It was supposed to be a good lunch, but it ended up in silence between the two.

Xie Yaotian knew that she was a little awkward, and deliberately found a topic to talk to her several times, but was ignored or ignored by Qu Zhenzhen.

"I'm going to send this box of chocolates to Kobayashi!" Picking up the cardboard box in the corner, Qu Zhenzhen made an excuse and went out of the room without looking back.

Xie Yaotian stood behind her, looking at her with dark eyes for a few seconds, wanting to say something, but in the end he only withdrew his gaze.

There are some things that he doesn't want her to know even if she is awkward......

On the other side, Qu Hazel, who was holding a cardboard box and swaying slowly in the corridor, was also very entangled in her heart.

She knew what was going on in the company, and she might not be able to help, but the action he was eager to cover up at that time hurt her heart.

"Humph! It's just a nice thing to say! Qu Hazel pursed her lips and kicked away the pebbles that had landed on the edge of the stairs with a careless kick.

The pebble kicked by her and rolled down to the grass with a grunt.

"Oops! Who is it?! Suddenly, there was a childish whisper.

A small figure standing on the grass quickly bent down and covered his ankles.

Qu Zhenzhen raised her eyes and realized that she had accidentally caused a big disaster, so she hurriedly walked over, "I'm sorry, are you okay?" ”

"It hurts a little." The little guy frowned and complained.

Hearing the voice, Qu Zhenzhen hurriedly looked down. The two looked at each other, only to realize that it was Lin Lin. It's just that he is not wearing the familiar hospital gown, but a set of gray casual clothes, and a pair of white cloth shoes on his feet, so Qu Zhenzhen didn't recognize him at first sight.

"It's you, are you alright? I'm going to look for you. Qu Hazel said, her fingertips pointing to a cardboard box on the ground, "Look, I've brought you chocolates." ”

Xiao Lin Lin looked at her hand, and her wrinkled little face suddenly stretched out, obviously very happy, but as if she suddenly remembered something, her face sank awkwardly, and asked her, "Didn't you leave in the morning?" ”

"Oh, I decided to leave, but yesterday I didn't promise you to help you contact your father, so I planned to delay my return for a few days." Qu Zhenzhen said, and when he talked about his father, it was obvious that the little guy's big eyes were brightened with guard.

"You...... Dressed like this, it can't be because you want to find your dad yourself, right? Qu Zhenzhen looked him up and down, and a few thoughts suddenly flashed in his mind, and then looked at the different clothes on the little guy's body, it seemed that his thoughts were more firm.

“…… You don't have to worry about my business. The little guy paused for a few seconds, as if he was struggling with something, but in the end he pushed Qu Hazel away and strode forward.

"Hey! What do you mean I don't have to worry about? I deliberately turned down my morning ticket and stayed here to help you, you little guy is like this to me? ”

Of course, Qu Zhenzhen wouldn't let him go like this, as he spoke, he stepped forward and grabbed his wrist.

"Don't pull me." The little one immediately

Began to shake his hand, refusing the touch of Qu Hazel.

Qu Zhenzhen didn't let go, but squatted down in front of him, looked him in the eyes, and said, "You didn't tell me that yesterday. ”

"I ...... I was because—" The little fellow was speechless, his face flushing, and he didn't know why he had begged her.

"Okay, it's okay, don't be shy, since my sister promised you, I will help you." Qu Zhenzhen saw his struggle, squatted down in front of him, and raised her hand to touch his head.

Xiao Lin Lin stood still, his expression was a little stiff, but when Qu Zhenzhen stretched out his hand, he didn't hide.

"Sister...... Can you really help me? He asked tentatively in a whisper.

Qu Hazel nodded, "Of course!" ”

"That-" Xiao Lin slowly breathed a sigh of relief, a smile on his face. It seems that he wants to say something to Qu Hazel. It's just that before he finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps behind the two.

"Lin'er!" Zhang Xue stood on the steps with an anxious face, looking at the two. Behind her were doctors and nurses with equally anxious faces.

As soon as Xiao Lin saw this scene, he immediately hid behind Qu Zhenzhen, and whispered in fear: "Sister, help me." ”

"Come here!" Zhang Xue stepped forward with a calm face and beckoned to him.

