The chatter and laughter of everyone on the first floor came through the door. The room was filled with light and silence. Su Xi could clearly hear the man's breathing. In an instant, the blood in her body surged and her heartbeat accelerated.

The wall on her back was cold, but her chest was filled with heat. The alternation of hot and cold made her feel unbearable for a moment, and she even found it difficult to breathe.

The man finally stopped, but did not leave his hand supporting the wall. He leaned into her ear and said in a hoarse voice, without distinguishing between joy and anger, "At the critical moment, my second uncle screamed with joy."

Su Xi took a deep breath, knowing that the man would take the blame.

She didn't know if he was angry, so she lowered her voice and said slowly, "Grandpa told me that when you encounter difficulties, there are shortcuts to take, so don't show off."

The man seemed to chuckle, his voice lukewarm, "Why don't you look for Shen Ming?"

Su Xi gently pinched the corner of his clothes with her fingers, "Don't you see that he did it on purpose? He is taking revenge on me."

"Since you know, why do you still come with him?"

"I owe him a favor."

Ling Jiuze lowered his eyes and looked at the girl's picturesque features, "Because of Li Rong's matter?"

Su Xi looked up in shock, "How did you know?"

After saying that, she figured it out on her own. She called him right next to Landu that night, and he must have checked it later.

Ling Jiuze said solemnly, "People like Li Rong won't talk nonsense inside, and the police can't find you, so there's nothing to worry about.

Su Xi realized that he had already taken care of her. The corners of her lips curved slightly, and a hint of warmth flashed in her eyes.

Before she could speak, the man continued in her ear, "Stay away from Shen Ming. I don't have the habit of sharing my bed with others."

Su Xi was startled, her face slightly stiff, and the warmth she felt for a moment cooled down, as if a handful of ice and snow had been stuffed into Gunte's heart. She said softly, "I understand."

The curve of the corner of her mouth turned into self-mockery. She didn't know what she was expecting just now. It was obvious that they had agreed before that they would not talk about money or feelings when they were together, just for happiness.

Ling Jiuze had already stood up, his expression was as usual, and his long eyes were still dark and deep. They seemed to be full of deep affection that could not be seen at a glance, but in fact they were calm and indifferent inside.

"Get out." The man said.

Su Xi nodded slightly, turned around, opened the door and drove away.

The two of them stayed inside for so long, no one dared to ask, and no one even dared to show a doubtful look. They only stepped forward to greet Ling Jiuze respectfully and humbly.

The women looked at Su Xi with fear, their expressions were evasive and unnatural.

Su Xi felt a little bored, so she went to the corridor to get some fresh air, thinking about saying goodbye and leaving later.

Who knew that there was already someone in the corridor, smoking against the wooden railing, it was Shen Ming.

He heard the voice and returned, his eyes fell on Su Xi, a look of surprise flashed across the fox's eyes, he smiled, and praised without any concealment, "It's so beautiful!"

Su Xi's expression remained unchanged and she said softly, "Your goal has been achieved, can I go back?"

Shen Ming put out his cigarette, leaned against the wooden fence, and smiled, "What's the hurry? Let's talk."

Su Xi said, "We have nothing to talk about."

"Then let's talk about you and Ling Jiuze." Shen Ming raised his beautiful eyebrows, "What's your relationship?"

Su Xi's eyes were calm, "Didn't you hear me call him second uncle?"
