Human Greed

Chapter 11: face

Xu Ruoxing and Su Yi have slept together. They have been married for two years, and there will always be accidents. The last time was when I went back to my grandma's house. My grandma was sick, and Su Yi took care of her all night. Because she was worried, she also postponed her official business to stay with Su Yi. At night, she slept in Su Yi's room. Su Yi only entered the room in the middle of the night, and she woke up when she lay down. She asked Su Yi, "Is grandma asleep?"

Su Yi's voice was flat: "Yes."

As if she didn't want to talk any more, she turned over and saw that Su Yi's back was facing her, with an arm's distance between them, she was silent, and didn't want to talk any more.

That night I didn't sleep very well. I was woken up by the alarm clock at six o'clock in the morning. When I opened my eyes, Su Yi was no longer in bed. She smelled the smell of breakfast and saw Su Yi busy in the kitchen. It was hard to imagine, Su Yi Also someone who can cook.

"I always cook by myself." Su Yi said, "From a very young age."

She didn't know at that time, she thought that no matter how young she would be, she would be taken care of by her parents and grandma, but she didn't expect that Su Yi would not lie. The water boiled, and I ate instant noodles every day. At first, I didn’t know how to put seasoning packets, so I ate the noodles dryly. When my grandma said it, she said with emotion: "It’s a little fool, and I can eat tasteless instant noodles."

Su Yi handed the chopsticks to grandma and said, "I don't live well either."

One sentence chokes people to death.

Contrary to the coquettish tone now, Xu Ruoxing glanced at Su Yi, then at the bed he had just made, and said, "I'll sleep here."

"Why?" Su Yi was puzzled, walked up to her, and asked, "Sleep with me, okay?"

Xu Ruoxing pursed her lips: "Su Yi."

Su Yi tilted her head slightly, her gaze fell on Xu Ruoxing's face, her eyes were deep, and she seemed to have something to say, but Xu Ruoxing finally just said: "You need to rest, this bed is too small, you will definitely feel uncomfortable if the two of us are crowded together. "

The hospital bed is single, not big, what she said was reasonable, but Su Yi shook her head and looked at her: "I want to sleep with you."

It seems that if you don't sleep together today, you won't give up.

Xu Ruoxing didn't sleep with her before, facing the stubborn Su Yi, she pursed her lips: "Are you sure?"

Su Yi didn't hesitate: "Sure."

Xu Ruoxing nodded: "Okay."

Su Yi was a little happy. She turned around and went back to the hospital bed, patted the place beside her. Xu Ruoxing put down the dry towel, and when she got to the bed, Su Yi grabbed her and sat beside her. Do you sleep on the right or the left?"

Xu Ruoxing recalled the last time and said, "The right side."

Su Yi lifted up the quilt and lay down on the right side, giving up half the size. Although they were thin, the hospital bed was not big, and their arms were still stuck together when they lay side by side. Su Yi was wearing the pajamas she just bought, with new material on her body. The smell, like cotton, blended with the smell of her body milk to form a warm feeling. Xu Ruoxing wanted to turn her body sideways, and her arms were embraced by Su Yi. She lowered her eyes and saw the swirl on the top of Su Yi's hair. The hair still has a fragrance, not the one Su Yi usually uses, but the smell of roses.

The person holding her arm rubbed her pajamas with her cheek, Su Yi raised her head: "Honey, what topic will we talk about before going to bed?"

Xu Ruoxing said, "You don't talk before going to bed."

"Really?" Su Yi said, "I thought I would talk to you a lot before going to bed."

Xu Ruoxing was curious: "Why?"

Su Yi said: "When I was a child, I was alone at home and often talked to the TV."

At that time, she couldn't make phone calls, her parents were not free, and her grandma had to work. Every time she came back from school or on vacation, she would talk to the TV. Assuming that the TV was her friend, Su Yi smiled: "So I Later, I thought, if I have a good friend, I will definitely chat with her often."

Xu Ruoxing didn't know that she and Zhao Yu were getting along on a daily basis, but after a few dinners, Su Yi did say more to Zhao Yu than she did. Su Yi continued: "So I think, I will definitely talk to you a lot. .”

That's not necessarily the case.

Xu Ruoxing thought to himself, maybe you just talk too much to the person you like.

I'm not the person you like.

Xu Ruoxing's voice was a little muffled: "Really?"

Su Yi leaned against her and rubbed against her: "Yes."

Xu Ruoxing didn't speak, Su Yi breathed steadily, leaning on her arm, soft, Xu Ruoxing couldn't help but look down, Su Yi didn't sleep either, so he hugged her arm, his eyes fell on the bedside lamp, the light was warm yellow, isn't it It was very dazzling, Su Yi's eyes kept on looking up, blinking occasionally, the eyelashes cast a small crescent-shaped shadow under the eyes, the atmosphere was quiet, Su Yi's cheek rubbed against Xu Ruoxing's arm, and he closed his eyes after staring for a long time.

The breathing is shallow, long and steady.

When Xu Ruoxing lowered her head again, Su Yi had already fallen asleep. She slept soundly. Xu Ruoxing remembered that Su Yi had a light sleep before, and she would wake up at the slightest movement. Once she and Su Yi attended a party and arranged a hotel, so they slept as they should In one room, she was drunk a lot that night and went to the toilet several times during the night, her movements were very light every time, but every time she opened her eyes Su Yi was still awake, she was extremely sleepy and asked Su Yi: "Why don't you sleep?" ?”

