1. Mysterious strangers
One evening in late summer and early autumn, the sky was heavy and dark clouds were rolling.
A dazzling red light suddenly crossed the sky, as if the black silk curtain had suddenly cracked.
Then there was a crisp boom, and the rain fell "boom".
Shen Tou, as usual, went home from work.
As soon as I walked out of the company's door, the rain came in hand.
She hurriedly took out the umbrella from her bag, and was about to open it, but something floated above her head, and an umbrella was firmly propped up above her.
Her hand holding the umbrella stopped, and her eyes glanced at the man holding the umbrella in confusion.
It was a middle-aged man with a slight haircut, wearing a decent black suit, with a gentle smile on his face, and asked politely and politely, "Are you Miss Shen Toushen?" ”
For those who don't know what to do, Shen Tou is full of vigilance.
"Yes, you are?" She went through all the people she knew in her head, but she didn't know this man.
The man smiled and pointed to a private car parked not far away and said, "Our boss wants to see you, can you please come with me." ”
It was a black Bentley Mulsanne with film on the windows, and she couldn't see inside.
"Your boss? Who? Shen Tou's vigilance was high.
Even if the man in front of him doesn't look like a bad person, how can a bad person in the world write the word "bad person" on his forehead?
Seeing that Shen Tou hesitated, the man's tone became more and more sincere, "Miss Shen will know when she goes, our boss just wants to talk to you, and he has no malicious intent." ”
It's some kind of headhunting company, but she's not so sought-after, right?
But who wanted to see her?
At this time, although it was raining heavily, there were many idlers on the road, and it was not enough to rob or kidnap or something.
Shen Tou refreshed himself and followed the middle-aged man towards the car.
The middle-aged man opened the car door, and she felt a chill hit her.
On such a day, the people in the car actually turned on the air conditioning.
She stood outside, looking into the back seat of the car.
There's a lot of recoil space, with a man sitting on the right side.
The man was dressed in a smoky gray suit with a black and blue checkered tie.
His legs were folded, and a paper clip was placed on it, and he looked focused, and his hand with a pen roamed quickly on the paper.
Outside, the rain was loud, and someone was standing beside him, but he didn't notice it.
"Miss Shen, let's go in, it's raining too much." The middle-aged man said.
Shen Tou glanced at the middle-aged man, and then at the car when she was like air, a cold man, she bit and sat down.
Then, the middle-aged man closed the car door in satisfaction.
The sound of the rain was shut out of the car door, and the whole world seemed to be quiet.
Shen Tou didn't speak, the man didn't speak, and the air in the car was so cold that it seemed to be chirping.
After about a minute, the man finally stopped writing and clipped the text shut with a "whoosh".
That action was done in one go.
But in Shen Tou's opinion, for some reason, this action was a little complaining.
"You are Shen Tou?" The man finally looked at her, but his eyes were cold, his eyebrows were frosty, his tone was quite disdainful, and he looked at her with disdain.
Shen Tou's first feeling was that she hated this man a lot, why did he look like he was full of superiority, you disdain, I disdain it even more.
"I am. Who are you? Her tone was also unkind, you know, but you invited me here?
But instead of answering her question, the man asked another question.
"Your boyfriend's name is Ding Wenhao?"
Shen Tou stared at him, his eyes sharp, as if he wanted to see him through.
"That's right. Who are you? She asked.
The expression on the man's face softened, "I am Lin Liyu's brother, my name is Lin Lixiao." ”
Shen Tou blinked, and his mind flickered for a quarter of an hour, "Who is Lin Liyu?" ”
"Huh." Lin Lixiao chuckled, "Sun Tzu's Art of War, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is the only way to survive a hundred battles." You don't even know who your opponent is, so you're destined to be the one to lose. ”
The more Shen Tou listened, the more incomprehensible he felt. What did she lose, how could she not know?
"Lin Lixiao, what do you want to say?"
Lin Lixiao said lightly: "You should break up with Ding Wenhao." ”
Shen was furious, "My business with my boyfriend is your." ”
Lin Lixiao frowned, and his voice was low, "I really can't control your affairs, but this involves my sister, so I naturally can't stand by and watch." ”
Shen Tou smiled and sneered: "What does this have to do with your sister?" ”
Both of them fell silent suddenly.
The rain was still heavy outside, and the big drops of rain were knocking on the window panes, and if you listened intently, you could hear the crisp sound of "crackling horns".
Shen Tou's sudden explosion of anger was gone, and when she calmed down, she brushed up the clues that Lin Lixiao gave just now, and she seemed to have come to some bad conclusions.
Is he saying that Ding Wenhao has split his legs?
