Chapter 23

Gu Ling's words sounded like denial, but Lin Zi felt that he was trying to cover up.

With such an arrogant character like him, would he go out of his way to explain such a trivial matter?
But Lin Zi didn't intend to expose him, sat back on the sofa, picked up a cherry and put it in his mouth.

Um?cherry?Lin Zi looked down at the plump cherries in her hand, which smelled familiar.

Lin Zi's taste is not picky, and he doesn't particularly like fruits.

One day in that year, there seemed to be a kind of fruit in the refrigerator. It had crystal clear flesh, strong aroma, sour and sweet, and the sweet and sour juice flowed from the mouth to the heart with a light bite.

Lin Zi knew that they were cherries, but they seemed to be different, because she went to the supermarket to buy them several times after that, but the taste was different.

So she had no choice but to give up, and gradually forgot about it.

She feels that many things need to happen naturally. If they can't find them, then maybe they really don't exist. Stubbornness and stubbornness are never in her dictionary.

But suddenly one day, when I opened the refrigerator, I found that variety of cherries again.

At that time, I actually felt the joy of finding something lost, and washed a small bowl of cherries with a smile.

When Gu Ling came back, he saw Lin Zi holding the bowl of cherries, happily sitting in the lobby watching a movie.

The small bowl of cherries had already bottomed out, Gu Ling approached and immediately got up, obediently held out the small bowl.

"Would you like some? Very different cherries."

At that time, Gu Ling just stared at Lin Zi for a few seconds, and his thin lips parted slightly: "I don't like sour food."

"Oh~" Lin Zi put down the bowl in her hand, chewed the cherry in her mouth and asked, "Then why would Auntie buy it?"

Gu Ling's expression was a little embarrassed, and he coughed twice: "It was a gift from someone."

Lin Zi let out an oh, and watched Gu Ling go straight up the stairs, which seemed to be a little faster than usual.

So for a long time, cherries of that variety could be seen in the refrigerator.

Until around October, Lin Zi habitually went downstairs and opened the refrigerator, but did not see the shadow of the cherry as expected.

Lin Zi didn't say anything, just thought, maybe they didn't give it away.

Wang Ma at the side happened to see Lin Zi standing beside the refrigerator in confusion.

"Does the lady want cherries?"

Lin Zi scratched her head, a little embarrassed, and said in a low voice, "Yes."

"My husband said that cherries are out of season. Let me remind him when the season is coming next year. He will ask the fruit growers to stock up."

Lin Zi smiled awkwardly, and exited the kitchen, and Wang Ma's voice came from behind her.

"Mr. looks fierce on the surface. He is really good to his wife. I heard from the driver Xiao Liu that Mr. drove to pick them on purpose."

"Huh?" Lin Zi turned around suspiciously: "Did Gu Ling pick this?"

"That's right, doesn't Madam know?" Wang Ma put down her work, "I heard that it takes a long time to drive."

Lin Zi lowered her eyes, Gu Ling only said that it was given by someone else.

Although she had been confused several times before, how could anyone continue to deliver fruits for several months like this.

But she is not a deep-seated person, so she gradually got used to it.

Footsteps could be heard at the top of the stairs, and when she raised her eyes, Gu Ling happened to be coming down the stairs.

Wearing suits and leather shoes as usual, the relationship between the two of them can be described as respecting each other as guests, or they are just co-renters.

After all, he has been free for such a long time without knowing why, Lin Zi thinks it is still necessary to show his kindness at least, at least he needs to express his gratitude.

"Hmm~ Are you coming down for breakfast?"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Lin Zi wanted to bite off her own tongue, and secretly scolded herself as a pig, what would she do if she went to the restaurant early in the morning and didn't have breakfast.

Gu Ling was obviously surprised by Lin Zi's deliberate greeting, stood still, and looked at her calmly.

"That." Lin Zi clutched the corner of her clothes, as if mustering up her courage: "I heard that you drove to pick the cherries."

When Lin Zi said it, he carefully skipped the word "deliberately" to avoid embarrassment for Gu Ling.

Gu Ling said lightly, and straightened his tie: "My friend's orchard can't be sold out. When I went to play, I took some back."

With all the courage and gratitude, Lin Zi was thrown down by a basin of cold water for a moment. Lin Zi let out a cry, and saw Gu Ling turn around and go out.

"Hey, sir, didn't you eat breakfast this morning?"

