Phew, so tired. When she was done with the house cleaning, she looked at the time and realized that it was already past noon. However, looking at the bright interior of the house, Luoli still felt a sense of accomplishment. Although it was the weekend, she woke up early in the morning. She had taken her medicine last night and forced herself to sleep. She woke up before dawn, so she decided to find something to do.
More than an hour ago, Zhihan called and said that she wanted to have dinner with Chen Haiming. She asked her to come along and have a big meal together. Luoli wisely refused. If she were to be the third wheel, it would be strange if Chen Haiming did not hate her to death. What if he used his power to take revenge on her personal grudge and caused her trouble at work? The gains would not make up for the losses. Although Tang Muchen was helping her, it was better not to use this kind of unclear privilege. Otherwise, she would be criticized and she would feel uncomfortable.
Luoli rested for a while and decided to make herself a bowl of noodles to solve the problem of food and clothing. When the noodles were half-cooked, Tang Muchen called and told her something earth-shattering. I'm going to Japan for a business trip next Tuesday to attend an annual three-day photography conference! Even in her dreams, she knew that this was not a good thing that fell from the sky. It must be Tang Muchen's doing. This was great. She, a " newcomer " who had only been in the company for more than two years, was actually hit by such a big pie. It was really shocking.
Helplessly looking at the snow-white ceiling, Luoli began to mock herself. Alright, she would just treat it as a talent that was valued by the company. Otherwise, she would feel guilty.
After complaining to Tang Muchen for a while, Luoli suddenly screamed. My noodles! He threw away his phone and ran to the kitchen to take a look. The noodles had turned into paste.
Luoli looked sadly at the noodles that were so mushy that they could be used as paste. She cursed Tang Muchen in her heart a million times. He could have said anything but gave her such explosive news and ruined her lunch! The paste was too much for her to eat, so she had to pour it again. It was said that wasting was a crime, and she had really committed a crime today.
He changed the pot of water and continued to cook. Luoli stared at the fire while frying the eggs. It did not take long for them to be ready. In fact, she was just lazy. After all, she had lived alone for many years, so cooking was definitely not a big problem. Moreover, when her mother was alive, she always cooked. However, now that she was alone, it was quite troublesome to cook, so most of the time, she just ordered takeout to eat.
Just as he turned off the fire, the doorbell rang. Luo Li brought lunch to the table and opened the door. It was Mo Ying.
"Why are you here?" Luoli looked at her happily." No training today?”
"Yes, I'm resting today." Mo Ying answered and went into the house to sniff." You haven't eaten yet? It smells so good."
"Yeah, I just made some noodles. Do you want to eat together?”
"You can eat. I've already eaten.”Mo Ying followed her to the dining table and his eyes lit up." Yo, you look good."”
"Really?" Luoli was amused and picked up the noodles." Try it and see if it's good to look at but not good to eat."”
"Hehe, I never lie." Mo Ying also smiled." You haven't eaten yet. Hurry up and eat. The weather will get cold soon."”
"Just one bite. Try my cooking.”Luo Li brought her chopsticks closer to Mo Ying.
Mo Ying had a helpless expression as he opened his mouth and sucked the noodles into his mouth.
"Not bad, it's delicious." Mo Ying chewed and nodded in approval.
"Haha, I like hearing you praise people. You're so honest.”Luoli smiled smugly and began to eat her noodles.
This girl was always so cute. Mo Ying looked at Luoli, his heart filled with happiness.
" Right." Luo Li swallowed the food in her mouth." You shouldn't be going to Blues anymore, right?”
"Yes, he resigned and was fined for breaching the contract.”Mo Ying smiled, his expression light and indifferent.
"How long have you signed it? The penalty for breaching the contract is a lot, right?"
"I signed for a year, but I only stayed for two months.”Mo Ying shrugged." I can't help it. There are gains and losses. Besides, the company helped me pay a portion of the penalty fee, so it's actually fine.”
