Midsummer Night.

The air was humid and hot.The hot wind blows the gauze curtain, and the bright moonlight shines into the unlit room.

Chu Ci was wrapped in a man's arms, sweating profusely.The man put his hands around his chest, put his chin on his shoulder, turned his head slightly, and kissed the tip of his left ear with his lips.

Breathing with a chuckle, he called him "Xiao Ci" and "Little Young Master" in a deep voice.

As if his body had been electrified, Chu Ci opened his lips slightly, and before he could speak, his eyes turned red.

"Brother..." He whispered, trying to turn his head back, like countless times before, trying to see the man's face clearly, but the man suddenly disappeared at this moment.

He was alone in the empty room.

Chu Ci woke up with a start.

After staring at the ceiling for 5 minutes, he reached out to touch the phone by the bed.

I checked the time and checked the weather forecast.

Chicago has snow today.

He turned over and got out of bed, walked to the bathroom, splashed some water on his face, straightened up, and stared silently at the thin young man in the mirror.

His skin was fair, even a little morbid, but his delicate and beautiful features could not be concealed. The deep-set eye sockets made him look a bit like a mixed race, with a pair of eyes as bright as polished black pearls embedded in them.

At the earbone of the left ear, there is a small diamond stud earring.

Chu Ci raised his hand, caressing the earring unconsciously.

After finally sleeping for a while at dawn, I didn't expect to have such a dream again.

Sighing silently, Chu Ci leaned down again, splashed two handfuls of cold water on his face.

After washing up, he toasted two slices of bread. Chu Ci was eating while looking at his phone. The Hanglv app reminded him that the flight was still four hours away.

Gu Qi'an made a video call at this time: "I'm still not at ease after thinking about it, why don't I book a plane ticket and go back to China with you."

"No need." Chuci put his mobile phone on the middle island, put on a Bluetooth headset on his right ear, and walked into the cloakroom to change while talking to Gu Qi'an, "The company can't do without you now."

After being quiet for a few seconds, Gu Qi'an didn't insist anymore: "Okay then. I'll ask the driver to take you to the airport."

"I checked. The temperature in China is lower than in Chicago. You should wear more and bring some thick clothes." Gu Qi'an said, thinking of something, "By the way, have you brought your medicine?"

"Bring it." Chu Ci responded, putting on a thin beige sweater, and slim-fitting jeans that set off her straight and slender legs.

As he walked around in front of the camera of the mobile phone, Gu Qi'an's eyes followed him all the time, but when he saw the earring on his ear bone, he seemed to be stabbed again.

Gu Qi'an didn't change his face, and kept smiling: "I'll book you a plane ticket when the matter is over. Yaya's birthday is next month, and yesterday she was arguing that she hadn't seen you for a long time and missed you very much. It just so happened that the company opened a new I opened a French restaurant, and we will go together when you come back."

Yaya is Gu Qi'an's younger sister, she is about six years old, she is a very cute little girl.

Chu Ci hesitated for a few seconds, neither saying yes nor no: "Let's talk about it when we get back."

Gu Qi'an couldn't hide his loneliness, and sighed: "Xiaoci, I don't know how to thank you. The company has such a big funding gap, and you are needed..."

Chu Ci walked to Nakajima and picked up the phone, facing Gu Qi'an's face on the screen and said seriously: "If you say thank you again, I will turn my face off."

Gu Qi'an stared at him so as to see the excessive face, as if looking for some clues, but quickly gave up, and calmly changed the subject: "Okay, let's not talk about it. Have you talked to the agency?"

"Well, sign the contract directly after arriving, and the other party will pay in full, and the money will be credited to the account after passing the account."

Gu Qi'an didn't say anything else, but only told: "The weather forecast has snow, in case the road goes up and down, you ask the driver to drive slowly."

When he arrived at the airport, Chu Ci with a pretty face was always the focus of attention no matter where he went.

After the check-in officer took the passport, he couldn't help but look at him twice before asking, "Do you have any checked luggage, sir?"

"No." Chu Ci smiled.Because he didn't plan to stay longer, he only brought a carry-on suitcase.The intermediary said that the buyer pays in full, and the process is very fast, and the formalities can be completed within a week.After selling the house, he flew back immediately.

Before the boarding time, he stood in front of the huge French windows at the airport.The snow in the forecast came as promised, and it was coming fiercely. After a while, the sky and the earth were all white.

The same as the day he first arrived in Chicago six years ago.

It is also such a heavy snow, which has been falling without stopping.

When the boarding reminder sounded on the radio, Chu Ci withdrew his eyes, lowered his eyes to sort out his emotions, and boarded the plane with the suitcase.

-

The plane arrived at S City Airport as scheduled.

Stepping on the covered bridge, Chu Ci was immediately wrapped in a bone-piercing coolness.He shivered, gathered his coat, and before he had time to think about it, he was pushed by the crowd and walked out.

