Li Shunxi felt the bluntness of Guo Haodong's tone from the phone, and even a little impatient, he was stunned, and then said, "Please rest assured." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info I promise to rush to the hospital at noon today. ”

Guo Haodong stimulated his nameless fire because of the contradictions in his heart, and his attitude towards Li Shunxi on the phone was such a manifestation. He also didn't know why his temper had become so irritable.

When he hung up the phone, he talked to a supervisor of the company on the phone and briefly explained the company's affairs. He can't go to work today, at least he can't leave the hospital until Li Shunxi returns.

However, he looked disdainful of the obscene and greedy Chen Jingyuan at this time, but sat in front of Gui Ling's hospital bed and guarded her who was receiving an infusion.

Gui Ling's body is fine, but her body's prostration and mental exhaustion make her delicate body unable to support it, and she can slowly recover as long as she receives some infusion in the hospital. Guo Haodong continued to look at Gui Ling's sleeping face with pity, and when he thought of how much hardship it took for this girl to carry a big man to the hospital in the middle of the night. Those abrasions on her body were enough to prove how much she fell. Alas, it's all self-blame. Guo Haodong couldn't help but think - he really shouldn't involve Gui Ling.

Did he regret it? Yes, he suddenly felt how stupid it was for him to arrange for Gui Ling to befriend Li Shunxi. Now it seems that the relationship between himself and Nan Nan is still unclear, why should he help Lan Lan relieve the so-called emotional burden? Now let Lan Lan pin all her hopes on herself, isn't it a huge pressure on herself? Is Lan Lan really suitable for herself?

Burst! Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel remorseful and smashed his fist on the head hard.

Gui Ling was in a trance, heard the sound of 'self-harm', couldn't help but open her eyes, and when she found Guo Haodong sitting on the edge of the hospital bed with a chagrined face, she couldn't help but be surprised: "Mr. Guo, what's wrong with you?" ”

Guo Haodong shocked Gui Ling when he saw it, and quickly shook his head: "It's nothing." You can rest in peace. ”

Gui Ling swept the surroundings of the ward with her eyes, and found herself in a single room, and couldn't help but ask, "Why am I here?" ”

Guo Haodong smiled indifferently: "This is what I arranged." You are too tired and need a quiet ward to recuperate. ”

Gui Ling was a little flattered by Guo Haodong's care, and asked uneasily, "Uncle Chen, how are they?" Why don't you take care of them? ”

Guo Haodong had an indifferent attitude: "He can't die, he is in the ward next door with his wife." It is estimated that after a few days of observation, he will be discharged. ”

Gui Ling felt Guo Haodong's disdainful demeanor, and couldn't help but ask, "You seem to be very disgusted with others?" ”

Guo Haodong made no secret of it: "He is really a greedy man, and he even wants to take more free medicine, which is simply unreasonable." It's enough for him to be punished himself, and as a result, you're dragged down as well. ”

Gui Ling hurriedly shook her head: "Mr. Guo, don't worry about me. I'm fine. He was a sick man after all. Please don't worry about him, but still care about him. ”

Guo Haodong listened to Gui Ling's words, and couldn't help but be stunned - Gui Ling's tolerance of Chen's father is probably much stronger than Lan Lan's, and he is even worse.

He was ashamed and uneasy at this time, and couldn't help but say gloomily: "Gui Ling, I really shouldn't have asked you to help them, and it turned out that you would pay so much." ”

Gui Ling also looked uneasy and said, "Don't say that. I'm glad I was able to do what I could for them. They do need help, and Shunxi's dedication is unmatched. ”

Guo Haodong's heart trembled, and he couldn't help asking, "Do you like Xiao Li?" ”

Gui Ling was suddenly asked by Guo Haodong, and a layer of blush appeared on her pale face.

Guo Haodong saw that although the girl did not answer, there was a trace of shyness on her expression, and he understood everything, and couldn't help but sigh gloomily in his heart.

He struggled in his heart for a long time before he mustered up the courage to say: "Gui Ling, you deserve to be best friends with Nan Nan." Your two personalities are almost too similar, both are so simple. But I want to remind you that if you like a man, you must first understand the background of the other person. And this Xiao Li put all his thoughts on Chen Lanlan. You don't want to put your feelings into it. ”

Gui Ling looked at Guo Haodong in amazement: "Mr. Guo, haven't you always encouraged me to care more about him before, and hope that I can give him a backup love?" But now why are you letting me quit? ”

Guo Haodong smiled bitterly: "Alas, I was really whimsical at the time. As a result, you've got bruises all over your body. When I saw you lying on the hospital bed, I felt sorry for Nan Nan now. Now I want you to quit and just maintain a normal colleague relationship with Xiao Li. ”

Gui Ling shook her head: "I'm a little tired, but I don't feel hurt." Besides, I didn't put my feelings on anyone, everything I did was to do my best. As for the emotional aspect, I don't want to put a little pressure on Shunxi, so let him choose for himself. ”

