back, he had an extra blanket on the bed in his hand. After handing it to her, he asked, "Are there any candles at home?"

"No..." Lanxi thought for a while, then shook her head.

When she came to City H, the house was rented, and she didn't live in it for the first half of the year. She didn't experience a power outage, and she didn't expect to prepare so much.

"Oh, by the way, there is a small desk lamp on the writing desk in the bedroom. It is rechargeable, and it should still have electricity!" She remembered the small rechargeable lamp she bought for her son before.

Hearing this, Cheng Shaochen turned back and took out the small desk lamp she was talking about. Except for the faint light of the mobile phone, there was finally a glimmer of light.

"Why did you come here so soon?" She asked after gradually calming down.

Cheng Shaochen explained, "I called you when I got downstairs. As I was talking, I found that the street lights suddenly went out. When I looked up, the lights in the entire community were also off, so I knew there was a power outage."

"Oh." She nodded understandingly.

The blanket she was wearing was tight, and she stood up, "I'm going to the bedroom to change."

She couldn't continue to take a bath, the power was cut off, and the water heater couldn't continue to work. She changed into her long clothes and trousers before walking out of the bedroom holding the small desk lamp.

The charging lamp was running out of power, and the light in the room gradually dimmed.

She walked back to the living room and saw Cheng Shaochen sitting there with his head slightly lowered, which was his habitual action when he was thinking.

Hearing footsteps, he looked up at her.

"Would you like something to drink?" Lan Xi asked him after sitting down.

Cheng Shaochen shook his head, glanced out the dark window, frowned and said, "It should be because of the snow that the circuit was broken, and it must take a long time to repair."

"Yeah." She nodded, thinking so too.

"Xiaoxi, stay at my house for one night, and come back tomorrow morning!" He suddenly stood up.

"No..." She bit her lip and shook her head.

"Let me put you here alone, I don't worry!" Cheng Shaochen became tough.

"It's really not necessary, it's fine, I'll go to bed soon." Lan Xi shook her head again and refused.

"Are you still going to wait for him?" Cheng Shaochen's voice suddenly dropped.

"..." She pursed her lips slightly, feeling that something was on her mind.

"It's so late, he won't come over." Cheng Shaochen looked away, as if he was restraining his emotions.

Immediately, he reached out and pulled her out.

Lanxi was led by his strength, and anxiously called his name, "Cheng Shaochen!"

The movement stopped, she pursed her lips and looked at him, said softly but firmly, "I want to stay at home..."

No matter what, he would still come back after finishing his affairs, in the past, and there were times when he came back late, but even in the middle of the night, he would still come here.

Cheng Shaochen.

In the past, he always had a headache and she would call himself like this, calling him by his full name ambiguously.When he shouted at this moment, he actually realized that he had some shameful nostalgia, but she was talking about another thing, for another man.

"It's impossible for him to come here, he has to accompany his fiancee!" Cheng Shaochen almost shouted.

"..." Lan Xi was taken aback for a moment, and looked at him blankly.

Taking advantage of the spare time, Cheng Shaochen dragged her directly to the door. The door was closed, and the small rechargeable desk lamp on the coffee table in the living room had been turned off silently due to insufficient power.

*****************************************

It was snowing and the car drove very slowly.

During the whole process, Lanxi's head seemed to be tied in a knot, and Cheng Shaochen's words seemed to be far away in the sky, but they were so clear.

"The cooperation case with He's is over, and the secretary has to go back to New York beforehand. When I went to the airport to see him off in the afternoon, I happened to see He Chenfeng picking up his fiancée..."

In a daze, she seemed to remember something, like the phone call at dinner yesterday, like the deepness after him, like the background noise of the previous phone call.

So had he lied to her?

It was a cold winter night, but her back was sweating a little.

This was the first time Lanxi came to the place where Cheng Shaochen lived, but she was not in the mood to visit.

