Wear it well, don’t lose it.” Gu Shaoxuan opened her fist, put the ring in, and the smile on his lips grew softer.

    Su Lingxin watched silently as he held her hand, black ink was stained on the fingers of the two people, and the lining of the skin was as white as jade.

    Black and white, strong and weak, in this stark contrast, the ring reflecting the bright light is like a fragile connection …

Silence.

“Eat something, and then rest early.” Gu Shaoxuan saw her being silent. Knowing that her heart was extremely resisting, his tone was soft as he let go of her hand and left the room.

In the tea room, there was a piece of calligraphy left by Su Rui, with the words “龙飞凤舞” written on it. (translation: As lively and elegant as dragons flying and phoenixes dancing.)

    At first glance, Mo Jingran saw the ring on Su Lingxin’s hand. It was very flashy. From some angles, it was bright and dazzling, with a halo of light, hanging on the ring finger, it was difficult to miss it. The person wearing the ring was obviously very unhappy. She looked embarassed, as if she owed money all over the world. Her eyes were beautiful but were always desperately suppressing something.

    Like the last dinner, the atmosphere was a bit dull and depressing. Even though Gu Shaoxuan and Mo Jingran talked occasionally, the air was still vaguely inscrutable.

    Mo Jingran’s eyes had shifted to Su Lingxin’s finger for the third time, but he didn’t ask anything until the end of the dinner. And had a tacit understanding with Gu Shaoxuan; they can only talk about Di Tian.

    Su Lingxin didn’t say a word, and was abnormally silent. After dinner, she didn’t return to her bedroom, but came to the room on the southeast corner of the second floor instead. Since her mother died, Su Lingxin deliberately avoided certain memories and rarely come to this room. After Su Rui’s death, she rarely opened the door. Because her Dad is very busy at work, Su Lingxin often slept with her mother until she was thirteen or fourteen years old, so she only wanted to cry whenever she saw the bed inside.

    If Ling Haofeng was there and saw her standing in front of the door in a daze, he would know that her mood was very bad.

    This is the bedroom of Mr. and Mrs. Su Rui, carrying the best memories of Su Lingxin.

    For Su Lingxin, the saddest thing in the world is that by the time the child wanted to be filial, the parents are already gone.

    Photos of a family of three were hung in the bedroom with a simple and warm decoration. At that time, Su Lingxin was only one year old. She was like a doll. She had big black grape-like eyes among her parents. She looked glitz with those clean and curious eyes.

Su Lingxin locked the door and walks slowly to the big bed. Everything here is the same as Su Rui left, even including the position of the ashtray on the bedside table, and the half-turned book …

Su Rui is a book reader and is particularly fond of reading history. The half-turned book on the bedside is “資治通鑑”. Su Lingxin reached out and took the book, leaned on the bedside, and slowly turned it page by page. (Zi Zhi Tong Jian [Eng Trans:Comprehensive Mirror in Aid of Governance] is a pioneering reference work in Chinese historiography, published in 1084 in the form of a chronicle.) (source: wikipedia)

    Outside the window, the moonlight was blurred, and the nightingale’s tweet was faintly heard, and everything was quite.

    Some pages in the middle of the book in Su Lingxin’s hands were already crumpled, with deep and shallow tear marks. Now, there are new tear marks on that book, and the yellowish color is shone in the warm light. In the middle of the night, even the nightingale did not cry. The door of Su Rui’s bedroom was opened silently. In such a quiet night, it was a little cloudy.

    Su Lingxin lay on the bed, her pink face cuddled up against the thick book, her brows furrowed slightly, and she seemed to be having a very sad dream. With a slightly sad look, he quietly looked at the picture hanging on the bed, and his eyes finally fell on Su Lingxin’s face slowly. Such a beautiful silhouette, when sleeping, is very similar to Mrs. Rose, with a kind of pity and tenderness.

    Mo Jingran stepped on the thick carpet, came to the bed, and leaned down. His fingers had not touched the thick book. The slight sound from the doorway made him turn in shock.

    Gu Shaoxuan leaned on the railing, and the narrow and rising eyes flashed an inexplicable light.

    Mo Jingran straightened up, put on a thin quilt, covered Su Lingxin’s body, and then exited the room silently.

    “Can’t sleep?” Gu Shaoxuan seemed to know that Mo Jingran liked “sleepwalking” in the middle of the night. After Mo Jingran stepped out and closed the door, he asked with a smile.

    “You too?” Of course Mo Jingran couldn’t sleep. He hasn’t been back for many years. Everything here hasn’t changed. Even the family portrait in the bedroom is still Su Lingxin’s photo when she was one year old.

    “You know that I sleep very little.” Gu Shaoxuan had excess energy. He closed his eyes every day for a while and was able to deal with busy work one after another.

