Chapter Ninety-Three: Provocation
Xu Youran's expression didn't look like a joke, and she wasn't someone who didn't know the importance of this kind of thing.
Deng Zirou's intoxicated gaze flowed with incomprehension, "Envy me?"
"Compared to the average family, you don't need to be burdened with the mission of making the family prosperous, and you don't need to work hard for those who are waiting to see your family's jokes. ”
"But you don't have to work hard to have it all. ”
"Just as a business needs to be operated, this circle has always felt that my brother has no business mind, and has always believed that the Xu family will lose at the hands of our brothers and sisters, and if there was no Qin Chu in the Xu crisis last year, I am afraid that now I can only go to work. ”
Deng Zirou was thoughtful, looking at Xu Youran with a look of incomprehension, emotion, and regret.
"Why are you telling me this?"
In Deng Zirou's opinion, the purpose of Qin Chu and Xu Youran's marriage may be known to everyone, but no one knows what they think, but now Xu Youran has told herself about it, which shows that she really regards herself as a friend.
Deng Zirou's heart fluctuated.
"Because it doesn't matter to me anymore. Xu Youran smiled at Deng Zirou, "Just like you, for me, you are no longer important." ”
"You Ran?"
The car happened to drive to Deng Zirou's original residence, and Xu Youran lightly stepped on the brakes, "I used to really treat you as a friend." ”
The calm tone accentuated the terrifying atmosphere.
Deng Zirou's eyes were still sloppy because of the wine, but she seemed to be frightened by Xu Youran's words.
She was still cautious and tentative, "You Ran, am I doing something wrong?"
"No, you're doing a good job, and I'm supposed to ask you that. Xu Youran held the steering wheel and looked sideways at Deng Zirou, "What did I do wrong to offend you, so you had to join Xing Jiajia to act in such a play?"
"You actually suspect that I hurt you with her?" Deng Zirou said angrily, "Xu Youran, it turns out that I am such a person in your eyes? betraying friends, not hesitating to use his feelings to gain sympathy?"
"Isn't it?"
"Of course not......"
The word "no" only said half a syllable before being interrupted by Xu Youran, "I'll just ask you one question, Deng Zirou, are you really drunk tonight?"
Deng Zirou was asked, she didn't expect Xu Youran to ask this at all, although there were some exceptions, but she still gave a positive answer, "Are you saying that I got drunk and tricked you to come over, and then play this drama with Xing Jiajia? What am I trying to do? It will not do me any good to provoke the relationship between you and Qin Chu." ”
Deng Zirou's expression was firm, and her tone even revealed a touch of grievance and anger after being misunderstood.
Xu Youran glanced at her coldly, "Aren't all the wine on the table drunk by you." "There's a bottle of brandy in there, and if I'm not mistaken, aren't you allergic to grapes?"
Brandy......
The originally determined light began to waver.
Deng Zirou didn't notice this small detail on the table at all, she just waited for the guests at the table to leave and then took a seat, and by the way, the waiter didn't have to tidy up the countertop.
After staring at each other for a long time, Deng Zirou was finally defeated, "But even if I don't really drink so much wine, it doesn't mean that I will unite with outsiders to set you up." ”
"No brandy. ”
Deng Zirou's pupils shrank.
Although Xu Youran's face was expressionless, Deng Zirou understood that Xu Youran did not fall into the well at this time, but it was just for the sake of their past relationship.
In fact, Deng Zirou had a response to Xu Youran's last sentence, but even if she did, it would be difficult to win Xu Youran's trust again.
After all, tonight was too coincidental.
The scandal of her husband only came out a few hours ago, and a few hours later, she met a rival at the place agreed by her friends, and happened to hear the inside information about the scandal.
Very obvious provocation.
It is precisely because of this understanding that Deng Zirou finally realized that it was impossible for him and Xu Youran to become friends.
Deng Zirou got out of the car silently.
"Wait a minute. ”
Deng Zirou's tearful eyes projected an emotion called hope.
It's just that before he called out Xu Youran's name in this tone full of regret, he heard Xu Youran add, "If you still want to save a trace of face, please don't tell Zhong Yujia the reason for this matter, as for how to convince her, I think you must have more ways than me." ”
The anger that had been building up for years came up in an instant.
Deng Zirou roared angrily into the lowered car window, "Xu Youran, I hate your high-minded appearance the most, you ask yourself, do you really treat me Deng Zirou as your friend?"
"When you weren't a friend, you know better than I do that you're just looking for some psychological comfort for tonight's events. ”
Xu Youran didn't listen to Deng Zirou continue, and Deng Zirou stopped speaking.
The car drove away.
Deng Zirou looked down at her wrist, which was wearing a watch, which each of the three of them had.
The sound of the second hand "clicking" became unusually clear.
After looking at it for a long time, she raised her hand to cover the surface, and the guilt and regret flooded her heart, but it was to no avail.
