Chapter 64: Departure
When Lin Xi and the others rushed over, Zhao Lingzhi was standing alone in the wind, and his constricted body made Lin Xi look a little distressed.
"Second brother, you can put it down now. My sister-in-law has nothing to do. Long Aotian said with a smile, turned his head and said to Zhao Lingzhi again: "Sister-in-law, you don't know what to do, the second brother rushed over like crazy, it's not good to take a taxi so late, we ran all the way, my second brother doesn't care, I must be happy to see that you have nothing to do." I'm different, I've burned too many calories along the way, and now I'm grumbling with hunger. When you get back, you're going to make me something to eat and comfort my stomach. ”
Zhao Lingzhi looked at Long Aotian's pitiful expression, smiled slightly, stroked his long hair blown by the wind, and said with a smile: "No problem, as long as you are not afraid of fat." ”
"Ha Luha, don't worry. The biggest characteristic of me is that I don't get fat by eating anything. ”
Lin Xi stood next to him, feeling that Zhao Lingzhi today was a little wrong with before, and he couldn't say where it was, so he just had an intuition, and asked with some concern: "You said just now that someone was following you, what's going on?" ”
Hearing this, Zhao Lingzhi stuck out his tongue and said to Lin Xi playfully: "It's all my fault, no one follows me at all." It should be my delusion, I'm sorry, I'm going to let you run for nothing at night. ”
Hearing this, although Lin Xi still felt that Zhao Lingzhi's performance today was different from usual, he didn't think much about it, nodded and replied: "That's good, okay, it's not too early, let's go back." I've already rented the house, it's around here, and I'll pick you up when you get off work in the future. ”
"Okay, then it's settled." Zhao Lingzhi lightly held Lin Xi's arm, rested his head on his shoulder, and responded sweetly.
It was Long Aotian who said in a strange voice on the side: "Hey! You two don't want to be like no one else, okay, I'm watching from the sidelines, don't treat me as air. ”
"Rest yours, it's almost home."
At night, it finally quieted down, and when Lin Xi and Zhao Lingzhi said goodbye, Long Aotian was still staring at Lin Xi with aggrieved eyes, and his supper was shattered under the excuse that Lin Xi was too tired for Zhao Lingzhi.
The night continued, and in the sound of Long Aotian's snoring, Lin Xi tossed and turned, and he was still confused in his heart, but after thinking about it, he didn't feel that something was wrong.
Until the sky was clear, Lin Xi, who had just fallen asleep for a long time, only heard a knock on the door.
Long Aotian was also awakened by this voice, sat up from the bed suddenly, and asked sleepily, "What's the situation?" What about demolishing the house? ”
For some reason, Lin Xi felt that something must have happened, so he simply fell asleep in his clothes last night, stood up, and opened the door directly.
Standing at the door was Yun Yu in a cute pajamas, presumably something important had happened that made her not even change her clothes.
"What's wrong?" Lin Xi had a slight guess in his heart, which must be related to Zhao Lingzhi.
"Sister Lingzhi is gone, her clothes and suitcase are gone." Yun Yu's tone was extremely anxious, she was even worried that Zhao Lingzhi chose to leave because of her overnight stay and Lin Xi's temper, but after thinking about it, when Lin Xi and Zhao Lingzhi were separated last night, she heard it with her own ears, and there was no resentment, and after entering the house, she chatted with herself for a while before going to bed, and there was nothing unusual.
"When did I see it?"
"I don't know what to do, when I got up in the morning and was ready to go to work, I saw that Sister Lingzhi was gone, I originally thought that Sister Lingzhi was out of the road, but I found that the suitcase she had been placing at the door was missing. That's why I'm in a hurry to tell you. Lynsey, is it because of me? ”
"Don't think about it, it's none of your business." Lin Xi said quickly, he didn't have time to explain to Yun Yu now, the worry in his heart finally became a reality, Zhao Lingzhi's departure must have something to do with last night, who did she meet?
"! Shutdown! ”
Listening to the prompt sound in his ears, Lin Xi scolded angrily. said to Long Aotian, who had just come out of his clothes: "You guys look around here first, see if there is any of her, and I'll go to her hotel to have a look." ”
"Don't worry, second brother, leave this place to me, and I will ask a friend to ask if there are any records of my sister-in-law's entry and exit at the airport and train station later."
"Okay."
As Linsey ran through the crowded streets, the constant sound of the whistle in his ears made his mood even more irritable.
At the hotel, Zhao Lingzhi hadn't been there at all today, but where would she go? Who the hell did she meet last night?
Lynsey is caught in a great mystery.
Ding Ding!
The ringing of the phone made Linxi's whole person smart, and he forced himself to calm down and press the answer button.
