In the blink of an eye, Yao Yiyi has been abroad for seven months, and she will be able to go back in two or three months. During this period, not only a lot of things happened in the country, but also a lot of things happened around her.
Seeing Rhett's attentiveness to Yao Ting, Yao Yiyi never thought that Rhett would come true.
"Tingting, I heard that in China, your whole life is 1314, so I sent you a WeChat red envelope of 1314. Please check it." Ruite raised the phone in his hand and learned this from his Chinese colleagues. The trick was used on Yao Ting.
The corners of Yao Ting's mouth couldn't help but twitch, being annoyed by Rhett.
"Mr. Rhett, I am very grateful for your love for me, but I really don't like this kind of fancy pursuit, and I already have a lover in China. I think you are a person of high moral character and have a good relationship in our country." An old saying goes very well, it is better to demolish ten temples than destroy one marriage, so please don't do this, I don't want to ruin the teacher-student relationship between you and Yiyi." Yao Ting took a deep breath and said.
Rhett looked at her sincerely and said: "Tingting, I checked thoroughly. You were married, but you were divorced not long ago. You are single now, so there is no possibility of me intervening in your marriage. I If you think I'm not bad, why don't you give me a chance? I swear I will be good to you."
Yao Ting looked at him and wanted to beat him up, but since he was Yao Yiyi's grateful mentor, she could only swallow back her anger.
"I'll just leave. You can take your time. I won't accompany you." After Yao Ting finished speaking, she left angrily. She really couldn't stand Rhett's entanglement anymore. She even They all considered returning to China.
She went abroad to relax and forget about Li Haoran, not to find a foreigner.
Rhett looked at Yao Yiyi for help, and Yao Yiyi shrugged at him, indicating that there was nothing she could do.
"Rite, I think you should give up. Tingting still can't let go of her ex-husband. They separated because of a small misunderstanding. Maybe they will get married again when they figure it out. You know we Chinese like to get back together again. Yes, don't waste your time on Tingting." Yao Yiyi advised.
One is her best friend, and the other is a mentor who has helped her a lot. If it hadn't been for Rhett, she might not have made such great progress in design, so she would do whatever she could to persuade her.
"Yiyi, you will help me, right." Rhett rolled his eyes, focused on Yao Yiyi, and said in a very affirmative tone.
Yao Yiyi crossed her hands in a gesture of rejection.
She said bluntly: "I can help you with everything else. I am powerless on this. You can pursue someone if you want, but you may need to put more thought into it. Come on, I am optimistic about you, but don't fall for it. I want to pull you over." Don’t come up.”
Rhett curled his lips childishly, and his whole body was like a deflated balloon, which made Yao Yiyi feel a little guilty.
She made a move to leave first, and then left quickly. From her back, it looked like she had fled.
Back in the apartment, Yao Yiyi saw Yao Ting biting the apple out of anger. She walked over and took the apple away from her hand and said, "You really don't have that feeling for Rhett?"
"I admit that he is a very attractive man. Not only is he handsome in appearance, but he also has an air of nobility in his every move. A woman would be crazy about him." Yao Ting crossed her legs and said.
"It's just that those women don't include you, right." Yao Yiyi continued her words. The latter sentence seemed to be a question, but it was actually very affirmative.
Yao Ting blinked innocently and did not deny it, which was regarded as acquiescence.
Yao Yiyi sat next to her, thought deeply, and said: "Tingting, when you came abroad with me, in addition to worrying that An An and I were alone, you also wanted to forget Li Haoran. We all know that we want to forget The best way for a failed marriage is to start a new relationship. Of course, it would be unkind for me to advise you to start now, but there is no possibility for you and Li Haoran anymore. Why don’t you try to accept Rhett? He is handsome and knowledgeable. , humorous, and the key is to keep oneself clean. I have been in contact with him for seven months. I can still trust him as a person. His friends and colleagues around him also speak highly of him. I think you can have a romantic relationship with him. It's not a bad idea. If it's really impossible to separate, you don't have to get married to be with him. We just let nature take its course. If the relationship is strong enough, we will definitely get married."
Yao Ting put her legs together and curled up her head, as if this way she could refuse to hear all the things she didn't want to hear.
Yao Yiyi sighed and raised his hand to touch her head.
She got up and wanted to go to the kitchen to cut some fruit to eat. Yao Ting buried herself between her thighs and said muffledly: "My dear, do you think I am particularly worthless? You have never forgotten that person until now."
