At the beginning of the new year, the flash marriage of Zhu Zirui and Li Qianwei became a bombshell, blowing the hearts of the unmarried girls in Shengshi Group to pieces.
At the dinner party in the evening, the single young women who had fallen in love with Zhu Zirui all remained silent, with surprise, confusion, disapproval, envy, jealousy, and hatred all written on their faces.
Li Qianwei is what they call the "Monkey King", an old maid who has never been in love and cannot get married. In their eyes, she is the best boss who uses her employees as an outlet for her lack of male nourishment.
Every time they were scolded by Li Qianwei, they would use the excuse "At least I have someone to chase me, but you don't" to comfort themselves behind the scenes.
And Zhu Zirui is their idol. He is meticulous at work and upright in life. He has climbed to a high-level position at a young age. He can be said to be young, rich and handsome. There are countless people in the company who have a crush on him.
There were many who took action, but he refused them all. But because of this, those who loved him loved him even more.
I didn't expect, I didn't expect, that this Monkey King would embrace his male god. From now on he would no longer be Monkey King, but a winner in life who was proud of his career and marriage.
Zhu Zirui was coaxed into drinking a lot of wine, and everyone, male or female, wanted to join in the fun and come forward to offer a toast. Zhu Zirui couldn't refuse.
Li Qianwei said she wanted to drive, so she refused all toasts. No one dared to force her, after all, the relationship between superior and subordinate was still there.
Several female colleagues drank too much and silently wiped away tears.
Li Qianwei pushed Qiao Xinwei with her elbow, pointed with her eyes, and said: "Look at Xiao Guo, he usually speaks softly in front of Zhu Zirui. You can tell what he is thinking at a glance. He is fine now, and he is crying.
.”
Qiao Xinwei took a look and saw that it was not the case. The little girl had tears in her eyes and was looking at Zhu Zirui lovingly. This look was not shy at all. Qiao Xinwei reminded softly, "It seems that I will have you in the future."
I’m tired, I have to be on guard all the time.”
"No, the more I think about it, the more annoyed I am. From now on, not only do I have to do a good job, but I also have to take care of my husband. It's all the same."
"Haha, do you regret it?"
Li Qianwei smiled and said, "I have no regrets. It turns out that I am not in unrequited love. He has also liked me for many years. I only hate myself for not taking the initiative earlier. I hate myself to death."
Qiao Xinwei: "Looking at your potential, why don't you hate him for not taking the initiative earlier?"
Li Qianwei: "No, he said he had a plan. At this point, as long as I am single, he will take the initiative regardless of whether I take the initiative or not. And even if I take the initiative, it is just to fall in love in advance, and marriage still has to be now.
"
Qiao Xinwei teased her, "Oh, it turns out I'm showing off my affection, hahaha. Well, let me tell you, my husband and I also had a flash marriage. We met three times and got the certificate."
Li Qianwei's gossip heart was aroused, "Is it true? Tell me when. Your husband is still my husband's savior. I will definitely treat him to dinner."
"Okay, there are plenty of opportunities." Just as she was talking, her cell phone rang. When she looked at the screen, her originally happy heart suddenly sank. It was Arnold calling.
"What's wrong? Your husband is looking for you?"
Qiao Xinwei smiled dryly, picked up the phone, stood up and said, "Sorry, I'm going out to take a call."
It was Li Qianwei who made fun of her, "Your husband is quite strict. He only came out for a while."
Qiao Xinwei walked out of the box, walked to a quieter corner, and answered the phone, "Hello?"
"Xinwei, are you busy?" Arnold's voice was very flat, without the warmth of the past, and sounded unfamiliar.
"I'm having dinner with my colleagues outside, what do you want?"
"Me??" Arnold was silent for a while, as if it was difficult to speak.
Qiao Xinwei took a deep breath and said, "Arnold, if you want to say something related to Jiang Hao, I don't think I have time to listen. Jiang Hao and I have been in love for so many years, and it's not easy for you to sow discord.
"
"Xinwei, I??" Arnold choked softly, "I just want to say, I'm sorry?? I have to leave and leave the capital."
Qiao Xinwei was stunned for a moment, but now she fell silent.
"I said I'm sorry because I apologized for what I said to you last time. But falling in love with Jiang Hao is beyond my control. I can't control my feelings. If you love, you will love. Yes, that's right.
I confessed my love to Jiang Hao. You were already divorced at that time, so I wasn’t considered a third party, right? I was single at that time and he was divorced. I fell in love with him and pursued him. There was nothing wrong with that, right? "
Qiao Xinwei couldn't refute it, Arnold was indeed right.
"Xinwei, Jiang Hao really loves you. Even though he has hurt you before, his love for you has never changed. I have to leave. The cafe is closed and can't be opened anymore. In this case, I might as well leave.
.”
