Bamboo horse is not a gentleman

Chapter 46

"What if I... disagree?"

Ruan Xinmei sneered:
"It seems that my son has protected you too well and made you feel extraordinarily good about yourself."

Yuan Qing put the will on the coffee table, trying to restrain his anger:
"Sorry, Ms. Ruan, I have to go back, my mother is still in the hospital."

"Lu Bai is not by your side today, right? In this kind of lonely and helpless time, a man always waits by a woman's side to show his ability and strength, but he left you. Aren't you curious?"

"When Lu Bai wants to tell me, he will naturally tell me."

"My son is so pitiful. He thinks so much about you, but you don't care."

Yuan Qing clenched her hands, feeling that she was on the verge of breaking out.

"This morning my son - went to make a deal with the gangsters under Li Yan. As long as they don't disturb your life anymore, he is willing to transfer the villa in Xinghe District to them for free! He is so confused. In exchange for his brother's life, I personally gave him the property, how can I just give it up! Before you, I remember that he was not so weak, stubborn, and had a bad temper. His bottom line, even if it takes his life, will not change. But now he has changed. He has changed after living with you, becoming weak, looking forward and backward, loving children, Miss Yuan, your existence is ultimately still Become his weakness!"

Yuan Qing stood still, her feet were as heavy as a thousand catties, and she could no longer take a step forward.

Ruan Xinmei is a devil. Not only is she cunning, she is good at playing with other people's weaknesses, but she can also read people's hearts.

"You only have one chance. If you shrink back or hesitate, I won't give it again." The devil, dressed in a gold and jade shell, smiled faintly, with bewitching and certainty.

Yuan Qing stood still, in a dilemma.

"Don't you love Lu Bai very much? Don't you really want to be my daughter-in-law? In this world, no one can enjoy a free lunch. If you don't pay, you can't get anything in return."

Yuan Qing turned her head and looked at Ruan Xinmei's face. Perhaps her mother's repeated domestic violence by her stepfather until she was hospitalized aroused her inner anger. A good result will only get closer and closer to the abyss.

"I will do anything for Lu Bai." Yuan Qing retorted, "except what he doesn't want me to do."

Ruan Xinmei was neither angry nor surprised, but just looked at her expressionlessly.

"Many years ago, Lu Bai worked everywhere, saved money desperately, and only wanted to leave Anqing and Li's family. I can't imagine how much suffering he endured during this period. But I will never do things that drag him down. .”

Ruan Xin raised her eyebrows and laughed:

"Say a thousand words and ten thousand, you can't love him as much as yourself after all. Destroying a will is against the law, so you refuse to do it for him. You would rather watch him lose his identity as the group's Shaodong and be released from prison. Li Yan messes around at will. Or do you think——I can't let go of the status of the president of Yaoyang Group, and Lu Bai will be my successor sooner or later, so even if you don't do this dirty thing, I will do it? Miss Yuan, The abacus is really good!"

Ruan Xinmei's words hit her heart like a punch, and Yuan Qing's lips turned white with anger. The closer she got to Lu Bai's life, the more she realized that Lu Bai could grow into the independent, courageous, and firm-minded man she is now. A man is already a special gift from heaven, if it were her, she would not know how it would be distorted.

Ruan Xinmei is really a shrewd, ruthless and terrifying woman. It seems that there is a poison hidden in her bones, a poison with a crazy and destructive temperament. She doesn't seem to love anyone, and hates everyone, including her son, maybe, too. Including herself.

"Lu Bai is your own son, why do you always persecute him like this?"

Ruan Xinmei smiled slightly:
"I've been helping him, but he can't see clearly."

At this moment, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded from outside the door. It was the echo of high heels on the marble floor. Subconsciously, Yuan Qing's raised expectations sank again.

That's right, it can't be him...

Unexpectedly, Li Xueshan arrived.

"Godmother, I can do this, why should I leave it to this woman?"

Ruan Xin sighed and said concisely:

"Lu Bai doesn't like you."

Li Xueshan's gorgeous face turned pale for a moment:

"I'll make him like me."

Ruan Xinmei shook her head:
"If you are like me, he won't like it. If you are like her, I can't accept you."

Li Xueshan is still dying:
"It's just that Lu Bai is still in the rebellious stage. Men always mature late. I can wait."

Ruan Xinmei annihilated the cigarette butt in the ashtray:
"You child, sometimes you are very smart, and sometimes you are crazy. What are men? Only useless women learn to be Siluo and get entangled with that useless tree. When the godmother was young, there was no way, but You have a lot of youth and money, don't do stupid things like those simple women! I will give you everything you want, except for the useless decoration of feelings."

Li Xueshan gritted her teeth, her face full of resignation, she finally stopped her words and walked away.

The two people who stayed.

