Chapter 33: The Last Man You Want to See in This Life
"Dean, I have other things, so I won't go in." Xia Xiaoyu hurriedly walked up and said hurriedly: "Don't tell Ms. Xia that I have been here, I'm really embarrassed to have no time to see her." β
Xia Xiaoyu's abnormal mood made Li Ming very worried, and he asked with concern, "What's wrong?" Whispers. β
"Dean, I beg you, just because I haven't been here, okay?" Her voice trembled a little, and the faint light of the moon that had risen early reflected the pale face of her face, and it was evident that she was agitated with unease.
When she was a child, Xia Xiaoyu was strong and brave, she was as precocious as Xia Diudiu, with wisdom in her big clear eyes. She is not very gregarious, and most of the time she stands quietly and watches the children play.
Li Ming understands this girl, she is lonely and stubborn, if it weren't for something particularly important, she would never show her vulnerable side.
"Okay." He nodded solemnly, looked at her kindly, and said calmly, "If you feel tired, you can come back to the dean, the door of the Rainbow Orphanage is always open for you." β
Xia Xiaoyu nodded lightly and said meekly, "I know, I will always regard this place as my home." β
She glanced at the inner courtyard, the lights inside were on, and there were more cheers from the children, imagining the happy scene when the children received the gifts, Xia whispered a lot more relaxed.
"Say goodbye to grandpa." Xia whispered + one + this ~ read + novel + ybdu had no time to pay attention to Xia Diudiu's dissatisfied look, hugged him into the car, and left.
It's been five years, and she hasn't said hello to her in five years.
She will always remember that sunny morning, when Xia Nuan asked her to meet in the coffee shop next to the factory, it was the last time they met, and on the same day, her fate changed completely.
Xia Nuan is a very beautiful woman, in middle age, she still has charm, she is wearing a peony cheongsam on a white background, her hair is coiled on the top of her head, her fair neck is wearing a valuable pearl necklace, the earrings are cold and shining diamond earrings, her face is painted with delicate makeup, her slender and soft white ten fingers are dyed with cardamom, and Xia Xiaoyu, who is plainly dressed, is sitting in a small coffee house, which is very discordant.
"Whisper, are you going to work in this factory for the rest of your life?" Xia Nuan looked at her distressedly, eighteen years old, flower-like years, she was about to be buried by her in the days of 9 to 5, she couldn't bear it, it was all her own sin, she gave birth to her, but she didn't dare to recognize her.
"That's my business." Xia whispered and pulled the woolen pimples on her clothes, and said indifferently, her eyes didn't look at her from beginning to end.
"The monthly salary of 1,500 yuan is really too little." This is the guaranteed salary of the lowest people, and her daughter is willing to do this?
Xia whispered's lips raised slightly, her long eyelashes trembled, and she repeated indifferently: "That's my business." β
Xia Nuan pursed her lips and stared at the flesh and bones opposite, she was smaller than an eighteen-year-old girl, small, with a small face, delicate facial features, but faintly revealing the color of the dish, and a pitiful look of malnutrition.
After she worked, she refused to take a penny from her, with a monthly salary of 1,500 yuan, and a girl who could save money and save some of it, what did she eat three meals a day? What are you wearing? Xia Nuan almost couldn't bear to look at it directly.
After she gave birth to her, and then ruthlessly threw her to that man, she thought she could stop thinking about her, but how could the flesh and blood affection of the October pregnancy be so easy to get rid of? Upon learning that she had been sent to an orphanage, she immediately rushed there to work as a charity worker.
Regarding the mother-daughter relationship between them, she had no intention of telling her, if it weren't for the fact that on the day she was fifteen years old, she was drunk and spit out the truth and was discovered by her daughter, she would not have told this great secret, that is, from that moment on, her daughter, who had always been docile to her, changed her temperament greatly, withdrawn, indifferent, trance-like, and ignored her, and she didn't explain much to her, thinking that she would be considerate of herself when she grew up.
After graduating from high school, Xia Xiaoyu refused to study anymore, she found a job on her own, moved out of the small apartment she rented for her, and lived a self-supporting life.
"Whisper, don't hate your mother......"
"Can you not hate?" She said sharply: "You have a family, why do you have to give birth to me with another man?" Giving birth to me and not being able to give me a home, what is it to raise me secretly like this? β
Xia whispered's young face was full of hatred, she raised her eyes to stare at the noble and beautiful woman opposite, and said coldly: "You go, it's good to have no daughter like me, you don't have to worry about my life or death!" β
Hearing her daughter's ruthless words, Xia Nuan's elegant posture couldn't stand it, she moved her position, and said bitterly: "Don't be like this, whisper, my mother has my mother's difficulties." β
Eighteen years, how many days and nights, after giving birth to this daughter, how many wrinkles have been added to the corners of her eyes, how many gorgeous hairs have been added? Why can't she understand it?
