MTL - Seventh Year of My Secret Love for You-Chapter 36

The person she wants to marry is not 'maybe not him', but has never been him. Not before, before he said this, he was still not her choice.

Rocky cried for herself once, on the day they broke up.

The second time I cried was for him.

"Luo Qi, do you want to marry me?" Afraid that she might not hear clearly, he said it again.

The rain was too heavy, and Jiang Shenghe's back was soaked.

Luo Qi raised her hand to hold the umbrella pole tightly, and pushed the umbrella over his head.

The moment she ran downstairs to chase him, she knew that everything that followed might be out of control. Unexpectedly, when she was struggling with conflicts due to the huge family gap and worried that there would be no result, he promised her marriage.

A marriage proposal pushes everything to the edge of being out of control.

Seven years and seven months, longer than the time it took for her to repay the debt.

She went crazy once, at the age of twenty-nine.

I don't know the future.

Regardless of the consequences.

Luo Qi's hand holding the umbrella pole slowly moved down, he was holding the umbrella pole, and her hand was on the back of his hand. Luo Qi didn't say anything, and turned her head to look at the night. In the heavy rain, she couldn't see anything clearly.

Feeling the warmth of her palm, Jiang Shenghe waited for seven years, and finally got his wish at this moment.

He lowered his head to kiss her lips, the moment he pressed down, Luo Qi dodged suddenly, her forehead hit the umbrella pole. Thinking that the person in front of her was the boss, she couldn't concentrate on being intimate with him.

The oppressive feeling he gave her had sequelae, and she couldn't change her role in just a few minutes.

Jiang Shenghe apologized: "Sorry, I was abrupt."

Luo Qi shook her head, "I still treat you as the boss."

Jiang Shenghe understood that her agreement to obtain a certificate from him did not mean that she could immediately accept being close to him, so he let go of her waist.

Luo Qi took her hand away from his, walked around his side, and touched his back lightly with the back of her hand, and the clothes could wring out water.

"Mr. Jiang, you go to the car to change first, you are easy to catch cold."

"Can I stop calling you?"

"...Um."

There is a suitcase in the trunk of the car, which is always prepared for business trips, and there are all kinds of clothes in it.

There was only one umbrella, and the two of them passed together.

Jiang Shenghe came out with a shirt and a towel, he opened the door and got into the car, Luo Qi was waiting for him outside the car.

In fact, she could borrow his umbrella and go back first. For some reason, she didn't go back and waited for him outside the car.

When she rushed out to chase him, she also got soaked in the rain, but she didn't get drenched all over her back like he did.

Jiang Shenghe changed the shirt as quickly as possible, got out of the car and sent her upstairs.

From the first floor to the third floor, there were only two footsteps.

Rocky's hands were empty, and she had no keys. She touched her pockets, but there were no keys either.

Jiang Shenghe asked: "What are you looking for?"

"The key may have been lost." He came down in a hurry, unable to remember where he put the key after opening the door.

Jiang Shenghe came to the door, "You didn't pull it out just now."

Luo Qi looked at the lock and saw that the key was still inserted in the keyhole. She opened the door awkwardly and pulled it out.

She hesitated whether to invite him in for a glass of water or let him go.

Jiang Shenghe could see that she was struggling and didn't intend to enter the house.

The time for receiving the certificate has not yet been finalized, so he asked, "When do you want to receive it?"

Deciding on a flash marriage is crazy, but Luo Qi didn't mess around with the day of getting the certificate, which was one of the most important days in her life, and looked at the calendar with her mobile phone.

I chose two dates with better homonyms, "925 or 927, you..." She corrected in time: "What do you think?"

Jiang Shenghe just wanted to get the certificate quickly, "the first one."

He didn't expect that he would worry about gains and losses, "Will you regret it?"

Luo Qi: "I don't know if I will regret it in the future, but I don't regret getting the certificate with you now." This life is too long, and who can guarantee that it will last forever.

Jiang Shenghe took her hand, but she wanted to take it back but didn't.

