Lin Xiluo walked up to Su Zhengliang, the burning passion in his deep eyes flashed away, and then he said expressionlessly, "You're here."
Lika's green pupils narrowed slightly, her white hands grabbed Lin Xiluo's arm, and she forced a smile towards Su Zhengliang.
Su Zhengliang focused part of his attention on Lika and did not notice Linxiluo's instant change in expression.
He gave Lika a meaningful smile, and his clear voice fell sadly, "I heard Mr. Li said that you are not here and are preparing to go back."
Lin Xiluo looked out of the corner of his eye and noticed that someone was peeping at him. He said quietly, "I went shopping with Lika. What, you have something to do with me?"
Su Zhengliang's delicate brows were knitted together, her beautiful narrow eyes showed a complicated expression, and she was silent for a long time.
Sensing the solidified atmosphere in the air, Lika felt really uncomfortable. She quickly let go of her hand and said, "Lin, Mr. Su must have something to talk to you about. I'll go back to Lin's house and wait for you."
Lin Xiluo grabbed Lika back, raised his eyebrows calmly, and said matter-of-factly, "Baby, didn't you say you wanted to have lunch with me later? What should I do now that I'm gone?"
Hearing the word "baby", a look of noncommittal astonishment crept onto Su Zhengliang's pale face.
Youyou lowered his eyes, and the thin lip line raised a touch of sourness. It turned out that besides himself, he also called other people with such words.
Lika coquettishly declined, "Then I'll stay with you tonight. Mr. Su must have something very important to come to you for. I don't dare to be interested in the topics discussed between you men."
Lin Xiluo rubbed Lika's head lovingly, "Okay, I'll ask Xiaofan to take you back."
Lika raised her little face and smiled.
Silently watching the affectionate couple in front of him, Su Zhengliang felt that the tenderness and affection between them was like a deep gap, completely excluding him.
His cold palms were tightly closed, and the ring on his left hand was deeply embedded in his palm, but he could not feel the dull pain at all.
The corners of Su Zhengliang's mouth dropped in frustration, and the wound in Su Zhengliang's heart seemed to be torn open by an invisible sharp knife. At this moment, he just wanted to hide in a dark corner and lick the wound silently alone.
A deep wound bleeding with blood and tears.
After sending Lika to the car and leaving, Lin Xiluo turned sideways and said in a cold voice without any warmth, "Since you're here, let's go up and have a seat."
The two people walked into the elevator silently one after the other. In the slowly moving car, there were only two people standing side by side.
In this suffocating silence, Su Zhengliang glanced sideways at the perfect profile beside him, moved his lips, "Xi Luo, there are only two of us now, please tell me about you and Miss Murray.
I want to know the truth."
The wind like the dark night fell quietly from the dark eyes, and the corners of the heroic lips curved bitterly with an imperceptible arc.
For a moment, Lin Xiluo snorted softly, "What truth do you want to hear? Do you want to hear the love history between me and Lika, or..."
I originally thought that Lin Xiluo had some reason to hide himself, so he would put on a show in front of outsiders. Unexpectedly, in such a confined space, he still said embarrassing words without hesitation. Su Zhengliang only felt a
A nameless anger rushed straight to his forehead.
Squeezing his forehead tightly, Su Zhengliang interrupted coldly, "Lin Xiluo, you said you would love me no matter what you do. Even if the affair between you and Miss Murray spreads, I have always believed in you. But.
, why did you become a completely different person after just a few days? What happened to you? "
Linxiluo tightened his lips tightly and looked to one side without saying a word.
The beautiful melancholy eyes flickered slightly, and the clear and pleasant voice became calmer, "Xi Luo, I know that you must be hiding something from me to say such a thing. If you have something to hide, don't hide it.
, as your lover, I don’t want you to carry everything alone.”
While talking, the elevator door slowly opened. Lin Xiluo ignored Su Zhengliang's words and strode towards the president's office.
Walking in the high-level administrative area, Lin's employees who were coming and going stopped when they saw their boss, or nodded to him, or bowed slightly.
My boss seemed to be in a bad mood today, and almost turned a blind eye to the employees' salutes. His handsome and angular face was covered with mist, and his deep black eyes seemed to be covered with a thick layer of haze, making it difficult to fathom.
When they saw a gentle and elegant strange man with a slightly melancholy temperament following them, they seemed to understand a little bit.
Linsilo said to an executive walking by, "Tell others that no one is allowed to disturb me in any way until I come out!"
"Yes, President."
The door of the office was pushed open violently, and when Su Zhengliang walked in, it was slammed shut again. The dull echo startled several employees who passed by the door.
Witnessing the president's angry look, everyone kept their heads down and continued doing their own things. For a while, the entire high-level administrative area was extremely quiet.
Lin Xiluo strode to the floor-to-ceiling window, crossed his arms with his back to Su Zhengliang, and remained silent.
There was an eerie silence in the spacious and bright CEO's office.
Seeing Lin Xiluo who was so unusually silent, Su Zhengliang didn't know what he was thinking for a moment.
The man who was tender and affectionate, took great care of himself and cherished himself, the man who once vowed to face everything together. Now he is with another woman and has become so moody. Such Lin Xiluo makes Lin Xiluo...
He felt strange and scared.
Maybe he really had something he couldn't say. Maybe it was because of his father, or maybe he was forced to do this because of the pressure from society and public opinion.
Staring at the tall and unruly figure, Su Zhengliang slowly walked to his side and said, "Xi Luo, I know that you must be hiding something from me. Does your father disagree?"
Lin Xiluo looked out the window motionless, with a solemn expression.
Seeing the side of the other person's face tightening into a cold line, Su Zhengliang half-cast his eyes.
Sure enough, it was because of his father that he was like this.
After hesitating for a while, Su Zhengliang said softly, "Actually, when you went to the United States, your father came to see me. He said that you don't love me at all, and that you went to the United States just to discuss the engagement with Miss Murray."
Smiling self-deprecatingly, Su Zhengliang looked away sadly, his gentle voice revealing indescribable helplessness and sadness, "I know that the Lin family cannot accept a man like me being with you. The pressure from public opinion and the world is terrible.
, even if we persist, even if you are the president of the Lin family, you can't avoid it. Besides, the president of the Lin family must have a wife of comparable family status, and the Lin family must have an heir. I can't be so selfish.
, you cannot ignore the reputation and future of your Lin family just because of your own happiness. Therefore, if you have no choice but to marry Miss Murray because of your father's pressure, I will never blame you."
