CHAPTER XVII

After taking a shower, she put on Rong Cheng's clothes with a red face, and the collar and sleeves were all bigger, Gu Xinran looked in the mirror, she looked like a child stealing adult clothes, she had seen the little boy in the neighborhood stealing his father's leather shoes, it looked childish and ridiculous, but it would only happen when she was connived at, she didn't understand this feeling, but now that she thinks about it, it should be like this, right?

Gu Xinran secretly rejoiced in her heart, and was a little proud, being able to be so close to Rong Cheng was almost a luxury that she never dared to imagine.

Walking out of the bathroom, she saw the big black bed in the middle of the room, Gu Xinran was entangled for a moment, walked to the side of the bed and gently lifted the quilt, she couldn't figure out what Rong Cheng meant, looked at the bed, looked at the sofa again, hesitated, or covered the quilt back, ran to the sofa and lay down, anyway, this sofa is big enough, she is more than enough to lie on it.

looked at the clock hanging on the wall, it was almost twelve o'clock, maybe because of the tension all night, as soon as he relaxed at this time, he felt that his eyes couldn't be opened, Gu Xinran reminded himself in a daze that he couldn't sleep, and he had to wait until Rong Cheng came back, but unfortunately he couldn't fight the drowsiness after all, and he fell asleep after lying down for a while.

When Rong Cheng returned to the room, it was almost one o'clock in the morning, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Gu Xinran curled up on the sofa, lying with his face outward, his hands on his chest, and his clothes were worn on her as if they were hung up, revealing a snow-white neck and collarbone, and black hair was messily spread on the sofa.

Rong Cheng drank a little too much tonight, and when he saw Gu Xinran sleeping there, he walked up a little uncontrollably, squatted down and looked at Gu Xinran for a while, and couldn't help but reach out and touch her face.

Well, it feels very good, but soon he found that Gu Xinran didn't seem to be sleeping very well, frowning and whispering from time to time, Rong Cheng leaned closer to listen, and heard her small begging for mercy: "Don't hit me...... It hurts, Dad, please, don't hit me...... No, don't hit your mother ......."

Rong Cheng sighed silently, reached out to wipe her tears, picked her up and put her on the bed, stood at the head of the bed and looked at her for a while before turning around and going to the bathroom.

There are many people and things he comes into contact with, and many times his heart is like a pool of stagnant water, and few people or things can touch him.

In Qu Zhe's words, there is an eighty-year-old man living in his heart, who lives without interest and fun, saying that he has made so much money but is not even a woman.

Although Rong Cheng doesn't understand why he has to soak in women when he makes money, he doesn't bother with women, because he never lacks them, he can find them anytime and anywhere if he wants, and it's not something worth rare, so why bother so much?

Rong Cheng chose to return to China this time, which also surprised Qu Zhe very much, you must know that Li Jingshu died suddenly in country M, Rong Cheng was forced to take him back to the Rong family, or Qu Zhe took someone to get him out, and wasted a lot of effort, but he didn't expect the old man of the Rong family to go to country M, which made him change his mind and return to the Rong family.

Everyone thought that he was coming back to take the family property, and even Qu Zhe deliberately ran to tell him on the eve of his return to China that he could talk at any time if he needed help, but only Rong Cheng knew that he was not for the Rong family's family business at all.

He has worked hard in country M over the years, and the industry he earned is enough for him to squander for a lifetime, but he is low-key, does not like to be showy, and many things are done by assistants, so whether it is in country M or in China, few people know about him, and the reason why he chose to come back is to see what kind of charm this place he has been thinking about for a lifetime.

When Li Jingshu was still pregnant with him, he was sent to country M, when Rong Cheng was eight years old, he saw Rong Zhentian for the first time, his father, this man who seemed to be submissive, he will always remember that day Li Jingshu dressed him and himself like a well-dressed gift, and greeted Rong Zhentian's arrival with joy, Rong Zhentian seemed to be very happy to see him, hugged him all day, and gave him a lot of toys to play with him.

Rong Cheng has been a taciturn character since he was a child, and it was the first time he saw Rong Zhentian, so he naturally couldn't get close, but Li Jingshu didn't care, he stuffed Rong Zhentian into Rong Zhentian's body, and kept praising Rong Cheng's versatility, he could paint, play the piano, sing, dance, almost everything that a child could learn, Li Jingshu let him learn, and he was smart since he was a child, and he had a good look when he fiddled with these things.

Rong Zhentian was really happy, and praised Rong Cheng for being smart, so during Rong Zhentian's stay in country M for a week, Rong Cheng was forced to perform all these talents, so that during that time, Rong Cheng's most feared thing was dinner time, because that meant that he had to be like a pet, performing a show when the master was eating, adding fun to the directors.