" That's true." Luoli nodded." How long will the training take?" Last time, I was too anxious to ask you."
"Three months. After that, they will select singers who meet their requirements and officially sign the contract.”
"Work hard, you definitely won't have any problems.”
"Just try your best. As for the result, it's up to fate.”Mo Ying raised his thick eyebrows as if he didn't take it to heart.
"You're so calm." Luoli praised him." Sit down first. I'll go wash the dishes."”
After washing the dishes, Mo Ying entered the kitchen and held up Luoli's phone.""It's for you."
"Yes, alright." Luoli wiped her hands dry and took a look at the caller ID. She frowned. Although there was no caller ID, she could still recognize the number at a glance.
Just as she was hesitating whether to accept it or not, Mo Ying looked at her in confusion and asked,""Why aren't you picking up? Is it a harassing call?"
"Heh, I guess so." Luoli gave her an uncomfortable smile and paused for a moment before picking up.
"Ah Li, why did you take so long to answer the phone?”Shang Yuqin's voice sounded like he was in a good mood. It seemed like what happened last night didn't affect him much.
"What's the matter?" Luoli did not answer his question. Her tone was not friendly as she frowned and asked impatiently.
"Do you have time in the afternoon? Shall we go to the amusement park?" Shang Yuqin did not seem to hear Luoli's dissatisfaction and continued to speak excitedly.
"Amusement park?" Luoli was really impressed by this man. His skin was thicker than the walls of Tianamen." Do you think I'm underage?”
Mo Ying also frowned when he heard that. He felt a little uneasy. She seemed to have seen that number before, but she couldn't remember where.
"It's good to look for underage girls. Maintaining a young mentality is good for your health.”Shang Yuqin continued to lobby, it seemed that he would not stop until he achieved his goal.
"Are you saying that I'm very old?" Luoli picked his words.
"I'm innocent. I just hope that you'll always be like this.”Men always coaxed women one after another. It should be considered instinctive, right?
"I have a guest now." Luo Li rolled her eyes and continued to shirk.
" It's Tang Muchen?!" When Shang Yuqin heard this, his voice immediately became higher," Didn't you promise to give me three days? How can you go back on your word?"
" Boring." Luo Li rolled her eyes and reprimanded him." You have no right to interfere with my friendships, do you?”
"Are you coming in the afternoon?" Calm down, calm down. Don't rush. Take it slow. Tang Muchen is nothing. Shang Yuqin muttered in his heart.
"Alright, I'll go." Luoli thought about it and agreed. Let's see what kind of tricks you're up to.
"I'll go pick you up." Shang Yuqin knew how to strike while the iron was hot.
Stunned for a moment, Luoli recalled yesterday's 'home', and the corners of her lips twitched."Alright, four o'clock."
After hanging up the phone, he exhaled and turned around to see Mo Ying leaning against the kitchen door. He looked worried and a little unhappy.
"What's wrong? Are you angry?" Luoli scratched her head and apologized," I'm sorry, I have to settle some matters, so this afternoon…"
"Don't force yourself if you don't like it.”Like an adult educating a child, Mo Ying crossed his arms and looked down at her. She was half a head longer than Luoli.
"There are some things that you can't ignore just because you don't like them. If you don't solve it, it will always be there, like a thorn in your heart. It hurts when you think about it.”
"May I know what it is?" Mo Ying did not like Luoli not wanting to tell her anything. This feeling was very bad, as if she was an outsider and had no right to know anything. But in fact, she was indeed just an outsider. What right did she have to ask?
Her sharp gaze instantly turned gloomy. In the end, she hated their current lukewarm relationship. It seemed intimate, but in reality, they were far apart.
"The story is very long. I'm afraid you won't have the patience to listen.”Luoli did not notice her disappointment and only replied matter-of-factly. To be honest, she wasn't so resistant to the past anymore. However, no one mentioned it, and she wouldn't take the initiative to say it. Who would want to publicize their failed past?
