Chapter 7
Chapter 6 – Out Of Reach
“It’s okay if you don’t go back.” The summer sun is hot even in the evening, Ming Lang shields Ji Chenli from the sun, and feels dry mouth after standing for a long time, so he bends down and picks up the big bag Ji Chenli put on the ground The tea mug took a sip of water, whether it was intentional or not, his lips happened to be on the spot where Ji Chenli drank water before.
She was probably very thirsty, and she drank most of Ji Chenli’s glass of water. When she swallowed, her throat moved up and down, and she was bound by the shirt collar button that was buttoned to the top. Her neck was almost transparent in the sun, and her whole body was emitting A sensuality that is both incongruous and unattainable.
Ming Lang’s hands are not suitable for holding such a shoddy, cheap tea mug whose year of manufacture belongs to the last century. Her hands are most suitable for holding a high-quality bone china teacup. Her slightly pale fingertips and warm and soft white Porcelain complements each other, and the paintings are as beautiful.
In Ji Chenli’s impression, Ming Lang is very particular about food and clothing, not to mention drinking water from other people’s cups, even if a certain teacup is touched by a pair of unsterilized hands, Ming Lang has to order People took away the whole tea set and threw it away, so when Ming Lang drank water from her broken tea mug, Ji Chenli was so shocked that he even forgot to refuse.
“Did you put sugar?” Ming Lang handed the tea mug back to Ji Chenli.
“No.” After all, Ji Chenli and Ming Lang have lived together for seven years, some movements have become a habit, she naturally took the tea mug, wondering: “Is it sweet?”
Ming Lang pressed his tongue against his teeth and pondered for a while before nodding, and winked at Ji Chenli slyly, “Sweet.”
“…” Ji Chenli’s face dropped instantly, she felt that she had probably been tricked by Minglang.
Sure enough, he couldn’t get home by practicing, Ji Chenli thought he knew Ming Lang well, not to mention that this was the young and vigorous Ming Lang seven years ago, who knew that if he didn’t pay attention, he would still be tricked by others, Ji Chenli drooped his eyebrows, a little angry stuffy.
Ming Lang was in a good mood after drinking the water, silently looked at the orphanage, and said after a long time: “So you live here.”
Ji Chenli thought about it, this is really the first time that Minghong came to this place, she had been chasing after Minglang in her previous life, and Minglang was always following the woman named Han Xinyuan, how could she be free? Show mercy to care about where Ji Chenli used to live next, and since Tao Yuan died, Ji Chenli himself has never been to this place. Thinking of this, Ji Chenli twitched the corners of his mouth, not even smiling, and the originally hot sun suddenly cooled down.
Ming Lang turned back and asked the assistant, “Is there any record for this orphanage in the Ministry of Civil Affairs?”
The assistant took a step forward, bowed his head behind Ming Lang and said, “No, this is an illegal orphanage for children.”
Ming Lang seemed quite interested in this statement, and repeated: “Illegal?”
“Yes, according to relevant laws and regulations, social organizations and individuals must co-organize with the civil affairs department when they set up a child welfare institution, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs must approve it. This welfare institution has not applied for similar approval procedures, and…”
“And what?”
“And the dean has long used his personal account to accept external donations, suspected of fraud and illegal fundraising…”
As the assistant said, Ji Chenli’s face also turned pale, and she finally stood up from the stool, facing Minglang, clenched her teeth and clenched her fists, “Minglang, what do you want?”
“go home with me.”
“This is my home!”
Before Ming Lang could speak, the assistant memorized the book next to him, “According to the laws of our country, using fraud to raise funds illegally shall be punished with fixed-term imprisonment of not more than five years or criminal detention…”
Ji Chenli was wearing slippers, while Ming Lang was wearing high heels, so he was ten centimeters taller than Ji Chenli. He lowered his head and looked at Ji Chenli with no expression on his face, but Ji Chenli didn’t miss the pride in his eyes.
At that time, Ji Chenli was furious in his chest, but he didn’t suppress it, he grabbed Minglang’s ironed collar and gritted his teeth, “Minglang, don’t bully others too much.”
The obviously rude and provocative action made Ming Lang not only not angry, but for the first time in his life, he hugged Ji Chenli into his arms. The assistant was surprised behind him, but as soon as her hand touched Ji Chenli’s waist, Ji Chenli Jumping away as if stung by a bee, Ming Hong shrugged and retracted his hands, with a calm expression and no embarrassment at all.
“Ming, you still have the face!” The two of them were in a stalemate, another woman’s voice came from the entrance of the alley, roaring aggressively all the way from the end of the alley to the end of the alley, Ji Chenli was blocked by Ming Lang, but she You don’t need to look to know who is coming, and you sigh helplessly while covering your head.
Tao Yuan was afraid that Ji Chenli would suffer Minghong’s slight loss, so he protected Ji Chenli behind him like a chicken, stared at Minghong and said in a bad tone, “What do you want?”
Ming Lang didn’t know Tao Yuan, and had no intention of arguing with strangers, so he said to Ji Chenli through Tao Yuan: “You think carefully.” Then he winked at the assistant, who understood, and trot to the side of the car to help Ming Lang. After opening the car door, Ming Lang’s foot also moved, turned around and walked towards the car door, ignoring Tao Yuan’s angry eyes, and seemed not worried about Ji Chenli’s going or staying.
Ji Chenli stood still behind Tao Yuan, clenched his fists and watched Ming Lang walk to the car door step by step, get in the car, the assistant closed the door, the engine started, and the whole set of actions was done in one go, the assistant must have served countless times, to Ming Lang habits are clear.
When the car window was slowly raised, Ji Chenli suddenly shouted: “Wait!”