When Guo Haodong heard this, he looked at Gui Ling in astonishment for a long time before he shook his head with a wry smile: "You are really a stupid girl." His mind has always been on Chen Lanlan. Otherwise, would he have paid so much for the Chen family? ”

Gui Ling suddenly stared blankly at the ceiling at this time, pondered for a while, and then whispered: "Mr. Guo, do you believe in fate?" ”

Guo Haodong kept watching her emotional changes, and couldn't help but wonder: "Why do you ask like this, do you already recognize that Xiao Li is yours?" ”

Gui Ling shook her head indifferently: "He doesn't belong to a certain person, only to himself." However, what I want to say now is that who he wants and who he doesn't want is not determined by his current subjective consciousness. Maybe the heavens have already arranged everything. I suddenly had a hunch about him - he should be in love, not wishful thinking. ”

Guo Haodong was a little puzzled, and looked at Gui Ling in amazement for a long time before shaking his head: "Maybe your hunch is wrong." He was actually wishful thinking to be good to Chen Lanlan. Of course, you are also right in saying that who he wants and who he does not want is really not determined by his subjective consciousness. ”

Gui Ling smiled indifferently: "Mr. Guo should know philosophy, right?" Don't forget the saying – things are complex and evolving. What I just said about 'who he is better with is not determined by his current subjective consciousness', but 'present' does not mean 'future'. He is a responsible man who will definitely control his own destiny in the future. ”

When Guo Haodong talked to Gui Ling, his eyes always revealed a trace of surprise, and he felt that he needed to get to know this girl again. Her words were so profound that she could barely comprehend them.

Li Shunxi finally rushed to the city hospital before noon, first visited the ward where Chen Jingyuan and his wife lived, and when he learned that Chen Jingyuan's condition had stabilized, he rushed to Gui Ling's ward next door.

At this time, Gui Ling had just finished the infusion, and when she saw Li Shunxi striding forward, she hurriedly turned over.

"Gui Ling, don't move." Li Shunxi took a few steps and forcibly pressed her shoulder.

Gui Ling looked at the other party's tired face, and couldn't help but say with pity: "I'm fine." You've worked hard, so take a break. ”

Li Shunxi said apologetically: "I'm not working hard, but I've tired you." ”

Gui Ling hurriedly shook her head: "I'm nothing, I didn't take care of Uncle Chen, but I made you run back with hard work." ”

Li Shunxi also stared at Gui Ling with a kind of pity, and said emotionally: "Gui Ling, don't say that. You're actually doing a great job, it couldn't have been better. If it weren't for your hard work to carry Uncle Chen to the hospital, it wouldn't be... It's all my fault...

Before Li Shunxi's words were finished, he suddenly choked up and couldn't continue.

Gui Ling's eyes moistened instantly, and she quickly shook her head: "Don't be sad and blame yourself. Aren't Uncle Chen and I all right? You have to pay attention to rest. ”

Guo Haodong, who was accompanying him next to him, saw that the two of them were so sympathetic to each other, and he felt very uncomfortable, so he said: "You guys talk first, I should go back to the company." ”

Li Shunxi saw that Guo Haodong was leaving, and hurriedly said uneasily: "Mr. Guo, it's all because I didn't make arrangements, so you worked hard." ”

Guo Haodong snorted, and then pointed to Gui Ling who was lying on the hospital bed: "I'm nothing." It's this girl who really works hard. She has great kindness to you and the Chen family. I hope you don't let her down. ”

When Li Shunxi heard this, he couldn't help but look at Gui Ling with gratitude again.

Guo Haodong strode out of the ward and walked outside without looking back, not even saying goodbye to Chen Jingyuan next door.

When he drove away from the hospital, he kept thinking about why he reminded Li Shunxi like that just now, do you still hope that he can choose Gui Ling in the end?

However, he had already realized that Li Shunxi, who was full of Lan Lan in his head, had been moved by Gui Ling. What does this mean for everyone?

Everyone in Guo Haodong's mind, including himself, Nan Nan, Lan Lan, Gui Ling, Li Shunxi, and even the Chen family couple.

At this time, it was already noon, and the company had already left work. He decided to go home again for a lunch break. Of course, he wanted to find a place to fill his stomach before he wanted to go home. In fact, he didn't even eat breakfast.

There are no small restaurants on the street from the hospital to the home. Although he was not a lavish man who talked about pomp, he had to turn around to other streets to find a small restaurant at this time, so he parked his car in front of a relatively large hotel.

However, as soon as he got out of the car, he found a man and a woman walking towards the hotel.

He couldn't help but be stunned - that woman's back looked like his mother!

"Mom-" he subconsciously shouted.

Perhaps his voice is too familiar to some. When the woman heard this, she subconsciously stopped her steps and looked back.

When Guo Haodong looked at her, he couldn't help but be surprised - she was really his mother.

