Chapter 73: You are so fond of pretending

I pinched my face hard, and the pain suddenly came. I was sure I was not dreaming. I was stunned for a long time before asking Mi Cai, "Why are you here?"

Mi Cai smiled and said, "Of course I'm here to find you."

"But...but why did you come to me? How did you find me?"

Compared to my shock, Mi Cai said to me calmly: "You play the game first, and I'll talk about it later."

"Then what are you doing?" I asked subconsciously.

"Let's see you play."

As soon as Mi Cai finished speaking, the child over there had already poured a piece of game coins into the game console.

I calmed down and fought fiercely with the child again, but I couldn't win anyway. Finally, I threw a basket of game coins to the child and pulled Micai, who was still interested, and left the game room.

...

The night was already a little deeper, and the wind whistled past us with the coldness of late autumn, while Mi Cai's clothes were a little thin. She subconsciously tucked the houndstooth wool coat that she had seen her wear many times.

I asked again, "Why do I think this is outrageous? Tell me why you came to me?"

Mi Cai looked at me, her expression was not as calm as before. She took out a letter from her pocket and handed it to me, saying, "Is this what you wrote to me, right? You have known that I am Zhuomei's general manager!"

I took the letter but didn't take it apart. I just stared at Mi Cai in a daze, but my emotions were ups and downs. I was silent for a long time. After a long time, I lit a cigarette and asked Mi Cai, "How do you know this?"

"Fangyuan, it was your friend Fangyuan who told me that you resigned from Polygon Department Store because of this and then left Suzhou."

"He shouldn't tell you this. This is my own choice, and then quietly leave the city in Suzhou that makes me tired."

Mi Cai looked at me without words. In fact, even if she didn't speak, I already knew her attitude. She was grateful to me, otherwise she would not have traveled from Suzhou to Xuzhou to see me.

I don't want this to be a burden to Mi Cai, and I don't need her to thank me, so I smiled and asked with the goal of diverting her attention: "I'm very surprised how you know that I'm in the Game City. You are so powerful, this is Xuzhou!"

Mi Cai threw away the burden, smiled slightly, and said, "Fang Yuan told me your address, and I went to your house to find you. Your father was at home, and he also made dinner for me. Finally, your mother came back. I asked her where you were. She said, "When you are in a bad mood, you will go to the Game City. You will probably be there. Then I found you in the Game City."

"You have been doing such a big trouble, why don't you call me in advance?"

"You like to pretend so much. If I call you in advance and make you ready, how can I see you pitiful?"

I was choked by Mi Cai for a moment and was speechless. After a while, I looked at the Santana of Bandad and said, "Am I pitiful? I have cars, smoke cigarettes, play games, and live freely like a god!"

Mi Cai shook her head helplessly and said to me: "Let's stop talking, I'm a little cold."

I immediately took off my jacket and put it on Mi Cai's body, pointed to the opposite side of the road and said, "There is a tea restaurant opposite, go and sit in it."

Mi Cai nodded, then walked with me to avoid the traffic flow and walked across the road.

...

In the tea restaurant, Micai and I sat opposite each other. The green tea I drank, the black tea I wanted, and the heat in the tea cup spread in front of us. I looked at Micai through the heat. She was still so beautiful, as if she shouldn't belong to this mortal world.

Mi Cai held the teacup in her hand and turned it gently. She seemed to want to say something, but she didn't know how to speak for a moment.

Finally I broke the silence, but I just asked in a chat about home, "Where are you staying tonight?"

"Hotel." She answered casually, not even looking at me.

"Oh, when will I go back to Suzhou?"

Mi Cai finally looked up at me and asked, "Do you think it's a pity for me to come to Xuzhou to find you?"

"You misunderstood my meaning. I asked this because I was afraid that you were busy with work." I quickly explained.

Mi Cai shook her head and said, "No matter how busy I work, I will come to Xuzhou to find you... I am very grateful for your help without any return."

"You don't have to be so polite, even if others do it, I will do it." I said with a smile.

Mi Cai nodded and remained silent, but I realized that I and Mi Cai had never been together like they are now, which made me feel a little uncomfortable.

Mi Cai looked at me and asked, "What do you plan to do in the future?"

"I've returned to Xuzhou, so I will definitely stay in Xuzhou to live in the future. In fact, it's quite good here, at least I can accompany my family."

Mi Cai looked at me, but she stopped talking!

"Where are you Zhuomei, are you stable now?"

"It has stabilized for the time being, but this is just the beginning, and similar events may still occur in the future." Mi Cai replied with a little depressed mood.

I sighed softly in my heart, and of course I knew that Mi Zhongde would not give up Zhuomi's control so easily. There must be other bad actions against Mi Cai later, and I felt more sympathetic to Mi Cai. After all, the one who plotted against her was her biological uncle, but I could do nothing, and I could only help her once.

"I heard from Fang Yuan that this time you lost the job opportunity you won only by chance. Do you regret paying such a great price?"

I shook my head and said, "Actually, I really struggled for a long time. After all, human nature is selfish, but when I really make up my mind, I won't regret it."

Mi Cai took a sip of hot tea and finally asked me as if she had made up her mind: "Zhaoyang, are you willing to go back to Suzhou and join our Zhuomei Shopping Center?"

"Are you compensation? Or do you think I need compensation like this?"

"If you want to make compensation, you won't tell me all this in that way. I just hope you join Zhuomei. First, you don't have a job now, second, you are engaged in planning work, third, working in Zhuomei is a good choice."

I asked with a smile, "If Fang Yuan didn't tell you this, would you invite me to join Zhuomei? After all, you just didn't feel sorry for it, but there was really no need for this!"

"I admit that I am really sorry, but have you ever wondered why Fang Yuan told me this? He doesn't want you to lose your job because of this incident. He hopes you can continue to stay in Suzhou. After all, that's where you have worked hard."

I shook my head and said, "What you said is inaccurate. Suzhou is not the place I have worked hard for, and all the memories of Suzhou are gray because I was depressed and depressed there..."

Mi Cai didn't say anything anymore. She was obviously not good at being a lobbyist, and I really didn't want to go back to Suzhou because I couldn't find the meaning of going back.

It is even more impossible to join Zhuomei, because this will make my choice full of interest. It seems that doing this in order to join Zhuomei will make me feel even more ashamed of Chen Jingming. No matter what, I am not willing to live with such guilt.

I am willing to regard Xuzhou, the city where my life began, as a safe haven for life, and live and work here from now on.
