, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the shallow marriage! The smile in her eyes swayed slightly.
Retracted his gaze, stared at the plan on the paper, and pursed his lips slightly.
Everybody says that a woman is weak and a mother is strong, but she doesn't think so, is the person who says this a man? If so, then he certainly doesn't know enough about women, and if not, then she underestimates women.
Women are inherently strong, but motherhood will be stronger.
The night was already deep, Yan Yu turned off the lamp, walked to the little star's bed in the dark, lay down to sleep, she kissed the little star on the cheek, the emptiness in her heart seemed to be filled, no longer so empty.
*
In a bar in the East Side District.
The lights are bright, the light is ambiguous, the music is **, and the dance floor in the center is full of hot and restless men and women, they are close to their bodies, fit each other, and the contradictions are always the best.
In the booth next to the dance floor, there were several crooked men, lazy, with their long legs rammed loosely, playing with dice carelessly.
Lu Yan leaned on the innermost, his facial features were deep, his dark eyes were painted, he was wearing a black handmade suit, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, he shook it gently, and did not drink it.
The light struck his leg so hard that his face was hidden in the darkness.
The light was dazzling, making it impossible to see his expression for a while.
But it exudes an air of indifference that no one can approach.
He slowly stared at the swaying red wine in his glass, not knowing what he was thinking, then rubbed his brow and drank it down.
Ji Muyang was sitting next to Lu Yan, he was playing a game with his head down, controlling the characters on the screen, and after a while, the reminder that the phone was out of battery suddenly jumped out, and there was a scream in the game, and Ji Muyang cursed: "Lost again!"
His teammates also scolded him for cheating, Ji Muyang scolded a few words, closed the game, and stopped playing.
He leaned over to get the whiskey on the table, drank it in one gulp, looked at Lu Yan sideways, and his eyes deepened: "What's the matter? Ah Yan, aren't you going to be a good father lately? Why did you come out to play with me again?"
Lu Yan pursed his lips and did not speak.
Ji Muyang: "Quarreled with Yanyu?"
Lu Yan's eyes were indifferent, the corners of his lips were slightly tense, and his Adam's apple rolled up and down, but he still didn't say anything.
Ji Muyang's voice was lazy: "No wonder you are like a lonely person again, is it because of the girl you took away from the box last time, Lin Yin?"
Rrinkles appeared between Lu Yan's eyebrows.
Ji Muyang: "Ah Yan, I've seen you and her on the news, if I were a speaker, I would have been angry a long time ago, that girl looks quite similar to Xu Yingxia." β
He was careless, with a bit of the ease of a gentleman: "However, she and Xu Yingxia are not the same person after all, Ah Yan, you have to tell the difference." β
This time, Lu Yan's dark eyes stared at Ji Muyang, the emotion in his dark eyes was unknown, he straightened up slightly, and a slight light shone on his face, half bright and half off.
His thin lips moved: "Ah Yang, why do you seem to care about words?"
Ji Muyang pursed his lips, heard the words, and raised his eyebrows, but he didn't look at Lu Yan, the contours of his side face were distinct, and his peach blossom eyes smiled: "I care about her, I don't care about you, Ah Yan, shouldn't you even eat my vinegar?"
Ji Muyang said, turning his head slowly, the light fell on his eyes, like the sunshine in the deep sea, and his emotions were indescribable: "You like words?"
This is not the first time Ji Muyang has asked.
It's not the first time that Lu Yan hasn't answered directly, his bony fingers put down the wine glass, then loosened the cufflinks, rolled up his sleeves elegantly, and asked casually: "What are you doing so much about this?"
The corners of Ji Muyang's lips curled: "It's not that I'm worried about Xia Xia, after all, you and Xia Xia have been good for so many years, and we don't know the reason for Xia Xia's sudden departure, and we don't know where Xia Xia is staying, and we don't know if Xia Xia is doing well." He raised his eyelids, and the light in his dark eyes was so sharp that it was a little difficult to look at directly, "Ah Yan, if Xia Xia comes back, what are you and Yan Yu going to do?"
