Ex-husband No.90 seeks reunion nine times

Chapter 507 Let Her Make a Choice

"Stop hitting!" Ming Xi stood in the middle, and Shen Tinglu's fists swung in the past abruptly stopped.

The man's face was cold, "You still want to defend him now? Have you forgotten what he did to you?"

Being stared at by his disappointed eyes, Ming Xi felt very uncomfortable.

In fact, she still clearly remembers what Huo Chengzhou did to her before.

If Shen Tinglu hadn't taken the risk to rescue her back then, she wouldn't be able to stand here well now.

but--

Huo Chengzhou said at the right time: "I stayed here forcibly, don't blame her."

Shen Tinglu sneered, "You can speak for her now."

His gaze fell on Huo Chengzhou's gauze-bound arm, and his smile became even more sarcastic, "Because I was injured and needed her help, that's why I finally remembered that I have such a younger sister?"

"Stop talking." Ming Xi pressed her temples, and the feeling of irritability in her heart did not dissipate for a long time.

Seeing her like this, Shen Tinglu hesitated to speak.

Jiang Mengyue was awakened by the noise, and when she opened the door to see this scene, her expression became complicated.

She opened her mouth to say something, but felt that no matter what she said now, there was no way to resolve this chaotic relationship.

Ming Xi closed the door of the suite, and said indifferently to the few people: "Sit down first, and then have a good talk."

Jiang Mengyue took the lead and sat down on the sofa.

Shen Tinglu and Huo Chengzhou looked at each other with cold expressions.

But in the end they still walked over and sat down on Ming Xi's left and right sides.

Ming Xi looked at Shen Tinglu, and asked seriously: "The injury on his arm has nothing to do with you, right?"

Shen Tinglu hooked his lips, "If I did it, would you choose to forgive me or defend him?"

"These issues are not important now." Ming Xi said with a straight face, "Tell me the truth."

Seeing her serious look, Shen Tinglu said in a somewhat compromised tone, "It's not me."

Ming Xi heaved a sigh of relief, and looked at Huo Chengzhou again, "You chose to come to me this time, which means you won't trouble the Shen family anymore, right?"

Huo Chengzhou was lost in thought.

Ming Xi's tone was still cold, "Since you have chosen to join me, you must tell me the truth. Otherwise, there is no need for you to stay here."

"It's Shen Yuenan." Huo Chengzhou pondered for a long time before finally speaking.

"What do you mean?" Ming Xi couldn't understand the meaning of his words for a while, and looked confused.

A cold light suddenly appeared in Shen Tinglu's eyes, and a cold and frightening aura erupted from his body.

He opened his thin lips lightly, and his voice was full of sarcasm, "Did Shen Yuenan instigate you to do all of this?"

Hearing this, Ming Xi shrank her pupils and looked at Huo Chengzhou in disbelief.

Huo Chengzhou nodded expressionlessly, "That's right."

boom -

Ming Xi's mind suddenly went blank, she leaned back, her expression changed again and again.

Jiang Mengyue also widened her eyes in shock, "Shen Yuenan? Isn't that person..."

Shen Tinglu's nominal father!
Shen Tinglu's thin lips were tightly pursed, his jaw was tense, and his deep black eyes were shining with cold light.

The room fell into a long silence, and the atmosphere became gloomy.

I don't know how long it took before Ming Xi finally regained some reason, looked at Shen Ting Lv and asked worriedly: "Did you know about this beforehand?"

"I don't know." The man said in a low voice.

Ming Xi frowned even deeper.

So the current situation is something that Shen Tinglu could not have predicted before.

There were mixed emotions in her heart, and her hand was suddenly gently held by a big palm.

Ming Xi turned her head, just in time to meet Shen Tinglu's soothing eyes.

She looked a little astonished, obviously she was the one who encountered difficulties now, but Shen Tinglu——

Huo Chengzhou's eyes darkened when he saw the actions of the two of them.

"The most important thing now is not who ordered you to do these things, but what is the purpose of the person who ordered you." Shen Tinglu looked up at Huo Chengzhou.

Ming Xi was extremely grateful when she heard his words.

According to her understanding of Shen Tinglu, he doesn't want to pursue the things that Huo Chengzhou has done for the time being.

Jiang Mengyue came back to her senses and was also very puzzled, "So what is his purpose for doing this?"

Shen Yuenan was Shen Tinglu's adoptive father, but he manipulated these people behind his back to deal with Shen Tinglu time and time again.

These things are simply unimaginable to them.

Huo Chengzhou shook his head, "I don't know either."

He raised his eyes, met the suspicious eyes of the previous few people, and smiled self-deprecatingly, "I know you don't believe me, but that's the truth."

"I believe in you." Ming Xi said.

Huo Chengzhou looked at her a few more times unexpectedly, his expression became complicated.

Shen Tinglu leaned back, and tapped casually on the armrest of the sofa with his slender fingers, "This is between me and him, I will investigate it myself."

He stood up and stared at Huo Chengzhou, "But you must follow me now."

"Why? Ming Xi couldn't help asking, her face was full of worry.