He pushed open the door, "Go in and change your wet clothes."

Before closing the door, he said again: "Thank you for giving me a chance."

The door closed, and footsteps left outside the door.

Luo Qi was leaning against the door panel. The boss held her left hand just now. That night in Su Cheng, when he dragged her away, it was her wrist that he held.

Just now, he grabbed her palm and fingertips.

Now the palm and back of my left hand are hot.

Luo Qi collected herself and took off her half-wet clothes to take a shower.

After drying her hair, she changed into pajamas and came out of the bathroom still a little dazed. The painting next to the door reminded her that Jiang Shenghe really came here, not a dream.

Luo Yu's birthday wish for her came true.

Luo Qi found a paper cutter and carefully took apart the oil painting. It was the most meaningful birthday present of the year, and she had nowhere to put it, so she put it on the top of the piano.

The mobile phone on the sofa vibrated, she turned her head to see who was calling, and the screen displayed impressively: Mr. Jiang

Luo Qi took a breath before answering, "President Jiang."

"Just call me by my name during off-duty hours."

dare not.

Calling the boss by his name in front of the boss, she has a psychological barrier.

"You try to call me, I will be your husband in two days, and you will still call me Mr. Jiang at home then?"

"..."

Luo Qi changed the subject: "What do you want from me?"

"It's okay." Jiang Shenghe told her: "I'm home."

"Oh." She was still not used to the change of status, and suddenly said to the boss that the routine was too awkward. "Mr. Jiang, I don't know what to talk about, give me some time, I'll get used to it."

"You can say whatever you want, it doesn't matter if you have nothing to say." As long as the phone is connected. During the six years when she didn't break up, he didn't even have a position to make a phone call.

Luo Qi racked her brains to chat a few more words: "You don't need to work overtime tomorrow, do you?"

She silently counted, eight characters, not a lot.

"You don't need to work overtime. I will arrive around nine o'clock, and I will be at the company all day." Jiang Shenghe paused, "I will also be at the company during the break in the future. If you have something to do, you can come to me at any time, and I will be there."

Rocky thought of the tavern, 'you come, I'm still here'.

"Go to sleep." Jiang Shenghe waited for her to hang up the phone before he took down the phone.

The rain has not stopped, he is not sleepy.

Everything is so unreal.

He thought of another thing: [Before receiving the certificate, do you want to tell your parents? There is still time tomorrow, I will accompany you back to Sioux City. 】

Luo Qi: [We will go back after we get familiar with each other. 】

She wasn't ready yet.

It's a mess now.

She had met his father, and strange to say, she was inexplicably afraid of his father. She also knew his parents' requirements for his marriage, and her family would not be what they liked anyway.

Hurt too deeply by the previous relationship, she only wants to pay back the debt now, and she no longer has extra effort and energy to deal with the obstruction from her family.

She sent it again: [Could you please stop telling anyone? 】

Jiang Shenghe: [OK. When you are no longer in debt, and you have reached a new level in your career, you will make it public. 】

In the early morning of the next day, Jiang Sheng drove back to the old house by himself.

Liang Zhen practiced the piano for an hour every morning, and while she was playing, someone knocked on the door, "Mom, it's me." She subconsciously checked the time, it was only half past six.

Jiang Shenghe pushed the door in and closed it.

Liang Zhen glanced at her son, his complexion was not very good, she paused, "Did you sleep well?"

"Yeah." Jiang Shenghe sat down on the chair next to him.

Liang Zhen hesitated to speak, but didn't ask any more. Yesterday Jiang Yueru called her to test her out, whether she went to find Luo Qi in private, Luo Qi was unwilling to accept Jiang Shenghe because of family resistance.

How could she do such a thing.

Jiang Yueru sighed: Luo Qi broke up for a year, but he confessed his love, how long did it last?

Yesterday was Luo Qi's birthday, judging from his son's expression, either he hadn't confessed his love, or he had been rejected.

Liang Zhen was afraid of poking his wound, so she didn't dare to ask.

