Xu Xiaxi barely suffered too much loss in Fu Lichen, so that when she suddenly spoke sharply, Fu Lichen remembered that Xu Xiaxi was still a member of the school debate team back then.

Fu Lichen pursed his lips lightly, a little overwhelmed.

It's not that he can't find the words to refute Xu Xiaxi - in fact, he has hundreds of excuses to keep Xu Xiaxi, and he has done it in the past - what he can't resist is Xu Xiaxi's cold attitude.

That kind of indifference made his heart cold.

The relationship between the two has always been that he is relatively strong, and even the original love confession was strongly announced by him that the two were together, and Xu Xiaxi did not refute it.

So in a way, he is still a love idiot, and once Xu Xiaxi shows a tough refusal, the invincible Lawyer Fu is helpless.

looked at Xu Xiaxi speechless.

Xu Xiaxi rarely saw Fu Lichen's sluggish appearance, and the ruthless voice that reached his mouth finally failed to come out.

I remembered the conversation between Ms. Xiao and her yesterday -

Ms. Xiao had already known that Xu Xiaxi was coming to Beijing, but she was still surprised by Xu Xiaxi's sudden appearance.

After listening to Xu Xiaxi's vague words, Ms. Xiao pointed out sharply: "So, after seeing the ambiguous scene between Fu Lichen and others, you became a deserter again?" ”

Xu Xiaxi didn't know whether she was stung by Ms. Xiao's straightforwardness or the word 'deserter', and subconsciously retorted, "I didn't, I just didn't want to live there anymore." ”

Ms. Xiao was silent, turned sideways and let Xu Xiaxi into the house, followed Xu Xiaxi into the bedroom, and saw her keep packing up her things, but without looking at her, she knew that this child had a weak heart.

Ms. Xiao sighed helplessly, sat down on the sofa, stared at Xu Xiaxi, and suddenly said, "Do you know? Four years ago, when you asked to study in Italy, you said the same thing. ”

Xu Xiaxi's movements froze, and then she cleaned up her things faster, but it is estimated that even she herself didn't know what she had packed.

Ms. Xiao added lightly: "When I asked you why, you were like now, and you didn't dare to look at me if you moved indiscriminately." Xia Xi, four years ago, you were still young, I didn't ask any questions, and I got your heart; Do you want to run away from it again? ”

This faint question made Xu Xiaxi's whole body freeze.

After about half a minute, Xu Xiaxi put down the clothes in his hand dejectedly, turned around and sat down on the bed, looked at his mother, and said curtly: "You, did you guess a long time ago?" ”

Ms. Xiao smiled helplessly, "You are my child, even if you are away from me to study for so long, your mind is still too easy to guess." It's just that I didn't know you had such a boyfriend at the time, and even if I knew what you were running away from, I was up to you. ”

Xu Xiaxi, knowing that his mother wholeheartedly wanted to study medicine by herself, turned out that she had to choose a major that had nothing to do with medicine in college, and later studied cognitive psychology when she went abroad, but that was also to avoid Fu Lichen.

She thought she was hiding it well, but she barely couldn't hide her thoughts in Ms. Xiao.

At this time, she also really understood, although Ms. Xiao looked strict, but she was really good to her, silent connivance, considerate silence, but it was a pity......

"I'm sorry I let you down!" Xu Xiaxi apologized sullenly.

Ms. Xiao shook her head and said earnestly: "Xia Xi, it doesn't matter if I'm disappointed or not, the important thing is you!"

Four years ago, you escaped once, you escaped for three years, and the result? You didn't run away, but as soon as you returned to China, you fell into the arms of others. ”

Xu Xiaxi couldn't help but retort when he heard this: "No, I'm not with him this time!" ”

What does it mean to 'fall into the arms of others', and their relationship is very innocent, okay?!

"Since you are not with him, who is he with, and what does it have to do with you?" Ms. Xiao asked casually.

Xu Xiaxi: "......"

Ms. Xiao is really eloquent! A few words left her speechless.

Xu Xiaxi pursed his lips and said nothing, lowering his head, and he was the kind of passive resistance.

Ms. Xiao looked at her daughter's hairy head and sighed helplessly again, "You see you're here again, every time you face something you can't solve, it's like this passive resistance, and you can't solve the problem." ”

In just a few days, Xu Xiaxi has been dissed as an ostrich for the second time, and she can't help but be a little angry, "I didn't resist passively, I just, I just didn't want to stay there!"

lest it hinder their good deeds! ”

The last sentence she only muttered in her mouth, her voice was small, but it had a strong sourness.

Ms. Xiao couldn't help but roll her eyes and poke at her coldly, "Then what are you not running away like this?" ”

Xu Xiaxi was speechless.

I heard Ms. Xiao change her solemn face and say to her: "Xu Xiaxi, I won't say anything about you if you are a deserter in other things, because that is not a solution to the problem." But in love, escaping will never solve the problem, it will only make the problem accumulate deeper and deeper, and it will also make people fall into the mud.

You've already escaped once, don't you understand the truth? ”

In fact, Xu Xiaxi can't even do a deserter at all.

