When will the fog clear

Chapter 21
It was Lin Miao's birthday in a blink of an eye. Her parents called her early in the morning and said that they had prepared a red envelope for her, and asked her to go eat delicious food with her friends first, and make it up for her when she got home.

Lin Miao was happy and wanted to cry.Just to love her parents, no matter how hard it is, she has to go on.

It's just birthdays, there are every year, Lin Miao feels that this year is nothing special, it's just another year older.

She hadn't seen Chen Jiting for more than a week, and she was relieved not to have to face him often, and also selfishly thought that it would be best to fade away slowly like this, so that he would completely forget that she was the only one.

She didn't even know that there was something special about herself that was worth his painstaking efforts.She was right when she said they were "enemies".But this was an extravagant wish. She answered Lu Yi's long-distance call at noon, saying that their meeting period was over and Chen Jizhen would be back soon.

Lu Yi would regularly inform Lin Miao of Chen Jiti's whereabouts, which was naturally something Chen Jiti ordered, but Lin Miao didn't expect to know.She went to work during the day, and at night she went to a buffet by herself to celebrate. When she came back and passed by a small flower shop, she suddenly wanted to buy a bouquet of flowers for herself. There were not many varieties in the shop. I asked for a pot of green radishes.

The green feeling is full of vitality.

The clerk told her that green radish represents toughness, kindness, and happiness.

happiness?Is there another word?
Lin Miao carried the bag and walked slowly towards her house.

Every day is the same way.

But when she turned the corner and entered the alley, she subconsciously felt that someone was waiting in the dark. She heard that the neighborhood was not very peaceful at night, and some people specially attacked single women.She came and went alone for several years, and she didn't feel scared when she heard it. There are good and evil in society.

But it was different when she actually met her. She immediately took a few steps back, holding the pot of green radish in her hand, ready to run in the next second.

The other party spoke first, with a soft and gentle voice: "Lin Miao, don't be afraid, it's me."

Hearing that familiar yet unfamiliar voice, Lin Miao was like a deflated ball, losing all her strength in vain.Unexpectedly, Gu Huai found this place.

"What are you doing here?" Lin Miao tried to keep her voice as cold and ruthless as possible, "We have no reason to meet."

"Miaomiao, I just..." Seeing that she was about to leave, Gu Huai had no choice but to hold her hand. Maybe he felt that his tone and behavior were wrong, so he paused, "I just heard Dade mention you and said you go He didn't want to say any more when he went to his hospital, what do you need to see a doctor for?"

"I didn't let him say it. Thank you for your concern. I'm fine." When we met again, Lin Miao still said the same thing.

Gu Huai smiled wryly: "Lin Miao, I've become a doctor too." If it's very good, why did he go to the hospital.

"Yes, you are already a doctor." Lin Miao murmured softly.She didn't even have time to celebrate with him.

Today should be a happy day, but at this moment, the night is cold, but his appearance coincides with the warmth in her memory.

No provocative words.She wanted to cry again.Recently, there have been more and more tears, and I have become more and more weak and incompetent.

Lin Miao broke away from his hand, and asked coldly, "What else do you want to ask?" Seeing that he was silent and just looking at her fixedly, she pursed her lips, "Go back if you have nothing to do. Come again." If she had any extravagant hopes before, but now they don't, she dare not have them.

Gu Huai handed her a box placed on the stone pier, and said softly, "This is for you."

Lin Miao forced herself not to look or listen, but she couldn't help but take a look at it. It was a beautiful cake box. Yes, today was her birthday.He still remembers it.Maybe everyone has not forgotten?But what's the point of that.

Gu Huai, it's already too late.

Lin Miao gritted her teeth, snatched the box from his hand and threw it on the street. The delicate and delicious cake was smashed badly and mixed with the muddy vegetable leaves on the ground.Gu Huai's expression changed and he clenched his fists.

Lin Miao didn't care what he thought, turned around and walked into the alley.

