Chapter 382: There is no reason to be conservative about him
January 22nd.
Su Ming always felt that he had forgotten something.
But I can’t tell clearly.
Go to work in the company step by step and save money...why are you here?
Sit down at your desk.
His position is still the marketing director. There is a separate office.
"Master, to be honest, it's time for you to find a girlfriend."
Disciple Xiao Li came in wearing a jacket.
"..."
Girlfriend? It seems that I already have it.
Yes, saving money and working hard are also to fulfill the military order issued by my father-in-law.
Why are you so awesome?
How dare your father-in-law, who is a leader in the materials industry with a personal worth of more than 1 billion, talk about building a company with a market value of 10 million from scratch?
ah.
My father-in-law may find it funny... First, 10 million is nothing to him. The second is that a boy whose annual salary until now being promoted to minister is only 150,000 dares to brag in front of him.
Why are you so brave?
"Master, I'm not joking. Look, you are young and promising now. You don't really plan to be a bachelor for the rest of your life, do you?"
"It will happen naturally in a few years."
"Of course? Hey, how about I ask Xiao Zhang to introduce her best friend from the north to you?"
"No need."
Su Ming looked at the phone.
An Shiyao's name is in the WeChat contacts. I don’t know when she secretly changed the note and changed it to ‘Yao Yao’.
knew.
The reason why I am so courageous is because of this.
She wants her but can't muster the courage... She will never be his girlfriend.
"Really, I'm not kidding."
The apprentice took away Su Ming's tea without ceremony and made a cup. "Xiao Zhang's best friend is pretty good-looking. She comes from a single-parent family. Her father seems to drive a truck... She is an only child. Do you want to see a photo? I'll look for it. Ah.”
"..."
You really don’t need to look.
No matter how good-looking she is, she will never be as beautiful as An Shiyao. What's more, An Shiyao has no boys in her family, so she is considered an 'only child'?
From money, status to life... It is really hard to imagine how you can create a company with a market value of 10 million from scratch.
Isn’t it a bit too weak to just rely on your girlfriend’s favor and father-in-law’s kindness to end it now?
"?"
"Master, have you been taken away from your body?"
"Is this book really useful? One hundred secrets to success?"
"..."
Shut up.
This is pushed by big data.
January 28th.
Su Ming is on vacation, and he can rest for almost two weeks including the annual vacation.
Plan to go directly to Kyoto.
"Why are you going to Kyoto?"
On the phone, my aunt asked strangely.
"Ah, I'm going to pick up..."
Huh?
Who to pick up?
Oh, pick up my girlfriend... No, my mind is confused.
If you take An Shiyao home now, your father-in-law will have objections.
"It's okay, I didn't wake up just now. I'm packing my things now and getting ready to come back."
"Pay attention to safety on the road, and just go slow during the New Year."
Auntie started talking a lot again.
January 29th.
Return to my hometown.
The house has been tidied up by my aunt and others. Why is the room next to mine a utility room?
Well, it’s always been like this, right? After all, I live in my own home.
Had a meal.
A group of unknown or unfamiliar relatives sat around the stove.
Asking for help.
"Xiao Ming must be promising and become a minister."
"I heard that the annual salary is 300,000?"
"..."
I don’t know how my aunt passed it on, but 150,000 yuan changed hands into 30,000 yuan. It’s not easy to slap my aunt in the face, so I can only say implicitly that if the company’s business situation is good, there is a theoretical chance of getting 300,000. But I haven't taken it now.
Subconsciously glance sideways.
Who do you want to talk to out of habit?
I always feel like something very important is missing. Empty.
"Buzzing."
The phone vibrates.
【Picture.jpg】
【Picture.jpg】
【……】
An Shiyao sent messages, all of which were pictures of her celebrating the New Year.
It seems that their family went on a trip. In Shangri-La, snow-capped mountains, horse riding and so on... completely two worlds.
I felt a little inferior for a moment.
To be able to travel with a large family during the Chinese New Year, you have to be middle class to be eligible. But I don't count. Even the minister who was promoted with her help has an annual salary of 150,000 yuan and a monthly salary of just over 10,000 yuan, which is not considered middle class.
【Very boring】
[Next time...you take me to play. May I? 】
But as An Shiyao sent another message, Su Ming smiled unconsciously.
