Chapter 270: The Shackles in the Heart

"Mr. Smith's reputation is resounding in the financial world, although I have just come to the United States, I have heard your entrepreneurial story in our country as early as in our country." I thought I was answering fluently, and there were no flaws.

But Jorel's eyes flashed tentatively, which made me feel a little panicked, and I subconsciously used my residual vision to look for Su Yu in the crowd, but I didn't see him.

"Since Miss knows me, I haven't asked Miss for your name yet."

"Ruan Shi." My answer was a bit absent-minded, and I always felt that it was unusual for a person as big as Jorel to suddenly approach me, a newcomer.

Jorel read my name lightly and continued to ask: "What kind of industry are you engaged in in the United States, maybe I can help you." ”

I was speechless for a while, this point was not set by Su Yu and I, in order to avoid goofs, I only had to tell the truth.

"I just arrived in the United States, and I don't know much about the situation here." I smiled awkwardly, "I'm still in the process of inspecting various industries." ”

Jorel raised an eyebrow and handed me a business card, "If you are interested, you can come to work in our group, and I can give you an executive position." ”

I was stunned, a little at a loss for a moment by the olive branch that Jorel suddenly tossed.

These were completely unexpected by me.

Looking at Jorel's fiery gaze, I suddenly shuddered in my heart, and some bad intentions appeared in my mind, and I was suddenly full of vigilance against Jorel.

Instead of picking up the card, I politely declined: "Thank you Mr. Smith for your kindness, but I want to work my own." ”

"I'll go to the bathroom, and have a nice time at the party." I stood up, made an excuse and hurried away.

The encounter with Jorel made all my nerves tense, and I hid in the car after I broke away, remembering the way Jorel looked at me just now, and a chill ran down my spine.

But after a while, Su Yu also got into the car, and I was about to talk to him about what I had just experienced, but he spoke first.

"Saw Jorel, huh? It's a bit panicked to see how you're acting. His tone was indifferent, as if he had expected that I would meet Jorel.

I looked at him in amazement, and there was a hint of complaint in my tone: "You saw it all? Then why don't you come? ”

"If I go over and Jorel doubts our relationship, he'll leave immediately."

Seeing that Su Yu seemed to know Jorel very well, I felt more and more strange.

I grabbed his arm and stared at him annoyedly, "Su Yu, are you still hiding anything from me about Jorel?" You're sure Jorel will talk to me when he sees me, don't you? ”

Su Yu lowered his gaze and looked at the hand I was holding his arm, and a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes, "Xiaoshi, you have to learn to be calm." A truly strong person will not be full of joy and anger. ”

I can't do anything about it now, I just want to get to the bottom of it.

"You answer me!"

Su Yu let out a faint "um" and explained unhurriedly: "Although Jorel was betrayed by his ex-wife, he has always loved his ex-wife deeply, and you happen to be seven points similar to his ex-wife's appearance. ”

It dawned on me why Jorel looked at me with an indescribable emotion.

In the next second, I realized something, and regardless of the sharpness of my words, I asked bluntly: "So, you asked me to accompany you to the banquet, in fact, the real purpose is for me to hook up with Jorel?" ”

Su Yu frowned, "Don't use such ugly words. I'm helping you win over the backers, with Jorel's strength and connections, you can help a company come back to life with any hands. ”

"If you want to gain a firm foothold in the United States, you must either have a strong backer or have excellent strength."

I was dumbfounded, unable to refute Su Yu's words.

But Jorel's business card has been rejected by me, and I am afraid that Su Yu's plan will fail.

Su Yu disagreed, and said quite confidently: "But it's a good thing that you didn't accept Jorel's business card today, otherwise Jorel will think at a glance that you are a woman who covets his money and power, and wants to indulge in it, so as to attract men's interest more." ”

Listening to these words come out of his mouth, I don't feel comfortable in my heart. I looked at Su Yu secretly, and I always felt like the second Yu Chenjun, a chess piece that was used by him and at his mercy.

Although he kept saying that he was planning for my future......

When I returned to the villa, I didn't say a word to Su Yu, and went back to the room directly.

The maid had already put all the bath water away, I changed into my dress, took a bath, and decided to rest.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and the maid whispered, "Miss Ruan, Mr. asked the kitchen to cook supper, please go down and eat." ”

"I don't have an appetite, I'm going to rest." I refused coldly, but I didn't want to see Su Yu.

I should have trusted him, but tonight made me a little more wary of him.

It was another night of tossing and turning, and the torment of insomnia made my temples throb suddenly.

I walked down from the stairs, Su Yu wasn't there, but Lu

A was sitting on the sofa in the living room and waving at me.

"Ruan Shi, how are you feeling these two days?"

I smiled bitterly and confessed: "I have been insomnia for the past two nights, and I usually feel inexplicably flustered and irritable, and it is difficult to calm down." ”

I looked at Lu inquiringly

A, "Is it really possible to wean off the drug?" I think my anxiety seems to have gotten worse after taking the drug. ”

"You don't get too nervous, you have to learn to relax yourself." Lu

A pinched my shoulder and suddenly proposed, "It's nice weather outside today, let's go out for a walk." ”

Going for a walk?

I nodded, since I came to the United States, Su Yu has been imprisoning me in this villa, I thought he was no different from Li Yunzhou, both of them were people with a strong desire to control.

But the reality is that when I left the villa, there was no one to stop me, I could move freely, and whatever imprisonment and control were all shackles I put on myself.

Lu

Seeing the change in my face, A took my hand and said softly, "Ruan Shi, you have to learn to let yourself come out and relax a little." ”

Met with her soft gaze, I pursed my lips and pulled out a forced smile.

There are some emotions that I can't control.

We came to an ecological park in the suburbs, and the eyes were refreshing and green, and the air was straight to the heart.

On the huge grass, a small couple snuggling up to each other, a couple pushing a stroller, a young girl walking a dog......

Everything seems so cosy and harmonious.

Lu

A soft voice floated in my ears: "In fact, life is far simpler than we imagined, what everyone really wants in their hearts is just a pure feeling, and a stable life. ”
