When You’re Gone

Wen Mingting hadn't climbed the stairs like this for a long time, and the air was full of the smell of dust.

On each floor, there will always be words from people close to the corridor, and most of them are unintelligible words.

This building has the shadow of Chungking Mansions in Tsim Sha Tsui.

But Aunt May, this woman, she must meet.

A few minutes later, Wen Mingting arrived at the rusty security door.

She raised her hand and knocked on the door, but no one answered.

I knocked it several times, all with the same result.

The door next door suddenly opened, and a woman in a dress with bare arms walked out carrying a basin, and then directly poured a basin of water from the balcony downstairs, her actions were simply and neat.

When I turned around, I saw Wen Mingting, the other person's eyes were very alert, and his eyes looked closely.

For the people here, Wen Mingting's dress is incompatible with here.

Although she only wears daily attire and does not wear any jewellery on her body, the overall temperament of her whole person is very different from here.

The woman crooked her mouth, shook the remaining drops of water in the basin carelessly, raised her chin and said, "Who are you?"

Those who live in this place will not be in this attitude.

And this place is also slightly "like" outsiders come in.

Wen Mingting looked down at the water flowing down the tiles to the toe of her shoes. She stood a step aside, raised her eyes and looked at the closed door in front of her, "Do you know where this family has gone?"

The middle-aged woman was very alert. She raised the eyebrows that were sharpened by the eyebrow trimmer so that there were few hairs, and asked instead, "Who are you?"

"I have something to do with her." Wen Mingting said.

"It's really strange, there are still people looking for her?"

Wen Mingting squinted his eyes, carrying a bag in both hands, and there was already some impatient emotion in his eyes.

The woman took a sip towards the door, then raised her triangular eyes and looked at Wen Mingting slantingly, with a very frivolous tone, "She may have gone out to find a man. You really want to see her, just wait here."

After speaking, the woman added another sentence, covering her mouth, "It's estimated that her men are crooked melons and jujubes. It's so fast, you won't be able to wait long."

Before Wen Mingting had any reaction, the woman opened the door of her house and went in, and then closed the door with a bang.

And Wen Mingting's face was already ugly.

She stood on the balcony, suppressing her anger and shock.

At this moment, I am even more annoyed for my initial look.

At first, I was anxious, and I was afraid that Gu Han would be born with those actor's ways, and even more afraid that he would not marry the vegetative person, so she lost her judgment when she first saw Liang Shu.

I knew it now, I shouldn't have...

Later Aunt Mei came back.

There was the sound of high-heeled shoes clattering in the corridor, listening to the sound of unsteady steps, walking and stopping, she walked for about thirty steps for five minutes.

When she went upstairs, she saw Wen Mingting standing in the corridor.

Aunt Mei was stunned. She was holding a mobile phone in one hand and a cigarette in the other. She was wearing a black gold silk embroidered cheongsam. The flowers stretched from the neckline to the slit of the cheongsam.

Her eyes only stayed on Wen Mingting for about a few seconds, and then she passed her, digging out the key from her bag and preparing to open the door.

Wen Mingting immediately followed and stood beside Aunt Mei.

Aunt Mei paused when she opened the door. She let go of the key, took off the cigarette from her mouth, and turned to look at Wen Mingting.

It was Wen Mingting's mouth.

"Are you A Shu's aunt?" The questioning words were in a statement tone.

With just this sentence, both parties understand.

Aunt Mei lifted her chin slightly, with makeup still on her face, her hair curled into a cloud, followed by the bun line, and snaked behind her ears, making her look a little bit depressed.

She sneered, and threw the cigarette **** in her hand. The toe of her shoe stepped directly on the cigarette **** and spit out two words, "Rare."

Soon, Aunt Mei opened the door, she walked in first, and stood at the door looking at Wen Mingting, "Please come in."

Wen Mingting's frowning eyebrows were never loosened. She looked down at the cigarette **** that was trampled on by Aunt Mei, with a look of disgust, then raised her foot and walked in.

Wen Mingting no longer wanted to see what was inside.

Aunt Mei took a disposable paper cup and poured her a glass of water on the table, "There is only boiled water, so let's drink it."

