Although Huo Qiran said that the time was still long and he could plan slowly, for Jing Li, this was a topic that could not be ignored.
Now the two of them are separated. This can be solved by Huo Qiran flying every Monday, but what about the future? What if it is really time for her to return to NewYk? This relationship between two places can really be maintained forever.
?
Thinking of this, Jing Li called Gu Wan that night.
She has never told Gu Wan about the progress between her and Huo Qiran.
Although they now live together and raise Xi Xi together, they are not too close anyway. In addition, Xi Xi is still young, so Jing Li has not revealed anything to Xi Xi.
After hearing that she and Huo Qiran were together, Gu Wan was surprised, but also very happy for her.
"I originally thought you were going back just for work, but I didn't expect that you also gained a relationship. The key is this boy Huo Qiran..." Gu Wan said with emotion, "I remember him, he is a very good boy.
, I am also happy that you can be together."
"He asked me today, talking about the future..." Jing Li hesitated and said, "If we want to be together for a long time, then it is definitely not realistic to separate the two places like now..."
When she said this, Gu Wan on the other end of the phone understood what she meant.
She was silent for a moment and then said: "His family will definitely not let him leave, so you can only return to China, right?"
Jing Li paused and then continued: "He said that if you and Xi Xi come back, you will definitely be able to live a stable and peaceful life without any disturbance, and you will no longer have to worry about the Zhao family..."
"I understand." Gu Wan said, "I understand... But Jing Li, you also know that this is a very important decision. You also know that Xi Xi has had a hard time integrating into the life here. You know how much we have paid.
s hard work……"
"I know..." Jing Li said.
Nothing is more important than Xi Xi's life and future. This is true for Gu Wan, and it is also true for her.
"I don't mean anything else, but your relationship is still in its infancy after all. No one can tell what will happen in the future. It is unrealistic for us to make such decisions and changes at this stage, you understand.
Bar?"
"I understand..." Jing Li added, "I'm not saying we have to decide now, I just want to mention it to you first..."
Gu Wan was quiet for a few seconds and said, "I understand, let's make a decision later."
Naturally, this matter had to be decided slowly in the future, but after making this call, Jing Li felt a little heavier for no reason.
She and Stewart lived in the same small courtyard, but her mood did not affect Stewart at all. He even made an appointment with his new friend to go to a high-latitude city to escape the summer heat for two days!
Jing Li was speechless when she heard the news. When she was about to persuade him to spend some time doing business, Stewart waved his hand and gave her two days off.
Jing Li blinked and accepted it happily.
So at the same time that Stewart and his friends flew to the north, Jingli flew to the south.
Returning to Tongcheng again, she was excited and nervous because she wanted to surprise Huo Qiran, so she didn't notify him in advance.
When it was estimated that Huo Qiran would be getting off work, Jing Li sent him a photo of the street view outside the hotel window.
Huo Qiran's message came back quickly: "Where is this?"
Jing Li was about to reply to him when Huo Qiran's video call came directly.
Jing Li quickly picked up the call, but found that Huo Qiran was not at the company or home, nor driving, but in a place that looked like a restaurant.
"Are you having a dinner party?"
"Are you going out?"
The two people asked each other at the same time.
Huo Qiran choked for some reason, so Jing Li answered him first: "Yeah, I'm going out. Stewart made an appointment with someone to go to the north to escape the summer heat, so I went out too..."
Huo Qiran said "Oh" and was about to say something when a female voice came from behind: "I'm ready, let's go..."
At the same time, Jing Li clearly saw the figure of a girl wearing a close-fitting skirt flashing across the screen of his mobile phone.
Jing Li was frozen there for a moment, not knowing what to say.
On the other side of the screen, Huo Qiran stood up quickly, "Sorry, I'm on a video call with my girlfriend, so I can't go with you -"
Before he finished speaking, the girl burst out laughing and said, "Stop teasing me, stop finding any excuse to tease me, and give me a girlfriend? Where is my girlfriend? Show me?"
The next moment, Jing Li came face to face with a girl who was smiling so brightly.
The two people looked at each other on the screen, with complicated expressions on their faces.
The girl then looked at Huo Qiran in shock, "Do you really have a girlfriend? What's wrong with you? You have a girlfriend and you still go out on a blind date?"
After saying that, the girl turned around, picked up her bag, and left cursing.
Huo Qiran quickly turned over his phone and saw Jing Li's more complicated eyes on the screen.
"You...are you on a blind date?" Jing Li asked with some difficulty.
"Don't listen to her nonsense!" Huo Qiran said hurriedly, "Why am I going on a date? I went out to eat with my mother, and happened to meet her mother and her. Her mother and my mother were acquaintances, so we sat together. After dinner
My mother had to leave temporarily because of something. I was also leaving, but she suddenly said she had some academic questions to ask me. Her mother also said she was going to find a friend and asked me to help her daughter, so I sat down again.
For a moment... I don't know why she thought it was a blind date, I don't have any knowledge or intention in this regard."
He explained a lot, and Jingli listened quietly and just said "oh".
"Don't you believe me?" Huo Qiran asked again.
Jing Li shook her lips slightly and turned to look to the side.
Just when she turned her head, Huo Qiran suddenly saw a painting behind her.
What was painted on that painting was clearly a famous mountain scene in Tongcheng——
"Where are you?" Huo Qiran couldn't help but ask again.
After a while, Jing Li finally said reluctantly: "It's a hotel."
"Where is the hotel?" Huo Qiran continued to ask.
"I don't know." He asked a little anxiously, and Jing Li suddenly got angry, "I'm going to take a bath and rest, so I won't tell you anymore. You are very busy, just do your own thing."
After saying that, she hung up the video directly.
Huo Qiran quickly called again. Jing Li took a look at it, and after a moment of hesitation, she threw the phone aside and walked into the bathroom.
She took a long bath and washed her hair. When she finally came out of the bathroom, she couldn't help but immediately walked to the bed and picked up her phone.
Except for two missed calls from him, there were no words on the phone.
Jing Li couldn't help but frown slightly.
Did she go too far? Did he think she was being unreasonable, so after two phone calls, he refused to call her again?
Thinking this, she couldn't help but sit down on the bed in frustration.
At this moment, the doorbell suddenly rang.
Jing Li stood up and walked to the door unconsciously. She was so distracted that she even forgot to look at the peephole and opened the door directly.
The moment the door opened, Huo Qiran stood outside the door and looked at her.
"You're staying in a hotel, and someone knocks on the door, and you just open the door so casually?"
