Chapter 37: Don't Hurt If You Don't Love
Li Luo originally thought that Leng Yanshuo suddenly approached to kiss her, but her heart skipped a beat, straightened her neck, and carefully dodged back.
When the lips were about to touch, Leng Yanshuo suddenly blew a sip of wine at Li Luo, without warning...
Li Luo never expected it, blinked his eyes suspiciously, broke free from Leng Yanshuo's embrace, and looked like he had been tricked.
The man was pushed away, leaned against the car door, and laughed, his chest rising and falling with the laughter, the corners of his mouth grinning wide and showing his white and neat teeth, and his eyes were flushed with drunkenness and laughter.
The girl sat on one side, pouting and pretending to be angry, very cute, with her little hands on her thin waist, really like a camel breathing fire.
There was a faint smell of alcohol wafting through the air near the tip of her nose, and she smelled a little drunk.
The assistant looked at the two people in the back seat through the rearview mirror, and the corners of his mouth also raised a reassuring arc, the boss has never been so happy, is this girl his medicine?
Healed the wounds and loneliness in his heart.
After laughing, the man was even more drunk, leaning crookedly on the car door, Li Luo saw that he was so drunk, and asked the assistant who was driving to turn around and send Leng Yanshuo back first.
"I won't, I'll send you first." Leng Yanshuo's voice was hoarse and muffled, with a hint of coquettishness.
"If you drink too much, I'll give it to you first, and then I'll give it to me, obedient."
Li Luo straightened the man's body and rested his head on the headrest of the back seat, holding his head to prevent him from slipping to the side.
The man didn't resist, he was too drunk and tired, and he leaned there and fell asleep.
After driving for about forty minutes, he finally arrived home, Li Luo woke up Leng Yanshuo, who was asleep, and told him that he was home, he slowly opened his eyes, a little confused, raised his hand and scratched his neck, the whole person was confused.
"Then I'll go back."
Leng Yanshuo raised his hand and pinched Li Luo's face, put his big hand on the top of her head and shook it lightly twice, and got out of the car.
Li Luo didn't want to get out of the car, but he still sighed and jumped down with a sigh in his swaying appearance, and took him home with Leng Yanshuo, who was shaking.
During this period, Leng Yanshuo also pointed to his neighbor's door and shouted, this is my house!
In vain Li fell alone embarrassed.
In the end, he successfully placed the tall Leng Yanshuo on the bed and took off his shoes and socks.
Leng Yanshuo got up as soon as he lay on the pillow, clamoring to take off his clothes, but Li Luo had no choice but to help him take it off.
dragged all the way to his pants, Li Luo quickly covered his face, turned around shyly and shouted at him, "Leng Yan is enough!" Don't take it off! ”
"I'm done."
The man was naked and strong, with only a pair of underwear on his lower body, lying on the bed crookedly, and his eight-pack abs floated with his breathing.
Li Luo felt that his cheeks were almost burning red, and he pressed his chest, his heart pounding.
grabbed the quilt and covered him and prepared to escape from this place, Leng Yanshuo closed his eyes and reflexively took the girl's hand,
"Don't go, don't go... Don't leave me alone..."
Don't leave me alone?
He must be lonely,
On weekdays, when he has no work and no parties, he stays by himself.
Alone, alone.
Sometimes, after three rounds of drinking, looking at his friends who were drinking and talking, he still felt lonely and lonely, as if such happiness was stolen by him, and sometimes the laughter was not a laugh from the heart.
After pretending for a long time, I will be tired.
Since he and Li Luo regained some of their old feelings, he has a real smile, and his whole person has become real, not like before, like a void soul.
The hard-won time with Li Luo, he didn't want to miss a single thing.
"Don't go..."
"It's time for me to go home, I have to go home and clean up, didn't I make an appointment for everyone to come to the house tomorrow to play? Obedient, you sleep well and come to my house tomorrow. Li Luo looked at the restlessness of sleeping, so that Leng Yanshuo was a little soft-hearted, caressed the top of his head, and saw that he was sleeping again, so he left with confidence.
The assistant was still waiting for her downstairs, and Li Luo sat in the co-pilot, looking at the night city outside the car window, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Miss Li, you may think I'm more abrupt, but I still want to say a few words to you." The assistant thought for a long time and began to speak.
"You say."
"The boss has always been lonely, even with his best friends, he still can't find himself, he is still immersed in his own pain.
Sometimes he seems to be relaxed, but in fact he just plays it for so long that it becomes a character in his script. ”
The assistant's words were light and light, without ups and downs,
But it also hit Li Luo's heart.
It's not that she didn't notice that sometimes everyone was playing, and Leng Yanshuo also laughed, but after the smile, there was a sudden change of indifference, and there was no warmth or emotion in his smile.
He just pretended he was happy.
"How long have you known each other?" The girl turned her head to look at the assistant who was driving seriously, and asked in an indifferent tone.
"It's been seven years, and after Mr. Leng was released from prison, he met me on the street who was also begging."
"Begging?"
"Well, we've wandered together."
"His family should give him money, how could he be in such a field?"
Li Luo was a little surprised, his parents should have given a living allowance if his son had an accident, so he didn't care.
"It was given him a sum of money, but Mr. Leng never touched it, and now it is still in a separate account. He started the company by saving a sum of money from his part-time job. ”
The assistant paused and continued,
"Miss Li, in fact, I know you, I have met with Mr. He before, I don't know what specific things have happened between you, but I, as Mr. Leng's more personal employee and as a friend, want to tell you that he is not doing well.
If you don't have love for him, it's better to make it clear earlier. I can see that Mr. Leng cares about you very much, he has never been so attentive to a girl, nor has he smiled as genuinely as he did just now. ”
His words are actually telling Li Luo that if there is no love, don't hurt.
