Love in Hancheng

Chapter 8
"Nuannuan, Dongcheng will move out in the future, why don't you move here."

It doesn't make much difference whether Han Dongcheng moves out or not. As far as I know, he also has his own apartment, and it's not a common thing for him to go back to the Han family's old house, but there must be other reasons for his mother to say it like this.

As soon as my heart moved, I heard my mother say:
"Some time ago, someone introduced him to a girl from a good family background. Dongcheng seems to have a good impression of her. If nothing unexpected, he should have agreed!"

I even suspected that my mother called, just to tell me that Han Dongcheng already had her own, not to care about me.

I clenched the phone tightly, and for a moment, I couldn't find my breath, as if I was suddenly pressed into the icy water, and I was drenched and cold for a while.

"Mom, you don't need to tell me whether Han Dongcheng is moving out or who he is with. I live here very well. It's late, so I'll go to bed first!"

No matter how unreasonable I was to my mother, I didn't care that my tone seemed a little urgent. After I hung up the phone, it was like gasping for breath from suffocating cold water.

Han Dongcheng, if we meet, can we change the world and my impression in your mind?
Thinking of this, I realized that I was a little stage fright unconsciously.

I couldn't help but think of the scene where Han Dongcheng saw Huo Lingsha at the meeting place. That pretty girl, Huo Lingsha like that, naturally has the capital to make a man fall in love at first sight.

It seems that those words in the game are just a passing moment.

He turned on the computer by accident, and saw the information box displayed on the screen for the first time.

"See you soon!"

The four words seemed to have Han Dongcheng's aura, and he clenched his fist unconsciously. Qiu Huanuan, no matter what, let's work hard for ourselves again.

It's just that after being disturbed by such a call from my mother, the heart that was trying to calm down seemed to boil again.

After taking a hard shower, he lay back down, not daring to anticipate what he would encounter with Han Dongcheng, so he tried his best to go to bed early.

Han Dongcheng was wearing a clean white shirt, with the top two buttons unbuttoned, clean black casual trousers wrapped around his slender legs, overlapping to create a pair of elegance and dignity, fine black hair, not particularly well-groomed, but It's very clean and refreshing.

His silhouette, like a shimmering shadow, suddenly appeared in my world.

The fingers holding the cup were long and slender, and the corners of the lips were lightly pursed, with a kind of comfort and free and easy, but thrilling and charming.

When he turned his eyes, I seemed to see those calm and bright eyes, which suddenly lit up, and his faint smile was enough to light up all my dark times.

When I thought it was within reach, I couldn't help shouting.

"Han Dongcheng~"

But when I found that my voice didn't seem to be conveyed, I couldn't help being anxious when I saw Han Dongcheng seem to get up and leave.

"Han Dongcheng~"

When Ji Ling sat up, he realized that it was a dream.

But I didn't expect that when I arrived at the rose garden early at five o'clock in the afternoon, the Han Dongcheng I saw seemed to be exactly the same as in my dream.

Han Dongcheng was wearing a snow-white shirt and casual trousers, making him capable and casual. When the tall figure approached the rose garden with a calm gait, my eyes followed closely, but he was in a taxi , there is no way to act.

Maybe it's because I'm being sentimental, Han Dongcheng's imposing but unassuming car didn't appear in my sight, and even his outfit is much more low-key and easy-going than usual, in order to give me a feeling of not being ostentatious. Domineering impression?
Or, is this the true face of Han Dongcheng?

"Miss, don't you want to get out of the car?"

Watching the meter of the taxi keep moving, the driver reminded me and brought me back to my senses.

"Oh!"

I was slightly taken aback, and paid the fare, but I didn't directly approach the gate of the rose garden.

I saw the waitress in the rose garden, dressed like a servant in the middle ages, serving Han Dongcheng respectfully, with meticulous attention to detail, and Han Dongcheng smiled faintly, the waitress seemed to have been shocked, I saw her pointing at a place in a hurry.

