50. Anti-eye
I glanced out the dark window, "Mr. Chen, it's too late, we'll see you in Yiting tomorrow, I just happen to have something." β
"My patience is limited. β
I found a down jacket to wrap up and quietly went downstairs and went out. Through the street lamp, I saw that Chen Ziyan's car was parked not far away, and I trotted over, pulled the door and sat in the passenger seat.
Chen Ziyan held a cigarette between his fingertips, and he squinted his eyes and stared straight at me, "Nothing to say?"
"Absolutely. β
I recounted what Xu Ran had come to me again, without adding any fuel or vinegar.
Chen Ziyan smiled, "She moves quite fast." β
I flattened the folds of my pajama pants, "Xu Ran is menacing, and I'm a little at a loss." She has a reasonable upper hand, and I have no advantage in the lower hand. β
Chen Ziyan extinguished the cigarette, "We will be officially engaged in a few days, and she should be very busy." β
I didn't speak, and there was silence in the carriage.
After a while, I chuckled and looked at Chen Ziyan's masculine side face with burning eyes, "Then I will congratulate Mr. Chen." β
He sneered, and his long arms reached over and rubbed my hair lightly, "There will be many unexpected things in the future, you have to learn to get used to it." β
"Mr. Chen, rest assured, my specialty is super adaptability. β
Chen Ziyan smiled playfully, "I'm waiting to enjoy Miss Li's performance." After a pause, he added, "Now is the time for me to claim something in return." β
The next day I didn't go to the company, I bought lilies and went to the cemetery to see my parents. The cemetery is at the top of the mountain, and the car can only drive halfway up the mountain, and the rest of the road has to be walked.
The photo on the tombstone was taken by me on their twentieth wedding anniversary, and their faces were beaming with happiness. I found a tissue to wipe the tombstone, sat next to them and talked to them, and before I knew it, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.
I stood up and patted my numb leg a few times, and looked up just in time to catch a glimpse of Lin Jiasheng, who was wearing black sunglasses and holding a sunflower in his arms, walking from the north. I hurriedly lowered my head and hid under the tombstone, watching him walk towards the tombstone not far away.
About half an hour later, Lin Jiasheng left. I followed his path again, and sure enough, I saw sunflowers at the end of the line. Strangely, there was nothing on the tombstone, no photos, no names.
He must have come to worship someone very important.
I didn't hesitate to go down the mountain directly, I met Lin Jiasheng again in the parking lot halfway up the mountain, he hadn't left yet, he was talking to a middle-aged man, he took out a stack of cash and handed it to the man, and looked at the top of the mountain for a long time before driving away.
Not long after descending the mountain, Liu Qi asked me to go to Huasheng, and my sisters had a party to celebrate her about to say goodbye to being single and entering the ranks of married women.
I haven't been in touch with my high school classmates for a long time, and they are very familiar with each other, which completely avoids my embarrassment. After the first half, I collapsed in the corner of the sofa and listened to their ghosts crying wolf singing, Liu Qi fed me a few pieces of watermelon, and I closed my eyes and wanted to rest.
A few sisters next to me huddled together, and you said something excitedly. After listening to me for a long time, I realized that they were talking about Chen Ziyan, and the most important thing was that he brought a close female companion.
I suddenly felt a lot more energetic, and I listened carefully to what they had to say.
They saw that I woke up, and pulled me into the second half of the event, and I played the game very badly, and basically lost all the time, and drank more than ten beers. Halfway through, I went outside to go to the toilet to ventilate, and after several circles in the corridor, I saw Chen Ziyan holding Zou Jingyi's shoulders and coming out of the box.
Zou Jing smiled in a variety of ways, saying something in his mouth, Chen Ziyan also showed rare patience, lowered his eyes and listened quietly, with a doting smile on the corner of his mouth.
This is the Chen Ziyan I rarely see.
I hid in the safe passage and watched them disappear around the corner, probably another night of affection. I blew the wind at the window and waited until I felt cold.
When I returned to the box and played the game, I went a lot and won several games in a row, which was a shame. The game got tired of playing and started a round of singing, tossing until more than one o'clock to end, we were basically drunk, so we simply opened a room in the hotel next to it and slept for one night.
I slept until I woke up, sent a message to Jiang Ping, and went to the company in the afternoon. I waited for Liu Qi to wake up, the two of us washed up and went to breakfast, I asked Lin Jiasheng about the situation, Liu Qi said that his parents are alive, but they are living abroad, and they will come back when they get married.
