Zhu Li couldn't recognize the LOGO on the front of the car, but what was certain was that this car was definitely not comparable to a car costing 200,000 to 300,000 yuan.
She was slightly distracted when the driver's door opened, and a graceful beauty wearing stiletto heels and a brown woolen coat walked out.
Never mind comparing anything.
Their eyes met, and Julie couldn't help but feel ashamed. She was the kind of woman who wore famous brands and lived a petty bourgeoisie life. However, compared with this person who had just got off the car, her temperament was... , or the outfit, and the femininity exuded by every gesture, are all quite different.
Is this woman... also here to pick someone up?
Just as she was thinking about this, she heard a clicking sound in her ears. The woman came to the two of them, looked at Zhu Li, and then at Lin Yue.
"Sorry, there was a traffic jam on the road, so I'm late."
Is she here to pick up Su Mingcheng?
Julie looked confused, and her eyes kept going back and forth between the two people's faces. While she was surprised, she also felt a sour feeling in her heart.
"Who is this?" the woman asked with a smile.
Lin Yue said: "My ex-wife, Julie."
"Ex-wife, hello." The woman stretched out her right hand towards her, her manner was generous and decent, but there was an inexplicable emotion in the words "ex-wife".
"Her name is Amy, she is Liu Qing's...ex-girlfriend."
"Hello."
Julie was a person with a good face. Of course she couldn't be rude when someone extended her hand to express goodwill, so she went over to shake the other person's hand. Their hands were connected. Along with the smoothness and delicacy coming from her fingertips, there was also a gentle breeze on her face. The light floral fragrance smelled better than any perfume she had ever used.
Lin Yue added: "By the way, you know Fengjiang, right? Amy is still the president of Fengjiang."
Of course Fengjiang knew that the third largest machine tool manufacturer in the Yangtze River Delta was in competition with Lijin and Zhongcheng. Combined with the information that Amy was Liu Qing’s ex-girlfriend, she took it for granted that Su Mingyu had sought a doctor for eardrum perforation. The recording was provided by Amy, and at least the hostility in his heart disappeared a lot.
Amy said: "Let's go, I've booked a room at Marriott to help you take care of yourself."
Lin Yue nodded and was about to ask Zhu Li to get in the car when a cell phone ringtone came from her bag.
"yes, Sir……"
Julie's expression was a little strange.
"Su Mingzhe?" Lin Yue said, "Did you tell him that I came out today?"
Julie said: "Yes, I thought he was coming to pick you up. After all, he is a biological brother."
Lin Yue smiled noncommittally, took the phone from her hand, pressed the connect button and put it to his ear.
"Hey, Julie, is it ready tomorrow?"
"Got it."
"Mingcheng? You're answering the phone, that's just right. That's right, I heard that Feifei Mingyu did something very excessive to you."
"That's right."
"This Mingyu really disappoints me! I already called her and scolded her to help you vent your anger."
"oh."
"Originally, eldest brother should have picked you up, but the company's management is very strict. I just came here a few days ago and I can't leave. Don't blame eldest brother."
"Won't."
"That's good." Su Mingzhe paused: "Mingcheng, Mingyu, what she did was wrong. Dad and I told her, and she also made it clear that there will be no next time. We are a family, and we are all bleeding. My parents' blood, I think you are also the elder brother. Can you forgive her this time? Don't hold her responsible? Mingyu left home when he was young. It is not easy to have the current career. As the saying goes, enemies are better off. It’s not appropriate to untie knots, what do you think?”
"cannot!"
Lin Yue's answer was short and concise. Su Mingzhe choked on these two words and burped.
"Mingcheng, what you... are doing is too heartless? If my mother is alive, she will definitely not be happy to know that you are pinched like this."
"When we get close, we are like mothers, but when we break off the relationship, we are unfilial to our children? How can I say that you are both justified? Su Mingzhe, what were you doing when Su Mingyu persuaded Su Daqiang to publish an article in the Gusu Evening News? If you had posted the article in the newspaper at that time, Throw it in Su Daqiang’s face, saying that he is just a damn old guy. I might have given you some face today, but unfortunately you didn’t, and you didn’t even bother to make peace with me. Su Mingyu made a false accusation, and you did it again when he wanted me to go to jail. What? Do you think I don’t know? Now you still have the nerve to beg me to let that bitch go?"
"Mingcheng, what you said is too much. I called Mingyu, but she didn't answer."
"If she didn't pick you up, she could have gone to the hospital to block people, but you didn't. You chose the former between work and your brother, so what's there to say?"
"Mingcheng..."
"Su Mingzhe, if I'm not wrong, Wu Fei asked you to make this call, because once Su Mingyu's wealth is reduced to zero, the responsibility of taking care of Su Daqiang will fall on you two. After what she has experienced, she is not willing to take care of her. Is that the evil old man right?"
