In early autumn, the sky is blue and melancholy. The weather was cloudless, and only a few lines of airplanes appeared from time to time and dissipated. The sunny sky is more open than people, and there is no room for a trace.

Came to the company early, in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, An Xiaoxi didn't move a sip of coffee in his hand. The mood is bitter, even worse than coffee.

It has been more than half a month since I came to the United States and Canada, and things are progressing in an orderly manner, and everything is going well. But if everything goes too well, it is not normal. An Xiaoxi is suspicious, which is both a good thing and a bad thing.

The secretariat called, and a major customer visited.

An Xiaoxi connected to the internal line, and as soon as he heard the other party's voice, he understood that his worries were not superfluous.

This big customer is none other than her brother Leo. The chance encounter between the two on the plane was not accidental, and Leo also came to Japan on vacation.

What is he planning? Who is he trying to target? What was the purpose of his contact with An Xiaoxi? Everything is slowly coming to the surface.

Left-handed affection, right-handed love. An Xiaoxi, the woman at the center of the storm, waited quietly for the wind to blow.

"The confidentiality of major customers is really good, and they don't even tell me on the plane."

An Xiaoxi's tone was a little impulsive, and after realizing that he was very immature, he immediately sorted out his emotions to deal with it.

"I want to surprise you, are you free tomorrow? I'll come to the company to talk to you in detail. ”

Leo was very sincere, and only talked about work.

Hanging up the phone, An Xiaoxi breathed a long sigh of relief. She is actually very bottomless, Leo is a difficult person to deal with, and he is his own brother. I don't want to admit it. But now, I have to face it.

There was a knock on the door.

An Xiaoxi asked people to come in and talk. The one who came was Su Chenfeng.

……

"Yo! Big star, why are you here. ”

An Xiaoxi greeted Su Chenfeng warmly and asked the secretary to bring coffee, Su Chenfeng said that he only drank water, and pointed to the water on the table.

An Xiaoxi smiled and opened the two bottles.

Two friends, replace wine with water, toast.

"Congratulations to Mr. An for winning the USGA Group!"

Su Chenfeng smiled brightly, brighter than the sun outside the window. The golden sunlight shone on his face, and the delicate outline seemed to be plated with a soft layer of gold.

After not seeing him for many days, Su Chenfeng became thinner, his cheeks were a little sunken, and he was a little more sickly.

"Why, has the crew's food been so bad recently, you have lost weight like this."

An Xiaoxi sucked her cheeks hard, imitating Su Chenfeng's sunken face. Su Chenfeng was amused, in fact, he rarely laughed these days. Became depressed.

The drama was also pushed a lot, and I traveled to Nepal alone and stayed for a whole month before coming back. This pilgrimage made his skin darker, his eyes firmer, his body thinner, and his physique stronger.

"I didn't take the show, I just came back from Nepal and played a lap."

Su Chenfeng drank water, his slender fingers holding the drop-shaped bottle, and the picture was like an oil painting. An Xiaoxi looked at Su Chenfeng's appearance and secretly sighed, the creator is really great.

There is such an astonishing face in the world.

"What a happy person, you can go out and play, you look at me now, it's like being sentenced to life imprisonment, every day is either this office, or meeting customers everywhere, and I am very busy."

An Xiaoxi shrugged her shoulders and expressed helplessness. Su Chenfeng tasted a kind of confidence from her helplessness, it seems that An Xiaoxi does have some ability, she is not willing to be ordinary, compared to herself, Qiao Wenhan saw her potential earlier.

"It's happiness to be busy, how many people in the world don't have a chance to be busy."

Su Chenfeng smiled, drank a bottle of water, and his expression was like having drained a large glass of vodka.

"Big star, you came to Tokyo for a few days this time, I'm done with this busy time, I can accompany you to eat, drink and have fun, how about it? Exclusive tour guide. ”

"There's a movie audition tomorrow, Hollywood director, I'm going to try my luck. If it succeeds, it will be launched next year, and if it fails, it should be a visit. ”

Su Chenfeng turned around and sat on the sofa in front of the window, enjoying the cityscape outside the window.

An Xiaoxi felt that this time they met, Su Chenfeng changed a little. I can't tell where I've changed, but it's not as cheerful and relaxed as before.

Nearly thirty years old, Su Chenfeng finally has to face that important problem.

The heir of the Su Group couldn't escape, and the family once again threw the burden on him.

His father died young, and his mother was in poor health. The cousins and uncles in the family are also eyeing each other, coveting the family property left by his father.

I had a headache and went to Nepal for a month, but I couldn't cure this headache. I rely on sleeping pills to fall asleep every day, and I am often awakened by nightmares.

The film that came to Tokyo to audition has a team of directors and screenwriters that Su Chenfeng admires. If he wants to end his film and television career, he hopes that he can be satisfied with his farewell to the screen.

started with idol dramas, and was ignored because of his overly handsome appearance. Step by step, he has won many Asian film and television awards.

For the last time, do something truly worth remembering.

came to Tokyo to audition, and then looked at An Xiaoxi, who made him call in his dreams countless times.

