81 Extra—Just because it's you

I once loved a man obsessively, thinking that he was all I had.

In the midst of poverty and despair, we supported each other, and when we lost loved ones, we relied on each other.

Almost, I thought, we'd be together for the rest of our lives.

Goodbye, my dearest you, maybe we'll never see each other again.

Goodbye, my youth, I will remember everything that was once good.

Goodbye, pray for the sea.

- Liang Ju. Winter 2013.

City A is a harbor-type city that shines as brightly as daylight even at night.

The lights of thousands of high-rise buildings in the distance, the passers-by in a hurry, and the uncle shouting and selling sweet potatoes on the street, everyone here is doing their best for their lives.

Liang Ju has been in this strange and familiar city for nearly ten years, and every day, she lives the same life.

Go to work, work overtime, get off work, go home. Then the next day, go to work again.

It seems that only work is left in her life.

Now she works as a project manager for a Hong Kong-listed translation company, and the boss is a Hong Kong man who speaks non-standard Chinese every day, and is talking to Liang Ju about how he developed the market in the mainland by himself. After a long time, Liang Ju was also numb to listen.

Compared with her temper a few years ago, she is now much more tame.

Her mother had called several times to test her current love life, but Liang Ju continued to pretend not to understand and did not give any answer.

It wasn't until last month that my father personally came to make a phone call.

Liang Zhifu said to Liang Ju on the phone: "That person came out of prison a few years ago, and I heard that he is now in your city. ”

At that time, Liang Ju's brain was only paralyzed for a moment, and in just a second, she returned to her senses.

Now that he is in the newspaper and on TV every day, how could she not know.

The man, here. With her in a city.

Liang Ju tried not to let herself recall too much of the past, but it was inevitable that she would wake up from nightmares many nights.

In the dream, he stood in front of her covered in blood.

It was easy to forget about him, but she didn't have the courage to prove it. Memories seemed too extravagant for her.

Explain their story in the words of the lyrics, but that's it.

It's just that he owes her an explanation.

It's just that they have experienced too much, and they have experienced too many unforgettable memories and years.

On Monday morning, it was still busy, and Liang Ju went to the company before eight o'clock, with a pair of large and deep dark circles under his eyes.

Tonight she will personally come to receive several distinguished guests from the United States, and the boss Kevin asked her to go.

After a day of meetings, it wasn't until four o'clock in the afternoon that Liang Ju dragged his tired body back to his office.

Before he could rest, the secretary Xiao Tang stood at the door with a smile and knocked on the door a few times.

"Manager Liang, Kevin asked you to rush to the East China Club before seven o'clock in the evening."

After pouring two cups of coffee in a row, Liang Ju raised his head and asked, "Don't you have to go to the airport to pick up customers?" ”

Xiao Tang had been following Liang Ju for less than three months, and she stood at the door in an orderly manner, shaking her head, "I forgot to ask Kevin." ”

Thinking about his timid appearance when he first arrived at this company, Liang Ju nodded without embarrassment, "I know." ”

Liang Ju was busy sending an email to the headquarters while glancing at the time on the computer.

At 4:20, in addition to replying to two emails and making a report, she still has less than two hours to go home to take a shower and change clothes, and then go to the East China Club on the outskirts of the city.

East China Clubhouse ......

The hand on the keyboard shook violently unconsciously.

East China Club is an entertainment venue that has gradually emerged in City A in recent years, because of the extravagant decoration and the application of the place, it has been recognized by many businessmen in the business field, and many celebrities frequently stay, and it is inadvertently for this mysterious place, which has improved a lot of benefits and popularity.

However, what more people are curious about is the *OSS behind it.

The mysterious man.

The mysterious person who has only been in City A for a few years, has completely disrupted the original financial chain of City A.

He has been involved in a number of industrial chains, including real estate, coal mining, automobiles, entertainment and other industries.

Now in City A, it has been called the commercial boss of City A.

The business empire he built single-handedly is astounding.

***

A year ago, Liang Ju bought a house for himself in this new city.

She wanted to take her parents over, but unfortunately her father refused his daughter's kindness.

As for letting their daughter go home, both parents know Liang Ju's heart knot, so no one mentioned it.

Liang Ju was reluctant to go back to that place full of memories.

She would rather turn into a turtle and hide here forever with her shell.

Drying the water on his body, Liang Ju chose a red dress from the wardrobe.

This dress was a gift she bought for herself on her birthday last year.

It's sexy and atmospheric.

That's the image she wants to present tonight.

She is already an independent and self-reliant woman.

