178 Mr. Su three years later
Three years later, Washington, USA.
Su Yan sat in the huge office, with a mountain of materials on the desk, but she looked at it slowly, as if she was not in a hurry at all for so much work, and she was not worried about working overtime if she couldn't finish it, she had long been accustomed to it.
Halfway through, she got up and walked to the window, overlooking this urban forest made of steel and concrete, expressionless, living in the United States for three years, counting, she doesn't seem to have laughed much for three years, the company's employees have given her a nickname, called "Super Woman", to put it nicely, as if she is praising her ability, and if she doesn't sound good, she is not close to people.
Even Su Yan herself was thinking, where did the little boss who used to be reasonable and sympathetic to the suffering of his employees go, how could the more power he had, the more indifferent and ruthless he became?
She glanced at the time, Huo Mingyu's plane should have already arrived, for some reason, he hadn't arrived at her company for a long time, did he go directly to her uncle to play chess?
So, Su Yan made a phone call to Huo Mingyu, the other party was still turned off, maybe the plane was late, Su Yan thought, and returned to the desk to continue working.
Time passed minute by minute, Su Yan's work continued, until the whole building was probably only left with her and the security guard on duty in the security room, she picked up the phone again, called Huo Mingyu, and quickly answered the phone.
"Mingyu, have you arrived? Why didn't you see anyone? Su Yan asked.
"My uncle sent a driver to pick me up, and I'm waiting for you at my uncle's house now. If you don't come back, my uncle will probably have to stay up and play chess with me! Huo Mingyu's tone was very calm, not like it was emotional, it seemed that he had long been accustomed to it.
Su Yan smiled: "Okay, I'll go back now, let my uncle rest early!" ”
Hung up the phone, Su Yan shook her head helplessly, for some reason, her uncle just didn't like Huo Mingyu, every time Huo Mingyu came all the way to see her, she would always be robbed by her uncle, so Su Yan had no way at all.
Su Yan parked the car, and when she walked out of the garage, she saw a long figure standing under the street lamp from a distance, she couldn't help but smile, and walked a few steps forward to hug him: "Uncle didn't embarrass you, right?" ”
"No, be polite to me. It's just that the only thing I can't stand is that we didn't have much time together, and he had to deprive him of an afternoon of ......" Huo Mingyu hugged Su Yan and said helplessly.
Su Yan smiled, let go of him, took his hand and walked back, glanced at his uncle's room upstairs, and couldn't help but smile: "Look, his old man is not at ease after all!" ”
"I think I'd better go back to the hotel early, lest he worry and won't even be able to sleep well tonight." Huo Mingyu let go of Su Yan as he spoke.
"Shall I drive you there, then?" Su Yan asked.
Huo Mingyu shook his head and gently stroked Su Yan's head twice: "Then my uncle can't sleep even more." ”
So, Su Yan saw Huo Mingyu who was dragging his suitcase away, and the smile on his lips gradually disappeared.
"Yan'er, listen to my uncle's advice, we are not yet old enough to tear up the sale, are we? Don't embarrass yourself. I don't know when, my uncle walked out with his coat on, "Xiao Huo is indeed impeccable, but you don't feel like you're in love together, but like ordinary friends, there is no spark at all, and my uncle doesn't want to see you wronging yourself casually." ”
Su Yan shrunk her neck and said, "But uncle, you can't be a man without a conscience, right?" Mingyu He loves me very much and has done a lot for me, I really don't want to hurt him, and I'm trying to ...... Love him! ”
I saw my uncle shake his head: "You can't force emotional things, don't follow your uncle's old path." ”
Su Yan heard his uncle say that he insisted on marrying a woman who didn't love him, but in the end, he mistook himself and her deceased aunt's life, and later, he didn't marry again, so he kept the company and property left by his grandfather, and now it was finally handed over to Su Yan, and he was enjoying his old age, but he was still not at ease about this niece's marriage.
"Uncle is incompetent, and he has not been able to find any trace of your ex-husband. With all due respect, girl, your ex-husband is really a negative man who has no responsibility and no heart, and he evaporated from the world when you needed him the most......"
"Uncle!" Su Yan said unhappily: "How many times have I said it, it's that I don't want to see him again, and the evaporation of others in the world has fulfilled me." It's just that if I can't get the divorce agreement in a day, my heart is not steady, even if his friend has full authority to accept it for him, I also feel that he owes me an explanation. That's why I asked my uncle to help me find him! ”
The uncle smiled and put his arm around Su Yan's shoulders, and while taking her back to the house to avoid the cold wind, he coaxed her: "Okay, it's okay if my uncle can't express it clearly because of his improper words, right?" Uncle knows that you are a smart person who can handle your own personal affairs, and no matter what, you can't affect the development of the company, you know? ”
Su Yan nodded: "Then I'll go upstairs to my uncle." ”
In front of her uncle, Su Yan has always been a well-behaved, obedient and sensible child, and her uncle is indeed a thousand times better than Su Weisheng was to her back then, so she is willing to repay her uncle with her sincerity.
