Sophie's gentle gaze suddenly became stern. She asked, "What did you say?"
Li Du said, "Brother Wolf and Ivana want to stay in Phoenix. Hans and I discussed it. Flagstaff is too small for our business. We have to go to a bigger city."
Sophie lost her temper with Li Du for the first time. She shoved the flowers back at him, grabbed her bag, and walked quickly with her head down.
Li Du quickly caught up with her and said, "What's wrong? Is the cute girl angry? "
"Angry? I'm angry? "Sophie turned back and looked at him angrily." No, I'm not angry. I'm sad, sad! "
Li Du smiled bitterly. "If you don't want me to go to Phoenix, then I'll stay in Flagstaff."
Sophie pushed him away and continued walking. She said angrily, "It doesn't matter where you go. I respect your choice, but you have to respect me too. Ask yourself, have you ever respected me?"
Li Du said, "I didn't expect you to return to work so soon. I wanted to pack my things before telling you. It's not a big deal, is it?"
Sophie said, "Yes, it's not a big deal. Your home is not in Flagstaff, and your job is not in Flagstaff. You can go to Australia, you can go to Phoenix. What's a big deal to you?"
Hearing her say this, Li Du understood her anger.
Sophie was different from him and Hans. Her home and work were here. Her circle of life was here. All her space was here.
Li Du had not discussed this with her in advance. His sudden proposal to leave Flagstaff for Phoenix was like a bolt from the blue to her.
He softened his tone and said, "I'm sorry, Sophie. I thought too simply. But if you don't want to go now, I can continue to stay in Flagstaff."
Hearing his apology, Sophie's expression softened. "I'm not —"
Just as she opened her mouth, Li Du's phone rang.
Seeing this, Sophie said, "You answer the phone first."
The call was from Luo Qun. After Li Du answered, Luo Qun asked, "When are you going to Phoenix? Who knows, maybe we can go together. My transfer went very smoothly this time … "
As a police officer, Luo Qun was used to having a loud voice. Even though she was not on speakerphone, Sophie and Li Du could hear what she was saying.
After hearing her words, Sophie's improved mood immediately turned from sunny to cloudy, cloudy to drizzling, and gradually showed signs of a rainstorm.
Li Du had no time to argue with Luo Qun and hung up on her.
As soon as he hung up, Sophie's thunderstorm swept over. "What do you mean? You didn't tell me about such a big thing, but told other girls first?! Tell me, what does that mean? "
Everything was a freak accident, and Li Du did not know how to explain it.
Mainly, he did not take it to heart. He felt that going to Phoenix was not a big deal. Sophie should understand him. At most, he would resign and he would support her.
He tried to explain to Sophie, but Sophie did not want to listen. Li Du's apology had worked, but it would not work this time.
All along, the two of them had been together affectionately. Li Du had neglected the fact that Sophie was an only child and had her own temper. This time, her temper exploded violently.
Li Du had no experience in this area. He could only deal with it coldly and dejectedly returned to the camp.
Hans saw that he walked listlessly and wondered, "What's wrong? Are you suffering from myasthenia gravis syndrome? "
Li Du was not in the mood to joke with him and told him what had happened.
When Hans heard that Luo Qun had called, he showed a sympathetic expression and said, "You're really unlucky."
Li Du sighed. "Yeah, what do we do now?"
Hans waved his hand carelessly. "What can we do? Go and explain to Sophie. Don't look like it's the end of the world. This is not a hopeless situation. "
"I know it's not a hopeless situation. I just don't know how to deal with it."
Hans patted his chest and said, "Don't you have me? I'll help you. "
The solution was to communicate. The next day, when Sophie went to work, Hans asked him to wait at the entrance of the hospital. He said that his girlfriend wanted to see his attitude. As long as his attitude was okay, there would be no problem.
Li Du was skeptical. The next morning, he drove to the hospital, bought Sophie's favorite coffee and desserts, and waited to explain to her.
He sat in his car and waited. The parking lot was in front of the office building. If Sophie came, he would definitely see her.
When it was time to go to work, Sophie, wearing a long, flowing dress, walked over gracefully with a small bag.
Li Du was about to get out of the car when a tall, handsome blonde man appeared in his field of vision. He walked quickly toward Sophie and handed her a bouquet of colorful roses.
Seeing this, Li Du was shocked. D * mn, I just quarreled with Sophie. It wasn't even a quarrel, just a small conflict. Now someone is trying to poach me?
And the person who was trying to poach me was not an ordinary person. He could tell from the car he was driving — a Bentley!
Li Du remembered that the doctor's name was Johnny or something. He had pursued Sophie before, but at that time, Sophie was already with him and firmly rejected him.
Seeing the flowers that Johnny handed over, Sophie was stunned. She waved and said, "Good morning, Dr. Graz. What's this?"
The blonde doctor smiled brightly and said, "Good morning, Sophie. On my way to work, I saw a flower shop with colorful roses. When I saw these roses, I thought of you. I wanted to buy a bouquet for you. I hope it will bring you a good mood for the day."
Seeing a handsome man giving flowers to a beautiful woman, some doctors, nurses, and patients' families gathered around. Some clapped and some smiled. When Li Du saw this, he could not help but scold, "Adding fuel to the fire!"
He bought breakfast for Sophie, but he did not buy any flowers. This kind of breakfast was a complete loss for him in terms of appearance.
However, there were also fresh flowers in the car. They were the daffodils that he had prepared for Sophie yesterday. This was one of Sophie's favorite flowers.
However, the flowers had been simmered in the car overnight and were now wilted. They could not be taken out at all.
In particular, the colorful roses in the male doctor's hands were still so bright. There would be no harm if there was no comparison. The comparison between the two bouquets of flowers was too much for Li Du.
Depressed, Li Du wanted to throw the bouquet away. In the end, when he picked it up, he found that there were a few buds that had not bloomed yet.
"D * mn, profiteer," Li Du cursed. He cursed. Yesterday, the florist must have mixed a few worthless flower buds among the valuable flowers to make the bouquet look bigger.
Looking at the flower buds that were about to bloom, he suddenly had an idea.
The little bug could make time flow. When used on objects, it could make them age. What if it was used on these flower buds?
With this idea in mind, he took out a flower bud and did an experiment. He summoned the little bug and let it absorb the time ability of the flower bud.
