Chapter Ninety-One: Decadence
Zhu Shan hugged Ling Xiao and said aggrievedly, "I was suspended."
Ling Xiao was not surprised by this result, which can be inferred from the fact that she came to the lawsuit in the afternoon. Moreover, he believes that in the face of such a matter, suspension is the most appropriate way for employers to deal with it.
Ling Xiao: "I always say that I don't get enough sleep, so I should sleep well during this time."
What are these words?
Straight man!
Zhu Shan pressed Ling Xiao's shoulders and pushed him away, prompting him, "I want you to comfort me."
"Comfort?" Ling Xiao's tone was very slow, he stared at Zhu Shan, with a bad look in his eyes, "How can you comfort you?"
When these words fell, his gaze swept over her face inch by inch, as if with a spark, quite a prairie fire.
Zhu Shan stretched out her hand to cover his evil eyes and scolded him, "You are so annoying."
Ling Xiao was amused by her reaction, why is it so soft and glutinous? For a while, I couldn't tell if she was angry or coquettish.
He wanted to tease her even more, and when he thought about it, he reached into her clothes.
Zhu Shan hurriedly twisted her waist to dodge.
She was already sitting on his lap, her feet off the ground without support, and she felt like she was going to fall at any moment.
Zhu Shan hooked Ling Xiao's neck with one hand, and pressed his messy hand with the other: "I, I'm going to the toilet."
Ling Xiao stared at Zhu Shan, narrowing his eyes, full of suspicion.
Zhu Shan nodded: "I really want to go to the toilet."
Ling Xiao sneered and let her go.
Zhu Shan was free, got up and walked to the door, but was stopped by Ling Xiao.
He glanced sideways at the location of the break room, "There's a bathroom in there."
Have a bathroom?
Zhu Shan has been to the lounge several times, and she can see it all at a glance, and there is no bathroom.
That's... I tried to trick her into the break room again!!
When her thoughts came to this, Zhu Shan bit her lower lip and glared at Ling Xiao, and ran out: "I don't want to be here."
When Zhu Shan came back from going to the bathroom, Doreen was already tidying up her things and getting ready to leave work, and there were few staff left in the big office.
She pushed open the door of Ling Xiao's office, "Ling Xiao, when are you going to get off work?"
Ling Xiao raised his eyes and glanced at Zhu Shan, "Wait a minute."
After saying that, he bowed his head and continued to sign the document.
Zhu Shan walked over, walked around, and then stood next to the desk, leaning back against the edge of the desk and playing with her phone.
She opened the news APP, and sure enough, Zhuoyue was at the top of the news list again.
The official account "Yuhe Public Security" issued a police report, targeting Zhuo and millions of big Vs through the online platform to release "Where is the Axiom? What is the reason of heaven? The article refers to the questioning of the unfair trial of the Yuhe Intermediate People's Court, and officially launched an investigation.
Zhu Shan swiped her finger on the screen of her mobile phone and saw that the official accounts "Yuhe Procuratorate" and "Yuhe Court" had all transferred police reports.
Zhu Shan was looking at it seriously, when suddenly a hot breath came from her ears.
She turned her head, Ling Xiao didn't know when she came over, and now she was next to her, looking at her with her eyes down.
Before Zhu Shan could react, his waist was wrapped around him with one hand.
His palms were wide and his arms were strong, and Zhu Shan's toes left the ground as soon as he strained them.
She was carried to the break room.
Zhu Shan's head exploded with a "boom", and his little hand was afraid to hit his chest: "I don't want to be here!" Not here!"
She knew that Ling Xiao was "reckless", and the same was true when it came to affairs.
He always felt that she could bear what he gave, and he tempted her to bear it.
That's his innate domineering and unreasonable.
Zhu Shan actually likes it.
But this is the place of work, and Zhu Shan can't get over the hurdle in her heart.
Ling Xiao ignored her struggles and carried her to the closet very purposefully.
A vertical striped background wall next to it, he pushed it with his hand, and a bathroom that was not too large, but full of organs, appeared.
