Chapter 184
When love is frustrated, young people can easily mess themselves up.
There were messy wine bottles and cigarette butts all over the floor, and the strong smell of tobacco and alcohol made people dizzy.
Luo fell into the door, first stunned for a moment, the heavy smell of wine came to her nose, she quickly ran to the balcony and opened the window, the fresh air blew in, she glanced back, and turned around in each room, and finally found Ali in the bathroom.
At this moment, Ali was completely in a coma, the toilet and the floor were covered with vomited filth that had dried up, and he sat next to him, his head resting on the edge of the toilet, and he was still clutching a half-empty wine bottle in his hand.
Luo Luo approached him, looked at him a few times, and then stretched out his index finger to poke the man's shoulder, "Hey, are you awake?"
Nothing happened.
Luo Luo quickly stood up and walked out, breathed a few more breaths of the fresh air outside before turning back again, pulling the man's arm and trying to drag him out of the mess, but unfortunately her strength was too small, and she had to give up in the end.
"Why do you drink so much wine?" she muttered, and she could only tie up her hair in resignation, then endured the pungent smell to clean up a filthy bathroom, then turned on the shower, turned it to the right temperature, and poured it on the man's body.
Ali finally reacted, and his body squirmed twice before slowly opening his beautiful ice-blue eyes.
Luo Luo turned off the shower and squatted in front of him, Ali was stunned, as if he was surprised by her appearance.
"What's the matter? Drinking stupidly, don't you know me when you see me?" Luo Luo covered his nose and teased him.
"No ......"
Luo Luo hurriedly interrupted him, "Stop, let's take a shower first, you stink!" Her voice was a little squeamish, although it was full of disgust, but it still felt pleasant to listen to Ali's ears.
Until Luo Luo walked out and closed the bathroom door, Ah Li was still stunned, and then an indescribable sadness and melancholy surged into his heart.
Seeing her so brisk, she must have been very happy with that man these days.
He slowly got up and took a shower, and the water temperature was turned down to the lowest level, which might make him more awake.
When he came out again, the living room was already new, and there was a clanging sound in the kitchen, and Alice walked over slowly, and then leaned against the door, his ice-blue eyes staring at the petite but light figure in front of him without blinking.
Luo Luo noticed that there was someone behind him, and subconsciously turned around, and saw Alec naked with his upper body, only a white bath towel around his waist, and his body was still wet with droplets, which made him feel like a beautiful man taking a bath.
The muscles on his body are very hard and perfect, but there are all kinds of large and small scars everywhere, and it looks like he should have been injured in the gang before.
Somehow, she suddenly thought of the appearance when Ning Shi came out of the bathroom that day, and he only wore a bath towel around his lower body, which obviously looked cold and impersonal, but in the damp water mist, it was a little more tempting.
Her face turned red all of a sudden, and she quickly turned her head and stumbled, "Why don't you wear clothes?"
Ali didn't understand very well, so he thought silently, "What do you mean?"
Luo Luo almost laughed angrily at him, and patted his head, "It's just that you can't appear in front of me without wearing anything!"
Alec shook his head helplessly, making a fuss.
He resigned himself to his fate and went back to the room to change his clothes, then came back and patted Luo Luo on the shoulder, "Look at me, is it okay this time?"
Luo Luo looked back at Ali up and down, as if he was looking at an alien.
Alept was a little uncomfortable and asked her, "What do you think I'm doing?"
Luo Luo narrowed his eyes and said solemnly: "You are so real, how did you survive in a place like the gang?"
Alex: "......"
In the past, Luo Luo would often be busy in the kitchen, preparing three meals a day for two people, but Ali never cared, just sitting on the sofa watching his mobile phone or TV, waiting to eat. But this time it was different, and Ali stood quietly in the corner of the kitchen waiting.
The kitchen was originally not big, and the tall and tall Alecians stood here, and it immediately seemed that the space was much cramped.
Luo Luo didn't feel a little strange, "What are you doing?"
Ali still looked very honest and asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Luo Luo was quite surprised, looked him up and down, and couldn't help laughing, "When did you become so diligent?"
Alec approached Luoluo.
"You go out and wait, the noodles will be ready soon. She turned around and put the noodles in the boiling water.
At this moment, Ali had already walked behind her, and the tall figure enveloped her whole person, as long as he opened his arms, he could easily take her into his arms.
He stared intently, as if he was about to make a hole in the back of her head, and his heart was struggling violently and hard.
Should this be done?
This was his last chance.
His Adam's apple rolled slightly, his mind was almost blank, and he had only one thought, to keep her!
The fingers at his side moved, and he slowly raised his arms......
"It's finally good!" Luo Luo was still unconscious, her fingers were burned, she hurriedly pinched her earlobe, and turned around to meet the man's ice blue eyes.
Both of them were stunned for a moment.
Ali hurriedly retracted his hand, a nervous look on his face.
"What's wrong with you?" Luo Luo carefully observed the expression on his face, always feeling that something was wrong with him, but he couldn't say what was wrong.
"It can't be sick, is it?" she said, reaching out to probe Ali's forehead, then touching her own forehead, "It seems to be really hot." She muttered to herself, and then pushed Ali out of the kitchen, "Get out of here, get out quickly, I'll serve you some noodles and eat quickly, I'll take your temperature." β
In the months they have been together, she has become accustomed to taking care of him. In her eyes, Ali is also a poor person, who grew up in a slum and has not received a good education or a good life. He steals, does bad things, or even goes to prison for committing crimes, or joins gangs, none of which makes her negate his own innocence.
He is very promised, honest and gentle, and has a bottom line in doing things, which is completely different from those real underworld characters.
Many times she even wondered if Ali could grow up in a high-ranking family like Ning Shi, would he also be a noble son?
