Chapter 32: I apologize to you on behalf of my wife
The designer saw that his face was wrong, and although he didn't know what was going on, he still wisely chose to take someone out.
After a few seconds of closing the office door, the papers on the desk, along with the phone, were swept to the floor.
In the huge office, his fingers were propped up on the table, and his narrow and long eyes contained sharp black eyes, thin lips were pursed, and his eyes were lowered to cover the cold light.
Li Yueting heard the employees talking about Mr. Gu's bad mood in the pantry, so she slowly picked up the coffee cup and took a sip gently.
"Secretary Li, do you know Mr. Gu...... Is that why you're angry?" one asked.
Li Yueting stirred the coffee cup and said secretly: "Probably...... Someone upset him. ”
And this person is still on the tip of his heart, and no one can touch it.
"Who? Secretary Li, do you know the inside story?" everyone has a gossip heart.
Li Yueting smiled: "I'll guess casually, just say it." ”
Lanhu County.
Wen Zhixia nested in the soft sofa, the holographic interactive screen of the home theater, bringing an immersive visual experience, she watched quietly, I don't know how long she was lying down, her eyes were weak, and she was a little drowsy.
In her sleep, a heavy feeling of pressure swept through her body, as if someone was pressing on her chest cavity in various ways, making her unable to breathe.
Even in her sleep, her brow was furrowed.
The sound of the movie is slowly projecting, it is a very classic old movie, and the pure tone is quiet and lovely, which is very suitable for sleeping.
But she couldn't sleep, and when the feeling of suffocating from breathing hit, she opened her eyes suddenly.
In the empty room in front of me, there was no half of the lively atmosphere.
Wen Zhixia has always felt that she is a person who likes to be quiet, but in the past two years since she left her job at home, she seems to have begun to dislike this kind of lonely life more and more.
Most of the day is alone, and time becomes a little difficult.
As soon as the screen turned, it was the child's "giggling" smiling face, which silently seemed to warm a heart.
Wen Zhixia pushed open the window, the night breeze was blowing, and there was silence, as if even the cicadas were resting.
She held the phone, clicked it on it repeatedly in her hand, and then watched the screen dim little by little, click on it again, and dim it again, again and again.
"Buzz—"
The phone vibrated briefly and remembered, she fixed her eyes to look, her eyes dimmed again, it was not the person she thought it was.
[Sister Wen, I'm coming to my house tomorrow to celebrate my father's birthday, don't forget it. 】
The little girl who grew up in the flower family always has a sense of innocence of "not growing up", just looking at the text of a message, it seems that she can feel the long and upturned tail when she sends a message.
Wen Zhixia replied to her: Okay.
Hua Qianjiao: Will Sister Wen's husband also come along?
Of course, Hua Qianjiao didn't take the initiative to ask, she generally only cared about whether Wen Zhixia came or not, and Gu Pingsheng was not within her scope of concern.
But when Father Hua asked her who she had invited, Father Hua asked her to ask Gu Pingsheng.
Hua Qianjiao didn't think much about it, so she nodded in response.
Wen Zhixia paused: he ...... Work is busy.
Hua Qianjiao only remembered something at this time: Sister Wen quarreled with him, right?
Quarrel?
Wen Zhixia thought, maybe.
Isn't it like you won't come back without saying hello?
Early the next morning.
Hua Qianjiao, whose face was attached to her mobile phone, was woken up by the maid, she chatted with Wen Zhixia yesterday, and fell asleep while chatting.
"Miss, it's time to get up, the stylist ordered by Hua Dong is already waiting downstairs. ”
Hua Qianjiao was noisy, covered her face with a quilt, and said in a muffled voice: "Call me in another half an hour." ”
The maid straightened up and coughed lightly, "Hua Dong said, if the young lady lies in bed, he will send Xiao Baozi to the big bear's den." ”
Xiao Baozi is a folded ear cat raised by Hua Qianjiao, a small one, particularly cute, often put themselves together, Hua Qianjiao felt that the shape was like an ingot, so she named it Xiaobaozi.
