Chapter 84: Self-Knowledge
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Li Zi'an scolded.
He half-hugged her in his arms, a little reassuring, he didn't expect Shangguan Wanbai to come to him after last night, surprise, and panic.
It's no wonder that Shangguan Wanbai thinks about it, after all, this is Li Zi'an's private lounge, and the word "private" should mean that no one else should enter except her and himself.
And...... The figure of this woman is somewhat familiar.
Xiang Shiqing saw that the cold man took such care of Shangguan Wanbai, gritted her teeth slightly, took a deep breath and walked up, picking up the food box on the ground.
greeted with a smile: "...... Sister-in-law, it's been a long time, don't get me wrong, it was an accident just now. ”
Shangguan Wanbai frowned, a little familiar with the woman in front of him, and couldn't remember who it was for a while.
Li Zi'an let go of her and introduced, "Xiang Shiqing, you've seen it before." He said it in a vague way, and he didn't mention anything about their student days.
Shangguan Wanbai remembered that she was the sister who always liked to run behind Li Zi'an when she was in school.
At that time, Xiang Shiqing always wore double ponytails and had tiger teeth when she laughed, and many boys chased her, but she only liked to play with Li Zi'an. Li Zi'an said that they are childhood sweethearts.
Shangguan Wanbai was also jealous of this, because from a girl's point of view, Xiang Shiqing's thoughts were not very simple.
But later, she went abroad, and Shangguan Wanbai didn't think much about it.
Now it's ...... Did you return home?
Was it also her that Shangguan Wanbai saw yesterday?
Seeing that she didn't respond, Xiang Shiqing was a little embarrassed for a while, and asked with a food box: "Sister-in-law is here to bring food to Brother Zi'an, the relationship is really good." ”
Good feelings...... A big quarrel for three days can also be called a good relationship......
Li Zi'an withdrew his hand from Shangguan Wanbai's body, put his hands in his pockets, and was dissatisfied with her silence.
"I've eaten it."
Xiang Shiqing innocently glanced at Li Zi'an, how could she dismantle her sister-in-law's platform like this.
Shangguan Wanbai also took back something from Xiang Shiqing's hand with interest, and said angrily: "No, I brought Yin Xi to eat." ”
After speaking, he walked towards Yin Xi's side.
Yin Xi's face was bitter, and he couldn't wait to run away, madam, I can't bear it......
Li Zi'an's eyebrows jumped, he grabbed the woman's collar, pulled it back into his arms like a chicken, and squeezed out two words between his teeth: "You dare?" ”
Shangguan Wanbai was still angry and didn't want to pay attention to him, "You haven't eaten it, don't waste it." ”
Li Zi'an, who has never been soft in business, was caught by her. easily snatched the things from her hand, "You care so much about me, I can eat it." ”
It looks like-for-tat, but it's actually still a lot of affection.
It is usually difficult to see such a childish side of Li Zi'an, and Yin Xi saw his aunt smile all over his face.
Xiang Shiqing is, she wants to laugh but can't laugh, how ugly and ugly it is to freeze on her face.
When the two of them are together, they seem to have entered a no-man's land, and only the other party can understand the tacit understanding.
"Millet porridge? You boiled it with your own hands, and finally washed your hands and made soup for me. Li Zi'an touched the bottom of the warm box and looked at Shangguan Wanbai with gentle eyes that he hadn't even noticed.
"What, I've cooked for you many times, and I don't know who it is, and I have to bother Vivien to act for you." This is the last time he clumsily coaxed her to be happy.
When he said it at this time, he didn't feel angry, Li Zi'an tasted it, the taste was delicate and delicious, "You will be fine with this kind of thing." ”
It's hard to believe that this man, who was cruel to Jian Maoxun not long ago, would speak in a coquettish tone at this time.
Shangguan Wanbai was a little embarrassed, and walked to the side of Xiang Shiqing, who was standing still, "I'm sorry, I was too sensitive just now, I haven't seen you for a long time, Shiqing." ”
Xiang Shiqing bent the corners of her mouth, "My sister-in-law is really comprehensive, and she deserves to be the rumored Mrs. Li." ”
The three words "rumored" are very intriguing.
Shangguan Wanbai is wearing too small a costume today, and she has fallen behind Xiang Shiqing's maturity, but the fierceness in her eyes is still there, "I don't know which rumor Shiqing listened to." ”
Xiang Shiqing looked innocent and did not answer.
Li Zi'an was already frowning, he didn't like to hear Shangguan Wanbai's yin and yang strange words, "It's just right, eating together at noon can be regarded as picking up the wind and washing the dust for Shiqing." ”
And in Shangguan Wanbai's heart, he has automatically transformed this into a short-term protection.
Childhood...... Can you kiss too?
Xiang Shiqing's expression management regrouped, "Okay, it's just with Brother Zi'an...... Oh, and my sister-in-law reminisced together. ”
Yin Xi arranged a table in the garden restaurant and ordered the best dishes, and everyone's tastes were taken care of.
Shangguan Wanbai walked beside Li Zi'an, and Xiang Shiqing was not next to her, but on the other side of Li Zi'an, so that at a glance, others couldn't even tell who his girlfriend was.
When she sat down, Xiang Shiqing took the lead in pouring a glass of wine and toasting Shangguan Wanbai, "Sister-in-law, thank you for taking care of Brother Zi'an all these years, you have worked hard." ”
There are multiple meanings in this sentence, but Xiang Shiqing smiled brightly, and she couldn't see her scheming at all.
