belated love

Chapter 23 Life, no possibility

If she hadn't appeared, would it be possible for Lu Beicheng to fall in love with her, Su Xinnian, after being together for a long time?

Which girl doesn't long to be a gentle flower, but in the end reality forces them to grow thorns, add edges, and become sharp.If she had always been the one who was protected by him, how could she become the person she is now, wanting to take revenge and retaliate in kind?

"Lu Beicheng, can we have a nice talk?" Su Xi young said softly.

I don't know whether her tone was too gentle, or whether the gentle and lingering atmosphere still lingered in the air. Lu Beicheng's mood was very calm, even a little warm, so he nodded in agreement, "Yes."

"How...how did you meet Bai Yingying?" Su Xinnian was afraid that he would not tell, so he added: "I just want to know."

It's weird to discuss this.

Lu Beicheng was silent for a while before speaking slowly. "The first time we met was at an art exhibition in Nancheng. We accidentally stood in front of the same painting, so we casually chatted a few words about our views on that painting. Unexpectedly, we had the same ideas. I kind of met each other. I talked a little more about my feeling of being a close friend, and also discussed a few paintings one after another.”

Bosom friend?What a great first impression.

Su Xinnian was stunned and said nothing.

Lu Beicheng paused for a few seconds, then continued: "That was a long time ago, and we met later, in the design department of my company, and she became my employee by coincidence. I didn't recognize her at first, after all A long time passed, and later I saw her works and had a conversation, and then I recalled the scene of our first encounter."

"What a coincidence." Is this fate?
Su Xinnian's voice was slightly hoarse, and his throat felt a little sour.

Maybe this is the rhythm and reaction of love. It turns out that what she and Lu Beicheng lacked was not only a good beginning, but also the process of moving forward side by side and good communication.

Lu Beicheng did not continue.

Su Xinnian saw that he was silent for a long time without continuing, so he turned around and asked, "Then what? Are you in love like this?"

She had never been in love before, so she fell in love with Lu Beicheng, and she still loves him now.She has never tasted the beauty and sweetness in love. All she has tasted is bitterness and pain.She didn't know what true love was like, how two people in love came together, and how they fell in love with each other.

She was curious.

"No." Lu Beicheng shook his head, "At that time, I just thought she was a woman with some insights. What follows... do you still want to hear it?"

"Listen, I want to understand where I lost." Su Xinnian replied in a low voice.

Lu Beicheng pursed his thin lips lightly and continued for a while.

"It was the annual meeting at that time, I went to attend, drank a lot of wine, Bai Yingying took the initiative to send me up to rest, and then... I got drunk and forced her." When Lu Beicheng said this, his face was full. Embarrassment appeared on his face. When he woke up in the morning, all he saw was a bloodstain on the bed and clothes scattered on the floor beside the bed. He immediately felt that something was wrong.

After asking the attendants outside, I learned that it was Bai Yingying who sent him up that night.

He has always had a good impression of Bai Yingying, but it was just a good impression. His subsequent development was based on good impression and responsibility, and then he moved forward step by step.

Later, when he learned that Bai Yingying was pathologically frigid, he felt even more guilty about what happened that night.

Su Xi Nian listened blankly and suddenly froze.

"Annual meeting? Last year?

Lu Beicheng nodded slightly, "Yes."

This should be the first such in-depth communication between them. He even told her about the process between himself and Bai Yingying. Before that, he never thought that he would have such a conversation with Su Xinnian.

After the lingering, talking about another woman together... This is so weird.

Su Xi Nian fell silent.

Her body was trembling slightly, and her eyes were full of disbelief.

That night... that night... was obviously her first night with Lu Beicheng!

I still remember last year's annual meeting, which happened to be her birthday. She specially prepared cakes and candles, cooked herself a large table of sumptuous dishes, and then waited for him to come back.

She didn't long for him to give her any gifts or blessings, she just wanted him to spend some time with her after doing all that. That's all.

But that day she waited and waited, but he didn't come back.

Finally unable to bear it, she called him when it was almost midnight.

But the assistant answered the call, saying that today was a meeting in Gongnan City. He was drunk and was resting in the hotel room.

Su Xi Nian immediately understood his late return, quickly got dressed, took hangover soup and headed to the hotel, thinking of taking him home or taking good care of him.

That day was very cold and snowing heavily.Huge white snowflakes kept falling from the sky like goose feathers, piling up on roofs, roads, and bending trees.

