comet tail

/Goes over and gently pushes her.

"Hmm...what are you doing?" Lin Zixin turned her face to the side, unwilling to open her eyes, she just asked softly.

"Well... something happened to Xie Canglan, I'll take a look."

Lin Zixin didn't move, and after a few seconds, she opened her eyes to meet Jiang Li's gaze.

There was still tiredness in her eyes, but there was more surprise and a... extremely subtle smile.

Jiang Li didn't know why, but felt a little embarrassed, so he involuntarily looked away slightly.

"Would you like me to go with you?"

"Do you want to sleep or do you want to go and see?"

"..." Lin Zixin thought for a while, then buried her head back in the pillow, "Go by yourself, let me know if you need help."

Jiang Li thought to himself how much help you can do for this kind of thing, but he still responded, and just about to leave, he suddenly realized something, turned around and pulled the little girl up from the sofa: "Go to the bedroom, catch a cold What should I do? Are your feet still hurting?"

"Oh, Jiang Li, you are so annoying, let me sleep, hiss, my feet hurt..."

When Jiang Li arrived at BAE, he bumped into Bella head-on.

When the latter saw her, he raised his eyebrows unsurprisingly, and said in disapproval, "Are you so nosy?"

"What's going on?" Jiang Li asked, pretending not to hear the irony in her words.

Bella pursed her lips, lowered her eyes and replied in a very official way: "Until the results of the investigation come out, I have no comment. But...she is in the office."

Jiang Li nodded and went upstairs.

It was the weekend, and there was no one in the research center building. When Jiang Li walked outside the office area of ​​the R&D department, he stopped suddenly, and hesitated for a moment whether he should go in or not.

At such a time, Xie Canglan must be herself the last person she wants to see, not to mention, even if she goes in, what can she say to her?

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard someone knock on the glass door, Jiang Li looked up in a daze, and saw Xie Canglan standing on the other side of the door, with neither sadness nor joy on his face, always indifferent, as if such a big thing hadn't happened .

Xie Canglan opened the door first: "Do you want to come in?"

"Uh... oh, good." Jiang Li bowed his head and went in.

They went to a small conference room, Jiang Li was a little surprised at first, Xie Canglan saw it, and explained calmly: "My office has been locked, and all the permissions to enter the system and laboratory have also been frozen, but because There is no conclusion, so I am not prohibited from walking around for the time being."

Jiang Li said "Oh" in a dazed manner.

"Why are you here? Y University should have been notified of the suspension of the cooperation case."

The calmer she was, the more calm Jiang Li saw in her eyes.

Although she has indeed done unrighteous things to herself, in the bottom of her heart, Jiang Li has never had even the slightest ill feeling towards her. Jiang Li has always admired Xie Canglan's intelligence and hard work. She may hide her schemes and tricks, but in the end ...is not a great evil person.

If she didn't care too much about the career she worked so hard on, how could she use tricks to drive herself out of BAE, so now...how is it possible?

"It's Hu Jingyun?" Jiang Li asked as if he suddenly thought of the name.

Xie Canglan glanced at her as a tacit consent.

"I reminded you to be careful of her. She has too many thoughts and will drag you into the water one day. What did you do? Tell me, and I will find a way."

Seeing Jiang Li's anxious face, Xie Canglan smiled instead.

She actually seldom smiles, but Jiang Li has seen it many times, but she really doesn't like Xie Canglan's smile at the moment, it doesn't matter what makes her feel uncomfortable.

Then she heard Xie Canglan's even more indifferent voice: "It's already too late, since I kicked you out together with her, I have no turning back."

Jiang Li felt like a lump in his throat, unable to speak.

After being quiet for a while, it was Xie Canglan who spoke again, but what she said made Jiang Li a little...unexpected.

"Jiang Li," she called her, her tone was still like bland boiled water, "You are right, we are not suitable. I care too much about my own efforts, and I have worked hard, but in the end I still have nothing."

Jiang Li opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't utter a single syllable.

Xie Canglan smiled understandingly, stood up and tidied up her clothes: "Let's go, although access is not restricted, but in the current situation, it's not good to stay too long."

Jiang Li followed her out of the R&D center without making a sound, and the two of them were having a good time at the parking lot. Jiang Li looked at the silver car that was getting farther and farther away in the rearview mirror, and he held his breath in his chest, unable to vomit it out.

In the end, BAE showed some affection to Xie Canglan. One month later, she resigned just like Jiang Li did back then, but there was no further information about her whereabouts. Jiang Li only vaguely heard from Xilin that she seemed to have gone to Northern Europe.

After the dust settled, the cooperation project with University Y was finally restarted, but Lin Zixin had already resigned as an intern, and Jiang Li was honestly not interested, so he simply said hello to Luo Ning, and received a letter from the team. Withdrew and concentrated on writing articles and teaching.

