The next day, early morning.
Lu Ye moved quickly. When Meng Ji woke up, he saw the "Maternity Contract" on the bedside table.
She didn't quite understand the twists and turns in the contract.
But she was thoughtful and didn't quite believe that Lu Ye would really let her leave, so Meng Ji contacted Li Xin after getting up and asked her if she had a reliable lawyer.
As soon as the call was connected, Li Xin's voice was hoarse than hers.
Two people communicate like ducks having a conversation.
"You last night..." Meng Ji couldn't say the rest. She knew that Li Xin had a boyfriend.
"Aji?"
Li Xin's condition on the other end of the phone didn't seem to be very good.
"Who's calling?" A man's cold voice sounded over there.
Meng Ji sounded familiar.
I always felt like I had heard this voice somewhere, but it didn't sound like Li Xin's boyfriend's voice.
"It's nothing." Meng Ji was a little embarrassed.
It disturbed the warmth between the young lovers, "I'll hang up first."
Meng Ji hurriedly hung up the phone. She was holding the contract in her hand and felt something was wrong.
That voice was really familiar, with a Beijing accent.
But Li Xin's boyfriend is not from Beijing, but from other provinces, and he doesn't speak with a Beijing accent.
Meng Ji has not contacted Li Xin for so long since he came back.
Could it be that this girl has changed her partner?
Thinking about it, Li Xin's boyfriend is a phoenix man, a man who only eats soft food and does not seek to make progress.
Li Xin's family used coercion and inducement to break them up many times.
It doesn’t matter if it’s divided, Meng Ji sighed, let’s wait until the afternoon to give her a shot.
By the way, the two can also make an appointment to have afternoon tea together.
It was almost noon when Meng Ji got up, so she quickly packed herself up.
Then she wore a simple and elegant long skirt, exposed her ankles, and walked downstairs.
A flash of surprise flashed in Aunt Chu's eyes.
It's been a long time since she saw Meng Ji wearing a skirt that gave off a student vibe. It made her look like Meng Ji herself.
The dining table is filled with various meats and fruits.
Meng Ji looked at the food on the table and felt that it was a bit wasteful.
"Madam, this is how you prepare for pregnancy. You need to fully supplement your nutrition." Aunt Chu handed her a pair of chopsticks from across the dining table.
Meng Ji thanked him and took it.
She sat down to prepare the meal, but Lu Ye didn't seem to be at home.
It just so happened that she could enjoy it slowly by herself.
Meng Ji always felt uncomfortable every time Lu Ye was around her.
After lunch, Meng Ji made an appointment with Li Xin, who seemed to be feeling unwell and said he would meet at her home.
Meng Ji sat on the sofa, hesitated for a long time, and decided to send a message to Lu Ye.
Meng Ji: Have you eaten?
"Ding——" Lu Ye's cell phone rang again in the quiet conference room.
This project is a bit tricky, so the senior executives of the Lu Group are still having meetings.
Then the senior staff saw that Mr. Lu's gloomy face suddenly softened.
Lu Ye pursed his lips slightly, hiding a smile, and typed on it with his slender fingers.
"not yet."
Does the little sweet wife want to bring food to herself?
However, the next second, news from Meng Ji came again.
Meng Ji: Just eat. Can I go out in the afternoon?
Lu Ye:? ? ? ?
The senior executives instantly felt the change in Lu Ye's mood.
The face that was so gentle just now is now as cold as frost. Are they, Mr. Lu, just trying to change their faces?
Lu Ye took a deep breath and poked at the phone hard.
Lu Ye: Well, come back soon.
Meng Ji, who was at Jade Manor, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the message on his phone.
She quickly put the contract into her bag and asked Uncle Lin to drive over.
The senior executives in the conference room were even more miserable.
At first, they were only discussing plan one, because when they, Mr. Lu, received a message from an unknown person, his face suddenly changed.
As a result, they are now discussing options two and three.
Several executives' stomachs were already growling, and their faces were full of embarrassment.
"Didn't you eat?" Lu Ye glanced at the man coolly.
"Eat...eat..." the man lowered his head and said.
Lu Ye nodded with satisfaction, "Continue." He motioned to the assistant to continue the ppt.
Two cold words made a group of executives curse in their hearts: vicious capitalism that squeezes people.
——
"Madam, we're here." Uncle Lin stopped the car.
Meng Ji looked at the two big characters "Liyuan" in front of him. This is Li Xin's residence.
When they were in the car just now, Meng Ji took a few glances at the contract.
Seeing no trap, she sighed and packed up the contract and put it in her bag.
"Uncle Lin, please go back first. I'll call you later." Meng Ji got out of the car and thanked Uncle Lin.
"You're welcome, madam." Uncle Lin smiled kindly.
The car drove away slowly.
When Meng Ji walked to the gate, the security guard stopped her. "Miss, you can only go in if you have a key card."
Helpless, she could only call Li Xin.
I called several times, but Li Xin didn't answer.
"Meng Ji?" A familiar voice called her.
Meng Ji turned around and saw that Shen Jing was coming from the other direction of Liyuan.
"What are you doing here?" Shen Jing looked carefree, with a very refreshing look on his face.
Meng Ji pursed his lips. Looking at his appearance, he didn't know which woman's bed he climbed out of.
In the Beijing circle, Meng Ji looked down upon people like Shen Jing who played with girls' feelings the most.
Shen Jing saw that she seemed to be going in to find someone, so he said hello to the security guard.
The security guard nodded and bowed to apologize to Meng Ji and let her go.
Shen Jing greeted her and left.
There are only three families living in Liyuan, one on the mountainside and three on the top. Li Xin's residence is on the top of the mountain.
Meng Ji was going to the mountain, and the security guard who just said that he couldn't see Mount Tai drove a car to take her up.
Good guy, even the car that takes the owner up the mountain is a Porsche.
This is her first time coming to Li Xin's residence. She used to live in Mingshan International.
Meng Ji sighed in his heart, Li Xin is a girl who knows how to enjoy herself.
When they reached the top of the mountain, Meng Ji rang the doorbell. She looked at the address given by Li Xin on her phone and compared it several times.
The door is unlocked...
Meng Ji gently pushed the door open.
She tentatively called out a few times, "Axin, are you there?"
No one responded.
There is also a photo of Li Xin hanging on the wall of the living room, otherwise Meng Ji would really think that he had gone to the wrong place.
There was a noise in the bathroom, Meng Ji walked upstairs and knocked on the door.
There was only the sound of water running inside, and no one answered.
Meng Ji twisted the handle of the bathroom door and it was locked.
Her feet were stained with water, and when she lowered her head, she saw water overflowing from inside.
Also mixed with a hint of red liquid.
Meng Ji's heart began to panic. She knocked on the door hard but no one responded.
"Axin, Axin, are you in there?"
There was only the sound of water running in the bathroom.
Meng Ji was a little anxious, so she turned around to see if there was anything that could break the lock.
Messy clothes were randomly placed on the bed, and there were used white paper balls on the floor.
All of them indicate what just happened here.
She didn't have time to think about it.
Finding Li Xin's baseball bat in the corner of the room, Meng Ji aimed at the bathroom lock and knocked on it.
"Click——"
The door was knocked open by her, and the lock was broken and hung on the door. Li Xin was so frightened by the scene in front of her that she shivered all over.
She hit 120 with trembling fingers.
