MTL - He Has To Be Human, Right? !-Chapter 19 The ex passed by and was brutally killed by a car.
In the newly opened old hot pot restaurant in Chongqing, mist floats on the bottom of the spicy and fragrant butter pot.
People passing by Ye Ying's table can't help but look back - after all, there are two eye-catching men sitting side by side.
The two people have very different styles, but the expressions on their faces are exactly the same indifferent.
Tao Zi's eyes fell on the two people on the opposite side, and she didn't dare to breathe.
She leaned close to Ye Ying's ear and whispered: "What's the situation?"
Ye Ying pressed her temple.
She also wants to know what's going on!
It was originally her and Tao Zi's dinner, plus Huang Xize was still one of his own.
What is Zhou Zhirui doing here again? !
Yes, it was indeed Huang Xize who said "It's because we can have dinner with friends", but he, Zhou Zhirui, is the boss of a company, why did he follow along?
Ye Ying frowned slightly, feeling unhappy.
Anyone who can still see the boss's face after work will not be happy!
Fortunately, the food was served soon, Ye Ying and Tao Zi were indulging in the food, talking and laughing.
Taozi picked up a piece of meat and decided to choose a safe topic: "How does the cat look?"
When talking about cats, Ye Ying thought of little Garfield who was ordered to leave by Zhou Zhirui. But she is not going to talk about this now, she just smiled: "I haven't seen the one that fits my eyes yet."
Unexpectedly, Huang Xize on the other side raised his head: "Do you want to raise a cat?"
Ye Ying only realized later, and remembered Huang Xize's identity.
Weasels and cats...can coexist peacefully?
She is now living in his house, and this matter cannot ignore his feelings. So Ye Ying hurriedly replied: "It's just a consideration stage."
Before Huang Xize could speak, Zhou Zhirui suddenly said, "I remember you said ten years ago that when you live in the house, you will raise a cat."
This sentence is too informative.
Zhou Zhirui's intimacy inside and out, and the past that only two of the four people in the room knew, was undoubtedly a kind of provocation and demonstration.
Even Tao Zi, who had no idea what was going on, realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere. She sat up straight, frowned slightly, and looked at the faces of the other three.
Huang Xize's expression was very calm.
Ye Ying thought that he would not be indifferent to this kind of provocation, just like at the entrance of the pet shop, he would respond more or less.
But Huang Xize didn't say anything, he didn't even look at Ye Ying, as if he just mentioned the topic of pets and didn't care about Zhou Zhirui's words.
He lowered his eyes, as if all his thoughts were on the hot pot with red soup.
The steaming white steam separated him and Ye Ying, making it difficult to see his face clearly.
But Ye Ying inexplicably felt that he was not in a good mood. She squeezed her chopsticks and pursed her lips, paused for a few seconds, put down the chopsticks, and looked at Zhou Zhirui seriously: "I don't live alone."
Tao Zi was stunned, and Zhou Zhirui was also stunned. He subconsciously asked back: "What?"
"I don't live alone, I live with him."
Ye Ying glanced at Huang Xize who was still in motion, and then returned to Zhou Zhirui's face.
Her tone was also very light, but firm: "I'm already married to him."
"impossible."
Zhou Zhirui frowned suddenly: "Yingying, you—"
"Please don't call me that again, Mr. Zhou."
Ye Ying's expression also turned cold: "As a subordinate, I respect you very much. Please respect me too."
Zhou Zhirui's expression froze.
Ye Ying sighed, and asked Tao Zi: "Have you finished eating?"
peach:…
In this situation, even if she hasn't finished eating, she can't say anything? !
She doesn't want to stay here alone with Zhou Zhirui!
"I'm going to pick up the cat."
Zhou Zhirui stood up and took a deep look at Ye Ying: "You guys eat first."
Ye Ying lowered her eyes and didn't say anything, she stretched out her chopsticks to grab the shrimp slippery.
Zhou Zhirui paused, turned and left.