"How could it be? In fact, I am advising you from the perspective of a bystander, but you and I are in the same boat. If you can't forget Li Haoran, how can I forget Qingheng? I feel this kind of pain, so I don't want you to It’s just so hard.” Yao Yiyi sighed quietly and said.
It was because she had experienced the pain of being deeply in love but not being together, that she was so eager to see Yao Ting still trapped in it and tormenting herself even though she was divorced, and forcing herself to smile in front of others most of the time. I hope Yao Ting can accept Rhett and get over the failure of her last relationship.
Yao Ting raised her head and glanced at Yao Yiyi.
"My dear, if I say that I am very happy with this unforgettable relationship, will you think I'm a bitch?" she said. It's not that she doesn't want to start a new relationship, but she rejects the intrusion of outsiders from her heart. Maybe she can deceive others and say that she has forgotten Li Haoran, but she can't deceive herself. She loves Li Haoran deeply, even if he cheats on others. A woman is pregnant, and she still has a hard time getting over it.
Yao Yiyi came over, touched her head, and said with a smile, "As long as you like it. If you say I'm a bitch, I'm actually a bitch just like you. As long as we don't be the executioners who hurt other people's marriages, what else? How can you be happy?"
Yao Ting smiled.
Yao Yiyi went into the kitchen to prepare some fruit, brought it out, and the two of them ate it one bite at a time.
After finishing eating, Yao Ting ran into her bedroom and took out her computer.
"Dear, I have written a new novel about the urban workplace. Please help me see if there is anything else that needs to be changed. I will send it to the domestic publishing company after I have made the changes." Yao Ting opened the document stored in the computer. Give her novel to Yao Yiyi to read.
Perhaps it was the emotional trauma that made her devote herself to the creation of novels. She wrote two novels with sales exceeding one million yuan only seven months after coming to a foreign country. She was inspired. The previous one was swept away by readers when it was released three months ago. As for Sora, it was reprinted three times. After reading it, readers commented that it was too sad. They also asked whether the author had been emotionally traumatized and could write that kind of sadness so delicately that people couldn't help but want to read it. shed tears.
Feedback from readers has been enthusiastic, and some comments from older readers are even more hilarious.
Don't cry, we dumped the scumbag and masturbated standing up.
Don’t cry, you are still with us. Let’s send you a blowing kiss.
Damn, this novel is so cruel and beautiful. I have read it more than ten times. I have used up all the tissues at home. My mother even asked me if I was constipated. You must comfort me because I was misunderstood by my mother. soul.
…
Yao Yiyi was lucky enough to see these comments. She secretly said that domestic fans are very cute. No matter how you read these comments, they are very interesting.
I feel homesick in a foreign country, so when I see these Chinese comments, I feel amiable, and even the abusive words feel particularly cute.
As soon as Yao Yiyi read Yao Ting's new novel, she couldn't help but fall into it. Three hours passed before she knew it. She had only read half of it. When she felt her eyes were sore and raised her hands to rub them, she realized that she had... I actually cried while reading the novel.
Yao Ting brought two cups of tea from the kitchen and saw her red eyes, and asked with concern: "What's wrong?"
Yao Yiyi took the tea in her hand and shook her head: "It's nothing, I just resonated with the content of your novel. I felt like crying after reading half of it. I'm afraid that if this book is released, your new Old readers will cry to death. If you go back to China for a signing event, I can guarantee that someone will prepare eggs for you. This novel is so cruel that even I want to cry. It is very different from the style of your previous novels. No wonder they all I thought you were emotionally hurt.”
Yao Ting sat next to her, holding the tea cup with both hands, feeling the warm heat flowing through her skin into her blood: "I don't know why, I just suddenly thought of some sad stories, maybe my words It aroused their past experiences, so they cried. I think most girls have had these experiences of mine, so they wanted to send me razors. I was letting them go through it all over again. .”
Yao Yiyi was amused by her description.
"There is nothing wrong with your novel. The writing style is even more improved than the previous one, but the plot is more sadistic. It is quite suitable for being made into a TV movie. You really don't want to be the screenwriter yourself to adapt it? I remember before Director Jiang, who we have worked with in China, called you."
Yao Ting shook her head, "I don't have that intention now. I will think about it after some time. Now I can just focus on writing novels."
Yao Yiyi shrugged and did not continue to persuade her. In fact, it was good to focus on writing novels. At least she would not have so much thoughts about Qiu Beidong when she was busy.
