My name is Li Mei, I am 28 years old and I am a primary school Chinese teacher. My boyfriend's name is Zhang Li, 30 years old, who works as a sales manager in a foreign company. We've been in a relationship for two years and the relationship is stable.
I sat alone by the window of the coffee shop, ordered a latte, and flipped through the news on my phone to pass the time. It took about half an hour before Zhang Li arrived in a hurry.
"Meimei, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. Zhang Li said as he pulled out the chair across from me and sat down.
"It didn't take long for me to watch the news for a while. I laughed.
"The company has a temporary project to rush, so I can only leave late. He explained.
"It's okay, I understand. Work matters. ”
"I'm sorry, I thought it would have been a good time to eat together, but now you're drinking coffee. He was a little annoyed.
"We can eat together another day, no hurry. I comforted him.
Zhang Zhang nodded, called the waiter over, and asked for a cup of Americano.
We chatted for a while, and Zhang Zhang said that he has been very busy at work recently, and often works overtime until late. I also told him that the school was going to organize a concert for the children recently, and that I needed to guide them in rehearsals.
"By the way, my mom asked me to take you to the house for dinner recently. Zhang Zhang said suddenly.
"Well, I haven't visited my aunt in a while. I said.
"Well, my mom said I hadn't seen you for a long time, so I made sure to take you to a sitting. ”
"Let's do it on weekends, I have time for weekends. ”
I'll ask my mom to pick you up when the time comes. Zhang Zhang said.
We chatted casually about our daily life, and we both felt that we had been busy with work and life recently. Before I knew it, we had been talking for more than an hour.
"By the way, Meimei, let's go out for a walk, it's not a way to be stuffy in the coffee shop. Zhang Zhang proposed.
"Okay, the weather is not bad, it's good to go out for a walk. "I agreed to his offer.
Zhang Zhang settled the bill, and we walked out of the coffee shop side by side. As soon as I went out, a gust of evening breeze blew, and I couldn't help but shiver.
"Do you want to buy a coat?" Zhang Li asked with concern.
"No, it'll be warm after a while. I said.
Zhang Li took me in his arms and rubbed his hand back and forth against my arm, trying to warm me up. We took a slow walk down the street.
"By the way, I'm going to Beijing for a week of business next month. Zhang Zhang said suddenly.
"Oh?
"Yes, it's an important project, and the leader asked me to coordinate it. ”
"Then you have to pay attention to safety and go on a business trip
"Then you have to pay attention to safety and take care of yourself when you are on a business trip. I said with concern.
"Don't worry, I will. By the way, are you free for the winter vacation? Why don't we go on a trip, I haven't been out for a long time. Zhang Zhang said.
"We can take a rough look at the itinerary before deciding, and I also have to ask the company for leave. This time, just the two of us, let's relax. There was anticipation in his eyes.
"Well, let's get back to it. I smiled and nodded.
We walked aimlessly, and tension suddenly stopped, looking a little hesitant.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"What's the matter?"
"Well, you're right. We are not in a hurry and can give ourselves some more time. Zhang Zhang nodded and said.
"Yes, you can't take too many steps. Let's do the things in front of us first, and then think about the future. I laughed.
Zhang Zhang also smiled: "Okay, then let's do a good job first, and talk about the future later." ”
We continued to wander through the streets. It was getting dark, and the neon lights on the side of the street lit up. At this time, my mobile phone rang suddenly, and it was a call from my colleague Xiaojun.
"Hey, Jun, what's the matter?" I picked up the phone.
I hesitated, then said, "I'm out there right now, let's go to school right away." Don't worry, I'll get the plate and leave soon. ”
After hanging up the phone, I said to Zhang Li: "I'm sorry, my colleague forgot to take the courseware, let me go to the school to help get it, I'll be back soon." ”
"It's okay, you go, I'll wait for you around here. Zhang Zhang said.
So I hurriedly took a taxi to school. The school gate was locked, so I called my uncle security guard and he told me to enter through the east gate. I went to the office and found Jun's plate very smoothly.
With the plate, I was going to walk through the back door of the school, where there was a bicycle and I could ride back to find tension.
As soon as I got to the back door, I saw a white Ferrari parked outside the school gate. The windows were ajar, and there was a man sitting in the car, who was from my high school
As soon as I got to the back door, I saw a white Ferrari parked outside the school gate. The window glass was ajar, and there was a man sitting in the car, who was none other than my high school classmate Xiaolong.
I walked over in surprise and knocked on his car window: "Xiaolong, is that you?"
The car window rolled down, and Xiaolong was very surprised when he saw that it was me: "Meimei, it's been a long time!"
