The first Demon Heart

In order for the perfume to be on the market before Valentine's Day, Xiao Xingxing was so busy that he could fly. Finally, before the Chinese New Year, the perfume packaging, gifts, and gift boxes were designed.

After all, she has been a daughter for more than ten years, and she is familiar with the preferences of celebrities, and the specially made gift box is packed with platinum packaging and crystal decorations to meet the needs of some people who only buy expensive and do not buy expensive.

"Very good!" Lilian praised her after seeing the sample, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed that this was the work of a rookie designer." ”

Huo Zhourong suddenly increased his investment in cosmetics, integrated the Lucky Rose company, and asked her to come over, she felt that there was a problem.

And when she came, Huo Zhourong's conversation with her was full of hope that she could take care of this young and beautiful new designer.

What else could be the reason why a man has this kind of care for a woman?

If she was because Huo Zhourong looked at Xiao Xingxing differently before, then in just one month, it was Xiao Xingxing's own ability that made her truly recognize this new-generation designer, not the woman that the boss fancied.

"Like Mark said, you were born to do this." Lilian sighed.

Xiao Xingxing was surprised: "You...... Meet Mr. Mark? ”

"What? Weird, isn't it? Lilian smiled.

Not surprising.

Her teacher Mark is very famous in the foreign perfume circle, and Lilian, as the head of the Chinese fashion industry, is strange that the two do not know each other.

"So, are you taking such good care of me because of Mr. Mark?"

Lilian's smile became meaningful: "It's not important, the important thing is that I didn't take care of you, everything is your own deserving." That's right! Tonight, Huo's annual meeting, do you want to go together? ”

"I'm sorry Lilian, I can't go because of something."

Lilian raised an eyebrow: "This is your chance to expand your network." ”

"I know......" Xiao Xingxing smiled, "but I promised my son that I would stay at home with him during the holidays." ”

"You're married?" Lilian was shocked that Mr. Huo was actually interested in a married woman??

Xiao Xingxing: "I'm a single mother. ”

lilian：“……”

When Xiao Xingxing left the office, he didn't see Lilian's complicated gaze.

Lilian felt a pity, she thought that although Xiao Xingxing was not a famous lady, her status in the fashion industry in the future would not be low, if Mr. Huo really liked her, it was not impossible to marry into a wealthy family.

But now Xiao Xingxing is carrying a drag oil bottle, so ......

No matter how much Huo Zhourong likes her, it is impossible to marry, ordinary people will estimate that a second-married woman will have a child, not to mention the background of the Huo family, this road has been blocked......

Before leaving work, Xiao Xingxing met with the advertising department, and they wanted to hear her opinion on the perfume spokesperson. If you settle it early, you can announce it immediately when you go to work next year.

"Do you choose among these female stars?" Looking at the photos sent to her, Xiao Xingxing was not surprised to find a very familiar person.

Jiang Luo.

"These are not suitable for our perfume style, you can decide the rest." She quietly put Jiang Luo on the inappropriate list.

In this world, there is no one who can get away with hurting others without paying the price. But there are some people who rely on power and money to walk above the rules.

Xiao Xingxing looked at his palm, which could no longer see the scar, since there was a chance to return it, why not!

drove home in the company's newly allotted car, and as soon as she came in, the cub greeted her with a small lantern.

Xiao Xingxing hugged his son and kissed him: "It's a holiday, it's a holiday!" We went to the supermarket in the evening to make a big purchase! ”

Aunt Fang poked her head out of the kitchen with a smile: "The lantern was given by a neighbor, and a couplet and a blessing word were also sent." ”

"Then let's send something to others later, we have a lot of New Year's goods to buy!" Xiao Xingxing patted his bag, "I'm the supervisor now, I'm rich now!" ”

After saying that, he laughed first, and the cub patted Xiao Xingxing's shoulder with an expression that he really couldn't help his mother: "Then I want to take care of my mother, you women love to buy things indiscriminately." ”

Xiao Xingxing: →_→

When they came back from the supermarket with large bags and small bags, Xiao Xingxing and Aunt Fang were busy hanging lanterns at home again, this was the first year after they returned to China, and everyone felt an inexplicable excitement and peace of mind.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, Xingxing and Aunt Fang made a table of dishes. Many ingredients that could not be bought or could not be bought abroad before were also put on the table today, and she even made a cup of Buddha jumping over the wall a day in advance, which was full of real materials.

"Celebrate my promotion and salary increase, and buy a big house in the future! Cheers! The three of them raised their glasses, and Xiao Xingxing added in his heart, let me save enough money as soon as possible, and my cub's operation was successful!

Putting down the cup, the cub ran into the room, and then burst out again.

"Mom, New Year's gift." He held his things aloft.

A picture made of grains!