When Li Suqin saw that her son appeared unexpectedly, she immediately whispered a few words to the man next to her, and the man walked into the hotel alone.

Although the man also turned his head just now, Guo Haodong didn't see the person's appearance clearly. He hesitated, but strode towards his mother—

"Haodong, why are you here?" Li Suqin should take a step forward and ask first.

Guo Haodong replied calmly: "It's noon, I'm here to eat." ”

Li Suqin was puzzled: "Do you come to the restaurant alone to eat at noon every day?" ”

Guo Haodong shook his head: "No." I just went to the hospital to see a patient and was about to go home for a lunch break. But I was a little hungry, so I happened to pass by this restaurant and wanted to come in and make up for it. ”

Li Suqin blinked, and couldn't help but use a 'knocking' tone: "Now that Nan Nan is not at home, do you realize what it's like to have no one cooking for you at home?" ”

Guo Haodong smiled bitterly, and then asked, "Why are you back?" ”

Li Suqin reached out and rubbed her dark eye circles, and then asked rhetorically: "I've been busy in the disaster area for several days, shouldn't I come back?" ”

Guo Haodong's heart moved: "Did Nan Nan come back with you?" ”

Li Suqin shook her head: "No." We still have a lot of work to do in the affected areas. I'm going to go back to work from time to time. Nan Nan has been working too hard these days. I would have liked to bring her back with me. But she couldn't let go of the people in need of help in the disaster area, and refused to come back with me. She's such a good girl. ”

Guo Haodong recalled the messages that Nan Nan sent to him, and he couldn't help but have mixed feelings in his heart.

Li Suqin didn't know her son's thoughts, and when she saw him hanging his head and saying nothing, she said, "It's inconvenient for our mother and mother to eat together today. You'd better find another restaurant. ”

When Guo Haodong heard this, he couldn't help but show suspicious eyes: "Mom, who was that man just now?" Now that you're back, why don't you just go home and eat here with him? ”

Li Suqin couldn't help but smile calmly in the face of her son's questioning: "He is my old classmate." I asked him to do something for me. So I invited him to dinner alone at noon today. Don't think about it, let's go. ”

Guo Haodong rolled his eyes, and asked tentatively: "What did you entrust him to do, making it so mysterious?" ”

Li Suqin's pretty face showed a hint of anger, and said undoubtedly: "It's none of your business, don't ask around, don't bother me here." ”

At this time, she stretched out her little hand and pushed her son on the shoulder.

Guo Haodong was still full of troubles at this time, and at this time he felt like he had eaten for a while. But after all, he 'couldn't twist his arms around his thighs', so he had to flash unhappily.

Li Suqin couldn't help but smile when she saw that her son had finally retreated, and then turned around and walked into the hotel.

Guo Haodong got back into the car, and looked back at the hotel through the window glass, and couldn't help but wonder, what did the mysterious man who met his mother do?

He didn't want to go to another restaurant, but drove the car back to the Deyuan community.

He had been guessing the purpose of his mother's meeting with the mysterious man all the way, until this time, he suddenly thought that his mother had rushed back from the Wangliang earthquake-stricken area for that man's sake? Could it be that something big is happening?

His hunch was correct. The reason why Li Suqin returned to Jidong was really to meet that man, and it was indeed for a major matter.

At this time, according to the waiter's instructions, Li Suqin found the man in a private room on the second floor.

The man was already waiting for her quietly, and as soon as she entered, he asked with a smile: "Suqin, you met a man privately, weren't you misunderstood by your son just now?" ”

Li Suqin was obviously very familiar with the man, and they spoke to each other very casually, and immediately turned white at each other's eyes: "You, you're almost half a hundred, and your speech is still not in a proper shape." ”

The man smiled wittily: "We are old classmates, and now we have the opportunity to sit and eat together and reminisce about our youth, which is also gratifying." ”

Li Suqin sat down next to the side of the man's body at this time, and asked seriously, "Have you ordered?" ”

The man smiled and shook his head, "No." Since you are paying for it today, how can I take the lead? ”

Li Suqin smiled: "Since I am here to entertain you, of course it is mainly you." You're welcome. ”

Li Suqin immediately called the waiter, and after the other party ordered the food, she suddenly showed an impatient look: "Changhao, please tell me quickly, what is the result of the investigation?" ”

It turned out that this man was Zhang Changhao, deputy director of the Jidong City Public Security Bureau, who was previously entrusted by Li Suqin to go to the Sucheng Welfare Institute to visit Chen Lanlan's situation. Now, he wants to report back to his client on the investigation.

Li Suqin received a call from Zhang Changhao and felt that the matter was very important, so she made an appointment with Zhang Changhao to meet at this hotel.

Zhang Changhao's expression suddenly became solemn at this time, and he whispered: "Suqin, your hunch is very right, I am afraid that the background of that girl named Chen Lanlan is really related to you." ”

When Li Suqin heard this, her face instantly changed color.
