Ruan Wan was surprised when she knew that Du Jinlai was looking for her.

During the period after the quarrel, she has been "cold" to him, and has refused his invitation to meet several times one after another. First, it was indeed because she hadn't been able to fully forgive his previous words and deeds, and secondly, because she was very busy - the exams at the end of the semester and Qi Xuan's affairs made her whole person anxious, and she really didn't have the strength to face other bad things.

Her character is very clear to her. He doesn't like to quarrel, and prefers to deal with problems in a relatively rational way. So every time there is a small conflict between them, he will draw a relative "buffer period".

She used to think it was good, because it hurt her feelings to quarrel, but now she thinks it's ...... It's not as good as it seems.

"Miss Ruan?" the voice on the other end of the phone interrupted Ruan Wan's musings.

"Have someone bring him here. ”

"Okay. ”

A few minutes later.

The office door was pulled open.

The figure, which seemed familiar to her, walked through the door.

The secretary outside the door thoughtfully closed the door, leaving a space for the two of them to not be disturbed for a long time.

"Awan. Du Jinnian looked at Ruan Wan behind the desk and shouted almost with a sigh.

It's just that he hasn't seen him for a few days, but he suddenly has a feeling of "like a world away".

She was so cold, it really made him sad.

Ruan Wan didn't stand up and fly over like before. One is that she doesn't want to, and the other is that she can't—her feet aren't quite healed yet. So she just sat there and asked with a cold expression, "Why did you come all of a sudden?"

“…… I'll come and see you. ”

"Yes. ”

After just a few words of dialogue, there was silence.

Ruan Wan didn't want to say something, but she didn't want to be the first to speak...... Or maybe she didn't want to bow her head first this time anyway. Admittedly, it may be pointless for couples to fight over each other. However, after knowing Zhuang Luo's "true face", she felt that she must let him learn a lesson this time. Some are rabbits, some are snakes. She didn't mind if he went to the rescue, but for the latter, he had to stay away, and there was no room for negotiation.

She refused to speak first, and the person who spoke was naturally Du Jinnian.

"You've been busy these days, haven't you?"

"Hmm. Ruan Wan nodded, "Qi Xuan's matter is quite troublesome, and if it is not handled well, it is easy to cause a chain reaction." ”

Between the questions and answers, the atmosphere that had been frozen to the extreme eased slightly.

Du Jinnian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward slowly, and said with a smile: "Your relationship with Qi Xuan is really good. ”

"He's my friend. Ruan Wan replied, "It is an important 'property' of the company, and of course I can't watch him being smeared." ”

"Definitely. Du Jinnian nodded in agreement, "This matter is indeed not his responsibility." ”

Du Jinnian just said it casually, but Ruan Wan felt harsh.

"Responsibility?"

She thought the word was ironic.

"What is the responsibility?" she asked rhetorically, "The responsibility is not Qi Xuan, but whom?"

Du Jinnian, who originally had a smile on his face, paused, he looked at Ruan Wan, the ease on his face turned into bitter embarrassment, and he said, "Ah Wan, I came here today and don't want to have any quarrel with you. So, can you stop being so aggressive?"

Ruan Wan's hand under the table slowly squeezed, she took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I won't force you." However, the question I just asked you is also really wanting to know the answer. She continued, "Do you think anyone is responsible for the 'Zhuang Luo suicide'?"

Du Jinnian smiled bitterly: "Awan, that's a human life." ”

"Heh......" Ruan Wan chuckled, "yes, that's a human life." So, is the culprit who forced her to die the one who cut off her 'hope'?"

"I never thought like that!" Du Jinnian explained, "not for a second. I know very well that you are a kind person and will never deliberately push anyone to a dead end. ”

She said sincerely, but Ruan Wan grasped the point in her words-

"So, this is my 'unintentional mistake'?"

"Awan ......"

"If," Ruan Wan's hands clenched into fists under the table, trying to suppress the urge to get angry, she said relatively calmly, "If I say that her suicide is fake, will you believe me?"

Du Jinnian looked at her in surprise: "Fake?"

"Are you familiar with her?Why did she make the last call to you before she committed suicide?What did she ask of you after the suicide?" Ruan Wan asked several questions one after another, "Did you not think of these, or did you not want to think about them?"

Du Jinnian was stunned on the spot.

"I don't believe you didn't think of it. Ruan Wan answered her own question, "I understand you." That's why I felt even more chilling, "So, what are you not willing to think about?" Is Zhuang Luo so important to you?"

