Chapter Nine hundred and twentieth Eighth: Finally, the Three Walks (Part 2)
After 11 o'clock in the evening, the meteor shower arrived as scheduled.
Every few minutes later, a shiny white light will pass by the dark night sky like a sharp sword, blooming with an extremely gorgeous light. The meteors that appeared at the beginning are not very dense, and each one has to wait, but each one can bring touching that viewers cannot describe in words.
On the beach, Meng Huo and the other two were chatting and barbecuing while watching the meteor shower. However, it was chatting, Meng Huo felt that she and Alice were talking more. After Chen Jie came back, she was a little silent and asked questions in a mess.
"Give it..." Meng Huo handed Chen Jie a plate of roasted barbecue. Chen Jie thanked her and took it over, and then started eating silently.
"This is yours." Meng Huo handed another plate of barbecue to Alice, and then asked quietly: "Isn't that really happened just now? Why has Chen Jie become so quiet?"
Chen Jie has a cheerful personality. She may have the most talked about when they are together. It is no wonder Meng Huo is surprised. Alice glanced at Chen Jie and shook her head and said, "Nothing happened, maybe she has something to do..."
That's it, but Alice had some guesses about Chen Jie's psychology.
Since she told Chen Jie that she was an indispensable existence for her and Meng Huo, Chen Jie has been thinking for a long time. Alice believes that she must have known the deeper things she expressed in her words.
Alice is an indispensable existence for Chen Jie and Meng Huo. This sentence is more accurate and should be expressed as "No matter what direction Chen Jie and Meng Huo develop in the future, Alice is a chop that they cannot jump over."
Meng Huo is a very strong person, but in terms of emotions, he also has a fragile side. Alice has no doubt that if the final result between her and Meng Huo is that she is injured and left, Meng Huo himself will be injured.
Even if he pretends to be similar on the surface, he is definitely not the one who can drive Alice away and forget him in a cold and bloody way. If Chen Jie got Meng Huo in a way that "he won by herself and Alice lost a big loss", it would be difficult for her to get Meng Huo's true heart.
In any case, when Meng Huo felt guilty towards Alice, there was a knot between him and Shen Jie that could never be untied.
Alice knew Chen Jie, and she knew that this girl would never allow such a thing to happen. What Chen Jie wanted was Meng Huo who accepted her whole body and heart, rather than Meng Huo who always had grudges because of Alice.
It is precisely because of this that Chen Jie suddenly fell into deep thought.
"She was thinking about how to separate Meng Huo and I naturally..." Alice was thinking while eating barbecue. There was no doubt that Chen Jie was thinking about now how to make the matter between Alice and Meng Huo "perfectly", and the result would not make either party feel guilty at least.
However, to make Alice and Meng Huo feel relieved, as far as the current situation is concerned, Chen Jie can't see any hope. Alice is not the one who will give up so simply. As long as she insists on not changing her mind, Chen Jie will not be able to achieve the result of "peace".
"Well, but I'm the same..."
Looking at Chen Jie's face, which sometimes frowned and sometimes pondered, Alice felt a little sad. Just as she was a huge rock spanning between Shen Jie and Meng Huo, why didn't Chen Jie also a huge rock spanning between Alice and Meng Huo?
From this perspective, both Alice and Chen Jie faced the same situation. If the other party could not leave with a smile, even if Meng Huo got it, it would be a loss.
Even if Shen Jie thinks no matter how much she thinks, Alice can't find a way to let Chen Jie leave. Chen Jie's persistence in Meng Huo is not inferior to her, and both of them are smart people. It is impossible to give each other a handle.
"It would be great if this meteor could fall..." When another meteor crossed the night sky, Alice couldn't help but sigh. If the meteor fell, she would no longer have to worry about such things.
"What a coincidence, I think so too."
Unexpectedly, Chen Jie also spoke at this time. She seemed to know that she was doing useless work, so she finally gave up thinking. After the shooting star passed, she started to eat the barbecue in big mouthfuls, and finished all the barbecue in less than a minute.
