What puzzled Liu Xun was why Li Mengyao would speak for him? This didn't make sense at all. She was just Chen Mengxi's friend. Chen Mengxi hadn't even spoken yet, so why would she help him
Liu Xun could observe every detail carefully, and he discovered that when Li Mengyao knew his name, she changed. Although Liu Xun and Li Mengyao had not been together for a long time, it was enough for him to notice this subtle change.
At this time, Cheng Tianlin laughed in anger and did not refute. It was not that he did not want to refute, but he was afraid. He naturally knew Li Mengyao's background, and he also understood the principle that the people should not fight against the officials, not to mention that they were from the military region.
The second generation of rich people can never compare to the second generation of officials. This is the truth of this society. The protective mentality of soldiers is well known to everyone.
"Okay, sorry, I was too aggressive just now." Cheng Tianlin is a person who knows how to be patient and knows when to advance and when to retreat. It is precisely because of this that Liu Xun ignored him and did not want to cause himself unnecessary trouble.
Cheng Tianlin was polite again and then left the mall with the two women. After Cheng Tianlin left, Li Mengyao secretly shook her head and sighed.
She still didn't know whether Liu Xun was that person, but she couldn't take the gamble, so she acted with the mentality of "killing three thousand by mistake and never letting one go". If Liu Xun was really that person, she would never allow others to disrespect him.
"Let's go." Chen Mengxi's expression was a little forced, and she was obviously still worried about what happened just now. She was thinking, should she cut off her relationship with Liu Xun after tomorrow's dinner? That way, even if someone said something similar to before, it would have nothing to do with her.
Chen Mengxi was afraid. She was afraid that her relationship with Liu Xun would be known to everyone one day. She also had a strong sense of self-esteem and would not allow the news of her relationship with a migrant worker to become a topic of conversation among celebrities after dinner.
After such a commotion, the three of them stopped talking. Everyone had their own thoughts in their minds, and Liu Xun wanted to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible. Of course, this was not because he was afraid of trouble, but because he did not want to cause trouble.
Liu Xun casually picked out an Armani suit and prepared for tomorrow's dinner, while Chen Mengxi also hastily paid the bill and wanted to leave here quickly because she felt she needed quiet time.
"Excuse me, sir. Could you please try it on yourself and leave us some valuable suggestions so that we can report back to our headquarters?" But just as the three were about to leave, the salesperson's words made them pause.
"Of course, if it's inconvenient sir..." The saleswoman saw the expressions of the three people and immediately showed a professional smile, but before she finished speaking, Liu Xun interrupted and said, "If this can help you, I'm happy to do it."
"Then thank you very much, sir. Please come this way." In this high-end shopping mall, every piece of clothing sold and every customer feedback represents a source of income, so the salesperson naturally has to seize every opportunity.
"Okay then." Liu Xun usually wouldn't refuse these little things that were within his ability, so he walked towards the changing room alone.
"I really don't know how to write the word 'shameful'." Chen Mengxi was a little angry at this time, but it was not easy to get angry. He could only stomp his feet and wait with Li Mengyao.
When Liu Xun changed into a suit and came out, both the clothing clerk and Li Mengyao were shocked. Liu Xun in a suit exuded an unnatural and intimidating aura, as if he was a born aristocrat.
Of course, the only flaw was the military shirt underneath the suit. Although Chen Mengxi was a little surprised, he was angry and didn't say anything.
"What a spirited young man! Xiaoli, go get that black shirt." The speaker was the owner of the store, a woman in her thirties. Although she was already thirty years old, she still had charm.
Seeing this, Liu Xun shook his head and smiled. Before he could say anything, Chen Mengxi's impatient words came over: "No need, he doesn't need to wear this shirt."
Chen Mengxi said this not because he was short of money, but because he didn't want to stay in this place for even a second.
"It's okay, just consider this shirt as a gift from me to this brother." The woman took the shirt herself and handed it to Liu Xun. Liu Xun shrugged, took off the shirt, and then returned the military uniform to Li Mengyao.
But just as Liu Xun took off his shirt, the scars on his body made everyone present change their expressions. The 30-year-old female shop owner licked her lips unconsciously.
In the minds of girls of her age, what is a real man? What attracts them is no longer those handsome boys, but mysterious men with scars and stories.
The muscles on his chest were like a dormant dragon, and his six abdominal muscles were clearly visible, but under the cover of his trousers, the seventh and eighth abdominal muscles were faintly visible.
The pit-like scars, knife wounds and various injuries on his body made the passers-by around him secretly gasp in amazement. At this time, Li Mengyao's pupils contracted and her eyes were fixed on a pit-like scar on Liu Xun's back.
The shock of this moment also disappeared the moment Liu Xun put on the shirt, but at this time, everyone who looked at Liu Xun had a solemn look in their eyes. What kind of person could have such a scar? Although they didn't know, they knew that this person was definitely not an ordinary person.
