Chapter 39: How Do You Know I'm Not Coming?
The car was blocked when it entered an intersection, and a long queue formed from the intersection to the back, and the car honked one after another, but it was difficult to move a meter.
Luo Nian listened to the latest navigation broadcast from the driver's radio, "There was a rear-end collision 800 meters ahead......
There was a bang in her head, and sure enough, it was just like what she had just thought.
Luo Nian glanced at the dashboard, took the money from his wallet and wanted to give it to the driver first, so he got out of the car, his hands trembling and he couldn't get the money.
Impossible.
How could it be.
Now if her own affairs involve Shen Chenliang and an innocent aunt, she will be unable to escape the blame, and the case is still secondary.
She opened the door, weaved through the traffic, went straight onto the sidewalk, and started running.
It may have been a long time since I worked out, and I was out of breath after running a few steps.
800 meters, even if it is a long-distance running race on campus when I am young, it will take a long time to slow down.
Luo Nian ran and stopped.
It took more than ten minutes to arrive at the scene of the accident.
The scene of the accident was a circle pulled up by a cordon, two cars were parked, and there was a pool of blood on the ground.
Someone next to him said, "That young man is not lightly injured." β
"I see blood all over my face, it's scary."
Fortunately, I went directly to the hospital, and the police had to judge the responsibility well.
Luo Nian held the mobile phone, his fingers trembling and pressing the number.
The elongated dripping sound inside sounded like a life-threatening note in her ears, and suddenly, a voice came from behind, "Miss Luo!" β
Luo Nian turned around suddenly, and it was Shen Chenliang who was standing not far away.
She hurriedly walked over, "What's going on?" β
Shen Chenliang saw that Luo Nian was sweating all over his head, and knew that he must have run over, "I wanted to call you, but the traffic police came to ask me a few questions...... It's okay, a car in front of me suddenly crossed over, and then rear-ended, I slammed the steering wheel and hit the sidewalk guardrail, and it was fine. β
"What about that aunt?"
"It's fine."
Luo Nian followed the direction of Shen Chenliang's finger and saw a middle-aged woman dressed plainly, with short hair that looked very capable, looking more than fifty years old.
Shen Chenliang introduced: "This is Aunt Fang Ke, this is the person I mentioned to you. β
Luo Nian, as a junior, took the initiative to reach over, "Hello Aunt Fang." β
Fang Ke glanced at her lightly and retracted his gaze, "Lawyer Shen, can you go?" β
Luo Nian's hand froze in mid-air, a little inexplicably embarrassed.
Fortunately, Shen Chenliang enlivened the atmosphere in time and asked Luo Nian to get in the car.
Luo Nian hesitated for a moment whether to sit in the passenger seat or sit in the back seat with Fang Ke, Fang Ke looked at her with obvious dislike, and even indifferent.
In the few seconds she hesitated, Fang Ke had already walked straight past her, opened the co-pilot's door, and sat in by herself.
In this way, there is no need for Luo Nian to entangle himself.
Shen Chenliang and Fang Ke exchanged questions and answers on how to deal with the opposing lawyer's question, and Luo Nian tilted his head to look out of the car window.
It's also very strange, obviously this Fang Ke looks like he can't get used to her, but he still has to take the initiative to show up to testify against her?
I don't know what Song Xiting used to persecute others.
The scenery swept over the window, and Luo Nian's eyes were in a trance, as if he had seen Xie Jinghuan's car.
It was Du Feng who drove the car.
Thinking of Xie Jinghuan, Luo Nian felt a little irritable again.
She was upset in the cold war in the past two days, and Xie Jinghuan didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, she didn't go back to Lushui Jiangting all day yesterday, and she didn't go back last night.
She originally wanted to wait for Xie Jinghuan to go back, but in front of him, she packed up her suitcase and slammed the door directly.
As a result, he hung her like this for a day, and all her "revenge" came to naught.
