Chapter 4 Chapter Four

It's always raining in Taipei. Pedestrians on Chongqing South Road will not appear too crowded on non-holidays. Holding black umbrellas, Luo Hong visited a bookstore.There was no class in the morning, so she decided to buy some books and go home to enrich her bookcase. Few friends, but many books.Only halfway through the shopping, her handbag was quite heavy.Seven or eight books have already created a load, but fortunately there is no need to go too far.I made an appointment with Zhao Lingyong in the morning, and met at noon at the shop selling sour plum juice. He was negotiating with a client nearby today, and he would drop by to take her home when he was free.

The mother has undergone surgery and is currently resting at home. The doctor told her to rest quietly for more than half a year and not to be tired or lift heavy objects.In this way, it is almost necessary to be in a semi-retired state, relying entirely on Zhao Lingyong to see the overall situation alone. His mother thinks that his ability and experience are enough, and he does not interfere with the company's various decisions.On the contrary, Zhao Lingyong still comes to give briefings at home every week. The hands are getting heavier and heavier, the books that should be bought are almost bought, and I don't want to go shopping anymore. When I walked to the meeting place, I was surprised to see that Zhao Lingyong's car had already arrived, and the person standing beside the car made her blink in surprise winked

Ray, Star, Cover, Top! Qiu Yanran gritted his teeth and looked at the muddy water on his trousers. The sour plum juice he just bought was killed under the wheel, the umbrella flew to nowhere, and the books he just bought were all submerged in the puddles. , A thousand cuts to pieces is not enough to pay for a whole crime! Sorry, I will compensate you for all losses.The big umbrella in Zhao Lingyong's hand covered the angry little girl's head, and the dense drizzle fell on his expensive suit. However, little sister, you should know that it is unwise to eat while walking without looking at the road.

Qiu Yanran claims to be a cold and sarcastic person, nothing can make her swear, she is like a shrew, she is a kind of poisonous tongue, disdain to talk loudly with people, but she is suitable for using words to provoke people to jump up and down Big and loud. Yes, she needs to calm down first, don't think about the trousers that have turned from white to black, don't think about her beloved plum juice, don't think about those few favorite books, let alone the notes that must be used for the afternoon class screw you!You have no eyes!Random parking and poor technique, are you blind or blind!Don't you see me coming out of the shop and your wheels rolling over a big puddle?The reason why the traffic in Taipei City is chaotic is that you are definitely a participatory rioter!

At first, he thought this Shu was a little familiar, but when she raised her head and yelled at him, Zhao Lingyong immediately remembered that it was her!That little Japanese cousin, the top person in the Department of Economics of K University, is called Qiu Yanran, isn't she? Doesn't it look good for a talented girl of K's age to bark in the street?I heard that the headmaster of your school is proud of K. being a lady. drink!He he he!How did you guess that she was a K college student? Huh?A little familiar Qiu Yanran stared at him, and soon remembered, isn't it the ruffian who graciously picked up Luo Hong a while ago?Cousin is so sad because of him that he is still alone that he dare not intrude into the beauty's life again, and sincerely bless her.

Are you Zhao Lingyong?she asked taking a big step back. Yes, Miss Qiu.He bowed politely, with an evil smile on his lips that made one want to punch him. How could he know her? Is your cousin in good health recently?he asked leisurely. Have you checked us out?She took another step back. For this kind of businessman who has been in the society for a long time, it is really not a talented woman from a small economics department who can handle it. I've got to know what's up to my little sister.He took a step forward and brought her under the umbrella again. Throwing the startled throbbing aside to enjoy the cool air, Qiu Yanran immediately reacted:

little sister?Not a little lover?Was her message wrong? When can the words of the three aunts and six wives be trusted?He still had a wicked smile on his face, wantonly looking at every vivid expression of this beautiful personality, it was very fun, as if he was hiding thousands of ridicules ready to amuse people. No, this person is too treacherous and powerful, she is not suitable for fighting, so hurry up and withdraw, and we will talk about it next time. Uh, what happened today, I'm unlucky, my lord has a lot, so I don't care about it with you, goodbye, no see. Hey, take your time.He grabbed her right hand.It's raining, girls don't look good when they're bald, you should know what happens when you get caught in the rain in Taipei.Stuffing the umbrella into her hand, taking advantage of her not knowing the situation, he sniffed and kissed her pretty nose.

satyr!The jade leg was kicked out reflexively, but it was the fate of being caught in vain, and it was tragic that someone grabbed the waist. Let go. Want to do it again?His eyes were full of pleasure. Go, fuck you!She quickly broke free from him, not daring to think about revenge, and now only wanted to retreat with the least loss. So she backed away while cursing, and finally disappeared among the people coming and going, with an upward-pointing middle finger as the final farewell gesture. And this pleased Zhao Lingyong, he widened the arc of his smile almost without image, and finally burst out laughing, he couldn't stop for a long time, he couldn't remember how many years he hadn't been so vile and wicked, it was really enjoyable.

