“Ling Weihao, when will you come back?” The pleasant voice of Li Xiyu was like a beautiful song to him.
He looked at the night sky outside the French window, the brightly lit buildings and the intersecting highway. He didn’t know how long he had been half asleep here, but he only knew that no one had come in to disturb him
He said lightly, “wait a minute!”
“I heard that you sounded unhappy. Is there any trouble at work or any reason?” It had to be said that Li Xiyu was a careful woman. Even if she didn’t face to face, she could feel the bottom of her heart through a voice.
“No.” He said.
After a moment’s silence, he said, “then come back early. Qingyan and I are waiting for you to have dinner together!”
If she hadn’t mentioned his daughter, he would have forgotten that he should go home. There was a daughter at home who needed his company. Although she resembled his mother in character, he had tried his best to be responsible.
“Okay!” After he hung up the phone, the office returned to silence. It was so quiet that only his slow breath could be heard. He reached out for his suit jacket and strode out of the office.
The employees had already got off work. In the empty office building, his footsteps echoed in the corridor. The light shone on his handsome face, and his tall figure was longer and shorter
Getting out of the garage, he walked to the front of the car, opened the door, sat on the driver’s seat, started the engine, and drove out of the garage. Soon they arrived at the city center where people were coming and going.
It was already seven o’clock in the evening, but the outside world was noisy and bustling, he was thinking about Yang Shuting again. She called him today and said that she wanted to see her daughter, but he said in a harsh tone with a bit of ridicule and contempt that he didn’t allow her to see her.
He couldn’t indulge this woman. She was as arrogant as a peacock and didn’t take him seriously.
Back to the villa of the Ling family, he got out of the car and strode into the villa. He saw that Li Xiyu was sitting on the sofa in the living room and drinking scented tea elegantly. Seeing that he finally came back, she smiled brightly like fireworks. She stood up and walked to him, took the suit jacket in his hand and said softly, “I’m waiting for you to come back for dinner!”
“Where is Qingyan?” Lingweihao looked at Xi Yu indifferently, but didn’t see his daughter on the first floor, so he asked her.
The bright smile on Xi Yu’s face made her unwilling when she saw his calm expression and eyes. In his heart, except for the little fiend, she had no place at all.
She smiled gently and said, “Yanyan is in the room!”
“Go and ask her to come downstairs for dinner!” Lingweihao unbuttoned his sleeves and walked into the dining room.
Li Xiyu’s face darkened and her smile disappeared. Did he ask her to call his daughter down for dinner in person? She was so precious. No matter how she contradicted him, and made him angry for four times, he took her as a pearl and held her in his palm.
Her hand holding the suit jacket couldn’t help clenching, and almost wrinkled the suit on the cloth. She bit it tightly, took a deep breath, and went upstairs to ask the little fiend to come downstairs for dinner.
Twenty minutes had passed. Sitting in the dining room, Ling Weihao showed an impatient expression on his face. He turned to the Butler Lin and said, “go and see why Xi Yu and Miss Ling haven’t come down yet!”
The Butler Lin nodded. But before he walked out of the dining room, he saw Qingyan in a white T-shirt and sun top jeans, followed by Li Xiyu.
There was no expression on Lingweihao’s face. His dark eyes were sharp. He looked at Qingyan, but when she met his eyes, she looked back at him with cold eyes without fear.
If Yang Shuting was an arrogant peacock, then Qingyan was an arrogant white swan. The two of them were both stubborn and troublesome.
He turned his eyes slightly and said, “let’s eat!”
Sitting next to him, Li Xiyu took a look at her. It took her nine efforts to coax her out of the room. She was like a little princess who didn’t take her seriously at all. A surge of anger rose in her heart, but she tried to restrain it.
With a gentle smile, she picked up some beef and put it in Lingweihao’s bowl.
Lingweihao looked at the beef in his bowl and looked up at Xi Yu who was smiling at him. He said nothing and lowered his head to eat.
The three of them ate quietly, but the first one to be full was Stephanie. Without saying a word, she left the chair and walked out of the dining room.
Lingweihao raised his head and looked at her back. She treated him so silently and indifferently, and he only felt desolate in the bottom of his heart. How much she hated him, his own daughter, treated him like this.
“Monday is the day when Qingyan will go back to school. Are you going to drive her to school?” Li Xiyu suddenly said.
“I have a station. I don’t have time. I’ll ask the housekeeper to send her there.” He found an excuse. It was not that he didn’t want to give it to her. He wanted to give it to her, but she might not appreciate it.
“Oh, really?” Xi Yu rolled her eyes and snickered.
“What’s wrong? Is there anything wrong?” He asked.
She shook her head and said, “I just think that you should spend more time with her. Maybe she will change her opinion of you!”
