At this time, Zhang Yuan, who was held by Li Li, was even more nervous than when he walked alone, and the sweat on his forehead kept rolling down.

He stretched out his right hand to wipe his sweat, but found that his right hand was being held by Li Li.

After wiping the sweat with his left hand awkwardly, Zhang Yuan said with a depressed face: "I have never left my parents since I was a child, the university is in the city, and the job after graduation is also arranged by them, and I have always walked the path arranged by them." ”

Zhang Yuan is like a bird imprisoned in a golden cage, always wanting to fly out to see what the outside world is like.

Li Li was a little envious of Zhang Yuan, he had someone to help him with everything, and someone had arranged everything, but he relied on himself for everything.

Two people with their own hearts walked hand in hand on this sheep intestine path, enjoying this moment of tranquility.

Suddenly, Li Li's mobile phone rang, she hurriedly let go of Zhang Yuan's arm, and after taking out the phone, it was a video call from Zhao Qifeng.

This person really did what he said, and he came to check the post on the first day.

Li Li didn't think much about it, and directly connected to the video.

Who knew that the mobile phone just happened to shoot Zhang Yuan, and the moment the video was connected, Zhao Qifeng saw Li Li and a man walking on a crowded path.

"Qi Feng, what's the matter?"

Because of Zhang Yuan next to him, Li Li did not get angry, and his tone was quite gentle.

Zhao Qifeng was not so calm, with a straight face as if someone owed him tens of millions.

"Where are you?"

Zhao Qifeng's tone was bad when he opened his mouth, which made Li Li very angry.

Forget it, there are outsiders here, I bear with it.

Li Li squeezed out a smile and said, "I'm doing something outside." ”

Zhao Qifeng was not satisfied with Li Li's answer at all, his eyes in the video were fierce, as if he was going to eat people.

"Who are you going to do with you?"

Zhang Yuan next to him couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb anymore, so he said hello awkwardly: "Hello Brother Feng, I am Manager Li's subordinate Zhang Yuan." ”

After Zhang Yuan finished speaking, he quickly moved two steps to the side, and only Li Li was left alone in the video screen.

Li Li didn't know what explosives this Zhao Qifeng had eaten today, if Zhang Yuan wasn't still there, she would have turned her face a long time ago.

Now that the contract has been signed, the only thing to do is to abide by the treaty.

Li Li held back the anger in his heart, gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Yuan and I still have business to do, so we will hang up first." ”

"Doodoo ......"

Li Li hung up the video directly, turned his head and instructed Zhang Yuan: "Let's go, it's not too early." ”

By this time, the sky had darkened, the dilapidated street lamps in the alley were flickering, and the sound of pots and pans colliding was heard all around.

This is the real market life, three meals a day, the same throughout the year, the cycle changes.

The two of them quickened their pace, and then walked to the door of Qin Lianhua's house when it was almost dark.

Zhang Yuan was the first to knock on the door, and the old wooden door creaked.

The door came, and the person who came was none other than their colleague Qin Lianhua.

Zhang Yuan nervously grabbed Qin Lianhua's hand and said with a worried expression, "Lianhua, are you okay?"

Qin Lianhua was stunned by Li Li and Zhang Yuan, who suddenly visited, and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

Li Li pulled away the hands of the two and said in a sinister manner: "Lotus, why don't you say goodbye? Even if you leave, you have to say goodbye to everyone, don't you?"

Qin Lianhua was pulled back to reality by Li Li's questioning, she lowered her head and said in disappointment: "I... I don't have the face to see everyone. ”

As soon as Qin Lianhua thought that she had betrayed the entire group of colleagues, she felt that she was a complete sinner.

She didn't dare to ask for forgiveness, and she didn't even have the courage to face her mistakes.

Li Li always has something to say when facing her friends, and never beats around the bush, although Lotus is now full of sadness, she still says righteously: "Lotus, it is a fact that you have done something wrong. It's good to be brave enough to admit your mistakes, and it doesn't matter if you forgive you or not. ”

Zhang Yuan didn't understand what Li Li and Qin Lianhua were talking about at all, he asked curiously, "Manager, what did Lianhua do wrong?"

Li Li glanced at Zhang Yuan, and then comforted: "Lotus, it doesn't matter if you do something wrong, everyone will do it wrong sometimes." As long as you can face it bravely and change your ways. ”

Lotus, who had always been soft, nodded firmly after listening to Li Li's words.

"Well, manager, thank you. Tomorrow I will go and apologize to my colleagues, even if they beat me and scold me, it is the punishment I deserve, and I will not run away from it anymore. ”

When Zhang Yuan heard that the beating and scolding were so serious, his emotions immediately became excited.

"Manager, how can you let Lotus be beaten and scolded? She's a girl, where can she bear such a big grievance!"

Zhang Yuan was not afraid of Li Li's majesty at this time, and actually yelled at her.

Lotus didn't expect Zhang Yuan to go against the manager for his own sake, and his cold heart seemed to usher in a spring breeze.

Li Li didn't expect Zhang Yuan, an honest man who was usually obedient to him, to be so manly at a critical moment.

"Okay, don't worry about it! I have my own measure, you can rest assured, I won't let your Lotus sister be eaten!"

After Li Li finished speaking, he patted Zhang Yuan's shoulder twice.

Zhang Yuan, who was teased, returned to his shy and honest appearance, scratched his head and whispered: "Manager, what are you talking about......

Li Li saw Zhang Yuan's twisted and shy appearance, and wanted to tease him even more.

