Stand-In Boyfriend Fu Zheng Ji

Chapter 458 Pick Up the Children
Zhang Ling is not a truly unreasonable person.

Beating can help you vent some negative emotions in your heart.

Only then did she regain her senses.

I feel that my behavior just now was indeed a bit excessive.

But there is still some stubbornness and pride in her heart.

Not willing to admit mistakes easily.

Besides, Yan Yuan had reminded her before.

There is a science to quarreling between lovers.

Whoever apologizes first means no matter how right they are.

You will also naturally be half a head shorter.

Even if you know you are wrong.

She couldn't be the first to admit her mistake.

So Zhang Ling said to Li Xiang angrily:

"Have you hugged me enough? Let go!"

Li Xiang had no intention of letting go.

Instead, the hug became stronger and he said stubbornly:

"No."

The current space is reverberating with sound.

Zhang Ling raised her foot and stepped hard on Li Xiang's instep.

She was ready.

Endure Li Xiang's screams of pain in my ears.

But time passed by minute by minute.

Not to mention the screaming sounds.

There wasn't even a slight groan from enduring the pain.

This made her a little confused and she thought she had stepped in the wrong place.

So Zhang Ling lowered her head and confirmed again that her foot was indeed on Li Xiang's instep.

Then he looked back at Li Xiang's face and asked doubtfully:
"Hey, Li Xiang, wasn't it your foot that I stepped on?"

Li Xiang nodded calmly and replied:

"My feet."

Zhang Ling then asked:

"Since it was your foot. I stepped on your foot but you didn't make any sound of pain. Don't you feel any pain?"

While speaking, she once again stepped on Li Xiang's instep and rolled it back and forth a few times.

Not to mention making even the faintest sound of pain.

Zhang Ling couldn't see any sign of pain in Li Xiang's expression.

Not even the slightest unnatural twitch of the facial muscles as he endured the pain was seen.

It feels like Li Xiang’s feet are like prosthetic limbs without feeling.

But Li Xiang smiled and said:
"It hurts! But when I regard this pain as your strong love for me, I can no longer feel any pain. Instead, I can feel infinite happiness."

Zhang Ling muttered almost subconsciously after hearing this:
"Isn't Li Xiang a perverted masochist? That's why he regards the unfair abuse of others as a kind of happiness."

Li Xiang seemed to have heard Zhang Ling's mumbling just now and said:

"Yes, you heard it right! I do feel infinite happiness. And I am very sure that the source of this happiness comes from you."

Most women would feel uncomfortable after hearing what Li Xiang said.

Maybe you will be moved to death.

You may even forget your last name.

But in Zhang Ling's opinion, Li Xiang's current condition is definitely sick.

And he was still very ill.

That's why I asked with some concern:

"Hey, Li Xiang, are you okay? Your condition doesn't look optimistic. I think it's very necessary for you to go see a doctor with me."

Do not misunderstand!
She was just showing routine concern because Li Xiang was her child's father.

It’s definitely not because she is attracted to Zhang Ling or Li Xiang.

This is Zhang Ling's inner interpretation of her own behavior at this moment.

That's right!

Even if she had already completed the engagement ceremony with Li Xiang.

I haven't completely accepted Li Xiang from the bottom of my heart.

Even if it's just letting things take their own course towards Li Xiang.

She would also pull out the little bean without hesitation to hide her true feelings.

Sometimes she really doesn't know what she is worrying about?
Maybe they are worried that Li Xiang will become the second Qi Diaozhe.

That's why he was so cautious and didn't want to get hurt in any way.

now.

Li Xiang almost subconsciously explained, "I'm not sick."

Zhang Ling heard Li Xiang's answer.

He unconsciously revealed a meaningful smile.

It felt like the smug feeling she had after seeing Li Xiang fall into the trap she had set.

She then said as naturally as possible:

"If you are ill, you have to treat it. Don't be embarrassed to deny it. It would be bad if this minor problem turns into a major one."

Li Xiang once again put on a very serious attitude and emphasized:
"I'm really not sick."

Zhang Ling sneered and said:

"Okay, have you ever heard of a sick person actively admitting to others that he is sick? No. No, I can accompany you to see a doctor for a checkup first."

Li Xiang because of Zhang Ling's words.

He had a vague feeling of uneasiness in his heart.

That is, she was worried that Zhang Ling would use this as an excuse to deliberately send her to a mental hospital.

The purpose was to prevent Li Xiang from hindering her from looking for Xiaodouzi.

But this idea was discarded within a few seconds.

That’s because Zhang Ling doesn’t have the ability.

There is no need for this.

You know, for Zhang Ling, even if she has to solve the troubles coming from him.

I believe there must be many simple and efficient ways.

For example, making a request directly.

So there was no need to go through the trouble of sending Li Xiang to the mental hospital.

If she isn't careful, it might end up not being worth it and make Xiaodouzi hate her.

despite this!

