Chapter 1379

Lin Tongtong twisted her fingers, her expression tense, "My grandma said that you are a kind person and helped me once, so she... she let me have time to visit you often."

Jing Qiu frowned, it turned out that she just listened to her grandma.

Heart, suddenly lost.

Suppressing the soreness that filled her throat, her voice was slightly hoarse, "No, you can go."

"manager……"

Jing Qiu still lowered his eyes, "You don't work here anymore, you and I have nothing to do with each other."

After speaking, my heart suddenly hurt.

A few days ago, Grandma Lin was still in the hospital. She bought fruit to visit the old man. Before she left, she left the 10,000 yuan that Lin Tongtong returned to her.

"Yes, we're fine, but...but, I have a kind of..."

Lin Tongtong was always afraid of her, but now seeing her face down slightly, she panicked and her words became confused.

Jing Qiu's heart moved, and he raised his head, "What else do you want to say?"

Lin Tongtong's face was red, she gently touched the corner of the table with her fingers, her eyelashes fluttered, this shy and timid look suddenly made Jing Qiu's heart soften.

The expression on his face softened a lot immediately, and his eyes looking at Lin Tongtong were also bright.

Lin Tongtong's heart relaxed, as if she was encouraged by her eyes...

"I like being with you."

Boom! Jing Qiu's heart skipped a beat, and a warm current flooded his chest instantly.

"For...why?"

She who has always been calm and composed actually stuttered.

"It feels like a friendly sense of security." Lin Tongtong leaned against the table, closing the distance between the two of them.

Jing Qiu lowered his eyes, as if he was talking to himself, "How is it possible?"

"It's true." Lin Tongtong looked at her sincerely, "I... I am an orphan, and I have been insecure since I was a child." She began to tell: "My grandma said that I was abandoned by my parents when I was two or three months old. In front of the door, there was a note stuffed in my little padded jacket with the date of birth on it, and Tongtong’s name was also given by my parents, but no surname was written on it.”

Jing Qiu's heart trembled, and a sour smell kept rushing up his nose...

"Grandma is a kind and kind person. Her husband and daughter died in a car accident, so she has been very sad, but since having me, she has slowly become happy.

Grandma said that maybe my parents gave me to her because they felt sorry for her. My grandma still receives money sent from the United States every month, which is enough to support me in food and clothing, and for me to study and go to school.

She suspected that it was sent to her by my parents. Two years ago, she asked me to check my parents in the United States, but I failed to find them because the other party used an English name and did not write their address. "

Speaking of this, Lin Tongtong's eyes were sad again, and her voice was slightly choked, "I don't think my parents intend for me to go to them, nor do they want to recognize me. They raised me when I was eighteen and left me alone, because after my eighteenth birthday , My parents never sent money to grandma again.”

Jing Qiu closed his lower eyelids, his trembling fingers curled slightly...

"Eighteen years old, you are an adult, you can take up the burden to be an independent and strong girl, instead of being attached to your parents and your grandma." She said softly.

Lin Tongtong nodded, "Yes, I guess they think so, and I won't blame them, so I earned the money I went to college through work-study programs, and I also worked hard to support my grandma and treat her illnesses ,but……"

"But what?"

"This time my grandma's follow-up medical expenses were paid for by someone. The hospital said that a woman came to pay the money, but that woman did not leave her name. Manager, do you think she is my mother?"

Jing Qiu avoided her staring gaze, "Didn't your grandma say that there is a doctor helping you?"

"Yes, that doctor's name is Nie Kecheng. He is also a good man. It's a pity that he has leukemia and is still being treated in the United States."

Jing Qiu looked at her again, "Your grandma said, do you want to save money to visit him?"

Lin Tongtong's face turned red again, and a shy smile appeared on the corner of her lips, "I'll tell you the truth, I already have him in my heart."

In this way, the manager will not doubt himself and her brother in the future.

How can you like another man when you have someone in your heart?

Jing Qiuxiu frowned slightly, "You mean, you fell in love with that doctor?"

"I...I secretly like it, but he doesn't know."

"You don't really know him at all?"

"Um."

Jing Qiu was silent, took a sip of tea, and then said lightly: "Come if you want to come later when you have time, I'm usually here."

After finishing speaking, she opened the drawer, took out a business card from it and handed it to Lin Tongtong, "It has my mobile phone number on it, if you need me for anything, you can call the mobile phone."

"Thank you, manager." Lin Tongtong took it happily.

Jing Qiu glanced at her, saw that the material of the dress on her was good, and the price was at least a few thousand, so he asked, "Who bought this dress for you?"

Lin Tongtong looked panicked, and hurriedly said: "The boss didn't buy this for me, it was given to me by Mama Zhang in the castle."

Silly girl! Mama Zhang definitely did it for Jing Ming.

Jing Qiu's face returned to normal, "Is the room the boss arranged for you? Besides translation, will he let you do other jobs?"

"My room is very beautiful, like the room of a princess in a fairy tale. I like it very much. Except for translation, the boss let me play freely. He..."

Seeing Jing Qiu's brows furrowed, Lin Tongtong stopped talking again.

"Why didn't you say it?" Jing Qiu looked at her.

Lin Tongtong blushed, "The boss doesn't mean that to me, please don't get me wrong."

"I know, you have nothing to do and stay away from him in the future. If he is too affectionate with you, you should refuse, and there should be no skin contact."