When Han Dongcheng nodded and walked towards that geographically superior position, he suddenly felt something. He suddenly turned his face, and I instinctively walked two steps towards the flowers and trees in front of me, my heartbeat was a little out of control.

I can't imagine what would happen if Han Dongcheng saw me at this time, this situation was not what I expected.

What I don't want to face in advance may be a disaster.

When I stepped over the flowers and trees and took a step forward, I happened to see Han Dongcheng sitting gracefully on a chair, his silhouette was like a dream, so close and realistic, it seemed within reach.

Han Dongcheng just came here, giving me endless courage and extravagant hopes, and also made me not want to get close at this moment.

He sat on the mahogany chair, and he picked up the magazine next to him. Facing the waitress's hospitality, he only gave a few brief instructions, and the waitress walked away embarrassingly.

This kind of Han Dongcheng came for me. This kind of Han Dongcheng seems to be leisurely and comfortable, but he came here sincerely.

At this moment, the past time appeared in front of my eyes like a slideshow.

That dark night, that noisy place, that Han Dongcheng who even sounded a little reproachful: "Girl, don't come to this kind of place in the future!"

The first time I was reprimanded by the opposite sex, I opened my eyes wide and looked at him quietly, watched him approach, watched him move away, watched his back, and had firmly remembered his name.

"He's Han Dongcheng~"

Some people exclaimed, some people envied me, some people looked at me and smiled inexplicably. The consequence of going to a nightclub for the first time was that I fell in love with someone. After six years, I couldn’t escape this demon.

When I looked up, I saw Han Dongcheng sipping the drink in his cup, staring out the window as if inadvertently, that kind of him is not indifferent, that kind of him is waiting for me.

Time passed by little by little, but I had no intention of going there. I don't know if I didn't want to destroy this rare feeling of anticipation, or subconsciously knew that this was the last beauty. When I looked at him, it was like looking at a painting in a painting. The scenery is more like a mirage on the sea, afraid that everything will be disillusioned after touching it.

Women, when it comes to dating, have the right to be late.

Of course, after seeing that the time had passed six o'clock, when Han Dongcheng looked up at the approaching night outside the window again, I realized that I forgot my heartbeat and fear. As long as I take a step forward, Han Dongcheng will look at you differently I.

At a quarter past six, he was still waiting.

At 06:30, he raised his head again.

At quarter to six, he ordered another drink.

At this moment, I feel that I am happy.

It takes a second to make a decision, and you can't stand hesitation, because in the next second, God will take away this luck, let alone give you the opportunity to blame others and regret it.

If I know the person I will meet next, I will never hesitate to take that step because of greed and fear.

"Hi, Hua Nuan?"

When the voice of joy and surprise sounded in my ears, I was slightly startled, as if I was on the top of a dream, and suddenly I was gently pushed by someone, and I fell into the abyss of the sea of ​​clouds.

"what are you doing here?"

Huo Lingsha opened her eyes wide, with faint doubts in her eyes. Under the light, her makeup and clothes were obviously carefully chosen. Compared with the first time I saw her, this Huo Lingsha was obviously more beautiful and elegant.

Her expression seemed to be guessing something, her eyes moved forward, and finally crossed the misty time and space, and cast it on the person sitting over there. For a moment, I seemed to understand who she came for.

"What a coincidence, why are you here?"

My mouth was a little dry, my tone was a little stiff, I instinctively wanted to hide something, and I was thinking about what Huo Lingsha meant by coming here, and whether she saw my absent-mindedness and looking away just now.

Probably because the tone of my question was a bit abrupt, Huo Lingsha smiled unnaturally, revealing a touch of shyness and happiness in a sweet and elegant way.

"Dining here with friends, how about you?"

Flying straight down, it is not a three-thousand-foot waterfall, but an unresolved heart.

I don't want to admit that I made a mistake, but if Han Dongcheng had originally asked Huo Lingsha, how else could I understand?

With my eyes wide open unconsciously, I felt that my expression must be stiff. At this moment, I would rather give up thinking.