This habit lasted until Rong Cheng was twelve years old.

Six years later, Li Jingshu died of a drug overdose in the villa, and he himself was brought back to China by Rong Zhentian, his personality at that time had become quite indifferent, and he was full of boredom with everything, as soon as he returned to the Rong family, he not only had to accept the strange eyes of the people around him, but also had to endure Lin Mei's cynicism every day, and Rong Zhentian was like a soft-footed shrimp, except for telling Lin Mei not to go too far, it was useless.

So Rong Cheng escaped, and on the third night of returning to Rong's house, he climbed down from the third floor of this villa with a sheet, but before he walked out of the door, he was invited back by the security guard, and Old Man Rong didn't scold him, but only asked him: "Are you still running?"

Rong Cheng only said one word, "Run." ”

Old Man Rong nodded, changed his room to the fourth floor, sealed all the windows from the outside, and didn't close him like this, he smashed open the floor-to-ceiling windows of the living room and ran out, but of course he was arrested.

This time, the old man didn't talk so well, and without saying a word, he threw him to the special forces military region, telling him that as long as he could pass the recruit training, he would let him go back to country M.

Rong Cheng entered the army in this way, and in just one month, he passed the recruit training, and that night, with the help of Qu Zhe, he directly got on the plane to country M.

When the old man received the news, it was already the morning of the next day, and since then, Rong Cheng has never had any contact with the Rong family.

Until a month ago, Mr. Rong went to country M to see him, begged him to return to China, and promised to give him shares in Rongjia Group, although Rong Cheng didn't care much, but he knew that Rong Zhentian's wife and son attached great importance to it, so he agreed to Mr. Rong's request and returned to China to help him manage Rongjia.

returned to the Rong family, and sure enough, he met what he had expected a long time ago, seeing Lin Mei's face these days, no matter how much ridicule he heard, it was worth it, although he didn't have any particularly heavy mother-son affection for Li Jingshu, but he was someone else's son after all, so he should be fighting for his useless mother.

The more unhappy Lin Mei's heart is, the happier he is, how Li Jingshu survived the decades in country M back then, even he can't fully understand that this woman who has a beautiful face has pinned her life's hopes on Rong Zhentian, and until she dies, she still wants to return to the Rong family openly, but she only ends up dying.

In fact, in retrospect, in the next few years, her spirit was already very abnormal, she often cried and laughed alone, repeated the roles she had played at home over and over again, repeated those lines every day, and forced Rong Cheng to play against her, when she was unhappy, she would drop things, pick up something and throw it on Rong Cheng, and after venting, she would hug him and cry, and when she was normal, she would become very gentle and considerate, as if she wanted to take out her heart and give it to Rong Cheng.

It was in those years that Rong Cheng once became afraid of women, and when he saw those beautifully dressed girls, he always felt that they didn't know when they would pick up scissors and stab him with hideous faces, so although there was no shortage of women to pursue since he was a child, Rong Cheng was always reluctant to have too much contact with women, until a few years after Li Jingshu's death, he became stronger, and the situation was a little better.

It's just that what Rong Cheng didn't expect was that after returning to China, he would meet Gu Xinran, this woman appeared in this place that didn't belong to her at all, as if she had taken the wrong script and gone to the wrong set.

Since he first met Gu Xinran, she has always looked like she was being bullied miserably, and she didn't know how she lived before.

Rong Cheng didn't think he was a kind person, but he couldn't help but reach out to help her, probably because Gu Xinran looked too harmless, as if anyone could hurt her, and she had no way but to hold herself tightly and prevent them from hurting the vital place.

Rong Cheng lay on the bed, looked at Gu Xinran, who was unconsciously leaning into his arms, and saw that she was grabbing her clothes as if she had grasped a life-saving straw, and slowly calmed down and stopped making a crying sound, which was a sigh of relief.

Gu Xinran was different from the women he had met before, so he didn't know how to treat her properly, but one thing he knew very well was that everything had to be done in moderation, he could feel that she was pitiful and occasionally helped her, but he must not make her feel that she could rely on herself to be blessed.

He has no intention of being a savior, and he doesn't want to spend too much effort on Gu Xinran, today should be an exception, after all, he has also seen that Gu Xinran wants to work hard to integrate into this environment, and it is not bad to be able to do this for the first time on such an occasion.

The next morning, Gu Xinran woke up first, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw a white patch in front of her, she was still a little confused, she couldn't react to where she was, and thought it was on the sofa in Rong Ze's room, she reached out and touched it, she felt warm and elastic, and she was still thinking about what it was, so she heard Rong Cheng's voice overhead: "What are you doing?"
