Newlywed and old love, the president's secret bride

Chapter 217 It was already late when Tang Jichi sent your chief engineer here.

Duan Zijin's bedroom was directly facing the garden in front of the apartment building. She sat in the car and looked up a little, and happened to see a dark figure standing quietly by the window.

As if seeing the Bentley downstairs, the black figure immediately turned his head and walked out, and appeared next to the car in a short while.

The expression on the man's face showed traces of trying his best to bear it, which was far inferior to those deep-minded men Duan Zijin usually came into contact with who knew how to hide it, so she could easily teach her to see his urgency.

"Why did you come back?" Duan Zipei supported her two forearms, looked her up and down, his eyes seemed to punch a hole in her body, "Where did you go?"

His question made Duan Zijin hesitate for a moment, thinking of what happened just now, his heart ached again.

Her pupils dimmed, and the words remained between her lips, but she couldn't speak them out after all.

Duan Zipei was keenly aware of something, and immediately turned his attention to the man in the car.

When Tang Jichi saw him looking over, he frowned slightly, and stared at Duan Zijin's profile with calm eyes, but he didn't have the slightest intention to speak.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Tang Jichi bent down and walked out of the car, calmly avoiding Duan Zipei's scrutiny, walked up to Duan Zijin and told her: "I heard that Ah Qing is going to the crew to make up the shots tomorrow, and I can only accompany you in the inspection." You went. The appointment was not too early this time, you sleep more, I will pick you up at ten o'clock. "

Duan Zijin nodded, Tang Jichi didn't speak any more, and sat back in the car.

The headlights flickered, and soon, the black Bentley gradually drifted away in the night.

"Ah Qing." Duan Zijin called him in a low voice.

Duan Zipei interrupted her coldly: "Go upstairs first."

When he got home, he was still expressionless and very unhappy. He went to the kitchen without saying a word and poured the milk that had been sitting on the fire into a cup. The cup was placed heavily on the coffee table in front of her, "Drink it if you don't want to talk, and go to sleep."

Duan Zijin held the hot milk in his hand and sipped it slowly, but his mind was far away.

Duan Zipei endured and endured, but in the end he couldn't hold back, "Didn't you go for an examination today? Why do you have to go tomorrow? What's wrong?"

"No." Duan Zi replied cautiously, "Mi Lan had an accident this afternoon, so I didn't wait for the inspection, so I went to see her first."

Duan Zipei snorted coldly, "Sisters love each other?"

"Ah Qing." Duan Zijin was very helpless. When he mentioned this matter, even his voice became hoarse several inches, "Milan's child is gone, she is very sad now, and she refuses to see anyone but me, how can I leave her behind?" She doesn't care?"

This news really stunned Duan Zipei, his two handsome eyebrows were slowly drawn together, almost twisted into a knot, "What's going on?"

"I don't know either. She refuses to tell. I think she's not in good spirits, so she didn't dare to ask." Duan Zijin didn't even feel like drinking milk. It was as if he was suffocated, unable to go up or down.

There were too many things that happened in this short afternoon and night, and they were all blows one after another. As long as she let go of her mind a little, all she could feel was pain.

Duan Zipei has always been straightforward, and he doesn't know how to comfort others. He frowned and looked at her for a long time, and then said forcefully: "The thing has already happened, no matter how sad you are, it won't help. If you accidentally hurt the girl in your belly , then the gain outweighs the gain. Now I can only hope that Fu Yan's conscience is not eaten by dogs, so don't make trouble at this time."

"Fu Yan, probably not...I think he treats Mi Lan very well."

"You still speak for him?" Duan Zipei sneered, "Which one of the four brothers is good? Can Fu Yan treat Mi Lan well? What do you think is good? She is well-clothed and well-fed. It’s good to wear it? The most important thing for the third son of Fu is money. Even if he doesn’t give Mi Lanhua, he will find other places to squander it. You must know that money is the most dispensable thing for Fu Yan. What kind of sincerity is it to treat others with something dispensable? If he really cares about Mi Lan, will this happen?"

His words were too blunt and blunt, like a rock with corners, piercing into Duan Zijin's heart.

Seeing that the expression on her face was getting uglier, Duan Zipei scolded herself for not being able to speak, and hurriedly remedied: "Actually, that's fine, she is just dawdling in the showbiz, and now Fu Yan is ashamed She, is she still afraid that the future road will be difficult? This can be regarded as..." He thought for a while, and said, "It's a blessing in disguise, a blessing in disguise!"

