Hearing her footsteps, he looked up and smiled and asked her, "Are you hungry, the kitchen has prepared food, let's go down." ”

I closed the computer I was looking at.

Fang Xiao couldn't help but glance at the computer, his hand was already in his hands, and he went downstairs.

After eating, eating fruit in the small living room, Chu Mingrui patted his knee, Fang Xiao sat down obediently, her hair was a little longer, tickling his face, he reached out for her behind her ear, and said to her: "Xiaoxiao, you don't want to go to work in the company." ”

She didn't ask why, she just said "yes".

Chu Mingrui said: "There is only one Xu Shen left, I can handle it." ”

She had forgotten this grievance for a long time, and when she heard him mention it, she already felt a sense of strangeness, and she was accustomed to sheltering from the wind and rain under his wing.

He kissed her on the cheek and said lightly, "Eat the fruit." ”

In this way, she stayed at home and began to get bored.

Sleep until noon before getting up, watch TV, and eat lunch; In the afternoon, I went shopping on the street, or went to a membership-based club, or went to the Mei Chu Yuan to spend my time, and then waited for Chu Mingrui to go home.

She is living a typical wife's life, and one day she accidentally looked back in the mirror seriously, and the person in the mirror was quiet and lazy, and she lost half of the sharp edge and brilliance of the year.

The strong and intelligent Fang Xiao is gone, and the calm and gentle person in the mirror is actually her now.

Perhaps, there is nothing wrong with that, she lowered the mirror and thought vaguely. Because I was bored, I had to drive to the street to go shopping.

Walking into a familiar jewelry store, from the clerk to the manager, everyone smiled: "Mrs. Chu, you are really coincidental, there is just a batch of new goods arriving." ”

She smiled slightly, several clerks had already surrounded her and walked towards the VIP room, just walked to the door of the VIP room, and it happened that two clerks walked out with a man and a woman respectfully, and the two sides looked at each other coldly, and they were all stunned.

Fang Xiao was surprised, he didn't want to meet Xu Shen here, he was even more unexpected with a petite and lovely beauty by his side.

The manager smiled and asked, "Mr. Xu, Miss Gu, have you picked the ring so quickly?" ”

Xu Shen nodded, and the manager asked: "I don't know what day the big day is, it will be a sensation in the whole city at that time, Mr. Xu must remember to light up the signboard of our store."

Xu Gu married, and the wedding ring was actually ordered in our store, which is really the best advertisement. ”

Xu Shen seemed to be impatient with the manager's stuttering, nodded and left.

Fang Xiao walked into the VIP room, and someone had already held the key and asked, "What does Mrs. Chu want to see today?" There is a new batch of diamond rings arriving. ”

Seeing that Fang Xiao nodded, he immediately opened the cabinet and took it out for her to see. The rows of shiny pebbles dazzled Fang Xiao for no reason, somehow she didn't want to stay here anymore, and with a finger in her hand, the manager was full of praise: "Mrs. Chu, you really have a vision." This one is an extremely white flawless all-American, and although it is only four carats, it is extraordinary......

Fang Xiao didn't ask how much it was, and he didn't look at the bill handed over by the clerk on the side, signed and said, "Send it to my house." ”

Stand up and let them hug and send you out.

Driving around the street, I unconsciously drove the car to Yangzhi Square, and since I arrived, I simply parked the car in Yutian's underground parking lot.

Fortunately, although she has not come to work for a long time, the magnetic card of the special elevator is still with her, so she directly entered the special elevator from the garage, this elevator is directly to Chu Mingrui's office, presumably she ran up so suddenly, it was to scare him.

When the elevator arrived, with a crisp sound, the field of vision became wider and wider, but Chu Mingrui was not seen.

The office was quiet, she called "Mingrui" twice, and he finally came out of the lounge with a hurried look and closed the door of the lounge.

Fang Xiao stepped out of the elevator, his gaze turned elsewhere, and he asked, "Why did you come suddenly?" ”

"I'm passing by, come up by the way." She approached him slowly. He leaned against the door, didn't move, and said, "Oh, let's go to your office and talk." ”

She could already smell a faint smell of perfume on the tip of her nose, and she could see the pale pink lipstick print on his neck.

