Chapter 103 If I don’t nod, do you think you can break up?
When Xie Ling received the call.
I was discussing the details of the real estate transaction with Zhao Song in a Michelin restaurant.
The phone vibrated suddenly.
"Lingling, where are you?" Cheng's mother's voice came through the receiver.
The deliberately low tone of voice paradoxically made Xie Ling's back tense.
Perhaps something was on her mind, she subconsciously sat up straighter, her voice becoming tense: "I'm outside, meeting a friend."
Zhao Song, who was sitting opposite him, chuckled twice when he heard this. He took his hand off the menu and slowly placed his order with the waiter, "Pan-fried foie gras, medium rare. No pepper or mustard for any of the dishes tonight..."
He raised his eyes to look at Xie Ling, and said meaningfully, "No spicy seasonings at all."
"Lingling, are you free to go home?"
Mother Cheng probably also heard the male voice on the phone, and her voice suddenly lowered, "...Yu'an is here too."
Xie Ling's fingertips suddenly tightened, and he was silent for two seconds. "I'm free."
"Then mom will wait for you."
After Cheng's mother finished speaking, she hung up the phone in a hurry.
Xie Ling put her phone back into her bag and looked up at Zhao Song. "I need to go home."
As he spoke, Zhao Song had already stood up and sipped his red wine slowly. "The food will be served soon. Can't we eat first and then leave?"
"If the price of the house is right, I will transfer the money directly to your account."
Zhao Song hummed, and suddenly reached out and pressed her wrist when she was about to leave.
Xie Ling suddenly raised his head.
Zhao Song said slowly, "The house... I haven't said I want to sell it yet."
——
Half an hour later.
Xie Ling arrived at Cheng's house.
In the twilight, the Cheng family's old house was brightly lit, but there was an inexplicably tense atmosphere. As Xie Ling got out of the car, he saw Cheng's mother standing at the door.
"Lingling, you're here."
Cheng's mother has always been humble and held her hand affectionately.
Xie Ling did not refuse the greetings and courtesies, and let Cheng's mother pull him towards the main house.
"There was a traffic jam on the road, which delayed me for a while."
"normal."
After Cheng's mother had said a few words of concern to her, she went to check her expression. Before she even reached the main hall, she couldn't help but get to the point.
"Yuan wants a divorce. Have I ever told you about this?"
Xie Ling's expression was calm.
Cheng's mother's heart sank.
"I told you?"
Xie Ling hummed softly and pulled his hand away from Xie's mother's grasp. "Did my brother tell you about this?"
——
Cheng Yu'an was locked in the study on the second floor.
The heavy mahogany door blocks out the sounds from the outside world.
Cheng's mother questioned Xie Ling in the living room, while Cheng Yu'an stayed alone in the study. He tugged at his collar impatiently, pulled out his cell phone, and dialed the number he knew by heart.
The phone rang for a long time before someone picked up, but there was only a faint sound of electricity in the receiver.
"...Jia Jia?"
The long silence revealed uneasiness.
After a long while, there were slight footsteps on the phone, followed by the sound of the phone being picked up.
"Goodbye,"
Xie Siyan's cold, jade-like voice suddenly appeared on the phone, with a warning, "Has no one taught you not to think about other people's girlfriends?"
Cheng Yuan didn't expect that he was the one who answered the phone, and blurted out subconsciously:
"Mrs. Xie let you go back?"
How could it be possible...
How is that possible?
Cheng Yuan held his phone tightly, his mind full of thoughts.
He actually thought that Mrs. Xie was gentle with Xie Siyan.
After all, it's okay for China Construction to get rid of him temporarily, but if it continues for a long time, the project will not be able to operate and he will have to be released in the end.
Xie Siyan is not one of those playboys who doesn't care about family affairs. The group cannot do without him.
but……
How could it be so fast?
unless……
"What did you promise Madam Xie?"
Xie Siyan's tone was light, but he wasn't talking to him, "Be good, take it out."
Mu Jia was controlled by him with one hand, and that bony hand guided her hand and put it into her trouser pocket.
She felt a hard box.
The slender fingers seemed to be burned and subconsciously shrank back.
But he was quick to pull it off and said in a loud voice beside her ear: "Open it and put it on me."
…
Xie Siyan's voice was selectively raised or lowered in volume, so only the first sentence was recorded on the phone.
Cheng Yuan listened, still trying to figure out who he was talking to.
Mu Jia's face had flushed red, and she couldn't help but moan as he moved.
This voice was not unlike a man's, it was sharp and charming, captivating people's souls... Having experienced everything in life, how could Cheng Yu'an not know what that voice was?
His whole body tensed up, and for a moment, his breathing stopped.
The voice seemed to be squeezed out from the throat through gritted teeth, "Xie Siyan, shouldn't I ask you that question?"
"Jia Jia..." he shouted anxiously.
Mu Jia couldn't hear what was being said on the phone anymore. Double stimulation, Xie Siyan leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Say it to him."
"No……"
She tilted her neck back.
…
It was unknown when Cheng Yu'an hung up on the call. As Mu Jia continued to accuse him of committing adultery, Xie Siyan showed no signs of restraint. When the commotion was over, Mu Jia looked helplessly at his phone screen, which had gone black.
It's already past noon.
"Would you like to eat?" Xie Siyan put his arm around her and asked with his eyes lowered.
Mu Jia glared at him hatefully, his face turned weakly to the other side, as if he didn't want to look at him, and there was weakness in his voice.
"Xie Siyan, I want to break up."
When Xie Siyan heard this, he felt no anger, no resentment, and no surprise; instead, it was like a stone that had been pressing on his heart for a long time suddenly fell to the ground, revealing a sense of calmness that was expected, followed by a hint of sourness.
He gritted his teeth, looked at her, and said sarcastically, "If I don't nod, do you think you can break up?"
It's that feeling again.
The long-lost threat has appeared frequently in the past few days. Mu Jia glanced at him sideways.
Seeing him exuding an icy aura, cold and icy. Cheng Yu'an's promise to her and Song Mingxi's appearance when she got married echoed in her mind. She lost all her strength and said, "Xie Siyan, you destroyed my feelings, and you got me too. If it weren't for you, I might have been married like Xie Ling..."
"Are you sorry?"
"Shouldn't I feel sorry for it?" Mu Jia had tears on her face, and her expression showed hurt. "You're still going on blind dates... Where do you put me?"
"A toy trapped in a villa, used as a vent for your animal desires every day?"
Xie Siyan's eyes darkened as he stared at her closely, "Is this what you think of me?"
Mu Jia said nothing.
The two of them seemed to be in a standoff, and in the end, Xie Siyan was defeated. He reached out and rubbed her hair, and said in a restrained tone, "I'll carry you to take a shower?"
