Chapter 718: Empty
Hearing Lu Youyou's explanation, the housekeeper smiled and said: "The old man will wait for two days to come back, the old man and his wife have gone to the company, and the young master also went in the morning, and when he left, he told us not to wake you up and let you sleep a little longer."
Lu Youyou nodded stunnedly: "Oh, it's okay, you go get busy first." She smiled awkwardly.
The butler nodded, not suspicious of anything.
And Lu Youyou felt a lot more relaxed after hearing that Shi Xianyun was not at home.
She walked to the living room and sat down on the couch, but she felt sarcastic in her heart.
The reason for cooperating with Shi Xianyun now is to complete her original goal faster, but now, she is escaping reality.
Taking a deep breath, Lu Youyou tried her best to calm her mood.
After a while, the butler came out and called him to dinner. After eating, she also specially called to ask Ling Zhaoting if he would come back, and after learning that he was not coming back, Lu Youyou came to the small garden bored again.
She sat down in the recliner and calmed down a little.
In fact, there is nothing to escape from the things he is about to face now, these things are things that she will have to face sooner or later! The second uncle's approach is right, Shi Xianyun is not wrong, and it is she who is wrong.
What is wrong is that she fell in love with Ling Zhaoting! She shouldn't fall in love with Ling Zhaoting, because if she didn't fall in love with Ling Zhaoting, she could have been ruthless and cooperate with Shi Xianyun.
So, now almost all her pain is on her own.
And Lu Youyou, who was sitting on the recliner, didn't know that there was a person standing behind her.
Shi Xianyun stood at the door and quietly looked at Lu Youyou who was sitting there, the curvature of the corners of her mouth gave people a feeling of imperativeness.
She snorted coldly and walked straight over.
"I didn't know that there was someone who could disguise himself better than me. She said sarcastically.
Lu Youyou was shocked, she sat up and looked at Shi Xianyun who suddenly appeared in horror. But in just a moment, the fear in her eyes vanished.
She looked at Shi Xianyun coldly, didn't speak, and directly lay back on the recliner and said lightly: "If you have anything to say, just say it." Lu Youyou tried to calm herself down.
Shi Xianyun sneered: "When I first heard the news, I was a little surprised, after all, if it weren't for knowing this, I would have thought that Zhao Ting really took a lover who fell in love!"
Lu Youyou's heart hurt fiercely, why didn't she understand what Shi Xianyun meant? Wasn't he just mocking her because Ling Zhaoting had done all kinds of things against them before? But so what? She was sure that she wouldn't go to Ling Zhaoting!
"If there's nothing to do, please get out of here. She said coldly, with all the previous anxieties on her face.
Shi Xianyun sneered: "Let me go?" aren't you afraid that I will tell Ling Zhaoting?" She looked at Lu Youyou coldly, unwilling to let go of the slightest expression on his face.
"Why should I be afraid?" Lu Youyou sneered.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll demolish you?" Shi Xianyun continued to threaten.
Lu Youyou's smile deepened, she looked at Shi Xianyun like she was looking at a clown and said, "Tell him, what's the benefit to you?"
Shi Xianyun gritted her teeth, of course she wouldn't tell Ling Zhaoting, she was still counting on getting in touch with the Lu family through the woman in front of her!
"Yes, you are worthy of being a member of the Lu family, I dare to send you to Ling Zhaoting's side, it seems that you have some real skills. She said in a weird way.
Lu Youyou didn't speak, and gently picked up the tea on the small coffee table and took a sip.
Shi Xianyun saw that she was always in a passive position, and she was a little unwilling. She thought that now that she had taken the handle of this woman, this woman should be obedient, but she underestimated this woman after all.
After all, how could a woman who could be sent to Ling Zhaoting's side be a simple woman?
She sneered, sat directly on the chair next to Lu Youyou, and said in an unkind tone: "Don't say much, since it's all spread out, you should also know what I want." ”
Lu Youyou didn't speak, and listened quietly.
"The Lu family asked me to contact you for everything, in order to express my sincerity, I have already given you some of the project information within the Ling family, you have to give me some sincerity, let me feel that you are sincere to help me, right?" Shi Xianyun said tentatively.
Lu Youyou sneered: "There is nothing insincere, everyone is a businessman, and interests are the most important thing." ”
The gate of the Ling family
As soon as Ling Zhaoting got out of the car, the housekeeper ran out to meet him and hurriedly asked, "Didn't the young master say that he wouldn't come back at noon?"
"Hmm," Ling Zhaoting nodded.
The housekeeper wanted to say what you wanted, and he would send it to the company with a phone call, but when he thought of the recent extraordinary times, many materials could not be faked to others, and the information that Ling Zhaoting put at home should also be very important.
