Chapter 161: Progress in the Cause
As soon as I said this, Xu Shu calmed down. With a little helplessness in her eyes, she looked at me and said with an indifferent attitude: "I will think about my own affairs, and you don't need to worry about me." Do you think that your own business is not troublesome enough now, and you still want me to cause trouble for you again? ”
I was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Xu Shu, the only thing I am not in vain is that these troubles were completely avoidable at the beginning. You have me in your heart, why did you run away from me at that time? And now I can't let go of Jingjing, but you let me know that you love me. Isn't that messing with me? Do you think that when I know this, my heart will be happy? Don't you see how many gray hairs I have on my head, all because of you? ”
After saying something, Xu Shu lowered his head, and he had nothing to say for a long time. After a while, she raised her head, her gaze had become firm, and she smiled slightly, "I'm sorry for bothering you, but I have to say now, in fact, I can't figure out whether I like you or not." Do you see if I ever said I love you? That day in Beverly Hills was just an impulse caused by the environment and the atmosphere, and that kiss didn't mean anything. If you misunderstood because of this, then I'll say I'm sorry to you. ”
I couldn't believe my ears, this ...... Could it be Xu Shu's true words?
I watched her expression carefully, trying to read her mind in her gaze. I don't believe she was at the top of Beverly that night, she was just on the spur of the moment. Every scene and every line of dialogue that night was deeply imprinted in my mind. At that time, I deeply felt her affection and her helplessness, and that complex mentality was by no means something that could be expressed under impulse. And I also know very well that Xu Shu is by no means that kind of person, and he is definitely not a person who boldly reveals himself without even knowing whether he loves others or not. Maybe she was impulsive that night, but what she really showed under the impulse should be her long-suppressed feelings, which should be the most real her and the most real feelings. I am convinced of that.
But now, why did Xu Shu say that? I stared at her, and she couldn't hold out for more than two seconds before she looked away.
I suddenly understood that the purpose of Xu Shu's words was to let me cut off all illusions, settle down, and be with Hua Jingjing with all my heart. All the things that happened in the past were treated as a beautiful mistake, as if it were just a dream.
I can even feel that when Xu Shu said this, the pain in her heart was no less than mine. And, in this case, what else could she say but say that?
My mood darkened, and I smiled wryly, "Really? Got it, it turned out ...... It's just impulsive! ”
Xu Shu bit his lower lip, tilted his head and did not speak. I have a lot to say, but when you think about it, it's superfluous to say anything. Even if I have 10,000 choices, I can't help but choose Jingjing. My fate has long been sealed.
It is undoubtedly a great pain that people who love each other cannot be together. I saw a tear quietly slipping down the corner of Xu Shu's eyes. These tears had made everything clear, and I felt my heart contract violently, and the pain in my whole body was as heavy as the boundless ocean. For a moment, I felt an unbearable tingle.
I know in my heart that I feel this way, it's not that I don't love Jingjing anymore, my love for Jingjing is still very deep. But my love for her is completely different from my love for Xu Shu, and I am more of a mature relationship after going through ups and downs, with a sense of responsibility and fate. As for Xu Shu, that is the fascination with the goddess of perfection, there is no reason to talk about it, dreamy, with a bit of fairy tale color.
And this world is realistic after all, Jingjing and I ...... There is no turning back.
All of a sudden, I was so sad that I wanted to cry. But I laughed softly, stretched out a finger, I gently wiped the tears that had just slipped from her face, and smiled: "It's me who is not good, I shouldn't ask this question." We've all already made our choices, haven't we? ”
Xu Shu still didn't answer, I knew she was sad and didn't want to stimulate her anymore. He sighed softly: "I'll go back, remember, we will always be best friends." There's something we'll bury deep in our hearts, okay? ”
Xu Shu finally turned his head to me, and his resentful eyes made people unbearable to look at it anymore. My heart trembled, I gritted my teeth, and walked past her! Prepare to open the door and get out of here.
