Chapter 267

Ever since she came to Night City, Cen Qinghe has been trying hard to force herself to forget, and now that she is about to go home, she can't control the self-abuse-like memories.

She was looking at the plane outside the window in a daze, but when she looked at it, she somehow became distracted and saw a figure reflected on the glass, which was herself, staring at a certain place with empty eyes, and her eyes were full of deep despair.

Before this incident, Cen Qinghe always thought that despair was just an adjective, but now she realized that despair was a verb or a continuous verb.It can make a person's heart ache, and as long as one lives, there will be endless pain.

It is said that there is hope in life, there is nothing that cannot be done, and there is no obstacle that cannot be overcome, but Cen Qinghe wondered why God can give many people a chance to survive, but only give her Leave a dead end?

She wanted to explode her head, but she couldn't think of a way to get the best of both worlds.She couldn't just watch Xu Li go crazy after learning the truth, she couldn't just watch the family break up, so she chose to remain silent; at the same time, she couldn't pretend that this had never happened, she believed in Cen What Haifeng said, he didn't know the relationship between her and Xiao Rui, but what about Xiao Fangying?She always knew who Cen Haifeng was, she always knew that he had a wife and a daughter, right?
Knowing that the other party has a family, she still wants to deliberately step in... Even if she is Xiao Rui's own mother, she still looks down on her, not only looks down on her, but also deeply loathes and hates her.

What is said about loving the house and black, compared with Xu Li being kept in the dark as a fool, it is so ridiculous that it is not worth mentioning.

It wasn't until after the incident that Cen Qinghe realized that sometimes, love and family affection are really incomparable.She loves Xiao Rui, but Xiao Rui's mother is a mistress, which destroys the relationship between Cen Haifeng and Xu Li.If possible, Cen Qinghe could scold Xiao Fangying in front of Xiao Fangying without blinking her eyes, just because the existence of the other party hurt her own mother's interests.

This is human nature, people can think, protect their weaknesses, weigh the pros and cons, and likewise, seek the advantages and avoid the disadvantages.

Not being able to be with Xiao Rui anymore, Cen Qinghe would suffer in pain, and even cost her half her life.But it was not difficult to make such a choice, even when she caught a glimpse of Cen Haifeng's car keys on the tea table at Xiao Rui's house, she already knew the ending.

Cen Qinghe admires those who can forgive everything under the banner of tolerance.But she couldn't do it, maybe she was born narrow-minded, so she couldn't do it for her own selfish desires, to cover up her father and her mother-in-law, if she really did this for Xiao Rui, then she was sorry for Xu Li, and she was called Xu Li for nothing Mom of 23 years.

To put it bluntly, Xiao Rui couldn't let her not have her own mother.

Looking at himself reflected in the glass window, Cen Qinghe tried hard to raise the corners of his lips to make himself look more relieved.

She has already thought of the reason very clearly, she can have a boyfriend, but her mother can't.After a long time, everyone will be indifferent, she will find another boyfriend, and Xiao Rui can't be a bachelor forever... But why, her reason is clear, but her heart is a mess, every time she thinks she can figure it out Sometimes, there is always a voice in her ear misleading her.

"If Cen Haifeng didn't have an affair with Xiao Fangying, you and Xiao Rui could be together in a fair and aboveboard manner, get married and have children. If you love him so much, why can't you be together?"

This is a vicious circle, the more she wants to climb out, the more ugly and selfish her sensibility will be, the more she will be dragged down by her legs.

Cen Qinghe also wanted to deal with it indifferently, but in fact, she was also an ordinary person, so she turned everything she wanted into resentment and took revenge on Cen Haifeng.

It was him, because of his dereliction of duty and indulgence, that caused everyone to fall into the abyss.

The plane stopped for half an hour, and Cen Qinghe hid in a corner alone for half an hour in a daze.She didn't turn around until the stewardess shouted to board the plane with her horn.

When I got on the plane again, there was a change of people around me, and they boarded the plane from Hexi to Winter City.

Cen Qinghe didn't dare to sleep anymore, for fear of having nightmares again, so he kept leaning against the window, looking at the dark sky outside.

It took a total of three hours to fly from Binhai to Hexi, with a stopover of half an hour in the middle, and another three hours to arrive at Winterfell.Cen Qinghe reported to Xu Li that she was safe, so she had already turned off the plane before boarding. She didn't know that she was always thinking about her in Shangshao City by the sea.

He thought she was going back to Nightside, and counting the four-hour flight, she should be here by now.Sitting in the same private room with a group of friends playing cards, he was obviously absent-minded, and glanced at Chen Boxuan from time to time to see if he answered the phone.

Time passed by, and three rounds of cards were played in the blink of an eye, Chen Boxuan's phone didn't ring, and Shang Shaocheng became more and more anxious.

He didn't even look at it, and played a card of [-] cards casually, and Dou Chao, who sat him down, immediately pushed the card and made a fool of himself.

Shen Zisong said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a few years, Shaocheng is sensible, and he actually fired a cannon for someone else tonight."

Yang Hao also said: "No, I'm too embarrassed to take money if I win."

The corners of Shang Shaocheng's lips curled into a forced smile, but he was speechless.

Feeling annoyed in his heart, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Chen Boxuan at the opposite table looking down to take out his cell phone, and his eyes immediately glanced over.

Chen Boxuan spoke after connecting, but because there were a lot of people in the private room, everyone was saying everything, so Shang Shaocheng didn't hear clearly.

