Before the secretary finished his introduction, the two people had already exclaimed in unison.
Qu Liufeng was wearing a dark-colored suit, with every seam ironed straight. He looked like a shrewd businessman, which was in sharp contrast to the depression reported in the news.
"You..." When the question came to her lips, it was stuck in her throat. She suddenly remembered what Ito said. In fact, Qu Liufeng had already established his own business outside, but he never had it because of various relationships.
It can only be announced to the outside world.
"Hello, I'm Muxue's Leng Qin." She put aside the surprise in her heart and quickly changed the subject into a formulaic greeting and introduction.
"Qu Liufeng." After hesitating for a few seconds, Qu Liufeng quickly reported his name without much hesitation.
After the two people introduced each other, they walked into the office together.
Putting aside all other relationships, the sample manuscript Leng Qin submitted was indeed great! After reading the manuscript and all official matters being handled, Qu Liufeng asked lightly, "How are you... lately?"
"
"I wonder what Mr. Qu is referring to?"
He raised his eyebrows lazily, without any intention of being perfunctory, but there was no longer the familiar gentle tone in the past.
"Your physical condition, and... your child!"
"Thank you, Mr. Qu, for your concern. The child and I are both fine." As soon as she mentioned the child, her expression changed slightly. Her distant words revealed an unfamiliar aura.
"Master Qu, if there are no other problems with the manuscript, I will take my leave!"
The voice is crisp and clear, without much emotion, as calm as a clear spring.
"It's already noon. If Miss Leng wants to show your favor, why don't we have lunch together?"
"It's an honor." After a moment of hesitation, she agreed naturally without being too pretentious.
They have a cooperative relationship, so there is nothing wrong with having a meal together. What's more, she has to seize the rare opportunity to be alone!
They had just walked out of the office, and the ringtone of their cell phones was ringing violently, "Yao Yao, what's the matter?" His tone of voice was not very good, it could even be said that there was a hint of strong displeasure.
I don't know why, when facing Gu Qingyao, he no longer had the same enthusiasm as before, and even showed a slight boredom. Although it was not serious, it was still real.
"Liu Feng, where are you now? I'm hungry. Didn't you promise to have dinner with me at noon?"
"I don't have time at noon, you can go and eat by yourself!"
"But, you clearly agreed to have lunch with me..." Gu Qingyao's dissatisfied voice came from the other end of the phone, even mixed with a sharp roar.
Even Leng Qin, who was standing next to him, heard her voice, turned his eyes, and raised a faint smile at the corner of his mouth. She walked straight forward, and she didn't know whether it was because of her unsteady steps or the slippery ground.
For some reason, her steps staggered, her body leaned forward unsteadily, and she almost fell.
Fortunately, she held on to the cupboard beside her in time. Although she did not fall, she still inevitably let out a exclamation. The clear and crisp voice reached Gu Qingyao's ears along the phone.
"Liu Feng, what was that sound just now? There is a woman beside you, right? Where are you now? Did you go out to find another woman? You..."
"Stop making trouble, I still have things to deal with, that's all." After the words fell, he hung up the phone harshly.
He walked forward quickly, held Leng Qin's body, and asked worriedly, "Xiao Qin, are you okay?"
"My foot seems to be twisted!"
She moved her ankle, only to find a bit of piercing pain coming from her ankle. Well, it seemed that she couldn't do anything bad, so she tried to pretend to fall, but she actually sprained her foot.
She spat secretly in her heart, her little face wrinkled tightly because of the pain.
"Move and see if you can still walk?"
Leng Qin tried to stand up straight and tried to take steps, but before she even lifted her feet, her body fell heavily to the side.
Qu Liufeng's expression changed, he picked her up, placed her on the sofa nearby, squatted down, and untied the thin straps of her high heels.
"Young Master Qu, no, you can't..."
"Be good, show me!"
It seemed that when he was back in the Qu family compound, he was talking to him in the same calm tone. His eyes dimmed slightly, and a darker hatred flashed through them than before.
Qu Liufeng carefully took off her shoes. What he saw made him gasp. Her ankle was already swollen.
"Will it hurt?" He raised his hand and touched it lightly, which immediately caused her to gasp.
"I'll take you to the hospital!"
Before she could say whether it hurt or not, he had already answered for her.
"No need, I'll just go back and apply some medicinal wine." She said calmly, using retreat as a way to advance.
