The only thing around her was the slight sound of her breathing, and Chen Xiaowei sat weakly on the steps, staring at her feet in a daze.

The flashlight in his hand shone ahead, which was the direction of Los Angeles' departure.

His last words were still echoing in his ears.

He said, "You're just a tool for me to vent."

It was also this sentence that made Chen Xiaowei sit paralyzed on the ground and unable to move.

His hands were clenched together coldly, and his eyes were blank and hollow.

Chen Xiaowei was wondering what kind of person Los Angeles was.

Sometimes, he is like a storm, coming and going quickly.

Sometimes he is like a spring breeze, gently blowing across her face and teasing her heart.

I really can't see through him.

If you have no interest in her, why do you keep staring at her again and again?

Chen Xiaowei couldn't find an answer and was also puzzled.

What is the interesting woman in Luo Cheng's mouth?

Thinking of this, Chen Xiaowei couldn't help but laugh in a low voice.

Suddenly, there was a slight sound of footsteps downstairs.

Chen Xiaowei thought that Luo Cheng was back again, and looked at the steps below.

"Ahh

A small scream rang out.

As the sound faded away, both men raised their flashlights at the same time to look at each other.

"Oh my God, you're scared the hell out of me!" Chen Zhiwan covered her heart and said in shock, "Sister, what are you doing sitting here in the middle of the night?"

Chen Xiaowei was also startled by her voice.

Fortunately, it's Chen Zhiwan, and it's only her.

Chen Xiaowei smiled at her stiffly, covered the ankle of her right foot and said, "I accidentally broke my foot when I first went upstairs."

"Huh? Is it serious?"

Chen Xiaowei is becoming more and more proficient in lying now, and she doesn't need to think about excuses in detail.

Chen Zhiwan hurriedly sat down beside her and asked, "Why don't you move around and have a look?"

Chen Xiaowei raised her right foot and moved, "It seems to be a little better."

It is true that she has been sitting for a long time and her feet are numb.

"I'll help you up, it's too cold outside."

"Okay, thank you, Wanwan."

Chen Zhiwan had already stood up with her arm and said with a smile, "We are sisters, what are you polite."

The two of them headed upstairs.

There was a faint light in the living room, which Chang Lan kept for them.

Before they turned on the headlights, they could vaguely see a little light in the gap under the door of their room.

Chen Xiaowei saw it and knew that Chang Lan had not fallen asleep all this time.

Probably heard the movement, and soon the lights went out.

"Sister." Chen Zhiwan took her slippers and whispered, "Have a happy New Year's Eve with friends tonight, right?"

"Well, it's fun."

At first, of course, she was happy, but what happened later made her very uncomfortable.

These words can't be told to Chen Zhiwan.

She didn't seem to see that Chen Xiaowei was on her mind, and helped her into the room.

Still a little uneasy to ask, "Are you okay with taking a bath like this?"

"It shouldn't be a problem, it's much better."

After walking a flight of steps, her feet were no longer numb.

After a brief wash, I was about to go back to bed and lie down when I heard a knock on the door.

Then, Chen Zhiwan poked out her little head and asked, "Sister, can I sleep with you tonight?"

"Come on."

Chen Zhiwan slept inside, and Chen Xiaowei leaned outside to sleep.

Her arms lay on Chen Xiaowei's body, her head against her shoulders and whispered, "Will you be like you are like today in the future?"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"That's the attitude towards our mother, right?"

Chen Zhiwan raised his head and stared at her face, trying to see her expression clearly in the dark.

Tonight's Chen Xiaowei is very different from usual.

actually learned to resist Chang Lan, and Chen Zhiwan was shocked.

If she hadn't been in a hurry, she might have wanted to ask at the time.

Chen Xiaowei asked, "Wouldn't it be bad for me to do this?"

"Well...... Chen Zhiwan thought for a while and said, "I can't say it's not good, we are all adults, and we can't still be disciplined by our parents for everything, not to mention that you are too exaggerated."

As one of the family members, Chen Zhiwan thinks so.

Chen Zhiwan hugged her tightly, "I think it's good for you to be like this, you have the demeanor of being a big sister."

"Haha." Chen Xiaowei couldn't help laughing, "Didn't you have it before?"

"Yes, yes, but you always share big and small things with your mother, so I don't dare to tell you a little secret."

And she said, "You were too weak before."

She suddenly looked at Chen Xiaowei very seriously, "Sister, if you use such a strong attitude towards our mother in the future, I will support you!"

Chen Xiaowei looked at her and saw seriousness and expectation in her eyes.

So, isn't she doing all this too much?

Isn't it a bad thing to rebel against your parents and escape from their control?

But Tang Yi beside her, and Chen Zhiwan to the present are all on her side.

Even Chen Gaoming will help her secretly.

When I thought of dinner, I asked Chang Lan why, and she looked hesitant, as if she had something to hide.

What is it?

It doesn't matter to her anymore, the important thing is that the people around her are supportive.

Chen Xiaowei already had an idea in her heart.

At the same time, he also grasped the key point in Chen Zhiwan's mouth, turned around and looked at her with a smile, "Is there a little secret that you don't tell your sister?"

"Uh...... That secret is already from the past......

The two were laughing and playing.

After a while, Chen Zhiwan fell asleep.

Chen Xiaowei turned over and slept towards the window, she was not sleepy, she raised her eyes slightly and looked at the window.

She wondered, will Los Angeles still come?

After the New Year's Day holiday, Chen Xiaowei is still obsessed with finding a job.

I interviewed a few companies, but I never got a reply.

Chen Xiaowei later recalled the interview scene and the questions raised by the interviewer, and she didn't feel anything wrong.

However, this year's New Year is early.

Chen Xiaowei simply didn't look for it, and it was not bad to help out in Tang Yi's flower shop.

Chang Lan bought a lot of gifts a year ago and filled the coffee table.

Find a few valuable gifts, and call Chen Xiaowei in a gift box.

"These few, you can give them to Si Chen tomorrow."

"What did you send him for?" Chen Xiaowei was puzzled.

"People have helped me so much, how can I be grateful for a meal? He said you know where his company is, and he's going to go for his mother."

Chen Xiaowei couldn't shirk it, so she had to agree.

Early the next morning, I went to Lisheng Group with gifts.

called Wang Sichen about ten minutes in advance, and he seemed to know that Chen Xiaowei was going to look for her, so he readily agreed.

It was probably Secretary Xu who also explained.

When I arrived at the front desk, I personally took her to the boss's office.

Wang Sichen and Secretary Xu were both in the office, as if they were talking about work, and they both looked serious.

"You're here?" Seeing Chen Xiaowei, Wang Sichen showed a smile.

Chen Xiaowei snorted and put the gift down, "This is what my mother asked me to bring to you."

"Aunt is so kind."

Secretary Xu accepted it and took it aside.

"The things are delivered, and I'm leaving." Chen Xiaowei didn't want to stay.

"Wait a minute." Wang Sichen stopped her, "Have you been looking for a job lately?"
