Chapter 141: Tears Under the Mask
"Can I borrow your shoulder to lean on?" Qin Sipo looked at Liu Chen with teary eyes, her weak appearance could not connect her with the strong woman in the business world who was in charge of a company with a market value of hundreds of millions.
Liu Chen's mouth said the word "can" uncontrollably, and he regretted it after speaking, because Qin Si closed his eyes and leaned on Liu Chen's arms like a little woman, not on his shoulder.
Liu Chen could clearly feel the face burned by tears, his heart was pounding violently, he had never been so nervous and uneasy as he was now.
"Do you think I'm casual?" Qin Si raised his head, looked up at Liu Chen, and asked softly.
"No, I don't. Liu Chen's voice was lighter than Qin Si's, his heart was heavy on his heart, his brows were tightly locked, and he didn't dare to look down at Qin Si.
Qin Si felt that Liu Chen's words were insincere, because he didn't dare to look at himself, and his eyes were wandering in a corner.
"You know what? Over the years, no one really knew what kind of life I was living. Everyone envies me, I was in charge of a company worth hundreds of millions of dollars at a young age, driving a luxury car and living in a luxury house, they couldn't see the pressure on me, I didn't have my own life, I worked more than ten hours a day, I didn't even have time to accompany my son to the park, I didn't have any friends around me, and those who approached me all had ugly and dirty purposes. Ever since my husband had an incident, I was forced to take over the company, and the so-called veterans were embarrassed at every turn, and I wanted to see me laugh and even harass me, just because I was a lonely woman who had lost her husband. ”
"This is not the life I want, I don't want to be a big boss, I thought about giving up all this, but this is my husband's life's work, I can't watch it lose in the hands of those people, they only know how to fight for power and profit, never think about the company, a group of short-sighted selfish ghosts, if I didn't insist hard, the company would have collapsed internally, and it is impossible to maintain the current scale. ”
"The most disappointing thing for me is that even his family wants to get a piece of the pie, not only do they not support me, but they are even ready to sue me and take away my shares, and they also want to take away the custody of the child, which I can never promise, the child is all my hope. I'll never forget what his dad said, he said I killed his son, that I was a widow, and I was really sad, that I almost gave birth to the child from the ghost gate, because they insisted on keeping the child. ”
"At work, in life, I am living for others to be embarrassed, I am also a human being, I am a woman, I am afraid that one day I will really not be able to hold on and collapse, really. Not only do I have to manage such a big company, but I also have to find ways to prevent them from taking Xiaoyu away from me, this kind of pressure no one can understand, no one can understand, woo woo woo ......"
Qin Si poured out the grievances hidden in her heart in one breath, and when she said these words, she burst into tears again and cried bitterly.
This heart-rending cry deeply stimulated Liu Chen's heart, he didn't expect that a woman's heart could be so strong and hide so much pain. In this society, everyone is really living with a mask, and the face under the mask, whether it is crying or laughing, maybe even they have forgotten themselves.
Liu Chen didn't know how to comfort her, at this moment, listening quietly might be the best comfort.
However, from Qin Si's confession, Liu Chen also heard some information, and he thought of the vicious abduction of children that occurred at the train station on the day he first came to Jiangxia, which may be related to the predicament she is facing now, which can also explain why she handed over her son to Li Rongfei and took her to Jiangxia, where the situation was a little dangerous.
After Qin Si's emotions calmed down, Liu Chen helped her to the bed to rest, and Xiao Yu had obediently gotten into the bed, but she had not fallen asleep, waiting for her mother to sleep together.
After settling here, Liu Chen waved goodbye to the two of them after a few words of advice.
"Have a good rest, don't think nonsense, no matter how difficult life is, you still have to go on, people live not only for themselves, remember that you still have friends by your side, I'm gone." Liu Chen turned his head to look at Xiao Yu and said, "Xiao Yu, bye." ”
"Bye-bye, uncle. Xiao Yu waved at Liu Chen on the quilt.
Qin Si got up and walked in front of Liu Chen, lowered his head and smiled, raised his head affectionately, and said, "Tonight, thank you." ”
Liu Chen nodded and didn't speak again, turned around and left the room, walking briskly in the aisle without looking back.
Qin Si watched Liu Chen's back disappear at the end of the aisle before closing the door and walking back to the bed.
"Mom, I miss Daddy. ”
"Me too. ”
Liu Chen walked on the way home, and the cold night breeze couldn't dilute the heat in his body. He thought about making a call to Li Rongfei, but he put down his hand when he picked up the phone, and went home first.
Thinking that everyone had fallen asleep, the moment they opened the door, Liu Chen was startled, Dad and Aunt Lin were sitting on the chairs, silently waiting for Liu Chen to come back, and even Xiaomei didn't go back to the room to rest, and waited with them.
"Why, you haven't slept yet?" asked Liu Chen.