"Why are you here?" I asked.
"Oh, I just got off work and passed by your school, so I stopped to take a break. Xiaolong explained, "How have you been doing all these years?"
"I'm doing a good job as a primary school Chinese teacher here. What about you? I heard you went to the United States to study?"
"Yes, I studied in the United States, and after returning to China a few years ago, I started my own business, and now I have my own company in the city. ”
"Wow, you're a successful person now. I laughed.
"Haha, it's okay too. By the way, I saw you coming out the back door just now, what are you still doing at school?"
"My colleague asked me to pick up something, and I'm leaving. ”
"Well, do you want me to give you a ride? Xiaolong proposed.
I thought about it and felt that I hadn't seen Xiaolong for a long time, so I agreed.
"Then I'll send a message to my boyfriend first, and he'll be waiting for me nearby. We'll meet somewhere else. ”
"Okay, no problem. ”
I got into Xiaolong's car, and we drove the car and chatted while heading to the mall.
"Meimei, you're still as beautiful as you were in high school. Xiaolong said with a smile.
"Come on, so many years have passed, how can I still be the way I was back then. I laughed and teased him.
"I'm sincere, you haven't changed at all, you're still so cheerful and cute. ”
"Then you've succeeded a lot, who of us would have thought that. ”
"Haha, but you were my favorite back then. Xiaolong suddenly said seriously.
I was stunned for a moment, a little overwhelmed. "Xiaolong, after all, we have been many years ago. ”
"I know, but I still remember the feeling back then. You say, what would be the present if we hadn't separated?"
I shook my head slightly: "Let it pass." Now we all have our own lives. ”
The little dragon was silent. I could see that he seemed to be still nostalgic for his past feelings.
"I'm sorry, Xiaolong, I didn't mean to hurt you. It's just that so many years have passed, and we are now at a different stage of life. I whispered.
"You're right, we're not who we used to be. Xiaolong nodded, "But I'm glad to see you again." ”
"Me too, high school life has become very happy because of you. ”
We chatted about high school life for a while, and soon we arrived at the mall
We chatted about high school life for a while, and soon we arrived at the mall. Xiaolong parked the car at the door, and I saw that Zhang Zhang was already waiting for me not far away.
"Tension!" I walked over and grabbed his hand, "Sorry to keep you waiting." ”
"It's okay, your high school classmate?" Zhang Li looked at the little dragon.
"Yes, this is Xiaolong, we were good friends in high school. Xiaolong, this is my boyfriend tension. I said.
"Hello. Xiaolong shook hands with Zhang Li.
"Hello, thank you for sending Meimei over. Zhang Li said politely.
"You're welcome, we just happened to talk about the past of high school life. Then I won't bother you, Meimei, I have time to contact. ”
"Okay, goodbye!" I waved goodbye to the dragon.
Xiaolong drove away, and Zhang Li and I walked into the mall side by side.
"An old classmate?" Zhang Zhang asked.
"Yes, a good friend from high school, I had a good relationship back then. I explained.
"I see. Zhang Zhang nodded.
"Then let's go shopping, we're all in the mall. I said, holding tension's hand.
"Okay. Zhang Li smiled and agreed.
We chatted about each other's work and life while visiting the mall. Zhang Zhang said that he has recently been considering whether to change to a new car, and his classic car has been driven for many years. I propose to wait until we return from the winter break to decide.
"By the way, what did you just talk to about that little dragon?" Zhang Zhang asked suddenly.
"Oh, nothing, just talked about high school life and his going to study in the United States. I replied.
"Do you have a good relationship in high school?"
"It's okay, mainly because we are in the same school band, so we often practice Xi rehearse together. ”
"Just a normal friend?" Zhang Zhang asked.
I looked at him with some confusion: "Of course it's an ordinary friend, what is your problem?"
"It's nothing, just a casual question. Zhang Zhang smiled.
I think the tension is a bit abnormal today, somehow a little sensitive and nervous. We continued to wander around the mall, but Zhang Zhang seemed absent-minded.
"Are you having something on your mind today? I don't feel like I'm concentrating. I asked with concern.
"Maybe it's a matter of work. Zhang Zhang said.
I was surprised that Zhang Li would ask me so bluntly. We stopped, I looked him in the eye and said, "Xiaolong was just my friend in high school, and now it's the same as before, just a normal friend." Don't think about it. ”
"Really just friends? I look at the way he just looked at you, it doesn't look like he's just a friend. ”
"Zhang Li, what are you talking about? Xiaolong and I have been out of touch for many years, and we met suddenly
"Zhang Li, what are you talking about? Xiaolong and I have been out of touch for many years, and it is just a greeting when we meet suddenly. I explained.
