Because of the rush, the ring was directly worn by Xiang Yu and went to the company.
Seeing that she was late, she jogged all the way to sit at the desk, punched the card, then raised her hand to smooth the broken hair on her forehead, and exhaled.
Zhou Lie, who was sitting at the opposite desk, was shaken, put down the pen in his hand, and took off his glasses with a smile: "The new ring is dazzling enough."
Xiang Yu didn't hear what he said, and first sighed: "Fortunately, I caught up, there are still 3 minutes, and I was almost late."
After she finished speaking, she looked up at Zhou Lie, "What did you just say?"
Zhou Lie put on his glasses again: "You're already so rich, why are you still worried about the money for the attendance award?"
So Xiang Yu knew that he was making fun of her diamond ring.
Zhou Lie is a man who is not annoying. He doesn't talk too much and never gossip.
He has seen Jin Fubai.
I know that there is an entire floor of the office building opposite, just to change a flower for Xiang Yu to see every day.
I have also seen the newspapers a while ago, and know that Jin Fubai has not returned to China for a long time and may have hidden marriage.
Knowing that the dazzling big pink diamond in her hand is the real object of the diamond ring design draft in the newspaper.
But he didn't ask anything.
At this point, Xiang Yu felt that Zhou Lie really looked like a boss.
She stared at the back of her hand for a while, and asked in a low voice, "Is it really that conspicuous?"
The area of this office is over 70 square meters, but human beings, it's obviously just the two of them.
The rest are either piles of documents or lush greenery.
I don't know why she kept her voice down, for fear of being disturbed.
Zhou Lie suddenly smiled: "You wear this, the gossip about us in the company is estimated to be broken, because I don't look like a boss who can afford this kind of diamond ring."
It was rare to hear him joking, and Xiang Yu laughed along with him.
"Forget it, when I look back, people will say that I will step on you as a springboard, and I will be on the side of a bigger man."
Xiang Yu took off the diamond ring, turned over a tissue, wrapped it in the bag, put on the previous ring, pointed to himself, "I'm also 28 years old, and I can't stand the tossing of gossip, so I will continue to be wronged. Boss Zhou."
In fact, her birthday is so small, how can she be 28 years old? Counting one year old, he is only 26 years old.
After graduating from college and then going to graduate school, she was about this age, but she said old-fashioned that she couldn't stand the toss.
It's just that when she said this, she didn't know if it was an illusion. Zhou Lie, who was sitting opposite, actually saw a little in her eyes, and she didn't know who she was smiling at.
As if she couldn't wait to stand at this age.
The morning light in the spring is very good, Xiang Yu is lying on the desk, her smooth hair is pressed against her elbows.
She asked, "Is there nothing I need to do today?"
"Is the file form ready?"
"It's been done a long time ago, it's a small matter."
Xiang Yu stretched his waist slowly in the sunshine, like a cozy cat.
Xiang Yu is just a salted fish, but she really wants to give her any job. She never sloppy, she always completes it at the first time, and the quality is also reassuring.
Zhou Lie knew this very well.
And he didn't know when he started to get used to the existence of another person in the office.
He was used to rubbing his brows and giving her a glance during work breaks.
I'm used to seeing her lazy and unmotivated look.
She was also used to discussing with him when she was rich but stingy about when to raise a little money for full attendance.
"Is there really nothing to do? Then I can play games." Xiang Yu asked.
"Well, let's play."
Xiang Yu nodded and opened Xiaoxiaole in his mobile phone.
And Zhou Lie, from an angle she couldn't see, lowered his head and smiled silently.
The diamond ring was kept at home by Xiang Yu, and occasionally at night, I turned it out and wore it.
Even this kind of wearing method is still seen by people.
Tang Yuchi didn't know what kind of wind he was smoking that day. He probably drank too much, and sent a video to Xiang Yu with red eyes.
It was late at night, Xiang Yu chatted with him for a few words, and was so sleepy that he raised his hands and rubbed his eyes, and Tang Yuchi suddenly became silent.
Xiang Yu didn't react at all, thinking that it was because the network was not good and he was stuck.
She waved at the video again and again: "Can you still hear? Can't you hear me hanging up?"
Tang Yuchi has a habit of keeping his mobile phone very close during the video.
His baby face occupied the entire screen, staring at those red eyes, motionless, and after a while, he suddenly said, "Jin Fubai."
In the dead of night, Xiang Yu raised his mobile phone and turned back in horror.
