Chapter 4 Bad and Stubborn
Xu Xiwan's original intention was to scare Lin Xing and make her admit her mistake. Although she closed the door mercilessly, she didn't really go to sleep. Regardless of Lin Xing, she was actually sitting in the living room, waiting for Lin Xing to pat the door and make her soft. Woolen cloth.After waiting for 5 minutes, Lin Xing still didn't move. Xu Xiwan knew the temperature in Sanjiu Tianjin Ridge. It was night again. A child at such a low temperature would definitely get sick from the cold if he stood outside for a while. Although Xu Xiwan was not serious I like this child, and he is not as cold-blooded as that.
Xu Xi got up late, ready to open the door for Lin Xing and let her in, but just as she stood up, the phone rang.Xu Xiwan saw that it was Xue Qushuang who called. Xue Qushuang has always been measured. If it wasn't for something serious, he would never have called Xu Xiwan at this time. Xu Xiwan didn't dare to delay, so he answered it quickly. In the ear, I heard Xue Qu double say: "The situation has changed."
Xu Xiwan frowned, "Say."
"Xu Xing'an also got involved."
Xu Xiwan's expression turned serious.
Xu Xing'an is the son of the second master of the Xu family. He is thirty this year. Although he was born to the second master, because he is the oldest and a male, he follows the elder of the Xu family, that is, Xu Taihong, Xu Xiwan's father, to take care of Xu. For many years, the internal and external affairs of Xu's family had to be decided by Xu Xing'an first, and then went up to Xu Taihong to have a look.Xu Taihong has no sons, only two daughters. Anyone with a discerning eye in the Jinling family can see that, if nothing else happens, after Xu Taihong's hundred years, the Xu family should be under the control of Xu Xing'an.
Not long after Xu Xiwan came back from abroad, her father Xu Taihong said he wanted her to exercise, so he assigned her to a newly established branch company as the vice president. The affairs of the company are already very complicated, and Xu Xing'an didn't have any reason to step in and disturb a small company.
Xu Xiwan lowered his head in thought, relaxed his brows, and sneered, "He's just guarding against me."
"We have been keeping a low profile since we returned to China, and we haven't made any big moves. Besides, with such a small company, how could he suddenly follow us?"
"Xu Xing'an is irritable and has no plan. How could he think of these twists and turns? It's probably because someone is fanning the flames in his ear and making suggestions."
"What now?"
"Nothing to do, just go ahead with the original plan."
Xue Qushuang seemed a little hesitant, "But isn't this just a wedding dress for Xu Xing'an?"
Xu Xiwan smiled calmly, "Do you think that without Xu Xing'an, we wouldn't be making wedding dresses for others? Xu Taihong had no intention of letting me get close to the core business of the Xu family, otherwise he wouldn't have put me here."
The branch where Xu Xiwan works is mainly responsible for the management of procurement. It is a bit oily and far away from the core industry of the Xu family. It is basically the pension department of the Xu family. It has been losing money for several quarters in a row. Everyone knows what happened. Everyone knows It's fine if you don't declare it.
Xue Qushuang said: "Senior sister, you have been working on this order for two months without sleep. Seeing that the company has stopped losses this quarter, I am not reconciled to handing over the credit to others."
"Don't forget, I'm just a deputy, and it's not up to me to calculate my profits and losses." Xu Xiwan didn't seem to care very much, and smiled lightly, "Don't be impatient, Xu Xing'an is just giving me this time." This is a warning, I didn’t intend to really deal with me, the Patriarch of the Xu family is surrounded by tigers and wolves, no matter how hard he is, Xu Xing’an’s number one enemy will never be us, I betrayed him today, he took my favor, next time something will happen , naturally you have to remember me well, the snipe and the clam fight for the fisherman's profit, and you and I just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight."
Xue Qushuang said: "Understood. I have finished my work here, and Xu Xing'an will take over the rest, and I can go back tomorrow. It's getting late, sister, you should go to bed early."
"it is good."
After closing the line, Xu Xiwan didn't move. He stood leaning against the balcony for a while, his eyes were dim, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Because Xue Qushuang's phone call was interrupted like this, it would be half an hour before Xu Xiwan remembered Lin Xing again.
Xu Xi looked at the wall clock at night, it was broken, and she let the child freeze outside for half an hour, she didn't dare to delay, she lifted her long legs, walked to the entrance in three steps at a time, and opened the door, which is rare Somewhat hurried, he opened the door but did not see Lin Xing, and did not know where the child ran off in a fit of anger.
so troublesome.Xu Xi put on his shoes at night and didn't even bother to wear his coat. He put his elbows on and was about to go out to find someone. As soon as he left the house, he found a lot of things at the door. He thought someone put the garbage at his door. Looking again, it turned out to be a person.
It was a child, curled up at the door of Xu Xiwan's house, the corridor was very close, and she could hear her weak breathing after she was asleep.
Xu Xiwan squatted down halfway, pulled down the child's hood a little, and saw her face clearly, it was indeed Lin Xing.
Lin Xing has been asleep for a long time, except for the slight movement of the tourmaline that can make people see that she is breathing, there is no other way to tell that she is alive.
Like a broken doll thrown away.
Xu Xiwan stretched out his hand, and lightly touched Lin Xing's face with the back of his hand, it was very cold.
No fighting, no snatching, no crying, no fuss, I really don't know how this child has lived to such a big age.
Moreover, she is very stubborn, unwilling to admit her mistakes at all, she would rather sleep outside and suffer from the cold than take the initiative to have a soft night with Xu Xi.
