Mingsheng's hands were clenched into fists, and his delicate eyebrows were dyed with thick anger.

I think I've dealt with all kinds of people over the years, and I've experienced twists and turns and humiliation, and my ability to bear it is above ordinary people.

But it was the first time she had encountered a man like Lin Song who was insidious and despicable and hid so deeply.

After years of planning, he is only for today!

And she was blinded by him, and he played around in the name of love, and she became a chess piece in his hand in a daze, and even now that he simply doesn't pretend, Mingsheng still doesn't know what the plan he has been brewing for many years is.

She looked at him with such a cold and no warmth to speak of, and suddenly realized how hasty she was in agreeing to his marriage proposal.

I don't know anything about his past, and I don't know what kind of woman he's been with.

A cold sweat broke out on her slender back.

Such a unpredictable and opaque man, before tonight, she naively thought that he was considerate and gentle, emotionally stable, and had status, and was the most suitable candidate for marriage.

How sarcastic.

Just when she thought she was in complete control of life, life gave her another slap in the face.

"Did your grandmother do something heinous? You're going to force a terminally ill old man to death like this. ”

She didn't take his temptation to heart, and erected spikes all over her body, only wanting to ask for answers.

was inexplicably used as a murder weapon to kill people, didn't she deserve an answer?

Lin Song's chin was slightly raised, and his gaze condensed.

"I said, the truth doesn't matter to you."

His lips tightened, "Even if a bad guy is old, he is still a bad guy." ”

"Really?" Mingsheng snorted sarcastically, "Don't forget, when you stare into the abyss, you are actually being stared at by the abyss." ”

"Lin Song, even if your grandmother deserves it, you are no better."

She put down these words, and angrily pushed the car door and got out of the car.

The diamond ring that she had worn for many days was returned to its original owner and left in the car.

She was about to leave, treating him as a flood beast, but Lin Song called her name at this time.

"Mingsheng."

He didn't get out of the car, just looked at her back, and said with a calm face, "Of course you have the freedom to leave, and the marriage contract between us, you can also treat it as if nothing happened." ”

"But don't forget, you have been paving the way for you for the past four years."

"You owe me more than one."

"If you are reasonable, you have to help me."

Goosebumps erupted from Mingsheng's naked skin.

She turned around angrily, her beautiful eyes burst out with a little spark, and she couldn't help but raise her voice: "How can I help you?" To help you kill someone? ”

Lin Song sat majestically in the car, his face buried deep in the dim light, his eyes drooping slightly, and he was unpredictable and cold.

He didn't laugh, but he was even colder than any man Ming Sheng had ever seen.

"Murder?" He smiled contemptuously, "There's cancer, so why mess with your hands and mine." ”

"When people are old, they are easy to forget, and they will reconcile with themselves, but there are some things, how can they be forgotten and reconciled?"

In Mingsheng's surprised gaze, he turned his face and smiled cruelly at her: "

It's not as complicated as you think. ()”

"I just want your face to help her remember the sins she has made. ▏()_[()]▏『Come to []♂ See the latest chapter ♂, complete chapter』()"

A glimmer of light suddenly flashed in his calm eyes, as if he was whispering in the dark night: "How can my pain be forgotten? ”

Mingsheng stood outside the car door, his red lips pursed into a line, forcing the sourness in his eyes back.

"So you have never just wanted to use my face, and you are afraid that I will die by my bedside in London, and you can't find a more similar face in this world, and you have never taken this relationship seriously, and those nonsense about building a family with me are also coaxing me and lying to me."

The denunciating female voice was desolate and mournful.

There was silence in the carriage for a while.

"I'm sorry, Mingsheng." It took Lin Song a long time before he spoke, "You're a good girl." ”

"Bastard." Mingsheng wiped away the tears that had not yet dripped from his cheeks, "Take your good guy card, get out." ”

She slammed the door slammed on.

Mingsheng returned home, exhausted.

took off the eye-catching doll dress on the body for the first time, and with a "snap", the nearest destination of this five-figure skirt is the trash can.

After taking a shower, I opened the refrigerator and took out a can of beer, frowned, and drank half a can in one go.

Qiao Yu went on a business trip to the headquarters and won't be back until next week.

She walked alone in the house, and the anger that rolled in her chest could not be quelled.

