Chapter 54: The Man in the Mirror
When Shen Yanzhi flipped through the last page of the document, Gu Yun opened his mouth: "Determine what number Gu's board of directors is." ”
When he said this, he paused and said firmly: "I will go myself." ”
"Boss?" Shen Yanzhi frowned, uncertain, "Are you going to ...... Go like this? His gaze stayed on Gu Yun's legs.
Gu Yun hooked the corners of his lips and disagreed: "It's been two years, I don't want to pretend." “
"But ......" Shen Yanzhi was a little worried: "If Old Man Gu knew that you were pretending for the past two years, would it be more ......?"
Before he finished speaking, Gu Yun already understood.
Shen Yanzhi was afraid that Old Man Gu regarded him pretending to be disabled as a means for him to compete for the family property, just as he thought he was fighting for the family property two years ago.
Even if it would be like this, he had no scruples, Gu Yun smiled self-deprecatingly: "It doesn't matter. ”
He doesn't want to get his grandfather's approval now, he just wants to pull Gu Xu off the stage. He has always held grudges, and the account of the car accident should also be calculated with Gu Xu......
Taking advantage of Shen Yanzhi's time to look through the documents, Gu Yun had already looked up at the corridor on the second floor several times, but there was no movement, I don't know if Qian Jiu is hiding in the quilt and crying now.
Thinking of this, Gu Yun instantly felt that Shen Yanzhi sitting on the sofa was very eye-catching, and when he saw him finish turning the last page, Gu Yun squinted his eyes and said meaningfully: "Do you have a number in your heart?" ”
Shen Yanzhi didn't raise his head, and replied casually: "En." ”
“……”
Count and still don't leave?
Gu Yun frowned, and said a little impatiently: "Since there are numbers, what are you still looking at?" ”
At this moment, Shen Yanzhi finally noticed the irritability in Gu Yun's tone, and when he raised his head, he saw Gu Yun's condensed eyes, "Boss, boss......"
Inexplicably, he was a little weak-hearted, Shen Yanzhi hurriedly put away the scattered documents and put them back in the file bag, and before Gu Yun could open his mouth to chase away the guests, he consciously stood up and said respectfully: "Jian Su will hand over to me, and after the Gu family's board of directors sets a date, I can start arranging it here." ”
"Yes."
Gu Yun didn't want to listen to these trivial matters now, so he answered casually.
Shen Yanzhi saw Gu Yun's absent-mindedness, he raised his hand to straighten the front of his suit, picked up the documents on the coffee table and said, "Do you still have to put the documents in the study?" ”
"Let it go." Gu Yun raised his eyebrows, and the annoyance in his tone was obvious.
"Then ......" Shen Yanzhi pulled the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, and took two steps towards the gate of the manor: "I'll go first." ”
This time, Gu Yun didn't respond, his eyes drifted to the railing on the second floor, and his thoughts were a little confused.
He was hesitating whether to go upstairs directly, and he was afraid that his sudden movements would scare the timid Qianjiu.
After thinking about it for a while, Gu Yun still chose to move his wheelchair to the elevator, and when he entered the elevator, he remembered Shen Yanzhi, who had left at some point.
Still a little self-aware, Gu Yun laughed sullenly.
After getting out of the elevator, he moved straight to the door of Qianjiu's room, I don't know if it was because of the sound insulation, there was no sound in the door.
He was silent for a long time before knocking softly on Qianjiu's door.
Gu Yun was very patient, and waited at the door of the room for ten minutes, but there was no sound in the door, and finally, he could only call softly: "Jiu'er......"
“……”
The response was silence.
In the room, Qian Jiu was sobbing quietly in the dark, and the four wardrobe doors shone through the cracks in the shutters, and she could faintly hear Gu Yun's deep voice calling her: Jiu'er.
But she wasn't.
Gu Yun already knew it, why did he call her like this.
The more Qian Jiu thought about it, the more aggrieved she became, and her tears flowed uncontrollably, and her knees curled up in front of her were already wet with tears.
There was silence for a long time, and the noise outside the door seemed to have stopped, and Qianjiu was still curled up in the corner of the closet, not daring to move half a step.
Before she knew it, she was crying a little deprived of oxygen, and her head was unconscious in a bout of dizziness.
When Gu Yun opened the door of Qianjiu's room, what caught his eyes was empty, and for a moment, his heart skipped a beat, and then, he turned his head to glance at the bathroom, and strode to the bathroom door, which was still empty.
He couldn't help but whisper: "Jiu'er? ”
He was met with silence.
The lobby is the only way out of this building, and it is clear that Qianjiu has not left the manor, and with her timid style, she must not dare to run around in the manor, except for her own room, he can't think of where else she can hide.
"Thousand September." I couldn't see Qian Jiu's figure, Gu Yun, who had always been calm and self-controlled, was faintly anxious, and even his voice was a little cautious: "Qian Jiu!" Come out! ”
This time, he finally heard a slight noise, a whimper similar to that of a milk cat.
