unexpected rain

After Lin opened his eyes, his five senses slowly recovered. The light in the room was not dazzling, and there were voices coming from far and near. Who was speaking?

"...Add [-]% more investment to stabilize them temporarily. Tell Secretary Wang, contact Mr. Liu, and find a suitable time..."

Lin could vaguely see a slender and straight figure from the back. This perspective was familiar and long-lost, and he almost subconsciously blurted out "Shifang".

But fortunately, he regained his sanity in the next second and really woke up.

This is where?Why would he share a room with Xiang Shifang?

Lin Ji frowned and recalled the memory of the last moment before he fell asleep, he didn't notice that Xiang Shifang had finished talking on the phone, turned around and walked to his side.

"Are you awake?" Xiang Shifang's voice was low and soft, like a handful of hot spring water.

Lin Ji was taken aback, half of his face retracted into the quilt, a little defensive.

Xiang Shifang's eyes darkened for a moment, he adjusted the angle of the bed for Lin Ji, let Lin Ji sit up, and said, "You have a high fever, I sent you to the hospital."

Lin Ji glanced around quickly, the decoration here was very familiar to him, it was a branch of a private hospital invested by Xiang Shifang.

He remembered that he had passed out in the kitchen this morning.

"Where's Gaga?" Lin Ji asked.

Xiang Shifang's back molars clenched together quietly, Lin Ji cared most about the child right now.

"He's next door, eating and playing, okay." Xiang Shifang's tone was slightly awkward.

"I'll go and have a look." Lin Ji wanted to get out of bed.

"Don't move." Xiang Shifang pressed Lin Ji's shoulder through the quilt.

Lin froze.

Xiang Shifang's fingers were slightly bent, and he held Lin Ji's shoulder with an indistinguishable strength, "You just woke up, let the doctor check it for you first." After saying this, he covered Lin Ji's forehead with his other hand .

Lin Ji opened his eyes wide in astonishment.

Xiang Shifang quickly took it away, "The fever is gone."

Lin pushed Xiang Shifang's hand away, turned his face away, and silently resisted.

Xiang Shifang was not discouraged, sat beside him and asked someone to bring Jiajia over.

"Father!" Jia Jia shouted happily when she saw Lin Ji.

Seeing his son, Lin Ji's expression eased, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Let's eat! The assistant uncle took me to KFC's children's set meal, and I was full!" Gaga said.

"That's good." Lin Ji smiled.

Xiang Shifang saw Lin Ji's softened eyebrows and eyes, and his heart was like boiled acid water, but he couldn't show it, and maintained a kind appearance and said, "Lin Ji, are you hungry too? What do you want to eat?"

Lin Ji said, "Don't bother, we'll go home right away."

Indeed, Lin's fever has also subsided, so there is no reason for him to continue to be hospitalized.But fortunately, it was almost eleven o'clock in the evening, and Xiang Shifang still had a reason to send them home.

Lin and Jiajia sat in the back seat, and the interior lights automatically turned off when the car started. Xiang Shifang worked hard as a driver, and his only regret was that he had an extra child.

Jia Jia was next to Lin Ji, whispering to him in a low voice, but the space in the car was small and quiet, and Xiang Shifang could hear what they were saying even in the front.

"Dad, I was so scared when I saw you lying on the ground..."

"Scared you?"

"I don't even know what to do. I wanted to go out and ask for help, but I forgot to take the key, so I locked you inside."

"Anything else?"

"Fortunately, the uncle next door came out, and he sent you to the hospital."

Xiang Shifang's steering wheel is about to be crushed, what a rude child, what is "the uncle next door"?

"Fortunately, he is here, otherwise Dad would be in danger."

Lin Ji glanced lightly at the rearview mirror, and happened to meet Xiang Shifang.

Looking at each other for three seconds, Lin Ji looked away as if nothing had happened.

Xiang Shifang's eyes were bent, obviously nothing happened, but there was a dense sweetness in his heart.

But after a while, he heard Jia Jia whispering again: "Dad, when you fell asleep, Uncle Xiang was holding you and sleeping with you."

Lin Ji: "..."

Xiang Shifang: "..."

Gaga: "The doctor said that if you have a fever, you need someone to hold it to reduce the fever. Is that true?"

