54 Chapter 54
Makino looked at the check on the table silently, three million is an astronomical amount for her, almost all of her salary is used for her family, and almost all of her savings plus Han Shuang's in the past three years have been used for her recovery, and it is not an exaggeration to describe their lives as poor. Three millionIf Han Shuang could have had so much money at the beginning, she would not have had difficulty even standing up in the end.
"Frost, we don't... Makino swallowed her saliva, and to be honest, she was moved. With the three million, she and Han Shuang no longer have to live in the old house that is about to be demolished, and she may be able to buy another car, so that Han Shuang will not have to be trapped at home, and she can take her outside to see on the weekend, without enduring the sympathetic or curious eyes of strangers. Maybe then Han Shuang's autistic personality will slowly get better, and the more Makino looks forward to it, the more he wants to take this money.
Han Shuang, who was sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, turned pale, she pursed the trembling corners of her lips because of Muye's muttered whisper, tears quietly blurred her black pupils, there was no luster in that eye for a long time, when did they have to be helped by others, when did they become so humble, they needed to get the pity of others, looking up at the brightly lit street scene outside, she didn't want to return to the crowd for a moment, but it was just a distant luxury for her.
Han Shuang grabbed the handle of the wheelchair with her right hand, and it took her strength to remove one of her feet out of the wheelchair's footrest, Makino saw Han Shuang remember, she hurried up to help her, but was stopped by Han Shuang. Without Makino's help, the muscular atrophied legs trembled on the ground, and she had to endure the pain if she wanted to take a step, Han Shuang gritted her teeth and took two steps forward, the sharp pain in the joints tortured her fragile will, and finally she couldn't bear it and fell to her knees, but two years of rehabilitation did not bring her any fundamental changes, and the difficulty of sweating caused by deep burns made it difficult for her to support a large amount of rehabilitation training, and the natural effect was minimal.
The scars on her legs were completely exposed because of the fall, just like her face, ugly and hideous, her right hand holding the soft carpet slowly tightened, her shoulders couldn't stop shaking, Makino saw that Han Shuang had fallen and pounced, she grabbed Han Shuang's shoulders, frowned, and the corners of her mouth curled in distress. She silently pressed Han Shuang, who was hanging her head, on her shoulder, hugged poor Han Shuang, and let her tears burn her neck. After a long time, Han Shuang said in a calm voice, "Take it, maybe we can help" The incomparable sadness went up Han Shuang's thin back, shattering her dignity.
Makino trembled his voice and barely squeezed out a word "good"
"You are not allowed to cry, only I can cry" Han Shuang tried to ease the atmosphere, she said words with pride like before, she touched Makino's cheek to comfort her, Makino bit her lip desperately and wrapped the tears swirling in her eyes and nodded.
Xue Jiyue sat in the tea room of the Meilin Art Museum, and her mobile phone was placed on the table by her, and it was not until the beautiful singing sound sounded that she woke up in a daze.
Looking at the unfamiliar number jumping on it, Xue Jiyue's sixth sense told her that it was the person she was waiting for called. "Hello?"
"We accepted your commission," Makino's voice was low and hoarse.
Xue Jiyue's mood changed a lot when she heard the good news. "What I said will also be fulfilled, the three million can be used whether you agree or not, and in another month, a burn specialist will come to your house, don't block him out."
Xue Jiyue, who deducted the phone, poured out the tea leaves that had been cold in the teacup and got up. Next to the tea room is the studio, the heir of Sanding Pharmaceutical's largest stake is painting in it, Xue Jiyue leaned on the door frame and admired his paintings, she had to thank this man from the bottom of her heart, he didn't mind whether he loved him or not, maybe in his heart he only loved those paintings. In order to be able to concentrate on painting, he personally handed over all the company matters to Xue Jiyue to deal with, he didn't seem to be worried that Xue Jiyue would take away all his property, this trust made Xue Jiyue not betray him no matter what, it is because of this special relationship that their marriage can last for more than ten years, and even give birth to an heir for the family.
"Today is in a good state, the painting is very good" Xue Jiyue couldn't help but cheer for him, the bright light and dark tones on the canvas are intertwined, outlining a woman with a plump body, she is holding a peach tree, the breeze lifts her skirt and the brim of her hat, she stares at the mountains in the distance, even if she can't see her face, Xue Jiyue can feel the longing and expectation from the canvas.