But she didn't feel cold, she was filled with joy of giving him hangover soup.

When she arrived at the hotel, she saw Lu Beicheng, who was so drunk that he was almost unconscious. However, as soon as she approached him to wake him up, he suddenly knocked him down.He was smelling of alcohol and his eyes were blurry, but she was unable to resist his domineering and enthusiastic attitude.

Later, after tenderness, Su Xinnian slept until four in the morning before being woken up by a phone call.

That day, my father was overworked and suddenly fainted. When Su Xinnian heard the news, he quickly got up and hurried over, holding on to his body, which hurt even with every step.In his haste, not even a message was left.

But it turns out...

Her face turned pale for a moment. God knows what happened after she left.

Did Bai Yingying come after her, or did they happen earlier?
Or is it just a misunderstanding?
"I..." Su Xinian's mind was full of thoughts, he bit his lower lip but couldn't say a word.

"Huh?" Lu Beicheng seemed a little sleepy, and his answering voice became lazier and slower.

Su Xinnian hesitated for a long time before finally taking a deep breath to calm down. She turned her head and looked at him under the dim moonlight.He had closed his eyes and looked like he was about to fall asleep.

She opened her mouth and took a long time to ask.

"If nothing happened between you and Bai Yingying that night... would you still fall in love with her? Will you... still be together?"

Lu Beicheng replied unconsciously in a half-dream and half-awake state: "Maybe... no. But it's not possible."

Yes, there are ifs and maybes in life.

It can only be said that fate is not enough, and God deliberately made a big joke.

They were destined to go their separate ways.

Su Xinnian covered her face, tears welling up from between her fingers.

During the night, she could not sleep, but the chaotic thoughts in her mind began to become clearer.

Tell him the truth or leave anyway?

Su Xinnian wanted to tell him at first, but later, she felt that everything was of no use.Even if they were together at first because he possessed Bai Yingying that night and wanted to be responsible for her, everything that happened later was true.Those true loves are intensified because they care about each other and appreciate each other.

She sat by the bed, looked at Lu Beicheng's sleeping face, stretched out her hand, and gently touched his cheek.

Like a pious farewell ceremony.

Day, it's getting bright.

Lu Beicheng felt a touch of softness touching his nose and couldn't help but move. He felt that the hand was like a kitten's paw, itchy but soft.

After a while, his eyes narrowed slightly and opened a crack.

Under the hazy light, he saw Su Xinnian.Her expression was peaceful, her lips pursed slightly, and her eyes were filled with deep nostalgia, which was mixed with sourness and pain.It's like a farewell person, the last attachment.

Her hands were gentle and full of love, a love that could obviously warm his heart.

Lu Beicheng woke up.

When Su Xinnian noticed that he had woken up, he was stunned and quickly took back his hand.

But Lu Beicheng grabbed her dodging hand and gently pulled her towards it.

"Why didn't you sleep?"

Su Xi Nian retreated, kept a distance, and said softly: "I can't sleep, I'm thinking about something."

"Thinking about what?"

"I was thinking..." Su Xinnian paused and raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "When will you give me the divorce agreement in your bag."

Lu Beicheng was startled for a moment, and then the pressure in the air suddenly dropped to the bottom!

His arms stiffened, and all the ambiguity in the air was shattered in an instant.

Su Xinnian knew that this time, she had pierced them with her own hands.

She no longer wanted to indulge in occasional fantasies. After all, fantasies would eventually be shattered.

She sat up and he slowly stood up.

"I want to know what conditions you gave me." Su Xinnian raised his hand, tied up his bathrobe, walked to the table and sat down with an indifferent expression.

"House, car, stock, everything." Lu Beicheng replied coldly.

so generous?

Oh, he was willing to sacrifice just to be with Bai Yingying.

Su Xinnian shook his head, "I don't need any of these."

Her slender white fingers gently crossed the table, with a kind of careless thinking, which made Lu Beicheng's eyes shrink slightly.

Just a few minutes ago, her soft hands gently touched his face, her eyes full of nostalgia.

But now, she was sitting calmly at the table, talking to him about divorce.

Sure enough, she is a woman with a cold-blooded nature.

"Then what do you want?" Lu Beicheng's handsome face was cold, he stretched his long legs and got out of bed.

Su Xinnian raised his eyes and looked at him, "I just hope my father can be released from prison. I believe you have a way."
