Chapter 123: Silent Concern
Li Yunjian was stunned: "Do you still think that he loves Shuyun in his heart?" ”
Li Mengmeng looked very calm: "His love may have shifted, but after all, Sister Shuyun has been a husband and wife with him for more than ten years, and she is the mother of his son, these are the reasons why it is impossible for him to let go of Sister Shuyun." ”
"Mengmeng, are you afraid that he will transfer his love back to Shuyun?"
"No, I'm worried that he will be distracted at work and even make major mistakes."
Li Yunjian's face sank: "Speaking of which, you still don't want to let go of him." ”
Li Mengmeng smiled indifferently: "Dad, you suddenly want me to contact Brother Liu now, just to let him know everything that happened in our family through my mouth, right?" ”
"Yes." Li Yunjian nodded, "However, I don't want him to take the opportunity to show favor to Shuyun, but let him care about you." ”
Li Mengmeng was stunned: "Do you agree that I will be with him?" ”
"I have no right to stop the happiness of my precious daughter. Still, I'd like to see his attitude. ”
Li Mengmeng moistened her eyes again: "Dad's intentions, my daughter understands it, but my daughter must not let this matter bother him." He now needs to focus on scientific research. ”
Li Yunjian was stunned and said, "Don't you need to contact?" ”
"Of course you can, but you can't put a little pressure on him, all my daughter needs to give him is endless motivation."
Li Yunjian couldn't help but sigh: "Mengmeng, you have really grown up, and you are chivalrous." Daddy is so proud of you. ”
Li Mengmeng bowed her head and was silent, recalling that she hadn't contacted Liu Xiaoguang these days because she was accompanying her father, but the other party didn't even make a phone call, and she didn't care why she didn't contact him for a long time, which was really ruthless.
When she thought of this, she was so sad that she wanted to cry, but in front of her father, she had to swallow all the grievances in her stomach.
She actually thought wrong, Liu Xiaoguang didn't forget her, especially when she hadn't contacted him for several days, his heart was almost grassy, although the task in front of him was very heavy, but as a man, even in the busy work, he couldn't hide his emotions, especially when he was resting, it was impossible for him not to have Li Mengmeng's shadow in his mind.
Liu Xiaoguang has a little inferiority complex in front of Li Mengmeng after all, so he is ashamed to take the initiative to contact her, even if her figure occupies the high ground of his thoughts, he must also be patient, this is the reserved that a man should have.
Maybe she's tired of herself. In the end, he had to think so and give himself a reason to give up missing her. But can he really do it?
Late at night, Liu Xiaoguang lay on the bed in the dormitory, tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, so he had to sit up and be alone for a long time. At this time, he suddenly had a hint of foreboding - Meng Meng has not contacted him, will there be any accidents?
He suddenly felt a trace of fear in his heart, and impulsively grabbed the mobile phone next to his pillow, and dialed Li Mengmeng's number without hesitation-
However, his eager expression turned into a look of disappointment, and soon turned into a look of anxiety. It turned out that Li Mengmeng actually turned off her phone.
Since Cheng Xuedong had already left, he was the only one in this dormitory, so he turned on the lights and started smoking one by one to relieve his irritability. Soon, the entire dormitory was filled with smoke, and when it touched the smoke sensor in the hallway, the alarm sounded, and in the dead of night, it was particularly harsh.
Liu Xiaoguang was startled at first, and then realized that he was in trouble, and hurriedly opened the door and went out to 'extinguish the fire'.
"I'm sorry I just smoked a cigarette and disturbed everyone." Liu Xiaoguang explained loudly as he borrowed a chair to fiddle with the smoke sensors on the ceiling of the hallway.
Under the condition of his active 'extinguishing the fire', there was no trouble in the end, but from one of the doors came a disgruntled voice of a colleague: "Lao Liu, if you want to smoke, go to the terrace above, don't you know what unit we are?" ”
Liu Xiaoguang hurriedly responded: "Yes, yes, I know that fireworks are prohibited in the building, but I was negligent for a while." ”
Liu Xiaoguang waited for the smoke sensor to completely stop before returning to the dormitory.
However, he soon became uncomfortable. It turned out that the dormitory couldn't help but have a dull air, accompanied by a lot of pungent smoke. Even though he left all the windows open, he couldn't get the air flowing in the room right away.
Liu Xiaoguang couldn't wait, and he still wanted to smoke, so he simply walked out of the dormitory and ran up the stairs to the terrace.
At this time, the weather continued to get warmer, even if it was late at night, the temperature was still more than ten degrees above zero, and Liu Xiaoguang went to the terrace wearing a single clothes. He lit another cigarette, took a heavy puff, and then looked up at the lamplit spot in front of him. In that direction, there is Li Yunjian's home. He really couldn't imagine that Li Mengmeng would suddenly disappear from his world, what happened?
The melancholy and melancholy in his heart were difficult to dissipate, so he had to smoke desperately to relieve them, until the east showed the white of the fish's belly, and the half pack of cigarettes he carried with him was only an empty cigarette case.