She took out two bowls from the cupboard, one large and one small, and filled the large one first, and then placed it in front of Ali, and then filled a small bowl for herself.
It wasn't until Luo Luo also sat down at the table that Ali picked up the fork, he was not used to using chopsticks, so he had always used the fork to eat, he ate very deliciously, gulped and devoured, and finally Luo Luo couldn't stop saying to him: "Be careful of burning." β
It wasn't until he had eaten it all, and even drank all the soup in the bowl, that he put down his fork, and his ice-blue eyes slowly turned to Luoluo.
Luo Luo took a small bite of the noodles and chatted: "Look at your appearance, I haven't been here for the past two days, you must not have eaten well." β
Ah Li slowly retracted his gaze, pretending to be inadvertent, and asked, "Where have you been in the past two days?"
Luo Luo smiled, "I just wanted to tell you about this when I came back," she swallowed the noodles in her mouth, and then laughed even more proudly, "I took Ning Shi down!"
Ali felt that his breathing stagnated, and his chest immediately became irrepressibly sour, although he had expected it for a long time, but he still felt unacceptable when he really heard her say it to him in person.
He couldn't say how sad he was, but he didn't dare to show it at all.
"You're together, aren't you?"
Shyness flashed on Luo Luo's face, he thought about it carefully, and smiled softly, his eyebrows and eyes crooked, "Sort of, didn't I tell you before that he was engaged? β
Ali was silent, "So you don't plan to go back to country R with me, do you?"
Luo Luo paused, then shook his head, and there was a strange and strange atmosphere in the room.
Ali was a little anxious, "Do you believe in him like that, aren't you afraid that he will abandon you one day?"
"He won't. β
"He can abandon his fiancΓ©e for you, and he will abandon you because of others in the future!"
Luo Luo still shook his head firmly, "You don't understand Ali, he won't." He was really nice to me. β
Alex cursed in his native language in a low voice.
Luo Luo still looked at him puzzled, and asked cautiously, "Ah Li, what's wrong with you?"
"Can you not go?" the man roared angrily, unprecedentedly strange and strong.
Luo Luo was stunned for a moment.
When Ning Shi returned to the villa, it was close to night, the house was too quiet, the servant who was waiting brought the sobering tea, Ning Li stood aside respectfully, seeing Ning Shi's tired face, he said with concern: "Looking at Mr. looks very tired, why don't I wait for you to go back to the room to rest." β
Ning Shi waved his hand, "No, it's too late, it will disturb her." β
Ning Li's face immediately flashed with hesitation, and finally he couldn't help but remind: "Sir, Miss Luo hasn't come back yet. β
The man who was closing his eyes suddenly opened his eyes.
"Didn't come back, where did she go?"
β¦β¦
Luo Luo's mobile phone rang over and over again at the dining table, but still no one answered, Ning Shi was so anxious that she didn't even bring the driver, and rushed directly to the place where she used to live with Ali.
In fact, he had already investigated this place clearly, and even if he hadn't been there, he was still familiar with it.
He came to the door, knocked on the door a few times, no one responded, he was a little anxious, knocked a few more times, and was about to kick the door open, who knew that the door was suddenly opened from the inside.
"Who's the ...... in the middle of the night" Luo Luo was woken up, still very sleepy at the moment, and when he saw that the person who came was Ning, he was suddenly scared to sober up a lot.
"You ......" Before she could even utter a complete sentence, the man had already grabbed her with a solemn face and looked left and right.
"What, what's wrong?" she asked, sensing that something was wrong with his emotions.
"Are you okay?
"No!" Luo Luo broke free of him, and then gestured to a shush, "Be quiet, Alec is sleeping." β
Ning Shi saw that she still looked like a vigorous tiger, and she seemed to be really fine, and her heart was a lot more stable, but her face became more and more cold.
He paced into the house, and the first time he came here, he looked around at the furnishings, which were crude and cramped, and he couldn't help frowning.
"Who told you to come back here?" and sneaked back without even saying hello.
Luo Luo followed behind him, almost angry at his uncooperation, and repeated in a low voice: "It's all a little quiet, Alex is sleeping!"
Ning Shi's face became more and more unsightly, and he turned his head to stare at her, his eyes emitting two faint cold lights, which made people shudder.
"Are you distressed?"
Luo Luo's back was chilled by his staring, and he subconsciously took a small step on his hind legs, "No, no." β
Ning Shi took advantage of the situation and took a step closer, "Then why can't I wake him up?"
Luo Luo's hands behind his back were tightly stirred together, and he muttered quietly, "But he's sleeping." β
Ning Shi's gaze was slightly cold, and the corners of his lips were tightly pursed. The room was completely silent, but the strange smell of swimming in the air made it even more unsettling.
Luo Luo bit his lower lip, then threw himself into his arms and rubbed his coquettishness, "What's wrong with you?
Ning Shi lowered his eyes and looked at the lump in his arms, his face finally softened, but his voice was still cold and hard, "What do you say?"
Luo Luo was speechless, in fact, she knew what he was angry about. She nestled sullenly in his arms and explained: "You don't know, Aleca has a fever, he hasn't eaten well in the two days I've been away, I came back to tell him about our together, who knew it would be like this." β
The man stared at her fixedly, his eyes were deep, and there was an indelible emotion in them.
His voice seemed to be a little astringent, but it still maintained its usual cold taste: "Luoluo." He read her name faintly, "What is your relationship with him?"
Luo Luo was frightened by the sternness on his face, and couldn't help but be in awe.
"I, we're friends, he helped me a lot before I found you. β
"What about you and me?"
Luo Luo was stunned, and replied stumblingly: "We, naturally, are ......" She was still a little embarrassed to say the word lover, so she could only support herself.
