Cold War Between Men
A secret fight between men
Because of a call, Mu Lanxuan seemed to have finally come back to his senses. "Well, okay, I'll come soon." After hanging up the phone, when Qingyi looked at him again, the haze on his face seemed to be swept away.
"Qingyi, I still have something to do. When will you go back, let's go together. Brother Mu will not make things difficult for you. Falling in love with you is my own business, and I will not add any mental burden to you." He regained his warm face and showed a faint smile.
"Well, thank you Brother Mu, I'll go back in a few days." Qingyi nodded and stood up. Mu Lanxuan put a light kiss on her lips and quickly moved away. "Is it considered taking advantage of you?" He asked jokingly in her ear.
Although she couldn't accept his change for a moment, Qingyi shook her head as she looked at his regained smile. In fact, Mu Lanxuan's problem was caused by herself, and she couldn't blame him.
"It's okay, it just means politeness. I have lived in the United States for several years."
"Haha. I was a little rude just now. I hope you don't mind. You can only explain to my aunt." His clear laughter echoed in this small cafe.
Qingyi couldn't understand why he had such a change, and even more so why he wanted to kiss her. She just shook her head secretly and walked out of the cafe.
The autumn weather was filled with a hint of coolness. Looking at the flowing clouds in the sky, she felt inexplicably frustrated. It might be Mu Lanxuan's changes, or it might be him telling himself about Zheng Xiaolang's marriage.
Does she really care? She can deceive Mu Lanxuan, she can deceive her mother or anyone, but she can't deceive her own heart. When he said just now, her heart was cramped, and the pain ate her heart and her soul like fire. Only she herself understood that her heart always cared about him so much. She could give up everything for him and wait for him, but he would not love her, and would never understand that her efforts were just to win his sincerity and complete love.
When I returned to the hospital, I was surprised to see Xi Yan chatting and laughing with her mother. Seeing her walking in in a daze, Xi Yan was obviously stunned for a moment and soon returned to peace.
"Qingyi, I heard from Aunt Wen that you and Lan Xuan were out, why are you back so soon?" Xi Yan's face felt indescribable and complicated emotion.
"Just finished the talk, he left in advance. You have also returned to the United States, where is Yuanyuan?" She pointed at him, said hello, and went to soak in water for him.
"Don't be busy, I'm leaving after a while. Yuanyuan is undergoing an examination, and we will go back later. Qingyi, our marriage is scheduled to be the end of the year. You know Yuanyuan..." Xi Yan raised his eyes a little uneasy and looked at her, as if he wanted to see something from her eyes. But he didn't see anything, and sighed in his heart in disappointment. He understood that Qingyi had never loved him before. At that time, he proposed to get engaged at the end of the year, but she did not object, but in fact he did not really accept him. Although because Yuanyuan deliberately got drunk and had a night of love with him, he reluctantly agreed to the marriage with her. In fact, he also understood that Qingyi's heart would never be able to get it even if he spent decades. So he planned to give up.
But now he has seen through it, but Mu Lanxuan, as his future brother-in-law, what should he do? How much can he do for him?
"Xi Yan, congratulations. Yuanyuan is a good girl and is very suitable for you. In fact, I am not as good as you think. I have always treated you as my benefactor. Maybe you can only find a better one if you know how to give up." Qingyi's face was sincere blessings. She sincerely wished Xi Yan could find someone who loves him and a lover who knows and stays with each other.
"Qingyi, we have to prepare gifts for them as soon as possible. Yuanyuan is pregnant and gets married at the end of the year. She probably has a big belly." Wen Qi has already sat up, looked at the two of them silently, and reminded with a smile.
"Yes, Xi Yan, what gift do you want?" She handed the poured warm water into his palm, and began to think about the gifts to them.
"Actually, we don't need any gifts, but since you said you want to give them, I'm not polite. Yuanyuan has always liked your comics very much. She hopes that you can help us draw a set of love comics, which are comics based on our appearance. Because taking wedding photos requires a story structure." Qingyi couldn't help but smile when she heard what he said. It turned out that Xi Yan is also a romantic man, but she really didn't notice it.
"Okay, I agree, I'll give it to you next month, it's time."
"Qingyi, your phone rings." He reminded.
When I opened the phone, it was strange that this number was another strange number. I didn't want to answer it at first, but when I thought about it, I still answered it. "Silly girl, silly girl, when will you come back?" As soon as I answered the phone, Long Tengxiao's bombardment came.
