Flower Room
Chapter 38
Chapter 38
Already at the elevator entrance, Manzhi said goodbye to Chang Shaohui, but he refused to let go of her hand, and said with a smile: "It's all here, let's go up and sit for a while, anyway, it's still early."
Manzhi couldn't help but laugh, it turns out that a man in love is also very clingy, even though he is as refined as Chang Shaohui, she obediently followed him into the elevator.
He lived on the 12th floor, and when he got out of the elevator, she let him hold hands and walk all the way on the gorgeous carved carpet.The aisle was surprisingly quiet, and Manzhi felt a little nervous for some reason.
After entering the door, Chang Shaohui first handed her a bottle of water, and then asked, "Do you want tea? To drink tea, you need to boil water."
Manzhi quickly waved her hand and said, "Don't bother me, I'll just sit down for a while and leave."
The hotel is very close to the urban area. She stands at the window and overlooks the brightly lit city. All the buildings that can be seen clearly are decorated with neon lights. The colorful outlines are as dreamy and unreal as fairy tales. However, it is beautiful.
When Chang Shaohui hugged her from behind, her body still trembled, she instinctively wanted to dodge, then, realizing something, she stopped immediately.
She understands that this is a part that every couple should go through, and what she has to accept is not just the warmth of his palm.
But the unreasonable tension in the aisle just now hit her nerves intensified now, even though his movements were submissive, she couldn't relax.
Chang Shaohui kissed very skillfully, there was no sudden intrusion, but it was lingering and lasting.
There was a faint scent of sandalwood like breath, so close, his eyes were just above her, the dark pupils were suddenly magnified several times, swallowed up endlessly, she hurriedly closed her eyes.
She was amazed at her sobriety, she could feel every subtle movement of him, how his hands supported the back of her head, how the tip of his tongue opened her teeth...
She even had a very strange idea, so kissing is like this!
When Shao Yun kissed her in the past, which time was it not thrilling?So much so that when she thought about it afterwards, her mind was always in chaos, unable to grasp any real essence, only the feeling of trembling lingered all over her body.
Manzhi couldn't express exactly how she felt at this moment, she just let herself get used to the intimacy with Chang Shaohui—a tenderness completely different from Shao Yun.
Chang Shaohui's hands became hotter and hotter, gradually moving down from the back of her head, trying to break through her bottom line, Manzhi's ears gradually became hot and her heart beat, her body froze again.
His breathing was right next to her ear, and at this moment it was rapid and violent, and the strength in his hand also increased a bit.
She felt that she shouldn't refuse, after all, she was not innocent, he was a good lover, and they would get married in the future...
But she suddenly became afraid, this man who was entangled with her suddenly became so strange, who is he?
Without thinking too much, she pushed him away with all her might.
Chang Shaohui's misty eyes were suddenly covered with haze, he stood still, staring at Manzhi in a daze.
"I'm sorry." Manzhi bowed her head guiltily and whispered softly, like a child who did something wrong, she knew it shouldn't be like this, but she couldn't control herself.
She thought he would be angry, but he only smiled wryly twice, then approached her, raised his hand pitifully to smooth out the messy hair on her forehead, and said softly: "It's okay, we can... Take your time."
Originally, he wanted to use a straightforward method to completely dispel her remaining hesitation and make her completely his own, but she was obviously frightened.
He sighed in his heart. After all, he was not used to winning by plundering, even if it was a woman he liked very much.
When she got home, Manzhi's mind was still full and she couldn't think of anything.
She threw off her shoes, handbags and all the cumbersome things, and went to the bathroom to take a hot bath to relax her overly tense nerves. When she finally collapsed on the bed, she was completely relaxed.
There seemed to be a lot of twists and turns happening all at once tonight, and she had to calm down and think about it, digesting it carefully.
To the United States? !
When Manzhi was still a student, she often heard this fresh and attractive word mentioned in the college, but at that time, she dared not expect to go abroad. For those students who could make the trip, she not only showed a little envy, but also There is no other idea, after all, it is too far away.
But now, Chang Shaohui actually sent her such an invitation.
"After arriving in the United States, you can do nothing, go on a trip, or be a full-time wife at home; if you feel bored, I can help you find something easy to do...Of course, you can also choose to go to school Read books, and in short, do whatever you like."
The blueprint he drew for Manzhi still attracted her, and those beautiful dreams that had been drifting away suddenly became within reach, and she was as happy as if she suddenly found a treasure, but she seemed a little unable to bear it.
From now on, can she really live so happily?
Chang Shaohui was right, what she couldn't pass was the test in her heart.
After walking so far, if she misses her family and children, what should she do?
However, what Chang Shaohui said made sense. If she continued to stay in this city, she would never be able to get along with Shao Yun. They would eventually become mutual interference, and no one could start over.
Therefore, since she has no intention of getting back together with him, she has no choice but to completely cut off the way out.
As for Mengmeng, in a few years, when she grows up, she will understand Manzhi's choice. Besides, there are many variables in the future, for example, Shao Yun will remarry, for example, Mengmeng can go to study abroad...
Manzhi found that no matter what kind of thought she had, she could quote a passage from Chang Shaohui to give a reasonable answer, and he knew her hesitation well.
When her eyelids gradually became heavy, she felt that she was gradually able to accept and adapt to his thinking.
Starting a brand-new life will always cause various discomfort symptoms at first, but Manzhi doesn't want to avoid it anymore. Life is short, and she doesn't have much time for herself to squander and swing.
In any case, this time, she really planned to start over...
Manzhi had a dream overnight, many messy fragments about the past, sister, Shao Yun, Mengmeng, everyone stretched out their hands to her, she turned her face away, at the other end was Chang Shaohui's expectant gaze, he stood The top of the cloud whispered to her, "Manzhi, come with me, don't look back..."
She stood in the middle, in a dilemma, unable to give up on both sides. While she was struggling, there was a harsh sound of gongs in her ears. She felt that she had something to say to Chang Shaohui, so she tried to raise her head and shouted at him, but suddenly found that , he has disappeared...
She was sweating from startle, and woke up in a daze. There was some voice that kept ringing, conveyed from reality to dream, waking her up.
The mobile phone on the cabinet kept flickering. She brushed her slightly damp hair and turned the alarm clock to see that it was only 04:30 in the morning. Who would choose such a time to call her, she must be crazy, or... out What's the matter? !
She jumped up in a jerk, and before she could turn on the desk lamp, she grabbed the phone in her hand.
She was surprised by the jumping prompt on the screen, it was actually Shao Yun!
This lunatic!
It was the darkest hour before dawn, and she just woke up from a frightening dream, only feeling powerless, "What happened?"
"Manzhi!" Shao Yun's tone was cheerful and excited, "I'm sorry to wake you up! I have good news to tell you - all the molds just opened are up to standard, and they are actually produced by Shao CM mold!"
His excited tone instantly colored her, and she also smiled in the dark, "Really? That's really great!"
He nodded heavily, completely forgetting that she couldn't see at all. The boulder that had weighed on his heart for a long time can finally be removed. This step is so smooth, and it is so difficult!
He knew that Manzhi was also happy, and he could feel that no matter what it was, he hoped to share it with her as soon as possible.
