But Lu Qingli was neither brainless nor blind, her mother had given her beauty and health, her father had given her status and upbringing, and given her both beauty and talent, as well as her status and wealth. What right did she have to endure such humiliation!? What right did she have to work with another woman!

Love can be very particular, can also be very good. It just so happened that Lu Qingli was not someone who could be taken lightly.

If you don't care, then just throw it away.

Lu Qingli turned around and went into the bedroom and opened the drawer of the bedside table.

A black velvet jewelry box with a white ribbon in the upper left corner.

Inside was the diamond ring Xi Muyao had brought to her ring finger at their second wedding.

When they first got married, she didn't bring the diamond ring with her after the divorce and gave it to Xi Muyao. She had only heard Lin Yeyan mention it when she provoked her, and Lin Yeyan threw it into the toilet and flushed it away.

This is the second diamond wedding ring. The diamond was bigger and brighter than the first.

There were no lights on in the bedroom, and diamonds sparkled in the dim light from outside the French windows.

Lu Qingli closed the box with a "pa" sound, and rushed to the balcony, holding onto the jewelry box, she swung it with her arms up high, going past the highest point, and then suddenly retracted it.

Lu Qingli held the jewelry box tightly, a white mark appearing on her lower lip. As if she had thought of something, she returned to her bedroom and stuffed the jewelry box into the pocket of her cloth jacket.

Nanny Liu knocked on the door and entered, asking curiously: "Miss Er, why did Young Master leave?"

Lu Qingli straightened the clothes on the clothes rack, and casually said: "Oh, his company still has urgent matters, so he left first. Bob and I are staying at home these days. "We'll wait until she's fully recovered before we head back to live."

Nanny Liu was overjoyed: "That's great! I wanted to mention this matter to Miss Er! I was afraid that Young Master wouldn't bear to part with Miss Er, so he didn't say anything. "

"Why would he be reluctant to part with me? He would rather I wasn't around so he could fool around with that woman …" Lu Qingli pulled at his woolen shirt, and muttered with his head lowered.

"Huh?" Nanny Liu did not hear clearly and asked, "Miss Er, what are you muttering about by yourself?"

"I'll tell you!" Lu Qingli raised her head, raised her voice, and said: "I'm hungry! Isn't it almost 6 o'clock? "

Nanny Liu hurriedly nodded, "They are in the process of being prepared! Miss, what did you go out for at noon? She came back without lunch and went to the nursery to watch Bob. I'll go cook something for you first. "

"Mhmm, hurry up!" Lu Qingli pushed Nanny Liu out of the room and closed the door casually.

Mu Wenshu released the steering wheel, picked up the business card on the stage, and glanced at it again. It's Lattice Wood Corporation, correct.

Mu Wenshu called Lin Luo, looked at the building outside the window, and said, "I'm downstairs at your company."

Lin Luo was currently lying on the office sofa, looking at the transactions between the Lattice Wood and Western Europe. Hearing the buzzing sound of her phone, she directly answered the call without even looking at the caller ID. You're already here! What time is it? "

Lin Luo immediately placed the information on the table, and used one hand to support herself as she sat up. She looked at her watch and smiled: "My ankle is injured, why don't you come and pick me up?"

Mu Wenshu decisively answered "Ok" and then hung up the phone.

He did not believe that Lin Lin Yeyan was the general manager of Lattice Wood or that she was in charge of such a large company.

He did not know how Lin Yeyan had left the police station at that time, nor did he understand why Xi Muyao would still be willing to stay with her after he had injured Xi Muyao and his group, but who would let a young and inexperienced woman to become the general manager of a company? At most, they could just rely on relationships to be little clerks or secretaries.

Mu Wenshu threw down the name card in his hand, remembered the floor, then directly entered the office building.

The elevator opened with a "ding" sound, and Lattice Wood company's huge logo entered his eyes.

Mu Wenshu adjusted his sleeves, and pushed open the glass door and entered.

"Hello! Is there anything I can help you with? " The front desk girl smiled politely. Her soft and beautiful voice sounded at the first moment.

