Zhang Chenchu, who was holding a wine glass, and Mayor Si Da, who was eating melon seeds, both glanced at Brother Run. Although this guy spoke coldly, his summary was to the point.
Si Lan began to sit up straighter and stopped chewing melon seeds with his front teeth. He stretched out his hand gracefully and began to peel melon seeds. Zhang Chenchu, who was sitting drinking, raised his eyebrows. In fact, he could peel melon seeds as an art for people to see.
Making it pleasing to the eye is also a technical task.
"Last night he heroically saved the beauty, and he blinded our titanium alloy eyes. This is not like his character!" Si Lan peeled off the melon seeds, put them in his mouth, and chewed them slowly, "Could it be that five
After years of absence, his temperament has changed?"
Zhang Chenchu drank the wine from the cup, shook the cup and glanced up at the rotating light above his head. Maybe, it seemed, indeed, it was a little different. Is it really because of the woman?

The high-end residential area in the west of City D is determined by the industrial zone in the east. The northern area is the wealthy area in City D. A large number of rich people live here. High-end villas are located near the mountains.
The environment is undoubtedly the best prime location in the city.
In the Tong family, early in the morning, a melodious piano sound came from the living room. The middle-aged man sitting on the sofa flipping through the newspapers in his hands, when his eyes were fixed on the photos and bold words on the headlines.
At that moment, he folded the newspaper in his hand heavily and slapped it on the table. The person practicing the piano over there was so frightened that his fingering was messed up.
"Take your time!" Mrs. Tong, who taught her twelve-year-old son how to practice piano, patted her son on the shoulder to show him that he was not afraid. Mrs. Tong glanced at her husband and saw that his face was not good, so she comforted her son softly and asked him to
Continuing to practice, he got up and walked over to take a look at the headlines in the newspapers and said softly: "Yuanyuan did something wrong, but she was also afraid that you would not agree, so she-"
"Is that why we kill first and then tell the story later?" Mr. Tong grabbed the newspaper in his hand, crumpled it into a ball and threw it to the ground, "It's not good for her to choose any man, she must choose this one!!"
The sound of the piano was interrupted again. Mrs. Tong hurriedly asked the servant to take her son back to the room. After her son was sent away, she said softly: "Look, you scared my son! Since this matter has already happened, it should be done
Find a way to deal with it!" Mrs. Tong said, pulling the shawl on her shoulders and frowning. Their daughter's behavior last night really shocked them. She said in front of so many powerful people in D City that she wanted to marry Nie Zhanyun, her husband.
Although he didn't get angry on the spot, his face never looked better.
Tong Bo stood up, wearing a cold dark suit with the shrewdness and calmness of a politician. He squinted his eyes slightly and said softly, "Tell her, you can choose someone else, but you have to choose the son of a corrupt official. There is no point in that."
Room for negotiation!”
"Hey -" Mrs. Tong looked at her husband's leaving figure, sighed, spread out the mobile phone in her hand, and said softly to the mobile phone: "It's time for you to hear what your father said, Yuanyuan, this time,
Mom can’t help you anymore!”

Shu Ran was still woken up by the ringing of her mobile phone alarm. She set the time at 7:30 in the morning because the semester was coming to an end and the winter vacation was coming. All her courses were coming to an end and she would wait until the exam questions for this semester were released.
After taking the exam, I felt relaxed.
Before Shu Ran opened her eyes, she felt that the bed was very hot. When she straightened her legs, the soles of her feet touched the warm heat source. She shrank reflexively and noticed that the places where her outstretched arms touched were also a little warm.
She was stunned for a moment, and then she suddenly jumped up from the quilt and sat up. The wind blowing up the quilt still made her feel a little cold. She sat up and reached out and touched the quilt, and she touched a round thing. She took it out.
At first glance, she saw that it was a small glass bottle filled with hot water. Holding the bottle in her hand, it exuded bursts of warmth. She moved her feet and found that there were many more in the bed. She opened the quilt and looked around.
Surrounding her body were glass bottles of various sizes.
Although the method of filling glass bottles with hot water and putting them under the quilt to keep warm is outdated, when Shu Ran saw these bottles of different sizes rolling all over her quilt, she thought about how she was crying out cold in her sleep last night, but
I slept peacefully afterwards, probably because of these thermos bottles.
Shu Ran has been afraid of the cold since she was a child. This is because she was born prematurely and her body has been weak since she was a child. Especially in winter, her body temperature will be several degrees lower than normal people. Sometimes, even if her body is not cold, she will feel inexplicably cold.
Facing those bottles, she remembered that she used to use this method to keep warm. Nowadays, the heating bags are becoming more and more exquisite, but the warmth of this glass bottle cannot be replaced by these exquisite hot water bags. Shu Ran is here
When she lifted the quilt and got out of bed, she smelled a faint scent of perfume under the quilt, a masculine perfume. She froze beside the bed, and her hands holding the corner of the quilt tightened involuntarily.
