MTL - Seventh Year of My Secret Love for You-Chapter 51

He memorized every word in the email.

Jiang Shenghe poured half a glass of red wine and drank it all in one gulp, barely suppressing the sourness in his nose.

She loves him is what he wants.

Put down the goblet, 【Thank you, wife. 】

Luo Qi was waiting for news from him. She was celebrating his birthday for the first time, and she was stuck in the email to him at zero o'clock. She also read it in the outbox just now.

It's 12:25 now, and he looked at her for so long before returning to her.

She said again: [Happy birthday. 】

Jiang Shenghe: [Haven't slept yet? 】

Luo Qi: [No, I have been with you all the time. 】

At this moment, he missed her more than ever.

I want to go to Sioux City to see her.

Jiang Shenghe suddenly thought that she said that she would get up early tomorrow, so she wondered if she would come back to celebrate his birthday with him.

【Luo Qi, I will go to Sioux City to see you tomorrow. 】

They haven't seen each other for more than ten days, and Luo Qi also misses him, 【I've already booked a ticket to go back with you. 】

She has been spinning around for the past few days, she is too tired, Jiang Shenghe won't let her come back, [Refund the ticket, I'll go find you. 】

Call someone to help him book a high-speed rail ticket to Sioux City tomorrow.

The plans were disrupted, and Luo Qi told him: [I also ordered a cake to be delivered to your office at noon tomorrow. 】

[It's okay, I will take it home at night and eat it with my family. 】

It was half past twelve, and after saying good night to Luo Qi, Jiang Shenghe sent a group email to the president's office, informing them that he would not go to the company tomorrow, and if he received any packages, he would sign for them and put them in his office.

Xiao Jiang didn’t sleep and was still surfing. The boss often didn’t go to the company, and sometimes it was not uncommon for two days in a week. He never sent an email to notify them, and emphasized that there was a package.

It seems that the package is important.

When they received work emails in the middle of the night, they pretended to be dead and didn't see them, and returned early the next morning.

Jiang Shenghe responded to a few messages that had stuck in the past and gave him blessings, which was comparable to the night when he confessed his love and proposal, he was so nervous that he couldn't sleep.

There is still half a pack of cigarettes on the desk, and he sometimes doesn't smoke a cigarette for days.

I poured one into my mouth and found that the lighter was missing.

The things he put on the table, the aunt and the workers at home never moved. It seems that Luo Qi hid his lighter.

Jiang Shenghe laughed, took down the cigarette and threw it into the trash can.

It was nearly two o'clock before he went to bed, and after four hours of sleep, the driver came to pick him up at the station.

This trip to Sioux City was very hasty, and I didn't have time to prepare gifts for Luo Qi's parents.

This Friday, Lu Bosheng had class, so he had to trouble He Xu.

He Xu laughed dryly, Jiang Shenghe really didn't treat him as an outsider.

The gift was chosen by Jiang Shenghe, and He Xu helped to go to the mall to buy it.

He Xu said with a smile: [In the future, if you hold a wedding, I will arrange it. 】

Jiang Shenghe: [It's not impossible. Don't tell me, you clean up pretty well. 】

He Xu: "..."

Luo Qi's news came in, 【Dinning at my house at noon. 】

When he got up in the morning, he told his parents that today was Jiang Shenghe's birthday, and he would not let her go back to Beijing, but came to Suzhou to see her. Without saying a word, my mother changed her clothes and went to the market to buy vegetables.

Father put on his apron and cleaned the house inside and out.

On the sunflower, the water droplets are crystal clear, and the water on the petals rolls a few drops onto the leaves.

Luo Zhiqiu pressed the watering can lightly a few times, but didn't press it to the bottom and the water didn't spray out. He was distracted for a few seconds, and suddenly turned to his daughter who was washing in the bathroom and said, "Jiang Shenghe came here for the first time, and it was his birthday. How about we go Restaurant to eat?"

Luo Qi turned off the tap, "Just eat at home. He has never eaten any restaurant food."

The family is small, Luo Zhiqiu is worried about poor hospitality.

