After all, Shen Tinglu's influence on her is also very clear in her heart.

It's half an hour's lunch break, Ming Xi took out her phone from her pocket, clicked on WeChat, and wanted to send a message to Shen Ting Lv.

After hesitating for a long time, in the end, Mingxi didn't send anything to Shen Tinglu.

After half an hour passed, I had to start busy with work again.

Unbeknownst to him, Shen Tinglu, who was "guarding the empty boudoir alone" at home, looked at the phone eagerly, but after a long time when the screen didn't light up, his face turned dark.

In Shen Tinglu's current life, he has never experienced such a deserted feeling a few times.

It was as if his and Ming Xi's identities had been swapped, the other was so busy that he couldn't see where he was, but he was sulking here like a little girl.

Feelings of grievance surged up immediately, Shen Tinglu thought uncomfortably.He ran all the way from the imperial capital to accompany Ming Xi, but he himself was left out in the cold.

Why?
But not long after this idea came out, it was overturned by the rational Shen Tinglu.

Shen Tinglu put down the documents that he didn't read at all, put his hands on his forehead, deeply felt the childishness of his thoughts, he thought, he should take a good rest earlier.

Ming Xi, who was busy with company affairs not far away, didn't know it.

Time passed slowly, and night fell.

"It's almost there, thank you everyone." Ming Xi's own job in hand was successfully completed, and the company's cooperation projects were also proceeding in an orderly manner. She and Du Ruize decided to release the employees early, which was considered a little breathing time for themselves.

The employees cheered several times in the office, Du Ruize smiled and packed up his things, "Shall we go to eat something? It's still early."

With the gap, Mingxi's brain also has more room for thinking.She pursed her lips, but Shen Tinglu was thinking in her heart, "Sorry everyone, go back and rest early."

Du Ruize smiled unabated on the surface, nodded, "Yes."

"Everyone, be careful when you go back. I'll treat you to dinner when you finish your work in the near future." Ming Xi hurriedly said before they left, that combining work and rest is the best way to work.

The two of them left the company, and the cold wind came blowing in their faces. Du Ruize inadvertently asked, "Is Shen Tinglu still in City K?"

"He's still there." Ming Xi replied without thinking too much.

Du Ruize thought of Mingxi being overwhelmed by the company's affairs recently, and asked in surprise, "Wouldn't he be unhappy?"

"What?" Ming Xi stopped in her tracks, "Why do you say that?"

Du Ruize stroked his chin twice, deliberately not calling Mingxi, just to let Shen Tinglu suffer from love.

"It's nothing. Has Shen Tinglu changed recently?" Du Ruize continued to pretend that he didn't mean to mention it.

Ming Xi was a little cold, so she didn't think too much about it, and answered honestly, what came to her mind at the end, "He's fine recently, it's about the same as before. Why are you asking so suddenly, we two have a pretty good relationship recently."

"I just asked!" Du Ruize raised his hands to pretend to surrender, and bid farewell to Ming Xi after reaching the intersection, "Go back, see you tomorrow."

Ming Xi returned to the apartment in a daze, the lights in the apartment were not turned off, the warm yellow headlights filled the apartment, and the warm smell permeated every corner.

After washing off her tired body, Ming Xi collapsed on the soft sofa and called Shen Tinglu's name, "Tinglu?"

After a while, no one responded, and the door of the bedroom in the apartment was closed.

Is he gone?
Ming Xi looked at the entrance, the shoes were still there.

She lowered her voice and quietly opened the bedroom door, only then did Mingxi find that Shen Tinglu had gone to bed early, and she couldn't help feeling puzzled.

"Why do you sleep so early?" Ming Xi lifted the quilt, lay down next to him, and waited for a long time until the man reluctantly responded with an "um".

She couldn't think of what provoked him. Shen Tinglu threw his back to her. At this moment, he couldn't see his face clearly, so he was thinking too much.

"I always feel that work needs to be carefully considered. Although some people cooperate for your sake, there is no guarantee that no one will take the opportunity to make trouble."

"Okay." Shen Tinglu's voice was cold, and he stopped talking after finishing speaking, closing his eyes and still not feeling sleepy.

"You don't need to talk about business during the break, I'll teach you tomorrow if there's anything you don't know." When he fell silent, Ming Xi couldn't find anything to say, and the surroundings were quiet.

The more Shen Tinglu thought about the company she and Du Ruize had opened, he felt so angry that his heart was blocked with a stone. This was just the beginning, and the two of them would work more in the future, not to mention that Du Ruize had that kind of thought about her.

As a man, it's not that he can't see that the way Du Ruize looked at her was the same as how he looked at her. He wanted to mention it to her, but he didn't know where to start, so he had to give up.

Ming Xi is a transparent person, immediately sensed that something was wrong with him, and asked cautiously and tentatively: "Is there someone who upset you? That person can't be me, right?"

Shen Tinglu was silent and didn't look back. She couldn't think of a reason after much deliberation, and she was a little helpless: "If I make you unhappy, just tell me, I don't want any more misunderstandings between us."

