Chapter 78: He's Best Friend's Lover
When Lin Qing woke up from his dream, the hour hand had just jumped to the six-level position.
She walked over to the dresser and looked in the mirrorβ
Both eyes were swollen like walnuts.
Thinking back to the senior's confession last night, Lin Qing felt like a dream.
Not true, it shouldn't.
She dedicated her entire youth to her seniors, and in the end, when she let go, the other party tried to hold on tightly.
However, if you don't love, you don't love.
After washing her face, Lin Qing propped her hands on the edge of the washbasin, and the cold marble made her feel a chill.
Although it was an early summer morning.
At this time, she thought of the last words that her senior said to her, and she couldn't help but sink her heart.
There is still some time before Mu Li returns.
I remember that Mu Li called during the day yesterday and said that he would be very busy today.
But she couldn't help it, and in this breezy and cool morning, she dialed Mu Li's mobile phone.
"Hello?" After a dozen rings, it was connected.
It sounds like Mu Li got up early.
"Mu Li......" Lin Qing's voice was still a little sleepy, and she said in a low voice, "I miss you." β
Mu Li chuckled over there: "Fool." I'll be back in a few days. β
"Really?" Lin Qing immediately became completely awake and almost shouted, "Great! β
Probably because Mu Li's ears hurt from the shock, he moved away from his phone, and his voice became quieter: "Even so, you don't have to be so excited." β
Lin Qing snorted: "I'm not excited, I'm just a little happy." β
"When I go back, will I go with you for the weekend?" Mu Li still remembered Lin Qing's previous words.
Lin Qing nodded again and again: "Okay!" β
Her eyes were bent into a slit with joy.
If Mu Li was right in front of him, he would definitely rub his hair and say foolishness. Lin Qing thought secretly.
At this time, Mu Li's voice sank: "It's still early, you can sleep for a while." I still have a mission, and I'll call you when it's over. β
After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone in a hurry.
Listening to the busy sound on the mobile phone, Lin Qing's longing was already on his face.
"In a few days......" she repeated Mu Li's words, and her heart warmed.
Only Mu Li can make her feel like this.
But on the senior's side, what should I do?
In the afternoon, Chen Qudong asked Lin Qing to meet again.
They met in a cafΓ© where the atmosphere was so good that they could smell the strong aroma of coffee as soon as they entered.
The retro dΓ©cor also adds a bit of atmosphere.
As soon as he saw Lin Qing, Chen Qudong first said sorry: "I'm sorry, I scared you yesterday, right?" β
Lin Qing shook his head.
At this moment, a tall, thin boy who looked like a clerk stepped forward and handed them a menu.
Chen Qudong handed it to Lin Qing and motioned for her to come first.
As soon as Lin Qingtou came back, he didn't know what was inside, so he turned it over intently.
After a while, the clerk politely asked, "Excuse me, do you need to order now?" β
Lin Qing pointed to one of them: "I want this." β
The clerk looked in the direction of her finger and repeated, "A latte, huh?" β
Lin Qing responded.
The clerk turned to Chen Qudong again.
Before the clerk could ask, Chen Qudong preemptively said, "It's the same as her." β
So the clerk put the menu away: "Two lattes, please wait a moment." β
Seeing that Chen Qudong was the same as the one he chose, Lin Qing lowered his eyes.
After the clerk left, Chen Qudong explained his intentions: "I want to solemnly apologize to you about yesterday's incident. β
Lin Qing felt that Chen Qudong's words were a bit serious, and was about to wave his hand, but heard him continue:
"However, my feelings for you will not change. When I say I love you, I love you. It's true that I want you to give me a chance. I still hope you think about it. β
Unexpectedly, the senior did not give up, but went one step further.
Lin Qing had no choice but to say: "But senior, I really can't accept your feelings." Like I said yesterday, I love him and just want to be with him. β
It's obviously a fruitless relationship, but it's more persistent than ever.
Lin Qing really didn't understand why there were so many stupid people in the world.
And she used to be, wasn't she one of them?
She couldn't help but smile.
Chen Qudong suddenly asked, "Then have you thought about it, do you want to be with you all the time?" β
Lin Qing put away his smile: "This is our own business, senior...... Don't bother. β
Chen Qudong said with disdain: "It's not that I bother, but I don't want to see you hurt." β
"What do you mean by that?" Lin Qing was puzzled.
Chen Qudong explained: "If it weren't for this incident, I wouldn't have shown my feelings to you and made you entangled." It's just that I really can't watch you being deceived, and I keep protecting him. β
These words made Lin Qing more and more confused.
"What the hell are you trying to say?"
Chen Qudong sighed: "Mu Li him, I don't love you at all." β
"How do you know?" Lin Qing questioned.
Chen Qudong continued: "Not only does he not love you, but he also loves others. That person is your best friend, Xu Yuan. β
Lin Qing coldly interrupted Chen Qudong: "This is impossible. β
Chen Qudong continued: "You should know that Xu Yuan had a lover in college, and the two loved each other very much, but in the end Xu Yuan left that person. That lover is Mu Li. β
Lin Qing knew about this.
That lover was Mu Li, but she didn't know it at all.
