On the second day, because Zhao Sijia lived very close to the company, she arrived at the company early, packed up her work, and prepared to move to the work outside the chairman's office on the top floor.
She was in a low mood. On the one hand, she felt that Lou Xiao's attitude towards Huo Wei made her uncomfortable, and on the other hand, she was disappointed because Huo Ming had separated from her. She only slept for two or three hours a night, basically watching the trend of public opinion on the Internet.
After Huo's clarification letter was issued, many people were discussing the content of the clarification letter at the beginning, saying that the facts could not be so plain. But when many people saw that they couldn't eat new melons, they were diverted by other things. After all, no matter how famous Huo Ming is, she is not a star, let alone her. If it is taken alone, no one may know her.
So this matter ended so plainly, logically speaking, she should be happy, but she was only relieved, and then lost uncontrollably. She didn't know what was going on with her, and even scolded herself a few times for not knowing what to do, but she just couldn't be happy.
People in the company came to work one after another, and when they saw her, they gave her a second look. Zhao Sijia didn't care, she quickly packed up her things, she went to the bathroom, planning to wash her hands before going to the top floor. Unexpectedly, when she walked to the door of the bathroom, she heard two people talking about her.
"Zhao Sijia has the nerve to come to the company. If I were her, I would definitely resign."
"You don't know who she is? I'm used to being shameless and shameless. She takes making mistakes as fun. Last time she made a mistake in the bid, and I saw her acting like a baby with Mr. Huo. Let this matter go to someone else, and you have to be fired if you don't." How about deducting your salary? Mr. Huo pointed me at me to help Zhao Sijia reorganize, and even ground coffee for Zhao Sijia. The final job is mine, and all the credit goes to Zhao Sijia. "
"Who is capable enough to climb up to Mr. Huo, even ordinary people can't do it. What's more, she has got the favor of the chairman, and she has already stepped into Huo's house to be a young mistress. We can't compare. It's a pity Miss Huo, my sister-in-law urged Mr. Huo to bully her before she came in."
"Why do you think she was promoted to be the chairman's assistant? I have a bad feeling that the good image of our company will be defeated by her sooner or later. But it's better to leave, we will be much more relaxed, and we will never have to give She cleans up the mess, and she doesn't have to pay attention to her expression all the time, lest she feel wronged, and Mr. Huo thinks we are ostracizing her."
"Stop talking, she was such a nightmare when she first came here. We just discussed it seriously and didn't pay attention to her, and her eye circles were red, actress, we were scolded by Mr. Huo. Oh, to be honest , I have always admired Mr. Huo, but after Zhao Sijia came, my image of Mr. Huo was shattered. This look is really bad, what is there to look at. "
"Miss Huo is so miserable! She was almost killed by her, poor."
"Yes, I don't believe a single word of the clarifications on the Internet. If others don't know, how can we not know? We have to pray that Mr. Huo will marry her back quickly, and let her be a rich wife like the chairman's wife, and don't come to the company Harm us."
"Yes, yes, that's it, I pray that she will marry soon!"
Zhao Sijia was so angry that her chest couldn't stop heaving, and when she heard their laughter, she couldn't listen any more, she pushed open the door and looked at them coldly, "Wang Jing, Xia Meng, is it interesting for you two to speak ill of me behind my back? Fortunately, I still regard you as a learning object, and I humbly ask you for advice if I have any questions. At that time, you were all laughing at me in your heart, right? Your personality is also worthy of working in the Huo family?"
One of them is Huo Ming's secretary and the other is Huo Ming's assistant. They usually have the most contact with Zhao Sijia, and they have to deal with things that Zhao Sijia doesn't do well. Naturally, they complain a lot, and they muttered a few words when they touched up makeup together.
Now being caught by the rightful owner, both of them were a little embarrassed, but they were all annoyed when they heard Zhao Sijia's last words.
"Zhao Sijia, have you forgotten the photo in your circle of friends? Are you worthy to talk about character with us? Which sentence did we say wrong?"
Zhao Sijia said angrily: "I work seriously, even if I don't do well, I've been making progress all the time, and I haven't been slack at all. How come you make trouble? Huo Ming sometimes gets angry and scolds you, it's me Those who intercede for you, don’t you think it’s too ugly to repay kindness like this?”
