Chapter 23
When Li Shuo heard the word "Shao Qun", he was stunned for a moment, thinking that the voice transmitted by the microphone was distorted, or he heard it wrong, how could he hear this name that had nothing to do with this situation at the birthday party of a father's friend on the other side of the ocean?
However, in the next second, he saw Zhao Jinxin's abrupt change in expression that he didn't have time to clean up, and his brain suddenly went blank.
Shao Qun...... Shao Qun?
Shao Qun is Mrs. Zhao's ...... Nephew?
Is it the same Shao Qun, will it be the same name and surname, but...... Is there such a coincidence?
Li Shuo felt that his vision was a little blurry, his mind was buzzing, the people, objects, and space around him were distorted, he heard an external sound as if it was hitting outside the eardrum through a wall, and he felt a hand grab his arm, and he almost instinctively shook it off.
In an instant, Li Shuo regained his clarity, he looked at Zhao Jinxin directly, but he couldn't say a word of questioning, and Zhao Jinxin's expression that he had never had before had already explained it.
This person...... He had no doubt that the young man he loved was the cousin of the person he hated the most?!
So what is this qiē, what is the qiē of him and Zhao Jinxin, meeting, getting along, and ...... What the are they?
Zhao Jinxin investigated him, and listened to him mention Shao Qun's name many times on the phone, it was impossible not to know anything, so the two cousins, from beginning to end, joined forces to play him ......
From start to finish.
It was as if his heart had been punched, and the dull pain and the ensuing humiliation made the blood on Li Shuo's face fade in an instant.
How the hell is this, how the fuck is this!
"Li ......" Zhao Jinxin raised his hand stiffly, wanting to hold Li Shuo's crumbling body. He didn't expect it to be exposed like this, he didn't want to be like this......
"Xiao Shuo, what's wrong with you?" Mrs. Li came over and grabbed his arm, "Oh, why is your face so ugly?" If you don't know how to dance, you'll be tired, you see that your father and I are not tired. ”
Li Shuo wrapped his fucking hand with his big hand and smiled slightly: "Mom, I'm fine, the wine is just a little top." ”
"Oh, then you go outside and blow the wind and wake up."
Zhao Jinxin said in a deep voice: "I'll take Brother Li there." ”
Li Shuo looked at Zhao Jinxin deeply. It was really amazing, it was only two minutes before and after, and he felt that this person who had seen naked was strange, so strange that his face was hateful. He put his hand in his trouser pocket, clenched it secretly, and the stinging pain of his nails in his palm in exchange for the sobriety of his brain. He stopped his waist and nodded politely at the people around him and smiled: "I'll go out and sober up." Then he strode out the door.
Zhao Jinxin gritted his teeth and followed.
The two walked out of the banquet hall, turned a little to the right, and there was an open balcony, Li Shuo walked into the balcony, looking at the starlight of the city, and there was a moment of trance.
"Li Shuo......" Zhao Jinxin called softly.
Li Shuo turned his back to Zhao Jinxin and said calmly, "Shao Qun is your cousin. ”
Zhao Jinxin took a deep breath: "Yes." ”
"He told you to approach me."
"Yes."
"Because of Li Chengxiu."
“…… Be. ”
Li Shuo turned around suddenly, his face was hideous, and he was completely devoid of his usual gentle gentleman, he picked up his fist and smashed it towards Zhao Jinxin.
Zhao Jinxin didn't hide, and he didn't even blink his eyes.
Li Shuo's fist grazed Zhao Jinxin's cheek and slammed into the wall behind him.
A hint of gloom flashed in Zhao Jinxin's eyes, and his brows were twisted.
Li Shuo looked at Zhao Jinxin's face, this face that likes to call him Uncle Li coquettishly, but has a very animalistic face in bed, this face will appear in his sweet dreams, and the corners of his mouth will rise when he thinks about it from time to time, the face of a person whose heart he likes seems to be flying.
He couldn't get his hands on it.
He has always disliked violence, so how can he use it on the people he likes. He could only stare at the scarlet eyes and gritted his teeth and said, "How dare you play with me like this!" ”
But if this qiē was a game from the beginning, then his liking for Zhao Jinxin was just an illusion. After all, Zhao Jinxin, who is reckless, cute, and has all kinds of appearances, may be pretending. Thinking of this, Li Shuo shuddered.
Zhao Jinxin grabbed his wrist and looked at the blood oozing from his fist: "I'll help you deal with it." ”
Li Shuo withdrew his hand, and he truly realized what it meant to be "confused".
Zhao Jinxin lowered his head, like a student reviewing: "I approached you because of my brother at the beginning, but I really like you too." He forced a smile, "Uncle Li, shall we talk?" ”
"I don't want to see you right now." Li Shuo really didn't have the courage to see Zhao Jinxin again. As soon as he thought of what had happened in just three months, he wondered if he had fallen under the curse. Being fascinated by a man who is 11 years younger than himself is nothing, but the other party is playing him from beginning to end!
