MTL - Seventh Year of My Secret Love for You-Chapter 40
Luo Qi was a little sorry for Xiao Jiang today, and Xiao Jiang had to repeat it every time before she could hear clearly.
Feeling guilty, she had no choice but to lie and say, "The signal is not very good."
"It's okay, it's okay." Xiao Jiang didn't take it seriously, even if he killed him, he would never have thought that Luo Qi's 'signal' would be cut off because the boss was fixing her ID tape.
After the work was done, the phone was finally hung up.
My heart is beating wildly.
Luo Qi had to take care of the driver's seat while answering the phone, for fear that the driver would turn his face or look in the rearview mirror. Fortunately, the driver listened to her talking on the phone and kept looking at the front windshield, but found nothing unusual.
Jiang Shenghe finished tidying up her ID belt and sat back in her original seat.
Luo Qi couldn't calm down, and it was almost time for the opening ceremony of the financial summit, so she couldn't delay, she said to Jiang Shenghe, "Mr. Jiang, my side is fine."
Jiang Shenghe nodded and pushed the door open.
Luo Qi followed him into the meeting place. Just now he carefully sorted her ID belt, the first reaction in her mind was no longer the boss sorting her ID, but her husband.
So the heartbeat is completely messed up.
"President Jiang, long time no see." Someone greeted him.
Luo Qi had an impression of this person. At the signing ceremony of the fair last year, this person also greeted Jiang Shenghe.
"What have you been up to lately?" It was rare for Jiang Shenghe to care about others first.
He Xu laughed and said, "Busy."
Glancing at Luo Qi from the corner of her eye, she immediately retracted. Last year at the signing ceremony, he greeted Jiang Shenghe and went to see what Luo Qi looked like. Luo Yu made her a fairy.
It is indeed beautiful.
But not the kind he was tempted by.
If he gets married, he can consider looking for someone like Luo Qi.
It just so happened that the uncle was nagging him every day, he thought, let's go to Luo Qi, after all, marriage doesn't need feelings, and you don't need to talk about love, as long as it's suitable.
There are also very few marriage partners that make him feel good.
It turned out yellow.
Jiang Shenghe: "Let's play cards together when we have time."
"I'm free anytime, I'll go to the clubhouse after the festival to discuss card skills with you."
The two walked towards the front row of the venue while talking.
Rocky's seat was in the sixth row, and the boss was in the first row, so she went to her seat.
He Xu's seat was not the same as Jiang Shenghe's. Before the meeting time, the front row of the arena was chatting with familiar people, so he chatted with Jiang Shenghe for a few more words.
Jiang Shenghe mentioned Luo Yu: "Do you know Luo Yu?"
"...I've met people from Party B of our project." Now that Luo Yu has turned into ashes, he knows him.
The person Jiang Shenghe can take the initiative to mention is extraordinary.
"Boss Jiang also knows Luo Yu?"
Jiang Shenghe only said: "My assistant's cousin."
He Xu smiled: "So they are all acquaintances."
Jiang Shenghe didn't stop, and he took the initiative to mention that He Xu would naturally take care of Luo Yu at work in the future.
He Xu's thoughts are more complicated. Knowing where the assistant's cousin works is either because he is attentive to the assistant, or he is deeply impressed by the assistant's cousin.
It is very possible that Luo Yu was eager to introduce her boyfriend to Luo Qi after she broke up with him, so she cast a wide net, not only him, but also Jiang Shenghe.
Now that Luo Qi has a boyfriend, he and Jiang Shenghe were both deceived.
It's a matter of personal relationship, He Xu and Jiang Shenghe haven't gotten to know each other well enough to talk about anything, so it's hard to ask further questions.
There were two minutes until nine o'clock, and He Xu returned to his seat.
Today Jiang Shenghe is the second to give a speech on stage. Before him is Xu Xiangyi, a senior in the financial industry. Xu Xiangyi is over 60 years old.
He rarely attends events, and it is difficult for many people to ask him to have a meal.
