Chapter 33: Compromise
"What girl, what are you talking about?"
"Oh, hurry up and open Weibo, the news just broke out today, Twilight and a girl were photographed in our community suspected of having a rumored girlfriend, take a look. Akiko on the other end of the phone, her impatient voice was hoarse. After Xiaoxiao hung up the phone, she decisively opened Weibo, and just clicked on the search, a line of words "He Dudong's rumored girlfriend is suspected of being exposed" immediately appeared, and there was a hot word with a yellow frame and a white background behind the title.
Xiaoxiao hurriedly clicked on the hot news with her red hot fingers, and the first thing that caught her eye was two photos that were not very clear, one photo was He Dudong accompanying a girl wearing a baseball out of the hotel, and the other was He Dudong holding the girl wearing a baseball cap in a small area, but these two photos have one thing in common, that is, He Dudong's face is easy to identify, but the girl's appearance is blurry.
"Xiaoxiao, how are you doing? Xiaoxiao heard Yulin's voice behind her and decisively pressed the phone into a black screen, "It's good, thank you so much for your help." After finishing speaking, Xiaoxiao blinked meaningfully, and Yulin put his hand on Xiaoxiao's shoulder boldly, "What is this between sisters." As soon as Yulin's voice fell, he took out his mobile phone and opened Weibo, "Xiaoxiao, hurry up and take a look at this hot spot, now all the people in the company are paying attention to this matter." ”
Xiaoxiao didn't need to guess to know what the hot news Yulin was talking about, Xiaoxiao took the mobile phone and pretended to look at it seriously, and said angrily after reading it: "Really, these paparazzi are really idle, celebrities are also people, people can't have a little private life, follow the back of people's butts all day long to shoot this and that, like voyeurism." ”
"Actually, I'm not interested in this kind of news, I never like to gossip about anyone, whether it's an ordinary person or a celebrity, everyone has the right to their own private life. Yu Lin rolled his eyes and put away his phone, Xiaoxiao looked at Yu Lin with a disdainful look, bit her lip and said, "That's right, but I feel that this kind of news must be very popular among the young girls in our company." ”
"Who made our company now involved in the entertainment industry, Rise Group has a wide network of contacts, many of the new employees who came in after the layoffs have worked in well-known entertainment media companies before, no, the whole company is paying attention to this hot spot, just now when I came over, I saw a girl who was already writing public relations copy. ”
Yu Lin leaned against the wall with his elbows and said indifferently, "Xiaoxiao, do you know anything about this man named He Dudong, I only know that he seemed to be a writer before, and then he was discovered by the film and television company and began to participate in movies, sorry, I really haven't paid attention to the entertainment industry for a long time." ”
"I'm pretty much the same as you know...... Yulin, let's not talk about this for now, I'm hungry, let's go eat Japanese food. Xiaoxiao took Yu Lin's hand, "Okay, I know there is a particularly delicious Japanese restaurant nearby, so let's go and try it together." Yu Lin licked his lips, took Xiaoxiao's hand, and walked out of the company.
As soon as he sat down at the one-day restaurant near the company, Yu Lin couldn't wait to open the menu and order, "I've long wanted to eat this eel rice and matcha dorayaki, but no one has been with me." Xiaoxiao drank lemonade and looked at Yu Lin with golden eyes and said, "I invite you to this meal, in order to thank you for sending charcoal in the snow, but then again, where did you get those things." ”
Yu Lin raised his head and looked left and right, "You don't have to worry about this, Japanese food is not cheap, you can take it easy." Xiaoxiao smiled playfully at Yulin, then took out her mobile phone and opened Weibo nervously, she wanted to see the latest progress of the news, just opened the search bar, the mobile phone mailbox showed that she had received an email titled "Decideyourfate", Xiaoxiao hesitated for a while, and opened the email with a strange title.
As soon as the contents of the email were presented in front of Xiaoxiao's eyes, she felt goosebumps rise all over her body, and the blood on her face seemed to pierce her pores like sharp needles, and she breathed hard.
