Reflection

Chapter 16 Gifts

At noon on the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Ni Xian drove all the way north. She was no stranger to this road, and driving north along this road was where Wei Lingxin lived.

It's just that the address given by the other party has to come out three intersections in advance.Ni Xian turned on the turn signal and parked the car outside a different coffee shop.Such a large outdoor parking lot, I thought it would be a lively place, but I didn't expect such an elegant and stylish coffee shop to be empty.

It may be that I have been in business for a long time, and I am used to looking for profitable places here. I didn't realize that this place is a bar at night until I saw the photos on the wall, and occasionally there are some celebrities to help out.

Just like the name of this appropriate coffee shop, the colorful black swan.

The waiter stepped forward, "Hello, do you have a reservation?"

Ni Xian took off his sunglasses, nodded to the waiter with a smile on his face, listened to the beautiful music, and naturally locked on the figure sitting in the innermost window by the window, "My friend is over there."

The waiter recognized Ni Xian at a glance. He was stunned and then suppressed his excitement and said, "Ni Xian, you...you look better than you can see on TV."

Ni Xian smiled politely, "Thank you."

Si Shengxia naturally heard the excited voice of the waiter and the sound of approaching footsteps, and thoughtfully got up and changed his seat, let Ni Xian sit in the shade, and sat opposite him, and saw the nympho in the distance The waitress said politely, "Hello, Miss Ni."

"Hello, Lawyer Si." Ni Xian took all of this into consideration and smiled, "I didn't expect Lawyer Si to be so considerate."

Si Shengxia's smile deepened, "I'm just used to seeing clients, and it's my honor to be considered considerate by you.

Ni Xian was a little hesitant when he came out to see Si Shengxia today, except for the time they met at Wei Lingxin's funeral, they had never met at all, after all, they were separated by mountains.

It was also because of that meeting that Ni Xian knew that Wei Lingxin had such a good friend, but she had never heard of it.

After that, Si Shengxia's name was mostly seen in newspapers and magazines, most of which were related to Wei Lingxin.In addition to the inheritance case, it is her own working ability and strength.Even his father with such an old and stubborn personality once praised Si Shengxia's genius in handling the lawsuit.

Such a social elite is really hard to imagine, how did Wei Lingxin and her become friends?

"Lawyer Si, I want to ask..."

"Do you want to try the latte here?" Si Shengxia naturally took over when Ni Xian hesitated, and emphasized: "Wei Lingxin likes the latte here very much."

"... Ling Xin... sister?"

"Well, it's very close to her home. Sometimes she invites me out to talk about work, and she will always be here." Si Shengxia raised her hand to greet the waiter, and ordered two simple meals and two cups of coffee.During the waiting process, the two sat opposite each other, but they didn't know where to start some words.When the coffee was served, Si Shengxia smiled first, "Try it, she told me that you like to drink black coffee, I don't know if this kind of coffee is too weak."

Ni Xian looked at Si Shengxia in disbelief, "Sister Ling Xin told you about me?"

"You are the one she always talks about, not on purpose, but inadvertently mentioning you in front of me." Si Shengxia finished serving a steak and a pasta separately, and waited for the waiter to leave completely before leaving the bag. He took out an exquisite gift box and put it on the table, "I saw this when I was arranging Wei Lingxin's belongings. It is a gift she is going to give you."

Ni Xian cut the steak slightly, staring at the exquisite white gift box, subconsciously put down the knife and fork and put on the sunglasses on his face to cover up his emotions.

After a while, Ni Xian asked: "...is it okay?"

Si Shengxia could see that Ni Xian really wanted to open the gift box right away, but he understood the meaning behind the three words 'can you', so he smiled relievedly, "I am a lawyer, so what I do will naturally not violate myself, this is Wei Ling Xin's explanation, I only gave it to you today because I was delayed by some formalities, but..."

"But what?"

"Although the formalities have been completed, Wei Lingxin is no longer here. Because of the inheritance issue, I think Ms. Ni must have heard about it. Her distant relatives are always watching me, looking for opportunities to appeal, and also looking at Ni Miss keep it a secret."

"Don't worry, I will keep it secret." Ni Xian, who controlled his emotions, held the white gift box in his hand, just touched its packaging, and his breathing was slightly stagnant, "Thank you, Lawyer Si, I really didn't expect... "

"Aren't you going to open it and have a look?" Si Shengxia was looking forward to Ni Xian's expression when he opened the gift, even through the sunglasses.

Ni Xian held the gift firmly in his hand, took off his sunglasses and put it aside again, and smiled shamelessly at the person in front of him, "It's better not to make a fool of yourself in front of Lawyer Si, after all, Sister Ling Xin is a very important person to me, I don't want to get emotional here."