Standing in front of the changing mirror, taking off her bathrobe, a slender woman with fair skin and slender legs appeared in the mirror.

The smooth skin of the whole body shone in the light of the light.

However... This body still has a cripple.

A scar on the lower abdomen gives the perfect body a crack.

Raise your hand and gently stroke it, it is warm, no longer cold, no longer painful.

Liang Ju hid the grief on his face, quickly changed his clothes, and painted a perfect makeup for himself.

The flaming red lips make her whole person look charming and mature.

She didn't really want to dress up like that, but she felt scared.

In case she met him, she wanted him to know.

She's doing well.

***

drove directly to the East China Club, and before he reached the top of the mountain, Liang Ju sat in the car and saw that the lights were shining and there was a starlight.

It was her first time here, and it was a forbidden place for her.

The car drove to the main entrance of the East China Club, and before he got out of the car, there were already waiters running from the door, with clean steps and neat movements.

Sure enough, the people here have been trained.

Liang Ju got out of the car, handed the car keys to the waiter, glanced at the open-air parking lot not far away, and sighed.

It's almost a luxury car with a lot of water.

Standing at the main entrance of the East China Club, Liang Ju took a deep breath, adjusted his breath, and forced his heart to calm down.

Approaching the revolving door, the palatial and spacious hall gradually comes into view.

Liang Ju's anxious heart kept beating, and she thought silently in her heart as she walked to the elevator, hoping that tonight would go smoothly.

After getting out of the elevator, she was led to the box by the attendant.

Suddenly, the phone in the bag rang.

"Xiaoliang, this customer has arrived, when are you coming?" Through the phone, Liang Ju could hear the sound of music and the voices of several men on the other end of the phone.

"Kevin, I'm in the hallway, I'll be there soon."

"Okay, okay, I'm waiting for you! I'll introduce you to a big guy here, who will be our company's VIP customer in the future! ”

The music on the other end of the phone gradually became quieter, Liang Ju held the mobile phone, stood in the quiet corridor, and suddenly, heard a man's voice.

Although it was a few words that she couldn't hear clearly, the familiarity made her panic.

The phone hung up, and Liang Ju's heart beat faster. The steps taken have also become sluggish.

The waiter, dressed in a formal suit, opened the door of the box and stood sideways at the door and made a gesture of invitation to Liang Ju.

Only then did Liang Ju realize that she had arrived.

The lights of the large box were dim, and five or six men in suits sat scattered on the sofa.

At first glance, she saw the man whose upper body was hidden in the shadows, revealing only two slender legs.

At that moment, she heard the long-lost heartbeat, different from nervousness, not like scared.

Instead, it became a kind of beginning.

He wore a black suit, his white shirt was still clean and spotless, and the leather shoes on his feet were polished.

"Oh Xiaoliang, you're here!" When the boss Kevin saw Liang Ju, he hurriedly got up from the sofa and introduced her to everyone present. "This is the most capable female manager in our company, Liang Ju, come and meet a few bosses."

"Yo, Kevin, where did you get such a beautiful female assistant?" A boss in his forties sitting next to the man asked with a smile.

Liang Ju stood in place, stiff and sweaty palms.

She didn't move, but he got up.

This familiar figure, who has not been seen for a long time, has not left any traces on his face by the years.

On the contrary, he has become more mature and composed, exuding an irresistible charm from top to bottom.

Liang Ju knows that this is the taste of a successful man.

He got up from the couch, his deep, shining black eyes fixed on hers.

This look transcends time and forms a kind of precipitation.

She watched in amazement as he passed everyone else, step by step, slowly towards her.

He is still tall, and his face is more confident than before.

It seemed like a long, long time, and it seemed like only a second, and she saw him stand in front of her.

All the people in the box looked at them in unison, the music became ethereal, and in their eyes, the whole world seemed to be left with each other.

"Hello, I'm Mao Dong."

He held out his hand to her, his voice deep and deep, his angular face close as a dream.

Liang Ju took a deep breath and slowly raised his hand, "Mr. Mao, hello, my name is Liang Ju." Please advise. ”

There was a slight change on his face, and his expression was unfathomable.

"Lots of advice." His hand was on hers, neither heavy nor light.

Liang Ju felt Mao Dong's scorching gaze, and in a panic, she looked away.

She felt that his palms were slightly warm, and there was also a thin layer of sweat.

The door of the box was behind the two of them, and it slowly closed with the remaining decades of unfinished love.

turned off the previous edge and started a new relationship.

He once said that they are destined.

However, this affection is still delayed. 166 Reading Network
