Li Qing didn't take it to heart until the car came to him and suddenly stopped inexplicably.
Turning around to see that the door had been opened by the bodyguard, Chen Hongming, a senior and junior of the Chen family, stepped down from the car.
The two men looked at each other across a car. Chen Hongming's cheeks were cold. He was the first to say, "you should be glad you didn't stand in the middle of the road just now, otherwise I would have asked the driver to speed up and kill you at the door of Li's house."
"You should be glad that if you had just done that, you wouldn't have the chance to stand here and talk to me now." Li Qing fought back without hesitation.
The two met for the first time in ten years, and they were so tense.
"No wonder Li Xian just told his Laozi that there were still things to do. It turned out that he had colluded with the Chen family." Li Qing whispered silently, "I found the shadow of the Chen family in the Lijiazhuang garden a few days ago. According to the current situation, the Chen and Li families should have come together long ago. What do they want to do? Do they want to unite against me?"
After staring at Li Qing for a while, Chen Hongming said, "Li Qing, did you do the injury to my brother Luo Feng?"
"No." Li Qing waved her hand, widened her eyes and said with a smile.
"You can't fool me. You're so cruel. It seems that you've really learned a lot of good things outside these years." Chen Hongming narrowed his eyes slightly against the hot sun on his head. "Luo Feng will spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair."
Li Qing naturally smiled: "what you said I did was what I did? When did your Chen family change their career as an official? At least you have to show evidence."
The bodyguard around him knew the current affairs very well. He took out the sunshade from the car and hit Chen Hongming on the head.
After looking up and down at Li Qing, Chen Hongming looked gloomy: "only you can do such a thing. If it weren't for the sudden changes in the Li family, Luo Feng's affair would have become a hot topic in Lingang recently."
"Well." Li Qing nodded gently, "so Chen Dashao had better be careful. Don't one day you've become a hot news."
"I will avenge Luo Feng. You will still be a complete failure this time." Chen Hongming said coldly.
The corners of his mouth rose slightly. Li Qing said faintly, "don't make it as if you care about this brother. He was driven out of the Chen family and moved into the Ledu club. Isn't it also behind you? Your father likes Chen Luofeng better, so you destroyed him early. There's no need to hide with me and make yourself like a saint."
Chen Hongming's face changed slightly: "Li Qing, you came back just in time. The accounts between us are settled one by one."
"With pleasure."
After staring at Li Qing, Chen Hongming bent down and got into the car: "drive!"
Seeing the luxury car go away, Li Qing whistled, then put his hands in his pockets and walked slowly towards his car.
Back in the car, Li Qing looked at the time. It's about 3 p.m. and it's still early.
After hesitation, Li Qing started the car and drove down the road from the Li family residence to the high school.
After more than ten years, some places have not changed, but some places have been earth shaking. Li Qing looked at the scenery outside the window and felt desolate at the bottom of his heart.
The car stopped at the side of the road. Li Qing got out of the car, looked up at the plaque of the store in front of him, and sighed gently.
Time cafe.
"Ten years." Li Qing murmured, with some sobs in his words. At that time, every day after school, Li Qing would inform the driver to pick him up later. During this time, he took advantage of Mu rouer to hide in the cafe, doing his homework, reading, chatting, and even staring at the traffic outside the window. Until the night fell, the driver sounded the horn for the third time outside, and then reluctantly got on the bus and said goodbye.
At that time, the Li family huddled in a small coffee house with their beloved girl, but they got unspeakable happiness, and those days were long gone.
Unexpectedly, after so many years, this coffee shop still exists.
Li Qing was in a much better mood. She sipped her mouth and walked into the coffee shop.
However, it backfired. The newly renovated coffee shop was strange to Li Qinglai.
"What would you like, sir?"
Li Qing regained his mind, and a smile of embarrassment filled his mouth. Remembering that he hadn't eaten at noon, he simply said, "let's have a cup of cappuccino and two egg tarts."
"Yes, sir. Please sit down."
Li Qing nodded, then looked at the slightly empty cafe and sat down by the window.
This position is also the place where Li Qing and mu rouer had to sit every time they came. The view here is the best. You can see the scenery of the street and the car coming to pick you up.
Looking around the street, Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed slowly.
"For ten years, everything is going to change. It's not easy to leave this window for me." Li Qing smiled at herself and comforted herself insincerely.
