Lin Qingya finally accepted Li Mu's proposal and borrowed money from Li Mu personally to settle family matters first. However, since she decided to give 150,000 yuan first, Lin Qingya decided to borrow 150,000 yuan from Li Mu first.
Li Mu didn't insist anymore. The 150,000 yuan could solve her immediate problem and prevent her from being disturbed by these external factors. As long as she was willing to take it, she would feel relieved.
Li Mu sent Lin Qingya to Shuangyun Yayuan and parked the car outside her unit. Lin Qingya hesitated for a long time before getting out of the car before summoning the courage to ask Li Mu: "Mr. Li, it's so late, can you go back now?" Bedroom?"
Li Mu nodded: "You can go back, don't worry."
Lin Qingya then said: "Then I'll go up first."
"Go, don't think too much when you go back, have a good rest, and send me your account number tomorrow."
Lin Qingya nodded, opened the car door, and said to Li Mu before getting out of the car: "Mr. Li, please go back and drive slower..."
"good."
Li Mu waved goodbye to Lin Qingya, and then rushed back to Yucheng Garden with his tired body. It was almost three o'clock in the morning. He had been a little overtired during this period, but he could not bear it because of his physical fitness. After a while, I suddenly felt a deep tiredness invade my whole body.
Once this kind of tiredness that penetrates into the bone marrow strikes, it is difficult to resist it with perseverance. Li Mu even feels that he might fall asleep if he touches the pillow, but there is still at least one kilometer to drive out of the community and to Yucheng Garden. , park again...
Afraid that he would fall asleep as soon as he closed his eyes, Li Mu almost bit his tongue and drove the car to the downstairs of Yucheng Garden, and then took the elevator home in a daze. As soon as he got out of the elevator door, he immediately took out the key and wanted to open the door and go back to rest, but Thinking that he had just coughed to turn on the voice-activated light, the stairwell door next to him was suddenly opened. Su Yingxue, who was also exhausted, suddenly appeared in the stairwell, staring at Li Mu in surprise, and blurted out: "Where are you going? I haven’t been able to contact you for so long!”
Li Mu was stunned, looked at Su Yingxue with red eyes, and asked in great surprise: "Why are you here so late?"
Su Yingxue walked up to Li Mu and said, "I haven't been able to get through since I called you in the evening. I looked for Zhao Kang, Senior Sister Ai, and asked her to be your roommate in the dormitory, but I couldn't find you. I felt uneasy, thinking that you might be I came here to look for you, but you weren't there either, so I went to your dormitory again. I didn't see you until eleven o'clock, so I came over here and waited for you."
Li Mu couldn't help but feel distressed, and blurted out: "Have you been waiting for me until now?"
Su Yingxue nodded and asked him: "Where have you been? Why is your phone still turned off?"
Li Mu felt regretful in his heart. Just thinking of easily avoiding the bombardment of calls, he changed his number temporarily but only told his family and a few people he had to contact at work, and did not tell Su Yingxue the new number. This was really his negligence, otherwise Otherwise, she wouldn't have been looking for him for so long, and then waited here in the middle of the night when she couldn't find him.
But Li Mu was really embarrassed to tell the truth, so he made up a lie and said: "I have been busy outside today and my mobile phone is out of battery..."
Su Yingxue couldn't help but sigh: "I'm really a little nervous. I originally thought that your phone might be out of battery, but I haven't been able to contact you. The more I can't contact you, the more worried I am that something will happen, so..."
Seeing her haggard and tired look, Li Mu was very moved. He didn't expect that his position in her heart would be so important. The inability to get through on the phone actually made her call all the people she could find who were related to her. After waiting for him here for so long, when he thought that she had just walked out of the stairwell, he guessed that she must have been sitting on the stairs inside for a long time...
My heart suddenly felt uncomfortable again.
Li Mu said: "You have been waiting for me for so long. Isn't your aunt anxious?"
Su Yingxue said: "I told her that her roommate in the dormitory is sick. I will come back to take care of him and stay in the dormitory tonight."
Li Mu nodded, came to his senses, and said, "Let's not just stand here stupidly. Let's go in and talk."
A trace of panic flashed across Su Yingxue's face: "I... I'd better go back to the dormitory. The dormitory door is not locked during the holiday."
Li Mu said: "Why are you fussing about it so late? Your roommates must have all slept. We are still the same as last time. You sleep in the master bedroom and I sleep on the side."
Su Yingxue hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly: "Okay."
It was indeed too late, and it was indeed not appropriate to go back to the dormitory. Besides, the two of them had slept here one night before. Su Yingxue was not worried about Li Mu at all, but she felt a little embarrassed deep inside, but it was not a problem.
Li Mu opened the door and entered the room with Su Yingxue. Su Yingxue breathed a sigh of relief as soon as she entered the room and walked straight to the radiator in the living room. She leaned her back against the radiator to keep warm. Li Mu hurriedly asked: "It's very hot in the corridor." Cold?"
Su Yingxue nodded and said awkwardly: "There is no heating in the corridor. It's still a bit cold after staying here for a long time."
