CHAPTER XXII

"Going to the Soup and Fire" / Call me Meow

In my life, the most feared thing is not being able to meet someone who makes you have the urge to go to the soup.

"'A week of entertainment'..."Chen Ziang reached out and took the coffee in his hand, pressed it to his lips, and his movements froze. Lowered eyelids, the coffee cup was empty.

He put the cup aside, rubbed his frowning brows, and said to himself in a half-loud voice: "The entertainment of City C is really dedicated. ”

The tone is unhurried, but it is loud.

Assistant Wen Xin exchanged glances with the secretary who had just come in to get the papers, and the secretary cleverly took the cup out and refilled the warm coffee.

The mellow aroma of coffee filled the room, and Chen Ziang picked it up again and took a sip. Whether it's bitter or sweet, he doesn't really care about the taste. But the heat slowly entered his stomach and intestines, and he suppressed the sudden stabbing pain in his chest. The two people, whose eyes had been on the newspaper, put away the trance that flashed in their eyes, closed the newspaper irritably, and asked the assistant who had been waiting next to him, "Have you contacted them?" ”

"I have been on the phone with the editor-in-chief of 'One Week Entertainment', and they still have a lot of photos and materials in their hands. This time I was really prepared, and it seems that the follow-up is not a day or two. ”

It's really not a day or two, 'One Week Entertainment' didn't release it in time after taking such an interesting photo, but chose to release it a week later, and discerning people can naturally see their purpose at a glance. It is not the first time Chen Ziang has encountered such a thing, he was able to ignore it before, and now he is willing to spend a lot of money to settle this matter.

Chen Ziang slowly raised his eyes and looked ahead, only to realize that it seemed that he would forget his principles about her.

After Wen Xin finished speaking, he handed a white envelope to the table in front of Chen Ziang, "This is all the negatives sold from them, and they will be clarified in the news tomorrow." ”

Chen Zi raised his head, looked away from the envelope, lit a cigarette casually, and said lightly, "You can go to work." ”

Wen Xin responded and closed the door for him.

Outside the general manager's office, three or five female colleagues were listening to gossip around the two secretaries of the general manager. Chen Ziang occasionally has some scandals, which is also a normal thing. But for Chen Ziang's real emotional life, the outside world has rarely heard of it. Therefore, when such a news appeared on the front page of the latest issue of entertainment newspapers early this morning, it was indeed enough to cause a great commotion.

For the woman who was rubbed in Chen Ziang's arms and kissed, everyone had different opinions.

"I think it must be Miss Wen Nan, who have you seen besides her who has been with the general manager all these years?" It was Wu Lili from the planning department downstairs who spoke, and she liked to gather people to gossip the most, especially the gossip of the big people in the administrative department.

"Impossible, Miss Wen Nan has long hair, and the general manager will only show up with her when she is socializing." Xiao Li, the secretary who had just changed the coffee for the general manager, shook his head and analyzed matter-of-factly: "The general manager has been looking at the newspaper for a whole morning, and he sees Miss Wen Nan is faint, not like he feels like he is going to eat someone today." ”

"Well, you say, could it be Miss?" Another secretary, Xiao Zhang, said suddenly.

"It's possible, didn't the news report her return to City C last time? The general manager has always protected her well, and only Assistant Wen Xin has a chance to see her. Wu Qing, another staff member of the planning department, held his jaw and sighed, "I really didn't expect the general manager to have such a wolf side." ”

When their discussion was in full swing, Wen Xin glanced at the door behind him and interrupted, "Don't you have to go to work?" ”

He frowned and looked at the few people, and only after they had dispersed did he return to his work. Today, the general manager is afraid that he will have to put aside a lot of work, and he has to quickly dispose of all the backlog of work.

In the empty office, the furnishings are cold. The fireworks between his fingers went out, Chen Ziang put it to his mouth and took a deep breath, and spit out a white eye circle between his thin lips, nicotine is indeed the best thing to anesthetize human nerves.

Reaching for the envelope that had been lying on the table, he poured out the photographs and negatives inside and held them in his hands. Carefully laid out one by one, his expression sank, and he secretly gasped.

The sharp gaze swept over every photo, those were taken when Yao Qian happened to get into his car outside the Moson Hotel, when he met Yao Qian and Lu Zhao in the park, when he kissed her downstairs, and even when he confronted her in the restaurant.

His every move in City C turned out to be under someone else's camera.

Taking another puff of the cigarette, Qingming's eyes began to become cloudy. As if sad, the kiss in the photo catches the eye and lingers.

Under the dim street lamp, the effect of the photo is not good, but there is an indescribable taste.

Is it romantic? Or is it aesthetic?

Either way, it was hard for him to take his eyes off.

Thinking of that night, the tears on her face, the determination from her heart, and the indifference, his heart involuntarily hurt. Some people, love vigorously, and the result is bruised all over the body; Some people, love lightly, and the result is that they forget each other. looks together, and the white head is inseparable, is it only the princes and princesses in fairy tales who are qualified.

Their love was the latter at first, and then, now, even if it is covered in bruises, he admits it.

The man's mind was thoughtful, and he was stunned for a few seconds, then pressed the landline, "Tell the editor-in-chief of 'One Week Entertainment' that there is no second time in this matter." Also, I don't want to see this woman in the newspapers or in various media. ”

Even if she hurt him again and again, he wanted to protect her.

His tone was fierce and unquestionable. Wen Xin took the phone and hurriedly answered without thinking.

