When Ji Yang came in with the contract, he found the man sitting in the executive chair. There was a bit of warmth in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, and his thin lips were slightly hooked. He lacked the usual cold and distant feeling, together with his delicate
His facial features seemed to be a lot softer.
Ji Yang is a good person, and he knows very well why Mr. Gu in front of him looks so proud.
Naturally, he knew everything about what happened in Miss Shen's office just now. He was still guarding the elevator door personally, just because he was afraid that someone from the company would suddenly come up. If something really happened, he would be the first person to worry about.
Mr. Gu.
But later, Mr. Gu chased Miss Shen, and he came back about minutes later. Looking at him at this moment, Ji Yang raised his eyebrows, thinking - Miss Shen's contribution is not small.
"Mr. Gu, this is the last contract for the project we cooperated with Master Su before. We have already signed it a few minutes ago. As for this one, there is no problem with Master Su. We have signed it here.
That’s it.”
Ji Yang handed the contract to Gu Yanshen. The man's long, sharp fingers gently opened the folder. He only glanced at it twice before picking up the expensive pen beside him and signing his name with a flourish.
He threw the contract directly to Ji Yang, and gently stroked his sexy chin with his index finger, "Didn't Jun Yan just come back from a business trip? After the delay of the last dinner, there has been no contact. After the contract was finalized,
This project is almost waiting for the last process. You can make an appointment with a few principals in the project tonight and ask me to be the host."
Ji Yang nodded: "I understand, Mr. Gu."
He paused and then said: "...Mr. Gu, Situ Lin came back yesterday. I don't know if my wife talked to Situ Lin's wife about you, Mr. Gu, so Situ Lin specially called me to say that I had
If I have time, I’d like to meet you for dinner, Mr. Gu.”
Situ Lin is Situ Yan's father and an influential figure in the police circles of City C. Before Gu Yanshen returned to City C, the two of them didn't meet much. Situ Lin probably went there every month to see who was studying there.
Situ Yan usually meets him only under such circumstances.
However, Gu Yanshen has always respected Situ Lin, and Situ Lin is also very optimistic about this junior.
"Tomorrow, I will contact him personally."
Just as Ji Yang was about to leave, Gu Yanshen suddenly stopped him again, "Is Mu Chenchu at work?"
Ji Yang was stunned for a moment, then realized, "It seems that he asked for leave and said he would not come until tomorrow."
"You contact her. If she has arrived in City C today, tell her that there is a dinner party tonight and she cannot be absent."
The moment Ji Yang heard this, he smiled secretly in his heart, thinking that Mr. Gu was very loyal to Young Master Su. He tasted the sweetness himself, and it seemed that he did not forget to give it to his good friend.
He was very sensible, "Yes, Mr. Gu, I will contact Miss Mu."
※※※※※
Zijin has been sitting in the office for almost half an hour, but the blush on her face has not gone away. The words she just said at the back stairway are still echoing in her ears, and they come to her heart over and over again.
She replied so many times, but every time, it was still enough to make her blush and her heart beat.
——I like you, Gu Yanshen, I like you.
——Well, I heard it. Your way of comforting me is very helpful to me... And I want to tell you——Baby, I like you too.
…………
I like you, I like you too...
…………
These few words were repeated over and over in her mind, the man's deep and rich voice, and the shy tone of the woman who was about to talk to her, overlapped in her ears, and constantly impacted her.
Zijin couldn't help but reached out and held his head. He was crazy, crazy, must be crazy. She just... how could she have the courage to say such things to him just now?
Remembering that when she finally broke free from his "clutches", he once again pushed her against the wall, with the man's hard body pressed tightly against her soft body, and his thin lips pressed against hers. Hers was caressing her back and forth, and his deep voice was filled with obvious lust. "After get off work, don't leave in a hurry. Wait for me to come find you, okay?"
In fact, he didn't say anything too extreme, but for some reason, Zijin's heart was trembling all the time. You could clearly hear the hints in his words, and then his heart beat violently, and his breathing was hot and rapid.
, there is just no way to calm down.
She bit her lip, stamped her feet, pushed Gu Yanshen away, and ran away.
