Chapter 2071 Still (1)
The craziest thing Shang Qiqi had ever done in his life was when he was 20 years old, drinking to strengthen his courage, entered Shang Qingmo’s room.
Before was thrown off the bed, she was slapped **** the face.
When was thrown out of the bed, a sound of “sick” smashed into her eardrum.
After was thrown off the bed, Shang Qiqi clearly realized that a heart was shattered to pieces, and beneath her **** body was the dregs of dignity that had long been crushed by herself.
The condensed air in the room had a suffocating depression.
Shang Qiqi put his hands on the ground, the scattered hair almost covered up her drooping hair, and she couldn’t see the slightest expression on her face.
“Am I really not good enough?”
She opened her mouth, there was no crying or trembling in her imagination, she was very calm, her voice did not rise and fall, and there was no turbulence.
Shang Qingmo was wearing dark blue pajamas, sitting on the sofa by the window at this time, holding a cigarette in his hand, the blue and white smoke did not blur the coldness on his face.
“Do you still know who you are?”
Shang Qiqi moved and nodded lightly, “Shang Qiqi, granddaughter of grandfather, your niece.”
“Knowingly committing a crime? Are you still shameless?”
The hands that were on the ground slowly clasped together.
“Just in name, right? I have no blood relationship with you, I’m just the granddaughter recognized by my grandfather.”
Shang Qingmo pressed the cigarette **** in his hand on the small coffee table next to him, his eyes narrowed dangerously.
“Shang Qiqi, over the years, the Shang family has given you more than just ‘just’, even if it’s just a name, your surname is still Shang.”
“Don’t play those tricks for me that can’t be put on the table, you’ll look at me too stupid. I advise you to put away your mind as soon as possible, or get me out of Shang’s house.”
Shang Qiqi sat on the ground, looking at his trembling hands, unable to move.
Those tricks that don’t work on the table, he said this more than once.
She is indeed playing tricks. Ever since she accidentally got too close to another boy and scolded him, she thought it was because of jealousy.
So later he repeated the old tricks, and in exchange, he repeated the “little tricks that could not be used on the stage” again and again.
He knew that, and in his eyes she was just a childish, jumping around all day, a self-righteous clown.
“Get out!”
Shang Qingmo wrapped his angry voice like a heavy lead and fell towards her.
’s dry eyes flashed fiercely, she nodded lightly, almost exhausted all her strength, and stood up from the ground.
went all the way to the door before she paused.
“The Shang family has given me a lot. I am very grateful to the Shang family, to my grandfather, and to you. I am so grateful that I can repay it with my whole life willingly.”
Shang Qingmo’s voice was still terrifyingly cold, “I don’t need you to repay in this way.”
“I know.” Shang Qiqi almost interrupted him, “I never thought about repaying in this way.
Shang Qingmo didn’t speak again, Shang Qiqi stayed for a few more seconds, then stepped out of the room with the door frame, and closed his door.
Returning to the room, Shang Qiqi sat on the bed with his hands on the edge of the bed at both sides of his body, looking at her bedroom.
Every corner and even every ornament is full of luxury.
Thinking of her as an orphan, she did not end up in an orphanage. Instead, she was taken here, and she was treated as a serious daughter since she was a child.
After all, she is too greedy,
Thinking of the reaction of the man next door tonight, she was somewhat avenged.
She took a deep breath, and even though she raised the corners of her lips forcefully, grabbed the bedsheet and stretched her body tightly, telling herself that she should not have the right to be wronged and sad to cry, but the tears were still not restrained.
The corners of the lips that had been trembling finally collapsed.
Forget it.
I don’t know how long she cried, and in a daze, she forced herself to go to the bathroom and put cold water on her eyes for a long time.
She didn’t wake up until the servant knocked on the door the next day.
“Miss, it’s time for breakfast, or you’ll be late for school.”
Even without looking in the mirror, she could feel that her eyes were still swollen.
took out the small mirror from the bedside drawer and looked at it. She was silent for a few seconds before saying:
“I’m not feeling well. I’ve asked for leave from my tutor, so I won’t go to school today.”
The servant hurriedly said: “What’s wrong with the little miss, do you want me to ask the housekeeper to ask the family doctor to come and take a look for you?”
