Her heartbeat suddenly accelerated the moment she saw the phone number. Tong Jiangxin couldn't help but clenched her phone tightly. After being stunned for a few seconds, she seemed to suddenly think of something, and then quickly ran to the window.
With a brushing sound, Tong Jiangxin reached out and opened the tassel curtain in front of the window. It was already dark outside. The lights in the room shone on the glass, and the entire window was covered with Tong Jiangxin's shadow. Where could Lu Chengxi be seen?
Tong Jiangxin couldn't help but tighten her fingers on the curtain. At this moment, the mobile phone in her left hand rang again, and the vibrating sound startled her.
Looking at the numbers constantly displayed on the screen, Tong Jiangxin felt that her scalp was numb.
As time passed by, the fear in Tong Jiangxin's heart increased day by day. In the end, she had no choice but to pick up the phone without saying a word.
Lu Chengxi's deep breathing came from the mobile phone. Tong Jiangxin's voice was not heard, so he said, "Are you willing to answer the phone?"
His voice was lazier because of his drunkenness, not as calm as usual, and seemed to be a little sarcastic.
But Tong Jiangxin's heart suddenly felt at ease. She didn't know what was going on, but for some reason, she wasn't as scared as before.
Holding on to the curtain, Tong Jiangxin saw her expressionless face from the window. She lightly opened her thin lips and said, "What's the matter?"
She forced herself to make her voice sound calm.
Lucheng West Road, "come out".
It's just two words, but the meaning of the command is clear. This is a habit he has developed unconsciously because he has been in a high position all year round.
Tong Jiangxin frowned slightly and replied, "If you have anything to say, tell me."
Lu Chengxi paused for a few seconds, and then said, "Do you want me to go over and knock on the door myself?"
Tong Jiangxin's face darkened. She was tired of Lu Chengxi's repeated threats, but she had to admit that this was the most effective way, at least for her.
After the same silence for a while, Tong Jiangxin hung up the phone.
She was still wearing a bathrobe, so she turned back to the closet, put on a skirt casually, and then quietly opened the door.
The hall was dark. Uncle Cheng had already gone back to his room to sleep. Tong Jiangxin didn't want to wake him up, so she quietly walked out of the villa.
In the past, when Tong Haizheng was still here, the street lights in the yard were always on because he didn't know when Tong Haizheng would come back from talking about business. But after a series of things happened, Tong Jiangxin told Uncle Cheng that there was no need to leave any lights on in the future.
There are only two people in the house, she and Uncle Cheng, so there is no need for them.
So at this moment, Tong Jiangxin was walking in a dark yard. After walking dozens of steps, she came to the black carved door. After taking a closer look, she saw a little light not far away, flickering on and off, like
cigarette.
Tong Jiangxin opened the door and went out. She had been calm on the way here, but now she knew that Lu Chengxi was not far away from her, and she started to get nervous again.
The night wind blew up Tong Jiangxin's skirt and black hair. She had just come out of the shower and her hair had not yet been dried. As a result, she couldn't help but feel cold all over. She subconsciously stretched out her arms and crossed her arms. The closer she got, the farther ahead.
The shadow became clearer, and she saw that Lu Chengxi was still wearing the same clothes as when he was at the Oriental Hotel today, with his long body leaning casually on the sports car and smoking.
Standing five steps away from Lu Chengxi, Tong Jiangxin could vaguely see the outline of Lu Chengxi's face. She said, "What are you doing here?"
Lu Chengxi did not answer immediately. He just took a few puffs of cigarette, then threw the cigarette at his feet and stamped it out.
Tong Jiangxin watched the last bit of light in the dark night extinguish, and her heart became inexplicably nervous. But before she could calm down, Lu Chengxi had already stood up straight, with his hands casually inserted in his trouser pockets, looking at
Tong Jiang said happily, "Why are you standing so far away? Can I still eat you?"
Tong Jiangxin was frightened when she thought of the scene in the hotel bathroom today, and she couldn't help but want to step back.
She was glad that it was late at night and there were no lights. She couldn't see the expression on Lu Chengxi's face clearly, and Lu Chengxi couldn't see the nervousness on her face either. She swallowed hard and forced herself to calm down.
He said loudly, "Mr. Lu, I don't think we are the kind of people who can meet at such a time and place. It wouldn't be good to be seen. If there is nothing wrong with you, I want to go back first."
Maybe it's because she studied law, so whenever Tong Jiangxin talks about something very seriously, her appearance and tone always make people think that she is very official and official.
Lu Chengxi on the other side didn't speak for a while. This kind of atmosphere made Tong Jiangxin a little scared, but she didn't dare to turn around and leave rashly. She was afraid that Lu Chengxi would suddenly come over to start a fight with her when he was angry, so she could only stare at him without blinking.
Watch him and be wary of all his moves.
I don't know how long it took, but Lu Chengxi finally spoke up and said, "Tong Jiangxin, you are really heartless. People say that a husband and wife are blessed with a hundred days of kindness. Isn't it true that the two of us have been together for a day or two?"
How come you want to keep your distance from me so quickly after taking advantage of me?!"
Lu Chengxi's voice was low, but there was an obvious joking tone.
Tong Jiangxin couldn't see the expression on Lu Chengxi's face, but she could feel that he must be laughing and mocking.
After hearing what he said, Tong Jiangxin was surprised. Instead of getting angry, she calmly analyzed why Lu Chengxi came to her so late.
A thought suddenly flashed through her mind, and Tong Jiangxin couldn't help but frown slightly, because even she couldn't believe it.
"Lu Chengxi, why did you come to me?"
Tong Jiangxin asked aloud.
Lu Chengxi waited for a while before replying, "Nothing, let's see how you, a pampered young lady, feel when you are still living in this villa."
Tong Jiangxin asked calmly, "We have settled everything, and now I don't owe you anything. Why did you mention Li Mingyang to me? And why did you come to me so drunk? Mr. Lu, please don't
Tell me, your love for me is still lingering... Oh, no, didn't you say that it was just a transaction between us? Since it is a transaction, there is no such thing as love. Then come tonight, if you feel like it
Are you in love with me? Can’t let me go?”
Tong Jiangxin raised the corners of her lips and asked this question with a smile. She felt particularly happy because no matter what Lu Chengxi's answer was, she let out a bad breath.
As expected, after Lu Chengxi listened to Tong Jiangxin's words, he didn't answer for a long time.
