Chapter 203: Stirring a hornet's nest

Views:

I had a meal with Ji Guanxin and the others in the afternoon. After the meal, it was almost six o'clock in the evening. It's dark outside.

Ji Guanxin insisted on sending me back to the apartment, and the others smiled and said goodbye to me, leaving first.

I looked at Ji Guanxin and said, "You've been working hard all day. Go home and rest quickly. I'll be fine."

Ji Guanxin said: "I just go home and have nothing to do. Let's go and take you back."

I stopped a taxi and Ji Guanxin and I sat in the back.

On the way, I said to him: "Whenever you are free, I will treat you to dinner."

Ji Guanxin said: "Any time."

I said, "Okay, just for these two days, I'll call Brother Jiahui and the others."

Ji Guanxin looked at me and asked, "Why are you calling them?"

I looked at her and replied, "Brother Jiahui even helped me open the door. I have to treat her to a meal as a token of appreciation, right?"

Ji Guanxin said: "I asked them to get it, just treat me to it."

I glanced at him and said contemptuously: "I'm treating you and it doesn't cost you any money. Why are you so stingy?"

Ji Guanxin raised his eyebrows and replied, "Can't you help me save money?"

I said, "No need."

We both argued all the way back to the apartment. The taxi stopped and I said to Ji Guanxin, "I'm going up."

Ji Guanxin said: "I'll send you up."

I said, "No, please go back quickly and recover. I'll call you in the next two days."

Ji Guanxin said 'hmm' and then said: "If you are scared at night, call me."

He said it with a serious look on his face, but I glared at him and replied with a smile: "That's a nice thought, I'm leaving."

I got out of the car on the other side, closed the car door and waved to him, then turned and walked towards the apartment door.

Mak Ka Fai only gave me the key to the new door. When I walked to the door, I remembered that I didn’t have the key card for the outside door on me. When I was worried about what to do, there was a "click" and someone came out from inside. I quickly followed the trend. Got in.

Standing in the elevator, I am not afraid of being alone. But thinking that what happened yesterday was an accident, I advised myself to be more cautious and nothing would happen again.

With a ding, the elevator door opened. I walked out and saw the hostess of the house opposite coming out to take out the trash. She nodded and smiled at me, and I nodded and smiled back.

Taking the key, I walked toward my apartment. The woman behind me suddenly stopped me and said, "Hey, that..."

I turned my head and looked at her.

She said to me: "Is everything settled?"

I looked at her eyes that were obviously worried but actually gossiping, and replied aloud: "The police said that the person last night was the wrong person. I don't know him."

The woman was relieved and said repeatedly: "Let me tell you, how could you, a little girl, get into trouble with that kind of social gangster?"

I just smiled and said nothing, thinking why I didn't see you come out to say a few words last night.

After the woman finished speaking, she added: "Someone came over this morning to install a door for you. It was a very luxurious one. Our family wanted to buy it before, but we were afraid that the elderly at home wouldn't be able to open it, so we didn't buy it. "

I still smiled and didn't answer.

Seeing this, the woman finally said something that interested me a little bit. She said: "Someone came to you just now, rang your doorbell, and knocked on the door again. You were not at home, so I told him that you were like this last night." Something happened, and then he left. Was he your friend or a family member? "

I raised my eyes slightly and asked aloud: "When did it happen?"

"Just now, fifteen minutes at most."

I said: "Male or female? What do they look like?"

The woman replied: "The man is wearing a pair of sunglasses. He is tall and handsome. He looks to be in his twenties. He is wearing brand-name clothes. By the way, he said his surname is Luo and asked you to contact him when you come back."

The surname is Luo, so it must be Luo Xiangdong.

I nodded and said 'thank you', then turned and walked towards the door of my apartment.

No wonder someone said that they had replaced the best security door. When I looked at the all-black, thick and gorgeous door in front of me, it looked like the door of the national treasury opened inside. I was a little confused whether the key in my hand could open it at once.

After standing at the door and watching for more than ten seconds, I opened the door with the key and went in.

I left in a hurry last night and didn't take my keys, room card, or mobile phone with me.

Standing at the entrance, I turned on the light and saw my mobile phone on the shoe cabinet. When I picked it up and clicked it, it was full of missed calls and unread text messages, and the most recent ones were all displayed as 'East'.

I couldn't describe how I felt, including the fact that the aunt next door said that Luo Xiangdong came to see me personally. At that moment, I was just a little surprised, but not happy.

As for why I was unhappy, it was of course the phone call last night.

I'm not angry at Du Ting for being cold to me or even refusing to save me. I'm just angry at Du Ting for sleeping with Luo Xiangdong.

