Chapter 268: Meet on the Qinhuai River
Chapter 268: Meeting on the Qinhuai River
"Dong Lu is worthy of being a person who has seen big scenes. These two things can cause hurricanes in the officialdom and business world, but Lu Dong is like a naughty boy playing. I have to admire Lu Dong's courage." Yang Fan said to Lu Yuansheng with his fists.
"Dr. Yang has been awarded too much!" Lu Yuansheng said lightly, "I wonder how Director Yang feels about our cooperation?"
"The conditions offered by Director Lu are really heart-warming, but..." Yang Fan smiled and stood up, saying to Lu Yuansheng, "I don't object to Director Lu's desire to enter Nanjing. But I can't make any promises to Director Lu. After all, the chairman of the company is not me now. I have resigned from my position in the company. As for the matter in the officialdom, I have no right to intervene. If nothing happens, I will say goodbye first."
After Yang Fan finished speaking, he walked out of the room.
Lu Yuansheng picked up the cup and a vicious sneer flashed across his face.
On the Qinhuai River, gusts of river wind blew up, blew up Yang Fan's hair. Yang Fan stood quietly by the river, looking at the Qinhuai River, which had no longer had the scenery of singing and dancing in the past, couldn't help but reach into his pocket, took out an exquisite lighter, lit the cigarette he bought from the stall just now, and took a sip, allowing the nicotine toxin to pass through his chest.
People who are familiar with Yang Fan should know that Yang Fan is not a person who often smokes, nor is he a smoker. Yang Fan only lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth when he is upset and indecisive. Yang Fan hopes to gradually calm the confused heart under the stimulation of nicotine, and his brain can make rational judgments.
But this time, Yang Fan was disappointed. After smoking a cigarette, Yang Fan's heart was still confused and his head was still in a daze. Just as Yang Fan was about to draw out the second cigarette from the cigarette box, a familiar and unfamiliar voice came from behind.
"In the past, you didn't smoke. Now I didn't expect your smoking addiction to it will be so great." The voice said.
"People always change one day! Just like you didn't wear high heels before, but now you always wear high heels." Yang Fan threw away the cigarette and turned around with a smile. Liu Qing's watery face once again reflected in Yang Fan's eyes through the dark curtain.
A faint bright red flashed across Liu Qingya's face, but it was covered up by the dark side and was not seen by Yang Fan.
"It's unreasonable! If you want to come, just follow me! I booked a private room in the restaurant." Liu Qingya said lightly. Without looking at Yang Fan's face too much, she turned her head and walked straight to the restaurant in front.
"Jinliu Hotel!" Yang Fan recited the four gold-inlaid characters on the hotel, "It turns out that this hotel is their Liu family's hotel."
Without a word, Liu Qingya walked in front, Yang Fan followed behind, and walked straight from the room upstairs.
Although this elegant room is not luxurious, it is very elegant. If you savor it carefully, the room also exudes a warmth of home. For Yang Fan, this taste is always gone but seems to have passed away.
After the waiters served the wine and food, Liu Qingya waved at them and sent them all out.
"You designed this room?" Yang Fan asked Liu Qingya with a smile on his face.
Liu Qingya did not answer, but took the red wine and handed it to Yang Fan and poured it on her.
"Come on, I'll toast to our true reunion!" Liu Qingya raised her glass and said.
"I should really have a drink!" Yang Fan raised his glass and responded with a faint smile on his face to try to hide his excitement and anxiety.
Liu Qingya suddenly pulled the wine glass back and said with a smile: "But before doing it, I want to ask you a question. What should I call you now? Should I call you Yang Fan better? Or should I ask you Bufan to speak more easily?"
Was stunned! Liu Qingya's words were like a bolt from the blue. A lightning flashed suddenly to make Yang Fan stunned. The goblet in his hand stopped there, neither stretched forward nor took it back, and the discolored face did not have the same calmness as before.
"Please tell me, is it better, Yang Fan or Bu Fan?" Liu Qingya said cold words, and the original concealed smile on her face disappeared without a trace.
Yang Fan took back the wine glass that was parked in the air and said apologetically: "Qingya, listen to me to explain it to you."
When the line "Listen to me to explain it to you" appeared in the TV series, it was once despised by Yang Fan countless times, but now it flows out of Yang Fan's mouth.
"Explanation? I'm just an old friend you don't want to mention. Why do you explain to me? What are you explaining to me? Explain why you choose Lin Jiani and Yang Wanru? I tell you, no, no! You just need to answer the question I just now! If you don't want to answer, you can refuse." Liu Qingya looked at Yang Fan with a sneer, and a line of clear tears passed through her face like water.
"Hey! You'd better call me Bufan!" Yang Fan sighed helplessly, picked up the wine glass in his hand and drank the red wine in the glass in one go.