What he didn't expect was that Gu Huai, who had always been a self-controlled gentleman, who hadn't been in contact with her for so many years, suddenly rushed from behind her and hugged her.It's not joy, it's not arrogance, and it's not Chen Jiti's kind of domineering.

"Miaomiao...Miaomiao..."

Lin Miao's whole body seemed to be frozen in ice and snow, unable to move.

My mind went back to the year when I first met.His name is Gu Huai, her name is Lin Miao, both of them have water in their names, she thought he was a naughty person, and if she wanted to call him "Bad Water", he threatened to call her "Sanshui". He smiled and changed his words to call her Miaomiao too intimate.But he refused to change it.

As everyone knows, it is not far from the opposite side.

The air conditioner was turned on in the car, but the driver still felt profusely sweating. He was not blind, and naturally saw the man and woman hugging each other intimately at the entrance of the alley.Mr. Chen, who was sitting in the back, remained silent.He swallowed nervously, if he didn't dare to move, he would have wanted to get out of the car and warn those two people who didn't know how to measure.By the way, this Ms. Lin is really daring. She is not satisfied with such an outstanding man as Mr. Chen, and she even stepped on two boats under his nose.This is enough.

Chen Jizhen in the back was leaning on the leather seat, his eyes seemed to be looking out of the window, but he didn't seem to be.

He held a heart-shaped royal blue velvet box in his hand, and his fingers unconsciously opened and closed it, making a sound when it closed.

With streetlights, I could vaguely see what was inside—a matching brooch and necklace.It looks like a musical note, the head of the letter is covered with dazzling diamonds, the stem is made of platinum, and the tail of the letter is made of seawater beads like a small light bulb.The design of the whole set is cute and elegant, especially the few seawater beads, which are top-level beads with almost no growth pattern.

Chen Jizhen took a fancy to this set of styles at a glance, and he thought it matched Lin Miao very well.She is like a pearl, and she loves music so much.When he raised his eyes again, Gu Huai had already left, and Lin Miao had also disappeared before his eyes.But he went to Europe for a week of meetings, came back on purpose, and came here first without going anywhere, not to see these things.

Lin Miao, what do you think I want to do with you?
Lin Miao once compared the relationship between her and Gu Huai to lemonade. It was a little sour at first, but it gradually tasted sweet, but after a long time, it became bitter.

Because they failed to get together in the end, and the sweet memories were also bitter, so she didn't want to meet him again.

And the relationship between her and Chen Jizhen is like wine, strong liquor, it looks colorless and mellow, but in fact it is spicy and overbearing, thinking that it's okay to touch it, but in fact it's hard to get rid of it, once you get into it, you can't avoid it.You never know what the person is going to do next, or what you're trying to stop him from doing.He is obviously so bossy, and he claims to be a patient person, but his patience comes and goes quickly.

Like now.

Early in the morning, Lin Miao's dwelling welcomed a group of people.She hasn't slept well in the past few days, and now she is woken up even on her rest day. She only feels a splitting headache, squinting her eyes and looking at Lu Yi who is standing at the door with a bad complexion.It's not surprising that he knew that he lived here, but how many people did he bring with him at this time?It was almost impossible to stand in the narrow corridor.

Lu Yi greeted her with a smile: "Ms. Lin, good morning."

"Mr. Lu, good morning." Lin Miao took two steps back and politely invited him in, "Excuse me, is this..."

Lu Yi still smiled: "Mr. Chen ordered me to help you move. I hired a professional moving company. If you want to pack, or need to move, just let them do it."

Lin Miao's brows furrowed immediately, and her voice became cold: "I don't understand what you're saying, I never said I'm going to move, I'm living here well, and the contract doesn't expire until next year, don't worry about it. "

"You will need my help, don't worry, you will know in a while." Lu Yi didn't change his face, as if he had something to rely on.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Lin Miao's cell phone to ring. She looked at the incoming call hesitantly and picked it up. She started to "hmm" a few times, turned sideways and walked aside to talk, but her expression became uglier as she got closer to the back. Looking back at Lu Yi who was still standing upright.If there was warmth in the eyes, Lu Yi would have been burned to ashes by her gaze.

