She stared at the door of the study, tears welling up in her eyes.

She turned away as if she were running away, got into the elevator, and pressed the "3" with trembling fingers.

Back in the bedroom, she locked the door and went into the bathroom.

She leaned against the bathroom door, tears streaming down her face.

It turned out that the company that was extremely important to her was just a small broken company in his eyes, a garbage company that wouldn't let him raise his eyelids even if it disappeared!

That's what he really thinks in his heart.

He, like those people, never put her on an equal footing with him.

All her efforts, all her persistence, is probably a joke in his eyes.

She thought he was different, at least not to her...

Can...

Su Yimo wiped the tears on her face, and hooked the corners of her mouth sarcastically and sadly.

Everyone thinks she's climbing up to him, even him.

She just wants their respect, that's the most basic requirement, why... But it's so hard!

For the sake of a relationship, she sent herself to these people to bear their contempt, insults, spittling, really... Is it worth it?

When did she live such a humble life again?

It was as if she had gone back to five years ago, back to that time when she was embarrassed and unbearable.

I don't know how long I cried.

Tired of crying, Su Yimo walked to the sink and looked at her swollen walnut-like eyes in the mirror.

She sighed faintly, washed her face with cold water, went out of the bedroom, found an ice pack, and compressed her eyes, until they were not so swollen, she lay on the bed and closed her eyes.

But her eyes were closed, but she couldn't fall asleep, tossing and turning, tossing and turning, until two o'clock in the morning she was sleepy, and fell asleep in a daze.

The next day, early in the morning.

Su Yimo opened her eyes sleepily, looked at the time, and sat up strugglingly.

She was really sleepy and really wanted to sleep for a few more hours.

But time doesn't allow, she still has to get up to go to work, and she has to face Andy's face full of anticipation.

When she thought about it, she felt like a fight.

"Mommy, why are your dark circles so big? Didn't you sleep well? ”

Xiaobao rubbed his eyes and sat up, and when he saw Su Yimo's panda eyes, he was instantly frightened, blinked his big eyes, stared at her, and asked.

"Well, I didn't sleep well last night, do I have really big dark circles? Is it so exaggerated, hey, it's really unusual. ”

Su Yimo picked up her mobile phone and took a photo, and she was also startled.

"I'm going to have to get up and get myself an eye mask remedy."

Su Yimo sighed, put down her phone, lifted the quilt with a sad face, and got out of bed.

Dining room, at the dining table.

Gu Lichen poured Su Yimo a cup of soy milk, pushed it in front of her, frowned and asked, "How are you... The face is so bad? Didn't you sleep well? ”

"Well, I didn't sleep too well."

Su Yimo held the hot soy milk and took a sip.

"Still worried about the company? Don't believe me? Don't worry, I will definitely help you solve it if I say help me. ”

Gu Lichen smiled and touched her little head.

"Well, Mommy, don't worry, Daddy is the most talkative man I've ever met."

Xiaobao took a sip of milk, licked his lips, patted Gu Lichen's ass, and looked at Su Yimo with a smile.

"yes, I know."

Su Yimo pulled the corners of her mouth stiffly, lowered her head, held a spoon, and ate wontons silently.

Gu Lichen saw her depressed appearance, thinking that she was unwell because she didn't sleep well, and didn't think much about it.

…

Firm.

"Yimo, needless to say, I'll know the result by looking at your face."

Andy propped his arms on the table, rubbing his temples, and his face pressed against the table.

"Otherwise... Let's go see Lu Chuan again? ”

"He won't see us, I know him, he's a guy who doesn't waste time on useless things."

Andy took a breath, got up, tore the bag of coffee, walked to the water dispenser with the cup, took half a glass of water, and kept stirring it with a spoon.

"Then we... Andy, can you still hold on? ”

Su Yimo walked behind Andy, held her thin shoulders, red eyes, and said apologetically and sadly.

"I'm fine, I've been working for so many years, I haven't experienced anything, it's nothing to me, I'll go to him again."

Andy took a sip of coffee and patted Su Yimo's shoulder.

"But... Didn't you say he wouldn't see us? ”

"I'll wait for him at his house, he can't help but go home, right?"

Andy said with a sad smile on his lips.

"You... Well, then pay attention to yourself. ”

Although Su Yimo was curious about Andy and Lu Chuan's past, she didn't want to say it, so she didn't ask.

"Well, don't worry, I'm measured."

…

In the dark corridor, the fireworks are either bright or out.

Andy leaned against the cold iron door, tilted his head, took a deep breath, and exhaled a cloud of white smoke.

The cold chill seeped into her skin through the thin clothes and melted into her body.

She didn't seem to notice it.

She's distracted, thinking about things.

I wonder when she started smoking.

I guess it was the year he left.

Ever since he left, she had been suffering from insomnia all night long, unable to sleep, and in order to pass the time, she learned to smoke.