Her boyfriend Ding Wenhao split his legs, is that so?
She was suddenly a little confused, this thing was too unexpected, should she believe it?
"Do you want to hear the truth, Shen Tou?" Lin Lixiao's cold voice sounded in the car.
"What?" She asked stupidly.
Lin Lixiao stared at her eyes, and that look was a little ruthless.
He said: "Because Ding Wenhao is about to get married, and the object of his marriage is my sister Lin Liyu, do you understand the purpose of my coming to you today?" ”
Shen Tou only felt that his brain was "buzzing", and then it was blank.
She struggled to hold back the discomfort that welled up in her heart.
Ding Wenhao is getting married, but the bride is not her, but another woman.
The woman's brother approached her and said to her, hey, don't hit my prospective brother-in-law in the future, this man has been sold, if you want to fall in love and get married, please find someone else.
She walked well, why was she slapped by someone, and the beater also warned her, don't mess with me again, otherwise you want to look good, is that what you mean?
Shen Tou asked unwillingly: "But why should I believe your words?" ”
Yes, she didn't have to believe a stranger's words.
She is an adult, and she is naturally capable of distinguishing the truth of what this man says.
Lin Lixiao frowned, lowered his head and reopened the text folder, wrote a few words on the paper, then tore it off and handed the note over.
"If you don't believe me, go to this jewelry store tomorrow at two o'clock in the afternoon, and they'll go there to choose a wedding ring, and then you'll find out if I'm lying to you or not."
Shen Tou hesitantly took the note.
Lin Lixiao saw that she was still hesitant and continued to lobby, but her tone was cold and lonely.
"It's true, I don't have to lie to you. If it's not true, why would I find you? You're a smart man, you don't want to hang yourself from a tree. ”
Shen Tou glared at him, "Then there's no need for your sister to hang herself on a tree." If Ding Wenhao really split his legs, why does the person who quit have to be me, can't your sister? ”
The two stared at each other for several seconds.
In the end, Lin Lixiao said: "Because Liyu didn't know about Ding Wenhao's split, I didn't tell her." I choose to sue you because I hope you can retreat. Liyu loves him very much, and I don't want her to be hurt in any way. ”
So she became the character who could be hurt and sacrificed casually.
So she's the one who has to quit.
But Shen Tou was angry in his heart, who wouldn't be angry when he encountered this kind of thing.
She screamed, "If you tell me about this, I can also tell your sister about this?" Why should I suffer this alone? What the fuck did I do wrong to ask you to treat me like this. ”
The anger in her heart was unquellable, she gritted her teeth and looked at Lin Lixiao angrily.
Lin Lixiao's eyes finally showed a little pity when he looked at her.
Encountering this kind of thing is really hurtful for a girl, but what can be done, she can only blame her for being unladylike.
Lin Lixiao's tone softened a little, "That's it, whatever you need, just ask, as long as I can do it, I will definitely satisfy you." ”
This is the style of rich people, slap you in the face, and then give you a sweet date.
But Shen Tou doesn't eat this.
"I don't need anything." She said this very seriously.
She reached for the cart door, and the pouring rain poured out the window and came in.
Before getting out of the car, she turned her head and sneered, "But I prefer to lose both sides rather than be in pain alone." ”
Although these words are not serious, they are full of resentment and provocation.
Lin Lixiao, before Shen Tou got out of the car, reached out and re-closed the car door.
"You dare?" His tone was menacing.
Shen Tou looked over, "Why don't I dare?" ”
Both men were furious and confronted each other, like two angry lions.
Lin Lixiao saw Shen Tou's eyes, but they were full of stubbornness.
It was a long time before Lin Lixiao spoke, "I said that you are a smart person, if you still want to stay in 'Yuanda', just keep your mouth shut obediently." This is good for you and Ding Wenhao. ”
Shen Tou suddenly smiled.
"'Yuanda', heh, in that broken place, sister is not rare. But it's really interesting for you to be a brother, the future brother-in-law is a scumbag, and the brother doesn't stop it, but comes to negotiate. How can you bear to let your sister jump into the fire? ”
After saying this, Shen Tou opened the car door, ignored the heavy rain outside the car, and walked away neatly.
Looking at that back, Lin Lixiao pondered in his heart.
Ondol? If it's really a fire kang, he'll fill it in too.
As for Ding Wenhao's, does he want his sister to marry him? But what can be done, Lin Liyu is determined to marry, and he does not hesitate to threaten suicide.
He would rather remove all obstacles for his sister than die and give her a seemingly beautiful marriage.
However, he has thousands of ways to make Ding Wenhao obedient after getting married, and no longer be a moth and cause trouble.
That's all he can do for his sister.