“No, I drank a little bit of wine last night, and my head hurts a little. I’m very sleepy now. Let’s talk about it when I wake up.”
“Okay, I get it, your lady, please rest first.”
The servants went downstairs, and both Mr. Shang and Shang Qingmo were in the dining room.
“Master, the little miss is not feeling well today. I won’t go to school today.”
“Uncomfortable?” Shang Yekun frowned, “Where is it uncomfortable? Why don’t you call a doctor to see it?”
The servant replied: “I said that I drank a little wine last night, I had a headache this morning, and I wanted to sleep more.”
“Drinking?” Shang Yekun’s eyes widened, and he looked up at Shang Qingmo with dissatisfaction, “Why are you acting as an uncle? Don’t ask anyone to watch?”
Shang Qing ate breakfast without changing his face, “It’s 20 years old, it’s okay to drink some wine properly.”
“You…is that appropriate? This is all a headache!”
Every word of the old man is partiality and favor to Shang Qiqi, and Shang Qingmo is not surprised by this.
“That’s when you can practice your drinking, and you can protect yourself when necessary.”
Shang Yekun was silent for a few seconds, but his expression changed slightly, “…In short, you give me a good look at her, she is still young now!”
“Um.”
His indifferent attitude made Shang Yekun’s face darken a bit, “She’s at this age, and it’s the easiest time to go astray, I’ll ask you to give Qiqi a snack, if something happens at other times, no one can undo it! “
“I know.”
Shang Qing frowned slightly, a layer of impatience appeared in his indifferent eyes, put down his chopsticks, got up and picked up his coat and left.
Hearing the sound of the car outside starting and moving away, Shang Yekun picked up the chopsticks and asked the housekeeper beside him with a sullen face.
“what happened?”
The butler stepped forward and said respectfully, “The young lady entered the young master’s room last night, and she was not lightly trained.”
Shang Ye Kun’s eyebrows sank, and after a long time he sighed and said meaningfully: “Qiqi is a good boy.”
The housekeeper also lowered his eyebrows, “Yes.”
*
Shang Qiqi didn’t go back to sleep, standing by the window, watching Shang Qingmo with his coat draped around his wrist, he naturally opened the door and got into the car.
That kind of indifferent expression on his face, refusing to see people thousands of miles away.
Even the breath emanating from his body is.
She is the only one who loves her unconditionally.
She even thought that he had given her all his tenderness and patience, that he was special to her.
Until now, she realized that it was her over-awareness.
is nothing more than the uncle’s favoritism towards his niece, she prefers to think it is love.
went back to bed, called the tutor to ask for leave, and got into the quilt and fell asleep again.
She didn’t go downstairs until noon.
I just didn’t expect that there would be guests at home at this time.
“Qiqi girl woke up?” Shang Yekun looked up at her with a smile and watched her go downstairs, “I heard that you are sick, Ji Chi came to visit.”
Hearing this, the man on the sofa stood up, turned and looked at her with a smile.
“I heard from the tutor that you are sick, come to see you.”
“Ah, it’s much better now.” Shang Qiqi stretched out his hand and scratched his head, a little embarrassed, “Thank you for coming to see me, I’m ashamed to say… I just woke up with a headache in the morning after drinking last night.”
Han Jichi paused, then smiled, “It’s fine.”
“Qiqi, you should drink less of this wine in the future. Don’t listen to your uncle talking about how much you can drink. If you need it, what do I want him to do!”
Shang Qiqi was warmed by the old man’s preference, “I know, Grandpa, I won’t in the future.”
“Yeah. Lunch will be ready in a while, Ji Chi will stay here for lunch at noon! If you are bored, the two of you will go for a walk in the yard first, and I will call you when lunch is ready!”
Shang Qiqi paused, looked at the old man’s face for two seconds, then raised his lips and nodded, “Okay.”
The roots of the Shang family are in Pingcheng.
The place where he lives now is a village where his ancestors lived around the city.
With the passage of time and various plans for demolition, the industrial shops in the city, including the houses, have not been left. After a hundred years, the land is still intact.
After several renovations, the current Shangjia villa still has an antique style.
