Rebirth: Different Way

    I don't know if what Shen Xi said in front of the reporter that day pleased her father very well. Two days later, Shen Xi's account increased a lot of money.

    Shen Xi was looking at the house by herself when she received the SMS notification from the bank.

    Since he intends to stay in Zhongjing, he naturally cannot stay in the hotel forever. He didn't want to go back to the Shen family, so buying a house was logical.

    But in one morning, Shen Xi finalized a promising house, a one-bedroom, one-bedroom, hardcover small apartment of more than 70 square meters. After paying the deposit and making an appointment to prepare for the transfer, Shen Xi called Old K with satisfaction and asked him to find a few people to clean up the house.

    Old K was furious about this, saying that he was just a private detective, not Shen Xi's personal housekeeper. But facing Shen Xi's rogue appearance, Old K could only reluctantly agree.

    The problem of the house was solved, and Shen Xi went straight to the nearest 4S store. The last incident in the cemetery made Shen Xi realize the inconvenience of not having a car. Since he plans to settle down, a scooter is also essential for him.

    Shen Xi’s favorite activity before going abroad was racing. At that time, no one in the Shen family had ever questioned his hobby. On the contrary, Shen’s father deliberately did so. Bought him a top-notch sports car.

    Shen Xi loves that car very much, and occasionally secretly delights that Father Shen still remembers him, so she regards the car as an eyeball. In the last life, he sat in that car and stood at the door of the other way for several hours and finally folded himself in. In this life, even though the car was well maintained and had been parked in the Shen family's garage waiting for his master's return, he didn't even want to look at it again.

    Without the pursuit of speed, Shen Xi chose a luxury Mercedes-Benz latest model. However, because it is imported, it is not possible to pick up the car at the moment but need to wait for a while.

    The sales lady looked at Shen Xi nervously, for fear that Shen Xi would change her mind because of this.

    Although Shen Xi felt inconvenienced, she chose to pay the deposit.

    "Xiao Xi?" An unexpected voice sounded from behind

    Shen Xi frowned invisibly, and turned around with surprise on her face, "Cousin?"

    It was Li Mingxuan who stood behind Shen Xi.

    Li Mingxuan's eyes fell on the document in front of Shen Xi, "Xiao Xi wants to buy a car?"

    Shen Xi nodded.

    Li Mingxuan smiled knowingly, thinking of the last time Shen Xi got wet in the cemetery. Seeing Shen Xi's appearance, it seemed that things were about to be done, so Li Mingxuan said naturally, "Have lunch together?" Although he used a suggestion, his tone was full of unquestionableness.

    Shen Xi didn't know when her relationship with Li Mingxuan was good enough to have dinner together, although Li Mingxuan has always shown kindness to him since he returned to China. The last time he fell ill, Li Mingxuan took good care of him , but the more Li Mingxuan is like this, the more vigilant Shen Xi is.

    Thinking only for a moment, Shen Xi has already agreed with a smile.

    The two chatted and got into the car, Shen Xi naturally sat beside Li Mingxuan. A momentary strangeness flashed on Li Mingxuan's face, and the scene of Shen Xi changing clothes in the car the last time appeared in front of him.

    Feeling Xiao Mingxuan's eagerness to move, Li Mingxuan looked out of the car in embarrassment, hiding the abnormality on his face.

    With a silent bitter smile in his heart, Li Mingxuan felt that the self-control he had always been proud of was now a joke.

    I didn't see Shen Xi for several days, Li Mingxuan deliberately wanted to forget about the last hotel. He has been trying to convince himself that everything is just because of a man's instinct. Having said too much, Li Mingxuan himself believed this rhetoric. What surprised him was that the body's reaction was so honest, but it was just a memory, and he almost lost his temper in front of Shen Xi.

    Li Mingxuan's entanglement Shen Xi naturally did not know, fastened her seat belt, Shen Xi looked at Li Mingxuan, "What shall we eat?"

    After the strange moment just now, Li Mingxuan has adjusted his expression. Hearing Shen Xi's question, he tried his best to answer without distraction, "Sichuan cuisine."

    Shen Xi gave Li Mingxuan a strange look. In his memory, Li Mingxuan's taste has always been bland. On the contrary, it is himself who likes this hot taste. Of course, Shen Xi didn't bother to ask why, just nodded casually and said yes.

    The Sichuan restaurant they chose is located in a very remote alley. Facing Shen Xi's obvious doubts, Li Mingxuan explained with a smile, "This is a very famous private restaurant. It only serves regular customers, and few people know it, but the food is delicious."

    Different from the rough environment outside, the interior of the Sichuan restaurant is very elegant and there are not many guests inside, but it is very quiet without the hustle and bustle of ordinary restaurants.

    Li Mingxuan took Shen Xi directly to the private room and ordered one of each of the signature dishes on the recipe.

    Shen Xi upholds the idea of ​​​​according to the guest and the host, and arranged by Li Mingxuan. All the way, Shen Xi has been guessing Li Mingxuan's intention to eat with him, but Li Mingxuan didn't say anything, but was unusually silent, and Shen Xi could only keep her doubts in her heart.

    While Shen Xi was drinking tea, Li Mingxuan stared at Shen Xi with complicated eyes for a long time, and finally sighed silently.

    "Xiao Xi, what are your plans next?" Li Mingxuan said unintentionally.

