31. Yan Shu's confession

Yan Shu suddenly wanted to ask him in person, and the coldness in his eyes was also blown away by the night wind when he remembered Chen Chen.

Back in the hotel office, Yan Shu returned to his previous work status, and did not pack up his materials and prepare to rest until two o'clock in the morning.

Walking to the elevator, he suddenly didn't want to go home, and instead went to the lounge prepared for Chen Chen before, which was prepared for the convenience of Chen Chen after going to see Qin Huizhen, without having to run home to the hotel and run back and forth. It's not a lot of space, nothing good compared to the luxurious suites downstairs, but overall cozy.

"Let's be here tonight." Yan Shu sat on the sofa, poured himself a glass of water, and thought to himself, it would be too troublesome to go back now.

After several days of high-speed operation, even though he was already accustomed to a busy life, he also felt tired under the backlog of Wen JiΓ n.

The next day, Yan Shu deliberately finished the appointment before Chen Chen went to work, and after talking about work, he rushed to the lounge to see Chen Chen, like those impulsive high school students, in order to see the person he liked, he didn't stop breathing.

As soon as Chen Chen arrived at the lounge to change into work clothes, he heard a knock on the door, but he didn't expect it to be Yan Shu.

Chen Chen was slightly stunned and stood at the door: "Mr. Yan? How did you get here? ”

Yan Shu slightly pulled the corners of his mouth: "What, I am not welcome?" ”

"No, no, no. Come on in. ”

Chen Chen took a few steps back, joking, the entire hotel is Yan Shu, and the lounge is also provided by him, and Chen Chen can still drive him out.

Taking advantage of Yan Shu's walk-in, Chen Chen secretly glanced at him a few times, and he didn't feel good in his heart. These days, he has been dodging Yan Shu, and it has not been a long time since the two of them have been alone in a small room.

Sitting down on the sofa, Yan Shu rubbed his eyebrows, and his exhaustion could no longer be concealed.

Chen Chen sighed and sat down as well: "Mr. Yan, I see that your face has not been very good recently, is something happening, or is your workload too big and tired?" ”

Yan Shu shook his head and didn't speak, he didn't want to lie to Chen Chen, and he didn't want Chen Chen to worry about him.

But since Chen Chen could see that he was not good-looking, and he was his boss and friend who took special care of him on weekdays, he naturally couldn't sit idly by, and asked with concern: "I think you must have been too busy with work recently, so you can't find someone to share the burden for you?" ”

Shaking his head, Yan Shu cheered up: "I'm not busy with anything, it's just that I've been under a lot of pressure recently, as long as this period of time has passed, you don't have to worry." ”

"How can you not worry, look at your face, what it looks like ugly, and your dark circles are about to turn into pandas."

As soon as Chen Chen was excited, the tone in which he usually spoke to Lu Chen also came out, and he couldn't stop all kinds of roars, not noticing Yan Shu's sweet expression when he heard him say these words.

Yan Shu heard Chen Chen's slightly reproachful concern, his heart was very sweet, and he smiled unconsciously, he felt that there was still hope for himself and Chen Chen, at least Chen Chen's concern was true. Something in his heart was growing irrepressibly, rapidly taking over his reason.

On the other end, Chen Chen didn't notice anything wrong after he spoke, and looked at Yan Shu's expression a little strangely, and he didn't speak, so he simply stood up and went to make him a cup of tea.

"Well, here you go, you'll be a little more refreshed after drinking. There's a lot of work to be done today, right? Why do I think you've been so busy lately, haven't you been quite idle? ”

Taking the teacup from Chen Chen's hand, Yan Shu took a sip gently, it was still very hot, and put it on the coffee table, and then sighed: "Aisen has become popular because of the food festival, and now many cooperation projects are coming, but the tree is very popular, and there are also many people who are secretly making small moves to beat Aisen's idea." Dealing with this every day, I don't notice my body. ”

Chen Chen was speechless: "I see if you didn't sleep at all last night, your body is the capital of the revolution, and if you go on like this, you will lose your capital sooner or later." ”

He frowned, he was really worried about Yan Shu's physical condition, out of the natural concern between friends, and there were no other distracting thoughts. But this qiΔ“, from Yan Shu's point of view, is a kind of response from Chen Chen's to him, as if to encourage him to continue, and if he persists for a while, he will succeed.

In order to thank Yan Shu for his kindness, Chen Chen wanted to take the initiative to shake Yan Shu's hand and take the opportunity to see what materials he needed to replenish his body.

Thinking like this, Chen Chen had an idea, and when he saw Yan Shu picking up the tea and preparing to test the temperature again, he grabbed his hand.

"What's wrong?" Yan Shu didn't know his purpose, nor did he know that he had the ability to do this, and his face was full of doubts.

What made Chen Chen speechless was that he didn't have a particularly sensitive feeling in the past, and the moment he touched the back of Yan Shu's hand, there were no ingredients flashing in his mind, this shouldn't be!

