Judging from the applause of the audience, Rong Chun didn't screw up the performance.
But she only remembered that she stood up from the piano, walked slowly to the backstage, and changed her clothes.
The other students were busy with their upcoming shows, and busy figures flashed past, but Rong Chun didn't know what to do. Just sitting in a corner.
After a while, Bai Lu ran over and looked mad: "I'm going, what's going on? Lin Jiashu answered the phone and left. Is it a work thing? Don't be sad, Yoyo, there is a video anyway... "
Seeing her sullen expression, Bai Lu's words changed: "I said Lin Jiashu, this dog man, why is he so busy with work!"
Bai Lu had Lin Jiashu's phone number and was about to dial it when Rong Chun stopped him: "Don't ask him."
"What do you do now? Are you looking for him?"
Rong Chun shook his head: "No."
In the evening, some of their close friends have activities. In a bad mood, Rong Chun didn't go home, and went to KTV to continue the booth at the rainbow fart of his classmates.
Rong Chun threw the phone to Bai Lu, holding the microphone and singing one song after another.
After a long while, feeling boring, Rong Chun threw the microphone to a friend next to him, sat beside Bai Lu, and kept staring at the bag beside her.
Bai Lu: "Don't look, I turned off your cell phone. If you want to be good, if he wants to find you, he doesn't have to call you."
Rong Chun poured himself another half bottle of red wine.
Another classmate got drunk and came over and asked Rong Chun, "Yuyou, how did Lin Jiashu agree to be with you? I'm also a junior."
Except for Bai Lu, no one else knew that Lin Jiashu had come and gone, and they didn't watch her show at all. They only knew that the relationship between the two was confirmed, and they seemed to be very affectionate.
Rong Chun dazedly recalled for a moment in the strong alcohol smell.
three months ago.
There is nothing to do at school, Rong Chun has already had a holiday, and is going to meet Lin Jiashu in Xinyuan Building.
At that time, he had been working for two years, and he hardly ever returned to A University, and Rong Chun had to continue to take professional courses. The distance between the two was too far. She has rarely seen him.
I heard he came back from a business trip. Rong Chun quickly skipped class and wanted to see him no matter what, even if he didn't speak.
It was also a coincidence that Rong Chun casually glanced out the window on the way to his company and saw Lin Jiashu walking across the road. Like just got off the subway back to the company.
Knowing that as soon as he entered the lobby on the first floor of the company, it would be difficult to get out. Rong Chun couldn't wait for the driver to detour the car to the office building opposite, so she pushed the door and went out.
Rong Chun was not crazy enough to run a red light, but just after crossing the zebra crossing, she trotted over and called out Lin Jiashu.
She didn't notice that there was a wobbly battery car on the right. The express box on it was not tied up, and it was about to hit her with a bang.
Almost instantly, Lin Jiashu pulled her away.
That was the first time Rong Chun was held in his arms, and it was also the first time that he was so close to the opposite sex except his father and brother.
Close enough to hear his heart beating powerfully.
Lin Jiashu is very strong.
But Rong Chun was held by him quietly, and the sound of motor vehicle horns and the conversation of pedestrians on the phone all turned into fragments of a silent movie.
She smelled the clean laundry detergent between Lin Jiashu's neck.
I don't know how long it took.
Lin Jiashu returned to his usual calm appearance, but his eyes and tone were more serious than ever.
"Can't you even walk?"
"Is your life just chasing after me?"
"You were almost touched just now, do you know that?"
Rong Chun just looked up at him, frightened by his stern look. Half-opening his mouth, he finally said: "I'm sorry..."
"You don't have to be sorry for me. If you are hurt, only those who care about you will be sad."
Lin Jiashu picked up the briefcase just dropped and checked the computer inside. The quality of the notebooks allocated by the company is already worrying. Just after such a fall, it looks like a cracked watermelon rind. I don’t know if it can be repaired.
He raised his eyes and saw Rong Chun's driver parked on the side of the road at this time. He grabbed her wrist, opened the back seat of the car, and pushed her in, "Don't come to me again, I can't be with you."
After saying the last sentence, Lin Jiashu turned around and closed the door and left.
Like avoiding a big trouble.
In the past, Rong Chun didn't feel hurt no matter how much he refused, but this time, she knew that he was telling the truth.
