Chapter 405: Trouble
Nan Zhiyi was stunned, recalled what happened before, and finally realized what Ling Li was awkward.
He was a little helpless, so he had to get out of the cab, go around the front of the car and take Ling Li's hand, and softened his voice: "I know what you're angry about, I promise that there won't be another one in the future." You know, the situation is so special today that I can't push her away in that situation. ”
As he spoke, he reached out and took her into his arms: "Okay, little pink girl, don't be angry." ”
Ling Li still didn't look at him, only felt that he couldn't vent his sullen breath, but he was still obediently pulled into his arms and snuggled up to his chest.
However, it wasn't until she got so close that she could smell a hint of perfume on Nan Zhiyi's body.
She frowned, pushed him away, and said, "You smell of gardenias, I hate the smell." ”
Nan Zhiyi was confused, grabbed his shirt and sniffed it, but he didn't feel anything unusual.
Ling Li lowered her eyes, her eyelashes flashed slightly: "Yes, you can't smell it yourself, it's the smell of Tao Xing." I don't want to smell it, I hate gardenias, I get dizzy when I smell them. ”
Nan Zhiyi's face was slightly gloomy: "Ling Li, don't you make trouble unreasonably, okay?" ”
She suddenly felt a little aggrieved: "I just don't like the taste of gardenias, is it unreasonable?" ”
Nan Zhiyi's voice suddenly rose: "Don't you always hold on to these small details?" Didn't you see that I tried my best not to let her know that it was you who didn't answer the phone, so the treatment was delayed? Can't you see who I'm good for? ”
"I won't let you take it, so what? If only you told her, I don't care what she thinks of me. ”
Being yelled at by him, Ling Li's head was dazed, and he yelled back the true thoughts in his heart in an instant.
Nan Zhiyi was stunned, and sighed for a while: "I just want you to live in peace, and I don't want you to be gossiped about behind others' backs." ”
Ling Li shook her head stubbornly: "I don't care, it's my fault that I bear it myself, I don't need you to hold her to atone for me." Don't you know what she thinks of you? Isn't it obvious enough that the first thing to do when attacked is to find you instead of calling 110? ”
Saying that, she didn't know where the resentment came from, so she clicked on the recording of Tao Xing that she had saved in her mobile phone and put it to Nan Zhiyi.
After listening to the audio for less than a minute, he was silent for a long time.
Ling Li stood in place, waiting for his reaction.
After a while, Nan Zhiyi let out a long sigh, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Okay, let's not mention this matter again, Tao Xing encountered this accident this time, and she can no longer be stimulated, let it pass if she was right or wrong before, you believe me, I can handle this matter." ”
Ling Li bit her lip lightly: "Can it be so easy to pass?" You know she likes you, and you promise to come and see her every day? Have you ever thought about my feelings? ”
Nan Zhiyi seemed to be a little surprised, and then lowered his eyes, with a cloudy and uncertain look on his face.
After a while, he said in a calm voice: "Tao Xing is my student, she is like this, I can't ignore her." Moreover, she was injured in the school laboratory, and it is my responsibility to ensure that she recovers as soon as possible and continues her studies.
However, since you said you wouldn't let me come to the hospital, I wouldn't come, I would have other students come instead of me, or come with you every time I came to the hospital. However, hanging up the phone is always something we owe to Taoxing, and I will try my best to make up for her in other ways, and strive to make her graduate smoothly, and when the project bonus comes down, she will also be the one who gets the most points. If you deal with it this way, you're okay, right? ”
His unusually calm handling of business made Ling Li very uncomfortable, and his heart hurt faintly like a fish thorn.
However, she couldn't find fault with Nan Zhiyi, so she had to answer sullenly: "No opinion." ”
Seeing that Ling Li agreed on the surface, but in fact she looked stubborn from her hair to her toes, Nan Zhiyi sighed slightly, with a tired look in her eyes, but she didn't say anything more.
After this not-so-pleasant conversation, the awkward and silent atmosphere between the two continued on the way home.
Ling Li couldn't stand the oppressive atmosphere after all, and insisted on getting out of the car when it passed through the city center and going back to the law firm to deal with some official business. Nan Zhiyi couldn't resist her, and finally let her get out of the car.
However, as soon as she got out of the car, Ling Li looked at the car that had gone away and felt aggrieved in her heart.
She is jealous, unwilling and aggrieved, can't he see it? Or is it that Tao Xing's weight in his heart is heavier than she imagined, and she seems to have once again overestimated her position in Nan Zhiyi's heart.
Ling Li shook her head, hurriedly reined in her bad mood, and saw that it was still early, so she simply went back to the office and did some litigation matters that had been delayed in the past few days.
When I arrived at the Chengda Office, as expected, Zhu Jinchuan was not there.
When Lu Xiaoxiao saw Ling Li, she caught up in a few steps, held her belly, which had been six months old, and asked her, "Why are you here?" I thought ......"
She stopped halfway through speaking, and her face was full of expressions of wanting to speak and stopping - as the family of the head of the criminal police, the vicious incident that happened at Funan University was still related to Ling Li, and the well-informed Lu Xiaoxiao had already known about it, and had already called her to express her condolences.
