"Dong Dong …" Knock knock * The knocking sound came from outside, Li Xi turned her head and walked away from Ling Yushi's chest, standing straight.
"Come in!" Ling Yushi's voice was still as cold as ice, and the warmth in his black eyes disappeared without a trace, once again returning to his paralyzed state.
"CEO, the Long Family people have come to congratulate us." The bodyguard lowered his voice as he glanced at the ice-cold Ling Yushi.
Ling Yushi frowned as he glanced at the smiling Li Xi. I'll go out for a bit. "
"Mm. Alright."
Looking at Ling Yushi's back, Li Xi breathed a sigh of relief. She slowly sat on the bed and her eyes dimmed once again.
Her heart had been completely shattered by the truth. In this world, who else could she trust?
After half an hour, maybe because she was too busy drinking that she forgot to eat, Li Xi's stomach was currently rumbling. Slowly straightening her body, Li Xi headed straight for the door with small steps. His distinct small hands lightly landed on the heavy metal global handlebars, turning slightly as they opened up a small gap.
The dim yellow light was ambiguous, and the corridor was quiet.
Not far away, there was a faint sound of something shattering, which made Li Xi stick her head out curiously.
At the other end of the corridor were two figures, one tall and one short, looking vaguely familiar.
"No, I don't want to!" The slightly nasal voice of the girl vaguely sounded out, causing Li Xi's heart to thump heavily.
Looking at the two figures who were just alone in the distance interweaving together, Li Xi tiptoed and walked towards the two people at the end of the corridor.
"Why!? "Why?!" The closer they walked, the more they could hear Gu Wei's plaintive voice. Even Li Xi was able to imagine Gu Wei's pitiful appearance right now. Exactly what is wrong with me! "
From start to end, there was no sound of another person's voice, but when he looked at the tall figure that was once again distinct, Li Xi's eyes stung.
"I love you. Do you know that I really do?"
Gu Wei raised her tear-stained little face, and once again wrapped her arms around Ling Yushi's neck, kissing him with her red lips. She was unwilling, unwilling to be eliminated like this.
And only when her body was once again coldly pushed aside, did Gu Wei slowly open her eyes as tears fell down one by one.
"Miss Gu is drunk?"
Li Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, and a smile that was like flowers hung on her beautiful face.
The two people opposite of him turned their gazes towards Li Xi at the same time.
Gu Wei's face turned red and white, looking somewhat ugly to behold.
Li Xi, on the other hand, kept Gu Wei's expression with a smile and slowly walked to Ling Yushi's side. "Dearest, Miss Gu drank too much. Send someone to take her back."
"No, it's fine, I can."
Gu Wei lowered her head, not daring to meet Li Xi's gentle eyes.
However, Li Xi walked forward and gently held both of Gu Wei's hands, as elegant as ever. How can I not worry when you're already so drunk? You don't even recognize anyone anymore, so there's no need to be courteous. "
"I'll have the driver wait for you downstairs." Ling Yushi put his hands in his pockets; there was not a single ripple in his eyes.
Gu Wei slightly raised her head, glanced at Ling Yushi, and saw that she still felt the ice-cold chill.
"I'll walk you down and see you get on the car. Only then will I feel at ease." Li Xi raised her signature smile again, and supported Gu Wei as they slowly walked towards the stairs.
The next day
Sitting in her office, Li Xi stretched her back.
"Li Xi, thank you for begging for mercy in front of the boss that day." A clean and crisp Amy, now that she had spoken these few words in a broken tone, her voice was still soft.
Li Xi only smiled faintly, "Sister Amy didn't do anything wrong in the first place. On the other hand, if I were to implicate you because of the small matter of delivering documents, I would really be embarrassed."
Looking at Li Xi, Amy was stunned.
Li Xi still maintained her indifferent smile, and clearly understood why Amy was so shocked.
In the past, she was so foolish that it was even harder to take a detour than kill her. The current her was actually trying to curry favor from the side, and Li Xi was also very clear on what she was doing. It was not a bad thing to rope in a person who had followed Ling Yushi for so many years, so he might be able to find some unexpected answers.
Perhaps he knew what had happened between his sister and Ling Yushi.
"Aiyo, it really is the narrow path between enemies!" Before Amy could recover her wits, Su Wan walked in with a crocodile striped bag, wearing a sexy miniskirt, and a smile on her face.
The abnormal Su Wan first stunned Amy, but after a while, she once again recovered her competence in work.
"Seeing Su Wan walk in, a faint smile formed on Li Xi's face. Do you have time? How about a cup of coffee? "
Hearing Li Xi's words, the corner of Su Wan's mouth raised into a faint smile. She put her bag under her arm and walked over to Li Xi's side. It's better if I invite you. "
Li Xi stood up with a faint smile and followed Su Wan out of the office.
And the two of them, on the other hand, made Amy even more shocked.
Amy who did not know what was going on could only retract her train of thoughts and turn back to her work.
Coffee Shop
The room had a faint bamboo fragrance to it and was decorated elegantly. Every place in the room was like a handicraft.
