Chapter 079: Struggling in the Cracks
When ordinary men hear this kind of words from their lovers, they will probably be embarrassed, or they will be bored with their lover's ignorance, but when Ye Shucheng heard this, he just looked excited and let go of Su Nian.
I really can't chat, you can go back. ”
Su Nian pouted, went out to say hello to An Ziyan, and then returned to the design department.
In the elevator, I couldn't help but raise the corners of my mouth, horticultural expo, it's good.
Other than that......
Looking at Ye Shucheng's reaction, there must be a problem between him and Xu Jinghe, he said before that he had not kissed Xu Jinghe, but now, it is obvious that the relationship between him and Xu Jinghe is definitely not the mode of getting along between ordinary couples.
She was actually a little curious, what did Xu Jinghe come to her this morning to say.
However, she believes that Xu Jinghe will come again soon.
……
Seeing Ye Shucheng come out of the lounge with a black face, An Ziyan smiled slyly: "It's really fast, Mr. Ye, it's only been less than twenty minutes since you went in......"
Ye Shucheng glanced at him, "Don't talk about business?" ”
Talk, I want to talk," An Ziyan quickly sat up straight, "But I want to talk about gossip before talking about business." Do you really plan to continue to raise Su Nian? Not afraid of accidents? ”
He walked over and sat down in a chair, took a cigarette from the table and smoked one, "What will happen?" ”
capsized the boat," An Ziyan narrowed his expression, "Do Su Nian and Xu Jinghe know each other's existence now?" ”
The lighter "snapped", and in the blue flames, a wisp of white smoke slowly floated up, Ye Shucheng squinted, "Su Nian knows, Jinghe doesn't know yet." ”
An Ziyan was dumbfounded, "Su Nian knows that he is still willing to follow you?" ”
No...... I threatened her with her career, and I told her that if she left,., she liked design too much, but her qualifications were far from good, and no one in the industry would accept her if she went out. ”
Ye Shucheng's words were calm, and An Ziyan was completely stunned when he listened.
This is not like what Ye Shucheng would do, not to mention, it is still for a woman, he feels that he doesn't know Ye Shucheng very well.
You haven't thought about what Xu Jinghe will do after she finds out? ”
Ye Shucheng took a deep breath of his cigarette, his eyebrows blurred a little behind the smoke, "It's going to make trouble, just let her make trouble, it's also an opportunity, I always felt that she didn't know what kind of person I was, love at first sight when I was a teenager, can I be unforgettable to this point?" I can't understand, maybe she has always believed, that her feelings for me are inherently biased, and I don't deserve her like this. ”
An Ziyan didn't know what to say, "You have thought clearly, if this continues, Su Nian and Xu Jinghe will be hurt, and you won't be better, other people's homes are all prosperous and outside, but if you give yourself too many shackles, it will only become a struggle in the cracks, and in the end, you may not be able to keep anything." ”
Ye Shucheng tugged at the corners of his lips, "You're here to teach me?" ”
An Ziyan shook his head and opened the product brochure, he didn't want to say it, what Ye Shucheng decided, no matter how much others said, it was useless.
He was just a little worried, with Ye Shucheng's personality, it was already very abnormal to do these things, but people had not really let go of the step that they could be at ease by brazenly stepping on two boats, on the contrary, he could see that the current Ye Shucheng was obviously biased towards Su Nian's side, and was bound by his gratitude and guilt for Xu Jinghe, this is a dead end, and it will only make the three of them miserable.
……
Xu Jinghe did not go to work at Jinghe Jewelry, and after she came out, she walked aimlessly on the street for a long time.
The kiss mark on Ye Shucheng's neck has always been in her mind, she seems to have been hit by a magic barrier, and she can't shake her head, she is so uncomfortable, she has obviously seen it, but she doesn't even have the courage to ask.
There was a couple of flirting lovers walking past on the side of the road, the girl seemed to be a little annoyed by something, the boy took the person in his arms quite strongly, and then kissed the girl's face quickly, and said something in the girl's ear, making the girl blush. Laughing again.
