After thinking about it, he quickly walked into the study, opened the door, and Zuo Panqing sat on the window sill of the study. The legs are half bent, and there is a big picture folder on it.
She lowered her head, drawing something on the drawing board.
She drew so intently that she didn't notice anyone coming in. The setting sun shone in from outside, dyeing her dark autumn pupils with a layer of gold. Bright as amber. The long eyelashes are slightly parted, casting a little shadow on the straight bridge of the nose, the lips are pursed, and the corners of the lips are slightly raised, as if smiling.
Gu Xuewen stepped forward and hugged her body from behind. Startled, Zuo Panqing dropped the pen on the window sill.
Turning around and seeing it was Gu Xuewen, she stretched out her hand and poked his chest vigorously: "People are scary, don't you know?"
Gu Xuewen ignored her, hugged her tightly, and didn't speak.
Zhou Qicheng may not attack Zuo Panqing, but he seems to be ready.
It's just that the team is short of manpower, and it's impossible for him to transfer people to protect her. just in case…
Zuo Panqing was slightly surprised by that abnormal appearance, looked up at him, and felt that his expression seemed very serious.
"What's wrong?" Didn't he have a task today? Why are you back so soon
"It's okay." Gu Xuewen shook his head, stepped back a little, but didn't let go of her, and glanced at what she was drawing just now, which was a landscape sketch.
"You still have this?"
"Please." Zuo Panqing looked at him like an idiot: "As a jewelry designer, sketching is a basic must, okay?" uu1x.
Her oil paintings are also good. When she was in college, the teacher always praised her for her delicate brushwork, but she hasn't done much in recent years. Draw more sketches.
"Then you can also draw characters?"
"Of course." Zuo Panqing raised her chin, with a slightly smug expression: "I've always been good at art. I'm also good at creativity. If I didn't like jewelry design, maybe I would become a painter now."
The little pride in those eyes was like a ray of light, so dazzling that Gu Xuewen couldn't take his eyes off, and took the drawing board from her hand: "Then ask Painter Zuo, are you hungry now, do you need to accompany you for your husband?" What about dinner?"
"Okay." Zuo Panqing really felt a little hungry. He wanted to jump off the window sill, but he carried her down first. Hands hooked around his neck.
"You don't want to just hug me like this?"
"Why not?" She was not heavy, and it was easy for him to hold her.
"Then I don't have to walk." Zuo Panqing cheated: "Xiao Guzi, please go get Ai's bag."
"Hey." Gu Xuewen smiled, carried her into the room, Zuo Panqing picked up the bag, stuffed the phone in, looked at Gu Xuewen: "Let's go."
……………
Every morning after eating, Wen Xuefeng went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables. This day she carried the vegetables into the gate of the community, and when she was about to reach the old apartment, a voice stopped her.
"Sister. You are back."
Wen Xuefeng was stunned when she heard the voice of "sister", and the vegetables she was carrying fell to the ground with a bang, and she couldn't move after staying there. A figure appeared in front of her, frowning at her dull expression.
"My dear sister, why, are you not happy to see me at all?"
Wen Xuejiao is in her forties, but she is well maintained. Dressed in expensive fashion and with big wavy curly hair, she looked like she was only in her early thirties.
"Wen, Wen Xuejiao." Wen Xuefeng's chest heaved violently, staring at the face of the visitor with disbelief: "You, didn't you go abroad? Why are you back?"
"Are you surprised?" Wen Xuejiao turned her face away, walked up to Wen Xuefeng and stood still: "Are you wishing that I don't come back? In this way, you can always occupy Zuo Zhenggang?"
"You, what nonsense are you talking about?" Wen Xuefeng blushed: "You obviously left by yourself back then. You were the one who wanted to divorce Zhenggang."
"That's right. That's because I know that you like him. That's why I made you happy." Wen Xuejiao said with a generous face, "If I didn't let you, do you think Zuo Zhenggang would like you?"
"You—" Wen Xuefeng said anxiously: "You stayed abroad well, what are you doing now?"
"Are you afraid?" Wen Xuejiao stretched out her hand and poked her chest, her expression suddenly became very cold: "In the past twenty years, you have occupied my husband and robbed my daughter. Tell me, we will pay for this debt." How to count?"
Wen Xuefeng's face turned from red to white all of a sudden, and her nails dug into her palm fiercely, but she didn't realize it. Just looking at the face in front of her that is five points similar to hers but younger than hers: "You don't want your husband and daughter. I didn't snatch them from you."
"I want it again now." Wen Xuejiao said very capriciously: "Forget about Zuo Zhenggang, I won't argue with you. However, Panqing is my daughter. I want to recognize her back."
