People only heard the new’s laughter and never noticed the old’s cry. Although these words were cliché, it was still very suitable to be used under such circumstances.
When Fang Yuan was almost done vomiting, Xia Yu went into the restaurant and asked the waiter for a cup of water. She washed her mouth and drank a few mouthfuls of water before she felt slightly better.
Shen Qiang carried her along.
Xia Yu stood by the side and watched as he dragged her to the intersection. Maybe it was because the moonlight was too bright at night, she could even clearly see Fang Yuan’s exposed chest due to her missing button.
She was wearing black underwear, the most conservative cotton full cup style. However, it only served to make her skin as white as mutton-fat jade.
A car was parked at the intersection opposite to the Moon Watching Restaurant. The half-used Audi was Shen Qiang's car, he asked Fang Yuan for the key to open the car door.
Xia Yu stepped forward, wanting to support Fang Yuan, but she had already climbed into the car by herself.
Just as she was about to close the car door for her, the phone rang. It was Shen Yan.
"Have you finished dinner? Let Xiao Qiang send you back. I told Aunt Wu to wait for you. " Shen Yan's mood was not bad, his words filled with gentleness.
"Don’t bother. I'll just go home by myself." Xia Yu subconsciously looked at Fang Yuan who was bent over on the seat and declined Shen Yan's good intentions.
"You're still injured after all. It's always good to have someone to take care of you …"
"I really don't need to trouble Aunt Wu. Let it be."
Xia Yu finished speaking and hung up the phone, then she noticed that Fang Yuan had gotten out of the car again.
"Fang Yuan, where are you going?" Xia Yu supported Fang Yuan who was stumbling.
"I think I'll take a taxi back." Fang Yuan fiercely shook off Xia Yu's hand and continued to stagger forward.
Her eyes got red, and she almost cried.
Let alone the fact that Fang Yuan was still clear-headed, even if she was unconscious, she could still discern Shen Yan’s voice.
How sweet! Did I disturb them?
"Fang Yuan!" Xia Yu took more steps forward, she was truly unsure why she got mad.
"Enough! I told you I’ll go back by myself, don't follow me!" She suddenly turned her head and shouted at Xia Yu.
Xia Yu was startled. She stood there, her eyes full of doubts. She was at a loss as she did not know why she had offended her.
"Xia Yu, do you know the kind of person I hate most in my entire life? People like you, who pretends to be a good person! " Fang Yuan glanced at Xia Yu fiercely, and then resolutely turned around and staggered forward.
She stopped a taxi which passed by and got into the car. Soon, the car disappeared in the night traffic.
Xia Yu was stunned for a few seconds, after she regained her senses.
"Sister, Sister Fang Yuan is not in a good mood. Don’t mind." Shen Qiang was also shocked by the expression on Fang Yuan's face. Honestly speaking, he had never seen Fang Yuan lose control of herself to such an extent before.
Xia Yu could understand the feelings of Fang Yuan, and she also had suffered tiredness. Especially for the secretaries like them, it was a thankless profession.
They had to face customers, serve their masters as well as their masters' family and friends.
At any moment, they could be slapped in the face. Even if they were slapped in the face, they would still smile and ask the other party if his hands were hurting. This half of the face was swollen due to the slap. But they had to bow with a smile and say that they were sorry.
But no matter how exhausting it was, Xia Yu had never thought of flinching. She had always believed that her hard work would not be in vain and would eventually pay off.
Back then, when she had chosen to stay, Xia Yu had already made sufficient preparations.
As she had chosen the road herself, there was nothing to complain about.
"I'm fine, let's go!" Xia Yu exhaled a long breath, and when she raised her head, she saw a bright and clear bright moon.
Fang Yuan got off the taxi at the entrance of her residential community and stood against the wall for a while.
The night breeze was very cold. After being blown by the wind, she felt her chest churn. She endured the vomiting and took a few steps forward, only to see a car beside her suddenly light up.
Someone got out of the car.
After getting used to the strong light, she could clearly see the person in the light's shadow. She didn't make a sound and pretended as if she didn't see anything and continued to walk inside the building.
Shen Yan caught up her.
"Didn't you say that you had a meal with a manufacturer?" He stared at Fang Yuan and noticed a button was missing from her chest. A small amount of jade colored flesh appeared brighter under the moonlight.
Shen Yan's expression became even angrier.