Lin Song's piercing words were still in her ears, poking her like a needle.

It made her want to scream, to cry, to vent.

She quickly changed into a night running gear, ran around the nearby riverside park for more than half an hour, and began to slow down after sweating, walking and walking, listening to the cheerful rhythm of square dance music, the depression in her heart that had nowhere to go was gradually relieved.

Mingsheng stood by the soothing river and was distracted for a long time.

Gently exhale turbid air in the chest.

In the process of running alone in the night wind, she wanted to understand a simple and profound truth.

It is said to be profound because a few years ago it was not deeply involved in the world, and it had a naivety that could not be integrated with the world.

As for its shallowness, it is also because now she has learned from the pain and finally learned to see the essence from the phenomenon.

It couldn't be simpler.

- All the gifts given by fate are actually secretly marked with a good price.

I was deeply frustrated emotionally, and I was working hard every day to usher in new challenges.

A well-connected Chinese colleague at the head office in France revealed a surprising piece of news to her.

The head office overturned the design of the site because Mily had secretly sued her.

She found a few show pictures of other brand opponents, one or two media reports, which proved that our venue plan was too conservative and outdated, and would be compared with other opponents, and the connotation of your media resources in the email was average, and the public relations ability was not outstanding, which would affect our brand reputation. Pierre had a heated fight with her in China, and presented her proposal directly to the president beyond Rashida, who talked to her on the phone for more than half an hour, don't you know? I've also heard about the dispute between you and model Lisa, and now that they're succeeding, the president has a good impression of her and directly adopted her side

() case. ”

"It's good that Rashida has always supported you."

My colleague's sister spoke up on the phone, reminding her not to take it lightly: "The company has not yet decided on the candidate for the director of Greater China, I think Mily is so anxious to perform and has long been eyeing this position, although she is nominally your assistant, but there is no shortage of careerists in the fashion industry, if you make a slight mistake this time to let her take the position, you will be labeled as a loser in the circle in the future, you know what the consequences are." ”

Hanging up the phone, Mingsheng looked solemn.

Not far from her line of sight, Mily's red dress was enchanting and crispy. His chest was half exposed, and he was smiling and talking on the phone.

In the days when Pierre came to inspect the venue, Mily came to work every day in a variety of ways, and didn't even hide the kiss on her neck. Trace.

She said that she had a hot fight with the male model.

But who knows.

It is not impossible for a woman with an open concept and ambitious career to spend a few nights with a middle-aged French man.

Seeing Mily smiling so happily, Mingsheng's whole body was on the verge of a volcanic eruption.

She was out of anger.

was backstabbed by a colleague, this colleague is still the so-called assistant, resulting in all the work done overtime in the early stage of the work needs to be overturned and restarted, and now the time for the big show is approaching day by day, everything has to be overturned and restarted, Mingsheng suspects that even if he doesn't sleep 24 hours a day, it will be difficult to complete the preliminary work.

Being trampled on the head, does she still have to pretend that she doesn't know?

Mingsheng has a temper, she can't do it.

In front of the other colleagues, she stepped on her high heels and stood in front of Mily with her eyes struck, and asked in a tense voice, "Mily, can you explain the email you sent to Pierre?" And the content of the call between the president and you? If you are not satisfied with our site plan, you can communicate with me, and our whole team will work together to improve, and now because of your unilateral skipping report, all of our work during this period has become a blank slate, have you considered the feelings of all colleagues in this way? ”

The colleagues who were originally working all stopped tacitly and looked at this side with puzzled eyes.

The small gestures she had done were suddenly debunked, and in front of everyone, Mily was stunned and embarrassed, and she forced her face to hold on.

She didn't expect Mingsheng to look very soft and easy to bully, she was really anxious, and she was going to tear her face as soon as she came up.

Her colleagues watched, and she slowly pulled her long hair behind her ears, still trying to blur things up first: "Lona, why can't I understand what you're saying?" What email? I know you've been under a lot of pressure at work lately, but don't be angry with someone. ”

The eyes of colleagues were once again focused on Mingsheng's face.

She was sharp and did not flinch: "Mily, don't admit what you have done, since you dare to sue the president, you should also think that there is no impermeable wall in the world, and sooner or later everyone will know what you have done." If you are dissatisfied with me personally, you can say it directly and discuss it sincerely, but now all my colleagues are working overtime and not even enough time to sleep, is it fair to them? ”

The vast art gallery garden is quiet.

