~9 min read 1,684 words

"Monster, take a stick from my old Sun!"

The living room was very quiet, only the sound of the TV.

Although Li Heng had watched the 86 version of Journey to the West many times, reviewing it again, he was still very absorbed.

Chen Xiaomi, full of worries, followed for half an episode, but couldn't stay any longer, so she simply got up and came to the window.

Observing the campus outside through the glass, looking for Wang Runwen and the "December" she had never met.

This bending posture was maintained for about 15 minutes. Later, not knowing what she was thinking, she simply opened the door and went to the corridor.

Li Heng just glanced at her and continued watching TV.

Another 20 minutes or so passed, Chen Xiaomi suddenly walked in from outside with big strides, unable to hold back her energy, and asked him directly:

"Which teaching building is that female teacher teaching in?"

Li Heng was indifferent to her question, as if he hadn't heard it, his eyes fixed on the Monkey King on TV, watching with great interest.

Seeing him ignore her, Chen Xiaomi inexplicably had a burst of anger.

However, she knew now was not the time to fight, the competitor from "Harvest" magazine might arrive at any time, she had to contact "December" first.

Chen Xiaomi raised her right wrist to look at her watch, then looked at him, thought for a moment and said:

"You tell me where that female teacher is, and I'll answer you a question about Zijin."

It would be better not to mention Chen Zijin.

Once mentioned, he was filled with nameless anger!

Li Heng, who didn't want to pay attention to her, said coldly: "Is this your upbringing? Using your niece for a transaction?"

Seeing the little bastard who didn't even dare to fart in front of her before talking to her like this, Chen Xiaomi couldn't help it anymore:

"Li Heng, are you qualified to talk to me about upbringing? Are you human? Is this something a human would do?"

Li Heng raised his head, speaking ruthlessly: "Chen Zijin and I are in mutual love, free love for 5 years, so what?

You are so arrogant, managing heaven and earth, why don't you go teach your dad a lesson?"

"You! You bastard..."

Chen Xiaomi was furious, pointing at him, preparing to output violently.

But the current Li Heng was not the Li Heng of the past, he wouldn't indulge her anymore, reaching out to push her hand away.

Scolding: "Noisy! Embarrassing! Go close the door."

Hearing someone arguing in the room, the teacher passing by in the corridor outside curiously poked his head in, then retracted it.

From childhood to adulthood, Chen Xiaomi had always been the "other person's child" in the mouths of parents, always the treasure in the eyes of relatives, classmates, and friends. When had she ever suffered such bossy anger?

At this moment, her little universe exploded directly.

She narrowed her eyes and countered: "Li Heng, you...!"

But only after saying three words, she seemed to suddenly think of something, her whole body trembled, as if struck by lightning, staring blankly at Li Heng, and immediately didn't speak.

At this moment, her mouth was wide open.

It was really wide open, she could see her complete tongue, and it could fit a goose egg.

Then her eyes widened, her pores tightened, and she stared at Li Heng like she had seen a ghost.

The expression on her face was ever-changing. From a coffin shop to a paper horse shop, then to a dead man's pit. Emotions like astonishment, shock, disbelief, and complexity arrived one by one, like Sichuan opera face-changing, as wonderful as it could be!

Just now, because she was in the heat of the argument, she didn't notice, but when she reacted, when she heard that Li Heng's voice was the voice of the writer "December" on the phone.

She was really stupid!

She froze!

She was so scared she didn't dare to talk back!

Her brain short-circuited, a blank space!

When she came, she was full of ambition, imagining one beautiful future after another, now ruthlessly shattered by reality.

Seeing her distinguish his identity, Li Heng simply stopped pretending and said in an unquestionable tone:

"Close the door!"

Chen Xiaomi paused, not moving for a moment.

But seeing his aura fully open, coldly staring at her. She gritted her teeth, and after a long time, in a strange atmosphere she couldn't understand, she turned around slowly and closed the door.

Before closing the door, she seemed not to know what she was doing?

The moment she closed the door, she woke up from the confusion.

At this moment, she wanted to resist, wanted to scold him unscrupulously like before, but the next second, thinking of his identity, thinking of her guarantee to the editor-in-chief and elders, thinking of the face of that bitch Zhou Chunlan.

She hesitated.

