“Are you surprised to see me?” Tangbin said with a smile at the corners of his mouth.
“It’s really surprising!” They broke up seven years ago. When he was in Wansheng company, he broke up with her in order to get the position. He chose Baiwei. But since Baiwei was dead, they two could be counted as old friends.
There was a moment of silence
A waiter came over and asked her what she wanted. She just needed a glass of water.
“It must be you who bumped into me that day!” After the waiter left, Yangshuting looked up at him and asked.
“It’s me.” He said honestly.
“Did you steal the phone?”
“It’s not stealing. I just want to know your number. I have to do that.” He smiled and said.
“It doesn’t seem to be your habit. Your skill is so fast. It’s no different from a pickpocket.” Yangshuting seemed to realize that she had said something wrong and hurriedly said, “sorry, I didn’t mean that!”
“It doesn’t matter!” Tangbin pretended to be indifferent, smiled and said.
The waiter brought her a glass of water and put it in front of her. She held the warm glass in her hands and didn’t know how to start the topic. The atmosphere was a little awkward.
Tangbin looked at her. She seemed to be different from what she was seven years ago, but she had become more beautiful with a sense of charm.
“How have you been these years?” At this time, Yangshuting suddenly asked him. She didn’t think about the past, but it was a fact that they knew each other. Since her old friend met again, she should greet him.
“Not bad!” He answered her lightly and then asked, “what about you?”
“I… just so so!” Yangshuting avoided his eyes, lowered her head, picked up the water and took a sip.
“Just so? Or very painful?”
She looked up at Tangbin in surprise and didn’t know what he meant.
Tangbin smiled and said, “I know everything about you. Not long ago, you competed with Lingweihao for the custody of the child in the court, but in the end, Lingweihao won.”
She thought that the two of them would love each other forever, but she didn’t expect that they would end up like this.
“Have you been inquiring about me all the time?” Yangshuting asked him in surprise. Shouldn’t he live his own life? What’s the point of knowing her things? Was he mocking her at her current decline?
Tangbin raised his dashing eyebrows. It was undeniable that he had been inquiring about her all the time, but sometimes he learned it through love.
On that day, in the court, he wore a black sportswear and a peaked cap. He sat in the auditorium, looking at Yangshuting in the innermost corner.
Her face was full of tiredness, heartbreak, sadness, despair, resentment… Her eyes were full of complex emotions, and she lowered her head
His heart ached at the sight of this.
It was he who betrayed her in the past. He felt sorry for her when he saw her reduced to this situation.
Yangshuting glared at him angrily, but said nothing. All her friends had known about it. She fought with Greg to the end with her persistence and stubbornness. She didn’t expect that she would fail in the end. She was the one who got hurt.
“Do you still remember that your daughter was missing?” Seeing her sad face, Tangbin lowered his eyes to hide her uneasiness and sadness. He didn’t continue the sensitive topic just now, because he was afraid that she would be hurt. He changed the topic and said.
Hearing what he said, Yangshuting raised her eyes and looked at him in surprise. Since that incident, her relationship with Greg had been broken up and reached an uncontrollable level. She frowned and asked, “what do you want to say?”
“In fact, I took your daughter away.” Tangbin told her the truth honestly. That day, he followed the three of them to the Disneyland and saw her and Lingweihao’s daughter as beautiful and lovely as a porcelain doll. Then he took her daughter away when Yangshuting and Stephen were not noticing.
Her daughter didn’t cry at all when she was “taken away” by him. Her big and watery eyes looked exactly like Yangshuting. Other parts of her body were calm and composed, but they were exactly the same as Lingweihao.
Yangshuting looked at him in surprise. She didn’t expect that he was the one who took her daughter away last time. She had been looking for him for a whole day. Stephen even sent out the staff in the park. It was dark and they looked everywhere with flashlights, but they couldn’t find her. She had to call the police. She was frightened.
It was not until the second day that the police found her daughter and Stephen went to the police station to pick her up that she breathed a sigh of relief. She was really scared to death that day. She was afraid that she would never find her daughter again.
“Why did you do that?” She frowned in confusion and stared at Tangbin angrily.
“No reason. Besides, she is your daughter. I won’t hurt her.” There was a relaxed smile at the corners of his mouth, completely hiding her anger in the bottom of his heart.
“You’ve gone too far!” She said angrily. But it had passed, and her daughter was safe and sound. There was no need for her to care so much about it.
“If you want to see your daughter, I have a way to bring her back.” Tangbin looked at her and said seriously.
