comet tail

The mobile phone on the table was probably caused by Jiang Li's own settings. The screen didn't go dark because it hadn't been operated for a long time, so she could clearly see that Lin Zixin was wearing a tropical dress on it, happily facing the camera. The appearance of her smile is full of pure meaninglessness that is about to come out, as if the sunshine of the whole world is shining on her.

As if being stabbed, Xie Canglan's pupils shrank for a moment, and when she spoke, she heard her own voice, which was so calm that it was even ruthless: "I can't give nothing in return."

Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, and immediately looked up at her. For a moment, he didn't know whether he should speak or what to say.

She didn't feel enlightened when she got the answer at all, but felt that there was a big stone on her heart, which made her very uncomfortable.

Xie Canglan also looked at her, her expression still as pale as water, her thin figure against the white and monotonous background of the laboratory and the cold equipment, she looked lonely, but she was stalemate and refused to show weakness.

"I said before, I never want to argue with you." Jiang Li finally closed his eyes very tiredly, and his tone was slightly pleading, sounding a little weak.

"I also said that some things don't depend on what you think, but...Jiang Li, I never regarded you as a friend."

What she said was so decisive that Jiang Li turned pale all of a sudden. She seemed to move her mouth subconsciously, but her throat seemed to be strangled, and she couldn't even utter a weak syllable.

She frowned and looked at Xie Canglan for a long while, with a bit of unbearable eyes, and finally lowered her eyes and laughed at herself: "I am self-righteous."

Xie Canglan pursed her lower lip, and didn't say a word of approval or disapproval, but a trace of indescribable emotion suddenly disappeared in her eyes.

Other people entered the laboratory one after another, Xie Canglan responded to their greetings as if nothing had happened, and called Rickey by the way, probably had something to order, and took him out of the laboratory.

The rest of Jiang Li was still sitting on the seat, with his head lowered, as if he was still immersed in the conversation just now, for a long time, he sighed deeply.

Fortunately, time always flies when you are busy.

When Jiang Li realized that it was already afternoon, since it was past lunch time, she didn't feel very hungry, so she decided to buy a cup of coffee to refresh herself.

When I went downstairs, I ran into Bella, who happened to be holding two cups of coffee. Jiang Li stared at the red logo with some salivation, and smiled deliberately: "Who did you buy it for?"

Bella glanced at her and said, "Buy one get one free for the event. I originally planned to have a share with everyone, so it's cheaper for you."

Jiang Li took it happily, and the two of them simply took a lazy break together and went to the staff leisure area to sit for a while.

"By the way, are you teaching or not? This shift frequency is the same as when you were still in BAE." After taking a sip of coffee, Bella couldn't help complaining.

"Tsk, the new lecturer doesn't dare to arrange too many classes for me." Jiang Li said vaguely.

"What about Halloween?"

"Ah?" Jiang Li's eyes flickered, obviously pretending to be stupid.

But Bella is not easy to fool: "Silein told you, let you call that little girl, did you call?"

Jiang Li didn't answer, but just showed a bitter smile.

Bella gave a "tsk" and continued: "There's nothing to hide. We're all adults, so we don't discriminate against you. But...I didn't expect you to like juveniles///toothed."

This is so well said...it really made Jiang Li think that it is not right, and it is not good to not, so he continued to smile wryly.

Bella didn't care about Jiang Li's silence, but continued to say, "Well, I think this is better, at least it's more suitable for you than Xie Canglan."

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Li couldn't help being startled, thousands of thoughts seemed to flash through his eyes, and finally he pursed his lips helplessly, and when he retorted, he was slightly lacking in confidence: "I and her... don't have that kind of relationship."

"Who are you referring to? Little Lolita or Xie Canglan?"

Bella and Sirin are both extremely sensitive people. The only difference is that the latter is aggressive, so he can be more or less defensive, while the former is used to not showing any signs... see blood sealing throat.

Jiang Li really stopped.

In principle, she should answer "both ofthem" - after all, she has always called Lin Zixin's student, and Xie Canglan has always been a friend.

But in essence...Jiang Li cannot deny that he has been shaken in his heart, and he has never let go of his longing.

The hand holding the coffee cup tightened, as if it had been a long time, and then slowly relaxed. This is actually not a multiple-choice question. Jiang Li has always known the answer, but she is just late... not really daring to admit it.

"I regard Xie Canglan as a friend, although..." She shrugged and didn't finish the sentence, but the meaning was quite clear

After hearing this, Bella raised her eyebrows, stared at Jiang Li's face carefully for a moment, and then smiled with admiration in her tone: "I really want to get to know this... Well, it's Lin Zi Xin? On Halloween, be sure to bring it with you.”

