At this time, half an hour has passed since the appointed time, and the man has never appeared, Xia Chu finally couldn't help but take out his mobile phone to ask the other party, but the phone was dialed, but it prompted that the other party had turned off the phone, which made Xia Chu suddenly have a bad premonition, but what it was, she couldn't say.

She wanted to leave, but looking at the black leather bag under her feet, thinking about the man's greedy face, she thought that a person like him would not refuse the temptation of 5 million, right? If he shows up after he leaves, won't this deal be a wasted deal? If he doesn't believe what he says and breaks the news to the media...... At the beginning of the summer, he didn't want to see that happen, so he had to wait.

From 3 to 4, from 4 to 5, 6, 7...... The coffee in front of me has been changed countless times, and the lights outside the window have been turned on, Xia Chu finally gave up and admired his good concentration, when he called the waiter to settle the bill, the phone rang, Xia Chu thought it would be the man, but it was Shao Yunqi calling, she paid the bill while pressing the answer button:

"Yunqi."

"How's it going? I should have called you a long time ago, but it was too busy in the afternoon, so it was a bit delayed. ”

Xia Chu smiled bitterly:

"The other party didn't show up."

"What's going on?"

"I don't know, maybe I've been tricked, right?" Although I don't want to admit this fact, at this moment, who can deny this fact: "Yunqi, you let people say hello to newspapers and magazines and other media, these photos can't be leaked." ”

"I know, so what are you going to do now? Do you want me to pick you up? ”

At the beginning of summer, take a look at the time:

"No need, I'm tired, I want to go home first, and the money will be delivered to your company tomorrow when I go to work."

"Okay, then you go home and rest early."

ended the call, and Xia Chu took a taxi home with a heavy bag, but what she didn't expect was that there was a storm waiting to sweep her through this home that made her feel warm.

The atmosphere at home is a little depressing, this is the first feeling at the beginning of summer, although she has not met anyone since she came in, but she has this feeling inexplicably head-on, which makes her a little inexplicable but has to be careful, inadvertently saw the housekeeper walking by, she hurriedly called:

"Butler."

The housekeeper stopped when he heard the voice, and when he saw that it was the beginning of summer, he walked over:

"Mrs. Qiao, what do you command?"

"Is Jo Yusen there?"

"Sir is upstairs."

Xia Chu nodded, and when he wanted to go upstairs, he suddenly thought of something and stopped: "Has anything happened at home?" ”

The housekeeper didn't quite understand what Xia Chu meant, and looked at her suspiciously:

"What do you mean, Mrs. Joe?"

Xia Chu felt that he might be a little nervous and thinking too much, so he smiled lightly: "It's okay, maybe I'm thinking too much." ”

After she finished speaking, she went upstairs, but this time the butler stopped her:

"Madame Joe, please stay."

Xia Chu had to stop and look back at the housekeeper: "Is there anything else?" ”

"This afternoon, Mr. Qiao received a courier."

At the beginning of summer, I was a little confused, received a courier? Is there anything special?

The housekeeper seemed to see Xia Chu's doubts, so he continued: "After the express was opened, Mr. Qiao's face was not very good, and then he went upstairs and locked himself in the study alone, and he didn't eat dinner. ”

In this way, the feeling at the beginning of summer is not that I am thinking too much or nervous, and the atmosphere is really depressing.

"Do you know what that courier is?"

"It's some pictures."

"Photos?" Xia Chuxin suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Yes, but I don't know what the content of the photo is, I originally wanted to go upstairs and continue to persuade Mr. Qiao, but since Madame is back, I would like to ask Madame to persuade Mr. Qiao to eat a little."

Xia Chu nodded a little far-fetched:

"I will, I'll call you if there's something, you go down first."

"Yes, Mrs. Joe."

After the housekeeper left, Xia Chu was finally able to go upstairs, this time no one stopped her from saying anything, but she didn't know that a feeling suddenly appeared, which made her go up with some fear, as if there would be something particularly bad and affect her mood, but she couldn't escape, Qiao Yusen was still upstairs, she had to go and see.

Pushing open the door of the study, it was filled with smoke, Xia Chu was caught off guard, choked and began to cough, she didn't know that Qiao Yusen was still smoking so fiercely, if he wasn't sure that he was inside, Xia Chu almost thought it was on fire.

She stood at the door coughing heartbreakingly, but she didn't see Qiao Yusen come out, she slowed down for a while before stopping, but she didn't have the heart to go in:

"Jo Yusen, are you in there?"

She was answered by silence.

