Chapter 42 Meeting Badminton

When Gu Xiayang called, Zhuo Ran was sitting in the tea room in a daze. Lin Yuan had been going to S City for training for a while because of the company's financial upgrade.Without her never-ending work, her life suddenly became lighter, which made her feel a little confused.The woman sighed slightly, and suddenly she missed the days of working overtime all day long. Life was fulfilling enough, but it was very relaxing.

That day, in Wang Peng's bar, Fang Jingdong made an agreement with her that if in the last quarter of this year, the performance of the second investment department led by her can surpass that of Ling Zhan's one, he will let her go free and never use Xi Cheng to threaten her again. she.

Exceeded?
If Fang Jingdong took the lead in finance again, what would be left for Ling Zhan.Although he didn't know the reason why he got involved with Fang Chen, this was a battle he couldn't lose.

What is she going to do?
The phone rang at this moment, it was Gu Xiayang.When they left that day, they left each other's phone numbers, and they made an appointment to practice together.

"Hello, Officer Gu." The woman's voice sounded faintly, without any emotion.Gu Xiayang only felt uncomfortable for a while. She used to be so enthusiastic and happy, and the Zhuo Ran in her memory should not be so low.

"Call me Gu Xiayang." He smiled softly: "Do you have time tonight? I have an appointment with Ye Yi and Lao Feng to play basketball. Can we play together?" He will approach her step by step, carefully, not to let her She has a chance to say no.

Will Ayi and Xiaoxiao also go?Zhuo Ran was a little moved, as if she had been busy since she came back from Sichuan and didn't have time to make an appointment with them.

Anyway, there is nothing to do, so let's go, the joy of sweating on the court has been gone for a long time. "Okay, where is your appointment? I'll be there right after get off work." The woman paused for a while, "It might be late, because I have to go home to get some equipment."

"I'll pick you up after get off work." The words were so smooth that it seemed a little urgent, so he added: "It's not easy to take a taxi at that time, so you can drive faster."

"No need, I can—" Before she finished speaking, Gu Xiayang interrupted with a chuckle: "My unit is not far from your company, so I just drop in. See you at the gate of your company at five o'clock."

Walking out of the company's gate, Zhuo Ran saw Gu Xiayang leaning against the station at a glance. Unlike that night, he was dressed very lightly, less fierce and more flamboyant, as if he was much younger all of a sudden.Seeing her walking past, the man smiled and opened the car door, his movements were natural and gentle.

"Coffee—" While driving the car, Gu Xiayang took a takeaway coffee cup from the cup holder and handed it over. "Before exercising, you can't eat anything, so let's drink something first."

Could it be such a coincidence that even the coffee was her favorite shop in the past, and so was the taste.

Could it be Ye Yi again?But she hasn't drunk this kind of mocha coffee for a long time, why did Ye Yi give him such outdated news?

"Officer Gu, it always feels like we have known each other for a long time." Looking at the scenery on both sides of the road, she said casually.

"Zuo Ran, we've seen it before." The man smiled, with a hint of mysterious temptation in his tone, seducing her curiosity.

Have they met?
"Don't tell me it was that night." She laughed, thinking he was talking about the time she was kidnapped.

"Not that day, but earlier."

earlier?when?
"About two months ago, in front of the retro bar." There are some things he won't tell her yet, such as his infatuation and waiting for many years.But the "encounter" two months ago was the beginning of this relationship.

When was that, the day of the class reunion? Why didn't she have any memory of it.Suddenly, some fragments flashed in my mind, could it be that one?
No, no, how could it be such a coincidence?
In an instant, many expressions crossed her face. She was so drunk that day that she couldn't remember anything after leaving the bar, but the fear of opening her eyes the next morning was still lingering in her heart.Even thinking about it now, I still feel inexplicably afraid.

"You were drunk that day, I happened to meet, and then—"

Zhuo Ran was surprised, was that really the case?Did she actually meet him when she was drunk that day? It was such a coincidence?
Gu Xiayang turned her head slightly, her expression was really rich, puzzled, surprised, nervous, unbelievable, worried, flustered... She must have been frightened that day, she must be very scared to wake up in a strange room after being drunk, so That's why I left without saying goodbye.

"Don't worry, I'm the people's policeman, I won't harm you." It's really strange that such a joking tone came from his mouth.Today's him seems to have lost the domineering and arrogance inherent in his body, with a trace of juvenile playfulness and rascal.

The speed of the car slowed down, and the man slowly told her what happened that night.He told her that he happened to be passing there that day and saw her squatting on the side of the road vomiting in the middle of the night. He walked over to help her up with the professionalism of the people's police, but she passed out drunk on him.Because I didn't know where her family lived at the time, I had no choice but to take her back to my home.Later, her phone kept ringing, and he saw Ye Yi's name on it.

