Chapter 165. Wealthy grievances

Stunned, Chen Xuanting said curtly: "This joke you told is really ...... Uh, so special......"

As if he had found some monster, Li Xueman looked at Chen Xuanting, and said with a grin: "It's really an antique, you are still a director, you don't even have this psychological endurance, right?" Seeing Chen Xuanting's dumb cheeks, Li Xueman seemed to have a feeling of turning over to be the master, he had been suppressed by Chen Xuanting since he met him just now, but at this moment he was finally a little relieved.

After Li Xueman finished speaking, he ran forward happily, and the crisp laughter like silver bells scattered in all directions, pleasant to the ear.

Chen Xuanting looked at Li Xueman's lively and lovely figure, and couldn't help but smile a little self-deprecatingly, I haven't fallen behind so quickly, have I...... After interspersing two jokes, Li Xueman's anger towards Chen Xuanting was obviously eliminated a lot, and he soon took the initiative to talk to Chen Xuanting. When talking and laughing, Chen Xuanting was even more curious about this Li Xueman, she was born in a rich family, has a good grandfather, and has superior conditions that ordinary people can't match, it stands to reason that she should be able to study and live a better life, but why is she showing a perverse and weird side?

There must be something special about this, right?

Chen Xuanting paid close attention to Li Xueman's words, but he didn't find any clues, so he had to put these doubts in his heart for the time being, ready to be observed later.

After walking for nearly half an hour, Li Xueman finally stopped. Chen Xuanting hadn't paid much attention to the changes in the roadside environment, and after looking around a few times, he realized that he had actually come to a villa area. Because Chen Xuanting has been paying more attention to real estate news recently, he knows that this is the Bauhinia Garden, and it is said that the owners of these villas are either extremely famous and wealthy, or some high-ranking officials in Hong Kong.

Seeing the beautiful villas, Chen Xuanting was slightly stunned, and then he was relieved in his heart, according to Li Xueman's surname, he would never live with her grandfather and be disciplined by him, but would only live with her mother. And her mother runs the company alone outside the home and is away from home all year round, so she is more free. However, Chen Xuanting has always rarely paid attention to the economic news in the newspaper, otherwise she might really be able to see her mother's photo on it.

As soon as Li Xueman arrived, his smile suddenly retracted, and his face gradually became a little cold.

Chen Xuanting smiled and said, "Li Xueman, I'm already home, I won't send you in......"

"Oh, you're going back now?" After Li Xue listened to it, her expression revealed a bit of melancholy.

Sensing that there was something wrong with Li Xueman's tone, Chen Xuanting couldn't help but turn his eyes to look at her, but saw that she seemed to be a different person, and he couldn't help but feel even more surprised when he didn't have the smile just now, and said, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Nothing! It's getting late now, Brother Ting, you should hurry home too. After Li Xueman finished speaking, he turned and walked forward, but he kept his head down, not knowing what was going on in his mind.

Looking at her lonely figure walking silently, Chen Xuanting's heart suddenly moved, and he quickened his pace and walked to her side.

Li Xueman heard the footsteps, looked up and saw Chen Xuanting chasing after him, and couldn't help blinking his eyes in surprise and said, "Didn't you say you wanted to go back?" ”

Chen Xuanting said with a smile: "When did I say that I wanted to go back, this sentence seems to be what you said......"

Li Xue was speechless for a while, thinking carefully about the conversation between the two of them, Chen Xuanting really didn't seem to have said this.

Chen Xuanting swept his eyebrows with his tail finger and continued: "Well, I just said that I won't send you in, but you can invite me in...... You didn't shake your head, and I just agreed to invite me...... It's a little late, but it doesn't stop me from going in and drinking a glass of water......"

Li Xueman opened her red cherry lips in amazement, and Chen Xuanting's voice fell for a while before he puffed out his cheeks and said angrily: "I protested, who said I invited you?" ”

Chen Xuanting shook his hand with a smile and said, "The protest is invalid, why did you go just now!" ”

Li Xue said indifferently: "Why did you come to my house as a guest, and you are not one of mine?" ”

Chen Xuanting said solemnly: "Who said that I have nothing to do with you?" I'm a friend of your grandfather, and you still have to call me uncle when it comes to seniority, and it is my duty to take care of my niece's life as an uncle! ”

"You...... Then you yourself said that it is almost dark now, what uncle would go to his niece's house so late to be a guest and take care of life? Lixue exclaimed in a huff.

