Peach Branch Bubbles - Chapter 63

After entering the university for a long time, Tao Zhi wondered if one day he would meet him on the huge campus.

Just like her and Lin Suyan, at a certain time, a certain place, the encounter happened naturally.

Girls probably do this, and I have arranged countless times in my mind what it would be like to encounter the ex-boyfriend who dumped her.

If no one is rubbing their shoulders by the side of the meeting, they simply leave, or rush up to slap him ten slaps, or greet him calmly and calmly like an old friend.

When I actually met, I said hello, but it was actually not so calm.

In the past seven years, even the face of the young man who occupied her full of eyes became blurred and unfamiliar. The smoke and stars between his fingers burned quietly, burning her fragile and tense nerves.

Tao Zhi wanted to go in.

Just when she was thinking about whether to walk away and say goodbye or just turn her head away, the wooden sliding door was opened again with a “crash” from the inside, and Li Shuangjiang’s grinning voice filled the quiet small balcony: “Boss! I’ve been standing outside for an hour! The sashimi will be eaten by us if we don’t come back—”

He was halfway through when he noticed that there was another person on the balcony. The moment he saw him clearly, he was stunned.

His mouth was still open, and for a long time, he came back to his senses.

“Brother Huai!” he yelled.

Tao Zhi shuddered in fright.

Li Shuangjiang rushed directly into the balcony, connected by a small balcony, with a red lantern that fell to the ground in the middle. He lifted the lantern and rushed up and hugged Jiang Qihuai.

“I’m **** crying! You bastard!” The big man who is about 1.8 meters tall now has red eye circles, and he pats his back vigorously with his hands. Come on, play for the buddies, right?”

He was so loud that everyone in the private room could almost hear him. Zhao Mingqi and Jiang Zhengxun rushed over after work. They heard him howling on the balcony as soon as they entered the door.

Several people stretched out their heads from inside one by one, Zhao Mingqi’s eyes widened: “Fuck me!”

He slapped Jiang Zhengxun on the back and could only say two words: “Fuck me?!”

Jiang Qihuai stretched out the hand holding the cigarette, he smiled faintly, and patted his arm with the other hand.

Li Shuangjiang released him, raised his hand and rubbed his nose and asked, “Come with a friend?”

Jiang Qihuai gave a “um”, paused, and said, “Just about to leave.”

Li Shuang nodded and asked him, “Are there any arrangements for that later?”

Tao Zhi had a bad premonition in his heart.

Without waiting for Jiang Qihuai to speak, Li Shuangjiang continued: “Didn’t you come over for a drink? Just Zhao Mingqi and us, all old acquaintances.”

The bad premonition came true.

Don’t come, don’t come, don’t come…

Tao Zhi lowered his eyes, did not look at him, and muttered silently in his heart.

The next second, Jiang Qihuai pinched the cigarette, threw it into the trash can next to it, and said lightly: “Okay.”

Tao Zhi: “…”

Haven’t seen each other for so many years! Don’t you come up and just be so familiar with it!

A little bit colder!

When Jiang Qihuai returned to the box, the people inside were eating enthusiastically.

Cheng Yi was holding a wine glass, lamenting the injustice of life.

“Sister Lin has an object, Editor-in-Chief Gu has a girl I like, Lao Lu, this idiot, I guess I will have a child soon, what about me!” Cheng Yi smashed the table angrily, “Where is my cute little object?! I’m almost thirty!”

“It’s probably the same virtue in your 80s,” Lu Jiaheng lowered his head while sending a WeChat message to the side without raising his head. “Ten minutes ago, I just finished asking the waiter for my phone number. You have a couple of partners.”

Cheng Yi pointed at him: “Isn’t this time for a bunch of sister calls in your cell phone?”

“Don’t talk nonsense, it will kill you,” Lu Jiaheng corrected him rigorously. “Besides, I used to be someone who asked me for a phone number.”

Cheng Yi was suddenly depressed. He saw Jiang Qihuai coming in, and his darkened eyes brightened again, as if the dying person saw a new life: “Director Jiang!”

Jiang Qihuai walked to the position where he had just sat, leaned over and picked up his coat.

Cheng Yi looked at him and spread his arms: “Allies! We will only depend on each other in the future, you can’t betray me!”

Jiang Qihuai withdrew back, causing Cheng Yi to rush out of his hug. He raised his eyelids, “I’m leaving now.”

“What’s the matter with you,” Cheng Yi wondered, “Isn’t this just eaten?”

Jiang Qihuai got up and walked to the door: “You guys eat.”

He had his handle by the door, and just about to open the sliding door, he turned his head and looked at Lu Jiaheng: “Don’t come out.”

Lu Jiaheng raised his eyebrows: “Am I sleeping here today?”

Jiang Qihuai ignored him.

With two sounds of “wow”, the box sliding door was opened and closed.

Cheng Yi looked at the direction of the door, but still didn’t react: “What does he mean by not letting you out?”

“I’m afraid I will be seen by acquaintances.” Lu Jiaheng poured a glass of wine and said leisurely.

Cheng Yi: “What does this mean?”

Lu Jiaheng looked at him, and suddenly felt compassion for the mentally retarded. He called him: “Old Cheng.”

Cheng Yi: “Huh?”

“Your ally is going to be gone,” Lu Jiaheng said earnestly.

Cheng Yi: “Huh??”

Tao Zhi pinched his chopsticks, holding the last piece of salmon sashimi in his head.

She watched her nose, nose, mouth, mouth, and heart, eating seriously and attentively, as if Zhao Mingqi, who was drinking dragons and phoenixes on the other side, did not exist.

