Chapter 9 (Nine)

His young and straightforward face was distorted, and his eyes seemed to be hurt and surprised. He said, "It's true, it's true." Su Xi took a step forward, but was held back by Zhu Lisheng. "All explanations are superfluous, he won't listen to you." Quite right. Zhu Qidong took a few steps back, turned his head, got in the car and left. Susie stamped, "Who tipped off the news." Zhu Lisheng replied softly: "Who else, Shakespeare said, the wrath of hell is not as good as the flames of a woman being mocked. She thinks we are mean to her."

It was Lei Jiazhen. "Don't fight back," Suzie begged. "Why, are you guilty? It's totally unnecessary." "No, she's my friend." Zhu Lisheng was silent. "Perhaps we can appease her by holding back." Zhu Lisheng was still silent. "She's an educated woman, and I'm sure she'll figure it out." Zhu Lisheng said: "Go back and rest.  … Suzie lay on his chest for a moment, enjoying his warmth, then turned back indoors, tired. Zhu Lisheng drove away, and he went directly to Lei's house. That apartment is the place he is most familiar with, stepping on the stairs, full of emotion.

Only redecorated a little over a year ago, and he remembers helping her choose lighting: "I like Lalique crystal because it doesn't shine" "Up to you" "But the whole house needs that number, a lawyer has limited income" "Please accept me "Then I'm sorry." He reached out and rang the bell. The hostess came out and opened the door herself. "Can I come in?" She swallowed hard. He walked into the familiar living room and sat on the most comfortable sofa. He knew exactly where the wine bottles were kept and where the light switches were.

At the moment, he is just tired. He said softly: "Please stop." "Can." "Please tell me the terms." "Leave Suzie immediately." "We will be married soon." "I've been waiting for your proposal for twenty years." "I know, sorry." "Why did she come without trouble?" "Don't pay attention to other people's fate, just say what you want." "We have such a deep relationship, you have only known her for dozens of days." "I know." "why?" "I can't explain it."

"Did you ever love me?" "I used to love you deeply." "what happened "Maybe the years have worn away all good feelings." She covered her face with her hands, "Please don't leave me." "I have to go, please stop your secret revealing action, believe me, the final loss is yours." "You don't think about me at all." "I protect her, and I protect you even more." "I do not believe." "Please state your terms." She stared at him, and he said word by word: "I would like to cut open your chest and tear out your heart."

He is silent. "Will you agree?" "Before you hurt Qidong, I might think about it." "It's up to me again, Qidong will know everything sooner or later." "It would have been different if I had told him myself." "You robbed your son of his girlfriend." "She's already planning to break up with him." "You married your son's girlfriend, you sinful man." "I am willing to pay the price to atone for my sins." "I don't want your money." "Jia Zhen, I know you as well as you know me. You have worked for nearly twenty years and have a good income, but no savings. The boss has always said that he will accept you as a partner, but he never intends to put it into practice. Listening to you complaining about being tired, your ideal retirement life is to open... a salon-style bookstore, but you lack funds."

Lei Jiazhen's face became even paler, and suddenly there were many wrinkles on her face, covering up all her vigor. "I can fulfill you." Lei Jiazhen shed tears. Zhu Lisheng let her express her emotions. After a while he said, "I'll send someone to deliver the promissory note tomorrow." "Money won't make up for my wounds." Zhu Lisheng sighed, "Perhaps, it can help the wound heal quickly." Lei Jiazhen knew that she had no choice. Zhu Lisheng smiled wryly, "If Su Fulai was alive, he would definitely stop. Why would he choose you and me to be the notary of the will? Wouldn't you and I be more depraved than his children?"

He opened the door and left. This is a fallen world at all. Maybe Su Fulai just wants to prove one thing: I am certainly not a saint, and you are not much better. Suzy guessed where Zhu Lisheng had gone. It's that woman's home. They always call another woman that woman. Suzie was impressed, as a child.When I was a teenager, when I was young, my mother would mention that woman. Susie always thought that Mrs. Su was an old monster with a green face and sharp teeth. She didn't know that there are many shades of gray between black and white until she was an adult. Early the next morning, while she was washing and washing, Zhu Lisheng had already come to look for her.

