ex-wife

Chapter 72

"I'm sorry! This is your privacy, I shouldn't mention it, I just think you are too wronged, really, Xiaoqi, in fact, the one you should hurt most is yourself, you have to treat yourself better!" Lian Tianyu looked It seemed very sincere, and there was no trace of deliberately prying into her privacy.

"But... how do you know?" Chu Qi's voice trembled slightly due to the continuous rain in his throat.This is a secret, an absolute secret, a secret that almost drove her crazy, she was afraid that people would know it, but now that one more person knows it, it doesn't feel so heavy...

Lian Tianyu smiled slightly, and there was a tenderness in her eyes that was close to doting. She saw this kind of eyes the most in Shen Yan's eyes...

He handed her a tissue, "Xiaoqi, don't worry about how I know, some things cannot be hidden, how long can you hide it from your father? Instead, you are holding yourself back too much! You are crying loudly at home. Don't dare?"

Chu Qi sucked her nose with a tissue, her nose was sour, she nodded, and tears fell down.

"Then let's have a good cry first!" Lian Tianyu turned on the stereo, and there was very loud rock music, "Cry, cry louder than this!"

Chu Qi thought of the grievances he had suffered for many days, and with the continuous rain, big tears fell down. At first, he just cried silently, and then wept aloud, because it was covered by the sound of music, and he didn't feel it How earth-shattering I was crying, so that my voice became louder and louder.

Lian Tianyu didn't say anything, just handed her tissues while driving, and a large pile of tissues piled up on her lap unknowingly.Finally, Lian Tianyu handed her her own sleeve...

Without realizing it, she reached out to grab it, but what she caught was Lian Tianyu's hand.Feeling that the texture was not right, I squinted and squinted, feeling ashamed.

"It's okay! Continue to borrow for free!" Lian Tianyu said with a smile.

However, the sound was too loud and Chu Qi couldn't hear it. She turned down the volume and asked, wiping away her tears, "What did you just say?"

"I said..." Lian Tianyu stared at her seriously, "After crying, it's time to laugh."

But how could Chu Qi laugh?Tears were still streaming down, my chest was heaving, and I was sobbing violently.

Lian Tianyu laughed, "Can't you laugh? Look at yourself, Princess Mi has turned into a little cat!" He turned the rearview mirror to face her.

Chu Qi looked in the mirror, screamed "Ah—" and then covered her face and laughed.Today I came out with makeup on!Tears and snot all messed up, all the make-up was gone, plus I spent an afternoon playing around in the pottery shop, and my face still had a lot of mud on it...

And this face actually made a fool of herself in front of Lian Tianyu, how can she be asked to behave in the future!
Lian Tianyu's laughter echoed in his ears, as well as his soft bass, "I've seen how ugly Xiao Qi is, so you can't call me Mr. Lian anymore!"

"What's that called?" She still covered her face with her hands, opened her fingers, and looked at him through her eyes.

"It's called Tianyu. Okay?" He looked intently at the car ahead and smiled slightly, with a beautiful profile.

She swallowed her saliva and didn't speak. She seemed to lack the nerve to deal with men. In the past 25 years, Shen Yan didn't give her a chance to deal with other men. Her head...is blocked now, turn But bend over.

"If Xiaoqi doesn't say anything, I'll take it as an agreement!" Lian Tianyu smiled slightly when she spoke, as if coaxing a child.

"Ah! No..." Chu Qi covered her face, her eyes were exposed between her fingers after crying, more bright and moving.

"Okay! Don't argue! Isn't it just a title? Why do you have to be so rude, Mr. Mr.? You helped me a lot today, so you can be considered a friend! It's normal for me to treat you to dinner! We're here, get out of the car!" He stopped the car, turned to look at her, and laughed, "Are you going to keep covering your face like this?"

Chu Qi bulged her cheeks, but didn't intend to take her hands away.

Lian Tianyu shook his head lightly with a smile, took out a new towel, and sighed, "After crying through a box of tissues, you are amazing! It turns out that someone really can cry louder than rock music!"

That mocking smile bloomed on his lips, but it didn't make people feel embarrassed, but made people feel warm.He wet the towel with water and ordered her with a smile, "Get your hands off!"

There was an irresistible force in his voice, and she inexplicably let go of her hand until he held a towel and wiped her face, the cold water irritated her red skin from crying, and he and Shen Yan were alike. When the smell of fragrant shaving water wafted in, she felt a burst of panic and embarrassment, and reached out to grab the towel, "I... do it myself!"

"Take it away!" Lian Tianyu snorted, shook off her hand, and continued to wipe her face gently, bit by bit, with a serious look, so scared that she dared not move.

She didn't heave a sigh of relief until he said "Okay", but she heard him say, "Xiao Qi is more beautiful without makeup!"

"Really? Thank you!" She is now numb to the word beautiful.The person who cares the most doesn't know how to appreciate it. What's the point of being beautiful?
As usual, Lian Tianyu got out of the car with a very gentlemanly manner, opened the door for her, and asked her to get off, "Come and try the taste of this restaurant, I personally like it very much!"