The water was warm and Mingting didn't drink, so she put the bag on the table.

She sat down on the red-lacquered stool on the tabletop, clasped her hands on her knees, and then raised her eyes to look at Aunt Mei, and said, "You can probably also guess the purpose of my coming."

Aunt Mei sat down on the sofa and slid her phone without looking up.

Wen Mingting's face was even colder. She said, "A Shu has always lived in such a place?"

When the words were over, Aunt Mei threw the phone in her hand aside.

Her tone is not very good, "What's wrong with being here all the time? Don't everyone walk in two meters of air, who is more noble than whom?"

"Of course I don't mean it. People who are clean and self-loving can get out of the mud and not dye anywhere, but the Gu family can't accept such a daughter-in-law. I hope you can persuade A Shu to take the initiative to divorce, then I can assume that nothing happened, even I can also give you a very objective amount of money."

"This lady really thinks too much. You see people like us. Once they climb into the rich, there is no reason to take the initiative to let go. How much money can you unilaterally give us? Let her be Mrs. Gu. How much money?" Aunt Mei laughed lightly.

Wen Mingting was already irritated, and her eyes became pierced a lot.

She tightened the corners of her lips, "I'm giving you a choice, and I don't want to tear your face right away, so that everyone can reserve a little bit of leeway."

"There is no more room, just say anything if you want." Aunt Mei leaned on the sofa and looked at Wen Mingting.

Wen Mingting straightened her back and said, "Gu's daughter-in-law must have an innocent family background and a good personal conduct. You are her aunt. I don't need to say what kind of career you are. As for A Shu herself, she is a socialite in the circle, and she has no character. In other words, such a person must never enter Gu's door!"

"The exposure of her life experience now has a great impact on Gu. If you let her divorce, I promise that this can be resolved very well. By then, I can be satisfied if you want to leave here to go abroad or live in other places. you guys."

"But if you don't realize it, I promise you won't get a share of Gu's money, and it won't be any good for you in the end."

After listening, Aunt Mei sneered, "You might as well do your son's ideological work."

Wen Mingting raised his face slightly, "If you can take the initiative to withdraw, this is of course the best. Han Sheng is not willing to be this bad person, then I will come as a mother."

"Then go to her directly, I will treat her as dead now." Aunt Mei shook out a cigarette from the cigarette case beside her and clamped it on her fingertips.

At this time, Wen Mingting stood up suddenly, she curled her lips and sneered again, "I didn't expect that you are really two-sided in this business. What kind of normal values ​​can such a person establish for the younger generation? I will look for it from A Shu. she was."

Aunt Mei looked at the direction of the door, "It's easy to go, don't send it."

When Wen Mingting walked to the door, Aunt Mei looked at Wen Mingting's back and added, "When you see her, remember to tell her and treat her as if I am dead, thank you."

After the door was completely closed, Aunt Mei took a look at the mobile phone on the side.

…

Liang Shu listened to the entire recording.

The cold began to rise from the soles of the feet and rushed into the forehead all the time.

She felt as if she was struck in an instant, holding on to the stool and trying to sit down, but Aunt Mei said to the side, "The stool you have sat on is the one she sat on that day. I'm afraid she was too disgusted with it later. Like I hate you."

Then Liang Shu tilted his body and fell straight to the ground.

There was a sharp pain in the knee, tears fell drop by drop, and a ball of water condensed on the dark floor.

She has hardly enjoyed the care from the elders of the family in her life. Maybe she has, but she has never had it like her mother.

For her, Wen Mingting is like a mother.

Wen Mingting cared about her, humbled her warmth, and treated her like a mother.

None of these are fake.

And the current rupture and disgust are not fake.

Liang Shu feels that she can fully understand that Wen Mingting can treat the Gu family's daughter-in-law with endless warmth, but she has always been from the Gu family's perspective.

Everything is done from the family.

But I still feel very disappointed, even very painful.

Originally Liang Shu was still looking forward to it, expecting Wen Mingting for so long, but asking her about it because she was afraid that she would be upset and upset, but she didn't expect that this elegant and gentle old lady showed her edge after all.