"Menghuo. Your barbecue skills are really good." She praised, Menghuo smiled, and it seemed that Chen Jie had finally returned to normal.
"I'll bake the rest." Chen Jie put down the plate and grabbed the barbecue tool in Meng Huo's hand: "I'm very good at barbecuing, too."
Barbecue is also a kind of cooking skill. Chen Jie still has a certain degree of confidence. Moreover, when he was camping, Alice stole the limelight, so Chen Jie naturally wanted to steal it back. However, when Alice saw this situation, she immediately stood up: "Then I'll do it too. Although she can't cook, barbecue is still fine."
She walked to Chen Jie with a gloomy smile. When the two women looked at each other, Meng Huo felt that sparks seemed to be sparking in the air.
"Let me do it..." He took a step forward, but the two women turned their heads at the same time and reached out to push him away.
Alice smiled and said, "No, you are tired today, just watch from the side."
"We'll do this kind of small thing." Chen Jie looked at Alice coldly: "By the way, Alice, why don't we compare who can bake it better? Let Meng Huo be the judge, and the loser should agree to the winner one thing."
Alice's smile disappeared immediately. She looked at Chen Jie, "The loser will have to promise the winner in the future." Could it be that Chen Jie wants to use barbecue to persuade her to leave Meng Huo?
This is impossible, how could there be such a silly bet?
Alice didn't think Chen Jie would bet on barbecue such an important thing. Neither she nor Chen Jie would give up Meng Huo because of such a trivial matter. However, this ambiguous statement may be a good opportunity to test the other party.
"Okay." So she agreed, and then took out a lot of barbecue ingredients: "If you want to compare, just make it thoroughly, use all these ingredients!"
When it comes to single barbecue, Chen Jie will definitely have something that she is good at. Alice feels that she has little chance of winning compared to this housework expert. However, if she uses all the ingredients, she believes that she has a higher chance of winning, and Chen Jie's barbecue experience may not be as rich as hers.
Chen Jie was not afraid to fight. The two women chose the ingredients and then grilled them separately.
Meng Huo sat on the paved mat behind and watched their competition. One was a business strongman, and the other was a well-known voice actor. Two people like him who seemed to have nothing to do with outdoor barbecue, but they rolled up their sleeves and fought on the barbecue grill at this moment.
Both of them were very serious and wanted to take out their best works. However, it was twenty minutes later when they finished loading the plate. When they turned around, they saw Meng Huo lying on the mat and closing his eyes.
"Meng..." Chen Jie was about to wake him up, but Alice reached out and stopped him: "Let him sleep!"
She said, "He was tired today, too."
On the first day of the carnival, Meng Huo was busy attending various activities from morning to night. In addition, Xu Jing was absent, so he didn't have much rest today. He returned to the apartment and took a shower and came out to watch the shooting stars. Alice thought it would be better to let him sleep first.
"What should I do with these barbecues?" Chen Jie looked down at the barbecue in her hand.
"I'll eat it." Alice handed the barbecue on her hand to Chen Jie: "You eat mine, I eat yours. Whoever is good and who is bad is not to be judged by Meng Huo, and you and I will know what you are."
Chen Jie hesitated for a moment and exchanged barbecue with Alice.
The two tried each other, and Chen Jie found that Alice's barbecue was no worse than Meng Huo's. It can be seen that she was making it very carefully, and each portion was just right, making people completely unexpected that this was a kitchen idiot's work.
"But I still won..." Chen Jie thought so, and then she saw Alice put down her chopsticks with a complicated look on her face.
"I lost." She said, indeed, no matter how confident she is, she can't compare to Chen Jie.
Alice looked at Chen Jie: "I will remember this bet and owe you something in the future."
Chen Jie put down the barbecue. Although she won, she didn't feel very happy. Alice was surprised that she could do this, and she didn't feel like she won even if she won: "Don't wait until the future. I have something I want to ask you now, just answer me honestly."
