We are passersby from now on

Chapter 34

Three or four chapters

Lu Ran suddenly held his breath, quietly waiting for the next answer.

Before Han Moyan could answer, it was still Zhuang Jing's voice: "I don't want to force you to answer, I just want you to face up to yourself. Marrying a woman you don't love is not only irresponsible to yourself, but also irresponsible to another woman." Human irresponsibility..."

"Have you said enough?" Han Moyan interrupted coldly.

Zhuang Jing seemed to pause, but she was not angry. Instead, she smiled slightly: "Are you afraid to listen to me?"

"Zhuang Jing, isn't it too ridiculous for you to come to talk to me about love or not? You chose to leave at that time, so no matter who I marry now, it has nothing to do with you. You were not there when I was most difficult, and I was alone You were not there when you were fighting, so why are you showing up now, do you want to get a share of my property?"

"Then let me tell you, it's impossible."

Han Moyan stood up to leave, but Zhuang Jing suddenly grabbed his hand, her straight and smooth black hair drooped down to cover her expression, her voice seemed to be choked with sobs: "I'm not doing it for money...I haven't done it long ago. You are short of money, why don't you believe it?"

"Remember what you told me before you left, you don't care about that opportunity at all, you only care about me. Will I be cheated a second time?"

Withdrawing his hand from Zhuang Jing mercilessly, Han Moyan made great strides to go out.

"I didn't lie to you." Zhuang Jing suddenly looked up at Han Moyan, "I really don't care about that opportunity at all, if it's not for my family..."

"To shut up."

"Ah Yan, you were not like this in the past."

Han Moyan's voice was cold: "Thank you."

Not long after he left, Zhuang Jing also picked up her bag and walked out.

Lu Ran didn't know how long she stood there. Han Moyan simply rejected Zhuang Jing. She should feel happy, but... the frustration became more and more obvious. Han Moyan's rare mood swings and Han Moyan's anger belonged only to that woman .

Only then did I realize that the happiness that I thought was close at hand can become so illusory in an instant.

Slowly loosening his clenched hands, Lu Ran was about to turn around and walk back when someone handed him a handkerchief.

A white cloth handkerchief with a checkered pattern. Few people use handkerchiefs in this day and age. Lu Ran was taken aback, facing Xiang Yan's serious face: "Do you need it?" He asked her.

Lu Ran slowly pushed away the handkerchief and smiled: "I didn't cry, no need."

It was also at this time that Lu Ran remembered that she seemed to be buying Xiang Yan a birthday present just now, but unfortunately...

After hesitant to speak for a while, Xiang Yan said, "Then I'll take you back."

"it is good."

Sitting quietly in the car, Lu Ran reached into his bag to touch a piece of xylitol, but suddenly touched a hard card.

her wedding invitation.

The car stopped in front of the roadblock, Xiang Yan stopped, rolled down the window to look at it, and said, "There seems to be an accident ahead, I'll take a detour, it may take a little longer."

The cars in the back had all retreated, leaving only one or two solitary cars, Lu Ran said softly, "Wait a minute."

"Ok?"

"This is for you, I hope it will come by then."

"what is this?"

No one was urging, and Xiang Yan was not in a hurry. He turned on the car light, took a look, was stunned, and only slowly uttered two words: "Married?"

Lu Ran nodded and didn't want to say anything more.

Xiang Yan put the invitation in the front cabinet of the car, turned on the reverse lights, and turned the steering wheel vigorously.

The car body turned 180 degrees in an almost exaggerated posture, almost hitting a utility pole not far away, but after turning, Xiang Yan stopped the car again.

"You really intend to marry him, even when there is another person in his heart?"

Lu Ran twitched the corners of her mouth twice, but couldn't force a smile. She just said lightly: "If you came here to teach, forget it, the matter is a foregone conclusion."

"Is it really good to push yourself to a dead end?"

Xiang Yan's voice suddenly became softer, with a hint of self-mockery or trance: "You always like to push everything to the limit, isn't it tiring?"

Tired, how could I not be tired.

It's just that I've been tired for so many years and I've already gotten used to it.

The numb mask on her face was getting thicker and thicker until she could no longer peel it off, as if she had always been like this, cold and strict, precise and precise, she used to think that this was what she had to pay to achieve her goal, just like her crazy tutoring for half a year, Abandon everything... But when everything comes true, you realize that sometimes what you get may not be what you thought. Compared with cold positions, feelings are too much uncontrollable and too powerless...

When he woke up, Lu Ran found that he was propping his forehead, and there was light laughter in his ears, but it was worse than crying.

"Can I run away from marriage at this time?"

Knowing that Lu Ran could not be persuaded, Xiang Yan pursed his lips and drove without saying a word.

Lu Ran lowered her head and half closed her eyes.

After an unknown amount of time, the car stopped again.

