Fallen

Chapter 2
The barbecue organized by the technical department was delayed for a week, and Xia Xia was their key invitee. She happened to be fine that Sunday, so she agreed to go, and by the way, Xiaochun was also invited.

On a sunny day, the barbecue area in the Wetland Park is smoky, and the air is full of smoky smells. Xia Xia actually doesn't like this kind of activity. Xiaochun half-heartedly stayed by her side in the work of separating the frozen ingredients.

"Hey!" Xiaochun suddenly tugged on her sleeve, and asked furtively, "Who is that guy who keeps glancing at us?"

Xia Xia glanced at the distance, with an innocent expression on his face: "Colleague! My name is Xu Jing. If you like me, I will introduce you."

"Shut up your dog mouth!" Xiaochun gave her a white look, "I think he is interested in you! This person is good-looking, but he always looks at people secretly, and he feels a little stingy."

Xia Xia stretched her neck and looked up and down at the sour Xiaochun: "I said, you won't really fall in love with me, will you?"

In college, Xiaochun was her patron saint, clearing the way for her like a bodyguard wherever she went, so that neither of them fell in love in the past four years.Some people even secretly talked about the two of them as "Lily" behind their backs.

"Damn!" Xiaochun glared at her fiercely, "I'm doing it for your own good! Look at you, you're a fool all day long. I'm really worried that you'll be cheated someday!"

Xia Xia was in a good mood, and flattered her with a smile: "With you here, who would dare!"

Xiong Wen ran over to get the ingredients, and Xia Xia had already put them on plates by category, but he was not in a hurry to leave after taking them, he squatted down and winked and asked: "Xia Xia, I want to ask you something, ice cream, oh, no no , Is Ms. Qiu a new investor in our company?"

"I haven't heard of it." Xia Xia glanced at him, "Isn't she still Mr. Ye's girlfriend not long ago? Why is she an investor again now?"

"Two different things." Xiong Wen ignored her teasing, with a serious expression, "Look, this Qiu Wenxuan came here inexplicably and strangely. Although she has a small job in the finance department, Feng Yuanzhe has to ask her for instructions on everything. That attitude Respectful, hey! Didn’t someone say that? Feng Yuanzhe is the bellwether of our company’s personnel changes! I’m not afraid of anything else, but I’m afraid that Mr. Ye will no longer care about the company’s affairs.”

"I really don't know."

"Xia Xia, it's too outlandish for you to say that." Xiong Wen was dissatisfied, "This is not a commercial secret! Besides, what are we asking for? Isn't the plan able to work smoothly! To be honest, we Everyone thinks Mr. Ye is a good person, if he leaves, Mai Xin really doesn't know if it's worth staying..."

But no matter how he insinuated, Xia Xia's mouth was always closed tightly.

The matter of Qiu Wenxuan has not been announced in the company yet, and only a few people know about it. Xia Xia also promised Ye Yinfeng not to disclose it to the outside world. After all, she knows that such things cannot be talked about without the boss telling her.

Seeing that he couldn't find anything out, Xiong Wen was quite disappointed, and a little suspicious: "It is said that you are someone close to Mr. Ye, so you can smell something!"

Xiaochun interrupted: "She is stupid!"

Xiong Wen glanced at her and laughed, "It's better to be silly, be safe!"

Xiaochun stared at him immediately and said happily, "Then you are quite safe."

Barbecuing is the quintessential busy, hungry activity.Before eating two roasted wings, Xia Xia's phone rang, and it was actually Qiu Wenxuan calling.

"Xia Xia, can I ask you a favor?"

"Speak." Xia Xia hurriedly stood up, away from the noisy crowd.

"That's it. Mr. Ye and I are on the highway back to Sanjiang. There seems to be an accident ahead and there is a traffic jam."

After she explained a few words, she got to the point a bit awkwardly: "My daughter is going to dance class today, and I have to pick her up at three o'clock, but I'm sure I won't be in time now. If it's convenient for you, can you..."

Qiu Wenxuan also has a daughter. Xia Xia was a little surprised, but she didn't show it. She said bluntly, "Yes, you can tell me the address."

Qiu Wenxuan reported the address of the training center to her, and explained: "Her name is Qiu Xuedong, you can call her Xiaodong. I will call her teacher right now—Xia Xia, thank you so much!"