Li Shuangjiang was hooking Jiang Huai’s neck to clink glasses with him. Tao Zhi sometimes felt that the friendship between men is really simple and magical. No matter how many years they haven’t seen each other or how long they haven’t been in touch, they only need two glasses of wine to start dating again. .

Li Shuangjiang never saw him drunk when he was in high school. After work, he was tempered by a client on the wine table. He was obviously good at drinking. Zhao Mingqi was already lying next to him. He was still like a okay person.

And Jiang Qihuai.

Tao Zhi silently glanced at his filled wine glass. This person hasn’t stopped since sitting down.

“By the way, what are you doing now?” Li Shuangjiang asked.

Jiang Qihuai squeezed the small sake cup with his fingers: “Investment.”

“Fuck, then you’re not rich anymore,” Li Shuangjiang waved his hand, “I don’t know anything about this. You will push two stocks for your brother by then.”

Tao Zhi raised his eyes unexpectedly.

Jiang Qihuai doesn’t seem to be a person who can do this. He has always been too lazy to deal with people. He only likes to bury his head and do his own things. She thought he would choose engineering research type jobs.

As soon as she looked up, she was facing the sight of the person opposite.

Whether it was coincidence or accident, he was looking at her when she looked at him. Under the bright light in the room, his eyes were still amber with a cold feeling, and he looked at people with a natural indifference and alienation.

Tao Zhi couldn’t help but stared at him for a few seconds, then moved his eyes lightly away, casually picking out a few udon noodles from the shouxi pot.

This sukiyaki pot has been boiled for a long time, and the soup is completely immersed in the udon noodles, and the sweet taste is directed at the tongue and throat.

Even a lover like her, who loves her life, feels that the taste is a bit awkward.

Tao Zhi bit the tip of his tongue, poured a cup of lemonade and poured it down, suppressing the over-rich salty and sweet taste.

Sure enough, there are some things, but they can’t be left for too long.

This meal was eaten to the fullest. Before parting, Li Shuangjiang asked for Jiang Qihuai’s home address with Zhao Mingqi, who was already in a coma.

“If you dare to play missing with Lao Tzu this time, I went straight to your house and broke the door.” He warned.

Tao Zhi stood aside and rolled his eyes.

What’s the use of you smashing his house?

This person can move directly.

Li Shuangjiang and the others drank, dropped the taxi and left. Fu Xiling was going home on weekends. Before leaving, she hesitated and said to Tao Zhi, “Or I can go back tomorrow.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Shuangjiang dragged her by the collar and dragged the person away: “Go! Lingmei, Brother Li will take you home along the way!”

He carried two people in one hand and jumped into the car like a monkey, as fast as a criminal could not wait to flee the scene of the crime.

When Tao Zhi reacted, only taxi exhaust was left for her.

And the predecessor standing next to him.

It was close to twelve o’clock, and the outdoor temperature dropped a few degrees. Tao Zhi raised his hand and pulled the scarf upwards, then stuffed his hand into his coat pocket.

After a pause, he said politely: “Then I will go now.”

The scarlet scarf made her skin white and almost transparent. Jiang Qihuai watched her habitually pull the scarf to cover her chin. For a moment, he was in a daze. He paused and said, “It’s too late, I’ll take you back.” “

These words were so familiar that Tao Zhi’s nerves were almost strained all night.

On which winter night, in which warm and small bedroom, the boy stayed beside her and said the same thing.

Tao Zhi curled up her fingers in her pocket. She did not show any emotion on her face. She leaned sideways on the wooden door frame of the Japanese food shop and said lazily, “No, I called the car.”

Jiang Qihuai retracted his hand that was about to stop the car, nodded, and replied with kindness: “Should you follow the way?”

Tao Zhi: “…”

Are you really Jiang Qihuai!

Hurry up and show your true shape! You cheeky hacking dog!

Tao Zhi took a deep breath, raised his head, and called him: “Jiang Qihuai.”

“As for me, I am not a person who likes to be friends after breaking up with my ex-boyfriend. I am very happy to meet you tonight. I am also very pleased to see that you are doing well now. The old classmates have a meal together. No need.”

She calmly said: “Let’s keep a little distance, okay?”

This is clear and clear, and even a bit of self-sufficient meaning. Tao Zhi didn’t want him to misunderstand him, and added: “Although I know you don’t mean anything else, you have to avoid suspicion, right.”

Jiang Qihuai didn’t speak, but looked at her with low eyes.

The woman leaned against the door, and the warm light of the Japanese food shop enveloped her white and delicate face, her raised eyes were aggressive and beautiful, and her gaze was sloppy and cold.

She seems to have changed a lot, and it does not seem to have changed.

The girl who used to be afraid of getting cold in autumn and would wear long trousers now wears only a pair of pencil trousers under her coat, showing a straight and slender ankle, but still likes red scarves, still likes to eat sweets, and still does not bother to hide any emotions.

If you like it, you will get close, if you hate it, you will refuse. It is straightforward and decisive.

The long silence was broken by the creaking sound of the car pressing on the snow on the road. A black car slowly stopped by the roadside. Almost at the same time, Tao Zhi’s mobile phone rang.

She took out her mobile phone and picked it up, without looking at the person in front of her, she straightened up and walked towards the car.

The moment he passed by, Tao Zhi’s arm was suddenly grabbed.

Her steps were taken to a halt.

The night breeze was blowing up and falling snow, Jiang Qihuai was carrying a light, his eyebrows were hidden in the darkness, his emotions could not be clearly seen, and his voice was tight and hoarse: “What if I have?”

Tao Zhi was stunned for a moment, without reacting for a while, she turned her head back: “What?”

Jiang Qihuai held her wrist with great strength, but cautiously, like a drowning man, desperately grasped the last driftwood floating on the sea.

“Something else.” He whispered.