There are three photos in the email, these three photos clearly show a pair of men and women with ambiguous behavior, the faces of the boys and girls in the photos are taken clearly, so clear that anyone who knows them (them) can recognize them at a glance, there is a paragraph below the three photos:
If you don't want these three photos to appear on the Internet, come to room 322 of the Xiangshan Hotel at 7 o'clock in the evening to find me.
Don't think about it, this meal Xiaoxiao is frightened, Yulin also found out, since she finished ordering, Xiaoxiao's eyes are obviously full of anxiety, when eating sushi, Xiaoxiao also eats a chew for a long time, and her eyes are also blank in the process of chewing, after eating a plate of tuna sushi, Yulin couldn't help but ask: "Xiaoxiao, are you uncomfortable, I feel that you are a little in a trance." Xiaoxiao coughed and said, "Yulin, I seem to have come there." ”
Yu Lin put down his chopsticks, "Did you just come, it was okay just now, I'll give you some brown sugar water." After saying that, Yu Lin hurriedly went to find the waiter, Xiaoxiao looked at Yu Lin's hurried back, and really regretted it, but she really couldn't find any suitable reason except for this.
When Yulin came back and pushed the steaming brown sugar water in front of Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao said, "Yulin, I won't work overtime tonight." Yulin frowned: "Probably not, today is just Monday, and overtime will start tomorrow, and if you really work overtime, you will ask your supervisor for leave, anyway, you are not feeling well, and you just have a reason to ask for leave."
As Yu Lin said, all departments did not receive a notice of overtime until they were about to get off work, and the results of today's written test will be announced tomorrow morning, so many employees are looking for happiness after work, and Yu Lin also sang K with the people in their department.
Xiaoxiao took a taxi and went straight to the Xiangshan Hotel after separating from her colleagues at the door of the company, on the way, Xiaoxiao kept speculating about where the person she was going to see was sacred, what kind of entertainment could take those photos so elusively, before getting out of the car, Xiaoxiao did not forget to take out the black mask sent by Dusk Winter from her bag and put it on.
Under the guidance of the waiter, Xiaoxiao stood in front of the door of room 322, "It's okay, you can go, I will call you if necessary." Xiaoxiao deliberately took the waiter away before going in, she didn't want to have ears for this kind of thing. Watching the waiter walk away, Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, pushed open the door and walked in.
"Xiaoxiao, long time no see. The woman in the brown leather coat stood up with a smile on her face and took the initiative to stretch out her hand to Xiaoxiao, with a charming smile on her delicate face. Xiaoxiao paused, she exited the room and looked at the house number again, and when she confirmed that this room was 322, she took off her mask and walked into the room tremblingly.
"Why, it's you. Xiaoxiao sat down with the woman opposite, and she saw that the other party had already ordered the jade plate and placed it on the round table.
"Xiaoxiao, what kind of fate do you say we have, the last time we met was last month......" As she spoke, the woman took out a white box with Dior letters tied with a bow from under the table, and she pushed the box in front of Xiaoxiao, "This is to thank you for giving me a thank you gift in your busy schedule, please accept it." ”
"No, no, you're polite...... Xiaoxiao's throat twitched, and she pushed the white gift box back, "I was in a hurry last time, and I don't know what your name is." ”
"You call me Yutong, the rain of raindrops, the paulownia of Wutong. Yutong smiled softly.
Xiaoxiao couldn't connect the elegant and intellectual woman in front of her with the paparazzi who liked to take candid photos, she didn't even know how to start the topic, Yutong's rippling beautiful pupils made Xiaoxiao unable to dare to look directly, she cramped her hands under the table.
"Xiaoxiao, you shouldn't believe that I took those photos until now, and you don't believe that I posted them on the Internet and bought them on the hot search ......" Yutong crossed his hands and looked at Xiaoxiao with sharp eyes, "But I have to tell you,
Ididallthis!”
"Why, Yutong, the two of us have no grievances, and Twilight said that you are a very good friend of his, why ......" Xiaoxiao looked at Yutong's thin smile that vented her hatred, and faintly felt ashamed and cold.