Struggling in her heart for a long time, finally she took a few deep breaths, turned her back to Li Heng, and tried hard to suppress the anger that was about to drive her crazy.

Seeing this, Li Heng was not in a hurry, waiting quietly.

Not to mention, when seeing a proud woman who usually held her tail high now obediently listen to him and go close the door, a sense of pleasure rose in his heart for no reason.

Satisfying!

Really satisfying!

Things he imagined for decades in his previous life but couldn't do, finally realized today.

His heart was full of a sense of achievement!

But compared to the humiliation and harm she brought him in his previous life, this was not enough!

Far from enough!

Half a minute later, Chen Xiaomi turned around. At this time, her face was calm as water, and she walked to sit opposite him, her gaze shifting, looking at him.

Watching her recover so quickly, Li Heng had to sigh, this woman is indeed excellent, her mental quality is indeed strong.

Staring at each other for a moment without any emotional color, in order to grasp the initiative, she asked first:

"Are you really December?"

Li Heng smiled, speaking faintly: "There is an old saying called 'having eyes but not recognizing Mount Tai.' It seems your vision is just like that.

Half a year ago, you thought a poor boy wasn't worthy of a noble girl from the Chen family, choosing to rudely kill it with one stick. You didn't even give a chance to propose marriage.

And today, the gold-inlaid jade December is standing in front of you, but you missed a great opportunity in vain."

Hearing this, Chen Xiaomi's face was cloudy and sunny, extremely depressed.

Although she had suspected his identity before, who knew Li Heng would really be December?

Not waiting for her to answer, Li Heng leaned forward slightly, offering the first knife: "By the way, now that we meet again, should I call you Aunt?

Or call you Chen Xiaomi??"

This sounded plain, warm as jade, without any dirty words, and didn't seem aggressive.

But it was poisonous!

Why call her Aunt?

That's naturally following Chen Zijin's address.

If she dared to respond, it would mean the Chen family and Chen Xiaomi agreed to this relationship.

What does this mean?

It means she has to take back those vicious words about Li Heng before, just like eating the shit she laid back down bit by bit while holding her breath.

This is nakedly trampling on her dignity.

At the same time, it also means she is a snobbish villain. Didn't agree to Li Heng and Chen Zijin being together before, oh! Now that there's hope of becoming a great writer, you agree?

Isn't this forcibly slapping herself and the Chen family in the face?

And if she refuses the title of Aunt and calls herself Chen Xiaomi.

Then Li Heng's meaning is quite impolite: Chen Xiaomi is my enemy, why should I publish the novel for you?

In other words: you can get out!

Chen Xiaomi is a smart person, how could she not understand his meaning? Her face turned red, then turned iron blue.

In short, Li Heng's words were hidden needles: calling her Aunt represents her eating her own words, treating her words like farting, a villainous act.

Calling her Chen Xiaomi, then this time it's completely hopeless.

This is a multiple-choice question Li Heng gave her, and the answer can only be one.

Even if she dared to muddle through, Li Heng would definitely turn his face on the spot!

This multiple-choice question is very difficult, one side is humiliation, the other side is dignity.

Choose humiliation, and we can continue to talk about "To Live."

Choose dignity, then you have to pack your bags and leave immediately.

But she had already suffered humiliation once by closing the door just now, if she left like this, wouldn't it be a big loss?

Wouldn't she have suffered grievances in vain?

Besides, if she left like this, wouldn't she become a joke if she went back empty-handed?

Rather than being laughed at by everyone like that, it's better to...

Thinking of the purpose of this trip, thinking of the conversation with the editor-in-chief before leaving, Chen Xiaomi, who was extremely career-oriented, forcibly suppressed the irritability in her heart and finally made a choice.

No way, Li Heng is powerful now, she has no third choice.

Facing each other, Chen Xiaomi said: "I can't make the decision about the title of Aunt alone, I have to go back and ask Zijin's thoughts."

What are Chen Zijin's thoughts?

Does that still need to be asked?

She is enduring humiliation, compromising in disguise, using linguistic art to round out her unbearable situation beautifully.

"Hehe!" Li Heng heard this and gave a neither salty nor light sneer.

The two words "Hehe" sounded particularly harsh in this situation.

As steady as Chen Xiaomi, she couldn't bear his different gaze, turned her head slightly, and her face was covered with embarrassment and shame.