Passing through the Chaoshou veranda, and after several round arches, the backyard is a back garden with a large artificial lake.
The two of them were walking and chatting, most of which were things in school.
They are both in the finance department and are of the same age. The Shang family and the Han family have always had a good relationship, and the two have always had a good relationship in the school. Their achievements in all aspects are also top-notch in the department, which can be regarded as the school’s situation. figure.
On the CP list of the school forum, both of them are on the list unsurprisingly.
It’s just that there are a lot of discussions about Shang Qiqi.
For example, she is only the adopted daughter of the Shang family, and her family background is not comparable to that of a serious young lady.
For example, she doesn’t seem that smart, but she was admitted to the Department of Finance of T University with excellent grades. Later, she was mediocre. Even when everyone worked hard but she “doesn’t do a proper job”, her grades continued to be stable throughout the department. front row.
There is no beautiful birth, but there is an enviable growth environment, and a learning mind that makes people jealous.
She was in school, and she was divided equally between praise and criticism, which was one of the reasons why she became a man of the hour.
“Have you heard of a 2+Y project in school this year?”
Shang Qiqi shook his head, “What do you mean?”
Han Jichi explained: “This year, the school has reached a cooperation with XX University in country Y, and each department will send two exchange students. The university will be in China for two years, and the remaining two years will be studied abroad. At that time, you can get a double bachelor’s degree at home and abroad. Degree. Of course, if you want to continue to improve, you can continue to stay in a foreign school.”
Shang Qiqi stopped slowly, and the two stopped on the white arch bridge of the artificial lake.
“So, you want to go?”
Han Jichi nodded, “I want to go with you.”
Shang Qiqi was stunned and looked at him in surprise.
Han Jichi took a deep breath, “You don’t need to feel pressured, I admit that I have a crush on you, but I won’t do anything to you if you don’t want to. It doesn’t mean that you agree to go to Y with me. Country, I will treat you as agreeing to something. I just think that with your achievements in all aspects, it should not be a problem to pass this project.
And this also just weighs my selfishness, because once you go abroad, the only person you can rely on for a short time is me. If you accept me at this time, it will be better, and I will not force it without me… No matter what, this project It’s the best of both worlds for me, but it’s mostly up to you…”
Han Jichi’s frankness and directness made Shang Qiqi at a loss for a while.
“Qiqi, I hope you can think about it, this project can’t afford to be missed, don’t veto this project just because of me. I just said that your promise to go to country Y is not a promise to me, I fully respect you. “
“I…I think about it.”
She seemed eager to break the awkward situation, and said again: “Lunch should be almost over, let’s go back.”
After she finished speaking, she turned around.
Just took two steps when Han Jichi’s voice rang behind her again.
“Seven Seven!”
She had to turn her head.
But seeing the complicated look on Han Jichi’s face, she wondered, “What’s wrong?”
Han Jichi’s lips were pursed tightly, and he opened his mouth slowly after a long while.
“Maybe, this option is the best of both worlds for you.”
Shang Qiqi didn’t quite understand, but there were servants calling them in the distance.
*
After lunch, he sent Han Jichi back, but the housekeeper stopped Shang Qiqi with a smile.
“Miss, the weather is nice today, the old man is waiting to play chess with you in the gazebo by the lake.”
“Okay.” It’s rare for her to come back for a whole day, and it’s been a long time since she accompanies the old man to relieve his boredom.
Tea trays are being placed in the gazebo, and several fruit trays have been placed around.
“grandfather!”
Shang Qiqi ran over with a smile and glanced at the chessboard.
“Play chess today.”
“Haha, come on, even though you’re a stinky chess player, it’s weird that you haven’t played for a long time.”
Shang Qiqi pouted, “I’m not a stinky chess basket!”
“Come on, let me see how much you’ve grown.”
The old man looked impatient, Shang Qiqi snorted, rolled up his sleeves, and sat confidently opposite the old man.
“Look at me first to win you a game to open your eyes.”
Shang Yekun was so amused by her that he couldn’t close his mouth.
Shang Qiqi really won the first round.
The old man nodded, “Well, not bad, I have made progress, this time I regretted a move this time.”
