"Can you tell me why?" Lu Jingcheng didn't show any surprise as if he expected her to answer like this, but just blinked, his brown eagle eyes still staring at her calmly. "Uh..." Xu Nianyi was a little hesitant, she wasn't sure if she should really tell the truth in the face of a man who had been in the underworld and had a vicious hand.
But when he saw that his eyes were extremely calm, without the slightest bit of ruthlessness, his vigilance eased a lot, and he replied sincerely: "There are many reasons, for example, you used to be Xu Fei's ex-boyfriend, of course maybe not, but you guys I am Xu Fei's deadly enemy, and you were involved in the plot against me three years ago. Another example is that you are a rich man, and I am just an ordinary person. It would be nice to have a friend like me It won't help at all, it will only cause you trouble." She said a few reasons at random, but they were all from her heart. .
Li Tianyu's calm eyes became turbulent, and he asked, "Do you take these things seriously? As far as I know, aren't you and Han Xu good friends?"
"Han Xu is different, he is a colleague of our company, and he-" Xu Nianyi suddenly felt something wrong in the middle of speaking, and swallowed the second half of the sentence again.
"Is he still transferring some of the company's shares he owns to you?" Li Tianyu said unhurriedly.
"Mr. Li, what do you mean?" Xu Nianyi opened his eyes wide and looked at him, and his delicate eyebrows were slightly frowned, "I took his shares not because I was greedy for money, but because I didn't want to look at his company. I was crushed by Shao Jun. I became friends with him entirely because I admire his character. He is a person who is very considerate of others. He has a sense of responsibility and love. He is different from other rich second-generation children. .”
"Miss Xu, don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else." Li Tianyu quickly sat up straight and began to explain, speaking faster, "I just think that if you want to be friends with you, you need to be your colleague first, then I also I can transfer the shares of my company to you, just ask as much as you want."
"In your eyes, do I love money that much?" Xu Nianyi frowned even deeper, "If Mr. Li continues to chat like this, then I will leave." stood up.
"Miss Xu, I don't mean anything else. I just want to make friends with Miss Xu. Maybe my expression is wrong." Seeing her get up, Li Tianyu also stood up with him, with a faint anxiety on his resolute face. "Please don't mind what I just said."
"It's very troublesome to be friends with me, Mr. Li is not afraid of trouble?" Xu Nianyi's frown gradually smoothed away.
With a nonchalant expression on his face, Li Tianyu said lightly: "I have almost only done two things in my life. One is to make trouble, and the other is to solve trouble. So I am never afraid of trouble."
"That-that friends have to keep each other's secrets, can you do it?" She looked at him suspiciously. She doesn't fully trust the man.
Li Tianyu stretched out his right hand and turned over his palm. There was a striking scar in his palm that was five centimeters long. He lowered his eyes, looked at the scar in his palm, and said in a serious tone, "This is stabbed with a saber. The whole palm of my hand was nailed to the table, and the person who did it just wanted to get the whereabouts of one of my friends from me, but I didn't say anything, and I got this scar."
Seeing the scar on his palm, Xu Nianyi was in awe.
She used to have a deep understanding of what it feels like to extract a confession by torture.
But it didn't reach this level, there was no scar left on her body. However, Li Tianyu's palm left such a deep scar, one can imagine the tragic state of his hand at that time.
Few people can bear the taste of a sharp knife piercing the bone, and he can still keep his mouth shut under torture to extract a confession, which shows his strong willpower and his love for love.
"Friends enough!" Xu Nianyi couldn't help but raised his hand and gave him a thumbs up, "In that case, I, Xu Nianyi, made Mr. Li my friend."
The moment Xu Nianyi uttered these words, Li Tianyu's face flashed a gleam of joy, but it quickly disappeared, and that face returned to its calm iceberg state.
"It's a great honor." Li Tianyu bent slightly, and extended his hand to Xu Nianyi.
Xu Nianyi stretched out his hand and patted Li Tianyu's palm, raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile: "Since we are friends, I have a secret to share with you, but you must keep it secret for me, how about it?" ?”
Li Tianyu raised his eyebrows, "Okay, tell me."
"I have a problem with Shao Jun. In fact, I live right across from you now." She lowered her head a little embarrassed and told the truth.
"Did you quarrel?" Li Tianyu asked coolly, without any surprise in his tone.
A look of disappointment appeared on Xu Nianyi's face, and he said in a low voice: "Actually, it's not true, anyway, I can't tell you clearly, I want to be alone for a while, so if he asks you, don't Just tell him where I am."
"Okay, this is no problem, I will not say it." Li Tianyu promised immediately.
"That's great! Thank you, Mr. Li."
"Since we are friends, I don't think you should call me Mr. or Miss? If you don't mind, you can call me Brother Li. How about I ask you to read one?"
"Alright, but I don't think I can stay in Xia Hai for long. You must have heard about my mother. As long as her matter comes to fruition, I will leave Xia Hai."
Li Tianyu was slightly taken aback, "Where are you going?"
Xu Nianyi shook his head, and said in a low voice, "I haven't made up my mind yet, just leave Xia Hai. I'm already a little tired of this kind of life. I want to find a place where no one knows me and start over. You don’t need to have a lot of money, as long as you can live happily.”
Seeing the longing in Xu Nian's eyes, Li Tianyu fell silent. A sentence was always circling in my heart, but I never said it.
