Chapter 289: The Bitter Truth
Xiao Shuyun's gaffe also infected the people around her, and the senior managers of those companies stopped talking to each other, and their eyes focused on her face. Zhou Kejin's concern is even more palpable. He was 'forced' by Yang Lanting to come to this occasion, the purpose was to take the opportunity to get close to Xiao Shuyun, and the next plot was not in his hands.
Li Mengmeng, who was originally going to tell the truth, hesitated again when she heard Xiao Shuyun's tone change on the phone.
Xiao Shuyun couldn't hold her breath anymore, and she had a premonition that she was about to have a bad news of her own coming out of the other party's mouth, so she urged: "Say it quickly, don't let me be anxious..." No matter how cruel the fact is... I can hold it too..."
Yang Lanting saw that things had developed to this point, and before her daughter had fully explained it to Xiao Shuyun, she decisively waved her hand to everyone.
The managers understood that they were not suitable to listen to the privacy of the female boss here, so they signaled to leave.
Seeing this, Zhou Kejin also stood up, but was stopped by Yang Lanting with a look. He had no choice but to sit back stiffly.
At this time, Xiao Shuyun couldn't pay attention to these details at all, and her whole mind was drawn to the other end of the phone by Li Mengmeng.
"Mengmeng, why don't you speak, are you deliberately scaring me?"
Li Mengmeng finally relieved herself and took the opportunity to say: "I'm a little tricky... Just don't mind. ”
Xiao Shuyun's apricot eyes glared: "No! You're still in trouble! Don't tease my IQ. ”
As soon as Yang Lanting heard that her daughter was going to retreat, she blurted out angrily - "Mengmeng, what's the matter with you?" ”
When Li Mengmeng heard her mother's voice, her eyes suddenly lit up: "Mom, are you at home?" ”
In order to encourage her daughter, Yang Lanting had to admit: "Yes, I am with Shuyun." What exactly do you want to say to her? Don't let me be in a hurry. ”
Li Mengmeng felt that there was no room for maneuver, so she had to bite the bullet and say: "I'm in Qianxi now." ”
Xiao Shuyun felt a flash in her scalp: "You... With Xiaoguang? ”
"Yes... I'm sorry... We're married..."
Xiao Shuyun's face suddenly turned pale, and her lips trembled for a long time before she said-"Mengmeng, why are you so ignorant!" ”
Li Mengmeng only let out a wry smile in the face of Xiao Shuyun's blame: "Although I want to make the two of you reunite, he really can't leave me... And I... I can't do without him. ”
"Mengmeng, I know the feelings between the two of you, but you can only hurt him deeply by doing this. Don't forget, your physical condition can't last long. ”
"Sister Shuyun, this is all fake. I was trying to restore your confidence in life... I made this up... This white lie..."
Although Xiao Shuyun drank a lot of wine, her spirit was extremely excited at this moment: "What? Are you lying to me?? ”
"Yes, I don't really have a terminal illness at all, and you have to make up this white lie in order to fulfill it. But... I found out that I was wrong, because Brother Xiaoguang couldn't do without me at all. I've now joined their team as a health care practitioner. ”
Xiao Shuyun's eyes widened, but there was a bit of surprise in the sadness: "You... Are you really not sick? ”
"Sister Shuyun, the original diagnosis and my accidental fainting were fake, just to bring you hope."
"Silly girl, the first thing you brought me was despair. Do you know? I'm for you... How many times have you secretly cried... But on the surface, I want to appease you... For your feelings... I... I had to pick up my love for Xiaoguang..."
"Sister Shuyun, do you love Brother Xiaoguang to fulfill my wish?"
"Yes. I failed him before... I'm worried he'll be heartbroken when he loses you again... That's why..."
"Sister Shuyun... I'm sorry... I'm really ignorant... I hurt you deeply..."
Xiao Shuyun is worthy of being a woman who has experienced the scene, and she maintains a generous attitude at this time: "Forget it." Now it's finally all in place. However, I hate you so much that you don't notify me of your marriage. Are you worried that I won't be able to think about it? ”
"Sister Shuyun, I know that you are a strong woman, even if there is more suffering in your heart, you will bear it alone."
"Meng Meng, as a sister, I... Now I just want to share your joy... Please leave all your worries behind and do what you like with peace of mind. I will bless you. ”
"Sister Shuyun... Thank you... Please cherish it. ”
Xiao Shuyun finally couldn't hold it anymore, and when she hung up the phone, she fainted and slammed her head on the corner of the table.
Yang Lanting had always been wary of her emotions getting out of control, and when she heard what she had just covered up, her heart had just calmed down a little, and she was shocked by her next move.
"Shuyun! What happened to you? ”
Because she didn't have time to help her, she could only feel hugging her when the other party fell on the corner of the table to prevent her delicate body from continuing to slide down.
Zhou Kejin on the other side was a little stunned, and he was a little overwhelmed when he witnessed this scene.
Yang Lanting couldn't move Xiao Shuyun a little, so he had to ask him for help: "Xiao Zhou, what are you still doing in a daze?" Come and help me! ”
Zhou Kejin was stunned, left his hands to help, and straightened Xiao Shuyun's body.
