Chapter 16: mock

    "Shen Xi and Li Mingxuan had a good night meeting, and the Li family bet on the third young master of the Shen family!"

    The huge headline is eye-catching and eye-catching, hanging on the front page of the newspaper.

    Below the title is a candid photo with the hotel where Shen Xi lives in the background. In the photo, you can clearly see the figure of Li Mingxuan and Shen Xi standing together. From the angle of the photo, Li Mingxuan is talking to Shen Xi with a smile on his face.

    This is a new newspaper published today, which is in front of Li Mingxuan at this time.

    Li Mingxuan's eyes did not stop on the provocative title, but fell directly on the photo below the title.

    From the photo, the smile on his face is very obvious, obviously he was in a good mood at the time. Li Mingxuan's expression was slightly startled for a moment. He remembered that he was just chatting with Shen Xi a few times, but maybe he didn't even realize that his expression would be so relaxed. Without the suspicion and defense that he first met on the plane, Li Mingxuan felt that he regarded Shen Xi as the same brother as Shen Cheng, as long as Shen Xi...

    Li Mingxuan didn't continue to think about it, and subconsciously, he is not willing to maliciously guess the purpose of Shen Xi's return. In fact, Shen Xi didn't do anything after returning, and her relationship with her uncle was as bad as ever. Li Mingxuan felt a faint sigh of relief in his heart.

    The phone rang at the right time, interrupting Li Mingxuan's thoughts, Shen Ji's voice came from it, showing a strong exhaustion.

    "Sorry Mingxuan!"

    This is the first time that Shen Ji has said sorry to Li Mingxuan for so many years. Although Shen Ji didn't say anything, both of them knew exactly what he was doing.

    Li Mingxuan smiled bitterly, last night's incident had obviously left a nick between the two, otherwise, according to their friendship, Shen Jizi could take it as a slip of the tongue, why bother Special apology.

    With a deep sigh, Li Mingxuan said, "Aji, you know I didn't take it to heart."

    Li Mingxuan's voice was the same as before, Shen Ji seemed to relax a lot, his tone was much lighter than before, "Well, I know, we are brothers for life."

    Li Mingxuan's eyes fell on the newspaper in front of him again. After a momentary pause, Li Mingxuan repeated in a louder voice, "Yes, we are brothers for life."

    Hang up the phone, Li Mingxuan looked at the table with complicated eyes, and reached out to cover the newspaper on it.

     

    Shen Ji read the report over and over again with a sullen face, and suddenly smashed it into a ball and threw it away, while doing all this, he kept repeating in his mind What Li Mingxuan just said - we are brothers for life.

    Shen Ji took a deep breath, raised his head and looked at the roof unconsciously. Getting along with Li Mingxuan over the past 20 years flashed through my mind one by one like a silent movie in an old movie. Shen Ji closed his eyes, they were brothers for life, he should not doubt Shen Ji, all this was just a reporter's fabrication.

    But there is always a voice in Shen Ji's heart asking why Ming Xuan appeared in front of Shen Xi after they separated last night?

     

     

    Shen Rong seemed to be very surprised by the appearance of Shen Xi, a trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes, and she took Shen's father's arm and looked over, "Third brother!"

    Shen Xi glanced at Shen Rong's movements mockingly, and responded coldly, "I'm the youngest in the Shen family's family tree, why don't I know when I have another younger brother."

      Meaning. There are only three brothers in the Shen family, and he can't afford a younger brother with special hobbies."

    Shen Xi accentuated her special hobbies, and soon saw the gloomy expressions of Shen's father and Shen Rong at the same time. But this sentence was said by Shen Ji. No matter how much Father Shen likes Shen Rong, Shen Rong has to rank behind Shen Ji. Shen Rong naturally understands this in his heart, so he can only chuckle awkwardly and avoid this question. .

    Shen Xi glanced at Shen Rong with a sneer, and looked at Father Shen casually, "Father, I heard that a new nurse has come to the ward, why haven't I seen her?"

    Shen Xi's question caught Shen Rong's attention, he knew that Shen Xi would not inquire about any nurse for no reason, is it targeting himself again? Shen Rong looked at Shen Xi vigilantly, and met Shen Xi's mocking eyes.