Qiao Xinwei explained: "Arnold, I didn't say anything to Jiang Hao, and Jiang Hao didn't do anything. The shop is really useful to others, so I want to take it back."
Arnold smiled twice and said, "It doesn't matter anymore, it doesn't matter anymore, it doesn't matter what happens. I'm leaving. It's good for you and me. Xinwei, you are my best friend. You were before, you are now, and you will be in the future."
Yes, I will bless you forever."
Qiao Xinwei felt heartbroken and indescribably sad after hearing this. She felt that Arnold still had resentment, but the despair was far greater than this resentment. Maybe for her, leaving was really the best choice.
"When are you leaving?"
"Let's finish the formalities. It shouldn't take long."
"Where to go?"
Arnold didn't answer but smiled, "I guess there's no need for us to meet, right?"
Qiao Xinwei was so sad that she could not speak. This feeling was the same as when she saw Sun Rongxuan died in a car accident.
"I didn't tell Xiaozhi about this, Xinwei, please help me keep this secret, please. This is my...last dignity."
She thought that Arnold must also know that it was her fault, but she was such a proud person and would never bow her head in humility. If she wanted to apologize, she would also use her pride and dignity to apologize.
She nodded across the phone, "Okay, I won't tell Xiaozhi, so... I wish you a safe journey."
"Thanks."
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Xinwei couldn't calm down for a long time. She didn't want to cry, but her heart felt uncomfortable. She stood at the window, opened half the window, and kept blowing the cold wind.
Until Li Qianwei came out to find her.
"Hey, what are you doing here? I thought you slipped away if you didn't come in for so long." Li Qianwei saw her heavy expression and said with concern, "What's wrong with this expression? Your husband's phone number?"
Qiao Xinwei shook her head.
"Whose phone is that? What's wrong?"
"A friend of mine," she smiled bitterly. Now she could only use 'a friend' to describe Arnold. "She is leaving the capital to go somewhere else. We may never meet again in the future."
Li Qianwei nodded calmly, "Oh, what next?"
"Then? No more." Qiao Xinwei pursed her lips and said, "She fell in love with my husband, but my husband rejected her."
Li Qianwei nodded in realization. She put her hand on her shoulder and comforted: "Isn't this good? You know, it's not uncommon for best friends to be with their husbands. She talks about true love better than those who robbed their friends' husbands.
An invincible best friend is much more conscientious. In fact, you should be lucky to have a sensible friend and a husband who loves you."
No matter how old you are, women will always know more when they reach a certain age. Not everything they have experienced, what they hear and see can be turned into their own experiences.
"So, you don't need to be like this. You can find friends at any time. Aren't we also friends? If we talk more, take care of each other, and talk to each other, we will become best friends. And we are both married, so there is no need.
Are you worried about stealing the other person’s husband?”
Qiao Xinwei couldn't help but smile. She got to know Li Qianwei again. That serious, cold-faced and ruthless boss turned out to have such a heart-warming side. As expected, people need to get to know and understand each other.
"That's right, just laugh."
"Thank you, I'm much better."
"You're welcome. I'm happy to be married. Let's go in."
The dinner party was lively, but I had to go to work tomorrow, so I didn’t make it very late and ended early. A group of people walked out of the hotel. Several people were drunk. Zhu Zirui was also drunk, and he was helped away.
Li Qianwei, on one side was Shen Yanqing, and Shen Yanqing was also drunk.
In the sofa area of the lobby, Jiang Hao put down his cell phone and stood up.
That is the brightest place in the entire hall. There is a crystal chandelier above, and countless crystal lamps are falling, and all the light is focused below.
Jiang Hao was wearing a simple gray sweater, black casual pants, and a pair of leather Martin boots. He had simple clothes, a clean temperament, a slender figure, and a handsome face that could not be ignored.
"Wow, who is that? So handsome."
With everyone's sideways glances, Jiang Hao raised his hand and waved to them, with a slight smile on his lips and love in his eyes, "Xinwei, this way."
Qiao Xinwei trotted over, "Hey, why are you here?" She patted his arm and said, "You are wearing so little, aren't you cold?"
"The heating in the hall is quite strong, I still feel hot."
"It's cold when you go out. How did you get here? You didn't come by car, right? You can't drive yet!"
"The driver and the car are outside, I'll wait for you inside."
"Where's Xi Bao?"
"I said hello to my aunt at home, so I'm still at our house. Let's go back later and ask the driver to take her back."
"Haha, you are so thoughtful."
The crowd at the back were all dumbfounded, especially the women. This kind of blow, please don’t do it all in one day, can you let the singles live?!
Zhu Zirui saw Jiang Hao and said, "Brother Hao, hahahaha, comrades, this is my savior, my eldest brother, Jiang Hao." He was tongue-tied even as he spoke.
Jiang Hao waved to everyone and said hello, and then said: "Hello everyone, please go back early. Don't you have to go to work tomorrow? Then I will take her home first. Goodbye."