When they arrived at the court, Shen Chenliang's assistant had already gone to apply for a delay in time, and just when they arrived, several people entered the court.
This time, Jiang Minlan from Luo Jianmei's side didn't come, she just had a stamped confession.
After Fang Ke made his statement, he answered several questions from the opposing lawyer, Shen Chenliang submitted evidence of dialectical argumentation, and the judge called for an adjournment, and announced the result ten minutes later.
These ten minutes are also difficult for Luo Nian.
Xie Jinghuan was not by her side, which made her feel empty in her heart.
Song Xiting made a phone call, "Is it over?" β
"Well, I'm still waiting for the results, and I guess I'll be fine soon."
"My car is outside the courthouse, waiting for you to come out."
"Okay."
Hanging up Song Xiting's words, Luo Nian felt a little lighter in his heart.
Ten minutes later, the court reconvened and the results were announced.
When the judge announced that the evidence was insufficient and Luo Nian was released in court, Lawyer Shen smiled at Luo Nian, "You can relax." β
Luo Nian breathed a long sigh of relief, "Thank you, Lawyer Shen. β
When she went out, she walked towards Fang Ke in particular, "Aunt Fang, thanks to you this time, can I treat you to a meal?" β
"No need," Fang Ke didn't have the slightest room to turn around, interrupted in a cold voice, passed in front of her, and left directly.
Shen Chenliang was also a little puzzled and said in the back: "Aunt Fang is very kind, how can you ...... Miss Luo, don't take it personally. β
"Nothing."
Luo Nian waved her hand, she has always had a big heart, if she cares about everyone's opinion of her, I'm afraid she won't have to live until now, she has been wishing she died since she was a child.
She and Shen Chenliang walked out and saw the wheelchair parked in front of the RV at a glance.
stared at her fixedly, and saw Luo Nian raise his hand and wave.
Luo Nian walked over quickly, Song Xiting had already turned his wheelchair over, he took the initiative to reach out and shake Shen Chenliang with a smile, "Lawyer Shen, thank you very much for helping Nian Nian." β
"Nothing, that's what I'm supposed to do."
"We booked a private room in the restaurant, I don't know if Lawyer Shen has time?"
"My wife cooked at home and waited for me to go back, so unfortunately I didn't follow Miss Luo."
Luo Nian said goodbye to Shen Chenliang, watched Shen Chenliang leave, and then turned around and asked, "Aren't you going to have treatment today?" How did it come? β
"Go tomorrow, today is a good day for you to clear your grievances, how can I not come and celebrate you well."
Luo Nian snorted and laughed, "Still wronged...... I'm still snowing in June. β
"Snow in June?"
Although Song Xiting is of a quarter Chinese ancestry and speaks Chinese quite fluently, after all, he grew up abroad, and he didn't learn those ancient legends Chinese school.
Luo Nian turned Song Xiting's wheelchair over, "It's Dou E's injustice, in ancient times, there was a woman named Dou E...... Then she was persecuted, so she confessed in tears, and on the day of the execution, Dou E made three vows, one to overshoot the knife, one to splash all the blood on Bai Lian, the second to let the sky snow fall heavily to cover her body, and the third to let Chuzhou drought for three years, and then these three were fulfilled one by one. β
Song Xiting listened with some emotion, "Is there really such a thing?" β
"Yes, it's a script based on folk tales."
Luo Nian pushed Song Xiting to get into the car, the car started, she turned her head and glanced out of the car window, and saw Fang Ke standing on the side of the road, looking towards the car.
"Stop!"
Luo Nian called to stop, the driver stepped on the brakes and stopped on the side of the road, she was just about to open the car door, Fang Ke had already turned around and left.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing," Luo Nian lowered the window and pointed to Fang Ke's back, "That's the aunt who testified to me." β
Song Xiting looked over, "It's time to thank this aunt." β
Luo Nian cut off, and tapped his finger on Song Xiting's shoulder, "Say, how did you force people to testify against me, is it money or a stick?" She looks like she really hates me. β
Song Xiting frowned slightly, "I haven't looked for her." β
"Not what you were looking for?" Luo Nian was a little surprised.