Kong Lingyi also didn't close her eyes all night, and she stood silently at the door, listening to him happily describing a tense experience to someone on the other end of the phone. She knew who it was, but she didn't even feel sad. Can't get up.
Shao Yun finally hung up the phone satisfied, turned around, only to notice that Kong Lingyi had been standing in the office for a long time.
In her hand was a stack of thick paper, and she handed it to him with a smile, "I just came from Old Lu, and this is the latest test data - very beautiful!"
Shao Yun took it over, smiled at her, and flipped through the pages one by one, with a deeper smile on his face.
At the bottom was an envelope. He put the data on the table, raised the envelope and asked her in surprise, "What is it?" Kong Lingyi smiled and said, "I should have given it to you a long time ago." Yes, my... resignation letter."
Shao Yun was stunned for a moment, but soon recovered to his natural state, as if he had expected it, and asked with a smile: "Why, are you tired of being in Shao's?"
She actually wanted to leave earlier, but Shao Yun has been facing difficulties and she couldn't open her mouth. Now that she finally has a turning point, she doesn't want to continue to torture herself.
The sooner you leave, the sooner you will be relieved.
She didn't deny it, nodded and said lightly: "Yes, after staying in one place for a long time, I will feel lazy. A classmate of mine opened a company in the United States and invited me to help out a while ago. I think it suits me , so I agreed."
She wasn't telling the truth.
In fact, Shao Yun and Dai Yifang have always maintained close contact. He knew that he had recently set up his own family, and he also mentioned to himself that he wanted to invite Kong Lingyi to come over.
However, since she didn't want to mention it, it was inconvenient for Shao Yun to point it out. Although it was regrettable to lose an assistant, he was really happy for her.At least, she is willing to get out of the haze of the past and try to get in touch with new people and life, which is a good sign after all.
Manzhi ended all her experience in the past few years in a few words. She spoke extremely concisely, but Fang Zhuyun was still so shocked that she couldn't keep her mouth shut for a long time.
"I really didn't expect your marriage to be so... miserable!" Fang Zhuyun sighed, "Manzhi, what you have gone through is enough to write a book!" Her voice quickly lowered a little, staring at Manzhi asked: "So, are you determined to leave with Chang Shaohui?"
Manzhi supported her face, looked down at the clear outline of her face reflected on the glass table, her brows seemed to be knotted, and she asked gloomily, "Do you think it's wrong for me to do this?"
Fang Zhuyun calmed down now, "It's useless for you to ask me! This matter is up to you—it depends on who you have in your heart?"
This is by far the most tangled problem for Manzhi, if she can distinguish clearly, she won't be so troubled.
Fang Zhuyun's seriousness can only be maintained for a few minutes, so she couldn't help laughing and said at this time: "You don't like both of them, haha, I really can't see that the upright girl back then wants to step on two boats now! Hey, It’s better to forget about the tribe that sent you to Africa, monogamy and two husbands are normal.”
Annoyed, Manzhi picked up the small coffee spoon and tapped it on the back of her hand, "No matter what you say, you are out of shape."
Fang Zhuyun didn't like her, and continued to tease, "But having said that, I really didn't expect Chang Shaohui to fall in love with you." Seeing that Manzhi's face was not very good-looking, she immediately said: "Hey, don't worry, I will I don't mean to belittle you, but that guy seems to have an emotional cleanliness, and you are a second marriage... Hey, but who knows what's going on now, as long as one of you is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, hehe! "
Manzhi was made more erratic by what she said, and murmured: "Yeah, I also think he is too good, I really don't know what he likes in me? Sometimes I think...he is like the moon in the water, as if It’s right in front of your eyes, but you can’t actually get it at all.”
Fang Zhuyun looked at her expression from left to right, "Are you inferior? Or—are you reluctant to part with your repentant ex-husband?" Manzhi gave her a blank look, "Are you trying to mess with me?"
Fang Zhuyun happily took two sips of fruit juice, then raised her head suddenly, and said with a serious expression: "It's easy to say."
Manzhi looked at her expectantly.
"You must answer my questions honestly."
"Okay, you say."
"Do you still want to go back to the old days?"
Manzhi hesitated for a moment, but still shook her head, "Of course not." Otherwise, why would she get divorced!
Fang Zhuyun slapped the table, "That's over, choosing a new partner and starting a new life is your best choice! Although I always say that Chang Shaohui is wrong, but in my conscience, he is indeed a good man, honest, Clever and without any bad habits, she is a rare spouse!"
Seeing that Manzhi was still frowning, Fang Zhuyun smiled and sighed: "Oh, I have seen it through. Sometimes having too many choices may not be a good thing! I think you are worried!"
Manzhi raised her eyebrows suddenly, her eyes sparkled and she said: "Who says I'm worried, I've already made up my mind?!"
"To the United States?"
"Yes! Go to America!"
Manzhi found a suitable time to bring this matter up to her family, but unexpectedly they were very supportive, and Su Jinbao was especially happy.He always thought that his most beloved little daughter had been delayed by Shao Yun all her life, so that she became depressed and sick. He didn't expect that there would be a day when things would turn around.After he saw Chang Shaohui, needless to say, he was satisfied and relieved, as if most of his illness had gone away.
Once the decision was made, Manzhi stopped thinking about it and concentrated on acting.So she became busy all of a sudden, she had never been abroad, so she had to get a passport and a visa as soon as possible. Fortunately, Chang Shaohui was there to help.But the review to the United States is really troublesome. All the materials have been handed in, and the next step is to wait.
Chang Shaohui was supposed to go back in a week, but after looking at the current situation, he applied for an extension with the headquarters and stayed to wait for Manzhi.Science and Technology's new product development is also in progress, and if he doesn't leave, the R&D team is simply wishing for it.
The days were much easier than before. In the evening, he stopped working overtime, went to the flower shop to find Manzhi early, and then spent the whole night.
Manzhi is also gradually getting used to getting along with Chang Shaohui. This is not a difficult task. For her, the rare thing is how to face Shao Yun and Mengmeng.
Shao Yun would still call her from time to time, and sometimes ask her out, but she would always refuse for one reason or another. Fortunately, he was also busy and had no time to go around with her.
It doesn't matter if she is timid or cowardly, she just doesn't have the courage to tell Shao Yun her decision, she vaguely understands that if she lets him know, maybe she will never be able to leave again.
Only Mengmeng, every time they met, Manzhi would snap her fingers, counting the fewer and fewer days when the two of them got together, she couldn't stop feeling uncomfortable, she had to constantly give herself psychological training to restrain the occasional Thoughts of regret came to mind.
Facing Chang Shaohui's wholehearted waiting, how could she have the heart to let her down?
In a blink of an eye, half a month has passed, and the weather is getting hotter, and it is gradually turning into midsummer.
Manzhi got the passport first, and according to Chang Shaohui, the visa will be issued soon. He entrusted the company's colleagues to help, which is much more convenient and quicker than Manzhi's own application.
On the night of getting the visa, the two agreed to go to the newly opened Konjac Buffet Western Restaurant to have a small celebration.
This restaurant is located on the top floor of one of the tallest buildings in the city center, so when it comes to dining, more people go for the night view.
The two walked in arm in arm, talking and laughing. The waiter was kind and polite, and led them to the double seat by the window. It wasn't too early. The angle of view here was a bit off, but it was acceptable.
