Chapter 109: Eating Doesn't Work Either
Fu Lichen's movements paused, and his expression was a little stunned, "What? ”
"I said, I wasn't the one who made the noise just now." Xu Xiaxi muttered quietly.
She shrugged her shoulders, showed that kind of good show expression, and hummed: "In broad daylight, if someone tries to kidnap someone else's girlfriend, don't blame someone else for coming to the door!" ”
Xia Xi deliberately said the opposite, which made Fu Lichen's brows frown deeply again.
Said the name softly and firmly, "Brother Kun." ”
Xu Xiaxi pursed his lips and didn't speak, but it was obvious that Fu Lichen guessed correctly.
Fu Lichen's expression became more and more cold, he quickly took out his mobile phone and dialed a number, but it said: "The phone you dialed has been turned off, please dial again later......"
The mechanical female voice kept echoing with English, and even Xu Xiaxi heard it.
She shrugged her shoulders and said, "Tsk, it's none of my business, and I didn't expect it to be so coincidental." ”
She didn't forget about eavesdropping on the side, even Long Kun, who was far away in Haishi, also came, and she happened to hear it.
Fu Lichen's face turned pale, and he tried to make two calls, but he couldn't get through Long Kun's number, and finally had to give up.
"Forget it, we'll see it then!"
"Uh......" Although Xu Xiaxi was a little gloating, he also became nervous when he saw Fu Lichen's rare solemn expression, "Perhaps, Director Long won't take this to heart!" Either way, he's your mentor and partner, and he's ...... It's not you who is at fault when something like that just happened! ”
If you really listened to the whole process just now, then anyone with ears could hear Fu Lichen and Yu Yingying's respective attitudes - from beginning to end, it was Yu Yingying's unrequited love!
Fu Lichen, whether in the past or now, has always firmly rejected Yu Yingying, and has not shown the slightest intimacy to make people misunderstand.
If Long Kun can blame Fu Lichen for this, then the other party is afraid that he is not blind and deaf, right?
Although this is indeed the case, Xu Xiaxi felt an indescribable panic, and Fu Lichen did not relax after listening to her comfort, but shook his head at her meaninglessly.
Sigh: "If only things were that simple." ”
That night, both of them were heartbroken by this; It wasn't until the next day that there was a knock on their door.
Yu Yingying appeared in front of them holding Long Kun's hand.
Rao is calm as Fu Lichen couldn't help but be stunned, so he heard Yu Yingying say with a relaxed expression: "Li Chen, Ah Kun is also here, let's go out to eat together later?!" ”
The demeanor is natural, the tone is relaxed, and the appearance is calm.
And the expression on Long Kun's face was also very calm, as if he hadn't heard anything yesterday.
Fu Lichen's surprise was only for a moment, and he quickly regained his usual composure, just glanced at the two of them, then nodded and agreed: "Okay." ”
Yu Yingying pretended to be very calm on her face, but she was actually a little apprehensive in her heart.
She was afraid that Fu Lichen would reject her again, but at the same time, she also understood that with Long Kun here, the other party would not reject her.
Now that I heard that Fu Lichen finally agreed to her invitation, but because of Long Kun, I didn't know whether I was more happy or more bitter.
But she didn't show these complicated feelings, and discussed the case with the two of them calmly and naturally.
Xu Xiaxi listened to the casual conversation between the three of them, and exclaimed in his heart: This, this is too pretending!
Obviously, the three of them are in the most bloody love triangle in history, but why do they look so calm on the outside.
If it weren't for the fact that she saw Yu Yingying's confession to Fu Lichen and was rejected - Long Kun also heard it with her own ears - she couldn't guess that the three people in front of her who were seriously discussing the case still had such a complicated relationship behind their backs.
Probably because the entanglement on Xu Xiaxi's face was too obvious, Fu Lichen gently slapped the back of her head and said lightly: "What are you thinking about?" Didn't it make you change your clothes and get ready to go out? ”
In the past two days, Xu Xiaxi has been sick and has just subsided with a high fever, so he is wearing a bathrobe provided by the hotel.
"Oh, oh!"
Xu Xiaxi nodded dumbfounded, and realized that she seemed to be able to go out at last!!
Because of her illness, she was restricted by Fu Lichen's range of activities, and forcefully deprived her of the right to taste any food, and she has had a miserable past few days!
But the effect is also obvious, she only has a little cold now, and all other problems are gone!
Xu Xiaxi changed her clothes and was in a happy mood, but after coming out of the bathroom, she found that the atmosphere in the guest room had fallen into a strange stiffness again.
Yu Yingying and Long Kun's faces were not very good-looking, but Fu Lichen was expressionless, no one spoke, just stood opposite each other, as if they were confronted.
Xu Xiaxi's heart sighed, and secretly said that the East Window incident should finally happen!
