"Who is it?" It was my door just now, right? Maybe Cheng Ruojun saw me and Xia Ze hugging each other, but if he really did see me, how could he be so quiet and quiet?
"What's wrong?" Xia Ze asked me, his tone still carrying some confusion.
I looked up at him. His eyes were dark, and he was smiling, but I couldn't see a hint of a smile in them.
Xia Ze's fingertip landed on my face, and he said lightly and coyly, "What are you thinking about? Are you in love with me? "That's good. I love you too."
His face was changing too fast.
"I'm going back." I stagger to my feet. Xia Ze grabs my wrist, and the cold touch wakes me up.
He said he loved me more like a joke, but luckily I wasn't in love with him.
Recalling the similar eyes that Cheng Ruojun and he had just had, I felt fortunate in my heart. I didn't want to repeat the same mistake.
"Jiang Rou..." I had just taken a step when I heard his voice.
I paused, but didn't look back.
"Our previous agreement is still valid." Xia Ze said.
I looked back at him, his whole body bathed in moonlight, his eyes shining, but everything seemed so false.
I hurried toward the bedroom, and I knew what he meant by a promise. He still wanted to be my lover.
I opened the door and walked in. I leaned against the door and stared at Cheng Ruojun who was still lying on the bed.
He was indeed asleep.
He really didn't wake up, right?
I put my hand to my chest and calmed down.
Maybe I misheard.
However...
Even if I hadn't heard wrongly, when Cheng Ruojun really saw me and Xia Ze embracing each other, so what, it was just another round of beating me up. At most, he would beat me to death, and I am not afraid of death.
My heart gradually relaxed, and I broke free from the shackles in my heart.
I slowly walked towards Cheng Ruojun. He was still sleeping, and I heard his breathing.
He had been very quiet, very quiet.
I lifted up the blanket and climbed in. Just as I laid down, Cheng Ruojun's hands hugged me.
I looked over my shoulder. He was still asleep.
I closed my eyes.
Cheng Ruojun, I am not me anymore. In order for you to receive your retribution, I willingly fell into hell.
A dreamless night.
When I opened my eyes, I happened to meet Cheng Ruojun's eyes. He was looking at me from the side, and his eyes were cold.
I looked back at him.
"I will prepare a house for you today." Cheng Ruojun said, "Don't you want to open a company?"
"Yes." I nodded.
Cheng Ruojun's fingertip landed on my hair, and he continued, "However, you haven't even graduated from high school, can you open a good shop?" His cold tone was laced with contempt and a hint of brutality.
"I... It may not be good. " The reason Cheng Ruojun asked that, must be because he had made some arrangements for me.
Cheng Ruojun smiled, it was a smile like a wild beast, he said, "Then you can come to the company first."
"Alright." I nodded.
Cheng Ruojun seemed to have been observing my expression all along, he looked at me with an inquiring expression.
"I'm hungry." He suddenly leaned over me and buried his head in my chest. I couldn't see his face.
"I'll go get Sister Guo." I tried to push him away.
"Xia Ze will go to the internship with you." Cheng Ruojun suddenly said, "This was arranged by Father."
I was stunned. As expected, he saw everything last night.
My body went stiff, but it was just another torture.
Cheng Ruojun raised his head and looked at me. He smiled slightly, like a child, and I thought back to last night when he hugged me and said that he needed me.
I was flustered by his eyes.
"You can tell me if he made a mistake." "No," he said.
I replied with a smile, "Alright."
He was lying, and when I had torn the love between us, I could see him clearly.
"You'll be working with me today." Cheng Ruojun got down from my body and said.
I lay on the bed and looked at his back, which was very straight.
"Alright."
I finally went back to work. After being a housewife for three years, I felt like I was about to collapse.
I picked out a professional suit from the closet, carefully tied up my long hair and put on some light makeup.
I really liked being a housewife before, especially when I was Cheng Ruojun's housewife. I almost didn't need to do anything, but these were also the shackles that bound me.
I don't have money, so I have to reach out my hands and ask Cheng Ruojun for money. Du Lirong also doesn't know how to use me to do anything.
I need a job, I need a career. Even if my income is low, I will continue to do it.
"It's a beautiful day." Cheng Ruojun looked at me from the carriage and said, his tone was very subtle.
"I want to give my colleagues a good impression." "No," I said.
Cheng Ruojun laughed, I can understand him as ridiculing. His current appearance is really the same as Du Lirong's.
I no longer bothered with Cheng Ruojun, but focused on looking out of the window. I did not understand why Cheng Ruojun wanted me to go to the company for an internship, maybe he just wanted to better monitor me.
However... I won't flinch.
The car stopped in front of the company's entrance, and many of the staff members opened up a path for me. Just as I opened the door to get out of the car, Cheng Ruojun grabbed my wrist.
I looked up at him and heard him say, "Sit down."
I didn't dare to move anymore.
At this moment, Cheng Ruojun had returned to his previous cold appearance, and for a moment, I almost thought that the person who kept calling out for me last night was just an illusion.
Cheng Ruojun got off first, and then he came to my side and opened the car door.
He stooped slightly, like a gentleman, but I knew he was the one who was putting on the show, and he had several faces.
"Get out." Cheng Ruojun gently reached out his hand to me.
I nodded and put my hand on his. His palm was warm as always, but my heart was cold.
"Go in." "No," he said.
"Alright." Everyone knows who I am, and how I married Cheng Ruojun. Even if there are new employees who don't know, there will be dutiful old employees who will tell her the truth.
There was nothing good about me but beauty, but my only advantage had faded over time, or perhaps it was sadness.
"Let's go." Cheng Ruojun indicated for me to hold his arm.
I smiled and nodded. I am now the perfect prop for Cheng Ruojun, I saw the envy in the other girls' eyes, it had once appeared in mine as well.
Finally we reached the elevator. Cheng Ruojun still had his arm around me, but his expression had turned ice-cold the moment he stepped into the elevator.
I stared ahead without saying a word.
