Chapter 162: I want you to be my wife, is that okay?
It is said that time can heal the pain caused by love.
It is said that as long as the time is long enough, it is enough for you to forget someone.
But for her, it was so difficult to completely forget him.
Four years later, when he appeared in front of her again, to be honest, staying calm was the best she could do.
Lying on the bed, Shi Runrun put her hand on her chest, took a deep breath, and told herself not to think about it anymore.
She has already survived the saddest and most difficult times, so what else is there to be afraid of?!
So what if we meet again?
Their relationship ended four years ago.
Her only wish now is that the babies grow up healthy and happy.
As for what happened to him, it had nothing to do with her.
…
Shi Runrun walked around the hotel in the resort with the contract he had signed.
She had sacrificed her dignity to get this contract.
Can it be considered as charity from the so-called ex-husband?
But so what?!
With the contract, her mission this time was completed. She could go back and report, repay part of Brother Qiao's kindness, and get her own high commission.
Thinking of all this, Shi Runrun's throbbing heart calmed down again.
She should be like him, a businessman, decisive and ruthless in business matters.
Holding the contract that he approved, Shi Runrun walked around every floor of the hotel and asked the remaining bosses to sign.
At this point, she had negotiated the cooperation.
She handed all the contracts to the marketing manager for filing.
The marketing manager said to her happily, "Secretary Shi, you really are incredibly powerful! We've accomplished our mission! Why don't we go have a nice dinner and celebrate properly?"
Shi Runrun smiled sullenly, but she had no intention of celebrating.
For some reason, her mind was full of the scenes she saw when she entered his room in the afternoon...
His cold expression of disgust and disdain lingered in her mind.
Shi Runrun wiped the corners of her eyes gently in the evening breeze, and said to the marketing manager with a forced smile, "Let's talk about this after we get back. We'll ask Mr. Qiao to come along then!"
That being said, after dinner in the banquet hall that night, Shi Runrun took the elevator directly to the open-air bar on the top floor of the hotel and ordered himself a glass of liquor.
"One brandy, please."
The bartender nodded and turned to mix her drink.
Listening to the melodious slow music, Shi Runrun sat at the edge of the booth, letting the outdoor lights sweep back and forth over her body.
While waiting, she called the babies at home.
Communicate with the three little ones, whether they have eaten well in kindergarten today, what the kindergarten teacher taught them, and whether they listened to Uncle Qiao Yu.
The three little ones are very well-behaved, especially the younger sister, who is very sensible and obedient. She even said that she ate all the pork belly, which she hated the most, in kindergarten today and received praise from the teacher.
Shi Runrun felt comforted after hearing this. Her sister had symptoms of anemia since she was a child and didn't like to eat meat. Shi Runrun had always scolded her for this since she was a child. Now, she has become much more sensible.
The younger sister said that when she came back tomorrow, she hoped she could take her to buy a doll, and she wanted a Princess Elsa doll.
Shi Runrun smiled and agreed, asking her to wait for her mother to come home tomorrow and take her to the mall to buy Princess Elsa.
Finally, her brother Weiwei took the phone, looked at her and asked, "Mommy, what's wrong with you?"
Because it was a video call, and her brother was precocious, he could tell at a glance that something was wrong with her.
The main reason is that her brother is so smart and shrewd, he really looks like someone. From childhood to adulthood, no matter what is on her mind, she can't hide it from her brother.
The swaying light shone over, dazzling Shi Runrun's eyes.
Shi Runrun rubbed her eyes, covered her phone and said softly, "It's okay, it's just that Mommy is in the bar now and the lights are a bit glaring. You have to be good. When Mommy is away, you have to take good care of your brothers and sisters."
But after the phone call was hung up, Shi Runrun couldn't help it. She covered her eyes, took a deep breath, and forced herself not to cry.
For a moment she felt so spineless.
For the sake of the company's performance and the little ones' food, I used my dignity to beg for his charity.
I knew I shouldn't have signed this order.
Moreover, with this cooperation reached, Hengsheng and Guangzheng will have more exchanges in the future. What if he appears frequently in S City again...
And...and babies, Mommy met your dad today...
But Mommy can't tell him about your existence.
Because he will snatch you from Mommy, and Mommy can't lose you, she can't.
Rubbing his red eyes, the liquor was already mixed.
Shi Runrun listened to the slow and vague lingering voice, picked up the wine glass and drank it in small sips.
Fortunately, she will be back at noon tomorrow, so it doesn’t matter if she gets drunk now.
Shi Runrun was unrestrained and also thought that it would be good if she could get drunk today and forget the pain of seeing him.
As she was drinking, suddenly, a figure came up from behind and enveloped her.
A refreshing masculine scent came over, and Shi Runrun turned around and saw the slender figure in a white shirt and trousers. The clear facial features were the same as in her memory.
Shi Runrun looked at him and asked in surprise, "Why are you here? You left the babies home alone?!"
Qiao Yu glanced at her blushing face and said softly, "Nanny Li is here, don't worry."
Shi Runrun finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Qiao Yu looked down the path, and his sight was filled with women who were drunk and unaware of their condition.
He looked at her, his throat twitching, then he walked over and sat beside her, his brows slightly furrowed. "Why did you suddenly think of coming here for a drink? Are you so happy that the deal has been concluded?"
Shi Runrun looked up at him for a long moment, then smiled softly, "The cooperation is successful, and you're the one making a lot of money, but you didn't give me any!"
Qiao Yu listened and couldn't help but sneered: "If you want, I can transfer all my wealth to you tomorrow."
When Shi Runrun heard this, he was stunned.
But then, she came to her senses, waved her hands and said with a smile: "Come on, stop joking."
The next second, Qiao Yu suddenly leaned over and pressed against her. His right hand suddenly stretched out and grabbed her wrist, holding the hand with the bracelet in it, raising it in the air. Then he said to her, "I'm not kidding, Runrun. I know you saw him. I also know that you are drunk now because of him, but four years have passed, and I have been guarding you for four years. You must know what I mean to you. Now, in this hotel where he is, I want to chase you and make you my wife. Is that okay?"