When she mentioned this, the two became even angrier.
Wang Jing stepped forward, looked directly at her and said, "Are you begging? We use you to beg? Originally, Mr. Huo meant us to vent our anger with a few words. Your so-called begging is to help us convict us. He directly asked the HR department to deduct our salary." , we have no chance to explain it!"
Xia Meng pushed Zhao Sijia away, and pulled Wang Jing out, "What can we say to her? She is innocent, kind, and beautiful. We are all scheming dogs in her eyes."
Wang Jing went out and muttered angrily, "I'm ashamed to say that I work hard. How much trouble has been caused to us this year. She is obviously a dodder, but she insists on saying that she is an independent woman. What can she do without a man? Bah! Stand again!"
Zhao Sijia was trembling with anger, staring at their backs, her eyes were red. It just so happened that someone came over to go to the bathroom at this time, and seeing her like this, he hurriedly backed away five meters away, and walked away quickly, as if he was afraid of touching her.
Zhao Sijia couldn't help shedding tears, hurried into the cubicle, locked the door and cried with her mouth covered.
She obviously has serious work, who hasn't learned yet? Both Huo Ming and Huo Tingwei praised her for making great progress. This is the Huo family's company, and the Huo family agrees with her. Why do they say that about her? If she is really attached to the Huo family, why should she work so hard? She just wants to be a rice bug and draw her favorite paintings every day. She just wants to be independent, but she is misunderstood like this.
Zhao Sijia cried for a long time until she received a call from Huo Ming. Huo Ming saw the cardboard boxes she was packing, knew she was coming, and asked where she was, but when he heard Zhao Sijia's choked up voice, he immediately became anxious.
Huo Ming knocked hard on the bathroom door, and Zhao Sijia wiped away her tears, adjusted her mood and walked out.
Huo Ming asked puzzledly: "What's the matter with you? Why are you crying? I just read it. There are no people scolding you on the Internet. In two days, no one will mention this matter again. Don't worry."
"It's not because of this, I'm fine." Zhao Sijia said in a low voice, bowed her head and wanted to leave.
Huo Ming grabbed her, "What's the matter with you? Tell me clearly, don't let me guess what you're thinking every time. If you don't tell me, how will I know? Everything is resolved, I don't understand why you are still sad. "
Zhao Sijia threw him away, and said angrily: "Do you think I'm losing my temper with you? I'm not because of you at all. Besides, we're just ordinary colleagues and ordinary friends. Why should I cry because of you? I'm because of your secretary. Bad words!"
When Huo Ming heard her say this, he always felt a little familiar, and after thinking about it, he felt a bit like Huo Wei before. When Huo Wei quarreled with him, she would deliberately speak ironically, lose her temper with him, and be unreasonable.
He had a headache, so he decided to skip the unreasonable words and ask about Wang Jing and the others.
The two of them were talking here, and a colleague passed by and heard it, and ran to tell Wang Jing and Xia Meng. The two of them have worked beside Huo Ming for more than three years, and they should belong to Huo Ming's "confidantes", but now they both raised their hearts and regretted it.
What happened to Zhao Sijia had nothing to do with them? They were all transferred, so couldn't they bear it? Now that Huo Ming found out, he still doesn't know what will happen. But they also knew in their hearts that if they did it again, they might not be able to help muttering, even outside the company. Zhao Sijia caused so much trouble for them and caused them to deduct their salaries so many times, how could they not hold back their complaints
Not long after, Huo Ming brought Zhao Sijia back, and named the two of them to go in.
Seeing Huo Ming's gloomy face, both of them knew that he was angry, so they apologized to Zhao Sijia first after entering the office.
Seeing this, Huo Ming looked at them silently for a while, and said, "Criticize colleagues, question the decision of the boss, quarrel in the company, what do you have to say?"
Wang Jing bowed her head and said, "Mr. Huo, I will be cautious in my words and deeds in the future. Zhao Sijia, I'm sorry, I hurt your self-esteem, I'm very sorry."
