Chapter 15

Can you give me a little confidence?Let me believe that all the ups and downs are for the postgraduate entrance examination, to let each other know that after experiencing everything, I still hope to have this person in my life, to have this person's company, let me believe that love makes marriage and marriage makes happiness?
Without an appointment, the two men went straight into the headquarters building of the Lianshi Group. The secretary opened the door for them. Lian Yun sat behind the desk. The office was very large. Because it was evening and the sun was receding, his expression could not be seen clearly in the shadows.

After receiving the envelope, Lian Yun spread out the photos inside on the large desk. The photos are not very clear. It seems that they were taken in different countries, some of which were still at the airport. There is only one focal person in each photo, which is Yin Ru.

Looking at them one by one, he never made a sound, but the frown got deeper and deeper. The last one was taken recently. She was shopping in a shopping mall, wearing loose clothes, but her figure had become obvious, no matter how blurred it was. It can be seen that this woman is at least seven or eight months pregnant.

Very angry and sad, he frowned and tried to suppress the complex emotions surging in his heart, but it was obviously unsuccessful.

The woman in the photo is still his wife, and the child in her womb is half his, but what did this woman do?
A person is wandering around the world leisurely with a child in his arms, without saying hello, and what's even more hateful is that he doesn't even let him know that he has a child.

Does she really think that a man is just a sperm?

"Is she still flying?"

Seeing that his expression was wrong, the two men glanced at each other, and spoke cautiously, "No, the last photo was taken in the United States. Miss Yin is now expecting to give birth in Los Angeles. It seems that she will not travel again in the near future. Plan. Mr. Lian, what else do you need next?"

need?At this time, do we still need them to go out?Is he a living person dead?

After pressing the phone, the secretary's voice rang immediately, dutifully.

"Book me a ticket to Los Angeles, the fastest one."

Holding the address in his hand, Lian Yun went straight to that place as soon as he got off the plane.

The weather in Los Angeles was hot, and although the air conditioner was turned on in the car, he was still sweating when he arrived in that suburban town.

I don't want to admit that it's because I'm nervous, but I can't find any other reasons.

Yin Ru lives in an independent house with two floors. There is a lawn in front of the door, where flowers and plants are planted, and it looks lush in summer.

After getting off the bus, he stood on the opposite side of the street and hesitated. He had already made up his mind to rush in, grabbed her and asked her why she ran away, but when he finally arrived here after flying for more than ten hours, he was suddenly timid and dared not step forward.

It was evening, dinner time, and the residents of the small town were supposed to be enjoying family fun around the table at home, but he was standing alone at the end of the road, his wife and unborn child were just a few steps away, but he was looking at the house Don't dare to take this first step.

Staring at the door, perhaps because his thoughts were too strong, it didn't take long for the door to open.

It was indeed Yin Ru who came out, wearing loose maternity clothes, talking on the phone while walking, with a smiling expression on her face, very feminine.

In fact, when he saw Yin Ru for the first time, what Lian Yun thought in his heart was—is this still a woman?
How long ago it happened, but when I think about it now, I still remember it vividly, as if it was yesterday.

At that time, the group had already started preparing for an overseas listing within two years. He tried his best to invite an internationally renowned consulting and management company to reorganize the company structure. The directors of the family members were here and did not turn their faces on the spot, but it was different after returning home, and the family meeting was in full swing.

At that time, he had been in power for more than a year, and the company had also made a lot of money during this time, and he was determined to put an end to the company's old habits, and in the end he suppressed all objections.

Money is easy to do, so soon McKinsey sent someone to approach him. After the initial communication, the Chinese person in charge gave him advice with a foreign accent. His English is actually ok. But it was really only for a while. Although I was studying finance, all the lecturers were Chinese. I was only in my early twenties at that time. I was so angry that I bought a plane ticket and went back to China.

When I got home, I was still arguing with my stunned parents, "What kind of elite schools are those? It's a scam. It's better to buy a diploma from an online university."

Their family started to do business from their ancestors, and they were not very educated at first, but when the third generation realized the importance of knowledge, all uncles and uncles sent their children to study. If they are rich, they can go to any country, and the other cousins ​​are happy to enjoy it. Felt like a waste of time.

Chinese people's money is easy to cheat, isn't it?He was the one who lied to them if he wanted to deceive them, so it's not the turn of those fake foreign devils.

Later, I finished my studies in China. The business school got to know a large number of domestic upstarts with similar backgrounds. Many of my peers who emerged from the same generation were called brothers and sisters, so I felt that it was not a waste of time.

But because of this, no matter how much his image is, he is just a local turtle, and he has never been given the title of returning elite and overseas scholar.

Anyway, he doesn't care too much. Now when he hears this guy talking to him in English every now and then, he gets annoyed, so he directly asks, "No problem, as long as the person who comes here can speak fluent Chinese, that's fine. It’s not been a year or two since your company has been in Asia, so there’s no one who speaks Chinese?”

The opponent made a black line on the spot, and the one who took over the project later was said to be the best working group in Asia, so he was right.

It was winter, and it was the first time he met with the working group. He had arranged it on the schedule, but there was a temporary situation at a certain construction site, and the driver was still a long time late.