When Jiang Shenghe went up, Xu Xiangyi patted him on the shoulder.
Luo Qi, who was sitting off the stage, was taking pictures on the stage. She didn't expect that Jiang Shenghe had such a good relationship with the financial giant Xu Xiangyi.
In fact, there is no need for Luo Qi to take pictures today, the scene is full of long and short guns from major financial media.
She pointed the camera at Jiang Shenghe and only photographed him, blurring the background next to him.
It's also a coincidence that Jiang Shenghe didn't have a speech session in the past two years, and it happened to be this year.
Jiang Shenghe spent a total of twenty-three minutes, and Luo Qi timed him.
Around, her applause was the loudest.
During the intermission of the meeting, Luo Qi looked back at the photos she had just taken, and when she looked up again, she saw Pei Shixiao looking for Jiang Shenghe.
Pei Shixiao handed Jiang Shenghe a cigarette, "Boss Jiang, go out for a cigarette?"
Jiang Shenghe: "Quit."
Pei Shixiao awkwardly put the handed out cigarette to his mouth. This is the meeting place, so he couldn't smoke, he just bit it in his mouth.
"Are you still not giving up on the acquisition of Dongbo?"
He said again: "Why bother. Even if you buy all the technology and medical companies to her, you can only touch her."
Jiang Shenghe smiled, too lazy to answer.
"Mr. Jiang, you don't know her. She is slow and long-term. It's hard to fall in love with someone." Once you fall in love, you will be in love for a long time, and no one else will be in her eyes.
Pei Shixiao still had the last hope, even if Jiang Shenghe liked her for seven years, she would not accept it so easily. The so-called open boyfriend in the circle of friends, the back view was P'ed so badly, I really have to accept Jiang Shenghe, I don't know how to P photos.
"I'm going out to smoke, excuse me."
Luo Qi watched Pei Shixiao leave, wondering what he said to Jiang Shenghe. Jiang Shenghe's cell phone is with her, so she can't ask.
At noon, the organizer arranges a unified meal, a simple buffet.
Jiang Shenghe accompanied Xu Xiangyi with a few friends, Luo Qi didn't go there, and shared a table with the person sitting next to her during the meeting to have a working meal.
Just after eating, there was a figure beside the table, and Pei Shixiao came to look for her.
"Long time no see." He greeted first.
On this occasion today, she maintained the demeanor she should have: "President Pei, I happen to have something to tell you. If it's convenient, go talk outside?"
The two walked out of the restaurant one after the other.
Jiang Shenghe and Luo Qi were not in the same dining area. When he went to find her, he happened to see her going out with Pei Shixiao. While talking to Pei Shixiao, she lowered her head and opened her bag, wondering what she was looking for in it.
He didn't follow.
Luo Qi and Pei Shixiao left the conference center, looking for a place where there were not many people, when a woman walked up to her, wearing a suit of a certain luxury brand, with an admission pass hanging around her neck.
When most people see someone directly in front of them, they will avoid it a little bit. After all, the road is so wide, and it is not necessary to walk in a straight line, but the woman on the opposite side comes straight.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Cui Peng looked at Pei Shixiao for a moment. She switched to another venture capital company. The company had a limited number of conference seats, and she managed to get one.
On formal occasions, she didn't find a chance to talk to Pei Shixiao, and now she saw Pei Shixiao walking with Luo Qi, she couldn't be reconciled.
From the way the woman looked at Pei Shixiao, Luo Qi guessed who it was.
Luo Qi didn't have time to listen to their greetings, and walked away.
Pei Shixiao didn't care about Cui Peng at all, he forgot whether he had responded to Cui Peng, and strode after Luo Qi.
It's empty, no one is passing by.
Luo Qi didn't talk nonsense, and directly took out the marriage certificate in the bag to show him.
"In the future, don't look for me again, and don't appear in front of me on purpose."
"Luo Qi, you..." When Pei Shixiao saw Jiang Shenghe in the ID photo, his whole body was numb, he couldn't feel any pain, and all the strength in his body was taken away at that moment.
