Don’t Turn from Summer - Chapter 65
Two weeks later.
Mu Hanxia has never been to the company, and naturally someone is curious about gossip. When the company had a lunch at this day, some employees were familiar with Lin Mochen, and asked with a smile, “Mr. Lin, why has Mr. Mu been taking leave all the time? Isn’t it because of your golden house?”
Prior to Lin Mochen and Mu Hanxia, the company only knew a few henchmen. So this question is really bold. Everyone at the table watched the reaction of the young boss secretly.
Lin Mochen took the tea and took a sip, with a smile on the corner of her mouth: “I don’t want to hide. She wants to rest herself.”
Everyone was stunned. He said that he was confessing. Then all congratulations, the female colleagues were envious and excited. Some people said, “Mr. Lin, then you and Manager Mu can invite everyone to dinner next time, but we are all your witnesses.”
Lin Mochen replied, “Well, when she’s rested, I’ll take her to meet everyone.”
Everyone cheered and said yes. The atmosphere of a working meal originally became joyful and lively.
In the noise, Sun Zhi lit a cigarette, stood by the door, and looked at his boss with a smile. Seeing him sitting among the crowd, there was a slight smile between his eyebrows.
Sun Zhi is the closest person in the company to Lin Mochen. He feels that Lin Mochen has changed a bit compared to before the accident. Although the boss’s character was also arrogant before, but he got along for a long time, it felt warm. He also jokes with the employees, but there is nothing to show. That cold and arrogant, it’s more a kind of open-minded and spirited.
But now, after the previous incident, Sun Zhi only felt that there was a real coldness all over him. Quiet and quieter than before. He became restrained, making it harder to guess what he thought.
However, once it was related to Mu Hanxia, the young boss seemed to become more humane again. When it comes to her, he laughs. Sometimes at work, Sun Zhi would see him pull out his cell phone and call her. As long as he can push the entertainment, he will not go, and return to the hotel directly after work. To be honest, Sun Zhi now feels that the boss finally looks like a competent boyfriend.
After that night, instead of breaking up, the two lived together. If not for true love, how can I do it?
This evening, Lin Mochen and Sun Zhi also had an important entertainment. After work, Lin Mochen had some things to deal with, and Sun Zhi went downstairs and waited. After smoking a cigarette, he glanced at a jewellery store not far away, and he went in with a thought.
He picked it at the counter for a while, and saw Lin Mochen come in.
Lin Mochen: “What are you doing?”
Sun Zhi smiled and answered, “I think of a few days as the tenth anniversary of my wedding. I want to give a gift to my wife. President Lin, do you want to pick a gift for your girlfriend?”
Lin Mochen did not answer.
He glanced down at the goods on the counter, and soon his eyes stopped on a ring. Very fine rustic platinum with a small diamond. The simplest style inexplicably reminded him of her.
“Take it out and see.” He said.
The salesman took out the ring and handed it to him, and he put it in the palm of his hand and looked silently.
Seeing this, Sun Zhi came together: “Ring, aren’t you planning to propose, Mr. Lin?”
“It’s still early to propose.” Lin Mochen answered with a smile in his eyes. “But the ring is suitable. You can buy it first.”
Sun Zhi suddenly felt quite touched.
In the end, Sun Zhi bought a necklace, and Lin Mochen bought the ring, packed it in a simple black velvet box, and put it in the coat pocket.
——
Twilight low, Mu Hanxia walked aimlessly along the small river bank below the hotel. The sky is gray and the scenery is familiar. In her heart, there was always an empty feeling.
Unconsciously, he went downstairs to Fengchen. She looked up and looked at the familiar building. Lin Mochen was probably still busy, she was a little cyanotic.
These days, she has been applying for a visa.
They live together.
There was a soft, slightly painful emotion in her heart, and she quietly suppressed it.
“Han Xia?” Someone called her. She turned and saw a colleague she knew. She smiled: “After work?” Colleagues looked at her quite curiously. “General Manager Lin said you want to take a break. Everyone thought you were going to be a full-time wife. Why did you come to wait for General Manager to work? Love you! “
Mu Hanxia froze for a moment, she did not know that Lin Mochen had made their relationship public.
She didn’t want him to.
“Oh … oh, I just walked.” She replied.
The colleague said, “Ah, yes, Mr. Lin is not in the company now. He went to a business banquet in the city, a very important banquet, such as government agencies, Rong Yue, Ding Sheng, Xue’s Group, etc. The top ones will go. Madam, you can go back and wait. It is estimated that the boss has to entertain late today. “
Mu Hanxia smiled “um”, chatted with her colleague a few more, and said goodbye.
it’s dark.
Mu Hanxia sat on the steps near the square. No one is here tonight, and she never met those skateboarding youths. Indifferent and silent.
A sudden thought came to her mind:
Both Feng Chen and Xue’s will go to the banquet tonight.
Will Lin Mochen meet Xue Ning?
Will they talk?
What kind of atmosphere would be between the two of them?
…
Mu Hanxia was suddenly upset. The seemingly calm heart lake for many days, the original has been hiding the rapids and dark currents, as soon as the wind blows, it will be revealed.
She sat silent for a long time, suddenly got up, hurried to the side of the road, and hit a car.
“Master, go to Hotel xx.” She reported the address of the banquet that she heard from her colleague today.
“Okay!” The taxi driver kicked the throttle and began to take her through the colorful night scene of the city.
It won’t be long before it arrives. Far away, the roof of the top luxury hotel has been seen.
