The Third Fate
Tang Ke Xin felt dizzy for a moment, and for an instant thought she had crossed over again. She lifted her head in a daze, looking through the blurry rear window to see Su Rui Qi sitting inside the car, gripping the steering wheel as he gazed out at the front of the hotel. Her face suddenly twisted in distress, she looked at Jiang Tian Kuang and muttered: "Didn't you say you were going to rest early today? What are you doing coming out?" But Tang Ke Xin sat back down again.
Jiang Tiankuai's face fell as he looked at this person, knowing she had a good memory. He recalled his conversation with Ren Zixian in the presidential suite and sneered, "So I'm going home, how about you?"
As if they were old friends.
"I... I also want to go home..." Tang Ke Xin said, on the verge of tears.
"Is it a habit of yours to get into other people's cars whenever you want to go home? It was like that three years ago, and it's still the same three years later!" Jiang Tiankuai's face was slightly displeased as he sat in the back seat looking at Tang Kexin.
"Absolutely not!! I'm getting off right now! I got on the wrong bus!" Tang Ke Xin was so scared that she looked at Jiang Tian Kuai's angry face, and just as she wanted to push open the car door and get out of the car, she turned white after glancing out the window.
Jiang Tiankuai looked at her expression and demeanor, and also turned his face coldly. His eyes condensed, seeing Ren Zixian wearing a Parisian fashion lychee outer coat, wearing high heels, and was about to walk towards his own car. He calmly stretched out his hand, pressed Tang Ke Xin's waist, and let her lean on his thigh with a "whoosh" sound!
Tang Ke Xin was so scared that she buried her face in Jiang Tian Kuai's abdomen, grasping the corner of his suit tightly with both hands, and her soul flew away. She thought to herself that after barely escaping death today, she absolutely didn't want anything else to happen. As she thought this, her whole body trembled and cold sweat dripped down.
Jiang Tiankuai lowered his head and looked at the person who was scared like this, then calmly instructed the driver: "Drive." The CEO's mistress 3.
The driver shifted gears instantly and slowly started the car, turning sharply in front and heading towards Guanhai Long Bridge.
Su Ruiqi lifted his wrist to check the time, then looked out the window with a hint of anxiety. Suddenly, he saw a black Rolls-Royce drive by in front of him. Then, he saw Tang Ke Xin hastily get out of Jiang Tian Kuai's arms, lift her head and look back, only to be pulled back into his arms again. He pressed her head against his chest, his face stiffening as he encountered this scene once more, causing him to doubt his intuition even further.
The sea breeze is a bit cool.
He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes with a hint of helplessness, and let out a soft sigh. Just then, he heard Ren Zixian and a famous international magazine editor who had just come to watch the show hugging each other. She was still so radiant, so sharp, and so full of personality. He smiled slightly, temporarily putting aside Ke Xin's affairs, pushed open the car door, got out, and leaned against the front of the car, smiling as he looked at Ren Zixian across the street.
Ren Zixian was chatting with the editor of the magazine in fluent French, saying something about how successful tonight's fashion show was. Just as she was about to enter the hotel with the editor, she suddenly stopped and stood still, her face slightly changing color. Finally, she turned around and saw Su Ruiqi leaning against the car, looking as handsome, stylish, and elegant as ever, smiling at her across the street lamps that cast a reddish glow on the road.
She first gave him a blaming look and then suddenly smiled.
Vehicles come and go on the road.
Ren Zixian and Su Ruiqi were hugging each other tightly in front of the hotel lobby, with Su Ruiqi even holding her waist and lifting her up, saying: "You've lost weight again!"
Ren Zi Xian deliberately stared at Su Rui Qi for a moment before laughing and saying, "Didn't you say you weren't coming? You always do this, hanging up on women's calls!"
Su Rui suddenly stretched out her hands and held her face, saying: "Didn't I come?"
"How did I have a feeling that you're just passing by?" Ren Zixian looked at him with some disbelief.
Su Ruiqi looked at Ren Zixian with a faint smile and said, "Anyway, I'm here."
