The woman glanced at Shanglu resentfully, and left in a huff. A few minutes later, she brought a few rough men to his side again.

She has never been wronged like this, as long as she wants a man, she can get it, but this man didn't know what to do, told her to get out, and even hurt her, until now her wrist is still aching.

"Didn't I tell you to go away?" Shang Lu smelled the pungent fragrance, knew that the woman had returned, and left without mercy.

"You still dare to be arrogant with me?" The woman folded her arms around her chest, her voice became sharper, "Listen clearly to my old lady, this is my old lady's territory, and you are the one who toasts and not eats fine wine!"

The four big men behind her looked fierce, and laughed, "It's only a drunk like him who dares to play a big game, brothers, kill him!"

When he said this, the proprietress did not stop him, but instead made room for him. She wanted to see how long this cold man could pretend.

Shanglu knew that danger was coming, but he drank too much, and his whole body was dizzy. When he saw someone throwing a fist at him, he instinctively ran to hide, but because the movement was too slow, he didn't dodge. Hit him on the arm.

"It's stupid enough to think how capable you are!" The man who hit him swung his fist triumphantly, wanting to punch him again, but there was a scream after he swung it.

Shang Lu held a broken wine bottle with blood in his hand, his eyes were fierce, like a beast facing its prey, he slowly straightened up, looked at the woman through the crowd, "You are looking for death."

Everyone was shocked by his words. The proprietress didn't expect this man to have such an aura. She was so frightened that she couldn't speak for a long time, but then she thought that there were so many of them, so she said ruthlessly: "If you dare to scare me, hit me! I'll call! If something goes wrong, I'll pay for the medical bills."

The old men who were timid and afraid to go up swarmed up.

Shanglu's body wobbled, obviously unable to stand on his feet. He saw people from all directions, but his heels seemed to be filled with lead, so he couldn't move, and he was beaten hard.

The proprietress really thought that this drunkard could do a set of drunken punches here, but he turned out to be blind and imposing, but now he was beaten to the point of holding his head, looking like a stinky stray dog—everyone shouted and beat him.

However, no matter how hard they beat, Shang Lu didn't cry out for pain, nor begged for mercy. He gritted his teeth and endured. Can let this group of people beat him.

"Really resistant." A big man took a sip, looked at the proprietress, and asked, "What should I do?"

She also had a good time watching it, sat at the bar and took a sip of wine, and said charmingly: "Just throw it outside." Then she looked around the circle of customers, and said with a coquettish smile: "Everyone go to the bar for a drink, it's not busy watching , Today's drinks are half price."

The people around heard that the drinks were half price, so they all dispersed, and continued to devote themselves to their confused and chaotic life. After a while, they forgot that there was a man outside who was beaten to half his life.

In this kind of thing, some people want to help but they are powerless, and some people just watch the excitement and find it very interesting. This is the world.

Outside the bar, Shanglu lying on the ground became more awake, the corner of his mouth was broken, which hurt his nerves, he didn't even think about getting up, just lay there, complaining about drinking was useless, he still missed Xu Jingmo very much , I still can't understand her being with Jiang Xia.

After the pain in his body subsided a lot, he moved his fingers, slowly got up from the ground, and staggered towards his car.

When he saw his messy appearance in the mirror, he felt ridiculous, wiped the stains on his face, drove home, parked in the garage, got out of the car, and saw the dazzling scene.

Xu Jingmo was also stunned. Is this still the well-dressed Shanglu who looks majestic?The smile on her face froze for a moment, then slowly faded away.

Jiang Xia froze for a moment, and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are you in such a mess?" He was about to help Shanglu, but was gently pushed away.

Shang Lu looked at him coldly, and asked back: "Shouldn't you explain something to me?"

"I took Jingmo to see a doctor today. I wanted to take you with me, but you weren't here..." Jiang Xia looked at Shanglu with a cold expression, and suddenly felt that it was useless to say anything.

He did go against what he had agreed with Shang Lu, but Xu Jingmo was very happy with him, so what was wrong with him.

"Going to the hospital together for so long?" Shang Lu snorted coldly, and suddenly pulled Xu Jingmo out from behind Jiang Xia, "Don't you feel sorry for me!"

Xu Jingmo was caught suddenly, and she only felt pain in her wrist. She couldn't help but want to break free, "You hurt me, let go!"

Both she and Jiang Xia were right, they just went to see a doctor, and they really couldn’t understand why Shanglu was so angry, the pain in her wrist made her frown, she pushed his hand with the other, and accidentally touched a hand of blood, She froze for a moment, then unconsciously said, "You, let go."

Shanglu snorted, his hand was smashed by that man with a wine bottle, it seemed so ironic now, he got drunk for the woman in front of him, but she chatted and laughed with other men.

