Mu Hibiscus followed Mrs. Shi back to Shi's house at the age of sixteen, and she was at a loss in the face of all the things of the Shi family, like a country girl entering the city.

She had a chest of beautiful clothes and shoes, a room full of brand-new books, a castle-like house, a yard full of flowers, and delicate plates with fine food, all of which belonged to her, and she felt like the princess that Hans Christian Andersen described in his pen.

"Do you like it here?" said Mrs. Shi, picking a rose and handing it to her.

Hibiscus nodded, but her eyes fell on the window on the third floor, which was covered by a curtain, and there seemed to be a figure standing behind the curtain just now.

"That's good. ”

Hibiscus withdrew her gaze, and she thought maybe she was mistaken.

"But when will I be able to go to school?" she hadn't been to school for three days.

"Hibiscus, you will live here in the future, okay?" Mrs. Shi took the rings of the four earth-colored paper rolls that Aunt Wu brought and put them on her wrists, "But you can't go to school, I will arrange for the best tutor to tutor you." ”

"But ......"

Mrs. Shi pulled her into the house and went upstairs, although she felt strange but still followed, until they reached the door of the rightmost room in the corridor on the third floor, she had an inexplicable idea of wanting to escape, but her hand was tightly held by Mrs. Shi.

As the door was opened by Uncle Wu, her feeling became stronger, so strong that when she saw the man on the hospital bed, she was only afraid, the light in the room was very dim, and the windows were covered by thick curtains, "This is my son, when the time comes, you will take care of him every step in the future, and I will take care of all the children in your orphanage." ”

"I've heard that they are quite pitiful, there are very few people who can study in high school like you, but our family can sponsor them to go to college or study abroad. "If Mrs. Shi before was kind, then Mrs. Shi in front of her only had transactions in her eyes.

"You just have to stay here until you're twenty-four, and we'll give you a good compensatory when you leave. ”

Eight years.

"Good. Hibiscus agreed very decisively, and what came to mind was what the dean's mother had said to her.

The Shi family is on the rich side of Wutong City, and they have monstrous skills, so you must grasp the hibiscus.

She grew up in an orphanage and was terrified.

Mrs. Shi raised her eyebrows, but she didn't expect this sixteen-year-old girl to agree so quickly, "Okay, then I'll ask Aunt Wu to pack your luggage later." ”

Hibiscus nodded, her pupils adjusted to the dimness, and her eyes fell on the picture frame on the bedside table, the man was handsome, the woman was beautiful, but the man was a little cold and impatient compared to the woman's smile.

The man in the photo is Shi Nian, but what about this woman?

Later, she learned that it was An Jin, an Jin she had imitated for eight years, and an Jin who called out when she dreamed back at midnight.

"Da-"

"Da-"

"Uhh

A sudden rain pulled the hibiscus back to reality, she looked left and right and finally avoided the rain along the eaves, her clothes were already wet, she raised her hand to look at the time on her wrist, and hurriedly rushed into the rain, she sat down until half past five.

He should have been on his way back.

Hibiscus ran all the way to the car, her clothes began to drip water, she casually took a few tissues and wiped them a few times and began to drive back.

The distance from the funeral home to the villa is already far away, and there is also a traffic jam in Wutong City as soon as it rains.

Hibiscus: She watched the time change by second, and the more anxious she became.

When she returned to the villa, it was already seven o'clock, the lights were on outside the courtyard and in the house, and Uncle Wu came to open the door for her with an umbrella, "Girl, why did you come back so late, did you eat?"

"Did he come back?"

"The young master came back very early today, and he will go back to the room as soon as he comes back. ”

Hibiscus looked through the dripping rain to the window on the third floor, and she should have slept without the light.

"Girl, I'll ask the old woman to cook a bowl of noodles for you. The two of them walked into the house with umbrellas.

"Okay, thank you Uncle Wu, I'll go upstairs to take a shower first, it's a little cold in the rain. Hibiscus breathed a sigh of relief.

Hibiscus she didn't know when she started to be so scared of Shi Nian, she wasn't like this at first, at least she wasn't afraid when she met her at the age of sixteen, everyone else called him young master, but she boldly called his name, he didn't get angry, and would respond to her with a soft "um" every time.

"Time-"

"Hmm. At that time, he sat on the bed and read a book, and turned his head to look at the person sitting in front of the window in annoyance pinching the palette in distress, "It's not big or small." ”

"At that time, I was really not suitable for painting, and I couldn't even understand the basic warm and cool colors. ”

This time, when he looked down at the book and didn't look at her, she pouted, and the next second he raised his hand and patted the empty seat next to him and motioned for her to sit down.

Hibiscus stepped on the soft carpet and looked up, he was leaning against the wall of the hallway, his white shirt loosely tied into his trousers, his collar unbuttoned in two, and she couldn't see his face through the smoke only the reddened fire.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time. He was the first to speak.

"I went to the hospital today......" On the way back, I encountered another traffic jam.

"Fang Cheng told me. He preemptively interrupted her explanation.

"Oh, I heard that you came back early today, you shouldn't have eaten yet, Aunt Wu is cooking noodles, let's go down and eat some later?" responded to her with cold silence and his sparse smoking action, "Then I'll go back to the room first." ”

Hibiscus walked to the corridor on the left, but her waist tightened, and he hugged her from behind, "My mother brought a girl over today, the daughter of the Mu Group, younger than you, just graduated from college." ”

He was explaining to her.

"That's good, you're right. Hibiscus said with the corners of her mouth tugging, knowing that he couldn't see at all.

"I also heard that you have already taken my mother's money?"

"Well, 10 million, I should be able to live well in the second half of my life, and I still have a stable job, although it is unpopular but the future is ...... Not. Hibiscus's eyes widened, she was pressed against the wall, the bitterness of tobacco spreading in her mouth.

He let go of her, his hands still on her shoulders, "You just want to leave me so much? Don't you want Mrs. Shi's place? Don't you want to fight for it?"

At that time, he asked three questions in a row, but she didn't know how to answer.

"I want the 10 million more than Mrs. Shi's position, after all, the sixteen-year-old hibiscus stayed with you because of money, Shi Nian, so the twenty-four-year-old hibiscus will still choose money and leave you. Hibiscus stared at his increasingly thick eyes, but her hands were nervously clenched into fists.

"Bang-" and his fist grazed her face and landed sideways against the wall behind her, a "Get out" from his mouth weakly spitting out a "Get out." Word.

Hibiscus, she closed her eyes and was a little frightened.

"Get out!" he roared, "I told you to get out of here, and never appear in front of me from now on." ”

He withdrew his fist at the time, "You got your wish." ”

Hibiscus looked at his back and his trembling hands for some reason her chest suddenly hurt, her body slid down the wall, and the sound of smashing things came from the room at that time, she didn't know why she regretted what she had just said, she suddenly didn't want to leave.

But she knew that she had to seize this opportunity, Mu Hibiscus got up and ran downstairs, ignoring what Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu said, she drove down the mountain, and there was only one thought in her eyes to get out of here.

Leave the year.
