Chapter 142: Purely Accidental, Neighbor's Misbehavior 36
She imagined that when she found her, she would hold her tightly in her arms and never let go, and would never let anyone or anything take her away from her. But the fact was that she had no movement or reaction.
Qin Shuangjiang held his breath and stared closely at the clean and fresh face of the person in front of him, afraid that in a blink of an eye this would be just another sweet and painful dream that he had experienced countless nights ago.
"Sorry to bother you." Seeing that the owner, who had a delicate makeup before, did not respond, Leng Nuan called out softly. Looking at the half-open door, her cat was looking at the door in a comfortable manner, while nibbling on a dried fish-shaped biscuit with relish.
"Hello, please come in." Qin Shuangjiang turned sideways to let the person in. He lowered his head to hide the red circles in his eyes, and his deliberately suppressed hoarse voice sounded a little stiff.
When Leng Nuan came in, he nodded to her, apologized again, and then walked straight towards his cat without looking around.
Qin Shuangjiang looked greedily at the person walking in front of her. The person who used to be only up to her shoulders was now almost the same height as her. Her sight moved slightly downwards, and she saw the straight and slender legs taking deep and shallow steps. Qin Shuangjiang felt a tearing pain in her heart. Even though she knew everything, when she really faced it, she looked away and tried to calm down.
The house was not big to begin with, and even if the temperature was slow, it still reached the edge of the balcony door. She bent down slightly, with a faint smile on her face, and whispered softly as if she was talking to her family: "Have you eaten? It's time to go home."
"Meow~" the gray cat responded, then lowered its head and quickly bit the few remaining biscuits in the bowl. It is shameful to waste food.
"Got it. Eat slowly. I won't rush you."
That helpless yet patient attitude made Qin Shuangjiang choke up. She looked at the cat, feeling a little sour, and temporarily suppressed the complex emotions that had just surged in her heart. She couldn't waste every opportunity.
The system, which had already eaten the last cookie, smacked its lips in satisfaction, and then obediently leaned against Leng Nuan's feet. If there was one thing that was the greatest comfort of having this real body, it was being able to truly taste the deliciousness of food!
"I'm really sorry for disturbing you today. So..." The new neighbor seemed to have some connection with her family. Leng Nuan didn't know how to get along with him for a moment. She was about to say goodbye with the cat and go back. Qin Shuangjiang, who had been watching and waiting for an opportunity, said anxiously, "If you don't mind, can you stay for a cup of tea?"
"Hmph, no need. She doesn't want tea." What a quick move! He just came here and he wants to seduce his sister. Fortunately, he came back early today. Leng Xu muttered in his heart that this man had no martial ethics, and with a cold face, he called Leng Nuan to come out quickly at the half-open door.
Leng Nuan bent down and picked up the cat at his feet, then said softly to the woman beside him: "Ms. Qin, thank you for taking in my cat. I will visit you again tomorrow. Goodbye." As soon as these words came out, both people inside and outside the room felt bad.
Qin Shuangjiang's body swayed as if in a trance, and the words "Miss Qin" kept replaying in his mind...
Come back tomorrow! What are you coming for? Oh my, his silly sister, why is she always thinking about delivering herself to him? It was the same before and it is the same now! Leng Xu suddenly felt that it would not be long before the two of them would be in love again.
"Okay, I'll wait for you!" Fortunately, Qin Shuangjiang still grasped the key point of "tomorrow". She quickly agreed, looking like she would see you there or not, and would cry if you didn't come.
Leng Nuan was stunned by her sudden idea. She laughed first and added, "See you tomorrow."
Just a few steps away, while waiting for Leng Xu to open the door, Leng Nuan looked at their new neighbor who was watching them leave, and waved goodbye to her.
"Pa," his hand was slapped down by someone before it stopped moving. "Why are you waving? Hurry up and go in." Taking advantage of his tall stature, Leng Xu was so anxious that he almost carried Leng Nuan into the door.
Oh, he's anxious! A.K0527, who was lying on Leng Nuan's head, was watching the interaction between the two with great interest. Ah? You ask it how to explain its behavior to the host? Don't ask, asking means it doesn't care. It will go again tomorrow, every day, meow~~~
Leng Xu was very worried and at a loss. His sister had been smart, well-behaved, sensible, considerate, gentle, polite, hardworking, honest and calm since she was a child...
"Stop, did you ask me out just to listen to you brag about your sister?!" Lou Qing, who had been sitting here for 20 minutes, resisted the urge to roll his eyes in disdain. Last time we met, I thought this guy had become a mature, charming and successful person? But it turned out that he had just become a serious sister-con!
