Of course, when the ring was put on the middle joint of her finger, his hand slowly stopped, and the next second, he said: "Sese, you can refuse, if you don't refuse, then I will treat you as It’s the default, okay?”
he asked her.
Catherine still didn't respond to his words, and when Xu Yunhe saw that she didn't move, he lowered his head again and continued to push the ring on her fingertips with a serious expression.
Finally, the ring was placed on the innermost part of her ring finger.
What was Catherine thinking during that process? She didn't even think about anything, so she didn't refuse.
…
The next morning, Catherine came down from upstairs and went to sit down in the lobby cafe area.
She didn't dress up much when she woke up. She was wearing simple clothes, but sitting there, she couldn't hide her beauty.
The staff in the coffee area came to her and asked in a low voice: "Madam, what would you like a cup of?"
Catherine stayed up all night last night. Naturally, she came down early this morning to relieve her depression.
She held the magazine in her hand, looked at the staff and said, "A cup of black coffee."
The staff nodded: "Okay, ma'am."
After the staff left, Catherine sat there and continued to flip through the magazine in her hand, but before the magazine turned two pages, a man walked in from the hotel door. He stood at the door and looked at Catherine for a while, and then Walked towards her: "Are you drinking coffee?"
When Catherine heard this voice, her hands stopped, and then she raised her face to look at the person standing in front of her.
The person in front of him turned out to be Yu Ming.
Catherine almost got up from the chair, but soon, she suppressed the urge to get up and looked at the person with a somewhat wary look.
Yu Ming looked at the frown between her brows and the wariness in her eyes. He snorted and said, "When did I make you so wary?"
You really shouldn't have such an expression when you meet an old friend.
So she subconsciously relaxed a little, closed the magazine, and said softly: "I just didn't expect to meet you here."
"I just passed by this hotel. I heard from Lily that you live here now, so I came over. I didn't expect such a coincidence to meet you reading a magazine leisurely here."
She put the magazine on the table: "Get up early and drink a cup of black coffee to reduce swelling."
She had no intention of inviting him to sit down. The first time she saw him, her eyes stopped falling on him.
Yu Ming asked: "Won't you invite me for a cup of coffee?"
She didn't seem stingy in response to his unsolicited request, she just said: "What do you want to drink."
Then he sat down in front of her: "Cappuccino."
When he said these four words, Catherine glanced at him.
He looked calm and didn't think anything was wrong. He asked, "What, is there something wrong?"
Cappuccino was Catherine's favorite type of coffee in the past, and she didn't expect that he would order such a thing that existed in the past between the two of them today.
"nothing."
She quickly responded to him without paying more attention or staying longer in this regard.
Yu Ming sat sideways with his legs crossed, his arms leaning against the back of the chair.
In just four years, he has become more mature and charming. At least Catherine can't find any trace of youthfulness in him.
"Congratulations on becoming a father."
Her sincere blessing.
After hearing this, Yu Ming talked about something else: "I remember that you used to like cappuccino the most, but now you like to drink black coffee. That stuff is very bitter and seems not something you can swallow."
In order to prevent her eyes from falling on him, she picked up the magazine on the table and flipped through it: "People will change. What was unacceptable before does not mean that it is unacceptable now."
Then, she added: "Bitter coffee improves metabolism and has no calories. It is a very good thing."
Yu Ming leaned there and smiled: "Yes, indeed."
At this moment, the hotel's service staff brought two cups of coffee to the table. The service staff first placed a cup of coffee in front of Yu Ming, and Yu Ming's eyes fell on the cup of cappuccino.
Then, the waiter placed black coffee in front of Catherine.
For a moment, no one spoke between the two.
Silence existed between the two of them.
Yu Ming didn't say much for the time being. He just picked up the cup of coffee on the table and drank it.
The hotel environment is inherently quiet, especially the coffee area, where there are very few people and it is extremely quiet.
At this time, Yu Ming's eyes noticed the ring on the finger of the person in front of him, and his eyes flickered.
However, the person sitting there didn't notice his gaze at all, and just continued to flip through the magazine. While flipping, he picked up the coffee on the table and drank it.
Yu Ming asked: "Is this the ring given by Xu Yunhe?"
When Catherine heard his voice, her eyes fell on her fingers. She seemed to think of something for a moment. She wanted to use her sleeves to cover up the ring, but as soon as her hands fell on her sleeves, she felt completely helpless. necessary.
Her hands completely left her sleeves, and she looked directly at Yu Ming: "Yes."
This sentence was probably correct. Yu Ming didn't ask any more questions. His eyes only fell on her for a long time.
For some reason, Catherine felt that the current atmosphere was inexplicably strange, so she added: "Last time I met Xu Li, she gained a lot of weight. I am very happy to see you happy. I wish you the best, Yu Ming."
She thought that even if they were former lovers, even if they separated, they should still be friends now, so her blessings to him were sincere.
And extremely sincere.
In this world, she is the person who wants him to have a good life the most.
When Yu Ming heard her words, he didn't respond to her blessing. He just kept tasting the cup of coffee in his hand.
In almost five or six minutes, his cup of coffee ran out.
He put the foamy quilt on the table, then took his hand away from the cup wall, and looked at her: "Well, thank you for your blessing, I should also congratulate you in advance. , Qiqi."
He called her Qiqi, but for some reason, Catherine could hear a different meaning in the word congratulations.
Her eyes were fixed on his.
"You have changed a lot in the past few years."
"Everyone changes, Yu Ming, including you."
"No."
When the two of them talked, their voices were calm.
It was quiet again, and it started to rain outside.
At this time, the hotel door was pushed open, and a sentence came: "Yu Ming——"
Catherine and Yu Ming both turned around at the same time, and the person standing at the door turned out to be Xu Li.
Xu Li, who had pushed the door into the hall, was looking at the two people sitting there with a slightly surprised look.
Catherine put down the newspaper in her hand, and when she was about to say something, Yu Ming stood up from the chair calmly, and then smiled at Xu Li and said, "You're done so quickly?"
"It's done. I heard the driver said you were here to find my brother, so I came too."
"Eldest brother left this morning, so I didn't go up. Who knew I met your future sister-in-law downstairs."