He looked at Jiang Xia, with a cold light in his eyes, "Don't you like her? But she is mine." After he finished speaking, he pinched Xu Jingmo's chin with his other hand and kissed her hard.

Xu Jingmo's eyes widened, he tried his best to push him away, slapped him reflexively, and shouted: "Are you crazy!"

There was a loud "pa", and she couldn't believe that she had actually hit Phytophthora. He had just stopped the bleeding from the corner of his mouth, and blood was slowly flowing again.

The change was too fast, Jiang Xia pushed Shanglu, pulled Xu Jingmo behind her, and her expression became heavy, "I admit that I was wrong, but don't you think you have gone too far?"

"Get out of the way." Shang Lu didn't care about the wound on the corner of his mouth, and he didn't want to do this, but seeing her happy with Jiang Xia, and being so unhappy with him, he would be very angry and even jealous Jiang Xia.

Without waiting for Jiang Xia to get out of the way, Xu Jingmo stood up by herself, her face flushed because of anger, "I don't know what you are crazy about, but you are too much, it makes me feel sick."

"Disgusting" The two people were like a heavy hammer, hitting Shanglu's heart hard. He didn't feel it when he was beaten, but now he was so painful that he couldn't breathe.

"Okay, okay." He took a few steps back, with a mocking smile on his face, "Since you think I'm disgusting, then I'll go."

This was a cold war that lasted for several days. As long as Xu Jingmo was there, Shang Lu would never stay. He seemed determined not to talk to her anymore. It wasn't that he didn't want to see her, but his heart ached.

Besides, isn't she the happiest with Jiang Xia?He should be happier if he can't see the disgusting one, as long as she is happy.

In fact, only Jiang Xia knew that Xu Jingmo would be in a daze occasionally, and he didn't smile as happily as before.

"Do you regret it?" Jiang Xia put on a coat for her, and he knew that her eyes were always on Shang Lu's back.

"What do you regret?" She withdrew her gaze and put on her clothes uncomfortably. There was an indescribable emotion in her heart, but she didn't want to say it out.

In the past few days, Jiang Xia has been taking her to see a doctor. She has recovered a lot, and the doctor praised her. She also went to many interesting places with Jiang Xia and ate a lot of delicious food. She is really happy.

But when she was alone, she always felt empty. Looking at Shanglu's back, that feeling would be even stronger. Sometimes she wondered if she had done something wrong, maybe it was serious.

Phytolaca is not as annoying as she said, she just doesn't like being seen through by him at a glance, she puts herself in a transparent but strong box.

Time flies, there have been several heavy snowfalls, and Christmas is coming soon, but Phytolaca is still rarely at home.

He approached Bai Shuxing and Wan Tong, and they all said that he had gone too far. Later, when he thought about it, he was dazzled by jealousy. He was indeed a bit too much, and Xu Jingmo's slap was not bad at all.

In the past few days, he always wanted to see her more, but she was always cold. He didn't dare to go there, for fear of making the relationship more rigid. He could only go back every night and take a look before leaving in the morning. After all, she was approaching. Christmas, the company will be on holiday, very busy.

On the road today, he saw a young couple quarreling. The woman seemed really angry, but when the man conjured up a gift, the woman laughed, and the two quickly reconciled.

Shanglu frowned, eager to try, drove to the jewelry store, he wanted to buy a bracelet for Xu Jingmo, would she forgive herself?

After buying it, he couldn't wait to drive home, put the exquisitely packaged gift box on the coffee table in the living room, and waited for Xu Jingmo to come out.

He sat blankly for half an hour. When Xu Jingmo came down from the stairs, he grasped and loosened his hands on his lap, and said flatly, "I bought a gift, and I apologize to you."

His reaction was really like a brat, and Xu Jingmo managed to make Xu Jingmo laugh. She looked at the gift box, picked it up and opened it after hesitation.

"Do you like it?" Shanglu had been observing her expression, and seeing her mouth curled up a little, he asked knowingly.

Xu Jingmo put away the gift, suppressed the corners of his slightly raised mouth, and said calmly, "It's okay, thank you."

After she finished speaking, she left and went back to her room to observe the bracelet carefully.

It's so beautiful, it's a vibrant emerald green, and there are thin patterns inside, like willow branches. She likes it very much, but she dare not show it too obviously.

Seeing that she liked it, Shang Lu relaxed, took the keys and got up to go out. There are still many things to do in the company, and he needs to finish them soon, so he can be with Xu Jingmo on Christmas Day.

They didn't notice Jiang Xia, he smiled wryly and shook his head, maybe no matter how hard he tried, Xu Jingmo still didn't belong to him, but he still wanted to try, even if he would leave in the end.
