Chapter 75: The Substitute Lover Becomes the President's Favorite (75)
Listening to Shen Yan's words, Lin Xi was stunned at first, and then his eyes dimmed slightly.
Shen Yan thought that she didn't want to say it, so she immediately said, "It's okay if it's inconvenient to say, I'll just ask." ”
“… There is no inconvenience to say," Lin Xi said slowly, "That scar was left when I was eight years old. ”
"Eight? You mean......"
Shen Yan suddenly remembered that when they first met, Lin Xi said that his parents died when he was eight years old...... Could it be that the scar had something to do with the death of her parents?
"The cause of my parents' death was a fire."
Lin Xi fell into memories and said softly: "It was about two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, and the wires in the living room of my house were aging and suddenly caught fire. ”
"My parents and I were sleeping soundly, and when we opened our eyes when we felt something was wrong, the fire was already raging."
"My family lives on the top floor of one of those old-fashioned residential buildings, and they can't jump off the building or run out, so they can only wait in the house and wait for the firefighters to come to the rescue."
"The fire was so big that the smoke was so thick that it was terrifying and suffocating. My mother was in a state of madness and tried to climb out of the balcony, but my father stopped me. ”
"That's when a burning wooden bookshelf behind me suddenly collapsed and crushed my eight-year-old me to the ground."
"My father wanted to come and save me, but my mother pulled him and wouldn't let him come, so the bookshelf kept burning behind my back, leaving that scar."
Lin Xi lowered his eyes and said, "Later, I lost consciousness, and when I woke up, I had been successfully rescued. I was in the hospital, but my parents couldn't get out of the house. ”
"The house and my family's possessions were burned to the ground, which saved me a lot of trouble, and the government sent me to a social welfare institution after I recovered."
"Maybe it's because of the fire, because I've been in poor health and have a very withdrawn personality, so I haven't been able to be adopted in a welfare home."
“…… I see. ”
After Lin Xi finished speaking, Shen Yan was silent for a long time and sighed: "You are really a very strong girl. ”
"Do you want to do scar revision? I know girls love beauty, and such a big scar is for you..."
"Thank you, Brother Yan," Lin Xi thanked sincerely, "I know that scar is ugly and scary, but I still want to keep it." ”
"After that fire, it was as if my life before I was eight years old was wiped out. Nothing left of me except the memories in my head. ”
"That scar... Think of it as a memento of my life before I was eight years old. Remembering my parents, remembering my past. ”
"And it's an incentive. After all, I have experienced such a scene at a young age, what are I afraid of in the future? ”
Lin Xi laughed, although the smile in her eyes was tinged with sadness, her words still moved Shen Yan a little.
In his opinion, it is really rare that Lin Xi has experienced so much pain, but his current personality is still optimistic and positive.
"It's all over," Shen Yan paused, and suddenly asked Lin Xi, "You and Achen... What's going on now? ”
“… Me and Mr. Fu? Lin Xi was stunned.
"I'm his friend, and I know the agreement between you, but I talked to you today, and I still want to tell you."
"Achen, he loves Gu Zhiqu very much, and he has loved it for many years. He's a very charismatic guy, and you're living with him now, if you..."
"Brother Yan wants to say, I stay with Mr. Fu every day, if I fall in love with him, and Miss Gu comes back in the future, I will be embarrassed and miserable."
Shen Yan paused, and just said silently: "If you want to end this relationship and return to a normal life, I can help you go and talk to Achen." ”
"What he did was wrong," Shen Yan said seriously, "You are a very good girl, you don't need to be anyone's stand-in, you are you." ”
“… No, it won't. ”
"Won't anything?" Shen Yan asked.
"I won't fall in love with Mr. Fu." Lin Xi bowed his head and said, "... It's just a deal, I just want money. ”
“……”
Hearing Lin Xi's words, Fu Jingchen outside the door paused.
