Chapter 6 Chapter Six

When I woke up the next morning, the rain had stopped, and Zheng Kaiqi had already left.The sky was clear outside the window, Zheng Kaiwen's car drove away at some point, only that area was still dry.The rain must have stopped when he left.I had a dream all night and was very tired.My body was covered with two layers of blankets, which must have been covered by Zheng Kaiqi when he left. When I first arrived at the company, I saw a few female staff members whispering at the front desk. They saw me and hurried away.I was a little apprehensive, but when I walked to the public office area and saw that most people were still working with their heads down, I felt a little relieved.As soon as I put down my things in the office, I saw Zheng Kaiwen's secretary Anna come in, knocked on my door and said, "Ms. Liang, Mr. Zheng asked you to go to his office as soon as you arrive."

"Okay." I was about to go out, but Anna's face darkened, and I asked, "What's wrong?" Anna pulled me into the office, closed the door, and said, "Mr. Zheng came early in the morning. Although Mr. Zheng didn't give orders, I think you should be let in. But I don't know if Mr. Zheng is still there now." In the office, I think Ms. Liang should wait..." I asked, "What happened?" "I don't know either." Anna looked embarrassed.I know that as a secretary, the most taboo thing is talkative. I said: "I have a sense of propriety, and it's fine if your words are heard." After I finished speaking, I still walked out.

As soon as I arrived at the door of Zheng Kaiwen's office, I heard voices coming from inside, and my heart suddenly became flustered. After a while, I heard clearly that it was Zheng Kaiwen's voice. "At this time, you told me to stop! I have paid so much...how could I give up! If you were me, would you let go!" "Kevin, listen to your father." I had never heard this voice before, and I was curious, so I couldn't help but get closer to listen. "Stop talking!" Mr. Zheng yelled, almost deafening my ears. "In short, I will do it as I said. If you insist on doing it yourself, I will give you an explanation at the board meeting. If you don't believe me, just give it a try." After leaving these words, the door suddenly slammed open.I took a step back abruptly, but was still bumped into by Mr. Zheng.

His face was full of anger, and his gray brows were kneaded into a ball.I could only lower my head and call out "Mr. Zheng". He lowered his eyebrows and looked at me, then left without looking back.The person following him must be the one who spoke just now.When I saw his face, I didn't like it very much. His face was treacherous with a half-smile, and the eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses were seductive. But this man has been following Mr. Zheng, like a watchdog. I despise a dog but also have to look at the owner. Just as I was fascinated, there was a sudden sound of beating in the room.Anna, who had just returned to her seat, was startled and stood up abruptly.I waved to her, pushed the door open and walked in.

The paper, pencils and documents in the room were scattered all over the floor, and the large vase filled with picture scrolls by the table fell to the ground. Fortunately, the carpet on the floor was not broken.But the picture scrolls and scrolls were scattered all over the floor, Zheng Kaiwen took two steps back straightly, his shoulders fluctuated, and his back was turned to the door. It seems very angry! I looked at Zheng Kaiwen's back, feeling very uncomfortable. Hearing me come in, he shouted without looking back: "Get out!" I didn't move, he turned around and was about to get angry when he saw me, his face softened a little, he was silent for a while and said: "I want to be alone for a while." Said: "Come out with me for a while." Before I could answer, I took the coat on the hanger and left.

I slammed the door, gave Anna a wink to signal her to go in and tidy up the room, and hurriedly followed Zheng Kaiwen out. The sky became gray again, as if it didn't know when it would rain again. I followed Zheng Kaiwen all the way out of the building, and he walked silently in front, the hem of his dark gray coat swaying slightly with his steps.I was wearing a light-colored skirt and shivering with cold behind him.We just walked silently one after the other, we don't know how long we walked, and we don't know how far we walked.When he suddenly raised his head, he was already in Admiralty.

The moment I lost my mind, Zheng Kaiwen suddenly disappeared. I panicked for a moment. There were crowds of people everywhere. I pushed aside the crowd to look for it. I didn't care about the pain in my feet, and I didn't feel cold. Instead, I was sweating. If he disappears...if he disappears... What should I do if he disappears suddenly like Jiang Yang?The more I thought about it, the more scared I became. Where did he go?Suddenly, I saw his back appearing at the sign of the subway station. I hurried out of the road and was scolded by the oncoming driver who slammed on the brakes. I apologized repeatedly and ran towards the subway station without looking back.When I got off the escalator, I saw him standing in a daze at the place where the ticket was bought. I could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

He glanced at me, and I knowingly took out the only change I had on me and gave it to him.He bought a ticket at the vending machine, turned and walked towards the subway station.I hurriedly bought a ticket and followed him. The subway entered the station quickly, and he stepped on the train.Pricked by the subway door that was about to close, he clutched his shoulder and slipped in.Passengers all around looked at me. He leaned against the automatic door, looked out of the car, and didn't notice me. I couldn't help but smile wryly in my heart, it's really a born cheap life.After finally getting rid of the eccentric Jiang Yang, he met such a difficult boss again.I stood on the armrest not far behind him, carefully observing his every move.He got off the car, I got off with him, he walked to the road, and I went to the street with him.Then he walked to a ticket office, and I looked up, and it was a ferry across the sea.