This is exactly the same as Lin Ling.
Xu Xiwan sighed slightly, bent down, grabbed Lin Xing's back and calf with his arms, and lifted Lin Xing up from the cold ground with gentle movements.
The six-year-old child is incredibly light, holding it in his hands like a small skeleton, the bones are pinched against Xu Xiwan's arm, and it has no weight at all.Xu Xiwan has never raised a child, but she has only seen other people's children from afar when they were five or six years old. His child has no flesh on his body except skin and bones. Is this normal after all?
Before Xu Xiwan left Jinling, Xue Qushuang asked someone to tidy up a bedroom for Lin Xing. The bedroom was not big. When Xue Qushuang found out that it was a girl, he specially asked someone to decorate it very warmly. The wallpaper, tables, chairs and beds were mainly in light pink. The basic tone, especially the bed, is like a princess bed in a fairy tale. The sheets, bedding and pillows are all pink, and even small things like lamp cotton slippers are pink. Xue Qushuang came to talk to Xu after finishing the arrangement Xi Wan asked for credit and asked how the arrangement went.
Xu Xiwan couldn't see anything, it was just a room full of pink, which made people feel dizzy.
"Now kids like this?" Xu Xiwan asked.
"Don't worry, from ancient times to the present, as long as it is a little girl, there is no one who doesn't like pink princess style."
Xu Xiwan was noncommittal, but it's all done, so let's do it.
Xu Xiwan came back with Lin Xing in his arms, and carried Lin Xing into the pink bedroom. He pulled out a hand and pressed the switch on the wall. The bedroom lit up instantly. Still rolled her eyes for a while.
Xu Xiwan put Lin Xing on the bed and covered her with a quilt.
There was a row of plush toys on the bed, Lin Xing was lying in it, it didn't match at all, she was dirty, like an old toy thrown away by someone, just put it together with a new toy.
The bed was soft and comfortable, with a sweet fragrance, Lin Xing seemed to feel it, the little dirty hand grabbed the corner of the quilt, and arched into the quilt, almost buried his whole face in the quilt.
What a dream I've never had before, Lin Xing thought.
Seeing that she was sleeping soundly at night, Xu Xi didn't have any bad habits like sleeping in bed, so he turned off the light for her and went back to sleep.
Xu Xi didn't go to bed until more than two o'clock in the morning, but she woke up very early the next day. She lived a regular life and had no other problems except that she liked to smoke when she was upset.After Xu Xiwan got up, he went to Lin Xing's room to take a look. Lin Xing was still sleeping, so Xu Xiwan didn't call her. After washing, he took bread and milk from the refrigerator, cleaned up after eating, and left it for Lin Xing. I ordered a copy and checked the time. It was exactly eight o'clock, and I was about to go out to the company. Before leaving, I thought about it and left a note for Lin Xing:
"Breakfast is on the table. I finish it all. I order takeaway at noon. There is some change in the TV cabinet. I'll be home at six in the evening."
Lin Xing's bedroom had the curtains drawn, so she couldn't feel the light outside. She slept until after nine o'clock and woke up once in a daze, but she didn't hear the alarm clock that threatened to kill her, and she didn't hear her aunt cursing and telling her to get up quickly, thinking that it was still before dawn. In the morning, I continued to sleep next to the pillow, and woke up naturally after twelve o'clock, rubbing my eyes and sitting up, thinking that this night is really long, let myself sleep well.
After rubbing away the drowsiness and becoming sober, Lin Xing remembered that something was wrong. She looked around and thought blankly, where is this place?Look at the quilt covering her body again, it is new and beautiful, but the edge of the quilt has been rubbed around the gray edge, it was dirty by her.
Lin Xing was so excited that he rolled and crawled out of the bed. When he got out of bed, he tripped over the quilt and fell out of the bed with his head down. There was a thick blanket on the floor, but she still bumped hard.Lin Xing gritted his teeth in pain, he didn't have time to worry about being hit on the head, he just hugged his knees and huddled in the corner of the wall, tears streaming down his face.
My aunt was about to get angry again, Lin Xing touched his arm, the scars from last time my aunt pulled out the branches with a broom were still not healed.
Pull up the sleeves and pull up the thin bamboo branches, and there is a red mark in one stroke. Lin Xing's arm is smashed and bloody.
It hurts.
Both arms were on fire, and she couldn't turn over or sleep for several days.
But this time it wasn't her fault, Lin Xing thought with tears in his eyes, she had already slept obediently outside the room, and didn't come in at all, how could she be sleeping on the bed again?Or such a comfortable new bed and new quilt?Now it's all right, I don't know whose prank it is, I want to see myself being beaten.
Is it that pretty woman?She doesn't like herself, so she depends on being beaten.So beautiful, yet so bad.
If Lin Xing was older, she would know a word called vicious, but now she only knows bad, what is worse than bad?Probably bad.
What a bad, bad, beautiful woman.
"I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong..." Lin Xing cried so hard that he didn't forget to admit his mistake in a low voice.
Since she could speak, the first thing she learned was to admit her mistakes. After so many years of speaking, it became instinctive.
Xu Xi got up late, ready to open the door for Lin Xing and let her in, but just as she stood up, the phone rang.Xu Xiwan saw that it was Xue Qushuang who called. Xue Qushuang has always been measured. If it wasn't for something serious, he would never have called Xu Xiwan at this time. Xu Xiwan didn't dare to delay, so he answered it quickly.
