"Yeah." After hearing a satisfactory answer, Mu Li raised his eyes and glanced at Lin Qing, "Then you don't know what the conditions for staying are?"
Lin Qing was stunned: "What is it?" She really didn't know.
Mu Li raised his chin slightly and pointed to the kitchen: "Make breakfast."
It was already ten o'clock, and he was sitting on the sofa with a cup of coffee. Was he waiting for her to come down and make breakfast? Could he bear to let himself starve until now
"Oh... but I'm too tired to get up." Lin Qing rubbed his groggy head. It was obvious that he didn't get enough sleep. "Can't you get yourself something to eat?"
Order takeout and make your own poached eggs
Mu Li put down his coffee cup and squinted at her: "Are you indirectly praising me?"
Lin Qing looked like he hadn't woken up yet, a little confused: "What did you praise me for?"
Mu Li nodded with satisfaction, and pulled Lin Qing into his arms, playing with her long hair with his slender fingers: "Since you said so, you don't have to make breakfast in the future. Anyway, I will be too tired every night and I will definitely not be able to get up the next day."
The long, thin hair wrapped around his fingertips several times, leaving a shallow mark.
Lin Qing opened his eyes slightly, suddenly realizing what he meant. He slapped his big hand away and was about to get off his legs: "Be more careful next time. I still have to go to work."
"Go to work?" Mu Li's fingers paused, but he did not let Lin Qing escape, but hugged her tighter.
Lin Qing hummed solemnly, raised his delicate little face and arched his eyebrows.
laugh
Mu Li threw the phone into Lin Qing's arms: "I quit."
Lin Qing's face wrinkled.
After losing his memory, is this man planning to do all the stupid things he did before all over again
"No way!" Lin Qing threw the phone away. The phone rolled twice on the sofa and lay there. She frowned and stared at Mu Li, "I like my current job. Don't even think about asking me to quit."
"Again?" Mu Li seemed to have grasped the key words, and his dark eyes flickered a few times, "I have done this before?"
Lin Qing curled his lips: "No, how could you do such a stupid thing, it was done by others."
She was joking at first, relying on Mu Li's amnesia to win back the game. Unexpectedly, Mu Li's face immediately darkened, and he grasped her chin with his slender fingers and turned her face around: "Besides me, who else has done this to you?"
Seeing the look in his eyes that seemed to be serious, Lin Qing quickly smiled and waved her hands: "No, no, it was you who asked me to quit last time, and later I insisted for a long time before you reluctantly agreed to let me continue working. It's just that you have lost your memory now and don't remember it."
When he heard the word amnesia, complex emotions flashed in Mu Li's eyes.
After Lin Qing finished speaking, she bit her lip and stopped talking.
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet, and a chill filled the air.
This has always been a joke between them. Although no one mentioned it, Mu Li always felt that Lin Qing cared a lot about his amnesia.
Because of what happened before, Lin Qing now tries to avoid it if possible.
After a while, Mu Li held her on his legs and looked far away: "Do you really want me to regain my memory?"
Lin Qing lowered his head and pinched his fingers, then shook his head: "No. Although I really hoped that you could remember it before, I now feel that it doesn't matter if I don't have those memories. As long as you are here, it doesn't matter whether you remember the past or not."
"What if I never remember what happened before, will you regret it?" He didn't know how much he loved her in the past. If he didn't love her enough now, would she feel bad
"No. What I want is you as you are now, Mu Li, I'm sure of that." Lin Qing loosened her fingers and reached out to hug Mu Li's neck. Her two small hands tightly circled him into her territory. Her clear eyes were firm and stubborn. He knew that as long as it was her decision, she would not regret it.
Perhaps from a long time ago, it no longer matters whether those memories can be found.
What she wants to protect is this man, not that memory.
Mu Li pursed his lips, his eyes fixed on the distant window, and he hugged the person in his arms tighter.
Lin Qing was going out at noon. Mu Li came out of the study and was about to see Lin Qing preparing to go downstairs.
"Where are you going?" He leaned against the wall outside the study, smiling.
Lin Qing suddenly paused, turned around and frowned: "Aren't you busy?"
So you want to sneak out
It wasn't quite appropriate to use the word "slip away" either, after all, she no longer had to worry about him driving her away or confining her to her home.
Mu Li narrowed his eyes, put down his rolled-up sleeves and fastened his cuffs: "I'm not busy. I'll accompany you wherever you want to go."
Lin Qing waved his hand, his eyebrows forming crescents as he smiled: "No, no, just focus on your own things, don't worry about me."
"Don't worry about you?" Seeing Lin Qing's smile, Mu Li felt more and more that something was wrong. He took two steps forward and grabbed Lin Qing's wrist. "Which man are you going to meet?"
Lin Qing's heart skipped a beat: "It's not a man, it's Lu Xiao. I want to go to the hospital to see how she is doing."
She was telling the truth. She couldn't rest assured when she thought that Lu Xiao might be alone in the hospital. She was so nervous because she heard from Lu Xiao this morning that Chen Qudong was also staying in the hospital after his arm was dislocated, and he was staying in the ward opposite Lu Xiao.
If Mu Li also went, a fight would be inevitable when the two met.
Too bloody.
