"I forgot." Ren Zixian didn't intend to say more.
Xu Xuanming glanced at the clothes she hadn't changed all night and said, "Get in the car, I'll take you back."
Ren Zixian did not refuse. Her condition was indeed not suitable for wandering on the road alone.
"I thought you would reject me," Xu Xuanming said half-jokingly, "After all, my feelings for you are not innocent."
"But we've already talked about it, haven't we?" Ren Zixian's tone was calm, as if he was talking about someone else's business.
"Actually, I've been thinking about it for a long time. I think my ex is my ex. If you two have broken up, then Mr. Lin should not prevent me from pursuing you," Xu Xuanming said in a clear tone, "What's more, I heard that Mr. Lin's marriage partner has returned to China. So he shouldn’t care about you.”
Ren Zixian moved his fingers involuntarily and pursed his lips: "Yeah."
I don't know what she was replying to, but Xu Xuanming breathed a sigh of relief. At least Ren Zixian didn't reject him.
Xu Xuanming drove Ren Zixian downstairs to the unit and opened the door for her: "Then we agreed, I will pick you up from the charity dinner hosted by the Tang family tomorrow night."
"I can go by myself." Ren Zixian remembered that Logan told her before that someone would send her an invitation.
"Silly girl, do you still want to take a taxi?" Xu Xuanming laughed, "Be obedient, I will pick you up when the time comes."
Ren Zixian nodded, thanked Xu Xuanming and entered the unit building.
…
Lin Qingsong's face was gloomy while he was sitting in the car. Wang Qi didn't dare to speak while driving.
Last night, Lin Qingsong uncharacteristically asked him to check Ren Zixian's position, and he felt something was wrong.
Sure enough, before he woke up this morning, Lin Qingsong called him to Jinhai.
"You drive me to the company." Lin Qingsong seemed to have stayed up all night. Even though he had taken a shower, his eyes were bloodshot and he looked exhausted.
Lin Qingsong changed out of yesterday's suit and paused before going out: "Let's go to Ren Zixian's first."
Wang Qi didn't dare to neglect. Based on the address he had written down before, he sent Lin Qingsong to the gate of the community where Ren Zixian temporarily rented a house.
However, as soon as it was delivered, I saw such a scene.
Ren Zixian got off Xu Xuanming's car. He looked a little tired and in good spirits. His eyes were a little red, as if he had cried.
Xu Xuanming's eyes were full of doting and joy. The two of them didn't know what they said. Finally, Ren Zixian nodded obediently before entering.
Xu Xuanming watched her with longing and sadness as she entered before driving away.
The whole night they were together.
Lin Qingsong pursed his lips tightly, his expression not wavering at all, but the documents in his hands were already tightly squeezed.
He was the only one who had trouble sleeping and eating, and he was the only one thinking about how to sue for peace.
Ren Zixian had already decided to leave him behind. He was with Xu Xuanming only two weeks after leaving him.
Wang Qi didn't dare to breathe. The low air pressure in the car almost squeezed all the air out.
He has been an assistant for so long, and he has only seen Lin Qingsong lose his temper twice, and both times were because of Ren Zixian.
Wang Qi felt that the sky was falling. How dare Ren Zixian?
He spent his days in the car like years, Lin Qingsong was like a time bomb, no one knew how he would get angry in this situation.
ten minutes later.
"Let's go." Lin Qingsong's voice was hoarse.
…
Ren Zixian entered the unit building and saw her neighbor opening the door and looking outside.
The head of the neighbor's household is an aunt in her fifties who usually works in the neighborhood committee.
She knows everything about the community, big and small.
Ren Zixian had just moved in and there was nothing prepared at home, so her aunt came to her door with newly made dumplings to feed her.
Seeing that she was a girl, I specially made dumplings stuffed with zucchini and eggs, and kept making her eat more.
"Are you back?" When Ren Zixian came home, her aunt immediately greeted her, "Didn't you see your friend?"
"friend?"
"Yes, last night he was waiting for you downstairs until midnight with flowers in his arms." Auntie's eyes were bright, as if she had seen the gossip, "If he hadn't just started knocking on your door, I would have called the police on him. Caught as a voyeur."
The aunt reached out and pointed, and then Ren Zixian saw the large bouquet of flowers placed at the door, with an invitation inside, which was an invitation to a charity dinner.
The aunt was still sighing: "You are so young. I think my old man also sent me flowers back then. My aunt was also a great beauty from all over the country. If he hadn't sent flowers for a month straight, I would have looked down on him."
The aunt's wife seemed to have heard the aunt's bragging and hurriedly asked the aunt to come back for breakfast.
"My old man is shy." Auntie patted Ren Zixian's shoulder. "Auntie is leaving. Remember to treat this young man well."
After the aunt closed the door, Ren Zixian picked up the flowers. The originally delicate and fiery red roses were already a little decadent after a night.
But it still smells fragrant, and there seems to be someone's perfume lingering on it.
Not many people knew that she lived here. Xu Xuanming had just sent her back, so it couldn't be him.
Ren Zixian took out the velvet jewelry clip from among the roses, and the familiar ring-shaped jade stone further confirmed her idea.
She gently put the tip of her nose close to the flowers, smelled the petals mixed with the scent of perfume, and sighed helplessly.