The atmosphere in the conference room was a bit strange, and my secretary was already quite embarrassed. Seeing him was like seeing a savior, and she ran over to introduce, "Mr. Lian, it's good that you are here, this Miss Yin must first start making plans with data. Discussion, everyone is waiting—”

"Mr. Lian, hello." There was a voice, it was a female voice, and the enunciation was very short and powerful.Someone stood up on the right hand side at the end of the conference table, wearing a white knight-style shirt with cuffs pulled up, short hair, and slightly longer bangs neatly brushed behind the ears.

"Miss Yin?"

"It's me, Mr. Lian. I asked the managers of all departments present to start the discussion according to the agreed meeting time. An enterprise needs a strict concept of time. They can't start without your presence. Is this still a patriarchal system?"

Uh--

Except for the people she brought, everyone has black lines, and Yin Ru's subordinates have long been accustomed to the group leader's demeanor, doing what they should do, keeping their heads down and continuing to work, no one is surprised.

He has never liked strong women. All the women in the family are traditional and Chinese, that is to say, three obediences and four virtues, and the husband is heaven.

Just like his mother, who has been used to being virtuous and virtuous all her life. Her husband has been doing business abroad for many years, and she manages the rear at home. She never participates in any business matters and speaks in a negotiable tone.

But this Yin Ru completely overturned his usual perception of women. Although this woman was born in China, she went overseas with her parents when she was very young. She lived in several countries during her growth, both developed and undeveloped.

I left home to study alone after high school, got a scholarship, and I am used to being outstanding, and I am employed by the best company. I have a successful career at a young age, and I speak with authority. Everything I do is a breeze, and I am extremely capable. .

After the first contact, she formally entered the group with her own working group and began to work. The group has many branches and is distributed all over the country. The head office discussed with him, and the efficiency was unexpectedly high, and the plan was incisive, and it really hit the fatal point of his family business, which made him immediately look at this woman with admiration.

It's okay to look at her with admiration, work is work, personal opinion is personal opinion, and he still has no gender identity for her.

Such a woman cannot be married, right?When I had dinner with my managers in private, I heard them say that.

The official plan was brought to the president's office by her to discuss with him alone. It was almost Chinese New Year at that time, and the secretary reminded him of this time period more than once the day before. It seemed that her reputation was already well-known here. All have to obey the rules.

I won't be late again. The last time I was late, I gave her a big blow on the spot. If there is another problem this time, it is estimated that the result of his late appearance will be an empty room.

Her famous quote, everyone's time is precious, don't waste it twice.

But she was the one who was late that day. He waited in the office for 10 minutes before Yin Ru appeared in a hurry, still wearing a coat, and apologized when he entered the door, "I'm sorry, Mr. Lian, I'm late."

His hometown is in Henan, and it is cold in winter, but it is very dry. Shanghai is different. It is cloudy and humid at this time of year, and the wind is mixed with a biting smell. She is not a potted woman who stays in the office all day. With a chill all over his body, it seemed that he had just rushed over from some unusually cold place.

If it was someone else, he would laugh at most, and since he is not an employee of his own, there is no need to be too upfront, and maybe even make fun of it.

But she had a serious face, which forced him to look serious, feeling a little upset, and said bluntly, "It's okay, this time is specially reserved for Ms. Yin, but I didn't expect that Ms. Yin, who didn't want to waste double, is double waste." standard."

She was taking off her coat. She was wearing a double-breasted black military uniform, and even the scarf was made of pure black cashmere, which made her face as frosty as snow. When she heard this, she looked up straight. He had already stood up, because of his height. Because of this, she could only look directly into his eyes by tilting her head slightly, her slightly pointed chin raised slightly, and she started coughing before she could speak.

She was also different when she coughed. She covered her face with both hands, her closed fingertips were at the tip of her nose, most of her face was in her palms, but her exposed eyes were still staring at him.

Although Yin Ru's style is international, her facial features are traditional Chinese. Her eyes are especially beautiful, with slender phoenix eyes and beautiful lines. Looking at her from a close distance, the tails of her eyes are slightly upturned, which is surprisingly charming.

Seeing her like this, he was suddenly a little dazed, and wanted to say nothing, so he froze for a moment.

Just when the phone on the table rang, he turned his back to answer it, temporarily avoiding her eyes.The secretary's voice was cautious, "Mr. Lian, just now I went downstairs to the sales department to deliver the documents, and I forgot to tell you that Miss Yin called before and said that she would be 10 minutes late. There is a problem with the data reported to her by the Minhang branch. Go check it out and talk to you."

The Minhang branch is the most remote point in Shanghai. Because the land is cheap, it has not been properly managed. It sounds good as a branch, but in fact it is just a circle of land to set up an office. There was a section that was not open to traffic at all and had to be walked. Even he himself had only been there once. In such a cold day, she actually ran by herself——and then turned around to look at her feet. Sure enough, there were spots on a pair of calfskin boots. mud spots.

As soon as the cough passed, Yin Ru finally put down her hands, her cheeks blushed a little, her voice was still calm, but a little hoarse, and the rustling was much different from usual, "Mr. Lian, I can explain."

"I'm sorry it was my misunderstanding," he apologized first, "Xiao Li said just now that you had called her, but she didn't inform me that you went to Minhang."

"Oh", she didn't say any more, she took off her coat and put it on the sofa in his office, then turned to him and asked, "Then shall we start now?"