These words made Chen Xuanting like a lewd uncle in the comics, "I didn't have it before, but now I don't have it!" Chen Xuanting smiled, "Hurry up, if you continue to call like this, beware of luring the security guards over there." ”

Li Xueman turned his head to look, and saw that the security guard on duty at the entrance really noticed the movement here, so he reluctantly took Chen Xuanting towards his house, but he kept muttering something.

Chen Xuanting didn't care about her, and looked at the surrounding environment leisurely.

In front of each villa here is a small garden, which has everything from flowers, rockeries, fountains, etc., and some have small ponds, which looks like a bit of a garden.

After walking for a few minutes, the two came to a villa. Li Xueman took out the key to open the door and led Chen Xuanting in. The villa was quiet, there was no movement, I don't know if the people inside were asleep, or if there was no one at all. Li Xueman just turned around and closed the door, threw off his shoes casually, jumped barefoot on the sofa and sat down, staring at Chen Xuanting with those dark eyes.

Chen Xuanting smiled and sat down opposite Li Xueman, and said, "You are alone here at night?" ”

Li Xueman swept Chen Xuanting's face with an idiot-like gaze, and said angrily: "You don't need to ask, you can know at a glance!" ”

Chen Xuanting said strangely: "What about your mother?" ”

Hearing Chen Xuanting's question, Li Xueman's tone "brushed" and then cooled down and said, "She? It's very busy, and it would be nice to be able to go home once a month...... Hmph, why are you asking this, you don't want to sue her against me, do you? Unfortunately, you didn't come at the right time, if you come next Sunday, you might be able to meet her......"

Seeing that when Li Xue talked about her mother, her face was as ugly as she looked, and Chen Xuanting suddenly understood, and the relationship between their mother and daughter seemed to be very stiff...... Why is that? Generally speaking, girls who grow up in rich families will be doted on by their parents, especially like Li Xueman, whose father died early, should be very similar to her mother, but listening to her grandfather Li Zhaotai, there seems to be something wrong between this girl and her mother, no wonder Li Xueman's tone is so cold when he talks about her.

Chen Xuanting smiled and said, "Li Xueman, are you very dissatisfied with your mother?" ”

Lixue giggled, "Not satisfied? Why am I not satisfied? She gave birth to me, and worked hard to raise me to such a big age, buy me the most beautiful clothes, buy me the most fun toys, buy me such a big house, and let me go to school, what else am I not satisfied with? Heh, hehe......"

Although Li Xueman kept laughing when he spoke, that smile was uglier than crying!

What a heavy grudge! Feeling the thick bitterness and anger between Li Xueman's words, Chen Xuanting suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment, and he suddenly had some eyebrows in his heart as to why Li Xueman had those rebellious behaviors. In the blink of an eye, Chen Xuanting stared straight at Li Xueman, and asked slowly, "Li Xueman, do you really think so?" ”

Hearing Chen Xuanting's question, Li Xueman's laughter suddenly suffocated, turned his head sideways to avoid Chen Xuanting's gaze that seemed to penetrate people's hearts, and snorted: "Of course I think so, is there something wrong?" She treats me like a little princess, and she is obedient to me, she will buy me whatever I want, and I have nothing to be picky about! ”

Chen Xuanting sighed and said leisurely: "What a child, he can't even lie?" ”

Li Xue glanced at Chen Xuanting with some anger and said, "What I said is the truth, how can you conclude that I am lying?" ”

Chen Xuanting smiled slightly, looked at Li Xue and said, "Do you want to hear the truth, or do you want to hear lies?" ”

"Nonsense!" Lixue raised her head, but her eyes kept looking at the wall next to her.

Chen Xuanting narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "I'm afraid that after I say it, you won't be able to bear crying!" ”

Li Xueman felt that there was a hint of contempt in Chen Xuanting's tone, and he couldn't help it, turned his head to stare at Chen Xuanting, and said angrily: "Do you want to say it, if you don't say it, quickly pull it down...... Hmph, I'm not the kind of little girl who cries and cries when she encounters a trivial matter, and annoys people......"

Chen Xuanting looked at Li Xue Man and said, "Then I'll really say it!" ”

"Are you annoyed, like an old woman, rambling......" Li Xueman almost broke out.