There are a lot of people dining, and they are close to the bar, and there is an endless stream of customers taking drinks.While drinking tea, I heard someone shout in surprise, "Mr. Chang!"
So the seven or eight people sitting diagonally opposite all looked over, and Chang Shaohui had no choice but to stand up and say hello, "What a coincidence, it turned out to be Lu Gong!"
Lao Lu shook hands with Chang Shaohui enthusiastically, and the success of CM profiles suddenly shortened the distance between them, and they had long since settled down.Looking at Manzhi, he became a little cautious, not knowing how to greet him properly, so he smiled and nodded in general.
When Shao Yun walked over, Manzhi became obviously unnatural.
His complexion was unpredictable, and there was a hint of sullenness in his smile, but it was well concealed, almost undetectable, but Manzhi still felt a little apprehensive.
Fortunately, he didn't have any outrageous behavior, he just exchanged a few words with Chang Shaohui, and didn't even look at Manzhi.
"It turns out that Mr. Chang hasn't left yet. If that's the case, it's time to come to Shao's for a while." Shao Yun held his cup and spoke enthusiastically.
Chang Shaohui said a few polite words, caught sight of Kong Lingyi standing behind Shao Yun, smiled and nodded at her, "Miss Kong, I haven't seen you for a while."
Shao Yun turned his head to look at her, and said with a smile, "You two will have more chances to meet each other in the future, and Ling Yi is going to America soon."
Chang Shaohui raised his eyebrows, and said in surprise: "Really? I haven't heard Miss Kong mention it before. Why, Director Shao wants to send Miss Kong to work..."
Shao Yun laughed loudly and said, "Shaw's tentacles haven't grown enough to reach the United States..." His voice sank suddenly, "Ling Yi is leaving Shao's, and we have dinner here today to give her a farewell farewell."
Chang Shaohui understood, but still couldn't hide his astonishment. He had already guessed a little bit about Kong Lingyi's thoughts, but he didn't expect that she would choose to quit at this time.
After chatting for a few words, everyone returned to everyone. The hustle and bustle a few minutes ago dissipated like the white mist on the glass in winter.
Chang Shaohui could feel Manzhi's abnormality, and the enthusiastic conversation just now did not affect her, so she remained silent, and has remained silent till now.
"There are so many people here, do we want to - change the place?" He pretended to be nonchalant and asked considerately.
She shook her head and sipped her tea, but couldn't taste it.
Chang Shaohui thought about it for a while, and felt that if it came, it would be safe, and escaping was not the way, so he smiled and asked, "What do you want to eat? I'll get it for you."
Manzhi raised her head, his eyes were full of encouragement, she suddenly resented herself for being worthless, yes, there is nothing to be afraid of, even if Shao Yun is here, so what?She is free.
So she smiled back and said, "No, I can do it myself."
She went out "bravely" to pick up plates and choose food. However, no matter where she went, she could always feel the eyes of the double genitals following her. She forced herself to ignore it and be calm.
Shao Yun sipped his beer slowly and hardly ate anything. The others went out to get food frequently, stood by the window to watch the scenery, and chatted.
Kong Lingyi came back with two plates of fruit salad, handed one in front of Shao Yun, and followed his gaze. Manzhi was hesitating in front of a row of sushi, as if thinking about which variety would be more delicious.
"You don't seem happy?" She blinked her eyes.
Shao Yun raised his eyebrows, "Is there any?" His eyes still stayed on Manzhi.
Kong Lingyi was already staying out of the matter at this time, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Chang Shaohui is not your opponent."
Shao Yun suddenly heard her say this, and unconsciously glanced at her, she was indeed alert, and could clearly see the facial expressions of the three of them.
He squinted at Kong Lingyi, and said in a low voice, "It's not a good thing for a girl to be too smart."
Kong Lingyi deliberately distorted his meaning, "Are you talking about Su Manzhi?"
"Her?" Shao Yun snorted coldly, "She just thinks she's smart."
Kong Lingyi nodded earnestly, "Oh, I see, you mean me—okay, I will learn to pretend to be confused in the future."
Shao Yun looked at her again and suddenly burst out laughing.
Manzhi felt full after not eating much. Chang Shaohui brought back various fruit juices and vegetable juices and explained the benefits one by one. Manzhi was a little dizzy. When did he become a nutrition expert?
She drank so much fluid without realizing it, she had to get up to go to the bathroom.
Chang Shaohui took a glass of drink and walked towards the window. Looking down from the 48th floor, the whole city seemed to be submerged in a bottomless black sea, and there were stars shining faintly, which seemed somewhat mysterious.
The restaurant has a circular layout, the outermost circle is a transparent viewing glass window, and a variety of food is displayed in the arc corridor. A bunch of children are waiting for the waiter to make ice cream balls in front of the freezer, all of them are greedy. meaning.
Manzhi walked around the food table and the crowd, and then successfully found the restroom arranged in the center of the axis.Close the door casually, and at the same time isolate the hustle and bustle of the crowd from the door.
She stood in the small attic room, facing the dark blue and cold tiles, breathing greedily, as if she wanted to replenish all the oxygen that was lost throughout the night, even though this place is actually not suitable for supplementing oxygen .
It wasn't until this time that I realized that I was already weak all over. I had to suppress the tension in my heart and show a relaxed demeanor, which was no easier than acting in a play.
Perhaps, Chang Shaohui is right, this city is too small, and there are narrow roads everywhere.
I don't know how long she stood there, but she realized that she couldn't stay any longer, so she unlocked the door, pushed the door out, checked her makeup by the sink, and re-inspired herself, even if it was singing, she had to wait until the curtain ended before revealing herself .
Turning around and leaving the bathroom, she stopped short of walking far, and at the corner, Shao Yun was waiting for her with arms folded.After being stunned for two seconds, she panicked and turned around to try to escape, but before she could walk steadily, her hand was firmly grasped by him.
"We have to talk." He couldn't help but grab her and drag her towards the elevator.
Manzhi grabbed a certain door frame with her free hand in time, resisted it with all her strength and refused to move half a step, and said in a low voice, "I'm not going anywhere, just say what you have to say here."
Shao Yun turned to stare at her, and said angrily, "You don't want me to kiss you in front of him, do you?"
Manzhi let go of her hand in an instant, she knew he could do it.
The high-speed elevator was going down quickly, and Manzhi only felt a buzzing pain in her ears, and Shao Yun's hand was still tightly gripped, and it had already started to go numb.
She was a little unable to control her emotions, and her voice trembled slightly when she spoke, "You said you would stop interfering with me!"
He stood side by side with her, and the stainless steel elevator door opposite could clearly reflect the figures of the two of them. He looked at her angry face inside and said quietly: "Other things can be discussed, but this one is not." .”
She even started to tremble, and lowered her voice tremblingly: "You are a complete bastard! Villain! You...you break the agreement between us again and again, you don't understand what is Credit!"
Shao Yun smiled nonchalantly, "I never said I was a gentleman. Being a gentleman is too tiring. I just want to get what I want, and I don't care about the rest!"
Manzhi couldn't bear it anymore and broke out, "What do you want? Do you have to give it to you? Have you ever considered other people's feelings?! Have you ever asked me if I want it?!"
