unruly

The wind above the high-rise building is wrapped in fine water droplets, pouring into the house in bursts, taking away the sweltering heat of the day, and the rest is cool.

The two quarreled on the sofa for a while until Aunt Lin came out after washing the dishes.Aunt Lin was happy, she liked this kind of cozy atmosphere when she was older, seeing that the two of them were so harmonious, she put a plate of sliced ​​watermelon on the tea table after a while, and kept calling Ning Zhi to eat.

The old man is rare for cubs, but he has no grandchildren under his knees, and he is more affectionate to Ning Zhi than anyone else, as if she is half of his own family.

In front of the elders, Ning Zhi is not shy, he eats whatever he gives, and lies carelessly on the sofa, not at all in good shape.

Ming Shu ate a few small pieces of watermelon and listened to their chatter.

The rain outside the house repeatedly, stopping and falling, patter...

Ning Zhi left very late, leaving behind the two paper bags he took from the dormitory.

At that time, Ming Shu happened to go to the bathroom, and when he came out, he couldn't see the other party anymore, only Aunt Lin was still tidying up in the living room.

Aunt Lin handed one of the paper bags to Ming Shu, and said with a smile on her face, "The gift that the child bought is yours."

Ming Shu was startled, he really didn't guess that it was something given to him, and he accompanied Ning Zhi to the dormitory to pick it up in the afternoon, thinking it was something important.

Open the paper bag, inside is a small and exquisite gray-blue box.Inside the box is a snowflake-shaped brooch, generous in style and fine in workmanship, it looks like it is purely handmade.

Aunt Lin's gift was a pair of platinum earrings. The style and texture were relatively complicated. The same handmade product, even if you don't know the goods, you can recognize that it must be valuable.

Aunt Lin was surprised. She thought she would only accept a random purchase, but when she opened it, it turned out to be such a valuable item. She immediately put the platinum earrings back, muttering about returning them to Ning Zhi, and said embarrassedly, "It's really... ...Why did you give this, I thought it was a souvenir..."

After staring at the brooch in her hand for a while, Ming Shu looked up again, hesitated for a while, but stopped Aunt Lin, and said, "She also has a heart, you put it away first, it's okay."

Aunt Lin waved her hand, feeling really sorry, "That won't work, it's too expensive."

"I'll just give her back some other day, don't pay it back." Mingshu said, "It's good for her to have this kind of heart. Just talk to her in two days."

The child is not short of money, so she chose carefully to give this kind of handicraft-style jewelry, and it may take a lot of energy and time to find a craftsman to make it, so she returned it directly and gave her a gift of comparable value. is the best way.

Ming Shu has always been thoughtful in doing things, taking care of all aspects.

Aunt Lin hesitated for a while, but finally listened to Mingshu.

"Then you tell me in advance."

The continuous rainy weather lasted until the next day, and the next day was still cool, but the raindrops were not so heavy, and the fine silk threads were flying, and the whole sky seemed to be covered with a thin layer of haze, everywhere was gray. The world even seems to have fallen into a thick fog, appearing dense and hazy.

Z City was intermittently busy on Friday, and the morning near the Financial City was still deserted, but it became bustling after noon, with vehicles and pedestrians passing by in waves.

Ming Shu went to the villa by the lake again to visit the old couple.

The weather is changeable, Mingyi feels like he has caught a cold, and he started to have a low-grade fever this morning, making him very uncomfortable.Xiao Heliang called Mingshu early in the morning to inform him of this, and he must let him go back and have a look.

Ms. Ming is the treasure of the whole family. Both father and daughter care about her. Although it is a minor illness, it is necessary to go home.

Mingshu stayed home for a long time, busy taking care of her mother.

Ming Yiru was relieved and annoyed, he scolded Xiao Heliang when he caught him, saying that he was fine and Xiao Heliang made a big fuss, so he insisted on calling Mingshu back.

Xiao Heliang was not annoyed, he was quite happy to be reprimanded, and exposed Ming Yiru face to face, saying that Ms. Ming Yiru had been thinking about it last night, and she had been thinking about her daughter, and she had a fever this morning and nagged for a long time.

"Anyway, I've been free for the past two days, and I don't have much work." Ming Shu said, sandwiched in the middle to smooth things over, took a glass of water and handed it to Ming Yiru to take medicine.

Ming Yiru refused to admit it, so he gouged Xiao Heliang with his eyes, and said to save face: "I'm fine, the physical examination last month was fine, and all indexes are normal."

Ming Shu nodded, and turned around to ask Xiao Heliang about the results of his physical examination.

The old couple have a regular life schedule and daily habits. They are very healthy. Regular physical examinations are even more essential, basically once in the first half of the year.