Lu Ran yawned lightly, opened the door and got out of the car, but was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.

The car didn't stop at Lu's house, but in the middle of a bridge.

The position where she came down was just overlooking the entire river, and she could even have a panoramic view of the colorful city decorated with neon lights.

There is a comfortable river breeze on the sparkling river. Take a deep breath and you can smell a little salty smell. The real thing seems to be within reach. Looking around, there is an endless water surface, which extends endlessly to the city. The edge is intoxicated by the colorful night glow.

It was getting late, and there were very few passing cars on the bridge, and occasionally there were only passing by in a flash.

Lu Ran held on to the railing, let the wind mess her hair, moved her lips and said, "Xiang Yan, you are parking illegally."

Xiang Yan answered quickly: "If you like it, what does it matter if you break the rules?"

Such a willful answer made Lu Ran laugh.

Leaning his back against the railing, Xiang Yan looked sideways at Lu Ran, his slender eyes were complicated and indescribable for a moment, and finally turned into a shallow smile: "You finally smiled. I really miss you at that time , self-willed, bold, daring to love, daring to hate..."

Lu Ran looked at the criss-crossing neon lights in a pool, raised his lips, and his voice was scattered in the river wind, barely audible.

"I miss it too..." I miss it very much...

*******************************************************************************
With the sound of firecrackers, the Spring Festival is coming as scheduled. There are not many relatives in the Lu family. After a year, Lu Ran is not too hard.

Originally, this time should be the time when Lu's mother was going to find a warm city in the southern hemisphere for vacation, but obviously she was more interested in Lu Ran's wedding, probably because her wedding was arranged by Lu Ran's grandma, so this wedding Mama Lu seems to be doing it for herself, striving for perfection in every detail from the champagne cake to the hotel process. Mama Lu also specially designed a bunch of wedding methods such as hot air balloons and yachts, but these proposals that do not conform to the solar terms are very fast. was rejected.

For the rest of the time, Han Moyan seemed to be the only one.

The Han family is even rarer. There are only Han Moyan and Han Sen in this generation. Han Sen is busier than Han Moyan. In fact, Lu Ran has never seen Han Moyan celebrate the so-called Spring Festival. People can't understand being busy, and it seems that only in this way can one feel fulfilled.

It's just that after that day, seeing Han Moyan and Lu Ran always felt an indescribable feeling.

She believed in this man. Everything Han Moyan said was the truth. He didn't bother to lie, and even at the negotiating table, he never only talked about statistics.

But there is always a person between them.

Quietly put the coffee cup on Han Moyan's desk, Han Moyan raised his head, and saw Lu Ran's slightly tired face.

After taking the coffee and taking a sip, he thought about it and asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"

"No." It was Lu Ran's faint smile that responded to Han Moyan.

"If you're tired, you don't have to come and accompany me."

During the annual holiday, there was no one else in the company except the guard. Han Sen didn't show up after having a so-called New Year's Eve dinner with him. Every day can be a vacation, but the impulse six years ago has become a habit now. At that time, he chose to use work to numb his life, but now he finds that he can't do without it.

Because he didn't know what he could do without him.

He doesn't even know whether he loves Zhuang Jing or not. He can't face Zhuang Jing calmly because whenever he sees that woman, he will think of that stupid past.

How deep is the love that will not be wiped out in the pain day after day?
At least he couldn't.

He couldn't treat Zhuang Jing as an ordinary old friend, but he couldn't put her in the position of deep love anymore.

Lu Ran held his coffee cup, leaned against the door frame, and smiled softly: "It's okay, I'm fine anyway, is there anything I can do?"

She tried to laugh as indifferently as possible.

However, Han Moyan suddenly remembered that when she first met Lu Ran, she said "I am a new assistant, my name is Lu Ran, please advise me", although she tried her best to appear sincere, she still couldn't help showing her How much doesn't matter.

In fact, at that time, he wanted to make things difficult for her.

A perfect family, a smooth life experience, a good education, and she has no fear because she has not been hit, so she can be confident enough to show off but don't care.

Over the years, he is not the only one who has changed subtly.

It seems that there is another person who has been changing with him, just to adapt to him.

Pushing the document to Lu Ran, Han Moyan lowered his head and took another sip. The steam from the hot coffee sprayed on his black-rimmed glasses, forming a misty white mist that could not see the distance clearly, and also covered the dim eyes under the glasses. .

With Lu Ran around, Han Moyan's efficiency has improved a lot. He was originally a tacit partner, and he almost talked nonsense when doing things.

As time flies by, soon the wedding is approaching.

At this time, Lu Ran saw that woman alone for the first time. She didn't know whether Zhuang Jing wanted to see her on purpose or just a chance encounter. Anyway, it didn't matter at all.

Because she wanted to see her too.

Lu Ran really wanted to know, how did Zhuang Jing be so shameless?