"Xiaoxiao, can you tell me what you did and said after you two met last time. Yutong smiled evilly, and lifted the decanter full of red wine into his arms.
"The last time I saw him, I was also surprised, really, I thought he had to be followed by a bunch of bodyguards or something, he said let me get in the car, and I went up, and then we had a meal and he sent me home. As soon as Xiaoxiao's words fell, a glass of red wine appeared in front of her. "And then, did he tell you anything? Yutong held his right arm with his left hand, and held the base of the wine glass in his right hand, shaking slightly.
"He asked me if I needed help with my work and if I had any plans to travel in the near future. Xiaoxiao picked up the wine glass and drank all the wine in the glass, she was really a little thirsty, "That, Yutong, can you pour me another glass, thank you." Xiaoxiao stretched out her arm and handed the wine glass to Yutong. "Hahaha, Xiaoxiao, I finally know why Twilight likes you, you are really silly and cute. Yutong's smile trembled, and she had to give Xiaoxiao another glass of wine.
"What are you talking about, Yutong, Twilight likes me, don't make trouble, Twilight ...... him"
"Either why I would return to China, or why would I chase him to Shanghai, or why I would secretly photograph you two, don't you know!" Yutong suddenly shed her kind face, and she slammed the wine glass on the table with a fierce look, and the red wine in the cup poured on the white tablecloth, and it turned red.
Xiaoxiao was stunned in her chair, she looked at the angry Yutong opposite with frightened eyes, she really couldn't imagine that Yutong, who was still gentle and knowledgeable before, would suddenly get angry like a shrew. "Yutong, you love Twilight, don't you. Xiaoxiao asked tentatively, poking her head lightly.
"Do you know how he told me in Shanghai, he said, the moment I see you again, any old love seems to be a passing cloud, he said that he doesn't know why he is with you, there is a sweet and greasy sense of happiness......" Yutong drank all the wine in the cup, poured himself another glass, and drank it all, "But do you know, the first time I saw him in college, it was also that feeling, the kind of happiness that as long as he was by your side, he was down-to-earth." Xiaoxiao watched Yutong close her eyes and pour red wine one by one, and she didn't know how to resolve the current embarrassment.
"If I hadn't had that incident at home at that time, I would have married him and had children, and I came back from Australia, and I didn't want anything for him. Yutong, whose head and face were red, was already a little confused, she looked at the decanter with only empty bottles, and suddenly gave herself a slap, and this slap really jumped. "So, Xiaoxiao, please leave him, you may call me selfish, but love is like that. ”
"Yutong, you may be wrong for me, although I am a little bit with Twilight, but I have never fantasized about having anything to do with him, I don't dare to think about it. I don't know if it's because of shame or humility, Xiaoxiao lowered her head and looked at the dessert in front of her, she really wanted to take a bite, she was a little hungry.
"I don't care! I don't care what you have to do with Twilight, but from tomorrow onwards, you are not allowed to have any contact with him, you have to delete all his contact information, you have to refuse all his invitations......" Xiaoxiao understood the drunken and hazy Yutong at this time, and she understood the unreasonable stubbornness when a girl fell in love.
"Xiaoxiao, you shouldn't want those few clear photos to be exposed to the media, you should know that no company wants to continue to hire a female employee who has an affair with a male star. ”
Xiaoxiao raised her head suddenly when she heard this, and Yutong on the opposite side proudly leaned her neck and shook her mobile phone at Xiaoxiao, and her messy broken hair floated to Yutong's forehead, and she ignored it indifferently.
Xiaoxiao felt that her mind was in a mess, in her opinion, this was a very easy and simple shortcut, but for some reason, the sense of rebellion caused by excessive inferiority in her heart was occupying her consciousness step by step. Xiaoxiao held her head with both hands, furrowed her brows, her chin shrunk up, and her scalp trembled.
"Okay, I agree. Xiaoxiao replied simply, she looked at Yutong, who was satisfied and seemed to be a little disappointed, and continued: "Well, can I eat something?" ”