But Xia Chu just knew that he was there, he must be inside, otherwise would these choking smoke be produced by himself? Do you believe it? Anyway, the beginning of summer won't believe it.

She shouted again, and the answer she got was not different from the previous one, although she was unwilling, although she hated it, but Xia Chu still covered her nose and entered the study, and after taking a few steps forward, she waved away the smoke in front of her, and she finally saw the decadent, slightly embarrassed man sitting on the chair in front of the desk, Qiao Yusen.

He was still smoking, and there was a big fire in Xia Chuchu, so he stepped forward and snatched the cigarette from his hand and extinguished it in the ashtray:

"Jonathan Johnson, if you want to kill yourself, can you choose a better way?"

Qiao Yusen seemed to realize that there was a person standing in front of him at this moment, and then it took him at least 10 seconds to determine that the person in front of him was his wife, Xia Chu.

In the end, he laughed, a smile that made people feel no temperature, it was the first time that Xia Chu saw this almost desperate aura on Qiao Yusen's body, she suddenly had a feeling that Qiao Yusen's abnormality was related to herself, but what was it for, she couldn't get an answer for a while, the housekeeper said that he began to change because he saw those photos, but what was on the photos that made him so out of control? I haven't done anything to be sorry for him.

"Jo Yusen, there should always be a reason for your self-defeating posture, right?"

Qiao Yusen finally stopped laughing, and then he stood up from the chair, I don't know if he was because he had been sitting for too long, or if he had drunk, in short, his body was shaky, and he was not very steady, and at the beginning of the summer, he had an urge to go over and support him, but before she could move, Qiao Yusen had already supported the edge of the table and stabilized his body, and Xia Chu had to retract his movements.

Xia Chu thought that Qiao Yusen would say something to himself, but he didn't even say anything, didn't even look at himself, and walked out by himself, as if he had become a virus in his eyes, which made him avoid it, or the air, he couldn't see it at all.

His approach made Xia Chu a little aggrieved, no matter what happened before, he would always say something to himself, even if it was concealed, he would tell himself directly, and he would not tell himself, but this time, he didn't even give himself a look.

Xia Chu is not unable to tolerate the neglect of others, not that she can't tolerate the disrespect of others for herself, because she understands very well that it is impossible for a person to live in the world to be liked by everyone, if you are a good person, it will make the bad people hate you, and if you are a bad person, it will make the good people hate you, this is an inevitable phenomenon, and she has never pursued this kind of perfection.

It's just that at this moment, she can't accept Qiao Yusen's behavior, she can't tell what the reason is, and she also wants to find a why, but after looking for it, there is only one reason to convince herself, because he is Qiao Yusen, and he is his husband.

When Xia Chu also walked out of the study, she happened to see Qiao Yusen's figure disappearing at the door of the master bedroom, and the breath in her heart made her chase after her without thinking, she was not an unreasonable woman, but at this moment she desperately wanted an answer.

When Xia Chu pushed open the door, she knew that even if Qiao Yusen walked in, he didn't turn on the light, it was pitch black, making it impossible to distinguish the direction, she walked in cautiously, felt the switch on the wall, and then turned it on, the moment the light fell down, Xia Chu saw Qiao Yusen on the bed subconsciously frowned, and then raised his arm above his eyes, so the sudden light made him a little uncomfortable.

Closing the door, Xia Chu walked over, and wanted to lose his temper regardless of it, but when he saw Qiao Yusen, who was so physically and mentally exhausted, the fire in his heart had already gone for most of it, although he knew that he was not asleep, he still walked over lightly and sat down beside him:

"Jo Yusen, what's wrong with you?"

Jo Yusen still didn't answer.

"The housekeeper said, you became a little unhappy because you received a courier, what's inside?"

Silent.

"I was fine before we separated, but why did I completely change after only a few hours of not seeing each other? It's so easy for you to make me think too much, is it something that has something to do with me? ”

Xia Chu kept his tone as low as possible, and even wanted to try to comfort him, but after a few consecutive questions, Qiao Yusen still gave himself only silence.

This made Xia Chu's anger that he had finally suppressed ignited in an instant, Qiao Yusen's posture made her want to explode, but the fatigue of today's day also made Xia Chu a little tired of arguing, if this is what Qiao Yusen wants, then he will give it to him, he doesn't want to talk to himself, he doesn't want to say it, he doesn't want to see himself, just go by himself.

Thinking of this, Xia Chu got up from the bed and walked to the door without saying hello.

Qiao Yusen listened to the footsteps getting farther and farther away, and finally had a little reaction, he withdrew his arm, opened his eyes and looked at Xia Chu's back, and sneered:

"Are you a thief?"