She blushed and yelled incoherently, feeling that she was going to be driven crazy by him, he was everywhere, interfering with her in every pervasive way, from outside to inside.
He pulled her into his arms fiercely, bowed his head, and kissed her fiercely, swallowing all her angry questions.
He was as angry as she was, and he tried hard time and time again to win her back, but nothing but failure!
His kisses are always so non-negotiable and savagely given, no matter how Manzhi dodges, she can't refuse to accept it. Suddenly, the trembling feeling rises from the bottom of her heart... Unable to think, even almost stopped breathing, she Almost limp in his arms.
Manzhi suddenly felt desperate, why every time she wanted to stay away from him, she always got closer?
There was a light sound of the elevator, and the door opened gracefully. The chatting guests outside the door stopped talking and were about to go in. When they suddenly saw the lingering two people, they all stopped. laugh.
Shao Yun finally let go of Manzhi, took her hand and walked out calmly under the watchful eyes of everyone.
There are people everywhere on the street, and there is no clean place. Manzhi is held by him, and she shuttles through the bustling crowd, passing the display windows of the shopping mall, passing the beef noodle stalls, and passing the deafening audio-visual shops. This chaotic world is just as chaotic, and it is impossible to make sense of it.
She didn't know where he was taking her, and she stumbled after him, the weakness in her body still not gone.
But the roots of her ears gradually cleared up, as if she had entered a community, she couldn't move anymore, so she squatted down suddenly.
Shao Yun couldn't move her, so he frowned, leaned down and looked at her face carefully, "Are you sober?"
She continued to squat regardless of her image, begging sadly, "Shao Yun, I beg you, just let me go." Her face was full of weakness, and she no longer dared to pretend to be strong in front of him .
He straightened up, remained silent for a long time, and finally asked coldly: "Is this your final choice?"
She also stood up, slightly dizzy, and almost forgot where she was, but she still nodded.
He let go of her, put his hand into his trouser pocket, his voice was low and hoarse, "You can give him a chance, why don't you give me a chance?"
Manzhi smiled wryly, "It was a mistake for me to be with you."
"Wrong?" He repeated the word in a low voice, and then stared at her again. Under the dim light, her face could not be seen clearly, and it seemed to be a bit miserable.
Six years of hardships flowed through each other's hearts at the same time.
He sighed, "Manzhi, is 'right' or 'wrong' so important to you?"
He didn't need her answer, and continued slowly: "Back then, you thought it was a mistake for Manqi to follow me, so you could ignore her choice and insist on breaking us apart; later, you felt that taking care of Mengmeng was the only thing you could do. The right thing for you, you endured humiliation and stayed by my side for six years; now, you feel that Chang Shaohui is the most suitable person for you, so you can turn around and leave me behind no matter how much I love you ...Manzhi, you are always doing what you think is 'right', have you ever thought about respecting your true inner feelings to choose?"
Manzhi is actually very tired, she can't even speak, but she understands that she can't be silent, she already has a new direction, she can't live up to Chang Shaohui, and she can't live up to her long-standing wish.
She heard her weak voice rebuttal weakly, "I really love him."
Shao Yun stared at her with his eyes wide open, and said word by word: "You--ly-ly!"
"I don't! I don't!" She shook her head, confirming with him and herself over and over again.
He got closer to her, and Manzhi was forced to look up at him, his face was still shrouded in darkness, blurry, only those breathtaking eyes, the gel that seemed to be angry but still painful was on her face. face.
It was these eyes that tormented her for six whole years. She loved and hated them before, but now she wants to get rid of them, but she can't get them!
"Is it okay to do things regardless of right or wrong?" She murmured, "Shao Yun, if you hadn't provoked Manqi seven years ago, maybe everyone would have a good life today, and Manqi would not die... I can realize my ideal... You can also continue your free life... Tell me, isn't it your fault first?" She closed her eyes, infinite tiredness welled up in her heart, and they argued How many years have passed, why are you still entangled in this mud?
She shook her head and said: "No, I don't want to talk about these old things with you. Whether it's right or wrong, it's all in the past. Whether you call me stupid or stubborn, in short, when it comes to this point, I'm already in the past." I don't have any other requirements, I just want a stable and peaceful life. I hope I can live a good life in the future..." She said the following words clearly, "It's the same as before I met you...You, you can't Satisfy me?"
There were tears in her eyes, she was begging him!
Shao Yun's heart ached like it was being torn apart. It turned out that he hurt her so deeply that he could no longer bring her back!
But the more so, the more he couldn't let her go!He can't stand her leaving him with resentment!
He grabbed her shoulders hard, not knowing what to do to make her see her heart clearly.
"Manzhi, I understand that I have made you suffer too much in the past, and you have been hating me... Even if you want revenge, I have no complaints, but don't do it this way, okay? I admit, I am selfish, Domineering, sometimes very muddy, but I want you to know that no one in this world loves you more than me!"
Manzhi's nose was sour, and there was heat coming out, she kept enduring it.
He hugged her tightly and begged again, "Come back to me, okay? Come back and torture me severely, and let me pay off all the debts I owe you for the past six years, as long as you come back!"
She cried softly in his arms, the sound cut Shao Yun's heart like a saw, he hugged her tightly, wishing he could embed her into his body!
Her crying gradually became louder and finally became uncontrollable, as if she had lost any other instincts other than crying, unable to think, and did not know what to say.
She didn't understand, who pushed her into such a dilemma, Chang Shaohui?Shao Yun?Or herself?
Chang Shaohui stood in front of the window for a long time, and several colleagues from the Shaw Brothers came over to chat with him one after another, but they dispersed one by one, only he remained standing.
Kong Lingyi walked up to him, looked at the night full of flowers, and said softly: "They... probably won't come back."
He was slightly stunned, then fell silent, raised his cup, and took a big sip, the pure natural papaya juice was a bit astringent.
Kong Lingyi was surprised by his composure, "You don't seem to be worried at all."
He finally said, "On the contrary, I actually have no confidence." He turned his head, looked into her surprised eyes, and asked, "What do you think I should do? Chase me out and fight Shao Yun?"
Kong Lingyi wanted to laugh, but although his tone was relaxed, his face was suffocated, so she couldn't laugh.
His tone was still soft, but a little cold, "The legs grow on her body, no one can control it."
Kong Lingyi was speechless, and it took a long time before he sighed softly and said: "Many times, we always think that the person we meet is right, and after tossing around, we find out that's not the case."
Chang Shaohui looked down at the somewhat cloudy liquid in his cup, "Are you talking about me?"
"No, I'm talking about myself."
They are all smart people, and there is no need to say much about some things, as they already understand each other in their hearts.
He pondered for a moment before saying: "You are right, but how do we know whether we are right or wrong when we are in it? Only by trying will we understand."
He turned sideways, facing her, and said with determination and affirmation: "I don't want to give up any possibility, so I want to try once."
He instantly relaxed, and joked a little, "You don't need to rush away, you might still have a chance if you stay." "What?" Kong Lingyi looked at him in confusion.
"I... will take Manzhi out of here."
Kong Lingyi was stunned, and said after a while: "You may not succeed."
Chang Shaohui laughed dryly, and let out a long breath, "At least I tried, if I really lose, I have nothing to say—I'm willing to bet and admit defeat."