Luo Hong stood behind him, blinking his eyes in surprise, thoughtful After the little brother found out that Qiu Yanran was Fan Qun's cousin, she got close to her deliberately a while ago, and she had a clear answer. Does Fan Qun like her?So let some people spend a lot of time, but it made her life a mess. You can't blame other people for being troublesome, because right now, isn't she one of the troublesome people?Fan Qun had an introduction to linguistics class in the fourth quarter. She was sitting in the pavilion outside the office of the Japanese Department, reading a book and waiting for others.

As soon as she entered the classroom in the morning, she received a note, the messy handwriting on it showed a desperate mood Zhao Lingyong is an old pervert with gold and jade, and lust. I personally suggest that you abandon this wolf and find another good green, so as not to regret it all your life. Qiu Yanran The first time she saw it, she couldn't help laughing. From what she saw with her own eyes yesterday, compared with the popularity on the note, it was really interesting.Zhao Lingyong didn’t come to pick her up to school today, she was brought by her younger brother, and along the way, I heard from my younger brother that Zhao Lingyong didn’t know where he went early in the morning, and he would usually come to their house for breakfast (he lives near her house, about ten minutes) driving distance), but no one answered my father's phone calls.

Then she received this note.Brother Zhao must have done something to Qiu Yanran again, she felt certain in her heart. Not long after the bell rang for the end of class, Fan Qun was seen walking towards the office.There was a burst of tension in her heart, and she couldn't help but want to hide herself, almost forgetting that she came here to find him. A little embarrassing.Because of the previous few meetings, she always had a cold face, only annoyed with him.Feng Shui really takes turns, she thought.But if she hadn't been able to find Qiu Yanran, she would not have come to him. Before he had time to think about how to greet him, Fan Qun seemed to have sensed her presence, and his eyes that were focused on the front suddenly turned to the side of the pavilion.Across the lawn and trees seven or eight meters away, he just saw her. Startled, disbelieving, and then ecstatically overwhelmed. He strode over. Hi.Is she here looking for someone?Or just enjoy the cool?Would you mind his participation?When he thought of this, it was too late, because he was already looking at her in the pavilion. Luo Hong stood up straight, and suddenly found that he, who looked like a scholar, actually had a straight body and broad shoulders.The two thick Japanese hardcover books only let him clamp them with his fingers, and they seemed to be weightless.The strength of a man is really much stronger than that of a woman. This is the first time she has such a deep understanding. Hello.She hesitated to speak. Hello.He quickly responded, trying to suppress his joy of flying to the sky, for fear that any inappropriate move would cause the beautiful woman to leave in a huff. Are you looking for someone?Is there anything I can do to help?By the way, are you hungry?Shall we have lunch together? His bright smiling face and eager tone made Luo Hong flinch a little.She is not used to the kindness from outside, and no one has shown her this way before. She was frightened, but she didn't resist like before. She came to him today, so she should show a little courtesy.She thought about it and decided: I invite you to dinner, is the light food restaurant opposite the school okay? Please me?He whispered in surprise.I'd love to have lunch with you, but how can a man make a girl pay the bill, no. Is it important?She frowned slightly, not understanding why he cared about such a trivial matter.Or could she just borrow him for a few minutes and leave?But wouldn't that be too rude?Too abrupt? unimportant.He admits.It's just that it shouldn't be a girl who spoke. Do you still have lunch?She does as she pleases and does not force herself. let's go.He no longer expresses his opinions on this matter, for fear that the beautiful woman will turn around and leave, then he should die. He exited the pavilion first, turned around while walking, and almost bumped into the stone pillar, but fortunately he stopped urgently. There are pillars here, be careful.He warned in shame. Who doesn't know there are pillars over there?Is he the one who should be careful?There was a smile on the corner of her lips, and she lowered her head so that no one could see her.It's bad to laugh at someone's clumsiness, so it shouldn't be too obvious. Just like an idiot! Fan Qun wailed for himself in his heart, usually he was calm and decent, why did he become a complete idiot in front of her?The more you want to be perfect, the more clumsy you will be, and the worse your evaluation in her mind will be, right? He hardly had the face to meet her. After walking for a long time, he sneaked a glance at the beautiful woman out of the corner of his eye, and