Lin Jiashu has completely lost patience with her.
After returning home, Rong Chun seemed to be broken-hearted—even though she hadn't even started, she was saddened like never before.
Later, Rong Shaohui came to see how she lived alone, and saw that her daughter's eyes were crying like walnuts.
Rong Shaohui was distressed and angry, but he couldn't persuade his daughter to let go. "You try again for the last time. If he doesn't agree, don't pay attention to him anymore. If he doesn't like you, it's his loss."
Bai Lu also persuaded her that Lin Jiashu might be too angry, that's why he said so heavily.
Rong Chun thought that she had caused him to break the company's computer, so he asked someone to buy the latest model to go to him to make amends.
Rong Chun had lived for more than 20 years and was rarely on the moral low ground of apology. She dawdled for a week, thinking that Lin Jiashu's anger should be gone. Then I got up early and went to his company to wait for him.
The front desk informed her that Lin Jiashu was in a meeting, and he did not appear until noon.
"Is something wrong?"
He looked down at her, and the red mole in his left eyelid appeared indifferently.
Rong Chun clenched the shoulder strap of the computer bag, not daring to look at him: "I..."
It was lunch time, and more and more people were walking around. Lin Jiashu picked up the computer bag in her hand: "Come with me."
Rong Chun followed him to the Starbucks next to the company.
Before the ordering table, Lin Jiashu asked her, "Which one do you like to drink?"
Rong Chun didn't drink Starbucks much, so he replied, "Just like you."
Lin Jiashu didn't know which girls like to drink, so the clerk recommended a new product.
He only bought a cup, put on the cup cover, and handed it to Rong Chun.
Rong Chun said thanks, took a sip, and suddenly felt that it was too sweet, not good at all, and seemed to put it down inadvertently.
She hesitated and said, "That... I came to you today to apologize. Your computer is broken, and I will pay you. If you don't want it, I can transfer money to you."
Lin Jiashu: "That's it?"
Rong Chun: "... um."
Lin Jiashu leaned on the sofa: "I have no problem with my computer. If you have nothing to do, you can go."
Rong Chun sighed: "Wait!"
"you say."
Rong Chun held the half wet paper cup sleeve, because it was the last time, she was even more nervous than the first time she expressed her goodwill to him.
If she still refuses this time, she will have too few opportunities to see Lin Jiashu in the future. This person will always be a passer-by in her life. When she thinks of this, she feels a bit blocked in her throat and aches in her nose.
She said softly: "I want to ask you for the last time, do you want to be with me... If you don't want to, I will never look for you again in the future, and I will never bother you again. I also don't want me in your heart... "
Before she could finish her sentence, Lin Jiashu interrupted her with a word: "Okay."
The Starbucks downstairs is always full of people, and there is a lot of noise around. There are several groups of people on the left and right who are talking about the project, and they are talking about "Do you think my project is good?"
Rong Chun thought for a moment that Lin Jiashu was not answering her, but the person next to him.
"Did you answer me just now?" Rong Chun blinked and pointed at the tip of his nose.
Lin Jiashu's expression remained unchanged, and his beautiful eyebrows raised: "Otherwise, who am I talking to."
Your expression really doesn't look like you promised a girl's confession!
But Rong Chun couldn't control so much, she asked again, "You really promised to be my boyfriend? Are you sure?!"
People who learn vocal music can have a high-pitched voice casually. The entire Starbucks was originally noisy, but Rong Chun's voice made it quiet for a moment, and they all looked in her direction.
Only the background music in the mall is playing—
“Icouldbeyoursecretpleasure…Icouldbeyourbreathoflife…”
After a while, someone started booing.
- "Such a beautiful girl actually needs to take the initiative to chase people."
"You are so well-matched, stay together!"
Even Lin Jiashu couldn't calm down. His back molars bulged, he blinked faster than usual, and red moles flickered in and out of the folds of his double eyelids.
He quickly pulled up Rong Chun.
Don't forget to take away her computer and just a sip of coffee.
Lin Jiashu took her out of the Starbucks and turned to a corner of a self-service charger, where there were few people. Only passers-by hurried past.
Rong Chun still couldn't believe that he really agreed, this time she whispered: "Do you really want to be my boyfriend? It's the kind of boyfriend who wants to date and kiss and hug, not a male friend. If it's the latter, I don't need it."