(End of this chapter)
Already at the elevator entrance, Manzhi said goodbye to Chang Shaohui, but he refused to let go of her hand, and said with a smile: "It's all here, let's go up and sit for a while, anyway, it's still early."
Manzhi couldn't help but laugh, it turns out that a man in love is also very clingy, even though he is as refined as Chang Shaohui, she obediently followed him into the elevator.
He lived on the 12th floor, and when he got out of the elevator, she let him hold hands and walk all the way on the gorgeous carved carpet.The aisle was surprisingly quiet, and Manzhi felt a little nervous for some reason.
After entering the door, Chang Shaohui first handed her a bottle of water, and then asked, "Do you want tea? To drink tea, you need to boil water."
Manzhi quickly waved her hand and said, "Don't bother me, I'll just sit down for a while and leave."
The hotel is very close to the urban area. She stands at the window and overlooks the brightly lit city. All the buildings that can be seen clearly are decorated with neon lights. The colorful outlines are as dreamy and unreal as fairy tales. However, it is beautiful.
When Chang Shaohui hugged her from behind, her body still trembled, she instinctively wanted to dodge, then, realizing something, she stopped immediately.
She understands that this is a part that every couple should go through, and what she has to accept is not just the warmth of his palm.
But the unreasonable tension in the aisle just now hit her nerves intensified now, even though his movements were submissive, she couldn't relax.
Chang Shaohui kissed very skillfully, there was no sudden intrusion, but it was lingering and lasting.
There was a faint scent of sandalwood like breath, so close, his eyes were just above her, the dark pupils were suddenly magnified several times, swallowed up endlessly, she hurriedly closed her eyes.
She was amazed at her sobriety, she could feel every subtle movement of him, how his hands supported the back of her head, how the tip of his tongue opened her teeth...
She even had a very strange idea, so kissing is like this!
When Shao Yun kissed her in the past, which time was it not thrilling?So much so that when she thought about it afterwards, her mind was always in chaos, unable to grasp any real essence, only the feeling of trembling lingered all over her body.
Manzhi couldn't express exactly how she felt at this moment, she just let herself get used to the intimacy with Chang Shaohui—a tenderness completely different from Shao Yun.
Chang Shaohui's hands became hotter and hotter, gradually moving down from the back of her head, trying to break through her bottom line, Manzhi's ears gradually became hot and her heart beat, her body froze again.
His breathing was right next to her ear, and at this moment it was rapid and violent, and the strength in his hand also increased a bit.
She felt that she shouldn't refuse, after all, she was not innocent, he was a good lover, and they would get married in the future...
But she suddenly became afraid, this man who was entangled with her suddenly became so strange, who is he?
Without thinking too much, she pushed him away with all her might.
Chang Shaohui's misty eyes were suddenly covered with haze, he stood still, staring at Manzhi in a daze.
"I'm sorry." Manzhi bowed her head guiltily and whispered softly, like a child who did something wrong, she knew it shouldn't be like this, but she couldn't control herself.
She thought he would be angry, but he only smiled wryly twice, then approached her, raised his hand pitifully to smooth out the messy hair on her forehead, and said softly: "It's okay, we can... Take your time."
Originally, he wanted to use a straightforward method to completely dispel her remaining hesitation and make her completely his own, but she was obviously frightened.
He sighed in his heart. After all, he was not used to winning by plundering, even if it was a woman he liked very much.
When she got home, Manzhi's mind was still full and she couldn't think of anything.
She threw off her shoes, handbags and all the cumbersome things, and went to the bathroom to take a hot bath to relax her overly tense nerves. When she finally collapsed on the bed, she was completely relaxed.
There seemed to be a lot of twists and turns happening all at once tonight, and she had to calm down and think about it, digesting it carefully.
To the United States? !
When Manzhi was still a student, she often heard this fresh and attractive word mentioned in the college, but at that time, she dared not expect to go abroad. For those students who could make the trip, she not only showed a little envy, but also There is no other idea, after all, it is too far away.
But now, Chang Shaohui actually sent her such an invitation.
"After arriving in the United States, you can do nothing, go on a trip, or be a full-time wife at home; if you feel bored, I can help you find something easy to do...Of course, you can also choose to go to school Read books, and in short, do whatever you like."
The blueprint he drew for Manzhi still attracted her, and those beautiful dreams that had been drifting away suddenly became within reach, and she was as happy as if she suddenly found a treasure, but she seemed a little unable to bear it.
From now on, can she really live so happily?
Chang Shaohui was right, what she couldn't pass was the test in her heart.
After walking so far, if she misses her family and children, what should she do?
However, what Chang Shaohui said made sense. If she continued to stay in this city, she would never be able to get along with Shao Yun. They would eventually become mutual interference, and no one could start over.
Therefore, since she has no intention of getting back together with him, she has no choice but to completely cut off the way out.
As for Mengmeng, in a few years, when she grows up, she will understand Manzhi's choice. Besides, there are many variables in the future, for example, Shao Yun will remarry, for example, Mengmeng can go to study abroad...
Manzhi found that no matter what kind of thought she had, she could quote a passage from Chang Shaohui to give a reasonable answer, and he knew her hesitation well.
When her eyelids gradually became heavy, she felt that she was gradually able to accept and adapt to his thinking.
Starting a brand-new life will always cause various discomfort symptoms at first, but Manzhi doesn't want to avoid it anymore. Life is short, and she doesn't have much time for herself to squander and swing.
In any case, this time, she really planned to start over...
Manzhi had a dream overnight, many messy fragments about the past, sister, Shao Yun, Mengmeng, everyone stretched out their hands to her, she turned her face away, at the other end was Chang Shaohui's expectant gaze, he stood The top of the cloud whispered to her, "Manzhi, come with me, don't look back..."
She stood in the middle, in a dilemma, unable to give up on both sides. While she was struggling, there was a harsh sound of gongs in her ears. She felt that she had something to say to Chang Shaohui, so she tried to raise her head and shouted at him, but suddenly found that , he has disappeared...
She was sweating from startle, and woke up in a daze. There was some voice that kept ringing, conveyed from reality to dream, waking her up.
The mobile phone on the cabinet kept flickering. She brushed her slightly damp hair and turned the alarm clock to see that it was only 04:30 in the morning. Who would choose such a time to call her, she must be crazy, or... out What's the matter? !
She jumped up in a jerk, and before she could turn on the desk lamp, she grabbed the phone in her hand.
She was surprised by the jumping prompt on the screen, it was actually Shao Yun!
This lunatic!
It was the darkest hour before dawn, and she just woke up from a frightening dream, only feeling powerless, "What happened?"
"Manzhi!" Shao Yun's tone was cheerful and excited, "I'm sorry to wake you up! I have good news to tell you - all the molds just opened are up to standard, and they are actually produced by Shao CM mold!"
His excited tone instantly colored her, and she also smiled in the dark, "Really? That's really great!"
He nodded heavily, completely forgetting that she couldn't see at all. The boulder that had weighed on his heart for a long time can finally be removed. This step is so smooth, and it is so difficult!
He knew that Manzhi was also happy, and he could feel that no matter what it was, he hoped to share it with her as soon as possible.