"I~"

How can I say it?What if the person who has an appointment with Huo Lingsha is not Han Dongcheng, what if everything is my wishful thinking?
"Are you looking for Dongcheng for something?"

Huo Lingsha's soft-spoken concern shattered the mirage that had just been beautiful. Maybe she could see it, maybe she couldn't, but Huo Lingsha's generous inquiry made me lose the wind.

Dongcheng, when Huo Lingsha called out such a title, it sounded so nice, but it was just a numb pain in my heart, and all fantasies came to an end here.

"It's okay, just passing by!"

Han Dongcheng, who rushed over from five o'clock, was so elegant and casual that he was willing to wait for a woman for nearly two hours, never belonged to me.

Qiu Huanuan, you are a real fool.

So stupid to think that Han Dongcheng could really accept him, so stupid to think that just a virtual character in the game made him wait willingly.

"Actually, Dongcheng is very talkative, so you don't have to be afraid of him~"

I can't tell if Huo Lingsha is intentional or not. I only know that her relaxed and simple tone makes me feel ridiculous.

"Hi Tojo, sorry I'm late!"

Just when I was about to end the date that I didn't even know would end like this, I only heard Huo Lingsha's voice like Huang Ying's, with a hint of shyness and apology, towards Han Dongcheng who had just walked to the door.

"I came early!"

Han Dongcheng's voice was indeed much softer than usual. I could feel his gaze falling on me, and I felt as if I was being stabbed by thin needles. The so-called embarrassment was nothing more than that.

Compared with the last time when Han Dongcheng took Ji Mingchuan to Han's house, I don't even have anger and grievances at this time, but a kind of resignation to fate.

"Hua Nuan was the first friend I made when I returned to China, and I just met her."

Huo Lingsha seemed to see that the scene was a bit stiff, and her cheerful and calming tone, with a little protective and warm feeling, seemed to know that Han Dongcheng would hurt me.

But what she said like this drew a faint smile on Han Dongcheng's face, if there was something so familiar, the doubt in his eyes slowly filled with suspicion, let me know that he was developing in another direction.

"What a coincidence!"

When the words Han Dongcheng spilled from his lips as light as a feather, I saw that although he was smiling, his eyes were frozen.

In his opinion, whether it was "pretending to be pitiful" in the nightclub six years ago, or making friends with Huo Lingsha in front of him, were they all trying to get close to him?

If Han Dongcheng doesn't trust me, it doesn't matter how much I do. If Han Dongcheng doesn't trust me, even if he shows his sincerity, it will be fishy in his opinion.

"It's a coincidence. I saw Hua Nuan just now, and thought I was wrong. Why don't we go in together?"

Seeing this, Huo Lingsha tried to smooth things over, while Han Dongcheng's eyes lingered on my face, as if he could see through the deepest thoughts in my heart, quietly, the corners of his lips became tighter and tighter.

"I'm afraid Hua Nuan also has an appointment?"

I haven't heard Han Dongcheng call my name before, so when he uttered those two words, it was extremely harsh, did he see it?Did he guess it?How is he going to deal with me who is 'unscrupulous and wasteful'?
He made an appointment with me in the rose garden, but he also made an appointment with Huo Lingsha. What's his intention? Did he tell me to make me give up completely?

"Boss Han is right, I have a date."

I tried my best to pack up all my self-esteem and build up my strength bit by bit, but at this moment the phone rang, and without thinking too much, I quickly took out the phone.

"Hey, um, okay, I seem to have found the wrong place, I'll be right there!"

Ignoring Ye Xiaoran's doubts during the phone call, I quickly hung up the phone, looking at Huo Lingsha's suspicious eyes, and Han Dongcheng's eyes that seemed to be watching a show, I didn't want to stay here for another second.

"I still have something to do, goodbye!"

I said this to Huo Lingsha, I didn't even look at Han Dongcheng, I turned around and left, I didn't give him the slightest chance to continue hurting and doubting, I no longer hoped that one day he would be able to see my goodness, let alone With the result of the bloody battle, I have no reason to let myself continue to fantasize.

