C16

Standing in the empty elevator, Cheng Tian Hua gloomily stared at his reflection in the elevator wall. His heart was as calm as the ashes.

In fact, she knew very well that the old lady had not done anything wrong. She had even given her an excellent chance to settle the problem of her mother's medical fees. However, he still resented the fact that the other party had forced him into a loveless marriage.

Because she was so engrossed in her thoughts, she didn't even realize that the elevator had crossed the floor she was going to and reached the first floor.

Only when the elevator door opened with a ding did she regain her senses.

Without a word, she pressed the button to go up the stairs again, but the elevator door stayed open.

"Miss Cheng, do you want to get off the elevator or not?" A familiar and magnetic voice rang out, and Cheng Tian Hua finally noticed Shen Mouxi, who was standing in front of the elevator. Shen Moxi, who was standing in front of him, had one hand around his pants pocket while the other hand was holding onto the elevator door. His figure was slender and handsome, and he had a faint smile on his face.

Why was he here? And they just happened to meet each other?

Cheng Tian Hua lightly replied, "No."

"Then I'll go in." Shen Moxi stepped into the room.

However, Cheng Tian instead squeezed out from his side as he walked in, obviously not wanting to ride in the same elevator as him.

"Not going up together?" Shen Moxi raised an eyebrow at her.

However, Cheng Tian picture turned around and went to another elevator.

Shen Muxi pressed the button to close the door and pressed the numbers on the top floor. The elevator went all the way to the top floor. When he walked into the dean's office, Mrs. Shen was happily planning his and Cheng's wedding.

"Grandmother, what makes you so happy?" Shen Moxi walked over to Old Lady Shen and sat down, lifting her slender legs in a relaxed manner.

"Guess?"

"Everything is normal for today's physical examination?"

"More than that." Old Madam Shen smiled sinisterly.

Shen Mu looked at her before looking at Sister Zhang. Sister Zhang smiled and said, "Old lady has already persuaded Cheng Tian Painting to marry you, Young Master Mu."

"Oh, no wonder that woman cried until her eyes swelled to peaches." Shen Muxi lowered his legs and rolled his eyes in annoyance.

"What are you saying? It's like I'm bullying her." Old Lady Shen was unhappy.

"Isn't it?" Shen Mushui asked. He clearly remembered the resolute expression on Cheng Tianwen's face when he rejected him.

"It can't be considered bullying her." Old Madam Shen spoke with a bit of a guilty conscience. After saying that, she smiled and asked, "Have you seen her?"

Shen Mushui nodded.

"Did you tell him you were the one she was going to marry?"

"She didn't even bother to look at me." "You didn't tell her?"

"I wanted to say that she didn't give me a chance." Old Madam Shen had an innocent expression. From the very beginning, she had asked whether the Process Heaven Painting loved Shen Mouxi. She was worried that Cheng Tian Hua would reject her request, so she didn't mention Shen Mouxi. When he wanted to say it, Cheng Tian painting acted as if he didn't care if he was married to a cat or a dog.

"You still refuse to marry? You agreed so quickly? Seriously." Shen Moxi rolled his eyes in annoyance.

Old Madam Shen looked at the time, got up and pushed Shen Moxi out of the office, urging him, "It's time to get off work, hurry up and invite her to dinner, to cultivate their relationship."

"I'm not going." Shen Moxi pulled away from her hands in annoyance.

"Hmm?" The old lady cast a sidelong glance at him and asked, "Have you forgotten how you promised me?"

"…"

The department where Cheng worked was on the sixth floor. As the elevator passed from the top floor to the 15th floor, a young and beautiful female nurse walked in. The nurse was holding a bouquet of bright red roses in her arms. She was smiling sweetly with a blissful expression on her face.

When she stepped into the elevator and saw Shen Moxi leaning lazily on the elevator wall, the smile on her face disappeared and was replaced with a stunned expression.

This man … Isn't he too handsome? A staff member of the hospital? Or...?

When the nurse's heart was beating fast, Shen Moxi smiled at her enchantingly and said, "Miss, what floor are you on?"

The young nurse came back to her senses and pressed the button on the sixth floor. To her surprise, the button on the sixth floor was lit, and the beautiful man in front of her was going to the same floor as her.

"What a coincidence, I'm also going to the sixth floor." She giggled.

"We've met before?" She hesitated before asking again, why did she find this beautiful man before her so familiar?

"I think so." Shen Muxi nodded. If she liked to read the newspapers, she should have seen them. His gaze fell on the rose in the nurse's arms and he smiled. "A boyfriend?"

"No, not …" The nurse shook her head.

He couldn't let this handsome guy know that he already had a boyfriend. He definitely couldn't.

