Chapter 109 Are all you men such scumbags?
109.
Outside the restaurant.
Neon lights cast flickering reflections on the road.
Song Mingxi walked quickly through the revolving door in high heels.
Zhou Xu followed closely behind and reached out to grab her wrist.
"Why are you pulling me?"
Song Mingxi suddenly shook off his hand, turned around and said angrily, "Isn't it just what you want me to come out?"
The pearl bracelet broke when it was pulled.
The beads rolled all over the floor.
Zhou Xu subconsciously bent down to pick it up, but she pushed him away.
"Zhou Xu!" Song Mingxi's voice was filled with rare anger. "I saw it all. There's no need to hide it."
She and Zhou Xu had a marriage agreement and slept together.
According to the frequency of his previous girlfriends, he should have changed two during this period. But now he stays at home with her every day. Of course, she is not naive to think that her charm is so great that Aquaman has changed his personality.
She was just confused.
And just now, she finally knew the reason.
——It turned out that he was his good friend who was helping him, keeping a close watch on the matter, fearing that he would disrupt his good fortune of having two wives.
She lowered her head, picked up the pearls twice, and then gave up, rubbing her red wrist. "I heard half of what you said in the bathroom."
The car on the way back was eerily silent.
When they got home, Zhou Xu tentatively explained, "Si Yan has his own difficulties..."
"So, he and Shen Xingchu?"
"Maybe, perhaps, probably," Zhou Xu irritably untied his collar and threw his tie directly onto the sofa. "We're getting engaged."
As soon as these words came out, it was like dropping a nuclear bomb.
Song Mingxi jumped up from the sofa.
"They are about to get engaged," she asked loudly, her voice trembling slightly, "Xie Siyan is still locking Mu Jia up, what is he thinking..."
"No, I want to tell Jia Jia about this!"
When Zhou Xu heard this, he jumped up from the sofa, threw away his suit jacket in annoyance, and reached out to hug her, but was avoided.
"Ancestor, can you please let me off the hook?"
"We're still busy with our own things, can you please stop interfering in other people's private affairs?" Zhou's mother's urging for marriage came every day, and he was extremely worried...
Song Mingxi shook his head, grabbed the key and walked towards the door.
Zhou Xu hurriedly stopped her, "Where are you going so late?"
"Mu Jia is my friend."
She pushed his hand away, her eyes determined, "I can't bear to see her being kept in the dark."
——
The red sports car slowly stopped outside the villa area.
Song Mingxi's knuckles turned white as he gripped the steering wheel. He hadn't recovered from the shock of the news just now.
The words echoed in her head: Xie Siyan is getting engaged!
What should Mu Jia do if he finds out?
She really hated herself. At the beginning, she had encouraged her to play around, but during this period, she saw her anxiety and fear...
The high beams illuminated the roses entwined on the wrought iron gate.
Outside Shenghai No. 1 Villa on Huaian East Road, Song Mingxi sat in a sports car and took out his cell phone. The address book stopped at the name 'Mu Jia' for a long time.
The shadows of the trees sway outside the car window.
When Mu Jia received her call in the villa, Ji Ruqing was visiting her for the second examination. The content of the examination was a bit embarrassing, and she moved around uncomfortably on the examination bed.
The phone was brought to her ear, and Song Mingxi asked directly, "How are you getting along with Xie Siyan recently?"
"good."
Mu Jia thought she was just asking casually and showing concern for her.
She has come to her senses recently.
She couldn't get out anyway.
According to Shen Xingchu's age, Xie Siyan wouldn't have anything to do with her. He wouldn't be out with Shen Xingchu during the day and then come back to sleep with her every night... Could his body handle it?
So, she has nothing to worry about now.
Song Mingxi was confused by her attitude. Zhou Xu happened to be driving after her and saw her car parked outside Xie Siyan's villa from a distance. He got out of the car and dragged her away from the villa door.
Song Mingxi angrily punched him in the chest, but Zhou Xu quickly caught it. "Are all your men such scumbags?" she said with red eyes.
Zhou Xu glanced at her.
He didn't know how to respond to this.
If I have to say, Xie Siyan might be one of the men who keeps himself clean and has few ex-girlfriends.
As someone who had dated over a dozen girlfriends, Zhou Xu suddenly felt that referring to Xie Siyan and him as "you men" was a bit insulting to Xie Siyan...
"Let's talk about it when we get home."
He directly carried the person up and stuffed him into the passenger seat.
When he glanced at the recent call log on his phone, his tone became more anxious, "Have you told her?"
Song Mingxi covered her face and shed tears sadly for a while before she said in a muffled voice, "No."
"That's good."
Zhou Xu didn't return the phone to her, but put it in his pocket and drove straight towards the bridal chamber.
——
Xie Siyan came home late, which was unusual for him.
In Xie's house, the study.
"Mr. Xie, the Cheng family is gradually withdrawing their investment from the cooperative project between China Construction and the Cheng family."
The assistant's voice came through the receiver, "The Cheng family unilaterally proposed to terminate the contract. They found some loopholes in the contract and don't want to pay the penalty."
The Cheng family proposed...
Xie Siyan lowered his eyes and suddenly felt that the things in his hands were beginning to get out of his control one by one.
There was a sudden knock on the door.
After three knocks on the door, the door opened from the inside and Xie Ling appeared in Xie Siyan's sight.
"elder brother."
Her voice was as light as a feather falling to the ground, and her eyes dodged. "Can you help me check where he is?"
Xie Siyan made way for her, walked straight back to the desk, and asked casually, "Who?"
"Chen Fu Ji."
The pen left a sharp mark of ink on the paper.
Xie Siyan took off his glasses and folded the temples. He glanced at Xie Ling and said, "He's in the hospital."
His eyes swept over his sister's instantly pale face and added, "She is recuperating at the Mayo Clinic in the United States."
Xie Ling's fingers suddenly clenched the hem of her skirt.
"Is he... okay now?"
"You need to ask the medical center about this," Xie Siyan closed the document and reminded him with a brotherly attitude, "There are other people you should be concerned about."
He glanced meaningfully at the remaining ring mark on her ring finger and said, "Don't you need me to remind you?"
As the sun sets, the study becomes dark.
Xie Ling stared at the ground and took a deep breath: "I'm divorced."
The air suddenly froze.
Xie Siyan's pupils shrank slightly - he suddenly understood why the Cheng family was so decisive in handling the project.
No one knew better than him how much was at stake in the marriage between the Cheng and Xie families. He slowly stood up, his shadow looming over Xie Ling, and asked, "Does the Cheng family agree?"
"My aunt supports my divorce," Xie Ling said, not daring to look her brother in the eye. She only spoke softly, "The Cheng family also... has no objection."
