HCB Chapter 24 Are You In Love?
Chapter 24 Are You In Love?
Lying on the bed at night, Zhou Xiaoxi couldn't help rummaging through memories one by one, sorting out every detail that happened when he and Lou Tingyu got along with Xiongyan in the past.
I remembered that Xiong Yan joked that if she and Lou Tingyu had dinner alone, she might not be able to think of a restaurant. At that time, she didn't care about it, because the preconditions were difficult to achieve. I didn't expect that today I would take the initiative to invite Lou Tingyu.
This was not as difficult as imagined.
The situation Xiong Yan guessed did not happen. Lou Tingyu is not an uninitiated person. On the contrary, she is very used to making decisions, and the same is true when it comes to choosing a restaurant. After Zhou Xiaoxi said "it's okay", she chose it almost immediately Dining room.
Thinking about it this way, Lou Tingyu should just believe in Xiong Yan's vision, so he didn't raise any conditions.
Zhou Xiaoxi sighed leisurely, what is this?It is the tacit understanding of friends for many years.The best thing to do is to settle for the next best thing. From now on, she will just have a friendship.
Finally acknowledging the reality, Zhou Xiaoxi no longer deliberately avoids it, and as soon as she meets Xiong Yan at the airport early in the morning, she sticks to it.
"Xiaoxi, why did you get off work so early yesterday? You have already left when I came back. I wanted to find you for dinner."
"Sister Wang Li and I went out." Zhou Xiaoxi said, "Sister Xiongyan, today's meeting shouldn't be too long, can we swim? I bought a new swimsuit."
Xiong Yan pinched her cheeks with both hands and said: "The child is really in good spirits. It takes us six hours to arrive by plane, and we have to take a car to the hotel, arrange luggage, and hold a meeting. Don't tell me if you have time. Didn't you think you might not have the energy to swim?"
"No way..." Zhou Xiaoxi really didn't expect this, she was full of excitement.
If she can't become a CP, she can drink one alone!The blazing sun, the humid sea breeze, the unique style of a foreign country, soaking in the warm water waves of the same pool with Xiong Yan, thinking about nothing and full of charm, there is no need to cherish the opposite floor that only she understands Rain's guilt, really heaven.
"But my heart is extremely pure." Zhou Xiaoxi solemnly declared to the system, "I didn't want to take advantage of Sister Xiong Yan."
She thought of another question: "System, do you need to consume energy to listen to me and analyze what I say?"
【Hearing function does not consume energy.Analyzing the meaning of the host's words only consumes very little energy and can be ignored. 】
"Are you implying that my words are not nutritious?" Zhou Xiaoxi asked sharply.
The system is silent.
Zhou Xiaoxi resented: "Human beings are creatures who love to talk nonsense. If you talk a lot of nonsense, the happiness index is still high."
She suddenly looked at Lou Tingyu.
Lou Tingyu looked back, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.She smiled, and the gold on her lips sparkled dazzlingly.
"It varies from person to person." Zhou Xiaoxi added to the system, she selfishly hoped that Manager Lou would be a very happy person.
The six-hour flight transformed the familiar land under our feet into an island. The resort hotel is full of green plants, and the light is full of green and refreshing.After check-in, everyone gets their room card and goes to resettlement first. The accommodation standard for ordinary employees is a double suite, while the supervisor and manager level is a single suite, and the room type for the upper management is even more luxurious.
Zhou Xiaoxi and Xiong Yanlou Tingyu walked together and lived in a villa facing the sea.This probably belongs to the boss standard.
The first floor has a swimming pool, living room, kitchen and master bedroom, and the second floor has a small living room, two bedrooms and a connecting balcony overlooking the swimming pool.
"Tingyu lives on the first floor?"
"..."
Xiong Yan took her as her acquiescence, and shared a bedroom on the second floor with Zhou Xiaoxi.
