Because the house is not renovated, there is only a light bulb with a very low wattage installed on the roof, and you can only barely see when you open it.

Meng Xiao was a little hungry, and wanted to get up to buy something to eat, only to remember that he didn't even have a mobile phone.

But she really didn't want to go back to see Yang Yi, so she had to sit back where she was.

There was a muffled knock at the door, rhythmic, in groups of three.

There are two families on this floor, both of which are rough houses and no one lives in them, it shouldn't be that they knocked on the wrong door, Meng Xiao got up and saw an unexpected face from the cat's eye.

He was dressed in a well-fitting black suit, and the glasses on his face covered his eyes, only the corners of his lips were stretched into a cold arc.

Xie Li stood outside the door with a lunch box.

When she opened the door, she shook the lunch box in her hand and smiled, "I don't think you have eaten, well, dinner." ”

His tone was doting, like a little girlfriend who was coaxing a temper, but Meng Xiao had a chill down his spine, feeling that he was stuck in his throat.

"Mr. Xie, why are you here?" His glasses refracted white light, and he smiled maliciously like a Sven scum.

"Follow you." Xie Li didn't hide it, and said: "Seeing that you haven't come out for so long, I estimate the time to send you warmth." ”

He didn't feel unfamiliar at all, and took a step in front of her, Meng Xiao subconsciously avoided it, and Xie Li walked into the house like this, and even closed the door quietly.

The house was not decorated, and Xie Li had no intention of changing his shoes, so he took out a pair of slippers from the bag and gave them to Meng Xiao, saying, "The cement floor is not suitable for bare feet, change to a pair of slippers." ”

After entering the house, Meng Xiao was barefoot, the pair of high heels with W as the price unit, one heel was scrapped, and she had to walk barefoot inside.

The slippers were made of very bright plastic, with ugly HelloKitty printed on them in fluorescent pink, the print quality was very poor, and HelloKitty's eyes and nose were misaligned.

The quality is not good, there is a smell of plastic, and you don't have to bend down to smell it.

Being able to find such a low slipper in Haishi, Meng Xiao sighed that the magic power of the thank you gift was vast.

But this is not the time to be picky, she has walked too much in high heels, the blisters on her feet are all broken, and several bleeds are solidified on her feet, compared to slippers, her feet are terrifying.

"Thank you, I'll transfer the money to you tomorrow." Meng Xiao put on his shoes and thanked him.

"Okay, 12." Xie Li didn't refuse, and said with a smile: "However, you have to agree to my friend request first." ”

"Mr. Xie, about WeChat......" As soon as he mentioned WeChat, she remembered the news he told her, Meng Xiao still couldn't understand the meaning of the thanks.

"Thank you, I said, it's a thank you." This thank-you gift is not a thank-you gift, Xie Li brought the lunch box, which contained six tempting xiaolongbaozi, which seemed to have been bought in a nearby shop.

“……？” Meng Xiao didn't understand.

"You little girl...... It's really loved. However, a person who runs away from home is inexperienced, so don't be blind and willful without a dime, and it is dangerous to run outside at night. Xie Li felt that she was cute and cute, and reached out to touch the top of her head, but Meng Xiao avoided her.

"Mr. Xie, you respect yourself."

His too casual movements, not offensive and frivolous, always made her feel that they had known each other for several years, but Meng Xiao was sure that she didn't know Xie Li, and if she knew someone with such an identity, she would not be poor and helpless.

"I have a husband, and so do you...... I'm going to marry your fiancée soon. Next month is his wedding with Zhao Jingyan, and Meng Xiao also received their invitations.

"I don't know what you're trying to do with you, but I want you to consider who you are and don't embarrass each other."

Thinking about what he said about following her all the time, Meng Xiao felt suffocated, she didn't even notice it.

The combination of Xie Li and Zhao Jingyan is not so dreamy.

The difference between sister and brother is almost five years old, Xie Li was born in an ordinary way, and he was the fast son-in-law of the Zhao family, and he borrowed the power of Zhao Jingyan's family to have his current status.

The Zhao family had a big incident twenty years ago, and Zhao Jingyan taboo men are known to play this kind of thing, even if it is a joke, they can't make it in front of her, so Xie Li should take care of Zhao Jingyan and not mess around.

"Husband? Yang Yi? But you can't control him, are you sure that you are husband and wife, subordinate to a passive relationship? Xie Li was not annoyed, did not mention his marriage to Zhao Jingyan at all, and said with a smile: "He doesn't even tell you what happened yesterday, as long as you listen to him and become an obedient Mrs. Yang." ”

What he said was Wu Yue's business, and Meng Xiao knew.

