He tapped her heart vigorously, and said with great confidence: "Your biggest irrationality is that you subconsciously like to escape. ”

After the words fell, he looked directly at her indifferently through the mirror, and said no more. The thin lips are pursed into straight lines, deep and solemn.

He stood there, indifferent and restrained quiet, which made Ruan Shu unconsciously flicker his eyes.

This man, when he gets serious, is always so tough, cold and hard.

She felt that she was now in a state that she didn't even understand-

In the past, she had to contend with too many things, wrapped herself tightly, did not let anyone enter her world, and lived a calm and cold life. But inexplicably, he suddenly reappeared, saying that he liked her ten years ago, and kept trying to get into her heart.

It was closed, a gloomy mass that was so dark that no one had ever snooped on, but he patiently dug slowly with a shovel, and even dug into the hole, and there was a tendency to tear it apart. She was always sharp, and she didn't even notice how he did it, and when she reacted, she felt faintly panicked.

It's not like her.

She shouldn't have failed to guard herself, she shouldn't have panicked.

Taking two deep breaths, Ruan Shu clenched his fists and shook back to his senses, and his phoenix eyes were clear: "Escape? What am I running away from? ”

"Third brother, do you think you know me well enough?" Her tone was extremely gentle, with a shallow smile, and she seemed to be familiar with him as usual, but the sentence itself pushed people thousands of miles away.

Fu Lingyuan's thin lips were pursed more and more tightly, his face was cold, and his eyes were as black as if they were dripping ink, which was easy for people to accidentally go around it.

Ruan Shu did not shy away from staring at him in the mirror, as if he was silently confronting.

Such silence gradually tilted the balance between the two invisibly.

I don't know how long later, Fu Lingyuan's hand suddenly pinched her chin: "I wish I knew Mrs. Fu well enough, but Mrs. Fu guards me like a thief, isn't it?" ”

He was wrapping around from behind her to in front of her, his forearm unintentionally snapping into her neck. Because of the anger, the muscles in his arms were tense, and they happened to be grazing against her throat, making her a little breathless, and there was a dull pain in her jaw.

Ruan Shu twisted his jaw and tried to break free from his hands.

Fu Lingyuan abruptly withdrew his hand.

Ruan Shu stood unsteadily, staggered and almost fell, and his hands subconsciously slapped on the mirror, so that he fixed his figure in time.

"Whether you think it's surveillance or protection, Thirteen will follow you today." Fu Lingyuan frowned coldly, said non-negotiably, ignored her, strode back to the bedroom, and soon there was a "bang", and there was a sound of slamming the bathroom door.

Ruan Shu stood still, silently looking at himself in the mirror at the moment, and what he saw was embarrassed and ridiculous.

Touching her aching chin and neck, she suddenly remembered that Rao Rao had "kindly" reminded her not to touch his scales.

He seemed to be provoked by her anger more often than before, and he had more attacks each time. The more serious ones are three times - she was found to be taking sex pills behind his back to hide her condition, she refused to reveal the secret about her annoyance, and this time.

Is it because her tolerance is getting lower and lower......

Ruan Shu felt that the more he got from her, the more he had to ask for her.

After all, people are greedy.

Just like her, the more habits she gets from him, the more she takes it for granted that he should tolerate her.

He didn't deserve an inch.

She shouldn't take it for granted.

The last thing she should have done was to be confused for a while, sign some bullshit contract with him, and involve herself and him in an unclear way.

Standing up straight, Ruan Shu also walked into the bathroom.

Fu Lingyuan was taking a bath.

She went to the suitcase to get her clothes, and found that the contents had been moved, and all the dresses she had brought were gone, except for a set of wide-leg pants and a linen shirt.

Glancing at the bathroom door, Ruan Shu pursed her lips and changed her clothes in silence.

Then instead of applying makeup as carefully as usual, he simply put on the basics, took what he had to bring, and left before he came out of the bathroom.

Fu Lingyuan opened the door of the bathroom and heard the sound of the door closing from the outside.

The bedroom was empty.

The gaze fell on the hotel bathrobe she threw on the bedside stool. He stepped forward, paused, and reached out to grab his bathrobe.