Fortunately, my girlfriend is not someone who thinks about these issues. They won’t ask about their birth or family background. I just simply like myself.
"Hey, Xiao Ming is in love?"
"Let aunt take a look. Do you have any photos?"
"..."
I originally planned to just deal with it, but who knew An Shiyao would suddenly post another normal selfie wearing a snow hat. Just in time to be seen.
"Hey. Come and see, Xiao Ming is amazing... he found a very handsome girl. She looks like a young lady."
"..."
As the aunt also poked her head over, the topic of relatives turned around Su Ming and An Shiyao.
It's a bit embarrassing.
But the feeling of emptiness disappeared. Maybe it's just because I'm used to having her around during this time.
January 29th.
Shangri-La.
My parents and relatives held an impromptu dance party... I had no interest in dancing.
Two years.
It was very difficult to deceive Mr. Su Ming about his abilities, and it was even harder to only see what I wanted to show him. You can only trade with monsters.
Only in this way can we succeed.
I know everything about the other me, whether she knows it or forgets it, I know it.
So, even from a physical perspective...I am no longer human.
But that doesn’t stop me from being genuine.
"..."
Holding the phone tightly, he looked at the message he replied.
[When you graduate, we will join hands to create a company with a market value of tens of millions. 】
[I will show you that the matchmaker is marrying you and take you home. 】
【……】
I'm laughing.
Um.
I'm alive. Moreover, now I can do anything. It can be done.
He held his chin and thought about everything that had happened with Mr. Su Ming so far.
I don't understand the message conveyed by the monster. How can I keep him here by faithfully recreating everything I once had with Mr. Su Ming? I only care a little bit.
If he can live, let him live. There is nothing more to do.
What is Mr. Su Ming's real mission? How strong I become has nothing to do with me.
In the past, it was because I was too obedient and believed too much that I ended up in that miserable state.
This time, I no longer care.
All he knows is that the mission he sees now... must be to capture me. He does it whether he likes it or not.
So far, very smooth. He completely forgot about it and only thought about how to marry me with dignity. Very cute. Isn't it great?
We'll just stay here and I'll give you whatever you want. Whether it is... material or spiritual needs.
"Sister? What are you doing."
"..."
My sister came to my room.
I stared at her face, feeling a little worried for no reason. In my memory...my sister finally died because she went to Island City with me.
"Sister?"
As I hugged her, she looked confused.
"If you like Mr. Su Ming, I will... agree."
"What is sister talking about?!"
"..."
If you take a different path. My sister won't like Mr. Su Ming.
Is it too selfish to leave my sister alone?
If you can be selfish, you can survive to the end. Giving up everything would bring you to your current situation.
No complaints.
I can no longer be the same as before, having gone through these two years...reliving everything that happened. But it will be different from now on.
As long as we don't have the experience of Sea Island City, we will always be together.
If you are interested in my sister... you will find it here too. As far as my sister and I are concerned, it doesn't matter.
I put my hand around my sister's petite back, and some soft, sludge-like substance came out.
"Does my sister already like her brother-in-law so much? Even I have to worry...it's scary."
"I am becoming more and more curious about what my brother-in-law is like."
"..."
That's right.
He would not be interested in his sister here. My sister won't be interested in her either.
That's good. After all, there was no such thing as Island City, and there weren't so many other people behind...if everything was normal.
I should forget when those images don't exist. Just like he forgot about that.
February 10th.
Winter market.
Not long after the new year started, Su Ming went to the company again.
But a new problem arises. I don't know why, but An Shiyao has been so close to her lately... I can't meet in person, so I call her frequently.
Especially when Su Ming was talking about work and serious business with his female colleagues, there would always be calls coming in.
The colleagues in the company said it was okay, but the customers were not very polite. If you don't answer...it will cause trouble again.
[I'm sorry, I'm just... worried that you like someone else. 】
[Shouldn’t I be the one worried? 】
【……】
What are you?
At best, he is a hard-working young man. At worst, they are just invisible passers-by in the crowd.
On the other hand, apart from her appearance and family background, she also has a temperament that cannot be imitated. I am really worried about being with the wrong person and betraying my identity.
