One Thousand Two Hundred and Sixty Choice (Part 3)
No!
Impossible.
Tang Yu is a man of measure and reason, and he would never let such a thing happen. Besides, although Xingxing is a little naughty, she is not a rebellious person. How dare she do such a thing? Besides, hasn't that little girl been trying to match her with Tang Yu?
Thinking of this, Li Hanyan felt that her idea was extremely absurd, and barely calmed down. Subconsciously looking up, she saw Song Zhixing standing at the corner.
"Xingxing?"
Song Zhixing had been out of the elevator for a while, standing at the corner, and just heard their conversation. She stood there stiffly, feeling a little cold in her hands and feet.
Hearing Li Hanyan calling her, she moved her lips for a long time, "Auntie..."
The middle-aged couple saw her coming back, and saw that her face was not right, so they smiled awkwardly, "Miss Li, then you guys chat, we will go in first."
Without waiting for their answer, the wife pushed her husband and hurried into the house.
Song Zhixing stood there, holding her schoolbag in both hands, and her eyes were dazed and dared not meet Li Hanyan's eyes. Li Hanyan originally thought that she was overthinking, but now seeing her expression, her heart 'beat' and she was uncertain again.
"Don't stand at the door, come in first." Li Hanyan opened the door and tried to calm down. However, when she opened the door, her hands were shaking.
She went in first, and Song Zhixing followed her in. She lowered her head, like a child who had done something wrong, her mind was in a mess. She even prayed that her aunt would not ask anything.
But things don't always go as she wished.
Song Zhixing went in, put down her schoolbag, and sat down on the sofa. Li Hanyan brought her a glass of water and said first: "Sister Li went back first. I heard that your second uncle intends to take you back. Has your second uncle told you?"
Li Hanyan still had a faint smile on her face, still so gentle. But that gentleness, now in Song Zhixing's eyes, felt like a shackle that made her feel guilty and suffocated.
"Aunt..." She put the cup down. The cup was hot, but her fingertips were cold.
Li Hanyan drank a sip of water and sat down opposite her. "Xingxing, do you have a boyfriend?"
She asked straight to the point. Her sight passed over Song Zhixing's flustered little face,
and finally fell on her lips. The rosy little mouth was a little red and swollen, and it was obvious that it was caused by the intense kiss. The scene of her and Tang Yu kissing flashed through Li Hanyan's mind. Her fingers trembled a little, and she could hardly hold the cup in her hand.
"Tell me the truth..." Li Hanyan used a lot of effort to steady herself, "Whatever you say, aunt will believe you."
Song Zhixing was so stuffy that she couldn't breathe.
After a pause, Li Hanyan asked again: "Is it... your second uncle?"
Song Zhixing's fingers almost pinched into her flesh. She wanted to tell the truth, but when she met Li Hanyan's gentle eyes, her throat was hoarse. In the end, she just shook her head with guilt and heaviness, "No..."
It was very difficult to say these two words, as if she had exhausted all her strength. After all, she didn't have the courage, the courage to face the terrible things that might happen. She didn't dare to think about how sad and disappointed her aunt, who had always believed in her, would be if the truth was revealed.
When Li Hanyan heard these two words, she paused for a moment. After a long time, her originally tense body gradually relaxed. The smile on her face also seemed to have eased a lot. She said gently: "If you say no, my aunt will believe you."
"In fact, I also think this is too absurd." Li Hanyan put down the water cup, and the look on her face seemed to be convinced. "You are the younger generation, and your second uncle is the elder. I said that you can't possibly have this kind of relationship. If the two of you are really together, it would be incest."
She kept smiling, but the word "incest" was spoken very heavily, as if she was ringing a warning bell for Song Zhixing. Song Zhixing's heart was throbbing, and he felt uneasy.
However, Li Hanyan continued to speak softly: "Besides, Xingxing, you know so well what I think of your second uncle, you will definitely not do this. Right?"
Li Hanyan looked at Song Zhixing steadily, and gently covered her hand. Song Zhixing couldn't stand that kind of look, and just wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
"Okay, it's getting late, go wash up and go to bed." Originally thought that the aunt would continue to ask, asking who the other party was, when Song Zhixing was melancholy and difficult to explain, Li Hanyan had already spoken.
Hearing this, she breathed a sigh of relief temporarily, but the depression in her heart did not dissipate at all. She looked at Li Hanyan heavily, carried her schoolbag and walked into the room, her steps were messy.
Li Hanyan looked at the back, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared.
That delicate face seemed to be covered with a thick layer of gray in an instant, without any luster. She sat dejectedly on the sofa, as if she had suffered a huge blow, and she couldn't support it. Her face was deeply buried in her palms. For a long time, her fingers were still shaking.
After a long while, as if she had just recovered from her shock, her eyes fell on the magazines piled in front of her.
Every magazine had a report about him.
Looking back, it seemed that the little girl who said she hated him all day long had also flipped through these magazines over and over again.
She took a deep breath, unwilling to think about it anymore, whether to escape or not to believe it. She suppressed the bitterness and pain, took out her cell phone, and dialed a familiar number.
The ringtone rang for a long time before the call was connected.
"Hello."
"Dad, are you asleep?" Li Hanyan made sure her voice sounded normal, "I'm sorry to bother you."
"Not really. It's hard for old people to fall asleep. You called me so late, is there something?"
"The fifth child of the Tang family is getting married next month, will you come?"
"Of course I have to come." Grandpa Li continued, "Even the fifth child is getting married, there's no reason for Tang Yu to keep dragging his feet. So this time, in addition to attending the wedding, I have to talk to the Tang family about your marriage with him."
Li Hanyan heard this and said 'hmm'. Mr. Li was suspicious, "Why? Every time I said I wanted to talk about marriage, you always refused to let me take the initiative to talk. Why did you agree to it when I mentioned it today?"
"..." Li Hanyan opened her lips and wanted to say something, but her chest seemed to be blocked by cotton. She couldn't say a word. In the end, she just sighed, "Didn't you say that the Tang family owed us? Besides, if it weren't for Tang Yu's father, my sister and brother-in-law would have lived well. The marriage between the Tang family and our Li family was also promised by Tang Yu's father from the beginning. Since it's all a matter of fate, I no longer have any objections."