Li Xiang still didn't understand the meaning of Zhang Ling's words just now.

So I asked with a puzzled look on my face:

"What do you mean?"

Zhang Ling explained:
"What can I mean? I just want you to accompany me to find the principal to pick up Xiaodouzi. I've already told you before. You wouldn't have forgotten it so quickly."

Li Xiang's face darkened.

I thought that after going around in circles, we have come back to this issue.

It seems that he can't avoid this problem today.

How to do?
Otherwise, he should just speak the truth directly.

All of this was originally Xiaodouzi's intention.

Do not!
He saw that Zhang Ling had maintained a cold and serious expression when she spoke just now.

It would definitely not be wise to tell the truth at this moment.

If he wasn't careful, Zhang Ling would think he was despicable enough to put all the blame on a child.

However, Zhang Ling looked at Li Xiang with a conflicted look and did not react.

So she said anxiously:

"Hey, Li Xiang, I've figured it out. You men are always colder than the ice on the river in spring. I still had a little fantasy about you."

After hearing this, Li Xiang finally couldn't help but want to explain.

But as soon as he opened his mouth to say "Zhang Ling, let me explain," he was interrupted by the word "Okay."

Zhang Ling then waved her hand and said:
"If you don't want to call and ask where the principal is for me? That's fine. I won't force you. I'll go to Xiaodouzi's school and ask him myself."

The words fell.

Li Xiang has not yet responded to Zhang Ling's words.

Zhang Ling had already walked quickly to the door of the room.

Just as Zhang Ling put her hand on the handle to open the door.

Li Xiang shouted "Wait a minute".

Zhang Ling opened the door and turned back to look at Li Xiang and asked:
"If you have something to say, just tell me now! I'm in a hurry to find Xiaodouzi."

Li Xiang quickly chased after him and said:
"Zhang Ling, the security here at night is not optimistic. Why don't you stay in the room and wait. I'll go out and look for her."

This is the best way he can think of at the moment.

A man went out pretending to look for Xiaodouzi for a while.

At that time, no matter what reason he uses to explain to Zhang Ling, it will seem natural.

Zhang Ling seemed to see through his little thoughts and shook her head and said:

"Do you think those bad guys can hurt me? To tell you the truth, it's absolutely impossible."

Li Xiang knew that Zhang Ling would not agree.

She had also experienced Zhang Ling's abilities, so she knew that Zhang Ling was not bragging.

Then he said with a firm look:
"Zhang Ling, you really can't go."

Zhang Ling asked "Why".

Li Xiang explained:
“I’m just asking if you understand the social rules of this country?”

Zhang Ling shook her head subconsciously and said:

"Is this place different from our Wuchuan?"

Li Xiang nodded and said:
"It's very different. Just like the customs I just mentioned to you. And I know you are very skilled. But you don't understand the laws of this country. What if..."

Zhang Ling thought that what Li Xiang said were just excuses.

If this place is really a dangerous place full of tigers and wolves as Li wanted to express.

Then she would never allow Xiaodouzi to be left here alone to go to school.

So she didn't want to listen to Li Xiang's nagging excuses anymore.

So he said unhappily:
"Stop talking! I just want to pick up Xiaodouzi. But why are you talking to me so much?"

Li Xiang explained with some affection:

"Don't be like that. I'm just worried about you. This worry is no different from worrying about Xiaodouzi."

However, Zhang Ling did not show any sign of being moved by these words.

She thought Li Xiang was deliberately wasting her time.

This also proves that Li Xiang must be feeling guilty and hiding something from him.

So she laughed a little creepy and asked:
"Li Xiang, do you think I will believe what you just said?"

Li Xiang said doubtfully:

"Why don't you believe it? Everything I said is true."

Zhang Ling said:
"If you were serious, you would have gone with me without hesitation when I first mentioned picking up Xiaodouzi. But the fact is that you have been trying to stop me from wasting time here."

Li Xiang was speechless for a moment because of Zhang Ling's words.

at this time.

Zhang Ling felt that Li Xiang would no longer stop her from picking up Xiaodouzi.

Just when I was about to leave.

suddenly!

She felt one of her hands being grabbed again.

She turned around angrily and was about to curse.

Li Xiang said quickly:
"Zhang Ling, don't get excited yet and listen to my last two words."

Zhang Ling temporarily suppressed the anger in her heart and uttered the word "say".

Li Xiang then spoke up and reminded:

"Zhang Ling, I really want to take you with me to pick him up. But I can't! Think about it. What if we all leave and the principal happens to send Xiao Douzi over? What should we do?"

Zhang Ling said hesitantly:

"This……"

She really didn't consider this situation in her haste.

Li Xiang saw that his words had worked.

So he tried harder and spoke from the bottom of his heart:

"To be honest, I'm worried about leaving Xiaodouzi alone in the room waiting for us. Are you worried?"