"No, I just came to discuss something with you." Leng Xu, who had been talking alone, also felt a little thirsty. He stopped talking and took a sip of iced black tea. The refreshing taste made him feel refreshed.
"Based on my understanding of my sister, she must have discovered something. But she didn't say anything and didn't ask anything. She just went about her daily routine as usual."
"What's wrong with that?" Lou Qing stirred the iced coffee in her hand boredly. Ever since she found the person, her pressure was instantly relieved. Worried about the boss's emotional problems? No, not at all. She bet 80 cents that the two of them would definitely be fine. It was just a matter of time.
“I didn’t say it was bad…” Leng Xu scratched his head in annoyance.
Can he stop her decision? No!
Can he control her personal freedom? No!
Well, since none of these work, then his identity as a brother should have some weight! Leng Xu, who felt that he had come up with a very good idea, said goodbye to the other party and left in a hurry.
After everyone left, Lou Qing couldn't help but roll her eyes. Humph, her CEO is handsome, rich, and loyal. What's the problem? What else could there be? I think this dead sister control can't bear to part with his sister!
"Nuan Nuan?" Thinking that Leng Nuan would come to visit today, Qin Shuangjiang finished work early and came back to prepare. Unexpectedly, he met Leng Nuan who was enjoying the cool and petting a cat in a small park he passed by.
Monday afternoon is the quietest time of the whole weekend. Leng Nuan likes this time the most. No matter where she goes, there won’t be many people. Whenever she has the chance, she will go outside and find a quiet place to stay. She was a little surprised to see the new neighbor coming back at this time. She smiled lightly and said hello: "Hello." He didn't show any abnormality in response to her intimate call.
"Don't you have classes in the afternoon?" Qin Shuangjiang, who had already memorized her daily curriculum, asked puzzledly.
"Well, the teacher came back early because of something urgent." Leng Nuan said briefly, she moved to the right side of the bench and asked gently: "Would you like to sit for a while?"
Today's weather is sunny but not scorching. The vast blue sky is like a huge canvas. The thick white clouds floating in the air and drifting leisurely with the wind make people feel happy and relaxed.
"Here you go." Leng Nuan took out a can of a low-sugar drink from a certain country from the shopping bag and handed it to the person next to him. The light green and refreshing packaging made him feel cool just by looking at it.
Qin Shuang lowered her head and immediately felt her heart swell up again. Leng Nuan was a good kid who didn't have the habit of eating snacks or drinking beverages. Qin Shuang teased her for a long time because of this. "Thank you." Qin Shuang took the drink she usually drank. The cold touch slightly calmed her impulse to hug him tightly in her arms regardless of everything.
Leng Nuan looked at her inconspicuously while drinking a drink. This young lady's reaction to her was really obvious~
"Why did you move to this city?" Leng Nuan asked casually as they chatted. Although she didn't know the truth of the matter, she didn't think the other party came for her brother.
"I'm here to find someone." Qin Shuangjiang looked at her intently. There were too many words in those deep eyes, but they were stubbornly suppressed.
"I had an accident before, and she was seriously injured to protect me. Then I lost her." Qin Shuangjiang closed his eyes and took a deep breath, not daring to recall the scene too much. But the more he tried not to think about it, the clearer and deeper the scene became——
A.K0527, who was taking a short rest with his eyes closed, felt a strong emotional fluctuation. He looked up at Qin Shuangjiang, who had fallen into her own world, exuding regret, fear, and self-blame, and his eyes were full of worry. He stood up and rubbed against her arm to try to get her attention.
"I'm so glad you're okay."
"Eh?" With just one sentence, A.K0527 felt that the depressing and gloomy atmosphere just now disappeared instantly.
"I think that person thinks so too." Leng Nuan looked at her seriously and said.
"Because I tried my best to protect you, I think that person would be happy if he knew that you were okay."
The serious expression of the person in front of her gradually became gentle as he spoke. His shining obsidian eyes gradually became tinged with tolerance and heartache that she was not aware of.
"So, please don't..." Leng Nuan hadn't finished her words yet, the softness in her arms and the slightly wet left shoulder made her forget to think for a moment.
Blinking her misty eyes, she didn't have time to analyze her strange feeling. Leng Nuan had already put her hand around her, patting her back soothingly. Sighing silently, she lowered her head slightly and continued to speak in the ear of the person in her arms. That gentle voice went straight to her heart -
So please don't blame yourself too much.
