my best sister-in-law

Chapter 31: Heartbeat

"You, you..." Zhong Xiaofei's tongue was twirling in his mouth, unable to utter a complete sentence.

"Are you okay?" the sweet voice asked lightly.

"Okay, okay." Zhong Xiaofei nodded his head, his heart was beating faster, and his voice was trembling.

"It's so early, didn't I bother you?" The sweet voice was melodious like a piece of music.

"No." Zhong Xiaofei nodded with difficulty, his brain finally sorted out his ideas, and finally he could say a complete sentence, "...Xiao Ran, hello."

Li Xiaoran, a name that I thought was past and should have been forgotten long ago, but was deeply buried in my heart, and suddenly popped up.

"I'm not good." The sweet voice replied lightly, as if he had been wronged.

Zhong Xiaofei was overwhelmed with emotion, and there seemed to be a picture in front of his eyes: Li Xiaoran stood at the school gate with her lips pouted and her pink face frosty, Zhong Xiaofei surrounded her smiling, telling her all kinds of little jokes, and making funny faces , like a dog barking, to make her happy, in the end Li Xiaoran will always smile through tears...

"Why, why, what, what happened?" Zhong Xiaofei stammered and asked, his mind was very unclear now, when he suddenly heard the old friend's voice, his thoughts were completely disrupted, and the dusty memories were flooded like a tide he.

"My sister is gone, the family is very anxious..." Li Xiaoran sighed softly.

Zhong Xiaofei came to his senses, it turned out that Li Xiaoran came for Xiaowei.

"Did you see her?" Li Xiaoran asked.

"Xiaowei, Xiaowei is with me..." Zhong Xiaofei faltered in reply.After saying this, he held his breath and listened to the voice on the other end of the phone. He was thinking, would Li Xiaoran be angry?After all, Xiaowei has been at Zhong Xiaofei's house for several days, and Zhong Xiaofei didn't inform Xiaowei's family, so he is suspected of harboring. In addition, if Li Xiaoran knew that Xiaowei and Zhong Xiaofei lived in the same room, what would he think?Zhong Xiaofei felt a sense of crime in his heart.

Li Xiaoran was not angry, her voice was still sweet, "It's good that she is really with you, well, she didn't cause you any trouble, did she?"

"No, no, absolutely not!" Zhong Xiaofei shook his head like a rattle.

"Thank you, Xiaowei is very willful..." Li Xiaoran sighed softly, "My parents can't control her, and neither can I. She ran away from home this time, and although she kept talking to me on the phone, Xiao Nizi is very cunning. Still refusing to say where I am? I was very worried, but when I knew I was there, I felt relieved..."

Zhong Xiaofei was very moved, but also a little ashamed.

"I'm just sorry to trouble you..." Li Xiaoran's sweet voice was apologetic.

"No trouble, no trouble at all," Zhong Xiaofei quickly defended.

Next, the two were speechless.Through the mobile phone, they listened to each other's breathing.

Zhong Xiaofei's face was flushed, and his heart beat faster. Li Xiaoran was not only his old friend, but also his first love. The two spent their college years together and had countless good memories. Although they broke up in the end, the imprints left by each other were too deep. Who It cannot be erased either.Zhong Xiaofei has been trying his best to forget this relationship, but when he heard Li Xiaoran's sweet voice again, he found that the defensive castle he built was so vulnerable. At this moment, he was so excited that he couldn't help himself.

"I'm a little busy these days, um, I'll go to Haizhou next week." After a while, Li Xiaoran said quietly.

"Welcome. Call me before you come, and I'll pick you up." Zhong Xiaofei's heart was beating wildly, and he had no doubt that Li Xiaoran was as beautiful as ever.

"Well, we haven't seen each other for more than two years, you still speak the same way, nothing has changed." Li Xiaoran asked with a smile.

"You haven't changed," Zhong Xiaofei said with emotion, "Your voice is still so nice..."

Li Xiaoran was silent for a moment, then said quietly, "Yeah, it's been a long time. If Jiajia hadn't told me about it, I would have thought you were all married."

Only then did Zhong Xiaofei realize that it was no wonder Li Xiaoran called, it was Xu Jiajia who told her.

"The poor family is ugly at 1.4 meters nine, which girl is blind, would you marry me?" After talking for so long, Zhong Xiaofei was finally able to tell a joke.

"It must be because you have too many girlfriends, so you're picky? Are you still in ty's company?" Li Xiaoran smiled.

"Well, I don't have the guts to change jobs... What about you, where do you work now?"

"I'm in Guangzhou……"

"So far..." Zhong Xiaofei was a little surprised, he didn't expect Li Xiaoran to go to work in Guangzhou.

"A friend started a company in Guangzhou, and I helped her. Well, my girlfriend." Li Xiaoran added after finishing speaking.This is an obvious message, no matter what she said is true or not, she is so eager to clarify, it shows that she is afraid of Zhong Xiaofei's misunderstanding, and she still has some thoughts about Zhong Xiaofei.

"Oh. Xiao Ran, these years...how have you been?" Zhong Xiaofei asked hesitantly.

"Okay."

"Are you... still alone?" Zhong Xiaofei's heart was beating wildly.

"I'm alone, I'm old, no one wants me..." Li Xiaoran laughed.

Zhong Xiaofei also laughed, very hypocritically.

Then, there was silence again. The two of them seemed to have a lot to say, but they had nothing to say.Until Zhong Xiaofei heard a noise on the phone, as if someone was calling Li Xiaoran's name.

"Okay, my colleague is urging me. I'll hang up first. I'll talk to you later."

"Okay." Zhong Xiaofei said dazedly, "I'll wait for your call, bye."

