Chapter 89

"Xiang Siling is not an official suspect now, but a well-known entrepreneur. If we want to find out about her past, it is definitely inappropriate to invite your classmates to come and formally question them. If Xiang Siling finds out, she can complain." Chen Pu said, "Why don't you treat them to a meal, and I... find an excuse to pay the bill. You can talk about the past in the name of a class reunion, which is a natural thing to do." After a pause, he muttered, "You like class reunions anyway."

Li Qingyao felt that Chen Pu, who had returned from Yunnan, had become mysterious and often said inexplicable things, in addition to the depression in his bones. You say he was being sarcastic, but he lowered his eyebrows and looked unimpressive; you say he really believed it, but even a fool could tell that he was not talking seriously.

In the past, Li Qingyao would have grabbed his ears and asked him what was wrong with him. But now, she was just a little angry and answered with a sweet smile: "How do you know? I love class reunions the most."

Chen Pu...

Chen Pu didn't want to talk.

Li Qingyao immediately contacted those classmates, and in order to appear natural, he also called two other more active male classmates in the class. Logically, Ma Junhong should also be called, as he knows a lot about the grade. But he is close to Luo Huaizheng, so in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Li Qingyao did not call him.

Li Qingyao had a good reputation back then, and her experience was like a legend, talked about by everyone, and she had disappeared for so long, and now she suddenly showed up to invite everyone, everyone was interested. Except for one classmate who didn't have time, everyone else agreed to come. It just so happened that tomorrow was Saturday, so they had a dinner party.

Chen Pu was about to drive the car back to the bureau when Li Qingyao's cell phone rang. She saw the caller ID and picked up the call immediately.

It was her father. Her father almost never called her during the day unless it was urgent.

"dad."

Chen Pu slowed down his car immediately.

"Do you have time today?" asked Father Li.

Li Qingyao glanced at his watch and said, "I'm not busy today. Go ahead."

"Your mother called just now. She fell down the stairs at the clinic and broke her bones. Xiao Luo is accompanying her to the hospital now. Go see her when you get off work. I'm still on a mission in Jiangcheng and probably won't be back until next week."

Li Qingyao was shocked: "How could he have broken his bones while walking down the stairs in the clinic? Is it serious? Is he okay?"

Father Li laughed. "Who knows how she did it? There are only about ten steps in total. Your mother has always been clumsy. She didn't fall hard. The X-ray just showed that her instep was fractured. She's fine. Don't worry. Go there when you have time."

After hanging up the phone, Li Qingyao immediately called his mother. Yuan Ling was accompanied by her apprentice Xiao Luo, who was taking X-rays in the hospital. She was quite embarrassed, probably because she felt it was embarrassing to break a bone at home, and she repeatedly asked Li Qingyao not to go.

"Only two metatarsal bones were broken. If I wasn't afraid of broken bones, I wouldn't have come to the hospital and would have put on a plaster cast myself," said Yuan Ling.

"You've already gone there, and you can't come back to get the plaster applied. It's inconvenient to do it yourself. Besides, you're a Chinese medicine doctor, and they're much more professional in Western medicine surgery than you."

"That's true."

After hanging up the phone, Li Qingyao asked Chen Pu for leave: "I don't have anything to do this afternoon, so I'll take half a day off and go back to the company to complete the leave procedures."

The car was so small that Chen Pu heard most of the conversation. He asked, "Is Aunt Yuan okay?"

Li Qingyao said, "It's okay. I'm fine. Just drop me off at the roadside ahead."

"Which hospital?"

"The Second Hospital."

"Let's go through the leave application procedures later. I'll take you there."

Li Qingyao was silent for a while, then asked, "Are you going to go up to see her? Or will you just go to the door as before?"

Chen Pu: "Let me think about it."

He really needs to think about it.

Originally, we hadn't seen each other for these years, and I really didn't know what to say to Li Jincheng's parents when I saw him. Perhaps, this is what people call "homesickness".

In fact, a few months ago, when he heard Ding Guoqiang say that Li Qingyao was going to join his second team, he had the same feeling.

