Chapter 310 Love and Hate, Both Given Their All

amous brand and wealthy celebrity just moments ago, but now, the entire room was hushed."What's wrong Why isn't anyone talking" Qin Mumumu looked around in confusion.And those who saw her immediately...At night, women naturally sleep poorly. When it was the middle of the night, raindrops tapped on the windowpane, she tossed and turned repeatedly, wanting to force herself to sleep several times.

On the bed, tossing and turning for a good while, but still not a hint of sleepiness.

He yanked open the covers and got out of bed, pacing restlessly by the window barefoot.

She walked into the living room in her robe, barefoot. Turning on the television, she was immediately met with a children's program. She stared blankly for a moment before realizing that it had been ages since she last watched TV.

The television in the living room was being monopolized by that person.

She also huddled on the sofa like that person, watching "The Sheep and the Big Bad Wolf" on the screen. For a while, she was dumbfounded.

The wolf eats the sheep, this is the law of the jungle, she once again doubted her own cognition, and couldn't help but think of that person, he looked at this every day

A slight sound outside the door.

The woman instantly pricked up her ears.

A rustling sound, which lasted for several minutes, made her even more certain that she hadn't heard wrong.

Thief

The moment the thought crossed her mind, she dismissed it. That person had agreed to let her move out of the Shen family's estate because this building had excellent security measures.

But outside... could it be someone's cat, dog, or child

Suddenly, the door swung open.

"... "

At first glance, she was dazed!

Before this, she had never thought it would be him!

My heart skipped a beat.

She just stared at him, for a full five minutes. He also stared straight back at her. Her eyes, they were as calm as could be...but that was just an appearance.

Those tranquil eyes held too much inner turmoil.

Until she saw the pleading in his eyes, her feigned composure shattered and her heart softened suddenly.

He turned and walked back into the house with his head down.

The door, however, remained open.

Without looking back to see if anyone had followed her, she moved slowly forward, taking a bathrobe and towel from the bedroom. When she came out, there was no one in the living room. She looked up and saw the open door. The man stood at the entrance, gazing into the house, his eyes fixed intensely on her.

He walked silently to the door, washed his face with the towel and put the bathrobe in that person's hand.

She then turned back into the house.

As she turned away, she clearly saw the flash of heat in that person's eyes the instant they received the toiletries she had handed over.

"Tong Tong, you're so good!"

Suddenly, a voice came from behind him.

She stood at the bedroom doorway, her breath catching suddenly. Her hand clenched into a fist silently.

He burrowed inside, shutting out the sounds from outside.

The door closed, and she seemed to have lost all her sharpness in a single night, leaning listlessly against the door… Shen Xiujin, what do you want me to… how can I handle this!

Throughout the entire time, the woman never uttered a word to ask why he was at her doorstep, why he had come back again.

Never… at all!

The cell phone was clutched in my hand, the sound of dripping water from the shower filling my ears, maybe... or perhaps it was just the rain outside the window.

She understood it too well, just one phone call and Xi Chen would come to pick her up.

She wouldn't have to face the complex and unclear emotions in her heart.

She doesn't need to hate herself like this.

She knew all too well... it was just a matter of a phone call.

In her palm, unconsciously, the phone was clenched so tightly it was almost crushed. A layer of damp sweat, sticky on her palm, also clung to the phone.

The woman kept her eyes tightly shut... At this moment, no one knew what she was thinking.

Time ticked by one second at a time. Those clear and gentle eyes opened unexpectedly, barefooted, she walked across the floor toward the window. As she passed the big bed, she tossed the phone in her palm away. The phone tumbled through the air for two rotations before landing silently on the mattress.

The phone screen was still lit, displaying the contact list interface. The top number displayed "Xi Chen—", ringing for three seconds.

Pushing open the window, the wind and rain no longer beat against the glass. The scattered raindrops drifted into the house and landed on her face, her shoulders.

This storm, it really couldn't have come at a worse time. She murmured softly.

She stared out the window at the wind and rain, her thoughts racing. So absorbed was she that the "swoosh" of the rain outside her ear, at some point, faded away along with the sound of water dripping from the showerhead in the bathroom, disappearing like a ghost.

After an unknown amount of time, a faint noise behind her startled her awake. She instinctively turned her head and was slightly taken aback to find the door open, with a dark figure standing in the doorway.

She also felt, perhaps it was an illusion, that the man had already been standing there for a long time.

They were now like a couple in a seven-year itch marriage, with nothing left to say to each other.

It is indeed... speechless.

She turned around, holding her blanket, and walked out.

As she passed the doorway, a searing iron hand clamped down on her.

"Tongtong, where are you going"

His voice was low and trembling with fear as he asked.

But at the moment she heard these words, she almost couldn't help but let out a soft laugh... how ironic.

That person was startled, snatched the blanket from her hand, and pushed her into the room. "Bang," Tongtong closed the door: "Axiu sleeps in the living room."

A silent night.

In the early hours, life remained unchanged, monotonous and predictable.

The door opened, and the aroma of food wafted into the living room. The woman, without a word, tidied her appearance and sat in her usual spot, quietly eating.

