She couldn't tell when she had first liked him, either when he had first kissed her, or when he had saved her from the bamboo bars, or when he had gone to the bar in the middle of the night worrying about her.
Anyway, she was really happy to hear that he liked her.
Shu Shu did not say anything, but she could not help but burst into laughter as tears streamed down her face.
Ling Qiao lowered his head and kissed her eyes, kissing away her tears. At this moment, all of the rumors and slanders outside had been shattered. Only her words, his views, and her feelings were the most genuine.
That night, the two of them slept in each other's embrace with Ling Qiao feeling a little pain. Fortunately, the brakes were stopped, otherwise, if they fell any longer, they would really be laughed at by the entire world. Three months was three months. To endure three months in exchange for a lifetime of happiness was worth it!
Shu Shu had fallen asleep, her head resting on his arm, sleeping soundly. Ling Qiao, however, could not fall asleep. He had always been opposing his own desires. Thinking back to how he had treated her so roughly just now, he felt really guilty.
Ling Qiao turned on the bedside lamp. Although the light was dim, the bruises on Shu's shoulders could still be seen clearly. Shu Shu was wearing a suspenders pajamas. The kiss marks on her collarbone were left by him. She was regretful that he had treated her so forcefully.
She lowered her head to kiss her fragrant shoulder, soothing her wounds. Hopefully, she would have a good dream.
The next day, Ling Qiao woke up, but his eyelids were too heavy to open. He had only slowly fallen asleep during the latter half of the night. He touched his surroundings but there was no one around him. Shu Shu was no longer around.
"Wife." He shouted, but no one answered. He pushed himself up from the bed with his big palms, got out of bed, and ran downstairs.
This feeling was familiar to him. The girl he loved once also disappeared the moment he woke up. She had never appeared even now.
"Shu Shu, Liu Shu, where are you?!" Ling Qiao ran down the stairs, calling out in a very anxious tone. Did his rude behavior last night make her run away?
ShuShu heard the sound and came out of the kitchen. "Yes, I'm in the kitchen." She was wearing an apron and holding a spoon in her hand. She looked at him with a puzzled expression on her face, "Hubby, where are you going in such a hurry? "I'm cooking porridge. If you're not in a hurry, then leave after eating. I've been cooking for an hour."
He walked to the kitchen door and pulled her into his arms. He softly rebuked her, "I thought you had left in anger. When you wake up in the future, you have to wake me up, do you understand?"
ShuShu obediently answered, "Oh."
He saw that white smoke was rising from the claypot and smelled very fragrant. He curiously asked, "You can't cook and can still cook porridge?"
"I see my mom cooking like this. Do you like skinny porridge with skin and eggs?"
"I like it, I like everything you do."
"Hehe, then hurry up and brush your teeth and wash your face."
When Ling Qiao appeared before her again, his beard was shaved, his clothes were neatly dressed, and he had regained his vigor. He was truly handsome in his normal state.
ShuShu scooped up a bowl of porridge and said, "Drink it, it smells so good …"
Ling Qiao pulled out a chair and sat down. Looking expectantly at the porridge in her hand, he scooped up a spoonful and stuffed it into his mouth.
"How is it, is it delicious? I've been cooking for over an hour. "
Ling Qiao was instantly petrified. He pursed his lips, trying to keep the porridge out of his mouth as much as possible. Such leisurely porridge, did she put all the salt in the porridge?
However, seeing the look of anticipation on his face, Ling Qiao forcefully swallowed the congee in his mouth, and then asked with a wry smile: "It's delicious, but my wife, have you ever tasted it yourself?"
"I want you to eat first."
He was speechless again. What a good idea!
"What? Looking at your expression, it doesn't seem to be very tasty." As she spoke, Shu Shu took the spoon in his hand and tasted it before spitting it out, "Cough, cough cough cough." She ran into the kitchen and threw up in the trash can.
Ling Qiao smiled, "Wife, is it delicious?"
Shu Shu said with a sad face, "I cooked a pot."
"Haha, let's go and eat outside. I'll send you to the television station first."
Ling Qiao still parked the car on the next street, but he was reluctant to let her go. Shu Shu pulled on the car door, unable to open it. "Hubby, open the door, hubby?" She looked back at him in surprise. "What is it?"
Ling Qiao pointed at his neck. Only then did Shu Shu realize what was going on. He complained, "Isn't it all because of you?"
Ling Qiao frowned. The bruises on her neck were no longer kisses, but rather bruises. If he looked further down, his arms would also be covered in bruises. If he went back to the Ling family now, his grandmother might even think that it was a domestic violence.
"How about taking a break today? I'll let Station Head Chen know." He couldn't bear to see her still working, scarred. She didn't really need to work.
Shu Shu hurriedly shook her head, "No need. Right now, I'm feeling very uncomfortable with the way Chen Yuan is looking at me. Don't ask Station Head Chen to pressure her again."
"What does she think of you?"
