Chapter 242: Relief
"It's not cold, do you still think you're particularly amiable?" Bai Xiaojiu said, remembering how the two of them got along before.
I don't know why, when I think about it at this time, I feel a little funny inexplicably, and I can't help but smile at him, "At that time, I should have carried a mirror with me so that you could see how you look every time." ”
Li Zhe liked to see Bai Xiaojiu's smile very much, and laughed with her, "I just like the way you look, no matter what happens, you can face it with a smile." ”
Such a straightforward liking of two words made Bai Xiaojiu's expression pause, turned his head, took a puff of cigarette, and sprayed the smoke into the distance, "But in the end, how did you become a 'master' who stepped on a few boats?"
The bright sarcasm made Li Zhe smile, turned his head and continued to look outside the fence, his eyes swept wildly, and even began to ask himself.
When did it start? When did she know that she was in a stable relationship now and didn't even care too much about work?
Knowing that it is an excuse to suppress your feelings, a spur to make yourself work hard?
Li Zhe's heart was very confused, and he shook his head, after all, he knew in his heart that it was because of greed.
"Because, each of them has something like you. ”
This sentence is what Li Zhe has always said to himself, he didn't mean to be with so many people at the same time, he just couldn't control his liking.
If you can't get the source, then scatter it to like it, and put it together, it's the whole like, which is good.
Bai Xiaojiu was a little ridiculous, and looked at his own vision for the first time.
At first, she thought that Li Zhe was a good man, a man who worked hard and looked very good, and she was once a colleague.
Now think about Qi Jingchen's previous questioning that Li Zhe likes her, and she also denied it, because she thought Li Zhe was a workaholic.
Not at all, he is a man who can't even control his own heart, and puts all the blame on others.
Bai Xiaojiu suddenly felt that he was quite a bastard, too self-righteous?
She insisted on her opinion, didn't understand Qi Jingchen's feelings, and almost quarreled with him.
Now that I think about it, it's her who is at fault.
Apologize at noon?
Bai Xiaojiu thought that he was not familiar with Li Zhe, and once his thoughts involved Qi Jingchen, he suddenly drifted away, thinking about them wholeheartedly.
But this absent-minded appearance, in Li Zhe's eyes, was for what he said, and he was upset.
Li Zhe felt a little courage in his heart, and even more was happy, took a step forward, and said softly: "I have liked you for more than a year." I thought I'd do something to get results. Relationships are not allowed within the company, I don't want you to go, and I can't embarrass you. I thought, I just need to work hard to go up, or go to the R&D department, and then confess to you. ”
Bai Xiaojiu was awakened by his words, and looked at him a little speechlessly, not knowing why he suddenly said this.
I was still thinking about my boyfriend, but I was confessed by a colleague who I didn't know too well, this mood was a little complicated, and there was a little irritability.
Bai Xiaojiu licked his lips, thinking about how to interrupt him to Director Wen's office.
Anyway, he helped her, and she was about to leave the company, so she couldn't interrupt rudely, so that he felt that people should go to tea.
Li Zhe thought that Bai Xiaojiu's embarrassment was moved by his confession, and he was struggling in his heart at the moment, staring at her more intently, and whispered very movingly: "How do you know that Mu Xize appeared later, I know that I can't destroy you." I can only focus on you silently, concentrate on you, and hope that you can be happy. You know, he doesn't trust you at all. Xiao Jiu, I've liked you for a long time. I have only you in my heart, and no one else. No one can compare to you. ”
"I'm curious. When Bai Xiaojiu heard these words, he didn't feel moved at all, but felt disgusted when he thought of what he had been reported.
I feel even more blind, how can I think that such a person is a good man, and sure enough, people can't be good-looking.
"Curious about what?" Li Zhe swept Bai Xiaojiu back and forth, eager to get closer to her, and noticed that she took a step back, and quickly straightened up and left a little distance from her.
"How many girlfriends do you have?"
These words made Li Zhe's body pause, and he lowered his head in annoyance, like a child who had made a mistake, and muttered, "Three." But they are not as good as you combined. I only have you in my heart, and they are just your shadows!"
Bai Xiaojiu felt that Li Zhe's face had become ugly, and took a step back, not knowing how to answer, and even more crying and laughing.
Why didn't you see that he was this kind of person before?
"I think you're mistaken. I have a boyfriend now and I'm happy. I cared about you because I was grateful to you, to you for taking me in the first place, and to helping me as a manager. I don't mean anything else. ”
Bai Xiaojiu felt awkward looking at him now, and he didn't want to say more, so he tried to soften his tone.
Li Zhe knew what she meant, and when he saw her keep retreating, he smiled self-deprecatingly, nodded, and fell silent.
"Where's my daughter-in-law?" Qi Jingchen hurriedly walked over from the R&D department, glanced at Bai Xiaojiu's empty workstation, walked to Zheng Qing's side, knocked on the table, and asked softly.
"Smoking over there. Why did you come here? You can call and send messages. What's wrong?" Zheng Qinggang hung up the player's phone, recording things, his mind was a little messy, and when he saw Qi Jingchen appear, a bunch of questions suddenly popped up.
Qi Jingchen was wondering why Bai Xiaojiu and Zheng Qing were like conjoined babies, they usually smoked together, why did Bai Xiaojiu go alone this time.
