Li Baoer didn’t speak out at once. She looks quietly at Xia Ning for some minutes. Then, she says slowly, “Because last evening, I learned from you that some things are not as happy and perfect as they look. Since we have made the choice, we have to bear it. We will know whether it is workable or not when we see the result. There is no use to make rootless guesses. Do you think so?”
Xia Ning listens to Li Baoer. She is shocked blankly for several seconds.
Did she mishear? The careless Li Baoer says such meaningful words?
Li Baoer sees Xia Ning stare at her quietly. She is confused, “Why? Ning, is there something on my face?”
“No. No.” Xia Ning shakes her head. She cries, “God. Are you the Li Baoer I have known? Are you possessed by something? It is really not like you, not like at all!”
Li Baoer rolls her eyes at Xia Ning, “To be honest, I really like to play the time-travel. But I have Zhongheng now. Before I am confirmed that he dumps me, I will not take the time-travel.”
Xia Ning smiles, “So, you have made up your mind to wait for him? Even if he may really dump you in the future…”
“Wait!” Not waiting for Xia Ning to finish her words, Li Baoer opens her palms, “Ning, you are my friend. Even though I have thought it through, I don’t want to hear such a result at present. You may leave me to cheat myself. OK?”
Xia Ning curls her lips. She shakes her head and gives a sigh.
All over the world, everyone is struggling and suffering for love. How to see the good from the bad is up to the mind.
It is not to be denied that Li Baoer becomes mature. At least, she is not as impulsive as before when some things happened to her. She also knows how to comfort herself.
This is a good thing. Xia Ning should not shock her. Instead, as a good friend, Xia Ning should support her!
Even though, to be honest, she is not sure whether it is right for her to comfort Li Baoer in this way.
“Baoer, actually, I admire you. I mean it. At least, you are always optimistic when you are thinking about things. Even the result may be the worst, you can smile at it. If only I can be as optimistic as you.”
Li Baoer widens her eyes, “Who says you are not? It is just that you don’t realize it! You don’t know how strong and persistent you are! There are words to describe you. Let me see…Well. You are the cockroach that not to be defeated!
Hearing this, Xia Ning is shocked in embarrassment.
Miss Li uses a cockroach to describe her!
“Miss Li Baoer, can you make a better metaphor? Are you praising me or making fun of me?”
“Hehe, cockroach is great. You know, the five saint knights are also described as cockroaches.” Li Baoer giggles. She holds out her hand to catch the candies Xia Ning throws to her. She unpacks them and puts them into her mouth. She chews them for a while, “Anyway, Ning, to be honest, if those happened to you happen to me, I really don’t know how to handle them. I have never told you one thing. In you, I can always see the sunshine. So, I love to stay with you. Don’t throw candies to me again. Don’t blame me for being sentimental. I am serious.”
Xia Ning is moved. A stream of warmth flows all over her body. Unconsciously, she holds Li Baoer’s hand, “Baoer, thank you. Well, let’s make an agreement that no matter what may happen to us in the future, you and I are always good friends! We will always support each other. we will always encourage each other!”
Li Baoer’s eyes gleam. She forcefully nods, “Hum. Deal!”
They are talking, when someone knocks at the door. Gu Ruoruo comes in.
“Hello! Bosses.” Gu Ruoruo closes the door. She goes to Xia Ning, “Director Xia, I just saw something and would like to tell you.”
“Ugh, I remember that I have some work to do. I may leave now.” Li Baoer makes a cough and stands up, “Ning, if the candies are not enough for your glucopenia, just let me know. Don’t bear it yourself. OK?”
Xia Ning nods, “OK.”
Li Baoer turns to leave. Gu Ruoruo speaks, “Sister Xia, do you know what happened between my brother and Sister Liqing?”
Xia Ning frowns, “Ruoruo, that’s between your brother and Director Wan. I am an outsider. I don’t have any interest in that.”
Gu Ruoruo curls her lips. Xia Ning is obviously doesn’t want her to gossip. But she is really very worried because of what she saw.
Gu Ruoruo is hesitating. Xia Ning gives a sigh, “Fine. You may tell me and stop it here. Tell me briefly.”
Gu Ruoruo’s eyes brighten. She sits down, “Well. Sister Liqing quarreled with my brother just now in my brother’s office. People outside all heard that. Then, Sister Liqing came out of the office and her eyes were red. Sister Xia, Sister Liqing was my brother’s girlfriend in the past. Then, because of some special reasons, Sister Liqing left my brother. My brother was depressed for some time. I know that my brother was very sad at that time. I also hate what Sister Liqing did. However, now, Sister Liqing is back. I can see that she still loves my brother very much. But it seems that my brother…”
Gu Ruoruo holds her face with her hands. She cocked her head, “It seems that my brother doesn’t like Sister Liqing. Sister Xia, just now, Sister Liqing came out and saw me. It seemed that she wanted to say something to me, but she hesitated. To be honest, I have never seen my brother lose his temper like this. Sister Xia, don’t you feel it strange?”
Xia Ning strokes her forehead. In an instant, she feels the whole world in a mess.
“Ruoruo, it is between your brother and Director Wan. Though Director Gu is your brother, love is not to be earned by force. You’d better not give any comments.”
“I know. However, Sister Xia, there is a rumor in the company, which is bad for you. Do you know?”
Xia Ning is surprised, “Rumor?”
Gu Ruoruo nods, “Yes. They said that Sister Liqing could get reconciled with my brother because of you. Because you interfered…”
Not waiting for Gu Ruoruo to finish her words, Xia Ning waves her hand to stop her, “Ruoruo, you had said that, too, before the rumor.” When they had sushi last time, what Gu Ruoruo said was heard by all the people in the restaurant.
Gu Ruoruo is shocked. She unconsciously opens her mouth for quite a while. Then, she strokes her head and smiles, “Hehe, it seems so. Anyhow, Sister Xia, I didn’t spread the rumor! I am frank, but I like to speak face to face. I never tell bad words of other people behind them.”
Xia Ning smiles helplessly, “Then, do you think it true?”
Xia Ning throws the question back to Gu Ruoruo. Gu Ruoruo pauses for a while. Actually, she had no idea.
Yes, she saw what happened between Xia Ning and Ou Yixuan. She was very angry at that time. She considered Xia Ning as a tricky home wrecker.
But when she got along with Xia Ning in the following days, she became more and more unsure about Xia Ning.
Aren’t home wreckers all tricky and evil? But Gu Ruoruo has found nothing like that in Xia Ning.
Even if Xia Ning was clear that she was taken advantage of and bullied by other people, she still didn’t argue. It made Gu Ruoruo more confused.
It is really hard for Gu Ruoruo to understand.
