037. He who has gold makes the law
When Shen Boteng took me away from here, when I arrived at the hotel, Secretary Dai just knocked the door, I pushed him away next to me, and wanted to walk a step or two independently, but I just opened my legs. Losing the support point, I found that my body had no strength at all, and the person who was standing crookedly and trembling began to tilt to the ground, but fortunately, Shen Boteng behind me reached out in time and hugged me from behind.
When I had fallen into his arms, he lifted me up from the ground and went straight to the bedroom, where he pushed the door open with one hand, and carried me in, until he came to a familiar bed, where he lifted the neat bed, and laid me down on the bed.
Secretary Dai quickly went into the bathroom and fetched a basin of hot water and brought it to the bedside. Just about to wring out the towel in the hot water to wipe my body for me, Shen Boteng stretched out his hand and said, "Give it to me." ”
Secretary Dai didn't understand what it meant at first, but Shen Boteng pointed to the towel in her hand and immediately handed it over, and after he took it, he tested the temperature on the towel. Brushing away the long messy sweaty hair on my forehead, wiping the corners of my forehead, the towel on his hand came to my still red and swollen cheeks, the force of his hand was noticeably softened, and his brow furrowed slightly. Holy Day Tricks.
Immediately, instead of touching the wounds, he wiped my body.
I just kept awake like that, and watched Shen Boteng with my eyes open, his careful and gentle appearance, it was difficult for me to get in touch, just now, this man made me understand what hell is.
I kept staring at him with that blank look as he wiped my body clean. After putting on a clean nightdress for me, and after taking care of my hair, he bent down and kissed me lightly on the forehead, then raised his hand and landed on his dry forehead, and in a low and calm voice, he said, "Sleep." ”
After five or six days of mental torture, I had never met my eyes once, let alone eaten a good meal, and coupled with the high level of mental tension, I was so tired that I didn't even have the strength to say a word. In the warmth of the room, I finally closed my eyes and fell asleep.
Before falling asleep, I always felt that I just had a nightmare, and the Shen Boteng in the nightmare was not real, and after waking up, every qiē would be fine, every qiē would be restored to its original state, and every qiē would be beautiful, and there would be no darkness.
But this self-hypnosis finally ended under my nightmare, and after I was awakened, I looked sideways and saw that the man lying next to me was Shen Boteng.
He slept like everyone else, always upright. It's so calm that it's impossible to guess if he's asleep or awake.
I looked at him by the dim moonlight outside the window, and after watching him for a long time, the man who was lying there with his eyes closed suddenly said, "Wake up." ”
I wasn't surprised in the slightest, and replied to him with a one-syllable, um-word.
He didn't open his eyes and continued, "Sleep." ”
I didn't lie down as he said, but said in a hoarse voice, "I had a dream just now." ”
He asked, "What a dream." ”
I said, "Nightmare." ”
"It's just a nightmare," he said. ”
I said, "It's very true." ”
He finally opened his eyes and looked at me.
I hugged myself and said to him, "I dreamed of us ten years later. ”
He seemed to find it amused, and a hint of interest flashed between his brows, waiting for me to continue.
But I just shook my head and said to him, "I'm not going to sue you." ”
Shen Boteng listened, he smiled and said, "Why." ”
I said, "Because when dreams are spoken, they become reality." ”
Shen Boteng got up from the bed, leaned on the bed, habitually went to the bedside table to get a cigarette and lit it, and after taking a puff, he seemed to smile at me and said, "I never believe in dreams." ”
I said, "I don't believe it either." ”
He raised his hand and took my hand, feeling the cold, he pulled me into his arms, covered the bodies of both of us with the quilt, and said with a smile, "It's late, go to sleep." ”
I nestled in his arms, ignoring him, just looking at the metal button on his chest in his pajamas and remembering the dream just now, after a while, I raised my face from his arms and asked, "Can you give me a smoking?" ”
He said, "Smoke? ”
I said, "Yes." ”
"Smoking is bad for your health and is not allowed," he said. ”
I said, "Aren't you smoking too?" ”
He smiled and said, "My man, it doesn't matter. ”
I said, "Men can smoke, why can't women." ”
He looked at me for a long time, but finally did not agree, but extinguished the cigarette in his hand and said briefly: "Sleep." ”
After waking up the next morning, Secretary Dai came to Shen Boteng early in the morning, and after he got dressed slowly, he looked at me with a side face that was still shrunk in the quilt, smiled a little, and then walked out of the bedroom.
After he went to the living room, I washed up from the bathroom, sat in front of the mirror and looked at my face, the injury was still there, but it was not as terrifying as a few days ago, I tried to cover it layer by layer with powder, and after covering it for a long time, the injury on my face was not so obvious, I got up from the mirror and left, and went to the cabinet to get clothes, I thought that all the things I left here had been taken to Shen's house, but the cabinet door was opened, and there were a few women's clothes mixed with men's shirts and coats inside.