"You're welcome, it's not a big deal." Xia Xia looked at the time, it was already 02:30, "I'll be there now."

"Okay. Besides, after you send her back, I have to trouble you to accompany her for a while. I will hurry back as soon as possible."

After answering the phone, Xia Xia greeted everyone and was about to leave, then asked Xiaochun: "Are you going back now or..."

Xiaochun immediately yelled, "I haven't eaten anything yet!"

Xiong Wen also said enthusiastically: "Yes, leave your sister to us and promise to treat you well."

It was exactly three o'clock when Xia Xia rushed to the training center. She found the dance class among a group of parents. Little girls in pink dance clothes flew out of it like little pink butterflies. Xia Xia was overwhelmed.

When she entered the door, there were not many girls left.

The young dance teacher was arranging the props. Xia Xiadao explained why he came. The teacher pointed to a girl standing by the window and told her: "She is Qiu Xuedong—Qiu Xuedong, someone is here to pick you up."

Qiu Xuedong was originally standing facing out of the window, and immediately turned his head when he heard the sound, Xia Xia saw a delicate face and a pair of big eyes very similar to Qiu Wenxuan, but those eyes immediately dimmed when they came across Xia Xia .

Xia Xia walked over and knelt down to say hello to her: "Hello, Xiaodong. Your mother asked me to pick you up."

"Where's mom?"

"She's busy with something and can't make it. Let's go home and wait for her."

Xiaodong thought for a while, and sensiblely put his hand into Xiaxia's palm.

After leaving the training center, Xia Xia hailed a taxi on the side of the street, carried Xiao Dong into the back seat, and the two sat side by side.Xiaodong stood upright, with her two little hands resting on her lap.

Xia Xia couldn't help laughing: "Xiaodong, you don't have to be so serious, get out of class is over now."

"The teacher said, you have to sit like this." Xiaodong maintained his posture.

"how old are you?"

"Four years old."

"Oh, is that in middle school?"

"Ah."

Seeing that she was wearing thin clothes, Xia Xia asked again: "Xiaodong, are you cold?"

"not cold."

Xia Xia touched her hand, her little hand was cold, she couldn't help curling her mouth, took off her coat and wrapped it around her.

Qiu Wenxuan's apartment was rented for her by the company, and Xia Xia handled it all by herself. She had a set of spare keys for the gate, but she didn't expect to use it today.

It was chilly in the apartment, Xia Xia closed two windows, sat with Xiao Dong in the living room for a while, and asked her, "Are you hungry?"

"Not hungry."

Xia Xia found that Xiaodong seldom talked, and every time she answered a question, she cherished words like gold, but she was not like an indifferent girl. At her age, she probably didn't understand what "indifference" was. It seemed to be just a habit, Xia Xia remembered. Qiu Wenxuan is also reticent in the company.

"Since you're not hungry, let's play a game, shall we?"

Xiaodong shook his head: "I don't have the strength."

Xia Xia was surprised: "Why are you so weak?"

She pointed to her body: "soft."

Xia Xia suddenly smiled and said, "That means you're hungry! Just wait, I'll find you something to eat."

She searched the few places she could flip, the refrigerator was full of raw ingredients, and there were no pastries anywhere.

There was still a handful of dried noodles in the kitchen cabinet, Xia Xia asked Xiaodong, "Can I make some noodles for you?"

Xiaodong nodded.

A bowl of hot noodles was quickly eaten by Xiaodong. She put down her chopsticks, raised her face and smiled at Xia Xia, and said softly, "It's delicious."

Looking at her satisfied little face, Xia Xia was inexplicably moved.

Xiaodong no longer sat obediently, and found a few plush toys in the corner, swinging them around on the sofa, as if performing a pantomime, suddenly raised his head and said to Xiaxia: "Now I have strength."

Xia Xia couldn't help laughing again.

It was past five o'clock when Qiu Wenxuan arrived home, and Xia Xia was playing games with Xiaodong. The two imitated the calls of various small animals, giggling from time to time.

Seeing her daughter's smiling face, Qiu Wenxuan breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Xia Xia again.