During this period, Lin Zixin didn't know what she was busy with, and she still didn't attend Jiang Li's class. Jiang Li ran past the campus a few times like a deer watching her, and vaguely saw Lu Mingsen waiting for her at the school gate.

This made Jiang Li feel very uncomfortable, but she couldn't find a chance to ask her, no... Even if she had the chance, she still felt that she would not be embarrassed to be jealous of her, so she had to grind her teeth in her heart.

Until one day when Chen Muxi came to visit her, the two of them sat in her office for a while, and saw Lin Zixin bouncing towards Lu Mingsen outside the window. " With a sound, I couldn't help laughing out loud while listening to the side for a long time.

"My childhood sweetheart is quite cute." Chen Muxi squinted her eyes and watched Jiang Li clean up the debris.

"Well."

"You don't care?"

"It's none of my business." The tone was very light, but the fragments of teacups on the ground were really not convincing.

Chen Muxi shook her head, put down her teacup, and said, "Recently, Gu Qingzhun has been looking for me, even Luo Ning has been there a few times, with a loving mother's attitude, looking at me like a daughter-in-law."

As he spoke, he smiled with a hint of sarcasm, and Jiang Li noticed that she had called her by her first name, so he couldn't help but glance at her, and he didn't miss it.

"I've told you before, don't imitate her if you have nothing to do, one is not good, and the other is... How can you learn that she is ruthless?"

Jiang Li's hand holding the broom paused, and then a wry smile appeared on his face: "But, I just don't understand her now."

Chen Muxi turned her head slightly, pretending to be listening attentively.

Jiang Li pondered for a while, and simply said that he had skin-to-skin relationship with the little girl, but the little girl didn't take herself seriously and told his friend, who raised his eyebrows and smiled after hearing this, and his tone suddenly felt a little bitter steel.

"Thinking about it the other way around, you've eaten people up, why are you so unprecious?"

"I... oh... I see."

It's really a word that wakes up the dreamer.

Whoever Lin Zixin is, every penny is bound to be revenge, and since she has confirmed Jiang Li's intentions, she naturally cannot let go of the opportunity to be proud of her favor—"I've been chasing you for so long, it's up to you to chase after you!" Me!"

It's just... Jiang Li stroked his chin and had some ideas in his mind.

On the day of the exam, Jiang Li finally saw Lin Zixin who came to class in the classroom.

Jiang Li was wearing a white satin dress with a black bow at the waist, her hair was tied behind her head, revealing two shiny and full pearl earrings on her ears, and she smiled so brightly that people couldn't keep their eyes open .

"As for me, I won't lock people up."

The voice just fell, and there was cheers from below.

Jiang Li clapped his hands to signal everyone to be quiet, and continued to speak: "However, the student with the lowest attendance rate has to help me during the winter vacation."

Then you here look at me, I look at you, in addition to being puzzled and surprised, there are actually some who are gearing up and eager to try—especially the male students who are looking forward to it the most.

And Jiang Li stood beside the podium and glanced around with a smile on his face. His eyes stayed on Lin Zixin in the back row of the classroom for a while, and then moved away clearly.

Sure enough, that evening, Lin Zixin knocked on the door of Jiang Li's office.

Jiang Li, who answered the door, had a hint of helplessness on his face, and said, "Student Lin Zixin, I haven't said who has the lowest attendance rate."

Lin Zixin squinted at her, she looked arrogant and cute.

Although the confrontation between the two was seductive, it was not appropriate after all, so Jiang Li had no choice but to let her in.

The other desk was still unoccupied, and the papers that had just been collected were piled up on it. Seeing Lin Zixin cast his gaze over it, Jiang Li hurriedly said, "Don't think about people's lives."

Lin Zixin shrugged, swaggered over, and sat down on Jiang Li's chair.

"Is there a Coke?" She was not polite.

Jiang Li paused, and actually found a can.

Lin Zixin raised her eyebrows meaningfully when she took it, but Jiang Li pretended not to see it.

"I asked Asen to go out to play during the winter vacation." Lin Zixin said after taking a sip of Coca-Cola.

Jiang Li narrowed his eyes for a moment, and he had a sharp taste, but he spoke in a rascal tone: "Oh, no."

"Why!"

"Because you want to do something for me."

"doing what?"

"Looking up information, translating documents, and analyzing data..."

Lin Zixin looked at Jiang Li bitterly, and suddenly put down the coke can and stood up.

Jiang Li stopped to look at her, and suddenly felt his chest sink, and the little girl was trying to pull herself down by pulling on her clothes.

"Hey, I haven't finished yet."

"Shut up!" He took a bite.

Jiang Li is used to running away, so... Lin Zixin can't help but chase after her, anyway, she can always catch her.

Extra

Xie Canglan's first impression of Jiang Li was actually very shallow.

At that time, she was measuring the data in the laboratory, and someone beside her suddenly called "Senior Sister", and she turned around in a little surprise.
