Old Injury
Chapter 35
, easily bullied. 】
I lied to Song Mo.
Maybe it's not "cheating", I prefer to call it "white lie".
How I will be with Song Bailao in the future, to be honest, I didn't know what to do before. It depends on many factors, most of which have nothing to do with my wishes. For example, if the alliance between the Zhu family and Xia Sheng breaks down one day, I will probably be handed a divorce agreement soon. And now...
I have been looking for the right time to have a good talk with Song Bailao about the child. Although he has never trusted me, and has repeatedly expressed that he doesn't want me and his children, I always have a little... delusion in my heart, thinking that even if he can't accept me, he won't hate his children.
It turns out I took it for granted again.
His words were like a blow to the head and completely woke me up. Since he hates me, he naturally hates Wu Jiwu, and hates me for "designing" the children he gave birth to.
Xia Qiao had a miscarriage, and everyone was relieved, because no one expected the birth of a conspiracy. In this case, how could Song Bailao be happy that he suddenly had a seven-year-old child? His existence will always remind Song Bailuo of everything that happened in that year.
He won't love him, let alone be a good father.
In this case, there is no need for him to know the existence of Youyou. When Ning Shi returns the child to me, I will submit a divorce application, and then go to another place, without the hustle and bustle, to reopen a family of "Xu Meiren" to spend the rest of my life.
This is the best ending I can think of for this marriage.
But I forgot that I have always been unlucky, and things I think well are generally not achieved.
When the media started to report on the news of Zhu Li and Ruan Linghe, the young master of the Ruan family, I sat on the sofa and stared blankly at the screen, like many viewers in front of the TV, for this reason Feeling caught off guard.
The Omega that the young master of the Ruan family inexplicably marked... turned out to be Zhu Li?
I stood up holding the remote control, asked Sister-in-law Jiu to prepare the car, and said that I was going back to Zhu's house.
Sitting in the car and looking at the scenery along the road, I felt uneasy and thought a lot.
Ning Shi said that Zhu Li was forced to be flagged when she went to the bar to party, but what if it was all a trap he set from the beginning? Just like the design of me and Song Bailao back then, but this time the object was replaced by another unlucky person.
I kept calling Ning Shi, but she never answered, and I don't know if it was intentional or the phone was not around.
When I arrived at Zhu's house, I wanted to ask her to clarify, but she and Zhu Yunsheng were not there. But the servant stopped me and said that Zhu Li wanted to see me.
I had nothing to say to him at first, but now this complicated situation, besides Ning Shi, maybe only he can answer for me.
Following the servants, I stepped into the courtyard with green grass and flowers.
Zhu Li was sitting in the middle, surrounded by sunshine and fragrance. There was an exquisite three-tier dessert stand and a white porcelain tea cup on the table. He rolled the book with one hand and read it with interest while eating a cookie. Anyone who sees him will feel that he is clean and transparent, the ideal type of omega. Only those who have suffered from his losses will know how terrible he is.
"Young master, someone brought it."
Zhu Li raised her head from the book and tapped a wrought iron chair opposite her chin: "Sit."
The servant poured tea for me, and then consciously retreated into the distance.
Zhu Li seemed to have completely forgotten about me, and it seemed that the content of the book was really eye-catching. For a few minutes, he didn't speak to me at all, and turned the pages by himself.
The long silence made me a little uneasy. I didn't hold back and asked him, "What's going on with the Ruan family?"
Zhu Li slowly sucked the fingertips with the cookie crumbs, then threw the book aside, put her elbows on the table, facing me.
"Why do you think I'm willing to marry Song Bailao?" He didn't wait for me to answer, and continued, "My father, who is fascinated by power and sex, can sacrifice his own son for this. One person. When he decided to marry Xia Sheng, I knew he would give in. Sure enough, Song Bailao said that the marriage was okay, but I couldn't have children of my own, and his heir could only be Song Mo."
He looked disdainful: "At that time, I thought, do I only have his choice? No, there is also a Ruan family."
I followed his words to figure out some clues, and dared not believe the truth: "You deliberately asked Ruan Linghe to tag you? He has a girlfriend."
Zhu Li shrugged and admitted generously: "So what? Who told him to go to the last bachelor party and gave me a chance?"
"But why didn't you explain the situation to your father immediately after you were marked? If he knew that you were marked by the young master of the Ruan family, he would be too happy." Ning Shi would not ask me, Want me to marry Song Bailao.
Zhu Li picked up the teacup and smiled, took a sip of tea, and put the cup down gently.
"How would I know who tagged me?"
I was stunned for a moment. Seeing his half-smile expression, I quickly understood.
Not giving any words at all, the victim's posture is vivid. Ruan Linghe's relationship with Wu Qian before was not welcomed by the Ruan family. Now that they have changed Zhu Li, they may be happy to see it happen.
What a deep scheming, a good second move.
"No wonder my mother suddenly changed her attitude and asked me to steal Xia Sheng's documents. It turns out that you guys had already planned to invest in the Ruan family..."
"Ning Shi asked you to steal the documents?" Zhu Li raised her eyebrows and pretended, "She really doesn't take your safety seriously. If Song Bailao finds out that you betrayed him again, I'm afraid it will be ugly."
I curled my fingers, although I was mentally prepared, I was still stung by his words.
For Ning Shi, I may just be a useful prop. She is not completely indifferent to me, but in front of me and Ronghua, of course, she will choose the latter without hesitation. The bond between mother and son is probably more fragile than spider silk.
