Chapter 83 Superfluous Explanation
The sky has completely darkened, and all the bright street lights have been turned on. The streets are still very busy with pedestrians and traffic.
Chen Long had no intention of shopping and didn't want to go anywhere, so he walked straight back.
Just halfway back, I heard the phone in my pocket ringing several times. So I took it out and saw that it was a text message. I opened it and read:
Chen Long, you are a cold-blooded animal!
The text message was sent by Lu Tingting.
Chen Long looked at it, shook his head slightly, and smiled bitterly... Just as he was about to put his phone back into his pocket, another text message came:
Chen Long, you are not a man!
Chen Long looked at the text message and pondered for a while, then clicked on the text message to reply and wrote:
Yes, I am not a man, I am a cold-blooded animal. Lu Tingting, I'm sorry...
After writing it, he was about to click to send it, but stopped immediately.
Looking at the line of text on his phone, he hesitated for half a minute, and then remembered Old Shen's warning to him. So he decisively deleted all the text, shook his head slightly, and said to himself: "Forget it.
Come on, women are a nuisance, it’s better not to provoke her..."
So he held the phone tightly in his hand and walked back quickly.
Walking back to the area where he lived, he saw a woman standing in front of the door of the house from a distance. He took a closer look and saw that it was Wu Mei!
Chen Long hurried up and asked her from a distance: "Fifth sister, why are you coming to my place so late? Did you get off work so late?"
When she saw her brother come back and asked her, she replied: "Yes, I was asked to work overtime after get off work just now, and I have to get off work now. I just came to your place and thought you were not working the night shift. I was about to call you.
Call and you will come back..."
"I'm working the day shift today. I just had dinner and was out for a walk. What's the matter with you coming to see me?"
"It's nothing, I'm just very hungry and wanted to see what you have to eat here. I also wanted to see if your injuries are healed."
"My injuries are all healed."
Chen Long answered, having already opened the door, and said: "Come in quickly, there is still some food left, so you can make do with it. After you finish eating, hurry back to school."
"Yeah." Fifth Sister agreed and followed her into the house.
Chen Long took out the leftover food he had just eaten, heated it in a pot again, and placed it on the table for Fifth Sister to eat.
Wu Mei washed her hands and sat down, looking at the still sumptuous meal, and asked a little puzzled: "Brother, why did you cook so much food by yourself? Are these really leftovers from you, or are they?
You haven’t eaten yet?”
"I said I've already eaten, so don't ask. Just finish eating and go back to school. You haven't really graduated yet. Do you still have to go to class or do homework in the evening?"
Chen Long didn't want to tell her the real thing, let alone delay her studies and affect her graduation. In his eyes, his sister was just a child, and he didn't want her to get involved in adult matters.
Fifth sister sensed that her brother was not in a good mood, so she didn't dare to ask him any more questions. She quickly picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started eating...
Chen Long then packed up the items in the house.
Soon, the hungry fifth sister cleaned up all the leftover food!
Then he immediately cleaned all the dishes and put them neatly. Then he said to his brother who was still cleaning up:
"Brother, when manager Li Feng came to see me this morning, I told her about Tingting and Binbin studying. I asked her to ask if there were any kindergartens and primary schools nearby, and she told me that our company community is in close proximity to the surrounding areas.
There is a kindergarten and primary school co-located in the real estate community. Later when I went to work, I also asked the doctor who took me and the people who came to see me, and it was confirmed that there is a kindergarten and primary school nearby. What I mean is that you have now come to work here in the provincial capital.
And Tingting and Binbin are not young either, they are at the age to enter kindergarten and primary school. If possible, brother, can you go back and pick these two children up to study here?"
After hearing what Fifth Sister said, Chen Long immediately realized that Li Feng had told him about his children's study. It turned out that it was his younger sister who had brought it up first! He didn't expect that his younger sister was more forward-thinking and thoughtful than him...
When the fifth sister saw that her brother did not respond to her, she continued: "My second brother Chen Gang and I have already discussed that in a few days, when he and I have graduated and have formal jobs and incomes, we can rent a better house to live in."
.So he brought his mother to the provincial capital, sent her to a good hospital for treatment, and let her see the high-rise buildings in the provincial capital with her own eyes..."
They are all sensible people, and they are all filial children. Chen Long has already thought in his heart that his current situation and ability...are really more than enough!
Hearing what his sister said, Chen Long suppressed the helplessness in his heart and responded: "Fifth sister, I understand. You and Chen Gang don't need to think too much about these things now. You should work hard on your internship first, and wait until you graduate smoothly.
Let’s talk about it after work. Sometimes, if you think too much and plan too much, you may not be able to realize it. If the plan can’t keep up with the changes, it’s better to take it one step at a time. Now that you’ve had a full meal, go back to school immediately. It’s getting late.
!”
Chen Long said, walked over, picked up the bag of fruit left by Li Feng, handed it to Fifth Sister, and said: "You can take this bag of fruit back to school to eat. I have already thought about it. When I finish this month
, I will go home to visit my mother as soon as I receive my salary, and plan the studies for my two children. My eldest sister and I are taking care of the family affairs, so you don’t need to worry about it with Chen Gang..."
Looking at her brother's kind eyes and listening to his caring words, Wu Mei said nothing more. She walked to the table with the fruit in her hand, divided half of it out of the bag, and said, "I'll take half, and you'll keep the other half."
Eat."
After the fifth sister finished speaking, she walked out carrying half a bag of fruit.
"be careful on the road."
