Chapter 145 How am I qualified to quarrel with her
"Can I ask what your original name was? If you don't want to tell me, forget it." It was the first time Lin Xu heard that Ji Yuqiao had changed her name. I couldn't help but wonder about this matter.
"My previous name was..."
The words Ji Lanyue rang together with the ringtone of the mobile phone.
Beside the quiet little lake, the ringing sounded suddenly like an explosion, frightening Lin Xu's heart.
She patted her chest, and it took a while to calm down her pounding heart. "I didn't hear clearly what you just said."
"It's okay, you answer the phone first." Ji Yuqiao said .
Lin Xu nodded. As soon as he connected the phone, Ji Tingyang's urgent voice came from the other end.
"Mother, why haven't you come back yet? It's almost twelve o'clock. Where are you now? I'll pick you up!"
"I didn't tell you before I went out, it's just Come out to meet your friends?" Lin Xu said.
"...Which friend are you meeting and why you still don't go home so late?" Ji Tingyang carefully probed, and several times wanted to ask her directly if she was meeting Xie Changyan.
Originally when Lin Xu was going out at night, Ji Tingyang also wanted to go with him.
As a result, Lin Xu asked him to go upstairs to help get some clothes. When he came downstairs, the person was gone.
Ji Tingyang was angry and anxious.
He had been holding back until now. Seeing that it was almost past twelve o'clock, he finally couldn't hold back and called.
As a result, before he said a few words, Lin Xu hung up the phone neatly, "Don't worry, I'll go back in a while, so for now."
Ji Yuqiao vaguely heard what was happening on the other end. The voice seemed to be urging Lin Xu to go home.
She glanced at the time and looked surprised, "Is your family telling you to go home? Then go back quickly. I forgot to look at the time. I didn't know it was so late."
"But..."
"I'm fine now, please go home quickly."
Ji Yuqiao also urged her to get on, pushing and pulling the reluctant Lin Xu into the taxi.
It wasn't until the taxi disappeared from sight that Ji Yuqiao turned around and walked slowly towards the dormitory.
On the way back to the dormitory, she thought of Xiao Yu again, and her eyes filled with tears again.
On the same night, not only one person was sad.
The bar late at night is the time of feasting and feasting.
Su Linzhou had just said goodbye to the beauties and returned to the booth when he saw Xie Changyan, who was drinking heavily.
"I asked you to come to the bar before, but you were not willing. Why are you willing to come now, and you just hide in the corner and drink?" Su Linzhou sat down, tutted and shook his head, "There are so many beauties here. "It's so boring to drink dry."
Xie Changyan looked at the wine glass on the table, his long white fingertips slowly traced the rim of the glass, and his slightly drooped eyelashes blocked his brown eyes, making it difficult to see. Looking at the look in his eyes, the air pressure around him was extremely low, making people shudder.
After a while, he picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.
“You just drank a strong drink of more than fifty degrees?” Su Linzhou was dumbfounded. He moved closer to Xie Changyan and asked quietly, “Are you worried about something? ”
Xie Changyan remained silent.
"Is it...about Lin Xu?" Su Linzhou asked cautiously.
Xie Changyan has outstanding abilities. He has made extraordinary achievements in business at a young age, and has led Xie to a higher level.
Everyone said that he was extremely talented and had never been frustrated in the first half of his life.
Now that this proud man of heaven has become so depressed, Su Linzhou seems to be unable to think of any other reason besides Lin Xu.
As expected, after hearing this name, Xie Changyan's face tensed up, and his face became more and more gloomy like the night sky shrouded in haze.
“Could it be that you didn’t pry the corner?!” Su Linzhou exclaimed. As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Changyan's body pressure became a little colder.
Su Linzhou swallowed, feeling that his guess was almost accurate.
"This... there is no grass anywhere in the world, otherwise you should give up?" Su Linzhou advised.
The manic and depressive aura kept rising in his eyes, Xie Changyan closed his eyes and rubbed the bridge of his nose.
After a long time, when he opened his eyes again, the emotion in his eyes had turned calm.
He stood up, picked up the coat on the side and put it on his arm casually, and walked straight to the door.
"The nightlife has just begun. Why are you going back so early? If you hang around here more, maybe you will find another piece of grass soon!" Su Linzhou's voice came from behind.
The Xie family.
The light in the living room was still on.
As soon as Xie Changyan entered the door, he saw Xie Mingwang sitting on the sofa with a sullen face.
"Grandpa, why aren't you asleep yet?" Xie Changyan casually put his coat on the hanger and said leisurely, "I'm going back to the room first. You should rest early."
"Wait. "Just a moment!" Xie Mingwang called to him.
Xie Mingwang looked at him, frowning.
From a distance, I could smell the smell of alcohol emanating from him.
"You came back so late, what were you doing?"
"Where else could you go besides drinking?" Xie Changyan twitched the corners of his lips and spoke in a casual tone.
“Really?” Xie Mingwang was suspicious.
Xie Changyan seemed to know what he was thinking, and sneered, "Don't worry, the last time I come back late these days I go to the bar, not because of meeting her."
Xie Mingwang seemed to have been seen through, and coughed awkwardly, "I just saw that you came back so late these days, so I was worried about you."
"I am such an adult, what do I have to worry about? You should worry more about your health." After saying that, Xie Changyan went back to his room to rest.
Xie Mingwang was relieved to learn that his grandson had not met that woman again.
However, for several days in a row, Xie Mingwang saw Xie Changyan coming back late at night, smelling of alcohol, and his heart became filled with worry again after he was relieved.
"Tell me the truth, has something happened to the company recently?" One night, Xie Mingwang stopped Xie Changyan, who was returning in the middle of the night, and asked.
"Aren't you a director of the company? Can anything happen to the company be hidden from you?" Xie Changyan said casually.
"Does that mean my health is about to fail?" Xie Mingwang said again.
"...Have you watched too many TV series?"
"So you had a quarrel with that woman?"
Xie Changyan was stunned for a moment, his handsome face There was a trace of self-deprecation on the screen, "How can I quarrel with others?"
Thinking of the last time she sent Lin Xu back to Ji's home, half a month had passed. Except for the initial message thanking him for sending her back to Ji's home, she had not sent any more messages to herself.
I don’t know if it was because I was busy taking care of the injured Ji Tingyang, or if I simply forgot about him.
Perhaps as Ji Tingyang said, he is not important in her heart at all, so insignificant that there is no connection.
An indescribable pain surged in his heart, then surged from his chest to his throat, and finally turned into a bitter chuckle.
When Xie Mingwang heard this, he immediately understood.
There must have been some conflict with that woman.