After a few words, Chen Boxuan hung up, and Shang Shaocheng didn't know if it was Cen Qinghe who called. He wanted to ask, but he was embarrassed, and he was still holding his breath. He couldn't even keep that person who didn't know how to praise him , I hate it so much that people's teeth itch.

Taking advantage of the time when the mahjong machine was shuffling the cards, Dou Chao said casually: "Shaocheng, why did your little assistant suddenly return to Yecheng? Can her body do it?"

Shang Shaocheng's expression was the same, and he said without any emotion, "She goes to work tomorrow."

Dou Chao said with a smile: "She works under your command. If you say a word, what kind of work does she have? How good is it to stay here with you?"

Shang Shaocheng smiled indifferently, "I don't need her company."

In fact, it was Cen Qinghe who refused to stay with him. Every time he thought of this, he wanted to pick up the phone and scold her.

While talking here, Chen Boxuan at the opposite table suddenly turned his head. He looked at Shang Shaocheng and said, "Hey, what time does Qinghe fly to Yecheng?"

Shang Shaocheng raised his eyes to look back at him, and said expressionlessly, "What are you doing?"

Chen Boxuan said: "She hasn't called me yet, I don't know if she has arrived yet."

As soon as these words came out, Shang Shaocheng's eyes flashed with surprise, and it took two seconds before he asked, "Didn't she call you just now?"

Chen Boxuan said, "My mother just hit me."

Shang Shaocheng's heart sank. Counting the time, it has been five hours since Cen Qinghe said he was going to board the plane.

Seeing this, Dou Chao glanced and joked, "Did you see that, no wonder he was absent-minded about playing cards, so he has been thinking about this all the time."

Both Shen Zisong and Yang Hao smiled and said nothing, the expressions on their faces were meaningful.

Shang Shaocheng was anxious, and now he couldn't care less about pretending. He looked directly past Shen Zisong, who was facing him, and landed on Chen Boxuan, and said aloud, "Call her."

Chen Boxuan took out his mobile phone and called Cen Qinghe. A few seconds later, he looked at Shang Shaocheng and said, "Shut down."

Shang Shaocheng frowned, his eyes were not so much accident, but naked worry.

Dou Chao loves to joke, but he can also see the height of his eyebrows. Hearing this, he withdrew his joking tone and asked seriously: "What time is the plane?"

The two mahjong tables here stopped, and at the table a little further away, Shen Guanren was the first to notice something was wrong, so he turned his head to look.

"what happened?"

Chen Boxuan called Cen Qinghe again, but the phone was still turned off.

He replied aloud: "Qinghe turned off the phone, I don't know if I have reached Night City or not."

Shang Shaocheng said: "Check the flight after 06:30 this afternoon, and when will it arrive at Night City."

Chen Boxuan asked Bai Bing beside him to check, Bai Bing looked down at his phone, and quickly replied: "There is one trip at 25:45, and it arrives at [-]:[-]; there are two trips at [-]:[-], and they both arrive at [-]:[-]; After that, it will be [-]:[-], and it will be [-]:[-]."

Shang Shaocheng glanced at the watch on his left wrist. It was already 25:[-] at night, and he panicked. Although he didn't speak, his expression was unavoidable.

Shen Guanren said: "Are you sure you took the flight back after seven o'clock?"

Chen Boxuan also said out loud, "Maybe it's the next flight." Then, he elbowed Bai Bing beside him, and Bai Bing also saw that Shang Shaocheng's expression was wrong, so he immediately looked down at the phone, and said: "At 25:[-], [-]:[-], and [-]:[-], there are five flights in total, and they all arrive at Nightside at [-]:[-]."

It's ten past twelve, and it's been almost 10 minutes. If the plane lands, Cen Qinghe should also start the machine.

Shang Shaocheng remained silent all the time, no emotion could be seen on his handsome face.

Shen Guanren said: "Maybe the phone is out of battery?"

Someone next to him echoed, "Wait a little longer."

Because a mobile phone was turned off, more than a dozen people in the room stopped and stared at Shang Shaocheng.Reason is telling Shang Shaocheng that he should pretend to be calm and breezy at the moment, so as to avoid being laughed at by others, not to mention who is Cen Qinghe?Not a girlfriend, just an assistant.

But at the same time, he couldn't control his worry and fear. If the plane landed normally, she should have turned it on long ago. Is it true that the phone just ran out of battery, or... something happened?

"It's okay, the phone is probably out of battery." After a few seconds of silence, Shang Shaocheng said lightly, and then reached out to roll the dice and draw cards.

Chen Boxuan also said: "Wait a little longer, I'll probably call when I get home."

For many people, it was not a big deal after all, so the scene soon heated up again, and everyone continued to play cards and chat.

When eating, drinking and having fun, time should pass quickly, but for Shang Shaocheng, every second really feels like a year.

His worry for her had reached the point that he couldn't suppress it with reason. Finally, just after one o'clock, he suddenly raised his eyes to look at Chen Boxuan's back in front of him and said, "Call her."

Chen Boxuan turned his head slowly and saw Shang Shaocheng looking at him, so he responded, then picked up his mobile phone and called Cen Qinghe.

Shang Shaocheng stared at Chen Boxuan, he was most afraid that Chen Boxuan would say the word shut down, but God failed, Chen Boxuan looked at him within a few seconds, and said with a wrong expression: "Shut down."
