He Xianmo's moral standard is not as loose as Zhou Ruo's. At least he can't face Zeng Xu just after getting off Zhou Ruo's bed - even if he knows that they are not boyfriend and girlfriend, his inner conflict will not Attenuated by half a minute.
However, He Xianmo didn't have much time to mentally build up - Zeng Xu arrived faster than he imagined.
More than five minutes later, the doorbell of the apartment rang.
As soon as He Xianmo opened the door, he saw Zeng Xu carrying Nuomizi on his chest.
Although he had changed to a new environment, Nuomi Ci was not stressed at all and even said "meow" at He Xianmo.
He Xianmo made way for Zeng Xu and invited him in.
Zeng Xu saw that He Xianmo had just taken a shower and his hair had not yet been dried, so he casually chatted with him: "Going out to exercise?"
He Xianmo casually said "hmm" and changed the subject away from himself, "Why are you here? Are you not busy?"
"I was supposed to be with Dara today, but suddenly a friend of hers arrived yesterday, so I had free time." Zeng Xu chatted with He Xianmo as usual.
In fact, what he said were topics that the two of them would talk about on a daily basis. But after what happened last night, and then hearing Zhou Ruo's name from Zeng Xu's mouth, He Xianmo inevitably developed a shady mentality - -Is that the "friend who suddenly arrived" that Zeng Xu mentioned?
Regardless of whether it was him or not, it was a fact that Zhou walked freely between him and Zeng Xu.
He Xianmo stopped listening to what Zeng Xu said later, as this matter was all in his mind.
It wasn't until Zeng Xu called him that He Xianmo's attention reluctantly returned. He aimed his unfocused eyes at Zeng Xu and saw his eyes looking at him curiously.
"What's wrong with you? You're so absent-minded." After all, they have been friends for many years, and they understand each other very well.
Although He Xianmo usually talks little, he is always very attentive when listening to him and does not get distracted as much as he did just now. Moreover, he asked several questions without replying.
"Nothing." He Xianmo casually took off the towel hanging around his neck and wiped his hair to hide his emotions.
"Wait a minute -" Zeng Xu sharply saw the teeth marks on He Xianmo's neck. He immediately stepped forward and grabbed He Xianmo's arm, and nuzzled at his neck, "Arthur, what's going on?"
Zeng Xu's tone was extremely ambiguous, with a look of interest on his face, "Okay, you can act so fast."
He Xianmo: "..."
The incident happened suddenly. He Xianmo was stunned for more than ten seconds. After reacting, he immediately broke away from Zeng Xu and covered his neck with a towel again.
Zeng Xu thought He Xianmo was shy, so he didn't move to pull the towel, but his curiosity about this matter did not weaken.
Zeng Xu turned around and looked around He Xianmo's apartment, "Who was at your house last night?"
"No." He Xianmo denied.
"Oh - then there really is someone." Zeng Xu got another layer of information from his negative answer.
He Xianmo: "..."
It was difficult for him to cope with the current situation.
Growing up, he was not someone who was good at lying, not only to his parents, but also to his friends. Even if the truth sometimes didn't sound so good, he would still choose to tell the truth. The education he received since childhood made him think that lying is It is an extremely immoral act, so naturally one would not bother to do it.
He Xianmo's silence was regarded as shyness by Zeng Xu. Zeng Xu also knew that it was impossible for him to confess voluntarily, so he began to "interrogate": "Did she agree to be with you? It's not easy. It makes us charming." Arthur has been chasing him for so long."
He Xianmo denied: "We are not together."
Zeng Xu was speechless: "Then you..."
He Xianmo moved his eyes elsewhere, his voice calm: "This doesn't mean anything. Don't you and the women around you often talk to each other?"
"How can it be the same? We are just flirting. You are not chasing her. You really want to be with her.
What? "Zeng Xu looked at He Xianmo's somewhat downcast expression, "The other person doesn't want to be with you? Did he pull up his pants and disown him?"
He Xianmo's expression became a little darker, and his lips tightened into a line.
This reaction is basically equivalent to acquiescence.
Zeng Xu was even more surprised: "Who is this person?"
He Xianmo still didn't speak.
"Arthur, are you being deceived?" Zeng Xu thought about it and felt something was wrong, "Did you give her money? Where did you meet last night? Is there any suspicious equipment?"
In this regard, Zeng Xu still knows more than He Xianmo. He Xianmo has never gone out to play and is too "simple". He doesn't know how complicated people are outside. He has heard many things about cheating money in this way before, especially for those who He Xianmo, a person who usually has a very good reputation and is very concerned about his image——
If any photos or videos were taken and released, it would have a huge impact on his reputation.
"No." After He Xianmo learned what Zeng Xu was talking about, he immediately denied it: "She is richer than me."
"... Being richer than you doesn't mean that she won't make money through you." Zeng Xu held up his forehead, "Anyway, you should be careful. If the other party threatens you with this matter, you must keep your previous chat records and call records. Keep them all in good condition, and they will be used as evidence in any lawsuit."
He Xianmo looked at Zeng Xu analyzing the problem rationally and clearly, and naturally thought of Zhou Ruo at breakfast.
He had to admit that Zhou Ruo was very good at judging people.
She and Zeng Xu were really the same kind of people, and he could never compare to them.
"What is her profession? Do you know her background?" Zeng Xu reached out to He Xianmo, "Show me her WeChat account."
"No need." He Xianmo said, "She didn't lie to me, she just doesn't want to be with me."
Zeng Xu didn't quite believe it: "Why did I spend the night with you if I didn't want to be with you?"
Zeng Xu said this not because he thought that a woman sleeping with a man meant she wanted to be with him. He simply felt that based on his understanding of He Xianmo, he would never do it when he knew that the other person would not be with him. On the premise of officially starting a relationship, he still did such impulsive and outrageous things.
"I took the initiative." He Xianmo threw out four words like thunder, which shocked Zeng Xu so much that he almost sat down on the ground.
Zeng Xu didn't speak for two or three minutes. He was really shocked and his worldview was shocked.
"...Why?" He was curious about the reason.
"We won't contact her again in the future." He Xianmo answered the question, "There's no need to talk about her."
Zeng Xu could clearly read the sense of escape from He Xianmo's attitude. He patted He Xianmo on the shoulder and said, "Although you haven't even talked to me about her, I don't think you are the same kind of people. Stop your losses as soon as possible." .”
He Xianmo was silent for a few seconds and then asked Zeng Xu: "If you were me, what would you do?"
Zeng Xu: "It depends on what the situation is like on the other side. Is she not with you simply because she doesn't like you, or because she has someone else?"
He Xianmo didn't answer.
Zeng Xu did not delve into the answer to this question and continued: "If there are others, just forget it. You have different ideas and it will be a lot of trouble for you to get together."