Seeing Yao Ting busy and busy, Yao Yiyi felt relieved.
Yao Ting's novel set off a boom in sales as soon as it was published in China. In just two months, it sold millions of copies. Many film and television companies called her to ask her to be a screenwriter and adaptor. She actually agreed to write her own novel after careful consideration.
Yao Ting also planned to return to China after nine months abroad. She said to Rhett: "Rite, you said that I have made rapid progress in design. I think I can return to China after completing my studies. What do you think? ?”
"Are you really planning to return to China? What should I do? I've already started to miss you. Of course I also miss Tingting and her delicious food." Rhett said frankly.
Yao Yiyi looked at him funny, "Rite, can I ask you, when you pursue Tingting these past few months, are you interested in her person or the Chinese food she cooks?"
"Yiyi, do you think with my current wealth I won't be able to afford a Chinese chef to cook authentic Chinese food?"
After Yao Yiyi was stunned, she realized what a stupid question she had asked.
"Rhitter, I'm sorry, I asked a silly question, but the chance that you and Tingting can be together is only one percent. It seems that you have a long way to go."
"There is an old Chinese saying that goes as far as sincerity leads to gold and stone. I believe I will be the most suitable for her."
It's good to have confidence.
Yao Yiyi did not continue to persuade.
After completing the school credits ahead of schedule, Yao Yiyi received her diploma and was appointed by the top management of Ruili Company as the image agent in China and the design director of the Chinese branch. Yao Yiyi did not shirk this time. At the banquet, she raised the Holding the cup, he sincerely thanked Rhett and other senior executives for their appreciation.
They paid tribute to the others one by one. Even though Yao Yiyi had a good drinking capacity, she was a little tipsy. She shook her head and followed Rhett's side to interact with the others with a sober look on her face. She didn't like this very much in the past. socializing, but now, she forces herself to socialize, and has learned to be a snake when interacting with different people.
The banquet ended at eleven o'clock in the evening. Ruite and Yao Yiyi said goodbye to the others and left the venue one after another.
Outside, everyone went down the steps to find their cars, and Yao Yiyi also saw Xu Chen waiting by the car. She waved to Xu Chen happily, and Xu Chen gave her a smile, but the next second His expression changed drastically and he ran towards her as fast as he could.
"Yiyi, be careful." Xu Chen shouted in panic.
Yao Yiyi didn't understand why he was so panicked. It wasn't until she was thrown to the ground by Xu Chen and gunshots were heard in her ears that she understood what happened.
Xu Chen rolled her around several times and then rolled behind the potted plant. He hugged her anxiously and barely looked at her body, "Yiyi, are you okay?"
Yao Yiyi raised her head in shock, and was accidentally frightened by the red blood on Xu Chen's chest.
"Xu Chen, you, are you injured?" She tried to touch his chest with trembling hands, but she quickly withdrew her hand as if she was afraid of hurting him. "I'll take you to the hospital. Your chest is injured. Come on, I'll take you there now."
Xu Chen grabbed her and shook his head at her.
"Someone is shooting, you hide here first, I'll go and see what's going on." Xu Chen hid her, propped up his injured body and poked his head out, only to be pulled back by Yao Yiyi the next second.
"Xu Chen, don't go out. You are injured now. I can't let you take risks." Yao Yiyi said, "I just don't know how Rhett is doing." She has almost no enemies abroad, but now Xu Chen is obviously injured. , this shootout was probably aimed at Rhett beside her.
"Don't worry, when I knocked you down and rolled you over here, I saw him getting up from the ground and running to the other side, and the bodyguards around him will protect him." Xu Chen said.
Yao Yiyi breathed a sigh of relief.
The gunfight lasted for half an hour before it stopped.
Yao Yiyi helped Xu Chen, who was obviously bleeding a lot, and looked at him worriedly.
Rhett walked over under the protection of bodyguards. Seeing that Xu Chen was injured, he said, "Help Mr. Xu to the hospital."
Two bodyguards came forward to help Xu Chen and wanted to walk to the car, but he didn't walk away and just looked at Yao Yiyi worriedly.
Rhett knew from his expression that he was worried about Yao Yiyi, and felt a little moved in his heart. He also guessed that Xu Chen's relationship with Yao Yiyi was definitely more than just his employer. The affection in his eyes was too strong.
"Don't worry, I will protect her." Rhett promised.
After Xu Chen heard this, the corners of his lips curled up, and he fainted as soon as he closed his eyes.
