Chapter 44 Chapter 44 But I have to do something with Liu Jingheng...
Qin Du stood at the door, staring through the half-open door at Liu Jingheng who was occupying the bed.
She slept in his bed, used his pillow, was covered with his quilt, and even let the dog sleep on the bed.
If it were someone else, Qin Du would have asked Uncle Li to handle it directly, but he didn't. He even thought it was funny.
Liu Jingheng has no sense of boundaries, can't tell good from bad, and is extremely difficult to communicate with.
But he still thinks Liu Jingheng is very cute.
If you think carefully about what advantages he has that are different from ordinary people, it seems that there are none.
Qin Du looked up again.
Under the dim bedside lamp, Liu Jingheng's sleeping face was blurry, but he could clearly see that he was chewing the sheets, leaving a dark wet mark on the light gray fabric.
Qin Du couldn't help laughing out loud.
What? He’s biting the sheets while sleeping, and biting them so hard.
Qin Du shook his head, turned around and went to another room to spend the night.
…
In the middle of the night, Qin Du was sleeping, and in his dream he heard the sound of "baji, baji" and rustling.
He raised his hand unconsciously, but suddenly felt a chill on his cuff and opened his eyes.
In the darkness, he felt his cuffs and confirmed that they were wet.
Thinking that he had knocked over the water cup on the bedside table, he reached out in the dark to touch that side.
As I was touching it, my hand stopped moving.
There was a warm and soft touch on the palm of my hand, like human skin.
I touched it again and found a strand of smooth hair wrapped around my fingertips.
Qin Du suddenly opened his eyes and looked around.
The next second——
"Liu, Jing, Heng." He suppressed his tone, but every word was like thunder in his ears.
Liu Jingheng was sleeping beside him, curled up. A curious puppy's head popped out of his arms, staring at Qin Du with its dark eyes and sticking out its tongue.
"Get up." Qin Du pushed Liu Jingheng.
Liu Jingheng slowly opened her eyes, but before she could regain consciousness, she spoke:
"Are you going to pick up Nuomi..."
Qin Du's expression was one of helplessness that was rarely seen.
"In your head..." Qin Du stopped halfway through his words when he met Liu Jingheng's expectant eyes and stopped scolding.
The tone changed and became lighter:
"Penny will be sad if you do this."
Liu Jingheng: "Why?"
His brain capacity was simply not enough to sort out the cause and effect of this matter.
Qin Du sighed softly and lowered his head:
"nothing."
Liu Jingheng closed her eyes consciously:
"I'm afraid of oversleeping, and I want to see Nuomi as soon as possible."
Qin Du lay back down as if possessed by a ghost, pulled the quilt over him, and said in an unhappy tone:
"Okay, just wait."
Close your eyes and sleep.
After an unknown amount of time, Qin Du opened his eyes.
Not sleepy at all.
In the moonlight, he looked at Liu Jingheng beside him. She was curled up in a ball in thin sleepwear without a quilt.
Without a pillow, the slender neck cannot support the head, and the neck is bent into a C shape, which looks very uncomfortable.
It doesn't disturb his sleep at all.
Qin Du sighed softly, propped up his upper body, and put one hand through his neck, gently supporting his head, while keeping an eye on him to see if he was awake. He placed his other arm under his head and gently lowered it.
Finally, he pulled his quilt a little closer to cover Liu Jingheng.
Qin Du observed. He saw that Liu Jingheng was indeed thin, and the quilt didn't take up much space.
He pulled the quilt towards Liu Jingheng and lay back down.
Qin Du opened his eyes again.
Still unable to fall asleep. This seemed to be the first time he had shared a bed with someone else since he could remember.
He stared blankly at Liu Jingheng's sleeping face. In the night, it was so white that it reflected light. Her clear eyebrows and eyes were hung on the skin that looked like fallen snow, which made him think of the ink paintings of snow scenes he had seen.
Qin Du couldn't help but raise his hand and gently placed it on Liu Jingheng's waist, patting it meaningfully.
It seems to be coaxing to sleep.
*
The next morning.
When Liu Jingheng opened his eyes, there was no one around him. The extra pillow under his head and the thin blanket wrapped around him proved that last night was not a dream.