The landlord told Lin Miao on the phone that he would take back the house and give it to a nephew who came from his hometown to apply for a job. Lin Miao would refund all the rent that Lin Miao had already paid, and would pay for another three months according to the contract. The condition was that She has to move in two days.No matter how good-tempered Lin Miao was, she couldn't stand the bad news. She just renewed her contract with the landlord not long ago. How could she close the house so suddenly?And Lu Yi just brought someone here to pretend to move her, and the landlord's call came without saying a word, could it be a coincidence?Certainly not.

Lin Miao stared at Lu Yi fiercely, her tone couldn't get better: "You guys made the landlord do this?" She was so angry that she endured and endured, retreated and retreated, but she still got this result.

Chen Jizhen is too bully.

"How can it? This is the landlord's house. We can't interfere with what he wants. Although he is not very kind, we can't do anything to him. But don't worry too much. Mr. Chen will tell me as soon as he knows the news Came here to help you move."

A three-year-old kid wouldn't believe this. Lin Miao gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, wishing to hit Lu Yi in the face, but she knew that he only did what Chen Jizhen wanted, so she was immediately discouraged.Seeing that she was silent, a lot of arguments that Lu Yi had thought up a long time ago were useless. He thought for a while and persuaded: "Looking at the recent news, the security around here is not very good. Miss Lin took this opportunity to move out. It's also a good thing, Mr. Chen is very concerned about you."

"Thank you for his concern. I'm on a business trip to Europe, and I'm still thinking about it in my busy schedule." Lin Miao rubbed her temples, and said in a calm voice, "Let them go, I will find a place to move, Don't bother."

Lu Yi was a little surprised: "Haven't you met Mr. Chen? He came back a long time ago. He should have arrived at night on Tuesday. He didn't attend a reception. He had to rush back. I thought you... "He swallowed the second half of the sentence alive.

Tuesday?Lin Miao was taken aback for a moment. It happened to be her birthday, but he never contacted her. She didn't even know he was back.

"Thank you for telling me, please go first." She couldn't calm down yet, and needed time to straighten things out.

Lu Yi looked embarrassed, and after a few moments of deliberation, he said: "Miss Lin, let's put it this way, in fact, I still have to come if you move again, why bother? You should... understand what I mean, right?"

As long as his boss wanted it, it was impossible for Lin Miao to find a house.

"I can't do it even if I don't want to, can I?" Lin Miao laughed angrily.

"Hey, don't get me wrong. I mean that the place you are looking for in a hurry may not be suitable. It's better to go to Mr. Chen...it's better to wait for Mr. Chen to arrange it for you. It's not the best and it's not too bad." Lu Yi It's a heartbreaker, it's not easy to make a living these days.But what he didn't understand was Lin Miao's attitude. It is said that nine and a half out of ten women would be fascinated by a handsome and wealthy man like his boss, right?How many women wanted to post it upside down, but his boss didn't even look at it, so why did he just like her who is so reckless?Could it be that there is no fun?
Hearing this, Lin Miao's face turned pale and pale, and after a long silence, he said, "How does he want me to move?"

It seemed that she finally figured it out and gave in, Lu Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, Lin Miao didn't have many things. In the past few years, she had changed several residences one after another, and all her things were few and tidy, and almost all the home appliances and furniture belonged to the landlord.Even clothes, according to Lu Yi, there is no need to take them away, except for valuables, others can be repurchased.Needless to say, this must also be what Chen Jiting meant.

Lin Miao still packed a few big boxes and watched those people move away one after another. She sat on the sofa with a dazed expression.

When she used to live in the basement, the light was very dark and humid, and she had to take the clothes to the upper floor to dry in the aisle where people came and went, and she only dared to use a hair dryer to dry her underwear.The places I moved to later were also narrow, and some of them couldn't even fit the sofa.

