Three days later, my body recovered, and Li Xiaoning also came. After a few simple greetings, Ye Huan found an excuse to go out, and the two of us got straight to the point.

"What's the deal with the money?" I asked her, "How do you know that I was doing something for my third brother that day?" ”

She took a sip of tea, "Xiao Liu told me, he said that the third brother was angry with him, and it is estimated that he can't keep his job, and he wants me to help him arrange a place to go." ”

"Then you shouldn't have to pay for this money", I looked at her, "Xiao Ning, give me your card number, and I'll transfer it back to you." ”

She glanced at me and smiled slightly, "Don't be funny, how can feng shui money turn around." Third brother, you don't know much about this person, he needs a group of people to follow him to wipe his ass. In the past, those so-called masters, every time he waved his hand and promised to give people as many red envelopes, and then, if I didn't follow up on this matter, it would basically be over. This time the matter is too big for you to carry for him, so I will make it up for you. ”

"Then it doesn't have to be 500,000, right? He said to give me another 300,000 yuan, you are good, more generous than him. Besides, Feng Shui money doesn't pay for others, you can't do that. ”

She was silent for a moment and sighed softly, "Lin Zhuo, actually, I also want to thank you." ”

"Thank me? Thank me for what? I looked at her.

She raised her eyebrows, "Thank you for not only not exposing me to my face, but also persuading him to continue to cooperate with me." ”

I was stunned, "What do you ......say?"

She put down the cup, "Mingren doesn't say dark words, I understand what you have done for me, this piece of heart." Yes, the third brother's business, that's what I mean. I'm coming to you today to tell you about these things. ”

"Wait!" I interrupted her, "Why are you telling me?" It's a matter for the two of you, I don't know, and I don't want to know, so why do you have to say it? ”

She looked at me, "Because you saved me, you're my friend, and ...... It's the man I like. ”

My face turned red all of a sudden, "Don't make this joke, I can't afford ......"

She smiled, "You don't have to be nervous, Li Xiaoning likes a lot of people, and you are just one of them, not the only one, so I'm afraid." ”

"Joke, what am I afraid of", I scoffed.

"Everyone is a smart person, it's better to open up and say it in your heart", she glanced at me, "In your opinion, the third brother treats me well, and it may be difficult to understand why I treat him like this." Actually, I don't want to do this, I am very willing to believe him, but in the past few years, he has lied to me again and again, and I have really lost confidence in him. ”

"He lied to you?" I was puzzled, "What did he lie to you?" ”

"Just like for you, in fact, he was ready to give you a red envelope in the morning, but after he finished speaking, he didn't take it seriously", she sighed, "Do you say that he is slippery, no, but thinking and doing are often two different things." I began to trust him as much as you do, but after a long time, I really can't get enough patience for him to be this kind of empty promise. I love him, he likes me, it's okay to be together like this, I don't have any other ideas. But he had to pretend to be generous to give me hope, and when the flame of hope really burned, he then brought me another basin of cold water, and after a few times, my heart was completely broken by him. ”

"I don't understand this, what do you mean to give you hope?" I asked.

She looked out quietly, "The relationship between the two of us, to put it nicely, is at most a lover, but in fact, it is not even a lover." I know what kind of woman I am, and although I love him, I never thought about marrying him, I really didn't. I know my identity, compared to Zhang Nan, I am not even as good as a side room, but I am just one of the many women in the boss. ”

"And then?"

"When Lu Yun first got along with me, he was very infatuated with me", she smiled faintly, "Maybe he just liked my body at first, but then something slowly changed." On my birthday the year before last, he gave me a promise to divorce and marry me. I was very moved, but I could only laugh at such words, and I couldn't take them seriously. ”

"The more you don't believe it, the more the third brother wants you to believe it, right?" I laughed.

She nodded, "He knew I didn't believe me, so he tried everything he could to make me believe it." For me, he bought a house in Hainan with Zhang Nan behind his back, wrote my name, and bought a pigeon egg for me, saying that I would keep it first and use it when I got engaged in the future. Women, no matter how rational they are, they are also emotional animals, I don't know if I think I take it seriously", she smiled bitterly, "If you take it seriously, you will lose." ”

"The year before last, that is, the year Zhou Ting appeared?" I asked.

She bowed her head and said nothing, the corners of her eyes moistened.

"Xiao Ning, it's all over, don't mention it again", I handed her a tissue.