Mu Wenshu nodded and stood still. He was dressed in a blue and grey suit, looking dignified and proper. My surname is Mu and I'm looking for Lin Luo. "

When the front desk girl heard the person's surname was Mu, she quickly came out from behind the reception desk, "Ok, Mr. Mu, please follow me."

Mu Wenshu raised his eyebrows slightly, could it be that Lin Yeyan was really the general manager of Lattice Wood?

When the stage lady brought Mu Wenshu to stop in front of the Lattice Wood office that had the General Manager badge on it, Mu Wenshu finally believed in what Lin Luo had said.

The front desk miss knocked on the door twice, when she received a reply from the person inside, she then pushed open the door and let Mu Wenshu in.

"Thank you." Mu Wenshu walked in and sat straight up at the desk with a serious look on his face.

Lin Luo slowly stood up and gave a light smile: "You came on time! "If you say six, then six. It's neither too late nor too early."

"Then can we leave now?" Mu Wenshu said indifferently. Even though he had many questions in his heart, Lin Luo might not tell him. Rather than asking, he might as well wait for Lin Luo to bring it up himself.

"Then come here!" Lin Luo waved her hand towards Mu Wenshu, and pointed to his right leg, "Help me up, my leg is injured!"

The lower half of Lin Luo's body was hidden under the desk, so even if Mu Wenshu looked at it directly, he would not be able to see it.

Mu Wenshu suddenly remembered that before he left this afternoon, Lin Luo limped over to his side to help him take away the security guards.

He must have been injured because of the dispute between the two of them.

Mu Wenshu casually sat opposite of Lin Yeyan, with the two of them separated by a thick and heavy table.

"Since it's inconvenient for you, let's talk here!"

Lin Luo immediately jumped up onto the table and came out, "Don't! I'm hungry! She didn't have the strength to speak. I'm going out to eat! "

Mu Wenshu looked at Lin Luo's leg. Her entire lower leg was tightly wrapped by the boot barrel, revealing a chunk of thigh wearing black stockings.

Lin Luo followed his gaze and looked at Lin Luo, who was leaning on the table, trying to support her body, as if she was about to take off her shoes, "You don't believe me? Do you want me to take it off for you to check and verify its authenticity? "

Mu Wenshu stood up, and walked over and supported her arm, "No need. It's none of my business whether you're hurt or not. "

"So heartless!" Lin Luo pouted and said in a low voice, "I was trying to protect you. Otherwise, I would have been pushed down by Xi Muyao."

"That's perfect." Mu Wenshu shifted his gaze, looking at the nearby glass door, "I saved you once, and you also saved me once. We're even! "No one owes anyone a debt."

Lin Luo curled her lips, and said in a low voice: "How could it be calculated like that?"

When she was at her lowest, most helpless and saddest, Mu Wenshu saved her from a street hoodlum. He even brought her home to take care of her with all his heart.

Mu Wenshu no longer answered, as he half-supported Lin Luo and half-carried him out of the office.

It just so happened that Chen Dong was holding onto a piece of information and walking out of the Vice President's Office with his head lowered. When he looked up and saw Mu Wenshu and Lin Luo, who seemed to be extremely close to each other, his eyes moved around the place and a polite smile hung on his face, "Boss Lin, are you off work?"

"Yes." Lin Luo smiled, "With you here, what else do I have to worry about."

She patted Mu Wenshu's shoulders and introduced him to Chen Dong: "This is Mu Wenshu, a Gold-ranked lawyer who just returned back to the Mainland from Hong Kong."

Chen Dong nodded and extended his hand, "I have heard a lot about you! I am the Deputy General Manager of Lattice Wood, Chen Dong. Lawyer Mu was indeed a talented person. I've seen the case where Lawyer Mu represented the Jianghua Group and fought back with all his might.

Mu Wenshu reached out his hand to grasp Chen Dong's hand, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Chief Chen. "Nice to meet you!"

