96 Chapter 96
◎ Bloody Eight O'Clock Drama◎
Chapter 96
Surrounded by a group of rich girls, Yu Keke led Li Xinrui to the seats they occupied.
As soon as they sat down, they heard a deep and magnetic voice: "Do you mind if I sit here, Keke?"
Who is this? So tactless, openly approaching?
The rich girls immediately raised their heads with unfriendly faces and saw Ji Linghan's handsome and gentle face.
Several people: "..."
Their faces turned green, and they forcibly suppressed the expressions that wanted to find fault.
What the hell, why is he here too?
A birthday party for Xi Yue, and the eldest son Ji and this second son Ji, actually came to support it?
Or because...
They didn't dare to answer, but just cast their eyes on Yu Keke silently.
At the Ji family birthday banquet, they had heard about the three-person Shura field. The cowardly behavior of the second young master Ji made them discuss it privately for a long time.
Unexpectedly, he had not given up yet. As soon as the eldest young master Ji went upstairs, he rushed over.
Tsk tsk.
However, facing their strange and weird eyes, Ji Linghan was not affected at all. He just looked at Yu Keke, as if waiting for her reply.
Yu Keke raised her eyes and glanced at him casually.
Compared with the gentle and reserved person in the past, Ji Linghan at this time seemed to have suffered some setbacks. Although he tried his best to maintain his demeanor, his eyebrows and eyes added a bit of gloomy coldness.
If you saw him like this at first, you probably couldn't tell who was the villain. It seems
that during this period of time, not only Ji Laoer and Yu Ershu, but he has also not had an easy time.
After Ji Jingye learned about his company's industry, he must have done something.
Thinking of this, Yu Keke couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
Then she turned her head to look at Li Xinrui, as if she wanted to ask for her opinion.
Li Xinrui seemed to have not expected Ji Linghan to be here, and showed a little surprise.
But she just glanced at him twice, nodded politely to Ji Linghan, and retracted her gaze. It was as if he was adhering to the promise to stay honestly by Yu Keke's side and not express any opinions on anything at the banquet.
Yu Keke nodded: "You can do whatever you want."
So Ji Linghan really sat down calmly.
He seemed to know that his behavior was a bit strange. After sitting down, he just maintained a polite and listening attitude and stopped talking. During this time, he didn't even look in the direction of Li Xinrui.
If Xiyue hadn't confirmed that the results of the investigation were correct, she might have thought they were strangers.
She observed from a distance, and her face suddenly darkened.
Does Ji Linghan like Li Xinrui so much that he still insists on protecting her and is unwilling to expose it?
She has seen the difficulties he has encountered during this period, and she feels very distressed. However, even though he was almost suffocated by Ji Jingye, he still rejected her proposal to help him through marriage.
So it's all for Li Xinrui?
Even now, he is still trying to hide the person he really likes. Did he think that by taking the initiative to find Yu Keke, he could confuse her?
Xiyue was filled with hatred, and she almost wanted to make Li Xinrui pay the price now. By then, let's see if Ji Linghan can still stick to his love for her!
Doesn't he like her purity and innocence? She just wants to destroy this purity and force him to choose herself!
However, this swelling hatred was abruptly broken when he found that Ji Linghan was paying attention to Yu Keke from time to time, and once she spoke, his eyes would subconsciously follow her.
Even if it was acting, did it have to be played to this extent?
Moreover, during this period, Li Xinrui actually didn't care so much about Ji Linghan, just like she did when she was testing her when she made friends with her.
Originally, she thought that Li Xinrui had good acting skills, but now-
she was completely circling around Yu Keke, and was still trying to compete for favors with Yan Jing and the others!
This disappointing dog-licking look almost made Xiyue vomit blood.
How could this happen?
She had clearly seen with her own eyes how much Ji Linghan valued the red rope. The red rope was obviously worn out, but he still kept it so well.
Doesn't this prove how much he cares about the girl who gave him the red rope?
Even Ji Linghan's investment in the entertainment industry was for the purpose of protecting Li Xinrui.
And in order not to expose his purpose, he also tricked Yu Keke into the entertainment industry, under the guise of visiting the set, but actually went to see Li Xinrui.
She had thought all this through, so she hated Li Xinrui so much.
But now...
no matter how she observed, with her sharp eyesight, she couldn't see the relationship between Ji Linghan and Li Xinrui.
They really didn't interact at all.
If you really like someone, and your lover is right beside you, can you really hide it so deeply that no clues can be seen?
Ji Linghan might be able to do it, but can Li Xinrui do it too?
She could actually tolerate Ji Linghan's constant kindness to Yu Keke, and even acted very close to Yu Keke and tried to please her together?
Xi Yue couldn't understand, and her original firm determination gradually wavered.
So what the hell is going on? ?
It can't be that Ji Linghan really turned his fake love into reality during this period and fell in love with someone else!