Cold water poured down from the top of her head, and Deng Zirou became more and more sober.
The phone outside rang non-stop.
The person who finally ended the magic sound was Deng Zirou's sister Deng Xinyue, who just hung up the phone when she saw her sister coming out of the bathroom with a cold air.
She took the mobile phone and handed it over, but was startled by Deng Zirou's depressed appearance, "Sister, what's wrong with you?"
Deng Zirou shook her head, "I have a headache." ”
"Sister, Sister Yujia called just now, and she asked where you and Sister You Ran were. ”
Deng Zirou's body shook, and her sister quickly helped her sit on the edge of the bed.
Her appearance made Deng Xinyue worried, but obviously her sister was not persuaded now, and was about to withdraw, but she listened to the humanity on the bed, "Xinyue, is Sister Yujia good to you?"
"Okay, You Ran is also very good, when you were hospitalized, they took care of you, did you forget? During that time, Sister You Ran was kind and very busy, but I still went to the hospital to see you when I was free, sister, I don't know whether to say some things or not, I always feel that you don't seem to like Sister You Ran very much." ”
Deng Zirou was a little surprised that her psychology was seen through by her sister, and she realized that her dislike for Xu Youran was so obvious that others could see it.
But at this juncture, it doesn't matter if you understand it.
Deng Xinyue spoke, "Actually, Sister You Ran is a knife-mouthed tofu heart, don't look at her not good at communicating with people, but in fact, she has done more than anyone else, and she actually asked someone to help me when I was admitted to high school two years ago." ”
"What did you say?" Deng Zirou said in surprise, "She helped?"
"It's not rain...... Jiame. ”
"They all helped, but the person who helped from beginning to end was Sister Youran. And a few years ago, there was something wrong with Dad's business, and it was also ......."
Deng Xinyue hadn't noticed her sister's trance yet, and began to count how much Xu Youran had done for their family silently over the years.
However, these things, because of Deng Zirou's self-esteem, Xu Youran never let her know.
Tears filled her eyes, and when Deng Xinyue found out again, she only saw her sister Deng Zirou crying silently with tears streaming down her face.
She opened her mouth in surprise and called out to her sister silently.
The phone rings again.
Deng Zirou's body shook suddenly, and she hurriedly picked up her mobile phone, but her eyes were full of anger when she saw the notes on the screen.
Loud music and human voices came from the earpiece.
Xing Jiajia raised her voice, her voice was full of happiness, "How is it, how much did she believe my words?
Deng Zirou paused, and her tone returned to normal, "It should be Quanxin, she has been low and silent, she has always loved face the most, and it used to be nothing more than the jokes of people in the wealthy circle of City A who watched her and her husband, but now the two of them are very hot in the cp, and the people of the whole country know about it, not to mention that she can't get over her face, even the face of the Xu family is also unbearable." ”
Hearing this, Xing Jiajia was in a happier mood, "You did a good job, I owe you a favor this time." ”
"It's fine. Deng Zirou smiled, "If you can make Jiajia owe me a favor, this time it will be worth it." ”
Xing Jiajia on the other end smiled like a flower.
But if she saw Deng Zirou's tearful face smiling again at this moment, maybe she wouldn't be so proud that she got carried away.
The phone hung up, Xing Jiajia was even more energetic, raising her wine glass, "Drink, I'm in for a treat today." ”
When Li Yaorong heard this, he laughed, "I said that I would have a treat today, why are you a treat again?" It seems that this wave of Mrs. Qin is too stable?"
Xing Jiajia's face was full of red light and shame, "What are you talking about? ”
"Just now, people called you second aunt, and they said that there was no one in the eight characters? I think this one has been done, and it's almost over, okay, today you can please please, save me some money for the master. ”
The meeting did not end until the second half of the night.
Xing Jiajia was held by the stars and said goodbye to a group of wine and meat friends one after another, and then got into the special car arranged for her by Qin Lie.
The driver drove her back to the villa as usual.
The villa is very large, twice as big as all the mansions Xing Jiajia has ever seen, but when the excitement is gone, the time left for her has become extremely lonely, and she seems to be missing a piece in her heart.
Xing Jiajia was so tired that she lay down on the bed without even taking a shower.
Although she knew that Qin Lie had a serious cleanliness habit, he didn't necessarily come back once a month, so she did the same.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, she heard the door open.
She jumped up, and Qin Lie had already walked behind her.
Xing Jiajia turned around happily, and saw Qin Lie's brows furrowed, and there was disgust between his eyebrows, "Have you drunk?"
Xing Jiajia was like a child who had done something wrong, consciously took a step back, and then walked to the bathroom.
"Jiajia, I think our relationship is ......"
His voice was a little soft, Xing Jiajia was a little excited when she thought of tonight's events, and hurriedly turned around, "I forgot to tell you something, I'm ...... tonight So their relationship will be stiff recently. ”
