Chapter 39: The Heart Knot
"To be honest, Su Lingxi is a very beautiful woman, but she is too scheming to stay by her side. Otherwise, you can make do with it. Shen Ling sighed: "As for your little girlfriend, I really can't guess, either she has no scheming, or she is too urban." ”
"You better think about yourself, you don't need to worry about my affairs." Xiang Ke said, "When are you going to go home?" ”
"Hahahaha." Shen Ling suddenly burst into laughter, laughing so much that tears were about to flow out: "Go home? Why did your tone suddenly become similar to my mother's? Now that even Sijia is too lazy to persuade me, you don't have to worry about me, let's get yourself into the core of the prosperous world first. ”
Xiang Ke sighed silently, gently patted Shen Ling's shoulder, and said, "Whatever you want, I'll go." ”
"You're just leaving?" Shen Ling suddenly shouted, "Just leave me here alone? Do you bear it? ”
Xiang Ke glanced at him, nodded and smiled: "I bear it, I bear it very much." ”
"Xiang Ke, you guy who is heavy on color and light on friends and forgets his righteousness!" Shen Ling was crying wolf in the private room.
Xiang Ke smiled helplessly and continued to walk out the door.
Lingche was already on her way home at this time, although her heart was full of questions, but seeing Lingxi's listless appearance, she really couldn't bear to speak at this time, and she was full of anxiety all the way while sitting in the car.
"I'll send you home first!" Lingxi opened her mouth to break the dull atmosphere in the car, and after more than ten minutes, she seemed to have returned to normal, and instantly transformed back to the original workplace white bone spirit. Although there was a smile on his face, there was no smile in his eyes, and the tone of his voice was politely a little alienated.
All in all, this attitude made Lingche uncomfortable.
I wanted to just go home like this, but I remembered that my grandfather said that the remaining newspaper clippings were borrowed by Lingxi, and I couldn't help asking: "The 91-year-old newspaper clippings that grandpa collected, I heard that it is from you, can you borrow it from me?"
Lingxi's shoulders trembled slightly, and his smile suddenly froze on his face, and he was more shocked: "For no reason, what do you think it's for?" At that time, you were just a little girl in kindergarten. ”
"I just want to borrow it to take a look, my sister won't be reluctant, right?" Lingche muttered softly.
"That newspaper clipping really means something different to me, I just can't bear it." Lingxi really quickly regained his previous combat effectiveness, and refused to give in at all.
"But that's grandpa's thing, and it doesn't belong to you!" Ling Che couldn't help but say.
"If you have the ability, you can go to grandpa and ask him to ask me." Lingxi said coldly: "It's here, it's time for you to get out of the car." ”
Lingche looked at Lingxi helplessly, she would definitely not embarrass her grandfather because of this matter, but the more Lingxi refused, the more she felt that this matter was a little strange, and the old news of 91 years naturally became a stalk in Lingche's heart, which became extraordinary.
Looking at Lingxi's face as cold as an ice cube, Lingche was much more relieved, this is the correct way for Su Lingxi to treat Su Lingche, just now in KTV, that's called abnormal! Now that she is normal, she can go home with peace of mind!
A light rain was pouring outside, just like Xiang Ke's mood at the moment, filled with gloom. Su Lingxi deliberately approached him, but failed, and turned to provoke Shen Ling. Is her purpose really as simple as marrying into a wealthy family? Xiang Ke couldn't help but shudder, grabbed his phone and called Ling Che.
With a few beeping busy tones, no one answered, Lingche at the moment, was he too busy to listen to it, or didn't want to listen to his call at all?
Thinking of this, he quickly dialed Lingxi's number again, and this time it was quickly connected, but the interest of the person who answered the phone was obviously not very high.
After confirming that the sisters had arrived home safely, and Lingche had just forgotten his phone in Lingxi's car, Xiang Ke's uneasy heart calmed down a little.
"Otherwise, you can come to my house, and by the way, help bring Lingche's mobile phone back a little." Lingxi thought for a moment and made a bold decision.
"Okay." Xiang Ke hung up the phone and drove to the address provided to her according to Lingxi's instructions.
The car was parked, and the place in front of me was brightly lit, obviously not a place where ordinary people lived. Loud music, messy dance steps, writhing crowds, everything here hints at how out of place he is with his surroundings.
Xiang Ke suddenly regretted why he made such a decision in a hurry, but since he came in, he had to find out what Su Lingxi wanted to do.
After taking a big turn in this bar called Charm, and after being accosted by three beauties and rubbing oil with two hot girls in a row, Xiang Ke finally found Su Lingxi lying there drunk in the corner of the bar.
"Lawyer Su." Xiang Ke's voice was loud, but it couldn't cover the noisy music around him.
Lingxi raised his head when he heard the sound, smirked twice at Xiang Ke Hehe, and then collapsed on the table again.
