The carpet in the hotel corridor was sound-absorbing, and Zhou Xin's footsteps could not be heard, and when Zhou Xin chased him out again, he was already standing there waiting for the elevator.

"The meeting is three days, and tomorrow is the second day, are you in a hurry to go back when you suddenly want to leave?"

Zhou Wei pressed the floor, staring at the numbers on the display.

Zhou Xin was still unwilling in the end.

"Brother, they haven't been together for a day or two, I didn't say it before, I've met a few times since you got married, and I saw them eating together a while ago, just in the food street, eating Japanese food, did she mention it to you when she went back?"

“… She has always been good at lying, and her acting skills are good, and that face is really good at coaxing people, but that doesn't mean that she is really as clean as her face!"

"I actually knew about her and Chen Haodong for a long time, and I believe you also know it, you just don't want to admit it all the time, but now that the photos are out, what are you still looking forward to?"

"Brother, how do you have to be sober, do you really have to be caught in bed to believe it?"

"That's enough!" Zhou Wei finally spoke, and his voice was raised.

Zhou Xin was silenced by the yelling.

He turned slightly, "Whatever the relationship between them, I need to hear her say it herself!"

Zhou Xin paused and asked rhetorically, "Then did she tell you?"

Zhou Wei's eyes froze.

Zhou Xin: "No, right? Things are like this, the photos are known to everyone, you are now a joke in the eyes of others, but if there is still a little way, why do you want to run here to hide during the New Year!"

Zhou Wei: "You think too much. ”

Zhou Xin: "I also hope that I think too much, but brother, you have always been resolute in doing things, when did you hide like this to escape? What does escape mean, it means that you have no bottom in your heart, but you don't want to face it, but be sober, if they are really innocent, why can't she give you an explanation until now?"

Zhou Xin chattered endlessly, vowing to wake up the obsessed Zhou Xin.

Zhou Wei gritted his teeth: "I'll shut you up!"

Just when the elevator came up, he took his suitcase and stepped in, but Zhou Xin pressed the button to prevent the door from closing.

"It's easy to shut me up, but can you shut everyone's mouths?"

“…… After all, you just don't want to admit that your wife is with other men, but brother, everyone is an adult, can you deceive yourself for the rest of your life?"

Zhou Xin watched the elevator door slowly close, and the face inside was so cold that it seemed to be eating people.

Until the last gap disappeared, the elevator went down, Zhou Xin's voice finally disappeared in the light, Zhou Xin's straight back leaned back, "clang", his shoulder hit the metal wall of the elevator, and he saw himself in the mirror with an embarrassed face.

With fear in his heart, he was not confident, and he admitted that he had chosen the most cowardly solution.

For a moment, no, or more than a moment, he felt that Zhou Xin's words were not unreasonable.

……

At midnight, in the early hours of the morning, an old-fashioned color TV was playing the Spring Festival Gala, and the whole country was celebrating, but Chang An was alone in the hotel bathroom and vomited dimly, and after vomiting, he moved to the room with the wall and fell on the bed.

“…… 5,4,3,2,1, Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

The countdown to the Spring Festival Gala, the sound of fireworks blooming outside the window was full of bangs, and Shenyang City seemed to be ignited in an instant.

Chang An held his eyelids and looked at the ceiling, and the wind was whirring with heating.

A new year has begun, but she doesn't know what the road ahead will be.

Soon, the mobile phone next to the pillow began to tick and drip, and WeChat poured in, Chang Jiahui, Luo Xiaoyu, Tao Bixia, colleagues from the previous studio and the current unit, the content is similar, all New Year's blessing text messages.

Chang An slid down one by one, but his fingers stayed on a certain avatar, opened, and the chat history was only until yesterday - "I have seen all those photos on the Internet, when will you come back, I will explain to you." ”

Chang An stared at that line of words for a long time and couldn't come back to his senses, and the time and date on it showed that it was sent yesterday, and it had only been a few dozen hours, why did she seem to have experienced a century?

The eye sockets began to resurge, and Chang An felt that he couldn't cry, after all, it was the New Year, and it would be unlucky to cry.

She pressed her fingers on her eyes for a while, holding back her tears, and the mobile phone rang suddenly at this time, the WeChat interface jumped, and Chang An slipped over in a trance.

Connected.

Chang An was stunned for a moment, and then he thought of going to see the name on the screen - "Chen Haodong".

This is the new note name she left for him in the address book after changing his mobile phone, and the previous one was "brother".

"Hey..."Chang An said with difficulty.

I probably didn't expect her to answer the phone suddenly, after all, she has made countless calls since yesterday, but Chang An either hung up or didn't answer.

It took two seconds to hear Chen Haodong speak: "Hey, it's me!" His voice was a little hoarse, and it seemed to be a little difficult to speak.

Chang An said "um", "Is there something wrong with me?" She tried her best to make her tone sound as good as usual.

There were a few more seconds of silence.

Chang An was also physically and mentally exhausted, "If it's okay, I'll hang up." ”

"Wait!"