He felt a little sorry, so when he was listening to her explain the plan, Lian Yun changed his previously secretly critical attitude towards this woman's actions and listened very carefully.

As expected of the No. [-] working group in Asia, the plan was really exciting, but after hearing that, he frowned, "Miss Yin, if it is implemented like this, I think there will be a big rebound."

She was sitting opposite him, and suddenly smiled slightly when she saw his expression, "I know Mr. Lian's concerns."

"Oh?" This time it was his turn to look directly at the past.

"The advantage of a family business is that it has a strong core and few differences in interests. But for hundreds of years, there are very few examples of family businesses that can truly stand in the world without defeat. Do you know?"

"Because it protects the core interests too much and refuses new blood to enter the management, it is becoming more and more stale. This is why I invited you to come."

"Very good," Yin Ru stood up and put his hands on the countertop, "This is the fatal part of Jiatianxia. Didn't you see that when I first came to this company, as long as you were not there, all the management staff would not be there?" Dare to make any reaction, and only start to move when you come?"

Recalling that he was still a bit black that day, without waiting for him to answer, Yin Ru went straight on, "Mr. Lian, can you make sure that you can show up in time at any time? Can you make sure that you can handle every detail by yourself? If you do If you don’t, you have to use the system instead of individuals to support the company, and it is inevitable that some of the original core layer, that is, the original privileges of your immediate family members will be damaged.”

"I understand." How could he not be clear about this, "But we must pay attention to the method and not be in such a hurry."

"Don't worry." She smiled again, as if talking about the weather, "There are many similar cases. European family businesses have a century-old foundation, but in the end, they can't accept it smoothly. As long as people realize that if they don't change, they will die, and everything can be compromised."

It was getting dark early in winter. When she said this, the sun was already setting outside the French window behind him. The light was not strong. It was orange-red and hit her face over his shoulder. How could such a small face Being able to give such a great sense of presence made him feel strange.

But after she finished speaking, she coughed again, still clasping her hands together on her face, this time her eyes did not look at him, and she lowered her eyes, only her eyelashes trembling.

Without waiting for his brain to think, he had already blurted out, "When did you start coughing? Should I call the doctor to have a look? It's been too cold recently, be careful of catching a cold."

The tone seemed to be that the two had known each other for many years, and the cough stopped. She looked over in surprise, her eyes full of question marks, as if she was meeting him for the first time.

Of course, Yin Ru flatly refused this proposal.

She knows what this man thinks of her, just as she has always known what other men in her life think of her—is she or is she a woman?Even if it is, such a woman cannot be married.

It doesn't matter if you don't get married, and she doesn't care.

The woman she admires is Rice. Someone gave her a broom to get out of the Secretary of State's office. She put it in a conspicuous place to remind herself to keep working hard.

A man can occupy a high position and dominate the situation, and there are many examples around her of women who do not give up to men. In what age, it is the kind of virtue that women are less talented.

Over the years, there have been some cases of life and death in various countries, but most of the men disappeared automatically after dating her a few times, and the world evaporated quickly.

She knows why, which man can stand a female partner who refutes his problematic thinking at every turn, and there is a lawyer who is more straightforward, and finally fights back angrily when he is speechless in front of her for the third time, "Miss Yin , have you seen those old ladies who end up holding a cat and dying alone? Even in the new era, women must have the virtues of gentleness, humility and tolerance, you can't be so proud for a lifetime."

At that time, the two of them were eating in a high-end restaurant, and she stood up on the spot with a cold expression, "Sir, have you ever seen those lonely old men who didn't even have a dog in the end? Men in the new era must have the self-consciousness of being gentle, humble, and patient. Otherwise you have great potential for a role like that."

When I got home, I felt naive and wasted too much time with that kind of person, but I felt very happy, and I lost the interest in dating messy men in the future.

And for a man like Lian Yun, when she met him for the first time, she stamped him in her heart—a representative of pure Chinese traditional machismo and male supremacy, she was at odds with her everywhere.

It was this wrong man. Since that day, more and more attention has been paid to her, and more and more unbelievable proposals have been made. Later, even his own team members knew that President Lian could do anything to them. The leader of Wonder Woman's team is interesting, which makes her feel overwhelmed.

Then I felt a little bit of resentment in my heart, and became more and more indifferent to him, and I would not contact him if I could not contact him. Except for necessary work contacts, I usually even saved the most basic politeness.

Lian Yun didn't care at all about her indifference.

He is the kind of hard-liner with a straightforward personality that is rare among Chinese people. Otherwise, he would not have decided to return to China directly after reading halfway through the book, without saying hello to his family.

Without thinking too much, he felt that Yin Ru was worth chasing.

She is indeed not a traditional gentle woman, and she is far from his family's usual standards for women, but when they are with her, they can communicate with each other no matter what they say, and some of them usually talk to their uncles. Even where it doesn't make sense, she can often hit the nail on the head.

Such a woman is a treasure, a rare treasure.

Anyway, her project will take at least half a year, and he has plenty of time.

They finally had their first date two weeks later.It's a date, but it's actually more like an opportunity he got by using all kinds of tricks and tricks.

She lives in a hotel-style apartment provided by the group. Of course he knows the address. It is almost the Lunar New Year, and the members of the working group she leads are almost all foreigners. Most of them take this opportunity to travel in China, or return to their own country to meet Family vacation.