Ning Shi was silent for a few seconds, "I understand." He gently pushed her away, "You rest early, I'll go back first." β
The man passed by her, and everything happened suddenly and unexpectedly. Luo Luo sensed that something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong, and at this moment, the man had walked out of the door quickly.
"Ningshi!" she whispered but eagerly by his name, but he didn't look back. Luo Luo didn't have time to think more, and hurriedly chased out. Before the man entered the elevator, he was already hugged from behind.
Ning Shi's back stiffened and remained motionless, "Let go." β
"No, you'll be gone as soon as I let go. Luo Luo played a scoundrel.
The man closed his eyes helplessly, as if he was still combing through the chaotic emotions in his head.
"If it weren't for Ali, I wouldn't have been able to come to Country C at all, and now he's sick and lonely, I just want to take care of him and get better, is this wrong? Why are you so angry, if you want to be with you, I can't have my own friends?"
"Luoluo, you still don't understand. Ning Shi's voice was helpless and desolate, and Luo Luo also felt a chill from his heels to his back.
It's just that she still can't figure out why Ning Shi is angry.
She was a little discouraged and said indignantly: "How can I understand if you don't make it clear? If you have the ability to say something and take a look, maybe I will understand!"
Ning Shi forcibly pulled away her hand, turned around, and stared at her with dead eyes, and when his eyes were staggered, Luo Luo seemed to see a different Ning Shi.
Ning Shi in front of him had additional emotions, not angry, not cold, not unfathomable, but a real person with pain, sadness and sadness.
The man took a step closer, "You always say you love me and how important I am in your heart," he nodded her chest, "Actually, in you, I don't matter at all, anyone can be in front of me, and I, or even yourself, can make way for them at any time." β
Luo Luo opened his mouth, but found that he was speechless.
"But in my heart, you have always been my only one, my most important thing, I can give up anything for you. He stared at her and said word by word, "That's why I'm angry." β
She said that Alec was lonely, but she didn't know that loving someone would never feel lonely, and missing someone would be.
During this long time, longing seeped into his bone marrow like poison, and he would taste the pain of his heart every day and every night.
That moment is the real loneliness, the hopelessly lonely.
He never said that he didn't want to kidnap her with these, he just wanted her to really love him and stay by his side happily.
"Didn't you always want to see the real me? This is the most real me. He glanced away slowly, "So let's wait until you think it through first, and then we'll meet." β
The man turned around again, and Luo Luo suddenly came back to his senses.
What else needs to be considered?
If she could really think about it, she wouldn't have traveled thousands of miles from country R to country C, and she wouldn't still stand firmly by his side after going through so many things.
She had long since left him, and her whole heart had been lost to him.
She grabbed him and almost begged, "Ning Shi, I seem to understand what you mean, let's go in and talk, okay?"
If he was gone, if he didn't want to see her again, then she would never see him again!
The two of them were in a stalemate, never thinking that the door next door suddenly opened, and the aunt shouted at the top of her voice: "What is the noise?
It was the first time Ning Shi had heard someone else talk to him in such a tone, and his face instantly became extremely ugly.
Luo Luo squatted on the ground with a sigh, "It hurts, Ning Shi." β
Ning Shi hurriedly squatted down and stepped forward to check, "What's wrong?"
"My stomach hurts! Maybe I've eaten something bad. Luo Luo pouted, his whole smiling face wrinkled together, "Quick, carry me back and lie down for a while, I can't move." β
Ning Shi immediately and decisively picked up Luo Luo's waist, went straight to the room, and then carefully put her on the bed, "How is it? Does it still hurt?" he said, gently touching her hair.
The girl's face was full of well-behaved appearance, her eyes were burning, and suddenly her lips hooked a triumphant smile, and she suddenly stretched out her hand to grab Ning Shi's clothes, and pulled him towards herself brutally.
Ning Shi was defenseless, the whole person pounced on her, and the next second, the soft lips were attached, kissing him gently, and then sly smiled at him, "Ning Shi, you have been tricked!"
The girl, who had always been petite and soft, didn't know where the strength came from at this moment, so she turned over and pressed him under her.
Ning Shi's forehead was bruised, and while trying his best to dodge, he grabbed her invading wrist, "Luoluo, don't make trouble." β
"You let go!" Luo Luo glared at him, looking like a fierce woman, Ning Shi reluctantly let go and made a gesture of surrender.
"Cooperate with me!" Luo Luo continued to order.
The man couldn't help but hook his lips and laughed, "It seems that your stomach really doesn't hurt anymore." β
Luo Luo looked triumphant, "With you, I won't be in pain." β
"Little liar. The man doted on her nose, but still stubbornly pushed her away, sat up and straightened the collar of her ripped clothes, "Okay, I forgive you." β
Luo Luo was overjoyed and approached like a puppy, "Really?"
Ning Shi ruthlessly pushed her fleshy little face away, but there was a smile in her eyes that couldn't be hidden, "Hmm." β
Luo Luo saw that he had been successfully pleased by her, so he also laughed ingeniously, raised three fingers, and swore to the sky, "Then I will pay attention in the future, everything will come first to you." β
Ning Shi glanced at her lightly, believing that she was a ghost.
He got up, and she panicked a little again, "Where are you going?"
He took out his phone and shook it in front of her, "Go out and make a call, aren't you worried about him?
Since you can't change her, and you can't give up her, then stay with her, do what she wants to do, don't care about gains and losses, and always stand by her side.
This was another compromise on his part.
It seems that as long as he encounters something related to her, he is compromising without a bottom line.
Ning Shi opened the door of the room and saw Ah Li standing in front of the door a little helplessly, but just in an instant, his helpless eyes became cold and full of hostility. This was the second time he and Ali had met, but it was far more full of gunsmoke than the last one.