The guy at the bar ran over kindly, as if he had seen a savior, and shouted: "This young lady will order the strongest wine we have here as soon as she comes, and I can't persuade her, just know her, take her home quickly." ”
After settling the bill, Xiang Ke wanted to help her up, but the first time she met a drunk woman, no matter how Xiang Ke pulled her, she was like a puddle of mud lying on the table tightly and refused to get up. After several attempts to no avail, Xiang Ke had no choice but to pick her up and carry her on his shoulders, and then walked out under the strange hot eyes of everyone.
Because of the weight on his shoulders, it took a lot of effort for him to free his hands to open the car door and throw Lingxi into the back seat of the car. Returning to his driver's seat, he took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and Xiang Ke suddenly worried, where should I send her?
"Lawyer Su, where is your home? I'll send you back. "Home." Lingxi muttered quietly, but pointed to the direction of the bar when he came, and muttered in a low voice, "Home." ”
Xiang Ke saw that she was so drunk that she couldn't tell the difference between the east and the west, and couldn't help but sigh: "Forget it, let's call my wife and ask, she must know." ”
"Don't." Su Lingxi suddenly roared loudly, his eyes buried in the car seat raised and glanced at Xiang Ke, and then he fell asleep in the back seat again.
"What?" Xiang Ke was puzzled, "At this time, where are you going if you don't go home?" ”
"Shame on ......you" Xiang Ke actually heard a lonely taste from Lingxi's voice, so he couldn't bear to talk about her anymore, after thinking about it for a while, he asked tentatively: "Help you book a hotel, you rest for one night and then go home, how about it?" ”
A word floated out of Lingxi's mouth softly: "Okay." ”
Xiang Ke looked around, there was a star-rated hotel opposite the bar, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he drove the car in.
Under the strange gaze of the front desk lady, Xiang Ke carried the drunk Su Lingxi into the elevator, and after opening the door with a lot of effort, he threw her directly on the bed.
Seeing her like this, Lingche's mobile phone probably couldn't be taken back, Xiang Ke helped Lingxi cover the quilt, and simply cleaned up the room, and then he turned around and planned to leave.
Su Lingxi got up from the bed at some point, wrapped his arms around Xiang Ke's waist from behind, and whispered, "You know what? Actually, the person I have always liked is you, but how can you be a member of the Shen family? ”
Xiang Ke was shocked, broke free of Lingxi's embrace, turned around, and looked at her quietly: "Lawyer Su pretended to be drunk, is it just to say these things to me?" ”
"It's real to be drunk, you don't need to dress." Su Lingxi smiled sadly: "It's true that I like you, and there is no need to hide it." If it weren't for the wine, I probably wouldn't have had the courage to confess to you a second time. The first time, you hurt too deeply. ”
"If I'm not mistaken, Lawyer Su has already confessed to Shen Ling once this evening, this frequency is really reminiscent of Pianpian!" Xiang Ke looked at Su Lingxi, who was slumped on the bed, and chuckled.
"That dumb kid, how could I possibly fall in love with him?" Lingxi said faintly: "I pursued him for a purpose, are you interested in knowing?" "I'm sorry, I'm leaving, I'm not interested in your secrets." Xiang Ke smiled slightly, and was about to turn around and walk out.
"You Shen family, after all, I'm sorry for our Su family!" Lingxi suddenly shouted loudly: "My father's death, your family must be inseparable." This is the purpose of my approach to Shen Ling. When I find the evidence and bring down the Shengshi Group, your grandfather, my grandfather, there are grievances and grievances of the older generation, how far do you think you and your Su Lingche can go? ”
Xiang Ke couldn't help but stop, and sure enough, as he feared, everything that happened in the past was like a spell, and it could jump out at any time and disrupt his normal life. He turned his head slowly, the expression on his face was indiscerning: "In that case, what do you want?" ”
"I, what else can I do? You are a member of the Shen family, my enemy! Lingxi's voice was a little choked, like a dream: "However, if you are willing to join forces with me to bring down Shen Shenghua, we may be able to continue to be friends." After all, your surname is Xiang, not Shen, maybe we still have a chance to ......"
Xiang Ke sneered, looked at the lawyer Su in front of him, who was also a leader in the legal industry, and said, "It is absolutely impossible for me to betray my grandfather." "Even if it doesn't work for me, what about Lingche?" Lingxi looked into Xiang Ke's eyes and shouted in despair.
"It's impossible." Xiang Ke said coldly: "Lingche won't mind as much about the past as you do. ”
"Okay, I see." A faint smile quietly appeared on Lingxi's face: "It seems that you don't love her deep enough, so I'm balanced." ”
Xiang Ke felt that there was no need to continue the conversation with her, so he really walked out the door, and just dropped a sentence lightly before leaving: "It seems that you really don't understand love." Lawyer Su, sober up here, it's really a shame for you to go home like this. ”
