Rebirth begins with rejecting Qingmei

Chapter 516 Not the ex-husband
  After the surprise.

Xu Xiuwen thought of Li Haimei's hesitation during the phone call in the morning.

I haven’t been home or contacted my family for more than ten years.

This shows that she is fighting against her family in this way.

No matter why she did it.

but now.

She gave up ten years of persistence for him.

Xu Xiuwen also truly felt his weight in Li Haimei's heart.

This warmed his heart.

Xu Xiuwen then remembered what Li Heng said just now.

He immediately said: "You misunderstood, I am not Li Haimei's boyfriend, she and I are friends."

Li Heng chuckled, "Okay, you don't have to hide it from me, my aunt just admitted it herself."

"What did she admit to?" Xu Xiuwen pretended to be stupid.

"If my aunt hadn't personally admitted that you were her boyfriend and asked me to come to you, do you think I would have come to you?"

Xu Xiuwen was silent when he heard this.

Li Heng continued: "My aunt hasn't contacted my family for more than ten years. I was surprised when I received a call from her just now. I didn't expect that my aunt hasn't contacted my family for so long. The first time she contacted me was for a man."

He looked Xu Xiuwen up and down, shook his head and said, "I really don't understand my aunt's perspective. I don't see any advantages in you."

Xu Xiuwen's head was covered with black lines.

He thought to himself, even if you really want to, can you please not say it?

It made me so embarrassed.

Li Heng suddenly laughed and said, "Xu Xiuwen, my aunt is pretty, isn't she?"

"Ah."

"When I was a child, I thought the most beautiful person was my aunt. I wonder what she is like now."

"She is very happy now."

"Yeah, that's good. I just don't know when my aunt will come home."

After finishing speaking, he paused and said, "Let's go. I'll take you out now."

"Okay, thank you."

Then Li Heng turned around and walked out.

Xu Xiuwen followed him.

As soon as he went out, he was blocked by a man in military uniform at the door.

"Master Li, he can't go out with you."

Li Heng's face turned cold and he said unhappily: "Don't block the way. Muni has agreed to let me take him out."

I heard the word Muni.

The man immediately stepped aside.

Seeing this scene, Xu Xiuwen felt relieved.

The room where Xu Xiuwen was imprisoned was the basement.

Following Li Heng, he walked for a long time, passing through several tightly guarded doors, and finally came to the courtyard and saw the sun.

Xu Xiuwen turned around and took a look.

Bathed in the golden sunset, the Li family's house is very grand and full of history.

But he didn't like it at all.

Li Heng said: "Are you free tonight? Since you have come to Kyoto and you are my aunt's boyfriend, I happen to have nothing to do today, so I will take you to a good place."

After learning that Li Heng is Li Haimei's nephew.

Xu Xiuwen doesn't mind building a good relationship with Li Heng.

It just so happens that he really has nothing to do at night, so you can accompany him to a "good place".

"I have time, but please wait for me and I'll make a call."

"Okay, then you go ahead and fight. I'll pick you up later."

Xu Xiuwen nodded, took his cell phone and started calling Gu Pandi.

Gu Pandi stayed in the hotel all afternoon.

Almost all afternoon, she stood behind the window, staring at the sky outside.

As the time got later and later, Xu Xiuwen still didn't come back.

She also became increasingly nervous.

She has already thought about it, at most 6 o'clock.

It doesn’t matter if it’s dark or not.

She has to call.

It's almost 6 o'clock.

The phone rang suddenly.

She immediately picked it up and took a look. It was Xiao Xu's phone number.

Gu Pandi answered the call immediately and asked nervously, "Xiao Xu, where are you? Are you okay? How are you?"

Three questions in a row showed that Gu Pandi was worried about him.

Xu Xiuwen smiled and said: "Aunt Gu, I'm fine, don't worry. I'll have something to do later, so I might go back to the hotel later."

After Gu Pandi heard his words, she gradually felt relieved.

"okay, I get it."

Then hung up the phone.

Xu Xiuwen called Li Haimei again.

The call was answered quickly.

"Hey, why don't you say anything?" Xu Xiuwen asked with a smile.

"Are you out?"

"Well, it's out."

"They didn't make things difficult for you, right?"

"No, just asked me some questions about you."

"Ah."

"You hid so much from me. Why didn't you tell me your background earlier?"

"You didn't even ask me."

Li Haimei's tone was a little cold, making it impossible to feel that she had the slightest pride in this.

"That seems to be the case." Xu Xiuwen chuckled.