Xu Jinghe saw it, stopped in his footsteps, and stared at it in a daze for a while, until the girl found out, pulled the boy away with a look of disgust, and looked back at Xu Jinghe as if she was looking at a neuropath.
Xu Jinghe turned to look at the young back, tears rolling in her eyes.
Other people's love is like this, why is she so unbearable, she is all directed and acted by herself, but she doesn't dare to complain, Ye Shucheng's feelings for her are based on gratitude and guilt, not love, she can use his heart to make up for and thank her to keep him by her side, she thought that there would always be a long-term love if she continued to work hard, she thought that since he was willing to accept it, he would fall in love with her sooner or later, but how long? She didn't know.
Before that, she didn't know how long she would have to live like this one-man show.
She gave Ye Shucheng enough space, but she suffered herself.
She stood in the crowded street, wiping the corners of her eyes, and suddenly heard someone calling her name.
Jing He, Jing He...... Is that you? ”
She turned her head to look over, a middle-aged man limping around the corner of the street, his clothes were old-fashioned, and his hair was washed white, and he was surprised when he saw her, and his eyes lit up: "It's really you!" Jinghe, where have you been all these years, why haven't you contacted your family, do you know ......?"
Xu Jinghe took a step back vigilantly, her face stiffened, and the middle-aged man had stopped in front of her, taking her hand as he spoke.
Don't touch me! ”
She shook it off, and the man looked at her in amazement.
After a long time, the man took his hand back, "Jinghe...... You're still blaming Dad, aren't you? ”
You're not my father, I don't have a father," Xu Jinghe's emotions were a little out of control, and his voice was sharp, "Don't say you're my father!" ”
The man's face turned pale instantly, "Jinghe, I know you're angry, but ......"
Don't say it, I don't want to listen to your nonsense, haven't you hurt me enough? If you still have a conscience, don't show up in front of me again! ”
After speaking, Xu Jinghe turned around and ran, almost forgetting where he was in a hurry, and rampage in a panic. I didn't even look at the traffic light, and suddenly there was a terrible sound of brakes.
Everything in front of her became very slow, very slow, she felt pain in a trance, and fell into an embrace, followed by overwhelming darkness.
……
Su Nianda has been silly since she returned to the office, how could she ever look at her smirk and really couldn't look past it, patted her head, "Drawing, what are you laughing at!" ”
Su Nian couldn't help it, lowered his voice and said to He Zeng: "Master He, there is good news, great news." Listen or not? ”
She wanted to share the news so much that she couldn't find anyone else but He Zeng.
He Zeng remembered that not long after she came out of Ye Shucheng's office, she also lowered her voice and asked, "What's the matter, Mr. Ye decided to choose you?" ”
Su Nian's face stiffened, "Will you chat, which pot is not opened." ”
Then you're a fart. ”
Su Nian twisted his eyebrows, "Master He, I'm talking about business, business, work." ”
He Zeng squinted at her.
Su Nian pulled him by the collar and lowered him a little, and his voice was even quieter: "A horticultural expo project, although it has not been decided, but it is said that our department will participate in the bidding." ”
He was stunned. "Really?"
The horticultural expo is not a small project, and after that, I have never seen such a big project, which is a little surprising.
Mr. Ye said it, but he said that he would report it in the near future, and he would focus on it, and I haven't asked about it in detail. ”
She thought about it, and originally wanted to ask in detail tonight, but she felt that this was a bit inappropriate for He Zeng, so she said, "I'll go back and ask about the situation again." ”
Ye Shucheng would tell her that it shouldn't be a big problem, and she was very confident, "I don't think Mr. Ye will talk nonsense, maybe there will be an official notice soon, and it is impossible for our department to have no movement at all for such a big project." ”
He Zeng was skeptical, after all, there was no news from any formal channels at present, Su Nian was at most gossip, it was a little too early for him to be happy, he gently poked Su Nian's head, "Then you hurry up, don't have a project, you can't get anything decent, then it's troublesome." ”
Su Nian touched his head, smirked, and returned his gaze to the computer screen. Start drawing in earnest.