She had to pretend to be sensible and gentle in front of him, so that he would look at her with new eyes and change his feelings for her.
“I know, but I don’t think she needs me.” Lingweihao said casually while eating.
Hearing this, Li Xiyu just smiled and said nothing.
After dinner in the evening, Justin went back to the study as soon as possible. When he passed by Sharon’s room, he couldn’t help but stop. He wanted to see what she was doing in the room, but when he thought of her cold attitude and indifferent eyes, he gave up the idea and went straight to his study, pushing the door open and entering.
At this time, Li Xiyu cut some fruits and brought them up herself. As soon as she came up, the door of Qingyan’s room opened. She was stunned, and then smiled gently.
Seeing that she was hypocritically walking towards the study with the fruit in her hand, Qingyan walked up to her and took the fruit in her hand. “Thank you!”
After saying that, she turned around and walked into the room. With a loud bang, she slammed the door, leaving Li Xiyu standing there in a daze. With a dark face, she narrowed her sharp eyes and clenched her teeth angrily. She was really pissed off by the little fiend.
Lingweihao stayed in the study until midnight. He leaned back on the chair wearily, with a cigarette between his fingers. The cigarette end flickered, and a wisp of cyan smoke rose until it dissipated. The light in the study was blazing and pale.
His marriage with her had ended up like this, but he still couldn’t forget her. He still loved her, but she was stubborn and stubborn. Did she feel the warmth of this love?
She couldn’t feel it, or she wouldn’t have fought with him in the court.
At this time, the door of the study was pushed open. He heard the sound. He knew who had come in, but he did not turn around the chair. Instead, he looked at the deep night sky outside through the French window.
Wearing a black lace Pajama, Li Xiyu’s shoulders were exposed, and her cleavage was partly hidden and partly visible. Her skin was fair and bright in the light. She walked over, squatted in front of him, raised her head and looked at the handsome man in front of her, blinking her beautiful eyes.
“I saw the light in your study was still on, so I came to see you. It’s so late. What are you thinking about?” When she called him tonight, she could tell the sadness in his voice. She asked him what was wrong. He didn’t say anything, and she didn’t force him.
“I’m thinking that once a cup that was originally intact fell to the ground and broke, no matter how hard to repair it, it would still be covered with scars.” He looked out of the window again and said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Xi Yu’s heart sank into a cold valley. She knew that he was thinking about Yang Shuting. As soon as he saw Qingyan, he would think of her. She was the combination of the two of him and Yang Shuting, and she had the shadow of Yang Shuting.
Sometimes, when she saw Qingyan, she would think of the poor [兮兮] in the court, but Yang Shuting was stubborn in her eyes.
She pulled the corner of her mouth and said, “if the cup is broken, just throw it away. Stay here. You can’t use it, and occasionally your hand will be hurt by the glass pieces. It’s still painful. Find another cup to use!”
Her words were obvious.
This relationship has been in the past. Just let it go and try to talk about another relationship!
Lingweihao looked at Xi Yu again and frowned. He knew what she meant. But under this situation, he was not in the mood to run another relationship.
“It’s late. Go back to your room and have a rest!” He said to her.
Her eyes were as bright as the stars. She looked at him. He was as handsome as a God. She was like his unwelcome concubine, begging him to love and pity her.
“What about you? Why don’t you go to bed?” Her voice was soft, as clear and pleasant as water.
“I want to stay a little longer.” He said in a low voice, looking tired.
He closed his eyes slightly and supported his heavy head with one hand on the armrest, ignoring Li Xiyu.
Seeing this, the smile on Li Xiyu’s face froze. Seeing him like this, she didn’t want to disturb him anymore. She stood up and left the study.
She walked out of the study and closed the door. Her eyes narrowed slightly, and a dark light became more and more angry. Yang Shuting was like a malignant tumor in his heart. She had to find a way to get rid of it.
After Qingyan went back to school, Jonson asked Butler Lin to drive her to school in person. He had a full schedule and was busy every day. As long as he was busy, he would not think of herQingyan is picked up by a special person from school. That foreign language school is a noble school, full of children from all kinds of rich families.
“Mommy, I have class today!” As soon as she came back in the afternoon, Qingyan ran back to the villa quickly with her schoolbag. She ran to the telephone and dialed the number skillfully. As soon as the phone was answered, she told her mother excitedly.
“Really? How do you feel about the new environment? Is there anything uncomfortable?” Yang Shuting was in the warehouse of the company, listening to her daughter’s phone call.
“I didn’t get used to it at first. I believe I will get used to it in the future. But Mommy, do you want to live here and work here? Then we can often see each other.” Qingyan blinked her beautiful eyes and said. She was eager to see her mother.