After leaving the airport, Chu Ci took a taxi.When the driver asked where he was going, he was taken aback, opened and closed his lips, and it took him a long time to report an address in an obscure way.

"No. 28, Jingnan Road."

The sky was gray, and the green belts on both sides of the expressway were covered with a layer of gloom.Dark clouds gathered, foretelling a torrential rain.

Chu Ci looked out the window.

The driver looked at him from the rearview mirror for the third time, and took the initiative to chat: "It is estimated to rain today."

After a pause, Chu Ci slowly turned his head, turning his right side towards the driver: "Excuse me, what did you just say?"

The driver repeated it.

"Really?" Chu Ci responded politely, with a very soft voice, and then turned to look out the window, "It looks like it is."

As if to confirm the driver's words, as soon as the words fell, a raindrop hit the car window, dragging out a slender slash.

A drop or two... quickly becomes dense.

The driver is good at chatting: "Are you traveling? Or are you here to visit relatives?"

Chu Ci hummed vaguely.

The driver didn't care, and said to himself, "I know the place you're talking about. Jingnan Road, that's the most expensive area in our area. There are many garden houses, and only the very rich can afford them."

After a pause, the driver continued, his voice became a little excited: "However, there was a big case on Jingnan Road a few years ago. It is said that a woman killed her husband because her husband cheated on her, and she also went crazy and committed suicide. .It was a sensation at the time."

Silver-white lightning suddenly tore through the sky, and thunder followed one after another, covering up the driver's last words.

Chu Ci shrank his shoulders, touched the ear stud of his left ear subconsciously, and said nothing, but his lips turned pale.

When approaching Jingnan Road, seeing that the rain was getting lighter, Chu Ci changed his mind and asked the driver to stop at the intersection.

Jingnan Road is very wide, and in early winter, the leaves of the phoenix trees on both sides are almost gone.

As soon as Chu Ci got out of the car, the phone rang.

After learning that Chu Ci had returned to China, the intermediary apologized: "I'm sorry Mr. Chu, I'm so sorry."

Chu Ci's heart skipped a beat: "What's wrong?"

The agent was in a hurry: "The buyer is the owner who is going to buy your house, and decided not to buy it temporarily..."

The wind mixed with raindrops blew on his face, Chu Ci raised his head, and found that the rain that had just subsided just now was getting bigger again.He paused for two seconds, turned around and walked towards a nearby bus stop, pointing out a fact in a calm tone: "I agreed to return to China only after he signed the contract of intent."

This means a cost in money and time.

"Yes." Losing a large amount of intermediary fees, the intermediary was also annoyed, "But that person insisted not to buy it, and agreed to pay liquidated damages, and also said that he would compensate you for your round-trip travel expenses. Mr. Chu, that's what the contract stipulates. If you really sign a house sale contract, you can break the contract, and I can’t help it.”

If someone else had flown back from abroad for more than ten hours, and was let off by the buyer on the eve of signing the contract, he might have been blown away.

Chu Ci walked under the awning, and the suitcase was standing on the side.Regardless of brushing the rain off his clothes, he closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said in a calm tone, "Why didn't you buy it?"

The agent hesitated for a moment, and gritted his teeth: "You know, something happened to the previous owner of this house, and the property right of the house has been in dispute, and it has only been in your name for the past two years..."

Chu Ci pursed his lower lip: "Then what should we do now?"

"I will try my best to find a new buyer for you." The intermediary said immediately, and paused, "You know, although the listed price of your house is not high, but the situation is quite special, and the full payment is required. There are limited customers, so it is not so easy to sell." easy."

Knowing that he was in a hurry to use the money, the intermediary asked tentatively, "Do you want to lower the price a bit?"

Chu Ci fell silent.The house has been hanging for two months, and the price has been lowered three times to wait for such a buyer.I don't know how long it will take for the next one.

But there is no other way, Gu Qi'an's company is waiting to use the money.He had no choice but to say: "Then please help me find it as soon as possible. As long as the other party is willing to pay the full amount, the price can be negotiated."

The intermediary should go down.

After hanging up the phone, Chu Ci looked at the time again.The phone showed that it was noon in City S, but the sun was overcast and the surroundings were as dark as evening.

The raindrops hit the canopy with a dull and chaotic sound.The rainwater flowed down the edge, forming a thick curtain, isolating him on this island-like bus stop.

Chu Ci's heart tightened, and he looked around in confusion and helplessness.

On the plane, he has been using the computer to edit the film, trying to occupy his mind with work and not think about other things.

But now, he's stuck here, forced to stop, forced to empty his mind.

Even the dim light couldn't stop the sense of familiarity rushing out from every cell in the body.

Six years.

Chu Ci touched the ear stud of his left ear, which was a subconscious move when he felt insecure.His heartbeat calmed down a little, and he was a little dazed again, his eyes didn't land on the ground, looking at the pedestrians and vehicles on the street.

Sitting in the car, Chen Xun listened to his assistant Zhou Ran report on the arrangements for the afternoon.