Aunt Mei lifted her fingertips and pressed her eyes, and looked down at her, "Your marriage has nothing to do with me, so it has nothing to do with me. How do you choose to look at yourself, but A Shu, the world of those people is ours? Can't melt in."

"No matter what reason you are with him, if you let yourself sink in, then you are stupid! Then no matter what the result is in the future, you deserve it!"

Aunt Mei walked past her, turned and went into the bedroom.

The moment the door closed, Aunt Mei held the door frame and looked at her, "You didn't listen to what I taught you, so don't come to me in the future, don't notify me if you die!"

Liang Shu lowered his eyes and smiled.

It's ironic.

It makes sense from everyone's point of view.

But she still doesn't want to give up this marriage. Before Su Yan wakes up, she still wants to give it a try.

Aunt May said it was stupid to let herself sink in. Yes, she seemed to be stupid.

In the world of emotions, whoever is serious first loses.

But Liang Shu feels that she is not a complete failure now, at least she still has Gu Hansheng, doesn't she?

Others say that she is very bad. It is impossible for her and Gu Hansheng. Even if everyone is against it, isn't Gu Hansheng still?

In this case, then the others are nothing.

She still had to find the ring, hand it over to Lu Jinsheng, and then take care of what was in front of her first.

But Liang Shu couldn't find it.

She rummaged in her room for a long time, and found all the corners, but there was no trace of the ring.

Gu Hansheng called her midway, but Liang Shu didn't answer it.

She was afraid that he would hear her own voice, and she was even more afraid that she would think of the old lady when she talked to him.

Those words of the old lady are really hurtful.

But she still sent a text message to Gu Hansheng, saying that it was not convenient for her aunt to talk on the phone next to her.

Then she left Bessen Road.

She has to go back to the mansion as soon as possible and look for it again.

…

On the way back alone, Liang Shu had a car accident.

Her car rear-ended a car ahead.

The other is a mother and daughter, and the daughter is about the same age as her.

The other party seemed to be a full upstart, wearing very gold and expensive. The middle-aged woman wore several rings on her hands. There were several varieties of gold jade.

This incident is indeed Liang Shu's fault.

She was in a trance, and her mind was filled with so many things that she didn't slow down in time when approaching the traffic light, and it was too late to find out.

The car had hit it straight.

But she was very anxious, the green light lit up in time, Liang Shu hesitated for a few seconds, she put up reverse gear, and then wanted to get into the lane next to her.

She has to go back to find the ring.

As soon as the front of the car left the front rear, the faces of the mother and daughter appeared in front of them.

Protrusive and fierce, like two tigresses.

Liang Shu was stunned, and then closed his eyes resigning.

She lay on the car window, a big hole was empty in her heart, and the blood flowed out.

The windows of the car were snapped, and Liang Shu almost just pressed the central control lock, and the driver's door was opened from the outside.

Then she was arrogantly pulled out of the seat by the mother and daughter.

The jewel-dressed middle-aged woman pointed at her and sneered at her, "What's the matter with you woman? Do you want to run after hitting our car? Do you think we are a bully? If you cause trouble, do you still want to run? I want to escape, let me tell you, there are no doors!"

Liang Shu pressed her head, her long hair covered most of the expression on her face.

The middle-aged woman was still not relieved, and she reached out to poke Liang Shu's forehead, but was avoided by Liang Shu.

She shook off the middle-aged woman's daughter's hand hard, and slammed the car door shut.

The middle-aged woman glared with anger, "You **** still dare to resist, do you know how expensive my car is? You drive this broken car and crash my car and want to run, right? I have to today. Pack you up!"

Liang Shu raised his head, stretched his hand to brush the hair on his face, and turned his head to look at the car in front of them.

It was a Porsche Cayenne, the most expensive turbo at the time, with a price of more than 2 million and a maintenance cost of tens of thousands a year.

And her car was a BMW three-series. According to the female daughter of Yulouchun at the time, she had a low cost of 240,000 yuan. She bought it for tens of thousands of dollars at the time.

Now that several years have passed, I am afraid that it has already been devalued.

With that said, Liang Shu does indeed seem to be in serious trouble.