The son was not in a good mood, he probably came here to listen to her playing the piano, Liang Zhen collected his thoughts, picked a piece of music he liked to listen to when he was a child, and put his fingertips on the keys.

Jiang Shenghe hasn't heard this song for several years, so his mother should be in a good mood.

He wanted to share the joy of receiving the certificate with his mother, but he couldn't say anything.

"Mom, thank you for bringing me into this world."

Liang Zhen slipped her finger and pressed another key. This kind of mistake should not have happened, and it was a song that was so familiar that she couldn't be more familiar with it.

The son should have only said the first half of the sentence, thanking her for bringing him into this world, but blaming her for not giving birth to him in Sucheng. Otherwise, he would be able to get to know Luo Qi earlier, so that no one would respond to his seven-year relationship.

Jiang Shenghe rested his chin and listened carefully to his mother's playing for half an hour. In the sound of the piano, the nerves that have been excited all night are slowly relieved.

Liang Zhen stood up, "Haven't you eaten breakfast yet?"

"No." I wasn't hungry when I came here, but now I have an appetite.

Jiang Shenghe went to the restaurant with his mother, and his aunt prepared breakfast. Mother's diet has always been less oily and salty, more western style.

Liang Zhen mentioned the Mid-Autumn Festival. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival will arrive in less than two weeks at the beginning of October.

"Your dad doesn't have time to come back this year. Your elder brother and second brother are both here. Are you eating at home?"

Jiang Shenghe: "No. Luo Qi is alone, I will be with her."

"Or is it because of a business trip?"

There is no need to make excuses this year, you can go to the rented room to accompany her, and she can go to him if she wants.

The son was silent, and Liang Zhen took it as his acquiescence.

"You can't keep letting her treat you as the boss. If this continues, you won't be able to catch up with her in ten years."

Jiang Shenghe nodded, "I know."

Just know what's the use.

Last year when he was listening to a concert in Sioux City, he took Luo Qi to introduce her to her. She thought he would confess his love soon, but a year later, he still stood still.

"Are you going to the company later?"

"Yeah." Jiang Shenghe said, "Go to Luoqina on the way."

It is estimated that it is an excuse to take documents.

Jiang Shenghe had breakfast, "Mom, I'm back."

"etc."

Liang Zhen asked her aunt to find some lunch boxes. She packed breakfast herself, packed two fresh shrimp rolls with toast, and put the blanched asparagus, broccoli and mushrooms in another lunch box, and mixed it with a salad.

She doesn't know how to make oatmeal and fruit porridge, so she asks her aunt to make an insulated box.

Jiang Shenghe thought he was asked to bring him to the company for lunch, "Mom, I'm full."

"Aren't you going to Luo Qi's? Take it to her by the way." Liang Zhen put a few lunch boxes into thermal bags, "Mom respects the people you like."

"You said that I am as important to you as Luo Qi. To me, you and your father are equally important. From now on, respect my other half more, and don't make him angry at every turn."

Liang Zhen has never said so much to her son at once: "Your father is not as bad as you think. From now on, I will try to understand Luo Qi, and you will also try to understand your father. After you confess your love, you want to talk to her When you get married, you can get your father's blessing, and I think Luo Qi cares more about the family's blessing. Let's work **** our own."

Jiang Shenghe took the thermal bag from his mother, leaned over, and hugged his mother with one hand, "Thank you, Mom."

Liang Zhen's nose was sore, her son had hugged her like this when he was very young, and relied on her. It was her performance that time, Jiang Yueru took him to the theater, and when the performance was over, he brought a bouquet of flowers to the stage and gave it to her.

He is still young, and he feels that he can't walk steadily while holding flowers.

She squatted down to catch the flowers, and he hugged her with his two small hands. He didn't speak, but he was very happy in her arms.

Coming out of the villa, Jiang Shenghe calmed down in the car for a while, and started the car to go to Luo Qi's place.