Occasionally, he also admired his own great qualities of not fearing tyranny and not fearing sacrifice.
Now thinking back to last night when he woke up, he searched around with Penny in his arms, found Qin Du’s temporary room, walked in and lay down next to him. Who gave him the courage?
Fish Leong?
He stood up and went downstairs, looking around. The hall was empty, with only Uncle Li pretending to be busy.
Uncle Li saw that he looked like he was looking for someone but failed, so he winked and said:
"Jingjing is looking for President Qin? President Qin went to the company early this morning."
Just as Liu Jingheng was about to say something, a nanny hurried downstairs:
"Butler Li, it seems like a bird has entered the mistress's room on the third floor. I heard some chirping and fluttering. Do you want to open the door and take a look?"
Uncle Li pondered for a moment and lowered his voice:
"Don't worry about it. The bird will fly away when it's tired. Mr. Qin doesn't allow anyone else to set foot in that room, no matter what the reason. Just remember it."
The nanny left hesitantly.
Liu Jingheng tilted her head.
It seemed that when I first came to the Qin family, I heard Uncle Li say that the third floor was the room where Qin Du's mother lived before her death, and no one was allowed to enter.
Forget it. I can’t even reach the third floor with my physical strength anyway, so why bother with it?
He fed Penny and Cube water and food, then took the paper to school to ask the teacher to revise it.
…
On the other side, the Rilon Group headquarters.
In the huge conference room, Qin Du sat in the seat of honor, reading through the work reports submitted by his subordinates.
The secretary suddenly knocked on the door and came in with a cell phone in her hand, whispering in his ear:
"Representative Qin, you have several calls and text messages. Do you want to see them now?"
Qin Du didn't even raise his eyes:
"No."
During the meeting, no one is allowed to make or receive phone calls. This is the rule.
The secretary nodded:
"Okay, I'll send a message to Mr. Liu and tell him to call back after your meeting."
Qin Du's hand, which was flipping through the documents, suddenly stopped.
The secretary's high heels made a rhythmic, crisp sound as they stepped on the ground, getting farther and farther away until they reached the door.
"Wait." The secretary was interrupted by Qin Du when he reached for the door handle.
Qin Du closed the document and said to the leaders on both sides of the long table with a calm demeanor:
"The meeting has been going on for over an hour. I see everyone is tired, so let's take a break."
After that, he stood up and walked towards the secretary and took the phone from her.
Others: ???
A group of people whispered:
"This... isn't right. One hour? How can we only get here? I'm already prepared not to go back for lunch."
"I saw Representative Qin adjourn the meeting only after the secretary came in and told me there was a missed call. Who is so capable?"
"Hehe, maybe Representative Qin is also about to have good news."
Qin Du returned to the office and closed the door. Before he sat down on the sofa, he stood behind the door and turned on his phone.
There were seven or eight missed calls from Liu Jingheng and several messages on the screen.
Qin Du clicked on the message and took a look. The next moment, his sharp brows furrowed deeply.
[Mr. Qin, when will the glutinous rice arrive? Do I need to ask for leave from school?]
[Boss Qin, has the glutinous rice arrived? ]
【Sticky rice? 】
Qin Du replied with a swift movement:
If you continue to be so persistent and interrupt my work, I'm afraid I won't have time to pick up Nuomi.
Liu Jingheng's message popped up immediately:
【Sorry, I won’t send messages anymore. 】
But after a while, he sent another:
【The previous one is really the last one [pout]】
Qin Du looked at the pouting expression after receiving the news and smiled for no reason.
She looks quite similar to Liu Jingheng. They both have stupid looks.
Then, he sent a message to the merchants who bred artificial otters:
[Hello, how long will the procedure take? I'm a bit anxious.]
*
Liu Jingheng showed his thesis to his supervisor, who slapped him so hard that he almost suffered internal injuries.
"Good! Very good! Wow, the writing style is mature, and the organization is clear and comprehensive. I've been reading it for a long time, but I really can't find anything to revise for you. I always feel that adding more would be superfluous."
The instructor then asked, "Did you write this yourself?"
Liu Jingheng nodded.
However, he had no idea how it became a photocopy and ended up on his desk.
