Chapter 113 Secret Observation
Meng Ruoxi and Ling Chuji walked out of their teacher's house together. The two of them strolled along the street, and the handsome man and beautiful woman formed a beautiful landscape.
There was a pair of eyes in the dark, staring at them closely.
The owner of the eyes had a vicious look on his face, and his handsome and gentle face became extremely distorted, as if he wanted to eat the two people in the distance alive.
Especially when he looked at Meng Ruoxi, his eyes were cold enough to kill people.
"Sir." Lao Hei looked at him with some worry. He never thought that when he returned to the capital again, he would see his wife walking and chatting with another man.
Shi Yanjin's voice was cold, "After not seeing each other for a year, she found a new lover and didn't care about me and our three children at all. She thought that since we were divorced, I couldn't do anything to her."
He snorted coldly, "Just wait and see! I will never let her go in my life! I will also let her know the price of betraying me!"
Thinking about it day and night, what he got in return was betrayal. He became jealous to the point of madness and developed a demon in his heart, wanting only to severely torture the person who betrayed him.
Lao Hei was trembling in his heart, and he had a premonition that what was going to happen next would be horrible.
I can't help sighing in my heart. Instead of torturing each other, it's better to let go.
This is good for both of us.
It's a pity that the gentleman couldn't figure it out, and this is destined to be an unsolvable problem.
I can only sigh, what a bad fate.
Ling Chuji raised his eyes alertly, always feeling that there was a pair of eyes in the dark staring at him and Ruoxi.
He tightly grasped the hand of the person next to him and scanned the surroundings with sharp eyes, trying to find out who was spying on him.
Meng Ruoxi looked at him puzzledly, "What's wrong?"
After scanning for a week, I still found nothing. There were only pedestrians around, no other suspicious people.
But Ling Chuji believed in his intuition and said in a low voice, "Someone is watching us in the dark."
He did not choose to hide the truth because he was worried that Meng Ruoxi would be scared. Instead, he chose to tell her so that she would be more vigilant and prevent any accidents from happening due to her ignorance.
Meng Ruoxi was surprised, "Spying on us?"
I turned around and looked around, but didn't find anything unusual.
Ling Chuji nodded solemnly, "Yes, I don't know if he is coming for you or me. Anyway, you have to be careful for a while. I will send some people to guard you to prevent any accidents."
Meng Ruoxi was not a hypocritical person, and she did not want anything to happen because of her carelessness, so she nodded and said, "Okay."
After this episode, the two stopped walking and instead quickened their pace and left the street.
After the two left, Xiao Hei pushed Shi Yanjin out of the alley and said with a look of fear, "Sir, this man is so sharp. His alertness and observation skills are simply astonishing to the point of being terrifying. And judging from his steady steps and the strong aura around him, he is probably a soldier, and his position is not low."
Taking my wife back from such a man would definitely cause me endless troubles in the future.
I wanted to persuade him, but considering how much the gentleman insisted on his wife, I guess he wouldn't listen even if I talked till my mouth was broken.
Shi Yanjin's eyes were dark, his face was even gloomier, and his voice was so cold that it made people tremble. "So what? No matter how powerful he is, my wife will not allow him to get involved in the slightest!"
Lao Hei was a little worried. Since Mr. Jin left, Mr. Jin had acted even more recklessly.
The whole person seems to be in a state of madness.
I sighed in my heart and wished my wife good luck.
When I got home, my mother was sitting in the yard, wearing a pair of black-framed glasses on her nose and reading a document in her hand.
Meng Ruoxi and Ling Chuji walked in, deliberately increasing their pace to let their mother notice their arrival.
Hearing footsteps, Li Aihua looked up and saw her daughter and Ling Chuji. A gentle smile appeared on her face, "You're back."
The two nodded in tacit understanding, turned their heads to look at each other, smiles in their eyes.
Ling Chuji squeezed her hand gently, then reluctantly let go of the hand that had been holding her. He stood straight and respectfully called Li Aihua, "Aunt."
Li Aihua nodded, looked at his energetic appearance, and praised, "Not bad, he looks very energetic, a man of integrity."
Thinking about the scene of meeting the other party's mother yesterday and the topics mentioned, my hesitant heart finally calmed down.
After sitting down in the living room, he got straight to the point, "Yesterday your mother proposed to Ruoxi, saying that you two have been together for two months and have a deep affection for each other. It's time to get married. I am very satisfied with you. What do you think about this?"
I feel relieved and have no worries about leaving my daughter in the care of such an upright family.
Unexpectedly, his mother took a step ahead of him. Ling Chuji's eyes sparkled, and every word came from the bottom of his heart. He promised, "Since I've been with Ruoxi, my feelings for her have deepened day by day. I will marry her in this life. Aunt, you can rest assured to hand Ruoxi to me. I will never let her down in my life. If I break this oath, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death."
Li Aihua's eyes were moved. "Good boy, I believe you will do everything you said. I have promised your mother that you will get married soon. I hope you can support each other, be honest with each other, love each other for the rest of your life, and grow old together."