Lin Jiashu seemed speechless to her, looked at the people passing by and said, "Well, it's true."
"I'm not dreaming..." Rong Chun scratched his forehead, "In that case, I want to confirm."
"… what?"
Rong Chun: "Don't move."
Then, she pulled down Lin Jiashu's collar, stood on tiptoe, and quickly kissed him on the lips.
Lin Jiashu's lips are slightly thinner, with clear lip lines.
- The touch is so real that it can't be dreamed.
Not daring to go further, Rong Chun loosened his collar and breathed carefully, for fear that the person in front of him was a phantom.
Lin Jiashu's eyes widened in disbelief, but he calmly said, "Are you sure this time?"
When he opened his mouth, his voice was hoarse that he didn't even notice.
And ambiguous feelings spread in the space.
Rong Chun seemed a little embarrassed, and didn't know where to put his hands: "Then I'll find you later at night."
Then, she ran away randomly.
Rong Chun thought later that Lin Jiashu must like her more or less to be with her.
Even if he didn't like her that much, she wouldn't blame him.
Rong Chun never thought about what she would do if Lin Jiashu liked others more than herself.
She has always been the active party, no matter what Lin Jiashu thinks, she will show him her heart naked.
Now that they have just been together for a while, Rong Chun has become more and more greedy, and she also wants all of Lin Jiashu's feelings.
***
The students didn't call their cars home until one o'clock in the morning.
Rong Chun took back his cell phone, but he didn't dare to open it again, so he simply closed it.
Rong Chun didn't see Lin Jiashu at home. He didn't come back at all.
At this time, is he still in the hospital with Yang Yuwei
But this time, Rong Chun decided that he must never be the one who bowed his head first. As long as Lin Jiashu said sorry to her, she would forgive him generously, and she could never take the initiative.
She took a shower in a fit of anger and lay on the bed to sleep. It may also be because of tiredness, or because I played too late with my classmates and fell asleep not long after.
When I wake up in the morning, the first thing I do is turn on my mobile phone. WeChat still has many unread messages that can be viewed or not, as well as many missed calls.
Just as she was going in, an unfamiliar mobile phone number popped up.
Rong Chun thought it was Lin Jiashu, and hurriedly picked it up, but there was a nasty female voice over there: "Rong Chun."
It's the original Shuangshuang.
It is not surprising that Yuan Shuangshuang has her contact information.
Rong Chun yawned: "Is something wrong?"
Yuan Shuangshuang: "I have something to ask you, let's meet."
Rong Chun refused without thinking: "No time."
Later, she will go to Xingtu Entertainment to find Jiang Zhiyu, precious time cannot be wasted on Yuan Shuangshuang.
Yuan Shuangshuang seemed to have expected her rejection, and said slowly, "Don't you want to know about Lin Jiashu?"
"… "
If it was normal, Rong Chun didn't want to know anything about Lin Jiashu through Yuan Shuangshuang, who knows if she would make up some crazy words.
But when I thought of Lin Jiashu's back when he left yesterday. She didn't stop for too long and made an appointment near Star Map Entertainment.
On the way, Rong Chun flipped through his mobile phone, all the news from his friends, none of them came from Lin Jiashu, but there were dozens of calls from the same unfamiliar number, and the rows of red numbers looked shocking.
Rong Chun's first reaction was that the phone had entered a virus, or someone made a mistake. But there is another possibility that Lin Jiashu called.
Rong Chun had just called and immediately hung up—this time she must not take the initiative to show her sympathy, not even a phone call.
I stuffed my phone into my bag, and it didn't take long before I arrived at the restaurant that I had made an appointment with with Yuan Shuangshuang.
As soon as Rong Chun entered, he threw his bag on the chair and took off his sunglasses: "Give you five minutes."
Yuan Shuangshuang had a heart-wrenching smile on the corners of her mouth, and she seemed to have succeeded. She didn't rush to say anything, but threw the dozen documents in her hand to Rong Chun: "You can see if you look at it."
Rong Chun frowned and opened the document. She thought she would receive Lin Jiashu's photo, but she didn't expect it to be a charity organization under the Rong family.
This is actually nothing to worry about, her family's charity information is open and transparent.
