Stand-In Boyfriend Fu Zheng Ji

Who on earth disclosed to Chen Jian that Zhang Ling took the initiative to discuss cooperation?

The number of people who know about this matter can be counted by the top leaders, and Li Xiang probably already has a guess.

Shangguan Aoxue bears the brunt and is the biggest suspect.

But in fact, Li Xiang didn't know that the real manipulator of this matter was Li Xi.

Including letting Zhang Ling meet Wang Li accurately while driving.

But what Wang Li saw with her own eyes was a fact that her husband had a blind date with another woman under the control of her mother.

The direct reason why Li Xi did this was to prevent Li Xiang from bringing Zhang Ling to the family sacrificial meeting.

Because Li Xi was fortunate to hear that the elders of the family who loved her the most were discussing with Li Xiang to take care of all the properties of the Li family.

This decision will be officially announced and handed over at the family sacrificial meeting.

But the prerequisite for this decision is that Li Xiang can marry Zhang Ling.

This is why when sending invitations to Li Xiang, he specifically emphasized that he should bring his girlfriend there.

This is absolutely unacceptable to Li Xi, who has been coveting the Li family's property for a long time.

So it is very important to encourage Shangguan Aoxue to meet Zhang Ling again.

Zhang Ling came to XX Hotel in advance as required.

She was led by a waiter to a place by the window.

Looking at the scenery of water and sky outside the window is really refreshing.

In particular, the boats floating slowly on the lake have a unique style.

"Li Xiang, you really know how to enjoy it. You even picked a place like this. I like it." She smiled and said to herself.

Shangguan Aoxue happened to appear beside Zhang Ling, and also looked at the scenery outside the window with a smile and said:

"Do you like it? I can find such a good place, thanks to Li Xiang who brought me here for my birthday last time. Since then, I have fallen in love with this place deeply. I will come here to enjoy the scenery outside the window from time to time."

Zhang Ling listened to the words that were enough to arouse people's infinite reverie, turned her head and tried her best to maintain a calm look at Shangguan Aoxue.

But her heart has already kneaded Li Xiang tens of thousands of times as a decompression artifact.

"Where's Li Xiang?" She didn't answer Shangguan Aoxue's question.

Although Shangguan Aoxue didn't hear what she wanted to hear, she keenly noticed that the moment Zhang Ling turned her head, there was a hint of jealousy in her eyes.

Since the first confrontation between the teahouse and Zhang Ling last time, Shangguan Aoxue's heart was bursting with joy again and again.

She is confident that she, Shangguan Aoxue, will be the biggest winner in this confrontation.

Zhang Ling saw that Shangguan Aoxue did not speak, but smiled at her slightly, with a sense of pride in the smile, and sat in front of her.

Gracefully picked up a piece of green snack on the table, and said with a serious gesture of appreciating treasures:

"This mung bean cake is a major feature of their hotel. It is said that it is purely handmade. It uses mung beans imported from Australia, olive oil imported from Spain, and selected high-quality sucrose. It tastes sweet but not greasy in the mouth. It has an endless aftertaste. Would you like it? Try it first?"

"Where's Mr. Li? I'm here to talk about work, not to eat, drink and have fun." Zhang Ling continued to ask persistently.

"I really don't understand! A person who only knows how to work but doesn't know how to enjoy life, still wants to keep a man's heart?" Shangguan Aoxue shook his head with disdain while speaking, and put the mung bean cake in his hand to his mouth side, took a small bite gracefully.

"What do you mean?"

Zhang Ling heard the strong hostility in Shangguan Aoxue's words.

She originally suspected that Shangguan Aoxue was a temporary representative appointed by Li Xiang.

It seemed that she was the one who looked up to Shangguan Aoxue in the end.

This so-called secretary is probably just a pleasing vase that Li Xiang keeps by his side.

Yes, Zhang Ling thought so.

Because there was a hint of jealousy and crisis in her heart.

She comforted herself by thinking that she was the most capable and connotative woman.

If she were a man, she would choose a woman like her.

Shangguan Aoxue swallowed the food in her mouth with enjoyment, looked at Zhang Ling with a little sympathy and said:
"I heard that you once had a first love called Qi Diao Zhe. This name sounds good, but it's a bit too extreme! I've been hanging on you for many years, and I haven't heard from you at all."

Qi Diaozhe, she almost forgot this name.

A happy smile flashed across her face when she mentioned it again.

Then her face became gloomy because of Shangguan Aoxue's last words.

She realized that this meeting was probably a scam, so she stood up and said at the same time:
"It seems that Li will never come. Then..."

How could Shangguan Aoxue let Zhang Ling leave easily?

Immediately spoke to stop:
"Vice President Zhang, you have to figure it out, but your group is in a hurry to seek cooperation. You are leaving now, don't you seem too insincere?"

Sure enough, since ancient times, the king of Hades has been fond of little ghosts.

Shangguan Aoxue's actions felt a bit deliberately difficult.