Leng Yanshuo put a whole fragile heart that was full of enthusiasm into Li Luo's hands, if she didn't cherish or hurt it, he should completely collapse.
Li Luo didn't speak again, the car stopped at the downstairs of Li Luo's house, and she got out of the car and walked towards the door of the apartment.
The assistant stopped Li Luo in the car, "If today's words have caused you trouble, I apologize to you, and I hope you can seriously consider your relationship with Mr. Leng." ”
After all, in the assistant's opinion, she didn't obviously refuse Leng Yanshuo's affection.
It's a bit half-pushed.
The girl looked back at the assistant and said to him, "I will."
The assistant dusted away, and Li Luo returned home and threw her tired self into the bathtub, her mind echoing what the assistant had said to her.
Leng Yanshuo woke up after sleeping at home for a while, the pain in his stomach burned his nerves, he rolled out of bed, ran to the bathroom and lay on the toilet and vomited, vomiting all the food and wine at night.
After vomiting, the stomach was empty.
I took out a random bathrobe from the closet and put it on my body, and found a few bottles of painkillers from the drawer of my desk in the study.
The man threw the pills into his mouth with trembling hands, and he didn't care how many they were, he didn't drink water, and swallowed them directly.
The bitter taste melts in the mouth.
In the unclosed drawer was a somewhat faded photograph.
It's a girl.
With a ponytail, a white dress, and a white rabbit in his hand, he faces the camera with a bright smile on his face.
This is the photo that Li Luo secretly took away from Li's mother's photo album when he was a child, and he took it like this for ten years, countless painful and lonely nights, and this photo accompanied him.
The man reached out and stroked the girl in the photo, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, pushed up the drawer and returned to the bedroom, and fell asleep with his hand on his aching stomach...
Early the next morning, Li Luo went to the supermarket to buy some necessary ingredients for hot pot and went home to prepare.
Leng Yanshuo was the first to arrive, obviously he didn't sober up, and when he arrived, he took off his shoes and went into the sofa to catch up on sleep.
Li Luo saw that he was very uncomfortable, and thought about using the existing ingredients to make him a hangover soup.
"Ding-dong... Ding Dong..."The doorbell rings.
The girl put down the soup spoon in her hand and ran to the door to open the door, Chu Xiao and Murong Ran Ye Yiyi were standing outside the door, and they actually arrived together.
"Dangchang! Happy moving! Chu Xiao held a bottle of high-end and expensive red wine in his hand and congratulated Li Luo.
Murong Ran was holding a large watermelon in his hand.
The girl owes herself and leads them into the house.
Leng Yanshuo was woken up by the doorbell, and was already sitting on the sofa waiting for them.
Chu Xiao was a little curious when he saw that he didn't fix his hairstyle, and sat next to him and pulled Leng Yanshuo's messy and upturned hair, and laughed at him, "What's wrong with you?" The first time, I didn't care about the image. ”
"Just woke up." Leng Yanshuo slapped away the hand on his head that was pulling wildly.
"Just woke up? Did you sleep here last night? Murong Ran looked at Leng Yanshuo with an ambiguous expression, and the word gossip hung on his soft face.
"No, he just came." Li Luo smiled and said to help Leng Yanshuo explain, put a bowl of hangover soup on the table with a bowl of hangover soup in his hand, and then beckoned everyone to start eating.
Everyone sat around a not too big dining table, the hot pot was gurgling hot, Leng Yanshuo got up with his own dishes and chopsticks, came to Chu Xiao's side, and kicked his chair.
"Go sit with me."
Chu Xiao glanced left and right, he just sat casually, and accidentally sat next to Li Luo, who let Leng Yanshuo come over slowly and leisurely, he could only sit on the side.
Helpless, he had to hold the dishes and chopsticks and raise his butt and sit in the position before Leng Yanshuo, Leng Yanshuo, who sat back next to Li Luo, was very happy, and enjoyed the soup that Li Luo made for him alone with tenderness.
"Why is there only cold words and soup, camels are not fair!"
Ye Yiyi looked at the soup bowl in Leng Yanshuo's hand, looking forward to it.
"He drank too much yesterday, and the bowl made hangover soup for him."
"Drinking too much? How much more can you drink? Who to fool! Chu Xiao knew how good Leng Yanshuo's alcohol was, and he felt that Leng Yanshuo must have pretended to be in order to get Li Luo's pity and care.
"I haven't drunk it for a long time, and suddenly I'm a little unaccustomed to drinking." Leng Yanshuo explained in a low voice.
"Eat some meat." Leng Yanshuo fished out a spoonful of mutton for Li Luo from the hot pot.
"Well, you eat too."
The two of you are eating hot pot back and forth, and everyone is awkward to watch.
"Huh? I forgot to ask you, there were no accidents on the day of the press conference, right? Murong Ran broke the strange atmosphere at the moment and asked Leng Yanshuo.
"No, it's about the same as expected."
Leng Yanshuo chewed the green vegetables in his mouth, and didn't want to mention the events of that day.
In fact, Li Luo has always wanted to ask about He Shengyu's tax evasion, but he didn't find a suitable time, so it was better to take advantage of Murong Ran's topic to ask.
"Is it true that He Shengyu evaded taxes?"
The man was stunned for a moment, and the hand that wanted to stretch out the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables retreated and put the chopsticks on the table.
Is she still so concerned about He Shengyu's situation?
"Hmm." Leng Yanshuo lowered his eyes, unable to see the expression in his eyes clearly.
"Why did you mention this all of a sudden?" Li Luo's tone was a little reproachful, if Leng Yanshuo didn't say it, he might not have been discovered by everyone so quickly, and maybe he would never be found out.
"If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have let people know about it for the rest of my life.
Just a lesson. ”
