Mint felt her body light up, and she was hugged by him. She fell into an emotional fog, and her hands subconsciously climbed onto his shoulders.
He picked her up and walked to the bedroom nearby.
"Ding dong——"
A harsh doorbell suddenly rang, disturbing the two people in the room who were inseparable.
Guan Shouheng didn't stop and obviously had no intention of opening the door. He even kissed her neck as he walked.
"You have guests..." Mint dodged his kiss and reminded him softly.
"It's Qi Yu, don't worry about him."
"How do you know?"
"Other than him, who else has the ability to trick the guard into letting someone in without getting stuck, just with a face and a mouth?" Guan Shouheng said angrily because he was dissatisfied with his desires.
Mint blinked and suddenly thought of Wu You. Like father, like son!
Seeing that she was slightly dazed, Guan Shouheng became even more dissatisfied and said sourly, "Woman, you can only miss me now!"
Mint couldn't help but roll her eyes, "Hurry up and open the door!"
"No need." Anyway, that guy never treats me badly. If no one is around for a while, he will find another place to relax.
"Ding dong——" the doorbell rang again.
"Go quickly!" she urged him.
But he still didn't think so, he lowered his head and pecked the corner of her lips, the flames of emotion dancing in his dark and deep black eyes, so hot that they seemed to be burned to death.
"Maybe he's in a hurry." She reminded him.
Guan Shouheng wanted to say that he had something urgent to do, but he suddenly remembered Qiyu's company's difficulties. It had been a while since the last financial crisis. Could he really not be able to survive it?
He gritted his teeth, feeling that it was not good to forget his true love after all. He slowly stopped walking towards the bedroom, and put her on the chair beside the bar, reluctantly ending this sweet tenderness.
As soon as Mint was put down, he immediately hurriedly tidied up his wrinkled clothes, and finally patted his cheeks gently, trying to cool down his burning cheeks with the warmth of his fingertips.
Guan Shouheng walked to the door with an indignant look on his face and pulled his nightgown tightly. Damn Qiyu, he didn't come here sooner or later. What the hell is he doing here now?
He yanked open the door panel and was about to get angry, but the woman standing outside the door made him stunned.
"Liu Ting?" Guan Shouheng was stunned, why is it her?
"Ah Heng, I made some midnight snacks, let me bring them in for you!" Liu Ting held a small ear pot in her hand, and her virtuous look made people feel very gentle.
But Guan Shouheng felt a little embarrassed. He gently pulled the door panel and declined, saying, "I'm going to sleep soon."
Liu Ting suddenly felt frustrated, "But I cooked it all and even brought it to you..."
"Then I'll just take it in myself, thank you." Guan Shouheng still didn't want her to come in.
Liu Ting felt his alienation and subconsciously glanced into the room. He was too tall and his broad shoulders blocked her sight. But when she lowered her head, she found a pair of white high heels placed at the entrance door.
Is there a woman here?
A hole suddenly opened in Liu Ting's heart. Does Ah Heng have another girlfriend?
Why is she always a step late?
She liked him ten years ago, but he got married before she could confess her love. Ten years later, they met again. She thought it was God giving her a chance, but she didn't expect...
It's already so late, and there's actually a woman at his home? Is their relationship already so close?
When did it happen? How come she didn’t know about it at all?
Who is that woman? What kind of woman is she? Or is she like his ex-wife?
"Ah Heng, it's okay. I'll just help you carry it in. It's very hot and you didn't even wear gloves." Liu Ting made an excuse to go in and take a look.
"You are a girl and you have to be more careful about getting burned, so let me do it." Guan Shouheng wanted to let her leave quickly.
"Then... okay." Liu Ting had no choice but to hand him the small ear pot, but she found another excuse and said, "Ah Heng, I seemed to have accidentally dropped my bracelet when I came to your house last time. Did you see it?
"
"Bracelet?" Guan Shouheng frowned slightly. There shouldn't be one. He didn't see it when he was cleaning.
"Yes, it's just a thin beaded bracelet. It's not valuable, but it was given by a friend." Liu Ting weaved a lie and then put forward her ultimate goal, "Can I go in and look for it?"
"...Of course." Guan Shouheng could not refuse, so he turned sideways and let her enter the room.
In the living room, after Mint quickly tidied herself up, she was wondering whether she should go into the bathroom to hide for a while, or whether she should just stay put and stay put. While she was hesitating, she heard a conversation at the door, a soft female voice.
She raised her eyebrows subconsciously, didn't he say it was Qi Yu?
She moved her steps curiously and looked towards the entrance, just in time to see Liu Ting entering the house sideways.
Women's intuitions are very keen, and the two of them looked at each other at the same time.
After all, they hadn't seen each other for ten years, and they hadn't known each other well before, so they felt like strangers to each other, but soon, they all remembered each other.
Liu Ting's expression was very surprised. If she had just been disappointed when she saw the woman's high heels at the door, but now when she saw Mint, she was deeply disappointed.
