match in black

"Okay, today's New Year's Eve, let's leave the meeting early and spend more time with your family." Lin Qian put down the folder in his hand, with his usual gentle expression.The department heads in front of the conference table were obviously relieved, and they sighed in their hearts that this mysterious person in charge who just airborne not long ago is better than the big shareholder's son who was so difficult to serve in every other way except for his good looks. Fooled too much.Not only is he very polite to his subordinates on a daily basis, even if he really criticizes people, he always has a warm smile like a spring breeze on his face. Coupled with his very handsome appearance, he once gloriously became the front desk girl who loves gossip the most. A month's worth of talk.

This time too, the annual year-end summary was almost not a problem for them. The new person in charge just sat quietly and listened to the reports of the various managers with a serious expression.He didn't seem to be very familiar with the business, and he didn't react too much after listening to everyone's reports. He didn't even point out some minor mistakes like the previous difficult young master mercilessly.While packing up the materials on the table, the supervisors prepared to rub their feet and leave quickly. On the last day of the end of the year, almost everyone was not focused on work.

The newly appointed head of the finance department is closest to the door, and has the most active mind to run away early.Ever since he heard that his predecessor was dismissed by his boss inexplicably at the year-end summary last year, he has been sitting on eggshells in this position.But the finance department is the most troublesome department in the whole company. After he stayed in fear for a few months, he heard that there was a new good-tempered person in charge, and the little thoughts that had been suppressed before became active again.

In the remaining few months, although he was not as blatant as Zhang Guodong, he also sneaked a lot of benefits secretly.He was the most nervous about the year-end summary this time, and he did his best in the report. At the end of this time, he didn’t hear the new person in charge make trouble. .

Among the group of people, he was the fastest to collect things, and he couldn't wait for the others to stand up, so he stretched out his hand towards the doorknob, ready to open the door of the conference room.It's just that before his hand touched the door, the door was pushed open from the outside menacingly. The financial director couldn't dodge in time, and was almost hit on the head by the glass door.

He straightened his collar, and before he could get angry, he heard the colleagues around him gasp in unison.

"Yo, what, want to get angry?"

The person who came was a young man he didn't know, wearing a well-made wool coat, with a section of snow-white neck exposed from the collar of his ironed shirt.The young man looked at him with a half-smile, with a hint of provocation in his eyes:

"You're fired."

He strode towards the end of the meeting room with strides, and kept touching the foreheads of several executives. The distance of more than ten meters made him feel as if he had walked out of the red carpet of the film festival, and the faces of the people whose names were called suddenly turned ashen.

"You, you, you, and you, you're all fired."

He went all the way, called and fired people in one go, walked to the side of the person in charge, unceremoniously pulled out the chair and sat on it, and raised his slender and slender leg gracefully.

"Others get the hell out of me within 30 seconds, and the meeting ends."

The chief financial officer wanted to say something more, but a colleague with a good relationship hurriedly stopped him, and only whispered something in his ear. He left without making a sound, draining his strength.

"Those people are so tricky, what are you thinking when you hold back? Don't tell me you didn't see it." The meeting room was empty, Gu Jingxi glanced at Lin Qian, and said with a little dissatisfaction.

"It's New Year's Eve. It's not too late to make people happy to mention these things after the New Year's Eve. I didn't expect you to come today." Lin Qian smiled, and gently patted Gu Jingxi's head.

"I won't come? If I don't come, you will let a bunch of moths eat for another day." Gu Jingxi unexpectedly did not avoid his hand, but calmed down a little as if he had been patted down, and only whispered He muttered, "Wang Wenyan doesn't know how to do it, so next year he will continue to deduct his bonus."

"Okay, okay, you are such an unlucky boss at Wang Wenyan's booth, you really can't cry." Lin Qian wrapped the scarf around Gu Jingxi's neck tightly, took his hand naturally, and said with a smile, "Let's go out Bar."

"En." Uncharacteristically, Gu Jingxi lost his temper, obediently being led by him, and the two walked out of the company together.