Lin Luo looked at the two of them exchanging greetings, and then spoke: "We should go! Chief Chen, you go back earlier as well. "

Mu Wenshu helped Lin Luo onto her own Maserati, and turned to ask Lin Luo who was sitting in the front passenger seat, "Where to?"

Lin Luo straightened her hair and replied: "There's a western restaurant nearby that tastes pretty good. Let's go somewhere else. "

Mu Wenshu faintly nodded, "Up to you."

"When we reach the intersection ahead, turn right. We'll reach our destination after walking for another 200 meters."

Night fell, and the lanterns were lit. He sat in the 18th floor of the western restaurant. The melodious music lingered in his ears, and the slightly dim western restaurant was quiet.

The restaurant was not full. Guests were either eating quietly or talking in whispers.

Mu Wenshu took a glance at the lights of the city outside the window. They were shining brightly as they meandered far away, looking down at the earth. There were countless tall buildings along the street, and the cars on the street were flashing their lights in the darkness as they slowly moved.

"Aren't you going to ask me what I want?" Lin Luo shook the wine in her goblet lightly, and looked at Mu Wenshu with concentration.

Mu Wenshu withdrew his gaze from the window and gulped down the red wine in his cup.

He shook his head. "There's nothing to ask. I don't have anything to do with you, but we met by chance. "What do you want? It's none of my business who you want to be with."

His indifferent and calm voice made the smile on Lin Luo's face freeze for a split-second. Since Lin Luo's heart was empty, he simply stopped smiling and downed the cup in one gulp.

Lin Luo drank it anxiously, choking on her throat, she immediately took her napkin and coughed twice.

"You don't want to ask, but I want to tell you." Lin Luo placed the napkin on the table and stared straight at Mu Wenshu, "Do you still love Lu Qingli?"

Mu Wenshu's shaking of the wine cup paused, he slowly raised his eyes and looked at Lin Luo, "I love her, and I will never change. But no matter how much I love her, it won't ruin her family or her happiness. "

"Humph!" Lin Luo sneered, and fiercely threw the napkin on the table, "What if she is not happy at all?"

Mu Wenshu's eyes flickered, gritted his teeth, and said, "The reason for her unhappiness is also because of you, the third party, inserting yourself."

"Mu Wenshu, you are really funny, to think that you are even a lawyer, yet when you met with Lu Qingli's problem, your head would start burning, right? Speaking of which, Xi Muyao is the third party between you and Lu Qingli. I heard that you guys were about to get married at that time, but were stopped by Xi Muyao? You gave up on Lu Qingli once, so are you going to let go of her hand again this time? "

"What do you mean!" Mu Wenshu was unhappy, to the point where anger rose up between his brows and was forcefully suppressed by him, but it still appeared on his face.

Instead, Lin Luo relaxed. She leaned back on the chair and said slowly: "The reason why she faked marriage with Xi Muyao is because he is an illegitimate child. He needs a legitimate father. She did not love Xi Muyao. She loves you. "

Mu Wenshu remained silent for a while, before he lightly rebuked, "What nonsense are you spouting?"

Lin Luo shook his head, "You should know whether or not I am spouting nonsense. The love between you and Lu Qingli is the most difficult to forget, not to mention that you and Lu Qingli were first love each other. Back then, if Xi Muyao had not intervened, you would not have been forced to split up. Women are sentient animals and do not want you men to analyze rationally the consequences of all actions and then decide whether or not to act. "

"Do you know why Xi Muyao divorced Lu Qingli? Their marriage had a problem long before I did. Do you have many beautiful memories with Lu Qingli? Which man can tolerate her woman thinking about other men day and night! "

Mu Wenshu was silent, but because of Lin Luo's words, her heart wavered. What she said was reasonable and very reasonable. Lu Qingli was used to hiding all her emotions and emotions deep, and when he suddenly disappeared, Lu Qingli would definitely not be able to accept it.

Even after three years, if they met again, he could still tell how much Lu Qingli was attached to him.

