The cigarette was lit, and Yang Xu stepped back again, wiping her hair and looking at him.
Zhang Yuanqing took out a puff of cigarette and finally admitted his inner thoughts: "Yang Xu, I am indeed attracted to you. However, I can't believe you. In other words, I can't believe anyone emotionally."
Yang Xu looked very surprised after hearing this answer: "Why, don't we two know the basics?"
Zhang Yuanqing first told Yang Xu about his last girlfriend Liu Ting. He omitted the part where he used the other party as a pastime. After all, this had nothing to do with the topic of his speech. Of course, I don’t want to show my dark side.
Zhang Yuanqing emphatically mentioned that he was stabbed in the back by her, that she showed mercy when they were together, and that through the tea box incident, he was tricked directly into the funeral parlor.
Zhang Yuanqing said slowly: "I have been in love with her for nearly a year. Not only did I almost encounter my father-in-law, but she also almost sent me to the Discipline Inspection Commission. Even though I was careful, I was tricked by her. So I have a lot of respect for the women around me. Very cautious, and you showed up at a perfect coincidence!”
Zhang Yuanqing didn't say what the coincidence was, he believed Yang Xu could understand.
Zhang Yuanqing then stared at her with stern eyes: "Also, that night, after I left the hotel, I thought about it for a long time and was ready to come to you. But I found that you took a taxi out by yourself."
Yang Xu was surprised to hear Zhang Yuanqing's experience, especially when he found out that he had left the hotel. At this moment, she finally understood why Zhang Yuanqing's attitude changed.
In this matter, she did not blame the other party at all, but showed regret and apology on her face.
Yang Xu ignored Zhang Yuanqing's mist and took the initiative to sit over: "Yuanqing blames me for not telling you some things. In fact, I concealed something. I'm afraid you will have other ideas after knowing it, no. He was willing to accept me again, so he never said anything. Unexpectedly, this incident almost caused a misunderstanding."
Zhang Yuanqing looked at her, her eyes did not dodge at all, and she said a woman's name: "Xia Jinyu."
Yang Xu also wanted to see his reaction to the name, but Zhang Yuanqing showed no reaction at all.
As for Xia Jinyu, Zhang Yuanqing will not have any mood swings after hearing any news now. The last time they met in the provincial capital, the two of them settled.
Only then did Yang Xu tell the story she had been hiding.
It turned out that after Xia Jinyu went to study abroad, she had been in contact with Yang Xu. And Yang Xu was able to join the Discipline Inspection Commission in Changxi County because of the connections Xia Jinyu helped her find.
Xia Jinyu hoped that Yang Xu could help her understand Zhang Yuanqing's current situation.
Although Yang Xu has low self-esteem emotionally, she has been secretly paying attention to Zhang Yuanqing. In addition, the conditions given by Xia Jinyu were too good, so she has always held this role. This also explains why Yang Xu did not take the initiative to find Zhang Yuanqing in three years.
On the one hand, it was Xia Jinyu's request, and on the other hand, it was the inferiority complex in her heart. She felt that only someone like Xia Jinyu was worthy of him.
Yang Xu followed all Zhang Yuanqing's situations through various channels. Including that he was admitted to the Municipal Party Committee Office and later served as Secretary Jin's secretary.
It was only when Zhang Yuanqing was serving as Secretary Jin's secretary that he found a girlfriend, Liu Ting. After this incident happened, Xia Jinyu temporarily cut off contact with Yang Xu.
At that time, Yang Xu even suspected that Xia Jinyu was coming back to find Zhang Yuanqing. But after not hearing from Xia Jinyu for a long time, she understood that the other party had completely given up.
Yang Xu originally liked Zhang Yuanqing, and then she continued to collect information about Zhang Yuanqing, which made it even more difficult for her to extricate herself. In fact, she also imagined how great it would be if she had the chance.