There is still her warm body temperature on it, as well as a faint orange blossom fragrance that belongs to her.

Fu Lingyuan brought it to his nose and sniffed deeply, his lips curved out of a mocking arc-

He must be looking like a fetish pervert right now.

In an instant, he put down her dressing gown, went to the duffel bag he had brought with him, and pulled out the old Nokia from the pocket of one of the trench coats.

Boot.

Make a phone call.

After three or four rings, someone on the other end picked it up.

"It's me." Fu Lingyuan's eyes were as deep as the sea, "I need you to check something." ”

*

When he arrived at Lin's booth, Ruan Shu saw that everyone was gathering together and talking to each other.

Coldly spotting her figure, they immediately shut down, probably because they ate and drank together last night, but they were not as restrained as she was yesterday, but they didn't stop the gossip expression, ambiguous gaze and curiosity that wanted to speak.

Needless to guess, nine times out of ten, as she expected, the head of the planning department had spread the news.

"Mr. Ruan." Li Mao was not among the ear to ear, and while getting up to greet her, he looked her up and down several times with concern on the ground, as if he was checking whether she was injured.

Ruan Shu frowned very lightly, but he was not too displeased, and asked him for the conference materials.

After Li Mao handed it to her, he finally couldn't help asking: "Mr. Ruan, I didn't trouble you last night, did I?" ”

"What can happen?" Ruan Shu looked at ease and asked suspiciously.

Li Mao glanced at her, didn't say anything more, and shook his head with a smile: "Mr. Ruan, you are busy." ”

"Hmm." Ruan Shu said softly, lowered his head to check the catalog, and quickly flipped through the information he needed.

"Mr. Ruan." Someone called her.

Ruan Shu raised his head when he heard the sound.

The head of the planning department suddenly bowed to her: "I'm sorry Mr. Ruan." The relationship between you and Mr. Fu is really curious. I was so excited that I couldn't keep my mouth shut for a while, and I didn't ask you for confirmation in person, so I told you all. ”

Ruan Shu glanced at her, then glanced at the rest of the people as if asking for mercy, and finally looked at everyone, and wrote lightly: "Don't be curious in the future, concentrate on work." ”

"He and I are husband and wife. I received my certificate at the end of last year. ”

"I'm going to the forum."

With that, she picked up the booklet and walked away, ignoring their next reaction.

The forum was attended by the organizing committee to a few companies. Lin was not invited in previous years, but this year is so fortunate because of Sanxin Group.

After handing over the invitation letter to the staff to register, Ruan Shu took the badge and simultaneous interpretation headset and walked into the hall, found the seat arranged by the organizing committee for Sanxin Group, sat quietly, and then quietly looked at the corners of the hall, wondering whether Zhao Shisan did not know her itinerary in advance, and now there is no conference invitation, whether she has successfully followed her in.

There are staff in the venue reminding everyone to check whether the simultaneous interpretation headphones can receive the channel normally.

Ruan Shu tried according to the reminder, and found that her was completely unusable, so she whispered to call a staff member closest to her. The other party turned around, and the moment they met her eyes, both of them were stunned.

After being stunned for a second, Tang Xianyang regained his previous expression and stepped forward to ask, "What's wrong?" What's wrong with the device? ”

"No movement." Ruan Shu handed him the headphones.

Tang Xianyang checked that there was no battery: "Wait a minute, I'll change it for you." ”

"Okay." Ruan Shu nodded slightly.

After a while, new headphones were sent to her, but the person who came was not Tang Xianyang.

Ruan Shu quickly threw himself into the various presentations of the forum, leaving his encounter with him behind for the time being.

It wasn't long before she felt a tightness in her stomach, probably because she hadn't eaten breakfast in the morning.

After enduring it for a while, a lot of sweat broke out on his head, and his chest was also stuffy, as if he couldn't concentrate on listening to the people on the podium, Ruan Shu could only apologize all the way and leave the seat.

As soon as he walked out of the guest area to one of the aisles, Tang Xianyang stepped forward, grabbed her arm, helped her slightly stumbling figure, and stared at her face: "What's uncomfortable?" Your complexion is ugly. ”

"Thank you. It's nothing, it's just that the air inside is a little stuffy, and I want to go out and take a breath. Ruan Shu explained lightly.

