please save me save me

Chapter 1 chapter 1

"Qi Lin, you are too cruel!" In a small corner of a coffee shop with a comfortable environment, a woman with an exaggerated floral ornament on her head slapped the table and stood up.

With her large movements, the big bow tied on her hair trembled a few times.

The huge movement immediately attracted the attention of other guests, and they all turned their heads to look at the source of the sound.

They could only see the slender back of the man sitting opposite the woman.He kept shaking his legs slightly, looking very impatient.

"Ai Meijing, how many times do you want me to tell you that it is impossible for us to get back together." Qi Lin's voice was calm, and he only stared at his watch when he spoke.

Ai Meijing immediately softened her voice: "Oh, Qi Lin, I have already said that I was wrong, so please forgive me, please. I was too impulsive at that time, so I proposed to break up. You see, we are all together Seven years, nothing insurmountable, is there?"

Qi Lin finally raised his head, and Ai Meijing couldn't help shrinking back with his cold eyes.

"Yeah, we've been together for seven years, and you still think I have no money, so you took the initiative to break up with me." Qi Lin said, and looked away again.

Ai Meijing suddenly fell silent.

What Qi Lin said was the truth. At the beginning, I felt that Qi Lin was always not motivated and couldn't make any money throughout the year, so he made up his mind and proposed to break up, ending this long relationship.

"Okay," Qi Lin stood up, moved the chair, and made a sound, "I don't have time now, let's talk later."

Ai Meijing squirmed her lips, as if she wanted to say something to keep Qi Lin.Qi Lin interrupted her, stifling all the unspoken words: "However, it is impossible to compound this answer, and it will never change."

Qi Lin left his seat and waved to a waiter who was cleaning in the distance: "This table pays the bill."

The waiter quickly put down the work at hand, picked up the bill and ran over.

He was wearing the uniform uniform in the coffee shop, which looked monotonous, but because of the perfect fit, it still made people feel bright.

He ran up to Qi Lin, kept looking at the bill in his hand, and said in a pleasant voice, "Two cups of freshly ground coffee, a total of 60 yuan."

Qi Lin didn't listen to what the waiter said at all, his attention was all on the delicate bow tie on his chest and the glistening sweat beads on his forehead.

Qi Lin felt that there were many words stuck in his chest, and he was stuffy.After a long while, he finally uttered the name that still makes him feel guilty: "...Lu Xiumu."

The waiter suddenly looked up with a look of surprise.

"Qi...Qi Lin?"

Lu Xiumu suddenly felt a little unbelievable.He never thought that after so many years, he could see this face again.

Qi Lin scratched his head, awkwardly not knowing what to say.

Lu Xiumu was the first to break the deadlocked silence: "Will you... sit down?"

Qi Lin first looked at Ai Meijing, who was still sitting in the seat and was sullen, then looked at the watch on his wrist, and then nodded emphatically.

He sat in a relatively remote place, and Lu Xiumu brought up a plate of small cakes and sat opposite him.

Lu Xiumu's smile made Qi Lin feel that there was nothing to hide.He said, "It's been a long time since I saw you."

"En." Qi Lin replied lightly.

He forked a piece of cake and put it in his mouth.

He's never been so nervous.

He really didn't know what attitude he should use to face this talent in front of him.

Lu Xiumu didn't care about it at all, and continued on his own: "I really miss the old school, the old teachers, the old classmates. Do you still keep in touch? Are they okay?"

Do you really miss it? ——At that moment, a question like this popped up in Qi Lin's mind.

"I haven't contacted them for a long time, but there will be a class reunion in a while, if you miss them, you can go and see them." Qi Lin's tone was deliberately relaxed and hearty.

Lu Xiumu smiled: "Let's forget it, I changed schools halfway, maybe they don't have much impression of me anymore."

"But what a coincidence, I didn't expect you to be in Rong City." Qi Lin leaned heavily on the back of his chair.

"Well, after I transferred to another school, I moved here." In order not to look so restrained, Lu Xiumu also picked up a piece of cake, but he just took a bite, as if he didn't like the sweet taste, and Put it back.

"Are you... the waiter here?" Qi Lin looked at the logo engraved on the side of the table - "wonderland", which seemed to be the name of this coffee shop.

"Hahahaha..." Lu Xiumu let out a series of laughs, "No, I'm the boss here, and one of the waiters asked for leave. I didn't have enough manpower, so I came here to help."

"Oh." Qi Lin suddenly felt very embarrassed.

"But, I remember, the last time I passed by, was this a bar?" Qi Lin asked in a low voice, expressing his confusion.

"I run it with another person. It's a coffee shop during the day and a bar at night. This kind of business model is very common now."

Qi Lin nodded, expressing his understanding.

He turned his head, looked at the previous position, and found that Ai Meijing had left at some point.

"Is that your girlfriend?" Lu Xiumu asked casually.

