"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.
Under the building of the Marriott branch, Wen Xin got out of the driver's seat and walked to the other side to open the backseat door. In a moment, a man in his fifties stepped out of the car, with a serious face that people did not dare to covet more. However, if you look closely, you will feel that he is somewhat familiar, this person is Chen Ziang's father Chen Jing, the current chairman of Marriott.
The woman who came out behind him, although she was old but graceful and luxurious, she was Chen Jing's wife, Yang Xue.
Chen Jing straightened the buttons of his sleeves, and asked Wen Xin with side eyes, "What about you Mr. Chen?" ”
"Mr. Chen is in a meeting." Wen Xin explained truthfully, and then led the two upstairs.
In the quiet conference room, only the sound of everyone's breathing remained, and Chen Ziang leaned back in his chair, looking at the people in the conference room over and over again. Some of them lowered their heads to avoid his gaze, some took pens and swiped on papers, and some even looked directly at him senselessly. Either way, they had no intention of speaking.
The air seemed to freeze in a long silence, and Chen Ziang let go of the pen in his hand and let it roll aside, his eyes sharpening. His temples twitched violently, he raised his hand and rubbed it, and said lightly: "Come here for the time being today, let's go back." ”
When he returned to the office, Chen Jing and Yang Xue were already waiting for him. Chen Jing probably glanced at his pale face, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "How are things going?" ”
Chen Ziang was a little tired, sitting opposite them, his expression calm, but his tone was full of tiredness, "It's a little tricky." ”
Although Yang Xue also knew that the hotel accident had a serious negative impact on Marriott, she was more worried about her son's health than this. Chen Jing couldn't let go of the development here, so she came with her. From the moment she saw Chen Ziang, she began to feel distressed, feeling that he had lost weight and turned pale, "Work is work, how can you make yourself like this?" ”
Chen Jing originally wanted to ask about some more things at work, but when he saw the worry on his wife's face and his tired son, he changed his words, "Have you eaten?" ”
Chen Ziang raised his hand and glanced at his watch, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, "You just got off the plane, I asked Wenxin to take you back to the hotel to rest, and dinner will be arranged in the hotel restaurant." ”
Chen Jing nodded, and Yang Xue also agreed, "You also go back to rest for a while, you haven't slept for a few days, right?" It hurts to look at me. ”
"Hmm." Chen Ziang agreed and sent them downstairs with Wenxi.
The three of them didn't say a word, but most of them were Yang Xue asking, and Chen Ziang was answering. They came out of the elevator, and the reception lady on the first floor saw Chen Ziang, so she hurriedly stepped forward to call him, "Mr. Chen." ”
Hearing the sound, they all stopped. Chen Ziang didn't speak, it was Wen Xin who opened his mouth: "What's the matter?" ”
"Mr. Chen, this young lady said that she knew you, so she had to go upstairs to find you." The reception lady stepped out of the way, and the woman standing behind her showed her face, and Chen Jing and Yang Xue couldn't help but glance at each other.
The bewitching red dress lined the woman's skin even fairer, and her long hair was loosely pulled up, giving people a sense of suffocation that was incredibly beautiful.
Yang Xue couldn't help but look at the woman a few more times, and couldn't help but envy in her heart, it's good to be young. Such a beautiful girl even looked at Chen Jing beside her for a while, but her son was indifferent.
Chen Ziang only glanced at her lightly, and there was no trace of surprise in his tone, "Why are you here?" ”
Wen Nan looked at him calmly, his heart twitched but he pulled the corners of his mouth, "You haven't been back to C City for half a month." ”
For half a month, she has been imprisoned in the Wen family's mansion, and Wen Xi perfunctory her with various lies every day, and then locked her in the room. She had never been so hopeless, and even though the sun was shining in every corner of the house, she still felt that the world was dark. finally let her find a chance to escape, but Rong's mother told her that Chen Ziang had not been to C City for a long time.
She called him, but it was turned off. After reading the news, I learned that someone else was in Q City, and before Wenxi found herself, she bought a ticket and flew over. When they met again, he seemed even more indifferent to her.
She smiled lightly, her tone was soft, and her words were slightly sad. Yang Xue is a person from the past, and quickly guessed that it must be the peach blossom debt that his son provoked outside. I used to hear my husband's friend mention his son, saying that he would bring a beautiful woman with him when he attended a banquet in City C, Yang Xue glanced at Wen Nan, who was dressed exquisitely, probably her.
Chen Jing cleared his throat and said to Chen Ziang lightly: "Handle the matter well, I will go back to the hotel with your mother first." ”
Yang Xue and Wen Nan bowed slightly, and then followed Chen Jing out of the hotel.
In the reception room, Chen Ziang sat on the sofa, his eyebrows wrinkled unconsciously, "Is there something wrong with you?" ”
"I miss you so much, have you ever thought about me?" Wen Nan's red nails held his hand, but she was thrown away, and she fell on the sofa.
