Zhu Jinhua frowned and urged: "Don't be polite and polite, keep up, don't delay your uncle's time." ”

Tong Qiangqiang bit his lip and finally followed.

Looking at her reluctant back, Hu Xiaoting strangely mentioned again: "This Qiang Qiang seems to be really afraid of Han Lie." ”

Zhu Jinhua turned around and asked Hu Xiaoting: "What did you just say that Han Lie protected Qiang Qiang in the morning?"

"Cut," Hu Xiaoting's tone was sour and unpleasant, "I just asked Qiang Qiang to pour me a glass of juice, Han Lie thought that I was deliberately bullying Qiang Qiang, his expression was so cold, as if Qiang Qiang was his daughter-in-law, I had never seen Wen Hao protect the calf like this." ”

"Oh?" Zhu Jinhua was silent thoughtfully for a few seconds, his expression was a little strange, and Hu Xiaoting was puzzled: "What's wrong, sister-in-law?

"Nothing. Zhu Jinhua shook his head, looked at the still closed study, and showed a look of unknown meaning: "Follow the old man's wishes." He's going to shoot himself in the foot. The tone sounded clear.

Hu Xiaoting never dared to despise this sister-in-law, and when she heard this, she rolled her eyes, and suspected that Zhu Jinhua was secretly making some calculations.

Maggie came to Han Lie on the orders of Mai Xiuze, but she was not with Han Lie, and when she left the Zhong Mansion, she parted ways with their uncle and nephew to do other things.

Tong Qiangqiang reluctantly watched Maggie go, and turned around, Han Lie's silver Land Rover stopped on the side of the road, and the passenger door was open for her.

"Uncle, if you have something important, go and get busy first, I'm not in a hurry, you can take a ride by yourself." Tong Qiangqiang bent down and tried to refuse Han Lie's kindness again.

Han Lie raised his eyebrows, and suddenly said, "Sister-in-law doesn't seem to know that you work outside?"

"......" Tong Qiangqiang's eyes widened, and he deeply reflected the threat from it, and got into the car in despair and discouragement.

After getting in the car, Tong Qiangqiang always quietly stared out the window and looked at the scenery, trying to eliminate his sense of existence in the narrow space. However, it didn't take long for the silence to be inevitably broken by Han Lie first.

"You seem to be afraid of me?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, Tong Qiangqiang's scalp tightened, and he even felt a layer of cold sweat oozing from the tip of his nose in an instant. She quickly put on an ignorant expression, pretending not to hear him clearly: "Ah, uncle, what did you say?"

Han Lie's eyes swept away, and there was a smile in his eyes: "I said that the rabbit's ears were about to be broken by you." ”

Tong Qiangqiang was stunned, followed his gaze and looked down, and saw that his fingers were tightly twisting the rabbit head pendant on the bag, and he was busy letting go.

Han Lie used his afterglow to take in her panicked expression and hooked his lips, "You're afraid of me." ”

This time, she didn't even have a chance to answer "yes or no", and she directly used an affirmative tone.

Tong Qiangqiang didn't want to deny it, after all, her performance was clearly there, several times, and Han Lie was not sluggish. It's just that to be precise, she's either afraid of him, or nervous. As soon as I saw him, I was inexplicably nervous.

"Why?" Han Lie asked, seemingly having made up his mind to take advantage of today's opportunity to figure it out.

Tong Qiangqiang licked his dry lips awkwardly, and explained: "I...... I'm more scared of life. Later...... It's good to get along for a long time in the future. ”

"Really?" Han Lie's tone was playful, clearly reserved about her answer.

But Tong Qiangqiang thinks she's not lying. Maybe the second half of the sentence is polite, but the first half of the sentence is true.

She admits that the oolong when she first met in the bathroom really laid the foundation for her embarrassment that she couldn't get rid of him. But after a few short contacts, Han Lie gave her the feeling of being like a flower that looked beautiful but tightly held bones, and no one knew whether it would bloom or secrete poisonous juice after touching it.

Unfathomable, so it invisibly makes her afraid of the unknown. As a result, it is completely understandable that she is easily nervous in the face of Han Lie.

This morning, the atmosphere of the Zhong Mansion was fully reflected, no matter what Han Lie's true thoughts were, his appearance had already made a new splash to the already unpeaceful Zhong Mansion.

She didn't want to get involved in the internal interest struggle of the Zhong family, so she was even more vigilant about staying away from Han Lie in the future.

After thinking about it, he saw Han Lie tilting his head slightly and squinting at her, "Then get along more with each other in the future." ”

Tong Qiangqiang: "......"

Rongda is not far from the Zhong Mansion and arrives quickly. Tong Qiangqiang couldn't wait to unbuckle his seat belt, "Thank you, uncle, I'll get out of the car first." ”

Han Lie called her, "Wait a minute. ”

Tong Qiangqiang turned his head in response.

Han Lie leaned half over towards her, leaning very close to her, one hand picking up her chin, the other hand ruffling her oblique bangs, and carefully examining her forehead.

Tong Qiangqiang froze for a moment.

In the next second, Han Lie gently touched a place on her forehead with his fingertips.

Suddenly there was a pain.

Because of this pain, Tong Qiangqiang suddenly came back to his senses, immediately shrank back, his back pressed against the car door, and looked at Han Lie in fright: "Little, uncle, you ......"