Zhu Shan's eyes froze, and she froze.
Until she stood on the ground with both feet
, they were still stunned to look at the bathroom that suddenly appeared.
Ling Xiao leaned lazily against the wardrobe, holding the invisible door with his left hand, as if waiting for her to understand.
But she did have a long reflex arc.
After a while, her eyelashes fluttered, she raised her hands and patted them, and her stiff expression was surprised: "Wow! Excellent! There really is a bathroom!"
After speaking, the corners of her mouth pulled down, turned around with her head down, and walked out.
Ling Xiao followed behind, his tone full of smiles: "Shanshan, what did you mean when you just said, 'You don't want to be here'?"
He obviously knew what she meant, and he came to joke.
Zhu Shan raised her hand to cover her hot ears, and her steps were so fast that she wanted to fly.
The two went downstairs and had dinner nearby.
During this period, Ling Xiao answered a phone call.
Zhu Shan watched him hang up the phone and clipped him with the last piece of squid fillet: "You still have a meeting at ten o'clock?"
"Hmm." Ling Xiao smiled with a smile in his eyebrows, picked up the squid fillet and fed it to Zhu Shan's small mouth, and ordered, "So after eating, you will go home."
"And when will you be back?"
"Not sure when the meeting will come back."
Isn't it possible that it will be late?
Zhu Shan paused, and looked at Ling Xiao, "Then are you still coming back?"
Ling Xiao said lightly, "Definitely back."
After eating, Ling Xiao accompanied Zhu Shan to stand on the side of the road and wait for the car.
Night falls, but the city is still lit up.
Perhaps because of the cold weather, there are not many pedestrians on the road, and they are in a hurry.
Zhu Shan pulled Ling Xiao's index finger and showed her gentleness and thoughtfulness: "If it's too late, you can sleep in the lounge, it's okay if I'm home alone."
Ling Xiao lowered his eyes and squinted at her, "What's the matter with you?"
Suddenly accused, Zhu Shan was a little confused, and opened her mouth slightly to exhale a ball of hot air: "Huh?"
"I'm married, and I won't let you go home?"
「...... Am I not considerate of you and don't want you to run back and forth?"
Her eyes were slightly lowered, her curly and curled eyelashes were printed into a small brush by the street lamp, and her red lips were slightly pursed, young and delicate.
Ling Xiao always felt that she hadn't grown up yet.
He raised his hand to twist her cheek, but his fingertips touched Bingbing's skin and stroked it instead.
One hand was not enough, and two hands held her little face.
The plump baby fat little face was "destroyed" by the big hands and deformed, and the facial features were squeezed close, but they were extremely soft and cute.
Ling Xiao rubbed his hand unceremoniously and made a very reasonable suggestion: "Why don't you sleep in the company lounge with me."
!!!
Zhu Shan's eyes widened suddenly, and the source of the street light was printed backwards, as bright as if the special effects had been turned on.
Then Ling Xiao's hand was pushed away, and she glared at her fiercely.
The online car-hailing car stopped right in front of Zhu Shan, and she didn't hesitate to get in the car.
Then, Ling Xiao saw the car window lowered, and Zhu Shan's little head was resting there, and her eyes were round: "Ling Xiao! It's not like I'm thinking! You just want to be here, don't think I don't know!"
Zhu Shan's thoughts jumped quickly, Ling Xiao knew.
Now, for example, he watched the taillights of the vehicle drive away, and only then did he figure out the meaning of what she had just said.
His eyebrows moved, the corners of his mouth slowly opened, and then he touched his nose, rarely feeling a little ashamed.
All right.
She was right.
He did want to.
******
Ling Xiao came back very late, and Zhu Shan was sleepy at the time, holding him before he could say a word, and his thoughts were broken again.
In the morning, Zhu Shan heard the sound of soft music, and she knew that Ling Xiao was about to get up.
She hugged him and didn't let go, and made a nasal voice.
Ling Xiao kissed the tip of her nose: "Obediently, let go."