then lost his mind at the faint smile on her cold face, her smile was shy When she inadvertently looked at him, her eyes collided, she was stunned, and she quickly turned her head away, feeling guilty and embarrassed, red tide surrounded her fair face. Fan Qun, on the other hand, had already drowned in her rare beauty, and didn't even notice that the book in her hand had dropped. In fact, there is a kind of calm temperament in him, which must come from the edification and nurturing of his character and upbringing, which makes him calm and leisurely.And such a person shouldn't behave like this lunch, he has dropped his spoon and chopsticks several times, and finally, under the staring eyes of the waiter, he apologized again and again and let the food be removed , Serving juice, I don't know whether it was intentional or not, the waiter put the juice in a plastic cup, which showed a clear gap with her exquisite broken glass. However, Fan Qun didn't mind, and even apologized every time the waiter came, blushing several times. He has a good temper, very similar to his father and younger brother, but his temperament is still somewhat different.In addition to his sunny and positive personality, Fan Qun actually has other unpredictable qualities, which are quite hidden and difficult to discover.It was probably the first time in his life that he felt so helpless today. Does she make him nervous?Why?She tilted her head in thought, unwilling to deliberately pretend to be ignorant and ignore his clear affection for her, but would liking her cause him so much tension?Why? I am not Zhao Lingyong's girlfriend, please tell Qiu Yanran.Not wanting to think too much about some incomprehensible things, she directly stated the key points. Is there any reason for this?Are they not boyfriend and girlfriend?Fan Qun tried his best to suppress his resurgent heart, so is there any hope for him? But what about hope?Will there be a happy ending between them?Perhaps, being able to make friends with her is a very lucky thing, and he shouldn't think about anything else. Luo Hong took a sip of the juice and said: She thought Zhao Lingyong was my boyfriend, and even thought he was very flirtatious. I hope she will not be misled by wrong information. He is pursuing Xiaoqiu?At this moment, he realized a little bit, and asked in surprise.How could these two get together? The man reacted so quickly, which surprised her a little.Compared with the frequent mistakes made in the past half an hour, she almost thought that this person was a nerd. Fan Qun laughed lowly. Then I'm not worried about whether Mr. Zhao is as notorious as rumored, but he will chase very hard.Xiaoqiu is a very purposeful person, she has a plan for her own life, and she doesn't allow anyone to intervene in the middle of the disturbance.She doesn't care much about the opposite sex. He is a more open-minded brother, right?She looked at his hearty smiling face, and couldn't help recalling her family's opposition to her possible boyfriend over the past few days. It was not so much against Fan Qun (provided that he really wanted to pursue her), but rather that they had thought of it. She is married to a foreign country and it is difficult to meet each other, so she thinks that it is not suitable for her to have a boyfriend at this moment, and it is better to find someone else.Brother and father belong to the minority of silent supporters. And she just thinks their worries are ridiculous and absurd. Being able to make friends is also good, no one can say what will happen in the future.She just wanted to see the pure and happy smile on Zhao Ge's face again. If love is as elixir as the sympathy poems sing, maybe Zhao Ge will have a different life because of it.There are few unrealistic longings in her life, and among them, this is the first to teach her to persevere. She saw that Qiu Yanran made Brother Zhao happy, so she wanted to make some efforts.It seems that Qiu Yanran is not so indifferent, is he? Can I be friends with you too?he asked carefully. I have never made friends.she said. Can you start with me?His eyes are bright. Why not?only What to do among friends?She has always had this confusion.Share secrets together?She has no secrets.Weaving dreams together, singing wind, flowers, snow and moon?She is rarely impractical, let alone between the opposite sex.Usually the love between the opposite sex is taken for granted. Fan Qun was taken aback by her question!Who would ask others: What do I do with you as a friend?Unless she's never been in friend mode, is she? He thought her solitude was the result of a cold nature that bored her to all human relations and communication.I didn't think that she might never have made friends at all, so she has been living a life of coming and going alone. Between friends, you don’t have to deliberately do anything. Sometimes it’s like what you and your brother often do. Go to and from school together, occasionally take a walk to eat ice cream, and talk on the phone when you have something on your mind. For example, now, we care for our common concern