Chapter 326: Accidental Meeting

Before I knew it, the night was already deep. I walked aimlessly on the streets of the city, and I didn’t know how many roads I walked and how many streets and alleys I passed. The cold night wind in winter blew on my body, making people tremble while also keeping their minds awake. I kept thinking, but the more I woke up, the more I realized that no matter what I did, it would inevitably cause harm to Ferena. Soon, the pack of cigarettes that were not too much left in my pocket was finally finished. I threw away the empty smoke shell that had been kneaded by me. I saw that there seemed to be a small convenience store not far ahead, so I stride over.

I am going to buy another pack of cigarettes. This convenience store is indeed very small. After entering, I saw that there was only a three-layer and two-sided shelf in the middle except for a circle of shelves around. It seemed that there was a customer who was already choosing things on the other side of the shelves, but my implementation was just blocked by the shelves, so I didn’t see the customer’s face. Of course, when I came in, I bought cigarettes and didn’t want to see anyone’s face. I walked directly to the owner’s counter, looked up and looked at Yan Jia behind her. I found that this convenience store was not timid. Even the goods were very incomplete. There was no other brand on the cigarette rack except the common types of cigarettes on the market.

The owner is a middle-aged woman in her forties. When she saw my eyes just staring at the cigarette holder, she knew that I just needed cigarettes. So she asked me: "Young man, what cigarettes do you want to buy?" Since my sister Yingying's eyes were cured, I no longer need to save money and save every penny as before. Especially recently, my mother has also lived in a new house, and the quality of life has been greatly improved. In addition, my income is enough to make our family comfortable and no longer have time to be short of money. Therefore, I treat myself no longer as much as before.

Stingy. Of course, this is related to the constant requests and reminders of my wife Tang Xiaoru. No matter what, I am the vice president of the company. Now I am successful in my career and the husband of the company's president. I still live a stingy life, which is detrimental and identity. So after getting married, I started smoking that kind of medium and high-end cigarette. Generally speaking, I like to smoke Yuxi cigarettes that cost 20 yuan a pack. But now I look at the cigarette stands in this store, let alone Yuxi cigarettes, not to mention Yuxi cigarettes, even Yunnan-style pipes. I was in trouble. After hesitating for a moment, I simply asked directly: "Is there any Yuxi cigarette?"

The owner shook his head and said with a wry smile: "We have very few smokers in Yuxi, so I have never been in. Otherwise, can you see if other cigarettes work?

Other cigarettes? I frowned and looked at the cigarette holder behind the shop owner again. In addition to Zhonghua cigarettes, there are several popular cigarettes commonly found on the market, as well as two types of external cigarettes. I don’t like to smoke these cigarettes. Although Zhonghua cigarettes are OK, the price is too expensive. I say I am rich, but my thoughts are still in the poor stage. I feel that smoking this high-end cigarette of 4 or 50 is too luxurious from the bottom of my heart.

At this moment, I suddenly heard someone sneering behind me, and then a very familiar voice came: "Buy China! Men should smoke less, and even better. You can afford to smoke Yuxi, do you still care about spending more than 20 yuan?"

When I heard this voice, my heart trembled. I suddenly turned around, and it turned out... it was her!

The woman in front of me was obviously no longer young. The thin girl seemed to be a little fatter now, and her face had a more mature charm that a girl did not have. She was holding a few snacks in her hand and smiling at me. Her expression showed the joy of an unexpected meeting.

I immediately shouted in surprise: "Shanshan! Why are you?"

Shi Shanshan smiled so much that she changed her eyes long, but she gave me a blank look. While walking over and putting the snacks in her hand on the counter, she angrily said to me: "Shanshan is also something you can call? I'm not your girlfriend for a long time, right?"

I rubbed my hands excitedly and laughed, "It's been a long time, it's almost four years, but I didn't expect to meet you here."

While signaling the shop owner to settle the score, Shi Shanshan smiled and said to me: "I didn't expect it. By the way, it's so late, why did you come here to buy cigarettes?"

I said, "I have nothing to do to wander around at night. When I got here, I just finished smoking cigarettes, so I came in to buy a pack of cigarettes. I didn't expect that you would buy things here too, haha!"

Shi Shanshan didn't believe it: "It's okay to wander around? You?"

I knew Shi Shanshan knew me, and I was not the kind of person who likes to wander around without any trouble, but to explain it, it was not a matter of saying a few sentences. So I didn't plan to explain anything, but asked, "By the way, aren't you living in the east of the city? Why are you going here to buy things?"

As soon as I said that, I immediately realized that I had asked extra questions. Shi Shanshan and I have been breaking up for more than four years. After such a long time, he should be getting married now, right? Maybe she and her husband live nearby here, so what's so strange about going here to buy something?

At this time, the shop owner had calculated the total price of the snacks Shi Shanshan bought and said, "It's 12.50 cents in total." Shi Shanshan did not answer my question first, took out her wallet from her pocket, and while paying for it, she said, "Oh, get me a bag of Zhonghua cigarettes, how much is the total cigarette?"

As soon as I was stunned, I immediately reacted, hurriedly took out my own wallet, and said anxiously: "No, no, no, I'll do it myself, boss lady, don't charge her money!"

The shop owner first put a pack of Chinese cigarettes on the counter, and then looked at us with a smile and stopped talking.

Shi Shanshan blushed and gave me a blank look, and said, "Did I say I bought this pack of cigarettes for you? Why are you so excited?"

My hands froze immediately and said in extreme embarrassment: "Ah? Not... for me?"

Shi Shanshan simply ignored me, took out a hundred-dollar bill and handed it to the shop owner, and quickly picked up the cigarettes and snacks on the counter. When the shop owner got the money back, she didn't even look at me, so she turned around and pushed open the store door and went out.

Although I was a little confused, I finally met her for so many years, and I had to separate without saying a word. I always felt that it was not appropriate. So I didn't have time to buy cigarettes, so I hurriedly chased out of the store and shouted, "Shanshan, don't leave, I have something to say to you."

Shi Shanshan actually didn't go much far, and she had stopped while talking and turned to look at me. I walked to her and said sincerely: "I haven't seen you for so many years, are you doing well? If you don't mind, talk to me, okay?"