In the dimly lit bedroom, there was nothing but familiar furnishings, and it was empty.
Half relieved, half disappointed, she turned her head back and scolded Tang Yuchi: "Are you sick? Why do you call his name so politely?"
"I mean, the ring in your hand was given by Jin Fubai? Is he back?"
Xiang Yu told Tang Yuchi the story of the windbreaker and the ring. After Tang Yuchi listened in silence, his brain soaked in alcohol thought for a while, still not knowing whether to congratulate or sigh.
Unexpectedly, this diamond ring is like a key to unlock some kind of opportunity.
This year, news about Jin Fubai suddenly came back from abroad.
First, the entire senior management of the group underwent a major shake-up, the liabilities were exposed, and 23 of its industries were sold to maintain the capital chain, and the projects sold were worth tens of billions.
These news were broadcast in turn in major financial programs, and the bigwigs in the financial industry sat in the recording room and talked rhetorically.
Xiang Yu's parents also called to talk to her about it.
Xiang Fu said on the phone that, fortunately, the project did not win the bid that year, and then the project was sold, and it would definitely lose money.
She smiled and said, well, lucky.
That group was so famous that when it collapsed, many people said it was a strategic misstep within the company.
Some people say that the wealth is only three generations, this is exhausted.
One wave after another, and then came the news of Chu Linlang's marriage.
She did marry into the Jin family, but the person who married was not Jin Fubai.
Xiang Yu saw Chu Linlang holding a young man's wrist on TV and smiled happily.
The two walked into the church, which was reported as "the fiancée jointly set the venue for the wedding."
At this point, Xiang Yu still doesn't know what's going on in this world.
It's just that the more she watched the news, the more angry she became, and the filter complained to Tang Yuchi very thickly:
They are all surnamed Jin. This man from the Jin family looks average. What did Jin Fubai do to be robbed of his fiancée by such a person? !
Just thinking about it later, Li Hao was like a crow's mouth back then.
He stood on the roof of the top floor that year, and the words Yingfeng said were actually hit seven, seven, eight, eight.
It would be great if the news only came here, but unfortunately, there are many, many things, there is no if.
At the beginning of May, the ornamental peach blossoms on the Third Ring Road will not fall.
Jin Fubai's name is menacing, caught in various news, and introduced into Xiang Yu's life.
Some people say that Jin Fubai had a car accident abroad.
Some people say that he was stabbed more than a dozen times in the street and was admitted to the ICU of a private hospital.
Some say he was on the famous financial road when he was shot by a gunman.
Some people said that he drank too much and fell from the upper floor of the hotel, but the floor was not high, and he was pierced by some plants in the green belt.
…
During that time, Xiang Yu was conscientious and conscientious, lingering between the company and home every day, two points and one line.
She looked like she didn't know anything about it.
Only one afternoon, Xiang Yu accidentally broke a coffee cup in the office.
He squatted on the ground in a trance, ready to pick up the pieces.
Zhou Lie's wrist was pulled, and he said that he had asked Aunt Cleaning to get the cleaning tools, and told her to be careful not to stab her fingers.
Xiang Yu remained silent and withdrew his hand.
"Xiangyu."
Zhou Lie suddenly called her, as if he was considering the words, and finally frowned, "Would you like to rest for a few days and go out to relax?"
She shook her head, her voice was soft, and she didn't know who she was comforting: "Don't you know how exaggerated the gossip is? The reports are not necessarily true, not to mention these hearsays that are more than 10,000 kilometers across the ocean?"
Zhou Lie couldn't bear to remind her that the flower opposite had not been changed for a few days.
He just nodded in response: "Yes, I was wrong."
People who don't know why are righteous, but Jin Fubai's circle has never spread any information.
Xiang Yu's heart sank little by little.
The only thing she can be sure of is that something bad probably happened to Jin Fubai.
For this matter, even Tang Yuchi flew back from abroad.
He didn't notify Xiang Yu to pick up the plane, so he came directly to Xiang Yu's company to go upstairs and took away Xiang Yu, who had just arrived off work and hadn't had time to pack up.
Tang Yuchi said, "Let's go, please eat something delicious."
He accompanied Xiang Yu for many meals, and he would come at noon and evening.
Later, he simply encouraged his parents to take Xiang Yu to the Tang family to live for a while.
Usually Jin Fubai has troubles, and he always mentions it on the phone in Xiangyu's video.
