I know that incident is almost equivalent to Lu Ming's sore feet.
Now that he has mentioned it repeatedly, he is undoubtedly revealing his scars.
I whispered, "I'm sorry." β
Lu Ming retracted the painful look on his face, he sat there with his eyes closed and said, "No, it's not your fault, just don't mention it again, I don't want to hear it, do you understand?" β
I don't know why, in the face of such a Lu Ming, I am a little overwhelmed.
I don't know what to do with him.
At this time, there was a sudden sound of the door opening the door, Lu Ming and I looked at it at the same time, and before the door was completely opened, my aunt called outside: "Miss, are you inside?" β
When Lu Ming heard his aunt's voice, he actually got up directly from the sofa and said, "I just came to see you, since you are all right now, I am also relieved, I will leave first." β
He seemed to be afraid of seeing the living, and turned to leave.
I didn't expect such a situation, and wanted to stop Lu Ming, but who knew that my aunt happened to push the door from the outside, and after she came in, she stood there stunned after seeing the situation inside.
She stared at Lu Ming.
And Lu Ming didn't say anything when he faced her gaze, just hurriedly walked out.
The aunt immediately got out of the way of the door and let him out.
After I caught up, I shouted: "Lu Ming! β
But my words were drowned out at the moment when the elevator door closed.
I stood and stared in a daze, I didn't expect him to leave so anxiously when he saw his aunt, was he afraid of seeing the living?
I stood there staring at the closed elevator door for a few seconds, but decided to go back to my room first.
My aunt was still standing in place with the vegetables, and when she saw me coming back, she said, "Miss, that person is not the rapist more than a year ago..."
Before she could fully say anything, I said coldly to my aunt, "He's not raping, don't talk nonsense here." β
Auntie listened to my slightly angry words, she immediately silenced, did not dare to say more, so she took the food in her hand and went to the kitchen.
I don't know why, I just felt trembling all over, even my aunt knew about it and recognized Lu Ming.
It can be seen how big the impact of this matter is.
No wonder Chen Lina only said that he regretted it when she mentioned Lu Ming.
I clenched my fists, suppressed my emotions, and went inside.
After that, my aunt cooked the meal and called me out to eat, so I came out of the room and went to the table.
Auntie was there to serve me food.
She probably knew that she had said the wrong thing before, so she moved very lightly and didn't dare to make a sound.
I put the envelope in my hand on the table and said to my aunt, "This is your salary for taking care of me during this time, my leg is already healed, so from today onwards, you don't have to take care of me anymore, go back." β
The aunt was startled, and immediately asked, "Miss, but I said the wrong thing just now?" I really didn't mean it just now, but that person had a little impression in his mind, and he subconsciously said it, and I will definitely not talk nonsense in the future. β
I looked at my aunt: "It has nothing to do with you, the main thing is that I retire now, I don't need you to take care of it, go back." β
The aunt said, "But Mr. Chen sent me over to take care of you, and you asked me to go back, how can I tell him." β
I said, "I'll tell him, don't worry." β
I pushed the money in front of her and said, "There is also a prize of 3,000 in it, which can be regarded as a thank you for taking good care of me during this time." β
The aunt stood there, but she didn't dare to pick it up, she didn't know what to do, she didn't go, she didn't go, she hesitated for a few seconds, she still didn't take the money on the table, she said: "Mr. Chen has already paid my salary, so you don't have to give it anymore." β
When she had finished speaking, she smiled at me, took off her apron, put it on her chair, looked at me again, and saw that I had not kept it, so she went to the guest room to get her things, and finally left the place.
I looked at the envelope for two seconds and went back to eating.
Sure enough, almost in the evening, I received a call from Chen Qingchuan, and he didn't need me to contact him at all, he asked on the phone: "I heard that you quit your aunt, don't you need it?" β
I said to him, "I have a better leg now, so I don't need my aunt, let her go back." β
Chen Qingchuan was silent on the other end of the phone.
I thought about it for a moment and took the initiative to say, "Are you free at night?" β
Chen Qingchuan said on the phone: "Yes. β
I said, "Come downstairs to my house, I have something to look for you." β
"I'm still in a meeting, maybe ten o'clock," he said. β
I said, "It's okay at ten o'clock, I'll wait for you at home, you go downstairs and call me." β
He was on the phone: "Hmm. "Yes.
After that, the two of us didn't talk much, and he was indeed in the conference room, and I faintly heard someone talking, so we hung up.
After arriving at ten o'clock in the evening, Chen Qingchuan called me, after I received it, I immediately went downstairs, his car was parked there, thinking of the relationship between the two of us now, afraid of gossiping, so I directly pulled the car door and sat in the back seat.
Today is the driver driving, Chen Qingchuan is also sitting behind, it seems that there is an important meeting today, so he is dressed more cautiously than usual.
It was almost eleven o'clock, he was a little tired between his eyebrows, and when he saw me in the car, he said to me very apologetically: "I was dozens of minutes late, sorry, because something delayed." β
I smiled and said, "No, I didn't have to wait long." β
With that, I took the envelope out of my pocket and handed it to him.
Chen Qingchuan's eyes fell on the envelope, maybe when I called him, he had already guessed the purpose of my asking him to come over and send it today.
He didn't move, and he didn't reach out to take it.