Thinking of the scenes that she had experienced at the Ji family's birthday banquet, Xi Yue's face suddenly darkened.
...
Without knowing that she hadn't done anything yet, Xi Yue's thoughts were already jumping back and forth.
At this time, Yu Keke was still listening to gossip with great interest.
"I heard that Mr. Huang had a quarrel with his wife two days ago, and Mrs. Huang was so angry that she went back to her parents' home. As a result, the next day, Mrs. Huang's eight brothers came to teach him a lesson, but Mr. Huang didn't dare to say a word."
"Eight brothers?"
"Yes, and it is said that they are from a police family. Oh, by the way, it seems that two of them are prosecutors and lawyers."
"... This, it's no wonder that Mr. Huang is frightened."
"I did hear something. I heard that Mr. Wu is getting married soon, and the object seems to be a female Internet celebrity. I wonder if it is true?"
"I know this. My father has cooperated with Mr. Wu and has received an invitation letter. Mr. Wu likes that Internet celebrity very much, but I always feel that there is something weird about her." "
Even if I haven't met her, I think there is a problem. You said Mr. Wu is a very honest person, how come he has been deceived several times, but he still doesn't give up looking for an Internet celebrity." "
Ahem, I heard that it's because Mr. Wu is not good-looking, so he wants to find a good-looking one to improve the genes of his offspring."
"Does he have to be an internet celebrity? Although he's not good-looking, he's got some money. Isn't it easy to find a pretty one? I think it's better to find someone from the entertainment industry."
"Maybe the two circles are different, and Mr. Wu likes those from the internet celebrity circle?" Yu
Keke was eating melon seeds when she suddenly became interested: "You said he was cheated several times? What happened?"
Everyone looked at each other and said in unison: "Actually, he was cheated in his relationship."
"It is said that the first person Mr. Wu met online was a woman dressed as a man, and the second time he met a shemale who came back from ML." "
Later, he learned his lesson and decided not to have online relationships anymore. Instead, he admired internet celebrities and became the top brother on the list."
"As a result, the looks and beauty of the girls he dated were very different from those of the girls he had seen on social media. One of them was a 200-pound middle-aged woman dressed like a lolita. Mr. Wu was so scared that
he cancelled his account and ran away overnight." "When he was drinking with his partners that day, he suddenly burst into tears. He said that he just wanted to find someone who was good-looking and met his aesthetic standards, and he was not afraid that the girl was only after his money. In the end, he couldn't get what he wanted... He cried so hard that the group of people comforted him until midnight."
"If you ask me, it's just that Mr. Wu has a bad taste. Other CEOs also like to date Internet celebrities, but they are all beautiful women, but Mr. Wu, the ones he likes are all like this... And he doesn't listen to advice, doesn't accept other people's recommendations, and just wants to find one on his own."
"Yes, there are so many precedents, so we feel that the wedding date is not reliable now."
Yu Keke: [......? ]
She leaned back in shock: [Good man, don't talk about them, I am a little doubtful now. With Mr. Wu's physique, can he really do it this time? ]
System: [Then it is indeed not possible. ]
Yu Keke was immediately refreshed: [Quick, tell me about it? ]
[The one Mr. Wu found is really very beautiful and meets his aesthetic taste. ] The system explained, [But this female internet celebrity is not only after his money, but also after he can take over. ]
Yu Keke was not surprised. Since there is no problem with the appearance, there must be something else.
She concluded: [This is a typical relationship where you have had enough fun outside and just want to settle down and find an honest man. 】
System: 【That's not the case. She's still having a lot of fun outside, and even plans to have some exciting fun with her friends on the night of her wedding.】
Yu Keke: ???
Damn, what kind of exciting pornographic comic is this? !
She suddenly widened her eyes and almost choked on melon seeds. She took a sip of the juice that Li Xinrui hurriedly handed over, and then she calmed down.
She asked quickly: 【Is she really that fierce? Aren't you afraid that Mr. Wu will find out? ?】
The system cleared its throat and said tactfully: 【Anyway, the wedding is coming soon, she has had a lot of fun, you know.】
Yu Keke's eyelids twitched: 【No way, she's having so much fun? This is too exciting, it's simply a pre-wedding orgy! 】
The system continued to add: 【And until now, Mr. Wu has not noticed anything, and he even boasted to his partners that his vision was finally right this time. 】
No wonder they didn't notice it so often, and they were not worried about the wedding night, but wanted to challenge more exciting places.
When Yu Keke figured it out, she couldn't help but complain: 【...This is really awesome. Mr. Wu probably has something in common with Assistant Wen. 】
After thinking about it, she changed her words: 【No, he seems to be a little worse than Assistant Wen. 】
System:?
It couldn't help but complain: 【Even if you make such a comparison, Assistant Wen won't be happy about it. 】
Yu Keke pretended not to hear it, and took a sip of juice from the cup to suppress her surprise.
