"Knock knock!"

Li Zechen was dealing with mail in the study when he heard a knock on the door and said, "Come in!"

Looking up, Jiang Lai opened the door and walked towards him.

"Joey gone?"

Jiang Lai nodded: "Well, I was thinking of having lunch together, but her boyfriend suddenly came, so she left in a hurry." ”

Li Zechen bowed slightly, and when he saw that she looked like she had something to say, he simply asked first: "Do you want to tell me?"

"I just wanted to ask you if there are any books here that I can borrow to read, and I don't really want to go online these two days. ”

Li Zechen naturally understood the implication. Then he said: "Of course, because I can't go back to the apartment for the time being, I moved some important things here." ”

He pointed to the bookshelf, "Pick it yourself, see if there's anything you like!"

Jiang Lai nodded: "Okay!"

Li Zechen's gaze continued to return to the computer screen, but there was one more person, and he would still be distracted, especially if this person was still the person he always cared about.

Looking up, Jiang Lai was in front of the bookshelf, carefully selecting, taking out a book, flipping through it, and carefully putting it back. Occasionally, I would shake my head, probably because I saw the original books.

After watching it for a while, I was about to concentrate on my work, when I suddenly heard Jiang Lai's "huh".

As soon as he looked up, he saw her take out a book from the bookshelf and scan the cover of the book, Li Zechen's expression was stunned, and he was discovered!

Jiang Lai was even more surprised to see this book here. Turned his head to look at Li Zechen: "Why is this book here for you?"

Li Zechen's expression was a little unnatural, but it was only instantaneous. There is no emotion in the actor's dictionary that cannot be contained.

He stood up and walked to Jiang Lai's side, met her puzzled gaze, and said in a flat tone, "I picked it up!"

"Picked up?"

Jiang Lai really didn't expect this answer, and asked, "Where did you pick it up?"

Li Zechen didn't answer and asked: "This book is very important to you?"

"Of course," Jiang Lai replied without thinking, "this is what Si Ling sent me after "Mrs. Yunhu" was printed. It was the first book I ever published, and it was very significant. And I read it and wrote a lot of comments on it. ”

As she spoke, she opened the book and showed it to Li Zechen.

Li Zechen smiled lightly, of course he knew that he had read this book many times.

He'd read every word.

"You haven't told me where you picked it up?"

"And do you remember where you lost it?"

Jiang Lai thought for a while: "It should be when I first went to Shanghai to discuss film and television adaptations, I remember on the plane, I still think about it, and after I arrived at the hotel, I disappeared." Most likely, it was landed on the plane and got on the ......"

Li Zechen admitted: "That's right, I picked it up on the plane!"

In Jiang Lai's incredulous gaze, he told all the circumstances of that day: "When I got off the plane that day, there was a girl who was sleeping in a daze, and the flight attendant woke her up, and she stood up and walked out.

"When I got up to go out, I found the book in my seat. I wanted to return it to her, but when I walked out, I couldn't find her anymore, so I had to leave the book behind. Later, when I learned that the book was going to be adapted into a film and television drama, I would go to audition. When I was in the crew of "Jincheng", I accidentally discovered that the careless girl who pulled down the book was its author. ”

"So coincidentally?"

Li Zechen chuckled: "It's such a coincidence, I sat behind you at that time." ”

If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, Jiang Lai would have felt that this coincidence was too amazing.

"The ...... in this book Have you seen them all?"

"Of course!"

Thinking that he had read everything she wrote in this book, Jiang Lai was a little embarrassed.

At that time, the writing was not very proficient, and some of the annotations written were still some small moods from the reader's point of view.

And these are seen.

Li Zechen took a step forward, blocked her between himself and the bookshelf, lowered his head and looked at her at eye level: "What are you thinking?"

Jiang Lai raised his head, his eyes sparkling: "Since you know that the book is mine, why don't you give it back to me?"

Li Zechen said "um".

What does "um" mean?

"I thought about paying it back before, but after I knew it was yours, I suddenly didn't want to pay it back!"

Jiang Lai's eyes widened slightly, what does it mean to 'know that it's hers and don't want to pay it back'!

"Why?"

The innocent eyes made Li Zechen couldn't help but bow his head, and bit her lip lightly: "Stupid!"

There is a little more annoyance in the innocence, where is she stupid?

"Who are you now?"

"Huh?"

Jiang Lai didn't understand what he meant.

Li Zechen touched her with the tip of his nose: "The book is yours, but you are mine now, so the book is mine, why should I return it?"

The red on Jiang Lai's ears had quickly spread to his cheeks, and he couldn't speak: "You, what kind of crooked reasoning are you?"

"What's wrong?"

Li Zechen raised his hand to touch the back of her neck, feeling the hot temperature with satisfaction.

Jiang Lai vaguely sensed a hint of danger and just wanted to admit it.

"Why didn't you answer the phone when I was in Shanghai?"

"Huh?" Jiang Lai looked at him confusedly, "When?"

"You hurt your foot that time. ”

Seeing Jiang Lai's eyes change from confused to empty-hearted, Li Zechen knew that she remembered.