Over the years...... Shangguan Wanbai only came back recently, how can he be called to take care of Li Zi'an...... And the parties have been full of resentment over the years, and they can't be mentioned.
It's against your will.
Shangguan Wanbai's face was embarrassed, "Thank you for what I did." ”
Xiang Shiqing shrugged, "Isn't it, I heard that Brother Zi'an and you have been in love until they got married, isn't that so?" ”
Not at all.
"Shiqing, let's see what you want to eat." Li Zi'an frowned and interrupted, unwilling to listen again, "I'll go to the bathroom." ”
Leaving Shangguan Wanbai alone with this harmless sister.
Shangguan Wanbai didn't know how to deal with herself for a while, and handed the menu to Xiang Shiqing, "You're welcome, since you are Zi'an's sister, according to the rules of Z City, after your sister-in-law enters the door, she wants to give you a meeting gift." It's too sudden today, I didn't have time to prepare, after dinner, let's go shopping together, okay? ”
She asked herself if she was polite enough and thoughtful. and reminded her, intentionally or unintentionally, that she was only Li Zi'an's sister at best.
Xiang Shiqing seemed to turn a deaf ear, took a few sips of wine, and said slowly: "No need, Brother Zi'an has already bought it for me." ”
The words were full of pride, and showing off Li Zi'an's kindness to her.
Xiang Shiqing tilted her head, and the diamonds on the earrings shone brightly, "I grew up with Brother Zi'an, I was still young before, and then I left the country, so you have the opportunity to take advantage of it, but now I'm back......"
It's almost a declaration of war. No matter how stupid Shangguan Wanbai is, the sensitivity of a woman can also guess what she means. It turned out to be another peach blossom.
She put down the menu slowly, "Don't say that you were still young at the beginning, even now, you may not be able to win against me, I can become Mrs. Li, what about you?" ”
"The bitterness in these words can only be understood by my sister-in-law herself, right?" Xiang Shiqing laughed openly, "We'll see." ”
Treating Gu Jiao or Xue Ying, Shangguan Wanbai has the confidence to deal a heavy blow to their incompetence and delusion, but not to Xiang Shiqing.
Xiang Shiqing's confidence is even more than her. They grew up since they were children and knew each other's life trajectories, and the time of those years was longer than that of Shangguan Wanbai and Li Zi'an......
Shangguan Wanbai asked herself, in Li Zi's heart, she didn't feel that she was more important than Xiang Shiqing.
When Li Zi'an came back, what he saw was Shangguan Wanbai's sullen appearance, twisting his eyebrows, "What?" ”
Xiang Shiqing shook her head lightly, "I don't know, my sister-in-law doesn't seem to be very comfortable." ”
Li Zi'an stretched out his hand to probe Shangguan Wanbai's forehead, and there was no fever. Shangguan Wanbai smiled a little reluctantly: "I'm fine, I have a headache, can you send me home." ”
Her face was indeed pale, and she blinked, and her eyelashes seemed to flutter.
Li Zi'an frowned, and immediately called Yin Xi: "Send my wife to the hospital." At the end, he bent down slightly, "I have some cooperation with Shiqing that I haven't finished talking about, and I'll go see you after the discussion." Soon. ”
Shangguan Wanbai can take the initiative to come to him, knowing her sullen temper, of course Li Zi'an will not be embarrassed by last night's incident, and now that she is not feeling well, she is naturally nervous.
Yin Xi came in, and Li Zi'an solemnly explained: "Go to the hospital under the Li family and find the best doctor." ”
Yin Xi nodded, "Madam, let's go." ”
But in Shangguan Wanbai's heart, she can't compare to cooperation, can't compare to ...... Xiang Shiqing.
Subconsciously looked at Xiang Shiqing, her face was expected.
In some small things, Li Zi'an has always had a clear distinction between public and private, Shangguan Wanbai actually thought that he could let him go with her in this way? I think too much of myself.
Shangguan Wanbai's expression shattered, and he made a final struggle: "I want you to send me." ”
Li Zi'an's heart softened, and he pulled out his hand to pick her up, Xiang Shiqing said: "Otherwise, I'll accompany my sister-in-law to the hospital, Brother Zi'an still has a lot of work to deal with." ”
As she spoke, she stepped on her high heels and walked to Shangguan Wanbai's side, very gentle.
Affectionate, polite and courteous. On the surface, it won't be offensive, right?
Li Zi'an apologized: "Originally, I came to pick you up and wash the dust, next time, next time, next time, as for the cooperation between the two families, I have seen the plan, I asked Yin Xi to arrange a time, and then discuss it." ”
Xiang Shiqing nodded clearly, "Okay, sister-in-law's body is important, you can go quickly." ”
Li Zi'an was satisfied with Xiang Shiqing's understanding, bent down and picked up Shangguan Wanbai and walked out, attracting the attention of many people on the left and right.
Shangguan Wanbai nested in Li Zi'an's arms obediently, his mind was in chaos, did he know Xiang Shiqing's intentions......
Li Zi'an instructed Yin Xi to drive faster, "It's uncomfortable, I'll be there soon." ”
On the top of his head was his jaw as perfect as a knife, and Shangguan Wanbai said wistfully, "I seem to have delayed your work." ”
Li Zi'an suddenly laughed and scratched her neck: "It's rare, you will apologize." ”
Why did she say so unreasonable.
Shangguan Wanbai turned over in his arms and said seriously: "Shiqing, isn't it?"
