Seeing her like this, Rong Juan couldn't help but lean down.
Qiao Weiwei suddenly came to his senses and turned away.
Rong Juan paused, and finally just kissed her on the forehead, and then said: "Go to sleep, I won't disturb you anymore."
Qiao Weiyi lay quietly, and after a long time, he slowly closed his eyes.
She really drank a little too much today, and what happened that day consumed all her concentration and energy. As soon as she closed her eyes, she fell asleep not long after.
Rong Juan sat beside her bed and stared at her quietly for a long time. Just like this, he was already full of satisfaction.
…
The next morning, when Qiao Wei woke up in the room full of sunshine, she was alone in the room.
She opened her eyes and lay quietly for a moment to relieve the painful headache, and then slowly sat up.
She had just gotten out of bed and walked into the bathroom when she suddenly heard the doorbell ringing, accompanied by Xie Wanyun's voice: "Youyi, are you awake?"
Only then did Qiao Weiwei walk out of the bathroom and open the door.
Xie Wanyun stood at the door. When he saw her like this, he frowned slightly and said, "Do you have a headache? It's just a company cocktail party. Why did you drink so much?"
"Not much." Qiao Weiyi said, "I was knocked unconscious by the driver when I came back."
"Can dizziness be so uncomfortable now?" Xie Wanyun said as she shook a small bottle of honey in her hand, "Rong Juan prepared this for you and asked me to make it for you. He said he would feel better after drinking it.
"
Qiao Weiwei's brain was still in a somewhat stagnant state, and she didn't react much after hearing this sentence. It wasn't until she walked into the bathroom and washed her face that she realized something belatedly.
She turned around and returned to the room. Xie Wanyun had just boiled the water and was making honey for her.
Qiao Weiwei sat on the bed and watched Xie Wanyun's movements. After a while, he asked again: "Where is Rong Juan?"
"Oh, he said this morning that he had something important to deal with and that he had to leave France first." Xie Wanyun said, "But you were still sleeping at that time, and he didn't want to disturb you, so he told me and left first."
Qiao Weiwei reached out and took the warm honey water she handed over. He seemed a little unresponsive for a moment, "He left?"
"Yeah." Xie Wanyun said, "I left in a hurry. I guess there was something urgent."
After saying that, Xie Wanyun looked at Qiao Weiwei cautiously and said, "Youyi, you won't be angry with him for this, right?"
Qiao Weiwei slowly exhaled and said, "In your eyes, am I such an unreasonable person?"
After hearing this, Xie Wanyun exhaled, then laughed again, holding her hand and saying: "Of course my aunt knows what kind of person you are... But you and Rong Juan just reconciled, and I'm afraid that because of this,
It’s so trivial to make trouble..."
"Auntie." Qiao Weiwei called her softly, and then said, "Rong Juan and I... have not reconciled."
"What do you mean by no reconciliation?" Xie Wanyun said, "Didn't you two make an agreement yesterday? Rong Juan was still in the room taking care of you until so late last night..."
Qiao only listened and didn't know how to answer for a while.
Seeing her like this, Xie Wanyun couldn't help but said: "Yiyi, you used to say that Rong Juan has a bad temper and it's hard to be with him... But now, hasn't Rong Juan changed? Look at yesterday, he
You are so careful and considerate, what else are you dissatisfied with? Have you really given up on Rong Juan and are not willing to give him another chance?"
"Auntie..." Qiao Weiwei called her again, but still didn't answer her question.
"You have been alone for so many years. Of course it is because you are busy with work, but no matter how busy you are at work, there is always time for love, right?" Xie Wanyun said, "But there has never been a second man around you. It's not because of Rong Rong.
Juan, who else could it be because of? Only, now that Rong Juan has changed, you two finally have a chance to start over, why don't you seize it?"
Qiao Weiyi was silent for a long time before finally speaking: "Auntie, because I know Rong Juan too well... some things are deep-rooted in his bones. If I start over again, I'm afraid the ending will be even more tragic... I don't want to face that.
situation."
"The only thing..." Xie Wanyun listened and shook her hand hard again, "What are you afraid of when it hasn't happened? Were you not like this before? You have always been bold and brave..."
"Because some people and some things... I can't afford to lose." Qiao Weiwei said.
Xie Wanyun couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when she heard the words. Before she could think of what to say, Qiao Weiwei suddenly came to her senses, held her back and whispered: "Don't worry, it's just the right time for him to leave now, so I can have time to take care of myself."
Think about it..."
After hearing this, Xie Wanyun could only say nothing more.
…
After Rong Juan left, Qiao Weiwei and Xie Wanyun stayed in Paris for another four or five days.
For Xie Wanyun, these four or five days are completely unnecessary.
