Chapter 56: Dignity
Wen Yi looked at the waiters in the office with a blank face.
She turned her head and looked directly at Meng Ning, whose expression was a little complicated, and there was a dead silence in her voice: "Can I advance some salary?" ”
Meng Ning raised her eyebrows: "You are so short of money?" ”
Wen Yu said indifferently: "I have a daughter with leukemia. ”
"Oh."
Meng Ning didn't have any special reaction, and responded with a flat expression, so tasteless: "It's so boring...... But most of the people who come here to work are boring. It's not because of this, it's because of that. ”
She yawned, opened the drawer next to her casually, pulled out a stack of thick bills, and stuffed it to Wen Yu very casually: "Keep it." ”
Wen Yi took the pile of bills in a frustrated manner, trying to stuff them all into his pockets.
It's strange that it's a bunch of red paper that can't be used to save a life.
You can also let yourself throw away the last shred of dignity.
"Hey!"
Wen Yi raised his head and glanced at the woman, Meng Ning was looking at her condescendingly, with a cold expression: "Let me tell you again, it's best not to play those tricks here." ”
She spoke very slowly, but she landed loudly: "Don't think about running away after taking the money...... You can't afford that. ”
Wen Yu sniffed and responded, "Okay...... I ......"
Her tone was dry: "I'll wait for your call." ”
Meng Ning's face was pale: "Well, write down your phone number." ”
She turned around, as if she was too lazy to deal with Wen Yu anymore: "Then go where you should go." ”
Wen Yi left his phone number and hurried away.
After a while, the manager who had spoken to Meng Ning at the beginning walked in, looked at Meng Ning and raised his eyebrows: "You are really interesting today...... What does a bully little newcomer do? ”
Meng Ning picked up the small note on the desk with Wen Yi's phone number written on it, her eyes became a little soft, she shook her head, and said with a wry smile: "I originally wanted this girl to ......"
She sighed and jotted down the number on her phone.
The manager understood: "This girl is very similar to you back then." ”
Meng Ning knocked on the table and handed the manager a wine glass: "Yes, that's why I want her to retreat." ”
The manager took the cup with a laugh: "Yes, I am stunned, I look good, and my temperament is even more stubborn than you!" ”
Meng Ning smiled bitterly and let out a long sigh: "They are all hard-working people...... But what's the use? ”
"Drink a bar."
She stared at the bright red liquid in the wine glass: "It's all in the wine." ”
………………………………
Wen Yi still didn't dare to take a taxi this time, he was frightened, and ran all the way back to the hospital avoiding passers-by.
Seeing the gate of the hospital, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, the sunset had already set, but the street lights did not turn on in time, the road was dim, Wen Yu was busy on the road, did not pay attention, and actually let a little girl bump into her arms at the steps.
She was startled: "Who? He almost pushed the little girl out, but Wen Xi spoke in time.
"Mom!"
She was stunned, glanced at the little girl in her arms, quickly picked up the person, and touched her cold little face: "Why did you come out?" ”
A panting nurse ran over: "Wen Xi, where are you going?" ”
Wen Yi hurriedly hugged the child and greeted him, the nurse ran out of breath, and only after seeing Wen Xi was relieved.
Crying and laughing: "You little girl is really ...... Didn't you say you were going to come out to the bathroom? How did you come here alone? ”
Wen Yi's heart tightened, and his face changed: "You ran out secretly?" ”
She looked at Wen Xi sternly: "Didn't Mom tell you to listen to the nurses and sisters obediently?" How can you deliberately make trouble for everyone! ”
Wen Xi was a little aggrieved, but he couldn't hold back the tears, his little face turned red, and he obediently apologized to the nurse: "I'm sorry, sister, I will definitely not do it again in the future." ”
She buried her face in Wen Yu's arms, Wen Yi felt a burst of dampness and heat in her neck, it was Wen Xi's tears that finally fell out, and she hugged Wen Yu's neck tightly and refused to let go.
The nurse sighed and said with some complaint, "Don't say that...... The child misses you too. ”
She pouted helplessly: "After waking up, I looked out the window and waited for you to come back." ”
She accompanied Wen Yu and walked slowly to the ward.
"How old is this kid? Just turned three years old. ”
The nurse took the child over and tapped the child's nose: "Six or seven-year-old children are not as sensible as her...... We all felt very distressed when we saw it. ”
After placing the child, the nurse told Wen Yu a few words and quickly withdrew.
