Love in Hancheng

Chapter 20 Leaving his world and looking for himself (1)
I think I can think of a reason why my mother stopped me from liking Han Dongcheng, because she married Han Qinan, because Han Qinan didn't want me to get too close to Han Dongcheng, although Han Qinan never said that, But I can feel it.

Perhaps, after Han Qinan married his mother, it was decided that there should be no result between Han Dongcheng and me.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but smile wryly, I don't know whether I should be relieved or sad.

When I think that Han Dongcheng really doesn't hate me that much, but there is an indescribable bitterness, an indescribable, unexplainable grievance, it makes me feel like I have touched a corner of a mirage.

But reason tells me another fact, even if Han Dongcheng doesn't hate me that much, it doesn't mean he likes me, not to mention that he already has a perfect Huo Lingsha by his side.

I can love someone, but I can't destroy that person's love. I can like Han Dongcheng, but I can't break up others because of my liking.

It's like Han Dongcheng and Huo Lingsha, like Ji Mingchuan and Liang Yuyou.

I also have my limits.

So, there is no need to think about it.

Ye Xiaoran called, and I answered it immediately. Of course, she was silent at first and didn't know how to speak. When she heard my calm tone and seemed not in such a bad mood, Ye Xiaoran told me something she had said. The scene seen.

I understand that the fact that I married Ji Mingchuan yesterday will naturally surprise my colleagues at Xuantian Technology and Chengjutianxia. After waking up, I was shocked by the big news of Liang Yuyou's suicide. It's not hard to imagine how the employees of the two companies would describe me now.

Of course, there are different opinions about the idea that I am the daughter of the Han family. Ye Xiaoran didn't go into it, but cut to the point with a sigh: "I really didn't expect Ji Mingchuan to be such a man, did he apologize to you? Listen It is said that many reporters are squatting in front of Han's house!"

I didn't know that there were reporters squatting outside. If that was the case, when Ji Mingchuan went out just now, reporters should follow him. I don't know how those news media will report, but I am not interested in these.

"Here, I let him go back."

My words were very light, and Ye Xiaoran was a little surprised by the attitude and tone of expression: "That's all? The two families have made such a big commotion! It is estimated that half of the city knows that you are married."

I know that although this is not a big family in ancient society, it can be regarded as a marriage of a celebrity and a wealthy family. Coupled with the propaganda of reporters and media, it has a great influence, and it is by no means as simple as ordinary people getting married.

It is conceivable that if I go to Chengjutian to go to work now, how those colleagues will think of me, how they will discuss, and how they will guess me.

The scene yesterday, probably on any woman, would not let it go so easily. I didn’t accuse Ji Mingchuan Xingshi, I didn’t get super friendly with him, my attitude was peaceful, and I could even understand that Ji Mingchuan had to do that at that time. But that doesn't mean it can be forgiven.

No one wants to pay for other people's feelings and get hurt, and naturally I am the same.

"It's just entertainment gossip, and people will forget about it after a while."

Perhaps as Ye Xiaoran said, now it is estimated that most people in the city know me. Of course, with the rapid development of the Internet today, there may be people in the world who know me.

And this kind of "knowledge" will be forgotten soon, not to mention that I am not a celebrity, maybe I am just a supporting role.

Hearing what I said, Ye Xiaoran didn't mean to settle accounts with Ji Mingchuan, and she couldn't say anything more, after all, she also agreed with me in choosing Ji Mingchuan back then.

After hanging up Ye Xiaoran's phone call, I decided not to pay attention to any news or gossip, maybe I should take a break to let myself relax, I don't know when to start, I feel so tired from life, so tired that I want to find someone's shoulder to lean on Reliable, only to find out that it is not reliable.

In the huge Han house, the excitement from yesterday no longer exists. Han Dongcheng and Han Qinan may have both gone to the company, but naturally there is no sign of them. Mom went to rest. I am a little bored by myself. Is it really impossible to hide at home like this? What did you do to others?
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but want to go to work, but whether it is Xuantian Technology or Chengjutianxia, ​​it is no longer a good place for me.

Turning on the computer, I started to browse the web, read the recruitment requirements of several well-known game companies in the same industry, I went to revise my resume, and when the third sister knocked on the door, it was already dinner time.