"No, it's swollen like this. I can't do it without seeing a doctor!"
His stubbornness was always frightening. Before she could say anything, he had already hooked up her shoes with his fingers, picked her up and walked towards the elevator.
"Doctor, is her foot okay?"
Even though the old Chinese medicine doctor had seen it, done a massage, and applied ointment, Qu Liufeng still asked worriedly.
"It's nothing serious. In the recent period, be careful not to exert force on your feet. Apply the ointment twice a day. If you want to feel better faster, just do more massages to relax the meridians and activate the meridians. It won't take more than a week!"
"Thanks."
After thanking the doctor, he carried her out of the old medical center.
"Young Master Qu, I'm sorry to trouble you!"
Because the way he held him was wrong, she could only raise her hands and wrap them around his neck to hold herself up from falling.
"Don't say such kind words to me. Don't forget, you are wrestling in my company, and I am also responsible!"
Her politeness made him frown slightly in displeasure. When he walked to the car, he pressed the remote control lock, bent over, opened the door, and put her gently on the passenger seat.
Leng Qin smiled, thanked him in a low voice, then watched him turn around, walked around the front of the car and sat in the driver's seat.
"It seems that when I meet you, I always get into trouble and go to the hospital. This time I sprained my foot at the company. Last time..." When the words came to her lips, she did not continue, her face had changed slightly.
changes.
"Last time, last time, what happened?"
She frowned and tried hard to think about something, but her mind was just blank. It seemed that some memories were about to rush out, but they were severely hindered.
"Don't you... remember what happened last time?" Qu Liufeng asked uneasily, with a touch of astonishment in his eyes.
"I clearly remember what happened in the elevator that day, why can't I remember anything..." Her expression was a little painful, and she held her head tightly with both hands, trying with all her strength to remember something, but
It's still just a futile effort.
Seeing her painful appearance, Qu Liufeng suddenly remembered what Mu Nianxue said that day, "She suffers from severe depression, and she will have various hallucinations..."
His heart throbbed violently, and he clenched his right hand into a fist, his joints turning slightly white, and his chest was filled with inexplicable grief.
"Why, I can't remember anything? Why? What did I forget..." She shook her head hard, and even raised her hand to hit her head, and the painful expression on her face became more and more serious.
"Xiaoqin, nothing happened that day, nothing happened..."
Without any hesitation, he hugged her tightly into his arms, leaving no gap. The expression on his face was also infected by her, exuding a touch of sadness.
"No, you lied to me. Something must have happened that day! Tell me, what exactly happened?" Leng Qin obviously didn't believe what he said. She struggled a few times and tried to break free from his arms, but he pulled her away.
Hug me tighter!
"No, nothing really happened. It was just that the elevator malfunctioned and you were too scared and fainted..."
His eyebrows furrowed fiercely, and his eyes exuded heavy gloom and pain.
If possible, he really hoped to share her pain with her and not let her bear it alone. This kind of pain was really too painful.
This is so unfair to her!
"You...liar!"
"No, I didn't lie to you, I really just fainted!" He didn't know what Leng Ye and Mu Nianxue told her after she woke up.
By this time, he had no way to ask them for confirmation, so he could only guess and carry out his lies to the end.
"Really?"
Perhaps it was his stubbornness that made her suppress her doubtful thoughts and murmured in disbelief.
"Really." He responded firmly. After realizing that her mood had stabilized, he relaxed his grip and just patted her back gently to comfort her.
Under his comfort, her mood finally eased little by little.
"I'm sorry, I lost my temper..." The dull voice was filled with a hint of hoarseness, and it was full of all kinds of strange emotions.
"Where should we go for lunch?" He didn't care about her condition at the moment. Even if she was wearing pajamas, I'm afraid he wouldn't mind going out with her!
"It seems inconvenient for me to go out to eat when I'm like this... Why don't you take me home." Leng Qin glanced at his feet in confusion and said calmly.
"I know a Chinese restaurant. The soup there is very good. I'm going to pack some. Let's go directly to the company to eat!"
He didn't seem to hear Leng Qin's words about going home at all. He was talking to himself and even had a series of plans in his mind.
Regardless of whether Leng Qin had agreed or not, he turned the front of the car and drove towards his destination.
Just as the car drove out of the temporary parking space, a car slowly drove out at the corner of the street, leaning against the front of the model car, blocking the person in the driver's seat, making it impossible to see clearly what was in front of the person above.