She rubbed into his arms and whispered softly, "No, you came back so late, can't you stop running?"
?」
Ling Xiao didn't know how to tell her that running was not necessary, just to remind him that he had to wake up on a new day, and there was still something to do.
He looked at Zhu Shan for two seconds, grabbed her wrist, pulled it away easily, and then got up and grabbed the violent bear behind her back and stuffed it into her arms.
As soon as he got out of bed, Zhu Shan sat up with a "pout", the fluffy quilt was piled up around her waist, and the violent bear was also thrown aside.
Her hair covered her cheeks, her eyelids creased unsupported, and she whispered, "I'll go for a run with you."
Zhu Shan knew that Ling Xiao was busy, and she vaguely knew that something big would happen recently.
Her heart was uneasy, but she didn't want to show it and distract him.
She just wanted to spend more time with him and coax him to be happy.
But Ling Xiao was so busy that he didn't have time to let her accompany him and coax her.
Therefore, she is not at work now, but she can get up early to run with him.
She felt that there was nothing wrong with running in the morning, after all, she could sleep back later.
But she ignored a subjective factor: physical fitness.
After running half a lap, Zhu Shan couldn't do it, sitting on a row of chairs and shaking her hands, panting unevenly: "I... Rest... You... Well... Go on... Leave me alone......
Ling Xiao gave her a brain breakdown: "Don't sit here to rest, go up and make breakfast."
"Good... Okay......" She replied, but her body didn't intend to move at all.
Ling Xiao pulled her soft arm, dragged the person up, and pushed her in the direction of the unit building: "Go back quickly, you will catch a cold if you sit here."
Only then did Zhu Shan walk back slowly.
Zhu Shan is a very self-aware person, and after she gave up running, she began to make breakfast in different ways.
The rest of the time, she was not idle, to learn about what she missed, Ling Xiao's nearly six years.
On the Internet, she checked a lot of typical case studies of Ling Xiao's lawsuits, and also went to the hospital to visit the victims of the lawsuit that Ling Xiao was once responsible for, and also went to the police station to find Officer Song to learn about Ling Xiao's past.
From this, Zhu Shan found that Ling Xiao seemed to be a lone ranger.
His acquaintance with Officer Song was because Officer Song was accused of misconduct in the line of duty, which caused a stir on the Internet at that time, and Ling Xiao took the initiative to take his lawsuit.
Zhu Shan thought that Officer Song and Ling Xiao were very good friends, but Officer Song said that the two of them hadn't even eaten a meal, and they were more like "friends" at work.
Groping from Officer Song, Zhu Shan found Forensic Doctor Xu again.
Forensic doctor Xu is in his thirties and has a very liberal temperament.
He leaned against the door with an ashtray and smoked, and said Ling Xiao in a very strange tone: "He and I also sympathize with each other at work, in private... Tut! There is no private!"
Zhu Shan: "......"
Forensic Doctor Xu looked at Zhu Shan with a clear look: "You are Chagang, right?"
Zhu Shan shook her head innocently.
Forensic Doctor Xu smiled: "Don't worry, he doesn't smoke, drink, or club, saying that his wife doesn't like it!"
Zhu Shan: "......"
"I really didn't expect..." Forensic Doctor Xu lowered his head, turned the cigarette butt in the ashtray, and snorted, "He really has a wife."
Zhu Shan: "......"
After a period of understanding, Zhu Shan discovered that Ling Xiao was a workaholic, he had no friends in life, nor did he have any entertainment activities, and work was all he had.
He is not in vain in the legal world, but a real record. And these are all things that he has spent time and worked hard for.
Zhu Shan suddenly remembered the first night he was taken home, that home, so neat that there was no trace of life.
There is also the lounge of his office, which is going to live in the company!
Therefore, he has been working so hard all these years.
Zhu Shan knew that everyone's needs and pursuits were different, but she felt that Ling Xiao was not good like this.
It's even a bit "decadent".
The "decadence" of life.