Even she herself didn't know why she was running away. This emotion could probably be called - shy?
It turns out that she also has shy moments, that kind of shy state that only women in love can have. It turns out that this is how she feels and looks like?
…………
Zijin reached out to hold her chin, raised her neck slightly, subconsciously raised her cheeks, and there was still a bit of blush on her face, making her look charming, with a bit of shyness and cuteness that belongs exclusively to a little woman.
.
Do you have to wait for him after get off work?
What are you waiting for him to do? Go back to Qiao's house together? Or just like an ordinary couple, eating, watching movies, or...
There was a buzzing sound in the back of the head, as if it was suddenly hit by something hard -
Ordinary lovers, these four words made her wake up instantly.
Yes, ordinary lovers, what about them? Are they considered lovers? They... are not even ordinary lovers. She has never tasted what it is like to be in love, but she knows that when a man and a woman are in love, they can hold hands and go shopping.
, they will eat together, watch movies together, and do some of the simplest and most romantic things for each other, but will they?
It is simply impossible for Gu Yanshen and her to do such a thing.
in love?
How can their relationship be called love?
When they go back to Qiao's house together, their relationship will be brought back to its original shape in an instant. When they go out together, they are not qualified to hold hands to eat and watch movies like ordinary couples...
Those, for ordinary people, the simplest things have become so difficult for them, even harder than climbing to the sky...
Zijin slowly put down the hand holding his chin, and the blush on his face gradually disappeared. What was left in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows was filled with disappointment.
"I like you" is too easy, too simple. But the feelings and expectations contained in it are only understood by you. It is so simple to say it, just move your lips, but what happens after you say it?
?
…………
There is a feeling of falling from heaven to earth, but fortunately, I have not completely fallen into hell.
Zijin took a deep breath, shook her head, and secretly told herself that she couldn't think about this now. Since she had already decided, she wanted to be brave for him, and she took the first step bravely.
Now think about what to do with that?
Negative emotions will only bring more negative energy to yourself.
No matter how difficult the road ahead was, she thought, she should at least walk it without any regrets.
Now, the most important thing is to divorce Qiao Jinglian first. I originally planned to talk to Qiao Shiyun today about the fifth wedding anniversary, including her moving out of Qiao's house, but she was completely shaken by his words.
It was a mess. Zi Jin thought that he must go back to Qiao's house in the evening and talk to Qiao Shiyun about these two things.
She looked at her watch and saw that there wasn't much time until she got off work, so she simply packed up and prepared to leave the company with Gu Yanshen quickly. Otherwise, if he saw her soon, he would definitely catch her and refuse to let her leave first.
She felt that she had to go back and speak clearly to Qiao Shiyun first. It would not be good for anyone to delay this kind of thing for a day.
As soon as he entered the elevator, there was a call on his cell phone. Zijin took it out and saw that it was Gu Yanshen's number. Her face flashed with a strange emotion, but there was a sweet taste in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.
There was no one else in the elevator, so she only hesitated for a moment before answering the phone.
"Where have you been? Why aren't you in the office?"
Gu Yanshen's deep voice reached his ears through the radio waves, rich and powerful.
Zijin subconsciously pressed her phone against her cochlea, as if to hear his breathing more clearly. Her voice was very light, as soft as water, "...I have something to do, so I got off work early.
"
"Didn't I ask you to wait for me to get off work together? What's the matter?"
Zijin bit his lip, "...I really have something important, and it's not convenient to tell you."
"…………"
Just as the elevator reached the first floor, the double doors slowly opened, and Zijin said again: "Well, I won't tell you anymore." He hung up the phone without waiting for Gu Yanshen to say anything else.
She put away her phone and raised her feet. As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw Qiao Jinglian walking from the opposite side.
Zijin's breath was suffocated, and his first reaction was to turn around and leave, but Qiao Jinglian had already seen her and quickened his pace towards her.
Zijin's hand happened to touch the handle of the elastic door of the back staircase, and his other wrist was grabbed by Qiao Jinglian. He pulled her towards him with force, frowned, and said in a deep voice with a hint of displeasure, "What are you doing?
