The Shengtang Hotel is a high-end hotel in China, and most of the people who can live in the Shengtang Dynasty are rare bigwigs, and she seems to have heard of it somewhere, both the Qin family and the Gu family hold 20% of the shares of the Shengtang Hotel.

The car was parked in front of the hotel, when I got off the car, it was already more than 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the day in Y city at the end of autumn was very short, and the sky began to darken early, Ji Xinyao just got off the car with her front feet, and was frozen by the cold wind blowing suddenly in front of her, she only wore a long-sleeved cotton shirt and thin coat when she came from G City, but she didn't expect that the current Y city was much colder in autumn than a few years ago.

She couldn't help but raise her hand and rub her arms, suddenly her shoulders and back were warm, and she turned her head subconsciously, seeing that Gu Nancy had taken off his own coat and draped it on her at some point.

"Let them take you to your room, and ask the hotel waiter to prepare some meals to cushion your stomach first. I still have some things to do, so you just happened to be alone and calm down and read more of the materials that Secretary Gao gave you. He lowered his hand and pointed to the two staff members who were already guarding the door of the hotel.

"Then I'm in." She nodded, hesitated when she walked into the door of the hotel, thinking about what Gu Nancy gave her the coat to wear, but as soon as she turned around, she saw that he was already in the car, and the black business car drove away in the blink of an eye.

She glanced at the car in the distance, thinking that he should have a special car to pick him up wherever he went, and he shouldn't catch a cold, so she turned around and walked in with the two staff members.

When the two staff members went in, they specifically asked her if she would open another room or go to Mayor Gu's room, and she asked for another one without thinking about it.

Went straight to the floor with the room card alone, she knew that Gu Nancy's room was 1909, and her room was arranged by the two staff members to 1908, just opposite his room, but now that he was not in the hotel, she only glanced at the opposite door, and turned into her room.

This is a premium star suite of the Tang Hotel, as soon as you walk in, your feet step on the soft carpet, turn on the light and look inside, you only feel luxurious and comfortable.

Slowly walked to the large and bright floor-to-ceiling windows, gently opened the heavy dark gold curtains, and looked into the distance, although it was not yet 6 o'clock, the sky was already half dark.

From the moment she got off the plane a few hours ago and set her feet on this land again, for more than seven years, she thought that she had already let go of her already calm heart, and she couldn't be too calm and indifferent.

This city has given her too many unforgettable memories, and maybe even that qiē memory has long been ingrained in her life, she once thought that those can be passed, and she can completely forget about it from now on, but when she stands in this city again today, she can't calm down.

Looking at the city from afar and gradually turning on the lights until it was brilliant in an hour, the 24-story building next to the TV tower in the north of Y City, suddenly recalled the image of my mother jumping down there 20 years ago.

That building was the only tallest building in G City, and today, twenty years later, skyscrapers abound, and if it weren't for her clear sense of direction, she might not have been able to accurately find the twenty-four-story building that has been renovated many times.

She clearly remembered that the man who could only be regarded as her father in terms of blood, the famous Chief of Staff Ji of the Y City Military Region in China, no, Chief of Staff Ji back then was just a non-commissioned officer who had just won the battle merits, and it took him more than ten years to climb to the position of chief of staff, and it was his wife, He Jiezhen's sister He Manni, the woman who left a deep and indelible scar on her life in her childhood.

Feeling. Woman? Or the package. Raise?

She remembered that she was a few months older than Ji Chengcheng, was someone abandoning his wife and daughter to join him for the sake of fame, fortune and status, or was her mother really just his mistress Ji Qiuhang was outsourcing to 'raise'? All of them knew in their hearts that the reason why He Jiezhen never embarrassed her or rejected her was because He Jiezhen saw her own sister snatch this man from other women?

And now she can only complain about her mother's stupidity back then, but it is also stupid and distressing.

Unmarried and pregnant, pregnant with a child, waiting for the man surnamed Ji to go back to marry her, but in the end what he got was the news that he married someone else, although the He family at that time was not a big family with a high reputation in China, but it was not a small family, coupled with the relationship between the He family and the general of the military region, He Manni was also pregnant, and in the end, Ji Qiuhang chose to be the son-in-law of the He family, and kicked away the woman who had been willing to commit to her, including the child in her belly, he didn't even care.

Who is the third party, those who are sanctimonious have always been clear in their hearts, but they have called the innocent and deceased moral traitors.

Where does the word 'mistress' come from?

He Manni explained to everyone who saw her and Xiu Li like this: "This girl is the seed left by our family Lao Ji when she was young and debauched outside with a little mistress before she got married, and if you don't stay at home to raise them, you can't watch them starve to death." ”

When she was young, Ji Xinyao didn't understand anything, she thought that her mother really destroyed other people's families, Ji Qiuhang said that having her in the Ji family was already considered kind to her, Mrs. Ji He Manni said that she was a shameless cheap, Ji Chengcheng said that her mother destroyed other people's families and said that she was a bad child and should not live in this world to be embarrassed, since she was a child, she thought that she owed others everywhere she was over, and she obviously had the strength to resist, but she could only let it be beaten and scolded, she didn't dare, she didn't dare to fight back, she didn't even dare to talk back, Because she felt that her existence was a mistake at that time.

