Chapter 207: Let Me Keep You Company For a Drunken Night
s go find them."Several women with heavy makeup headed to the sixth floor.Jian Tong had pleaded with everyone she knew, but to no avail. Disheartened, she returned to the public relations department'...Even though it was an infuriating statement, Shen Xiujing stood on the steps with his dark eyes fixed on the man at the doorway who sneered. He remained silent for a long time.
The atmosphere was eerily silent, like the stillness before a storm.
Wang Guantang had a thought he wanted to avoid, his steps as heavy as a thousand pounds, like a nail hammered into the ground, unable to be lifted.
Secretly blaming Xiao Heng for being too impolite as a guest, at this sensitive moment, after serving as a housekeeper for many years, he had never seen anyone who specifically chose the timing and personally came to provoke him.
"Where do jokes come from As long as the Shen family is still standing, with a stomp of their foot, City S will tremble."
Xiao Heng sneered, "Well well, even if the Shen family doesn't fall, Shen Shi is still the dragon head. Don't say stomp your feet, even a sneeze could shake the whole S City." He smirked provocatively, "But you, Shen Xiuqin, can't even keep your wife! Hahaha, let me laugh for a while. The domineering and decisive Young Master Shen can't even keep his wife, who in S City isn't watching your joke"
Wang Guanta was so angry he wanted to rush forward and cover Xiao Heng's mischievous mouth.
The atmosphere grew even quieter, almost to the point where a pin could be heard dropping!
Xiao Heng's smile was infuriatingly unsettling. Even Wang, the steward who was privy to his antics every day, felt a twitch in his fist. He cautiously glanced at the man on the stairs and muttered under his breath: "This isn't good."
When the atmosphere was tense, a soft chuckle broke the silence. Everyone in the room was taken aback. Xiao Heng looked towards the source of the laughter, his eyebrows betraying his surprise... Had he gone blind or just not woken up Was Shen actually finding humor in this situation
Shouldn't you get angry and punch him
Shouldn't we give him a good thrashing
However... laughter
Could Mr. Shen have gone crazy
"You're supposed to laugh at me. You're right, I can't even keep the people I like."
"…" Really crazy! … Xiao Heng was instantly dumbfounded after hearing Shen Xiujin's sudden words… He came to watch Shen Xiujin make a fool of himself, but not like this!
The whole city of S is laughing at me. Should I watch Yes! The person I like has been by my side for so long, yet I let go of the future we could have had.
In this world, the most pitiful thing is not 'never having had it', but 'should have had it'.... In this world, is there anyone stupider than me"
The man on the stairs said with self-deprecating humor. That kind of sadness, it was suffocatingly oppressive.
Xiao Heng fell silent, all the mockery and pride from before vanished. "It's not just you."
Just three simple words, yet they held an immeasurable amount of regret.
"Stupid people, there are more than just you!" And him too!
He turned his head and said to Wang, the butler whose presence was already very low: "It's hard work for you to take a trip. Help me get the things from the trunk." As soon as he finished speaking, the car key landed parabola-like in Wang's palm.
In a while, Wang the steward came over carrying a rectangular wooden box: "Mr. Xiao, is this it"
"Just give it to me."
Xiao Heng took the rectangular wooden box, expertly opened it, and lifted up the bottle inside. "Come on, Shen Xiuqin. Have a drink" He said, a wry smile creeping onto his face. "I'm not here to mock you." Mock Shen Xiuqin What standing did he have Wasn't he just another joke himself
“I’ll keep you company, let’s get drunk!” he said. “We’re all the same, we all think we’re something special, we all hold ourselves high, but we forget to look back at the person behind us, to look into our own hearts and see who makes them beat so wildly.”
Then, we all hurt the women we love deeply, and in the end, we are destined to lose them.
Shen Xiujin looked at Xiao Heng for a long time, shook his head: "I, I'm not like you." He glanced at the red wine in Xiao Heng's hand: "I don't need to get drunk to solve thousands of worries, and I won't drink this glass with you."
Xiao Heng's heart moved, and he eagerly said: "Shen Xiuqin, don't you think that a broken mirror can be rejoined Don't you think that woman will look back"
You don't know her at all!
She is humble, but strong-willed and resilient!
Even if you, Young Master Shen, are unwilling, she can just disappear without a trace right under your nose, can't she
You say she is your wife, but Shen Xiujin, the 'wife' you speak of, to her, is just one of countless reasons for enduring silently. She merely made compromises for the day she could leave!
Does she really want to marry you
Does she really want to be by your side
Shen Xiujin, you're really laughable! Even now, you're still daydreaming, thinking she'll become that person she once was, loving you
Xiao Heng didn't know if he was trying to convince the other person, Shen Xiuqin, or himself.
His speech was getting faster and faster, his voice becoming more and more shrill. He probably didn't even realize the panic churning within him.
Shen Xiujin only glanced at Xiao Heng: "I don't know if I understand her or not, but I understand myself, Xiao Heng, and you and I are different."
Xiao Heng inexplicably became angry: "She's already left! You can't find her at all! Hua Xia is so vast, how could you possibly"
“Wherever my feet can reach, in my lifetime, I, Shen Xiujin, will visit every place, one by one, until the day I can no longer walk,” His dark eyes grew even deeper and more profound, fixing on Xiao Heng’s face, his thin lips moved slightly, “Then I shall rest.”
Xiao Heng's face suddenly paled!
Staring fixedly at the man on the steps, she looked for a long time before suddenly letting out a bitter laugh. "You will definitely fail!"
Shen Xiujin ignored him and said to Wang Butler faintly, "Butler, see the guest off."
Xiao Heng's face was pale, he lowered his head and looked at the ground. Under Wang Guanjia's "polite" gaze, he walked out. Just as he was about to walk out of Shen Xiuqin's line of sight, the man on the steps behind him moved his eyes slightly, "Xiao Heng, there is a truth you don't understand. Because she is my wife, not yours. Because she endured for leaving, and it was I, not you, my choice and yours are different."
After saying that, he ignored Xiao Heng and turned to walk up the stairs.
Xiao Heng swayed a bit until he sat in the driver's seat, his expression still dazed... Because they were different, they chose differently... Hmph, hmph, hmph, hmph~
Close your eyes, a single tear slid down. Jian Tong, was it because of this So, in this story, there has always only been Shen Xiu Jin and Jian Tong, no Xiao Heng, right
He opened his eyes, looked at the red wine in his hand, and a sneer appeared on his face: "What am I here for today" At first, he said he was here to mock Mr. Shen. Later, he said that he and Mr. Shen were in the same boat, both having made mistakes, and came to keep Mr. Shen company for a drunken oblivion.
And now
Xiao Heng stared blankly at the wine bottle in his hand... He asked himself, what was he doing here todayke this clear upfront, if you spout nonsense pretending to be Wei Ming's secrets, don't blame me for breaking the agreement."Jane nodded eagerly:"Wei Ming once cried red-eyed and told me, "Uncle Xia,...