"Impossible." Wen Xuefeng shook her head with a very angry expression: "Pan Qing was only a hundred days old, so you just leave her alone. Leaving Zhenggang to take care of the child alone is hard work. If I didn't help take care of her, Pan Qing might just... what face do you have to recognize her now?"
"Of course I have the face to recognize it." Wen Xuejiao smiled: "I gave birth to my daughter in October, and she has my blood on her body. Do you think she will recognize me?"
"Wen Xuejiao—"
Wen Xuefeng was completely shocked, she couldn't hear what Wen Xuejiao said next, and returned home with a blank face, Zuo Zhenggang just came out of the room. Seeing her appearance, she was very worried: "What's wrong with you?"
"..." Huge disappointment welled up in Wen Xuefeng's heart, and she suddenly hugged Zuo Zhenggang tightly: "Zhenggang. What should Zhenggang do? I'm so scared. I'm really scared."
"Xuefeng?" After more than 20 years of marriage, it was the first time he saw her like this.
"She's back. She's back—"
The body trembled unceasingly, and the fear in his tone made Zuo Zhenggang immediately understand who the "she" she was talking about, and his expression changed all of a sudden.
"You mean 'her'?"
Wen Xuefeng nodded, her body trembling even more: "Just now, she said, she wants to hope for sunshine. She wants to hope for sunshine..."
Zuo Zhenggang's face suddenly turned ashen, and he stood there in a daze.
A storm was quietly approaching Zuo's family, but Zuo Panqing, who was on the other side of City C, didn't notice it.
... ... ...
Scan the drawing into the computer. save. The phone rang at this moment, and she picked it up and swipe it.
"Hello."
"get off work?"
"Not yet." Put another image into the scanner. button.
"I'll pick you up from get off work." Gu Xuewen's voice was strong and could not be refused.
"Oh. Okay." There are free drivers, why not, but he doesn't want to go on missions recently
"By the way. Before I arrive, you are not allowed to run around and wait for me obediently at the company. Do you hear me?"
"knew."
He has been saying the same thing every day for the past few days. He is not annoying, but she is. After hanging up the phone, Zuo Panqing frowned tightly.
Things seem a little odd. What do you mean she can't run around
Where can she go? He caught him running away from marriage, and if he ran away, he would be a grasshopper in a jar, and he wouldn't be able to jump very far.
After scanning the last picture into the computer and saving it, Zuo Panqing stuck out her tongue and thought boredly: "Could it be that guy got involved in some underworld when he went on a mission. Then he's afraid that someone will come to seek revenge on me?"
As soon as this idea came out, Zuo Panqing shook her head and laughed to herself, cut. It's not a gangster movie, where are there so many gangsters
It's time to get off work. Zuo Panqing packed up her things and was about to leave. The door was knocked twice, and Ji Yunzhan came in. See the bag in her hand.
"ready to off work?"
Zuo Panqing looked at the time and raised her eyebrows: "I didn't leave early, did I?"
"No." Ji Yunzhan shook his head, walked up to Zuo Panqing and stood still: "Are you in a hurry?"
"Uh. What's the matter?"
"That's right. Tonight at eight o'clock, there will be a jewelry exhibition. The exhibits are all high-quality goods from various companies. I want you to have a look."
Jewelry Show? Zuo Panqing was a little moved: "Which companies?"
"They are all well-known companies." Ji Yunzhan smiled: "The main designer of CK Group brought her new works to the exhibition this time. There is only one night, and only a few celebrities are invited. The opportunity is very rare."
I really want to go, but—
"Why did you tell me now?" Then she would tell Gu Xuewen not to pick her up just now.
"If you have colleagues in the company, you are not afraid that they will say that you..."
Needless to say the following words, Ji Yunzhan believes that she understands. Zuo Panqing stuck out her tongue, her playful look was the same as back then, and the lines between Ji Yunzhan's brows instantly softened, looking at her with a very gentle expression.
"How? Do you want to go?"
"I—" Zuo Panqing wanted to go, but he didn't want Ji Yunzhan to misunderstand: "I'm not on business with you. I'm not dating you either."
"Just take a look at the jewelry exhibition." Ji Yunzhan's attitude was very sincere: "I will take you home immediately after watching it. Is that okay?"
"Okay." Zuo Panqing nodded, picked up her mobile phone and called Gu Xuewen: "Hello. Are you here? Not yet? That's just right, I have something to do. Let's go first. You don't need to pick it up."
"Where are you?" Gu Xuewen's voice suddenly became tense.
