Chen Qudong called, and the first thing he asked was, "Are you free tomorrow?" Come have a meal with me. ”

"Huh?" Lin Qing was a little surprised.

Chen Qudong smiled on the phone: "It's been a long time, it's okay to have a meal together, right?" ”

Although this reason was reasonable, Lin Qing still felt unusual.

"Senior......" she hesitated, but still asked, "Do you need to find me for something?" ”

Chen Qudong pretended to be angry: "Do you have to have something to do when you eat?" ”

Lin Qing thought about it, this is the truth.

So he took it as a normal thing and made an appointment with Chen Qudong about the time and place.

"Tomorrow night at half past six, Quanshun Hotel." Lin Qing repeated it and wrote it down on the schedule management on his mobile phone.

Lu Xiao, who listened to the phone call while eating noodles on the side, said to the phone in Lin Qing's hand: "Who is it?" Want to treat you to dinner? ”

"Well, it's a senior." Lin Qing had already put away his mobile phone and grabbed his chopsticks when he spoke.

For some reason, when he talked to Chen Qudong again, Lin Qing no longer had the throbbing he once had. Even the feeling of a heartbeat is gone.

Maybe it's because she didn't meet each other, or because she's so hungry that all her energy is on the face.

Lin Qing thought so, but had another answer in his heart.

She thought of another person, only to realize that for a moment, it was the person who wanted to call, it was him.

Mu Li, what is he doing now?

The sharp-eyed Lu Xiao saw through Lin Qing's mind for a second, raised it to his mouth and put it down, and smiled evilly: "Hey, is it because it wasn't Mu Li who called, I'm very disappointed?" ”

Lin Qing picked up a few noodles and was a little distracted: "Well, a little disappointed." ”

Lu Xiao's movements suddenly stopped,

She used to feel that Lin Qing didn't have much affection for Mu Li, because Lin Qing never took the initiative to mention Mu Li when they chatted, and she would not exude the atmosphere of love like people in love.

But at this moment......

"You, really in love with Muli?" Lu Xiao asked with some surprise.

Hearing this, Lin Qing froze.

She couldn't answer that question.

However, Lu Xiao had already come to a conclusion from Lin Qing's reaction-

Lin Qing really loves Mu Li.

Lu Xiao comforted herself with ease, so that she would not feel unbalanced anymore.

Before returning home after eating, Lin Qing made a phone call home.

There was a constant beep on the phone, and no one answered.

Lin Qing's heart seemed to be falling downward, and she didn't call home until she got out of the car.

Seeing that the time was still early, Lin Qing got off the bus one stop in advance and turned around to the supermarket on the side. When I got home, I had an extra half-sized shopping bag with boxes of snacks and five or six lemons in it.

The refrigerator at home was still full, but the jar of lemon tea that had been made a while ago was much empty.

Lin Qing opened the door, and the house was dark.

"Mu Li?" She habitually called out Mu Li's name.

Before she finished speaking, she curled the corners of her mouth a little self-deprecatingly, exhaled deeply, and went to find the switch on the wall.

"You're back." In the darkness, a familiar voice sounded, faintly, but enough to soothe all the loss.

Lin Qing forgot to turn on the light, so he only stood at the entrance and opened his mouth in the dark: "Mu Li...... Is that you? ”

This question made Mu Li laugh, his eyes had long been accustomed to darkness, and he could see Lin Qing clearly, so he got up and walked up to her and rubbed her hair.

"Is it because you didn't turn on the lights, you're a little scared?" His gentle voice made Lin Qing's heart tremble.

No, she's not afraid.

Compared with the darkness, she was more afraid of not seeing Mu Li's loss.

However, she didn't say this sentence for a long time.

At this time, Mu Li took her hand and turned on the light in the living room.

When he turned on the light, he explained: "When I came back, it was still bright, and I fell asleep on the sofa. ”

I see, the phone call before that......

Lin Qing pursed his lips and shook his head: "I thought you suddenly disappeared again." ”

Suddenly gone?

Mu Li thought about it, what she said was probably that he was temporarily recalled to the army.

"Didn't I say that? In the future, when I encounter such a thing, I will definitely tell you. As he spoke, he stroked Lin Qing's cheek.

Her face was a little cold.

At this time, Mu Li realized that her face was not very good, her expression was sudden, and her thin lips were paler than usual.

Could it be the cause of the illness the day before?

Mu Li was worried, and reached out to touch Lin Qing's forehead.

Her forehead was a little cold, too.

"I'm fine." Lin Qing eliminated Mu Li's worries, lifted the shopping bag in his hand and shook it twice, making a relaxed gesture, "I bought lemons, how about I go and make lemon tea for you?" ”

After she finished speaking, she got out of Mu Li's palm and went to the kitchen.

Mu Li felt that she was really not normal these days.

Seeing Lin Qing busy in the kitchen, Mu Li walked behind her and hugged her. Those powerful arms wrapped around her waist and made her heart skip a beat.

Lin Qing reluctantly smiled: "Mu Li, I can't move." ”

Mu Li put his chin on her head: "Then take a break." ”

"But......" Lin Qing was about to speak, and the strength on his waist tightened again.

Mu Li's ......

Lin Qing couldn't figure out what Mu Li was thinking.