The instructor smiled with satisfaction and said:
"As expected, you can learn real things by interning at the Qin family. I think we should cooperate with the Qin family next year and hire them to teach us. Within five years, Jinhai University's housekeeping program will be unrivaled and lead the nation!"
Liu Jingheng: "Okay."
It doesn’t matter whether he has the final say or not; applying the formula is the only truth.
After reading the paper, he sat on the stone steps at the school gate and sent text messages to harass Qin Du.
I’m worried. Nuomi’s clothes and daily necessities have arrived. Is Nuomi still reproducing?
"Liu Jingheng." A familiar and cold voice suddenly came from above his head.
He slowly raised his head and met Cheng Yunqing's slightly tired face.
The other person seemed to have not slept all night, with a faint blue tint in his eyes.
"Hello." Liu Jingheng responded politely.
Cheng Yunqing slowly closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
"Has the otter that Mr. Qin promised to buy you arrived?"
Liu Jingheng shook her head.
Cheng Yunqing sneered:
"You've been deceived. Otters are a second-class protected species. How could they be given to you so easily?"
Liu Jingheng still shook her head:
"Boss Qin wouldn't lie to me."
There's no need to lie to him. What good would it do to lie to him? It's impossible to say that Mr. Qin is greedy for his body.
Cheng Yunqing sighed tiredly again:
"Let's find a place to sit down and have a good talk."
Liu Jingheng didn't know what he and the male protagonist had to talk about, but he was a very honest man and would follow whoever asked him to go.
When he saw that the place Cheng Yunqing mentioned was an aquarium, he loved it.
The aquarium here also offers an otter interaction project. It is larger than the county's wildlife park, has more otters, and is more interactive. They have been trained and learned to play ball throwing with customers. The only downside is that customers are prohibited from touching them.
Liu Jingheng was feeding fish to the otter when Cheng Yunqing squatted beside him and said meaningfully:
"Although I can't get you an otter to raise, I can accompany you to play with the otter every day."
Liu Jingheng nodded: "Okay."
Cheng Yunqing added: "Do you want to continue playing with the otter, or go back to the Qin family?"
Liu Jingheng had no doubt: "I want to continue playing with the otters."
"Okay." Cheng Yunqing smiled, a hint of fatigue in his eyes. "Send a message to President Qin now and tell him you won't be returning to the Qin family."
These words were said in a very clichéd way. It was not "I won't go back to the Qin family tonight", but "I won't go back to the Qin family anymore". To anyone who heard it, it sounded like the final farewell.
Liu Jingheng said "OK" and took out her cell phone to send a message to Qin Du.
In order to prevent himself from making mistakes in his memory, he asked Cheng Yunqing to type out every word he said.
Cheng Yunqing pretended not to care, but in fact she was checking the text messages he sent word by word with her peripheral vision.
It is impossible for him to give up, even if he is facing the Rilon Group which is as huge as a mountain. It is a pity that he is born with a proud character.
Seeing the words "Message sent successfully", Cheng Yunqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Not long after the message was sent, Qin Du called directly.
Liu Jingheng hesitated, and finally looked at Cheng Yunqing, asking for his opinion.
Cheng Yunqing raised his chin and said in a cold voice:
"Don't answer, hang up. If you answer, you have to go back to the Qin family now. Don't you want to play with the otter?"
Liu Jingheng honestly pressed the small circular phone icon on the screen and dragged it to the right.
Qin Du's voice suddenly came:
"Liu Jingheng."
Liu Jingheng was stunned——
Isn't it hung up?
Cheng Yunqing was also stunned for a moment, then he remembered that when an iPhone receives a call from the lock screen, there is no small hang-up icon unless you set it yourself.
But looking at Liu Jingheng's expression, you can tell that he doesn't understand.
"I'm here." Liu Jingheng replied to Qin Du.
Qin Du held the phone tightly.
"You seem to have forgotten..." He stopped talking halfway.
Liu Jingheng: "Maybe I forgot. My memory is not good. Can you remind me?"
Qin Du's Adam's apple slid up and down, and then he said slowly:
"I'm going to pick up Nuomi in a while, you have fun outside."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
He swallowed back the words, "You seem to have forgotten that my company's stock price may plummet because of your actions. You have to be on call until the storm has passed."