    Shen Xi's drinking tea stagnates, and suddenly there is a feeling of dust in her heart. He thought about a lot of reasons why Li Mingxuan approached him, all of which were related to Shen Ji. Listening to Li Mingxuan asking casually, Shen Xi sneered in her heart, is this trying to help Shen Ji? He had already expressed in front of reporters that he had no interest in the Shen family. Why did the Shen family still refuse to believe it?

    Suppressed anger rose from her heart, Shen Xi raised her head with a smile, "What does cousin mean?"

    Shen Xi's face was not the gentle smile before, but was replaced by an obvious mockery, Li Mingxuan felt that Shen Xi must have misunderstood something, and said in a deep voice, "Xiao Xi, don't think too much. , I just care about you."

    "Care?" Shen Xi thought this was a blatant irony and asked, "What kind of concern?"

    Not waiting for Li Mingxuan to speak, Shen Xi's face turned cold, "Cousin, if you are asking for eldest brother, then please tell eldest brother, since I said that I have no interest in the Shen family, naturally I will not break my promise. There's really no need to worry about it, big brother."

    "Of course if my father is as worried as my eldest brother, my cousin might as well relay this sentence to him." Shen Xi sneered and added that Li Mingxuan looked at Shen Xi silently, half a voice low. He said, "It has nothing to do with Shen Ji, it's just that I'm worried about you." When he said the word 'you', Li Mingxuan's voice was inaudible.

    Shen Xi's face was full of ridicule, obviously she didn't hear the last 'you'.

    "What does what I do have anything to do with my cousin? My cousin thinks too much. Or my cousin, like my aunt, takes protecting the interests of the Shen family as its own responsibility, for fear that I will enter the Shen family, Split up the Shen family?"

    This is not the first time Li Mingxuan saw Shen Xi's face with a self-deprecating expression, the time the plane met, a certain time in the hospital, Li Mingxuan couldn't remember how many times in total, but this time Shen Xi's The expression really hurt his eyes.

    Li Mingxuan wanted to explain, but couldn't find the right words, so he could only say weakly, "Actually, we all care about you."

    Shen Xi looked at Li Mingxuan in surprise, wondering why Li Mingxuan said this suddenly. After a while, Shen Xi finally couldn't help laughing.

    "Care for me?"

    "Where were you when I was bullied by Shen Cheng? Where were you when I was treated coldly by my father? Where were you when I lived like a transparent person in the Shen family? Where were you when the illegitimate child was being mocked? Even when I was rejected by everyone in the Shen family and guarded like a thief?"

    Shen Xi looked at Li Mingxuan with a sneer. He didn't intend to say that, but he was tempted by Li Mingxuan. He didn't endure anything in prison.

    But the concern in Li Mingxuan's mouth really stimulated him.

    Care? Shen Xi thought to herself, where were you when I was imprisoned in my last life? Where were you when I was in prison begging for nothing? Where were you even when I finally died tragically?

    These words were circling in Shen Xi's mind, and Shen Xi held back hard not to let them blurt out.

    Li Mingxuan looked at Shen Xi weakly, he didn't know what to say.

    Shen Xi's words struck his heart word by word, and he actually felt sad. Li Mingxuan thought to himself, when did this start? It's not that he hasn't heard about Shen Xi's situation before, but every time he just heard it, it didn't leave a trace of ripples in his heart. But this time, seeing Shen Xi's angry expression, Li Mingxuan flashed a word in his heart: distressed.

    But why does he feel distressed? Shen Xi faced all this, didn't he also have a share of the credit? Didn't his indifference make Shen Xi's situation worse?

    "Sorry!" Li Mingxuan could only say this word to Shen Xi with difficulty.

    Shen Xi smiled coldly, "I'm sorry, everyone is just starting from their own interests, who made me destined to be the abandoned son of the Shen family from the beginning. "

    "Now your goals have been achieved. I have already done this. I have neither the ability nor the ability to fight with my elder brother. He and his father should rest assured." Shen Xi gave Li Mingxuan a cold look. , "Cousin, you don't have to bother appearing in front of me anymore."

    Shen Xi turned around and left, opened the private room door, and a strange young man was leaning on the opposite wall and looking at him strangely.

    Shen Xi didn't even bother to look at each other, and went downstairs without hesitation.

    Behind Shen Xi, an unfamiliar man entered the private room with a smile on his face, "Yo, can't tell you a word when asked."

    Li Mingxuan's face was worried, "Why are you here?"

    The man laughed, "I heard that you are here, why do you want to meet again, who would have heard a good show!"

    Li Mingxuan frowned.

    The man didn't care about Li Mingxuan's black face, "This is your little cousin, Shen Xi? It's not as lawless as the rumors say."

    Li Mingxuan was quite dissatisfied with these adjectives now, and gave the man a warning look.

    The man smiled and said, "I told you a long time ago that it's good to meet you in the future, don't treat others as fools like the Shen family. By the way, you won't really be a substitute Shen Ji came to test it, right?"

    Li Mingxuan shook his head, "I'm just worried about myself. What can he do if he doesn't enter the Shen family? Isn't he just as fussy as before."

    "Isn't that what you want to see? If Shen Xi really wants to join the Shen family, you will have a headache."

    Li Mingxuan didn't speak, just smiled bitterly.

    This is a contradictory proposition!