People fled to Italy, a heart is still tied to Fu Lichen, and I feel that such thoughts are too shameful, she is pressed to the bottom of her heart on weekdays, and only dares to quietly turn out the figure in her heart in the dead of night, let her thoughts sweep over her, and accompany herself through the difficult time of studying abroad for three years.

Xu Xiaxi felt ashamed of such a shameful behavior, and he didn't dare to tell anyone at all.

No matter how much she disliked Fu Lichen, her heart hidden deep in her chest would still be excited because of that man.

Escape = Failure.

She'd tried this formula, but it didn't work.

Xu Xiaxi licked her dry lips and asked in a dumb voice, "Then what should I do?" ”

She thought about telling Fu Lichen her mind clearly and conclusively, but when she saw Fu Lichen and Qin Yaoyao's intimate actions, she only felt that she was a joke, and she could say anything.

Ms. Xiao looked at Xu Xiaxi and said, "It depends on what you think!" If you still like him and want to be with him, then work hard, as my Xiao Ying's woman, you can't even grab a man, you are too useless! ”

Xu Xiaxi opened his mouth, unable to make any evaluation of Ms. Xiao's heroism.

She bit her lower lip and asked softly, "Then what if you don't want to be together?" ”

The voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.

Ms. Xiao still heard it, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, but she still said quietly on her face: "If you don't like it, then you have to face it calmly." Tell Fu Lichen that the public is to the public and the private is to be private, and to make it clear to him, cut off the ambiguity, and cut off the love thread.

Don't forget, Fu Lichen is still your boss and colleague, unless you don't want this job anymore, where can you run away? ”

…………

Xu Xiaxi was awakened by Ms. Xiao's words, although she was still confused, she had the courage to confront Fu Lichen, and there was today's meeting.

was not found by Fu Lichen, but she took the initiative to find Fu Lichen.

Xu Xiaxi retracted his distant thoughts, looked around, looked at Cheng Yu and Lin Wenyu on the side, and said politely: "I have something I want to talk to Lawyer Fu alone, can I ask you to recuse yourself?" ”

Although Xu Xiaxi was very polite in dealing with them a few times before, it was the first time for Cheng Yu to hear Xu Xiaxi's polite and polite voice, as if mixed with alienation, and they were separated from each other.

Cheng Yu had bad thoughts in his heart, but there was no room for him to interject here, so he could only pull Lin Wenyu to exit first.

Before leaving, he gave Fu Lichen a look of self-begging.

Of course, Fu Lichen ignored him, frowned and looked at Xu Xiaxi, "What are you going to say?" ”

Obviously, he had already shouted 'Li Chen' before, and even called him 'senior', but he didn't see him for a day and returned to 'Lawyer Fu', he was really angry!

Xu Xiaxi took a deep breath, did not escape as in the past, and for the first time, he looked up at Fu Lichen directly, and said solemnly: "Fu Lichen, you are my senior." ”

Fu Lichen was satisfied with Xu Xiaxi's changed title, and said lightly, waiting for Xu Xiaxi's next words.

"You're my colleague and boss." Xu Xiaxi continued to add an identity.

Fu Lichen nodded again, "And then?" ”

"No more."

Xu Xiaxi replied lightly, and smiled back at Fu Lichen's puzzled gaze, "Our relationship is so simple, and there is no other relationship that is not simple." ”

Fu Lichen's brows furrowed, and his eyes locked tightly on Xu Xiaxi, implying anger.

That's it, every time in the past, as long as a man showed the slightest displeasure, he could make Xu Xiaxi tremble, and then all the persistence was gone, and he obediently confessed.

But this time, Xu Xiaxi didn't dodge, bravely met Fu Lichen's gaze, suppressed the tremor in his heart, and continued as smoothly as possible: "So, I hope you can treat me as an ordinary colleague in the future, do business, and don't talk about or do those misleading things."

You and I have known each other for so long, and you should know that I don't like those ambiguous teases, which only make me feel disgusting. ”

The last two words made Fu Lichen swallow all the words that came to his mouth.

He didn't expect that all the feelings he had never shown to anyone except Xu Xiaxi would make her disgusting!

Xu Xiaxi didn't know how her words would affect Fu Lichen, she just wanted to clean up this kind of untidy and messy relationship, and she didn't have any nostalgia when she spoke.

She was waiting for Fu Lichen to give her a positive answer, and from then on the two had nothing to do with each other, and there was no more selfishness.

But Fu Lichen didn't speak.

Xu Xiaxi glanced up at Fu Lichen, only to see the man staring at her with a heavy gaze, and his face was cold and alienated like never before.

She thought, Fu Lichen is probably tired of this slimy ambiguity, and she may have solved the troubles of the two of them now!

Thinking like this, Xu Xiaxi suppressed the last bit of nostalgia in his heart, and said in that stereotypical tone: "I live at home now, if there is anything about the case that I need to do, you can call me." ”

The implication is that you don't come to her without business.

After saying these words without dodging, Xu Xiaxi didn't stay any longer, turned around and walked out of the conference room.

She didn't see the deep wound behind Fu Lichen, just as she didn't realize the loss hidden under her relaxed exterior.

That's it, it's irrelevant!
