Chapter 72 Letter from Xiao Lanting
The cute cell phone suddenly turned into a hot brick. She threw it into the corner and buried her head in the quilt.
Shame once, shame for life.
Slowly, she muttered to herself.
"I'm not being sentimental for no apparent reason. It's just that his behavior is so misleading, okay?"
"Yes, that's it. If he hadn't hugged me and cried in his previous life, and hadn't made any moves like he wanted to kiss me, would I have misunderstood? No!"
"Well, so, he is also responsible. I don't need to be so hard on myself."
The shame slowly receded.
Three seconds later.
It rebounded sharply again!
Reason: He is not a reborn person, so he doesn’t know that part.
Therefore, in his eyes, she was still a self-indulgent girl.
The shame overwhelmed her.
After a while, she panted and glanced at her lonely cell phone.
For some reason, his letter not only brought her a sense of shame, but also waves of excitement and anticipation.
The depressed mood that had lasted for a few days also dissipated.
It seemed that she had really fallen in love with him through self-struggle.
This realization was like a critical hit, exploding in her mind.
What do you call this? You lose both your wife (reputation) and your soldiers (yourself).
Fifteen minutes later, she finally calmed down enough to pick up her phone and check the messages.
[The gentle and frail Xiao Meiren: (Picture)]
[The gentle and weak Lady Xiao: I'm going to Luochuan on a business trip tomorrow. If you want to go, pack your things. I'll pick you up after the meeting.]
The picture shows a conversation between him and Shen Zhixian——
【Lao Shen: Brother, are you free? 】
Xiao Lanting: No.
[Old Shen: My troublesome sister seems to have gotten into trouble again. Can you please go check on her for me? I can't leave right now. I don't ask for anything else, just don't let her go livestreaming during the National Day holiday. The psychopathic murderers in the news are really rampant right now. If conditions permit, I hope you can take her with you wherever you go.]
Xiao Lanting: Yes.
Shen Zhiyi raised an eyebrow, it turned out to be because of Gou Xian.
Xiao Lanting was really easy to talk to. He said he was busy at first, but then he agreed.
Could he be...
The fantasy suddenly stopped.
She now did not allow herself to imagine anything unnecessary, lest she become overly sentimental again.
Xiao Lanting did this because of the art of living and dying together.
After all, if something happened to her, he wouldn't be any better off.
But she couldn't face him yet, so after hesitating, she reluctantly refused.
Thank you for your concern, teacher. However, I plan to stay at home with my father these days and not go out. Please rest assured.
Xiao Lanting did not reply.
The other side.
At the conference table with a serious atmosphere, Xiao Lanting was listening to his subordinates analyzing the situation of this partner.
On the mobile phone interface, Shen Zhiyi replied with a message, rejecting his invitation.
After that day, things were much quieter around him.
The house was colder and lonelier than before.
He gradually discovered that he hated this lonely environment.
He withdrew his thoughts, exited the chat interface and turned off his phone.
*
Shen Zhiyi regretted it as soon as she sent the message.
After not seeing Lady Xiao for a few days, she even dreamed of him during her nap.
She is worried.
Now that Fan Xiaoqing can’t be contacted, she doesn’t even have anyone to talk to.
She wanted to see him, but didn't want to meet his eyes for the time being.
This contradictory mentality tortured her every minute, and she couldn't enjoy watching TV.
Until I heard my father shouting from downstairs.
"Zhiyi, your classmates are looking for you."
Shen Zhiyi looked out the window and faintly felt a weak sense of life.
She walked to the balcony and looked down.
Sure enough, he saw Xiao Ruiqi being carried forward.
His eyes were dark and he looked listless, as if he hadn't slept for three days.
His father had already let them in, and when he saw Xiao Ruiqi, he was surprised and wanted to send him to the hospital.
Qi Song explained: "Uncle, he went to the hospital. It's not a sick problem. He hasn't slept for three or four days. He is... possessed by evil spirits, so he wants to ask classmate Shen for help."
Shen Anxing was aware of his daughter's reputation on the Internet and had always believed in her abilities.
"Sit down first."
"You haven't asked anyone else to look?"
Qi Song said: "I have looked for it. I found an old Taoist priest the day before yesterday, but it was of no use. I was really at my wit's end, so I came to find Miss Shen."
Xiao Ruiqi, who was leaning on the chair, breathed weakly, his lips were pale, his eyes swept over, his mouth was dry, “Where is Shen Zhiyi?”
Shen Anxing shouted again.
Shen Zhiyi’s voice came slowly: “You didn’t cherish the opportunity when you were given it, now it’s over, go back.”
Xiao Ruiqi's pupils shrank sharply and he was about to go upstairs trembling.
"Tell her I'm willing to give everything as long as she saves me."
Qi Song hesitated to speak, and said awkwardly: "Student Shen may not need those things, otherwise, apologize."
Xiao Ruiqi's face was gloomy, which made Qi Song tremble with fear.
The next second, Xiao Ruiqi said, "Help me up quickly...Apologize."
Shen Zhiyi felt that someone had arrived at the bedroom door, and couldn't help but frowned.
Then I heard the weak male voice apologizing and admitting his mistake in a tearful voice, probably saying something like "I didn't recognize the great man I am".
She's not interested.
suddenly--
"As long as you are willing to save me, I will report everything about my third brother to you in the future. I will help you drive away anyone who wants to approach him. As long as I am here, the third sister-in-law can only be you!"
My heart is beating so fast, what’s going on?
Shen Zhiyi sat up, holding her left chest, and felt the clear beating.
She even wanted to hear Xiao Ruiqi's words "The third sister-in-law can only be you" again.
How can such a pleasant-sounding mouth say such nice words?
It took her a minute to suppress her restlessness, stick to her principles, and refuse them.
Xiao Ruiqi did not leave, and was arranged by his father to continue waiting downstairs.
She was also indifferent.
If he is willing to wait, let him wait.
Since she told Xiao Lanting that she would not go out for fun during the holidays, she gave up the idea of outdoor live broadcast.
Don't want to slap someone in the face.
She still has four days of vacation and plans to grow flowers.
Like him, grow flowers.
After filming a five-second video update, she was accused of slacking off by her fans.
She was not angry at all; instead, she was inexplicably in a good mood.
Because she just used this as an excuse to enter Xiao Lanting's circle of friends to learn from him.
He occasionally shares some of his flower-growing experiences on WeChat Moments.
She liked and left a message.
He also replied with two sentences of flower-growing knowledge, very briefly.
Shen Zhiyi felt the faint concern conveyed by those words, and couldn't help but sigh.
What will she do in the future?
Falling in love with someone who... wants to forget the world.
A year later, he will devote himself to practicing Taoism with Master Zishan, and will definitely not care about these personal affairs.
"ah--"
A shrill scream broke her thoughts.
For a second, she thought it was her own inner voice shouting out, but when she listened carefully, she realized it was Xiao Ruiqi's voice downstairs.
After a while, Qi Song ran up to report: "Oh no, Miss Shen, Brother Qi dreamed that Fan Xiaoqing asked for help!"
Shen Zhiyi lowered his eyes, his face solemn, put down the shovel and followed him downstairs to check.
"What's wrong with Xiaoqing?" she asked bluntly.
Xiao Ruiqi looked like he was about to die, his lips pale, and he said weakly: "She..."