Susie liked that, he would always come out himself, and never ask a secretary to do it for him. Susie has heard about a girlfriend's experience. The secretary dialed the phone to send flowers to her boyfriend. He never knew what flowers the florist sent out. Jewelry and clothes were all selected by the secretary. In the end, the girl married the man. secretary. In the early morning, it was rare that the two of them were in good spirits, and Susie could still smell the shaving water on his body. He took her hands and said earnestly, "Susie, let's get married." Suzy looked at him and smiled, "Now?"

"Nowadays." "I need to think about it." "No more than ten minutes." Suzy stared at him. If she loses this opportunity, her fate will be like a mixture of Lei Jiazhen and her mother. " No, no, why should she compare with Lei Jiazhen, how capable and decisive he is, and has professional qualifications. Susie was full of emotions, and the fork in fate was in front of her. Zhu Lisheng took out a small light blue box from his pocket, and at a glance he knew it was the famous Tiefenni jewelry, and it must be an engagement ring inside. She asked softly: "Where are the flowers?"

Zhu Lisheng then took out a bunch of small purple forget-me-nots from his top lapel. Only forget-me-nots can be placed in the placket. Suzy gently opened the box. The diamond ring is not very big, moderate in size, simple in style and convenient to wear every day, but of high quality, sparkling in the sun. My mother never had a wedding ring in her life. Suzy burst into tears. A broken family does not necessarily affect the future of the children, but the children's outlook on life will definitely change as a result. Suzie put the ring on her left ring finger and said, "Yes." Zhu Lisheng kissed her hand deeply. "Where is the registration Ye Susi asked him. "Anywhere in the world." "I prefer a quieter wedding." "I will respect your wishes." Suzy hugged him, "Let's get married today." Both of them are afraid of long nights and dreams. "What else do you want?" "free." "You can keep everything you had before marriage." "I'm very grateful." Zhu Lisheng smiled, "It's time to go to work." Susie took her coat. "Maybe you want to work in a larger advertising company?" "We will discuss it later." "I know Macro Advertising is looking for a partner." "worth considering." Zhu Lisheng suddenly reached out and rubbed the curly hair on top of her head. He didn't believe in his luck, such a lovely person belonged to him from now on. When he arrived at the company, he opened the office and saw Zhu Qiying. Susie immediately went up to meet her, "Qiying." Qiying held her hand. "I need friends badly," Suzy said. Qiying said: "I understand how you feel, but Qidong is very embarrassed." "Your father told you." "Yes, he informed me last night." Zhu Lisheng handled it very well. The beautiful Qiying said: "I have always hoped that my parents would find happiness, remarry, and even have children. Many friends hate their parents' remarriage. I am an exception. Children should not be selfish. I wish you all the best." "Qiying, you are an angel." The secretary pushed the door in and saw them hugging, and immediately dodged. Susie asked softly: "Aren't you afraid that I will divide half of his property?" Qiying smiled, "One thing, it's his property, let him handle it as he pleases, and there must be a reason why such a shrewd businessman is willing to share half of the property, and it's inconvenient for the children to interfere." Zhu Qiying was so sensible. "Please love each other." "yes." Qiying said: "I set off to Algiers for vacation with my friends in the afternoon." "Good luck on your journey." The whole world is Zhu Qiying's playground, she has her way of life style, leisurely. The boss, Lao Lu, opened the door and came in. "Susie, are you getting married?" "Who said this?" "Words have spread all over the city. Well, if you want to be ignorant, you can't do it yourself." "Will you leave us after marriage?" "Unless you fire me." "Susie you are amazing." "Why did you recruit me in the first place?" Lu replied: "Because I knew you would inherit a large amount of inheritance. Also, you will marry into a wealthy family and bring your old colleagues as partners." Suzie can't help but laugh. "Are you right?" "The first half was all wrong." "What about the second half?" "If there is a chance to show great success, I will definitely ask for your advice." Old Lu was overjoyed. The secretary came in, "Miss Su has a guest looking for you." She walked into the reception