Chapter 269 (1/2)
”Young lady, wake up?” Li Qing's lazy words sounded outside the door: ”see the clothes by the bed? Change your clothes first, and then I'll take you downstairs for dinner.”
”I see.” Lin Mengdie answered, then changed her clothes, walked over and opened the door.
When Li Qing saw Lin Mengdie appear by the door, he was obviously stunned: ”can you walk?”
”Well, I'm fine,” said Lin Mengdie faintly.
After a moment of silence, Lin Mengdie said again, ”you can go back to Lin Qiuqiu.”
After looking up and down at Lin Mengdie, Li Qing shook his head: ”not yet. I'm still worried about you like this. Wait another two days. OK, if you don't say this, go downstairs for dinner.”
Since Lin Mengdie could walk by herself, Li Qing didn't hold her anymore and helped her all the way downstairs.
”The porridge sent in the morning has been cold, and I've warmed up.” Li Qing helped Lin Mengdie to the table and sat down, and then set the dishes and chopsticks.
He scooped the lotus seed porridge in the bowl with a wooden spoon and gently sent it to his small mouth. Lin Mengdie looked up at Li Qing and asked softly, ”do you want to know why Lin Yuan came to me yesterday?”
”Hmm? Does it have anything to do with me?”
Lin Mengdie put the porridge bowl on the table and slowly slid her eyes along the edge of the table: ”did you put Lin Hai?”
Li Qing's body stagnated slightly, lifted her eyelids and looked at Lin Mengdie with a smile: ”Miss, I really underestimated you. The news is very smart.”
”Don't be sarcastic. I don't want to quarrel with you.” Lin Mengdie pursed her mouth: ”grandpa told me that the whole Lin family, except Lin Hai himself, is estimated to be known by the two of us. The others are guessing that Lin Qiuqiu has Lin Hai.”
Li Qing raised his eyebrows slightly: ”didn't you tell Lin Yuan?”
”No.”
Leaning on the table with his arm, Li Qing held his chin in one hand: ”what do you want to tell me?”
Lin Mengdie hesitated and said, ”Lin Hai will return to the Lin family today. The first thing he wants to find is Lin Qiuqiu.”
”Hmm?” Li Qing noticed something wrong and pondered for a long time before asking, ”have you done anything? Otherwise, even if Lin Hai is a fool, he knows that he should wait for the decision of the master at this time, rather than find Qiuqiu to offend master Lin at this time.”
”No comment.” Lin Mengdie said faintly, picked up the atherosclerotic bowl and continued to sip porridge. It seems calm on the surface, but at the moment, her heart has long been tangled, just because she knows that telling Li Qing the news undoubtedly represents a betrayal of her own brother.
But even so, Lin Mengdie couldn't help saying it.
After a long silence, Li Qingcai nodded: ”thank you. I'll have a look after dinner.”
After drinking the porridge, Lin Mengdie put the porridge bowl back on the table and wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin. Then she said coldly, ”you don't have to come back.”
”Why?” Li Qing stared at Lin Mengdie with puzzled face.
”I've been used to my life for more than ten years, and I don't want to make it beyond recognition.” Lin Mengdie said, got up and left. Li Qing watched her struggling upstairs, speechless for a long time.
”Stubborn woman.” put down the bowl, Li Qing quickly cleaned up the tableware, and then got up and left the villa.
Standing on the bamboo path outside the villa, Li Qing looked up, waved to the second floor window and grinned.
Lin Mengdie's bedroom is still covered with curtains. Li Qing can't see the situation inside, but he knows that the woman is watching herself inside at the moment.
After finishing these, Li Qing turned around and hurried to find Lin Qiuqiu.
Seeing Li Qing's back disappear at the end of the road, Lin Mengdie hides behind the window, gently bites her lips, and holds the curtain tightly with her jade hand. What kind of feeling is this? Even she can't say it clearly.
This man is a passer-by in her life. After rippling, he turned away like a dragonfly.
At least at this moment, Lin Mengdie thinks so.
After bathing and dressing, Lin Mengdie stepped into the attic, knelt gently on the futon, faced the Buddha statue on the altar, and sighed gently. Is she destined to be with the ancient Buddha in this life?
Chanting scriptures countless times, but it is difficult to solve the troubles in my heart. My thoughts always drift to someone inadvertently. The insight in the past is smart, and I don't seem to be enlightened today.
Li Qing hurried to Lin Qiuqiu's residence, then pushed the door and went in.
Only the maid was cleaning the room, but Lin Qiuqiu disappeared.
”Where's autumn?” Li Qing asked coldly.
The maid raised her head and looked at Li Qing with some doubts: ”who are you?”
”I ask you about Lin Qiuqiu!” Li Qing increased her volume, and a sense of impatience appeared in her words.
