His Majesty is Scheming - C229
Ling Mengzhu was in the middle of weeding in her straw hat when she suddenly heard her phone ring. However, she only raised her eyebrows to take a look at the house before lowering her head and continuing her work. Her phone had been ringing for the whole morning, it was almost all from Long Zhenghao, and she almost couldn’t hold it in anymore. When he thought about his agreement with Liang Jia, he gave up this idea.
Long Zhenghao could use his phone to prove that he was safe, so she didn’t have to worry about him anymore. She was afraid that if she answered the phone, she would be unwilling to return to his side, and then … Liang Jia would definitely not let her go so easily.
“Zhu Zhu, let’s see who called you.” Mrs. Ling took the phone out of the room and handed it to her.
“Mom, it’s a message, not a phone call. Just leave it for now.” Ling Mengzhu did not reach out to answer the phone, but continued busying herself.
“You read the information first. Alright, you don’t need to look for work here. It doesn’t matter if you don’t get rid of these grasses.” Madam Ling pulled her up from the ground. Ever since she had returned here, Ling Mengzhu had been working non-stop. She had given way to whatever she should or should not do. She really didn’t understand why she was doing this. Could it really make her feel better?
Ling Mengzhu took the phone and opened the message: Ling Mengzhu, I’ll give you a day to hurry back, or else you’ll face the consequences!
Seeing this message, Ling Mengzhan’s first thought was that it was funny. This tyrannical man, did he really think that he was the Emperor of the Heavens? He commanded her in this tone. Wasn’t he afraid of infuriating her and making her feel like she didn’t want to go back?
She wanted to go back, but she couldn’t, so she was destined not to go back for a day. Heart… It was starting to hurt again. Ling Meng Zhu clenched her teeth and pressed her thumb on the shut down button. ‘Ding!’, her phone was turned off.
“Oh, Mrs. Ling, do you want to come and play cards?” Mrs. Ling was hesitating on whether or not she should go, when Ling Mengzhu spoke up first, “Auntie Zhang, I’ll fight with you guys.” After saying that, he walked towards the Zhang Clan Head with a smile.
Mrs. Ling followed behind her. This was the first time she had heard Ling Mengzhu yelling that she was going to play cards. It seemed that this child had been greatly provoked. Normally, this kind of stimulation was on the emotional side. Did he really have a falling out with Long Zhenghao? She thought to herself.
When the few old grannies sat down, Grandma Zhang laughed as she said to Ling Mengzhu, “Heh, look at the rosy faces of the pearls, they should be pretty lucky. We’ll have to light up a few of our old bones later.”
Mrs. Ling took a chair behind Ling Mengzhu and said,” I haven’t asked you old bones to take care of my daughter yet. I don’t think I’ve touched a mahjong in a year. ” Moreover, she felt that Ling Meng Pearl was already exhausted, so how could she have a face full of red light?
Ling Mengzhu could only smile as she waved her hands. It was indeed a long time since he had played mahjong. He was a little proficient at it, but fortunately, he had the guidance of Mrs. Ling behind him. Unfortunately, even with Mrs. Ling accompanying them, the money was still taken out one by one.
“Zhu Zhu, it’s your turn to play cards. What are you thinking about?” Madam Ling bumped into her back, and Ling Mengzhu immediately regained her senses. Stretching out her neck to look at the card table, she said, “Sorry, who was the one who did it. Did something happen?”
“Ai, I don’t think you’re in the mood to film. Come down here, I’ll do it.” Mrs. Ling pulled her off the stage, over her head. This kind of absent-minded playing card, no one can endure it, Ling Mengzhu was too embarrassed to continue playing.
He sat behind Mrs. Ling for a while, looking bored, and then went home. He laid on the bed, holding the closed phone in his hand and stared at the snow-white ceiling, just lying there.
Long Zhenghao didn’t reply after a long time. He angrily picked up the coat on the sofa and was about to leave when he saw Liang Jia standing outside the door, holding her hand as she was about to knock. His voice softened a little and he greeted, “Miss Liang.”
Liang Jia looked at him who looked like he was about to go out and asked, “Are you going out? “Where are you going?”
Long Zhenghao didn’t try to hide it as he said, “Ling Mengzhu and I had a misunderstanding. We have to go find her and bring her back.”
“Where are you going? He has already left. Zhenghao, even if you find her, she might not be with you. You know, she has always had a good relationship with that Boss Lin. She has never stopped contacting him. ”
“How do you know?” Long Zhenghao looked at her with suspicion in his eyes. Liang Jia was speechless, and in a moment of desperation, she said, “I saw her eating with that Boss Lin the day before yesterday, and they seem to be very close.”
Eating with Boss Lin? This was definitely not something that was impossible to happen. He also knew that Ling Dreamy Pearl and Xiao Lin were very close. First to get the card back, then why didn’t he know, maybe still love him?
Long Zhenghao hesitated for a moment before saying to Liang Jia, “Thank you for telling me these, but no matter what happens between her and Boss Lin, I still have to find her. Oh right, Miss Liang, what business do you have with me?”
