Chapter 118
Xia Shi had dinner at Zhao Weiwei's house and chatted with her for a long time.
It was getting late, so we took the car back to Dai Rong.
She was afraid that Xiao Jing would think too much, so she asked Zhao Weiwei not to tell him about Xiao Yi and that she now lived in Dai Rong.
In fact, Xia Yunjing had already noticed that something was wrong with Mommy today, so he was considerate and didn't ask any more questions. He was going to talk to Aunt Weiwei in private.
Dai Rong Villa.
Lu Nanshen came back from the company at five o'clock.
He was sitting on the sofa in the living room, and there was an exquisite gift box on the coffee table.
"Boom-"
The European-style hanging clock on the wall has the hour hand at 10.
It's already ten o'clock, Xia Shi hasn't come back yet?
Lu Nanchen had never waited for someone for so long. He tugged on his tie irritably and frowned slightly.
He took the gift box with one of his beautiful and slender hands and checked it over and over again to make sure that the contents inside would please the girl before closing it again.
Another half hour passed, and Lu Nanchen became even more irritable.
He stood up and picked up the things on the table, preparing to catch Xia Shi back in person. At this time, there was a sound of opening the door.
Lu Nanchen looked over and saw Xia Shi walking in wearing a begonia-colored long skirt and high heels. The two of them looked at each other, and neither of them spoke for a moment.
Xia Shi came to his senses first: "Aren't you asleep yet?"
Not only did I not sleep, I also didn’t eat.
Lu Nanchen's mind was in a mess at the moment: "Where have you been? Why are you back now?"
"Oh, I went to my best friend's house for dinner." Xia Shi put on a pair of slippers and walked in, then passed Lu Nanchen and prepared to walk upstairs to his room.
She wondered, didn't he always send people to follow her?
More questions.
Lu Nanchen couldn't hold back any longer, and his tall figure stood in front of her.
"Why don't you ask me, where have you been today? What have you done?"
"What else can you do, but go to work?"
Lu Nanchen used to work on weekends and holidays, so she didn't need to ask.
Xia Shi was a little confused, what was wrong with him.
Facing the woman's clear gaze, Lu Nanchen didn't know why. He wanted to be angry, but couldn't.
He approached Xia Shi and handed the gift box to Xia Shi.
"A gift from a corporate client."
Xia Shi looked at the gift in his hand and was stunned for a while, but did not pick it up.
In the past, every time Lu Nanchen did something wrong, he would always send her away with things given by the company's customers.
On one of these occasions, she was pushed into the swimming pool by Shen Ze's men and almost drowned. Her eardrums bulged and she almost lost her hearing.
Finally, he gave her a necklace and said, "Don't go to those places in the future, and nothing will happen to her."
At that time, it was the first time Xia Shi received a gift from Lu Nanchen. She was happy for a long, long time...
Later, whenever she was hurt, no matter what it was, he would send her away with gifts.
And his friend said in front of him: "A woman like her can be happy for a long time with a few expensive gifts."
"She is no different from her mother. They both regard wealth as life."
When she heard this, she cried and returned all the gifts Lu Nanchen had given her in the past in front of him.
That day Lu Nanchen pinched her hand and was very angry, "Why are you making such a fuss! If you don't want it, you won't do it again!"
From then on, Lu Nanchen really stopped even doing superficial things.
No matter whether she was hurt or insulted, he had no words of comfort and no more gifts.
After her recent contact with Lu Nanchen, past memories came flooding in like running water, and she couldn't forget them even if she wanted to.
Xia Shi retracted his thoughts: "I don't want it."