If it wasn't for the task of being the general manager of the group, she really wanted to turn around and leave immediately in order to save her breath.

But she can't now!

"Is Li always coming?"

Zhang Ling looked at the document in her hand and asked again.

Shangguan Aoxue smiled slightly, picked up the unfinished dessert on the plate and said:
"Sit first. This snack is really good. You really don't plan to take a bite and leave?"

Once again, she didn't get a clear answer from Shangguan Aoxue. This feeling of being ignored one after another made Zhang Ling really annoyed.

I was so annoyed that I forgot to call myself, or send a message to directly ask Li Xiang.

Zhang Ling suppressed the anger in her heart, and sat down again with a little helplessness.

She didn't have lunch, and just happened to be a little hungry, so she took a piece casually, held it in her hand and looked at it.

The pastry is really finely made, and there is a fragrance of mung beans near the mouth, especially the exquisite texture on it, if it is really hand-painted, it can be called a work of art.

After taking a bite and chewing a few times, with a look of disgust on his face, he put the remaining pastry on the empty plate in front of him.

Seeing these reactions from Zhang Ling, Shangguan Aoxue said with some doubts in her pride:
"Why doesn't it suit your taste? It's normal. After all, I'm used to living a life without quality..."

"No!" Zhang Ling interrupted.

Interrupting and refuting in person, Shangguan Aoxue's face was full of anger.

For Shangguan Aoxue, only Li Xiang treated her like this.

Because Li Xiang is the goal she has been pursuing, she has a great tolerance for Li Xiang's interruption and refutation.

But what is Zhang Ling?
It was just a trick to trick Li Xiang's bitch away.

Today, she, Shangguan Aoxue, is determined to tear Zhang Ling's ugly face.

"Oh, it seems that Dr. Zhang must have some amazing theory? Can you tell me and share it with me."

Even though Shangguan Aoxue tried her best to pretend, she could still hear a bit of gnashing of teeth.

Zhang Ling smiled slightly and said, "Since Secretary Shangguan asked sincerely, I will tell you mercifully. Remember I only said it once."

"You..." Shangguan Aoxue really wanted to abandon Gaoya and scold others at this time, but she still couldn't help but put on a smile, "Speak, I'm listening."

Looking at Shangguan Aoxue's reaction, Zhang Ling couldn't help but feel amused. This woman still didn't seem to have made much progress since leaving the teahouse.

Natural pride will always be the background of Shangguan, and the frivolous city government cannot support his pride.

In the end, his self-righteous pride always becomes a laughing stock in the eyes of others.

It's like the best drawing paper made with the ultimate craftsmanship, and finally let a child who doesn't know anything draw a naive picture scroll.

What a waste of such a good drawing paper!
She watched Shangguan Aoxue eating the pastry in a pretentiously elegant sip.

Since you like to pretend to be elegant in front of her so much, she will do the opposite and respond with the vulgarity in your eyes.

In short, you, Shangguan Aoxue, always like to come here to make Zhang Ling feel uncomfortable, so she won't make it easy for you.

Zhang Ling solemnly picked up the cake she put down, admired it thoughtfully for a while and said:
"This is your so-called quality life! Will it be different from domestic ingredients if it is eaten in the stomach and finally discharged?"

"You..." Shangguan Aoxue looked disgusted and disgusted, "How can you talk like that while others are eating? It's so vulgar!"

Shangguan Aoxue was completely out of mood and continued to taste pastries.

"But I didn't mention the place you were thinking about! I think you're overthinking vulgarly. Why did you think of that place when you have nothing to do?" Zhang Ling said with some grievances.

But seeing Shangguan Aoxue suppressing her anger and trying her best to maintain a reaction that she thought was elegant, her heart was still full of joy.

"You...too lazy to argue with you." Shangguan Aoxue said disdainfully.

Zhang Ling went on to say: "Listening to the words of Secretary Shangguan, I think you agree that after being eaten by people, it will eventually belong to the same form."

Shangguan Aoxue retched and put down a small half of the pastry in his hand and said:
"Can you stop saying that?"

Zhang Ling felt that it was almost time to nod and continued:
"The so-called quality of life is not an attribute of the food itself. It is imposed on the food by some self-righteous experts. For example, the exquisite texture on this piece of pastry."

"Textures? That's right! I think this pattern looks very beautiful, and it makes people very appetizing!"

Shangguan Aoxue looked at the delicate texture of the pastry in her hand with admiring eyes and said.

"Exquisite lines and appetite can be equated? What kind of logic is this!" Zhang Ling retorted with disdain.

"Otherwise? It's been like this since ancient times!"

Shangguan Aoxue proudly thought that what she said was the truth!

"I don't know, Miss Shangguan, do you know the real truth. Some words are absurd, but if everyone says a lot, it is easy to be regarded as the truth by some brainless people."

"What do you mean?"

Shangguan Aoxue vaguely sensed that Zhang Ling was scolding her.

