Strongest Worker

Li Qing went back to the back house.

Opening the bedroom door, Li Qing walked in gently. The bedside lamp was on, and the dim yellow light poured on Lin Qiuqiu's pretty white cheeks, as warm as jade. She had taken a bath, wrapped in a nightgown, lying on her back on the bed, with a jade hand on her bulging lower abdomen, her eyes slightly closed, and fell asleep.

Under the slender jade neck was a small section of white collarbone, and the creamy skin appeared under the collar of the Nightgown, which made Li Qing lose his mind and stared at it for a while.

Taking a breath, Li Qingsheng stepped back for fear of waking the sleeping beauty, and then turned around to leave.

"Ah... You're back?"

Suddenly soft words came from behind. Li Qing's body stagnated, suddenly turned around and smiled at the corners of her mouth: "wake you up? Keep sleeping. I'm next door. Call me if you have anything."

Lin Qiuqiu blinked her beautiful eyes: "do you want to separate?"

"Ah?" Li Qing was startled and waved his hand again and again. "No, man Xuan said today. You'd better sleep alone now. What if I'm dishonest and hurt you?"

Sipping her lips, Lin Qiuqiu whispered, "don't go, will you accompany me tonight? I haven't seen you for a long time."

After hesitating for a while, Li Qing nodded: "OK, I miss you too. I just don't want to go. Wait for me to take a shower and come back later."

Li Qing took a cold bath in the bathroom, wrapped his bathrobe and sat by the bed. Lin Qiuqiu encircles him from behind, burying his whole face on his back and breathing deeply.

The room was quiet. At that moment, Li Qing felt like she had roots and was closely connected with Lin Qiuqiu. Two people are like one. The fetters of life are so deep that it seems that nothing can separate the two anymore.

"It's late, go to bed early." Li Qing actually has a lot to say, but considering Lin Qiuqiu's physical condition, she still didn't speak.

Two people hugged each other and lay on the bed. Li Qing reached out to turn off the bedside lamp and snuggled up with Lin Qiuqiu to sleep slowly.

In her sleep, Li Qing felt that someone was touching her body. Her movements were very light and soft. She seemed afraid to wake him up.

"What are you doing?" Li Qing grabbed the restless soft hand, gently put it on his chest, opened his eyes and smiled, "don't sleep in the middle of the night, tease your man, believe it or not, I ate you in one bite."

Under the hazy night, Lin Qiuqiu's eyes are bright, like the bright stars in the night sky, warm, charming and distant.

"Li Qing, I don't want to lose you anymore."

"I know." Li Qing leaned close and kissed the soft lip

Li Qing's mood is so peaceful and quiet. At the moment, he was unaware that the more gloomy night was slowly enveloping and swallowing him.

Darkness will come again

Five days later, when Li Qing sent Lin Qiuqiu to the Gangbei hospital for labor, and then drove back, a strange visitor came to the Li family residence.

At that time, Li Xiaoman was playing in the yard. She squatted on the ground, turned the box over, and then poked the dark cricket with a straw.

"Jump, jump." Xiaoman shouted, "jump quickly."

Uncle Zhang smiled and couldn't close his mouth: "you girl, how can you like insects? The young ladies of other people have to scream when they see this kind of thing."

"Don't compare me with those little fools." Li Xiaoman rolled his eyes, then lowered his head and continued to tease the cricket. "I've kept it for a week. I'll give it food and drink. I'm so disobedient... Do you jump? If you don't jump, I'll trample you to death!"

The cricket seemed to feel it, made a noise, and immediately jumped up and rushed to a Li family bodyguard standing by the roadside.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" Li Xiaoman yelled at the bodyguard, who was startled and staggered back several steps.

"Ah!" Xiaoman exclaimed, standing where he was, his face turning blue.

The bodyguard looked flustered and raised his feet. In an instant, the whole face was white as paper. Just too flustered, the cricket had stepped into a pool of mud at his feet.

"Miss, miss, calm down..." the bodyguard leaned over in fear, "I'm wrong, I'm wrong..."

"Dead? You trampled it to death, I raised it for a week, and you trampled it to death..." Xiaoman's mouth tilted, as if he could shed tears the next moment.

The bodyguard bowed and almost knelt down for Li Xiaoman. Who wants to work hard in the Li family and unexpectedly encounter this disaster. Although he is just a little cricket, the person he provokes is the sister of the Li family owner!

"Forget it." when Li Xiaoman saw the frightened look of the bodyguard, he suddenly pursed his mouth and put his hands. "It's him jumping around looking for death, and I can't blame you."