The expression on Lu Yan's face was not shocked, but his heart set off waves, the wind rose, the whirlpool turned, and he didn't know who the hustle and bustle was going to swallow.
He didn't speak.
Ji Muyang's voice was full of smiles: "I think you will still choose Xia Xia, after all, Xia Xia grew up with you, you experienced kidnapping together, and it was Xia Xia who saved you, you can't let her down." As for metaphors, this woman is a liar. He sneered, "Didn't she deceive Xia Xia from the beginning and marry you, step by step, but quite scheming and interesting." β
Ji Muyang's words were a little ugly.
Lu Yan hooked the corners of his lips, narrowed his eyes, and smiled lowly: "It has nothing to do with her." β
This "she" doesn't know if she's talking about words or Xu Yingxia.
Next, the two began to drink, Lu Yan drank less, Ji Muyang drank more, and at the end of the drink, his eyes were a little red, and the broken diamonds on his ears were a little shiny, and the corners of his lips were hooked obliquely.
He hooked Lu Yan's neck and didn't speak.
Lu Yan's voice was indifferent: "Sit up straight." β
Ji Muyang lowered his eyelashes, making it impossible to see his emotions clearly, he seemed to be laughing: "Ah Yan, are you happy?" I have been bored lately, you look at these women, they come and go, they are all the same faces, there is nothing new, they are greedy for nothing more than my money, if I don't have this money......"
Before he finished speaking, Lu Yan lifted his lips: "If you don't have money, you won't have any attraction, and they will definitely leave you." β
Ji Muyang smiled and smashed Lu Yan's shoulder with a fist: "Damn, you are too ruthless, isn't my face attractive?"
Ji Muyang was still talking about something, but Lu Yan didn't listen to it much.
He drank a little bit of wine, obviously not drunk, but his mind was full of words, he didn't know how the quarrel started that day, but no matter what, he could also see that Yan Yu's resistance to Xia Xia.
He pinched his eyebrows, and a hint of impatience flashed between his eyebrows.
Suddenly, he felt a kind of boredom, tired of his current life.
Whether it's the words that become emotional, or Xia Xia's inexplicable absence, his life has been stirred up into a puddle of sewage.
At about 12 o'clock in the evening, Lu Yan and Ji Muyang walked to the door of the bar, Lu Yan lightly inserted his pockets, but Ji Muyang was a little drunk.
At the door, Lu Yan saw the usual figure again.
Lin Yin was wearing a white sundress, stepping on flat shoes, revealing her slender collarbone, raising her eyebrows, and looking at Lu Yan quietly.
When Lu Yan looked over violently, he still had the illusion of being Xia Xia for a moment, thinking that it was Xia Xia.
But after he saw it clearly, there was no trace of warmth in his eyes.
He slowly withdrew his gaze.
Ji Muyang also saw Lin Yin, he hooked his lips and smiled, the light in his eyes and the studs on his ears shone together: "Yo, come to Ayan again?" He didn't know if it was intentional or unintentional, and said slowly, "It's really similar to Xia Xia, Xia Xia before, that's it, every time you go out to drink with us, Xia Xia will rush over desperately." β
He lowered his voice and was a little contemptuous: "Ah Yan, I am also a man, and the occasional stand-in is still good." His dark eyes glanced Lin Yin up and down, and there was no temperature in his eyes.
Ji Muyang's voice fell, and there was a bit of dead silence in the night.
Lu Yan narrowed his narrow eyes, expressionless, and looked straight at Ji Muyang, the temperature under his eyes dissipated little by little, the corners of his lips pursed into a straight line, a little cloudy, he seemed to understand something, straightened up, and the fingertips hanging on his side were a little white.
"Ah Yang, you found Lin Yin?"
Ji Muyang's tone was understated, and he admitted it at once: "Yes, I found that she is very similar to Xia Xia, isn't there a saying that after she leaves, the people I have loved are like her?......"
Before he finished speaking, Lu Yan walked directly away with his long legs.
The back is indifferent.
