Stand-In Boyfriend Fu Zheng Ji

Chapter 478 Step by Step
At this time, Zhang Ling also glanced at Li Xiang's mobile phone.

I saw the caller was Muzi.

I guess Muzi probably has some urgent matter that he wants to ask Li Xiang to solve.

It is also because she and Muzi are good sisters.

So she temporarily stopped urging Li Xiang to take care of Li Xi.

Li Xiang seemed a little helpless and quickly answered Mu Zi's call.

Li Xiang was a little worried that Muzi didn't know that Zhang Ling was by her side.

It would be bad if I said something that would arouse Zhang Ling's suspicion.

So he gestured that he wanted to go aside to answer the phone.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Ling called out to Li Xiang and said "Stop".

Li Xiang stopped and asked in a puzzled manner, "What's wrong?"

Zhang Ling stared at Li Xiang suspiciously and said:
"Where do you want to go? Answer the phone right in front of me."

Li Xiang said "but" with a little embarrassment and hesitation.

Zhang Ling felt that Li Xiang had a problem and continued to question:

"Hmm! Is there something shameful going on between you and Muzi that you're afraid I'd know? That's why you wanted to avoid me when answering the phone."

Chen Jian, who had been following Li Xiang, heard Zhang Ling's question.

He suddenly realized that something must have happened between Li Xiang and Muzi, which he absolutely would not allow.

So he also shouted "Li Xiang" out of suspicion.

Li Xiang looked back and forth several times at the aggressive expressions of the two men.

Only then did he come to his senses and said "no" several times with a look of grievance on his face.

Finally, his eyes fell on Zhang Ling and he said with a stiff face:
"Okay! Okay, stop imagining. I'll answer Mu Zi's call right in front of you to prove my innocence, okay?"

The voice just fell.

Li Xiang's slightly hesitant fingers finally slid across the screen and answered Mu Zi's call.

At the moment of connection.

He took the initiative to point out the fact that Zhang Ling was right beside him.

He also took the opportunity to ask Muzi why he called him?

If Zhang Ling had thought about Li Xiang's intention.

You will definitely notice that he is trying to hide something.

But now!

On the one hand, Zhang Ling is the same as Chen Jian.

From the moment Li Xiang answered the phone.

Based on their previous understanding of Li Xiang, they chose to completely let down their guard.

It is believed that the fact that Li Xiang dared to answer the phone in person proves that he has a clear conscience.

On the other hand, when Zhang Ling's gaze accidentally touched Qi Diaozhe.

She just wanted to use Li Xiang's power to drive away the annoying Qi Diaozhe.

He subconsciously completely ignored Li Xiang's wording.

She even deliberately hugged Li Xiang as intimately as possible and leaned on his shoulder in front of Qi Diaozhe.

One is proactive.

One is passive.

This is in stark contrast to the scene where Qi Diaozhe just forcibly hugged Zhang Ling.

In addition, public opinion around them generally favored Zhang Ling and Li Xiang.

As a result, Qi Diaozhe looked unhappy and kept breathing heavily.

He looked a bit like a cowardly child who watched his favorite toy being snatched away, but was powerless to do anything and could only sulk.

Cowardly character!

It seems to be used very accurately here.

Because Qi Diaozhe looks glamorous and powerful on the surface.

But the soul that lives in that body is a coward.

That's why Qi Diaozhe went against the oath between him and Zhang Ling and disappeared for many years.

Even his Qidiao family has been declining year after year.

He didn't think of looking for a solution from within the family.

Instead, he was cowardly and only wanted to use external forces borrowed through evil conspiracies and tricks to revitalize his family.

That's why he was able to form a strategic alliance with Shangguan Aoxue and even Li Xi.

This is what they call birds of a feather flock together.

Stay!
Li Xiang obtained the latest instructions from the real Li Xiang on how to handle today's affairs.

He hung up Muzi's call in a good mood.

Then he looked at Zhang Ling beside him and said with a smile:
"I guess you heard it too! Muzi doesn't have anything important to do."

"Ok!"

"Let's go! Then the most important thing next is that I will help you solve this big trouble of Li Xi."

After saying that, Li Xiang took Zhang Ling's hand and walked into the office building.

The aura they exuded made Li Xi, who was not far away, tremble.

Wang Li, who was standing next to Li Xi, saw this.

He expressed concern and asked Li Xi "what's wrong".

Li Xi knew that her reaction just now was embarrassing in front of Wang Li.

So in order to save some face.

He glared at Wang Li angrily and scolded:

"Useless! Just mind your own business. Stop worrying about things that don't exist."

waste?

Wang Li couldn't help but retort in her heart.

These two words must be referring to you, Li Xi.