I’m about to leave? I’ve been looking for you for a long time, where have you been?”
Zi Jin twisted his wrist and said, "...What are you looking for me for? Qiao Jinglian, let go first, everyone in the company is watching -"
This is the first floor of the company, with people coming and going. What happened in the elevator earlier reached Gu Yanshen's ears, and now Qiao Jinglian is teasing her again... Zijin doesn't like this from the bottom of his heart.
What she didn't realize at all was that Qiao Jinglian was actually her husband, but she was avoiding her husband's touch. All she thought about was Gu Yanshen's feelings.
Qiao Jinglian's face was grave. Without letting go of her, he pulled her and entered the elevator again. He directly pressed the button on floor B2, which was the company's parking lot. "It's okay if you're afraid that someone from the company will see it. I'll take you somewhere else."
, let’s make it clear today.”
Zijin, "…………"
Just make it clear, let's make it clear, Zi Jin frowned and thought, some things must be made clear sooner or later. Since Qiao Jinglian is so determined now and has to make it clear to herself, she cannot resist blindly. After all, marriage
It's a matter between him and her. If she can convince him now, then there will probably be less resistance on Qiao Shiyun's side.
In fact, what Zijin was thinking privately was that she still hoped that Qiao Jinglian would take the initiative to discuss the divorce with Qiao Shiyun. Even if she couldn't explain the divorce now, she didn't want to do it on the fifth wedding anniversary.
"Okay, let's talk, but let me go first and I will go with you." Zijin said calmly.
Qiao Jinglian glanced at her, and after a moment, she let go of her hand.
When he arrived at the parking lot, he found his car, let Zijin sit in the passenger seat, drove the car himself, and left the company.
Along the way, neither of them spoke. Halfway through, Qiao Jinglian's cell phone rang. Zijin saw him take out his cell phone, glance at it, and quickly press it down. She didn't see whose caller ID it was, anyway, she
Not interested in knowing either.
But after Qiao Jinglian pressed it down, the phone rang again. Zi Jin glanced at him. Qiao Jinglian's profile was a little tense. This time he didn't press it down directly. He let the phone keep ringing, and finally stopped automatically.
There was another call over there.
Qiao Jinglian frowned, with impatience on his face, but he still answered the call.
In fact, the carriage was only that big, and Zijin was sitting next to him. He couldn't clearly hear what the person on the other end said, but he could still tell that it was a woman's voice, and that Zijin was somewhat familiar with it.
female voice.
Zijin turned his face towards the car window. There was no need to guess, it must be Xie Lingxi's call.
It's not that she minded, what happened to them had nothing to do with her anyway. They were inseparable, so that was even better. It would be convenient for her to ask for a divorce.
"...I have some important things to deal with now. You can have dinner alone...Well, I will contact you when it's over. What's wrong with you?...Then you go to the hospital...I can't leave now, I
I'll contact the driver for you and stop driving yourself... Don't make trouble first, I have important things here..."
Zijin listened to Qiao Jinglian's words with difficulty, and probably understood that Xie Lingxi was probably feeling uncomfortable, and she wanted to let Qiao Jinglian go over, but obviously Qiao Jinglian didn't intend to go over now.
She sighed softly, finally turned her face, reached out and gently pulled Qiao Jinglian's sleeve, and said to him silently, "If you have something to do, you can leave first, I'm not in a hurry."
Qiao Jinglian frowned and looked at her. When she moved her lips, she also made a gesture. The general meaning, he understood, was to let him go.
It was impossible for her not to know who made the call, but she was so generous and considerate, letting her husband take care of the woman outside...
Qiao Jinglian didn't know how to describe her mood at the moment. She was unbearably depressed. It turned out that she was really so dispensable to herself...
Xie Lingxi was still crying on the other end of the phone, complaining that her stomach was uncomfortable. Qiao Jinglian thought about what she had said to herself before, but she still couldn't bear it. She turned the steering wheel with one hand, stepped on the brake, and stopped.
The car stopped on the side of the road. He stared at Zijin for a moment, but he said to Xie Lingxi on the other end of the phone, "...Stop crying, just wait, I will be there soon."
