Chapter 673: You're a Smart Woman
The afternoon sun was golden and jumped on the tips of the leaves, the wind blew, the leaves trembled and swayed, Li Qiao and Qian Xiaomo stood under the treesββ?? Bayi Chinese Network?? w?w?w?οΌ? 81zw.com the rich shade of the trees above the head seems to smell of midsummer, making people forget the cold of winter. This feeling is just like what Li Qiao has always felt in Qian Xiaomo's heart.
"You don't have to worry too much about Qian Xiaoxiang's condition, experts from the United States will arrive at the sanatorium today."
Li Qiao stared at the golden light on Qian Xiaomo's face, and smiled lightly to help her open her mouth first.
Qian Xiaomo pursed the corners of her lips, stared at her hands clasped in her abdomen with her eyelids slightly lowered, and said slowly: "Actually, what I want to talk about is last night......
Li Qiao's eyes rolled slightly, and he remembered the sincere words blurted out last night.
- "I love her! I'm not hooking up, I'm in love with Mob! β
Was she trying to give him an answer?
Li Qiao thought about it, the more gentle the expression on his face, the wind blew through the shattered forehead in front of him, setting off a layer of golden light.
Qian Xiaomo raised her eyes and met Li Qiao's meaningful gaze, but there was not even a trace of turmoil in her heart. She looked at him quietly, just at him like this, without any emotion in her eyes, as if she was just looking at a stranger she had met for the first time. Such a look made Li Qiao's heart tighten.
"Last night, because of me, something unpleasant happened, and it hurt you, I'm sorry."
With such an opening statement, Li Qiao had already foreseen that something he was afraid of but would happen sooner or later had finally come to life.
"At the same time, I am also very grateful to Dean Li...... In order to defend me, Dean Li even did not hesitate to fight with Lei Ming, and deliberately said that you love me to provoke him. I know that this qiΔ is all Dean Li's way to protect me, so I ......" Qian Xiaomo paused slightly and blinked her thick eyelashes, "I thank Dean Li very much, sincerely." β
The smile in Li Qiao's eyes gradually dissipated, and his sincere words were just for her expediency in Qian Xiaomo's ears?
His heart was squeezed coldly, as if someone was going to take it away.
Yes, did he really think that Qian Xiaomo would accept his sincere words as sincerely?
The corners of Li Qiao's slightly raised lips lost their upward arc, and under the slightly trembling eyelashes, the pair of deep eyes were dim.
He tried his best to stabilize the shock in his heart, since this qiΔ was not true to Qian Xiaomo, he couldn't let Qian Xiaomo see that this was indeed true. Otherwise, the current suddenly cold atmosphere will only become more awkward. Perhaps, even the most humble friendship relationship, Li Qiao will lose. Romance debuts
In any case, the fact is that Qian Xiaomo rejected him.
"Dean Li......" Qian Xiaomo said softly, "You know I'm stupid, yesterday's scene, if it wasn't for Dean Li to help me, I don't know what to do at all." And this kind of thing, I shouldn't have dragged you into the water in the first place. Therefore, I know that it is not enough for me to just say thank you, as long as Dean Li does not dislike me for being stupid and does not think that I am Gao Pan, I want to be good friends with Dean Li, is that okay? β
Li Qiaoqing smiled lightly, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and his eyes were soft, "You are not stupid at all, Xiaomo, you are very smart." β
was so clever that he rejected him so easily that he didn't dare to go any further.
Li Qiao smiled bitterly in his heart, but the expression on his face did not change in the slightest.
"If I were really smart, I wouldn't need Dean Li to help me in that situation yesterday."
The more depressed Li Qiao's heart became, Qian Xiaomo's words were more lethal than her words.
If she had shown her heart earlier, would that kind of thing not happen yesterday at all?
Because Qian Xiaomo won't give him this kind of opportunity at all?
Li Qiao shook his head, Qian Xiaomo was not so stupid at all.
"You're not stupid, really, you're just more simple, kind, and ...... than any girl More worthy of being loved. β
The wind blew, setting off a dark green wave, and the waves were golden spots of sunshine.
Li Qiao and Qian Xiaomo stood under the tree, the fallen leaves falling on the tips of his black leather shoes, but the wind blew the length of her hanging waist.
He said no more, she reached out and pinned the chaos behind her ear, and the sound of birdsong from time to time passed briskly.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
In the evening, Lei Ming came to pick up Qian Xiaomo from work and returned to the moon villa as scheduled.
Along the way, Lei Ming was silent.
Qian Xiaomo was talking about Qian Xiaoxiang's situation alone, more like talking to herself.
ββ¦β¦ Experts in the United States retook a blood sample from her sister and did not know what the results would be...... I don't understand what they're saying, just looking at their faces, I think my sister's situation is really not optimistic...... Dean Li ...... "At the beginning of the conversation, it was mentioned that Li Qiao was Qian Xiaomo's unintentional, but she didn't dare to say any more, for fear that Lei Ming would be angry, she quickly glanced at Lei Ming secretly.
Lei Ming drove the car intently, and Qian Xiaomo didn't know if he was listening to him.
Seeing that Lei Ming didn't seem to pay attention to his appearance, Qian Xiaomo gradually became bold and looked at him carefully.
Although it was night, Lei Ming's face was so pale that it was shocking and frightening. The frowning brows seemed to be locked in an untiring mess, and Qian Xiaomo was about to forget that he didn't frown. There was also unspeakable boredom and distress hidden in his deep eyes, Qian Xiaomo wanted to ask him if something was wrong every time, but most of the time he was frightened back by Lei Ming's cold and stern expression.