The design in the room is very simple, the most outstanding thing is the white leather sofa in the living room, it is semi-circular, and it is so soft that Lanxi sits on it, so that a large part collapses, as if there is no center of gravity, she He picked up the pillow and hugged it in his arms.

"Have a cup of hot water." Cheng Shaochen turned back to the kitchen, poured a cup of hot water and handed it to her.

"Thank you." She responded mechanically.

Cheng Shaochen frowned, sat on the coffee table, opened the beer can in his hand, and said slowly, "Xiaoxi, the innermost room is the guest room, you can sleep there, and I will take you back tomorrow morning."

"Hmm..." Lan Xi nodded.

Seeing her drooping brows and eyes, and a large shadow cast on her, Cheng Shaochen's heart was churning complicatedly.

"Xiaoxi, don't feel sorry for those who don't deserve it." He said earnestly.

"..." Lanxi didn't make a sound, just picked the edge of the pillow with her fingers, silently.

"A person like him knows what is more important than what is more important. He can give up his personal feelings and cut off his selfishness. Even if he really has a little sincerity towards you, it can't change anything. He has his own ambitions."

Cheng Shaochen narrowed his eyes, and continued with a sullen expression, "Perhaps, in his eyes, you are no different from other women. When his fiancée comes back, he can abandon you at any time. It's just that you have been unwilling to face it. You should understand that time he didn't dare to recognize Junjun!"

"Stop talking..." Lan Xi, who hadn't responded all this time, finally spoke, but her voice was trembling.

The corners of his mouth twitched and he sighed. Cheng Shaochen raised the beer can and gulped it down.

One can was empty, he got up and wanted to get it again, glanced at Lanxi who was there with his head down, and said softly, "Do you want a drink?"

Hearing this, Lanxi looked up at him, then at the beer can in his hand.

After a while, he nodded, "Yes."

Taking out a few more cans of beer from the refrigerator, Cheng Shaochen walked back, sat on the seat beside her, opened it and handed her a can.

Lanxi took it and drank it in small sips. After drinking the cold wine, she couldn't help wrapping her arms around her shoulders.

He Shenfeng...

She murmured in her heart, and every time she said it, the hole in her heart grew bigger and bigger.

Feeling a big hand caressing her head, she raised her head in a low voice, "Am I stupid?"

"Yes." Cheng Shaochen nodded with a sigh.

The eyelashes fluttered, and there was a little light in the eyes.

But she can't...

How could she say the word of rejection when he hugged her with such a tone of fear of losing?

The room was quiet, with the smell of wine in the air.

While her eyes were dim, she felt Cheng Shaochen suddenly leaned over, his eyebrows widening. She was startled, but he suddenly pressed towards her, releasing all his weight.

"You..." she opened her mouth, but was kissed by him.

Her already cloudy head became even more confused, and the beer can in her hand fell, and she pushed him anxiously.

Cheng Shaochen was no longer as gentle as usual, instead he became more intense because of her struggle, he stuck his tongue in, pried open her teeth, and then reached out to pull her clothes.

As if he had been suppressed for a long time, he found a breakthrough, and his whole body showed explosive power.

Needing's lips and tongue meandered down crazily, sucking marks fiercely on the collarbone and chest exposed by tearing off the clothes, so hard.

"Don't..." she sobbed.

Cheng Shaochen's movements stopped, he propped himself up and looked at her, the frenzy in his eyes regained his composure little by little.

"Xiaoxi, I'm sorry." He pulled her up.

Lanxi looked at him tremblingly, with fear in her eyes, this was something Cheng Shaochen in her memory would not do to her.

He glanced at the marks left on her chest, his eyes tightened without leaving any traces, and then he carefully pulled up the loose sweater for her without going beyond.

He rubbed her head as usual, but his tone was filled with regret, "I'm sorry, I drank too much and thought you were her."

Hearing this, Lanxi's expression froze for two seconds, and then he relaxed.

"It's okay..." He hummed his nose and shook his head.