The group changed the topic again and continued to chat about gossip.
"Come to think of it, I also remembered something outrageous. Do you remember Miss Xing bragging to us about her love affair?"
"Hey, I remember she had a gigolo? And it was a younger male with eight-pack abs."
"Oh, they were in a relationship in name, but wasn't she the one keeping him?"
"Don't change the subject. Didn't Miss Xing break up later? I saw her post on WeChat Moments the other day saying she was cheated and seemed mad as hell." "
What do you mean mad as hell? She was obviously very happy. She actually suddenly found out that day that she was dating twins, and the two brothers had been hiding it from her and were taking turns dating her."
"......Ah? Really, there is such a good thing?"
Yu Keke's eyes suddenly widened: "Is this possible?"
System: [It's really possible, Miss Xing can't let go of either of them, so he just keeps them all.]
Yu Keke: [...The happiness of rich people is sometimes really unexpected.]
Just as she was sighing, she suddenly heard someone say: "This is not outrageous, I think the most outrageous is still Yan Jing's family--"
"Ahem!"
Yan Jing, who was peeling melon seeds for Yu Keke, suddenly coughed twice when she saw that the situation was not good.
After covering up the man's voice, she looked over with a fake smile: "Can you guys do it? You've been talking about old gossip for a long time, which is not interesting at all."
Everyone:?
Just when they were about to retort, they heard Yan Jing clear her throat modestly: "Speaking of twins, of course the He family's story is the most exciting. Has Miss Yu heard about it?"
Several people: "......!"
Of course they knew about the He family's story. Wasn't it planned to talk about it step by step and save the most exciting part for the end? Who knew that they would be beaten to the punch and start with the heavy weapons and big news.
Yan Jing simply has no moral principles!
But Yu Keke was obviously interested: "What happened in the He family?"
Yan Jing: "Mrs. He gave birth to twins. But when the twins were seven years old, the younger sister was accidentally lost when they ran out to play, and only the older sister came back."
Others added in unison: "Not long ago, after the He family found the younger sister, there was a big commotion at home."
"It is said that the boss who was originally pursuing the older sister now likes the younger sister."
"Could it be that the sisters both fell in love with the boss, but he didn't know how to choose, so there was a particularly fierce commotion?"
"No, no, the version I heard was that when the younger sister was still wandering outside, she was the canary raised by the boss. Unexpectedly, she was found by the He family, so the sisters had a big commotion."
Yu Keke: [......? 】
She immediately became excited after hearing this and commented:【She got lost in childhood and was found by accident. Isn't this the standard for a miserable heroine? Add to that the sisterly rivalry, the love triangle between the white moonlight boss and the double... my goodness, this is simply a collection of all the melodramatic elements.】
She thought for a moment and added:【If the sister was accidentally lost at the time, and it was the sister who did it, it would be more like the old sadomasochistic idol dramas.】
System:【Then you are really right.】
Yu Keke:?
She reacted quickly and widened her eyes in shock:【Really? You mean me? Is it true that the sister deliberately lost the sister? ?】
System:【Although the He sisters are twins, the elder sister has always been disgusted with the younger sister and feels that she has taken away half of her parents' love. So that day, after she took her sister out to play, she saw someone take her sister away with her own eyes, but she didn't say anything, but ran back secretly. 】
If I remember correctly, they were only seven years old at that time.
Yu Keke gasped: [This plot...isn't it really some bloody eight o'clock drama? If the original plot is put here, it will lose. 】
System: [There are even more bloody ones. 】
Before Yu Keke asked, she heard Yan Jing suddenly say: "You are all wrong."
She rolled her eyes and said smugly: "My maid niece's brother-in-law's aunt works in the He family. I have already figured out this gossip. It is not what is circulated outside."
Several people looked at each other, and immediately pushed her excitedly, asking her to quickly explain what was going on.
[Wow. 】Yu Keke also cast an admiring look, [I said at the beginning that Yan Jing definitely has a talent for eating melons, and now it has really been revealed.]
The system agreed very much: [This matter of the He family is really strange. Yan Jing can figure it out. She really has a talent in this area.]
Hearing it say this, she was even more looking forward to it.
"Miss He is actually Mr. Building's favorite for many years. It is said that she saved him when he was a child. This is a deep connection." Yan Jing said mysteriously, "So it was for Miss He that Mr. Building was willing to help the He family through the crisis."
"But I didn't expect that the King of Xiang was interested but the girl was not. Miss He was just hanging on to him. After the crisis of the He family was resolved, she went abroad to study. So Mr. Building privately found a substitute who looked very similar to her sister to relieve his longing."
Yu Keke: [...? ]
She seemed to understand what the system meant.
This plot... is really old-fashioned, very eight o'clock drama! !