Xia Meng also said similar things. The two understood Huo Ming's character, they didn't justify or talk nonsense, kept bowing at ninety degrees, and apologized to Zhao Sijia repeatedly.
Huo Ming looked at Zhao Sijia, Zhao Sijia was taken aback, took a deep breath and said, "I will not forgive you, you have gone too far."
The two felt cold, but they heard Huo Ming say, "Deduct your bonus for half a year. This matter will be announced and criticized within the company. Next time, you can send a letter of resignation."
Huo's treatment is very good, and they are all people who are needed by Huo Ming's side, and the bonus for half a year is at least 50,000. With one word from Zhao Sijia, their 50,000 yuan will be gone. Moreover, the criticism must be announced within the company. At that time, the employees of the whole group, including the branch offices, will see the announcement. Will they still have to face their jobs in the future
But precisely because the job was so good, they couldn't give it up easily, even if they felt uncomfortable, they accepted it, and left the office with an ugly face. When they closed the door, they saw Zhao Sijia's unbelievable expression, and they felt even more breathless. They were fined so severely, Zhao Sijia would not be dissatisfied, right? Meeting her is really unlucky for eight lifetimes!
Zhao Sijia was really dissatisfied. She never expected that Huo Ming would keep people with such poor character. She frowned and asked, "Do you think such people can do a good job? Why do you keep them in the company?"
Huo Ming patiently explained: "They have been working with me for a long time, and I can't dismiss them casually, and if I don't use them suddenly, many things on my side will not be taken over, and it will be a mess. They talk about you behind your back, I have already punished you They, they dare not do anything to you in the future."
When Zhao Sijia came to the office with him earlier, her heart was still warm, thinking that Huo Ming was going to vent her anger for her, but now her heart was cold, and she restrained her expression and said, "I still have to report to the chairman. If Mr. Huo is fine, I will gone."
"Scarlett, are you still angry?" Huo Ming frowned in confusion.
Zhao Sijia shook her head and said, "I'm not angry. I should be doing business in the company. I'm going to get busy. Mr. Huo should be busy too."
Zhao Sijia didn't stay this time, she went out holding the cardboard box and left. She didn't insist that Huo Ming dismiss those two people, but Huo Ming fined them and publicly criticized them, which always made her feel light. Could it be that they said she was a dodder flower, that she was both powerful and upstanding, so insulting her like this was nothing to Huo Ming
Then does Huo Ming think of her in the same way
Zhao Sijia thought of the clarification letter again, and suddenly didn't dare to think deeply, because the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became, and the more confused she was about Huo Ming's feelings for her.
On the top floor, the people working around Huo Tingwei are much stricter than the people around Huo Ming, they didn't show any dislike for her, and they would say hello when they met her. But Zhao Sijia had just experienced being gossiped by colleagues, and now everyone felt that they were not trustworthy.
After she cleaned up her workstation, she uncontrollably went to the bathroom and tea room a few times, and walked lightly when she walked to the door to hear what anyone had to say. In the end, no one talked about her.
She was also sensitive to find that they were all very polite to her. This kind of politeness could not be faulted, but it was alienated, as if a barrier had been erected between them and her, and they didn't plan to break it at all, that is, they didn't plan to associate with her.
Huo Tingwei saw her after the meeting, called her into the office, and asked her if she had any discomfort and encountered any difficulties.
She really wanted to talk to Huo Tingwei about her discomfort, but after thinking about it, she found that there was nothing to say. If her complaining caused Huo Tingwei to reprimand those secretaries and special assistants, would they, like Wang Jing, think that she sued them secretly and wronged them
She didn't mean that, so she smiled and said everything was fine. Huo Tingwei was relieved when he saw this. He was very busy, so he told the first secretary to take Zhao Sijia and started working.
The first secretary gave Zhao Sijia a small amount of work to let her adapt to the rhythm of working here. She just worked at the station for a day without communicating with anyone. It was obviously a good thing to be promoted to the chairman's office, but she felt very uncomfortable, as if something was wrong.
