night.
The moon is in the sky.
Silvery white brilliance fell on the streets of Los Angeles, a black BMW x3 sped from a distance with a roaring engine, stopped in front of the entrance guard of a high-end residential area, swiped the card and drove in slowly.
Under the night, there were many buildings, some of which were still lit. Sun Wen turned left and right in his car, and finally parked the car under a certain building.
The lights at night should make people feel warm, but Sun Wen stood downstairs and looked up, feeling only a little cold in his heart, and couldn't help tightening the unlined clothes on his body.
"I have arrived."
The phone was connected, and a few seconds later the electronic access control beeped, indicating that it could be opened.
"When will you be with a rich woman, let us have another meal like this."
Qin Guanglin's joking words at the beginning suddenly came to his ears. Sun Wen gritted his teeth and entered the elevator, pressed the button for the 33rd floor, and cursed in a low voice the moment the elevator door closed.
Damn it, crow's mouth!
He went to Xu Wei's room and rang the doorbell, and the electronic door opened with a click. He touched the corner of his mouth with his finger, took a deep breath and walked in.
Walking through the long corridor, the living room was brightly lit, and the sound of conversation came from the TV. Xu Wei was wrapped in a nightgown and leaned on the large sofa in the center, holding a glass of red wine in her hand. She turned her head and glanced at the sound of footsteps. , and moved his gaze to the TV screen, the cup shook slightly.
"you are late."
Sun Wen pursed his lips, didn't say a word, sat on the edge of the sofa and stretched out his hand to hold her overlapping jade feet, gently rubbing on Meihong's nails.
Xu Wei's attention was drawn to the bruise at the corner of his mouth, she raised her eyebrows and asked, "What's going on with your face?"
"There was a fight." Sun Wen said casually, lowering his head unnaturally, as if trying to cover up.
"There was a fight?"
Xu Wei squinted her eyes and looked at him. After thinking for a moment, she smiled lightly, took a sip of red wine, and said leisurely, "Is it because someone caught him in bed?"
Sensing the change in the strength of Sun Wen's hand, she immediately confirmed her guess in her heart, and slowly withdrew her smile, "That's why you were late?"
"...No." Sun Wen touched the corner of his mouth, "This happened yesterday."
Xu Wei looked at him for a while, then turned her eyes to the TV in a blink of an eye, and said, "I didn't bother to care about you before, but now, I don't want to have a next time, understand?"
"clear."
"Let go, have a drink with me."
Seeing Sun Wen get up to pour the wine, Xu Wei seemed to think of something, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Those old women... aren't you afraid of killing them?"
"..."
"You're not as talkative as before." Xu Wei shook her head, and motioned to the side with her eyes, "Sit down, just like you were at the bar."
"Can it still be the same as in the bar?" Sun Wen smiled self-deprecatingly, and took a big sip from the glass.
Back then no matter how rich she was, it was none of his business, the two were equal and each took what he needed. Now it is a money relationship, which is no longer equal in terms of status.
"It's very simple, I'll give you money, you just don't want it, just like it was at the beginning."
"You put it that way, it's really simple."
"Then do you want more?"
"Why not?" Sun Wen asked back.
Be it a fellow daoist or a trader, they all do the same thing anyway, so of course he will not refuse money.
Thinking about it now, he still regretted that he didn't collect money during the few months he was a fellow Taoist.
It's a bit of a loss.
After earning enough money, sell the car, take all the money back to my hometown, and open a small supermarket or noodle restaurant in the county. When I lived with Xu Yue, he even practiced his cooking skills. That small town is enough.
It's good to get rid of this place in Los Angeles completely.
"You called me here just to drink?"
"I don't want to go out, and I'm bored."
"It's really boring." Sun Wen nodded. It can be seen from the dog blood drama on TV. If it is not boring, who would watch this thing
"How's that ex-girlfriend of yours doing? Now that you're a mess, did you go to her again?" Xu Wei tilted her head and asked with a smile, "Would it be nice to throw a wad of money at her face? "
"Too naive." Sun Wen shrugged and smiled, "I haven't looked for it, but I heard that she is engaged and will get married in two months."
"Seeing you like this, do you want to make trouble?"
"No, what can I do, of course I wish her well."
"Will you bless her?"
"Why not?"
"Hehe." Xu Wei smiled and said nothing.
Sun Wen turned the wine glass lightly, looked at the dark red wine inside and didn't make a sound.
Blessings, of course blessings.
If it wasn't for his ex-girlfriend and the man he beat up violently, nothing would happen to the studio.
He will never become what he is now.
How can you not bless you
"Have you also been ... cheated in your relationship?" Sun Wen asked suddenly.
"No."
"No?"
Facing Sun Wen's suspicious eyes, Xu Wei raised her head and took a sip of her wine, saying, "Why do you ask that?"
"Then why are you..." Sun Wen gestured to the two of them, "You are different from those 'old women', they are purely venting, you are not."
"Of course I'm different from them, I just find it interesting."
"interesting?"
"It's difficult to understand?" Xu Wei asked.
"Indeed." Sun Wen nodded.
Such a woman can have everything she wants, so how can she indulge herself
"Then what do you think I should be like?"
"Well… "
Sun Wen was speechless, what should it be
"Looking for someone to marry? A husband and a child? Live a so-called 'normal' and 'serious' life?" Seeing him in a daze, Xu Wei leaned on the back of the sofa and laughed.
"How should I put it... I worked desperately to get to where I am today, just to get rid of that life, just to be free."
"free?"
"Do what you want to do, and don't do what you don't want to do."
"—Now I did it." She drank the wine in her glass in one gulp, leaned back on the sofa and looked at Sun Wen and said:
"How do you say that? The wealth accumulated by human beings for thousands of years, all the knowledge, insight, wisdom, and art are like gifts specially prepared for me. Prosperous technology, prosperous cities, and the achievements of modern civilization can be used by me. Enjoy as much as you want, I can freely choose to drive a Maserati or a Da Ben, take care of you or take care of others—
I am free and can live my life however I want. "
"Why do I need a husband and a child? Do I need a man to be the master of the house?"
Sun Wen was speechless. After a moment of silence, he nodded and said, "It's very backward."
He really couldn't imagine the happiness of a rich man.
"No, I'm the waves." Xu Wei smiled, "The brightest waves."
"..."
"Life is short for a few decades, and I have to live it according to my own ideas. This is my motivation to make money in the first place."
Sun Wen pursed his lips, looked down at the car keys on his waist, "So... all this is for fun?"
What he couldn't earn in half his life was just because she found it interesting, so he got it.
I can't tell what it feels like in my heart, there is no anger, no injustice, just powerlessness.
People are really different.
"Isn't it fun to have a pet that is always on call?" Xu Wei raised his chin with her toes, her eyes full of smiles.
"Of course, if one day you don't want to do it, we can go back to the previous relationship-you are really good."
