My name is Xu Xiaomei, I am 27 years old, and I am the only child in my family. Since graduating from university, I have been working in this foreign company, and with my own efforts and abilities, I have quickly gained the favor and reuse of the company. Although my career has been going well, my love life has been empty. Maybe it's because I'm too involved in my work.
Just a few days ago, the company suddenly notified me that I was going to go to another field for a week-long project visit. This kind of work is not new, and I am ready to be ready to be on call at any time. Unexpectedly, this time, the company temporarily sent Mr. Wang to it, on the grounds that this project was too important and needed to be checked by a big man like him.
Although we have been with Wang for many years, we have never had much intersection. First, he is high-minded, and secondly, I don't really like his style. So when I heard the news that I was going to travel with him, I was still a little apprehensive and uneasy in my heart.
"Xu Xiaomei, have you heard anything about Mr. Wang recently?" Before leaving, my friend Xiao Li said to me mysteriously.
"What's the rumor? I asked rhetorically, a little confused.
"That is to say, Mr. Wang recently hooked up with a little girl again, and that girl is pregnant, do you say it is exciting enough?" Xiao Li looked gossipy.
"Cut, I'm not interested. I replied impatiently, "It has nothing to do with me anyway." "
"But aren't you going on a business trip together this time? Xiao Li said, and made an exaggerated appearance.
I rolled my eyes and thought to myself: Even if Mr. Wang is really so romantic, I will not be fooled. However, the thought of having to spend the next week alone with such a bad boss still makes me feel a little uneasy.
When it was finally time to leave, I carried my small suitcase and came to the door of the company. Sure enough, Mr. Wang was already waiting there. When he saw me coming, he waved to me warmly, with an amiable smile on his face.
"Xu Xiaomei, hello, we are going to cooperate well this time. Mr. Wang looked me up and down, and his tone was very friendly.
"Hello, Mr. Wang. I nodded, but I was secretly looking at him in my heart: just looking at his appearance, Mr. Wang was indeed handsome and chic, no wonder he would be rumored to be haunted by the past. But he did look very sincere today, and I felt a little good about him.
"We are all old employees of the company, don't be so rusty, just call me Mr. Wang. As he spoke, he reached out and shook my hand.
"Okay, Mr. Wang. I smiled and replied, thinking that this business trip might not be as bad as I thought.
Soon, we got into a car sent by the company and started this long business trip. As soon as I got into the car, I was struck by the luxurious decoration in the car: leather seats, car refrigerator, LCD TV, everything, it seems that the company is extravagant this time.
"How's it going, are you still satisfied?" Seeing my stunned appearance, Mr. Wang said to me with a smile.
"I didn't expect the company to spend so much money this time, which was really unexpected to me. I sighed from the bottom of my heart.
"Haha, this project is very important, we have to go to investigate it comfortably. Mr. Wang said and patted me on the shoulder.
The car slowly drove out of the city and began the long journey. At first, there was a terrible silence in the car. But soon, Mr. Wang took the initiative to break the silence and started a topic with me.
"Xu Xiaomei, how many years have you been working in the company? I have the impression that you are a very capable young man. "
"It's been five years, and time flies. I reminisced about the time, "It was really not easy to get into this company. "
"yes, I remember your resume was coveted by a lot of people. Not only do you excel in your studies, but you also participate in a wide variety of club activities. "
I looked at him in amazement: "How do you remember me? I was just an unknown candidate." "
"Haha, you're too modest. Mr. Wang smiled heartily, "I have read the information of each applicant, you are an outstanding young man, so I have always been very optimistic about you." "
I was a little embarrassed by his words, and I couldn't help but feel a hint of crimson on my face. I didn't expect Mr. Wang, who is usually high-minded, to be so attentive to me.
"Actually, I've always envied you young people. Mr. Wang said earnestly, "You can fight for your ideals, but I have long been imprisoned by life." "
I was a little surprised by what he said, but more of a heartfelt admiration for him. I didn't expect this glamorous-looking boss to be so melancholy in his heart.
"But haven't you also achieved great things, and you are an example for all of us. I say sincerely.