"Big star? Big star? What do you think? ”

An Xiaoxi dangled his hand in front of Su Chenfeng's eyes, and Su Chenfeng realized that he had lost his mind just now. Recently, he has become easily distracted and has fallen into a meditative state and lost perception of his surroundings.

"Nothing. I see you're quite busy, so I won't bother you yet. I'll see you in the evening, and I'll treat you to dinner. ”

When Su Chenfeng left, his steps were obviously not as brisk as before. Ann Xiaoxi easily perceives these details. She was worried about Su Chenfeng. Because she knew Su Chenfeng's feelings for her, she didn't dare to live up to it, and she didn't dare to accept it.

Maybe he has really become a "bitch" in other people's mouths, with a pure appearance, but he plays with men's feelings in the palm of his hand. An Xiaoxi needs Su Chenfeng, he brings her a sense of close trust, like a friend, and like a relative. Compared with Qiao Wenhan's dangerous lover relationship, who is also friend and foe, Su Chenfeng made her relax.

I don't want to lose a friend like Su Chenfeng, but Su Chenfeng has never wanted to be just a friend.

The relationship between men and women is too complicated, and An Xiaoxi can't digest it. As long as you have a clear conscience, you have nothing to fear. For many years, she has lived by this principle.

However, he rejected Su Chenfeng from the door of love early, and when he needed Su Chenfeng to love, he had already gone away.

The utilitarian concept of love quietly came out of An Xiaoxi's heart, and she was stunned by this thought and began to hate her snobbery. Throwing her phone aside, An Xiaoxi looked out the window and fell into self-criticism.

……

"Mr. An, hello."

On the internal phone, the secretary's voice sounded a little uneasy, trembling slightly.

"What's wrong?"

An Xiaoxi put down the document in his hand and noticed the abnormality of the secretary.

"There are two Chinese criminal police officers at the front desk, applying to meet you."

An Xiaoxi chuckled in her heart, sure enough, the time to come is still here.

"Okay, you let them in, I'm in the office."

The two detectives were about forty years old, one fat and one thin, one wearing a dark green thin jacket and the other wearing a blue shirt, looking very energetic.

The secretary brought tea to the two, but neither of them drank a sip.

An Xiaoxi pretended to be calm and put on an unaware expression.

"The two of you are here today to investigate something, and I will definitely tell you what I know."

The two looked at each other, got straight to the point, and asked An Xiaoxi about the male corpse in the moat south of the city.

"On August 27, in the moat in the south of the city, there was an unknown male corpse, I believe Mr. An read the news and knew that this was a big case that caused a sensation in the city. We came this time to find clues to solve the case, and I hope that Mr. An will tell us everything he knows. ”

The fat detective spoke first, and at the same time closely observed the changes in An Xiaoxi's expression. A master of criminal psychology will always judge whether the other party is lying from the micro-expressions of the person.

An Xiaoxi's face was expressionless, and there was no change in gestures, and she patiently listened to the criminal police finish speaking. No hurry, no delay.

"We checked the identity of this man, and after DNA testing, we found that his name is Chen Hansheng, 23 years old, currently unemployed, and has complex social relationships, and has gambling behavior...... It's your ex-boyfriend. ”

The thin detective put the words ex-boyfriend at the end and emphasized. Prompt An Xiaoxi, they have already mastered a lot of information about her and Chen Hansheng, and asked her to tell everything she knows.

"We want to know whether you had any contact with the victim on the day of the crime, what your relationship was with the victim before, and whether you kept in touch."

The tone of the two criminal policemen was very polite, and An Xiaoxi smiled slightly after listening to it.

It doesn't do her any good to hide it and not report it. Being involved in such a vicious case, although it is disgraceful on the face, is the most important thing to get rid of the suspicion of murder.

"You two can come here to find me, you must have already checked a lot. To tell you the truth, on the day of the incident, I went to the Fangyuan Hotel in the south of the city. Because Chen Hansheng called me two days before the incident, saying that he had photos that were unfavorable to me and wanted to send them to the media. It should be an intimate photo I took when I was with him before. He threatened to extort me a million. On August 27th, I took my bank card and went to room 303 of the Chengnan Hotel, which was the place that Chen Hansheng had set, but when I got there, I found that the door was unlocked and no one was there. So I left......"

An Xiaoxi's explanation so quickly was beyond the expectations of the two criminal policemen.

"So Mr. An, do you have any impression of this package?"

The skinny detective gave a photo, which was a black plastic bag. An Xiaoxi couldn't remember, but after they reminded him, the bag was placed under the big bed in room 303 of Fangyuan Hotel.

"There are only two people's fingerprints on the bag, one is Chen Hansheng's, and the other is you, An Xiaoxi's."

An Xiaoxi's calm was completely broken, and she had looked for it under the bed, but she had never seen any black plastic bags at all.

Someone must be behind it.

"I don't know this, I thought Chen Hansheng was deliberately avoiding me, I also went under the bed and the big closet to check, but I didn't see this bag. If you want to talk about fingerprints, it's not strange that there are my on the sheets and on the wardrobe, but this big black bag, I really haven't seen it. ”

An Xiaoxi's tone hardened.

The criminal police gave another photo, which was a photo of the black plastic bag after it was opened. There was a full amount of renminbi in it, and the amount was exactly one million.