The company's announcement criticism was sent out quickly, and only employees who logged into Huo's intranet could see it. But the criticism on such a large scale surprised all the employees. The people in the headquarters were fine, so one could guess that the punishment for these two people was severe. It was Huo Ming who helped Zhao Sijia vent her anger.
People in various branches didn't know them well, so they began to discuss, saying that the people around the general manager are so bad, how many times must they gossip behind their backs before they are publicly criticized? He is definitely the kind of person who refuses to change after repeated admonitions, and will be fired sooner or later.
There are many groups of employees, including those in various departments, branches, branches and headquarters, etc., and the relationship between people is even more complicated. Wang Jing and Xia Meng soon knew what others thought of them, and their faces were pale when they were working in the company.
Since Zhao Sijia joined the company, the workload of the two of them has increased dramatically, so it's fine if they don't get a bonus for doing so much, and their salary was deducted several times because of Zhao Sijia. This time, half a year's bonus was deducted, which made him lose face in front of the whole group's employees. This will definitely be a huge blow to their future careers. Even if they leave Huo's to apply for other companies, those companies will know about this and have opinions on them.
They didn't get rewarded for their hard work, and they were severely punished for talking too much. The two cried secretly for a long time, hating Zhao Sijia to death.
There are colleagues who have a good relationship with them in private, quietly ask the ins and outs, and don't know whether to blame them for being talkative or pity them for their bad luck. But in this way, one by one in private, in just a few days, many employees in the headquarters knew the inside story. At the same time, they all knew that they couldn't talk about Zhao Sijia, and when they mentioned it occasionally, they used "then who" to refer to it, and they mentioned it very rarely.
Zhao Sijia became an unspeakable existence in Huo's headquarters, and she didn't notice it at all, but everyone else had already kept her at arm's length, maintaining only superficial politeness and "respect". Who would dare to mess with the young mistress in the future.
Huo Wei doesn't have an employee number of Huo's, but she has no trouble entering the company's intranet, and goes to various employee groups every day to see what's new in the company. She guessed Zhao Sijia's situation from the specious words that she occasionally found using pronouns, which was exactly the same as she had expected before.
The workplace is not so easy to mess with, especially in large groups, everyone is polite and decent on the surface, and Zhao Sijia can't tell what's going on in his heart.
She read the original text three times, and already understood that it was a petting article. Huo Ming was in charge of being handsome, cool, pretentious, and pampering the heroine; Lou Xiao was in charge of assisting and helping the heroine; The male and female protagonists; Huo Wei and Cui Jing are responsible for finding fault with each other.
As the heroine, Zhao Sijia only needs to be responsible for happiness, to be tolerated, loved, and taken care of. Every time she caused trouble, being tolerated and forgiven was a sweet treat, a way to show how much they cared about her.
Her persistence in work just means that she is strong and independent in her heart, even though she is not doing well, it also means that she has such thoughts. After she and Huo Ming were happy and happy, she was relieved and no longer insisted on doing jobs she didn't like. Instead, she concentrated on painting and studied with the master painter the Huo family invited for her. Day after day, she finally drew a pretty good painting. s work.
This is the job she finally found that suits her, and it is also the job she loves.
Such a pet heroine does not need to be strong. So Huo Wei knew her weakness, so instead of being tough with her directly, she just took the rhythm and dug a hole for her, and she fell into it and couldn't get up. Maybe give her some time, and she will let the Huo family and his son discover her needs and meet her needs. But will Huo Wei give her time? of course not.
Since I can't get up by myself, let's just stay in the pit and enjoy the "gift" she gave her in return.
Huo Wei has been drawing for the past few days, and she is almost finished. Originally, she lived in the Huo family's villa, but Cui Jing made a list of the Huo family's properties, and found that Huo Tingwei gave Zhao Sijia a duplex apartment of 400 square meters, two building facades in the best location, and booked a The total value of this limited-edition car is almost 100 million!
Not to mention that Huo Tingwei and Huo Ming also gave Zhao Sijia so many gifts, including emeralds, jewelry, diamond necklaces and various famous brand clothes, all of which cost a lot of money. This is far beyond the treatment of taking care of a friend's daughter. The most important thing is that Huo Wei has no property in her hands, and the differential treatment is too obvious.
