She sighed and fell on the cover for a long time.

There was a crescent moon hanging in the night sky, bleak and cold, just like her dilemma at the moment.

Xu Xintong got up early the next day, or in other words, she didn't sleep much last night. I looked in the mirror for a while, and the dark circles under the eyes of the people inside were obvious.

She had no choice but to press it with powder to make herself look less haggard.

Zhou Rin was waiting for her downstairs, and when he saw that she was only carrying a small box, he frowned, and reached out to take it: "You just take such a little thing?" ”

Xu Xintong was a little depressed and didn't say anything.

He took the initiative to round it for her: "Forget it, you don't need to bring anything, when you get over there, I'll let someone buy it for you." ”

Xu Xintong didn't respond at all, and got into this car with a special license plate.

said that he was sending her back to the compound, but in fact he just took her to go around there, and later went back to the courtyard on the Xidan side.

The yard is two in and two out, and it is connected to the next door to form a whole building.

"I'll live next door to you, and call me if there's something." He pointed to the small door in the courtyard and made a gesture to push the door, "I'm not locked, you can come to me directly if you encounter something." ”

That being said, he's actually very busy, and he doesn't necessarily have to come here once a week.

Most of the time, Xu Xintong lives alone, except for Saturday, when he has to go back to the old house of the Zhou family, he lives alone the rest of the time.

Zhou Rin didn't talk nonsense, and in the second week she moved here, the news about the Fu family spread in Beijing.

The first to bear the brunt is Fu Hanwen, who was charged with a number of crimes, although none of them are very serious, but the accumulation is shocking. Although I didn't go in later, this career is reversed.

Once the Fu family fell, the people around them avoided it.

Although the family background is still there, the foundation for the upper part is broken, and it is inevitable that people will look down on it.

Even Fu Wenzhou was also affected, and it is said that he was interviewed several times.

Xu Xintong was worried about him in her heart, and she couldn't wait to put on her wings and go to him, but she remembered Zhou Zhenyuan's warning, and she didn't dare to act rashly, and she was afraid that his self-esteem would be damaged, so she was really embarrassed.

"What are you thinking, so engrossed?" There was a playful laugh at the door.

Xu Xintong turned around, and Zhou Rin stood at the door with his hands in his hand, holding a small box in his hand.

Xu Xintong frowned: "Why are you here?" ”

"Look at what you said, my brother can't come to see you?"

Xu Xintong didn't want to quarrel with him, but just turned around and ignored him.

"Open it and take a look." He brought the box to her.

Xu Xintong: "I'm not interested." ”

He didn't care about her cold face, and opened it directly, and inside was a jade Buddha pendant. The jade color is clear, and it is actually a glass species, which is worth a lot at first glance.

It is hard to find a good jade gold in these years, let alone such a transparent and exquisite.

Before Xu Xintong could react, he had already bent down to put it on for her, pulled the drawstring, and tied it steadily.

"What are you doing?" Xu Xintong raised his eyes, a little sullen.

"Grandma sent it, not me." Zhou Rin's face was indifferent, and she sat down on the edge of the bed, her eyes faintly falling on the jade Buddha she wore on her neckline.

Hearing that it wasn't sent by him, Xu Xintong put down the hand he was going to pull.

But he was still not very accustomed to wearing jade ornaments, frowning and fiddling with the red drawstring.

Zhou Rin looked at her frowning eyebrows from time to time and smiling from time to time, and her lips were also dyed with a smile: "You should go out for a walk more." It's almost the New Year, I'll go to the supermarket with you, right? ”

Xu Xintong looked at him with a long-lost vigilance in his eyes.

Zhou Rin was stunned, crying and laughing.

His eyebrows and eyes are not as arrogant as before, and they are a little more humane: "Don't worry, although I am a despicable villain, I will not be too idle to do anything to calculate your little girl." ”

Xu Xintong: "......"

Zhou Rin didn't give her a chance to look at her angrily, and got up in a dashing manner: "Let's go." ”

Before she knew it, she followed him out: "Where are you going?" ”

"I'll tell you when it's time."

This man is tall and long-legged, and he walks in slippers as if he is carrying the wind under his feet.

Xu Xintong saw from a distance that he had already gone downstairs, and hurriedly followed.

When I got outside, I found that a big G was parked at the door, and Xu Xintong's eyes widened slightly.

Zhou Rin stretched out his hand to her.

Xu Xintong subconsciously spread out his palms.

The next second, there was an extra car key in the palm of her hand, and it seemed that in order to take care of her preferences, a miniature rabbit doll was put on the cold key ring.

"Like it? Let's drive this one in the future. ”

Xu Xintong didn't want to evaluate his straight male aesthetic: "I don't want it." ”

The smile on his face faded: "Don't want to know about Fu Wenzhou?" ”

Xu Xintong choked.

He added: "I don't want to know Dad's attitude on this matter? ”

"Zhou Rin......"