      Shen Rong lowered his eyes calmly, guessing the origin of this nurse in his heart.

    The door of the ward was pushed open at this moment, and a sweet voice came, "Mr. Shen, it's time for you to take medicine."

    Shen Rong subconsciously followed the voice and looked over, and when she saw the person coming, she was stunned, with an expression like being struck by lightning.

    Chu Qianqian appeared at the door with the medicine, noticed that there were other people in the room, looked at Father Shen embarrassedly, "Sorry, Mr. Shen bothered you, I didn't know you had guest."

    Father Shen put on a kind expression when he heard that Chu Qianqian mentioned taking medicine, and at this time he laughed even more, "It's okay, it's time to take medicine, Just do your own thing, Xiao Chu."

      Shen Rong stared blankly at the woman who appeared, not knowing what kind of expression she should make at this time.

    Chu Qianqian quickly looked away from Shen Rong's face and carefully placed the medicine beside Shen's father.

     

    Shen Rong didn't know how he got out of the ward, the empty corridor was silent and silent, and the bodyguards were quietly guarding both ends of the floor.

    There was a sound of footsteps behind him, Shen Rong instantly recovered, and suddenly rushed to Shen Xi who was following him, lowered his voice, "It's you, it's you, right? That woman You found it, right?"

    Shen Xi raised her eyebrows, looking innocent, "What did you say?"

    Shen Rong's expression was distorted, "You don't understand what I said? You know that my father likes my mother, so he deliberately found a similar woman, right?"

    Shen Xi looked at Shen Rong mockingly, "Do you really think this way?"

    Shen Rong's eyes shrank suddenly, and then she looked back hard.

    Shen Xi smiled slightly, got close to Shen Rong's ear and said in a pitying tone, "Actually, you know it very well, right? Whether it's you or Zhou Mingmei It's just a substitute for a dead person. Do you think your father likes you? He just wants to find the shadow of that woman in you. Looking at your face, my father must have regretted it countless times in his heart, why do you His biological mother is Zhou Mingmei instead of the woman in his heart? Does your father like to see your smiling face the most? What do you think it is? The woman's person appeared, what do you think your existence is worth?"

    Shen Rong listened to what Shen Xi said with a grim expression.

    Shen Xi straightened up with satisfaction, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth, "Wake up, don't deceive yourself. What father likes you, what a joke."

     

    Shen Xi's heart flashed for a moment, should she dodge or take this punch on purpose?

    The thought was only for a moment, the sound of hurried footsteps came, and a familiar figure stood in front of Shen Xi and clenched the waving fist.

    The expressions of Shen Xi and Shen Rong were momentarily stunned, Shen Xi quickly reacted and took a step back.

    Shen Rong shyly stopped, Li Mingxuan released his clenched fist and looked at Shen Rong coldly, "What do you want to do?"

    Shen Rong gritted her teeth and glanced at Shen Xi, stubbornly said nothing.

    Li Mingxuan frowned invisibly, turning a blind eye to Shen Rong's expression, "Uncle needs to rest, you better not have any conflicts here."

     

    The bodyguards surrounding both sides dispersed once again when the situation was under control.

    Seeing that there was no one else around, Li Mingxuan turned to Shen Xi, his low voice showed a hint of anger, "Why didn't you just run away?"

    Shen Xi was stunned for a moment, but before she could react, Li Mingxuan followed up and asked, "Do you think that if you suffer a loss in front of Shen Rong, you can make your uncle favor you? You clearly know that …”

    Li Mingxuan's unfinished words stopped in Shen Xi's mocking eyes, Shen Xi laughed mockingly, "What do I know? I know that even if I die in front of my father, my father will not Look at me, not to mention that I was just punched a few times by my father's favorite bastard."

    Shen Xi lowered her eyes, "You think too much, it was just that Shen Rong moved too fast, I didn't avoid it."

    Shen Xi turned her head and was about to leave after saying this, but Li Mingxuan suddenly reached out and grabbed him, "Sorry, I didn't mean it."

    Li Mingxuan's voice was sincere, Shen Xi's body paused, and after a while, she slowly turned around and looked at Li Mingxuan with a smile, "It's okay, I know you have good intentions."

    Shen Xi's smile was as clean and gentle as last night, but Li Mingxuan felt a deep alienation in it.
