Perhaps, only in this office would he dare to call her name without any scruples, without thinking about anything. However, when he walked out of this office, he had to put on a mask.
He thought that he did not have to worry about anything in City A, but in the end, he realized that she was his weakness. The love that he could not part with, he could not bear to let her suffer even a little. But he knew that the more he loved her, the more he would put her in an impossible situation. At least, before he had the ability to completely protect her.
Du Anran felt Xin Zimo's burning gaze, but she still buried her head in her work without saying a word. She did not know how to respond to him and call him CEO Xin For so many days, ever since he said that night, "you can only be my, Xin Zimo's, woman, even if you're my lover, " there had been a stone blocking her heart. Yes, she could only be the lover of a man who had made her fall into the abyss for the rest of her life... ...
Lover, these two words carried great irony.
Xin Zimo did not receive a single response from her. After so long, it turned out that she still could not forgive him. But at this moment, as a man who had worked hard in the business world for so many years, he suddenly felt very tired. He just wanted to sit beside her and look at the snow outside the window with her.
The snow was still falling. It fell on the grass downstairs, on the construction site, and on the umbrellas of the pedestrians. The Sky was still gray, and the north wind was getting stronger and stronger. It carried the snowflakes and hit the window.
The snow flew like Willow Catkins. In a short while, the entire field of vision was covered in white. This was the first snow of this year, and it was sprinkling everywhere, unbridled and ostentatious... ...
With this thought in mind, he walked to her side, circled behind her, and wrapped his arms around her waist. "Will you accompany me to watch a snow show... "
Du Anran instinctively trembled. His hands were ice-cold, and when they touched her fingers, a chill swept over her. The moment she lowered her head, the diamond ring came into view, and she could not help but think of the video from that morning... ...
She... ... And the woman in the video .. There was no difference... ...
A wave of pain passed through her heart, and the words "lover, " "mistress, " and "girl" appeared in her mind. Her nerves were pricked, and she almost stood up. She pushed him away.
"Don't touch me! "
She was like a frightened deer. Her eyes were filled with confusion and tears.
Xin zimo looked at her helplessly. He seemed to have understood something and lowered his hand weakly. He was really tired today, but she still rejected him as usual.
At this moment, he thought, even if he owns the entire city a, so what... ...
Du Anran also realized that her reaction was too intense. She composed herself, lowered her head, and sat back down.
"Do you also believe that the person in the video is me? " Xin Zimo asked calmly. It turned out that she already knew, and he still wanted to hide it from her.
Du Anran lowered her head and shook her head after a long while. "I don't know. " She recalled the scene of him and Chi Xue having an intimate moment that night. Even if the video was fake, what she saw with her own eyes that night was definitely real.
She also felt very uncomfortable, a kind of discomfort that couldn't be explained.
She didn't know... ... These three words gave Xin Zimo a great sense of desolation Trust was really like a piece of paper. Once it crumpled, it could never be restored to its original state ...
Xin zimo walked back to his seat in embarrassment. In the past, he would have pestered her, but today, his heart was very tired.
He did not say another word to Du Anran. He sat in front of the computer and flipped through the documents. The office was quiet, and he could even hear the sound of their breathing.
The snow outside the window was endless, and it was getting heavier and heavier. It looked like it was going to turn into heavy snow.
Du Anran also knew that she had overreacted. She secretly raised her head and looked at Xin Zimo's back from behind. She did not know if he was angry or not. She sighed. Anyway, she had never seen through him.
Not long after, Sun Ping called and told Xin zimo that the hotel video had long been destroyed and there was no trace of it. As for the change of the Xin group's video, it was probably premeditated since a long time ago because the information from the computer showed that the unbearable video had been set up in the computer. However, it was still unknown when it was changed.
Xin Zimo held his forehead and frowned. In other words, there was no clue and there was no way to investigate.
Since the Xin Corporation had built up countless enemies, countless people wanted to frame him, Xin Zimo. The drug incident from last time was never solved, and this time, the video incident happened again. Although he was not sure if it was the same person who did it.. But he could vaguely feel that the Xin Corporation was in danger.
It was probably because he was too tired. Xin Zimo thought for a while and fell asleep on the table.
