have a barbarian wife

Chapter 59 No Other Bribes Accepted

After she glanced, a look of sadness flashed in her eyes, and then she put the phone back in her pocket as if nothing had happened, and walked to her desk.

Ling Jue looked up at her, but said nothing.

Will she...will she go?
On the last day of the year, the weather in Yucheng was extremely cold. After standing in the garden for a while, Qin Nanjun shivered from the cold.

"Young Madam, come in quickly, it's very cold outside!"

Qin Nanjun responded, put the watering can aside, shrank his hands, and couldn't help sighing, "Only this plum blossom can withstand such severe cold."

"Young Madam, you should leave it to me to water the flowers in the future. If your body is frozen..."

"I'm not that weak." Qin Nanjun smiled and patted Aunt Lin's shoulder and walked back to the living room.

Aunt Lin stood where she was, her face was twisted together in an instant, and she felt that the place Qin Nanjun had photographed was already red and swollen!

Why is the young lady so vigorous? !

"Did Jueer come back with you?" The old fox and grandma couldn't help asking when they saw Qin Nanjun sitting alone on the sofa in the living room after they went downstairs.

"He said he had other things to do and would probably be back at night."

Ling Xiaotian and grandma looked at each other, they seemed to know where Ling Jue had gone.

"Jue'er is not at home, Xiao Nanjun must be very lonely, right?" Grandma walked up to Qin Nanjun and sat down, asking involuntarily.

Qin Nanjun raised his eyebrows, but she didn't feel anything.

"It's okay, grandpa, grandma and Xiao Nanjun celebrate the new year together tonight!"

She originally wanted to go out with Ling Jue to join in the fun, but Ling Jue didn't know where to go, so she had no choice but to give up. The New Year's Eve is just for the atmosphere, even if it is the last day of the year, it is actually normal for her No difference.only--

"Xiao Nanjun, after dinner, let's play mahjong together? Grandpa, grandma and mother-in-law, plus you just make a table together! In France, Xinyu's cold son is super boring and doesn't play with me. I really haven't played for a long time. Mahjong is over! Xiao Nan——" Grandma looked at Qin Nanjun who was inexplicably absorbed, and couldn't help frowning slightly, "Xiao Nanjun! What are you thinking!"

"Ah?" Qin Nanjun was frightened back to his senses by his grandmother's scream, and then hurriedly replied, "Okay."

Grandma frowned, took a deep breath, and then sighed heavily, "Sure enough, Jue'er is not at home, and you have lost even your soul."

"..."

Qin Nanjun blushed, what does this have to do with Ling Jue's presence?She wanted to be quiet when he wasn't there.

Time passed by every minute, whether it was eating dinner, or helping Aunt Lin clean up the table, or finally sitting on the mahjong table, she was always out of her mind, no matter how playful grandma was at this moment. Care about it.

"Xiao Nanjun, what's the matter with you?"

"what?"

"Ah, what! Look at your face, everything you think is written on it, do you think you can hide from grandma my piercing eyes?"

"..." Qin Nanjun pursed his lips. Was she that obvious?
"Really, aren't you just worried that Jue'er will mess around outside? Don't worry, he won't." Grandma said with a look of seeing through Qin Nanjun's thoughts.

"..." Qin Nanjun was really helpless. Normally, she would be amused by her grandma's innocence at the moment, but now...she really can't laugh.

"Is there something wrong?" Ling Xiaotian asked.

Wang Shu snorted softly, and said coldly, "This is the attitude when talking to the elders. It was really taught by that woman."

Qin Nanjun glanced at Wang Shu upon hearing the sound. She knew that the main reason why Wang Shu didn't like her was her mother, but she didn't know what kind of grievances there were between her and her mother.

After getting up, she couldn't sit still.

"Grandma, I have something to go out, you can play."

She couldn't sit still, she knew she shouldn't go, she could bear it all day, she kept persuading herself to let go, to forget, obviously, she worked hard to get along with Ling Jue, like For couples who really don't have any grievances...

She thinks that Ling Jue is actually quite an attractive man, and her heart is always pounding because of his actions and words, and she doesn't even hate his touching her, but...she knows This relationship is only based on the fact that they are husband and wife.

After hailing a taxi, she got in. She didn't think about whether Song Lisheng would still sit in the cafe, because the answer... was so obvious.

She was just thinking desperately, why she couldn't sit still, why she still went...

When the clock passed ten o'clock, the taxi stopped at the entrance of the Old Movie Cafe, and Qin Nanjun looked at the cafe through the car window...

"Miss?"

Qin Nanjun paid the money and got out of the car. She wrapped herself in the overcoat, and the cold air penetrated into her nose, which made her nose tingle.

Pushing open the door, she walked in.

"Welcome to the old movie cafe, may I ask you to—" The order lady in front of the stage paused when she saw Qin Nanjun. Obviously, she remembered Qin Nanjun.

"I... looking for someone." Qin Nanjun said lightly.

"Is it Mr. Song?" Miss Order was obviously excited, although Qin Nanjun didn't know what she was happy about.

"...Well, he—'

"Mr. Song is right there, he has been sitting there for a long time! Miss, you are finally here!"