Wen Xi was in low spirits, but he still looked at his mother with blank eyes, stubbornly stretched out his hand from the quilt, and grabbed Wen Yi's little thumb: "Mom, tell me a story." I also want to hear Snow White. ”
The little girl blinked, a little proud: "Because the two of us are Snow White and Snow White, don't worry, Mom, there will definitely be Prince Charming to rescue us!" ”
Wen Yi took off his coat stuffed with money and carefully stuffed it under Wen Xi's hospital bed.
Where is Prince Charming? I don't know.
Only these banknotes can save Wenxi's life.
She smiled at her daughter's fairy tale and opened the fairy tale book, but before the story was finished, the little girl was already asleep.
………………………………
At night in the Ji family, there is also the same bright moonlight.
It's just that the situation is similar to Wen Yu's side, and the owner of this place is also not in the mood to admire the moon.
"Shall we go to the Maldives for a lap?"
Yang Mengyao pushed open the heavy door of the study, walked in with a cup of coffee, tentatively sat next to Ji Heng, and said softly: "When I was in college, I often went to the beach to play. There are gentle waves there that will allow you to relax. ”
Ji Heng took the black coffee, took a sip, and said tiredly: "Meng Yao, how is next time?" ”
His attention returned to the pile of reports on the laptop screen: "There have been a lot of things in the company recently, and Anyang can't be busy alone, so I can't leave now." ”
Yang Mengyao bit her lip and complained, "You've always been so busy...... There are 365 days in a year, and you can be busy from New Year's Day to Christmas. If it weren't for me taking the initiative to go to the company to see you. ”
Yang Mengyao sobbed: "I'm afraid you can't even remember, you still have to go home, right?" ”
Ji Heng was still indifferent.
He even thought it was a little funny—
How could it be, the secretary helped him arrange all the times he needed to meet with Yang Mengyao, so this scene could be sung seamlessly.
Yang Mengyao gritted her teeth and stood up, raising her voice slightly: "We haven't even spent our honeymoon - Ji Heng, in fact, I don't care about this." ”
Yang Mengyao glanced at Ji Heng's expression and changed her strategy, she squatted down, held Ji Heng's hand, and said softly: "I only care about you alone, I hope you can relax a little." ”
Ji Heng pinched the bridge of his nose.
After a long time, he said, "Okay." ”
……………………………………
The next morning, Yang Mengyao woke up very early, and even called all the servants in the house, choosing the clothes to wear when she traveled, as well as other luggage.
"Take this tie for sir—"
Yang Mengyao frowned and told Xiao Huang: "Don't be so clumsy, he likes this one the most." Don't be left behind. ”
Xiao Huang was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Steward Wang, both of them had some strange expressions, but they didn't say what they thought in their hearts.
I just folded the tie seriously and put it in the couple's suitcase.
Ji Heng was sleepless all night, sitting in the living room, looking out the window expressionlessly, and the trance had nothing to do with the hectic chaos in the living room.
He drank a cup of black coffee, opened his laptop, and raced against time to process his work emails.
…………………………………………
Late at night, Maldives.
The hotel is beautiful, the window is the endless sea, the moonlight hits the waves, the tide beats the beach wave after wave, it is eternally gentle.
It's just such a gentle scenery, but it doesn't have the effect of soothing people's hearts in Yang Mengyao's mouth.
Ji Heng stood alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the seagulls fly up and down in the distance, with a gloomy expression, not knowing what he was thinking.
Yang Mengyao on the bed woke up from her dream, and there was no one around.
An unwilling light flashed in her eyes, she stretched out her arm from the quilt, gritted her teeth and pushed the watch off the bedside table, and the expensive Rothschild fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
She looked at the man quietly, hoping that the voice would remind him that he would take the initiative to turn around and focus on herself.
The quality of this gift from Yang Mengyao to Ji Heng was very good, and the sound of the second hand moving was clearly audible at night, beating on her heart little by little.
The tall man never looked back, and even glanced at Yang Mengyao.
Yang Mengyao took a deep breath, walked off the bed barefoot, and slowly walked to Ji Heng's side, moving her gaze to the waves that Ji Heng was looking at.
"What are you thinking?"
It's been four years......
Yang Mengyao looked at Ji Heng's well-defined side face, and her heart was sour and unspeakable.
Everyone said that Ji Heng was a very qualified lover.
Only she knows that no matter who the person Ji Heng is thinking about now is, it will definitely not be her Yang Mengyao.
Yang Mengyao slowly leaned on Ji Heng's shoulder, and said quietly: "Take me back, okay?" ”
