NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 16 How much do you think you are worth?
Marriage is in a hurry, but divorce is not in a hurry. She has thought about it for a long time and is mentally prepared.
Lin Xi put on beautiful makeup in front of the mirror, with fair skin and picturesque features.
She was confident about her appearance, but Shen Yi disagreed and even hated her. Maybe this was the so-called beauty caught in his own eye.
After checking the time, there were still nearly two hours left. In order to prevent Shen Yize from forgetting the agreement, Lin Xi picked up her phone and sent him a WeChat message.
"Mr. Shen, please come on time."
Lin Xi flipped through the chat history with Shen Yize. She was always talking and asking, but he rarely replied to her, and obviously he would not reply to her this time.
Seeing Lin Xi's eyes starting to get sore, she pursed her lips and suppressed her emotions.
If he dislikes her so much, they will never interact with her again, and she won't annoy him anymore.
As his thoughts were racing around, Lin Xi's cell phone rang.
When the call was connected, Sister Wang's anxious cry came, "Xiaoxi, your mother is missing."
The sudden news left Lin Xi at a loss. Although her mother was not sober these years, she was always obedient and never ran around.
She stood there blankly. After a moment of panic, she picked up her bag and ran out. She took a taxi to Beishan Nursing Home.
Along the way, I was tense and kept calling Sister Wang, asking her to find the security guard to adjust the monitoring.
When she arrived, Sister Wang stood at the gate with tears in her eyes.
"Xiaoxi, I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of her, so when I went to get her a glass of water, she disappeared." Sister Wang cried, blaming herself.
"How's the surveillance going?" Lin Xi's voice was trembling.
"Mrs. Madam seemed to have seen something in the surveillance. She walked out of the hospital door, turned left and disappeared."
Lin Xi didn't dare think about what would happen to her if she couldn't find her mother.
She no longer has a father and a family. If she no longer has a mother, she will become completely alone.
Lin Xi stood at the door of the security room, feeling the biting coldness of the north wind.
When he was in a panic, the hospital security called and said that the person had been found in a citizen's park one kilometer away.
After receiving the news, Lin Xi ran desperately to the Citizen Park. After two steps, he was grabbed by the security guard.
"Ms. Lin, we have a car to take you there."
When Lin Xi saw Liang Rumei in the Citizen Park, her emotions broke down instantly. She hugged her and cried, "Mom, you scared me to death."
Liang Rumei looked at Lin Xi blankly, without much expression as usual.
Back to the hospital.
The security captain apologized with a look of shame on his face, "I'm sorry, Miss Lin, we failed in our duty. There was no one at the door for two minutes during the shift change in the morning."
Liang Rumei was wearing a special hospital gown and could not leave the door under normal circumstances, so it was indeed their duty to lose the patient.
Lin Xi didn't dare to think about what she would do if something unexpected happened on the road. It scares me to think about it now.
"I hope you can give me an explanation for this matter. I don't want a similar situation to happen again."
The security captain vowed: "Don't worry, this will never happen again."
After the two parties negotiated, Lin Xi suddenly remembered the divorce and looked at the time and it was already half past nine.
There is still half an hour before the appointed time, so it may be difficult to arrive on time now.
"Sister Wang, keep an eye on my mother. I have something urgent to do. I'll come over after I finish it."
Lin Xi held her mother's hand and said softly: "Mom, be good and stop running around. I will come back to see you soon."
After saying goodbye to my mother, I hurriedly took a taxi to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
After getting in the car, she called Shen Yize, hoping that he would wait for her for a few minutes.
However, the person did not answer the phone until the phone hung up automatically.
Lin Xi immediately sent him a WeChat message.
"Shen Yize, I'm sorry, something unexpected happened. I may be a few minutes late, ten minutes at most. Please wait for me."
After sending the message, Lin Xi urged the driver: "Master, I'm in a hurry, could you please hurry up?"
The driver smiled and said, "You young people take it very seriously. Have you calculated the time to get the certificate?"
Lin Xi was stunned for a moment and smiled politely. If she said she was rushing to get divorced, what would the driver think?
At 10:01, Lin Xi was blocked not far from the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Looking at the navigation, it would take eight minutes to walk. Lin Xi thought that if she ran there, it would only take five minutes.
Thinking of this, I got out of the car and ran all the way to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
However, he collided head-on with an electric car at the corner. Fortunately, the car owner reacted in time and turned.
Although there was no head-on collision, she was still scratched. Because she was anxious to dodge, her center of gravity was unstable, and she fell directly and hit the tooth.
"Miss, you can't blame me! You rushed up on your own and scared me half to death."
A middle-aged man's voice was sharp and reproachful, and then he rode away quickly, fearing that he would be touched.
Feeling pain, Lin Xi lay on the ground and slowly stood up.
The cell phone rang suddenly, and Lin Xi's heart tightened when she saw someone's name. This person might not be able to wait any longer.
Lin Xi hurriedly answered the phone, "Shen Yize, please wait for me for two minutes, I will soon..."
Before she could finish speaking, Shen Yize's voice came over coldly, "It's you who is late. I've been waiting for you for five more minutes. I said you were playing hard to get and you still don't admit it. What do you say now?"
Knowing that he hadn't left yet, Lin Xi didn't have time to look at her injuries. She picked up her bag and ran to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
The only purpose is to intercept him and not let him go.
However, when she was only a few steps away from the Civil Affairs Bureau, Shen Yize's domineering Bentley had already spewed black smoke and sped away.
Lin Xi chased after him and shouted, "Shen Yize, wait a minute."
Qin Chuan looked at the limping woman in the rearview mirror, desperately chasing the car, feeling sad in his heart.
He bravely said, "Mr. Shen, my wife seems to be injured."
I only heard the person behind me say calmly: "Drive well, otherwise you will be the next one to be injured."
Qin Chuan choked. With this man's mouth, no wonder his wife had such a good temper and wanted to divorce him.
Shen Yi calmly glanced at the woman chasing the car in the rearview mirror.
Her face could no longer be seen clearly, only a small figure. Shen Yi narrowed his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Lin Xi chased the car for a long time, and then stopped reluctantly when he saw that the car had gone far away.
He took out his cell phone and called Shen Yize. Unexpectedly, he answered the call quickly this time.
"Shen Yize, can you turn me back? I'll just waste a few minutes of your time and change my ID."
"I have a meeting later. A project worth tens of billions. How much do you think you are worth?"
The man's cold voice made Lin Xi pause. Yes, how dare she compare with a project worth tens of billions? In his heart, she is worthless!
All the words Lin Xi wanted to say were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say a single word.