He hung up the phone, pressed the central lock of the car door, and smiled coldly at Zijin, "My wife is really generous, do you really want me to take care of other women? Well, get out of the car!"
"
"…………"
Zijin didn't even know what he was getting angry about for no reason. Is she generous? She was indeed quite generous, but wasn't generosity what he needed?
"When we have time later, let's make an appointment again. Qiao Jinglian, I also have something important to tell you, but I want to tell you now. On the fifth wedding anniversary, I will tell my father in person. This is really
There is no need to do it, there are other things, we will talk about it when you have time."
After she finished speaking, she held the car door and pushed it open. Just as she was about to get out of the car, Qiao Jinglian suddenly stretched out her hand and grabbed her wrist. Her handsome face was filled with gloom. He asked word by word: "Shen Zijin
, do you really not care at all?"
"...What do you care about?" Zijin frowned.
"I, Qiao Jinglian, your husband, do you really not care at all? You don't need to hold any wedding anniversary, and you don't care if I have a woman outside, let alone this marriage, right?"
Zijin lowered her eyes, and she felt her wrists being pinched by him. She did not struggle, and suppressed the desire to sigh. After a moment, she said extremely calmly: "Qiao Jinglian, you feel now, you
Is he my husband? In the five years of marriage, you have never regarded me as your wife. You don’t have to have many things if you want them, and you don’t have to have them if you don’t want them. I know that it was indeed my existence that destroyed me back then.
Now I just want to make up for your happiness. If I get divorced, I will leave the house clean and give you everything I have that is powerful for you. I hope you can really - think about it carefully.
, It’s not good for anyone to pull each other off like this, and I don’t have the energy to deal with you like this.”
She stretched out her hand and pulled away the hand that held her wrist. He held it a little tight, so she pulled harder. Qiao Jinglian's gloomy eyes stared straight at her, looking at the determination in her eyes,
The expression on his face was calm and relaxed, and he did not say the word "divorce", but he clearly wanted to put an end to all relations with himself.
The softest part of his heart felt like it had been hit by some sharp weapon. A dull pain came over him, making him a little overwhelmed.
He is also a proud man. He has never tried to think about a woman or his wife like this. It is obvious that he has someone at his fingertips. Why is it so difficult now?
What was so good about her? What attracted me to her? Why was it that when I realized it, I was already so obsessed with it?
He couldn't understand, but these days, all his energy was focused on her. He wished he could see her all the time. He wished he could tell her all the feelings in his heart, and then imagined that she would be surprised and would
If you are happy, you will also look happy.
…………
who is he?
He is Qiao Jinglian, the object of many women in City C, and who is she? She is just Shen Zijin. She is his wife. She has been neglected by him for more than five years, and suddenly she has gained the favor of her husband. Shouldn't she be happy?
What?
But the reality is that even if he said it, she seemed to have an ungrateful look on her face.
Qiao Jinglian tasted frustration for the first time in her life, and a voice jumped out from deep in her heart, shouting at him loudly - You are Qiao Jinglian, what kind of woman do you want? She has the right to look down on you.
Do you have to use your hot face to touch her cold ass?
Qiao Jinglian's thin lips pursed slightly, and Zi Jin finally pushed Qiao Jinglian's hand away. He frowned, and his lips squirmed. Just when he was about to say something, Zi Jin opened the car door and got out of the car without looking back.
"…………"
Qiao Jinglian was so angry that she threw her mobile phone on the dashboard. She was disappointed, sad, unwilling... Too many emotions impacted his reason, but he still maintained a sense of pride. He looked sharp and looked back.
Through the mirror, I could just see the woman hailing a taxi on the side of the road, getting in, and soon the taxi drove directly in front of me...
Qiao Jinglian put down the handbrake, changed direction, and stepped on the accelerator. His car and the taxi went in opposite directions.
※※※※※
b city, prison.
The weather has been good these days. The prisoners living here have a break every day. They sit together in twos and threes and occasionally communicate. However, there are many prison guards standing around, so most of them
There is a numb expression on his face, and he doesn't have too many emotions. Naturally, he doesn't dare to have any.
