Ex-husband No.90 seeks reunion nine times

Zhang Heng put a cup of coffee on her desk, "Mingxi, I see that you are not in a good state of mind today, so I made you a cup of coffee, you should drink it first to refresh yourself."

Ming Xi came back to her senses, raised her head and gave him a grateful smile, "Thank you very much, but I'll just do this kind of thing myself in the future, I really can't trouble you all the time."

"It's just a small matter, I don't think it's a trouble." Zhang Heng scratched his head in embarrassment, and his tone became cautious, "A new western restaurant has opened near the company. May I invite you to have dinner with me tonight?"

"Dining together?" Ming Xi looked guilty, "Sorry, actually I..."

"It's okay, since you're not free tonight, let's find another day." Zhang Heng smiled and walked away as if he didn't want to put any pressure on her.

Ming Xi looked at his back as he walked away quickly, and sighed disappointedly.

She is an adult now, so it is impossible for her not to feel Zhang Heng's special attitude towards her.

But now, even if she didn't get together with Shen Tinglu, it's impossible for her to open her heart to men easily.

When I came out of the company when I got off work, it was already dark, and there was a dark cloud gathering above, which was a sign of heavy rain.

Ming Xi was about to walk towards the bus station, when she suddenly remembered something, looked around vigilantly, but couldn't find Du Ruize.

It seems that he did not come today.

Thinking of the picture in the USB flash drive, Ming Xi's heart ached, like a walking dead walking by the side of the road.

Bang!
Halfway there, someone knocked her down.

Ming Xi fell to the ground and found that her pocket was empty.

"My mobile phone... that person is a thief! He stole my mobile phone!" Ming Xi looked up and saw a young man running forward quickly while grabbing her mobile phone.

A kind-hearted person helped her up, and she rushed forward.

During the period, I almost fell down several times, but fortunately, I finally caught up with the thief.

The thief didn't seem to expect that she would be so persistent in chasing her, so he dragged her into a small alley.

"do not move!"

Ming Xi had just turned a corner and was about to follow when the other party suddenly stabbed a sharp knife at her throat.

She had to stop, and saw that the other party was from country C, and she could only communicate with him in the language of country C, "Sir, my life is very difficult now, as long as you return the phone to me, I won't talk to you again." Count everything you've done today."

The thief sneered, and said angrily, "Are you negotiating with me? How naive! This is country C, do you think the police in country C will protect you as a foreigner?"

He paused as he spoke, looking at her delicate little face, a greedy light flashed in his eyes, "But if you can stay with me for a night, I can return the phone to you."

Pooh!
Ming Xi smacked at him, then raised her foot to kick him.

The thief staggered a few times, swung his knife angrily, and stabbed at her.

puff-

Suddenly there was the sound of a knife piercing into flesh and blood.

Ming Xi raised her head in astonishment, and a figure quickly flashed past her.

Immediately afterwards, there were several "bang bang bang", and the thief wailed: "Ah——let me go!"

Ming Xi was surprised for a while, and saw that a man in a suit and leather shoes had already beaten the thief to the ground.

The man covered the thief's hands behind his back, holding the knife in the other hand and gesticulating on his face, "Stealing women's things in broad daylight, are you still a man?"

"I was wrong! I was just joking with her, and I will return the phone to her now!" The thief saw the cold light flashing in front of his eyes, and his legs trembled in fright.

The man took out his mobile phone from the thief's pocket, kicked him to the ground, and ordered coldly, "Take him to the police station!"

Several bodyguards in uniform rushed over and responded in unison: "Yes!"

Seeing the thief being taken away by the bodyguards, Ming Xi came to her senses.

"Your phone, return it to you." The man handed the phone to her.

Ming Xi rubbed her eyes, looked intently, still feeling surprised, "Huo...Mr. Huo?"

Huo Chengzhou smiled, "It seems that we are destined to meet each other in country C."

Ming Xi took the phone and said gratefully: "Thank you so much this time. If you hadn't saved me, I might just... ah! You were hurt!"

Looking at the blood stains on the sleeves of his white suit, she realized that the thief had stabbed the knife into Huo Chengzhou's arm just now.

"I'm sorry! I'm the one who caused you trouble. I'll take you to the hospital first." Ming Xi said hastily.

"It's just a trivial matter, I'll just go back and bandage it myself." Huo Chengzhou had a nonchalant expression on his face.

Ming Xi frowned, "The wound is very deep, if I don't send you to the hospital for a professional disinfection and bandage, I won't feel at ease."

"Well, sorry to trouble you, my car happened to be parked on the side of the road."

Ming Xi took the car keys and drove towards the hospital seriously, regardless of whether it was his luxury car.

When she arrived at the hospital, she saw the doctor stitching the wound on his arm, her face turned pale.

