Chapter 68 What is your charm?
"What's the madness, huh?"
Lin Xi smiled foolishly, "I just love to see you angry."
"Take you home."
"Do I need to go home in my dream?" Lin Xi asked naively.
"Speaking of which, why, I only saw my husband briefly, and then I saw you, and we talked for so long."
"Your husband? Me? I'm not your husband?" Chen Yan asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Of course you're not. You're just a, uh... ex-husband." Lin Xi couldn't stand still and threw herself into Chen Yan's arms, hugging him tightly.
My head was dizzy and my stomach was uncomfortable. I said vaguely: "Chen Yan, I loved you, more than anyone else. But now, I don't love you anymore."
Love has a time limit.
Love has life.
Love dies.
Love will also...rekindle.
It was already late at night when Lin Xi was sent home.
Xiuyun was still awake, supporting her daughter and saying, "Oh, why did you drink so much?"
Seeing Chen Yan's coldness, Xiuyun's first instinct was that Lin Xi and Shen Yan had had a quarrel.
"Look how nice Xiao Shen is, and you both have children."
Before Xiuyun could finish her words, Lin Xi's stomach churned.
However, what he vomited was just water, because he hadn't eaten anything and was only full of alcohol.
"Auntie Wang, Auntie Wang!" Xiuyun shouted.
Wang Ma, who was about to go to sleep, heard Madam's voice and hurried over. She hadn't even put on her clothes yet and was in a panic. "What's wrong, Madam?"
"Make some hangover soup for the young lady."
"Yes, ma'am."
Half an hour later, Lin Xi drank the sobering soup.
Then, I woke up from the dream.
She lay in bed and asked her mother, "I seem to have dreamed of Chen Yan."
"That wasn't a dream, it was real. And it was Xiao Shen who sent you back."
"Oh." He said disappointedly.
"Mom, I'm sleepy. It's getting late, you should go and get some rest too."
"good."
The next morning.
Lin Xi woke up with a splitting headache. She was wearing a casual cotton miniskirt, and her good figure was clearly visible.
Every step she took down the stairs was swaying, her eyes dull.
Mom Xiuyun is eating breakfast, and Gu Zhaoyun is crawling on the sofa, being looked after by Mom Wang.
Lin Xi saw her son and instantly became more energetic, "Oh, my little treasure."
She went up and picked up Gu Zhaoyun, swinging her in her arms. "Our little Zhaoyun, why are you so happy today? Mom just realized that grandma's name is Xiuyun and you are Zhaoyun. Your grandma is really careless."
Xiuyun was unhappy when she heard this, "It's not good to be on the same cloud with me?"
"What's wrong with her? Mom is really nice. It seems that our little Zhaoyun has a deep connection with grandma."
Lin Xi and Xiao Zhaoyun were face to face.
The baby's face is as delicate as a marshmallow and as soft as a cotton candy.
Little Zhaoyun loves to laugh. When he saw his mother, he started giggling again.
"Wow, you love to laugh so much." Lin Xi's mood suddenly improved when she saw her son laugh.
My energy and spirit are boosted.
"Alright, alright, come over and have dinner. I'll take care of little Zhaoyun."
Xiuyun had just finished her meal.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you."
"Mom...Mom..." Xiao Zhaoyun called out Lin Xi's name reluctantly.
He was early in speaking and walking.
The elderly often say that children who talk and walk early will also become sensible early.
And indeed, Gu Zhaoyun is the most filial and gentle among Lin Xi's children.
It just so happened that this eldest son most resembled his father, Shen Yan, yet his surname was Gu instead of Shen. For decades afterwards, Shen Yan also struggled with why his surname wasn't Shen. Later, he developed a love-hate relationship with Gu Zhaoyun.
Fortunately, he had some conscience, and it was Gu Zhaoyun who helped him keep his wife, Lin Xi.
The first child is always a little different, at least that's how Chen Yan feels about his eldest son, but Gu Zhaoyun never disappoints Chen Yan's expectations.
…
…
Breakfast consists of milk, bread, ham, egg tarts and braised beef slices.
While Lin Xi was drinking milk, she saw her mother playing with Xiao Zhaoyun. Xiao Zhaoyun was having a lot of fun. She ate slowly and unconsciously forced a happy smile.
Then, I went upstairs to put on makeup and change into my work clothes.
Before leaving home, I told my mother to call me immediately if anything happened. This was the same thing I did almost every day, because after all, there was no one else at home except her.
On the way to work, Lin Xi and Xuedan talked on the phone about what happened in Dali.
After hearing this, Xuedan was dumbfounded. "Oh my god, this is too thrilling. It feels like you have escaped death."
"I was really scared when the dagger hit my neck, but luckily I escaped harm."
