Originally, the negotiation with Lin Hui didn't need to be so stiff, and I didn't even need to tell him so many reasons. I just needed to clarify my attitude, and after turning back all contact methods were blocked, Lin Hui would naturally know, but Bai Duan End still said.
After she said this, she didn't regret it. She always felt that the young Ji Lin couldn't slap Lin Hui in the face. After nearly twenty years, she finally said it for him.
After Bai Duanduan finished speaking freely, he looked at Lin Hui, who was sitting on the seat with a gloomy and defeated expression. He looked up at her again, with a sad tone full of humble desire: "Duanduan, you want to break up with me. I... you said... I will think about it, I did a lot of things wrong, but I helped you in the most difficult time, now is my most difficult time, you can't... "
"No, she can."
Lin Hui's words were morally kidnapping, but as Bai Duanduan's benefactor, once he spoke, Bai Duanduan was always a grateful person, and he didn't know what to say for a while. When he was in a dilemma, the bead curtain of the box was blocked A hand with strong knuckles was pushed away, and then Ji Lin's cold and calm voice came over.
Lin Hui looked towards the door almost out of his mind, and then he saw Ji Lin standing there, tall and handsome, even though he stood against the light and looked indifferent, he still had a strong sense of presence, this little boy who once bit his hand, Before he knew it, he had grown into a man taller than himself.
Lin Hui, whose past had been exposed, felt like a naked person, with nothing to hide in front of Ji Lin and Bai Duanduan. He looked at Ji Lin dryly: "Ji Lin...you..."
Lin Hui thought that Ji Lin would get angry, argue with him, and break a cup no matter how bad it was, but none of this happened. Contrary to his expectations, Ji Lin just glanced at him indifferently, as if Looking at a dirty ant, there is no hatred in his eyes every time he met before, but quite peaceful.
"Lawyer Lin, you are also 40 years old, and you should know the rules when doing things. If it is about the official communication of the case, please remember not to go past me, who is also the lead lawyer, and only inform my colleagues; if it is about private matters I also ask you to respect yourself, don’t always contact my girlfriend who is bothering me privately, take up her time, and affect our young people’s love.”
Then Ji Lin looked at Bai Duanduan, swept away the indifference and expressionless face just now, his eyes were gentle, his tone was gentle, as if he suddenly jumped from the cold winter into spring, he said softly: "Duanduan, I'll take you Go home." Then he stretched out his hand towards Bai Duanduan.
Bai Duanduan looked at Ji Lin, couldn't help laughing, she said, okay, then stood up without hesitation, walked to Ji Lin's side, and held the other's with her own hand.
There is no need for words at this moment, the two people already knew everything in each other's eyes, they ignored Lin Hui in the box, but held hands tightly, and walked out side by side, as if entering a new chapter of life together, saying goodbye past.
Courage was never given by Liang Jingru, it was given by the love and trust between each other.
—
And it wasn't until they walked out of the restaurant hand in hand that Bai Duanduan finally couldn't help breaking the silence—
"Ji Lin...do you have anything to say?"
Just now, it was quite neat to counter Lin Hui's defense of Ji Lin, but now facing Ji Lin, Bai Duanduan felt shy unconsciously. She didn't know when Ji Lin came and how much he had heard.
Ji Lin stopped and took a look at Bai Duanduan, but he still didn't let go of his hand, but continued to hold it tighter, and then the hateful man looked forward indifferently: "Oh, it's nothing, I feel a little regretful."
Bai Duanduan was a little puzzled: "What do you regret?"
Ji Lin smiled, and pulled her forward again. After a while, he opened his mouth again: "If I knew that being miserable is so useful, I would have told you everything earlier."
He picked up the hand that Bai Duanduan was holding by himself, put it on his lips and kissed it lightly: "I didn't know that my girlfriend was so easily moved by the tragic past. If I knew it earlier, I would have loved her." If you tell all the miserable things earlier, does that mean you will be with me sooner?"
Bai Duanduan was a little unhappy: "No matter how miserable others are, I will only donate money. It is because of you that I am so emotional, as if I sympathize with others and will be with them." She bit her lip, He lowered his voice and said, "It's not because you like you. You always make fun of me because I like you..."