If people here break the rules, the punishment will be very uncomfortable.
Some of the prison guards here are notoriously perverted, and they use a variety of methods to torture people. Some people who have suffered a lot will never dare to mess with them again.
…………
The two women were still squatting together, and the striped prison uniforms they wore had changed color. The weather had gotten warmer recently, so they didn't feel too cold.
The woman on the left moved closer to the woman on the right. She looked at her like she had been doing for ten years. She was holding a branch and drawing talismans on the ground every day. She didn't know what she was writing. She coughed lightly and looked around.
Looking around, they found that the prison guard who was in charge of their area had just walked away.
She quickly reached out and bumped into the woman next to her, "...Hey, don't you think about what I told you last time? I think you are so pitiful. Everyone knows that getting out of here is harder than reaching the sky.
We are all women. I really don’t want you to be so pitiful and locked up here all your life. Do you have any relatives?"
"…………"
"...I know, you are definitely not really mute. You don't want to talk because you don't want trouble to come out of your mouth, right?...It doesn't matter if you don't believe me, but I really want to go out. Over the years, every day when I go out for fun, I
I was squatting with you all the time, you didn't notice me, but I always paid attention to you."
"…………"
"...Ahem, well, I mean, if you only have relatives outside, or people you want to see, you can tell me and I will bring you a message. That's okay."
"…………"
The branch in the woman's hand suddenly stopped. She had lowered her eyes all the time. Her long hair covered most of her face. No one could see the expression on her face clearly, and her pause lasted only a second.
, and soon returned to normal.
Still making no sound, the prison guards came over quickly. When the time was almost up, they began to summon them again and asked them to go back to their prisons.
The woman on the left said so much, but the woman on the right didn't see any reaction. She sighed, shook her head, and muttered: "...Oh, your kindness is not rewarded, so do whatever you want." She turned around and walked into the prison.
.
…………
※※※※※
Zijin returned to Qiao's house, but Qiao Shiyun was not there, but Li Muhua and Qiao Jingting were at home.
It seemed that Qiao Jingting got off work earlier than she did.
Although she didn't like Li Muhua and Qiao Jingting, in the Qiao family, Zijin had always had the mentality that doing more was better than doing less, so when she saw the two of them in the living room, she still greeted them appropriately.
"Mom, Jingting, you are at home."
Li Muhua put the water cup in his hand on the coffee table with a snap, and looked at Zijin with a sneer, "You hope we're not at home, right? This Qiao family belongs to you."
Zijin, "…………"
Too lazy to be familiar with her, she had heard this kind of cynicism all the time. She sighed softly, "Mom, I didn't mean that."
"You don't know what you mean, don't you? Forget it, don't be false to me. The old man is not at home today. It's just Tingting, Shen Zijin and I. Let's make things clear. Come over here.
"
Li Muhua asked her to go over, but Zijin had to go over and stood in front of Li Muhua, "Mom, what do you want to tell me?"
"Tell me about you and Jinglian." Li Muhua raised his eyebrows and pointed to the sofa opposite, "Sit down."
"Mom, I'm a little tired. If you have anything to say, just say it directly. After you finish speaking, I want to go up and rest."
Li Muhua nodded, "I don't like beating around the bush. Since you are so sensible, I will tell you directly. I know you want to divorce Jinglian. I am the first to agree to divorce this marriage. I also know that you have
There are a lot of good things, if you take those things out and get married, I will help you divorce."
Zijin, "…………"
What is Li Muhua planning?
Zijin is not an idiot, not to mention that she saw with her own eyes that she had another man outside. Also, she had gone to her father's hospital before, sneaking around without knowing what she wanted to do. Now she is doing it again and again.
, you have mentioned the divorce to yourself again and again, and now you are directly asking yourself to give her "good things"?
The "good things" she was referring to were probably Qiao's shares and the land in her hands, right?
Li Muhua's wishful thinking is really good. Whether she and Qiao Jinglian divorce or not, will it be her turn to interfere?
Although Zijin wholeheartedly hopes to divorce Qiao Jinglian, she will not do stupid things to achieve her goal. The marriage is originally between her and Qiao Jinglian. Li Muhua, a woman, has never given herself a good look. Of course, she will definitely
I believe she wishes she could divorce Qiao Jinglian.