Since his daughter insisted, he didn't say much.

"Dad, are you not going to the company?"

"I won't go." Luo Zhiqiu has been working without a break for the past month, and said with a smile, "I'll relax with you today." For more than seven years, the family has never been so relaxed and lively.

After a simple breakfast, Luo Qi went to the cake shop to order cakes, and Luo Zhiqiu also followed.

Luo Qi went out with her father on her arm. Every time she was on a business trip, there was a cake shop opposite the hotel where she stayed, five or six hundred meters away, and the father and daughter walked over.

Luo Zhiqiu tilted his head several times to talk to his daughter, but he hesitated to speak.

Luo Qi noticed her father's abnormality, "Dad, what's wrong?"

Luo Zhiqiu was a little embarrassed: "Do you think I should go to the barber shop to have my hair dyed?"

"Go, I'll accompany you." The last thing Luo Qi wanted to stare at was her father's hair. In his fifties, he has one-third of his gray hair.

I dyed my hair with my father, and went to pick up the cake.

Mother called to ask where they had been and why it took so long.

Luo Qi looked at her father who was more than ten years younger than her dyed black hair, and kept it a secret, "Go out for a walk, and I'll be home soon."

They went out with the keys and wanted to surprise their mother, so Rocky knocked on the door.

Jiang Yifang was blanching meat in the kitchen, when she heard her daughter's voice outside the door, she wiped her hands on her apron and turned down the fire, "Here we come."

Nagging: "You two don't bring the keys when you go out."

He opened the door, glanced at them, turned and walked towards the kitchen.

After walking a few steps, Jiang Yifang felt that something was wrong, and suddenly turned around, looking at her husband.

Luo Zhiqiu himself is not very used to it. In the past, his wife urged him to dye his gray hair more than once. He thought it was unnecessary, and it grew back soon after dyeing it. Not to mention a waste of money, it was also a waste of time.

"How about it, are you okay?"

Jiang Yifang was used to seeing him with white hair, but he was not used to having black hair at first glance.

"It's good." She smiled, "I'm very energetic, and I look like I'm in my early forties." This is what my husband used to be when he was in high spirits.

Luo Qi went back to the room, went to the closet to choose clothes, carefully recalled which skirt Jiang Shenghe hadn't seen her wear, and picked out one to change into.

Today is obviously his birthday, but their family dressed up grandly.

After changing her skirt, Luo Qi was ready to go to the station.

【Where are you? ] She asked Jiang Shenghe.

[You don't need to pick it up, the driver is already waiting at the station. 】

Luo Qi didn't go to the station, but waited for him in front of the flower shop.

Every time she stands here, she will think of the first time she and he came to Sioux City for a business trip. When they met him running in the morning, he came out of the convenience store next door with soda and said congratulations to her.

Looking forward to it, a black off-road vehicle appeared in the field of vision.

Jiang Shenghe wore the white shirt he wore on the day he received the certificate, with chic cufflinks.

Luo Qi didn't know how much this driver in Sucheng knew. In front of the driver, she didn't go up to hug Jiang Shenghe, but walked up to him, next to him, her windbreaker rubbing against his, "Happy birthday .”

Jiang Shenghe closed the car door with his backhand, and lowered his head to imprint on her lips.

He actually kissed her on the street, Luo Qi's breathing was stagnant, and the throbbing surged from the bottom of her heart, submerging her whole heart.

After reacting, she smiled and took half a step back.

Jiang Shenghe also smiled gently, and said, "It's early this morning, make it up now."

Luo Qi took another step forward, getting closer to him than before, "It's only right that you celebrate your twentieth birthday today." Only when you were young can your feelings be so passionate.

"Just be twenty-three years old." The year when I first met her.

Jiang Shenghe went to the trunk to get presents, and he couldn't carry them all by himself, so he gave the light ones to Luo Qi.

I prepared three gifts, and one for my neighbor, Grandma Qian.

I have passed the stone bridge several times. In the past, I was passing by, but today I am going home.

