In late autumn last year, when the sycamore leaves were flying, on that cold night, an order made her meet him.
From enemies to colleagues to lovers, he gave her the brightest shining point in her life. Her ordinary life became colorful because of him.
Now, because of him, she is as humble as dust. She is also covered in bruises.
"I have something to ask you. Just stop." Nan Xi swallowed the bitterness in her heart and repeated it more firmly.
Zhuo Ling stopped but didn't look back for a long time. He also followed An Qi's way of speaking and said rigidly: "Since you haven't left the company yet, let's talk about work matters in the office tomorrow."
Nan Xi endured it. She rushed up and grabbed his arm, begging and trying to stay. "It's not a work matter. It's a matter between us. It's a private matter. You..."
Before she could finish speaking, Zhuo Ling raised her arm and waved her hand away in disgust. Nan Xi's palm suddenly fell into pieces. She stood there blankly. Tears welling up in her eyes stopped. I couldn't help it. It started to flow down.
If she hadn't heard Zhuo Ling say it with her own ears before, she could still have spent two months deceiving herself. But now, he was standing in front of her. He was saying such heartless words so coldly. She was really heartbroken. Knife cut.
Zhuo Ling twitched his eyebrows and couldn't help turning his head to glance at her. Just this one glance completely defeated all his armor. His eyes also turned red.
An Qi couldn't sit still in the car. She honked the horn twice and said loudly: "Miss He, even if you want to pester me, you should wait until my fiancée leaves. You are crying and pestering my fiancé in front of me. You Have you ever considered my feelings?"
The sound of the car horn and An Qi's voice reminded Zhuo Ling in time. Fortunately, it was night and the dim street lights did not reveal the expression on his face. Zhuo Ling turned back ruthlessly. "Go back. Between us... …nothing to say."
The gorgeous fireworks ended in an instant. No matter how beautiful the epiphyllum bloomed, it was just a flash.
There is nothing to say between us.
This was the explanation Zhuo Ling gave her two months after leaving.
He stayed up all night. Nan Xi watched the sun gradually rise in the east. His eyes hurt terribly. The pillow towel was already soaked.
When I got up and got out of bed, my calves were very sore. When I stepped on the ground, my feet also hurt.
Last night, she walked back from the Sheshan villa area. She walked for three hours.
But today, she still endured the physical and mental pain and went to work just because she wanted to ask Zhuo Ling.
Yes. She has not given up yet. She is born to be such a stubborn person. She will never look back until she hits the wall.
Zhuo Ling said that he just inexplicably likes her stubborn temperament. But now, he should have a headache.
"President, all the business information for the past two months is here. The ones in the red folder need your signature. The ones in the blue folder need your review. Also, Mr. Qiu said he would report to you in the afternoon."
"Okay. Just leave it here." Zhuo Ling did not raise his head, nor did he stop the pen in his hand.
Nanxi put a thick stack of documents on the desk. Seeing how indifferent he was, she walked towards the door angrily. But halfway through, she came back without giving up. "You can't listen to me properly." Say a word?"
Finally, Zhuo Ling stopped the pen in his hand and raised his head. The moment he saw Nan Xi, he couldn't help but take a deep breath. His second-rate girl became thinner and haggard. Her stubbornness left her covered with bruises but she still couldn't help it. He was willing to give up. He was moved and reluctant to give up. More importantly, he felt heartbroken.
He was touched because she still loved him deeply under such circumstances. He was even more heartbroken because she had to suffer so much torture and grievance. He couldn't let her go.
"What to say? Just say it." He put down the pen in his hand, calmly and calmly.
She was given a chance to talk but she didn't know where to start. Nan Xi clenched her fists. After brewing for a long time, she finally said something. "Zhuo Ling, have you always been playing with me? Have you ever What's the reason? On the night of the design competition, what did the Champions League blackmail you to do?"
Zhuo Ling just smiled slightly. There was soft sunlight on his back. "What are you talking about? Who can threaten me? Besides, Ou Guansheng and An Qi are two people who can't be beaten with eight poles. How could Ou Guansheng do it for An Qi? Threaten me. Ridiculous.”
Nanxi blinked her eyes. Even in the soft sunlight, her eyes were so sensitive that she felt afraid. Seeing this soft light, her eyes hurt and she wanted to shed tears.
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing her blinking her eyes uncomfortably, as if she was about to faint, Zhuo Ling stood up anxiously.
Nanxi smiled. She shed tears and laughed at the same time. "You are worried about me. Haha. I know you have difficulties. It doesn't matter. I can tolerate anything. If you don't say it, it's for my own good. I know. Zhuo Ling. No matter what happens, I trust you in everything. I wait for you to handle everything. I wait for you..."
Zhuo Ling looked at her deeply. His little girl was stronger than he thought. He almost ran over to hug her.
"Whatever you want. I can't stop you from deceiving yourself." Finally, he said harsh words. "You want an answer before you give up, right? Then let me tell you, I'm just tired of playing with you. You act like a piece of wood every time. Very disappointing. That's the kind of person I am. None of the women around me can last more than a month. Keeping you by my side for five months is already a record. He Nanxi, don't be so naive. I'm not just with you. Together. I’m also with several women. Don’t you understand yet? I’m just playing with you.”
"Do you have to hurt me like this? Do you have to say such harsh words?"
"I'm tired of playing now. Be sensible. Don't bother me. Go out to work. Are you waiting for me to fire you?"
A series of words came out of Zhuo Ling's mouth, as fast as a machine gun. Nan Xi went from heartbroken to numb to adapting. She still stood upright in front of him and said: "I will work hard and I will never give it to you. Chance to fire me.”
"Okay. Then you have to be careful. Don't let me catch any mistakes. I have always been strict with my work. I hope you can complete the task I gave you well. Go out."
Nan Xi has never been so afraid of light as she is now. She doesn't want to cry. It's just that her eyes are so sore and painful that she keeps crying. She believes that what Zhuo Ling said is definitely not true.
Since returning to the company, Zhong Fei has been restless and restless. He doesn't know what's going on with Zhuo Ling. He breaks up when he says to break up, and gets married when he says to get married. There are constant gossips in his ears, all of which are discussing Nan Xi. They used to be jealous of Nanxi. Now they can finally laugh at her.
"Stop arguing. You also worked with this attitude when the president was away. No wonder the performance has dropped so sharply."
Zhong Fei showed his masculine side for the first time. The office hall of Nuo Da suddenly became quiet. Even the sound of Nan Xi closing the door when she came out of the CEO's office was so clear.
At this moment, Nanxi was undoubtedly in a state of embarrassment. There was inevitably another round of whispers among colleagues.