"No, she wouldn't let me do anything. She wouldn't give me any tasks, but I would get full marks for every day's work."
"Isn't that fine?"
"What's so good about that? Just sit back and wait to get off work while waiting for the salary to be paid. Do you like this kind of job?"
Ling Qiao raised an eyebrow, "Oh oh oh, I didn't expect you to be so ambitious!" to the career of a strong woman in the capital. "
"Hehe, I don't have a strong female expert, but she's quite ambitious. I don't like things that can be obtained without working hard."
Ling Qiao smiled. He inadvertently looked at the time and reminded his, "If not, we would be late."
"Ah, oh, I really have to go!"
Ling Qiao pressed the button to open the door, and Shu Shu opened the door and got out of the car.
She didn't have anything to do in the morning, so she went to the internet for half a day. Everyone had their own tasks to do, so she was the most free.
"Sister Su Man." She saw Summan walk into the office with his bag, as if he had just gone somewhere to talk about a script. "Is there anything I can do for you?" "I'm fine, I can help you."
Su Man couldn't wait any longer. She handed a thick book to her and said, "Look, this book doesn't have a script. It's only handwritten. You can type it out for me."
"Huh?" Shu Shu was stunned. "Typing?"
Summan sat down and fanned himself with another magazine, complaining, "Yes, the next subject of observation was a seventy-year-old entrepreneur who wrote the usual essays. He showed me one when I was interviewing him, and when I said I was going to type it out for her, he was so happy, and then he took out a whole notebook and said, My God, it's so thick! I can't finish the call even after three days, but it's not like I can refuse in front of him. "
Shu Shu flipped through the notebook. The words inside were written in a pen and were not easy to read. On the cover of the notebook, there was a name. She softly read out, "Tang Zhonglin."
"Yes, the old president of the Tang Corporation. Although the company is not very big, it is very representative and has a lot of experience. That's why Chief Chen said that we must interview him." Me? I fought with him yesterday and it wasn't the right thing to do. I had to go and do it again today. However, I did discover something. " Suman grew mysterious.
"What?"
"There are some photos in Tang Zhonglin's study room. I guess who I saw. I saw Ling Qiao."
"Ling Qiao?" Shu Shu's eyes lit up. "The photo of Ling Qiao and Elder Tang?"
"No, it's a photo of Ling Qiao and Tang Shuiqing!" Don't you know that Ling Qiao has a girlfriend that he has personally admitted to be his only girlfriend?
Shu Shu shook her head. She really didn't know. In university, she had wholeheartedly studied, but she didn't know anything about the entertainment industry or the business world. What Tang and Qing, even Ling Qiao had only heard about them after finishing her career.
"I rarely praise women,"he thought to himself, "but this Tang is really noble and generous. Just by looking at the photos, she already has an extraordinary temperament, and I'm sure he's even more so. She was once Ling Qiao's lover, and we've been together for so many years, but three years ago they suddenly broke up, I don't know why. "From then on, Ling Qiao went on and on about dating this female model and getting a room with that female singer. I'm guessing it must be some kind of emotional trauma."
Shu Shu listened attentively. She knew that Ling Qiao had a lot of flowery gossip, but according to him, those stories were all the work of reporters. Even if he couldn't stop them, it didn't matter. However, who wouldn't go over? A person as outstanding as Ling Qiao would definitely have some equally outstanding women by his side.
"I'm not going to tell you anymore, I have to prepare the materials. Elder Tang has so many things to do, so I'll have to trouble you with his essays."
"Oh, okay, I type fast. Leave it to me." Shu Shu's heart felt stuffy, unable to describe the feeling in her heart.
How outstanding must the woman by Ling Qiao's side be in order to be worthy of him? And she, was she worthy?
Although she typed, ShuShu opened up the web page and inputted Ling Qiao and the keys to return the car. As expected, there were a lot of them. A computer is a good thing. You can have anything you want to know.
Shu Shu tapped open Tang and Qing's photo. It was a single person photo. Although the online photo wasn't very clear, the faint outline could still be seen. Indeed, it was just as Su Man said: noble and generous, with extraordinary temperament.
In New York City, on the Lincoln Center stage, Tang Zuoqing was dancing on stage in a ballet skirt. Every time she jumped, every time she landed on the ground, every time she rotated, she was at her ease.
"Little Qing, enough. Rest." The teacher at the side called out to her, took some water and a towel, and gave them to her, "Tomorrow is the public performance. Come on, this is your dream all along."
"En, as soon as this dream has been fulfilled, I should go realize my next dream."
"What is it?"
"I'll tell you tomorrow."
After work, Ling Qiao called, "I still have some matters to attend to, so I have to go home a little later. I'll get Zi Jun to pick you up."
ShuShu lowered her voice and said, "You don't need to pick me up. I can go back by myself."
"Little fool, I brought you to a good place to eat."
"Oh, okay." She didn't have the curiosity to ask where it was. He had arranged for her to go.
"What's wrong? "Why are you so listless today?"