She ignored him, snorted and continued walking until she reached the lobby of the apartment. She had no intention of stopping.
Shen Yan could only step forward and pulled her hand, "Don't force me to be angry."
However, he was able to see her face clearly when he held her. The lights in the hall were bright, and Fang Yuan’s face looked even paler under the white light. There was even sweat on her forehead.
"What's wrong?"
"Can you let me go?"
Shen Yan immediately released her and retreated a few steps.
He reached out his hand reflexively, but after seeing Fang Yuan stabilizing her body, he put it down.
"Not feeling well?"
Still ignoring him, Fang Yuan fished out a key card and went upstairs.
Shen Yan restrained the urge to ask and followed along the way. He only opened his mouth again after he had entered the house and turned on the lights.
"You look so terrible, don't you..."
But before Shen Yan could finish speaking, Fang Yuan had already rushed to the bathroom with her hands covering her mouth. Bumping onto the door, there was sounds of vomiting from the bath room.
Hearing the fierce vomiting, Shen Yan was feeling extremely scared. After quite a while, the stir inside the bathroom stopped.
"Fang Yuan?" He knocked on the door from the outside.
Fang Yuan did not listen to him, she just curled up by the toilet. She did not eat at noon as she was busy with the company matters. At night, she accompanied Luo Jiancheng to eat, but she only drank a bit of wine. Her stomach had already been emptied out, and now she felt her heart been dug out at this moment.
She rested on the ground for a while, then stood up and washed her face with cold water. The person in the mirror looked haggard and disheveled, like a ghost that had wandered in the middle of the night.
As there was no sound from the living room anymore, Fang Yuan rubbed her face dry and went out just to find Shen Yan was standing by the door with the medicine in one hand and half a cup of water in the other.
"Take it."
"..."
"Take the stomach medicine first."
Fang Yuan felt her throat tighten and her chest become stuffy.
Raising her head, she found the rare gentle gaze of Shen Yan. Naturally, her heart somewhat palpitated.
In the end, she took the cup and swallowed the medicine. After the mouthful of warm water, both her stomach and mind began to recover.
"Thank you!" She returned the water cup back to Shen Yan.
Shen Yan laughed, "you're being so polite with me." After saying that, he turned around to get some water. However, he heard a faint voice floating over from behind him.
Fang Yuan said, "Shen Yan, let's forget it."
Shen Yan's body froze for a moment, the hand holding the cup tightened, "Fang Yuan, what's wrong with you?"
She was too abnormal today, and she looked completely different. Shen Yan felt somewhat uncomfortable.
"Literally."
They met when they were studying abroad. Fang Yuan fell in love with the handsome and humorous Shen Yan.
Even though she knew that their identities were completely different, she had loved him for so many years without caring about the gains and losses.
Even if Shen Yan kept on making rumors, even if Shen Yan was holding another woman's hand in front of her.
She had always thought that as long as she was by his side, she would be able to endure anything. But now, she realized that she was also an ordinary person. She would be angry, she would be jealous.
"Fang Yuan, are you sure you want this?" There was an inquisitive tone in his voice.
"Yes, I'm tired. My parents are getting older. I want to go back to accompany them. " Fang Yuan replied with certainty.It was better to let go than to hold on to the hopeless love. Wouldn't it be more comfortable for everyone?Shen Yan did not hesitate, he turned around and walked out.Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment before smiling bitterly. He might have been waiting for these words for a long time.It seemed that she had really troubled him."Wait!"Just as Shen Yan was about to step out of the room, Fang Yuan began to speak.Shen Yan's tall body trembled. He turned around and saw a contract in Fang Yuan’s hand, "This is the contract signed by with Director Luo tonight. Take it, I won't go to the company tomorrow."Shen Yan took the contract, his hands somewhat trembled.He was clear about Luo Jiancheng’s character. Could she …He could not tell what it felt like in his mind. His beautifu
She got it done with just two sentences? The corner of Shen Yan's mouth twitched violently.Even Luo Jiancheng was defeated, then Zeng Mina must have been extremely scared last night, right? It seemed that Shen Yan needed to have a talk with his big brother. “Um ~ um!" Seeing that his second elder brother did not react after a long time, Shen Qiang made some noise to remind him that he had not replied yet."She is indeed somewhat capable.""Of course, second elder brother. Having Sister Xia as your secretary, you are really lucky.""Kid, you've only known her for one day. Why are you making such a conclusion so quickly?"Okay, that’s it.Shen Yan stood up and walked towards his own room.In terms of what happened yesterday, Zeng Mina was also blunt. It was over now. However, Xia Yu did not show enough respect for her today, so making a phone call to greet her would be the most basic courtesy.A