He knew that this sentence was like playing the lute to Heng.
As expected, Liu Jingheng became anxious.
He waved to each of the otters in the pond, his face expressionless, his mouth as fast as a cannon:
"I have to go. I have to go back to the Qin family."
Cheng Yunqing said nothing and did not try to persuade her to stay. He just stood there and stared at Liu Jingheng's back, then disappeared into the crowd in a blink of an eye.
Suddenly he felt an indescribable fatigue, as if the whole world was making fun of him. He could deal with this but couldn't deal with that.
Cheng Yunqing no longer had the strength to stand up, his body suddenly collapsed and he sat down on the ground.
"Plop, plop." A few wet marks of water fell on the ground in front of him.
On the other side, Liu Jingheng called Qin Du while walking.
Qin Du thought about it for a long time before answering the phone.
Liu Jingheng was so worried that the glutinous rice would fly away that she was almost numb from nervousness.
"I'm sorry, Qin Zhong, I, the horse merchant, will go over and cause trouble."
Qin Du on the other end of the phone raised his hand to hide the smile on his lips. After a while, he said with a stern face and an icy voice:
"Give me the location, I'll pick you up."
…
Qin Du drove to the entrance of the aquarium and took a look. Liu Jingheng was sitting at the entrance with her schoolbag in her arms, staring blankly.
Not far away at the entrance of the museum, Cheng Yunqing was standing there, staring at this side blankly, his eyes a little red.
Qin Du curled the corners of his lips, showing the evil charm and arrogance unique to villains.
"Liu Jingheng, get in the car."
As soon as Liu Jingheng got in the car, she opened her mouth and said:
"Are we going to pick up Nuomi and take her home now?"
"Yeah." Qin Du didn't even look at him. His peripheral vision passed over Cheng Yunqing for a moment and he started the car. "Pick up Nuomi and go home."
He emphasized the word "go home".
Liu Jingheng nodded: "Yes, go home."
The car sped all the way and stopped outside an upscale residential area. A young girl was standing at the gate. When she saw the car, she came up enthusiastically and took the initiative to help open the passenger door.
As soon as Liu Jingheng got out of the car, she said, "I'm here to pick up Nuomi."
The girl asked with a smile, "Have you already thought of a name for the little otter baby?"
Liu Jingheng nodded. She was always slow and dull, but now she nodded while raising and lowering her feet, ready to charge at any time.
Qin Du locked the car and said, "Sorry to bother you." As soon as he said this, Liu Jingheng rushed in front of the two of them and hurried inside with his head down.
Qin Du was behind: "You're walking so fast, do you know where it is?"
Liu Jingheng slowed down her pace and followed closely the girl who was laughing non-stop.
Otters are raised in a large villa in a high-end residential area. As soon as Liu Jingheng entered the door, she saw several adult otters swimming flexibly in the pool in the yard like underwater rockets.
His eyes suddenly lit up.
"Which, which one is the four glutinous rice?" His tongue was curled with excitement.
Girls seem to be born cheerful and love to laugh, and their mouth corners never droop:
"The baby otters are all in there, come with me."
As soon as the door opened, the otter babies moving around in the house stopped moving and looked over curiously. A few timid ones crawled under the sofa like a gust of wind and observed secretly.
Liu Jingheng stood there motionless, her eyes full of water and sparkling pearls.
Heaven, heaven! Is this a place he can reach?
Seeing that he didn't move, Qin Du took the initiative to ask: "Which one is just glutinous rice?"
The girl trotted over to the cage and waved to the two of them.
She gently lifted the blanket, and a little round head popped out, looking at the person who came curiously with big black round eyes.
"This is Nuomi. He's just two months old today. He's a very cute little brother."
Liu Jingheng stood in front of the cage with her eyes wide open. Perhaps because of excitement, the small mole on the tip of her nose looked even redder, making the surrounding skin red as well.
"Glutinous rice..." He half-knelt down and stretched out a hand carefully.
The two-month-old otter had not yet shed its lanugo. It was furry and chubby, like a chocolate mochi dumpling. It sniffed at the hand that Liu Jingheng extended.
The little guy turned around clumsily, with his bamboo shoot-like tail raised high, and he stuck his butt out to dig in the nest.