"Look at my fashion show! Last time your designer took away many of my works. Your taste is getting better and better." Zixian said with a smile, her hands tucked into Su Ruiqi's arm.
Su Ruiqi smiled faintly and walked into the main hall with her.
Everyone cast sidelong glances, they all seemed to be in a state of abandon, if people familiar with them were clear about the identities between them, it was so subtle, yet so unshakeable. The president's mistress 3
The phone rang at this time.
Ren Zi Xian heard that, immediately took out the phone from Su Rui Qi's pocket, and directly dialed it. Then she said: "No matter who you are! Tonight's Su Rui Qi is mine. So, back off!"
She finished speaking and hung up the phone directly.
"Hey!" Su Ruiqi took over the phone and suddenly laughed, saying: "You're still so domineering."
"In this lifetime, there aren't many days where I can be with you. Why can't it be tyrannical?" Ren Zixian said with a slightly raised face and a loud voice.
Su Ruiqi looked at her helplessly, then lowered his head and opened the phone screen to see that the previous call was from Ke Xin. His face slightly calmed down as he thought for a moment, and then asked faintly: "Where is your fiancé?"
"I'm going back," said Zixian.
"Hurry up and get married, and have a kid with him?" Su Rui Qi put away his phone and joked.
"There's plenty of time for having kids in the future. I don't have that kind of time to give him now, anyway he's not mine at present." Ren Zixian led Su Ruichi into the elevator.
Su Ruiqi walked into the elevator and silently looked at Zi Xian. She was still beautiful, still captivating, and still outstanding.
"What are you looking at?" Ren Zixian said bluntly: "This world is not just me, a fighter."
Su Ruiqi couldn't help but laugh. 14887356
Rolls-Royce navigates through the dark night.
Ke Xin held her phone, still sitting dazed in the back seat of the car, thinking about the woman's voice from just now, why did it sound so familiar? Thinking about the woman's voice from just now, why was it so ambiguous? She sat there stupidly, originally wanting to say to him, wait for me, I'll be right there...
Jiang Tiankuai turned his head and looked at Tang Kexin's distracted appearance, then coldly said: "Let's go eat sushi with the person we made an appointment with?"
"How did you know?" Tang Ke Xin held the phone and looked at Jiang Tian Kuai, saying in surprise.
Jiang Tiankuai said expressionlessly: "Didn't you look like you hadn't eaten enough when we went to the sushi restaurant last time?"
Tang Ke Xin stared at this person and said: "How come I'm not full? I ate a lot of wasabi!"
Jiang Tiankuai's face floated with a smile.
Tang Ke Xin turned her face away in annoyance, then looked at the car as it drove into the busy city and said: "Trouble you to drop me off up ahead."
Jiang Tiankuai listened to this and said with a displeased face: "I'll throw you out first, then give you a few hundred yuan to take a taxi. After that, your right cheek will be ruined again. Three years later, you'll hide in my wine room wiping cups, startling the next Premier, and I'll throw you into the sea to feed the sharks!"
Tang Ke Xin had nothing to say and directly said: "No. 2 Xihua Street."
The car sped west on Hua Street, passing through a bustling little street with many snacks and desserts, where people walked back and forth, eating with great relish.
Tang Ke Xin was so hungry that she was about to die, watching Jiang Tian Kuai and Ren Zi Xian eating a big meal today almost made her drool to death. She looked out the window at the crowded street, some people were picking up chopsticks, picking up a dog-not- Li Baozi, putting it in their mouth, dripping with juice, so fragrant! Her face turned bitter again, constantly swallowing saliva, and then seeing the freshly fried dough sticks, golden and making people drool to death!!
I can't take it anymore.
"I... I'm so hungry... Can I get off the bus and buy a bun?" Tang Ke Xin looked at Jiang Tian Lei with a pitiful expression.
"No way!"
Tang Ke Xin sat in the car with a deflated expression.
"Halt!"
The car stopped.