As for the big bear, it is a big dog at the back door of the villa, and the appearance of drooling with teeth is particularly fierce, once Hua Qianjiao passed by with a little baozi, and was frightened by the deafening dog barking, and the cat was sick for a week, but she was distressed.
Hearing that his father actually threatened Xiaobaozi, Hua Qianjiao suddenly lifted the quilt and sat up, "No!"
The maid held back a smile and was serious: "That young lady, it's still ...... Hurry up and wash up, Hua Dong said, you must dress up the lady dazzlingly today. ”
Downstairs, Hua Qianjiao thought she was a wooden man, and as the stylist tossed, she sent a text message to Hua Qianjiao to complain about her father's atrocities.
Wen Zhixia's eyes dimmed as she watched the interaction between father and daughter, because she had never felt the warmth of this kind of family affection.
Before she was about to go out, she still sent a text message to Gu Pingsheng to tell him where she was going.
She waited two minutes, didn't wait for a reply, and put her phone in her bag.
The Hua family has a deep heritage, and the residence is not a new type of villa, but an old-fashioned building with a simple charm, which I heard was established by the Germans more than 100 years ago, and it is no longer possible to buy it with money alone.
There was a traffic jam on the way here, so the opportunity Wen Zhixia set off in advance, but in fact, it was almost stuck.
When she came, there were already a lot of luxury cars parked outside.
"Sister Wen, you're here. Hua Qianjiao, who was wearing a certain catwalk haute couture model, waved her hand and walked over to her, and the off-the-shoulder clothes showed her own advantages to the fullest, like the skin that was cleaned day by day with clean water, the fair and pink skin, the flesh was just thick, and there was a kind of delicacy between the eyebrows and eyes that did not care much about the worries of life.
"It was a great day. Wen Zhixia said with a smile while handing her the gift.
Hua Qianjiao pouted: "I've been dressed up for several hours, and I haven't slept enough." ”
Wen Zhixia chuckled and stretched out his hand to straighten her hair, "Hua Dong loves his daughter very much, so he naturally wants his most precious daughter to appear in front of everyone in the most perfect manner." ”
An accident back then made Hua Qianjiao a stupid person who was talked about, how could Hua's father be indifferent when he heard his beloved daughter being talked about like this.
Hua Qianjiao hung her head and said in a low voice: "I know, it's just ...... I don't want to come out. ”
Even a babbling child can feel the malice from the outside world, she is just mentally degraded, not really stupid.
"Jiaojiao, no matter what happens, you are the little princess of the Hua family, and this will never change, just like ...... They only dare to talk behind their backs, and no one dares to really touch your moldy head. ”
This is the benefit of her identity, so that even if she is different from ordinary people, she can live a stable life.
"I said who is this familiar, it turns out that it is our Xiao Wen, I haven't seen him for so long, our Xiao Wen always seems to be much worse than before. With a mocking smile, Wang Haiqiong walked over with a wine glass, and there was something to say.
This circle is only so big, and you will always run into each other when you go around, otherwise how can there be a saying that "the road is narrow".
Wang Haiqiong, a strong woman in the industry, doesn't deal with Wen Zhixia very well.
The opposite sex will attract, the same sex will automatically reject in most cases, especially some people prefer to compare with the same sex, if she presses you, it is good to win, if you lose, most of them will always remember, and always ready to beat you, no matter what way.
"Yes, Mr. Wang is still beautiful and brilliant. "There is no need for verbal arguments. It's just a plain foreign appearance for others to see, this kind of thing Wen Zhixia never wanted to do.
Wang Haiqiong raised a glass to her, and said meaningfully: "Back then, Mr. Gu and Mr. Xiao Wen were inseparable, sticky like a person, how is this now...... Can't even see anyone?"
Wen Zhixia lowered his head and chuckled: "He's busy." ”
Wang Haiqiong also smiled, shook the wine glass with her red-painted nails, took a sip, and said: "Mr. Gu is indeed a lot busy, I don't have Mr. Xiaowen to be blessed, and now I enjoy Qingfu by eating, sleeping and sleeping all day long at home, and I want to grab business with a group of men." Women like us just can't think about it, and we always feel that it is better to be self-reliant than to eat. ”
She was short of Wen Zhixia everywhere back then, and now Wen Zhixia has become a full-time housewife, and she is still a strong woman, since she has seized the opportunity, she has to say a few words.