……
An Ziyan's sudden visit disrupted part of Ye Shucheng's plan, and the two of them spent half an afternoon discussing the import channels of that batch of rough stones, and at three o'clock, Ye Shucheng looked at his watch and said to An Ziyan: "No, I still have something to do, I have to go out, I will get here here today, and you will make the rest." ”
An Ziyan was anxious, "How can you do half of the words, you just ruled out one, and there are two left, such a big case, forget where you go, I'll follow you, let's talk on the way." ”
Ye Shucheng thought about it, and it seemed that there was no other way, so he took An Ziyan with him and explained to An Ziyan where to go on the way.
The destination is a little far, it is the Jincheng Urban Construction Bureau, Ye Shucheng contacted the project of this horticultural expo, but because it is a municipal project, there are many relationships that need to be dredged, and there are many ways to run, and the registration process to participate in the bidding is even more complicated than that of private enterprises, despite this. It is conceivable that there will be no fewer companies to participate in the bidding, and he wants to seize the opportunity, so he reported to the architectural design department, so he made an appointment to talk this afternoon.
An Ziyan heard this and was very excited, "Such a big matter, why don't you tell me, I can give you ideas and find someone for you!" ”
Ye Shucheng glanced at him lightly in the car, "I can do it myself." ”
An Ziyan asked again: "You didn't seem to spend so much effort in the architectural design department before, but now it's because of Su Nian?" ”
Ye Shucheng didn't speak.
An Ziyan said: "But isn't your focus now on Jinghe jewelry?" I remember that you planned it before, you can't put two key points at the same time, plus the company's original business, your energy will be scattered, you also follow the list of Jinghe jewelry, and now you still run the project of the horticultural expo yourself, can you hold on? ”
An Ziyan didn't expect these Ye Shucheng to say, he propped his hand on the side of the car window, pressed his eyebrows, and his mind swept over Su Nian's face.
She smiled when she heard the news, and as he thought, she was genuinely happy.
If you can make her happy, it's worth it to be tired.
He said: "Jinghe Jewellery now has a mature business to support, but the horticultural expo project is ...... After all, this is a municipal project, the competition for bidding will be fierce, the architectural design department itself is not mature enough, if you can win this project, you can jump to the front line in one fell swoop, and the establishment of a branch can be much smoother, I don't want to give up this opportunity. ”
An Ziyan nodded, "Then, what about your tailor-made brand building plan for Xu Jinghe?" ”
Jinghe jewelry can wait, the project of the horticultural fair is not available every day, this is a rare opportunity. After a pause, he said, "Don't ask again." ”
An Ziyan really didn't ask again, Rita was driving in the front seat, and the silence in the carriage was tacit.
An Ziyan thought, it's troublesome.
A person lacks skills, and Ye Shucheng is forcing himself to a dead end. Now it's overwhelmed.
After being silent for a few minutes, Ye Shucheng's mobile phone rang, he felt it out and looked at it, it was Xu Jinghe's phone, remembered the unpleasant conversation in the morning, and sighed before answering.
The carriage was small and quiet, and An Ziyan also heard the voice coming from the other end of the phone.
Hello, Mr. Ye is it? This is the municipal hospital, there is a Ms. Xu Jinghe who was in a car accident, and the last contact is you, are you her friend......"
Ye Shucheng's face changed slightly, "Yes, where is she." How's it going? ”
Someone saved her, but she was still injured, and now she is still unconscious......"
Which ward? ”
The other party reported the ward number, and after the phone hung up, An Ziyan didn't dare to speak out for a while.
Ye Shucheng's face was already ugly, and he said to Rita, "Go to the municipal hospital." ”
An Ziyan felt that it was impossible to keep quiet, "Then ...... the person you asked this afternoon?"
I'll call later. ”
An Ziyan shook his head and sighed softly.
When they arrived at the hospital, Xu Jinghe had just woken up.
She was overly frightened and not in good spirits, and as soon as she saw Ye Shucheng, tears flowed down.
Ye Shucheng sat on the edge of the hospital bed, wiped her tears with a tissue, and whispered in her ear.
