Xi Haitang raised her eyes, staring at Gu Xijue for a moment, and his eyes were locked tightly with hers. Their eyes met, and their reflections were reflected in each other's eyes, but there was no words.
It can be said.
She took a deep breath and slowly loosened her clenched lips, "I mind. I have never minded someone as deeply as Rou'er. Every time I hear her name, my heart hurts like a needle.
, even when I saw her with you last time and I didn’t know who she was, I still instinctively had a grudge against her. At that time, I thought I was neurotic, but now that I know, I’m even more
I can't help but mind. I'm not a saint. I can't treat her like a stranger and nothing has happened. To me, you are a knife, and she is the blade on the knife!"
Gu Xijue's heart trembled suddenly, "Begonia, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Besides saying sorry, what else could he say?
Xi Haitang shook his head lightly, "Stop talking, I want to leave."
His expression was very painful, and his heart was as sharp as a knife, "Begonia, my feelings for Rou'er can't be expressed in words, but I couldn't ignore her. Back then..."
"I don't want to know!" She cut off his words and secretly clenched her hands hanging by her sides into fists, "I'm not interested in what's going on between you and I never want to know! I'm leaving!"

Room 206 where Fang Xiujuan is located.
"Haitang, why don't you look so good?"
"Uh...is there any?" Xi Haitang touched his face as if uncomfortably, his eyes averting slightly.
Fang Xiujuan couldn't help feeling a little distressed when she saw her look, "Haitang, are you too tired from work? Don't work too hard. It's too hard for you to do two jobs by yourself!"
"It's okay, I can handle it." Xi Haitang said firmly. Although Gu Xijue gave her several unlimited gold cards, she would not use his money, never!
Lin Ling didn't know why, so she suggested half seriously and half jokingly, "Sister Haitang, you might as well find a man to marry. It would be great to have a long-term meal ticket!"
Xi Haitang's face froze and she looked at her ring finger. Although there was no wedding ring on it, she was already married!
She and Gu Xijue didn't have a wedding, and not many people knew about their marriage. Does this count as a hidden marriage? Xi Haitang thought a little self-deprecatingly.
Fang Xiujuan was one of the few people who knew the situation. She had noticed something was wrong between Haitang and Gu Xijue a long time ago. Not long ago, Haitang came to see her with her two children. She recognized Yunhen at a glance.
After asking, she found out that Haitang and Gu Xijue were actually registered for marriage! Although Haitang didn't say what happened, seeing that the child was so old, it was not difficult to guess everything, but she really didn't expect that Haitang and Gu Xijue
The bond between them is so deep.
Seeing that Lin Ling's unintentional words had embarrassed Haitang, Fang Xiujuan quickly changed the subject, "Men are unreliable these days. Look, I'm just an example. What a painful lesson! It's better for women to rely on themselves. Haitang is so capable.
Being so young, of course I want to devote all my efforts to my career! Lin Ling, are you right?"
"Uh, that's right!" Lin Ling was young and cheerful, so she was quickly fooled.
"That is to say, it is better for a woman to be financially independent and have an independent career!" Fang Xiujuan continued on this topic, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and quickly took out an invitation letter with red letters and gilding from the bedside table.
"By the way, I can't participate in this 'Hand-Hand Appointment' competition. Haitang, you go ahead!"
Xi Haitang and Lin Ling were both stunned, "A promise to hold hands?!"
The Appointment of Hands is an event that jewelry celebrities from all over the world flock to. It is like the Hong Kong Film Awards, which plays a decisive role in the industry. It has a century-old heritage and is held once every ten years. It is a spectacular event. Every jewelry design
Designers all dream of taking their works to participate in competitions. No matter whether they win or not, as long as they receive an invitation letter, it means that the industry has affirmed their design standards. A small invitation letter is the most authoritative indicator of ability and strength.
Recognition.
"Sister Fang, the 'hand-holding appointment' only happens once every ten years. It will be a pity if you don't go!"
"Unfortunately, there is nothing I can do. My due date is coming soon. How can I have the time and energy to design works? Haitang, I will give you this opportunity. You go and try it!"
"But the person invited by the organizing committee is you, Sister Fang..."
"It doesn't matter. I have been in this industry for almost 20 years and have a lot of connections. I will tell them later that it is normal for me to be unable to compete in this situation. Wouldn't it be better to give the opportunity to newcomers?"
"Can I really do this?!" Xi Haitang was still not sure, she had no confidence in herself.
"Haitang, just feel free to prepare your work and leave the rest to me!"
Lin Ling also nodded repeatedly, "Begonia, Sister Fang is right. This kind of opportunity only comes once in a lifetime. There are a few designers who can catch up with the ten-year appointment in their best years, and some people's design careers add up to less than ten years."
You have quit this circle since the year, you must not waste such a good opportunity in vain!"
Xi Haitang secretly clenched his fists, maybe it was time to give it a try!

That night, Xi Haitang began to make preparations.
Both children were asleep, but her work was just about to begin.
Turning on the computer, Xi Haitang went online to collect information about previous editions of "Hand in Hand". It awards awards at the end of March every year, and all contestants must submit their works before March 1, so she only has one now.
It's been many months.
The special web page was opened, and the banner showed the last champion's work, which has lasted ten years and has endured for a long time. The designer's signature is - Xiao Muyuan.
Xi Haitang couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth. Ten years ago, her senior asked her to shoot outdoor scenes on the rocks at the beach. She was scared to death, fearing that her jerky performance would not be able to express the soul of his work, but she didn't expect that it actually happened.
He succeeded. He won the first prize with that work and became the youngest gold medal winner in the history of "Hand in Hand". He has since become a legend in the jewelry design industry.
It’s been ten years. In the blink of an eye, it’s been ten years!
Sighing softly, Xi Haitang was a little distracted, so she didn't realize in time that Gu Xijue had opened the door and entered the house. It wasn't until his footsteps reached the door of her room that she suddenly woke up.
"Uh... you said you were going to stay in the hospital tonight, why did you suddenly come here again?"
"I..." As soon as she opened her mouth, Gu Xijue inadvertently raised her eyes and saw her computer. The screen stayed on Xiao Muyuan's signature.