"I know you're in trouble, isn't it good for you? I said that I don't need you to take care of it in the future, I don't need you to take care of it, what are you still doing with me? Xia whispered tightly in her grip on the coffee cup, trying her best to stabilize the turmoil in her heart.
Xia Nuan glanced at her sallow daughter, and finally spoke: "I just came today to see how you are doing, and I will go back to the United States tomorrow." β
She had a secret in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it, if her stubborn daughter knew her despicable thoughts, she would definitely chop her with a knife immediately.
"Oh." Xia Xiaoyu didn't show reluctance, responded lightly, then stood up, looked at her fixedly for a long time, and said coldly: "Today is our last meeting, and when we meet in the future, we will be strangers." β
"Don't!" When Xia Nuan heard her resolute words, her heart was sour, and tears fell: "Whisper, don't be like this, I'm your mother, how can you be so cruel to me?" β
Xia whispered a tearful woman, bit her lip tightly, and turned to leave.
She didn't go back to the factory, she was already absent from work anyway, so she just went out to get some air. She walked in a daze, thinking a lot in her heart, and at last sorrow prevailed over reasonβshe came into this world to be superfluous!
Behind her, I don't know when there was an indifferent man, he followed her to a street corner and stopped her.
"Miss, please come with me, my lord has something to look for you."
Ou Bolin wore glasses, a straight black suit, black leather shoes, his face was cold, and his momentum was extraordinary.
Seeing Xia Xiaoyu's fear, Ou Bolin smiled slightly and said kindly: "Miss, don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person." β
People are very strange animals, the difference between laughing and crying is that laughter gives people a very comfortable feeling, even if the other party can't smile to the bottom of the eye, it is more comfortable than having a strained face.
Xia whispered's nervous mood was immediately relieved a lot, and she looked at this strange man with doubts in her eyes.
"Come with me." The cold man pointed to a black business vehicle not far away and took the lead.
Xia whispered for a moment, thinking that he was poor and white, and this extraordinarily dressed man would definitely not have bad intentions, so he gritted his teeth and followed him into the car.
Xia whispered to the feeling of entering the Fortune Hotel, which was no different from the feeling of Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, all of which were surprised and breathtaking.
Old Man Shang held the president's office on the twentieth floor, looking at a large number of photos on the table with a serious expression, these photos were taken by the people he sent in the past two days, all about Xia Xiaoyu, various postures, various expressions.
Old Man Shang, who has seen all kinds of characters, doesn't have much affection for her, just because his daughter-in-law Zhong Hong chose her and designated her.
Xia Xiaoyu's identity background, he sent someone to check, it was an illegitimate daughter who was discarded, she grew up in a rainbow orphanage, she was delicate and had a lot of personality, he thought about it later, such a birth background was better, and after the matter was done, it was easier to send it away.
The bodyguard at the door walked in and told the old man that Assistant Ou had come with Xia Xiaoyu, and he hurriedly swept all the photos into the drawer, sat on the office chair and waited.
Xia Xiaoyu did not have the panic he imagined, her head did not hang as he imagined, she looked trembling, she looked up, looked around, her clear big eyes were dripping around, and when she saw the biao-shaped bodyguard at the door, she only stagnated slightly, and returned to normal.
She wore a T-shirt and jeans, her hair tied in a ponytail, and swayed on the back of her head, reminiscent of flags fluttering in the wind in the square.
She is not very beautiful, she is not tall, the most outstanding thing on her little face is the big eyes with God, and the skin, her skin is very delicate, there is not a single acne on her yellow and thin face, she gives people the feeling of being simple and clean, calm and stubborn - she has the courage to go with strangers, and there are very few girls who are so calm in front of him, Old Man Shang gasped, this girl in front of him is definitely not a master to be messed with!
But this is definitely a surrogate with good conditions!
"Miss Xia, please be seated." Old Man Shang walked out of the desk, pointed to the sofa on the side, and said without emotion.
Xia whispered without restraint, walked over with a big grin, sat down, picked up the tea on the table and drank it, she had been out for a long time, she was thirsty.
Old Man Shang twitched, and he couldn't help complaining in his heart about Zhong Hong, the illegitimate daughter he was looking for was uneducated, she didn't have a word, and she dared to be so presumptuous in front of him!
Xia whispered and drank most of the glass of water, wiped his mouth with his palm, looked directly at Old Man Shang, and asked, "Old man, I heard that you are looking for me?" β
She didn't like him. Rich people don't have the slightest respect in their eyes.
She could have been polite, but after seeing him, she didn't want to pretend. If you are not educated, you are not educated, anyway, he made this conclusion to himself at first sight, and there is no need for her to please him.
"Boleyn, go out and close the door." Old Man Shang gave orders, and Oberlin quickly walked out and closed the door.
