Hearing this question from Ling Li's mouth again, Zhu Jinchuan was stunned, a little stunned: "You are persistent, do you know this problem, no one on the Chengda Institute, including Lao Ma, dares to mention it in front of me easily?" Not only did you mention it, but today is the third time you have mentioned it. ”

She didn't expect it to be a taboo, and stammered a little: "I...... I ......"

Zhu Jinchuan shook his head and interrupted her spitting: "You will slowly understand the reason." Now, you just have to remember that when the whole world thinks you're losing, there's still a way out. It's just that when you choose to be opportunistic, then, you have to pay the price. ”

For his words, Ling Li thought thoughtfully for a while.

Although she didn't quite understand what the meaning of this passage had to do with Qin Xinghai's case, she could obviously feel Zhu Jinchuan's efforts in this case, and what she said by hearsay might not be the truth.

Moreover, I can take time out of my busy schedule to take her to Changshan, drive for at least ten hours in two days, and drink and worry about big and small things.

Thinking of this, Ling Li raised her face and said solemnly: "Thank you, Director Zhu, I am really embarrassed to speak disrespectfully to you before." ”

Zhu Jinchuan hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled lightly: "Okay, don't pretend to respect me very much." I have already seen it, you don't treat me as a master, you are angry and scatter, and you will leave if you don't agree, anyway, there is Uncle Zhang's affection, even if you want to turn the sky upside down, I don't dare to do anything to you. ”

He blamed without the slightest anger, but Ling Li was speechless, and his serious and serious apology was crooked by him, like a fist hitting cotton.

Moreover, in the year of being cautious in the institute, where is it called being angry and casual?

After stumbling for a while, Ling Li finally said insincerely: "Then, thank you for your tolerance." ”

But I muttered in my heart, I wish you a lot of tolerance? What a hell of a life.

"Although what you think in your heart is not the same as what you say, but no thanks." He bowed slightly, there seemed to be a smile in his voice, and the coldness between his eyebrows was gone.

Ling Li opened her mouth and found that she couldn't take it anymore, so she had to admit defeat with a bitter face: "Okay, Master, I will listen to everything you say, and I won't talk back." ”

Hearing that Ling Li had finally resumed his previous title, Zhu Jinchuan nodded with satisfaction: "I have a longer memory, and I know how to call people." It's just that, Second Sister Ling, do you really, don't remember me? ”

Ling Li looked up in shock when she heard this. I saw that the corners of his thin lips were slightly raised, the brilliance in his eyes was flowing, there was a faint smile between his eyebrows, and his thin face was reflected by the firelight, half-bright and half-dark, and there was some illusion of warmth.

This was the second time he had called her by that name. However, she was very sure that when she met Zhu Jinchuan at the law firm a year ago, she had never had the impression of such a person in her mind.

Especially his indifferent and detached eyes at that time, he could really feel the disgust from his heart at a glance, which left a deep impression on Ling Li at that time.

It was precisely because of the first time they met that she was a little afraid of Zhu Jinchuan in her subsequent work.

So, where did this sentence come from in Zhu Jinchuan's mouth?

She easily withdrew her gaze, frowned and thought for a long time, still without a clue.

Zhu Jinchuan saw her meditative appearance, and sighed: "Don't guess, just think about the bad things you did during the summer vacation before you went to elementary school." ”

Ling Li frowned, her birthday was at the end of August, the summer vacation before going to elementary school, that was the summer when she was six years old.

When she was six years old, Zhu Jinchuan should be fifteen years old, she should still be a teenager, and she should be either in the third year of junior high school or the first year of high school......

That summer, she and her sister lived at her uncle's house for a while, and her uncle and aunt had not yet been laid off, and sometimes they would take them to the factory to play.

The factory is very large, the greenery is also very good, there are abundant flowers and trees, and there is a big pond with turtles, koi fish, and it seems that there are crayfish......

It's just that they were bold and did a stupid thing that year, and it seems that they indirectly harmed an innocent person......

Finally, the memory that had been silent for a long time was awakened, and a familiar face passed through my mind.

Ling Li was shocked, covering her mouth and almost screaming: "It's you?!" ”

Zhu Jinchuan glanced at her lightly, then turned his head and lowered his eyes, looked at his toes, and said in a calm and steady tone: "Yes, it's me." ”

————

In the early morning, the snow finally stopped after two days and two nights, and the roar of the snow plow on the road not far away, followed by the sound of police cars pulling sirens from far and near and gradually moving away.

Ling Li took Zhu Jinchuan's wide clothes as a quilt, and lay on her side in the back seat of the off-road vehicle, sleeping a little confused.

I wish Jinchuan to be rigorous and clean, his clothes naturally have no strange taste, only a little laundry detergent smell, and it is very comfortable.

It's just that all kinds of sounds outside the window are mixed together, which is very annoying, as if it is close at hand, and it seems to come from afar, and it is always difficult to hear.

She rolled over and buried her head in the pile of clothes, trying to sleep a little longer.

However, not long after, the sound of tapping on the glass continued to sound in my ears, although the sound was not loud, but it persevered and kept "tuk tuk" and noisy.

Ling Li was even more upset by this noise, and was about to sleep without changing directions, when suddenly a somewhat cold male voice said: "Ling Li, get up." ”

This transparent voice, as if piercing the clouds and breaking the sun, made her head sober up instantly, and she immediately sat up.