He took out the thousand-yuan bills in his wallet, bought a boat ticket, and turned around and walked into the pier.I searched all over my body, but I didn't even have enough money for a boat ticket.I watched him gradually move away from me, anxiety and uneasiness rose from the bottom of my heart, and I suddenly understood that I was so unwilling to be alone again. So how can I leave him alone, he kept me by my side when I was the most helpless and down, and gave me a chance to start again, and I must never leave him when he was in trouble.No, at any time, I will never leave him alone again.

Yes, anytime. So I followed him into the Zhajikou without thinking. The ticket inspector stopped me and said, "Miss, where is your ticket?" I begged him with my hands together, and said repeatedly: "I will make up the ticket when I come back. I don't have any money with me, really. I have something urgent now, please." Let me in." As I said, my eyes kept looking at Zheng Kaiwen.The ticket inspector saw my distressed appearance, followed my gaze to look into the distance, and said, "Then remember to make up the fare when you come back." I thank God and wish I could kowtow to him.Then he rushed to the ferry, found Zheng Kaiwen in the dark crowd, took the seat behind him and sat down.

As soon as the boat left, the sea breeze blew in from all sides of the ferry.I moved in, hugged my arms and rubbed them gently.The man sitting next to me looked at me with very strange eyes, and I grinned at him.The mother-in-law sitting on the other side of me suddenly said: "Miss, if you want to look good, you can't just wear it like this. Are you shooting commercials or movies?" I shook my head at her, and the old woman murmured helplessly: "Young people nowadays don't know what to think about now. They wear so little and are not afraid of the cold." I was in a state of misery, thinking that I was about to freeze to death, what kind of movie should I be filming... when will the boat dock. After finally waiting for the boat to dock, everyone else disembarked, but Zheng Kaiwen was still sitting there lost in thought.I couldn't help complaining again and again, I fully experienced the hunger and cold of the little match girl at this moment.Although I don't know what this person is thinking, but I can understand his feelings. He wants me to accompany him, so even if he intends to sit on the ferry until he turns white, I will accompany him. A piece of news suddenly appeared on the TV on the ferry, and the female anchor said in a crisp voice: "This afternoon, the spokesperson of the Zheng Group suddenly issued a statement that he will not participate in the bidding for Shanghai Bund No. 3. This cannot help but It is strange that the Zheng Group has been actively participating in the bidding activities for Land No. 3. The investment in this project is also very considerable..." I was stunned suddenly, it turned out to be like this. No wonder he was so depressed, it turned out to be the case. Kevin Cheng flew to Shanghai a year ago, and then brought me to Hong Kong. All of this was for the Three on the Bund project.Yes, I know that.For this reason, he even set up a project team and invited top architects, actuaries, and engineers in Hong Kong with high salaries... This investment is enough for me to live happily for two lifetimes. But now, it's all over. How could he not be depressed, if it was me, I might as well commit suicide by jumping into the sea. When he saw the news on TV, he stood up suddenly and walked all the way to the railing of the ferry.At this time, a guest came on board, and I hurriedly pushed through the crowd and chased after him. When I saw him lying on the railing, my heart tightened, and I quickly walked to him and stopped. He's not going to jump into the sea, I'm just thinking about it...it won't be so accurate. Fortunately, he didn't move, just lying there in a daze. The sea breeze blew on my face, and it still hurt like a knife at first, but now I don't feel it anymore. On the other side, the neon lights first came on, the sky was gloomy, and the drizzle was slowly falling. "Actually, I was just a little bit closer. I almost succeeded." He suddenly said, as if he was talking to himself: "But they didn't give me a chance, not even the last chance." He smiled wryly Ask me back: "Do you think I am useless?" "No." I shook my head dully, my limbs were so numb from the cold, and my tongue became inflexible when I spoke. He turned to look at me, his eyes were more gloomy than the sky, and then he tried hard to bend the corners of his mouth, but he couldn't form a smile in the end. "Sorry." He said softly.My heart seemed to be grabbed by someone hard, and it hurt for a while.His eyes were astringent, and he was afraid that he would shed tears if he didn't live up to his expectations. I shook my head, choked up a bit, and said, "You don't have to tell me you're sorry, you paid my salary." "I invited you here for the project of No. 3 on the Bund in Shanghai. You have worked hard for so long, spent so much energy, invested so much money and manpower, but now it is all in vain. It is just a futile effort." .I can't do anything but say sorry to you." I still shook my head, my eyes were hot and wet. Not only because I was once again facing the crisis of