As soon as he opened the door, he suddenly heard Xu Shu behind him: "Are you leaving like this?" What about my sister? What do you do to her? ”
I stopped, thought for a moment, and said, "Xiao Xin will understand when she grows up." I can't do anything right now, so I don't have to explain it. With that, I left the study and walked quickly downstairs.
As soon as he walked out of the gate of the villa, Xiao Xin's voice suddenly came from above: "Brother Tang Qian, are you leaving?" ”
I looked up and saw a window on the third floor open, and Xu Xin leaned out half of her body and called me. I laughed, waved at her, and said, "yes! You're all right, of course I'm going home. Don't be so naughty and deceitful in the future, or I won't like you. ”
Xu Xin put her chin on the palms of her two hands and propped it up in front of the windowsill, and she said faintly: "Brother Tang Qian, you ...... Have you ever liked me? ”
I opened the car door, looked up at her, and said, "Of course, Brother Tang Qian has always liked you. ”
"But what I want is not the kind of like you say!"
I was speechless, so I had to wave my hand again, and sat in the car without answering, I was just about to close the door, and I heard Xu Xin shouting upstairs: "In five years, I will definitely come to you!" "Maybe she knows I'm gone, and she may not see me for a long time. When Xu Xin shouted this, he was already crying slightly.
I feel sad again, these two sisters just can't let me leave with peace of mind! I couldn't help but look up again, and when I saw Xu Shu standing behind her sister at some point, Xu Xin cried and turned her head and threw herself into her sister's arms.
"After the whole summer, the sorrow was not better. Driving through the endless kilometers of endless driving, there is a feeling of leaving yourself. I can't finish singing a song, and I'm tired and only have dark circles under my eyes. The world of feelings is inevitably hurt, and no matter how beautiful the dusk is, it will eventually be dark. I still remember saying goodbye from your mouth as resolutely as iron, and there was a burning feeling in the darkness. The horizon of dusk draws a parting, and love enters the eternal night. I still remember the tears that slipped from your eyes and the heartbreak, and there was an illusion of hot tears burning in the chaos. The horizon of dusk, cutting off the joy of happiness, love has been disillusioned......"
As I drove down the mountain road, the radio came to me with this song that I didn't know who sang it, and it made people feel so sad that I couldn't do more. I listened and listened, and before I knew it, I burst into tears.
I know I'm really, really, forever losing something......
When I got home, I cleaned up a little and got my emotions under control. Then I told my parents about Jingjing. They are very happy and plan to buy some good food tomorrow to entertain their future daughter-in-law. Only Tang Ying is not satisfied, I know that except for her idol Xu Shu, she will not be happy if anyone is her sister-in-law.
After that, everything went well, and Jingjing came to see my parents the next day, as promised, and my mother was so happy that she took out a large gold ring that she had pressed at the bottom of the box for decades and gave it to her as a gift. Of course, Hua Jingjing has nothing at home? She would have scared my mother to death if she offered a piece of jewelry. However, Jingjing was still very excited and happy, because she knew that only my mother's daughter-in-law was eligible to wear this ring. After she put it on as a treasure, she kept showing off in front of me.
A week later, I booked a restaurant in the symbolic part of the Prince Hotel, where I met with Jingjing's parents and made a wedding date, and we would get married as soon as Jingjing returned with her PhD.
Since then, I have been with Jingjing all day except for work, but the happy day always passes very quickly, and soon Jingjing will fly back to the United States to continue her studies. And my sister also took a plane south to study in Xiamen.
Before my sister left, I bought her a mobile phone and a laptop. In the past, my brother was poor and couldn't afford to buy what she liked, but now that she has two dollars, I have to make up for everything I owed her before.
On the third day after her sister left, Jingjing also took an international flight back to the United States. Although we were reluctant to give up this time, our mood was completely different from before. We're still going to be apart this time, but we're in touch every day. With the development of modern technology, the earth has become a village, and we will soon be able to meet as long as we want.