Hearing Zheng Qing's question, he answered truthfully, "I have to work overtime at noon, I may be a little busy, come and talk to her, go to dinner early." ”
Speaking of this, Qi Jingchen paused for a moment and glanced at Zheng Qing a little reluctantly, "You two go eat at noon." She probably won't go alone. ”
Zheng Qing rarely goes to be a light bulb between them now, either bringing his own food, or casually finding two team members to eat together, and he is very happy to hear Qi Jingchen's explanation, "Okay." At noon, I will accompany Xiao Jiu to dinner, so you can work overtime with peace of mind. ”
"Who did she smoke with? Qi Jingchen muttered, seeing Zheng Qing's eyes roll, he chuckled in his heart.
"I talked to my manager about work. Zheng Qing rolled his eyes, smiled at him, and tried to pretend to be serious and answer.
Qi Jingchen looked at her like this, how did he feel uncomfortable, "I'll go find her." ”
"That is, whether I have any regard for telling you that I like you. You won't choose me?" Li Zhe looked at the coldness on Bai Xiaojiu's face, realized that he had misunderstood, and asked a little incredulously, but relieved.
"Hmm. I'm not a rabbit that eats grass next to the nest. Even if there are no company rules, I won't look for a boyfriend in the customer service department. Speaking of this, she saw that Li Zhe's eyes lit up, and hurriedly waved her hand, "Even if you are not in the customer service department, in the R&D department, I will not choose you." Our personalities don't fit in at first glance. ”
"Don't like you?" Li Zhe took a deep breath and looked at her with a deep gaze.
"Not at all likable. It's enough to be friends. If it weren't for the fact that you helped me, probably we would be the strangest colleagues. ”
Li Zhe smiled and nodded, "I understand." Got it. ”
He turned his head to look outside the fence and took a deep breath, then slowly turned his head to look at Bai Xiaojiu, and after a sweep, he saw a figure, pretending not to see it.
Chaobai Xiaojiu opened his hands and showed a slightly pitiful expression, "I'm leaving soon, can you give me one last hug?"
Qi Jingchen's footsteps quickly turned around the corridor of the work area, and as soon as he took two steps, he saw Li Zhe opening his arms towards Bai Xiaojiu, looking like he was going to hug her.
And Bai Xiaojiu, who was standing in front of him, was not hiding or avoiding at the moment, and was looking up at Li Zhe slightly, not knowing what his expression was.
Qi Jingchen was rushed to his head with anger almost instantly, his hands clenched into fists, looking at Li Zhe's face, ready to smash it down.
Bai Xiaojiu was slightly stunned, frowned and looked at Li Zhe, and found that he was very serious, so he hurriedly took two steps back, "I'm sorry, I don't like any goodbye hugs." Not in this habit. I don't want my boyfriend to misunderstand and be unhappy. I care about how he feels. ”
As he spoke, he stepped back, lest he suddenly rush up and hug her, and be seen by other colleagues, then he would be speechless.
Just took a few steps back and hit a wall of flesh, Bai Xiaojiu was startled, and said in his mouth, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." "As soon as I turned my head and was hugged from behind, I smelled a familiar smell.
Qi Jingchen never uses perfume, and he doesn't have any body fragrance, but he wears freshly washed clothes, and his body will be mixed with sunlight and laundry detergent, which smells very good.
Bai Xiaojiu was once very obsessed with this taste, and especially liked to hold him and smell him for a long time before he went out, until he couldn't help but kiss him for a long time, and then let him go.
Before she could scream, Qi Jingchen's voice sounded above her head, completely ignoring Li Zhe in front of her, "You didn't reply to the message I gave you, I'll come over and tell you, I can't eat with you at noon." I'm a bit busy, so I have to work overtime at night. You go to eat with Zheng Qing at noon, don't go hungry. ”
"Hmm. I see. You're not busy, why are you still running here?" Bai Xiaojiu responded with a well-behaved smile at him.
Qi Jingchen heard Bai Xiaojiu's words when he walked over, and he was in a good mood at the moment, and pinched her face, "Didn't you say that when you don't reply to the message, there must be something." The more I thought about it, the more worried I became, and I couldn't help but come over and take a look. It's fine. ”
"What can I do? Bai Xiaojiu muttered, took out his mobile phone and looked, sure enough, there were a few text messages from him, and he hadn't clicked on them yet, and when he saw that the time was already ten o'clock, he exclaimed, "No, I still have to go to the director's office." It's ten o'clock. I'll go to the office first and I'll talk to you later. ”
Bai Xiaojiu broke free from Qi Jingchen's arms, glanced at Li Zhe who was standing silently in place, pursed his mouth, didn't say anything, and ran away.
When she ran away, Qi Jingchen turned around and looked at Li Zhe slowly, smiled politely at him, waved his hand without paying any attention, and turned around and left.
Li Zhe stood in place and laughed self-deprecatingly, opened his arms and looked up at the ceiling, "Okay, relieved." ”
He could see Qi Jingchen's eyes that didn't take him seriously just now.
Thinking about Bai Xiaojiu's words again, I feel that I have nothing to be nostalgic for this company, it's good, it's over. Clean, no more worries, start over.
Li Zhe thought about it and put down his hand, looked in the direction where Bai Xiaojiu and Qi Jingchen left, and showed a relieved smile.