"Awan, things are not what you think. Du Jinnian stepped forward quickly, pressed Ruan Wan's shoulders with both hands, and said very firmly, "I love you." ”

Ruan Wan chuckled: "I know." She knew that the person Jin Nian loved was herself, "However, because of a Zhuang Luo who doesn't love you and doesn't even have much to do with you, you said to me, 'I'm very disappointed in you'." ”

She can not care about Zhuang Luo's cunzài, or she can not care about him throwing himself on the street when his life is at stake, and she can even not mind all the quarrels that they had before, but she cares about this sentence.

Non-usual, in, in, care!

How could he accuse her for the sake of another woman?

When he keeps saying love.

"Yes, you love me. She raised her eyes to look directly into Du Jinnian's eyes, lifted the intact hand, and ripped his hand off her shoulder, "But I think - you care about her." Why on earth is that?"

She needed a reason!

Du Jinnian shook his head: "Awan, I didn't." ”

"You have. ”

"I ......" Du Jinnian's words were suffocated.

"There's nothing to say, huh?" Ruan Wan chuckled again, and there was a desolation in this laughter that was difficult to hide, "Du Jinnian, do you dare to say that you just came to see me today purely for reconciliation?"

She's not stupid.

There are some things that she doesn't want to think about, just because she can't think about it.

"Do you dare to say that?"

She asked him one by one—

"Did she ask you for anything?"

"For example, you want to seize the opportunity to stand up and defend yourself?"

"For example, if you have a chance, you won't do such a thing?"

"For example, let you ask me?"

……

After reading the information that Zhuang Luo has tossed over the years, she can be said to know her behavior pattern well.

This is not unexpected, however......

She really didn't expect it.

He was so stupidly fooled.

But he is clearly not a stupid person, so she can only think that he is willingly fooled.

This, how terrible.

What's even more terrifying is that his lips trembled during her questioning, and he didn't say half a word, but staggered back a step.

He looked at her and whispered with a heartbreaking gaze, "Awan, I never wanted to force you. ”

He didn't lie, he really didn't think about using Qi Xuan's matter to persecute her, he wanted to directly persuade Zhuang Luo to stop being obsessed with this matter.

"Maybe. Ruan Wan leaned back in her chair, the series of questions just now seemed to consume all her strength, and she said tiredly, "But I still came, with a purpose that was not pure." ”

“……”

"Du Jinnian," she turned her head sideways, looked out at the outside world through the floor-to-ceiling window, and repeated what she had said a few days ago.

"I'm disappointed in you. ”

Whether it was his distrust of her or his maintenance of Zhuang Luo, this qiē disappointed her.

"You actually know what kind of person Zhuang Luo is, don't you?" she asked in a low voice.

"I ......"

Ruan Wan raised her hand to open the drawer, took out a Wen Jiàn clip from it, and turned it upside down. A photo "flowed" out of the text folder in an instant and fell to the ground.

a.

Two.

……

Ruan Wan emptied all the text folders in the drawer one after another.

She looked down at the unsightly photos that were spread all over her feet, and while she was disgusted, a certain sense of pleasure actually surged in her heart.

Intellectually, she spit on herself who was rejoicing about it;

Emotionally, but irrepressible.

In the scramble, emotion prevailed, and it drove her to look up and see his face.

- Ah, sure enough, it's just as wonderful as she thought.

While realizing this, she was both happy and painful, and her whole person seemed to be torn in half.

Half laughing, half crying.

She thought that her expression might have become hideous at the moment, but, who cares?

"Look, this is the truth hidden under Zhuang Luo's weak exterior. Ruan Wan, who tore open this layer of "fig leaf", sneered, "How do you feel? Or did you even expect this?"

Du Jinnian raised his head suddenly, as if he was burned by the flames, and as if he had seen some poisonous snake and beast, he looked at Ruan Wan, his voice trembled and asked fiercely: "Ah Wan, why are you collecting this?"

"Just in case. Ruan Wan replied without a hint of concealment, "You can go back and sue her, if she dares to stand up and make trouble for Qi Xuan, I will completely destroy her, the kind that has no scum left." ”

In the next second, the hand she had gathered into a fist under the table was grabbed by Du Jinnian.

He grabbed her wrist tightly, and his dark eyes, which had always been indifferent, were full of turbulent waves: "Awan, promise me, don't use them!"

Ruan Wan looked back at him and smiled—what kind of concentration would make this person ignore the fact that "the hand he held was already injured and was wrapped in bandages", and would make this person lose his temper like this.

She shook her head slowly, "No." As long as she dares to take the lead, I dare to use it. ”

"Promise me!!"

"Nope. ”

"You promise me !!"

"No!" Ruan Wan sneered and said, "Don't you think I forced her to death?" I'll do what you want now, and force her to death with these things—"

"Smack!"

The voices of the two came to an abrupt end with this crisp sound.

Ruan Wan, who was forced to turn her head, was dyed with a thick look of disbelief and stunned in her eyes that were temporarily out of focus because of shock.

He......

How could it be......