That full lips are more seductive than a woman's, and there will always be a desire to kiss him. But Lei Ming always pursed his lips tightly, straighter and denser than a slit, as if he had been sewn up with a needle and thread. Qian Xiaomo looked at him secretly, wanting to smooth his brows and want the corners of his mouth to rise, but she didn't know what she should do.
Even if he made up his mind to pursue him again, Qian Xiaomo did not take real action.
She was afraid that she would be hated and backfired, so she was cautious and cautious, and the more she made herself feel very uncomfortable.
Qian Xiaomo withdrew her gaze, lowered her eyelids, and didn't say anything more.
Anyway, he wasn't listening.
After being silent all the way for a long time, Lei Ming had already driven back to the city, and there were few cars and fewer people on the streets.
He slowly stepped on the brakes, waiting for the red light, and glanced at Qian Xiaomo, wondering why she had been silent for so long.
Qian Xiaomo lowered her head, and Lei Ming couldn't see the expression on her face clearly.
He pursed his lips, Qian Xiaomo mentioned Li Qiao before, is he thinking about that guy now?
Lei Ming despised Li Qiao in his heart, holding the steering wheel with his right hand, resting his left elbow on the car window, and muttering, "I have already done what I promised you before." β
Qian Xiaomo suddenly raised her head and looked at Lei Ming in surprise, as if it was an incredible thing for him to talk to her.
"When are you resting?"
"I ...... I'll look at the schedule......" Qian Xiaomo hurriedly flipped through the notepad in his backpack, "Rest tomorrow." β
"Well, just tomorrow."
The voice landed, the red light turned green, and the silver sports car roared away with a roar.
Before Qian Xiaomo came to her senses, they had already arrived at the Moon Villa.
As every day, Li Bin has already slept.
Qian Xiaomo deliberately walked upstairs with light steps, Lei Ming walked in front of her and walked straight to the study.
Qian Xiaomo stopped in a daze, looking at Lei Ming's back, she was so distressed that she almost blurted out, but swallowed it back on the tip of her tongue. It's so late, does Lei Ming still have to stay up late and work overtime? Qian Xiaomo's hand clasped the guardrail of the staircase, and Lei Ming's haggard and tired appearance in the car just now resurfaced in her mind.
It's already like this, Lei Ming still refuses to take a good rest?
Before Qian Xiaomo left, Lei Ming suddenly walked out of the study and walked towards Qian Xiaomo.
Her heart was beating wildly, and Lei Ming was getting closer and closer, and her heart was beating faster and faster.
Qian Xiaomo pondered what to say, and his subordinates tightened the guardrail of the staircase.
Seeing Lei Ming standing in front of him, Qian Xiaomo was full of joy and just spoke, the word "thunder" had just been pronounced, and Lei Ming had already passed her shoulder as if Qian Xiaomo was completely gone. A gust of cold wind hit Qian Xiaomo's face, she couldn't help but tremble, she was so cold that she shivered, and her brain was instantly sober.
She turned to look at Lei Ming's back on the stairs, it was so cold as a knife, Qian Xiaomo seemed to have fallen into the ice pool.
Lei Ming strode to the kitchen and opened the door of the refrigerator, the orange warm light shone on his face, and a cold air from the refrigerator poured out. Lei Ming fumbled in the refrigerator for a while, and closed the door without taking anything. I rummaged through the cupboard in the kitchen again, but still didn't find anything.
Lei Ming turned around and walked to the next room, took a bottle of brandy from the wine shelf, and just went out to see Qian Xiaomo standing outside the door.
"The coffee is gone, remember to buy it." After speaking, Lei Ming wiped Qian Xiaomo's shoulder.
"I threw away the melted coffee in the refrigerator, and I also threw away the coffee beans in the cupboard." Qian Xiaomo replied simply, turned to look at Lei Ming, and snatched the brandy from him, half distressed and half worried, "Rest early, it hurts your body to go on like this." β
Lei Ming looked at the empty hand, pursed his lips, glared at Qian Xiaomo, and only left the next sentence "Don't worry about it", he snatched back the brandy bottle and strode away. Qian Xiaomo looked at his back and didn't catch up this time.
You don't care.
It's the same sentence again.
Qian Xiaomo snorted coldly, her heart was so cold that she was already numb to the point of being unconscious.
In the gloomy darkness of the corridor, she was lonely and motionless, the moonlight shining faintly through the window in front of her feet, but a silver glow, without the slightest warmth or meaning. For Lei Ming, she may be such a person.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
The next day, Qian Xiaomo woke up from her sleep and sat up.
For days on end, she almost always woke up from nightmares.
Qian Xiaomo glanced at the time before she breathed a sigh of relief, turned over and got out of bed to freshen up before going downstairs to prepare breakfast for Lei Ming and Li Bin.
As usual, breakfast had just been prepared, and they went downstairs before and after.
Lei Ming sat down on the main seat, his eyes were bloodshot, his face was thin, and he looked like he had stayed up all night.
Qian Xiaomo added protein powder to the milk, supplemented the nutrients, handed it to Lei Ming, and he took it and drank it.
"What you promised me before......" Qian Xiaomo stood beside Lei Ming and opened her mouth tentatively, "When are we going?" β
"Finish breakfast."
"You...... Don't need a break? β
"No, you don't."
Lei Ming answered categorically, Qian Xiaomo knew that he couldn't change his mind, so he could only sit down, holding the bread in his hand but not eating a bite, but looked at Li Bin, "I prepared a set of clothes for you before, today, let's go out together." β
Li Bin was eating a sandwich, and when he heard Qian Xiaomo say this, he looked at Lei Ming with round eyes.
"We ...... Where are you going? β
Li Bin asked, and Qian Xiaomo also looked at Lei Ming.
Lei Ming gracefully cut the fried egg on the plate and muttered, "You'll know when the time comes." β