Kong Lingyi also didn't close her eyes all night, and she stood silently at the door, listening to him happily describing a tense experience to someone on the other end of the phone. She knew who it was, but she didn't even feel sad. Can't get up.
Shao Yun finally hung up the phone satisfied, turned around, only to notice that Kong Lingyi had been standing in the office for a long time.
In her hand was a stack of thick paper, and she handed it to him with a smile, "I just came from Old Lu, and this is the latest test data - very beautiful!"
Shao Yun took it over, smiled at her, and flipped through the pages one by one, with a deeper smile on his face.
At the bottom was an envelope. He put the data on the table, raised the envelope and asked her in surprise, "What is it?" Kong Lingyi smiled and said, "I should have given it to you a long time ago." Yes, my... resignation letter."
Shao Yun was stunned for a moment, but soon recovered to his natural state, as if he had expected it, and asked with a smile: "Why, are you tired of being in Shao's?"
She actually wanted to leave earlier, but Shao Yun has been facing difficulties and she couldn't open her mouth. Now that she finally has a turning point, she doesn't want to continue to torture herself.
The sooner you leave, the sooner you will be relieved.
She didn't deny it, nodded and said lightly: "Yes, after staying in one place for a long time, I will feel lazy. A classmate of mine opened a company in the United States and invited me to help out a while ago. I think it suits me , so I agreed."
She wasn't telling the truth.
In fact, Shao Yun and Dai Yifang have always maintained close contact. He knew that he had recently set up his own family, and he also mentioned to himself that he wanted to invite Kong Lingyi to come over.
However, since she didn't want to mention it, it was inconvenient for Shao Yun to point it out. Although it was regrettable to lose an assistant, he was really happy for her.At least, she is willing to get out of the haze of the past and try to get in touch with new people and life, which is a good sign after all.
Manzhi ended all her experience in the past few years in a few words. She spoke extremely concisely, but Fang Zhuyun was still so shocked that she couldn't keep her mouth shut for a long time.
"I really didn't expect your marriage to be so... miserable!" Fang Zhuyun sighed, "Manzhi, what you have gone through is enough to write a book!" Her voice quickly lowered a little, staring at Manzhi asked: "So, are you determined to leave with Chang Shaohui?"
Manzhi supported her face, looked down at the clear outline of her face reflected on the glass table, her brows seemed to be knotted, and she asked gloomily, "Do you think it's wrong for me to do this?"
Fang Zhuyun calmed down now, "It's useless for you to ask me! This matter is up to you—it depends on who you have in your heart?"
This is by far the most tangled problem for Manzhi, if she can distinguish clearly, she won't be so troubled.
Fang Zhuyun's seriousness can only be maintained for a few minutes, so she couldn't help laughing and said at this time: "You don't like both of them, haha, I really can't see that the upright girl back then wants to step on two boats now! Hey, It’s better to forget about the tribe that sent you to Africa, monogamy and two husbands are normal.”
Annoyed, Manzhi picked up the small coffee spoon and tapped it on the back of her hand, "No matter what you say, you are out of shape."
Fang Zhuyun didn't like her, and continued to tease, "But having said that, I really didn't expect Chang Shaohui to fall in love with you." Seeing that Manzhi's face was not very good-looking, she immediately said: "Hey, don't worry, I will I don't mean to belittle you, but that guy seems to have an emotional cleanliness, and you are a second marriage... Hey, but who knows what's going on now, as long as one of you is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, hehe! "
Manzhi was made more erratic by what she said, and murmured: "Yeah, I also think he is too good, I really don't know what he likes in me? Sometimes I think...he is like the moon in the water, as if It’s right in front of your eyes, but you can’t actually get it at all.”
Fang Zhuyun looked at her expression from left to right, "Are you inferior? Or—are you reluctant to part with your repentant ex-husband?" Manzhi gave her a blank look, "Are you trying to mess with me?"
Fang Zhuyun happily took two sips of fruit juice, then raised her head suddenly, and said with a serious expression: "It's easy to say."
Manzhi looked at her expectantly.
"You must answer my questions honestly."
"Okay, you say."
"Do you still want to go back to the old days?"
Manzhi hesitated for a moment, but still shook her head, "Of course not." Otherwise, why would she get divorced!
Fang Zhuyun slapped the table, "That's over, choosing a new partner and starting a new life is your best choice! Although I always say that Chang Shaohui is wrong, but in my conscience, he is indeed a good man, honest, Clever and without any bad habits, she is a rare spouse!"
Seeing that Manzhi was still frowning, Fang Zhuyun smiled and sighed: "Oh, I have seen it through. Sometimes having too many choices may not be a good thing! I think you are worried!"
Manzhi raised her eyebrows suddenly, her eyes sparkled and she said: "Who says I'm worried, I've already made up my mind?!"
"To the United States?"
"Yes! Go to America!"
Manzhi found a suitable time to bring this matter up to her family, but unexpectedly they were very supportive, and Su Jinbao was especially happy.He always thought that his most beloved little daughter had been delayed by Shao Yun all her life, so that she became depressed and sick. He didn't expect that there would be a day when things would turn around.After he saw Chang Shaohui, needless to say, he was satisfied and relieved, as if most of his illness had gone away.
Once the decision was made, Manzhi stopped thinking about it and concentrated on acting.So she became busy all of a sudden, she had never been abroad, so she had to get a passport and a visa as soon as possible. Fortunately, Chang Shaohui was there to help.But the review to the United States is really troublesome. All the materials have been handed in, and the next step is to wait.
Chang Shaohui was supposed to go back in a week, but after looking at the current situation, he applied for an extension with the headquarters and stayed to wait for Manzhi.Science and Technology's new product development is also in progress, and if he doesn't leave, the R&D team is simply wishing for it.
The days were much easier than before. In the evening, he stopped working overtime, went to the flower shop to find Manzhi early, and then spent the whole night.
Manzhi is also gradually getting used to getting along with Chang Shaohui. This is not a difficult task. For her, the rare thing is how to face Shao Yun and Mengmeng.
Shao Yun would still call her from time to time, and sometimes ask her out, but she would always refuse for one reason or another. Fortunately, he was also busy and had no time to go around with her.
It doesn't matter if she is timid or cowardly, she just doesn't have the courage to tell Shao Yun her decision, she vaguely understands that if she lets him know, maybe she will never be able to leave again.
Only Mengmeng, every time they met, Manzhi would snap her fingers, counting the fewer and fewer days when the two of them got together, she couldn't stop feeling uncomfortable, she had to constantly give herself psychological training to restrain the occasional Thoughts of regret came to mind.
Facing Chang Shaohui's wholehearted waiting, how could she have the heart to let her down?
In a blink of an eye, half a month has passed, and the weather is getting hotter, and it is gradually turning into midsummer.
Manzhi got the passport first, and according to Chang Shaohui, the visa will be issued soon. He entrusted the company's colleagues to help, which is much more convenient and quicker than Manzhi's own application.
On the night of getting the visa, the two agreed to go to the newly opened Konjac Buffet Western Restaurant to have a small celebration.
This restaurant is located on the top floor of one of the tallest buildings in the city center, so when it comes to dining, more people go for the night view.
The two walked in arm in arm, talking and laughing. The waiter was kind and polite, and led them to the double seat by the window. It wasn't too early. The angle of view here was a bit off, but it was acceptable.
