Seeing that they were running out of the presidential suite, the waiter apologized and went to help her: "Miss, are you alright? "I'm sorry."
"It's fine, it's fine." Shu Shu stood up in a fluster, dusting off the dust on her buttocks. Without focusing her eyes, she lame her way towards the elevator.
Her knee hurt, but it was less than a thousandth of what she felt.
Ling Qiao put on his suit and pants as fast as he could, not even wearing a shirt. When he chased out after his, the moment the elevator went down, he turned around and ran towards the stairs.
After running two floors, he returned to the elevator and pressed the button. Just as the door was opened, Shu Shu saw him and was astonished. She was hiding in a corner and trembling, but seeing him enter, she ran outside.
"Wife," Ling Qiao grabbed her and closed the elevator door, "I don't know what's going on, can you trust me?" Even he himself felt that he was making excuses. He felt that he really wasn't a man.
Shu Shu smiled, pointed at the mirror inside the elevator and said, "Look at the mark on your body, can you fake it? Ling Qiao, what you've done is done. That's right, just admit it. You lying to me makes me even more disappointed. "
"What is it? What do I admit? I'm drunk!"
"How can it be as simple as getting drunk? You all have never stopped. I know that you only want to enjoy the blessings of a group of people. What guilt, what debt, those are all excuses."
At this moment, the elevator made another "ding" sound. Someone was about to enter, but Ling Qiao immediately blocked off Shu Shu in the corner, moving closer to her with no limit.
A lodger stepped into the elevator, thought the two men were having an affair, and stood at the far end.
Shu Shu could not suppress the pain in her heart. She covered her mouth with her hand to prevent herself from making a sound. No matter how heartbroken she was, no matter how much she wanted to cry, she had to find a place where there was no one.
Ling Qiao looked on helplessly as her tears rolled down his face. He wanted to wipe them away, but she turned his head away from his touch. His heart was about to break.
Stopping her, he also saw himself in the mirror. His cheeks were red and swollen, the five handprints were very obvious, there was a deep kiss on his neck, and there was even a kiss on his chest.
His head was still aching, and he clearly remembered that he had drunk too much, but he was not so drunk, and he deliberately asked Deng Zijun to take him home. Zhu Gui said that perhaps the wife of his family was waiting for him. He said that he was, and Chen Rong said that he would call his wife over for a meal next time. He said that he would remember all of this.
But when he woke up later, he couldn't remember why he was lying in the hotel with Tang and Qing Qing by his side.
"Ding!" When the elevator reached the first floor, Shushu pushed him away unawares and ran out of the elevator.
The night air was cool, and her eyes were wet to the temples. She felt in her pocket for her car keys, but she didn't want to see him.
Ling Qiao chased after him. She got into the car and he got in as well.
Shu Shu shouted, "You are dismissed! You are dismissed!"
Of course, Ling Qiao did not want to do so. He tightly gripped onto her shoulder. With her current emotional state, it was impossible for her to drive a car.
"Ling Qiao, I hate you. I hate the smell of other people on your body. So smelly, so disgusting. Let go of me, don't touch me." In the car, she was venting, "I hate you, you always treat me like a fool, I give up, I surrender, I don't want to play games with you!"
Ling Qiao was in a very sorry state, but no matter how miserable he was, he would not let go of Shu Shu, "What nonsense are you spouting? What games are you playing? Listen to me!"
There was no need to compare strength with him. Shu Shu didn't want to see the kiss mark on his neck, so she closed her eyes tightly and shouted, "I won't listen! I won't listen! I don't want to see the things on your body!"
Ling Qiao took a deep breath. Right now, it was not the time to speak. Since Shu Shu was so agitated, she would not listen to anything. As for Ling Qiao, he also needed to organize her thoughts.
He opened the door and got out of the car. Before ShuShu could react, he went around to the driver's side and pulled her out. He opened the back door and shoved her inside.
He squeezed into the back seat with Shushu in his arms, letting her hit him if she wanted to hit him, cursing him if she wanted to curse him. He was also upset about what had happened today, and although he didn't know why, he did do something to make Shushu feel sorry for him.
However, Shushu calmed down instead. With her back facing him, she neither cried nor made a ruckus.
"Wife, let's talk about it when we get home, okay?" At this moment, Ling Qiao suddenly felt afraid. It was not that she didn't know of Shu Shu's stubborn personality. She had always been brooding in her heart over his and Tang Sqing's past.
Shu Shu curled up in the corner, neither speaking nor raising her head.
Ling Qiao knitted his eyebrows. He had no other choice but to turn to the front and take a look at the front of the car. When he turned back, he saw that Shu Shu was still the same as before.
T City was a real Nightless City. As night fell, the city was full of energy. As the car drove through the busy city, the signboard of the shop kept backing up, each one more beautiful than the last.
Shu Shu's heart felt extremely uncomfortable. Her mind was preoccupied with the scene of him pushing open the door. Wasn't it just a drinking party? It wasn't as if Ling Qiao had never been drunk before. If he really only had guilt and had no feelings for Tang Siqing, would he have rolled onto the bed? How could she have forgotten that Osha had a face that was very similar to Tang and he had never forgotten Tang and Qing.
