Jiaqi never thought that she would see Meng Heping again in this life, but it was not a real person, but the cover of a magazine. She held the magazine and looked at it horizontally and vertically. The bridge of the nose, the skin...why is it so far from the Meng Heping in her impression? While having lunch in the company restaurant, she finally couldn't help asking Zhou Jing'an: "You said, seeing your first love boyfriend who has been separated for many years on the cover of a magazine, does it look like a TV series at eight o'clock?" Zhou Jing'an's mouth was full of fish-flavored shredded pork, and she dug a large spoonful of white rice into her mouth with a spoon, eating it deliciously and sweetly.She nodded again and again: "Like, and it's like a youth idol drama - who is your first love? It can't be a good boy, right? Pu Bajia or Song Xiaobo, don't tell me it's Wu Jianfei."

Jiaqi "cut" and said how could a good man be on the cover so quickly. Only then did Zhou Jing'an's eyes widen, as if she was choking, she dropped all the chopsticks and spoons in her hand, and yelled, "Who is your first love, You Jiaqi? It's even on the cover of a magazine. Hurry up, Huang Xiaoming is still Chen Kun?" The last sentence was a little louder, causing the colleagues at the next table to look here, and Jiaqi couldn't help answering angrily: "Tony Leung." Zhou Jing'an let out a sigh, with a face full of disappointment, and said, "You're so old."

When going to work in the afternoon, Jiaqi was obviously absent-minded. First, he mistook the location of Munich for Prague, and then mistaken the plane model. Finally, he sighed, put down what he was doing, and went to make a cup of tea. The tea is Ceylon black tea, and I feel petty bourgeoisie when I say it.In fact, when she was in school, she only used stainless steel thermos cups to make big-leaf green tea, and drank Nescafe coffee when she was extravagant.The first time I went to a cafe was after I broke up with Meng Heping. I walked from Xihuan Road to Jiefang Road alone for an unknown amount of time. Finally, I saw the lights of the cafe next to the street and went in.

I ordered a glass of Blue Mountain that day and swallowed it down. There were very few customers in the store. Across the dim candlelight on the table, there was a couple whispering in a far corner.I forgot whether I cried or not, I just remembered that the price was 60 yuan.Later, I felt distressed all the time, it was so expensive, I might as well buy two bottles of Beijing Erguotou, drink it up with my neck up, and pretend to be crazy with the wine. The black tea was emitting a curl of heat. She took the magazine out of the drawer again, looked around, and wondered if she had identified the wrong person, or if she had the same name and surname, but it was clearly him. He was mature and steady, and his appearance did not change. , even the small mole at the corner of the eye is still there.The cover has a black background, which makes people's eyebrows distinct, really bright and starry.I didn't think Meng Heping was good-looking before. Although he was tall, he was thin. His parents were away for a long time, and his aunt couldn't control him. He was always hungry and full.Jiaqi made egg fried rice for him for the first time, and he ate three bowls in one sitting. She felt sorry for him, as if he had never eaten enough.

Suddenly a hand stretched out and snatched away the magazine with lightning speed. Before she could react, she had already heard Zhou Jingan inhaling again and again, pointing at her, her mouth was so wide that she almost swallowed an egg. .In the end, considering that there were ten or so colleagues in the cubicle, he lowered his voice abruptly, and asked like a thief, "This is your first love? My God! It's even more amazing than Tony Leung!" Jiaqi smirked and said, "What are you guessing, of course not." Zhou Jing'an nodded, and said, "That's right, if you are really his first girlfriend, why are you still sitting here? You would have gone to him to rekindle the old relationship." She counted the zeros at the end of the net worth on the magazine with her finger, counting one Bian sighed: "You are so young, you have so much money, you are still not a human being."

Jiaqi still smirked. In the past, her mantra was "When we have money", but Meng Heping got tired of listening to it, so he sang against her. She said, "When we have money, we will buy a big house." Meng Heping followed Said: "When we have money, we will build a big house." She said: "When we have money, we will buy German cabinets." Meng Heping then said: "When we have money, we will build cabinets in the kitchen." Chinese stove..." She puffed up her cheeks and glared at him, and he glared at her, and finally she laughed out loud, and he embraced her, saying softly, "When we have money, I'll build a big one House, build a big Chinese stove, let you cook for me every day."