But as far as he knows, Team Leader Yin will not leave Shanghai this time.

This is the news his secretary got from one of her team members. As for how his secretary did it, and how did this girl go on a trip with that foreigner during the Chinese New Year, he only cared about the result, not the process.

He also informed the security guard under the apartment and asked them to call him as soon as Ms. Yin arrived at the hotel.

He called her when he drove downstairs to the apartment at the right time, and the voice on the other end was surprised, "What's the matter?"

"There is a plan I want to discuss with you, and I want to confirm it before the holiday. Is it convenient now?"

The other side pondered, and then she said, "Now is my private time."

"It's urgent, so it's considered overtime. Extras can be paid by the hour." Knowing that she was serious about work, he opened his eyes and told nonsense.

She still hesitated, but finally agreed.

The information given by the security guard was wrong. It turned out that she was not at home, but was eating alone in a Japanese-style izakaya on the small road next to the apartment.

He was really alone, the izakaya was small, and there were not many customers in winter, when he entered the door, he immediately saw Yin Ru sitting in the corner.

She was drinking, and in front of her was a black fishtail pot, a stinging pot with rich flowers, the salmon was crimson and plump, the sea bream was oily white, the tip of the arctic clam was dark red, the plump and crystal fish roe was scattered around, and the shredded radish was finely chopped Long coiled, snow-white layer.

Yin Ru was very generous. When he saw him, he beckoned to the proprietress to add wine and wine glasses. Then he took the document and looked at it carefully with his head propped up. Then he pushed the sashimi platter in front of him, "Try it, this one is good."

It was simply a document he grabbed temporarily, there was nothing worth looking at, but she still had a serious face, the bangs that brushed behind her ears loosened, and slanted across her eyes, he was sitting opposite, pouring wine with one hand, It was her drooping forehead that her eyes looked at.The pair of phoenix eyes were barely separated by the hair for a moment, and she conveniently landed on the ground with her fingers together and swept them away.

He was stunned, with such a serious expression - any woman in his life was incomparable to her at work.

I was so engrossed that I forgot what I was still doing in my hand. The transparent wine was filled up in a blink of an eye, overflowing along the edge of the glass, and the aroma of the wine was overflowing.

When her hand was cold, it was her snow-white fingers again, still keeping them close together, "Be careful."

It was probably because his dazed look was so funny, and then she laughed, her teeth were like braided shells, shining brightly.

There were also men who stared at her in a daze, but this was definitely the first time when she was concentrating on her work. Realizing this, Yin Ru suddenly felt very happy.

Then the atmosphere relaxed and they chatted a few words about the plan, the documents were pushed aside, and the two started chatting.

He asked why he didn't go home during the Chinese New Year. She smiled slightly, her dexterous fingers flying in the air, "Mom and Dad are on their nth honeymoon trip in Africa. It's a filial daughter's duty not to be a light bulb."

"You can travel by yourself."

"I've been on too many planes, and sometimes I feel nauseous when I see the airport. It's good to rest quietly for a few days." After two small bottles of sake, Yin Ru's words gradually increased.

It was a small white porcelain wine bottle and wine glass. Her fingers were delicate and white, and she gently held the rim of the glass with her fingertips, like doll props, very cute and beautiful.

For a moment, Lian Yun felt that he fell in love with her. Yin Ru is cute, but he actually thinks Yin Ru is cute. Can other men in this world understand that?

"I will return to Henan in two days. During the Chinese New Year, everyone will fly back to get together, an old family tradition."

"Really? It must be very lively. Are there any dragon and lion dances?" She smiled. She had heard about the traditions of the Lian family, and she was a little curious.

"It's very traditional, and there are ancestor worship ceremonies in the village. Do you want to go and see it together?" This sentence came out again, and her reaction was the same as last time. She looked over in surprise, her eyes full of question marks, as if It was the first time I met him.

Naturally, Yin Ru did not agree with his whim, and went home with him for the New Year.

Thinking about it later, fortunately she didn't go, there were only a group of women and children in my hometown, and the men basically only went back once a year, and there was a character he was about to forget—Chen Li.

Because after taking over the position of power of the group, countless things are involved, and he has not been home for the New Year for two years. In his impression, Chen Li is the quiet girl who goes in and out with her mother all day long. Few parents who share the same language came forward to talk to him and asked him to marry Chen Li as soon as possible.

What is this?Is getting married so easy?Just kidding.

But his parents looked serious, not joking at all, and he couldn't make sense of what he said, and then he couldn't help it, and flew back to Shanghai before he reached the third grade in a fit of anger.

For Chinese New Year, the company is empty, no one is there, his residence in Shanghai is big and empty, even the workers have gone back for the New Year, and there is no one there.

Now in this city, the only thing he can think of is Yin Ru.

I called her, but I didn't expect that she was really still in Shanghai and didn't go anywhere.

I drove directly to the apartment where she was temporarily staying. It was in the morning, and the fireworks and firecrackers from last night were scattered everywhere. She was also a little surprised by his visit, but she was embarrassed to see a lot of New Year's goods in his hand. Do not invite him in.