Her eyes lit up and she immediately turned her head excitedly, looking at Jiang Tiankuai's tense face, and smiled to say: "I'll go, I'll be right back!"
Jiang Tiankuai remained silent.
Tang Ke Xin smiled movingly and pushed the door open, got off the car, and rushed to the "Dog Doesn't Understand" baozi shop without noticing the passing vehicles. While taking out her wallet, she laughed warmly and said: "Boss! Give me three 'Dog Doesn't Understand' baozi, a cup of hot doujiang! Take-out! Thank you!"
"Alright!" The boss immediately picked up a white plastic bag and a steel clip, gave her a steamed bun, and asked his wife to pack soy milk.
"Is today's bun juicy?" Ke Xin asked with a smile while flipping through her bag.
"Of course! The buns in my hands are made to give you a tender and smooth taste, sweet and juicy!" the boss said with a smile.
"Is it? Is it?" Tang Ke Xin continued to flip through her purse, feeling a bit cool in her heart. Wouldn't she have forgotten to bring her purse today? Impossible!! She continued to flip left and right.
Jiang Tiankuai sat in the car, his face cold, and waited for a while before finally turning his head to look out the window at Tang Kexin, who was facing away from him with her head lowered, seemingly flipping through something.
"Chairman... she... what's wrong with her?" The driver was a bit curious.
"Can't you see? She's looking for her purse." Jiang Tiankuai's face turned cold, but he was still in a hurry, so he reluctantly got off the bus and walked across the road while taking out his wallet. He quickly pulled out 100 yuan and handed it to the boss of the convenience store, saying "Hurry up".
The owner of the baozi shop suddenly looked up and saw a handsome guy, wearing a luxurious suit, standing in front of the baozi shop, with an air of grandeur that instantly caught everyone's attention.
Tang Ke Xin also turned her head blankly and looked at Jiang Tian Kuai saying: "You..."
"Quickly," Jiang Tiankuai reminded her.
"Oh! Boss, trouble you to collect the money and pack the buns quickly!" Tang Ke Xin looked at Jiang Tian Kuai with a hint of gratitude and smiled.
Jiang Tiankuai ignored her.
The owner of the baozi shop immediately packed up the baozi and soy milk, along with the 90 yuan that had been returned as ransom, and handed them over to Tang Kexin. Just as Tang Kexin was about to reach out to take the money, it was suddenly snatched away by someone. She turned her head in a daze, looking at Jiang Tiankuai's calm face as he put the 90 yuan into his own pocket. She let out a laugh and took the baozi, but just as she was about to turn around, the bag moved and a pale blue wallet fell out. She stared at it in shock, her eyes wide with surprise, looking at her own wallet on the ground!!!
Jiang Tiankuai was about to turn around, but saw the wallet on the ground. His eyebrows rose as he lifted his head and looked at Tang Kexin.
Tang Ke Xin hastily looked at him, urgently wanting to shake her head and clear herself, wishing that this wallet wasn't hers.
Jiang Tiankuai sneered and laughed, ignoring her, walking back across the street to his car.
Tang Ke Xin really wanted to cry and bent down to pick up her purse, stuffed it into her pocket, and quickly crossed the road to get into his car.
The car started slowly.
Tang Ke Xin sipped on soy milk while gazing at Jiang Tian Kuai.
Jiang Tiankuai ignored her, gazing intently at a certain point in front of him, his eyes flashing coldly.
Tang Ke Xin continued to observe his expression while picking up a hot and spicy dog not reason bun, heavily biting into it, with a "puff" sound, the hot soup from the dog not reason bun instantly sprayed onto Jiang Tian Kuai's face and shirt, causing her to cry out in surprise.
Jiang Tiankuai's face also changed, and he looked down at his shirt with a hint of disgust.
"Sorry, sorry." Táng Kěxīn nervously put down the bun in his hand, casually grabbed the white handkerchief from his chest, and was about to lean forward to wipe off the juice on his face...
The small hand was tightly grasped by someone.