Although the heater was turned on in the office, the weather was still cold. Du Anran found a shirt from the office and put it on him. Xin Zimo, who was sleeping soundly, no longer had his usual domineering and domineering manner. Instead, he was more gentle.
Once upon a time, du Anran quietly looked at him in his sleep. At that time, he was the same as now. He had a handsome side face, slightly furrowed brows, and long eyelashes. He must not have known that when he was sleeping, the corners of his lips were slightly raised. He was not like him when he was awake. He was cold and heartless... ...
All of this made du Anran involuntarily think of the happy times they had spent together in those two years. But now that she thought about it, he probably smiled more or less willingly.
She put her clothes on him and walked back to her seat, but she could not calm down. Her heart felt like it was being stabbed by a knife.
She was not in the mood to continue working, so she could only stand up and walk to the window to look at the snow. Outside the window, it was already a world of glass. It was a world of silver, white, and jade. It was beautiful beyond belief.
He had just said that he wanted her to look at the snow with him.
It had been a year since they looked at the snow together. In the past, she had pestered him to accompany her, but now, she had changed her position, but her mood had also changed.
When it was almost time to get off work, Du Anran originally wanted to leave alone, but she saw that Xin Zimo had not woken up yet. Perhaps he was too tired, so du Anran did not wake him up and quietly accompanied him to continue working overtime.
However, when it was past eight o'clock in the evening, Xin Zimo still did not show signs of waking up, so du Anran tried to wake him up.
"CEO Xin, CEO Xin... "
There was no reaction.
Du Anran touched his arm, and it was actually boiling hot. She touched his forehead, and it was the same, as if it was on fire. Du Anran panicked. She quickly called Sun Ping and helped Xin Zimo up in a flurry.
"Wake up, can you hear me? " Du Anran helped him up, but there was still no response.
His forehead was still burning hot, and she was praying for Sun Ping to hurry over. She was anxious. Other than the surgery, this was the first time she had seen Xin Zimo so weak. How much did he not care about her, and why did he torture her into this state.
Fifteen minutes later, Sun Ping rushed over. He immediately saw Du Anran, who was helping Xin Zimo sit on the SOFA. He quickly helped Xin Zimo down the stairs and sent him to the hospital.
After completing all the hospitalization procedures at the hospital, Sun Ping Taught Du Anran a lesson for the first time.
"How did you take care of CEO Xin Do you really think that you're doing nothing just because you're hired with a monthly salary of 500,000 yuan You're staying in the same office with CEO Xin, and you don't even know that he has such a big fever CEO Xin treated you well, how did you repay him Even I can't stand it anymore The last time CEO Xin fell into the water and brought his illness to work, his body was not as good as before, but you gave him the cold shoulder as if nothing had happened. "The day before yesterday, you had stomach problems. He took care of you until the wee hours of the morning. Have you ever cared about his health? "
Sun Ping lectured Du Anran in front of everyone in the hospital. He really did not leave any face for du Anran.
"I'm sorry... " Du Anran lowered her head and looked up at Sun Ping for a moment. "But I don't owe him anything. "
Sun Ping was stunned. 'Do I owe him anything or not? ' The two of them had settled their accounts so clearly. was there still anything called feelings between them They were probably not even friends... ...
"Xin Zimo's family member, come and sign your name! " A nurse walked out.
Sun Ping glanced at Du Anran, but du Anran did not move.
"Xin Zimo's family member, come and sign your name! " The nurse shouted again.
"Are you coming or not? " Sun Ping ordered Du Anran with a bad attitude.
"Me? " Du Anran pointed at herself and shook her head. "I'm not his family member. " Du Anran thought that Sun Ping had really been with Xin Zimo for a long time. Even his tone of voice was becoming more and more like Xin Zimo's.
"there are only the two of us here. You can do as you see fit! " Sun Ping Sat on the bench in the corridor without caring about anything else. He looked as if he had nothing to do with the matter. Of course, being sick was not something that could be done in a hurry.
"Is Xin Zimo's family member here? The patient needs to go through the hospitalization procedures. Please come over and sign the form as soon as possible! " The nurse probably saw that no one was coming. She shouted and stopped talking. She buried her head into the form.
"I... I'll sign... " Du Anran walked forward and whispered. Her voice was even lower than a mosquito's ...