Did he sleep in her bed again last night?
Shu Ran lowered her head and smelled the scent of the perfume on her pajamas. The scent was very light and had a sense of familiarity. She got out of bed and walked out of the bedroom, only to see an empty living room. She walked around every room, and finally found the
In the dining room, I saw the birthday cake placed on the dining table. The candles were still burning, but only one-third of them were burned. There was a handful of colorful candies next to the cake, and the birthday card was opened.
The floor is also very tidy and there is no mess at all.
This scene made Shu Ran feel in a daze that what happened last night was all her imagination. She did not push down the cake, scatter all the candies, or burst into heart-wrenching tears. Only the one who opened the door in the wind and snow
The returning man held this cake in his hand!
She walked over, stretched out her hand to pick up the card, and lowered her eyes to see a string of large characters with dragons and phoenixes dancing on the card. They were not the same common words for wishing a happy birthday, but -
Let’s have dinner together in the evening and I’ll pick you up.————Shang Qing Wenliu!
The plain words revealed a faint sense of familiarity. Shu Ran, who was holding the card, closed the card and walked into the kitchen to start making coffee. Unlike before, when the cup of coffee was brewed, he slowly sipped it carefully.
She swallowed it in a voracious motion. Such an unexpected move made her feel awkward and embarrassed. After a cup of hot coffee, her throat was so hot that she felt a little hoarse. She stared at the snowflakes floating outside the window.
, read out three words in a low voice.
"Shang Qingwen!!!"
&&&&&&&
"Of course, I think your birthday is the most memorable. December 24th, Christmas Eve, and one of the three major events that I will never forget every year is your birthday!" Lin Xuejing in the school library
He found Shu Ran who was flipping through information in a sea of books and said, "Let's have dinner together tonight. As usual, go to my house for dinner first. How about that?"
Shu Ran was reaching out to take down a thick book from the shelf of foreign history. She paused with her fingers on the cover of the book, seeming to be thinking about something. Lin Xuejing stood aside and waited for her answer. It took a long time before she heard
She replied calmly, "Okay!"
"Of course, are you worried?" Lin Xuejing leaned over and whispered, yes, from the first time she saw her this morning, Lin Xuejing found that there was something different about her today. She couldn't tell what was different. She still looked the same in appearance.
The makeup is still impeccably done, and the matching of clothes is also eye-catching. It is a mixture of innocence and maturity, but her expression is a bit strange!
Shu Ran didn't reply. She flipped through the catalog and found the key point she was looking for. She opened the page and read every line. She was reading very quickly, but her eyes were fixed. There was a slight dazzle in her eyes. After a while, she felt a little confused.
Annoyedly, she closed the book, took the book with a complicated expression and left, leaving Lin Xuejing with a blank look on her face. She really had something on her mind!
What's going on? She just saw the word 'Shang' on the page of the book, and the domineering line of cursive script she saw this morning came to mind, as well as the name, which was engraved in her mind like a brand.
Same here.
Shangqingwen, Shangqingwen, Shangqingwen...
Shu Ran kept tightening the books in her hands and walked out of the library, feeling a little uneasy. She had been in this state of mind all day. She has always been able to regulate herself well. She was in various states today. Could it really be that day?
The sequelae of impulsiveness at night?
"My mother called you this morning, but you didn't pick up the phone!"
Didn't receive it?
Shu Ran stopped. Her cell phone was actually always on. There was no reason why she couldn't receive it!
Lin Xuejing looked at her mysteriously, and seeing a slight abnormality in the expression of Shu Ran, who had always been calm and calm, she couldn't help but burst out laughing, stretched out her hand to hold her neck and whispered: "It's okay, you're kidding
Although I'm not the only one who knows about my boyfriend, you see how well we all cooperate, don't we all pretend not to know? It's just that my mother felt a little embarrassed and said that it disturbed your dreams so early in the morning.
After realizing it, I quickly apologized and said that I would like to invite you to my house for a meal today. Firstly, I would like to celebrate your birthday, and secondly, you haven’t been to my house for a long time. My mother misses you!"
As for that aquarium, don’t go to it this year. Nie Zhanyun is back, what else is there to do? It’s offending, so it’s better not to go!
"I'm not trying to be my boyfriend!" Shu Ran's tone was a little helpless. When she mentioned the word 'boyfriend' and thought about the man who appeared in her apartment again and again, she felt a little weird in her heart.
