Remember [Flag] in a second, popular free reading!
Although she was a little indulgent last night, but the next morning, the biological clock still pulled her up on time, Qiao Zhichu stretched her waist, rubbed her eyes with one hand, and rubbed a hard object in the cold, opened her eyes and saw that she found that someone had a ring on her finger, and this ring was still a little familiar, thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be the one on Sui Ran's hand.
She was stunned: "Ring? ”
Ji Yunshen got up before her, took off his pajamas with his back to her, took out his shirt from the wardrobe and changed it into: "On your birthday last year, I asked Sui Ran to bring you a gift." ”
It's just that she understands it all.
At that time, their relationship was lukewarm, and Sui Ran was sure that with Ji Yunshen's character, she would never ask such a thing, so she hid it fearlessly and found a good time to wear it in front of her to answer her.
Qiao Zhichu gently rubbed the ring on her hand, and the ring was still as delicate as the first time she saw it: "So that's the case." ”
Ji Yunshen turned around and lowered his head and kissed her eyebrows: "Now it's time for things to return to their original owners." ”
The property is returned to its original owner...... Qiao Zhichu looked at the ring on his hand, slowly curled up his fingers, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Ji Yunshen changed his clothes and was about to go downstairs for breakfast, when Qiao Zhichu got out of bed, he suddenly remembered the phone call yesterday afternoon, and couldn't help but look at him: "You went to see Xiao Yunrong yesterday?" ”
Ji Yunshen looked at it, her eyes were a little deep, and she had to explain: "When I called you, she answered it." ”
Ji Yunshen paused: "A friend sent a restored book, and just after passing through the house, I sent it to her." ”
"That's right."
Qiao Zhichu has a case to be held today, the court is in the city center, in order to prevent traffic jams, she went out an hour early, who would have thought that because of the rain, there are not many cars on the road, the road is smooth, and there is no jam at all, when she arrived at the door of the court, there was still an hour and a half to leave the courtroom.
"God is here to oppose me." Qiao Zhichu got out of the car with an umbrella, looked at the drizzle in the sky and muttered.
When she retracted her gaze, she suddenly saw several abrupt figures on the opposite street, led by an old man with gray temples, wearing a Tang costume and a cane, followed by four bodyguards in pure black suits, a group of five of them walking in the rain, very eye-catching, she looked at the old man stunned for a moment, and subconsciously shouted: "Mr. Yan!" ”
The man over there heard the voice, stopped his footsteps, and looked at her.
There was a street between them, and the old man was old and not very eyesightly, and he squinted when he looked at her, but he still didn't seem to be able to see clearly, and he didn't recognize her.
Qiao Zhichu dodged the traffic, came to Yan Lao, pursed his lips and smiled, "Do you remember me?" You helped me last time in Banyan City. ”
Yan Lao thought for a while and remembered: "I remember you, the girl who knows vases very well." ”
"It's me."
He smiled and nodded: "What a coincidence, I actually met you on the road, why are you here?" ”
"I work in Gangneung, and the last time I went to Rongcheng, I accompanied a friend." Qiao Zhi smiled, "Last time you helped me, I didn't even find a chance to thank you." ”
Saying that, she looked at the teahouse on the street, and just now his footsteps seemed to be going inside, so he pushed the boat down the river and said, "Otherwise, I will invite you to have a cup of tea?" ”
Yan Lao followed her to look at the teahouse, with a smile in his eyes: "Okay." ”
There are not many such antique teahouses in Gangneung, after all, this is a financial city, tea tasting takes time and patience, few people can sit down so calmly, but a person like Yan Lao seems to be born to belong to this kind of place, he sits on a cushion, his hair is gray, his eyebrows are peaceful, and the corners of his mouth are smiling, which can make people think of all the words about kindness.
It's just that Qiao Zhichu doesn't really think that he is just an old man who tastes tea.
Mr. Hu is not a simple character, but he was able to bring her out unscathed just by showing up that day, which is enough to prove that he also has the field that Mr. Hu is involved in, and the power is in Mr. Hu, so Mr. Hu is so jealous of him.
