MTL - Endless Fall-Chapter 5 What is there for him to be delusional about
Chapter 5 What is he worth for my delusions
The sun is getting bigger and bigger as it approaches noon.
Lin Jiao raised her hand to cover the top of her forehead and slowly followed Pei Zhi into the car, but just a few steps away, the tip of her nose was sweating.
"Go to Lufu Bay?" When Pei Zhi's mellow voice came, a tissue was also printed in his eyes.
Lin Jiao shook her head and took the piece of paper.
She wiped the tip of her nose, opened the navigation and handed it to Qu Shao: "Gu Quan has ordered a restaurant, I want to meet him first."
"Hmm." Pei Zhi looked confused.
He leaned against the back of the back seat, his slender hands casually placed between his knees: "Do you need me to wait for you?"
"No need." Lin Jiao didn't want to waste his time: "Go home and have a good rest, I'll invite you to dinner another day."
"I'll be free tomorrow."
"what?"
"Didn't you mean to invite me to dinner?" Pei Zhi asked seriously, the smile in his eyes never concealed.
Lin Jiao paused: "Yes." She looked at his profile: "What would you like to eat? Chinese or Western?"
"It will be all right."
"Then I will send you a message when I see it?"
Pei Zhi readily responded.
Aware that he was in a good mood, Qu Shao, who was sitting in the driver's seat, deliberately slowed down the speed of the car.
He glanced at Pei Zhi from time to time through the rear-view mirror, and after waiting for a long time, he couldn't wait for them to talk, so he kept gesturing.
From Lin Jiao's point of view, Qu Shao kept waving his hand to the side, as if he was twitching, which was worrying.
She stepped forward and asked with concern, "Brother Qu, are your hands cramping?"
Qu Shao: "…"
After receiving a death stare, he moved his wrist bones: "Well, I've been a little deficient in calcium recently."
"have you seen a doctor?"
"Look, it's not a big problem."
"That's good." Lin Jiao was really afraid that he would accidentally cause a car accident: "Go back and cook some big bone soup, make up more."
Qu Shao touched the tip of his nose: "Okay."
He drove forward without distraction, and after ten minutes of dawdling, he finally hit the brakes outside the restaurant.
"Uncle, I'm leaving first." Lin Jiao put her phone in her bag and opened the car door.
Pei Zhi nodded: "Remember to take your medicine."
"Okay." Lin Jiao smiled: "See you tomorrow." The sun shines on her eyelashes, casting ripples on her lower eyelid.
The breeze swayed her skirt, and everything around her seemed to be reduced to her background.
It was clearly an ordinary sunny day, but it left a beautiful picture in his heart that he could not forget for a long time.
"Boss." Seeing that his soul was lost, Qu Shao said helplessly, "Would you like to go in for a meal? We'll meet again by chance."
Pei Zhi glanced at him: "Drive."
"Where to go?"
"company."
"It's Saturday." He didn't want to work overtime.
"so what?"
Qu Shao clenched the steering wheel and used detour tactics: "You promised Miss Lin to go home to rest, you can't lie to her, right?"
Pei Zhi's expression softened.
He lit a cigarette: "Then go home first." Without waiting for the other party to laugh, he added: "Go to the company to help me get the documents."
"What document? Is there no electronic version?"
"No."
"..." He recognized it.
Qu Shao stepped on the accelerator with one foot.
The steam from the exhaust gas, along with his sadness, was mercilessly blown away by the wind.

melodious music, floating in the restaurant.
Lin Jiao, who was sitting alone at a table, took two sips of the lemon tea brought by the waiter and waited for the figure to appear.
She waited for nearly half an hour and made several calls to Gu Quan, but no one answered.
In the past, she would still make excuses for him, such as traffic jams on the road, something in the company, or the phone was on mute, etc.
But now... she began to wonder if he was with that 'her'.
Once the seeds of doubt are planted, even a small act of the other party can imagine hundreds of different, not so wonderful pictures.
As a result, it became out of control.
"Lin Jiao." A condescending male voice came, making Lin Jiao's thoughts return to the cage.
As soon as she raised her head, she met He Qi's smiling eyes: "Why are you? Where is Gu Quan?"
"He can't come."
"What's the meaning?"
"Literally." He Qi pulled away the chair opposite: "I haven't eaten at this restaurant yet, it looks good."
Lin Jiao clenched his hands into fists: "Where is he?"
"Airport access."
"Who to pick up?"
"Su Tian." He Qi flipped through the menu and said calmly, "Didn't you know?"
His simple words made Lin Jiao's heart fall to the bottom of the valley and into a thorny thorn.
She pursed her lips, her hands trembling uncontrollably: "What is their relationship?"
"Lovers?"
"what about me?"
"You." He Qi raised Erlang's legs and ordered two dishes with great interest: "You can at most count as a concoction in his life."
Lin Jiao bit his lower lip, and the strong smell of blood permeated in the next second, causing nausea.
She narrowed her red eyes, an unprecedented sense of humiliation hit every inch of her nerves, and her dress was also creased a few folds.
Seeing her silence, He Qi smiled even more: "Do you know why Brother Quan is with you?"
He unlocked his phone and sent her a photo.
's tone became more and more contemptuous: "They all say that you look like Su Tian, but I don't think you can even match a third of her."
The red dot displayed in the WeChat frame is particularly dazzling.
Lin Jiao hesitated for a long time, and with the last trace of unwillingness, clicked on the group photo.
The background of the photo is the airport, wearing a white dress, a woman of the same style as her, facing the camera, with one hand around Gu Quan's waist, and a shy smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she was acting like a spoiled child.
Lin Jiao looked away and stared at Gu Quan's affectionate appearance, as if in the cold winter, the pores all over his body exuded a chill.
The **** facts are in front of her, and the two-year relationship has turned into a joke. Rao is prepared for her, and it is difficult not to complain.
"Lin Jiao." He Qiqu pointed and knocked on the table: "It's impossible for you and Brother Quan, you'd better not have any delusions about him."
Lin Jiao sneered, the light in his eyes went out, but not a single tear fell: "What is there for him to deserve my delusions?"
"Whether it's worth it, don't you know best? Anyway, I warn you, no matter what you do with Brother Quan, don't implicate Su Tian."
When he mentioned Su Tian, he unintentionally showed affection, which made Lin Jiapin feel a little weird.
She remembered the three-person photo she had seen in Gu Quan's bedroom, as if she had found the source of his malice towards her.
"What? You like her?"
He Qi's face changed: "Lin Jiao, what should I say and what should I not say, I don't need to teach you?"
"Still in a hurry?"
"Where am I in a hurry?"
Lin Jiao raised her eyebrows: "He Qi, isn't the taste of secret love uncomfortable? You can only watch her and other men kissing each other, but there is nothing you can do. You are quite pitiful."
"I'm pitiful?" He Qi pointed at himself, as if he had heard a joke.
He sarcastically said: "I'm better than you no matter what, don't you think it's funny to be used as a substitute and think that you have found true love?"
"At least I have it, how about you?" Lin Jiao raised her eyebrows: "You don't even have a chance to be with her. Who is more ridiculous?"
He Qi, who was stabbed in the sore spot, became annoyed and angry: "You are a plaything, and you still talk to me about owning? Are you worthy?"
“Wow—”
The lemon tea in the cup was splashed out by the slender hand, and with a touch of scalding, hit He Qi's dark face.
Spoiler: We will break up tomorrow night. (sprinkle flowers)