room, this time the guest was Su Jin. "How are you?" Suzie greeted warmly. She pours her a cup of tea. Su Jin has a thin face, but he is in good spirits. Suzie said, "Congratulations, you are already a billionaire girl." Su Jin was puzzled, "Why?" "what why." "Why did you abstain." "I didn't do it voluntarily." "I heard that you and Zhu's father and son fell in love at the same time?" "The rumors are unreliable." "Father and son love you deeply, so start a fight?" "Su Jin, don't believe the rumors." "You are so beautiful and cute, so you are naturally in love." "Thank you." Su Jin couldn't believe his good luck, "I didn't expect my father's inheritance to be my own." "Look, he likes you the most." "In the afternoon, I will go to Lei Jiazhen's lawyer's office to sign the document." Suzy's heart skipped a beat. "How is Su Zhou doing?" "Deal with a psychiatrist every day." "And you?" Su Jin felt a burst of joy, "I want to get married." "Who is the subject?" "He's a very talented painter." "Su Jin, do you know his details?" Su Jin looked at his sister and smiled, "What about you, how much do you know about your lover?" Susie clattered. "It's just luck, everyone." She sighed. Su Jin smiled. Susie still wanted to talk, but suddenly felt someone peeping at the door. who?She looked up, there was no such sneaky person in the company. Su Jin already laughed, "Susie, let me introduce you." The man walked in, tall and thin, with wide gums as the most prominent part of the whole face, adult appearance is not important, but his temperament is also very bad, he can't stand steadily for some reason, and his body is always leaning to one side. His eyes were flexible, looking Suzie up and down, circling greedily on her body. Su Jin couldn't see these bad deeds at all. She flattered him and said, "Susie, this is the painter Pan Piwen." Suzy nodded, thinking to herself: This is the most sneaky artist she has ever seen. People who do literary and artistic work are so strange. The top group is always in high spirits, chic and moving, while the bottom layer is just the opposite, carefree and wretched. Su Xi had no choice but to say to Su Jin, "Take care of yourself." Su Jin said, "You too." When she got to the door, she turned around with a smile again, "Look at my memory, what did I do here? I came here specially to send you a post." He opened his handbag and took out an invitation card for Susie. Su Xi took a look and saw that it was an invitation card for Pan's painting exhibition reception. Su Jin said, "Remember to come early." Susie had a feeling that this sister's inheritance would go quickly. However, if that person makes her happy, it is a rare thing after all, and it has nothing to do with others. How many pairs of golden and jade girls have you seen?Most men and women in the world match in all kinds of strange ways. Susie watched her sister's back. She called the secretary: "Use your name to order ten luxurious flower baskets and send them to this address, and I will settle the account." Otherwise, what's the use of asking relatives to come. The secretary said, "We heard about this batch of wedding dresses from New York." At first glance, it is the design of Vera Wang. Several models are very simple and unique, and Suzie can't put it down. Other things come suddenly and you will be caught off guard, but marriage is different. Suddenly, Susie remembered that the stack of wedding dresses fell to the ground before her mother was notified. She sat down slowly. The secretary smiled, "Miss Su, which one to choose?" Susie came back to her senses, "It's not exposed, it's wrapped around the chest and back, but it's still charming and light." "I see, I'll take your measurements back to them." "thanks." Susie checked the time and immediately asked her mother to meet. "I heard that Hengyangchun's steamed buns are delicious." "Mom, let's meet at home, I have something to say." She rushed off. When Ms. Huang saw the flashing ring on her daughter's hand, she understood. "Who is it?" she asked with a smile. "Zhu Lisheng." Ms. Huang was stunned. This reaction was expected by Suzy. "You intend to get married formally." "yes." "He should be around my age." "I believe so." Ms. Huang sat down, "Have you thought about it?" Suzy replied honestly, "I didn't think very far." "Twenty years later, when he is aging, his memory is declining, his body is weakening, and he is even sick, will you take care of him?" "I didn't think about it, Mom, twenty years! Maybe we have separated long ago, maybe he has a crush on a younger woman