When Luo Zhiqiu heard the first knock on the door, he opened the door. The first time he saw Jiang Shenghe, he felt a sense of familiarity.

Maybe it's because she is married to her daughter? So it looks familiar?

"Hello, Uncle."

"Hello, come in."

Luo Qi prepared new slippers for him, Jiang Shenghe put them on and entered the house.

The living room is slightly larger than Rocky's rental house, but it has more things.

The kitchen is too small to fit the refrigerator, so it can only be placed in a corner of the living room, and a bookcase is placed next to the sofa. The piano that Rocky played when she was a child has no place to put it, it is next to the TV.

The house is full.

Fortunately, there is a window facing the river, and the scenery is good, even though it is small and crowded, it is not so depressing.

A walnut-coloured dining table sits against the wall, with a vase of five sunflowers at the end.

He heard from Luo Qi that the dining table became Aunt Jiang's temporary desk at night, and she worked overtime on it.

After exchanging greetings, Jiang Yifang went into the kitchen to continue working, Luo Zhiqiu helped.

Luo Qi took a cherry and put it in his mouth, "The first one is for the birthday boy."

Jiang Shenghe asked: "Can I go to your room and have a look?"

"What do you think?" Luo Qi gave him another cherry, "Good things come in pairs."

Next to the sofa is her door, she pushed it open, "Come in and take a look, it doesn't feel like seven or eight square meters."

Jiang Shenghe closed the door and put his arms around her, "Where's my lighter?"

"Um?"

Luo Qi pretended not to understand.

"Where did you hide my lighter?"

Luo Qi smiled, passed through the windbreaker, and wrapped it around his waist.

She asked him in turn: "I'm not at home, are you smoking again?"

"No smoking."

"You must have more than one lighter."

"I really didn't smoke."

Jiang Shenghe kissed her from the corner of his lips to between his lips.

Luo Qi raised her head, bit his lips and responded to him.

"The time is so fast, where do you have the time to buy gifts?"

"Let He Xu buy it."

"..."

The house is too small and there is no sound insulation, Jiang Shenghe let go of her, "Go out and talk."

Most of the dishes on the table were Jiang Shenghe's favourites, only three non-spicy dishes were prepared for Luo Qi.

Jiang Shenghe didn't make a wish, he didn't ask much, and all of them have been fulfilled.

Talking about Luo Zhiqiu's company during the meal, Jiang Shenghe asked concerned: "Are you still losing money?"

Still losing money, but orders have increased. "I guess it will be next year."

Jiang Shenghe actually knows the situation of his father-in-law's company clearly. It was Lingjia Capital who provided the financing at the beginning, and the gambling agreement was also signed with Lingjia Capital.

He had met Luo Zhiqiu seven years ago, and had a quick meeting at the law firm. At that time, Luo Qi had already returned to China, and Luo Zhiqiu had just undergone surgery not long ago, so he was too thin to look good.

Luo Zhiqiu didn't know who he was. There were other people in the lawyer's office at that time, so he probably didn't remember him long ago.

After Luo Zhiqiu's company went bankrupt, suppliers came to block people one after another, and they continued to make trouble on and off for more than half a year.

He asked Uncle Xu for help to settle the arrears of the payment, negotiated privately with several large suppliers, and they withdrew all the lawsuits.

After the company went bankrupt, he could settle everything he could. Most of the 30 million that Luo Qi had been repaying over the past few years were loans under Luo Zhiqiu's personal name, and there was nothing he could do.

At that time, Uncle Xu didn't understand and made fun of him a lot.

To him, solving these matters is nothing more than a few favors, but to Luo Qi, it may crush her for the rest of her life.

Thirty million has suppressed their family for seven years.

At that time, he didn't think too much about it, he liked it and didn't want her to be dragged down by debts.

Luo Zhiqiu didn't dare to drink now, Jiang Shenghe didn't drink either, and respected him with water: "Uncle, you are in good health."

"Thank you." Luo Zhiqiu almost finished drinking half a glass of water.

After the birthday meal, Jiang Shenghe sat down for a while, and Luo Qi sent him to the station.