The apartment is not very big, but the decoration is exquisite and very comfortable. She is dressed in a very homely way at home. It is completely opposite to all the smart looks she has seen before. The fabric is soft, the toga has large sleeves, and the light blue is placed on the table. Looking down, it is still the most traditional southern Chinese New Year snack, a bowl of glutinous rice balls.

When the guests came, she was too embarrassed to eat alone, so she asked casually, "Have you eaten? There is still some in the kitchen, do you want it?"

Of course, he nodded very quickly.

After taking the first bite, I was stunned. The glutinous rice is delicate, and the inside is authentic shepherd's purse meat. Each of them is rounded, and there are sharp little pickles on the top. It is completely handmade. Frozen food is worse by the day.

Still can't believe it, he carefully confirmed with the bowl in his hand, "You asked auntie to do it?"

"Auntie? There is no auntie at this time, this place is empty." She was also eating, and when she heard this, she raised her head and gave the answer directly, "I made it myself."

This time he was really stunned, and he looked at her completely differently.

Who says Yin Ru doesn't look like a woman, she wrote the word woman repeatedly from the beginning to the end, and the appraisal is complete.

There were firecrackers outside, noisy, but he only felt joyful, and the joyous sound seemed to come from his heart, and he was so happy that he died.

Looking at her while eating, the more I watched, the more excited I was, and then I blurted out, "Are you okay today? Why don't we go out together later? Some cities around Shanghai have nice scenery, why don't we go to Suzhou or Hangzhou?"

Hearing this sentence, Yin Ru, who was originally spooning glutinous rice balls with her head down, raised her head and looked over, her eyes were very indifferent, and her voice was the same, "President Lian, with all due respect, are you going to pursue me?"

Speaking so directly, Lian Yun was speechless on the spot without any experience with such a woman.

For Yin Ru, whether there is a man in her life has no special meaning to her.

So after Lian Yun proposed the invitation so bluntly, she didn't feel flattered or moved, but was a little surprised.

Why does Lian Yun, who seems to be a traditional male chauvinist, take a fancy to himself?She was obviously not the type he would like, or fit him.Two people have nothing in common, and their thinking is even more distant, how is it possible?
However, this proposal around Shanghai is a good idea. She had originally planned to take advantage of this rare holiday to go shopping, but even if she wanted to go, she could drive by herself, so why would she need him to accompany her?

People really can't be too iron-toothed, if they are too iron-toothed, they will bite the iron plate.

The next day, Yin Ru drove her rented car on the road to the highway in a good mood. She always drove carefully and kept the speed limit as high as possible, but she heard a muffled sound halfway, and then the whole body of the car turned to one side. Tilting, and there happened to be a car on the side trying to cut into the lane in front of her. Both parties were frightened and slammed on the brakes to steer, but the fronts of the cars still rubbed against each other.

When I got out of the car, I found out that it was an accidental tire blowout. Several men also got out of the other car, speaking with a loud local accent. Someone called and someone rushed over to look at the front of the car. The scene was very lively.

Yin Ru didn't understand a word, so she dialed 110 directly.She still has common sense about emergency calls in various countries, and she can't be good at seeing this posture. It is more practical to call the police.

Unexpectedly, the police just came. After watching the scene, they answered a few calls, and immediately wanted to tow the car away, and asked everyone to go to the police station to solve the problem, even her.

It was unbelievable, but she went anyway. When she got there, she felt something was wrong. The men in the car were arrogant and kept talking loudly to the policemen. She couldn't understand the dialect, so she asked a middle-aged man next to her, The person was silent at first, and then he walked to the corner and lowered his voice and said to her, "Little girl, these people have something to do with them, you will definitely suffer later, you should quickly find someone to help, you can't handle them alone. "

What's the meaning?relation?This is not the first time she has worked in China, she is no stranger to this term, and she feels something is wrong when she sees this situation, but she is just a passer-by in this city, and it is Chinese New Year, who should she turn to at this time?

Finally, she finally realized that there was indeed someone she could find, Lian Yun, the president of Lian Shi.

Lian Yun arrived almost immediately, and only made a few phone calls on the way. When he arrived, the faces of the police officers who received him had turned 180 degrees. Hot tea is served in a well-heated lounge.Seeing him raise his hand to say hello, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he said thank you softly.

He brought people over, and immediately took over all follow-up matters, so happy that he no longer had to worry about trivial matters, Yin Ru followed him and left the police station.

Later, he went to Suzhou with him. He had just received his enthusiastic help, and Yin Ru was too embarrassed to show him too much face. Sitting in the carriage, he wanted to say a few words. The common topic between the two of them was nothing more than business and finance. Later, when she got up, she arrived at her destination in a blink of an eye. Even she felt that the distance was extremely short.

Suzhou is a small and elegant city. Its gardens are exquisite and beautiful. The rockery is exquisite. When you move around and change the scenery, you will lose your way in a blink of an eye.

The two went to Guanqian Street to find the most traditional Soviet-style restaurant for dinner. They felt relaxed and had delicious food and beautiful scenery. At the end of the day, the two people's familiarity with each other took a big step forward.

On the way back, the expressway was flat and straight, with monotonous scenery on both sides, and she was tired. At first, Yin Ru wanted to stay awake, but after the car passed the first tollbooth, she finally couldn’t hold on, and fell asleep in a daze.

