Zhijin had a daughter before.
Had.
Ning Li was slightly stunned, and then quickly understood what was going on.
That is, it is no longer there.
No wonder.
No wonder Shen Zhijin reacted like that when he heard Zhuzhou's words.
No matter how old the scar is, if it is torn again, it will still hurt.
Ning Li pursed her lips slightly, not knowing what to say for a while.
She thought of the pile of candies and gifts in the storage box of Shen Zhijin's co-pilot.
Especially those few small toys, which seemed to be bought a long time ago, but there is no trace of being played by children.
Shabby and brand new.
They just piled up in that dark and narrow space, day after day, lively and lonely.
Ding.
The elevator doors opened.
Xu Yin walked in first, and Ning Li followed.
After hesitating for a moment, Ning Li asked softly:
"Mr. Shen's daughter was born a long time ago"
Xu Yin made a "huh" sound, as if he had fallen into a distant memory.
"Many years."
He said, thinking of something, looked at Ning Li, and said with emotion:
"Speaking of which, if his daughter is still alive, she should be as old as you this year."
Ning Li was stunned.
It turned out that it was... already dead
Xu Yin shook his head:
"Forget it, it's all in the past."
There was a bit of pity and regret on his brows, as if he didn't want to mention it any more.
This is a hurdle that Shen Zhijin can't cross in his life. If it wasn't for Ning Li standing with him today and being mistaken by Zhu Zhou, which caused him to be distracted for a minute when he was giving the opening report, he would not have Talk more.
Over the years, not many people know what happened back then.
Even Shen Zhijin's students may not be clear about it.
But Ning Li is different.
On the one hand, she just so happens to be the same age as his daughter.
On the other hand, her appearance is indeed similar to that of Shen Zhijin.
Otherwise, Zhuzhou would not admit his mistake.
Xu Yin hesitated and said:
"A Li, you will follow Zhijin in the future, these things"
He has a meal.
Ning Li nodded slightly:
"I know."
She had asked Yan Qiu and others before, and they all said that Shen Zhijin had no children.
Losing his wife and daughter, such pain, no one should be willing to mention it again and again.
Xu Yin felt relieved, Ning Li was always sensible.
The elevator doors opened.
Xu Yin adjusted his expression and walked out.
Ning Li followed closely behind.
The schedule of the seminar was very full, and Ning Li had almost no rest throughout Saturday and Sunday.
However, I have gained a lot, and I have also met many bigwigs in the circle.
She is outstanding in herself, and she is highly valued by Xu Yin and Shen Zhijin. Many people are very optimistic about her.
It wasn't until six o'clock on Sunday afternoon, when the seminar was over, that she finally had a free moment.
"Junior sister, let's go."
While tidying up his things, Yan Qiu stood up, ready to leave.
Ning Li picked up her backpack and said:
"Brother, I won't go back with you today."
Yan Qiu showed surprise: "Why, you have arrangements?"
Ning Li nodded.
Yan Qiu suddenly showed a clear smile, with a bit of ridicule and teasing:
"I understand, I understand, I want to fall in love!"
Ning Li glanced away, and saw a familiar figure walking towards this side.
She paused: ".Actually not"
Yan Qiu winked at her:
"I've said it a long time ago, little junior sister, you are in the prime of your youth, what's the matter with spending time in the lab every day? You should spare some time for your boyfriend, right?"
Ning Li coughed lightly: "Brother, I think scientific research is also very important."
"Hey, little junior sister, you're not so enlightened! Tell me, you've been busy with meetings for the past two days, and you haven't even seen your boyfriend? Let me tell you that this boyfriend is also for coaxing."
Ning Li gave up struggling and looked at him quietly.
Yan Qiu didn't notice it, and said with a smile:
"Don't worry! Junior sister, you are so capable, when will you do the experiment? Senior brother won't mind if you spend more time and energy on dating—"
"Yan Qiu."
A clear voice came from behind.
In an instant, it was as if an invisible hand had grabbed Yan Qiu's neck.
His words stopped abruptly, and he froze in place, his ears buzzing.
He frantically gave Ning Li his eyes—why didn't he tell me that the boss was here!
Ning Li said that she couldn't help - I've reminded her several times just now, and it's so obvious, brother, you can't sense it yourself, so what can you do
Yan Qiu's heart was full of tears, and he wanted to die.
He turned around stiffly, showing a smile that was uglier than crying.
"Mr. Shen."
Shen Zhijin said lightly:
"Go back and make a summary of the content of the two-day seminar, and give it to me before the group meeting on Wednesday."
Yan Qiu:! ! !
so many! ! !
He's going to stay up all night!
But Shen Zhijin's order, he didn't have the guts to refute, so he could only bite the bullet and agree.
".OK."
Shen Zhijin looked at Ning Li:
"Ms. Xu has something to do at home, so I'll leave first. Aren't you going back to school?"
Ning Li nodded.
Shen Zhijin's lips moved slightly, but he didn't ask the rest of the words.
"Let's go."
The meeting ended and everyone left.
The three of them went down to the first floor and walked outside the gate.
At this time, it was getting dark, and people were coming and going on the square outside the conference center building.
But there is a tall and tall figure, which is particularly conspicuous.
He leaned against the car door, his long legs were slightly bent, and his posture was elegant and lazy.
The evening wind blew his shirt, revealing the cold white delicate collarbone under the collar.
As if aware of something, he looked up and looked this way.
It's hard to see such a complexion.
Many people looked towards him.
Just as Ning Li was about to go over, a strange man's voice came from beside him with a teasing voice.
He spoke in German, in an ambiguous tone:
"Jiang Ran, isn't that Lu Huaiyu
it's late, don't wait