Look at how you looked when you saw Zhang Ling and Li Xiang walking in together.

It felt like a mouse trembling at the sight of a cat.

Well, it is true that the word "waste" is quite appropriate to describe you!

Wang Li's psychological activities.

There is a bit of the shadow of Ah Q in Lu Xun's works.

But she is not an Ah Q in the real sense.

But just like.

Although Wang Li strongly resisted Li Xi in her heart.

But on the surface, she did so because Li Xi was the most doted granddaughter of the old patriarch of the Li family.

Finally, I compromised and forced myself to show a flattering and fearful smile and responded:
"Yes, yes, yes! You are right. I was worrying too much. I... I know I was wrong. Don't worry! I promise that something like this will never happen again."

Li Xi looked at Wang Li's appearance.

Her angry face relaxed a little.

At the same time, she thought of the old patriarch's care and the reminders of her think tank.

When Li Xiang was about to approach.

She forced herself to be respectful and took the initiative to step forward and greet Li Xiang.

Then he said to Zhang Ling with a reluctant smile:
"Li Xi is here to greet the clan leader's wife."

Li Xi's reaction surprised Bie Shanliu and other colleagues who were watching the show.

No, look at Li Xi’s aggressive look before.

The situation that was bound to end with a fight after meeting Zhang Ling was ruined.

So colleagues who were afraid of being late for clocking in started to leave one after another.

I didn't have time to enjoy Li Xi's greeting.

However, Zhang Ling saw a smile on Li Xi's face that made her uneasy.

She blinked to confirm whether she saw it wrongly.

Not confirmed yet.

Li Xi couldn't hold back his temper and said:

"Brother clan leader, what are you talking about? Li Xike never thought of coming to my sister-in-law's workplace so early in the morning to make trouble. He just came here to greet my sister-in-law at the request of the clan leader. If you don't believe me, you can ask Wang Li if this is the case."

These high-sounding words almost made Wang Li, who was standing by, dazed and unable to react.

If Li Xi hadn’t waited for Wang Li’s response.

He reached out and shook Wang Li's body to urge her to speak quickly.

Wang Li then told Li Xiang that she was indeed present when the old patriarch gave instructions to Li Xi.

In Li Xi's opinion, a lie is a lie once it is approved and acknowledged by a second person.

Then even the most absurd statements will have some credibility.

So Wang Li's remarks gave Li Xi confidence to some extent.

That is, enough confidence to believe that the lie is the truth.

After all, a lie that is told by someone who doesn't even have enough confidence in the lie he tells.

Then how could she convince others to believe this lie?

Then Wang Li said excitedly, eager to prove herself:

"See? I have witnesses to prove it. I'm not lying."

To be honest, Zhang Ling and Li Xiang were not very interested in arguing with Li Xi about whether she was lying.

Because they all firmly believed that even if the old patriarch had given such instructions.

With Li Xi's long-standing hostility towards Zhang Ling.

It is absolutely impossible for them to listen to the old patriarch obediently.

He would not wait to run over to greet Zhang Ling early in the morning.

So they would rather believe that Li Xi's arrival definitely has ulterior motives.

really!

When Li Xi saw her excuse, Zhang Ling and Li Xiang became suspicious.

She was trying to find excuses for herself and muttered:
"You don't believe it, do you? Besides, I don't expect you to believe it."

Think of this.

Li Xi then went straight to the point and said:

"Brother Clan Leader, I followed the Clan Leader's arrangement. In addition to coming to pay respects to my sister-in-law, I also have a task that I need to confirm with my sister-in-law."

Zhang Ling and Li Xiang heard this and asked in unison:
"Confirm what?"

When they heard each other's tacit answers.

Their eyes met subconsciously.

Just a second.

It was like a couple who had known each other for a long time meeting for the first time.

He looked away quickly, somewhat shyly.

Just in time.

Some onlookers exclaimed with envy that their performance just now was too sweet.

Li Xi naturally sneered at such an exclamation.

I couldn't help but think darkly:

"Are you showing off your affection? (sneered twice), go ahead and show off. Now you must seize every opportunity to enjoy the few sweet moments. Later I will let you fully experience the despair of falling into the abyss."

When she saw Zhang Ling and the other two's curious eyes were focused on her.

So she immediately put on an air of a eunuch announcing an imperial decree and looked at Zhang Jie Ling and said:

"This is what happened. The old patriarch heard it from an elder in the family."

Zhang Ling asked:
"what?"

"He said that he had seen his sister-in-law behaving in an ambiguous manner with other young men other than the clan leader's brother more than once."

"Oh, there is such a thing! How come I didn't know about it?" Zhang Ling looked at Li Xiang and asked, "Li Xiang, do you know about it?"

