Li Xin's tone couldn't hide her excitement, but her mood couldn't hide her disappointment.
After all, it was her first child and Shen Jing's first child who was aborted.
Li Xin's heart was full of hatred when she thought of what Shen Jing had done to her, but the child was right, it was also a life.
"Aji, I will go abroad in one week." Li Xin said on the other end of the phone.
This sentence seemed like a heavy bomb, which made her burnt on the outside and tender on the inside, catching her off guard.
"You have decided, I will support you." Meng Ji was silent.
Jiang Xicheng is gone, and now Li Xin is also gone. She is the only one left in the capital, in the golden cage that Lu Ye built for herself.
But Meng Ji was happy for Li Xin.
She was free, as if she was free too.
——
After hanging up the phone with Li Xin, Meng Ji sat on the bed and wandered for a long time, as if he had no energy to do anything.
She walked into the cloakroom, chose a black dance suit, and prepared to go to the dance studio on the first floor to practice her basic skills.
"Pa-" Meng Ji turned on the light switch.
There was a mirror on the wall, and she stood in the center of the room, looking a little small.
This dance studio was built on the third day after Lu Ye forced her to do it. It turned out to be a home theater.
Perhaps it was because of some residual guilt in Lu Ye's heart that he arranged such an exclusive place for her.
Meng Ji closed his eyes and danced freely in this small world.
She was swaying as much as she could, with pictures of some people around her in her mind.
Lu Ye didn't know when he came back from the company. He was going upstairs to get something from the study.
As he passed the stairs, he heard footsteps in the dance studio.
He walked over following the sound and saw Meng Ji wearing a rare dance costume and dancing ballet inside.
The familiar dance posture appeared in the many days and nights when he didn't get her.
Every late night, Lu Ye fantasized about Meng Ji wearing dance clothes and dancing for him with his soft figure.
Like when they first met.
Meng Ji's slender waist twists, jade arms are soft, slender neck, and straight back, every rotation is like a noble swan.
There is no music, Meng Ji is dancing as he pleases.
With his eyes closed, the senses in other parts of his body were amplified. Meng Ji heard the birds chirping outside the window, the sound of running water on the rockery, the plop of Jiang Xicheng and himself practicing swimming again and again, and Li Xin's hearty laughter... ...
Those sounds danced on the strings of the cello.
Then the string broke.
Meng Ji's steps were unsteady, he fell to the ground and rolled several times.
Lu Ye came to his senses from her dancing and quickly ran to her, ready to pick up Meng Ji.
As soon as Meng Ji opened his eyes, a pair of suit and leather shoes appeared in front of him.
The sun shone in from the window, which was a bit dazzling. She squinted her eyes and looked up.
Oh, it turned out to be Lu Ye.
It can only be him.
Lu Ye's eyes were dark and unclear. He was about to speak, but Meng Ji's knees turned red.
He wanted to ask her if it hurt.
But Lu Ye saw Meng Ji looking at him expressionlessly, his eyes were blank, and two lines of tears flowed down his eye sockets.
His mouth opened and closed again.
"I'm going out in the evening and won't be back for dinner." Lu Ye finally didn't dare to look at her eyes, lowered his eyes and avoided them.
Meng Ji sat slumped on the ground, lifeless, as if he was accusing him of everything he had done to Meng Ji.
Lu Ye turned around and walked hastily. He also didn't go to the study and left as if running away.
The sound of a car sounded outside the manor, and Lu Ye went out again.
Drop after drop of transparent water fell on the ground, and only then did Meng Ji realize that he was crying.
Maybe the sadness was so deep that she couldn't feel the tears rolling down her cheeks at all.
"Master Lu, come out for a drink."
As soon as he got in the car, Shen Jing's phone call came in.
Lu Ye raised his head and looked out the window. The sunshine outside was dazzling. It was still daytime, and Shen Jing on the other end was already talking a little loudly.
I don’t know how much Shen Jing drank alone.
