Xiao Zheng was not in a hurry to leave. It was not until Shen Manjun was tired and curled up in bed and fell asleep that he quietly left the room.
He knew that Shen Manjun just couldn't think about it for a while and was not really seeking death. When she wakes up, she will find that the world is not as dark as last night, the sun in the sky is still warm, and people are still friendly.
Walking on the cold street, Xiao Zheng let the cold wind blow on his face, always maintaining a calm face and steady eyes.
Tonight, he found Yamamoto in the Zhao family compound. A top master who is famous in the West and is known as Japan's first samurai. According to the information provided by Four Eyes, this person has already withdrawn from the world for many years. Living a semi-reclusive life. But even so, he is still in the top three on the global list. It once occupied the first place for three years. Based on Xiao Zheng's understanding of Fourth Master Zhao, would it be a simple matter for him to spend all his efforts to invite such a top assassin in the world to come to the Pearl? Who are you coming for
Besides Xiao Zheng, who else could it be
Now, Ye Shiguan is dead. How could the only remaining black bear be taken so seriously by Fourth Master Zhao? According to Shen Manjun's account, Fourth Master Zhao even eradicated those Zhao family elders who were blocking the way. It has received great attention from the government.
Under such circumstances, he did not forget to invite such a top assassin who was famous all over the world to come to the Pearl. His heart is obvious to all passersby.
"Zhao Laosi. You may think that if you find a well-known assassin in the industry, you will have nothing to worry about. But do you know that Yamamoto is only ranked third now, but I am number one in the world."
…
Life must go on, and people cannot stop eating because of choking, nor can they choose to end their lives because someone wants to harm them, or someone wants to kill them. Even plants grow towards the sun. Not to mention people.
In the following days, Xiao Zheng would come to the hotel to have dinner with Shen Manjun after get off work every day. Occasionally I would go out and watch a hilarious movie with her. At first, Shen Manjun couldn't do anything to cheer him up. Even when he ate, he could only eat a few mouthfuls before he was full. But as time went by, she slowly learned to enjoy the hardships, and put on makeup and a beautiful dress before Xiao Zheng arrived.
People cannot always remember only one painful thing and forget the many beautiful things in this world. Give a dollar to the begging old man and take the leaflets that the staff worked hard to distribute under the scorching sun. Even just taking the initiative to hand a plate to the waiter is a small but pleasant thing.
Shen Manjun seemed to slowly forget the troubles Mr. Zhao brought to her. Learned to actively seek happiness again. Enjoy this rare happy time with Xiao Zheng.
In the evening of that day, Xiao Zheng and Shen Manjun had dinner at the hotel. Since there were no good movies to watch recently, Shen Manjun scanned through all the seasonal clothes. Out of boredom, I went shopping on the crowded road and admired the dazzling night view of the pearl.
She held her arm with him, like all the inseparable lovers on the street. There is no violation at all.
Tonight, with the bright moon in the sky and the gentle breeze blowing, her mood was as good as ever.
But just as pain will not follow a person for a lifetime, happiness is often more short-lived than pain. When Shen Manjun, who was smart enough, regained her rationality, she realized an embarrassing problem that she had to face.
"You come to stay with me after get off work every day. Will it affect your relationship with Lin Huayin?" Shen Manjun asked tentatively.
She covets every minute and second she spends with Xiao Zheng, but she is not a domineering woman who takes pleasure in hurting others. Especially the man she held her arm with was the man she would never want to hurt.
"I remember. You used to have your life goal of breaking up her and me." Xiao Zheng lit a cigarette in the wind and asked with a smile. "Why have you learned to think about her now?"
"The past was before. Now is now." Shen Manjun said fairly. "It's not the same thing."
"Don't worry." Xiao Zheng flicked the ashes of his cigarette and joked. "As her classmate, don't you understand her as a person? Once she starts working, let alone me, she won't even take care of her sister. What's more, it is the expansion stage of the Yanjing branch. In addition to handling the business of the headquarters, she , the branch office also needs to follow up. I am so busy that I only sleep five or six hours a day. How can I have time to talk to me?"
Shen Manjun pursed her lips and said, "To be honest, she is indeed a hundred times better than me. Even her psychological quality is not something I can compare with."
"I very much agree with this." Xiao Zheng took a puff of cigarette and said with emotion. "I have never seen a woman as tenacious and brave as her in my life. She can support such a large company by herself. She must also have enough mental strength and fighting spirit. It is really not something that ordinary women can do."
"Then why don't you help her." Shen Manjun added in her heart: Help her just like you helped me. Isn't she your wife
"In front of her, I'm just an ignorant and lazy guy. Not to mention helping her, I'm lucky if I don't cause trouble for her." Xiao Zheng smiled and said boredly. "And to be honest with you. With my business acumen, I really can't do much to help her."
Shen Manjun smiled slightly and persuaded: "Everyone has their own expertise. She has business acumen, but she is not necessarily better than you in other aspects."
Xiao Zheng smiled and shook his head and said: "Apart from the fact that I can pee standing up, I really can't think of anything better than her."
"Who told you that women can't pee standing up?" Shen Manjun, who had regained her composure, said with a charming smile.
",,"
Ahead is the end of the pedestrian street. After crossing the pedestrian street, the two of them will soon reach the river beach and enjoy the more beautiful night view. But Shen Manjun was passing by a small shop with a small facade but very exquisite goods inside.
"Let's go in and take a look." Shen Manjun said with a smile.
"Yes." Xiao Zheng nodded and followed Shen Manjun in.
This is a very ordinary store. Of course, countless single men and women dare not enter this ordinary store. Because this store specializes in couple jewelry. It's not expensive, but it has a dazzling array of items that are all love-making items.
Xiao Zheng saw the name of the store and saw from the outside that all the people selecting goods inside were couples. But he couldn't refuse Shen Manjun's invitation. There is a reason, but there seems to be no reason. No matter what, Xiao Zheng's most real thought at this moment is to fulfill all Shen Manjun's wishes.
He really couldn't see Shen Manjun looking lonely and disappointed anymore. Because three days later, Xiao Zheng was about to do something that not many people dared to do and not many people were willing to do, but he would definitely do it.
But this incident was the most harmful thing to Shen Manjun in the world.
Atonement.
Maybe.