Lin Luo took the opportunity to add: "How could Lu Qingli forget about you leaving without a sound and be willing to marry Xi Muyao, unless she never loved you at all!"

"She loves me!" Mu Wenshu grabbed tightly onto the corner of the table, even the tablecloth was starting to wrinkle. If it wasn't for Xi Muyao framing my father, Lu Jinghao would have seized the opportunity to force me to leave Lu Qingli, we would truly be husband and wife! "

Lin Luo nodded her head in agreement, and agreed: "No matter how many things happen in the process, the two of you should be together."

Mu Wenshu picked up the goblet and gulped the red wine down as if drinking water. Mu Wenshu was extremely excited, his hands were unsteady, and the goblet that was held by the side of the plate emitted a clear sound.

However, he was a lawyer, how could he let others take him by the nose so easily?

"The reason why you said all that, was because you wanted me to find Lu Qingli and let you be with him in broad daylight."

"Yes sir!" Lin Luo nodded his head and admitted it naturally. I want you to be with Lu Qingli so that Xi Muyao can marry me in broad daylight. Isn't this a win-win situation? "

Mu Wenshu was about to say something, but he was stopped by Lin Luo, "Besides, Xi Muyao is the third party between you and Lu Qingli, and Lu Qingli is also the third party between Xi Muyao and I. Obviously, Xi Muyao and I first met each other, and I fell in love with Xi Muyao. If Lu Qingli was not the daughter of the mayor, why would she marry Xi Muyao? "

"I am a child of the poor. His father was a mechanic and his mother worked part-time to subsidize the household. I also have a brother who has a good character and a good education. Even if my family isn't rich, my life is blissful. "

Lin Luo paused for a moment, and then laughed at himself. It sounded ironic. When I first went to college, my father was addicted to gambling, so he secretly took the family savings to gamble, and made a complete loss. I let my mother divorce her, and my mother refused, saying he was my father anyway, and I couldn't leave him alone. "

Her oval face turned pale under the dim light, and her eyes were filled with sorrow. Her tears fell as the large pellet fell, Lin Luo wrinkled her nose, anxiously wiping away his tears, and said with a choked voice, "It was at that time that I met Xi Muyao."

Lin Luo took a glance outside the window and said: "It's such a cold night."

Lin Luo was silent, at that moment, it was as if the entire world had turned silent.

The Lin Yeyan who had been shivering at the mouth of the street in the dead of night during the winter years ago seemed to have appeared right in front of her eyes.

Lin Luo looked coldly at the tall girl who was curled up on the steps outside the glass window. Her lips were so cold that it seemed as if they would turn blue, and she couldn't even shed tears.

Although there was no snow in December in the north, the wind was biting cold. Under the dim yellow light, she was wearing only a bra and inner pants. She was wearing a pair of shallow heels and her arms were wrapped around her body. She was trying her best to curl up into a ball to conserve her physical strength and heat.

Her family borrowed money to help her go to college, paid her tuition fees, and were no longer able to afford her daily expenses. She had no choice but to go out and work. As long as she could earn money, no matter how tiring the work was, she would still actively do it.

In the evening, she took an advertisement for underwear and was filmed by dozens of people. She was assigned to the last group and it was finally her turn. Before the filming was finished, she dragged them to the sofa in the next room to drink, using the excuse of eating supper.

Lin Yeyan did not know how to drink, but since the other girls had all drunk their fill, she did not dare to refuse.

After drinking a few cups, Lin Yeyan blushed deeply as she watched the girls flirting in the manufacturers' arms. Only then did she realize that the situation wasn't right.

Mu Wenshu frowned, interrupting Lin Luo: "Why aren't you leaving immediately." This kind of thing happened too many times that only Si Kong felt offended. However, he still felt somewhat indignant when he heard it from the mouths of the people around him.

Lin Luo shook her head, "No, I didn't leave."

Lin Yeyan wanted to rush out the door every minute, but she had already waited for so long, she would need to finish filming in order to get that five hundred dollars.

She straightened her back and sat on the sofa in the corner as if she were sitting on pins and needles, trying her best to ignore everything that was happening in front of her.

