C114 A Familiar Voice

He knew the woman too well.

After Li Nan finished speaking, he left. Xia Jing's emotions, on the other hand, did not calm down for a long time.

She knew that An An was doing this for her own good.

But she...

The phone suddenly rang. Xia Jing woke up from a dream and took the phone to take a look. It was an unknown number.

She was about to hang up, but for some reason, or a special premonition, she pressed the answer button.

There was no movement for about three seconds. Xia Jing thought that it was a harassment call and was about to hang up when a gentle voice came: "Xiao Jing."

Xia Jing's eyes widened and she froze on the spot.

She was very familiar with this voice.

"Brother... Brother Lin Xiu?" She was stunned for a long time before she finally spoke with a trembling voice.

Last time, when Song Yi told her that Lin Xiu would contact her, she did not believe him at first, but she did not expect him to really contact her.

She had hurt him so many times, yet he did not blame her?

"Why do you still call me that? Didn't you say that you won't call me brother?" A low laughter came from the other side. Xia Jing could almost see his handsome face under the sunlight through the laughter.

That person always had light on him. It was so warm and bright.

However, he was pushed into the abyss and darkness again and again.

Xia Jing sniffed, "Alright, I won't call you brother, Lin... Xiu, are your legs ready?"

Song Yi had told her that his leg had been treated abroad and had almost recovered.

She knew that Song Yi would not lie to her, but she still wanted to personally confirm it with Lin Xiu.

"Yes." The person on the other side responded softly. There was no movement for a long time, and Xia Jing did not know what to say. Just as she was about to open her mouth, Lin Xiu chuckled softly. "Looks like Xiao Jing cares a lot about my legs."

Xia Jing felt a little awkward when she heard his words, but when she thought about it carefully, she felt that it was not awkward at all. She forced a smile on her face. "I've always been very worried about you. It's so good that you're fine. However, when did you come back to China? Why did you only contact me now?"

She had been trying to contact him for a long time when he had been abroad, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not get in touch with him.

"I was afraid that you would be worried, so I didn't dare to contact you. I didn't expect that my Xiao Jing would still be worried." Lin Xiu sighed heavily.

Xia Jing's heart tightened when she heard Lin Xiu's name, but then she thought about what kind of person Lin Xiu was. They grew up together. It might not be too much for him to say something like that.

"I thought you wouldn't contact me again." The corner of her mouth twitched bitterly.

Even though Lin Xiu did not care about some things with her, she still could not let go of them in her heart.

"Why do you think that? Before I left, I told you that I would definitely come back. Since I would come back, why wouldn't I contact you? Of course, I'm very sorry that I lost contact with you during this period of time. Xiao Jing, you won't blame me because of this, right?" Lin Xiu's voice was a little anxious, but it also seemed to be a little deliberate.

"Of course, I won't blame you. After all, what right do I have to blame you?" Xia Jing lowered her head and held the phone tightly, her voice much softer.

Lin Xiu heard her clearly and said quietly, "Xiao Jing, just let the past be the past. We won't mention it anymore, okay?"

There was no point in mentioning it again. People had to look forward to the future when they were still alive.

"You... Do you really not mind about what happened in the past?" Even though Lin Xiu was a very generous person, he really did not mind that she had hurt him time and time again. Did he really pretend that nothing had happened?

That day at the Civil Affairs Bureau, she left him in his wheelchair without saying a word. She left with determination and did not think about his feelings at all.

Did he really not hate her?

"There are too many things that have happened in the past. Xiao Jing, I hope, what do you think I mind?" Lin Xiu laughed out loud. "I've said it before. What happened in the past is already in the past, after all. As long as we don't keep it to ourselves, it is as if nothing has happened. Xiao Jing and I can go back to what we were before, right?"

They were childhood sweethearts, and there was nothing to guess about them.

Xia Jing knew which period of time he was talking about, so she suddenly fell silent.

After experiencing so many things, how could she possibly go back?

The cruelty of reality was that there were many things that one could not start over even if they did not want to happen.

There was no medicine for regret in this world. She always felt guilty towards Lin Xiu.

"Oh right, you just asked me if my leg is healed. I seemed to have forgotten to answer you. My leg has completely recovered, and my limbs are intact. Xiao Jing, are you happy for me?"

"Of course, of course I feel happy for you." Xia Jing was so happy that she was choking with tears. "I know the heavens won't be so cruel to you."

He was originally an influential person in the school. In the eyes of his parents and teachers, he was a good model for an outstanding child. He should have an enviable life. He should not have suffered so much pain and suffered so many setbacks.

Of course, if he did not know her, perhaps his life would have been as smooth sailing as he had imagined.

