Chapter 691 How did he get through the grievances he suffered?
In the bathroom of the sea view villa filled with mist, soft light shines through the dense fog, casting an ambiguous light and shadow.
The water in the bathtub, which was originally at a comfortable temperature, had quietly cooled down at some point, and a slight chill was spreading.
Jiang Chengyu slowly woke up from a state of confusion, and felt as if his head was hit by a heavy hammer, with a swollen and splitting pain. The arm under his body had long been paralyzed and unconscious.
He frowned, and his consciousness gradually returned in a trance. He slowly opened his sleepy eyes, and then he realized that he was in a bathtub.
At this moment, Mu Xiaoji was quietly nestled in his arms, breathing evenly and sleeping soundly, with a trace of blush still lingering on her face.
In an instant, Jiang Chengyu's eyes changed suddenly, and a look of panic instantly appeared on his face.
As if struck by something terrifying, he subconsciously pushed Mu Xiaoji away with all his strength, and with a roar of anger,
A resounding slap was delivered without hesitation, the "slap" sound particularly harsh in the silent bathroom. "Song Chenxi, what did you do to me?"
His voice trembled slightly with anger, as if he had suppressed endless rage that was about to burst out.
Mu Xiaoji was caught off guard by this sudden change. He fell defenselessly on the edge of the bathtub, and a burning red mark instantly appeared on his fair cheek.
His heart was filled with grievance and panic. He quickly raised his hands to cover his cheeks and stammered to comfort her:
"I'm sorry, little monster... uh, no, Jiang Chengyu, I really didn't do anything. You were drunk and unconscious last night and vomited all over yourself. I just wanted to help you clean it up."
Jiang Chengyu's eyes swept over Mu Xiaoji, and he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the eye-catching red strawberries on his neck. There was a faint sense of ambiguity in the air.
He subconsciously looked down at his body, but found no similar marks.
Seeing Jiang Chengyu's eyes on him, Mu Xiaoji seemed to realize something and hurriedly covered the red strawberries on his body with his hands.
With a hint of urgency and panic in his voice, he explained, "I really didn't do anything, Jiang Chengyu, don't be nervous.
It’s just that you’re incredibly strong, and I… was powerless to resist, and then…” Mu Xiaoji’s voice became smaller and smaller, and a hint of shyness appeared on his face.
Jiang Chengyu listened to Mu Xiaoji's explanation, trying hard to piece together the vague memories of last night in his mind.
Gradually, some images flashed in his mind like broken puzzle pieces. He remembered his deep longing for Mu Xiaoji, and under the influence of alcohol, he seemed to have done something inappropriate.
Jiang Chengyu, full of regret, quickly stood up, grabbed the bath towel beside him, wrapped it around his lower body, and hurried out of the bathroom with a slightly panicked pace.
As he walked, he raised his hand and slapped his head hard. He couldn't help but say inwardly: "Hey, drinking really ruined my life. Why did I..."
After saying that, he slapped his head several times in a row, as if trying to dispel the confusion and regret lingering in his heart.
Walking into the bedroom, he didn't even look around. He just grabbed a few clothes from the closet and put them on impatiently.
Then, he hurriedly put on his shoes, his movements a little flustered, and rushed to the door. With a "bang",
The bedroom door slammed shut behind him, and the loud noise seemed to isolate him from everything in the room.
Mu Xiaoji was still sitting in the bathtub, his hands covering his burning cheeks, staring at the closed door with empty eyes.
As the sound of the door closing gradually dissipated in the room, the entire room returned to peace again, leaving only the suffocating silence, as if time had frozen at this moment.
Mu Xiaoji deeply understood the confusing feeling of being slapped in the face while sleeping, which was both innocent and aggrieved.
He reached into the bathtub and groped for his prosthesis, then slowly stood up and sat on the edge of the bathtub. He skillfully reattached his broken right leg and walked to the mirror on the sink.
It is both funny and ironic to see the red strawberries that the little monster has planted on his body in the mirror.
A complex emotion flashed in his eyes, including self-mockery, helplessness, and a bit of unspeakable bitterness.
He slowly reached out, picked up the bath towel beside him, casually wrapped it around his lower body, and walked out of the bathroom with heavy and slightly staggering steps.
In the bedroom, the big snow-white bed emitted a soft glow in the dim light, as if calling him.
He dragged his exhausted body to the bed, reached out, slowly lifted the quilt, and got in.
He lay there quietly, staring at the ceiling with a dull look, and the scene of the little monster's crazy demands last night involuntarily emerged in his mind.
Every movement, every look, replayed before his eyes like a movie, so clear that it was impossible to escape.
However, reality was like a heavy hammer, waking him up from that brief and beautiful fantasy.
After waking up, the little monster's eyes were full of strangeness and anger. He slapped himself without hesitation. At that moment,
He only felt a starlight twinkling before his eyes, and the whole world seemed to have lost its sound at that moment, leaving only a buzzing sound in his ears.
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm his chaotic thoughts. But the memories of the past came flooding back like a tide, completely drowning him.
Once, just because Bai Jinrong left a red lip mark on Jiang Chengyu's cheek, he was overwhelmed by anger and jealousy.
Seeing him atone for his sins, he put on the chains he made, regardless of the biting cold wind.
He came to the swimming pool with the chain, kicked Jiang Chengyu in the butt and threw him into the swimming pool.
He warned harshly: "If you don't wash it clean, you will never come back."
Mother Shen Rou forced Jiang Chengyu to call Mu Xiaoji, lying that Jiang Chengyu was waiting for Mu Xiaoji at the cinema to watch a movie together, but it turned out that she was the socialite daughter of several business owners.
In a fit of rage, Mu Xiaoji tortured Jiang Chengyu indiscriminately in the cozy bedroom of the sea view villa and even bit his lips and tongue.
