Chapter 16: Don't Worry About the Food in My Bowl
The sky was gloomy, the streets at noon were not as congested as in the morning, Ling Zixuan, who was sitting in the car, looked out the window from time to time, and when he arrived at the intersection, the red light was on, and a car was parked next to it, the men and women in the car couldn't bear to waste fifty seconds waiting for the lights in vain, and kissed each other affectionately, people often say that it is difficult to buy an inch of time, and it has been fully interpreted here, Ling Zixuan couldn't help laughing, it turned out that he could also have such a happy mood on the way to school, and he really had enough blood to think of the plot in the morning.
Just when Ling Zixuan and the bodyguards were in a stalemate, the old lady Ling came in, gave an order to drive away the bodyguards who surrounded Ling Zixuan, and after everyone sat down, she politely and firmly informed everyone that the master instructed the Ling family not to have a wedding for three years, otherwise the family would fall into the middle of the road. Mother Jiang Muqing's power has increased greatly in the four years that her mother-in-law has been at home, but she has to be afraid of Mo Yinglong, who was brought by Mrs. Ling to support the field, the former provincial cadre has just retired, and Yu Wei is still there, and his network is enough to make the Jiang family and the Song family jealous. After weighing it again and again, Jiang Muqing chose to remain silent, and the Song family retreated in a gloomy manner. Ling Zixuan was overjoyed and forgot his resentment towards Mrs. Ling for a while, and rushed forward to hug the old lady and kiss her, Mrs. Ling was so excited that she burst into tears, Ling Zixuan noticed that she was out of shape, and quickly left the scene under the pretext of going to school.
When the school arrived, Ling Zixuan took off his school uniform jacket after getting out of the car, and wrapped a beautifully packaged cake in the school uniform, which he deliberately asked the driver to stop on the road, and then personally went to the store to pick out a gift for half a day to give to Lin Xiaoxian. There was no way, Ling Zixuan felt that Lin Xiaoxian was too useful, as soon as he thought of her two big fluttering eyes and pink face, Ling Zixuan couldn't hold back the urge to pinch her face with both hands, and suddenly felt that he was not normal, and couldn't help but secretly purse his lips and smile.
It was now the lunch break, Ling Zixuan walked into the classroom under everyone's attention, looked at his seat, and the good mood just now flew away instantly, the squad leader named Cui Liang was sitting in his place, next to his little tablemate, and the two heads were about to touch together.
Since the last time Lin Xiaoxian was left at the gate of H, as a squad leader with a strong sense of responsibility, Cui Liang has been obsessed, but it turns out that Lin Xiaoxian is a very magnanimous girl, she didn't point her nose at him and scolded him in person, she didn't scold Huai and scold him in the bend, she didn't scold him secretly without slandering him in the back, in short, she didn't scold him, which made Cui Liang grateful.
Cui Liang and Lin Xiaoxian talked about the topic, so they digressed and started chatting, chatting and chatting and finding out that they had actually stayed in the same junior high school, but later Lin Xiaoxian transferred to another school, so they had a heated discussion on the ** make-up class system in junior high school that year, and the more the two chatted, the more speculative they became, and they had the feeling of meeting very late.
Cui Liang couldn't help but laugh when he heard Lin Xiaoxian say the interesting story of their junior high school principal, suddenly, he felt that the surroundings were so quiet, and when he looked up, the classmates sitting in the front row all looked back at him, he subconsciously looked back, only to see Ling Zixuan standing behind him coldly like a plague god.
Lin Xiaoxian was talking about Xingtou, Cui Liang suddenly stood up and startled her, crossed Cui Liang, and unexpectedly saw Ling Zixuan with a stinky face.
"Hey, you're here." Lin Xiaoxian took the initiative to say hello, not knowing what the outcome of his matter was.
Ling Zixuan didn't answer, and Cui Liang hurriedly left the place and fled back to his seat.
"Aren't you going to sit?" Lin Xiaoxian thought about it, and knew that things were not good when he looked at his stool face.
"Rub." Ling Zixuan felt that he had underestimated Lin Xiaoxian, how quickly the newcomer in this seat replaced the old one.
Lin Xiaoxian hurriedly took out a tissue and wiped his table and chair.
After Ling Zixuan sat down, he swept around with a lethal electric eye, and the people around him hurriedly avoided his sight and went their own way.
"Here you go." Ling Zixuan handed the small cake from under the table to Lin Xiaoxian, but his face was expressionless.
"This is ......" Lin Xiaoxian was a little flattered.
"You helped me." Ling Zixuan's expression was a little complicated, and it was difficult to say thank you.
"Well, your grandma is home." Lin Xiaoxian asked in a low voice.
"Hmm."
