Chapter 222 The incident came to light
Xie Lingxi was a little panicked. This time she would suddenly be caught off guard by being exposed about what happened five years ago.
She really didn't even think about it in her dreams, so she didn't have any countermeasures at all. Of course, when she hurriedly threw the scissors she had just used beside the sink, a man's tall voice flashed past the kitchen door, and then she heard a "swipe" of the sliding door, and someone Push away.
…………
"...Jing, Jinglan?"
Xie Lingxi subconsciously stood forward to block the trash can behind her. Her hands were shaking a little, so she could only turn her hands away and clasp her fingers tightly in her palms, trying to calm herself down, "... Why did you come back suddenly? You didn’t talk to me in advance..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw the newspaper in Ye Jinglan's right hand.
Xie Lingxi's heart skipped a beat, and a feeling of gloom came over his face.
She was so frightened that her face turned pale. It took her a moment to react. She quickly stepped forward and snatched the newspaper from Ye Jinglan's hand. She spoke awkwardly, "...this newspaper, Jinglan...listen to me, this is all It's not true... I really don't know why someone suddenly wrote these things, but believe me, these are not true... Jing Lan, believe me..."
"I need an explanation, let me believe your explanation."
Ye Jinglan put one hand in the pocket of his trousers and spread his fingers on the other hand, supporting it on the marble countertop. He frowned, and his tone was calm, but extremely low, "You have been with me for so many years, and I always thought, I know you very well, of course you can be willful sometimes, I think I can tolerate it, I won’t say anything more. It’s just this time... You should know that what I, Ye Jinglan, hate the most is deception, understand? ?Don’t say I didn’t give you a chance, I gave you a chance, so I came to you, you can explain now.”
"........."
Xie Lingxi's heart plummeted, as if she fell into a bottomless abyss in an instant——
Ye Jinglan would never speak to him like this, his expression was so sharp...
Will this report that caught her off guard send her to the 18th level of hell, where she will never be able to stand up again?
No...can't...
There was a voice in Xie Lingxi's heart, shouting sharply——
Can't! Absolutely not!
She thanked Lingxi. Regardless of whether he had really done anything wrong to Ye Jinglan, but he... was absolutely loyal to her? Isn't he the same, he used to have fun outside? He even said that he would let himself be Young Mistress Ye, but after she waited for so many years, he still didn't do the same, allowing himself to live up to his reputation.
…………
She is right, she has never been wrong, why should she feel guilty? She doesn't need to feel guilty!
"you do not believe me?"
It was probably that thought that prompted her to calm down.
Xie Lingxi straightened her back subconsciously, and her eyes, which were still twinkling at first, became particularly magnanimous when facing Ye Jinglan. Sometimes, when people speak and do things, they just rely on aura. She felt that she was not wrong, so the aura returned to her in an instant, "It's like you said, I have been with you for so many years, I am indeed unruly and willful sometimes, but don't you know how I treat you? Now that you have seen such gossip, you would rather question me than believe me? "
Ye Jinglan didn't answer. He stared at Xie Lingxi with deep eyes. There was a long silence, and Xie Lingxi's heart was beating loudly as he stared. Finally, he heard his deep voice, which sounded strange. Calmly, he suddenly asked her, "...there is something that I didn't plan to say originally, but now, I want to ask you - Lingling, when Nian Zhi went to B City, something like that happened. After that, , have you contacted Mr. Zhang?"
Xie Lingxi, "…………"
City B, Mr. Zhang?
Isn't that... when Nian Zhi just returned to C City, she went on a business trip with Song Wenjing, and she found someone to bribe Mr. Zhang to set her up?
What's going on, Ye Jinglan...why did he suddenly mention this matter?
…………
Xie Lingxi was flustered. She was like a headless fly now. She had no idea where else she could fly. She found a place to stay and stood still. She panicked and ran around here and there. In the end, her head was bruised and bloody. , but still refused to admit defeat.
"...Jing Lan, what exactly do you want to say? What happened in City B... Mr. Zhang, how could I know?"
Ye Jinglan took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and held it in the corner of his mouth.
He squinted his eyes and said, "Lingling, before, I really felt that you were a woman without any scheming. You know, what I, Ye Jinglan, hate the most are people who are too calculating. I told you before, right What? I have lived in a family like the Ye family since I was a child. People outside see me, Ye Jinglan, as glamorous, but my family is not happy at all. Ever since I was sensible, my mother has often quarreled with my father. I watched They pretend to be peaceful outside, but they use all kinds of tricks at home. You probably can't understand that feeling. When my old man was young, I counted all the women who were taken away by my mother using all kinds of tricks outside. But come here. So you know what? Lingling, I hate this kind of drama. I know how much you want to be my Ye Jinglan’s wife. I have indeed been working hard before. It’s a pity that you are so uneasy. , I can’t stand it anymore.”
The man's slender fingers casually dusted off the cigarette ashes, "... Regarding the matter in City B, I know that you found someone to bribe Mr. Zhang and designed Nian Zhi. But it's a pity that there was Song Wenjing beside her at that time. He I helped her and escaped disaster.”
"........."
Xie Lingxi's face, at this moment, was uglier than that of a zombie.
