Because of what Chu Tian had said, Li Xi had been in a very bad mood the entire time.
Today, he was clearly still so gentle to me, how can he treat me as a substitute for his sister? Li Xi let out a light sigh, and her heart suddenly became very chaotic.
If Chu Tian hadn't said those words to him, then he wouldn't have cared in his heart, but since he had already said them, he couldn't pretend that nothing had happened.
Very quickly, Li Xi arrived at her doorstep.
Just as Li Xi opened the door, voices came out from the house. Lifting her eyes, she unexpectedly saw Gong Xiaotong. At this time, a familiar man's voice sounded. Li Xi frowned slightly.
Wasn't he supposed to be in the company? Why did he come back so early? Furthermore … And he actually brought Gong Xiaotong back as well.
”I'm back!” Li Xi ignored Gong Xiaotong who was in front of him and directly said to Ling Yushi.
Ling Yushi looked at her blandly. There was no longer the doting look in his eyes at noon. He only responded faintly, ”En.”
Regarding Li Xi's disregard, Gong Xiaotong also did not think much of it. She then sat opposite to Ling Yushi, smiled at Li Xi and said slowly, ”I never thought that Madam Ling would come back so early!”
Hearing that, Li Xi frowned. What did she mean? Didn't she know whose house she was in? She actually said this to me.
Seeing Li Xi's doubtful expression, Gong Xiaotong's gaze swept across Ling Yushi who had a cold face, and the smile on his face became even more brilliant.
”When I came back with President Ling, I saw you and Chu Tian chatting in the coffee shop! You haven't seen each other in a long time, I thought you'd be late to come back … I didn't expect you to be back so early. ” Gong Xiaotong explained each word, but she had a feeling that the more she described, the more inky the words seemed.
Li Xi took in a deep breath. A woman's skin was so thick, it could be considered strange! When her gaze landed on Ling Yushi's face, she could see that his expression was even more gloomy than before. It seemed that what Gong Xiaotong had just said was still somewhat exciting for him.
With regards to Li Xi's actions, Gong Xiaotong could see them clearly and rejoice in her heart. Right! It would be best if they continued their cold war like this. This was the result that they wanted.
Remembering what he had done before, not only did he not get the result he wanted, he had even helped them without them realizing it. When he thought about that, Gong Xiaotong's heart burned with anger.
He had never thought that he would be able to see the date between Li Xi and Chu Tian today, but he didn't expect that it would coincidentally happen to be the case. The heavens were helping him!
”Do you believe me?” Li Xi came to Ling Yushi's side and asked softly.
Ling Yushi's body stiffened. How was he supposed to answer that? He had just warned Chu Tian to distance himself from his woman, but not only did he not leave, he had even gone out to drink coffee with Li Xi. When he recalled their expressions when they were together, Ling Yushi felt as if a fire was burning in his heart.
He thought that if he warned Chu Tian, they wouldn't meet again. He thought that this way, they would be safe. But he had forgotten that he should have warned her.
He was very clear about Li Xi's personality, and she had experienced how stubborn she was.
What truly angered him was not the appearance of Chu Tian, but the fact that Li Xi was drinking coffee with him. If this matter was placed on someone else, he would be able to believe that it wasn't their intention, but their helplessness.
But towards Li Xi, he didn't have any such thoughts.
Li Xiao had always been a woman with her own thoughts! If she wanted to do something, then she would definitely do it well! There was nothing she didn't want to do, and no one else could force her to do it.
So she was definitely willing to have coffee with Chu Tian today.
Now that she was carrying her own child and drinking coffee with another man, who did she think she was? He recalled his previous love for her, but what about her? This was how she repaid him!
Ling Yushi sighed softly, but he still felt bitter inside.
Seeing that Ling Yushi did not answer him, Li Xi's heart sank a little. They were husband and wife. Why didn't he believe him? So what if he went for coffee with someone else? Wasn't her heart still here?
Furthermore, he had only seen one scene. He hadn't seen all of the developments of the matter, so why would he draw such a final conclusion? Li Xi pursed her lips, she was truly unreconciled!
As she inadvertently caught sight of Gong Xiaotong's complacent expression, Li Xi felt her heart clogged up. Even if she had quarreled with Ling Yushi, it didn't seem like an outsider like her would come to make a fuss, did it?
