The warm lighting, the long corridors, and the quaint doors were pushed open.

The glass of wine in the woman's hand shook lightly, and the wine overflowed, like the tears that the woman did not shed, suddenly jumped into his heart, sour and unbearable.

Xiao Jun walked in with a shaky move, knocked off the wine glass, grabbed the woman's wrist, and reminded the bald middle-aged man with an oily face opposite, "Your wife is still outside, good luck." ”

Pulling up the woman, Xiao Jun wanted to take her away.

"What are you doing?" But as soon as he left the room, the woman shook off his hand and said to him indifferently, "You don't have to worry about my business." Turning around, she was going home.

Xiao Jun immediately made a move and grabbed her arm hard, "Don't you want me to care if you are defiled?" ”

"What nonsense are you talking about?" I tried to calm down, but I could still hear the slightest trill.

"You don't know?"

"Know what?"

"When you win this project, you think you've succeeded?"

"I don't want success, I want commitment." Fang Qiyu promised her that as long as she got the project, he would visit her mother in the nursing home.

"Mr. Fang promised that as long as the contract is signed, he can agree to any conditions." Stopping, Xiao Jun looked at the woman and looked into her vibrating pupils - "Including you, Fang Chuchu." ”

"You talk nonsense!" Tears burst out, Fang Chuchu shouted, her whole body was in a fuss, she wanted to find a place to hide, and then cried without any scruples.

Xiao Jun not only did not let go, but tightened his arms, and used his other hand to restrain the woman's messy body, hugged her into his arms, and put it in her ear and told her, "Fang Chuchu, listen to me, you are Fang Qiyu's chess piece, you better recognize this." ”

The madness suddenly quieted down, Fang Chuchu raised his head, his face was full of tears, but with a ruthless gaze, "When it comes to chess pieces, no one can compare to you." It was not me who made Fang Qiyu a cow and a horse. ”

"Yes, we're both pawns. I'm Niu Ma, what are you—his own daughter! ”

Fang Chuchu almost forgot that if the other party Qiyu only hated, would she live a happier life. But in addition to hate and love, she is his daughter, he is her father, from love to hate, hate and love, which makes her heart endure Ling Chi every day.

The alcohol began to work, and the qi that had just supported Fang Chuchu's body was quickly withdrawn at this moment, her whole body was paralyzed, and she fell into Xiao Jun's arms exhausted.

"I hate you." The forehead pressed against his shoulder, and the tears broke down again.

Xiao Jun's big hand covered the back of the woman's head and stroked it over and over again, "Don't worry." I will always protect you. ”

"Ahh "It's hard to call you over so late."

When she sat down, he personally poured tea for her, "This tea helps her sleep." ”

Mu Yao stared at the blue and yellow tea in the cup, and didn't pick it up for a long time. Xiao Jun looked strange and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"It doesn't seem to be the same as the first date." Mu Yao lowered his head, looked at the teacup, and said suddenly.

"Of course not." Xiao Jun replied to her.

"What's the difference?" She immediately looked up and asked. Xiao Jun looked at it, raised his eyebrows inadvertently, and slowly put down the teapot, but asked, "Where do you think it's different?" ”

She thought? Mu Yao can't get what he wants, and he doesn't dare to ask for what he doesn't want. Lowering her head again, she picked up the wooden cup in frustration, "Can it really cure insomnia?" After saying that, he drank it all.

"I didn't say it could cure insomnia, it was just good for sleep." Xiao Jun clarified that seeing the woman's frustration, he didn't say much, but silently poured a full wooden cup for her. "If you want to cure insomnia, taking medicine is still the strongest." He told her.

Mu Yao felt that this man was so good, and he wouldn't force the topic she didn't want to continue; What she didn't want to mention, he wouldn't ask. It should be good to be a boyfriend if you accommodate her like this. Her heart is hypnotic.

On the other side, the man is also hypnotizing, "I once had a friend who had a lot of insomnia, and I gave her medicine, and it was a big improvement in less than half a month." ”

"You're a doctor?"

"No, but I'm half a pharmacist, and I've taken a lot of medicine."

Although it was an understatement, Mu Yao was always faintly uneasy in his heart. Overall, Xiao Jun is just like his name, "the friendship of gentlemen is as light as water", calm and gentle. Occasionally, however, there was a moment when he sent chills down his spine.

Such a moment played out again, and Mu Haruka almost didn't hold the wooden cup - he must have a lot of secrets. When she looked over, the man was watching her, capturing her every move. "What's wrong?" He asked.

"Why do you take so many pills?" Putting down the wooden cup, Mu Yao plucked up the courage to ask.

"Because I'm sick." He is light and breezy.

"What disease? Is it okay now? A little eager, Mu Yao said he was worried.

"Are you scared?"

I didn't know how to answer it for a while, she categorically didn't have that kind of idea, but the other party just misunderstood. "I'm not—" Hurriedly explained, but paused in the man's chuckle.

"Don't worry, I'm fine now." Xiao Jun put away his smile and said to her. Mu Yao regretted her attitude, she sincerely apologized, "I'm sorry." ”

"You're not wrong." Xiao Jun replied to her seriously, "It's me who is sensitive." ”

Not knowing how to continue, Mu Yao fell silent.