The sun came in through the window and became much milder. The air conditioner in the cafe is fully turned on, which is quite cool.
After eating two egg tarts, Li Qing looked up to have a sip of coffee. Suddenly, he found a beautiful shadow stopped in front of the window.
Turning her head and looking out of the window, Li Qing couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
The person outside the window is mu rouer.
Wearing a long embroidered skirt, mu rouer looked thin. Her slender body half leaned against the wide glass window. A dark blue bag collapsed on her shoulder. The strap made of metal rings was hooked between her fingers by white jade hands and raised her chin slightly. She didn't know what she was thinking. She wore a pair of exaggerated sunglasses, which almost covered half of her beautiful face. It seems to be intentional, for fear that others will recognize the identity of the Chinese singer, so as not to be disturbed by the fanaticism of fans in the quiet afternoon.
Mu rou'er glanced at the window, still expressionless.
Li Qing was a little stunned. Then she reacted. Mu rouer couldn't see herself inside because of the reflection of the mirror outside. At present, she didn't know whether it was a sigh of relief or a deep loss.
After about ten seconds, mu rouer straightened up, lifted the shoulder strap of the bag, then wiped it by the window and disappeared into Li Qing's vision.
After biting his teeth, Li Qing tried his best to restrain the impulse to chase him out, picked up the coffee on the table and took a big sip.
Today's coffee is very bitter, even with a little sour.
Li Qing threw in three pieces of sugar and took another sip. It was still unbearable.
He planned to check out and leave. As soon as Li Qinggang got up, he saw that mu rouer, who had left, suddenly turned back, stood in front of the glass window, turned her delicate body, slightly tilted her head, as if she were looking in the mirror.
Breathing stopped for a moment. Li Qing seemed to go back to her childhood. She accidentally found a beautiful bird in the woods for fear that she would scare it away accidentally.
Mu rouer stood for a while, suddenly stretched out her white and soft left hand and gently pressed it in front of the glass window. Her face was quiet and beautiful, showing some color of memory, but inexplicably pale and pitiful.
As soon as her body was stiff, Li Qing's eyes turned red. It was difficult to control herself. She stretched out her fingers and tapped three times on the palm of Mu rouer's hand.
Mu rou'er couldn't see the situation in the room at all outside the window, but her delicate body suddenly trembled, an incredible look appeared on her pretty face, and she couldn't help but step back two steps.
Suddenly, mu rou'er ran towards the front door of the cafe as if she were crazy.
This is their favorite little game in those years, and it is also their secret sign for dating in the coffee shop. Although there is reflection from the glass, a person standing outside can't see another person, as long as one person presses his hand on the glass, another person sees it and gently taps it three times in the palm of his hand, it means that the person has arrived.
As for why it is the left hand and the palm of the hand, she also benefits from the little affectation of Mu rouer's green and astringent girlhood. She always stubbornly believes that the left hand should be closer to the heart and the two people can rely more closely.
"Miss..."
Before waiting for the waiter to say hello, mu rouer rushed in directly, suddenly stopped in front of Li Qing and looked at him foolishly.
"Miss, are you..."
"We have an appointment." Mu rouer whispered, slowly took off his exaggerated glasses, and tears had already slipped down his cheeks. "Are you finally willing to come back in nine years and four months and seventeen days?"
The waitress saw mu rouer's face and was surprised: "you're not..."
"Shh, don't tell others, OK?" Mu rouer still had tears on her cheeks, but she pulled a kind smile around her mouth and gently pressed her fingers against her lips.
"OK, OK." the waitress nodded again and again. "I won't tell anyone."
Mu rouer nodded gently, "thank you. Help me have a cup of coffee."
The waitress quickly responded and turned to prepare, while mu rouer had put her bag on the chair and gently sat opposite Li Qing.
Li Qing also sat down, their eyes intertwined, and no one spoke for a moment. The complexity of each other's hearts can be imagined after the first formal meeting in nearly ten years.
Mu rou'er's cup of coffee was quickly delivered. Under the coffee cup, the waitress also creatively padded her latest album with a pen on it.
After delivering the coffee, the waitress did not leave, but brazenly stood aside and acted as a light bulb.
Mu rouer understood, with a shallow smile on her mouth, picked up her pen, signed her name on the album, and then handed it back.
"Thank you, thank you." the waitress bowed down and thanked repeatedly. It was like a treasure to leave with the album. She didn't dare to disturb the two men and women who were entangled in love.