Seeing the rosiness of her eyes, Si Shengxia nodded clearly, "I understand."

Ni Xian breathed to calm her emotions. After all, it was too precious to her to receive Wei Lingxin's gift after such a long time.But the more this happened, the more curious she was about Si Shengxia's message, she raised her eyebrows and asked, "Lawyer Si, can you tell me now, what does the 'I won't find what you want here' mean exactly? Do you have what I want?"

"I'm sorry, I'm going to disappoint you. Actually... I don't know what it means." Si Shengxia replied honestly. Seeing Ni Xian's puzzled eyes, she showed a rigorous attitude and explained methodically: "I It's just according to Wei Lingxin's instructions to do what I have to do. She told me that when I saw Ning Ke and Ni Xian attending a grand event at the same time, I would send you this message."

Hearing this, Ni Xian was very surprised, and even figured out that Wei Lingxin was really still alive, but he didn't understand, so he asked, "Sister Lingxin gave it to her? Did she already know that something would happen to her?"

After the question, Ni Xian fell into confusion again. At the award ceremony before the incident, Ni Xian clearly remembered Wei Lingxin's blessing and smile. He was so happy that he even shed tears of excitement.All of that is still fresh in my memory, and there is no trace of anything wrong at all. Could it be that something happened in the next two days?

"Lawyer Si," Ni Xian stared at her without waiting for Si Shengxia to respond, and then said, "Could it be that sister Ling Xin conveyed these words to you a day or two before her death?"

I always heard Wei Lingxin praise Ni Xian as a smart girl, and seeing her today she was really sharp and observant. If she hadn't avoided reality in the past two years and was unwilling to accept Wei Lingxin's departure, she might have found some clues long ago.

She even felt that if she got rid of her obsession with Wei Lingxin, she would soon discover that Xia Cen's identity was not certain.

For some reason, Si Shengxia silently began to look forward to it.

"Yes." From a professional standpoint, Si Shengxia's attitude has not changed from the beginning to the end. What's more, what she did was indeed in accordance with the client's request, and it is even more reasonable. Even if Ni Xian finds out in the future Xia Cen's identity has nothing to do with him, "As Wei Lingxin's lawyer, I will only do what she told me."

The more Ni Xian listened, the more confused he became, "Did Ling Xin just say that?"

"Well, that's all." Si Shengxia's tone was strict and modest, showing his usual attitude towards customers, "I think you two appearing together in public may attract some people's attention, I think Wei Ling Xin is worried about this, so she will explain my words. But she also said that as long as I participate in this matter, I will help you solve the problem together, but according to the situation I know so far, there is no evidence of that year at all , so we just have to wait."

"Wait?" Ni Xian leaned forward and asked softly, "What are you waiting for?"

"Wait for an opportunity."

Ni Xian was completely confused, and felt that Si Shengxia didn't want to tell himself too much, so he asked curiously, "Lawyer Si, can I ask you a question?"

Si Shengxia put down the knife and fork, looked straight at Ni Xian, "Excuse me."

"How did you meet Miss Ling Xin?"

"At a friend's gathering eight years ago, I was still a fledgling lawyer, and I didn't have many lawsuits. I didn't expect that she didn't care about my seniority, and she took the initiative to ask me some questions. We met at that time. "Speaking of this matter, Si Shengxia also found it unbelievable at first. After all, Wei Lingxin was the most popular and famous star at that time eight years ago. She would condescend to ask her some legal knowledge, and no one would believe it Bar.

Ni Xian found the point, "Can I ask, what is Ling Xin asking about?"

"Hmm... the issue of inheritance division."

Perhaps it was because the word "inheritance" was too harsh, Ni Xian's heart skipped a beat, "Could it be that time..."

"I don't know the details." Having said this, Si Shengxia had no choice but to raise his hand and pointed towards the sky, "Does Miss Ni believe in the guidance of fate?"

Ni Xian nodded half-believingly, "Believe it."

"I believe that there are arrangements in the dark, and I also believe that Wei Lingxin's matter will not be drowned out like this." According to his past personality, it is absolutely impossible for Si Shengxia to say this sentence, but Wei Lingxin is like this This is a typical case, so she couldn't find evidence and didn't believe it.

The nice phone rang, dispelling all the fog.There is a rather difficult case that Si Shengxia needs to go to the company to handle immediately.

"I'm sorry, the law firm asked me to go back and deal with it right away, do you want me to drive you?"

I thought that if I knew more, I would find the clue, but this made Ni Xian even more confused, and shook his head at Si Shengxia, "I want to sit here for a while, thank you, Lawyer Si."