Sure enough, Ji Lin heard everything just now... Bai Duanduan felt shy and uneasy, and a little bit embarrassed. It's one thing to like someone, but like him, he showed his cards how much he likes him. When the time comes, I feel a little uneasy again, as if I am afraid that others will do something if they take advantage of my love. People's self-protection mechanism can't help but run.
"I haven't finished talking. I'm not proud of you liking me. I like you more as much as you like me. I just regret that you like me so much. If I sell badly, are we now Will the progress be faster?" At this point, Ji Lin suddenly leaned over to Bai Duanduan's ear, and said in a low voice that she could only hear, "For example, how many children have you given birth to me?"
Now Bai Duanduan's uneasy emotions were all gone, only his heartbeat that was so violent that it was about to get out of control, and his hot cheeks that might need to be put in the refrigerator to cool off.
This man Ji Lin... who is he! Insatiable! She defended him so much, and even took advantage of her words! If you give birth to a child, you will have a child, how many more will you have
Bai Duanduan felt that he couldn't even look at the handsome man walking beside him with a dignified face. I don't know how Ji Lin can use such a cold and restrained face to say such completely opposite temperament.
"Have you nothing else to say?"
Fortunately, when Bai Duanduan was about to run away shyly like a rabbit, Ji Lin finally recovered and became a human being, so he kissed Bai Duanduan's earlobe, and then kindly gave the rabbit a little buffer period: " I really regret not telling you earlier, so that you can only find out the truth by confronting Lin Hui in the end, and you have to meet him, and you have to get in touch with a despicable person like him." Ji Lin pursed his lips, "Next time Don't hide this from me, tell me, because your boyfriend is a little stronger than you think, he should protect you, and you never need to stand up and protect him."
Bai Duanduan's heartbeat finally calmed down a little, she looked up at Ji Lin: "You didn't tell me at the beginning, because you were afraid that I would be embarrassed or sad after you told me, and couldn't accept that Lin Hui is such a person, right?"
Ji Lin didn't say anything, which means he acquiesced.
Bai Duanduan was angry and funny: "Then I'll say it too. My boyfriend doesn't need my protection, but I don't need his protection either." She gently pulled La Jilin's hand, "I also don't need his protection." He is stronger than he imagined, and I can fight side by side with him, and I don’t need him to digest some emotions and bear some pressure for my feelings.”
Ji Lin looked at Bai Duanduan, and after a while, he finally responded "Yes".
Both of them concealed the other's actions or inactions, but no matter Ji Lin or Bai Duanduan, not only did they not create barriers because of the concealment, but they understood each other better. Their concealment was not out of deceit. Under the circumstances, when the two people encountered problems, their first reaction was to try their best to protect each other.
Bai Duanduan thought that the existence of races like Lin Hui and Du Xinyi was probably to show Ji Lin's cuteness and value.
Ji Lin clenched Bai Duanduan's hand again. After a moment of silence, he couldn't help but add: "You can tell me whatever happens to you in the future, don't carry it yourself."
"Then you will too."
…
Now that there is no secret between each other, Bai Duanduan and Ji Lin made a frank summary report: "Anyway, the matter is like this. I asked Rong Sheng first, and then I asked Lin Hui. After that, you will know too..."
Ji Lin nodded: "Then do you have anything else to ask me?"
Bai Duanduan subconsciously shook his head: "No."
But soon, she immediately realized that she needed to change her words.
Yes, she still has one more thing to ask Ji Lin, it's actually not a big deal at all, it's even a bit petty to say it, but Bai Duanduan still cares about it.
Bai Duanduan held back, but finally couldn't help it: "That's right, I heard that you worked hard at that time, and finally deducted some money from your living fee, and even bought a gift for your high school girl at the same table?"
Even if Rong Sheng said, it is absolutely impossible for Ji Lin to like that girl, but Bai Duanduan still minds for some reason.
And although Bai Duanduan tried her best to suppress it, the sour taste in her tone even made her feel a little embarrassed when she said it, so she immediately subconsciously changed the subject and said: "I'm just asking casually, after all, it happened so long ago , you may have forgotten too."