Duan Zijin held the cup in her hand, even though her palm was pressed against the hot body of the cup, she still felt a chill creeping into her heart.

She couldn't help reaching out and stroking her stomach, "Ah Qing, you will understand when you become a parent. This is not a blessing in disguise. No mother would choose to give up her child to pursue a career."

"But you can think about it from another angle." Duan Zipei said in a deep voice, "Does Fu Yan have feelings for Mi Lan? What will happen after this child is born? Are they going to let their mother and child depend on others for the rest of their lives? Who is Mr. Fu? He holds half of the entertainment industry in his hands, and he has more contacts with singers and movie stars all day long than the salespersons you see in a shopping mall. Men are easy to fall in love with others, but women are easy to be tied down by children. At that time, Mi Lan couldn't do without him, but Fu Yan brought another woman home, do you think this kind of life will be better than her future success?"

Duan Zijin's breathing was suddenly suffocated, and for a long time, his chest was so stuffy that it hurt, so he asked, "Are all men like this?"

"what?"

"What you said is empathy, taking another woman home...is it empathy?"

Duan Zipei looked at her like a fool, "It's really a three-year pregnancy and a fool. The women brought them home, so it's not empathy. Could it be that the two of them are playing chess and drinking tea in the bedroom and talking about life? Men have bad roots. Yes, can you still be planted on the same woman for the rest of your life?"

Duan Zijin was clutching the cup, his palms were hot and red, but he didn't seem to feel it at all, the expression on his face was completely cold, "Yes, you are right. Instead of doing this, it's better to get rid of the relationship early...don't fall into this quagmire inside."

Duan Zipei was stunned for a moment, sensing something was wrong, "What's wrong with you today?"

This was the first time in so many years that Yoyo affirmed his statement so happily, without coldly refuting it.

Instead, he was a little unaccustomed to it.

"It's nothing." Duan Zijin looked down at the thick, still milk in the cup, and his brown pupils were like a pool of stagnant water that couldn't be stirred, with no temperature or ups and downs, "I just suddenly realized that you know men better than I do."

Duan Zipei smiled triumphantly, "It's useless, I was born with a handle, this is called an innate advantage!"

Duan Zijin glanced at him lightly, "You do understand men, but you don't understand love. You are talking about men, but not men who fall in love with a woman."

Just like human beings are born with seven emotions and six desires, evil thoughts and malicious intentions, but what we do throughout our life is nothing more than learning how to control them.

Men's inferiority may be born with it, but love will teach them how to choose between loyalty and desire.

Duan Zipei's handsome face was suddenly clouded, "Duan You, don't think that you can pretend to be a lover in front of me after a failed relationship. A man who falls in love with a woman is also a man. Do you think everyone is as stupid as you?" Stubborn, fell into the pit of the same man for eight years and couldn't get out?"

Duan Zi squinted at him, "Why do I feel that the meaning that comes out of your mouth is not a good quality, but it has become a bad habit that should be eliminated?"

"I never thought about it that way." Duan Zipei sat stiffly on the sofa, his posture was far less relaxed than before, and his tone sounded hard, "After all, parents are the best example. I don't think it's bad to love someone deeply, but In this situation, even if your parents are still there, they will persuade you to give up on him. You love him, but you must admit that Jiang Lin is not your lover."

He thought that after he said these words, he would immediately hear Yoyo's rebuttal and explanation as usual.

But she didn't.

Duan Zipei didn't hear anything, and for a moment it was so quiet that he couldn't even hear his breathing.

He turned his head to look at her, only to see that a strand of her hair tied behind her ear had come loose, which just covered the outline of her side face, and just blocked all the possibility of her being prying into her emotions.

She was silent for a long time, her tone was ordinary, and there was a faint and traceless coldness in her voice, "What makes you feel this way?"

Duan Zipei savored her tone carefully, but found that her tone at this time was completely different from the usual tit-for-tat sharpness.

It seems that I really just can't understand something, so I have this question.

Duan Zipei thought for a long time, going through all the experiences she had with Jiang Lin in her mind, and finally looked at her swollen abdomen, and said in a deep voice: "I won't say anything else, but right now, he doesn't even You don't even recognize the child in your womb, and he believes it when you say it's not his. Shouldn't you break up and keep this kind of man for the New Year?"

Duan Zijin narrowed his eyes, and gave him a deep sideways glance.

Duan Zipei continued: "No matter how much evidence you give him to prove that the child is not his, as long as he believes it, it means—either he has low self-esteem and doesn't trust himself; or, he doesn't trust you."