Yes, from all recent indications, it can be shown that she is in love with Mu Li.

But......

What about Mu Li?

Lin Qing couldn't think of this answer.

She didn't want to bother thinking about it.

As if as long as there were no answers, she didn't have to face reality.

"Lin Qing!" There was a hurried call in his ears, and Lin Qing came back to his senses.

Mu Li didn't know when he let go of her, and turned her body to face him at an angle.

Lin Qing sensed that something was wrong, so he looked down-

Her fingers were bleeding.

Probably thinking about it just now, I didn't notice that I was still cutting lemons in my hands, and I cut them on my fingers.

The wound was next to the stomach of the index finger, and the blood flowed in an instant, staining half of his hand with blood.

Mu Li's brows were furrowed very tightly, he didn't know what it was that made Lin Qing think so seriously.

After treating Lin Qing's wound, Mu Li said in a deep voice: "What were you thinking just now?" ”

Lin Qing whispered perfunctorily: "It's nothing, maybe it's because I'm a little tired from working overtime." ”

Mu Li grabbed Lin Qing's chin and forced her to look at herself: "Who are you thinking about?" ”

Lin Qing really didn't want to answer, and turned his head lightly: "I didn't think about anyone." ”

Mu Li's eyes dimmed for a moment, and then let go of his hand to let Lin Qing stay away from him, his tone was a little cold: "Lemon tea, wait until your wound is healed before doing it." ”

Lin Qing frowned, a little stubborn: "However, I want to do it well today." ”

She said, heading back to the kitchen, cleaning up the countertops and getting back to work.

This can of lemon tea takes longer than usual.

Mu Li leaned on the sofa, his expression was very indifferent.

Lin Qing's heart, who is he thinking about, what is he thinking?

At this time, Lin Qing's mobile phone on the coffee table rang, and Mu Li glanced at it, it was a call from a person named Lu Xiao.

He didn't want to answer, so he called Lin Qing but didn't respond.

Then the man called again, and Mu Li thought there was something urgent, so he answered the phone.

Before he could speak, the people over there gushed endlessly: "I suddenly thought of something, don't take the initiative to say anything about you going to see that senior tomorrow!" This man's jealousy is also very strong, and it would be bad if something happened then! ”

Lu Xiao was a little emotional on the phone, and his tone was much more exaggerated.

Mu Li listened to the completely unfamiliar high-octave female voice on the phone, and said in a cold voice: "I will tell her." ”

When the people over there heard Mu Li speak, they immediately stopped talking: "That, I'm sorry, I seem to have made a mistake......"

Lu Xiao laughed awkwardly twice with a smiling face, and hung up the phone decisively.

She lay on her bed and stroked her chest with palpitations: "God...... Nothing will happen, right? ”

If she had known, she wouldn't have been so kind to remind Lin Qing.

Mu Li stared at Lin Qing's mobile phone for a while, and then glanced at Lin Qing, who was still in the kitchen. When I swiped my eyes over my phone again, I saw the schedule.

Open it and check it, the first thing is-

Senior, half past six in the afternoon, Quanshun Hotel.

The woman named Lu Xiao just now didn't make the wrong call.

Mu Li is holding on to such a glimmer of hope. Although he didn't understand why he thought that.

Only now, it is not needed.

He put down Lin Qing's mobile phone in silence, and when Lin Qing came out of the kitchen in a few minutes, he might have made lemon tea.

Mu Li suddenly thought of what Lin Qing said before-

Senior, he likes lemon tea very much.

I see, so.

Mu Li curled the corners of his lips mockingly, picked up Lin Qing's mobile phone and threw it into her arms, and got up and walked towards the stairs when she was clueless.

After walking some distance, he said, "Someone called you just now." ”

"Who?" Lin Qing turned his head to look at him, but only saw Mu Li's back.

Mu Li didn't answer.

Watching Mu Li go upstairs, she felt that his back was a little lonely.

When he eats his new lemon tea tomorrow, he will be in a better mood. Lin Qing secretly thought in his heart, but he didn't care about the phone call that Mu Li mentioned.

Early the next morning, Lin Qing went to work as usual, Mu Li got up late today, and Lin Qing had just gone out when he woke up.

He casually made some breakfast, and when he opened the refrigerator to make a cup of lemon tea as usual, he saw the full can of lemon tea on the top of the refrigerator, which was made by Lin Qingxin.

There was also a note on it, with timeless and beautiful handwriting: "The taste of this can is not the same as the last time." ”

Mu Li unceremoniously tore off the note, took out the jar and poured out some.

It tasted good and he was satisfied.

He was about to sit down at the dining table, but he heard the door open the door, and a few seconds later, Lin Qing appeared at the door.

"That ......" Lin Qing stood in the hallway with a leather bag, sticking out his tongue at Muli, "Can you give me a ride?" ”

Seeing that Mu Li was holding the cup in his hand, Lin Qing curled the corners of his mouth with some joy.

She is dressed very fresh today, with a pair of light pink shoes, a waist-length dress, and long hair tied up behind her head, with a little bit of a little woman's charm and a little girl's innocence.

Today she ...... It's beautiful.

Mu Li's eyes narrowed, and a hint of danger flashed.

"What are you doing in this dress?"

Lin Qing looked down at himself, not quite understanding: "Go to work." ”
