The night is as dark as water.
As the end of autumn approaches, the chill becomes more severe.
After hanging up the phone, Su Yun went to the dance room and started practicing ballet.
She didn't pay much attention to the delicate female voice on Sheng Huai's phone just now. After all, there have been endless scandals surrounding President Sheng over the years.
She is no longer the little girl who used to be jealous and secretly sad.
Compared to a man’s sincerity, the one million dollars deposited into the card every month is more real!
It was not until the servant came with medicine and urged her several times that she came out of the dance studio, sweating profusely. Her sweaty hair stuck to her smooth forehead, and her whole body felt sticky and uncomfortable.
After drinking the medicine in one breath, she went into the bathroom.
The shower head tilted like rain, and water droplets condensed on the skin that was white as frost and snow. Strands of long hair that reached the waist stuck to the exquisite curves, outlining all kinds of charm.
After taking a shower and changing into a loose silk bathrobe, she lay on the sofa with her feet up, lit a cigarette in her hand, and chatted with Xiaoyu while smoking.
Since Sheng Huai was not around, the content of the conversation was not restricted.
Xiaoyu sent me a photo.
In the photo, Su Yun is standing in front of a wall of honor, with the awards she has won behind her.
"Xiao Yun, do you regret it now?"
Su Yun didn't reply for a long time, just staring at the phone.
As I watched, my eyes became sore.
Then Su Yun raised the corners of her lips and smiled.
"Why are you asking the same question as Teacher Yun?"
"There's nothing to regret, except that I feel a little sorry for my parents."
Xiaoyu didn't understand what she meant.
"nothing."
Su Yun changed the subject: "When are you coming back? Xiao Qi is looking for you all over the world. He said you left without saying goodbye again like before."
"Don't mention him!"
"What about you? Have you had any quarrels with that crazy CEO recently?"
Su Yun did not tell Xiaoyu that she was locked up because Xiaoyu had a quick temper and Su Yun was worried that she would suffer in order to stand up for her.
"I'm fine."
He shook off the ash with his slender fingers and blew out a smoke ring elegantly.
She answered nonchalantly: "Sheng Huai may have a new sister outside."
Xiaoyu's voice suddenly became louder.
"What!"
"That Jiang... Jiang what--has the story been moved on?"
As the two were chatting, the servant came in with a tray, and his eyes paused for a moment on the cigarette in her hand.
Then, he said respectfully: "Madam, before my husband left, he told you to drink a glass of milk before going to bed at night."
Su Yun nodded: "I understand, just put it on the table."
The servant didn't move, just stared at her.
"The master has instructed that you must finish drinking it before going to bed."
"I said I know! Get out!"
The servant looked very embarrassed, and pleaded in a gentle tone: "Madam, please drink it first, otherwise if the master asks..."
Sheng Huai really treats himself like a canary.
Su Yun smiled self-deprecatingly.
The eyes that were bright just now dimmed again.
She didn't want to embarrass others, so she took the porcelain cup handed to her and poured the hot milk down her throat, but it made her feel cold inside.
The servant looked at her and wanted to persuade her.
After hesitating for a while, he finally lowered his head and retreated respectfully.
"Sheng Huai is on a business trip?"
Xiaoyu heard the noise in the house clearly: "Then you must have fun these few days. By the way, I sent some skin care products to Auntie. Remember to ask if she received them. There are also some skin care products for you."
"Su Yun, are you listening?"
She came back to her senses and quickly picked up the phone: "I'm listening."
Xiaoyu asked about Sheng Huai's new lover again: "Is that bastard having an affair with that woman again?"
Before she could say anything, Sheng Huai's messages popped up one after another.
[On the phone? ]
[Who are you chatting with so late? ]
【Haven't finished chatting yet? ! 】
【Answer the phone! 】
Su Yun stared at the news that was flooding in like locusts, and lightly stroked Sheng Huai's portrait with her slender fingers...
The whole world was quiet.
She chatted with Xiaoyu until three in the morning before hanging up the phone.
Xiaoyu reminded her that the woman's voice on Sheng Huai's phone might be Jiang Zhi's.
But Su Yun thought it was unlikely.
She had dealt with Miss Jiang several times before. If it was really her, she would have been eager to provoke her in a roundabout way.
Who cares who she is!
Instead of wasting time, it’s better to go to bed early.
…
In the luxurious private room.
The aroma of incense lingers in the air, and the sound of the bowl helps you sleep.
"Ah...gently."
“It hurts!”
"Don't……"
The boss of partner Party B was lying on the massage bed with a mask of pain on his face.
"Mr. Sheng, how can this local specialty be a massage... Ouch... Be gentle, sister!"
"Why don't you press it?!"
"You look so bad? Are you worried about something?"
Sheng Huai was wearing a well-tailored black suit and standing at the door of the private room with a gloomy face, his eyes fixed on the red exclamation mark on the dialog box on his mobile phone.
He was blocked by Su Yun again.
I called and the call was ongoing.
It's so late.
I have only been on a business trip for a few days, and this woman is so impatient.
Three o'clock in the morning...
Sheng Huai called Secretary Gao.
Give a brief command.
"Book me the earliest flight back to Li City immediately!"
Secretary Gao was surprised: "Mr. Sheng, the contract will be signed in two days. This project is very important. It is an important part of our winning the agency rights for high-end fashion."
Sheng Huai didn't say anything.
Did the boss have a fight with his wife again?
Secretary Gao's eyes lit up. She thought for a few seconds before speaking cautiously, "Mr. Sheng, Miss Liu touched your phone during the day."
"Um?"
"…Listen to my explanation. It's just a coincidence."
She wanted to cry but had no tears. During the encrypted meeting in the morning, everyone's cell phones were in the hands of their secretaries. How could it be such a coincidence...
After taking too many diet pills, she went to the toilet, and Liu Mei "kindly" helped her carry her bag.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Sheng didn't react much after hearing this.
"Mr. Sheng, what about the plane ticket..."
"It's okay, work is going on as normal."
Sheng Huai raised his hand and hung up the phone.
He is a businessman who values profit and was just unhappy for a moment.
Giving up a big business for a woman would never appear in Sheng Huai's life dictionary.
I put down the phone, put on a loose cotton bathrobe, and sat on the balcony to smoke.
A huge floor-to-ceiling window offers a panoramic view of the night view of the entire bustling city.
Sheng Huai stared at the neon lights not far away. His handsome face was hidden in the darkness and his expression could not be seen clearly.
Thinking about what Secretary Gao just said, his eyes narrowed. Was Su Yun jealous that a woman answered his call, so she blocked him?
Such a bad temper!
He raised his hand and tried to send another message.
[My wife has turned on friend verification, but you are not her friend yet...]
Sheng Huai frowned, but still patiently called her again.
[Hello, the user you dialed has turned off the phone! ]
Oh.
He really has become very capable. His face turned grim as he lit a cigarette and took a deep puff.
Five o'clock in the middle of the night...
The housekeeper of Sheng's house, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by a shrill telephone ring.
"gentlemen?"
"It's so late... Do you have any instructions?"
There was silence on the phone for a moment.
"It's okay, wrong number!"
Sheng Huai hung up the phone heavily.
I really can't say it because my wife blocked me so I can only call the phone in the villa...
He didn't sleep all night, and carefully screened in his mind the people who might have called Su Yun in the middle of the night.
Until there was a knock on the door.
Sheng Huaicai got up from the sofa on the hotel balcony.
The early morning sun shone on his well-defined abdominal muscles, and his eyes were filled with fatigue.
The door opens.
Liu Mei smiled coquettishly.
"Good morning."