There are a lot of people dining, and they are close to the bar, and there is an endless stream of customers taking drinks.While drinking tea, I heard someone shout in surprise, "Mr. Chang!"
So the seven or eight people sitting diagonally opposite all looked over, and Chang Shaohui had no choice but to stand up and say hello, "What a coincidence, it turned out to be Lu Gong!"
Lao Lu shook hands with Chang Shaohui enthusiastically, and the success of CM profiles suddenly shortened the distance between them, and they had long since settled down.Looking at Manzhi, he became a little cautious, not knowing how to greet him properly, so he smiled and nodded in general.
When Shao Yun walked over, Manzhi became obviously unnatural.
His complexion was unpredictable, and there was a hint of sullenness in his smile, but it was well concealed, almost undetectable, but Manzhi still felt a little apprehensive.
Fortunately, he didn't have any outrageous behavior, he just exchanged a few words with Chang Shaohui, and didn't even look at Manzhi.
"It turns out that Mr. Chang hasn't left yet. If that's the case, it's time to come to Shao's for a while." Shao Yun held his cup and spoke enthusiastically.
Chang Shaohui said a few polite words, caught sight of Kong Lingyi standing behind Shao Yun, smiled and nodded at her, "Miss Kong, I haven't seen you for a while."
Shao Yun turned his head to look at her, and said with a smile, "You two will have more chances to meet each other in the future, and Ling Yi is going to America soon."
Chang Shaohui raised his eyebrows, and said in surprise: "Really? I haven't heard Miss Kong mention it before. Why, Director Shao wants to send Miss Kong to work..."
Shao Yun laughed loudly and said, "Shaw's tentacles haven't grown enough to reach the United States..." His voice sank suddenly, "Ling Yi is leaving Shao's, and we have dinner here today to give her a farewell farewell."
Chang Shaohui understood, but still couldn't hide his astonishment. He had already guessed a little bit about Kong Lingyi's thoughts, but he didn't expect that she would choose to quit at this time.
After chatting for a few words, everyone returned to everyone. The hustle and bustle a few minutes ago dissipated like the white mist on the glass in winter.
Chang Shaohui could feel Manzhi's abnormality, and the enthusiastic conversation just now did not affect her, so she remained silent, and has remained silent till now.
"There are so many people here, do we want to - change the place?" He pretended to be nonchalant and asked considerately.
She shook her head and sipped her tea, but couldn't taste it.
Chang Shaohui thought about it for a while, and felt that if it came, it would be safe, and escaping was not the way, so he smiled and asked, "What do you want to eat? I'll get it for you."
Manzhi raised her head, his eyes were full of encouragement, she suddenly resented herself for being worthless, yes, there is nothing to be afraid of, even if Shao Yun is here, so what?She is free.
So she smiled back and said, "No, I can do it myself."
She went out "bravely" to pick up plates and choose food. However, no matter where she went, she could always feel the eyes of the double genitals following her. She forced herself to ignore it and be calm.
Shao Yun sipped his beer slowly and hardly ate anything. The others went out to get food frequently, stood by the window to watch the scenery, and chatted.
Kong Lingyi came back with two plates of fruit salad, handed one in front of Shao Yun, and followed his gaze. Manzhi was hesitating in front of a row of sushi, as if thinking about which variety would be more delicious.
"You don't seem happy?" She blinked her eyes.
Shao Yun raised his eyebrows, "Is there any?" His eyes still stayed on Manzhi.
Kong Lingyi was already staying out of the matter at this time, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Chang Shaohui is not your opponent."
Shao Yun suddenly heard her say this, and unconsciously glanced at her, she was indeed alert, and could clearly see the facial expressions of the three of them.
He squinted at Kong Lingyi, and said in a low voice, "It's not a good thing for a girl to be too smart."
Kong Lingyi deliberately distorted his meaning, "Are you talking about Su Manzhi?"
"Her?" Shao Yun snorted coldly, "She just thinks she's smart."
Kong Lingyi nodded earnestly, "Oh, I see, you mean me—okay, I will learn to pretend to be confused in the future."
Shao Yun looked at her again and suddenly burst out laughing.
Manzhi felt full after not eating much. Chang Shaohui brought back various fruit juices and vegetable juices and explained the benefits one by one. Manzhi was a little dizzy. When did he become a nutrition expert?
She drank so much fluid without realizing it, she had to get up to go to the bathroom.
Chang Shaohui took a glass of drink and walked towards the window. Looking down from the 48th floor, the whole city seemed to be submerged in a bottomless black sea, and there were stars shining faintly, which seemed somewhat mysterious.
The restaurant has a circular layout, the outermost circle is a transparent viewing glass window, and a variety of food is displayed in the arc corridor. A bunch of children are waiting for the waiter to make ice cream balls in front of the freezer, all of them are greedy. meaning.
Manzhi walked around the food table and the crowd, and then successfully found the restroom arranged in the center of the axis.Close the door casually, and at the same time isolate the hustle and bustle of the crowd from the door.
She stood in the small attic room, facing the dark blue and cold tiles, breathing greedily, as if she wanted to replenish all the oxygen that was lost throughout the night, even though this place is actually not suitable for supplementing oxygen .
It wasn't until this time that I realized that I was already weak all over. I had to suppress the tension in my heart and show a relaxed demeanor, which was no easier than acting in a play.
Perhaps, Chang Shaohui is right, this city is too small, and there are narrow roads everywhere.
I don't know how long she stood there, but she realized that she couldn't stay any longer, so she unlocked the door, pushed the door out, checked her makeup by the sink, and re-inspired herself, even if it was singing, she had to wait until the curtain ended before revealing herself .
Turning around and leaving the bathroom, she stopped short of walking far, and at the corner, Shao Yun was waiting for her with arms folded.After being stunned for two seconds, she panicked and turned around to try to escape, but before she could walk steadily, her hand was firmly grasped by him.
"We have to talk." He couldn't help but grab her and drag her towards the elevator.
Manzhi grabbed a certain door frame with her free hand in time, resisted it with all her strength and refused to move half a step, and said in a low voice, "I'm not going anywhere, just say what you have to say here."
Shao Yun turned to stare at her, and said angrily, "You don't want me to kiss you in front of him, do you?"
Manzhi let go of her hand in an instant, she knew he could do it.
The high-speed elevator was going down quickly, and Manzhi only felt a buzzing pain in her ears, and Shao Yun's hand was still tightly gripped, and it had already started to go numb.
She was a little unable to control her emotions, and her voice trembled slightly when she spoke, "You said you would stop interfering with me!"
He stood side by side with her, and the stainless steel elevator door opposite could clearly reflect the figures of the two of them. He looked at her angry face inside and said quietly: "Other things can be discussed, but this one is not." .”
She even started to tremble, and lowered her voice tremblingly: "You are a complete bastard! Villain! You...you break the agreement between us again and again, you don't understand what is Credit!"
Shao Yun smiled nonchalantly, "I never said I was a gentleman. Being a gentleman is too tiring. I just want to get what I want, and I don't care about the rest!"
Manzhi couldn't bear it anymore and broke out, "What do you want? Do you have to give it to you? Have you ever considered other people's feelings?! Have you ever asked me if I want it?!"
