delayed love

Chapter 36 She Doesn't Need Him Anymore

Lin Xi stood in front of the door and looked at Qin Yu from a distance, with a dull expression on his face.

She thought she was a smart person, but for some reason, when she heard Qin Yu's words, her brain suddenly short-circuited.

Chewing this sentence repeatedly, the sparks in his brain collided with each other, trying to reconnect, and analyze the deep meaning of his sentence as soon as possible.

What is he?good question.

Of course he is the elder brother of the family, otherwise what else could he be.

Qin Yu's eyes were deep, and there were emotions she couldn't understand hidden in the long and narrow eyes. He just looked at her quietly, not giving her a chance to escape.

Meeting his gaze, Lin Xi smiled, "If outsiders hear this, they will definitely think that I have done something 'rebellious' to third brother."

"Speaking of which, the third brother was so kind to me before, and my memory is not bad, so I don't remember anything."

A tsunami ushered in her heart, wantonly invading her territory, but Lin Xi remained calm.

Her tone was indifferent, as if she was telling someone else's story, "Especially what happened that year, I will never forget everything."

"So if the third brother needs me to do something in the future, just ask."

Lin Xi had to admit that Qin Yu was really good to her, and she never denied it.Otherwise, she would not have thought affectionately that he also liked her.

Hearing this, the man sitting on the chair raised the corners of his lips and smiled with an unknown meaning.Lin Xi didn't know what he was laughing at. Seeing that he wouldn't leave, she stopped urging her and said frankly:
"However, in the future, the third brother really doesn't have to take care of me like before. I can live independently now. I have the ability to distinguish between right and wrong, and I have the ability to bear the consequences."

"Third brother, you can't keep treating me like the kid you were before, who would just hide behind you when things go wrong."

Yes, she doesn't need him anymore.

-

Back at the hotel, Lin Xi lay on the bed and let out a long sigh of relief.

Her brain has resumed functioning, but she doesn't want to think about the specific meaning of Qin Yu's words.

Whatever he meant, she didn't want to know.

One problem will always implicate another or even many problems. She can't let herself fall into a vicious circle again, and she doesn't know how long it will take to get out of it.

waste time.

Lin Xi didn't drink less wine in the first half of the day, and she was a little dizzy on the way back.Not long after lying on the bed, sleepiness hit her. She hugged the quilt and gradually fell asleep, even forgetting to take off the high heels on her feet.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Xi heard a knock on the door in his sleep, and it became more and more clear.She slowly opened her eyes, subconsciously thinking that it was already the next morning.

Has she been asleep for so long?

After staring at the time on the phone for a while, Lin Xi was sure that it was ten o'clock in the evening, not ten o'clock in the morning...

The knock on the door continued, and she got up from the bed irritably, forgetting that she was still wearing high heels, and twisted her right foot when she stood up.

"Hiss..." At this moment, Lin Xi woke up completely from a doze.

-

The hotel staff waited and waited at the door, and finally the closed door was opened from the inside.

"Miss Lin..."

Seeing Lin Xi's unfriendly eyes, the staff was taken aback and immediately silenced.

"what's up?"

"Yes, it is like this. A gentleman asked the hotel to bring you a hangover soup, and this gentleman gave it to you, saying that it was something you left behind."

The staff handed her the paper bag on the dining car, Lin Xi stared at it for a moment, then reached out to take it, then moved aside to let the other party bring in the hangover soup.

Opening the bag, Lin Xi saw a Richard Mille crystal diamond watch.

She touched her wrist, only to realize that her watch was missing.

After a careful meeting, she remembered that during the first round of drinking, she took off her watch and put it on the table.Originally, the bracelet was also taken off, but after thinking about it, I put it back on.

Because of Qin Yu, she left in a hurry and didn't notice that she didn't take her watch.

"Where is the person who delivered the things?" Lin Xi stopped the staff who were about to leave.

"The gentleman? He's gone back to his room."

"He lives here too?" What on earth is Qin Yu going to do?

"Yes." The staff realized that their relationship was not simple, so they didn't hide it: "Mr. Qin lives upstairs from you."

"……Okay, thank you."

-

Back in the room, Lin Xi finished drinking the hangover soup, sat down on the sofa and kicked off her high heels.She bent down and rubbed her ankle. She didn't feel anything, but it hurt a little when she walked.

She just wanted to rest now, she didn't take this matter to heart, took a quick shower, took off her makeup and fell asleep.

When Lin Xi woke up the next morning, her ankle was already swollen.

The heels of the high heels she wore last night were not very high.I tried to move, but fortunately, no bones were hurt.

After calling the front desk, the hotel delivered ice packs and sprays non-stop, and asked if she needed to be sent to the hospital.

"No, little problem."

After they left, Lin Xi applied ice for a while, and then sprayed it.

Today's plan to go out is completely ruined.

She just said that she didn't like to go out, Cheng Sifei asked her to stay here for a walk, now it's all right, there is no need to go out at all.

After a simple lunch in the room, Lin Xi changed the high-speed rail ticket for the return trip.

The assistant returned to work in Beijing early this morning. She originally planned to leave tonight, but now she can only stay for one more day.

-

Beijing City, Feiyun Research and Development Unit.

Lin Xi is not here now, Cheng Si can only find Chen Gong, who is the second in command, for a meeting.

In the middle of the report, Chen Gong's mobile phone on the table suddenly rang.

At the main seat, Cheng Si clicked his pen and tapped the table, "What's the matter with you?"

Chen Gong explained that he forgot.

For the temporary meeting, he hurried over from the laboratory and came with the materials.In addition to the usual working hours, no one called him, so he forgot about his mobile phone.

He motioned to the assistant to turn off the phone for himself first.

The assistant glanced at the caller ID and asked for instructions: "It's Gong Lin's call, do you still want to hang up?"

Chen Gong hummed strangely, but did not answer.Instead, he looked at Cheng Si and asked tentatively, "Mr. Cheng, do you still want to hang up?"

It's up to Cheng Si to decide.

Sure enough, Cheng Si pointed to his cell phone with a pen, motioning for him to pick it up.

Chen Gong trotted back, and heard Cheng Si say a second before answering the phone: "Turn on the hands-free."

"okay!"

"Hey, hey, hey, Mr. Lin is me, are you still in Huaicheng?"

"Yes, I'm not going back tonight, and I'll take another day off. If you have any questions at work, let's call."

"Do you want to stay in Huai City for one more day?"

Lin Xi hummed, and explained: "There was a little accident, and I can't go back today."

Hearing this, Cheng Si, who was eavesdropping, picked up a pen and threw it at Chen Gong.The latter looked at him blankly.
