Chapter 59
Chapter 59
Zhao Lu often thinks wildly at night, but rarely makes decisions at night.On a whim, she asked Trish to pretend to be her girlfriend, but she regretted it when she woke up the next day.
It was a stupid and naive decision, and if she messed it up, she might lose even worse.
She hurriedly picked up her mobile phone and said to Tracy, "Forget it, I'll go by myself."
Trish: "What's wrong?"
Zhao Lu told her his concerns.
After hearing this, Cui Qian became interested, and half-truthfully said: "I'm quite happy to do this kind of thing."
Zhao Lu didn't understand, so: "Why?"
Trish candidly said, "I want to meet her."
Zhao Lu: "..."
Trish: "I want to see what is the charm of this person you can't forget."
Zhao Lu didn't know what was wrong with her, maybe her attitude was not clear enough at the beginning, and she didn't need Cui Qian to persuade her, but she agreed in a daze.
Afterwards, she asked Chen Xi to explain the situation: "Can I bring someone there on the wedding day?"
Chen Xi: "You mean Yao Ling?"
Zhao Lu: "No, it's another one, my girlfriend."
Zhao Lu spent a long time thinking about the three words "girlfriend" before typing them out.
Chen Xi sent a frightened expression, and attached the text: "When did you talk about your girlfriend?"
Now that the lie had already begun, Zhao Lu simply went all out and typed out each word: "It's been a while."
Chen Xi sent a series of ellipses, but finally agreed.
On the day of the wedding, Zhao Lu saw Cui Qian again.
Different from the image of heavy makeup in the bar that day, Cui Xi carefully dressed up, wearing a long royal blue dress, with flowing curly hair scattered behind her head, exuding a clear and charming smell.She came to Zhao Lu generously and asked, "Is it okay to dress like this?"
Zhao Lu nodded, fixed his gaze on her curly hair, and asked hesitantly, "When did you get your curly hair permed?"
Cui Qian played with her hair with her fingers, and said with a smile: "I permed myself before going out today, doesn't it look good?"
"..." Zhao Lu was in a complicated mood, but he didn't say anything.
As a bridesmaid, Zhao Lu has to go over to make up in advance.
In the dressing room, Chen Xi saw Cui Qian, and his burning eyes lingered on her for a long time before he greeted her unhurriedly: "Hello."
Cui Qian knew her very well. Standing behind her and watching the makeup artist apply her makeup, she smiled sweetly: "Hello. The bride is so beautiful."
"Thank you." After Chen Xi finished speaking, she intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Zhao Lu who was sitting next to her waiting for makeup.
Zhao Lu caught her gaze and turned away guiltily.
The mobile phone in the bag rang. Zhao Lu took it out and found that it was Yao Ling calling. She pressed the answer button and said, "You wake up so early? We are putting on makeup...then come here."
Half an hour later, Yao Ling arrived. She greeted Zhao Lu and Chen Xi one by one, and found that besides the makeup artist, there was a strange woman standing in the room, so she couldn't help but take a few more glances.
"Miss, who are you?"
With a smile on her face, Cui Qian motioned her to approach, and whispered to her, "I'm Zhao Lu's girlfriend."
Yao Ling seemed to have heard a creepy ghost story, his pupils opened wide, he forgot the occasion, and exclaimed: "What did you say?!"
"Hush—" Trish blinked at her, and pointed to the two make-up artists who were busy.
Yao Ling subconsciously covered her mouth with her hands, her wide eyes wandering back and forth between her and Zhao Lu.
The makeup artist was applying eyeshadow to Zhao Luhua, but she couldn't see the small movements of the two behind her, so she closed her eyes and asked, "Yao Ling, are you okay?"
Yao Ling let go of his hand slowly, the astonishment in his eyes hadn't completely subsided, and was replaced by some inexplicable emotions.She swallowed and said, "No... I didn't eat breakfast, I'm a little hungry..."
After putting on their makeup, Zhao Lu and Chen Xi got into the same wedding car in formal gowns.