Cui Jing questioned Huo Tingwei, and Huo Tingwei actually said that he intended to marry Huo Ming and Zhao Sijia, but the two had another quarrel. Cui Jing doesn't understand Huo Tingwei's mind-filled behavior, and it's impossible for Huo Tingwei to explain to her that he wants to make up for his sweetheart's daughter, let alone tell her that he wants to use Huo Ming and Zhao Sijia's marriage to complete the love he missed at the beginning.
So in Cui Jing's eyes, Huo Tingwei's kindness to Zhao Sijia is unreasonable and inexplicable, at most he supports his son's love. In Huo Tingwei's eyes, she is narrow-minded and arguing about something.
Cui Jing disagreed with this marriage, of course Huo Ming was on Huo Tingwei's side, the father and son made Cui Jing angry and sad.
Huo Wei saw that she was also angry at home, so she simply said to her coquettishly: "Mom, let's go live somewhere else for a while? Our house is too far away from Lou Xiao's house. Lou Xiao is the chairman of Yunxiao Group and is very busy. We can't paint together because we are so far away. Besides, we are not happy at home, so we might as well go out to relax, so as not to see them angry every day."
Cui Jing loves her, especially when her husband and son are both irritating. Cui Jing entrusted someone to help, and directly bought the villa near Lou Xiao's house at a high price and put it under Huo Wei's name.
Usually no one would sell such a good villa, but Cui Jing's identity is there, and the other party's sale to her is considered a favor, and Cui Jing will naturally find a way to return it in the future. The villa was well decorated, and they asked someone to clean it up and brought some simple things to move there.
Huo Tingwei was very annoyed by the noisy behavior of his wife and daughter, and ignored them after calling once and seeing that they refused to go back. Of course, Cui Jing and Huo Wei didn't bother to talk to him.
Huo Wei was painting at home during the day, and when Lou Xiao came back from get off work, Cui Jing asked him to have dinner at home. Lou Xiao liked the warm atmosphere between their mother and daughter, so she agreed without much hesitation, and started to finish her work quickly every day, trying to avoid entertainment and come back before dinner, and have dinner with them.
If the time is early after the meal, they will draw together for a while, so even if Lou Xiao goes to work every day, the progress of her portrait is still very fast, and it is almost finished in a few days, and the favorability of her Steady rise, has risen to 55 points.
Huo Wei was not idle either. She learned from the initial flawed and unsatisfactory works, and she also found a well-known painter to point out the omissions in color. She made great progress, and now she is almost finished painting the picture of the fire in the rainforest.
Cui Jing is obsessed with buying things for her. The men in the family don't love her, but the mother does. Cui Jing not only transferred the four front rooms under her name to Huo Wei, but also went to the auction to buy several valuable jewelry for Huo Wei. Recently, rumors have spread in the circle that Cui Jing loves her daughter very much, and her daughter is also very caring, and the relationship between mother and daughter is very good.
Moreover, Cui Jing likes to praise her daughter with her friends. She has nothing else to praise, but she praises her daughter for her rapid progress in painting and her excellent painting skills. Before Huo Wei finished painting here, many people in the circle knew that she was painting a particularly good painting.
Those who don't believe it, and those who are naturally curious, wait for her to finish painting to see what masterpiece she can draw.
Huo Wei was not in a hurry to show them. She finished the last stroke and completed the picture of the fire in the rainforest. After examining it for a long time, she nodded in satisfaction.
It happened that there was no one around, so she silently said to the system: [What did I do before? How do you feel that there will be many things? Isn't painting contradictory to being a hacker and studying AI?]
[Host, there is no contradiction. Hacking and AI research may mean that you are proficient in this field of knowledge. In terms of drawing, you are obviously not good at drawing works of art, but you are good at drawing blueprints. Designing the shape of AI requires blueprints.]
Huo Wei rubbed her chin and thought about it: [So I may be a technical talent. However, I am still learning things very quickly. I can see that my painting has improved a lot these days.]
This is what makes Huo Wei very satisfied. She put a lot of waste manuscripts in her studio, and finally painted the current one. Putting the original scrap draft and the current finished product together, I am afraid no one will believe that it was drawn by one person.
