Zeng Xu and He Xianmo have known each other since their undergraduate days. It cannot be said that they know him well, but at least they know his character and style. He Xianmo is a person with a strong sense of responsibility, which is not only reflected in work and life, but also in relationships. Although there are many people chasing him now, the only relationship He Xianmo has ever had is with Shi Lan.
He is very principled in this regard. If he didn't really make up his mind to be with the other person, he would never do anything that would cause misunderstanding - so, during the party that day, He Xianmo stood up in front of such people. After her son kissed Shi Lan, Zeng Xu felt that they would definitely reconcile, so he didn't even bother to ask again.
Who knew that He Xianmo would bring him a big one today? Zeng Xu looked at his long-time friend in front of him and suddenly felt a little strange.
"Are you really not going to be with her?" He Xianmo didn't answer for a while. Zeng Xu lost his temper and continued to ask, "Then she has come to London for you and hasn't found a job. What will you do if you leave her alone?" ?”
He Xianmo: "I didn't ask her to come."
"...That's what I said, but why does it sound so scummy?" Zeng Xu sighed with emotion.
He Xianmo raised his eyelids and glanced at him, then said coolly, "I can't compare to you."
Zeng Xu was unconvinced: "Am I a scumbag?"
He Xianmo didn't answer, just looked at him, his eyes seemed to ask: Isn't it?
"We are different. I'm a scumbag because I didn't even talk about it seriously. Aren't you and Shi Lan talking about it seriously? I don't plan to get married." Zeng Xu still felt that there was a difference between them. After all, He Xianmo wanted to get married and have children. , his parents would not agree with him staying alone.
"Okay, if you don't want to talk about this, let me ask you," Zeng Xu changed the subject, "Do you really not like Shi Lan anymore?"
He Xianmo: "Yeah."
Although he only answered one word, he had the feeling that time has changed and things have changed. It sounded a bit heartless, but it made it impossible to blame anyone - for a person in his thirties, love has long ceased to be a part of life. It was the main theme, not to mention that it was Shi Lan who initiated the breakup at that time, and He Xianmo was also depressed, but as for feelings, the past is the past.
Some things in this world cannot be repaired.
——
That day, after Zeng Xu learned that He Xianmo had no intention to continue to be with Shi Lan, he made a special appointment with Shi Lan for a meal in the evening and comforted her for a long time. Although Shi Lan's mood did not improve much, she had accepted that they could not get back together. fact.
However, Shilan decided to stay in London and find a job.
Zhou Ruo learned about these things from Zeng Xu in the next few days.
When Zeng Xu talked about the relationship between He Xianmo and Shi Lan, it was quite regrettable, but Zhou Ruo acted as a qualified listener, only listening without expressing any opinions - regarding Shi Lan's choice, Zhou Ruo could share She is a little more affectionate, but this kind of thing will not happen to her.
Growing up, she was very clear about what she wanted, and she would never look back after making a choice. She used to think that everyone was like this, but it wasn't until she came into contact with more people that she realized that people like her were in the minority.
"I suspect Arthur has a woman he likes." Zeng Xu's words brought Zhou Ruo's distracted attention back.
When Zhou Ruo came back to his senses and looked at Zeng Xu, he was stroking his chin and thinking, like Conan doing reasoning, "He hasn't been feeling well these past two days."
Zhou Ruo took a sip of juice but smiled silently.
Although Zhou Ruo chatted with Zeng Xu extensively, she never told him about He Xianmo. She didn't think there would be any estrangement between the two of them because of this matter, but she just didn't think it was necessary. Anyway, the relationship between her and He Xianmo There will be no development.
…
On the weekend, Zhou Ruo and Xu Zong made an appointment to go surfing together.
Zhou Ruo arrived earlier. After changing his clothes, he sat on the beach to drink water and bask in the sun. After more than 20 minutes, Xu Zong came over.
There were many people on the beach, but Xu Zong found Zhou Ruo's figure in the crowd at a glance, and he walked directly towards her.
Zhou Ruo saw Xu Zong walking this way, put down the water glass, and got up from the chair. After Xu Zong came over, he gave her a warm hug, and Zhou Ruo smiled and hugged him back.
After the two separated, Xu Zong's hand was still on Zhou Ruo's waist. He looked down at the surfing suit she was wearing. Wrapped in the super tight style, her waist was even more beautiful, and the exposed part was vaguely still. You can see the lines of your abdominal muscles.
Although Zhou Ruo's waist is thin, she does not feel weak, and she is not the so-called type that can arouse men's "protective desire". She has a very strong vitality, and when you come into contact with her, you will unconsciously feel... She will become full of energy, which is also her most attractive point in Xu Zong's eyes.
"We haven't seen you for a week. Have you forgotten what I look like?" Zhou Ruo didn't show any shyness after being stared at by Xu Zong for such a long time.
In fact, she knew very well what Xu Zong's eyes meant, but as a man, it would be boring to say it too directly.
"Your hair looks great when tied up." Xu Zong thought about it for a while, "It's very sunny."
"Really?" Zhou Ruo raised his lips, "Then you are very lucky today and can be accompanied by the sun all day long. Congratulations."
Xu Zong: "Then I have to cherish it. The sunshine in London is so valuable."
He held her hand and said, "Ms. Sunshine, it's time for us to find the coach."
Zhou Ruo had never been to the surfing beach today. The coach was also found by Xu Zong. She was only responsible for playing.
Zhou Ruo picked up his bag and set off with Xu Zong.
Xu Zong introduced the coach's information to Zhou Ruo on the way. He said that this coach was very good, but he had not "come out" for a long time. This time, he was introduced by someone and met him by chance.
Xu Zong's words aroused Zhou Ruo's interest, and he began to look forward to meeting him soon.
The two walked for a few minutes, and Zhou Ruo caught a glimpse of a familiar figure from the corner of his eye, which looked very much like He Xianmo.
Zhou Ruo instinctively thought that he had seen it wrong.
At this moment, Xu Zong beside him suddenly said: "Is it Arthur?"
Zhou Ruo had to look up this time and took a closer look. He Xianmo was wearing a black surfing suit. This style was very different from his usual style. The slim cut highlighted the advantages of his figure.
Broad shoulders, narrow waist, pretty good talent.
When Zhou Ruo saw He Xianmo's arm lines before, he knew that he should have the habit of exercising.
But I didn’t expect that he also surfed.
I didn't even expect that he was the "coach" in Xu Zong's words. I didn't know whether to call it a coincidence or nonsense.
In an instant, He Xianmo had already walked in front of the two of them. After chatting with Xu Zong for a few words, he glanced at Zhou Ruo next to him and asked, "Who goes first?"
"Dara, are you coming first?" Xu Zong asked Zhou Ruo for his opinion.
"I can do either." Zhou Ruo answered casually without looking at He Xianmo.
After discussion, Zhou Ruo came first.
Xu Zong and Zhou Ruo held hands and followed He Xianmo to the equipment area.
When putting on the life-saving equipment on his body, Xu Zong acted like a gentleman and helped Zhou Ruo.
He Xianmo lowered his head to tie the buttons on his body. Seeing this scene from the corner of his eye, he unconsciously exerted force on his fingers.
