After considering it for a long time, Li Xi still felt that Chu Meng was right. If she never rejected Lan Yetian, then Brother Lan would forever be living in the past. Furthermore, the person she loved was Ling Yushi. Even if the person he loved wasn't her, she was already pregnant with his baby and nothing could change.
Li Xi did not want to be so selfish, she had always come to protect Lan Yetian.
Grabbing the phone, Li Xi dialed a number.
"Have you decided?" The other end of the phone was obviously filled with surprise, as if it had been waiting for a long time.
Li Xi nodded, and then said slowly, "Mn, arrange a time for us to meet. I will follow your request and reveal everything to Lan Yetian. I also hope that the Brother Lan can find the happiness that belongs to him, so I, Big Sister, will properly protect the Brother Lan, and ask for it from you. "
Hearing Li Xi's words, Chu Meng nodded her head.
After putting down the phone, the worry in Chu Meng's heart was finally relieved, and a faint smile appeared on the corners of her mouth.
"What happened? Why are you so happy?" Chen Luoxue who was at the side looked suspiciously at Chu Meng, and a light suddenly appeared in front of him, "Did Li Xi agree to it!?"
"Yes, she agreed to meet Lan Yetian." Chu Meng said happily, with a frown, it was hard to tell what he was thinking.
Chen Luoxue had also started to plan things out for herself. If Lan Yetian was together with Chu Meng right now, then her Chu Clan would have another helper, and she wouldn't need to be afraid of Ling Yushi's power. Hmph, in other words, at that time, he could still trample both Song Juan and her daughter under her feet. Thinking of Chen Luoxue, a smile appeared on her face.
And this smile caught Chu Meng's eye, causing her to furrow her brows." Mom, let me tell you, don't try to get anyone's attention! I won't be your pawn, and everything I do is for my own sake.
Chen Luoxue, who had regained her senses, just smiled, "What do you think I am? I am just happy that you can finally be together with Lan Yetian, and mother is also happy for you, it doesn't matter if you are unwilling to accept the family's business, since now you have Xia Nuan protecting you, I think I will not need you for a while."
Facing such a generous Chen Luoxue, Chu Meng found it hard to believe.
Chu Meng didn't have the mood to bother with Chen Luoxue anymore, and started to arrange for Li Xi and her meeting.
9 PM
Li Xi held onto her phone, her eyes shining with nervousness.
Ling Yushi, who was sitting next to Li Xi, raised her eyebrows and smiled slightly. From this day forward, you will belong to me forever. Have you made up your mind!? "
Hearing Ling Yushi's words, Li Xi frowned and did not say anything else. She was only relieved, but in her heart, she clearly understood, since she had already made her choice, then she would not regret it, furthermore, her heart had clearly told her who she had chosen, even if her path in the future was thorny, she would still walk on.
"I won't let you make a mistake in your bet!" The voice that was not cold nor hot attacked once again, and then a large embrace hugged Li Xi.
Sitting in the car and feeling Ling Yushi's warmth, Li Xi frowned. She felt that she was the safest person around him.
He was like a powerful shield, always giving himself the best hug and the warmest protection when he was at his most helpless.
"Let's go in." Li Xi took a deep breath and gently pushed Ling Yushi away.
Ling Yushi nodded and opened the car door. Seeing Li Xi slowly getting off the carriage, the corners of his mouth lifted into a smile that was almost non-existent. I'll wait here for you for an hour. If you don't come out, I'll drag you out.
Li Xi looked at Ling Yushi who was inside the carriage in shock, feeling the domineering tone in his voice, and his magnanimity.
She understood that Ling Yushi wanted to give her a little space. After tidying up her emotions, Li Xi lifted up her small voice and revealed her identity. She looked at the coffee shop not far away and slowly raised her small foot.
When she walked into the coffee shop, Li Xi glanced at her actions, seeing the actions of Chu Meng and Lan Yetian in the corner, Li Xi slowly walked forward.
"Regarding Li Xi's appearance, Lan Yetian frowned. You, why are you here? Is your body well? "
In the end, she had still asked questions about Lan Yetian's concern, but towards the concern that Lan Yetian had shown, Li Xi only smiled and passed a cup of latte to the waiter, asking for a cup of latte. I wonder if I could sit down with you and have a cup of coffee? "
Li Xi looked at him with a smile, but Lan Yetian did not say a word.
After he got drunk that time, he had always wanted to see her, but she never answered his call, much less gave him a chance to meet her. He didn't expect that she would appear in front of him today. Seeing her red face, Lan Yetian's heart that had been stuck in his throat slowly relaxed.