The system said: [The IQ of the host is higher than that of ordinary people, and learning quickly is a basic ability. I hope the host can make good use of this ability and complete the task as soon as possible.]
Huo Wei laughed, [What's the rush? This is called sharpening the knife without cutting wood by mistake. When the knife is sharp, cutting wood will naturally get twice the result with half the effort. I know what's going on, just wait and see. Speaking of which, you didn't do me any favors.]
[Host, you got favorability points at the beginning, but now I can only provide you with favorability points. When you get other rewards in the future, the system can provide more comprehensive and better help. Such as encyclopedia, positioning function, mind reading, space, protective shield and so on.]
Huo Wei didn't speak, the system seemed to have guessed her thoughts, and said: [This world is considered a simple task, and there will be difficult and dangerous tasks in the future, the system rewards are very important, they can help the host to the greatest extent, please be serious mission accomplished.]
Huo Wei was actually a little curious about those interesting rewards, and said with a smile: [I have been earnestly completing the task, and tomorrow I will go to the company for a tour, it's time to meet them.]
There was the sound of a car outside, and after a while Cui Jing brought Lou Xiao to the studio. When they knocked on the door, Huo Wei also heard Cui Jing complaining to Lou Xiao, saying that she hadn't even had a good meal after staying in the studio all day.
Now the relationship between the two of them is also good. Cui Jing likes the sensible and capable Lou Xiao. In just a few days, the favorability value has reached 40. Lou Xiao also likes Cui Jing's kindness, and has 20 favorability points for her. It is very rare.
Huo Wei went over to open the door for them, and Cui Jing asked, "Is the painting finished? Lou Xiao is off work, so you should also come out to rest and draw tomorrow."
Huo Wei took Cui Jing's arm, let them in, pointed to the painting and said, "Look, I'm done painting, how is it going?"
Both Cui Jing and Lou Xiao looked at the painting. Huo Wei had been hiding it from them for the past few days. This was the first time for them to see the complete and colorful "Rainforest Fire". The smile on his face disappeared.
There are many different colors in the painting, but if you don’t look carefully, you can’t see the difference of so many colors. Many of them are superimposed and smeared with colors of the same color system, which adds a sense of layering and three-dimensionality to the whole painting, and there are a few more Very "angry", at first glance it looks like the real thing.
The upper part of the painting is very depressing, with dark clouds covering the drizzled rainforest, and the endless forest from near to far makes people feel hopeless, as if there is only one person left in the world, trapped in the dark forest Can't be saved.
Only the bright fire and the billowing black smoke brought a glimmer of life. The black smoke, the color is very dark, but it seems to rush into the sky with the only hope, hoping to be seen, hoping Can bring life.
There are no people in the painting, but looking at this painting can make people feel how helpless and desperate the person next to the fire was at that time. People can't help but feel for her and hope that she can be rescued.
This is a painting with strong emotions, and it is also a successful painting. Cui Jing wet her eyes after only a few glances, hugged Huo Wei and comforted her with sobs. No matter how detailed I knew about this matter at the beginning, it can't compare to the impact of seeing it with my own eyes, especially the emotions conveyed in the painting represent Huo Wei's emotions at that time, which made Cui Jing feel extremely distressed and terrified .
What if... What if it was too late to save people
What if it hadn't stopped raining
What if Huo Wei didn't carry a power bank in her bag
Any slight mistake, her daughter might not be able to stand in front of her so well. She suddenly understood why Huo Wei didn't recognize her brother. After she felt Huo Wei's despair at that time, she was powerless to repair their relationship.
The damage to the soul can never be repaired.
Lou Xiao kept pursing his lips and did not speak, just staring at the painting for a long time in silence. It wasn't until Cui Jing wiped away her tears and asked him to go to dinner together that he nodded and went out with them. When he reached the door, he looked back at the painting, as if he wanted to remember it firmly, and it took him a long time to close the door.
There was a rare silence at the dinner table that day, Cui Jing kept serving Huo Wei food, wanting her to eat more to nourish her body. Huo Wei knew that Cui Jing was not feeling well, so she obediently ate the food she picked up, and occasionally made a few jokes to let her know that she was fine.
