Chapter 98 gao xuan
The next day, after breakfast at home, Jiang Zitong and Jiang Zicong were sent to the The jiang family. When they learned that aunt and uncle were going to the bookstore, the two children naturally went to play with them.
The weather in the capital was still very cold, and there was a heavy snow last night. As soon as they got dressed and went out, they met the sun sisters who came to visit.
Sun Bingqing, wearing a cheerful red down jacket, greeted her with a smile. "Elder sister Chuqi, chu heng, Yujie and I are here to pay respects to uncle and aunt for the new year. Are you going out?"
Jiang Chuqi glanced at her brother without any trace. Seeing that he seemed not to see the two people in front of him, he was holding a nephew in one hand and preparing to leave. She sighed helplessly in her heart and smiled and replied, "Bingqing, Yujie, my parents and xiao man are at home. Chu heng and I are going out to buy something with zi tongzicong. We will come back later."
"Oh, okay. Elder sister Chuqi, chu heng, let's get together again when we have time." The smile on Sun Bingqing's face did not change at all.
Jiang Chuqi smiled and nodded, "Okay."
Jiang Chuheng carried the two little nephews into the car and fastened their seatbelts. He then sat in the driver's seat, buckled his seatbelts and set off on fire.
"Chu heng, are you telling me the truth? Do you have something on your mind?" Jiang Chuqi had been looking for an opportunity to ask him about it for the past ten days.
Jiang Chuheng pretended to be dumb, "What do you think?"
"Hmph, I've been there before. Can't you tell what you're trying to do? Have you taken a fancy to her little girl?" Jiang Chuqi's face was full of banter.
Jiang Chuheng denied, "Sis, don't talk nonsense."
Jiang Chuqi looked calmly at the wide road ahead and smiled, "You know what I'm saying. Sister is not mom's old-fashioned way of thinking. You can just go after whoever you like. I won't stop you. I just want to remind you that she's too young. Take it easy."
"Sis..." The name slipped through his teeth.
Jiang Zitong, who was already somewhat sensible, opened his mouth with a lost front tooth and pulled the back of the seat in front of him. He asked curiously, "Little uncle, which little girl do you like? Are we going to have an aunt?"
"No, your aunt is talking nonsense. Don't listen to her." Hearing the "Little aunt" in his mouth, a smiling face appeared in Jiang Chuheng's mind, but he did not admit it.
"Oh." Without much thought, Jiang Zitong sat back in his seat and made a request, "Auntie, I want chicken wings and chips."
Jiang Chuqi agreed immediately. "Okay, auntie has no time to cook for you these two days. Let's go to the Kfc today."
"Oh, yeah!" The brothers in the back row cheered together.
The Kfc in the capital city was the first in the country, and business was booming. Although the price was not cheap, there was a long queue in the store every day. Jiang Chuheng took them to the entrance of the Kfc and went to find a parking space. Jiang Chuqi led his two nephews to line up first.
It's just...
Jiang Chuqi did not expect them to meet again here. Seeing a man who was more mature and stable than four years ago, a certain chord in his heart trembled and greeted him as calmly and naturally as possible, "Gao Xuan, it's been a long time."
"Chu Qi, long time no see." Gao Xuan, who had an ordinary face but a little fortitude on the other side, obviously did not expect to see her again. There was something unnatural in his voice. He was wearing a dark blue cashmere coat today, looking very energetic, but there was still some coke on the hem.
Jiang Zicong, who was thinking about fried chicken drumsticks, was too excited and ran too fast. He knocked over the coke in Gao Xuan's hand as soon as he entered the door. I just didn't expect him to be a friend of my aunt's. He was a good boy, so he had to apologize when he did something wrong, "Uncle, I'm sorry."
"It's okay." Gao Xuan looked down at him and saw that he was four or five years old. He had some guesses and looked up at Jiang Chuqi, who was more mature and beautiful than before. "Is this your brother's child?"
Jiang Chuqi smiled, nodded and introduced him, "This is my brother's son, Jiang Zitong. The one who bumped into you is my second brother's son, Jiang Zicong."
When they were dating back then, Gao Xuan had known her family members, but later...
"Did you come alone?" Jiang Chuqi glanced behind him and saw no one else following him.
Gao Xuan shook his head, "No, I came with my girlfriend. She went to the bathroom." As he said this, his heart felt a little congested, and many memories came back to his mind.
Jiang Chuqi's smile widened a little. "I heard from him a year ago, when is there a wedding drink? Don't forget to buy me a drink then."