While waiting for the signal light, he sent a message to Luo Qi: [I brought you breakfast. 】

Luo Qi didn't fall asleep until after three o'clock last night, and woke up before seven o'clock in the morning, staring at the ceiling in a daze when news from the boss came in.

After one night, she was still in the clouds, ethereal and unreal.

Didn't sleep well, my brain is more sluggish than yesterday.

【President Jiang, don't bother. 】

With Mr. Jiang at the front, she can continue the conversation in a self-deceiving manner.

Jiang Shenghe: [No trouble. I'm the one who troubled you. I wanted to meet you by bringing you breakfast. 】

Rocky: "..."

Even the mobile phone is hot, so I put it down and get up to wash.

Before Jiang Shenghe arrived, she finished putting on her makeup and changed into a dress he had never seen before. This was the only newly bought dress this year.

The two most extravagant purchases this year are an oil painting and a skirt.

Get your hair done, people haven't arrived yet.

Luo Qi thought that there were no men's slippers at home, so she went downstairs, and there was a small supermarket less than 200 meters ahead, which had slippers, which were of average quality and cheap.

She picked a pair that was relatively expensive.

After coming out of the small supermarket, the familiar black car slowly drove over and pulled over in front of her.

"Mr. Jiang." She doesn't think about it so much now, so she can just say it casually, and her brain hurts if she thinks too much.

Jiang Shenghe got out of the car, "What did you buy?"

Luo Qi said nothing, and showed him the plastic bag.

Like her, Jiang Shenghe floated in mid-air all night, and only when he saw the men's slippers in her hand did he feel at ease.

"Give it to me." He took it.

The two walked side by side without saying a word.

The air after rain was exceptionally fresh, and Luo Qi took a deep breath.

Jiang Shenghe saw what the room looked like at the door yesterday. The dining and living room together were only more than ten square meters. He changed his shoes and entered the house. He didn't expect that there was a piano in the small living room.

"Do you like playing the piano?"

"It's not mine. Chu Lin put it here. She will come over to play sometimes, so as not to delay practicing the piano."

Luo Qi put her breakfast on the coffee table, and she used the original small dining table as a desk for office work, so she usually ate on the small coffee table.

"Mr. Jiang, sit down as you please."

After blurting out, I realized that I used you again, and after two seconds, "Mr. Jiang, you can sit as you please."

There is only a two-seater sofa at home, and she sits down to eat, and if he sits, he will be next to her.

Jiang Shenghe sat on the piano bench, unexpectedly she put the painting in such a conspicuous place, stared at the oil painting for a few seconds, and was brought back to her thoughts by Luo Qi's voice, "Mr. Jiang, have you eaten yet?"

Luo Qi opened the lunch box, the portion was enough for two people, so she asked a question.

"I've eaten it, and I brought it to you."

There was still a music score on the music stand. Jiang Shenghe got up halfway and moved the piano stool back to make it suitable for him to sit down and play the piano.

When he was a child, he was forced to learn the piano. For a while, he felt rebellious and didn't want to practice, so his mother didn't force him anymore. After he didn't force him, he was willing to learn.

He hasn't played it since he went to study abroad.

Luo Qi looked up at him slightly, she should be the employee with the highest salary in the world, the big boss personally delivered the meal, and she also accompanied by the piano.

His playing level is also average among amateurs, but it doesn't prevent her from finding it nice.

Before Luo Qi finished her breakfast, Jiang Shenghe put the piano bench back after playing a piece, "I'm going to the company."

She was about to stand up when he pressed her shoulders and pressed her back, "I'm not your boss on weekends, so don't send me off."

He closed the door and left, Luo Qi breathed a sigh of relief, he was the same as before confessing, he always had a sense of proportion to her, and would not make her uncomfortable, it was her own reason, and she hadn't found a balance point to get along with him.

Although Jiang Shenghe went to the company, he was not in his mind.

At noon, he didn't know what he was busy with all morning.

Invalid overtime.

During the lunch break, I received a call from an elder in Shanghai.

Jiang Shenghe thought that Luo Zhiqiu's company had encountered a difficult problem again, "Did Luo Qi's father encounter trouble again?"

