Chapter 72 Giving Up

Jiang Zhimiao said , " This bed is too small, the two of us can't fit in it."

As a man, it's one thing if you don't want it, but it's another thing if you are rejected.

Generally speaking, the more frustrated you become, the more courage you get.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhimiao pursed her lips and said , " How about you come up here? It'll be convenient for me to take care of you."

Shen Zhuowen lowered his gaze and glanced at her.

Jiang Zhimiao opened his eyes wide, with clean and clear amber pupils, looking at Shen Zhuowen without blinking.

She was born fair, so the blue and black spots after staying up late appeared particularly abrupt on her skin. Her long and curly eyelashes trembled uneasily. Her slender fingertips poked out of the quilt little by little and grabbed his sleeves, like a The kitten put away its sharp claws, fearing that he would be angry.

Shen Zhuowen's big palm fell on her eyes, and his slender eyelashes crossed the palm from time to time, leaving a slight itchiness.

He said calmly , " Go to sleep."

Jiang Zhimiao was startled.

Seeing that Shen Zhuowen had no other emotions or movements, she really lay down and prepared to sleep.

So sleepy.

Her head touched the pillow, the woman slowly closed her eyes, and she unconsciously moved closer to Shen Zhuowen.

In the empty room, breathing is long and even.

Shen Zhuowen stared down at the woman's sleeping face, retracted his hand after a while, stood up and walked out.

There was a crack in the door.

He turned his head to look at the sunlight leaking through the gap. Without saying anything, he stood up and walked into the study.

The study was quiet, and the sun-stained dust swayed in the air, turning the entire study into a warm pale golden color.

Shen Zhuowen walked to the desk and opened the drawer.

There is a black velvet box in the drawer.

He pressed his slender fingers on the outer edge of the box and opened the box. Inside were the earrings Jiang Zhimiao left behind in the hotel that day.

His dark pupils were like a storm brewing, and he frowned slightly.

A few minutes later, the cell phone rang faintly in the living room.

Shen Zhuowen closed the box, put it back in the drawer, and walked into the living room to answer the phone.

"Mr. Shen, are you awake?" Tang Fan asked.

Shen Zhuowen said , " What's wrong?"

Tang Fan said , " Madam came over and said that she wanted to allocate funds from the account to fill Miss Shen's hole."

Shen Zhuowen tapped his fingers on the table and said after a while , " Let her access my private account."

Tang Fan , " Okay."

The slanting sunlight shone in front of the slippers. Shen Zhuowen looked at the floating light and shadow and asked , " What is her plan?"

"What Mrs. Shen means is that one more person in the Shen family is not too much, and one less person is not too much." Tang Fan said , " Ms. Shen's situation is not too good. She was taken back a few days ago and the servants didn't pay attention to her. He went to the kitchen, took a kitchen knife, and committed suicide by cutting his wrists, which shocked my wife. "

Shen Zhuowen said nothing.

Tang Fan said tentatively and awkwardly , " Actually, I think that person's appetite is too big, and I'm afraid it will get bigger and bigger in the future, affecting the Shen family."

"Adversity reveals a person's heart." Shen Zhuowen said calmly , " Go and tell her this."

Tang Fan understood, "As long as Miss Shen is stopped and hits a wall with that man, she might wake up."

Shen Zhuowen was noncommittal.

However, after watching Shen Zhuowen interrupt the call, Tang Fan had already gone to persuade Shen's mother.

He rushed to the finance room and saw Mother Shen standing at the door, flushed with anger.

Stepping forward quickly, Tang Fan said with a smile on his face , " Madam, Mr. Shen has agreed to smuggle the accounts. Come with me."

Mother Shen looked bad, "Where is Shen Zhuowen?"

Tang Fan said , " Mr. Shen is probably resting in the hospital now. You also know that the company's elevator broke down two days ago, and Mr. Shen happened to be in the elevator."

His words were very clever and made Shen's mother feel a little guilty.

The well-maintained middle-aged woman looked a little unnatural, "Why didn't he tell me?"

Tang Fan said familiarly , " This is not to worry you. Madam, please give me your account. Now sign this document and we will transfer the account later."

Mother Shen's expression softened, "Okay, don't forget to remind him that he can take a break from work, and sometimes his health is more important. Don't run projects even if you are injured."

"I know, I will definitely bring the words to you." Tang Fan said with a smile , " But madam, regarding Miss Shen, I still think a friend in need is a friend in need. Maybe the man will dump Miss Xu if he sees that she has no money. It’s not certain that Miss Xu may just give up.”

Mother Shen's face darkened, but she stretched out her hand to avoid hitting the smiling man. Looking at Tang Fan's smiling face, she didn't say anything, just gave him a cold warning.

Tang Fan didn't care.

He knew that Mother Shen had listened.

The choice depends on whether the Shen family is willing to accept a gambler.

...

Jiang Zhimiao slept very comfortably and woke up full of energy.

She moved her aching body, took out her phone, and checked the time.

One p.m.

How could she sleep for so long.

Jiang Zhimiao simply tidied up, then walked out of the bedroom door and walked to the kitchen.

When she was cooking noodles this morning, she took out the meat and defrosted it, and now she took it out and fried it, it was just right.

Jiang Zhimiao cooked the rice first, took out the pumpkin porridge from the casserole next to the stove, and started cleaning the pot and cooking.

Because she needed to make a quick decision, she didn't make too complicated dishes. One boiled shrimp, one fried pork with chili pepper, and then a loofah soup. These were not very time-consuming dishes.

The sound of the range hood rumbled in the kitchen.

After Shen Zhuowen made the phone call, he walked out and saw a slender figure busy in the kitchen.

A dish of water vegetables and a shrimp were placed on the table.

A faint fragrance floats in the air, filling it with the calming smell of home.

Jiang Zhimiao said , " We can eat after a while. Please sit down first."

Shen Zhuowen pulled out the chair and sat down.

Jiang Zhimiao brought the last dish to the table and took the bowl and chopsticks. Because it was a subconscious act, she placed the bowl and chopsticks directly on Shen Zhuowen's right hand.

Seeing the man's hand wrapped in gauze, she suddenly remembered something and moved the rice a little to the left.

Then, she sat across from Shen Zhuowen.

Perhaps because of the action just now, Jiang Zhimiao's eyes always stayed on Shen Zhuowen's left hand unconsciously.

From the beginning in the hospital, Shen Zhuowen seemed to be very familiar with using his left hand, only a little unfamiliar, maybe because he didn't use it often, but if you look at it now, his control over his left hand is no less than that of a left-hander.

Did he use his left hand a lot before?

Shen Zhuowen's voice sounded the next second , " I don't use it often, it was because I had a car accident before."

Only then did Jiang Zhimiao realize that he had spoken out his feelings.

But when she mentioned the car accident, she inexplicably thought of the words of Dr. Chen she heard this morning. She was ignorant at the time, and she didn't hear much until she heard the last sentence.

She raised her eyes and looked at the man in front of her.

"Are the reexaminations mentioned today related to the original car accident?"

There were quite a lot of rumors that Shen Zhuowen had a car accident back then. If you wanted to check it, you could find it.

"No," he said.

At the same time, Jiang Zhimiao felt her toes under the table being stepped on by a man, moving up an inch and touching her skin.

Jiang Zhimiao couldn't help but shiver.

Just as she was about to say something, she heard Shan Yu's voice.
