Chapter 104 The New House
Because the house is not decorated, there is only a low-wattage light bulb installed on the roof, and it can barely see when it is turned on.

Meng Xiao was a little hungry, and wanted to get up to buy something to eat, only to realize that she didn't even take her mobile phone.

But she really didn't want to go back to see Yang Yi, so she had to sit back where she was.

There was a dull knock on the door, very rhythmic, in groups of three.

There are two families on this floor, both of which are rough houses with no occupants, probably knocking on the wrong door, Meng Xiao got up and saw an unexpected face through the cat's eyes.

He was wearing a well-fitting black suit, and the glasses on his face covered his eyes, leaving only the corners of his lips stretched into a cold arc.

Xie Li stood outside the door with a lunch box.

When she opened the door, she shook the lunch box in her hand and said with a smile, "I don't think you have eaten anything, here, dinner."

His tone was doting, like a little girlfriend who was throwing a temper tantrum, but Meng Xiao felt a chill down his spine, feeling that his throat was tightly stuck by him.

"Mr. Xie, why are you here?" His glasses reflected white light, and he smiled maliciously like a gentle scum.

"I came with you." Xie Li didn't hide anything, and said, "Seeing that you haven't come out for so long, I figured out the time to give you warmth."

He didn't feel unfamiliar at all, and took a step in front of her, Meng Xiao dodged subconsciously, Xie Li just walked into the room grandly, and even closed the door softly.

The house was not renovated, and Xie Li didn't plan to change shoes, so he took out a pair of slippers from the bag and gave them to Meng Xiao, saying, "Concrete floors are not suitable for bare feet, change a pair of slippers."

After entering the house, Meng Xiao was barefoot. One of the heels of the pair of high-heeled shoes priced at W was scrapped, so she had to walk barefoot inside.

The slippers are made of very bright plastic, with an ugly Hello Kitty printed on them in fluorescent pink. The printing quality is poor, and Hello Kitty's eyes and nose are misplaced.

The quality is not good and there is a smell of plastic, you can smell it without bending over.

To find such low slippers in Haishi, Meng Xiao lamented Xie Li's magical powers.

But this is not the time to be picky. She has walked too much in high heels, and all the blisters on her feet have burst, and several bleedings have solidified and stained her feet. Compared with slippers, her feet are more terrifying.

"Thank you, I will transfer the money to you tomorrow." Meng Xiao put on her shoes and thanked her.

"Okay, 12 yuan." Xie Li didn't refuse, and said with a smile: "However, you have to agree to my friend request first."

"Mr. Xie, about WeChat..." As soon as he mentioned WeChat, she remembered the news he had told her. Meng Xiao still couldn't figure out what Xie Li meant.

"Thank you, I said it, it's a thank you." This thank you is not a thank you gift. Xie Li brought over the lunch box, which contained six tempting steamed buns, which seemed to be bought from a small shop nearby. .

"...?" Meng Xiao didn't understand.

"You little girl...you are so lovable to the bottom of your heart. But you are not experienced enough to run away from home alone. Don't be self-willed if you don't bring a dime with you. It's dangerous to run around outside at night." Xie Li thinks she is cute and cute , reaching out to touch the top of her head, but Meng Xiao dodged it.

"Mr. Xie, you respect yourself."

His actions are too casual, not offensive and frivolous, and always make her feel that they have known each other for several years, but Meng Xiao is sure that she does not know Xie Li, if she knows someone of this status, she will not be poor and helpless.

"I have a husband, and you too... are going to marry your fiancée soon." Next month will be his and Zhao Jingyan's wedding, and Meng Xiao has received their invitation.

"I don't know what you are thinking about approaching me, but I want you to consider your identity and don't embarrass each other."

Thinking about what he said about following her all the time, Meng Xiao felt suffocated, but she didn't realize it.

The combination of Xie Li and Zhao Jingyan is not so dreamy.

The siblings are almost five years apart. Xie Li was born as the son-in-law of Chenglong Kuai of the Zhao family. He borrowed the power of Zhao Jingyan's family to get his current status.

There was a big incident in the Zhao family 20 years ago. Zhao Jingyan is well-known for being jealous of men playing around. Even if it is a joke, she can't make it in front of her. Therefore, Xie Li should take Zhao Jingyan into consideration and not mess around.

"Husband? Yang Yi? But you can't handle him. Are you sure you are a husband and wife and are in a passive relationship?" Xie Li was not annoyed, and didn't mention his marriage to Zhao Jingyan at all, and said with a smile: "He didn't even tell you What happened yesterday, as long as you listen to him and be an obedient Mrs. Yang."