Sometimes, she can smoke a box in one night.

She was punishing herself in this almost masochistic way.

After smoking, she threw the cigarette butt on the ground and trampled it to death, then picked it up and threw it in the trash.

The elevator "ding" sounded.

She heard the sound and pulled the door open a crack to look out, and the light suddenly shot in, and she frowned in discomfort.

The elevator door opened, and a tall, cold figure stepped out of it.

When Andy saw Lu Chuan, his dull eyes lit up instantly.

She pushed the door open and walked out, stopping in front of him.

She looked at him, and he looked at her, and the two looked at each other, some with complicated expressions, and some with expressionless faces.

A few seconds later, Lu Chuan bypassed her as if he didn't see him and continued to walk towards the apartment.

"Stop!"

Andy stared at his back, his eyes reddened, and stopped him.

Lu Chuan paused and continued to walk forward.

"Lu Chuan!"

Andy bit his lip and caught up with him, holding his arm.

"Let it go."

Lu Chuan glared at her, his eyes as sharp as a knife.

But when he saw her tear-stained face, his eyes trembled slightly.

"Lu Chuan, I know you hate me and want to take revenge on me, but if you have anything to do with me, don't target my company, this company is very important to me, I have paid a lot for it, I can't lose it."

Andy held Lu Chuan's arm and said with tears streaming down his face in a trembling voice.

"Then you can trick a man into helping you as before, isn't this what you've always used?"

Lu Chuan pushed her hand away, and sneered at the corner of his mouth.

"Lu Chuan, I know it's wrong, how long do you have to punish me before you are satisfied? You think I'm having a good time, don't you? No, I'm not sad at all, I've been regretting and suffering for the past few years..."

Andy looked at Lu Chuan's cold side face, and reached out to hold his arm again, but he was ruthlessly dodged away.

"Well, I feel it, the smell of smoke on your body is heavy, and it's disgusting."

After Lu Chuan finished speaking, he didn't look at her, walked to the door, and opened the door with his fingerprints.

The door opened, but he didn't go in at once.

He stood in the doorway and threw out a word.

"Don't worry, I will continue to cooperate with HK in the future."

With that, he closed the door and entered, leaving Andy alone in the hallway, staring at the door in disbelief.

She heard her right, right? He just said... Will he continue to work with HK?

She's not hallucinating, is she?

Unexpectedly... It's that easy?

She had prepared a lot of words, a lot of things she hadn't said yet.

Only...

Andy wiped tears from his face, turned around, and walked to the elevator door like in a dream.

She walked out of the apartment, and under the dim street lamp, she looked up, looked at the crescent moon hanging in the sky, and smiled comfortably at the corner of her mouth.

No matter what his reasons are or what his intentions are, at least, HK can live.

Turn back the clock and turn back to noon today.

President's Office.

Xiang Bai came in and put a stack of materials on Gu Lichen's desk.

"This is the latest internal information of the Lu Group, President, do you really want to... For Miss Su to be the enemy of the Lu family? ”

Xiang Bai frowned, looking worried.

"Remember, there is only a partnership in business, not a friend."

Gu Lichen flipped through the information and looked at it page by page, and continued, "Do you think I will be satisfied with the business territory I have now? I'm going to keep expanding, and sooner or later I'm going to meet them, and when the time comes, either I'll swallow them or they'll swallow me. ”

Gu Lichen glanced at the ten lines, and quickly looked through the information.

"They want that piece of land east of the city? Then we will get it before them, and then use it as a bargaining chip to force him to compromise. ”

Gu Lichen threw the information on the table, and his fingers tapped on the table regularly.

Xiang Bai: "But... Won't they be prepared? ”

"No, Lu Chuan called me yesterday, and my words were enough to make him let down his guard."

Gu Lichen got up, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window with his tall body, like a lion, squinting at his kingdom.

…

In the evening, before leaving work.

Gu Lichen put down the phone, a smile on the corner of his mouth, and looked at Xiang Baidao, "It's done." ”

Xiang Bai also smiled, "I didn't expect Lu Chuan to care so much about that piece of land." ”

"Of course he cares, and with that piece of land, he can legitimately enter real estate."

Gu Lichen crossed Erlang's legs, flicked the cigarette ash, his posture was lazy, and he was strategizing.

"The president is amazing!" Xiang Bai nodded with respect from the bottom of his heart.

"Less sycophants and get to work."

But Gu Lichen didn't eat him at all, raised his hand, and threw a stack of folders on the table into his arms.

…

At night.

Lu Chuan, who was threatened by Gu Lichen with a piece of land and had to make concessions, returned to the apartment with a frosty face, and met Andy as soon as he got out of the elevator.

He looked at Andy's tearful appearance, although he knew that she had acting ingredients, he was still flustered and irritable, he pushed her hand away, threw down the words she wanted to hear the most, and opened the door and entered the apartment.
