Keep in mind our website and wish you all a happy reading!Don't forget to spread the word.

But she still felt uncomfortable and had to say something quickly before hanging up: "Uh--thank you."

This sentence was so light and fast that Qin Jueheng almost missed it.Fortunately, she was so familiar with Zhao Jili's voice that she could distinguish even the breath.

So she held the phone, first slightly curled the corners of her lips, then covered her face, leaned on the steering wheel and smiled.

What are you thanking for this silly boy?

This thank you came so abruptly that even Zhao Jili was slightly taken aback after saying it himself.

What are you thankful for? ----Maybe it's thanks to Qin Jueheng for waiting for her, maybe it's because of Qin Jueheng's attitude, or maybe it's because of something she doesn't even know about.

All of this is too new, the two of them have never faced each other with such an attitude in the past ten years.

This is not the attachment and admiration of the younger generation for the elders, nor the love and love of parents for their children, nor is it tit-for-tat hatred, nor is it a dispute in which one party desperately wants to suppress the other, nor is it a distorted relationship that cannot be brought to the table .

Ask yourself, Zhao Jili doesn't know what love is, and she can't draw the slightest normal conclusion from the unequal relationship in the past ten years.She once stubbornly thought that the longing for Qin Jueheng deep in her heart was inappropriate and pathological, and could not be tolerated by her.

And that kind of longing has gone through too many ups and downs. In the end, even she herself has to admit that that longing is almost an obsession, an emotion that cannot be appeased.Even if it can be cut off one day, it can no longer be replaced.

But until now, such obsessions have finally been appeased.It has also been placed on a high platform of balance, close to the clouds that were once out of reach.

So this is no longer called a pathological desire, nor can it be called an obsession.

In fact, this is liking, the affection that has been suppressed for a long time and distorted under the thorns in the cage.Now it broke through all the shackles, and finally showed its original appearance, and began to become lingering.

This feeling can also spread upwards, and it can also entangle the heart, and there is no need to cast aside or suppress it for anyone.

The author has something to say: Mr. Qin (laughs): I knew I was right, she just always liked me.

Zhao Jili (suspicious): Mr. Qin? Dreaming again?

Chapter 56 Relationships

It was almost four o'clock when Zhao Jili walked out from the tall building and walked around the street trees and flower beds.

Zhao Jili's hair was newly permed, and Qin Jueheng looked at her curly hair with a honey-gold color under the sun, and thought that she looked good no matter what.

"I am so hungry."

Zhao Jili's first words when he came over were neither a greeting nor a greeting, but he talked about daily life very bluntly.

"What did you have for lunch?" Qin Jueheng naturally liked her relaxed attitude, and he felt better for a while, so he leaned forward and opened the car door for her: "If you're hungry, go eat first. What do you want to eat?"

Zhao Jili fumbled for the seat belt while closing the car door, sniffed and replied in a muffled voice: "I don't have much time at noon, I ate half a hamburger."

This tone is very unhappy.Qin Jueheng understood what she meant and felt amused.

"It's so late now, just eat whatever you want." Zhao Jili said, reached out and pulled down the sunshield in front of the car, straightened his temple hair in front of the mirror, and cast a sideways glance at Qin Jueheng, and asked, "Mr. Where is this taking me?"

"Where else can I take you?" Qin Jueheng looked at her expression, stretched out his hand to pick out a strand of hair on her shoulder that was under the seat belt, and replied with a smile: "You are so busy, even if you have arrangements, it will become a problem." There is no arrangement."

"Are you blaming me?" Zhao Jili pulled the ends of her hair back from her hand, his tone was half a smile, and he glanced at her from the corner of his eyes.

"No." Qin Jueheng didn't care, smiled casually, and drove the car out of the street.

The atmosphere between the two of them suddenly changed to an unfamiliar one overnight, and no one could tell what kind of trend this was.Qin Jueheng was happy to see this, but Zhao Jili occasionally felt a little dazed.

But in the end it is good.Zhao Jili didn't think about such complicated things, she only knew that things are much better now than before.As for the future, she doesn't have to worry about whether Qin Jueheng will revert to his old ways - if Qin Jueheng has the courage, she can fight back with all her strength.

Now she is no longer young, and in a few years, it may be really hard to say who will win the status contest between her and Qin Jueheng.

Thinking about it, she suddenly gave Qin Jueheng a fierce look.

"?" Qin Jueheng noticed this look, and looked back at Zhao Jili innocently: "What's wrong, Jili?"

"You'd better not lie to me." Zhao Jili said, "I'm not young anymore, before you figure out how to treat me, you should also consider my reaction."

Say what? The kid is really terrified.When Qin Jueheng heard her warning him in such a vicious tone, he didn't know whether it was more amused or more heartbroken.

After a moment of daze, she smiled and sighed, shook her head and replied, "I won't lie to you, I never lied to you."

"I've always liked you, Ji Li." Qin Jueheng's voice was a little light, but it was true and close at hand.

The car drove out of the intersection and met the first red light.With more than 50 seconds left, Qin Jueheng turned off the fire, turned to look at Zhao Jili who was beside him with a serious expression.

"Don't worry, and you don't have to be afraid. I regret that I didn't give you the sense of security I wanted, and I also regret that my methods have been so outrageous." Qin Jueheng stretched out his hand and patted Zhao Jili's thigh lightly, smiling A little comfort, like touching a kitten, gathered together fingertips and scratched Zhao Jili's knee: "I blame myself for being too slow, I have never been able to know what you want. But I know now, Jili, as long as you tell me I will give you whatever you want."

This sentence was so familiar that Zhao Jili was in a trance for a second.

She still wanted to say something, but tens of seconds had passed in silence, the light at the intersection turned from red to green, and Qin Jueheng also turned his gaze back and looked at the road ahead.

Zhao Jili was drooping his eyes and thinking, when he heard Qin Jueheng next to him quietly add another sentence: "---Trust me, okay?"

The tone of these words is gentle and soft, no one can imagine that such a person will have a strong and cold side based on such a sentence alone.

So for a moment, Zhao Jili was almost coaxed by Qin Jueheng's gentle tone, but she finally recovered.

"That depends on President Qin's performance." Zhao Jili smiled, she tilted her head and stared at Qin Jueheng's profile.

Her tone was a little sly and unpredictable.Qin Jueheng glanced at her distractedly while he was seriously looking at the road, but he still couldn't figure out whether she was joking or serious about what she said.

But it doesn't matter what it means, Qin Jueheng replied in a long tone: "OK."

After finishing speaking, she gave Zhao Jili a sideways glance with a smile.The eye waves seemed to be full of light, and the slender eyelashes trembled slowly in the blink of an eye, and the eyes were half-opened and half-closed, looking blurred and hazy.

This glance was only for a second, but Zhao Jili felt as if something scratched his heart.This hook hooked into her heart, it was light and itchy, making her want to reach out and cover Qin Jueheng's eyes for no reason.

----Is this a wink? It took several seconds after Qin Jueheng withdrew his gaze before Zhao Jili realized what it meant.

Qin Jueheng is very good-looking, this is a fact that Zhao Jili has always known and is used to.This beauty is romantic and charming with a romantic atmosphere, a beauty that is full of maturity, but such a woman who is more than ten years older than her often still makes some childish behaviors in front of her.

For example, after this clearly breathtaking wink, Qin Jueheng suddenly pushed with the tip of his tongue, blowing out a bubble.
