Chapter 114 Afraid Your Husband Would Misunderstand
Shen Yixiao's reaction seemed irritable and childish.
He stood between me and Xu Zhengnan, his whole body burning with anger, and his attitude was extremely bad, "Xu Zhengnan, if you lose, you lose. If you want to win back a game, it's impossible. Don't make these meaningless struggles!"
I knew what he meant, and my cheeks instantly felt hot, and I was too embarrassed to face anyone.
As expected, Xu Zhengnan replied indifferently, "What are you talking about? What did you lose?"
"Li Yue has already married me. Do you think it's meaningful for you to get close to her? Isn't investing in Lighting just to get revenge on me? The defeated enemy is making a comeback after many years, haha." Shen Yixiao seemed to have found a trace of confidence, and he sneered.
Lian Qingqing widened her eyes, looking shocked.
Of course she knew that Xu Zhengnan and I grew up together. Before I was with Shen Yixiao, Xu Zhengnan and I were what others called childhood sweethearts.
But we never confirmed our relationship, and I was always the one who took the initiative to follow Xu Zhengnan.
After so many years, Shen Yixiao is still fussing over past events, so it's normal for Qingqing to be shocked.
Even I find it baffling.
Xu Zhengnan's eyes were dark, and his tone was mixed with a hint of sarcasm, "She and I have never been together. Are you jealous?"
Yes, we have never been together, I know that in my heart, but when I heard his words at this moment, I still felt a little sad.
It sounds like he doesn't care at all, so that's why he's like this.
I confessed to Xu Zhengnan openly and secretly, but he never took it to heart. It's all in vain to bring it up now.
"We've never been together, but have you never liked each other?" Shen Yixiao sneered.
I saw Xu Zhengnan's eyes suddenly darken, and the sarcastic smile on his face disappeared. "Since you don't welcome me today, there's no need for me to spend money to come here. Lian Qingqing, let's go."
Walk? Millions just gone like that?
I was shocked. Money is the most important thing to me right now.
Just as I was about to call out to Xu Zhengnan, Shen Yixiao turned around and looked at me coldly, as if warning me.
I swallowed the words that were on the tip of my tongue, and felt furious and aggrieved.
“Xiao Lin, you and the others go eat.” I looked at the time and asked all the employees in the store to go eat first. After they left, I looked at Shen Yixiao angrily.
He also looked unhappy and asked me gloomily, "If I hadn't come today, would you really have planned to receive Xu Zhengnan?"
"Opening the door to do business, should I turn people away? Shen Yixiao, you can't get along with money?" I was very annoyed and my voice was very loud.
Shen Yixiao asked angrily, "Are you short of money? Are we short of money? I opened this store for you to kill time, not for you to have a secret meeting with your old lover!"
“Bang!”
I couldn't bear it anymore, so I slapped Shen Yixiao for the first time.
In my previous life, even though he brought Lu Xiaoyun into our home, I didn't even slap him because I couldn't have children. I just cried and tore his clothes.
Shen Yixiao looked at me in shock, disbelief flashing in his eyes. He never expected that I would hit him.
He was stunned for a few seconds, then burst into anger, "Li Yue, are you crazy?!"
He looked so angry that if I were someone else, I would probably be beaten to death by him.
I am still scared and regret being so impulsive. If anything goes wrong from this slap, it will only bring me into big trouble.
"Xu Zhengnan and I are innocent, but you keep throwing dirty water on me. You're going too far!"
I spoke with gritted teeth, looking directly into Shen Yixiao's eyes without avoiding them.
Shen Yixiao clenched his fists in anger. He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't you think your reaction is suspicious? The more you act like this, the more I think you and him are unclear. You liked him for so long in the beginning. Do you dare to say that you don't have him in your heart at all now?"
I answered simply, “I didn’t.”
Shen Yixiao sneered, looked at me deeply, and then turned and left the store.
I breathed a sigh of relief, but was also upset. After the shop assistants came back, I went to my own tea room and sat down. After thinking it over, I sent a message to Xu Zhengnan: I'm sorry about what happened just now. If you need tea sets, I can also send you pictures and information.
Xu Zhengnan: No need, I’m afraid your husband will misunderstand.
I:……
This answer left me speechless for a moment. I picked up and put my phone down several times, not knowing how to respond.
If I get this big order from Xu Zhengnan, I can earn at least half of it, and after deducting various expenses, it will still be considerable.
I don't want to live a hard life abroad. In a foreign country, money is more important. It won't be wrong to save as much as possible.
Xu Zhengnan: I want to see the real thing.
He sent me another message. After reading the content, my depressed mood instantly became excited again.
Me: OK, can you come back?
Xu Zhengnan didn't reply to me, and I suddenly felt a little worried. Should I have replied in that way? Facing a big customer, I should be more enthusiastic and thoughtful, and offer to bring samples to his home for him to see the actual product. Wouldn't that be better?
I drank my tea nervously, waiting for Xu Zhengnan's reply.
Time passed by and he still didn't answer, I was a little disappointed.
When it was time to get off work, everyone in the store left and I was the last one to leave. When I was about to turn off the lights, Xu Zhengnan suddenly appeared at the door.
My heart skipped a beat and my moods fluctuated.
"Is it closed?" he asked me casually.
"No, do you still want to see the tea sets? I'll take you there." I walked over and asked happily.
This is a lot of money standing in front of me and I am really happy.
When I got closer, I realized that Xu Zhengnan was holding a bouquet of flowers. He casually placed the flowers on the bar at the entrance. "I brought this for my mother. She's recently become obsessed with flower arrangement."
I nodded and didn't pay attention to the explanation. Aunt Yang, like my mother, likes to take care of the household and do some handicrafts, so it is normal for her to fall in love with flower arranging.
Now all I want is to take Xu Zhengnan to see the tea sets, and then convince him to order a batch from me, so that my wallet can be filled a lot more.
"I'll take you to see it." I took Xu Zhengnan into the store. The set of tea had different patterns and colors. There were only two sets left in the store, so I let him see it first.
Under the bright yellow light, the tea set sparkles with a warm luster. The smooth and exquisite patterns are flawless, translucent, pure and magnificent.
It is a pleasure to use it to make tea.
I enthusiastically introduced various information about tea sets to Xu Zhengnan. These were all homework I did on the spur of the moment, and sometimes I would be at a loss for words. He was not in a hurry, but waited patiently.
This scene made me feel a little dazed, as if I had returned to my student days, but with a different identity.
My grades were very good, and Xu Zhengnan's grades were ranked first in the school for two consecutive years. Whenever I had some difficult questions that I didn't understand, I would find him and pester him to explain them to me.
On countless nights like this, he would try his best to explain difficult problems to me, just as I explained the tea sets to him.