    Su Rui also lamented his learning ability and working efficiency. In fact, many times, Gu Shaoxuan spent a lot of homework in private, but he didn’t like effort being seen by others.

    “He doesn’t like change.” Gu Shaoxuan stared at Mo Jingran with a smile.

    Mo Jingran also smiled bitterly and turned to walk to his room.

    “Jingran has nothing else to tell me?” Gu Shaoxuan looked at his back and asked suddenly.

    Mo Jingran stopped, didn’t turn back, and said a few seconds later: “Children without parents, they are really pitiful.”

    Gu Shaoxuan’s eyes dropped slightly, and he stopped talking, watching Mo Jingran quietly.

    Children without parents … aren’t they all?

    ***

    Su Lingxin returned to Di Tian. She unusually did not clash with the iceberg anymore but sat on the sofa instead and looked at the people who are busy.

    Tang Huan’s face was cold, impervious to the phone and documents.

    Su Lingxin has been on the sofa opposite him from the morning, like a bodhisattva, without speaking or going to the bathroom…

    At lunch time, she did not go downstairs to eat, like an old monk she sat still, as if she is cultivating.

    Tang Huan pressed the phone and called for lunch.

    He’s been very busy lately, so busy that he’s almost out of meal time. The Bodhisattva opposite is better, and she doesn’t know how to pass the time every day.

    “You only ordered one?”

    Just as Tang Huan waited for lunch and was ready to eat, the Jade Buddha spoke.

    Tang Huan looked up coldly, looking at Su Lingxin.

    She is his own assistant. Su Lingxin should have done such a small thing as arranging meals, but when she spoke, how did he feel that he was her deputy?

    “According to the employee code, the boss should also care about the needs of his subordinates, right?” Su Lingxin looked coldly at Tang Huan. She stood up, walked to the desk, and picked up the working meal in front of him.

    She didn’t feel hungry until the scent of the meal came out.

    But now, when she smelled the delicious food, Su Lingxin was hungry immediately.

    Tang Huan tightened his fingers and stood up.

    Forget it, he’s a big man, why can’t he just let this little girl do what she wants?

    “I’ll help you get another one, why go?” Su Lingxin saw him get up and said in a hurry.

    “I have no appetite. You eat it slowly.” Tang Huan wanted to hold the phone on her forehead. Since the baby girl arrived, he hasn’t had a day at rest.

    Coupled with the recent reform of the company’s system, the situation has changed, and Tang Huan had no energy to adjust to her.

    “Hey, don’t go.” Su Lingxin suddenly reached out and blocked his way. She commanded aggressively. “Sit down.”

    Tang Huan took a deep breath. He was under a lot of stress recently, so his mood would be very bad, and sometimes he could not control it. He just wanted to leave.

    “Sit down and talk with me.” Su Lingxin saw him standing still, she reached out and patted Tang Huan’s shoulder, still in a commanding tone.

    Tang Huan felt the veins in his forehead pulse. He was not a pet!

    “Can’t you?” Su Lingxin saw that he was standing still, and the command tone was stained with a few sadness-like emotions, and his eyes looked softer.

    Tang Huan wanted to say no, but seeing her aggressive eyes softened, his brow wrinkled slightly, and he sat back on his seat, like a piece of ice that will never melt.

    “I’ll help you get another one.” Su Lingxin saw him sit down and immediately called for his lunch diligently.

    Dedicate yourself to nothing and steal.

    Especially for Su Lingxin, such a small thorn rose, her dedication is definitely not good.

    “I can say something directly. If I can do it, I won’t quit, and if I can’t do it, I won’t be able to do it.” Since Su Lingxin came back, Tang Huan’s attitude towards her completely changed, he saw that the woman is important for Gu Shaoxuan, so he can no longer train her like he did before.

    Now Tang Huan only hopes that Gu Shaoxuan will transfer her away quickly, and don’t put it in the public relations department so he won’t have to take care of this baby vase. (He describes Lingxin as a vase since she is just a decoration and doesn’t really do her job.)

    “Don’t be nervous, I won’t make any excessive demands.” Su Lingxin was eating and watching Tang Huan thoughtfully, saying in the tone of his elder superior.

    “Come on.” Tang Huan wanted to smash Su Lingxin with the file at his hand, he was so nervous! Even if she made excessive demands, he will mostly be kicked out by Gu Shaoxuan.kicked

    He took the tea and sent it to his lips, trying to suppress his irritability.

    “You seem to be busy lately, why don’t you let me share some of the work for you?” As soon as Su Lingxin said something gentle, the tea in Tang Huan’s mouth sprayed out. He didn’t know whether it was intentional or unintentional.

    And the working meal in front of her…

Su Lingxin’s expression wanted to stabilize, but her lips trembled slightly, but she still couldn’t stabilize, and got up.
