Chapter 135: The Truth 2-Why did you do those things to me four years ago
Lu Jingchen came back from outside and was about to enter the room. When he walked to the door, he heard Xia Qingxi asking Yao Hongmei:
"At that time, Lu Lidong didn't want to marry me, so Wang Mingfang asked him to drug me and put me on Lu Jingchen's bed, fabricating the illusion that I climbed into his bed..."
Her voice was very loud, and it broke into his ears without warning. He couldn't ignore it even if he wanted to.
He stopped walking unconsciously and stood there quietly. He heard every word of the conversation between the two of them.
The moment he heard Yao Hongmei say that she had no involvement, Lu Jingchen's brows suddenly wrinkled, his eyes were like sharp swords, his hands unconsciously clenched into fists, his arm muscles were tense, and the veins on the back of his hands were clearly visible.
It turned out that she did not take the initiative to climb into his bed, it turned out that everything was designed by his own brother!
This ugly truth was revealed, and Lu Jingchen used his greatest willpower to control himself. He wanted to go in and question her, but he listened in silence, moved his feet with difficulty, and turned around. His face was as cold as ice. He walked to the table and sat down, and his whole body exuded a terrifying chill.
Xia Qingliu watched the white figure retreat, knowing that her goal had been achieved, so she stopped asking questions and said to Yao Hongmei:
"Okay, I understand, you can go out."
Seeing her attitude, Yao Hongmei felt a little uneasy, fearing that Xia Qingliu would not believe her, and expressed her attitude again, saying:
"Qingliu, I'm sorry for what happened before, but don't worry, I will definitely cooperate with you this time, help you wash away the stigma, and let everyone know the truth."
Xia Qingliu nodded and said nothing more. Yao Hongmei walked out of the room nervously, and when she looked up, she saw Lu Jingchen sitting quietly at the table.
Her heart skipped a beat, wondering when he came back and whether he heard what she had just said.
In fact, Yao Hongmei didn't want Lu Jingchen to know the truth so soon. Now she hadn't completely broken up with Lu Lidong and his mother and son. If Lu Jingchen knew, he would definitely go to Lu Lidong to ask the truth about what happened.
Lu Lidong would know that she was the one who said it, and then he would be angry at her. Wouldn't she be in danger?
Thinking of this, Yao Hongmei couldn't help but secretly glance at Lu Jingchen a few times. Seeing that he had a cold face as usual and no other emotions, she felt relieved.
After Yao Hongmei returned to her room, Lu Jingchen stood up from the chair with a cold face and walked towards the room.
In the room, Xia Qingxi had already opened the curtains, and the light from outside came in, making the whole room bright, as if all the darkness had been dispelled.
After Lu Jingyu walked in, he did not speak immediately. He sat there in silence, with a very bad face, as if he was thinking, and as if he was trying hard to suppress his emotions.
Xia Qingxi did not rush to speak either. She was sure that he had heard what she had just said to Yao Hongmei. Since he knew the truth, there was no need for her to say more now, and it was time for him to express his attitude.
Xia Qingli deliberately designed to let him hear Yao Hongmei tell the truth:
first, after the experience of Yao Hongmei's sudden change of heart last time, she no longer trusted Yao Hongmei and was afraid that something would happen later, so now she had the opportunity to let him know, she would naturally not let it go,
and second, letting him hear it accidentally would be much more credible than telling him directly.
The original body had been carrying a stigma for so long, and finally the truth was revealed in front of Lu Jingshi. Now Xia Qingli just wanted to see what his attitude would be towards this matter.
She had to admit that she had some different feelings for Lu Jingshi. Now she just hoped that he would not be blinded by the so-called family affection and would not tolerate and forgive his brother Lu Lidong without any bottom line or principles.
If he really didn't understand, she would be disappointed and would reconsider their future relationship.
The room was quiet, and neither of them spoke. They just sat there in silence for a long time.
Xia Qingying knew that Lu Jingchen had always valued friendship and loyalty. Now that she heard with her own ears that her brother, who had grown up with her, was plotting against her, it must be difficult for her to accept it for a while. It was normal that she couldn't calm down for a while. Just as she was about to get up and pour him a glass of water, she suddenly heard Lu Jingchen ask herself in a cold voice:
"You said those words just now on purpose for me to hear them!"
He looked at her with sharp and cold eyes.
Xia Qingying didn't want to deny it. She knew that Lu Jingchen was so smart that he could see through her tricks at a glance, so why bother hiding it and not daring to admit it.
"Yes." Xia Qingying met his gaze and answered gently and frankly.
She knew that with this admission, her weak and simple image would no longer exist in his mind, but it didn't matter, she was not a weak little white flower.
In fact, hearing Lu Jingchen ask this, she felt relieved instead. At least it showed that he didn't choose to play dumb after hearing about this. Now it depends on how he will deal with it.
"Why didn't you say it?" Lu Jingchen's face and voice were as cold as cold, and the whole room was shrouded in low pressure.
"I told you that." Xia Qingxi replied immediately:
"I told you that the day you came back!" At this point, she suddenly felt a little depressed and wronged:
"But you and everyone else didn't believe me!" She calmed down and continued:
"Later, I told you that I was also a victim. Did you believe it? You chose to remain silent!"
Lu lowered his eyelids in shock, and his expression was a little gloomy. After a long while, he looked at Xia Qingxi and asked in a calm voice:
"Four years ago, when I came back, why did you do those...strange things to me?"
Four years ago, he came back from the army to visit his family. At that time, the fifteen-year-old Xia Qingling had just been brought to the city. She was always submissive, but she did some very inappropriate things to him.
For example, she would suddenly walk into his room in the middle of the night wearing cool clothes, and she would wash his clothes, including his underwear. What's more, she even asked him if he liked her.
These improper behaviors were also the reason why he was so sure that she got into his bed on her own when he found her in his bed that year.
After hearing what Lu Jingchen said, Xia Qingli was very confused. She didn't know what her original self did four years ago. The original book didn't describe it in such detail, and she had no memory of her original self at that time. She couldn't help but ask,
"What strange behavior?"
Lu Jingchen was a little embarrassed by the question. How should he explain it?
You came into my room in the middle of the night, you washed my underwear, you asked me if I liked you...
The more Lu Jingzhen was silent, the more curious Xia Qingling became. She didn't know what the original body had done to make him misunderstand her, but from his attitude, she could tell that it must be something hard to believe. She concentrated her energy and tried to search for the original body's memory.
She found that the longer she had been here, the weaker her original body's memory became. She tried hard for a long time to remember some fragments. After figuring out the strange actions he mentioned, her face changed.
