Let her be arrogant

Chapter 168 Extra: When You Were Young ()

"But I can't have this pony."

Sheng Lanqing rolled her eyes and asked softly: "But, can you teach me to ride a horse?"

Xi Yu was slightly startled, then smiled and agreed after a moment: "Okay."

The hours passed by in a blink of an eye, as if my legs had grown longer.

As soon as Xi Yu got home, he received a call from Xie Si.

Xie Si laughed wildly, as if he had caught his fox by the tail, and said proudly: "I heard from Fu Yunyi today that you took a woman to ride a horse and taught her step by step."

"In order to let her experience it more personally, you even rode with her. In the end, you even gave her a pony, the one that can be sold for one or two million."

"She has no place to raise her, so you have to work hard and raise horses for her on your property."

Xi Yu walked into the study, turned on the desk lamp, and said coldly: "Why do you talk so much nonsense?"

He originally wanted to hang up the phone, but hesitated and asked, "You usually like to go out, do you have any recommendations for a place suitable for girls?"

Xie Si's voice became more excited and asked: "Which one are you talking about? If she is not deeply involved in the world, you will take her to see all the prosperity of the world, then simply take her shopping and various luxurious places, Let her feel the shock of money.”

Xi Yu thought of Sheng Lanqing's overly cautious appearance. Even when he wanted to take her to dinner, she was worried that she would not be able to repay his favor and was unwilling to do so.

Later, she finally couldn't resist him and was forced to go to the restaurant, but it seemed like he was being tortured, and even her smile was suppressed.

He flatly refused: "This is too vulgar."

"That's the connection. She must have an ideal in life. Even if she likes jewelry and fashion, you can find designers in this field. Then take her to experience a different life and give her the greatest sensory stimulation."

Xie Si planned for him very seriously and continued: "And you are the only one who is by her side. She will only count these good times on you, and she can't live without you."

Xi Yu heard a hint of subtlety and couldn't help but said: "Why should I make her unable to leave me?"

It was a bit too much to tie her to him in this soft way.

"I will leave her sooner or later. Wouldn't this be cruel to her?"

He can't stay by Sheng Lanqing's side all the time, right? What's the point?
abnormal? Neuropathy? Polite confinement?

Xie Si smiled even more happily and said matter-of-factly: "Then just don't leave her? No matter how bad your situation is now, you won't be able to support a woman, right?"

"I don't have this intention."

Xi Yu's face turned cold and said, "Don't come up with random ideas, let alone spread rumors everywhere."

"The current situation and rumors are just romantic to men. To her, they can only be hurt and rumors."

"Besides, she has someone she likes."

Xi Yu briefly told Xie Si what happened last night, and finally came to the conclusion: "There is really nothing between me and her. At most, we can be considered friends, but they are still quite distant friends."

Xie Si was amused by his hidden words. On the other side of the phone, he laughed and shrugged his shoulders.

He was laughing so hard, he was really going to die laughing.

"Yes, there is nothing between me and her, we are just friends."

Xie Si said with a rippling tone.

"Yes, yes, you and her were innocent before. At most, you could give her one or two million to teach her how to ride a horse and make her happy. They are just friends." He had laughed enough and assessed Xi Yu's patience. When he reached his limit, he said: "How much older are you than her?"

Xi Yu replied without hesitation: "About eight years old, there is a big gap."

Xie Si almost laughed again, but after enduring it again and again, he managed to become a little more serious and continued to guide: "Isn't it obvious? The man she likes is more than eight years older than her."

"And that poem. Now, even if the little girl doesn't want to get involved in love, she's not not interested at all."

"Besides, the essence of this poem is not the scene description at the front, but the 'young man on the road' at the back. How could she not remember the second half of the sentence?"

"Do you have to have her say clearly, 'Xi Yu, I love you so much' before you would believe it?"

Xi Yu was speechless for a moment.

He carefully recalled his past interactions with Sheng Lanqing, and couldn't help but doubt Sheng Lanqing's vision.

In front of her, he didn't tell the truth about his family and work, and seemed to be homeless and frivolous.

What does she like about him?
"You must have made a wrong judgment. She can't possibly like me."

Xi Yu said quite firmly, but a smile appeared in his eyes unconsciously.

It's for Xie Si's possibly true judgment that "she likes you."

Xie Si thought for a while and said, "Let's do this. You call her and pretend to care about her, but in fact you are trying to find out the real information about that man."

"Since she likes it so much, she can't even have a photo. If there is really no real and reliable information, then she can be considered to be lying."

Xi Yu raised his eyes and caught a glimpse of the Western-style wall clock on the opposite wall, ticking.

The number of books in the huge bookcase was so oppressive that it made his chest hurt and made him breathless.

He said calmly: "I know this, what's the use?"

"Whether she likes me or not, what does it have to do with me?"

In the afternoon, he was bombarded with a series of messages from people in the Xi family, few of which were not insulting.

People like him can barely live a glorious life now, but they may not be able to survive in the future.

He has not yet been able to assist the police in catching all the evildoers on the run.

No matter who likes him, they are destined to be a tragedy and will only suffer from following him for a few more years.

Xie Si understood his situation, sighed and said: "Being liked is a beautiful thing. You can never give up the beautiful people and things around you because of those people. Once you miss it, it will be gone."

"And...some people, like me..."

Xie Si said bitterly: "I didn't even miss the chance."

After Xi Yu hung up the phone, she was stunned for a long time before dialing Sheng Lanqing's number.

When it showed that the connection was connected, he reacted like an electric shock and asked: "You...you haven't rested yet?"

Sheng Lanqing wore purple floral pajamas, quickly closed the bedroom door, walked to the balcony on the top floor, faced the locked iron door, and whispered: "I'm not asleep yet, I can't sleep."

In fact, as soon as she lay down, when she saw his call, she suddenly woke up, no longer sleepy, and felt a little joy and excitement brewing in her heart.

She was very happy that he could reply to messages all day long, not to mention that he took the initiative to call her.