But after opening the door, I didn't expect the third sister to tell me that Ji Tingkuan and his wife came to visit and brought a lot of gifts, apparently as an apology.

"President Ji didn't come."

The third sister reminded me, but I understood that with Ji Mingchuan's personality, he would not come to do such a thing with Ji Tingkuan and Pan Yue'e. An apology won't solve the problem.

But I changed my clothes and went down, but I didn't expect that in the living room downstairs, not only Ji Tingkuan and his wife were sitting, but also my mother, Han Qinan, and Han Dongcheng were also there.

Seeing me coming down, Ji Tingkuan, who looked like a strict father, didn't say a word, but there was an apology in his eyes, if you don't look carefully, you can't see clearly.

On the other hand, Pan Yuee greeted me enthusiastically:

"Nuan Nuan, are you feeling better today?"

I nodded and called Uncle Ji and Auntie Pan. Although I didn't lose my manners, I was definitely not hot. The handsome face of Han Qinan who was sitting next to me always made me think of Alexander. I couldn't see any emotion. Compared with him, my mother The expression on her face is not necessarily so friendly, this is compared with the past, my mother rarely gets angry.

Of course, I didn't ignore Han Dongcheng's eyes, which were as deep and bright as the stars in the sky. Without the indifference and sarcasm in the past, I couldn't help but want to take a look.

When I met Han Dongcheng's eyes, he nodded to me imperceptibly, as a greeting, and this kind of greeting has never happened every day and every time in the past.

My heart still couldn't help but feel a little warm.

Han Dongcheng doesn't hate me that much.

it is true.

"Your uncle has already taught Ming Chuan a hard lesson today. Ming Chuan seldom regrets so much. He knows he can't do you~"

Pan Yue'e wanted to say more sorry words, but her mother had already interrupted her.

"The food is ready, let's eat first."

The mother's attitude was very unfriendly, Ji Tingkuan and Pan Yuee's faces were a little embarrassed, but they quickly calmed down, Han Qinan still didn't have any attitude, just chatted with Ji Tingkuan for a few words about the guests at yesterday's banquet during the meal Although the arrangement was not hot enough, it wasn't particularly indifferent either.

After the meal, Ji Tingkuan and his wife lingered for a while before leaving after greetings. Han Qinan personally sent them to the door, but his mother didn't see them off, and went directly to his bedroom. Han Qinan just glanced at his mother without any blame or dissatisfaction .

Naturally, I didn't go to send it off, nor did I go upstairs immediately, but looked at the gift box over there and frowned slightly.

Did Ji Tingkuan think that giving me a car or a house would make me happy?
This is indeed a dream for many people, but I would rather be poor or die of illness than accept it, even though I understand how attractive wealth is in this world.

I turned around and left, and before I reached the stairs, I heard Han Dongcheng's casual reminder.

"If you don't want to do it in Chengjutianxia, ​​you can come back and do it. New projects need a professional plan."

I'm somewhat stunned, is this Han Dongcheng's retention?Is this asking me to go back to Xuantian Technology?
Does Han Dongcheng like this show his friendliness to me?

I couldn't help turning my head and saw the faint starlight in his eyes. Although I didn't have any anticipation that must be mine, but was business-like and calm, it still surprised me a little.

When I looked at him with a slight surprise on my face, Han Dongcheng stood up with a calm expression on his face, and he had already walked to my side, as if he was about to go upstairs, but he didn't leave immediately.

Apparently he was waiting for my answer.

Maybe I was too surprised, I forgot to give him my answer at the first time.

"Nuan Nuan, come to my study."

I don't know when, Han Qinan has come back, and I have not given Han Dongcheng an answer with my slightly opened mouth. prestige.

My heart trembled, Han Qinan's call to me naturally revolved around Ji Mingchuan's matter, it is impossible for us to simply let it go.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but have more persistence in my heart.

I saw Han Dongcheng's handsome face, frowned slightly, and went to Han Qinan's study immediately.

The decoration of Han Qinan's study is extremely elegant, not to mention the antique flavor, the collection of calligraphy and paintings can be seen from the eye, both grand and elegant, complementing the master's majesty and majesty, just like an emperor walking into his imperial study.