Guan Shaoqing beckoned to Liu Chen and said, "Xiaochen, come and sit, let's talk for a while." ”
Liu Chen walked over and pulled a chair and sat down, looking at everyone suspiciously, looking at this posture, there seemed to be something.
"Xiaomei, you go back to your room and sleep first. Guan Shaoqing pushed Xiaomei away.
"Oh. Xiaomei reluctantly got up, walked towards her room, and looked back at Liu Chen.
Liu Chen felt that the house had suddenly become mysterious and secretive, and the atmosphere was a little wrong, and asked, "What's wrong?" Dad, Aunt Lin, what's going on?"
Lin Huimei clenched her palms tightly, not knowing where to start, and finally Guan Shaoqing opened her mouth, and he asked with a serious expression: "It should be that we asked you what happened, what happened to that Miss Qin and you?"
Liu Chen blinked inexplicably: "What's the matter? I'm just ordinary friends with her, she's Xiaofei's best friend." ”
"If Xiaofei is here tonight, what do you think in her heart?" Guan Shaoqing referred to Qin Si's performance tonight, if Xiaofei saw Qin Si so active and enthusiastic, she would definitely not feel good in her heart, after all, this should be the performance she should have, not other girls.
But Liu Chen didn't think so, he defended Qin Si and said: "Well, if Xiaofei is here, Qin Si shouldn't be like this." ”
"Why? Is it really related to Xiaofei?" Guan Shaoqing leaned in front of Liu Chen and looked at him directly.
"Nope. Liu Chen lowered his head and replied.
Liu Chen's words were very unconfident, Guan Shaoqing heard the problem as soon as he heard it, he thought about it for a long time, and finally as an elder, he said to Liu Chen seriously: "Xiaochen, you can't be half-hearted about feelings, maybe you don't have anything to do with Miss Qin, but even Xiaomei can see that she is interesting to you, can't you feel it yourself? We didn't say that Miss Qin was bad, but there is always a first-come-first-served relationship, Xiaofei is a rare good girl, but you can't live up to other girls." ”
The audience was silent for a while, waiting for Liu Chen's expression.
"I know that I won't let Xiaofei down, and I will definitely marry her into the door. ”
Liu Chen's solemn promise also reassured Guan Shaoqing, "Okay, you just know it in your own heart, it's not too early, you go back and rest." They stood up, pulled their chairs back into their place, and slowly walked back to the room.
Liu Chen looked at his father's slightly trembling back, and suddenly understood why his father was so late and still had to wait for him to come back to talk about it, only to feel even more ashamed of Li Rongfei in his heart.
"Dad, Aunt Lin, then I'll go. Liu Chen greeted them, closed the door and left alone. Back in the car, he didn't start the car, leaned on the seat and quietly recalled everything tonight, recalling the good times with Li Rongfei, and finally he picked up his mobile phone and dialed Li Rongfei's number.
Starlight Bar opened its doors early, and this morning there will be a batch of goods delivered from other provinces, this supplier was recommended by Qi Dongsi, to express his sincerity for cooperation. Ji Linyuan and Liu Chen also attached great importance to this matter, and came to the bar early in the morning to welcome the arrival of this batch of goods. Qi Dongsi also led people to the Starlight Bar, with the revised cooperation agreement.
Ordinary guests Ji Linyuan was only received in her office, but today she received Qi Dongsi and others in the living room.
Together with Qi Dongsi are his two left and right protectors, probably to cooperate with today's occasion, they are both wearing very formal suits, and they have always had friendly smiles on their faces, which should be requested by Qi Dongsi.
After the personnel of the two sides took their seats face-to-face, Xiaoru made the new Longjing tea for everyone, and Qi Dongsi took out the cooperation agreement and handed it to Ji Linyuan: "Boss Ji, this agreement has been revised in accordance with the requirements we talked about before, please take a look." ”
Ji Linyuan and Liu Chen glanced at each other, and said with a smile: "Don't look at it, since you want to cooperate, you still have to have at least this trust." After speaking, Ji Linyuan took out a pen and signed his name under Qi Dongsi's signature at the end of the agreement, and stamped it with the official seal.
Qi Dongsi admired Ji Linyuan's straightforward style of acting very much, and was secretly glad that he finally didn't have to be an opponent with her anymore.
After signing the agreement, the two sides also discussed some specific details, hoping that this cooperation can be implemented as soon as possible.
While the two sides were having a good conversation, there was a knock on the door of the living room, and after getting permission, Xiaoru walked in with a nervous expression.
"Brother Liu, there are more than a dozen people looking for you below, and it seems that the person who came is not good. ”
"Looking for me?" Liu Chen thought for a moment and said, "You continue to talk, I'll go down and take a look." After speaking, he followed Xiaoru and walked out.
There were more than a dozen men dressed in the air of rivers and lakes gathered at the front desk of the bar, as soon as he saw this group of people, Liu Chen knew what was going on, it was the fat cow who sent someone to declare war, it was all the old tricks of some people in the rivers and lakes, and they really took themselves seriously.