Zhao Lu's car was also decorated as a wedding car, driven by Cui Qian, sitting beside Yao Ling who was not in good condition.
When they met for the first time, Cui Qian didn't understand Yao Ling's character, she just thought she was not used to it, so she started the car silently, and slowly followed behind the bride's car.
After a long time, Yao Ling looked up at the people around him secretly, and asked weakly, "Are you really Sister Lulu's girlfriend?"
Trish held the steering wheel and answered casually: "Yeah, don't I look like it?"
Yao Ling paused, then asked again: "I don't know if I misunderstood. Are you and her purely friends, or a couple?"
"Of course they're a couple." Cui Qian glanced at her, she deliberately lowered her voice even though there were only the two of them in the car, "The two of us are in a secret relationship, and we haven't come out to our family yet, so don't get too excited. Make a statement."
Yao Ling still found it hard to accept, she heard herself say dryly: "Why haven't I heard her mention you?"
Cui Qian smiled faintly and said, "I haven't heard her mention you either."
"..." Yao Ling had nothing to say.
The weather is fine today, the sun is blowing and the wind is blowing, the roadside flowers are in full bloom, and the little bees are working hard to collect honey.
As soon as the bride's wedding car appeared, the welcoming team that had been waiting for a long time at the entrance of the hotel became noisy, and a group of people swarmed in. The groom, Zheng Hao, picked up the bride.
Chen Xi said that there are two wedding banquets, the noon one is the main venue, and everyone gathers together to eat after the wedding ceremony.The other guests are sent away, and the people from the bride and groom's family stay. They can also chat, play cards, or even go to KTV to sing. If you are tired of playing and have enough, you can have dinner together in the evening.
Maybe it was because of the vulgar wedding scene of his cousin Chen Xiaomei's bridal chamber last time. Chen Xi didn't intend to let everyone go to the bridal chamber.
The wedding lasted until the afternoon, and after seeing off most of the guests, Zhao Lu finally saw Yang Yi.
In fact, they have met a few times before, and they both have serious business, they just met each other in a hurry.
rather than like now.
Zhao Lu slipped out to go to the bathroom, and it was no surprise that he ran into Yang Yi here.
Why is it no surprise?Because everyone was sitting around in the lounge eating melons and fruits and chatting, she saw Yang Yi get up and leave, so she quietly followed.
Followed shamelessly and accompanied him all the way, Zhao Lu pretended to be very calm and entered the toilet cubicle.
The sound of "squeaking" water pierced her eardrums, Zhao Lu sat on the toilet restlessly, and she began to regret again, counting the numbers in her heart, thinking that she would wait for Yang Yi to leave before she left.
The sound of water stopped abruptly, the sound of high heels tapping the floor rhythmically, and suddenly there was a "click", it seemed that Yang Yi opened the door and went out.
Zhao Lu's heart was settled, she stood up, opened the door of the compartment and walked out, before taking two steps, her footsteps stopped.
Yang Yi stood quietly behind the door, meeting the eyes of the woman who broke in suddenly.
Yang Yi wanted to leave at first, but this woman was so strange that she seemed to be deliberately blocking her way, with a specious smile on her face, she opened her mouth.
Cui Qian originally wanted to ask her "Have you seen Zhao Lu", but when she heard the movement in front of her, she glanced over, her eyes lit up, and said, "Why didn't you tell me when you came out?"
Zhao Lu was still hesitating whether to go back into the cubicle just now, but when she heard Cui Qian deliberately pinching her throat, she got goosebumps.Unavoidable, she cleared her throat and said, "I just go to the toilet."
Yang Yi turned around, her calm eyes rested on her face.
It was such a strange look, Zhao Lu was stimulated, he straightened up and walked over, looking at her calmly.
She wanted to see how long this woman was going to pretend.
Cui Qian didn't speak, as if she was watching a good show, she eagerly watched their every move.