His kindness is only superficial, and she still has this bit of eyesight.
They asked for a private room, and the waiter served tea and dessert and left, guarding Yan Lao's bodyguard at the door.
Yan Lao smiled: "It was just a gesture to help you that day, but the kid who took you away later gave me a big gift, which is already a big thanks, and today you thank you again, my old man feels embarrassed, as if he took advantage of your little girl." ”
Qiao Zhichu was surprised: "Did he give you a gift?" ”
"You don't know? Haha, I can see that he is a person who does not want to owe favors to others. Yan Lao brewed a cup of tea and put it in front of her, "Speaking of which, you are from Jiangling, and so is he?" ”
"We all work in Gangneung." She didn't answer in such detail, brushed it off, and asked instead, "Old man, are you here to play or run errands in Gangneung this time?" ”
Yan Lao squinted his eyes: "Half and half." ”
"If you're here to play, I'm going to be your guide."
"Haha, the tour guide doesn't need to, I often come to Jiangling, if you want, accompany my old man to have a meal another day."
Qiao Zhichu smiled politely: "Of course I do, it's a great honor." ”
The two chatted for a while, it was almost time for the trial, she looked at her watch twice, and Yan Lao understood: "If you have something, go first, I will stay here for a while, and I will have the opportunity to meet again." ”
Qiao Zhichu nodded and got up: "Okay, I owe you a meal and write it down." ”
Yan Lao smiled and nodded, watching her leave, he walked to the window, this window was facing the street, he clearly saw that she ran into the courthouse with an umbrella after going out, and her cloudy eyes flashed dark light for a moment.
Back in his seat, before Yan Lao finished drinking a cup of tea, the door of the box was opened again, and a person wearing a black raincoat came in, the raincoat on his body was completely soaked, dripping water on the ground bit by bit along the hem, until he entered the box, he took off the raincoat that was looking for a cover and handed it to the bodyguard on the side.
Yan Lao smiled: "You are a step late, there was a very interesting girl here to talk to me just now, I can introduce you if you come early." ”
The man's voice was low, and he spat out three words: "Not interested." ”
Yan Lao was a little helpless and shrugged: Okay, then let's talk about what you are interested in. ”
The man walked over and sat down in Qiao Zhichu's position just now, and at the same time, all the people in the room retreated, and the box door slowly closed, locking the dark waves of the two people inside.
***
There was an intermission in the court debate, Qiao Zhichu was drinking water while communicating with the client, and the mobile phone with mute in her pocket suddenly vibrated suddenly, prompting that she had received a message, she didn't care, and then received a second message, she had to take it out and take a look, this time, her whole face turned white.
When the client saw her appearance as if she was facing a great enemy, he couldn't help but get nervous: "Qiao, lawyer Qiao, what's wrong?" ”
Qiao Zhichu stood firm on the table, pursed his lips, and there was no blood in his lips for a moment.
She took a few quick breaths, and immediately called Chen Ming, asking him to come to the court within half an hour no matter what method she used, and finish the next lawsuit on her behalf.
Chen Ming was confused: "...... Okay, I'll be right over, but what's wrong with you, boss? ”
Qiao Zhichu didn't answer, didn't pay attention to the client, rudely and vigorously pushed away the passers-by who were in the way, and rushed out of the courthouse with red eyes.
Her current appearance makes people a little afraid to approach, and her lips, which always smile before speaking, are tightly pursed by her, probably because she used too much strength, her original miserable white lips are bloody, and the unbearable but unbearable look is a little hideous, like a fierce beast that is about to explode.
The light rain stopped, the air was slightly cool and damp, she rushed out of the courthouse, a cool breeze rushed into the tip of her nose, she couldn't help coughing violently, covered her nose and got into the car, inserted the car key into the hole to start, her footboard hung on the accelerator, held the steering wheel tightly, and gasped for a long time.
She clicked on her phone with trembling hands, and the two messages she received just now, one was a picture and the other was an address, she closed her eyes and immediately drove towards the address above.
She forced herself to compose, but she couldn't help the tears that kept falling out, some seeping into her lips, and she tasted the taste of her own tears, which were bitter.
