Chapter 20: Broken Mirror Reunion

"Ahh

With a roar-like sound, Zhao Yuexiao woke up and found herself lying in a strange room, and suddenly let out an earth-shattering scream.

The unfamiliar room, the naked body, the neatly washed clothes next to her, she felt that it was all terrible.

Last night was just for the company's business, drinking with some people, and I was almost drunk, although I can't remember what happened after that, I only knew that I was carried away.

But what is the situation now?

Could it be that she unknowingly became the heroine of the domineering president's article on a certain website?

I have to say that this kind of development is really terrible.

As soon as Zhao Yuexiao thought of this, her silver teeth gritted and swore that she would never let go of that beast.

"What's wrong? Is it because you are not feeling well? At this moment, Du Yuan pushed open the door and walked in with a basin of hot water, wrung out the soaked towel and handed it to Zhao Yuexiao, "Wipe your body." You drank too much last night, and now you're sweaty, you can't clean up. ”

"Mom! Why are you here? Could it be that you are also-" Zhao Yuexiao saw her mother appear here, her face was shocked, and she suddenly felt scared.

If even my mother was poisoned, it would be really terrible.

Du Yuan shook his head, with an indescribable nostalgia on his face, and said, "Don't you remember it yet?" This is our former home! ”

"Home?"

Zhao Yuexiao was full of confusion, swept around, and suddenly felt that everything in front of her was somewhat familiar.

The room was quite clean, but the walls were mottled, the furniture was old, the sun was shining, the breeze was blowing, and the hanging wind chimes were also blown to bring out the sound of "ding dong", and she suddenly remembered what happened when she was a child.

At that time, she was only six or seven years old, and she didn't seem to have anything else to worry about except messing around with her brother all day.

It's just that all of this disappeared as she grew up.

"What the hell is going on?"

Zhao Yuexiao looked at her mother with confused eyes, wanting to know the reason.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and a calm male voice came in, "Hey, it's too late if you don't eat." And he seemed to understand the situation in the room, and did not push the door in, but leaned against the wall next to him, talking through the room.

"That guy?"

Zhao Yuexiao suddenly felt a little familiar, took the clothes from the cabinet next to her and put them on quickly, pushed open the door and immediately found the man next to her, her eyes suddenly became sharp, and she shouted: "Hey, who are you?" How did you get into this villa? ”

"Is it okay to speak with honorifics? I'm also your brother anyway, but I didn't expect you to be like that without seeing you for ten years. I don't know how to protect myself. ”

Zhao Wuji knocked Zhao Yuexiao's head, making her have to cover her head and stare at herself angrily, and raised her voice and said, "Come down and eat." Otherwise, you'll be late, Yuexiao! With that, he turned away and stepped into the kitchen to prepare a hearty breakfast.

"Yuexiao?"

Zhao Yuexiao's face was slightly stunned, and when she suddenly heard this somewhat familiar shout, she couldn't help but feel in a trance.

Once upon a time, when she was a child, every day after oversleeping, there would be a person who called herself like this, could the person in front of her really be that person?

It's just that the girl who is jumping down quickly next to her shatters her dream, and the slightly immature voice should sit down at the table and start eating breakfast. And in the distance, the conversation between the two of them smiling suddenly became a little dazzling for some reason, making her originally thawed heart tremble slightly.

"Mom, what the hell is going on?" The corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and she asked Du Yuan who came out.

Du Yuan smiled: "It's very simple, your brother, Zao Wouji, is back." ”

"Brother? How can it be? ”

Zhao Yuexiao looked at the young and handsome man with a look of surprise, her eyes were incredible, but her eyes immediately fell on Yuexiao and asked, "But what's the matter with that girl?" Actually take the same name as me? ”

"It's adoption. Her parents died in the war and were later adopted. ”

Du Yuan gently patted Zhao Yuexiao's shoulder and said with a smile: "Of course." Our family hasn't seen each other for ten years, and now we're finally together. You go brush your teeth and wash up first, and then come down to eat later. ”

"Oh, I see."

Zhao Yuexiao walked into the bathroom on the side with a stomach full of doubts, and began to tidy up her appearance.

In order to ensure that she wears makeup when meeting clients, she must dress up well, otherwise she will feel uneasy even if she goes out. When she walked down the stairs, she also saw Zao Wou-Ki smiling as the other person walked out of the house and into the school bus.

She couldn't help but open her mouth and scolded lightly: "Disgusting sister control." Actually gave his own sister's name to the adoptee? Could it be that you have awakened some perverted hobby? ”

"It's just a repetition of names, so there's no need to be so exaggerated!"

Zao Wou-Ki retorted unceremoniously: "But why did you come down so late?" The food is cold, but it doesn't taste good. ”

"Cut. Every day the moon dawns and the moon screams affectionately, are you sure you won't have any special hobbies for the little girl? The thought of you being my brother makes me feel sick. Zhao Yuexiao's mouth was relaxed, and her mellow tone brought out a slip of vinegar.