I was a little confused, but I didn't talk much.
In the afternoon, I kept following the news, pushing one after another, but there was nothing I wanted.
A few days later, I was invited to attend a charity reception, and I gave a small love despite my limited ability. When leaving, I met Chen Ziyan in the front hall of the hotel, he was wearing black sunglasses, and his arms were held by a pair of white and tender hands, and the owner of these hands was delicate and charming, and I had to praise Chen Ziyan for his really good vision.
I hid behind the greenery and quietly took a few pictures.
I hired a private investigator to investigate the woman, and within a day the detective sent me a detailed email. That woman is an unknown little model, I heard that she has been very popular with Chen Ziyan recently, and she has had many opportunities to appear, and she has received several endorsements, which can be regarded as a slight improvement in her career.
I counted the days, and Chen Ziyan hadn't contacted me for a while.
The next day, there was a piece of news that Chen Ziyan and Xu Ran appeared in the jewelry store to buy a wedding ring, he held Xu Ran's hand, Xu Ran looked shy, tried the ring on the counter, like a loving couple.
I read a few popular comments with relish, all of them were words of praise and blessings, and I also posted a blessed comment on the trumpet and then turned off the lights and went to sleep.
After about an hour, I got up and took my phone from the bedside table and sent a text message, put it back in, and went to sleep with the lights off again.
The next day, I went to the garment factory to inspect the site and sent a video to the customer, and they were very satisfied that they had to sign the contract that night. This time, I learned well, asked the customer to pay half more for the goods, and signed the contract when the money arrived.
On the weekend, I was invited to attend a charity reception, and I knew many of the people present, and several of them wanted to come up to talk to me, but as soon as they got up, they were poked a few times by the people next to them, and I followed the direction of her finger and saw Chen Ziyan coming with a dream talk.
Everyone around me looked at me.
I kept a smile and found my place to sit down.
Tan Meng looked at me with a smile, and showed an amiable smile before holding Chen Ziyan and sitting down. He smiled lightly and straightened the hem of her skirt for Tan Meng, tucked the broken hair between her sideburns, and didn't look back, as if we were complete strangers.
A few people around began to whisper, looking at me for a while, looking at Chen Ziyan for a while, and wanting to stop talking a few times.
Thankfully, they haven't laughed at me yet.
I squeezed my handbag tightly and fidgeted at first, but then I gradually calmed down a lot, and I looked at me and pursed my lips and smiled to say hello.
I went to the bathroom to touch up my makeup, and I came in not long after I went in, and by the way, I locked the door. I didn't want to cause trouble, so I took my bag and was about to leave, but Tan Meng didn't let me go, blocked my way, and looked at me with a sneer, "Let's talk." β
"What are you talking about?"
Tan Meng said, "The only person we can talk about is Chen Ziyan." β
I stared at her and waited for her to continue.
"You're a little lonely tonight, aren't you still a little jealous, I heard that you were quite beautiful before. I have a few financial resources in my hand, age and appearance are a little worse, but there is money, but sometimes there are special habits in bed, this is not a big deal, I am soft-hearted, I like to be enthusiastic about helping others, leave your phone, next time I introduce it to you, it can be regarded as a help for you. β
She reached out and grabbed my handbag.
I ducked sideways, squeezing my handbag behind me, "Then I thank you." Contrary to you, I hate being meddled more than anything else. As we all know, Chen Ziyan has a well-connected fiancΓ©e, you and I are just playing, you really think that you have entered the house and become Mrs. Chen. Being a man is not self-sufficient, but it is a big taboo. β
Tan Meng didn't get angry, but smiled, "Can you exchange money for fake Qinggao, it's better to be a snob." knows why you were dumped by Chen Ziyan, it is because you pretended to be high. Isn't it because men are tired of the people around them and want to taste something new, but you just want to pretend to be a noble lady of the daughter, and men will get bored after a few glances, and they won't be able to last long. β
I laughed, "Thank you for being nosy, and it's not too late for you to really become Mrs. Chan and dictate to me again." Besides, it's just the beginning, who loses or who wins, maybe the owner will keep it for you, I dislike it very much, and I don't like old men with bald heads and big yellow teeth. β
Tan Meng stroked his curly hair, "Then let's wait and see." But I advise you to change it, otherwise a man with a bald head and big yellow teeth may not be able to take a fancy to you. β
The footsteps were gradual, and suddenly he tore his hair and skirt a few times, pinched his face, his eyes were slightly red, and tears flowed down in the blink of an eye. Her whole set of movements was so fluid that I couldn't react at all.
