Chapter 53

"Star... Starry Sky." Chen Wanwan moved her body from the chair. She had not yet come back to her senses from the shock. Xu Xingkong looked at her opposite, and she felt like she was dreaming.

How did Xu Xingkong and Huaijing meet? How did they get to this point? If she could have a snack on Xu Xingkong and encircle her in advance, perhaps she would not have fallen into this situation now.

But Xu Xingkong deliberately hid it from her, can she find out?

Even if she discovered it, can she stop it?

Chen Wanwan has known Xu Xingkong for so many years, but she didn't expect that she was such an extreme person. She was either conservative and feudal or rebellious, and there was no transition in the middle, and she caught her off guard.

Chen Wanwan looked at Xu Xingkong, and there were thousands of words in her throat, but in the end they all became silence.

Xu Xingkong only has two relationships, a cheating period of Wang Shunsheng made her fragile and sensitive. She finally fell in love with someone again, but fell in love with the one that would only hurt her more deeply.

Chen Wanwan did not hold her in time to avoid starting, so she had to cut off her in time and not let her fall into deeper pain. This was torment for Chen Wanwan, especially when she saw the light that Xu Xingkong looked forward to her support in her eyes, it was like a jumping little flame. She hoped that she would encourage and support her and let the fire burn more vigorously, but she used a basin of water to extinguish the flame.

"No, no starry sky." Chen Wanwan's throat was sore. After she repeated it, she asked directly: "Does he love you? If he loves you, will he marry you?"

Chen Wanwan spoke aggressively, and the two questions she asked Xu Xingkong's eyes jumped. Her mind became messy again, and the sunlight gradually tilted up to her fingers on the table. She looked down at the sunlight at the fingertips, and her voice gradually became smaller.

"I think...he has a good impression of me."

Otherwise, he wouldn't buy her candy, wouldn't take her to meet her idol, or even make her ginger candy water. They are fucking friends, not friends, and not lovers.

After thinking clearly about your feelings and recalling the life with Huaijing, it turned out to be so beautiful.

"The favorable feeling will not last for a lifetime." Chen Wanwan's words broke the screen of her memory replay like a heavy punch. Xu Xingkong raised his eyes to look at Chen Wanwan.

A friend who has always been smiling, with big eyes filled with heartache and helplessness and determination, she said cautiously: "If you like Senior Bai Zhu, I will encourage you to pursue it, and even help you to pursue it. But Mr. Huai... Starry Sky, we are all ordinary people, different from what they pursue, and I don't want you to be hurt. Just like this time..."

"Stop talking." Xu Xingkong stopped Chen Wanwan.

As an outsider, Chen Wanwan is always much more rational than her. Reason is often hurtful. After hearing these words, Xu Xingkong has figured it out and doesn’t need to continue listening.

"Senior Bai Zhu also knows that he asked me to come to my best friend to make an idea. You are my best friend, and I know that you advise me for my own good."

Xu Xingkong smiled and said to Chen Wanwan.

Xu Xingkong's words made Chen Wanwan tighten her teeth.

Withdrew his fingers on the table, Xu Xingkong looked up at the sunlight outside the window. The dazzling sunlight surrounded a more dazzling aperture. Xu Xingkong's heart suddenly became empty and he felt nothing again.

"I know what to do."

The weather gradually warmed up and the sky became darker and slower. I remember when I came home from get off work, Huaijing was waiting for her at the door of Hefeng's apartment, it was dark.

Although the sun has set today, the sky is still white, brighter than the lights, and is not as warm as the lights.

Xu Xingkong stood in front of the IO building and just refused the sixth taxi driver today who asked her where to go. Chen Wanwan's car was parked in the parking lot not far away. She was sitting inside and looking at her.

Xu Xingkong's phone still had 50% battery power. The string of phone numbers he memorized had already entered the dialing keyboard of the phone. Her throat tightened, looked at the sky gradually getting darker, her fingertips trembled slightly, and she pressed to dial.

The phone didn't ring twice, and when Xu Xingkong was gradually hanging, the phone was answered. The man's voice was low and magnetic, like the spring breeze squirting across the fields. He seemed to be a little surprised, with a smile in his words.

"How do you call me on your own initiative?"

Looking back on when the two were together, she rarely called him on his own initiative. Although they were friends with sex, it was more like he kept her.

With one call, he was able to make an appointment with her and pick her up.

And every time, she is willing.

"Yeah." The beating of the heart beats the eardrums, but the heart feels a little cramped. She said to the person on the other side of the phone: "Do you have time? I want to meet you."

The other end of the phone was silent for a while, and finally, he refused directly.

"Can't."

The more critical the time comes, the more cautious you should be. Huai Yanghan fails to seek cooperation with him, and he will definitely find an opportunity to fight back. If he wants to fight back, he may attack her.

Since the last time he said he wanted to introduce Tang Qingqi to him, Huai Yanghan sent someone to follow him, and he could not meet Xu Xingkong.

During this last period, he must keep his composure. He has been waiting for so long and cannot be overturned by Huai Yanghan at the last moment.

