. The moment she touched him, he let out a hiss, nearly falling himself.She suddenly remembered that this man was probably covered in wounds. Without a word, she supported his arm and limped slowly to...In the midst of wind and rain, a woman walked out from the East Emperor Building and into the storm. She found an umbrella in a storage cabinet. No matter how hateful that man was, there was one thing he said right.
She was a deserter, a coward.
But, how can I bear it
He walked to the roadside, where a black Bentley was already waiting.
At first glance, it was immediately recognizable. Who else could the owner of that car be besides the arrogant Shen Xiujin
He walked over, the window glass rolled down, revealing the face of the person in the driver's seat.
"Miss Jian, please get in the car." Shen Er got out of the car and walked around to the back seat, opening the door.
Getting into the car, Shen Er also returned to the driver's seat.
"He called you here"
When Shen Er heard the sound from the backseat, he raised his head and glanced in the rearview mirror. The rearview mirror reflected the woman in the backseat. She was very quiet, her face turned sideways, staring silently out the car window.
Shen Er couldn't figure this woman out. Just two hours ago, she had rushed out of that building in a manic state. At that time, her body was filled with despair, almost overflowing. It was so palpable that even he, a 180-centimeter tall man, could feel the genuine despair and fear radiating from her.
Shen Er cautiously glanced at the woman in the back seat through the rearview mirror... It was too quiet.
"Well, Mr. Shen asked me to wait for you downstairs in the car."
Jian Tong gazed out the window, but she couldn't actually see what was outside. The rain had soaked the glass, making it blurry. But her gaze was distant, as if lost in thought. The car drove smoothly along the road until they got off, and Shen Er never guessed what the woman in the backseat was thinking.
Witnessing her despair and then seeing her calmness... a strange contrast.
"Ms. Jian, we've arrived."
Jian Tong only then lowered the window a little, and clearly saw the four golden characters "Wei Ai Foundation" not far away. A slight smile curved her lips: “I never said I was coming to ‘Wei Ai’.”
"The Boss said that no matter where Miss Jian goes, she must first come to 'Weilai'."
"Go to 'Zero Degree Coffee'."
"But Bo..."
"You can report to him, but right now, I'm going to 'Zero'."
Shen Er had a slight displeasure, and then heard the rough voice from the back seat of the car slowly say: "Or, I can take a taxi myself."
Shen Er's lips twitched, seeing Jian Tong really push open the car door.
"Wait a moment, Miss Jian, I'll take you there."
The car drove back onto the road. In a short while, it reached "Zero Degree." Jian Tong got out of the car and didn't care whether Shen Er would call that person to report.
A private room in a coffee shop
"With a swoosh," the door swung open, and the man in the private room raised his head, letting out a nonchalant chuckle. "It's been ages, you've grown."
Jian Tong hung his head and stared at his feet, not uttering a word, waiting for his next sarcastic remark.
"She's really good at charming men."
When Xiao Heng said this, Jian Tong was not surprised. She lowered her head and looked at the ground. In the corner that Xiao Heng couldn't see, she gently curled her lips, the sharp pain in her eyes, too late to show, had already disappeared without a trace: "Xiao Heng."
Jian Tong, who had always called him "Mr. Xiao," unprecedentedly blurted out his name. The man suddenly flared up in anger: "Who allowed you to call my name Hearing my name from your mouth makes me feel sick."
Jian Tong glanced at Xiao Heng, silently took out her phone, opened a video, and pushed it in front of Xiao Heng. She remained silent, her eyes fixed on the man's face.
The video was very short, less than a minute, but the moment Xiao Hang saw it, the thing that Jian Tong had always refused to believe deep down in her heart was confirmed.