Chen Ziang frowned deeply, "I'll ask someone to send you back to City C, Wenxi must be looking for you everywhere." ”
She was stunned for a while, but laughed, sat up with one hand supporting herself, and her voice trembled slightly, "Wenxi is looking for me, what about you?" Don't you want to see me at all? Chen Ziang, let's be honest. In the past two years, you have been using me as a stand-in for Yao Qian, right? ”
It's Yao Qian, it's she who has made Chen Ziang worry about her stomach for so many years.
Chen Ziang's gaze became far-reaching, and he said in a deep voice: "It's not a stand-in, you have nothing to do with her." ”
"Doesn't matter?" Wen Nan stared at him, in his heart, isn't he even a stand-in?
"If it doesn't matter, then why would you want to keep me with you?"
A trace of complicated emotions quickly floated in Chen Ziang's eyes, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. The two hands he placed in front of him were folded together, and the ring on his ring finger made Wen Nan close his eyes, and his tone was very cold, "I admit that the first time I saw you in the bar, I mistook you for her." ”
Wen Nan tugged at the corners of his mouth, look, men like to quibble like this. From the first time I saw him, he treated her as another person, but he kept saying no.
"At that time, your eyes were bright, and I looked for her for many years." Chen Ziang lit a cigarette, took a puff, and spat out a faint smoke ring.
Then he continued: "You are not her, and you cannot replace her. ”
Wen Nan's long eyelashes trembled, and she smiled self-deprecatingly, "I'm not her, so in these more than seven hundred days, you are willing to use countless money to satisfy me, you are willing to let me accompany you to various public occasions, and you are not willing to give me a kiss or a hug." Chen Ziang, don't you think you're cruel? ”
Chen Ziang stood up and walked around her to the floor-to-ceiling window.
When he met Wen Nan, it was the most tiring and difficult time for him to persevere.
"At first I left you with me in order to forget her, but then I found that instead of forgetting her, I missed her more and more. Wen Nan, a year ago, I had already let you leave, but you didn't. I'm sorry for my selfishness at first. So, I also have a responsibility to take care of you. And Wenxi doesn't want to see you go back to working at a bar. ”
As he spoke, his eyes were dim, "Now, we have nothing to do with each other." ”
Wen Nan squeezed his hands tightly, his nails digging into his palms, "Are you finished?" ”
Chen Ziang turned to look at her and remained silent. Wen Nan bit her lip and finally spoke, "Chen Ziang, do you know?" There is no more cruel man in this world than you. ”
Just for the sake of falling in love with this man, feeling sorry for his sadness, feeling sorry for his pain. People who think that through their own efforts and persistence, they can make him forget the past and leave. He warned her more than once not to attempt any affection in return except to stay by his side.
Is it that she has too many extravagant expectations, so he has to take them back.
A year ago, he suddenly didn't go to City C for two months, and he only gave her a phone call, a very cold call, and he told her that she could leave. She couldn't forget that night, she cried and begged him not to leave on the phone. He waited for her to finish venting without saying a word before calmly telling her that we had always been in such a relationship.
What kind of relationship? You can leave at any time, you can part ways at any time.
Everyone knows that the game of feelings cannot be played. It's that she's stupid, hopelessly stupid. She knew it was a money-losing gamble, but she made a bet. People who are emotionally moved lose their families.
"Do you think that after Wenxi's punches, we can break off cleanly?" Wen Nan looked at the fruit bowl used to entertain guests on the table, a sharp fruit knife was glowing with crystal light.
Chen Ziang took a puff of his cigarette and extinguished the cigarette butt, "Wen Nan, I said that there is no relationship between us, I owe you, I will compensate." ”
"You owe me?" Wen Nan smiled, and then kept nodding, "Yes, you owe me." You owe me a favor, Chen Ziang, can you afford it? ”
Chen Ziang, can you afford it?
Wen Nan looked straight at him, his dark eyes flashed with a sharp light, it was hatred. As much as she loved this man, she hated him. She said: "Chen Ziang, you can't afford it. I've fallen in love with you since the first day we met. For two whole years, how are you going to compensate me? Give me money? ”
At this time, Chen Ziang was half-hanging his face, and he couldn't distinguish any of his emotions.
In the middle of the ring, he said: "I can give you other compensation besides feelings." ”
Wen Nan sat on the sofa and took a deep breath, his eyes were cold mist, "Even if I die in front of you now, you won't feel distressed, right?" ”
Chen Ziang stood aside and leaned over to look at her, she was holding a knife in her hand, which was a fruit knife in a fruit bowl. His face froze, and he took out his mobile phone, "I'll let Wenxi pick you up." ”
"No, I don't." Seeing his unmoved appearance, Wen Nan's hot tears flowed out of his eyes. She went crazy and grabbed his hand with the phone, and she tried to stop him. 166 Reading Network