"It's not me, I just dredged up the relationship between the court and a certain bureau, even if there is no witness, the other party's evidence is not enough to convict."
Song Xiting will not take credit, but he will not take credit for what he did not do.
Luo Nian propped his cheeks, "Who is that?" β
Nina in front of her said, "Maybe I just saw something unpleasant and wanted to help you." β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Nina has recently had a soft spot for Chinese food, and the nannies in Huayuan have been banned from cooking Western food, and must be Chinese.
In the box, Song Xiting and Luo Nian were talking about what had happened recently, and Nina was eating non-stop next to her.
Luo Nian kicked Nina under the table, "Can't you eat slowly?" β
She winked at her, and a pair of eyes read: Don't you still want to win favor in front of Song Xiting? I ate so much that it was like I hadn't eaten for three days.
Nina was peeling the spicy crayfish with both hands, "No." β
ββ¦β¦β
After eating, Nina wanted to pack and bring back a spicy crayfish.
Taking advantage of Song Xiting to go to the front to settle the bill, Luo Nian pulled Nina aside, "Knowing that Song Xiting can't eat spicy food now, you still bring back spicy crayfish." β
Nina blinked, "You feel sorry for him?" β
"yes."
"Ouch."
ββ¦β¦β
Luo Nian suddenly thought that now Nina must have regarded her as a rival in love, so he patted her on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I don't like Song Xiting anymore." β
Song Xiting turned his wheelchair and just stopped at a position only two meters behind Luo Nian, and heard Luo Nian's words accurately.
Nina looked sideways at Luo Nian and asked, "You don't like it at all?" β
"Yes, I have a boyfriend," although it is still in the cold war, "you can rest assured, I don't want to rob you." β
Nina shook her head, "Then you don't regret it?" If Xiting likes you. β
Luo Nian's expression was stunned for a moment, "How is it possible?" You were there when he rejected me. β
"That's because ......"
"Nina."
Song Xiting turned his wheelchair and passed by Luo Nian, "Let's go." β
Along the way, Song Xiting was silent.
Luo Nian was also thinking about Xie Jinghuan and didn't speak.
Nina wanted to say something to liven up the atmosphere, but when the words came to her lips, she still kept her mouth shut.
In this atmosphere, her speech is also embarrassing, and it is estimated that no one will talk to her.
"You still have your things in Huayuan, or not?"
When the driver asked where he was going, Song Xiting opened his mouth and asked Luo Nian.
Luo Nian reacted and remembered that his things were actually nothing particularly expensive, but he still nodded, "Yes, then let's go to Huayuan first." β
Anyway, she doesn't want to go back to Lushui Jiangting yet.
Just find a place to sit.
Luo Nian cleaned up his things in Huayuan, and asked the nanny here to get a fruit plate, ate for a while, and saw that the time was almost ten o'clock before he got up to leave.
Song Xiting has changed into a set of dark gray home clothes.
His facial features are Westernized, deep, three-dimensional, plus a pair of blue eyes, light linen hair, the whole person looks very gentle and gentle, like a gentle sea breeze blowing on the sea.
"It's late, would you like to sleep here for the night?"
Luo Nian clapped his hands and stood up, "No need, I'll go back, no matter how late the night road is, I'll walk alone, there's nothing to be afraid of." β
Song Xiting's eyes quickly flashed with loneliness, "Then I'll call the driver to see you off." β
"No need ......"
"William! Find Uncle Zhang to send Miss Luo ......"
"Don't bother, tell me to send her."
Nina came down the stairs in a long red dress, "I asked my girlfriend to see the night view, and I was going to drive to see you." β
Nina is an all-round driver, when she was abroad, Luo Nian only competed with her once, and she lost miserably.
"Luo Nian."
