Chapter 137 A man will take the initiative only if he likes someone
Xie Siyan placed one hand on the steering wheel and casually loosened his collar with the other hand.
In the rearview mirror.
A slender figure was walking towards them from afar.
Xie Ling was carrying a wicker flower basket, and the hem of her light-colored skirt was gently lifted by the evening breeze. The housekeeper followed her respectfully, holding a few freshly cut white roses in his hands. The two of them walked over from next door.
Xie Siyan stared at the figure for a while.
"Xie Ling." He raised his hand to lower the car window and said in a low voice, "I'll give you a ride."
The girl was visibly stunned.
The lilies of the valley in the basket swayed gently with her movements.
She subconsciously glanced at the butler, who immediately understood and took a half step back.
"No thanks, brother." Xie Ling shook her head, the wind ruffling her hair around her ears. She made an excuse, "I have a friend for tea..."
Xie Siyan's gaze lingered on her slightly flustered expression for a moment, and he tapped the steering wheel twice with his index finger: "Get in the car." His tone brooked no refusal.
Xie Ling bit her lip and finally opened the back door.
The lily of the valley in the flower basket was placed on the seat next to me, emitting a refreshing fragrance that blended with the scent of agarwood in the car.
Xie Ling fastened his seat belt obediently.
The car soon fell into silence.
Xie Siyan tapped the steering wheel with his bony fingers and asked casually, "What are you busy with lately?"
"Dance studio, occasionally..."
Xie Ling lowered her head and began to arrange the lilies of the valley in the flower basket. She said softly, "Let's go see Sister Yirou."
Xie Siyan controlled the steering wheel with one hand and the car quickly drove into the main road.
His gaze fell on the rapidly receding sycamore tree outside the window, and he suddenly said, "Chen Fuji is getting engaged."
"What?!"
Xie Ling looked up suddenly, and the flower basket was knocked over, with most of the lilies of the valley inside scattered.
She hurriedly bent down to pick it up, but her hands were out of control. She straightened the flower basket clumsily, raised her face, and met Xie Siyan's gaze from afar through the rearview mirror.
Xie Ling realized her own misstep and bit her lower lip. In a voice so low it was almost inaudible, she asked her brother, "...With whom?"
Xie Siyan looked at her deeply through the rearview mirror.
The gaze behind the lenses was scrutinizing, and the voice was casual as he asked, "You don't know?"
His voice was very soft, but like a sharp knife: "The invitation from the Jiang family has been sent to me."
The Jiang family...
Xie Ling only felt a buzzing sound in his ears, and the following words all turned into vague noises.
Chen Fu Ji is getting engaged to Jiang Yao.
The two of them brought each other together themselves.
This realization was like a blow to her heart, which had just begun to feel the budding love.
She no longer cared about the lily of the valley. The basket was thrown askew on the seat next to her. Her hands were tightly gripping the hem of her skirt, and her knuckles were white.
Those thoughts that had not yet been expressed were nipped in the bud.
A suffocating silence fell in the car.
Xie Siyan tapped his slender fingers on the steering wheel twice and suddenly changed the subject: "The bodyguard who went with you to LA last time has returned."
His tone returned to its usual coldness, "Don't lose your temper again and leave people at the airport."
Xie Ling said "Oh" dully, feeling lost and full of worries.
——
Xie Ling did not return to the dance studio. She let Xie Siyan take her back to the apartment and then slowly got out of the car.
She returned to her apartment, threw herself under the covers, and cried herself to sleep.
When I woke up again, it was already midnight.
Xie Ling hadn't eaten yet, but later realized she was a little hungry. She ordered a fruit platter for herself, lay on the bed, and found the number of the "Emotional Master" she had consulted before, and replied to him.
Xie: You guessed it right.
Xie: However, I am the one from a better-off family.
[Emotional Master] took several minutes to reply.
Love: Little sister, please wait a moment, let me review our previous chat.
What followed was a long period of "typing". Xie Ling could almost imagine the other person on the other end of the network scratching his head and looking through the chat history.
"He's rich, the most beautiful girl on the campus of the Southern Arts Academy, and he still refuses to take responsibility after sleeping with her... No, he's been through drug rehabilitation, right?"
Xie Ling, “…”
Xie Ling grabbed the sheets with a frown on her face. She didn't know whether he had ever quit drugs, but she was sure that she would have to go to quit drugs soon.
Chen Fu Ji is getting engaged.
What should she do?
Xie Ling's fingertips hovered above the screen, not knowing how to respond for a moment.
She froze for a moment, and clearly felt her eyes turning red again, so she ran out of bed, went to the bathroom and put on a facial mask, so that she wouldn't be able to see the tears anymore.
Covering one's ears and stealing the bell!
When Xie Ling sat back on the bed, she saw the ultimate advice from the emotional guru: [Then sleep with him again. If he doesn't say anything else, lie on his chest and let him take responsibility.
I don’t believe that there are any men in this world who have ever quit drugs!
By the way, I lied to you before. I used a voice changer. I'm actually the older brother, not the older sister. Believe me, I understand men best.
Xie Ling was shocked when he read this.
She tilted her head and looked at the screen. This time she really doubted her IQ. How could this emotional master who was known for his delicate emotions and friendliness towards female clients be a big toe-picking guy behind the screen?
Xie Ling couldn't help but feel embarrassed when she thought about this fact, but she still managed to be patient. Xie: ...Is there a simpler way to do it?
Affection:?
Qing: Isn’t this method simple?
Two weeks later, the two got in touch again.
This time, the Master of Emotions already had an impression of Xie Ling——
She is beautiful, rich, and proactive.
As a man, he wouldn't come across even one such client among a thousand.
Therefore, the emotional master didn't need to look through the chat records to quickly recognize who she was. How could he not encounter such a fairy?
He thought carefully and suddenly discovered a little detail.
So he sent an emoji of someone touching their chin in thought, "Wait, you said you've slept together before, and you still think this is difficult to control... Could it be that he was the one who took the initiative before?"
Xie Ling, “…”
"Little sister, a man will only take the initiative if he likes someone. Don't worry, he definitely likes you!!!"
The master of emotions sent several voice messages in succession.
Xie Ling listened to the male voice on the phone, analyzing everything for her, jumping up and down. "Think about it, if he doesn't let you take responsibility, it means he's not after your family property. And if he takes the initiative to sleep with you, then he can only be after you as a person!"
"I swear on my $250 an hour consulting fee, he's definitely interested in you!"
Xie Ling held his cell phone, lost in deep thought.
Does Chen Fu Ji really like her?
The two met when they were young. In her impression, he has always been very good to her, always responding to her requests and helping her achieve whatever she wants.
But she wanted to pursue Cheng Yu'an and asked him for help, and he did his best to help her achieve her goal.
Xie Ling bit her lip. It seemed that the relationship between them was still a continuation of the previous generation - his mother was the Xie family's nanny who brought her up; his late father was the Xie family's driver.
Their whole family serves the Xie family and is an employee of the Xie family.
It looked like he was just doing his duty and obeying her orders.