So he didn't follow after taking the coat handed over by Ling Zhaoting.
Just as he turned around and was about to take care of other things, Ling Zhaoting stopped him.
"What about the young lady?" he asked.
The butler pointed in the direction of the garden and said, "After the young lady had lunch, she went to the small garden. ”
Ling Zhaoting nodded, turned around and walked towards the small garden. Although he has something to take to the company, he won't let him come back to get it himself, he just wants to take the opportunity to see Lu Youyou.
It's just that he recently discovered that Lu Youyou seems to like to stay in a small garden like his grandfather more and more. He shook his head helplessly and continued walking.
It's just that when he was about to walk to the door, he suddenly heard Shi Xianyun's voice.
Ling Zhaoting's footsteps stopped suddenly, and he stood in place and looked up at the door leading to the small garden, and his heart was full of doubts.
Didn't the housekeeper just say that Lu Youyou was the only one in the small garden, and why did Shi Xianyun's voice come from inside?
Don't......
Clenched his fists, his face that was originally full of anticipation froze instantly, and all that was left was cold.
"You're right, there is only a relationship of interest between us, and I like people like you, so as not to be entangled in the future. Shi Xianyun said coldly and arrogantly.
Lu Youyou sneered: "It's just for the sake of profit, don't worry, I will fully cooperate with you." ”
With a 'boom', Ling Zhaoting only felt a mess in his head.
"Good. Shi Xianyun agreed, then stood up and lowered her eyes to look at Lu Youyou, who was still sitting, and said with admiration: "I really underestimated you." Then he turned and left.
Lu Youyou sat in place for a long time before she came back to her senses and exhaled deeply, at that moment, where was the cold arrogance on her face when she faced Shi Xianyun just now.
She stood up, but found that her legs were trembling uncontrollably.
Lu Youyou, are you afraid? But isn't that what you're here for? Now it's just one more partner. What's there to be afraid of?
However, despite her desperate attempts to tell herself this, there was still a voice in her heart that was telling something.
She shook her head vigorously, trying to shake the voice out of her head.
She gasped and hurried out of the small garden. She needed to be alone now.
However, as soon as she walked out of the small garden and returned to the house, she saw Ling Zhaoting standing at the top of the stairs with a document in his hand.
She froze in place for a moment, forgetting her reaction for a moment, and her little face turned pale in an instant.
Just when she was shocked and couldn't react, Ling Zhaoting walked up to him like a nobody: "The company needs some information, I'll come back to get it." ”
Lu Youyou came back to her senses and nodded stunned: "Oh, oh." Then there was silence between the two again.
Ling Zhaoting felt a pain in his heart, he reached out and slowly lifted Lu Youyou's chin, looking at her face seriously.
This face, this person, has been thinking about it day and night for so long, but what is it in exchange? Why did she do that? Has she forgotten the pain Shi Xianyun gave?
It's just that despite thinking so in his heart, Ling Zhaoting's face still didn't show any expression, and the corners of his mouth even hooked up a faint arc and said: "There is something in the company at night, don't come back, take care of yourself." ”
Lu Youyou nodded stunned, not knowing what to say for a while.
It wasn't until she saw that Ling Zhaoting was about to walk out of the door that she reacted and hurriedly chased after her and asked, "You drink a little less, I'll wait for you to come back." ”
Ling Zhaoting's body stiffened, turned around and nodded with a smile. Then he turned around and walked to the car, opened the door, sat in, and then started the car and walked away.
Lu Youyou looked at this scene, and always felt empty in her heart, as if something was being peeled off.
She clenched her fists hard, reaching out and hammering her chest. But no matter how hard he tried to alleviate the discomfort of writing, the feeling seemed to linger in her heart.
In the evening, until Shi Xianyun and Ling Fan came back, Lu Youyou did not wait for Ling Zhaoting's figure. She frowned slightly, watching Shi Xianyun deliberately wander in front of her, she had no choice but to go upstairs.
But she waited upstairs for a long time, but still didn't hear the sound of Ling Zhaoting's car coming back.
Lu Youyou sat on the bed, there was not a trace of light in the room, except for the street lights that came in through the window from time to time, and the surroundings were almost dark.
She slowly stood up and walked out onto the balcony.
That day, he stood here and said that their daughter was the happiest little princess in the world. It seems that Ling Zhaoting pinned all his good hopes for the future on this unborn child.
She knows Ling Zhaoting, the reason why he wants to give his daughter the best may be partly out of his love for his children, but more importantly, he should not want his children to experience some inhuman things like he did when he was a child, right?
However, all these beautiful expectations seem to have been destroyed by her own hands.