"That's good, then I'll take it." Lin Xiaoxian has no intention of inquiring into his family affairs, it would be good if she could help, she secretly received the little cake into the desk, and she must not let those gossips see it, otherwise the gossip news in the toilet will fly all over the sky tomorrow.
Watching Lin Xiaoxian accept the gift he carefully selected, Ling Zixuan had a strange feeling in his heart, very special and happy, looking at her like a thief and feeling funny, waiting for Lin Xiaoxian to clean up and open the book casually, Ling Zixuan also took out a book and spread it out in front of him, and then coldly held Lin Xiaoxian's small hand at his side.
Lin Xiaoxian was startled and hurriedly broke free, Ling Zixuan held it tighter, but the person was expressionless, and the other hand flipped through the book as usual, Lin Xiaoxian didn't dare to move too much, for fear that others would see the two hands pulled between the two.
"What are you doing?" Lin Xiaoxian asked in a low voice.
"Thank you, I think that gift is shabby." Ling Zixuan also replied in a low voice.
"You let me eat your cake just to eat my tofu." Lin Xiaoxian understood.
"No, I'm letting you eat my cake and my tofu." Ling Zixuan chuckled.
"Let go, the back seat will be back in a moment." Lin Xiaoxian's face turned red.
"It's a rare opportunity, it's a pity to miss it."
"......" Lin Xiaoxian felt that communicating with him was useless, gave up struggling, took out a compass from the pencil case with his empty left hand, and took the pointed end to Ling Zixuan's eyes and shook it.
Then, Ling Zixuan's playful handle loosened.
Then, Lin Xiaoxian, who was forced to eat small tofu by Ling Zixuan, decided to adopt a zero-communication communication method for him.
As soon as the bell rang for the end of the last class, Shi Huan ran to the seat in front of Lin Xiaoxian, pulled the people inside out, sat down by himself, and pulled a bitter gourd face, Ling Zixuan wanted to talk to Lin Xiaoxian again, but when he saw Shi Huan coming, he didn't want to leave.
"I also want to see Tian Tian, you and Yingying take me there." He Tiantian had acute appendicitis and was sent to the hospital in the morning for a minor operation that needed to be recuperated for a few days, and Shi Huan was very worried.
"Please, you don't know Tian Tian's mother, didn't you go to make trouble for Tian Tian?" Love is so great that it can make people stupid, Lin Xiaoxian shook her head while cleaning up.
"But I'm not too worried." Shi Huan hung his head.
"Big brother, why are you more like a resentful woman than me." Zhou Yunying came over with a schoolbag and said weakly.
"I'll go," Shi Huan glanced up at Zhou Yunying, startled, "Isn't the school not allowed to wear makeup, you still dare to paint such a thick smoky makeup." ”
"Are you amblyopia or mentally retarded, I have dark circles under my eyes that I have learned." After Huang Xiwen declared sovereignty, he pulled Zhou Yunying to her house to study that night, and provided free food, drink, and take-out transfers.
"The prodigal girl does not change her money, which is worthy of praise." Lin Xiaoxian agreed, Zhou Yunying's results are really bad.
"Eldest sister, the key is that I haven't wasted it." Zhou Yunying wailed.
"The question of whether to wave or not will be studied later, and my problem should be studied now." Shi Huan heard that they were going off topic again, and hurriedly pulled the topic back.
"You went, what do you say?" Lin Xiaoxian was very embarrassed.
"Otherwise, let's just say that you two are that kind of good friends, what else can Tian Tian's mother say?" Make up nonsense, Zhou Yunying is in the line.
"Why don't you say you two are?" Lin Xiaoxian protested, and Ling Zixuan next to him was also very displeased.
"Look at me now." Zhou Yunying pointed to her dark circles, "It's more like saying that I went to register to see a doctor." ”
"Xiao Xian'er, raising soldiers for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, brother, I am usually good to you, think about it." Shi Huan grabbed Lin Xiaoxian's hand and looked at the savior in front of him excitedly.
Suddenly, Shi Huan felt a cold gaze staring at his hand, and when he looked at it, he met Ling Zixuan's gloomy face, Shi Huan subconsciously quickly let go of his hand, and even Zhou Yunying was startled by this strange interaction.
Lin Xiaoxian saw Shi Huan pleading bitterly, shook his head and said, "It's okay for me to help you, but you say that Tian Tian is beautiful or I am beautiful, if I am not satisfied with the answer, I will turn my face." ”
Shi Huan had no choice but to ask for help, so he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth, "Of course you are beautiful, the answer is satisfactory." ”
Lin Xiaoxian smiled proudly, "This palace is very satisfied." ”
"It's just a little lacking." Shi Huan added again, got up under Ling Zixuan's cool gaze and packed up his things back to his seat.