"Oh, my mother would be surprised if you suddenly became your boyfriend. This man has yet to be tested before he can take the step from friend to boyfriend! You are very wise!" Lin Xuejing's flattering skills went to a new level,
This also comes from the fact that when she went back and told her mother about the scumbag she met at the charity party, her mother gave her a vivid and vivid love lesson that night, starting from the first moment a man and a woman met.
Lin Xuejing was greatly impressed by her unique insights into the problems faced by the family after giving birth to a child. Jiang is indeed very old!
Shu Ran bit her lip. From what her friend meant, she knew she had misunderstood, but she was too lazy to explain. From what she said, she was not awake when Aunt Wei called this morning, and it was Shang who answered the phone for her.
Qing Wen.
There was an extra man around early in the morning. Aunt Wei and Ms. Shu had the same reaction. It would be abnormal if there was no reaction.
"Of course, it's settled, you all have to come tonight!" Lin Xuejing was looking forward to finishing with these words, and before Shu Ran could react, she ran away and waved goodbye to Shu Ran, "
There is something else to do in the library, let’s meet in the evening!”
Shu Ran reached out and touched her pocket, and sure enough she touched a large handful of colorful candies, in various colors, which were particularly beautiful. She looked at the candies in her hand, and then at the figure of her friend who had gone away.
The corners of his lips raised.
Some people may not care about such a handful of colorful candies, but Shu Ran likes them!
On this day every year, her friends would stuff a handful of candies into her pocket in various ways. During the years when she was abroad, even though Lin Xuejing was away, she would always send her candies, along with a handmade card.
, say happy birthday to her.
Shu Ran peeled one off and put it in her mouth. It was sweet. She put away the candy wrapper and reached out to catch a large piece of snowflakes that had fallen down. From the time she woke up this morning and found the thermos bottle under the quilt to the sweetness in her mouth,
It made her feel that this winter is actually not cold at all!
"Professor Shu, aren't you in a hurry to leave? Today is Christmas Eve!" The teacher in the office packed her bag. She had just answered a phone call and was about to leave when she saw Shu Ran still sitting on the chair and turning over the pages.
book, he kindly reminded me that it was almost seven o'clock.
It gets dark early in winter, and the colorful lights are already flashing outside.
"Christmas Eve is a holiday for foreigners!" Shu Ran said lightly, turning a page of the book without looking up.
The teacher was asking for trouble. He smiled, and when he turned around with his bag, he let out a soft hum. They said that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. Don't think that they don't know how she came to work in this school, Dean Ran.
She asked for it in person! Otherwise, at her age, she can lead a research class? How many people in the school don't know about her relationship with Dean Ran? She originally came halfway, but she suddenly became Dean Ran's most valued pride.
The relationship between disciple and teacher is probably more than that simple, right?
The disdainful snort reached Shu Ran's ears from afar. She closed the book in her hand quietly. The sound of high-heeled footsteps behind her gradually faded away. She lowered her eyes and
The closed book in his hand was gently put down.
Some people hide their secrets in their smiles, and their inconsistency can be clearly seen at a glance. The so-called colleagues around her are all friendly and kind on the surface, but in fact only they themselves know best those thoughts that go around in vain.
Shu Ran stood up and started packing her bag. She put her car keys and house keys in the side bag where they were easiest to take out. The phone on her desk vibrated. The person calling was grandma.
"Grandma!" Shu Ran held the bag and began to button the coat with one hand. She closed the office door as she walked and answered the *** call.
"Girl, you are twenty-three years old today!"
Shu Ran smiled gratefully, "Grandma, I am very happy, I am also very happy, really!"
Grandma's gratified voice came from the other side of the phone, "I know, I know, I wanted you to go home for dinner earlier, but you said you didn't have time to come back, so your grandpa and I thought about postponing the dinner to
On the weekend, when you come back, we will celebrate your birthday with you!"
Shu Ran was filled with gratitude for ***'s thoughtful care. Grandma was almost seventy years old and still worried about her. She nodded in agreement and promised to go back this weekend. Then grandpa grabbed the phone and asked her after a while of greetings.
Did she have a delicious meal? Asked her if she was dressed warmly. She said that young people should not focus on style but not warmth. Girls will get sick if they are cold. They should always pay attention to their bodies. Shu Ran
They all agreed obediently, and only hung up the phone after the old couple over there were satisfied and repeatedly told them to go home this weekend.
Shu Ran was about to put away her phone when a phone call flashed on the screen. The name on the display was 'Shang Qingwen'. She was stunned for a long time. She had not saved his phone number, but there was one in her phone.
his phone number.
The mobile phone rang for a long time. She stood outside the elevator/waiting for the elevator. The mobile phone in her hand kept vibrating. She just put on the Bluetooth headset and connected the phone. As soon as the elevator/door opened, she saw the person standing in the elevator.
The man inside.