It's just that the eyes that have just woken up are still a little worried, and the vision is a little blurry, Ling Li pinched his palm vigorously, forcing himself to wake up quickly, and when he turned his head, he met Zhu Jinchuan's cool gaze.

Even through the glass, even if she was a big myopia, she could clearly feel the displeasure in his eyes, and for a moment, the blood all over her body seemed to rush to her brain, and she was a little surprised.

Zhu Jinchuan saw that she finally woke up, covered his mouth and coughed slightly, and gave a short and clear instruction: "The road is open, get up, and go back to the capital." ”

got out of the car, limped to fetch water to freshen up, and then ate a bowl of instant noodles that Zhu Jinchuan gave her.

After a while, it seemed that the pain in her feet was no longer so obvious, but the instep was still swollen and she couldn't wear her original shoes, so she had to put on the pair of red cotton shoes with a strong local flavor.

The cars in front of him were slowly lined up, and Zhu Jinchuan drove the car with Ling Li to leave this small service area that had been there for almost twenty hours, merging into the slow but finally moving traffic.

Because of the heavy snowfall just now, although the wrecker snow removal truck has been working non-stop, there is always ice on the road, in order to control the car to avoid further accidents, all vehicles have to follow behind the police car that opened the road.

However, as there is less and less snow on the roadside, the speed of driving is getting faster and faster, from the earliest crawling at a turtle speed of more than ten kilometers to the speed of forty kilometers per hour through the Ganhaizi Tunnel, after more than two hours, the highway has been completely dredged.

However, after sitting in the car for a long time, Ling Li was still in a trance.

Zhu Jinchuan was silent as always, he didn't like to talk, Ling Li was shocked by the past he recalled yesterday, at this time, his head was half water and half noodles, and he became a mess when he moved a little, thinking about his thoughts sullenly.

She pursed her lips and looked at the snow outside the window that had gradually disappeared, and from her own glass, she saw Zhu Jinchuan's shadow reflected in it, and she was annoyed.

She should have reacted a long time ago, the past that her uncle said over and over again, she had already heard calluses in her ears, but she never went to her heart.

Zhu Jinchuan's parents are former colleagues of his uncle, and they also live close, and didn't he happen to live in the capital for a period of time during the summer vacation of that year?

Therefore, the boy who carried the black pot for a ridiculous prank by her and her sister is actually the amazing fact that Zhu Dazhu, why did she realize it now?

Although she was only six years old at the time, her memory was still vague, but the impression of the bad things she had done with her sister was too deep, and it belonged to the black history of her childhood, and the parents did not beat her up for this, and I really want to thank Zhu Jinchuan, who was blamed back then, for not complaining.

It is said that the little brother was beaten by his parents and didn't get out of bed for half a month.

However, for not matching Zhu Jinchuan with the brother named Kuroko, it was because his appearance when he was young was too different from now.

What kind of reborn medicine did the black, fat, round-headed, round-headed, round-arms, round-legged boy who grew into a thin, high-definition, cold and serious Zhu Da now?

Ling Li covered her forehead and was a little speechless, and Zhu Jinchuan had a faint smile in her voice: "Look at the question mark in your eyes, what's wrong?" Still can't believe it? ”

Being told that he was on his mind, Ling Li had to nod, with some chagrin in his voice: "You have really changed too much, who can see it?" ”

Zhu Jinchuan put his hand on the steering wheel casually, and his eyes were looking straight ahead: "You haven't changed, you're still so fierce." ”

Ling Li was choked by his words, and her voice was muffled: "Zhu Dazhuo, don't you mention the things of the year again, okay?" I was wrong, and I won't dare to do it again. ”

Zhu Jinchuan smiled again: "Second Sister Ling, it turns out that you will blow up your hair when you mention this." It's good now, you have a handle in my hands, and if you don't obey me in the future, I'll talk to Uncle Zhang about the things of the year. ”

Ling Li was stumped in his heart by him, and he didn't want to speak anymore, so he simply used the trick of pretending to be asleep again.

However, Zhu Jinchuan refused to let her go: "Don't pretend to be asleep, take advantage of the few hours in the car, you should think about the idea of defense, find a time next week, and hold another mock court." ”

He tilted his face slightly and said, "The next simulation, it's going to be real." If you don't prepare well, I'm sure you'll be forced to say a word by me, a mock prosecutor. ”

Seeing that Ling Li was choked by him and couldn't say a word, silently turning his back and rolling his eyes, the smile between his eyebrows sank into his heart.

That summer, this little wild girl with pigtails who jumped at him for a jar of chicken soup, and the big wild girl who threatened to smash the glass window of his house at every turn, broke into his life so vividly and unreasonably.

Obviously warned them many times, don't move the hornet's nest in the factory area, there will be adults to deal with it, but these two girls, secretly found a bamboo pole to poke it down, not to say, and when the hornets flew in, they jumped into the pond in a panic, the small one didn't know the water, and was almost drowned, and he dragged it ashore.

Later, the wasp flew everywhere, stinged several people, and the most serious one was hospitalized for several days, but fortunately the bee was not too poisonous and did not cause death.

He was mistaken by his father for the one who caused the trouble with itchy hands, and he was tied to the bench and smoked with a feather duster so that he couldn't get out of bed, but he gritted his teeth and carried the black pot without saying a word.

He was afraid that if he said it, the big girl who always stared angrily, but laughed like a cool breeze, would stop playing with him.

It's just that the two figures who were one big and one small sang and scolded him so much that he didn't dare to go out, and now there is only the lonely one in front of him.

Things are not people, and what was once missed can never be recovered.