Hearing what he said, Yangshuting looked at him in surprise. Although she missed her daughter very much, Lingweihao only allowed her to visit her daughter for two times a month, which was going to gouge out her flesh, she believed that Lingweihao would not ignore her daughter so much. He would ask the housekeeper or servants to watch her all the time. What ability did he have to take his daughter away from her and let them reunite?!
She mocked herself in her heart.
She said, “no, thanks. I don’t want anyone else to be involved in my business.”
“You don’t believe me?” He was no longer what he used to be. He was well-dressed and had worked hard in a company for many years. In order to get the position, he had tried every means to get close to the daughter of the boss of the company, but behind him, he had to cruelly abandon his girlfriend who had been with him for many years. However, Baiwei was dead. She was beaten to death because of a huge debt and thrown into the river. Then the police found Baiwei’s corpse downstream. But this case involved gangs, so the police hastily closed the case. On the day when Baiwei was cremated, he went to the funeral home to worship her. Baiwei’s parents cried heartbrokenly. The white haired man gave the black haired man away.
“It’s not that I don’t believe you. You have to think about who he is. He is Lingweihao. He won’t be so stupid to let his daughter out. Even if he wants to go out, there are bodyguards, servants, housekeepers and maids…” she persuaded him, hoping that he would not interfere in her family affairs.
“If you want, I have a way. There is nothing that I can’t do.” He said to Yangshuting confidently, with a confident smile on his face.
Yangshuting looked at him in surprise again. She saw an aura from him, which she had never seen before. What had happened to him in the past seven years? She didn’t know.
She frowned slightly and said, “Tangbin, thank you for your kindness, but it’s my business.”
He raised his eyebrows and said to her that if you want to see your daughter, you can tell him. After saying that, he took out a piece of paper and a pen, quickly wrote down his phone number on the paper, and then moved to her. He said again, “this is my number. If you have anything, you can call me.”
He smiled at her slightly. The wound at the corner of his mouth was like a centipede, somewhat horrified. Then he stood up and left the cafe, leaving Yangshuting alone.
She looked at the phone number in front of her. After a long time, she didn’t know why she folded it and put it in her bag. Maybe she would turn to him for help in the future!
In the villa of the Ling family
Sally just got off work and went back to the villa of the Ling family. Now she completely treated this place as her own home, because the little fiend was not at home these days, so she looked relaxed and at ease.
Thinking of this, a smile of joy and complacency often appeared on her scarlet lips. She hoped that the little fiend would always live in the old house and stay with her grandparents. She didn’t want to come back here, so that she wouldn’t be annoyed and headache when she saw her. She also wanted to think of all kinds of ways to coax her in front of Carlos, amuse her, and be angry with her
This little devil was as stubborn as Lingweihao.
She was sitting on a pure white sofa, rubbing her sore legs. It seemed that she hadn’t slept with Lingweihao for a long time. What would she react if she took a photo of them sleeping on the same bed and sent it to Yangshuting?
Thinking of this, she sneered and squinted slightly, with an unreadable dark light in her eyes.
She took out her phone and dialed Lingweihao’s number. The call was soon connected. She asked when he would come back? He said he would come back late to meet his clients and asked her not to wait for him for dinner. She didn’t say anything. She just asked him to take care of himself and not to be too tired. He just answered her lightly. Then he hung up.
With a smile in her eyes, Sally leaned back on the sofa comfortably. Suddenly, she raised her eyebrows, picked up her golden leather bag full of pearls, stood up and walked towards the two floors.
That night, Justin came back very late. He went to the club to drink with his clients, and his face was red because of drinking. Rongyufeng drove him back, and then helped him into the villa. Butler Lincame up to help him and helped him sit down on the sofa. Seeing him drink so much, he was unconscious.
Rongyufeng bowed slightly to the Butler Lin, and then took a look at Justin, who was lying on the sofa. Without saying anything, he turned around and left directly.
In the room, hearing the sound of a car coming from downstairs, Sally was ecstatic. She wore a black lace Nightgown, a light purple nightgown and a belt. Then she went out of the room and went downstairs. She saw Lingweihao, who was drunk and lying on the sofa, and Butler Linwas wiping his face with a towel.
“Miss Li!” Seeing that Sally came downstairs, Butler Linstood up and greeted her politely.
“Why did Victor drink so much?” Sally walked up to him and said with a frown when she saw his red face and smell of alcohol.
Butler Lindidn’t say anything either. It was not the first time that Masterwas drunk. Since he quarreled with Madam and broke up, he had become like this. He got drunk almost every night, and sometimes he even didn’t come back all night.
