After I washed off my heavy makeup, the aloof CEO regretted it

Xiao Nian is smart and beautiful, but unfortunately her life is not very good.

First, marry that old man and become a stepmother to someone else's child.

Now, she is widowed at a young age.

At first, she said she couldn't get married, but her daughter refused to listen...

No one knows the bitterness of a single woman better than she does.

Although my daughter is not short of money and is better off than she was back then, she is inevitably lonely.

Not having a husband around means you have no one to rely on, and you don't interact much with your parents' family. If you encounter any troubles, you don't even have anyone to discuss them with.

I don’t know if anyone bullied Xiao Nian or if she is doing well recently.

Alas, she is just such a precious daughter, living alone outside, how can she relax?

"I am leaving."

After saying these words, Gu Nian seemed to be unable to stay any longer and walked out the door without looking back.

Mother Gu chased her out while putting on her down jacket, and suggested uneasily:

"One of the voice-activated lights is broken. Mom, please take you downstairs!"

Gu Nian walked quickly up the steps and walked downstairs while impatiently refusing:

"No, if you give it away again, I'll get angry."

Although the other party is not an old man, he is not as good as a young man.

The steps here are very steep and the light on the second floor is broken. If you accidentally drop it, it's no joke.

"Okay, then I won't give it away. Be careful when going down the stairs and use your mobile phone to take a photo.

Also, the location here is remote and far from the main road. It is best to make a phone call and ask the driver to pick you up.

Mom is very happy today. I hope you can come here often when you have time - no matter what you are doing near my house, you can stop by and sit down. Don’t forget it! "

Gu Nian had already gone down to the first floor, and could still hear Gu's mother's shouts echoing in the empty corridor.

After exiting the unit door, she leaned against the door frame and closed her eyes.

Don't stab her with a love knife.

Gu Nian has always been calm and calm, and can handle almost all kinds of people and situations clearly.

In the previous experience of traveling through books, several male supporting actors also liked her as a supporting female character.

Among them there are many rich and handsome people who are affectionate and dedicated, but she has never been in his heart. She flatly refuses every time and never drags her feet, and she shows no regrets when she leaves.

Now, I can’t even remember what they looked like.

In addition, I also made some bad friends.

Most of them were cannon fodder who gave her bad ideas on how to instigate a relationship between the male and female protagonists, so she didn't take it to heart.

Occasionally, I will sympathize with the tragic characters in the book and lament their life full of hardships and twists and turns, but I can always look at everything from the perspective of a bystander, keep a calm mind, and play my role well.

Only this time...she really couldn't bear it anymore.

Several times, I almost burst into tears.

Mother Gu's love for her daughter is reflected in every word, deed, and action, which makes her unable to remain moved.

Just now at the dinner table, Gu's mother mentioned the heroine's childhood.

She had had similar experiences before.

Being reminded like this by the other party, I couldn't help but think of my mother.

At that time, she was only two or three years old and didn't know martial arts yet.

He is small and is most afraid of small animals.

One year, when I went back to my hometown in the countryside with my mother, I was chased and pecked by a big goose.

She was so frightened that she ran around holding her head and shouted: "Mom, help me!"

My mother, who was cooking in the house, heard the shouting and immediately ran out with a spatula in hand and drove the goose away for her.

At that time, she also clapped her hands happily and praised her mother loudly...

I don’t know what my mother is doing at this moment.

My father is very busy at work and works overtime almost every day. Presumably, she was having dinner alone again!

At that time, Gu Nian couldn't help but think about this while looking at the table of dishes. The more he thought about it, the sadder he became.

If you don't leave, your emotions may get out of control.

In fact, she didn't plan to stay long.

First, it doesn’t match the character. Secondly, the stepfather took his son to who knows where.

I guess I didn't even eat dinner.

She had been occupying the magpie's nest, not allowing them to return to her home, and wandering around hungry, how could she be content?

Five minutes later, Gu Nian, who barely adjusted her mood, turned her head and looked around, then walked to a small warehouse to buy.

Soon, he returned to the unit.

He quietly came to the second floor, stacked two bricks and stepped on them flexibly, took out the broken old light bulb, and replaced it with the new light bulb he just bought.

After doing all this, she tightened the scarf around her neck, put her hands in her pockets and left the building.

Snow is still falling.

Soft or strong lights shine through the glass windows upstairs.

It complements the bright moonlight in the sky.

At this time, every family was sitting together to have dinner. There was heavy snow falling outside, so naturally there were no pedestrians on the road.

It was quiet all around, except for the occasional roar of machinery coming from the distant construction site, and no other sounds could be heard.

Gu Nian walked calmly and calmly through the dark old-fashioned residential area. Expensive boots made a rhythmic rustling sound on the thick snow.

Since the soles are made of the best non-slip material, every step is smooth and secure.

When she reached the entrance of an alley, her steps suddenly paused.

Probably someone's house nearby was being renovated, and some wooden boards were piled on the ground.

The girl looked around and saw that the alley was dark without a trace of light. She wondered if there were any other debris blocking the way.

In order to avoid tripping, she followed her caregiver's instructions before she left, took out her mobile phone and opened the screen to illuminate it.

After all, she has been practicing boxing since she was a child. Her body is more agile than ordinary people and she can walk extremely fast.

In less than a minute, they walked out of the long and narrow alley.

The road next became much wider and there were more street lights.

Walking a dozen steps further, you will find a busy road, and the car is parked on the side of the road.

Gu Nian was about to put the phone back into his coat pocket when a low voice of conversation suddenly came to his ears.

"Brother Zhang, are you looking for me?"

"Yes, I have nothing else to do with you. I just want to inform you that I won't come tomorrow."

This was a conversation between two men. The one who spoke first had a young voice, while the other had a slightly hoarse and deep voice. He was probably a middle-aged man.

Gu Nian slowly raised his eyelids, glanced in the direction of the sound, and found a few people standing in a corner not far away.

With the help of the dim moonlight and the light of the street lights, we could vaguely see that they were all wearing safety helmets on their heads and construction team vests on their bodies.

One of them held a cigarette between his fingers, and the light at the top flickered, on and off.

Judging from his attire, he must be a construction worker from several nearby construction sites.

From what they said, it sounded like a foreman was firing people.

Most of the people who work on the construction site are short-term workers, and it is normal to come and go.

Gu Nian didn't pay much attention to this. After looking away, he put his phone away and continued walking forward.

But then I heard the young man speak:

"why?"

Listening carefully, the voice is clear and clean, very pleasant to the ear.