But how can Cui Jing feel at ease? When she thought of her daughter holding on desperately in the woods, not even daring to pass out, she felt a pain in her heart. She suppressed her sadness in front of her daughter, and as soon as she finished her meal, she saw that Lou Xiao was going to take a walk with Huo Wei, so she went straight back to her room, for fear that her bad mood would make her daughter feel uncomfortable.
Lou Xiao asked the servant to put some clothes on Huo Wei, and walked slowly in the small garden with her. It was already dark, and it happened to be the night of the full moon. The moonlight and lights shone, and I felt very comfortable.
Huo Wei took the lead to break the silence, and said with a smile: "Why haven't you spoken? Are you scared by my paintings? Do you think I should draw the kind of energetic paintings? It is more in line with my appearance?"
Lou Xiao shook his head, "I didn't imagine what kind of paintings you would draw, but I didn't expect your paintings to be like this." He was silent for a while, his voice much lower than before, "That day... were you sad? ?”
Huo Wei stopped by the swing, handed the pulley to Lou Xiao, slowly sat on the swing, looked up at the full moon and said softly: "That day, maybe it was the saddest day in my life, right? I lost my brother that day, and I was still twins, the brother who was supposed to be the closest."
Lou Xiao kept looking at her, fearing that she would fall or cry. But Huo Wei's hand was very steady, and the expression on his face was always calm, showing no sadness or sadness.
He asked the question he wanted to ask most in his heart, "Are you still sad?"
Huo Wei tilted her head, her hair slid down her shoulders with her movements, it was very soft, and she seemed a little more gentle. She looked like she thought about it seriously, and then replied: "I'm not sad, I'm a little thankful for that day, I thought I was going to die that day, I was scared, sad, and regretful." She looked at Lou Xiao , asked him, "Guess what I regret?"
Lou Xiao squatted down and looked up at her, "You regret not being filial to your mother, regretting that you should not argue with Zhao Sijia, regretting not drawing a satisfactory painting, regretting many things you want to do but have not had time to do."
He spoke so comprehensively that he almost said everything that Huo Wei thought of. Huo Wei laughed, her eyebrows and eyes were beautifully curved, she didn't look like she just experienced the scene in the painting not long ago.
There was a smile in Huo Wei's eyes, "How do you know me so well? I just regret these things. Looking back on the scenes of my arguing with them before, I feel that I wasted my life."
She raised her head, swung a little wider on the swing, and said with a smile: "I used to be unwilling. My own father and elder brother didn't spoil me because of busy work. I can understand. The same is true for other people's families, so How can I have time to accompany me to coax me when I am busy? But I can’t understand that they treat an outsider better than me. There is no reason, and they hold her in the palm of their hands and reprimand me every time because of her. Not sensible. I admit that I have a delicate temper, so I am very angry. Seeing that Zhao Sijia is very unpleasant, I always want to drive her away. I think that my family will become the same as before. Maybe not warm enough, but very stable, won't make me angry."
She took a deep breath and sighed: "Some truths can only be understood after going through some things. When I thought I was going to die, I suddenly felt... life is so limited, why should I cling to people who don't like me? If they don't hurt me, I won't hurt. I still have my mother who loves me. I should live well and be filial to my mother.
Later, I was rescued. When Huo Ming saw me, he didn't even ask me if I was in pain. He just asked me to explain and don't let people scold Zhao Sijia. Zhao Sijia also said that I deliberately posted the news to make people on the Internet scold her, and Huo Ming believed her.
At that time, I felt that some people are worth my time to cherish, and some people are wasting their lives just looking at him. Now I just want to be happy every day. There is no need to think about the unhappy things in the past. "
With a faint smile, she whispered her insights about turning a corner. Lou Xiao looked at her from the side, feeling that she was so fragile, as if she would be blown away by the wind, and felt that she was so strong that she could already overcome the pain, making her heart extremely strong, so strong that it was indestructible.
He looked at her, stretched out his hand unconsciously, and stroked her hair lightly.
