Chapter 26 Maru
“I think…” Li Chi’an opened his mouth, then said in a hoarse voice, “I’ve been manipulated.”
“Definitely,” Gao Yinxi said. “You should have had him assessed, right? He has typical NPD personality disorder; he’s not a normal person.”
A cold wind swept by, and a chill crept up the backs of the three.
Silence reigns in Mr. Gao's luxurious villa tonight.
After a long pause, Xu Zhuwen asked, "Do you think he really loves that girl?"
"Men are either after money or a young womb," Gao Yinxi scoffed. "Chen Li has become so vulgar; how could he possibly still have love?"
Let's not tarnish that word, shall we?
Cheating scumbags and bitches.
The love of middle-aged men who have affairs is the least trustworthy thing.
"His first love was such a high-quality girl from Anbao. I strongly suspect that Chen Li was after her background and wanted to improve his social class through marriage so he could avoid thirty years of hard work."
From the age of sixteen, Gao Yinxi followed her adoptive father through trials and tribulations, competing with others for clearly defined interests, and thus understood the dark side of human nature best.
“Once that girl’s value is completely drained, she will be the next you.” Gao Yinxi’s sharp gaze fell on Li Chi’an’s calm and fair face. “You have nothing to regret. You can seize this opportunity to escape from this vampire-like man. It’s no exaggeration to say that you have changed your fate.”
Li Chi'an gave a bitter laugh, "Should I be glad I don't have to be a blood bag anymore?"
"Otherwise what? Look at him, his career has just started to take off, and he's already on guard against you. Even if someone like that earns hundreds of billions or billions in the future, you won't get a single cent. Since that's the case, get out of there sooner, and you'll be free sooner." Gao Yinxi's eyes shone with a penetrating light. "From now on, you should use your entire life to build your own walls and tiles. Every bit you do is yours, isn't that good?"
“If you hadn’t gotten divorced and hadn’t gone through this, the greatest achievement you’d have in the rest of your life would have been nothing more than being Mrs. Chen.” Gao Yinxi said firmly. “After the divorce, you’ll be Li Chi’an. You can be President Li, Teacher Li, or anyone else you want to be. In a few years, your achievements might not be any less than his. Maybe he’ll even have to look up to you.”
All I can say is that Mr. Gao truly deserves to be called an excellent business manager.
"You're good at making empty promises," Li Chi'an couldn't help but laugh.
But undeniably, Xixi's words gave her boundless hope.
"Want some?" Gao Yinxi asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Eat!" Li Chi'an smiled brightly.
Xu Zhuwen watched from the side, and although she didn't say anything, she vaguely felt that something was slightly different deep inside her.
For a moment, she couldn't see what it was.
She picked up her phone, opened WeChat, and couldn't help but get angry again, "Qian Song hasn't replied to my message yet."
Gao Yinxi picked up the water bottle next to her, unscrewed the cap, and gulped down a few mouthfuls. Seeing Xu Zhuwen looking at her phone with a disappointed expression, she couldn't help but ask, "Honestly, what do you like about him?"
Thank goodness, she managed to hold back for so long without revealing that Qian Song hadn't gone on a business trip but had instead stayed in a hotel alone.
Xu Zhuwen, who is obsessed with love, should stop testing her trembling nerves.
She was afraid she wouldn't be able to bear it.
Not only did Xu Zhuwen remain silent for a moment when he looked at Gao Yinxi, but even Li Chi'an, who was sitting on the carpet dozing off after a brainstorming session and was exhausted, opened his half-closed eyes.
“He’s a good person.” Xu Zhuwen propped herself up with one hand to sit up straighter. “He knows a lot, he understands many of my thoughts, he cooks exceptionally well, he has a great sense of life, he loves reading, and he has profound insights into many things. He can understand everything I say, and I feel very at ease with him… He’s also very good to me, and he doesn’t like children.”
As if she had opened a floodgate of words, she swept away her previous dejected appearance, spoke quickly and fluently, and then asked as if to confirm, "You all agree, right?"
Gao Yinxi and Li Chian exchanged a glance and hummed in agreement.
Xu Zhuwen added, "Although she's older, she exercises regularly, so she's in good shape, has a wide range of interests, and is talented and idealistic..."
Finally, she looked at the two people on either side of her and sighed softly, "Of course, you may think he's not handsome, but handsome guys are all the same. When it comes to living life, you have to be realistic."
Yuan Er is also a handsome man, but he's been married before.
Chen Li is handsome, but he cheated on his wife.
Xu Zhuwen's words struck a nerve with the two people present, who were already feeling pain.
Gao Yinxi picked up the beef jerky again and chewed and chewed, as if she wanted to crush something hard to chew. Then she asked casually, "Wenwen, have you noticed that you're talking really fast lately?"
Li Chian: "..."
My cousin's boyfriend is tall, his physique hasn't changed much, he has a refined demeanor, and his head isn't protruding, but that's about it.
His facial features, pieced together, look alright, but he's definitely not handsome.
On the other hand, how handsome can a 48-year-old man, who is about to turn fifty, really be?
She glanced at her cousin, who was now standing frozen in place.
I sighed inwardly, "This moment has finally come."
She recalled the scene when she and Yinxi first met Qian Song.
Despite their different personalities, she and Yinxi both fell silent without prior agreement.
Her cousin, although a little older, has been practicing yoga for over ten years and has fair skin, so she still looks like a pretty and delicate girl. If you had to nitpick and say something bad about her, it would just be that her nose is a little flat.
She is beautiful, has a stable job within the system, can paint, play the piano, has coffee and sommelier certifications, and loves reading and traveling.
It has both knowledge and taste.
But, after being single for many years, I fell in love again and found this person...
It was around that time that they learned that their cousin and Qian Song had already met each other's parents, and both sets of parents were very satisfied with each other and were even discussing how to hold the wedding.
My cousin isn't just dating, she's headed straight for marriage.
How could I not be satisfied?
My cousin and Qian Song got together because their parents arranged the match.
Thank goodness, because the two of them were dating with marriage in mind, neither Xixi nor she had ever said a bad word about Qian Song all this time.
Who would have thought that tonight Xixi couldn't hold back and bluntly showed her cousin how much she disliked Qian Song?
Is this some kind of drunken tantrum while everyone's having a tough time?
Li Chi'an's senses were completely gone, and his already chaotic nerves became even more numb.
Spicy meatballs.
"Xixi, have you had too much to drink?"
"I didn't drink too much." Gao Yinxi raised her arm and threw the empty water bottle into the trash can with precise shooting. "I just drank water."
