MTL - Rebirth 90s: Sweetheart Cub-Chapter 507 There are some injuries that the eyes cannot see
Chapter 507 some damage, the eyes can not see
All night there was chaos.
Early the next morning, the taxi stopped at the gate of the main house of the Li family.
Li Shiqing got out of the car, lowered her head, and walked quickly and quickly.
She was wearing the same silk dress from yesterday, with messy creases on the fabric.
Standing at the door of the house, Li Shiqing flinched and glanced inside tentatively. After finding no one inside, she breathed a sigh of relief, walked inside, and took a shortcut back to her residence.
Li Shiqing's residence is in the innermost corner of the house, and he needs to pass through two small courtyards on the way.
During the period, Li Shiqing lowered her head all the way, and the closer she got to the residence, the faster her steps.
Seeing that she could step into the small hanging flower door of her residence, Li Shiqing squeezed her hands and held her fingers loosely.
At this time, a soft call came from behind unexpectedly.
"Auntie, how did you come back from outside?"
Li Siqing froze suddenly, guilt and panic flashed in his eyes, and when he turned around, he forced a smile on his face, "Uh, I have something to do, and when I went out, I realized that I didn't take something, so I went back to get something."
Li Fengyao was standing not far behind her. The asparagus in the garden next to her had grown a little taller. A little light and shadow fell on the side of his face, making him look a little more gloomy for no reason.
Turning his eyes around the woman, he nodded suddenly, "Well, I thought you didn't come back all night. You were still wearing the same dress as last night, why didn't you change your clothes before going out? There are a lot of wrinkles, my aunt has always paid attention to decency."
Li Siqing realized how unconvincing his words just now were, and the guilt and panic in his eyes grew stronger, "I was in a hurry, so I put on a casual dress and didn't look at it. It turned out that I wore it last night."
In order to hide her guilty conscience, she changed the topic, "Why are you at home today, don't you have to go back to school?"
"My aunt got so busy that she even forgot the time. Today is the weekend." Li Fengyao raised the corners of her lips with a warm smile. "By the way, Auntie, I came to see you because I wanted to ask you for help. It was a coincidence that I ran into you coming back to pick up something. Otherwise, I might have missed it."
The young man's smile was clearly as clear and gentle as before, but he met those eyes that seemed to see through everything. Li Shiqing felt extremely panicked.
There is a sense of nothing to hide, depressing and embarrassing.
She brushed her hair unnaturally, "What are you talking about, whenever you need help, when did your aunt refuse you?"
"You know the current situation of our family. There is only one breath left. Mr. Hua has some problems with foreign industries, and he has to fly over for a while. The absence of others will have a great impact on us. So I want to take advantage of him. Talk to him before going abroad to see if he can increase his investment in the Li family. Unfortunately, I am too young, so it is not convincing to go alone, and the other elders in the family have their own things to do. After thinking about it , I can only ask my aunt to help me and go to the dinner with me."
"I'll accompany you? But I don't know how to do business, and I don't know anything about entertainment and business dealings. How can I help you?" Li Shiqing subconsciously resisted.
It feels bad to be asked to go to a dinner party to socialize.
It's like when the elder brother insisted on having her present when he was discussing business with Gao Ming, and sat beside him to accompany him.
Even if the Li family is down and out, she is still the fourth young lady of the Li family, the wife of Xiao Changshan, the wife of the Xiao family.
But the things the family asked her to do turned her into a clown accompanying the wine.
The gossip in the circle has been passed on to her countless times, and now she, Li Shiqing, has become a joke in the circle.
Li Shiqing didn't want to go, even if her most beloved nephew asked, she didn't want to.
Seeing the resistance on her face, Li Fengyao didn't force it, put her hands in her trouser pockets, and said helplessly, "Since my aunt is unwilling, I won't force it either. I'll think of other ways to not waste your time."
When he turned to leave, he stopped again, "By the way, auntie should change into clothes before going out. It's not good to go out to meet people like this. If those ladies in the circle see it, there will be gossip again."
There was a pain in the fingers pinching the handbag. The overlong nails broke off, leaving a crescent moon mark on the surface of the bag. Li Shiqing's face was pale, and she couldn't deceive herself anymore.
My nephew has already seen through.
"Ayao, when is the dinner?" she asked.
Li Fengyao, who took a few steps, stopped, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked, full of sarcasm.
One afternoon in mid-June, Xiao Li received a call from Xiao Changshan.
The meeting place is still the old residential area in the south of the city, the small coffee room where the two met last time.
Xiao Changshan felt bitter when he looked at the young man with broad shoulders and long legs, and his facial features became more and more sharp.
They are father and son, but when the boy faces him, he always has an indifferent expression, as if looking at a stranger.
"I've paid my salary." Xiao Changshan said, took out a square box from his pocket, and pushed it in front of the boy with some unease, "Two days ago, I passed by a shop and saw that this sports watch was not bad, so I bought it. Aren't you going to have your birthday in a few days? Let's treat this as a birthday present."
Xiao Li lowered his eyes, and his eyes fell on the box. The price of the L brand sports watch is neither high nor low.
Probably more than half of Xiao Changshan's salary.
"Take it and return it." He raised his black eyes and looked at Xiao Changshan lightly, "I don't like wearing watches anymore after I was nine years old."
Xiao Changshan was startled, and said embarrassingly, "The teller said this is a model that most teenagers like, and it sold well. I thought you would like it..."
Xiao Li snorted.
The sneer brought Xiao Changshan's thoughts back to when the boy was nine years old.
In the small garden of the Li family’s mansion, a child of the Li family saw the beautiful black sports watch on Xiao Li’s hand, and wanted it.
At that time, he and Li Shiqing directly tore the watch off the boy's hand and gave it to the boy.
He can't remember the name of the child. At that time, in his opinion, giving away a watch was not a big deal at all, not worth mentioning.
Just buy another piece for Xiao Li later, if there is anything important, it’s all from my own family.
Send a watch, young and old are happy, and poetry is also happy.
Everyone's happy.
Xiao Changshan's face gradually turned pale, he moistened his dry lips, and tried to recall again.
At that time, the son didn't cry or fuss, but only gave a very shallow snort, as if nothing happened.
But since then, he seems to have never seen his son wearing a watch again.
"A Li, I..." He talked for a long time, but didn't know what to say.
It is only now that it dawns on me that nothing happened at that time, and his son, Xiao Li, completely excluded them from the scope of his own people.
Some traces of injury are invisible to the eyes.
It will only slowly ferment over the years and months in the future, and it will backfire a little bit.
