Only then did Zhang Ling realize that she seemed to have been tricked.
She pursed her lips unhappily like a child, quickly came to him and said:
"Okay! Li Xiang, you..."
Li Xiang didn't give Zhang Ling a chance to accuse him.
He deliberately interrupted her expression and said with a smile:
"Wait a minute! Zhang Ling, this is wrong!"
"What's wrong with me?"
"Why didn't you object when I called you that before?"
Zhang Ling found an excuse for herself and said:
"I, I didn't react at all."
There was a happy smile on her face when she said this.
Li Xiang seemed to see that she was not really looking for trouble.
So he boldly shook his head in denial and said:
"No, no, no, you didn't react. I think you are used to being the wife of the new patriarch of the Li family."
Zhang Ling denied with a bit of stubbornness and excitement:
"nonsense!"
Because she did realize a little bit that she was what Li wanted to say.
It seems that she is really used to being the wife of the patriarch of the Li family;
Accustomed to the honor that comes with being the wife of a clan leader;
I am used to being protected and pampered by Li Xiang all the time.
But now they have broken up.
She just doesn't want to admit it in front of her ex.
Li Xiang looked at her with a bit of doting in his eyes and said:
"Okay! Don't worry so much. I'm so hungry now! I just want to go somewhere quickly and sit down to eat. Aren't you hungry?"
As he spoke, he specifically glanced at Zhang Ling, who was leading the way back.
Zhang Ling immediately acted like a patriarch’s wife and said to the waiter:
"Xiao Lin, how far away is the exclusive dining place for the clan leader you mentioned? If it's too far away, you can go to a similar place nearby. We're not picky!"
Zhang Ling was reminded by Li Xiang.
She began to feel uncomfortable because of her hunger.
So I wanted to find a place to sit down and have a meal.
Li wanted to see Zhang Ling's expression to the waiter.
He looked at Zhang Ling with a meaningful smile and said:
"Madam is right! As the leader of the clan, I have never been so particular in front of Madam. Xiao Lin, just choose a more elegant place nearby."
The waiter Xiao Lin looked a little flattered and said:
"Chief, madam, there are only a few steps left."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at a piece of bluestone not far away that was as tall as a person and continued:
"Look, after passing the bluestone at the corner ahead, it's about fifty steps away."
Zhang Ling's rough calculation showed that it was less than a hundred steps.
In the end, I decided to grit my teeth and persevere.
Li Xiang did not forget to face Zhang Ling in front of the waiter. He quickly walked up to Zhang Ling, leaned over and turned his back to her and said jokingly:
"Madam, if you can't walk anymore, come on, get on my back, and I'll carry you."
Zhang Ling stood next to Li Xiang, with a bit of girlish shyness, raised her hand and pushed him aside and said:
"Why are you so annoying today? I don't want to talk to you anymore. Go away!"
Li Xiang pretended to be a mischievous child and cried to Zhang Ling about his grievances.
Said that he really just felt sorry for her.
It's a bit heartless to accuse her.
Not only was he unappreciative, but he also deliberately spoke harshly to me.
It is even more exaggerated to say that he is the modern version of Dou E's injustice.
Zhang Ling was made such a fuss by Li Xiang!
I want to find a crack in the ground big enough to escape immediately.
However, she still had to bite the bullet and coax Li Xiang like a child.
Take the initiative to admit that she just said the wrong thing to him.
And sincerely asked Li Xiang to forgive her for her recklessness.
Oh my god!
How is this going?
She clearly remembered what Yan Yuan said.
Love stories between men and women today.
No matter how the love story develops?
It's always the man's fault.
But in the current situation, she took the initiative to apologize.
She was going crazy inside!
Xiao Lin, the waiter on the side, couldn't help but smile when he saw this scene.
I personally think the relationship between the patriarch and his wife is really sweet.
Xiao Lin suddenly felt that those who said Shangguan Aoxue would replace Zhang Ling were jealous lies.
Who said that only Shangguan Aoxue is the most worthy of the new clan leader?
Xiao Lin looked at the Zhang Ling in front of him who was obviously more worthy of the clan leader than Shangguan Aoxue!
By the time they were all seated.
Xiao Lin respectfully served tea first according to the old rules.
While they were drinking tea leisurely, Xiao Lin said to them from the bottom of his heart:
"Madam, the sweetness between you is so enviable! I am curious about where you met? I will go there next time."
Xiao Lin thinks he can find true love!
It must have a lot to do with the environment in which we meet.
So I also want to try my luck like Zhang Ling.
Maybe she can meet her destiny.
now!
Zhang Ling felt very embarrassed when she heard Madam's name.
I just wanted to correct Xiao Lin.
At this time, Li Xi and Shangguan Aoxue appeared in her sight.
She took back the words she had just spoken.
"Sister-in-law is here! I heard that someone bumped into you. Look at these ignorant idiots. I will teach them a lesson for you when I have time."