"Yes, manager."

"Aren't you leaving today?"

"No, I'm going to meet the boss later, he said he's going back to the castle."

"Then you can go."

"Oh." Lin Tongtong turned around, took two steps and looked back at her.

Jing Qiu also kept staring at her, their eyes collided, Jing Qiu hurriedly stopped turning her head...

"Goodbye." There was a hint of attachment in Lin Tongtong's eyes.

Jing Qiu's heart was clenched together, and she tightly grasped the edge of the table with both hands. As long as she had an impulse, she could get up immediately, and then run over to hold Lin Tongtong in her arms...

daughter! You are my birth!

Ringing, ringing...the landline on the table rang suddenly, Jing Qiu was startled, and his sanity returned.

She grabbed the receiver, her face was as cold as ice, "Hi, it's me."

"Xiaoqiu, Dad is not feeling well. Do you have time? Come back and see him if you have time. You haven't been home for two months."

The call was from Jing Xuan, with a hint of a smile in his voice.

"There are so many people in the family, do you need me?"

"Xiaoqiu, we are sons. You grew up in the palm of your father's hands. Although you are not his own, he treats you as his own. You and I know this well, don't we?"

"Rogue! You don't want to disgust me in the future! Unless you get out of that house, I will only step in!"

"Hey……"

Bah! Jing Qiu hung up the phone.

Afraid that he would call again, she unplugged the phone again.

Getting up, she picked up her bag and walked out of the office...

The wind outside is a bit strong, the sky is covered with a large piece of dark clouds, and it is estimated that there will be another thunderstorm.

Jing Qiu gave up the idea of ​​going to the western restaurant to order food in person, went back to the bar and ordered a bottle of 82-year-old Lafite, and then went to the kitchen to order the chef to cook some side dishes...

As soon as I finished all this, the rain outside came crashing down.

She returned to the office, took out her mobile phone and unplugged Jing Ming's phone: "Where are you?"

Just as Jing Ming sent Gu Xinyan back to Shaw's company, he sat in the car and watched the pouring rain outside, and laughed, "Sister, you finally care about me again?"

"I want to know if you were struck to death by lightning!"

"Hehe... Duplicity," Jing Ming shrugged his shoulders and frowned, "Sister, it's raining heavily today, why don't I go to your place and have dinner together, and I'll go home when the rain subsides. "

"You want to show up in front of me with your little secretary?"

"The little secretary is not here."

Jing Qiu's expression tightened, "Where is she?"

"I asked her to go home to see her grandma."

"Are you sure she's at grandma's house?"

It's raining so hard now, what if Lin Tongtong is still on the road...or in danger?

She, Jing Qiu, made this call because she wanted to know if Lin Tongtong had reached Jing Ming's side safely.

Because Lin Tongtong had clearly said before that he was going to find the boss, and they were going back to the castle.

"This... Sister, if you are worried, I will call her now."

Jing Qiu didn't say anything. Although she knew Lin Tongtong's phone number, it was normal for Jing Ming to call her, but she cared too much...it would make Lin Tongtong suspicious.

What's more, now Lin Tongtong already has such a feeling for her.

But she didn't want Lin Tongtong to know her background!

So dirty!

Walking to the window, Jing Qiu looked at the heavy rain outside the window, feeling inexplicably uneasy. She hoped that Jing Ming would give her a call after finding Lin Tongtong.

But half an hour passed by the window, and she didn't hear the phone ring.

The atrium seemed to be grabbed by an invisible heart, and Jing Qiu felt unspeakably uncomfortable.

She turned around, picked up the phone hesitantly, and just about to dial Jing Ming's number, a male waiter knocked on her door: "Manager, someone is looking for you."

Jing Qiu hurriedly put down the phone, tugged on his shirt, "Let him in."

As she expected, Murong Sheng arrived on time. Holding a bouquet of bright red roses in his hand, he walked in majesticly with a smile on his face.

His hair was dyed wet, and there were a few water stains on his white shirt. When he wanted to enter the bar, he didn't hold an umbrella.

"Please sit down." Jing Qiu pointed to the sofa.

Murong Sheng put the flowers on the coffee table, smiling handsomely, "Will it hinder your work?"

"I won't let you come if I'm in the way." Jing Qiu went to the cabinet and brought two goblets, and gave him a casual look, "Would you like Lafite or a cocktail?"

"Didn't you take Lafite?" Murong Sheng glanced at the cabinet.

"Then drink red wine." Jing Qiu took the wine bottle from the cabinet again, and gracefully picked up the corkscrew.

"I'll do it." Murong Sheng stretched out his hand and inadvertently touched the back of her hand. The cool and soft touch made both of them startled, and then both of them withdrew their hands, almost dropping the bottle.

"Come on." Jing Qiu turned away nonchalantly, "I'll order food."

She went out, and within a minute, her mobile phone on the table rang. Murong Sheng glanced outside, and saw that Jing Qiu hadn't come in yet, so he picked up the mobile phone and looked...

Seeing that the name displayed on it was "Canglang", his handsome face froze slightly.

After two seconds, the ringing stopped.

Murong Sheng let out a long breath, and just retreated to the sofa and sat down, there was a "bang" outside the window, a thunder and lightning shook the sky, and then all the lights in the bar went out with a "swish".

bang! There is a crackling sound.

"Ah... ah..." The girl's messy scream sounded again.