Lin Xi had been kidnapped abroad before, but it was all Chu Jingchuan's fault.
Chu Jingchuan, these three words, Lin Xi would never mention them in front of Xuedan.
After all, I'm afraid that she will rekindle her old feelings.
"Now that you say that, I won't dare travel alone anymore."
"Go with your husband and bring a few bodyguards."
"That's too troublesome..."
"Tsk~" Lin Xi laughed.
Just say, "Okay, I don't want to chat with you anymore. I'm at the company."
She turned a corner and parked her car in the parking lot.
"Okay, busy man, go ahead."
Xuedan still has to stay at home to breastfeed her baby, after all, she is pregnant again.
After much thought, I finally said, "A second child can come at any time, but going out to work is simply a distant prospect."
Lin Xi was about to hang up the phone when Xuedan finished speaking. She was surprised, "You're pregnant again. Oh my God, you're so fast."
"Forget it, I'm already fed up with it."
"Okay, okay."
Lin Xi wore six-centimeter high heels, a black skirt, a red top, and carried a Chanel bag.
Wavy curls and shiny lip gloss.
He lowered his head to play with his phone and walked into the Lin Building.
If we talk about the beautiful scenery of the Lin family, Lin Xi is definitely one of them.
She is so beautiful that just looking at her appearance, she is on par with other female stars.
She is also very good at dressing. The items she wears are simply not available on the market, even if you have money. Because they are the latest products, she is the first person to get them.
Along the way, female and male employees cast their eyes over.
"Mr. Lin, good morning." Some management and old employees who had worked on projects with Lin Xi dared to greet Lin Xi.
As a junior employee, I didn’t dare to talk to Mr. Lin proactively.
There will also be new people discussing Lin Xi behind her back, "Our president's style has become more and more like a queen since her divorce."
"Maybe it's because I gave birth..."
Those who understood understood, so they covered their mouths and laughed.
"But our CEO, married into a wealthy family for the second time, lost the father but kept the son. She has a good man and a son, and she's worth hundreds of billions. She's only 26 years old, the age of a graduate student. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, can I experience this kind of life?"
"I bet that President Lin will marry into a wealthy family for the third time..."
"Let's bet on a bag..."
"Ahem."
When the girls heard the familiar voice, they suddenly shut up.
When I turned around, it turned out to be Sister Linda. I was finished.
Linda said expressionlessly, "The tea room is not a place for you to be lazy, nor is it a place for you to gossip. If you don't want to work, just leave."
Several interns felt aggrieved and dared not speak.
After Linda took the glass of water, she said nothing more and left.
But the more I think about it, the angrier I get, talking about the boss...
However, she was also very curious whether Ms. Lin would marry into a wealthy family for the third time.
But she didn't have the courage to say it out loud.
*****
Lin Xi, who was sitting in the office working on the computer, suddenly felt an itchy nose, and the next second, he sneezed.
I thought I had a cold, so I quickly drank some green tea.
In the evening, Lin Xi drove back home after get off work.
A person lay on the bed and began to touch the necklace and the diamond ring.
I started to miss Gu Qingheng again.
I really regret not asking Grandma for a few bottles of love wine. So what if it can alleviate my longing for love and shorten my life? I don't know how old I will live to be called an old man. I might as well go see Gu Qingheng sooner rather than later.
My eyes are filled with longing and a tear falls.
"I'm sorry, Gu Qingheng, I'm so sorry."
The next morning, Lin Xi did not go to the company in the morning and called Shen Youzhen.
Shen Youzhen came to the appointment with a big belly, and Lin Xi stared at the belly.
I feel a little jealous.
Why could this woman be pregnant with Gu Qingheng's child? But then he thought, forget it.
It is also good to have Gu Qingheng's blood flowing through my veins.
"Boy or girl? Have you checked?"
"I checked, it's a girl." Shen Youzhen said.
Shen Youzhen loves Gu Qingheng not just for money. If she doesn't love him, she won't be able to marry anyone else when Gu Qingheng is gone, and Lin Xi is still Mrs. Gu in name only.
"The child you give birth to will be raised by me and placed under my name. Madam Gu has told you all this, right?"
"Um."
"Is it really Qingheng's child?" Lin Xi asked with a smile.
"Yes. He loves me, not you." Shen Youzhen was wrong. He loved Lin Xi, not Shen Youzhen.
"Why bother telling me in person? How could I not know whether he loves me or not?"
It's just sour, Shen Youzhen has what she doesn't have.
"Lin Xi, you are really wavering and fickle. Tell me, who do you love more, Chen Yan or Gu Qingheng? Or, which one have you ever loved?"
Lin Xi smiled and did not answer the question.
