no crossing the line

"Jing Lian, how are you and the little girl?"

It has been almost a week since Jianqin moved into Ji Jinglian's house. Seeing that Ji Jinglian seemed to be in a good mood today, Qu Huayu took the initiative to ask about the situation - not because she was gossiping, but because she was really worried about her friend's character.

"How about what?"

Ji Jinglian looked up from the document, looking at Qu Yuyu inexplicably.

"Just how are you getting along! You didn't quarrel, did you?"

"Why are we arguing? We are all civilized people." Ji Jinglian glanced at her lightly, then turned her gaze back to the document in her hand, "Besides, she is pregnant, what do I care about with her?"

"..."

Well, it seems that she still feels that she is quite accommodating.

"Then what does she do at your house? The little girl stays in the house all day, won't she be suffocated by boredom?"

"I didn't stay in the house all day, and I went out for a walk after dinner." Ji Jinglian sketched a few strokes on the document with a pen, and answered Qu Huayu's question casually, "And she didn't even have time to write the paper, How can you be bored?"

"Thesis? My God, Jian Qin is too miserable. I still have to write a thesis after this. I will definitely postpone it."

Ji Jinglian rolled her eyes at her: "Don't compare you with others, when will you be willing to suffer?"

"Hey, I didn't expect you to have such a high opinion of her," Qu Huayu said in surprise, "It's so rare, hiss...you just said to go for a walk after dinner, did you accompany her?"

"Should a pregnant woman go out for a walk alone?" Ji Jinglian handed the edited document to Qu Wangyu, "I told you to check it again, and print it out if there are any typos."

"I asked Xiao Lin to check it! I will fine her when I go back."

Ji Jinglian glared at her: "I know how to get rid of the blame, you make less mistakes, as for rising so slowly? This time I wanted you to take my place directly, but now it's okay, let my mother airborne A down."

Qu Wangyu said indifferently: "Then, wouldn't it be good if I continue to be your assistant? It's also a promotion and a salary increase. I have you covering me at the top, so I can worry less. I'm not suitable to be the head of the department anyway."

"You put it lightly, the personnel department is such an important position."

"Okay, okay, it's useless to say these things now. There is nothing impossible for Auntie to do. Even if I have nothing wrong with me, this thing can't be done." Qu Huayu argued a few words, but his attitude He admitted his mistake very sincerely, "Of course, you are right, I really should be more careful in my work, and this kind of mistake will not be made again."

Ji Jinglian snorted coldly: "Anyway, you can always come up with new tricks for me."

"Oh, I don't want to either... Let's not talk about me, let's talk about your sister-in-law, you two seem to get along pretty well now."

"What sister-in-law? She and Ji Jingxi are not married." Ji Jinglian seemed very dissatisfied with this statement, "Also, do you care too much about Jian Qin?"

"Because I'm curious! I asked my mother and she didn't tell me, and she told me not to care about it."

"Aunt Zhang is right, don't be curious, go out."

Qu Huayu is Aunt Zhang's daughter, which is one of the reasons why she and Ji Jinglian have such a good relationship. They can be said to have grown up together since childhood.

"Okay, okay, it's fine if you don't want to say it, I just care about you."

Qu Huayu went out of the door with thoughts, Ji Jinglian glanced at the time, made sure that Jian Qin should have woken up and called her.

Because there is no one else in the family, Ji Jinglian will call Jian Qin regularly to confirm the situation, so as to avoid accidents for her.

In fact, it is more reasonable to ask a full-time housekeeping aunt to take care of Jian Qin when Ji Jinglian is not at home, but this proposal was opposed by Jian Qin.

To Ji Jinglian's surprise, the phone didn't get through this time.

Ji Jinglian's working hours are relatively free, and she also prefers to arrange her own time, so unlike ordinary employees who work from [-] to [-], she usually arrives at the company before [-]:[-] am, returns home around [-]:[-] noon, and goes to the office before [-]:[-] pm Go to work and leave work on time at five o'clock in the afternoon.

She cooks breakfast, lunch and three meals at home by herself, which is one of the reasons why Wang Juan assured her to take care of Jian Qin.The only thing Ji Jinglian wanted to change was to keep her breakfast warm before leaving. Jian Qin didn't get up that early, and she wasn't cruel enough to tell a pregnant woman to get up early.

So before leaving this morning, Ji Jinglian did not see Jian Qin.

The first call failed, Ji Jinglian immediately got up and walked out.The company is only about 10 minutes away from her home, and it doesn't take much effort to go back and forth. She explained the situation to Qu Wangyu immediately, and called Jian Qin's cell phone again after getting in the car.

Fortunately, this time the call was connected.

"Hey...Erica, I'm sorry, I was sleeping just now..."

Jian Qin's voice was a little hoarse and vague, and it really sounded like he hadn't woken up, but Ji Jinglian was keenly aware of something wrong.

"Have you been sleeping until now?"

"Well, I'm a little sleepy...Sorry, I didn't receive a call."

The relationship between the two is definitely not pleasant, but as Ji Jinglian said, we are all adults, and it is still possible to get along peacefully and politely.

"What's wrong with you?"

The results of Jian Qin's prenatal examination are not bad. Although she didn't get a good rest some time ago, she is young and has no serious health problems, so all indicators are within the normal range.

But judging by the complexion alone, Jian Qin has never been good, and it's not that Ji Jinglian has never considered the possibility that she will be sick during this period of time.

"Probably not, it's just a little...ahem..."

"You coughed." Ji Jinglian used declarative sentences instead of interrogative sentences, "I'm already on my way home."

"No, I'm fine. I may have caught a cold last night. I'll just take some medicine—"

Ji Jinglian's voice sank: "Do you know that you are pregnant? Don't take medicine indiscriminately. I will talk about it when I go back."

After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone and stepped on the gas pedal.

"Cough cough..."

Jian Qin glanced at the phone that had been hung up, and found that it was past ten o'clock.She went to bed early last night because she was a little tired, and she counted that she had slept for twelve hours.It's just that sleep doesn't make it easier for her. The itchy throat, heavy brain, and blocked nose are all telling her that she is sick.

Too careless.

Jian Qin's first reaction after realizing this was uneasiness.

She originally didn't like to cause trouble for others, not to mention that the person who is in trouble now is Ji Jinglian.Although the two of them have been together for a week, although they are no longer tense, it is far from being harmonious.Apart from eating and taking walks, they hardly interacted with each other. Even though Jian Qin's opinion of Ji Jinglian changed a lot because of Ji Jinglian's thoughtful care, he never expected to "cohabit" with her for a long time.

Precisely because she felt that she would not live here for a long time and wanted to be alone, Jian Qin rejected Ji Jinglian's proposal to hire her a housekeeping aunt on weekdays.She didn't forget that Ji Jinglian had a cleanliness habit and didn't like being intruded into her private space, so she wanted to try not to cause trouble to the other party.

What Jian Qin didn't expect was that Ji Jinglian not only went home to cook at noon every day, but also called her at noon and afternoon, and asked her to set herself as the emergency contact on the phone.

The so-called meticulous care of her was basically done by Ji Jinglian, and it has to be admitted that although Ji Jinglian's attitude was very blunt and indifferent, she was basically meticulous in every aspect——Ji Jinglian Even go for a walk with her.

She couldn't figure it out—what did Aunt Wang say about Ji Jinglian, so that Ji Jinglian could be so interested in her...or the child in her womb?
