Beads are on the side, the president is on the top

Chapter 54
Xu Mochen picked out a few ingredients from a pile of ingredients, threw them into the sink, and rolled up his sleeves by the way: "It's too unreasonable for friends to say these things."

Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, then didn't say anything more, and helped Xu Mochen wash the dishes together.

The two cooperated tacitly, and quickly prepared three dishes and one soup.

After the dishes were all served, grandma looked at the three dishes that were delicious in color, fragrance, and couldn't help giving her thumbs up, praising them again and again.

Lin Xi hurriedly introduced to grandma that today's chef is Xu Mochen, and she was just helping out.

"Mo Chen can't see it, you still have this skill!"

Xu Mochen sat at the round table and warmly brought food to grandma: "I heard from Lin Xi that you can't eat sweet or greasy food. Today's dishes are very light, just suit your appetite."

"Good boy, you've taken the trouble. Grandma likes it very much."

Lin Xi quietly listened to the conversation between Xu Mochen and grandma, feeling a little moved in his heart.Regardless of the harassment from so many reporters outside the door, Xu Mochen insisted on bringing food to solve her and grandma's urgent needs, and even cooked the meal according to grandma's taste.

Of course she also remembered that Su Mingyu once said that Xu Mochen's purpose of approaching her was impure, but she really couldn't treat him as a bad person.

So she decided to give him a chance, as long as one day he can tell his purpose, she will still choose to be friends with him.

Thinking of friends, Lin Xi couldn't help thinking of Chen Lu again, wondering how she was doing in the United States recently.The last time I had a video with her, I saw her looking sad, as if she was not living happily.But it was inconvenient for her to ask any more questions, because Chen Lu was obviously evasive at that time.She decided to take good care of her another day.

Just as she was thinking of this, her cell phone rang suddenly. She took the cell phone and saw that it was Chen Lu on the caller ID. She was very surprised and quickly answered the call.

"Lulu, why did you think of calling me? International long-distance calls are expensive. Didn't I tell you that we will video when we miss me... What, you are back, and now you are at the airport..."

Lin Xi's face gradually became serious. She sent her abroad happily at first, but now she heard from the phone that she was in a very depressed mood.What the hell happened to her?
"What happened?" Xu Mochen put down his chopsticks, frowned, and looked at Lin Xi with concern.

"My best friend came back from the United States, I feel that her voice is not right, I want to pick her up at the airport."

"It's okay." Xu Mochen got up, and took his coat and wallet.

Under Xu Mochen's protection, Lin Xi rushed out of the reporter's encirclement, got into Xu Mochen's car, hurried out of the reporter's encirclement, and galloped all the way to the airport.

The air-conditioned airport hall was full of air. Chen Lu, who had short disheveled hair and was casually wearing T-sleeves and denim shorts, looked thinner than before going abroad, and her complexion was bad.

Seeing Chen Lu like this, Lin Xi didn't dare to recognize her for a while. After all, Chen Lu used to be full of vigor and vigor, but now Chen Lu standing in front of her seemed to have had her soul shell removed.

Seeing Lin Xi looking at her worriedly, Chen Lu threw down the suitcase and couldn't help crying in public.

Lin Xi ran over without thinking, hugged Chen Lu, let her cry in his arms for 5 minutes, and waited until she was completely calm before giving her and Xu Mochen a brief introduction , and then held her hand tightly, repeatedly comforting: "It's okay, it's okay, we'll talk when we go back."

In the car, Lin Xi found out that Chen Lu had been betrayed by her husband. Unexpectedly, she couldn't help cursing: "He's such a bastard! Give me his mobile phone number, and I'll ask him why he did this!"

"He changed his mobile phone number! I called him before leaving, and his number has been canceled!"

"What? He did such an amazing job! It's really disgusting... I think back then, the expenses for his study abroad were all paid by your family... Now he is with a foreign woman for a green card, it's really disgusting! How can there be such a thing in the world? Such an ungrateful bastard!?"

"Forget it, it's all in the past. We...have gone through the divorce procedures." Chen Lu quietly leaned against the car seat, her eyes were filled with desolation—the feeling when she saw her husband hugging another woman in a foreign country. This kind of panic made her heartbroken, as if the whole world had turned gray.At this moment, she was already numb, her heart seemed like a city that had been burned by fire, leaving only a ruined wall.