Some of the vendors came over, and she flinched away as if struck by an electric shock. This caused everyone to be displeased, and no one paid any attention to her.

Fortunately, Lin Yeyan didn't care. She wanted to finish filming quickly and rush back to school with the five hundred yuan that she had earned.

However, the heavens did not fulfil his wish, and what happened next was even more tragic. Lin Yeyan, who was wearing only her undergarments and was sitting in her private room had endured until the end, and still did not manage to get a single cent.

The manufacturers said that it was too late today, so they had to close up and take photos tomorrow.

Lin Yeyan stood up, "What right do you have to do it tomorrow? We've already waited for so long, and you guys have already eaten your fill and drunk your fill. You guys have already had enough of us, and now you want to leave just by patting your butts! "

If she took the lead and got angry in public, she would be directly kicked out. She didn't need to come back tomorrow.

Lin Yeyan kicked the table, and said fiercely: "You rotten people, I don't want to see you again, it makes me want to puke!"

Some grumpy manufacturers wanted to beat him up, but they were stopped by the girls beside him. Lin Yeyan took the chance and walked out of the room.

When she arrived at the locker room, she found that all her clothes, shoes, and bags had disappeared. Most people in the locker room wouldn't be able to get in.

It was her first time shooting an advertisement for underwear. She wanted to gather enough money for her living expenses. Who knew that she would lose both her money and her soldiers?

There was not a single curtain in the locker room, and the other models looked at her strangely, both sympathetically and mockingly.

Lin Yeyan could only raise her head and stick out her chest, pretending to be calm and collected as she walked out of the locker room.

Fortunately, it was already late at night and the streets were deserted. She tried to hide herself in the darkness along the wall, occasionally out of sight of the passing cars.

There was nothing on him at all. Even his wallet and phone had been stolen. There was nothing he could do even if he wanted to call his classmates for help.

After walking with great difficulty to the entrance of a shop, Lin Yeyan was unable to endure the cold.

The feeling of loneliness and helplessness, the feeling of making Tian Tian unable to scream and lose her spirit, was truly devastating.

The road was so long that it seemed like he would never reach his destination. She was still naked and shivering in the dark night. How could she ask others for help without being seen as someone else running away?

There was not a single cold star in the night sky. The faint starlight obscured the clouds.

Just like that, the car with its headlights on drove at a stable speed before slowly turning back.

The headlights shone onto the road ahead, enveloping Lin Yeyan in a blinding light.

Lin Yeyan raised her arm to cover her eyes, dodging the irritating rays of light.

The car window slowly rolled down. The man with thick eyebrows and black eyes and a straight nose and thin lips looked indifferently at the woman who was curled up on the icy stairs. His brows were tightly knitted.

"What are you looking at!" Lin Yeyan was in the light, and the carriage was in the darkness. She could not see the appearance of the people in the carriage clearly, but she did not want to be exposed to the light as a form of silent humiliation.

Lin Yeyan stood up, raised her chin, and shot a look of contempt in the direction of the carriage.

"Halt." The man's tone was light, but easily stopped Lin Yeyan in her tracks.

Lin Yeyan bit her lips, unconsciously biting her lower lip, and her face turned white. Lin Yeyan angrily walked towards the side of the car, towards the lights of the car, her long and naked legs glowing with a lustrous light, and even her body was clearly captured by the man hiding in the car.

Lin Yeyan slapped the car's front cover fiercely, and deliberately feigned a fierce look, scolding: "What are you doing! Have you never seen a woman before! "

With her childish look, red nose and cheeks, wide open eyes and high ponytail, he was clearly an inexperienced but strong and fierce little girl. Xi Muyao held his head with one hand on the car window, and couldn't help but chuckle.

Lin Yeyan became angry from the embarrassment and was about to take another step forward to open the car door and beat him up when suddenly, the man in the car started to take off his suit jacket.

Lin Yeyan took a step back in shock, and looked around. There were no nocturnal birds around him, let alone any humans.