"Ex-girlfriend. She asked me out today because she wanted to get back with me."

"Then why didn't you agree?"

Perhaps it was the little bit of guilt in his heart that had put him in a passive position.Or maybe it was because the troubles in his heart urgently needed to be confided to someone, but Qi Lin actually confided it in full detail.

"She, I see it through, she's just a full-fledged gold digger. I used to have no money, so I tried every means to get rid of me. Now that I start to make money, she starts to want to be with me again. Hmph, Only a fool would agree."

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Qi Lin always felt that Lu Xiumu let out a sigh of relief.

Qi Lin looked at his watch, and felt that for an "old friend" who hadn't reunited for a long time, the conversation was long enough.

He stood up and offered to leave.And took out his wallet, intending to pay the bill.

"No need, I'm the owner of this coffee shop, I can still afford this." Lu Xiumu waved his hand and refused.

Qi Lin knew that there was no point in persevering, so he silently took the wallet back.

"Will you come again?" Lu Xiumu shifted his gaze to him, and the light of Qi Yi shone in his dark eyes.

For some reason, Lu Xiumu's gentle smile always made Qi Lin's scalp tingle.

In fact, he never thought that he would meet Lu Xiumu again on this day.

Originally, he had already forgotten that period of memory, but when he met again, he realized that that period of time seemed to be just yesterday, as clear as a bright mirror.Every time Qi Lin turned his head to stare at it, he could clearly see the distorted image in the mirror.

All the time, not beating his heart.

Therefore, he really has no idea how to get along with Lu Xiu.

But if there is an opportunity to undo the unhappiness in the past and rebuild a relationship, Qi Lin feels that he can cherish this opportunity.

Think of it... as an apology for my various actions when I was young.

So he nodded solemnly: "The environment here is very good, I will come again."

He pushed open the glass door and walked out.

There was a huge temperature difference between the hot temperature under the scorching sun and the comfortable environment of the coffee shop just now, Qi Lin frowned due to the strong sense of discomfort.

But the moment he walked out the door, he still felt that a heavy burden had been lifted.

He walked slowly along the street, and the scorching heat waves from the ground made him sweat all over.

He inexplicably thought of the beads of sweat hanging on Lu Xiumu's forehead just now, and a very nonsensical idea popped into his mind - Lu Xiumu was so hot, why did he still wear such tight long sleeves, rolled up the sleeves a little, Everyone will feel better.

After walking for 10 minutes, Qi Lin returned to the company.

He suddenly discovered that Wonderland was quite close to his company.

He took the hot coffee from the secretary, walked into his office, sat on his seat, turned on the computer, but just stared at the computer screen in a daze until the coffee in the cup lost its heat.

Qi Lin suddenly felt that he was back to the time when he just graduated from university.Ambitiously following my friends, I wanted to start a construction company exclusively for myself, but I just ran into walls everywhere, and even ran into a liar, and the start-up capital was gone.

He had a tough time.

In the eyes of others, he is just a person with empty dreams and nothing to do.

It was also at this time that Ai Meijing chose to leave resolutely.

After that, he regained his confidence, started from scratch, moved to Rongcheng, and finally got a company of his own.

Although he is very small, he hasn't done any big business so far, and even everyone is a fledgling newcomer, but it is also his painstaking effort.

He has worked so hard for so many years.

Qi Lin sighed, broke away from the memory, and devoted himself to work.

The sunset glow dyed the whole sky red, and he didn't realize it.

There was a knock on the door, and a row of heads came out from the door.

"Boss, don't be busy, it's time to get off work."

Qi Lin showed a comfortable smile and put down the document in his hand.

These people are not only his employees, but also his partners.

"Why, where are you going to play after get off work?"

Those people started talking in a hurry.

"I really want to drink... Shall we go to the bar and relax?"

"Okay! Good idea! I know there's a new bar nearby. It's very popular. What's the name? It's a string of English names, which is quite compelling."

"It's called wonderland, low or low, I don't even know the word."

"Tch, I want you to take care of it."

"Hey, how did I remember that it was a coffee shop." A girl asked.

"You don't know that. Its business model is very special. It is a coffee shop during the day and a bar at night."

So, pairs of bright eyes looked expectantly at Qi Lin.

They said in unison: "Boss, let's go together!"

Qi Lin looked at the unfinished documents on the table, and said, "I may have to work overtime today, maybe tomorrow."

"Tch, boring, boss."

"Tomorrow, I'll treat you to the head office." Qi Lin said helplessly.

"OK!!!"

He then sent the group of people away.

After everyone got off work, the place suddenly became deserted.

Qi Lin stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, silently finishing the cold coffee in his cup.

The neon lights on the street are gradually turned on, and the night is really coming.

"Wonderland..."

Qi Lin pressed his forehead against the cold glass and uttered these words.

Leaves a large cloud of mist.

Then it gradually disappeared without leaving a trace.

Like it never existed.