[So you and that... the new female colleague from the marketing department, the one who wears flesh-colored stockings every day. 】
[They have been married for four years. 】
[Also, I always ask you for help. Where is the one in the live broadcast room? 】
[That one just graduated, but not as pretty as you...and someone else has a boyfriend. 】
【……】
[Tell me, are you using your authority to view company surveillance? 】
[Hehe, no. 】【……】
[Sorry, I...I just want to see you. Who knew I could get jealous so easily? 】
She has already mentioned this, what else can Su Ming do?
[Don’t end up not building a company, but instead failing to graduate because of insufficient credits. What will my father-in-law think of me then? 】
[No way, I’ve always had straight A’s. I earned enough credits last year. I could graduate without taking classes. 】
February 14th.
Night.
Valentine's Day, it's Friday again.
Of course An Shiyao came.
It always felt like...she suddenly became open. I mean, not so traditional anymore.
I just walked to the back of the dim street lamp, suddenly turned around, my cheeks were slightly blushing, and I closed my eyes.
"..."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
That kind of tiptoe posture, even an idiot knows what she wants.
After a moment, the lips parted.
See her puffing up her face.
"You're willing to kiss me if I do this?"
"...I think you might not like to be too intimate outside."
"Who said that?"
"..."
She obviously said it herself at the beginning that she was a conservative and traditional woman. Can this also make you angry?
"I'm very traditional...but when I miss you, I want to kiss you. I don't care about what other people think."
"Don't you feel this way?"
"...No."
"Humph, then you can sleep by yourself at night."
"..."
Even though I said that, I still haven’t let go of the hands I held when they first met.
February 15th.
Su Ming couldn't straighten up.
He doesn't understand.
Logically speaking, shouldn't men take the initiative and women be passive?
What's more, it hasn't been too long since we just confirmed our relationship with her, and it hasn't been that long since we had sex with her. Is the change too big?
I had already made arrangements to take her out for shopping, art painting, road shows, etc... But nothing was done and all the tickets were wasted.
"Anyway, after watching the show... you didn't want to bring me to do this kind of thing."
She stretched out her hand lazily from under the quilt. Very white, not talking about hands.
"Looking again!"
"..."
What should I do? If the quilt slips, it is impossible not to see it.
"I'm an efficiencyist. I... prefer this to performing."
"That's not like staying in a rental house all day and night, right?"
"I didn't ask you to come over...you just kept going. I'm hungry~ Go order takeout. I want to eat lobster."
"..."
That's quite right.
She just changed from watching movies out to watching them on a tablet in a rental house. I didn’t directly say that I wanted to say something, I just posted it.
Turn watching road shows into watching concert videos, variety shows, etc. in a rental house... I didn't say that I wanted to kiss, but I just waited for the show to end and suddenly wanted to kiss... and then let it take its course.
Should I blame myself for not being moderate enough?
After going outside to get takeout, Su Ming realized that this was definitely not his responsibility alone.
"Ah, open your mouth, look... I'm so considerate and even peel it off for you."
"..."
She held the shelled shrimp meat in one hand and held it underneath with the other hand. The clothes she was wearing, her own clothes were soiled. The shirt Su Ming is wearing... can be seen with the naked eye, Keli from the baby cafeteria.
"Where are you looking at? You are really... a pervert."
"..."
Is there a possibility that my short sleeves can't hold up the balloon no matter what, let alone hide the features.
The room is so big, and her hand is also on her chest, how can we not see it?
"If you really want to watch it, can't you wait until you have a full stomach to watch it..."
She is absolutely responsible.
What are you?
How can I withstand this kind of test after being single for more than 20 years?
February 16th.
The location has changed.
Change it to the house rented by An Shiyao.
"I'll rent it for you. I'll come and stay here occasionally."
"..."
"Otherwise...it will be inconvenient for you."
In fact, Su Ming was already considering changing her house, but she didn't expect to change it first.
As for those who were self-respecting or not, she blushed and looked away.
To talk about self-esteem again would be too damaging to the atmosphere.
"When you come to the winter market from now on, you will have our home."
"Just talk, why are you touching me?"
"Because it's cute."
"..."
It's amazing.
Like I usually talk to my apprentice Xiao Li, are there any worries about money and status? You might feel a little like it when you're chatting, but when you're really getting along with her, you don't feel it at all.
I can clearly feel her love for me.
Just like Keli who started to see changes in the palm of her hand.
February 16th.
Night.
Had a fight with her.
The reason was strange, at least Su Ming didn't understand it.