Regardless of whether he really forgot or not, as long as Ji Lin says he forgot, then he will... don't pursue it, after all, it's really not cute for a girl to fall in love and turn over old scores...
However, Ji Lin seemed to have made up his mind to confront Bai Duanduan, he answered this question almost decisively: "I still remember, I remember quite clearly."
"..."
Bai Duanduan always feels that sometimes Ji Lin's desire to survive is not too strong, and he has already stepped him down. Why do he remember such things so clearly? Even if you really remember, you have to say you don't remember. Why don't men understand that sometimes a good memory is not a good thing, but a danger!
Ji Lin didn't notice Bai Duanduan's thoughts at all, he continued directly: "I didn't eat for three days, so I saved the money and bought a pink music box. little girl, the music is "Fur Elise"... "
Ji Lin remembered it so clearly, and Bai Duanduan became even more unhappy: "You still bought someone a pink heart shape." She gave Ji Lin a sour look, "Ji Lin, to be honest, are you still Have you really liked someone?"
Ji Lin froze for a moment: "What are you talking about? I never liked her, but I thought she was kinder to me at the time, so I just wanted to give her a birthday present."
"Give me a pink heart on my birthday, and the song is "Fur Elise". Do you know when Beethoven wrote this song? It was written by Beethoven, who is nearly forty years old, to a female student he has a crush on. Well, maybe they are trying to use the song to show their love for a teacher-student relationship? If you give it off like this, let alone your female deskmate, even me, I want to be crooked... "
"In the store I went to, all the music boxes were like that, there was nothing to choose, and I had to rush to work after buying, so I didn't have time to choose."
"..."
Ji Linli added bluntly: "As for what the music is, I didn't have time to listen to it when I picked it, and I only found out later."
I found out later! Didn't I just find out later that I still listened to it? ! On the one hand, he explained as if he didn’t care about choosing a gift for the other party, and he didn’t even pick the music, but on the other hand, he had a self-contradictory “I didn’t know until later”...
Bai Duanduan's heartache for Ji Lin suddenly faded away, he just felt sore, his hands were itchy, and he wanted to beat him up.
Sure enough, you can't be too smart in love, Bai Duanduan thought angrily, he blamed himself for being too good at logical thinking, and didn't let go of any clues, but suddenly found out the contradictions in Ji Lin's words, how angry!
Ji Lin was silent for a moment and didn't say anything else. Soon, the two of them arrived in front of Ji Lin's car. Bai Duanduan sat in the passenger seat without saying a word, and then watched Ji Lin start to drive home.
And at the first traffic light intersection, Ji Lincai finally looked at Bai Duanduan as if he suddenly remembered something: "Are you jealous just now?"
Bai Duanduan pursed her lips tightly: "No." She pretended to be calm and said lightly, "Am I such a stingy person? Would I be angry and jealous about such old rotten grains? Ji Lin, I am a mature I'm a lawyer, I'm very sensible, even if you really liked her at the beginning, how many years ago? Besides, you were young, had no experience of the world, lacked love, had poor eyesight, and worrying taste, even if you liked her It's not that the other party can't understand, after all, who hasn't been blind once or twice when they were young?"
"..."
No matter how dull Ji Lin is, he has tasted something at this time, he explained: "I don't like her."
"No, you don't have to explain to me, I don't care."
It's a girl who wants to hear her boyfriend continue to coax her at this time, such things as duplicity are something that individuals can't escape, and when they are in love, they can't help but want to make fun of it. Bai Duanduan's psychology is actually quite Simple, she didn't really care about this matter, but she didn't really care about it either. The extent of her caring was probably - it needed to be coaxed by Ji Lin.
"That's good."
But Bai Duanduan never imagined that after he finished saying that he didn't care, Ji Lin really thought he didn't care anymore, so he really didn't want to explain, let alone say a few nice words to coax himself.
…
This is really... This kind of deadly man, I fell in love with, even if I kneel down, I will love him to the end...
Bai Duanduan sat in the car sullenly, feeling aggrieved, but it was him who said he didn't care just now, and it would be too embarrassing to jump out and slap himself in the face to make a fuss.