He promised his mother to go home for dinner at night, and his mother started preparations yesterday, so he couldn't make her happy in vain.

This year's birthday is the most grand, celebrated in Sioux City at noon, and returned to Beijing to celebrate in the evening.

Luo Qi drove Jiang Shenghe off in her father's car, Jiang Shenghe opened the passenger door, "Luo Qi, come and sit, I will drive."

Before getting in the car, he took off his windbreaker and planned to put it in the back seat, Luo Qi stretched out his hand, "Give it to me, I'll take it."

Since she left the president's office, she never took his clothes for him.

Sitting in the co-pilot, she turned his windbreaker over in front of her.

Jiang Shenghe glanced at her from time to time, and she leaned back in the seat to enjoy looking out of the car.

"When you go back, I will give you a small gift."

Luo Qi turned her head, eager to know, "What gift?"

"I won't tell you yet."

"I'll tell you where the lighter is."

Jiang Shenghe smiled, "A conditional exchange?"

"Yeah." Luo Qi sat sideways, looking forward to it: "Tell me first."

"Tell me there will be no surprises."

Luo Qi guessed all the way, guessed everything she could think of, and arrived at the station? I still haven't guessed correctly.

Unbuttoning the seat belt, she kissed him twice on the neck, "Plant two strawberries. See you the day after tomorrow."

Jiang Shenghe hugged her and told her to drive carefully.

The high-speed train started, and before it left Sucheng, Jiang Shenghe received a message from Luo Qi, 【Husband, is the little gift you gave me a pet dog? 】

Only pets haven't guessed yet.

Jiang Shenghe asked back: [Do you like pet dogs? 】

Rocky: [Well, it’s okay. 】In fact, I really want to raise two.

She asked again: [What about you? 】

Jiang Shenghe: [Same as you. 】

She can guess at pets, she should like them.

He asked in the group of friends: [Which family of yours has a dog? recommend it. 】

Qin Moling: [You want to raise? 】

【Um. Rocky liked it. 】

Everyone: "..."

They can't remember what Jiang Shenghe likes, but they know Luo Qi's likes clearly, and they get to know them passively in the group every day.

Qin Moling was in Jian Hang's office at the moment, raised his eyes and asked her: "Have you been in contact with Luo Qi recently?"

Jian Hang was playing a game, "No. What's wrong?"

"Jiang Shenghe is a bit abnormal. He has not caught up with him yet, and he wants to raise a dog."

"..."

Jian Hang said: "The next time you meet, you should observe them carefully and see if they have made any progress."

"Why am I staring at them." It was Jiang Shenghe, he would care a little more, and it had nothing to do with him to talk to someone else, who to talk to, or not to talk to.

He is busy enough with his own affairs, how can he have time to care about others.

"He's going to catch up with Luo Qi, so he has to post announcements in the group for three days in a row."

Qin Moling looked at the group news, then looked up at Jian Hang again, "What about you?"

"What?"

"Do you want a dog?"

"don't want."

The chat in the group was full of enthusiasm, and all the dog owners at home came out.

Jiang Shenghe got to know all kinds of pet dogs, but he didn't know which one Luo Qi liked, Samoyed or Alaska or something else.

On the evening of the 4th, Luo Qi came back from a business trip.

He Xu didn't come back with her, he said he still had something to do in Sucheng and he wanted to stay for a few more days.

After waiting for two days, it was finally revealed what the little gift Jiang Shenghe gave her was.

When they arrived at the villa, Jiang Shenghe hadn't come back from the company yet.

She went to the study to find the lighter and gave it to him, but she hid it behind the oil painting.

There were no small gifts from her in the study or bedroom, and she had nothing to do when he came back, so she went to the yard to see the little pumpkins, which were growing gratifyingly.

As night fell, Jiang Shenghe's car drove into the yard.

Luo Qi went up to meet him, but he came down empty-handed.

Jiang Sheng laughed, "Didn't find it?"

Luo Qi refused to admit it, "I didn't look for it at all, and I forgot about the gift."