Su Yi said, "I can't sleep."

She thought it was her own problem, and said, "Did I wake you up? I asked the assistant to open another room?"

Su Yi raised her head. She only turned on the bedside lamp when she got up at night. It was starlight and very dark. Su Yi's expression was hidden in the darkness, so she couldn't see clearly, but she could hear her voice clearly. She said, "It's not you who are making noise."

She frowned, and just about to ask, Su Yi was already lying down, it wasn't you arguing, she didn't understand what it meant until she checked out.

But Su Yi was a light sleeper at that time, but now she is sleeping soundly, giving her full trust, Xu Ruoxing looked at her for a while, then slowly withdrew his hand, Su Yi approached her, curled up, his legs squeezed Xu Ruoxing's Legs, subconsciously rely on posture.

Xu Ruoxing was silent for a few seconds, tucked the quilt for her, and stood by the window after getting out of bed. Standing quietly for a long time, she finally returned to the hospital bed, and instead of going to bed to rest, she sat on a chair spread out beside her. There were many unprocessed things on her mobile phone. She looked at Su Yi and lowered her head to deal with it.

The first thing to resolve is the recent lawsuit. Li Chen has dug someone into the Huaihai designer. This is nothing new. It is normal for people in the same industry to be able to accept better jobs, but this design The teacher is a bit special, she signed a one-year contract, and within three years, all works belong to Huaihai, but she didn't tell Li Chen that after she arrived at s x, she handed in the works for the spring payment, and the performance was very good, it was their spring payment. A batch of them were sold out, but the people in Huaihai knew about it. Now they seized this point and proposed to ask s.x to compensate Huaihai for all the turnover of this work. Xu Ruoxing naturally would not agree.

In WeChat, Li Chen posted: [She really didn't tell me, she said she forgot. 】

In fact, they can completely shift the responsibility to this designer, because she can compensate the company for the losses she caused and face Huaihai's lawsuit alone, but Xu Ruoxing didn't do that. She replied to Li Chen: [I'll talk about it when I go back to the company. 】

Li Chen: [Haven't slept yet? It's midnight, where's your wife? 】

Xu Ruoxing: [She's asleep. 】

Li Chen: [Oh—]

It meant a lot, Xu Ruoxing ignored her.

Li Chen posted again: [However, in the past two years in Huaihai, this method has been used a lot. 】

Huaihai has been signing a large number of graduates in the past two years, and the contracts with them are all one-year contracts. In three years, at the lowest price, they can buy the inspiration of these graduates. If there is a designer who is now s.x, they will Just relying on the compensation for this work can make a lot of money.

This kind of dirty trick is really hard for ordinary small companies to deal with. It takes time and effort to go to court, and Huaihai is quite famous in the industry. No small company would be willing to fight with Huaihai for a small designer, and most of them would give up. A designer needs to make some compensation, which is why Huaihai is so unscrupulous and even more insane.

This time, Su Changhe was also specially invited as a legal adviser, which was considered to be enough for s.x.

Li Chenfa: [This time, there are two options, one is that we compensate and fire the designer, we are justified, and we can sell Huaihai a favor. 】

Xu Ruoxing: [What about the second one? 】

Li Chen: 【The second one is the hard line. Of course we can’t do it alone. I have investigated in the past two days. In the past two years, Huaihai has signed many designers who have just graduated. At the beginning, they promised to buy all their manuscripts within three years and pay them accordingly. , but the remuneration is extremely low, and even several have not been paid. If they are willing to stand up, our lawsuit will surely win. 】

But it is not easy to let others stand up. To compete with Huaihai is to compete with one's own job. So many small companies dare not challenge, and few of these fresh graduates are willing to stand up.

Xu Ruoxing said: [Find a good lawyer first, I just checked, there are a few law firms in the North and South that are okay, you go and contact them. 】

Li Chen: [Received. 】

Just as Xu Ruoxing was about to put away his phone, Li Chen sent another message: [Go to sleep, it's late at night, isn't it uncomfortable to hug your wife? 】

Hug Su Yi?

Xu Ruoxing looked at Su Yi, and was silent for a few seconds. Su Yi was sleeping soundly. The bedside lamp shone on her side face. Her facial features were clear, her skin was porcelain white, her forehead was fair, and her eyelids had small outlines. Xu Ruoxing looked from her From the corners of her eyes to the tip of Su Yi's nose, she was very straight, with a few strands of hair sticking to Su Yi's side face, Xu Ruoxing stretched out her hand to help her push the hair behind her ears, and the pulp of her fingers accidentally scratched Su Yi's earlobe, it was soft, Warmth, she hasn't retracted her hand yet, but Su Yi felt itchy, and stretched out her hand unconsciously in her sleep, when her hand touched the back of Xu Ruoxing's hand, she grabbed it and stuck it to her cheek.

Her cheeks were smooth and her skin was delicate. Xu Ruoxing looked down at Su Yi's movements, her eyes were stunned. It took several seconds for her to withdraw her hand from Su Yi's palm. Su Yi still maintained the posture just now, but her palms were empty. Xu Ruoxing pursed her lips and looked down. After a while, she stuffed her hand back into Su Yi's palm and pressed it against Su Yi's cheek.

For the first time, she felt that Su Yi who didn't speak was so soft and warm.