"Call brother, I'll tell you." He raised his hand and pulled the car door, lifting his chin inward, signaling her to get in first.

Xu Xintong bit her lower lip and stepped forward.

"Seat belts." He leaned over and fastened it for her.

Getting closer, the slightly dry ink fragrance on his body was almost pervasive, and Xu Xintong leaned back uncomfortably, keeping a distance from him.

He propped up one side of the seat as he got up, and looked at her with a complicated look in his eyes.

When I went out, I also met an acquaintance, an uncle, Xu Xintong also met him when he went out for a walk before, and it is said that he is a retired old leader in the central government.

Zhou Rin greeted him with a smile, his attitude was very generous, and he introduced Xu Xintong to him: "My sister Hitomi." ”

The uncle said that the little girl is so beautiful and smooth.

Xu Xintong understood, and smiled with him embarrassedly.

He took her around the neighborhood and took her shopping for clothes.

"So idle around, accompanying women to go shopping and buy clothes?" She was worried about Fu Wenzhou, she was not in the mood, and she was holding a skirt and gesturing in front of her.

inadvertently flipped to the tag at the back, a string of 0s was very dazzling, "You guys are so rich on business?" It can't be a corrupt person, right? ”

He was speechless: "Buying you clothes or mine?" Grandma pays for it, let me take you to pick a few more, otherwise wouldn't it be a foreign appearance to go out to visit relatives during the New Year? ”

His salary is not high, but it is not too low, so that he cannot afford it.

And the man does not have high needs for the quality of life, he is usually quite frugal and has a lot of savings.

He is very taboo to be held by others, and he usually never goes to these luxury stores, and it is rare to come once a year to accompany her, which is risky. She's good, but she doesn't appreciate it.

In short, everything Fu Wenzhou does is right, and everything he does is wrong.

Zhou Rin has been living a smooth life for more than 30 years, and it is the first time she has been so deflated, but she can't help it.

After buying clothes, they went to the mall again. Xu Xintong was absent-minded, Zhou Rin didn't talk to her, and when she was sitting on the escalator, she suddenly saw a place on the second floor, and her eyes stopped.

Zhou Rin followed and looked and saw the tie advertisement, as well as the tie on the shelf in the cupboard.

Stunned, she had already walked quickly onto the elevator.

Zhou Rin could only follow her into this tie store later.

Xu Xintong, who was still not interested in shopping just now, seemed to have found something of interest at this time, picking and choosing, and tirelessly asked the clerk what kind of color is good, and what color is good for a man in his thirties.

Zhou Rin waited beside her, watching her face turn cloudy and sunny, happily turning around, and suddenly a dark cloud suddenly seemed to be pressed in her heart.

Xu Xintong later picked a dark blue striped and burgundy one, lowered his head and stroked it, his eyes crooked.

After she came to Zhou's house, she rarely showed such a bright and beautiful expression.

Zhou Rin panicked in his heart, and went to pay in silence.

When I went back to Zhou's house to eat at noon, my aunt knew that they were coming and cooked a lot of dishes.

Xu Xintong thanked her while eating, praising her for her good craftsmanship, which made the old aunt smile.

Zhou Rin watched silently beside him, with a shallow smile on his lips.

"Out for a walk?" In the afternoon, he asked her under the porch.

Xu Xintong closed his eyes and bathed in the sun, stretching out his arms slightly: "Okay." ”

"Reluctantly." Zhou Rin snorted, "That's not going." ”

Xu Xintong glanced back at him: "Do you want to be so careful?" ”

Zhou Rin: "In your eyes, haven't I always been so careful?" ”

Xu Xintong didn't quarrel with him, turned around and walked outside.

Zhou Rin accompanied her around the family home, went to the auditorium again, and sent her back at three or four o'clock in the afternoon.

In the evening, the company had a year-end banquet, and Xu Xintong and Fang Xia went over in the same car.

During the banquet, there was a staggered mix of ideas, words and smiles, and everyone was like wearing a smiling mask. Can they see their faces under their masks? Xu Xintong felt bored, so she left her seat after a perfunctory moment.

The corridors were long, empty and lonely, with incandescent lights shining a bleak light.

She asked a passer-by how to get to the bathroom.

The other party said that this floor was being repaired and directed her to go upstairs. She folded her hands and thanked her, seeing that the elevator was still on the 26th floor, and simply went up from the fire escape.

There was also a banquet upstairs, which seemed to be the Bureau of Commerce, and the large opening to her right was open, and there was an exaggerated sound of persuasion from inside.

The bathroom was at the end of the hallway, and she walked over without squinting, but everyone had already brushed the door of the private room, and suddenly stopped and looked back.

Many of the people in it are still familiar faces, and they often appear in financial magazines and celebrity lists. It was not someone else who was surrounded in the middle of the drink, it was the person she was most familiar with, her fair face was flushed abnormally, and she knew that she had drunk a lot by looking at the wine jars on the ground.

He was laughing, but Xu Xintong felt that there was no expression on his face.