Xia Xia couldn't bear other people's gratitude the most, and awkwardly grabbed her short hair: "Your daughter is so cute."

Qiu Wenxuan said with a smile: "She is usually a little afraid of seeing strangers, I really have to trouble you today as a last resort, but it seems that Xiaodong likes you very much."

She turned her head and asked her daughter, "Is that right, Xiaodong?"

Xiaodong pursed her lips and smiled, Xia Xia felt that her expression was very similar to Qiu Wenxuan.

Qiu Wenxuan asked Xia Xia to stay after dinner before leaving, but Xia Xia insisted on refusing. The mother and daughter sent her to the elevator entrance, Xia Xia repeatedly asked them to go back, and then they broke up.

Standing in the elevator, Xia Xia felt that something was changing quietly, and Qiu Wenxuan was no longer as far away as the clouds in her impression.

After seeing Xia Xia off, Wen Xuan went home to make dinner, and when the smell of stewed pork ribs wafted out, Xiao Dong walked in with a teddy bear in her arms and said, "Mom, I've eaten noodles."

"Aunt Xia Xia made it for you?"

"Ah."

Wen Xuan frowned, but her tone was still gentle: "Okay, then I will allow you to eat less dinner today."

"Mom, I can't eat anymore."

Wen Xuan knelt down and stroked her daughter's face: "Be obedient, eat a little more, look at how skinny you are."

The doorbell was ringing, Wen Xuan was a little surprised, could it be that Xia Xia came back again?
Qiu Wenxuan cautiously looked out of the cat's eyes, but what she saw was Ye Yinfeng's face.

Wen Xuan adjusted her breathing before opening the door, with a smile on her face in time: "Why are you here?"

She moved aside so that Ye Yinfeng could enter the door, but the latter stood still at the door and handed over a mobile phone. Wen Xuan saw that it was her own.

"You got out of the car just now. I was afraid you needed it urgently, so I brought it here for you." Although Ye Yinfeng also smiled, his smile was obviously polite and reserved.

"Come in and talk."

"No, I still have something to deal with, so I have to go back."

Wen Xuan hesitated for a moment, took her mobile phone, and looked at him with a half-smile: "You...are you avoiding me?"

Ye Yinfeng's expression froze for a moment, and he smiled: "Why?"

"Then come in and sit for a while?"

Ye Yinfeng couldn't resist her, so he could only walk in the door.

Xiaodong was still hugging her little bear, standing in the middle of the spacious living room, watching him curiously.

"Your daughter?"

"Yes! Xiaodong, call me uncle."

Xiaodong didn't speak, but stared at Ye Yinfeng with big eyes.

Ye Yinfeng likes children, he bowed his head and stroked her little head: "Your name is Xiaodong?"

Xiaodong's face suddenly turned pale, and he turned around and ran into the room. Ye Yinfeng was immediately embarrassed. Wen Xuan hurriedly asked him to sit down, and explained with a little anxiety: "She sees strangers like this."

Wenxuan left Ye Yinfeng to look at Xiaodong, and he just took this opportunity to look around.

He only visited this house with Xia Xia before signing the contract. After Wenxuan's mother and daughter moved in, he visited again in the future.

The room is clean and tidy, except for the furniture and furnishings provided by the landlord, almost no new things have been added, showing the unique cold atmosphere of the hotel.Fortunately, there is a dense stew aroma in the air, which adds a bit of home flavor.

Wen Xuan came out of the bedroom with a helpless expression.

"How is she?" Ye Yinfeng asked with concern.

"It's okay. I'm playing by myself!" Wen Xuan shook her head and smiled wistfully, "This child has such a personality, and she is afraid of being born too badly. I was hesitant to take her to the boarding school she attended when she was in Lanxi, but... Sigh !"

She stopped in the middle of speaking, Ye Yinfeng could not ask more questions, so he could only comfort her in a general way: "Kids will have a little bit, and it will be fine when they grow up."

Just as Wen Xuan was about to sit down on the sofa, she suddenly thought of something, and ran into the kitchen with a cry of "Oops".

She was wearing a tight black sweater, a pair of black trousers, and a pair of colored soft soles on her feet. As soon as she started running, the long hair in the shawl spread out, her soft waist swayed back and forth, and suddenly, The person disappeared at the door of the kitchen, as if being sucked into a huge black hole.Ye Yinfeng felt a little worried for no reason.