Two bodyguards took him to a nearby hospital as quickly as possible, and Yao Yiyi was finally driven there by Rhett.
"Yiyi, he loves you very much." Rhett looked at Yao Yiyi in the rearview mirror and said.
Yao Yiyi wiped her face and smiled bitterly.
Xu Chen protected her with his life. Her mood at the moment was really complicated, so she just chose not to go to the hospital with the car that took Xu Chen. She needed some time to calm down.
Xu Chen's kindness to her has gone beyond what she can bear. In this life, she may find it difficult to repay such deep love.
"Yiyi, don't worry. He bled a lot, but it didn't hurt his vitals. It shouldn't be life-threatening." Rhett changed the subject.
Yao Yiyi looked at Rhett, a trace of vulnerability flashed in her eyes.
"Rhett, he is so kind to me, but I can't respond to his affection. What do you think I should do?" she asked confused.
"Don't take it to heart. I think he loves you deeply and is willing to sacrifice for you. If I see the woman I love in danger, I will do whatever it takes."
Yao Yiyi covered her face with her hands.
"Rhett, why did someone shoot?"
"They came for us. I'm sorry for getting you and Mr. Xu into this whirlpool. I will investigate the matter thoroughly and seek justice for you." Rhett said with a solemn expression. .
Yao Yiyi just nodded dullly and didn't want to talk more.
When she rushed to the hospital, Xu Chen had been pushed into the operating room. She looked at the lights on the operating room and felt very uncomfortable.
As expected, she had fallen under the spell of the hospital. All her relatives and friends had been admitted to the hospital with various illnesses or injuries, and Xu Chen was now in the operating room, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
Yao Ting rushed over with An An still sleeping, her head covered in sweat.
"Dear, how is Xu Chen?"
Yao Yiyi shook his head.
She didn't know if her life was in danger. The gunfight lasted for half an hour. Xu Chen bled for half an hour. So much blood dyed his white shirt red. It was so shocking to watch. , I am afraid that she will never forget today’s nightmare for the rest of her life.
Yao Ting put An An into Yao Yiyi's arms, then held her head in her arms and comforted her with a gentle voice.
"Okay, okay, Xu Chenfu is destined to be fine. Don't worry, he will be fine."
Yao Yi leaned on her, confused.
"Tingting, if something happens to Xu Chen, I won't forgive myself." She said softly.
"Good boy, don't think too much. With me by your side, he will definitely be able to get through this difficult time. He was still thinking about protecting you and An An, how could he be defeated so easily." Yao Ting comforted her softly. She didn't ask why Xu Chen was hit by the gun. It wouldn't be too late to ask when Xu Chen woke up.
She could also see that Yao Yiyi was on the verge of collapse at the moment.
The three of them waited outside the ward for a full eight hours before the lights in the operating room were turned off, and a dozen doctors walked out.
Yao Yiyi hugged An An and rushed over.
"Doctor, is my friend okay? Is he okay?" Yao Yiyi asked in English.
"Don't worry, his life is not in danger. He just lost too much blood and needs a good rest." The doctor said a lot of precautions in English before leaving with a tired face.
Yao Yiyi's legs softened and she almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Yao Ting had quick eyesight and quick hands to support her.
Yao Yiyi turned to Yao Ting and smiled weakly, and said: "Tingting, his life is not in danger, it's great." After saying that, she also fainted, and Ruite would not have hugged An An in her hand quickly. I'm afraid it will fall to the ground.
Yao Yiyi helped her and called the doctor. The doctor pushed her to the ward and checked her. He said that she fainted because of excessive fright and that she should just take a good rest.
Yao Ting was relieved after hearing this.
Both of these are very disturbing.
I thought I would have a peaceful life in Anshun for a day or two after hiding abroad, but I didn't expect that there would still be so many things going on.
"Tingting, you can take a rest. I'll just take care of you here." Rhett said with concern.
Yao Ting glanced at him and shook her head.
"Mr. Rhett, you can go back and rest. I'll just take care of it. I'm really bothering you today. They both have nothing to do. I can handle it by myself."
Rhett gave her a long look.
"Tingting, it's good for women to show weakness occasionally. Although I like independent women, I heard that Chinese women are more popular if they act coquettishly occasionally, so I don't mind if you act coquettishly with me."
Yao Ting was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud.
Suddenly she didn't hate Rhett so much. As Yao Yiyi said, he was a humorous man.
