Lawyer Gao is secretly jealous again

Chapter 363 Gao Huoling is standing behind Ding Jiaxu

It was still relatively early when Gao Huoling left the hospital, at least much earlier than his workday.

He went straight home. He wanted to see Ding Jiaxu before going to the Gao family mansion.

He found a missed call on his mobile phone. It was from Ding Jiaxu, who was still in the hospital at that time.

Later, when he was free, he called back, but Ding Jiaxu didn't answer and didn't reply to his WeChat message.

On the way home, he kept thinking, I felt someone behind me before, was it Ding Jiaxu?

When Gao Huoling returned home, the house was dark, the lights were off, and it looked like no one was there.

"A commendation?"

Gao Huoling turned on the light in the living room, but there was no one there. He went to the study and bedroom upstairs but didn't find anyone there.

But he saw that Ding Jiaxu's clothes had been washed and hung on the balcony.

He remembered that was what she wore in the morning.

Does that mean she was at home? Or did she really go out?

Gao Huoling immediately remembered that Ding Jiaduo was probably in the studio on the basement floor.

So he went over.

When he got there, he saw Ding Jiaxu as expected, but she was holding a cell phone and no one knew who she was talking to. Gao Huoling stood at the door and did not go over to disturb her immediately.

But he noticed the messy papers and pens on the ground, thinking that they had been swept to the ground by someone.

He just stared at Ding Jiaxu's back quietly.

Ding Jiaxu fell asleep on the table before and was later woken up by the cold.

When she woke up, she had a headache and her eyes were swollen.

But she didn't care how ugly she looked now.

She was about to get up and pick up the papers and pens on the ground when the phone rang.

It was Ling Che calling.

"Let me discuss something with you."

"What's the matter?" Ding Jiaxu asked, rubbing his temple.

"Hey, do you think I should call you my junior sister or my cousin's wife?" Ling Che suddenly changed the subject. Ding Jiaxu was in a really bad mood and had no time to joke.

"Hang up..." She said coldly, wanting to hang up the phone.

Ling Che's voice came again immediately: "Hey wait a minute, you are so stingy that you can't even make a joke."

"Hurry up and tell me." Ding Jiaxu's tone was still cold.

"I wanted to say that our company is interested in cooperating with you. Your brown eyes have received good reviews online. Although I shouldn't ask you and you'll be angry, I still want to ask, what's wrong with you? Did you have a fight with your cousin?"

"If you want it, take it. I plan to finish it."

Ding Jiaxu avoided the topic of quarreling.

"Ah? It's finished? You haven't finished updating yet? You have to fill the hole you dug? Or are you learning from American TV series? Season after season, are you ready to cooperate with me for a long time?" Ling Che chuckled.

Ding Jiaxu was in no mood at all. After waking up from a nap, his mind was still filled with the words of Song Xinlan and Gao Huoling.

"That's all...that's it." Ding Jiaxu said as she stood up. She held the phone in her hand while preparing to pick up the paper and pen on the ground.

"Gone? Really? What happened to you?" Ling Che thought that this comic would continue to be serialized, or at least have a perfect ending.

"Send me the authorization agreement and I'll email you the full version, that's it."

Ding Jiaxu seemed very busy. He didn't want to say a single extra word and just hung up the phone.

She threw her phone aside and started picking up paper and pen from the ground.

Gao Huoling walked towards her and squatted down to help her pick up the things.

Ding Jiaxu was stunned: "Why are you back?"

"Not at the hospital..." "Oh...it's not time to get off work yet."

Ding Jiaxu didn't want Gao Huoling to know that she had been to the hospital and almost let it slip.

Gao Huoling picked up the paper, put it on the table and stood up.

"I came back directly from the hospital. Mom said you went to the hospital, so why didn't I see you?" Gao Huoling asked tentatively without showing any emotion.

Ding Jiaxu immediately shook his head: "I didn't go...it was raining, and I fell asleep at home."

"My eyes are swollen from sleeping."

Ding Jiaxu smiled apologetically and rubbed his eyes.

"Oh...then, where did you go? Why did you change your clothes? I remember you were wearing this this morning?" Gao Huoling leaned on the table.

"I was going to go out, but when I saw it was raining, I didn't go out, so I changed into my home clothes... What? You don't trust me now and are questioning me? Can't I change clothes at home?"

Although Ding Jiaxu always had a smile on his face, it was a somewhat strange smile.

"No... I didn't mean that. What's wrong with you?" Gao Huoling noticed the strange smile on her face. He reached out to touch Ding Jiaxu's face, but she grabbed his hand.

Ding Jiaxu held his hand and took it down.

"I'm fine, I'm fine."

"Hmm..." Gao Huoling was stunned for a long time and just nodded, "Who are you calling?"

"Ling Che, his company wanted to license my comics, and I gave it to him."

Ding Jiaxu let go of Gao Huoling's hand and began to pick up the papers on the table.

She sorted out the unused white papers and put them aside, and even crumpled up some of the drawn papers and threw them into the trash can.

"Are you okay?" Gao Huoling grabbed her arm. He intuitively felt that something was wrong with her, but he couldn't put his finger on it.

"It's okay... What could happen to me? Why are you looking at me like that?" Ding Jiaxu pulled his hand back and continued to tidy up the table.

"In a few days, I will go back to my hometown with Ke Yan to pay respect to my biological parents. I want to finish the comic so that I can go out with peace of mind."

"Have you read my comics in the past?"

Ding Jiaxu suddenly asked.

"Not yet... I've been quite busy lately." Gao Huoling answered with a guilty conscience. Ding Jiaxu shrugged and said it was okay.

She turned her back to Gao Huoling and continued to clean the table.

Gao Huoling was afraid that Ding Jiaxu had been to the hospital and heard what he and Song Xinlan said.

If you didn't hear all those words, you might really misunderstand them.

He hugged Ding Jiaxu from behind. Ding Jiaxu was stunned and tilted his head slightly.

"what happened?"

"Did you really not go to the hospital?" Gao Huoling asked, and Ding Jiaxu immediately understood.

He must have been afraid that she would hear what he said.

What would happen if she heard it?
Would he be worried that she might hear him?
I'm still worried that this fool of hers will run away.

Ding Jiaxu's grip tightened a little, but soon let go.

"What's wrong? Is there something shameful going on in the hospital that you're afraid I'd know? Could it be that some young nurse has taken a fancy to you?"

Ding Jiaxu turned around and leaned on the table.

"Tell me the truth, what secrets are you afraid of me knowing?"

Ding Jiaxu folded his arms over his chest and raised his eyebrows.

"No...Grandpa had a stroke. I stayed with grandma in the hospital for a while. In addition to my aunt's matter, I may have to go back to the mansion more often recently. You stay at home and be obedient. If the weather is bad, don't go out."

Gao Huoling's tone was still so gentle, but to Ding Jiaxu it sounded like he was coaxing a fool like her.