She didn't know what was wrong, anyway, when she saw that little girl being spoiled by Zao Wou-ki, she felt full of sourness in her heart, especially when calling each other's names, she was full of loss and of course complaining.

Who called this guy, he ran away from home for ten years and didn't see each other because of his manly self-esteem or something?

With this in mind, Zhao Yuexiao's expression staring at Zhao Wuji was also a little suspicious.

"You're good then? It's not like you need help when you're in danger. You don't know how to protect yourself when you're an adult, do you know what you'd be in if I hadn't shown up? Zao Wou-Ki brought up the fried poached eggs, moved a stool and sat down, and looked at his sister with a look of scrutiny.

Zhao Yuexiao was not to be outdone, she also raised her head and looked at Zhao Wouji with a little provocation.

In ten years, time has left traces on the two of them.

One is mighty and strong, and the other is young and beautiful.

The demeanor of young people blooms in them like this, and because of the tempering of the years, it is even more decisive.

They are like two flowers branching off from the same locust tree, each accumulating rich nutrients, and has begun to mature and is ready to bloom anytime and anywhere, releasing their own style.

"Cut!"

After staring at each other for a long time, the two of them turned their heads at the same time and let out a snort.

Du Yuan couldn't help laughing and said, "Sure enough, they are two brothers and sisters." I haven't seen you for many years, so let's talk about it first. ”

"No, I have something to do next. Can't you be like someone, idle at home all day, being a jobless vagrant? Zhao Yuexiao raised her wrist and looked at the time, and immediately stood up and took the small bag next to her, just about to leave here.

"Please. I'm a military member in public service, but I have some time so I come back on vacation, is there anything wrong with that? ”

Zao Wou-Ki rolled his eyes, threw a key over, and saw Zhao Yuexiao's disdainful eyes again, and immediately explained: "By the way, I didn't bring your car." You'll use my car first! Rest assured, this is a private purchase of mine, not a military vehicle. But where are you going? ”

"Civil Affairs Bureau!" Zhao Yuexiao was simply open, and said nonsense: "Change the name, so as not to have the same name as your 'godsister'." May I? ”

Seeing that he was despised again, Zao Wou-Ki also understood that the name of "pervert" on his body was difficult to clean, and he was angry in his heart and opened his mouth to retort: "Change your name, then what will I call you in the future?" Xiao Zhao? Sounds like a man. Of course you're a man's wife! ”

"Dawn! May I? ”

Zhao Yuexiao flicked her shoulder-length hair, opened Zao Wou-ki's car and got into it neatly, and ran away as soon as she slipped away.

Such a crisp and neat appearance is the same as when he was a child, but every time after Zhao Yuexiao couldn't finish it, Zhao Wouji had to step forward to solve these things properly.

No way, who called her his sister?

Zao Wou-Ki shook his head slightly, broke his thoughts out of his past memories, looked at Du Yuan and asked, "By the way, Mom." Can you tell me a little bit about what your company is doing right now? I remember that the man wasn't the chairman of Bethlehem Steel? It is known as the second largest steel group in China. Why is it suddenly on the verge of bankruptcy? Zao Wou-Ki was surprised by his mother's current condition, after all, the Bethlehem Steel Company, which he had also seen in the army's internal journals, was an old factory with strong technology.

Since its establishment, it has a history of 128 years, and the high-strength steel plates, high-precision bearings, and various alloy steels produced by Bethlehem Iron and Steel Company are widely used in submarines, warships, armored vehicles, tanks, and artillery.

And such a large enterprise is actually on the verge of bankruptcy?

"No, it's not the second, in fact, if it weren't for the accumulation of history, it wouldn't even be in the top ten. After all, with the signing of the 'Pan-China Alliance Contract', foreign steel companies have poured in, and the market competition is fierce. So much so that even the salaries of the company's employees cannot be paid, and one-third of them have already submitted their resignation letters. ”

Du Yuan's expression was gloomy, he lowered his head and sighed and said: "And because he was exhausted, he was busy on the front line every day, but he was caught off guard and died unexpectedly." I had no choice but to come out and see if there was any way to solve the company's problems. ”

"What about their family? I remember that Bethlehem Steel was a family business, and there should have been other people besides him. Zao Wou-Ki felt displeased, and he also felt disgusted with the Bai clan who had destroyed his family.

"They? In fact, without them, perhaps the company would have been able to come back to life. But now? Alas! ”

Du Yuan's eyes were blank, she felt extremely tired, and she couldn't help leaning back on the sofa, her heart full of confusion.

The wealthy aristocrat is not so easy, she may have chosen to marry that person with a rich life, but after ten years, she found that such a life trapped by the family was not comfortable at all.

"Take me around, maybe I can help."

Zao Wou-Ki pondered for a moment, then stood up and said to his mother.

Although he is only a small military officer, the current government has suddenly discovered a wormhole and is preparing to open up resources from another world.

If he can take advantage of this opportunity, maybe his mother's company can come back to life, and the reason why he chose to help is just because he doesn't want to make his mother uncomfortable.