When I woke up, I found that the car had already arrived in Shanghai, and was driving on the Yan'an Road elevated road. At night, the neon lights first came on, and the two sides of the elevated road looked like a sea of ​​lights, a scene of prosperity and prosperity.

Tilting his head, Lian Yun was looking in her direction, his eyes intersected, his eyes lit up slightly, and then he smiled at her, "Yin Ru, I really want to pursue you, is that okay?"

This question was raised by her, last time he was speechless, and finally heard the answer after dozens of hours before waking up, and it was the first time a man said such a thing to her so bluntly, Yin Ru stretched her waist Halfway through the action, she froze there, and this time it was her turn to be speechless.

Maybe it's because the New Year's atmosphere is so good, maybe it's because the two of them are alone in this city, maybe it's because winter is coming to an end, spring is coming, and the hormones of both males and females are starting to move around. In short, it's inexplicable and weird. After a short trip, Yin Ru began to no longer reject this man's frequent appearance, and even occasionally felt that he enjoyed this man's company, and as for the pursuit, he acquiesced.

Afterwards they were really together, and everything happened naturally, obviously they were different, and obviously they had nothing in common worth mentioning, but it was a matter of course, and both of them enjoyed it.

Lian Yun felt that there was no other woman more suitable for him than Yin Ru, and the longer he got along, the more he felt that he had made the right choice.

She is beautiful and intelligent, speaks with substance, has rich experience in the company's business philosophy, and has unique insights, which is much higher than all the women he has come into contact with.He was originally an ambitious man, and with her by his side, his blood boiled even more. Countless ideas emerged one after another. Sometimes when he got excited, he would wake her up in the middle of the night and talk non-stop.

Yin Ru's emotional expression is not so direct, but when the two get along, they are like drinking water, knowing how warm and cold they are. She is not a little girl in love for the first time, and she knows how she feels.

She began to enjoy the time with him, she smiled when she thought of him, and kept her mobile phone close to her body at all times. She didn't know why there were so many things to talk about every day.

Both of them are very busy, but they will miss her if they are separated for a long time. Occasionally, if she stays in a certain place for too long, he will try to find time to fly to see her, and it is good to stay for one night to talk about the hard work of missing her.

Even if we stay in the same city, most of the time we meet in the middle of the night, he is so energetic, sometimes he really pesters her to no avail, and no matter how much work he has at hand, he is left behind. maximum.

The most important thing is that she feels happy. The beautiful fragments in her memory are always long and endless, so that every time she thinks back, she will smile at the corners of her mouth and have soft eyes.

After a long, long time, she was questioned, did she regret it?

No, she doesn't regret it, because she was happy.

Love is a strange thing. When you are in love, you want to be one with each other. If you have a little time, you want to be with each other. Even if you are doing your own thing, it is good to be able to see the shadow of that person in your eyes.

But after all, two people are different independent individuals, and they have something in common. They spend most of their time working in their lives, and the rest can only stand aside.

No matter how large and complex Lian Yun's group was, and no matter how many things to do, this project was still completed within a year.

The work plan of Yin Ru's group has been scheduled for three years, and the next project will be in South Korea.

Originally, they didn't spend much time together, but at least they were in the same country, but after her new project started, both of them gradually realized that it would be difficult to maintain this situation.

Who can stand that the relationship between lovers cannot be guaranteed even once a month?Even occasionally, we can only meet each other at the airport in a hurry between flying back and forth.

In the end, it was also because of the airport that they collapsed at the same time. It was a rare two-day holiday. She took an early flight from South Korea to Shanghai. When she got off the plane, she saw five or six missed calls. There were calls from Lian Yun and calls from her own work group. , just about to dial back, the phone rang again, and her assistant spoke in an urgent voice, "Team leader, there is a big problem here in Seoul, can you come back right away?"

After asking a few questions, it turned out to be an emergency. She was annoyed, and called Lian Yun again. Lian Yun's voice was also urgent, "Xiao Ru, are you here yet?"

"Just got off the plane, but there is something wrong with South Korea, I may have to catch the next plane back, how about you?"

"I just received a call from the Anhui branch in the morning. The labor dispute is a bit serious. I have to rush there immediately. I'm also at the airport now."

so suddenly?A little disappointed, but forget it, the two of them lived like this, she can understand, "What time is your plane? Do you still have time? I'll come to see you before boarding the plane?"

There was a noisy background on the other side, he seemed to be sighing, and a little irritated, "I'm at Hongqiao Airport, and I'm leaving in two hours, so I'm too late."

Hongqiao Airport—she almost forgot that Shanghai has two airports, and they are located at the two poles of the city, with a distance of hundreds of thousands of miles.

As a matter of fact, in normal times, she would never be unable to accept it, but near the end of the year, when he and she are both the busiest, this time they have not seen each other for almost two months, and she She had been busy without sleep for a whole week during her [-]-day vacation, and suddenly felt very bad, so she hung up the phone directly.

After hanging up, she ran out to call a car and headed straight to Hongqiao Airport. After the customer got in the car, his face was not good. The driver didn't dare to say anything along the way. He drove the car fast at her request. God also helped. The road was smooth that day. , It took just over an hour to arrive at Hongqiao Airport, which is really fast.

At this time, I called Lian Yun again, but there was a busy signal on the other end, and I waited a while to dial again, but it was a busy signal again.