Hua Qianjiao could hear the sneer and mocking malice between the words, and she puffed out her cheeks in dissatisfaction, wanting to drive people out.
Wen Zhixia grabbed her arm, with a faint smile: "I naturally remember that Mr. Wang has always done it himself, even if he ......" her clear and glamorous lips, "Even if the other party is married, even if the other party is old enough to be his own father, in order to discuss business, they can meet in the middle of the night, in the car at the door of the other party's house, and finally they were dragged out of the car by the original partner with their hair pulled and disheveled."
The next day, there was a lot of trouble in the city, and blood was poured among the people in front of the company, and nothing happened as usual. It's just that I heard that Mr. Wang seems to stay at the home of a director of the company for a week, and this director is trying to keep your position?"
The business district is so big, and in the meantime, it is necessary to be well-informed, especially if it is still such a noisy event. So even Wen Zhixia, who never liked gossip, easily knew the whole story of things back then.
So, don't want a strong woman who "eats the food"?
Set up a character for yourself, do you also have to see how ...... Can you stand and live?
Wang Haiqiong clenched the wine glass in her hand, obviously Wen Zhixia's light words poked at the past in her heart that she didn't want to be mentioned.
"I haven't seen you for two years, Xiao Wen is still so sharp-toothed. ”
The corners of Wen Zhixia's lips hooked slightly: "Thank you for the compliment." ”
She is rarely so aggressive and talks about ugly things, but it also depends on what kind of person the other party is.
In order to regain the purity of her ears, she doesn't mind helping others reminisce about the past.
To put it bluntly, the history of a person's upward climb, in most cases, has some gray areas. Some people can keep the bottom line, and some people choose to give up for the greater good, which is a matter of self-selection.
But if you know how to be a human being, you should understand that being kind to others is being kind to yourself, and maintaining a superficial harmony is often covering up your ugliness.
After all, the human heart is like a rotten apple, with a little moldy appearance, half rotten, and ...... The black-hearted ones, after cutting and peeling them off, most of them can't be seen.
If you want to trample people under your feet to show your superiority, how do you know when you step on it, and the boat capsizes?
Wang Haiqiong sneered and left with a wine glass, but before leaving, she said: "Xiao Wen is always so clever and eloquent, no wonder...... Mr. Gu couldn't resist. This man still likes a woman he can control. ”
The wine glass was brought to her lips, and Wen Zhixia took a sip lightly, "The matter between our husband and wife is not bothered by outsiders. ”
Wang Haiqiong curled the corners of her mouth mockingly: See how long you can be proud.
"Sister Wen, this woman is so annoying. Hua Qianjiao muttered quietly.
Wen Zhixia: "Don't pay attention to her, where there are many people, there is always a tongue." ”
Hua Qianjiao nodded in approval: "What did you say...... Hmm? Qing Qi is here. ”
Her eyes lit up when she saw Qing Qi coming into the door, and then she quickly turned her head and asked Wen Zhixia, "Am I good-looking now?"
Wen Zhixia nodded, "It's beautiful." ”
After getting her affirmative answer, Hua Qianjiao smiled and bent her eyes, ready to walk in the direction of Qing Qi.
However, before she walked over, another woman appeared next to Qing Qi - Lin Huiqian.
The two appeared holding hands, attracting the attention of many people, after all, ...... It is no secret that Hua Qing's two-year marriage has long been a secret.
Now that Qing Qi is so blatantly taking a woman to appear at Father Hua's birthday banquet, this is no different from directly slapping the Hua family in the face.
Lin Huiqian snuggled up to Qing Qi's side, without the slightest ostentation, only the shyness of a little woman, "Qing Qi, if you bring me here like this, will it anger Hua Dong?"
