Substitutes should also love their jobs and work hard

"Mr. Xiao Li, you are back!"

As soon as Li Li entered, Mrs. Zhang greeted her. The joy in her eyes couldn't be concealed, which made Li Li feel like coming home.

"Well, I'm back."

In such a happy atmosphere, Li Li unconsciously frowned, feeling excited. During his days in country M, he often received things from Jiang Jingchi in the name of Mrs. Zhang, many of which were from his time living in Jiangzhai The little thing he likes very much, but Mrs. Zhang still took it to heart, and made a lot of small vacuum packages for him with all her heart. This friendship is something he will never forget no matter what.

Aunt Zhang excitedly took the luggage from Jiang Jingchi's hand after she finished speaking, "Mr. Jiang, Mr. Xiao Li, let's go inside."

Mrs. Zhang smiled very kindly. Maybe he thought that Mr. Jiang brought Mr. Xiao Li back to the Jiang mansion to reconcile, so she said naturally, "Mr. Xiao Li, your room is still the same as before, it hasn't changed at all. Mr. Jiang specially asked me to clean it every day, just because I was worried that you would come back in a hurry one day and it would be too late to clean it up. It really came in handy today. You can put your luggage in and you can live in it. It’s better to stay at home. How can there be vacuum-packed things? It's delicious, I'll cook whatever Mr. Xiao Li wants to eat."

Mrs. Zhang is really happy to see Li Li again. The old man always has a deeper feeling for the reunion after parting. During the short journey, she kept talking non-stop, but the silence in the air after the end of this passage It made her feel that Mr. Xiao Li's return might not be the kind of return she thought.

"Sister-in-law Zhang, I'm leaving tomorrow morning, so I won't bother you to make lunch."

Li Li didn't know how to explain to Aunt Zhang that he would not stay in Jiang's house all the time, but just stayed overnight, so he decided to tell the truth, he didn't want to deceive her.

Mrs. Zhang's cheerful chatter suddenly stopped, as if the air around her had been paused. Following them along the way, Jiang Jingchi, who unconsciously rolled his eyes, also showed a lonely figure.

"Is this so? That's Mrs. Zhang's mistake. I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao Li. It's fine to leave tomorrow morning, or tomorrow morning." Mrs. Zhang didn't know where to go, but she just repeated these words over and over again. , as if she was trying to convince her of something, within a few seconds, she seemed to think of something again, and said, "Sister-in-law Zhang will make you dinner, you and Mr. Jiang haven't had dinner yet, it will be ready soon." She is going to the kitchen.

"Sister-in-law Zhang, I already had dinner on the plane." Li Li couldn't bear to see the old man's disappointed expression, but he always wanted to leave here. Instead of giving the other party a room for falsehood, it's better to break this situation now. hope.

Jiang Jingchi, who was standing by the side, finally spoke, he didn't want Mrs. Zhang to think that their separation was because of Li Li, "Mrs. Zhang, let Li Li go to the room to pack things first, take a hot bath, and run around for a day. He's tired too."

"Yes, I'll go clean up first, Mrs. Zhang, you should go to bed early too." Li Li still opened his mouth in embarrassment, rubbing his fingers on the luggage handle. He got up and stayed in the most ordinary corridor, and walked into the room quickly as if fleeing.

Mrs. Zhang was right, nothing had changed in the room, except that some of the things he took away were missing, and the angles of the items were even placed exactly the same as when he left.

No trace of dust can be seen with the naked eye, and the house is very clean, so clean that it seems that no one has lived in it for a long time.

Mrs. Zhang, who had already followed Jiang Jingchi to the living room, looked at Jiang Jingchi who was also fading in joy beside her, and asked with worry and doubt, "Mr. Jiang, will Mr. Xiaoli go back to the Jiang residence?"

After Jiang Jingchi knew what Mrs. Zhang was talking about tonight, he lowered his eyelashes and looked in Li Li's direction: "Yes, Mrs. Zhang, I didn't do well before, which made him sad. I already knew I was wrong, and I already Change it, and he will come back."

Jiang Jingchi talked for several times in a row, not sure if he was really sure, or if he was persuading himself not to think about the ending he didn't want to accept.

"That's fine, that's fine."

Of course Mrs. Zhang hoped that Jiang Jingchi and Li Li could reconcile.

When the two separated, he saw with his own eyes how resolute Mr. Xiao Li left, and felt so sad. After Mr. Xiao Li left, Mr. Jiang spent every day in the company and rarely returned to the Jiang residence. I also don't want to live in that empty bedroom without any trace of Mr. Li.

She knew that Mr. Jiang was afraid of being emotional.

In any case, this is a matter between Mr. Jiang and Mr. Xiao Li, and she can't help or intervene.

She accompanied Mr. Jiang from adolescence to youth, and then to being able to be alone. She could see that Mr. Jiang had always been sincere to Mr. Xiao Li, but Mr. Jiang didn't see it clearly before. She liked Mr. Xiao Li very much.