"Achievement is important, but if you lose your peace of mind, everything will be in the air. Mr. Wang's expression was gloomy, as if he was laughing at himself.
I watched him silently, and suddenly I felt like I was too late to see each other. If we could really get to know Mr. Wang earlier, maybe we would have become very good friends.
At this moment, Mr. Wang also seemed to notice my gaze, he smiled at me gently, stretched out his big hand, and covered the back of my hand.
"Xu Xiaomei, I'm very happy to be with you this time. You make me feel so different, and it makes me feel like I want to close the distance. "
My heart was pounding, and my face was flushed. Mr. Wang's hands were broad and powerful, giving me an unprecedented sense of security. I involuntarily put my hand gently over his, my eyes full of trust and attachment.
Since then, Mr. Wang and I seem to have become close. We have nothing to talk about. Mr. Wang often took out his private collection of fine wine and shared the bits and pieces of his life with me.
Once, Mr. Wang half-jokingly said to me: "Xu Xiaomei, if we had known each other a few years ago, would you agree to be my girlfriend?"
"What?!" I was stunned by his words, and then lowered my head shyly.
"Haha, just kidding, don't take it too seriously. Mr. Wang smiled heartily, but I seemed to see a trace of inexplicable emotion in his eyes.
Yes, we've been together for so long, so it's inevitable that we'll have some more affection for each other than friends. However, this is only a short journey after all, and we have to return to our respective life trajectories after that. I don't know what Mr. Wang has in mind for me, but I have made up my mind that this affection must not be bred like this.
Just when I was determined to strangle this relationship in the cradle, a sudden accident completely disrupted my plans.
On that day, we were driving on a remote mountain road with extremely rough conditions. I don't know if it was because of the weather or other reasons, a huge crater suddenly appeared on the road, and our vehicle was shaken so hard that it almost lost control.
"Be careful!" Mr. Wang yelled and stretched out his hand to protect me tightly in his arms.
"Xu Xiaomei, Xu Xiaomei, are you okay?" It was Mr. Wang's flustered voice.
I barely opened my eyes, only to see Mr. Wang's anxious face right in front of me, his hands holding my cheeks, his eyes full of distress and self-blame.
I was unconsciously stunned by his intimacy, and my body stiffened involuntarily. But soon, a sharp pain came, and I realized that my arm had been cut through a bloody wound at some point, and red blood was gurgling out.
I was completely shocked by Mr. Wang's sudden words. It turned out that all this was a conspiracy carefully planned by him! I never expected that he, who had always been polite, would do such a despicable thing.
"Explain what?! You scumbag, I never want to see you again!"
I stood up angrily, shook off Mr. Wang's hand, and staggered forward. However, the pain at the wound made it impossible for me to walk at all, and I soon fell to the ground again.
Seeing this, Mr. Wang hurriedly helped me, but I pushed him away fiercely: "Don't touch me! You liar, I'd rather die here than marry you!"
"Really? You tricked me into this kind of hellish place and made me seriously injured, is this your true heart?" I sneered and turned my head away.
"I know I'm going too far, but that's because I love you so much that I can't think of any other way to make you mine. Mr. Wang's tone sounded extremely sincere.
"What?" I was stunned by his words and subconsciously looked back into his eyes.
However, at this time, a scene that I didn't expect appeared: it turned out that everything along the way was just a play carefully choreographed by Mr. Wang in order to achieve his goal.
Not far behind us, the sound of a car engine was suddenly heard. Soon, a black SUV sped out of the bushes on the side of the road and came to an abrupt halt before our eyes.
"Mr. Wang, everything is ready. A big man stepped down from the car and said to Mr. Wang respectfully.
"Good, you're doing a good job. Mr. Wang nodded and glanced at the man.
I was completely shocked by the scene in front of me: it turned out that this so-called "accident" was all a well-planned hoax!
"You total liar!" I finally broke out and punched and kicked Mr. Wang frantically, "Why am I so stupid, I will be deceived by you! You scumbag, I will never marry you!"
"Explain what? You liar, I don't want to see you again!" I yelled almost hysterically, tears rolling in my eyes.
