Chapter 29: The Crack
In the month that Luo Lin was injured, the company's operation has been quite stable, and there has been no major change on Cong Su's side, and the gap in her company has gradually been filled, but she has been working day and night for several months to make her fall ill, and the previous stomach disease has deteriorated into a stomach ulcer, she can't be hospitalized, so she can only buy medicine to top, and soon Bai Zijia learned to make porridge, all kinds of porridge to nourish the stomach, but Cong Su didn't go home much, so he didn't eat it a few times.
Every time Bai Zijia habitually stews a pot of porridge in the afternoon, she also has a job, but every time she is empty, a certain sense of powerlessness will always spread all over her body. They who used to support each other seemed to be getting weaker and weaker, Luo Lin and Cong Su stood at the same level, and she couldn't reach it, so all she could do was cook a pot of porridge.
Cong Su was busy in the dark, there were still several projects that had not been completed in late autumn, Luo Lin saved her a lot of effort in his spare time to help her follow up the project after he recovered from his injury, and the two of them were still working overtime in the office at ten o'clock in the evening, Luo Lin looked up and saw that Cong Su was buried in the pile of documents, "It's more than ten o'clock, I'll order a supper, don't get sick again if you have a bad stomach." ”
"Whatever you want. Cong Su replied without raising his head.
"I'm really convinced of you, aren't you tired?" Luo Lin pounded his sore shoulder, seeing that Cong Su's eyes never left the computer, he sighed lightly, and his tone suddenly became serious, "If you continue like this, I see that you don't know what kind of illness you are going to boil up, and it's not that you can't operate without this empty company, you go to rest after supper." ”
Luo Lin spoke straight, but it was not unreasonable, she was indeed tired, she wanted to rest, but every time she was free, all the mess would be desperately squeezed into her mind, his stepfather, and Cheng Zhifeng, there would definitely be no more revenge on her in the future.
Cong Su had thought more than once that it would be nice to have nothing, and that's all they wanted. But Cong's mother has worked hard all her life to Sanning, and she must not be lost in her own hands......
"Can you drink pumpkin porridge? Luo Lin's words interrupted Cong Su's thinking, she nodded woodenly, drank a bowl of porridge in a few minutes, there were only a few reclining chairs in the office, Cong Su squinted for a while, she really couldn't sleep, she secretly glanced at Luo Lin, who was still working on the project, and remembered to continue working.
"Cong Su, don't get up first, I have something I want to ask you. Luo Lin stopped what he was doing, he didn't look at the direction of Cong Su, but stared at the computer screen quietly, "They treat you like that, have you thought of any way to fight back?"
“......”
Cong Su was silent for a long time, she didn't know how to answer, the soldiers would block the water and cover the earth, but all her weaknesses were in the hands of others, what could she do?
"Take a step, look at a step. Cong Su's voice was very low, and if she didn't listen carefully, she couldn't even hear what she was saying, it was raining lightly outside the window, and the sound was muffled by the sound of cars coming and going, and it was a mess.
Luo Lin didn't ask more, and after a while, Cong Su got up, and after twelve o'clock, Cong Su pushed Luo Lin away, and handled it alone until more than four o'clock in the morning, and when Ye Wen arrived at the company at six o'clock in the morning, she fell asleep on the table very deeply, and she suddenly woke up at seven o'clock, "Ye Wen, is it nine o'clock when I went to the factory to see the progress today?"
"It's nine o'clock tomorrow, black-eyed, have you reversed the wrong day day and night?" Ye Wen sighed reproachfully and distressedly, "Stop and rest for a while, even if you are forced to do nothing, you can't exhaust yourself." ”
Cong Su heard that Ye Wen was angry, she paused, and put the document in her hand aside, "Then I'll sleep for another two hours and call me when I have a meeting." ”
"That's pretty much it. ”
This sleep Cong Su did not sleep peacefully, slept for more than an hour and suddenly woke up, for fear of sleeping, hurriedly packed up the hair and makeup and went to the meeting, the progress of the various departments was reported to the end of the work was almost noon, she almost shook into the office, lying on the office chair, staring blankly at the computer screen, unable to see anything.
The 10 million vacancy that was blackmailed by Xia Shuhan has actually been almost filled, and so many employees and friends have accompanied her to support her during this time, but she is still exhausted.
Treating the symptoms but not the root cause, as long as Xia Shuhan and Cheng Zhifeng are still there, neither she nor Bai Zijia have a peaceful birthday.
Cong Su's nervous state lasted for three or four months, and only relaxed a little when the vacancy was completely filled and returned to normal, after she dealt with the company's more urgent matters, she went to a high-end Western restaurant at seven o'clock in the evening, and there was only one person sitting by the window in the empty hall, she took a deep breath and walked over, and did not sit down immediately.
After a few minutes, the man seemed to unintentionally spot her, and a gentleman's smile appeared on his face, "It's coming quietly, why don't you sit down." ”
The first time we met in Cheng Zhifeng's office, his fierce appearance was like another person compared to the current man, Cong Su was too lazy to pretend, and sat down opposite him expressionlessly, without speaking for a long time, neither of them spoke.
Cong Su was motionless and didn't say a word, Cheng Zhifeng drank the coffee in front of him slowly, the rich and bitter coffee aroma smelled refreshing, and when a cup of coffee was about to bottom, the man spoke.
