Chapter 13 Li Zong's deadpan sarcasm

Back to city A, it was already morning.

Li Tao drove the Bentley sent by the company directly back to the company as a matter of course.

Zhou Xiaosu got off the bus.

On the other side, Li Zong took Ruan Bai's suitcase out of the car and said at the same time: "I'll take you home to rest first. You have a good sleep. I'll find you again at night."

Ruan Bai nodded.

Pushing a suitcase, the two said goodbye to Zhou Xiaosu and Li Tao, then walked to the roadside and called a taxi.

Li Zong thought, he would buy a car tomorrow.

Not having a car is too inconvenient.

Ruan Bai was sleepy and tired. He slept in the car for more than two hours last night, but he always felt uncomfortable sleeping in the car.

Before the taxi arrived, Li Zong's cell phone rang.

"I'll take a call." Li Zong took the phone, said to Ruan Bai, and pressed the answer button.

Ruan Bai looked at him and saw that he frowned, said "hmm" to the person on the other end of the phone a few times, and then said: "Okay, I'll be there soon."

"What's the matter?" Ruan Bai asked after seeing him hang up.

"Well, the leader of our group said that we need to gather together in the morning to hold a meeting and discuss the next step while the iron is hot." After Li Zong finished speaking with a headache, he saw an empty taxi approaching.

Ruan Bai looked at the taxi and took the suitcase he was pushing. "Go and do your work quickly. I can go back by myself."

Li Zong felt very guilty. As a boyfriend, it was his duty to send his girlfriend home after a hard-working business trip, but he couldn't do it because of work.

Ruan Bai got into a taxi.

The taxi was driving slowly.

Ruan Bai almost fell asleep in a daze.

After an unknown amount of time, the driver said to Ruan Bai in the back seat of the car, "We're here."

Ruan Bai opened his eyes and saw the community where he lived.

She cheered up and got out of the car.

The cold made her very uncomfortable.

In the more than five years since she left City A to go abroad, she has lived independently and has long been accustomed to getting through things on her own. Fever and colds can only be regarded as a trivial matter for her.

But no matter how strong she is, she is still a girl.

Desire to be cared for.

But Li Zong didn't seem to notice that she was sick at all, which made her a little disappointed.

When he returned home where he had been away for two days and one night, Ruan Bai didn't want to do anything and lay down on the sofa tiredly.

I felt groggy, as if I had fallen asleep for a while, and when I woke up, my breath felt hot.

I stood up and went to find cold medicine and fever-reducing medicine.

Just as he picked up the cup to pour water, the doorbell rang.

Ruan Bai pressed the answer button and asked weakly: "Who?"

She rented this house, and no one knew it except Li Zong and Li Ni.

"Hello, Miss Ruan, I'm from the community hospital, and someone has called you for door-to-door injection service." The person who spoke was a girl, wearing a white coat and carrying a medicine box on her back.

Ruan Bai thought for a moment.

Was it Li Zong who called him?

It turned out that Li Zong noticed that she had a cold.

Perhaps it was due to illness and physical weakness. At this time, Ruan Bai was fragile and sensitive. Even a piece of ordinary cold medicine could make her feel moved and happy, let alone the door-to-door injection service.

After the dialysis injection, another delivery person came over.

Ruan Bai went to open the door with pain all over her body, only to find that this was not an ordinary takeaway, but a particularly sumptuous meal. She had only seen this kind of meal in idol dramas.

"Please sign." A man and a woman delivering food looked at Ruan Bai with complicated eyes.

Ruan Bai was embarrassed. She lived in an ordinary community and was an ordinary working-class worker from all aspects. She was really not worthy of such a luxurious meal.

After signing, the two delivery people left.

Facing the sumptuous meal, Ruan Bai was at a loss.

Li Zong was born in a well-off family and was not wealthy. She could accept spending a small amount of money to watch movies and eat in restaurants, but such extravagance gave her a headache.

All can be ordered.

Although she was sick and had no appetite, she still tried her best to eat a few more bites. This meal was mainly nutritious and light, like a sick meal specially prepared for patients.

After having lunch and cleaning up the house, Ruan Bai sent a WeChat message to Li Zong.

Just three words: "Thank you."

"Thank you for what?"

Li Zong replied.

Ruan Bai was stunned for a moment, and then thought that he might feel that saying thank you to a couple was too intrusive, so he typed back again: "I still have to say thank you."

It took a long time for Li Zong's message to come back, saying that she was "so emotional all of a sudden."

Ruan Bai knew that he was not suddenly emotional, but moved. His father's love was deprived by another mother and daughter, and his aunts and uncles, those relatives who had basically no contact with him, were nothing.

When it comes to loneliness, I'm afraid no one can compare to her.

Now the only ones who can keep her warm are Li Zong and Li Ni.

Li Zong said in the morning that he would come to see her in the evening.

However, Li Zong called again in the afternoon and said that he had something to do and couldn't come over.

Ruan Bai looked at the three dishes and one soup she had prepared for Li Zong in the kitchen and said nothing.

Fastening the plastic wrap, she put the food in the refrigerator.

the next day.

In the morning Li Zong drove to pick up Ruan Bai.

When Ruan Bai got in the car, he started to speak with a thicker nasal sound due to a cold.

Li Zong looked at her: "You have a cold?"

Ruan Bai stopped to fasten his seat belt, then turned his head to look at Li Zong in the driver's seat.

"Caught a cold?" Li Zong reached out with concern and touched her forehead. It was very hot. Then he unbuckled his seat belt and said, "Wait for me. There is a pharmacy fifty meters away."

Ruan Bai looked at Li Zong who got out of the car to buy medicine.

This is obvious. From Li Zongfang's words, you can tell that he didn't know about her cold before now.

That community doctor service and sumptuous patient meal yesterday afternoon...

It can’t be Li Ni!

Li Ni was busy at work and was too busy to do anything. After returning to City A, she didn't even dare to talk to Li Ni for fear of disturbing Li Ni's drawing.

The mobile phone placed in the bag was buzzing and vibrating.

Ruan Bai took out his cell phone in a daze and looked at the number on the caller ID, but he didn't recognize it.

"Hello, who are you?" Ruan Bai's thoughts were slightly confused.

"Ms. Ruan, I have your gift, please sign for it. It seems you are not at home when you ring the doorbell," the male deliveryman said loudly.

"Gift?" Ruan Bai looked out the car window, "I'm at the gate of the community."

While answering the call, she unbuckled her seat belt, opened the door and got out of the car.

Two minutes later, a male deliveryman wearing a green vest came with a smile and gave Ruan Bai a bouquet of flowers. "Ms. Ruan, your flowers arrived by air this morning, please sign for them!"

"Who gave me this flower?" Ruan Bai was very serious and only cared about this question.

It must be clarified.

By air!

How much does that cost.

The deliveryman smiled and shook his head and said, "Sorry, the customer paid, we just deliver it."

A large bouquet of flowers was placed in soft white hands.

The deliveryman drove away.

Ruan Bai stood there without moving. The bouquet was beautiful and had a light fragrance, but she was really not in the mood to appreciate it.

"noob."

Li Zong's voice came from behind her, a little deep.

Ruan Bai turned around, and the beautiful flowers formed a sharp contrast with the dull expression on Li Zong's face.

"I...I don't know who sent this." Ruan Bai was afraid that Li Zong would misunderstand.

"You don't know?" Li Zong looked straight at Ruan Bai, the original panic in his eyes gradually turned into reproach to her. He said sarcastically, expressionlessly: "The flowers brought by air are so romantic and so big.

Handwriting!"
