In a sense, Liu Lihai should feel lucky. He had slept with such a woman for several years, and he had ravaged her from heart to body. He had thought that after he had had Sun Xiaomu, he would not have any desire for other women, especially for Leng Hongyan.
Now, the change of Liu Lihai's lower body and the impulse in his heart made him clearly know that he was still reluctant to part with Leng Mei. It was a great pleasure and enjoyment to have a woman who was like an elder sister to spoil and protect him.
But this feeling didn't stay for long. Liu Lihai scolded himself in his heart. How could he do this? He felt sorry for Sun Xiaomu, but he also felt that Sun Xiaomu was becoming more and more like a mystery. Was Sun Xiaomu's chastity really for leaving a perfect love? Or was she not pure in the first place? If that was the case, Sun Xiaomu was too good at pretending.
Mysteries, one mystery after another, made Liu Lihai's head hurt. He tried to restrain himself, let himself think less, let himself face the present, face Leng Hongyan in front of him.
Leng Hongyan didn't avoid Liu Lihai's eyes. Seeing that Liu Lihai didn't avoid it, she asked him first, "What's the matter?"
Leng Hongyan's words pulled Liu Lihai back to work. He smiled to cover up his impulse just now. However, there was no emotion in Leng Hongyan's eyes, which made him a little disappointed. He felt that he was actually not a good thing. On the one hand, he wanted to refuse this woman, on the other hand, he hoped that this woman would keep pretending to be him. Moreover, she would pretend to be him without complaint or regret. This might be a common problem of men. When a woman really lost her heart to him, he would feel lost. When a woman lingered on him, he would feel tired. He needed a woman to be close when he was close, and far away when he was far away. He could love at will, and he could fade away at will, but what about women? There were also a few women who didn't want their beloved men to stay by their side and stick to them. Feelings, this thing, other than endlessly tormenting people, what else could it be?
Liu Lihai's thoughts diverged in front of Leng Hongyan until Leng Hongyan asked again, "You're not here because of Silence, are you?" Liu Lihai seemed to wake up and hurriedly said, "I have something to discuss with Minister Leng."
When Leng Hongyan heard the words "Minister Leng", he snorted and didn't say anything else. Liu Lihai felt awkward again. His impulsiveness just now disappeared without a trace. He hurriedly said, "I'll take over the red tourism project in Lin County. I hope to get some advice from Minister Leng."
Leng Hongyan snorted again, and Liu Lihai lowered his head. Leng Hongyan glanced at Liu Lihai and got up to return to the office. He heard the sound of documents flipping. About two minutes later, Leng Hongyan found a document and called out to Liu Lihai, "Come and take a look."
Liu Lihai stood up and approached Leng Hongyan's desk. She handed the document to him. He took the document back to the sofa and sat down to read it. After reading it, he asked her, "Is there any hope of entering the tourism route in Lin County?"
"Where there is a will, there is a way." Leng Hongyan said.
"Then what should I do?" Liu Lihai asked.
Leng Hongyan didn't answer Liu Lihai's words, but sighed. Liu Lihai looked at her strangely, but her face was clearly very calm. However, this sigh fell into his heart, and he felt a sense of heaviness.
No one in the office spoke for a while, and the air seemed to have a lot of weight pressing down on Liu Lihai. He didn't know how to break the silence, so he was stunned on the sofa for a while. After a few minutes, Leng Hongyan broke the silence. She said, "Let's go to the provincial capital. I'll take you to Minister Dong, who is in charge of the tourism route."
Liu Lihai breathed a sigh of relief and even cast a grateful look at Leng Hongyan. However, Leng Hongyan didn't look at him again, but took the lead to walk out of the office. They went to the elevator one after another. Fortunately, there was someone in the elevator. If it was just him and her, Liu Lihai really didn't know how to face it.
After going downstairs, Leng Hongyan said to Liu Lihai, "Take my car."
Liu Lihai said, "En." Leng Hongyan's car was of course much better than his, and she was still thinking of him. He felt grateful again. He didn't know what was wrong with him. Leng Hongyan usually did so many things for him, but he didn't have this kind of gratitude. It seemed that people really couldn't be too close to each other. Once they got close, the things that should be grateful would become numb.
In the car, Leng Hongyan asked the driver to pick a Beijing opera dish. When the song "Farewell My Concubine" played, Liu Lihai's heart trembled again. He tried to look at her face, but she kept closing her eyes to listen to the song.
Liu Lihai couldn't figure out what Leng Hongyan was thinking. He said that she didn't have feelings for him, but she was still helping him. He said that she still had feelings for him, but she was so calm.