Ling Chuji couldn't control the corners of his lips that were raised, and nodded, "Thank you, aunt, for handing Ruoxi over to me. I will do my best to make Ruoxi happy, and protect her and guard her for the rest of my life without suspicion or doubt, and make her the happiest woman in the world."
He made the promise tirelessly, feeling as excited as if he had received a medal of honor after completing a mission in the army.
Meng Ruoxi had a faint smile on her face, and it was rare that she didn't feel disgusted by her mother's presumptuous attitude.
The marriage was settled, and the Ling family came to propose marriage the next day.
Only Ling Chuji's parents and himself came. Ling Qianya was supposed to come too, but was called away by a sudden phone call.
Ling Chuji's parents are both soldiers and upright people. Their only son is deeply in love with the daughter of the Meng family, and they have always held a supportive attitude.
Now that he has come to propose marriage, he has a happy smile on his face.
Ling Yunzhi reached out his hand and shook Meng Yubai's hand tightly, without any airs of a troop commander, and said loudly, "Yubai, from now on we will be relatives. Your daughter is my daughter, and my son is your son. Ruoxi will not be wronged when she marries into my Ling family, so you can rest assured."
Ling Yunzhi has an upright temperament and is incorruptible. He always speaks with sincerity and will never do anything that goes against one's will.
Meng Yubai trusted him very much and said gently, "I know your character, and Chu Ji is praised by everyone. I am relieved to marry Ruoxi to your family."
Over there, Shen Fuyao held Li Aihua's hand and said with emotion, "Aihua, it's not easy for two children to be together. Chuji has always been cold-tempered and as hard-headed as a block of wood. I thought he would be a bachelor for the rest of his life. But one day, he suddenly came home and told me that he had fallen in love with a girl and he wanted to marry her in this life. At that time, I thought, no matter what, I would help him marry that girl home."
Turning around and looking at his son, who was talking tenderly with his future daughter-in-law, he said with a look of satisfaction, "Look, they are such a good match."
Li Aihua turned her head and looked over, with a deep smile on her lips, "Yes, they are a good match."
The steel turned into soft fingers, Ling Chuji could not hide his joy, and said softly, "Ruoxi, I have submitted the marriage report. Soon, you will become my wife."
He stared at the person in front of him with tears in his eyes. He didn't look like a fierce tiger in the army at all.
Meng Ruoxi was also somewhat happy in her heart, "I will get married after I come back from the show."
Ling Chuji naturally agreed to what his wife said, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
At noon, the two families gathered together for lunch. Meng Ruotang had not returned yet as he was representing the school on an academic exchange abroad, so he missed Meng Ruoxi's engagement party.
In the afternoon, Ling Yunzhi and Shen Fuyao returned to the troops.
At the door, Meng Ruoxi and Ling Chuji stood facing each other. Neither of them spoke, but an unprecedented warmth flowed quietly around them.
The engagement brought the relationship between the two people to a new level.
Finally, looking at the man who was reluctant to leave, Meng Ruoxi urged him, "Go ahead, don't delay the army's work."
They had just gotten engaged and were in love with each other. Ling Chuji did not move, "I want to see you one more time."
Meng Ruoxi lowered her head and whispered, "There will be plenty of opportunities to see it in the future, so it doesn't matter if we wait for a while."
Ling Chuji had sharp ears and heard what she said. A smile appeared in his eyes. He looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he quickly lowered his head and pecked her cheek.
He stood up and said seriously, "I'm leaving."
Meng Ruoxi felt the warm touch on her cheek, her long eyelashes trembled, and finally, she smiled and said, "Go."
The tall and upright figure turned back every few steps. Meng Ruoxi stood at the door all the time, watching his figure until he walked away and could no longer be seen. Then she turned around and went into the house.
On the day of the show, Ling Qianya personally sent Meng Ruoxi to the TV station as she said.
The middle-aged director Mu Ran came out to receive them personally. After exchanging a few words with Ling Qianya, he praised Meng Ruoxi's appearance, "Is this your student? This is a face that was born to work in the entertainment industry. This image alone is far superior to others. This face alone can leave a deep impression on the hearts of the national audience."
Ling Qianya looked proud and said, "Ruoxi is not only my student, but also a member of my Ling family. I don't ask you to be special, but don't let others bully her."
Upon hearing this, Mu Ran understood what was going on and said with a smile, "Don't worry, leave her with me. Anyone who dares to bully her will be against me."
He stretched out his hand and said to Meng Ruoxi, "My name is Mu Ran. If you have any problems in Taiwan, just come to me."
Meng Ruoxi was quite knowledgeable about the ways of the world. She extended her hand and said with a smile, "My name is Meng Ruoxi. I'll trouble you from now on."
Caring is one thing, but whether the other party appreciates it is another. Seeing the other party's humble and polite attitude, Mu Ran felt relieved, and his expression became more sincere. He waved his hand and said, "It's no trouble. It's a piece of cake."
Just like that, Meng Ruoxi began to emerge on the stage of Dancing Miracles.
