【Invisible Scarecrow】22: How much is your love worth?
－－－－－－－
It's still raining heavily outside the car.
"You're going to kill her, stop the car!"
In the Mercedes-Benz that had already gone away, Shu Ran asked Shang Qingwen, who was driving, to stop. She must stop. Her voice woke up Mei Yangyang, who was so tired that she finally fell asleep in the back seat. She opened her eyes dimly.
He shouted, "Dad, Mom, what's wrong with you--"
A child's voice came, and Shu Ran suddenly realized that she shouldn't speak so loudly in front of her daughter, because Shang Qingwen has always put her first in everything these years, and he would first discuss with her and seek her opinion on anything he did.
At home, Shu Ran also upholds the image of her father as a majestic head of the family in front of her daughter. After so many years of marriage, the occasional small quarrels were passed by talking and laughing, and the number of times they spoke loudly like just now was almost non-existent.
And today, she obviously violated the family precautions that the two of them had first set, and loudly reprimanded her husband in front of her daughter!
Shang Qingwen stopped the car, glanced at his wife first, and then turned to look at his daughter who was sitting in the safety seat. He whispered that we should rest for a while and we would be home soon. After speaking, he turned to look at his wife.
, “Can we go home and talk?”
After Shu Ran shouted that sentence, she also felt that her mood was not right. It should have started when she saw Shang Qingwen taking Si Lan to Lin Xuejing's rented community, thinking that Si Lan had taken Cheng Jia away and caused her friends to be there.
She had been suffering for more than two hours outside the gate of Si's house. It was raining so heavily. Her heart was broken when she sat in the car looking at it. However, Shu Ran, who wanted to talk to her husband the most, found that her husband had brought Si Lan over.
, how can you not be angry?
There were two mother and son upstairs. She was taken away by Shang Qingwen. What if that man--
Yes, Si Lan is his good brother, and it is his duty to help his brother, but Xuejing is her good friend, and the friendship of more than ten years is not just a word. He had promised her before in the hospital that he would not get involved if she did not get involved.
Why did you bring Si Lan here now?
Shang Qingwen seemed to have noticed his wife's inner thoughts. He loosened his grip on the steering wheel and held his wife's hand. Shu Ran struggled to get away, but he was worried about his daughter sitting behind him, so he didn't dare to move.
She was too big. After struggling twice, she raised her eyes and glared at Shang Qingwen. Shang Qingwen glanced back. My daughter is still here. You should save some face for me. You can do whatever you want when you return to the bedroom.
!
Seeing that his wife was silent and her eyes showed no intention of softening, Shang Qingwen sighed and said in a low voice, "You should know Si Lan's way of doing things. If he expects any obstacles to what he wants to do, he will do it.
Once put aside in advance, just like this matter-"
Shu Ran was stunned. Shang Qingwen said this. Did Si Lan tell him in advance?
Shang Qingwen looked at his wife's doubtful eyes and nodded, "Yes, he said it in advance! He said -" Shang Qingwen paused and remembered the phone call Si Lan made to him two days ago.
"This is a family matter of the Si family and no outsiders need to interfere!"

Xingyu Community, the sixth floor where Lin Xuejing rented, as soon as she entered the door, she carried little Chengjia into the bathroom and helped him take off all the wet clothes on his body. In the car just now, Shu Ran asked her to put Chengjia
She took off her clothes and wiped the water off her body with a small blanket, but Chengjia refused and refused to say anything. Lin Xuejing also knew that because Mei Yangyang was sitting next to her, the child kept wet with water out of guilt.
She stared at Chengjia, trying to make Chengjia feel soft in this way, but Meiyangyang also didn't know that it was because of her look that Xiao Chengjia refused to take off her clothes in the car!
Lin Xuejing put water in the bathtub, adjusted the water temperature and was about to give her son a bath. Chengjia shook his head at his mother. He was still wrapped in a big towel and his cheeks turned red. Did his mother forget that he was three years old?
When he was young, he didn’t want her to give him a bath!
Seeing her son's awkward movements, Lin Xuejing suddenly remembered that what she was doing at this time was a bit redundant. Chengjia had taken a bath by herself when she was very young. She didn't need to worry about such small things in life. She looked at her son's rosy little face.
Face, Lin Xuejing was a little dumbfounded, she quickly exited the bathroom, closed the door gently, and whispered: "Then wash it yourself, and tell your mother when you're done!"
Lin Xuejing closed the bathroom door, but she stood there without moving, leaning against the bathroom door and covering her mouth with her hand. How does it feel to be lucky after the disaster? After experiencing heart-breaking suffering and endless pain,
Swimming finally touched the edge of the land and had a down-to-earth sense of reality, but this sense of reality made her heartache and uncomfortable!
She shouldn't have brought Chengjia back to the country, and she shouldn't have come back!
what to do?
