Chapter 978: Gambling on God's Will
Xia Sisi looked at the box of medicine and then sat in front of him.
Sun Weimeng poured her a glass of warm water and said, "Eat first, then take your medicine. Do you need me to ask for leave from the crew?"
Xia Sisi picked up her knife and fork and began to eat the tomato pasta that the hotel had sent her. She found it tasteless. She seemed to have calmed down and regained her composure.
"If you ask for leave, Yu Xue will misunderstand you."
"What's the misunderstanding?"
"I misunderstood you and I, but you're still pursuing Yu Xue now, right? I won't come here to cause you any trouble."
Sun Weimeng looked at her innocent face and said, "How can we still be connected? We were still connected just now. Are you completely denying your relationship now?"
"It's just an adult outburst, a fleeting romance. You don't have to take it to heart, but I think Yu Xue looks a bit like Miss Guan, so you must be interested in her."
When Sun Weimeng heard her words, he suddenly remembered what Yu Xue looked like.
It does look a bit like that.
But he hadn't thought about it before.
"Xia Sisi, she is not quite like you."
"Yes, it's true. She's not vain, nor does she try to get ahead. She's not a green tea like me. She should be pure and innocent in front of you."
"Why do you say that in such a sarcastic tone?"
Xia Sisi took a mouthful of noodles and said calmly, "Is there?"
She was already starving.
After such a long period of exercise, she no longer had the energy to even get angry. She spoke to Sun Weimeng in a calm and even tone.
"Are you jealous?"
"A little bit. After all, my former financial backer has become someone else's. Who wouldn't be jealous? I'm not doing very well right now either."
Sun Weimeng looked at her and said, "I noticed you've changed! You weren't like this before. Are you happy with my service? Tell me the truth, who is the best, me or Zhao Qin?"
When a man asks this kind of question, it means that he may really not have you in his heart anymore.
That's why you want to compare the abilities of your new and old loves.
Very frivolous and arrogant tone.
It makes people feel a little insulted.
Xia Sisi put down her fork, and the porcelain plate made a clinking sound.
"You really want to know?"
"Um."
"You are more powerful, Zhao Qin's time is too short."
Hearing this, Sun Weimeng was not as happy as he had imagined. However, he still pretended to be dismissive. "That's right, I have Qiao Xi who is specially conditioning me. What does Zhao Qin have? He only knows how to fight and kill. My skills are witnessed by everyone in the Haicheng Club."
"Yeah, I saw it tonight. It was pretty impressive..."
The tone is perfunctory.
Xia Sisi took a deep breath, looked at him and said, "Why are you in that bar tonight?"
"An unexpected encounter."
A smile appeared on the corner of her lips. "It's a lie, but you don't have to say it anymore. I'll just take what you said as the truth, that's all."
Sun Weimeng felt that this woman was really a bit strange.
Her attitude tonight was so strange.
It made him feel a little uneasy.
"The matter in the imperial capital should be over. When will you and Mr. Huo leave?"
"Are you coming to see us off?"
Xia Sisi shook her head. "The crew is about to wrap up filming, and after that I'm going abroad to shoot a commercial. It might take me a while, and I'm afraid I won't be able to see you off. I can only wish you a safe journey now. I hope you..."
"What do you hope for?"
"I hope everything goes well for you."
"What a perfunctory response! I thought you would say something touching." Sun Weimeng felt a little uncomfortable. He thought she would say she couldn't bear to leave.
At least there will be some retention.
But there was nothing.
Xia Sisi looked at him and said, "Actually, when I called that day... forget it."
She almost said it.
In fact, she really regretted calling Sun Weimeng that day to find out about him. She later made amends, but the person in front of her would never know.
Even if these things can make up for the scars of the past, what does it matter?
It seems that she and Sun Weimeng are not suitable to be together.
"Sun Weimeng, I'm tired and want to rest for a while."
"Okay, then remember to eat before going to bed."
"OK."
"Don't forget to take your medicine." Sun Weimeng pointed to the box of medicine on the dining table. Xia Sisi still wanted to be a movie queen, and an unexpected pregnancy would definitely cause a lot of trouble, so she had to nip everything in the bud.
They were so crazy tonight, they might actually get pregnant.
Xia Sisi smiled and asked, "What if I get pregnant?"
Sun Weimeng didn't even think twice: "Of course I'll abort it!"
"Okay, then I understand. Don't worry." I will definitely not let you be responsible.
Sun Weimeng took his cell phone and looked back every three steps, "Remember to take your medicine. I'm leaving first. If you need any help, just call me." It seemed that all the previous misunderstandings had disappeared.
But Xia Sisi felt that the relationship between them had become even more unfamiliar.
She seemed to prefer to watch Sun Weimeng quarreling with her. The words he said occasionally were very hurtful, but his words were able to reveal his true feelings.
Now... I don't have any feelings anymore.
Bang!
The hotel room door is closed.
The room became completely quiet, and the aura belonging to Sun Weimeng also dissipated.
The madness and ambiguity just now have turned into ashes, burned into a ball with nothing left.
Xia Sisi felt empty inside.
I just feel very lonely.
Very lonely.
She grew up with her brother, and her entry into the entertainment industry almost severed her relationship with her only relative.
Up to now, has she really got what she wanted?
Xia Sisi reached out and picked up the box of medicine, countless thoughts flashing through her mind.
Finally, the box of medicine was thrown into the trash can.
She wanted to be willful for once.
Find something to rely on.
This time, let’s just bet on God’s will!
…
A few days later.
The major smuggling case was finally investigated.
The Pei family had nowhere to escape, and all those suspected of smuggling were taken away, causing chaos at the docks until the Zhong family took over all of the Pei family's sales channels in the imperial capital.
Li Cheng could not escape the blame either.
All the evidence he had hidden was dug out because he had cooperated with the Pei family many times and the amount of money involved was huge.
The Li family was dragged into the abyss by him.
It is said that the old lady of the Li family was so angry that she was almost heartbroken.
He died on the way to the hospital, and the Li family lost their last hope of rising.
In addition, the wife of the Pei family, Master Pei, came out of the sanatorium and accused Pei Zheng of murder. Not only did he kill his wife, he also sent a lot of people to hunt down Zhong Yi and Qiao Xi, causing Master Zhong to be seriously injured.
The Pei family's affairs were revealed one by one.
Murder and arson, smuggling of cultural relics, tax evasion...
Pei Zheng was sentenced to life imprisonment and will spend the rest of his life in prison. Zhao Qin, the lackey, will also spend fifteen years in prison.
The fire in the imperial capital seemed to have finally burned away all the filth and dirt.
Everything is settled.