"The cubs did it themselves?" Xiao Xingxing picked it up in surprise, it was a portrait of her. The hair is black beans and the mouth is red beans. There were also perfume bottles made of beans of various colors, and she looked as if she had conquered them as if she were looking down on them.

"He's been doing it for days!" Aunt Fang touched the cub's head.

The cub pursed his lips and said with a serious face: "In the future, when I make money, I will make another one for you with gold." ”

He also gestured: "It's so big." ”

"Thank you!" The corners of Xiao Xingxing's eyes turned red, and he hugged his son into his arms, "I like it very much, let me see where we put the painting?" Is behind the couch good? ”

Now and ancient times are all over this night, and the wise and the foolish are one year old. I don't know whose house is secretly setting off fireworks outside the window, and the reflection of the fireworks shines on the window. Inside the window is a family that has been wandering for a long time and finally returned to their roots, but at this time, no one could have imagined that a disaster was about to come quietly...... Zhao Xiaoqing stood under the dilapidated old building, the lights of thousands of homes shining on her gray and indifferent face.

"Xiao Xingxing, why do you want to do this to me? I just changed your documents, and it didn't work, so you let Mr. Huo kill me completely......"

She submitted a lot of resumes in the past two days, but they were all rejected, at first she thought it was because of the Chinese New Year, the company did not recruit people, and wanted to wait until the next year.

Who knew that a classmate who worked in a makeup company asked her if she had offended anyone today, and some people said that she had a bad character, and now the industry knows it, and no one will use her.

Zhao Xiaoqing knew that she was completely finished, during the Chinese New Year, she walked on the street alone, and the WeChat group was busy grabbing red envelopes, and I saw them saying that Lucky Rose had made a big adjustment and had a new perfume director, who was a big beauty who came back from studying abroad......

"Huh...... Hehe! She watched those people talk about Xiao Xingxing in a tone of envy and jealousy, and before she knew it, she walked to an old street.

In my memory, Xiao Xingxing's family lived here, and once she and Xiao Xingxing came back to get documents together, and she waited for Xiao Xingxing downstairs. Zhao Xiaoqing walked all the way, walked to Xiao Xingxing's community, and walked downstairs to her house.

She didn't remember what floor Xiao Xingxing's house was on, it seemed to be the second floor or the third floor......

A few children next to him were setting off fireworks, and Zhao Xiaoqing watched blankly. She didn't know what she was doing here, and she was screaming in her heart that there was nowhere to vent some kind of hatred.

Suddenly, she saw Xiao Xingxing coming out of the corridor, hurriedly turned around, and retreated into the shadows.

Xiao Xingxing came down to throw out the garbage, and she didn't notice that someone followed her upstairs.

Zhao Xiaoqing saw Xiao Xingxing enter the room on the left side of the second floor, she stood at the door for a while, and heard the voices of children inside, and the old man laughing.

She turned and walked downstairs, thinking as she went.

Why! Why did she become the director, and the family had Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in a warm house. I can't even pay the rent, and no one cares about her life or death.

"In that case, then don't think about living well, I'm going to let you taste nothing!"

Zhao Xiaoqing walked out of the corridor, the children who set off the fireworks were gone, and a lighter was thrown on the ground. She walked over and picked it up, and with a light touch, the flames burst out.

Illuminate her eerie face.

The Huo family's mansion

This is a rare opportunity for Huo Zhourong's family to eat at a table, and Huo Ming, the old man of the Huo family, is sitting in the first seat, glaring at Huo Zhourong.

"Haven't you heard of the Four Laws?" The old man was wearing a Tang costume and roared in good spirits.

Huo Zhourong sat next to him and ate with a faint expression: "No." ”

"Roar, I've heard it! I've heard it! Huo Xingye raised his hand.

"Little Er, you say." The old man was as proud as if he had found an ally.

Huo Xingye shook his head: "The child is still young, and when he is older than the New Year, everyone is here, and everyone is dead." ”

"What nonsense are you talking about during the New Year!" Huo Hexi couldn't wait to throw the chopsticks on this son's head, "Who made you say death...... Such unlucky words? ”

Huo Xingye shouted: "That, that! Dad just said, it's a big New Year! ”

"Don't make any noise." The old man told his son to shut up and corrected his grandson, "There is a wrong sentence. ”

"Which one?"

"It's not that the children are still young, it's that the old people are old." Old man Huo said seriously, and then looked at Huo Zhourong, "Did you hear that?" When the old man is old, he wants to eat two pieces of candy, why can't he do it? ”

Huo Zhourong glanced at him: "The law doesn't say whether the old man has diabetes?" ”

“…… Who's going to say this? ”

"Now then." Huo Zhourong reached out and took out the chocolate that the old man had hidden in his pocket, "Just discharged from the hospital, the old man with diabetes is not qualified to eat sugar." ”

Huo Ming scolded and scolded, but was ruthlessly suppressed.

