Xiaobei felt unsteady, it turned out that he had already noticed it, otherwise he would not have let Guo Zilin appear together and sit with this Liu Sheng. But she didn't expect him to expose her lie in such a sudden and unprepared way. At this moment, she was like she was undressed, naked in front of this man. The greed that swelled up for a while, the warmth that surged up for a while, now looks so ridiculous.

"Zilin, Qin Xiao, this kid brought such a beautiful girl over, didn't you have any reaction?"

Liu Sheng said half-jokingly, worthy of being a crisis public relations expert, at this moment, to describe such a thing that is about to break out in the eyes of outsiders in such an understatement tone, Guo Zilin looked at Qin Xiao, a little stunned, but did not mean to be angry.

Liu Sheng is a crisis communications expert. This is my new secretary. ”

Xiaobei stood next to Qin Xiao and didn't know whether to sit or stand, she was completely frightened by this situation, Xiaobei looked at Guo Zilin in a daze, her face was extremely unnatural. Could it be that she guessed her relationship with Qin Xiao? When he heard Qin Xiao introduce Xiaobei to Guo Zilin as his secretary, Xiaobei sighed in his heart, secretary? He used such an excuse to look after her face. Is it sympathy or what?

"Sit down, it's all a few acquaintances, and the food will be cold in a while."

Qin Xiao's voice threw out this sentence without any ups and downs, he didn't look at Xiaobei, just like a high-ranking boss, talking very formulaic words to his personal secretary.

"Why don't the two ladies speak?"

Liu Sheng raised his glass and motioned for the four of them to toast to today's gathering.

Qin Xiao slowly raised his cup, and then Guo Zilin also raised his cup, so the three of them looked at Xiaobei at the same time. She felt her heart tremble, but she still had to sit here cheekily, just because Qin Xiao had just introduced her to his friend as his secretary, and now the boss had asked her to dine here, he took into account her humble self-esteem, so she was powerless to tear off this layer of skin.

Xiaobei also raised his glass and touched a few of them lightly.

"Liu Sheng, Xiaobei and I are good sisters, I was too shocked just now, when did Xiaobei become a secretary, I have never heard her talk about it."

Guo Zilin looked straight at Xiaobei when she said this, Xiaobei was extremely weak in her direct gaze, how to explain to Sister Zilin when she went back? She kept her head down, not daring to meet her gaze.

Qin Xiao listened to Guo Zilin's words, but there was no reaction, he still ate by himself, and quickly diverted the topic.

"Danny, before you go back to the United States, you may need to help me deal with a case, the demolition of the old one, and some tricky ones, we'll talk about it in detail later."

Qin Xiao propped his elbows on the table, crossed his fingers and talked about work with Liu Sheng opposite. Liu Sheng is also a very lively person, in that short contact, he felt that the relationship between Guo Zilin and Qin Xiao was not as described by Guo Zilin, he had doubts in his heart, but this was a private matter, and he was not interested in digging deeper.

"You've spoken, how can I not deal with it. Let's go back and talk about it in detail, eat today, eat. Just now Zilin said that she and Secretary Xiaobei are good sisters, don't say you really didn't see it, how did you know each other? ”

How did you meet? Xiaobei's heart tightened again, and the whole person seemed to be roasting on the stove uncomfortably, and she was so flustered that she couldn't look like she was flustered, but she had to pretend to be calm in her performance. She felt that Qin Xiao heard Liu Sheng's words and looked at her as well.

"Speaking of my acquaintance with Xiaobei, it's really a very dramatic intention, but I don't think this story is suitable for such an occasion."

Xiaobei didn't expect Guo Zilin to answer like this, so ingenious, so unremarkably blocked back, and looked at Guo Zilin gratefully, but it was Guo Zilin's eyes that she couldn't understand.

"Haha, it looks like I asked a question I shouldn't have asked. Well, eat, eat. ”

Liu Sheng found himself a step down.

"I'm sorry, everyone use it slowly, I'll go to the bathroom."

Xiao Beifu also stood up, because he stood too violently, his arm touched Qin Xiao's arm on the side, and the dishes in his chopsticks fell off.

"What's the panic?"

His words can be described as a pun, Xiaobei whispered: "I'm sorry", and then took his bag and ran away.

Leaning against the door of the bathroom, Xiaobei closed his eyes and took a sharp breath to calm his pounding heart. Qin Xiao and Guo Zilin both chose to help hide their true selves, but this seemed like a great irony to her. Especially for Guo Zilin, she doesn't know how to face her in the future.

In the second semester of freshman year, Xiaobei and Guo Zilin met. Xiaobei remembered that it was a rainy night in winter, Xiaobei was outside to distribute leaflets, went back very late, missed the last bus to school, she stood alone in a bus shop in Qingcheng New District, cold and hungry, with only 60 yuan in her pocket that day's part-time job, and some change.

She can't go back to the dormitory, 60 yuan, can she stay in a hotel? She didn't know. What hurt her the most was that she stood in the wind and rain, stopped thousands of strangers to deliver leaflets, each of which was worth a few cents, and finally accumulated ten figures, which could feed her for a week. It's gone, she's so reluctant.

It was the most frustrated and helpless night she came to Qingcheng, she felt that she couldn't hold on, and the belief that supported herself was suddenly shaken, she didn't know how many more nights she still needed to face in the four years of college life, completely relying on her own hands, and how many times she had to experience such helplessness, thinking about Xiaobei's poop and tears.

At this time, a car stopped, the windows rolled down, someone whistled to Xiaobei, and then three or four men got out of the car, all smelling of alcohol.

"Beauty, let's go, accompany my brother for a few drinks. You don't have to wait for the bus here on a cold day, you have to cry when you wait. ”

When Xiaobei saw such a situation, he ran away, and those people were a little drunk when they saw this, at this point in time, not to mention people in this remote place, even cars were rare, so they played a game of cat and mouse with Xiaobei. Several people outflanked Xiaobei from several directions. At the next turn, four men surrounded Xiaobei in the middle, narrowing the distance between him and Xiaobei little by little. With such obscene eyes, Xiaobei was confused when he saw it. She shouted desperately, help, help, but before she could shout a few words, a man reached out from behind to cover her mouth, and then several men pulled Xiaobei into the car.

Xiaobei remembered that when she was dead in her heart, Guo Zilin appeared, she stood in front of a few people and men, and worked hard to beat those wine bags and rice bags so that Xiaobei left them and ran away.

Yes, Guo Zilin helped her a lot, and later took her in and gave her a job that was enough to support herself and save money, so that she could live her college life in peace of mind. But she used her name and had ulterior motives.

Xiaobei crouched on the sink, turned on the faucet, and wet her face with a few handfuls of cold water, the cold temperature made her sober instantly, but it was even more painful.
