She doesn't understand!
This is obviously something we agreed on early in the morning!
"Is the banquet cancelled?"
She was still thinking about the best and asked this question.
"Don't go out and wait for me at home. I'll be there soon."[
He had already learned from Uncle Zun that she was going to have her hair done soon, so he hurriedly spoke to her before that, so as not to waste her time and work in vain.
Hearing this, Lin Meng could only shout to the driver to stop the car. In fact, she was already in the car, and the car was about to drive to the door.
"Isn't it convenient to tell you now? What is going on?"
"Let's talk about it when I get back. You wait for me at home."
She thought for a while and reluctantly agreed. After hanging up the phone, she asked the driver Xiao Lu to drive the car back.
Rong Ling on the other end felt helpless when she thought that she would face Lin Meng soon. Originally this was a scheduled matter, but unexpectedly, Li Lanqiu got in the way. She said that he needed to take her with him.
Attending the meeting together allowed those people to see how much he valued her. Because she strongly recommended him as her future husband, those people agreed to take the risk to help. On the day when he returned to the Rong family, it was up to him
If you bring her to attend, those people will no longer have any doubts and will definitely help you with all their strength.
He didn't know how much of Li Lanqiu's remarks were true and how much were false, but he knew that Li Lanqiu was very ambitious. When he couldn't have direct contact with those people, Li Lanqiu was the middleman. With her
With one mouth, she can communicate from both ends, and she can do many little tricks as long as she wants.
He couldn't refuse, so on what basis?! Li Lanqiu even gave Lin Meng a reason not to attend, that is, she was not feeling well!
Li Lanqiu was half crying and half threatening, saying that if he loved her, he should bring her to attend, otherwise, all his behavior would be to coax her; and he also said that if she could not appear with him in this way,
In public places, people over there won’t believe it.
He has come this far and almost got the key information right after the banquet. At this moment, he can't watch everything he did before and fall short! With Li Lanqiu's cunning and unruly
To the extent that it is absolutely possible that if he doesn't agree to her conditions, he won't tell her truthfully afterwards. Then he will have to coax her, flatter her, and gather information from scratch!
He thought, enough is enough!
Therefore, all he could think of was wronging Lin Meng.
Using her physical discomfort as an excuse can minimize the embarrassment of her not being able to attend.
When he returned home, he met Lin Meng who was anxiously approaching him.
"What's going on?! Could it be that something happened to the Rong family again?!"
Seeing her like this, he felt heartbroken and felt even more apologetic.
"Little boy."
He hugged her and finally pressed her on the sofa, caressing her little face with his palm.
"Little boy, it's none of the Rong family's business. It's me who has a problem this time."[
He knew that she was smart, so when her face suddenly turned pale, he knew that she should have guessed it. He told the truth directly without beating around the bush.
After hearing this, she asked, "It's still for Third Uncle, right?"
The calm tone was like the quiet sea surface. But he couldn't predict whether there would be rough waves below.
"Yes." He answered with difficulty.
"There is no room for maneuver?! Are you sure that I will be absent due to physical discomfort?!"
"Yes." He answered with more difficulty.
"Then do you know what this means to me?! Do you know how others will view me?"
He fell silent because he couldn't answer.
It was he who felt sorry for her!
During the long silent confrontation, she smiled silently, a very faint smile.
"Forget it, you are doing it for your great cause, I won't embarrass you. Just take Li Lanqiu with you!"
"My dear!" He felt extremely distressed and immediately hugged her tightly. "I'm sorry for making you feel wronged."
She just pushed him away, hugged her knees with both hands, and her little face was buried deeply in her knees. Her hanging black hair completely blocked her face.
She is injured.
he knows.
However, just like the "loyalty dilemma" since ancient times, it was difficult for him to have both sides between her and the third uncle. In order to let the third uncle come out intact, at this time, he could only wrong her.