"Oh." The woman responded with a tight voice. Later, she smiled and said, "I mainly want to tell you that my brother is going to get married."

This is a very happy thing. She is also very happy, and her words are filled with joy. Huaijing was also infected and said with a smile: "Really? Then I..."

"Didn't you say last time that my brother is engaged to me even younger than me, are I so embarrassed?" Xu Xingkong interrupted him and looked at the LED screen on the building opposite. She smiled and said, "I'm really embarrassed. I'm not young anymore, and I want to get married too. So..."

The woman paused and then smiled again, as if she was holding a knife and stabbed Huaijing in the heart.

"Let's break. I have someone I like. I want to fall in love and get married."

The office was not turned on, and the light from the sky was shining through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and stars gradually flashed in the sky. However, Huaijing seemed to be put into a dark hell, and her eyes were dark and there was no trace of light.

Before he could respond, the woman Xu Xu added, "I'm sorry, I wanted to say it to you in person, but I was too anxious. Our relationship is unfair to the people I like... to the people I like, so it's so hasty..."

"Is it the painter named Bai Zhu?" Huaijing interrupted her as the woman threw the knife one by one without knowingly.

The woman was stunned for a moment, and after a while of silence, she whispered: "Yes, I'm sorry."

The other end of the phone fell silent. Xu Xingkong stepped on a small stone on the ground and shouted softly.

"Hello?"

"Yes." The man responded and said in a deep voice: "I wish you happiness."

Such a happy blessing made Xu Xingkong's heart a little twisted. She thought at first that he was thinking about whether he had a good impression of him and tried to fight for it, but now she felt that it was the right thing to not fight for it.

She opened her mouth, her throat was sore, and after a while, she replied.

"I wish you happiness too."

When Xu Xingkong hung up the phone, it was already completely dark. All the cars on the road had turned on and all the street lights on the road were turned on, lighting up the originally dark city.

Xu Xingkong stood in the light, with dry eyes. She looked up at the top floor of the IO building. The windows on the top floor reflected the light from the ground, and nothing could be seen inside.

That's it, it's completely over.

Perhaps it was because the incident happened too suddenly, Xu Xingkong had no feeling except numbness. She walked to Chen Wanwan's car, opened the door and got in.

In the driver's seat, Chen Wanwan turned around and looked at her.

Xu Xingkong met her gaze, smiled on his lips, and had an empty begging in his eyes.

"Send me to the train station. I want to go home."

It was already dark. When Leo brought the documents into Huaijing's office, he found that the lights were not on in the office.

In the office without lights, it looks much darker than outdoors. In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, the light outside is a little light that allows people to see clearly the outline of the office chair by the window.

The man sat on a chair, looked up at the window, wondering what he was thinking.

Leo took the documents and walked to the desk, putting the things in his hand on the table. The folder lightly clamped the desktop, and a crisp sound was a bit abrupt in this dark office.

"Mr. Huai, the evidence is complete. Lawyer Zhou has already said hello and can start."

After Leo finished speaking, the man on the office chair did not move at all. He raised his eyes, noticed something was wrong, and shouted softly.

"Mr. Huai..."

"Yes." The man seemed to finally hear it, and after responding, he arranged in a deep voice: "Take the evidence to the mansion and show my grandma."

"Okay." After following the arrangement, Leo continued to ask, "The charity dinner next week, about Miss Xu..."

In the past six months, he not only prepared how to put Huaichangchao in prison, but also prepared to take over everything about Huai's family. Xu Xingkong... was added recently, so he was a little hasty.

"No need." Huaijing said.

Leo's expression was shocked.

He was not easy to ask too much about the boss's affairs. Leo frowned and prepared to go to the mansion with the information. Just as he was about to leave, the man in the seat suddenly stood up.

The man's tall and slender figure seemed to block the light outside the window, leaving only the coldness that emanated from his body in this office.

He stood with his backlight, his facial features were a little blurred.

Leo looked tight and asked with the information: "Do you want to go back to the mansion together?"

Huaijing walked to the door. Leo couldn't see his expression clearly. He put his hand on the door handle and said in a deep voice.

"I'll go see my mom."

After saying that, the man opened the office door, got up and walked out.

He once told Huaiguan that you kids miss your mother, and we adults want others.

Now, he has nothing else.

When he was most vulnerable, he was just a child.

Qingping Temple at night is even more solemn and solemn under the darkness. Today, the time to receive pilgrims has ended, and the monks in the temple are chanting scriptures in the lobby.

Incense is wrapped around, the lights are bright, the Buddha in the center of the lobby is compassionate and peaceful, and the monks in the lobby look pious and solemn.

The lobby was not closed, and the lights spread from the door to the incense burner in the center. The golden light, like the holy light of the Buddha, makes people's restless hearts return to peace.

Huaijing stood under the holy light, the golden light coated his face with a layer of golden shadow, and his facial features became particularly soft. He was wearing a black suit, standing under the golden light, and the long black shadow extended from behind his feet to the darkness that the light could not touch.

He looked up at the monks in the lobby, and in the first row near the door, he saw his mother sitting cross-legged on a futon and chanting Buddhist beads.

The son is the mother.