On the phone, Long Aotian's tone was very low, which made Lin Xi's premonition even stronger.
Is she gone? …………
"Second brother, I found out, my sister-in-law went to the plane to New York this morning."
Lynsey fell silent on the other end of the line.
Long Aotian stopped talking on the other end of the phone, and finally continued: "Moreover, my sister-in-law didn't go alone. She was walking with a bald man, and I checked the surveillance footage of the airport, and their relationship seemed to be very close, with some talk and laughter along the way. I have also investigated the identity of the bald man, the CEO of an ordinary media company, and he is a typical nouveau riche. I guess ......"
"Okay, needless to say, I know what you want to say, I believe her."
"Second brother, if I hadn't seen the video, I wouldn't have said anything. But now that the evidence is in front of you, you ......"
"I know."
Lynsey hung up the phone softly, standing in the crowd of people coming and going, feeling the tension, stress and irritability that permeated the air.
A wry smile filled the corners of his mouth, and he couldn't figure out what he was feeling now, was it loss, sadness, or self-blame?
Even though he didn't believe Long Aotian's words, his mind kept repeating them.
At this moment he was confused......
Why did Zhao Lingzhi leave? His conviction is also gradually dissipating in his ignorance of feelings.
It wasn't until noon that Linsey returned home. For some reason, even Yuandun is there.
Looking at Lin Xi, who was expressionless, Yuan Dun'er wanted to say something, but was stopped by Long Aotian with a gesture.
Yun Yu couldn't bear to look away from the gaze locked on Lin Xi, and Yuan Dun'er also let out a long sigh.
Long Aotian blocked Lin Xi's steps to return to the house, and put a brand new mobile phone in his hand.
"Second brother, here is what she said to you."
"Yes." Lynsey replied softly.
When the three of them left, Lin Xi lay on the sofa and silently turned on her mobile phone, and the boot screen was an intimate photo of her and an old man face to face, although it was under the street lamp, the light was dim. But Lin Xi recognized it at a glance as Zhao Lingzhi.
On top of the entire interface, there was only one audio file, and when she clicked it open, Zhao Lingzhi's voice sounded, but her voice was very calm.
"Lindey, when you hear the recording, I should have been on the plane to the United States. I'm sorry for not saying goodbye to you and forgive me for my cowardice. To be honest, when we first met, I only saw you as an antidote to my lonely life, and then when I found out that I gradually liked you, I wanted to grow old with you, but as time went on, I found that we were not suitable. Maybe I'm like others say, I'm debauched by nature, although I'm very relieved to be with you, but I don't have the passion I want, so I re-chose an old man who makes me passionate, he has a wife, and even he is very rough, completely without your patience and love for me, but I like him, this is my nature. Honestly, a woman like me doesn't deserve you. So I chose to leave, maybe one day in the future we will meet, but at that time, we are just the most familiar strangers. What I owe you can only be repaid in the next life. See you again, I hope you find a better lover. ”
In just a few minutes, it was a very straightforward farewell, but it made Lin Xi's heart twist.
Is this what it's like to be out of love? Lynsey remembered it thoroughly this time, and perhaps he would never forget it for the rest of his life.
I don't know when, Long Aotian sat down next to Lin Xi gently, sighed lightly and said, "Second brother, I know that you feel uncomfortable. But if you hold it like this, you will get sick. It's better to vent. ”
Originally, Long Aotian didn't expect Lin Xi to answer, but unexpectedly, Lin Xi's originally somewhat collapsed body suddenly, stood up silently, and said lightly: "I don't have anything to vent. You clean up here, I'll go find Yunyu, and today we'll move. ”
"Moving? Right now? Long Aotian was stunned for a moment and asked with some surprise.
"How long do you want to delay?" Lin Xi replied casually, and when he was about to go out, he suddenly turned around and threw the phone to Long Aotian, and said lightly: "Throw it." ”
Until Lin Xi disappeared from view, Long Aotian looked at his phone with some confusion and muttered, "It's okay so soon?" Shouldn't it......... I think when I fell in love for the first time, I was sad for a whole day. ”
Ding Ding!
"Hey, Long Shao, what you asked me to do has been done. I've said hello to all the client companies that I have worked with that media company. They will all cancel the order, and within a month, the company will go out of business because of a loss. ”
"Yes, okay."
"Do you have any other orders?"
"No, I'll call you when I need to."
"Okay."
Hung up the phone, a touch of coldness flashed in Long Aotian's eyes, and the mobile phone in his hand, which was originally waiting to be destroyed, was completely turned into residue with a crisp sound, and even the slightest trace of current could be seen circulating above the broken wire.
Knock knock knock!
When Lynsey knocked on the door across the street, the door opened almost instantly.
"Lynsey? You? ”
"Got time? I want to talk to you. ”