"Then you must shut Zeng Mina out of Tengfei." Shen Qiang said without the slightest hesitation.This brat had acted as if he wanted to eat Shen Yan yesterday, but today, he started to care about him, "Aren't you angry?"Shen Qiang chuckled and said: "I just don't want him to fail miserably!"well, Xia Yu nodded, as if she was chewing on his words."Sister, you see, the situation is very uncertain right now. Why don't you go and sound out their views?" Shen Qiang moved closer to her."Secretary Xia, Miss Zeng is here to rehearse. She is in the hall of the Sales Department. Chief Inspector is asking if you have the time to go there." Now, Zeng Mina was a hot potato for Tengfei, everyone wanted to evade her. Therefore, the sales department tried its best from getting involved with her.Xia Yu raised her head and looked at her colleagues from sales department and said, "Let her use it if the venu
"Xia Yu, Shen Yan has chosen you, and I'm not a stubborn person, but you are still holding it back. This is the first time I've seen someone so hypocritical like you." Fang Yuan reached out her hand to wipe away her tears."Fang Yuan, who told you that I'm dating Shen Yan?" Xia Yu was so shocked that she almost jumped up. No wonder Fang Yuan treated her like that last night."I saw it with my own eyes. Do I need others to tell me?" Fang Yuan hung up the phone with a clatter.Saw? Saw what?Xia Yu was confused.She thought that Fang Yuan had saw through Shen Yan, so she chose to resign and live a new life. She didn’t know Fang Yuan resigned because she had misunderstood them.She seemed to be a very shrewd person, but why did she have this kind of thoughts?The old saying seemed right. As long as a woman falls in love, her IQ would immediately be negative.Xia Yu felt uncomfortable in her heart.Just
Xia Yu shrugged her shoulders: "That's what I'm told by Fang Yuan."Liu Sijie was stunned for a moment. What things were there in Fang Yuan's head: "I will tell Young Master Yan about this matter. As for Fang Yuan, Xiao Qiang, don't look for her. Xia Yu, whether Fang Yuan will return or not, you have to take responsibility for the Secretariat's work, this is Young Master Yan's decision. ""Then I'll temporarily do it instead of Fang Yuan." Xia Yu understood. Fang Yuan made such a huge blunder, even if the misunderstanding was resolved, she wouldn't come back soon."Mm, then it's decided." After Liu Sijie finished explaining, he went to Shen Yan's office. He had to immediately report such a huge blunder to Shen Yan.Hearing Liu Sijie's words, Shen Yan didn't speak for a long time.If he knew that Fang Yuan would misunderstand the relationship between him and Xia Yu, why would he put on a show with Qingqing? And even cau
Xia Yu cast an inquiring glance at her cousin, and only let go after seeing her shake her head.Li Jing heaved a sigh of relief, raised his head and looked at Wu Shiyu again, then said: "Miss Wu, the evidence is conclusive now, this house was indeed bought by Mr. Shen Mo, I advise you to move out as soon as possible, if we go to the court, it would be bad for everyone."Wu Shiyu was visibly excited: "Lawyer. Li, yes, he helped me buy this house, but I negotiated with him in advance. I'll be their spokesperson, this house is just the fee, and there's even a contract to prove it."Wu Shiyu pushed a document, signed by Shen Mo himself, to Li Jing. There was an official seal of the Shenglian company that Wu Shiyu represented.Li Jing didn't look at it and said instead, "Miss Wu, does the price of this house match with your endorsement income? So, it's better if you don't try to argue.""Why don't they match? I already boug
When Shen Yan went to the office, Shen Mo was busy. He raised his head and glanced at Shen Yan, "I still have two documents to sign, suit yourself."After saying that, he ignored Shen Yan.Shen Yan was really suiting himself. After looking through the office, he finally found a box of top-quality red tea. Only then did he sit down and drink in satisfaction.After about ten minutes, Shen Mo finished his work, and raised his head to look at the leisurely Shen Yan. He asked, "What did you come for?"Shen Yan drank some tea and enjoyed it with his eyes squinted. Hearing his elder brother talking to him, he raised his teacup and said, "Let's have a meal together tonight, the three of us."The three people that Shen Yan was talking about were him, Shen Mo and Zeng Mina.Previously, Shen Yan liked Zeng Mina, but Zeng Mina liked Shen Mo. She pestered Shen Yan all day long, wanted him to ask Shen Mo out.