"Shuyun, wake up!"
Xiao Shuyun finally slowly raised her eyelids under the call of Yang Lanting and Zhou Kejin in shifts, and smiled apologetically at Yang Lanting: "I'm fine... Just drunk high... Can you send me home? ”
Yang Lanting hurriedly glanced at Zhou Kejin: "Xiao Zhou, hurry up and take Shuyun home." ”
Zhou Kejin was stunned: "You... Let me hold her? ”
"Isn't that possible? You are a big man, do you need an old lady of mine to do such a hard work? ”
Zhou Kejin was embarrassed to glance at Xiao Shuyun, who had turned into a sluggish spirit, and finally made a brave move.
Xiao Shuyun's mind is still clear, but her body is completely involuntary, although there is some resistance, it is just a thought. When he was held in his arms, he quickly floated in mid-air, and simply used such a dreamy scene to anesthetize his nerves.
When she felt that she had fallen out of the clouds and fog, and everything had settled, she had already collapsed on the sofa in the mansion. When she was clear about the scene in front of her again, it was the two faces of Yang Lanting and Zhou Kejin that caught her eye.
Yang Lanting looked concerned: "Shuyun, are you better?" ”
Xiao Shuyun blinked in confusion: "How did I come back?" ”
"Of course, Xiao Zhou and I will send you back."
"Oh, thank you."
"Shuyun, what are you polite to us? We're all your relatives now. ”
"Loved ones?"
Xiao Shuyun's tears couldn't help but burst out of her eyes-
Zhou Kejin stared at his first love with a pair of pitying eyes, and his heart was almost broken when he saw her sadness.
"Shuyun, how are you feeling?"
Xiao Shuyun barely cheered up: "I'm fine... You're good to go. ”
Yang Lanting snorted: "You say stupid things, can he leave with confidence?" Gotta stay to take care of you! ”
"He... He takes care of me? ”
"Yes. Xiao Zhou is the man who feels most sorry for you at present. When you are most helpless, he is duty-bound. ”
Xiao Shuyun's nose was sour, the past instantly poured into her heart, and tears of remorse gushed out again-
Yang Lanting picked up a piece of tissue, but did not do it himself, but handed it to Zhou Kejin on the side.
Zhou Kejin hesitated for a moment before taking the tissue and tentatively wiping Xiao Shuyun's snot and tears.
Xiao Shuyun did not stop it, and accepted it like a docile sheep. At this moment, the little strength in her bones was instantly frozen by the fragile nerves, and the feelings of a little woman arose. At this moment, it is no longer possible to refuse what Zhou Kejin has done for her.
Yang Lanting only came out of that mansion in the second half of the night. Unable to get a taxi for a while, she simply strolls through the brightly lit streets and feels relaxed. Now Xiao Shuyun has been indulged in Zhou Kejin's care, which is the effect she has worked hard to achieve, and today's layout is undoubtedly a success. With a sense of pride and joy, she was about to dial her daughter's mobile phone-
Although she knew that calling her daughter at this time might disturb people's sleep, she couldn't suppress the good news anymore and had to report the good news to her daughter.
"Mom? How's Sook-woon's situation? ”
What surprised Yang Lanting was that her daughter not only answered the phone at the first time, but also asked impatiently. She was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood, since her daughter showdown with Shuyun, she has been hanging that heart, where can she still sleep?
"Mengmeng, didn't you sleep?"
"Alas, I don't know what's going on with Shuyun, where can I sleep?"
"Shuyun is very good. Didn't you hear it all? ”
"Well, don't I know her? She is a woman who wants to die to save face and suffer crimes. I knew that the more she said that, the more uncomfortable she would become. So, I've been waiting for your news. ”
"Gee, that's the case. Why didn't you call me? Causing you to stay awake all the time? ”
"I don't dare. Because I'm afraid to hear the news of her nervous breakdown..."
"You're such a stupid girl. Where is Shuyun as vulnerable as you say? ”
"Why did you call me when she's fine?"
Yang Lanting had no choice but to tell her daughter everything that happened.
"I see. That Mr. Zhou can really coax Shuyun well? ”
"Mengmeng, you can rest assured. Everything her mother did before was to make Shuyun feel that her first love was the man who cared about her the most in the world. Now, she and him are just like you and Xiaoguang, no one can do without anyone. ”
Li Mengmeng is full of gratitude at the moment: "Mom... Thank you... You've done a great job! ”
Yang Lanting let out a sigh: "As long as you are happy, I am willing to work hard." ”
At this moment, a man's voice suddenly came out of the mobile phone: "We also thank you for Shuyun." It was you who gave her a place of love again. ”
Yang Lanting couldn't help but be stunned: "Xiaoguang? ”
"It's me. Like Mengmeng, I have been eagerly waiting for your news. ”
Yang Lanting was on the phone with Liu Xiaoguang for the first time, although she felt a little sudden, she still couldn't hold back the doubts in her heart: "Did Mengmeng tell you everything?" ”