Zhang Ling shook her head without saying anything.

Li Xiang took the opportunity to pull Zhang Ling back into the room.

Then he walked out quickly and closed the door.

Li Xiang's fluent movements left Zhang Ling stunned for a moment.

When I heard Li Xiang's caring voice through the door.

Only then did she react.

Zhang Ling really wanted to chase after him.

But Li Xiang's reminder just now echoed in her ears again.

That's right!

She was also worried about leaving Xiaodouzi alone in the hotel room.

So she had no choice but to follow Li Xiang's arrangements.

Stay and wait for Xiaodouzi to be brought over by the principal.

Although her intuition told her that the probability was small.

But it concerns Xiaodouzi's safety.

Zhang Ling didn't dare to take the risk of not staying in the hotel room.

She couldn't help but start complaining a few words.

Why shouldn't she stay?

The person who should stay the most is Li Xiang.

of course!

Zhang Ling is not stupid.

After complaining a few words, I remembered what Li Xiang had just said.

Li Xiang was concerned about her as a woman.

Words that would be dangerous to appear on the streets of a foreign country late at night.

So she was worried that a smile of relief from Li Xiang would appear on Xiaodouzi's face.

Li Xiang finally ran out of the room as he wished.

It’s just that the temperature difference between day and night here is too big.

I shivered as I stepped out of the hotel door.

The thought of hiding back in the hotel flashed through my mind.

But he quickly put the idea aside.

Because the person staying in the room is Zhang Ling!
In addition, Qi Diaozhe and Mr. Ma are also staying in the hotel.

What if either of these two people tells Zhang Ling about his whereabouts?

Then he will most likely become the second Qi Diaozhe.

never mind!

In order to make the scene of welcoming Xiaodouzi more realistic.

Li Xiang could only endure the cold and resolutely rushed out of the hotel.

……

really!

Li Xiang was not wrong.

Qi Diaozhe and Mr. Ma both saw him leave the hotel.

The two people appeared at the door of Zhang Ling's room together as if they had discussed it beforehand.

The two of them stared at each other for a while as if they were playing statues.

Qi Diaozhe was the first to lose his temper and said:
"Mr. Ma, I heard earlier that you were sleepy and wanted to catch up on some sleep. Why are you here now?"

Mr. Ma pretended to be surprised and said:
"Master Qi, you have a good memory!"

Qi Diaozhe thought Mr. Ma was praising him.

He smiled with pride and said:

"Of course! In our carving business, a good memory is also an important consideration."

Mr. Ma sneered and glared at him and said:

"Then I'm a little puzzled! Master Qi has such a good memory. Why didn't he take the initiative to contact Zhang Ling during the more than ten years he was abroad? Don't tell me you forgot!"

Qi Diaozhe glanced at Zhang Ling's door with obvious panic.

A feeling of worry welled up in my heart, as if Zhang Ling was standing at the door listening to their conversation.

Mr. Ma saw how nervous Qi Diaozhe looked.

There was a hint of provocation in his smile as he said:

"Oh, I see. People like Master Qi often do things with a strong purpose. He didn't contact her before because he thought Zhang Ling wasn't worth it. Now he's contacting her again, so naturally he feels..."

Mr. Ma's words obviously touched Qi Diaozhe's heart.

So he couldn't hold back his temper and scolded:
"Shut up! Mr. Ma, you are not me. Why do you stand here and slander me at will? If you do this again, I will have no choice but to notify my lawyer to protect my rights."

The voice just fell.

The sound of Zhang Ling's door lock being turned was heard.

The door was opened.

Zhang Ling took the lead and stared at Qi Diaozhe for a while.

I noticed that Qi Diaozhe had an obvious guilty look on his face, as if the truth had been exposed.

He avoided her gaze and forced himself to put on a smile as he explained:
"Zhang, Zhang Ling, don't listen to Mr. Ma's nonsense. I, I... I have never thought about it as he said. This is true! Please believe me."

Zhang Ling looked at Qi Diaozhe's disgusting face and said angrily:
"I don't care what you say to each other. But this is the door to my room. If you want to chat and talk about your feelings, the noise will disturb me. Can you please go somewhere else?"

Qi Diaozhe, on the other hand, shamelessly stepped into the door and said:

"That's fine! This is really not the place to talk. After all, we are old classmates. Let's go inside..."

Never thought about it!
Qi Diaozhe miscalculated.

Zhang Ling didn't care that Qi Diaozhe had already stuffed his feet in.

First he slammed the door hard.

The door pinched Qi Diaozhe hard.

Qi Diaozhe felt the pain and subconsciously retracted his foot.

Zhang Ling didn't care about Qi Diaozhe's injuries at all?

She then closed the door firmly and said:
"Mr. Ma, I'm sorry! I'm the only woman in the room. It's really inconvenient to let outsiders in..."