He glanced Ali up and down, and said in a slightly sarcastic tone: "It seems that your situation is not as bad as Luo Luo said." β
Alex's ice-blue eyes looked directly at each other, and he didn't shy away, "Your situation is not much better. β
Ning Shi sneered and looked away disdainfully, "The conditions I mentioned last time are still counted, if you regret it, welcome to come to me at any time." β
A trace of coldness and cruelty flashed on Alex's face, he knew that this man was powerful, he didn't care about it before, but now it was a great irony and insult to him.
Unexpectedly, he had to rely on the wings of his rival to survive.
He took a step closer, the two of them were about the same height, their eyes staring at each other, full of untamable wildness, "Don't be complacent, one day, I will surpass you!"
Ning Shi looked back at him coldly, "We'll see." β
At this time, Luo Luo pushed the door out, and the two people who were still fighting each other just now quickly reined in their momentum, and the restless air became relaxed and stable in an instant.
"Huh, Alex, are you awake?"
Ali still looked honest, "I heard a voice outside, so I got up and took a look." β
Luo Luo's face turned red, could it be that the quarrel between her and Ning Shi just now was heard by Ali.
She scratched her cheeks a little uncomfortably, "That, are you still burning?"
Alec's ice-blue eyes were always glued to her, and Ning Shi on the side narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling very unhappy!
Only Luo Luo was left with no idea about this war between men, and stupidly walked over to probe Ali's forehead.
Ning Shi quickly grabbed her by the back collar and grabbed her back, but his eyes looked at Ah Li defiantly from beginning to end, "The temperature measurement must be a thermometer that is more accurate, if not, I can ask someone to send one now." β
Luo Luo suddenly realized, "If there are some, I'll get it." She said and hurried to Ali's room, which had been placed on Ali's bedside table when she had taken her temperature before.
As soon as Luo Luo's front foot left, the two men on the back foot confronted each other again, and Alimu sneered, "Mr. Ning, what you did just now is really childish and ridiculous. β
"Oh, is it?" Ning Shi also replied with no resignation, "Of course I have to take a good look at my own woman, how can I let others take advantage." β
"Luoluo, she's not your woman yet!"
Ning Shi sneered, "It seems that you really didn't hear anything on the phone that night." β
Ali was stunned, and there was not even a trace of blood on his already white cheeks.
Ning Shi took a step closer and said in a low voice that only the two of them could hear: "Still, you heard everything, but just pretended not to hear anything." β
One hit and hit.
Ali took a step back dejectedly, and his body couldn't help but shake a few times, he was already in a fever, and he felt even weaker at the moment, his mind was numb, and it felt like the cells in his body had lost the ability to breathe and were frozen together.
Behind her, Luo Luo had already taken out the thermometer, it was the old-fashioned conventional mercury thermometer, she shook it a few times, and then looked at Ali, and couldn't help but get nervous, "Ali, why is your face so bad? Isn't it uncomfortable again? Do you want me to help you go back to bed and lie down for a while?"
She stretched out her hand as she spoke, but was once again blocked by Ning Shige. He naturally hugged Ali, and with his other hand snatched the thermometer from Luo Luo's hand.
"I'll do it, you go get him something to eat. He glanced at Ali meaningfully, "Maybe it's because you're hungry that your body will feel weak." β
"Oh, good. Luo Luo's eyes swirled back and forth between the two men, and she always felt that something was weird, it couldn't be that she was too sensitive.
At this time, she remembered that the two had met for the first time, and the relationship was inevitably rusty, so it gave people a sense of disobedience. "By the way, you don't know each other yet, do you?" she pointed to Ali to Ning Shi, "This is Ali," and then she introduced to Ali with a glint in her eyes, "He is the Ning Shi I have been mentioning to you." β
For her, Ali is actually a very special existence. At the beginning of crossing and falling into a foreign country, although Ali almost caused her harm, he couldn't match the companionship and comfort he gave her during this time. If it weren't for Ali's support, she didn't know if she would have been able to persevere until now, or if she would have given up earlier.
Ning Shijiu has seen countless people in the mall, while Luo Luo is still as clean and simple as a blank piece of paper, all emotions are written on his face, and he naturally sees her special feelings and dependence on Ali.
Although my heart was stagnant and a little uncomfortable, my face still looked light, "We met earlier than you thought." β
Luo Luo was a little surprised, "Huh, you," looked back and forth between the two of them in surprise, "You already knew each other?"
"Hmm. "Go ahead, I'm a little hungry too." β
"Oh, good. β
Ali quietly watched the two of them come and go, just like a young couple who had been running in for a long time, and the stubborn and independent girl who was by his side before was now beside another man, like a bird who was dependent on people, well-behaved and obedient, and likable.
His already wooden heart began to ache again, deep into the bone marrow, irrepressible.
As soon as the girl's petite and delicate figure disappeared into the corner of the kitchen, Ning Shi let go of the hand holding Ali as if disgusted, took out a precious handkerchief and wiped it, and then said sarcastically: "Mr. Ali should still have the strength to walk in by himself." β
Alice snorted, glared back at him for a moment, and then walked back to the room himself. Ning Shi slowly followed behind him, like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity. And the quiet and warm cottage has become cramped and narrow at the moment because of the arrival of Ning Shi, and the lingering atmosphere between the two has become more and more awkward and tense.
Ali felt very uncomfortable all over his body, on the other hand, Ning Shi swaggered and sat on the chair without scruples, as if he was the guest and Ning Shi was the master of the house.
