Chapter Seventy-One: Coming Home?
At night, in the villa, in the room of the cold stream, the two people who were tense refused to show weakness.
Mu Xuncheng didn't expect Leng Qingxi's attitude to be so tough, it seemed that he had given her so much freedom that she had forgotten her identity.
Leng Qingxi was confused, and he couldn't figure out the purpose of Mu Xuncheng's coming here today, isn't he in a bad state now? Leng Qingxi felt that the current state was no better for each other.
Two people each have their own lives, they have nothing to do with each other, and they are safe with each other, isn't it? She doesn't want to think about the past, but now she just wants a space to live freely, and Mu Xuncheng refuses to give it to herself?
"Mu Xuncheng, I don't know which tendon is wrong with you, come to make trouble with me, during this time I asked myself if I didn't take the initiative to provoke you, didn't disturb your life, if you are so unreasonable again, don't blame me for being polite." Leng Qingxi couldn't bear it.
"Heh, you didn't provoke me? But you provoked my friend, don't think I don't know, who sent you off work every day? Who is lingering in front of my house, Lone Stream, are you so impatient? Can't even hold on for two years? ”
"What do you mean by that? You're having people spy on me? Shi Zhong and I are just ordinary friends, please don't speculate on us with your dirty thoughts. Leng Qingxi's face turned pale, she didn't expect Mu Xuncheng to actually spy on her.
"Hmph, I'm not that bored." Mu Xuncheng said without confidence, in fact, what he did was more boring and difficult to talk about than sending people to monitor, of course he wouldn't admit it.
"I don't want to explain anything to you anymore, and I don't want to listen to your insults anymore."
"Do you think I'm willing to talk to you about this? I have come today to inform you that your good days have come to an end. You've been here for so long, it's time to move back. ”
"What? Moving back? Leng Qingxi was a little stunned for a while: "Why do you want to move back, am I not good here?" Aren't you happy that I don't show up in front of you? ”
"I wish you never showed up in front of me, but you have to move back."
"Why?" Leng Qingxi looked puzzled.
"Slap" Mu Xuncheng threw a newspaper in front of Leng Qingxi: "Read it yourself." ”
Leng Qingxi picked up the newspaper, which was a local gossip tabloid, and the front page of the newspaper read in eye-catching black letters: "President Mu's is suspected of a marriage change, and it is a fact that the husband and wife are separated." ”
"What is this?"
"What, do you think that as the president of Mushi, those tabloid reporters will let me go? Fortunately, I found out early, and I didn't let it really go out, do you know how much impact it has on our Mushi? Do you think no one knows your whereabouts every day? If I hadn't pressed these things, they would have been exposed! ”
"These people, how can they be so boring, can't I even see my friends?" Leng Qingxi lost her soul and sat on the bed all of a sudden, she never thought that her every move would become a topic of conversation after tea and dinner, nor did she expect that Mu Xuncheng would have to bear so much silently.
"Leng Qingxi, I hope that you can fulfill our contract and stop causing me any more trouble. Don't you just want money? I can give it to you too. ”
"What did you say?" Mu Xuncheng's words successfully angered Leng Qingxi again: "Mu Xuncheng, do you know what I look down on you the most?" Yes, it's true that you have a lot of money, but not everyone wants your money, you underestimate others too much, you think too highly of yourself, and you look like you're on top, it's really annoying. ”
Mu Xuncheng's accusation against Leng Qingxi just scoffed, what kind of joke, if you didn't covet your own property, what did you marry for? Don't tell me it's love, there is no affection between two people at all.
"If you remember our contract, you should know what you have to do, you know how sensational our marriage is, and you know how many pairs of eyes are staring at us. So, whatever the reason, you have to go back with me. And, don't forget, the design you promised me is not finished yet. ”
Leng Qingxi was silent, even though she was unhappy in her heart, but Mu Xuncheng's words made her unable to refute, no matter how bad the relationship between the two people was, in the eyes of outsiders, she was also his wife, and there was indeed a contract between the two people, if you wanted to be free, you had to make some sacrifices, Leng Qingxi herself knew it.
The newspaper thing was something she never thought of, it turned out that she could no longer live like a normal person, and her every move had been exposed to the eyes of others.
Thinking of this, Leng Qingxi couldn't help but shudder, no, he must get out of this life, how to get out, then the only way to end this marriage with Mu Xuncheng is to end it early.
"Well, okay, I'll pack up and go back tomorrow." Leng Qingxi finally compromised.
"Whatever you want, the sooner the better anyway, I'll ask Lao Zhou to send a car to pick you up tomorrow, you'd better not cause me any more trouble." Mu Xuncheng left a sentence coldly, turned around and left, his purpose today has been achieved, there is no need to stay here anymore.
Walking to the door, Xiao Ling was still enthusiastically keeping him to stay for dinner, in Xiao Ling's opinion, the young master could come back, it was a happy event for Leng Qingxi, but he left with such a bad face, it must have been unpleasant between the two of them.