The young woman pulled Liang Shu's hair, but was caught off guard to see the corners of her wounded mouth and half of her face swollen, but even so, it could still be vaguely seen that Liang Shu's face was beautiful.

Liang Shu hated people pulling her hair like this, so she knocked out the young woman's hand and looked at her coldly.

"Don't be someone else's junior. It really deserves to be beaten up like this. I have to teach you today. Don't worry, I will work harder to make sure that both sides of your face look the same!"

As he said, the other party would raise his hand.

Liang Shu looked cold, raised his hand to intercept her hand, and then squeezed it firmly.

The painful face of the young woman was wrinkled into a bitter melon color. When the middle-aged woman saw that her daughter had been bullied, she also stepped forward, trying to rescue her daughter from Liang Shu.

Who knows, Liang Shu threw her daughter on the door of the car and shot her eyes like an arrow. "When there was a traffic accident, the police officer's uncle will naturally come out to judge. You dare to do it. Then I will ask you to pay a share of the compensation. Can't get it!"

The young woman was shocked by the coldness in Liang Shu's eyes, and she was silent for a while.

At this time, many people gathered around.

Originally it was close to the crossroads, except for such things, everyone gathered around to watch the excitement.

No one came forward, they were all around the edge, and some even took out their mobile phones and started taking pictures.

At this moment, the middle-aged woman cried and yelled at one of the passers-by’s cellphones: "Everyone is going to testify for us. This woman is defiant. She hit our car and wanted to escape. We stopped her and gave her a toe. We are so arrogant to punish us, we are too wronged!"

"Is there any reason? She looks pretty, and she was slapped by someone. Maybe it was the mistress mistress of a rich man. Please look carefully. If it is really a mistress, let's treat her I'll find it out, so as not to harm the society again!"

At this moment, Liang Shu has become a target of public criticism.

She is being looked at by everyone, guessing.

Suddenly, a voice erupted from the crowd: "Just say she is very familiar! I think she is very similar to Mrs. Gu who had a scandal recently. That's right, she must be Mrs. Gu!"

The words inadvertently exploded from the crowd like a thunder.

The upstart mother and daughter were shocked at the same time and cast unbelievable glances at Liang Shu.

And soon, the scene will be out of control.

The number of people taking pictures of the three of them is countless, and the discussion is getting louder.

Liang Shu pulled the young woman away in the contempt of everyone, then opened the car door and sat in, neatly locked.

She isolated a space, but couldn't isolate the eyes of those outside.

The abuse of mothers and daughters from the upstarts outside came in through the car window, "It turns out that you are the woman who has fallen to the bottom of online reviews. Is a woman like you really Mrs. Gu?"

"Have you been dumped by Mr. Gu? Otherwise, since you are Mr. Gu's person, how could he let you drive by yourself? Even if you drive by yourself, why is it still such a broken car?"

The person outside was patting the window of the car.

Sitting in the seat, Liang Shu stared at the crowd surrounding her with dizzy eyes, and slowly closed his eyes.

"You open the door, get out, you're a street mouse that everyone yells and beats, aren't you a sociable? There must be many men in your hand. It doesn't matter if you are thrown by Mr. Gu, just go and find other men. ?"

Someone sneered: "She is like this now, but she still has a beautiful face and a good figure. It may be possible to be a wealthy man's mistress for a lifetime!"

The crowd burst into laughter.

At this time, the traffic police rushed over and began to disperse the crowd.

But to no avail, the traffic in this place has been paralyzed because of this rear-end collision.

Traffic police can only circle a safe range in front of them.

They knocked on Liang Shu's car window and tried to get her out of the car, but she kept lying on the steering wheel, motionless.

There were more and more ridicules around, and some words were very ugly.

Everyone thought that Liang Shu had already been dumped by Gu Hansheng, so some words were even more obscured.

Until ten minutes later, a **** engine sounded in the air, and everyone looked at the sound—

I saw a black Rolls-Royce Phantom squeezed into the crowd and slowly parked behind the BMW three-series.

The originally noisy scene suddenly became silent.

In sight, I saw that the door of the driver's seat was opened from the inside, and then an expensive handmade leather shoe stepped on the ground.