The nurse saw that someone had finally arrived. She took out a few sheets and handed them to Du Anran. "May I ask who are you to the patient? "
"I... " Du Anran could not answer. Her hand that was holding the sheets stopped there. She did not know whether to accept it or not.
"Madam! " Sun Ping, who was on the bench, shouted without raising his head. His voice formed a loud echo in the corridor.
Du Anran wanted to defend herself, but when the words were about to come out of her mouth, she was glared back at by Sun Ping.
"Oh, okay! Please fill out these two forms and show me your valid identification card, " the nurse said with a smile.
Du Anran quickly took out her identification card. In a flurry, she finally completed the hospitalization procedures for Xin Zimo. During this time, she had been trying to call mother Xin, but she was interrupted by Sun Ping.
"If you don't mind Mrs. Xin Seeing you, you can call her, " Sun Ping said indifferently.
Du Anran's hand that was holding the phone hung down again. Yes, if mother Xin came over now, how would she explain the reason why she was in the hospital.
"But he's in the hospital now. We can't keep it from the Xin family... " Du Anran said.
"You take care of President Xin tonight. I'll arrange the other things! " Sun Ping said calmly.
"I... " Du Anran wanted to say something, but she hesitated. In her heart, she still couldn't accept Xin Zimo again.
"Don't say that you'RE UNWILLING! " Sun Ping's attitude tonight was very unfriendly. He targeted Du Anran everywhere. "If you dare to say the word 'No' , I'll throw you down the stairs immediately! "
Although du Anran knew that Sun Ping was bluffing her, she also knew that Sun Ping was loyal to Xin Zimo. She nodded slightly. "I'll try my best to take good care of him... "
She could not guarantee that if Xin Zimo woke up, they would not quarrel again. Although she had already convinced herself in her heart to go along with her, she could not help but feel uncomfortable when she thought of her awkward identity.
Sun Ping did not say much and followed the nurse to get the medicine and go through the procedures. Leaving du Anran alone outside the ward, the spacious corridor was exceptionally quiet.
Du Anran pushed the ward door open. The Ward was filled with the strong smell of medicine. In the spacious ward, Xin zimo lay quietly on the bed. She walked over and sat at the head of his bed. She touched his forehead again. It was still very hot.
She covered him with the blanket and looked at the drip in the bottle. It turned out that even someone as strong as him had such a weak side. He must not want others to see him like this. He was a person who cared about his reputation.
The snow that night was very heavy, and the streets were covered with a thick layer of snow. The Ward was a monotonous white color, and the outside of the ward was also a monotonous snowflake color. For the first time, du Anran felt that White was not so beautiful. She asked someone to send a large bunch of blue enchantresses to the ward.
Xin Zimo did not tell her what flowers he liked. In fact, during the two years they spent together, he rarely told her what he liked. She knew almost nothing about him.
So later, when she saw him smoking and seeing him interacting with the people on the bed, she was slightly surprised. She really did not know him.
Now, she really didn't know what flowers to buy, so she asked for a bunch of her favorite blue enchantress.
It was a surprise to see such a beautiful blue enchantress in this season.
She sniffed the fragrance of the flowers and placed the bouquet on the cabinet by the bedside. The delicate fragrance filled the air, and the ward suddenly became lively.
There were only the two of them in this quiet ward. It was just like when she was in the hospital, he had accompanied her. Du Anran never thought that after the fall of the world, they could still live together peacefully in the same room.
He hated her, and she hated him. What kind of happy ending could two people who hated each other have... ...
Du Anran's lips curved into a pale and bitter smile. In the past, she had also loved him so much.
The night at the hospital was exceptionally quiet, especially in this high-class Ward. There was not a single noise to be heard. Du Anran was afraid of the night, and she was even more afraid of the night at the hospital. However, at this moment, there were no more people to accompany her, and not a single Xin zimo would hug her and say, "don't be afraid, I'm here. ".
Du Anran sat by the bed and quietly looked at Xin Zimo. She thought, how can I see a person clearly? And a person, how can I unreservedly give up my heart... ...
She had also honestly given a heart to a person, completely, completely. However, that person did not cherish it at all. He cut a few wounds on it and sprinkled salt again and again. Therefore, she was afraid. She thought, would she never dare to give her heart to a person in this lifetime... ...