Not long after, Wen Xuan appeared at the door of the kitchen again. Although she had a smile on her face, the black clothes did not lessen the desolation that wrapped around her body.

"I forgot to turn off the fire for the soup." She said as she walked over, "Have dinner here before leaving?"

Ye Yinfeng looked at his watch: "No, I really still..."

"You don't have to meet me like this." Wen Xuan said with a bit of resentment in her tone, "We are still relatives, even though we have never met before."

Ye Yinfeng didn't know how to respond to her, so he was silent for a moment, and said: "I will finish handling the company affairs as soon as possible, and try to hand over to you by the end of this month."

"So... what are your plans for the future?"

"I haven't thought about it, I'm considering resting for a while before talking." Ye Yinfeng smiled at her, "Thank you for giving me this opportunity, so I can relax."

He has a gentle tone and no sense of sarcasm. Although it is not easy to send out the "child" he raised with one hand, Ye Yinfeng is still a chic person in his heart. and start over.Of course, he didn't think it was necessary for him to explain to Qiu Wenxuan his plans after leaving Maixin.

Wen Xuan glanced at him, silently went into the room and took out a big envelope.

"Look at this."

Ye Yinfeng took it cautiously: "What is it?"

"I asked a lawyer to help me draft it, and you will understand after reading it."

Inside the envelope is an agreement document, which roughly means that Qiu Wenxuan is willing to transfer 51% of Maxin's shares to Ye Yinfeng for free, and Ye Yinfeng will continue to manage the company.

After reading it, he stared at Wen Xuan: "What do you mean?"

Wen Xuan smiled: "No other meaning, I just hope that you can continue to stay in Maixin. I don't know anything about company operations. If you leave, I have only two ways out, or hire someone randomly, and it may happen within a few years. Take the company down; or sell the company directly. No matter which way you go, the life and death of this company has nothing to do with you and me in the future. But I think... this may not be what you want to see."

Ye Yinfeng frowned slightly, staring at the document without saying a word.

It's not that he hasn't thought about the future fate of Maixin, but he can't stay and guard it unprincipled because of a consequence that may make him regret.After all, people are selfish. In the end, the first consideration is always their own feelings.

Wen Xuan observed his expression keenly, and continued: "How to say, Maixin is an inheritance left by your elder brother, and it is the result of your hard work for so many years. I don't think I can just destroy it like this."

From Ye Yinfeng's expression, Zhongxuan could feel that her persuasion had worked this time.

"As for the division of shares, I have also considered giving them all to you. I only work in the company. After all, I have never worked in this company."

Ye Yinfeng looked up at her as if shaken.

"However," Wenxuan smiled apologetically, "I hope you can understand that I still have a daughter to raise. I also believe that with you running Maixin, Xiaodong and I should have someone to rely on for the rest of our lives."

Ye Yinfeng's slender fingers slowly rubbed the edge of the document, Wen Xuan's sad tone touched the softest part of his heart, and the original determination suddenly collapsed.And the eyes she looked at him were as gentle as water, which made him dare not look directly at him, and he began to fight fiercely in his heart.

Wen Xuan waited patiently for him.

Finally, she heard him answer softly: "Give me a few days, let me think about it."

Wen Xuan felt relieved, and smiled sincerely: "No problem. Besides, I have another idea."

"what?"

"If you continue to stay in Maixin, I will get out of the company." She shrugged helplessly, "I found it difficult for me to do well even a very ordinary accounting position in the finance department. After all, I am too It was a long time ago."

Ye Yinfeng's heart warmed up, he understood that the facts were not exactly what Wen Xuan said, she just didn't want to add obstacles to himself in Maixin.It seemed that she had spent a lot of effort in order to allow herself to stay.

Wen Xuan expressed the meaning clearly, and immediately extended the invitation again in a brisk tone: "Let's have dinner here."

Before Ye Yinfeng could speak, she hurriedly said again: "Just do me a favor, I cooked a little too much today."

Facing her earnest begging, Ye Yinfeng couldn't bear to refuse anymore.