She stretched out her hand to wipe the lip print, smiled faintly, and said to him, "Tell the young lady inside the door that it should be more convenient to use lipstick that does not fade." ”

He remained motionless. She said, "I'll go back." ”

When she returned home, she cooked a few snacks and baked them before saying to the servant, "I'm tired and want to sleep for a while, don't make any noise with me." And he said, "Bake the snacks and hang them there, and wait for the gentleman to come back and eat them." ”

The fourth sister agreed, Fang Xiao went upstairs, and found Chu Mingrui's sleeping pills in the drawer where the medicine was placed, the bottle of medicine had just been opened, and there were more than eighty tablets, she poured a glass of water, swallowed those white pills one by one, and then lay down quietly and fell asleep quietly.

She was awakened by a feeling of great sadness, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she felt a tube in her throat, and her stomach made her frown.

The figures around her were dangling, and Bai Huahua couldn't see clearly, so she closed her eyes again.

Finally, the tube in her throat was pulled out, she was pushed, and she opened her eyes again and saw the headscarf on the head of the nurse. Nurse? So she's in the hospital?

Everything finally quieted down, and a familiar voice called her name: "Fang Xiao." ”

A sour feeling brushed through her heart, she closed her eyes, and a light smile escaped from her lips: "What's wrong with me?" Only then did she realize that her voice was hoarse, and it really didn't look like her voice anymore.

Chu Mingrui had already turned hundreds of thoughts in his heart, but he still blurted out the same sentence: "How do you do stupid things?" ”

Fang Xiao smiled: "Oh, I can't sleep and take a few more sleeping pills, what's the matter, do you think I committed suicide?" ”

It was already dark, and only the two orange wall lamps at the head of the bed were turned on in the ward, which made her face pale without a trace of blood, and she was still smiling, but her eyes were gloomy, and she couldn't suppress a sad look.

He shouted, "Fang Xiao." ”

He took her hand, pressed her hot lips against it, and whispered, intermittently, "Don't use it...... Punish me in this way. ”

She looked at him wistfully. "I just didn't feel secure," he said. ”

His face was hazy in the shadows, Fang Xiao couldn't see clearly, but his voice was weak, "Fang Xiao, you won't understand." You said that Rhett was a fool, and I knew that you would not understand. You never think that a pine tree that supports the silk flower also needs support, needs to be relied on. ”

The metaphor made her even more frightened, and his voice was still slow and weak: "You will not be afraid at any time, because you have a sense of security, you know that you can go home after being injured, and I will never abandon you, but what about me? You've never given me any certainty, you can leave at any time, you don't care who I am, what happens to me at that time, you don't care. ”

Fang Xiao looked at him in a daze, as if he didn't understand what he was saying at all. His eyes were also dull in the shadows, like coals that are about to be extinguished. He let go of her hand and leaned back in his chair, the faint smoke of the cigarette wafting up, and the cigarette butt was extinguished like a ruby.

January is the coldest season.

Fang Xiao hugged the fur lightly, but still couldn't stop the bone-chilling cold, Chu Mingrui had already opened the car door, held the roof of the car, let her sit in the car, and thoughtfully turned up the heating before saying to her, "Is it cold?" Endure it for a while and get home. ”

Fang Xiao shook his head. Chu Mingrui said: "There is a party tonight, do you want to go?" "PARTY, do you want to go?"

She asked, "Who is the treat?" ”

"An Jiancheng's engagement banquet." "So it's all in pairs. Fang Xiao nodded, and Chu Mingrui asked again: "Do you want to go back to the company to work, so as not to be bored at home." Fang Xiao asked, "Didn't you tell me not to go to work a few days ago?" ”

He said, "It's better for you to stay with me." As soon as the words came out, I felt that there seemed to be some pun suspicion, so I smiled, held her hand and said, "Your hands are so cold." ”

She withdrew her hand, because she felt awkward, and lowered her head, but saw that he had put the white gold wedding ring on his ring finger at some point, so she smiled lightly: "What's the matter, what do you want to use it to remind yourself?" ”

Chu Mingrui shook his head: "Where did you think of it?" Originally, I didn't wear it because I didn't have the habit of wearing it, but now I wear it because I can get used to it. ”

Fang Xiao smiled silently: "The words are becoming more and more philosophical. ”

Chu Mingrui didn't answer, Fang Xiao always felt that since he said that in the hospital last time, he was indifferent to himself, no matter what she said or did, he blindly agreed, but he was not enthusiastic.

Originally, he doted on her very much, and always led her to play and play, but now although he also led her to play, there was always that faint look on his face, like a person who has long been an adult watching a child play peek-a-boo with relish.

In terms of children, that may be the happiest thing, but in the eyes of an adult, although he does not directly accuse the child of being naïve and boring, there will always be that kind of faint expression on his face, this situation makes Fang Xiao have an indescribable chagrin, and she always wants to lose her temper, but his tepid tone makes it difficult for her to have a seizure.

