Zuo Yao looked at her, a complicated look flashing in his eyes.

"I know that she did something wrong in a moment of confusion and caused you a deep hurt. I really didn't know at the time, and if I knew, I wouldn't have let her do it. She's been punished now. The studio's funding is broken, and the writers are leaving. The cooperative publishing house also terminated the contract with her. She is already ruined, and she is also burdened with high liquidated damages. ”

Jiang Lai took a sip of coffee before raising his eyes to look at him: "So what? What does it have to do with me?"

Zuo Yao pursed his lips, he knew that he shouldn't say this, but Gu Qingyin's situation could only be saved by Jiang Lai.

"I hope you'll spare her and don't kill her. ”

Jiang Lai frowned slightly, his eyes were full of doubts: "Kill them all?" Lawyer Zuo's word is too heavy, and I can't afford it. What you just said is the fruit of the cause that she sowed, of course. How can I influence it?"

Li Zechen played a big role in this matter, not only in a light voice, but also in a female star named Xia Bai, who was also hidden by the company because of him. ”

Suddenly hearing Li Zechen's name, Jiang Lai was stunned.

She knew that Li Zechen had asked Liao Qi to find Chang'an in the sixteenth month, and only then did the whole thing be revealed, but she didn't know how much he had done.

His personality is like this, there are things she must know that he never shy away, and there are things he doesn't say are for her good.

She looked at the well-dressed man in a suit and leather shoes in front of her, and suddenly felt that the thoughts that were broken yesterday were really unnecessary.

"I've never heard him talk about that, and if he said I would, but I don't want to ask him about what I've heard from someone else. I just need to know that when I was about to fall into the abyss, it was he who took my hand and kept me from falling. ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Lai's heart became more and more calm, and his eyes were also very indifferent when he looked at Zuo Yao.

"You said that Gu Qingyin is very miserable now, almost driven into a desperate situation, you hope that I won't kill her, but it was she who left no stone unturned to kill me back then. Why don't you ask her why she didn't let me go?"

"I never wanted to corner, and I didn't have that much power. All the paths are chosen by the people themselves, she abandoned our friendship for ten years for a man, and did whatever it took to succeed, then it should be thought that one day she will return all the stolen and stolen things. ”

Zuo Yao exhaled heavily: "Jiang Lai, I know my request is excessive, but as her boyfriend, I can't just watch and do nothing." Even if she was scheming to be with me at the beginning, after all, I have been together for so long, and I am responsible to her. ”

Jiang Lai shook the slightly cold coffee, took a sip, frowned slightly, it is better to drink the coffee while it is hot.

Putting down the cup, Jiang Lai folded his hands on his lap: "The reason why I agreed to come today is because I want to make a complete break with the past. After all, this incident has tormented me for so long. As for what you said about letting me let her go, I'm sorry, I don't know how to let her go, because she won't let me go all along. ”

"How your feelings and responsibilities are divided, how they are entangled has nothing to do with me. But if you really love her, you won't fail to see her faults, or that you are so focused on your own world that you are only used to seeing the good that she wants you to see, but turning a blind eye to her bad. ”

Having said this, Jiang Lai felt that there was no need to stay anymore.

She stood up and looked at Zuo Yao from this angle for the first time in several years: "My words have been finished, if you really want to help her, do your best, goodbye!"

Jiang Lai turned around and was about to leave.

Behind her, Zuo Yao stood up abruptly and called for her.

Jiang Lai turned away.

"Maybe I've been ignoring her, thinking that she is still the simple and kind Gu Qingyin. It's also that I didn't take into account your feelings and say these words, sorry. ”

Jiang Lai exhaled lightly and asked him: "Do you know why I am so hard-hearted? Because of this incident, I took a year off school, and the school was rumored that I was sick, and they guessed correctly, I was sick and depressed." ”

In Zuo Yao's stunned eyes, she lifted the hair on her forehead again, revealing a very light scar: "After the plagiarism incident, many people looked at me with strange eyes, someone tripped over me, and after I fell, I left this scar."

"The wound can heal, but the scar will always be there. What she did wasn't as if she hadn't happened after she was punished. ”

"So, it was natural for her to apologize, and even if she did, I wouldn't forgive her. What I lost was not something she could compensate for with an apology. I can only promise that I won't do anything that will fall into the trap, and as for the others, there's nothing I can do. ”

After Jiang Lai finished speaking, he didn't stop any longer and walked straight out of the café.

Zuo Yao watched her back disappear at the door, and suddenly remembered the time when she was in college.

At that time, why did he choose Gu Qingyin?

Obviously, the first person I met was Jiang Lai.

But only now did he realize that he couldn't remember the reason.

And there's no need to think about it.

He is busy working his career, and Gu Qingyin just meets his requirements for his girlfriend, considerate and gentle but not clingy.

He gradually got used to this kind of life, and he was also used to ignoring Gu Qingyin.

That's how they've always gotten along.

