After pondering for a moment, Xue Yuexin looked straight ahead and said calmly, "Mr. Li, can I understand your words as a kind of harassment?"
"Isn't it..." Li Qing glanced at Xue Yuexin, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help pulling gently. "I'm just making an analogy. Do you have persecution paranoia? You don't have confidence in everyone?"
"Your analogy... Is a bit like playing rogue, especially for a single woman." Xue Yuexin slightly tilted her small head and blinked. "It's like you keep saying you want to take all my underwear, so I'm worried about whether you want to take this one from me."
Li Qing was stunned for a moment and immediately patted the steering wheel and laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" Xue Yuexin said with a little dissatisfaction.
"Do you always tell cold jokes to others like this?"
"You think it's funny?"
"It's really funny." Li Qing couldn't help nodding. "You can rest assured that if I break into your house one day, I won't steal anything."
"Better not." Xue Yuexin seemed to win. A smile slowly popped up on her lips, and a cunning color flashed on her eyes.
Thirty minutes later, Li Qing stopped at a Chinese restaurant two blocks from Jing'an road.
When they entered the hotel, Li Qing asked for a private room, and then quickly hid in with Xue Yuexin.
But even so, when the waiter brought in the menu, he put a Xue Yuexin album under it.
Xue Yuexin looked at Li Qing helplessly, then took the signing pen and silently signed. When she handed the album back to the waiter, she raised her jade hand and made a silent gesture. She smiled sweetly and said, "keep it a secret."
"I like your song very much. Don't worry. I won't tell anyone you're here." the waiter took the menu ordered by Li Qing and went out happily.
Li Qing took off his baseball cap, raised his head and said with a smile, "I see you don't have time to talk. You just ordered a few dishes. I don't know if it suits your appetite."
"It doesn't matter," said Xue Yuexin. "I'm on a diet recently."
Li Qing looked at Xue Yuexin quite seriously and felt a little incredible: "hmm? Are you fat?"
Xue Yuexin smiled: "men never know what is just right for women."
"Well, I'm very hungry now. I don't want to discuss this profound truth with you." Li Qing smiled and shook his head. "I'll take you home after lunch. I have a little private business in the afternoon."
"Please feel free to contact me if you have any further investigation results."
"OK." Li Qing was silent. Between waiting for dishes, he turned the tea cup on the table and made a less pleasant sound.
Xue Yuexin stared at the movement on his hand and asked faintly, "you seem to have something to say?"
"Do you have mind reading? You can see it all?" Li Qing raised his head and stared at Xue Yuexin again. "What do you think of... Molly?"
"Molly? A lovely man." Xue Yuexin smiled. "Isn't he your good brother? What's the matter? Why do you suddenly ask this?"
Li Qing took back his hand, hesitated slightly, and began with some difficulty: "do you think Molly actually... Likes you a little?"
"Although I haven't known each other for a long time, I believe Molly is a very loyal friend. He is very kind and simple. He will find his own happiness." Xue Yuexin answered very appropriately, but her eyes have revealed a trace of unhappiness. "What do you mean by suddenly mentioning these? Do you want to..."
"No, it doesn't mean that. Don't get me wrong." Li Qing quickly waved his hand. "You are a girl that any man will like when he sees you. I don't have the slightest qualification. I hope you can cater to others."
Xue Yuexin's beautiful eyes flickered slightly: "any man? Including you?"
Li Qing's face was a little embarrassed. After a few seconds, he suddenly grinned: "I like beautiful girls."
Xue Yuexin couldn't help laughing and raised her hand to cover her mouth: "it's so straightforward..."
"Let's get down to business." Li Qing tapped his finger on the table twice. "I hope you can understand that Molly is just a child."
Xue Yuexin's smile on her cheek slowly converged. Looking at Li Qing opposite, she seriously nodded her chin: "don't worry, I hope he will always be a child."
"Well, I hope you can keep your promise." Li Qing replied solemnly. He believed that this step was enough. If the final outcome still disappoints him, it has nothing to do with understanding.
The private room door opened and the waiter brought the cooked dishes to the table.
"Let's eat." Li Qing only concentrated on eating and didn't say anything else. But Xue Yuexin's appetite is not very good. This meal seems to be full of worries.
After lunch, Li Qing Yiyan sends Xue Yuexin back to her apartment on Jing'an road. He glanced at the corner of the street, didn't stop, but directly started the car to Xie's house.
To Li Qing's surprise, he didn't shut the door on his Xie family trip this time.
