"Where is this going?" Li Qing lowered his head slightly, looking out of the car window. As night fell, the streets became less crowded with pedestrians.

The car happened to turn a corner at this moment, and Li Qing suddenly saw the street sign at the crossroads.

Changde Road.

Li Qing's body stiffened, he turned his head to look at Xie Zhongbo beside him, and stopped talking.

Xie Zhongbo had an unfathomable and wonderful expression on his face: "Brother, it's all here, let's go in and sit down." ”

Li Qing fell silent.

No. 72 Changde Road is Mu Rouer's residence. When Li Qingchu returned to Lingang, he also spent a very unforgettable time in this villa.

"I didn't tell you beforehand. Xie Zhongbo said in a low voice, "I'm afraid you won't come if you know." ”

Li Qing said slowly: "My relationship with her has not been cold to this extent. ”

"I know. Xie Zhongbo nodded, and then breathed a sigh of relief, "But after all, it's a thing of the past, and it's not easy to face after all." ”

"That's what she meant?"

"Yes. Xie Zhongbo nodded again, "Sister Rou'er said that if she came to meet you, it would be too abrupt, so she wanted me to talk to you." But then I thought about it, it would be better to bring you over directly, and if you say it too clearly, it will embarrass everyone. ”

Li Qing asked, "What does she want to do?"

Xie Zhongbo turned his head and glanced at Li Qing: "Brother, you really seem ruthless when you ask this." ”

"It's not ruthless, I'm genuinely curious. Li Qing looked sincere, "Don't hide it, I met with her the day before the negotiation meeting, alas, how can I say it at that time." ”

"Then don't talk about it, the relationship between two people, don't show it casually. The car stopped in front of the villa at No. 72 Changde Road, Xie Zhongbo took the lead in opening the car door, and he glanced at Li Qing deeply when he got out of the car, "I don't know Sister Rou'er's intentions." ”

After he finished speaking, he got out of the car, stepped up the steps, and stood in front of the door to arrange his clothes with a solemn face.

When Li Qing pushed the car door and was about to get out of the car, the driver suddenly raised his hand and handed over a bouquet of flowers: "Mr. Li, our young master has prepared it for you." ”

Li Qing was slightly stunned, staring at the beautiful bouquet of pure white flowers: "What kind of flower is this?"

"I don't know," the driver hesitated slightly, and said uncertainly, "It seems to be a hyacinth." ”

"Oh, thanks. Li Qing stretched out his hand to take it, turned around and got out of the car.

He stood at the foot of the steps at the door of the villa with a hesitant face, Xie Zhongbo glanced back at him, smiled lightly, and then raised his hand to ring the doorbell.

After waiting for a while, the door opened gently, and Mu Rou'er, who was wearing an apron around her waist, appeared at the door, with a sweet smile on her delicate cheeks: "Zhongbo." ”

"Sister Rou'er. Xie Zhongbo smiled softly, turned around and beckoned to Li Qing, "Brother, are you standing so far away and counting the stars?"

Li Qing turned his head and looked at Mu Rou'er at the door, and a smile slowly appeared on her cheeks.

He took a few steps up the steps, handed over the flowers in his hand, and called softly, "Rou'er." ”

"Hmm. Mu Rouer replied softly in a nasal voice, took the bouquet of flowers and held it in her arms, "Come in, what are you doing standing outside the door." ”

Li Qing and Xie Zhongbo glanced at each other, and the two of them walked into the room back and forth.

Xie Zhongbo raised his head and sniffed in the room, and asked with a smile, "Sister Rou'er, what are you doing again?" Just smelling this smell makes my saliva drip down." ”

"You're a glutton. Mu Rouer snorted lightly, turned around and inserted the white bouquet of flowers into the vase on the table, "Hyacinth, it's the flowers that Zhongbo bought." ”

Mu Rou'er turned to stare at Xie Zhongbo, the corners of her lips were smiling, her eyes were shining, revealing wisps of meaningful brilliance.

Xie Zhongbo touched his nose in embarrassment and laughed dryly: "Sister Rou'er, this flower is obviously in Brother Qing's hand, how can you guess that I gave it to you." ”

"He's not going to give me hyacinths. Mu Rou'er wrinkled her nose, glanced at Li Qing with beautiful eyes, and then turned around and walked quickly to the kitchen, "Wash your hands, we'll start eating right away." ”

Xie Zhongbo froze in place, his back straightened. A somewhat embarrassed look appeared on his face, which made a trace of confusion quietly flash in Li Qing's eyes.

"What's wrong?" Li Qing walked up to Xie Zhongbo, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder.

"Ah, nothing. Xie Zhongbo woke up like a dream in an instant, and said with a smile, "Wash your hands and go help." ”

After the words fell, Xie Zhongbo walked straight to the bathroom. Leaving Li Qing standing in place, he turned his head and took a deep look at the white flowers on the table.

It wasn't until a long time later that Li Qing suddenly understood that the flower language of the white hyacinth was a love that she dared not show, representing the deepest secret love. However, at this moment, Li Qing still can't understand the mystery between the three people.