The others also understood a little: "Could this stand-in be the second Miss He?"
"Of course, otherwise where can we find someone so similar. They are twins." Seeing their shocked faces, Yan Jing waved her hand nonchalantly, "This is nothing, the more exciting things are still to come."
"When the younger sister is found, the elder sister will return to the country. Mr. Lou then realized that it was the younger sister who saved him, but when he came to find her, the younger sister had already been lost, and the elder sister actually accepted the life-saving grace on behalf of the younger sister."
Everyone: !!!
"Oh my god, so intense?"
"So the so-called bond is actually between Mr. Lou and Miss He? As a result, because Miss He insisted, the real savior became a substitute?"
"This is too bloody! No wonder the He family is in such a mess."
Compared to their deep shock, Yu Keke had guessed the plot halfway through.
However, she thought about it and couldn't help showing a subtle expression: [To be honest, isn't this really pointing at someone? ]
Although it's not so bloody, but they were also separated by a bond in childhood, and the man has always been obsessed with the woman, and has engraved her in his heart like a white moonlight for so many years.
Why does it feel like it's referring to that person?
She turned her head subconsciously, and sure enough, she saw two people who seemed unusually silent and out of place in the heated discussion.
Li Xinrui: "..."
Ji Linghan: "..."
She always felt that this story was somewhat familiar, and the two of them looked at each other subconsciously, somewhat like a mirror.
And for some reason, they looked away as if avoiding.
She didn't expect that there would be so many gossips in the circle of wealthy families, and each one was even more shocking to her worldview than the other.
Li Xinrui's eyes widened, and she always felt that she could always see something different around Sister Coco.
And in this trance, she suddenly heard the story of the He family.
Especially in connection with herself, she didn't know why, but she subconsciously thought a little guilty: she seemed to have a childhood playmate, although the memory was not very deep... The most important thing is, did Mr. Ji recognize the wrong person?
Ji Linghan's expression was even more subtle.
Since he had worked with Mr. Lou privately, he had naturally heard about the He family's affairs a long time ago. He even re-investigated the orphanage at the first opportunity.
However, after making sure that he had not found the wrong person, he not only did not breathe a sigh of relief, but felt inexplicably empty in his heart.
He didn't even know why.
Until he suddenly heard Li Xinrui sighing in a low voice: "So, in fact, the feelings generated by childhood memories don't seem to be so reliable."
Ji Linghan finally couldn't help but turned his head to look at her.
Li Xinrui was leaning next to Yu Keke, and expressed her opinion seriously: "I can understand friendship, but we are all still young. We only met once and then parted, and we didn't even have time to get along more. Can that kind of feelings really be generated?"
Hearing her thoughts, Yu Keke asked with interest: "What if it was you?"
Ji Linghan's eyes dimmed, as if he was also waiting for her answer.
"If it was me... To be honest, I can't imagine it." Li Xinrui thought about it and said a little embarrassedly, "I shouldn't have that kind of feelings just because we met a few times when we were young... It should be friendship at most."
"After all, the time we spent together was too short, I don't think I know each other well enough. What's more, after such a long time, how can I know if the other person has changed? So if we fall in love like this, it feels a little irresponsible?"
Ji Linghan: "..."
Strangely, after hearing what she said, he didn't feel uncomfortable, but a little relieved.
Maybe he had expected it.
Li Xinrui had never expressed her affection for him, and always thought that he was just a friend she met again in childhood. Even because of his deliberate protection and alienation, the two of them could not get along more, let alone enhance their relationship.
Especially later, Li Xinrui seemed to have noticed something and deliberately distanced herself from him...
They really hadn't been in touch for a long time.
Thinking about it carefully, in fact, at some point, Ji Linghan's obsession with her seemed to have gradually dissipated in this inexplicable tacit understanding.
What's more, after Yu Er escaped and the female secretary suddenly turned against him, he had a bad premonition.
And the subsequent suppression from Ji Jingye was just to make this intuition come true.
He was ready to fail, and he didn't intend to involve anyone anymore.
Therefore, exposing their relationship would only make Li Xinrui feel troubled. It would be better to keep a distance from her and watch her get better and better from afar. This is the best choice and protection.
And the inexplicable emptiness he once felt might be the realization.
After all the twists and turns until now, he actually got nothing. In the end, he just ended up with nothing, right?
Ji Linghan suddenly smiled.
He came here this time just out of reluctance, and wanted to see Yu Keke one last time.
But he didn't expect Li Xinrui to be invited by Xiyue -
he knew Xiyue's methods.
So, he wouldn't let her succeed. And getting rid of her is probably his last protection for Li Xinrui.
As for Yu Keke...she would be happier without him.
Not to mention that Ji Jingye is guarding her. Just like a dragon guarding its treasure, he would never let her suffer or be bullied.
Ji Linghan was ready to face the final failure.
