I used to often hear my girlfriends around me complain that love and work are rivals, women are too tough, too busy to date, and men lose patience, so they become the ones who are the most alone and the most stubborn. At that time, Tang Xiaoya always laughed at it, but now that it was her turn, she suddenly had a deep understanding.

She is a newcomer in Hongyu, so naturally she can't be too backward, not to mention that Manager Lin has repeatedly hinted that he will be transferred at the end of the year, hoping that she will take over the position of department manager. The head is so important, isn't it too faceless for her not to be motivated? What's more, the project of the carnival was personally taken care of by the boss, and with a slap in the face, her not smart head had to become a rotten watermelon, so she didn't want to die too ugly.

Lu Mingxuan has been on the phone for several days and text messages, courteous and thoughtful, but she is either discussing the project with her colleagues, or concentrating on the design alone, in short, once, twice, three times...... After Lu Mingxuan's enthusiasm was poured a few basins of cold water, he didn't seem to dare to disturb her very much.

And Lu Mingxuan himself was too busy to find the north. He was parachuted into the position of marketing director of Jiayu Group at a young age, and naturally many people stood by and watched. In addition, he wanted to perform in front of Tang Xiaoya, so he also threw himself into his work.

On this day, Lu Mingxuan and Tang Xiaoya finally made an appointment to meet in the café during their lunch break.

As soon as Tang Xiaoya came, she turned into the corner position, which was her and Chen Ran's special seat, mainly to be quiet. The sofa was soft and wide, and she flipped through the magazines in her nest, and the people outside didn't pay attention, so she couldn't see it at all.

After a while, two women's voices came from next door, one high-pitched, the other low-pitched, chattering, it seemed to mention Jiayu, Lu Mingxuan or something, Tang Xiaoya came to the spirit, and as a result, she heard some inexplicable words.

"Hey, do you think Mr. Lu has a girlfriend? Why is he so handsome, gentle and elegant, he served as the marketing director at a young age, MYGOD, the male god in my mind. ”

"Don't dream less, all the unmarried beauties in the company miss him, and I haven't seen him look at anyone more."

"Hey, it's really discouraging to fight for a man and make your head bleed."

Another woman suddenly lowered her voice, "I heard that Mr. Lu and Shen of our American head office always have that kind of relationship, because he has a backer, so he became an airborne soldier." ”

"It's no secret. It is said that Mr. Shen has not remarried for so many years, just to wait for Mr. Lu's nod. ”

"Hey, how popular sister and brother love these days, there was a junior who had been chasing me before, I thought he was two steps younger than me, and flatly refused, and now I regret it...."

A sound of footsteps came from far and near, and the sound next door suddenly became quieter. Tang Xiaoya looked back, Lu Mingxuan walked over with long legs, and smiled warmly at her.

"Xiaoya, I'm sorry, I'm late."

The two women next door turned their heads in unison, as if they had seen a ghost, and were stunned, their faces were pale, and their mouths were open enough to fit an egg. Within a few seconds, the two of them dropped the hot coffee they had just served and fled in a hurry.

Lu Mingxuan glanced at it, a little confused, "What's wrong with those two women, their looks are quite weird, they seem to be a little familiar." ”

Tang Xiaoya remained silent, "It seems that I received a phone call before, probably in a hurry." ”

The coffee that had been ordered in advance had already been served, and she pushed the fragrant white coffee to Lu Mingxuan, sipping the latte herself, and the hot mouth was almost bitter. In fact, when Lu Mingxuan mentioned Shen Mingfang, she had a strange feeling when she said it, it seemed that the relationship between the two was not simple, but she didn't dare to delve into it, and now when she heard it mentioned from someone else's mouth, she felt uncomfortable for no reason.

"Xiao Ya ......", Lu Mingxuan pulled her hand over, held it in his palm, held it carefully, suddenly put it on his lips and kissed it deeply, and then put it down.

"Shall we live together, or simply get married?"

Tang Xiaoya was proposed to marriage for the first time in her life, she was unprepared, her heart jumped suddenly, and she looked at him blankly, in fact, she was more surprised than happy.

Lu Mingxuan patted her face and smiled bitterly, "We have been in love for so long, three years in college, if you count the five years of separation, it has been almost ten years, and it is time to talk about marriage." I remember that summer, in Mingyue Lake, we talked that we would get married after graduation, and if it weren't for my father's sudden illness, it would have been a different situation now. ”

Tang Xiaoya has described their future countless times, a warm little home, two cute little radish heads, bumping and bumping, and growing old. But all of a sudden, everything changed. She felt sour in her heart inexplicably, and wanted to promise him one bite and fulfill her thoughts for so many years, but there was another voice entangled her, and when she spoke, she hesitated.

"Mingxuan, give me a little time, after all, we have been separated for too long, in those five years, your life in the United States, my life here, for me and you, are all blank. Now that we've changed, it may take time to get used to each other. ”

Lu Mingxuan smiled tolerantly, "I'm sorry, I'm too anxious." It's okay, I'll wait for you. ”

The two chatted about some miscellaneous things, and seeing that an hour had passed, Tang Xiaoya finally couldn't help but tear away the topic.

"Mingxuan, when you were in the United States, did you often stay with Shen Mingfang? What kind of person is she? ”

Lu Mingxuan said without hesitation, "She is very capable, has a vision and courage in investment, and she can be called my predecessor in her work, and she has taught me a lot of things, and I am very grateful to her." ”

As a woman, to be able to stand at the top of the joint venture company, she naturally has to be an excellent talent. Needless to say, anyone can guess this, and it's not Tang Xiaoya's concern.

"What about life? As far as a woman is concerned. ”

"Xiaoya, have you heard any gossip, I really have nothing to do with her. You have to trust me. Lu Mingxuan paused, as if considering the wording, "She had a short marriage history of one year, and she was in a hurry to go to the United States back then, probably to escape that marriage." LATER, IN THE UNITED STATES, SHE FOUND OUT THAT SHE WAS PREGNANT, AND SHE INSISTED ON GIVING BIRTH TO HER DAUGHTER, WHO IS FOUR YEARS OLD THIS YEAR, NAMED SANDY. ”

I DON'T KNOW WHY, TANG XIAOYA FELT THAT LU MINGXUAN HAD A SPECIAL LOOK WHEN HE TALKED ABOUT SANDY. As soon as her eyes were closed, she could almost imagine him as a father, with a super good temper and a particularly spoiled kind.

"Mr. Shen sometimes brings SAND to the company, or participates in some private parties, the little guy is very cute, and his mouth is very sweet, which is really attractive."

With a smile on his lips, he seemed to be leisurely immersed in the past, and those memories, whether sweet or sad, had no place for her.

Tang Xiaoya suddenly hated herself, the two finally dated, why did they want to mention an irrelevant person, but now, they have forced themselves into a corner, trapped in a cage called jealousy and suspicion, scurrying left and right, unable to break free......