She looked at Alice, and it was actually the same as Alice thought. Chen Jie did not expect this bet to allow Alice to retreat, which was obviously a fantasy. And she just wanted to know an answer.
"Alice, I rarely ask for help, but I hope you will answer me if Meng Huo is with me..." This is the first time. Chen Jie said to Alice: "Can't you let me go at once? This is also for his own good. If you don't want to let go, you are not the only one who hurts."
Anger flashed in Alice's eyes: "You are asking me to give in? Am I not giving you enough now?"
"I've never been as greedy as you." She gritted her teeth: "I have no choice but to retreat. On the contrary, you still have room for concessions."
She looked at Chen Jie, and Chen Jie understood what she meant. The two pursued the same thing, but they were different. Alice had said that she had given up a long time ago. All she wanted was Chen Jie's promise, perhaps... she just acquiesced to her relationship with Meng Huo.
What Chen Jie wants is to monopolize Meng Huo. This is natural for all women in this world. No woman is willing to share a man with another person, even if the other party takes the initiative to give up competing for your status with you.
"Chen Jie, is it more important to get Meng Huo?" Alice suddenly said, "Or it more important to lose him?" Now, she simply said it out loud. Today's situation was not Alice's original intention, but Chen Jie's stubbornness forced her to go to the situation of robbing Meng Huo on the front.
"My answer is very simple," Alice said. "I don't want to lose it than to get it, so... I've given you one step, but after this step, I can no longer give in."
At this moment, looking at Alice's angry eyes, Chen Jie had already fully understood her psychology.
Actually, Chen Jie also knows which is more important, and Alice is afraid, so why isn’t she? She can really beat Alice? Chen Jie doesn’t have enough confidence in her heart, especially after seeing Meng Huo’s eyes.
Meng Huo looked at her and Alice, making Chen Jie unable to tell who is more important to him. Although Chen Jie felt that she had a greater chance of winning, the other party was an enemy who could not give in, like a injured lioness, which also made her feel threatened.
Chen Jie's expression changed a lot. After a long time, her phone sent a text message ringtone.
"You have a pleasant date with Meng Huo? Don't forget to thank us in the future. This was something we deliberately gave to you!"
This is Liu Yun's message. The photos include photos of her and Han Xuan. These people stood under the meteor and took photos with other tourists. Obviously, they were not working overtime like Liu Yun said before. Chen Jie immediately understood that Alice did not lie, she did not obstruct them.
Why have I never thought about this possibility?
Chen Jie thought, in the final analysis, maybe she has been hostile to Alice in her heart and has never been able to trust her completely. However, for some reason, after realizing this, and seeing Alice's angry eyes again, Chen Jie suddenly felt that something had fallen in her heart.
She had a thought, and then she couldn't help but close her eyes, feeling that she must be crazy.
But perhaps it was impulse, she could try to trust Alice more. Chen Jie suddenly took a deep breath, opened her eyes, and her eyes changed: "Then you prove it to me..."
Alice's eyes turned from anger to surprise: "Prove, what is it?"
"I have never believed you to give in and never believed what you said..." Chen Jie said lightly: "But you can try to make me believe it."
If Alice has no choice but to retreat, if she even wins, she will still leave Alice's scars in Meng Huo's heart, if she can't get Meng Huo's complete heart and body no matter what she does, then Chen Jie knows what she should do...
"You want me to believe that the three of us can live together."
At this moment, under the shining meteor shower, Alice showed a shake that Chen Jie had never seen before, and soon she shed tears. Silently, without any sound, tears fell on the sand under her feet.
She turned around and reached out to wipe her tears. It was just such an action, but from this moment on, her world has changed not only her, but perhaps the world of her, Shen Jie, and Meng Huo have all changed.
After many years, Chen Jie finally changed herself. Now she has become so terrible. Alice believes that Chen Jie, who has gradually changed, will not lose to anyone in the future, whether in work or life.
"I will prove it to you." After tears, Alice turned around and stretched out her hand to Chen Jie.