Take your kids and go as far as possible!
Lin Xuejing's first thought at this moment was to take Chengjia away. She ran straight to the bedroom and started looking for her passport and credit card. She stopped when she heard movement in the living room. Just now Shu Ran told her that she would be there soon.
He came up and asked her to leave the door open for her, but she didn't lock the door.
Lin Xuejing randomly threw some valuable things into her suitcase, got up and walked to the living room, wanting to discuss with Shu Ran whether she could lend her some money first. She basically had no savings in these years.
All the money she had earned through hard work in the UK was spent on——- Lin Xuejing couldn't help but feel pain in her heart when she thought of these things. She bit her lip to force herself not to think about the past and strode to the living room.
"Of course, I want-"
Before Lin Xuejing could say anything, she was so frightened by the person who appeared in front of her that she froze in place with her eyes wide open, keeping her posture of taking one step forward and one step back before he came up.
Why is he here?
There was only a circle of lights turned on in the living room, and the light was not particularly dazzling. The man standing in the living room looked around and slowly turned around when he heard the footsteps. The inherent sense of oppression made Lin Xuejing, who was about to approach, tremble.
Stepping back, his tall figure in the small living room made the whole living room seem extra crowded. His clothes seemed out of place with the decoration here. His usual black and white cool colors made the temperature in the room suddenly rise.
It dropped a few degrees, especially when he slowly turned around and looked over with a silent expression.
The nail marks on his face are still there, and some of his skin is red because he scratched it too deeply, and his forehead is still a little blue, but this still does not affect his cold temperament at all, and the look in his eyes is worse than in the afternoon
It's going to get colder.
"What are you doing here?" Lin Xuejing found that the door to the living room had been closed, and there was no one else in the room except him and little Chengjia in the bathroom!
Her vigilance was immediately aroused when she saw the man standing in the living room, and her mind was rumbling. At this time, there was only one thought screaming in her heart, screaming crazily, not to let him have the opportunity to get close again.
Chengjia, we can’t let him take Chengjia away again!
The man standing in the living room looked at the woman who was retreating from him step by step. The panic in his eyes was the explosion of being pushed to the limit. Her eyes made him clearly feel what she was thinking at this time. She looked at her.
He is like a snake, a scorpion, a ferocious beast, a demon who wants to eat people!
The pair of red eyes suddenly reminded him of a certain early summer campus. When he passed by, the focus of the pair of clear eyes focused on him with admiration. This gaze had followed him many years ago.
Comparing the scene at this moment, the former is full of admiration and admiration, while the latter is full of fear and uneasiness at a distance.
He had seen too many looks like this on him, and he was both respectful and afraid. He had become numb to the feeling a long time ago. He simply ignored these looks. However, at this time, he was attracted by
The look in her eyes made her pupils shrink.
Originally, there should always be some accidents in life, encountering some unexpected things and meeting some unexpected people, but--
Si Lan's eyes deepened, and he focused his gaze lightly, making a shallow mark on his thin lips. His voice was flat without any emotion, and also had a hint of inhuman coldness.
.
"I'll pick him up!"
Pick him up? Pick him up--
Lin Xuejing had not yet changed out of her wet clothes. She backed up until her back was against the bathroom door, her hands spread out against the door frame, like a little beast defending its lair, blocking the place with her thin body, trying to get in.
Unless she's dead!
Without saying a word, she pressed her body against the door of the bathroom, using actions to show that she would not let go, not even to the death, and faced off against the man standing in the living room.
"I can give him the best medical conditions, the best education, and the most generous living environment. Can you do this?"
The man's low words struck Lin Xuejing's heart word by word. This is the cruelest reality of life. These are what she wants to give her son the most, but she can't give it!
"What can you give him?"
"I can give him love, I love him, I love him more than my life!" Lin Xuejing grabbed her chest and cried loudly to the man standing opposite her, for this sudden appearance in her life again
The man, after a night of violent storm, seemed to have sprinkled a lot of salt on Ling Chi's body. She was about to collapse in pain, and shouted uncontrollably, "You are rich and great, your money is nothing but
Meeting these material conditions and building layers of ivory towers, what else can you buy? Can you buy family ties, can you buy friendship, can you buy love?"
The standing man's body paused slightly, but the corners of his mouth moved quietly. It seemed that he just smiled sarcastically in response to Lin Xuejing's heartbreaking words. When he looked at the woman in front of him again, his pupils turned to the woman in front of him.
Locked in, approaching step by step, the tall figure formed a huge shadow. When Lin Xuejing was forced to lean against the door and unable to move, he reached out and grabbed her chin, lowered his head slowly, and pressed.
The scent of his perfume invaded the air forcefully. His fingertips were so strong that he clasped her trembling lips, raised her pale face condescendingly, and uttered each word in a faint voice.
, "So, tell me, how much is your love worth?"