"Mr. Chen." Zhou Ran turned to the back seat, "Half an hour later, I will meet Mr. Shao of Junshan Capital at the hotel where he is staying. After that, I will return to the company for a monthly report meeting."

"By the way, there will be an awards dinner for the Forbes Elite Summit in the evening. You have been selected as an outstanding youth under the age of 30 this year. The organizer wants to invite you to participate."

"Push it."

Zhou Ran opened his mouth and continued, "They also proposed to do an exclusive interview with you."

Chen Xun's expression was very calm, noncommittal.He turned his head to look out the window, and suddenly frowned.

Zhou Ran followed his line of sight, and his heart sank.

The driver actually took Jingnan Road.

"How do you go this way?" Zhou Ran asked the driver Xiao He in a low voice.

Xiao He looked puzzled: "This road is the closest, and there is no traffic jam."

Zhou Ran waved his hand, signaling him to stop talking, thinking that he would explain the precautions to Xiao He again later.

He looked towards the back seat and saw that Chen Xun had withdrawn his gaze and was looking down at the information on the tablet, he was slightly relieved.

Sliding his finger on the screen, Chen Xun was a little distracted.

The sound of rain disturbed him.

He lowered his eyes, pressed his knuckles between his brows, and tried hard to suppress the turmoil in his heart, but unfortunately it had little effect.

The car stopped at the intersection and waited for the red light. When starting off, Chen Xun couldn't help but cast his eyes out of the window again.

This look made the blood in his whole body freeze instantly.

"parking!"

The black Mercedes slammed on the brakes, and the wheels rubbed against the ground making a harsh sound.

Although he was wearing a seat belt, Zhou Ran's body was still moving forward with inertia.He didn't understand why he turned back to look at Chen Xun, wanting to ask what happened, when he saw Chen Xun reaching out to open the door.

Looking away from the corner of the eye, Zhou Ran's face changed drastically: "Mr. Chen, be careful!"

Chen Xun paused.

In the next second, a truck passed by at high speed.

Zhou Ran gasped. If Chen Xun got out of the car just now, he might be hit by a truck.

He calmed down his heartbeat, but was a little puzzled.This young and promising boss has always been calm and cautious, why is he so careless today.

Zhou Ran regained his composure, and found that Chen Xun was holding the car door firmly, his eyes were fixed on one direction, and his face was tense like never before.

He has been with Chen Xun for three years, and he has never seen Chen Xun like this even on the negotiating table of company financing and investor games.

Zhou Ran was a little worried: "Mr. Chen, what's wrong with you?"

Chen Xun seemed to have never heard of it, and still looked out of the car.

If his gaze was real, it might have penetrated the car window at this moment, tightly entwining the person on the platform.

Zhou Ran looked along, only to see a taxi parked by the bus stop.

The taxi started slowly, and the platform was empty.Chen Xun said without any hesitation, "Follow me."

The next book is in advance: "After falling off the horse, he and the white moonlight tyrant have sex"

In a car accident, Shen Ci became a vegetable, and her soul traveled to another person.

Bearing her new identity, Shen Ci went to the hospital to visit her.In the advanced ward, a handsome man watched over him all night, whispered softly, massaged him, and wiped his body.

Shen Ci recognized the man as the CEO of a technology company, he was in the limelight, he was considered his competitor.

Shen Ci's heart: Thank you.

But we don't seem to know each other well.

Later, Shen Ci entered the man's company and became the man's secretary. When he found out that the man had adopted his dog, he even called out his nickname when he was drunk.

-

He Jingcheng is indifferent and restrained, no one knows that he has been secretly following Shen Ci for eight years.After Shen Ci's accident, he realized his feelings for her only belatedly.

Shen Ci became He Jingcheng's villain, no one dared to touch him.

Until he got a new secretary.

The new secretary and Shen Ci have the same habits, similar tastes, and even more the same in regular script.

One day when He Jingcheng was drunk, the new secretary took him home, threw him on the bed casually, turned his head and hugged Bian Mu who jumped up and held him high.

When I woke up the next day, I saw He Jingcheng who was being monitored in the living room: ...

He Jingcheng became suspicious.

-

Later, when Shen Ci returned to her body, He Jingcheng chased after him relentlessly.

Shen Ci couldn't stop being disturbed: "Mr. He, we don't seem to be familiar with each other."

He Jingcheng leaned closer, whispering in his ear: "Aren't you shy? I haven't seen any part of your body that I haven't seen before."

Shen Ci suddenly grabbed He Jingcheng's collar, her peach blossom eyes glistened with water: "Waiting for you for so long, why did you come to me now?"

He Jingcheng kissed the corners of his red eyes: "It's my fault, I will pay you for it for the rest of my life, do you want to?"

Only after the accident did Shen Ci know that for the past eight years, when the wisterias were in bloom, every year there was a letter from across the ocean, and the person who wrote the letter was He Jingcheng.