I really don’t understand if Li Xi is really stupid?
What he said obviously meant that there was no three hundred taels of silver in this place.
Even if Li Xi doesn't speak.
Just appearing here would make Zhang Ling think she was related to those staff members.
Shangguan Aoxue on the side continued:
"Hey, I've heard for a long time that Li Xi and Zhang Ling had a close friendship as sisters when they were in high school. It turns out that these rumors are true. This friendship looks really enviable."
Zhang Ling was a little confused!
Two women suddenly appeared and sang together.
I know the two of them are performing.
But she hasn't figured out the purpose of their performance yet.
Li Xiangxuan saw through the tricks of these two women.
He couldn't bear to let Zhang Ling suffer a loss in a daze.
So he leaned into her ear and reminded:
"Remember, you should never make excuses for irrelevant people just because my surname is Li. Just be yourself."
The reason why Li Xiang spoke like this was.
On the one hand, Li Xiang really doesn't have much affection for the Li family.
Especially the Li Xi in front of me.
He could see that Zhen Li wanted to hate her to the core of his being.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! On the other hand, Li wants to imply that although her surname is Li, she has no relationship with Li Xi (or even everyone in the Li family).
The most important point is that Li Xiang was calculated to sign the contract to join the consortium on behalf of Zhen Li Xiang last time.
Zhen Li wanted to give him the latest instructions.
That is to try not to torment the Li family like a clan leader.
Today I finally encountered the best opportunity.
Zhang Ling nodded mechanically at Li Xiang.
It was a response that showed that she understood the meaning of his words.
Then she looked at Shangguan Aoxue with a gloomy face and said:
"It seems that the rumor that Miss Shangguan has been willing to be Li Xi's slave since she was a child is true. My God, Miss Shangguan's friendship for Li Xi is really great!"
If she wants to take the lie that Zhang Ling and sisters Li Xi are deeply in love as fact.
Then she must also admit that she is Li Xi's slave.
Zhang Ling believed that Shangguan Aoxue, who always thought highly of herself, would never admit it.
Shangguan Aoxue looked excited and was about to refute.
Shangguan Aoxue immediately quieted down with just a glance from Li Xi.
And for the first time, she put down her pride and dignity in front of Zhang Ling.
He behaves like Li Xi's slave.
He frankly admitted to Zhang Ling:
"You're right!"
"Well?"
Zhang Ling did not react to Shangguan Aoxue's change for a while.
Shangguan Aoxue continued:
"However, I still want to thank you for your appreciation. You even used the word 'great'. I'm afraid only greatness can be used to describe our friendship."
Needless to say she was bragging!
She boasted that she had sacrificed too much for the revival of the Shangguan family.
Therefore, only the word "great" can be worthy of her efforts.
Li Xi was very satisfied and said "not bad" several times.
One is to praise Shangguan Aoxue’s general knowledge;
The second is that he is happy that he has taken on a slave for no reason;
Third, Li Xi felt that their goal had been achieved.
It turns out that someone is not far away and is observing everything happening here.
That person is the person in charge of investigating the Kunlun Mountain Master case.
Li Xiruo couldn't handle it well.
Then she will most likely be sent back to prison.
At that time, even if the old patriarch comes forward, he will have no mercy at all.
It's just that Li Xi was lucky enough to know that the person in charge stopped thinking about food and tea after just a quick glance at Zhang Ling last time.
(Note: This refers to when I came to eat with Qi Diaozhe.)
Even if Li Xi has informed the person in charge that Zhang Ling’s famous flower has an owner.
The person in charge still expressed without any scruples that he wanted to further contact Zhang Ling.
And Li Xi seemed to have grasped a rare life-saving straw.
She solemnly told the person in charge that she and Zhang Ling were good sisters when they were students.
I am willing to help the person in charge introduce me to Zhang Ling.
The person in charge acted very responsibly on the spot.
As long as Li Xi helps him successfully introduce him.
Then Li Xi's involvement in that case can be erased.
This is definitely a great thing for Li Xi.
But because of the Master Kunlun Mountain case, she has always been like a stinky mouse that dare not see the sun.
I can only hide quietly in a dark corner where there are no outsiders.
In addition, Li Xi heard about her recently married husband.
Without her restraint, Li Xi would go around messing around unscrupulously.
So Li Xi urgently needs the official responsible person to get her out of the Kunlun Mountain Master case.
From now on, I can live openly and openly in the sunshine.
And the reason why Shangguan Aoxue lowered her status and was willing to help Li Xi.
I just want to use Li Xi as a springboard to further gain the favor of the old patriarch, so that the Li family and the Shangguan family can cooperate in depth in business.
Then there is really hope for the revival of the Shangguan family.
They just had a conversation with Li Xi.
It can make the person in charge indirectly think that Li Xizhen is deeply in love with sisters Zhang Ling.
Maybe Li Xi thinks the time is ripe.
He made a come-out gesture towards the person in charge.