In the empty bathroom, three women stood silently, the scene was as weird as it could be.
Realizing that Cui Qian blocked the door on purpose to prevent her from leaving, Yang Yi sighed inaudibly, and said to Zhao Lu: "Thank you for your hard work today."
Zhao Lu didn't say anything, but frowned.
Cui Qian pretended to be surprised and said, "Ah, so you know each other! When did you know each other?"
Zhao Lu: "..."
Yang Yi glanced at her lightly, not knowing what he was thinking about, but it seemed that he didn't intend to talk nonsense with Cui Qian.
Cui Qian didn't care about that, she deeply remembered her mission today, and said in a cheerful voice: "I remember, you seem to be the groom's sister?"
Yang Yi nodded with an unpredictable expression.
Cui Qian frowned and said, "My name is Cui Qian, and I'm Zhao Lu's girlfriend."
As soon as she finished speaking, she strode forward, hugged Zhao Lu's arm tightly with both hands, smiled like a flower, and looked at Yang Yi provocatively.
"Hello, my name is Yang Yi." Yang Yi said calmly.
Turn around and leave.
The two people left behind looked at each other.
After a long time, Cui Qian let go of Zhao Lu's arm, looked at the door panel that bounced back automatically, and said, "Why didn't she respond at all? Could it be that I haven't acted clearly enough? Am I not acting well?"
Zhao Lu had mixed feelings in her heart, she twitched the corners of her mouth and said, "It's not your problem, she's always been like this."
Trish stomped her feet: "Oh, so angry!"
"I'm not mad at you, what are you mad at?"
Cui Qian was taken aback, staring at her face: "Are you not angry at all?"
Zhao Lu originally wanted to laugh, but finally found that this expression was a bit difficult for her now, so she had to give up.She was really not angry at all, and she didn't have that inexplicable hatred anymore, but her heart was blocked.
Mistake, she was really too stupid, she tried her best, but people didn't bother to talk to her.
Forget it, why bother with yourself?
Zhao Lu and Cui Qian returned to the lively lounge, where there were laughter and laughter, and the parents, relatives and friends on both sides were chatting happily.
As soon as Zhao Lu entered, he saw Yang Yi's figure, she was busy pouring tea for everyone, her quiet side face looked so weak.Who would have thought that such a small body could always hurt people invisible?
In a daze, Zhao Lu heard Cui Qian ask: "What about the little sister?"
Zhao Lu retracted his thoughts, knowing that she was talking about Yao Ling, and looked for it in the crowd.I searched around and couldn't find it, so I couldn't help but wonder.
Cui Qian said to herself, "Isn't it also in the toilet?"
Zhao Lu didn't even think about it: "Impossible. With her character, if she was in the toilet and heard us talking just now, she would say hello if she didn't see anyone."
Tracy was surprised, and said, "I thought she was shy."
"Her? Pull it down, she is born familiar and can make more trouble than you."
Cui Qian didn't notice that she had hurt herself indirectly, she said thoughtfully, "It's strange."
"What's so strange?"
"The little sister ate at my table just now. I thought she was too introverted so she didn't like to talk. It seems that she must have something on her mind."
Zhao Lu's heart skipped a beat: "Impossible, isn't it? Didn't you still laugh when we met in the morning?"
Trish shrugged, saying she didn't understand the situation.
Zhao Lu was a little worried, so he took out his mobile phone and called Yao Ling.
"Beep beep" rang for a long time before the other side picked it up: "Hello?"
Zhao Lu asked straight to the point: "Where are you?"
Yao Ling: "It's too stuffy inside, I'll come out to get some air, what's wrong?"
Zhao Lu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's nothing. Come back quickly, I thought you were lost."
Yao Ling giggled, and said heartlessly, "How big is this hotel, how could I lose it."
Zhao Lu thought about it too. Hearing that her tone was still normal, she put away her old mother's worries and said, "Then come back quickly."
"understood."
After hanging up the phone, the smile on Yao Ling's face disappeared instantly.
