Chapter 35 3. Lilies

Recently, Xi Tao launched a courtship offensive to Li Xinru, asking the florist to send Li Xinru a bouquet of roses every day. At first Li Xinru didn't take Xi Tao's roses seriously, but after sending them for half a month, Li Xinru felt a little hairy. Because if you don't stop it, I really don't know when the bouquets of roses will be delivered.Li Xinru originally didn't want to hurt Xi Tao, but short-term pain is worse than long-term pain, so she decided to have a good talk with Xi Tao. Because it was Saturday, after lunch, Li Xinru called Xi Tao and asked him to go swimming with him at the European Style Club. After Xi Tao received the call, he was overjoyed.

The Beijing Office of Dongzhou City is the major shareholder of the European Style Club. It is managed by a Hong Kong hotel management company and implements a membership system. Zhu Mingli likes to go here for fitness. I also applied for a membership card and became a gold card member here. When Xi Tao walked into the swimming pool wearing swimming trunks, Li Xinru was wearing a colorful suspender bikini swimsuit and wearing sunglasses, lying on a white recliner and drinking a drink leisurely.Looking at Li Xinru's exquisite figure and slender legs, Xi Tao almost bled from his nose. Xi Tao suppressed his heartbeat, walked over pretending to be calm, sat on the white recliner next to Li Xinru, handed over a red rose prepared in advance, and praised in a gentlemanly manner: "Xinru, you are wearing this swimsuit It's so pretty, like a rose."

Li Xinru gracefully took the roses handed over by Xi Tao, smiled and said, "Xi Tao, but I don't like roses, I prefer lilies." "Xinru, can you tell me why you like lilies?" Xi Tao asked with a little embarrassment. "The "Bible" says that lilies are transformed from Eve's tears and are the most pure symbol. There is an ancient legend about lilies in Germany. I like it very much. A girl named Alice lives with her mother. In the Harz Mountains. One day, Grand Duke Lao Mobao passed by here in a carriage and saw Alice. He thought it was a fairy descending to earth, and immediately invited her back to the city. You can do whatever you want, but I didn't expect Alice to insist on refusing. The Grand Duke refused to give up, and pulled Alice to do something wrong. Alice screamed, struggled desperately, and shouted for help. At this critical moment, there was a sudden blow. Kamikaze, Alice disappeared immediately. But from where she stood, a lily rose up, emitting bursts of fragrance. Isn’t this legend beautiful?” Li Xinru finished speaking with relish, tilting her head and flashing a pair of almond eyes Ask innocently.

"Xinru, don't you think I'm the Grand Duke of Laomobao? I'm not that bad!" Xi Tao said with a wry smile. "You can really think of it. In fact, there are many legends about the lily. In ancient Greek mythology, there is another legend about the origin of the lily: the god Zeus had a son named Hercules Hercules, who once created the hero. Albert. Hercules heard that if he ate the milk of the goddess Juno, he could live forever, but it is not easy to eat Juno's milk! After Zeus thought about it, he called the gods to drink. The banquet was specially for Zhu Nuo. Nuo arranged a large amount of Necta, which is a wine for gods to drink. Juno was really drunk. Zeus quickly asked his son Hercules to throw himself on Juno to suck the milk. The milk had no time to swallow, and flowed to the ground, and where there was milk, white and fragrant lilies immediately grew. In many medieval portraits of the Virgin Mary, lilies are painted without stamens and pistils, which means that they are sexless. Evil thoughts." Li Xinru casually said while sniffing the rose in her hand.

"Xinru, to be honest, I don't like these two legends." Xi Tao said a little frustrated because the roses he gave were not liked by his sweetheart. "Why?" Li Xinru said angrily. "The first legend is that the powerful grand duke hurt the beautiful and pure Alice. The second legend is that Zeus and his son Hercules conspired to hurt the goddess Juno. Both of them have violent tendencies. Xinru, if these two The legend is true, so isn’t lily a flower that was destroyed by men? So I don’t like it, don’t get me wrong, I mean I don’t like those two legends, it’s not that I don’t like lilies, if I knew you liked lilies, I would like to give you a thousand flowers." Xi Tao said sincerely.

"Why a thousand flowers?" Li Xinru asked curiously while sipping on the drink with her cherry lips. "Because a thousand lilies represent loyal love, which will never change until death!" Xi Tao said vowedly. Li Xinru made no objection, she knew what Xi Tao would say next, she cleverly changed the topic, stood up gracefully and asked, "Xi Tao, do you like diving?" Xi Tao glanced at the 10-meter platform Li Xinru was pointing at, and was a little dizzy. He had never jumped into water, let alone a 10-meter platform, but Xi Tao thought that Li Xinru was testing his guts. Maybe it was a good chance to win Xin Ru's heart, so he pretended not to care and said: "I can only dance popsicles!"

"Do you dare to compete with me?" General Li Xinru asked eagerly. Xi Tao didn't believe that Li Xinru dared to go up the ten-meter platform, thinking that if he went up, he would have to scare you back. "Xin Ru, are you okay?" Xi Tao asked cautiously, he was a little worried about the safety of his sweetheart. "Okay, you'll know when you go up!" Li Xinru really wants to test how much Xi Tao loves herself. She likes Xi Tao's freedom and handsomeness, and is also moved by Xi Tao's love for her. Because of this, she doesn't want Xi Tao to get too deep into herself. , because Li Xinru really can't divide his heart into two halves, one half for Jin Weimin and the other half for Xi Tao.