He didn't even look at Ji Muyang and Lin Yin.
His gloomy and mocking voice came from the cold wind: "Ah Yang, if you interfere in my emotional affairs again in the future, don't blame me for ignoring my friendship for many years." β
Ji Muyang, who was behind him, also spoke, and his words were blown away in the wind: "Ah Yan, don't you think you are very bad now? You can't let go of Xia Xia, but you also want to take advantage of the words, you are dragging two women." β
This time, Lu Yan paused.
He didn't turn around, the lines of his back straightened, and he suddenly sneered, "Are you really worried about Xia Xia?"
Ji Muyang's fists hanging by his side clenched.
The joints are slightly white.
A sudden feeling of nausea welled up in his abdomen, and he stumbled to the side of the trash can, holding on to the trunk of the tree, and vomited.
And over there, Lu Yan was followed by Lin Yin, and Lin Yin looked at Lu Yan carefully behind him.
Broad-shouldered and long-legged, wearing a straight and slim suit, even taller, the streetlights are dim, and his long shadow is dragging on the ground.
Lin Yin's heart was beating fast.
She didn't know why, she deliberately stepped on Lu Yan's shadow, and an indescribable joy arose in her heart.
She kept telling herself that she had done nothing wrong, happiness needed to be fought for by herself, Lu Yan's wife had tried her best to marry him, and she didn't need to marry into the Lu family, she just wanted to be with him.
Lin Yin's heart pounded fast.
I didn't notice for a moment that the man in front of her stopped, her forehead hit Lu Yan's back, hard, full of hormones, and two blush floated on her cheeks.
She bit her lower lip, raised her eyes, met Lu Yan's eyes, saw her own microcosm in his dark and lightless eyes, her heart beat faster and faster, she hoped that there was only her in his eyes from now on.
I don't know what gave her strength.
Lin Yin became bolder, suddenly took a step forward and held Lu Yan's hand.
Her voice was very soft: "Mr. Lu, I know that you can't forget your first love in your heart, and I also know that I look a lot like your first love, I know that you are in a bad mood these days, let me accompany you, okay?" She put her posture very low, "You can treat me as your first love, I don't mind." β
Lu Yan's eyes were fierce, his lips were very straight, and he didn't know what emotions flashed in his eyebrows.
His eyes sparkled over Lin Yin's facial features.
Finally, it fell on her eyes, and she laughed silently, with a faint smile: "You are still young, don't always think about going the wrong way, go back." β
Lin Yin was not reconciled at all, her pupils widened slightly: "This is not a crooked path, Mr. Lu." Her voice was still soft, "Your wife can do this, why can't I? Don't you like my face?"
"I don't like it. β
Lu Yan's voice was cold, "You have simply tarnished this face, and besides, my wife is not something you can evaluate at will, Miss Lin, you are already an adult, you must know that the trouble comes from the mouth, and you should know that adults are responsible for every decision they make." β
His tone was calm, but the words he uttered were extremely vicious.
Lin Yin's face turned pale, like white tissue paper.
*
Lu Yan didn't receive a phone call for a few days, at the beginning, he would look at his phone from time to time, with inexplicable irritability, and in the next few days, he simply forced himself to stop looking at his phone, but everyone in the secretary's room knew that Mr. Lu's face was so bad that it looked like the company was about to go bankrupt.
And in the past few days, Yan Yu's state is not very good, not because of herself, but because Zhou Yun always calls her from time to time, and the relationship between the two of them seems to be as bad as never being harmonious.
Zhou Yun was very dissatisfied with her, and her tone was slightly sarcastic: "Yanyu, why didn't you tell me about what Ah Yan did outside recently? You have to let me know from the news, do you know how embarrassed I am?"
Yan Yu was running to the court to hand over the materials for filing the infringement case at that time, and he was very busy, but he still had to find time to deal with Zhou Yun: "Mom, what's the matter with Ah Yan?"
"Don't call me Mom, you're not worthy of it. β
Yan Yu's face was a little pale.
