"I thought you were studying law and would learn smarter, but I didn't expect you to be so stupid!" Shen Ling sighed and said, "Why do you say that you are doing this, because my aunt and I both regard you as our own, won't you tell us if you have difficulties?" Whether it is money or effort, Xiaoqing will never be left alone at home. ”

"Is it pitiful to be alone at home?" Ling Che frowned and said, "When I was a child, I was often locked in the house by my parents, why didn't I sue them for abusing me?" ”

"Look at you, it's clear that you're angry." Shen Ling snorted: "This is the United States, you have to learn to follow the customs!" ”

"It's already like this, what else can I do?" Ling Che spread his palm and said helplessly.

"What's going on lately? Why did Xiaoqing suddenly take the initiative to cooperate with Xiang Ke to dismantle your stage. Shen Ling frowned and said, "This little girl, is her wings really hard?" ”

Lingche's head was buzzing, but what came to mind was the anger that flashed in Xiaoqing's eyes on the night she agreed to Xie Junping's marriage proposal.

It's anger, right? She thought that the child was ignorant and would be fine in two days, but she didn't expect that she not only provoked Xiang Ke to participate in this child-snatching battle, but even released a big move, simply confessing the fact that she locked her alone at home.

"Su Lingche, are you okay?" Shen Ling saw her sad face, and his voice couldn't help but soften: "I just said it casually, I hope you can help Xiaoqing untie the knot." How big a knot can such a young child have. ”

"Big brother proposed to me." Lingche's voice was soft and glutinous, but it hit Shen Ling's heart like a lightning strike.

"You agree?" Shen Ling suddenly jumped up: "You can't be so stupid, right?" ”

Then he saw Lingche nodding innocently: "I just want to start a new life." ”

"Holy!" Shen Ling patted his thigh and said, "Didn't he take advantage of others' danger?" Xiaoqing did a good job, it should be time to wake you stupid guy! ”

Ling Che was so angry that he stomped his feet: "Why do you say that about me?" ”

"Do you still love him?" Shen Ling didn't take Ling Che's words, he said seriously, he looked at Ling Che's confused eyes, and added, "I mean Xiang Ke."

Ling Che obviously didn't expect Shen Ling to suddenly throw out such a question, she shook her head: "I don't know. ”

"If I were Xie Junping, I would really be so angry with your four words that I would vomit blood." Shen Ling smiled bitterly: "If he really understands you, he should know your current state, and he will not choose to propose to you at this time." ”

"You are not allowed to sow discord." Ling Che said with a frown.

"I'm telling the truth, but it's a pity that there are always people who don't like to hear the truth." Shen Ling lowered his eyebrows and smiled lightly, the peach blossoms swaying in his eyes: "I advise you to reject him first, and then have a good chat with Xiaoqing, maybe there is a turnaround." ”

He gritted his teeth, and finally held back the other half of the words in his heart, although he hoped that she would be happy, but when he thought that her happiness would have nothing to do with him in the end, he still felt unwilling.

"Thank you." Lingche's voice was full of despair: "But even if Xiaoqing is willing to come back, the government may not let me go." ”

"Let's take one step at a time." Shen Ling said with a smile: "The worst situation is that you take Xiaoqing back to China, and then continue to fight a lawsuit with Xiang Ke, maybe you will become a family." Although he was joking, there was a hint of sadness hidden in his eyes.

Ling Che glared at him, got up and prepared to go home, in his small apartment, Xie Junping was still waiting for her. Although she didn't really want to face him at the moment, she couldn't avoid what she should face.

Shen Ling sent her downstairs, looked up at the glimmer of light from the window upstairs, and said with a smile: "Do you want me to accompany you up?" ”

Ling Che glanced at him and shook his head: "There's no need for that. She is not a three-year-old child, she will not make promises easily, and she will not easily give up the promises she made.

Before she went upstairs, the door had already opened, and Xie Junping looked at her with a tired face and said, "Why did you come back so late?" What about Xiaoqing? ”

Thinking of Xiaoqing, Lingche only felt astringent in his heart, and his eyes suddenly turned red.

Xie Junping guessed most of it, thinking that Xiaoqing was not taken away by Shen Ling, and his heart that had been carrying it was half relieved: "I just saw it, it was Shen Ling who sent you back?" ”

Lingche nodded: "Hmm." ”

"How did he know you were at the police station, and you just happened to run into you?" Although he knew that he shouldn't get to the bottom of it at this moment, the thought of her actually staying with Shen Ling until so late before coming back, the anger in his heart surged upward.

"Mrs. Lin came to see Xiaoqing today, and she just happened to see me being taken away by the police." Ling Che looked at Xie Junping calmly and said calmly: "Are you still satisfied with this answer?" ”

"Lingling, I didn't mean that." Xie Junping scratched his hair in a daze: "All night, I've been worrying about you." ”

"Big brother, I'm tired, you can go back first." Ling Che let out a long breath and spoke.

"But, I miss you so much." Xie Junping leaned over, kissed her arm gently, and murmured, "Xiaoqing is not here tonight, can I stay with you?" As he spoke, his hands became restless.

Ling Che suddenly felt very desperate, desperate as she had never been, she pushed Xie Junping away, but Shen Ling's words came to her mind: Do you still love him?

"I'm sorry, I can't." Lingche knelt on the ground and whimpered softly: "At this time, I can't help it. ”

Xie Junping rubbed his aching chin and laughed at himself: "Forget it, you should rest early." With that, he left the apartment with his clothes in his hand.

Downstairs in the apartment, Shen Ling sat in the car, watching Xie Junping walk downstairs with a dejected face, sitting quietly smoking in the night light, and there was an inexplicable sympathy in his heart. Is it sympathy? Or rather, a sigh of sympathy! The man who fought with him, the man who claimed to be able to protect Lingqing, was defeated in the end, like himself.

He really wanted to go over and accompany Xie Junping to talk about life, talk about ideals, and summarize the lessons and lessons they have learned from friends and enemies over the years. But looking at the other party's depressed face, he felt like he was looking in the mirror, and through the sad man in the mirror, he saw his embarrassing position.

He is not even as good as him, at least he still has the courage to propose to her.

But Shen Ling didn't dare, he didn't know what he was afraid of, but he didn't even have the courage to say what he liked. In front of her, he can only lose his temper like a child, say all kinds of hurtful things to attract her attention, how naïve!

In the end, they didn't lose to anyone, but to Lingche's heart, which had long since lost its own......