Lin couldn't bear it anymore, and stared forward, while Xiang Shifang kept his eyes on the car and concentrated on driving.

Gaga's spirit of exploration is very persistent, always chasing and asking "really?"Lin Ji had to give him an answer.

"No." Lin Ji gritted his teeth, "That's hooliganism, don't learn."

After sending Lin Ji and his son to the door of their house, Xiang Shifang gave out a key, "It's an emergency today. I broke the door of your house. The locksmith replaced the lock with a new one. This is the key."

Lin Ji took it silently, and opened the door to let Jiajia in first, then he turned around and faced Xiang Shifang, "Thank you today..."

"Don't thank me." Xiang Shifang interrupted him gently, "I have nothing to thank for what I have done. Remember to eat something when you go home, and take medicine before going to bed. If you feel unwell in the middle of the night, call Jia Jia Come to me. Good night."

Lin opened his lips slightly, but didn't know what to say, and finally he only said "good night" in a low voice.

On Monday, Gaga was going to learn violin from the teacher again, but today Gaga was very reluctant, her mouth was pouted, and her shoes were slippery.

"What's the matter today, did you get angry when you got up?" Lin waited for him with his bag, and today the bag was full, including yogurt, chocolate, fudge, seaweed... Jiajia is still so young, so she has to study for two hours a day violin, so Lin Ji always packs a lot of Gaga's favorite things.

Gaga shook her head, but the expression on her face was unwilling.

Lin didn't think much about it, just smiled and rubbed his hair, "Okay, have you been lazy at home for only two days? Study hard today, and Dad will take you to the restaurant for dinner tonight."

Hearing this Gaga was a little happier, but not as excited as usual.

In the afternoon, Lin went to pick up Jiajia, and when he entered the room, he saw Jiajia sitting on the sofa sullenly, while the teacher's two children were playing and laughing on the balcony, trying to grab each other's snacks.

"Gaga, your father is here." The teacher called out.

Jiajia carried her small schoolbag and walked to Lin Ji with her head down.

"What's the matter, son, you look so unhappy." Lin Ji knelt down and faced Gaga face to face.

The teacher said: "Just now when Jiajia accidentally broke a cup while playing, I told him a few words. I didn't feel sorry for the cup, but because I was afraid that he would hurt his hands. We, the violin players, are very sensitive to this."

Lin looked at Gaga and asked, "Is that so?"

Gaga's mouth was flattened, and she nodded aggrievedly.

Since Lin knew Jia Jia well, the child would not have such an attitude if he made a mistake, so he had doubts in his heart.After bringing Gaga out, the little guy cheered up after a while, chirping and asking where to eat today.

Lin Ji took him to a porridge shop, where he ate fresh and sweet seafood porridge, crispy spring rolls, and Jiajia's favorite crispy char siu.

After returning home after eating, Lin Ji also packed half a portion of boiled fresh shrimps for his aunt. While peeling the skins, he said, "Jiajia, you have learned the piano for so long, can you play a section for Dad?"

Gaga's expression changed from sunny to rainy, and he frowned and said, "I still can't play the complete song..."

Lin Ji said: "It doesn't matter, just show what you have learned."

Jiajia slowly took out the violin, walked to Lin Ji and set it up. After more than half a month of learning, Jiajia's posture had a certain shape, but he was not very familiar with it, and his hands were not fully coordinated. The tune that was pulled out was also slowly, note by note falling out.Lin knew that what he was playing was "Edelweiss".

Everything went smoothly, but in the second paragraph, Gagara made a wrong key.

This should have been a small mistake, but Gaga put down the violin, her little face flushed.

Lin Ji smiled and said, "It's okay baby, keep pulling."

Gaga was trembling all over, with tears in her eyes, "I made a mistake again, I'm so stupid, so stupid!"

Lin Ji was startled, and immediately put down what he was doing, washed his hands in a hurry, squatted down and hugged Jiajia into his arms, "Who said you are stupid? Don't cry, don't cry, it's just a mistake, you just learned Isn't it?"

Gaga cried and said, "But the teacher said I was the stupidest student she ever took care of."

