Li Yan Chen's chest suddenly shrank, the pain made him furrow his brows.
"You used me to attract everyone's attention so you could obtain the girl's peace. Whether it's in front of the media or grandpa, she doesn't need to be harmed. This is your goal, right?"
Li Xiaochu took his silence as a tacit agreement. Even though her heart was drowned in pain, she still forced herself to smile.
"If that is the case, may I assume that this is my value? "When the time is right for you to use your talents to your advantage, Li Yan Chen, let's get a divorce."
Tired, an unprecedented tiredness swept over him at this moment.
Li Xiaochu suddenly saw the end of the road, she no longer had the courage to continue forward.
Then why not just help him out and let him go?
In this one-love marriage, she once again experienced the taste of despair.
But this time, she suddenly didn't want to fly into a frenzy.
Li Xiao Chu raised his eyes, looking straight at him in a rare way, not dodging at all.
With a certain determination, she repeated, "Li Yanchen, when the time comes, let's get a divorce."
Li Yan Chen was wrong, completely wrong!
In his memory, Li Xiaochu was a simple, extremely easy to control woman.
She was obedient, obedient, obedient to him.
There were many times when Li Yan Chen had disgraced her obedience, seeing it as a way for her to climb up to power.
More often than not, he thought she was stupid.
She did not have her own thoughts, did not have her own opinions. She let him do whatever he wanted with her life, but she still did not resist.
But at this moment, Li Yan Chen suddenly understood.
Li Xiao Chu was smart, unusually smart.
She clearly knew how to use him, so she found out his value. She took out the part where he used her as a condition to negotiate with him.
This time, she was no longer worthless.
She had enough leverage to negotiate a partnership with him.
And he had no reason to reject this cooperation, because in this world, there was no other candidate more suitable than Li Xiao Chu.
He needed a woman to attract the attention of everyone in the world, including his grandfather. Li Xiaochu was born for this role, even his soul fit him perfectly.
For the first time in his life, Li Yanchen, who had roamed the entire shopping mall but had never been defeated, had his hands gripped. He had never seen this woman in his eyes before.
Shame, unwillingness, anger.
All sorts of emotions rushed over, but they all turned into smoke.
In the end, he faced the woman in a new way, with a kind of interest that he did not even notice.
"Li Xiao Chu, well done."
He spat out these words in an indifferent manner, which was in line with his usual emotionless style.
Did he really agree to this?
Li Xiaoxi reacted quickly, and she forced out a smile, "Mr. Li, it's a pleasure to work with you."
Li Yan Chen did not reply. He narrowed his eyes as he watched her go upstairs, a dark glint slowly appearing in his eyes.
From start to finish, Li Xiao Chu had sensed that he was following her, so she hurried forward. In the blind spot, she quickly entered his room and slid down on the floor as if she was weak.
She had gambled too much, almost losing her future.
She wasn't sure if she would regret her decision today, but from a woman's point of view, she couldn't stand it.
She could no longer tolerate this dull marriage, especially when her husband was preoccupied with the preparation of another woman.
Li Xiaoxi thought, she used all of her dignity in exchange.
Grief, yet also had the feeling of dying a tragic death.
"It's true, I don't want to take a vacation anymore. Tell Director Li that I'll be going to the crew tomorrow."
After calming his mood, Li Xiaochu made the first call to Yang Zhen Zhen.
She was prepared to withdraw, but her brother's expensive medical fees still had to be provided. She had to make sure that even without the Li family, she would still be able to afford it.
And filming was her only choice.
Perhaps it wasn't entirely a bad thing for Li Yanchen to push her to the peak. At the very least, she could use this period of time to earn some money in a short period of time.
After finishing Yang Zhen's explanation, Li Xiaoxi hung up the phone. Just as he was about to take a good nap to recuperate and store his energy, a text message rang and entered his phone.
[Let's meet tomorrow noon at Triangle Bay.]
It was an unfamiliar number, unsigned.
Li Xiaochu stared at the message for a full minute as the image of the girl walking shoulder to shoulder with Li Yan Chen appeared in his mind.
It was as though he could sense it, causing his heart to slow down by half a beat.
She paused for a moment, then slowly typed out a "Ok" on the reply interface and clicked send.
Without any basis, Li Xiaochu had an intuition that the person who had sent this message was Jiang Luoluo.
As it turned out, a woman's sixth sense was always accurate. There was no scientific explanation for it.
On the second day, Li Xiaoxi took advantage of the break time to come to the agreed triangle bay. From afar, he saw the pretty back of the girl standing in front of the mall, which was exactly the same as the one on the news.
She was standing with her back to herself. Her black hair was tied behind her head, making her white dress look even more ethereal.
She seemed to be on the phone, and didn't notice Li Xiaoyu's arrival at all.
As he walked closer, he heard a soft and clear laugh, "Alright, I understand. Next time, I won't agree to her request. Okay, I will send you the coordinates."
Li Xiao Chu listened to what she said, and for some reason, he felt uneasy in his heart.
She saw Jiang Luoluo lower her head and click on the screen of her phone. From Li Xiaoyu's angle, she could only faintly make out the curve of her lips.
It was different from what he expected. There was a hint of iciness in it.
The unease in his heart grew bigger, Li Xiaochu cleared his throat and said: "Excuse me, you are …"
Li Xiao Chu looked at the woman who had turned around, his pupils narrowing in surprise.
"Xiao Ya?" She called out in a soft, uncertain voice.
A gentle breeze blew past, blowing the long hair of the person in front of him. The thumb mark on his right arm that had always been covered by the hair entered his eyes. Who else could it be other than his playmate Jiang Xiaoya?
"Long time no see, Little Chu." Jiang Luoluo didn't deny this, proving that she had recognized the right person.
Li Xiaoxi felt extremely complicated in his heart. Xiao Ya was her playmate when she was young. When she was sixteen, she suddenly disappeared along with her mother, and she cried bitterly for a few days.
Now that they had reunited, they should have been happy. However, the scene of her and Li Yanchen standing side by side suddenly popped up in their minds. Their happiness immediately turned sour.
"How have you been all these years? Back then, why did you and Auntie leave without saying goodbye?" This was the only topic Li Xiaochu could find after such a long time.
Jiang Luoluo did not answer, so the atmosphere was rather awkward.
They were originally good friends who had shared a bed and exchanged thoughts. But now, because of Li Yan Chen, their relationship had instantly become more subtle.
Jiang Xiao Ya, Jiang Luoluo.