Jiang Chengyu endured everything silently without complaining, despite how excessive his actions were.
Now Jiang Chengyu just slapped himself, and he felt so wronged. How did he get through the grievances in the past?
As his thoughts tangled as he reviewed the past, the sky gradually brightened. However, Mu Xiaoji lost consciousness and fell into a deep sleep.
As the sun rises, the sunlight gently falls on the courtyard of the Goldsmith Bay Villa. The surrounding area is lush with green plants, and the luxuriant branches and leaves sway gently in the breeze, as if whispering the story of the years.
Dean Guo took steady steps, slowly pushing Song Shijie, who was sitting in a wheelchair, and strolled leisurely along the winding stone path in the yard.
Dean Guo raised his head slightly, looked into the distance with a hint of emotion, and sighed softly:
"Ah, time flies, the kids have grown up, and we old guys are gradually unable to keep up.
Many times, even though I still have many thoughts in my mind, my body can’t keep up with my thoughts. It really feels like I have the will but not the strength to do it! "
Song Shijie nodded in agreement, his eyes showing a hint of vicissitudes, and he said slowly:
"What President Guo said is absolutely right. Take this bidding project as an example. The funding quotation seems to be close to the people and takes the route of the common people.
However, the projects involved are of various types and large scale, and their complexity is enough to overwhelm a company.
If we want to truly get this project off the ground, the capital chain is the first key issue that needs to be resolved.
Although Zidong International has branches all over the world and occupies a place in the global business landscape, and its investment projects are generally stable,
But facing this bidding, if Cheng Yu had not woken up in time and used some tricks, I am afraid we would have missed it!
"Success in the business world is not a matter of luck. Winning in the face of danger requires methods and strategies, as well as sufficient wisdom and skill to gain a foothold in this circle!"
Dean Guo frowned slightly, a trace of worry appeared on his face, and he murmured: "Yu'er has been asleep for such a long time, and the knot in Xiaoji's heart has been suppressed for such a long time.
I once thought that the rest of their lives would be spent in regret and helplessness!"
Song Shijie smiled faintly, a hint of relief flashed in his eyes, and he said slowly:
"I am in this state now, and I can only sigh that it is God's blessing. You know, the relationship within the consortium is complicated.
If it weren't for Cheng Yu's quick decision, no matter how smart and clever Chou Bao was, how could so many experienced veterans in the consortium easily obey the orders of a young kid who was inexperienced in the world?
Over the past month, I have gradually become accustomed to such a leisurely and comfortable life at home."
Dean Guo narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment and said: "When I saw Yu'er this time, I felt that he seemed to be a different person. He was so unfamiliar and cold to Xiaoji.
One can't help but wonder, could it be that he still holds a grudge against Xiaoji for injuring him back then?
Song Shijie took a long breath and said with a firm look, "Cheng Yu is definitely not that kind of person.
If he really hated Xiaoji, he would not have escaped from Jinyang Villa and come directly to me instead.
Furthermore, he was so attentive to Chou Bao, and Cheng Yu played an indispensable role in Chou Bao's outstanding abilities today!"
Just then, Aunt Zhao came slowly from a distance with light steps.
With a gentle smile on her face, she said politely and respectfully, "Master, breakfast has been carefully prepared. Please go back to the restaurant with Dean Guo to eat!"
Song Shijie nodded slightly and responded, "Okay, Lao Guo, let's go eat."
After saying that, Dean Guo gently turned the wheelchair, and the two of them walked slowly along the path towards the restaurant, leaving behind mottled light and shadows and faint echoes of words.
Dean Guo pushed Song Shijie along the path and slowly returned to the restaurant. As soon as he stepped in, he heard Mu Huiying's slightly anxious nagging echoing in the air.
"Xiaoji went out with Choubao yesterday afternoon and hasn't come back yet. Tell me, how can I not be anxious?
You should know that you have just been discharged from the hospital after surgery and your body has not fully recovered yet, so you should rest well.
This kid is so good, I don’t know what he and Choubao are busy with outside. I never see him resting well at home after coming back. Hey, what are these father and son busy with? It really makes me worry! "
The old lady shook her head and said to Xiaoyue beside her: "Xiaoyue, call Choubao right away.
Just tell the old lady that I miss them and ask where they are and ask them to come home quickly."
When Song Shijie heard his mother's nagging, he quickly comforted her softly, "Mom, don't worry about it.
The friends who sent Chenxi back from Los Angeles are here, and Chenxi may be busy receiving them.
Just eat your meal and stop worrying about this and that. The most important thing for you right now is to take good care of yourself. We'll take care of everything else."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiang Xiaowu walked towards the restaurant door with steady steps and a respectful look on his face.
He bowed slightly and said politely, "Good morning, Mr. Song, and good morning, everyone."
Hearing the voice, Song Shijie turned around, looked at Xiang Xiaowu blankly, and asked, "Xiaowu, what's the matter?"
"Mr. Song, Mr. Jiang asked me to come and get some documents to the company." Xiang Xiaowu answered respectfully.
"Where are the others?" Song Shijie asked immediately.
"Mr. Jiang is at the construction site. There have been frequent accidents there recently, so he personally inspects the construction site for safety hazards every day and does not dare to slack off at all." Xiang Xiaowu said truthfully.
"Oh, so go back and tell Mr. Jiang to be careful too. Dean Guo and Mother Mu have come all the way here, tell him to remember to go home and visit.
The document is on the desk in the study, go get it yourself!" Song Shijie said seriously.
"Okay, Mr. Song, I will definitely convey your message." He nodded to Xiao Wu, took three steps back, then turned around and left the restaurant with neat steps, leaving only the gradually fading footsteps echoing in the restaurant.
