Director: "Okay, that's fine."
When Xu Cangxing spoke, he would pay attention to Jiang Ying from the corner of his eye, "Then I'll go first."
He knocked on the door because he wanted to see Jiang Ying before he left; otherwise, he wouldn't have come to talk nonsense to the director. The two had each other's WeChat, and he knew the director was still busy.
But... To be able to look at Jiang Ying one more time, he was impulsive again.
Everything he did seemed worth it to see Jiang Ying for a while.
It was the first time in Xu Cangxing's life that he did this for a woman.
Even if he was only a high school student back then, he could leave calmly after being rejected, but now if he wants never to see Jiang Ying again, he absolutely can't do it.
Thinking of this, before Xu Cangxing went out, he looked at Jiang Ying again; this time, he and Jiang Ying looked at each other for two seconds.
His heart was like boiling water, hot and restless.
After closing the door, Xu Cangxing stood at the door and took a deep breath. The image of Jiang Ying appeared in his mind, with his finger on the doorknob, and he didn't move it for a long time.
It turns out that this is what it feels like to like someone; the sweetness is mixed with anticipation, but because of the other person's identity, I feel depressed, and every minute I don't see her, sad and full of hope.
Xu Cangxing let go of the doorknob and put his palm on his chest.
The heartbeat was muffled but fast and heavy.
But when Jiang Ying comes to Gu's to work, there will be more chances for the two to meet each other.
After the design draft passes the preliminary review in a few days, he will come to Gu's daily. Thinking of this, his mood brightened instantly.
[Xu Cangxing's greed value increased by ten points. ]
...
The conversation was almost over, and Jiang Ying decided to come to work the following Monday; when she was about to leave, Gu Chen stopped her, said that he was going out just now, and took her home on the way.
This time it was Gu Chen who was driving, not the driver, so Jiang Ying sat in the passenger seat.
After about two minutes of silence, Gu Chen turned on the music, playing popular music.
Jiang Ying hadn't expected that Gu Chen would listen to such songs while driving, and she thought he would listen to some compelling music.
But such a familiar love song is very sentimental.
It makes people want to hum along with the melody, and the mood will be relaxed.
After the song ended, Gu Chen said, "Are you going to divorce Cheng Sinian?"
Jiang Ying looked at him and replied solemnly: "Yes."
Although Gu Chen knew it would be this answer, after hearing Jiang Ying's affirmative answer, he couldn't help but nod.
"Do you need my help? Cheng Sinian may disagree so easily."
Gu Chen didn't want Jiang Ying and Cheng Sinian's divorce lawsuit to drag on for a long time and waste Jiang Ying's time.
Jiang Ying shook her head, "I will let him agree, but thank you for your willingness to help."
Gu Chen: "If you need anything, just come to me, I think I can help a little."
Jiang Ying looked up at Gu Chen, his side face was very attractive, and his handsome facial features had a kind of indifference.
She said slowly: "Actually, I have been aware of this matter for a long time, but I have not been able to believe it until I have any conclusive evidence. Today, you told me, and I realized I have been avoiding it all the time."
Gu Chen: "..."
I'm sorry, these three words twirled on the tip of his tongue, and he didn't say them for a long time.
It's like he's never said sorry to anyone.
Moreover, there was nothing wrong with telling Jiang Ying about this matter, and there was no need to apologize at all, but Gu Chen knew in his heart that the reason why he meddled in this matter was for his own sake, not for Jiang Ying's, because he wanted to get Jiang Ying.
Even though he knew that Jiang Ying would be sad, he still said it in such an untactful way, without preparing Jiang Ying at all.
When she was in the office just now, her mood was obviously broken.
But he still wants to ask now.
Jiang Ying was sorrowful again.
It would be painful for anyone to learn such a thing happened between her sister she grew up with and her husband.
But he, as her sister's husband, came to tell her.
It was like poking her wounds, tearing open the scars.
The dark sense of guilt and shame made him fall into self-blame. If he was not driving, he might not be able to control himself to hug Jiang Ying.
"However, I will adjust it. Since it happened, we should solve it. Then, everything will be fine." Jiang Ying looked out of the window in a daze and said again, "It will all end."
Her voice was choked with soft tears.
Gu Chen tightened his palms, turned the steering wheel to the right, stepped on the brakes, and parked the car on the side of the road.
As soon as the car stopped, he unbuckled his seat belt, leaned over to approach Jiang Ying, locked her face tightly with his scorching eyes, held her face in his hands, and said in a gentle tone he had never had before: " He doesn't deserve your tears for him, don't cry."
Jiang Ying looked at him, twitched the corners of her mouth, and forced a smile, "I won't cry."
There was a stubborn light in her eyes.
Gu Chen's heart suddenly felt stuffy and painful. He would not make her cry if the woman in front of him belonged to him.
[Gu Chen's greed value increased by ten points. ]
Jiang Ying: "Let go of me; I'm fine."
She seemed to resist his approach, not only dodging her eyes, but her body also showed a gesture of rejection.
Even though Gu Chen had no experience, he knew his actions would scare Jiang Ying. He pursed his lips, feeling affected by Jiang Ying's reaction.
There is still singing in the car, but the brisk singing sounds annoying to the ears.
He raised his hand to turn off the music, but the movement was a bit sudden; Jiang Ying raised her head and peeked at him.
Gu Chen looked at her, saw that her eyes were moist and red, and his head became hot; he hugged her, pushed the back of her head, and kissed her lips; Jiang Ying couldn't refuse the long kiss, even forcing her to open her mouth.
The kiss didn't last long, but after Jiang Ying was released, she was still gasping for breath. Finally, she stared at Gu Chen, "Do you know what you're doing?"
Gu Chen's deep eyes flickered with a dark light, and a mysterious fire in his eyes flickered on and off: "Don't you want to take revenge on them?"
