C701 Meeting Her
C701 Meeting Her
After lunch, he leaned back on the sofa and thought about those things. Unknowingly, he actually fell asleep.
These days, he had not slept well. He often slept for a while and suddenly woke up. After that, he could not sleep all night.
At this moment, he was sleeping like this, but unknowingly, he slept until the evening.
He sat up and looked at the already dark sky outside. Suddenly, he did not know what night it was.
When the phone rang, Luo Tianqi picked up the phone and answered.
It was a call from a business friend who had called him over to drink. He said that a friend had returned from overseas and introduced him.
Although Luo Tianqi wasn't in the mood, he suddenly felt a deep sense of loneliness as he sat alone in the huge space.
He answered the phone, "I'll be right there." Then, he took his jacket and car keys and left the room.
When he drove the car out of the underground garage, Luo Tianqi realized that it had snowed outside.
The snowflakes fell on the streets of the city, like a sudden dream.
His car was not fast. When he turned around, he inadvertently looked at a milk tea shop and saw a familiar figure.
Since that day at the clothing shop, Luo Tianqi had not seen Lieh Xiaoruan again.
The invitation he received was sent by Chi Jingyu. At that time, he was in a meeting, so the secretary put it away and put it at the front desk.
At that moment, Lieh Xiaoruan was wearing a white down jacket. The long down jacket at her waist made her look taller and taller. Her skin was very white, but because of the cold, her nose was a little red from the cold. She was standing at the end of the line, waiting to buy milk tea.
She really loved milk tea. This was not the first time he saw her buy milk tea. It was such a cold day. There were a few people in front of her, and she waited with anticipation, rubbing her hands from time to time.
Luo Tianqi parked the car and leaned against the road, looking at her quietly.
Fortunately, his leg had a problem with his left leg, so it did not affect his automatic car. He laughed at himself. He really looked like a cripple now.
The snowflakes above his head were still falling, and they seemed to be even bigger.
The person in front of Lieh Xiaoruan seemed to want to buy a lot of cups. Therefore, the line did not move for a long time.
Luo Tianqi saw that Lieh Xiaoruan's head and shoulders were covered with snow.
He finally could not hold it in anymore. He took an umbrella from the car, opened the door, and walked out.
Lieh Xiaoruan was going to meet a few friends that she had been very close to when she was overseas today. The place she went to was more high-end, so she was wearing a skirt and a pair of boots.
Worried that it would be cold, she casually took a long down jacket and went out.
Originally, she did not intend to buy milk tea, but when she thought about her friend saying that she wanted to drink milk tea here, she happened to pass by, so she came to buy a few cups.
At this moment, after waiting for more than ten minutes, she really couldn't stand the cold anymore.
She exhaled again and raised her head to look at the snowflakes in the sky. However, she suddenly realized that the snow had stopped. On top of her head, there was an azure umbrella.
Lieh Xiaoruan turned her head and saw the man behind her.
Luo Tianqi was wearing a light grey suit and holding an umbrella. He stood straight in front of her.
The surrounding snowflakes fluttered, and the place where he and her were seemed to be isolated by the snow.
Her throat suddenly felt dry, and she pursed her lips before saying: "Mr Tianqi, why are you here?"
Luo Tianqi looked at Lieh Xiaoruan's face, which had turned red from the cold. He held back the urge to help her cover her face and said, "I drove by and saw that you didn't have an umbrella, so I came over."
"Oh, I just bought a milk tea. I just didn't expect the person in front to buy so much, so I waited for a while." Lieh Xiaoruan smiled.
Luo Tianqi nodded and sized her up. He looked at her shrinking neck. It was completely bare, without even a scarf. He couldn't help but frown. "Why are you wearing so little?"
"There will be a gathering later." Lieh Xiaoruan smiled and said in a relaxed tone. "Sisters, don't you need to dress up better?"
"Yes." Luo Tianqi responded.
The sudden silence between the two made the atmosphere a little awkward.
Lieh Xiaoruan quickly found a topic to talk about. "Are you on your way home?"
"No, I also have friends coming over." Luo Tianqi said.
"Oh." Lieh Xiaoruan nodded and both of them fell silent again.
Until the person who bought a lot in front of them left with two big bags and the group started to move forward again.
They saw Lieh Xiaoruan in front of them. When there was only one person, Luo Tianqi hesitated for a moment and asked, "Xiaoruan, when are you going to L City?"
Lieh Xiaoruan's breath paused, and then she said, "The day after tomorrow."
"Yes." Luo Tianqi nodded.
At this time, it was Lieh Xiaoruan's turn. She ordered four cups of milk tea. When she was waiting, she turned around and asked, "Mr Tianqi, do you have time?"
Luo Tianqi's hand, which was holding the umbrella handle, unconsciously tightened. Then, he lowered his eyes and said, "I happen to have a meeting. If I can't get away, I won't be able to go over."
"Alright." Lieh Xiaoruan nodded and did not turn her head to talk to Luo Tianqi again.
When Lieh Xiaoruan finished preparing the four cups of milk tea, she took it over. Luo Tianqi held the umbrella and walked beside her. Then, he sent her to her car.
Only then did she raise her eyes and bid farewell to him. "Mr Tianqi, thank you. Goodbye."
He nodded and did not speak or leave. He stood where he was and maintained his umbrella posture. He watched her car leave.
After Lieh Xiaoruan disappeared, Luo Tianqi walked back to the car.
He sat there and only started the car after a while.
His friends had all arrived at the clubhouse.
After Luo Tianqi went up, everyone introduced their friends to him, and they started drinking together.
Luo Tianqi sat on the sofa. He had originally enjoyed the liveliness, but now, even though he was sitting in the midst of the noise with wine in his hand, he still felt that it was as if he was drinking. He was the only one in the world.
Halfway through, he seemed to be unable to bear such a feeling. He put down the cup and went to the corridor to smoke alone.
Luo Tianqi had actually smoked before when he was in school. Later, when he fell in love with Lee Xiaozi, she did not like the smell of cigarettes, so he quit smoking.
At this moment, he lit one cigarette and only took a breath. He let the cigarette butt on his fingertip and watched the white fog that kept rising out of his mind.
The lights in the corridor were not bright. In the middle of the light, he saw someone coming out from the other side of the room. It was Lieh Xiaoruan.
She was not wearing a coat. There was a black hip skirt inside, which accentuated her curvaceous figure.
As she walked, she spoke on the phone, as if she didn't notice him standing there.
After Lieh Xiaoruan arrived at the private room, she drank some wine and mixed it with milk tea. She actually felt that the wine today was exceptionally intoxicating.
Coincidentally, Gong Lingye called her and told her some things about the 'wedding'. Immediately after, she raised her eyes.
At the end of the corridor, she saw Luo Tianqi leaning against the wall with a cigarette in his hand. His face was somewhat blurred by the smoke.
Lieh Xiaoruan stopped in her tracks and remembered what Luo Tianqi had said at the milk tea shop. She said to Gong Lingye, who was still telling her about the details of the 'wedding', on the other end of the phone, "Brother, don't go that day. I will go alone. Just treat it as a vacation."
Because there had to be an audience for acting. If there was no audience, then there was no need to act.
Guess, did Tianqi go? There would be great progress tomorrow ~
