MTL - Old Injury-Chapter 26
[Today I met a customer who said that I made the same cake that best suits her taste and praised me for my good craftsmanship. I am so happy. 】
After knowing that this was all a cruel prank by Zhu Li, I tried to explain to Song Bailao even though I was depressed.
But he has already blacklisted my communication method, let alone phone calls, not even a text message.
In a few days, Zhu Li left the country, and I finally didn’t have to stay under the same roof with him anymore. We never saw each other again for seven years.
Although Song Bailao and I are not even friends, I still don't want him to think that I am a despicable person. I managed to get the address of Song Bolao's house and wanted to meet him and talk about that day. Every time I went to find him, his servant would tell me that he had gone out. Once the number of times is more, no matter how stupid you are, you will know that he is deliberately not seeing me.
After a summer vacation, I failed to knock on his door.
This may be fate, and in the end, I had no choice but to give up.
After school started, I was in the third year of high school, and I still went to the rooftop during my lunch break, but there was no one who wanted to eat my snacks.
It's really scary to get used to this stuff, although I'm the only one left, but for a long time, I'll still prepare dim sum for two.
About a month after school started, I opened the lunch box and saw two muffins inside.
I finished eating one silently, and when I picked up the second one, I was already a little full, but I continued to shove it into my mouth, halfway through, and suddenly felt nausea in my stomach, full of spit it out.
At that time, I didn't think too much, I thought I just ate too much, and I didn't go to the doctor.
It had been four months since I first felt something moving in my body.
Zhu Li is really a crow's mouth, just once, I was pregnant.
However, the cold light in his eyes made me understand that his heart was not as calm as it appeared on the surface. This is what I admire about him. He is always decent in front of outsiders, pursues perfection, and is a typical performer.
The old memory is not very good, I just want to get away from him as soon as possible, and never have an intersection with this person again.
Saw a little dark red scar - that's proof he was marked.
Zhu Li frowned, and the coldness in her eyes filled her elegant face.
"What a pity."
His words were endless and questionable, but I was not interested. I found that not far from where I was standing, Li Xun was walking through the stream of people, and I didn't look at Zhu Li, I raised my foot and rushed over.
As soon as I stood still, Li Xun arrived.
"Found President Song, he asked me to take you there."
Let her lead the way, cross the small nine-bend bridge, and we enter an octagonal pavilion built on a pool.
The seats around the pavilion are covered with soft cushions, and the light is a bit ambiguous. There are three people sitting in the corner, all of them familiar faces.
When I saw Zhu Li just now, I wondered if Zhu Yunsheng and Ning Shi would be there, and I saw it now. The couple sat closely together, Ning Shi hooked her husband's arm and leaned over half of her body, while Zhu Yunsheng sat there, discussing something with Song Bailao opposite.
"That's it..."
Seeing me coming, Zhu Yunsheng abruptly ended the conversation and said with a smile, "Xiaoyu is here."
The man who had his back turned to me paused, straightened his back and turned his head.
Our eyes were firmly connected in mid-air, and in the next second, before I could react, Song Bailao suddenly smiled and stretched out his hand towards me.
"How come? I've been waiting for you for a long time."
He seems to have never quarreled, and there is no cold war between us. He smiles like a tender and considerate new husband, doting on his not-so-sensible partner.
After hesitating for a moment, I held that large and warm palm and let him lead me to sit on the sofa.
When I sat next to him, he quietly let go of his hand, and after a while he gently wrapped my waist.
Ning Shi seemed to be drinking some wine, her face was flushed, and she rubbed against Zhu Yunsheng like a clinging and beautiful Persian cat, playing with his cufflinks. When his eyes passed by me, he just swept over indifferently and didn't stop.
She only has her husband in her eyes, and everything else is just an optional roadside weed, harmless but worthless.
Me and Song Bailao, she and Zhu Yunsheng, sitting opposite each other, like projections of each other. The alpha has a casual attitude and masters the sovereignty, while the beta is attached to it, like a pet.
I don't need to please my alpha like Ning Shi, because Song Bailao will not be pleased by my attitude. I don't know whether to call it lucky or unfortunate.
"The sharing of technology will begin after we sign a strategic agreement. At present, Xiasheng is studying and improving new energy batteries. Later, the two companies may jointly form a research group to share results and form a win-win situation. "Song Bailao said, raising the champagne in his hand to Zhu Yunsheng, "It's all my family, I can say anything."
"Yes, yes, my family." Zhu Yunsheng smiled back at him, raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.
While they were talking, by the pool outside the pavilion, a tall middle-aged beautiful woman tapped the round wine glass in her hand with a fork, attracting everyone's attention with a loud voice .
"Thank you for coming today..." Everyone looked over, and beside the beautiful woman was a man in a velvet tuxedo, with silver hair and a beard. He was about sixty years old. Open your mouth.
With such a master-like tone, it is easy for people to guess his identity. This must be the Mr. Senator who organized this charity reception tonight.
And Zhu Yunsheng's subsequent words also confirmed my guess.
"Mr. Fan, this is the last year, right?"
Song Bailao stared at a certain point beside Congressman Fan, squinted and said, "Yes, I can retire and enjoy happiness next year."
Zhu Yunsheng smiled: "It's time to find a successor to take over this game."
In their opinion, today's game is no different from any wine and dinner party. They spend millions every year to earn a charitable name, have the opportunity to make new riches, expand their contacts, and stabilize their position in the circle. ,Why not.
Sometimes business is business, and sometimes business is an opportunity created by man.
My eyesight is not as good as Song Bailao's, so I don't know what he is looking at, but after a while, Mr. Fan finished a polite opening speech and began to get to the point.