"I'm going to see a jewelry exhibition, and I'll come back after I'm done."
Fearing that Gu Xuewen would disagree, Zuo Panqing hung up the phone, then looked at Ji Yunzhan: "Okay, let's go."
"It's still early, you can go eat something first." Ji Yunzhan looked at her: "I'm treating you."
"No need." Zuo Panqing shook her head, her attitude was firm: "I invite you."
"Let's go." Ji Yunzhan walked out first. Zuo Panqing turned off the light, picked up her bag, locked the door, and left.
Go down to the underground parking lot with Ji Yunzhan. left the company together. But she, who was in a good mood, didn't see it. Gu Xuewen's car was parked behind the company at this moment, and when he turned a corner, he clearly saw Zuo Panqing leaving in Ji Yunzhan's car.
The hands on the steering wheel were suddenly clenched tightly.
... ... ...
Ji Yunzhan's car stopped in front of Zuo Panqing's apartment, Zuo Panqing opened the door and was about to get out of the car, turned around and glanced at Ji Yunzhan: "Thank you. If you didn't have the invitation letter, I wouldn't be able to get in at all. go."
"It doesn't matter." Ji Yunzhan smiled: "You are my employee, and I can be regarded as helping employees improve."
"Okay." Zuo Panqing nodded: "But I still have to thank you."
"If you really want to thank me, how about giving me a goodnight kiss?"
"Ji Yunzhan." After getting along well all night, Zuo Panqing didn't expect him to come here suddenly.
"Just kidding. See how scared you are." Ji Yunzhan twitched the corners of his mouth, suppressing the bitterness in his heart: "If you really want to thank me, treat me to dinner next time."
"No problem." Zuo Panqing heaved a sigh of relief, and it was much easier to invite dinner: "Then next time when you have time, I will treat you to dinner, so it's settled."
She got out of the car quickly and left, she was somewhat afraid, afraid that Ji Yunzhan would talk about the past again. That was the past that she no longer wanted to hear or recall.
Go upstairs, Gu Xuewen is not at home. There was a slight surprise in my heart. Thinking about the possibility that he had another task, Zuo Panqing tidied up by himself and went to bed.
When I slept until midnight, I felt that there was an extra person on my body. When I opened my eyes, Gu Xuewen came back. He seemed to have been drinking, and his face was a little dark.
"Go away." Zuo Panqing, who got angry when he smelled alcohol, kicked him unceremoniously: "You smell of alcohol, stay away from me."
"..." Zuo Panqing didn't hear a few words out of his mouth, but felt his big hands start to grab her pajamas.
"Hi. Gu Xuewen. What are you doing—"
"you… "
"Gu Xuewen..."
"Don't see him."
"Who are you talking about. Gu Xuewen, let me go." What kind of drunken madness is it
"You're mine. Do you hear that?"
"Gu Xuewen." She is her own, not anyone else's. But how could he defeat Gu Xuewen's strength
Struggling is not tenacious. The resistance was not very strong, and the final result was naturally eaten up by him. Then-
... ... ...
Zuo Panqing, who was extremely tired, had no dreams until dawn. When she woke up, Gu Xuewen had already left. Looking at the hickey marks all over her body. Zuo Pan didn't hit a single spot when the weather was clear.
This guy is getting way too much. He is always away from home, and as soon as he comes home, he will grab her and do it again and again. By cooperating with him to marry her and go home, is he finding a real-life version of his girlfriend for himself
When she entered the bathroom and saw the obvious mark on her neck, Zuo Panqing slandered again. "Gu Xuewen. You are simply a pervert and a gangster."
Everything is gone. Fortunately, the weather has turned cold now, otherwise it would be a shame to lose face.
Zuo Panqing found a high-necked sweater, and when she saw that she didn't show any traces, she breathed a sigh of relief. That's when I left to go to work. As she left in a hurry, she didn't notice that after she got on the bus, there was a shadow of a car following her until the bus stopped near the company, and she got off.
With the window rolled down, Wen Xuejiao in the passenger seat watched the figure disappear, and glanced at the driver: "Let's go back first, and come back in the afternoon."
"yes."
The window was rolled up, and the car quickly disappeared at the intersection.
… … … … … … …
Zuo Panqing hadn't gotten off work yet, and received a call from Gu Xuewen, saying that she had something to tell her.
After hanging up the phone, Zuo Panqing curled her lips, thinking of his drunken madness last night, feeling unhappy for a while. I don't want him to pick it up, and leave as soon as the time is up with the bag. As soon as she stepped out of the company, a black RV stopped in front of her, and a woman stuck her head out and smiled at her.
"Pan Sunny..."
