"Jiang Chiyu."

The elevator was stuck on the highest floor and didn't get down until the door behind him opened, and Yu Duo's voice chased him out.

There was no way for Jiang Chiyu to avoid it, but he didn't look back, and his heart was clear.

What should come will always come, the more you want, the harder you will fall, this is the truth that it took him a long time to force himself to accept the fall covered in blood.

He had made up his mind to stay where he should be, but now it seems that he has screwed up again.What kind of reason will Yu Duo use to smooth over this accident this time?After all, no matter how much hope he gave himself before, in the end he was able to kick him away mercilessly like a kitten or puppy.

The sound of the elevator running was very clear in the stairwell. Jiang Chiyu didn't try to save anything. He stared intently at the pattern on the marble panel, quietly waiting for the knife to fall again.

Familiar footsteps sounded, and the figure behind him was reflected on the elevator door, Jiang Chiyu knew that it was Yu Duo who came out from the door.

When the two shadows on the ground completely overlapped, the sound of that person's breathing came to his ears, and before Yu Duo could speak, he gently tugged Jiang Chiyu's arm with one hand.

The originally dignified atmosphere was broken by Yu Duo's little action.

Jiang Chiyu was slightly taken aback, turned around hesitantly, and saw Yu Duo put his hand into his pocket, took out a small pendant with a strange appearance from his pocket, and handed it to him.

It was a mobile phone pendant in the shape of a cartoon villain, not to mention who would use a mobile phone pendant these days, the rough and crude shape alone was too ugly to look at.

"Take it." Yu Duo avoided Jiang Chiyu's gaze, and seemed to feel that he was a little ashamed to touch such a weird thing all of a sudden.

"Give it to me?" Jiang Chiyu didn't notice this, the energy that was suffocating in his chest suddenly had nowhere to go, this feeling was like preparing for a tenth typhoon in advance, and when he opened his eyes the next day, But ushered in a breezy sunny day.

"I bought it when I was traveling in Yunnan, and I wanted to give it to you last time." Yu Duo's heart was actually in a mess like ten kettles boiling on the stove at the same time, but he still tried his best to act as if nothing had happened.

He gave the pendant to Jiang Chiyu again, pretending to be relaxed and said with a smile: "If you like it, you can keep it for yourself, if you don't like it, you can play it with your colleagues."

Like it, how could you not like it.Jiang Chiyu took the pendant from Yu Duo's hand, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and said the truth about such a trivial matter: "I like it very much."

Maybe it was Jiang Chiyu's "like" that encouraged Yu Duo. He didn't dare to cross the line rashly, but he didn't want to let Jiang Chiyu leave just like that.

So he mustered up his courage and left a small gap for the doors and windows that were about to close: "Be careful on the road, and ask Yang Youyun to come to the house to play with me some other day."

***

Asking Yang Youyun to come to play at home, I don't know if it was Yu Duo's scene, but Yang Youyun obviously took it seriously.

On Sunday evening, there was a rhythmic knock on the door. Lin Shengnan put down the sauce in his hand, turned around and went out to open the door.

There was a man and a woman standing outside the door, Jiang Chiyu and Lin Shengnan naturally knew each other, so the person standing beside him must be Yang Youyun, the eldest lady of Guihu Lake.

"Hi, hello, you must be Sister Shengnan." Yang Youyun is an extrovert, and when she saw Lin Shengnan, she greeted Lin Shengnan enthusiastically.

Lin Shengnan came back to his senses, and hastily welcomed the two of them in even more enthusiastically.

When Jiang Chiyu and Yang Youyun entered, Yu Duo was coming out of the kitchen with a pot of vegetables in his arms. He looked up at the two of them, and said, "Here we are, ready to serve dinner."

After a while, the steaming hot pot was on the table.

Ever since Jiang Chiyu inadvertently conveyed Yu Duo's invitation to Yang Youyun, the eldest lady has really taken a liking to her, and has been talking about visiting Yu Duo's house every day, forcing Jiang Chiyu to let go.

Thinking that Jiang Chiyu had been back for so long and hadn't met Lin Shengnan in a serious way, so Yu Duo simply set up a hotpot game and invited them to his house for dinner.

At the small dining table, Lin Shengnan sat in the middle, and Yu Duo and Jiang Chiyu sat on either side of her. Everything in front of her eyes seemed to be the same as before.

But from the moment Jiang Chiyu entered the door, she began to observe them quietly.Looking at the two people who appeared to be in peace on the surface, but were always a little polite and alienated, Lin Shengnan was finally willing to admit that there are some people and things that really can never go back.