At this time, she suddenly remembered the unusual atmosphere between Mu Li and Xu Yuan when they first met at the airport.
It's a little embarrassing, and it's a little weird.
Could it be that Chen Qudong said ......
It's true?
Lin Qing didn't want to believe it.
"Don't lie to me anymore." Lin Qing was silent for a moment and said, "If they were together in college, why did they never say it to me?" β
Chen Qudong replied thoughtfully: "Or, they don't want you to know." That way, they don't have to worry about you being suspicious, on the surface the two people don't intersect, but in fact ......"
He dragged out his accent and glanced at Lin Qing deeply.
Lin Qing's face was already a little pale.
Believe it or not, at this moment, her body was stiff and cold.
"Actually, they've been in touch all the time." Chen Qudong finished speaking, observing Lin Qing's expression.
What he said was undoubted, but it made Lin Qing even more suspicious.
"Senior, since they want to hide it from me, how do you know?" Lin Qing thought that he had exposed Chen Qudong's lies.
But her voice was shaking.
Chen Qudong did not answer positively: "Don't you think it's a coincidence that they went out at the same time?" I think it was Mu Li who took Xu Yuan out and relived the old relationship by the way. β
Her heart was cold for a moment.
"Impossible!" She retorted coldly.
Even if they know each other, even if they have been together......
No way!
Chen Qudong calmly took out his mobile phone, flipped out a photo and handed it to Lin Qing: "Take a look for yourself." β
Lin Qing looked at the photo and recognized Xu Yuan at first sight.
The camera in her arm is very close, and it should be the angle of the selfie.
And next to Xu Yuan, the man who lowered his head and looked away was Mu Li.
Xu Yuan smiled brightly and sweetly, and behind them, there was a blooming gardenia.
Dazzling.
Looking away, Lin Qing's hands on his sides trembled slightly.
At this time, the clerk brought up the coffee they ordered and put one of the cups in front of Lin Qing.
"Please take your time." The clerk smiled and walked away.
Lin Qing raised his hand and wanted to take a sip of coffee.
The hand holding the cup did not exert any strength.
She froze there, forcing herself to look at the photo again, thinking she could find some flaws.
However, she saw the time attached to the photograph.
It was an hour ago.
When she got up this morning, she also called Mu Li.
Mu Li said on the phone that there was a task to be carried out.
Therefore, Lin Qing wanted to believe that he was actually with Xu Yuan......
No way.
Lin Qing returned the phone to Chen Qudong and said coldly: "I want to make me believe in a photo, senior, you are too underestimate me." β
A photo like this can be combined with any person.
She pretended to be calm, but her heart was filled with coolness.
"Lin Qing, don't you understand?" Chen Qudong frowned, "It's not that I underestimate you, it's not that I'm lying to you, it's Mu Li, he's been deceiving you!" If he is already over with Xu Yuan, why don't he tell you that he is still secretly meeting with Xu Yuan now and using work as an excuse! β
Chen Qudong couldn't help but be indignant.
Their dispute has attracted the attention of some people around them.
"That's enough." Lin Qing stopped coldly.
Her brow furrowed.
Chen Qudong gushed: "Lin Qing, you don't want to think about it, how long have you and Mu Li known each other?" That's a few months at most. You got married after only one meeting, and now it's only been a few months, how can you be so sure that he is in love with you?
"Besides, how long has he known Xu Yuan? Not only did they know each other, but they loved each other. Now that you have seen each other again, how can you guarantee that Mu Li will not rekindle his old feelings for Xu Yuan! β
Chen Qudong said it right.
Lin Qing was silent.
There is no doubt that Chen Qudong's words poked Lin Qing's sore spot.
Seeing that she was silent, Chen Qudong said again: "If you don't believe it, ask Mu Li where he is." But he'll probably tell you that he's on a mission right now and he's busy. β
As he spoke, he pushed his phone in front of Lin Qing.
Lin Qing stared at his phone and didn't move.
She didn't dare to confirm it, and she didn't want to.
"I'll only say the last sentence," Chen Qudong opened again, "The night before Xu Yuan's business trip, Mu Li didn't go home, right?" I heard that Mu Li waited at her door all night. β
With a snap, Lin Qing slammed the coffee cup on the table.
"If that's what you're looking for today, senior, I'm sorry, I don't think there's any point." Lin Qing didn't notice that the coffee had spilled all over her.
On the arms, on the hands, on the clothes, everywhere.
Chen Qudong hurriedly pulled out the paper and leaned over to help Lin Qing wipe it, but was stopped by Lin Qing.
"These unnecessary concerns, please don't do it in the future." Lin Qing's eyes were cold, "I still have something to do, so I'll go first." β
With that, she strode out of the cafΓ©.
Only the shocked customers around were left, and Chen Qudong who was sitting in his seat.
Lin Qing didn't have the heart to think about it anymore, and hurried home.
The moment he entered the door, Lin Qing fell to the ground.
She trembled and took out her mobile phone from her bag, and called Mu Li without caring about her right foot.
She remembered the scene every time Mu Li saw Xu Yuan, and what Mu Li said about Xu Yuan.
bit by bit, it was like a heavy mountain pressing on Lin Qing's heart.
"Toot-toot-toot-" The call went through, but no one answered.
