C543 King's Feast 6

Especially when the big tree Mu Qiaozhi left, the vines would have no way of being attached to him, so he had no choice but to make more plans for himself.

However, with just this pet hospital, how many years would it take to earn that $2 million?

Perhaps, this was the main reason why he didn't report to the research institute for such a long time.

He looked at the blank look on her face as if she were a small child, and his heart ached. All sorts of things were going on in his mind.

Fang Dazhuang, Qu Cunzi... Back then, he hated the two men who hurt her the most, but he, Mu Qiaozhi, still joined this army in the end.

Never before had he hated himself so much.

He turned his head, and only after a long while did he turn back and speak even more gently, "Likun, I have a lot of money from the research facility, and I'm also going to get a bonus. I really don't need this money, you have to take it …"

"No, I can't take your money!"

She interrupted him and took another step back. With an even more fearful expression in her eyes, she said, "Qiao Zhi, I don't want to … "I have always owed you a favor …"

"It's not my money, it's ours! It belongs to us. "

His attitude was more resolute than hers. Before her, he had always dominated: "Likun, you have to listen to me."

Perhaps it was the familiar look in his eyes as he looked at her, perhaps it was his resolute tone, perhaps it was the deep, bone-deep sense of dependence that came from the warm, large hands that touched her hair … She had lost the strength to object, and as always, he was the one who made the decisions.

He put the check on the table in front of her and opened his mouth several times, saying nothing.

There had been a time when he had worked extremely hard for the sake of allowing her to truly and thoroughly do whatever she wanted one day. In fact, when he had buried her mother with her, he had promised to take care of her for the rest of her life. In the end, he still betrayed his trust.

This pain was neither too deep nor too intense. However, it was like a shadow that followed him through the night and the afternoon. When he came back to his dreams, he opened his eyes. He would often wet his eyes in the dark.

All of this, she did not know.

He smiled and suddenly took out an exquisite small box from his coat pocket. "Li Kun, this is my Christmas present for you. Take a look and see if you like it or not. I bought it when I was in South Africa... "

Inside the box, there was a very small and exquisite artistic carving.

She stared blankly, like a child, unable to let go of him.

At that moment, he completely forgot that the two of them had already parted ways. It was just like in the past. Every time he went on a long journey, he would always bring back a present for her. This habit had never changed since the first day she met him.

However, this year, the gift was given two weeks earlier, a change of fate.

She waved the sculpture and laughed: "Qiao Zhi, this one is really pretty."

However, his heart was suddenly broken.

Just like the lonely girl she saw under the big tree on campus all those years ago … Until now, her eyes were still filled with the same kind of lonely child, the kind of pleasant surprise when she suddenly met her peers.

She forgot that they were no longer in love.

Only then did he feel as if his chest was about to split open.
