MTL - Endless Fall-Chapter 10 Who cares about a dog

   Chapter 10 Who cares about a dog

  When Lin Jiao woke up, the warm sun refracted in from the window and sprinkled on the dust particles suspended in the room, like a dream.

   She sat up with her weak body, reaching for the glass on the bedside table.

  Slightly cool white water trickled down her throat, alleviating the uncomfortable dryness and clearing up her chaotic thoughts in the next instant.

   "Buzz-buzz-"

   A sudden vibration came to his ears, Lin Jiao glanced at the caller, hesitantly pressed down to connect.

   She asked in a cold tone: "Is something wrong?"

   "Sister Jiao, are you free this afternoon?" Song Zhen had a good attitude: "Brother Quan wants to transfer a shop to you, you have to come and sign."

"No time."

   "Then I'll send it to you?"

  Lin Jiao has never seen such a rush to give alms: "I made it very clear to Gu Quan that I will never want his things."

   "You swiped his card before, didn't you have a good time swiping it? Why are you pretending to be high-level now?"

   "He Qi, what are you doing?"

   A murmur sounded, and Song Zhen, who grabbed the phone back, quickly apologized: "Sister Jiao, don't know him in the same way."

  Lin Jiao said calmly, "You think too much, who would care about a barking dog?"

   She is not stupid, since she has put aside her relationship with Gu Quan, why should she care about other people's opinions?

  Song Zhen couldn't help He Qi to speak without being reasonable, so he had to hold the phone and walk away.

   He brought the topic back to the beginning: "Sister Jiao, Brother Quan doesn't mean anything else, I just hope you have a good life."

   "It doesn't matter if I'm doing well or not."

  Lin Jiao's throat was still sore, and she was in no mood to talk to him: "Tell him and tell him not to bother me again."

   "...Okay." When she said this, Song Zhen was too embarrassed to persuade him any more.

   As soon as the call ended, Lin Jiao blacklisted all the numbers of Gu Quan and his friends.

   She opened WeChat and was about to clear the list when an unread message came into view.

   Pei Zhi: [Are you awake? ]

  Lin Jiao stared at the screen for a long time, trying to recall what happened last night, but the memory remained at the moment he saw Pei Zhi.

   She responded with two messages one after another: [Wake up. ]

  [Uncle, did you send me home last night? ]

   In order to avoid missing her news, Pei Zhi put WeChat on the computer when she was at work early in the morning.

   He opened the dialog box and tapped the keyboard: [Well, are you uncomfortable? ]

  [The throat is a little uncomfortable. ]

  [The kettle is on the bedside table on your right, you drink more water and don't go out if you are okay. ]

  Lin Jiao turned her head and opened the lid of the kettle.

   Seeing that it was full of water, he couldn't help but sighed at his carefulness: [Thank you, uncle. cute.jpg]

   Pei Zhi saw this expression and laughed softly: [You're welcome. ] He picked up his mobile phone and clicked on the app.

   After talking here, Lin Jiao didn't know what to say.

   She pressed the switch to boil the water, leaned lazily on the head of the bed, and sent him another emoji.

   Pei Zhi also turned over the collection: [touch head.jpg]

  [I ordered takeout for you, which will be there in a moment. ]

   This news made Lin Jiao flattered, but her focus was on the cute 'touching her head'.

   She quietly clicked on Favorites, and then asked him: [Uncle, have you eaten? ]

[ate. ] Pei Zhi thought that she hadn't washed yet, so he took the lead in ending the topic: [I'm busy, you have a good rest. ]

  [received.jpg]

  Lin Jiao returns to the main page.

   She deleted the WeChat messages of more than ten people, and then found all the bank cards that Gu Quan had given, and called a courier to pick them up.

   Without hesitation or nostalgia, she resolutely abandoned everything with him as if she was dealing with an expired food.

  *

   "I think Lin Jiao is really floating!" There was a bang in the private room of Yunyuan Restaurant.

  He Qi, who dropped his phone, didn't even swallow his anger: "Song Zhen, give her another call."

"is it necessary?"

   "Why is it unnecessary? She scolds me!"

  Song Zhen sighed silently, always feeling like a child who didn't grow up, too impulsive.

   He reasoned: "You satirized her first."

   "Is it also called satire to tell the truth?"

   "Even if she spends Brother Quan's money, the money is given freely by Brother Quan, we can't say."

  He Qi was choked.

   "I don't like her anyway!" He took a sip of tea and began to look through old accounts: "I haven't told her about the last time I was in the restaurant."

   "Do you still want to call back?"

   "Don't fight, but always teach her a lesson."

  Song Zhen patted him on the shoulder: "She is Brother Quan's ex-girlfriend anyway, don't make too much trouble."

   "Brother Quan doesn't care."

   "He always wants face, right? His brother taught his ex-girlfriend a lesson, what do you want others to think of him?"

  He Qi didn't speak, he used silence to reveal the matter, but other thoughts bred in his heart.

   "Knock-knock-" Su Tian, ​​who was standing at the door, when they finished talking, Qu Zhi knocked on the door twice.

   She walked to the table with two bags, and greeted them familiarly as before.

   "Where's Brother Quan?"

   "He met two partners, chatting next door, come over later."

   "Yes." Song Zhen responded.

   When he and Su Tian were in high school, their relationship was very ordinary, and they had nothing in common.

   It was He Qi next to him, as if he had turned on the chattering mode, he couldn't stop.

   "I just heard you talk about Lin Jiao." Su Tian asked as usual, "What's wrong with her?"

   "It's nothing."

   "What? You can't even tell me?"

   "No." He Qi didn't notice the look in Song Zhen's hand, and told the truth without thinking.

  Song Zhen has obeyed him.

   He was afraid that Su Tian would be upset because of the shop, so he had to say, "Brother Quan feels sorry for her, nothing else."

   The day Su Tian planned to return to China, he asked He Qi what happened in the past few years, and he naturally knew that Gu Quan had no feelings for Lin Jiao.

   However, after Lin Jiao had occupied her man for so long, she was still somewhat uncomfortable.

   "I know." Su Tian slammed the teacup: "In the end, it's all our fault, and we must compensate her."

   "What does it have to do with you?"

   "If I had known earlier, I could have persuaded him, and it wouldn't have developed like this."

   "Su Tian, ​​it's not your fault." He Qi looked at her with pity, but couldn't hold her in his arms, so he could only comfort her verbally.

  Su Tian shook his head: "I will bear Gu Quan's mistakes together with him, after all, he is for me."

   "Anyway, that shrew doesn't want any compensation. You don't care about her, just have a good life."

   "If she doesn't want it, we can't help it either."

  He Qi knows how kind she is.

   That's exactly the case, even if he didn't want to, he had to follow her will: "What do you want to do?"

   "Give me her number." Su Tian opened the screen of her phone and handed it to him: "I'll find time to chat with her."

   He Qi couldn't refuse her.

   He repeatedly warned: "You can just chat with her on the phone, it's better not to meet."

"why?"

   "I'm afraid she will be bad for you."

   "Hmm." Su Tian lowered his eyes, and when he saved the string of numbers, a dark color flashed in his eyes.

   It is unclear who is against whom.