There are quite a few people in the cafe at the moment, and most of them are here to wait for the New Year's bell to ring and watch the large-scale fireworks.

Looking out from this cafe, there should be a good perspective.

Following the direction the waiter pointed, Qin Nanjun looked over...

He was leaning on the sofa with his legs crossed, and a pair of red phoenix eyes silently looked out of the cafe. The faint yellow light shone on his side face, as if the shadows of the whole world were shrouded, making people see ...heartache.

Song Lisheng...it shouldn't be like this.

Song Lisheng would not force her to do things she didn't want to do, would not drug her in order to get her, would not do sneaky things in order to win a case...

Qin Nanjun knew very well what kind of person he was.

and so……

When such a strange Song Lisheng stood in front of her, she would be so uncomfortable that she could not breathe.

She knew...it was a bad woman named Qin Nanjun who pushed him to this point.

When she came back to her senses, she had already walked to him and sat down, "What are you looking at?"

When Song Lisheng saw her, he didn't have any surprises or waves in his eyes. He still looked at the scenery outside the cafe and said calmly, "It's snowing."

Qin Nanjun followed his gaze and saw snowflakes falling on the glass, turning into mist-like moisture.

It turned out that it was snowing, no wonder it was so cold.

"I thought you wouldn't come." Song Lisheng said lightly.

"Miss, your coffee, caramel macchiato, and this snack is for you." The waiter left after delivering the things, Qin Nanjun could clearly see the ambiguous smile in her eyes.

Everyone wants to see two people who love each other stay together, even a strange waiter.

"The taste has changed." The tone was still calm and indifferent.

"...I still like to drink something sweeter."

Song Lisheng smiled softly, "Master Ling made you change, right?"

"..."

Qin Nanjun's hand holding the coffee was a little stiff.

"But to my surprise, on New Year's Eve, why did he let you out alone to date your ex-boyfriend?"

"...if that's all you want to say, then I'm leaving."

"Just kidding." Song Lisheng pulled her arm down, and he looked at her with a chuckle, "It's not a lover, it's still a friend."

friend……

Qin Nanjun looked at him in astonishment. Although he said that, he didn't mean anything seriously.

Also...how could they be friends?

"I've thought about it for the past few days. Lin Su is right, and you are right. Qin Nanjun is no longer the former Qin Nanjun, but Song Lisheng seems to have always been the former Song Lisheng. He is ridiculously stupid. .”

"Do not say it that way……"

"I've always been the only one who is stubborn about this relationship. Am I right?" Song Lisheng took a sip of his coffee, and then put it down. It's because you were stuck on the reason why you left me, and always felt that you had some unavoidable reasons, but now that you think about it... so what if it's a big reason?"

"Even if you are really willing to tell me, so what? Just tell me again that I am never the first in your heart. "

"In your heart, there are too many things that are more important than Song Lisheng."

Qin Nanjun closed his eyes, just silently looking at the coffee cup in front of him.

Seeing that she was silent, Song Lisheng took out a small gift box from his pocket and put it in front of her, "I bought it before I went abroad. I was afraid to scare you back then, so I left before I had time to put it on for you. Now Looking back, I feel really stupid."

Qin Nanjun looked at the exquisite little gift box in front of him.

She vaguely guessed what it was...

"You're right. A marriage without love can survive. Look...can't you be so natural and intimate in another man's arms?"

"Take this thing back, I can't—"

"I didn't plan to give it to you anymore, I'm not stupid?" Song Lisheng threw that exquisite ring into the coffee, splashing a bunch of water!
Qin Nanjun's heart "thumped" and sank.

Song Lisheng casually threw the empty exquisite gift box into the wastebasket beside him. He looked at Qin Nanjun, and a slight smile flashed across his beautiful phoenix eyes, "Why this expression?"

Qin Nanjun twitched the corner of his mouth, "It should have been done long ago, but it's a pity to throw it away."

Song Lisheng fixedly looked at the face of the woman who didn't realize how stiff her expression was, and picked up a knife and fork to cut the snacks that the waiter kindly brought up, "I remember you don't like cheese very much, I ate it."

"……kindness."

Qin Nanjun responded, glanced at Song Lisheng, she stood up, "There is nothing else, I'm going back."

"Stay with me a little longer."

"..."

"I want to hear the sound of that big clock striking zero." Song Lisheng looked at her and smiled, "One last time."

Qin Nanjun pursed his lips and sat down.

They were all leaning on the sofa, silently looking at the dark night outside the window. Countless colorful lights decorated this cold night. Snowflakes fluttered like cotton wool, falling playfully on the hair, shoulders, and palms of passers-by.

The usually quiet cafe is now filled with the voices of guests welcoming the new year, not to mention the crowds of pedestrians outside the cafe waiting for the New Year’s bell to ring. The noisy frolicking seems to warm up this cold night.

From the window, she could see all kinds of people gathered together, shoulder to shoulder, hand in hand, leaning against each other, and she could also see... Song Lisheng's quiet face.

All the noise slowly disappeared, and the "tick tock" sound of the wall clock on the wall became louder and louder, and she knew that this was probably the end.

With the ringing of the end of the year, everything between her and Song Lisheng will pass away, and everything between them will be buried in the deepest part of her heart, and will never be opened easily in the future.