"Ma'am, is sir already out? Doesn't he need a briefcase today?"

Lin Zi looked at the briefcase on the sofa, and followed the driver Xiao Liu who just opened the door and walked in.

"Ma'am," Xiao Liu said respectfully, "Sir asked me to come back and help him get his briefcase."

"."

At that time, Lin Zi just felt a little baffled, but after a long time, the refrigerator suddenly began to have that variety of cherries again.

And never missed again.

Lin Zi understood, picked up the fresh and sweet cherries, put them in her mouth contentedly, raised her smiling face, and said in a low voice: "It's still a little eccentric with a wrong mouth."
-
After changing to a big bed, she had a good night's sleep. When she woke up early, Lin Zi only felt in a good mood, and looked at Gu Ling with a cheerful face.

After a while, Dr. Huang came in.

"Looks like I'm in a bad mood today," Dr. Huang said with a smile, "But my girlfriend seems to be in a good mood."

Lin Zi smiled: "We really don't have that kind of relationship."

Gu Ling raised his eyelids: "Your doctor is still a physiognomy."

Lin Zi found that Gu Ling was really good at making the atmosphere quite awkward. It has been a day, and it seems that the mood has not slowed down.

His face was still stern, and it felt like ice scum was about to fall from his face.

Dr. Huang seemed to be used to it, and he clicked his tongue a few times: "No wonder I can't catch up with my girlfriend~ This temper, hey, getting rid of being single is worrying."

While talking, he wrote on the case file in his hand.

"But congratulations, you can be discharged from the hospital, take care of yourself."

Gu Ling nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

Dr. Huang left with a mighty group of interns.

At 10 o'clock, Special Assistant Jin came to pick up Gu Ling and left the hospital on time.

Gu Ling and Lin Zi went to the parking lot first because they had to go through the discharge procedures.

They were met in a black Bentley.

After the two sat down, the driver Xiao Liu looked back frequently.

Gu Ling looked straight ahead with a dark face: "What's wrong with your neck?"

"Oh, no, no," the sudden question made Xiao Liu a little flustered: "I just see this lady, she looks a bit like a wife."

Lin Zi tilted his head to look at Gu Ling when he heard this, and saw that his mouth was tightly closed and the line of his lips was straightened.

As if he didn't hear Xiao Liu's words, he closed his eyes on his own.

In the cramped space, there is only a sense of oppression and distance.

Xiao Liu shut his mouth in a cold sweat.

Lin Zi pursed her lips, always feeling that Gu Ling's emotions towards her were extremely ups and downs, being happy for a while, and ignoring others for a while.

Elusive.
-
When Gu Ling got married, apart from his family, only a few people in daily life knew about it.

Lin Zi is also very low-key in life, and rarely attends occasions with Gu Ling, so there are not many people who know that she was Mrs. Gu before.

When they arrived at the company, Gu Ling didn't introduce much to her, and Lin Zi didn't mind, just doing her job well.

As soon as he entered the office, Gu Ling started to get busy, even though his right hand was still in plaster.

Lin Zi picked a comfortable seat on the sofa, which happened to be the seat where she was sitting when she signed the divorce agreement.

She looked up at the seat in front of the desk where she was standing, Gesanghua's floor mat.

It seems that they can still understand the uneasy state of mind at that time. In fact, they were afraid of him, but they were not too afraid.

After wearing the cute mask for a long time, he gradually got used to it, which caused him to feel inexplicably guilty when he saw Gu Ling during that time.

Thinking about it now, although Gu Ling didn't treat her very well in those two years, he didn't treat her badly either.

She has never been treated badly in terms of finances and life, and it seems that she was given an unlimited black card after marriage.

Although she remembered this card and wanted to return it to him when she left in the end, but because she hadn't used it at the beginning, she couldn't find it later.

Looking around, Lin Zi just sat on the sofa quietly, neither talking nor playing with her mobile phone, just sitting like this.

Watching the people coming and going, following Gu Ling who acted quickly and decisively.

Time passed slowly, and when Lin Zi noticed, the lights outside the window rose.

The room also turned on warm yellow lights, and the temperature of the central air conditioner was suitable. Lin Zi turned on the screen of her mobile phone, and the time was displayed: 19.20.
"You can eat first if you're hungry." Gu Ling raised his head and looked at Lin Zi who was on the sofa: "Maybe he will be busy until late."