"That's also our husband and wife's business, and it has nothing to do with you, an outsider." Meng Xiao was not interested in talking to him more.

"Since it's a husband and wife affair, why did you use your own savings to compensate Wu Yue? What do you mean when you're here right now, and you don't come home so late? Xie Li picked up a bun and took a bite, the bun was still hot and the juice inside overflowed, which was quite delicious.

"Xiaoxiao, are you willing to live like this for the rest of your life? Being scolded by others, but your husband doesn't get angry for you? ”

"What's the matter with you? Mr. Xie, you seem to have spoken a little deeper, and you have crossed the line. "A few years older than her doesn't mean he's qualified to talk about her, they have nothing to do with each other, and it's not his turn to guide her marriage here.

"Of course it's my business." Xie Li finished eating the bun in his hand, took out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe off the oil stains on it, unbuttoned the suit, took out a piece of paper from the pocket and gave it to Meng Xiao, and said, "Long time no see, little sister." ”

……

This was an accident many years ago, the father took his son to fish, the son ran into the river and drowned, the father jumped in to save his son, and the father and son both drowned.

Fortunately, the female workers who passed by nearby acted bravely and jumped down to save their son, so that his son could survive.

When I went down to save my father, the female workers didn't come up.

At that time, her youngest daughter was still sitting on the back seat of her bicycle eating lollipops, waiting for her mother to come home with her.

"You were eating lychee-flavored lollipops at that time, I remember it very well." Xie Li recalled that he was twelve years old at the time and remembered more things than she did.

In Meng Xiao's hand was the old newspaper that commended the award for righteousness and courage that year, which was cut out by Xie Li and preserved very well.

"Are you ......?" Meng Xiao was unsure and asked, "That person's son?" ”

After all these years, her mother's matter was mentioned again, and there was no turmoil in her heart, but the "repayer" in front of her made her somewhat surprised.

Xie Li nodded: "I didn't intend to bother you, fate let us meet in this situation." ”

She is married, and he is about to get married.

Meng Xiao understands this, and he is not a brainless retard, even if he has the heart to repay him, he will not pursue the same rotten stalk as Yang Yi that "the grace of saving lives cannot be repaid, only with his body".

With the status of thanks, Meng Xiao is not worthy.

He said that he didn't want to disturb her, which could only mean that he had known who she was for a long time, and it was very likely that he didn't look down on her identity as a poor student before, and he was afraid that she would hide it all the time.

"And what do you want to do now?" Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief.

"The little girl is smart, but she's too simple." Xie Li praised: "It's only been two days since you married into a wealthy family, and you were forced to go back to your 'mother's family', your life must be difficult, I think it is necessary for us to join forces in order to improve our status." It just so happens that I need money, and you need someone to give you ideas. ”

For example, today, he sent a WeChat message asking her to release Wu Yue's voice, and then asked her to go to see Wu Yue no matter what, and not to ask Wu Yue about pushing her at the staircase.

Meng Xiao did so, but the effect was minimal.

"First of all, I didn't receive the results I wanted, and Wu Yue was still very proud. Secondly, I don't have any money, the Yang family only gave me Yang Yi's salary card, and that money is not worth your brains to find me. Xie Li's identity is sensitive, money and power can't be both, she understands what he means, and doesn't believe the reason for looking for her.

"What's more, there is love between me and my husband, not what you think." Meng Xiao emphasized that she and Yang Yi had a relationship, and they went around in a big circle, and coming to her so secretly was definitely not as simple as recognizing their relatives.

On behalf of the Zhao family, he wanted to provoke the feelings between Yang Yi and her, and his purpose was not pure.

"Just take it as my life-saving kindness back then, Meng Xiao, you won't harm you if you listen to me." Meng Xiao was too strong, and Xie Li sighed: "The Yang family is united, you just went, and the Yang family is soft-spoken, for the sake of today, you must have your own foundation, and you will raise your head to be a man in the future." ”

"Think about the words you were insulted for, think about how those people laughed at you behind your back, and then think about the difference between other people's husbands and Yang Yi." Xie Li continued to provoke Meng Xiao and said, "Meng Xiao, we are the same kind of people. ”

Money, power.

In the first half of his life, Meng Xiao was controlled by money and suffered, but just got better, and was oppressed by power to survive.

The moment Yang Yi appeared at her house, she vowed that she could no longer let these two things hold her throat and have nowhere to survive.
