The paranoid Ling Shao's beloved pet ran away again
Chapter 30 The Thorn in My Heart
Xiao Jinglan's thoughts drifted away, and he recalled the day three years ago.
She was invited to a tea room, where sat a middle-aged man with an imposing manner and a pair of sharp eyes that could see into people's hearts.
It has to be said that as someone who has been in a high position for so many years, the aura of a superior cannot be concealed.
He is Ling Yisheng's father, the head of the Ling family, and also the chairman of the Ling Group at the time. He holds great power and controls the fate of others.
She was also born into a wealthy aristocratic family and grew up in the capital, but she was a flower pampered in a greenhouse. She had never experienced any hardships and could not compare with the sharpness that her elders had acquired naturally after going through hardships.
Both the Ling family and the Xiao family are wealthy families in the capital. Although they are only ranked first and second, there is still a gap between them.
Due to the mutually beneficial relationship of family cooperation, the two families have frequent exchanges, and Xiao Jinglan has met the head of the Ling family before.
"Uncle Ling." Xiao Jinglan was brought here suddenly and had not yet figured out what his intentions were.
Father Ling's eyes were not as kind as usual. They were a little sharp and his tone was cold. "Jinglan, Uncle Ling asked you to come here today because he wanted to talk to you about something."
Xiao Jinglan was keenly aware of something unusual, and his tone became much more polite, "Uncle Ling, if you have anything to say, just say it."
"Okay, then I'll be straight to the point." As he finished speaking, Father Ling began to talk about business.
"Lanlan? Lanlan?"
Seeing Xiao Jinglan in a trance, Yu Qingyan raised her voice and called out a few more words, "Hey, come back to your senses, Xiao Jinglan!"
Xiao Jinglan's eyes moved, he came back to his senses and glanced at Yu Qingyan in front of him, and after a while he opened his mouth to answer.
"Because... Ling Yisheng."
"Because of him?" Yu Qingyan was puzzled when she heard the answer and asked, "Weren't you two on good terms before?"
"It's pretty good." Xiao Jinglan recalled the scene three years ago when a woman ran up to her and showed off her power. She lowered her eyes and suppressed her emotions, "Ling Yisheng... is having an affair."
"Hmm? Are you sure?" Yu Qingyan had seen Ling Yisheng many times and had some contact with him, but she didn't quite believe that he would be such a person.
Xiao Jinglan naturally knew that the man would never do such a thing, but the voice from that night had been lingering in her mind all these years and had become a thorn in her heart.
Even if it's not true, it's worth pondering.
"Tell me in detail what's going on." Yu Qingyan thought of the stories she had heard over the years about the man who was known as the prince of the Beijing circle, and the doubts in her heart grew heavier.
"One night, I called him and a woman answered the phone." Xiao Jinglan said in an indifferent and calm voice.
In fact, this incident was not the main reason why Xiao Jinglan went abroad, but it was a thorn in her heart that she could not let go of.
"Then what?" Yu Qingyan became anxious after hearing this.
"Then I heard their conversation, and I hung up the phone..." Xiao Jinglan was silent for a moment, and did not continue talking. He changed the subject, "Anyway, it was mainly because he went abroad, and my parents also wanted me to separate from him at the time, so I agreed."
"Oh..." When Yu Qingyan heard her mention Xiao's father and mother, her eyes flashed, and she picked up the cup and took a sip calmly.
At first, she was a little puzzled as the Xiao family and the Ling family should have had a good relationship at that time. Why would Xiao's father and mother separate them? But then she thought of something but didn't say it out loud.
"Are you ready to come back now? How are you going to face... him?" Yu Qingyan changed the subject and began to ask about her recent situation.
Speaking of this, Xiao Jinglan felt a little embarrassed, his tone was helpless, and his voice was low, "I... I was brought back by him from abroad."
Yu Qingyan exclaimed, her eyes lit up in an instant, as if she had smelled some gossip, "What? He ran abroad to chase you? And then caught you back?"
"Uh... um." Xiao Jinglan was also helpless. Who knew that the man would be so persistent and go all the way abroad to find her.
"So, where do you live now? His place?" Based on her understanding of Ling Yisheng, Yu Qingyan knew that this was something he could do.
"Yeah." She had guessed most of Xiao Jinglan's affairs, and the only thing left was that matter.
Yu Qingyan asked from the bottom of her heart, "What are your feelings for him now? Do you still want to continue to pester him?"
"If you still have feelings, take this opportunity to ask him clearly when you come back. Otherwise, if you don't want to stay with him, I will help you no matter what." Yu Qingyan took the lead in expressing her opinion without waiting for her to reply, giving Xiao Jinglan spiritual comfort.
The two of them are good sisters who grew up together, and they care about each other the most.
Xiao Jinglan looked at Yu Qingyan who suddenly looked serious and was amused by her fearless expression. He waved his hand casually and said, "It's okay. I will come back sooner or later. As for the place to live, his place is not bad. It's close to the mountains and rivers and quiet."
Xiao Jinglan didn't really want to live with Ling Yisheng. Even if she wanted to live somewhere else, it would definitely not be possible.
Ling Yisheng was the first one to disagree.
Without his permission, there was no point in her hiding anywhere, so she might as well compromise and let him be.
What's more, no matter what, she, Yu Qingyan, could not be implicated.
"Ok."
Yu Qingyan looked at Xiao Jinglan, who had a calm and indifferent expression. Knowing that she knew what was going on, she didn't bother with it any more and changed the subject.
"Let me tell you, a lot of things happened in the capital during the years you were away..."
Xiao Jinglan smiled and listened patiently to her stories about the capital.
……
After coming out of the cafe, the two went shopping in the mall together and bought a lot of things.
Especially Xiao Jinglan.
She didn't want to buy it at first, but she couldn't resist her friend who kept choosing for her, so she paid a large sum of money to have it sent back to her villa.
Just as Xiao Jinglan was about to refuse, Yu Qingyan's face turned stern, and she said in a sarcastic tone as if she had rejected her face, "Oh, you've been abroad for a while, and you've become so arrogant. Now that you're back, even I'm not worthy of you buying things for me? I'm not happy when others ask me to buy things for me. Miss Xiao is really proud of yourself!"
Xiao Jinglan wanted to argue, but was interrupted by her with a cold face. Her domineering and cold look made Xiao Jinglan feel at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Just keep the things I give you if I tell you to!"
Seeing this, Xiao Jinglan had no choice but to let her go.
It’s better not to make her unhappy when you see her for the first time after coming back.
In this way, the two of them strolled around for the whole morning and even went until time for dinner.
Then we found a restaurant outside and had lunch together.
In the afternoon, Yu Qingyan accompanied Xiao Jinglan to buy some daily skin care products, and then called a few sisters in their circle to come out and welcome her.
