Sinister Ex-Girlfriend Chapter 198

Chapter 9.16 — Billionaire wife running with the ball

Du company's skyscraper, the president's exclusive elevator.

 

This was the first time Ling Li came to the Du company. Du Chen wanted to be close to his son so he had a smile on his face the whole way, but Ling Li kept his cold expression throughout the journey. The little boy was as cold as an iceberg, completely wasting Du Chen's efforts.

 

Seeing Ling Li making a cold face at Du Chen, Su Xiaosu stood on the other side and blinked at Ling Li constantly, causing Ling Li to have no choice but to lower his head in order to not look at her, otherwise he felt that he wouldn't be able to stop himself from rolling his eyes ——

 

Su Xiaosu, that's enough!

On the 28th floor, the elevator door opened and Su Xiaosu was the first to rush out.

 

“Susu is here!”

 

“Susu, this is the breakfast that Auntie bought you this morning!”

 

“Susu, this is the milk my sister just made for you!”

 

“Susu…”

 

You are not mistaken. In Xinghong Electronics, the most popular character is not their boss, General Su, but this exquisite and cute robot, Su Xiaosu, who can act dumb and act cute.

Su Rui had long been accustomed to it, but when Ling Li, who came out behind them, saw that Su Xiaosu was surrounded by a group of people eating and drinking as she laughs, he finally couldn't hold back the urge and rolled his eyes ——

 

Ling Li remembered that after fighting with Su Xiaosu for the first time and losing, he woke up in the middle of the night and went to the kitchen to get a glass of water. As a result, he saw that Su Xiaosu's head was still lit up in the middle of the night, giggling as she pilfered food from the kitchen.

 

That scene really made Ling Li feel speechless as he recalled it.

 

    Do you think it's good for a robot to be so gluttonous? Isn't she scared that she'll short-circuit from eating so much?

 

Su Xiaosu's answer to Ling Li's question was ——

My motherboard is waterproof and fireproof. Not only can I eat and drink, but I can also cry. Look here, this is the tear-stained face of a beauty.

 

Look! Look! This is called 'tears streaming down my cheeks' and this, this is called —— tears falling like rain!

 

That's just water pouring out from both eyes! 'Tears falling like rain', your sister! Are you trying to cause a flood? (I feel like the author is trying to tsukkomi)

 

It was this so-called “Eighty-one Ways of Shedding Tears” that made our little friend Ling Li want to laugh whenever he saw a girl cry after he grew up. Over time, everyone who knew him knows that he is “inhuman” and “unsympathetic”……

 

In short, because of Su Xiaosu's existence in Ling Li's childhood, the shadow in his childhood was too large, okay?

 

 

“Come to my office.”

 

Su Rui asked Ling Li to come over to watch Su Xiaosu. Ever since he made Xinghong Electronics independent, many financial groups outside have been eyeing Xinghong Electronics' new products and some unlawful groups have hired a large number of computer hackers to invade Xinghong Electronics' main system and steal their research data.

 

Su Rui was an expert among experts at programming artificial intelligence, but he wasn't too adept at system security protection. Fortunately, he knows that Ling Li is a genius hacker. With his cheat halo, Xinghong Electronics was guaranteed to be absolutely safe.

 

    “Oh oh.”

 

Hearing Su Rui's call, Ling Li turned around and followed him into the office. after which Su Rui ordered his assistant not to allow anyone to disturb them.

 

In a blink of an eye, the whole morning passed. After Ling Li used those short hands to help Su Rui encrypt the security system for the entire main system, he was already starving and exhausted.

 

No matter how talented I am, you have to let me eat, right?

 

“I've troubled you.”

 

Su Rui looked at the exhausted little boy, his tone very calm.

 

In fact, he never treated Ling Li as a child.

 

“I owe you a favor for today's affairs. In the future, if you and your mother encounter any troubles, you can come and look for me.”

“En?”