At the age of sixteen, she learned the truth from the mouths of some old people, although she could already distinguish right from wrong at that time, but because of the twelve years in the Ji family, she had become accustomed to life, even if she was no longer convinced in her heart, she still forbears again and again, and occasionally a small resistance has no effect.

It wasn't until she was seventeen years old that she was completely determined to leave the Ji family.

Because of the cowardice in Ji Qiuhang's bones, the arrogance of He Mannick and Ji Chengcheng's mother and daughter, people are like this sometimes, obviously you are not wrong, and even you are reasonable, but in the face of unreasonable people, no one will care about you even if you say the sky, but you will drive yourself crazy.

There is no fairness in this world, she understood it at a very young age, because at that young age, she was unable to resist this qiē, so she resolutely chose to stay away from these nightmares, she could not choose her origin and the fate of the past seventeen years, but from then on, she could choose the future for herself.

Her future, don't have anything to do with any Ji family anymore!

That's why when she learned that An Yueze chose Ling Fei'er for fame and fortune, she would be so calm and sneering at them like that. Although he is unwilling, he has already seen through it.

I don't know when the world has become so bad, feelings can always use each other, women always want to find a tall branch to fly on the branch to become a phoenix, and an incompetent man always wants to find a woman who can help him rise to the top as a stepping stone.

Memories of the past are springing up, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, always looking at the edifice that opened the curtain on her tragic childhood.

However, no one knows that what she hates most in her heart is her mother. The cowardly woman who gave birth to her after learning that Ji Qiuhang was married, and the decadent woman who began to stay in the nightclub, the woman who flaunted in the nightclub at night, washed her face with tears at home during the day, and lived like hell, the woman who finally couldn't hold on after four years and selfishly jumped off the roof of that building......

A woman who gave up her life for a failed love and a man who was not as good as a beast.

She hates, she resents, she is angry, why does a woman want to let herself live so cowardly and incompetent, if it is hers, she will fight, what can she do? Life is day after day, and when it gets dark, the sun will rise tomorrow as usual, and no one will really come to a dead end. I have to push myself into a corner where no one is around, and then tell myself every day that I am cornered, and then, in such a tragic way.

She hated it so much, but she also missed that woman so much, she was distressed, but she was never able to sympathize.

Cowardly women are indeed pathetic, but they never deserve sympathy.

Even her own mother.

A lover who can't get it, a man who has been heart-touched and got along with a little bit of warmth, he abandoned you for various reasons, gave up on you, and made you break your heart.

Once Ji Xinyao was confused about this, she never knew whether she didn't care or couldn't let go, and it wasn't until the end that she realized that it was just an inertial attachment in human nature derived from not getting it, and it didn't mean anything else.

Until that day, I met An Yueze in F City, and saw that man standing in front of her as he did at the beginning, saying those words that I don't know if they are true or false, but she is no longer willing to explore whether it is true or false, and some things are never worth looking back again, even if you have really loved each other.

And the word love, who can really understand it.

Even if it's love, how much love?

Is it that if she is a little cowardly, she will also learn from her mother to design a vigorous death for herself, thinking that it will give that man a fatal impact, thinking that he will be heartbroken and regretful, and will be willing to keep filial piety for you for the rest of his life?

But she was unusually sober, maybe self-deception could delay the pain at the tip of her heart, but she never told herself a cruel fact!

************************************************************************

The night is like splashing ink.

The materials in her hand have been turned over countless times, and Ji Xinyao silently memorized the more professional terms in the materials, while continuing to look at some of the essence of these materials from beginning to end.

While she was thinking, there was a knock on the door, and she glanced at the time, 9 o'clock in the evening. got up to open the door, and saw that it was Gu Nancy standing outside the door, she didn't feel strange at all, and other staff members probably didn't dare to knock on her door at this time.

The moment Gu Nancy opened the door, her eyes fell on her.

Ji Xinyao thought that she would go to bed early after looking at the materials for a while, and she would be energetic at work tomorrow, so she took a shower early, because she was not used to wearing a bathrobe in the hotel, so she took out her pajamas directly from the small suitcase she brought to wear them.

Merely......

Although the pajamas weren't revealing, she seemed to be used to wearing no underwear before going to bed after a shower.

Realizing where his shallow gaze was reaching, and then seeing the teasing meaning on his lips, Ji Xinyao looked down at him, immediately turned around, raised his arms to block his chest, and hurriedly ran in to cover himself with a coat.

Hearing the sound of Gu Nancy walking in and stepping on the carpet, she ripped off her coat, and then turned to look at him, he seemed to be in a good mood today, seeing the materials on the table that seemed to have been turned over countless times, he reached out and picked it up and looked at it casually, then looked at her sideways: "So serious?" ”

"Of course you have to be serious, after all, this is my first contact, and you have given me such an opportunity, of course I have to take it well and not be negligent." As soon as she saw him talk about work, she was embarrassed by him to see that she was not wearing underwear.