But the more Lin Qing said this, the more Mu Li's suspicion grew. Rather than suspicion, it would be more accurate to say that he was filled with jealousy.
"Lin Qing, do you think I'm so easy to fool?" There was a cloud in Mu Li's eyes, and Lin Qing's eyes dodged slightly.
This dodging made Mu Li more certain of his thoughts.
"Lin Qing, either let me accompany you today, or I will make sure you don't have the strength to go out for three days." The meaning of his words was too obvious, and Lin Qing suddenly raised her eyes to look at him.
"No, no, no, I asked you to stay with me, don't be angry!" Thinking that she was almost exhausted last night, if she couldn't go out for three days, she was afraid that she would never have to go out again.
Lin Qing obediently went to hold Mu Li's hand, and her little hand was wrapped in his big hand, feeling a warmth.
"Are you not leaving yet?" The gloom in Mu Li's eyes had obviously not dissipated, and his voice was cold.
Lin Qing chuckled and interlocked their fingers, and Mu Li's frown relaxed a little.
The two of them went downstairs together, and as soon as they entered the parking lot, they saw a red figure walking towards them. The ten-centimeter high heels made a dull sound on the ground, and the parking lot was very large, so the sound echoed continuously.
"Li, where are you going?" Xu Yuan stood in front of the two of them, completely ignoring Lin Qing's existence.
Mu Li let go of Lin Qing's hand. Lin Qing's eyes darkened, she bit her lip and lowered her head. A big hand held her in his arms in the next moment, letting her head lean on his shoulder obediently.
"Get out of the way." Mu Li frowned slightly and didn't even look at Xu Yuan.
Xu Yuan's eyes widened, she couldn't believe that these were words coming out of Mu Li's mouth. Mu Li hadn't contacted her for the past few days, and she happened to be going abroad for a project of the company. When she came back, she heard the rumor that Mu Li and Lin Qing had reconciled.
This is simply unbearable.
Lin Qing was like a nightmare that she couldn't get rid of no matter what she did. Thinking of how Mu Li cared about her not long ago, she didn't know that it was not so much caring as it was a choice Mu Li made to resist Lin Qing.
In the end, it was all because of Lin Qing.
He was indeed very good to Xu Yuan during the period when he just lost his memory. However, after these treatments, although his memory was not restored, he hated Xu Yuan from the bottom of his heart.
The doctor said this might be a sign, that past memories are reminding you of what those people meant to you before you lost your memory.
"Why? I was only away for two days, and you were seduced by this woman?" Xu Yuan was so angry that he pointed at Lin Qing in his arms and shouted.
Xu Yuan was so angry that she forgot that the person holding Lin Qing in his arms was Mu Li. She turned to look at Mu Li again with a face full of grievance, and Mu Li looked at her with cold eyes.
This was the first time he saw Xu Yuan, but his eyes were as cold as a pond, making people tremble all over.
"If you really understand me, you should know that I will not say the same thing twice." Mu Li opened his thin lips slightly, and when he finished speaking, he had already walked past Xu Yuan with Lin Qing.
"Mu Li!" Xu Yuan turned around in a hurry, hesitated for a moment but didn't chase after him, "Does what you said before mean nothing? How could you do this to me!"
"What did I say before that doesn't count?" Mu Li raised his brows coldly, paused, lowered his head and kissed Lin Qing on the forehead, "I told you to stay away from Lin Qing, did you do it?"
Xu Yuan was stunned, his eyes wide open, as if he suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
It’s Lin Qing again!
"Stay away from her? Mu Li, you want me to stay away from her now?" Xu Yuan sneered and walked in front of the two of them, his eyes full of sarcasm, "When she was with another man, why didn't you let me stay away from her and not see the dirty things she did!"
Xu Yuan made this up, but maybe she was so angry that the lie became true. Mu Li had always been resentful of Chen Qudong. In his opinion, the existence of this person was a mistake. Now hearing this from Xu Yuan, even if he didn't believe that they had anything in common, he felt very unhappy.
Lin Qing pursed her lips and frowned slightly: "Xu Yuan, stop spitting blood at me. There is nothing between me and the senior. Do you think it's fun to always say these things?"
Xu Yuan smiled even colder and more intensely, almost resisting the urge to drag Lin Qing out of the man's arms: "Is it interesting? Then ask yourself, is it interesting for you to be involved in unclear affairs with so many men?"
"Shut up!" Mu Li glanced at him coldly, the coldness in his eyes became more and more intense, he clenched his fists with the hands in his trouser pockets, and the veins on his arms bulged.
He knew that Lin Qing had never done those things, but he couldn't bear to hear a word Xu Yuan said.
It’s not other people’s turn to comment on his woman!
Xu Yuan was so frightened that his whole body trembled. He bit his lip and stared at Lin Qing fiercely.
She had said long ago that as long as she didn't drive Lin Qing away, she would never be able to truly be with Mu Li.
"Don't be angry..." Lin Qing shrank in Mu Li's arms, pressing tightly against his chest. She could feel Mu Li's anger even with her eyes lowered, and hurriedly pulled Mu Li's arm around her.
Mu Li looked down at the woman in his arms, the hostility in his eyes dissipated a little, he took out the car key from his trouser pocket, unlocked it, and walked with Lin Qing to the car.
Before leaving, he only said one word to Xu Yuan: Get out.