"After Alpha and omega mark each other, the pheromone will make you two unconsciously attracted to each other and have a good impression. Even if Song Bailao insists that he doesn't want your child, but driven by the pheromone, it is impossible for him to not want to Have a baby with you. You don't have to go through all that trouble."
This is not an assumption, but a necessity. Just like Xia Qiao and Luo Qinghe, no matter how unwilling they are, they are still attracted to each other. This is the scary part of pheromones, and the sad part of ao.
Zhu Li looked at me for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Do you know who Song Mo is the child of Song Bailao and whom?" He looked at me blankly and smiled, "You don't know."
I don't know, but what's the point?
Zhu Li supported her chin and said softly, "Xia Yanchi, Song Mo, Yanchi Shengmo. Have you never doubted their relationship?"
I froze for a moment, then stood up suddenly and brought the seat under my butt.
"Why should the Xia family let the stepson inherit the family business? Because the real heir is Song Mo. This is an open secret in the circle. In order to obtain the Xia family's property, Song Bolao and his stepbrother I have a child." Zhu Li raised her eyes and looked up at me, "If my child can't inherit Xia Sheng, why should I have a child with him?"
Song Mo is actually... the child of Xia Yanchi and Song Bailao?
A strange discomfort grew from the bottom of my heart, I looked at Zhu Li, his eyes were dark and deep, as if hiding an endless abyss. I kept backing away, feeling panic in my heart. I didn't even remember how I left the Zhu family. When I recovered, I was already in the car.
Ning Shi's phone still can't get through, I sent her a message and asked her to call me back as soon as possible.
Back to Weijing Mountain, as soon as I entered the door, I noticed that the atmosphere was wrong. Everyone was cautious, lowered their eyebrows and lowered their presence as quietly as possible. It seemed that a ferocious beast was nearby, and as long as it made a little noise, it would be dragged away and torn to pieces.
Sister-in-law nine stepped forward and lowered her voice: "Sir is back, and he doesn't seem to be in a good mood."
I probably know why he's in a bad mood.
The door of the study was not closed tightly, I knocked on the door, and then pushed open a crack.
"I'm in."
Song Bailao didn't respond, I pushed in the door and saw him sitting behind the desk, playing with a button-like thing expressionlessly.
I walked to the desk nervously and took the initiative to say: "The matter of the Zhu family and the Ruan family..."
"Xia Sheng and Yanhua Century have been competitors for decades," Song Bailao didn't look at me, "A while ago, a developer who was fired by me went to the Ruan family, A project that Xia Sheng has not made progress in a few years has made progress in Yanhua Century in a few weeks. However, this kind of thing happens from time to time, and it is common in the industry. I don't care. I think this is all the means of the Ruan family. , I didn't expect that I found this today..."
He finally put his eyes on my face, put the metal "button" between his fingers, and asked me: "Do you know what this is?"
I looked closely and didn't recognize: "...don't know."
"This is a bug." Song Bailao slammed the thing on the table, but his tone was the opposite of calm, "I found it under this table."
My muscles tightened when he slapped me vigorously, and I couldn't help being frightened. Looking at his expression again, that familiar suspicion and unbelief resurfaced, making my blood coagulate.
But soon, the still blood rushed to my brain and my cheeks became hot.
"You think I'm pretending?" I couldn't help raising my voice.
Song Bailao looked even colder: "Isn't it?"
He doesn't trust me at all.
I opened my mouth and suddenly thought of a person: "I bumped into a servant in the corridor two days ago, and then found the study door open. My sister-in-law fired her."
It turns out that the other party is not here to steal, but to install a bug.
Song Bailao pointed at the bug with his index finger and moved it in front of me: "Even if this bug was not installed by you, do you dare to say that you have no idea about the Zhu family's plans?"
"I..." I bit my lip, "I really don't know about Zhu Li and Ruan Linghe. Ning Shi did find me before and asked me to help her steal documents, But I didn't agree."
He looked at me and said lightly: "Oh? Why don't you agree?"
I suffocated, suddenly not knowing how to answer him.
Why didn't I say yes?
He would ask such a question, which shows that he has already made his own judgment on this matter in his heart - I have no reason not to agree.
Ning Shi is my mother, why don't I agree? I'm not close to him, why don't I agree? The Zhu family rides on the Ruan family’s back against the big tree to enjoy the shade. If I have the opportunity to please the Ruan family, why don’t I agree?
He has a hundred conjectures that I will definitely agree to, but he refuses to believe the only truth.
In his mind, what kind of person am I? A mercenary villain? A scheming careerist?
I had to hurriedly support the table top to maintain balance, when I looked up, what caught my eye was Song Bailao's terrifying eyes.
"You've played enough of me, and now you're divorced?" He grabbed my collar and leaned close, "Stop dreaming!"
I was about to laugh at him: "What do you want? Kill me?"
He looked around my face and said coldly: "Everything is a scam, it's your disguise, whether it's seven years ago or seven years later. You don't love me at all, you The only one who loves is you. It's ridiculous that I thought you'd changed." He let go of me with a look of disgust and hatred, "and you're still so… disgusting."
I never knew that the word "disgusting" could have such a lethal effect, even more than all the swear words I knew.
I stood up straight, caressed the folds on my chest, raised my head and smiled at him, the corners of my mouth trembling.
"You're right, seven years ago and now, nothing has changed."
I really don't love him.