The hotel is indeed not big, no matter how she walks, she can't get lost. She just locked herself in the changing room secretly while everyone was not paying attention.
The beer in her hand drank more than she did. She burped, picked up the bridesmaid dress that Zhao Lu had replaced earlier, and sniffed it to her nose.
Maybe she thought this look was too insignificant, so she paused, closed her gestures a little bit, hugged the soft dress in her arms, and two full tears fell silently.
the other side.
Zhao Lu hesitated whether to approach or not.
Trish elbowed her in the waist.
Zhao Lu was sensitive, and instinctively jumped aside, looking at her strangely: "Why?"
Cui Qian nodded her chin and said, "Go over and drink tea. You have spent so much money to invite me here. I can't let you waste money for nothing, right?"
"..." Zhao Lu was speechless.
After a stalemate for a while, Chen Xi found two people standing at the door, and beckoned them to come over.
Zhao Lu sighed and motioned Cui Qian to follow.
Cui Qian did what she said, she dutifully acted as a girlfriend, grabbed a handful of nuts for Zhao Lu, and even fed her watermelon herself.
Although she knew that it was impossible for others to notice them, Zhao Lu was still not used to being too intimate with others under the watchful eyes of everyone. She straightened her body and protested with her mouth: "No need."
Cui Qian didn't care about this, she put the sliced watermelon to her mouth without saying a word: "Ah——"
Ah, your size!
Zhao Lu had no choice but to open his mouth, put the piece of watermelon in his mouth, chewed it, but before he swallowed it, he met Chen Xi's eyes suddenly.
Chen Xi changed into a festive Chinese-style wedding dress, showing the charm of a woman. She looked at Zhao Lu strangely, as if she had something to say to her.
"Do you want grapes?"
When this unsalty voice came from the side, Zhao Lu stiffened his back, turned around slowly, and saw Yang Yi was holding a plate of purple grapes in his hand, asking politely like a half-master. Come in Trish sitting next to her.
Cui Qian said with a full smile, "Thank you." She picked out a bunch from the inside, pinched it with two fingers, and brought it to Zhao Lu, "Do you want to eat grapes?"
Zhao Lu opened his mouth shyly: "No..."
"I know you're lazy, so I'll peel it for you." Trish interrupted her mercilessly, pinched one of the biggest grapes, and began to peel the grape in a serious manner.
Zhao Lu and Cui Qian haven't known each other for a long time, and the communication between them is basically spitting black mud. Now she realizes that she doesn't know her at all, and the person in front of her is like a showman!
In silence, Trish had already peeled a grape and brought it to her mouth: "Ah——"
This time Zhao Lu didn't cooperate, and the past flooded her mind. She was afraid that she would lose control, so she lowered her eyes hastily.
Zhao Lu remembered that he should have told Cui Qian that Yang Yi helped her peel the grapes when she was injured, so it was definitely intentional.What is the purpose of her deliberately acting in front of Yang Yi?Stimulate Yang Yi?
No matter what the purpose is, Zhao Lu himself was stimulated first anyway.
Although some feelings are gone, she still can't accept some things if someone else does it.
Zhao Lu's heart was fluctuating, and he heard Cui Qian's coquettish: "Do you want to eat?"
Zhao Lu collected himself, looked up at her, and forced a smile back at her: "You eat, I'm a bit full."
Without waiting for Cui Qian to act as a demon, she grabbed her wrist and brought the peeled grape back to Cui Xi's mouth.
Trish reluctantly ate it.
You can't reveal your stuff, you can't reveal your stuff.
Zhao Lu kept giving himself psychological hints, quick witted, pulled out a tissue to help Cui Qian wipe her hands, and complained in a low voice: "Eat something else, your fingers will change color after peeling this."
Cui Qian accepts it when she sees it: "Okay, okay, I will listen to you."
Chen Ximan's suspicious eyes never moved away from her. Zhao Lu couldn't bear to look at her, so he simply lowered his head and ate in silence.