She kicked him with her foot: "You pig, you have a good idea." Zhou Jingan's enthusiasm for gossip was completely mobilized, and she said with great interest, "Hey, this Meng Heping has transformed from an Internet upstart to a real estate upstart. The real estate in Haidian, their company, is so expensive that it is very popular." Jiaqi suddenly felt a headache and her eyes were swollen. She picked up the black tea and took a sip. It was too hot and burned the tip of her tongue. She remembered the first time she met Meng Heping, the school's School of Foreign Languages ​​and the School of Electronics held a ballroom dance, and she was dragged away by her roommate, and she couldn't dance, so she had to sit in the corner and drink soda.Meng Heping was sitting next to her. She drank soda and he smoked. His smoking posture was very good-looking, unlike some boys who pretended to smoke.Then someone in the middle of the dance floor yelled at him: "Peace peace!"

He didn't answer, and lowered his head to light another cigarette. He used matches. Jiaqi hadn't seen anyone use matches in many years. The slender and white stems were lightly drawn across the outside of the box, sparking small faint blue flames.He held the flame with his hands, a hazy red light appeared between his fingers, as if he was holding the thin light of the sunrise.Jiaqi felt curious, so he couldn't help but take a second look. He raised his head and smiled at her, showing a mouthful of neat and white teeth. Seeing her staring at his hand, he took out the cigarette case and gave it to her: "Do you smoke?"

She shook her head like a rattle, and finally, gathering courage, asked, "Can you show me your matches?" He froze for a moment, and handed her the whole box of matches. Many years later, Jiaqi inexplicably got into the habit of collecting matches. Whether she was staying in a hotel or going to a banquet, she always took the matches with her in the end.After so many years, I have collected nearly a thousand boxes of matches of all kinds, packed them in cardboard boxes, and neatly stacked them under the bed.No one knew that she slept on top of a pile of gunpowder every day. But for so many years, she has never found a box of matches, which is exactly the same as that used by Meng Heping back then, and she knows she can't find it.Because that kind of match is specially made, it is impossible to have it outside.

Before leaving get off work, I learned that I would have dinner with an important client. The competition in the advertising industry is becoming more and more fierce. Their company is considered a leader in the industry, and they have to think hard about their performance.The boss even euphemistically called it "strengthening communication". Zhou Jing'an was most disgusted by this, and said, "I really think we are escorts!" When eating Thai food, Jiaqi can’t bear the taste of fish sauce the most. He bites the bullet and swallows Tom Yum Kung soup like a traditional Chinese medicine, and then praises the customer’s request “creatively”. Seeing that the boss was chatting happily with the client, he used the excuse to go to the bathroom to touch up his makeup, and took the opportunity to sneak out to breathe.