"By the way, how did you know that I was invited by them?"

"Second Brother Zhao told me."

"Brother Zhao? Who is he?"

Li Haimei said: "Zhao Jinping."

The smile on Xu Xiuwen's face stopped abruptly.

Li Haimei reacted quickly and immediately noticed Xu Xiuwen's emotional changes through his breathing.

"Why don't you speak?"

"I said, will you answer me?"

"Yes!" Li Haimei said without hesitation.

"But I don't want to ask anymore. I'm afraid that the answer I hear is not what I want to hear."

"Xu Xiuwen! Do you think this is interesting?"

"What's wrong with me."

"You want to talk or not." Li Haimei's mood suddenly rose, and her tone became a bit colder.

"Okay, let me tell you. What does Zhao Jinping have to do with you? He...is your ex-husband, right?"

Xu Xiuwen finally asked the question that had been bothering him for a long time.

Li Haimei didn't expect him to ask about this at all.

I was stunned when I heard it.

A full half minute passed.

She just chuckled, but immediately held it back.

"Are you jealous now?"

"Yes, I feel very unhappy when I think about him being your ex-husband."

Li Haimei laughed again, and then explained: "You misunderstood. Brother Zhao is my brother's friend. We grew up together. He has always regarded me as his sister, and I have always regarded him as my brother. He is not me. My ex-husband, I don’t have one either…” She rushed past him from behind.

"Really?"

"Believe it or not."

A smile suddenly appeared on Xu Xiuwen's face, "It's better that he is not your ex-husband, then I will feel relieved."

Li Haimei murmured softly, "You are quite small-minded, but I have obviously helped you..."

"I have something else to ask you."

"Well, you ask."

"Is Li Heng your nephew?"

"Yes. He is my brother's son."

"He knows about our relationship, did you tell him?"

"Ah."

"why?"

"He kept asking about our relationship. If I didn't tell him, he wouldn't want to find you."

"In that case, wouldn't your elder brother know about our relationship soon?"

"Do you think I can hide our relationship from him without telling him? You think too simply." "If your brother knew about our relationship, would he be against us?"

"No need to ask, he will definitely object. He is an old-fashioned person."

"What should I do?"

"If he threatens you to leave me, will you do it?"

Xu Xiuwen did not answer immediately, but after thinking carefully for a few seconds, he gave an answer.

"will not."

Li Haimei breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

"Don't worry, I broke up with him. He is opposed to it, but he will not interfere in my affairs."

"That's good."

"Okay, it's getting late. You should go back and rest early. You must have been scared today, right?"

"It's okay, but I can't go back for the time being. Your nephew said he would take me to a place."

"Li Heng?"

"It's him."

"Then go ahead. I just have something to deal with..."

"it is good……"

After ending the phone call with Li Haimei.

As soon as Xu Xiuwen turned around, a car stopped not far behind him.

He took a closer look and saw that it was a black Audi A8.

It seems to be the latest model.

Xu Xiuwen estimated that the price of this car would start at least 100 million.

If it is the top configuration, it may be almost 200 million.

Compared with the Audi A8 in front of me, Xu Xiuwen's BMW is simply not worth mentioning.

With Li Heng's family background, Xu Xiuwen would not be surprised if he drives an Audi A8.

What really surprised him was the pass attached to it.

Too many to count.

There are so many passes, why don’t they just open them all over Kyoto?

Most people don't have this ability.

But when I think about the situation of the Li family.

He felt like it was nothing again.

Then Li Heng drove himself and left Li's house with Xu Xiuwen.

Xu Xiuwen didn't know much about the roads in Kyoto, and he couldn't know where he was going by the roads.

Soon the car drove to a road with not many cars, then turned into an alley and drove to a large courtyard.

Xu Xiuwen sat in the car and looked at the courtyard in front of the car.

When Li Heng saw it, he introduced it: "This restaurant is a time-honored restaurant, but most people don't know it. Even if they know it and want to eat here, unless they are brought here by regular customers, this restaurant will not accept it."

While talking, the guard saw the car, confirmed the pass on it, and opened the door.

Li Heng slowly drove the car into the compound.

After entering the gate of the compound, the inside suddenly became bright.

Several cars have been parked in the yard.

As soon as Li Heng parked the car, a middle-aged man came up to him from the side.

This middle-aged man was wearing a red robe and looked wealthy.

Wait until Li Heng gets off the car.

The man responded with a meaty smile: "Young Master Li, what are your plans for today?"

Li Heng glanced at him, his expression slightly cold.