>
Xiao Heng was furious, "Jian Tong, you slut, are you lecturing me"
This kind of woman, does she even deserve to talk about life philosophy with him Despicable "I could be more despicable than you Playing the victim card, pretending to be helpless, flirting with me, and now with Shen Xiujin," Xiao Heng mentioned Shen Xiujin, becoming even more unrestrained, "Hmph," suddenly let out a sneer: "I'm actually curious, what did you use to seduce Mr. Shen this time"
Long fingers reached out, hooking beneath Jian Tong's chin, "What is it Your body Or your... filth"
Jian Tong's vital energy surged, the blood draining from her face. She never expected such humiliating words to come from Xiao Heng's mouth... or rather, she had anticipated that Xiao Heng would humiliate her, but she hadn't expected him to be so utterly shameless, to insult her to this absolute degree.
"Let go."
A rough voice spoke softly, but if you listened carefully, the calm tone concealed a surge of emotion, far from as tranquil as it appeared.
"Oh What are you putting on"
Jian Tong looked up, directly at the young boy in front of her. She vaguely remembered when they first met, he was just like this, carefree and indifferent. After getting to know him, she knew that Xiao Heng wasn't what others perceived him to be. "Are you serious"
Xiao Heng was stunned for a moment, a wicked smile curling up at the corners of his thin lips.
With that smile, it was exactly the same as when they first met on the stairs. Everything was understood without words. Jian Tong already knew, even though she didn't want to have a direct confrontation with him, he was a sudden ray of light in her bleak world. If possible, she absolutely wouldn't want to clash with him.
But now, conflict is unavoidable.
"Xiao Heng, I don't owe you anything." The woman said in a rough voice.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Heng was furious: "Who said you don't owe me!"
"What do I owe you"
"You owe me, you owe me..." This goddamn woman, what the hell did she owe him! Why did her words just now make him feel nameless anger, nameless rage!
A man who is enraged out of shame, has never been rational.
"Xiao Heng, I don't owe you anything. In this world, the only person I owe is a dead one." She held up her phone: "I don't know where this video came from, but Xiao Heng, you must have seen it." Otherwise, the look on his face when he first saw the video was too heavy, too indifferent, as if he had seen it countless times.
Today, this video spread within my "Wei'ai" internal network. Every employee has seen it, and at this very moment, I estimate it has already spread to the outside world. Tomorrow... no, not even tomorrow, today, right now, perhaps everyone in the entire circle has already seen it.
Xiao Heng, I know very well that at this moment, I should be racing against time to control the situation from worsening. And yet, I'm using this precious time to see you… Xiao Heng, is this video your doing" Although she didn't know how this video came about, she wasn't interested in pursuing it. She didn't want to know why the footage from that day had been recorded and released.
For some reason, when Xiao Heng saw the disappointment flash across the woman's face, his heart suddenly ached. "You think this video was taken by me Oh, I wouldn't be so bored."
He gritted his teeth, yet he didn't know that this very statement was desperately trying to prove his innocence... But why did he care so much about Jian Tong's disappointment
Jian Tong reached out and firmly pulled away Xiao Heng's hand that was tightly gripping her wrist. She looked at Xiao Heng: "It's over. If you think, before today, I owed you Xiao Heng an explanation of the truth, then after you released this video, we are even." She and he were both intelligent people, so she said the video was his release, and he didn't refute it. To be honest, the video wasn't shot by him, but... in the end, it was released through his hands.
At a glance, the woman turned and left with such ease... How could she leave so effortlessly
She suddenly reached out and grabbed Jian Tong's arm, pulling her forcefully towards herself. On that handsome face, in the blink of an eye, it twisted into a ferocious grimace like a demon, "Jian Tong! If you've become a whore, don't pretend to be innocent!" She said they owed each other nothing, didn't they She had toyed with her, treating her like a fool to play with. She said they owed each other nothing, so she wanted nothing from them
Dream!
"Let's see, can someone surnamed Shen satisfy you, or can I"
He grabbed Jian Tong's arm tightly, and he urgently kissed her lips! didn't press him, and spoke again:She had wronged me in the past, and when she fell on hard times, she insisted it was because of me.Having said that, she said:To put it plainly, we have a grudge. To...