“……”

"I have checked those photos on the Internet, it was deliberately taken secretly, and the email inside Rongbang was also sent by buyout, the sender is Yao Kai, that is, Yang Jing's boyfriend, he works in the finance department of Rongbang, and he was almost sued by the company for embezzlement of public funds, and was asked for compensation, and was blacklisted in the talent pool, probably unwilling, so he took the opportunity to retaliate. ”

Chen Haodong explained the whole thing to Chang An, but he didn't know that Chang An actually knew, at least half of it, but when he heard that Yao Kai sent the email, his heart still trembled.

People's hearts are difficult to distinguish, she feels that she treats people with sincerity, but what she often gains is not the corresponding result, but Chang An, you have reached this age, why can't you learn to be smart.

So what she was left with after a short fluctuation was complete despair, feeling like a fool, like an idiot, and taking it all by herself.

Chen Haodong couldn't see the expression on Chang An's face, thinking that she just couldn't digest this matter for the time being.

“… But you don't have to think too much, Yao Kai has already admitted it now, and I also asked him to write a guarantee, and he wrote clearly on the guarantee of all the things that were bought and smeared, including the source of those photos, if he doesn't believe it or embarrass you, I can also take Yao Kai over to explain to him in person, Chang An, Chang An, are you still listening?"

Chang An was about to bite off a piece of meat on the back of his hand, but he couldn't stop rolling down after holding back his tears for a long time.

How can I stop the pain in my heart that feels like I'm going to be torn?

"Brother..."

Chen Haodong was shaken violently, and the shout was like a knife stabbing him in the heart.

"Chang'an?"

"Chang'an, you're crying, aren't you?"

"Speak, where are you now, he doesn't believe you, does he?"

After a few consecutive roars, all of Chen Haodong's rhythms were disrupted.

"Don't cry first, I'll call him, I'll go to him, I'll explain to him in person!"

As soon as Chang An heard that Chen Haodong was going to find Zhou Yuan, Li Mark suppressed his crying.

"Brother, don't... Don't contact him..."

At this time, if he came forward, it would only make things even more out of control, not to mention that Chang An's heart was already in a mess now, but only one thing was still clear - this was a matter between her and Zhou Wei.

raised his hand to wipe his tears, and his slightly collapsed emotions finally relented.

"I'm in Shenyang now, I have some business, wait for me to go back, and I'll talk to him in person when I go back. ”

Chen Haodong listened to her crying gradually stop, suppressing the fire in his heart.

"Good. After a pause, he asked, "Then what else can I do?"

"We don't need anything, brother, we..."

"I see, you don't have to say any more!" he added at the end, "Happy New Year, good night!"

Chang An covered his eyes with his hand, which began to sore again.

"Happy New Year. ”

The phone hung up first, and it was busy.

When he was seventeen years old, he only knew how to fight fires with moths.

In his early twenties, he thought that "love" could be invincible in the world.

Now at the beginning of the new year, twenty-five years old, it is too early to be calm and restrained.

Chang An lay down his huddled body and restarted checking the flight information for the next day.

It began to snow in Shenyang in the second half of the night.

The next day was the first day of the Lunar New Year, Chang An opened the curtains and it was already snowy outside, she packed her things, wrapped herself tightly and went downstairs to check out.

The hotel where I stayed did not provide breakfast, and on such days there was not even a breakfast stall outside, so I walked a long way in the snow to find a convenience store.

There were still a few sandwiches left on the shelves, and Chang An, who looked cold, didn't want to eat them.

Walking to the counter, there was hot oden next to the cash register, Chang An wanted to eat something hot, and picked a few skewers at random.

The cashier clerk was an elderly middle-aged aunt.

"It's cold outside, so I'll put some soup in for you. ”

The disposable plastic paper cup was filled with two strings of sweet and spicy and handed to Chang An, Chang An took it, it was very hot, but when he smelled the meat, his mouth began to be fishy, and a sour smell came from the stomach to the top, and it came too fast to stop.

"I'm sorry, I..."

Chang An put down the paper cup and covered her mouth and rushed out, it was freezing outside, she stood next to the green belt in front of the convenience store and vomited, but unfortunately there was really nothing in her stomach, and all she spit out was sour water.

A few minutes later, she returned to the store.

The aunt at the cash register was very enthusiastic and poured her some hot water with a paper cup.

Chang An took it and took a sip.

"Thank you!"

"Thank you, thank you, but you're throwing up a little bit. ”

"Maybe I have a cold stomach, is there a pharmacy nearby?"

"Pharmacy..."The middle-aged aunt thought for a moment, "There is one across the street, but I don't think you have a stomach problem, no one can freeze to vomit, is it eating something bad?"

Chang An thought about it, he did suffer a little from eating out in the past two days, but the problem of gagging didn't start yesterday, and it seems that he will come from time to time recently.

"Thanks, I'll go to the pharmacy across the street. ”

All the way back, it was a train and a plane upside down, and Chang An didn't want to vomit on the road again.

She wanted to buy some medicine to press first, but she crossed the road with her suitcase, and the snow on the lane had been swept away, and the thin layer was also fresh snow, and a pair of shallow footprints could be seen when she stepped on it.

Suddenly, without warning, Chang An felt as if he had been electrified.

Will... Could it be ......?

She couldn't believe it, she didn't even dare to finish the question in her heart, but her mind had begun to tremble irrepressibly.