The decoration of the restaurant is very Southeast Asian. The corridor is long and empty. One side faces the water, and the other side is the door of each box.There was a woman crying at the corner of the aisle, Jiaqi had always been curious, Zhou Jingan once laughed that she would die of curiosity sooner or later.In the end, her curiosity drove her to see a scene of bitterness. The heroine cried like a pear blossom and rained, and gritted her silver teeth: "Ruan Zhengdong, you must die!" She covered her face and staggered away. It stands to reason that the male protagonist in this Qiong Yao scene should immediately catch up, but Ruan Zhengdong just smiled, with deep and narrow red phoenix eyes, and there seemed to be a kind of evil in his smile, he just lowered his head slightly, struck a match and lit a cigarette.The slender and white stalks lightly streaked across the outside of the box, sparking small blue flames.He held the flame with his hands, a hazy red light appeared between his fingers, as if he was holding the thin light of the sunrise. The matchbox was dark blue, only the narrow side was coated with phosphor, and the dark blue almost black phosphor suddenly flashed under the light, as if sprinkled with silver powder.Jiaqi couldn't help staring at the matchbox, until Ruan Zhengdong handed it to her, and then she looked at the man again in a daze. "Smoking?" he asked. The voice was nice, there were paper lanterns hanging at the bottom of the corridor, the light was warm orange, his face was in the shadow, as if ambiguous, Jiaqi didn't expect him to ask this question, and he was stunned. Later, Ruan Zhengdong said, "You are the best at being in a daze." Jiaqi sounded familiar, but later remembered that it was Fan Liuyuan.Bai Liusu is good at bowing her head and drooping her pink neck. She is charming and silent when listening to it, but she is just dumbfounded, which is a big spoiler when listening to it. In the past, Meng Heping also said that she was dumb and called her a silly girl. Jiaqi never knew what Ruan Zhengdong did, and she was even surprised how Ruan Zhengdong found out his name and occupation, and sent a florist to send a bouquet of white roses to the company after a few days. Zhou Jing'an looked at the white roses brought in by air from the Netherlands, screamed, and couldn't help but flew over the signatures interspersed with flowers on the plaid: "Ruan Zhengdong? Who is this person?" Jiaqi thought of that box of matches all of a sudden, and was only surprised that this man had great powers, and it looked like flowers were dispensable.Zhou Jing'an has already croaked: "Miss, how much does this kind of rose cost, and you don't ask about it. Now which man is willing to buy this kind of flower and give it away?" Jiaqi said: "Whoever has more money will do it." Zhou Jing'an could only recite Amitabha Buddha: "You finally understand, such a rich master, take good care of it." Jia Qi said: "Hold your head, this man is not a good man." Zhou Jing'an "cut", saying that no matter how indiscriminate the person is, he is better than "Brother Jin". Jiaqi gets a headache when she hears Guo Jin's name, and Guo Jin is the well-known "Brother Jin" in the company.When Jiaqi first joined the company, he didn't know what was good or bad, and in the spirit of solidarity and friendship as a colleague, he offered to help him in a certain case, who knew that the help would cause endless troubles.Thinking of this, Jiaqi regretted it. She was just a nodding acquaintance, but Guo Jin pretended to be crazy with wine at the annual dinner, and said to her in tears: "Jiaqi, I know you are good to me. But I still love my ex-wife deeply...I can't be sorry for my son. Jiaqi, I'm sorry for you..." Jiaqi was frightened and stupid at the time, and kept saying that you misunderstood you misunderstood, but this is Guo Jin, who is still deeply in love with his ex-wife. Frightened by his "spinach in autumn", he went out of his mind, and after a few days, he asked her out again for one reason or another.Jiaqi flatly refused, but he was heartbroken: "Jiaqi, I know I shouldn't point out that you have a crush on me in front of so many people, but now I accept your feelings." I couldn't bear it anymore, and at one point even thought about resigning to avoid it, but in the end I still couldn't bear the salary, and endured it day by day. Maybe it was Zhou Jingan's crow's mouth that said it right. When she got off work at night, she unexpectedly met Guo Jin in the elevator, and the hairs on Jiaqi's back stood on end in fright.Sure enough, Guo Jin asked her out for dinner again, and she said, "I have a date with a friend." Guo Jin asked: "What kind of friends did you date?" Jiaqi replied with a cold face: "Boyfriend." Guo Jin laughed instead: "Don't lie, where did you get your boyfriend from?" He approached with a shiny face, "I'll treat you to dinner, huh?" The long ending at the end really disgusted Jiaqi, I only hated the slow elevator going down, and I couldn't jump out of this cage immediately.Fortunately, the phone rang, and she answered it immediately as if she had caught a life-saving straw. "Jiaqi? I'm Ruan Zhengdong." With a deep, magnetic male voice, Guo Jin's eyes swished on her, and she was almost grateful for the timely call, and didn't bother to ask how the other party knew about her. Phone number: "Oh, hello." "I'm nearby, do you have time tonight?" She immediately agreed: "Okay, I just got off work, are you coming to pick me up?" He laughed heartily: "Give me ten minutes." Guo Jin was really