This time she didn't. She didn't mention such a big thing once.
It had been a week until Tang Yuchi returned to the imperial city. When Xiang Yu was off work one day, he got into his car with a handbag and snapped his fingers energetically: "The moon is so beautiful, let's eat Japanese food. go?"
Tang Yuchi always felt that the tone was very familiar, and when he started the car, he remembered that it seemed to be the year he found out that he was greened by An Sui.
At that time, he went to Li Haochang and drank continuously for a month. He was very drunk every day.
Before An Sui could wait, he was caught by Xiang Yu and pulled him out of the field.
Then bumped into Jin Fubai.
It was also during that time that Xiang Yu and Jin Fubai got angry and didn't get in touch.
Tang Yuchi hadn't decided at that time whether to support her to jump into the abyss of Jin Fubai.
And Xiang Yu had obviously figured out what to do, she said in the same tone as before—
"The sun is so good, shall we play mahjong in the afternoon?"
Thinking of this, Tang Yuchi was finally relieved.
She wanted to understand.
The Japanese food store they went to has been open in the imperial city for many years. The price is not expensive, but the taste is very authentic.
Xiang Yu liked the position by the window, brought a glass of sake, and rubbed the trees and moonlight outside the window with his eyes.
She smiled and said, "I still remember the first time I came here. It was in high school, and my godfather and godmother treated us with us."
"Your godfather and godmother are just two old men. We were only freshmen in high school at the time, so they encouraged us to drink sake."
After Tang Yuchi finished speaking, his voice changed, "Xiang Yu, don't believe those rumors, don't listen to their beeps, good people don't live long, and disasters are left for thousands of years, how can Jin Fubai die so easily?"
This is the first time Tang Yuchi dared to mention Jin Fubai's name after coming back so long.
He was anxiously waiting to hear how Xiang Yu would react.
In Xiang Yu's eyes, the diners in the room seemed to have been pressed the mute button, and the sukiyaki pot was silently cooking the good snowflake beef.
This is the best season in the imperial city. It is warm during the day without being too stuffy, and at night, the breeze comes.
She remembered that Jin Fubai took her to swim in a certain spring.
She was only wearing a bikini, and was hooked by Jin Fubai's thin belt, glanced at the men around her, and said, stop swimming, go back to the room.
Xiang Yu lost his temper, I've changed my clothes, you said I wouldn't swim if I didn't
Jin Fubai has a wicked smile on his face, can I exchange it for you
The surrounding voices gradually returned, and he took a sip of sake from Taro, but he didn't seem to have any special reaction: "Yeah."
Tang Yuchi persuaded her, and she nodded honestly.
He persuaded again, and she continued to nod.
Later, she drank a little more, and she was even in high spirits, talking about the past with Jin Fubai.
She said that she lived in Jin Fubai's house at that time, and he didn't know what wine party to participate in. She was watching a movie and casually said that she smelled the food on him and felt very hungry.
Jin Fubai asked her what she wanted to eat, but Xiang Yu had no brains, and replied that it would be nice if there were instant noodles.
After she finished watching the movie, she went out to look for it, and found Jin Fubai leaning in the kitchen full of alcohol, helping her to cook noodles.
He didn't turn on the range hood, and the room was full of hazy steam.
The light was soft and dyed his eyebrows and eyes. He looked back at her, smiled lightly, turned off the gas, and said, "It's just right, the face is good, come and eat."
Xiang Yu actually wanted to ask Tang Yuchi, shouldn't he be treated gently by such a gentle man in Jin Fu's bones
How could he end up in such an uncertain fate
But she didn't ask, just said, "How about ordering udon noodles, I suddenly want to eat noodles."
Tang Yuchi thought it was over like this.
In the night when the voices gradually subsided, they came out of the daily food store, and Xiang Yu leaned on the back seat of the taxi and fell asleep.
When she got home, Tang Yuchi opened the car door and called her: "Xiang Yu, wake up, it's here."
They did not dare to go upstairs directly, for fear of being too drunk to provoke Mother Tang.
The community is quiet, and the moon is ten thousand miles away. Xiang Yu has just woken up, and his expression is blank and quiet.
Later, she was just in the night wind and asked softly—
"You said that the heart is such an important organ, why can't it evolve to be more resistant? At any rate, it should be wrapped in a circle of bones, so that any branch can pierce it."
Tang Yuchi sighed.
He knew that Xiang Yu had already memorized those rumors, word by word.