Tao Zi looked at his back and looked at Ye Ying after seeing him go far away, with a look of horror: "What's going on?! Did you drive Mr. Zhou away?"
Ye Ying sighed: "I'll tell you later."
"Okay." Tao Zi agreed very readily. She knew that Ye Ying said this because she was not going to hide it from her, but she still asked: "If you don't want to say it, let's not say it."
Ye Ying smiled slightly: "It's okay."
But Taozi quickly thought of another thing, and glanced at Huang Xize opposite him: "This chicken is..."
She wanted to say the owner of the fried chicken shop, but also wanted to say who this was, so she arranged another identity for Huang Xize with a single mouthful.
Huang Xize: "..."
After this oolong, the dull atmosphere on the table was swept away, and Ye Ying and Tao Zi started chatting and laughing again.
Ye Ying introduced generously this time: "This is Huang Xize, my landlord."
After a pause, she added, "It's also my marriage partner."
peach:"…"
Taozi has completely lost her expression, the amount of information is too much, she has been overloaded.
Just now when Ye Ying dropped the bombshell, Tao Zi thought she was speaking for Zhou Zhirui.
But now...
Ye Ying can think about it.
Just now in front of Zhou Zhirui, I have already told about my marriage, so there is no need to cover it up.
And Taozi is her best friend, so she should know no matter what.
"That's the way it is. So we live together now."
Ye Ying omitted the unacceptable supernatural part, and only said that the two met each other on a blind date, and they met each other and got married in a flash.
As for haunted houses, ghosts, etc., just tell her slowly in the future—obviously, Tao Zi's ability to bear today has reached its limit.
Tao Zi struggled to digest everything he heard today, and even the steps to leave were slightly faltering.
She lived nearby, and there were still people coming and going on a five-minute walk, so they declined the kindness of the two of them to take her back.
Ye Ying turned around and said to Huang Xize, "Let's go."
Two people walk in the spring night.
Bauhinia paves a thin layer under the feet, and there is a strange color under the golden street lamp.
The evening wind blew Ye Ying's hair and passed by her ears. There are colorful neon lights on both sides of the street, and it is very lively and lively.
As she was walking, she looked up at Huang Xize: "In the store, when he was finding fault, I thought you would hate him."
After all, she has seen this guy's poisonous tongue before, and she will never suffer from it. But he didn't say anything, which surprised her.
One must know that Hu Fengyao, the fox fairy, would be beaten if he said a word to Huang Xize. And Zhou Zhirui, as a human being, actually made Huang Liuye suffer this kind of grievance.
In a way, it's pretty awesome.
"Don't you want others to know about your marriage?"
Huang Xize tilted his head slightly, looked at Ye Ying, and said something that she didn't expect.
So... it was for her?
In order to respect her wishes, he chose to endure the provocation?
Ye Ying's heart skipped a beat for some reason.
She thought it was unnecessary, but after a few seconds of silence, she still said, "Zhou Zhirui..."
"He's my ex-boyfriend."
After the words were out of my mouth, the next thing went smoothly: "He is two years older than me. After graduation, his family asked him to go abroad, and then..."
"We broke up."
Ye Ying's voice was very flat, and when talking about this past event that had not been seen for many years, she didn't have too much emotion: "A friend introduced me to this company two years ago, and I thought the treatment was good, so I came here."
Unexpectedly, after working for half a year, she met the boss who had been sitting in another branch.
It was Zhou Zhirui.
Ye Ying was really surprised at first, and thought about whether to resign to avoid this embarrassing situation.
But when she found out, she had already worked here for half a year and had a certain foundation. The general environment is sluggish, and this kind of treatment may not be available in another place.
So Ye Ying, who was saving money to buy a house, decided to stay.
Anyway, Zhou Zhirui is so busy that he doesn't touch the ground, he is often not in the company. In the past six months, the branch seemed to be on the right track, and he had more time to stay here.
But at this time, Ye Ying was already an old professional, and she treated Zhou Zhirui respectfully and calmly, making it hard for anyone to find fault.
