"How are you?" When I saw the wounds on his body, I was actually very excited. Yesterday, when I lied on Cheng Ruojun's shoulder and pretended to look like a little white rabbit that was scared, it was all just an act.
"Happy?" Xiao Li said with a smile, his mouth was also injured, and when he said that, he happened to pull the corner of his mouth, causing a wound, he took a deep breath and immediately stopped talking.
I observed Xiao Li's expression. He was actually similar to me, but in the past I had never been willing to face desire head on, always dodging and pretending to be noble. Actually, if I didn't love power or money, why would I marry Cheng Ruojun.
"Did you have a terrible time yesterday?" I said, "It's not easy to get out of Cheng Ruojun's house alive. Besides, you already have no way to work right now, so maybe you don't have a place to stay."
I twitched my nose and said sarcastically, "Speaking of which, you haven't showered since yesterday right? You still smell like a man, you know what I'm talking about right?"
Xiao Li's face revealed an expression of humiliation, as he took a deep breath and finally said, "Why did you call me here? If you're just trying to humiliate me, then I'll leave first. " He looked like he was enduring humiliation. Who would have thought that yesterday, when I was kneeling on the ground and begging him, it would become him begging me.
I know what you're thinking. You're not bad looking, your figure is not bad, and your brain is also smart, so you probably graduated from a famous university, and you've probably done a few serious jobs before, but no matter how hard you work, you can't compare to someone who can be reborn. You're very unsatisfied, even though this world is so unfair, it's still hard for people to accept.
I tried my best to say these words calmly. I understand Xiao Li, my family, and my comparison with Tao Man. I deeply understand this logic.
In fact, according to my birth, being able to marry to Cheng Ruojun could already be considered as having smoke rising from the grave of my ancestors. But I am not willing to accept it, I still want to have more.
I clenched my hands and looked straight at Xiao Li.
Xiao Li also turned his head to look at me. His eyes were complicated, and I could clearly see the tears in his eyes, this is the first time I saw his true emotions, my heart felt a little sad, no one wanted me to live like this, Xiao Li didn't want to, I also didn't want to, but what can we do, heaven gave us a rotten card, we could only use all kinds of methods to fight.
Cheng Ruojun and Tao Man will not understand us, their so-called troubles can also be considered luxurious troubles for me.
"Xiao Li, you want power, right?" "I want it too."
Xiao Li looked at me but did not say a word, but the emotions in his eyes gradually faded. I saw him being on guard, and then he said, "Let me think."
"Alright." I replied, then took out a stack of money from my bag and handed it over to Xiao Li, "I know you're short on money right now, but you should take these first."
He looked at me and quietly took the money.
I planned to leave this place, but after taking just two steps, I heard Xiao Li's voice from behind me. He asked me, "How do I contact you in the future?"
I looked back at him and smiled. "You're smart enough to know what to do."
After Xiao Li heard what I said, he laughed, and his laughter was filled with helplessness and ease. This was the real him, the real him is much more lovable than the one who was flattered by that rich woman.
I nodded my head and said, "Xiao Li, there will be a day when we will trample all of them under our feet."
Xiao Li laughed again, as if what I said was an interesting joke, but as he laughed, his tears started to fall.
I quickly left the place. Looking at Xiao Li, I felt very sad in my heart.
I didn't leave the mall right away, but went for a walk in case someone started to investigate me.
I bought a belt and watch for Cheng Ruojun, using the credit card that Cheng Ruojun gave me. I think the bill will be sent to Cheng Ruojun, he'll see that I bought something for him.
I'm going to be a mature wife now, and I won't love him as much as I used to. But Cheng Ruojun didn't understand, with that childish me in the past, who used such a clumsy way to love him, I had truly given my heart to him.
But he didn't understand.
I sat on the resting chair and called Li Zhen. I wanted to trust Li Zhen, but there was a voice in my heart saying, Li Zhen is too naive, she only sees the surface of people, she is not trustworthy, but since her family's factory is still half mine, I decided to give her a chance.
The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up. I was about to hang up, but then I heard Li Zhen's tired voice.
"Li Zhen, what's wrong?" I asked, concerned.
Li Zhen hesitated for a moment before saying: "Sorry, something happened in the factory just now, I didn't hear your phone call."
Her voice was not loud. It sounded very careful. Initially, I did not feel that there was anything wrong with Li Zhen's voice, but after I heard Li Zhen's explanation, I suddenly felt that she had already heard the phone call. The reason she did not pick up the phone was because she was hesitating, or perhaps she was waiting for me to hang up on her.
I decided to go over this issue quickly, but I still decided to be careful of Li Zhen in the future. At the same time, I couldn't place all my hopes on Li Zhen either.
"Why didn't you come when I said you would come find me?" I don't want Li Zhen to hear the emotions behind my words. I am really disappointed in Li Zhen, but I don't want to make it too obvious, I still need her for now.
Li Zhen hesitated for a while before saying, "Sorry, I was planning to go last time, but something suddenly happened, so …"
"So you called your brother?" I asked her, my tone starting to get bad.