That man spoke less, but the woman could clearly feel the burning intensity and focus of his gaze on her head.

As soon as they looked up, their gaze met the man's dark eyes. The tenderness in those eyes caused them to quickly avert their gaze and pretend to be engrossed in their meal.

She scoffed inwardly... Just that one look, and under its gaze, she crumbled.

At the moment she stepped out, she turned back at the doorway and, with solemn gravity, addressed the man inside who was as innocent as a child:

"Shen Xiujin, you need to get well soon."

That person was stunned for a moment, then suddenly raised a smile. "Hmm! What did Tongtong say, Ah Xiu will do anything! Ah Xiu will definitely try his best to get better."

Though the sunshine was warm, Jian Tong found it to be intense and piercing.

It's not that time flies.

She and he, seemed to enter a strange kind of tacit understanding.

Another month has passed. Hearing that Bai Yu's business in Italy is nearing its end, he stirred up some trouble again. According to Bai Yu's account, it wasn't a major issue, but it would still take some time to resolve.

Jian Tong, after hearing this, just smiled and said to Bai Yu, "I almost thought you were lying to me. You were actually in Italy picking up girls and having a blast. Having too much fun to think about anything else."

Bai Yu walked up to the phone and jokingly said to her, "Le No. Si Shu."

"Then come back quickly." Jian Tong's voice held a hint of imperceptible coldness.

At first, Jian Tong thought that her collaboration with Kane would definitely end badly, but after a month of waiting, the collaboration continued. However, Kane had completely disappeared from her sight.

The cooperation has entered the second phase.

It is intended that the representatives of both parties meet again to discuss the specific details of the operation and confirm some of the details that were discussed previously.

This afternoon, Vivian knocked on her office door. The door opened, and she ushered in an acquaintance.

Mr. Lu, I hope you are well.

When Lu Chen arrived, she was still thinking about the cooperation between the two parties entering the second stage. She wondered if she should make another trip to the subsidiary company under his name.

Unexpectedly, Lu Chen brought a letter.

Looking at the envelope with light blue ink and flower patterns, it was unsigned and unaddressed. The surface of the envelope was bare. With a slight glance at Lu Chen across from her, the woman's clear eyes flickered. She reached out and opened the envelope.

A letter, floating gently from the envelope.

A powerful script, written in bold letters:

"Yours sincerely," by Jian Tong.

She silently finished reading it, then reached out to Lu Chen: "Do you have a lighter"

"What are you doing" Lu Chen asked, throwing a lighter over as he spoke.

Click —

The flame leaped down, the paper catching fire.

Lu Chen's face changed, but he didn't say a word.

He took a deep look at the woman across from him. The firelight reflected on her face, casting strange and confusing shadows.

"Just burned like that" His low voice, in the silent room, echoed softly.

"Or what" the woman countered.

Lu Chen was stunned... Yeah, what else

"...When a woman turns cold..." He thought, and everyone understood.

The woman across from him slowly lifted her head:

“It’s burned, that’s what he meant,” she said. “And I quite agree with him.” So, in the end, she burned the letter.

"He's actually a good guy. Believe it or not, I've never seen him care so much about anyone."

"I believe," the woman said softly.

Lu Chen didn't expect her to answer so decisively. He stared deeply at the woman across from him for a long time before withdrawing his gaze: "I am entrusted with a task and must complete it faithfully. Now that I have finished, I should leave."

"Here you go."

Lu Chen's arrival was very brief. He went in and out in less than ten minutes, but in that short time, he accomplished what needed to be done.

His arrival was like a stone dropped into a still lake, causing only slight ripples that quickly vanished.

The woman walked back to her desk, the letter on the ground now reduced to ashes.

She called the front desk: "Please send someone to clean up."

Just, staring at the gray ashes on the ground, she was stunned for a long time: Kane, I am not your Queen. I'm just a walking corpse, corrupted from the inside out, wandering in this mortal world.

Lu Chen had just walked out of the Jian family building, took out his phone and dialed a number. "She burned it," he said. Yes, he knew she burned that letter, it was Kane's meaning.

On the other end of the phone, it was terribly quiet.

Lu Chen added mercilessly, "Without hesitation. Not a single second."

A light laugh came over the phone. "Just like her style,"

What's the style

She wants it, she'll go all out. She doesn't want it, she'll still go all out.

Lu Chen's face was slightly stern: "You know her so well, how come..."

"No, you're wrong." Kane said calmly over the phone, "I just figured out what kind of woman she is.

"

Whatever she wants, or doesn't want, she goes all out for it. She makes a very clear distinction between what she loves and what she doesn't. I don't even stand a chance.

No, it's not just me, no one has a chance.

She loves what she loves.

What she doesn't love, is what she doesn't love.

You won't even have the chance to be ambiguous.

How heartless

Kain said, "But all of this, I only fully realized and understood it just at that moment."

Just then

At what moment

Lu Chen fell silent, he understood, Kane's "that moment" was the moment Jian Tong burned the letter without hesitation.artment, Jian Tong was like an odd duck, but even so, she still sat quietly in the corner, waiting, perhaps for a wealthy patron with unusual tastes. 。"Jian Tong, come out " 。The manager of public re...