Until the car arrived at the provincial capital, Leng Hongyan didn't say a word to Liu Lihai. He let Jing Tiao spin in the car. Song Lihai had been infected by the words "King" countless times, but the words "Beloved Concubine" no longer had his own love and his own protection. Leng Hongyan let the previous willingness be erased bit by bit and disappeared. She let the boy she loved with all her heart swing in front of her, swaying. She didn't know her current state of mind, nor did she know what kind of state she should use to face Liu Lihai. She couldn't forget him. This kind of forgetting existed in her life, in her memories, whether she wanted to or not. No matter how much Yao Haidong cared for her, no matter how Yao Haidong protected her, she couldn't accept Yao Haidong. This couldn't be helped.
The car stopped in front of the provincial government building. Leng Hongyan got out of the car first, and Liu Lihai followed closely. When they were walking to the government building, they bumped into Sun Xiaomu.
Liu Lihai's heart suddenly fell.
At this time, Leng Hongyan obviously saw Sun Xiaomu, but she pretended not to know Sun Xiaomu. She looked ahead, still looking high and mighty. For her, she was defeated by such a little girl and was eliminated in such a miserable way. In her heart, Leng Hongyan couldn't forgive this little girl.
Women were always like this. They would rather hurt each other and fight with each other, but they wouldn't blame this fault on the man. In fact, in a sense, this matter was Liu Lihai's fault, not Sun Xiaomu. But Leng Hongyan didn't think so. She blamed all the fault on Sun Xiaomu. This encounter gave Leng Hongyan a chance to take revenge and vent her hatred.
Leng Hongyan deliberately closed the distance between Liu Lihai and Liu Lihai, and deliberately walked side by side with Liu Lihai. Of course, Liu Lihai didn't notice Leng Hongyan's change at this time. He was shocked by Sun Xiaomu's sudden appearance in the provincial government building. He couldn't think for a moment and just stared at Sun Xiaomu.
Sun Xiaomu's lips moved a few times, but she didn't say a word. She passed between Liu Lihai and Leng Hongyan. This action surprised Leng Hongyan. This girl was really bold. Of course, Sun Xiaomu was no longer a staff of Jingjiang Daily Newspaper. She didn't need to care about Leng Hongyan.
But why did Sun Xiaomu come out of the provincial government building? This question came to Liu Lihai's mind, and this question occupied all his mind, making him forget that he was now with Leng Hongyan. When he reacted and chased after Sun Xiaomu, Sun Xiaomu ran away. When Liu Lihai quickened his pace to chase after her, he heard Leng Hongyan's cold voice behind him. "Are you going to Minister Dong's place or not?"
Leng Hongyan's words froze Liu Lihai. He looked at the back of Sun Xiaomu running away, sighed, and turned to follow Leng Hongyan to the provincial government building.
Leng Hongyan saw that Liu Lihai still followed her, and smiled with satisfaction. Of course, she quickly hid her smile. She wouldn't let Liu Lihai know that she was doing this on purpose.
Sun Xiaomu, who was running, had tears in her eyes. She shouted desperately in her heart, "Sun Xiaomu, don't cry." But when she ran to a secluded place, tears rolled down like soybeans. She simply sat on the ground and let her tears fall freely. She even hated herself for not going out earlier or later, but at this time. She didn't want to see the scene of Liu Lihai and Leng Hongyan together, even though she had doubts in her heart. Would Liu Lihai really cut off the relationship with Leng Hongyan for her? But she always told herself that Liu Lihai loved her, and Liu Lihai also cared about her. Now, Liu Lihai was together with Leng Hongyan, whom she had always been afraid of. She couldn't stand the scene of them together. Every time she thought of them entangled together, there was a nameless fire in Sun Xiaomu's heart. She tried to persuade herself to understand Liu Lihai, to accept the existence of Leng Hongyan, but the fire in her heart would always be inadvertently ignited.
Sun Xiaomu even thought that this nameless fire would burn the love between her and Liu Lihai. Although she didn't want to end this love, although she had always longed for a pure love. But in reality, there would always be such and such unexpected events that made her doubt the existence and aesthetics of love. Every time she faced love, she didn't know what to do with Liu Lihai. She knew that there were many things in him that she couldn't accept, but she would still think of him, miss him, care about him, and do things for him that she didn't like to do in the first place. For him, she compromised again and again, and again and again relaxed her requirements for him and her imagination of love. But now, the trust that she had just established for Liu Lihai was once again shattered by the appearance of Leng Hongyan. She didn't know how she should hold on to the love that she wanted, and she didn't know if there was any meaning in her holding on. Did she still need to hold on to it? Was love really that important to her?