I hung up Ye Xiaoran's phone, the road under my feet was hard, but I walked fast, I thought I could travel through time and get out of this haze, I thought I could get rid of Han Dongcheng's eyes, that kind of gaze , that kind of mockery.

When the bar was booming just now, after I stopped to look at it, Han Dongcheng's words rang in my mind: "Girl, don't come to this kind of place in the future!"

With a heartbeat, I stepped into the bar, no longer miss anything, no longer miss anything, no longer have to guard a word, and live in a self-righteous fantasy all year round.

"Miss, although the alcohol content of this is not high, you will get drunk if you drink too much!"

"Two more glasses!"

It is said that when you are drunk, you will feel better. When you are drunk, you can cry when you want, laugh when you want to laugh, and make trouble when you want to be crazy.

"Miss Qiu Huanuan, right?"

The man wearing black-rimmed glasses looks a bit sissy, but his eyes are not sissy.

I didn't think I would know such a character, but his ability to say my name directly was enough to make me wary.

I don't know if the so-called drunk is like me, suddenly I felt a little fearless, I sat up straight, looked at the not-so-strong man in front of me, and said in an unfriendly tone: "I don't know you!"

The place where I was sitting was a bit out of the way, and the people around me were drinking in twos and threes, and no one paid special attention to it. I wanted to get up and pay the bill, but I saw the man take out a piece of paper like a post-it note from his pocket. When asked what was going on, he said humanely: "50, we want to negotiate a condition with Miss Qiu!"

I was a little baffled, and couldn't help asking:

"What do you mean?"

When the man saw me asking him this, he smiled mockingly.

"Miss Qiu, why do you have to keep pretending?"

I confirmed that this person was talking to me, but his tone made me annoyed, when, I was so unwelcome, everyone despised and doubted me.

"say clearly!"

The originally gloomy mood seemed to be blowing a storm in my chest. I didn't want to get angry at the irrelevant person, but obviously the other party didn't intend to let it go.

"50, stay away from Ji Mingchuan."

Seeing that I really didn't seem to know, the man hesitated a little, and the request he said made me even more baffled, and his determined eyes made me laugh out of anger.

"I don't know why you ask me so. It's my business who I want to be close to and who I want to stay away from!"

Normally, I might be able to calm down, but at this moment I feel wronged, why, whoever I love and who I don't love, someone has to interfere, Han Dongcheng can't get close, and Ji Mingchuan can't get close?Who stipulated these?

I want to cry, but I can't cry, I'm just a little uncharacteristically arrogant, which makes the man in front of me a little angry and anxious: "The person Ji Mingchuan likes is not you!"

The man's determined tone made me speak sharply.

"Is it you that he likes?"

After I finished speaking, I was ready to leave. I was angry at his unreasonable arrival and demands, and I felt depressed because of my life being interfered by others. I just wanted to have such a night and let myself be quiet for a while.

"100 million! It's enough for you to buy a nice house!"

The man seemed to have made up his mind and added another 50, but I looked at him, smiled, and then took out my mobile phone from my handbag in a strange way, doing something that I had never thought of in my life.

It is not difficult to find Ji Mingchuan's phone number. It is at the bottom of the list of received calls. If it is a few days later, this number may not exist.

"Hello, Ji Mingchuan? I'm Nuannuan, I'm at the 'Qingyise' bar on Wutong Road, can you pick me up, I'm waiting for you!"

When I hung up the phone with a smile, I naturally remembered Ji Mingchuan's affirmative answer after he reacted.

"I'll come over now!"

His affirmation made me a little relieved and relieved, and I smiled at the man in front of me.

"you?"

The man was obviously pissed off by me, and he added with some earnestness: "Ji Mingchuan definitely doesn't really like you, and the only person who will regret it will be you!"

I don't know who Ji Mingchuan really likes, whether I regret it or not is not what I care about now, I just want to resist something instinctively.
