Chapter Seventy-Four: Farewell
The laughter in the large conference hall never stopped, Xie Ya walked into the conference hall, looked left and right in the faint light, and found Li Jingmu beside several female colleagues.
When the female employee sitting next to Li Jingmu saw Xie Ya, she turned her head at Li Jingmu beside her and signaled to him where Xie Ya was standing.
He turned his gaze and saw Xie Ya standing in the light, so he stood up and leaned over to take his coat and walked away from the crowd.
Xie Ya saw him walking towards her, turned and walked out of the large conference hall.
"Luo Ying is downstairs, right?"
As soon as she was about to open her mouth to Li Jingmu who walked out of the door, Li Jingmu looked at her first and asked softly.
"Hmm. She smiled and nodded.
"I'll go down to her. ”
As soon as Li Jingmu stepped in the direction of the elevator, Xie Ya grabbed the crook of his arm with his blazer hanging.
"Hey, don't go down. She's in a bad mood right now, that's why she asked me to come up and talk to you. She'll definitely be going to see you off tomorrow morning. ”
He stopped and lowered his eyes and smiled, Xie Ya raised his eyes to look at him, and hurriedly let go of his hand.
"Don't let her get up for the flight early tomorrow morning. You go sit down for a while, and I'll be back later." ”
"Good. She turned and walked into the chamber.
The water in the distance was sparkling, Li Jingmu went downstairs, stood at the door of the company and looked at the slender back in a small skirt by the guardrail of the artificial lake on the opposite side of the road, stepped down a few steps in front of the door, and crossed the road to her side.
Luo Ying saw the slender black shadow suddenly appearing beside her, let go of the hand holding the guardrail and turned around.
"Why did you get down?"
As if she had already guessed that he would come downstairs, there was no suspicion in her inquiring tone.
"Is the night view over there pretty?" Li Jingmu skipped her question and looked at the long neon-lit street across the artificial lake.
"Hmm. She turned her head to look at the street she had been looking at and nodded to him.
"Then come with me for a walk. ”
"Hmm. ”
After nodding in a daze, she walked back to the side of the road, went first along the sidewalk, and walked around the artificial lake, without looking back at Li Jingmu behind her.
Xie Ya entered the door and greeted her friends, then left the conference hall and went downstairs, and after going out and seeing Li Jingmu and Luo Ying walking along the side of the road not far away, she sent a message to Li Jingmu, and she got into the car and drove the car in the opposite direction of their journey.
Luo Ying accompanied Li Jingmu to the end of the long street, turned around and took two steps to him and smiled lightly.
"Send me home first. ”
He didn't let her go back for so long, it must have been Sister Xie Ya who had already left first.
Li Jingmu stared at the girl in front of her and nodded.
"Don't look at me like that. She timidly raised a smile and walked away from him.
Li Jingmu didn't speak again, silently followed behind her, returned to the door of the company and took the car to send her home.
Luo Ying got home, glanced at Xie Ya on the sofa, then went upstairs and returned to the room, and after resetting the reminder time of the bedside alarm clock, she lay down to rest.
The next morning, at dawn, she got up. After washing, he immediately went downstairs to the door of Xie Ya's room and knocked on the door.
Xie Ya, who had already changed her clothes, opened the door and saw her, and her smile became ambiguous.
"Are you alright?" Luo Ying pursed her lips, ignoring her smile.
"Hmm. She reached out and closed the door, walked briskly to the garage and drove the car out.
The car slowly drove out of the yard, through the faint morning, and stopped under the apartment building where Li Jingmu was.
Xie Ya went upstairs alone to pick up Li Jingmu, Li Jingmu went downstairs and opened the back seat door to see Luo Ying in the car, and was immediately stunned.
"I thought you weren't coming. He sat down beside her and closed the door quietly.
"Listening to your tone, it's not all the same whether I come or not. She tilted her head to look at his darkly handsome side face and laughed and teased. She didn't want to come, but she forgot to explain that she was silent last night, so she had to make up for it today.
Moreover, she was still a little reluctant to him in her heart.
He has been in the company for more than five years and nearly six years, that is, they have known each other for five or six years, no matter how you say it, they are all acquaintances.
Li Jingmu listened to her grievances and raised her face.
"Of course it's different. ”
Luo Ying looked at the corners of her mouth that suddenly raised, and turned her gaze suddenly. Thinking that she would not be able to see his good-looking face for a long time in the future, she suddenly felt a little pity.
The car changed lanes again and again to the parking lot of the airport, Xie Yajing sat in the driver's seat and looked at the two people who had gotten out of the back seat and gradually walked away.
After Luo Ying walked away, she grabbed Li Jingmu.