Huo Wei turned to look at him, he withdrew his hand in embarrassment, and stroked his fingers, not knowing how to explain his behavior, such actions seemed a bit ambiguous.
Huo Wei stopped on the swing, looked at him and asked, "You don't think I'm deliberately speaking ill of Zhao Sijia in front of you, do you? She said you were childhood sweethearts and grew up together, and she warned me to stay away from you , don't try to hurt you. I've always been curious, do you have a good relationship with her? Will what I said... make you difficult? "
Lou Xiao said without thinking: "I just lived next door to Zhao's house when I was a child, and I was a neighbor with her for three years. Then something happened to my family, and I left there. I don't have much impression of her. I take care of her because When I was in a difficult life in the orphanage, her mother sent me many things. Every time she wrote a letter, she mentioned Zhao Sijia, saying that we are good friends and we should support and take care of each other when we grow up.
They left City B before, and I couldn't find them. I only met Zhao Sijia half a year ago, when her mother had passed away. So I asked Yu Hai to do her a little favor. "
Huo Wei found that Lou Xiao was a little nervous when he said this, and kept looking at her, as if afraid that she would misunderstand. Her heart missed half a beat, and she asked, "Why did you explain it so clearly to me?"
"I'm afraid you misunderstood." Lou Xiao answered almost instantly.
Huo Wei nodded and continued to ask, "Then why are you afraid of my misunderstanding?"
This time Lou Xiao was silent for a while before answering: "I don't know, I just don't want you to misunderstand. You didn't do anything wrong, it was always Zhao Sijia's inappropriate actions, whether she was intentional or not, she hurt you .I don't want you to think I'm going to help her, and I don't want you to be angry about it."
"You're quite honest." Huo Wei swayed on the swing again, and said with a smile, "Then what will you do in the future? I hate her so much, if she does something to offend me, I will definitely try to teach her a lesson. When will you help her or me?"
"Help you." Lou Xiao gave her the answer without even thinking about it, then bowed her head and said, "Her mother asked, I can use materials to make up for her. In fact, I bought the Zhao family's house and returned it to her. I have prepared a job, and I think her mother hopes for such a stable life."
Huo Wei almost laughed out loud. She was sure that Zhao Sijia's mother definitely didn't mean that. What kind of stable life? Compared with money, what is stability
However, this matter obviously holds a certain weight in Lou Xiao's heart. She didn't talk nonsense without evidence, but changed her way of saying, "When you saw Zhao Sijia, she was already at Huo's house, and she lived a good life." Very good, do you still need to make up for her and take care of her like this?"
"She said she was under the fence." Lou Xiao rubbed her nose embarrassedly after saying this, "Sorry, I was busy when she said this, so I didn't ask anyone to investigate. I thought she was really under the fence."
Huo Wei laughed unceremoniously this time, she stopped the swing, and hooked her fingers to Lou Xiao. After Lou Xiao got closer, he said mysteriously: "My mother just found out that my father gave Zhao Sijia a real estate worth about 100 million yuan, and ordered a limited edition car for her, and she can spend Huo Ming's secondary card as she pleases. Also, she is now the assistant of the chairman of the Huo Corporation. Have you ever seen such a dependent? She is richer than me. If you want to take care of her, why don't you take care of me? "
Lou Xiao was not embarrassed by the small house and small job he prepared, but felt a sense of relief, watching her curl her mouth, "I am relieved that she is doing so well, then the one I prepared for her There is no need to give away things, it is more appropriate to do charity, presumably the kind-hearted Aunt Zhao will also be happy."
He said to Huo Wei seriously: "You won't blame me for helping her, will you? Can I still draw you in the future?"
Huo Wei thinks this is the halo of the muse. She is Lou Xiao's muse, and her importance is comparable to his company. How could it be that Zhao Sijia, a fake green plum, can do it
She smiled slightly and assured Lou Xiao, "You can come and paint me whenever you have time, I am not a person who is stingy and angry."
She never vents anger, she only holds grudges. It's like tomorrow, she will go to Huo's headquarters to stir up wind and rain. Huo Tingwei and Huo Ming made her mother so unhappy, she had to make them even more unhappy.
The people she was protecting were not something they could move.