Just give me a pair of earrings.
"I don't like this, take it away!"
"?"
"Take it quickly!"
It was the first time that I saw a twisted expression on her cheeks.
What happened to the earrings?
Pure silver, very small...not particularly eye-catching, not very plain. At least Su Ming thought it would be beautiful if she wore it. Simple and elegant.
February 16th.
late at night.
Su Ming ran out to choose gifts again. Racking my brain...what should I give when I have a quarrel?
What else can I buy in the middle of the night?
flower?
When the work is done, go back with a bouquet of flowers.
"Where have you been?"
"..."
As soon as I opened the door, I was hugged. Very hard.
"I'm sorry, ugh... I, I have bad memories of earrings."
So that's it.
The one who should apologize should be himself.
"I don't want anything, no gifts..."
"..."
Is this what happens when a couple quarrels?
According to Su Ming's idea, he should give the flowers and give them some coaxing. But it seemed that it was completely useless, and the flowers were covered by the clothes that had been taken off.
"Siyao?"
Don't understand at all.
How could she end up crying and squatting in front of her?
"I'm willing to do this without any gifts. Is it comfortable?"
"..."
Young, but gradually proficient.
I always feel very warm.
Almost subconsciously, Su Ming reached out and touched her ear. Somewhat warm.
"?"
She raised her face still stained with tears in confusion.
"No, I am..."
What do you want to say?
He only saw the face that was apologizing to him inexplicably, and it felt a little awkward.
But I just feel nostalgic, thinking that those small and cute ears have earrings... very beautiful earrings. It sways when crouched in front of you.
"Ears...are they better than here?"
Her hand guided Su Ming's hand to the canteen.
February 17th.
Early morning.
Sitting on the plane back to Kyoto, I stared out the window dully.
After ruffling his hair, the stewardess passing by looked at him in surprise.
"..."
Useless.
No matter how you mess up your hair, your face remains the same. Because it's all me.
The emotion...the memory of this face. Perhaps the easiest thing to make him forget. It's not really a big deal, as time goes by he will forget it more completely.
'accurate'.
Have this feeling.
Even though it was me who was looking at him, the gift he gave me was the gift I received from another person.
I changed to an untied hairstyle. Everything from his demeanor to his clothing changes.
"..."
A strong signal was shared in my head.
What's the meaning?
If you think I can't do it, will you let Mr. Su Ming go back? I won't do that in a cemetery that will be eaten up sooner or later, and I have no obligation to save others.
I have begun to enjoy this completely different life from fear. It is much better than dying alone in the cemetery because of obedience and generosity.
only.
Probably, my original personality is like this... I am easily jealous and jealous. Even if I know, that’s still me.
"Do you need disposable combs and hair ties?"
The stewardess bent down and asked me.
"..."
I nodded and waited for her to get it.
Then look at the face reflected in the window.
This is my new reality. The same people, the same society, the same world. It doesn’t matter if your body is weird or not. He wouldn't know anyway.
What should we do tomorrow?
I really hate having to be so restrained. So, if I were to bring it up, I would say it implicitly and shyly, saying that I don’t like that earring. Will give me something else.
How could it be that just meeting once a week and calling every day would be enough when you have been alone for so long?
Huh?
Why can't I be more proactive? Anyway, from the moment I was determined, the path I took has been completely different. Because I like...it becomes less traditional, so it’s normal to open up earlier, right?
As for the other world, what will happen to the other me has nothing to do with me.
I can no longer be as generous and obedient as before.
I believed Mr. Su Ming, but he didn’t give me a satisfactory answer.
So, just be selfish enough.
ah.
Sure enough, female colleagues in the company should resign.
If he really can't forget it completely, just use the ability of this body to make him forget it completely. What's wrong with not being a simple human being? I'm much better than being unable to do anything. Just forget about unhappy things and unnecessary things. Think of something else.
Hmm.
How can you continue to make him unable to look away when we meet next time?
Just change into the flight attendant's uniform. The reason is curiosity role play. Well, maybe I'm a traditional conservative woman at heart, but then again...there's no reason to be conservative with him. If you want to be satisfied and loved by the person you like, there is no problem.
I like it very much. He glanced at me furtively, reacting but being secretive. Rather... I expect this to happen. That is, it would be nice if I could get close to him after taking a sneak peek without me being too explicit about it.
