"Thunder is fine, he just wants to ask you out to dinner."

"Dating me? He is becoming more and more inexplicable, and he asks me out...... Why did you call you?"

Looking at the snow-white steam coming out of the steamer, Ah was silent.

"When is he going to make an appointment?"

"Tomorrow afternoon."

"Of course not, tomorrow afternoon, didn't we say we'd go to the welfare home together?"

"But I've already promised it for you."

Ling Lian was stunned for a moment, then displeased: "Why did you agree for me? Ah, we said okay, you won't make decisions for me."

"This is the last time." Ah actually looked at the watch in his hand and lifted the lid of the steamer on time.

"What do you mean by the last time?" Ling Lian looked at him, "You want to go?"

"Yes." He skillfully added salt and soy sauce to the egg custard to taste, and according to Ling Lian's preference, he lit two drops of sesame oil, "Originally, the task given to me by Mr. Xu was to help you adapt to the life of returning to the Xu family. Now that you're all used to it, I'm done."

The egg custard was steamed tender and fragrant, he stuffed the bowl into Ling Lian's hand, poured water himself, and brushed the pot.

"Did my brother tell you to go back?"

"It's not."

"You're leaving?"

"Hmm."

"Why?"

"No why, I have to go."

"What a must! Do you want to go back to my brother?" Ling Lian put the bowl on the cooking table with a "dang" sound, "All the things around my brother are handled by Ah Cheng, even if you are excellent, will there be a place for you when you go back?"

"Even if I start from scratch, I must leave you."

"Why?" In the past two years, she has become accustomed to Ah Jing being by her side.

He takes care of everything for her, puts her first in everything, and no matter what he does, he always makes her feel extra down-to-earth and reliable.

"Then you said, Thunder asked you out, why did you call me?" After he finished washing, he slowly wiped the water droplets off the table.

"He—he's inexplicable."

"It's not."

It was almost dawn, it was pitch black outside the window, and even the neon signs in the city were turned off, except for the sanitation trucks, which spun and swept away the dust on the ground and sprinkled a cloud of water.

"Our relationship is too close in the eyes of outsiders."

"Our relationship is inherently close." He was sent by her brother to help her and take care of her.

"But this kind of proximity is not normal, and it is not good for you."

"How is it not normal? You are very capable of doing things, can I trust you to be at fault?"

Ling Lian stubbornly retorted. She actually wanted Ah Jing to stay, but whether it was Xu Jiangtian or Ah Jing, no one had handed her how to control it. Faced with this subordinate who insisted on leaving, she didn't know what else she could do to keep her.

"And you say it's not good for me, so will you be good for me when you're gone now? How many things I have entrusted to you to do, even if I transfer a person as capable and careful as you now, it will take me time to run in with him......

"I'll take care of the handover, and I won't cause any trouble in your life."

In a word, Ling Lian's mouth was blocked.

The room was quiet for a while.

"That is, you are determined to leave?"

"Hmm."

Ling Lian looked at him.

I don't know how long I've been watching, but it's probably ...... She finally regained the hard armor she had worn when she first met him.

Then put this cold armor on himself again.

The night was as cold as water, and her voice was as cold as water: "Then don't come back, Fourth Brother Qin."

Qin Jing's footsteps slowly retreated until the door slammed shut.

Goodbye, Ling Lian.