The results of Xiao Heliang's physical examination are also okay, except for the high blood pressure, there is nothing wrong with it, everything is normal.

Ming Yiru asked: "What about you, Chu Yu said last time that your studio arranged a group medical examination, but you didn't go, did you?"

"I was too busy last month, so I didn't have time," Ming Shu said nonchalantly, "I'll go there next time when I'm free, let's wait a while."

Hearing that this was perfunctory, Ming Yiru was dissatisfied, and slapped Ming Shu on the back of his hand, "How long will the physical examination take? I'm too busy to be like this. Don't say it nicely and forget it next time." , must remember to go."

Mingshu hummed pretentiously, going in one ear and out the other, not caring about it at all.

Ming Yi was rambunctious, and seeing that she didn't want to get in, he talked a lot about who was sick and who had problems, how about a certain friend of mine, and how about a certain partner.

Money and work are secondary, sometimes there is no need to work so hard, and the Ming family is not short of that.

Xiao Heliang stood aside and echoed his wife, expressing that what Mingyi said was reasonable.Today's young people generally don't take their bodies seriously, and there are a lot of young people who get sick at a young age.

The old couple are more concerned about their daughter, thinking about the incident last time, and also thinking about Mingshu's own relationship problems.

After such a long time, the old couple have already figured out the problem thoroughly. They know what is going on between Ming Shu and Ji Anli, and they even have a clear idea of ​​the reason for breaking up.

Even if they don't take the initiative to say it, it is not difficult to find out about Ji Anli's situation based on Ming Yiru's connections.

As early as when they learned the truth, the old couple were surprised and angry, and their hearts ached from anger, especially Ming Yiru, who almost impulsively went to settle accounts with Ji Anli, but Xiao Heliang stopped him in time, otherwise there would definitely be trouble one game.

The couple was at loggerheads, and felt even more aggrieved than Mingshu. After all, it was the daughter who had spent so much time raising her, and when Mingshu came out, she had a hard time getting her consent, but now it has become like this Well, Ji Anli's actions were indeed too shameful, and calling her treacherous would be considered light.

But these are all private matters. Facing their daughter at this moment, neither Ming Yiru nor Xiao Heliang, both of them showed these emotions on their faces, and they didn't even ask a question.

In short, unlike the previous few times, Ming Yiru no longer talked about Ji Anli, and never mentioned this person since Mingshu came in, as if Ji Anli did not exist.

Later, when the rain stopped, Ming Shu and Ming Yiru went for a walk in the garden.

Sensing the change of her mother, which is very different from the past, Ming Shu can still guess what's going on, and she knows it well.She didn't directly mention those unpleasant experiences, and she didn't really want to talk about it with her parents. She just said softly: "I've had a lot of things over there in the past two years, so you guys are worried."

Ming Yiru said ironically: "I don't worry about you, I never did."

Ming Shu thought for a while and said, "Mom, don't worry about me."

"I'm not worried," Ming Yiru said, "What are you thinking?"

The mother and daughter work together, and they can still reach a consensus on this point, both of which are straightforward.

In the past, Mingyi was like a sharp knife cutting through messes. His ex-husband was unfaithful, and he turned around and took his daughter to divorce. He divided half of the property and set up his own family. Now Mingshu can afford it and let it go, quite like Ms. Ming.

At around two o'clock, Mingshu was picked up by the driver and rushed back to the old store before three o'clock.

On the way, passing by the commercial center, Ming Shu made a stop and walked into a luxury store, wanting to buy a return gift to bring back, but unfortunately there was nothing suitable for Ning Zhi’s style in the store, and he didn’t find what he wanted to buy. .

After returning to the small building of the old store and sitting in the office, Ming Shu thought for a long time, and finally called his assistant to come in and asked Shi Hongying to order a ring individually.

She can rest assured that Miss Ying's craftsmanship is sure to be a high-quality product, and it won't be any worse.

But custom-made jewelry takes a certain amount of time, and it will definitely not be completed in three or two days, and you have to wait for a while.

Sister Ying called to ask about the situation that day, wondering who it was done for.

Mingshu answered truthfully, without hiding anything.

"Sure, wrap it on me, no problem." Sister Ying readily agreed, thinking that she specially prepared a gift for cooperation, "Anyway, I have nothing to do these few days, so I can do it for you in retreat."

The next two days were calm, a rain lowered the temperature of the whole city, the hot and dry days dissipated a lot, not as dull as before.

The beginning of autumn is coming soon, and the next season will be in a few days, but the end of the year is not here, it is estimated that this day will only be cooler for a while, and it will definitely be hotter for a while later.