The waiter stood at the door with the key and Madame Wang.
Madame Wang exclaimed, her eyes wandered before I talked about the dream, waved her hand away from the waiter, told her not to talk nonsense, and then closed the door and came in.
"Ziyan likes me, I can't control this. I know you're not satisfied, you lose your temper with me, verbally abuse, or even do anything, as long as you're angry. β
Tan Meng preemptively said with a crying voice.
Her acting skills are familiar and smooth, and she can't see pretentiousness, as if it really happened. I stared at her silently, not knowing what to say.
Mrs. Wang met me at the reception before and talked to me.
She leaned into my ear and whispered, "You're too much to breathe." Where is this, you let yourself lose a lot, and besides, Mr. Chen is still outside, you have no scruples. β
Listening to Mrs. Wang's words, she recognized what I had done to talk about the dream. That's right, when a clear-eyed person looks at us, one of us is well-dressed and the other is embarrassed, and we can tell who is right and who is wrong.
I didn't defend myself, staring at a lipstick mark on the corner of Tan Meng's mouth, "You have the means." β
The addiction to talking about dreams came up again, she choked up a few times, and said aggrievedly, "Don't worry, I won't tell Ziyan, I'll just say that I accidentally hit it myself, and I won't betray you." β
Hearing this, she is indeed a woman with a good heart.
Mrs. Wang coughed lightly a few times, intending to round the field, "This may be a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding." She cut Tan Meng's hair and skirt, found a tissue and handed it to Tan Meng.
Tan Meng wiped his face and showed me a sweet and charming smile when he was free, like a harmless little girl.
I didn't stay long, I went straight out with my skirt.
Chen Ziyan was talking to people in the hall, and when he saw me coming to him, his face sank instantly, and the atmosphere around him became a little colder. I held my head high and brushed shoulders with him, the hem of my skirt sweeping over his trousers and leather shoes.
We have complete disregard for each other.
Suddenly, there was a commotion, and several people looked behind me, I stopped, and looked back to see Tan Meng walking out, her little face barely squeezed out a little smile, but her reddish eyes were obviously crying.
I and Tan Meng came out one after the other, which obviously led to reverie.
Someone who has done good has whispered and pointed fingers at me.
And Chen Ziyan glanced at me expressionlessly,
I was quite right, smiled at Tan Meng, and left.
I was a little more refreshed when I went out, took a few deep breaths, looked at the bright neon lights and drove home.
Recently, I have been in the company all day, and I have worked a few extra night shifts, and according to Jiang Ping, I have lost a lot of weight, and she urged me to go home and rest after dawn.
I was probably confused, and on the way home I had a car accident and crashed into the guardrail of the sidewalk, but fortunately it was morning, there were not many people on the street, and there was no major accident.
When I woke up again, I was in the hospital, Aunt Zhao was wiping tears from the bedside, my head was wrapped in gauze, and there was pain. Aunt Zhao pressed back to me who was about to get up, and scolded me to be careful and not to move.
As soon as the words fell, Su Ling pushed the door in his hand with the payment slip in his hand.
In an instant, my brain buzzed, and it seemed to explode, giving birth to brilliant fireworks.
The shirt Su Ling wore was exactly what Sun Feifei bought that day, the cuffs of the shirt were tied with blue thread twice, and the neckline also had the logo of the brand, I would never admit it.
I licked the corners of my chapped lips, took the cup and drank a few sips of water, moistened my throat before I spoke, "Aunt Zhao, I didn't say that I and Su Ling had broken up. β
"The patrol called and said you were in a car accident. Aunt Zhao explained, "I'm so scared that my legs are weak, and the whole person has no master, if it weren't for Su Ling, I would still be fainting at home." β
I looked at the payment slip was more than 1,500, I took out the 2,000 I was going to give to Aunt Zhao from my bag and stuffed it into Su Ling's hand, "This is 2,000, and the rest of the money should be taken as a thank you for sending Aunt Zhao to the hospital." β
Su Ling didn't answer, and stared straight at me with a stiff face. And I was not to be outdone, staring at him very unkindly.
Aunt Zhao glanced at the two of us a few times, and then found an excuse to go out.
Su Ling was defeated first, sat on the edge of the bed and sighed, "Mu Yi, do you really want to be so clear with me?"
I also took a tough stance, "We've broken up, of course, every cent has to be clear, and I don't like to owe favors to anyone the most." β
Su Ling said, "I am not as powerful as Chen Ziyan, but I have one of the most precious things, and he absolutely does not have it." That is the sincerity of loving you, I am willing to wait for you until you want to leave Chen Ziyan and live an ordinary life. β
I scoffed.