"The teacher said you?" Lin Ji frowned, and the scattered doubts in his heart suddenly connected together. First, the abnormality that Jiajia had to go home last Friday, then the "squeamishness" in the teacher's mouth, and then sending Jiajia away today When the teacher was home, Jiajia had negative emotions, and finally now, Jiajia broke down and cried.

Lin is so distressed that he doesn't know what to do. This is a five-year-old child. If he encounters a problem, if he is not resolved in time, it may become his shadow for the rest of his life.

"Teacher nonsense, you are the smartest kid." Lin Ji hugged Gaga and coaxed him to the living room.

Jia Jia hugged Lin Ji's neck tightly, sobbing, "But..."

"No but." Lin sat on the sofa and let Jia Jia sit on his lap, "Do you listen to father or teacher?"

Gaga said, "Listen to Dad."

"Well, good boy." Lin Ji stroked the back of Gaga's head.

Jiajia cried for a while and then stopped. He was very embarrassed to wet Lin Ji's shoulders, and wiped it shyly with a tissue.

"What happened to the teacher, tell Dad." Lin Ji said.

Jia Jia said in a low voice, although the teacher is professional, but greedy, she sees that Jia Jia's family is excellent, she has a good-tempered father with a lot of money, so she always insinuates that Jia Jia and Lin will both Qian, Ke Jiajia is sensible, just want to learn the violin, don't want to buy those messy books and care.The teacher didn't know what to do, and began to verbally abuse Jiajia, saying that he was stupid, that he had no talent, and that it was useless to learn.Not only that, but Jiajia’s food there is not good. Even the snacks that Lin brought to him are taken away by the teacher every day, which is called "sharing". add something.

It was almost the same as what Lin Ji had guessed, but it still made Lin Ji very angry when his son said it.

"Why didn't you tell Dad?" Lin Ji asked.

"You have to work. A good boy can't make Dad worry." Gaga said, "That's what the teacher told me."

Lin Ji held his breath in his chest, he hadn't been so angry for a long time, he wanted to say "silly boy", but he swallowed it back, he couldn't blame Gaga, Gaga was still so young, there were many things he didn't understand, he just Knowing and sensible, so the teacher can take advantage of it.

"Jajia, listen to what Dad said." Lin looked at Jiajia and said seriously, "A good boy is not a ignorant patient. He doesn't hide it from his family when he encounters bad people and things, thinking that it will make them worry. , It’s not like this. Don’t hide your feelings. If you are unhappy or you are bullied, you have to say it. You think about your father. Dad is very touched. But if you don’t tell your father when you are hurt, your father will blame himself, feel distressed, and feel very sad. sad."

Gaga pursed her mouth and was about to cry again, "Dad..."

"It's okay, little crying bag, my eyes are swollen." Lin Ji said with a smile, "Can I make you some fruit to eat? Let the unhappiness pass, and Dad will protect you."

Gaga nodded vigorously.

My aunt is an outsider cat, she doesn't understand what these two are talking about, but she smells the shrimp in Lin Ji's hand, so she sneaks up to nibble on it.

The atmosphere at home became warm and peaceful again, but Lin knew that the anger in his chest was still there, and he had to get an explanation.

The next morning, Lin entrusted Jia Jia to the elementary school teacher upstairs, and then he took the elevator downstairs.

The elevator stopped on the third floor, and Xiang Shifang walked in.

"Morning, what a coincidence." Xiang Shifang said with a little joy.

Lin's face was dark and he didn't speak.

Xiang Shifang was a little frustrated, his naturally cold eyes were moist at this moment, looking at Lin Ji with some anxiety, "What's wrong?"

The elevator door opened with a ding, and Lin Ji replied bluntly, "It's okay." Then he walked out.

Xiang Shifang followed Lin Ji step by step. Now Lin Ji put on a "don't talk to me" attitude clearly, and he kept silent knowingly, but after watching Lin Ji get into the car, Xiang Shifang's mind turned rapidly. Since Lin came down from upstairs, he didn't have any children around him, so the children won't be going to interest classes today?

A few seconds later, he seemed to understand something, his eyes sank slightly.

He took out his mobile phone, "Help me find someone. He teaches violin in Rong City. His job should also be related to music. His address is probably less than five kilometers away from XX community..."