"Ouch, even if I'm blind, I can see that you like people!"

After Zhang Yuan was poked at the center, he immediately waved his hand and quibbled: "No, no, manager, you really misunderstood!"

Li Li leaned in front of Zhang Yuan and whispered, "Don't worry, I think you two have a play~"

Zhang Yuan's face turned even redder now, and his already fair-skinned skin was like a bright peach at this time.

Qin Lianhua, who was still worried, was amused by Li Li and Zhang Yuan, who sang and harmonized.

"Hehe, manager, come in and sit, after chatting for so long, I forgot to invite you into the house. ”

Li Li smiled and waved his hand: "No, no, it's not early, I have to go home too!"

Zhang Yuan really wanted to stay with Lotus for a while, but the manager said that he was leaving, and he could only say against his will: "Yes, it's not too early, we'll ......."

Before Zhang Yuan's words were finished, Qin Lianhua cried with tears in her eyes: "Do you dislike the place where I live...... Also, my house is small and torn, so don't stain your clothes. ”

Li Li and Zhang Yuan didn't dislike Qin Lianhua's dirty place, but they simply felt embarrassed to visit someone's house suddenly.

But seeing Lotus so sad, the two no longer shirked.

Li Li directly crossed Qin Lianhua and walked into the house.

"Lotus, your house sounds warm! It's really good, are you all decorating it yourself?"

When Li Li entered the house, he was overwhelmed by a patch of pink.

Pink wallpaper, pink curtains, pink bed, even the small table for eating is pink.

It's just that the room is small, only a bed and a small table can be placed, the kitchen and toilet are next to each other, there is no extra space.

Zhang Yuan couldn't wait to go in and have a look, and he said softly to Lotus: "Lotus, let's go in?"

Qin Lianhua nodded, wiped away her tears, and turned around and walked towards the house.

Zhang Yuan followed closely and walked in happily.

I'm about to see the boudoir of the lotus, so excited!

After Zhang Yuan entered the house, he looked east and west, and carefully looked at the girls' rooms.

While looking at it, he sighed: "Lotus, your wallpaper is so beautiful!"

Zhang Yuan pointed to Peppa Pig on the wall, smiling all over his face.

Qin Lianhua covered her mouth and chuckled: "I bought it cheaply on the Internet, before this room was not decorated, it was in tatters, and even the cement inside the white wall could be seen." ”

Li Li felt that Qin Lianhua was really strong, living in such a noisy and messy place, and still being optimistic about sticking to his own paradise.

The three of them chatted for a long time, and Qin Lianhua warmly invited Li Li and Zhang Yuan to stay for dinner.

"Manager, it's not early, you guys can have dinner here with me!"

Li Li looked at the time, it was already eight o'clock in the evening, she shook her head and said, "No need, I have to go home early." ”

Zhang Yuan really wanted to stay and have dinner with Lotus, but the manager said that he was leaving, so what reason did he have to stay.

Qin Lianhua knew that Li Li was just polite and shirked, but he couldn't repay him for being so good to him.

"Manager, don't shirk, just eat at my place, I'll do it right away, and I'll be fine soon!"

Li Li didn't shirk it, he just felt that it was too late and wanted to go home early to rest.

"No need Lotus, I'm really okay! next time, next time I'll definitely try your dishes!"

Qin Lianhua saw that Li Li seemed to be really in trouble, and it was not easy to insist on it.

"Alright, manager, I'll send you off. ”

Lianhua got up and was about to send Li Li and Zhang Yuan out, but Li Li hurriedly stopped her: "No need, it's so late, the lights in the alley are not on, and it is not safe for you to come back alone for a while." Zhang Yuan and I will go back by ourselves. ”

Although Zhang Yuan was reluctant to leave, when he heard that Lotus wanted to send him, he hurriedly refused: "That's it, Lotus, I really don't have to send it! I and the manager know the way out, you can rest assured!"

Qin Lianhua nodded reluctantly and instructed Li Li and Zhang Yuan to be careful on the road.

After the three of them walked to the door of Qin Lianhua's house, they said goodbye.

"Go back, Lotus, let's go!"

Li Li waved his hand happily, not noticing Zhang Yuan's expression next to him at all.

Zhang Yuan looked at Qin Lianhua with straight eyes, and said reluctantly, "Lianhua, I'm leaving." ”

Qin Lianhua smiled sweetly at Li Li and Zhang Yuan, and watched the two walk into the alley.

After coming out of Qin Lianhua's house, Zhang Yuan kept his head down and didn't speak.

The dogs around her barked one after another, making Li Li's back break out in a cold sweat, and she was afraid that a wild dog would come out of some dark corner.

Li Li changed his resolute personality in the past, and said in a trembling voice: "Zhang... Zhang Yuan, aren't you afraid?"

is recalling the beautiful Zhang Yuan who was in the same room with Lotus just now, how could he care about the darkness and noise around him.

"Afraid, afraid of what?"

Zhang Yuan didn't feel terrible around him at all, and even felt that there was a bright moon in the dark night that illuminated his heart.

Li Li walked to Zhang Yuan's side tremblingly, pulled up one of the corners of his clothes and whispered, "Dog, can't you hear the dog barking?"

Li Li has been afraid of dogs since she was a child, and when she used to live in the old building area, she always carried a brick with her, and if a dog approached her, she would take it out and scare them.

Don't say it, even dogs know this thing, and they will run away every time they see it.
