Tang Muzhi kept walking along the street, her thoughts wandering.
Although she was shocked when she learned Jing Xiao's identity, she didn't blame him for hiding it. After all, everyone has secrets in their hearts and has the right to keep them.
She didn't care what Jing Xiao's status was, whether he was rich or penniless. Anyway, after being together for so long, she was attracted to Jing Xiao as a person, not his status.
But now, the only thing she couldn't figure out was the real reason why Jing Xiao had a flash marriage with her, and it wasn't the perfunctory excuse he gave when they first met.
Perhaps it was because Jing Xiao didn't answer immediately just now that she blurted out that she wanted them all to think carefully.
From this point of view, what she just said was mostly out of anger.
Suddenly, an unexpected cell phone ringtone rang, and it took her a long time to hear it in the noisy street.
Seeing that the call was from his mother, Tang Muzhi quickly answered the call.
"Mom." She called out hoarsely.
"Zhizhi, are you okay?" Weng Lu's anxious inquiry came from the other side of the phone.
She blinked her eyes, the tip of her nose was sore, and her throat was inexplicably choked, but she did not show any abnormality, but tried to speak in a calm tone, "I'm fine. You should have heard about my dad, right?"
"Yeah, I got it." A few seconds later, Weng Lu changed the subject again, "Zhizhi, how about you come over for dinner tonight..."
"No need." Tang Muzhi's fingertips holding the phone shrank slightly, and she randomly found excuses to say, "Mom, I have something to do, so I won't tell you now."
As soon as she finished speaking, she hung up the phone without giving her mother a chance to speak.
There are too many things pressing in her heart right now, and she is afraid that she will not be able to hide her emotions and make her mother worried and troubled, so it is better not to see her.
Tang Muzhi stood on the roadside for a while, Jing Xiao was watching not far behind her, his eyes chasing her figure, and there were thousands of emotions intertwined in his heart.
He wants to leave time for each other, but he is afraid that if he leaves time, the problems between them will continue to increase.
After a while, Tang Muzhi reached out and stopped the car.
After getting in the car, she reported an address to the driver, then took out her mobile phone to send a WeChat message, and then turned her head to look out the window in trance.
Half an hour later, she arrived at her destination. As soon as she got off the car, Yu Youxi, not far away, walked quickly towards her.
"I originally wanted to call you at night, but you came here by yourself." Yu Youxi took her arm and led her inside.
She already knew about Tang Hong, so when Tang Muzhi sent her a message saying that he was coming over, she subconsciously thought that she was worried about this matter and wanted to talk to someone.
Tang Muzhi put away the bad emotions in his eyes, pulled a smile from the corner of his mouth, and didn't speak in a hurry, as if he was considering his words.
They quickly entered the house and sat down on the sofa in the living room.
Yu Youxi lives alone. She is afraid that her family will force her to go on a blind date, so she usually doesn't go home. This is why Tang Muzhi wants to come over to find her.
Yu Youxi took out the milk tea from the takeout bag on the table and gave her a cup, "I ordered it after I received your message. It just arrived and is still hot."
"Thank you." After Tang Muzhi took it, she didn't rush to drink it, but straight to the point, "Youzi, can I stay with you for a few days?"
Right now, if she wants to calm down with Jing Xiao, she can't live together. Yajiang Beiyuan is not her house, so she should stay there temporarily.
"Okay." Yu Youxi agreed readily, but soon realized something was wrong. She walked to sit next to her and asked, "Why do you suddenly want to live here with me? Did you have a quarrel with your guy? "
"No." She shook her head, took a sip of milk tea, and then changed her words, "It's not a quarrel."
"Ah?" Yu Youxi's eyes widened in an instant. She felt that the milk tea in her hand was no longer fragrant, and asked hurriedly, "What do you mean? What do you mean it's not a quarrel? Weren't you very nice when you were in Tanzhou before? Okay? I've only been back for a few days, isn't it because of your dad's incident? He's afraid of being affected by this incident, right? "
Her mouth was like a machine gun, and it kept talking. Tang Mu Zhi could hardly get a word in, so he had no choice but to drink milk tea and wait for her to finish her words before speaking.
However, her actions made Yu Youxi a little dissatisfied. He snatched the milk tea from her hand and scolded: "Stop drinking and talk. Why?"
"You didn't even give me a chance to speak, what did I say?" She muttered, blinking twice in pretense of grievance.
Yu Youxi put the milk tea back on the table, turned sideways, and sat cross-legged on the sofa, staring at her closely, "Then you say it, and I'll listen."
Tang Muzhi came here to talk to her, so there was nothing to hesitate at this moment. He said bluntly: "It's not because of my dad's matter. He didn't care about it. He even helped me find a lawyer to handle this matter before. He …”
"Isn't it because of this?" Yu Youxi couldn't help but interrupt and urged, "Then why?"