"Oh, believe it or not, this palace ......" Lin Xiaoxian was just about to bare her teeth, and Zhou Yunying on the side shook her head helplessly: "Lin Xiaoxian, you are quite lacking in heart." ”
Shi Huan followed Lin Xiaoxian and Zhou Yunying to the hospital to visit He Tiantian, the three of them also bought some fruit on the way, and when they arrived at the ward, they saw He Tiantian lying on the bed sickly, and He Tiantian's mother Jiang Li was sitting next to her and fiddling with her mobile phone.
"Hello Auntie." The three of them greeted Jiang Li first.
"You're here." Jiang Li barely squeezed out a smile, the friends her daughter made were too low-grade, and the fruit she was carrying was really shabby.
"Let's take a look at Tian Tian and give her today's class notes by the way." Zhou Yunying has done business at a young age, and she knows it when she looks at Jiang Li's slightly frowning brows.
"Yes, yes, you work hard every day, send her the notes." Jiang Li was immediately enthusiastic.
"Yo, you're here too." This Shi Huan also came, Jiang Li muttered a little in her heart, shouldn't there be something with Tian Tian? That's not going to work.
"You're pretty good to our family, isn't this time of year the busiest time in your store?" She knew that Shi Huan's parents had opened a small steamed bun shop on the street in front of her house.
"Well, the street light near our house is broken, and he is afraid that I will walk at night." When Lin Xiaoxian heard Jiang Li's tone, she became yin and yang, and hurriedly came over to relieve the siege, and deliberately tugged Shi Huan's arm.
"That's right, it's good, how are you studying?" Jiang Li was relieved to see that these two people actually made small moves.
"Average." "Not so good." "Make do with it." As she expected, the three of them answered basically the same.
"You have to study hard and strive to be admitted to university, among the few of you, Shi Huan's family has a deal, and the rest can't be examined, why are you going?" Jiang Li seemed to be serious.
"Tian Tian, you can rest for twenty minutes, talk to friends, we live in a high-end ward, don't worry about disturbing others, I'll go out for a while." Jiang Li's meaning: Twenty minutes later, you should leave quickly.
After several people waited for Jiang Li to go out, they gently closed the door, and they all breathed a sigh of relief, and looked back at He Tiantian, who had been silent, only to find that there was an English book on her lap.
"You're still reading like this." Shi Huan's eyes were a little red, although Jiang Li's mocking tone just now made him feel uncomfortable, but he was really distressed to see He Tiantian lying on the hospital bed and still reading a book.
"Your own mother is more ruthless than my stepmother." Zhou Yunying has been very tired by Huang Xiwen in the past few days, but compared with He Tiantian's situation, she is quite good.
"My mother said that her body was sick, but her brain did not delay her memory." He Tiantian smiled bitterly, and suddenly his eyes turned red, "I'm sorry, her words just now were hard to hear." ”
He Tiantian was afraid of such a scene, especially in front of Shi Huan, his mother's ridicule was like a needle, piercing others and hurting her at the same time.
Shi Huan stepped forward, gently hugged He Tiantian's head to his chest, and stroked her hair, "I, even if I am injured for a while, but you are so unhappy every day, who will tell you sorry." ”
Lin Xiaoxian and Zhou Yunying had a tacit understanding and turned their backs and leaned on the door, hoping that they would immediately become gaseous and volatilize.
At half past six in the evening, Jiang Muqing closed the last sales report and rubbed her eyes gently, she knew that she was not a talented person, but she had put in more effort than others, even if she was born as a daughter, she had never relaxed herself mentally, she had been used to this kind of life for so many years, only in the continuous expansion of the business territory of the Ling family and the Jiang family, she could find herself, and in recent years, the simultaneous operation of several major projects she advocated had led to the Jiang family's poor capital turnover, and the old lady Ling now suddenly appeared to resist the marriage, The problem in front of her now is really difficult to solve.
Why did Old Lady Ling suddenly appear? Jiang Muqing had been thinking about this question since he came out of the Ling family in a hurry in the morning, what went wrong.
"Secretary Zheng, come in." Jiang Muqing pressed the secretary's phone button.
After a while, a polite knock on the door sounded, and a middle-aged man came in, with gold-rimmed eyes, this person was Zheng Yingzhi, Jiang Muqing's think tank, Jiang Muqing galloped through the shopping mall, Wu has Fu Haotian, and Wen has Zheng Yingzhi.
"I'm sorry to let you work overtime again, sit." Jiang Muqing smiled politely.
"You're not paying me overtime." Zheng Yingzhi sat opposite.
"I want you to check something for me." Jiang Muqing leaned back in the chair.
Lin Xiaoxian, who was walking on the way home, suddenly sneezed and said to herself: Is anyone talking about me......