What are you doing? You keep making phone calls when you have nothing to do. Yin Ru stares at the screen a little out of breath, her eyes are fierce.

When I tried to make a call again, the phone rang, and when I answered it, I immediately said, "Why are you, you keep calling at the airport, and I can't even get in."

"Where are you?" Instead of answering the question, she asked directly.

"At Pudong Airport, where are you?" He spoke louder, listening carefully, and also a little out of breath.

Straight away, the lobby of Hongqiao Airport is always bustling with people. Yin Ru stood in front of a group of elderly tour groups wearing little yellow hats, holding the phone, lowered her head, and fell silent.

The background sound was too loud, and Lian Yun didn't even realize that her mood was starting to turn wrong. He kept asking loudly, "Which area are you in? Damn, why is this airport so big? It doesn't even consider the limits of human beings."

The limit of human beings, she has indeed reached the limit, she tried twice before she could speak, Yin Ru's eyes were blushing, "Don't look for it, I'm not at Pudong Airport."

"Not at Pudong Airport?" He was stunned at the other end, "Didn't you say that you are going to take the next flight back to Korea? I checked on the way, and the next flight will take off in three or four hours. You are not here." Where did the airport go?"

"I'm at the airport, at Hongqiao Airport." Breaking down, she yelled back.

After shouting, there was no sound from both sides, and it took a long time for Lian Yun to open his mouth, "Don't move, just wait for me there, okay?"

It's okay, she's exhausted, how can she have the strength to run again?

When Lian Yun arrived at Hongqiao Airport again, she saw her sitting alone in the waiting hall, surrounded by tour groups and tourists chatting happily, with luggage piled up everywhere, and she hugged her Sitting at the end of the row of chairs with a small bag, the contrast is sharp, making her look even more pitiful.

Running over to stand in front of her, Yin Ru had lowered her eyes, but now she saw him, raised her head and stood up, pursed her lips but did not speak.

At the first glance, he found that she had cried, her eyes were still a little red, and there were faint bloodshots around her pitch-black pupils, which strangled his heart with severe pain.

In an instant, the noisy waiting hall became a vacuum, and all the images and voices around her became blurred and distant. She was the only one left in his eyes. He stretched out his arms and hugged her. For the first time in his life, Lian Yun used a pleading tone, "Small as , stop, let's get married."

When did that happen?It's too far away, but it will always be so clear in his memory. She opened her eyes wide in his arms, then nodded with tears, and he felt that everything in his world was complete and he didn't need more.

and then?Then she got married despite the family's opposition, then she made countless concessions for this marriage, and then she finally stayed by his side.

But all these happiness have not had time to feel, it seems to have changed, she is like a trapped animal at home, but he is getting more and more busy, time goes by, the two people can't help but want to kiss and caress each other from meeting to face to face. can be said.

Staring blankly at her standing in front of the house, Lian Yun felt more and more difficult to breathe.

After leaving him, she seemed to be doing well. Although she was already in the late pregnancy, she looked refreshed, her complexion was radiant, and she had a beautiful smile.

But he was not having a good time, getting rid of the past, she walked away easily, she would always be the perfect woman with wings, and he was left alone in the same place without saying a word, as if he was leaving behind only the insignificant things in life a passerby.

The feeling of separation was too painful. After they got married, they had quarrels and cold wars. She made sacrifices and he made concessions. When she returned to work again, he thought it would be a new beginning. Get rid of the painful pains, and find a way to get along that satisfies each other.

But it turned out that none of this would work, and she finally left him with no intention of turning back.

But he misses his wife, he still loves her and doesn't want to be separated from her.At the beginning, he hoped that she would realize the same pain, but as time went by, he finally realized how firm Yin Ru's decision was, so determined that in the end he could only ask professionals to find her whereabouts.

Yin Ru on the other end had finished talking on the phone, when she raised her head, she saw him for the first time, her expression was disbelief at first, then she stared at him again, her beautiful phoenix eyes didn't blink.

She thought she was dreaming.

She hasn't seen this man for a long time. In fact, there were times when they were separated for a long time in the past, especially before marriage. At that time, the two of them wished they could have 48 hours a day. She was interrupted by others at the end of the sentence. She was the same as him, and had to put down the phone to deal with it first. In just a few words, the coming and going were nothing more than, "How are you? I miss you." It took a whole day to finish.

As she cried at the airport later, he pleaded in her ear, "Stop it, let's get married."

Both parents expressed opposition, but her family has a democratic style. Although she did not agree with her decision, she did not firmly stop it.

But the Lian family is completely different.

Lian Yun's ancestral home is in Henan, and his family is huge. He is a representative of traditional businessmen, and he is also the leader of the group. Such a hastily decided marriage immediately caused an uproar in the family.

The Lian-style family has a big business, and the ancestors have always held the traditional principle of Chinese farmers that the fertilizer and water will not fall into the fields of outsiders. I don’t like family marriages. The men in the family marry wives and virtuous people wholeheartedly. The men are away all the year round, and the women all stay at home to have children. Bringing the children, and seeing them at home is also very virtuous with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, looking at ease, worry-free, and always living in peace.

This state of harmony and balance lasted until Lian Yun brought her back to her hometown, and then suddenly changed.

