Chapter 138: The Truth Behind Happiness
Lin Qinglin took advantage of the weekend rest and Qin Shiyi also came to Lu Li's riverview villa.
"It's a housewarming, we brought a nice bottle of red wine." Qin Shiyi handed the red wine to the servant and smiled teasingly.
This guy is honest and honest, and he refused to admit how much he liked Ning Ning at first, but now he likes it so much that he lives separately from Lu's mother for her.
"But don't move too often, this bottle of wine is not cheap." Lin Qinglin also quipped.
The river view villa is completely different from Fairview City, and she likes the garden in front of the villa very much.
"It's okay, what he has is money."
May days are especially suitable for barbecues, four people gather in the garden to do their own things, and the two men also change into their usual elite clothes and suits, and look a little younger in casual clothes.
"Seeing you move out, I'm in a much better mood, and I'm very happy." Lin Qinglin could feel Ning Ning's anxiety some time ago, but she had no relevant experience, and she really couldn't give better advice.
"Yes, I'm also very grateful to Ah Li, he can do this for me." I have always secretly complained in my heart that Lu Li helped Lu's mother indiscriminately.
But she has been wronged so many times, as long as he helps her the most important time, Ning Ning will be very satisfied.
"That's great!"
"Then how are you and Qin Shiyi?"
The two women who were preparing the dishes looked at the man who was living on the other end, and Lin Qinglin smiled a little sourly.
Love is easy to confuse one's eyes, and at the beginning, with enthusiasm, I feel that I can do anything, but I will gradually be poured wave after wave of cold water by various restrictions.
"Except that you can't walk side by side, you can't eat out and watch movies together, and you have to endure him showing affection with Tang Xueqiao in front of others from time to time, everything else is fine." Counting a series of small clips that happened recently, on my fingers, it was an understatement, but the process was ...... Just know the warmth and coldness.
"It sucks." Ning Ning made an unceremonious evaluation.
"Forget it, after all, I chose it myself, ah......"
"What's wrong?" The man who was obviously lighting a fire at the other end of the garden heard Lin Qinglin's whispered shout and immediately came to her, looking at her fingers that were poked by the stick when she skewered meat.
"It's okay, I'm shocked." A drop of blood on her finger was not serious, but Qin Shiyi looked at her helplessly.
"Stop tossing and wash your hands."
"But meat!"
"It's enough for the four of us."
In the next second, Qin Shiyi took Lin Qinglin to the bathroom to wash his hands.
"You're too exaggerated, it's nothing, don't let Ning Ning laugh at them." I am glad that he takes good care of himself.
"Do you like it here?"
"Huh?" The topic jumped so fast that she couldn't keep up for a while.
"I said, you like the villa with a river view, right?" She had already sighed on the way here, but she didn't expect a little lawyer to be so rich.
What Lin Qinglin didn't know was that most of Lu Li's income did not come from lawyers, but from the companies they invested in, but it was Lu Li's professional relationship and his usual low-key personality that made everyone underestimate his wealth index.
"I like it, but it's too expensive here." A house from 500 million yuan is expensive, and there is no reason for her to be expensive, otherwise she would also consider buying a villa here.
Qin Shiyi smiled, in fact, he also has a villa in Jiangjing, but he really doesn't need to live so big and idle, if she likes it, he decided to use Jiangjing as their wedding room in the future.
"Let's go out, everything should be almost baked."
Just when the four of them were eating, drinking, talking and laughing, Qin Shiyi suddenly received a call from Tang Xueqiao.
"Shi Yi!"
"What's wrong?"
Lin Qinglin was originally standing beside Qin Shiyi, and after Tang Xueqiao's voice came from the moment he picked up the phone, she deliberately moved to the side.
She couldn't stand Tang Xueqiao's coquettish voice at Qin Shiyi.
No matter how much she convinces herself, she is just an ordinary woman, she will be jealous, she loves to be jealous, and she can't tolerate a grain of sand in her eyes.
It's just that she can't say all these things.
"I forgot to bring my wallet when I went out today, and now I can't pay for a lot of things."
"Can't you pay with your phone?"
"Please, it's only been a long time since I returned to Shenyang, and the mobile payment function in the United States is not so good." So she didn't even open Alipay.
Lin Qinglin deliberately didn't look at him, pretended to be busy chatting with Ning Ning, and ignored him.
Qin Shiyi was very embarrassed, he didn't want to go, now Tang Xueqiao was more and more able to pester him, except for a little time in Splendid City every day, he couldn't even accompany Lin Qinglin well.
Coming to Jiangjing today is something she has been looking forward to for a long time.
It's not that she's interested in other people's housewarming, but that she hasn't been able to stand in the sun with Qin Shiyi for a long time.
"Shiyi, please pull ...... I'm also your fiancée, alas, I didn't even have someone to pay for my wallet, so where do I put my face. ”
"Where are you now?"