Li Xiang naturally stood on Zhang Ling's side unconditionally and shook his head to deny it.

And Li Xi seemed to have expected all this.

He just smiled and looked at Li Xiang and continued:
"He also said that my sister-in-law's actions were a disgrace to the Li family. He also teamed up with several respected Li family elders to put pressure on the old and new clan leaders. He demanded that the clan leader brother must break up with my sister-in-law. Clan leader brother, don't tell me that you don't know about this yet."

Zhang Ling stared at Li Xiang as if he was a liar.

Li Xiang was slightly stunned and quickly turned to look at Zhang Ling and explained:

"Yes, it happened! No, Zhang Ling, listen to my explanation. It happened last night. It was already late at night, and I was afraid that it would disturb your rest, so I didn't have time to tell you."

Zhang Ling looked at Li Xiang with a somewhat relieved smile and said:
"Why are you so nervous? It's not like I didn't say anything."

Li Xiang admitted that he would become completely confused whenever he was involved in Zhang Ling's affairs.

So his reaction just now caused some onlookers to laugh.

He wanted to maintain the face of the real Li Xiang at all times.

So he tried to defend himself but was interrupted by Li Xi as soon as he said the word "I".

Li Xi then showed that he was very considerate of Zhang Ling and said:
"Sister-in-law, whether you are willing to believe me or not, I still want to tell you one thing."

"Ok?"

"Not only Brother Clan Leader, in fact, because of our many years of friendship as classmates, I also believe in you. That's why I asked Grandpa Clan Leader to personally find you to confirm. I hope to hear the negative words from your mouth in person."

Is Li Xi really that kind?
No.

You have to know that the so-called elder of the Li family provided relevant video and photos as irrefutable evidence.

As long as Zhang Ling dares to deny it in public.

Without hesitation, she threw all the photos at Zhang Ling's face.

OMG!

Just thinking about the relevant scenes can make Li Xi extremely excited.

Little did he know that Zhang Ling had already seen through Li Xi's evil thoughts.

Without panicking at all, he admitted the accusations made by Li Xi.

She even told her about the intimate hug that Qi Diaozhe had just given her outside the office building.

And he said fearlessly in front of Li Xiang:

"Li Xi, what should we do? It's such an unfortunate coincidence! Your elder brother, the clan leader, also happened to see me and Qi Diaozhe hugging. How about you quickly let your elder brother, the clan leader, separate from me now?"

Li Xi happily followed Zhang Ling's instructions and turned to look at Li Xiang and was about to speak.

unexpectedly!

Li Xiang took the lead in expressing his views to Zhang Ling:

"What are you talking about? Ling'er, it's so hurtful to say that! Stop talking. You know I've already expressed my attitude to you."

Zhang Ling glanced at Li Xi and pretended to be ignorant before asking:

"Oh, what's your attitude?"

Li Xiang wanted to show his importance.

Before answering this question.

After tidying up his appearance, he looked at Zhang Ling and said solemnly:
"I chose to pursue you in the beginning. Even if you abandon me in the future, I will never leave you and will never change..."

Li Xiang had not yet finished speaking.

Many women watching the show around listened to Li Xiang's passionate expression.

As a result, those who were envious exclaimed in unison.

Zhang Ling's face was filled with a happy smile.

He looked at Li Xi proudly.

As if provoking Li Xi, he said:

"See. Not only is your provocation useless, but it also makes you eat a lot of dog food for no reason."

But Zhang Ling didn't expect this.

Li Xi has never been a cunning person.

But today, he acted very calm and confident despite her provocation.

It clearly felt like what Li Xi had just said was just an appetizer.

Then Li Xi prepared to serve the main course.

suddenly!

A bad feeling came over Zhang Ling again.

There is no time to adjust your mindset and prepare for the coming storm.

Li Xi, contrary to his usual behavior, took Zhang Ling's arm and then said in an intimate manner:
"Oh, sister-in-law, you have misunderstood me, haven't you? I in the Li family have always supported you and the clan leader being together happily..."

Li Xi did not expect Zhang Ling and Li Xiang to believe what he said.

The main purpose was to perform for Zhang Ling's colleagues.

Apparently!

Li Xi's performance is effective.

Many of the colleagues who were watching the show enviously praised the Li family as the largest family in Wuchuan.

No matter when and where, people in the tribe can always show a beautiful picture of loving each other.

Li Xi was secretly delighted when she heard the public opinions in her favor.

She thought that Zhang Ling would definitely let down her guard because of her kindness.

Even though Zhang Ling still remained wary.

Under the pressure of public opinion, she will surely fall step by step into the trap that she carefully prepared for Zhang Ling.
