Chapter 148: Farewell
Hearing such an answer, Zhong Zhuowen glared at her: "You brainless, ready-made trees don't take a good dip in the shade, but you have to stick to your principles and be self-reliant, I despise you!" ”
Ling Li's voice was cold: "I admire you very much, where did you learn these crooked ways at a young age?" Can such an unobtrusive suggestion be made? Let's not talk about any principle issues first, do you know how much impact this kind of thing will have on Mr. Tian and them if it is known? ”
Zhong Zhuowen rolled her eyes: "Isn't this really helpless?" I would like to have the opportunity to go through all kinds of evidence and information collected by the police in an honest manner, but there is no channel. My mother never let me have access to any professors and lawyers, there is no access to information, and besides, is it easy for me as a minor to fight against the state violence organs? ”
Ling Li shook her head, completely disagreeing with her words: "Don't complain, no one is obliged to be considerate of your feelings, and no one needs to be responsible for your life. How your life will be is entirely up to you. Needless to say, no matter how stubbornly you pester, I won't talk to Teacher Tian and Teacher Nan about this matter. ”
Looking at the person in front of him who seemed to be a little slow to react but turned out to be unexpectedly stubborn, Zhong Zhuowen had no choice but to admit defeat, her eyebrows drooped, and she said weakly: "Okay, I know, can you stop preaching?" ”
The two looked at each other without saying a word for a while, Zhong Zhuowen suddenly thought of something, and became even more listless: "Do you know that my father's state compensation has come down?" Five million, it is said that another record has been set. ”
Ling Li paused and nodded silently.
As early as half a month ago, she already knew about this result from Tian Zhengyan's mouth, and as soon as the court ruling came out, it was really boiling in the media. However, she was too busy at the time to pay attention to it.
After Zhong Zhuowen finished saying what she had just said, she fell silent, her eyes were rarely dyed with gloomy, and her depressed aura was completely like a depressed middle-aged man.
Ling Li looked at her strangely for a while, and finally asked, "Isn't this a good thing?" Your mother's years of running around have paid off. ”
She raised her head and glanced at Ling Li, then turned her face and looked out the window: "Even if there is a result, it is not necessarily a good thing." Of the money, my dad insisted on giving you some of it, but my mom didn't agree, and the two of them had been turning their faces on this matter for several days. ”
Ling Li's eyes widened, and in her opinion, she couldn't understand Zhong Chengheng's approach at all: "What does this mean?" Do you feel guilty, or do you feel like I need such alms? What a mess. ”
Zhong Zhuowen hugged her knees and curled up, still complaining: "You can't understand it, right? I don't know what my dad's brain circuitry is. I know that you don't need money to make up for the pain, and it is even more impossible for you to forgive him until the truth of the case is ascertained. My mother and I told him all these things, but he insisted on going his own way and didn't listen. ”
Speaking of this, she stopped and glanced at Ling Li, and let out a long sigh: "My mother is also stubborn, and she has to remarry my father." I don't want to think about it, how can they still be together? Neither of them can let go of the obsession in their hearts, I've been really hard these days, and I'm not as happy as when my dad was locked up. ”
This series of unreasonable things fell down, Ling Li didn't know what words she should use to describe her complicated feelings, nor did she comfort Zhong Zhuowen, and it didn't seem to be suitable for her to put on a gloating attitude, so she had to say sullenly: "Is there a mistake?" ”
Zhong Zhuowen stretched her long legs and collapsed on the sofa: "For the sake of my sincerity just now, for the sake of me being an unhappy family and worrying about two paranoid parents in the family, can you just let me take a shortcut?" Tian Zhengyan and Nan Zhiyi, you just need to sell one person to me. ”
Ling Li was still immersed in lamenting the ill-fated mood, but she was interrupted by Zhong Zhuowen's tricky appearance, and she was almost crazy, and couldn't help but roar in a low voice: "You still have no end!" I said no! ”
Zhong Zhuowen didn't take her appearance of going berserk in her eyes at all, rolled her eyes, and smiled with a little cunning: "Why don't we break our wrists to decide the winner?" If you lose, give me Brother Nan's phone number, and if I lose, I won't bother you about this problem again. ”
Ling Li snorted angrily: "Don't think I can't hear the trap, even if you lose, you just won't bother me today, right?"
Then, she rolled up her sleeves with a rare heroism: "Wrench your wrists, right?" Come on, come on, who's afraid of whom! ”
Five minutes later, Zhong Zhuowen's eyes widened and she looked at her reddened palm, with an incredible expression: "You are thin and small, and you are actually stronger than me?" There is no heavenly reason! ”
Ling Li rolled her eyes and shook her aching hand.
She knew that this little girl would mess around. Sure enough, she won the first time she broke her wrists, but Zhong Zhuowen immediately changed her words and said that she wanted to break three games; When she won the second game, Zhong Zhuowen quibbled that the so-called three games meant a best-of-five game.
After she won three games in a row, Zhong Zhuowen finally realized what it means to be unseemly.
With a thick face and a black heart, this little girl is a hundred times more suitable than she is to be a lawyer.
