Sister, don't go

Chapter 65

Lin Xia didn't expect that the restaurant where she had a gathering with her colleagues on Friday night was the same as sister Xi's.

Sister Xi was promoted to the creative director of the North China region as she wished, and invited her colleagues to dinner as usual.Originally, Lin Xia didn't want to attend the gathering of colleagues, but wanted to stay at home with Sister Xi and her aunt. After receiving a call from Sister Xi that she couldn't come back at night, Lin Xia had no intention of going home and agreed to the invitation of her colleagues.

It's okay to go out for a high after a busy week.Lin Xia is not like Sister Xi, who can handle both sides and handle things with ease when there are many people. She just stays quietly in the corner, and if she doesn't speak, others will never notice that there is someone else here.When I was in college, I was relatively active, and I could laugh freely in the crowd. After work, I was not so comfortable laughing when facing the various thoughts of the other party.Since she doesn't want to laugh, she keeps her mouth shut and doesn't even say a word, she doesn't want to act happy to cater to others, she only wants to be her Lin Xia.

She was a little restless, because when she came, she saw Sister Xi's white Volvo parked at the entrance of the hotel, and when she came in, she paid special attention to each private room, hoping to hear a familiar voice through the door.Sister Xi has been too busy to see anyone recently, and she always comes back after 9 o'clock in the evening. She is exhausted and falls asleep after taking a bath.After taking a shower, Lin Xia excitedly ran to the bedroom and found that she was already sound asleep. She gently lifted the quilt to cover her chest, and said to Sister Xi who had her eyes closed tightly: Be careful of catching cold at night, good night.

She excused herself to go to the bathroom, stepped out of the dining table, and walked down the corridor, keeping an eye out for everyone who passed.This is a Cambodian restaurant, each private room is separated by a Chinese-style screen, and in front of the screen is a porch made of bamboo compendiums.Lin Xia pretended to pass by inadvertently, looking through the gap in the bamboo slip door, and glanced inside across the screen.

Friday night is a good time for office workers to gather. The private rooms have almost the same scenery, bright men and women, drinking and clinking glasses, and the women's charming laughter can be heard from time to time.After looking at the first private room, Lin Xia stopped at the innermost private room on the second floor, because she heard the voice of Sister Xi among the laughter of a group of women inside.

She stopped, put her ears on the bamboo door in shock, and carefully discerned the nature of the sound, but after a long time, she didn't hear the sound again, so she simply changed her posture and peered in through the gaps in the bamboo slips.Needless to say, this posture is too obscene/trivial. Lin Xiagang felt embarrassed and was about to leave when he was startled by the sudden opening of the bamboo door. He staggered, took a step with his front legs, and bumped into the waiter who was going out.

Lin Xia blushed and apologized to the surprised waitress.The waitress was holding an empty plate, with a look of looking at a thief, and looked up and down Lin Xia, who was sneaking and listening to the wall just now. She walked forward without chewing, thinking something was wrong, and stared back at Lin Xia with a strange expression. Xia took a few glances.

Lin Xia was ashamed, as if she had really done something bad and was found out, but she obviously didn't do anything, so why is she so guilty.Lin Xia shook her head, closed the bamboo door that the waitress forgot to close just now due to fright, and subconsciously glanced inside.

She slammed the door hard, and ran towards the hotel door without thinking. No matter how the people behind shouted, she didn't stop, but ran faster and faster.She ran out of the hotel and ran crazily along the road against the crowd. If she could forget the scene just now, she would rather never stop.But no matter how you dodge, the picture in your mind is lingering:

Sister Xi held the wine glass between her fingers, put her hand on the shoulder of a fat man with a swollen face, raised the wine glass with a coquettish smile, and filled the fat man with wine.The fat man took the wine glass with both hands, covered sister Xi's hand holding the glass with his hands, and waited for a few seconds before raising his neck and drinking it all comfortably. An expression that wanted to eat her up.

Lin Xia felt that she had been greatly insulted. She couldn't push that man away, and she couldn't drag Miss Xi away in public. What reason and qualification did she have?Open the door and go in, tell them, this is my girlfriend, I want to take her away?Or shake face at Sister Xi face to face and ask her, why do you want to do this?She couldn't bear it, couldn't bear to treat sister Xi like this.

She could only run away by herself, far away, find a safe place, and hide.

Baixi put down his wine glass in disgust, wiped the hand touched by the vice president on the tablecloth, raised his head inadvertently, and looked through the screen, just in front of the pair of crystal-clear eyes mixed with anger, resentment, and grief at the door. Eyes, her heart stabbed sharply, and she grabbed one place, which was as uncomfortable as being torn.

"I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry, so I'm leaving first. Eat and drink with me, and I've settled the bill." Bai Xi picked up his bag while talking, and ran out in a hurry.A table full of astonishment was left behind.The subordinates are thinking, I have never seen the director so calm, today is considered knowledgeable; the peers are thinking, they don’t pay attention to us when they are just promoted, and leave as soon as they say it; Yuanchang murmured to himself, this Baixi, why is she so hasty in handling things, she has to accompany the guests well, let everyone have fun, that's good, put down a table, pat their buttocks and leave.

Bai Xi ran out of the private room, and in the long corridor, two kinds of footsteps sounded, one front and one back, one high and one low, reverberating in the corridor, with echoes from time to time, chaotic and chaotic, as if to shake the whole building down.