Huo Chengzhou gently held her hand, "Are you worried about me? I'm fine."

"En." Ming Xi nodded without hesitation.

Although she didn't know him well, if it wasn't for saving her, Huo Chengzhou wouldn't have been hurt.

Feeling the warmth from the man's palm, she realized that their hands were still touching.

Ming Xi withdrew her hand like an electric shock, avoiding his sight.

"Sorry, I took the liberty." Huo Chengzhou said sincerely.

When the two came out of the hospital, Ming Xi's expression was tangled, "If I didn't have you today, I might have suffered more injuries. But no matter what, you have no obligation to save me, so I hope next time..."

"Next time if this kind of thing happens again, I will still help you." Huo Chengzhou said very firmly.

Ming Xi stopped in her tracks, and couldn't help but take a deep look at him, "Mr. Huo, don't you think our encounters were all accidental?"

First she fell down on the road, then ran out of the company after a dispute with Shen Tinglu, and now he rescued her from the thief.

Huo Chengzhou raised his eyebrows, "What do you want to express?"

Ming Xi pursed her lips, but she was too embarrassed to say the words in her heart.

Although she was very grateful to him for his rescue several times, the coincidences again and again made her think more.

"Do you think I've been following you?" Huo Chengzhou smiled, but his eyes were clear.

Looking at the other party's frank attitude, Ming Xi felt that her suspicion just now seemed too petty.

She sighed softly, "I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't think so, but too many bad things have happened in my life, so I have to be cautious. I owe you a favor today, here is my business card , if you have anything I can help you with in the future, I hope you will give me a chance to repay you."

"Are you so afraid of owing me?" Huo Chengzhou chuckled, "Actually, I just want to make friends with you."

The other party's eyes were a little hot, and Ming Xi coughed unnaturally, "Mr. Huo, I have other things to do, so I'm going back first."

Seeing her striding away as if escaping, Huo Chengzhou's eyes had a little more meaning.

When Ming Xi returned home, her mood was still complicated.

"Sister, why did you come back so late today?" Jiang Mengyue poked her head out from the kitchen, saw her pale face, and asked quickly, "Did something happen?"

Ming Xi frowned, hesitated for a while, and finally told her about herself and Huo Chengzhou one by one.

"Mengyue, do you think this is too coincidental? Although he hasn't done anything threatening to me until now, I'm always a little uneasy."

Jiang Mengyue held her hand, "We have experienced too many turmoil, and we should be more careful now. I will have someone investigate that man's background, and you'd better be more careful in the future."

"Ah."

Late at night, in the office of the president of Shen Group.

"Mr. Shen, it's already four o'clock in the morning, you should take a rest first." Standing beside Shen Tinglu, Xu Wen couldn't help reminding him as he watched him seriously reviewing the documents.

The man's face was serious, his eyes did not move away from the information in front of him, his thin lips parted slightly: "I'm not sleepy, you can go back first."

"But……"

"Xu Wen, you haven't had a holiday for a long time, you can rest at home for two days tomorrow." Shen Tinglu looked up with an indifferent expression.

Hearing what he said, Xu Wen understood that he didn't want to bother him tomorrow.

Because he knew his temper well, Xu Wen couldn't say anything more, so he could only leave quietly.

He was alone in the office for a while, silent.

Shen Tinglu stared at the document in front of him, unable to read a line for a long time.

He stood up, walked to the French window, looked at the moon in the sky covered by dark clouds, his eyes gradually darkened.

It has been three days.

Ming Xi left for three days, but did not contact him once.

The phone rang at this moment, it was Xie Nanzhi's call, he pressed to answer.

"Brother Lu, I just found out Du Ruize's whereabouts. He recently went to country C."

After the words fell, Shen Tinglu's eyebrows became a little more hostile.

Xie Nanzhi immediately said again: "I want to visit country C."

Now they don't know why Du Ruize made such a fuss, but Jiang Mengyue is still in country C, so he still can't completely relax.

"En." Shen Tinglu responded lightly, acquiescing to his proposal.

After finishing the call, he poured himself a glass of red wine, looking at the scarlet liquid in the glass that he shook, a face inexplicably appeared in Shen Tinglu's mind.

He grabbed the car keys, drove towards the mansion area by himself, and finally stopped in front of a villa.

"Mr. Shen, why are you here?" The butler just came out and was a little surprised when he saw him get off the car.

"I want to see Shen Zhenhai." Shen Tinglu looked indifferent.

The housekeeper was no longer surprised by him calling his uncle's name so directly, "Wait a moment."

He was about to report, but Shen Tinglu pushed him away without showing any face, and strode in.

The living room smelled of alcohol. A man in his 50s was sitting in the middle of the sofa, with a young woman on the left and right sides, next to his body.