"Xiao, what's wrong? You've eaten chili. You're so angry?" Qingyi's mood improved a lot when she heard his voice and even joked with him.
"Silly girl, I tell you, if you don't come back, that pervert Zheng Xiaolang is really never yours, and I don't know what you think?"
Long Tengxiao's words made her at a loss for a moment, and her heart sank a little bit again. Her good mood just now was destroyed again. "What he wanted to do is his business, I don't care." She had already walked into the corridor of the ward, leaning against the cold wall, and tears still couldn't help but flow down.
"If you don't care, why are you crying?" Long Tengxiao said on the phone as if he had a perspective eye.
"I didn't cry. Which eye did you see me crying?" she said stubbornly.
"Is that right? I didn't cry. I couldn't see both eyes, but both ears heard your cry. Why are you still so stupid? Come back early. I've said that so much, don't regret it if I don't come back." He hung up the phone and felt uncomfortable. This stupid girl, I hope she can understand his kindness reminder.
After wiping her tears, she was about to go back to the ward, but she saw that Xi Yan had already walked out. Seeing her red eyes, she was stunned for a moment, and she felt a little uncomfortable. "Qingyi, Yuanyuan called and said that she had checked, I'll leave first. Aunt Wen is fine, you go back early." He reached out and hugged her, and put a let go kiss on her cheek.
Qingyi saw Xi Yan's thin and not straight back gradually disappearing in front of her. She then sighed in her heart that it turned out that his back was so strong and straight, and his chest was so warm and wide, which was a place where women and children could warm themselves.
In the afternoon, when Cheng Mingxi came, she told her that the plane ticket had been booked, just tomorrow afternoon. Although she didn't know why Cheng Mingxi was so anxious to go back, she didn't ask much, because Long Tengxiao was also urging her to go back early.
Saying goodbye to mother and Cheng Wen, she followed Cheng Mingxi on the plane. "Miss, I want a blanket."
Qingyi turned sideways, Mu Lanxuan was sitting in their row of seats. He was smiling and asking the flight attendant for a blanket. Qingyi looked over, but he turned his head. Qingyi saw Mingxi and the child playing, so she didn't say hello to him.
In fact, Mu Lanxuan had seen Qingyi a long time ago. He had asked someone to change this seat so that he could see her. Seeing that she had just seen her, she suddenly turned her head, and he felt a little disappointed. Just a flash of disappointment passed by, and a faint gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth in an instant.
After getting off the plane, no one from the Zheng family came to pick him up. However, Long Tengxiao was waiting at the exit early.
"Silly girl, stupid girl finally knows she's back." As soon as she saw Qingyi coming out, Long Tengxiao didn't pay attention to others. She pulled her over first and then blew her up.
"Qingyi, who is this person? Wouldn't you introduce him?" Cheng Mingxi didn't like the man in front of him, and when he heard him calling Qingyi a stupid girl, he felt angry. Perhaps the word "maid" stimulated him, and he saw him holding the child and inserted it quietly among them.
"He is Long Tengxiao, the general manager of Wang's family." Although Qingyi didn't understand why the Long family was so rich, she still introduced them to them like this.
"Good luck, glad luck." Long Tengxiao looked at the tall and sharp man in front of him, politely speaking. Cheng Mingxi and Zheng Xiaolang's names can almost be paralleled. How could he have never heard of his name? It's just that he still didn't expect Cheng Mingxi to be so young.
Long Tengxiao was driving the car and humming the song gently. Qingyi didn't know what he was humming, nor didn't care. However, the more Cheng Mingxi listened, the worse his face became. Only he understood what song he was singing. He was humming a country song from England, a song by a man proposing to his beloved woman. Somehow, he felt angry in his heart, but thanks to his usual good cultivation, he did not have anger on the spot, but just glanced at him coldly.
Long Tengxiao, a descendant of the Long family, has industries all over the world, how could he become a small general manager in Wang? He doesn't think he would be willing to be a general manager.
Along the way, except for Long Tengxiao who was humming the song, he glared at Cheng Mingxi. Although the two did not fight with a real sword, the atmosphere in the car was very unsmooth. The two children were probably too tired, lying on Qingyi's legs and fell asleep.
The airport was not far from Chunning Villa and arrived soon. After getting off the car, Cheng Mingxi picked up the baby. Long Tengxiao was not willing to be outdone and picked up Beibei. Cheng Mingxi glared at Long Tengxiao angrily, and Long Tengxiao smiled obscenely.