My uncle had no children, and he put all his hopes in her, and treated her like a daughter, so much so that for the past three years she has been living in her uncle's house.
She still remembers that when she first came to her uncle's house, her eyes were still in the recovery period, and she couldn't see, gradually, she saw in a relatively dim light, slowly adapted, and finally became exactly like a normal person, and her uncle spent this process with her.
She knows very well that her uncle is her relative, but Huo Mingyu is just her friend, but she gave up everything to be by her side when she needed help the most, she should repay him with everything she had, but unfortunately, Huo Mingyu was too proud, until now, they are still like friends, and there is no progress.
Huo Mingyu wanted Su Yan's love, even a little, Su Yan worked hard to love him, and sometimes, he even felt that he had given his love, but he said firmly that it was not love, just gratitude.
What does it take to really love him? Su Yan had a headache, and over time, it became like this, so let it be.
Huo Mingyu returned to the hotel, feeling physically and mentally exhausted, lying on the bed and not wanting to move. He didn't even have the strength to get up and take a shower after a long journey, he had never been so tired as he was today.
When Su Yan's phone called, he was drowsy, grabbed the phone, his voice was lazy, and when he heard Su Yan's voice coming from the earpiece, he gradually drove away the sleepiness.
"Slept?" Su Yan asked embarrassedly.
"It's okay, I want to hear from you." Huo Mingyu said gently.
"I'm sorry, tomorrow is a general meeting of shareholders, you can't be absent, it was originally scheduled for next week, but two uncles are going to return to China next week to visit relatives, so it was held in advance......"
Listening to Su Yan's apologetic voice, Huo Mingyu slowly opened his eyes and said lightly: "Work is important, I just received a call from the company, I have an urgent matter to go back to deal with, the coming day is long, we will not be busy after a while, I will come to see you again." ”
"Really? What time will you get your plane tomorrow? How unfortunate is that? Su Yan asked him with a frown on the other side.
"Erin has booked me a plane at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, you can work with peace of mind, don't worry about me, I will call you when I get to Zhoucheng."
"Well, have a nice trip!" Su Yan seemed to be about to hang up.
"Su Yan!" Huo Mingyu suddenly called her.
"Huh?"
"Do you love me a little bit in your heart now? Even if it's just a little bit. Huo Mingyu was silent for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to ask.
"Yes, Mingyu, didn't I tell you many times?" Su Yan said with a smile.
"I'm not joking with you, Su Yan, I'm asking you very seriously, and I hope you can think about it before answering me. If you love me, why do you never approach me? It's been three years, I've come to see you, wait for you, accompany you, Su Yan, are you really love? Is it really so passive to love someone? ”
Huo Mingyu said very sadly, Su Yan knew that her uncle and her actions today were indeed too much, which made Huo Mingyu feel that she really didn't care about him!
But Su Yan asked herself, does she love Huo Mingyu or not, can she accept his kisses, his caresses, and do love with him? The answer is no, she can't, she can't even do what she likes, she really doesn't love Huo Mingyu! They are just nominal boyfriend and girlfriend, and she, the girlfriend, is not competent at all.
"It hurts!" Huo Mingyu saw that Su Yan was silent for a long time, and laughed self-deprecatingly: "Blame me, it's me who thinks everything too simply." I thought that if I forgot Ze Zhou with you, you would fall in love with me, but I didn't expect that there is still a damn word in this world, which is just life! ”
"Mingyu ......"
"Don't say Su Yan, I'm not in a hurry, I can wait, if it doesn't work for three years, it's five years, if it doesn't work for five years, it's ten years, if it doesn't work for ten years, it's twenty years, I will keep waiting." Huo Mingyu's tone was inexplicably a little excited.
Su Yan told herself not to cry, but she still cried, Huo Mingyu is such a good person, he shouldn't be destroyed in her hands like this, if it goes on like this, I don't know if the ending still hurts him the most.
From beginning to end, what he wanted was not her as a person, his pride did not allow him to possess an empty skin, what he wanted was Su Yan's body, mind and soul!
"Forget it, let's talk about something happy!" Huo Mingyu laughed at his cowardice in his heart, he was afraid that if they continued to talk, their relationship would get out of control, so he directly changed the topic.
Su Yan is also a little bitter, the couple in love is obviously already in the same city, but they still have to rely on the phone to chat, are they really like lovers?
"I found Ze Zhou, he has a son!" Huo Mingyu said lightly.