It's clothes that I don't wear often, and Shen Boteng didn't find anyone to throw them away.
I took one casually, and after changing it, I didn't stay in the bedroom for long, turned around and walked towards the living room, but as soon as I walked to the door, I just pushed the door open a gap, and I happened to see and hear Secretary Dai and Shen Boteng mention Shen Ting's injury, I heard that Shen Ting has improved at present, and there is no major problem, but his spirit is still a little unstable for the time being, and he still needs to recuperate, and all the company's affairs will be handed over to him and Shen Bowen for the time being.
Shen Boteng was sitting on the sofa flipping through the newspaper in his hand, listening casually.
After Secretary Dai said these words, he glanced at Shen Boteng and said, "The eldest lady called yesterday and said that she wanted us to hand over the people to their management. ”
Shen Boteng flipped through the newspaper for a moment, but he didn't raise his face to look at Secretary Dai, his eyes continued to fall on the newspaper, and asked casually: "How did you answer." ”
Secretary Dai said: "I replied to the eldest lady, after all, people came out of your side, and if such a thing happens, it is naturally up to us to solve it, and I also reassured the eldest lady and assured her that we will definitely give her an explanation." ”
Regarding Secretary Dai's words, he didn't say whether it was good or bad, but just replied lightly: "The big lady's trick can give her father's favor, and she can have a reason and excuse to get rid of the thorn in the flesh, and the person will be handed over to her, while her father is hospitalized and unable to withdraw, it is estimated that there is no return." ”
Secretary Dai said: "She knows the identity of Miss Liang? ”
Shen Boteng said: "Shen Bowen is her son, what do you think?" ”
Secretary Dai said: "If you want Chairman Shen to know the relationship between you and Miss Liang...... Secretary Dai did not say it completely, but left room for her, she looked at Shen Boteng with worry.
Shen Boteng's eyes focused on the newspaper and said: "There is still a bunch of messes behind Shen Bowen's buttocks, if she dares to say it, I can't ask for it." ”
I stood at the door and listened for a while, and when I was retreating into the bedroom to close the door, I heard Secretary Dai ask Shen Boteng, "How is Miss Liang's mental condition?" ”
"Well, it's okay."
"Wouldn't it be too much? Yesterday she seemed to be a little ......"
"Her biggest shortcoming is that she has a strong temper, and according to such a character, she can't live for three years in the Shen family."
I didn't continue to listen to what they were talking about, but closed the door softly and turned back into the bedroom.
Shen Boteng and Secretary Dai talked outside for almost three hours, I felt that Secretary Dai had left here, I came out of the bedroom, and walked straight to Shen Boteng, who had changed from the sofa to the dining table, he was having breakfast, saw me beside him, he put down the Western food knife in his hand, wiped the corners of his mouth with a wipe, he said: "It's still early today, why don't you take a break." ”
I said, "Not too sleepy." ”
Shen Boteng said: "Breakfast has been prepared, both Chinese and Western. ”
I said, "I want to go see Shen Ting." ”
Shen Boteng was a little surprised when he heard my words, and looked at me with raised eyebrows.
I said, "I will stay in the Shen family according to your instructions, and I can also promise you that nothing like this will happen from now on, and I will honestly be my fourth aunt's wife to please Shen Ting." ”
I said this very fluently without the slightest pause, but I didn't get a response from Shen Boteng, he just leaned back in his chair and looked at me calmly.
I said, "Questions? ”
"No problem," he said. ”
I said, "Why don't you speak?" ”
Shen Boteng smiled lightly and said: "You have one more chance now, if you don't want to stay in the Shen family, I can send you away and leave here to live the life you want." ”
If this sentence were normal, I would definitely be impatient, happy, and answered, but today I am also very calm, I and Shen Boteng looked at each other for a long time, for a long time, I slowly shook my head and said: "I choose to give up this opportunity." ”
"Reason," he said. ”
I said: "Actually, after thinking about some things, there is nothing wrong with staying in the Shen family to be your father's aunt's wife, compared to being a prostitute, it is always better to be the wife of a wealthy family, at least stay in the Shen family, stay by your father's side, I can have no worries about food and clothing, glory and wealth for a lifetime, no need to be looked down upon, no need to be afraid of being bullied." ”
The smile on the corner of Shen Boteng's mouth was closed, his face didn't know if it was happy or angry, and said lightly: "You think about it, the opportunity is only this once, if you miss it, there will be no more." ”
I said, "I know." ”
Shen Boteng said bluntly: "You surprised me. ”
I smiled at Shen Boteng and said, "Because you made me understand a truth." ”
He asked, "What's the truth?" ”
I said, "He who has gold makes the law." ”
Shen Boteng laughed, how funny this seemed to be, after he finished laughing, the smile was collected from his eyes, and he said, "That's right." ”