But he did not expect that at this time, a God-given opportunity would come. The death of Secretary Jin caused Zhang Yuanqing to plummet and was sent to a funeral parlor.
Yang Xu also found out through some channels that Liu Ting had told others that she and Zhang Yuanqing had broken up. So she knew that her opportunity had come, and she attended the class reunion with Lian Shanshui.
But I didn't expect that when I attended the class reunion, I learned that Zhang Yuanqing had been activated again. Yang Xu felt that she was not worthy, so she suppressed her inner emotions.
Until the day Zhou Qiangbin invited him to dinner, with Zhou Qiangbin's help, Yang Xu took advantage of the wine and said those words.
It almost fell into place, but unexpectedly, due to some small things, I almost missed it again.
"So you went out that night because it had something to do with Xia Jinyu?" Zhang Yuanqing asked with a frown.
Yang Xu took out her mobile phone and pulled out the messages at that time and explained: "After you left, I confessed to Xia Jinyu that I wanted to be with you. Xia Jinyu asked me to go to the provincial capital, and I took a taxi to the province that night. Cheng, tell her everything in person."
Yang Xu confessed to Zhang Yuanqing: "Everything I said Yuanqing is true. If you don't believe it, you can verify it. My heart and my body are all innocent."
"You haven't been in love in all these years?" Zhang Yuanqing asked in surprise.
Although Yang Xu said that he has always been in his heart, isn't it the case with many people? There is someone living in his heart and someone pressing on his body.
Zhang Yuanqing is not a young man who is just starting out. He has emotional experience himself, but he wants others to be blank.
But if Yang Xu is really blank so far, then the meaning to him is very different.
Yang Xu didn't say anything. She took off her autumn clothes and trousers in front of Zhang Yuanqing. She showed him both shyly and proudly.
"Yuan Qing, I have known you for seven years, and I have loved you for six years. I have a treasured gift that I have always wanted to give to you."
If he is still not moved at this time, Zhang Yuanqing will basically be a useless person.
Zhang Yuanqing gently held her in his arms and looked directly into her eyes. The two people looked at each other, and Yang Xu's loving eyes made him temporarily give up all worries and just wanted to have her.
However, Zhang Yuanqing restrained his primitive impulse and resisted the urge to ravage her.
"I can't give you anything now, and you know the path I'm taking. Tomorrow I will return to Jiangbei and enter a game that involves life, death and the future. If I can escape unscathed, I will be able to Give you a bright future. If I fail completely, maybe I will be gone. I hope your most precious gift can be given to a true lover."
Zhang Yuanqing opened his heart and was completely moved by Yang Xu. How dare he let down six years of deep love. In a girl's best years, she only has herself in her heart.
Zhang Yuanqing is naturally even less likely to be casual with her. She is different from a woman like Liu Ting. A woman like that is just acting for the occasion, as long as she is useful.
However, Yang Xu's forbearance and humbleness made him unable to bear to treat her frivolously. So he was willing to give her a promise, a promise to truly be together with her.
Why not now? This is Zhang Yuanqing's responsibility to her.
Yang Xu sighed: "Even if I have no regrets, are you still so persistent?"
"Because it's too precious, I can't bear to take it apart easily. Give me three months."
Three months is neither long nor short. Zhang Yuanqing believes that this time is enough for the dust to settle in Jiangbei City. Even if things don't work out, he will leave with Yang Xu.
Yang Xu could feel the sincerity in Zhang Yuanqing's words, so he no longer forced it, but leaned into his ear: "If you can't bear to take it apart easily, you can try another way and taste part of it."
Um? Zhang Yuanqing was stunned for a moment, not knowing how she said it.
Then Yang Xu's body slowly slid down and surrendered at his feet. She faced him with the most pious attitude, like a pilgrim.
In Zhang Yuanqing's mind, he remembered an ancient poem: Twenty-Four Bridges on a Moonlit Night...
At this moment, the moon is full outside the window.