"His company is okay, the funds keep up, and it can survive no matter how difficult it is."

The elders called him to be related to Dongbo Medical, "Didn't you want to acquire it last year? Now is an opportunity."

Jiang Shenghe asked, "Is there an emergency at Pei Shixiao's side?"

"That's right. Their company's board of directors will be reelected next month, and Dongbo Medical is managed by Li Jin behind the scenes."

Jiang Shenghe frowned, and suddenly remembered that Li Jin was Pei Shixiao's mother. He was not interested in Pei Shixiao's family affairs at all, and never paid attention to their company's developments.

"You continue."

"Recently, Li Jin's mind is not on Dongbo Medical. She is very ambitious. So now you can consider the acquisition."

"I asked Li Rui to arrange it last week."

The elder smiled, "It seems that you have been looking at Pei Shixiao unhappy."

Every time he talks to Jiang Shenghe, he inevitably talks about Luo Qi.

"Are you going to chase him for another three years, a whole ten years?"

Jiang Shenghe could hear the teasing in the words, and smiled, "It's not impossible."

He put away the joke, "At the end of the year, Luo Qi and I will visit you."

"Don't push back and make excuses for not coming. I have already prepared the red envelope."

After finishing the call, Jiang Shenghe was no longer sleepy. He washed his face with cold water, drank another cup of coffee, and then temporarily pulled himself away from the joy of getting the certificate.

Although Li Rui was told to acquire Dongbo Medical, it is not known how long it will last, and the sunk cost is too high.

After careful consideration, he called He Wancheng.

Now that she is familiar with He Wancheng, she doesn't even have to exchange pleasantries.

"There is a deal, I don't know if Director He is interested or not."

"Tell me."

"Pei Shixiao's company's board of directors will be reelected next month. You can talk to Li Jin and help her get control of the company safely, and then deal with the aftermath. The condition for helping her is to sell Dongbo Medical to me."

The benefits he gave He Wancheng: "In the future, if He Xu needs anything, come to me anytime."

The nephew is in charge of the company in Beijing. With Jiang Shenghe's connections, he would be like a fish in water.

He Wancheng laughed and said, "He Xu doesn't have a girlfriend yet, so keep an eye out for him then."

Cooperation reached.

At six o'clock, Jiang Shenghe left the company.

Unconsciously, he turned the car to the road leading to Rocky's rental house.

He didn't contact her all day.

When we got downstairs, the lights on the third floor were not on.

Maybe he was watching a movie, Jiang Shenghe went upstairs and knocked on the door, but no one answered, so he returned to the car and waited for her.

After waiting until 8:10, Luo Qi's car appeared in sight.

Jiang Shenghe opened the car door and went down, and took a few steps forward.

Luo Qi didn't carry anything and got out of the car.

Jiang Shenghe said, "I thought you went shopping."

She just went shopping and bought a white shirt to wear on the day she received the certificate. In fact, white, black, and gray shirts are the most common items in her closet, but she still went to buy one.

Luo Qi didn't know what was going on in her mind, she didn't take off the shopping bag when she got off the car.

She said, "Go out for a stroll."

Jiang Shenghe: "I come here twice a day, I don't know if it will bother you."

"..."

Luo Qi answered irrelevantly: "President Jiang, would you like to go upstairs for a glass of water?"

"No, you should rest early."

She was right in front of him, wearing a dress he had never seen before, Jiang Shenghe restrained himself from reaching out to hug her.

He took her hand again, separated her five fingers, and clasped her ten fingers tightly for a few seconds.

Luo Qi's breathing stagnated for a moment.

Jiang Shenghe let go, "Go up."

He didn't get in the car until she entered the building.

Survive Sunday, survive Monday, and finally look forward to Tuesday.

Just after dawn that morning, Jiang Shenghe appeared downstairs at Luo Qi's house.

I have accompanied my boss on business trips, negotiated negotiations, and worked overtime. I never thought that one day I would accompany my boss to the marriage registration office.