Li Mengyao took a deep breath, then quickly walked to Liu Xun, took out a card from her bag, handed it to the salesperson, looked at the female shop owner and said, "I'm sorry, you should pay the money, after all, we are strangers."
"But I have already said what I want to say, miss. Do you want me to go back on my word?" The female owner smiled softly and looked at Li Mengyao.
If Liu Xun just now only initially attracted the female shop owner, then Liu Xun now was enough to drive her completely crazy. She was a woman who lost her husband at an early age. At this age, one can imagine the attraction of a man like Liu Xun to her, just like the attraction of a stunningly beautiful woman to a man.
Li Mengyao smiled sweetly and said forcefully: "If you don't want to have unnecessary trouble, I advise you to swipe your card quickly. This man doesn't need your charity at all, and... you don't deserve it."
After Li Mengyao finished speaking, the woman's face changed, but she smiled without saying anything, because although she didn't know who Li Mengyao was, judging from the fact that Cheng Tianlin didn't dare to provoke Li Mengyao just now, she couldn't afford to provoke this person.
"Sister, I'm not a person who is greedy for small gains. You should just take the money." Liu Xun said softly at this time. Although he didn't understand why Li Mengyao's reaction was so intense, he didn't ask too much.
"Okay then, Xiaoli, swipe the card."
The female shop owner still had a smile on her face. After the salesperson swiped the card, Liu Xun and the other two left.
At this time, Chen Mengxi was also full of doubts. What happened to her best friend? Why was she so supportive of Liu Xun? And this reaction seemed a little too intense, right? It was as if Liu Xun was her boyfriend.
Thinking of this, Chen Mengxi pulled Li Mengyao aside and asked softly: "What's wrong with you? Are you crazy? It's ok for you to speak up for him, but you even used your own money to buy him a shirt. That shirt must have cost you half a year's allowance, right?"
Li Mengyao smiled when she heard this, and then took Chen Mengxi's hands. A hint of hesitation appeared on her beautiful face. After a moment, she asked softly: "Mengxi, you and him are just in a contractual relationship, right?"
"Yeah, what's wrong? You wouldn't be..." Chen Mengxi nodded, and then an expression appeared on his face as if he had seen the end of the world.
"Yeah." Li Mengyao nodded, a hint of shyness appeared on her cheeks. Seeing this, Chen Mengxi immediately shook his head and said, "Oh my God, Mengyao, you are not serious, are you? He is just a migrant worker, how could you be with him..."
Li Mengyao bit her lips lightly but said nothing. When she saw the scar on Liu Xun's back, she had confirmed her guess. Liu Xun... was the man she had been waiting for three years.
"Since you have nothing to do with him, I have to intervene." Li Mengyao glanced at Liu Xun and said to Li Mengyao.
"It's up to you. Love is your freedom! After the dinner tomorrow, he and I will have nothing to do with each other anymore." Chen Mengxi said with a chuckle, but for some reason, she felt a little lost when she said that Liu Xun had nothing to do with her anymore.
"Okay, then I won't go to the disco tonight. My brother is back and I have to go home." Although she was sure in her heart, Li Mengyao still had to go home to ask her brother whether Liu Xun was that person.
"Ah, if you're not going tonight, then I won't go either. I'd better have a good sleep and think about how to deal with my dad tomorrow." Chen Mengxi knew that Li Tengwei hadn't been home for several months. Now that he finally came home, she naturally couldn't ask Li Mengyao to accompany her.
After sending Chen Mengxi and Liu Xun back to the hotel, Li Mengyao went to the military area. About an hour later, it was already dark.
Li Mengyao opened the door and saw a young man sitting on the sofa in front of her. The young man had clear eyes and a handsome face, but he looked intimidating without even getting angry.
The young man was Li Tengwei, with the conspicuous rank of lieutenant colonel hanging on the shoulder of his brand new military uniform. He was looking out the door with a smile.
"Brother..." Li Mengyao smiled and walked towards Li Tengwei. Li Tengwei smiled and said, "Tell me, why did you call me back this time?"
"Can't I ask you to go home if nothing happens?" Li Mengyao became unhappy when she heard this.
"Okay, I've asked dad, and he doesn't even know I came back this time. If it's not you, little girl, who else could it be?" Although Li Tengwei was the regiment commander of the Nanjing Military Region, he had no way to deal with his sister.
"Brother, take a look and see if this guy is the one? His date of birth is 1989, 0824." Li Mengyao stuck out her tongue, and then handed the mobile phone that had secretly taken the photo of Liu Xun to Li Tengwei.
"Who is it? That person? Who is that person?" Li Tengwei shook his head and smiled, then took the phone. However, the moment he saw the photo, his expression changed drastically, and he asked in a low voice: "Where did you see him?" (To be continued)
