Chapter 3: Brother

Pei Shanshan, who was following closely, stopped beside Zhou Cishen, opened his mouth and seemed to want to scold him, but he felt that the timing was not right, so he ran away.

Jiang Yan, who witnessed the whole process, laughed twice to alleviate the embarrassment: "Did I recognize the wrong person?" ”

Zhou Cishen doesn't like his wife, and it can even be said that he dislikes it, which is something that everyone in the whole circle knows.

So he usually doesn't take her out.

Jiang Yan had only seen Ruan Xingwan twice.

Once Zhou Cishen forgot to take the document, Ruan Xingwan was afraid of delaying his work, so he sent it to the company. In the face of Zhou Cishen's cold eyes, his little wife's face flashed with loss, but she didn't complain, she looked well-behaved and sensible.

One was Old Man Zhou's birthday banquet, which was the second year of Zhou Cishen and her marriage. The entire Zhou family didn't want to see her, and they didn't introduce her to anyone.

That night, Ruan Xingwan was like a servant hired by the Zhou family for no money, busy with everything, but he didn't get a good word, but he was disgusted and eyesore.

Later, she always stayed in the corner, and in the face of the ridicule of people with a heart, she did not refute, but just lowered her head silently and stayed away.

In Jiang Yan's memory, Zhou Cishen's wife is an angry little daughter-in-law who can't fight back and scold back.

Tonight, this woman who is menacing, as if she wants to chop someone to pieces, is definitely not her.

Zhou Cishen also looked at the direction in which Ruan Xingwan left and did not speak.

Jiang Yan coughed and diverted the topic: "I met Lins at the door when I came just now." ”

Zhou Cishen said casually: "Who." ”

"Editor-in-chief of Shengguang Jewelry."

"It's a bit impressive."

Zhou and Sheng Guang have cooperated, and Zhou Cishen has met their editor-in-chief several times.

Jiang Yan sighed: "Just now Lins told me that he found Ruan, and if nothing else, she will become a contracted designer of their magazine." Ruan, do you remember? ”

"I don't remember."

Why should he remember these irrelevant people.

Jiang Yan said: "You always remember the fact that I sponsored the 7th Emerging Designer Competition three years ago. Ruan won the first place in the competition that year, and she could have been sponsored by Zhou to go to Paris for further study, but she gave up this opportunity for unknown reasons. ”

"But I heard that she seems to have approached the person in charge of the competition, asking if she could study abroad and give her cash, and the person in charge asked you, but you refused. I haven't heard from her since, she's really a very aura designer, it's a pity. ”

Zhou Cishen slowly retracted his gaze, not knowing what he was thinking, and he didn't know if he had listened to what he had just said.

"Oh."

"Not impressed."

On the way back to see them off, Lin Si could obviously feel that Ruan Xingwan's mood was much worse than when he was eating.

He didn't want to ask directly, so he glanced at Pei Shanshan and raised his eyebrows to ask.

Pei Shanshan shook his head slightly, indicating that it was difficult to explain.

The car stopped downstairs, and Lin Si said, "Miss Ruan, I look forward to your work and our cooperation." ”

Ruan Xingwan's mood calmed down a lot at this time, retracted his thoughts, and nodded: "Thank you, Editor-in-Chief Lin, I will work hard." ”

Lins smiled: "Then I won't delay your time, go up quickly, see you next week." ”

Back home, Pei Shanshan said, "Xingxing, are you still angry about that pair of dog men and women?" ”

Ruan Xingwan was a little distracted, subconsciously "ah", and reacted for two seconds before saying, "No, I'm thinking about the work." ”

The theme that Lins gave her was "First Love", and Pei Shanshan said that this was also the first series that their magazine launched after signing a designer, focusing on the young market.

So, this work is very important to them.

But the word first love is too long ago for Ruan Xingwan and is already very vague.

The kind of beautiful throbbing that can only be seen when you get along with the person you like has long been grinding with the three years of marriage with Zhou Cishen.

Pei Shanshan said: "Speaking of this, I just wanted to ask you, have you and Ji Huaijian been in contact?" ”

Ruan Xingwan shook his head slightly.

Three years ago, she won first place in the Emerging Designers Competition, and she could have been offered the opportunity to study in Paris, but she declined.

Ji Huai saw that he had come to her several times and asked her why she didn't go.

There were doubts, loneliness, and disappointment in his expression.

But she never had the courage to tell him the truth and deleted all his contact information.

What can she say?

Do you want to tell him that on the night she won the first place in the competition, when she was shrouded in joy, she suddenly received the news that Ruan Jun owed a million loan sharks?

She didn't recover from the basin of cold water now.

Pei Shanshan sighed and leaned back on the sofa: "I still think it's a pity that you and Ji Huai met, at that time, you were a talented and beautiful couple in school, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that you liked each other, so you almost pierced the last layer of window paper." I thought you would be together when you went to Paris, but you didn't know what happened later...... Hey, fate makes people. ”

Ruan Xingwan was silent for a long time before saying, "It's all in the past." ”

Ruan Xingwan buried his head in the quilt, half-asleep and half-awake, and thought of something.

Three years ago, after learning that Ruan Jun owed a million loan sharks, she raised money everywhere, and even pulled down her dignity to ask the person in charge of the competition if she could go to Paris to study in a quota and give her cash.

She still remembers what the person in charge said: "Miss Ruan, I'm sorry, our boss said it." This opportunity is reserved for those who really have a dream of design, rather than those who take this competition as a business opportunity and want to make a profit from it. ”

After Ruan Xingwan heard this, he was stunned for a long time, went back and cried and scolded the so-called boss all night.

Who to look down on, who doesn't have a simple and unpretentious dream.

A few days later, Ruan Jun ran away, and the creditor came to the door and asked her to make a choice.

Either she chopped off one of her brother's hands, or she volunteered to leave with them.

Ruan Xingwan had no choice, ignoring Ruan Chen's hoarse shouts, and followed them out of the house without saying a word.

They sold her to twilight, a place for the rich to have fun, to drink and to be frustrated.

They drugged her wine.

Although she was ready to see death as home, when the middle-aged man in his forties and fifties with a fat face came in, she suddenly thought of Ji Huaijian and the Paris appointment that she had not completed.

Not knowing where the strength came from, she pushed away the middle-aged man and stumbled out.

There are always people chasing after you.

She didn't know how long she ran, and finally saw a tall and blurry figure in front of her, she fell to the ground, pulling the cuffs of his suit full of texture: "Please, save me......"
