Gao Yize was having dinner with a client when he received Ruotong's call.
"Yi...Yize," Ruotong shivered because of the cold, and she spoke intermittently: "I...I can't go home, you...can you come pick me up?"
She stood at the door for more than two hours in the cold wind. She wanted to go down the mountain, but she didn't see any car passing by. This place was far away from the city, how could there be a car? In desperation, she could only call her friend.
Ask for help. Su Muyu doesn’t have a car, Guo Zheming and Youyou have already fallen out with her, and the only person she can think of is Gao Yize.
Gao Yize frowned, feeling very worried about Ruotong. He walked out of the box quickly and asked anxiously: "Where are you?" As for why she couldn't go home, he thought it was not the point now, the point was to find her quickly.
Ruotong told Gao Yize her address on the phone. She didn't know where this place was at first, but when she came with Ao Rui, she asked out of curiosity, and Ao Rui told her generously. Now it seems
, if she had not been curious and talkative, she might not have been able to get down the mountain. She couldn't expect Ao Rui, who was accompanying Ao Zhongming in the hospital at this time, to come back and take her back?
Gao Yize returned to the hotel box, hurriedly said goodbye to the client, and then left the hotel as quickly as possible, heading alone to the address Ruotong told him.
After four years of absence, he was already very unfamiliar with this city. Thanks to the navigation system and telephone communication with Ruotong, otherwise, he was really not sure that he could find Ruotong. In the process of searching for her, his heart was always hanging.
, worrying about that little woman’s safety all the time.
When he arrived at Ruotong's address, he saw Ruotong standing at the door of the villa from the car window. Although she was wearing a men's suit, her petite body was still shivering in the cold wind.
His heart tightened, he stopped the car, and then rushed out of the car and ran to Ruotong. Through the car lights, he saw that Ruotong's face was as pale as a piece of paper. "Ruotong." He looked at her with distress.
When the big hand touched her arm, she realized that her skin was as cold as ice.
"Yi...Yize." Ruotong forced a smile on her delicate face. Because it was too cold, she could not even call his name without trembling.
Gao Yize held Ruotong tightly in his arms and used his own body temperature to warm her. "How long have you been standing here alone? Why didn't you call me earlier?" The words that spilled out between his lips and teeth were filled with deep emotions.
Cherish.
Only when Ruotong came into contact with his body temperature did she realize how cold she was and how warm he was.
"Get in the car first." Gao Yize hugged her, who was shivering all over, and got into the car.
In the car, Gao Yize turned the heating to the maximum, and Ruotong's cold body slowly recovered its body temperature. He didn't ask anything, just drove her down the mountain quietly.
He sent her back to his home and thoughtfully brought her hot tea to warm her up. Her cold body seemed to have improved a lot, but her eyes were as blurry as a ghost.
Questions kept coming to his mind, why did she put on such heavy makeup? Why was she alone in that place? Why couldn't she go home? Who sent her there?
It wasn't until she drank the hot tea that Gao Yize looked into the depths of her blurred pupils and asked her softly: "Ruotong, can you tell me what happened?" His intuition told him that this matter was related to her fiancé, and it must be
Not a good thing.
Ruotong put the empty cup on the table, the sadness in her eyes became more intense, like a bleak autumn. "I did a big mistake, I hurt others..." She lowered her head and bit her lips.
, as if trying to bite it to make it bleed.
"Can you be more specific? If you don't tell me, even if we are friends, I won't be able to help you." Gao Yize looked eagerly at her, who was curled up in the quilt, looking pitiful like an injured cat.
Ruotong was speechless. She felt as if thousands of troops were galloping in her heart, trampling her so hard that it hurt.
"Ruotong, if you still regard me as a friend, then please tell me. If you have any difficulties, I will try my best to help you." Gao Yize gently induced her.
"I...I made a big mistake, I almost killed President Ao..." Ruotong cried in a low voice and told Gao Yize tremblingly, word by word.
"What?" Gao Yize widened his eyes and looked at Ruotong in disbelief, suspecting that there was a serious problem with his hearing.
The reputations of Ao Rui and Ao Zhongming are well-known both at home and abroad. Everyone in the shopping mall knows their names, and Gao Yize is no exception. But what puzzles him is how could Ruotong meet President Ao
Get involved.
Before that, he didn't know that Ao Rui was Ruotong's lover and fiancé.
Ruotong grabbed Gao Yize's shoulders, buried her little face in his chest, and cried softly in his arms.