"Give me a larger courtyard, bring out all your signature dishes, and prepare a few bottles of your special rice wine. I want to have some wine with my friends."

"Okay, Mr. Li, please wait a moment."

After speaking, the man led Li Heng and Xu Xiuwen through several doorways and came to a large courtyard.

There is a small river and a pavilion in the yard, which is very suitable for drinking tea and drinking water.

The man did not stop and continued to move forward.

There is a large room directly ahead.

After entering the house.

Inside is a place to eat.

But all the decorations are full of antique charm.

From the color and aroma of the dining table and seats, Xu Xiuwen guessed that they might be made of huanghuali wood.

All the furnishings in this room reflect the heritage of this hotel.

Xu Xiuwen asked casually: "Li Heng, how does the food here taste?"

Li Heng said confidently: "The chefs here are all Cixi's imperial chefs for generations. You won't be able to eat better dishes than here anywhere else."

Hearing what he said, Xu Xiuwen couldn't help but get excited.

While waiting.

Li Heng asked again how he and Li Haimei met.

It was impossible for Xu Xiuwen to tell him all the facts.

He put some spin on the story.

I heard that Li Haimei was almost drugged.

Li Heng's face was livid, and his fists were clenched tightly, as if he wanted to hit someone.

After hearing that Xu Xiuwen saved Li Haimei, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Xu Xiuwen's eyes, full of gratitude.

Xu Xiuwen took advantage of the situation and asked, "Do you and your aunt have a good relationship?"

Li Heng said: "Well, I am 10 years younger than my aunt. Before I was 8 years old, I was almost raised by her. But since she left home, I have never seen her again."

"Xu Xiuwen, tell me more about my aunt."

"Okay. Li Haimei..."

During the chat.

Unconsciously, the relationship between the two people was brought closer.

Li Heng suddenly said: "Xu Xiuwen, although you are my aunt's boyfriend, you are 7 years younger than me. I will not call you uncle."

Xu Xiuwen smiled bitterly and said, "I understand."

"Let's do this. If you really marry my aunt in the future, I will call you uncle again. Before that, we will still get along as friends."

Xu Xiuwen's eyes lit up, "Okay."

"I'm a few years older than you. From now on, you can call me Brother Heng. In this place in Kyoto, if someone doesn't open their eyes, just tell me my name."

"Okay, Brother Heng, you can call me Xiuwen from now on."

"Okay, fix the article."

The two had just decided what they would call each other in the future.

The restaurant has started to serve food.

In a blink of an eye, the table was covered.

Looking at the exquisite dishes in front of me.

Xu Xiuwen was dazzled.

He finally understood the pain of Cixi eating.

Because he also suffers from difficulty in choosing.
  Even one bite of so many dishes is enough to fill you up.

After serving the food.

A waitress came in carrying a wooden tray.

There are five white jade wine bottles on the plate.

After the waitress put down all the white jade wine bottles, she turned to Li Heng and said: "Dear guest, this is our store's special rice wine. It has a strong stamina. Please do it according to your ability."

Li Heng nodded.

Then, the waitress opened the white jade wine bottle and prepared to pour wine for the two of them.

Li Heng waved his hand and said, "Okay, I don't need your service here. You can go down."

The waitresses obeyed and left the room.

Li Heng picked up a white jade wine bottle, opened the lid, and poured himself a bowl of wine.

Xu Xiuwen followed suit and poured himself a bowl.

The rice wine in this shop seems to be specially made.

As soon as the lid is opened.

The aroma of rice wine hits your nose.

The color of rice wine is white but not turbid, clear but not light.

At first glance, it looks like high-quality rice wine.

After Li Heng poured the rice wine into the bowl, he held the bowl and said, "Xiuwen, I'd like to give you this first bowl of wine. Thank you for saving my aunt."

After he finished speaking, he drank the rice wine in the bowl in one gulp.

Seeing how happy he was, Xu Xiuwen naturally couldn't hold it, so he could only drink the rice wine in the bowl in one gulp.

As soon as the drink was in his mouth, Xu Xiuwen's eyes suddenly lit up.

This rice wine is sweet but not greasy, sour but not astringent, and has a sweet and mellow taste that is impressive.

Xu Xiuwen put down the wine bowl and praised: "Good wine, good wine."

Li Heng smiled and said: "Xiuwen, try the food here again and see if it suits your taste."

Xu Xiuwen picked up the chopsticks and took a chopstick.

"Hmm... Not bad, not bad, it tastes really good."