It seems that today's meal must be eaten...

"I'll call my mother first, so she won't worry." Chu Qi said after getting off the car.

Lian Tianyu nodded again and again, "Yes! It should be!"

She walked away for a while, and called her mother's cell phone first, but she couldn't get through, so she had to call Shen's house.

"Hello." It wasn't my mother who answered the phone!It's a man!

She covered her phone in a panic, and suddenly dared not speak. The voice seemed to be... Shen Yan?By the way, he said he was going home today!Going back so early?
But... why is she panicking?She did nothing wrong!Really useless!She scolded herself.

Calm yourself down as soon as possible, and talk to the phone again, flat voice?She will too! "Hey, call my mommy to answer the phone."

From the other end came Shen Yan's shout, "Mom! Mom! Answer the phone! It's from Seven!"

"Here we come!" I heard my mother's voice from a distance, and then approached, "Hey, Qibao! Why haven't you come home yet? Shen Yan is back from a business trip!"

"Oh! Got it! I'm with my friends and I'll be back after dinner!" Chu Qi replied pretending to be relaxed.

"But...the family has already cooked your meal!" Mama Mi desperately hoped that Chu Qi would come back.

Shen Yan probably guessed that she was going to eat outside, she heard his voice saying to her mother, "Mom, ask her where to eat, I'll pick her up later."

She was speechless, the last person she wanted to see was him!However, the high-sounding words in front of my mother will still say, "Mom, I heard him, he just came back, let him rest, I will go home by myself!"

"That's good! Then you come back early!" Mama Mi loves this son-in-law so much, Chu Qi said so, of course she understands his hard work and thinks of him.

"Well! Bye bye, Mommy!" Chu Qi put away her phone, not far away, Lian Tianyu was waiting for her.

"Okay?" Lian Tianyu smiled.

"Hmm! Let's go!" She was not used to looking into another man's eyes, she looked straight ahead, and entered the restaurant with him.

When ordering, Lian Tianyu had a strange expression, "I remember the first time I invited Xiaoqi to dinner, Xiaoqi ordered these dishes, tuna fish slices, fried soft duck with lemon, pre-fried big prawns, salty Egg steamed meat pie, and white porridge, right?"

Chu Qi was slightly surprised, "Mr. Lian, you have a really good memory!"

"I said you can't be called Mr. Lian! Call me Tianyu or something else..." He smiled strangely, "The uglier the nickname, the closer the relationship. I don't mind, as long as it is not called Mr. Lian!"

"Then it's still...Brother Tianyu?" Chu Qi made a compromise choice.

"Brother?" Lian Tianyu chuckled, "Okay! Brother is brother!"

The tall man suddenly made a comical movement, looking around slyly, but lowered his voice, "Shen Yan is not here today, you can eat whatever you want! Let your stomach go!"

This time Chu Qi was amused by his appearance, causing all the guests in the restaurant to look at her.She quickly covered her mouth, stared and complained to him, "It's all your fault! You made me look ugly!"

Lian Tianyu sat up straight and smiled, "It's not easy to make the princess smile!"

Chu Qi pursed her lips and chuckled, "Mr. Lian..."

"Huh?" Lian Tianyu frowned, and stretched his face unhappily.

Chu Qi came to his senses, and laughed, "Eh...forgot again! Brother Tianyu, I can't tell you're quite humorous! I thought...hehe!"

"What do you think? Do you think I'm fierce?" Lian Tianyu reported the name of the dish just now to the waiter, added another serving of dessert ice cream, and then looked at Chu Qi, waiting for her answer.

Chu Qi smiled, "I thought that someone who loves his sister as much as you must be a strict elder brother!"

Lian Tianyu shook his head, "It's one thing to treat a younger sister, but another thing to treat girls outside!"

"It sounds like Brother Tianyu is very experienced. There are many girls out there?" Chu Qi's female nature - gossip was exposed.

Lian Tianyu looked at her and smiled, "Why does Xiaoqi always like to ask this question? It's easy for me to misunderstand!"

"Ah—then pretend I didn't ask!" Chu Qi vaguely felt that this topic wasn't fun...

Lian Tianyu just smiled and didn't say any more.

"What do Xiaoqi think of this restaurant?" Lian Tianyu asked after a moment of silence.

Chu Qi looked around and nodded slightly, "It's okay... But, I don't understand why Brother Tianyu likes this place."

"Oh? Why can't I like it?" Lian Tianyu became interested.

"The color tone and style here are all suitable for girls! A man like Brother Tianyu shouldn't have such a taste." She nodded, emphasizing her own judgment.

"Smart!" Lian Tianyu praised, "This is not a place I like to come to, but, as Xiao Qi said, girls like it, so this is usually a place for lovers to date!"

This sentence seems to imply something...

But I don't know if Chu Qi really didn't understand or if he didn't understand, he let out a long "Oh—" and then widened his eyes, "I see! Brother Tianyu really has experience..."

Lian Tianyu knew Chu Qi not long ago, and didn't know how to judge whether Chu Qi was real or not. Seeing that she was sometimes smart and sometimes confused, she was speechless. She was really confused just right...