This topic...why did it come back to the original point?

Jiang Li couldn't help laughing, and in an instant, he changed back to a helpless look: "It's not like I can take it just by saying it."

"Why, it's not done yet?"

Jiang Li turned his face away, as if he was a little shy to talk about it in detail.

Bella immediately showed a disgusted expression. She had finished drinking the coffee in her hand. She stood up and threw away the coffee cup, as if giving advice: "Enough is enough, otherwise, you will regret it later."

I didn't expect to be predicted by her words.When he saw two figures coming out side by side at the arrival gate of the airport, Jiang Li took out his mobile phone impulsively and sent Bella comments with "crow's mouth" one after another.

Jiang Li received the news when he was about to leave work.

At that time, she thought that today, just like the previous two days, would end with hatred because she could only look at the photos Lin Zixin posted in Moments, when she suddenly received a WeChat message from the little girl.

A combination of letters and numbers, apart from that, there is no other explanation.

Jiang Li recognized the flight number at first glance, and immediately checked it online. It was a flight from Bangkok back to City S, and it was expected to arrive at [-] o'clock at night.

She could probably imagine Lin Zixin's appearance after sending this message, she must be idly nestling in the wicker chair, sucking coconut juice while blowing the sea breeze, calmly waiting for Jiang Li to receive the order to thank him.

If possible, Jiang Li really doesn't want her to get her wish, but basically, she has never succeeded in this aspect.

In the end, she had no choice but to resign herself to driving her Roewe towards the airport.

The flight was delayed as expected. The plane originally scheduled to land at [-] o'clock finally arrived nearly three quarters of an hour late. Because it was a late-night flight, there were not many people who picked up the plane, and they were sparsely standing outside the arrival gate.

I don't know if it's because of the cup of coffee I drank just now, but Jiang Li always felt... a little restless, and couldn't help but a little anxiously took out his mobile phone and checked the time. At this time, passengers came out one after another with their luggage Jiang Li, who heard the movement, looked up, and saw Lin Zixin, who was in high spirits with a ponytail tied, and a young man pushing a cart beside her.

The two seemed to be talking about something deeply. Lin Zixin raised her head, her cheeks were flushed with a smile, and she looked very seductive, while the man looked down on her with an unspeakable expression. tenderness.

Unknowingly pressed the corner of her lower lip, Jiang Li walked towards the two of them, Lin Zixin noticed her, smiled slightly, and called out: "Ah, Teacher Jiang."

Jiang Li was startled, and looked at Lin Zixin carefully, seemingly in disbelief. The latter looked like a good baby, and let her look at him frankly.

The man beside her also said politely to Jiang Li: "Hello."

Only then did Jiang Li turn her eyes to him again. When she saw him for the first time, she felt that the boy looked familiar. Now when she looked closer, she finally remembered when and where she had seen him.

Unlike Lin Zixin's baby face, which was not much different from that of a girl, the boy's excessive youthfulness has long since faded away, adding a bit of mature handsomeness.

Lu Mingsen.

Jiang Li remembered that he was called by this name, Lin Zixin's childhood sweetheart, childhood sweetheart.

I couldn't help but "thump" in my heart. I couldn't tell what it was like. Jiang Li lowered his eyes, nodded his head as a response, and then said "Let's go" and turned to open the way.

Not understanding why Jiang Li's reaction was so cold, Lu Mingsen couldn't help but glanced at Lin Zixin next to him as if asking, but saw that the other party was squinting his eyes and looking at Jiang Li's back, with the corners of his lips raised slightly, clearly smiling He looks good, but somehow... his scalp is numb.

The two followed Jiang Li to the parking lot. Lu Mingsen carried Lin Zixin's luggage into the trunk, but his own things did not move.

"Let's go together." Lin Zixin's invitation came naturally.

Lu Mingsen glanced at Jiang Li, and smiled embarrassedly: "Don't bother, I'll just make a taxi myself."

"Anyway, you live very close, so you can drop by. Get in the car." There was still no good expression on his face, but his behavior still retained the grace that an adult should have.

If he tried to evade again, he would seem a little clueless, so Lu Mingsen said "Thank you, that will be troublesome", and obeyed rather than respected.

He had just put his own luggage into the trunk and closed the car lid. Lin Zixin had already opened the passenger seat door and sat in. Lu Mingsen thought about it, and only the back seat was optional. When it opened, it was stunned for a moment. There was a large bouquet of flowers lying on the back seat, occupying most of the seat.

Hearing his "uh", Jiang Li in the driver's seat remembered this.