Her appearance was simply the first wave of explosions in the deep pool. Except for her parents, all the immediate uncles also rushed back, except for the New Year's day, her hometown has never been so lively.

What kind of person Yin Ru is, and what kind of person she has never met before. After talking with Lian Yun's parents for 5 minutes, she understood that she was not welcome in this family.

But she didn't take these things to heart. What she loved was Lian Yun, and it was Lian Yun who wanted to be with him. His parents stayed in his hometown all the year round, and his uncle had his own business all over the country. Their intersection was more in the boardroom, and she didn't feel like it would have any impact on her life or his.

She was wrong.

The power of a traditional family is enormous, and Lian Yun's ideas are not supported by anyone. Relatives who had long been slandering him for taking power began to point their finger at her, and regarded her professional background and sudden abandonment of her job as a way to deal with Lian Yun. threat.

It is understandable that if she is in such a traditional family, where the benefits will always be unevenly distributed, and the head of the family suddenly wants to marry a powerful foreign aid, anyone will have speculations in their hearts.

Although he didn't open his mouth, she could see that Lian Yun was under tremendous pressure. She loved this man, and with her character, she couldn't bear to hide his head and show his tail, so she made up her mind and went directly to the elders of Lian's family them.

They reacted coldly, and they never believed her statement until she sneered, how to prove it?
She woke up suddenly when the document was spread out in front of her. These people had already prepared this document, just waiting for her to throw herself into the trap.

Or maybe she underestimated the interests of these older generations, after all, she was scheming.

When she wrote the pen, she felt sad, as if what she had given up was not the real interests shown in black and white, but all her past life.

But when she stood beside Lian Yun in the auditorium, watching him smile at her, and then took her hand, she felt that everything was worth it, and she had nothing else to ask for.

She has no regrets, not even in the loneliest time after marriage.

He brought her a smile and made her feel like she was nothing short of it.God didn't owe her anything, all the happiness in this world had a price, and she was willing to pay.

But as time went by, he was still busy, but she was like a bird with broken wings, trapped in that huge and gorgeous house, and the whole content of life was just waiting.

After quarreling, he comforted her at first, then became impatient, and finally walked away.

Many times, she woke up alone in the morning light, the green grass behind the house, the sound of birdsong came to her ears, and there were people in the house, but none of them was what she really needed.

In the evening, walking slowly through so many rooms, the sunset is magnificent, but no one appreciates it, even she herself feels that she is going crazy.

She tried and tried hard, but in the end it was desperation that made her leave.

Love and longevity, is there only one choice?She can't treat all the changes in life in a normal way, can't enjoy every day with him or without him, and he can't change the deep-rooted thoughts. Although both parties have made concessions, it turns out that they are still two. People of the world, the two worlds can never merge together.

When she left, she didn't hate this man, she just made a decision that she thought was right. These days, she traveled around alone, even refusing her mother's company.

I have traveled a lot, thought a lot, seen a lot, and of course I also think of him. Sometimes I stand alone in the boundless beauty, surrounded by countless passers-by, and everyone is accompanying me, and I feel desolate.

But she has no regrets about all the decisions she has made, because regrets are useless and only increase her psychological burden. Now that she has taken this step, don't look back.

Forgetting someone, it is best not to hear any news about him again, completely cut off contact, and let time sharpen your memory.

It's a pity that she couldn't do it. Ye Qimei often contacted her and reported Lian Yun's current situation carefully every now and then, even Chen Li's ins and outs.

She knew what Qi Mei meant, she was not a nosy person, but she really hit it off with her, and unexpectedly insisted on this matter.

She was still on the phone with her just now, Ye Qimei's voice was very happy thousands of miles away, she was pregnant, and finally reached a positive result with Cheng Zhidong, and mentioned Lian Yun again, saying that he has been looking for himself, and he was very sincere when he finally ended the call Said to her, "Yin Ru, can you give me a little confidence? Let me believe that all the ups and downs are for trials, to let each other know that after going through everything, in the end, I still hope to have this person in my life, to have this person's company , let me believe that love makes marriage and marriage makes happiness?"

She didn't answer, but the moment she cut off the phone and looked up, she saw him again, Lian Yun, her husband, and the father of the child.

He doesn't seem to have changed at all, also, a man's youth is long, and he doesn't have to endure the torture of birth changes. As long as he maintains it properly, he can go from youthful pride to old age, and he will last forever.

But his eyes leaked emotions, anxious and painful, watching her so nervous that she didn't move.

Feeling unexpected and miraculous, there is a hallucination in front of my eyes, many pasts and futures with him and without him are parallel and intertwined, spreading all over the sky, like twin flowers.

When I was with him, I was happy and lonely.

Without him, there will be happiness, and of course there will be loneliness.

But those are different.

Yin Ru, can you give me some confidence?Let me believe that all ups and downs are for the test, to let each other know that after experiencing everything, I still hope to have this person in my life, to have this person's company, let me believe that love makes marriage and marriage makes happiness?
Those words have not dissipated, and they lingered repeatedly in the quiet night, and suddenly felt confused, and vaguely felt a place that had been vacant for a long time beating suddenly in my heart, as if something was trying to break free and rush out freely.

That thing is courage, right?
The courage to do it again?

Taking another look at the man in front of her, she suddenly felt that his expression was very interesting, Yin Ru turned her head and smiled slightly.