Lin Xi felt extremely distressed. Chen Lu had been the apple of the eye since she was a child. She held it in her mouth for fear of melting, and held it in her hand for fear of losing it. Where had she ever been wronged like this? Lin Xi really wanted to scold that heartless man and vent his anger, but look Now that Chen Lu looked like this, she felt that maybe mentioning this sad past would just add salt to her wounds.

In the end, Lin Xi thought about it seriously, and patted Chen Lu on the back lightly, wanting to use his own strength to encourage her: "Lu Lu, forget the past and start over!"

Chen Lu seemed to feel Lin Xi's worry, quickly wiped away her tears, and forced a smile: "Don't worry, I'm fine."

Lin Xi held Chen Lu's hand and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, if you miss this one, you will meet better ones!"

Chen Lu nodded, and held Lin Xi's hand instead, a gleam of fire rekindled in her eyes: "En!"

She knew that even if the whole world abandoned her, Lin Xi would still be by her side.

Xu Mochen looked at the two girls cuddling together in the back of the car from the rearview mirror. For some reason, he regretted a little—regretted exposing the photo of Lin Xi and Su Mingyu kissing!

If one day, Lin Xi knew what he had done to her, then he would definitely lose her!He really didn't want to lose such an affectionate friend!

As night fell, Lin Xi and Chen Lu were lying on the bed. The two friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time chatted for half the night before falling asleep.When he woke up the next day, Xu Mochen had already bought breakfast.

Xu Mochen, who was sitting in the narrow living room of Lin Xi's house, was bright and clear, with a handsome appearance, his whole body was tidy and tidy, and his smile was as warm as the sun, making the originally not spacious living room seem comfortable and bright all at once.

"This seems to be the one from last night... It seems that you haven't made a formal introduction to me yet!" Chen Lu was immersed in grief yesterday, completely ignoring people and things other than Lin Xi.I just vaguely remember that there was such a person to send them home.

Only then did Lin Xi remember to introduce to the two: "This is Xu Mochen, Mo Chen, and this is my best friend Chen Lu."

Xu Mochen came forward to hold Chen Lu's hand, and greeted politely: "Hello, Miss Chen."

Chen Lu took a look at Xu Mochen in front of him. Although he was not as good as Su Mingyu in appearance, he had an excellent body proportion, and he was very friendly, which was very different from Su Mingyu who had always been stern.

"Xu Mochen, good name. Nice to meet you, thank you for coming to pick me up at the airport last night." Chen Lu tried her best to adjust her mood, leaving her best side to Lin Xi's friend.

Xu Mochen nodded slightly towards Chen Lu, with a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth: "You're welcome, Lin Xi's friends are my friends, if you need help in the future, please feel free to come to me."

"Thank you!" Hearing what he said, Chen Lu followed Xu Mochen's gaze towards Lin Xi, and always felt that Xu Mochen's gaze was a little ambiguous, but Lin Xi's gaze was not on him at all, frank and frank. .

Chen Lu thought to herself—could it be that Xu Mochen had an unrequited love for Lin Xi?

Chen Lu also learned about Su Mingyu and his fiancée's sudden breakup from Lin Xi's mouth. Only then did she understand what happened to the reporter waiting at Lin Xi's gate. , because Lin Xi suspects that Tang Xin is her biological sister, and Lin Xi is born with a strong love and righteousness. In this way, even if Tang Xin's identity is not her sister in the end, she may not be willing to be the person who breaks other people's marriage contracts.

But looking at it now, fortunately there is Xu Mochen accompanying Lin Xi, Chen Lu really hopes that they will be able to get married in the end.

After Su Mingyu was busy with work, when he came to visit Lin Xi, he saw a group of reporters.He was very angry, and secretly used coercive means to invite away the reporters who surrounded Lin Xi's house.

However, as new revelations surfaced secretly on the Internet, pointing out that Su Mingyu bought Lin Xi's shop goods in a big way several times in Antique Street, it was Lin Xi who took this opportunity to list Su Mingyu. In order to prevent Lin Xi from being attacked again, this time Su Mingyu took the lead in admitting It was Lin Xi who he approached first.Later, the direction of public opinion gradually began to accuse Su Mingyu.