The ex-wife is the most terrifying animal in the world, especially when his ex-wife is so beautiful.
As a woman, Liu Ting felt ashamed when she stood in front of Mint as early as ten years ago, and ten years later, that feeling has not changed.
She was still so beautiful and noble. Even though the Shenmei incident had caused such a big fuss, she knew that Mint was no longer the proud daughter of heaven. However, her perfect facial features, perfect figure, and ethereal temperament were still
So dazzling, so eye-catching.
"Liu Ting?" Mint also recognized the person, but she felt unbelievable.
After so many years, she still has contact with Guan Shouheng? It’s so late, and she brings him midnight snacks? And it seems like this isn’t the first time!
"Mint? Long time no see!" Liu Ting concealed her inner surprise and nervousness, deliberately forced out a warm smile, and took the initiative to greet her.
"Yeah, long time no see." Mint's expression was a little stiff. She smelled the aroma of food coming out of the small pot, but she felt unappetized.
"Liu Ting, I'll take the things to the kitchen and pour them out. You can take the pot back." Guan Shouheng wanted to ask her to leave quickly.
"Okay, I'll help you." Liu Ting rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen. She looked familiar, not like a guest at all, but like a hostess.
Mint froze in place, staring slightly.
Guan Shouheng felt something was wrong, "No, I'll do it myself. Aren't you still looking for something?"
"Oh, yes!" Liu Ting suddenly realized. The moment Guan Shouheng turned around, a hint of womanly calculation slipped through her eyes.
Looking for something?
Mint blinked in confusion.
Liu Ting turned around and approached the sofa, pretending to be nervous and said, "I dropped my bracelet here last time, but where did I leave it?"
She squatted down and looked under the coffee table, then at the gaps in the sofa, busy non-stop.
"What a tragedy, that bracelet was a birthday gift from my friend. It's very important, so don't lose it!" Liu Ting muttered to herself, but she wanted to tell someone on purpose.
Hearing this, Mint frowned. It seemed like she came here often! She often dropped her bracelet here!
"Why is it still not there? Could it be that I forgot it in the bathroom?" Liu Ting murmured in frustration again, then turned and walked towards the bathroom.
Mint's face suddenly darkened. Although the bracelet was not something special, it would not be that simple if a woman's jewelry would be left in a man's bathroom!
She knew Liu Ting liked Guan Shouheng ten years ago, but he was already married at that time, but now, standing in this room, she seemed like the third party.
Mint grabbed the bag on the sofa and walked quickly towards the door.
"Mint..." Guan Shouheng happened to walk out of the kitchen. Seeing her looking like she was about to leave, he couldn't help but ask, "Where are you going?"
"It's getting late, I'll go back first." Her expression was very calm, and so was her tone.
Guan Shouheng frowned subconsciously, "It's so late..."
"Yes, it's very late!" She deliberately emphasized her tone, emphasizing the importance of time, and warned herself that it was already so late, and that woman came to give him a midnight snack, so what bracelet was she looking for!
She was like an idiot, standing there and watching stupidly!
"Goodbye!" She quickly put on her shoes, opened the door, and left quickly.
Guan Shouheng chased him from the kitchen, but it was too late. He watched the door slam shut in front of his eyes and couldn't help but feel annoyed.
She must have misunderstood him and Liu Ting!
But it was really a misunderstanding, and he died unjustly!
He walked back to his room and wanted to change his clothes and go downstairs to catch her, but when he saw Liu Ting wandering there, he couldn't help but frown.
"Ah Heng, I brought you the bowls and chopsticks. You need to eat your late night snack while it's hot. Come here quickly."
Guan Shouheng frowned even more. He knew that Liu Ting was very virtuous and good at cooking, but he was in no mood to enjoy her delicious food.
"Liu Ting, have you found your bracelet?"
"Not yet..." She replied in a low voice, just because she felt guilty. In fact, her bracelet was not lost at all. Everything was just her excuse. She just came in to see who the woman in his room was.
And she was glad that she came in. Wouldn't his ex-wife be gone now?
She didn't understand, how could that woman who didn't know how to cherish him still have the nerve to show up at his home after hurting him so badly?
Does she want to get back together with her ex-husband? Because he now has status and money?
Why would he accept a woman like that? She despised him when he was poor and didn't take him seriously. Now that she is down and out, she comes to him again?
She doesn't understand, and doesn't want to understand, because she doesn't want them to get back together, she wants him to find a better woman.
Although she also knows that she is not good enough to deserve him, at least she is sincere to him. She will regard everything about him as her center. She will be very good to him and will never be like him.
His ex-wife hurt him like that.
"It's getting late. You should go back first. I'll keep an eye on the bracelet for you. If I find it, I'll call you." Guan Shouheng was about to see off the guests.