Turning around again, he held something in his two little paws and crawled to Liu Jingheng's hand happily, putting the thing into his hand.
Liu Jingheng's hands were shaking with nervousness:
"Bei...it's a shell..."
It is a shell with bright colors and strange shapes.
The girl laughed and said:
"It seems that Nuomi likes you very much. The shells are his favorite treasures. A few days ago, he even fought with other otter babies for these two shells."
Liu Jingheng couldn't help but take a deep breath, her face red as if bleeding.
She said that Nuomi liked him very much, liked him...
Little Nuomi turned around in the nest, making a sharp humming sound through his nose, then hugged Liu Jingheng's arms tightly with both hands, and climbed up clumsily. He rolled over and climbed to Liu Jingheng's shoulder, with his soft belly pressed tightly against Liu Jingheng's cheek, and continued to climb up.
Finally, I climbed to the top of Jingheng and admired its beautiful scenery from a high vantage point. When I was tired, I lay down there and took a rest.
Liu Jingheng's mouth was slightly open and her eyes were almost wide open.
"Oh, little boy, he looks very happy today." The girl clapped her hands and laughed.
Liu Jingheng didn't dare to move, like a sculpture, her eyeballs didn't move, only her Adam's apple kept sliding up and down nervously.
He was afraid that he would accidentally drop Glutinous Rice because Glutinous Rice didn't look very smart.
One minute, two minutes, five minutes passed -
The glutinous rice still showed no sign of coming down. He picked up a strand of Liu Jingheng's hair, chewed it twice, found it unpalatable, and spit it out.
Qin Du looked at Liu Jingheng, who had been completely petrified. He stood there for as long as he watched.
Finally, the corners of his mouth began to rise slightly on his cold and distant face.
He raised his hand to cover his lips, but couldn't stop the laughter that came out.
So cute, silly and adorable.
Liu Jingheng came back to her senses and met Qin Du's inexplicable smile.
He was a little dazed for a moment. It was the first time he saw Qin Du smiling so brightly, although he didn't know what he was laughing at.
I was surprised to find that when Qin Du smiled, there were two big dimples on both sides of his lips, and the corners of his eyes would slightly rise when he smiled, like a crescent moon.
Qin Du noticed Liu Jingheng's gaze, immediately restrained his smile, and tactically cleared his throat:
"Don't be nervous. Otters are much more flexible than you think."
Liu Jingheng still didn't dare to move. It was a hot day and a thin layer of sweat had already appeared on her forehead.
Nuomi was finally tired from playing, so she climbed down with her butt sticking out, and lay on Liu Jingheng's shoulder, pulling at his arms with her little hands.
"Nuomi asked you to hug it. This child loves to act like a spoiled child." The girl reminded.
Liu Jingheng received the order, his hands stiff as a robot, carefully supporting the otter's rump and cradling it in his arms. Little Nuomi hummed contentedly and lay in his arms, sucking on her fingers.
Slurp, slurp, it tastes so good.
The girls couldn't stop laughing.
In front of her, the way Liu Jingheng held the otter, her cautiously hunched waist, and her arms that didn't dare to circle hard, made her think of those bewildered expectant fathers outside the delivery room.
Qin Du glanced at his watch and said to the girl in a low voice:
"We're taking the otter away today. Please help me take stock of its daily necessities."
Girl: "Have you received the breeding permit?"
"Not so fast. We'll take her away first, and we'll complete the formalities later." Qin Du glanced at Liu Jingheng. "If we don't take her back, some people will go crazy."
…
In the car.
Qin Du started the car and glanced at Liu Jingheng. He was holding Nuomi and couldn't let go. The clever little Baoer would even play the clapping game with his mother.
"Liu Jingheng, since you've decided to raise a pet, you must be prepared to take care of it for its entire life."
Liu Jingheng nodded and clenched her fist firmly: "I'm ready."
"Also, you can't be partial to one and play with Penny often." Qin Du said again.
After all, Penny is worth four million and Nuomi is worth eight thousand.
Liu Jingheng continued to nod: "Okay."
*
Qin family.
Old Master Qin, Uncle Li, and Qin Chuyao stood side by side in silence, their faces showing subtle expressions.