She really didn't expect that after only a week on business, the two of them would be so lonely that they would end up together. Just thinking about it made her feel cold.
When they reached home, Ling Qiao stopped the car and got off the car. He did not want to say anything else.
Ling Qiao also took a step back. Since what had happened had already happened, he could only face it. If there was a problem, he could only think of a way to solve it.
Ling Qiao walked into the bathroom and had a good bath. Warm water stung his back and when he looked at himself in the mirror, there was a clear claw mark on his back. This was evidence that he had cheated.
After showering, he put on his bathrobe and wrapped himself tightly in it, not wanting to let ShuShu see the marks on his body.
ShuShu was in the kitchen on the first floor. She cooked noodles in the evening, but still hadn't washed the pots and bowls.
As Ling Qiao watched her diligently wash the dishes and clean the kitchen with a duster, he could not help but feel sorry for her. He would rather have her vent as he had when he first got on the bus.
He would sit in the living room and wait for her to calm down, wait for her to finish her work, wait for her to listen to him when she was ready to talk.
What had happened today was truly strange. If he had done it, he would definitely feel it. However, he didn't feel it at all. All he felt was a body full of scratches and kisses. He knew very well how much alcohol he had, and it was not enough to make him so drunk.
Also, he clearly remembered to ask Deng Zijun to send him home, but why did he wake up in a hotel, and also naked in bed with Tang Xiuqing. ShuShu also just so happened to appear at this time.
Everything seemed like a trap.
There were some things that he didn't dare to suspect. Deng Zijun was his most trusted assistant, and all this time, he had always entrusted everything to him, not to mention Tang Thirty-Six. She had grown up together with him, and he understood her temperament the best.
Ling Qiao sat on the sofa with his hands in his hair. He looked at the tourist map under the tea table. They were originally preparing to make up for their honeymoon. It seemed like the honeymoon incident had also failed. He silently took out the tourist map. On it was Shu Shu's route of travel drawn with a colorful pen. Silly girl, search through Baidu. Whenever she heard something interesting, she would go there.
He had missed her so much when she came home today, and he had thought of how she would surprise him when she came back, not only on a trip to Guam but on a wedding photo, with the biggest and most beautiful pictures hanging in front of their bedroom bed and the living room full of happy pictures of them. He wanted to tell her all of this when she came back.
Shushu had been in the kitchen washing and brushing, cleaning the counter and the cupboard, and taking out all the dishes in the cupboard and washing them all. She didn't want to stop.
Ling Qiao looked at the time. It was already one o'clock in the morning and Shu Shu was still cleaning inside. He couldn't sit still any longer, so she took out her phone and called Shen Xiaoxuan.
At one in the morning, when Shen Xiaoxuan had just fallen asleep, her disturbing phone rang. She was so angry that she wanted to smash her phone, but when she saw that it was Big Boss' call, she immediately picked it up, "Hello, Ling Qiao, you're looking for me so late at night?"
"Shen Little Xuan, are you free? "Come to my house."
"Now? But I'm in Taiwan. What is it? Is tomorrow okay? " If it wasn't something important, Ling Qiao wouldn't have called her so late.
Ling Qiao knitted his brows in frustration. "Forget it, let's contact each other again." With that, he hung up.
He wanted to find someone else to help, but he found out that Shen Xiaoxuan was the only person by Shu Shu's side who cared about her.
He stood up and walked slowly into the kitchen. Looking at Shu sitting on the floor wiping the dishes, he said, "It's too late. Take a rest. Don't torture yourself like this, okay?"
Suddenly, Shu Shu's palm slipped and a careless plate fell to the ground. With a crash, it broke into pieces. She hurriedly tried to pick them up. The sharp fragments cut her finger and blood dripped down.
Ling Qiao quickly grabbed her wrist. "Don't pick it up, get up."
Shu Shu was pulled to her feet. She stood up for a long time, but suddenly felt dizzy. She felt like her vision went black, her mind was muddled, and she fainted.
"Wife, Wife …" Ling Qiao embraced her and carefully moved her to the sofa. "Wife, wake up." His heart ached beyond words as he pinched her.
Shu Shu's hands were ice-cold. No matter how she tried to cover them with her hands, they wouldn't heat up.
Shu Shu woke up from the pain. She could vaguely see Ling Qiao's appearance and did not want to open her eyes. She turned her face away from Ling Qiao.
The faint light of dawn illuminated the room. Shu Shu's eyelashes flickered, and she slowly opened her eyes. Her tears had dried up, and her parched throat was filled with a piercing pain. She had no strength left in her body. She knew she was sick.
Ling Qiao reached out to touch the side, but was not by his side. Last night, after he carried her to bed, she had been crying as he let him out. Thus, he had gone out.
After crying for an entire night and thinking about it, the thing she feared the most finally happened. When she finally let down her guard and thought that it wouldn't happen, it suddenly happened.
Happiness was truly a fleeting thing. No matter how hard she tried, she would always slip through her fingers, first losing her mother, then her child, then her husband's betrayal. All of this seemed like a joke from heaven.