The man's slender and good-looking fingers picked up the magazine on the desk and flipped it twice, and said indifferently: "After tonight, I will let Luo Luo move to me." β
"Luo Luo wants to move away?" Ali couldn't help but be a little surprised, and then became suspicious, "That's all your decision, I don't believe she will agree." β
"Her whole person is mine, and I naturally have the final say on what decisions she makes. β
With such a blatant provocation, Ali gritted his teeth and forcibly restrained himself, barely allowing himself to get out of control.
If it weren't for Luo Luo still here, he would definitely rush up and slap this little white face hard!
"I advise you to take good care of your illness, you may not be able to win against me in a fight. β
Ali couldn't help but be shocked, the man in front of him could easily guess his thoughts, could it be that country C really has the legendary mind-reading technique?
Thinking like this, his eyes couldn't help but deepen his guard again.
The man sat at the table with his long legs folded, picked up the pen spread aside and left a line of beautiful numbers on the cover of the magazine at random, which was a string of mobile phone numbers, and his face was still cold, and he said lightly: "This is Min Jiu's personal phone, if you figure it out, you can find him." β
Early the next morning, William drove here, and Ning Shi had already taken the lead in helping Luo Luo pick and pack the so-called "luggage" and forcibly bring the person back to the car. On the way back, Luo Luo's spirit was a little cowardly, and she looked preoccupied, Ning Shi stared at her quietly for a while, and said, "What are you thinking?"
Luo Luo glanced at him and didn't shy away from it, "I'm thinking, Ah Li is still sick, isn't it good for me to leave with you like this." β
Ning Shi didn't pay attention to her anymore, silently glanced out the window, Luo Luo didn't hear the following for a long time, couldn't help but look back at him and then look at him, and asked, "What about you?"
Ning Shi sighed as if resigned, "I'm thinking, how can I let you stay by my side honestly." β
Luo Luo felt that what he said was a little inexplicable, and frowned, "I've always been there." β
He gently pinched her cheek as if in revenge, "At least let me know where you are in the future, and don't worry me anymore, okay." β
Luo Luo touched his cheek, which was a little painful, silently wrote it down, and then obediently snuggled in his arms.
Time flies quickly, and in the blink of an eye, December has arrived, and the weather is no longer as warm and warm as before, and the leaves are falling one after another. Luo Luo was very entangled and uneasy for a while in the post that had almost been reconciled, and finally resolutely submitted his resignation.
An Wei is right, a woman should not be a silk flower that is dependent on a man, she should create her own value. Obviously, as long as she stays in Shifeng for a day, she will be limited by Ning Shi's relationship.
She misses the busy days in the past, and looks forward to being a person who can really achieve something in the future without relying on external forces, so that she can be worthy of the proud and excellent Ning Shi, and can no longer feel inferior and cowardly because of others.
The resignation was presented to Ning Shi in a blink of an eye.
The man was silent for a moment, then tapped on the table, "Approve it." β
"This ......," William hesitated, "sir, you have to think about it, a woman is still safe under her nose." "This is the most earnest advice he's given to his boss from here.
"Since she would make such a decision, she must have been tormented by this matter for some time, besides," Ning Shi's eyes swept away, "hasn't she been under my nose all along?"
William spread his hands, but now he is confident, and he doesn't know who was unstable every day because of Miss Luo a while ago.
The day after Luo Luo's resignation, Shifeng Group released the news that the marriage date of the two was imminent, and then the media also exposed a large number of photos of Luo Luo.
Luo Luo only felt like crying without tears, originally she still wanted to apply for other companies, and then be an obscure little clerk, to realize her value step by step, now it's okay, the whole world seems to know her, walking on the street will be onlookers, her resume just hung on the Internet and received countless job invitations, what is it for, you can imagine.
For this reason, she and Ning Shi were angry for several days.
More chain reactions were still to come, and Mrs. Ning took the housekeeper to find the door while Ning Shi was away. In fact, Luo Luo is quite familiar with her, a kind and elegant but dignified old man, who she had been in contact with when she was under Zhong Luoluo's identity before.
It's just that this meeting completely subverted her previous thoughts, Mrs. Ning's eyes turned around her, looking round and round, and her face became more serious and disgusted again and again.
"Ordinary, too ordinary. Mrs. Ning's critical eyes pierced her, "I really don't know where my stupid grandson has taken a fancy to you." β
The smile on Luo Luo's face finally couldn't hold back, this "elegant and kind" old lady's attitude towards her and Zhong Luoluo's attitude towards herself are completely two different concepts.
However, she remembered that Ning Shi seemed to have had such an experience before she married the heroine of the original book, because of her mediocre background, she was not only disliked by Mrs. Ning, but also taken to the Ning family's old mansion to educate the rules, and suffered a lot of grievances for the previous and subsequent grievances.
Sure enough, in the next second, the housekeeper beside Mrs. Ning said: "Miss Luo, according to the rules of our Ning family, before getting married, you need to go to the old mansion to learn the rules of etiquette, the way of housekeeping, the way of assistance and the way of management. β
Luo Luo's heart trembled when she heard this, this tone sounded more like an arranged marriage in the style of an ancient big family, but it seemed that she didn't seem to have the right to say no at all. In the original book, when the heroine experienced this paragraph, it seems that Ning Shi did not object, so even if this matter is caused by Ning Shi, it may be the same result.
Amitabha, I just ask God to bless her through this hurdle safely.
Thinking of this, Luo Luo nodded, "Okay, then do I need to prepare anything?"
The housekeeper rejected her mercilessly, "Miss Luo doesn't need to prepare anything, the old mansion also has rules for what Miss eats and wears, and it will be prepared for you." β
"Oh, good. Luo Luo hesitated, "Then can I call Mr. and ......?"
Mrs. Ning cut her off, "I'll let you know when I'm young, is there any other problem?"
Where did Luo Luo dare to have any more problems, so he had to shake his head obediently.