Zhou Yun continued: "You still study law, doesn't it be said in the circle that women who study law are the best at handling their husbands? β
I don't understand why women are always extra harsh on women, and what they say is always extremely ugly.
She asked tentatively, "Mom, are you in a bad mood?"
Zhou Yun became angry all of a sudden: "Where am I in a bad mood? I just want you to know, take care of Ah Yan, don't let him be on the news again, and those women outside, quickly solve it, get something similar to Xia Xia, and get in the way of my eyes, and later, you will call Ah Yan and ask him to go home." β
She scolded comfortably, and hung up the phone, but Yu's chest seemed to be pressed by a big stone, and it was dull for a while.
Zhou Yun's way of educating children is really a failure.
If she felt that Lu Yan had done something wrong, she should take the initiative to tell Lu Yan, instead of scolding her daughter-in-law and forcing her daughter-in-law to educate Lu Yan.
Zhou Yun probably didn't think that her words were the biggest victim of Lu Yan's flowers.
After Yan Yu went to the court to file the case, he breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the case filing court, and when he arrived at the court hall, he didn't know what had happened, and the crowd suddenly screamed and panicked.
Yan Yu was slightly stunned, and a person screamed and rushed in the direction of Yan Yu, he was holding a knife in his hand, and the sunlight shone on his knife, refracting a dazzling light.
The man's eyes were full of red bloodshots, and he roared fiercely: "I fought with you, I fought, you people who can't die well." β
It is said that the heart is about to be unbearable, and the pupils are constricted.
Suddenly, someone knocked the words away, his long legs tensed, and he kicked hard, hooked his hand, and kicked the man's knife away.
He swept his leg sideways, struck the man the knee, and subdued him and trampled him on the sole of his foot.
There was a sigh of relief in the crowd, followed by cheers.
The words were still undecided, she had just been pushed by someone, she did not stand firmly, her high heels slipped on the smooth marble floor, she twisted her feet, bit her lower lip, and sat limply on the ground.
A bailiff hurriedly came and said embarrassedly to the man who had subdued the gangster, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Lawyer Qin, are you okay?" β
It turned out that he was a lawyer.
Words struggled to get back on their feet.
Qin Rang glanced at Yan Yu, the light in his eyes was even colder than the autumn rain, he retracted his gaze, wrinkled his brows, and looked not very good-tempered: "The security of the court needs to be strengthened, and the parties can pass the security check with knives?"
His tone was sarcastic.
The bailiff was too embarrassed to say anything, so he could only escort the client who was broken down and clamoring to kill the judge and lawyer who had been unjust.
Yan Yu's foot was twisted, there was a pain in her ankle, her skin was fair, and her ankle was already bruised and swollen, which was a little shocking to see.
Lowering her head, she suddenly saw a pair of shiny leather shoes stepping in front of her, and the man's voice was very faint: "Can you go? Are you a lawyer?"
Without waiting for words to answer, he sneered: "If so, I advise you not to be." First, you were unlucky, you were stabbed by him with a knife when it was clear that the man's case had nothing to do with you; second, you were too slow to react, standing there, you were not the target, who was the target; third, your physical sensitivity was poor, I pushed you away, and I didn't even stand firm. If you go to court, these three points are your fatal wounds. β
"Can I go now?"
Yan Yu was stunned for a moment, and she pursed her lips: "Yes." β
Qin Rang really didn't care about words, he tensed his jaw line, turned around and left, and didn't even have the idea of looking at Yan Yu's injured ankle.
Yan Yu spit out the sullen breath in her chest, but she was not angry, she was not an uninteresting person, she knew that if it wasn't for this lawyer Qin who saved her, she might have to lie in the hospital now.
Yan Yu felt that she was really unlucky this day.
Of course, people are unlucky, they have to stuff their teeth when they drink cold water, and they have to walk out of the courthouse, and this year's autumn rain is coming.
When she came back to her senses, the cold raindrops kept falling on her face, burrowing into her collar, with the chill of autumn and winter.
Yan Yu could only stand lame in front of the courthouse, waiting for the rain to stop.