Gu Nancy smiled, put down the material, and asked lightly, "Have you eaten at night?" ”

"After a little bit, this hotel will send some delicate snacks and fruits to each room at half past six in the evening."

"That's all you eat?"

"Well, because I'm always thinking about tomorrow, I'm a little bit unsavory."

"Change clothes, let's go out." He said.

"Why are you going?"

"As far as you are in Y City these days, I am not only your husband, but also your boss, and I can't starve you." He said lightly, and then looked at a few sheets of A4 paper full of words on the table, those were all copied by Ji Xinyao silently when she memorized those professional terms at night, and she was more impressed by memorizing while writing, and two were study notes she wrote by herself while looking at those materials.

As if interested, he picked up a note she had written and looked at it carefully.

After a while, he turned his head to look at the woman who had been standing by the bed and did not move, and saw that she was still a set of pajamas and a coat: "Why didn't you change your clothes?" ”

Ji Xinyao's eyelids twitched, looked at the door, and motioned for him to go out.

Gu Nancy was quite surprised, then smiled clearly, turned to leave, but still holding the A4 paper, paused when he walked to the door, and glanced back at her: "I've touched everything, what's embarrassing." ”

After speaking, he walked away directly.

Ji Xinyao almost vomited blood, and the moment he closed the door and went out, he almost picked up his slippers and threw them over, and he endured it before turning around to change his clothes.

What if you touch it, how many women who have been married for several years are still not used to changing clothes naked in front of their husbands, not to mention that they haven't done well......

But inexplicably, I always feel that his words are not ambiguous, but like the intimacy between the natural husband and wife.

Until she came out after changing her clothes, the door of Gu Nancy's room opposite was open, she looked around, didn't see him, so she walked directly to the door of his room and saw that he was on the phone.

Hearing the voice of walking to the door, he glanced back at her and said into the phone: "Okay, that's it." And he hung up.

"It's so late, there shouldn't be a few restaurants still open, right? The northern cities are quiet at night, not as lively as the southern cities at night, and it's still autumn, and few shops are open at night. She said.

Gu Nancy didn't seem to be worried, and when she walked out, her eyes swept over her: "Wear so little? Not afraid of catching a cold again? ”

"Because I was only on a business trip for four or five days, I didn't bring too many clothes."

"Why don't you wear the coat I brought you in the afternoon?"

"In the room, I was about to return it to you, and I just forgot to take it out." As she spoke, she turned to get it.

"Put that coat on first, it's only minus five degrees now."

Ji Xinyao paused, didn't shirk any more, and went back to the room to put on the coat he put on her in the afternoon, although it was a little bigger, and the sleeves were a little long, but fortunately, she showed that she was petite and rarely had the taste of a little woman, she immediately smiled and pulled her clothes together and walked out.

"Let's go." She raised her eyes and smiled at Gu Nancy, who was waiting outside the door.

He looked at her lightly in his clothes, and a hint of shallow ridicule crossed his faint thin lips: "Ji Xinyao, how many are you one meter and five?" ”

Her face darkened: "I'm obviously 1.6 '4!" ”

"Really? How does it look so small? He smiled, said no more, and walked to the elevator.

Ji Xinyao followed quickly: "What do you mean I'm so small?" One meter six 'four is not short at all, is it good? I usually wear high-heeled shoes of about five centimeters, and they are almost 1.7 meters, okay? I just thought that there was no need to wear high heels when I went out to eat at night, so I wore flat shoes, do you need to be so despicable about my height, one meter six 'four is a very normal height among ordinary women......"

Listening to her strict blabla explain a lot, Gu Nancy just laughed, and when the elevator stopped on the first floor, he grabbed her hand casually and pulled her out directly.

Ji Xinyao followed him all the way out of the hotel, the hands of the two were still holding, she thought that there was a staff member here who knew that they were married, so she was like this, but she looked around and saw someone, and before she could ask, the person had followed him to the side of the road.

"Is it cold or not?" He asked suddenly.

"It's okay, it's not cold."

"Shall we go then?"

He asked for her opinion, but she was stunned for a moment, looked at his inky eyes in the colorful night, and nodded.

She knew that the place separated by two main roads in the Shengtang Hotel was one of the most prosperous commercial streets in Y City, and it took about 20 minutes to walk there from here, so there was really no need to take a car.

In the late autumn night in the north, not only is the temperature low, but you will also feel the cold wind for a long time, the two walk side by side, and two long reflections spread out under the dim street lamp.

At this moment, it was a rare peace of mind after Ji Xinyao got off the plane at the airport in Y City, and she turned around from time to time to look at the elegant man walking beside her.

A man like Gu Nancy, I'm afraid he rarely has time to accompany a woman on the side of the road in the dead of night, right?

Is this an honor for her?

Anyway, she has a little pride and vanity inexplicably because of the man next to her at this moment.

Suddenly, because of another thing in her heart, she burst out laughing inexplicably, Gu Nancy, who was walking quietly beside her, turned her head to look at her, her eyes glowed with a faint starry wave: "What are you laughing at?" ”
