contract marriage

The moment the door was pushed open, the strong smell of cigarettes and alcohol was as pungent as a sewer that was suddenly opened. Li Dongna resisted the urge to turn around and leave, took a deep breath outside the door, frowning and striding forward went into the house.

The room was quiet, Li Dongna's high-heeled shoes stepped hard on the wooden floor and made a harsh clicking sound, and occasionally kicked the wine bottles lying on the ground, she almost fell down and cursed a few words, fumbled in the dark and turned on the light , Turned on the ventilation equipment in the house again.

"It used to be like this, and it's still like this now. Li Dongming, what else do you have besides escaping?! Drink and drink, and you will torture yourself to death after a little setback. If you really drink to death here, do you still need me to help you?" That person surnamed Tang sent an invitation to attend your funeral?"

The limited-edition Birkin bags were thrown on the sofa in the living room like throwing trash. Li Dongna found a bearded Li Dongming on the balcony of the bedroom. Her lips covered with lipstick were trembling in the cold wind of early winter. She cursed viciously. Looking at his only younger brother lying on the cold ground like a disabled person, his eyes hurt like burning.

Taking off her high heels, Li Dongna dragged her drunk brother from the balcony back to the house, called the doctor, took a basin of hot water from the bathroom, and wiped Li Dongming's face, which smelled of alcohol.

Li Dongming slowly raised his heavy eyelids, his red and bloodshot eyes made Li Dongna's heart tremble, she bit her lower lip: "What are you doing?!"

Li Dongming held his sister Li Dongna's hand to wipe his face, and said a few weak words from his chapped lips: "Sister, he is married."

Li Dongna froze for a moment, but did not speak again.

Probably because he was crazy enough and drunk enough, Li Dongming sat on the bed and was at the mercy of others. After more than an hour, the doctor prescribed some cold medicine and left. The cleaning staff and the housekeeper cleaned up the mess outside the house. Two siblings.

"It's a foregone conclusion. Tang is already married, so you should give up. Dongming, you're only 25 years old, you're still young, and you still have a long way to go in life. Are you still afraid that you won't meet someone better?" Holding a glass of warm water in her hand, Li Dongna handed the water glass to Li Dongming, she pulled a chair and sat beside her, lowered her head and put the pills into the medicine box, "You are always the eldest son of our Li family, the favorite of my father and grandma. The only one I like is you, now that you are back, Dad immediately handed over the company to you, a bright future is waiting for you, why bother yourself for others."

"Sister, you said the same thing a few years ago." Holding the cup in both hands, the warm temperature was transmitted to the dry palms but it was difficult to relieve half of the discomfort in the body. The corners of Li Dongming's lips curled up stiffly.

He believed it, and under the circumstances at that time, there was no other way but to believe it.

He wandered around, ran all over the world, met all kinds of people, some of them had Tang Rui's shadow on them, he drank with them, talked, and even tried to date and have sex with them.

Li Dongming once thought that he could really meet someone who made his heart beat like Li Dongna said. After all, the world is so big, can't there be someone who can replace Tang Rui in the vast sea of ​​people?

On countless mornings where he didn't know where he was, when Li Dongming woke up, he suddenly forgot whether the person who hugged him intimately last night was a man or a woman. He found that he gradually couldn't remember the appearance of those people, and he had a vague impression .

Most of them are tall and tall, with caramel-colored soft hair, caramel-colored eyes covered with a thin layer of transparent ice, and gentle and clear water flowing under the cold and alienated layer of ice...

At first, it was blurred blocks of color, rough pencil lines, and then slowly became clear, and the color blocks and lines merged together until a clear and vivid face appeared in his mind.

"I tried it, and you saw it too." Li Dongming smiled suddenly, looked down at his haggard and depressed shadow in the water glass, and muttered to himself, "Don't want the real people in front of you, why should people pursue possibilities? An illusion that doesn't exist at all."

"Take the medicine and go to sleep," Li Dongna handed the medicine box to her younger brother, "Do you still want to rob someone with Sherland? They are already married, so it's fine if Sherland is an ordinary person, and you can always get what you want with some tricks." Tang Rui snatched it over, but who is Sherland? Their family has a deep background, we can't afford to offend them, and the two of them just got married when they were just getting married, so why are you messing around?"

"In the past two days, someone on the Internet has suddenly turned over and over again a few old things about the company. Although it can't shake our foundation, it has also caused the company's stock price to plummet recently. I think this is probably Sherland's handwriting, knocking Shan Zhenhu secretly warning , why do you provoke Sherland for a man." Fortunately, the rest of the family did not know that Li Dongming had provoked Sherland, otherwise he would be used by the illegitimate son to make a fuss.

