Chapter 423: Something Lost

In the past nineteen years, except for the accident at home a year ago, Xiang Wan has never been so panicked.

She even felt for a moment that Zuo Xingyun would disappear from her world immediately.

The feeling of being empty all of a sudden is frightening and helpless.

It was the same horror and fear that her mother brought to her when she jumped off the building in front of her eyes, which made her body tremble.

So much so that she forgot that she wanted to break away from Zuo Xingyun in the first place, didn't she just want him to disappear from her world? Why is she afraid again when this time comes?

"Tell me, then, how can it work......?"

Zuo Xingyun's voice was hoarse and obscure, like a condemned prisoner making a final struggle, pale and weak.

Xiang Wan was speechless, the only thing she could do was to use all her strength to hug her tightly and seize the warmth of the moment.

She tried to warm up his body, but he was always cold.

The ring in Zuo Xingyun's hand fell to the ground, making a crisp 'jingle' sound, like a sharp knife, invisibly cutting something.

He grabbed Xiang Wan's arm and broke it away, calmly ending the farce.

Xiang Wan's eyes were full of tears, but he could still see his cold eyes behind the blurred thin curtain.

When he was young, he always looked at her with gentleness, and later, there was more focused smile in his eyes, and not once was it so cold.

Seeing Zuo Xingyun turn around and leave without looking back, Xiang Wan's strength was drained, and he opened his mouth without spitting out a word.

Hearing the movement of the car leaving outside, Zhang's mother came to Xiang Wan in confusion: "Why did the second master go?" ”

Xiang Wan didn't answer, and a second before the tears fell, she crawled down, looking for the ring on the ground.

Obviously, the sound of the ring falling to the ground is very close, why can't I find it?

She searched all under the table, not missing a single corner, and the ring seemed to evaporate.

Although Zhang's mother didn't know what she was looking for, she still followed her to look for it: "What are you looking for?" Miss? You...... What's wrong with the second master? ”

Seeing the tears on Xiang Wan's face, Zhang's mother was very surprised.

Xiang Wan choked up and said, "Ring...... The ring fell off and couldn't be found...... Hurry up and help me find it. ”

Zhang's mother was busy calling someone to look for her, and she didn't forget to comfort: "Miss, don't cry first, as long as you are in this house, you will definitely be able to find out." ”

By the time the servants at home gathered in the living room to look for the ring, Xiang Wan couldn't hold on anymore, and sat on the ground against the wall and sobbed, tears stained the placket of his clothes, and he was wet.

The position of the chest, like a hollowed out heart, is uncomfortable and painful.

After a while, Uncle Yuan walked up to her and blocked all the light.

She raised her head and couldn't see Uncle Yuan's face clearly, only to hear him say, "If you can't find it, don't look for it." Sometimes it's like this, when you can't find something when you want to find it, you might come out of it one day. Cherish things, remember to keep them, put them in a place where you can see them, you will never lose them, if you don't care, why bother looking for them? ”

When Mother Zhang heard these words, she tugged at Uncle Yuan's sleeve: "What are you talking about these things for?" Didn't you see that Miss was uncomfortable? Okay, okay, you guys go first, I'll let the cleaners keep an eye on it tomorrow. ”

Uncle Yuan didn't say anything and left with the servant.

How could Xiang Wan not hear Uncle Yuan's off-string sound? She didn't want it, so why bother......?

At night, Xiang Wan had insomnia, and he couldn't fall asleep no matter what, even if he had a splitting headache and was muddy.

Yu Shuqi was the same, the two tacitly went to the courtyard to breathe.

Tonight, I don't know if the clouds are too thick, the stars are dim and sparse, and it is rare to find one or two.

The street lamps in the courtyard surrounded the moths, which were burned uncomfortably, but they were still persistent.

Yu Shuqi had been upstairs before, and he didn't know about Xiang Wan and Zuo Xingyun, so he asked wistfully: "I can't sleep because of Mr. Zeng, why are you because?" ”

Xiang Wan lay on the rattan chair, looking at the sky under the night, his eyes were empty: "Because...... Something was lost. ”

"Is it valuable?" Yu Shuqi understood only the literal meaning.

"Hmm...... It's very valuable, and it's hard to find it if you lose it, and you can't buy it. ”

Yu Shuqi pondered for two seconds: "Since it's so valuable, why don't you keep it?" Either seal it up in a safe or put it in a place where you can see it at all times, you are too careless. ”

Xiang Wan's eyes began to sour again, she took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and didn't want tears to fall: "I just can't get along with myself......"

Yu Shuqi raised his eyes and saw that Zuo Xingyun's room was not lit, and finally reacted: "The second master is not at home?" Did you quarrel? ”

"It's not a quarrel." Xiang Wan smiled bitterly: "It should be completely finished." ”

Yu Shuqi: "......"

Early the next morning.

Xiang Wan regained a little lucidity, although the severe lack of sleep still made her dizzy.

It's hard to be uncomfortable, but you still have to face the reality.

Now that she has broken with Zuo Xingyun, she has no ability to take over the Xiang family's industry for a while, so she can only continue to rely on him.

But this reliance can't be 'prostituted' as before, so she decided to exchange benefits for it.

After thinking about it for a long time, she carefully compiled a text message: If you are willing to continue to help me manage the company, I will give you three points of profit, so that you will not lose. If you really don't want to, I can find someone else to take care of it.

The message was sent out, and there was no response for ten minutes.

She thought that Zuo Xingyun should look down on this benefit, after all, his own Galaxy Group was no worse than Xiang's, but thirty percent of the profit was really a lot......

She gritted her teeth: You say a few percent, I don't want to change people, trouble.

In the hotel room, Zuo Xingyun was woken up by the sound of news, opened his bloodshot eyes, saw clearly what was displayed on the screen, and paused for a long time before replying with two words: Say it again.

Seeing his response with words like gold, Xiang Wan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

She kept taking deep breaths and telling herself that this was the path she had chosen, that she could not regret it, and that she had to endure her sadness.

The temptation of that ring was indeed very great, so big that she had hesitated whether the back half of her body could rely on Zuo Xingyun to be a rice worm safely.

But on the other side, her father's bones are not cold, her mother is still lying in the hospital, and she doesn't dare to make any decisions before the real culprit surfaces.

She couldn't be 100% sure that Zuo Xingyun did it, but she couldn't be 100% sure that it had nothing to do with him.

Unable to sleep, she couldn't stay at home, so she put on makeup that was enough to cover her haggardness, changed her clothes and went to the dessert shop.

The store has entered the raw materials, and I want to receive the goods today, and Shi Nian'an arrived early in the morning.

Seeing that Xiang Wan also came so early, she couldn't help but be surprised: "Why did you come to the store so early?" What's wrong with you? Feeling good? ”