Han Lie ignored Tong Qiangqiang's reaction, pondered for a second, took out a band-aid from the box in the car, tore a small corner, and made a gesture to help Tong Qiangqiang put it on.

Tong Qiangqiang hurriedly stretched out his hand to answer: "I, I'll come by myself." ”

"Don't move. Han Lie avoided Tong Qiangqiang's hand, his voice was extremely deep, and his eyes were also dark.

Tong Qiangqiang watched, his heartbeat skipping a beat. Han Lie took advantage of this moment to put a band-aid on her forehead, and pressed it on both sides with his thumb before letting go.

The warm and slightly rough touch is as if I had felt it in a dream.

"Is this often the case?" Han Lie asked.

Tong Qiangqiang raised his hand and touched his forehead. The location where Zhong Ruchen was hit with a "grenade" is very close to the small scar that was knocked down by Zhong Wenhao a few days ago.

"Not really. Tong Qiangqiang pursed his lips.

"Oh yes, I forgot. You're used to it. Han Lie narrowed his eyes slightly, and his words changed suddenly, and the mockery contained was exactly the same as at that time.

Tong Qiangqiang was stunned, and there was a vague realization in his heart: his ridicule didn't seem to be aimed at her.

"Let's go. Han Lie leaned over to her again and helped her open the car door.

Tong Qiangqiang quietly sniffed the faint smell of tobacco from him, and said goodbye softly: "Goodbye, uncle." ”

After walking into the school gate, Tong Qiangqiang unconsciously turned around.

The silver Land Rover was still parked on the side of the road and did not drive away. The glass of the car window was shaking, gradually obscuring Han Lie's neat chin until it was completely invisible.

Tong Qiangqiang turned around and continued his footsteps.

Han Lie's hand was on the gear, and he was about to restart when a phone call from Mai Xiuze came in.

"Where are the people?"

"Rong Gate. ”

"With your little nephew?" Mai Xiuze's tone was mean, and the next sentence was even more, "How's it going?"

Han Lie tilted his head, and through the dark glass, he caught a glimpse of Tong Qiangqiang's back just disappearing from sight, and said lightly: "Timid, cowardly, and shy." ”

"That's what the investigation report suggests. ”

"No, the investigation report is not accurate. ”

"Huh?"

Han Lie leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes, and Tong Qiangqiang's eyes full of anxiety and vigilance appeared in front of him a few minutes ago. Rubbing his eyebrows, he concluded succinctly: "She is very sensitive. ”

Sensitive, so the precautionary psychology is particularly strong. It looks like a soft bun, but it's actually ......

Mai Xiuze sneered without hesitation: "Hey, you shouldn't be able to handle it, right? I spent the capital to help you raise the guinea pig for more than half a year." ”

Han Lie smiled coldly: "What do you think?"

When I arrived at Professor Zhou's office, the time was just right. As soon as she walked in, someone stood up and greeted her happily: "Qiangqiang, are you here?"

Seeing that it was An Jinghong, Tong Qiangqiang bent his eyebrows: "Senior brother, why are you here?"

The other party is a student under Professor Zhou's hand with her, but An Jinghong is a graduate student.

Because of the relationship between the Zhong family, Tong Qiangqiang never revealed his identity at school, and most of the time he was alone, so he had very few classmates, let alone acquaintances. Thanks to the same door, An Jinghong is a rare one who is close to her.

"Professor Zhou has something to deal with temporarily, and he knows that you are coming, so he specially asked me to wait for you here. ”

Tong Qiangqiang looked disappointed: "So you can't change your paper today?"

"So didn't you just say that the professor told me to wait for you here?" An Jinghong waved the folder in his hand at Tong Qiangqiang: "When the professor read your first draft, I was next to me. I've taken note of all the annotations he made on it, and I can explain it to you. ”

Tong Qiangqiang regained his smile and deliberately bowed respectfully to An Jinghong: "Xiaosheng thanked Senior Brother for this. ”

Professor Zhou listed for her mainly the adjustment of the large framework structure, and in about an hour, Tong Qiangqiang basically understood the problem, and also humbly asked An Jinghong's experience.

"Since we're here, let's have lunch together? It's rare to meet you at school. An Jinghong proposed. Behind the lenses, his gaze that fell on Tong Qiangqiang flashed with light, full of anticipation.

Tong Qiangqiang looked at the time and refused embarrassedly: "I have to go to the company for an internship in the afternoon." I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up. ”

"That's right. An Jinghong was a little disappointed, but he was still not reluctant, and patted Tong Qiangqiang's shoulder with a smile: "Then next time." Don't put it off next time. ”

The company is about half an hour away from the school. This time is usually everyone's lunch break. But when Tong Qiangqiang arrived at the office today, he found that everyone had gathered in the conference room again.

It was still Mai Xiuze who was talking, and the other colleagues were listening intently.

Tong Qiangqiang secretly muttered that since he had a partner, this big boss has been much more motivated than before, and he has come to the company diligently.

Knocked lightly on the door, nodded in greeting, and walked in, she was about to sit in the corner of the last row where she usually sits, but found that there was already someone sitting on the chair - Han Lie's long legs were folded arbitrarily, his wrists were gently supporting his head, and his eyes were closed.

Tong Qiangqiang wondered if he was sleeping or pretending to sleep, and crept down beside him.

As soon as her buttocks touched the surface of the chair, Han Lie opened her eyes coldly, her eyes were black, and she was looking at her.