"I'll reward you if I'm satisfied!"

Li Zechen leaned too close, and the warm breath brushed through her cheeks, tickling.

Irresistible sultry.

"Huh?"

Jiang Lai couldn't help but shrink his neck: "How can I satisfy you?"

Li Zechen's eyes caught her tightly: "Tell the truth!"

She didn't dare to look up, and said in a low voice, "Pull ...... Blocked!"

Li Zechen raised his eyebrows, and a chuckle overflowed from his throat.

Hearing this laughter, Jiang Lai's heart became even more empty.

"Look up!"

Jiang Lai turned a deaf ear and pretended to be dead.

Until the chin is gently pinched, lifted.

She had to look him squarely.

The sunlight outside the window is just right.

The smell of sunshine wafted in the study, warm and sweet.

And the brilliance in his eyes was deep and gloomy.

Before he could beg for mercy, his lips were gagged.

Her eyes widened in disbelief, and she was forced to bear it.

The numbness sensation spread from the lips all the way to the whole body, and the whole person couldn't move.

There was only one thought in his head, and he asked this question just to kiss her?

At the end of this long moment, she could only hold Li Zechen's arm tightly.

As soon as I let go, I'm afraid I won't be able to stand.

Li Zechen pinched the fingers of her chin, and the next moment it landed on her red lips and rubbed it a few times.

In her incredulous gaze, Shen said in a deep voice, "This is a reward for you!"

Reward?!

How she felt like a reward for herself!

After such a distraction, she never thought to discuss the ownership of the book.

--

After having lunch together at noon, the two of them returned to the study.

Originally, Jiang Lai was going to take the book out to read, but he was not unexpectedly refused.

She was a little distracted at first, but she was gradually attracted to the content of the book.

Suddenly, the phone she had placed on the table suddenly lit up.

"Jiang Lai!"

"Huh?"

Jiang Jiang's voice call. ”

Jiang Lai let out an "oh" and walked over directly with the book.

Picking up the phone, Jiang Jiang said in a very anxious tone: "Sister, have you read Weibo, that Gu Qingyin was interviewed by reporters, it is not clear on the phone, you can see for yourself, it's too annoying!"

Jiang Lai's expression froze instantly, and he reacted for a moment before saying, "Okay, I know!"

Li Zechen noticed that something was wrong with her, and just wanted to ask her, his mobile phone rang too.

It's Liao Qi.

"Zechen, the video of Gu Qingyin's interview has been spread on Weibo, and now the number of retweets has exceeded 10,000, and it is still rising!"

The corners of Li Zechen's mouth pressed down, looked at Jiang Lai's ugly face, and the coldness in his eyes rose slightly: "Got it." How's it going?"

"Almost!"

"Okay, don't worry about the video, wait until the heat reaches its peak, send out the evidence!"

"Okay, I see!"

Jiang Lai had already clicked on the video, and the blood on his face turned white inch by inch.

When the reporter mentioned the plagiarism incident, Gu Qingyin smiled indifferently and only said one sentence: "The matter has passed, and I don't want to mention it anymore, I have always believed that justice is in the hearts of the people, and right and wrong are determined." ”

It seems to be a sentence without a point, but listening to it in the ears of someone with a heart is something in the words, meaning something.

Jiang Lai really didn't know if she owed Gu Qingyin in her previous life, so she let her hurt herself again and again.

Suddenly, a hand appeared in front of her eyes and covered the screen of her phone.

She looked up, the panic and anger in her eyes still not gone.

Li Zechen took the mobile phone from her hand, put it on the table, and then held her hand and gently forced, took the person into his arms, and gently stroked her hair.

"It's okay, this matter will have a result today. ”

Jiang Lai leaned on his chest and slowly quieted down: "Am I quite useless, I have been forced to have no way out, but I don't say a word." ”

"There are some things that don't change with just a word you say. ”

This is the reason why Jiang Lai has been shrinking and unwilling to face it. It's not that she didn't think about clarifying on Weibo, even to show her attitude. But every time she saw those comments and glaring news headlines, she really didn't know how to prove her innocence. Even if it is said, will anyone believe it?

She knows that many people don't care about the truth, they just want to see the excitement, and they only believe what they want to believe.

Li Zechen sighed lightly and rubbed the top of her head with his chin: "But don't worry, tonight, everything will be over." From now on, no one will dare to touch you again!"

Jiang Lai looked up at him.

Li Zechen pulled her hair behind her ears and told her, "Liao Qi is done." ”

Jiang Lai's eyes lit up suddenly: "Really?"

Li Zechen scratched her nose: "When did I lie to you?"

Jiang Lai hurriedly shook her head, and the tears in her eyes blurred her vision uncontrollably.

She returned to Li Zechen's arms and hugged his waist tightly: "Thank you, it's good to have you!"

Li Zechen was slightly stunned for a moment, and then used his intact left hand to hold the person tighter in his arms, and his voice was full of joy: "I accepted this sentence, and I will remember it for the rest of my life!"
