Part Three, Chapter 84: Mutual Understanding 11

d browsed online shopping.Going back to the city, she hadn't expected ShuShu to have children, so she didn't buy any gifts for the kids. Then she was busy renovating ShuShu's place and ignored the kid...Chen Ling opened it and saw: "Great love knows no bounds, benevolence endures forever."This was too much praise, she felt unworthy, and didn't know what to say. She could only blush and accept it, wanting to quickly roll it up and not let her colleagues see her embarrassment. 。The old woman said: "I originally wanted to come to your unit to deliver it, but you have strict security measures in place, making it inconvenient to enter." 。"Chen Ling replied: "Thank you, I received your kind thoughts." 。It's fine that it can't get in. 。"My daughter and son-in-law both work at the court. If you ever need help with anything in the future, just let us know." 。"Mom, that place of ours isn't very good. Let's just be friends and keep our work separate from our personal lives in the future." 。"Yes, you see what I'm saying " 。Finally, the old lady said enthusiastically, "Let's take a picture together! I won't disturb your work." 。"Chen Ling could only put the rolled-up banner back down and stand in the middle to take a photo with them, feeling a bit like she was being forced to work." 。Although I'm not one to boast, when someone acknowledges my work and shows me respect, a surge of pride washes over me. After sending them off, I returned to the office and carefully tucked the banner into a drawer. 。My phone buzzed with a photo we took earlier. She's in the middle holding a banner that says "Boundless Love, Virtue Endures" - eight big characters that are impossible to miss! I wouldn't dare show my colleagues but I couldn't wait to share it with Song Jingye, so I just forwarded it to him. 。He replied "Great" in the evening, just two simple words. 。“Has your uncle returned home” she asked. 。

"I'm back" 。Chen Ning sent a video request back, and the other side answered. He was actually taking a bath! The phone was probably just placed casually on a shelf, the angle happened to show his upper body and head. 。Steamy mist, water splashing everywhere, big droplets of water running down his defined chest and to his abdomen, Chen Ling's heart echoed with a startled squeak like a groundhog. Cheating!

He blushed furiously, but couldn't tear his gaze away, the lens fogging up from his heated stare until it was unclear what he was doing, only hearing him say: "Wait for me a moment, I'll be done washing soon" 。"Oh"

She replied, wishing she could just wipe the mist off his lens with her hand. 。The sound of water gurgling echoed, then after a while, the water sound ceased. The camera lens wiped away the mist, revealing his handsome face. A few strands of hair were wet and hung across his forehead, which he brushed aside carelessly. 。Every time he makes a video, the camera is right up close, almost touching his face. His skin isn't white, it's more of a wheatish color, but it's not rough at all. 。

Chen Ning thought of him so much at this moment, the more she looked, the more she wanted to. 。Song Jingye threw on a random shirt and dried his hair before realizing she wasn't at his place. "She's not here"

"Nope, living in the unit's housing now. Closer to work." 。He is not here, she herself does not want to return to his courtyard alone. 。A person should pay attention to safety. 。I know 。"Are the people giving you the banner the family of the child you saved before" 。Have the banners been hung up 。“Song Jingye smiled and asked” 。"Don't dare to hang it up, it's too ostentatious." 。"Please wait for me to get home and hang it up in the living room." 。Chen Ning smiled and replied, "Isn't the study a good place to hang it" 。I'll get you a whole wall when the time comes, you're so talented. You'll have lots more to hang up in the future. 。To be praised by him made her happier than receiving ten banners of honor. She just missed him so much, she longed for him deeply. 。I could ask him when he'll be back, but I don't dare. I'm afraid it would distract him. 。。known 。If she runs now, she'd choose some common routes, places with lots of runners. 。After hanging up the video, Chen Ling put away her workout clothes. She listened to him and decided to switch to morning runs from now on. 。In the days apart, besides having more thoughts and care for each other, everything else remains as usual. We work, live, and exercise our bodies in an orderly fashion. 。

Although she is still new to the company, she has performed exceptionally well and has become a key development target. 。After her internship in the translation department ended, new arrangements were made for her, transferring her to a different department. There, she was responsible for some basic consular work, such as keeping up with news from around the world and contacting colleagues in various countries. In case of any special circumstances, she could provide timely reminders and early warning information. She also handled communication for some international cases. Overall, it involved rotating through various roles, exposing her to all types of work, allowing her to gradually climb the ladder. It was a busy and fulfilling experience. 。After her morning run, she passed a breakfast stall and decided to buy something to take home. While waiting for her order, the corner of her eye caught a familiar face. Her pores stood on end, and despite sweating from her run, goosebumps erupted all over her back as if an icy chill had swept through her. When she focused her gaze again, the person was gone. 。<

"Miss, breakfast is ready" >> 。The boss carried breakfast to the door and handed it to her. 。"Oh, good" 。She took the breakfast, her hand trembling. 。After scanning and paying, when I looked back in the same direction, there was still no one there. However, the chill down my spine hadn't subsided at all. 。

It couldn't be a hallucination; she hadn't thought about the past in many years, and she barely even remembered what he looked like. 。

Hurrying home with breakfast, my heart was pounding so hard I could barely breathe. As soon as I closed the door, I locked it immediately and leaned against it. Looking at my familiar house brought me a little relief from the overwhelming fear that had seized me. 。Breakfast tasted bland, and I accidentally spilled the soy milk I bought all over the table. I then scrambled to clean it up. 。Then I took a shower and rushed to the office. I was short on time, but I deliberately avoided that breakfast shop. As a result, I was late for work for the first time, five minutes late. 。Coming face to face was Tao Kaiyan, she looked at him with a hint of surprise and asked: "Are you sick Your face is so pale" 。Chen Ling nodded: "A little unwell." 。After answering, he walked back to his place. 。I've tried several times to calm myself down, but that face keeps popping up in my mind. It's getting clearer and clearer, even grotesque, as if she's staring at me menacingly. I keep seeing it—the scene from that remote village where a man beats her with a wooden stick... 。Her heart sank like a drowning person. The computer on the new desk powered on, its screen's brightness pulling her back to reality. 。Actually, over the past few years, she really couldn't remember anything from before. Especially after going to university, as she traveled all over with the charity foundation to rescue people trapped in various situations, she met many who had suffered even more tragic experiences than her own. So she thought she had long let go of it. 。But when that face suddenly appeared before me, the shadow left by what I had experienced did not diminish in the slightest because of seeing similar encounters repeatedly. At a certain moment, it suddenly struck. 。She forced herself to calm down and start working, trying to digest that fear. She was no longer an 18-year-old girl, and she couldn't possibly experience those things again. 。ness, I'm only doing legitimate business now. That thing, I haven't touched it for a long time, so don't worry, the police won't find anything.""You'd best leave it alone, or no one will be able to sa...
