I loved you once, the sun and the moon bear witness

Xu Shiting pulled her behind him, protected her with his tall body, and said to Shang Lin:
"How can you treat women with such a rude attitude? Women are used to hurt, you can't force her, let alone control her casually."

This person is the god sent by the heaven to save her, right?

Liu Ying has been suppressed under Shang Rin's shadow for so long, and for the first time, she felt an indescribable joy, especially seeing Shang Rin's angry face, Liu Ying couldn't help it. Live stealthily.

"Xu Shiting, don't meddle in your own business!"

"Shang Lin, I have to take care of this nosy business."

"Xu Shiting, we are friends..."

"Just because we are friends, I can't let you treat her like this."

"Xu Shiting!"

……

Shang Lin roared angrily on the spot.

However, Xu Shiting turned around directly, completely ignoring him, and instead said to Liu Ying in a gentlemanly manner:

"Yingying, can I buy you a cup of coffee, let's talk alone for a while?"

Shang Rin roared violently behind him:
"no!"

But Liu Ying gave Xu Shiting a bright smile:

"Okay, then let's make an appointment after I get off work in the afternoon, do you think it's okay?"

Xu Shiting raised his eyebrows:
"Of course, at 05:30 in the afternoon, I'll come and wait for you, see you soon."

Liu Ying was surprised, and her tone was mischievous and relaxed: "Ah, how do you know that I leave work at 05:30?"

Xu Shiting smiled softly: "Of course I know, it's called a tacit understanding."

Liu Ying nodded with a smile, turned around and walked towards the construction site with ease.

Shang Rin's entire face was dark, he directly grabbed Xu Shiting's collar, raised his eyebrows and asked coldly:
"Xu Shiting, did you mean it?"

Xu Shiting didn't give in, and said with a faint smile:
"Shang Lin, if she is sure that she is the person I am looking for, then I will definitely not give in. Even if we are brothers, we have to compete fairly."

Shang Lin became more and more angry, his eyes almost popped out:
"She's my ex-wife..."

Xu Shiting was still smiling faintly:
"You also said that it's just an ex-wife."

Shang Lin ran through [-] grass-mud horses in his heart:
"Xu Shiting, you want to follow Gu Beixi's example and turn against me?"

Xu Shiting smiled and hammered his chest:
"If you turn against me because you can't catch up with a woman, then I have nothing to say."

Shang Lin: "..."

*
After this, Liu Ying was immersed in an inexplicable expectation for the whole day.

She searched around in her mind, but she didn't remember the existence of this person in Shang Rin's past friends list.

Xu Shiting...

Who is he?
She didn't remember any family in Haicheng whose surname was Xu.

However, a man who can make Shang Rin fearful should not be an ordinary person.

Besides being curious, what made her look forward even more was that she found that in Shang Lin's world, there finally appeared a person who could convince Shang Lin.

All of Shang Rin's friends in the past surrendered to him and obeyed his orders, but Xu Shiting was the only one who dared to challenge Shang Rin face to face.

This is amazing.

Who is he?

She hadn't heard of this character before——

Liu Ying was in this inexplicable anticipation until she got off work in the afternoon.

She went to the dressing room to change the work clothes she was wearing. Fortunately, the work clothes were big enough, and she was wearing her own clothes inside.

She tidied up her hair a little bit, put on light makeup, and when she walked out of the construction site, she saw the big black car parked at the door.

When Xu Shiting saw her, he immediately got out of the car, and he waved to her, with a doting smile in his dull smile:

"Yingying, come here—"

Even though they just met each other, this "Yingying" sound made Liu Ying's mood extraordinarily comfortable.

No one had ever called her that except her mother.

Liu Ying immediately walked forward and couldn't help but smile sweetly at Xu Shiting.

Xu Shiting opened the car door for her gentlemanly, and she got into the car, and found that the space inside the car was spacious and comfortable, and there was a pleasant fragrance in the car.

"where are we going?"

Liu Ying asked.

"I'll take you to a place that's small but very warm."

Xu Shiting smiled faintly, and then reported the place name to the driver.

After Liu Ying came to Ningcheng, she went to work non-stop, and she had never wandered outside the three-kilometer radius.

Xu Shiting quickly asked the driver to take them to a small courtyard. The courtyard looked like a farmhouse, but when you walked in, it turned out to be an antique private restaurant.

The restaurant is indeed small, but the decoration is very good, and when they walked into the private room, Liu Ying was even more surprised that there was a quiet small lake outside the window of the private room, and there was an old fishing boat moored on the lake.

Looking from where they were seated, the whole window looked like a picture of tranquility, and Liu Ying suddenly felt her heart quiet down.

Liu Ying couldn't help blurting out: "This kind of place is so elegant, I've never been to such a place to eat."

Xu Shiting raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Shang Rin, he never brought you to such a place?"

Since he asked her that, he must have known about her relationship with Shang Rin in the past.

Liu Ying didn't hide anything, she shook her head:

"He and I never went out alone, let alone eat out together."

In Xu Shiting's eyes, there was a trace of strong surprise.

During the three years when Shang Lin got married, he was abroad, so he didn't pay attention to his life, but every time he returned to China, he did find that Shang Lin had never brought a woman by his side.

Since the relationship in the marriage was so indifferent, how could he warm up to her after the divorce?

Xu Shiting felt that he really wanted to have a good chat with Shang Rin someday.

Xu Shiting handed over the menu distressedly, and said to Liu Ying, "Look at what you want to eat, feel free to order today, and eat whatever you want."

Liu Ying took the menu that Xu Shiting handed over, without any excuses, and quickly ordered a few of her favorite dishes.

Probably because of the private restaurant, the food here was served very quickly. It didn't take long for them to place the order, and all the dishes were served.

This was originally the first time they had dinner together, but Liu Ying and Xu Shiting chatted very speculatively. The two talked about many topics, and they even talked about their childhood.

Liu Ying hadn't met such a close friend for a long time, she unconsciously talked a lot about herself.

She told Xu Shiting that her mother left when she was very young, and she also told him that not long after her mother left, her stepmother Wang Mengqin brought Liu Qin into the house.

Those grievances and sufferings in the world that were hidden in her heart and were difficult to express easily, she didn't know why, but she easily expressed them in front of Xu Shiting.

And when she heard her talking about this, Xu Shiting, in addition to listening attentively, also silently put vegetables in her bowl...

Liu Ying hadn't felt such warmth for a long time.

After eating this meal, her heart was so warm that when Xu Shiting sent her to the door, she was still in a daze.

"If you are unhappy in the future, you can call me. I am willing to be your most loyal listener."

Xu Shiting handed the business card to her again, and said to her with a smile.

"Okay, thank you, nice to meet you too."

Liu Ying smiled slightly, put away Xu Shiting's business card and put it in her bag, then waved towards Xu Shiting.

"Just came back? Why did you two go?"

Just as Liu Ying was about to go upstairs, suddenly, Shang Lin's strange voice came from behind her.

She subconsciously turned around and saw Shang Lin wearing a white casual outfit, leaning lazily on the door frame of the apartment door, looking at the two of them angrily, as if wishing to swallow her alive.