Qing Qi patted the back of her hand soothingly, "I'm here." ”
When someone knowingly stepped forward to ask about the relationship between the two, Qing Qi looked at Hua Qianjiao, who was red-eyed, and paused.
"Qingqi, what's wrong with you?" Lin Huiqian asked knowingly, pretending to be puzzled.
Hua Qianjiao turned upstairs, and Wen Zhixia was ready to catch up when she saw this.
Result –
"Oh, you're in such a hurry to be reincarnated...... It turned out to be Mr. Xiao Wen, look at this, I'm so embarrassed to stain your clothes. Do you bring a change of clothes? I have them in the trunk of this car, and if Xiao Wen always needs them, I'll have them brought to you?"
Wang Haiqiong said words of apology, but in fact, there was no guilt in her expression or in her eyes.
It does not hide its deliberate ingredients in the slightest.
Wen Zhixia furrowed her brows, looked down at her clothes that were splashed with red wine, and in an instant, she casually took the wine glass held by the passing maid, flicked the wall of the glass with her fingertips, and in the next second, it was directly splashed on Wang Haiqiong's face.
She's just indifferent, not really without a temper,
"Ahh
The movement was too loud, which caused many people's side eyes.
Wen Zhixia put down the wine glass in his hand and said lightly: "It's all splashed, do you think I dare, or don't I dare?"
And, why wouldn't she dare?
If she still needs to be cautious and crush her teeth and swallow it in her stomach, then what is the point of her working hard to make money and founding a company over the years?
"Wang Haiqiong, I won't provoke you, if you are interested, don't come to me to find unhappiness, this glass of wine is my salute, as for the clothes, it is better to leave it to yourself. She turned to leave.
Wang Haiqiong wiped her face angrily, and when Wen Zhixia walked by, her eyes twisted, and she "missed" and tore off the tablecloth, and Wen Zhixia's high heels, who were dodging, fell on the plate containing pastries on the ground, lost the support point under her feet and slipped on the ground, and pressed her palm on a piece of broken glass.
She was afraid of the pain, and immediately frowned.
"Look at me, I was so careless, it's okay, I'll help you up. Wang Haiqiong hurriedly bent over, wanting to help the person up.
Wen Zhixia avoided her hand.
"Xiao Wen is still unwilling to forgive me?" asked Wang Haiqiong.
"Today is Hua Dong's birthday, Xia Xia, no matter how you do, you have to give the master a face, presumably Mr. Wang will not be unable to get on the stage, and deliberately do something to you. When Wang Haiqiong was raking upside down, a thin and cool voice sounded.
Everyone turned around and saw Gu Pingsheng in a suit and leather shoes, with a long and jade body.
Wen Zhixia followed the prestige, and when he saw him, his eyes were surprised for a moment, obviously he didn't expect that he would come.
Gu Pingsheng strode over, and only then did he slowly slow down after approaching her, he bent down, helped the person up from the ground, his eyes touched her bloody fingers, and his cold eyes narrowed slightly.
He opened his mouth and asked the servant not far away to bring the medicine box, and it turned out to be so grandiose, in the staggered hall, he handled Wen Zhixia's palm.
When Hua Dong heard the news and rushed over, the maid was dealing with the mess on the ground.
Gu Pingsheng was treating Wen Zhixia's wound and asked in a low voice, "Does it hurt?"
Seeing this, Hua Dong didn't know whether he should speak at this time, so he could only instruct the servant first: "...... Go and call the doctor. ”
Wen Zhixia lifted his eyes: "No need uncle, it's not a big deal." ”
Gu Pingsheng raised his eyes to look at her, rubbed his fingertips against her palm, and pressed it: "Why don't you wait for me to come along?"
His words lightly explained the fact that the two of them did not come together, not that they couldn't come together, but that Wen Zhixia had a good relationship with Hua Qianjiao and wanted to come early, and he could only arrive later because of the work at hand.
Wen Zhixia looked at him and didn't speak.