Old Master Qin vaguely remembered that the balcony on the east side of the house was his greenhouse. The garden was full of spring colors all year round, making it a very suitable place to sit here and drink, sing, and write poems on sunny days.
But where are his flowers? What's with this big, square pond?
What about the unidentified creatures swimming freely in the pool?
Qin Du, who acted first and reported later, had no sense of destroying the years of hard work of others. Instead, he argued confidently:
"I moved the greenhouse to the west balcony. It has better sunlight here, so I'll leave it for Nuomi to play with water."
The three of them looked over at the same time:
"Sticky rice?"
Qin Du said nothing, his eyes fixed on the chocolate mochi ball in the pool.
Three people: "..."
Liu Jingheng walked around the pool, bent over, like a parent teaching a child to walk, clapping her hands non-stop:
"Nuomi is awesome, she swims really well."
Three people: “…………”
Old Master Qin winked at Uncle Li, left Qin Chuyao who still didn't understand the situation, and went to the corner to whisper.
Old Master Qin: "I can't go on like this. I'm afraid that one day when I come back, there will be a cheetah at the door to greet me."
Uncle Li agreed. "Originally, the study on the second floor was supposed to be my office, but because it had plenty of daylight, President Qin forcibly requisitioned it and turned it into an otter amusement park..."
"Let them move out." Old Master Qin suggested maliciously, "We have plenty of real estate anyway, so they can go wherever they want."
"But..." Uncle Li hesitated, "Why would you let them move out? Mr. Qin doesn't recognize them as a couple. He'll get angry if you say too much."
The old man pondered for a moment, his eyes lit up:
"Then, plan B."
Uncle Li had an expression that said, "That's exactly what I was thinking," and with a sly grin, he reached a consensus with the old man.
*
The next day.
Liu Jingheng searched the entire house but couldn't find glutinous rice.
He found that Nuomi was really dishonest. She used her body size advantage to play hide-and-seek everywhere. He asked Penny to find her, but Penny was obviously jealous. She didn't look for her and just hummed to express her dissatisfaction.
In the end, seeing how hard he was searching, Penny took pity on him and dragged Nuomi out from under the decorative cabinet on the third floor.
"Nuomi, running around again." Liu Jingheng scolded weakly.
Nuomi stretched out his little hands and asked for a hug.
Liu Jingheng picked up the child and climbed to the third floor. This was already his limit. He had lost weight visibly.
He tapped Nuomi's black nose and said, "Don't run around." Then his eyes turned and his attention was suddenly attracted by something.
A door, an old-fashioned mahogany door that was totally out of tune with the Qin family's decoration style. Perhaps because of its age, the surface was covered with scratches of various sizes, but it was wiped very clean and was shiny and smooth.
Liu Jingheng blinked and realized that she had climbed to the third floor, a place she had never been to before.
He stared at the door, recalling Uncle Li's instructions:
"No matter what happens, you must not enter the room at the end of the third floor. President Qin will be furious if he finds out."
Liu Jingheng hugged Nuomi tightly, called Penny, who was still sniffing at the door, to come over, and went downstairs hugging her on both sides.
He wasn't interested in what was behind the door.
These days, the school has finished the thesis defense and graduation examination. Although Liu Jingheng has a bad memory, fortunately, he has Uncle Li, a professional who reads to him every day, which has formed muscle memory in his brain. No matter whether it is the defense or the examination, he passed it in a daze.
Uncle Li didn't want to miss Jingjing either. He didn't want Jingjing to find him annoying.
But Mr. Qin only had this request and used a high bonus as an inducement.
Read it! Why not?
Liu Jingheng, who has nothing to do every day, has to stay at the Qin family and take care of the three babies. She often stares at the sky outside the window. When she is bored, she takes out her mobile phone to invite the big guys to form a team or chat.
I have been playing this game for more than four months, but my rank has not improved at all, my operation has made no progress, and my awareness has steadily deteriorated. Instead, I have been scolded a lot. Fortunately, there are big guys who don't look down on me. Every time I get scolded, the big guys will use sharp words to fight back.
Every time the big boss argued for him, Liu Jingheng felt his heartbeat quicken a little, his chest swelled, and filled with a warm current.