Su Ling saw that I didn't believe it, and hurriedly held my watch sincerely, "Really." You know I'm not a superficial man, I love you as a person, it has always been, it has never changed, you believe me. β
I wanted to shake off Su Ling's hand, but the movement was too big and attracted the attention of the hospital bed next to me. I leaned weakly on the head of the bed and said softly, "Su Ling, I'm very tired today, I really don't want to say more, you go back first, and I'll ask you to count things clearly another day."
After Su Ling left, Aunt Zhao found a doctor to come in. The doctor said that I had no concussion, that it was nothing serious, and that I would be discharged from the hospital after an overnight observation.
When I went through the discharge procedures the next day, I saw Sun Feifei at the elevator entrance, she was wearing a long white dress, her soft hair hanging down behind her, and she was well-behaved and cute. She was followed by two strong men, who were supposed to be bodyguards, separating her from the noisy crowd.
I just glanced at it and hurriedly withdrew my gaze.
Fortunately, Sun Feifei kept staring at the elevator and didn't look back.
A few days later, I heard that Xu Ran was in trouble with Tan Meng, who was shooting a magazine at the time, Xu Ran took a few people to smash the field directly, and the movement was quite big, and Tan Meng was also admitted back to the hospital. The last time I saw Xu Ran, I thought she was a calm and restrained person, but this time she was so irritable, she must have done something out of the ordinary when she talked about her dreams.
I'm a little curious.
That night, I ran into Zou Jingyi, who was leaning on the shoulders of a middle-aged man with half of her body leaning into his arms, and the two were whispering.
I wanted to walk over quietly, but Zou Jingyi stopped me. The two of us were standing at the safe entrance, she lit a cigarette and asked me if I wanted it, and I waved my hand and said no. She snorted, muttering something out of her mouth.
Her slow and methodical fuss made me a little anxious, and I asked her, "What are you looking for me?"
"Xu Ran moved to talk about dreams, do you know?"
"You care a lot about Chen Ziyan's affairs. β
I asked rhetorically.
Zou Jingyi smiled, "It's okay, this matter has been spreading recently, and there are a lot of people who care." Besides, he is the famous diamond king, and I also want to intervene, but he doesn't give face. β
I held back what I was about to say, and turned around and said, "Then you should know that we are separated." β
"It's okay to divide it, his fiancΓ©e is not a good stubble, she has his stepmother behind her, and she can't easily get it down, isn't talking about dreams an example there. As long as the money is in place, everything else is easy to say, there are men, and there is no shortage of rich men. I think that Bai Dong is a little interesting to you, you grasp it well, it is no worse than Chen Ziyan, and you can turn positive if you perform well. β
Zou Jingyi preached to me, but every sentence was reasonable.
"Thank you for your concern. I smiled and blinked, "Bai Dong is a good proposal, but I don't have to rely on men, it's better to be self-reliant." β
A cold wind came in through the window, blowing Zou Jingyi's hair, she was wearing heavy makeup, looking haggard and vicissitudes, as if she had already looked down on fame, fortune and life and death, and seemed to be obsessed with money.
She stared at me and smiled mockingly, "Innocence is good, but reality will whip you." β
She smiled brightly, twisted her waist and held the gold owner's arm in a variety of ways, and the two laughed and took the room card to the elevator.
I was thinking about Zou Jingyi until I went to bed, I didn't know her well, and I had even only met a few times, but every time I met, she lectured me at length, as if it was really for my good.
I recalled the man around her, it was different every time, she didn't seem to have a fixed owner, she was a veritable courtesan who swirled between different men.
How could a man like her be willing to raise such a beautiful person.
I didn't move, but Mr. Bai asked me first, I found an excuse to refuse, and chatted a few words on the phone. He vaguely asked me about Chen Ziyan, and the rumors had spread, and the purpose of his approach to me was to further confirm.
I didn't admit it generously, and I was a little evasive.
Bai Liangshi smiled heartily, didn't delve into it, and only asked me to meet for dinner another day.
I gladly agreed.
When I was good with Chen Ziyan before, there were some businesses that I didn't need to say more, and naturally someone sent them to the door, but now it is different from the past, and I made an appointment with the other party a few times before agreeing to tonight's entertainment. During the banquet, Qian always poured me to drink, and even stayed next to me, squinting and moving his hands and feet.