"Huh?"
Luo Nian knew that Nina offered to come out to send her, there must be something to say.
"Why aren't you thinking about Song Xiting?"
Luo Nian was stunned for a moment, "You are quite dedicated, give me your own bamboo horse?" β
Nina laughed, "Xiting and I are childhood sweethearts, but friendship is definitely not love, I treat him as a relative and a friend, but not a boyfriend, I have a fiancΓ©." β
βοΌοΌοΌβ
Luo Nian was taken aback.
She always thought that Song Xiting liked Nina, and the two were in love.
In this way, Song Xiting rejected her because there was someone else in her heart?
"Luo Nian, I think you are very smart, with a high IQ and high EQ, and when you meet someone you like, you will boldly say it, but now you are really like a fool, will the IQ of people in love decline?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Xiting likes you, always likes you......"
"No, you were there when he rejected me."
"He's not refusing," Nina shook her head with a smirk, "he knows you're happy when you like him, and he likes you too." β
"Then why did he reject me?"
"Because of his legs."
Luo Nian moved his lips, and the words in his mouth seemed to be sealed all at once, and he was dumbfounded.
"He is a man, a man needs to be able to help you shelter from the wind and rain when you need him, and can help you resist the wind, frost and sword, but his legs are disabled, and when you faint in the rain, when you fall in front of his car in a car accident, you can't pick you up, that feeling, it's better to push you away, and stay away."
Luo Nian completely lost his voice.
Her eyes were staring at the windshield without focus, the night in front of her was dark, and on either side were lonely and speechless lampposts.
Nina gave Luo Nian a moment to leave blank before he continued, "After he knew that you had returned to China, he told me that if he came to you and you still liked him, he proposed to you, and the diamond rings for the proposal had been bought, as early as two months ago, he had called the world's top jewelry design master and told her your size, a few days ago, the ring had just been flown back, very beautiful." β
Luo Nian didn't speak, and he didn't know what to say.
Nina sent her to Lushui Jiangting, "Do you want me to accompany you up?" β
Luo Nian waved his hand.
She made her way down the hallway, stumbling a little along the way, her mind blank.
It was because of Song Xiting's refusal that she met Xie Jinghuan freely.
But now Nina said that in fact, Song Xiting likes her.
If you still like him when he comes to you, he will propose to you. γ
The result?
She fell in love with someone else.
It's only been a few months before and after, Song Xiting's liking can be permanent, but why is her liking so short-lived?
Luo Nian leaned against the elevator wall, and when he closed his eyes, it was Song Xiting's sea-blue eyes.
She got out of the elevator and walked to the door, but instead of pressing the code to get in, she leaned against the wall, crouched down and hugged her legs.
For a long time, her legs were numb while squatting, but she still maintained such a position and remained motionless.
She pulled out her phone and dialed Nina's number.
Nina answered the phone, "What, is there anything for me to tell Song Xiting?" β
"No, I just want to tell you," Luo Nian patted his cheek, "I have a boyfriend." β
Nina was silent on the other end of the phone for a moment, "Okay, tonight when I didn't say anything." β
Hanging up the phone, Luo Nian stroked his forehead a little tiredly.
How can it be that nothing has been said.
She already knows.
In this world, there are many regrets.
Love without love is one of them.
Song Xiting's refusal became the difference in Luo Nian's heart, which was completely different from Xie Jinghuan's strong intervention in her.
Nina asked during the day, "Do you regret it?"
I guess I have regrets in my heart.
If Song Xiting had agreed to her, she would not have met Xie Jinghuan abroad, nor would she choose such an extreme revenge against the Luo family, she could have come back as Mrs. Song and slapped Luo Haidong and Luo Jianmei in the face in a high-profile manner.
However, there is no if.
There's no way she can turn back.
Luo Nian clicked the code and opened the door.
The room was still as dark as expected, and there was no one.
Xie Jinghuan has not returned.