As if acting without thinking, purely on instinct, Liu Jingheng sent a message to the boss on a sunny afternoon:
[Hello. Would you like to come see otters at my place?]
The boss seemed to be busy and took a long time to reply:
I'm not free.
Liu Jingheng: [Okay.]
After being rejected, I felt inexplicably depressed.
Qin Du on the other end of the phone stared at the word "Okay" for a long time. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that these two words were different from the other fonts on the screen. They seemed gray, soft, sad and lost, as if they were about to drip water.
Qin Du raised his forehead tiredly and blinked.
A century passed, and he picked up his phone again, followed by "Okay" and sent another message:
[My plan has changed. Now that I have time, where can I find you? ]
Liu Jingheng sat up straight and ran downstairs to look at the house number while typing.
Half an hour later, he saw the long-lost boss at the door of Qin's house.
"You're here." Liu Jingheng smiled as brightly as spring flowers, her eyelashes were coated with a layer of light gold, and her face looked much rosier than before.
Qin Du pushed up his sunglasses and said "hmm".
Liu Jingheng grabbed his hand and led him inside:
"This isn't my home, it's where I work, but Grandpa said you can bring friends over."
Qin Du lowered his eyes and looked at the hand that was holding his unconsciously. It was slender, white and smooth, with faint blue veins on the back of the hand. The wrist was thin and weak, not even enough to hold.
Qin Du's Adam's apple slid, and as if possessed by a ghost, he gently wrapped his backhand around Liu Jingheng's hand.
Uncle Li happened to be away from home today, so the nannies had already finished their work and returned to their rooms to rest.
Liu Jingheng stopped at the door and opened the shoe cabinet, but the guest's slippers were missing. She guessed that the nanny might have sent them for cleaning.
I searched through all the drawers and cabinets to find shoe covers, but couldn't find them.
He was a little embarrassed: "Wait for me."
Qin Du's eyes closed weakly under his sunglasses.
This is his own home.
But unfortunately, there was nothing he could do about Liu Jingheng.
After a long time, Liu Jingheng came back, smiling adorably, holding two red objects in her hands:
"Found it. There are no shoe covers, so you can wear these for now."
Qin Du looked down at what was in Liu Jingheng's hand...
Big red plastic bag.
He looked away: "Do you have to wear it?"
"Yes, the nanny's cleaning job is very hard, and we can't cause trouble for others." Liu Jingheng shook open the big red plastic bag and bent down. "Lift your feet."
Qin Du casually placed the car keys on the locker and said:
"Have you searched the slippers? Have you searched the storage room on the second floor?"
Liu Jingheng stood there in a daze, holding the plastic bag.
Then he slowly turned around and went upstairs.
A few minutes later, he came down carrying a brand new pair of guest slippers.
"You are so smart. How did you know there were new slippers in the storage room on the second floor?" Liu Jingheng squatted down and placed the slippers in front of Qin Du.
Qin Du took off his leather shoes and put on slippers: "I guessed it."
Liu Jingheng nodded, and a flash of red passed by in her sight.
He looked over and saw the red color inadvertently exposed on the soles of the boss' shoes when he took them off.
Red soles?
The boss is also a rich man.
He took the initiative to put the boss's shoes into the shoe cabinet, straightened them, and stood up -
His eyes fell on the locker.
Car keys.
Rattan cat key pendant.
Red soles? Rattan kittens?
A concerning point vaguely emerged in my mind, but it was very vague, as if separated by a thin veil.
Qin Du noticed his gaze, took the car keys and put them in his pocket, and asked:
"You won't invite me in?"
Her thoughts were interrupted, but Liu Jingheng didn't make it difficult for herself. She imitated Uncle Li and respectfully made a "please" gesture.
The two entered the house, and Uncle Li happened to come back after shopping and saw two figures flash past the entrance door.
He immediately widened his eyes, alert.jpg
Who! Where did this wild man come from? Okay, you think Jingjing is innocent and simple, so you are trying to hit on him, right?
OK.
Uncle Li rolled up his sleeves, took out his cell phone, turned on the video, and followed quietly.
In the room.
As soon as Penny saw Qin Du, she wagged her tail wildly and pounced on him.
