Chapter 181: Together
Lian Peng couldn't understand the reasons for this, but he didn't pursue these at the moment, just looked at Lu Ao and smiled kindly, and said, "Since the two of you are acquaintances, then you can talk about it yourself!" β
As soon as Lian Peng's words were finished, Kou Zhong had a tacit understanding, looked at Lian Peng and smiled faintly, and followed Lian Peng and them away.
After a few people left, only the two people who looked talented and beautiful were left in the same place, and they looked at the cold and handsome Lu Ao, and their smiles suddenly became shy.
"Lu Ao ......" called Lu Ao softly, and there was a tenderness unique to a little girl in his words.
"Hello, Lianxin!" Lu Ao smiled, his attitude was appropriate, not too enthusiastic, and not cold.
"We haven't seen each other in a long time!" Lian Xin said, with a hint of bitterness in his smile, "I went to study abroad with the company some time ago, and I just came back a few days ago, so I haven't contacted you for so long." β
In the face of Lianxin, Lu Ao didn't have too many ideas, but because of Lianxin's simple and kind personality, Lu Ao still had more patience with Lianxin.
"Let's go over there and sit down and talk." Lu Ao looked around at the surrounding environment, pointed to a quiet place and said to Lianxin.
"Okay!" Lian Xin was very happy, his eyes were shining, and his eyelashes were crooked and he smiled at Lu Ao. The smile drove the shallow pear vortex on both sides of her cheeks, pure and moving, like a lily in full bloom quietly, pure and gorgeous.
Sitting down at the table covered with a white satin tablecloth, Lu Ao and Lian Xin looked at the crowd of people who were busy socializing in front of them, drinking red wine in a goblet and slowly talking about the topic of the two people.
Taking a sip of wine, feeling the mellow aroma of grapes and the strong feeling of alcohol spreading in his mouth, Lian Xin lowered his head slightly, and asked softly with some difficulty: "Lu Ao, you and Tang Yi ...... YesγAre you really together? β
Hearing Lian Xin's question, Lu Ao's eyes paused, his eyebrows narrowed, and Lu Ao said, "Yes, we are together." β
Lu Ao's words were light and calm, but when these words came out of Lu Ao's magnetic voice, there was always a kind of demagogic power, which was fascinating.
Lian Xin couldn't help but think that if the other half of Lu Ao's words was her, then she would definitely faint happily.
"......" bit her lip unbearably, squeezed the wine glass in her hand with one hand, and unconsciously grabbed the tablecloth in her hand with the other hand, twisting it together.
After a long time, Lian Xin squeezed out a smile and asked again: "Then how are you now, is the relationship going well?" β
Lianxin is half jealous and half caring, if Lu Ao and Tang Yi are really happy together, then she will try her best to bless them.
It's just that I didn't expect that just when Lianxin was trying his best to convince himself, he heard Lu Ao's surprising words, "We broke up!" β
"Huh?" Lian Xin was stunned, looking at Lu Ao for a long time and couldn't come back to his senses.
"I love him so much that the breakup is temporary." Lu Ao said this, and in Lianxin's change of eyes from shock to dazedness, Lu Ao sighed imperceptibly.
Originally, Lu Ao didn't plan to tell Lianxin about the problems he and Tang Yi had now, he would rather let Lianxin believe that he and Tang Yi were very sweet, and maybe even more dispel Lianxin's thoughts about him.
It's just that, thinking of Kou Zhong's attitude and what Kou Zhong once said, Lu Ao understood that Lianxin was the girl that Kou Zhong wanted to match him.
In this way, Lu Ao couldn't help but think about it in his heart, and after thinking about it, Lu Ao decided to gamble once.
"Lianxin, Tang Yi and I had to break up temporarily for some external reasons, but I won't give up on him." Lu Ao looked at Lianxin, and while explaining to her, he also stated his position.
Lian Xin lowered his eyes gloomily, "Then why are you telling me this?" β
After all, since Lu Ao's mind was on Tang Yi, there was no need to say this kind of thing to her, an outsider.
"Lianxin, I know my next words may be a little selfish, but I need your help!" Lu Ao suddenly looked serious, looked at Lian Xin and said very seriously, in Lian Xin's surprised gaze, Lu Ao said again: "Of course, you can choose to refuse." β
Hearing Lu Ao say this, Lian Xin was very curious about this matter, and at the same time understood the seriousness of this matter, otherwise Lu Ao would not have asked her for help.
"Tell me what's going on!" Taking a deep breath, Lian Xin looked at Lu Ao and asked solemnly.
Lu Ao first raised his eyes to look at the surrounding environment, and saw that Kou Zhong was talking to someone else in a place far away from him, and Lu Ao relaxed his vigilance slightly.
Sensing Lu Ao's gaze, Lian Xin followed Lu Ao's gaze, and immediately saw the strange man who claimed to be Lu Ao's father.
Suddenly, Lianxin understood that the external reason for Lu Ao and Tang Yi's temporary breakup may come from the man.