Bai Xi was wearing high heels, and Lin Xia was wearing white sneakers.The distance between Bai Xi and Lin Xia was getting farther and farther, Bai Xi panted heavily, and shouted with difficulty from behind, "Lin Xia, stop!" But the person in front seemed to have not heard it, ignored it, and ran further and further faster.She ran out of the restaurant and walked against the current on the sidewalk. The electric cars and tricycles delivering food were speeding towards her. She was frightened by this rampant woman who was running wildly and stopped on the side of the road, for fear that she would be hit by the force of her running. damage your own car.

Bai Xi called Lin Xia's name loudly on the road. She didn't care about the curious eyes of the people around her, and she couldn't feel the pain of being tortured by the high heels under her feet. The sadness and determination passed on to her by others.Bai Xi knew that Lin Xia was a stubborn donkey, she was determined to do anything, she was really worried that Lin Xia would do something out of the ordinary!

Lin Xia heard someone calling her like a madman from behind, and she knew that person was Sister Xi, but her legs seemed to be ordered, as if a motor was installed, she ran forward on her own, unconscious land.

Finally, she stopped abruptly at a crossroad with a red light, her heart beating violently, she looked at the passing vehicles, silently lost in thought, not knowing what she was going to do.The scene through the bamboo gate came to her mind clearly again. She saw Sister Xi's hand obediently resting on the shoulder of the fat man with a swollen face and blurred eyes, and let the other hand be held by the fat man. , I can't see any resistance at all, Sister Xi's winking eyes are like silk, and her laughter is gentle...

She heard Sister Xi's footsteps getting closer and closer. She didn't want Sister Xi to find her. Now her mind was in a mess and she didn't know how to face Sister Xi.She was looking forward to the street lights coming on soon so that she could get rid of sister Xi. 9 seconds, 8 seconds, 7 seconds, the green light at the intersection was constantly changing numbers.

Looking at Lin Xia who was running quickly in front without looking back, Bai Xi remembered the afternoon when she was waiting for Lin Xia to go to the appointment in the studio. The sky was clouded with gloom, and she stared at the unfinished painting for three full hours. , Thinking of Lin Xia saying goodbye without looking back, thinking of looking forward to Lin Xia’s sudden appearance at the airport, but the hopeless mood never came, thinking of the nights in Paris, I often saw Lin Xia walking in front of me in my dreams. just can't catch...

The current scene is very similar to the scene in the dream. In the dark night shrouded in white mist, Lin Xia walked forward without looking back. Bai Xi followed a step, she took a step, turned a corner, and the person disappeared. Bai Xi stretched out his hand in the darkness to grab her, spread his fingers, and there was only air left...

A kind of unreasonable fear occupied the whole chest, yes, she was afraid!Even though she is with Lin Xia, she is still afraid, too many factors can separate them, and most of those factors are out of her control, she can't predict how many Lin Xia's parents and Lin's censures she can block, she can't It is impossible to predict whether there will be a better man than her who can marry Lin Xia in a fair and honest way. It is impossible to predict how much pressure Lin Xia can bear, and whether she can give what Lin Xia wants... All she can control is Next manage their lives and give Lin Xia the best care.

It is said that falling in love is easy but staying together is difficult. She wants to reduce those "difficult staying together" factors to as few as possible. She is doing this. Originally aloof and aloof, she has learned to bend and sway, and to be scheming. Stand on a commanding height and give Lin Xia the best protection.

The heel of the high-heeled shoes oozes blood, staining the black leather surface red, and her steps become staggering. Two weeks of overtime work has made her body a little unbearable. Today, she didn’t eat all day, and the table was full at night. She didn't eat a few mouthfuls of food, and toasted one to the other. Drinking on an empty stomach made her stomach feel uncomfortable again.After running for a while, she was exhausted and out of breath, her legs were as heavy as lead, she really wanted to stop, but her will told her not to, she would never let Lin Xia run away...

She saw Lin Xia stop at the crossroad ahead, she froze for a moment before she realized that she had encountered a red light.She couldn't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. She was so tired that she wanted to collapse on the local Baixi River. As if empowered by an angel, she was refreshed. She threw away her high heels decisively and chased along the sidewalk barefoot.She ran very fast, the warm summer wind whistled in her ears, she felt that she was getting closer and closer to the stubborn child in front, and could even smell the warm smell on her body, so that no matter how hard she tried, she could touch it The feeling made her feel like a spring breeze, as if she would melt into the wind the next moment.

She noticed that Lin Xia looked back and began to become restless, her feet were rubbing against the ground alternately, at this time the green indicator light was pointing to 5, she could reach it in only ten meters, and she could hug Lin Xia into her arms , tightly hooped, not allowing her a chance to escape.

But an astonishing scene appeared in front of her eyes. The stubborn child couldn't wait for the street lights to turn on, so she ran towards the opposite side of the road, but she didn't pay attention to a red sports car on the left side of the cross road. Across the road, and all this is overlooked by the white creek in the open area behind.Her head shook with a bang, and she was as blank as a sheet of paper for a moment. Her legs seemed to have wings attached, and she flew forward lightly and uncontrollably. What can be concluded is that she has never had and will never have such a speed in the future.

She crossed the crowd waiting on the side of the road, straightened her arms, grabbed the man's arm, and pulled her back. The forward inertia of her body was too great, and she had to cling to the ground as rough as sandpaper with her feet, even In this way, the feet still slipped a few steps forward.She almost dragged Lin Xia back several steps. Lin Xia leaned back and sat on Bai Xi behind him, leading Bai Xi to the ground. The red car whizzed by their feet. Pass.

At this time, the green light came on, the pedestrians waiting on the side of the road hurried forward, the tram started again, and passed the road in the blink of an eye.