Ling Li resisted the urge to pick up a broom and drive people away: "The person who broke his wrist and lost, he is about to go home, and he will grind here again, I really have to call the police and ask the police uncle to save the girl who has lost his footing." ”
This villain also had a miscalculation time, thinking that he could beat her in strength by being ten centimeters taller than her, and he didn't look at how she got her nickname back then.
finally sent Zhong Zhuowen, who was still unconvinced and wanted to break her wrists again, to the mouth of the alley, and escorted her into a taxi despite her shameful request.
After that, she silently wrote down the license plate number, and under a golden sunset, she turned around and went home.
When he walked to the corner of the intersection, Ling Li found Nanzhiyi standing under the banyan tree.
I didn't expect to see him at this place at this time, Ling Li was very surprised, and secretly glad that he was ten minutes late, otherwise, if he was touched by Zhong Zhuowen, he didn't know how much trouble he would cause.
She hurriedly stepped forward and whispered, "Teacher Nan, have you come back from the imperial capital?" ”
Nan Zhiyi didn't hear her voice, only stared at the entrance of her house with a thoughtful look.
Ling Li thought that he was missing the flavor of his uncle's shop, and said with some amusement: "My Xiaobao's current treatment is quite smooth, and he may come back in a few months." When the time comes, the restaurant will still open, so you can wait. ”
There seemed to be a hint of strange emotion in his eyes, and under the reflection of the street lamp, he only felt that his eyes that had always been transparent and clear were a little obscure.
Smiling, he said slowly: "I'm going to Qiongzhou tomorrow." ”
Ling Li was stunned for a moment, and immediately agreed: "Oh, then I'll help you walk the dog, and make sure that the room is neat and tidy when you come back." ”
Presumably, Nan Zhiyi is going on a business trip again, and this sudden appearance is probably to entrust Wang Xingren at home and the plan of tidying up the room to her, who is a working girl.
Nan Zhiyi shook his head: "I didn't say this. You don't have to walk the dog, you just need to take care of it. Tao Xing and Lu Peng know that they come over every day to manage rice grains and Guli. ”
Hearing that Tao Xing and Lu Peng were going to trouble Tao Xing and Lu Peng to walk their dogs across most of the city every day, Ling Li hurriedly said: "Don't trouble them, I live close, just leave it to me." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a shadow fall above her head, and then there was a muffled sound and he patted her on the top of her head.
"You're so stupid." Nan Zhiyi withdrew his hand, tilted his head to look at her and laughed: "You still don't understand what I mean?" As a teacher, I can't help them, I can't do anything, and I can create some opportunities for these two children to be together. ”
Ling Li was a little surprised, she didn't expect Frankenstein to have such an empathetic side, and she actually took the initiative to be a moon elder and wanted to match her students.
She nodded and smiled: "Okay, then I won't join in the fun, but, when will you come back?" ”
This question made Nan Zhiyi silent, and his gaze seemed to drift away.
These days, Ling Li has long been accustomed to the appearance that he sometimes suddenly wanders out of the world, and sometimes he talks to you, and his unbridled thinking has jumped into outer space.
She stood still waiting for his answer, lest she interrupt his train of thought.
After a while, he suddenly retracted his gaze and smiled at Ling Li with relief: "The plane tree outside your window, let's find someone to beat the branches, it's too easy for people to climb into the house along the tree." ”
She didn't know why he suddenly remembered this, she didn't know what was going on, but she didn't want to ask further, so she nodded and agreed.
Nan Zhiyi smiled again and said, "Your uncle is not at home, if you can't cook, you will go to Lao Tian's house to eat." ”
Ling Li suddenly had a big head: "No, it doesn't matter if you and him have a relationship foundation, if I come to the door for no reason, he will be angry." ”
Nan Zhiyi scratched the tip of his nose and said softly: "That's right, Lao Tian has a bad temper, now that he wins the case, he won't care about your emotions, maybe he can scold you to suicide on a whim, maybe he can." ”
Ling Li rolled his eyes and was about to reply, but he suddenly raised his hand, patted the top of her head, and then whispered, "Goodbye." ”
was treated as a dog twice in a row to accept a pat on the head, Ling Li was very embarrassed.
During the handling of the case, Nan Zhiyi likes to pat her head like a grain of rice, and come to her at every turn, Ling Li protested more than once, but Nan Zhiyi ignored it at all, relying on the length of her arms and being much taller than Ling Li, and she was very easy to shoot.
Tian Zhengyan, who has always been partial to Ling Li and has a vicious voice towards Nan Zhiyi, actually smiled at his bullying behavior and said nothing.
Ling Li moved her lips, and after all, she didn't protest again about his shameless behavior. Anyway, after this case is over, there will be fewer meetings in the future.
I don't know why, she was a little empty in her heart, she should have replied with a word of goodbye, but she couldn't say it for a long time.
However, seeing that it is almost dark, and there is no condition to keep people to eat when their own small shop is closed, please invite people to go up and sit? That's even weirder.
Ling Li had no choice but to say, "Goodbye." ”
"Alright, you go upstairs, I'm really leaving."
With that, he turned around and walked in the direction of home.
A few minutes later, Ling Li stood silently in front of the bedroom window, looking at Nan Zhiyi's figure on the other side of the road.
The path downstairs was long and straight, and he walked slowly, kicking pebbles, bending down to look at the plants on the side of the road, and after a few minutes, the thin figure slowly disappeared into the night.