Zhou Xiaoxi had a passion for wearing a swimsuit, but the company-wide meeting ended at five o'clock, and when he returned after dinner, the sun was not so hot, and the water in the swimming pool felt a little cold when he reached out to touch the water. Zhou Xiaoxi was afraid of catching a cold, so he had to regret it. Lou took out his laptop and worked.
Xiong Yan came to look for her and said in surprise, "Aren't you tired? Let's rest today, let's go down and watch TV and chat, and we will be busy tomorrow."
"I'm not tired, I still have tasks for tomorrow." Zhou Xiaoxi said with a smile, "Go down first, I'll go when I'm done."
Lou Tingyu was in the bedroom with the door open, and when she heard footsteps coming downstairs, she came out and saw Xiong Yan and asked, "Where's Zhou Xiaoxi?"
"She's working." Xiong Yan said gloomily, "Where did she get so many jobs, Wang Li must have asked for it, she's so cruel."
Xiong Yan had an idea: "Yes, I can come and talk to her." Chen Xuanxuan has already decided to transfer to the administration department, and this vacation will also be carried out with people from the administration department.To meet so many new colleagues, there must be no time to play with Zhou Xiaoxi.In Xiong Yan's heart, this pair is equivalent to announcing a breakup, and Heng Yue can only place her hopes on Wang Li for the rest of her life.
Lou Tingyu sat on the sofa and chose a channel at random. Foreign languages were babbling like noise. She said to Xiong Yan, "Wang Li is Zhou Xiaoxi's master."
"Huh? I know, so what, even a master can't abuse his disciples."
Who are you from Zhou Xiaoxi?
This is Lou Tingyu's next sentence.Xiong Yan didn't understand what she meant, so she fell silent.Since she was called "Sister Xiong Yan", she must be Zhou Xiaoxi's sister.
After changing the channel, Lou Tingyu said, "It's not just because of Wang Li. She wants to be the 'Star of the Month', and the selection will resume this month."
Xiong Yan: "I've never understood, why is she acting like this?"
Lou Tingyu thought about it, and it seemed that the reason Zhou Xiaoxi said...was also Wang Li.
"Actually, she is a newcomer, it is enough to be as good as Zhang Chengxin, and she is quite eye-catching now." Xiong Yan said, "Fortunately, Wang Li accepted her and changed someone else to be her master, so she can't be compared to her? "
Lou Tingyu: "Zhang Chengxin has Zhang Dong."
"You are prejudiced against him because the boss wants to match you up. He has Mr. Zhang, but does anyone in the office know about it? This is already very good."
"I feel good, how about you?"
Xiong Yan: "I don't like Maotouxiaozi, there are too few tastes, so I can only try something new."
Lou Tingyu suddenly remembered the question Zhou Xiaoxi asked herself.She was never curious about such things in the past, so when she asked, Xiong Yan looked very surprised, and asked back: "You ask me, what kind of person do I like?"
"Ah."
"I like people who have a rich inner world and can bring a lot of fun to my life, but don't hinder my life." Xiong Yan said seriously, "By the way, they also need to have a good-looking skin."
Lou Tingyu was unconscious. Every time Xiong Yan said something, she would compare it with Zhou Xiaoxi, and in the end she couldn't help being startled: rich, interesting, beautiful, everything fits.Only "doesn't hinder my life" she didn't understand what she meant, so she asked Xiong Yan.
Xiong Yan explained: "Some people have a strong desire to control, and love is true love, but he doesn't allow you to decide your own life, and uses soft and hard methods to make you do what he thinks you should do, why? Feelings belong to feelings, if you want to control my life, I will not retreat an inch."
Don't be too controlling... Zhou Xiaoxi always listens to Xiong Yan when he goes shopping or eating.
Lou Tingyu fell into her own thoughts for a moment, and after an unknown period of time, she suddenly woke up and turned her head to look at Xiong Yan without blinking.
"Why are you looking at me?" Xiong Yan stopped holding the snack.
