delayed love

Chapter 86 Pointing the finger at Lin Xi

Said it was 10 minutes, Lin Xi didn't like to be late, but in the end he stepped on the time and entered the door.

There were not many people in the coffee shop at this time, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw two women sitting inside.

Aunt Rong usually pays attention to maintenance. She is close to 50 years old and looks like she is in her early forties.But Bai Xu's mother next to her was different.

As Aunt Rong's sister-in-law, Bai Xu's mother should be younger, but she has been plagued by serious diseases these years and has been recuperating her body, looking thin and haggard.

In my memory, Bai Xu's mother was a quiet but gentle woman.

So gentle, it can be said that he has no temper.

Lin Xi had never seen her get angry with anyone, and she always had a smile on her face when she saw anyone. She was a real woman from Jiangnan Water Village.But with the death of Bai Xu's father, Bai Xu is not worrying, she seems to have aged a lot overnight.

In recent years, Bai Xu's mother has been living in the nursing home, and it is said that she will only return to the compound during the holidays.

"Aunt Rong." Lin Xi stepped forward, and according to her seniority, she wanted to call Bai Xu's mother Second Aunt, "Second Aunt."

"Xixi, sit down quickly." The second aunt squeezed out a smile, and took her hand to let her sit down.

"You didn't disturb Xixi's work, did you?"

"No." Lin Xi was very patient with Bai Xu's mother, "Is Second Aunt doing well recently?"

"I..." Second Aunt was about to answer, when Aunt Rong who was next to her suddenly said, "Your Second Aunt was in good health some time ago, but she has been feeling unwell these days."

This time frame is too small, which obviously means something.

Coupled with Cheng Si's repeated reminders last night, it was not difficult for Lin Xi to guess the purpose of their trip.

To be precise, it should be Aunt Rong's goal.

The second aunt is soft-tempered and has always been a very easy-going person.So after marrying into the Bai family, she had no right to speak in major matters, and she always listened to Aunt Rong, who said what Aunt Rong said, and she rarely refuted.

So this time, the second aunt was probably pulled over by Aunt Rong.

That being the case, Lin Xi gave Aunt Rong this opportunity and asked:

"Is Second Aunt anything bothering you recently?"

Aunt Rong didn't say anything this time, she just looked at Bai Xu's mother twice more.

After a while, the second aunt sighed, "It's not Bai Xu. I thought he should have grown up after working for a few years. Who knows...he still likes to mess around so much."

"Xixi should have heard about Xiao Xu's incident with the youngest son of the Lu family not long ago." Aunt Rong spoke beside her.

Just when the waiter came over, Lin Xi nodded slightly, motioning for the waiter to put down the coffee.

After the person left, she replied unhurriedly: "I heard. I went back to the courtyard immediately and learned about the situation from my fourth brother."

"It should be an accident, Second Aunt, don't be too upset. I heard that the Lu family didn't care about it, and Lu Bei didn't seem to be seriously injured."

Aunt Rong: "That's because your third brother came forward."

She seemed to be deliberately emphasizing, Lin Xi raised her eyes, and heard Aunt Rong say again: "This time it doesn't seem like an accident, Xiao Xu seems to have bumped into it on purpose."

"Where did Aunt Rong hear this?" Lin Xi felt that the second aunt was so sad, but in fact, half of the reason was that Aunt Rong was fanning the flames, adding to the troubles.

"It's not the same as the version I heard. Brother Wu and Lu Bei don't know each other. It's just for no reason. Why do you say this on purpose?"

"I don't think so. Xiao Xu has always cared about you, and Lu Bei has been pestering you, maybe he can really do this kind of thing for you."

As soon as this remark came out, it was no longer an intentional or unintentional target.

Completely point the finger at Lin Xi.

After looking at each other, Lin Xi suddenly smiled.

Bai Rong frowned, Lin Xi looked like her father when she wasn't smiling, the kind of eyes that didn't care about anything.

Her father is a typical "nerd", a straight man in science and engineering.All my heart is on research.It doesn't look like the queen of the door at all. Compared with the boss of the Lin family, she is less cold and more rigid.

And when Lin Xi laughed, she looked a bit like her mother.

Thinking of that woman, Bai Rong clenched his hands tightly.

Even after so many years, she still hates the Lin family couple.

Especially Lin Xi's mother.

This has become a hurdle she can't get past.

Back then, she lost the upbringing of the eldest lady and complained hysterically, while Lin Xi's father just frowned.Looking at Lin Xi's mother again, she seemed to stay out of the matter the whole time, sitting in her seat noblely, smiling shallowly at her.

In stark contrast to her embarrassment at that moment, the woman didn't say anything at that moment, but every frown and smile was insulting.

"Lu Bei and I can't talk about being entangled. We had no contact a long time ago. Aunt Rong really wronged me."

Even if the elders are opposite, Lin Xi has no intention of giving face at all.To put it bluntly:

"Aunt Rong just said straight up when she saw that I didn't like it. There's no need to beat around the bush and convict me. It would be too flattering for me to say that Brother Wu did this kind of thing for me."

The smile on Bai Rong's face faded.

The atmosphere froze in an instant, and the second aunt was frightened, and quickly explained: "No, Xixi, don't think too much. We just heard some rumors outside, so don't take it to heart."

The second aunt was afraid that she would be angry, "Actually, this time I came here, Auntie wanted you to help persuade Bai Xu."

"I heard that he was dishonest again last night. Please help Auntie talk about him."

"That kid, he really doesn't listen to anyone now. It doesn't work if your third brother teaches him like that."

"He is not close to anyone, but he has a better relationship with you. So there is really nothing Auntie can do..."

"I'm afraid that if he continues like this, he will do something outrageous like before."

"I called him today, but he was also impatient and couldn't listen at all."

"The old man has been pampering him again."

The second aunt sighed heavily, with tears in her eyes.

Lin Xi held her hand instead, "I'm not sure about Fifth Brother's temper, and we were a little unhappy last night. But don't worry, I will try my best to communicate with him to prevent him from making mistakes."

"What happened last night was indeed a misunderstanding, and it was partly due to me."

"I've heard it all, and you're right. It's just that he's a bit impulsive. He doesn't pay attention to the reasons for who is uncomfortable, and he can do whatever he wants. Sigh, I'm spoiled."

What happened last night roughly passed, in fact, it spread in the first place.

Although Qin Yu came forward later to stop the rumors.But if the elders like Second Aunt want to inquire, it is not difficult.

Lin Xi is not someone who likes to cause trouble, and everyone around her knows it.

So the second aunt didn't mean to blame her.

All the problems are Bai Xu's fault.

She still knows what her son is like.

After comforting the second aunt, Lin Xi was going back to the meeting.

"Go back to the car, I'll see Xixi off." Aunt Rong stopped the second aunt, her eyes fell on Lin Xi.