"Then come with me. β
When he followed Mrs. Ning to the car, Luo Luo had only one thought in his heart, it was over!
Back at the Ning family's old house, the housekeeper took the lead to take her to the room that had been prepared a long time ago, she only had a brief tour, and before she could sit down, she was taken to meet Mrs. Ning.
I still remember that when we met for the first time, Mrs. Ning and the elders of the Ning family almost threw her into a well, and at that time I felt that I was quite righteous and awe-inspiring, but now I feel a little timid and afraid.
Fortunately, Old Lady Ning just asked a few words and asked her to step down. The rest of the time is to follow the unsmiling housekeeper and get acquainted with the entire Ning family's old mansion.
For dinner, Luo Luo was terrified to accompany the two rulers of the Ning family to dine, and the housekeeper stood behind her like a robot, and her stern gaze on her back made her even more restless, and she had no appetite while eating.
Mrs. Ning narrowed her eyes slightly, "Miss Luo, but the food is not to taste?"
Luo Luo suddenly felt flattered, and shook his head again and again, "No, it's delicious." β
Mrs. Ning smiled without smiling, and glanced at the housekeeper behind her lightly, and the other party immediately stepped forward to pick up vegetables for Luoluo.
"That's good, you usually have to eat more, only when your health is good can you give birth and raise, and continue the incense for our Ning family as soon as possible." β
Luoluo: "......"
At this moment, someone hurriedly came to the hall to report: "Old lady, Mrs. Tai, Mr. is back." β
Luo Luo's hand was so shocked that her chopsticks fell on the table, and then everyone's eyes shot at her, her face turned pale, she quickly picked it up, lowered her head, and tried to minimize her sense of existence. But even so, the two old men still looked at her, thinking that they were on their bodies. Perhaps because of their long high position, both of them have developed a momentum of not being angry and self-imposing, which makes Luo Luo more and more nervous.
Old lady Ning smiled rarely, "It's strange, I can't invite you on weekdays, but this time I came in a hurry." β
Mrs. Ning tried to defend Ning Shi, "Xiao was originally going to come back to see you, but it was a coincidence. β
Old Lady Ning raised her hand, "You don't have to comfort me, can I still not know what kind of virtue my own grandson is?"
Luo Luo didn't show it on his face, but he felt very interesting in his heart, and he couldn't imagine that Ning Shi, who was high up, was going to be scolded by his grandfather in private.
Soon Ning Shi walked in in front of everyone's eyes, with a long figure, a straight posture, high above, like flowing water in the mountains, elegant and handsome. It seems that wherever he appears, he will easily become the center of attention.
Luo Luo was also stunned, and only felt that it was really a very lucky thing to be cherished by such an excellent man.
For the first time, she was looking forward to the fact that the two were about to get married.
Ning Shi stood still at the table and bowed slightly, "Grandpa, grandma, I'm back." β
The tone is both rusty and indifferent......
Luo Luo's somewhat worried gaze began to turn around the three of them.
Old Lady Ning snorted coldly, "It's a shame that you still know that there is a grandfather like me." β
Mrs. Ning immediately stepped forward to play a round game, "I haven't eaten for a few hours, look at you and lose weight again, hurry up and sit down next to grandma......"
Before the words fell, Ning Shi had already sat calmly beside Luo Luo.
Mrs. Ning frowned unconsciously, and didn't say anything more.
A subordinate was about to add a pair of chopsticks, but Ning Shi didn't take it, and took the chopsticks in Luo Luo's hand, picked up a piece of bamboo shoots and tasted it: "It's really sweet, you can't get used to it, right?"
He said and looked at Luo Luo lightly.
The taste of the meals is actually made according to his old taste, which is what grandma has always been used to, whether he eats at Ning's house or not.
As soon as the words fell, Luo Luo once again became the focus of everyone, and even the subordinates couldn't help but glance at Luo Luo a few more times. Mr. has been a cleanliness fetish since he was a child, and he never shares utensils with others, which is a well-known thing!
This Miss Luo is really not simple.
Luo Luo laughed dryly, "It's okay, it's okay." β
Ning Shi put down his chopsticks, "If you don't like to eat, don't eat it, we'll go back to eat in a while." β
Luo Luo peeked at the two old men, and quietly kicked Ning Shi under the table, she grinded her teeth and looked at Ning Shi, and kept winking, "I've always loved sweets, have you forgotten?"
"Yo, I said why do you eat so little, it turns out that the food is not to taste, I told the kitchen, and it will be prepared according to Miss Luo's taste in the future." "Mrs. Ning's attitude towards her in front of Ning Shi is completely heaven and earth.
"No, I'll take her back in a moment. Ning Shi refused.
At this time, even Old Lady Ning was surprised, "You want to take her away?" Seeing Ning, he didn't deny it, and immediately became a nose that was not a nose and eyes were not eyes, and slapped the table, "Have you forgotten the rules of our Ning family?"
Luo Luo was frightened by this sudden anger, but Ning Shi said calmly: "No matter how big the rules of the Ning family are, they don't count with me. β
"You!" Old lady Ning was angry!
The atmosphere in the entire dining room has reached a tense point, Mrs. Ning looked at the tense grandfather and grandson, and her heart was anxious and sad, "Hour, I didn't say you, the new daughter-in-law must teach the rules in the Ning family before she gets married, this is a long-standing tradition, besides, she doesn't understand anything now, and she will become the head mother of the Ning family in the future, how do you let her serve the public? How to deal with all forces and relatives?"
"She doesn't need to worry about this," he said, looking at Luo Luo, his eyes deep, "I just want her to stay by my side with peace of mind." β
Sour is really sour, if it were someone else, Luo Luo would definitely lose his teeth, but from Ning Shi's mouth, he was not a little greasy, but his heart moved, and then he was infinitely moved.