…
Wang Qi tried his best to instruct those who came into contact with Lin Qingsong today to work with caution.
But he still came up to Lin Qingsong to scold him with some short-sightedness.
"This data is calculated wrong." Lin Qingsong looked at the person standing in front of him expressionlessly, "This is the second time you have made such a mistake this month. If you can't do it, don't receive this salary. "
The business elites in suits and ties were sweating like rain: "I'm sorry, Mr. Lin, I'll take it and change the plan."
Lin Qingsong is a very perfect boss most of the time. He will not easily change his evaluation of his subordinates because of some innocuous mistakes.
Although it was inappropriate for subordinates to make mistakes, Lin Qingsong was indeed abnormal.
Since he picked up Lin Qingsong in the morning, it was now nine o'clock in the evening. Lin Qingsong kept thinking. If he was not reminded to eat, he would not eat.
It's like a machine that doesn't get tired.
"I..." Lin Qingsong waited until Wang Qi was the only one in the office, and then he said, "Didn't there be an exhibition meeting for the overseas artificial intelligence project? You can inform me and I will go tomorrow."
Wang Qi was stunned: "But because it conflicts with tomorrow's dinner time, we have already refused."
Lin Qingsong: "Notify the secretariat, contact my dad, and ask him to go to the Tang family's dinner."
Even Wang Qi was surprised at this moment: "But Director Lin rarely attends such occasions."
Lin Qingsong rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Go and get in touch. I won't be attending tomorrow's dinner. Just say that I'm on a temporary business trip."
In a flash, Wang Qi understood what Lin Qingsong was thinking. He didn't want to see Ren Zixian.
Wang Qi stood there at a loss, while Lin Qingsong leaned tiredly on the office chair: "Go ahead and book a flight for tonight and let someone go to Jinhai to pack your luggage."
Wang Qi didn't dare to say anything about the boss's affairs. Just as he was about to go out, Lin Qingsong's voice came: "When we sent someone to clean the house before, Ren... did she not take away anything?"
Wang Qi: "There are some, but they shouldn't be important. They are basically Xiaogui's toys. Do you need to find someone to send them to her? Keep them until she comes back to get them?"
Lin Qingsong pondered for a moment, as if he had finally made up his mind: "No need, just send it to Xiao Gui's usual beauty shop and ask the clerk to hand it over to her. And..."
Wang Qi listened to Lin Qingsong's request attentively.
Lin Qingsong said: "After I come back, I will go back to Lin Zhai temporarily and let people clean up Jin Hai."
Wang Qi keenly sensed something unusual, which meant that he wanted to completely cut off contact.
When Wang Qi gently closed the door, Lin Qingsong breathed a sigh of relief. His face was full of fatigue, and there was a vague pain in his stomach, as if it was on fire.
The cell phone rang, suddenly in the office.
Lin Qingsong took the phone and looked at it, his pupils shrank: "Ren Zixiao?"
Ren Zixian's voice was very soft, as if he was outside: "Yes, it's me. I'm downstairs in your company, are you in the company?"
Lin Qingsong almost jumped up and walked quickly to the window.
Lin's building was very tall, but Lin Qingsong could still clearly see Ren Zixian standing on the other side of the street talking on the phone.
It's really her!
"Why are you here?" Lin Qingsong blurted out. He reacted instantly and then changed his words: "Did I mean you came to find me?"
He asked as he put on his coat and walked out.
Ren Zixian: "I accidentally clicked on the message you sent before. I only saw your message this morning."
Hearing Ren Zixian's explanation, Lin Qingsong instantly softened his heart: "It's okay, it's okay, I'll be down right away!"
Lin Qingsong's steps were brisk, and for the first time, he felt Yunhu Buxi's joy, as if stars were dazzling on the desolate grassland.
Ren Zixian didn't intentionally leave him waiting all night, she just didn't see the news.
If you know you are at the door, even if you can't make it back, you will still reply to your message.
The professor surnamed Xu just sent Ren Zixian back, maybe he met him on the way.
Lin Qingsong suppressed his emotions to prevent them from spreading randomly, and quickened his pace to go downstairs to see Ren Zixian.
"Why are you here?" Lin Qingsong's eyes lit up.
"I'm here to return your things," Ren Zixian took out the jewelry folder, "I don't quite understand, this should be a very expensive thing, I shouldn't accept it. Also, thank you for the flowers, they are very beautiful."
Lin Qingsong's heart beat faster when he saw her take out the jewelry clip, fearing that she would say something harsh and then back out. Then he heard her say that it was just because it was too expensive, and he felt relieved unconsciously.
"I gave this to you, just take it, it's not worth anything." Lin Qingsong pushed it back gently. He didn't want to dwell on Jade and changed the subject, "Did you just come back from the laboratory? I'll take you back so late. , let’s go back to Jinhai, we can go to the charity dinner venue together tomorrow.”
Ren Zixian shook his head: "I'll just go back by myself. I'll go there by myself tomorrow."
Lin Qingsong woke up and could not push too hard. He added: "I... I will pass by Yan Da tomorrow. I will pick you up and go together. When will you go out?"
Ren Zixian seemed to be distracted. After hearing what he said, it took him a second or two to react and answer: "I might be a little later, about half past six."
"Then I'll pick you up then."