When she moved here, she bought the current sofa, no matter how tired she is every day, she feels happy when she returns home and lies here watching TV, as if there is nothing she wants to keep that can be kept.

After moving in two or three, Lu Yi couldn't help urging Lin Miao: "Miss Lin? The car is downstairs, let's go."

Lin Miao stood up numbly and walked out of the narrow corridor. The door of the next room was open. The young couple was having breakfast and watching TV. When she went downstairs, she heard the woman say bitterly: " Look at the man's ability, he just moved here and then moved away, look at you, how many years have I lived in this corner with you?"

The man roared viciously: "So what? You can follow if you have the ability?"

"Okay, I'm really gone, don't regret crying and calling your mother..."

Gradually it became inaudible.

As Lin Miao expected, Lu Yi sent her to Chen Jizhen's one-floor duplex apartment. He wanted someone to pack her luggage for her, but she refused.Lu Yi was very polite and courteous before and after, without any contempt on his face, but there was a hurdle in Lin Miao's heart that he couldn't get over - the relationship between her and Chen Jizhen was not normal.No confidence.

Although it wasn't her first time here, she wasn't familiar with it either.

The first floor is the living room, kitchen, and a not-so-small home theater. The second floor is the master bedroom, a vacant guest room, and... Chen Jizhen's study room. Please come out with a good tone.

Lin Miao didn't know what to do.

At this moment, the door "ticked" and Chen Jiting entered, with a white towel hanging around his neck and sweat dripping from his forehead hair, as if he had just returned from a run.He was stunned when he saw her, and then he curled his lips lightly: "It's here so soon? I thought it would be noon." As he spoke, he glanced at the boxes on the ground, wiped his sweat and went to her side, bowed down I couldn't help but want to kiss her.

Lin Miao dodged, and seeing his face darken, she lowered her eyes and pushed his chest and said, "Go and wash it first, it's easy to catch a cold when you sweat." Her tone seemed to be concerned about him, but Chen Jizhen's His eyes were still cold, he remembered that on her birthday, Gu Huai hugged her impulsively, but she did not refuse.

Some things taste better after comparison. For Chen Jiting, this taste is fresh but uncomfortable.

So he still kissed her lips, and she refused to open, so he bit her heartily, penetrating, sucking, and devouring as he wished.Spare no effort, let her remember herself and everything he brought her over and over again.

When Lin Miao came back to her senses, she was panting, and suddenly there was a coolness on her neck, and there was an extra necklace.

Only then did Chen Jitang slowly let her go upstairs to take a bath. Lin Miao looked at her neck in the mirror and was fascinated again.

A beautiful note pendant.

Just now Chen Jizhen whispered on her lips, saying that this was a birthday present for her, and that he had ordered a piano for her from Germany, and that he planned to hire someone to decorate the upstairs guest room as her composition room.Say he treats her well, it looks good, say he treats her badly, it's really bad.It seems that she saw what she was going to say, and blocked her mouth in advance. She still wanted to live in the guest room, which was impossible.

Boyfriend relationship?Lover relationship?In fact, she thought countless times, anyway, she didn't have a good reputation for a long time. She lived with him and lived with him. At worst, there was always something beyond his reach. Whether he wanted revenge or liked it, she had nothing to do with connection.It's a pity that she still has something to cherish in her heart, and he just saw this in her.Planning cannot be done in a hurry.

There was a luncheon banquet that Chen Jizhen had to attend. After he showered and changed, Lin Miao was still in a daze in the living room. He went to touch her hair and asked her if she wanted to go with her.

Lin Miao shook her head and refused: "It's a mess here, I'll clean it up later."

It was rare for Chen Jizhen not to force her, he suddenly remembered that it was not suitable for her to appear there, because his mother would also be there.

After thinking about it, he told her the phone number of the housekeeping aunt, and if necessary, he could call her up to help pack things and cook for her by the way.
