The man in black has followed Mai Zhicheng for nearly ten years. Maybe others don't know what Mai Zhicheng is like, but the man in black knows it absolutely. Not only does he understand it, but he also admires Mai Zhicheng's style.
Eight words: sanctimonious and cruel.
For many people who have not yet been baptized by society, or whose style of doing things is still inseparable from the word morality, Mai Zhicheng's words and deeds are really despicable and shameful. But in the eyes of the man in black, Mai Zhicheng is definitely a person who does great things.
Because he is fearless.
Because he is cruel enough.
But at this moment, Mai Zhicheng did not give him orders to kill the woman in front of him. Instead, he asked himself to leave.
"I said." Mai Zhicheng saw that the man in black was motionless, and there was an irresistible majesty in his indifference. "Leave."
"yes."
The man in black nodded slightly, turned and left the suite.
He's gone.
He believed that Mai Zhicheng would handle this matter and handle it better than himself.
As soon as the man in black left, Mai Zhicheng stood up slowly, walked towards the woman with a slightly frightened look with a smile on his face, and asked with concern: "Didn't I scare you?"
"No--"
The woman said no. But her slightly confused expression and stiff body movements told Mai Zhicheng that she was scared. She was also very curious. Curious about who the man in black was, and curious about the bloodthirsty that the man in black was projecting towards her.
look.
Even if she is just an ordinary university teacher, she can still clearly feel the murderous intention from the man in black. In fact, if it were not for Mai Zhicheng's warning, the man in black would definitely end his life.
"He is my friend." Mai Zhicheng explained patiently and gently.
"friend?"
It was obvious that the woman did not believe Mai Zhicheng's explanation.
The relationship between them is by no means an ordinary friendship.
"He is considered a subordinate." Mai Zhicheng smiled. "He has been with me for ten years and has done many things for me."
"Then he must be a very capable man." The woman said slowly.
She just said a casual word, but Mai Zhicheng fell into silence.
Bai Zhicheng thought about countless possibilities and predicted all the possible answers from the woman. But in the end he could not imagine that the woman would give him such an answer.
So he fell silent.
And was silent for a long time.
"You don't seem to be afraid?" Mai Zhicheng asked meaningfully, with a complicated look in his eyes.
"When he wanted to kill me, I was really scared." The woman said calmly.
"But you are not afraid now." Mai Zhicheng added.
"Yeah. I'm not scared anymore." The woman nodded.
"Why?" Mai Zhicheng asked.
"Because of you." the woman said.
"Because of me?" Mai Zhicheng continued to ask.
"Because you protected me," the woman said. "You warned him not to kill me. So he left."
"Even so, you should still be afraid of me." Mai Zhicheng said seriously.
"You are the man I like," the woman said. "You are also the man I am about to marry. Why should I be afraid of you?"
"Because I am not a good man and very dangerous." Mai Zhicheng said.
"Your danger is limited to others," the woman said. "But your kindness is for me, so I won't be afraid, and there is no need to be afraid."
Mai Zhicheng narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the woman standing in front of him carefully. They had known each other for less than three months, and they met at a charity party. Mai Zhicheng was the well-deserved star of that charity party. But the woman was just
An unknown woman. She is not young. Even in the eyes of many people, she is a sick woman.
A woman who is not married at the age of forty is not sick?
So in theory, this couple should not be together. Because he is excellent. Because she is weird.
But unfortunately, they finally got together and were destined to get married. No matter whether the wedding was happy or not, or whether it could last. For Mai Zhicheng, this was a destined wedding.
Does Mai Zhicheng love her?
Don't love.
Do you like it?
dislike.
All his love and affection were given to his father and mother. He had no extra emotion to love anyone else. All he had was hatred for the world.
But at this moment, Mai Zhicheng realized that there was something really different about this woman. She was so different that Mai Zhicheng wanted to know more about this woman.
"You will never imagine what I have done." Mai Zhicheng said, "Besides, I don't love you either."
There was a hint of disappointment in the woman's eyes. But soon, she calmed down her emotions and said with a smile, "If you love me, that would be hypocritical."
"Why?" Mai Zhicheng asked.
"You are so outstanding. I am so ordinary. Although I don't know why you look at me differently. But I believe you must have your reasons." The woman added. "But to me, these are not important.
The important thing is that you gave me the chance to love you and the right to like you. No matter what, I am happier than most women in the world."
Mai Zhicheng fell silent.
After a long time, he raised his eyes slightly and said, "Are you really not afraid of me at all?"
"I'm not afraid." The woman shook her head firmly. "On the contrary, I have fallen in love with you."
"Why?"
Smart men generally don’t ask why. Because in this world, they understand most things and have mastered most of the knowledge. Even if they don’t understand, it’s hard for them to ask out loud. But tonight, Mai Zhicheng said it in one breath
He asked three reasons why. Even he was a little surprised when asked.
"Because of your talent. Because of your feats. And because of your filial piety." The woman said word by word. "I have never seen a man of your age be so filial to his mother."
Mai Zhicheng laughed.
If a son is not filial to his mother, how can he be a son?
"It's up to you to arrange the wedding date, where to hold the wedding, and in what form." Mai Zhicheng smiled. "By then, you will be the most beautiful bride in the world."
The woman smiled.
Smile as bright as a flower.
As she said, she didn't care about Mai Zhicheng's past. She never cared about what Mai Zhicheng had done. She liked him. She fell in love with Mai Zhicheng when she first met this gentle man. Fortunately,
Yes, Mai Zhicheng gave her a chance to like her, and she was about to step into the wedding scene. After forty years of waiting, she had waited for the prince charming in her life. Even in the eyes of some people, he was simply the embodiment of evil. But this
What does it matter?
Isn’t it often said that if you like someone, you have to like everything about him?
A woman can do it. So she can simply be happy.
Mai Zhicheng said that he would go out to make a midnight snack for her. It was the first time for her to meet her mother for dinner. She was inevitably a little nervous and uneasy, and her stomach was not full. Mai Zhicheng took all this into consideration.
When he was going out, Mai Zhicheng met his mother at the end of the corridor. The clear-eyed mother had a smile full of wisdom on her face and asked, "Is she still asleep?"
"Yeah. I'll make some food for her." Mai Zhicheng nodded and said.
"You should be nice to girls." Ling Hong nodded with a smile and said. "Some time ago you often told me that you would bring a wife home. I really didn't expect you to bring her back so quickly. And you are also a sensible person.
I am a good girl. I am very happy to be a mother. Now I am looking forward to you getting married and having children soon."
For Mai Zhicheng, starting a family is always easier than getting married and having children. She has already achieved it. The latter has been expected by her mother for decades.
Mai Zhicheng has always obeyed her mother's advice. She couldn't help but smile: "I just told her that she would decide the wedding date. I believe it won't be long before we get married."
"This is best." Ling Hong nodded, touched Mai Zhicheng's head and returned to the room.
It's just that this old man who was getting less and less sleep and finding it harder and harder to fall asleep did not go to sleep directly after returning to the room. On the contrary, she came to the wooden table next to the bed with a solemn expression on her face. There was a piece of wood on the wooden table.
Plaque. There are several complicated words engraved on the plaque. The three most shocking words are: Mai Changqing.
That was her husband's name. It was also the name of Mai Zhicheng's biological father. But in fact, Ling Hong always knew that in Mai Zhicheng's heart, Chen Yifei was his father, not Mai Changqing.
"Chang Qing. Should I tell him everything?" This wise woman said softly. "Actually, his father is his father-killing enemy."
