Chapter 28
"What are you looking at?"
It was a sunny, cloudless day in the sky, the windows of the master bedroom were half open, and the light-colored curtains were fluttering in the wind between the eye-catching iron fences.
Sensing that the door was pushed open, the body of the woman standing in the bright light froze imperceptibly.
"It's you." She turned her head slowly, trying to squeeze out a smile, "What do you want me to do?"
The boy's developmental period came late, and he had to look up to her at this time.
With slender eyebrows and curved pupils, she has an extremely photogenic, classic and gorgeous face. Even at home, without much makeup, she is still very beautiful and charming. It is hard for people not to feel pity for her.
"Are you going to jump off?"
"what are you saying?"
It's too conspicuous.She thought she was hiding her panic and other emotions well, but in fact he could see through them at a glance.
"I asked you if you were going to jump? Because you've been staring out the window like you really want to get out."
As if he had said something terribly terrible, the smile on her face disappeared little by little.
What's so scary about him?He couldn't understand why she was so afraid of herself, just like she was afraid of that person.
They are obviously different individuals, but in her eyes, there seems to be no difference, they are all existences that will hurt her.
No, there is still a little difference in what to say, because she would never say such a thing to that person.
"Why did I jump down?" She swept back and forth behind him with suspicious eyes, "Why are you making such a joke all of a sudden?"
She had forced their conversation down to a joke, but he rarely joked, he hadn't been a very pleasant kid, and he knew it.
"He's not at home." He entered the room and closed the door, "You can go, I won't tell him. Do you know anyone, let them take you in, or go to a hotel, I know your Passports are placed in..."
passport.This word seemed to be a taboo that could not be mentioned, and the last bit of blood disappeared from her face.
There were only the two of them in the room, but looking at her, it seemed that there would be a spying eye somewhere.
She looked around vigilantly, "Stop talking!"
Deliberately lowering his voice to be sharp and distorted, he stopped and stared blankly at her distorted face due to panic, "Why? Is there something wrong with what I said?"
——Didn't he say it for her own good?
"Be obedient, don't talk about it in the future, I said I won't leave, and I won't leave in the future..."
She hugged him so tightly that he couldn't tell whether it was her trembling or the illusion of suffocation and pain, "Didn't you say that I will stay with you at home all this time? What do you want for lunch? , I'll make it for you, let's go to dinner now, and everything will never happen, otherwise..."
Nothing ever happened.After understanding why she appealed, he felt even more confused.
How can something that has already happened and will continue to continue in the future be regarded as not existing?
One morning in late April, after taking Xie Jingchi to school, the driver changed the direction of the car.
At ten o'clock this morning, Qin Group will hold a board meeting in the conference center on the 32nd floor of Xingchuan Building to review the company's previous quarterly report and other related matters and determine the business policy for the next quarter.
Before the meeting starts, Qin Shen usually chooses to deal with some mechanical signing work and save his energy for the next high-intensity report.
As an assistant to the chairman, it was Jiang Yu's job to communicate with the secretary.
The notice of the meeting had been sent to all board members ten days in advance. Jiang Yu told him that three directors were unable to attend in person due to health and business reasons, and two of them could participate remotely.
When the blue outline of the conference building could be vaguely seen ahead, Qin Shen opened his eyes and asked Jiang Yu an irrelevant question, "Have you booked your ticket yet?"
"It's already booked." Jiang Yu wasn't too surprised, and said in a businesslike manner, "The flight ticket at 26:[-] am on the [-]th needs a transfer halfway."
That date on the calendar is coming soon. Last year, due to one or another reason, the trip was not possible. If there is no accident, I will definitely go this year.
This is the fourth year of being an assistant to this person for three years, and Jiang Yu obviously understands this.
"Ah."
It takes at least two and a half days to go back and forth, which is not much different than usual.
Jiang Yu observed his reaction, "Do you want to speak to Xie Jingchi?"
Before he knew it, Xie Jingchi had been living on Nan'an Road for more than a month. If there was no major event, he would be sent to school first and then to the company.
At the same time, with the promotion of Xie Mingyao and the acquiescence of many parties, the news that he will become Qin Shen's future partner spreads more and more widely.
Since no one came forward to refute, Jiang Yu believed that the boss had the right to know if his boss was going on a business trip or could not go home due to other matters.
"Just say that I'm going on a business trip." Qin Shen paused for a moment, then looked further afield, "He doesn't need to know about this."
Jiang Yu was stunned for a while, "I see."
Before the meeting was about to start, Qin Shen read the financial statements of the previous quarter again in the lounge.
More than half of April has passed, and the peach blossoms in Puchun Garden are blooming and withering. The humid and warm spring in Yungang City is coming to an end, showing a faint sign of summer.
Everything was completely different from the city he remembered.
He was born in Toronto and grew up there until he was 13 years old.
After the age of 13, he was taken back to Yungang by his grandfather, changed his name, said goodbye to everything in the past, accepted the education and language here, and became the sole legal heir of the other party.
No one knows what his life was like in the first 13 years, and many times even he himself thinks he has forgotten those things.
Toronto's spring is very cold, and summer is not necessarily so hot. There are a little more people than other cities, but not so many compared with Yungang City.
He can't tell whether he likes it or not, maybe he does, but under the wash of those memories, this feeling doesn't seem to be very important.
It's better for people like him not to have too many feelings.
There are many things at work before and after the group meeting.The profit in the last quarter was not satisfactory, the management of the subsidiary company left, and the middle and high-level managers were reshuffled... He was required to make decisions.
Qin Shen got home very late that day, almost two o'clock the next day.
The lighting in the elevators and walkways is subdued.After he entered, except for the wall lamp in the entrance, which was on, the rest of the room was dark.
Xie Jingchi must have fallen asleep at this point, exhausted so that he didn't think too much, just loosened his tie, and took off his slightly wrinkled suit and put it on his arm.
When he passed the living room, he saw two pieces of paper on the coffee table, and he picked them up to have a look because he didn't know how to define them.
It's Xie Jingchi's test report card.
Qin Shen frowned, he remembered that Xie Jingchi said this last week, but he didn't know what Xie Jingchi meant by putting the report card here - Xie Jingchi would be there when the sun was shining on the weekend or when he was not at home study in the living room.Most of the time, Xie Jingchi is a person with good habits, but occasionally, he will forget some of his things on the table, so it is difficult for him to determine whether this is unintentional or intentional.
With a full score of 150 in mathematics, Xie Jingchi scored 75, which is exactly half of it.Although he had known for a long time that Xie Jingchi's grades in school were not good, but it was the first time he saw such a horrible test result with his own eyes.
What are you learning.Jiang Yu's complaints flashed through his mind.He pinched the bridge of his nose and chose not to say anything.
After reading the scores in the last column, he sighed lightly, and then set his eyes on another piece of paper.
After seeing clearly what this piece of paper was for, he was finally able to be sure that Xie Jingchi must have done it on purpose.