Shen Tinglu's eyes were quite cold, "He got himself into trouble, and he still wants to hide with you, isn't he afraid of bringing you a disaster?"

Huo Chengzhou shrugged and stood up.

Before Mingxi could speak, Shen Tinglu also stared at her and said, "Don't worry, I will tell you first before I do anything to him."

This means that without her permission, he will not easily attack Huo Chengzhou again?

Ming Xi's heart skipped a beat, she felt that his eyes were hot for no reason, and she didn't dare to look at him again.

Huo Chengzhou cooperated with Shen Tinglu to leave, and the house became quiet again.

Thinking back on everything that happened just now, Ming Xi felt mixed feelings.

She looked at the blood stain on the armrest of the sofa, and couldn't help but walk to the window and look down, staring at Shen Tinglu's back.

Huo Chengzhou obviously caused him a lot of trouble, but for his safety, she was still willing to endure the disgust and take Huo Chengzhou to his place.

Ming Xi pressed her palm on her heart, and the complicated emotions in her heart were not suppressed for a long time.

That night, several people did not sleep very comfortably.

Early the next morning, Ming Xi received a text message from Huo Chengzhou: 【I'm fine. 】

So Shen Tinglu did not hurt him as agreed last night.

Ming Xi was completely relieved, and after having breakfast with Jiang Mengyue, she received a call from Huo Yaqing.

Her eyes darkened, she hesitated to answer, and her voice was indifferent, "Ms. Huo, what's wrong?"

"I heard that you went to find Huo Zhenhai some time ago?" Huo Yaqing asked with a faint smile.

Ming Xi sneered, "Your news is really well-informed."

"Because of this kind of thing, some people take the initiative to report to me." Huo Yaqing paused, and then said, "What is your purpose in doing this?"

Ming Xi narrowed her eyes slightly, "Shouldn't I be the one to ask you this question? Ms. Huo has been occupying the Huo family's property all these years, and directed all the Huo family's grievances at the Shen family. This is too disastrous for the Shen family. fair."

"I don't understand what you mean by that." Huo Yaqing's tone remained unchanged.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand now, you will understand voluntarily one day."

Mingxi was about to hang up the phone anyway, when the other party came in a threatening tone, "Mingxi, I advise you to stop in moderation. Once you step into some muddy water, it will be difficult to get out in the future."

Ming Xi raised her eyebrows, "Thank you for reminding me, but I always like to take risks. No matter what the future holds, I will not regret my decision this time."

Without waiting for Huo Yaqing to respond, she hung up the phone.

Jiang Mengyue said worriedly: "You said... will she really do anything to us?"

"People will always lose their nature in the face of interests." Ming Xi took a sip of water, and the smile on her lips became bitter, "If the death of our parents is really related to her, do you think she still cares about our lives?"

Jiang Mengyue thought for a while and couldn't help sighing, "You're right, sometimes blood doesn't mean anything."

Ming Xi felt heavy when she thought of the relationship between Shen Yuenan and Shen Tinglu.

This is true for those who are related by blood, let alone Shen Yuenan and Shen Tinglu who are not related by blood.

In the luxurious villa, Huo Yaqing put her mobile phone aside without any annoyance on her face.

She took a sip of hot tea, and the butler came over, "Ma'am, Miss Jiang is here."

Huo Yaqing smiled, "It's really early, let her in."

When Jiang Li entered the room, she saw Huo Yaqing drinking hot tea slowly, which was in stark contrast to her anxious appearance.

Thinking that she had lived such a leisurely life before, Jiang Li was furious.

Before breaking with the Shen family, Huo Yaqing had to give her some face.

But now, when Huo Yaqing saw her coming in, she was still sitting on the sofa and refused to get up to greet her.

This is simply showing her off!

But thinking that she wanted something from others this time, Jiang Li could only try her best to put her face down.

She walked over and smiled at Huo Yaqing, "Let's make a long story short."

Since they both know the purpose of meeting today, there is no need to beat around the bush.

An appreciative smile appeared on Huo Yaqing's face, "I just like a sensible person like you."

She pointed to the seat opposite her, motioned Jiang Li to sit down, shook the teacup and said casually, "I heard that your father had an illegitimate child outside."

Hearing this, Jiang Li's hands on her knees immediately clenched into fists.

She looked at Jiang Li's gaze with vigilance.

Her father did have an illegitimate child, and it was precisely because she knew that she had such a threat that she obeyed his father's orders.

Because once he fails to bring value to the Jiang family, his father will definitely take the illegitimate son back to the Jiang family for the benefit of the family.

In this way, her chances of inheriting the Jiang family's family business in the future will become slim!
Seeing that the anger on Jiang Li's face gradually increased, Huo Yaqing smiled with satisfaction, "Don't be angry, I'm here to help you solve the problem today."

"Is there any way you can help me?" Jiang Li's tone became a little impatient.

Huo Yaqing stood up and patted her on the shoulder, "Your biggest problem now is that you can't handle Shen Tinglu. If you can become the young mistress of the Shen family, you still have to worry about that illegitimate son coming to compete with you for the property of the Jiang family?"

Jiang Li snorted coldly, "It's easy for you to say!"