Seeing Li Dongming's decadence, Li Dongna hated iron for being weak, but at the same time felt sorry for the younger brother she watched and grew up with. When did Li Dongming, who grew up with a golden spoon in his mouth, be so wronged?But every time it has something to do with that man named Tang Rui.

"This person surnamed Tang is also really capable. What he agreed was a fake marriage. It took less than two months for the fake marriage to become a real marriage."

One Li Dongming, one Sherland, even if that Tang Rui looks good, there are so many beautiful beauties in this world, how can Tang Rui have the ability to make these two men fascinated.

There was a hint of jealousy and sourness in her chest that she didn't want to admit, and Li Dongna said with a bad taste: "On the surface, he looks like a gentleman, but what kind of simple person can climb from the gutter to the branches step by step. It was agreed before. It turned out to be a fake marriage, but on the day from London to Haishi, she took Sherland's car and lived in Sherland's house. Sherland has never had any hobbies in this area. Fascinated like this!"

"Sister! Don't say that about him, Tang Rui is not that kind of person!" Li Dongming shouted.

"Why, I was wrong? I think he is much smarter than you, at least he knows how to climb the big tree of Sherland." Seeing that Li Dongming was really angry, Li Dongna gritted her teeth incessantly. , Regardless of Sanqi 21, he choked back, "That's right, Dad forced you to break up with Tang Rui back then, but what did you do later? You ran around the world, you escaped from reality! If you worked hard all these years Now, with Sherland's current power and wealth, Dad can control you? You can have whatever you want, let alone asking for reunion, Tang Rui posted it himself! Do I still need to ask Sherland for help? "

"Li Dongming, after all these years, you should have understood that only those with big fists have the right to speak. If you continue to be decadent like this, you will not only lose Tang Rui."

With a long sigh, Li Dongna stood up and patted her younger brother on the shoulder: "Dongming, you are my only younger brother, no matter what you choose, I will support you."

"Sister, I know you said this for my own good, and I know what to do."

After Li Dongna left, Li Dongming put the medicine box containing the pills aside, he drank two sips of water, obviously there were no pills in his mouth, but he felt extremely bitter.

He knows it all.

He was just not reconciled.

When Sherland picked up Tang Rui from get off work at night, she said with a mysterious face that she had something to show Tang Rui when she got home. Tang Rui was really worried about what weird clothes Sherland took out of the closet. Sherland simply took him to the study.

After the computer was turned on, a video appeared. The background was the white towering snow-capped mountains and the quaint wooden house in front of the eyes. A handsome middle-aged man and a brown-haired middle-aged beautiful woman appeared in the video, and Shelande sat in a chair Tang Rui suddenly came to his senses, this is Sherland's father and mother!

The two elderly people who are over 40 years old look like they are only in their [-]s, bursts of hearty laughter came from the video, and the two elderly people learned that Sherland had a flash marriage with a man without their knowledge What surprised them was not the flash marriage, but that there was actually one person who could restrain Sherland.

"Xie Lande has inherited his father's merits of being dedicated, he will be a good husband, and he will love you forever, Tang Rui," the charming old Mrs. Xie smiled heartily at the camera, "Although this is my dear Rand, please tell me what I have to say, but believe me, these also come from my heart."

The two old people didn't intend to get involved in the love of the two young people. After the winter, the two elders of the Xie family planned to fly from Canada to Australia. The wedding matters of Xie Lande and Tang Rui were all planned by the two young people themselves.

"When we get old, we will travel around the world like them." Sherland stood behind the chair, supported Tang Rui's shoulders with both hands, and looked at Tang Rui who was still staring at the screen, "OK?"

"Well," Tang Rui nodded, finally looked away from the screen, and murmured, "Your parents are so kind."

"What are my parents, they are also your parents now." Sherland leaned down and kissed the man's lips, "We are already a family, fool."

family.

The chest was warmed by an invisible warm current, Tang Rui pulled Sherland's hands on her shoulders, and gently rubbed her cheek against Sherland's palm, and said with a smile: "Yes, they are our parents."

He turned his head to look at Sherland and asked, "What do your parents like to eat? Tell me first. The two of us got married without saying a word. When our parents come back, we have to cook a meal." Make a good apology."

"They don't care about this, don't worry about it."

"I don't care if they don't care. Hurry up and tell me. I'll take the notes." Tang Rui took a piece of paper and pen as he sat at the desk, just in case there was something he wouldn't I did it, and I have to study hard these few days. After waiting for a long time, I only heard Sherland's low laughter. Tang Rui turned around and stared, "What are you smirking at?"

"You are so kind to them, I'm jealous." Sherland took away the pen and paper from Tang Rui's hand, put Tang Rui's arms with both hands and pushed him down on the large desk, "Feed me first , I'll tell you."