She is getting old, she doesn't want anything, she just sincerely hopes that they can live a good life, no matter how they live and what choices they make, as long as they are happy, this is the most gratifying thing for her.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhang broke away from the ups and downs of seeing Li Li, and remembered that Jiang Jingchi might not have had dinner tonight.

"Mr. Jiang, do you want to eat something? I'll do it." She asked Mr. Jiang who was already much taller than him, and she looked at him growing up.

"No need, Mrs. Zhang, you should go to bed earlier." Jiang Jingchi said flatly, he had no intention of eating or drinking.

Mrs. Zhang was not easy to persuade, and returned to her room after listening to Jiang Jingchi's words.

Ding-dong-

The phone rang, and it was Li Li who had sent a text message.

Jiang Jingchi hadn't opened it yet, he just looked at the phone page and thought: separated by a wall, they can't look into each other's eyes, but communicate with each other through mobile phone messages.But he felt lucky, because this text message at least meant that Li Li was willing to communicate with him, no matter in what way.

Jiang Jingchi recalled Li Li's phone call with him when he was in country M. He knew that Li Li was not completely ruthless to him, but the disappointment he caused Li Li overwhelmed this feeling, and the other party couldn't believe him anymore.

When he heard that Li Li agreed to come to the Jiang residence, he was ecstatic, but he calmed down quickly.

When he heard Li Li say "go to Jiang Zhai" instead of agreeing with his "go home", he knew that he still had a lot to do to restore Li Li's trust in this relationship. deserved.

That night, neither Li Li nor Jiang Jingchi fell asleep. Early the next morning, Jiang Jingchi drove Li Li to the rented place.

Li Li didn't hide it either, he knew that as long as Jiang Jingchi thought about it, he would definitely be able to get his position, so instead of doing this, he might as well expose himself to the other party's eyes.

When he comes back this time, he will soon get his graduation certificate, and this house is also for short-term rent.

He is thinking about going north and returning to his hometown for development. The housing price in his hometown is much lower than that of City C. He should be able to buy a house soon and live an ordinary life. That would be great.

It’s just that the old professor of C University kindly invited him to study as a graduate student, and he also hoped that he could stay in the school to work, so that the C Conference will provide faculty dormitories, and his living cost will not be very high, and this job will allow him to expand his range of activities. Keeping it within C University, the probability of him meeting Jiang Jingchi can be as close to zero as possible, which seems to be a good choice.

These are still under Li Li's consideration.

"Let's go here, I can go up by myself." Li Li spoke first.

"Okay." Jiang Jingchi nodded, expressing his understanding. He took Li Li's luggage out of the car one by one. Every time he took a piece of luggage, Jiang Jingchi felt that the connection between them was reduced by another point.

It’s just a farewell to send you off, not to mention that he has no position to stay here anymore, even if he imagines Li Li moving such heavy luggage up to the dilapidated fifth floor with no elevator bit by bit, another People tidied up the house and put everything in order. When Li Li was doing these things, he couldn't be by his side, so he felt sad, regretful, and distressed so hard that his heart was squeezed.

He drove the car into the alley, checked the corners that Li Li could not see, and watched Li Li slowly carry the luggage up from the rearview mirror of the vehicle. There was a box that was too big and heavy, and the other party might be afraid of knocking it If the box is broken, take out the contents one by one.

Li Li's movements were neat, but there were too many things, he almost moved his home from one place to another, and he moved for nearly an hour.

Jiang Jingchi just watched the figure back and forth from the small rearview mirror until Li Li went upstairs and didn't come down again before leaving.

Carrying the luggage up is only the first step, cleaning up the house is the most important part.

Li Li cleaned up for almost the whole morning. He originally planned to eat a piece of bread at noon, but he received a call from Zhang Yang. The other party originally planned to pick him up at the airport, but he just caught up with the important course. Asking for leave, I had to apologize to Li Li, now that I have finished the general exam, I want to have fun with him.

"Xiao Lizi, are you back? Where are you now? I finally finished the exam, let's go out for a meal together. I haven't seen you for a long time! I miss you so much!"

Sure enough, as Li Li expected, Zhang Yang even blew him a big kiss over the phone without any shame.

"It's a coincidence that you made this call. You called me as soon as I finished packing, not too early or too late."

"No, it's just a coincidence. I've been wronged! Little Li, Mr. Li, Mr. Li! Would you be willing to pack your things for me?" Zhang Yang called him indiscriminately, pretending to beg for mercy.

"I know, I know, just kidding, see you at the old place at 12:30."

Zhang Yang's fuss made Li Li feel a lot better after seeing Jiang Jingchi.

What's more, playing around is playing around, Li Li knew that Zhang Yang really missed him, and the other party was afraid of delaying his studies and affecting his state in the past six months, so he never wailed on his phone thinking about him.

Li Li thought, at least it's not a bad thing to be cared about, whether it's Zhang Yang, Mrs. Zhang, or Jiang Jingchi.