Flickering his gaze, Tang Xianyang let go of his hand.

Ruan Shu gently bowed his head as a farewell, and continued his steps, not taking two steps, but it was suddenly dark in front of him.

Tang Xianyang rushed up quickly, hugged her quickly, and said into his walkie-talkie: "Xiao Yang, immediately help me arrange a rest room." ”

"No bother, I just didn't eat breakfast and have a little low blood sugar." Ruan Shu pressed his arm to support his body, closed his eyes for two seconds, and then reopened them, and his vision returned to normal.

Tang Xianyang glanced at her when he heard this, and continued on the other end of the walkie-talkie: "Then find the medical staff of the two conferences to come to the lounge." ”

"Well, good. Hurry up. At the end of the conversation, he lowered his eyes and looked at her, "Let's go." The break room has been arranged, don't waste resources, don't waste the energy of my colleagues, it's our job. ”

Ruan Shu was silent for two seconds and nodded: "It's troublesome." ”

Tang Xianyang didn't speak, but there was a very faint look of mockery.

After dropping her off in the break room, he handed her over to one of his female colleagues and left.

The medical staff measured her body temperature, blood pressure, etc., and did the simplest tests, and came to the conclusion that Ruan Shu guessed that it was low blood sugar, and a little sleep deprivation and physical fatigue.

Ruan Shu was drinking honey water, and Tang Xianyang, who had disappeared for a while, came back and put the cake box in his hand in front of her: "There happens to be a dessert shop selling it here, you can eat some first." ”

It's Napoleon crisp.

Ruan Shu's pupils shrank slightly.

Tang Xianyang was helping her unpack the box: "Shouldn't you be following the assistant by your side?" Why are you alone? I just found Lin's booth and am asking my colleagues to help you inform the employees in your company so that they can pick you up. ”

"You don't need to inform them." Ruan Shu frowned, "It's too small." It's troublesome. ”

Tang Xianyang glanced at her and nodded: "Okay, I understand, that won't cause you trouble." ”

With that, he pushed Napoleon closer to her, turned and walked out the door to talk to the other end of the intercom.

Ruan Shu lowered his gaze and stared at the Napoleon crisp in front of him for two seconds, picked up the dessert spoon, dug a corner, put it in his mouth, and slowly ate a few bites.

"Before, you said that your taste has changed, and you don't like Napoleon pastry anymore. I thought you wouldn't eat it. ”

Ruan Shu looked up when she heard the sound, Tang Xianyang came in from outside, closed the door, walked to the sofa at right angles to her and sat down.

"Don't waste your heart." Her tone was light and light, and she only felt that it was a magical thing to be able to talk calmly with Tang Xianyang like an old friend who had not been seen for a long time. After all, before this, the relationship between them had been so bad that she couldn't tolerate seeing him in Haicheng again, so she asked Fu Lingyuan to help him leave.

She never remembered to learn from Fu Lingyuan what means Tang Xianyang had used to force Tang Xianyang to leave Haicheng, and the specific situation after he left Haicheng, but she didn't expect to meet again in Jiangcheng today. For a moment, she didn't know how to continue the conversation with him.

After thinking about it, I heard Tang Xianyang take the lead in speaking: "I'm not in Haicheng, you have one less person to entangle, out of sight is clean, don't you have a more comfortable life?" ”

His tone was calm, and he couldn't tell if he was mocking, accusing, or anything else at the moment.

"How to live or how to live." Ruan Shu responded simply, and then asked rhetorically, "You...... How did you come to Jiangcheng? ”

"Anyway, if I leave Haicheng, I want to start all over again, so I followed Sui Xin to her hometown."

During Tang Xianyang's speech, Ruan Shu noticed the wedding ring on the ring finger of his left hand, unconsciously narrowed his pupils, and asked with a calm face: "The last time I saw Sui Xin, she said that you had a broken lower leg, so the wedding was postponed." When did you get married? ”

"Broken lower leg? You met Sui Xin during that time? Tang Xianyang grasped this key point.