than me, and maybe I have a strange intractable disease earlier than him." "You've decided." "Marriage is a rare thing, mother, bless me." "I support you." Suzy hugged her mother tightly. "Now you can tell me what you find good in him." "He is rich." Ms. Huang let out a laugh. "He will marry." "It's so rare." The mother's voice was a little sarcastic. Suzy pretended not to hear, "Also, he is very considerate and puts me first, so I feel safe." Ms. Huang was silent. "It feels so good." Suzie wrapped her arms around her body. Ms. Huang nodded, "This home has not given you warmth since childhood." "A lot of friends are attracted to older men, it has nothing to do with family." "You'd be considerate of your mother for saying that." Suzy smiled. "When you marry such a person, you don't have to worry about everything." "Look, Mom, I have good eyesight." Ms. Huang exhaled, "Nothing is perfect." "Well said, everyone has a dark side. If you admit this fact, you can live comfortably in the future. He is already the best man I have ever seen. I will defend him anytime and anywhere." Ms. Huang stared at Suzy, "Just loving him at this moment is enough." "We're going to travel and get married." Ms. Huang went to stand on the terrace, and did not return indoors for a long time. Suzy knew that her mother had gone back in time. Yes, Huang Yaoxiang remembered that Su Fulai also traveled with her on honeymoon and stayed in Europe for a whole month. It was truly the happiest month of her life. Everywhere he went, Su Bi said: "Let's get married here." But in the end it was not officially registered. It has been dragging until Huang Yaoxiang is old and pearly, don't laugh, for a woman who has no ability to make a living, this is indeed the case, and he just left. Susie didn't want to disturb her mother, she left quietly. One day later, she went to see a preview of Pan's works. As a courtesy, she ordered three or two works, and the staff immediately posted the words "Miss Susie Appreciates". Su Xi didn't know what kind of work it was. The colors were very muddy, the lines were not clear, and the composition was childish, but she had to give Su Jin some face. Before the reception started, Su Jin greeted him. "Here and here." She called Suzie into the break room. Susie went in with a smile, and when she saw the situation inside, she was stunned. That Pan Piwen was squatting in front of a coffee table, and on the low table was a mirror, and the white powder on the mirror surface was arranged in thin rows. Suzy is not from the country, of course she knows what kind of fan this is. She was so shocked that she couldn't speak. The painter raised his head and grinned, causing Suzy to take two steps back. I saw that he was affected by the anesthetic, his face showed excitement, his eyes were yellow, and he was indescribably scary. Susie's hair stood on end, and she retreated out of the small room before taking a breath. She gave birth to bad omens. Su Jin came out and said to Su Xi, "Have you tried it?" Susie shook her head quickly. "Come and try it too, you will be full of energy and worry-free from now on." Susie held Su Jin's hand anxiously, "You must not." Su Jin shook off Su Xi's grip, and said with a smile, "What do you know, otherwise, how would you get inspiration." Susie's hands trembled, "Su Jin, you have to get away from this person quickly." Su Jin didn't seem to understand, "What are you talking about? He is my lover." "Su Jin, follow me!" Su Xi stared at Su Jin, her eyes were extremely bright, her lips were bright red, but her face was thin and haggard like a skeleton, such a strange contrast was the characteristic of deep poisoning. Suzy burst into tears. At this time, Mrs. Pan appeared, and he waved to Susie, "Come here, come here, do you want to be as happy as a fairy?" Suzie suddenly calmed down for a split second. She firmly said "No." and turned away. She comforted her distressed heart: that is not your real sister, don't worry to such an extent, besides, you have done your duty, an adult has his own direction and is not influenced by others. But that night, he had chaotic dreams again and again, uncontrollable. She screamed and gasped. Early the next morning, she took a cold shower and went out for a run. The sun has just come out, and the morning light is extremely spectacular no matter which city it is in, Susie's mind relaxes. Don't be too pessimistic, don't think things too badly, everyone has their own way of life. After running for a kilometer, I stopped and rested, and found a shadow beside me.
