After signing the last few documents, Qin Shou glanced at his watch and realized that it was already nine o'clock in the evening.
At this time, she should be getting ready to rest early, right?
Shi Baozhu...
No, it's Shi Lingtong.
Tongtong.
—Just call me Tongtong.
The soft, sweet voice, when recalled, is like a cat's paw gently scratching at the heart, causing a tingling, itchy feeling, like a spring breeze brushing across a pool of spring water, intoxicating the warm sunshine in the clear sky.
Before she knew it, she had really grown up.
She was no longer the child he remembered from his childhood, the one who would cry loudly at the slightest grievance while clutching a doll and wearing a little dress, nor the rebellious girl who, when her parents were called in to help her with school, was too afraid to call them and could only whine and beg him to help her get the school supplies.
Instead, in a sudden moment of realization, he saw her in an exquisite dress, with a beautiful face and delicate eyebrows, a gentle smile that shone brightly, and she was at the age where she could fall in love.
This girl...
His eyes were gentle.
Buzz—
The phone on the table suddenly twitched, and a WeChat message popped up on the screen with a few large characters appearing.
【Tongtong: ╰(￣▽￣)╭ Good evening, most handsome big brother!】
Qin Shou snorted, picked up his phone, and typed a reply.
[Kari: All you do is talk a good game.]
His reply sounded reproachful, yet outside the phone, a slight, uncontrollable smile played on his lips.
The guard who was tidying up the documents looked up and happened to see the smile on Qin Shou's lips. His eyes widened in surprise.
The commander actually smiled?
The commander, cold as an iceberg, fierce and ruthless, whose name alone would terrify all the new recruits in the army, actually smiled?!
Good heavens, he would rather believe that the sky collapsed, the earth split, and the sun exploded than admit that the man in front of him, who was smiling so sweetly and gently, was their leader!
The documents the guard was holding were about to fall from his arms. He didn't dare to utter a sound, but inside he was screaming. He stood there, frozen, almost like a stone statue.
Qin Shou noticed the astonished gazes around him, and his cold eyes swept over them. The guard shuddered in fright, quickly bowed his head, and hurriedly left the office.
Once outside the door and out of Qin Shou's sight, he practically jumped, losing all his composure, and ran away in a near-panic frenzy, inwardly grumbling:
—Look at how gently the leader is smiling. If it weren't for the girl opposite him, he swears he would have performed a barbell-eating act in public!
Hmm, is the commander finally finding a partner? Hahaha... Even a lifelong bachelor can find someone, tsk tsk tsk...
It's so sour it makes me jealous.
The guard laughed and then burst into tears of envy, jealousy, and resentment.
In terms of age, I am actually three or four years older than the leader.
The leader already has a girl he can chat with on WeChat and laugh cheesily, while I'm still a lifelong single dog...
That's heartbreaking!
Qin Shou was naturally unaware of the guard's sour lemon-like mood.
At this moment, he was still focused on Tong Su's reply.
[Tongtong: I only talk nonsense with you (￣︶￣)↗]
Then, she sent another voice message.
Qin Shou looked up and saw that after the guards left, he was the only one in the office. The office was also very soundproof, so no one outside could hear anything inside.
He tapped it gently.
A cheerful girl's giggles drifted from the phone's speaker.
Brother, I only removed you from my WeChat blacklist. Please don't ignore my messages.
Was he the only one there?
Who are Xi Ming and Ye Changqing? Are they still being deleted and blocked?
Hmm, it's pleasant.