"No, you let me finish," she said, taking the tissue, "I thought he loved me, even if he couldn't get married." Men, it's normal to have a heart of flowers, as long as you have me in your heart, it's enough. In fact, you can guess that my ex-boyfriend and I hadn't broken up at that time, so it's just two cheating people, and it's just too serious. ”

"The year before that...... Seems so", I thought for a moment, "you should still be together." ”

"So, I'm not a peaceful woman", she looked at me, "I'm the same as the third brother, I don't have the courage." My ex-boyfriend didn't have much to offer, and my parents didn't like him, but I was thinking about my old relationship, and I didn't want to break up with him, no matter how hard it was. The third brother is the same, no matter how infatuated he is with me, he will not really divorce for me. ”

"I see," I breathed a sigh of relief, "You're all quite brave. ”

She wiped her tears, "Not long after the house in Hainan was bought, the company's capital chain went wrong. In order to help him tide over the difficulties, I sold the house, borrowed some money from my friends and classmates, and scraped together more than 8 million yuan for him. But this money is still not enough, so I used my house as a guarantee and helped him borrow more than 2 million, a total of about 10 million. With this money, the company got through that hurdle. But what I never expected was that when the pass passed, I realized that he had already gotten along with Zhou Ting. On the one hand, I tried my best to scrape together money for him, but on the other hand, he spent money for Zhou Ting, and in an instant I felt cold and painful, broken to the ground, and I couldn't pick it up. ”

I nodded, "Understood." ”

"After they got better, we broke up", she smiled bitterly, "At that time, my ex-boyfriend was going to break up with me, it was really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and my emotional defense line completely collapsed." ”

"So you're going to get revenge?"

She shook her head, "I didn't, I thought about leaving the company, I thought about killing myself, but I finally dismissed those thoughts." I've been a strong person since I was a child, I don't need to live for him, I want to live my own wonderful life. ”

"To be fair, you are much stronger than Zhou Ting", I smiled.

"No, Zhou Ting is much smarter and luckier than me", she sighed, "Lu Yungang liked her, so he raised her like a baby." But what about me? While he said he loved me, he kept sending me to other men's beds for business, what the fuck is this love? Sadly, I believed it back and volunteered to sacrifice my life for his business. I hid a lot of things from him and didn't tell him, not because I was romantic, but because I ...... It's that I'm afraid he's uncomfortable, you know? ”

"Understood", I also sighed, "I believe that the third brother really likes you, but some of his practices have caused a lot of misunderstandings between you." ”

"He's a good promise, but you can't take it seriously", she changed a wet wipe, "If it's serious, you'll be hurt by him, but you can't really care about him, because he is at least sincere when he promises." Time and time again, I really can't stand it anymore. Especially after he transferred half of the shares he promised me to Zhou Ting's mother's name, I really couldn't bear it anymore. ”

"That's why you're looking for someone to do the game?"

"Yes", she glanced at me, "Mingtuan, I'm not his opponent, I can only use this method!" ”

"But you still hesitated, feeling sorry for him, so you let him go at critical times several times, right?"

She was silent for a while, "After all, we once loved, and I have been confused countless times, is it right to do this, is it worth it...... That night, you asked me to accompany him, and the feng shui master I asked asked me to bring the copper bottle over, but I refused at first, and I said forget it, don't hurt him again. He said that this was not to harm him, since he had stopped, he had to let the peony red become one, otherwise this female ghost would haunt me and him for the rest of my life. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have ......."

"Needless to say, I understand", I let out a long sigh of relief, "Xiao Ning, these things are over, don't mention them in the future." Put aside your relationship for the first time, at least in terms of career, you are a good partner. The third brother has been unlucky in the past two years, and he should suffer this setback, and he will be fine in the future. But I can't ask for that money, it's not appropriate, and I have to give it back to you. ”

She shook her head, "Lin Zhuo, listen to me, you can't look at this matter like that." The third brother's money was already too late for you, and that was not enough. You didn't expose me, but you persuaded him to continue working with me, which is a great favor for me. I know that his luck will be good and the company will grow very well, and that's why I have to give you this money. First, only in this way can I be blessed to get the good luck in the future, and secondly, how to say this thing, I am sorry for him, help him do something, and feel better. ”

"But it's too much......"

"Not much!" She looked at me, "I asked that guy to do the formation, do you know how much money was given to him?" Million! I understand this rule, two million formations, broken to give you three million is not much. Now added together, a total of 1.3 million has been given to you, which is already the bottom line of the friendship price. I said, I like you very much, and I have to ask you for help in the future, if you refuse, it means that you don't recognize me as a friend, and you don't want to associate with me, if you really say so, then I will leave immediately, and I will never come to annoy you again. ”

I couldn't help laughing, "Xiao Ning, you make me have to admire." Okay, I'll take the money, let's have a meal together at noon, and thank you as a gift. ”

She also smiled, "I won't eat the meal, I have to go to Shanghai in the afternoon." Hey, by the way, there is one more thing I have to make clear to you, Xiao Liu's matter has nothing to do with me. ”

"Oh?" I frowned, "That's not what you meant, so he ate the leopard gall?" ”

Li Xiaoning smiled playfully, "You have wronged me, and I really didn't mean it." Let me tell you, Xiao Liu has always liked Zhou Ting, for the sake of that incident, he couldn't wait to kill Lu Yungang, and I don't need to say more about the rest. ”