He helped Wenxuan put the food on the table. The dinner was not rich, two stir-fried vegetables and one soup, but because of Ye Yinfeng, Wenxuan felt much happier than usual working alone.

After setting the table and chopsticks, Wenxuan went to call her daughter again, but Xiaodong refused to come out. In front of Ye Yinfeng, Wenxuan reprimanded her daughter: "Forget it, leave her alone, let's eat."

"Won't she be hungry?"

"Probably not, I ate the noodles that Xia Xia gave her just now." Speaking of this, Wen Xuan smiled sweetly, "I forgot to thank you, your secretary is very capable."

When Xia Xia was mentioned, the topic suddenly became much easier, and Ye Yinfeng made no secret of his admiration for Xia Xia.

"She is indeed very good, she is down-to-earth and smart, but these are not her greatest strengths."

He told how he rescued Xia Xia.

Wen Xuan listened intently: "I didn't expect the way you two met to be so special."

"Yeah! Since then, I have trusted this little girl. When recruiting employees, I value a person's character the most, but it is difficult to accurately measure this point during the interview stage."

Wen Xuan half-jokingly hypothesized: "I don't know if Xia Xia meets an old man who falls on the side of the road again, will he help him?"

Ye Yinfeng thought about it seriously, and said: "With her personality, she should still be able to."

The admiration and intimacy in his tone suddenly caught Wen Xuan's throat. She wanted to say something to joke, but she couldn't open her mouth after all.

It was the first time for the two of them to get along alone, maybe because of what Wen Xuan said before, Ye Yinfeng didn't feel awkward.He has always hoped to know about his cousin Ye Xiaoxiang's life away from home for the past few years. He had received some brief information from Wen Xuan before, but due to certain psychological factors, he did not take the initiative to inquire about it. Tonight seems to be a good opportunity .

"How did you meet Xiaoxiang?"

Wen Xuan was thinking about other things, she was slightly taken aback when he heard this question, and Fang said: "That was more than two years ago. At that time, I had just divorced, and I took my daughter to Lanxi, where I found her in a KTV. the job of a waiter."

Ye Yinfeng couldn't help interjecting: "Didn't you work as an accountant?"

Wen Xuan sighed: "I don't have a high degree of education, and I'm not familiar with the place in Lanxi, so it's not easy to find a job. Besides, I can't make much money as an accountant. I hope it can make Xiaodong's life better. Although the reputation of working in KTV is not very good, the income is still good.”

Ye Yinfeng stopped talking.

"That's where I met your brother. He went to sing with some friends that day. I didn't pay attention when pouring the wine and spilled the wine on a guest. Fortunately, he was there, and the guest didn't have a seizure. Then he came again A few times, she took good care of me, and slowly, we got better."

Wen Xuan glanced at him: "You don't look like your brother at all."

Ye Yinfeng smiled, he and Xiaoxiang did not seem to be related by blood in appearance, he was thin and tall, Xiaoxiang was shorter and fatter.

"You have a better temper than him." Wen Xuan regretted it as soon as she finished speaking, her face turned reddish, as if she had revealed her thoughts.

Ye Yinfeng noticed it, and felt a little embarrassed. He coughed lightly and said, "Xiaoxiang is quite kind-hearted. His temper changed with his sister-in-law, oh, after his ex-wife divorced."

"I heard him mention that matter." Wen Xuan ladled him a bowl of soup, and said, "But the one he mentioned the most is your brother."

"Oh?"

"He has always been proud of you. But then I learned that you are not brothers."

"That's right! After uncle and aunt passed away, he has been living in my house. Although we are cousins, we are no different emotionally from brothers." Ye Yinfeng's expression suddenly dimmed, "I really can't figure out how he would commit suicide .”

The smile on Wen Xuan's face also faded away, and she silently lowered her eyes.

"If it's because of money, he can come to me. It's not worth it..." He shook his head puzzled. After all, he and his cousin had been separated for five or six years, and they had gone too far.

Wen Xuan whispered: "You should understand his temper. He doesn't say anything, but he is very strong in his heart. He won't talk to you easily."

Ye Yinfeng sighed, he didn't know why, self-esteem is like a thorn in Xiaoxiang's heart, sometimes thick and sometimes thin, but it will always exist.Otherwise, he wouldn't worry about the matter of being dependent on others, and he wouldn't leave his hometown because of the shock of divorce.