So she watched in silence all the way as Ji Lin drove back to the underground garage of the community, and then went upstairs. Bai Duanduan was going back to his own room, but was dragged back to his house by Ji Lin before opening the door.
"I'm cooking tonight."
All right, in the face of delicious food, Bai Duanduan still succumbed.
A moment later, she was sitting in Ji Lin's living room, trying to adjust her mentality, the past is the past, the present is the present, as long as she owns the present and future of this man, why do she care about so much of the past.
Fortunately, Bai Duanduan is not a pushy person, and soon, Ji Lin's delicious food was released, she was immediately attracted by the food, and she began to feast on it, and the atmosphere became gentle and warm, and the two of them stopped chatting about Lin Lin. Hui, but began to chat about the follow-up strategy of Xie Miao's case.
After a meal, he ate happily, and soon, Bai Duanduan also forgot the sour episode just now. After the meal, Ji Lin didn't let her clean up the dishes, and went to the kitchen alone, and just let Bai Duanduan sit on the sofa to rest.
Bai Duanduan played with his mobile phone on the sofa for a while, then looked into the kitchen, only to find that Ji Lin was not in the kitchen.
She waited curiously for a moment before seeing Ji Lin coming out of the study with a bag.
"The dishes have been washed? Do you really not want my help?"
"No need." Ji Lin sat down beside Bai Duanduan, and gently brushed away the hair that fell from Bai Duanduan's face, "I don't really want you to wash the dishes."
It's just such a simple sentence, but Bai Duanduan feels like he's getting better all of a sudden.
Well... this kind of words sound a little happy...
"this is for you."
Bai Duanduan looked at the bag Ji Lin stuffed into his hand, a little puzzled: "What is this?"
After asking, she opened the bag and found—
A bag of twist.
"Rong Sheng gave it to me, I know you like it."
Although it's just a bag of twist, Bai Duanduan is still very happy. It's not an expensive thing, but this kind of plain happiness is also very beautiful.
"There are more below."
Following Ji Lin's words, Bai Duanduan dug into the bag again, and found a jewelry box.
"The kaleidoscope bracelet of the VCAperlee series, I bought it for you last time, but you haven't come to get it yet."
Bai Duanduan suddenly laughed a little: "The one you didn't buy for your mother?"
Ji Lin was a little embarrassed, he looked away: "Yes."
Bai Duanduan opened the box, and the first time she saw the bracelet, she couldn't put it down, then she looked at Ji Lin, and stretched out her hand to him: "Then help me wear it."
Ji Lin froze for a moment, then picked up the bracelet, and tried to put it on Bai Duanduan clumsily, but this partner with an annual income of half a billion had obviously never started this business, Ji Lin hurriedly put it on three times before finally Dai Chenggong.
"Well, it's beautiful."
But just as Ji Lin was about to take his hand away, Bai Duanduan hooked his fingers with his backhand.
She looked at him seriously: "I regret it."
Ji Lin paused, and then a little unconcealable uneasiness appeared on his face: "Do you regret being with me?" Then he quickly added, "I have never been in a relationship, maybe I was not very skilled in business at first, but I will treat you better…”
"No, Ji Lin, are you stupid? I never regret being with you."
"What I regret is that I lied just now."
Ji Lin raised his head and looked at Bai Duanduan.
Bai Duanduan blushed a little, but decided to confess and confess to himself: "Just now... I was actually jealous just now." Once he said it, it seemed that there was nothing to hide, and Bai Duanduan simply gave up on himself, "I'm not happy, You even bought her a music box with a pink heart! You haven’t even bought it for me! I want it too! What’s so good about that female deskmate! Be nice to you and buy her a birthday present, I’m so pissed off, I'm not happy, you can't, in the future, when others are friendly to you, you can't buy them birthday gifts, and you have to get my approval first if you say happy birthday, I'm not a person who understands righteousness, I also I'm not rational, I'm not a mature lawyer, I'm narrow-minded, I'm petty, if you are nice to others, I will be unhappy, I can't help it... You have to be nice to others in the future, you can only be nice to other men, Rong Sheng , Rong Sheng can barely do it, although he is not a decent person, but he is a man... "
"Duanduan." Ji Lin interrupted Bai Duanduan, "Look down, there is still something for you in the bag."