People sit here and talk. Do you have to have this kind of communication to be a friend? No, the point is the casualness of both of them having this mood at the same time.A friend is a channel to share and share when you are depressed or happy. I hope to have this honor to be your friend. Then, people who are not easy to have joy and depression don't need friends?She never felt that she was lacking in it. At this time, the existence of friends has become a spare tire.The spare tire is also very useful, who knows when emergencies will come. This man is really stubborn.Spare tire?It didn't seem to be a word used here, she lowered her head and smiled slightly, sucked the juice with only ice cubes left, and didn't want to look up for a long time.In fact, his focused eyes kept on her face, which made her gradually feel uncomfortable. I can't help wondering: Is he so focused on his friends that he doesn't know how to look away as if he is studying some rare item? It's time for me to go back to class.She looked at her watch, relieved to find an excuse to leave the eye. Oh, ok, I'll pay the bill.He got up quickly, the napkin on his lap fell, and the wallet he took out also fell.He hurriedly bent down to pick it up, but hit his head on the table. Another unbearable tragedy She secretly covered her mouth with the book, lest he see her lip line when she smiled too clearly.It's wrong to laugh at people, it's cruel to laugh at people's clumsiness, but it's really funny This man, named Fan Qun, was a clumsy man, but because of his clumsiness, she remembered him deeply, in her heart. It's really a turn of events. For two years, Fan Qun has single-handedly looked for her as a trash can for her emotions. Now, it's really miserable. How could she have such a day? !Instead, she shrank to her cousin with a sad face and sighed. At this time, I can't help but complain that I know that the chicken mother-in-law is an unwise behavior, but I just couldn't help the chicken mother-in-law once, and now I have a brown sugar, I really regret it, why is she because she can't bear to see her cousin too much? Overwhelmed by complaints and joined the Luo family incident to stir up trouble!And stick a nougat from now on? The thirty-year-old Zhao family old man always made her grit her teeth and regret her past. In order to know why the Luo family has a peculiar personality, she tricked Zhao Lingyong into being a younger sister in the company time and time again, not to mention that she didn't get paid, and she foolishly paid for the winter vacation in order to get more information, but the secret he said Xin has no value at all.It wasn't until her two days off, spring vacation, and winter vacation were all abducted, and after she became the little girl of Baigong, that she regretfully remembered that she could easily ask Luo Shao for this information. That sincere and frank idiot would be very happy to provide. Alas!She was really confused why Zhao Lingyong suddenly filled her life inexplicably. Luo Hong spent almost all of her childhood in the hospital?Why?Putting the cappuccino on the table in front of his cousin, Fan Qun poured himself a glass of Blue Mountain without creamer. Bad heart.Because she is often warned not to have too much emotional ups and downs oppressing the heart, over time, her character has developed a cold personality. She looks very healthy now, maybe the disease has been cured?He asked lightly with concern. Well, opened several times.She took a big sip of coffee, and the corners of her lips were covered with foam. I was lucky enough to meet Mrs. Luo this Saturday, and found that their mother and daughter look alike.Mrs. Luo has just finished her operation, so she can't work hard, and she just came to distribute the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts.I, a work-study student named Lian, finally received my first payment after three weekends as a white worker. It was 2,000 yuan. Rudong’s work-study students all have this kind of price, so old man Zhao’s income The bill must be too much to scare people.Otherwise, he would not have made an exception and invited me to eat beef noodles that night.In the past, when I dragged her to work overtime until late at night, I always dismissed her with a bowl of Yangchun noodles and a marinated egg. This man is really the pickiest man she has ever seen in her life, thanks to his well-dressed appearance, tsk! Xiaoqiu, this man likes you, can't you feel it?After hearing the complaints several times, Fan Qun was amazed that she was as smart as her, how could he not see that Zhao Lingyong was pursuing her?Otherwise, for that kind of career-minded man, where would he have the spare time to tease a little girl? like?my God!Of course I understand what it means to like something.When I was in high school, I received some love letters and flowers. Some idiots took up a seat for me on the bus and followed me home; when I was in college, my seniors invited me to the library or held some activities together for the sake of clubs or homework; My classmate’s brother asked me to watch