"You sit down first, let's sit down and talk." Fang Zhiqiang sat down on the sofa, and then said to Li Xiaoxiao.

"What's wrong with you?" Li Xiaoxiao said after sitting down, and then said: "The conditions there are better than here. There is an elevator room, a community and properties, and the house is bigger than here. , the decoration is better than here, with complete electrical appliances and furniture. Moreover, you don’t have to pay rent, why do you insist on renting it out?”

“Because it’s close to the company, just drive there. It'll be there in ten minutes, which is more convenient than staying at your place. Besides, it's not convenient to stay at your house all the time. After all, it's your house." Fang Zhiqiang said, and then took out a few more things from his body. , placed it in front of Li Xiaoxiao, and said: "Xiaoxiao, this is the key to your house. I have packed up the things in the house before leaving. I have moved all the things that belong to me. This is the bank card , there are more than 3.7 million in the card. This is the money I owe you, and I will pay it all back to you today. I'm very sorry. I have always owed you money, and I have already owed this money for almost a month. Years ago."

Li Xiaoxiao stared blankly at the bank card and keys placed in front of her by Fang Zhiqiang. She didn't say anything for a long time, but her whole body became heavier.

　“Qiangzi, where did you get this money? I told you, I’m not in a hurry to pay it back.”

　“Didn’t I start a company? The company is still It's quite profitable."

"You're talking nonsense. I know the general situation of the company. Although it can make money, it is impossible to have so much money all at once." Li Xiaoxiao said.

"Yes, you heard it from your sister, right? The company currently has four stores, and the fifth and sixth stores will be opened soon. The company's monthly business The total is five to six million. The company has been open for half a year, so it is normal to earn several million. Otherwise, where can I get so much money? I can't just rob a bank, can I? Just keep it. "Fang Zhiqiang said with a smile. He was talking nonsense about data. He just wanted to make Li Xiaoxiao less mentally burdened.

"But...but my sister told me that your company needs development right now and is short of money."

"She hasn't been to me for several months. Company, how could she know about my situation?" Fang Zhiqiang smiled.

"But..."

"Take it." Fang Zhiqiang said with a smile.

"Qiangzi, what's wrong with you today? Why do I always think you are weird." Li Xiaoxiao felt that Fang Zhiqiang was very strange today.

"Xiaoxiao, there is something else I want to tell you." Fang Zhiqiang looked at Li Xiaoxiao again and said.

"I...why do I feel...it feels a little strange..." Li Xiaoxiao suddenly looked at Fang Zhiqiang nervously, she had a bad feeling.

Fang Zhiqiang was silent again. After a long, long time, he said: "Xiaoxiao, actually, I have always known that you like me. I am really touched and grateful to you and your love for me. However, I still hope... I hope that in the future we will... Let’s just be friends, ordinary friends.”

Fang Zhiqiang mustered up a lot of courage to say these words. After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and smoked a cigarette by himself. He didn't dare to look at Li Xiaoxiao's eyes. He didn't dare to face Li Xiaoxiao.

Li Xiaoxiao looked at Fang Zhiqiang blankly. For Li Xiaoxiao, Fang Zhiqiang’s words were like a bolt from the blue.

"Qiangzi, you...what do you mean...?" Li Xiaoxiao asked blankly, stammering a bit.

"What I mean is that from now on we will just be a pair of ordinary friends, just like Liu Yan and I, just friendship and not involving any other emotions." Fang Zhiqiang said sincerely He didn't want to hurt Li Xiaoxiao, but now he had to say it. Even if he couldn't bear it, he had to say it.

"You mean...that we break up, right?" Tears were already rolling in Li Xiaoxiao's eyes.

　"Xiaoxiao, we have never been together. This...this is not a breakup. I just...just said that we can just be friends from now on, and we won't get involved anymore. Those things between men and women are over, okay?" Looking at Li Xiaoxiao's appearance, Fang Zhiqiang suddenly lost his composure, and his tone of voice was not as firm as before.

"But Qiangzi, you know, I love you, I just want to be with you, I don't want to be friends with you. What's wrong with you? What happened to you today? You Suddenly he moved out of that house, gave me the money, and told me this, what happened to you? Did someone threaten you? Is it Zheng Mingjie? Or my parents?" Li Xiaoxiao was thinking wildly. , tears were already rolling in my eyes and were about to fall.

"No, none of that. No one has come to see me, and no one has threatened me." Fang Zhiqiang shook his head.

"Then what's wrong with you? Why are you living well, but suddenly like this? Haven't we always been living well?" Li Xiaoxiao asked, a little excited.

"Do you think you are doing well? Xiaoxiao, tell me the truth, have you really been doing well these days? Are you really happy?" Fang Zhiqiang raised his head. Come and ask.

"I...I don't know, I only know that I am happy when I am with you." Li Xiaoxiao shook his head and said.

"Tell me the truth, do you think it's possible for the two of us to be together?" Fang Zhiqiang asked again.

　"I...I don't know. I know that my parents will definitely not agree, but I will fight for it. I think that as long as the two of us fight for it, they will finally agree. Even if they don't agree, we... … When we grow up, we will fly far away and live in a place where they can’t find us.”

“Can you do it without your parents? They are only your children. In addition, even if you can fly far away, Can I? I still have a father at home. He is alone. I am the only son. I am destined to live with him and take care of him. How can I go far away? How can we be together? I have said these words before, go far away and take care of him. It definitely does not represent happiness." Fang Zhiqiang asked rhetorically.

"Then...then I can wait, wait until you succeed, wait until you succeed."

"Success? What is our success standard? What is the so-called standard of success in the eyes of your parents? Are they the same standard? If you give me a lifetime and good luck, I may not be able to reach the level that your parents are satisfied with."

"Then I will wait for you forever." Li Xiaoxiao said firmly.

"Can your parents wait for me forever?" Fang Zhiqiang asked again.

"I..."

"Actually, these are not the most important problems." Fang Zhiqiang finally shook his head.