Facing Han Qinan like this, I couldn't help feeling a little stressed.

Although I mustered up enough courage for myself before coming in, when I watched Han Qinan walk to my desk without speaking, with his thin lips tightly pursed, and seemingly casually taking out documents from the drawer, I had an inexplicably ominous premonition .

"sit down."

Han Qinan smiled, and I sat down too. I didn't want to be abrupt in front of him. Even if it wasn't for myself, I wanted to leave a good impression on my mother.

However, I know that most of the time, I don't want to deal with such a man, and I don't care about his good impression. I even faintly dislike this man because of this pressure.

Seeing that I sat down as promised, Han Qinan sat down on the chair himself. A faint smile appeared on his serious face, and he seemed to ponder for a moment before speaking.

"Uncle may be lenient, but in Uncle's view, you are also my child, and you have the right to educate, help, or criticize, right?"

Han Qinan's brows and eyes look kind, but I feel that the more he is like this, the more troublesome things will be in the future. I don't like this kind of bureaucratic tone.

"What uncle said is that if uncle has anything to say, just say it."

My serious and direct tone made Han Qinan smile a little bit more, we can never be like father and daughter.

"About Ming Chuan's mistakes, I hope you can understand, don't deny a person at once."

Sure enough, it's just that I didn't expect it to be Han Qinan who said such words. I thought that one day it was my mother who said these words.

I still smiled, didn't speak, and pretended to listen carefully.

Han Qinan looked at me, but sighed inaudibly.

"Uncle knows that you are a sensible child, so he doesn't want to say anything more. It's just that the situation at that time was sudden. If you were an uncle, even a woman who doesn't love you should do the same."

Han Qinan changed the subject, spoke directly, and his face became more serious. When he looked at me, his eyes became more serious. What he said made sense. If it were me, maybe I would do the same.

If I were the latecomer who loved Ji Mingchuan deeply, maybe I would be angry, feel uncomfortable, and give Ji Mingchuan a bad look, but that's not the case now.

"Uncle, I don't have to be Ji Mingchuan."

Let me tell you the truth, even if he once got angry when he saw those photos, even if I might not be a good girl in his eyes, so what.

"I see."

I thought Han Qinan would be angry, but he said he understood, his eyes seemed to be able to see what I was thinking at a glance, which made it difficult for me to feel comfortable in front of him.

"Uncle can understand, I am very happy."

I said polite words and wanted to end this topic as soon as possible, but Han Qinan said indifferently: "Uncle agreed to invest in Ji Mingchuan's restaurant and hotel. If you are not satisfied with him, I can consider withdrawing the funds."

Han Qinan's face is still so indifferent, but what he said made me not know how to reply.

"Ji's family is rich, but not in this city. Ji Mingchuan is self-made, not that kind of flashy young man~"

I don't know if Han Qinan is continuing to persuade me, or is he explaining in a disguised form that Ji Mingchuan's interests in marrying me are the trend, and he wants me to refuse or agree?

"Uncle doesn't have to decide whether to invest because of my marriage with Ji Mingchuan. Uncle is a businessman. If uncle thinks it's worth investing, he will invest. If he doesn't, he will give up. I don't think I can control this."

I don't know where the courage came from. I have always tried my best to be well-behaved and sensible. I didn't want to collide with Han Qinan, but what he said now made me have to say so.

There was a slight flash of solemnity on Han Qinan's face, and he still smiled, but I don't think there was such a deep smile in his eyes.

"What Nuan Nuan said makes sense, uncle understands, you go out first."

"That disturbs uncle."

When Han Qinan said that, I was naturally relieved. When I got up and was about to leave, before I reached the door, I heard Han Qinan ask again: "Are you also planning to go back to the company in Dongcheng from Mingchuan?"

I was taken aback, I don't know why, I felt that Han Qinan's question was a little probing, when he turned to look at Han Qinan, he didn't stare at me, but seemed to ask casually, a bit like Han Dongcheng.

"Uncle, I want to go to another company for a try, and I shouldn't return to Xuantian for the time being."

