Mint bent down and sat in the car, but as soon as he sat down, he immediately regretted it.
Why are you so impulsive?
He glanced at the man next to him from the corner of his eye. Under the hazy moonlight, the outline of that handsome face was clearer. There was a thin arc on the edge of his thin lips. Although it was very shallow, he was indeed smiling, but I didn't know it was a mockery.
, or a joke.
The man's silent laughter seemed to be stirring invisibly.
Mint bit her lip in annoyance. She didn't know why, but every time she met Guan Shouheng, she always behaved recklessly. This was not like her at all!
She frowned secretly, feeling regret all over her body, but it was too late.
He would not allow her to regret it, nor would she allow herself to run away from the battlefield.
"Fasten your seat belt." A deep male voice fell into my ears.
She had no choice but to do it.
The car quickly started and slid into the night.
The weather has not been very good recently, but the night tonight is very clear, and the sky is full of stars, which is beautiful.
She inadvertently looked up at the starry sky, and as soon as she saw it, she was stunned.
Seeing those beautiful stars brings back memories far, far away.
At that time, she was still a very, very little girl, so young that she daydreamed all day long.
At that time, her biggest dream was to count how many stars there were in the sky. How silly!
At that time, her father was still there, and he told her that there were too many stars to count, but every child had a guardian star.
"Why?" she asked stupidly, raising her little head.
"Because every child is God's darling, a little angel. When they come to the mortal world to report, they will encounter all kinds of hardships. God cares about them and gives each child a guardian star to shine on them as they grow up.
.”
"Do I have one too?" she asked in surprise.
"Of course, my dear."
"Then where is my guardian star? Which one is it?" She pointed to the sky curiously.
"The biggest and brightest one."
She was so happy, "My guardian star is the most beautiful!"
"Of course, because you are daddy's baby, daddy wants to give you the best."
…
The voices and smiles in my memory gradually faded away, and all that was left in front of me was sadness.
She closed her eyes hard and endured the sourness.
Unknowingly, I fell asleep.
As the night grew darker, the speed of the car silently slowed down, slowed down, and couldn't go any slower.
Guan Shouheng slowly turned his head and looked at the sleeping woman beside him, his eyes as gentle as water.
Her head was leaning against the car window, half of her face was hidden in her slightly scattered hair, her eyelashes were very long and the shadows were heavy, and the tiredness between her eyebrows was clearly visible.
"I'm sorry, Mint." He murmured, apologizing softly.
She is so tired because he forced her to do so, right?
He knew that she had been working overtime these days. Although he did not deliberately make things difficult for her like before, her work pressure was actually even greater.
He gave her a new dictionary that day, and she must have started reading it as soon as she took it back. He knew better than anyone how strong she was.
Perhaps, he should give her more breathing space and reduce her work load, but he knew that she would definitely not accept it.
The last thing she needs right now is his sympathy.
In fact, he couldn't figure out his feelings. He originally hated her, but then he suddenly realized that there was no reason to hate her anymore.
He already knows about her downfall, has seen Shen Mei, and he can already understand why she insisted on divorcing him back then.
Therefore, he can no longer hate her.
Of course he sympathized with her plight, but it wasn't just sympathy.
It was just because of the child's problem that he couldn't completely let go of it for the time being, but he tried very hard to forget that incident, so he asked her for a date and wanted to live together peacefully first.
Unexpectedly, the plan did not change quickly, and he did not expect that he would get out of control that night in the small attic.
He has always been a person with strong self-control, and she has always been a very rational person, but at that time, with that scene and that feeling, they couldn't help themselves.
So he knew that she had not really forgotten him, otherwise she would not have left him sleeping in the small attic that night, and nothing like that would have happened.
But the next morning, she drove him away mercilessly and turned against her. At that time, he was really angry and slammed the door and left.
Then the next day, at a dinner party with colleagues, she was with Zhuo Xi again, and he was envious and jealous!
His pride told him that he should let her go and be with whomever she wanted to be with, but the true voice in his heart told him that he couldn't do it!
At that time, he didn't know whether he drank too much or was overwhelmed by anger. He couldn't think clearly. He only knew that he couldn't let her go like that!
Because he hasn't figured it out yet, he hasn't been freed yet, and he can't let her go alone!
Yes, what he did was unreasonable, mean, even bad, and despicable, but he had no choice.
It wasn't until she was absent from work for three days and he couldn't find her that he finally had an epiphany and finally understood why she had to draw a clear line with him. It wasn't because of Zhuoxi, it wasn't that simple.
Although Zhuo Xi definitely treats her differently, from a man's perspective, he can see Zhuo Xi's thoughts at a glance, and her relationship with Zhuo Xi does seem to be good, but that is not the most important thing.
Fang Yuan's incident made him understand that what she said when she drove him out of the small attic that morning was serious.
At that time, she said that there was a world of difference between them now, and she was not as brave as he was back then, so she didn't want to compare favorably with him.
Those words sounded really harsh, so he didn't really listen until what happened to Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan made her feel inferior and hurt.
In fact, she still loves him, but now the road of love is too difficult to walk.
How could she become so unsure of herself?
In fact, she is still very good and great!
She has not received any further education or training in these years, and her resume is completely blank. However, when she works now, she is not inferior to others in any way, and is even better and stronger than them, which is enough to impress everyone.
How could she be worse than others?
He was very happy that she could come back to work on her own. Even if she didn't come back, he would catch her because he wanted her to regain her confidence and become the proud and arrogant Mint she used to be.
