If love could come back
47 · Well-intentioned
My heart is full of apologies.
The big brother's words were too obvious to chase away guests, even if there were no bad words, it would be rude enough, just listening to it would feel very harsh, let alone how uncomfortable it was, let alone Kingsley.
She didn't want to see Kingsley bear this kind of cynicism at all, and she felt even more sorry when she thought that she had just "waited on the sidelines".
After finding an excuse to leave Xu Guoan's restaurant, she took a detour and turned in another direction.
The last time she came here seemed to be a long time ago, but when she walked outside the door of the laboratory, she found that the door was closed tightly, and through the glass on the door, she could confirm that there was no one inside.
Didn't you say you were going back to the lab?
Turn your heels, will it be over there in the office?
The hallway leading to the office is clean, wide and quiet.
At this time, she was alone, subconsciously walking lightly, and slowly came to the door of the office with his nameplate hanging on it. When she raised her hand, she found that the door was only ajar, and bursts of hearty laughter were coming from inside.
Knocking on the door froze, realizing that he might be busy, so she withdrew her hand and was about to leave, but when she turned around, a sentence floating out of her inadvertently caught her attention.
"If I hadn't been in a hurry to fly to London, I would really like to meet this amazing young lady."
Why does this voice sound familiar?
"I won't believe you didn't see her." A warm and clean voice sounded with a slight smile.
"You know, I mean a formal meeting. Even if I know her location, I can only 'see' from the podium so far away."
She was slightly startled, and finally remembered who the owner of the voice was.
"What kind of person can make you make an exception and 'go through the back door'? It's fine to 'go through the back door', but you can't let her know what good things you have done."
Kingsley was famously gentle among their circle of friends, but that didn't mean he was unprincipled.So when he received a call from Kings, he was quite surprised. Is this a back door through a relationship?
In order to please others, the big professor who is so principled usually uses such improper methods, it is even more interesting to think about it.
"From what you've said, what I've done doesn't seem to be a 'good thing', right?" The familiar voice was always gentle and calm, just a little more self-compassionate.
Then, there were low tacit laughter from the two men in the office.
"I just don't want her to feel burdened, or feel indebted to me."
"I hope I'm hallucinating."
The cautiousness in Kingsley's words made him slightly surprised, but he was more puzzled. Then he thought about it and realized that there must be bumps and bumps between the two of them, so he smiled with deep understanding and said: "You You know? You made me so curious that I can't wait to meet this person who you cherish so much that you can't bear to give even a little pressure."
Hearing the last words, Xu Xiaoli pursed her lips and tiptoed back, not wanting to eavesdrop any more.
The person inside was Professor Fok. She had been sitting in the audience listening to his wonderful and lively speech an hour ago, and she could not mistake this voice.
Go through the back door without letting her know...
She wasn't stupid, and their conversation had revealed enough information to teach her what was going on.But, how would Kingsley know?I obviously never mentioned it to him.
"Madam?"
A soft call startled her, and when she turned around, she saw Janet standing there in a snow-white robe.
It's a shame!
It's okay to eavesdrop, but he was caught straight.
"You're looking for Pro—"
"Shh!"
The slender index finger touched her lips lightly, hurriedly beckoning her to keep quiet.
Janet paused, raising her eyebrows puzzled.
Xu Xiaoli stepped forward and pulled Janet to hide in the corner of the corridor together, and looked back in the direction of the office worriedly. The door was still in the open state, then she smiled awkwardly at Janet and said: "I, I Just passing by."
This is really an unconvincing statement, even she herself does not believe it.
Sure enough, Janet smiled elegantly, and the bright eyes flashed with wisdom, staring at her so that she couldn't help but feel guilty.She was not good at lying, so she had to ask in surrender: "Janet, can you not let... anyone know that I have been here?"
anyone?
The penetrating Janet chewed the words in her heart, and quickly discerned the deep meaning, although she didn't know if anything happened between the two of them.She quietly bent her lips, and confirmed in a soft voice: "Including——Professor King?"
In the phrase.
Xu Xiaoli's embarrassment inevitably increased, but she still had to look at Janet with pleading eyes and nodded.
"Okay, I promise you, I won't take the initiative to tell him."