In fact, she really wanted to tell Ning Shi that she was willing to stay here for him to learn those complicated and impersonal rules, as long as she could stay by his side and let her do anything.
It's just that the reality is that Ning Shi still doesn't let it go at all, "Besides, I'm not the head of the Ning family for a long time, you still have those rules and regulations for the next head of the family."
"Nonsense!" Old lady Ning was very angry, "Is the head of the Ning family the one you say you should be, and if you say you don't do it properly, you don't do it? What do you think of the Ning family? Where do you put us again?"
Ning Shi was indifferent, lowered his eyes and said: "Grandpa, I actually do this for the good of the Ning family, this time is different from the past, there will be many crises around me in the future, and the Ning family and I will be affected by being tied together." β
Luo Luo frowned, with her understanding of Ning Shi, he would not be a person who casually talked nonsense in order to get rid of something. What does he mean when he says that this is not the same as in the past? What is the crisis?
The more she thought about it, the more she couldn't think clearly, and the more she thought about it, the more worried she became. Forget it, Ning Shi is the male protagonist, and if you encounter any danger, you must turn evil into good fortune!
Old lady Ning stroked the white beard on his face, although it was very short, but it was very pretentious, he snorted coldly, "You bluffed your grandfather as a three-year-old child, right?"
"Okay, okay, how can you two meet and quarrel. β
"I've said everything I have to say, and I'll take the people away. Ning Shi said as he took Luo Luo's hand and got up.
Luo Luo had no choice but to stand up.
Old lady Ning also got on the bar, and slapped the table again, "She can't leave, if she wants to be the daughter-in-law of the Ning family, she has to follow the rules of the Ning family! Otherwise, she will never enter the door of my Ning family in the future!"
Ning Shi sank his face, not coerced at all, and dragged Luo Luo to turn around and leave, but Luo Luo couldn't be careless, and when he wanted to go back to Laning, he couldn't pull it, and he wanted to cry without tears.
The man's back was cold and cold, Luo Luo followed behind him, and suddenly realized that maybe Ning Shi was not as light as he seemed on the surface.
But it's all because of myself that things have come to this point.
She opened her mouth, and could only comforted weakly: "Ning Shi, in fact, I don't care, don't you just learn a little rule......?
Ning Shi interrupted her, "No, you can't stay here. β
"Why? I don't want you to mess with your grandfather like this for me. β
Ning Shi stopped walking and turned to look at her, "Have you forgotten what happened here last time?"
His voice was very cold and hard, like condensed ice, cold and resolute.
Luo Luo suddenly realized that what he was really worried about was this.
She tried to pull out a smile, but it seemed a little difficult to face such a stern gaze, "Well, it was just an accident." And I'm not standing here right now, right?"
Ning Shi stared at her with deep eyes, his face was full of firmness and stubbornness, "It's because you're still standing here that I can't afford any accidents." β
Luo Luo looked at him in a daze, the cool wind blew between the two, with a bitter fragrance of flowers, she couldn't tell what kind of flower it was, but felt that her eyes were sour and hot.
"Ning Shi ......" Her tears fell unexpectedly, and she tried to endure it, but failed.
Ning Shi frowned slightly, and roughly wiped away her tears, "What are you crying about." β
"Ning Shi, you are too good to me. Her surging emotions became more and more intense, and her voice was intermittent and a little choking.
The man was amused by her appearance, "You just know." β
She threw herself into his arms and was still crying, he patiently comforted them, and the two people stood under the moon, and the two figures gradually merged into one.
A long time has passed, and Luo Luo's ups and downs have finally regained her calmness, she raised her head and looked at him with a serious face, "Ning Shi, can I ask you a question?"
"Hmm. The man didn't even bother to give her a look, and responded lazily.
"What the hell do you like about me?"
In fact, she has been curious about this question for a long time, if it is not surprising that he would like her with such a beautiful face as Zhong Luoluo in the past, but in fact, she is simple, ordinary, and even mediocre later, but he still loves her like this.
There has never been a shortage of women around him, and any one of them can kill her in minutes, even she herself has had low self-esteem and doubts about it, but he is unmoved, until now, he still loves her deeply, only loves her.
The girl's mind is more delicate and exquisite, he doesn't say many things, she can feel it, maybe there have been wavering and doubts, but after experiencing one thing after another, those ridiculous doubts have long disappeared.
The man's gaze fell into the distance, and the large courtyard was stacked on top of the small courtyard, and everywhere was brightly lit, but the mystery of the night was still full of farther away.
yes, what does he like about her?
The man couldn't help laughing, and the low and beautiful voice overflowed from his throat so naturally, and Luo Luo laughed embarrassedly when he heard it, and her question seemed to be a little childish and pretentious.
But isn't it normal for men and women in love to be hypocritical? She doesn't want to wait until she is seventy or eighty in the future and still don't know the answer, and when the time comes, he may not be able to answer seriously.
The atmosphere is just right.
He glanced down at her, his eyes full of ridicule and doting, "Actually, I thought you were a little annoying at first. β
"Huh?" After thinking of countless reasons, Luo Luo didn't expect such an answer at all, she was a little surprised and a little unwilling to poke her head out of his arms, "Why do you hate me? Even if I'm not good-looking, but cuteness is always a bit of a loss, right?"
Ning Shi pursed his lips and began to stop talking.
Luo Luo waited a little anxiously, "You say, hurry up." β
Ning Shi narrowed his eyes slightly, and quietly changed the conversation, "It's all old things, and it doesn't matter, I love you very much now, can't it." β
Luo Luo looked at him with a blank eye, "But I think it's very important, why do you hate me?
She felt like she was on a roller coaster, falling directly from the high to the low, she never thought that Ning Shi hated her at first!