Mu qi was a mutual friend of the two of them. When they were together, mu qi was the one who set them up, but later, he let down the good intentions of his good friend. Gao Xuan smiled and answered, "Okay. But we haven't decided yet. Once we do, we'll invite you."
Jiang chuqi nodded.
"Auntie, zi cong and I are going to line up. You can talk to uncle." Jiang Zitong couldn't wait to eat chicken wings and chips. There were more and more people. When aunt and uncle finished talking, they didn't know how long it would take before they could eat them.
Jiang Chuqi replied, "Okay, be careful." Although she agreed to let them line up, her eyes fell on them from time to time.
"Chu Qi, I came back a year ago to find out that you went to study in m country four years ago. When did you come back?"
What happened that year really made him suffer for a long time, and he hated her, but as time passed, he gradually let go. A year ago, when he came back to china to meet with muqi, he talked about her and learned from him that she had gone to study abroad not long after that incident. At that moment, he was sure that he had misunderstood her. The two of them had never met in the same country in the past three years, and she knew she was studying in m country, but she had never come to him to explain. He thought that she must be extremely disappointed with him.
Jiang Chuqi replied, "I just came back before the new year. I got home on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month."
Gao Xuan pursed her lips. "Are you coming back?"
"No more. After staying there for four years, I was a little homesick, and my parents were getting old, so I decided to stay with them in the capital." On the night of her return, after a deep conversation at home, the atmosphere at home was much better. Indeed, as her brother said, it was warm and happy. She liked the feeling and wanted to stay with her parents who were getting older.
"Haven't you found the right person yet?" Hearing what she meant, Gao Xuan felt a little stifled and happy.
Jiang Chuqi shook his head and smiled, "No. You also came back from studying there, so you know how heavy your studies are, and you don't have the time to find a partner."
Gao Xuan's hand tightened under his sleeve, and his eyelashes trembled. He asked a question he had been struggling with for three years. "That Sun Jinglai, aren't you childhood sweethearts?" After a pause, he added, "Your two families are well-matched in every aspect." This sentence was once spoken by her mother.
The smile on Jiang Chuqi's face faded a little, polite and distant, and he asked, "Before chasing me, he talked about five or six people. Is the term childhood sweethearts used to describe us like this?"
Her question struck him like a lightning bolt, making him dizzy. Gao Xuan pursed his lips tightly and said after a long time, "Chu Qi, I'm sorry."
Jiang Chuqi smiled and looked into his eyes with a relaxed expression. "We both had a reason for that. My mother went too far. I should have hurt you back then. I haven't said" I'm sorry "To you yet. It's been so many years, and a lot of things have become dull. Just forget about it."
Gao Xuan pursed his lips and tried to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
Her appearance was a little less green than before, a little more charming, her temperament changed, became more mature and steady, her personality changed, no longer as cheerful and lively as before, and now very calm and calm, she was perfect, but inexplicably made him feel sour.
"Gao Xuan!" At this moment, a mature female voice came over, interrupting their thoughts.
Jiang Chuqi turned slightly to look at the owner of the voice and guessed that this should be Gao Xuan's new girlfriend.
He looked about the same age as Jiang Chuqi. He was about 25 or 26 years old, with shoulder-length short hair, fiery red lips, and a slightly plump figure. He walked over in high heels and took a look at Jiang Chuqi, who was much prettier than her. The corners of his mouth stiffened slightly and he asked, "Gao Xuan, who is this?"
"Jiang Chuqi, a friend from college." Gao Xuan tidied up his complicated emotions, briefly introduced him, and then introduced him to Jiang Chuqi, "Chu Qi, this is my girlfriend Wu Qian."
"Hello, miss jiang." Wu Qian offered his hand.
Jiang Chuqi reached out to shake her hand and said politely, "Hello, miss wu."
Just as wu qian was about to continue talking, Jiang Chuheng, who had finally found a parking space, came in. He saw Gao Xuan, whom he hadn't seen for years, and then Wu Qian, who was next to him, immediately guessed the identity of the other party. He was worried about his sister, so he strode over and shouted from a distance, "Sister."
Jiang Chuqi turned around and when he came up to him, he said, "Chu heng, I'm going to catch up with my old friend. You take zitong and zicong to buy a Kfc."
Jiang chuheng saw that her expression was natural and normal, so he answered, nodded lightly with Gao Xuan and walked towards the two little nephews.
"Four years no see. Your brother has grown into a man. Where does he go to school now?" Gao Xuan and jiang chuheng had met a few times before, and because of Jiang Chuqi's relationship at that time, the two of them had chatted, but now this situation is not easy to chat anymore.
