Chapter 55.4 Ji Lin, do you have a first love?

Bai Duanduan was simply baffled, this tone and rhetoric of Ji Lin was really becoming more and more like her own father …… This man, looking quite young on the outside, how come he was so vicissitudes on the inside? If it wasn’t for the fact that Bai Duanduan dined at his house every day and knew that Ji Lin only reads a financial newspaper after breakfast, she would have thought that this man should be listening to a nostalgic radio while eating breakfast ……

“Do you have a grudge against your first love?”

Apart from this reason, Bai Duanduan probably couldn’t really think of any reason why Ji Lin was so hostile towards his first love and ex.

“No.”

“Me too…”

Bai Duanduan almost couldn’t hold back her laughter, she had wanted to comfort Ji Lin herself. At this moment, the two were walking towards the car park when suddenly, for no apparent reason, a large dog rushed over to the side of the road, probably freed from its leash, emotionally unstable, and was barking furiously at the strange pedestrians around, interrupting Bai Duanduan’s thoughts at once.

The owner soon came over and took hold of the dog and left only after calming it down.

Ji Lin frowned and looked at Bai Duanduan, “What did you say just now?”

Bai Duanduan was staring at the direction the dog had left, and then she looked up at Ji Lin, “Ji Lin! Tian Mu is lying!”

Ji Lin was a little confused, “What?”

“He lied to Xie Miao! He definitely violated the non-compete agreement!”

Ji Lin pursed his lips, “I don’t trust Tian Mu either, but we really don’t have any evidence.”

“There is! I’ve found evidence!” Bai Duanduan was almost enlightened, “He definitely knows Lu Shuisheng and is very familiar with him, he should have met him often!”

The large dog that had just passed by and barked at her reminded Bai Duanduan all of a sudden.

“Lu Shuisheng’s teddy dog. He is very aggressive, and will almost invariably bark when he meets a stranger. I met him when I went to the door of the restaurant to answer a client’s phone call earlier. His dog also broke away from him and jumped to the door of the restaurant barking at both the children passing by and me. He looked quite aggressive and only when he met Lu Shuisheng did he stop. The dog only seemed to be friendlier to his acquaintances.”

“And just now! Just now in the restaurant, it was clear that Tian Mu and Lu Shuisheng had clashed and quarreled. Normal dogs are protective of their owners, not to mention that wasn’t Tian Mu a complete stranger to this teddy, just like me, he should have been? But just now, the dog did not bark at Tian Mu, and even came to his feet, sniffed, and even tried to pounce on him. At first, I was completely absorbed by the conflict between Tian Mu and Lu Shuisheng, and did not pay much attention to the dog, but now when I think back, the dog’s posture in pouncing on Tian Mu was not very aggressive, but actually with a bit of pampering and the excitement of suddenly seeing an acquaintance. Pouncing on Tian Mu was not an attempt to attack, but to show affection.”

Although Bai Duanduan noticed the teddy before, she didn’t think about it deeply. Now that she thinks about it, she feels that she understands everything.

After listening to this, Ji Lin’s face really did look grave, “You mean that everything Tian Mu did today was an act?”

“Right.” Bai Duanduan nodded, “Looking back now, don’t you think that all of his reactions today were too appropriate? First he was overly angry, then he was aggrieved, and finally he brought out his tragic life to tell the story, sounding heartfelt and completely playing the emotion card ……”

Ji Lin said approvingly, “I was beginning to think his reaction was a bit too perfect, Xie Miao believed him, I didn’t. Then when you think about it like that, his meeting with Lu Shuisheng also amounted to a pre-arranged meeting.”

“Exactly.” The more Bai Duanduan combed through her thoughts the more she felt that Tian Mu was a suspicious person, “How do you think it was such a coincidence that it just so happened that Xie Miao and Tian Mu had arranged to meet, only for Lu Shuisheng to also show up at the same restaurant and clash with Tian Mu in front of Xie Miao?”

To Xie Miao, Tian Mu’s pre-existing emotional card had been very effective, while what made him finally drop his guard against Tian Mu was the later clash between Tian Mu and Lu Shuisheng – the two appeared to be completely unknown to each other.

Yet this lack of acquaintance is clearly something that can be crafted.

Ji Lin naturally also thought of this layer, “That is to say, the accidental chance encounter with Lu Shuisheng, and then the argument like two normal strangers, was actually all a deliberate act by Tian Mu and Lu Shuisheng to show Xie Miao.”

“Yes, he deliberately did it to draw out Xie Miao, so he deliberately made his argument with Lu Shuisheng loud. His voice was very loud outside, but just then inside the box, even when questioning why Xie Miao had wronged himself, his voice was not that loud in decibels. In terms of mood swings and level of anger, it was obviously more unacceptable to be slandered by someone you know, right? But in reality, he was the one who was more emotional and louder when he argued with Lu Shuisheng, and he was shouting so loudly just to make sure that he lured Xie Miao out of the box.”

Thinking about it this way, Bai Duanduan felt that everything made sense, “Besides, Tian Mu was so aggressive at the beginning that he wanted to fight with Lu Shuisheng, but when he saw Xie Miao appear, he suddenly seemed dumbfounded. I thought at first that it was because he saw that he was surrounded by his acquaintances and felt that it was too humiliating to quarrel so he let it go. But if we analyze and understand from another angle, he saw Xie Miao and realized that his purpose was achieved. Xie Miao saw the conflict and the scene was perfectly completed, so there was no need to continue pulling Lu Shuisheng to quarrel. “

At first Bai Duanduan thought that she was born to be at odds with the dogs in the restaurant, but now she didn’t expect to find traces of Tian Mu’s collusion with Lu Shuisheng by relying on a dog.

In fact, if Tian Mu hadn’t deliberately put on such a show for Xie Miao with Lu Shuisheng at the end, he wouldn’t have revealed himself.

However, there can be such a coincidence in life sometimes. Tian Mu’s killer move to ensure that Xie Miao would never suspect him again did fool Xie Miao, but on the contrary, it allowed Bai Duanduan to detect the clues.

In all things, it’s too much of a good thing.

The author has something to say:     

Bai Duanduan frowned, realizing that things are not simple.

She found that cats and dogs are really important props in the story….. 

[Small Theater]

A few men gathered and chatted together

Xie Miao: I couldn’t protect my first love well. At that time I was not able to do it myself, so the memories are full of regret ……

Rong Sheng: Speaking of my first love, she was a charming girl, only 5’5″ tall, petite and delicate ……

Ji Lin: Your first love wasn’t your 5’7″ high school classmate?

Rong Sheng: Ahem, every relationship I’ve had has been my first love, because I’ve loved every girlfriend as my first love …… so it’s normal to misremember

Ji Lin: …

Rong Sheng: Ji Lin, what about your first love? ?

Ji Lin: Oh, something happened suddenly, you guys talk first, I’ll go..