unemployment, but also because he said "I'm sorry". He suddenly raised his hand to wipe the tears from my face.I was unconscious at first, but when he rubbed it lightly, I only felt a burning pain on my cheek. He held my hand and said, "Why is your face so cold? Are you cold?" I shook my head, then nodded again, my mind was muddled.He took off his coat and put it on me, tightened the neckline, and said softly: "Is it still cold?" Entered the ferry and found a corner seat to sit down. I was held tightly in his arms, my heart was pounding, and suddenly I just wanted to lean on him like this, snuggle into his arms.I don't know if it's been too long since I've been hugged by a man like this, my whole body is burning hot.The faint smell of cologne on his body, his strong arms, and his chest wider than the sky. "How did this happen?" I asked softly, "How did it happen so suddenly?" "Actually, it wasn't sudden. I knew from the beginning that my father didn't agree with me to engage in this project." He wrapped me tightly in that dress and sighed.The warm breath hit my hair, itching. "So I kept it from him from the very beginning, including the deployment of personnel and the movement of funds. I have been very careful not to let him know, who knows or..." "Then how did he know?" I asked, and suddenly felt extremely stupid. That person is their father, who has given birth to such a capable son, and his father is not a cunning old cunning.Zheng Kaiwen looked down at me, suddenly smiled, and said, "If I say it's because of you, will you blame yourself?" "Me?" I broke free from his arms suddenly and looked at him: "You said it was because of me?" "Did Cage go to your house yesterday?" I was taken aback by his question, speechless. There was no trace of questioning in his tone, and he continued: "Cage belongs to my uncle. Uncle has always opposed me to engage in this project, and he knew that my father also disapproved of my plan, so he disclosed the news. Give it to Dad, lend him his hand to stop me." I looked at him in disbelief, and couldn't believe that the big boy who laughed like a high school student would do such infernal things. He uses me! Burning with anger, my forehead slammed, and I felt that the blood in my whole body was rushing to the top of my head. "You mean, Zheng Kaiqi went to my house last night to find information about this project?" "I'm not sure, but maybe it is." He said: "Yesterday afternoon, my father suddenly called to test me about the project plan of No. 3 land. I didn't say anything. Then I was called to the office by my father I asked about this matter, I originally wanted to tell you that night, but thinking about it, there might be room for change. But I didn’t expect that I saw Cage go to your house..." "Did you see it?" I was surprised. It never occurred to me that yesterday's seemingly ordinary accident turned out to be such an intricate and meticulous layout. "I see." He said lightly, "I saw him go in with you, and I saw you turn off the lights." "us……" Big misunderstanding. But when I opened my mouth, I realized that I couldn't argue with anything.How can I make it clear? "I know you didn't disclose the news to him, but Cage is not an idiot. How can he not get what he wants?" Zheng Kaiwen comforted me and said, "Uncle even planned it in advance, even if there was no yesterday's incident , They will still come to me today and prevent me from participating in the bidding. So, it's not your fault." I turned my face away, the anger burning in my heart was like the fire of a steel furnace hardening my heart. Hello Zheng Kaiqi! He pretended to be innocent, and even treated me like a monkey.It's fine if you use me to plot against me, that's your own brother, and you actually play him along. The more I thought about it, the angrier I became, and suddenly I couldn't help crying out of aggrievedness.Zheng Kaiwen put his arms around me, I leaned on his shoulder, and heard him say softly: "Don't think about it, I will take care of it." The voice was so soft and gentle, I suddenly felt a burst of exhaustion, infinite nostalgia fell asleep. That night I had a dream, I dreamed of the lush cherry tree in front of the school. At that time, Jiang Yang and I often dated under the cherry blossom tree. In spring, the wind blows the shadows of the trees, and the cherry blossoms fall in pieces. He kissed my lips lightly. Then he suddenly took out a very ugly ceramic cup and said to me: "Birthday gift, don't throw it away." Poor cup looks like a deformity. I laughed loudly and said, "You know it's ugly, and you know I'll throw it away." But I was stared at fiercely. Later, although I hated it, I still happily insisted on using that cup, until one day, I accidentally broke it in the office.Later, I gradually understood that there are some things that you can only have once, and they cannot last forever. Yan Xiaonan said that things like money come easy and go quickly, and love is the same.I proved her theory in practice, alas, I always defy myself.So now I am careful about everything that comes to me, such as work, such as friends, and love in the future. I was afraid that if they came too quickly and easily, they would suddenly disappear from my side like Jiang Yang. But now, work, life and Zheng Kaiwen are all far away from me.
