Chapter 19 You Fell in Love with Him
Mu Jia called Song Mingxi out and asked about Zhang Heng.
There's no way, among her friends, he is the only one who is in the same circle as them.
Fortunately, Song Mingxi felt very sorry about what happened that day, and answered almost every question without reservation.
"Jia Jia, don't worry," she said to comfort her, "I don't think Zhang Heng would dare to provoke Xie Siyan."
She shared the secret she had gotten from her brother with her: "The last trending topic was about him beating up a male celebrity. It wasn't that simple."
Song Mingxi gestured. "You know, Zhang Heng is... in short, in their circle, they like to have some excitement. It's said that time, it wasn't just a male celebrity being beaten to the hospital, but someone died. It took a lot of money and connections to settle it. He's in the center of the storm, and everyone in the circle knows it. Why would he recruit Xie Siyan now?"
After saying this, Mu Jia felt a little relieved.
-
Life passes uneventfully.
Mu Jia couldn't figure out his own psychology. Bai Yirou always appeared in his mind inexplicably. He even turned on the computer during working hours to spy on her.
Maybe it’s because Song Mingxi is also in the upper class, but he is approachable. Bai Yirou is different. The people around her blatantly show off their wealth, which gives people the impression of a huge class gap.
Mu Jia felt that his mentality was quite unhealthy.
How can you be envious and jealous just because the bar is booked out?
A colleague saw this and asked curiously, "Are you also following this blogger? She hasn't updated for over a year."
On the open computer screen, there is that beauty account: [Sharing All the Beauty in July]
"Beauty blogger, the most complete color test..." From the video, we can see that foundation, lipstick, lip gloss...she loves all kinds of the latest cosmetics.
Her character is a gentle and generous rich girl, with white hands, all with beautiful manicures, and a very delicate face.
No wonder Xie Siyan thought she didn't look good with makeup on. At the wedding banquet, he even came over to mock her for her plain appearance.
It turns out that the person we were talking about before was a beauty expert. Didn’t he look down on her?
Mu Jia felt very sour.
After feeling jealous, she felt that she was mentally abnormal. When Cheng Yu'an got engaged, she was so sad that she didn't even go to see Xie Ling.

The next date with Song Mingxi was on Sunday.
As soon as Song Mingxi entered the room, he said loudly: "Congratulations, Teng Zhi and Xie Siyan broke up."
Mu Jia was cooking in the kitchen at the time. Hearing the voice, he raised his head softly and asked, "What do you mean?"
Song Mingxi changed into slippers and entered the house.
Place your bag at the entrance.
"Maybe something happened, and Teng Zhi couldn't stand him anymore. So they broke up. Teng Zhi quickly changed her partner and is said to be getting married soon."
Song Mingxi stopped at the counter behind her, picked up a peanut and ate it, his eyes wandering over her: "I think the only possibility is you."
"I?"
Mu Jia was a little confused.
"Jia Jia, think about it, he took you away directly from the drinking party that day. In your financial circle, there might be someone who knows Teng Zhi."
"—Isn't this just like slapping her in the face?"
After finishing his meal, Song Mingxi asked her again, "Honestly, have you ever thought about being with him seriously? Anyway, his blind date has broken up and he has no one around him."
"And I can absolutely assure you that his private life is very clean. Apart from... that woman, he has no other women. As for exes, everyone has one."
“…”
Seven years.
As Mu Jia cut vegetables, the number resurfaced in her mind. She felt that it couldn't be called an ex, but a criminal record.
Tengzhi’s choice was indeed the right one.
I'm not afraid of a scumbag, but I'm afraid of a scumbag who is also affectionate - only affectionate to one woman and a scumbag to other women.
Who in their right mind would choose a man who has been in a relationship for seven years?
It's not like half of your brain is missing.

"What are you thinking about?"
Song Mingxi came over again.
Mu Jia is making pork ribs and old duck soup.
The casserole on the stove was bubbling with steam, and a wisp of white mist came out from the gap, carrying a rich aroma and filling the kitchen.
The soup is a clear light golden color with a thin layer of oil floating on the surface.
A few pieces of bone-in duck meat sank to the bottom of the pot, already stewed till tender. Floating beside them were a few red dates, already soaked up the broth.
Song Mingxi glanced into the pot and said, "Jia Jia, whoever marries you will be blessed."
As he said that, he came over with a bowl and said, "Are you ready? Give me a bowl."
-
Mu Jia didn't expect that after gossiping about Teng Zhi, he would meet her the next day.
Genting Restaurant.
She looked in good shape, wearing a camel coat and an ostrich leather kelly. The man opposite her was tall and handsome.
But his style is different from Xie Siyan's.
Mu Jia followed Song Mingxi and sat down at a table far away from her, trying to hear the conversation clearly.
But unfortunately, the distance is too far.
-
The man's eyes fell on the jade green bracelet and he raised an eyebrow: "Is this the one you accompanied Mrs. Xie to pick out?"
Teng Zhi looked down at her wrist.
"Don't waste your time. Xie Siyan looks down on you." The man's voice was cold, sarcastic, and full of malice: "He picked you because you are promiscuous enough. He has the right handle to dump you at the right time...
How could he let you into the Xie family?
Your most urgent task now should be to hold on to me as a lifeline. Not all men don't mind your promiscuous history."
-
Mu Jia didn't know what they were talking about.
But she didn’t know if it was a woman’s sixth sense, but she always felt that Teng Zhi’s expression was not right, not like she was in the passionate love period.
After the two finished their meal, they left hand in hand soon.
Song Mingxi looked at her expression and said, "It's over. You've fallen in love."
Mu Jia turned his head, "What."
Just now she was thinking about Teng Zhi, it didn't matter what she said.
“Your face now shows that you want to know about Teng Zhi.
Since you and Teng Zhi are just ordinary superiors and subordinates, the purpose of spying on Teng Zhi is nothing more than to find out about her relationship with Xie Siyan——"
"You're in love with him."
Song Mingxi concluded casually.
Mu Jia's fingers tightened unconsciously, and the napkin crumpled in her palm. She denied it flatly: "I didn't, you think too much."
"Okay, even if I'm overthinking it," Song Mingxi said, "I'm sure your curiosity just now was just a sudden impulse—?"
Mu Jia: “…”
Mu Jia could only change the subject abruptly, "Bai Yirou...are they still in touch?"
"Yes," Song Mingxi recalled, "Bai Yirou not only had a good relationship with Madam Xie, but also had a special relationship with Xie Ling. It is said that Bai Yirou had a weak health as a child and could not adapt to the climate in the south of the Yangtze River, so she was raised in the Xie family in the north. She grew up with Xie Siyan and Xie Ling. Well, they were childhood sweethearts. Think about that relationship. It's not family, but it's better than family."
Mu Jia felt that there was something wrong with his mentality. He didn't want to listen, but he was still looking for self-torture.
"Xixi, I have to go back after dinner today. I have a form to summarize."