When the news of Xiaoxiang's death came from Lanxi, it happened that Ye Yinfeng was in Russia to discuss business and couldn't come back in time. All funeral affairs were handled by his parents in Lanxi and Wen Xuan together. This has always been something Ye Yinfeng regretted.

And deep down, his guilt didn't stop there.

I am better than my cousin in every way, showing my sharpness everywhere, attracting attention, Xiaoxiang is indifferent on the surface, but he may not be so optimistic in his heart, he has been living in the shadow of Ye Yin's scenery, and that feeling must be uncomfortable.

"Xiaoxiang's life has been unsatisfactory, only Maixin—although it is thanks to you—he was the one who founded it anyway. If he is even a little bit successful, he started this company." Wen Xuan's words pulled Ye Yinfeng away. Returning to reality, "So, about Maixin, I'll leave it to you...for your brother's sake."

The gentle persuasion made Ye Yinfeng hard to resist, he nodded: "I will give you an answer as soon as possible."

On the way home, Ye Yinfeng was driving the car, full of thoughts.In the several conversations with Wen Xuan, each topic seemed to carry enough weight, requiring him to weigh it carefully.

go or stay?This proposition, which originally had a clear answer, suddenly became blurred and chaotic.

It's hard to look forward to a Saturday when I don't have to go to the company, Xia Xia is sleeping soundly with a quilt covering her head, Xiaochun pushes the door open and enters.

"Guo Xiaxia, it's almost nine o'clock, why don't you get up!" Xiaochun couldn't help but throw up the quilt.

Xia Xia was woken up by the alarm, and just about to grab the quilt and go back to sleep sleepily, when she suddenly smelled a seductive fragrance, her ears and eyes became clear immediately.

"Xiaochun, what delicious food did you bring?"

Xiaochun put a jar of smoked fish on the table, and grinned angrily: "Food! You have a good nose—my mother made you smoked fish in sauce."

"Wow! Your mother is so nice!"

Xia Xia was salivating, jumped out of bed quickly, took off the lid, twisted a piece, and stuffed it into her mouth, Xiaochun frowned: "Eat without brushing your teeth!"

Xia Xia turned a deaf ear: "It tastes really good! Thank you, auntie, for me!"

Xiaochun looked around: "Look at the place where you live, what's the difference between a mess and a pig's nest! Also, why don't you lock the door? I opened the door as soon as I pushed it."

Xia Xia's mouth was full of fish, and she explained vaguely: "Maybe Lili went downstairs to buy breakfast, and she will be back soon. She has always been like this, and she doesn't bother to lock the door."

"Also! When I came in, I passed the bathroom and saw a man squatting in it. I was shocked. When did a male roommate enter here?!"

"Oh, that's Lili's boyfriend."

"What a mess! Didn't you hear any messy noises at night?"

Xia Xia looked upright: "I sleep so dead, I won't wake up when the sky falls."

Xiaochun shook his head: "It's not that I said, the environment of the shared house is just bad, and you still refuse to ask you to move to live with me."

Xia Xia finished eating a piece of fish, wiped her fingers contentedly, and began to put on her clothes: "I know that you and auntie are good to me, but I can't always take advantage of you."

"Whether it's cheap or not, I didn't say it earlier, so just stay with me."

"I'm doing it for your own good." Xia Xia said with a sly look on her face, "Think about it, the two of us haven't lost any luck in the past four years of college. If we continue to waste time like this after graduation, sooner or later your mother will be in a hurry with me!"

Xiaochun was outraged.

"Don't worry, I will find a single room to live in when I get a salary increase at the end of the year."

When Xia Xia came back after washing, she saw Xiaochun sitting at the table with a magazine spread out in front of her, but her eyes didn't know where to focus.

Xia Xia pushed her: "Where are you going to play today?"

Xiaochun came back to his senses: "How about going to the lake for a ride?"

"Okay!" Xia Xia's interest was aroused, "It would be great if there were more people. I saw a group of cyclists on the road last time. There were more than 20 riders in total. It was very lively!"

"Pull it down! Look how professional their equipment is. We only have two broken bicycles, so don't be ashamed."