Something happened to the Ning family, and Ning's father got into trouble again. This shameless thing was not clear-headed, and he did a big scandal that broke the three views-he had sex with other people's wives, and the two shameless middle-aged A man and a woman cheated secretly, and joined hands to put a green hat on the director of a certain group.

This time, it wasn't just the old lady Ning who was half dead with anger, even Zhuang Qinian's eyes were blackened with embarrassment. The whole family wanted to take turns scratching Father Ning's ears to wake him up.

Although Father Ning is a divorced person and has a daughter, he is still a free man. He spends his days and nights, at least not so absurd. This time, he just wants to grab someone's wife...Zhuang Qinian is very angry and temperamental The higher ups have to fight with Father Ning.The father of Ning was high, he could resist, and also argued, saying that the director was not a good person, and he was derailed earlier than his wife. This wave of green has nothing to do.

These words were really destructive, the old lady almost fainted, Zhuang Qinian was so choked that he couldn't speak, his face turned red and his neck was thick.

All in all, the Ning family made a fuss over this matter, and it didn't stop all day long.

Ning Zhi left Yulin Garden, went to the Ning family's old house in the south of the city, and stayed with Mrs. Ning for two nights at home to appease the old lady.

Before the boy left, he said hello to Aunt Lin, but he didn't tell Mingshu, not even on WeChat.

Ming Shu didn't know the truth, and he didn't see Ning Zhi for two days in a row. He felt a little strange in his heart, thinking that he had gone to school, but he only learned the truth from Fan Chuyu on Monday morning.

This matter didn't make a big deal, and it was suppressed as soon as it emerged. Neither the Ning family nor the group could afford to lose face, and both sides were handling it in a low-key manner.

I don't know where Fan Chuyu heard the news. Anyway, Mingshu was quite surprised when he heard this, but after thinking about it, Ning's father even looked like that at the dinner party held by his family. Not surprisingly.

In the big circle of rich people, cheating is a small problem, and even more exaggerated things abound, and some of them are simply unbearable.

Ming Shu was not curious about Ning's father, but only asked, "Is it a big influence?"

"Fortunately," Fan Chuyu shook his head, "It is estimated that the couple will not divorce, after all, the woman's family has more financial resources, so it should be dealt with coldly, and nothing will happen afterwards."

Ming Shu frowned, and couldn't help but think of Ning Zhi.My own father did such a disgusting thing, I don't know what that kid will think, maybe it will be affected by innocent people.

Fan Chuyu didn't know what was going on with Ning Zhi's situation, and Ming Shu didn't ask, and skipped this tacitly after the chat.Fan Chuyu asked: "Do you want to add a seat for Ning Zhi at the new clothes conference?"

"No, there's no time, so I have to catch up with the next time." Ming Shu replied, hesitated for a while, and then said, "You can leave one in the auditorium, and add it next to me."

Fan Chuyu replied: "Yes, no problem."

"Also..." Ming Shu interrupted her, "What happened to the last time I asked you to find a director on the runway?

Fan Chuyu said: "It's settled, you can do it anytime over there, just look at the time allocation here."

Mingshu said: "Arrange a training session first on Friday, and I will arrange it later."

"Okay." Fan Chuyu said, and asked back, "Then when will I come over tomorrow, morning or noon?"

Mingshu replied: "In the morning, you are in charge of the signing process."

Ning Zhi and Zhuang Qinian will come over tomorrow, and everything must be handled properly today without any mistakes.

Fan Chuyu came here to help. The old store had too many things to do, and Mingshu had to deal with customers who had made reservations, so he didn't have so much energy to deal with them.After talking about this, the two of them were busy with their own business. Ming Shu went to the third floor to draw pictures, and didn't go downstairs until the guests came later.

This afternoon passed quickly, and it was time to get off work in a blink of an eye.

Ming Shu didn't go back, but stayed in the store to work overtime, and also rested here at night.She sent a text message to Aunt Lin in advance, telling herself that she would stay up late to catch up on the picture, and she would not return until tomorrow, and told her not to make dinner or deliver it.

Knowing that she was busy, Aunt Lin didn't bother her too much, she just explained that she would make soup for her late, and told her not to stay up too late.

Usually at this time, the communication is over, but this time Mingshu didn't put down the phone immediately, after struggling for a while, she still sent a message to ask Aunt Lin if Ning knew if she had returned to Yulin Garden.

It took a while for Aunt Lin to reply: "At home."

Ming Shu hesitated, thought for half a minute, and then sent a message asking Aunt Lin to send a meal to the next door to make something for the children.

Aunt Lin didn't think much about it, she just did what she was asked to do without asking why.