"There is still some time before it is finished, this is one of the favorite photos I took in the mountains this time" His face was radiant when he spoke, Xue Jiyue remembered that the first time she met Zhang Hengzhi was at the dance held by her ex-husband, he was the master of the family after the year, but he exuded a melancholy and sad atmosphere, that is the person Xue Jiyue dreamed of finding, she divorced her ex-husband, and announced the news of her marriage with Zhang Hengzhi after only talking in secret for March. No one knows if they really fell in love, Xue Jiyue's reputation outside is not good, and most people accuse her of being watery Yanghua. However, it is such a woman who uses her powerful means and scheming to merge or acquire small companies, and finally becomes an admirable existence. But she is the only one who knows what kind of thing she has spent almost half her life and experience doing, the person she loves is difficult to disclose, and the things she hides in her heart will never be erased.
"Can I give this painting as a gift?" Xue Jiyue had a consultative tone, she had already regarded Zhang Hengzhi as her own brother in her heart.
"For those two pretty girls? Of course you can" Zhang Hengzhi's acumen is something that Xue Jiyue has to admire, he can always smell the details.
"Then I thank you for them, with your paintings, their shop will get more awards"
"No, I said, you can do whatever you like, don't be restrained yourself" Zhang Hengyuan carefully sketched the details of the characters with a pen while saying what he had said many times to Xue Jiyue.
"I see," Xue Jiyue twitched at the corner of her lips. Leaving the Merlin Gallery with graceful steps, she is now going to prepare for the opening of Jin Yu the day after tomorrow, and she wants to make their opening celebration the most eye-catching sight on the whole street.
Guan Xiao took Jin Yu to the market to buy a lot of ribbons and colored balloons, and by the way, Yue Zhanhe and them were called to help, the four of them hung up the ribbons and balloons in the store, Lu Mingyu, who was born in interior design, brought them good advice, Lu Mingyu not only knows how to design, he can also cut paper, Guan Xiao looked at the window glass at this time, and those particularly trendy totem paper-cuts were actually from a man's hand.
"I didn't expect you to be so powerful," Guan Xiao admired sincerely.
"It's just my hobby when I was in college" Lu Mingyu was a little embarrassed to be praised, he couldn't respond to the woman's exaggeration, when he was confessed by a girl in the store before, the girl didn't blush, he blushed, and he was at a loss to find Yue Zhanhe, who was frying hair in the kitchen.
"Are your two friends coming tomorrow besides us?" Lu Mingyu cut the tape and carefully pasted his paper-cut masterpiece.
"It'll come." Guan Xiao, who handed him the tape, replied in a low voice, and his high mood just now was reduced a lot because of this question.
Lu Mingyu sensed Guan Xiao's unhappiness, and his gaze moved between Guan Xiao and Jin Yu, "What? Aren't they your friends, you look unhappy?"
"It's nothing" Guan Xiao put the used tape into the bag and walked to the storage room sullenly.
Guan Xiao's sudden temper made the two people present except Jin Yu a little blinded. "What's going on? Did you guys quarrel yesterday or what's wrong? Yue Zhanhe asked Jin Yu curiously.
"There is no quarrel, how can I be willing to quarrel with Guan Xiao, I am blindly guessed that there are still a lot of ribbons that have not been hung" Jin Yu gave Yue Zhanhe an absolutely impossible look and threw a bag of ribbons to him.
Yue Zhanhe opened the package but still didn't give up, "Eh, but then again, I smell a heavy smell of ointment in the car." Did you knock over something?"
Jin Yu's movements paused, "It's the smell of Han Shuang's body, she... It's a disabled person," the strong smell of ointment, I'm afraid Makino and Han Shuang can't smell it anymore. "It's pitiful, she doesn't talk much, and she feels very scared, Makino gave me a rough description of her situation on the phone, and when I saw it, I could really understand the meaning of the word pity." Jin Yu sighed and shook his head, if it was her, I am afraid that she would only be bent on death.
"Then they will come tomorrow, then we have to buy a mat to cushion the steps outside" Yue Zhanhe suddenly became careful, which really made Jin Yu and Ming Yu look at him with admiration.
But they didn't expect it to happen. The next day, Jin Yu received a call from Makino, in which Mu Ye apologized to Jin Yu that something happened at home and they had to go back quickly, and they could not attend her opening ceremony, so they could only send a flower basket to apologize. Jin Yu, who heard the news, was a little regretful, she glanced at Guan Xiao beside her, but she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
"Alright then, then be careful on the road"
Hanging up the phone, Makino pushed Han Shuang into the waiting hall, her heart was cold, and sure enough, as Han Shuang said, Jin Yu didn't say to them that they were welcome to come next time. But Makino can think about it, she didn't need others to accept her, she and Han Shuang are stranded boats, she has long been used to the isolation around her, in front of her lover and others, she will always choose Han Shuang.