"I'm in Jiuguang, you come quickly."
It's just that it takes 40 minutes to drive from Jiangjing to Jiuguang, and it takes more than an hour to go back and forth, isn't it ironic that he is in such a hurry just to swipe the card for another woman?
The words behind "Qinglin ......" are really difficult to speak.
"It's okay, I know, you go!" Pulling out an ugly smile, she tried to make herself look better.
"I promise I'll be back as soon as possible." hugged her tightly, then left a kiss on her lips and left.
Lin Qinglin lowered his head and still roasted the meat, looking very calm, but too calm.
"It's okay, he said he'll be back soon." This look, even Lu Li felt unbearable to look at.
"He's not coming, he's not coming." Why is the answer so affirmative? Because the plot is about the same, it's going to be staged at both ends in three days.
said that he would come back to watch a movie with her, but when she fell asleep watching it in the video room, he still didn't come back;
said that he would accompany her to eat, her table of dishes was hot and cold, hot and cold, and she had no appetite after going back and forth several times, and he and Tang Xueqiao came back after eating a good meal.
You have to pretend to be generous and understanding on your face, it's okay! But how can it be okay?
deserved it, she chose the most difficult road, and she had to go to the end in the dark.
"Qinglin......" Ning Ning was also very sad, how could she be fine, but she was sad and couldn't tell everywhere who made her unable to see the light.
"Let's not wait for him, hurry up and eat, he won't be here to eat a little more."
"Well, wait for him to come over and let him wash the dishes!"
And sure enough, 40 minutes later, he received a text message from Qin Shiyi, and he couldn't catch up, so he could only ask Lu Li to send her back.
"Okay, I had a great time today, I should go too." Enough chatting, eating enough, and seeing my friends happy and relieved.
"So early? Do you want to stay a little longer? Ning Ning didn't worry, she would go back alone now.
"No, I don't want to be your light bulb." After all, other people's happiness belongs to others and has nothing to do with themselves.
"I'll send you." Lu Li picked up the car keys, and he promised Qin Shiyi to send her back.
"Not anymore." Lin Qinglin refused with a smile, she just wanted to be alone now.
"Qinglin, Shi Yi doesn't worry about you."
"Please, it's not too late, he likes to worry about it, thank you really don't have to."
Probably everyone can see how reluctant Lin Qinglin is now, and he may cry uncontrollably in front of them in the next second.
Lu Li couldn't bear to say anything more about sending her, respecting her decision to want someone.
Lin Qinglin took a car, and when the driver asked her where she wanted to go, she couldn't say that she wanted to go back to Splendid City.
"Please send me to Kumitsu." It's not that he wants to meet them by chance, he just wants to see the scene he watched with Tang Xueqiao in the afternoon.
Maybe you will be in pain enough that you won't have to continue to embarrass yourself.
Jiuguang on the weekend was still lively, but the excitement around her couldn't warm her heart, she looked at this with a smile, imagining how Tang Xueqiao would hold Qin Shiyi intimately and walk here in the afternoon.
Passing by a newly opened dessert shop, it was the last time she saw it on the Internet and said to Qin Shiyi that she wanted to try it when it opened.
It seems that there will be no chance in the short term, and the more times like this, the more lonely it becomes.
I don't know if she is still interested in the desserts in this store when she can come one day.
There are things she wants to eat, movies she wants to watch, places she wants to go, and performances she wants to see, and she has no one to talk to except to record it with her mobile phone.
And Qin Shiyi? She told him so many of her wishes, knowing that he could not help her fulfill them, and that it had no other meaning than to increase his burden.
So what is the purpose of insisting on this love? Does Qin Shiyi outline a distant future for her?
But no matter how beautiful the future is, it is not as reassuring as the present.
"Qinglin?"
Hearing someone whispering her name, it was Yin Yinuo.
"We seem to be very close." I didn't make an appointment once, but I met three times.
"yes, I think so too, is it another person today?"
Both of them are very strange, obviously they have a man they love by their side, but buying diamond rings, gyms, and shopping, it seems that every fragment of life is only themselves.
"Well, I don't have anything to do today, so I just want to go out and hang out." In fact, she broke one of Jiang Qiyan's pens, and she wanted to buy another one to pay him back.
However, I heard that the broken one was a gift from Lin Qinglin when he graduated that year, and it is estimated that he will not be able to look at it no matter how expensive it is.
"What a coincidence, do you want to be together?"
"Okay, let's do it together."
The two frustrated women, holding hands, deliberately did not mention the things that made them sad, and walked happily.
The more Lin Qinglin came into contact with Yin Yinuo, the more he liked her indifferent personality, but he was very worried that her temperament was not a competition compared to Jiang Qiyan's rank.
"Is Qiyan good to you?"
"He'......"