Gu Pingsheng stood up, "Hua Dong has caused you trouble, Xia Xia and Miss Hua have a good relationship, I can't wait to congratulate you on your birthday in advance, I didn't expect such a thing to happen and disturb your Yaxing." ”
Hua Dong said with a smile: "Don't bother, don't bother, a little thing, just know Xia's hand is fine." ”
Wang Haiqiong: "Mr. Gu really cares for Xiao Wen, he has to take care of him personally, he has been married for so long, and he can still be so close, he is really envious of others." ”
"I only have Xia Xia as a wife, if I don't put her at ease, who should I put at ease?" he smiled, but he didn't reach the bottom of his eyes.
His words made Wang Haiqiong, who wanted to say something more, dumbfounded, and looked a little embarrassed where he stood there.
Wang Haiqiong can provoke when Wen Zhixia is alone, but once Gu Pingsheng stands by her side, he is the best rumor crusher.
Even the bosses who heard some rumors saw this, and they all understood something: even if Gu Pingsheng raised a woman outside, his wife was only Wen Zhixia, and he cared about this wife, so no one would touch this mold and find this trouble.
He did not directly investigate what Wang Haiqiong did, because this was already the best deterrent.
Hua Dong glanced at Wang Haiqiong, a little displeased, today is his birthday, Wang Haiqiong did this kind of tricks, not to take Wen Zhixia in his eyes, but also to ruin his interest.
Fortunately, at this time, the flower mother came forward, "Today is a good day for my master, everyone don't stand still, continue, continue." ”
The host came forward, and the atmosphere of the scene slowly reactivated.
Hua Mu was quickly called away by the maid, saying that Hua Qianjiao ran back to the room crying.
Wen Zhixia wanted to follow and take a look, but Hua Mu stopped her and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'll take a look, you and Mr. Gu have a good time coming, you play." ”
Gu Pingsheng also held her arm: "As soon as I'm not in your hands, it's better to stay by my side, we haven't seen Mr. Wang for so long, and it's just time to catch up." ”
People who don't have much to do with it in the first place, insist on reminiscing about the past, and it seems that there is something to say.
Hua Dong's mind was not here, his eyes looked at the woman beside Qing Qi, although Qing Qi still knew the proportions at the Hua family's banquet, and introduced Lin Huiqian only as a cousin.
But Hua Dong is very clear about Lin Huiqian's identity, his daughter is like this now, and he doesn't know when she will recover, and he, as a father, naturally has to worry more about her.
Gu Pingsheng picked up two wine glasses from the table and glanced at Wen Zhixia, "I hurt my hand, I can't drink, this glass of wine will be given to Mr. Wang." ”
Wang Haiqiong stretched out her hand and heard him say, "I'm a little late, I don't know if Mr. Wang can tell me what happened just now?" Xia Xia's skin is delicate, and the scar on her palm doesn't know when it will be restored. ”
Obviously, after the autumn is settled, Wang Haiqiong is not, and it is not acceptable.
Gu Pingsheng raised his eyebrows slightly, and his wine glass turned slightly: "Mr. Wang." ”
Wang Haiqiong came back to her senses and took it, "It's just, it's just that I wasn't careful, I didn't expect Xiao Wen to always step on it." ”
Accidental?
Gu Pingsheng's eyes turned the wine glass in his hand deeply, "Hua Dong's birthday celebrities gather, and accidents are inevitable." He paused, and the conversation changed, "However, because of Mr. Wang's carelessness, Xia Xia hurt his finger, and I apologize to you for my wife, isn't it too much?"
Just wants a normal apology, no matter how you hear this, it seems that you are not ready to pursue the follow-up, you just want to calm things down.
But Wen Zhixia knew that letting Wang Haiqiong, who had always regarded her as an imaginary enemy, apologize to Gu Pingsheng like this in front of everyone, which made her more uncomfortable than slapping her directly.
Wen Zhixia looked at Gu Pingsheng and suspected that he did it on purpose.
As if sensing her gaze, Gu Pingsheng turned his head and looked at each other, with a strange light in his eyes and a sound of dogs and horses.
Wen Zhixia opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything.
The atmosphere at the scene was a little frozen, and Wang Haiqiong's complexion was difficult to see.