"What do you think he is?"

"Everyone knows that Jiang Lin is deeply conceited, how can a person like him have low self-esteem?" Duan Zipei sneered.

Duan Zi held his chin, and said lightly: "Then there is only another possibility."

Jiang Lin didn't trust her.

Seeing that it was going to be late at night if we continued talking, Duan Zijin got up expressionlessly hugging the cushions on the sofa, "I'm going to bed, you should go to bed early too."

"Yuyou." He stopped her, with dark waves surging in his dark blue eyes.

Duan Zijin didn't look back, "Huh?"

"If, I mean, if, he comes back, you will still..."

"No." Duan Zijin replied very simply and calmly, "Whether he believes in me or not, it will be difficult for us to get back together. He has his life, and I have mine. But listen to you tonight Having said this, I suddenly realized that after eight years of relationship, it finally came down to the sentence that he doesn't believe me..."

She paused, showing an elusive smile, but there was a slight bitterness in the depths, "It always makes me feel a little regretful."

"Ah."

Duan Zipei kept looking at her back, until the door of her bedroom was completely closed, and only he and the half glass of cold milk were left in the living room, then he leaned back heavily on his back.

In fact, he knew that Jiang Lin was back.

In the afternoon, before Yao Beier went to pick up the plane, she went to show off in front of him.

At that time, he was fidgeting, worried that Yoyo would rush to Jiang Lin's side without giving up when he heard about it, and reconcile with him regardless.

Later, what he was worried about really happened. After Youyou came out of the hotel at night, he went to the villa by the river. Sooner or later, Tang Ji sent him a text message when he first arrived there.

He raised his hand to pinch his swollen eyebrows.I remembered that Tang Jichi said in a text message that Jiang Lin had brought another woman back.

In addition to loathing his behavior, Duan Zipei couldn't help but feel a little lucky - if Yoyo really gave up because of seeing that woman, that would be just right.

But he always had a vague feeling that things would not go so smoothly.

*

Early the next morning, Zhou Yicheng drove to pick up his husband to go to work. As soon as he entered the door of the villa, he saw a woman sitting opposite him at the dining table from a distance.

With her hair tied up and dressed in cool and casual clothes, she was stirring the coffee in front of her with a small spoon in her hand, as if she had just woken up, and covered her mouth with one hand and yawned.

Zhou Yicheng's footsteps stopped suddenly, his eyes were filled with astonishment and disbelief.

Yesterday, Mr. took this Miss Mu home?

Seeing him coming, Jiang Lin put down the newspaper in his hand, and said calmly: "I'm going to the company today, you can stroll here by yourself, if you want to go out, ask the driver to take you."

Mu Nianci responded, picked up the coffee and took a sip, then said softly, "Are you coming back for dinner tonight?"

"return."

"Oh, then I'll wait for you." She put down her coffee cup, saw that Jiang Lin was about to go out, and hurriedly said as if she suddenly remembered something, "By the way, don't forget to bring my book back."

Jiang Lin nodded, "Okay."

The sight of this old couple made Zhou Yicheng at a loss, but he still didn't dare to ask anything. He silently glanced at Mu Nianci, and followed Jiang Lin out silently.

Just one day after the group's eighth anniversary celebration, the headquarter of Hands down changed the joyous atmosphere yesterday. All departments were in dire straits, and the leaders of each department were so busy that they didn't even have time to drink their saliva.

In the past two months when Jiang Lin was away, many projects in the company were not progressing smoothly due to various problems. The first thing he did after he came back was to call a meeting for the relevant employees of each group of projects. In a hurry, he didn't leave the leather chair in the conference room during the whole day, except to go to the bathroom.

The closer the meeting room was, the more obvious the cold air was. Everyone could tell that Mr. Jiang was in an extremely bad mood.At the end of the day, who hasn't been scolded twice?

Most of the time when Jiang Lin was in a meeting, he clasped his hands and sat quietly, like a dormant beast.Once he speaks, the sharp words can pierce people in minutes.

Even so, no one dared to complain, because although his words were sharp, everything he said made sense.

Finally, after the fourth meeting in the afternoon, he glanced at his watch expressionlessly and said, "Continue in half an hour."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but his next words made their hearts tighten silently, "Where's the person in charge of the engineering department?"

Everyone looked at Xiao Li from the engineering department at the same time, and couldn't help feeling sorry for him—it's not a good thing to be named by Mr. Jiang.