Li Mu hurriedly said, "Why don't you go take a hot bath and warm yourself up first."
Su Yingxue asked him: "Do you still have the toothbrush and towel I bought last time?"
Li Mu nodded: "They're all here, they haven't moved."
Su Yingxue said: "Then I'm going to take a shower first." Then she walked to the bathroom.
At this time, the mobile phone in Li Mu's pocket suddenly rang two short message chord tones. Li Mu's whole body froze because of these two chord tones. Su Yingxue's figure was also obviously startled. Li Mu felt ashamed in his heart. He just said After using the excuse that the phone was out of battery, the phone rang in my pocket. This is too fucking bad! What should Su Yingxue think
Li Mu didn't know what to do. He didn't even know whether to take out his phone. The ringtone that just rang was a text message reminder. If he didn't click to check it, the phone would remind him again in a minute or so. Wouldn't it be wrong then? More embarrassing
However, if he took out his cell phone in front of Su Yingxue, how could he explain it to her? He said he had changed his phone number without telling her and deliberately lied to her? Is she worthy of having searched for him for so long and waiting for him in the cold corridor for so long
Su Yingxue was also stunned. Her first reaction was that she was a little angry. Li Mu's cell phone rang. Even if he didn't take out his cell phone, she was sure that the sound came from his cell phone. The cell phone was obviously charged, but why did he Want to tell yourself that your phone is out of battery? Moreover, the mobile phone obviously has power, why is it turned off when I keep making calls, and when everyone else is calling on it, why is it turned off
The smart Su Yingxue quickly guessed that Li Mu must have changed his number quietly, because this was the only explanation that made sense, otherwise it would be a bit contrary to common sense. After all, it is impossible for today's mobile phones to have firewalls like later generations of smartphones. , there is a blacklist, if you are prompted during a call that the other party has turned off his phone, then it must be turned off, there is no second possibility.
Although Su Yingxue was a little angry in her heart, she still didn't show it on her face. She felt that it was inevitable to be embarrassed if the stalemate continued like this, especially for Li Mu, whose face was already full of embarrassment. As for why Li Mu lied, she believed that Li Mu had Regarding your own reasons and reasons, you might as well give him some space first and let him decide whether or not to give himself an explanation, or how to give himself an explanation.
So Su Yingxue said: "I'm going to take a shower." After saying that, she quickly walked to the bathroom. When she heard the sound of the shower water being discharged from the bathroom, Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, she felt as if she had been tricked. His body-holding skills were average. Now that Su Yingxue wasn't looking at him, he took out his phone first, preparing to see who was sending him a text message so late, and what a coincidence.
When I opened it, I saw that the text message was from Lin Qingya. It just said: "Are you home?"
Li Mu lamented in his heart. Lin Qingya was also concerned about him so she asked if she was home yet. She was exposed for lying, so she couldn't express her anger at her, so she could only reply angrily: "Here we are, you should go to bed early."
Then, fearing that Lin Qingya would reply to the message again, he hurriedly muted his phone.
Sure enough, Lin Qingya replied almost instantly: "You should also go to bed early, good night!"
Li Mu didn't reply. All he was thinking about was how to explain to Su Yingxue. After all, she was worried because her phone was turned off, so she came here to wait. But she found out that she had lied. I don't know how heartbroken she was...
While Su Yingxue was taking a shower, Li Mu stood stupidly in the living room, thinking about how to explain it.
Tell the truth? To be honest, it’s a long story. Why did you turn off your phone? Why are you bombarded with phone calls? If we don’t tell the story of Makino Technology together, I’m afraid it will be difficult for others to accept this reason. Nowadays, mobile phones are relatively rare, and mobile phone bills are extremely expensive. Who has time to bombard them with phone calls? I've never heard of it, okay...
But if everything was told to the truth, this story would be too long. Moreover, Li Mu really didn’t want Su Yingxue to know about Makino Technology so early. He was afraid that if he told it, it would create an invisible distance between Su Yingxue and himself. , just like when I knew she was admitted to the National People's Congress, in contrast, I felt that the other person and I were not from the same world, and the distance suddenly widened a lot; when I found out that she was going abroad, this feeling of distance disappeared. It was even better. When my monthly salary was just over 10,000 yuan and someone else's annual salary was hundreds of thousands more, the distance felt like heaven and earth.
He and Su Yingxue are the same age, but they are worth hundreds of millions of yuan. You can imagine how shocked this fact is to people of the same age.
In the midst of the tangle, Su Yingxue had already walked out of the bathroom. She was fully dressed when she came out. She was wearing a hoodie on top and sweatpants on the bottom. Her hair was wrapped in a towel. When Su Yingxue went out, she saw Li Mu still standing there. It was almost the same as when she went in. She guessed that he must have been filled with guilt, and the unhappiness in his heart disappeared almost immediately. As for why he lied to herself, Su Yingxue didn't want to ask. If he wanted to say it, he would say it. If he didn't want to say it, , I will not ask any more questions.