Shang Qiqi didn’t care, “Anyway, I won. In order to win you, I have been pestering my uncle to teach me how to play chess.”
The old man smiled, “Come on, continue.”
Not long after the second round, the old man suddenly said, “Qiqi.”
The teasing just now disappeared, and even the smile on his face disappeared.
Shang Qiqi felt inexplicably tight.
“What’s the matter, Grandpa?”
“Did your uncle scold you last night?”
Shang Qiqi’s face suddenly turned pale, his lips opened and closed, but he couldn’t say a word.
The old man sighed heavily, “You are still young, and your thinking about relationships is immature. It’s also up to Grandpa, who didn’t discover your thoughts early. Grandpa never likes to be **** strong people, including the feelings of your juniors, if it’s not for each other. If there is a problem with your character, I will not easily intervene.
So even if you like it, and your uncle doesn’t have the intention, I can’t force him to accept you. It’s not a good thing for you either, do you understand Qiqi? “
Shang Qiqi nodded, “I understand, thank you grandpa for thinking so much about me.”
Shang Ye Kun glanced at Shang Qiqi’s unremitting chess path on the chessboard, shook his head secretly, and couldn’t help feeling distressed in his heart.
“Qiqi, Grandpa asks you again, can you give up on your uncle?”
Shang Qiqi squeezed the **** in his hand tightly, remembering Shang Qingmo’s merciless words last night, and shook his head gently.
“I made a mistake. Uncle treats me very well. I think I have never thought of that. Grandpa, smart people should stop their losses in time, right?”
The old man nodded, his expression more serious, “Okay, since you think so, then I should never know about this matter. In the future, I will not allow this kind of thing to happen, you know? If you do it again, Qiqi, don’t blame it. Grandpa is cruel.”
Shang Qiqi’s heart seemed to have been hollowed out in half by some sharp weapon.
Obviously she knew the result last night, but when she heard her grandfather’s words today, she still felt that suffocating discomfort, even more sad than last night.
She knew that Grandpa wanted to cut off her thoughts completely.
Although is cruel, she also knows that grandfather is probably afraid that she will be hurt continuously in the future.
Or maybe, he just wanted to tell her that she and uncle are not suitable.
*
Shang Qiqi and Shang Qingmo usually live in villas in the urban area,
It is convenient to travel, and all aspects of life are suitable for young people.
Yesterday was the weekend, and it was customary to go back to our home.
Usually, Shang Qingmo takes her to school when she goes to work on Mondays, and she stays in the city on weekdays without accidents.
Shang Qingmo didn’t come back at night.
Shang Qiqi was sent to school by a driver arranged by the old man the next day.
When he went to school, he received a few unusual glances that resembled defensiveness and hatred.
Don’t think that she is like a mirror in her heart. The 2+Y project that Han Jichi told her yesterday should have come out, and she will inevitably become a thorn in the eyes of others.
In fact, their worries were right. Not long after she arrived at the school, she was called over by her tutor.
is also the point of emphasis.
“This program does not only require good grades. Seventy-seven, many people are staring at this program. After spending two years abroad, you should have a good sense of how the foreign teachers are. Afterwards, the double bachelor’s degree at home and abroad alone will not be enough. It’s enough to grab people’s attention. How rare is the opportunity, you know?”
There are so many people fighting over things, but the teacher takes time to tell her so much, but Shang Qiqi still has a bar in his heart.
“I…can I think about it again?”
Instructor sighed, “I hope you can hurry up, this kind of thing can change at any time.”
“Okay, I see. Thank you.”
She came out of the office, and Han Jichi was at the door of the office.
Seeing her coming out, he strode over.
“what do you say?”
“I… think again.”
Han Jichi’s eyes flashed with disappointment for a moment, and then smiled again, “It’s okay, if you didn’t refuse, then there is still a chance.”
Shang Qiqi twitched his lips, but he didn’t dare to look at him any more.
After school in the afternoon, Shang Qiqi wandered outside for a long time, and finally returned to the villa in the city.
It wasn’t too late when I went back, but I bumped into Shang Qingmo who had already returned home.
As soon as you enter the door, the room smells of alcohol.
Her heart skipped a beat.
