For unknown reasons, Sogou suddenly couldn't search for this site today, please keep in mind the domain name of this site (Shuhai Pavilion full spelling) to find your way home!
The farce of Shangshan Restaurant came to an end, and the exhausted Shang Ting returned to the house without resting, even if she could politely refuse the proposal to go out with Sang Jiarou tomorrow, she couldn't sleep peacefully at this time, because she had to wait for Lin Wenhai to come back.
The time was almost over, Xiliang stepped forward and put a coat on her shoulder, quietly exited the bedroom, she looked at the flickering lights in the yard, and suddenly gave birth to a sadness, is there anyone in this world who can let her rely on?
She is the eldest lady of the merchant, but this identity does not bring her protection. This vein of the merchant lineage has withered since the early death of her biological mother, the stepmother has a black heart, and there are a lot of inextricably linked with her below, and countless younger brothers and sisters are waiting for her to have an accident, she has long understood that her father is in charge of the fate of the entire family, and he has no time to take care of her, and she has long learned and is used to reining in the edge, but she has done the merchant lady who has the means, but she can't control the fate that has long been derailed.
Xiliang replied softly outside the door, "Madam, President Lin is here." ”
"Let him in." got up from the chaise longue, the coat fell to the ground along Shang Ting's somewhat tired body, and before she could stand up straight, Lin Wenhai had already walked in, bent down to pick up the coat on the ground, and put it on the low stool on the side. "Why are you still here at such a late hour?" Shang Ting looked up at him, as if looking up at a god in the sky.
Lin Wenhai was a little unhappy by this meaningful question, she was obviously waiting for him, and asked him why he came, could it be that he was wrong before, he thought that Shang Ting was a very cheerful woman, or, he never understood her. "Your kindness is too vague, Xiaobai won't understand."
"I... You went to her? Shang Ting didn't know what Lin Wenhai meant, and still pretended not to know anything.
Lin Wenhai sneered, and suddenly didn't know what to say, and only said after a while: "The young master of Xia Shangguan came to her regardless of her identity, but she still refused to confess to me, you say, why is this?" ”
"Everyone in the world knows that the person who serves the Changyu family wholeheartedly is the eighth son of the emperor, we are just ordinary people, and it is understandable that she doesn't want you to be contaminated with the competition for the throne of God."
"What are we? What is the Lin family? If I was like Mrs. Shang, there was a big businessman behind me, and I could be qualified to get the emperor's blue eyes, and I could still lose my temper at her, but now... I can't even find a single reason. ”
Shang Ting took a deep breath and felt worried, "Are you complaining about me?" That's right, since I decided to break away from the Wang family, it seems that you have always been wronged and looked at the eyes of others. But you believe me, everything I do is for your good, even if you miss an opportunity, it's nothing, anyway, there are so many opportunities, isn't it coming now? ”
"Forget it." Lin Wenhai's heart stopped at this moment, he didn't want to ask anything more, anyway, these ridiculous questions could only get ridiculous answers.
Shang Ting carefully tugged at the corner of Lin Wenhai's clothes, she was a little afraid of what Lin Wenhai was going to say next, and now it was impossible for her to let go, "You know, I like you, maybe you will still think it is incredible, but you won't understand how important your care for me is." When I was in a panic, it was you who comforted me, it was you who gave me a place to live, it was you who made me understand that there are still many things worth remembering in this world, Wenhai, let me accompany you, let me help you create a career, be able to stand on this world, be worthy of your heart, worthy of heaven and earth, and worthy of the ancestors of the Lin family. ”
"Do you really think that the fifth son of the emperor is destined by heaven?" Lin Wenhai didn't move, but he was cold, and Shang Ting, who was cold, couldn't help but tremble. "Everything you and I do now is just for ourselves."
"What did Xiaobai tell you?"
"What do you want her to say to me?"
Shang Ting was scared in her heart, and grabbed Lin Wenhai's arm with both hands, her pitiful appearance was really pitiful, she lowered her head and said: "I just want her to avoid you, even if she doesn't admit that she knows the eighth son of the emperor, Fengmi, but your current situation is different, as long as someone is a little more attentive, she will cause you trouble!" Wenhai, do you know how hard it was for me to get this opportunity? This is God's favor for me, it is God who is repaying the suffering I have suffered over the years, I even thought that if Lord Miao refused to give me a chance, I would have exhausted all means, and I would also let him mention your and my names in His Fifth Highness, I really want you to get your wish, you are the son of the Lin family, and I have the responsibility to make you famous... ”
"What did you say?" Lin Wenhai's body suddenly stiffened, "You knew early on that Miao Lingu was the fifth son of the emperor?" ”
Shang Ting was stunned and didn't answer, but her uneasy eyes were already the best answer.