Hearing this, the man couldn't hold back for a moment, and turned to look at her with a sullen and dissatisfied face: "Can you stay away from Du Ruize, or change your partner?"

Ming Xi was taken aback for a moment, but she hadn't recovered from his words, she realized that he was jealous, she found it funny but at the same time she wasn't sure.

Never seen him react like this before.

"The company has already started operations, and he and I are friends, so there is no need to miss him deliberately, but every time we meet, we are upright, you..."

"I understand, I don't doubt you." Shen Tinglu said dully, knowing that she and Du Ruize didn't have those things, but thinking about it still makes her feel uncomfortable.

"The company is yours, you decide for yourself." He didn't want to push her too hard, and he didn't want to see her focus too much on business and ignore himself.

Ming Xi's heart moved slightly, a warm current surged into her heart, she bent her lips and touched the man's face: "So you are angry because of this, maybe you don't want to hear it, but I still have to say it."

"At present, the company has just started, and I will inevitably spend more energy. When I am not busy in a while, I can accompany you anytime."

"Okay." Shen Tinglu's face softened slightly.

"Then you are not angry anymore?" Ming Xi touched his forehead with a smile on his face.

"It's true that I'm sulking, but I'm not angry with you, I'm angry with myself." If he could have realized it earlier, the relationship between them should have reached this point, and it wouldn't be what it is now. She has always belonged to him only.

"Then I'll coax you."

As Mingxi said, Shen Tinglu glanced at her with anticipation, "How to coax?"

Ming Xi kissed him on the face, like a superficial touch, and answered his words: "This way."

She seldom took the initiative, which was beyond Shen Tinglu's expectation.

He took a tight breath, feeling a little out of breath, and there was some affection in the dark bottom of the pool: "Do you know what you are doing?"

"It's very clear..." Before Ming Xi could finish speaking, the man beside her rolled over and pressed her over, kissing her fiercely. The two lingered for a while before falling asleep.

Even if this matter is over, it also reminds Mingxi that even Shen Tinglu can misunderstand, let alone others, she still has to stay away from Du Ruize in the future.

The next morning.

Li Huiru walked out of the airport, went straight to the house where Shen Tinglu lived, and rang the doorbell a few times. Shen Tinglu was still asleep, and Ming Xi went out to open the door lightly.

When Li Huiru saw that it was her, her expression turned cold. She had looked down on her identity before, and now she passed her and walked in directly.

"Why did you open the door, what about others?"

"He..." Mingxi didn't know how to tell her that she hadn't woken up yet, and she could see that she was dissatisfied with him, but since she was Shen Tinglu's mother, Mingxi was always polite.

Li Huiru thought she didn't want to tell herself, so she raised her voice angrily: "It's useless if you don't want me to see him, he is my son, I came here specially for him this time, naturally I have something to look for him, if you don't look, you don't know You live in this little apartment!"

"Mom, you misunderstood." Mingxi blurted out subconsciously, and Li Huiru was even more dissatisfied. In the past, because of the Ming family, she could bear her dislike.

Ever since the Ming family went bankrupt, she has looked down on this daughter-in-law even more, thinking that it is a good thing for the two to divorce, but she did not expect that they are still inseparable now.

"I'm not your mother, don't call me that, you can't bear this call."

Li Huiru refused coldly, Mingxi didn't want to quarrel with her, Shen Tinglu heard the movement, walked out of the room, his face was unhappy: "Mom, why are you here?"

"I don't know if I don't come." Li Huiru pointed at Mingxi and questioned Shen Tinglu, "What's going on with you, why didn't you tell me?"

Shen Tinglu signaled Mingxi to go back to the room, and explained to her patiently: "This is my own idea, and I am going to take her back to show you."

As soon as the words fell, Li Huiru immediately refused and did not let Mingxi leave: "I disagree, when you divorced, you shouldn't have any more contact!"

"Married, divorced and remarried, do you think it's a child's play? Not only me, I'm afraid your father won't agree, I'm here this time to take you back to the imperial capital."

"I won't go back. Those things in the past are in the past. What she and I want is the future. If I want to stay in that house, I won't come back here from the imperial capital."

Li Huiru was resolute, and Shen Tinglu was more resolute than her. The divorce was his mistake at the beginning. He had already regretted it once, and he would never let her go this time.

"But that's the Shen family!"

Shen Tinglu sneered, his eyes darkened: "Is there any nostalgia in that family, is it the father's cheating, or you crying all day long, or another woman and her son?"

Li Huiru raised her hand to hit him, but she couldn't do it, so she sternly said, "Shut up!"

Ming Xi was terrified, it was inconvenient for her to get involved with their mother and son, but she also couldn't just watch him being beaten, no matter what she said at this time, it was wrong in her eyes.

Shen Tinglu realized that the words were too heavy, so he restrained his expression slightly, his eyes were still cold: "I've made it clear to you, I won't go back again."

That home was oppressive and dull, and it was the prison he wanted to escape from all the time. He had thought about it more than once, even if the relationship between his father and mother broke down, what was the meaning of his mother staying at home.