Xiao Jun was not in a hurry to speak, after a few cups of tea, there was not much tea left in the teapot, and he added water to it while adding tea. The quaint and leisurely Japanese-style small tea room only left the sound of fire for a while.

Through the Japanese-style wooden window, Mu Yao saw that the snow was drifting outside.

"I can provide you with sleeping pills if you need them." Unexpectedly, he still remembered, Mu Yao turned around, and in order to make up for the previous offense, she replied simply: "Okay." ”

Xiao Jun smiled and poured the freshly brewed tea into her wooden cup, "I don't know how to make tea, it was brewed and served by the waiter before, you taste it, what's the difference?" Mu Yao obediently picked it up, took a sip, put it down, and smiled, "I don't know how to taste tea, I don't think it's any difference." ”

The tea that was just taken from the stove, even if it was poured into the cup, it was still boiling hot, and Mu Yao just touched it, and soaked it to his lips, and then his mouth was numb, where is there still a sense of taste.

It's just that she endured all of this and refused to reveal it.

Xiao Jun saw it.

Getting up, he walked to the window and opened it. When he turned back, the snow was still falling outside, the windows were closed, and instead of returning to his place, he walked over to her and sat down.

There was a chill on his body, carrying wind and snow, which Mu Yao clearly felt when he leaned over. She also saw that he had something in his mouth.

"Is it snow?"

- It's snow.

Xiao Jun used his full coldness to cool down the heat on her mouth.

Warm lighting, hitting the wood-colored furniture, raised floors, neatly divided squares. The snow outside the window, the fire indoors, and the warm environment of the Japanese style, everything is quiet, only the snow is melting, and the fire is baking.

"Don't put up with these things in the future," Xiao Jun said as he gently wiped the melting snow from Mu Yao's mouth, "Remember, I will take care of you." ”

Mu Yao has never been treated like this, even when she was pursued by Lin Sen back then, she has never experienced such gentleness, and she forgot to resist when she was gentle.

Xiao Jun was still stunned when he saw her, and laughed at her, "What do you think, you won't forget that we are a couple, right?" ”

It's true? After noon, Mu Yao always thought that this was just an improvisation, and she was just cooperating with the starring.

"I thought you would say that only because of Fang Chuchu." Mu Yao told the truth.

Xiao Jun got up and sat back in his original position, "It's really because of Fang Chuchu," he confessed, "but it's also true to be boyfriend and girlfriend with you." ”

The heat in her heart dropped little by little, and Mu Yao didn't know whether she should believe or doubt. "Why, because Fang Chuchu did this?"

"Didn't you agree to me because of Fang Chuchu?" Xiao Jun asked rhetorically, Mu Yao seemed to have been poked in the sore spot, and it was difficult to speak.

"But it doesn't matter anymore, does it?" Across the table, he reached out and took her hand, which was colder than hers. "We're together, and that's the key."

Mu Yao looked at him and didn't deny or agree, but this was the best result he imagined.

Almost three years ago, the same shop, then it was a restaurant, and this time it was a teahouse. The same room, at that time, was antique Chinese style, and at this time it was a decent Japanese beauty.

At that time, the woman was drinking in large gulps, and the woman at this time was taking small sips of tea.

That's the difference. But the similarities are here.

At that time, Mu Yao was like Fang Chuchu, who he had never known, he was cautious in everything, humble and polite when meeting people, and in this noisy world, he lived so carefully and seriously, and it was hard and pitiful. It makes people want to get close and love it.

However, Fang Chuchu is Fang Chuchu, Mu Yao is Mu Yao, and the two of them are always very different. Xiao Jun understood this truth, withdrew his hand, and smiled lightly, "I'll send you back!" It's not too late. Mu Yao nodded, looking up to meet his gaze.

It should be certain that Mu Yao doesn't hate him, but Fang Chuchu hates him. That's the big difference.

"I hate you!" She put her forehead on his shoulder and said that, but he was distressed and just hugged her tight.

Xiao Jun knew what she hated about him - she hated him for telling the truth, Fang Qiyu treated her as a pawn, but she treated him as a father. This is "hate", but even hatred can't change the fact.

On the way, Xiao Jun pointed out a tall building out of the window, "Look at that! ”

As Mu Yao's eyes moved, Xiao Jun said: "My parents fell from that building, the building was not completed at that time, and when it was completed, they had been dead for two years. ”

The familiar moment overwhelmed Mu Yao again, and she looked back at the man's side face, as if nothing had happened, and she was already cold.

The developer of the building is Fong Kai Yu. When his parents died, Xiao Jun was only fifteen years old. Fang Qiyu promised to support him, as long as he didn't sue him.

Xiao Jun really didn't sue him, because he became a dog at Fang Qiyu's feet, working as a cow and a horse. He thought that he would honor his master for the rest of his life, and his father and mother would be used as a pawn for the rest of his life.

But until one day, he met his daughter, Fang Chuchu.

The encounter of two "chess pieces" is revenge on the one hand and gratitude on the other, hatred and love.