Originally last September, they also had to obtain the certificate.
She is such a slow person, why did she get married in a flash?
Seeing Pei Shixiao's reaction, Luo Qi thought of her former self.
The moment she knew he was cheating, she was probably like this.
"Besides the staff of the Civil Affairs Bureau, you are the first person who knows that we have obtained the certificate. Jiang Shenghe promised me not to tell anyone. If I don't show the certificate to you, he will not take it even if you provoke me again." Get married to show off. But I can't let him hold back in front of you."
Luo Qi put the certificate in her bag, "I've let go of all the things in the past, and I don't complain or hate anymore. Anyway, I hope you will be happy after getting to know each other once."
She turned back to the venue.
Knowing that Pei Shixiao was also attending the financial summit today, he was sure that he would definitely look for her again, so she brought her ID with her before she came in the morning.
Back at the venue, Jiang Shenghe was talking to Qin Moling.
Luo Qi sat down on her seat, and just as she sat firmly, Jiang Shenghe came to her, "Give me the phone." He whispered, "Is he bothering you again?"
"No. I let him out."
Rocky gave him his cell phone and looked around, no one was paying attention to her side.
She opened the bag to reveal the marriage certificate, "I showed him this."
Just finished watching, the person sitting next to him came, Luo Qi closed the bag as if nothing had happened, Jiang Shenghe typed a few words, and returned the phone to her.
The phone page is a document with only two words on it: thank you
In the evening, the financial bigwigs had a dinner party, and their little Xiami couldn't make it, so Luo Qi went back early. Luo Yu came over today and brought her the matcha cookies she baked.
Luo Yu was still worrying about He Xu, He Xu went to the financial summit today, so it was useless to meet him.
"Sister, I'm moving house."
"It's fine, why do you want to move all of a sudden?"
"The landlord sold the house and gave us compensation to the company, allowing us to rent another place. Now that we are familiar with this place, the company means that they will not rent it to us uniformly, and give us subsidies to let us rent it ourselves."
"When will the house be taken back? If you don't have a place to live, move here first."
"No. The new landlord is also very nice. He is not in a hurry to renovate the house. Give us a two-month transition period, which is enough for us to find a house."
Luo Yu plans to find a house near her cousin so that she can take care of her more conveniently.
While eating the cookies absent-mindedly, Luo Yu's face suddenly appeared in Luo Yu's mind again.
Luo Qi noticed that her cousin was distracted, "Why are you in a daze?"
Luo Yu hesitated to speak.
"Say it, don't be bored."
"Forget it. I can't tell myself."
"In love?"
"without."
Luo Qi smiled, "Then tell me when you can explain clearly."
"How many days off do you have?" She diverted her cousin's attention.
"I don't know yet." Maybe maybe maybe just let it go for a day. He Xu will not let her go.
With the early arrival of cold air, the last working day before the holiday is finally over.
The temperature has dropped by more than ten degrees today, and it feels cold even wearing a coat.
Xiao Jiang turned off the computer and said hello to his colleagues. The self-driving tour with his wife started tonight.
Luo Qi asked concerned: "Where are you going to play?"
"Driving all the way to the south, it is estimated that the farthest you can drive is Shanghai." During the holidays, there will be traffic jams on the road, and the return time must also be considered. Go all the way, and visit as many cities as you can.
Luo Qi: "If you go to Sioux City, call me and I'll take you to play for a day."
"That's necessary, thank you Sister Luo." Even if he went to Suzhou City, he wouldn't bother Luo Qi. After finally having a vacation, everyone has their own arrangements.
Luo Qi and other people in the president's office left and went to the boss's office.
Jiang Shenghe was answering the phone. A few friends asked him out for dinner, saying that they hadn't seen each other for a long time, and another friend just came back from abroad.
"Okay, send me the address."
Cutting off the call, he said to Rocky, "I'm having dinner with friends tonight. Are you going? They all know you."
Rocky: "..."
How many people know that he has a crush on her.
"I won't go."
