C105 (1/2)

His mother was really shrewd. Back then, she was also foolish like him. For her family, she didn't hesitate to sacrifice her own happiness and sold herself to Leng Lie. Hehe … The mother who had been so desperate, always calling her, was now so terrible.

If a person was bad, then there would be no bottom line. Everything his mother did, every word she said, was jabbing at her heart.

Perform well in front of Leng Lie? Did Xu Nana fall in love with Leng Lie? The same as Wang Qian Ya, don't you know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is?

What did his mother think? Did he want Nana to stay with Leng Lie, or did he want her to stay with other playboys? In the end, he was just a brainless person. There were even people who sold off their two daughters for money. Not only was he biased, he even pushed his two daughters into a pit of fire. It was really incomprehensible.

Lady Xu peeled the orange for Leng Lie, while thinking that she had forgotten to peel the orange for Leng Lie.

Leng Lie did not say a word as he continued to observe Lady Xu. He was especially displeased when he saw Lady Xu's mother and sister.

Xu Nana's expression was filled with disdain as she looked at his woman. This mother of hers was even more outrageous. Given how poor he was, to dare to offer such a loan for a high interest, he didn't like such a woman who had no head or brains.

It was also because she pitied Lady Xu. Just how much pain had she endured back then?

Thinking up to here, Leng Lie suddenly found it hard to say anything bad about himself. Looking at the hands of the woman who peeled orange, it was very rough. The hands of a person who did a lot of work at home was the only way it would be like this. Although her face was as enchanting as ever, it still made people feel that she was very beautiful. However, there was a hint of worry on his face.

Leng Lie felt that everything he had done in the past was too scoundrelly. When he first met her in the bar, he thought that this woman had only sold her soul to millions of gold dame for the sake of obtaining a generous sum of money. He really didn't like her at all. Only after learning about her family's recent situation did he understand that she had been forced to do so.

He had wanted her to be on the top rankings with him, and wanted to bring her to the Leng Clan in order to suppress Xu Yanmei. He hadn't expected that she would suffer even more harm. He had also been blinded by his love and had to treat this pitiful and haggard woman with cruelty. He sighed softly in his heart as he looked at the woman before him with a cold gaze. His heart ached slightly.

”Lady Xu.” Leng Lie called out softly, causing Lady Xu to come back to her senses. ”What happened?”

”Where's my orange?”

”I'm not giving it to you …” Just as she was about to say something else, she caught sight of three oranges from the corner of her eyes. Lady Xu smiled wryly and said, ”Sorry, I …”

”My mind wandered?” Leng Lie said with certainty, ”Do something for me. Be more serious.”

”Mhm mhm, I got it.” Lady Xu continued peeling the oranges while Leng Lie stood up. He looked over here and over there. When his gaze landed on his father's face, he felt that the man in front of him was skinny and looked like he was going to leave at any moment.

This person should be the father of Lady Xu … He had asked the hospital to be in charge of the treatment. Even though the hospital had tried its best, it still hadn't been able to help Lady Xu's father's health. Luckily, she did not turn into a vegetable, otherwise, she might really be a zombie.

Now, he only needed a glance from Lady Xu to know what she was thinking. When she saw her mother and sister, she didn't cheer for them. Instead, a trace of boredom flashed through her eyes.

Who could like such a gambling addict?

It was hard for her to grow up in such an environment. Back then, he had kept scolding her. Now that he thought about it, he felt that he had gone too far. He knew that Lady Xu would never leave him, and this was even worse. No wonder Lady Xu loved to cry, because she was too much of a bastard.

A trace of heartache flashed through his pitch-black pupils as he withdrew his brows. Leng Lie looked at the woman who had peeled the tangerine, his emotions instantly becoming complicated.

To her... Did he like it? Or love?

What about the stream rain?

He had always resisted this question, but he had never ignored it. Because for many moments, he had asked himself, ”Who is the person I love the most?”

”Time to eat …”

Before long, Liu Xuemei told Xu Nana to bring the dishes out.

Xu Nana looked at Lady Xu and Leng Lie, smiled sweetly and said, ”Sister …” Elder sister's boyfriend, come and eat quickly. ”

Sister's boyfriend?

Leng Lie slightly knitted his brows, correcting Xu Nana's honorific title: ”Not a boyfriend, but a husband.”

A pair of sharp eyes swept over her body. Amidst her fear, Xu Nana heard the words ”you have to call me brother-in-law”.

Xu Nana was frightened by the coldness. Liu Xuemei thought to herself, ”Not good.” She immediately went out and winked at Xu Nana, asking her to help her sister.

Lady Xu said helplessly, ”Leng Lie, I didn't tell my family …”

She had never told anyone in her family about betraying her, much less getting married.

”It's fine. It's good that you know it now.”

Xu Nana nodded obediently and said, ”Brother-in-law, I'm sorry.”

Liu Xuemei responded, ”You, kid, always call these people the wrong people. Your brother-in-law won't blame you. Quickly sit down and eat. ”

”Mom, you guys eat first, I'll go feed dad.”

”Put it down and accompany your husband.” Liu Xuemei looked at Xu Nana, ”During the time you disappeared, it was your sister who fed your father.”

Xu Nana nodded in understanding, pretended to be extremely filial, and carried the food to the back room.

”Eat up. The dishes for today were carefully prepared by Nana.” As he spoke, he picked up the chopsticks and gave them to Leng Lie. His fawning attitude made it seem as if he wanted to lick Leng Lie's legs.
