Chapter 52: Women are afraid of marrying the wrong man

Their eyes met, and Chu Shuang pretended to be calm, "Are you going to sleep here tonight?"

Sheng Ting put down the towel, "Not just tonight."

He glanced at her beautiful eyes and raised his thin lips slightly, "I promised to wake you up when I come back."

Steadying her chaotic heartbeat, Chu Shuang said politely, "Thank you for your help."

After staring at her for two seconds, the man chuckled.

Her thoughts are basically all on her face, what can she hide?

Clumsy and silly.

Her phone dinged and a new message came in.

Lin Su: [Hahaha, you saw it.]

Hatsushimo: [I just noticed this by accident. I was wondering why this little maid looks familiar. Is this your first cameo in a drama?]

Lin Su: [Yes, it was filmed two years ago. I was just an extra in a palace maiden, and didn’t have many scenes. I’m currently filming a new drama at the Film City, playing the third female lead.]

Hatsushimo: [Great, making progress bit by bit.]

Sheng Ting went to bed, glanced at the chat interface on her phone, and then started reading a book without saying anything.

There was silence in the room for a long time.

After chatting with Lin Su for a while, she said that she had an early show the next morning and had to take a rest. After they said good night to each other, Chu Shuang turned off her phone and looked in the direction of Sheng Ting.

The man looked over and asked, "Who are you chatting with for so long?"

A light and casual tone.

"A junior girl in a club in college, she was picked by a talent scout in her sophomore year and later went into the entertainment industry."

Flipping through the photo on her phone, Chu Shuang pointed at a young palace maid next to the emperor and said, "Look, that's her. Isn't she very pleasing?"

Sheng Ting looked at the photo and came to his senses, "Is she the person you just saw downstairs?"

"Yeah, it's fun to see old friends on TV."

"I heard from Sheng Yao that you were also picked up by a talent scout when you were in school?"

Hatsushimo was a little surprised, "You even know this?"

"If you thought it was fun, why did you refuse it?"

"I'm afraid of being scolded. Being a star means being scrutinized by others from all angles, which is not something most people can bear. If you're not famous, you don't have the resources, but if you're famous, you're likely to get into trouble."

"Besides, what am I looking for? Some people seek fame and fortune, some people pursue dreams. I am not interested in this circle. Secondly, I am not a professional. Professional matters should be left to professionals. I won't compete with others for jobs. Painting makes me happier."

Sheng Ting nodded, "Very sober."

"As a human being, the most important thing is to know your own position."

Hatsushimo put her phone away and prepared to go to sleep. She moved a little and accidentally pulled the wound on her knee, and took a deep breath.

The man put down the book and took the ointment from the bedside table.

“Apply it again before going to bed.”

I lifted the quilt and applied medicine on the first frost, but after applying it, I was faced with a problem.

Seeing her thinking, Sheng Ting asked, "What's wrong?"

"If I sleep like this, the ointment will get on the quilt. I can't cover myself with the quilt."

"Just change the quilt if it gets stained." Sheng Ting pulled the quilt over her and covered her with it. "Will it cause any cuts?"

Hatsushimo shook her head: "No."

"That's it."

Her eyes swept over his well-defined jawline, and Hatsushimo lay down with the quilt in her arms, "Good night."

The man's voice was charming and pleasant, "Good night."

The next day, Sheng Ting's biological clock woke up automatically, but Chu Shuang was still sleeping soundly beside him.

Her thick hair almost covered her entire face. No one knew how she slept. The man snorted and helped her to push her hair away.

Get up, dress and wash before calling her to get up.

It is much easier for people who haven't drunk to get up. Chu Shuang saw the man in a suit and leather shoes in front of the bed, and said in a hoarse voice, "Good morning."

"Good morning Hatsushiro."

Sheng Ting helped to wash her face briefly, but she could wash it herself if she was careful. But Chu Shuang liked this considerate care.

Opportunities don't come every day.

How can someone have such a dull and stern face and be so patient in doing things?

——

The editor-in-chief left and the position became vacant. Everyone thought that the department head, Ms. Xu, would be promoted.

At the morning meeting, the manager brought a woman over and said that she would be the editor-in-chief in the future. For a moment, all the colleagues in the group were a little confused.

The woman looked young, around 25 or 26 years old. I had never seen her in the company before. I heard that she had jumped ship from another company.

Everyone was quite dissatisfied with letting a newcomer from another company be the editor-in-chief, especially Sister Xu, as the position should have originally belonged to her.

It would be strange if you felt good about being suddenly interfered by, especially by someone whose qualifications in every aspect are not better than yours.

Chu Shuang comforted Xu Shiyin in private.

I think this kind of thing is no longer uncommon in the workplace.

Han Zhenhao somehow drove to Kite Animation again, and unknowingly arrived here.

He parked the car and looked at the CBD building, feeling bored. He didn't understand his own behavior.

Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I caught a glimpse of someone coming out of the company building.

It's time to get off work.

After thinking about it, he turned off the engine, got out of the car, and went to the dessert shop she often went to.

I ordered a small cake that I didn't like very much, found a seat that was not too conspicuous, and sat down. After taking a few bites, my eyes were always on the entrance of their company.

Some people came out one after another, some came to the store to buy desserts, but she was nowhere to be seen.

"Hey, did you see Sister Shuangshuang today? The wound on her body is really a sin."

Two women at the next table started chatting while waiting for dessert.

Because it came from Kite Animation and mentioned a familiar name, Han Zhenhao paid close attention.

"Injured? Didn't you see it? I said hello to her when I came into the company this morning. Wasn't she fine?"

"What's good? My arms are covered in bruises," the woman looked around and lowered her voice. "I went downstairs to get a document at noon and accidentally saw it. The wounds can't be covered by long sleeves."

The other woman was shocked. "Is it her husband's violence again?"

Han Zhenhao raised his eyes.

"Don't mention it. When she got married last year, I heard that the man's family was not bad. I thought Sister Shuangshuang married well. Who knew that the man started beating people after just a few months." The woman sighed regretfully, "This is not the first or second time. What kind of life is she living? She still doesn't divorce after all this."

"Maybe the man is too strong. This marriage is not easy to get divorced. She is really optimistic. Every time I see her, she is polite and gentle. How could that man have the heart to do that to her?"

"It is said that men are afraid of choosing the wrong career and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. If I were her, I would probably be depressed."

It was time to get off work, and after doing the last bit of finishing work, Chu Shuang packed up her things and prepared to go downstairs, but was stopped by the new editor-in-chief.

"Do you want to go downstairs?"

"go home."

"A work document of mine has been delivered to the company's front desk. Since you are going downstairs, please help me get it up." Sun Mengzhu said in a matter-of-fact tone.

It was as if he treated Chushuang as a subordinate who ran errands for him.

"Thank you." Sun Mengzhu said lightly and continued to look through the documents.

Forget it. He is my boss after all. It’s okay if he helps me with something small and not too troublesome occasionally.

I took the elevator downstairs and negotiated with the front desk lady. She understood the situation and asked Chu Shuang to sign it, and then she went to find the document for her.

After signing, Chu Shuang waited for her to find the document. He inadvertently saw a slight purple mark on the woman's wrist and his eyes paused.