"Oh, that's fine." Liu Ting twitched the corner of her mouth, but as if she was worried, she warned, "Ah Heng, you have to eat your midnight snack quickly, it won't be good if it gets cold."
"I don't have the habit of eating late night snacks, so you don't have to worry about it in the future." Guan Shouheng said politely, but his tone was obviously distant.
The atmosphere was obviously a bit tense. Liu Ting glanced at him uneasily and did not dare to say anything else. She only said softly, "Then I'll go back first. Goodbye."
"Goodbye." Guan Shouheng walked her to the door, and then firmly unlocked the door.
Damn it, what was supposed to be a wonderful night was ruined like this!
What's worse is that Mint's attitude has finally softened, and now he may be alienated from him again!
He was so depressed that he banged the door hard.
I quickly returned to my room, changed my clothes and prepared to go out. When I was about to put on my belt, my cell phone on the coffee table in the living room suddenly rang.
He hurried over. Although he knew it was unlikely to be her, he was still looking forward to it. But when he saw the caller ID, his heart sank again.
"Guan Shouheng..." He answered in a deep voice.
"Mr. Guan, the Geneva delegation has arrived..." the assistant reported.
Guan Shouheng clenched his phone so hard that he almost wanted to smash it, but he couldn't. He could only grit his teeth and said, "I understand. You take people to the airport first. I'll be there soon!"
"Yes." The assistant hung up hastily.
Guan Shouheng took a deep breath, took off the casual clothes he had just put on, quickly changed into a business suit, and went out anxiously.
As he went downstairs, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Mint's number over and over again, trying to explain Liu Ting's affairs to her, but the voice from the phone kept coming from a robotic female voice, "I'm sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable."
Pass……"
***
Until the next morning, Mint's mood still hadn't recovered.
She had been in a very depressed mood since she came out of Guan Shouheng's house last night. She had insomnia all night after returning home and kept her eyes open until dawn.
However, after tossing and turning, her mood gradually calmed down, and she even thought that maybe Liu Ting was right to appear. If she hadn't pressed the doorbell in time, she and Guan Shouheng would have gotten out of hand again last night.
Her resistance to him was really too low, and she almost made the same mistake as last time.
How can they have that kind of relationship now? They have already been divorced!
Fang Yuan is not suitable for him, but Liu Ting may not be suitable. To be honest, a girl like Liu Ting is gentle and virtuous. Although her background is a bit ordinary, she will definitely be a good wife and mother in the future, and can provide him with
A warm home.
So, how could she get lost in his arms?
Also, has she forgotten those painful realities?
Even if she wants to forget, someone will always remind her!
"Ring, ring, ring—" The ringing of her cell phone interrupted her thoughts.
"Hey, are you Miss Mint? I am the director of Morning Star Kindergarten. I want to inform you that you can take the time to come over and settle your wages these days..."
Mint bit her lip subconsciously. In fact, the day after the police went to the kindergarten to investigate the situation, the principal called her and told her not to go to class for the time being. He said that he would decide whether to continue to employ her after a meeting of all employees to discuss the matter.
Well, she can understand. Which kindergarten would be willing to hire a teacher who is under police investigation? Even if she is just suspected, the children in the kindergarten are the flowers of the motherland. The principal, teachers, and parents are not
Don't dare to take anything lightly.
Forget it, just fire her, and she can just find a new part-time job!
But the organizing committee doesn’t know when they can let her go back to work?
Just as I was thinking about it, my phone rang again, and this time it was finally good news, "Mint, this is Team Leader Li, you can come back to work starting today!"
Mint's eyes lit up, great, the police finally cleared her!
This time it’s all thanks to Guan Shouheng...
The person who had tortured her thoughts all night came to mind again, and she shook her head quickly.
"Okay, Team Leader Li, I'll be there right away!" She hung up the phone and immediately packed her things and went out.
At this point, perhaps only the intense and busy work can stop her from thinking wildly.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Mint stepped into the French team's office on time.
Nothing has changed, but everything has changed again.
There were not many people in the French group originally, but now that Fang Yuan and Qiao Nawei are missing, the manpower is even less available.
Team Leader Li was one of the top two, and the people below him were all on their feet.
During the regular morning meeting, Team Leader Li's calls came one after another, "Okay, I understand...Okay, I will make arrangements...definitely, okay, let's do this first, bye."
After Team Leader Li put down the phone, he tapped his hand to attract everyone's attention and said seriously, "Attention everyone, I just got news that the organizing committee has determined that at the opening ceremony of this expo, the theme song will be played by Chinese and French stars
For the chorus, the Chinese side will be Miss Jin Xue, the new winner of the Chinese Golden Melody Award, and the French side will be Mr. Henry, the super-popular French king!"
"Henry? Oh my God, Henry!" The staff were gearing up, their excitement palpable.
Mint, on the other hand, looked shocked. It couldn't be that Henry, could it?
"Mint, you seem to have had experience as a translator for a film crew before, right? Then I'll send you there this time!"
