Many feelings just happen naturally. She watched him holding his suitcase, his grip tightening with every passing moment, the veins on his small arms faintly visible as he struggled. 。
Chen Ning’s attitude at this moment was very clear. As long as he was willing to take a step towards her, she was willing to go all out for him, whether it was life or death, with all her heart and soul. 。Just as his hand finally released the suitcase and he was about to walk toward her in the center of the room, his phone rang abruptly. In the quiet room, the sound was especially jarring, shattering the suddenly heightened intimacy. 。He stopped and took it. 。Chen Ling didn’t know what state of mind he was in at this moment, but she seemed to see a look of relief on his face the instant he answered the phone. 。She once said that you can’t jump into the same hole twice. The first time was his drunken impulse, and also her whim. 。She always said the “hole” she talked about wasn’t referring to intimacy being a bad thing, but rather that she wanted it to be based on pure physical attraction between two people. It shouldn’t be a trap; whether there was a result or not, it would be a mutual and enjoyable experience. 。After hanging up the phone, Song Jingye’s brow furrowed slightly as he said, “I’ll be there right away.” 。He hung up the phone and strode towards her, giving her a hug: “Get some rest.” 。After letting her go, he turned and strode away. 。
Chen Ning recalled that there was an urgent matter at the unit looking for him. Without thinking much, he went to take a shower and go to sleep. 。The past two months of life abroad, now back, my mind and body are at ease. Holding onto the lingering enchantment from just now, I quickly drifted into a sweet dream. Even my dreams were sweet. 。Song Jingye sped to the hospital late at night. The call he just received was from home. His phone had been switched off before, so his family couldn’t get in touch with him. 。His mother, worried about him, was absentminded and fell while going to the bathroom at night, breaking her lower leg. She just returned to the ward after surgery. 。At this time, only his father and nanny were with him in the hospital ward. 。He was fortunate that although his father was usually rigid and stern in public, he was very attentive to his mother when caring for her. With his status, the doctors and nurses were all diligent and the ward was well-ordered. 。When his mother saw him come in, tears welled up in her eyes before she could even speak. She was overcome with emotion and reached out to pat him as he walked toward the bed. 。But his hand reached out, only to fall back into the air, unable to truly strike. He cried for a while before finally stopping. 。Song Jingye pulled out two tissues from the side and helped her wipe away her tears. “Our Ms. Song, you’ve worked hard.” 。“Women love to cry. I just comforted one at the airport, and now I have to comfort another.” 。Seeing her foot wrapped in a bandage, this was probably the biggest hardship in his mother’s otherwise smooth life. He also blamed himself, admitted his mistake and said: “From now on, no matter where I go, I will always inform my family in advance.” 。He had gotten used to being alone since his days at the military academy. Even when he went on missions, he often went off the grid. It was impossible for him to report everything that happened at work to his family. 。
Song’s mother was suffering from leg pain, but she was also angry: “Was there any advance notice for this? You shouldn’t have gone to such a chaotic country. I saw those scenes of fighting on the news and my heart skipped a beat.” 。It’s good that you’re back safe. If anything had happened to you, I wouldn’t know how to live. 。”Song Jingye and his father understood each other very well. She could scold them as she pleased. Being a military wife was not easy, she knew it when she married into this family, and she had persevered for so many years. Now that she was getting older, a few nagging words were all it took.” 。”Don’t worry,
everything will be fine.” 。If there’s any more danger, you are not allowed to rush forward for me. 。。 。”If I don’t leave, my mother won’t go to sleep. Looking at her like this, she seems to have a lot more to say, so he said: “I’ll come see you tomorrow.” 。He didn’t leave the hospital because it was almost dawn, so he just sat in the corridor outside. 。This body is as tough as iron, able to withstand even a day and night without sleep. 。Chen Ling slept until the afternoon of the next day at the hotel, unlike him. Since she had just returned and didn’t have any work arrangements for the time being, she just went to the department in the afternoon to check in. 。She glanced at her phone and saw only one message from Xu Haichen, asking what time she would arrive in the afternoon. She replied at two o’clock. 。
After replying, he hurried up to wash. 。The hotel had no vacancies, and the apartment wouldn’t be available for a while. 。After arriving at the unit, the main thing is to report to the department leaders about the work situation in X country. 。The leader is very satisfied: “Hard work, Zhang Zan came over this morning and praised your work highly. Continue to work hard.” 。”
Thank you, leader” 。After the leader arranged her next tasks, he returned to his position. Tao Kaiyan was still sitting beside him. He greeted her with a welcome back and then turned to busy himself with his own work. 。The computer she used before leaving was still there, everything remained unchanged, but it seemed that everything had changed. Her work was no longer limited to translation. Some were specially assigned to her by Teacher Zhang, it was very obvious that he wanted to reuse her 。After finishing everything, I contacted Song Jingye and only then did I learn that his mother had broken her leg and was hospitalized. 。She quickly said, “I’ll go see my aunt.” 。If you really want to get down to it, she has a hand in this too. 。I bought flowers and fruit. By the time I got there, it was already evening. When I found the ward and wanted to knock on the door, I heard a conversation inside that seemed to mention her name, so she hesitated for a moment. 。In the ward, only Song Jingye and the nurse were accompanying him. His mother, seizing the opportunity today, finished what she hadn’t said last night. 。Song Jingye’s mom’s nagging went in one ear and out the other. He was often away from home, rarely spending time with her, so it wasn’t a matter of principle, he just let her talk. 。Song’s mother wasn’t a domineering or unreasonable mother. She just said: “I really like Xiaoning. She is beautiful and has a strong presence. She is kind, hardworking, and does well in her job.” 。At the time, I thought she would just go on a business trip in the translation department, no need to be stationed there permanently. But given the current situation, she will have to leave again in a couple of years. You two really aren’t compatible, time waits for no one. 。”
Song Jingye: “It’s pointless to talk about this now” 。”So I regret it too, at Zheng Ke’s wedding. I shouldn’t have been so impulsive.” 。Mom knows these words shouldn’t be said, but you young people, your thoughts don’t have to be so conservative. It’s not like sleeping once means being responsible for a lifetime. 。”Previously, who said I should be responsible?” Song Jingye retorted.
Song’s mother: “The situation is different now.” 。And you’ve also been very dedicated to Xiaoning. You’ve always supported her financially, and this time you even went to country X despite the danger for her sake. You’ve fulfilled your responsibilities. 。There’s no need to gamble your whole life away. 。”
Song Jingye:
What I gave her wasn’t even real assistance. She hasn’t spent a penny of mine since she started university. ” 。“You’re such a stubborn person. You used to be so set on marrying Miss Lu, and now you’re stubbornly trying to take responsibility for things.” 。