"Thank you, miss, thank you!" the bodyguard nodded like a chicken pecking rice like an amnesty.

Uncle Zhang smiled and nodded: "it's like the Miss Li family."

"Alas, I'd better keep a little turtle. At least I can climb slowly and catch it." Li Xiaoman clenched his fist. "Yes, it's good to catch it..."

"Big brother, can you help me bury it?" Xiaoman suddenly raised his head, blinked his big eyes, pitifully looked at the helpless bodyguard, "it's buried behind the small trees. I can't bear to bury it myself..."

The bodyguard was stunned and immediately nodded, "OK."

When the voice fell, he half knelt down, picked up the dirt and ran behind the grove.

Just then, the doorbell rang. Xiao man, who had just returned with a depressed face, suddenly beamed: "brother is back!"

She ran to the door excitedly and planned to welcome Li Qing home. But a bodyguard in black hurried out of the concierge and whispered, "Miss, it's not the owner coming back."

"Ah?" the smiling face suddenly became bitter. Li Xiaoman said discontentedly, "who is that?"

"Er... This..." the bodyguard's face changed. "Miss, please step back. I'm going to open the door."

Zhang Bo obviously felt something wrong too. He got up and went to Xiaoman and pulled her aside: "what's the matter?"

"It's an outsider. I haven't seen it." the bodyguard in Black opened the door. When they looked out, they saw an old man in his fifties.

The old man was dressed in rather plain, gray cloth clothes and a pair of yellow rubber shoes under his feet. His face was covered with deep wrinkles, his lips were shriveled, and a pair of black framed glasses stood on the bridge of his nose. One lens was missing and tangled with tape. The other good lens was gray, as if covered with a layer of ash, but it just covered the old man's cloudy eyes. His hair was gray and his forehead was slightly bald, giving the impression of malaise and weakness as a whole.

"Where's Li Qing?" the old man asked Li Qing directly as soon as he opened his mouth. His voice was hoarse and dry, which made people sound very uncomfortable.

Uncle Zhang looked puzzled: "who are you?"

"Is Li Qing all right?"

Uncle Zhang nodded: "the owner is very good, you..."

"Where is he? I want to see him." the old man interrupted Uncle Zhang and said directly.

Li Xiaoman looked up and shouted, "my brother is out. He's not here today."

"Are you li Qing's sister?" the old man looked at Li Xiaoman in surprise. "It's nice to be young."

The tone was light and light, but there was a strange feeling of loss.

Zhang Bo couldn't figure out the origin of the old man. He quickly pulled Li Xiaoman behind him and said with a smile: "brother, if you have any difficulties, just say it. The owner has done a lot of good deeds over the years. Please go to the foundation for help. At present, the Li family is very busy. The owner has a lot of things. I'm afraid it's hard to find time to see you."

"So, he has nothing at all?" the old man's voice was filled with slight regret and immediately shook his head. "No, I'm not a beggar who comes to beg for money. I have something important to see Li Qing. Isn't he in Li's residence?"

Zhang Bo said, "the owner has gone out and hasn't come back yet."

The old man nodded, "when will he be back?"

The bodyguard on one side wanted to say that Li Qing would come back soon, but Zhang Bo stopped him with his eyes. Zhang bobi was an old and refined man. He immediately smiled and said, "it's not sure. We servants don't know about the master. According to the past situation, it's common not to come back at night. Why don't you leave a note and let me inform the master when he comes back?"

"No," the old man waved. "I'll wait for him here."

Zhang Bo was slightly stunned and said, "why don't you come in and wait, brother?"

"No," the old man waved again, "just here."

When the voice fell, the old man seemed very uncertain and asked, "Li Qing... He really hasn't changed at all?"

Zhang Bo didn't know, so, "what do you mean?"

"For example..." the old man pondered for a moment, then pointed to himself, "I'm so old."

"Ha ha ha." Uncle Zhang grinned, but he began to wonder whether the man in front of him should be a psycho?

"Brother, our Li family leader is less than 30 this year. It's a strong time. How can he be as old as you."

"Oh." the old man nodded and looked very disappointed.

The old man squatted down in front of the door of Li's residence. He seemed to ignore the hot door in the sun, recline and sit there in silence.

The bodyguard on one side spread his hands to Zhang Bo, trying to ask his advice. Uncle Zhang gave a wary look and asked the bodyguards to prepare.

Zhang Bo was still worried. He poked his head out of the door, glanced at the snake skin pocket at his feet, and then smiled and asked, "brother, where are you from?"

"Longxi." the old man replied lightly, "Li Qing knew me well before. If only you could call him and say it. My name is Zhao."