Ling Li and her briefly exchanged glances, and didn't say anything, she entered the cubicle room, put her things away, and was in a daze.
Lu Xiaoxiao followed and paced over and touched her shoulder: "I heard that the student is out of danger, won't you still blame yourself?" ”
Ling Li shook her head slightly, exhaled, and focused her gaze on the desktop computer, unable to take her eyes off for a long time.
Lu Xiaoxiao's eyes rolled, and she began to persuade her: "It's not that you want to rape her, you want to stab her, and besides, normal people are in danger and look for the police, why is she looking for a teacher?" At two o'clock in the morning, the phone call of a female student, who knows how to avoid suspicion, would she not think of this? So, she did it all by herself, and it's none of your business. ”
Ling Li hung her head and couldn't help sighing: "If only you thought like this." ”
Seeing her depressed expression, Lu Xiaoxiao asked tentatively: "You guys, you won't quarrel about this, right?" ”
"It's better to quarrel, but the problem is that you can't argue." Ling Li sighed again, "He thinks that he is helping me by hiding that I hung up the phone, and he is generous, but I don't want him to hide it, I would rather Tao Xing have a big fight with me after knowing about it, and I don't want him to think that it is for my good." ”
As she spoke, she suddenly couldn't help it, hugged Lu Xiaoxiao's waist, put her face on her belly, and said, "How nice it would be if she could become a little baby?" It's simple, cry when you want to cry, laugh if you want to laugh, unlike now, I can only hold back if I don't accept it. ”
Lu Xiaoxiao was helpless, so she had to sigh slightly, clasped her hand on the top of her head, and comforted her softly: "If you are old-fashioned, it is easy to fall in love and difficult to get along, every couple has to pass this level, come on." In addition, remember my words, although you can't hurt the feelings of two people for this, but you can't wronged yourself to be an angry bag, understand? ”
Lu Xiaoxiao's words could not let Ling Li go, and for several days, she was still indulging in the frustration of failing to communicate with Nan Zhiyi and not being able to reach an agreement on Taoxing's matter.
And Nan Zhiyi did not break his promise - he did not go to the hospital again, but only sent students such as Lu Peng to check on the situation every day.
He is also very busy these days, project completion, student graduation, large-scale seminars, high-end forums, and he goes home after 11 o'clock in a week.
Ling Li deliberately stayed back in the guest room she had stayed in, and would lock the door as soon as she heard him open the door.
Every time Nan Zhiyi knocked on the door, she said that she was asleep and didn't want to see him.
It's just that there is a late night snack for him every day in the kitchen, and most of the time it is his favorite soup.
As the days went on, Ling Li was annoyed at first about his handling of the Taoxing incident, but after a few more days, she became even more annoyed that this person only knocked on the door once a night - maybe a few more times, and she opened the door.
A few days later, when she found out that the flowering period of the dove tree he had promised her to see had passed, her anger and resentment were almost at their highest.
Nan Zhiyi was unaware of the previous agreement, and still went to school to work overtime that day.
Ling Li lay on the bed, listening to the sound of the door closing when he left, and was so angry that she was so aggrieved that she burst into tears.
She was so angry that Nan Zhiyi wanted to look good, so she decided not to bear it anymore, and got up from the bed and began to pack up her things, leaving him to fend for himself.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned out all her clothes, the pager at the door rang.
Ling Li picked up the communicator that connected the door downstairs, and after a few words, she found that it was Lu Jinran who came to the door again.
She was a little at a loss, and she was a little weak-hearted Lu Jinran would find that she and Nan Zhiyi were in a cold war, and she was even more afraid that Lu Jinran would find out that she wanted to run away from home, so she packed up in a panic, and Lu Jinran had already gone upstairs.
However, Lu Jinran's attention was obviously not on Ling Li's mood and the unusually messy house, she happily pulled Ling Li and showed Ling Li the gold jewelry style fed back by the gold shop in her hometown.
She talked excitedly for a while, and suddenly found that Ling Li was absent-minded and had a sad face, and she didn't have the joy of a bride at all, so she was a little strange.
"What's wrong?" She asked, "Don't you really like gold jewelry?" But that's the custom over there, so let's just leave it at that. ”
Ling Li hurriedly patted his face, bothered his spirits, and focused his attention on the golden booklet in Lu Jinran's hand, and chose a few styles of bracelets and rings.
Lu Jinran still felt strange - the styles Ling Li chose were basically the first ones she would eliminate, and the only pair of dragon and phoenix bracelets with a good style was particularly complicated.
She was a little worried: "I don't know if this dragon and phoenix bracelet is in time to catch up, my hometown says that it is best to get married in June, and there are only three months left, so I will ask the gold store to speak." ”
Ling Li was stunned: "Get married in June?" What's going on? ”
"Zhijun entrusted the gentleman of his hometown to help you look at the days, saying that your eight characters, you will get married on the 18th day of June in the lunar calendar this year, and if you miss this date, you will have to wait for next year."
Hearing her talk about the wedding period, Ling Li sighed, and finally couldn't help complaining: "What else is married, I won't see him for a week." ”
