only soft on you

Chapter 272 Chen Yan's Incomplete Personality
During the whole process, Zhou Tang sat in the same place without moving, and kept looking at the girls following the sound, full of noise.

It wasn't until those girls walked away completely and disappeared into the end of the light that she came back to her senses a little bit. All the good mood seemed to be greatly reduced.

She did not expect that Wang Sufang was admitted to the ICU recently, and her life was in danger. She is such a kind and gentle person, and she has already undergone surgery, but so suddenly...

She also didn't expect that in these two months, although she didn't contact Xu Qingran, she always thought that he would do well in his grandfather's company. Quick, so she always thought that he would be able to quickly adapt to his grandfather's company's operating model and his current job, but she didn't expect that at this time, Xu Qingran was bumping into walls and encountering difficulties.

His thoughts were completely tossing and boiling, and he couldn't calm down for a while.

Zhou Tang was silent for a long time, hesitated several times, then picked up the phone, clicked on Xu Qingran's WeChat profile picture, and sent a sentence: How are you lately?
After the news was sent out, Xu Qingran didn't recover immediately, and until Jiang Xiao and the others' karaoke ended and Zhou Tang got into Jiang Xiao's car, there was no movement from Xu Qingran's side.

Zhou Tang couldn't help but glanced at Xu Qingran's WeChat avatar, feeling very lost in his heart.

Although she had only seen Xu Qingran for two months, she felt inexplicably that she and Xu Qingran seemed to be getting further and further apart, and there was a sense of distance between them.

"looking at what?"

Perhaps Zhou Tang checked his phone too frequently, so Jiang Xiao couldn't help but ask Zhou Tang.

Only then did Zhou Tang put away his phone, without hiding anything, he just said, "I'm waiting for a message from someone."

Jiang Xiao's expression moved slightly, and he fixed her for a moment before saying, "Didn't you wait?"

Zhou Tang nodded, "It's been more than two hours, and there hasn't been any reply over there, so they should be busy."

Jiang Xiao sighed, hesitated for a moment, and then couldn't help but said: "If the other party really cares about you, unless there is a special emergency, otherwise, he won't not hear from you for so long. Of course, this does not rule out that his mobile phone is turned off. Or mute, it’s true that I didn’t find your message, so I didn’t reply, which is another matter. However, you should also know the character of the other party, so you know which one is most likely not to reply.”

Zhou Tang's thoughts were suddenly caught by Jiang Xiao, and his face changed a little for a while.

That's right, how could she not know the most likely reason why Xu Qingran didn't reply to the news.

Some time ago, his grandparents had accidents one after another. When she called or sent him messages, it wasn't that he didn't see them, but he was not in the mood to reply. So tonight, when her message was sent, nothing came of it. The most likely reason was... ...Xu Qingran didn't plan to go back.

Zhou Tang was silent for a while, then smiled helplessly, and said with some self-deprecation: "Maybe I really know what the biggest possibility is that he won't reply to the news, but I just, until now, maybe I haven't been interested in this relationship yet." Totally relieved."

She and Xu Qingran met Yu Weimo, but he saved her from fire and water.

He pulled her out of the mud like sunshine and a hero, but when something happened to him, she couldn't pull him completely into the light.

It was her impotence, it was her inability to help him, and it was she who watched him sink into pain and darkness and was helpless.

Jiang Xiao carefully looked at Zhou Tang's expression, and for a moment, he also understood who Zhou Tang was talking about.

Other than Xu Qingran, who else could make Zhou Tang so caring and hard-pressed.

Thinking of the past between her and Xu Qingran told by Zhou Tang, Jiang Xiao was also filled with emotion.

She slowed down her voice even more, and comforted: "Some things are beyond our control, so it may be better to accept everything at the moment. After all, love is not a necessity in life, and no matter how vigorous love is, it is only short-lived Yes, but loving yourself is long-term and worthwhile. So, relax, be good, and look forward."

"I see, Miss Jiang Xiao, thank you."

Zhou Tang was silent for a while before replying in a low voice.

Jiang Xiao glanced at her with some concern, and didn't say any more.

The driver drove all the way forward, and soon arrived outside Jiang Xiao's villa.

Zhou Tang and Jiang Xiao got out of the car and went back to their room. After washing up, they went to bed and rested.

Early the next morning, Zhou Tang woke up, turned on his phone, and saw the news push on the Weibo platform.

The push message was so straightforward and eye-catching on the screen of her mobile phone: Chen Yan, the president of Wansheng, was drinking and fighting.

Zhou Tang was startled for a moment, and her mind also fluctuated for a moment, but she didn't intend to click on it, nor did she intend to pay attention to it.

It's just that she couldn't help thinking about Wang Sufang, and she couldn't help but think of the jokes of the girls she heard by the lake in the resort last night, so she could probably guess some of the reasons for Chen Yan's fight.

It was nothing more than those girls who disturbed him when he was most depressed and irritable, and made him angry, or because he had conflicts with other people in the bar because of drunkenness, or was targeted by his enemies, thus caused all this trouble.

Zhou Tang couldn't help thinking about several possibilities, and his thoughts also fluctuated accordingly.