The car window stopped halfway, just covering half of Minghong’s face, covering the corners of Minglang’s raised lips.
“Sister, I’m sorry.” Ji Chenli bowed to Tao Yuan, and walked to the side of Minglang’s car without looking back, leaving Tao Yuan standing there with a surprised expression on his face.
“I promise you.” Ji Chenli stood outside the car window and looked at Ming Lang bitterly and said.
“boarding.”
The assistant tactfully opened the door of the back seat of the other car for Ji Chenli.
“Ji Chenli! If you dare to go with her, you will never recognize me as a sister for the rest of your life!” Tao Yuan was visibly agitated after Ji Chen left.
Ji Chenli paused when he got into the car, gritted his teeth and got into the car, without saying a word to Tao Yuan.
The convoy drove away quickly, and the remote urban-rural fringe area returned to its dilapidated appearance.
Ji Chenli sat next to the edge of the car seat, half of her body was almost pressed against the door, she tried to stay away from Ming Lang as much as possible, but the car is so big, no matter how wide it can be, Ming Lang is familiar The faint fragrance filled the narrow space inside the car, every time Ji Chenli took a breath, he felt as if his throat had been cut by a knife, it was almost suffocating.
“That person is very important to you?” After a long time, Ming Lang spoke first to break the silence.
Ji Chenli looked sideways at the rapidly receding green belt outside the window, using silence to fight against Minglang’s despicable means.
Ming Lang was not discouraged, and sat down to Ji Chenli’s side, and asked again: “Is it your sister?”
She didn’t know how to measure, she moved a bit too much to Ji Chenli’s side, their thighs were sticking together, Ji Chenli’s scalp was numb, and half of her buttocks were off the seat, feeling like she was sitting on pins and needles.
“Minglang.” Ji Chenli said.
“Huh?” Ming Lang’s tone rose a little.
“Aren’t you afraid that Han Xinyuan will get angry when you come to me?”
Ming Lang fell silent, and finally his bright face was as gloomy as before, “Han Xinyuan and I don’t have that kind of relationship.”
Ji Chenli sneered, if she hadn’t experienced the next seven years, maybe she would have believed it.
“Are you hungry?” Minglang conjured up an exquisite lunch box from somewhere and delivered it to Ji Chenli, “Eat something.”
It was a transparent lunch box, Ji Chenli saw the food inside from the corner of his eye, it was a pancake fruit.
Ji Chenli is not greedy, and he has no special preference for food. If he insists on saying the same thing, it is probably pancake fruit. Pancakes do not add eggs, put two pieces of crispy, and then brush some sweet bean sauce. When biting, they crunch in the mouth, and the fragrance is fragrant. overflow.
Pancakes are delicious only when they are freshly made. After a long time, they tend to regain moisture and lose their crunchy texture. Minglang’s lunch box for pancakes is high-end, and the pancakes inside are so soft that when Ji Chenli saw it, he lost his appetite, “I’m not hungry.”
Ming Lang nodded without any reluctance, and put away the lunch box. She wanted to say something, but faced with Ji Chenli’s obvious refusal, she kept her mouth shut and said nothing all the way.
Ming Lang didn’t bring Ji Chenli back to the Ming family’s mansion. She was busy with business, so she didn’t usually go back to Ming’s house much, and sometimes she couldn’t go back once in a few months. A private residence, Ji Chenli only came once in her previous life.
At that time, she didn’t know who said that Ming Lang loves to drink soup, so she specially bought a Cantonese cookbook to learn how to make soup. It was Han Xinyuan who opened the door for her in home clothes, with wet hair draped over his shoulders, he looked more like a hostess than Ji Chenli, Ji Chenli threw away the thermos pot of soup, and from then on Since then, I have never looked for boredom again, and the fuzzy Cantonese cookbook has also been put into the trash can.
Thinking about it carefully, there is actually nothing wrong with Ming Lang, she just doesn’t love herself.
When Ji Chenli recalled his bitter past, he felt a little bit of sympathy for Minghong, who was stalked by someone he didn’t love, and it was thanks to Minghong’s self-cultivation that he didn’t collapse.
The place where I couldn’t enter the door until my death in the previous life, this life came so easily, the minimalist decoration style inside the house is the same as what Ji Chenli accidentally glimpsed through the crack of the door in the last life, the main color is white, and the furniture is all sharp and tough The style is very similar to Ming Lang’s usual taste.
Ji Chenli didn’t know what kind of medicine was sold in Minglang’s gourd, so he changed shoes with Minglang and went into the house to wait and see what happened. Before he could observe, Minglang slammed a key on the coffee table, “This is yours.”
“I do not want.”
“You don’t even ask what the key is?”
Ji Chenli was too lazy to play the game of respecting each other with Ming Lang, anyway, they had already torn their faces, it was meaningless to pretend to be calm at this time, so he asked coldly: “What exactly do you want to do?”
No, all the routines are wrong. According to the plot of the previous life, Ming Lang should hide from Ji Chenli as far as possible at this time. What is wrong with her and insists on getting close to her? I can’t do it all over again. Seeing that she was pitiful, God forcibly changed the plot to make her life complete, right?
Ming Lang didn’t answer Ji Chenli, but turned around and went into her study. A few minutes later, she brought out a thick stack of scripts and handed them to Ji Chenli. Ji Chenli looked at the script, it was a movie, she was so familiar with the movie, it was because of this movie that Ji Chenli became the top actress back then and became a smash hit.
“Out of reach”.
Ji Chenli was so overwhelmed with fear that she couldn’t breathe, she overturned the script in Minghong’s hand, and shouted hysterically: “I won’t act—”