Tang Ke Xin was taken aback, looking at Jiang Tian Kuai's large hand, which suddenly grasped her small hand and pulled her into his arms. Her face turned bright red as she leaned against him, looking up at him in a daze.
Jiang Tiankuai also lowered his head, looking at her gazing up at him, the scar on her left cheek clearly visible, as if it was a scratch from fate. His eyes seemed slightly softer, and he slowly stretched out his hand, wanting to lightly touch that scar. Tang Keying immediately grabbed his wrist again in alarm, but Jiang Tiankuai didn't let go of her, instead suddenly pressing down on her body, pinning her to the back seat, his fingers gently touching that scar.
Tang Ke Xin's tears rolled down.
Jiang Tiankuai remained silent, not wiping away her tears, but instead gazed intently at the palm-sized scar with his eyes fixed on it. He lightly used his fingers to touch the uneven texture of the scar, as if he could feel that she had struggled and screamed in agony before being destroyed. His fingers gently slid along the ridges of the scar.
"You're really selfish." Tang Ke Xin suddenly choked and said, tears rolling down one by one.
Jiang Tiankuai slightly raised his eyes and silently gazed at her tearful eyes.
"Do you know how much I wanted to hide it, to not let it see the sunlight or people? I've been hiding with it for three years. Why do you keep bringing it up again and again? Do you know how much pain I'm in? I showed you my scars, do you know how painful that was? You stripped me of my dignity, did you feel good about it? Three years ago, just how much did you hate me?" Tang Ke Xin's tears fell one by one.
Jiang Tiankuai looked at her like that, and slowly let go of her body, sat up, looking at the car driving into Mulan Avenue, Yahu was wearing a white short-sleeved sportswear, standing in front of a certain candle boutique, left and right Looking around, as if waiting for someone, he coldly said: "Stop the car."
The Rolls-Royce car stopped in front of Ya Hui.
Ya Hui was taken aback, and just as she was curiously bending down to take a closer look at the vehicle, she saw the license plate number and suddenly realized it was the CEO's car. She was startled and took a big jump, then the car door opened, and to her surprise, Tang Ke Xin had slowly gotten out of the car. She stared with wide eyes, first looking at him in disbelief, then glancing at the back seat where the cold-faced CEO sat, her mind went blank, and she was so frightened that she stood up straight and bowed to Jiang Tian Pei inside the car.
Tang Ke Xin also carried a package and soy milk, turned around, took a glance at Jiang Tian Kuai in the car, and slightly bowed.
Jiang Tiankuai's eyes were calm as he said, "Drive."
"Yes!" The driver said, then grasped the steering wheel, slowly started the car, drove forward for a short distance, and then turned the direction of the car, driving straight ahead.
Ya Hui stood aside cautiously, watching Jiang Tiankuai's car drive forward. Suddenly, she came to Tang Ke Xin's face excitedly and shouted: "Hey! What's going on here?"
Ke Xin looked at Ya Hui with a helpless expression and said: "I... I... am very sorry."
"I was sleeping well at home today, and when I got up to make dinner after 7 o'clock, I received a call from Man Hong, scolding you harshly, and also scolded me together with you. I just knew that you actually interfered again! What can I do with you? Even swearing is useless. Are you going to sacrifice yourself for the Asia Grand Hotel? Okay, it's not easy, Miss Ren's matter has just passed, and then you let the president send you back? Am I seeing things?" Ya Hui said more helplessly and excitedly as she spoke.
"Yahui..." Ke Xin also walked up with a helpless expression, gently grasping her friend's hand and said with a bitter face: "Don't be angry, I'm really sorry today, I didn't know these things would happen. But I was very careful, very careful. Just now when the president sent me back, it was really a coincidence, even I don't know how...it ended up like this!"
Ya Hui looked at Ke Xin with suspicion and wide eyes, but didn't say a word.
"Really!!" Ke Xin said excitedly and affirmatively again.
Yahui deliberately glanced at her and sighed, knowing that pursuing the matter was pointless, so she asked: "Have you eaten yet?"