When Li Qing walked into the small courtyard where Xie Yuyan lived, she felt light all over, but she was a little uncomfortable.
"Why do you look like this?" Xie Yuyan was feeding the koi in the pool. He glanced at Li Qing slightly, and then dropped his eyes.
I haven't seen it for many days. Xie Yuyan is much fatter than before. Li Qing can imagine that she must be madly replenishing nutrition for her baby. With her personality, even for herself, I'm afraid it's impossible to work so hard.
Li Qing stood still under the steps, tilted his head to see Xie Yuyan, and said strangely, "do you believe it? I came in from the front door."
"I know, you have something to show off." Xie Yuyan said angrily, "why? Don't you itch your hands and feet if you haven't been a gentleman for a long time?"
Li Qingmai went up the steps, walked a few steps to Xie Yuyan, took her soft jade hand, smiled and asked, "don't you think I have?"
Xie Yuyan looked at Li Qing with a cold face and answered word by word: "No."
"Don't lie, I know you're sorry." Li Qingsi was not angry. She squatted down and put her ears on Xie YuYan's high belly. "Dad is coming, you know? Ah, so smart... The little guy kicked you. Do you feel it?"
Facing Li Qing's excited eyes, Xie Yuyan reached out and turned his head aside: "no more nonsense in the future."
"Where am I talking nonsense?"
"My child has no father."
Li Qing glanced at the corner of his mouth: "where's the child's father? If others ask you, what do you say?"
"Dead."
Li Qing clenched his teeth tightly and raised his finger to Xie Yuyan: "you're cruel enough."
"If you come to make me angry today, please come back." Xie Yuyan sprinkles a handful of fish food into the water and stares at the competing Koi.
"All right." Li Qing sat down on one side dejected. "You're a child's mother. Are you reasonable?"
"I've always been right."
Li Qing reached out and gently touched Xie YuYan's white and delicate cheek. The latter surprisingly did not refuse after his back was slightly stiff.
The bodyguards and servants of the Xie family standing not far away saw this scene and quickly leaned back.
After a while, Xie Yuyan was finally impatient: "what is it that you just touch me without saying a word? Can't you touch a woman at home and be interested in me, a pregnant woman with a big belly?"
"At least it's also a scholarly family. Don't be so ugly. Li Qing gently pulled at the corner of his mouth and put down his hand." rain and smoke, I really miss you. "
"Oh, this really should be heard by Lin Qiuqiu."
Li Qing's face changed slightly, and she was suddenly disturbed by the woman.
"Forget it, everything I say is wrong. Can I sit here with you for a while?"
"No one drives you away again. Sit at will." Xie Yuyan said. He reached out his hand and picked up a book from the table and looked through it with interest.
Li Qing thought that Miss Xie of this scholarly family was reading Confucian classics and elegant prose. As a result, he glanced at it at random. It was a children's fairy tale and couldn't help laughing.
Xie Yuyan slanted over his pretty face and stared: "you can sit, you can't laugh, and then get out."
"You're a mother. You really broke your heart." Li Qing sighed slightly, reached out and grabbed the fairy tale book in Xie YuYan's hand, opened it and looked at it, "the story of two little ducks, ha ha..."
Xie Yuyan said angrily, "I told you to get out. Didn't you hear me?"
"Don't be so angry. It's not the time for you to seduce me..." Li Qing looked up and said with a smile. "You close your eyes and have a rest. I'll read it to you. If I can't read four books and five classics smoothly, but I'm still very confident."
Xie Yuyan mocked without hesitation: "it's rare that you can still read."
Li Qing grinned and whispered: "two ducklings are good friends. They live by a small river. One day..."
Xie Yuyan stared at Li Qing's focused appearance and slowly closed his eyes.
The story is so childish and boring, but it seems to have a magic nature, which sucks Xie YuYan's body and mind into it.
Suddenly, the sound of reading stopped suddenly. The next moment, Xie Yuyan felt a faint warm touch on his lips.
She reopened her eyes and looked at each other. Li Qing was close at hand and smiled at the bottom of her eyes.
"The way you close your eyes is so beautiful that you can't hold it." Li Qing shrugged her shoulders with some regret, sat back and continued to read the story.
"I should have known you didn't have a good heart." although Xie YuYan's look was still cold, his voice was much softer than before. This unexpected kiss comes and goes quickly. Feeling the fading temperature on her lips, she was quite disappointed in her heart. At that moment, she was foolish to make time pass more slowly.