patient, she kept walking back and forth in front of the office building, until she saw Ruan Zhengdong's car, she got into Ruan Zhengdong's car and drove off, the moment Guo Jin's face really made Jiaqi feel very happy.She was not a vain person, but she was grateful for someone like Prince Charming who came to rescue her in dire straits.So after getting in the car, he made a special lie to Ruan Zhengdong, and honestly accompanied him to have a meal.Fortunately, this meal was not just the two of them alone, but a large table of friends, both men and women.When you are full of wine and food, you join the table to play mahjong. I don't know how lively it is.They played extremely cards, and whoever won would give out money all over the place. All female companions, no matter who they were, got a share. At first, she was the only one who refused to take it, so someone called: "Zhengdong, you girl." Friends like never before." Ruan Zhengdong also just smiled, slowly dusted the ashtray into the ashtray, and casually stuffed the few red banknotes into her hand: "Don't be ignorant." His tone was gentle, as if teaching a child. The next day, the whole company knew that she had a rich boyfriend, and what Guo Jin said was quite sour: "I don't know why I like her?" In fact, Jiaqi was also surprised. For this reason, she took out the makeup mirror and looked around. She is a typical middle-aged figure, with fair skin and big eyes, but not very beautiful, and her eyes are even a little dull.This Ruan Zhengdong almost fell from the sky, what is he looking for in him? Zhou Jingan kept asking her very gossip: "What's it like to be a rich man's girlfriend?" She replied, "I'm not his girlfriend." Zhou Jingan yelled strangely: "Then what are you?" After thinking about it, Jiaqi really felt a headache.In fact, she felt that Ruan Zhengdong's pursuit was just a farce, so she watched it tepidly, not to mention it could be used as a shield to avoid watching Guo Jin's "Spinach in Autumn".Ruan Zhengdong went out with him about ten times, and she went out with him once or twice. Every time, she went to a big hotel for dinner, called friends and friends in groups, and the large group of people ate, drank and had fun. Although the fun was crazy, it was a proper occasion. He didn't necessarily have any real intentions for her.As time passed, we gradually became like friends.At first both parties were still pretending, he pretended to be a gentleman, she pretended to be a lady and virtuous, but in fact they rarely saw each other, she only saw him once in ten and a half months, and the meeting was only for eating, drinking and having fun.Later, she gradually seemed to be numb, and she simply relaxed in front of him, revealing her so-called true colors.He has never been short of women, and she has no interest in him at all. One night when Ruan Zhengdong sent her back home, he was also drunk, but he drove the car extremely fast, speeding all the way on the elevated road, she was worried, and said: "Let's take a taxi, it's not good for drunk driving to be stopped by the traffic police. "Ruan Zhengdong glanced at her, he had the so-called Danfeng eyes, the corners of his eyes almost slanted into his temples, and because he drank alcohol, his sideways glances became more beautiful and bright: "Why, you don't want to die with me?" After pausing for a while, he said again: "I want to die with you, so that you don't always look absent-minded every time I'm with you." She was used to hearing his nonsense and didn't bother to pay attention.But he went on talking to himself: "Tell me, what's wrong with me? I'm a good-looking talent, a returnee from a famous school, with demeanor, education, temperament, taste, and image. I can be regarded as a young talent no matter what. Why do you dislike me so much? Me? Hey, Yujiaqi, I'm talking to you, don't just ignore me. " She had no choice but to look back at him and said, "There are too many people waiting to see you, and it's not my turn." He laughed out loud and said, "You think they really want to see me, that's the money for seeing me." She also sneered and said, "Ruan Zhengdong, you have been fooled again. In fact, I value your money more than they do, but I am a person with high morals. I have read seven or eight hundred romance novels. This kind of person is most willing to be disliked by others, and is most interested in kicking the iron plate, so I want to play hard to get you, and I don’t want to see you, so that I can go fishing for gold turtles for a long time. In fact, I have been waiting for you to propose to me in my dreams.” He smiled: "Yo, so you thought that way, I didn't expect it, hey, since this is the case, why don't we go get the certificate tomorrow. We two bad guys are a natural couple. " She said: "Two bad guys—don't dare to be them. There are no rich bad guys in this world, only poor ones without money. I dare not make a perfect match with you. Besides, I'm still young, so I married you so early. Wouldn't it be a big loss for me to meet someone richer than you again and again." He laughed loudly, his eyebrows and eyes were all stretched out, the faint smell of the leather seats in the car, the quiet fragrance from the air-conditioning vent... the manly smell of alcohol and smoke on his body... She felt stuffy, and pressed the window, The wind rushed in immediately, and with a whistling sound, her hair was completely messed up. He has always spoken in this tone, and she couldn't figure out what was true and what was false, so she had no choice but to believe nothing.