She blushed and yelled incoherently, feeling that she was going to be driven crazy by him, he was everywhere, interfering with her in every pervasive way, from outside to inside.
He pulled her into his arms fiercely, bowed his head, and kissed her fiercely, swallowing all her angry questions.
He was as angry as she was, and he tried hard time and time again to win her back, but nothing but failure!
His kisses are always so non-negotiable and savagely given, no matter how Manzhi dodges, she can't refuse to accept it. Suddenly, the trembling feeling rises from the bottom of her heart... Unable to think, even almost stopped breathing, she Almost limp in his arms.
Manzhi suddenly felt desperate, why every time she wanted to stay away from him, she always got closer?
There was a light sound of the elevator, and the door opened gracefully. The chatting guests outside the door stopped talking and were about to go in. When they suddenly saw the lingering two people, they all stopped. laugh.
Shao Yun finally let go of Manzhi, took her hand and walked out calmly under the watchful eyes of everyone.
There are people everywhere on the street, and there is no clean place. Manzhi is held by him, and she shuttles through the bustling crowd, passing the display windows of the shopping mall, passing the beef noodle stalls, and passing the deafening audio-visual shops. This chaotic world is just as chaotic, and it is impossible to make sense of it.
She didn't know where he was taking her, and she stumbled after him, the weakness in her body still not gone.
But the roots of her ears gradually cleared up, as if she had entered a community, she couldn't move anymore, so she squatted down suddenly.
Shao Yun couldn't move her, so he frowned, leaned down and looked at her face carefully, "Are you sober?"
She continued to squat regardless of her image, begging sadly, "Shao Yun, I beg you, just let me go." Her face was full of weakness, and she no longer dared to pretend to be strong in front of him .
He straightened up, remained silent for a long time, and finally asked coldly: "Is this your final choice?"
She also stood up, slightly dizzy, and almost forgot where she was, but she still nodded.
He let go of her, put his hand into his trouser pocket, his voice was low and hoarse, "You can give him a chance, why don't you give me a chance?"
Manzhi smiled wryly, "It was a mistake for me to be with you."
"Wrong?" He repeated the word in a low voice, and then stared at her again. Under the dim light, her face could not be seen clearly, and it seemed to be a bit miserable.
Six years of hardships flowed through each other's hearts at the same time.
He sighed, "Manzhi, is 'right' or 'wrong' so important to you?"
He didn't need her answer, and continued slowly: "Back then, you thought it was a mistake for Manqi to follow me, so you could ignore her choice and insist on breaking us apart; later, you felt that taking care of Mengmeng was the only thing you could do. The right thing for you, you endured humiliation and stayed by my side for six years; now, you feel that Chang Shaohui is the most suitable person for you, so you can turn around and leave me behind no matter how much I love you ...Manzhi, you are always doing what you think is 'right', have you ever thought about respecting your true inner feelings to choose?"
Manzhi is actually very tired, she can't even speak, but she understands that she can't be silent, she already has a new direction, she can't live up to Chang Shaohui, and she can't live up to her long-standing wish.
She heard her weak voice rebuttal weakly, "I really love him."
Shao Yun stared at her with his eyes wide open, and said word by word: "You--ly-ly!"
"I don't! I don't!" She shook her head, confirming with him and herself over and over again.
He got closer to her, and Manzhi was forced to look up at him, his face was still shrouded in darkness, blurry, only those breathtaking eyes, the gel that seemed to be angry but still painful was on her face. face.
It was these eyes that tormented her for six whole years. She loved and hated them before, but now she wants to get rid of them, but she can't get them!
"Is it okay to do things regardless of right or wrong?" She murmured, "Shao Yun, if you hadn't provoked Manqi seven years ago, maybe everyone would have a good life today, and Manqi would not die... I can realize my ideal... You can also continue your free life... Tell me, isn't it your fault first?" She closed her eyes, infinite tiredness welled up in her heart, and they argued How many years have passed, why are you still entangled in this mud?
She shook her head and said: "No, I don't want to talk about these old things with you. Whether it's right or wrong, it's all in the past. Whether you call me stupid or stubborn, in short, when it comes to this point, I'm already in the past." I don't have any other requirements, I just want a stable and peaceful life. I hope I can live a good life in the future..." She said the following words clearly, "It's the same as before I met you...You, you can't Satisfy me?"
There were tears in her eyes, she was begging him!
Shao Yun's heart ached like it was being torn apart. It turned out that he hurt her so deeply that he could no longer bring her back!
But the more so, the more he couldn't let her go!He can't stand her leaving him with resentment!
He grabbed her shoulders hard, not knowing what to do to make her see her heart clearly.
"Manzhi, I understand that I have made you suffer too much in the past, and you have been hating me... Even if you want revenge, I have no complaints, but don't do it this way, okay? I admit, I am selfish, Domineering, sometimes very muddy, but I want you to know that no one in this world loves you more than me!"
Manzhi's nose was sour, and there was heat coming out, she kept enduring it.
He hugged her tightly and begged again, "Come back to me, okay? Come back and torture me severely, and let me pay off all the debts I owe you for the past six years, as long as you come back!"
She cried softly in his arms, the sound cut Shao Yun's heart like a saw, he hugged her tightly, wishing he could embed her into his body!
Her crying gradually became louder and finally became uncontrollable, as if she had lost any other instincts other than crying, unable to think, and did not know what to say.
She didn't understand, who pushed her into such a dilemma, Chang Shaohui?Shao Yun?Or herself?
Chang Shaohui stood in front of the window for a long time, and several colleagues from the Shaw Brothers came over to chat with him one after another, but they dispersed one by one, only he remained standing.
Kong Lingyi walked up to him, looked at the night full of flowers, and said softly: "They... probably won't come back."
He was slightly stunned, then fell silent, raised his cup, and took a big sip, the pure natural papaya juice was a bit astringent.
Kong Lingyi was surprised by his composure, "You don't seem to be worried at all."
He finally said, "On the contrary, I actually have no confidence." He turned his head, looked into her surprised eyes, and asked, "What do you think I should do? Chase me out and fight Shao Yun?"
Kong Lingyi wanted to laugh, but although his tone was relaxed, his face was suffocated, so she couldn't laugh.
His tone was still soft, but a little cold, "The legs grow on her body, no one can control it."
Kong Lingyi was speechless, and it took a long time before he sighed softly and said: "Many times, we always think that the person we meet is right, and after tossing around, we find out that's not the case."
Chang Shaohui looked down at the somewhat cloudy liquid in his cup, "Are you talking about me?"
"No, I'm talking about myself."
They are all smart people, and there is no need to say much about some things, as they already understand each other in their hearts.
He pondered for a moment before saying: "You are right, but how do we know whether we are right or wrong when we are in it? Only by trying will we understand."
He turned sideways, facing her, and said with determination and affirmation: "I don't want to give up any possibility, so I want to try once."
He instantly relaxed, and joked a little, "You don't need to rush away, you might still have a chance if you stay." "What?" Kong Lingyi looked at him in confusion.
"I... will take Manzhi out of here."
Kong Lingyi was stunned, and said after a while: "You may not succeed."
Chang Shaohui laughed dryly, and let out a long breath, "At least I tried, if I really lose, I have nothing to say—I'm willing to bet and admit defeat."