Chen Xuanting coughed twice and said, "Actually, you hate your mother very much, right?" ”

As soon as this sentence came out, Li Xueman seemed to have been hit by a thunderbolt, and he was stunned. After a long time, Li Xueman shouted a little angrily: "You are talking nonsense! Why should I hate my mom? ”

Chen Xuanting said: "Of course you hate her!" You often don't go to school, you often go to bars to drink and dance, you often hang out with the gangsters, and you often stay outside until late before coming home, just to get her attention, so that she can go home a few more times a month, so that she can spend more time with her? But although she cares about you very much, although she provides you with superior living conditions, but she still rarely cares about your behavior, she is still busy working to make money, and the time to go home is as scarce as before, all this, don't you be angry with her, don't you complain about her, don't you hate her? ”

Chen Xuanting said the guess in his heart in one breath, and Li Xueman suddenly became agitated, and shouted hysterically with a red face: "You...... You are talking nonsense...... I don't go to class, go to the bar to fool around, and mess around with the gangsters are all my own business, what does it have to do with my mom, why should I get her attention? She is making more and more money, and it's too late for me to be happy, why should I be angry with her, why should I blame her, why should I hate her......"

Lixueman's voice grew higher and higher, and finally he almost shouted at a sharp voice.

Listening to Li Xueman's tone becoming more and more angry, Chen Xuanting knew that most of his guesses were right, and his words hit Li Xueman's sore spot, so he said lightly: "Is this really the case?" Since it has nothing to do with your mother, why do you expect others to tell your mother about these things? ”

"You talk nonsense...... You are talking nonsense...... It's all made up by yourself...... Villain, you villain......" Li Xueman's fingers were about to touch Chen Xuanting's nose, and his eyes were red with excitement, and his body began to tremble slightly.

Looking at Li Xueman's pitiful appearance, Chen Xuanting's heart softened, and he secretly wondered if he was too much and cruel to forcibly remove the mask she was wearing? However, even if Chen Xuanting is firm again, if she doesn't open the dead knot in her heart, I am afraid that she will still be fooling around like this in the future, and as time goes by, her psychology may become more and more distorted, and it is likely that her whole life will be immersed in pain and resentment...... Since Chen Xuanting knew about this, how could he watch this flower-like girl sink again...... Without waiting for Li Xueman to continue scolding, Chen Xuanting grabbed her wrist, moved away from his nose, and continued to say in that somewhat indifferent tone: "You touch your chest and think about it, are these words really made up by me?" Okay, it's okay if you don't admit that I hit your heart, let me ask you again, why does your grandfather say he owes you a lot? Does your mother's departure have something to do with him? If you don't obey your grandfather's discipline, are you taking revenge? Are you deliberately making some rebellious moves, are you getting your mother's attention? ”

"Nope! None at all! It's not grandpa's fault, it's not mom's fault, it's the damn guy's fault! Lixue covered her ears and screamed, tears pouring out of her eyes.

Chen Xuanting listened to her poignant voice, his nose gradually became a little sour, he sighed secretly, and continued: "No matter whose fault it is, it doesn't matter who the villain who makes you can't be with your mother; Now that you have no father, and now that your mother is not around, you can only stay in this deserted house every day, no matter how much you miss your mother, it is difficult for her to find time to accompany you...... Don't you complain about any of this? ”

"You talk nonsense...... You are talking nonsense...... I'm not complaining at all...... I'm very happy...... I have friends, a car, a house, money, and a lot of things......" At this time, Li Xueman had already burst into tears. As she spoke, she danced and laughed a little maniacally.

Worst! It can't be over-stimulated, right?

Chen Xuanting was shocked, sat down on Li Xueman's side, grabbed her arm, and shouted in a deep voice: "Li Xueman, wake up, do you want to keep running away like this?" ”

Chen Xuanting wanted to calm Li Xueman's mind, and his voice was inevitably loud when he said this, and after it floated into Li Xueman's ears, her heartstrings couldn't help but tremble, she looked up at Chen Xuanting blankly, and muttered in a daze: "I complain, of course I will complain, why did I be born in such a family?" What about having money? What if Grandpa loves me? Mom isn't with me, I miss her so much, woo woo woo woo ......"

Speaking of this, Li Xue was sad from the heart, and suddenly threw herself into Chen Xuanting's arms and cried.

Li Xueman's hoarse cry hit Chen Xuanting's eardrums like a wave, making him feel very uncomfortable, this little girl seems to have been suppressed for too long. Chen Xuanting only patted Li Xueman's back gently, and did not say anything to comfort her, at this time, it was a good thing for her to cry happily.