It's okay, it's okay. ”
An Ziyan asked about the situation.
Xu Jinghe violated the traffic rules and ran in the middle of the road without looking at the lights, so there was no perpetrator, she was actually not seriously injured, at the last moment a man rushed out to protect her, the man had a problem with his leg, and he was hit with a broken bone, and Xu Jinghe just had some abrasions on his arm when he fell to the ground.
The doctor had already treated the injury on Xu Jinghe's arm, and only told her to pay attention to her mental condition, and then told An Ziyan that the man who saved Xu Jinghe came out of the operating room, and he still needed to pay the medical bills.
Xu Jinghe returned the pear blossoms with rain, and Ye Shucheng was comforting her. An Ziyan saw that Ye Shucheng couldn't leave for a while, so he went to pay the middle-aged man's medical bills.
The middle-aged man is called Xu Cheng, An Ziyan took the list and pondered for a while, Xu Cheng, Xu Jinghe, is there anything to do with it, he wanted to ask, but Xu Chengcai came out of the operating room, and he hadn't woken up yet, and Xu Jinghe kept crying and couldn't say anything clearly, so he had to give up.
An Ziyan had a party in the evening, so he left soon after making sure that he was fine, and Ye Shucheng accompanied Xu Jinghe until six o'clock in the afternoon. Xu Jinghe calmed down a little, he went to see Xu Cheng, Xu Cheng hadn't woken up yet, he could only leave a phone call for the nurse, and then leave with Xu Jinghe.
Xu Jinghe sat in the car all the way, and her mind was still a little trance.
There were so many things that happened on this day, she felt that the whole person seemed to be floating, there was no sense of reality at all, she felt very tired, and Ye Shucheng's voice sounded slowly.
Jinghe, do you know Xu Cheng? He saved you. ”
She was stunned and looked at Ye Shucheng, who was still driving. When she asked, her expression was faint, as if she didn't notice anything, she shook her head, "I don't know...... Did he save me? ”
Well," Ye Shucheng thought for a moment, "The hospital said that he has no family to take care of, and I am thinking about hiring a nurse for him tomorrow, his left leg is broken, and I can't leave it alone." ”
Xu Jinghe's face was already pale, and he was a little stunned when he heard this, "Legs...... Broken? To save me? ”
At the red light, the car slowly stopped at the intersection. Ye Shucheng glanced at her, "Don't feel too guilty, we will make up for him, he saved you, we can ......"
I'll come," Xu Jinghe said first, "I'll go to the hospital tomorrow to see him and see if there's anything I can do." ”
She was a little anxious when she spoke, and he was stunned for a moment, "I have already left my phone number......"
She interrupted him again, "You don't need to worry about this matter, I'll take care of it." ”
Xu Jinghe rarely had such a strong time, his eyes were a little hesitant, and she quickly explained, "He saved me, I should go and thank him." ”
He nodded, "Okay, there's something you need to tell me." ”
Su Jinghe nodded, looked out the window again, and her fingers tightened the corners of her clothes.
The two of them returned to Yishui Yunju, Xu Jinghe shrank on the bed when he returned to the room, and the cook said that he had no appetite when he cooked.
Ye Shucheng had no choice, so he personally sent the meal upstairs, and the dinner plate was placed on the cabinet next to the bed, and he bent over and gently patted Xu Jinghe, who wrapped himself in a quilt like a silkworm chrysalis.
How much to eat a little. ”
She looked up slowly, "I'm not hungry. ”
She still had the scene of being knocked down in her head. Until now, she has palpitations, and she didn't expect that Xu Cheng would save her and actually break her leg......
Ye Shucheng was a little helpless, and patted her hand lightly on her back through the quilt, "Still afraid?" ”
She didn't speak, just blinked at him.
His heart softened, the conversation in the morning had not ended pleasantly, and he was really anxious when he heard that something had happened to her.
It was not easy for him to find her, even though there was some unhappiness between them these days, but in the final analysis. He was still worried when he knew that something had happened to her, he had not been able to save her all those years ago, and he could not have left her again.