Now, when everything was exposed, he realized that it was not that he couldn't see Gu Qingyin clearly, but that he was used to not looking at it and not thinking about it.

--

Jiang Lai came out of the café and looked up, the rare good weather, the sky was very blue, and the sun was just right.

As soon as I wanted to take a taxi back, the mobile phone in my bag rang.

Seeing the caller ID, she was slightly surprised.

It's too accurate at this time, right?

connected the phone, and there was Li Zechen's clear and deep voice: "Finished talking?"

"Hmm!"

"Then you go to the underground parking lot of the mall in front of you. ”

"Good!"

After getting in the car, Jiang Lai couldn't help but ask, "Did you come out today for something?"

"Yes!"

Jiang Lai nodded: "Oh." ”

Unexpectedly, the next second I heard him say, "Come and pick up your girlfriend and go home!"

Jiang Lai glanced at him and continued, "Oh!"

Li Zechen looked at her whole body straight, and looked nervous and laughed a little: "I scared you last night?"

As soon as he heard him mention last night, Jiang Lai instantly went on alert, glanced at the driver driving in front of him, and didn't intend to pay attention to him.

But the picture of last night involuntarily came to mind, and he didn't expect that the first voluntary confession would make him so excited that he almost lost control.

His hoarse voice seemed to still be in his ears, making it impossible to resist.

Li Zechen raised his hand and fished the person into his arms: "I'm sorry, I ...... last night"

Before he could finish speaking, he was covered in the mouth.

Looking down, the person in his arms blushed and "threatened": "Don't mention those two words again!"

Girlfriend's life, had to be from.

Li Zechen changed the topic with kindness: "After talking, did you let go of your heart?"

After asking, he didn't get an answer right away, he looked at her expression carefully, nothing unusual, but he didn't seem to be very happy.

After a while, Jiang Lai spoke: "I always thought that if the truth could be revealed one day, she would also taste the taste of being ruined and ruined. But the day did come, and she was punished, but I wasn't happy. ”

"Soft-hearted?"

Jiang Lai shook his head: "No, I am not the Holy Mother, I want to be universal and compassionate to all sentient beings." What she did, she never wanted to leave room for me, why should I repay my grievances with virtue. Besides, it is not me who is criticizing her verbally and asking for compensation for the termination of the contract, what can I do. ”

"Well," Li Zechen gently brushed her hair, "Then why aren't you happy?"

Jiang Lai sighed lightly: "Zuo Yao said that he didn't know about Gu Qingyin's matter, if it was true, then what did Gu Qingyin get by going to his side at the beginning?"

Zuo Yao said that he was responsible for Gu Qingyin, so when she went further and further apathy, where was his responsibility? Thinking about it this way, she was quite clever. ”

"Everyone has the right to choose, and when you make a choice, you have to be prepared to face the consequences. What seems sad to you, maybe she is willing to do it. ”

Jiang Lai thought about it, too. The arsenic of A, the honey of B, but they are all tastes that can only be tasted by themselves.

Li Zechen saw that her face was a little better, and asked very casually: "He didn't tell you anything else?"

Otherwise, Jiang Lai thought of the things that Zuo Yao said that Li Zechen was doing behind his back, but she said that she would trust him, and he wouldn't ask if he didn't say it.

It's a pity that her expression is too easy to guess, Li Zechen squinted: "What did he say?"

"Actually, it's nothing, it's not important!"

"Do you think I'll believe it?" he continued, after a pause, "I guess it has something to do with me, right?"

Uh, congratulations on you guessed it right!

"Tell me, what did he say?"

Jiang Lai pursed his lips and hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "He said, because you did something behind your back, Gu Qingyin would be the result today, and Xia Bai was also hidden by the company." ”

Li Zechen let out a "heh", with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "I thought he could say something, I did it." If they dare to touch you, don't think about retreating. Saying that, he looked down at Jiang Lai, "After listening, do you have anything to say, do you think that my methods are too ruthless?"

Jiang Lai blinked and shook his head: "I told him that if you tell me, I will listen, but I don't want to ask you because of someone else's words." This is the minimum level of trust. ”

Li Zechen's eyes flashed, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth became more and more obvious: "But you asked!"

Jiang Lai felt wronged: "You asked me first!"

"Then if I don't ask, you really won't come and ask me?"

"Hmm!"

Jiang Lai answered simply!

Li Zechen raised his eyebrows, and the smile in his eyes deepened: "Trust me so much?"

"Why don't you believe it? You're doing it for me, and they're going to be held accountable for what they've done wrong. Their minds are no longer on themselves at all, but on blaming others for all their faults.

"Continuing to let them stay in this circle is only to make them more unscrupulous to snatch the efforts of others to achieve themselves. So, you're not doing anything wrong. ”

Jiang Lai rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "And this feeling of having someone angry for me is quite good!"

Li Zechen finally couldn't help but bow his head and peck her on the lips: "I can make you trust you so much, it's worth it for me to do anything." ”