As soon as Shu Ran said "hello", she heard a voice in front of her that made her feel uncomfortable, "Shu Ran! I have something to ask you!"
Shu Ran's right hand was pressing the Bluetooth headset on her ear. She had already thought about the words of rejection in her mind when she picked up the phone, but was disturbed by the sudden appearance of He Qianxun.
The gentle voice said, "I'm downstairs in the office building!" She looked up and saw He Qianxun standing in the elevator. When she frowned, she said the word "Okay" in a low voice without noticing.
Exited.
He Qianxun waited for Shu Ran to enter the elevator and closed the elevator door gentlemanly. After Shu Ran hung up the phone, he raised an eyebrow at her and said casually: "You can think of what I told you last time.
how's it going?"
Shu Ran put the phone away slowly, looked straight at the elevator door, and without even looking at him, said calmly: "We don't owe each other anything if we sign it!"
He Qianxun didn't seem to expect Shu Ran to be so straightforward. He glanced at her and chuckled, "Shu Ran, you don't want the money?" What he said that day was that she would set the price. Based on his understanding of her, this
But she would let go of this great opportunity to kill him?
In He Qianxun's view, Shu Ran was a woman who would do anything for money.
Shu Ran watched the numbers on the elevator screen continue to decrease, and listened to He Qianxun's low and sarcastic voice, saying calmly: "Compared to money, I'm more afraid of trouble!"
After speaking, Shu Ran finally turned around and looked at him, "Young Master He, you are a big trouble to me!"
Her point of view is that it's easy to get together and stay apart. If they get along, they can be friends, but if they don't get along, they are nothing. Yu Nuanxin has already come to her once, and she couldn't get rid of her face when asking for help. She doesn't want to cause any more trouble!
'Ding--' As soon as the elevator/door opened, He Qian, who had not achieved his intended purpose, took a step forward and blocked Shu Ran outside the elevator/door. He said helplessly, "For the last time, Shu Ran!"
Young Master He, who has always been arrogant and arrogant, rarely seems so harmonious. This is completely different from the tit-for-tat scenes where they usually get along with each other.
The two of them had already walked out of the elevator. Shu Ran was blocked by He Qianxun, and his expression changed. "He Qianxun, business cannot be done without mercy. Don't let your magnanimity be ruined!"
He Qianxun was angry and annoyed. He had come today with the intention of having a good talk and asking Shu Ran to go back to He's house to meet her grandma who had just been discharged from the hospital. Who asked her to call her by name? If not, how could he?
Will you come here shamelessly?
He Qianxun was speechless by Shu Ran's words. Shu Ran walked around him and walked out the door, followed by He Qianxun. In fact, the price He Qianxun offered must be considerable, but she couldn't help anymore.
As he deceived an old man, it was already ridiculous for the two of them to ask for a marriage certificate at that time. Although it was just a small book in name only for the two of them, at this point, Shu Ran, who had already retired, was
She will definitely not get involved again. There is no guarantee that if she leaves today, tomorrow she will appear on the headlines of major newspapers as the eldest daughter-in-law of the He family's hidden marriage. And based on He Qianxun's thoughts, she may be more than just a stepping stone.
This function means that if you pile it up high and drop it, you can pave the way for his real wife to pave the way for him. He Qianxun's money is not that easy to get!
Both of them are understanding people, but they just want to see if the other is willing, but Shu Ran is not so stupid, and she is not short of money now!
Shu Ran couldn't walk fast. Her knees were injured and her ankles were not healed either, but she still walked in an elegant manner. When she walked out of the building, she saw the black Mercedes-Benz parked there in the distance.
, a low-key black model, but it stands out in the campus full of colorful lights. The man leaning leisurely in front of the car door is wearing a slim black coat, with a long scarf hanging casually around his neck, with one hand loosely inserted in
In his trouser pocket, one hand seemed to hold a cigarette between his fingers. His face was facing the door of the office building. In the thin snow, he flicked the cigarette ashes between his fingers. A faint breath came from his nose. He looked up and saw people coming out of the building.
The woman stood up, put out the cigarette in her hand and easily threw it into the trash can next to her.
She was a little far away, but Shu Ran seemed to see him smiling at her. Although she couldn't see clearly, Shu Ran's mind automatically sketched out his shallow smile. The outline of his face was soft and the bridge of his nose was very soft.
Gao Ting's lips are very thin. When she smiles, the corners of her mouth will be raised. There will be a deep dimple on the left side. Then a familiar smiling face was easily sketched in Shu Ran's mind. Shu Ran suddenly stopped.
How long had they known each other? How could she have such a deep impression on a stranger?
A deep sarcastic laughter came from behind, coming from He Qianxun, who was standing not far away.
"I asked you why you suddenly lost interest in money. So that's it. Shu Ran, do you know who the man standing over there is?"