She told Sui Xin not to tell him that she was outside his hospital room at the time, and it seemed that Sui Xin had always kept his word. Ruan Shu pursed her lips: "Well, I went to the hospital to run errands and happened to run into her." ”

Tang Xianyang smiled: "That incident, she is still angry with you." ”

"I didn't let you beat you." Ruan Shu didn't have a chance to explain until today, and after a pause, she immediately added, "It's not the third brother who did it." ”

"I know. It was the man who was with you in Furniture City at the time who did it. ”

Ruan Shu raised his eyebrows lightly when he heard this.

Tang Xianyang leaned over to take her cup, intending to add more water to her.

Ruan Shu stopped: "No need, it's enough, thank you." ”

Tang Xianyang was not reluctant, put down the cup, and sat back on the sofa: "You should still change the bad problem of irregular diet, didn't the third brother urge you?" ”

Ruan Shu stared at the smile on his face, and the suspicion in her heart became more and more intense—since they had just met, she was surprised by his attitude towards her, and when it came to Fu Lingyuan, he was the same. She couldn't help but guess, didn't he know that he was made out of Haicheng by her and Fu Lingyuan?

Holding her thoughts, she smiled sloppily and counted it as answering his question, and then said tentatively: "I only learned later that you left Haicheng with your family. ”

Tang Xianyang's expression froze for a moment, and then said, "We were in a hurry. So it's not just you, but I haven't said goodbye to my other friends. ”

Are you in a hurry......? Ruan Shu twisted his eyebrows, he couldn't help but continue to test him outside the circle, and simply asked directly: "Xianyang, the reason why you left Haicheng with your family ......"

"You don't know?" Tang Xianyang was slightly surprised, "The third brother didn't tell you?" ”

"I kept forgetting to ask him." Ruan Shu subconsciously blurted out truthfully, and the moment she blurted out, she noticed that something was wrong, because it was equivalent to bluntly saying that she didn't bother to care about his whereabouts and life or death.

Sure enough, seeing Tang Xianyang's expression, he didn't mention it on the table, and quickly returned to normal, pulling the corners of his mouth and smiling: "It's hard to say." ”

When he said this, Ruan Shu thought he was euphemistically refusing to tell him, but in fact, he still opened his mouth: "It's my dad." ”

Tang Xianyang paused, as if reminiscing, organized the language, and continued: "My dad had an improper relationship with three female students at the university where he taught. One of the students had a problem with the abortion and was discovered by the parents and went to school. ”

"Uncle, he ......," Ruan Shu was stunned. In her impression, Tang's father inherited the Tang family's family style, always had a kind and kind face, and was a highly respected professor in Haicheng, who had been a teacher for most of his life. How could such a thing be done?

"Unbelievable, right?" Tang Xianyang mocked, "But this is the truth, even he confessed to it." ”

Ruan Shu was silent. She didn't know what to say.

"If it weren't for the help of the Fu family to suppress this matter, our Tang family would have a bad reputation in Haicheng now. Where else can I stay? ”

"That uncle and aunt are ...... now"

"My mom and my dad are divorced. My mom went back to her parents' house, and my dad went to Rongcheng. As for me, you have also seen my current job, and I will also tell you that I came with Sui Xin. So that's it, our family of three separated in three different places. Tang Xianyang said, "There are very few people in Haicheng who have changed our family. ”

Ruan Shu was silent again, his mind quietly turning, thinking about the relationship between Fu Lingyuan and this matter.

"Are you feeling sorry for our family?" Tang Xianyang observed her expression.

"Do you think I should gloat?" Ruan Shu said in a joking tone, "Friend of more than ten years, that's how you see me?" ”

"Yes, friends for more than ten years......" Tang Xianyang seemed to sigh with emotion, "During that time, my mind was all on my father's affairs, and when I remembered you again, I had already married Sui Xin and lived in Jiangcheng for half a month." It was around that time that I found that everything was transparent. ”

He apologized: "I'm sorry, but for a while I interfered with your life." ”

He laughed, "You were right to hate me at the time. Even I myself remembered the stalker and wanted to punch him twice. ”

"You don't have to apologize to me, I hit you back at the time, it's a bit of a joke." Ruan Shu smiled faintly with him, pondered for two seconds, and asked hesitantly, "Then you...... Have you been in contact with Lin Miaofu? ”
