stranger

The lights in the studio were bright, but they couldn't hide Zhao Mingxiu's glowing eyes as if he had discovered a shocking secret.

"Ah, really, why is this guy here at this time!" Jin Tan let out a sigh of annoyance, stood up straight and looked at Zhao Mingxiu.

Zhao Mingxiu walked down the steps excitedly, pointed at the two of them and said excitedly, "Dafa, are you two really together? Does Rachel Liu know?" He picked up the camera with a frightened expression Patting Jin Tan and Zhi Xi who were facing each other, "Ah, look at what I found with those big eyes!"

"Ah, Zhao Mingxiu, what are you doing!" Jin Tan stared, striding over and fighting for the camera with Zhao Mingxiu like children arguing.

"Are you still denying something? Last time I took pictures at the party..." Zhao Mingxiu, who was tightly hugged by Jin Tan from behind because he swore to protect the camera, struggled to speak, and he didn't finish his sentence But Jin Tan immediately covered his mouth with his hand.

"Ah, you are really..." Jin Tan resisted the urge to stick Zhao Mingxiu's mouth in his heart, covered Zhao Mingxiu's mouth, and then continued, "Because of some special reasons, Zhixi will stay with you for a few days , so you don’t come here these days if you have nothing to do, you know? Just nod if you know.”

Zhao Mingxiu nodded when he heard Jin Tan's words, and when Jin Tan let go, he sat down on the sofa, looked at Zhixi with a smile like a normal person, and said, "Do you want to live here? Ah, it's okay, "He said cheerfully, and then blinked at Zhixi, "Anyway, Yingdao won't be at school these days, but... are you and Ah Tan really together?" Zhao Mingxiu With a bright light in his eyes, he looked at Zhixi expectantly.

Jin Tan was also looking forward to her answer, but the light in his eyes dimmed a bit when he saw her embarrassed look, and then he picked up Zhao Mingxiu's scarf pretending not to care and said dissatisfiedly, "Ah, Zhao Mingxiu, this The place has been requisitioned by me now, so," the corners of his mouth curled up, "if you want to talk nonsense, go outside." After speaking, he almost dragged Zhao Mingxiu out with overwhelming physical strength.

Hearing Zhao Mingxiu's dissatisfied murmur, the corner of her mouth raised a faint smile for the first time in these days, but when she lowered her eyes, she caught a glimpse of a photo on the table.

In the photo, Cui Yingdao is reclining on the sofa with one hand resting on his head. There is an unruly look between his eyebrows and eyes. The corners of his mouth are still bent habitually, but his eyes are lightly closed to cover up the sharp eyes. The whole person It also looks a lot softer.

"Are you really gone, Cui Yingdao..." She looked at the photo with complicated emotions in her eyes.

In the crowded airport, the stewardesses with their suitcases walking in neat steps are smiling and walking, and the captains who just got off the landing plane are talking about it with a cup of hot latte in their hands. walked with a smile.

The people who picked up the plane looked anxiously at the aisle, with all kinds of names written on the signs in their hands.

"President, the person in charge of the Mina Group is on the plane that just landed." Director Park, who was following Esther Lee, said respectfully.

"Understood." Esther Li took off his sunglasses and handed them to Mr. Park behind him. When he saw a blond-haired British man in a black suit coming out of the passage, there was a decent smile on his face, elegantly He walked over with strides, "MrSmith, nice to see you here."

She spoke fluent English, smiled and reached out to shake hands with Mr Smith politely.

It is natural for her to come to pick up the person in charge. The Mina Group is backed by British aristocrats. It has a history of more than 100 years and plays a pivotal role in the British economic circle. If rs international can cooperate with them, yes Global development is also of great help.

"Oh, lady Li is as beautiful as others say," mrsmith looked at Esther Li in amazement, who showed off her figure in a slim trench coat, and said with sincere admiration, "You are so beautiful, no wonder your two daughters are also grown So beautiful."

"Have you... met my daughter?" Esther Li was taken aback when she heard Mr Smith suddenly mentioning her daughter, and then said with a smile.

"I was lucky enough to see it when I accompanied Master Adonis to a dinner party in the United States. Master Adonis specially asked me to say hello to your little daughter this time." Mr Smith smiled heartily.

"...That's it." She sorted out her slightly surprised expression, turned her head and said a few words to Director Park calmly, then smiled and took Mr Smith into the car that had been prepared in advance.