"bye."

After hanging up the phone, Zhong Xiaofei lay on the sofa in a daze. For a minute, he didn't move. He seemed to be dumbfounded. Li Xiaoran's sweet voice lingered in his ears, and he recalled the sweet past in his mind. As if back in the past.

A minute later, Zhong Xiaofei jumped up suddenly, because he thought of a very serious question: I don't know what that crazy woman Xu Jiajia was talking nonsense to Li Xiaoran?No, you have to call to find out.

Zhong Xiaofei dialed Xu Jiajia's cell phone decisively.

But no one answered.

"Crazy woman..." Zhong Xiaofei wanted to scold anxiously.

Finally, the phone got through.

"What are you doing?" Xu Jiajia said lazily on the other end of the phone, "The dead man is at work and wants to make me lose my job, right?"

Zhong Xiaofei said angrily, "If you lose it, you lose it. What's the point of following a fat pig every day?" Xu Jiajia's boss is a middle-aged fat man, surnamed Zheng, who looks like a pig.

Xu Jiajia was very surprised, "Did you take medicine? Are you so aggressive?"

"Let me ask you, what did you tell Li Xiaoran?"

Xu Jiajia laughed loudly, "So it's because of this, what's the matter, did she call you?"

"Don't worry about it, just tell me, what did you tell her?" Zhong Xiaofei continued to ask.

"What? Are you guilty of being a thief? Are you afraid that I will reveal your scandal?" Xu Jiajia was still laughing.

"Say it quickly?"

"Okay, don't worry, I'll tell you." After laughing, Xu Jiajia thought for a while, "I'll tell Xiao Ran that Xiao Wei is with you."

This is not surprising.

Xu Jiajia continued, "I also said that Xiaowei is staying at your house temporarily, and you also helped Xiaowei find a good job."

This made Zhong Xiaofei a little worried, because Li Xiaoran might misunderstand.

"It's that simple?" Zhong Xiaofei was a little skeptical. With Xu Jiajia's big mouth, he probably wouldn't just say that.

"Also, I told Li Xiaoran that you are a big villain and that her sister is in danger..."

Zhong Xiaofei was speechless, the sweat on his face flowed out after a brush, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and scolded angrily, "Crazy woman, how can you talk nonsense? Am I that kind of person!"

"You are that kind of person!" Xu Jiajia laughed again.After a while, he said: "Deadhead, you really don't know how to tease me. I was joking with you, don't worry, I didn't speak ill of you, I just told Li Xiaoran that her sister is with you."

Zhong Xiaofei suppressed his anger, and asked half-believingly, "Really?"

"I don't believe it!" Xu Jiajia said angrily, "Besides, I heard Li Xiaoran's tone, she trusts you very much, and her sister and I live in the same room as you, and she doesn't doubt it at all, alas, she I thought you were that pure boy from before!" He laughed again.

"Am I not pure?" Zhong Xiaofei asked pretending to be confused.

"Ah bah, if you were pure, there would be no impure people in the world! You were indeed quite pure when you were in school, but now it's getting worse and worse..."

Zhong Xiaofei was speechless. It wasn't that he had changed, but that the society had changed. A pure person could not survive in this cruel society.

Xu Jiajia laughed hysterically again, and suddenly remembered, and said, "Oh, no, I haven't finished what the boss asked me to do. I blame you for the dead head. If you don't have this month's bonus, you will have to pay for it." Pay me, okay, I won’t tell you anymore!” He hung up the phone with a snap.

The sun was dazzling, it was already past nine o'clock in the morning, Zhong Xiaofei was sitting on the sofa, and he was a little confused.

Li Xiaoran is coming next week, how should he face this old lover?Where's Xiao Wei?Should I tell her about her sister's coming?

At noon, Zhong Xiaofei ate at the Xiangnan restaurant. When he was about to leave work, he called Xiaowei. Xiaowei said sweetly that she and sister Wu would eat together in the company cafeteria at noon, so don't worry about her.Zhong Xiaofei touched his nose and came to the restaurant alone. He didn't mention her sister to Xiaowei.

Sitting down, ordered two dishes, and ate in silence, feeling a little irritable. Li Xiaoran will come to Haizhou next week. For Zhong Xiaofei, he was both looking forward to and afraid. What he looked forward to was seeing his old lover, and what he feared was losing Xiaowei.Comparing the two, it seems that he is more worried about the latter.

It's like a trial, every minute that passes means that the court time is approaching by one minute.Zhong Xiaofei had to get everything ready before the court session.

Suddenly there was a commotion in the restaurant, and the guests stretched their necks to look around. Zhong Xiaofei followed everyone's gaze, and saw a stunning beauty with a variety of styles walking out of the restaurant's box.Zhong Xiaofei froze for a moment, thinking why is she here?

This beautiful woman is none other than Li Sanshi's wife, Xiong Huilin.

Xiong Huilin was there, and of course Li Sanshi was also there, and he walked beside his wife.In the office in the morning, the husband and wife were still enemies, and after only half a day, the two reconciled as before, intimate and sweet, looking at the guests in the restaurant, everyone envied them.

With peach cheeks and apricot face, skin like frozen snow, swaying eyes, willow waist and slender waist, Xiong Huilin's demeanor made the guests in the restaurant hold their breath and stare at her dumbfounded.Zhong Xiaofei took a sip of red wine, his eyes were also focused on this magnificent woman, he was secretly amazed, but also jealous and resentful: such a peerless beauty is actually Li Sanshi's wife, God is so unfair .

I thought the couple would leave proudly, but they actually walked towards Zhong Xiaofei.