The time she spent with Leng Qingxi was not short, and this relationship made her feel that Leng Qingxi was a very kind and very good hostess, so when she saw the relationship between the two people, she couldn't help but secretly worry about Leng Qingxi.
Leng Qingxi was in his room, silently packing his bags, thinking that he could live like this. Throw away those disturbances, and spend two years peacefully like this, and you will not let your heart ripple again because of anyone.
However, Mu Xuncheng is always like this, going back and forth in his own life, without taking into account his own feelings at all, it seems that this time, his good life is over.
Xiao Ling stood at the door with her head probed, saw Leng Qingxi packing up her things, and asked a little strangely, "Madam, what are you doing here?" ”
Leng Qingxi sighed: "Xiaoling, I'm leaving." ”
"What? Where are you going? Did the young master drive you away? Madam, it's not Xiaoling who said you, the young master has the temper of the eldest young master, you shouldn't quarrel with him, you have to know, how many people envy your status today. What can I do now? He's going to drive you away, or I'm going to beg him? Oops, it's definitely useless. Xiao Ling's anxious tears were about to flow out.
Leng Qingxi touched Xiaoling's head: "Silly girl, it's not what you think, I'm going back to him." ”
"Really? That's great, I'll just say, you don't live together like this, how can you be like a husband and wife. Xiao listened to Leng Qingxi's words and burst into laughter.
"Well, I'd rather live here."
"Madam, what are you talking about, come on, I'll help you pack your luggage, it's great." Xiaoling was overjoyed.
Leng Qingxi sighed deeply in her heart, this is not something to be happy about, there are still people who envy her, she is willing to give up the position of the young grandmother of the Mu family, whoever likes to do it will give it to whomever she likes, anyway, she is not rare at all.
That being said, she's going back.
The next day, after getting off work, as soon as I left the door of the company, I saw Lao Zhou standing in front of a car in person, waiting for him respectfully.
Seeing Leng Qingxi, Lao Zhou said in an emotionless tone: "Miss Leng, hello, it was the young master who asked me to pick you up." ”
"But it's my stuff."
"Miss Leng, please rest assured, we have already retrieved your things."
"Okay then." Leng Qingxi nodded, and just as he was about to get into the car, he heard someone shouting his name in the distance.
Leng Qingxi stopped his movements, raised his head, and found that Wen Shizhong was waving to him across the road, Leng Qingxi bit his lip and said to Lao Zhou: "I'm sorry, I'm going to say a few words to my friend, please wait for me for a while." ”
"Then please Miss Leng hurry up." Lao Zhou still looks like a businessman.
Leng Qingxi trotted in front of Wen Shizhong.
"Where are you going?" Wen Shizhong raised his eyebrows at Lao Zhou, Mu Xuncheng's housekeeper, how could Wen Shizhong not know him.
"Se Chung, I'm going to move back in." Leng Qingxi said embarrassedly.
"Move back? Where to move? Wen Shizhong didn't react for a while.
"Move back to Mu Xuncheng and Ling Fei'er."
"Oh......" Wen Shizhong didn't know what to say for a while.
Leng Qingxi glanced back at the somewhat impatient butler who was waiting on the side, and said, "I'm leaving, goodbye." With that, she hurried back to the car.
Watching the car disappear, Wen Shizhong said to himself: "Then, you have to take care of yourself." ”
Leng Qingxi's mood was a little heavy, looking at the so-called "home", she didn't want to step into it.
What kind of home is this, home, it should be a place full of warmth, but here, almost everyone is cold to themselves, here, she has no happy memories left.
However, she still reluctantly moved to the house step by step, and she had to endure it for the sake of the so-called agreement, for the sake of freedom after two years.
Push open the door and nothing has changed in the living room. No one seems to have seen her return, all the servants are busy in an orderly manner, yes, this time should be the time for Mu Xuncheng to eat.
From the unclosed door of the restaurant, Ling Fei'er's laughter came.
By the way, why did I forget, Ling Fei'er should come back. The two have not seen each other since her accident, and it seems that the kidnapping incident did not have a bad impact on her.
Leng Qingxi sighed and walked back to his maid's room. The luggage was piled up on the floor in a haphazard manner, making the already small room look extra crowded.
It's back, it's back here, it's living this oppressive life. Leng Qingxi bent down, opened a suitcase, took out the clothes inside one by one, thought about it, and put it back again.
Forget it, I don't know what tomorrow will happen anyway, so I might as well leave it like this.
While Ling Fei'er and Mu Xuncheng were eating, she walked to the living room and found that the design drafts and books she had left behind before were still honestly piled up in a corner.
picked up a manuscript casually, with two lines on it, one thick and one thin, which came from the hands of Mu Xuncheng and Leng Qingxi, respectively, which reminded Leng Qingxi of the scene when the two worked together to draw the draft.
