comet tail

At the gate of the community, it was as if the whole person suddenly came to his senses, and he didn't dare to open it again.

It had been years since she had last been here.

At that time, she was still a college student. Firstly, she came to pass the time and secondly, to earn some pocket money, so she took this tutoring job.

She still remembered the first time she saw Lin Zixin.

She was wearing the school uniform of a private school, and the navy blue skirt covered her knees. She looked very well-behaved, but the cat's eyes on her young and tender baby face were full of bright refusal to admit defeat, which made people want to go tease.

In the beginning, it was really just for fun.

Seeing her every time she flaunts her teeth and claws until finally defeated reluctantly, I feel soft and sweet in my heart, and before I know it, I become unable to stop, until one day, I find that even when I can't see each other, I always feel It was only when he thought of the little girl's bulging cheeks and flushed angry face that Jiang Li suddenly realized...it seemed...a bit bad.

She's just an underage girl, and she's still her own student——on one side is a sincere little angel of justice.

Who didn't come from a little girl who was underage, besides, what kind of teacher is a part-time tutor--on the other side, there is an evil little devil who is good at seduction.

During those days, every time Jiang Li came here, it was really... a sweet torment.

until……

Suddenly someone knocked on the car window, pulling Jiang Li back from her wild thoughts. She rolled down the car window, and the young security guard in uniform outside smiled at her politely and said, "Miss, you can't park here."

"Uh, oh...then I..." She wanted to say drive in, but she suddenly changed her mind, "I'll drive away right away."

After finishing his speech, he took another look into the community, and then started the engine.

Back home, Jiang Li took out her cell phone to check it as usual—since Lin Zixin hadn't heard from her in the past few days, she checked her cell phone more and more frequently.

I don't know... Did Lin Zixin live a life like this when she left without saying goodbye?

How to say that sentence...Feng Shui turns around.

There are no unseen calls or unread text messages, only push notifications from a few apps.

Jiang Li is actually a bit obsessive-compulsive. Normally, even if she doesn't read those push messages one by one, she will definitely click on the app to erase the little red dots that indicate that there are notifications. But today she is really not in the mood. Throwing himself on the sofa, pursing his lips, he stared at the word "Little Hedgehog" in the address book for a moment, and finally clicked on WeChat.

All kinds of group messages pushed the profile picture of Lin Zixin, who had never replied, to a place where she couldn't see it.

There is also an update notification in the circle of friends. I clicked it subconsciously out of boredom, but unexpectedly saw unexpected content.

Lin Zixin posted several photos. The background is the blue sea, blue sky and sunny beach. She is wearing a bikini. Although she is loosely covered by a sari, she still cannot conceal her exquisite curves. Instead, she adds a bit of sexiness to a pure and sweet baby face seductive.

A few single photos, and some group photos, all of them are foreigners who are about the same age as her, both men and women, some of them are on her shoulders, and a few are intimately wrapped around her waist, as if they can see through the screen. Feel the laid-back and cheerful atmosphere of the island.

Good guy!She was all kinds of uneasy here, but the worried person ran to Phuket Island for vacation with ease.It's really...

Jiang Li was a little dumbfounded.

In all fairness, she would often feel frustrated by Lin Zixin, but most of the time, she was willing to fight and suffer. But this time's defeat really made her feel... a heavy weight in her heart.

After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Li found Lin Zixin's profile picture who had been flooded by group messages. The emoji she sent two days ago was still hanging there alone, without any reply.

"When will you be back?" She sent another message.

Waited for a few minutes, no response.

She called her again, but no one answered.Sighing, I had no choice but to open WeChat, this time I stopped typing, and said directly: "You must at least give me a chance to say it?"

With a helpless and pitiful tone, Lin Zixin sat on the deck chair in the wooden house and drank cocktails. He heard these words over and over again, and the corners of his lips could not help but slightly raised. Put down the phone and ran over.

Jiang Li didn't wait for Lin Zixin's reply. Fortunately, he finally waited until she came back from vacation, but...she didn't come back alone.

opinionated

Lin Zixin didn't answer the phone or reply to the message, but the update of Moments was extremely diligent.

Every day, Jiang Li could see her in the arms of all kinds of handsome men and beauties in a cool and cool body, and would gnash her teeth every day, but if she really wanted to go up and complain, she really felt that... she couldn't hold back her face.

The other party must have done it on purpose.

Jiang Li couldn't help but speculate in this way depressed, but immediately after that, Lin Zixin's chin raised his provocative expression: "It's on purpose, what?"