The person in charge walked over with a smile as if meeting old classmates.
He stood next to Li Xi very naturally.
Those squinting eyes completely ignored the presence of Li Xiang.
Staring at Zhang Ling openly.
Li Xi on the side knew that Li Xiang would not give her any thin noodles now.
She was extremely worried that Li Xiang's rage would disrupt her plan.
She quickly reminded the person in charge with a sense of fear in her tone.
No matter what she said at first.
Including mentioning that Zhang Ling is Li Xiang’s unmarried wife.
The people in charge were indifferent.
Until she mentioned that the person in charge looked at Zhang Ling so rudely.
Zhang Ling was probably so angry that she never wanted to see the person in charge again.
The person in charge then withdrew his obsessed eyes with some reluctance.
She said "Sorry" to Zhang Ling with a somewhat ashamed tone.
Shangguan Aoxue greeted him with a smile and said:
"Everyone, don't stand here. Come over here, sit down and chat slowly."
This is Li Xiang's exclusive dining table as the clan leader.
In front of Li Xiang, Shangguan Aoxue really regarded herself as the patriarch's wife, making the decision for Zhang Ling to entertain uninvited guests.
What Zhang Ling did when she faced Shangguan Aoxue.
There was just a hint of displeasure on her face.
Then, he looked meaningfully at Li Xiang aside.
As if silently saying to Li:
"You didn't want to admit it at the beginning. Look, Shangguan Aoxue has already been eager to take over the position of my patriarch's wife."
Li imagined receiving Zhang Ling's silent accusation against him.
He said sharply and unceremoniously:
"Everyone, stop here! Shangguan Aoxue, do you have the right to speak here? Please remember that your surname is Shangguan. This is the property of my Li family. You, an outsider, cannot make the decision."
At this moment, Shangguan Aoxue looked ugly.
Every word Li Xiang said was like a poisonous thorn piercing her heart.
The spread and erosion of the venom caused her trauma and pain, which made her even more miserable.
If an average woman encounters this situation.
I wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl in right away.
But Shangguan Aoxue is no ordinary woman.
I saw her shamelessly walking a few steps quickly, standing next to Li Xiang, putting on a bit of a charming attitude, gently holding Li Xiang's arm, and saying with a bit of whining and sobbing:
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Brother Xiang, you and I made an oath to each other in front of the memorial tablets of the ancestors of your Li family. Have you forgotten all of this?"
Shangguan Aoxue based her previous understanding of Li Xiang.
I thought Li Xiang must be cooperating because of what she said.
That's why she took the initiative to lean into his ear and pray to Li Xiang.
She said that she only needed to cooperate with her in front of the person in charge.
She promised that she would never mention the ancestral mountain alliance vows in front of anyone again.
Shangguan Aoxue's words may be useful to Zhen Li.
But Li Xiang could not tolerate anyone insulting Zhang Ling in front of him.
He hadn't waited for Shangguan Aoxue to finish whispering.
Without any mercy, she shook off the hand holding his arm.
This action almost brought Shangguan Aoxue to the ground.
Shangguan Aoxue is definitely smart.
The person in charge obviously looked at Shangguan Aoxue and was about to stand firm.
In the blink of an eye, Shangguan Aoxue was lying on the ground moaning in pain.
At first glance, the person in charge definitely eats meat!
I temporarily forgot my obsession with Zhang Ling.
She walked quickly to Shangguan Aoxue's side with an air of compassion.
While smiling and helping Shangguan Aoxue stand up with a greedy hand, he also did not forget to accuse Li Xiang of being a man who doesn't understand amorous feelings.
Zhang Ling saw that Shangguan Aoxue was taken advantage of by the person in charge.
There was not a single word or deed of resistance.
Is this still the Shangguan Aoxue who always thinks highly of himself?
Until the moment she saw Shangguan Aoxue getting up, a look of extreme disgust appeared on her face.
It is indeed Shangguan Aoxue who is dedicated to reviving the family.
She couldn't help but feel a little sorry for this woman.
No, she is wrong!
There was another person at the scene who was feeling sorry for this woman.
Perhaps it was the kindness in Li Xiang's bones that prompted him to subconsciously take a small step to save Shangguan Aoxue.
It's just that Li Xiang was worried about Zhang Ling, who had been watching all this.
So I quickly took that small step back.
At this time, Li Xi leaned into Zhang Ling's ear and whispered:
"Sister-in-law, you saw it. In fact, my brother-in-law still likes Shangguan Aoxue in his heart. I know you just broke up last night. Now you should be so heartbroken and let go completely."
What?
Li Xi actually found out about their breakup just last night.
This news was like a bolt from the blue, temporarily making her head dizzy.
If it weren't for Li Xi pretending to be friendly and supporting him.
Zhang Ling might have fallen to the ground.
This action was disguised by Li Xi.
Once again, the person in charge was convinced that the close relationship between Li Xi and Zhang Ling was true.