The weather is still hot, but the season has entered the golden autumn. The company's board of directors rejected Hua Qiming's intention to cooperate, and Hua Qiming's family was big and he didn't care.
At the end of September, Cheng Gong was responsible for the introduction of Ye Jian Xiang refreshing tea drink, which was quickly put into the market. Three different beverages are also about to be developed, and the company is gradually evolving from a small company with a single product to a large company with multiple varieties and diversified development.
As soon as the company's affairs were busy, Fan Yunting Fan seemed to have forgotten to ask me for photos, as if her parents were not in a hurry to urge her. I've forgotten all about it.
The company is growing faster and faster, and there are more and more employees. The rented three floors were no longer enough, and the ambitious Fan Yunting planned to buy land in the suburbs to build an office building and centralize all the factories, although this would require a lot of money. However, with Xu Shu's second payment of 30 million yuan and the company's current good situation, the bank is also willing to lend support.
I was busy with the harvest of Yejian fragrant tea in the coming year, and we reached an agreement with the local government axe that our company would be responsible for the full development and planting of tea trees, and of course we gave the local people a very generous reward.
Xu Shu's movie was released all over the world, and it was no surprise that it caused a sensation. Xu Shu quickly conquered the hearts of men all over the world with his excellent acting skills and stunning beauty. The October issue of Time magazine in the United States chose a still from Xu Shu as the cover, marking that she has officially entered the ranks of international superstars.
In November, Xu Shu began an all-Asia concert tour, including Singapore, Tokyo, Seoul...... For a while, men all over Asia were crazy about Xu Shu, and everywhere she went, she set off a whirlwind of Xu Shu, and her acting career climbed to a new peak.
At the end of December, Xu Shu released her new album "Wild Love", which quickly topped the record charts, sold 3 million copies worldwide, and continued to challenge new records. Three songs on the album squeezed into the top 10 of the weekly singles chart. The single "Wild Love" topped the charts for ten weeks.
Soon, 2002 passed, and people stepped into a new year. There has been a lot of progress in this year, including me.
First of all, I bought a high-end apartment for my parents in Willow Lake Garden, and the down payment and decoration cost me 300,000 yuan. The two old men have endured a lifetime of hardship, and they should also enjoy the blessings.
Secondly, the company's address has been chosen, and it is only necessary to wait for the New Year to break ground. Mr. Fan's Hyundai car was finally replaced, and she bought a BMW sports car, which was sold to Qian Xiaolei, the company's financial director.
Qian Xiaolei divorced her husband for some reason. It is said that when a man is rich, he becomes bad, but does a woman change when she is rich?
But in any case, the past year has been a successful one, and we have built our own company and business from scratch, from small to large. My relationship has also found a home, and in the past six months, I have a stable relationship with her, talking regularly and telling each other about our work and study.
So such a successful year we should celebrate, the first night of the 03rd year, heavy snowfall. The company held a banquet in Huibin Building and invited all the company's formal employees.
This night, I couldn't stand so many employees taking turns to toast, although I cheated and stole in the meantime. And I went to the bathroom and threw up three times, but in the end I was still drunk. Before this, Fan Yunting was already drunk and unconscious.
When I woke up again, I found that Mr. Fan was lying next to me, and it was still in my home, in my bed. It really scared the hell out of me. When did I come home? Why is Mr. Fan at my house?
However, her clothes were intact, but there were traces of vomiting on her chest, and she was sleeping soundly next to me, which made me sigh. At the moment I had a splitting headache, thirst was unbearable, and my temples were still beating. I staggered and struggled to get out of bed to pour a glass of water to drink, but because my feet were weak and I couldn't hold the hot water bottle steadily, I poured boiling water on my hand.
I screamed at the boiling water, and the thermos fell to the ground and broke as soon as I let go. I heard someone in the bathroom exclaim, "What's wrong?" Tang Qian, what's wrong with you? ”