They had dinner at a Michelin three-star hotel that Lin Qian had booked early. On the night of New Year's Eve, this restaurant with a lot of customers was almost full, and most of the people who came to eat were couples. The joy of the coming new year.After drinking a glass of pre-dinner aperitif, Gu Jingxi's face was already slightly drunk, and his porcelain-white skin flushed slightly, which was really pretty.Lin Qian couldn't remember exactly what he ate and drank that meal.The only thing I can remember is Gu Jingxi's pair of eyes that look extraordinarily bright under the warm yellow light.

After dinner, they went to the movies together.The clichéd love story made the girl next to her cry in the boy's arms and her eyes turned red.Gu Jingxi cast a contemptuous look at the couple, then huddled together beside Lin Qian, yawning in a boring way.

It was almost ten o'clock after watching the movie, but the streets were still full of people.Like every couple would do, Lin Qian held Gu Jingxi's hand and stuffed it into his coat pocket. Pedestrians were passing by, cars were beeping their horns in the driveway, and steaming steam was coming from the small oden stalls on both sides of the street. .Gu Jingxi became interested, regardless of the dinner he had just had, he excitedly went to a small stall to buy a few skewers, ran back and ate several in one go, thought about it, and handed Lin Qian a stick with great reluctance. .

Lin Qian looked at Gu Jingxi with a smile, his cheeks bulging from the beef balls, and the radiant look in his eyes.Couple after couple of lovers walked past them, he held Gu Jingxi's hand, wanting to do all the things that all lovers in the world would do.

But don't worry, they will have many, many tomorrows.

It has been a whole month since Shen Qianhe's sudden attack.

There were too many things that happened that day, and it was too chaotic, it took Lin Qian a long time to sort them all out.The squad led by Wang Meng arrived on a motorboat at the last moment and rescued Lin Qian and Gu Jingxi before the cruise ship sank completely.They searched the sea for a long time, and finally found Gu Shenzhi who was already unconscious, and Shen Qianhe was strangled by his neck, and was already breathless.Gu Shenzhi's hands were so strong that even though he was unconscious, everyone couldn't take his hands away from Shen Qianhe's neck.

After that, the Gu family searched for three days and three nights without stopping, and finally found Wang Wenyan, who was rescued by fishermen from other provinces, in an unknown city hospital.It is said that when Wang Wenyan was discovered by fishermen, the wounds on his body caused by the explosion had already been treated briefly, otherwise he would have been dead.

And Gu Jingxi was almost the one who was injured the most.

On the car that was speeding to the hospital that day, Lin Qian intermittently listened to Wang Meng describe what happened when they went to see Wang Xiaotong.Gu Jingxi stayed at home waiting for the news, but followed Wang Meng's objection resolutely.On the way to the rescue, because of Ye Lan's betrayal, they encountered an ambush on the way. The off-road vehicle rushing to the front exploded unexpectedly, killing and wounding more than half of the elites. Got a rib.And the process of rescuing Wang Xiaotong was a fierce battle. When she was rescued, Gu Jingxi's whole body was already dripping with blood.

Lin Qian didn't know what kind of feelings it was that made Gu Jingxi insist on forcing Wang Meng to take him to Crescent Bay even though he was almost collapsed.He also didn't know how Gu Jingxi overcame the severe pain of bone fractures and gunshot wounds, and fired those two shots calmly and decisively on the cruise ship.Holding Gu Jingxi who was almost soaked in blood, he felt his heart was about to break.

I don’t know if he felt that he was going to be unable to hold on anymore, Gu Jingxi spoke a lot intermittently in a daze, the numbness of dying made him relax, he briefly loosened the shackles that had been imprisoned on his heart, as if if he could put these After pouring out all the suffering and bitterness of the past year, it seemed that he himself would no longer be in pain.

"I've known since I was very young... about Dad and Uncle Lin. When Dad faces Uncle Lin, he will show a different expression."

"My mother later...knew about the past between the two of them, couldn't accept it, and committed suicide. Before she died, she looked at me and said that I shouldn't have been born."