Even if I already knew that the two of them should be like this, why not just go out to eat and go shopping

But when I needed Luo Xiangdong the most, he was with Du Ting. This result is unacceptable to me. I have the illusion that I was dumped by Luo Xiangdong, even though we have never been together.

In fact, it is really difficult to understand women's hearts. Sometimes men don't even know what they have offended us, but we are already disgusted with them.

I was angry with Luo Xiangdong and didn't want to talk to him, so I simply didn't reply to his calls and text messages.

The next morning, I was already awake before the alarm clock on my phone went off. I got up early to clean up, put on a high-necked dark blue woolen skirt, and paired it with a large sweater jacket that I bought for several hundred yuan when I went shopping with Xu Lu, and went out.

The cabinet was full of Gucci, LV, and Prada coats, and I didn’t even take a look at them, just because they were either gifts from Luo Xiangdong or Du Ting. I was so angry last night that I threw them all out the door, even if I didn’t. There is no reason to distinguish between high and low.

Because it was still early, I ran to a nearby breakfast shop and ordered a basket of xiaolongbao and a bowl of mung bean porridge. As a result, I only ate one steamed bun and a few sips of porridge because I was so worried.

After checking out, I walked out of the store, gathered my big sweater, and walked towards Luo's.

I came early, and everyone I met along the way greeted me with a nod and a smile: "Assistant Liang."

I smiled and nodded in response.

When they reached the top floor, they saw Han Xuetong coming out of the tea room with a cup of coffee in her hand.

After seeing me, she immediately stared and said with some surprise: "Zijin, you are here."

I smiled and nodded, and replied aloud: "I'm sorry, I had something to do yesterday, and I didn't say hello to you and Sister Guan Yue."

Han Xuetong said: "Mr. Luo couldn't find you when I looked for you yesterday. He seemed very anxious. What happened yesterday?"

Hearing this, the smile on my face froze for a moment, but I quickly replied with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing. It's just that a gangster came and broke down the door in the middle of the night. It turned out that the wrong person was charged, so I called the police in the middle of the night. Go to the police station."

Han Xuetong listened to my understatement, her beautiful face was full of surprise, and she said aloud: "Is there nothing wrong with you?"

I shook my head: "It's okay."

Han Xuetong said: "There are everyone here these days, so you have to be careful when living alone."

I responded, said hello and then returned to my office.

Before nine o'clock in the morning, while I was still sitting in my office chair reading documents, the mobile phone next to me suddenly rang. I looked down and saw the caller: Dong.

It's Luo Xiangdong.

When I saw it, I subconsciously raised my eyebrows, then looked away, pretending not to notice.

The phone rings for half a minute and then hangs up automatically.

I was in a irritable mood, knowing that it was wrong to do so. Even if Luo Xiangdong slept with Du Ting, it was natural. I had no reason or position to lose my temper with him. And if I did this, how would I explain it to Luo Xiangdong later

But when a person is angry, reason can never defeat willfulness.

I would rather satisfy my own selfish desires and ignore him than answer his phone call against my will, pretending to be fine and listen to his scolding of me.

Forget it, I just don't want to see Luo Xiangdong, hear his voice, and don't want to talk to him.

Picking up the document in front of me, I looked at the neatly printed German fonts on it, as if I were reading Chinese. I understood it, but I didn't take it into my heart. I read it over and over again. I felt like an idiot, understanding but not understanding.

I threw the document on the table angrily, frowning, feeling so irritated that I couldn't tell whether I was angry with Luo Xiangdong or myself.

At this moment, the phone rang again.

I picked up the phone with an ugly face, thinking it was Luo Xiangdong calling, but a series of unfamiliar numbers were displayed on the screen.

It’s not like I haven’t had senior executives from other companies call me to discuss business matters before, so I wasn’t sure if it was because of work requirements. After hesitating for a few seconds, I answered the phone and said politely: “Hello, hello.”

"Liang Zijin, right?" A strange female voice came from the mobile phone. She sounded young.

I subconsciously replied: "I am."

My words were like poking a hornet's nest. As soon as I finished speaking, I heard the woman on the phone explode, saying sternly: "Liang Zijin, you bitch! You dare to rob my man, you fucking Don’t you know how to write the word “death”? If I don’t kill you today, I will have the same last name as you!”

To be honest, I'm quite brave. I used to get into fights a lot when I was in school, and I also cursed.

But since I graduated and started working, the level of contact I have made it completely impossible for me to use the "little girl" style of the past. Moreover, this morning, I received a call from a stranger for no reason and scolded me. .

I was shocked.

Holding the cell phone, I listened to the woman inside shouting and killing for about ten or twenty seconds. Then I realized it in hindsight, frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

"Who am I? I'm Zhou Mengyi! Liang Zijin, get the hell out of here right now, or else don't think I'll go up and tear you apart!"