The Tang family originally wanted to discuss this matter, but when they saw Su Mingyu shielding Lin Xi so much, they were so angry that they brought Tang Xin to the Jin family to seek an explanation.

Yuan Hua told Jin Yuze to come home long before he knew that the Tang family was coming.

Jin Yuze instinctively wanted to go home and watch a good show, but he saw Tang Xin sitting on the side of the living room secretly sad, while Tang Xin's parents were denouncing Su Mingyu together with his own parents.

Jin Yuze heard that his mother had been saying bad things about Su Mingyu, which gradually aroused Tang Xin's depression. He invited Tang Xin to walk in the garden to resolve the disagreement between the two of them because Lin Xi fell into the water at the banquet. .Of course, Jin Yuze's more purpose was to split the relationship between Tang Xin and Su Mingyu. Tang Xin could naturally understand Jin Yuze's thoughts and deal with him calmly.

"I see that your current attitude does not blame Su Mingyu wholeheartedly like your parents did. Do you think it is possible for you and Su Mingyu to get back together?"

Jin Yuze sat in the garden, took a cup of English black tea, and took a sip, pretending to be indifferent, but in fact it was a bit tentative.

"What's the use of blaming him, and what's the use of blaming Lin Xi? I missed the opportunity, and I can only use more energy to make up for it, and I will create a chance to win the round!" Tang Xin smiled slightly, but there was a bit of sadness Confident, she is wearing a light blue dress and a Swarovski crystal necklace, which has a bit of stylish beauty.

"So you think so. The Tang family's daughter is really different from other people. She always knows how to get what she wants." Jin Yuze put down his teacup, his handsome face and narrow eyes flashed a hint of admiration , and then he tapped on the table with his fingers to test Tang Xin: "How, are you interested in cooperating with me?"

"Cooperation, just you?" Tang Xin looked at his defeated opponent.

Of course Jin Yuze knew that she was referring to the situation where he was about to be kicked out of the country by Su Mingyu, but he didn't take it seriously, "Mistakes are inevitable in away games, but you can't say that I am worthless, for example, I didn't care about Liu Shiyan's previous acquisition plan. Did it work out well?"

"Hehe...Jin Yuze, it seems that you don't know that Su Mingyu originally wanted to abdicate to take care of his mother in that acquisition case, but you made him the heir again. You are so smart Instead of being misunderstood by cleverness!"

Jin Yuze was a little surprised: "You mean that if Liu Shiyan's acquisition plan failed at that time, it would be beneficial to me? Do you mean that Su Mingyu wanted to take full responsibility and then give way to me?"

Tang Xin smiled without answering, looking unpredictable.

Jin Yuze was irritated by her: "Are you kidding me! Didn't you set me up in Zurich to help Su Mingyu drive me out of the country? After comparing the before and after, doesn't what you just said seem like a paradox? "

"So with your current strength, you are not qualified to discuss cooperation with me!"

Tang Xin stood up and walked around the garden with a cup of black tea. The scenery in the distance was charming, and her eyes drifted away.

Jin Yuze was not angry when she saw that she looked down on him so much, and smiled nonchalantly, "Well, I admit that in terms of resourcefulness, I am not as good as you and Su Mingyu, but if I add you, can't I still be able to suppress Su Mingyu? "

Tang Xin frowned, turned around, and looked at Jin Yuze.Jin Yuze smiled brightly, so confident and charming, which made the garden scenery even worse, and made people feel that he occupied the home court.

The aura flowed between the two, and a certain tacit understanding was gradually reached!

On the other side, Yuan Hua added fuel to the fire by taking out the photo of Su Mingyu and Lin Xi kissing, and pretending to hand it to Tang Xin's parents: "This photo was accidentally photographed before Su Mingyu and Tang Xin broke up. Yuze got it from a friend, I was hesitant to take it out before, and finally thought that paper can't cover fire after all, so I'd like to let you know that I'm mentally prepared!"