Facing such a proud and self-willed little hedgehog, Jiang Li couldn't help touching his nose, feeling as if he had touched ashes.

Thinking about not seeing is pure, but still can't help but want to see, Jiang Li thought that he had fled for several years, he thought that if he hadn't practiced like calm water, at least he should be able to do a job with ease, but he didn't expect...but it seems to be worse than before.

"Oh, I owed it in my previous life."

Lin Zixin posted an update on Moments again, holding a handsome blond guy on his arm, smiling more charmingly than the sparkling waves on the sea.

Jiang Li stared for a long while, and finally he could only sigh slowly, before he buried his head to read the half-written thesis.

Xie Canglan only rested for two days, and she appeared in BAE's laboratory early on Thursday morning. She did not expect someone to arrive earlier than her—it was actually Jiang Li, who was sitting in front of the computer, holding a mobile phone, He was moaning.

A trace of surprise flashed across Xie Canglan's face, he hesitated for a moment, then walked over, bent his index finger and tapped lightly on the corner of the table.

Jiang Li was a little frightened, his hand shook, and the phone fell on the table with a "slap", he raised his head in a daze, saw that it was Xie Canglan, and was taken aback for another moment, as if he finally came to his senses, he breathed a sigh of relief, Then he frowned and said, "You're all right? Why don't you rest for a few more days?"

Xie Canglan replied indifferently: "I'm fine."

Jiang Li narrowed his eyes in disapproval, and after a while, as if he suddenly thought of something, he suddenly pursed his lips and smiled.

Seeing this, Xie Canglan was a little puzzled at first, but after a while she realized something, and couldn't help but narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Tsk, I just thought I was still working under Evan." Jiang Li complained.

Evan was the director of the business unit where Jiang Li and Xie Canglan worked when they were still in the British headquarters. He was a polite British gentleman. Every time he saw Jiang Li fishing at work, he would run over and knock on her desk like this. Horn, showing a mischievous smile when he saw how startled she was.

And Xie Canglan worked with Evan earlier than Jiang Li, and also got into these little habits. Sometimes she came to Jiang Li to see that she lowered her head and didn't notice her when she was doing things, and would knock on the corner of the table, which always caused Jiang Li to be angry Complain, but still refuse to change after repeated admonitions.

"In fact, most likely he also finds it interesting." Xie Canglan answered, there should be something else to say later, but for some reason he didn't continue to say it.

Jiang Li glanced at her, and the smile that was originally just nostalgia gradually became a little helpless. After thinking about it, she said: "Evan always said that you are his right-hand man, and he is very optimistic about you."

"Well, he did say that all the time before you came." Xie Canglan said this in a very flat tone, without any hint of jealousy or resentment.

But Jiang Li felt a sting in her heart, Xie Canglan's indifferent look made her feel that she was a little bit like a villain when she continued talking.

Xie Canglan was actually on the candidate list when he was on the talent wall.Although she was not considered a senior researcher at that time, she was already well-known in the industry because of her hard work and made a lot of achievements. Another British candidate was chosen.

But unexpectedly, Evan counted as the decisive vote and finally gave it to Jiang Li.

At that time, Jiang Li had been in BAE for less than a year. In fact, it was an exception to be included in the shortlist. As a result, he became the first Asian face on the talent wall, and he was even more famous for a while.

For losing the election, Xie Canglan didn't show much disappointment, she congratulated Jiang Li quite generously, and worked hard as always, as if everything was the same.

It's just that looking back now, although I can't cite any obvious examples, it is true that since then, Xie Canglan seems to treat herself a little differently in terms of details.

It's not alienation, it's not defensive, and there is no fierce competition, but Xie Canglan's gaze when looking at her always seems to be flickering from time to time with something that Jiang Li can't figure out.

Until later, when the two were transferred back to City S, Xie Canglan almost mercilessly forced Jiang Li to back down.

"Why?" As if talking to himself, Jiang Li lowered his head and asked softly.

Even now, she still doesn't understand why Xie Canglan treats her like this.

She was the one who introduced her to BAE, and they worked together in the laboratory to overcome scientific research problems side by side, and took care of each other's difficulties and hardships in a foreign country, and there were even some... some specious moments.

I don't know what he thought of, but a trace of embarrassment flashed across Jiang Li's face.

Xie Canglan, who was standing aside, didn't miss this subtle expression. She glanced at the woman lying on the bed.