She really regrets that she agreed to Ao Rui's request to go up the mountain. She even wants to kill herself. If something happens to Ao Zhongming, she will have uneasy conscience for the rest of her life. Now it seems that Wen Shihe and his daughter scolded her as a disaster.
There is nothing wrong with the criticism.
Gao Yize's heart wrinkled up because of Ruotong's sad and suppressed cries. There were too many things he didn't know.
Only after she had cried enough, Ruotong, under Gao Yize's gentle guidance, told Gao Yize everything from her meeting with Ao Rui to the events that put Ao Zhongming in the hospital.
Gao Yize felt as if he was listening to a bizarre story. While listening, he always stared at Ruotong with all his attention. But along with his concentration was infinite heartache. The woman he fell in love with turned out to be someone else's mistress.
…
For a while, it was difficult for him to accept this fact.
After taking a long time to calm down, he began to ask her his first question: "Before you made that decision, didn't you think that one day you would be a gangster?"
He really couldn't figure it out. How could she, who had always been smart, make such a crazy and unbelievable decision? Putting aside the fact that Ao Rui was her fiancé, how could she devote herself to a man casually? He is an elegant gentleman.
, just for appearance, isn't she afraid that she will get angry? If he were Ao Rui, he would never easily let go of a woman who plays tricks on him.
"I think I've thought about it, but I don't think Mr. Ao is interested in a woman like me. If he's not interested, then he won't care about anything I do." Ruotong said, and then
He lowered his head and his voice was very low.
Gao Yize finally understood the reason why she insisted on making this choice. It was not that she was too bold, but that she underestimated herself and Ao Rui too much. In his opinion, Ao Rui is pursuing her now because he wants to torture her.
She retaliated for the fact that she had played with him, and on the other hand, Ao Rui had developed a strong interest in her. Otherwise, if he wanted to take revenge, Ao Rui could directly take the most effective method without having to
Wasting time pursuing a woman he is not interested in.
"How did you avoid him discovering your true identity?" Gao Yize asked her a second question.
"It's a lot of lies," Ruotong replied softly, and then she added in a low voice: "Disguise yourself as a gold digger with inflated vanity."
"Has he never doubted you?" Gao Yize asked her the third question.
"I have suspected it. But he doesn't care much. This only shows that he is really not interested in women like me, which is why I can stay with him for so long." Ruotong explained in a low voice.
"Then how do you explain it to your father?" Gao Yize asked the fourth question.
Ruotong bit his lip and then said, "I didn't tell him."
Sure enough, Gao Yize guessed right. Ruotong did it without telling Long Qingshan. No father would allow his daughter to do whatever he wants. "If your father finds out, how are you going to explain to him?" This was his first question.
Five questions.
"I don't know." Ruotong looked worried and melancholy. If she could marry Ao Rui, her father might let the matter go, but if she failed, his father would never let it go.
"God, did you know you were in big trouble? If your father and Jiang Zhufang found out, do you think they would let you go?" Gao Yize couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for her.
"I...I didn't know that things would become so serious." Ruotong looked aggrieved and wanted to cry. If he had known, he would not have become Ao Rui's mistress even if he had beaten her to death.
Seeing her looking so sad, Gao Yize didn't want to suppress her anymore, so he asked her: "Then what are you going to do now?"
Ruotong looked at him and spoke slowly. "I plan to end the relationship with him." As soon as the words came out, she felt relieved, but at the same time, she felt more reluctance and heartache.
If it ends, will Ao Rui still pursue her? She can't hide the fire in the paper. She is worried that one day her identity as Monroe will be known to Ao Zhongming. By then, can she still marry Ao Rui? What if?
There is no possibility between her and Ao Rui, so what about her? Where should she go?
"Ruotong, you'd better break up with your fiancé as soon as possible! At this juncture, if you continue to anger President Ao, the consequences will be unbearable for you." Gao Yize said with a sad look in his eyes. He felt as if
A hole was pried open, emptiness, infinite emptiness...
Ruotong lowered his head, silently listening to Gao Yize's advice, and secretly told himself: After going back, he must find a chance to break off the relationship with Ao Rui. The suit jacket on his body was still filled with his cologne and unique scent.
Breath. The past memories came to mind, and his mind was filled with the figure of Ao Rui. "I'll clean up the room for you." Gao Yize stood up and left.
That night, Ruotong slept in the guest room of the Gao family, while Gao Yize slept in his own room. The two of them stayed up all night at the same time, each with their own worries.
