At noon that day, Jing Li made an appointment with the agent to sign a contract with the landlord, but unlike her original plan, she only signed a three-month lease.
Jing Li couldn't tell why.
Probably, suddenly, the future becomes more uncertain.
She always felt that she would not live in this place for long.
After getting the key to the apartment, Jing Li went into the house to do a general cleaning that afternoon. After all the things were packed, she took Xi Xi back to Huo's house.
Huo Qiran had a temporary event organized by the school to participate in today, and he hadn't gone home yet. When Jing Li took Xi Xi into the Huo family hall, Mu Qian was the only one sitting on the sofa and talking on the phone.
Seeing Jing Li coming back, Mu Qian raised her hand to say hello, and hurriedly ended the call. Then she looked at them with a smile, "You're back? Xi Xi, come here, Auntie will give you some strawberries."
Xi Xi happily ran to Mu Qian, and Mu Qian stuffed a strawberry into her mouth. The little girl was so happy that her eyes narrowed into slits.
Jing Li saw this situation in her eyes, smiled, walked over and sat down, paused, and said to Mu Qian: "Auntie, Xi Xi and I found a place to move today, so we are going to move there.
.I’m really sorry for bothering you these past two days.”
When Mu Qian heard this, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly, "Have you found a place to move now? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"The sooner you find a place to live, the sooner you can feel at ease." Jing Li said.
"What's wrong with living in our house?" Mu Qian said, "Qi Ran is happy when you live here."
Hearing this, Jing Li seemed to be in a trance for a moment, and then smiled again: "He is about to start school, so we can't bother him all the time."
"What are you afraid of when school starts?" Mu Qian said, "Didn't you study together last semester?"
After hearing this, Jing Li smiled again and did not answer. She paused and then said: "Auntie, thank you very much to you and uncle, and Huo Qiran... Fortunately, you guys helped me. During the time we lived here, Xi and I
Xi is also very happy. If there is a chance in the future, I will bring Xi Xi back to see you."
"What you said makes it sound like you are moving out tonight." Mu Qian said, "Is it possible that you won't even be able to stay here tonight?"
"I can't live any longer." Jing Li said, "I want to take Xi Xi there early and stay one night so that she can get used to it."
Mu Qian raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Are you really so anxious?"
Jing Li smiled and said, "I'm not in a hurry, but it's just right..."
After hearing this, Mu Qian sighed slightly and said, "You insist on moving, and I can't stop you, so just wait until Qi Ran comes back to see you off."
"No need." Jing Li quickly waved her hand and said, "Xi Xi and I don't have anything. We only have one bag. We can just take a taxi and get there. It's very convenient."
Mu Qian looked at her again, nodded slightly, and said nothing more, "I know if it's easy to take a taxi here at my home. If it doesn't work, I'll ask the driver to take you there."
"Thank you, auntie." Jing Li responded with a light smile, and then took Xi Xi upstairs to pack her things.
After a while, she came downstairs carrying the bag she came with. Mu Qian happened to come out of the kitchen, saw them, and couldn't help but said: "Is it all done so quickly? I thought you could wait until Qi Ran came back.
"
"I sent him a message and told him." Jing Li said with a smile, "Auntie, let's leave first. Thank you for taking care of me these days."
Mu Qian put down the things in her hands and said, "I'll ask the driver to drive out."
"No need, Auntie," Jing Li said hurriedly, "I've called a car. You can sit down when you get out."
"Did you call a car?" Mu Qian was a little confused.
Jing Li responded, "We're almost there, let's go out first. Goodbye, aunt."
She taught Xi Xi to say goodbye to Mu Qian, and Mu Qian waved in response with a helpless smile, then saw Jing Li running away, hugging Xi Xi and hurried out.
Mu Qian walked all the way to the door of the hall, looked at her back, and couldn't help but sigh again.
Jing Li carried Xi Xi out of the Huo family's gate and walked towards the highway.
It is really impossible to take a taxi on this section of the private road in the Huo family. Fortunately, the distance is not long, and Jing Li is willing to take this section of the road.
Although Xi Xi felt a little unhappy about leaving the Huo family, she did not lose her temper and just leaned on Jing Li's shoulder obediently.
There were no cars or people on this road. When she walked about a thousand meters, Jing Li suddenly saw a car approaching from the front.
Anyone who could drive on this road had something to do with the Huo family. Before Jing Li could react, she had already ducked behind a tree and hid herself.
The car quickly passed her.
Jing Li saw that it was Huo Qiran's car.
She saw him, but he didn't see her.
Perhaps, this is destiny.
This is fate.
It seems that there is nothing wrong with it.
Jing Li continued to walk towards the main road with Xi Xi in her arms. After walking about a thousand meters, she finally came to the main intersection and got into a car.
The car started slowly and headed in the direction she wanted to go.
The direction farther away from the Huo family.
…
When Huo Qiran parked the car in a hurry and entered the house, Mu Qian was still sitting on the sofa making a phone call.
Huo Qiran walked in and asked, "Mom, where is Jing Li?"
Mu Qian shrugged, "Let's go."
"So fast?" Huo Qiran was surprised.
"Yeah, it's like hiding something." Mu Qian leaned on the sofa, looked at her son, smiled slightly, and said, "I don't know what is so scary in our house. She was so scared that she didn't even want to stay a little longer.
.”
Huo Qiran was startled again, then walked slowly to the sofa, sat down, and said in a low voice: "It's probably me."
The call between Mu Qian and Lu Yuan was not interrupted. The phone was placed next to her, but she just looked at Huo Qiran with a straight face and asked curiously: "What? Didn't you and Su Su become good friends again? Jing Li's side
What's going on? Could it be that she also..."
"She also said that we can be good friends again." Huo Qiran said, "But now, she has started to avoid me."
After hearing this, Mu Qian sighed again and said: "Son, you are so kind to others, it's hard for girls not to be tempted, okay? If you don't mean that to others, don't be so nice to others."
"I did it because-" Huo Qiran frowned and did not say anything further.
Mu Qian went on directly, "Because you think she might be the girl who was nice to you in high school, so you can't help but want to be nice to her, right?"
Huo Qiran neither admitted nor denied.
"But son, as a human being, sometimes you don't need to be so comprehensive. Sometimes you don't have to think about who treats you better, you should treat them better, let alone think about repaying others, because some are good, but they don't need to be
In return. In fact, you only need to think clearly about whom you want to be good to. It is enough to understand this."