From the perspective of landscaping, it is the future mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

More bluntly, it's the devil and her pawns who are about to go out.

Ruan Xinmei is still waiting, it seems that as long as she doesn't leave this living room, she has the right to know Yuan Qing's choice.

Yuan Qing stared at the file bag, his heart was tumbling.

At this moment, the mobile phone in his pocket buzzed as thin as a mosquito. Yuan Qing woke up like a puppet with a switch switched on. When he turned on the mobile phone, he saw that the caller was——Lv Bai.

He finally showed up, when she needed him the most, he appeared like a magic needle in the sea.

"Lu Bai?" Her voice rose slightly, and only she knew how much joy and sorrow were hidden in this slight fluctuation.

Lu Bai quickly noticed something:
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, nothing." Yuan Qing instinctively turned her back to cover Ruan Xinmei's cold eyes.

"Auntie just called and said she was going to be discharged from the hospital."

"Discharged? Are there any problems with the test results?"

"The doctor said that there is no serious problem at present."

"Why didn't she call me?"

Yuan Qing knew that he was asking what he knew. After the quarrel and roar, the warmth between the mother and daughter these years was like an oil painting whose frame was suddenly removed.

Lu Bai was silent for a moment, as if he was considering his words.

Yuan Qing smiled sadly and said:

"Needless to say, I know why."

These years are not without resentment, not without hatred, and the repeated and repeated forbearance finally broke out at the most inappropriate time.The relationship between people is as thin as ceramics, as long as it is broken, no amount of strong adhesive can cover up the previous cracks, even the flesh and blood of close relatives is no exception.

Lu Bai lowered his voice:
"Where are you?"

"I'm... where are you?"

Lu Bai hesitated for a few seconds before answering:
"I just... had dinner with my friends, and I'm back at the hotel now."

Yuan Qing only felt that his heart was tightened by invisible hands, and his internal organs ached:

"Is that so, are you okay?"

Lu Bai smiled:

"What can I do for a meal? How about you, where are you? I'll pick you up."

"I went out for a while, and I'm going back to the hotel now."

"Ok, I will wait for you."

Yuan Qing turned his head, glanced at Ruan Xinmei, his eyes met, one examined and the other resisted.

The will was quietly placed on the coffee table, like a choice, but also like a torture.

Just think of Lu Bai's expression when he faced his biological mother, that kind of hatred, that kind of tension, that kind of distortion superimposed by time and memory, and think of how he tried his best to get rid of the past and live freely in the sunshine. Now, how could I risk my life to please Ruan Xinmei and let Lu Bai return to the golden cage? !
Thinking of this, Yuan Qing turned around without any hesitation, and walked straight out of the living room, even though Ruan Xinmei's extremely cold voice seemed to come from hell:
"Don't regret it."

In fact, Yuan Qing regretted it.

No matter how ulterior motives Ruan Xinmei had, even if it was not legal to tear up the will, she still failed to do anything for Lu Bai.If there is a way to fight against Ruan Xinmei, maybe this woman can stop deliberately interfering with their lives.

Yes, their lives.

Everything she is facing now is her life, and it is also Lu Bai's.

The afternoon sun is lazy and there are few pedestrians, so even the bus is slowly crawling on the asphalt road like a snail.Yuan Qing opened the car window, and the sunlight caressed her face like a pair of gentle hands.

No matter how small Anqing is, it is still a city full of people coming and going.

When the mind is empty, no matter how much noise there is, there is only loneliness left.

Fortunately, there is another person waiting for her, waiting for her to go home.

Thinking of Lu Bai in my heart, it seemed that something was slowly melting in my heart, and the ice that had condensed deeply in my heart seemed to be about to melt away.

Yuan Qing returned to the hotel, and Lu Bai came out of the bathroom wearing a white bathrobe with a normal expression.

Yuan Qing quickly and silently looked him up and down: the man's chin had just shaved off his stubble, and there was no sign of injury on his face, neck, chest, except for his gloomy eyes, the rest was intact, and there was a smell of bath water on his body. The fragrance of dew.

At this moment, the corners of Lu Bai's mouth suddenly curled up, the gloom in his eyes dissipated, and a faint smile spread to his lips, like a marigold blooming in the shade, piercing the darkness with delicacy and brightness.

"You got so close, do you want to kiss me?"

Yuan Qing only felt that her face became hot in vain, and was about to refute, when suddenly, the man leaned down, and the unique fragrance of the shower gel rushed in, quickly overwhelmed her, and retreated quickly, as if there was nothing, Only that warm kiss on the cold lips.

The sweet entrance spreads to the limbs, to the bottom of the heart.

What Ruan Xinmei, what stepfather, what quarrel, what tricks, it doesn't matter anymore, I don't care anymore.

The sky is vast, the world is so big, and there are so many people, but the place to live, the people to meet, and the people to fall in love with are destined.