However, after the two of them sat down at the table and drank some beer, they started crying.They were beautiful girls, why were they so unlucky in relationship?Chen Wenxuan, you kept man, you really disappointed Xia Yu.Xia Yu's goal in life wasn't very high, she only wanted to find a man who loved her and get married to have children. But the reality was that she was wandering alone in a strange city thousands of kilometers away from home.Her family wasn't poor, and she had a fiery personality. She was straightforward, daring to punish evil and show kindness.But now, the huge and bustling city and the enormous pressure in life had forcefully wiped away all the sharpness in her, the replacement was a familiar yet completely unfamiliar self.Wiping away her tears, Xia Yu burped and poured a full cup of beer into her mouth. After drinking it, she fell down.When Wu Shiyu saw this, she push
Shen Yan was on the way to the airport when he received a call from Old Madame who asked him to attend the meeting in headquarters. He was surprised when he heard Old Madame's voice as she finally woke up and could still hold a meeting, which meant that she was in good health.While would it be okay for her to work so hard after just leaving the hospital? Shen Yan was deeply worried.He opened the door of the meeting room, and saw that the directors stood up to greet him warmly.Shen Yan had never been treated like this, so he was really flattered. However, he was not in the mood for that. He looked at Old Madame, only to see that she was talking and laughing with Yang Weiye and President Ning, not like someone who had just woken up from a coma at all.As Shen Yan wondered, Shen Mo also came in. Seeing Shen Yan standing at the door, he asked, "Didn’t you go to T city?"He was really well informed. Shen Yan smiled sligh
"Miss Zeng, come to visit Xiao Man again?" Shen Yang smiled and took two steps to Zeng Mina's side, stopping at the point three steps away from her, "If Xiao Man knew she was exploited by you like this, what do you think she would do?"Zeng Mina's face changed instantly, "Miss Shen, I don't know what you are talking about?"Shen Yang’s smile didn’t change and continued, “It’s okay you have no idea, as long as Xiao Man and Zeng Quan knew it.” After this sentence, Shen Yang didn’t look at her and turned to Shen Qiang directly, “Xiao Qiang, go to ask Xiao Man and Zeng Quan out.""Shen Yang, you can't do whatever you want since it's my place." Seeing Shen Qiang rushing inside where she hid Xiao Man, she suddenly panicked.She thought that she hid so well that even Shen Mo didn't find out this place. Unexpectedly, it's the elder who had better tricks, since Shen Yang even figured it out. No wonder she beat the two brothers of the Shen f
"You see it through?" Shen Yan exhaled and said.Liu Sijie was half choked and didn't speak until he coughed to ease, "It's so obvious. How couldn't I see it through? Am I supposed to go to hell like Chen Wenxuan if I couldn’t see it?""Chen Wenxuan that bastard didn't suffer enough. He did so many evil things but he was still attended at last." Upon thinking of him, Shen Yan got angry. Why should he leave such big trouble behind?"Are you still harassed with it..." Liu Sijie started to assail him with questions."Am I that kind of person?""Then that's because there's a sore in Xia Yu's heart."Shen Yan, putting on a gloomy face, didn't say anything. He viewed the documents in front of him, wrote his signature quickly on it and threw it to him, "Get out!""I won't!" Liu Sijie directly sat onto the table and learnt forward to ask Shen Yan, "Tell me, what happened to you two?""Sam
Since Shen Mo invited her in person, Xia Yu decided to go and see what he was going to say. Shen Mo was indeed famous as Director Cold of S city because he directly chucked Xia Yu a contract."This is?" Xia Yu opened it and found it was a contract of catering. Shen Mo had an ambition. He wanted to cooperate with Ruyi Tower to make a monopoly of the catering market in S city."I talked it to Shen Yan earlier. He said he would think about it." Shen Mo said in his typical tone."I know you always want to expand your business. Why not think about cooperating with me? Rather than wasting time and strength looking for finance and investment, which you have to shoulder the loss and give them extra dividends, we can work together, without any loss, to have dividends of...." Li Dachang was raising three fingers.Seeing the three fingers, Xia Yu felt like laughing, "Isn't there one billion on the contract?""3 to 7, you have 3 w
