My boss betrayed me

"I feel sad." Nangong Yue said, handing Bai Fang's background information to Liuli.

Liuli was silent for a moment after reading it, and then said, "Ayue, I feel bad too. I've always known that you have too many things on your mind, but I can't help you much."

Nangong Yue sighed: "Liuli, you have helped me a lot, but the situation this time is too complicated."

There was a hint of disappointment in Liuli's eyes: "Ayue, sometimes I feel that you always push me away and don't want me to really enter your heart."

Nangong Yue was a little surprised: "Liuli, I didn't mean that, I just don't want you to be involved in these troubles."

Liuli raised her voice: "But we are good sisters, shouldn't we share happiness and difficulties together?"

The two fell into a brief silence, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

After a while, Liuli broke the silence: "Forget it, let's not talk about this. Let's go to the Barton Hotel first, and we can discuss other things slowly after we come back. I hope that the auspicious aura I carry with me can be effective tonight."

So the two of them went downstairs together.

Rome is brightly lit at night, and there is a mysterious atmosphere between luxury and antiquity. Being in this magnificent and prosperous metropolis, one feels that one has a lot, but also feels extremely poor.

In the car, Liuli asked, "How are we going to solve the problem of dinner? Do you want to make it yourself or go for a splurge? I see that you are in a bad mood, how about we go for a splurge?"

Nangong Yue said: "After we finish our work, let's go to a high-end restaurant and have some drinks. First, we can welcome you back, and second, we can show off our power as a hero."

"The Oriental heroine." Liuli said with a laugh.

The car stopped at the door of the Patton Hotel. Liuli made a cross on her chest, prayed secretly that this time it would be successful, and then accompanied Nangong Yue into the restaurant. There were about twenty guests in the restaurant. Shi Tianwen's son stood on the inside of the business counter, and Shi Tianwen's wife was not there.

Shi Tianwen's son already knew Nangong Yue, and he walked into the inner room without waiting for them to talk.

After a while, the old British woman came out. When she saw Nangong Yue, she was not moved at all, but looked indifferent. What Nangong Yue didn't expect was that this time she said in stiff Chinese: "You are here again? I know you.

Now I tell you, we don’t want to deal with you, please don’t come again.”

This time, Nangong Yue didn't say a word, just turned around and left. Her heart felt like it was stabbed hard. She couldn't help but ask herself: Who are you referring to? Are you referring to me and Liuli? Or are you referring to the Longteng people who came to Rome to make a living?

She was not angry at the old woman's attitude, but instead felt an indescribable sense of guilt, as if she had become a despicable character. Thinking of Xia Muchu, her inner entanglement became more and more serious. In the current complicated situation, this feeling made her feel like she was in a fog, not knowing where to go.

Her mood was extremely bad. After leaving the Barton Hotel, she and Liuli found a high-end restaurant and spent a lot of money. The two women drank a whole bottle of champagne.

The following is an expanded version of Nangong Yue's memories of the Red House Restaurant:

She was dazed and returned to the Red House Restaurant in Longgudui, a place full of old-fashioned atmosphere. The wooden tables and chairs were slightly mottled due to the erosion of time, and the air was filled with the greasy smell of food.

Li Yichen pushed the old bicycle, the wheels creaking, as if telling the hardships of life. He had a self-deprecating smile on his face, his eyes revealing helplessness and confusion.

"We are the only ones who ride bicycles here to eat, just like Kong Yiji, the only one who drinks while standing and wearing a long gown." Li Yichen's voice was full of bitterness and unwillingness.

Nangong Yue clearly remembered that at that time, Li Yichen's eyes flashed with a kind of unwillingness to fate and helplessness to reality. His hair was a little messy due to the wind, and his clothes looked a little worn, but his posture was still upright, as if he was stubbornly resisting the oppression of life.

At that moment, the sunlight shone on them through the cracks in the window, forming streaks of light and shadows. However, this warm light could not dispel the haze in their hearts.

Li Yichen's words echoed in the empty restaurant, and every word was like a heavy stone, hitting Nangong Yue's heart. She looked at Li Yichen, and a complex emotion surged in her heart, with sympathy, emotion, and confusion about the future.

The diners around them occasionally cast curious glances at them, but they didn't seem to care, as if they were immersed in their own insignificant yet extremely heavy world.

This scene at the Red House Restaurant was deeply engraved in Nangong Yue's memory, becoming an indelible scar in her heart. Whenever she recalled this scene, she would feel an unspeakable pain and helplessness.

When they walked into the apartment, the night was already as dark as an ocean of ink, so thick that it seemed to swallow everything.

The air around seemed to be frozen by the darkness, making it hard to breathe.

The lights in the corridor flickered, flashing an eerie light, as if foreshadowing an impending storm.

Liuli, who was so tired that she looked like a broken body, just stepped into her room and collapsed on the bed with a "bang". Her posture was carefree and extremely free and easy.

After a while, she began to snore loudly and fell into a sweet dream. The way she slept was so unbearable to look at that one could not help but gasp in amazement.

In this deep night when everything was silent and as quiet as the abyss, Nangong Yue was sitting alone at the desk.

Outside the window, the wind was howling and the branches were swaying wildly in the wind, occasionally hitting the window, making a frightening "snapping" sound.

The atmosphere in the room was as heavy as a lead block, making it almost impossible to breathe.

My thoughts were like a tangled mess, the more I tried to sort them out, the more confused I became.

The problems are like a surging, savage beast, rushing towards us like an overwhelming force.

The pressure was like a mountain collapsing in an instant, so heavy that it almost crushed her into dust.

The impact was like a violent Category 10 typhoon, so fierce that it was difficult to withstand.

Her eyes fixed on the calendar again and she saw the words on it.

A bitter smile that was extremely painful and miserable appeared on her face. Then she grabbed the pen and changed the word "gray" to "black" with great speed. Then, the line of words instantly became -

Today is such a dark day.

Then, she seemed to be struck by a huge thunder and woke up instantly.

He hurriedly tore off the calendar page, crumpled it up at lightning speed, rushed to the bathroom, flushed it away with water, and kept muttering to himself, "Don't do anything weird, or I'll be dead!"

At this moment, there was a loud "crack" of thunder outside the window. Liuli was extremely smart!

Just because of Bai Fang's incident, how could we use such a depressing, heavy and suffocating word as "darkness".

If she saw it, these two words would definitely expose all the secrets completely.

That night, Nangong Yue's eyes were like copper bells under a spell. They never closed, and her gaze was dull as if she had lost her soul.

She silently chanted in her heart: "Mu Chu, my heart is as clear as a mirror, it can't be clearer.
