He Liancheng sat in the car and frowned, and suddenly asked, "Were the flowers in your office sent by Liu Tian?" โ
"He didn't send it." I didn't even think about it, but I didn't think that this answer would reveal a flaw in front of He Liancheng.
He asked rhetorically, "Who sent that?" โ
"Mystery Man." I spread my hands, "It started yesterday morning, I thought it was you." โ
He whispered and said, "I want to send red roses, tulips are such an ambiguous expression, not my style." "I'm noncommittal, the more I explain it, the darker it becomes.
"A woman is a disaster if she is good-looking, and no matter how good her ability to work, she is the center of men's eyes to follow when she goes there." He muttered a little unhappily.
I was angry and laughing, not wanting to be like him, so I didn't answer his words and turned my head to look out of the car. There are a lot of cars on the road, and it is very difficult to walk, stop and go. There was no car in the emergency lane at the very end, so he turned directly into the steering wheel, stepped on the accelerator and rushed forward.
"Boss, there are probes and police in front, do you want to find a punishment?" I immediately sat up straight and gave a reminder.
"What are you afraid of?" He muttered and drove on.
After saying nothing along the way, he quietly came to the small building, he opened the door and got out of the car, and I asked, "Do you still need to climb over the wall this time?" โ
"It's okay, you can flip it, I'll wait inside." He smiled suddenly, quickly opened the door and dodged in, I was locked out of the gate with high heels on my feet, unable to keep up with his speed.
Through the iron fence, he looked at me and said with a smile: "It looks very quiet on the surface, but it is very wild on the inside." โ
"I'm leaving." I think he's a little moody today, and he turns around and prepares to walk towards the small alley. His waist tightened, and his body was dragged into the yard by him, and his smiling eyes were close at hand.
"Others are inexplicably sending flowers and offering courtesy, can't I still eat a little vinegar? Shake your face with me? He pressed me.
"I didn't." I flatly deny it.
He tapped the tip of my nose and said, "I usually look very shrewd, but I don't dare to look into other people's eyes when I tell a lie." โ
Saying that, he pulled me into the house, and I felt that I was a little angry just now, so I smiled and said, "I can't drink with you for nothing, I have to ask for an appearance fee." He didn't speak, but took my hand and walked on.
After turning the hallway of the living room, I was dazzled by the candlelight, and I was stunned.
In the middle of the living room is vacated, and on the marble floor is a simple wooden table with a silver candlestick next to it that is made of pink candles in the shape of a heart.
The beating candlelight reflected in his eyes, an indescribable temptation.
He pulled me over, pulled out a chair for me himself, pressed my shoulder to sit me down, and then put it in my ear and said, "Wait a minute." โ
I sat in my chair and watched him go about his business, and tried to go over and help him wave his hand, and it didn't take long for him to magically bring out the well-cooked steak from the kitchen.
"What a surprise, you can cook?" I asked.
"I have something important to tell you today, so I want to be grand, and in order to show my sincerity, I will cook it myself." He put the utensils away and poured the red wine from the decanter.
"What's the matter?" I took the glass and touched it lightly with him and asked.
"I'll save the important things for last, let's talk about the headlines on last Saturday's front page." He sat across from me, pulled out a file bag from the table behind him, handed it to me, and said, "Take a look." โ
I put down my glass, took out the text inside and looked at it, and then asked with a little surprise, "How did you do that?" Find out who is behind it so quickly? โ
The information He Liancheng gave me was a confession from a photojournalist, which said how he was instructed by Chu Yi to deliberately follow us. I expected it to take a while to find out the news, but I didn't expect to shoot what I wanted to shoot that night.
"It's actually very simple, and when you have enough money, you find that it's not that complicated to get something done. I found this paparazzi yesterday, and he told everything, and he also pressed his fingerprints on it and signed it. He Liancheng said.
"What are you going to do next?" I asked.
"Treating others the way they do, I really don't believe that Chu Yi is such a clean person. There is no unscrupulous person in the business field, and I will also create some news for him, so that he can mess up his own house first. He Liancheng put the pile of things back and said, "Don't talk about him, try my craft." โ
He Liancheng's craftsmanship is good, the steak is fried tender and sweaty, and the heat is just right. He kept pouring wine during the meal, and drank a bottle of red wine in one steak. I put down the dishes, touched my hot face and said, "I drank too much, my face is so hot." โ
"Solemnly...... Say one thing. His face was also a little red, as if he had drunk too much.
"Don't do that, I'm a little nervous." I said as I brushed the hair that had fallen to the corners of my forehead.
"Have another drink and you'll not be nervous." He held the decanter with a white napkin and asked me to pour the wine again.
I picked it up and took a sip.
"To celebrate your first victory against the old man, this cup is to be drunk." I couldn't resist his laughter, and I raised my glass to him and drank it all.