Only Mingsheng's calm rebuke surrounded everyone's ears.

Wang Jun rubbed over to one of the staff members with a cheeky face, whispered what was going on, and then put his hands across his chest

, lingering with interest.

Seeing Mingsheng's tough attitude of tearing her face, Mily's condemning eyes fell on her face one after another, so she simply didn't pretend to be faced.

"Yes, it's an email from me and the boss. ()”

"It's my duty as an assistant, isn't it?? ()?『 Come []_See the latest chapter_ full chapter'()" She shirked her responsibilities lightly, and even beat her back, "I have served the company for three years, and my qualifications are not less than yours, but you have monopoly power and don't give me a chance to give my opinion at all, if you don't listen, then I'll talk to the big boss, the boss praises me for being talented, and my plan can make our show shine." ”

She tried to calm the anger of the public: "Although everyone is working hard now, but when the big show is successful, the honor is not the team's, am I robbing all the credit alone?" ”

Without waiting for Ming Sheng, a colleague was dissatisfied: "The operability of your plan is too low, the on-site hardware can't meet it at all, and I can't toss it for another two months." ”

"Are you really sure you can shine?" Another colleague was indignant, "I only know that the new model is easy to wrestle, they can be professional, and they are complaining that the venue is difficult to walk." ”

Mily was scolded by several people, and was already a little angry: "It's useless to say anything, I advise everyone to waste less time on lips and make new plans as soon as possible, and also, pay attention to your tone, after this show, I, Mily, will be the future director of Greater China, and if I want to be a colleague in the future, I advise you to take a long-term view." ”

She looked at Ming Sheng with a provocative and smug gaze, with an arrogant attitude that was bound to win.

"Mily, at least not yet."

Mingsheng showed the greatest calmness, "At least I'm still your boss now, please show the attitude that your subordinates should have, and want to play prestige, and wait until you really become the director." ”

Not to be outdone, Mily said: "Lona, I'm bound to get the position of director." ”

Mingsheng's red lips were slightly raised, and he rolled with anger, and said coldly: "Then let's see." ”

It was late at work, and Mingsheng was on his way to the subway and passed by a bar.

She stopped, then lifted her long, straight legs and walked in that direction.

A few glasses of dry martini were in the stomach, the stomach was burning, the alcohol was swimming in the veins, and there was a fluttering pleasure.

The bartender saw that she was drunk alone, and asked cautiously, "Miss, will a companion come to pick you up?" ”

"I'll send her home."

A mellow voice came from behind her, and then someone sat down in the empty seat next to her.

The man was tall and tall, the contours of the side face were neat and smooth, and the profound and heroic temperament was not the best charcoal could not be outlined, he exchanged a few words with the bartender, and finally asked for a pineapple and white peach flavored non-alcoholic drink.

Mingsheng seemed to be drunk but not drunk, and his misty beautiful eyes looked at him steadily, and it was not surprising that this person appeared like a shadow in three days.

He had succeeded in getting her used to every one of his unexpected appearances.

As if noticing her scrutinizing gaze, he took a sip of his drink.

"Drink and get drunk?"

Drinking the cup of dry martini in his hand, Ming Sheng looked away expressionlessly: "It's none of your business." ”

"It's none of my business?"

Fu Xizhou chewed her hard refusal, the smile on the corner of her mouth was playful, "It's none of my business."

(), then who will send you home? That hypocrite Lin Song? ”

Mingsheng, who was pinching the wine glass, bit his lip and was silent.

Fu Xizhou tilted his head slightly.

Seeing that her originally puffy red lips were almost like broken petals with dew because of this small and subtle movement.

The bar is dimly lit and the air smells of alcohol and nicotine.

Fu Xizhou's eyes suddenly darkened, and the drink in his hand was even more bland and tasteless.

He wanted to taste the martini on her lips.

Is it still strong and addictive?

Mingsheng put down his wine glass, and the swan's neck was raised high, and his neck was a greasy and flawless white skin.

"Why don't you have a drink with me?"

Her tone was relaxed, but she was deliberately avoiding the topic just now.

also avoided talking about Lin Song.

"I've quit drinking."