Rong Chun knows that his father is not a perfect man, but he has never stirred up trouble in charity organizations, because it was established for his wife who died of illness - Ming Jing's illness made him want to do something good to give back to the public, mainly. Fundraising for medical care.
Rong Chun has always been not interested in the company's affairs, but she also heard Rong Shaohui mention a few words to her.
Rong Chun: "What's the matter? If you want to report it, go directly."
Yuan Shuangshuang still had the same face, she took out a dior999 from her bag, opened the lid, and drew a red circle on the donation list on the last page.
She tapped the name with her newly made nails: "Do you know this Yang Qing?"
Rong Chun saw the information behind Yang Qing, 43 years old, unmarried, but has an only daughter.
An ordinary middle-aged woman. There is absolutely no way she would know.
But this ordinary surname connected the impossible guess in his mind.
Rong Chun's fingertips trembled a little: "What do you want to say?"
"Don't worry." Yuan Shuangshuang took out another document.
This time, she found someone to investigate.
Rong Chun looked down line by line and stopped at a certain word.
The smile on the corners of Yuan Shuangshuang's mouth finally widened: "Yes, that's what you guessed."
"Yang Qing is Yang Yuwei's mother, and why does your company's charity organization help them do charity? Do you really think it's a charity? Is it a coincidence? Yang Qing's disease is kidney failure and needs an organ transplant to recover. She My family has no power, no power, and no money, so why can I jump in the queue to accept donations?"
Yuan Shuangshuang deliberately paused for a moment: "Just because Lin Jiashu likes Yang Yuwei, because of her mother's illness, she can fall in love with you. Do you understand what I said?"
Yuan Shuangshuang's voice suddenly passed into the eardrum, causing Rong Chun to start ringing in the ears.
She didn't believe a word of what Yuan Shuangshuang said, but the gap in her heart was getting bigger and bigger. Reason told her that Yuan Shuangshuang's guess was right.
And there are no loopholes.
No wonder Lin Jiashu never said that he liked her.
No wonder he said he wouldn't marry her.
No wonder he immediately agreed to be with her after sternly rejecting her.
Yuan Shuangshuang: "If you don't believe it, you can ask your dad directly. After all, Lin Jiashu doesn't have the power to instruct your staff to do this. Your dad must have contributed to this."
Rong Chun remembered the subtle atmosphere when his father and Lin Jiashu met in Jiuqi Garden.
"… "
Rong Chun closed the pile of documents and raised his head calmly: "It's so interesting to sow discord between me and Lin Jiashu? It seems that the entertainment industry is not easy to mix, otherwise why do you have so much time."
Yuan Shuangshuang raised the corners of his lips: "Whatever you say."
After she finished speaking, she picked up her bag and left: "Rong Chun, this is just the beginning."
The air conditioner in the store was blowing too cold. Rong Chun looked out the floor-to-ceiling window. It took some time before she took out her mobile phone and called Rong Shaohui.
He didn't answer right away, and in the beeping sound, Rong Chun's mood was actually very calm.
After a few seconds, the beeping stopped, and the father's voice sounded in his ear: "Yuyou, what's wrong?"
"Dad." As soon as she spoke, she was surprised that her voice was too low.
Rong Chun always calls Rong Shaohui "Brother Hui". It has been like this since elementary school. He will only call him Dad when he encounters important events.
Rong Shaohui put down the work in his hand, and the folds between his brows deepened: "What happened?"
Rong Chun: "I want to ask you something."
"you say."
"Lin Jiashu..." Rong Chun paused, and then said the name, she suddenly felt a little strange. She always felt that he was just not good at expressing feelings, but in the end, it was herself who was stupid.
She took a breath and asked, "How did he tell you in the first place?"
Rong Shaohui was silent for a while: "You already know..."
He sighed: "I found him and asked him to promise to be with you, so I'll help treat Yang Qing. After Lin Jiashu's parents were gone, Yang Qing took care of him... I did force him a bit in this matter. …”
There seems to be no need to listen to the rest.
The truth is far worse than imagined.
Yuan Shuangshuang thought that Lin Jiashu was with Rong Chun with a purpose, no matter how much he had for her, it was still a little bit.
But the fact is that Lin Jiashu has been with her for so long, just playing the role of her boyfriend.
