I go north, you go south

Chapter 56 The Covenant
Nan Zishu casually tossed off his shoes, followed the light coming in from the window, walked barefoot to the kitchen door, and took out a can of beer from the refrigerator.

She walked back to her bedroom and sat down directly on the floor by the window.

She drank a few sips of cold beer, which made her sober up a bit.

Nan Zishu took a deep breath and picked up the mobile phone beside him. The screen that suddenly turned on gave off a particularly dazzling light in the dark, becoming the only light source in the room.

She subconsciously squinted her eyes and tried to adapt to the strong light, and found the number in the address book that she had looked at for a long time yesterday.

As soon as the call was dialed, Nan Zishu didn't even think about how to speak, and immediately answered, "Zishu?"

"Hello, Ling Bei." After making a sound, Nan Zishu realized that his voice was already unbearably hoarse.

"What's wrong with you? Are you crying!?" Ling Bei's words on the other side of the phone were tinged with anxiety.

As soon as he heard Ling Bei's tone, Nan Zishu's hard-earned psychological defense was smashed to pieces in an instant.

She didn't know how to start this conversation at all.

"Should the funding application from the hospital be approved?" Ling Bei listened to Nan Zishu's long silence, but said it for her very accurately.

Nan Zishu also knew that Ling Bei had always been able to read her thoughts very accurately, so he took another deep breath, tried to stabilize his mind, and chose to ask him: "Ling Bei, I want to know why you want to help me? "

Hearing this, Ling Bei was also silent for a rare moment.

"Zishu, I think," when Ling Bei spoke again, he had some careful consideration: "At least we can be considered friends, right?"

"So this is Boss Ling's kindness between friends?" Nan Zishu's tone was a bit strange.

The title "Mr. Ling" is particularly harsh in the hazy relationship between the two.

Ling Bei fell into silence again. After a while, he still said in a cautious tone: "Zi Shu, I think we need to meet and have a good talk."

"Yes." This time, Nan Zishu unexpectedly answered simply and calmly.

For some reason, Nan Zishu felt that when he really talked to Ling Bei again, he was not as hysterical as he imagined.

"My mother already knew about the sponsorship, but she didn't know that the sponsor was you." Nan Zishu felt that she gradually regained her normal voice and emotions, "She said she wanted to meet the sponsor and express her gratitude to him in person .

"Do you have time this Saturday? We can make an appointment on that day too."

Hearing what Nan Zishu said, Ling Bei on the phone seemed relieved: "Of course, it's a great honor."

After hanging up the phone, Nan Zishu's heart that had been stuck for a long time seemed to suddenly become much lighter.

"Maybe you have to tie the bell to untie it, and you can't escape." Nan Zishu murmured to himself.

Although I still don't know where this relationship will go, but a little expectation is better than being alone.

At this moment in Jinchuan's apartment, Ling Bei was flipping through the photos stored in the camera's memory card.

The camera has been left unused for so long that it is unlikely to function properly even after repairs.Ling Bei took out the memory card inside and backed up all the photos about Nan Zishu.

After downloading the photos, Ling Bei closed the computer, and his eyes unconsciously fell on the half box of spices placed on the corner of the desk.

Originally, I asked my mother to come to find a chance to give it to Nan Zishu, but because she moved in a few days ago, I opened it in advance and let her try it.