Shen Muxi suddenly leaned forward, reached out and pulled one of the roses out of the bouquet when the nurse didn't expect it, then put it to his nose and sniffed. "The flowers are beautiful, thank you."

Just as the nurse was about to say that he could give her the whole bundle if he liked, the elevator door opened with a "ding" and Shen Muxi led the way out.

The young nurse unconsciously quickened her pace to catch up to Shen Moxi, but was stopped by two young nurses walking towards her. They joked, "Oh, Doctor Peng is sending roses to our Tian Lin again. I'm so envious of him."

"That's right. Dr. Peng is not only good to his patients, but also the best in the world for his girlfriend." Another nurse said with a look of envy.

If it were in the past, Miss Tian Lin would be pleased with her colleagues' envious gazes for the rest of the afternoon, but today … Looking at Shen Moxi who had already walked far away, she couldn't wait to sew their mouths shut with needle and thread.

As soon as he left his post, he would immediately resume his duties. It was inevitable that he would be criticized by others.

Cheng Tian Painting ignored the bad voice beside him as though it was nothing. The heart that had experienced many vicissitudes of life in his body had long since become as calm as still water. In a situation where one's body and soul could be sold, what was reputation worth?

As if in anger, the newspaper with her and Shen Muxi's photographs of them had been lying untouched in the corner of the table.

"Sky Painting, let's go eat together." His colleague Qin Li called out.

"We're going too." Xiao Song and Fangzi opened their mouths at the right time.

"Sure, I'll treat you guys." Cheng Tian gave them a smile.

In this large office, there were still some colleagues who genuinely cared about her.

It had been two or three years since she'd worked with them, and she'd never had a meal because of financial difficulties.

Soon she would be married to the grandson of Arne's chairman. She would no longer have to worry about her mother's medical expenses and no longer have to pay the rent.

However, her vision blurred out bit by bit …

Did she cry? No, with such a beautiful future before her, how could she cry?

She closed her eyes and forced the tears to subside.

The fragrance of roses seeped into his nose. It was very faint, very familiar, and also very unfamiliar …

Familiar, because before marriage, Lin Yuan always flattered and gave it to her. It was strange, because ever since their marriage, they had not received a single rose from Lin Yuan for three whole years.

"Darling, what would you like to eat tonight?" A magnetic male voice sounded.

Cheng Tiantao suddenly opened his eyes. A delicate red rose was reflected in her eyelids, then the handsome face that she would never want to see again, with an evil smile.

What did he call her? Darling? In front of so many doctors and nurses?

"What are you doing here?" She looked at him coldly, her voice angry.

"You still need to ask? Of course I'm here to pick you up from work." Shen Moxi handed the rose in his hand over to her, a charming smile on his face as he said, "For you."

At the nurse's station on the other side of the office, the arms holding the bouquet of roses were slowly tightening and her face was stiff. She never thought that Shen Moxi was here to look for Cheng Tian Hua.

"Isn't that the man from the newspaper named Shen Mushui?" A nurse whispered.

It was only then that Tian Lin realized why she felt that this man looked so familiar. He was the man in the newspaper who only showed his face when he was having an extramarital affair.

Cheng Tian Painting took a deep breath. Even though she was trying her best to control her anger, she couldn't bear it any longer and snatched the rose from Shen Mubai's hands and threw it at his face. She coldly said, "Scram for me! "Immediately!"

The rose had thorns, slicing through the skin of Shen Mushi's face.

Shen Muxi frowned, thinking to himself, This woman … Violent and difficult.

"Scram!" Cheng Tian Hua roared at him, pushing him towards the door while angrily saying, "Next time if you come here, I'll definitely call the police and make you suffer the consequences of your actions."

"Hello …" I can walk by myself, I don't need you to push me, I can walk by myself … Why are you so barbaric, woman? "I was already rather gentle and pretty when I was in bed, how did I get under the bed …"

'Bang! 'a loud sound was heard.

While his colleagues were still in shock and heated discussion, Cheng Tiantong threw a slap in Shen Mouxi's face. Of course, this time she missed, her raised palm colliding with his palm in the air before he caught her.

He was doing it intentionally to punish her so that she wouldn't be able to lift her head up in front of her colleagues.

Was this damn man unreconciled to not destroy her?

She looked at him and spoke through gritted teeth. "Can you really be happy and satisfied by destroying a woman who is not in the least damaged?"

"Violent Madman, whoever marries you will be in trouble in this life." Shen Muxi shook off her hand in annoyance, turned around, and walked away in the direction of the elevator.

Looking at his departing back, Cheng Tian's nerves finally relaxed. Turning his head to scan the surroundings, there were quite a few onlookers.

Before Shen Moxi came, she could very firmly say that the article was fabricated and the photos were taken out of context. But now, after Shen Moxi said those words, even Little Song and Fang Zi would not believe her anymore.