I see that his eyes are full of nostalgia and reluctance, and he must be more than just an ordinary friend. Zhang Zhang insisted.
"You're thinking too much. "I'm a little annoyed.
"I didn't think much of it, I understood the way men look at women. I guess you must have had a leg before!" The tension raises the volume.
"You give me enough to stop!" I also raised my voice and said.
Our argument drew attention from other customers. I pulled the tension to a relatively secluded corner.
"Zhang Li, listen to my explanation, Xiaolong and I are really pure friends, don't be suspicious. I said calmly.
"I don't believe it. Tell me what happened before. Zhang Li's tone was a little tough.
"Even if something happened before, it's in the past, not the present. You're not qualified to interrogate me!" I was excited again.
"I'm qualified! You're my girlfriend now!" Zhang Zhang also said excitedly.
"Even if it's a girlfriend, it doesn't mean you can question me at will!"
"I have reason to question it! Your reaction just now speaks for itself!"
"Enough tension! I don't want to listen to you any more!" I shook off his hand, "I'll go home first, you calm down yourself!"
With that, I turned around and left, leaving tension and standing still. I left the mall in a huff and went to the side of the road to get a taxi. At that moment, a white Ferrari pulled up in front of me, the window rolled down, and it was a dragon.
"Meimei, why are you alone, didn't you have a boyfriend just now?" Xiaolong asked with concern.
"We had a fight. I said sullenly.
"Do you want me to take you home?"
"No, I'll take a taxi back by myself. ”
"Then I'll follow you and make sure you get home safely. Xiaolong said.
I nodded and got into the taxi. Xiaolong drove after the taxi.
When I got home, I paid the fare and Xiaolong parked the car in front of my house. "Meimei, call me if you need anything. He said.
"Well, thank you, little dragon. ”
"Don't take your boyfriend too seriously. This kind of quarrel is normal, just give each other a little time. "Little Dragon encouraged me.
"Thanks, I'll think about it. You should go back and rest early. ”
"Okay, remember to contact me. ”
The little dragon drove away. I came home alone, tossing and turning in bed, my mind full of tonight's quarrel with tension. I'm worried that this argument won't hurt our relationship. In the second half of the night, I finally fell asleep exhausted.
After lunch, I went to the café where I agreed to meet Zhang Li. Zhang Zhang is already waiting for me inside.
"Tension. I pulled out my chair and sat down.
"Mei Mei. He looked tired.
"Let's order first. "I called the waiter and we all ordered coffee.
"I'd like to talk to you about last night. After a while, I spoke.
"Well, your tone and attitude last night did make it hard for me to accept. I said.
"I'm sorry, I was too impulsive. Zhang Li lowered his head.
"But you also have to understand that the past is to let it pass. I continued, "I'm with you now, and it doesn't matter with anyone's past. ”
"I know. Maybe it's because I have low self-esteem and insecurity. Zhang Zhang sighed, "But I really like you, Meimei." I care about you so much that I can't control myself when I have doubts about this. ”
I was silent for a moment: "There is a real need for mutual understanding and trust in a relationship. This is a lesson for me, and I should be more considerate of your feelings. ”
"Meimei, I promise that I won't be unreasonable in the future. I will try to feel more secure and trust in our feelings. Zhang Zhang said seriously.
"I will also try to understand you and not let the past become an obstacle for us. I nodded.
"Thank you for your willingness to give me a chance. Zhang Li took my hand.
"I also want to thank you for your willingness to reflect on yourself. It's a growing process for a relationship. "I squeezed his hand too.
Our coffee came up and the atmosphere eased a bit.
"By the way, my mom is still waiting for us to go to the house for dinner on the weekend. Zhang Zhang said.
"Well, I haven't forgotten, let's go to your house when the time comes. ”
"Great. My mom will definitely cook a lot of good food. ”
"I'm already looking forward to it. I laughed.
We chatted a little more about our daily life, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.
"I'm sorry, but it was Xiaolong who sent you home last night. Zhang Zhang said with some embarrassment.
"Well, I happened to meet it, so I can calm down. I said, "But I'm just normal friends with him, so you don't have to get me wrong." ”
"I know, I won't doubt your relationship with other boys in the future. Zhang Zhang nodded.
"When the time comes, I will explain the situation to Xiaolong to avoid misunderstanding. I said.
We decided to start over and give each other more understanding and trust. Maybe after this quarrel, our relationship will become stronger.