"Everyone knows that I am in my late 70s. Although my body is still strong, it is time to retire and enjoy my old age. Next year, I will no longer organize the reception. "He stretched out his hand to introduce to everyone, "It's the responsibility of my little brother who is fully entrusted to me."
One person slowly stepped out of the shadows and stood under the light. He has a noble appearance and a very tall stature.
I finally knew what Song Bailao was looking at, it turned out to be Luo Qinghe.
"Thank you, Brother Fan for looking down on me." He held the champagne in one hand and put the other hand in the pocket of his trousers, his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, "Good evening, everyone, I'm Luo Qinghe, I believe many people Nice to meet me today..."
Song Bailao snorted softly and looked away.
From his reaction, it is not difficult to see that during the cold war between us, his relationship with Luo Qinghe did not warm up.
Song Bailao let go of my hand and said to Zhu Yunsheng, "I'll go outside and smoke a cigarette."
He got up and left without saying a word to me, it seemed that I was a dispensable decoration.
"Have you seen Zhu Li?"
I looked back, Zhu Yunsheng looked at me gently, like an ordinary elder who talked to the younger generation.
"See you." I nodded.
"He's in a bad mood recently, you can have more exchanges." He smiled, "I remember that you had a good relationship before, so don't be separated because you haven't seen each other for so many years."
Ning Shi opened her lazy eyes completely. She looked at me, in stark contrast to Zhu Yunsheng's gentleness, her eyes were full of warning and coldness.
She is warning me to be smart and not to take refuge in the wrong person, otherwise I will never have my good fruit to eat.
In fact, she can rest assured that even if she forces me with a gun, I will have nothing to do with Zhu Li.
"Don't worry." I quickly glanced at Ning Shi. Mingli's answer to Zhu Yunsheng was actually a reassurance for Ning Shi.
Zhu Li and Zhu Yunsheng are father and son in the end, being left out for a while does not mean being left out for a lifetime, especially now that the cooperation between the Zhu family and Xia Sheng has been in full swing. When everything is in order, Zhu Yunsheng will always forget what happened to Zhu Li and reconcile with him. At that time, Ning Shi will only have my trump card.
So she will never let me go easily.
Thinking of this, my heart sank.
Ning Shi said that as long as I am obedient, I will bring Youyou to see me, but how is it "obedient"?
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the pavilion, accompanied by exclamations and screams.
"Beta is the noblest, alpha and omega are just mutated beasts! See your true colors! This world belongs to beta!" A naked body scribbled "long live beta" Somehow the man broke in, holding a bottle of something in his hand, and when the voice fell, he threw the bottle to the ground, and the scattered glass fragments scared all the omegas.
The liquid in the bottle volatilized into mist, and a strong fragrance gradually filled the field.
Someone shouted: "No, it's omega's pheromone!"
Zhu Yunsheng, who was sitting opposite me, stood up suddenly, gritted his teeth and scolded: "These **** radicals!" He glanced at Ning Shi, who was still sitting, "Why don't you go quickly?" A person walked out quickly.
Ning Shi hurriedly got up and ran after her, without even looking at me.
Everyone is reluctant to be the talk of the table after this reception, and let their embarrassed posture fall into the eyes of others. No one cares about anyone. Security guards maintained order against the flow of people, but the scene was so chaotic that many people even had their shoes stepped off.
Li Xun frowned and said, "Mr. Ning, let's go too, we don't know what will happen here."
Her concerns are well-founded. After all, alpha estrus is very dangerous. I don't know if there is anything else in the bottle. Even in an open environment, I don't know what people who inhale those gases will do.
Occasionally there are such extreme beta supremacists, who have completely rebelled in the long-term oppression, and their methods of attacking ao can be called inferior.
I hurriedly got up and walked out with Li Xun, thinking of Song Bailao halfway through.
"Secretary Li, Song Bailao he..."
Before I finished speaking, Li Xun was thrown down by an alpha who came up from behind.
Everything happened in an instant.
Li Xun screamed and resisted. I hurriedly picked up a stone next to me and threw it at the alpha, then pushed him away, and helped Li Xun, who was still in shock, to flee out the door.
I didn't take a few steps when I was roughly grabbed by the hair from behind me. I reluctantly looked back and found that the alpha was still conscious. His face was bloody, his eyes flashed with animality, and he aimed his canine teeth at the side of my neck.
I covered my neck and turned my head, Song Bailao kicked the alpha under his feet with a ghastly face, kicking the man until his mouth and nose bleed, and he was dying.
He was ruthless and merciless, like a lion whose territory was occupied by other beasts, furious and mad.
I was startled and felt that the alpha was going to be kicked to death by him, so I hurriedly stopped him: "Okay, okay! Let's go."
He looked at me with red eyes, breathing heavily and his eyes open, I realized that something was wrong with him.
"I accidentally inhaled some of that stuff..." He swayed and put a hand on his forehead.
I supported him and quickly let Li Xun open the way.
Li Xun was also frightened by a series of incidents, and walked in front with a white face, pushing the crowd away for us.
After finally getting back to the car in the chaos, Li Xun sat in the front row, Song Bailao and I sat in the back row.
Song Bailao was sweating in just ten minutes. I saw that his temples and nose were wet, and worried: "Are you uncomfortable? Do you want to go to the hospital?"
Song Bailao closed his eyes, tried his best to endure something, and squeezed out two words for a long time: "Shut up."
I pursed my lips and said nothing.
By the time he got off the car, Song Bailao was shaking uncontrollably. Li Xun and I worked together to help him to the door of the room.
As soon as he entered the room, Li Xun was ruthlessly pushed out the door by Song Bailao without saying a word.
The door slammed hard, Song Bailao eagerly pulled me and pressed me against the wall, kissing me for the first time.