"Thank you!" She immediately breathed a sigh of relief, who couldn't hear the overtones for a moment.
"But, what if he already knows?" The conversation suddenly changed.
what?
Soon, her comprehended heart was first startled, and when she noticed that Janet's gaze clearly passed her and fell to the back, she slowly turned her head, and then froze in embarrassment.
Kingsley was standing behind him at some point, with a smile on his face.
"..."
After Janet nodded at Kingsley, she squeezed her smile, left her and walked away quickly.
Blinking in a daze, she stared at Janet's incomparably beautiful back speechlessly... Janet is his assistant, how could she forget that they belonged to the same country?
"Why can't you let me know?"
Just as she was still too embarrassed to know what to say, he looked at her and asked straight to the point.
Sigh silently, forget it.
"I see you're busy, so I don't want to disturb you." She paused, "But it's obviously disturbing you."
When he heard it, he couldn't help laughing.
"You will never disturb me." He stretched out his hand to hold her and walked back, and found that she didn't notice it, and let him lead him naturally, with a slight smile on his lips. "Is there something you want to tell me?"
She has always been straightforward, but she also has a sensitive and delicate side. According to his understanding of her, even if he doesn't ask, he can probably guess why he came here.
"Just now—" she pursed her lips, "I apologize to you. Also, Big Brother didn't mean anything malicious."
"I see."
"Brother, he's not usually like this. I'm afraid you'll feel uncomfortable after hearing what he said." As she spoke, she turned her face worriedly to observe his expression.
"Actually, I feel a little uncomfortable, but there's nothing I can do about it."
"I'm sorry, don't take those words to heart. My elder brother is just outspoken. Some things are just for fun, but there is no malicious intention!" She felt even more guilty. "...I don't know what to say except I'm sorry."
Kingsley remained silent, his face looked a little dignified and gloomy, meeting her guilty and worried face.
"Or, invite you to dinner tonight as an apology?" A flash of inspiration was the only thing she could think of at the moment.
After a while, he finally couldn't hide his smile.
"..." She was a little dumbfounded and stopped.
"How can I get my girlfriend to pay for dinner?" He stopped and joked.
"You did it on purpose? Are you playing tricks on me?"
When he heard it, his smile grew stronger, and in exchange for her staring at him reproachfully, she really didn't expect him to be able to play tricks on others!
"If you don't, you'll always worry and feel guilty, right? Don't you think I'm such a narrow-minded person?" He sighed with a smile, with a little innocence on his face. "I can understand your elder brother, so I won't be worried about it. Don't worry about it because of me or a small thing. Your elder brother loves you very much, and I'm too late to be happy. Still, Do I look so fragile and incapable of bearing?"
She was dubious, and moved closer unconsciously, wanting to look at his expression carefully, but she didn't notice the sudden closeness between them.
"Are you really okay?"
Looking at the temptation in front of him, thinking about where he was, he just naturally leaned over and pressed a kiss on the corner of her lips, and then backed away, with a strong smile flashing across his black eyes.
The person who was suddenly attacked was stunned, and finally came to his senses, his pretty face flushed red quickly, extremely shy and at a loss, in the end he could only stare at him.
"If you are so nervous about me, what else will happen?"
This time, even the ears are hot.
She was obviously serious, but, but he seems to be serious too?Seeing his expression couldn't be more natural, it's just that those eyes shining brightly with a smile made her dare not look directly, and she drooped her eyelashes, trying to cover up the shy eyes that were avoiding everywhere.
"...Well, since it's okay, I won't disturb your work, bye." He simply pretended to be an ostrich, pretending that nothing happened, and prepared to evacuate quickly.
"and many more."
But the instigator who caused her to flee in a hurry didn't seem to want to give up, just as she passed by her side, he grasped her hand quickly with sharp eyesight.
"What, what's wrong?"
Turning to look at that handsome face, the blush on his face was hard to fade and he felt his heart beating faster.
"Didn't you say you wanted to invite me to dinner?"
He raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.
She was stunned, staring at him innocently and puzzled, didn't you just say - easily see through her pure thoughts, the thin lips curled into an extremely gentle and charming arc.
"You treat me, I pay the bill."