"Only Uncle Lin told me that's not the case. Although my father doesn't like my mother...but he loves me very much. I like Uncle Lin very much, but after knowing about my mother...he doesn't come anymore."

"When I saw Uncle Lin...he was already dead."

"It was raining heavily that day... Dad hugged him and walked back in the rain. Uncle Wang and the others followed him. No one dared to go over to hold an umbrella for him... Dad was dripping with water, and Uncle Lin was also dripping. …the rain was mixed with red blood, he had a hole in his heart, and my dad had a gun in his hand."

"I almost can't recognize Uncle Lin. He is so thin and looks so light. Dad hugs him like a feather."

"Dad held Uncle Lin in his arms and stayed in the house for three days and three nights... After he came out, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and thought he had returned to normal. Only I knew... Dad would never come back again. "

"...You came later."

"I really hate you... Every time you look at me, I feel that I can't hide the small thoughts about you in my heart, as if the whole person is seen from the outside by you."

"But my father is the murderer who killed your father. You have been kept in the dark...but I dare not tell you about it."

"You're going to hate my dad...you hate me, too."

"So I can only hate you... If I hate you first, I won't feel so sad being hated by you again."

"I was dumbfounded when I heard the news that you were going to get engaged... Then I thought, ah, you are finally getting married. After so many years, I can finally walk out of your shadow. But I can't... I can't do it to bless you."

"When I heard the news of Wang Xiaotong's arrest, I was so viciously fortunate... I couldn't help but think, it would be great if she just died like this, it would be great if she died."

"But I still went to save her... Fortunately, I went, otherwise she wouldn't be able to save her."

"I know you promised your father and chose that dark road, and you can only be a shadow sneaking in the dark from now on. I don't want your hard work for so many years to go to waste... since knowing the agreement between you and your father From the beginning, I never touched a gun again."

"But I want to save her, and I want to save you too."

"...If she dies, you will be very sad, she loves you so much."

Gu Jingxi frowned, still tossed and turned by this painful memory in a coma, he coughed, blood slowly flowed from the corner of his mouth, but there was a strange smile on his face.

"She loves you so much...but I do too...but I love you too."

"Even if I go to hell with you, I'm willing."

On the last stop of New Year's Eve, Lin Qian drove to Crescent Bay.

After more than a month of repairs, this bay has long since lost the thrilling traces of that day.At this moment, it was close to midnight, and the mouth of the bay was quiet. Several ships docked at the port showed black shadows in the moonlight.The cold wind was blowing outside the window, while the heater was turned on in the car, and someone happened to order Christina Perri's "AThousand Years" on the radio.

"The day we met,

Frozen I held my breath,

Right from the start,

I knew that I'd found a home form my heart..."

"Gu Jingxi." Lin Qian said softly.

"En?" Gu Jingxi turned to look at him, there was no more ice and snow in his eyes, and they were as bright as stars at this moment.

"One step closer,

I have died every day waiting for you..."

In the soft singing, Lin Qian carefully took out a velvet box from his pocket and slowly opened it.

——A small silver ring lay quietly inside.

"We've missed it for so long, I don't want to wait any longer."

"Gu Jingxi, I love you."

He opened his mouth solemnly, he had wanted to say this confession for too long, so long that as soon as he said it, he had the urge to cry.

The bell rang at zero o'clock, and the fireworks from City X on the other side rushed towards the sky with their long tails, and exploded at the highest point.The fireworks in the sky were like stars falling leisurely, and Lin Qian saw the most brilliant fiery trees and silver flowers in the world in Gu Jingxi's eyes, which were as bright and eye-catching as glass.

"I will be brave,

I will not let anything take away what's standing infront of me,

Every breath,

Every hour has come to this..."

"I love you too." Gu Jingxi smiled, he stretched out his hand, and Lin Qian put the little ring on for him amidst the brilliance.

"I have loved you for a thousand years,

I'll love you for a thousand and more..."

At this moment, it happened to be the No.19 year when they met.

They still have many tomorrows they can spend together.