Li Qing walked slowly to the kitchen, he leaned quietly against the door, and looked at Mu Rou'er who was busy in a field of steam.

"What's wrong?" Mu Rou'er turned her head to look at Li Qing, "You can see that I'm so nervous." ”

"Huh. Li Qing smiled slightly, "This scene is like a fairy descending to earth and wading into red dust and fire." ”

Mu Rou'er giggled, "Did you smear honey on your mouth before you came?" ”

After washing his hands, Xie Zhongbo walked to the door of the kitchen and asked with a smile: "What are you talking about?

Li Qing was about to speak, but Mu Rou'er glanced at him beautifully, and her pretty face was a little ashamed: "Have you washed your hands?

"Zhongbo, bring this to the table, don't just stand. ”

Xie Zhongbo nodded hurriedly: "Okay, well, how can there be a reason to just eat and not work." ”

"Hahahaha, she can't help but boast. Li Qing smiled and turned to wash his hands, and when he walked back to the restaurant, plates of exquisite dishes had been placed on the table.

Xie Zhongbo opened a bottle of red wine, Mu Rou'er was dividing the dishes, raised her little face and greeted Li Qing with a smile: "Come and eat." ”

"Hmm. Li Qing nodded, walked over and pulled out a chair and sat down.

The three of them sat around the dining table to eat, talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

When the meal was about to be finished, Xie Zhongbo's mobile phone suddenly rang.

"I'm sorry, I'm going to answer the phone. ”

Xie Zhongbo walked out of the restaurant, turned back after a while, and said apologetically: "Something happened to me here, I have to leave a little earlier." ”

Li Qing was about to stand up, but Mu Rou'er's pretty little face suddenly flashed with a hint of coldness: "If you want to leave, I won't stay." ”

His body stiffened slightly, and Li Qing slowly sat down again: "I'm really not busy today, not busy at all." ”

Xie Zhongbo grinned: "I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry here." ”

"Well, go ahead, work is important. Mu Rou'er said with a smile, and the cold expression just now disappeared in an instant.

"Well, then I'll go first. Xie Zhongbo picked up his clothes from his chair, waved at Li Qing and Mu Rou'er, and turned around and walked out of the restaurant.

Li Qing turned his head to look out of the restaurant, until there was a sound of the door closing outside, and then he pouted and muttered: "This kid did it on purpose, right?"

"What?"

"Ah, nothing. Li Qing waved his hand and turned his head back to stare at Mu Rou'er's pretty cheeks.

"Something for you. Mu Rouer picked up the goblet and took a sip, "According to my father's wishes, I will be an independent director of Gangbei International next week." So in the future, we may be working together for a long time, so we will take care of it. ”

Li Qing opened his mouth in surprise: "Really?"

"Really. ”

"Oh. Li Qing nodded, "It seems that Uncle Mu intends to let you take over the affairs of Gangbei International, I have to say that your negotiation level that day was very good." ”

Mu Rou'er glared at Li Qing angrily: "You're making fun of me." ”

Li Qing smiled silently.

"Still, thank you for taking care of you that day. At first, my father said that it would be more appropriate for me to negotiate on his behalf, but I didn't understand it until the moment I signed the temporary contract. Mu Rou'er smiled and raised her glass, "I took advantage of you and made amends to you." ”

"That's so polite. Li Qing also picked up the wine glass and touched it lightly with Mu Rou'er, and then raised his head and drank the red wine in the glass.

"Alas. Mu Rouer put down her wine glass and sighed softly, "I really didn't expect that one day the two of us would be like friends, sitting here and being polite to each other." ”

Li Qing wanted to say something, but Mu Rou'er stretched out her jade hand and waved it in front of Li Qing.

Seeing that she picked up the wine bottle and added half a glass of red wine, Li Qing hurriedly said, "Drink less." ”

Mu Rouer raised her head, perhaps due to the effect of alcohol, her pretty face flushed a faint crimson: "Are you afraid that I will lose my temper after drinking?"

The corners of his mouth tugged slightly, but Li Qing didn't know what to say. He knew very well in his heart that the damage he had caused to this woman could not be reparated in this life and this life.

After Xie Zhongbo left, only Li Qing and Mu Rou'er were left in the empty villa, and the atmosphere became more and more heavy.

"I carefully considered your words yesterday. Mu Rou'er shook the goblet in her hand, and her red lips opened lightly, "Li Qing, what you said is very reasonable, I have always been centered on you for so many years, which is really ridiculous." Maybe the more you value something, the more you can't get it. I don't deserve pity that I'm where I am now. ”

The more she said this, the more Li Qing's eyes were full of guilt.

"Cheers. The corners of Mu Rou'er's mouth suddenly flashed with a heartfelt smile, "Li Qing, tonight should be my birthday." ”

Li Qing had a thousand words blocked in his heart, but in the end, he only turned into two bland words: "Congratulations." ”

He picked up the wine glass and touched it lightly with Mu Rou'er, raised his head and drank the wine. Under the soft light, I quietly stared at the beautiful woman in front of me, and remembered the past 30 years, like a dream.

Her crying, her laughter, and layers of memories will all turn into a bubbling stream, flowing quietly in Li Qing's heart. ,