The eyebrows raised slightly, and the yin qi on Chen Ziang's face did not decrease, but became heavier and heavier, staring at the photos scattered on the table, "Since this is the case, then I will sell him a message by the way." ”

Wen Xin waited for a while, and the person over there whispered, "I have a wife." ”

"Directly answer: Is Mr. Chen already married?" Wen Xin felt that this answer was a little more rigorous. But when did the general manager get married, and how did he not know?

"It's not." Chen Ziang paused and emphasized again, his tone was not very good, "I have a wife." ”

Having a wife and being married are fundamentally two different concepts, and it is possible to have a wife but not necessarily to be married, because from the beginning he has already decided that there is only one wife in this life, and that is her.

The phone hung up, Wen Xin was stunned for two minutes, thinking about the general manager's last sentence repeatedly. He is saying that he has a wife, not that he is married. Aren't these two sentences the same meaning?

But why do you want to keep it on it?

Perhaps, the general manager has his own meaning. Wen Xin picked up the phone and contacted the editor-in-chief of 'One Week Entertainment'.

In the past two days, Marriott's general manager has been dominating the headlines in the entertainment industry. Let a group of celebrities who plan to win headlines and attract attention, and continue to create scandals and problems, even if they rack their brains, it will be difficult to achieve their wishes, and they will lose one after another.

The news about Chan Zi Ang has received an enthusiastic response, especially in City C.

The headlines for two consecutive days were all broken by 'Entertainment of the Week', and when the kissing photos of Chen Ziang and the mysterious woman published on the first day were still heating up in people's attention, the editor-in-chief of 'Entertainment of the Week' suddenly stood up to apologize to Chen Ziang and published a statement that the photos were synthesized with computer technology. When people sighed about this, they had given up guessing the heroine of the scandal. On the morning of the third day, the 'week' entertainment released another piece of news that was more likely to cause a lot of conversation.

The general manager of Marriott claimed that he already had a wife, accompanied by a personal photo of Chen Ziang.

As soon as the news came out, it caused an uproar again. Those who were still speculating about the kissing heroine the day before turned their heads and began to guess the identity of Chen Ziang's mysterious wife.

But this time, everyone unexpectedly tacitly put the object on his girlfriend who had just returned from London and was secretly protected by Chen Ziang. This is also the final guess of the official 'Entertainment of the Week'.

In the kitchen, Yao Qian was washing dishes with an apron. The door opened by Zigui to Lu Zhao, as soon as he saw that it was Lu Zhao, the whole person hung on Lu Zhao's body like a koala.

"Lu Zhao, you're here, and I'm still looking for you just now." Yao Qian dried her hands, untied her apron, and came out of the kitchen.

Lu Zhao held his daughter in one hand and pinched the morning newspaper in his hand with the other, "What time is the plane today?" ”

Tomorrow Chen Bin's wedding, Yao Qian took the time to fly to City A and was invited to participate.

"The plane at three o'clock in the afternoon, it's still early." Yao Qian poured him a cup of tea, his eyes fell on the hand that Lu Zhao had been carrying behind him, the corners of his mouth were grinning, and he said with a smile: "What are you hiding in your hand?" Show me. ”

Lu Zhao pursed his lips, his expression unusually serious. When he was still hesitating to show Yao Qian, the newspaper had already been snatched.

Yao Qian looked at the man in the crisp suit in the newspaper and knocked over the freshly brewed tea on the coffee table. was sitting on Lu Zhao's body playing with Barbie's rules, and quickly stood up and handed the rag to his mother.

In the photo, the glittering ring on the ring finger of the man's left hand is eye-catching.

It turned out that it was a wedding ring.

It turned out that she had not found out.

It turned out that he protected that person so well.

She and he were secretly filmed kissing in the hospital and made public. Yao Qian didn't know why it was reported a week late, but she knew that he would have a way to solve it, and he did have the ability to block Youyou's mouth.

He was married, she was married.

That's good, and at this point neither of them is in arrears anymore.

Only, his wife......

Is it Jiang Xiaoxi?

Yao Qian has always understood that in her relationship with Chen Ziang, even though she was unwilling at the beginning, even though she had her own hardships, she was indeed the first person to betray love. From the time Yao Qian accepted Lu Zhao to start a married life, she never thought that one day she would mind Chen Ziang's own marriage. Two people who have said goodbye to love, forgetting each other is the best ending of the love story.

She knew it, and she had always insisted on it.

His wife can be Wen Nan, it can be someone else, it can be any woman.

No matter who that person was, she would smile and bless him.

Yao Qian closed his eyes, and Jiang Xiaoxi's figure appeared. The woman who appeared at the same time as Chen Ziang at the airport, shopping mall, and hospital, the woman who made her almost collapse and heartbroken.

I haven't seen her for too long, so I didn't recognize her in time. It was precisely because of this that after she suddenly heard Jiang Xiaoxi's voice in the hospital, she was so flustered.

One is the man she once loved with her life, and the other is a friend who witnessed her pursuit of love all the way. She felt uncomfortable, why should his wife be her good friend?

This discomfort is not jealousy, not envy.

It's hard to accept, it's hard to face.

That's why she lost her mind so much that night, and she couldn't suppress the grief and anger in her heart. She would have longed for him to die, and the pain in her heart would only be understood by those who had experienced it.

"Mom, your feet are full of tea." Daughter's soft voice.

Yao Qian came back to her senses, looked at the tea that was dripping all over the place, and quickly took the rag in her daughter's hand and cleaned it up. Zigui sat back on the carpet, took the doll in his hand, and asked Lu Zhao thoughtfully, "Dad, doesn't Mom hurt?" 166 Reading Network
