Angel is 30 years old this year, and her meticulous care makes her look younger than when she just graduated from college. No one can believe that she is the mother of a five-year-old girl.
As a woman, An Qi's life is almost perfect. After graduating from university, she worked in a foreign company and found a foreign Chinese husband that everyone envied. She worked as a full-time housewife in a mansion in Gubei New District. She had a luxury sports car and her husband paid her monthly salary.
She has a living allowance of 50,000 yuan and has a lovely daughter.
But An Qi knew in her heart that she was just one of Jin Xudong's countless women. This forty-year-old man was not good-looking but had a strong possessive desire for beautiful women. She became Jin Xudong's woman after graduating from college, and even more so after the birth of her daughter.
Become the canary in Jin Xudong's cage.
This Spring Festival, An Qi did not go back to her hometown in Sichuan, but stayed in Shanghai to celebrate the New Year. Her only pleasure was shopping, buying everything from clothes and accessories to daily necessities for home.
In the evening, the driver drove the Touran to Carrefour in Gubei. An Qi got out of the car with a small handbag, and the nanny followed closely behind with the child in her arms. This nanny was found by Jin Xudong from his hometown in Anhui. She is a bit stupid, but very loyal.
, very obedient.
There were a lot of people in the mall. An Qi was pushing the cart in front, and the nanny was following behind with the child in her arms. As she walked, she looked back and saw that no one was there. She stood there and waited for a while, but there was still no sign of the nanny or the child.
, An Qi became a little angry, and searched around, but the nanny seemed to have disappeared without a trace.
Feeling a little panicked, she took out her cell phone and hurriedly called the nanny, but no one answered. She called again, but still no one answered. Now An Qi was really scared. The news on TV and the Internet came to her mind. Could her daughter be the one being raped?
The nanny should take it away and sell it!
When people panic, they lose their sense of proportion. An Qi, who was originally very smart, was at her wits' end and ran around like a madman. Suddenly she saw her nanny face to face, also looking lost. An Qi rushed over and asked: "Where is Mimi?"
Gone?"
The nanny burst into tears: "I went to the bathroom and asked Mimi to wait for me at the door, but when I came out, no one was there."
An Qi yelled: "Why didn't you answer the phone?"
The nanny cried: "The phone volume is too low, I didn't hear it."
Now that it's over, An Qi's heart trembles. If it was the nanny who abducted her, at least there are clues to follow. If someone takes her away in a shopping mall, it will be difficult to solve the case. She thinks of her daughter being abducted and living on the streets in other places.
Begging, An Qi burst into tears.
Her daughter was her life, and she couldn't live without her. An Qi felt dizzy, her legs were weak, and her throat was sweet. Just when she was about to collapse, she suddenly heard the announcement from the mall: "A customer is lost."
A girl about five years old, please go to the service desk to claim her."
An Qi was excited and ran to the service desk. She rushed to the place in a hurry. The staff pointed to the tea seat next to her. An Qi saw her sweetheart sleeping soundly in the arms of a strange man with a blanket on him.
Wearing someone else's coat.
Her violently beating heart finally calmed down a bit. An Qi walked over and said, "Sir, this is my daughter, please give it back to me."
The man put his index finger to his lips and hissed: "I believe you are the child's mother, but just to be cautious, can we wait for the child to wake up and confirm?"
After hearing this, An Qi was not unhappy, but felt even more relieved. There was no doubt that the man was a real gentleman. Only then did she take a serious look at the man. He was of medium build, with an approachable smile, elegant and casual.
The clothes you wear are of international brands, and the Italian handmade leather shoes on your feet are worth a lot of money.
After a while, Mimi finally woke up, yawned so cutely, opened her eyes, looked around, and called out to her mother with a sweet voice.
The man smiled, handed the child to An Qi, and said, "Now the little princess is officially handed over to you."
But Mimi suddenly started to make a fuss and wanted to be hugged by her uncle. The man smiled and said, "Uncle doesn't dare to ask for you. I'm going to bankrupt him in just a few minutes."
Only then did An Qi notice that there were a lot of pastries and drinks on the table. Needless to say, they were all ordered by her precious daughter. She quickly went to take out her wallet: "How much will I give you?"
"I'm kidding, okay, I have to go, see you little princess." The man's mature and gentle smile made An Qi feel like a spring breeze. The hand holding the wallet froze. An Qi, who had always regarded herself as a petty bourgeoisie, actually felt that she
Insufferably vulgar.
The man picked up his coat and left. An Qi suddenly remembered that she hadn't asked the other person's name, and she felt extremely regretful. Mimi was clamoring for her uncle again, and she couldn't coax her until she got in the car. An Qi understood that what her daughter actually needs is her father.
like.
Although Jin Xudong is rich, he cannot give Mimi enough fatherly love. He comes and goes in a hurry every time. An Qi knows that she is only a mistress and is not qualified to ask for too many things, but deep down in her heart she
I also want to have a complete family, a normal family, even like those white-collar workers who are struggling with the pressure of mortgage loans, but I can't do it again.