I saw Long Kun pull out a not-so-good-looking smile and said, "Li Chen, it's just a meal out with my old classmates, Lai Fei has mentioned you many times, you won't even refuse to give this face!" ”
Fu Lichen hooked the corners of his mouth with a smile, looked at Long Kun, and said meaningfully: "I told you before I came, I came just for the case." ”
Long Kun's face was a little red, but after years of experience in officialdom and politics, he quickly regained his composure, and said naturally: "I didn't say that you should do anything else!" But an old classmate, Lai Fei just happened to work here, just to meet and have a meal, what can be the problem? ”
"Sorry, I'm not available." Fu Lichen coldly refused.
Straightforward and unrelenting.
Long Kun's expression froze, and then his face sank like water, and when he spoke again, his voice became cold and hard, "Fu Lichen, don't go too far!" ”
Fu Lichen's expression remained unchanged, and his tone was light, but he stated in an unquestionable tone: "It's okay to go out to eat, but it's not okay to see Lai Fei." ”
After a pause, he still reminded Long Kun, "Tomorrow this case will be in court, since you are here, you can rest and don't go out." ”
After speaking, he didn't wait for Long Kun to say anything, so he took Xu Xiaxi and walked back.
Xu Xiaxi didn't understand what the two were talking about at all, but vaguely heard that Long Kun seemed to be taking Fu Lichen to meet an old classmate of theirs, but Fu Lichen was unwilling, and even canceled the plan to go out to eat.
"By the way, who is Lai Fei?" Although the expression on Fu Lichen's face was not very good, Xu Xiaxi still didn't suppress the curiosity in his heart and asked.
Fu Lichen had to answer all questions this time, "My roommate from college, you have seen it." ”
Hey? Is there such a thing?
Xu Xiaxi recalled in her mind, the face and the name did not match - although she and Fu Lichen were boyfriend and girlfriend in college, and the duration was not short, neither of them seemed to introduce each other to their friends.
So much so that the two have been dating for so long, Xia Xi's friend and roommate Ye Qian didn't know that the two had ever dated.
Xia Xi smiled bitterly and said secretly: It is because Fu Lichen can't see that he has any special feelings for her when he is with her, and some things that boyfriends and girlfriends will do are completely absent from Fu Lichen, so she is so insecure, and when Yang Yujun appeared and deceived her, she didn't even have the courage to ask Fu Lichen for verification and ran away.
"What are you thinking?" Fu Lichen's faint voice came from above his head, and the back of Xia Xi's head was slapped again.
Xu Xiaxi covered his head in pain and glared at Fu Lichen dissatisfiedly, "Why are you beating me!" I'm just wondering who Raify is, did you have a holiday with him? Why don't you want to ask people out for dinner? ”
Even as soon as he heard that Lai Fei would also have dinner together, he directly rejected Long Kun.
This kind of performance similar to 'backsliding' is too different from Fu Lichen!
Could it be that Fu Lichen had some holiday with that old classmate named Lai Fei before?
For example, Barrister Fu was robbed of a friend by this person, time has passed, and the old classmate wants to regain the old friendship, so he entrusted Long Kun as a middleman, but Barrister Fu has always been stubborn and refuses to let go, and even does not hesitate to release Long Kun's pigeons......
As soon as Xu Xiaxi's brain was opened, he couldn't take it, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.
Until the back of her head was slapped lightly again, and she met Fu Lichen's helpless gaze, "What are you thinking about again?!" ”
Xu Xiaxi snorted confidently: "Although you even pushed back when you went to see an old classmate, no wonder I thought about it too much!" ”
Fu Lichen pinched his eyebrows, and sighed tiredly and helplessly: "I don't want to go because Lai Fei is now working in the Xishi Intermediate People's Court, and he happens to be the presiding judge of this case." ”
"W-What?!" Xu Xiaxi was taken aback, and suddenly came back to his senses, "The director asked you to eat with him for ......"
The corners of Fu Lichen's mouth hooked up a mocking smile, and he said meaningfully: "Otherwise, why do you think he suddenly came to me at the second trial and asked me to represent this case?" Do you really think he's here to send me money? ”
Xu Xiaxi was a little disillusioned by Fu Lichen's smile, shrunk his neck, and diverted the topic, "But didn't you say before that Xirong specified that he wanted you to act as an agent, and Li Xianbo deliberately designed you to win you once?" ”
"There must be a reason for this, but this case was through the hands of Brother Kun, it is impossible for him to be completely unaware of Li Xianbo's thoughts, but he still found me, probably thinking that I can win this case!"
Xu Xiaxi suddenly realized after listening to Fu Lichen's explanation: I didn't expect this case to have this inside story!
But at the same time, she was a little incomprehensible, "Even if your old classmate is the presiding judge of this case, it shouldn't have anything to do with the case itself, right?" Relationships such as classmates, friends, and colleagues are not within the scope of the recusal of judges as stipulated in the Civil Procedure Law! ”
Theoretically, the two are not in conflict.
Fu Lichen sneered, touched Xu Xiaxi's 'dog head', and said with a smile: "You also know that it is a theory." ”
Without waiting for Xu Xiaxi to protest, Fu Lichen had already taken out his mobile phone and dialed another phone number.
After the phone was dialed, Fu Lichen said coldly to the other end, "Do me a favor!" ”