"..."
Lin Yue didn't talk nonsense to him anymore, hung up the phone directly and returned the phone to Zhu Li.
"Brother...are you interceding for Su Mingyu?"
"That's right."
Julie was speechless. As far as her understanding of the boss was concerned, she always spoke beautifully, but when it came time to put her words into practice, she was always disappointed.
"Let's go and eat first."
Lin Yue took Zhu Li into the second-hand Cruze and left the detention center behind Amy's Alfa Romeo car.
"What is your... relationship with her?"
After driving forward for ten minutes, she finally couldn't hold it back and asked her inner question.
Lin Yue replied casually: "Friends."
friend?
Would ordinary friends come to the detention center to pick someone up at such a time?
"What? Do you have a sense of crisis? Then you have to behave well and don't give her a chance to snatch me away."
"Su Mingcheng!"
Julie puffed up her cheeks and glared: "I have done so much for you, is this how you treat me?"
"Didn't your mother always say that you were blind to fall in love with me? In order to prove that she is wrong, she must recognize the truth. Otherwise, how could she let her excellent daughter remarry an incompetent mama's boy? Woolen cloth?"
She always felt something was wrong with what she said, but yes, it did make some sense. Regarding Kang Xin's previous evaluation of Su Mingcheng, after searching all the adjectives, the only one that could be called a compliment was wife-loving.
The rest are words like "can't make a lot of money", "average appearance", "not highly educated", "cheating on old age" and "selfish".
"But...but...you can't..."
"Did I say she was my girlfriend? Did I say I wanted to marry her? Julie, it's just a matter of love. It's never too much. Don't ruin your advantages."
"..."
Julie didn't know what to say, but she felt very awkward anyway. Thinking about her experiences during this period, it seemed that every time she saw him, he was different, and his attitude towards her was also the same every day.
…
An hour and a half later, the three of them finished their meal and left the hotel lobby.
Zhu Li looked at Luo Luo and generous, chatting and laughing freely throughout the whole process... She didn't know whether to use love rival or other words to describe the beautiful CEO. While she had an overwhelming sense of crisis, she also felt worried about gains and losses.
"Okay, I'll leave first. You've been locked up in there for several days. Go upstairs and rest for a while. Call me when you have time."
Amy waved to the two of them and drove away from the hotel.
Lin Yue was about to take Julie to the room opened by Amy to rest when her cell phone rang.
"It's my mother."
She made a shushing gesture, picked up the phone and put it to her ear.
"Lili, tell me, are you with Su Mingcheng now?"
"Mom...this..."
She was like a child whose lies had been exposed. She spoke hesitantly and felt uneasy.
"You told me that the director asked you to go back to work. Did you go to work? You were fooling around with Su Mingcheng! Lili, why did you become like this?"
"Mom...I...I didn't, why did you..."
"You still want to lie to me? Su Daqiang is at our house. It was he who told you to be together."
Su Daqiang went home?
Zhu Li was stunned for a moment, then held the phone and looked at Lin Yue with pleading eyes: "Your dad is now at my house. What should I do...?"
"Just do whatever you have to do."
Lin Yue walked to his car, opened the cab door, and winked at her: "Get in the car."
"Where to go?"
"your home."
"ah?!"
Half an hour later, the car stopped at the downstairs of Zhu Li's house. The two took the elevator to the door of her house. Seeing his ex-wife cowering, Lin Yue said with a smile, "Do you think she will give me a shame when I come to the door empty-handed?" , while knocking on the door.
Dong Dong Dong~
Dong Dong Dong~
Three seconds later, the door opened with a click, and what they saw was Zhu Zhenggang's face.
He looked at Lin Yue, then at his daughter, and took a step back: "Come in."
Zhu Li lowered her head and did not dare to look at him, and followed Lin Yue into the living room.
"You still have the nerve to come back."
As soon as she entered the door, she heard Kang Xin's angry scolding.
"Kangxin, are you sick? You were the one who called her to come back, and you were the one who fired shots when we met. Do you think she is willing to come back? If you weren't so troublesome, I would be loving your daughter in the hotel right now."
Zhu Li didn't dare to contradict Kang Xin, but Lin Yue did. Not only did he dare, but his words were more of a humiliation than a contradiction.
"You...you little brat."
The middle-aged woman became furious, pointed outside and shouted: "Get out, get out of here."
"Neuropathy."
Lin Yue gave her the middle finger, took Zhu Li's hand and walked out.
Su Daqiang was sitting on the sofa in the living room waiting for someone. When he saw his second son's attitude towards his mother-in-law, he blinked his very recognizable fish eyes with a look on his face.