She was wearing shorts, and her two white legs were exposed, a little shivering, the temperature was cold, and goosebumps were spreading.
The pain in her ankle made a cold sweat break out on her forehead.
Her lips were also a little pale, and she didn't know who to call after thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't keep bothering the north and south, and finally gave up.
But after a while, the phone suddenly vibrated and a call came in.
It's Lu Yan.
Yan Yu's fingers paused slightly, a little trembling, she pursed her lips, swallowed in her throat, lowered her eyelashes, as if she had done a battle between heaven and man, in the end, she still didn't pick it up, put away the phone, and let the phone vibrate.
She sat down on the steps and looked at the curtain of rain that enveloped the world in front of her, trapping her in this place, and the chill hit her, and she touched her cold legs.
She didn't want to pay attention to Lu Yan now.
I don't know how long the phone vibrated or when it stopped, but the moment Yan Yu knew that the phone stopped vibrating, she felt a little empty in her heart.
Rainy days tend to breed dark emotions, and now, Yan Yu feels like she is shrouded in negative emotions.
She seemed to care more and more about Lu Yan, and she became more and more unsatisfied.
It's scary.
She lowered her eyes, but fortunately, it was still early, not to the point of being out of control.
The pain in her ankle became more and more intense, as if it had penetrated into the bone marrow, and she raised her eyes, only to see a black umbrella.
Under the umbrella, a man dressed in black held an umbrella and slowly approached her in the rain.
The man, with deep facial features, cold eyes, tensed his lips, habitually twisted his brows, and his eyes were extraordinarily dark.
The chill was even more permeable than the current temperature.
Lu Yan asked, "Yanyu, why don't you answer the phone?"
His voice seemed to be covered with wind and snow, staring at sub-zero temperatures, there was no light in his eyes, and his thin lips moved: "A lot of age, Mrs. Lu still has to play the missing game like a child competing for favor?" he said sarcastically, "Don't make trouble." β
With carelessness, he just regarded the coldness of the past few days as a trick played by women.
Yan Yu felt a chill.
Only then did Lu Yan realize that Yan Yu's foot was injured, and the crease between his eyebrows was deeper: "You twisted your foot?"
He handed the umbrella in his hand to Yan Yu, let Yan Yu take it, without saying a word, he hugged Yan Yu horizontally, Yan Yu could only hook him tightly, and the umbrella in his hand was a little difficult to cover the rain for the two of them.
She stared at Lu Yan's side face for a while, her eyelashes trembled, and she looked away.
Lu Yan galloped all the way to the hospital, but on rainy days, it was easy to have accidents, and the road was blocked, Lu Yan lowered the window slightly, and heard the car owners next to him complaining.
"What's the matter, it's been blocked for so long? It's raining, who wants to stay on the road longer?"
"It's because it's raining, so there was an accident, and it seems that there was a car accident in front, which is quite serious. β
"That's unlucky. β
"Yes, I heard that he is still a rich man, I don't know if the surname Lu or the surname is Xulai, and I didn't understand. β
The words in the back seat were also heard, her heart shrank, and her eyebrows beat heavily, the rich man surnamed Lu ...... She clenched her fists tightly.
Lu Yan tightened the corners of his lips, and without thinking about it, he turned on the radio and tuned to the city channel.
ββNews from this station: Xu Zhigang, chairman of Dongjun Company, unfortunately suffered a car accident due to a slippery road in the North Third Ring Road......
Lu Yan didn't finish listening to the rest of the words, he quickly unbuckled his seat belt, his face was ugly, he opened the car door, and didn't even say a word to Yan Yu, as if he forgot that Yan Yu was still in the back seat of the car.
In a blink of an eye, his tall figure fell in the autumn rain and strode towards the place where Xu Zhigang had an accident.
Yan Yu felt more and more pain in his ankle, like burning.
Xu Zhigang is Xu Yingxia's father.
It would have been Lu Yan's father-in-law.
She laughed silently, so, Lu Yan cares about her father-in-law so much, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it, right?