Yang Youyun seems to be blind to everything, but in fact, she has a delicate heart, and she has long been aware of the undercurrents between these few people.In order to invigorate the atmosphere, she took the initiative to pull Yu Duo and talked about many interesting things about Jiang Chiyu over the years.

Yang Youyun told the story vividly and vividly. This reunion spanning five years, and because of her presence, the atmosphere gradually began to relax.

Yang Youyun came to visit today and brought a bottle of champagne.After dinner, Yu Duo took out three wine glasses and poured half a glass for each of Yang Youyun and Lin Shengnan.

Looking from the balcony of Yu Duo's house, although the view is not as wide as that of Tang Village, you can still see the constantly flashing signal lights on Nanming Mountain. The three of them just sat on the balcony, drinking and chatting leisurely.

Jiang Chiyu couldn't drink because of driving, so he didn't join their drinking party.He sat aside and looked at Yu Duo's side face, rubbing his fingers unconsciously, but he didn't take the next step after all.

Tonight, just looking at Yu Duo a few more times, his years of heart addiction started to stir again.

Yu Duo seemed to be concentrating on chatting with Yang Youyun, but he always paid attention to Jiang Chiyu with a ray of attention.He had noticed Jiang Chiyu's small movements a long time ago, grabbed a large handful of lollipops from his pocket, and stuffed them to him.

Jiang Chiyu was stunned for a moment, and soon he would feel better. He reached out and picked out a pleasing one from the colorful candies, tore open the package and put it in his mouth.

The sweet and greasy fruit flavor diffused on the tip of the tongue. Jiang Chiyu couldn't adapt for a while, and couldn't help frowning, but the restless mood that was always lingering was so strangely calmed down.

Sitting at the side, Yang Youyun saw the actions of the two of them, raised her head and sipped her wine, with a clear smile on her face.This scene also fell into Lin Shengnan's eyes, and suddenly she felt that the situation might not be as bad as she first thought.

Yang Youyun was born in a wealthy family and has received higher education, but he hit it off with a rough man like Yu Duo at first sight.The two chatted all night and got along very happily.If it wasn't for Jiang Chiyu's urging, Yang Youyun would have meant to stay at Yu Duo's house tonight.

It was not until twelve o'clock in the evening that Yang Youyun reluctantly bid farewell and left.After sending the guests out of the house, Yu Duo went to the window and watched the taillights of the Maybach parked downstairs turn on.

Yang Youyun drank some wine tonight, so the matter of driving naturally fell on Jiang Chiyu. Before setting off, he subconsciously looked in the direction of Yu Duo's house through the rearview mirror.

Yang Youyun noticed his gaze and teased him: "I really can't bear to leave, so let Zhao Zhu come pick me up, and you can stay."

"Nothing." Jiang Chiyu withdrew his gaze, fastened his seat belt, looked ahead and said, "He was just being polite, who knew you were really here."

"Isn't it okay to be curious? I also want to see who you have been thinking about for so many years. Besides, if I don't come, how can you have an excuse?" Yang Youyun lowered the back of the seat and pressed the window: "Looking at it this way, you His vision is really good, if we talk about it tonight, I'm afraid I'll fall in love with him too."

"I don't like him." Jiang Chiyu glanced at Yang Youyun and emphasized it again.Yang Youyun didn't seem to notice, and changed the subject with a smile.

Yang Youyun stayed at Yu Duo's house all night, smoking a cigarette before driving.She took out the cigarette case, knocked out two cigarettes from the box, stuffed one into her mouth, and handed the other to Jiang Chiyu.

Jiang Chiyu shook his head, indicating that he does not smoke.

"What's wrong?" Yang Youyun asked.

Jiang Chiyu replied: "Quit."

"Hey, you're really obedient." Of course Yang Youyun guessed why Jiang Chiyu suddenly started quitting smoking, she smiled and put away the extra cigarette without forcing it.

"Our great cause has not been accomplished." After a cigarette was half burned, Yang Youyun turned her head and blew a smoke ring out of the window, then looked at Jiang Chiyu, and asked half-truthfully, "Your wish has come true now, don't you plan to marry me?" Put down the burden halfway and quit, right?"

"I don't have any wish." Jiang Chiyu smiled: "It's too late to retire at this time, and your good brothers can't hold it anymore."

Yang Youyun sighed, leaned back in the chair, and said: "Back then, several companies fought over the branch in H City, and I knew they suddenly agreed to give me this piece of cake, so they must have left behind. "

City H is of great significance in the national layout of Guihu Lake. It can be said that it is a "place for military strategists to contend for".

What Mr. Yang has decided will not change easily.None of the three brothers dared to disobey Mr. Yang publicly, nor did they embarrass Yang Youyun, but instead took the secret path.