When Gu Yun heard the sound, he turned his head sharply, and the light blue four-door wardrobe that occupied one wall was impressively reflected in front of him, he suddenly understood, and strode towards the wardrobe.
Standing in front of the wardrobe door, Gu Yun could clearly hear the sound coming from the wardrobe through the cracks in the shutters on the wardrobe door.
"Woo......"
Like a cry, but not a cry.
Gu Yun didn't hesitate for too long, he opened the wardrobe door, and the picture that caught his eyes made the tip of his heart that had been sealed for a long time suddenly throb.
I saw Qianjiu nestled in a pile of clothes, her face was flushed, the sweat on her forehead had flowed down her cheeks to her neck, her eyes were tightly closed, her brows were always frowning, and there was no tendency to relax at all.
"Woo woo......" Her throat kept making such aggrieved sounds, as if she was asking for help from the light, and she curled up in the darkness, as if waiting for redemption.
Qianjiu, what is it that makes you who you are now?
Gu Yun's brows furrowed, he squatted down, reached out and gently stroked the wrinkles on Qian Jiu's forehead, and there were sticky tears around her eyes.
"I'm not Jiu'er......" her voice was quiet, but hysterical, "I'm not ......"
"Okay, good ......" Gu Yun coaxed softly: "I know, you are not Jiu'er." ”
Qian Jiujiu's eyes never opened, but he seemed to hear Gu Yun's voice, and he loosened his brows, "Woo......"
In the darkness, Qianjiu was surrounded by smooth mirrors.
She sat in the middle of the mirror, buried her head in her knees, not daring to look up. She didn't dare to look at the person in the mirror.
"Thousand September." The wanton voice continued to wrap around her ears, "Coward." ”
"Coward!" The immature voice echoed from another direction.
"I'm not ......" Qian Jiu still lowered his head and retorted sullenly.
"Isn't it?" The mocking voice was filled with disdain, "It's not that you're afraid of what?" Didn't Gu Shao know about your illness? ”
"I ......" Qianjiu wanted to refute, but she couldn't say anything, she could only close her eyes and keep convincing herself that she was not afraid.
"You want to hide again." It's the same as her own voice, but the tone is very different, "Don't be afraid!" ”
"That's right! Thousand September is a coward! The milky voice kept pounding her heart.
"Coward! Coward......"
"I'm not...... No! Qianjiu squatted and sat with her hands tightly on her ears, she didn't want to hear her own disgust and mock herself.
Suddenly, a beam of light faintly came from a corner of the darkness, and a soft voice sounded above her head: "Qianjiu? ”
It's calling her!
Not calling the person in the mirror!
"September?" This time, the sound is softer.
Qianjiu slowly let go of the hand covering her ears, and her moist eyes blinked.
"Why?"
The deep voice asked suddenly, and there seemed to be a bit of ...... in his tone Distressed?
What why? Qianjiu lifted her head from between her knees in confusion, and the tears on her face blurred her little face.
But she didn't have time to pay attention to her appearance now, and she followed the magnetic voice to see a light.
In the middle of the darkness, the mirrors around her were shiny, and the two figures who had mocked her wantonly just now had disappeared, replaced by herself with tears on her face.
Qian Jiu blinked her sour eyes, she looked up at the light source, where it was blank, and only the soft sound that kept coming could be heard.
"What did the Qianjia do to you?"
Gu Yun took Qian Jiu out of the closet with a gentle movement, he knew that he would not get a response from Qian Jiu, but he still couldn't help but ask: "The Mu family is ...... again." How did it happen to you? ”
Why does a good person form such a cocooning disease?
Chijiu sat helplessly in the dark, she wanted to answer, but she didn't know how to speak.
She had never thought about it.
Qianjia and Mu family, one is her father and the other is her mother......
As parents, what should they do to her, Qianjiu has no way of knowing the answer, so she can only keep comparing herself with her peers.
For example, Mu Chengxin, and for example, Qianmuzhao.
She always thought that the problem was herself, that she was not good enough, that she had a bad personality, so she was not likable.
But is that really the case?
In order to cater to everyone, she smoothed out all the edges and corners of her life.
However, now, she has never received the affection she craves, and she has never been recognized by anyone.
No matter what she endeavored to, she was someone who wasn't supposed to exist in the first place.
It's like the Mu family's dislike of her.
She is a stain, a person destined to be spurned.
Qianjiu lowered her eyes, tears in her eyes, which could fall at any time, and in the surrounding mirrors, another figure loomed.
"Since I feel like I shouldn't exist." In the mirror again, her own evil voice was heard, "Then die!" ”
The decisive and ruthless voice made Qian Jiu turn her head suddenly, and she looked at the figure in the mirror, slender and demonic, as if she was trapped in the mirror, waiting to escape at any time.
"You shouldn't exist." The person in the mirror didn't mean to be restrained, and the words that came out of her mouth were very cold.
Why?
There was a trace of stubbornness in Qianjiu's heart, she had finally lived in this world for more than 20 years, why did she die!