He really wanted to know, what kind of mocking mentality did Zhao Jinxin have, watching himself being played with step by step in applause, how stupid and ridiculous he was? Just a few minutes ago, he thought that he might have met true love, and then reality slapped him with a few big ear scrapers, and the shame and resentment of being deceived and played with almost exploded from his heart and lungs!
Shao Qun, it's Shao Qun again, you actually thought of this method to fool me......
Li Shuo realized that he had to find a place to be quiet now, otherwise he would act against his cultivation, so he pushed Zhao Jinxin away and strode towards the outside of the hotel.
Zhao Jinxin chased a few steps and paused, he looked at Li Shuo's back until it disappeared, and then kicked over the trash can.
Li Shuo sent a text message to his father, saying that he was not feeling well and went back first, and took a taxi home.
Until he returned to his room and lay on the bed in the dark, Li Shuo felt that his brain was still in a hot state, and his anger and sadness did not weaken a little, on the contrary
He is not a person who will be hysterical for the sake of feelings, he can tolerate betrayal, if the other party falls in love with someone else, it may be that he is not good enough, he can also let go of refusal, after all, he is not perfect, how can he make everyone like, but he can't accept complete fooling, because it was malicious from the beginning.
And he actually ate the malicious fool as a dessert, and when he ate it, he found that it was a glass ballast, which had already cut through the internal organs and was dripping with blood.
By now, he couldn't tell which of the sad or the humiliated ones made him more painful.
Zhao Jinxin, the person who gave him infinite surprise and joy, and made him burst out with excitement and vitality, was just playing with him, he plunged into this pit, his nose was blue and his face was swollen, and Shao Qun, who was standing on the top of the pit, laughed at him and despised him in his heart.
Li Shuo clutched the quilt and let out an angry roar in the darkness.
Shao Qun, Zhao Jinxin, you deceive people too much......
Li Shuo didn't know when he fell asleep. When I woke up, it was dawn. He sat up with his head in his hands, and with a splitting headache, he slowed down for five minutes before he got out of bed and went into the bathroom.
In the mirror, a depressed and tired face was reflected, a casual suit was already wrinkled and couldn't be seen, and the whole person looked very bad, very bad.
Li Shuo mechanically took off his clothes, turned on the shower, and the cold water poured down without warning, pouring him cold, he couldn't help but curse in a low voice, his hand formed a palm, and slapped it fiercely towards the tile several times, until his wrist bone seemed to be shattered, and he stopped trembling.
He took a shower in the cold water, and only then did he feel himself calm down.
I can't remember the last time I lost control like this, and losing my reason is a very bad experience, and it can have very bad consequences. He was very glad that he didn't lose his temper in front of Zhao Jinxin yesterday, it was shameful enough to be played around, if he couldn't even hold up a free and easy posture, his thirty-four years would be in vain.
Yes, Zhao Jinxin is playing with him, the facts have become facts, and it is pointless to dwell on why he is stupid, he should still straighten his waist and help himself through the difficulties in his heart.
This difficulty is that he likes Zhao Jinxin.
That's a lot to do.
Li Shuo smiled bitterly and rubbed his hair.
Fortunately, the two have not known each other for a long time, and they have not cultivated any unforgettable feelings, I like this thing, when the love is strong, it is simply to die or live, after that energy, it is over, he likes Zhao Jinxin, but he can no longer like it, as long as he is given some time, what can't be faded. And those sweet past events that make him heart-pounding and have endless memories will definitely be sealed in the depths of memory and become meaningless.
Li Shuo comforted himself like this, trying hard to piece together the shattered self-esteem.
The phone beeped.
Li Shuo picked it up and saw that there were a lot of text messages, almost all of which were sent by Zhao Jinxin.
"Uncle Li, shall we talk?"
"Uncle Li, are you still angry with me? I didn't lie to you. ”
"Li Shuo, I really want to have a good talk with you."
Li Shuo tossed his phone aside. He could even sketch Zhao Jinxin's expression when he sent these text messages. At first, she was still coquettish, trying to weaken the impact of this incident on the two of them, and then gradually realized that she needed to face it with a correct attitude. Thinking about it carefully, Zhao Jinxin approached him with a purpose at the beginning, so when they first met, the wind-exile-Zhao Jinxin and the later Zhao Jinxin were really different, and he had been adjusting his strategy against himself according to his reaction.
Zhao Jinxin, what kind of deep scheming is he talking about love with him? !
It's just chilling.
Talk, of course they have to talk, his contract has not been signed yet, and he will return to the capital in the future, and there will be a series of follow-up cooperation to be discussed.
As for him and Zhao Jinxin, a person who dared to fool him like this had already made a judgment in his heart.