Ning Shi saw that she looked more serious, and couldn't help but hold her forehead, obviously feeling that something was wrong, why did he really say it?
It was getting late, Ning Shi simply brought Luo Luo back to the Huantan Palace, Ji Meizhi, who had not seen her for a long time, seemed to be more graceful and dignified than before, and she was very polite and polite when she saw Luo Luo.
It's a pity that Luo Luo has always been in good spirits, and what is going over and over in his mind is the past of the two people, and it seems that Ning Shi has always been chasing her in his memory, and he can't figure out what he annoyed him, why do he chase her since he hates her, and he always wants to sleep with her.
The more she thought about it, the more sad and unfair she felt in her heart.
Ning Shi came out of the shower, and saw Luo Luo who was shrunk into a ball in the quilt, his whole head was covered, his heart sank, and he walked over and carefully wanted to lift the quilt, but he didn't expect Luo Luo to immediately grab the quilt and prevent him from lifting it.
"Alright," he tried to coax, "let me see what the hell is wrong with you." β
Luo Luo stubbornly refused to let go, and Ning Shi had to increase his strength and forcibly lift the quilt.
It wasn't cold in the room, she covered her face, sweat and tears on her face.
Ning Shi looked at her quietly for a while, and reached out to pick up the broken hair that was scattered on her face, but she slapped it away.
"Don't touch me. Luo Luo's voice was awkward and aggrieved, and he touched it with his other hand, trying to cover himself with the quilt.
What could be more sad than learning that her sweetheart once hated herself?
She thought she might need to calm herself down for a while.
Ning Shi knew what it was because of his practical toes when he thought about it, and it was just because she asked, he said casually, he didn't expect her to mind so much.
He sighed softly, lay down beside her, half-hugged her in his arms, and ordered, "Lift the quilt." β
"No, I don't. The girl's muffled voice came from the quilt.
He was tempting, "If you don't lift the quilt, how can I tell you what I like about you?"
The girl in her arms paused and lost her voice.
Ning Shi couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips, why did he like her? Isn't this an obvious thing? She can always dominate his emotions, making him inexplicably happy and inexplicably angry.
"Actually, I didn't really hate you at the beginning, it's just that you're different from the women I've seen before. β
A pair of red rabbit eyes poked out of the quilt, "What's different about me?" she sniffed, isn't it all one nose and two eyes?
The man seemed to think seriously about the wording, "Because of my identity, I have always been very indifferent to feelings, but there will always be people who send women to me, using various methods to make me annoyed." β
Luo Luo blinked his red eyes, "So you also hated Zhong Luoluo at that time?"
"Well, it's not a nuisance, but I think that since I have to stuff a woman in the house, it is better to let them pick one that they are satisfied with. I can let it go, I can ignore it, and after a long time, people will cross the line, and if I violate my bottom line, I will send people away. β
"At that time, I thought that Zhong Luoluo seemed to be quite honest, so I didn't ask much, until one day I was drunk, and she sneaked into my room, and now that I think about it, it seems that I have to thank her. He couldn't help but laugh to himself, before going to look for her in another world, the mysterious old man showed him all the intersections between him and Luo Luo, and then he suddenly realized that the first meeting between him and her originated from that unpleasant night.
Luo Luo listened carefully, completely lifted the quilt, sat up cross-legged and faced him, "What about later?"
"Later......" He had a chance to pin her messy sideburns behind her ears, "you fell on my beloved Yabai, and made the Huantan Palace a miasma, and I thought that since you don't like it here, I'll give you a sum of money and let you go." β
Luo Luo couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, she had just crossed over, and she had indeed done a lot of ridiculous things.
"After actually getting in touch with you a few times, I realized," the man recalled, "that you're quite funny, besides being rude, casual, and a little noisy." β
Luo Luo's face was red, and his eyes widened to defend himself: "What is called rudeness, casual and a little noisy? I was very quiet in private! At that time, it was just a special situation!"
Ning Shi doted on her nose, "Mmmmmmmm, I fell in love with you because I found you very quiet." β
Although he knew that Ning Shi was coaxing her when he said this, for some reason, Luo Luo's heart was still sweet, and he was even a little satisfied.
"And then, then?" she hadn't heard enough.
Ning Shi looked at her, with a gentle smile in his eyes, "Look at your appearance, this is not angry." β
Luo Luo pouted, "Am I such a stingy person?"
"Then I found out that I was in love with you. His eyes twinkled, deliberately teasing her, "No, you can sleep." β
Luo Luo's little face immediately fell, "It's so perfunctory......"
"It's true, I have a very important meeting tomorrow, and I have to wake up early. He took her in his arms and kissed her, then turned off the wall lamp and coaxed, "Go to sleep." β
In the dark night, the girl quickly fell into a deep sleep, nested in a small lump in his arms, but the man was extremely awake at the moment.
In fact, when he really found out that he was in love with her, it was in the ambush of the Shen family, the other party calculated his itinerary and location too accurately, the first thing he suspected was her, everything was because of her, and he made up his mind at that time, whether the inner ghost was her or not, he couldn't stay anymore.
Any preference may become his fatal weakness, in a high position, if you want to survive for a long time, you have to become an iron wall, no holes. He was a little interested in her, but he couldn't give it up.
Since he was a child, he has given up too much.
It's just that when he actually raised the gun to her chest, her fluttering liking made him change his mind in an instant, he knew that she was lying, but he still couldn't do it.
He couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly, looked at the sleeping face in his arms, and kissed her lightly on her lips, without any lust.
I cried so sadly just when I just said that I hated her, it seems that I really have to be careful when I talk in the future.
"All I love is your pure whiteness. He whispered.
The closer you get, the more you are attracted, and the more you want to catch it, the deeper you fall.