Sure enough, after Lu Ao was silent for a moment, he looked at her and said in a deep voice: "The man just now, Kou Zhong, he is my biological father. You know, I was raised by my father Ziqian, and I didn't think about who my biological father was for so many years, until I knew about it last year. β
Lian Xin nodded silently, and immediately understood the relationship between Lu Ao and that man.
"Lianxin, Kou Zhong's identity is a bit complicated, he is a person in the underworld, the important thing is that he is ruthless, insidious and cunning." This is Lu Ao's evaluation of Kou Zhong, when he said such a thing, Lu Ao's mood did not fluctuate at all, as if he was talking about a person who had nothing to do with him.
"After Kou Zhong knew that I was dating Tang Yi, he used some means to force Tang Yi to leave me, because he ridiculously thought that there was no love between men and men, and ridiculously thought that he was my biological father, so he could decide everything about me without authorization." This is what Lu Ao despises and dislikes Kou Zhong the most.
"Because of his harm to Tang Yi, I had to temporarily break up with Tang Yi, which is my protection for Tang Yi before I had a complete solution. Although, such behavior may be very weak and unproductive in your eyes. As he spoke, Lu Ao looked at Lian Xin, who was listening to him, and laughed a little self-deprecatingly.
"No, it's not ......" Lian Xin shook her head, not only did she not feel that Lu Ao was weak, but she could see Lu Ao's affection even more.
Seeing that Lian Xin seemed to be immersed in his narration, his beautiful and delicate face wrinkled slightly, as if he was a little unbearable. Lu Ao took a heavy breath and continued: "This banquet was invited by Kou Zhong to come over, I didn't know what his purpose was before that, but after seeing you here, I understood his intentions. β
"What is it?" Lian Xin breathed and asked in a hurry.
Lu Ao looked at Lianxin with deep eyes, and said slowly: "He brought me here today, the main purpose is to meet you!" β
"Huh, why?" Lian Xin tilted his head slightly, and his clear and beautiful eyes were full of confusion.
"Maybe it's because he knows your dad, or maybe after all considerations, he thinks you're the most suitable woman for me." In his ridiculously surprised gaze, Lu Ao continued: "Kou Zhong has always thought that it was wrong for me to like a man, so he desperately wanted me to find a girlfriend, preferably to get married and have children, so that he might feel that he was pulling me on the right path in what he thought. β
"Hehe, isn't he thinking too simple, doesn't he understand that no matter what he does, it is actually difficult to stop two people who love each other?" You see, this kind of truth, a little woman like Lianxin understands, but Kou Zhong is in self-righteous delusion.
"He doesn't think about that, he only uses his vicious means to achieve his ends." Lu Ao curled the corners of his lips mockingly, and snorted coldly.
"Lu Ao......" Lian Xin called softly, "How are you going to let me help you?" β
After listening to Lu Ao's narration, Lianxin has decided to help Lu Ao with this, she likes Lu Ao so much, she always feels that Lu Ao is unattainable.
Lu Ao is in her heart, just like a male god stepping on the clouds, and she is the most awaited and proud beauty in her heart.
Although he can't be with Lu Ao, although Lu Ao doesn't like himself, but being able to help Lu Ao makes Lianxin feel that his life has a great value.
Especially, this time it was Lu Ao who took the initiative to ask for her help, even if Lu Ao could make her owe her a favor in his heart, Lian Xin was willing.
"I want to follow Kou Zhong's arrangement, you pretend to be with me first, on the one hand, stabilize Kou Zhong and confuse his eyes. On the other hand, after knowing that I am with you, Kou Zhong will let down his vigilance against Tang Yi, and Tang Yi's situation will not be so difficult. This is the main purpose of Lu Ao seeking Linking's help, "Linking, I know that it may be a little unfair to you to do this, so ......"
"I do!" Lian Xin simply interrupted Lu Ao's words, and said with a firm expression: "Lu Ao, I am willing to help you." β
Lian Xin knew what Lu Ao's worries were, it was nothing more than knowing that he liked him, so Lu Ao was worried that such a request would hurt him.
Lian Xin curled the corners of his lips, smiled at Lu Ao, and said softly: "Lu Ao, you don't have to worry, I understand what you mean." I'm not a bigoted person, I know you like people, and I don't force it. Even if I only see you as a friend, I am willing to help you. β
"Linking, thank you!" Lu Ao was moved, and sincerely thanked Lianxin.
With this, a consensus has been reached between Lu Ao and Lianxin, and in order to help Lu Ao and Tang Yi, Lianxin has stood in an alliance with Lu Ao.
At this moment, Kou Zhong's voice with a smile suddenly sounded behind the two of them, "Haha, it seems that the two of you can talk very well." β
Hearing this, Lu Ao and Lian Xin stood up at the same time and turned to look at Kou Zhong.
Lu Ao's expression was faint, he was silent and didn't speak, but Lian Xinyan smiled, looked at Kou Zhong and said very frankly: "Lu Ao and I are acquaintances, so we can talk better." β
"yes, that's for the best!" Kou Zhong glanced at Lu Ao meaningfully, hiding the brilliance that others couldn't see through in the depths of his eyes, and said with a smile.