Fu Xizhou's slender hand shook the drink in his hand, and took a sip of it.

"When?"

"Yesterday."

Mingsheng drank to the top, laughed comfortably, and when he heard the joke, "You look like you will break your vows at any time." ”

"Yes." Fu Xizhou said in the female singer's rough and coarse chanting, "Women can't quit, but alcohol can." ”

The bitter liquor remained in his mouth, and Mingsheng was sometimes light and sometimes drowsy, and he could not laugh again.

"Since you can quit ...... alcohol"

She stared at the wine glass in her hand in a daze, unable to focus, and began to babble nonsense, "That man can too." ”

Fu Xizhou frowned and looked at her right hand holding the wine glass.

When I came in just now, I found that the diamond ring was taken off by her.

After that glance, the mood of the whole experience has experienced a rollercoaster-like ups and downs.

"Where's the ring?"

"Fu Xizhou, you have to say it a few times before you can understand people."

Mingsheng was stabbed by the word "ring", and the wine was also half-awake: "Everything I have has nothing to do with you." ”

Stared at by her awe-inspiring and cold beautiful eyes, Fu Xizhou's expression was calm, his eyebrows were stretched, and he had the transcendent calmness that had been precipitated over the years.

"Have you looked in the mirror?"

He asked abruptly, "Go and look at your aggrieved and angry face in the mirror, it's about to make me unrecognizable." ”

Mingsheng's nose was sour, and he turned his face away angrily.

Refuse to face his calmness or even coldness again.

In the past and in the future, neither of them could empathize, he could never understand her struggle at the bottom, and she could not feel his arrogance at the top of the pyramid.

"So what."

She refused to show weakness, "Even if my face is unrecognizable, it has nothing to do with you." ”

The man next to him was silent for a moment.

The female singer of the bar is slowly singing the saddest part of a love song.

Fu Xizhou opened his mouth with the melody: "But Mingsheng, I will feel distressed." ”

The wall that Mingsheng had tried to build finally collapsed.

Someone took advantage of her, someone laughed at her, someone ignored her—

But no one feels sorry for her.

Her red lips pursed and she didn't say a word.

Dull lamp

The light hit her stiff back, her shoulders straightened, and she never relaxed for a moment.

Body language says it all.

She was burdened with her worries and was not happy.

Fu Xizhou was also sitting, behaving like a gentleman, and he didn't even have the idea of reaching out to take her into his arms.

He was just like an ordinary friend, giving her safety on such a noisy night.

"Regarding Lin Song's past, I found out something."

"If you don't want to hear it, you can leave now."

Fu Xizhou didn't care about the truth and put the truth in front of her, this time, he finally learned to respect art a little and gave her a chance to think about her choices.

Mingsheng's final answer was to push the empty glass in front of the young bartender, and said in a clear and firm tone: "Another drink." ”

She has given the options cleanly.

Don't be unclear, she wants a truth.

The man next to him reached into the inside pocket of his suit, pulled out a photo, and gently pushed it to Mingsheng's side.

Mingsheng lowered his head, and a face that was eight points similar to her jumped into view.

Although he had already guessed that someone looked very similar to her, Mingsheng never expected that it would be so similar.

The lines of the face and the proportions of the facial features are all similar, just like sisters born of compatriots.

If it was a few years earlier, the girl in the photo was still baby fat, and even had the same pure and immature as her.

She was so shocked that she was almost speechless, and suddenly realized that Lin Song had met her for the first time in the café.

Maybe just like she was at the moment, surprised and shocked, she couldn't believe her eyes.

"My parents gave birth to me."

It took more than ten seconds for her to regain her senses from her shocked emotions.

Although this girl looks like her, if you look closely at the details and demeanor on her face, you can still see the difference.

She didn't know the short-haired woman.

Fu Xizhou pushed away the drink in his hand in disgust, his fingers bent up, and tapped the table with the music.

"Lin Jiawan."

"Lin Song's sister who is not related by blood was brought into the Lin family by her mother at the age of five and grew up with Lin Song."

"At the age of twenty-two, he was called by Grandma Lin Song, married to a Chinese American American, the marriage was not smooth, and he divorced a year ago, but his state was not very good, he was severely depressed, and he attempted suicide."