At 9:10, Xiao Jiang privately sent her: [Sister Luo, why are you late today? 】

Rocky: "..."

Getting a certificate from the boss.

They are the first couple to deal with, and they will be fine soon.

She replied: 【Accompany Mr. Jiang to meet clients, and I'll be back in a while. 】

Xiao Jiang: [I said, why didn't Mr. Jiang come. 】

Rocky: "..."

When signing, she glanced at Jiang Shenghe's application form. He usually signed in a hurry, but today he wrote his name stroke by stroke.

On the third day after her birthday, she had a flash marriage with her boss.

Coming out of the marriage registration office and reaching the steps, Jiang Shenghe stopped suddenly.

The ring is booked, but I can't get it this month. The most important day in my life, I can't have any sense of ceremony.

He grabbed Luo Qi, "Stand still." He went down another step, turned to face her, and he reached out to hug her.

Luo Qi was one step higher than him, and was embraced by him. Her whole weight was on him, and she was held firmly in his arms.

A certified couple came behind him, Jiang Shenghe carried Luo Qi down a step and let her go.

When Luo Qi got into the car, her heartbeat became normal.

Jiang Shenghe drove, and neither of them spoke on the way back.

Keep one copy of the marriage certificate.

Back at the company, Luo Qi carried a notebook and documents in her hands, and kept a proper distance from Jiang Shenghe when she got out of the elevator. No one suspected that they were not going to meet customers.

Arriving at the office, Rocky locked the door behind her.

Jiang Shenghe guessed that her attention would be distracted in the morning, so she didn't arrange work for her.

I have no idea how to get along with Jiang Shenghe next.

From time to time, she would glance at the marriage certificate in the bag, and Luo Qi would look for something to divert her attention and open the 3D printing data in the notebook.

Suddenly recalling the plan seven years ago, Jiang Shenghe said that night that he remembered that she was interested in 3D printing. At that time, he was not sure if he really remembered, but now he can be sure that what he said was not a scene.

He has liked her for seven years and seven months. When she gave him the plan, he had already treated her differently, so he should reply her email.

Luo Qi looked at the time, Jiang Sixun was at ten o'clock in the evening, not too late, she sent him a message, with a glimmer of hope, [Brother Jiang, the email I used when I was an intern at Yuanwei Capital was taken back by the company After that, did you log out? 】

Jiang Sixun: [You won't log out even if you think about it, it has been maintained. 】

Luo Qi asked urgently: [What is the password, do you know it? 】

Jiang Sixun forgot, 【Let me help you ask the information center. ] At the beginning, he asked Jiang Shenghe if he wanted to keep that mailbox, and he said to keep it.

He changed a password at random, thinking that Jiang Shenghe might be able to catch up with Luo Qi in a short time, and then give Luo Qi the mailbox again, who knows that the wait will be seven years, and he has long forgotten the password.

Only the message center can reset the password.

Ten minutes later, Luo Qi received a string of numbers, and she entered the password to log in to the mailbox.

After seven years, when she clicked to log in, she couldn't help but hold her breath.

There are a total of seven unread emails, all from Jiang Shenghe's English name.

The most recent one was on September 22 last year, her birthday.

Luo Qi clicked on the earliest one, and Jiang Shenghe returned her project plan. The attachment was huge, so she didn't read it first, and clicked on the other ones according to the time of receipt.

They are sent to her at zero o'clock on September 22 every year, with only four simple words: happy birthday

Only the envelope from last year remained unopened.

Two days before her birthday last year, Jiang Sixun invited her to dinner and celebrated her birthday. Halfway through the meal, Jiang Shenghe happened to come over and toasted her with a glass of wine.

At that time, she was preparing to obtain a certificate from Pei Shixiao.

Luo Qi clicked on last year's letter, and he was still stuck sending it at zero o'clock, with the most words:

[This should be the last time to wish you a birthday, and I will have my life next year. Happy birthday, I love you. May everything go your way from now on. 】
