Love After Marriage - Chapter 183
Chapter 183 I’ve Been Asleep for Too Long
Ji Baining slowly opened her hazy eyes at the entrance. She looked at the alarm clock on the bedside table and hurriedly got up and walked out of the room.
“Sorry, I got up late!” Ji Baining looked at Ah Lin and said.
“It’s fine. If you’re not feeling well, you can ask for leave!” Ah Lin smiled and said.
“No need, I can do it!” Ji Baining looked at Ah Lin firmly and nodded.
After staying at the Ah Lin Family for a day, Ji Baining planned to travel.
But Ah Lin, tell her that there is a resort at the entrance of the rock. The environment there is very good, so I want her to take a look over there.
Ji Baining liked this resort at first glance, so he decided to stay. However, she didn’t have much money with her.
She was very hesitant. She did not want to go home, but she did not have that much money to stay at the resort. It was impossible for her to stay at someone else’s house!
Ah Lin saw the hesitation in her heart and asked her if she had encountered any trouble!
She told Ah Lin about her troubles, and in the end, Ah Lin came up with a way to make the best of both worlds.
Ah Lin wanted Ji Baining to work in the resort. This way, he could stay here and be rich. Why not?
Ji Baining felt that what Ah Lin said was feasible, so he nodded in agreement.
Actually, Ah Lin didn’t tell Ji Baining that the resort was built by him and a few friends. He was also a shareholder.
After spending these few days together, Ah Lin clearly knew his intentions. He fell in love with Ji Baining at first sight.
Because he liked it, he would observe the other party’s emotions and details. He saw that Ji Baining would occasionally get distracted, and his eyes would always reveal sadness. Several times, he wanted to hold Ji Baining in his arms and comfort her, “Let bygones be bygones. The future is the most important thing!”
However, Ah Lin was afraid that his actions would frighten Ji Baining, so he didn’t do anything in the end.
Ji Baining trotted to the resort and watched all of this with his eyes closed. There was unprecedented peace and belonging in his heart, as if he had found something he had always yearned for.
“Hey, newcomer, you’re late again today!” A long-faced man walked out of the hall of the resort and asked.
“Sorry, I’m late again!” Ji Baining said embarrassedly.
“Next time, don’t be late again. The company has its own rules, and the school has its own rules. Everyone is like you one day. How can you be like that?” The man said meaningfully.
If not for Ah Lin’s introduction, she would have been chased away long ago.
“I know!” Ji Baining nodded.
The man glanced at her and did not say anything. He raised his foot and walked towards the distant beach.
Ji Baining looked at the man’s back as a trace of determination flashed through his eyes. In the future, she couldn’t be late anymore. She wanted to use everything she had learned at school.
Ji Baining came to the hall and called her teacher. She said that she would prepare her graduation thesis and attend the prom.
Head teacher told her about Gu Zihao’s visit to the school. Ji Baining only said one thing after hearing this, asking the teacher not to reveal her number and whereabouts.
Although Head teacher did not know what had happened to Ji Baining, as long as he handed in his paper on time, everything would be easy to discuss.
After Ji Baining hung up the phone, the corner of his lips curled into a cold smile and he went to the school to look for her!
Don’t tell me you want to hit her again!
Ji Baining shook his head. A cold look flashed in his eyes. Gu Zihao and Gu Ziming owe me something. One day, they will pay me back!
“Ji Baining, clean the corridor and room!” Said Liu Meiyan, the manager of the resort.
As her name suggested, her beautiful face attracted countless people. Her pair of watery eyes seemed to speak. Her picturesque eyebrows, sexy and delicate nose stood there like carvings. Her small cherry-like mouth made people want to taste it.
Her exquisite figure was perfectly displayed in professional clothes.
“Good–” If Ji Baining had looked at him with disdain in the past, her mentality would have slowly changed after the incident with Gu Zihao. She was no longer as bullying as before.
At this moment, she also understood that the reason why she was able to walk horizontally in school was because of Tang Luoxin.
In the real world, there were very few people who didn’t wear colored glasses.
Back then, after Tang Luoxin’s family went bankrupt, what happened to her was a typical example.
Afterwards, if it wasn’t for her hooking up with Gu Zihao, she would only be a little better than Tang Luo!
But now, she understood that no matter how well off and powerful someone else’s family was, it was only someone else’s.
Only when he was strong and capable would he be qualified to choose the life he wanted.
So what if you start at the bottom?
As long as you can learn something, it doesn’t matter where you start!
Ji Baining turned around and left. In her mind, she remembered the scene of Tang Luoxin raping her in bed. She still lacked an apology from Tang Luoxin!
Ji Baining stopped and took a deep breath. When she was ready, she must apologize to Tang Luoxin.
Little by little with Tang Luoxin flashed in her mind like a movie.
The more Ji Baining thought about it, the more sad he felt. How could he have fallen out with Tang Luoxin over such a scum back then?
I hope everything is in time!