Xiao Li, who was drinking water, shook his hands in fright and almost smashed the water glass. He stood up bravely and said in a low voice, "Boss Jiang, I'm here."

The man's handsome long eyebrows frowned slightly, "Who are you?"

Xiao Li's heart trembled again. He wanted to say, Mr. Jiang, you are the person in charge of the engineering department. I stood up. If I am not the person in charge of the engineering department, who else could I be?

However, he didn't have the guts after all, he just said: "I am the engineer in charge of this case, and my surname is Li."

The first man sitting on the top opened the folder, his deep black eyes swept slightly, his voice was frighteningly cold, but the corners of his lips curled up, "This equipment improvement plan was abandoned by the Akers Group two years ago. , you are showing it to me now... are you suggesting to me that you want to resign and take a vacation?"

Xiao Li's thin body trembled like a sieve for a moment. He never expected that Mr. Jiang would see through his carefully "decorated" plan.

Everyone didn't dare to show their anger, but Yu Song suddenly had a strange idea.

He glanced at the man thoughtfully, cleared his throat, and said to Xiao Li in a deep voice, "What do you do? Call your chief engineer!"

Zhou Yicheng raised his eyelids and looked at him in amazement. Yu Song is usually a thieves, but at this juncture he seldom makes a sound, for fear of getting himself caught in the fire. Why did he step on a landmine today?

Are you not afraid of being angered by your husband?

Thinking about it, Zhou Yicheng looked at the man with a stern face on the first seat, but he saw the corner of his lips tightly pursed. Although his face was displeased, he didn't say a word of rebuttal to stop him.

No matter how you say it, Yu Song is also a person close to Mr. Jiang. He is usually kind and kind, but when he is really serious, his momentum is not bad.Xiao Li didn't dare to look up at his glance, and tremblingly said: "Duan Gong, Duan Gong is off today..."

Duan Gong!He actually forgot that the chief engineer is Duan Zijin!

Zhou Yicheng was stunned for a few seconds, his eyes suddenly darkened.

I saw the handsome and gentle man loosen the corners of his lips, and then curved his lips in a cold mockery, "Is today a rest day?"

Listening to his words, Zhou Yicheng finally understood where the strange feeling in his heart came from - Mr. first called the name of the engineering department, and then opened the design draft and started to criticize.

That is to say, regardless of whether there is any problem with this plan, Xiao Li will inevitably be reprimanded.Because from the beginning, the gun was aimed at the people behind Xiao Li!

Xiao Li moved his lips but didn't speak, but the leaders of other departments said eccentrically: "Mr. Jiang doesn't know something. Duan Gong can take one more day off than other employees every week. This is the prerogative of the chief engineer."

After hearing this, the man's eyes gradually became cloudy, and he asked calmly, "Who approved it?"

"Boss Fu." The man continued to sarcastically, "We thought Chief Engineer Duan was so powerful that he could do our five days' work in four days' shift. I didn't expect... the proposals handed over turned out to be this kind of rival company For something that was abandoned two years ago, Duan Gong has a lot of talents and an awe-inspiring atmosphere!"

Hearing this, Yu Song's left and right cheeks ached at the same time, and suddenly felt that he had done something wrong—he intended to invite Ms. Duan to the meeting room to talk to her husband, but why did he somehow push her to the forefront?

There was a faint discussion in the meeting room.

"Fu Yan?" The man's cold voice easily overwhelmed the others. Under the deep eyebrows, the color of his eyes flickered, "What about others?"

"Boss Fu was on vacation yesterday, and he hasn't come yet today."

"What a good example!" The man slapped the pen in his hand on the table suddenly, and the people below were silent at the same time. He raised his eyes and looked at Mao Tian, ​​who was standing quietly in the corner, wishing to disappear and eliminate his sense of existence, and said with a sneer, "Take you Mrs. Fu asked me to come back and told him that if I can't see him before I get off work today, there are plenty of people who are willing to take the position of vice president!"

Maotian frowned, he was from the Fu family, the whole company, even Mr. Shang and Mr. Shao would not speak to him in this manner.

But he didn't dare to choke with Mr. Jiang, he just said, "Yes, Mr. Jiang."

After Mr. Fu's matter was settled, someone below asked again: "Mr. Jiang, what about that period of work?"

The man's eyes were narrowed, and his tone was lukewarm, "What about the personnel affairs? Re-account and clear her attendance records. Starting today, I will work overtime every day until ten o'clock in the evening until it is completed. Next All half-year bonuses will be deducted."