Liang Jia asked instead of answering, “Why must we get her back? Why did he have to pursue an emotion that did not belong to him and did not suit him? And she loves those who do not look at you? Zhenghao, can’t you see how I like you? ”
Long Zhenghao could completely see what she was thinking. There were too many women who had expressed such feelings for him. There were so many that he couldn’t help but feel annoyed. He also didn’t know if Liang Jia He was suitable for him, because he had never thought about this problem before, nor would he ever think about it.
“I’m sorry, as I said, I only love one woman in my life.” Long Zhenghao said dejectedly, “Miss Liang, thank you for letting me out. I can answer you in any way. Besides marriage, disloyal marriages shouldn’t land on you.”
“But I don’t care if you’re loyal or not!” Liang Jia stared at him and said, “This is just an excuse for you to reject me. You said that you only love one woman in your life? Then what about Ling Meng Pearl? Why do you love her? ”
Long Zhenghao smiled bitterly, why did he love her? Why did I meet her again? You can’t have her when you meet her.
“She’s my ex-wife.” This was the first time he had told this truth to an outsider. He had to say it because he didn’t want Liang Jia to waste any more feelings on him. He had only loved one woman in his life, and he had done it. He had not been able to lie.
Liang Jia’s eyes were wide open as she stared at him in astonishment. She opened her mouth and was tongue-tied for a while before forcing out a few words, “What did you say?”
Ling Mengzhu was his ex-wife. How could this be? How could this be? She no longer had any confidence in defeating Ling Mengzhan. Now that Ling Mengzhu had gained another layer of Lin Mufan’s identity, in this life, would she still have any hope of winning? There shouldn’t be any left …
“Ling Mengzhu is my ex-wife, you didn’t mishear her.” Long Zhenghao repeated himself seriously. Seeing the ever-changing expression on Liang Jia’s face, he said, “I’m sorry, Miss Liang. I still have things to attend to.”
Liang Jiashang was unable to recover from the shocking information he gave her. He had no choice but to take a step back and leave his room.
“Miss Liang, I’ll send you home.” Long Zhenghao locked the door and spoke to the stunned Liang Jia.
Liang Jia finally raised her head slightly. She said to him indifferently, “There’s no need. If you have something urgent, go ahead and do it.” After saying that, he took large strides and shakily walked towards the elevator. His body was swaying … It was as if he would collapse in the next moment.
Long Zhenghao drove the car out of the West Sea District and went straight to Hu Chang’s building to find her. Other than through Hu Chang and Wang Xiang, he did not know who else he could find, nor could he go directly to Xiao Lin.
As Wang Xiang was about to give birth, he did not know where she lived. The only person he could find so far was Hu Chang!
When Hu Chang walked out of the company building, she spotted Long Zhenghao at the door. Although she had expected this day to come, she was still shocked by his appearance. She turned around and ran towards the back door.
When Long Zhenghao saw her escape, he immediately took a few steps forward to block her. He looked down at her and said, “Miss Hu, please tell me where the pearl is. I’ll leave immediately after you say it.”
Hu Chang lowered his head and scratched his head. When he looked up, he changed his expression and said with a smile, “Zhenghao, long time no see, are you alright? Looking for beads? She didn’t come to me today. ”
He hoped that this trick would be useful and that he would be able to lure him away with a single move. It was because she couldn’t lose Young Master Xi, and it wasn’t easy for her to pester such a rich customer. If she didn’t swear that she would lose Young Master Xi by talking too much, she would have told him the truth.
“Miss Hu, I’m sure you know where the pearl is. Please tell me.” Long Zhenghao continued to look at her seriously. It seemed like this excuse would have no effect on him at all. Hu Chang was depressed. He reminded himself again and again: I can’t say I can’t say … You will get your retribution if you say so. But looking at the situation, could she not tell the truth?
“Zhenghao, I swear, I really don’t know.” Hu Changzai raised three of his fingers, since he had already made the oath, what did it matter if he sent a few more? She comforted herself with this, and made a prayer gesture to heaven.
It was a pity that the other party still did not believe him. He looked at her doubtfully, and said expressionlessly: “If I didn’t know, then why did you run when you saw me just now? “Miss Hu, is Pearl with you?”
“I didn’t run … I swear again, bead is really not with me.” This oath was true. Her voice was getting louder.
Long Zhenghao sighed and changed his strategy. He looked at her and pleaded, “I know you must have a bitter loyalty, and this is one of it. But you should think about her future. It wouldn’t be worth it if she were to be separated by such a misunderstanding. I love her, and there is no other man in the world who would love her more than I do, but she left me in a rage, and I will find her, no matter how long or how far away I am. ”
With these words, Hu Chang was moved to the point that his nose felt sore. He thought to himself that idiot Ling Mengzhu had given up on such a passionate man. If there was a man that was so infatuated with her, she would definitely marry him without any hesitation.