And the next day, he just went out to buy some breakfast, but she disappeared, so she didn't see him.Gu Xiayang narrated their "encounter" both true and false, and Zhuo Ran felt her heart light up as she listened, and the haze that had been suppressing her heart finally dissipated.She was very lucky that it was him she met that night.

"Thank you so much, Gu, Xia Yang." He can be regarded as her benefactor, and the touch and gratitude to him are beyond words.Sure enough, the people's police are the cutest people.Nothing happened that night, Zhuo Ran smiled and thanked him very sincerely.

"Thank me, how do you want to thank me?" The car had already parked in front of Zhuo Ran's house, the man turned his head, his eyes bright, and asked with a smile.

The woman was taken aback, as if she didn't expect him to say that.It is said that the great kindness does not say thank you, that is a lie, she really wants to thank him well, if he hadn't picked her up out of good intentions that night, the consequences would not be the same.

But how can I thank you?

"Didn't you agree to participate in the competition with me?" He raised his eyebrows and smiled, with a kind of youthful cunning and banter on his face. "Then do your best to help me win a championship and come back."

Didn't realize he was talking about this. "Okay, I will try my best to help you win the championship." She smiled, not lightly, but genuinely and brightly.

Zhuoran, you are finally no longer reserved with me, you dodged me.That girl finally opened her heart to him.

I didn't expect to meet Wu Yilin and You Qingya in the arena.

As soon as Zhuo Ran and Gu Xiayang entered the stadium, they saw Ye Yi, Shao Jun, Fang Xiaoxiao and Feng Yu waiting there.

"Shao Jun, long time no see." It seemed that this was the first time they met after the class reunion. Seeing him, Zhuo Ran seemed a little embarrassed, after all, he and Qi Feng were colleagues.

Shao Jun didn't seem to think that much, and kept complaining to her, saying that she really did him a bad job, because she couldn't insist on sending her home that day at the class reunion, and Ye Yi almost fixed her to death.

Ye Yi pushed him, and said with a smile, "Didn't I credit you later?" If he hadn't thrown Zhuo Ran into the street, how could he have met Gu Xiayang? I was so moved to look at it. "That's already beaten me enough." He seemed to be aggrieved, looking at Zhuo Ran with accusations in his eyes.

Zhuo Ran smiled subconsciously, watching the two people slapstick, it felt like they were back in school.On the day of the class reunion, Shao Jun was obviously more mature and stable, but he didn't expect that when he saw Ayi, he would turn back to the boy who played tricks and made jokes back then.

Then, when she looked up, she saw Director Wu and You Qingya walking in together.

"Xia Yang, Feng Yu? You are here, what a coincidence." Wu Yilin saw them as soon as he entered the door. He knew Gu Xiayang and Feng Yu, and they had been drinking together a lot before.

"Assistant Zhuo—" Qing Ya seemed to be taken aback, she didn't expect to meet Zhuo Ran here, her face was slightly flushed.

They used to come to this arena often, and Gu Xiayang was not surprised to meet Wu Yilin here, but what he didn't expect was that there was You Qingya.Could it be that Lao Wu was thinking about his little secretary?This is not a good sign, he has a wife, so it's fine to go out for a drink or have fun, if he turns around and makes some real noise, then his reputation will be ruined.

Zhuo Ran looked at Qingya, and it was hard to imagine that such a quiet girl would fall into the gloomy workplace.That day she tried her best to block the wine for Ling Zhan, she thought she liked him, but she didn't expect that she would get so close to Wu Chu.

Could it be that Ling Zhan meant it?Did he intentionally let Qingya get close to Wu Yilin?Is he going to sacrifice this girl's youth and innocence just to achieve his own interests?

Ling Zhan, she thought he would be different after all...

"Since everyone knows each other, why don't we play together and make it more lively." When Gu Xiayang was drinking that day, he mentioned playing basketball, which actually aroused his interest. He has been busy with work recently, and he hasn't played for a long time.He wanted to ask them out, but when he thought that Gu Xiayang should be busy chasing women, he was too embarrassed to disturb him.For some reason, he thought of You Qingya. Ever since he finished drinking with her that day, this little girl's face was always dangling in front of his eyes, and he couldn't help but want to ask her out after work.

"Okay, let's be together, there are so many people and it's lively." Although he really wanted to be with Zhuo Ran, but it's still too early, and she would feel uncomfortable if there were only the two of them, and it would be better if there were more people.

"Miss Zhuo, don't you and Xia Yang still have a match to play? Let's just train you two today." There happened to be four men and four women present, and they could form four groups.Gu Xiayang is naturally in the group with Zhuo Ran, Fang Xiaoxiao and Feng Yu, Ye Yi and Shao Jun, he is naturally in the group with You Qingya.

"Then our three groups will take turns to play." Wu Yilin was extremely excited, Gu Xiayang, even if you are built with steel and iron, today's wheel battle will get you down.

