Chapter 10 chapter Ten

I rang the doorbell for room 1607 and there was no answer. I hesitated at the door, what exactly did Akun's words mean... Do I want to go in? I have nothing to do with Zheng Kaiwen. My current boss is against Zheng Kaiwen, if I meet him again, what will Du Zeshan think?Du Zeshan made it clear that he was a suspicious and vicious character.If he was so unlucky to be a gangster, he would definitely kill me and quarter my body.Even if he wasn't, I would definitely lose my job because of Zheng Kaiwen. I thought so, and walked back slowly. But…… As I got farther and farther away from room 1607, my heart beat faster and faster and became more and more restless.

I finally rushed downstairs to the front desk and asked the front desk clerk to open the door for me.After all my affirmative requests, the manager on duty finally agreed to open the door with me. Are they still afraid of my robbery? The door lock clicked, and the manager on duty opened the door first and went in. But I rushed faster than him. Zheng Kaiwen was indeed in the room.He was lying on his back on the bed, still wearing a suit and tie, and his shoes were still on, with one hand resting on his forehead, his cheeks were burning red, and beads of sweat dripped from his forehead. The jug on the bedside table was empty, the cup was overturned, and there was not a drop of water.

This guy was so ill and confused that Akun actually left him and ran away alone. "Miss, do you want to call an ambulance?" Seeing this scene, the manager on duty asked very attentively. He just stopped me as a robber. "No, I'll do it myself." After the manager on duty left, I hurriedly settled Zheng Kaiwen, untied his tie, my neck was covered with sweat, and my shirt was sticking to my body wetly. The towel wiped him roughly.I got an ice pack and applied it to his forehead, then took the room card from the bedside table. He was half awake in a daze, opened his eyes and glanced at me, called out "Luo Xin" in a daze, then turned his head and fell asleep again.

My heart was tangled for a while.No matter how much he usually calls the wind and rain, he can't imagine that there is not even a caretaker around him when he is so sick.People say that high places are too cold, how high can he stand?Even ended up so alone and lonely.No wonder I felt so lonely and cold when I saw his back on Binjiang Avenue that time. He was still calling my name in a low voice, but I had already turned my head and walked out of the room. Back home, I cooked a pot of porridge in a hurry. Yan Xiaonan was woken up by me, looked at me sleepily and said, "It's the middle of the night, what do you cook for? If you're hungry, just order takeaway."

"The takeaway is off work early." I rummaged through the cabinet, but couldn't find any antipyretics. "Xiaonan, where's the cold medicine?" "I'm done eating." "Finish?" The medicine jar. "You take medicine for food!" "If you can't sleep, just take some. It's safer than sleeping pills anyway." Yan Xiaonan fell back to sleep in a daze.I hurried downstairs to buy medicine and returned to the hotel.Zheng Kaiwen is still asleep. It seems that since I left, he hasn't even changed his sleeping position, and there is no sign of waking up at all.

If I hadn't shown up, would this person have just died of illness here? Then tomorrow morning's headline must be Zheng Kaiwen's big black and white profile picture, and even the news of the US invasion of Iraq has to be sidelined. I probed his forehead, it wasn't so hot anymore, but when I put my hand into his neck, it was still sweating profusely.I put down the thermos, fed him a fever-reducing medicine, and then sat quietly by the bed and waited for him to wake up. How to say. He's actually really nice, nice to me, nice... I looked at him quietly, his eyelashes were long and dense, his eyebrows were protruding, but he was always frowning slightly.How many things does this person have in his heart? Why does he always frown deeply when he falls asleep.I really want to get an iron to flatten it.I gently smoothed the fine lines between his brows with my fingers.

Thinking of the second time we met at that time, he also had a fever like this, and he went out to discuss business in a dazed way, and in the end I was kidnapped by an oolong... This man, he has never treated his body as a thing. "Is making money really that important?" I asked in a low voice. He didn't answer. After changing the ice pack twice, the fever subsided, and Zheng Kaiwen turned over and changed his sleeping position.I was lying on the side of the bed, looking at the gradually brightening sky outside the window, I don't know how long it took, and finally fell asleep.