Bai Duanduan was interrupted, and angrily took out her bag, and then she took out a...
A pink, heart-shaped thing.
A music box.
Compared with the current level of craftsmanship, this music box is simply rough and clumsy, and the pink color is also a bit tacky. With the ravages of time, the poor-quality outer paint has also tended to be mottled, like an old antique that is dying of age.
Bai Duanduan opened the music box, and put a little girl dancing ballet on it. She turned the switch of the music box and moved the comb teeth with the tip of the needle, and "Fur Elise" flowed out of the ugly music box, while wearing a ballet skirt The little girl twirls and dances on the mirror of the music box...
Bai Duanduan raised his head and looked at Ji Lin: "This is... This is the music box you gave to that female tablemate before? Did you get it back?"
"En." Ji Lin also looked at her, and then he lowered his eyes somewhat unnaturally: "Since she despises cheap and doesn't like it, then I will ask her to get it back. I don't need to give it to her if I want it. Those who cherish it are ruined, not to mention this was very expensive in my opinion at the time."
Bai Duanduan's heart was soft and sore, she gently cupped Ji Lin's face with her hands: "So you know this soundtrack, you only heard it after you brought it back?"
"kindness."
Ji Lin covered Bai Duanduan's hand with his own, and then grabbed it and kissed it. He looked a little shy and awkward, but his eyes were sincere: "So don't be jealous, and don't be angry. Oh, I didn't lie to you, I never liked her, and I really didn't pay attention when choosing a gift for her, but if it was a gift for you, I would definitely not do this, I would shop around and read the reviews carefully, and put the best Pick out the best and most expensive things for you."
How could Bai Duanduan be angry? She even regretted it a bit. She felt that she was a little unreasonable just now, so she felt embarrassed.
"I... I'm not usually like this." She stammered and explained, "I'm not such a narrow-minded person..."
"It's okay, I like whatever you do." Ji Lin didn't care, "Maybe you're jealous because you care about me." Having said that, he coughed and added unnaturally, "For example, I will too, yes Everyone knows it, it's normal, the more you like it, the more you know it, it's nothing."
I have to say, Ji Lin's words are not so much comforting Bai Duanduan, but rather comforting and persuading himself...
But Bai Duanduan has to admit that this man is cute sometimes when his mouth is stiff.
Ji Lin glanced at the music box in Bai Duanduan's hand: "This is a bit old, and it's really cheap. It's not suitable to give it to you, but I still want to give it to someone who will cherish it."
Following Ji Lin's gaze, Bai Duanduan also looked at the music box in his hand. It was old and not expensive, but Bai Duanduan liked it very much because it looked like a heart, like a heart. A heart that Ji Lin gave to him, his heart.
Bai Duanduan thought so, and said so, Ji Lin was stunned for a moment, then leaned over and kissed Bai Duanduan, first his forehead, then his eyes, nose tip, cheek, and then his lips, gently pried them open, and slid into Bai Duanduan's mouth. Full lips.
It was a very, very gentle kiss, Ji Lin didn't say anything, but in this lingering kiss, Bai Duanduan already felt that he was cherished, loved and pampered.
Before each other's breathing became unstable, Ji Lin withdrew from Bai Duanduan's mouth, and then gently pressed his forehead against Bai Duanduan's. He glanced at the heart-shaped music box, and said in a sexy, deep and seductive voice Pun softly said: "So my heart, you put it away, it will be yours from now on."
The author has something to say: 500 red envelopes will be randomly dropped in the comments of more than 15 characters in this chapter
The mobile phone I used to post the article was outside yesterday. I was a little blind when I repaired it myself. There is a short paragraph that is a bit repetitive, maybe about three or four hundred words? But the number of words in the VIP chapter cannot be deleted (only added), and it seems that there is nothing to add if I just delete it and then add some water, so in order to make up for everyone, I will write a small extra compensation on Weibo~
[small theater]
Rong Sheng: Hehe, how did I become an unruly man? In terms of indecency, isn't it even more indecorous when Ji Lin and Bai Duanduan are together