He said, "Give me your hand." ”
She pursed her lips and hesitated for a few seconds before reaching out and being held in his palm, she felt his temperature, and her heart slowly calmed down.
However, I want to cry again, wronged, too wronged, although this man is gentle and soft to her, but it is just a false appearance, she doesn't know which woman he was entangled with last night, she wants to ask but she is afraid, she is walking on thin ice in this relationship, she hates this passive state.
She asked, "Shucheng, don't you leave tonight, okay?" I'm scared. ”
He was stunned, saw the unresolved horror in her eyes, hesitated for a few seconds, and smiled faintly: "If you are obedient to eat, I won't leave." ”
She quickly sat up, "I'll eat, I'll eat." ”
He watched her eat beside him, and then packed up his things and took them down, feeling indescribably annoyed. In the garden outside the villa, he took his mobile phone and called Su Nian.
The ringing bell rang for a long time, but no one answered on the other end.
He called again, but still no one answered, and Xu Jinghe's voice calling for him came.
……
Su Nian was also a toss today, because he went late in the morning, and the progress was delayed, so he worked overtime until seven o'clock and finally finished the picture, and he didn't even bother to eat and rushed to the training institution, and was squeezed on the bus along the way, and hurried to class when he got off the bus, and it was already more than nine o'clock after class, and she finally squeezed on the subway, and the whole person was a little dizzy.
He was right. If this continued, she felt that sooner or later she would die suddenly due to physical exhaustion.
There were very few people on the subway at this time, she took out her mobile phone and took a look, and found that two people from Ye Shucheng missed the time, and she was on the bus at that time, so she shouldn't have heard it.
Although she was tired, she remembered the project of the horticultural expo when she saw Ye Shucheng's phone, the corners of her lips hooked, her fingers jumped on the screen, and she called Ye Shucheng back.
I also wanted to ask about some things related to the project, but after waiting for a long time, I didn't answer the phone.
Frustrated, she put her phone back. Back to Rongcheng at ten o'clock, Ye Shucheng has not come back, and it is expected, after she took a shower, there were too many questions about the project in her mind, she simply ran to Ye Shucheng's room, lying on his bed and waiting.
But she was so tired that in a short time she fell asleep.
……
The reason why Ye Shucheng decided to stay in Yishui Yunju was because Xu Jinghe's condition was a little worrying.
After all, there was such a big thing during the day, and he, who is a boyfriend, can't say that he has to leave her at this time.
But the night is always a little awkward and tricky. Problems that have to be faced.
Like where to sleep.
After the phone call to Su Nian didn't go through, he kept thinking about finding a suitable opportunity to send a text message, but Xu Jinghe pulled him to watch a movie with her.
There was a small screening room in the villa with projections, and Xu Jinghe sat next to him, and his behavior was very restricted.
watched a classic French romance movie of some years, and he didn't have much interest in this type of film, but Xu Jinghe was fascinated by it, so he was patient with him.
His mobile phone rang once during the movie, just when the male and female protagonists looked at each other affectionately on the screen, Xu Jinghe was putting in the state of being beaten into a plate of loose sand by the mobile phone ringtone, and when she saw Ye Shucheng take out her mobile phone, she glanced at it, and there was one word on the mobile phone screen: Su.
Ye Shucheng pressed the mute and put the phone back, she asked, "Don't you answer?" ”
It doesn't matter. ”
Although he said it didn't matter, she didn't feel very comfortable.
He is too mysterious to say anything to her, is this the way lovers get along?
After the movie ended, Ye Shucheng didn't think about how to solve the problem of where to sleep, but he couldn't escape after all, and at the door of the projection room, he said, "I'll sleep in the guest room." ”
Xu Jinghe's face was a little unbearable, she nodded, and seeing him turn around and walk a few steps, she couldn't help but speak: "Shucheng, what do you think of me?" ”
He paused.
She took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to walk over and stand in front of him.
Do you hate me? ”
You know I can't hate you. ”
But you didn't really accept me. ”
……”
He saw the certainty in her eyes, and raised his hand to his forehead.
The night seemed to be going to be a lot of trouble.