After the past, I still feel like sitting on pins and needles.
Jiang Shenghe doesn't force it, there will be plenty of opportunities to have dinner together in the future. Now she is no longer restrained when getting along with Qin Moling and Jian Hang, and his other friends need to take their time.
They left the office together.
Jiang Shenghe asked her to stay at home for a few more days, "You haven't been back for almost a year."
Rocky said, "I'll be back in three or four days."
Jiang Shenghe thought: "Is there anything else to do when you come back?"
"No."
Jiang Shenghe understood, and he said, "You don't need to come back, I'll go to Sucheng."
Luo Qi said "hmm", very softly.
When they got downstairs, the two separated.
Luo Qi left first in her own car, and Jiang Shenghe got into her own car. The driver was sometimes in a daze, feeling that they were together, and felt that it was the boss's unilateral intention.
Luo Qi began to plan to wait for Jiang Shenghe to go to Sucheng and take him around. This was their first date.
She was thinking about it all the way from the company to home.
Just as she opened the door, Chu Lin's phone came in.
The last time we met was a few months ago, and Chu Lin has been recording programs recently, and has only been free for a few days.
Every year during the November holiday, Chu Lin would go to Sioux City to stay for a few days. She has a house in Sioux City, and she plans to go there this year, but this time to sell the house.
That person has someone to marry, so it's pointless for her to wait any longer.
"Are you home for the holidays?"
"Go back, tomorrow's ticket." Luo Qi asked, "What about you? Do you have a vacation?"
"Yes. I'm going to Sioux City to stay for a few days. If I'm free, I'll find you out for a cup of coffee."
Luo Qi: "I'm free until the 4th." After that, it belongs to Jiang Shenghe's time, and she won't allocate it to other people.
Chu Lin also passed a few days before the holiday, and the time just happened to fit.
Luo Qi had eaten and cleaned the house, and the time passed very slowly when she was alone.
After taking a bath, she watered the green plants on the balcony again.
The phone rang, Jiang Shenghe's call.
He just came out of the restaurant and asked her if she was at home and came to see her.
"It's only eight o'clock, you finished eating so quickly?"
"Well, I didn't drink any alcohol."
Because he said he didn't drink, the others didn't drink. They realized that he should have something to do, so they left after eating.
Luo Qi was wearing pajamas, hung up the phone, and went to the bedroom to find clothes to change.
Jiang Shenghe's place to eat is about half an hour's drive away. She changed her clothes and began to pack her luggage for going home tomorrow. She didn't have many things to bring, and it didn't take twenty minutes to pack them into boxes.
There is no need to get up too early for the ten o'clock shift tomorrow morning.
Just carried the suitcase to the living room, when there was a knock on the door, I thought it was Jiang Shenghe who had arrived.
"sister!"
"..."
"sister?"
"Come on." Luo Qi went to answer the door, and the date with the boss tonight was ruined.
Luo Yu gave her a bag of snacks, "Are you surprised?"
Luo Qi smiled, "Surprised and delighted."
"You take it on the road to eat, and it's boring to drive alone."
Luo Yu put the snacks on the table, "Tomorrow Eleven, Party A's father said that he will not work overtime and give us a day off. We will not move for the time being. I have nothing to do. I will take you to the station. I will occupy your bed tonight."
"How did you find the house?"
"I came here to tell you the good news. I'm so lucky that I plan to buy a lottery ticket tomorrow." Luo Yu pointed to the building next door, "The agent called me today and said that there is a house for rent in 202 of the second unit, which expires at the end of this month. The tenant is a young lady who seems to have changed jobs, so living here is inconvenient for commuting.”
She lay down on the sofa, "I will be able to accompany you every day from now on." She decided to rent a house nearby because she wanted to accompany her cousin, and sometimes cook for her.
Not only did the date with the boss fail today, but all the dates in the rental house will probably fail in the future. When Luo Yu moves here, he can go here eight times a day.
"Have you eaten yet?" Luo Qi asked her cousin.