But she really couldn't figure out why she was scolded again?
Zhang Ling smiled lightly and said:

"The gemstone earrings on your ears are beautifully patterned. They must be made by a master in the jewelry industry."

"That's right! This is the gift he gave me when I met Li Xiang for the first time."

Shangguan Aoxue's sense of crisis grew stronger.

She said that in order to use the woman's jealousy to try to change the current topic.

Zhang Ling frowned slightly when she heard it and said:
"Then why don't you take such a beautiful thing to satisfy your hunger?"

"what?"

Shangguan Aoxue was startled by Zhang Ling's question.

First, he was surprised by Zhang Ling's nonsensical question;
Second, I was surprised that Zhang Ling didn't change the topic because of jealousy.

But what Shangguan Aoxue didn't know was that Zhang Ling was thinking about why Li Xiang gave Shangguan Aoxue such beautiful earrings in her mind at this time?

She, Zhang Ling, has never received any decent gifts from Li Xiang.

Now, like Li Xiang, she subconsciously rubbed her chin with one hand and said:
"Okay. I know you may be reluctant. But I see that the tableware, vases, tablecloths and other patterns on the table in front of me are also very beautiful. You can eat these with confidence."

In Zhang Ling's speech, she deliberately emphasized the word "vase" in a differentiated tone.

It seems to be deliberately implying that Shangguan Aoxue is a beautiful vase.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Shangguan Aoxue glanced at what Zhang Ling said and said angrily.

Zhang Ling said calmly:
"No. I just expanded it reasonably according to your thinking mode of equating exquisite lines with appetite. Why do you also feel that you were talking nonsense just now?"

Shangguan Aoxue suddenly realized that she had fallen into Zhang Ling's verbal trap again.

Embarrassed cheeks flushed red at this time.

The main purpose of coming this time is to use women's natural jealousy and suspicion to make Zhang Ling feel a strong hatred for Li Xiang.

But why inexplicably discussing the texture of pastry following Zhang Ling's rhythm?
No, she can no longer follow Zhang Ling's rhythm.

She forcibly restrained her anger and let herself put on an elegant smile.

"Okay. Maybe you're right. But don't you wonder why Li Xiang hasn't come yet?"

Zhang Ling said solemnly:
"If you don't tell me, it's useless for me to be curious."

Shangguan Aoxue smiled and took out an invitation letter from the bag she carried with her and put it in front of Zhang Ling.

Zhang Ling glanced at the invitation letter with a bit of indifference and said:
"What is this? It can't be that you are getting married and plan to invite me to your wedding. However, we don't seem to be familiar enough to attend each other's wedding."

"It's really not that familiar!"

Shangguan Aoxue was gnashing her teeth, thinking that she would have been with Li Xiang a long time ago if it wasn't for your meddling.

However, if she and Li Xiangzhen get married, she will definitely invite you, Zhang Ling, in Li Xiang's name.

Showing off to Zhang Ling that she, Shangguan Aoxue, is the ultimate winner.

Of course, these are based on the fact that Zhang Ling can be driven away from Li Xiang today.

"That's it. You'd better take it back. I'm not interested in attending your wedding." Zhang Ling said.

Shangguan Aoxue didn't take Zhang Ling's words to heart and insisted:
"Don't worry, it's not mine. This is an invitation letter sent to Li Xiang by the priest of Li Xiang's family."

"Why let me watch this?"

Zhang Ling still didn't open the invitation letter and said.

Shangguan Aoxue said impatiently:
"Why? You can see the content of the invitation letter yourself. I don't have the right to answer your questions all the time."

Zhang Ling looked at Shangguan Aoxue and showed a meaningful smile.

This smile made Shangguan Aoxue feel slighted.

"What are you laughing at?" Shangguan Aoxue asked after being emotionally moved by Zhang Ling.

Zhang Ling didn't speak, and reached out to pick up the invitation letter in front of her, but her heart felt inexplicably uneasy at this moment.

This is an invitation letter with a normal format.

It's just that the meaning of the bold font in the last line made Zhang Ling even more restless.

A reminder that Li Xiang must bring his spouse or girlfriend to go.

"How long has Li Xiang received the invitation letter?" Zhang Ling asked subconsciously.

Upon hearing the long-awaited question, Shangguan Aoxue put on a proud smile again and said:

"Well, let me think about it. The time when Li Xiang received it was probably when Li Xi was arrested, and the company inexplicably ushered in the day of debt collection."

"That day!" Zhang Ling recalled what happened that day.

At the same time, she realized that Li Xiang had received this invitation letter for so long.

But why had he never mentioned it to her?

So in Li Xiang's opinion, she is not his girlfriend anymore.

Seeing that Zhang Ling fell into a state of self-doubt, Shangguan Aoxue felt that the heat was not enough, so she decided to add more fire and said:

"Oh, that's right. At that time, you Zhang Ling was also a member of the debt collector, right? You didn't know that because of your appearance, Li Xiang was confused for a long time..."