In the evening, the husband and wife both went to the night banquet in the house.

Although the weather is very cold, the clothes and sideburns in the An family mansion are worthy of the name, and the lights are bright and green. The wine was warm and fragrant, Fang Xiao chatted with a group of wives about clothing and jewelry, and talked about the jewelry of the newcomers.

Mrs. Wang was the most scathing, and said openly: "I can't get rid of the childishness, although the engaged diamond has more than ten carats, how can it compare to the famous diamonds of several old families in the city." ”

A group of wives naturally cheered: "Of course, the 'supreme' of the Wang family, which has been passed down for five generations, is a veritable supreme." ”

Fang Xiao was holding a glass of wine anyway, only smiling and not speaking. Listening to a group of pampered wives and sisters, I heard someone shouting: "Miss Fang." It startled her, for she had not heard of it for a long time.

Turning around, some unfamiliar faces made her slightly stunned, and then she remembered it, and immediately smiled and stretched out her hand: "Mr. Fu." ”

Fu Pei is a crisis management expert.

He was still polite, shook her hand and said, "I'm glad to see you." ”

Fang Xiao knew that a professional like him had always been like this, so he asked, "Mr. Fu is coming to this city for official business?" ”

Fu Pei nodded, a group of wives had already paid attention to him. Mrs. Zhuo was the first to ask: "This gentleman is so good-looking, I don't know your surname?" ”

Fang Xiao had no choice but to introduce to them: "This is Mr. Fu Pei, a crisis management expert, who is very famous in the Chinese business circle. He also introduced to Fu Pei, "This is Mrs. Zhuo, this is Mrs. Wang, and this is Mrs. Zhou." ”

Fu Pei nodded in courtesy. Mrs. Wang was dismissive and asked, "Mr. Fu, I heard that your profession is designed to give advice to people, just like a military advisor, right?" ”

Fang Xiao was afraid that Fu Pei would be embarrassed, so she hurriedly showed her sweet smile and said, "Mr. Fu is an independent professional, and any CASE is worth hundreds of millions of cases. "CASE is worth hundreds of millions of cases."

Mrs. Wang smiled a little: "Oh, it turns out that Mr. Fu has done something like this." When do I have to recommend it to my husband, he always complains that the company's planning department is a bunch of stupid people. ”

Fang Xiao took the opportunity to say, "Mr. Fu, let me introduce you to my grandson?" ”

Fu Pei was originally an expert in dealing with all kinds of emergencies, and he couldn't understand what Fang Xiao meant, so he nodded, and the two walked out of the wife's circle together.

Fu Pei said, "Thank you. ”

Fang Xiao said: "No thanks. I know the pain of being caught in a group of rich and ignorant wives. ”

Mr. Fu smiled and said, "Miss Fang is quick to talk. ”

Fang Xiao said, "It's over." Seeing that Chu Mingrui had seen himself, he raised his hand to signal, Chu Mingrui came over, Fang Xiao introduced him to Fu Pei, but Chu Mingrui said: "We know, we worked together the year before last." ”

The three of them talked casually, from the business world to various models of crisis management, Chu Fu and the two of them talked more and more speculatively, and Fang Xiao had been abandoning business for a long time, listening to them chat for a while, they had talked about the current situation in the business world, which she couldn't interject, so she walked away to eat, and when she came back after a while, the dance party had already begun, and Chu Mingrui was waiting for her alone and invited her to dance.

After dancing two dances, Chu Mingrui suddenly asked, "You say, who will invite Fu Pei to come to the stage?" ”

Fang Xiao didn't care, and said casually: "Then who knows." ”

Chu Mingrui seemed to have a flash of inspiration: "I know." ”

Fang Xiao asked, "Who is it?" ”

Chu Mingrui smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about it. Fang Xiao has always had a dispensable attitude towards official affairs now, and when he heard him say this, he didn't ask anymore.

Fang Xiao decided to go to work in the company the next day, so he got up early in the morning and went to the company with Chu Mingrui. She was originally in charge of the situation in the whole of Asia, but Chu Mingrui was afraid that she would be too busy, so he only assigned the Far East to let her be responsible, and the company only operated some oil wells in the Far East, which was relatively leisurely.

During lunch, Chu Mingrui made an appointment with someone else, so she ate alone in the restaurant. As soon as I came out of the restaurant after eating, I happened to meet the secretary, so I asked, "Who did Mr. Chu date?" ”

The secretary hesitated, but still told her: "I made an appointment with the third lady of the Xu family." ”