Luo Nian didn't feel anything at this time, and he was already physically and mentally exhausted thinking about Song Xiting's affairs.
Feeling the switch on the wall and turning on the light, she took two steps forward and was startled to see a figure already sitting on the sofa in the living room.
"You're back!"
Xie Jinghuan leaned back on the sofa, his legs folded on the coffee table in front of him, holding a cigarette in his hand, the butt of which was drifting smoke upwards and wrapping around his face.
Also, the gauze he had bandaged on his forehead.
"What's wrong with your head?"
Hearing Luo Nian's voice, Xie Jinghuan lifted his eyelids lightly.
Luo Nian walked over quickly and glanced at the gauze on Xie Jinghuan's forehead, "Are you injured?" β
"You care?"
Luo Nian listened to Xie Jinghuan's cold rhetorical question, his hand froze for a moment, and his eyes then turned cold.
She was in no mood to quarrel with Xie Jinghuan now, and she didn't want to turn the inexplicable cold war into a hot war of quarrels, so she stood up directly and was about to turn around and go upstairs.
Before he could take two steps, he was grabbed by the man's wrist.
In an instant, Luo Nian was pressed into the sofa by the man's wrist, and his body fell into the soft sofa.
"Where did you go after the trial?"
"Eat."
"Where's the meal?"
"I ......" Luo Nian gritted his teeth, "Do I need to report my whereabouts to you?" β
"You went to Lushui Jiangting and stayed until now."
Luo Nian looked at Xie Jinghuan closely, and she saw that in addition to the gauze bandaged on his forehead, he also had small scratches on his face and neck, as if something had broken and wiped the wounds left on his face.
"After my trial, Song Xiting came to pick me up and celebrate my exoneration, can't we go to have a meal together? You didn't come, and I can't celebrate with anyone else? β
"How do you know I'm not here?"
"Are you ......" Luo Nian looked at him suspiciously, "You're here?" β
Xie Jinghuan hooked his lips coldly, got up directly from the sofa, turned around and went upstairs.
This night, Xie Jinghuan simply didn't return to the master bedroom.
The two are not considered to have quarreled, and they can be regarded as the afterglow of the Cold War.
Luo Nian lay on the bed and couldn't fall asleep over and over, Xie Jinghuan's face kept appearing in her mind, and the blood faintly leaking from the white gauze, she always felt that something was wrong.
As soon as it was dawn the next day, Luo Nian had a pair of dark circles under his eyes and couldn't sleep anymore.
She got up and went to the kitchen to get something to eat.
At eight o'clock, Luo Nian went to the company.
Her appearance shocked the employees in the company, "Hello vice president." β
"Hello."
Luo Nian's return, for the company's senior management, there must be some people happy and some worried, happy are those young new forces, eager for Luo Nian to bring fresh vitality to the company that has gone to the twilight, worried about the old school that follows Luo Haidong.
Luo Nian has always felt that Luo Haidong's popularity in the company is good, but since the last time she had dinner with the two major shareholders of the board of directors, she felt that Luo Haidong was very unpopular.
Maybe it's the sense of oppression that has been accumulated in people's hearts for too long.
Luo Haidong is no longer the father she remembers.
It's not a good enough leader to lead a company to glory.
When Luo Nian arrived at the office, he called Ni Duo in.
Ni Duo has been buying the loose shares that Luo sold out in the past few days.
During the period when Luo Nian was framed, Luo's stock was also affected to a certain extent.
She was now waiting for an opportunity.
Luo Jianmei, who was waiting for Lan Xuan to listen, had a loophole in her mobile phone.
At noon, Luo Nian asked Ni Duowai to order a takeaway, and while she was eating, she received a call from Shen Chenliang.
"Miss Luo, is Xie Shao okay?"
βοΌβ
Luo Nian didn't understand for a while.
Shen Chenliang's voice came, "Xie Shao's phone can't get through, I want to ask him if he has been discharged from the hospital, and if the injury is serious." β