"I'll send you here, I'll say another word to you, I'll go first later, I don't want to see your back. ”
"Hmm. He chuckled and nodded.
"You don't seem to be very interested in local beauties, and you're not too young, so take the opportunity to bring a foreign girl back this time. She turned her head to look at the crowd in the distance and spoke.
"Hmm. Li Jingmu hugged the reluctant girl in front of her into her arms, closed her eyes and put her chin on her top hair and nodded in a deep voice.
"Did you sneak up like that? She let go of his arms, stepped back and grabbed his elbows in disgust.
"Which of us is with whom, okay, let's go back. He learned from Xie Ya's soft tone and made her laugh.
"Hmm. ”
Luo Ying grinned and waved her hand at him, without looking back, and walked quickly to the door.
Li Jingmu looked at her back until she disappeared from his sight before she took a step.
The sky was already bright, Luo Ying walked outside the airport, the vision in front of her became wider, and her heart suddenly emptied, and hot tears began to roll in her eyes, burning her so uncomfortable.
"Let's go home and have breakfast. ”
Luo Ying returned to the car, Xie Ya looked at her with tears and low eyes, and drove the car away.
She usually looks like she doesn't care about Jing Mu, and she pretends to be eighty percent.
"Sister Xie Ya, when you get to the gate of the welfare home, you can park, I'm not hungry yet. The car returned to the main road near the park, and Luo Ying opened her mouth.
As soon as she arrived at the welfare home near the bridge, Xie Ya stopped the car for her.
"I'll pick you up later. ”
"No, it's not far, I'll just walk back by myself. She stood in front of the window and shook her head.
"I'll be here soon. She smiled and waved her hand to let her in, driving the car away.
Luo Ying smiled and walked into the welfare home, and the old dean who was sweeping in the morning put down the broom and greeted her.
"Luo Ying, it's really early. You asked me to send that baby boy over to volunteer, she's on a business trip and isn't at home. ”
"Hmm. Take me to see the kid, I'm going back to my hometown this afternoon. ”
"Yo, yes, in previous years, you would accompany your mother back to your hometown as soon as you finished the exam, but this year it's too late. ”
She smiled and said nothing, and the old dean didn't see anything strange about her, and led her to the nursery in one breath.
She leaned over to the crib, and the baby boy slowly opened his eyes and smiled at her. She had forgotten how special he might be, and leaned down to slowly lift him out of the crib and pick him up like any other child.
"Look how sweet he laughs, he's only cried once since he came here. The old dean smiled approvingly.
Luo Ying carefully examined the baby boy for a long time, and found that he was really not much different from other babies, so she put him back in the crib.
"Before they got up, I left first, and when they knew that I hadn't returned to my hometown, they stopped me and didn't let me go. She looked at the small playground in front of the door, where there were no children playing, and said goodbye to the old dean.
"Good. ”
"You're busy. She turned back and motioned to the old dean behind her to let her stay.
She usually stays for a long time when she comes to the welfare home, but now she only stays for a short time, Sister Xie Ya will not wait for her at the door, and she has no intention of calling her.
Luo Ying walked away from the path in front of the welfare home, stepped on the bridge, and walked back in the direction of home. The shadows on the bridge would appear in her sight day and night, but at night they were more and clearer. She's gradually developing the ability to ignore them.
She walked back to the door, and Xie Ya was ready to go out.
"Why did you come back on your own?"
"Don't be so nervous, I'm not going to get home in a good place. She looked at Xie Ya, who was frowning deeply, and smiled.
"Last time I met Lin Zhe on the road on a business trip, he asked me to pay more attention to your safety in the future. Xie Ya said in a deep voice.
"He just said casually, I used to be like this, and I will be the same in the future, and I will be fine. Luo Ying stepped forward with Xie Ya on her back, closed her eyes, suppressed her chaotic breath, and calmly spoke, and then walked to the table.
Lin Zhe didn't know that she would be fine if she hadn't noticed Sister Xie Ya. She is not the same now, maybe if she is not careful, she will be gone, and no one can stop her.
In the late afternoon, the sun was setting in the west, and Luo's mother, who had returned home from the company, came to Luo Ying's room after dinner was ready to wake up Luo Ying, who was still sleeping.
After the family had dinner, Luo Ying went upstairs and took her packed luggage downstairs.
In the evening, when the sun was about to set, the car drove out of the courtyard of Luo's house.
An Yanyao stood on the rooftop of the top floor, looking at the slowly departing car shadow in the distance.
"She was leaving, and she didn't come to talk to you. ”
The woman's triumphant voice from behind him made him frown.
"I'm just An Yanyao. He let go of his furrowed brow, turned around lightly, and walked slowly downstairs.