Ji Baining had never done housework at home, so it wasn’t so easy to clean up.
However, practice makes perfect. It’s much better now than it was at the beginning!
“Cleaning up again?” Ah Lin walked over and asked.
Ji Baining wiped the sweat off his forehead. A faint smile appeared on his face. He straightened his waist and nodded at the man. “This is daily work!”
“By the way, what major is your university?” Ah Lin crossed his chest, his clear eyes staring at the woman in front of him. His thin lips slightly opened as he asked.
“There are two majors, one is fashion design, the other is business management!” Although Ji Baining did not understand why Ah Lin asked, he still spoke truthfully.
“Have you graduated?” Ah Lin’s eyes flickered as he continued to ask.
“I’m about to graduate, but I haven’t written my thesis yet. Is there anything I can do for you?” Ji Baining tilted his head and asked.
“May I ask which university are you from?” Ah Lin didn’t answer.
Ji Baining felt that Ah Lin was a little strange. She looked at the man with puzzled eyes, “What does this have to do with work?”
‘”Of course it matters. Although I’m not the chairman of the resort, everyone knows me and has a good impression of me after working here for a long time. If you perform well, I might recommend you for a promotion!” Ah Lin said.
Ji Baining’s face revealed an expression of sudden enlightenment. So it was like this: “I am a student of River City XX University!”
Ah Lin silently remembered the school in his heart. A smile appeared on Sunshine’s face as he said, “Do a good job. Maybe you’ll need your major soon!”
After saying that, the man turned around and left.
Ji Baining looked at the slender back of the man, and the words that he had just said kept ringing in his mind. A trace of excitement appeared on his face. Was that what she thought?
Although the man was not as cold as Lu Jingnian or as handsome and clean as Gu Zihao, his entire body carried the aura of sunshine and youth. When he was with him, he would forget all his troubles.
Ah Lin’s facial features were very good, but his skin was slightly dark, but it didn’t affect his handsomeness at all.
The bangs on the man’s forehead fluttered in the wind, giving off a faint youthful aura.
His pitch-black eyes reminded him of the starry night. His thin pink lips reminded him of the first blooming cherry blossom in spring. He smiled gently, as if the sun had shot into the depths of his heart. That warm feeling had been spreading.
When Ji Baining woke up, he was shocked by the man’s smile.
His smile was like a warm winter sun shining into Ji Baining’s cold heart, as if he had grabbed a bright star in the darkness.
When Ji Baining first came to the resort, many people asked her what her relationship with Ah Lin was!
When she said that it was just an ordinary friendship, she could clearly see everyone’s relaxed expressions.
Ji Baining wasn’t stupid. Even if everyone didn’t say anything, she knew that there were many girls who liked Ah Lin.
However, that didn’t seem to have anything to do with her!
At this moment, a gust of wind woke Ji Baining, who was immersed in her own world. The corner of her lips curled into a smile. She reached out and patted her head, muttering to herself, “What are you thinking?”
“What are you talking about?” The manager saw Ji Baining in a daze and hurriedly walked over. He didn’t expect to hear her talking to herself.
“Ah–” Ji Baining was shocked when he heard the sudden sound, and his feet uncontrollably took a few steps back.
When the manager saw Ji Baining’s pale face, he was speechless. Was she that terrifying?
No matter what, she was still a beauty!
“What were you saying just now?” The manager asked patiently.
“I didn’t say anything!” Ji Baining hurriedly shook his head.
“What does Ah Lin need from you?” The manager looked at the man’s back and continued to ask.
“Just ask me what my major is!” Ji Baining said truthfully.
‘”Oh—” The manager looked at Ji Baining with his scrutiny and left without saying anything.
Ji Baining looked at the manager’s back in confusion. What was going on with the two of them?
Could it be that the manager also liked Ah Lin?
When Ji Baining thought of this, he quickly shook his head and whispered, “It’s none of her business. What is she worrying about?”
Time flowed like water. In the blink of an eye, a week had passed.
On this day, Tang Luoxin woke up early. After breakfast, she was about to go to school when the White Tiger let out a low roar.
Although her voice was very low, it was still heard by Tang Luoxin.
Her beautiful face revealed a wisp of surprise. She raised her backpack forcefully and landed on the sofa accurately. She raised her foot and walked towards the White Tiger.
Tang Luoxin squatted on the ground and reached out to caress the soft fur of the White Tiger. Her voice was filled with unprecedented excitement, “White Tiger, is that you? Was it you who roared just now?”
The White Tiger closed its eyes, as if it was cut off from the outside world, unable to hear anything.
Tang Luoxin saw that the White Tiger did not show any signs of waking up, and a trace of disappointment appeared on her face. “Perhaps I heard wrong!”
She reached out to scratch the white tiger’s fur and put her face on its back. At this moment, she hoped that the white tiger would wake up quickly.
He had been asleep for too long!
She was afraid that the White Tiger would keep sleeping like this!