Liu Xiaoguang thought that there were still heavy scientific research tasks today, so he quickly turned around and left the terrace. He needs a few hours of rest before the morning sun rises.
When he walked down the stairs to a corridor, with the help of the light of the corridor, he suddenly noticed a figure flashing around the corner, and his heart moved, it was so late, why was there still someone moving?
He was not absolutely sleepy at this time, so he increased his pace and chased in the direction of the shadow—
In less than half a minute, the figure regained his view. This time he saw it clearly, it was clearly Nan Binghuai's back.
Liu Xiaoguang was stunned at first, but after thinking about it carefully, this corridor is clearly connecting the studio and Nan Binghuai's office. And the other party is running in the direction of the office, could it be that Professor Nan has just returned from the studio?
"Professor Nan!"
Liu Xiaoguang shouted out when Nan Binghuai stretched out his hand to push the door open, and took advantage of the other party's look back to speed up his pace and lean forward.
Nan Binghuai looked surprised: "Xiao Liu, why did you appear here?" ”
"I couldn't sleep, I just went to the terrace to smoke, and I met you."
"Oh, you've been a big smoker lately, and your mouth smells of cigarettes, how can you do this?"
Liu Xiaoguang smiled: "I'm sorry, I'll try to smoke less in the future." ”
Nan Binghuai had a solemn expression: "I hope you can quit smoking." ”
"This... I'm afraid it can't be changed. However, I will not affect everyone. ”
Nan Binghuai first invited him into the office, and then asked tentatively: "Have you had something on your mind lately?" ”
Liu Xiaoguang hurriedly covered up: "No." ”
"If you don't, why do you go to the terrace to smoke in the middle of the night?"
"Oh, because I had some insomnia, and I ended up being addicted to smoking."
Nan Binghuai said solemnly: "Smoking in the middle of the night is nothing more than two situations - one is because you need to stay up late to work; The second is the anxiety in the heart. I guess you must be the latter, right? ”
Liu Xiaoguang couldn't help but scratch his head: "I... How can I feel anxious? ”
Nan Binghuai asked rhetorically: "Is Mengmeng okay lately?" ”
"Moe? I don't know..."
"You two haven't been in touch lately?"
Liu Xiaoguang nodded silently.
Nan Binghuai's eyes lit up: "I understand, you must be anxious for that girl, right?" ”
Liu Xiaoguang's expression was embarrassed: "You think too much, right?" ”
"It's not that I'm thinking too much, it's that the facts are already written on your face."
Liu Xiaoguang hurriedly defended: "Professor Nan, I am now devoting all my energy to our scientific research projects. ”
Nan Binghuai was a little dissatisfied: "Xiao Liu, don't hide it anymore." Don't I know you yet? In fact, we are also engaged in scientific research, and in addition to heavy work, we also need emotional enrichment. ”
Liu Xiaoguang bowed his head and was silent.
Nan Binghuai took a deep breath: "Why didn't you two get in touch?" ”
"She... Haven't called me lately. ”
"You didn't hit her either?"
"No... No. ”
Nan Binghuai showed a strange tone: "Why do you always need a girl to take the initiative as a big man?" Aren't you amazing? ”
Liu Xiaoguang hurriedly defended: "How dare I think like this? I think I'm already a little old man, and I don't have any money, how can I be qualified to take the initiative with a young girl? ”
"Alas, so you take the attitude of going with the flow and rely entirely on others to post it to you."
"I... I didn't think so. ”
"But that's what you did. If people don't contact you at the moment, you will appear anxious, but you don't want to think about why they don't take the initiative to contact you. ”
Liu Xiaoguang frowned slightly: "Could it be that she is too fresh for me?" ”
Nan Binghuai asked coldly: "Do you think Meng Meng is like a girl who thinks differently?" ”
"This..."
"Xiao Liu, have you thought about it, Mengmeng didn't take the initiative to contact you, could it be that she encountered something?"
Liu Xiaoguang was shocked, this was also the question he was worried about before, and he couldn't help but say: "Could it be that she is really in a situation?" ”
"So you thought about it too, why don't you call and ask?"
Liu Xiaoguang had no choice but to admit: "I called her in the middle of the night, but she turned off her phone." ”
Nan Binghuai suddenly realized: "So you were restless in the dormitory, so you went to the terrace to smoke and decompress." ”
Liu Xiaoguang was speechless to defend himself, so he had to nod silently.
Nan Binghuai's brows furrowed for a moment, and then he made a statement: "She may turn off the phone before going to bed." Don't panic first, wait until dawn to try to call her mobile phone, and if you can't get in touch, you can simply contact Shuyun again. ”
Liu Xiaoguang was curious: "Why do you want to contact Shuyun?" ”
"Because she is now Mengmeng's stepmother-to-be, she should know what is going on with Mengmeng at present."
Liu Xiaoguang's face was tangled for a moment, and he did not nod in agreement.
Nan Binghuai glanced at him: "Xiao Liu, is there anything you can't let go of Shuyun at this time?" ”
Liu Xiaoguang thought for a moment, and suddenly his heart moved: "Do you agree that I choose Mengmeng?" ”