He was talking about Wu Yue, and Meng Xiao knew it.

"That's also about our husband and wife, and has nothing to do with you, an outsider." Meng Xiao was not interested in talking to him.

"Since it's a matter of husband and wife, why did you use your own savings to compensate Wu Yue? What do you mean by not coming home so late?" Xie Li picked up a bun and took a bite. The gravy inside is hot and delicious.

"Xiaoxiao, are you willing to live like this for the rest of your life? Being pointed and scolded by others, but your husband won't vent your anger on you?"

"What's none of your business? Mr. Xie, it seems like you've gone too far with your words. You've crossed the line." Being older than her doesn't mean he has the right to speak out about her. They have nothing to do with each other, let alone his turn to point her out here. marriage.

"Of course it's none of my business." After Xie Li finished eating the buns in his hand, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe off the oil stains on it, unbuttoned his suit, and took out a piece of paper from his inside pocket to Meng Xiao, saying: "Long time no see, little sister."

……

This was an accident many years ago. The father took his son to go fishing. The son ran into the river for fun and drowned. The father also jumped in to save his son. Both father and son drowned.

Fortunately, a female worker passing by nearby acted bravely and jumped down to save her son, who only survived.

When I went down to save my father, the female staff didn't come up either.

At that time, her youngest daughter was sitting on the back seat of her bicycle, eating a lollipop, waiting for her mother to come home with her.

"At that time, you ate lychee-flavored lollipops. I remember it very clearly." Xie Li recalled that he was 12 years old at that time and remembered more things than her.

In Meng Xiao's hand is the old newspaper that commended the award for righteousness and bravery that year, which was cut out by Xie Li and preserved very well.

"Are you...?" Meng Xiao wasn't sure, and asked, "That man's son?"

After all these years, when her mother's matter was brought up again, there was no disturbance in her heart, but she was somewhat surprised by the "benefactor" in front of her.

Xie Li nodded: "I didn't intend to disturb you, but fate made us meet in this situation."

She's married, and he's about to get married.

Meng Xiao understands this a bit better, and she is not some brainless mental retardation. Even if Xie Li has the heart to repay, she will not follow the rotten stalk like Yang Yi that "there is no repayment for saving a life, only a promise with your body".

Meng Xiao is not worthy of Xie Li's status.

He said he didn't want to disturb her, but it could only mean that he already knew who she was, and it was most likely because he didn't like her status as a poor student before, and he kept hiding it because he was afraid that she would repay her favor.

"Then what do you want to do now?" There is nothing to be courteous about, either adultery or robbery.

"The little girl is smart, but she's just too simple." Xie Li praised: "You were forced to go back to your "natal family" only two days after you married into a wealthy family. Status. Just as I need money, you need someone to give you advice."

For example, today, he sent a wechat to ask her to release Wu Yue's voice, and told her to go to see Wu Yue no matter what, and not to question Wu Yue about pushing her by the stairs.

Meng Xiao followed suit, but the effect was minimal.

"First of all, I didn't receive the result I wanted, and Wu Yue is still very proud. Secondly, I don't have any money, and the Yang family only gave me Yang Yi's salary card. That money is not worth your effort to find me." Thank you Li's identity is sensitive, and money and power cannot be balanced. She understands what he means and doesn't believe the reason for looking for her.

"More importantly, there is love between me and my husband, which is not what you think." Meng Xiao emphasized that she and Yang Yi had feelings, and they went around a lot. If they came to her in such a secret, it must not be confession So simple.

On behalf of the Zhao family, he wanted to stir up feelings between Yang Yi and her, and his purpose was not pure.

"Just take it as my life-saving kindness back then, Meng Xiao, you won't hurt you if you listen to me." Meng Xiao was too stubborn, and Xie Li sighed: "The Yang family is united. You just went, and the Yang family kept their words light. The plan for now is If you have your own foundation, you will raise your head and be a man in the future.”

"Think about the words you were insulted, think about how those people laughed at you behind your back, and think about the difference between other people's husbands and Yang Yi." Xie Li continued to provoke Meng Xiao, saying: "Meng Xiao, we are the same Kind of people."

money, power.

In the first half of his life, Meng Xiao was suffering under the control of money, and just after getting better, he was oppressed by power to survive.

The moment Yang Yi appeared at her house, she vowed not to let these two things choke her throat again, and she had nowhere to survive.