I woke up to the constant vibration of the phone on the bedside table. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Zheng Kaiwen also seemed to wake up in a daze.I hurriedly grabbed the phone and ran to the living room to listen, but it was Akun. His first words were: "Mr. Zheng, are you okay?" I paused: "It's me." He was also taken aback for a moment, and then said: "Miss Liang, is Mr. Zheng okay?" "He had a fever, but seems to be fine now." I looked into the room with my head, Zheng Kaiwen was raising his hand to grab the ice pack on his forehead. "He seems to be waking up, when are you coming?"

"I'm in Hong Kong, and I'll be flying over right away." "What!" I was fuming, "Your boss was so sick that he passed out. You actually left him and went back to Hong Kong alone. Fortunately, you are still his confidant. I think you have betrayed your heart." A Kun didn't wait for me to finish speaking, so he hung up the phone directly. I threw away my phone angrily, and when I walked back to the bedroom, Zheng Kaiwen looked at me with wide-open eyes. "Why are you here?" he asked me. "Akun called me and asked me to come over." I went to the table and poured out the porridge in the thermos, and said, "You are so sick that you are unconscious, no one can see it."

"It was just a little cold at first, maybe because of acclimatization, it became like this." He threw away the ice pack and touched his forehead. "You have been to Shanghai several times, and you still feel uncomfortable?" This lie is really clumsy. I handed the porridge to him, he took a sip, and suddenly said, "Why is there scallop porridge?" "I'm at home..." In order not to let him think that I did this for him, I deliberately smiled and said, "Yan Xiaonan cooked it. I think there are many, so I brought some over." He lowered his head and drank the porridge in silence, then asked slowly, "Have I slept for a long time?"