"You," Lou Tingyu remembers seeing Xiong Yan's love partner in school, and she didn't care at the time, but now her memory is blurred, and she only knows that there are Chinese and foreigners—all of them are men, and her thoughts are in confusion , not knowing what to ask, casually said, "Are you in love now?"
"Yes." Xiong Yan stuffed the words into her mouth.
After a few seconds, Lou Tingyu realized what Xiong Yan said: "Are you in love?"
"Yeah, it's been a while." Xiong Yan said with a smile.
Is it Zhou Xiaoxi?No, they haven't known each other for long.Lou Tingyu stood up, unable to explain the feeling of relief in her heart, she sat down again after thinking about it, how could she think that there was something between Zhou Xiaoxi and Xiong Yan?
"What's wrong with you, Ting Yu?" Xiong Yan asked worriedly seeing that she was not in the right mood.
"I'm fine." Lou Tingyu shook his head slightly, feeling that his thoughts were outrageous, fortunately it was a misunderstanding.
She calmed down and said again: "I'm fine."
Xiong Yan nodded: "Okay, I see that you look a little tired, do you want to go to bed?"
"No need." Lou Tingyu changed his words as soon as he finished speaking, "Okay, I'll go back to my room."
"Go, I'm going upstairs too, and go to Xiaoxi's room to accompany her."
Lou Tingyu glanced at her, got up and went back to the bedroom.
Xiong Yan entered the door with snacks in her arms, and Zhou Xiaoxi asked, "Sister Xiong Yan, why are you here? I'm almost done."
"That's right, let's go outside to the little living room."
"Where's the building manager?"
"She went back to her room to rest." Xiong Yan said with a smile, "She's not as strong as me."
Zhou Xiaoxi closed the notebook, feeling a little disbelieving that it was the building manager. "Maybe she has work to do."
"It's also possible." Xiong Yan sat cross-legged on the sofa in the small living room, "I said you guys come out to play once, what a chance, why don't you want to enjoy it seriously? You have to race against time. What are you busy with now? You did it?"
"Half of it is, and I asked for it on my own initiative."
"Seeing you like this, I remember that when I was studying abroad, I had to study and make money. It's similar to you now, and there are no entertainment activities, so now I like shopping when I have the conditions." Xiong Yan changed the subject, "But that's the one. I have also been in love several times during that time, so it can be seen that there will always be time squeezes."
Zhou Xiaoxi picked up a Huamei, hesitated for a while, and said: "I was in a relationship once and was dumped. She thought I was too clingy and affected her work."
"Clingy?" Xiong Yan thought for a while, "It's okay, if I have a girlfriend like you, I'd be happy to be clingy every day."
Zhou Xiaoxi smiled shyly, and said: "It's not like this now, you don't know, my whole person changes when I fall in love, it's terrible."
"How horrible, you don't allow her to go to work, or make her have to reply to a message every hour?"
"I want to see you twice a week, and we have a video call every day. You don't have to reply to the message according to the time, but if you see it, you can reply to me quickly. You can tell me if you are busy, so don't keep me waiting."
"Is that so?"
Zhou Xiaoxi shook his head: "Also, he puts too much emphasis on feelings, which puts a lot of pressure on people."
Xiong Yan smiled and asked: "Is this what that person said when we broke up? From my experience, she just wanted to break up. It's not because you are bad, but because she only thinks about herself."
Zhou Xiaoxi hugged Xiong Yan movedly, and smiled all over his face: "I only started to work hard after breaking up. My current state is much more positive and sunny than in love! The sense of accomplishment that work gives me is also more solid than the feeling of worrying about gains and losses when falling in love. I got acquainted You and the building manager, I feel very happy!"
Even if you are not a couple, any one of you is a shining existence to me.
Xiong Yan kissed her on the face: "So good! Breaking up with you is definitely her loss!"
Zhou Xiaoxi's face quickly turned red and hot, and his eyes were full of water.
