First Marriage Then Love 2

Chapter 13 part 2: Pitying each other

 Lin Li was stunned for a moment, but it took a while to regain her senses. She looked up and Zhou Han was already far away, and his figure was about to disappear behind his office door. 

She got out of the elevator, strode forward, and before he opened the door to enter his office, she shouted at his back, "Your vision is not very good either!" 

Mother Zhou told her a lot about his affairs, about how he insisted on breaking up with his family and friends for the sake of Xiaobin's mother, but in the end they still fell apart. And it seemed like when Xiaobin deliberately pushed An Ran the last time, it was under his mother's order. Such a person who will use his own son to do bad things should not be much better either!

Zhou Han heard the words, the hand holding the doorknob suddenly stopped, and his back looked a little stiff.

After finished speaking, Lin Li felt a little regretful; regretting why she put salt on other people's wounds, she clearly knew how painful and uncomfortable it was. She could see how much Zhou Han loved Xiaobin's mother in his heart, and his indifference and ignorance to Xiaobin was probably because of how much he loved and how much he hated at the same time.

Tightening the bag in her hand, Lin Li looked at his somewhat stiff back and opened her mouth to say something, but she didn't know how to say it for a while.

Just when Lin Li was struggling with what to say, Zhou Han suddenly spoke up, smiled lightly, and said, "It seems that we really have the same problem." Without turning around, he opened the door and entered the office.

Lin Li stood there in a daze, watching the door of the office open and close. Obviously he just said it with a smile, but she could clearly feel the helplessness and sadness in the voice, and suddenly felt inexplicable in her heart. There is an indescribable feeling of distress, and she doesn't know if it's for him, or because of his words, or because they have the same experience and the same pain.

Pitying each other with the same illness... Yes, it is just pity for the same illness, only with the same experience will lead to the same feelings.

If you really think about it, he is even worse than herself. He and Xiaobin's mother were childhood sweethearts. With his character, the reason why he would betray his relatives and be with her for the sake of love was probably long ago, his love was so deeply rooted that he couldn't extricate himself from it, so he had the determination to take her abroad. 

Love and feelings all take time to settle and accumulate. It's not groundless. It doesn't mean that if today you decided to like, then you can speak deeply love tomorrow.

If it took her ten years to love Cheng Xiang and regarded Cheng Xiang as her whole life, then he would have spent more than ten years to love a woman, at the expense of giving up all of himself for her. And if talking about hurt, it could be that he was hurt more deeply and more seriously than herself.

Lin Li sighed silently in her heart, turned back to her seat, turned on the computer, and put her bag in the drawer under the desk, her thoughts still echoed on the topic just now.

She wanted to check today's work, and when she opened her calendar, she remembered that she didn't come yesterday. As for today's work, she really couldn't keep up. Lin Li got up and went in to knock on the door to ask him about today's schedule; if there are any important documents for her to work on. 

She just walked to the door of the office, and when she was about to push the door to go in, she suddenly stopped. Remembering his lonely back just now, shook her head, turned around and went to the tea room, made him a cup of coffee, and proceed to knock on his door with a cup of coffee.

"Come in." Zhou Han's voice thought inside, his voice was still low and indifferent.

Lin Li pushed the door and went in, only to see Zhou Han was packing up the documents and putting them in his briefcase, looking like he was about to leave.

She came forward with coffee and asked, "Are you going out?"

Zhou Han looked up at her and replied softly, "Yeah." The movement of his hand continued, he packed up the documents and put them in his bag, and took the mobile phone to call Assistant Xu, "Assistant Xu, have you contacted the client?"

"En, I have contacted them, they agreed to change it to the morning." Assistant Xu answered neatly over the phone.

"Okay, wait for me in the parking lot, I'll come down immediately." Hanging up the phone, Zhou Han picked up his bag and was ready to leave.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Lin Li asked, "Then, do you have any documents to be sorted out in a hurry today?" Although she was a bit incompetent as a secretary and couldn't help much, she just sorted it out in a normal way. She is still very competent when it comes to documents and emails.

Zhou Han glanced at her, grabbed a document on the table, and threw it to her, saying, "Read this document for me and give me the brief summary of the content. In addition, print out the document in the mail and place it on my desk."

Lin Li nodded, took the document and followed him out of the office with coffee, but when he was about to enter the elevator, she suddenly remembered the sports meeting in Xiaobin's kindergarten in the afternoon, and hurriedly called out to him, "Wait a minute!"

Zhou Han turned back, looked at her and frowned slightly, and asked, "What else?"

Lin Li put down the coffee and documents on her desk, trotted to him, and said, "Well, when will you come back to the company?" She could see that although Xiaobin was afraid of him, he still liked him. Every time he came, the child's eyes would always lit up. If he didn't come in the afternoon, the child would probably be very disappointed.

Zhou Han frowned and looked at her steadily.

"Are you really not going to the afternoon sports meeting?" Lin Li looked at him and asked a little uncertainly. If he insisted on not going, then there was nothing she could do. After all, he didn't really listen to her.

Zhou Han looked at her for a while, and finally said nothing, turned around and entered the elevator.