Huo Xingye shouted: "! Who is so unlucky to be set on fire for the New Year, what hatred and what resentment! ”

"What's wrong?" The woman is the most positive about this kind of thing, Bai Mengge hurriedly asked.

It turned out that a social news had just been pushed, and someone in an old community set fire to it and was caught on the spot, but the fire had already burned.

"Look, someone has uploaded a video, it's burned very big, and I don't know if the dead man has ......" Huo Xingye showed his phone to his mother.

Huo Zhourong didn't dare to be interested in this, but suddenly heard Bai Mengge say something.

"Tumen Community? What a broken name. ”

Huo Xingye just wanted to laugh, but his hand was empty, and he turned his head to see that the mobile phone was already in his brother's hand.

"Brother?"

Huo Zhourong ignored him, quickly read the news, and looked for a video on the Internet.

"Brother, what are you looking for, I'll find it for you?" Huo Xingye came up.

Huo Zhourong pushed away the chair and turned around to leave.

"It's not...... Brother, why are you going? ”

Huo Ming didn't make a fuss anymore, and saw that the eldest grandson actually picked up his coat and went out: "Why is he going?" ”

"I don't know...... Huo Xingye stood up and chased, "Brother, where are you going?" You're going to give me my phone......"

He chased to the door and found that his mobile phone was left alone on the windowsill, and Huo Zhourong's headlights flashed a few times outside and drove out of the old house.

Xiao Xingxing hugged the cub and stared blankly at the burning building, with the harsh sound of an ambulance in his ears. There are also fire brigades constantly shouting at people not to approach, and some people are constantly being carried out and sent to ambulances.

"Mom." The cub looked up from her arms.

Xiao Xingxing looked down at his son and sobbed.

"Cub, our house is gone, our home is gone......"

The cub hugged her neck, and the mother and son stood in the crowd with their lives attached to each other.

Half an hour ago, she had just fallen asleep when she heard what appeared to be someone slamming on the door. Xiao Xingxing sat up in a daze, and finally heard the people outside shouting.

"Wake up, people inside! It's on fire! It's on fire! ”

She suddenly came to her senses, picked up the cub in fear, and then went next door to call Aunt Fang. As soon as I went out, I saw Aunt Fang running out, and I was also panicked.

The living room was full of smoke, and someone was slamming on the door outside.

Xiao Xingxing let Aunt Fang carry the cubs and pushed them into the small balcony, and ran to the door to open the door.

As soon as her hand grabbed the handle of the security door, she screamed, Xiao Xingxing endured the pain, pulled down the sofa towel next to her, hugged her hand and went to open the door again, but she couldn't open it.

"Jump out of the window!" Someone outside yelled, "Your door has been burned and deformed, and it can't be opened." ”

Xiao Xingxing dropped the sofa towel and ran into the balcony, fortunately it was the third floor, Aunt Fang had already put the cub down with the basket she usually used to buy vegetables, and a middle-aged man caught the cub below.

There were a lot of people downstairs, and the sound of fire trucks could be heard in the distance.

"Can you jump?" The neighbors below shouted.

I don't know who brought a broken mattress over and shouted at them to jump down.

"Aunt Fang, you jump first!" Xiao Xingxing helped Aunt Fang onto the windowsill, Aunt Fang trembled, but she still gritted her teeth and jumped down.

Xiao Xingxing looked back, the fire had already burned into the living room, she gritted her teeth and ran back to wrap herself up to her neck, and then ran into the bedroom, quickly stuffed a few things into her bag, and then ran back to the balcony and jumped down with her eyes closed.

After the fire truck came, they began to extinguish the fire, and they found that the source of the fire was in front of Xiao Xingxing's house, and they judged at a glance that someone had set the fire maliciously.

Because it is an old building, the wiring is old. The fire burned the first and third floors directly, and if it hadn't been extinguished in time, the entire building would have burned.

When the fire was extinguished, the security guards of the community caught Zhao Xiaoqing according to the surveillance, and they called the police, who handcuffed Zhao Xiaoqing in the car and went to Xiao Xingxing for questioning.

"Zhao Xiaoqing?" Xiao Xingxing hugged the cub tightly, "She set the fire?" ”

"She was in the car, and the community surveillance filmed her fire advancing to your unit, coming out again a few minutes later, and then it caught fire." The policeman asked her, "Do you know her, what is the relationship between the two of you?" ”

"If there's anything to talk to, talk to the lawyer." A voice interjected.

Xiao Xingxing raised his head in panic and saw Huo Zhourong coming from the crowd and walking up to her.

It was a feeling that I couldn't describe in words, as if someone hit you with a light in the darkness deep in you and you didn't know what to do.

Xiao Xingxing felt that Huo Zhourong was chasing light at this time.