After she finished speaking, she laughed and was pulled into his arms by him.

Luo Qi raised her head from his arms, stretched her hands up the sleeves of his windbreaker, and covered her hands inside, "What the **** is it? You've been cheating for days."

"One last guess. You should really want it."

Strawberry and pet dog.

Strawberries are out of the question, and he hasn't bought a pet dog yet.

I really can't guess.

Jiang Shenghe let her go and went to the trunk to get a small gift.

Luo Qi followed, and he took out a pot and handed it to her, "This pot is raised by the shop owner, and it can be picked and eaten in two days." He took out another pot, "This pot is raised by myself, it should be eaten." I can live." Dozens of small green strawberries are attached to the branches and have not yet grown up.

The small flower pot is very delicate, she wanted to grow strawberries, so he raised potted strawberries for her.

Luo Qi held it in her hand, "I thought you didn't understand."

"I didn't understand at first."

He thought it was planting strawberries in his neck, but later she said that she likes to eat strawberries.

Jiang Shenghe said: "I originally wanted to grow it in the planting equipment, but it is more convenient to plant it in a flowerpot, and you can take it to the company to take care of it."

A small gift that is not worth much, but he is willing to put his mind to it.

Luo Qi freed her hand and hugged him with one hand.

Jiang Shenghe gave her the other pot, bent down, and hugged her up.

I haven't been together for more than ten days, and I miss her a long time ago.

The small potted plant was temporarily placed in the living room, and the two went upstairs kissing each other.

Jiang Shenghe closed the bedroom door with his feet, and pulled out the shirt from his trousers with one hand.

The bathroom door was half closed.

The mist was steaming.

After washing her hair, her whole back was stuck in Jiang Shenghe's arms.

She turned her head, and Jiang Shenghe's kiss fell on her lips.

He turned her around, picked her up, and kissed her earlobe.

Coaxing her, enter carefully.

The flower umbrella soaked the two of them.

The next day, Luo Qi went to work with two small potted plants.

When I met Lu Rui while waiting for the elevator, Lu Rui stared at the potted plants in her hands. She hadn't come to the company for so long, so she brought two pots of strawberries.

She also went to the R&D center when she went to Sioux City, and left after staying for more than an hour.

I don't know what she has been doing these days.

He inquired with a reliable person, and the Yuanwei Group has no plans to arrange for other people to come over for the time being. It seems that they want to consume Ruipu and let Ruipu fend for itself.

The elevator stopped, and Luo Qi stepped out of the elevator first.

In the multifunctional area, there is an eyesore.

Cui Peng came to deliver materials, this time he was on a business trip.

"Mr. Lu." She greeted with a smile.

"Please stop." She said to Luo Qi, "Our president gave it to you, please sign for it."

There was a pen in the multifunctional rest area, Luo Qi put down the potted plant and signed it.

Lu Rui didn't want to be targeted, so he hurried back to his office.

Cui Peng said in a low voice: "I just found out that we, Lingjia Capital, invested in the company your father has a stake in, and signed a gambling agreement. If the profits stipulated in the agreement are not reached, your father will lose everything."

Luo Qi didn't answer, and the next time she talks to her, it's when she gets out.

My father just took a break when he lost his company.

Cui Peng crossed his arms, "You are in Ruipu for a day, I am afraid you will see me for a day. Either you leave Ruipu, you don't want to see me, and I don't want to see you. Or, you cooperate well with Lu Rui's work, From now on, I will not mess with you."

"You want Ling Jia to replace Rui Pu, it's impossible." She applied to be in charge of Rui Pu's affairs in the first place just to make it easier to chase Lu Rui.

It's not that no one is chasing her, but compared with Lu Rui, she is far behind.

"It's even more impossible for Ling Jia to leave me."

Xu Xiangyi, the boss of Lingjia Capital, is her cousin-in-law's uncle. The cousin and cousin-in-law have a very good relationship with Xu Xiangyi's family. When he joined Lingjia, it was the cousin-in-law who mentioned something to his uncle.