After saying this, I saw the light flashing in Han Qinan's eyes, and when I finally looked at me in surprise, I nodded.

I opened the door and hurriedly left Han Qinan's study. I left as quickly as if there was a scourge behind me. When I returned to my bedroom, I made up my mind that I wanted to leave here.

I don't like the psychological pressure of being dependent on others. I don't want to have to do things to please Han Qinan for the sake of my mother.

So, when I was about to leave Han's house three days later, my mother changed her previous bad spirits, and she was surprised, and I left with obvious reluctance.

"Mom, I want to go out and relax. It happens that the weather is neither hot nor hot. I'm going on a trip."

When I say this, my mother somewhat understands my decision.

"Where are you going, how long will you be there, and when will you be back?"

My mother is more concerned about my travel, but not so concerned about my absence from the company for many days, or in her seriousness, she gradually thinks that the job is dispensable.

"It just so happened that a classmate took time off to join me, so it shouldn't be long."

After all, I still have to work, and I don't want to rely on my mother, nor the Han family. Seeing this, my mother didn't stop me, but instead said that it would be nice to go for a walk.

It seems that she is more dissatisfied with Ji Mingchuan than I am when it comes to treating Ji Mingchuan, maybe because she liked Ji Mingchuan too much before!So satisfied!
I only prepared a simple salute, and I was going to set off for Jiuzhaigou the next afternoon.

As for my job, I did not resign, and no one from the company called to urge me to go to work. I think Ji Mingchuan may have explained it.

Then it's not too late to resign when I come back.

With such a plan, I got up early the next day, ready to pack up and leave on time.

At the dining table in the morning, when I saw Han Dongcheng again, I was somewhat surprised. In my impression, Han Dongcheng didn't seem to go back to the Han residence very much. He didn't seem to like this family, mother and me. see him.

"I heard that Lingsha's mother is here, when will you invite Lingsha and Mrs. Huo to come and sit at home?"

When Han Qinan opened his mouth like this, Han Dongcheng just nodded and didn't say much, I can only eat as I should, and my mother, who seemed to have lost her anger, specially asked the third sister to make breakfast that I like to eat.

Seeing Han Qinan and Han Dongcheng get up, my mother asked me what I should pay attention to when traveling.

"Cold medicine, Yunnan Baiyao, umbrellas, are you ready?"

In fact, my mother loves me very much, and she used to be very good at taking care of me, so even if she helped me fall in love with Ji Mingchuan wishfully, it was for my own good.

"I've brought them all. I'll be back in three to five days. Mom, don't worry. I'll take care of myself."

When I said that, Han Dongcheng was almost at the door, I don't think he would care where I went, as for Han Qinan, he had already given some instructions to the housekeeper and was about to get in the car.

In the past few days, Ji Mingchuan has never called me again, let alone any contact. I think he may think that no amount of apology makes any sense. Dream, maybe even that little bit of goodwill has long since disappeared.

I was ready to go after dinner. After all, it takes a lot of time to go to the airport. My mother told me to be careful on the road, but I didn’t plan to ask the driver to take me to the airport. I don’t know if she forgot or felt troublesome. Ask the driver of the Han family to see me off.

Only when I saw the familiar car on the boulevard when I got to the gate, I realized why my mother didn't ask the driver to see me off.

Ji Mingchuan is not the kind of person who begs for nothing, but he is a very calculating person.

The car wasn't parked at the nearest place to Han's house. If he wasn't familiar with it and didn't pay attention, he might not have recognized the car at all, and he wouldn't have known that he was waiting there.

Mom, I still like Ji Mingchuan.

Although the window didn't fall, I think we saw each other.

Ji Mingchuan would not say sorry in a sincere and trembling manner, nor would he give any gifts to curry favor, but he would pick me up here as soon as possible.

I saw Ji Mingchuan's handsome face when the car window was slowly sliding down. He didn't have the spring-like smile in the past, but only slightly frowned, but there was a gleam of tenderness and anticipation in his eyes.

I stopped in my tracks, not wanting to accept the light in Ji Mingchuan's eyes.

A car seemed to be silently parked beside him, the window was half down, and a handsome face showed no expression.

"Where are you going? I'll give you a ride."
