Chapter 2728: My Neighbor’s Surname Isn’t Li

Li Mingxi stared at the note for a while, then took out some wontons to cook and eat.

After eating, she called her assistant to ask about the situation at the hospital.

After confirming that there was no urgent matter at the hospital, she slowly changed her clothes and went out.

When passing by Xiao Lang’s house, Li Mingxi glanced at it, then quickly walked away.

...

Has anyone ever looked forward to going home?

Having someone at home waiting for you makes you eager to go back right after work.

That’s exactly how Li Mingxi feels right now.

After spending a few hours at the hospital, she immediately left work, bought some fruits on the way, and then went home.

When she reached Xiao Lang’s door, Li Mingxi reached out and pressed the doorbell.

The door opened after a short while.

"Are you here for something? Come in," Xiao Lang smiled slightly.

Li Mingxi handed over a bag of fruit to him: "This is for you."

Xiao Lang took the bag: "Come in and talk."

"I won’t go in. Thank you for helping me yesterday, this fruit is just a small token of appreciation. I won’t disturb you any further." Li Mingxi smiled as she turned around, but after taking two steps, she was called back by Xiao Lang.

"Mingxi, aren’t you going to ask me why I moved here?"

Li Mingxi turned back, "That’s your business."

Xiao Lang’s eyes were deep: "I don’t want to avoid anything; I hope you don’t avoid it either."

"What do you think I’m avoiding?" Li Mingxi smiled faintly, "Xiao Lang, you’re overthinking. I’m being honest, you and I aren’t suitable."

"I don’t believe that."

"To be honest, I, Li Mingxi, am not petty. If I truly loved you, I would give you a chance even if you betrayed me. So, do you understand?"

She doesn’t love him...

Xiao Lang’s throat moved: "I don’t believe it, that you have no feelings for me at all."

"Maybe a little, but it will fade quickly. Just like how you feel about Jian Yufei."

"...I now only see Yufei as a sister."

"I know. I’m the same as you, I now only see you as a friend."

Li Mingxi turned back, opened the door, and went inside.

Xiao Lang watched her closed door for a while, then silently went into his own house.

...

Early the next morning, Xiao Lang dressed neatly and prepared to go out.

Upon opening the door, he was surprised to see a young man holding a bouquet of roses, standing at Li Mingxi’s door.

The man adjusted his suit from time to time, clearly indicating he was a suitor of Li Mingxi.

"Who are you looking for?" Xiao Lang asked blandly.

The man turned around, pointing at Li Mingxi’s door: "Excuse me, does Miss Li Mingxi live here?"

"I don’t know her." Xiao Lang’s expression was cold, "My neighbor doesn’t have the surname Li."

The man was puzzled, "I remember she lives here."

"You should check downstairs, maybe you have the wrong place."

"Really?"

Xiao Lang sneered: "Do you think I’d lie to you?"

Though the man was doubtful, he still didn’t leave.

Xiao Lang turned to go inside, leaving the door open and not in a rush to leave.

After a while, Li Mingxi’s door opened, and a bouquet of roses suddenly appeared in front of her.

Li Mingxi was startled!

"Miss Li, hello! I’m Jiang Shiming, that’s the Jiang from Jiang Jieshi, and the Shi from Li Shiming. Do you remember me?" Jiang Shiming flashed what he thought was a handsome and charming smile.

Li Mingxi frowned slightly: "Sorry, I don’t know you."

Jiang Shiming was slightly stunned: "How could you not remember? Half a month ago, I had a car accident, and you helped treat me. My father is the Vice Minister of the Department of Communications, don’t you remember?"