"Xiao Guai, I'm sorry for making you sad. I will work hard to make this matter go away soon. Xiao Guai, forgive me, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
He lifted up half of her hair, pressed it against her ear, and murmured an apology.
But she never responded. Until finally, she raised her head and pushed him away again.
"You go and do your work. There is a banquet in the evening, and there are a lot of things to be busy with. You go, I am very good, I will take care of myself."
Seeing her like this made him feel more and more distressed.
"Little boy!"[
"Go!" She frowned. "I feel a little uncomfortable and want to lie down upstairs. You can go."
"I'll accompany you!"
"No need!" She pushed him and stood up.
He went to grab her, but she threw his hand away.
"Rong Ling, mother-in-law and mother-in-law are not your style. You go ahead and finish your great business quickly. I know what I do and I have my own sense of proportion. You insist on accompanying me, but you are just wasting our time."
She acted too rationally, and it was so different from what he imagined. He thought that she would be aggrieved, complain, be coquettish, angry, and not look good to him, but he never thought about it.
She would understand him so well and act so calmly.
It seemed like he didn't have much weight in her heart. So, he asked Li Lan to replace her, and she didn't think it was a big deal. She was so considerate and saved him a lot of trouble, but
The strange thing was that instead of feeling relaxed, he felt an indescribable sense of loss that suddenly surged into his heart.
Seeing her leaving him, walking upstairs, and finally disappearing at the entrance of the corridor, he could only retract his gaze and go out with a cold face. Tonight, no matter what, he was going to get the result.
Report it to your superior, and then tell her everything.
But not long after he left, Lin Meng went out. He thought she would be so good, but he was totally wrong. How could he let other women occupy his territory?!
She went to find Xiao Yi.
"Do me a favor and accompany me to the Rong family's dinner party tonight!"
Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows in surprise, then his eyes lit up with interest on his face.
"I'm very happy. But, Xiao Meng'er, Rong Ling's female companion tonight, shouldn't it be Li Lanqiu?"
This time Lin Meng raised an eyebrow.
"You know everything?!"
Xiao Yi immediately and honestly confessed the part where he ran to threaten Rong Ling, but was finally threatened by Rong Ling, and by the way expressed his innocence.
"I wanted to find a suitable time to mention something to you. But then you knew it, so there was no need for me to say it."
Lin Meng became a little worried when he heard what he said.
"Then if you take me there tonight, will it cause you any trouble?"
"It's nothing. Sooner or later, I will be known by Jiang Yancheng, or maybe the old fox has known about my existence for a long time, but he has been standing still. Xiao Meng'er is going to fight Li Lanqiu, so I will definitely help.
"
Moreover, imagining him and Lin Meng dressed up for the occasion fell into Rong Ling's eyes. He felt that the man's appearance would be very exciting when the time came, and he really couldn't wait to see it.
"Then do you have an invitation letter from the Rong family?"
According to what he said, she felt that the possibility of Rong Ling inviting Xiao Yi was really zero.
Xiao Yi winked at her slyly. "There is no place in this world that I can't go to. Participating in a mere banquet is too childish for me!"
When Lin Meng dreamed of Xiao Yi's abilities, she felt that this was not a problem. So, she laughed along with her.
Xiao Yi also laughed for a while and asked pretending to be casual.
"Xiao Meng'er, what exactly do you think, tell me."
Lin Meng shook his head.
Xiao Yi also shook his head.
"I know even if you don't tell me. According to your temper, if Rong Ling and Li Lanqiu really did something, then you must have kicked her!"
When this woman was still young enough, he hugged a woman and kissed her, and she was able to immediately shame him and adopt cold war tactics against him; now that she is so confident and capable, it is absolutely impossible to live longer and go back.
of.
"Rong Ling should have told you that he and Li Lanqiu were entangled for some reason. You are so devoted to this man, and you probably believed what he said. However, it is not yours to sit back and wait for death.