"To be honest, I don't hate you as much as I did when I see you now. Cheng Zhifeng drank all the coffee in the cup, and the smile on his face was even bigger, "You and Bai Zijia have suffered so many crimes, and I feel much more comfortable." ”
"You know, Xia Shuhan, I can't control what he wants to do, Cong Su, if you have a way, you can clean up your stepfather's. ”
"What if he cleans him up so that he doesn't dare to do anything again, don't you still refuse to let go of me and Bai Zijia. Cong Su's tone was lifeless, and he didn't seem to have the slightest idea of negotiating.
"Do you know that there is no room for refuge, and you still take the initiative to see me?"
"Because I don't want to be so passive anymore. Cong Su slowly raised his head, and the sharpness in his eyes made Cheng Zhifeng stunned for a moment, "Cheng Zhifeng, you can take revenge on me, but don't touch my family, this is my bottom line." ”
"Cong Su, don't work hard, it's not fun. Cheng Zhifeng was still smiling, he put down the tableware in his hand, "I took revenge on you, but you can't count any revenge on my head, I will admit what I have done, but then again, what is it to suffer a little flesh and skin, the most painful thing is the wound buried in my heart." ”
"What do you mean?"
"You're gay, your mother doesn't know about it, right?" Cheng Zhifeng elegantly wiped his hands with wet wipes, "Paper can't hold the fire, I don't need to reveal it, she will know sooner or later." ”
"Maybe this is retribution, even if I don't interfere, your life in the future will not be easy. ”
"Would the girl you're talking about want to see you like this?"
Cheng Zhifeng suddenly paused halfway through, his heart seemed to be clenched, and he couldn't breathe in pain, "Don't mention her to me, you're not qualified to talk about her." ”
"Cheng Zhifeng, in fact, I can understand you, this matter is wrong between me and Bai Zijia, I didn't help you for help in time, I have been running away for as long as I have amnesia, I'm sorry. ”
"This is not an apology for Bai Zijia, it is my own apology. ”
Cong Su's attitude was sincere, Cheng Zhifeng stared at her as if he was staring her out of a hole, and after a long time, he sighed lightly, "You at least have a conscience than Bai Zijia, I think you are also a poor person, you don't know if you are being used, why did you come out to apologize, Bai Zijia, she didn't dare to see me?
"If she apologized to you, would you forgive her?"
"Of course not. ”
Cheng Zhifeng replied decisively, "Cong Su, let me tell you this, you are equivalent to Bai Zijia's shield, I can only clean up Bai Zijia if I knock you down, Cong Su, think about it yourself, how innocent it is to lie down." The man bowed forward slightly, "But I can give you a chance, if you choose to stay away from her, I can let you go, but she, I must settle it with her." ”
"Two paths, I've put them here, you choose. ”
Cong Su secretly clenched her fists, she wanted to keep Sanning, but she couldn't leave Bai Zijia behind, it was no one else, it was the person who accompanied her through the difficulties when she was the most difficult, that was Bai Zijia.
She gritted her teeth, "I can't leave her alone." ”
"Very well, Rollin said you were stubborn, it seems to be true. Cheng Zhifeng knew that there was no need to talk about it anymore, and when he passed by Cong Su, he patted Cong Su on the shoulder, "Cong is always a smart person, you should think about it carefully, whether that person named Bai Zijia is worth your maintenance." ”
Cong Su raised her hand and touched her forehead, a thin layer of sweat oozed from her, she breathed a sigh of relief, and actually laughed.
She laughed at herself for being too undetermined, and actually became suspicious of Bai Zijia because of Cheng Zhifeng's words.
She didn't tell anyone about Cong Su's meeting with Cheng Zhifeng, and when she got home, a tempting smell of rice came to her nose, and Bai Zijia wore an apron like a happy little cook, "I'm back, and the meal is ready." ”
Cong Su walked to the dining table and took chopsticks and was eager to try, "Well, I still prefer to eat Sichuan food." ”
"I don't think your stomach hurts anymore. Bai Zijia knocked Cong Su's head with chopsticks, the two sat facing each other, the three dishes were swept away, Cong Su touched his bulging belly, "Every time I eat a lot, I comfort myself, I definitely don't eat as much as Ye Wen, and my heart is much more balanced." ”
"How can she eat so much?"
"Coco Ye's father is a gambler, he always gambles with the family's money, and when he loses the bet, he gets drunk. When I was in college, I didn't talk much and didn't have any friends, she was always with me, and she was the only friend I had in college. ”
"Coco Ye is really good. Bai Zijia nodded, her eyes staring at the TV screen, Cong Su glanced at her several times, hesitated again and again, and plucked up the courage to ask a question that she had always wanted to ask and wanted to know the answer to the most.
"Zijia, your university is abroad...... How are you doing?"
Bai Zijia knew that Cong Su asked more than this, she wanted to know the reason why she ran abroad without saying a word, why she came back suddenly, Bai Zijia raised her hand and brushed the broken hair in her ear, "Fortunately, it was a little unaccustomed at the beginning." ”
"Yes, yes, it is inevitable that the water and soil will not adapt. Cong Su echoed, but his heart slowly sank.
Cong Su's temptation was like two darts, all of them hit the stone without exception, she knew that Bai Zijia was fooling her, but she couldn't ask any more.
Later, Bai Zijia suddenly understood that when there was suspicion between the two and they wanted to use lies to perfunctory, no matter how deep the relationship was, it would eventually break down one day.
