Shi Lishu is a famous workaholic. In recent years, the company is getting bigger and bigger. She is really harder than a man.

She no longer has to attend some social events in person unless she has a top client like today.

The two sat at the negotiating table, and each one wanted to win the best interests, and there was an inevitable fight.

But Shi Lishu found that this person seemed to be unable to make a decision.

While making a phone call, he communicated with Shi Lishu.

She held the wine glass with her finger, and she felt a little displeased, "If you can't represent your company, then ask the person behind you who gives advice to come over directly. Isn't it more sincere to talk face to face?"

The man passed her words to the people over there, but there was a reply soon.

"He said he didn't want to see Mr. Shi."

Shi Lishu wanted to push the chair away and get up, but the business had reached its last step. If she gave up, she would not be willing to give up.

"Mr. Shi, why don't you think about it again? If you agree, you can sign the contract today."

Shi Lishu looked tense and didn't say anything.

"I'll go to the bathroom first." After the man said that, he got up and left. Shi Lishu sat alone in the private room, not noticing that the private room door was closed.

The windows are open, and Shi Lishu doesn't like the smell of the closed box.

The light suddenly flashed a few times, and as soon as she raised her head, the light went out.

Maybe something went wrong with the hotel route, Shi Lishu got up and wanted to call the waiter.

A ball of fire suddenly burst into the window, and when it landed, it was accompanied by a burst of explosions. It should be that the bottle with the fire was broken.

There was a blanket under the table, and the pungent smell rushed towards Shi Lishu, and the blanket fell in an instant.

She staggered back, her legs hitting the chair.

Shi Lishu came to the door and tried to open it, but found that the door was still motionless.

"Help, it's on fire, help-"

Shi Lishu beat the door panel with her hands, "Let me go out."

The blanket burned harder and worse, but the door was opened soon. Shi Lishu rushed out with a pale face. She leaned against the wall of the corridor, pointing her trembling fingers into the box.

"It's on fire."

"Mr. Shi, are you okay?"

The man who came back from the bathroom looked anxious, "What's going on? Where did the fire come from?"

Shi Lishu saw someone coming in with a fire extinguisher. The fire was not big and it was sprayed out in just a few seconds.

She clasped the collar tightly, as if she was very afraid of fire. Shi Lishu turned her head and was about to leave. Seeing this, the man chased after him.

"Mr. Shi, we haven't finished the talk yet, why don't we change the place..."

Shi Lishu walked out of the hotel quickly as if she hadn't heard it.

She didn't call the driver, she walked forward in dismay. Shi Lishu was scared and sweated all over, and then she felt her limbs were weak.

She wasn't afraid that the fire would burn her to death, she just felt an indescribable sense of fear.

As soon as she saw the fire, she would think of the coldness and fear she felt at the funeral home at that time.

She hugged her arms and walked forward. It was already dark and there were no pedestrians on the road. Shi Lishu walked very slowly, and this was not the direction to go home.

She couldn't deceive herself. When she saw the fire, she thought of Shen Jiaxu.

Those three words, even after so long, were still torturing her like a nightmare.

As Shi Lishu walked, the lights on the roadside seemed to get darker and darker. She didn't notice it too much until there seemed to be footsteps behind her.

Shi Lishu didn't look back and walked faster and faster, but the man also followed him very quickly.

She was a little panicked now and took out her cell phone and wanted to call someone.

Suddenly there was a numbness on her shoulders. She was hit and her cell phone slammed into the ground.

Shi Lishu immediately decided that she had met a bad person.

"Help--"

The man bent down and picked up her cell phone and handed it to her, "Sorry, I was accidentally."

Shi Lishu calmed down, "Aren't you following me?"

"Of course not. This is my only way home. I just came out of the subway station in front."

Shi Lishu took the phone and her clothes seemed to be soaked.

She breathed out, "It's okay."

The man walked forward a few steps, but suddenly stopped.

The night was dark, and Shi Lishu couldn't see the expression on the man's face clearly, and only heard the voices clearly. "Mrs. Chen, you should avoid walking around the night, be careful to run into a ghost."

Shi Lishu suddenly felt the man's face become ferocious, like a monster with fangs spreading.

She turned around and ran away. Shi Lishu was still wearing high heels. She didn't dare to stop at all. She heard that she heard the man calling her Mrs. Shen.

The high heels were almost thrown off, and Shi Lishu ran out far away and called the driver.

After getting into the car, she hurriedly urged, "Hurry, drive quickly."

"Mr. Shi, what's wrong with you?"

"Hurry up and leave here."

"yes."

The driver increased the speed of the car. As soon as he got home, Shi Lishu's feeling of impatience and anxiety improved a lot.

Shi’s mother was making donkey-hide gelatin cake in the kitchen. She leaned against the door and looked at it, “Mom, if you want to eat, I can buy it for you.”

"How can I feel at ease when I make it myself?"

As Shi's mother said, put down what she had in her hand, she walked to Shi Lishu and asked hesitantly: "Are you busy these two days?"

"busy."

"There is always time to have a meal with me, right?"

"Is there anything that can't be said at home? Don't go around the corner."

"I was really uncomfortable with the things I praised back then. The child left so miserably..."

Shi Lishu finally calmed down and became anxious again, "Okay, what are you talking about?"

"I want to take Hengheng to the cemetery to worship. He always asks where his father is, he always needs to know."

"Mom," Shi Lishu refused directly when she heard this, "He is still young, don't scare him!"

"He doesn't understand, I..."

Shi Lishu had a split headache, "Wait a little longer, will he be able to grow up?"

Shi's mother knew her temper, and she disagreed, and no matter how many good things she said, it would be useless.

Shi Lishu returned to the living room and just sat down on the sofa when she was hugged by a little boy.

"Mother."

Shi Lishu hugged him and asked him to sit on her lap.

"Hengheng, my good son, are you good in kindergarten today?"

"How good," the little boy raised a finger, "I ate a full bowl of rice, and the teacher praised me for being great."

"My son is great, mom kisses you!"

Shi Lishu's eyes were full of tenderness and she kissed her son's cheek.

Hengheng smiled and hid, "Mom, itchy."

The two were making a fuss on the sofa, and Hengheng kept hiking into her arms, "Did mom drink?"

"No, mom promised you to drink less, I didn't even touch you today."

"You can be good at this." The little boy is very sensible and considerate, which makes Shi Lishu both relieved and guilty.