Finally found him in his bedroom.
He was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and there was a woman sitting beside the bed, who was now leaning over to unbutton his shirt.
This scene made her stunned at the door, her head buzzing as if someone had dropped a bomb.
When the woman saw her, she naturally retracted her hand and smiled generously at her, “Hello.”
Shang Qiqi nodded mechanically, “Hello.”
The woman wears makeup, delicate and beautiful, in the style of a bright big sister who is ashamed of herself as soon as she looks.
“Are you his niece?” The woman asked again with a smile.
Shang Qiqi still nodded.
“There was a toast tonight, and he always emphasized that there are children in the family who can’t drink too much. We all know that he has a little niece who is very fond of him. Thinking that he has been single for so many years and is not his own child, then he is most likely talking about you. “
The woman’s explanation sounds like how much Shang Qingmo loves her, but Shang Qiqi is not at all happy.
The woman didn’t wait for her to respond, and continued: “Pour him a glass of water, he has just been shouting for a long time.”
“……Okay.”
took out the ice water from the refrigerator and poured it into the cup, only then did she realize that she was just like an outsider.
After going upstairs, Shang Qingmo was already awake and was now sitting on the head of the bed.
The collar of the shirt was wide open, and there were a few strands of short hair falling on his forehead, showing a little slump.
The woman sitting on the side took the cup from her hand and handed it to him.
Shang Qiqi stood aside, Chaos’s mind didn’t know what to do at this moment.
“What are you doing standing still? Still not going to rest?”
In the end, Shang Qingmo gave her a cold glance, and she didn’t react until she scolded her coldly.
Quickly walked out of his bedroom, Shang Qiqi grabbed the clothes on his chest tightly, and closed his eyes forcefully.
So, did that woman stay in his room tonight?
*
She didn’t know how she slept at night. When she was woken up by the alarm clock the next day, her thoughts returned, and her first reaction was heartache.
Finally got up and went to the bathroom.
All sad things have to endure in the end.
There are still some things, she also needs to make it clear to her uncle.
But she didn’t expect that as soon as she walked to the stairs, she saw Shang Qingmo sitting on the sofa in the living room, as if she was waiting for her on purpose and had something to say to her.
She paused and decided to strike first.
Dengdengdeng went downstairs, trotted in front of him, and said:
“Uncle, I was really impulsive about what happened last time, and I know your attitude. You don’t have to spend so much trouble finding a woman to take home and remind me of something…”
“pop” sound.
Shang Qiqi’s words were suddenly interrupted.
She looked at a bunch of keys that Shang Qingmo had just thrown on the coffee table, and she didn’t know why.
“what is this?”
Shang Qingmo put down his hand on his eyebrows, and his voice was cold:
“I bought a house in a high-end apartment next to your school, and you will live there in the future.”
Shang Qiqi swayed, “You…you think I will still…”
Shang Qingmo said coldly with a stern face, “You are already an adult, not to mention that there will be a hostess living here in the future, it will be very inconvenient for you to live here.”
He said, disregarding her current mood, and stood up by himself, “As for the so-called big trouble, you think too much, I’m not that naive.”
“I will arrange for someone to move it to the apartment for you. If you have any needs, let me know.”
Shang Qiqi didn’t speak any more. It wasn’t until Shang Qingmo left for a long time that she picked up the bunch of keys on the coffee table. After a long time, she chuckled lightly.
The first thing Shang Qiqi did when he went to school was to go to the office.
She agreed to go to country Y.
Han Jichi is right, leaving is the best of both worlds for her.
Double bachelor’s degree at home and abroad, she must also distance herself from Shang Qingmo, so that she can completely give up.
She urgently needs to find a way to ease her current messy and bad mood.
She let Shang Qingmo arrange for someone to move all the things that belonged to her from his villa to the apartment here, and she stayed in the apartment that day.
There are still two weeks before the summer vacation. If the project is successfully applied for, it is highly likely that it will depart to country Y on a certain day in the summer vacation.
He was right, she really couldn’t live there any longer.
He did the right thing, who would allow a woman who had thoughts about him to live in the same room with him.
is just a feeling that has not yet begun, let her give up completely as soon as possible.
Alright…