For some reason, Meng Ji's helpless expression just now appeared in Lu Ye's eyes again.
He reached out and tugged on his tie and breathed a sigh of relief, "Wait."
"Go to the club." Lu Ye told the front, then leaned on the back of the car and fell asleep with his eyes closed.
Chen Mu changed the direction and drove the car slowly to the Golden Club.
Before getting married, this was where Lu Ye, Shen Jing and their group of young masters from the Beijing circle often stayed.
They get drunk late at night, go wild and look for excitement.
The parking boy at the door knew the Lu family's license plate number. As soon as the car drove into the door, the boy stepped forward and took the key.
"Second Master Lu, Master Shen is waiting for you in the private room."
Lu Ye nodded and walked in.
He walked to their old private room with ease and pushed the door open.
The smell of alcohol hit his face, and there were many wine bottles lying on the ground. Shen Jing was half lying on the leather sofa, with his hair messy.
Hearing the door open, he stretched himself out and took a look, then lay down again.
"Here he comes." His tone was a little decadent.
Lu Ye frowned. He had a mysophobia and avoided the garbage on the ground. He walked to sit down not far from Shen Jing.
They were the only two people in the room.
Come to think of it, Shen Jing's song was filled with thousands of flowers, and not a single leaf touched him.
This time, he was completely fooled by Li Xin.
Young Master Shen has a rough love life. How can others see this sadness.
Neither of them were in high spirits, and each had their own worries.
Still trapped by love.
Lu Ye poured himself a glass of red wine, and the diamond on the wedding ring flashed into his eyes under the light.
He raised his head and took a sip of the drink in his glass, his throat rolling.
"Do you regret it?" He turned his head and looked at Shen Jing who looked embarrassed.
If it weren't for Meng Ji, Lu Ye would probably laugh at Shen Jing's appearance.
As for that?
Isn't she just a woman?
But now the situation is different, and Lu Ye really feels the same.
Shen Jing chuckled, his unruly face showing a bit of sadness under the light, and then said firmly, "I don't regret it."
Lu Ye couldn't see him like this.
Because the more freely Shen Jing lets go, the more disgusting he becomes and how cruel he is to Meng Ji.
He knew what he was doing was wrong, but Lu Ye just couldn't bear to do it.
After all, he was too selfish and couldn't bear to be cruel to himself.
Shen Jing sat up and served Lu Yeman the wine, "Are you really not going to let Meng Ji go?"
Kill people and kill your heart.
Obviously Lu Ye came to accompany Shen Jing, but on the other hand, he also came to enlighten him.
As a result, now that the topic has returned to him, Lu Ye is a little irritated.
Meng Ji has asked himself this question many times.
"Aye, love is giving, not robbing."
"We were all wrong."
"Bang." Shen Jing touched his cup, and the collision made a crisp sound.
Lu Ye held the wine glass without moving, his eyes full of confusion.
is it wrong?
By now, it must be a mistake.
Lu Ye lowered his head in pain, humble and hurt. Should he let Meng Ji go like Shen Jing did?
"If you really want to be with Meng Ji for a long time, it's better to let go for now." Shen Jing's voice rang in his ears.
Lu Ye himself knew how much Meng Ji hated Lu Ye.
She really doesn't love him.
So if she really let go, she would be like an out-of-control kite, and the thread holding Meng Ji would not be firmly in his hand.
He didn't dare to gamble.
But he remembered Meng Ji's sad look at home just now. When he first met her, Meng Ji was still very smart.
After following him for so long, Meng Ji even squandered his girlishness and vitality.
All the beauty has disappeared.
Lu Ye was silent for a long time, just muttering and drinking.
Shen Jing sighed.
The two of them have different personalities, Lu Ye is more paranoid than him.
So for some things, no matter how much he said, Lu Ye could only figure it out by himself.
What kind of relationship he and Meng Ji will have in the end depends on Lu Ye himself.
See if he is willing to let go.