But her tears couldn't be stopped, maybe it was an emotion that had been suffocated all the time, now that she was released, she couldn't hold it back, and wiped more and more.

"Xiaoxi, don't cry, I really didn't mean it." Cheng Shaochen apologized softly.

"It's okay, I don't blame you." She didn't lie, nothing happened just now, after hearing his explanation, she didn't blame him at all.

But she just wanted to cry.

"Then don't cry, go to bed early, and I'll take you back tomorrow morning." Helping her up, he wiped her tears with his hands.

"Hmm..." Lanxi nodded, and walked in with a little sluggish footsteps.

*****************************************

The snow under the street lamps outside seems to be denser.

Cheng Shaochen stood with his back, looking out of the window without focus, and he slowly turned his head when he heard the footsteps gradually disappear behind the guest bedroom.A few miles away.

After sweeping his gaze, he walked slowly back to the sofa, bent over and picked up the beer cans on the ground.

I don't know where the impulse came from just now, seeing her trance-eyed, slightly biting her lip, he couldn't help kissing her. When the soft touch of her lips came, he suddenly realized that it seemed It's something he wanted to do a long time ago but didn't dare to do.

When he felt her crying, he woke up completely, unable to continue for another second.

Throwing the beer can into the trash can, he laughed to himself.

Drank too much?How could it be possible to only drink two cans.

Think of her as her?If that's the case, you won't be muttering clearly in your heart in the middle of the night, Xiaoxi...

Just when he was about to straighten up, the mobile phone placed on the coffee table vibrated, and a notification on the screen lit up.

It's Lanxi's cell phone.

She was dragged here by him, without a coat on, so he grabbed her mobile phone and keys and brought her here.

After picking it up, he squinted his eyes when he saw a name displayed, and opened the message.

Go to bed early and be obedient.

Without any hesitation, Cheng Shaochen tapped his fingers on the screen keyboard, and composed of concise words: Don't worry, Mr. He.

The message was sent successfully, and he didn't put down the phone in a hurry, but stood there and waited patiently. Sure enough, within ten seconds, the phone rang loudly.

Cheng Shaochen picked it up unhurriedly, "Hello?"

"Where is Xie Lanxi?" There was silence for a while, and then a gloomy voice came. .

"I've already fallen asleep." Cheng Shaochen walked closer to the window and replied warmly.

"Give her the phone!" The anger in the words could no longer be suppressed.

Cheng Shaochen continued calmly and patiently, "I just said that she fell asleep, she is very tired."

There was silence over there, and listening carefully, one could faintly hear breathing that slowed down significantly.

"Mr. He, remember the bet I told you?"

Cheng Shaochen held the phone in front of his eyes and looked at the cut line with sharper eyes.

With a light flick of the finger, without hesitation, all the call records and text messages were deleted.

He walked lightly into the guest bedroom and looked at Lanxi lying on the bed, curled up sideways, as if she thought it was the safest position.

Pulling up the quilt that only covered her chest, and carefully tucking in the corners of the quilt, he put the mobile phone in his hand next to the pillow, and patiently brushed away the strands of hair on her forehead one by one.

He walked out again lightly, and when he was about to close the door, Cheng Shaochen paused, and there was an indescribable emotion entwined in his handsome eyes.

brook...

*****************************************

When she woke up the next day, Lanxi turned over, and the left side of her body was a little numb, because she kept a sleeping position for a long time.

She rubbed her eyes, sat up from the bed, and looked around the room. She remembered that there was a power outage at home last night, and she was brought here by Cheng Shaochen...

Thinking of something, her eyes dimmed.

He turned his head to look for the phone, and when he got it in front of his eyes, he rummaged through it hastily.

If he goes back and she's not here, he will definitely call her!

But there was nothing, and the last communication record about him was also typed by her.

The arm holding the phone was lowered, and even the expression on his face dimmed.

Only she knows how lost she is.