Steward Wang saw Liu Rachel, who was out of school, walking towards the hall with a handbag, and then went to the door and waited respectfully.

"Where's mother?" Rachel Liu handed the bag to Steward Wang, looked around the hall and asked with a sideways glance.

"Madam has been staying in the storage room since receiving the British guests." Butler Wang replied with a nod.

"Storage room?" She frowned habitually, and then walked towards the storage room. When she was at the door, she saw Esther Li's hand gently caressing the electric wheelchair, with a thoughtful expression on her face. He didn't say a word, "What is mother doing?"

She crossed her arms and looked at her mother with her head slightly tilted.

"I'm here to reflect on myself," Esther Lee said flatly, then turned her head to look at Liu Rachel, "How is Liu Allie outside these days?"

"What else can I do?" She curled her lips, her tone flat without any ups and downs, "I'm not hungry or cold, I'm living well."

The corner of Esther Li's mouth curled up slightly, and he patted the wheelchair lightly with his hand, "After staying outside for so many days...it's time for her to come back."

There was a faint light in her eyes, and when she lowered her eyes, they were tightly covered...

The sky in Seoul gradually turned gray and white due to the incoming cold air. The cold wind swept across the road, and the icy temperature seemed to reach the bottom of people's hearts.

Standing by the roadside, Liu Zhixi was holding a cup of steaming coffee in his hand, his small and delicate nose was a little red from the cold, and any casual breath would turn into white mist.

"It's really cold..." She sniffed and walked towards the school gate when the green light on the opposite side turned on.

"Ah-"

A black car suddenly stopped on the side of the road, the door opened, and a middle-aged man in a silver suit bent down and got out of the car.

When she saw the middle-aged man, she stopped and stood in the middle of the road, staring at him with her mouth slightly open. When she loosened her fingers, the coffee cup fell straight to the ground, and a few drops of hot coffee splashed. on her lap.

Her lips trembled slightly, she looked at the man in disbelief, and wanted to take a step forward, but she saw the man smilingly hugging a five or six-year-old boy from the car, pampering him in my arms.

Jin Tan, who was waiting for Zhixi at the school gate, wanted to go up when he watched her walking across the road, but when he saw her suddenly stop in the middle of the road with tears in his eyes, he couldn't help but stop. He got down and looked in the direction of her line of sight.

The middle-aged man smiled kindly, and stroked the hair of the child in his arms, "Ai Yigu, our Yuan Hao is really growing up, Dad can't hold him anymore!"

"Dad," the child blinked his bright eyes and said expectantly, "You said you would take me to buy a Superman model today, so don't go back on your word!"

"Of course Dad hasn't forgotten, this is a promise to us Yuan Hao." The middle-aged man's eyes were full of doting, he put the child in his arms on the ground, held his hand and said, "Now, Dad Take Yuan Hao to buy models!" After speaking, the middle-aged man took the little boy's hand and walked in one direction.

"...Father..." Tears welled up in her eyes, she looked at the one she hadn't seen for several years, and once touched her head and said, "When we Zhixi grow up, Dad will take you to travel around the world "'s father, watching him pamperingly taking his child away from her sight.

But she... suddenly stood helplessly in the middle of the road and cried, not daring to catch up with him and call him father, no, she couldn't call him.

She still remembered the disgusting eyes her father looked at her mother when they divorced, which made her feel that her father seemed to hate everything related to her mother, including her, otherwise... At that time, why did he only give himself a back view? Left without a sound.

But father, you... once, also promised her...

Jin Tan stood by the side of the road and watched her crying helplessly in the middle of the road, but he didn't know what words to use to comfort her.

Father, this word may be just a synonym for majesty to him, but to her, it may not be.

The red light came on at this moment.

He glanced at the car that had already stepped on the accelerator, strode over and took Zhi Xi's hand to the side of the road, his tone full of worry, "Are you crazy, just standing in the middle of the road like this... ..." But his eyes touched her biting her already white lips, her eyes were full of unresolved sadness, her heart tightened, she sighed softly, and gently hugged her into his arms inside.

"I'm sorry, I can only comfort you in this way." He whispered in her ear, his eyes full of distress.

Her hands gradually wrapped around his waist, and she wept wantonly in his arms.

Such a weak appearance... as long as you see it is enough...

A sapphire blue car slowly stopped near the school gate, the car window lowered slowly, Esther Li, whose face was covered by sunglasses, watched the scene silently, finally turned around and pressed the button, the car window It rose slowly again, and the car slowly drove into the school...