Under the operation of caring people, the board of directors has been urging Yang Youyun and Jiang Chiyu to complete the Jinshi Group's shareholding plan as soon as possible.Judging from the existing data, the advantages of taking over Jinshi do outweigh the disadvantages.However, after Jiang Chiyu's investigation during this period, he was even more sure that Jin Shi's background and Jian Ge himself would be an extremely unstable factor.

It's not that you can't take risks for the immediate benefit, and after the big deal is done, the founder, Brother Jian, will be emptied.But Guihu has money and resources. If it is to expand the market in H City, there are better ways to go. There is no need to take this risk, and it will not leave opportunities for people to take advantage of.

Of course, these contents are difficult to reflect in the evaluation certificate issued by Guihu.

Obviously, Yang Youyun's brothers also knew this, so they actively put pressure on Yang Youyun through the board of directors, trying to force her to complete the investment in Jinshi Group.

If Yang Youyun opposes it to the end, then she will act arbitrarily and provoke her relationship with the shareholders' meeting, so that she will not be able to participate in the board of directors.If Yang Youyun resolutely jumped into this pit, she only needs to use some means to make the time bomb planted early explode. When the project in H City is in crisis, her brothers will not only be able to save the scene, but also logically. If he takes over, Yang Youyun will also be sentenced out.

Now Jiang Chi temporarily slowed down the project process on the grounds that Jinshi Group should deal with the debt first.But Yang Youyun's brothers pressed on every step of the way, this excuse cannot be delayed for too long.

The car downstairs didn't start for a long time, and Yu Duo was still standing at the window.Lin Shengnan came forward from behind with a cup of tea, looked at the scarlet cigarette butt outside the car window, and said, "Such a beautiful woman is by his side all day, so you can rest assured."

Yu Duo's eyes flickered, and he looked back: "Otherwise, what should I do?"

"Zhang Yu's cell phone fell on the sofa." Lin Shengnan pouted in the direction of the door, with a double meaning: "Do you want to chase him back?"

What Yu Duo thought was: What kind of stupid question is this.But the body made its own decisions, came to the sofa without authorization, picked up the phone, opened the door and chased it out.

The elevator quickly reached the bottom floor, and the elevator doors opened to both sides. Jiang Chiyu was standing outside the door. Presumably, he also found that he had dropped his mobile phone, so he turned back.

"Mobile phone." Yu Duo collected himself, walked out of the elevator, and handed him the mobile phone in his hand.

Yu Duo may have trotted all the way down, and his breathing was a little short of breath. Jiang Chiyu watched him walking towards him with a smile on his face, his heart was already full of grass, and he pretended to be calm and said "Thank you."

The instigator was ignorant, and took out a handful of silly candy from his pocket, and held it in front of Jiang Chiyu: "Candy."

Jiang Chiyu is also a talkative person in Guihu, and now obediently puts the candies into his pockets. I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect. He feels that these sweet and greasy candies seem to have a miraculous effect on quitting smoking. .

At this moment, the mobile phone was also returned, and the candy was also delivered. Just as the elevator door was closing behind him, Yu Duo reached out to block it, then turned around and said to Jiang Chiyu: "Then I will..."

Before he could finish his sentence, a delivery boy from the supermarket rushed in from the gate like a small cannonball carrying a large bag.

The little brother didn't expect that there were still two people standing in the corridor in the middle of the night. He couldn't react in time, and he was about to bump into Yu Duo.Fortunately, Jiang Chiyu had quick eyesight and quick hands, and grabbed Yu Duo's shoulders and brought him to his side, so that he was not knocked straight.

The delivery guy jumped into the elevator at the last second, and at almost the same time, Yu Duo was staggered by Jiang Chiyu and threw himself into his arms.

The elevator door closed behind the two, and the only light source gradually moved away, and the stairwell was plunged into darkness.

And under the cover of night, the two people just maintained the posture of embracing each other, and neither of them retreated.

The number on the floor display continued to rise, and after reaching the top floor, it gradually decreased.In this silent countdown, whose chest is tightly pressed against each other, whose cheek is buried on whose shoulder, whose hand is carefully climbing onto whose back, and gently grabs his clothes .

The elevator door opened again, and the lights in the stairwell came on. The delivery boy walked out of the elevator with easy steps, and saw the two people standing outside the door and staring at each other.

The little brother thought that he caused Yu Duo to miss the elevator, so he patted him on the shoulder familiarly, and said apologetically, "Hey, brother, I'm really sorry just now, the order is almost over."

Yu Duo coughed lightly, trying to cover up, and said, "It's okay, I understand."

Jiang Chiyu lowered his head and straightened his messy front, and said to Yu Duo, "Go up, I'm leaving."

Yu Duo came back to his senses and said, "Okay, be careful on the road."
