World Five. Childhood sweetheart as ex-husband(34)

The office was well lit.

Under normal circumstances.

As soon as Xue Xue entered Xi Lang's office, she shuddered.

The man pulled up the curtains, and there was only a small table lamp flickering in the whole room. It was clearly a good day without clouds, but when she arrived at Xi Lang's office, it was like the gray sky before the storm.

The atmosphere was very heavy.

The sound of high heels hitting the marble floor was particularly crisp.

A little farther inside, Xue Xue smelled smoke.

The beautiful woman frowned.

She has always had an open attitude towards smoking. For the sake of health, it was naturally best not to smoke, but she won't make a fuss when she smells the smoke so people have to put it out.

It's just this thick smell is like a layer of dust. Obviously, the man has been smoking for a long time and the amount should be considerably many.

As if to echo Xue Xue's passing thought, when her field of view suddenly widened, the first thing Xue Xue saw was not Xi Lang, who was as still as the statue of David, but an ashtray full of ashes on the table.

The size was not small, but it seemed to be broken.

This was also a gift from Xue Ning.

In Xue Ning's memory, Xi Lang smoked but was not addicted to smoking, but as soon as she saw this exquisite iron ware, she felt that it was very suitable for Xi Lang, so she bought it for a man.

At that time, Xi Lang seemed to have just moved into this office.

The item was placed nicely on the table from the beginning, even though the man had disliked Xue Ning's taste more than once and said strongly that he didn't need it. So Xue Xue didn't even have to think about what the discrepancy between his words and actions meant.

Unfortunately, the old Xi Lang didn't understand.

Even if Xi Lang understood now, it was too late.

"What are you here for?"

A rough voice pulled Xue Xue's mind back, and brought her attention back to the man who had hidden his tall form in the shadow.

Xi Lang.

"What am I doing here?" Xue Xue took one step forward and stepped on the snow-white woolen rug that Xi Lang once cherished.

This was a guarded area, and anyone who has been in Xi Lang's office knew it.

No matter whether you are a subordinate or a customer, whoever steps on it is unlucky.

Xi Lang has no habit of cleanliness, but he does not allow people to step on his beloved carpet even if the carpet is used to be stepped in the eyes of most people, Xi Lang was particularly persistent in this regard. So if there are foreign guests, he usually takes them in another room. As for this office, it was more accurate to say that it is his private rest space rather than an office.

The layout was also very similar to that of Xi Lang's bedroom.

Xue Xue looked around and pulled her gaze back.

Xi Lang did not react at all.

He didn't even move his pupils, just stared blankly in front of him. The beautiful peach blossom eyes that had tantalized people were now dead and dull, not even as good as dead branches.

Xue Xue was suddenly a little fortunate that Yang Keqing had come to find her.

This man's ability to withstand seems to be much worse than she thought.

"Xi Lang, before you ask me what I'm doing here, why don't you take a look first at what you're doing?"

This sentence finally changed Xi Lang's facial expression.

"Are you so useless? After you entered the police station, you're out of your mind."

"What do you know?"

Xi Lang's voice was like an old machine, not like a young man in his twenties or thirties but, more like a dying old man. She could not hear the slightest anger.

"What do I know? How can I understand if you don't tell me?" Xue Xue almost laughed. "If you don't say it, what do you think I'll know?"

"So you don't have to worry about me." Xi Lang said, slowly turning around and looking directly at Xue Xue. "I know what I'm doing. Just go and have a good relationship with that man. We have nothing to do with each other anyway."

Although Xue Xue was already mentally prepared, she was still taken aback by Xi Lang's haggard appearance.

The beard should have just been shaved. After all, he was going to be in the company, but the two dark circles under his eyes may not be able to be covered even with a strong concealer, and the bloodshots floating in the whites of his eyes looked even more terrifying.

Like a vampire who hasn't seen the light for years.

Xue Xue, who was still a little hesitant, suddenly made up her mind and threw the bag in her hand.

The unpredictable action made the unsuspecting Xi Lang got hit.

"Fuck!"

Xi Lang cursed.

But Xue Xue still had not resolved her anger.

"Xi Lang, you let me down." Her voice fell sharp to the man who stared at her angrily. "What the hell happened to you? Why did you become like this? Obviouslyyou obviously shouldn't be like this."

The last sentence came out sour, astringent and powerless, and it fell into Xi Lang's ears, instantly dousing the man's surging anger.

"What should I be like?" Xi Lang looked at Xue Xue with flickering light and shadow in his eyes. "Xue Xue, tell me, what should I be like?"

Xue Xue was speechless when asked.

Xi Lang's shoulders collapsed at once.

"Anyway, I have nothing to do with you, you"

"In my heart, you should be dazzling, like the sun. Even if you are far away, I can still feel the warm brilliance."

Xi Lang suddenly raised his eyes.

The way the beautiful bright-eyed, white teeth, smiling woman gazed at him, made Xi Lang feel like he had gone back to his student days a long, long time ago.

At that time, Xue Ning always looked at him like this, her eyes were full of him, only him.

However, it seemed that before he knew it, he had lost Xue Ning in the long river of time, never to be found again.