 

Ling Li suddenly raised his head to look at Su Rui, his eyes sharp: “I can solve our problems by myself, thank you for your concern.”

 

“Oh? Really?”

 

Su Rui smiled faintly and looked at Ling Li with a deep gaze: “If that person is your father, would you also take action against him?”

 

    Su Rui knew that Ling Li still had a group of foreign mercenaries, but would he use those people against Du Chen? This was obviously unrealistic. In the original plot of the world, all of Ling Li's cards were used to help Du Chen and Ling Qiyue. Every time Du Chen is in trouble, he would secretly look for help.

 

A father-son confrontation was the only possibility in this world.

 

Father……

 

Ling Li was stunned for a moment. He knew that his mother was busy with the lawsuit recently. Lately, she has been a lot more silent and haggard.

 

Ling Li was clever and sensible. He understood that the reason his mother was working very hard was all for him. He also wants to make his father give up the idea of ​​fighting for custody. But in the past few days, whenever he touched the topic while talking with Du Chen, both people would part on bad terms.

 

Du Chen always treated him like a five-year-old child. Well, even though he is actually only five years old, he already knows a lot, okay?

 

If the matter really reached the point of facing each other in court, Ling Li would naturally stand by his mother's side without hesitation. He believed that even if Du Chen was strong, he would never be able to forcibly take him back to the Du family, right? 

 

Although the current Ling Li's thoughts were already very mature, he has never truly experienced society after all. At this moment, he does not understand that the thing that was hardest to fathom in this world was the human heart……

“Qiyue, I want to see you.”

 

When Ling Qiyue received her mother's call again after many years, she went into a trance.

 

Although her family had brought so much pain and hurt to her, the Ling family left her with more beautiful and warm memories of the past.

 

When she was a child, her mother was gentle, her father was kind and she was also very close to her brother. After growing up, the family's business became bigger and bigger, and her parents got busier. But even then, their family was still harmonious and very happy……

 

Ling Qiyue put down the phone and after hesitating for a long time, she decided to see her mother.

 

The place where the mother and daughter met was a coffee shop. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Ling Qiyue wouldn't have believed that this old lady with a face lined with wrinkles and an expression of someone who has been through a lot, used to be the decent and graceful, well-maintained mother in her memory.

 

“Mom, why are you…”

 

“Ah.”

 

Mother Ling sighed deeply in front of Ling Qiyue: “Qiyue, how are you doing now?”

 

“I'm….. very good, mom, now you're……”

 

“It's good that you're living well.”

 

Ling's mother smiled and interrupted Ling Qiyue's questioning: “I found out about your return from the news. Your son is very cute and has grown up to be very beautiful.”

 

“En, his name is Ling Li and his nickname is Tiantian.” Ling Qiyue's eyes softened immediately when she mentioned her son.

 

A person who hasn't raised children wouldn't understand their parents' kindness. Now, she is also a mother.

 

Seeing Ling Qiyue's happy smile, a complicated expression flashed through Ling's mother's face: “Qiyue, I, I am actually……”

 

“Mom, do you have something to tell me? Tell me!”

 

Before going to the appointment, Ling Qiyue had actually thought about many possibilities and even planned for the worst.

 

Her face was calm now, but her hands were trembling slightly under the table.

 

“It's, it's nothing.”

 

In the end, Ling's mother just smiled at her: “Mom just wanted to see you.”

 

Is that it?

For a while, Ling Qiyue looked at her mother with suspicion: “Mom, you look a lot older. Have you been living poorly these past few years? What about Dad and Big Brother?”

 

Although she still resented them in her heart, Ling Qiyue couldn't help asking.

 

When she left that year, the Ling family had gradually recovered their business because of Du Chen's help. Could it be that Du Chen took out his anger on the Ling family after she left, so the Ling family was downtrodden till this point?

 

At this moment, Ling Qiyue's thoughts were extremely complicated, but when Mother Ling heard Ling Qiyue's inquiry, her expression immediately changed……