"They're out." Until Tracy whispered such a sentence in her ear.
Zhao Lu was confused, and suddenly raised his head, followed the direction Cui Qian pointed, and saw Chen Xi and Yang Yi walking towards the door one after the other, not knowing what they were going to do.
Chen Xi called Yang Yi out on the grounds that the invisible bra was not attached properly, and the two went to the changing room.
This is a space with partitions on three sides and an open side. The doors of the other dressing rooms are all open, only the one that Chen Xi and the others used before is closed because there are dresses they have changed inside.
Chen Xi gently pushed open the door of the dressing room, turned around with a slightly serious expression.
Yang Yi didn't pay much attention, she stared at her dress and said, "Is it loose or has it fallen off?"
"Nothing, I'm fine, I just came out to ask you a few questions."
Only then did Yang Yi realize that something was wrong with Chen Xi: "What's wrong, sister-in-law?"
There are no outsiders here, and Chen Xi didn't bother to beat around the bush, so he went straight to the point: "You really don't have feelings for Zhao Lu anymore?"
Yang Yi never expected that she would ask this, his eyes darkened, and he said ambiguously: "These are not important."
"why?"
Yang Yi said calmly, "Doesn't she have a girlfriend?"
Chen Xi didn't take it seriously: "Her girlfriend is obviously fake, can't you see that?"
Yang Yi was surprised: "How do you know it's fake?"
Chen Xi thought for a while, and said: "I knew Zhao Lu before you. I know her character very well. She has always been single-minded in everything she does. When you left her and went to Singapore, you know how much it hurt her. Is it? The more she cares, the more she wants to escape, she is afraid of seeing you, so she temporarily hired a fake girlfriend to embolden herself, she is actually testing your attitude towards her. "
"how do you know?"
"Guess."
"Guess what?"
Chen Xi took a breath and said, "Has she ever told you that I have hurt her too?"
Yang Yi twitched her eyebrows and shook her head.
Chen Xi sighed heavily, opened the chair and sat down, recalled a little bit, and told her about the time when he rejected Zhao Lu.
Yang Yi didn't express any opinion after listening, her face was expressionless, only her twinkling eyes revealed her slight emotions.
Chen Xi smiled bitterly and said, "I actually regret it. I didn't think about the consequences. I didn't know how much my words hurt her until I went back to China and met her."
"For a while, my relationship with her was very stiff, and you may have felt it too. Because of what happened back then, she has been avoiding me. She is like this, protecting herself, and afraid of being hurt again. But at that time, I saw that she was right. Your thoughts, but I never thought that you still hurt her later. "
Yang Yi clenched her hands hanging on both sides more and more tightly, and her figure shook a little.
Chen Xi noticed her strangeness, touched her hand, and said, "If you still care about her..."
"No." Yang Yi shouted shortly, biting his back molars, and paused every word, "I can't do it with her."
"Why? Just because of Qian Ziyu? But she is dead, isn't she? Yang Yi, is the dead more important than the living?"
Not knowing whether it was because of excitement or fear, Yang Yi's body trembled more and more. She took a deep breath and choked up and said, "It's because I hurt her before, so I can't hurt her again."
Chen Xi frowned, and before he could refute, Yang Yi said: "She won't be happy with me, she deserves better."
"Yang Yi, why are you so stubborn, don't you..."
"Sister-in-law, don't talk about it." Yang Yi turned her back, facing the door panel, but it seemed to be facing someone, "Whether Cui Qian is her girlfriend or not, I hope she can be happy."
Before Chen Xi could respond, Yang Yi opened the door and walked out.
"Hey—" Chen Xi's persuasion was ineffective, and he felt tired and guilty.She tugged at the clothes on her body, and then walked out, closing the door behind her.
The changing room returned to calm. After a while, Yao Ling, who was huddled in the corner covered by her dress, broke free. She seemed to be drunk, staring blankly at the door panel, unable to return to her senses for a long time.