"How can I ask you to entrust your net worth to me, you can go back to Shangzhen! It's your home, your father helped you calm down all the changes, you can rely on him, now that you have your own son, you can live for him for the rest of your life, they need you more than me, Mrs. Shang, there are so many things that need you to do, why should I, an irrelevant person, become your responsibility? Lin Wenhai clenched his fists, he wanted to punch himself twice, it turned out that whether it was the position of the president or the opportunity in Salo Port, it was the charity of the woman in front of him.
Right! It's charity, where does the responsibility come from between them?
"I can't do it alone! Whether it's a businessman, or the future of Changxin, I can't do it alone, Wenhai, I confess, I'm selfish, I don't believe in others, I only believe in you, but if I don't use these fame and fortune to bind you, you won't agree to stay with me, you think I have everything, but you went to my father today, you have seen those false things with your own eyes, you should understand, I have nothing, every brick, every tile, even every grass on the ground, does not belong to me. ”
"The businessman is full of talents, and the businessman is heartfelt to you, and your words are really chilling." The merchant may be full of open and secret battles and intrigues, but the head of the merchant is full of indulgence to the only concubine, but he didn't expect that Shang Ting has already practiced a hard heart, and he can't realize those good things at all. Lin Wenhai suddenly thought of the relationship between Xiaobai and the Lin family, and said that the bystanders were clear, no matter what the Lin family's attitude towards Xiaobai was, at least Xiaobai had always been grateful.
Shang Ting's eyebrows were indescribably bitter and angry, and she pulled Lin Wenhai hard, hoping that he could empathize, "What do you know, do you know why I married the Wang family in the first place?" Do you know why I refuse to take my husband's last name? As long as I want to make trouble, the merchants will definitely satisfy me, that's what they owe me, but I don't want to make trouble, I want my husband and children to be able to step into the door of the business town in a beautiful way, but I can't do it alone, I need you. Don't blame me for finding a high-sounding reason to tie you and me together, how many people in this world are not blind? It's all fake and hypocritical, and you can't understand how scared I am. ”
Lin Wenhai resolutely shook off Shang Ting's hands and said coldly: "You... Forever... Forever... Never go to Xiaobai again... No... Don't even mention her name again... ”
Tears suddenly burst down, and Shang Ting was about to collapse, "I know that everyone Xiaobai knows is more helpful to you than me, and what can I do to keep you by my side?" I didn't, I went to beg Xiaobai, I was in a difficult situation at the moment, and finally had a chance, except for you, I had no possibility of finding someone who could make me feel at ease, I could only ask her... ”
"It's better for you to beg her to help you than to be a stranger! Have you forgotten? She is gracious to you! Shang Ting, I don't know about merchants, but your heart is too cold... ”
"Wenhai... Shang Ting's face turned pale, what does this mean?
Lin Wenhai cleared the thousands of emotions in his mind, and said flatly: "The merchant owner asked me to tell you, no matter what you do in Shaluo Port, he will give you full support, so that you have no worries, and also agreed to my request, the Chamber of Commerce will do half of the work, do half of the effort, and divide half of the silver, and in the future, this port will not be you and me, but the merchant and the Huixian Chamber of Commerce." ”
"You want to cut it half?"
Lin Wenhai looked at Shang Ting's incredulous, still a little confused, and even with a little doubt and anger in his eyes, he sneered: "You don't want to? You are going to pull me in for this matter, and after all, I am the president of the Hui County Chamber of Commerce, not a subordinate of your business. ”
Of course not, Shang Ting originally had this plan, Lin Wenhai was about to be her husband, let alone half of it, give him everything, she had no complaints, but for some reason, Shang Ting felt strange in her heart, Lin Wenhai at this moment, it seemed that she had become a person from two worlds with her in an instant, she was not happy at all for her father to think about her, and there was not even a trace of Lin Wenhai for the rest of her life, she was happy to get what she wanted, she felt so lonely, even more afraid and uneasy than before the two of them complained to each other.
"I shouldn't have told you this, Wenhai, I know... What we think in our hearts ... It's all the same ... ”
"Since then, the past has been written off... You and I ... ”
Shang Ting's heart was beating like a drum, she hurriedly grabbed Lin Wenhai's arm, almost pleading, "You want to write it off with me?" No... I don't say yes... ”
The cold moonlight sprinkled on the two of them through the window lattice, and Lin Wenhai's face was cold and cold, and there was no trace of emotion. Shang Ting didn't want to care about what he had planned and what he said, and now he understands that people don't kill for themselves, where are there any kind-hearted people and affectionate people in this world.
He took Shang Ting's hand, slowly, pushed away from his arm, and said word by word: "Tomorrow I will go to Shaluo Port, if Mrs. Shang also wants to go with her, take Changxin with her." ”
What does that mean? Shang Ting pinched her own tiger mouth, only pain could make her stop thinking nonsense.