"Not yet, I'm so excited that I hurried over here by car." On the way, I went to the supermarket to buy snacks for my cousin, but I didn't have time to eat them.
"I'll cook noodles for you."
"No need." Luo Yu saw that her cousin's hair was half dry, it seemed that she had just taken a shower, "I cook it myself."
Pulling on her slippers, she hummed a song and went to the kitchen.
"By the way, sister." Luo Qi opened the kitchen door and poked her head out: "There is a man in your building who is so handsome."
"Never met."
"It's also the first time I saw him. He gave way to me. He was walking in front of me, but I ran upstairs, and he leaned against the wall to let me pass first."
Luo Qi went to the bedroom to get her mobile phone, when her cousin came over suddenly, she had to tell Jiang Shenghe.
Unexpectedly, he sent her a message two minutes ago: [Luo Yu should stay for a while? 】
【How do you know that Luo Yu is here? 】
Luo Qi came to her senses: [The person Luo Yu met on the stairs just now was you? 】
【Um. 】
[She lives here tonight, and will take me to the station tomorrow. 】
Take everything he wants to do tomorrow.
Jiang Shenghe: [Then rest early, I'll be back first, see you during the holidays. 】
If she went to the villa to find him tonight, and he had friends or relatives with him, he would definitely not let her wait outside, and he would not let her lose sight of him.
【Don't go yet. 】
[It doesn't matter if Luo Yu is here, you come up. 】
"Baby Yu, I have a colleague who came over and asked me for something."
She didn't have time to put on her coat, so she changed her shoes and went out.
"Male colleague or..." Female colleague?
Luo Yu came out of the small kitchen, before she finished speaking, the door was closed with a 'bang', and her cousin had already gone downstairs.
Across a door, she could hear her cousin's high-heeled shoes clattering anxiously down the stairs.
Jiang Shenghe didn't see the news in time, so he turned the car around.
"Boss Jiang!"
The windows were open, and the sound came through clearly.
Jiang Shenghe saw her from the car window, he stopped the car, but did not turn off the engine, she came out wearing only a short black knitted T-shirt, and he got out of the car with the suit of the passenger.
"Just call and tell. How did you get down?"
Rocky looked at him without saying a word.
Because any time, he would let her see him.
She also wanted to give him a little favor.
Perhaps, this little thing is not a preference at all.
"Isn't it cold if you wear so little?" He said, and he wanted to give her a suit.
"I'm afraid of heat."
"..."
Jiang Shenghe didn't force her to wear a suit.
Luo Qi asked him to park the car in the parking space and turn off the engine, "It's impossible not to meet acquaintances in the future, don't say what the relationship is, they think they are still in the pursuit stage."
Jiang Shenghe: "Come up next time. I have something to do when I get home."
If he was around, it would be inconvenient for them to talk.
Rocky: "Then drive slowly."
Jiang Shenghe nodded, looked at her, and got into the car in no hurry.
Luo Qi thought he still had something to say, but he didn't say anything after half a minute, and she pressed the side button of the phone randomly with her fingers.
The silence came suddenly and then spread.
He probably wanted to hug her, but was worried that she would reject her.
She took two steps forward, only half a step away from him. The strong hormonal aura on his body bewitches and oppresses people.
Without looking at him, Rocky said again, "Drive slowly."
Jiang Shenghe didn't know if she was really afraid of the heat or if she was too reserved to wear his clothes. Now that she was approaching, he unfolded the suit, wrapped her up and held her in his arms.
I didn't let go after hugging for a long time.
Luo Qi took a deep breath, and now even his nasal cavity was invaded by his breath.
"Boss Jiang."
"..." But still responded to her: "Yeah."
He added another one: "Don't call Mr. Jiang when you hug you from now on."
Luo Qi answered him seriously: "Okay."
Jiang Shenghe asked her, "What did you call me just now?"
"Get my hands out of the suit," she said after a pause, "I'll give you a hug."
Her words were enough, Jiang Shenghe was worried that she was cold, so he didn't let go, and hugged her even tighter.