How could I be so naïve that I could be deceived by this person? I thought that all his consideration for me was from the bottom of his heart. But now it seems that all this is just to achieve his sneaky purpose. I was completely heartbroken by his lies.
"Xu Xiaomei, I know what I did wrong, but please believe that my love for you is sincere. Mr. Wang looked at me with a sincere face, and his tone was extremely sincere.
"Really, do you still have the face to say such a thing?" I looked back at him coldly, my tone full of sarcasm.
"I'll admit that I did use some excesses in order to make you mine. But my love for you is sincere, please trust me. Mr. Wang said, and knelt down in front of me.
"Get up, I won't fall for you!" I sneered and turned my head away.
I opened my mouth, but I was speechless.
And just like that, I fell into a deep tangle.
On the one hand, I am extremely angry and disappointed by what Mr. Wang has done. He not only deceived me, but also hurt me, and I cannot forgive him for such a despicable method. But on the other hand, I have a deep love for him. Although we have only been together for a few days, I already see him as the only one in my life.
In the face of Mr. Wang's sincere love, my heart fell into an unprecedented entanglement and struggle. On the one hand, I was extremely angry and disappointed by his deception and hurtful behavior, and felt that he was too vile and shameless; But on the other hand, I was touched by his deep love for me, and I already had an inextricable affection for him in my heart.
At this moment, a slightly loud voice sounded behind me: "Xiaomei, are you okay?"
I followed the prestige, only to see Xiao Li running over with an anxious face. When he saw my scarred appearance, he was shocked: "Oh my God, what's wrong with you, what happened?"
I opened my mouth, but I was speechless. At this point, I really can't explain everything in front of me to Xiao Li.
"Xiaomei, talk to me quickly, who hurt you?" Xiao Li anxiously tugged at my arm, his tone full of worry.
Seeing that I was silent for a long time, Xiao Li noticed Mr. Wang kneeling beside him, and immediately became angry: "It turned out to be you bastard! What the hell did you do to Xiaomei?"
As he spoke, Xiao Li was about to pounce on him and make a move with Mr. Wang, but I was dragged by him. I shook my head and motioned for him not to be impulsive.
"What's not what I thought it was? Isn't it this bastard who hurt you?" Xiao Li glared at Mr. Wang fiercely, furious.
"Xu Xiaomei, you don't have to take care of me, just tell me what happened. Mr. Wang said in a low voice, his tone full of self-blame.
"What did you say?" Xiao Li was stunned by my words and looked at the two of us in amazement.
"But he did such an excesses in order to get you! Xiao Li said indignantly, "Xiaomei, why did you forgive him so easily?"
"Xiaomei, listen well, I will never forgive him for this matter!" Xiao Li said angrily, "Even if he truly loves you, it is absolutely unforgivable for him to make such despicable means! If you marry him, it will be too naïve!"
At this moment, Mr. Wang suddenly spoke, and his tone was full of self-blame: "Xiao Li, what you said is very reasonable. I did something unforgivable to Xu Xiaomei, and if she couldn't forgive me, it would be my own fault. "
"Xu Xiaomei, I love you, this is from the heart. Mr. Wang looked at me affectionately, his eyes more sincere than ever, "But I also know that the damage I have done to you is irreparable." So, I can't ask you anything, it's up to you to decide. As long as you're having fun. "
At this juncture, Xiao Li spoke again and said earnestly: "Xiaomei, you have to think about this matter carefully. Love is important, but if it is based on hurt and deception, it will not last long in the future. You have to think twice. "
I nodded, my eyes glazed over. Xiao Li makes a lot of sense, I have to weigh it carefully.
After being silent for a long, long time, I finally spoke, and my tone was full of determination: "Mr. Wang, I am very grateful for your infatuation with me, but I can't forgive what you have done. "
Mr. Wang showed a sad look, but quickly nodded, as if he had already prepared this plan.
I took a deep breath and continued, "However, I will not deny that I have some different feelings for you in my heart. So, I'll give you a chance to start over. "
"What?" Mr. Wang and Xiao Li were stunned by my words and looked at each other.