Looking at the cup of hot coffee in front of him, Li Xi slowly put her hand on the coffee cup.
"Brother Lan, I'm pregnant." Li Xi lowered his head and said that, when he smiled, she had a charming smile, and happiness could be seen from her eyes, causing Lan Yetian's seat to shake. He glanced at Chu Meng who was seated at the side, and finally understood why Chu Meng was bringing him a cup of coffee.
If his guess was not wrong, all of this should have been arranged by Chu Meng.
"Yes, I know." Lan Yetian still did not care. Li Xi, what do you want to say … "
"In fact, I really resented you back then. The most important person in my life, the person who promised to protect me, completely disappeared from my world one morning. I had wanted to find you crazily, and I felt that my closest kin had disappeared.
"I'm sorry, therefore, I will not let you return to your previous life now." As he said that, Lan Yetian extended his hand and grabbed onto Li Xi's small hand. This made Chu Meng's heart tremble, but she kept her head down, shaking the coffee in her hand as if nothing had happened.
Li Xi unyieldingly pulled back her small hand, then swept her eyes across Lan Yetian, "Brother Lan, listen to me out!"
After taking a deep breath, Li Xi slowly focused her eyes on the brown liquid once again, "But only after I realized that I could protect myself with my own hands did I finally get used to climbing the mountain without your protection. I could fight against those bad students once again, and after that, when there was no news from you anymore, I completely put you in my past and treated you like my elder brother in my past. Brother Lan, don't get entangled with the past. You and I have never started before, and have no future for you. "
Hearing Li Xi's words, Lan Yetian's brows tightened and he slowly retracted his hand. However, his heart felt as if it had been ruthlessly pierced by someone.
"Is that what you wanted to say?"
"Right." Li Xi raised her head, a faint smile appearing in her watery eyes.
Staring at Li Xi's smile which reached the bottom of his heart, Lan Yetian's lips twitched, revealing a beautiful curve. But my heart is locked in by myself. "
With that sentence, Li Xi's face turned pale, and she froze on the spot.
"Brother Lan, actually …"
"Does he know that you're not Li Mo?" Lan Yetian blocked Li Xi's persuasion, and asked coldly. Does he know you are Li Xi, and is not that woman from before?!
Lan Yetian let Li Xi's body slightly tremble. Helplessly, she lowered his head and bit his rosy lips.
She knew that her weak point had been grabbed tightly by Lan Yetian, and this was a hurdle that she could not even cross from a distance.
"Have you ever thought about what would happen if he knew?"
"This …" Li Xi was at a loss of what to do. She clenched her fists, her heart was in complete panic, she did not expect herself to be questioned back. I, I haven't thought about it yet. "
"Yes!" Lan Yetian gave a light grunt of assent, and then held up the coffee cup in front of him and tasted it, a smile appearing in his eyes. Li Xi, I will stay put, and when you get hurt, I will be the first to rush forward and snatch you back, and I will never leave again. "
His words were very smooth, but the two women in front of him were as pale as paper.
Li Xi frowned, and looked at the stubborn Lan Yetian helplessly, just like how he was back then. At this moment, Li Xi's beautiful eyes were filled with tears. She was so excited that she helplessly shook her head, the tip of her nose still feeling sour. Brother Lan! I won't fall in love with you, even if I'm hurt, I won't fall in love with you. How could I fall in love with someone who once said he'd disappear? "
Seeing that she could not persuade Lan Yetian to give up, Li Xi was worth provoking.
However, it seemed as if Lan Yetian was extremely familiar with Li Xi's methods. He was not angry nor was he guilty; he was only staring at Li Xi's little face as if he was staring at an array of stars. It's okay, I'll wait for you to forgive me. "
"Then, do you know how many years Chu Meng has been waiting for you! Why can't you turn around and see who's the one you really should love? " Li Xi fiercely stood up, and said coldly before pulling Chu Meng up, "Please look at this woman in front of you carefully. For you, she can do many things, so stop chasing after people and things that are impossible, and properly cherish the people beside you."
After Li Xi finished speaking, she turned around and left. After taking a few steps, she seemed to have thought of something and stopped in her tracks, and said with her back facing Lan Yetian: "I will definitely not allow you to do anything to Ling Yushi's company! I will use my own way to protect the people I love. Even if I am injured, this is the path I have chosen! "
After saying that, Li Xi took small firm steps and disappeared from Lan Yetian's line of sight, but his eyes looked as if they were stung with pain.
He slowly withdrew his gaze, and glanced at Chu Meng who was standing in the same spot, "Next time, don't use Li Xi as a tool to persuade me. That will only make me hate you even more!"
