Before I could see Renee's reaction, my heart was already pounding, then I felt breathless, and in that moment of suffocation, I regretted what I had done. It was as if I had blasphemed, and then destroyed the fortress I had built with my own hands, allowing those emotions that should have been hidden to come out into the open.
Renee still looked away as before, and the gusts of wind blew the direct light around, obscuring her face.
"Tell me, what do I like about you?" She asked me after a long while.
My soul shrunk in the heat of the flames, in pain... I'm just a filthy man, I've fallen, but she's pure, I have nothing, she's so rich... So what does she like about me?
If we were two wicks that needed to be lit, but didn't have the nourishing lamp oil, even if we were twisted together, we would suffocate each other, and we couldn't escape the torment of those years...
I lit a cigarette and exhaled the smoke towards Renee, laughing, "Just kidding...why make it seem like you're doing academic research and have to get to the bottom of it!"
Renee dispersed the smoke with disgust and turned to walk towards the bar.
Watching her back, I stubbed out the cigarette I had only taken a drag from, then crouched on the ground but looked up at the sky. It was a windy night, but the moonlight was good. I guessed that the city had been blown by the damned wind behind the moon again!
As a result, I couldn't find a reference direction to light the fireworks that should have been gorgeous!
...
In the bar, customers and friends who came to support the event had already taken their seats, and CC was quietly singing in the hazy light.
I looked up and finally found Renee in the crowd. At the moment, she was sitting with Mark, Harlan and the others. I wanted to go over to her, but I couldn't even find an empty seat.
Brittany and Natalie were sitting in another corner, and there was an empty seat. I hesitated whether or not to go over, but there really weren't many empty seats in the bar at the moment, and even the seats in front of the bar were occupied.
I finally walked over to Natalie and Brittany, and when I was about to sit down, I noticed Natalie's handbag on the seat.
Natalie smiled at me and said, "What do you think? Isn't my sister considerate? I saved this seat for you. There are a lot of people here today!"
I suddenly realized why this seat was empty despite the crowded bar.
I put Natalie's handbag on the coffee table, sat down next to her, and asked, "Why aren't you sitting with Harlan?"
"They are colleagues chatting together, so I didn't bother to join in. By the way, I really want to thank you for recommending Harlan to Jumei, this is the best opportunity in his career!"
"It's Harlan's ability," I said, subconsciously looking over to Renee's side. At this time, Harlan and Mark have officially taken up positions at Jumei. I look forward to them becoming Renee's helpers and completely freeing her from being alone.
Brittany, who had not spoken up until now, finally spoke up and said, "Lucas, I have received the 510,000 yuan you transferred." Then she took out 10,000 yuan in cash from her handbag and placed it in front of me and said, "You can take the 10,000 yuan back, I don't need it."
I shook my head and said, 'This is something Violetta insisted on giving you, so you should take it. You should understand what she meant."
Brittany smiled with emotion and said, 'Because I am your ex-girlfriend, she doesn't want to owe me a favor!"