Chen Long warned and watched his sister walk out of the house...
After the fifth sister left, Chen Long sat down at the table with fruits. He touched the fruits and was dazed for a while. Then he took out his mobile phone from his pocket and dialed Li Feng's number.
The phone rang a few times before being answered. Chen Long wanted to say hello first, but he didn't know what to say, so he opened his mouth for a long time and still couldn't say a single word.
On the other end of the phone, Li Feng had put the phone close to her ear, but she was holding her breath, wanting to hear what Chen Long would say to her first...
Just like this, the two people put their mobile phones close to their ears, but there was no sound...
After waiting for almost a minute, Li Feng became a little anxious, so she asked: "Chen Long, what's the matter with you? Why didn't you say anything after dialing the phone?"
Hearing Li Feng's seemingly unhappy question, Chen Long felt as if he had been stabbed by a knife. He was so panicked that his mind went blank, and he quickly responded: "I, I, I am Chen Long..."
"I know you are Chen Long. Isn't your answer redundant? Tell me, call me. What's the matter with you?"
"Yes, yes..."
Chen Long quickly forced himself to calm down, swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, adjusted his thinking, and then replied: "...I want to explain to you that Lu Tingting came to my room tonight on her own. She even
Without even calling me, she suddenly bought food and came to my place to cook for her. She said that the food I cooked was delicious...and then what you saw when you came in was not what you imagined...it was true.
, please believe me, don’t misunderstand..."
"Chen Long, if you still want to explain this matter to me on the phone, then please stop talking!" Li Feng interrupted him, "Didn't I tell you? I don't want to talk about your affairs.
Listen, do whatever you want! However, my sudden intrusion did disturb you, and I would like to apologize to you again."
"Li Feng, can you stop saying that? It makes me feel even more uncomfortable when you say that..."
"Okay, Chen Long, please stop talking about this. If you keep talking, I will hang up the phone. If you still want to say something, just say something else." Li Feng warned him.
"Okay, then I won't talk about this matter. Well, that Lu Tingting wants you to help arrange work, see if you can..."
As soon as he heard what Chen Long said, Li Feng immediately interrupted him: "Chen Long, why are you so stubborn? Didn't I give you a very clear answer tonight? Do you really not understand?
Don’t you understand what I mean?”
"You mean..." Chen Long was forced by Ting Meng.
"Well, since you don't understand, I will tell you directly now." Li Feng seemed a little anxious, "Because I really don't want you to be with that woman! What I told you before
I don’t know if you don’t understand or can’t hear, but don’t you think that woman wants to cling to you and take advantage of you? Have you never met a woman, or are you unable to understand a woman’s words, deeds, and intentions?
I can tell you with certainty that if you hang out with such a woman, you will regret it sooner or later!"
"...Well, Li Feng, I very much agree with what you said. But...those are all Lu Tingting's wishful thinking towards me. Really, I have no interest in her at all."
Hearing Chen Long's answer, Li Feng suddenly felt great comfort in her heart, so she said in a slightly gentle tone: "Oh, in that case, then just reject her directly and avoid her from a distance! By the way,
Chen Long, let me tell you by the way, regarding your heroic act of catching thieves, I helped you apply for a bonus today and reward you with 3,000 yuan. I estimate that you will receive it when you go to work tomorrow morning."
"Ah, reward me so much?" Chen Long couldn't believe it when he heard it.
"It's only three thousand yuan, which is not much! If possible, I will help you apply for it later. Chen Long, I think so, you should go home and pick up your two children and come to the provincial capital here.
, arrange to study in a kindergarten and primary school nearby. The child has reached the age where he should go to school, so he cannot miss the opportunity to study. This is an important matter, and I hope you can pay attention to it."
Hearing that Li Feng's tone of voice had improved a lot, and that he was so concerned about his children's studies, Chen Long felt so grateful in his heart! But thinking about his current situation, he immediately sighed and replied: "Li Feng, I
Thank you very much for your concern and help for me and my children. It’s just my current situation... I have just been here to work for a few days... I am now stuck in the river and cannot protect myself. How can I bring my two children to the province?
Come here to the city..."
"Chen Long, I understand your current situation, but there are always ways. In fact, I have already thought of it for you. As long as you can work in our company safely and stably, I am very willing to help you and your children go to school.
The cost of studying does not cost much, I can definitely help you. The place you live in now can be free for you. If it is not enough, you can clean up the house next to it and make room for you and your children. Or, in the company
You can also rent a larger and better house in the community or nearby for you and your children to live in..."
Hearing what Li Feng said, Chen Long was so moved...Such words and such actions can only be expressed by close relatives!
"..."
Chen Long wanted to respond to her, but couldn't find any better words to respond to her. He just clutched the phone next to his ear and listened with his mouth half open...
Not hearing a response from Chen Long, Li Feng finally said: "Chen Long, I really hope that you can go to work with peace of mind and work hard every day in the future, and can stay and work in our company. I believe you will
If you have better performance, I believe the company will reuse you. I have been helping you these days, and I will continue to help you in the future... I know you may think it is incredible that I help you like this, and I really want to know.
What do I want? But let me tell you, even I can't tell myself why I want to help you like this. It all depends on my feeling for you. I always feel that there is a force pushing me to help you...
…I hope I didn’t help you wrong, and I hope one day I can unravel the reason why I helped you...Okay, what are I talking about? I won’t disturb you anymore, Chen Long, you can have a good rest. I’m hanging up
The phone has been disconnected."
Li Feng said and hurriedly hung up the phone...