"He's a junior in the national defense department and will graduate next year."
Gao Xuan smiled slightly and said, "Your brothers and sisters are really outstanding. Your brother and brother both take the army route. What unit does your second brother work in now?"
"My second brother has been working at the academy of sciences since he returned from studying abroad. He works in the same unit as you." Jiang Chuqi smiled faintly.
Gao Xuan raised an eyebrow and thought of names. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, "Is your second brother Jiang Chuke?"
"Yes."
Wu Qian was a little irritated. She had a feeling that she was redundant. Based on a woman's sixth sense, this sudden appearance of jiang chuqi would bring her a crisis. From their conversation, she could guess that the other party must have a good family background. She must have graduated from a famous university. Her appearance, figure and temperament were better than her own. She found that she felt a little inferior in front of the other party.
"You just returned from studying abroad. What are your plans?"
Gao Xuan's words made Wu Qian's heart sink a little, and the smile on her face stiffened. She thought that the other party was a graduate of a famous university in china, but she did not expect that it was a returned master's degree, which widened the gap.
"I'm studying communication technology abroad. I'm going to start a business with my old friends. I'm going to work the day after tomorrow."
Gao Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly in disbelief, "Chu Qi, with your position in the family and your education and ability, it's easy to enter an institution like the academy of sciences. Why did you choose to start a business? Will your parents and brothers agree?"
"I didn't agree before, but I convinced her, and now the whole family supports me. The work in the system is good, but it's not suitable for everyone. I want to live the life I like and want. My friend, this private enterprise, is very suitable for my future development." That was Jiang Chuqi's nature. Once she made up her mind, she would listen to the opinions of others, but not all of them. So did her parents and Gao Xuan.
Gao Xuan looked at the confidence flying between her brows, and the ripples in her heart began to ripple again. Then he forced her to calm down, and said calmly, "The communication industry is a rising industry in the future. With your ability and ability, you will definitely be able to work out an amazing career. Come on!"
"Yes, thank you."
Jiang Chuqi's eyes had already caught Wu Qian's various unnatural, it seems that Gao Xuan's object quite cares about him, she should find a reason to go first, so as not to disturb their interest.
"Auntie, uncle bought us a big family bucket and coke." Jiang Zicong ran over to report with his short legs.
When the boy arrived at the right time, Jiang Chuqi fondled his head and said to Gao Xuan, "Gao Xuan, we still have to go to wangfujing bookstore later. There are guests at home to entertain at noon, so I won't reminisce with you. Two days ago, I spoke to muqi on the phone. He returned to the capital with his wife and children on the twelfth of the first month. Then we'll make an appointment to get together."
"Okay." Gao Xuan took out a small card from his wallet and handed it to her. "Chu Qi, this is my home phone. Call me when you're sure."
Jiang chuqi nodded, took the card and put it in his pocket. Then he smiled at Wu Qian, "Miss wu, next time our old friends meet, you can come and play with us."
"Yes, okay." Wu Qian's smile was genuine this time.
Gao Xuan was sad and depressed as he watched the military car disappear.
Wu Qian, who was already sensitive, suddenly remembered something. His pupils shrank and he asked nervously, "Gao Xuan, this Jiang Chuqi is the one you've been with before, isn't he?" She also overheard from others that Gao Xuan had a partner before studying abroad. She had asked Gao Xuan before, and he did not hide it, but did not say anything about the other party.
Gao Xuan was not good at lying and answered honestly, "Yes, we were together for two years."
Hearing the exact answer, Wu Qian's throat tightened and his legs were as heavy as lead, unable to move.
"What's wrong?" Gao Xuan took two steps and saw that she did not follow him. When he turned around, he saw that she did not look well.
"Nothing." Wu qian shook her head and raised her heels. After walking five or six steps with him, she turned to look at him and asked seriously, "Gao Xuan, are you still thinking about her?"
Gao Xuan stopped in her tracks, didn't answer her immediately, and muttered, "Wu Qian..."
His hesitation caused Wu Qian's heart to sink to the bottom of the valley, and his voice suddenly became very sharp and harsh, "Okay, you don't have to say anymore. Gao Xuan, I, Wu Qian, am not such a shameless person, and I have my own pride. I don't care about a man who has other women in his heart. Let's call it a day. I'll explain to my family." After that, he left in his high heels.
"Wu Qian!"
Gao Xuan was so shocked by her sudden change that he did not react for a long time. When he came back to his senses, he saw that she had walked far away, frowning and striding after her.