"Old Wu, you are a bit of a bully." He still doesn't know what he is thinking, but he has lost too much in his hands before, and today he wants to use more people to regain some ground, he said yes I don't care, I'm just afraid that Zhuo Ran will be tired.

"You guys are considered a professional group, even if we play three against one, it's nothing." Wu Yilin laughed like a treacherous person. In the past, it was Gu Xiayang who repaired them. Today he relies on the fact that there are more people, so what can he do? .

"Can you?" Ye Yi also told him that Zhuo Ran really hasn't played for a long time.

"Physically, I'm fine. As for skills, I'll try my best." She was never afraid of any challenges before, but her skills have been neglected for too long, and it is difficult to restore her previous results all at once.

"It's okay, I'm here." The man smiled softly: "Old Wu, then you come first." Wu Yilin originally wanted to be the finale, but after being named so famous by Gu Xiayang, it was hard for him to stay still , the first one is the first one, even if it can't be the last straw to overwhelm that kid, it's good to press it first.In fact, Wu Yilin can be regarded as an old man on the court, and his golf skills are still good, but You Qingya obviously hindered him.

"I'm sorry, Director Wu, I'm so stupid." The woman blushed slightly, and said in a low voice. This was the Nth time that she missed the ball by mistake.She has never formally practiced badminton. It would be fine if it was a level ball, but this kind of game is professional and technical, and she can't stand it at all.

"It's okay, we're not playing games, just play with them casually." This little girl is really interesting, he has seen too many women in the workplace, and there is no one as pure and young as her.His pleasure was no longer in defeating Gu Xiayang, he just felt like being with the little woman beside him, he seemed to be back to that passionate youth again.

Zhuo Ran is also very savvy, but he must have played professionally before. Gu Xiayang suppressed Wu Yilin's offensive, and it was easy for her to fight against Fang Qingya.At the end of the first round, Wu Yilin and You Qingya lost all three games. You Qingya lowered her head at this moment, as if she had done something wrong.Wu Yilin said that he didn't care much, he was talking to Gu Xiayang and the others while walking off the field.

"Miss Zhuo, Xia Yang kept saying that you were a good player that day, but I didn't pay attention to it. I didn't expect that you are really a master." He always thought that Zhuo Ran only knew how to play, and how good he could be.As soon as he played today, he was stunned. His skills are really not boastful. His attack is swift and fierce, his defense is tight, his body moves flexibly, and more importantly, his strength is really great.

"Old Wu, this is not her real strength." The man smiled. If it was Zhuo Ran back then, he probably wouldn't have the strength to speak here now.Her game skills are really jerky a lot.It doesn't matter, he will find it with her.

"Xia Yang, you know it very well." Wu Yilin didn't pay much attention to these words, this is not his real strength, how powerful he wants to be.

Zhuo Ran didn't expect that they would cooperate so tacitly, he knew her habit of moving, and even understood the details of her every movement, so they cooperated perfectly.

"Ye Yi showed me the video of your previous game before, Zhuo Ran, I came prepared."

It seemed that he really cared about that game. "Today, I let you down." Her current level is enough if she is only playing a normal game, but if it is a professional game, it is still a lot worse.Her regress is not just a little bit.

"No, it's already good. There's still some time left for the game, let's take our time." He had already pulled her back to the court, and nothing else mattered.

"Old Feng, buddy, I'm defeated. You two will come on later, and you have to pull me down that kid Gu Xiayang." Relying on him to run and save the ball, this game was really hard.

"Old Wu, don't count on me. Those two blows of mine can only consume that kid's physical strength. We really can't play ball, but we can shoot guns." If it wasn't for creating an atmosphere for Gu Xiayang and Zhuo Ran, He doesn't know how to play the ball, he can't play this sport, he is so anxious, the more anxious you are, the more you can't catch it, and you can't use your energy, you don't know what they are laughing at. "Why don't we get CS in Dongjun Mountain one day, we are good at this." Running all over the mountains with a gun, that would not be more enjoyable than this, he suddenly suggested.

"CS?" Gu Xiayang looked at Zhuo Ran, not sure if she would like this kind of game, he said it didn't matter.

"Old Gu, don't underestimate Zhuoran, her gun shooting skills are not necessarily worse than yours." When he played CS with Zhuoran for the first time, he was also taken aback. He didn't expect her gun posture , the speed of firing the gun, and the accuracy of hitting are all terrifyingly strong.It was only later that I found out that she had stayed with Qi Feng in the army's weapons and equipment warehouse for two full years, practicing guns without doing anything else.In Qi Feng's words, the more realistic the gun, the more accurate she can shoot it.

Gu Xiayang was taken aback. He thought he knew her well enough, but he didn't expect that there was something missing. It was those years, the years when she faded out of his sight.

"Okay, am I still afraid of you?"

"Look back, I'll call some boys from the team to have a good time." Feng Yu was really excited.