Mingsheng's original expression was blank, but after listening to it, he finally had a hint of reaction: "Severe depression? ”

"Yes, long-term psychotherapy."

Fu Xizhou glanced at the innocent and smiling girl in the photo, imagining that she was sent by her family to marry in the United States, and was poisoned by marriage, and couldn't help but feel compassion.

"Lin Song placed her in Chicago to take care of her, arranged a team of psychologists, and a maid to take care of her."

Mingsheng finally understood why Lin Song frequently traveled to the United States, it turned out that there was another reason.

She listened silently, clasping her hands into fists: "What is their relationship?" ”

"I don't know." Fu Xizhou's tone was regretful, "Some family scandals are not visible, and outsiders have no way of knowing. ”

She drank the dry martini in her hand.

A glass of wine is in the stomach, the throat is hot, and there is a fire burning in the chest.

Alcohol does not paralyze the enlargement

The brain (), she was more awake than ever.

"You've investigated in such detail. ”

Is she sarcastic? [()]?『 Come to []$ to see the latest chapter$ full chapter'(), "Then the private detective should find out, when did she attempt suicide?" ”

Fu Xizhou glanced at her, and in her beautiful pupils, he saw the extreme anger and the heartbreak after being deceived.

And she was sad and drunk for another man at the moment.

Jealousy burned him with rage, so much so that he was no less angry than she was.

"Half a year ago."

He lit a cigarette and buried his face in the smoke, "The woman was found slitting her wrists in the bathroom, and after she stabilized, he began to fly to Europe frequently to pursue you." ”

"It's unclear who he's going to get revenge on, but pursuing you is clearly an important part of his plan."

"Bastards who took advantage of the situation."

Mingsheng's clenched teeth overflowed with a curse, and his voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.

Fu Xizhou heard it clearly.

Before he could say anything to comfort him, Mingsheng suddenly grabbed his bag and left the bar seat without saying a word.

It was so fast that he didn't have time to grab her by the sleeve.

Fu Xizhou paid the bill and hurriedly chased after her.

Mingsheng walked down the street with vague steps.

The power of alcohol was so powerful that the senses were so skewed that the pedestrian buildings on the road seemed to be crooked, and they could collapse in front of her at any moment.

Scenes of the old days flashed in Mingsheng's mind.

By the window of the perch café, when she approached cautiously, the cup that the man held up was crooked, and the coffee suddenly spilled all over her.

Or in the afternoon when the sun was shining in the window, she had a face that did not understand the world, and asked curiously and in surprise: "We met in Pingshui, why did you help me?" Give me such a chance? ”

Later, in the car, he spoke in a long tone, looking out the window with a deep gaze: "There are always some things in life that require wine to get through." ”

The last scene was half a year ago, when she broke free from her heavy sleepiness and struggled to open her sleepy and heavy eyelids.

The eye came to his face with a haggard chin full of stubble.

He was ecstatic, tears flashing in the corners of his eyes, "Heaven heard my prayer and gave you back to me." ”

Good irony.

This "you" turns out to be someone else.

Mingsheng staggered forward on the street, tears streaming down his eyes.

At that moment, she thought that the destination of this life would be this person.

Wandering in a foreign land, it will be this man who will eventually give her a home.

Mingsheng walked faster and faster, until his footsteps were completely out of rhythm, and he was about to fall on the unfamiliar street.

A pair of powerful palms behind him grabbed him in time, wrapped around her slender waist, and pressed her into his arms.

Mingsheng smelled the familiar smell of dryness.

This made her furious.

Why, when she was at her most embarrassed, decadent, and in need of someone to lick/lick her wounds, this person was always haunting her, reminding her of how failed she was in life.

She broke down and exploded.

In the midst of the onlookers of passers-by, she reached out and pushed the man like crazy, tore off the label of a civilized person, kicked him violently with her feet, and kicked him.

Tears were flying from her eyes, and she yelled at him hysterically and with a distorted face.

"Get out of here!"

"You men, all bad seeds, none of them are good!"

Fu Xizhou endured the fury of her body, endured the pain in her calves, cut her hands angrily, and pressed her against the wall in the eyes of passers-by.

"Mingsheng, you sober me up."

His heart twisted and almost unrecognizable with great jealousy, and he yelled uncontrollably, "I'm not like that bastard!" ”！