" As long as you're willing to tell me," Mo Ying looked at her seriously, but he did not dare to show any other emotions." I'll be a good listener."”
"Ha, I believe you." Luoli nodded and did not think too much about it." I'll tell you properly when I return from my business trip."”
"Business trip?" Mo Ying was stunned. When did this happen?
"Yes, you just received the notice before you came. You're going to Japan for three days.”Luoli cleaned up the dining table and went to brew a pot of tea.
"When are you leaving?"
"Next Tuesday, which is the day after tomorrow." Luoli poured a cup for Mo Ying." Chenpi can prevent colds and is also very good for the lungs."”
"You don't seem to be willing to go." Mo Ying nodded, took a sip, and asked.
"It's not that I'm unwilling. It's Japan. It's just that I feel like I'm dreaming when such a good job falls on my head.”Luo Li made herself a cup as well. Covering her hands, she nestled herself into the sofa, next to Mo Ying.
"Since it's the company's decision, there's nothing to worry about. Are you alone?"
"There's another senior." Luoli got up from the sofa and went to the cupboard to get a bag of things." This is for you. It's dried orange peel. You can leave it in your room. It can prevent colds and can also be used to make tea."”
"Thanks." Mo Ying took it and placed it on the coffee table." You should leave some for yourself too."”
"Yes, this is specially for you." Luoli explained," Zhihan's mother brought it back from her trip to Guangzhou. It's definitely the best."”
"It suits you very well. You have a weak stomach, so orange peel can nourish your stomach.”Mo Ying patted her head. She liked this action very much and Luo Li was also very used to it, so she smiled at her.
"Alright, I'm leaving." Mo Ying looked up at the clock and got up to leave.
"I'll send you off." Luoli stood up as well." Let me change my clothes."”
"I'll go back by myself. You rest for a while.”Mo Ying said as he opened the door.
"It's okay. I want to go somewhere else first. It's on the way.”Luoli said as she went into the room to get her coat.
------------------------------
When the car arrived at the underground parking lot of the residential area last night, it was a quarter to three. Luo Li was worried that Shang Yuqin would arrive early, so she entered from the other side. After parking the car, Luoli tapped her fingers on the steering wheel. The CD player was playing an old song," Forgive ".
Forgive the rainy days that took you away
In the dark night when I suddenly wake up
I finally stopped crying
Forgive the eternity you took away
The clock is about to run until tomorrow
The pain will get better with time
Will you miss those days?
Missing is like a door that can't be closed tightly
There is happiness in the air
Otherwise, why does it hurt so much when I close my eyes?
Don't tell anyone to let me hide alone
I never doubted your promise
If it weren't for the tenderness of the past,
After all, he's the one I love
What can I blame you for?
……
She did not know how she had managed to find this song. Luoli lightly snorted. Forgive, she really wanted to forgive him. She could forgive him for lying to her, she could forgive him for marrying someone else but she could not forgive him for everything he had lost.
Forgiveness was not magnanimous. Only cowardly people would forgive because they could not bear the consequences. If she wanted to let bygones be bygones, she wouldn't have any complaints if everything went back to square one. Unfortunately, she would never be able to realize that distant dream if she went back. How could she forgive this!
His phone rang. The parking lot was very empty and he could hear it clearly. Luoli glanced at the phone in front of the car and waited for a while before picking it up.
"Ah Li, I'm at the entrance of your neighborhood. Do you want me to go in and pick you up?”Shang Yuqin couldn't wait to see her. Last night, he did not sleep well and even took a cold shower in the middle of winter. Today, he had to make it up to him. His Luoli would definitely not escape.
He was really pushing his luck. Luoli glanced at the phone in disgust, as if it had also been infected and was not likable."No need, I'm almost there." Luo hung up the phone and left the car.
The sunlight outside was very warm, but it could not dispel the haze in Luoli's heart.
If the sunlight couldn't reach his heart, it meant that it wasn't warm enough.
