Chapter 55 Xuxu, long time no see
"It's the weekend, you guys have worked overtime here, let's have dinner together later before going back, it's my treat."
After the meeting, it was already afternoon, and Han Jingyi took the initiative to take his employees out for lunch.
Lin Xu quickly said, "I have something to do later, so I won't be going."
Han Jingyi narrowed his eyes: "What do you want?"
"Private matter."
Lin Xu couldn't say in front of so many people that he was going to pick up Zhou Yan, lest something bad come out and trouble Zhou Yan.
But Han Jingyi refused to give in. He finally had a legitimate opportunity to ask Lin Xu out for dinner, but he refused to go?
"This is a group event, a company dinner. You've only been here a month, so you should be interacting with everyone. If it's nothing serious, just go."
Lin Xu didn't care about these things. Work was work, and the time when work was finished was his own.
Moreover, picking up Zhou Yan was a big deal.
"I'm really sorry about today. I'll treat everyone to a meal after I get my salary." Lin Xu clasped his hands together to express his apology, then packed up his things and ran away.
"Then—or let's forget about it today. I think the weather isn't very good and it might rain tonight. We can get together again next time when Lin Xu has time. Thank you, Mr. Han, in advance."
Teng Qiu could see that Han Jingyi had other intentions. The protagonist had already run away, so there was no point in them trying to get together.
Han Jingyi was a little annoyed and nodded stiffly: "Okay then, be careful on the road, thank you for your hard work."
Lin Xu happily arrived at the underground parking lot and walked towards Zhou Yan's parking space.
At this time of the weekend, there were quite a few people working overtime in the building, so Lin Xu didn't even look up when he passed by a man.
His heart had already flown to the airport.
The man watched Lin Xu walk past him, and only called out to him after Lin Xu had passed by without even looking at him.
"Lin Xu."
Lin Xu stopped in his tracks instantly, his hair standing on end.
He was so familiar with this voice.
Who else could it be if not that bastard Shen Xinji?
Lin Xu turned stiffly, and their eyes met. It was really Shen Xinji.
"Why are you here?" Lin Xu asked with a frown.
Shen Xinji walked slowly in front of Lin Xu with his long legs: "Xuxu, long time no see."
Lin Xu felt a chill: "Don't scream so disgustingly, we are not that familiar."
Chen Xinji smiled with an ambiguous smile: "Didn't I always call you that before? We're not familiar with each other? Who else could be more familiar with you? That man in your circle of friends?"
Lin Xu realized he was talking about Zhou Yan, took a step back and asked, "How did you see that?"
After the two broke up, Lin Xu deleted all contact information of Shen Xinji.
"We have so many mutual friends. Do you think I wouldn't know everything you do?" Shen Xinji pressed on.
"Do you have any shame? Why are you paying attention to my every move? If you have a disease, go get treatment instead of acting crazy in front of me." Lin Xu didn't have time to talk nonsense with him. If he didn't leave now, he would not be able to reach the airport before Zhou Yan's plane landed.
Shen Xinji blocked Lin Xu's way: "Xu Xu, is he your new boyfriend?"
"What does this have to do with you?!" Lin Xu clenched his fists. "Chen Xinji, we have nothing to do with each other now. You're already married. What's the point of asking me this?"
Shen Xinji didn't hear Lin Xu's rebuttal. He was anxious and raised his hand to grab Lin Xu's arm: "Xu Xu, you know, I got married because my family arranged it. The person I like is you. I think about you every day——"
Lin Xu punched him in the face before he could finish.
Shen Xinji didn't expect Lin Xu to be willing to fight him, and was caught off guard and stunned.
"Get out of here!" Lin Xu pushed him away and went to open the car door.
Shen Xinji rushed over and held his hand, trapping Lin Xu in front of the car door.
"I'm sorry for you. I accepted the beating you gave me. Xuxu, let's have a good talk, okay?"
Shen Xinji felt Lin Xu's determination and became even more anxious.
It turned out that Lin Xu was so obedient to him that he thought that even if he got married, Lin Xu would not be able to let him go.
Wait until his family is settled and then come to see Lin Xu. After coaxing her, Lin Xu will be willing to reconcile with him.
He didn't expect that Lin Xu would fall in love with someone else so soon.
Seeing that he was about to hug her, Lin Xu raised her leg and hit Shen Xinji's chest with her knee, causing Shen Xinji to bend over and take a few steps back in pain.
Lin Xu clenched his fists and warned sternly, "If you dare to call me that disgusting again, I'll continue to beat you up. If you dare to hit me, don't blame me for being rude!"
"That punch just now wasn't because you broke up with me. I've already stopped thinking about you breaking up with me, and I'm thankful that God has mercy on me and made you, a scumbag, stay away from me."
"This punch is because you secretly manipulated me and made me unable to find a job after graduation. You took advantage of the situation and made me feel useless and had no choice but to follow you. Shen Xinji, I knew you were a bastard, but I didn't expect you to be such a bastard!"
"Xu - Lin Xu, please listen to my explanation. You are too outstanding. I am worried that you will abandon me when you get a job and meet someone better. I did this because I love you and I am afraid of losing you." Shen Xinji covered his chest and explained with great pain.
"Bah! Your wife has a job too, why don't you ruin hers? You wouldn't dare! I'm the only one with no background or support, so you can do whatever you want to me. I haven't even come to you to settle this, but you're here to find me!"
Lin Xu became angrier as he spoke, and punched him a few more times, and kicked him a few times as well.
How could Shen Xinji just stand there and let him hit him? He dodged his punch and pushed him towards the car behind him.
After all, he was stronger than Lin Xu, so he handcuffed Lin Xu's hands behind his back and held them in his arms.
"I know you hate me, and I deserve it! But I don't believe you have no attachment to me at all. If you are angry, I can let you vent your anger, but you can't do this to me!"
Lin Xu had never heard such shameless words. If his hands couldn't move, he would kick with his feet.
"Let me go! This is the company. You ruined me once, are you going to ruin me a second time?!"
Shen Xinji only thought about himself and didn't care whether Lin Xu would be seen by his colleagues or what impact it would have on Lin Xu. He leaned over and tried to kiss Lin Xu forcefully.
"What are you doing!?"
The elevator door opened, and Han Jingyi and Teng Qiu and several colleagues got off the elevator and saw this scene.
Seeing Lin Xu being bullied, Teng Qiu shouted.
Han Jingyi knew Shen Xinji. Seeing Lin Xu being bullied by him, he became furious. He rushed over, grabbed Shen Xinji's collar and threw him out.
"What are you doing here?!"
Shen Xinji almost fell down, his anger had made him lose his mind.
He stood up and sneered at Han Jingyi: "Don't you like him too? Why did you let him be with someone else? How dare you say that to me?"
Han Jingyi took two steps forward and grabbed Shen Xinji's collar: "This is the company, you are shameless but he still wants it, now follow me immediately, if you say another word I will go find your wife right away! Lin Xu cares about each other's face, I don't care so much!"