"Probably more than a day." "You've been here all this time?" "No... I went home once." I slowly tightened the lid of the thermos, "I should go." Yeah, I have to go. I shouldn't have stayed here in the first place, and now I'm about to cross the line. I can't let myself take another step, so how can I turn back. I went to the chair and took the coat and put it on, and inadvertently reached out and wiped it on my neck, and I was suddenly dumbfounded. What about the necklace? I lowered my head to search under the table, under the chair, in the living room, on the sofa, on the coffee table, in the toilet... Zheng Kaiwen saw my abnormal behavior and asked me curiously: "What are you looking for?" "My necklace is gone." I was sweating profusely. He was very calm and said, "When did you find out that it was missing?" "I was still wearing it when I went out yesterday morning." I rummaged through my bag, only to find that my phone ran out of battery.I don't care about it now, so I emptied the contents of the bag and looked for it again, but I didn't see it. "Where have you been?" I tried to remember: "I... went to the company yesterday, then came here, and went home once, I don't know when I disappeared." "I'll accompany you to look for it." He said, got dressed, took the car keys on the table and went out. "Hello." I hastily pulled him back, "You're still sick." He turned around and smiled at me, shook his head and said, "It's completely fine." I looked at him suspiciously: "Really?" "Really." He took my hand behind his back and walked out, saying, "I'll drive you to find it, so it can be faster." My heart started beating wildly again.I seemed to tell him: Zheng Kaiwen, don't be so nice to me!Otherwise I will think that you are in love with me, otherwise I will be inseparable from you, otherwise I will really lose my head, desperate for you, just like I did to Jiang Yang back then, regardless of everyone’s opposition and want to be together , In the end, he was abandoned by him. He drove the car, we arrived at home all the way, Yan Xiaonan was no longer at home, maybe he went out to take some outdoor photos at night.Not at home, so I went to the company again.In the middle of the night, the security guard also kindly accompanied me to search for it, but there was still nothing.No more, really no more... I actually squatted on the ground and started crying... Zheng Kaiwen also squatted down with me, slowly wiped away my tears, and said, "Is there any place I haven't looked for?" I shook my head slowly, then suddenly remembered and said, "I went to the construction site once yesterday." He stood up without hesitation and said, "Let's go then." "But, it's very late now. And it's not guaranteed to be found if it falls on the construction site. There are all weeds and bricks...Mr. Zheng, no need." Although I yelled all the way, I was dragged out of the building by him and sent to the car. "How do you know if you don't look for it?" He fastened the seat belt for me, started the car and headed towards the Bund. Although it was very dark, it was as bright as day because of the spotlights hanging at the four corners of the construction site. As soon as I saw rocks and weeds everywhere, I was discouraged.Zheng Kaiwen took off his coat as soon as he got out of the car and got into the rubble pile on the construction site. "Do you remember walking around somewhere?" he asked me. I came back to my senses, looked around, pointed to the place where I was standing during the day yesterday, and said, "Here, I was standing here." He came over and squatted there and looked around carefully. I saw him bending over and patiently searching among the broken stones, and I felt a pang in my heart.Back then, Jiang Yang did the same, looking for contact lenses for me in the reeds.In the end, he even scratched his hand. Because of this, he submitted his graduation project late and was scolded by his tutor. I don't know how long it took until a line of hot tears flowed down my cheeks before I felt that my body had been blown cold and hard by the night wind.But Zheng Kaiwen was still squatting in the pile of rocks, looking for every stitch carefully like an embroidering girl. I wiped away my tears, strode over, grabbed him and said, "I don't want it, I don't want it, I don't want it anymore." At that moment, his hands were cold, but his body was hot. "Wait a minute, we'll find it soon." He refused to leave, and stubbornly searched for a diamond necklace the size of a soybean among the ruins all over the floor. "I won't look for it, I said I won't look for it!" I raised my voice, pulled him hard and said, "I said I won't look for it anymore!" "Wait a minute..." He stood up suddenly, his eyes focused on a place one step away.Suddenly bent down, straightened up quickly, waved a little bit of light in his hand to me, and said, "I found it!" I looked at the necklace he handed over, and my eyes became hot. "Isn't it this one?" "No...yes, it's this one." I put the necklace in my pocket, grabbed him and said, "Let's go back." He smiled, I don't know why he was happy, his expensive suit had already been scratched by rocks, the collar of his shirt was stained with sweat, and his face was even more colorful. Everything on him is more expensive than my necklace. But that necklace is my priceless treasure, only I understand, only I understand this. I saw that his hand holding the steering wheel was densely packed with tiny wounds. I couldn't help but turn my eyes red. I hurriedly turned away and asked, "Why did you help me find the necklace?" He smiled slightly and said, "Didn't I cry when I couldn't find you? I think it must be something very important to you." "It's very important." I said, "Because it was a gift from my ex-boyfriend." "So, it's important." He drove the car carelessly. I looked out the window and said, "But I said I don't need to look for it, why do you still look for it?" He tried his best to smile at me and said, "It's a very precious thing. Aren't you very anxious when you find that it's missing?" "That...that's because I got used to the belt, and suddenly found it gone, I'm not used to it." I slowly touched my neck: "But in fact, if you don't wear it, you don't wear it. It doesn't matter." He didn't speak, looked out the window and slowly turned the steering wheel. Holding the necklace, I slowly put it into the pocket of my backpack and zipped it up.If I could, I'd really like something to be dusted off and never opened again. "You go back first, I can do it myself." Back in the hotel room, he urged me to take my bag and leave quickly. But I couldn't move, looking at the wound on his hand, I couldn't help but say: "The wound on your hand, let me clean and bandage it for you." "It's okay, I'll just wash it myself." He wiped his hands with a tissue and said slowly, "You are working for Du Zeshan now. He is a very suspicious person. He sees you together with me all day and night. He will definitely be suspicious. You'd better think about how to explain it to him." I froze. I work for Du Zeshan, how would he know? Seeing my eyes full of question marks, I smiled and said: "This world is not big, and many things can be done without long legs. What's more, I have fought against that guy for so many years... He poached my people, I How can I not know at all. Many things have no legs, but they can also run.” "It's gone like wildfire." I reluctantly raised my head to glance at him, but still asked worriedly, "Are you all right? Then I'm leaving." He nodded and walked me all the way out of the room. I walked slowly and bumped into A Kun who had just come out of the elevator. When he saw me, he was very surprised but seemed very grateful, "Miss Liang, have you been here all this time?" "Yeah." I didn't know what to say to him, after thinking about it, I just said, "I'm leaving now." "Okay, sorry to trouble you." He thanked me very much and even pressed the elevator for me.I leaned against the cold elevator wall and finally let out a long breath. This time, it's really over. I am already his opponent's subordinate, and we have become an antagonistic relationship.I have no reason, nor can I expect anything more from him. As soon as I walked downstairs of the hotel, I suddenly heard someone calling me from behind, and when I turned around, I saw A Kun rushing out like flying.I don't know why, but he has already grabbed me, sweating on his forehead, panting, and said anxiously like a firefighter: "Miss Liang, Mr. Zheng has fainted."