"No." Ke Xin swallowed hard, her throat parched and dry, and said with a bitter face: "I was originally starving to the point of collapse, then I bought some buns on the road and ate them, but the bun juice splattered onto the president's body. After that, I didn't dare eat anymore. Now I'm so hungry I could swallow a whole bucket of beef."
Yahui helplessly smiled and said: "Who told you to come! No matter what he says, wanting to send you away, you should refuse!"
"I really had no way to refuse at that time." She let out a light sigh, and then walked with Ya Hui towards the small attic they shared, opened the password lock, went through the dark stairs, and continued to worry as she walked: "Am I haunted by the door god? Today, I've run into him again and again, thinking about it now makes me shudder."
Yahui let out a sigh, and with a bitter smile, went up to the second floor, unlocking the door. At once, she saw a small yet exquisite pink living room, furnished with a sofa, LCD TV, a small dining table, and a large refrigerator. To the left was a balcony, and to the right was the kitchen. Looking straight ahead, there was a large room with crystal bead curtains, containing two small beds covered in blue bedding, a computer desk placed horizontally, and a bookshelf.
Ke Xin took off her shoes and walked into the room, putting her bag on the sofa, sat down, took a deep breath, closed her eyes and rested for a while.
Ya Hui glanced at her and walked in, passing by an antique cabinet, placing the key on the counter, a bottle of old red wine with a history, was locked inside the glass cabinet, three years had passed, it remained perfect, well preserved.
"I heard that if you run into someone three times in one day without any prior arrangement, there's a high chance you'll end up as lovers." Yahuai said with a smile as she saw Kexin return.
Tang Ke Xin suddenly turned her face, looked at her good friend and said very seriously: "Who says such irresponsible words!!!"
Ya Hui leaned on the sofa, laughing and saying: "Then you say, aren't you two very coincidental? You bumped into each other unintentionally in the morning, bumped into each other unintentionally at dusk, and bumped into each other again unintentionally at night!"
"I meet the son of the baozi shop owner every day, and we've exchanged pleasantries dozens of times. Are he and I destined to be lovers for tens of thousands of lifetimes?" Tang Ke Xin deliberately glared at her before standing up and saying: "I'm so hungry! I want to eat!" As she finished speaking, she thought about passing through the kitchen, but as she passed by the antique shelf, she saw that bottle of red wine, nicely placed there. For some reason, today she felt particularly sentimental looking at it. Over the years, whenever she had worries or was in a bad mood, she would always stand in front of it, slowly gazing at it, and feel a sense of comfort as it stood quietly inside the glass cabinet.
"Staring at it again!" Yahu also stood up, walked to the front of that bottle of red wine, and looked at this bottle of red wine with a hint of old history. She had always wanted to know the secret of this red wine, but Ke Xin had never been willing to tell herself.
Tang Ke Xin didn't make a sound, slowly stretched out her hand, lightly touched the glass mirror surface, her fingers slid over the red wine's position, and softly said: "I don't know why, but I always feel it's very important to me, like blood supporting my life..."
Ya Hui sighed and said, "In these three years, you've been talking nonsense to the red wine every day. I don't understand a single sentence. All I know is that you've been guarding this bottle every day, every year, every month, and it's really frustrating me. One of these days, when I'm in a bad mood, I'll open it and drink it!"
Tang Ke Xin immediately turned her head and looked at her good friend with a serious and tense expression.
Ya Hui couldn't help but laugh.
Tang Ke Xin couldn't help but laugh too, the two of them sighed and laughed together, then each went their separate ways, starving to death, leaving that bottle of red wine behind.
Inside the glass mirror, that bottle of deep, dark red wine is shining. It has gone through a century of wind and rain, and witnessed the tragic fate of a girl's life. Can it still remain calm inside? Everything in this world has its own reason and destiny. If you have ever worked hard for something, perhaps one day in the future, it will break out from the universe and appear before your eyes.
Today's update is over. (Entering countdown for standoff with Telecom)