"Zeng Mina came back for Xiao Man. After all, she had helped Zeng Family a lot. After she came back, she found me and asked me to give Xiao Man to her. To be honest, I was also looking for that woman, but I never got her news. I only found the tape of her being raped. Anyway, that thing was useless to me, so I gave it to her." It was rare for Shen Mo to say a lot."Why couldn't she be found?" Xia Yu murmured."I'm not a superman. It also took a long time for me to find Brother Hu that time after they hid. It will take time." Shen Mo glanced at Xia Yu, frowning.His words made sense, so Xia Yu nodded, "So why are you here?""I want to talk to you about our Shen Family." Shen Mo said directly. He believed that Xia Yu would not mind his directness. All she and Shen Yan needed was a marriage certificate at this time, and they would probably get it the next day if they liked."You'd better talk to Shen Yan. I'm sorry. I hav
"You ask me where she is?" Zeng Mina smiled, and the scar on her face looked more terrifying, "Why not ask Young Master Yan?""Where is Xiao Man?" She repeated, her voice firmer this time.Zeng Mina, who had already turned a cold face, laughed again then. She walked towards Xia Yu's chair, and said, "If you didn’t wanna ask Young Master Yan, you could ask Young Master Mo."Xia Yu steadied her breath."You should not call me here just to show me this video, right? Where is Xiao Man? What are you going to do?""You wanna see her? She has been tortured by you like this. Do you still want to revenge yourself?""Zeng Mina, what do you mean? You think I did that to Xiao Man?""Hah..." Zeng Mina laughed again. She picked up the kettle slowly and poured herself a glass of water, taking a sip, "I didn't say that.""So where is she?""Don't you understand? The video I just show
Xia Yu didn't expect to receive a call from Zeng Mina, whose voice was still as sweet as before, "Xia Yu, you didn't expect I would call you, did you?""Indeed I didn't. How's it going?" When Zeng Mina was about to awake when she left. After so long in the United States, she should have become better, as Xia Yu guessed."Not bad. I'm back home, so I want to ask you for a meal." Zeng Mina's tone was calm."Em... I guess I would not go." Xia Yu was very busy recently, so she wanted to refuse."Why don't you do me the honour of having a meal together?""No!""Fine, let's just meet where I invited you for the first time."After that, Zeng Mina hung up the phone without waiting for Xia Yu to reply.At that time, the sun was about to set, leaving a slight ray of light in the room. Zeng Mina's face, which just underwent an operation, looked horrible under the red light.Xia Yu didn
Shen Yan gently twisted her earlobe from behind and asked, "Are you dazed again?"Xia Yu didn't say anything. Because she was seated with her back against Shen Yan, he couldn't see her expression, only thinking she behaved abnormally tonight.Passion gradually subsided into reason. Shen Yan touched her back with his hand and asked, "Still thinking about Chen Wenxuan?"Hearing that name, she finally reacted, propped up from the bed, picked up his blue shirt on the ground and put it on....Shen Yan took out a cigarette and lit it up, then threw the lighter on the bedside table. Xia Yu still turned her back to the man behind her, and Shen Yan watched her back, slowly blowing smoke rings.A word came from her sober mouth, "Did you ever feel particularly scared?"Shen Yan didn't expect her to ask this question, but there really was. Who didn't have? Just when Xia Yu disappeared two days ago, he felt particularl
"Wanru?" Xia Yu called her tenderly."Ah, you finally think of me?" Wanru curled up her lips and then sent some food into her mouth with the chopsticks."Wanru, actually..." Zhou Yan knew that she felt uncomfortable in her heart but things were not always black or white."In fact, I don't care who is with Young Master Yan. That is his aunt and that is his brother, isn't it?" Wanru said annoyingly."Wanru, Shen Yan doesn't want to suspect his aunt. However, President Zhang is Shen Mo's man and Shen Mo is his eldest brother. If he had something to ask for Shen Yan's help, Shen Yan couldn’t turn down." Xia Yu also knew that Zhang Hanyu asked Shen Yan out this time possibly because of Shen Yang.Xia Yu's instinct told herself that Shen Yang wouldn't poke her finger into it. But, instinct sometimes could be mistaken. For instance, she chose to believe Chen Wenxuan but it turned out that Xia Yu was wrong."Yeah,