The bottom of the cup clanged, and a sparkling diamond ring appeared in front of him. I picked it up with my hand and held it up in front of me, my face full of uncontrollable surprise. When I see such a plot on TV, I will comment: vulgar! That's because it didn't happen to me, and when it happened to me, the joy of the heart was almost flying out.
"Would you rather have a formal relationship with me and be my girlfriend?" He asked with a look of anticipation in his eyes.
"I ......," I hesitated with the ring. It's good to like diamond rings, but the meaning of diamond rings is not acceptable to everyone.
There is such a man in my life, and it is a lie to say that I am not moved. But I'm not a little girl who has not been deeply involved in the world. I know that some things can be done with hard work, and some things can't be done no matter how hard you try.
"I think it's okay for us to be friends, but if we want to be lovers, the gap between them is too big." I handed the ring back with some cruelty.
I watched the fire in his eyes dim little by little, and instead of taking the ring, he looked me in the eye and asked, "You are the first woman to refuse my father's offer and tell me the truth." The first woman I was moved by the joys and sorrows of others...... The first time I helped someone else take care of a child, the first time I was called dad by someone else's child, the first time I was worried about someone, the first time I begged my dad, the first time I meddled in his business, and the first time I fought for a woman...... Oh, twice for you and other men. If it's not love, I don't know what love is. โ
There was sadness and despair in his eyes, and a deep disdain. I was asked by him, and I didn't know what love was. All my love has been used up in the years that have been.
"Don't tell me about the status gap, that's not the reason. I don't care, what do you care? This is the second time I've officially asked a woman to be my girlfriend. The first time was to face Xue Ming, we have known each other since childhood, she is beautiful, cheerful, has a good family background, and is the dream lover in the hearts of all boys. She accepted it that time, grinned and said, try it for a while. Then ......" He Liancheng didn't continue.
"I'm sorry, but I'm not cruel to you, I'm not old enough to dream. I have two children, an ex-husband who is in a lawsuit, and I used to be a barmaid. Think about it, how big is the gap? I grabbed his cold hand that was on the table.
"What I want to ask is, I don't care about that, what do you care?" He Liancheng raised his head again, looked me in the eye and asked.
What do I care about? I care about getting hope and then being disappointed, I care about love and then getting hurt, I care about my own efforts in the end in exchange for a waste...... So I'm willing to wear a mask and go around with all the men on the party to earn my own pitiful living expenses, and I don't want to be honest and brave enough to face someone who is good to me.
"Don't say you don't have feelings for me. A truly emotional kiss is not the same as a scene play, when I kiss you, your reaction tells me, you are also moved by me, you have me in your eyes. As he spoke, he shook off my hand and stood up, leaned over across the table, stared me in the eye and asked, "Do you dare me to kiss you?" โ
"I don't dare." I immediately refused.
"Aren't you the best at making a scene? As your patron, you've never done this kind of play to me. How about a one? He picked up the rose ring on the table, threw it in front of me and said, "Cartier's collection of five-carat diamond rings, the market price is 3.8 million, is it enough to buy you to accompany me for one night?" "He was so close to me that I could see the dark red in his eyes and the faint bulging bruises on his forehead.
"What are you doing?" I took a step back.
"Knowing that you never (leave) the stage, I want to buy your first (pick-up) customer, this money should be enough." His tone was cold.
I just felt my heart crumpled up, and there was a blunt knife slashing back and forth on it, and it almost shrank back and forth in pain. I stood up in a hurry and hurried towards the door.
The chair was brought down by me with a loud bang, and before I could turn around, his wrist was tightly grabbed by him, and his hot lips pressed against his earlobe and said, "Since you don't accept me emotionally, let's do business." โ
"You bastard, let me go." I cursed, desperately backing away, trying to break free of his grip. His hand was so strong that it hurt to hold my wrist. I struggled for a long time, not only did I not break out, but I was held in his arms.
His chin was pressed against the top of my head, and he said in a deep, nasal voice, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you, I just said those words in a hurry." โ
The tears I had been holding back for a long time came to me when I heard this sorry sentence. If I am misunderstood by others, I will be scolded back at most, or I will be slapped twice. But when he said this, I felt like I was being put on a mountain of knives, full of pain, and I didn't know how to escape.
I quieted down in his arms, he turned me around, stared at me with red eyes, reached out to help me wipe a handful of tears, and whispered, "Those reasons for your rejection of me are not reasons, can you tell me what are you afraid of?" โ
I was hit in the soft underbelly by him, looked up at him with teary eyes, and whispered, "I'm afraid that the last qiฤ will become empty...... You know, I'm a failed woman who can't hold anything......"
"Are you still thinking about Chu Yi?" He asked rhetorically.
I shook my head, and I saw a pair of red eyes approaching, his hot lips gently covering mine