"It's okay, we are all her friends, we should."

……

After returning to the office, Ni Xian stood in front of her desk, holding a beautiful white gift box in her hand, but she didn't have the courage to open it.

The winter sun was clear and gentle, shining on her body softly and peacefully.And the scripts and materials on the table that she needed to sift through were neatly moved aside by the assistant.

Ni Xian stared fixedly at the gift box for an unknown amount of time, and finally mustered up the courage to open it.

Ning Ke took the work plan and walked to the door of Ni Xian's office. Just as he stood still and was about to knock on the door, he heard choked sobs.

Although he didn't know what happened and there was still a door across, Ning Ke was in a clear mood, and there was probably only one person who could make Ni Xian cry.

Also, this month's birthday is coming soon. In previous years, it was her birthday that she looked forward to the most. She always looked forward to what gift Wei Lingxin would give her.

Noticing that he was holding a document in the distance, Xiao Chen, the assistant who planned to get Ni Xian to sign, waved his hand, "Come back later, I just finished talking to her about work, and President Ni is a bit tired."

Xiao Chen nodded, turned and left with the file in his arms.

……

At eight o'clock in the evening, after finishing his work, Ni Xian drove to a strange place.The car parked at the gate of the community, staring at the comfortable environment inside, with emotion on his face.

The moonlight is sparse and the wind is cold.

Ni Xian walked into the building wearing a slender coat and high heels.

……

Si Shengxia came to Xia Cen after finishing the case, staring at the treadmill with mineral water in his hand, he had been there for 10 minutes.

"I think I should study psychology, specifically to understand the psychological problems that 20-year-old children should have."

Xia Cen breathed rhythmically, "Why, do you want to attack a 20-year-old?"

"NO, NO, NO." Si Shengxia waved his fingers, "It's to let you know what 20-year-old teenagers are doing."

Xia Cen smiled faintly, and ignored this guy, but looked at the glass-like lights outside the window, thoughtfully.

"Do you think she will come?"

Xia Cen slowed down the speed of the treadmill, walked on it, looked back at the gossiping Si Shengxia, narrowed his eyes slightly, "As expected, you opened that box first, and even secretly investigated it."

"No way, this is my professional habit. After all, it belongs to Wei Lingxin. I must prove that it has nothing to do with Wei Lingxin before I can give it to her." Si Shengxia didn't intend to hide it, and was even more frank. , "But don't worry, it's absolutely confidential."

"I understand, that's why I let you get it."

"It's just that I didn't expect that you would have someone who would make you pay like this." Si Shengxia stood aside, almost shoulder to shoulder with Xia Cen, staring at the dark window of the opposite building, "But I don't understand, you did this to make her Get out of Wei Lingxin, or not get out of Wei Lingxin?"

"I just fulfilled a promise to her and gave her a piece of freedom. This has nothing to do with Wei Lingxin."

"free?"

"Do you think that she is free because she is Ni Tian's daughter? Even if she doesn't appear in the entertainment circle, she is destined to be noticed by her status alone. She doesn't live in the villa of the old house, because she wants to leave the control of her parents. But those who can go in and out of the place where they can live will always meet many uncles, seemingly free, but in fact, nothing can escape the eyes of those who care. Her father will know about any trouble, or it will be known by the media." Xia Cen is getting more and more on the treadmill. Walking slower, unscrewed the mineral water and took a sip, "So at that time, she always ran to my house with nothing to do... I thought..."

"You think she just wants to find a little freedom, but in fact, the drunkard's intention is not to drink."

"Alright, at least this place will become her harbor in the future."

"Harbour? What do you mean by this..." With the keenness of Si Shengxia, she naturally sensed what was hidden behind these words, but she interrupted what she was going to say later, and she saw the window on the 22nd floor on the top floor opposite, which had been dark all the time, light up , "Hey, she's really here."

Xia Cen stared at the lighted window with a smile on his face, and muttered to himself, "Welcome home, Ni Xian."

……

The author has something to say: more than 4000 words.

……

The author sits and chatters about the relationship between Wei Lingxin and Ni Xian.

In fact, Wei Lingxin's feelings for Ni Xian are very contradictory, because of the huge difference in age and background, the closer Ni Xian gets, the more Wei Lingxin shrinks back.

It's not that I don't like it, but I'm afraid that the information I think is wrong, so I may lose it.

The older you are, the more you can't afford to lose. 【Ling Xin don't hit me】

As for Wei Lingxin, Ni Xian always felt that he was not mature enough, so he worked hard to act, leaving aside his family relationship to enter the movie.

Time dragged on, so we delayed each other like this.

So, when you can cherish it, you must cherish it.