Not very happy. Later, when she first came, he was cold and indifferent to her. It was not intentional, Chen Pu was never that kind of person, especially towards girls.

At that time, he just... didn't want to see her.

I don't want to face this girl who is related to Li Jincheng by blood and is like a real sister to him. I don't want to see her clear and calm eyes, just like Li Jincheng's.

He didn't know how to explain to her that he hadn't been able to find Li Jincheng in seven years. After all, he was useless. He also didn't want to tell her how hard he had tried to find her in the past seven years, and how many times he had been disappointed and frustrated. He didn't want to tell anyone a word of this.

But her surname was Li, what if she caught him and asked him? He would be really annoyed.

Fortunately... Li Qingyao didn't ask a single question, didn't mention a single word. Even though he didn't give her a good look at first, she still came to him shamelessly. As if naturally, the two of them got closer. It seemed that he wouldn't feel any pressure when talking about Li Jincheng again.

Sometimes Chen Pu even felt that no matter what he had done, what he had been thinking, and what had made him uncomfortable in the past few years, she could understand and sympathize with him without him having to say anything.

No, no, no, stop it! Chen Pu, you are flattering yourself again.

If she really knew what you were thinking, how could she cry for another man in front of you?
Chen Pu's breath suddenly became depressed again.

Now that Yuan Ling is injured, should he go or not?

It was fine in the past, during the New Year and other festivals, he never lacked gifts and thoughts. But now he was sitting next to Li Qingyao, and he heard that Aunt Yuan had a fracture, but he pretended not to know and didn't even enter the hospital. He was too heartless.

In fact, he also wanted to go see Aunt Yuan and the others.

Or maybe... He had a vague thought in his mind: Since when, meeting Father Li and Aunt Yuan was no longer as stressful for him as before.

When passing by a fruit store, Chen Pu pulled over and asked, "What kind of fruit does your mother like to eat? Help me pick some."

Li Qingyao raised his eyebrows: "My mother doesn't like to eat any fruit. She insists that fruit is either cold and damp or hot and damp. I ate all the fruits you gave me before."

Chen Pu paused as he was unbuckling his seat belt and said, "The person who gives the gift should just give the gift. He can only care who eats it. How about buying some fruits that are not so cold? Go in and choose first." Otherwise, in such a hurry, he would not know what to buy.

Li Qingyao followed him out of the car and said, "It's just a minor fracture. I'll thank you on her behalf. You don't have to buy anything. You... don't have to force yourself to see her."

Chen Pu was not willing to go empty-handed, so he walked in and asked the clerk what fruits were fresh in season. The clerk recommended expensive grapes and lychees. Chen Pu also took a box of imported cherries and asked Li Qingyao, "Are these okay?"

Li Qingyao: "No lychees."

Chen Pu was startled and blurted out: "You don't like to eat?"

Li Qingyao nodded seriously, "I hate it the most."

Chen Pu lowered his head and put the lychees back. The waiter laughed and said that his girlfriend didn't like it, so how about changing to imported oranges? But Chen Pu didn't listen at all. He felt that it was destined.

It turns out that she still doesn't like eating lychees.

Because Li Qingyao said Yuan Ling didn't like fruit, Chen Pu went to the nearby convenience store and bought two boxes of the most expensive pure milk. Li Qingyao saw him buying and buying, and didn't have the heart to say that my mother actually thinks milk is colder and won't touch it.

When the car stopped downstairs of the hospital, Li Qingyao looked at Chen Pu, who was carrying a lot of things, and said, "Have you thought about it? Are you really going up?"

Chen Pu nodded.

"But Chen Pu, my mother only had a minor fracture. She doesn't even need to be hospitalized. You're carrying so many things. It's too grand. It makes it seem like she's dying. Is that really appropriate?"

"……lead the way!"

I want to point out that I remember when I wrote about Qian Chengfeng, I should have written that he hid his live broadcast experience and rarely mentioned it to others, only saying that he was doing online business. This kind of live broadcast work without signing a labor contract and paying social security is like doing odd jobs. Later, Luo Hongmin also destroyed the data. It was easy to conceal it for a while.

So Qian Chengfeng is C, you know it, but the male and female protagonists don’t know it.