Because all his bad luck was brought to him by her.

"I don't need the heavens to do anything to me. I just need you to be happy for me." Lin Xiu seemed to be very happy as well. When he spoke, the corners of his mouth would always curl up into an enigmatic smile.

"You... Where are you now?" Xia Jing thought about it. There were some things that were better left unsaid after meeting Lin Xiu.

Moreover, she would only know if his leg had recovered after she met him.

"I'm in the country, but it's a pity that I'm not in the same city as you. I will probably go to your city soon. Wait for me. I will come and find you."

Lin Xiu spoke very naturally, but Xia Jing felt that there was something else hidden in his words.

Perhaps she was overthinking it, but she shook her head and asked again: "Aren't you in C City? Then, which city are you in? If you don't have time, maybe I can go over and see you."

She really felt too guilty towards Lin Xiu. She had not been able to contact him before, but now that she had finally gotten in touch with him, she had to apologize to him in front of him.

She was too selfish in the past.

..." Xiao Jing, are you in a hurry to see me?" Lin Xiu seemed to be surprised. After a long silence, he suddenly asked.

Xia Jing, on the other hand, felt embarrassed by his question. "If it's not convenient for you, then forget it."

There were some things that Lin Xiu would say if he was willing to. In fact, he would say them even if she did not ask.

Since he did not want to say it, she would not force him.

"It's not that it's inconvenient, it's just..." Although it was not inconvenient for him to say it, Lin Xiu's tone was clearly a little awkward. "I have some things to do for the time being. When I'm done, I will come and find you as soon as possible. "

"Alright." Xia Jing did not say anything else.

She was very tired during this period of time, so it would be good for her to rest for a while.

"Oh right, I saw the news earlier. Did you and Shen Ruo Bai break off the engagement?" Xia Jing had thought that since Lin Xiu was so smart, he would definitely avoid this topic.

However, to her surprise, he actually asked about her and Shen Ruo Bai breaking off the engagement as if nothing had happened.

Actually, before the engagement with Shen Ruo Bai, Uncle Lin had already told her that she and Lin Xiu actually had a verbal engagement.

In other words, her engagement with Shen Ruo Bai was not fair to Lin Xiu.

Xia Jing was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.

However, she felt that it was inappropriate, so she could only bite the bullet and reply, "Yes."

"What reason?" Lin Xiu's voice became slightly cold.

"I... I don't want to mention him." Xia Jing stood by the window with her head lowered. She looked down at the busy street below the tall building. The air pressure was extremely low.

"Xiao Jing, don't you always like him?" Lin Xiu chuckled softly. "Besides, I can tell that Shen Ruo Bai also has feelings for you. Since he has already announced to all the media that you are his fiancée and suddenly rescinded the engagement with you, it doesn't seem very reasonable, does it? "

He deliberately called her in advance to confirm whether the engagement was real or fake.

Although Song Yi was telling the truth, he knew Xia Jing better. It would be safer for him to personally confirm it with her.

"What's so unreasonable?!" Xia Jing did not want to lose her temper, especially when the other party was Lin Xiu. However, after being interrogated by Lin Xiu again and again, she could not help but ask, "I have nothing to do with Shen Ruo Bai anymore. Please don't mention him in front of me in the future, okay?"

After saying that, she put down her phone fiercely, and two crystal clear tears rolled down her cheeks.

Why? Because he was everywhere, and everyone had to mention him to her.

Could there be that person in her world?

"I'm sorry." Lin Xiu did not hang up even after the phone had been on for a long time. Instead, he said sorry after a long time.

Xia Jing closed her eyes. "I don't blame you. There are some things I want to tell you, but it seems that I can only see you after you're done. In that case, I won't disturb you now."

As Xia Jing spoke, she picked up her phone and fiercely pressed the hang-up button.

On the other side of the phone, Lin Xiu heard the beeping sound of the phone being cut off. His fingers held the phone very tightly.

Not knowing if it was because of the words that Xia Jing had asked Li Nan to pass on to her, or because Su An suddenly thought it through, but when she got off work, Su An, who hadn't paid attention to Xia Jing for a few days, suddenly came to Xia Jing's office again.

"It's time to get off work." Su An bent two fingers and knocked on the door of Xia Jing's office. Xia Jing raised her head in shock and looked at her. "Anan?"

"Hey, are you so surprised to see me?" Su An walked over and looked at the mess of documents on her table. She started to clean them up for her. "It's time to get off work. Go back and rest early. It's easy for women to get old if they work overtime."

There were two black lines on Xia Jing's forehead: "An An, are you trying to say that I'm old?"