I said, "This is my aunt's salary for taking care of me at home these days, and she said that you have already settled it for her, so I will give you this money." β
Chen Qingchuan frowned slightly, and he looked at me: "Do you have to calculate it so clearly?" Cheerful. β
I still kept a smile and said: "Of course, now we don't matter, if you don't have a girlfriend before, it's okay, this money, it doesn't matter if you don't pay it back, but now you are half a fiancΓ©e, this kind of cheapness, I can't take advantage of it, if she knows, she will definitely not be happy in her heart, although I haven't become very smart, but in the past two years, I still understand this bit of human sophistication." β
Chen Qingchuan looked at me with a slightly cold gaze.
He said: "I don't want us to be like this, you are not even ordinary friends." β
I raised my hand and swore at him, "I really don't, I swear to you, I just don't want to cause you trouble, and Lin Yutang-"
"Kaiyan, she's not as narrow as you say." He suddenly spoke up and interrupted me.
Because of his words, I was stunned for a few seconds.
I immediately explained, "That's not what I meant, you know. β
He said with a little impatience in his tone: "Okay, you put down the money, I will give it to Auntie." β
Seeing him say that, I can't say anything more.
Just looked at him, and he no longer looked at me, but sat there with his eyes closed tiredly, obviously not wanting to negotiate with me too much.
I pinched the envelope in my hand for a long time, then carefully placed it between us, and I said, "Well, then I'll go upstairs first." β
He said, "Go up." β
I didn't stop, put down the envelope, pushed the door and got out of the car.
He sat in the car, turned his face to the other side, and didn't look at me again.
I had to close the door.
The car quickly left in front of me without stopping.
I know he's angry, but I think it's good that way, so that the relationship will not be broken.
Between me and him, that's how it should be.
I went upstairs.
After that, Chen Qingchuan never came to me again, and I did the same, after giving him money, I didn't contact him again.
Because during that time, I tried to contact Lu Ming again, but whether it was a phone call, WeChat, or other contact software, I sent him a message, but there was no reply.
Lu Ming didn't reply, so I contacted Cao Jie and Tan Hui and asked them about Lu Ming's specific situation.
Because I saw Lu Ming that day, he was too abnormal, and even looked a little autistic.
Tan Hui and Cao Jie told me that they might not have seen Lu Ming for a long time, and since that incident, he has stopped contacting them, just like me now, texting and calling him, but there is no reply, no sound.
I asked them if they could get in touch with him.
Cao Jie said that he had contacted Lu Ming's sister and said, maybe, I can try to find Lu Yunqing.
But this is not a good way for me, and my relationship with Lu Yunqing is not good.
And Lu Ming has become like this, I am almost half of the responsibility, how could she let me see Lu Ming.
Cao Jie said on the phone: "Now only Lu Ming's family can contact him, and we really haven't contacted him for a long time, this is the only way, if you want to find it, I can give you Lu Yunqing's phone." β
I hesitated, but after thinking about it, I don't care so much for the time being, and let Cao Jie call me first.
I said, "Thank you." β
Cao Jie said: "No, Lu Ming is also our friend, no matter what, we also hope that he can get better." β
Cao Jie and I didn't say much, and then hung up.
It didn't take long for Cao Jie to send me Lu Yunqing's phone.
Actually, I used to have it, but then I deleted it because I didn't think it was useful.
I stared at Lu Yunqing's number for a long time, and I didn't decide to contact her for the time being, so I just saved it and called Chen Lina first.
I asked her on the phone if Lu Ming had contacted her in the past few days.
Chen Lina didn't know why I suddenly asked about Lu Ming, she said, "We haven't been in touch for a long time. β
I didn't speak.
Chen Lina thought of something, so she asked, "He came to you?" β
I said, "yes, just the other day." β
"it..."Chen Lina couldn't believe it.
But soon, she said: "Lu Ming is estimated to be able to take the initiative to contact now, and the only person who takes the initiative to meet is you." β
She didn't stop at this, she asked again: "By the way, what about you and Chen Qingchuan?" What do you think? That Lin Yutang, he should be making all kinds of trouble for you, right? Knowing that you are Chen Qingchuan's ex-wife, she must not make it difficult for you to die, so that Chen Qingchuan will see clearly that Lin Yutang's character, and the two will definitely break up. β
Regarding Chen Lina's words, I was speechless and said: "Not only did she not embarrass me, but she also invited me to a meal with Chen Qingchuan." β
Chen Lina couldn't believe it and asked, "What did you say?" The two of them treated you to a meal together? β
I said, "Yes, we treated me to a meal." β
Chen Lina scolded on the other end of the phone: "What does Chen Qingchuan mean?!" He wouldn't really be interested in that Lin Yutang, would he?! This turtle son, I'll call her and scold her. β
Chen Lina was about to hang up the phone, and I called: "Lina." β
I heard her hang up on the other end of the line.
I said to her very seriously: "Me and Chen Qingchuan, it's really no longer possible, don't think about it anymore, even if I beg you." β
Chen Lina didn't expect that I would use the word begging for her.
She said, "Are you really willing?" Let another woman take over everything that belongs to you? β
I said, "There is no unwillingness, this is everything that I am willing to flee from." β
Chen Lina sighed and did not speak.
Again, I said, "Just take it as if I begged you, Lina." β
Chen Lina said: "What else can I do? You've said it yourself, so what can I, an outsider, do? β
I said, "Thank you." β
Chen Lina sighed and said, "Okay, that's it, I don't understand between you anyway." β
After she said this, it was estimated that Peng Wu was calling her to eat over there, and she didn't talk to me much, and hung up the phone in a hurry.
After hanging up the phone with Chen Lina, I flipped out Lu Yunqing's phone again.