After Li Xinru finished speaking, he rushed to the ten-meter platform like a swallow. Xi Tao was afraid that Li Xinru would show off, so he hurried up to be a flower protector. After the two of them got on the ten-meter platform, Xi Tao felt that the whole swimming pool was shaking. At this time, Li Xinru's two white and tender feet had already reached the edge of the ten-meter diving platform, and she turned her back to the water, and said with a smile, "Xi Tao, I just like the feeling of flying." As soon as the words fell, Li Xinru made a backflip and turned around like a professional diver and jumped into the water, pressing the spray. Xi Tao was shocked at the time. He never thought that Li Xinru's diving was at a professional level. Applauding, Xi Tao secretly complained, thinking, this is a big embarrassment.Going on like this will definitely make Li Xinru look down on him, and jumping down is tantamount to making a fool of himself. At this time, the people below have already started to applaud him.Xi Tao thought to himself, making a fool of himself is better than being treated as a bear by others, maybe Xinru decided to marry him after this jump!

Xi Tao gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and jumped down. It was a thrilling jump. Everyone present was stunned. Only Xi Tao fell into the water naked, hitting huge waves, and he didn't practice for a long time. Tao's shadow. Li Xinru, who was just about to go ashore, was terrified. She plunged into the water to save Xi Tao, only to see Xi Tao submerged in the water with his feet on the ground, as if he had died of breath. Swimming to the shore, several other swimming men and women also thought that something happened to Xi Tao, so they quickly helped to drag Xi Tao ashore. Xi Tao was lying on the ground on his back. Li Xinru was so anxious that tears came out. She kept calling Xi Tao's name, but Xi Tao was like a dead person. A girl next to him said anxiously: "Hurry up and give artificial respiration!"

Li Xinru woke up all of a sudden, and she kissed it without hesitation. This kiss was not a big deal. A pair of big hands hugged her tightly and kissed her affectionately. Applause, but Li Xinru struggled desperately to get away, and said loudly: "Xi Tao, you are too much!" After speaking, he got up angrily and returned to the reclining chair where he had just been lying, and sat down. Xi Tao quickly got up and followed with a smile. "Don't be angry, Xinru, I love you, you should know!" "But I don't love you, you should know it too!" Li Xinru said with petty temper.

"Impossible, if you don't love me, why are you trying to save me!" Xi Tao said seriously, "Xinru, I fell in love with you deeply from the first time I saw you, accept my love, For you, let alone the ten-meter platform, even a fire pit, I dare to jump!" In fact, Li Xinru was indeed moved by Xi Tao, but moved is not moved. The person in front of me is willing to jump into the fire pit for himself, but he is willing to jump into the fire pit for another. Love is inconceivable. How to persuade Xi Tao without hurting him is really amazing Li Xinru made a mistake! "Xi Tao, to tell you the truth, I already have someone in my heart!" Li Xinru said bluntly. "Who?" "Jin Weimin!" Xi Tao laughed. "Xinru, she not only has a wife, but also a child, how is this possible!" Li Xinru looked at Xi Tao's self-righteous appearance, and thought to herself, Xi Tao, Xi Tao, you look very smart, but you are actually an idiot! "Xi Tao, I'm really not suitable for you. After I graduated from university, I went to Donggang Company as a secretary. At that time, Jin Weimin went to Hong Kong to establish a silver diamond financial company. He needed an assistant. Brother Nengtong asked the boss of Donggang Company to choose an assistant for Weimin. The right person finally chose me. Hong Kong law stipulates that a registered financial company must have more than two shareholders, at least one of whom is a Hong Kong resident. I am lucky to be one of the shareholders. I have never seen someone like Weimin Such a man who is calm, serious, full of passion, and has lofty aspirations, fell in love with him deeply. I don't care about his status, as long as he loves me and I love him, that's enough. Xi Tao, in fact, you are also worthy of love Man, but you are late, I not only gave my heart to Jin Weimin, but also my people. I came to you today because I was afraid that you would misunderstand me too much. Xi Tao, forget me, I am a Falling in love with a married woman is not worth your pursuit!" Li Xinru's frank and honest words were like a bolt from the blue, and Xi Tao was dumbfounded when he heard it. He never thought that Li Xinru had already agreed to it, and what made him unable to accept it was that the beauty in front of him was as holy as a lotus flower in his heart. A woman would rather be the mistress of a married man than love a pure man like himself, and he felt a great sense of shame in his heart. Xi Tao didn't speak for a long time. He glanced at the roses he gave to Li Xinru, picked them up involuntarily, then broke off petal by petal and threw them on the ground, saying to himself, "So that's how it is! That's how it is!" Xi Tao didn't look at Li Xinru again, and walked towards the men's locker room alone. Li Xinru worriedly shouted: "Xi Tao! Xi Tao!" Xi Tao didn't look back, he didn't dare to look back, because he experienced heartbreak for the first time in his life!
