In the early morning, the sun shines into the bedroom through the gauze curtains.
Lu Xining, who was sleeping, subconsciously rubbed her body against her side, but she didn't touch the expected heat source, let alone the arm that naturally held her in his arms.
Slowly opening his eyes, he saw that Jin Shaoheng had already gotten up and he was the only one in the bedroom. Other than that, the whole house was quiet.
I looked at the time, it was already past eight o'clock.
No wonder, even Jin Muchi went to school.
She became more and more sleepy after becoming pregnant. Jin Shaoheng turned off the alarm clock she set every day, unless there was something particularly important.
Over time, she has become lazier and lazier.
He struggled to get up from the bed, washed up and went out.
"Young lady, are you awake?" Zhuang Ma put down the needle and thread in her hand and came over immediately.
"Yeah." Lu Xining responded, looking around the room, and asked, "Where is Shaoheng?"
"The young master said something happened and he went out early in the morning." Zhuang's mother replied.
Lu Xining nodded, thinking that he seemed to be quite busy recently.
Zhuang's mother quickly brought out breakfast. She ate something casually and asked Jiang Cheng to take her to the company.
"Little Miss Lu!"
"Little Miss Lu!"
She returned to the office amid greetings all the way.
Not long after sitting down, I realized something was wrong with Lin Zhiyi.
Their offices are not only next to each other, but also separated only by a piece of transparent glass, so they can see clearly.
This workaholic had been in a daze all morning, so she simply knocked on the glass.
Lin Zhiyi heard the movement and looked over, and Lu Xining motioned for her to come over.
Lin Zhiyi looked lazy, but still got up and came to her side.
"Miss Lin, what's wrong with you?" Lu Xining poured a glass of water for her.
"It's okay." Lin Zhiyi denied.
Lu Xining didn't say anything, he just held the makeup mirror in front of her.
Lin Zhiyi looked at himself inside. Although the corners of his lips were slightly raised, his expression was extremely ugly, like a lost dog.
"Don't you want to talk about it?" Lu Xining asked.
In her impression, this level of sadness only occurred when she broke up with Xiao Ci.
Lin Zhiyi lowered his head and said after a long time: "Would you like to go out for a drink with me?"
"Now?" Lu Xining subconsciously glanced at the sun outside.
Lin Zhiyi nodded firmly.
Lu Xining saw that she was in a bad mood, so he stood up and said, "Let's go."
Near noon, the two found a private room in a hotel near the studio.
Lu Xining was not allowed to drink, so she only ate vegetables, while Lin Zhiyi drank one cup after another.
Seeing that the half bottle of liquor was gone so quickly, Lu Xining finally couldn't stand it anymore and pressed her hand: "It's almost done."
She has been in poor health recently. She said she would not come back in Hengdian a few days ago, but she actually suffered from stomach bleeding due to drinking.
If it weren't for the fact that she was in a bad mood, Lu Xining would not have allowed her to ruin her body in front of him like this.
Lin Zhiyi drank a little hastily, and now the alcohol was getting to her head.
With her cheeks flushed, she hugged Lu Xining and said, "Did you know? Xiao Ci has found a new sponsor and will no longer need me."
Lu Xining was stunned for a moment.
She had always known what Lin Zhiyi had done for Xiao Ci, otherwise he would not have had so many troubles and still have stable resources.
Although he is not yet good enough to play the male lead, he is still one step away from becoming a good drama.
But that's not the point. The point is that she thought Lin Zhiyi couldn't let go of Xiao Ci because she treated him like this, and Xiao Ci couldn't let go of her either.
Isn't it?
"Zhiyi, you guys broke up already." Lu Xining reminded her.
"I know." Lin Zhiyi said.
But she never seemed to get over that relationship, even though she was the one who broke up.
Lu Xining swallowed these words back, hugged her and said, "Zhiyi, you have always been very chic -"
"I know, I'm actually quite happy. I no longer have to clean up his mess in the middle of the night, and I no longer have to go around looking for resources for him.
After all, I'm not my brother. I only have a small studio. If I didn't rely on the four words "Lin's daughter", who could give me face?
But even if I give up this face, it's not worth a lot of money.
Lu Xining, I'm really tired these days, and I'm finally relieved."
Lin Zhiyi talked drunkenly, saying the word "liberation", but it still made people feel heartbroken.
Before Lu Xining could speak, she started to ramble again: "Xiao Ci is right, a qualified predecessor should be as if he is dead, instead of jumping up and down like me, self-righteous and self-impressed."
"But Xining, I really just want to make up for it."
“It’s my family’s fault that he’s like this, do you know?
So he deliberately approached me, which made me angry and then felt distressed.
My brother bankrupted his family and harmed his parents. Our Lin family is sorry for him."
"I just want him to be well. I didn't want to disturb him."
Perhaps she had been holding it in for too long, and while she was drunk, Lin Zhiyi poured out everything at once, crying and screaming.
Jiang Cheng stood guard at the door and looked in many times, fearing that she would get drunk and go crazy and hurt Lu Xining.
Fortunately, Lin Zhiyi just wanted to vent her emotions, and after drinking, she just held her for comfort.
Lu Xining knew that no matter what he said at this time, Lin Zhiyi would not listen.
What can be said?
She obviously couldn't let go. Under such circumstances, she couldn't be encouraged to continue to pursue Xiao Ci, knowing that there was such a deep hatred between the two families.
After Lin Zhiyi fell asleep, Lu Xining asked Jiang Cheng to help him take her home.
While she was asleep, Lu Xining searched the Internet for Xiao Ci's current situation.
All the negative news has been suppressed, and it's pretty clean. No one mentions the Lin family, nor does anyone mention any sponsors.
However, her intuition told her that Xiao Ci may not be heartless towards Lin Zhiyi.
Maybe Xiao Ci found that sponsor on purpose because he didn't want to accept Lin Zhiyi's love and didn't want her to sacrifice for him.
But Lu Xining didn't want to tell her, and once he told Lin Zhiyi, he couldn't let go of Xiao Ci, and the two became even more entangled.
Lin Zhiyi slept all afternoon and woke up with a splitting headache.
Lu Xining cooked sobering soup for her to drink. After venting her anger, her condition seemed to be getting better.
Lin Zhiyan called and didn't know what he said, so Lin Zhiyi changed her clothes and hurried over.
Lu Xining saw that it was not too early, so he was ready to go home.
I didn't ask any questions when I got in the car, but found that Jiang Cheng had parked the car in the underground parking lot of a shopping mall.
"Jiang Cheng, do you want to buy something?" Lu Xining was confused.
Under normal circumstances, Jiang Cheng's shopping would not take up his time. Even if he was really in a hurry, he should say hello to her in advance on the way.
"No, Mr. Jin is waiting for you upstairs." Jiang Cheng replied and took off his seat belt.
Lu Xining was even more confused.
But since it was arranged by Jin Shaoheng, she felt a lot more at ease.
The two took the elevator to the top floor and saw promotional posters for various movies.
"Why don't you let us in?" Two young girls together stood at the door and argued with the employees.
"Sorry, there are already customers who have reserved the theater." The theater employee explained.
"The theater is still reserved? How many people are watching?" The girl was dissatisfied.
The employee could only apologize, looked up and saw Lu Xining, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Mrs. Jin, you are here, please come inside."
So, Lu Xining walked in uncomfortably under the attention of the two girls.
The corridor is a little dark and the surroundings are quiet.
Lu Xining walked forward slowly alone and entered an open door.
Different from traditional cinema, it is similar to a private room in a restaurant.
Jin Shaoheng sat in front of the table with roses, which could be seen to have been carefully arranged.