Li Xi slowly lifted her white coffee cup, and her eyes brightened as she looked at the continuously rising white smoke. Last night, Gu Wei confessed to Ling Yushi when she was drunk, and even kissed him. "
It was obvious that Su Wan's hand that was holding the coffee cup trembled a little, but she slowly moved the coffee cup to her bright red lips a little later. Bitch! "
"She is Ling Yushi's childhood sweetheart after all. Do you think she doesn't have any feelings for Ling Yushi? So many years, I think... You are just a pawn in Gu Wei's hands that can help her put down those obstacles. " Li Xi's voice did not carry much emotion, but it made Su Wan's heart surge with emotions.
Her every word was a point that caused Su Wan to instantly be enraged.
Seeing Su Wan's small hands tightly grabbing the cup, Li Xi's eyes rippled.
"The bamboo table has five fingers, which are like bamboo shoots, knocking on it leisurely." But don't worry, I won't give Gu Wei the chance to get close to Ling Yushi. "
Su Wan's small face, which was as pale as paper, began to relax a little as Li Xi's eyes.
"Oh, what about you?" After Su Wan slightly linked the anger in her heart, she cast a sharp gaze at Li Xi's little face that was like a peach petal at the beginning of March. "Last night, you and Ling Yushi …"
Su Wan's small eyes were still staring at Li Xi's little face.
Li Xi shrugged her shoulders, the teasing in her eyes growing more and more.
"We're husband and wife, do you think he might …" "But don't worry, I don't have any love for Ling Yushi. He has his reasons for marrying me, and if I achieve my goal, I will leave this place unscathed."
In the face of Li Xi's words, Su Wan did not answer at all.
At this time, to Su Wan, she couldn't see through this woman.
"I didn't just ask you out today." Li Xi said softly as she looked at the red car that slowly stopped outside.
Su Wan pulled her thoughts back together, and followed Li Xi's eyes and looked into the distance.
At a glance, Su Wan recognized that it was Gu Wei's car.
"You made an appointment with him!"
"Hmm, just in time to get in touch with her." Li Xi replied softly. Then, she urgently needed to drink her own coffee as if nothing had happened. Her small eyes, however, reflected the expression on Su Wan's face, which made her want to kill Gu Wei.
However, Li Xi was secretly laughing in her heart. She did not simply invite them to tea, she wanted to see the battle between Gu Wei and herself.
She wanted to repay all that she owed her sister back then, even Chu Tian.
"Li Xi!" Gu Wei always had an elegant face, but her wavy head was slightly handsome and her clothes were always as gentle as water.
"Seeing Su Wan opposite of him, Gu Wei was startled, but that elegant smile of her did not falter in the slightest. Su Wan is here too. "
"Right." Su Wan unhappily agreed, then turned her little face to the side.
In Li Xi's opinion, this fit Su Wan's straightforward personality too well.
But when Gu Wei saw this, her face was at a loss and she did not know what had happened.
"Gu Wei, sit, what happened yesterday …"
"Li Xi, I'm sorry." Gu Wei immediately turned her head to stop Li Xi from speaking. Gu Wei walked forward and grabbed onto Li Xi's small hand, her eyes filled with pure emotions, as though a child who had done something wrong. I, I was drunk last night, you, don't mind me. "
"Oh, nothing. It's just a kiss from my family's Ling Yuxiao. I won't be jealous, and I believe in you. " The corner of Li Xi's mouth raised slightly, and then gave a light smile.
However, Li Xi had a hundred percent doubt of the sincerity on Gu Wei's face.
"Last night, last night you really put down your usual pure and innocent attitude." Su Wan, who was sitting at the side, replied unhappily, and turned around to give Gu Wei a supercilious look.
Gu Wei was a little embarrassed, even if sshe suffered, he could only forcefully swallow it down.
"Li Xi, why did you call me here today?" Gu Wei purposely changed the topic. She understood Su Wan's personality too well.
The Su Clan is not to be trifled with …
"Oh, I wanted to tell you. Three years ago, I was in a car accident and I found some clues." Li Xi raised her small face and looked at Gu Wei and Su Wan.
However, the faces of the two of them instantly turned as pale as paper. A few seconds later, Gu Wei said guiltily with a wrinkled smile on his face, "Oh, yes, what is it? Let's listen too."
Looking at Gu Wei, Li Xi's watery eyes flashed with coldness, and then disappeared without a trace.
"I heard that the driver of the car that escaped three years ago was a woman. Someone provided me with some blurry photos, but I think I've known her before, so I'm looking for that girl." Li Xi purposely did not say it out loud, not only because she wanted to cover her identity, but also because she wanted to see Gu Wei's next move.
She knew that as long as there was even the slightest bit of wind, Gu Wei would immediately clear everything that was in danger to her.
Beneath the table, Gu Wei's small hands were tightly made up, but her petite face was still carrying a light smile.
"Let's take a look at the photo. We'll identify it as well." Gu Wei had a relaxed expression, but Li Xi shrugged her shoulders.
"Okay, next time then." Li Xi secretly smiled, then raised her own coffee and looked at the faint fear on Gu Wei's face, yet Li Xi snorted coldly in her heart.