But Qiao's shares...and the land in City B, she wouldn't be so stupid as to give these things to her directly.
"Mom, I still need to discuss this matter with my father. Thank you for your kindness, but I haven't made a complete decision yet, and Jinglian's side..."
"You haven't decided yet?"
Li Muhua looked at Zijin in disbelief, stood up suddenly, and thought about Zijin's words, "You mean, you don't plan to divorce?"
Zijin raised his neck in a neither humble nor arrogant manner and said calmly: "The divorce is between me and Jinglian. I know you don't like me, mom, but the marriage is still between me and Jinglian. I want to make it clear to Jinglian that this matter
Thank you for your concern, I will solve it myself."
Li Muhua, "…………"
Qiao Jingting was sitting aside and stood up after hearing this. Naturally, she helped her mother, pointing at Zijin and scolding him, "Shen Zijin, you are such a ungrateful person. Don't talk about divorce like this."
, in fact, don’t you want to tie up my brother and play hard-to-get tricks as a means of divorce? Get out of Qiao’s house as soon as possible!”
Zijin, "…………"
She glanced at Qiao Jingting expressionlessly, showing no emotion at all. She just politely said to Li Muhua: "I'm going up first." She ignored Qiao Jingting's shouting and went upstairs.
…………
The two mother and daughter stood in the living room, feeling a burst of anger. They probably felt that the fist they had brought down with all their strength hit the soft cotton, making them feel even more suffocated.
*****
Zijin went upstairs, stretched out her hand and pressed her sore temples. She went directly into her room. She didn't plan to leave Qiao's house today. Anyway, Qiao Jinglian wasn't coming back. She wanted to wait for Qiao Shijun to come back and tell him about the fifth anniversary.
Calculating the time, it was coming soon. She was worried that Qiao Shiyun had already made preparations. She didn't want to waste other people's energy, so she had to tell her as soon as possible.
After getting a set of clothes from the cloakroom, she walked into the bathroom, ready to take a bath and relax.
However, when she was draining the water, she discovered that the water heater in the bathroom of her room seemed to be broken. She had been doing it for a long time, but no hot water came out. Naturally, she couldn't bear to take a cold shower in such weather. After thinking about it, she simply took her clothes and went
She went to the guest room on the second floor, which also had a bathroom, and occasionally she would take a shower there.
Zijin put on the hot water and closed the door, because almost no one came in the guest room here. The Qiao family members were all on the third floor. She and Qiao Jinglian used to live on the second floor here. Qiao Jinglian never came back. Now there are many
It was impossible for Gu Yanshen to enter the guest room, so when she took a shower, the bathroom door was not locked, she just closed it and took off her clothes.
She planned to take a quick shower, adjusted the temperature of the water, and stood directly under the shower. After her body was wet, she reached for the shower gel and just squeezed some out into the palm of her hand when she suddenly heard a bang outside.
Now there are only Li Muhua and Qiao Jingting in the Qiao family. She didn't expect that there was a fourth person, but those two people would never enter the guest room on the second floor. What's more, even if they did, it wouldn't be a big crime for her to take a shower. So Zijin
He didn't take it to heart, turned around, turned his back to the sliding door of the bathroom, and continued to squeeze out the shower gel.
But what she didn't expect was that as soon as she turned around, the sliding door behind her swiped and someone pushed it open from the outside.
Zijin was startled, and her instinctive action was to reach out to protect the key parts of her body. She did not dare to turn around, but turned her face sideways, but the water in the shower above her head was still falling, hitting her face, Zijin's eyes
He couldn't open it either, so he could only make a sound in panic——
"Ah - who is it? I'm taking a shower, get out quickly!"
No one made a sound, and then the sliding door "swiped" again, and he was taken away. Zijin's ears, which were particularly sensitive at the moment, moved, and the next second, he heard the sound of the door lock falling.
…………
————————
I didn’t get stuck here on purpose. Hey, please give me a monthly ticket! I have a lot of monthly tickets. It’s not impossible to see more updates. . . . .