"Okay!" Liu Qingya gently wiped the tears on her face, and a "smile" appeared again on her face, and said softly, "Cheer to us to meet again on this Qixi Festival night in six years, and to gather by the Qinhuai River!"
Without waiting for Yang Fan, Liu Qingya took the lead in drinking all the red wine in the glass in one sip, and then leaned on the chair weakly.
After a brief silence, Liu Qingya slowly opened her mouth and asked Yang Fan: "Bufan, do you believe in fate?"
"If you don't believe it, I never believe in any destiny, but fate has forced me to believe it again and again." Yang Fan replied lightly, his tone full of helplessness.
"I don't believe it either, but fate makes us really helpless!" Liu Qingya held the wine glass and looked at the shadow reflected in the red wine, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Qingya, actually I..." Yang Fan was about to explain to Liu Qingya, but was stopped by Liu Qingya.
"Don't say anything, okay? I've heard Ni Mutian say about your experience." Liu Qingya said lightly, her voice so gentle that if she didn't listen carefully, she wouldn't be able to hear it clearly.
Yang Fan nodded and continued to remain silent.
"Bufan, do you believe in the same words as you are in harmony?" Liu Qingya asked gently. Her bright red lips were more sexy because they moistened the red wine, and a fragrance came from her mouth from time to time.
Without waiting for Yang Fan to answer, Liu Qingya replied: "I believe! After you had an accident, we should have met for the first time in the Mu family's company! Although your appearance and temperament have changed a lot, the taste on you is so familiar to me. When I talk to you, I really want to ask you: Do you still recognize me? But I didn't ask! Bufan, do you know why?" Liu Qingya said, picking up the wine glass and drinking all the red wine in the glass.
"Why?" Although Yang Fan knew that the answer Liu Qingya was about to say might make him feel painful, he still asked. Sometimes, pain is not the most painful.
"When I was about to ask you, Lin Jiani emerged from behind you." Liu Qingya paused and continued, "You know what kind of woman she is. She is a woman who makes all women jealous and makes all crazy."
"But you are equally excellent, or just as perfect." Yang Fan said lightly.
Both women are women he loves deeply. He does not want to belittle the other to please one woman. Therefore, Yang Fan chose the words "same" and "same".
"No, it wasn't then, nor now!" Liu Qingya shook her head helplessly and said seriously, "Although I hope it is and long for it is, the truth is not!"
"But in my heart is!" Yang Fan said firmly.
Hearing Yang Fan's words, a hint of excitement flashed through Liu Qingya's eyes. It is something to be recognized and praised by her lover, both for women and for men.
"When Lin Jiani walked to you, I changed my mind. Because I thought if you were really the Bufan in my heart, you would not have teased other women in front of me." Liu Qingya said with a lip lightly biting her lips.
"I'm sorry, I disappointed you!" Yang Fan's face suddenly dimmed when he heard Liu Qingya's words, and he said to Liu Qingya guiltily.
"Things have passed. Are you always going to change if you are not human? Besides, Lin Jiani is indeed a nearly perfect woman." Liu Qingya smiled, but anyone could see the bitterness in her smile.
After a while, Liu Qingya continued to ask: "Bufan, if I asked at that time, what would you answer me? Acknowledge or refuse?"
"I don't want to lie to you. If you asked at that time, I would refuse. Because I have promised my grandfather that I will not tell you and the people at home within five years." Yang Fan said lightly.
"Thank you for telling me the truth! I'll give you a cup for this!" Liu Qingya raised her glass to Yang Fan and said.
Yang Fan did not raise his glass, but whispered: "Qingya, actually the first time I saw you was not that time. Do you still remember that Christmas night that year?"
"Christmas? I remember that night I seemed to go out with my classmates." Liu Qingya said to Yang Fan while recalling.
"Not bad! I went out that night too. Originally, the Mu family held a banquet. But I and Xiaoxue insisted on pulling me out for shopping. So, I, Jiani, and Xiaoxue drove to Wangfujing in a car. I sat in the car and saw you again from the window. You are still so beautiful!" Yang Fan couldn't help but think of that night, and his eyes couldn't help but become wet. He raised the bar and let the bright red wine flow through his throat with some sobs.
"Oh!" Liu Qingya nodded silently, savored the red wine in the glass, and said nothing.
"Qingya, although you don't want to hear some things, I have to say..." Yang Fan was about to speak, but Liu Qingya stopped him.
"You need to say it, I know it! Bufan, if it weren't for the arrangement of fate, without that change, what would you think we look like now?" Liu Qingya stared at Yang Fan with big eyes and asked curiously.
"What would it look like? Perhaps we have graduated from college and each found an ideal job. Then we started saving money, preparing to buy a house, and a car..." Yang Fan kept imagining as Liu Qingya's words, as if we were back to the happy and peaceful high school era in the past.