***
When Jiang Zhiyu received Rong Chun, she looked calm and seemed to be fine, but she had never seen such an expression on her face.
"Have a quarrel with Lin Jiashu?" Jiang Zhiyu immediately guessed the reason, "Come to my sister's arms."
She asked Rong Chun to stay in the rest area of the office.
Rong Chun lowered his head and lost his usual spirit: "He doesn't like me at all."
At this point, saying 'there are other men in the world' is no consolation - no matter how many good people there are, they are not the one she wants.
Jiang Zhiyu didn't want to ask again what happened, just hugged her shoulders and wiped her tears silently.
It wasn't until someone called her that it was a matter of work that she settled down for Rongchun and let her have a good rest here.
The assistant knocked on the door and told Jiang Zhiyu that someone was looking for him.
"One is called Lin Jiashu."
Jiang Zhiyu asked Rong Chun, "Do you want to see him?"
Rong Chun's shoulders were stiff.
- See what Lin Jiashu does
Ask him if it is because of Yang Yuwei that he is with her
Ask him if he was particularly bored during the time he was with her
But Rong Chun already knew these answers, so there was no need to ask them again.
Without imagining, she knew that he would admit that he didn't like her at all. Just like his gesture of rejecting her from the very beginning, he must be indifferent, leaving her a back.
- This man who doesn't like her is still doing the most intimate thing with her yesterday. He can kiss her skin inch by inch to the woman he doesn't love, or he can silently do his boyfriend's obligations according to her thoughts. .
How could she forget that the Lin Jiashu she knew didn't look like someone who could do such a thing. And all of this is for Yang Yuwei.
Rong Chun wanted to rush in front of him and tore off his disguise, but then he thought, what was wrong with Lin Jiashu
No one will refuse the conditions given by Dad. It is not money or profit, but an opportunity to save the elders who are close to each other.
Lin Jiashu was not wrong at all, he just didn't like her.
Rong Chun buried his face in his hands and murmured, "I'm gone, I don't want to see him again."
***
This is the second time Jiang Zhiyu has seen Lin Jiashu. The man who has not left his youthful air is a little gloomy that does not fit his age, as if he is being chased by some invisible pressure all the time.
But he is so beautiful that the first thing people see is not his aura, but his face. Jiang Zhiyu has seen too many stars, and most people really can't get into her eyes, but Lin Jiashu is different, he can't be picky wherever he puts it.
Not to mention that he is not a straw bag, unlike those puppets who only have skins and empty heads, he has already figured out some dark box operations in the mall at a young age.
It can be said that a person like Lin Jiashu, apart from his poor family background, has nothing to stumped him.
Even if Rong Chun didn't like him, given time, he would be able to live better than most people.
No wonder Rong Chun hung a tendon on him.
But no matter how much Rong Chun liked him, Lin Jiashu must have done something to make her sad. For that alone, Jiang Zhiyu couldn't be nice to him.
"Xiaochun's current state is not good, you should stop seeing her." Jiang Zhiyu folded his arms and glanced at him while checking the information of an actor handed over by his assistant.
Lin Jiashu wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything in the end, said "Excuse me", and walked into the elevator.
Jiang Zhiyu had already made plans to deal with him. Seeing him turn his head away so painlessly, he was stunned for a moment, and then sneered.
The assistant next to her held her heart next to her and watched Lin Jiashu's back disappear into the elevator before she screamed in a low voice, "Wow, who is this person, so handsome... Mr. Jiang, hurry up and hire him to our company."
Jiang Zhiyu usually acts like he does with his subordinates, but at this time he scolded seriously, "I just know how to look at the face."
"… "
The little assistant stuck out the tip of his tongue and slipped aside to escape.
After Jiang Zhiyu had dealt with the company's affairs, he was about to see her little princess crying a few times, but suddenly received a call from Mr. Rong.
"Is Yoyo still with you?"
Before Jiang Zhiyu took over the position of CEO of Xingtu Entertainment, she met Rong Shaohui several times.
At first glance, I knew this guy was a tough character. Even in his old age, he did not hide his refined appearance, and all the city was concealed in his shrewd eyes.
But after entering the job, Jiang Zhiyu discovered that this man was so indulgent towards his children, it could be said that he gave what he wanted.