"That's it? I have to go out and find a job to support my life." Xu Nian stood up and said goodbye to Li Tianyu.
Li Tianyu stood up and said: "I will think of a way to see if I can help with my aunt's affairs. As for work, I don't think it is necessary."
After finishing speaking, Li Tianyu took out a card from his pocket, "There is 100,000 yuan in this card, you can use it first. Since you are willing, then I will be your friend and accept this card. I can't let My friends suffer, and if this kind of thing spreads, someone will laugh at me."
Xu Nianyi gently pushed Li Tianyu's card back, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, but forget it, I don't take money casually."
"Take it, even if I borrow it from you, you will pay me back when you have money."
Li Tianyu handed the card to Xu Nianyi again.
Xu Nian smiled and pushed back again, but this time he turned around and left without saying anything.
"Nian Yi—" Li Tianyu called her in a low voice.
She didn't look back, and continued to walk towards the door: "Goodbye, Brother Li, I still have to look for a job, remember to keep it a secret." After she finished speaking, she opened the door and walked out without looking back...
In the large living room, Li Tianyu stood quietly on the spot, staring at Xu Nianyi's leaving back. After a long time, his thin lips curled up slightly, and a meaningful smile flashed across his face.
"Nian Yi, I finally know why Shao Jun likes you."
*
After walking around the streets, Xu Nianyi finally found a job as a shopping guide in a daily chemical store. After passing the interview, Xu Nianyi was told that he could come to work tomorrow.
After finding a job, Xu Nianyi's heart gradually became more at ease. The next thing to do was to wait until the court hearing of his mother's case.
She spent a hundred yuan to buy an elderly mobile phone, sat in the bedroom of the apartment, and called Han Xu.
Han Xu was very pleasantly surprised when he heard Xu Nianyi's voice, "Nianyi, where are you? Shao Jun looked for you everywhere like crazy, what happened between you two?"
Xu Nianyi's heart tightened, and he said in a low voice: "Han Xu, don't ask. If you still consider me a friend, don't tell him about my contact. I want to calm down for a while."
"Are you rich? Are you okay in life?"
"No problem, you don't have to worry about these, I just want to ask how my mother is doing? When can I see her?"
"Shao Jun has already applied to the police for a mental illness identification. As long as my aunt can identify a mental illness, then she may be exempted from criminal punishment. My lawyer has now formed a lawyer team with Shao Jun's lawyer. All the preparations have been completed. it is done."
"I miss her so much, I really want to see her, and I don't know what she has become these days..." Xu Nianyi's voice became lower and lower, and finally turned into a low sob.
"Read one, don't cry, you know, it's impossible to see her before the final verdict of the case, but we can create an opportunity to go to that hospital to see her on the day of her appraisal, but the time will vary very short."
Xu Nian stopped crying immediately, "Is it really possible? When?"
"The exact time has not come down, but if there is any news, I will notify you immediately. Don't turn off your mobile phone. I will call you when I get a message."
"Well, thank you Han Xu!"
"Nian Yi, I told you a long time ago that we don't need to thank each other. Please pay attention to safety and call me anytime you need anything."
"Well, I will, but please don't tell Shao Jun."
Han Xu was silent for a while, "Okay, I will keep it a secret for you. But I still hope you think about it, because I can see that Shao Jun really loves you."
Xu Nianyi hummed briefly and hung up the phone.
"Shao Jun, I'm sorry, I really don't know how to face you." Xu Nianyi murmured, looking out the window at the bustling city full of lights and feasting, and fell into a deep bewilderment.
Boom—
There were two knocks on the door, Xu Nian came to his senses and walked over to open the door.
Li Tianyu held a bottle of French champagne in one hand and two goblets in the other.
"Do you have time to read one? Have a drink or two with me." He said while raising the French champagne in his hand.
"Of course there is time, but I don't want to drink."
"It's just champagne, it's fine." Li Tianyu walked to the sofa and sat down, poured a glass for Xu Nianyi.
"Is there anything to celebrate? As far as I know champagne is for celebration."
Li Tianyu took a sip of the golden wine, frowned and thought for a while and said, "To celebrate Li Tianyu and Xu Nianyi becoming friends, is this okay?"
Xu Nian laughed twice, "Your reason is very interesting."
Li Tianyu put down his wine glass, and said deeply: "When I was young, I was often beaten by my dad. Every time he hit me, he was very hard. I was very young and very afraid of pain, so I thought of a good way , that is, as long as I see that he is going to hit me, I will first steal half of his bottle of vodka, you know it is strong alcohol, after I drink it, I am numb () all over, so no matter how he hits me, it doesn’t hurt .”
"Ah? Really? Then why do you get beaten every time?"
"Basically because I stole his wine."
Xu Nian was taken aback for a moment, then pointed at Li Tianyu and laughed.
"Brother Li, you are too humorous..." Xu Nianyi looked at Li Tianyu's serious face, and his smile trembled wildly.
Li Tianyu raised the corners of his mouth in a rare way, and showed a shy smile, "Nian Yi, you really look beautiful when you smile, so don't worry about it in the future."
Xu Nianyi looked at Li Tianyu in surprise, "Brother Li...you...you can actually laugh
Li Tianyu's face turned red slightly, and then he returned to the frosty face that remained unchanged in his later years, "Did I laugh? You read it wrong.