Back home, An Qi was still distracted. The strange man's smile kept lingering in her mind. What kind of person would he be? Returned scholars, financial executives, doctors, lawyers, An Qi set up countless stories with men.
I have even thought about what to say when we meet again, but in such a huge crowd, the probability of meeting again is very slim.
The next day, An Qi took Mimi to Gubei Carrefour again. In fact, she also knew that this was in vain, but lonely women always need a little fantasy to anesthetize themselves. After walking around in a circle in vain,
Driving back and driving slowly after entering the community, I suddenly saw a familiar figure not far away. Wasn't it the gentleman from yesterday?
An Qi's heart was beating fast. She suppressed her inner excitement and parked the car on the side of the road. She lowered the window of the Mercedes-Benz SL300 sports car and waved: "Sir!"
The man turned his head and looked back, and when he saw Mimi's little face, he immediately came over and said, "What a coincidence, we meet again."
An Qi opened the door and got out of the car. She had forgotten all the lines she had planned yesterday, so she could only say dryly: "Haha, yes."
"Do you live here?" the man asked.
"Yes, I live in District 3, how about you?" An Qi suddenly felt that what she said was so stupid.
"I'm about to move here, also in District 3." The man replied.
Most of the people living in the third district are diplomats or foreign business people. The identity of the man is obvious. An Qi secretly said: "Great, we will be neighbors from now on. Which number do you live in?"
The man pointed to the distance and said: "It's over there. Look at my memory. I can't remember my house number. In fact, it will take a few days to officially move here. It may be difficult for you to understand. I have too many belongings. I brought them from the UK."
I filled half a container full of books.”
"So, you are a scholar?" An Qi said in surprise.
The man smiled and said, "That's right. I gave them a few classes in Oxford on the history of Chinese classical literature."
An Qi wanted to say something more, but the man's cell phone rang. He said sorry and answered the phone. An Qi could tell that this was an authentic Oxford accent.
"Sorry, I have some things to deal with." The man hung up the phone and said to An Qi.
"It's okay. By the way, I haven't asked for your name yet?" An Qi took the initiative and stretched out her soft little hand.
The man's strong and warm hands took An Qi's weak and boneless little hand and shook it: "The surname is Liu, Liu Ziguang."
"My name is An Qi, and my English name is also An Qi. This is my phone number. May I take the liberty of inviting your wife to my house tomorrow? The coffee I make is delicious." An Qi said eagerly.
"It must be annoying." Liu Ziguang took An Qi's business card, pinched Mimi's little face, and walked away quickly. An Qi watched him get into a Jaguar car, and then left with satisfaction.
In the Jaguar car, Shangguan Jin said sarcastically: "You have only known each other for less than ten minutes, and I think she is planning to find a stepfather for her daughter."
Liu Ziguang smiled modestly: "It's Team Leader Shangguan's clever strategy, using children as the entry point, which has proven successful time and time again."
Shangguan Jin said: "No matter what, you are still very charming. You are definitely a young woman killer."
The two bickered and drove away.
…
The next day, An Qi got up early, took a shower and washed her hair. She looked at the cabinet full of designer clothes and sighed that she had too few clothes and didn't even have an outfit suitable for today's occasion. It took her two and a half hours to choose the best outfit.
After putting on the silk clothes that reflected her creamy skin, she began to spend time combing her hair. She wasted two hours and overthrew all her thoughts. She just let her hair grow and shawl her shoulders, making her look even more feminine.
Mimi was not idle either. Her mother tossed her through more than a dozen outfits. The little girl opened her eyes wide and asked, "Mom, is daddy coming back?"
An Qi said: "The uncle who hugged you the day before yesterday is coming to our house as a guest. Mimi, you must be polite."
Mimi immediately became excited.
At noon, the call had not come yet, and An Qi started to feel regretful again. She should have asked for Liu Ziguang’s phone number, and there was little hope of waiting for him to come to the door. He was a great scholar and professor, and he was also elegant and rich, so how could he care?
As an ordinary neighbor, although she has good looks, she is still a loser and a mistress. Thinking of this, An Qi couldn't help but feel bad about herself. If she had known better, she wouldn't have done this to her. She is a good man in the world.
So much, it's really not worth hanging on Jin Xudong's tree.
Mimi raised her face and asked, "Mom, why isn't uncle here yet? I'm already hungry."
An Qi said angrily: "If you're hungry, eat a small cake."
Suddenly the iPhone 4 on the sofa rang. An Qi rushed up to grab the phone and said as calmly as possible: "Hello, who are you?"
"Hello, Ms. An, my name is Liu Ziguang. My wife and I would like to visit your house at four o'clock in the afternoon. Is it convenient?"
"It's convenient and convenient. Welcome. Okay, that's it. Goodbye." An Qi put down the phone and danced happily. However, thinking that Mr. Liu also brought his wife, she felt a little uncomfortable, but then she thought about it again.
, how could such an excellent man not be married? Besides, he was just a mistress, so how could he be so demanding on others?
Suddenly, An Qi felt her face getting hot. Where did all these thoughts go? Did she subconsciously want to betray Jin Xudong?