"Don't you dare to answer? Or don't you know how to answer? Or are you embarrassed about how to answer?"
"Gu Qingheng." Lin Xi gave the answer with three words.
Shen Youzhen laughed out loud.
Chen Yan was right behind Lin Xi, so he must have heard it all.
This was a trap that Shen Youzhen dug for Lin Xi, just to ask in front of Shen Yan.
Lin Xi turned around suddenly, and the moment she saw Chen Yan, her pupils trembled.
The fingers were twisted into a knot.
Trying to remain calm, he looked at Shen Youzhen, “You’re playing tricks on me.”
"So what if I'm playing tricks on you? You're really annoying. You've got two of the best men at once. You can't have your cake and eat it too. Haven't you heard of that?"
Shen Youzhen admitted that he was jealous of Lin Xi. He thought Lin Xi was a green tea girl with a tea-like smell.
Marrying Chen Yan wasn't enough, she also wanted to marry Gu Qingheng, a second marriage, what right did she have?!
But what Shen Youzhen didn't understand was that Lin Xi was also jealous of her.
Jealous that she could continue Gu Qingheng's bloodline.
Lin Xi truly loves Gu Qingheng, while others love her for her looks, power, and status. These are not what impress Lin Xi.
Others also couldn't understand her love for Gu Qingheng. She felt so sorry and guilty about that regret.
Love is always indebted, and because I owe you and feel sorry for you, I love you even more.
…
…
Lin Xi didn't explain anything to Shen Yan and passed by Shen Yan.
And the next time I met Shen Yan was at a banquet.
Guozi was standing next to him, with her arm around his. The two of them looked quite a good match.
Lin Xi drank alone.
Too lazy to watch them.
I was complaining, isn't this supposed to be a networking dinner? Why isn't there any industry information exchange?
However, the sponsor of this evening party is an internationally renowned fashion brand.
There were also some A-list celebrities present.
Linda agreed to it on her behalf. Next time, I must tell Linda not to attend any party where there is drinking and entertainment.
…
After drinking five, six, seven or eight glasses, Lin Xi was ready to pour more wine.
I just plan to taste all the wines and then leave.
Suddenly, a shadow fell.
Lin Xi looked up and saw a man in a suit and tie, looking elegant and noble, smiling and greeting her. "Have we met before?"
Lin Xi didn't react to this sentence at once.
"You must have the wrong person."
"Impossible, my eyes are very sharp. Besides, you smell so good..."
Lin Xi's breathing paused as she met the man's eyes.
The other person's eyes were deep, and his pupils were dark and cruel.
He is obviously a handsome and gentle-looking person, so how could he have such vicious eyes?
It turns out that dangerous people have some part of their appearance that sends out danger signals.
The hand holding the goblet was suddenly sweaty, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "Why did you chase me here?"
The other party laughed.
"My name is Chu Jingxuan, and your name is Lin Xi, right?"
"Is your surname Chu?" Lin Xi knew someone with the surname Chu, but he was kidnapped.
So he took a serious look at Chu Jingxuan. It turned out that his temperament was somewhat similar to Chu Jingchuan's.
Chu Jingxuan is an elegant and noble young man, and it is totally unexpected that he can hold such a shiny dagger.
Don't judge a book by its cover, and don't judge the depth of the ocean by its depth. Suitable for men with the surname Chu.
"Do you know Chu Jingchuan?" Lin Xi asked casually.
"What's wrong?" Chu Jingxuan raised his eyebrows.
"Just asking. You two only differ by one letter, so it's hard not to associate you with each other."
"Thinking about it, could it be that Chu Jingchuan also got you hunted, huh?"
When Chu Jingxuan said this, he deliberately moved closer to Lin Xi.
Lin Xi felt a chill down his spine.
Well……
Chu Jingxuan's brain is really quick.
"Then it seems that you two know each other."
"To be honest, he's my uncle. But we're about the same age."
Lin Xi: “…”
After saying that, he clinked glasses with Lin Xi and then drank the red wine in the glass.
Lin Xi smiled wryly, "Oh, that's really a coincidence."
"Do you think I should stay away from you? There's a gentleman who keeps staring at me. He's scary and I'm so scared." Chu Jingxuan said this with an ambiguous look as he glanced at Chen Yan who was not far away, his expression provocative.
"He's your husband? But according to my investigation, isn't that your ex-husband? Why are you not allowing other men to get close to you even after the divorce?"
Lin Xi: “…”
Chu Jingxuan knew Shen Yan.
I've heard of Shen Yan.
So what if he is a member of the royal family? He is on par with the richest man in northern Beijing.
He became more and more interested in Lin Xi. "What's your charm? You're keeping him and me hanging?"
Lin Xi: ………
