Around 7 PM, Ling Qiao finally returned to his office. Looking at the cold fast food on the tea table, he reproached, "You're not eating?"
Shu Shu seemed to be in a daze, she didn't hear him enter at all. When he asked, she was actually shocked. She turned around and said, "I can't eat."
"If you can't eat, you won't eat? You're not in much better shape. " He walked to the window sill and put his arms around her, resting his chin on her shoulder. "You're getting more and more disobedient."
It was pitch black outside, and the two of them were reflected in the glass. Seeing this scene, Shu Shu felt extremely warm, as if she was relying more and more on him. However, her heart was empty and not at ease.
Calm down and be a good Mrs. Ling for a few days.
What was the meaning of these words of Tang and Qing's?
"Hubby, you didn't eat either, right? "Then let's eat together, I want to eat steamed cinnamon fish."
Ling Qiao hugged her tightly, seemingly not wanting to let go. "Don't you want to ask the result of our discussion?"
Shu shook her head. "It's good as long as you guys have an agreement. It doesn't matter to me."
"Then do you want to know who leaked the news first?"
Shu Shu's heart tightened. She turned around and asked, "Who is it?"
Ling Qiao gently touched her cheek. Her eyelashes were wet, and she was crying again, for the sake of her mother. At this moment, telling her that she would definitely be even more heartbroken.
"Who is it? "Tell me quickly!"
Ling Qiao pinched her little nose, "I'm still investigating, saying that there are some clues, but they are very complicated. I'll tell you when I find them …" "Let's go and eat steamed cinnamon fish."
At the Tang Clan, Chen Yong Hua was holding a bowl of soup that was not too hot as he knocked on his daughter's door, "Qingqing, mom made you some bone soup. Drink some."
A tired voice came from inside, "Mom, let's drink again tomorrow. I'm so tired, I want to sleep."
"Alright, I'll have the servants heat it up. If you need anything, just call me."
"Got it."
Tang Thirty-Six sat in a wheelchair, leaning against the desk as he looked at the old photos. He didn't want anyone to disturb him.
The wind chime that she liked hung on the windowsill, the crystal vase that she liked was on the table, and on the makeup table, there was even the diamond ring that Ling Qiao once proposed to him.
Each and every one of these things were her and Ling Qiao's memories. It was so real, so deep, it seemed to be from yesterday.
Looking at those photographs, the happiness from the past welled up in his heart. Ling Qiao half knelt on the ground, holding up the ring as he said to her, "Good, I love you. Marry me."
At that moment, there were photos as evidence, and the Chen family was the witness.
"Hello, cousin, it's me."
"Qingqing, what's the matter this late?" Chen Jiaxian was still working overtime at the television station. Recently, he had a headache due to Shu Shu's incident.
"Cousin, Ling Qiao still doesn't know why I left him that year, right?"
"This... He always thought you were doing it for ballet. "
"I think it's time to tell him that I'm ready."
Chen Jiqian hesitated, looking at the picture of ShuShu on the computer screen, "Qingqing, so what if I tell him? It will only increase his sense of guilt. He's married. "
"No, tell him that I can't force him to leave. I left for his own good. He will definitely return to my side."
"But, what about Shu Shu? She's innocent. "
"Cousin, she isn't innocent at all. If it weren't for the fact that she joined up with the Liu family to deceive us, Ling Qiao wouldn't have gotten married. He never forgot about me, you know that."
This was something that Chen Jiaxian was very clear about. Looking at Ou Sha, she was like a replica of Tang Shuiqing, "After the new year, find an appropriate opportunity to tell him. Don't worry, I won't be able to beat him in this period of time."
"Alright."
After hanging up the phone, Tang Xueqing silently picked up the photo. It was taken by Chen Jiaxian, and Ling Qiao was kneeling on one knee, proposing to her.
I love you. Marry me.
I will.
Looking at the time, it was already 10: 00 PM. Chen Jia Qian switched off the computer, tidied up the documents on the table and prepared to get off work.
He walked out of the office in his down jacket and car keys.
There was a security guard on night shift at the television station. When he saw that it was the deputy station head's car, he hurriedly opened the door.
As Chen Jia Qian drove out of the television station, he saw a familiar car by the side of the road. It was Shen Xiaoxuan's car. That dazzling red color was very obvious even at night.
"Miss Shen, it's already so late, is there anything you need at my television station's entrance?"
"If I say that I'm waiting for you, would Station Head Chen be willing to have a drink with me?"
So he had come specially to wait for him. Chen Jiaxi smiled elegantly, "Of course I am willing. I know there is a good restaurant, there won't be any reporters. Follow me."
"Alright."
If there were to be another scandal at this critical juncture, then the pressure on the television station would be even greater. It was best to be careful.
Chen Jia Qian's car led the way, and Shen Xiaoxuan followed closely behind.
She wore a short black down jacket, a black frame and a peaked cap. Compared to the popular singers who took the sexy route in front of the camera, her current attire was more suitable for her.
"Open a bottle of red wine?"
Shen Xiaoxuan shook her head, "My stomach is not feeling well, I don't want to drink anymore."