But just after waking up to take a shower, when she picked up her phone to check the time, she unexpectedly received a reply from Xu Qingran: "It's not so good recently. I heard you've been in Beicheng recently?"
Zhou Tang's eyes tightened for a moment, and he subconsciously replied: Well, it's Jiang Xiao's birthday, and I came back to China to attend her birthday party, so I happened to be on vacation.

I thought it would take a long time for Xu Qingran to reply after this message was sent out, but it only took about ten seconds for Xu Qingran to reply: That's fine, Tangtang, let's meet tonight.

Zhou Tang's fingertips trembled for a moment, and he quickly replied: OK.

The place Xu Qingran booked for the evening was a private room in the Yueyan Building in Beicheng.

When Zhou Tang went there in the evening, he dressed up carefully.

In fact, Xu Qingran has seen her when she was the most untidy and most embarrassed, but this time, for some reason, Zhou Tang was inexplicably nervous, so she also picked out her clothes a little bit, and even carefully painted her makeup. .

When leaving Jiang Xiao's villa, Jiang Xiao hesitated to speak to her, but in the end he only told her to slow down on the road.

Zhou Tang knew Jiang Xiao's worries.

She was afraid that if she went to Xu Qingran's appointment this time, she would return disappointed again, and she was afraid that she would really act emotionally and hurt herself again with a heartbroken heart.

It's just that she also has her own persistence in her heart. In fact, she didn't want to do anything to Xu Qingran when she went over this time. She just wanted to see him, even if she just sat and chatted with him for a while, it would be enough.

After all, Xu Qingran is such a gentle and caring person, she is the sunshine and light in her heart, she hopes that he can always turn dangers out of troubles, and the years will be peaceful.

It's just that when Zhou Tang got into the taxi to Yueyan Building, his mobile phone rang unexpectedly.

She quickly picked it up and saw that it was Jiang Feng's number.

Zhou Tang frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment before picking it up, Jiang Feng's voice was unprecedentedly suppressed, with a hint of prayer, "Tangtang, I know you have returned to Beicheng, can you come to the Luxi mansion to see it?" Chen Yan? Can you come and persuade him?"

Zhou Tang thought of the news about Chen Yan's gang fight that he saw this morning, and also thought of Wang Sufang's matter, and he also had some guesses in his heart.

But she didn't plan to pay attention to Chen Yan, and she didn't want to be by his side to comfort him and encourage him during his most difficult time like in high school, so as to give him a little bit of hope.

Because she has never thought of being with Chen Yan again now, and she dare not give him hope at this time. She knows that Chen Yan at this time is in a state of embarrassment and fragility, and cannot bear the disappointment of expectations. Huge gap.

She didn't want to hurt him at this time.

So she said firmly to Jiang Feng, "I'm sorry Jiang Feng."

Jiang Feng took a deep breath, "Just take a look? Chen Yan recently..."

Zhou Tang interrupted with a tight voice, "Jiang Feng, I know what you want to say, but I don't have the same feelings for Chen Yan now, and besides, you know Chen Yan's paranoia. Healthy, not the same as us, he tends to admit death, so if I go to comfort Chen Yan now, what do you think Chen Yan will think? Will he feel that there is hope between him and me at this juncture? And if He really regards this hope as his life-saving straw when he is desperate and helpless, and once he finds out that I still have no intention of getting along with him, and I still treat him coldly, what do you think will happen to him when there is such a huge gap?"

As he spoke, he sighed, "When the time comes, Chen Yan's hopes will be dashed, and his feelings will be frustrated again. Jiang Feng, is this what you want to see?"

Jiang Feng immediately choked off all the next words, and fell silent completely.

Of course he knew that Chen Yan's personality was not sound.

And as long as he is not so paranoid, not so stubborn, and not so accepting of death, the relationship between him and Zhou Tang will not be like this, and he himself will not be crazy for a while, acting on emotions, unable to control his emotions at all. .

Zhou Tang continued to say to him with a tight voice: "You and Yang Fan should take good care of him. In fact, Chen Yan is the greatest blessing in his life to have the two of you by his side."

Jiang Feng was full of noise.

Zhou Tang hung up the phone without waiting for Jiang Feng to reply.

She sorted out her mood in the taxi for a while, and got out of the car calmly when she arrived outside the Yueyan Building.

When he followed the waiter all the way into the private room of the Yueyan Building, Zhou Tang thought that Xu Qingran hadn't arrived yet, but Xu Qingran had already arrived.

Zhou Tang's pace stopped at the door in an instant, and his eyes subconsciously swept towards Xu Qingran, only to see that he was actually wearing a shirt and trousers today, and a pair of shiny leather shoes on his feet.

His side profile is still excellent, his skin is fair, and his whole person seems to still be gentle and elegant, with a very temperament, but there is also an inexplicable sense of dignity and distance.

Perhaps sensing the movement, Xu Qingran turned his head at the right time, and those dark eyes met Zhou Tang's just like that.

Different from the smiley eyebrows and eyes of the past, Xu Qingran's eyes at this time were tired and deep, and it seemed that only two months had passed, and his eyes no longer had the leisure and light they had before, and were instead surrounded by a This sense of vicissitudes is completely filled.

He seemed to have really experienced a lot of difficulties and tribulations in a short period of time, as if the whole world had changed, too much had changed.