"Don't." Xiao Lin Lin stepped back, hiding behind Qu Zhenzhen, and shook his head slightly.

"Y-come here!" Zhang Xue's face was pale, and in the next second, Mu Ran lowered his eyebrows, and looked at Xiao Lin Lin with anger on his face.

Qu Zhenzhen could feel that Xiao Linlin's hand holding the hem of her clothes was suddenly frightened.

"Hehe, that, Lin Lin's mother, don't be in a hurry to get angry first, I asked Xiao Lin Lin to come here to find me." The atmosphere was not right, and Qu Hazel came forward at the right time to ease.

"What do you say? He's coming for you? Zhang Xue was slightly stunned, and looked at Qu Zhenzhen suspiciously.

Qu Zhenzhen nodded immediately, pointing to the cardboard box on the ground, "Yes, I promised him to give him the rest of the chocolate candy before." ”

Zhang Xue looked along, and sure enough, when she saw the cardboard box on the ground, her face eased slightly, she retracted her gaze, and looked at Qu Zhenzhen again, "Didn't you say you left this morning?" ”

"Oh, I was going to go, but because of the small—hiss!" Qu Zhenzhen exclaimed, and before she finished speaking, a sharp pain came from her waist, "What are you doing?" She gritted her teeth and looked down at the culprit behind her.

Xiao Lin Lin didn't speak, just shook his head at her.

I don't know why, Qu Zhenzhen suddenly understood, and said to Zhang Xue with a smile in turn: "Haha, it's actually nothing, I just feel that my husband's body hasn't recovered yet, and I'm going to stay a few more days before leaving." ”

"That's it, then you are ...... now" Zhang Xue nodded suspiciously, and looked at Xiao Lin Lin behind Qu Zhenzhen again.

Qu Zhenzhen also looked at the little guy who was still hugging him, and said with a smile: "Little child, I was scared by such a big battle as you, and you were full of anger, the little guy will inevitably be afraid." ”

"......" Zhang Xue was silent, staring

still fell on Xiao Lin Lin behind Qu Zhenzhen. It seems to be looking at the little guy's reaction with his eyes to determine whether Qu Zhenzhen's words are true or false.

However, she was destined not to see the truth or falsehood, because the little guy quickly retracted his head when he saw her gaze, and his whole little body shrank behind Qu Zhenzhen, not daring to move at all.

"Mother Lin Lin, since this is the case, you don't have to worry. The nurse and I went back first. The doctor, who had been standing behind him without speaking, stepped forward and said to Zhang Xue with a smile.

Zhang Xue withdrew her gaze from Xiao Lin Lin and looked at the doctor and several nurses behind her apologetically, "I'm really sorry, I called myself over to look for the child running around, delaying your time." ”

A nurse shook her head with a smile, "It's okay Lin Lin's mother, we are also worried about Xiao Lin Lin, fortunately, it's just a false alarm, the little guy's spirit is better these days than the previous days, it's really a little too skinny." ”

"yes, I'll take a good look at him when I get back." Zhang Xue nodded in agreement.

"It's okay, it's better for the children to be lively." The doctor smiled and continued, "Then let's go first, and you can talk slowly." ”

"Well, okay, thank you for your help." Zhang Xue nodded and watched the doctors and nurses leave.

After all the figures disappeared around the corner, Zhang Xue put away the smile on her face and looked in the direction of Xiao Lin Lin, "You come over to me." ”

There are no ups and downs in her voice, and there is no special tone, making it impossible to tell if she is angry or saying normal words.

Qu Hazelnut and Kobayashi Lin both stood still.

"Lin'er, come here." Zhang Xue took a breath, and then said flatly.

This time, Xiao Lin Lin reacted, and a head cautiously popped out from behind Qu Zhenzhen, and said timidly: "Mom, don't be angry. ”

Zhang Xue raised her hand to support her forehead and whispered, "If you come over first, my mother won't be angry." ”

Xiao Lin Lin was shaken and tried to take a step forward, "You're really not angry?" ”

Zhang Xue didn't make a sound, just looked at him and motioned for him to come over quickly.

Xiao Lin took one step, two steps, closer and closer, and finally when there were only two steps left, he suddenly stopped and whispered again: "Mom, you said you wouldn't be angry, right?" ”