Over the years, Jiang Zhiyu also reported the company's performance to Rong Shaohui remotely at the end of the year. The entertainment sector was relatively marginal among Rong's companies, and Rong Shaohui gave her a lot of autonomy. At other times, I rarely come to see Jiang Zhiyu.
And this time, her intuition was not because of her daughter's feelings. Recently, there have been some unfavorable gossip about the inside of the Rong family...
Rong Shaohui's voice was as steady as ever: "You ask Yoyo to come to my side for a while."
"I have something important to discuss with her," he added.
Jiang Zhiyu responded.
After hanging up over there, she pushed open the office door.
Rong Chun was still sitting on the sofa, not knowing what he was thinking.
Jiang Zhiyu patted the top of her head: "Mr. Rong said let me take you to him in a while."
Rong Chun regained his senses and nodded slowly.
***
Lin Jiashu waited downstairs for a day until the last light on the floors of Star Map Entertainment went out. He glanced at his phone, it was past eleven o'clock.
He casually returned the messages of several colleagues.
Then I saw that in the dialog box between him and Rong Chun, there was a red exclamation mark in front of the last message he sent.
But even if he wants to break up, he wants to make things clear.
Rong Chun's character is that she wants to find someone, but she can't find it. If she doesn't want someone to find her, she will definitely not show up to the girl in front of him.
She either doesn't want it, or she pays all her efforts.
Lin Jiashu knew her too well.
But he also trampled on this feeling.
He returned to the Jiuqi Garden where Rongchun lived.
The villa is very large. Lin Jiashu went to find it one by one. If he couldn't find it in the villa, he went to the garden at the back.
Only the doorman was still on duty, and when he saw Miss Rong's boyfriend, who had always been indifferent, he looked very anxious and told him that Miss Rong had not come back.
"Is it."
He knew it was the result, but if Lin Jiashu didn't do anything now, somewhere in his heart would break.
Although the Rong family has a lot of real estate, there are already dozens of them in Yunling City, but the place where Rong Chun often lives is more than the home of his parents.
She also dislikes staying in hotels and friends' houses.
Lin Jiashu: "Do you know Mr. Rong's address?"
The security went to copy the address and tore a piece of paper for him.
Lin Jiashu sat in the car, a deep sense of powerlessness swallowing him like the dark night.
Compared with Jiuqi Garden, Rong Shaohui's villa has a different style, and it is dignified and dignified, but for Lin Jiashu, there is a barrier that can never be integrated into it.
The guard at the main house didn't know him, but he was only familiar with his name.
Fortunately, a driver, Uncle Chen, knew Lin Jiashu.
"You mean Miss? She went to the private airport of the Rong family. Don't you know that she is going abroad?"
Looking at Lin Jiashu was like being punched, a little dazed. Uncle Chen said, "It just so happens that it's time for me to turn over. I'll take you there."
Lin Jiashu thanked him.
Sitting in the car, the WeChat group in his hand kept ringing. He felt annoyed and didn't click on one.
A phone rang, he thought it was Rong Chun, but the screen showed Qin Xian.
Lin Jiashu picked it up: "Speak."
Qin Xian: "Have you read the news? Rong's filing for bankruptcy and reorganization? What's going on?"
Lin Jiashu was stunned for a moment and turned on the phone.
Rong's is an established company. Such a group filed for bankruptcy and reorganization, and major apps took turns broadcasting headlines—
In recent years, after Rong Shaohui's semi-retirement, the Rong Group's internal control has become unbalanced, and it has long lost its glory.
An important reason for bankruptcy is that the group has been involved in too many industries, trying to enter overseas and wantonly acquiring other companies. However, it was blocked under the protective policy of a certain country, resulting in a break in the chain of liquidity funds.
…
Qin Xian's phone call continued: "Where are you now? Is Rong Chun next to you?"
At the same time, Uncle Chen in the driver's seat told Lin Jiashu, "It's here."
Lin Jiashu immediately opened the car door, and there was a taxiing plane on the Rong's private airport.
Just as Lin Jiashu took a step forward, the plane took off with a bang.
The navigation lights cut through the night sky and disappeared into the clouds with a roar.
Lin Jiashu lowered his right hand holding the phone, and there was no more light in his pupils.
The author has something to say: English lyrics from "I Could Be The One"