He glanced at her with a smile, and this little girl turned him around. If he doesn't speak, does it mean he has experience?If he goes to explain or argue that he has no experience, isn't it trying to cover up?
Well, silence is golden...

After the waiter brought the dishes, Lian Tianyu introduced to her, "Actually, this place is more famous for western food and desserts. Chinese food is just so-so! Try it first, and if you can't, switch to western food!"

"Not bad!" Chu Qi ate some shrimp first, "It's delicious! I don't like western food very much! Desserts are okay..." At the end, I added, "Mr. Lian really knows this place very well. "

Lian Tianyu had just picked up a piece of duck meat and was about to stuff it into his mouth. When he heard this, the duck meat fell off. He was stunned. He really dug a hole for himself...

When I looked up, I saw Chu Qi's narrow smile, and I laughed too, "Okay! Let you laugh! As long as you smile, I can say whatever you want! But, you fouled again!"

"What?" Chu Qi hadn't reacted yet.

Lian Tianyu looked at her and smiled, "Did you call Mr. Lian again just now? How would you punish me?"

"Ah?" Chu Qi scratched her hair, "I forgot! Is there still a penalty?"

"Of course! Are you saying that you are punished with three drinks? Or are you fined to invite me back to dinner?" Lian Tianyu looked at her with a smile.

"I don't know how to drink! But it's okay to treat you to dinner!" Chu Qi doesn't regard treating him to dinner as a punishment. She is not a person who likes to take advantage of others. Once she eats someone else, it is only natural to treat her back once. .

"Okay! Then it's settled. Next time I'm free, I'll call you and invite me to dinner!" Lian Tianyu took a sip of his wine, "I'll drink this wine for you!"

Chu Qi looked at his glass, the luster of the red wine was dazzling under the light, "Brother Tianyu, you still have to drive today, can you not drink?"

Lian Tianyu immediately agreed, "Okay! Xiaoqi won't drink if he says he won't drink!"

"It's not that I don't drink if I don't drink it! In short, I hate people who drink!" Chu Qi frowned when he said this.

"Okay! Then I will stop drinking from now on!" Lian Tianyu agreed very readily.

Chu Qi couldn't help muttering, "I really don't know what's so good about wine! Especially strong wine, it's spicy and bitter, and it's uncomfortable when you're drunk. Why do so many people love to drink it!"

Lian Tianyu looked at her with a condescending attitude, "Little girl! You grew up in a honey pot. You don't know that it's windy and rainy outside. Drinking can make people courageous, and it can also numb some pain."

Chu Qi didn't take it seriously, "What do you mean I grew up in a honeypot? Could it be that Brother Tianyu has suffered a lot? But he is a few years older than me, so it sounds like he has been weather-beaten!"

Lian Tianyu chuckled, "You don't know that, do you? I'm different from you. I don't have a family business to inherit. I did it all with my own hands. Otherwise, why are there so many calluses on my hands? The hardships I have suffered , you can't even think of it!"

"Isn't it?" Chu Qi stared at him, looking left and right.

"It's okay if you don't believe me! I've never told anyone else about these things, so you must have heard it wrong! Come, eat more!" Lian Tianyu moved the plate towards her.

"Enough! I can only eat so much!" Chu Qi remembered the stomach ache a few nights ago, so he didn't dare to eat more today, and there was also a tempting ice cream. I haven't eaten ice cream for a long time. Today Have to relive the deliciousness.She put down the bowl and chopsticks and brought the ice cream over.

Lian Tianyu laughed, "Then I've earned it! If you treat me to dinner, you'll only eat this little? Next time you invite me, I'll eat a lot! You can't miss this opportunity to make a fortune. Come and tell me your number." , I will chase you and treat me to dinner next time!"

Chu Qi was teased by him and smiled again, and told him her number.Seeing that even Tianyu had almost finished eating, he ate the ice cream in big gulps so that he would not have to wait.

"Are you full? Are you sure?" Lian Tianyu was ready to pay the bill.

"Hmm! I'm full, thank you!" She looked at the time, it was still early, thinking about taking a taxi back home.

After paying the bill, Lian Tianyu asked her, "Aren't you in a hurry to go home? There is a concert today, it's worth listening to!"

She hesitated a little, not knowing why her heart was hanging high.

"Let's go! I don't know much about music. Xiaoqi is a lady from a famous family. She should know everything. This ticket was given to me by someone else. Don't waste it. If you don't want to go with me, the ticket is for you. You can invite a friend." Let's accompany you!" Lian Tianyu handed her the ticket and stood up, "Whom does Xiao Qi want to date, I'll see you off!"

Chu Qi felt a little guilty when he saw him say this, "This...isn't that good? Why don't we go together!"

"That's really my honor!" Lian Tianyu beamed with joy, "Can Xiao Qi give me a live explanation?"

"no problem!"

The two walked out of the restaurant.

However, as soon as Chu Qi stepped out of the restaurant, Chu Qi felt an invisible huge pressure, and then a voice sounded, "Xiao Qi!"