Tang's father was a little surprised by Yuan Hua's attitude. He picked up the photo and looked at it. He was furious when he saw it, and couldn't help clapping his hands: "It's too much, this Su Mingyu simply doesn't take our Tang family seriously. He actually bullied my daughter like this, don't think that my daughter is not his own and bully her like this, as long as I, Old Tang, live for a day, I will never let him go!"

Looking at the photo, Tang's mother felt sorry for her daughter even more, and made up her mind to reach an agreement with Yuan Hua: "Yuan Hua, Lao Jin, don't worry, I will stand by your side and support Yuze's superior position this time."

Jin Zhongguo was secretly happy, but on the surface he acted like a loving father: "It's because I, the father, did not do well to raise such a shameful son. You are not angry and still help me like this this time. I, Lao Jin, will never forget the kindness of your Tang family."

"Where is it, we also want to teach Mingyu a lesson this time, so tell me, as long as there is anything our Tang family can help you, feel free to mention it!"

"Okay... my old Jin really thank you this time!" Jin Zhongguo raised his eyes and looked at Yuan Hua. Yuan Hua turned his eyes to the outside of the hall and said deliberately: "Yo, the two children are missing."

Tang's mother took the words: "Maybe he went out for a walk. Yuze is a very good child. He is very considerate to our daughter at this time. I am very grateful to him."

"Hehe, Yuze has been a good boy since he was a child. Although he has dated many daughters of famous nobles in Zurich, but in his heart, he still misses Chinese girls. Let me tell you, how can those foreign women compare to her?" What about our Chinese women!"

"You mean..." Mother Tang followed Yuan Hua's words and gradually understood what she meant, "You mean, let Yuze and Tang Xin be together?"

"Hehe, sister, you are indeed a smart person." Yuan Hua put his hand on Tang's mother's hand, and the meaning of marriage was beyond words.

Tang's mother turned to look at Tang's father, and Tang's father and she looked at each other, lost in thought.

On the third day after Chen Lu returned to China, it rained suddenly, and the reporters who blocked Lin Xi's house gradually dispersed, and everything seemed to have returned to its original tranquility.Lin Xi and Chen Lu thought it was the rain that drove away those clingy reporters, but in fact it was the result of Su Mingyu's pressure on the media.

At the same time, Su Mingyu also learned from the reporter that Xu Mochen had been staying at Lin Xi's house since the day Lin Xi was surrounded by reporters, which made him very jealous. To confirm, he might not be able to resist rushing over to look for Lin Xi.

Chen Lu has been staying at Lin Xi's house for the past few days after returning to China. She was originally afraid that the news of the divorce would make her parents worry.But in the end, he mustered up his courage, packed his luggage, said goodbye to Lin Xi, and prepared to go home.

"What should be faced must be faced. I can't hide it from them all my life."

Lin Xi hugged her a little reluctantly: "Okay, you should make it clear with your uncles and aunts first, and we will get together another day."

In order to reassure Lin Xi, Xu Mochen offered to send Chen Lu back. Chen Lu couldn't help but feel that Xu Mochen was indeed a reliable and good man who took care of everything in an orderly and thoughtful manner.She couldn't help but turned her head and blinked at Lin Xi, then glanced at Xu Mochen, signaling Lin Xi to seize the opportunity.

Lin Xi was a little embarrassed, and waved at Chen Lu to tell her not to make trouble, but Chen Lu turned her head and stuck out her tongue at her mischievously.Seeing Chen Lu like this, Lin Xi breathed a sigh of relief—this is the lively and lovely Chen Lu!

After tidying up the room, Lin Xi remembered that he hadn't visited the store for a long time, stared at grandma after taking the medicine, and then went to Antique Street.

There has been a lot of rain recently, and the weather is cloudy and cloudy, hot and cold. Fortunately, the period of slowest business has gradually passed, and some wooden carving beads have begun to move.

Lin Xi and the people sent by Su Mingyu did the handover work and settled the accounts. Considering that Su Mingyu hadn't contacted her recently, and with the previous turmoil about the dissolution of the engagement, it was probably impossible to be his assistant as mentioned earlier. So she decided to do her own small business with peace of mind.

After the handover person went back, he reported Lin Xi's decision to Su Mingyu, but Su Mingyu didn't personally intervene. It seemed that he had acquiesced in Lin Xi's actions.