Ming Shu seldom took the initiative to care about others, and this time he didn't know what to think. He was too concerned about the little curly hair, which was not normal.

But she herself didn't feel that there was anything wrong, she just read the rumor that Fan Chuyu told, and she thought it was just a due concern, and she never went beyond the distance.

There is another guest coming tonight, a female boss introduced by Lao Cao, who is considered a big customer.

The female boss has a good appearance, beautiful and majestic, and is a good-looking type, with a very beautiful figure, about 1.7 meters tall.This person has high requirements on privacy and other aspects, so he specially named Ming Shu to serve him alone, and he couldn't even bring more assistants.

Mingshu received the other party personally, but she did everything she asked for extremely thoughtfully, trying her best to satisfy the guest.

The female boss is not a local, she was brought from the coastal area, her skin is fair, and she looks like a misty beauty in the south of the Yangtze River at first glance.She and Mingshu got along very well, and she seemed approachable and approachable from the moment she entered the door. At one point, she took the initiative to chat with Mingshu, and made a suggestive joke when measuring the size. She blinked and asked with a smile: " Do you need to undress?"

Ming Shu took it lightly, and said in a gentle voice: "No, you can just stand up, the energy is accurate."

The female boss frowned, very satisfied with her, and asked knowingly after a while: "How old is Mr. Ming this year?"

Mingshu said: "28."

Female Boss: "Is it full?"

Ming Shu: "It's full."

"I can't tell, you look younger."

"Fortunately."

The female boss said, "I'm 32."

Ming Shu knew it all, and said, "You are the one who looks younger, you look like 25 six."

The female boss was very happy, "Don't flatter me."

Ming Shu said: "No, you are good-looking, and you are indeed about the same age as you are."

Everyone loves to hear this kind of talk, especially Ming Shu who speaks in a serious manner without any hypocrisy.The female boss was in a good mood, and after a while, she asked bluntly, "Is Mr. Ming married?"

Ming Shu said truthfully, "No."

"Do you have a boyfriend?"

"nor."

The female boss nodded, "Where is your girlfriend, do you have one?"

Ming Shu paused, lowered his gaze, and didn't really want to answer this question, but he calmly replied after a while: "It's gone, not yet."

The female boss said speciously: "That's a coincidence, I just don't have one either."

Mature women should always be more direct, not beating around the bush, and say everything straight to the point, less reserved and restrained.

This is not the first time Mingshu has encountered this kind of thing. He has experienced many things in the past. There are both men and women. Some are tactful temptations, and some are direct pursuits. The intention is to have a try with her, to have an open relationship, to be supported by a lover... all kinds of messy ways.

Probably once a certain stage has passed, people's feelings will no longer be as pure as they were when they were young, and all kinds of crooked thoughts will emerge in an endless stream, and the bottom line will retreat again and again until it is completely gone.Mingshu didn't like that, and couldn't accept it.

She didn't answer the words, as if she didn't understand the deep meaning of the female boss's words, she continued to measure the size silently and asked some questions about the design requirements.

It could be seen that this was rejected, and the female boss was not angry, but was in a good mood, and left a business card on the desk, raised her beautiful eyes, and said, "I'll contact you next time."

Ming Shu nodded, "Okay."

The female boss said, "It's troublesome."

Ming Shu was unmoved, "No trouble, it should be."

"If you have time to eat together, I invite you."

"Thank you."

Full of courtesy, until sending this one off.

Mingshu's face was complicated, she was a little bit repelled by the so-called temptation just now, but she still didn't show it in front of the assistant.She rested alone for a while, closed the door and waited slowly in the office, and it took a long time before she picked up her pen to work.

The business card was thrown into the trash can without even looking at it.

After drawing pictures until late at night, when she was tired and rested on the chair, Ming Shufu lowered her head and saw this thing again, by accident, she thought of Ning Zhi and him for no reason.

I don't know why, but the female boss's attitude is not bad, she can even be regarded as polite, there is no disrespect in the whole process, it is much better than when the brat first moved to Yulin Garden, but Ming Shu just feels that she is not as good as Ning Zhi, The latter is more acceptable.

The weird idea came up too suddenly, and it popped up inexplicably.

Why did you compare these two irrelevant people together... Ming Shu immediately suppressed this thought and stopped quickly.

She habitually glanced at her phone, clicked into WeChat, and then scrolled down to the chat interface with Ning Zhi.

Fatigue makes people confused, and they always behave in ways that cannot be explained.

Before entering the dialogue box, Mingshu restrainedly stopped, frowned unconsciously, then slowly exited WeChat, and forcibly put down the phone.