"What's the matter!" Xia Xia didn't care, "Isn't it just an atmosphere to play! But their cars are indeed better than ours. I heard from Xiong Wen that the speed of that kind of professional road car can reach seventy or eighty." It’s almost time to catch up with the motorcycle.”

"Hey, Xia Xia! Tell me...how does it feel to fall in love with someone?"

Xia Xia was taken aback by Xiaochun's nonsensical words, then turned around and said happily, "You, you won't really get mixed up with Xiong Wen, will you?"

"Fuck you! Who messed with that big bear!" Xiaochun, who is always full of vigor, suddenly twitched, "I met a classmate of mine in elementary school two days ago, and we had a good chat, but suddenly... anyway , that feeling is not the same as before.”

"Your elementary school classmates can recognize it, it seems that there is not much change!"

"No, of course there have been changes, but we often met in junior high school." Xiaochun looked at her expectantly, "Tell me, what does it feel like to like someone?"

"I, I have no experience!" Xia Xia scratched her fluffy short hair, feeling a bit embarrassed, "I'm just like you, have never been in a relationship before?"

"That's different!" Xiaochun seriously exposed her background, "I know there are a few boys in our class who have a crush on you, but they are all timid and have no nerve to ask you to confess. Anyway, you must be better than me in this regard."

Xia Xia scratched her head and scratched her head, but seeing her close friend's distressed expression, she could only bite the bullet and act as an emotional expert.

"I think, liking someone is just...you can think of him often, always want to be with him, and you will be happy when you see him happy. No matter what you do for him, you are happy in your heart, even if you don't do anything, as long as It's a pleasure to be with him..."

In Xia Xia's increasingly fluent narration, Ye Yinfeng's figure came out from the depths of his mind, with a clear face and a gentle expression.

Xiaochun listened suspiciously at first, but gradually, she noticed a subtle change in Xia Xia's expression, she opened her mouth unconsciously, and murmured as if facing an abyss: "It's over, it's over..."

"Huh?" Xia Xia stopped talking, looked at her carefully, and asked uncertainly, "You fell in love with her so quickly?"

"It's not about me! It's about you!" Xiaochun stared at her like a terminally ill patient, "Guo Xiaxia, I guarantee you, you must be in love with Ye Yinfeng!"

Xia Xia's face flushed immediately: "Stop talking nonsense!"

"Would you swear you didn't think of him just now?"

Xia Xia hesitated for a while, but couldn't escape the sharp eyes of his old friend, so he simply cocked his neck: "So what if I like it?"

Xiaochun sighed tut-tut: "What I said, I want you to be careful and you won't listen!"

"If you like someone, you shouldn't care about your own gains and losses. If you can control your feelings, it's not called feelings."

Xiaochun was speechless after being refuted by her, thinking that he still had a mess to sort out, and sighed bitterly: "Guo Xiaxia, why don't our frequencies be so consistent!"

Xia Xia hugged Xiaochun's neck affectionately: "Don't think too much, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge! Hey, tell me about your elementary school classmate, what does he do? What does he look like?"

Before Xia Xia finished checking her account, the phone in her bag rang loudly.She glanced at the caller ID, and hurriedly signaled Xiaochun not to speak: "My boss."

Xiaochun curled his lips when he heard it.

Xia Xia answered the phone with a pious face: "Yes, Mr. Ye! Are you at home... Shall I go now? Okay...well, good."

Xiaochun was so angry that she grinned her teeth and silently expressed her protest with the shape of her mouth, but Xia Xia had already agreed with a sweet smile.

"Then what about our bicycle tour around the lake?" Xiaochun was furious.

"Next time, next time! The boss said there is something urgent, can I not go! Okay, okay, can I treat you to Mala Tang tonight?"

"I'm really a nanny!" Xiaochun looked up to the sky and sighed, "I brought you food early in the morning. I expected you to go out with me for a day. Who would have thought that I would have to go back alone!"

Xia Xia smiled at her: "You can go to your elementary school classmate!"

When Xia Xia arrived at the company, Ye Yinfeng was busy in the office, typing and asking her without raising his head: "Is there a lot of gossip in the company recently?"

"No, there are all versions."

Ye Yinfeng smiled and said, "It's time to be clear."