She in the back seat suddenly said, “Master, turn around and go back.”
“Ah? Not going?”
The car was quiet for several seconds before I heard her say, “No more.”
Mu Hanxia got downstairs at the hotel where she was staying. Instead of going upstairs immediately, she stood for a while in the cold night wind and called the old man.
“Hey, Lao Fang. Are you busy? Well, nothing else, just tell you something. I’ll leave in a few days … Okay, let’s have another meal together, I ask you … No, you must be me Please. “She raised her head and looked at the deep endless night sky above her head.” Well, I think clearly. I have seen it clearly, the way in my heart. I will not regret it, and I will not look back. “
“Bert’s condition has improved, and he might wake up? Great. Okay, I will visit him when I arrive in the United States.”
I don’t know what the other side said. She was silent for a while, and whispered, “I’m going to chop up.”
Hanging up the phone, she stood in place and paused for a long time.
America, New York University, Burt … these seem to be far away.
She remembered those lingering nights, the kiss he had stamped on her forehead when he went out to work early in the morning, and every time he silently embraced from behind … engraved in her heart, which she got greedily. She stood at the fork, knowing whether to walk or stay, only staying in place was the wrong thing. But she just refused to take a step.
However, many realizations of life come in an instant. Just as she was completely irrational just now, sitting in a taxi to the hotel where he and Xue Ning were, suddenly understood. Whether he will still be close to Xue Ning, whether he will still talk to her, whether he will play with other women in the future, or whether he will be confused and interested, it is no longer important.
Because the seeds of jealousy and disappointment were already buried in her heart.
…
She asked herself more than once, but also such a short, but so full of life, where should she go?
Now she knows.
In the college entrance examination many years ago, she was a fool of fate. She was the best, but fell to the lowest life.
When in Jiangcheng, she was the abandoned son of Meng Gang.
Later, in love, one day, she became Lin Mochen’s abandoned son.
…
She can’t stop.
She has to go.
Go to a more open and lonely distance in life.
Because of this life, she no longer wants to be an outcast of others.
——
When Lin Mochen returned that night, it was already late at night.
He looked in the gloom in the room, and saw the man motionless on the bed. He changed his shoes lightly in the entrance and turned on a very dark wall lamp. Then take off the coat, glance over the pockets, and the movement of hanging clothes becomes very detailed.
He went to the shower and went to bed. The woman in the bed was lying on her back peacefully, her arms and feet stretched out. Lin Mochen laughed. These days, his sleep habits are clear to him. If she fell asleep, she would inevitably change to a lying position.
If he pretended to be asleep, he always lay on his side, holding his back to him at night.
Is it resistance or self-protection?
Lin Mochen was lying on his side, his arms crossed her waist and holding her hand on the other side. She pressed her chin against her long hair and closed her eyes.
Mu Hanxia suddenly woke up at a certain moment. It seemed to be awakened by something, but it was quiet around. Nothing appeared in her dreams.
The room was still dark, and his clear breathing sound wrapped around his ears. And his warm body. Mu Hanxia slowly turned her head and looked at him.
I can’t see the eyebrows, only the blurred cheek outline.
Suddenly, Mu Hanxia’s heart surged in loneliness. She took his hands on her waist and got up, almost with a rustling sound, and changed her clothes. Then start packing.
Perhaps it was too dark at night, and people’s hearts seemed to be chaotic. Her mind was a little dazed, but she seemed sober. Her suitcase was almost sorted out, she just needed to put in some daily necessities. She stood in the entrance far from the bed, and shoved her towel and pajamas in the dim light. She thought that she should not leave any trace of her life …
Suddenly, his hand was grasped by a hand extended behind him. She was sweating all over, looking at the hand of the slender man. His body is behind her. The light was then turned on.
All the lights in the house turned on and off, and the room was bright. Mu Hanxia couldn’t adapt to this sudden light, and reached out to cover her eyes. As a result, the other hand was also grasped hard. Then he turned her around, and the two stood face to face.
The moment Mu Hanxia looked up, there was tears in his eyes, and he looked at him silently.
He also stared at her. The eyes are deep and quiet.
After a moment of silence, he smiled suddenly and said, “What’s the matter in the middle of the night? What do you want? Find something tomorrow and come back to bed.”
Mu Hanxia didn’t say a word or move.
He looked as usual, raising his hand to embrace her shoulder. Mu Hanxia wanted to break free, but he didn’t seem to have expected it, her arms tightened tightly, and she still held her firmly in her arms.
Mu Hanxia’s tears suddenly fell and she said slowly, “Lin Mochen, I’m not looking for something. I have something to tell you.”
There was no expression on his side.
Mu Hanxia exhaled slowly, feeling that the dull pain was in the throat and in the chest.
“It’s three o’clock in the middle of the night.” His eyes looked out the window. “What’s the matter, say tomorrow. I’m on vacation tomorrow. I was going to take you to the suburbs. Let’s talk there.”
Suddenly Mu Hanxia couldn’t say anything. She heard her mute voice saying, “Okay, that’s it.”
He raised his hand to turn off all the lights, and the room was suddenly dark. He held her hand tightly and walked back to the bed. Mu Hanxia is cold all over, and the knuckles are stiff. She lay back on the bed, and he lay down. Neither of them moved.
After a while, she turned away and turned her back to him. He reached out almost at the same time, dragging her into his arms a little bit. One arm forced through under her neck and the other clasped her waist. Mu Hanxia couldn’t move, he could only let him hug the whole night silently with such a complete restraint.
