"You..." Xia Yuhe paused before speaking, biting her lower lip. After hesitating for a moment, she finally asked the confusion in her heart: "Don't you hate me?"
This question did not surprise Zhu Tian. He was also asking himself this question: Do I still hate her?
"I hated it." However, in the end, the words that had been woven in his mind for a long time were reduced to these two short words. Zhu Tian looked into Xia Yuhe's eyes with some complexity and said.
Then why do you still want to save me?
This sentence was not spoken! However, Zhu Tian was unexpectedly able to read the question stuck in her throat from her eyes.
Zhu Tian asked himself that he hated her because she resigned from him, causing him to lose his job and even returned to his hometown in frustration!
But because of his expulsion, he unexpectedly received a golden finger after returning home! As a result, he now returned to Shanghai again as a rich man!
However... all of this has passed.
Yes, once many things pass, they are in the past. Then they become an experience in life!
But life must go on, and Zhu Tian is living quite well now... no, it is very nourishing. Of course, the reason to hate her no longer exists.
"There are not many reasons!" Zhu Tian sighed, shook his head, and then said: "To be honest, after I heard that you were fired, I was quite gloating. You should also be able to see that this dress is...
I bought it in that clothing store. However...I suddenly realized that I was quite naive."
"Childish...?" Xia Yuhe chewed the word in a low voice. She was confused by what Zhu Tian said, and her cold eyes were full of confusion.
If Zhu Tian had humiliated her severely or even beaten her, it would have made her feel better. However, this man who she had almost pushed into a desperate situation in life did nothing at this moment.
Then I gave her a hand.
"Why?"
"Even if I take revenge on you, can I get any compensation?" Zhu Tian shook his head: "To be honest, the pleasure of revenge is very satisfying. But if I watch a beautiful woman being forced by a gangster to redeem her debt, and I
I have the ability to stop all this, but I just stand aside and watch with gloating. I’m afraid the guilt after the pleasure is not small! Besides, we are still my acquaintances, and there is no irreconcilable hatred between us. It’s just a job... now
Even if you give me that job back, I'm afraid I won't like it."
It was just a job. Compared with what he had lost, Zhu Tian asked himself that he had gained a lot. If he had not gone home in embarrassment because of losing his job, he would not have obtained the shuttle door, let alone a world!
So, how can you know that a blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise?
I have to say that fate is so magical.
"...After I dismissed you, I thought a lot!" Xia Yuhe looked at Zhu Tian with a complicated expression: "Maybe, as the facts have proved, I am not a qualified manager."
"Your ability is worthy of recognition, but you don't understand people's hearts...well, you also lack some human sophistication!" Zhu Tian said with a smile!
"The human heart and the ways of the world? Are you referring to psychology?"
"No, no, no, it's not the kind of thing that can be written in textbooks... No one can really understand the human heart even if it takes a lifetime..."
The two of them were like good friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time, sitting at the table reminiscing about old times. Although there was no tea and no pleasant scenery, Zhu Tian, who was sitting here, had indeed gained something that he had never received all day long.
Comfortable.
Yes, it’s fun to spend money, and it’s fun to have a big meal... but it’s still a bit lonely.
In this overwhelmingly large city, there is not even one friend with whom he can sit down and talk for a long time. Perhaps this is what Zhu Tian really longs for.
This simple hut brought him a rare sense of tranquility and contentment.
Looking at the sky outside the window, it seemed that it was getting late. Zhu Tian glanced at the clock at the door, which was pointing to 12 o'clock at the moment.
However, at this moment, Zhu Tian suddenly noticed something strange at the door with some confusion.
There were only three pairs of shoes, and there was one pair of shoes that he took off.
But this is wrong. In Zhu Tian's impression, Xia Yuhe has a boyfriend.
"Wouldn't your boyfriend be jealous if you kept me so late?" Zhu Tian asked casually with a smile, but he noticed the gloom on Xia Yuhe's face.
In an instant, Zhu Tian understood the general direction of the matter.
A shrewd woman like Xia Yuhe would definitely not borrow money from someone with an irregular background. Then there is only one possibility. The man abandoned Xia Yuhe after she lost her job. The debt was probably made by him in the name of Xia Yuhe
, borrowed from those criminals.
This also explains why she is living in such a shabby apartment without anyone at this moment.
"Your boyfriend is really nothing." Zhu Tian still couldn't help but say something for her.
"He is not my boyfriend." Xia Yuhe replied calmly, his tone indescribably cold.
"...Why don't you go back to your hometown?"
The indifferent expression on Xia Yuhe's face surprised Zhu Tian. In order to divert this potentially embarrassing topic, Zhu Tian asked casually.
"I don't want to bring trouble home." The strength on Xia Shiyu's face made Zhu Tian couldn't help but move slightly.
This strong woman who was once his boss seemed to have her own strengths. Zhu Tian once claimed that a senior executive in the company fell in love with her beauty, but after thinking about it, he was evil himself.
Being able to open chain stores all over the country, the managers who come to the company will definitely not be ordinary people who think with their lower bodies.
"To be honest, I quite admire you."
Zhu Tian looked into Xia Yuhe's eyes and said with emotion.
"Really?" The tone of that wry smile was full of self-deprecation.
For some reason, when Xia Yuhe opened her mouth, Zhu Tian found a hint of sadness in her eyes. No, maybe it wasn't sadness, more accurately, it was fatigue.
As a woman, after experiencing such a huge gap, she still does not give up on herself and is strong enough to carry everything on her shoulders...
“╮(╯＿╰)╭”
Zhu Tian didn't know what to say to comfort her. He was not a man who was very good at coaxing women, otherwise he wouldn't have been single for more than 20 years.
The only woman now, Li Xinran, came to her door herself!
Silence came again.
"Want to hear my story?" Xia Yuhe's red lips parted slightly.
Zhu Tian nodded and expressed that he was looking forward to it!
Xia Yuhe poured out everything she had experienced since she dismissed Zhu Tian.
From the store's poor management, the company headquarters increasingly questioned her management ability, to the many anonymous letters of complaint, and then to her holding a dismissal notice and leaving the place where she had worked for a year with complicated emotions.
.
Unemployment, betrayal by her boyfriend, threats from the underworld, and the embarrassment of being desperate...
In the end, I had to escape from the rented apartment and moved here to work in a nearby flower shop.
What made her even more sad and desperate was that when faced with the voices of her loved ones on the phone who were proud of her, she was unable to express her sadness. She could only smile and say something against her will: "It's very good, everything is going well at work."
Good luck, Dad, Mom, don’t worry too much..."
After all, my parents are old...
They have worked hard all their lives and can no longer withstand such a big blow!
Zhu Tian also experienced this kind of sadness when he was unemployed. However, his parents passed away early and he had no one to live with. He also wanted to give up on himself, but when he thought of his deceased parents, he could only swallow tears alone.
Then go home!
Xia Yuhe was not trying to gain sympathy, just because she was too tired. She needed to find someone to talk to, and this person had not appeared in front of her until now.
"You are very strong... If there is anything you can do to help, you can call me..." Zhu Tian didn't know how to comfort her. As soon as the words came to his lips, he could only do what he could!
"Thank you, but I don't need sympathy." Xia Yuhe smiled and stretched out his hand to wipe the moist corners of his eyes.
Laughed?
She actually smiled?
This thousand-year-old iceberg claimed that Zhu Tiansheng had never seen her smile before, but now she actually smiled...
Zhu Tian's face froze and he couldn't help but be a little stunned!