"Who invited me to have a drink just now?" Looking at her awkward expression, Chen Jiaxi smiled, "Such a cold day and it's so late, there must be something wrong with you waiting, right?"
Shen Xiaoxuan took off her down jacket, peaked her cap and black frame, and said straightforwardly, "The music awards ceremony will start in a few days' time. I'm determined to win this award for new singers, so I hope that the deputy station head can be magnanimous and stop pursuing the matter of Shu Shu. I'm willing to do anything you want me to do as long as you can promise me." As she said that, Shen Xiaoxuan reached out to grab Chen Jia Qian's hand, and even teasingly hooked onto the back of his hand.
Chen Jiaxi retracted his hand and said with a smile, "I don't know what Miss Shen is talking about."
Shen Xiaoxuan was helpless. She knew that Chen Jia Qian was playing dumb, but she had no choice but to touch this nail. She took out a room card from her pocket and said: "Do you understand now?"
Chen Jiaxian took the card and smiled even wider. "Miss Shen, what you did was bad …" How could he not understand the meaning behind Shen Xiaoxuan's words? As someone with a high position and a bachelor, there were naturally many women who came looking for him, and there were naturally many celebrities like Shen Xiaoxuan.
Her body had long been prepared to offer it up, the first one being Zhu Yixiang. However, she was really scared at the time, she beat up Shu Shu to ask for help, Shu Shu was also loyal enough to her, and saved her from the jaws of death. Back then, she didn't know anything, but fortunately, she wasn't forcibly taken over by Zhu Yixiang. Not long after, Zhu Yixiang was fired by Ling Bai's record, which was a little strange.
Later on, the scandal with Ling Qiao gave her a taste of popularity. Just the scandal alone was enough to make her famous, and she had to bow his head to reality.
"Deputy Station Head Chen, am I not clear enough?" "You already found out that I leaked ShuShu's information to Weekly, what are you pretending for?!" Shen Xiaoxuan felt as if she was a prostitute who had her clothes off while waiting for guests. Not only was being humiliated, she was even being despised.
However, she was willing to sacrifice her innocence for the sake of her own singing career. She had already given in to this filthy society. He was touched by the producer's leg and hugged by the sponsor's waist. All that was left of him was his lack of sleep.
Chen Jiqian handed the card back to her, "You keep it, I'm not good at giving it to people who can help you." He was well aware of how chaotic this circle was. It was as if he was the true leader of the drug industry and he would never be contaminated with drugs.
This was the first time she had taken the initiative to invite a man, but she was actually rejected. It has to be said that no matter how many wealthy merchants wanted her, she would always give them the opportunity to grind their teeth, and in the bottom of her heart, she still wanted to protect the last line of defense!
"There's no room for negotiation?"
Chen Jiaxian didn't say anything more to her, and sternly said, "You are her best friend, if she knew that you betrayed her, how much harm would she suffer? I want you to confess to her yourself. "
There was a look of regret on Shen Xiaoxuan's face. She was unwilling to accept it at that time, why was it that Shu Shu could marry Ling Qiao without doing anything? Why was it that she could not be even the tiniest bit closer to Ling Qiao?! My best friend, why isn't he willing to help her? This circle relied on relationships. Shu Shu had a big shot of the entertainment industry as a pillow person, but was unwilling to help her. She was envious and unwilling to help her.
He had been busy with advertising these past few days, so he could only sleep for two or three hours a day. Today, he had overheard Chen Jiaxian having dinner with the editor of Explosion Weekly, so he took half a day off because he was not feeling well. At three o'clock tomorrow, she was going to work again, to make up for all the work she had done.
"Yes, it was I who betrayed her. It was in a fit of anger that I told Explosive Weekly everything I knew. I told them all the reasons. "I never thought that it would cause such a huge commotion. I never thought that it would hurt so much."
Since she had already confessed everything, Chen Jiaxi no longer had to hide it from her. "Not only did this hurt Shu Shu, but it also hurt her mother. Her mother passed away."
"What did you say?" Shen Xiaoxuan's mind was buzzing. Her jealousy had actually caused the death of her innocent mother, and Shu Shu, wasn't she also innocent!?
Chen said lightly, "Her mother suffered a blow and her condition worsened. She died three days ago. Ling Qiao wanted me to keep this a secret for the time being, so as not to make her more upset. "But you know, if you want people to not know what they're doing, I can find out. Other media can also find out, and even if I help you keep your secret, other media will naturally reveal it."
Ling Qiao, you already know about this? Shen Xiaoxuan had thought that as long as Chen family Qian was willing to help her hide it, then this matter would fall to the bottom of the sea. She never thought that Ling Qiao would already know about this. Ling Qiao was her boss' boss.
What sort of room card did she give to Chen Jiaxi? It was simply too ironic.
"I know, I'm feeling a bit uncomfortable. Please excuse me." Shen Xiaoxuan got up and was about to leave, not even bothering to take the equipment at the side. She picked up her down jacket and walked a few steps, but then her body started floating lightly, her steps also started to falter, and in the next moment, she fell to the ground, her arm fiercely hitting the back of the chair beside her.