Li Xueman, who has rarely shed tears since he was sensible, cried like a collapsed embankment at this time, and the tears that had been hidden for more than ten years were like a flash flood, all gushing out at this moment...... In the blink of an eye, the tears soaked the clothes on Chen Xuanting's chest, and the sticky coldness made Chen Xuanting's heart soft and his chest churned.

Time passed with Li Xueman's tears, and I don't know how long it took, thinking that she was tired of crying, and the howling voice gradually turned into a sob: "Woo...... Brother Ting, do you know, I'd rather not have those beautiful clothes than this luxurious house...... Woo, as long as my mother can always be by my side, even if I wear the most ordinary clothes and live in a small narrow bungalow, I am satisfied......"

Chen Xuanting sighed: "Then did you tell her these thoughts of yours?" ”

Li Xueman left Chen Xuanting's arms, wiped his eyes and shook his head...... Chen Xuanting said: "You have been hiding your thoughts in your heart and not saying it, how does she know what you think?" ”

Li Xue choked up and said: "I thought about telling her, but every time she came back, she left again within a few minutes, and when she called her, she hung up without saying a few words, and I didn't even have a chance to tell her...... Only once when I skipped class when I was in junior high school, my grandfather called her, and she finally came back to visit me, and I thought I would see her in this way, so I often skipped class in the future......"

Hearing her weird and childish thoughts, Chen Xuanting was angry and funny in his heart, and said: "So you just gave up on yourself later, do you know that you are not only hurting your mother, but also hurting yourself?" ”

"I know, but I just want to be angry with her, and as soon as she comes back, I'll lose my temper with her and drive away all the people she has invited to take care of me,......" Lixue Man cried, her voice a little hoarse.

Chen Xuanting said: "Are you going to keep opposing her like this?" You know, she's your mother, your only relative in the world! ”

Li Xueman wiped his cat-like cheeks and said, "So what? I'll never forgive her anyway......"

Listening to Li Xueman's tone of voice was very decisive, Chen Xuanting had a headache, it seems that if you want to ease the relationship between their mother and daughter, it is not just about persuading Li Xueman to work, uh, you have to find someone to talk to her mother in the future.

"You must be laughing at me in your heart, have pity on me, right?" Seeing Chen Xuanting sitting in the snow and not making a sound, Li Xue puffed up his red eyes when he stepped up.

Seeing Li Xueman's expression, Chen Xuanting's heart was full of pity, he gently patted her on the shoulder, and said with a slight smile: "You can tell me these thoughts, it's too late for me to be happy, how can I laugh at you and pity you!" ”

Li Xue angrily pushed away Chen Xuanting's palm and hummed: "I don't want to tell you, these are all things you forced me to say!" ”

Chen Xuanting said softly: "No matter what, it's good if you can say what is in your heart, it's easy to get sick if you keep it in your heart." Do you feel much more comfortable now than you used to? ”

Li Xue nodded vigorously, but quickly bit her lip and said, "It's all you, who made me cry for so long." ”

Chen Xuanting smiled: "I told you a long time ago, you may not be able to bear the crying nose, you see, I am not wrong......" As he spoke, Chen Xuanting took out a small mirror from behind him as if by magic and placed it in front of Li Xueman.

"This seems to be my mirror, why is it in your hand?" Li Xue looked at Chen Xuanting in amazement, she remembered that the mirror had been in her pocket.

Chen Xuanting said with a smile: "I picked it up in that parking lot!" ”

I guess I taught those people a lesson and accidentally got rid of it! Li Xueman glared at Chen Xuanting fiercely, snatched the mirror from his hand, and stared at it, but saw that the face shown in the mirror was mottled with tears, and her cheeks were red, and she seemed to be embarrassed to lower her head, but after a few seconds, she laughed out again...... Chen Xuanting shook his head, took out a tissue from his pocket, and handed it over.

Li Xueman stretched out her hand and took it silently, wiped it quickly on her face a few times, and suddenly raised her eyes that were still stained with tears to look at Chen Xuanting, and said with a flat mouth: "Woo, what should I do, I still want to cry......"

Chen Xuanting was slightly stunned, then pointed to his sticky left chest, and said, "If you want to cry, cry, I'll always be free here!" ”

As soon as the voice of Chen Xuanting's last word disappeared, Li Xueman threw herself into Chen Xuanting's arms with a "wow", rubbing her cheek on Chen Xuanting's right chest while howling. Chen Xuanting only felt a little itchy on his chest at first, but soon the place where Li Xue rubbed it began to stick again, and he suddenly realized in his heart, where did this little girl want to cry, she clearly planned to leave all these snot and tears for herself as a souvenir!