The two of them didn't have much chance to be alone, but they lived in peace.
Of course, Zhou Zhirui sometimes stared at her, but Ye Ying pretended not to see it.
Facing him, Ye Ying has always been impeccable and flawless.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Zhirui would do such an outrageous thing today.
Is it because she fell asleep yesterday and accidentally called his name?
Ye Ying didn't know, and didn't want to know, there was no word "Huaihuicao" in her dictionary.
not to mention...
She lowered her eyes, she and Zhou Zhirui were far from a "peaceful breakup".
The evening wind in spring was still a bit cool, making Ye Ying shiver slightly.
Suddenly she felt warmth on her shoulders.
The warmth seemed to have its own consciousness, spreading along her thin back, and soon filled all limbs and bones.
Ye Ying looked up in surprise, and found that Huang Xize's hand was wrapped around her shoulders. The whole arm was burning with blue flames, illuminating his well-defined face.
She was shocked, pulled his arm and pressed down: "Crazy? So many people are watching!"
Huang Xize chuckled, "They can't see it."
His eyes stared into hers: "Only you can see."
Ye Ying stared blankly into those eyes that were as black as the night sky.
Strange, he obviously didn't say anything, but he seemed to say something extraordinary.
Ye Ying hurriedly lowered her head, her heart was beating like a drum, and trot across the street in a disguised manner: "It's so cold, the car door is open."
Huang Xize looked at her running back, the corners of his lips slightly raised.
In fact, the car was at least forty meters away from them. Ye Ying ran while running, touching her hot cheek.
what happened?
She clearly warned herself not to go on like this, why is she still gradually sinking?
He's a weasel!
Reproductive isolation, dear!
The child born does not know whether it will grow a tail or not—
As soon as this idea came out, Ye Ying wanted to give herself a mouth.
Why do you even worry about the children? !
She gritted her teeth resentfully—it was all the fault of Zhou Zhirui, who was hurt at first love, and she only fell in love once in her life.
Facing Huang Xize now, how could he have no resistance? !
Could it be that the iron tree has not bloomed for sixty years, and once it blooms, the mountains will collapse?
In other words, people have to rely on peers to set off. Compared with the unbearable last relationship, Huang Xize is simply...
A bunch of random thoughts were running through Ye Ying's mind, and in the next second, something happened suddenly!
The sharp tire skid sounded, resounding through the entire street. Ye Ying suddenly raised her head - at some point, a bus that got out of control turned the corner and rushed straight towards her!
The car came before him in the blink of an eye, and Ye Ying's mind went blank for a moment.
She saw an incomprehensible picture—on the crazy bus, the driver's seat was actually empty!
Everything happened so quickly that people had no time to react. After the earth-shattering loud noise, everything feels delayed and dislocated.
The sound of glass breaking, screaming, the grinding of metal, mixed with gasoline, and the smell of burning rubber.
Ye Ying fell to the ground, with a cold stone wall behind her, and a huge black shadow shrouded her eyes.
The sights, sounds, and smells are all gone, only a slight sound, piercing the entire silence, knocking in the ear canal.
Tick, tick, tick...
Ye Ying's gaze was fixed, she slowly looked down, and finally landed on her own hand.
The dazzling red between her fingers burned her eyes in an instant.
Ye Ying seemed to have been hit with a stick, her body shook violently, and then trembled.
She shook her hands, caressed the body that was protecting her in her arms, and whispered his name overwhelmed.
She opened her mouth, and only let out a trembling voice: "Huang...Xize?"
No one answered.
She could still see the ends of his light-colored hair in her field of vision, but because the distance was too close, it was blurred, giving her the illusion of being dizzy.
The surrounding sounds seemed to be coming from the bottom of the water, indistinct. She heard someone yelling "crowded by a car", "call an ambulance", "roll over", etc., but her chaotic consciousness can't understand it at all.
Amid the commotion, Ye Ying exhausted all her strength to hug Huang Xize's limp body tightly. Her fingertips were white, sinking into the folds of his clothes.