When her words were interrupted, she sighed helplessly and said concisely: "He is Jinghe's brother."
"What?" Yu Youxi was startled and choked on the milk tea she just drank.
"Take it easy." Tang Muzhi raised his hand and patted her back, his face full of speechlessness.
Yu Youxi was completely stunned, and it took her a while to come back to her senses, "Please let me slow down and think about it for a moment. You just said, Jingxiao, your husband, Jinghe, the Jinghe who is chasing you, Are they brothers?"
"Half-mother." She said four words lightly.
"Jinghe is the son of the richest man in Haicheng, so isn't Jing Xiao the same? If that's the case, then isn't Master Jing Jing Xiao? The birthday party that shocked the whole city on New Year's Day, turned out to be his? Oh my God, it turned out to be his. I am so close to the richest man, I saw him last time in Tanzhou, but he is Jinghe’s brother, so don’t you become Jinghe’s sister-in-law, won’t it be awkward to meet him in the future?”
Yu Youxi pulled her excitedly and kept talking, one sentence after another, which made Tang Mu Zhi's head buzz.
She frowned and tapped Yu Youxi's hand on her arm, and then said, "I have nothing to do with Jinghe, so there is nothing to be embarrassed about."
Besides, the relationship between the two brothers doesn't seem to be very good, and I'm afraid there won't be many opportunities to meet each other in the future.
However, she was not sure yet whether she would continue her marriage to Jing Xiao, so why did she start to worry about her family relationship?
"Jing Xiao never told you his identity?" Yu Youxi asked in surprise.
She nodded and gave a definite answer.
Yu Youxi became even more curious and exclaimed, "Oh my god, he hid it so deeply. Did you quarrel with him because you just found out?"
"I told you there was no quarrel." Tang Muzhi's voice increased a little, and he rolled his eyes at her speechlessly.
"Really?" She raised her eyebrows, obviously not believing it.
Faced with her questioning gaze, Tang Muzhi finally chose to tell the truth, "I just couldn't accept it for a while, and I couldn't understand why he wanted to have a flash marriage with me when his status is so good."
"This is indeed worthy of scrutiny." Yu Youxi touched her chin and thought, then asked after a moment, "Then how did you know his identity? He has been hiding it very well, how could you easily discover it?"
After that, Tang Muzhi told her everything about what happened during lunch.
But after hearing that, Yu Youxi seemed not satisfied yet, and asked her and Jing Xiao to explain everything from acquaintance to flash marriage, and from Tanzhou to now.
Tang Muzhi was a little embarrassed to talk about her relationship history for the first time, especially when she thought of certain scenes, her heart always beat very fast.
After listening to her love story, Yu Youxi leaned back on the sofa, glanced sideways at her, and said slowly: "In this way, Twilight, your purpose of marrying him is very speechless. You are so stupid." It’s not just because of Grandma Jing that I fall in love with Jing Xiao.”
"I didn't think much about it at the time." When talking about grandma, Tang Muzhi's mood dropped a bit, "I know it's not a good thing to regard Grandma Jing as my grandma, but at that time, I... …”
"Okay, I understand, you were just too sad at that time." Yu Youxi put her arm around her shoulders and patted her comfortingly.
Tang Mu Zhi said no more, his face was a bit pale, and his emotions were difficult to calm down for a long time.
After a long time, she spoke again, "Actually, I asked Jing Xiao why he wanted to have a flash marriage with me?"
"Then what did he say?" Yu Youxi asked curiously, staring at her closely.
"He didn't answer." Tang Muzhi lowered his eyes and looked at the milk tea cup on the coffee table, looking dazed.
Yu Youxi didn't understand what she said. She frowned tightly and murmured, "What do you mean by not answering? Does he not know how to say it?"
"I don't know either. My mind is very confused right now and I can't figure out many things."
She and Jing Xiao have not known each other for a long time, but a lot of things have happened. If we want to trace the origin, it can be understood that everyone in the Jing family, grandparents, aunt, and family, they all once helped Jing Xiao. To tell a lie?
But why? Why would the Jing family agree? Don’t they have requirements and standards for choosing a granddaughter-in-law?
The more she delved into this matter, the more doubts Tang Muzhi had in her heart. She felt like her brain was about to short-circuit.
If she had known that she couldn't think clearly, she shouldn't have said such things to Jing Xiao in anger. She should have waited a little longer. Maybe if she stayed a few more minutes, everything would be clear.
When she thought of this, she regretted it.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang.
"Who is it?" Yu Youxi shouted from behind the door, then ran to open the door.
When she saw the person standing at the door, her eyes suddenly widened.
The man at the door is Jing Xiao. He is tall and straight, with almost no expression on his face. The emotions in his eyes are extremely complicated, and he has a cold aura all over his body. He is very similar to the way he looked when we met in Tanzhou before, but there is something different about him. different.