Chen Xuanting looked down, and had to smile bitterly, anyway, the clothes are already like this, so let her wipe them well, and just make amends for her cruel words. made up his mind, Chen Xuanting didn't dodge, and gently put his hands on her back, letting the little flower cat rub in his arms.

Feeling Chen Xuanting's gentle actions, Li Xueman's shrugged shoulders paused slightly, and soon after, the cry gradually became louder.

This cry was completely different from the feigned cry just now.

Chen Xuanting was surprised in his heart: "Really crying again?" ”

After sitting still like this for a while, Li Xueman's crying finally stopped. Seeing that she had been lying on her chest and not moving, Chen Xuanting unconsciously pressed her shoulders in surprise and helped her body up, only to realize that her eyes had narrowed tightly, thinking that she was crying and crying and fell asleep!

Looking at her slightly fluttering eyelashes, Chen Xuanting sighed shallowly, stood up and found a bedroom, and hugged her in.

After helping Li Xueman cover the quilt, Chen Xuanting sat in front of the bed for a few minutes, listening to her breathing gradually stabilize before turning off the lights and leaving...... At this time, Li Xueman didn't know if he had dreamed of something, turned over, pursed his lips, and whispered, "...... Mom, will you stay a little longer, just a while, I don't want to leave you......"

Although this little girl says that she hates her mother, she still loves her very much in her heart!

Is love deep, hate deep? Chen Xuanting sighed with emotion for a while...... "I know that grandpa drove you away...... It's not your fault...... He's already regretted it, come back! Liseman continued to whisper.

Chen Xuanting couldn't help but be stunned, it seemed that things were not as simple as he thought. Could it be that Li Xueman's mother was driven away by Li Zhaotai?

Why did he drive away his daughter-in-law? What's so strange about this? And who is the big bad guy in Lixueman's mouth? Could it be that he ruined the happiness of the Li family?

Chen Xuanting couldn't figure it out. After all, these wealthy grievances are not something that ordinary people can understand.

The night dissipated, and the sky gradually became a hint of fish belly white.

The dawn shines through the glass windows, illuminating the bedroom.

Li Xueman rolled left and right on the bed a few times, slowly opened his eyes, and saw the very familiar windowsill, tables and chairs, and couldn't help but sit up suddenly, the scene that happened last night was like a marquee floating in his mind, remembering that in the end he was going to use Chen Xuanting's clothes as tissues, but he didn't expect that in the end, not only did he really cry, but he also fell asleep unconsciously...... Did he bring me in? Thinking about it, two faint blush floated on Li Xueman's cheeks.

"Why did you cry in front of him, it's so shameless!" Lixue pouted and muttered, "Stinky guy, the last time you spanked me, it made me cry again last night, it's just too bad...... Hey, it's not good, I slept last night, he won't take advantage of me when I'm unconscious, damn it......" Li Xueman looked down at himself, although he saw that he was still wearing yesterday's clothes, but the little head still couldn't help but think about it.

Thinking of the anger, Li Xueman scratched his head again and tossed the quilt.

"Oh...... Oh...... Oh......"

After a long while, the miniature alarm clock at the bedside suddenly made a muffled rooster crow.

It's half past six!

Li Xueman grabbed the alarm clock and smashed it on the table, and the sound of "bang" sounded, and the "chicken neck" seemed to be broken, and the excited sound stopped abruptly. Lifting the quilt on his lap, Li Xueman jumped out of bed, wiped his eyes barefoot and went to the balcony, stretching his body while looking at the garden in front of the villa.

In the past, whenever she saw those vigorous flowers and plants, Li Xueman would have the urge to trample them under her feet and ravage them, but now her feeling was completely different from before. Looking at the green in her eyes, she only felt an indescribable comfort in her heart, as if some heavy invisible thing on her body had suddenly been removed, and she was relaxed and freehand.

What's going on? Li Xueman felt incredible, could it be that he cried last night and made him feel better?

"How can there be such a good thing?" Li Xue pursed her lips disdainfully, and a gentle and kind face suddenly appeared in her mind, and her heart suddenly plucked again, snorted hatefully, and turned around and walked inside......