Because the reason she initially agreed to Qiao Weiwei coming here to see if she was suitable was because Qiao Weiwei wanted to go back to work abroad, and she wanted to support her;
But now, there is hope between Qiao Weiwei and Rong Juan. She doesn't want Qiao Weiwei to leave Tongcheng at all, so she has actually made her decision a long time ago and will not live abroad no matter what.
But Qiao Weiyi stayed with her for a few more days as planned, and arranged his time very loosely, making every day leisurely.
Despite this, Xie Wanyun still couldn't wait to return to China, so when the day was scheduled to return, the two of them boarded the plane on time.
It was already evening when he returned to Tongcheng. Qiao Weiwei sent Xie Wanyun home first, and then returned to where he lived.
When she opened the door, the house was just as she had left it, and the cups Rong Juan had used to drink from were still on the kitchen bar.
Qiao Weiyi paused for a moment, then walked into the kitchen, cleaned the cup and put it in the cupboard.
In the past four or five days, Rong Juan had no contact with her or Xie Wanyun, not even a word, let alone an appearance.
Therefore, Qiao Weiwei didn't know where he was now, whether he was still abroad or whether he had returned to Tongcheng.
This state of affairs is not strange, and it is not Rong Juan's behavior, but Qiao Weiyi really can't muster up the courage to contact him proactively, so he can only wait and see what happens.
…
The next day, Qiao Weiwei returned to the company early and carefully reported the business trip to Shen Yu at the company meeting.
After the meeting, Shen Yu called her into his office alone again.
As for the issues discussed, of course they still couldn't get around the job-hopping issue they had discussed before.
"How is it?" Shen Yu asked her, "Can you give me a satisfactory answer during this trip to Paris?"
Qiao Weiwei had long expected that Shen Yu would talk to her about this issue, but unfortunately, she couldn't reply to him yet.
"Sorry, actually I haven't thought about it yet..." Qiao Weiwei said.
After hearing this, Shen Yu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "This is not your style."
"Life is always changeable." Qiao Weiwei said, "Sometimes, there is nothing we can do."
Shen Yu said: "Because life is changeable, we must seize certain fleeting opportunities. I will leave next month at the latest. I hope I can get your response by then."
Qiao Weiwei just lowered his eyes and said, "Thank you, Mr. Shen."
After being away for more than a week, Qiao Weiwei had a lot of work documents on her desk that needed to be reviewed and processed, so when she went to work that day, she worked overtime until past ten o'clock.
When she finally got home from get off work, as soon as she got out of the elevator, she unexpectedly found someone at the door.
The man who had disappeared for five or six days was leaning against the wall in front of her house, frowning and operating something on his mobile phone impatiently.
Hearing the noise, he raised his head suddenly. After seeing her, he immediately put away his phone and tried his best to restore his composure.
Joe only looked at him and stepped forward to open the door.
Rong Juan saw her action of unlocking the door, and his face could not help but darken again, and then he said angrily: "Have you changed the lock?"
"Yeah." Qiao Yiwei responded and opened the door.
Rong Juan looked ugly, "To protect yourself from me?"
"For safety." Qiao Weiyi said.
"Hasn't this lock been in good condition for so many years?" Rong Juan said, "What kind of security is this for?"
"It's because the lock hasn't been changed for so many years, but the key has passed through the hands of countless people. How do I know when I come back one day and there will be some mysterious person in the house?"
Qiao Weiwei's tone was calm, but Rong Juan couldn't help but feel angry, "Then you're just trying to guard against me? What do you think I would do to you when I forced my way into the house? Didn't I do the same thing when I was in Paris before? Didn't you do anything? Do you really need to prevent me from doing this?"
Qiao Weiwei changed his shoes, then looked back at him and said, "I told you it was for safety, believe it or not."
Rong Juan suddenly stretched out a hand and said, "Then give me a key."
Qiao Weiwei was startled when he heard the words, and his eyes fell on his open hand. After a while, he moved to his face and looked at him.
The moment they looked at each other, Rong Juan seemed to have suddenly come to his senses. The expression on his face was a little embarrassed, and he silently retracted his hand.
"Honey, I'm not losing my temper, nor am I forcing you." He followed the house, closed the door behind his back, and said, "It's just that I've been waiting at the door for more than an hour, and I'm a little tired -"
After hearing this, Qiao Weiwei exhaled a little helplessly, and then said: "You can call me if you need anything. You don't have to wait for me in front of my house."
"I called one," Rong Juan said, "but it didn't work. I was afraid of disturbing your work, so I didn't continue to call-"
As he said this, Qiao Weiwei's heart couldn't help but shrink a little, and then he looked at him and said, "So? If you have anything to do with me, can't you wait until tomorrow?"
"No." Rong Juan said, "I came here just after getting off the plane. I have to tell you about this as soon as possible-"
When Qiao Weiyi heard his tone, he couldn't help but stare slightly, "What?"
"I found Shen Qiao's whereabouts." Rong Juan said.