a movie. This is what I like to do, and I try to show my best side to impress people. Have you ever seen someone do the opposite?If today, the way you show your love is to go to Luo Hong's side to tease her, harass her, and bully her, I suspect that you would have been chopped into pieces and abandoned in the wilderness.Not to mention that they can go on like this and become friends.Ha, brother, I really don't know how you can bridge the gap of friends, is it so difficult to just say that you want to pursue her? Fan Qun smiled wryly. It would be good for me and her to be friends, and I would be happy to be her lifelong friend. drink!No way?I thought it was just a means. It is impossible for her to go back to Japan with me. I shouldn't delay her after teasing her.Isn't that what you've been telling me?I am very content to be friends with her so far.He has never talked about feelings before, but he deeply understands that feelings are easy to let go and hard to let go. Why bother to leave regrets on the girl's most beautiful first love? When she is treated as a younger sister?Qiu Yanran cried out in disbelief. That's what's best for her.He thinks so. Like that ruffian Zhao?Accompanying her for fifteen years for no reason, but only treating her like a younger sister?What are you men thinking about?If old man Zhao feels inferior because of his age, I can understand it, but what about you?If you really feel inferior to the Japanese blood, you will really be deterred, right? he laughs. It's not inferiority, but I can't bear to let her be separated from her family too far, Xiaoqiu, you know that if I pursue her, I must hope for results. You have had this kind of thought for a long time, but you won't give up just because you treat her as a friend today.Stop it.Lied to her so much. right.So I don't want her to experience this kind of pain.It is my greatest luck to be friends with her. Qiu Yanran suddenly thought of something, grabbed the handbag, and took out a four-inch photo.Well, the photo A from old man Zhao's album was taken during Chinese New Year last year.Luo Hong doesn't like taking pictures, so it's a lot of hard work to get a single photo, which cost me a good time next Saturday.In other words, I have to go to old man Zhao to do white work again. He quickly took it and stared at the person in the photo bewilderedly.In the photo, she is wearing a royal blue wide sweater, sitting in a corner by the window, staring at a pot of orchids, unaware that someone has captured her beautiful image into the camera. Xiaoqiu, thank you.He couldn't take his eyes off it. Seeing her cousin so happy, she didn't make such a sacrifice in vain. Cousin, over there in Japan, do you have to go back?Have you ever thought about settling in Taiwan? No, my grandfather is getting old, and I always hoped that I could help him for a few years. Even if I don't join the company, at least I should be where he calls me at any time.I can't ignore all this. Even marriage?Can the family make arrangements according to their needs?According to the practice of those cousins ​​of yours, all of you are on a blind date, and then get married to form a larger interest group?She really can't stand the opinion of the big Japanese family.Isn't that why her aunt can't enter Kawabata's mansion?Although the Kawabata family has softened now, it is Auntie who refuses to step into that big family.But sectarianism never goes away. I don't want to get married.Before meeting Luo Hong, he didn't have this kind of thought. After meeting her, other women can no longer be in his eyes, let alone have the idea of ​​marriage.My parents will not allow me to give marriage to a combination of interests. She patted her chest. Count your sanity.I'm really worried that your negotiable personality will be led away by your grandpa. What should be insisted on, I never give in, although there are not many things I resist.He looked at the photo again, reluctant to turn his eyes away. When you get along with your friend Luo Hong for a long time, get to know each other better, and become more attracted, I doubt how long you can keep this pure friendship.She turned around and said, "Furthermore, if she falls in love with you, what should I do?" He was stunned, facing the photo and said: I think she won't like me.In front of her, I'm just a clumsy man.Girls will sympathize with clumsy men, but it is impossible to fall in love.Thinking of those embarrassing things, he couldn't help but face another burst of embarrassment. but his clumsiness made her laugh Fan Qun didn't know whether to be happy or sad about this. I can only carefully store her beautiful smile in the treasure box of memory and treasure it for a lifetime. friend?If it's just friends, how can we hold on to each other? Every frown and smile of yours is the source of my throbbing. Falling in love with you is my destiny; Calling him a friend is hypocritical. A friend is a ditch I must jump over. Don't laugh at me for repeating the distance that was built and then demolished. Please read with my eagerly beating heart I love you.