Feeling strange, Chen Chen simply asked directly: "Can I shake your hand?" ”

Yan Shu was slightly stunned, reacted immediately, and stretched out his hand: "Of course, what's wrong?" ”

Chen Chen shook hands with him, this time, the ingredients were immediately imprinted in his mind, it was still a kind of medicinal food, the materials were rehmannia, yam, wolfberry, millet, and the medicinal materials in it were specially designed to help people who stayed up late regulate qi and blood, especially rehmannia, which was flat into the spleen and regulated qi and blood. He secretly wrote down those things before letting go of Yan Shu's hand. But in Yan Shu's opinion, these are all hints from Chen Chen to him, so he doesn't plan to be silent and hide anymore.

"Chen Chen?" Yan Shu called his name and looked at him tightly, but he was unwilling to let go of Chen Chen's hand, and when he was about to withdraw from it, he reached over and grabbed it tightly, and called him in a low voice.

Being held by Yan Shu, Chen Chen immediately pulled out hard, but failed to pull it out, and the atmosphere suddenly became embarrassing.

"I don't mean anything else, I just want to shake your hand. Mr. Yan, can you let go of my hand now? ”

Chen Chen was uncomfortable, especially as the temperature of Yan Shu's palm entered his senses, there were also various medicinal materials and ingredients, which made his brain extremely chaotic, and he couldn't wait to run away.

Yan Shu paused, but still chose to let go of Chen Chen's hand, but his gaze never took off Chen Chen's body.

Realizing that the atmosphere was getting weirder and weirder, Chen Chen felt that he could no longer be alone with Yan Shu, so he quickly shook his hand and stood up, his eyes unnaturally avoiding Yan Shu's eyes.

"That's, that'...... My time for work is approaching, so I'll go down and get ready. Mr. Yan, please take care of yourself. Unconsciously using honorifics, Chen Chen disappeared in front of Yan Shu with a smoke.

At this time, Yan Shu took a sip of tea, looked at the palm of his right hand that was held by Chen Chen just now, and showed a gentle smile.

His coldness was about to be melted away by Chen Chen, this feeling was both strange and sweet, and he was willing to change for the sake of one person. After staying in the lounge for a while, Yan Shu got up and returned to his office, still thinking about the touch of Chen Chen's fingertips, and the throbbing became clearer and clearer.

After escaping from the lounge, Chen Chen did not immediately go to the back kitchen, but went to the rooftop to blow the wind, what happened recently was a bit beyond his imagination, he needed someone to take a break.

"I feel like my outlook on life is going to collapse!" Chen Chen said to himself, "Ah! Why me, embarrassed to death, why is it me? ”

After examining himself, Chen Chen still couldn't understand why Yan Shu, a high-ranking and cold male god, would be interested in him.

"Could it be that my appearance is too high and I have captured his heart? Ahh Phew, even if I'm good-looking, I'm not so attractive to men. No, no, is Yan Shu taking affectionate mistakes as good feelings? ”

Chen Chen unfolded his brain, and he couldn't stop guessing, and finally came to a conclusion, that is, no! Yes! Knot! Discuss! God knows where he attracted Yan Shu, he looked at the sky and shouted "Ah", and his heart was a lot happier.

This person, it's always not going well, no one chased him before, and he felt lonely when he didn't have friends, but now he likes his own two people, and they're both of the same sex, but he feels annoyed.

A person's heart is so big, Lu Chen has already occupied his small heart, and now he naturally can't tolerate others.

"Anyway, I just need to repay him for his kindness, and then keep my friends at a distance, if he doesn't tell me, I'll pretend I don't know, haha, that's a good idea." Chen Chen clapped his hands, ready to go to the back kitchen, and thought, sure enough, artists always like to stay on the rooftop, and the mood is different when standing here.

Back in the back kitchen, it was almost time to go to work, Chen Chen began to cook according to the customer's orders again, and gradually became busy, plus he was like a three-second memory of this aspect of things, and he forgot that he was still struggling with how to face Yan Shu, and concentrated on work.

After waiting for a qiΔ“ to be almost done, Chen Chen asked the assistant chef to go to the pharmacy outside to stay for some cooked and dried rehmannia and came back, but fortunately, other things are more commonly used, so there is no need to buy them.

Chen Chen washed all the ingredients, peeled the yam and cut it into small pieces, then soaked it in water with the millet and the yam respectively, and poured the millet and yam into the casserole together with the water. After boiling over high heat, turn to low heat and boil for 40-50 minutes, the rice is rotten and flowering, the porridge is also very thick, and wolfberries are added.

Rehmannia takes longer to boil, so use another pot to boil slowly, and when it is ready, pour the medicinal juice into the boiled porridge, afraid that the taste will not be good, Chen Chen added some licorice into it.

Because Chen Chen's working hours are relatively special, when he is ready, the people around him are still busy, and the front hall is still very lively, in order not to affect the work of others, Chen Chen has to bite the bullet and send the medicinal food to Yan Shu himself.

Standing at the door of Yan Shu's office, Chen Chen was still hesitating, he always felt that he should avoid Yan Shu, but now that they had come up, he couldn't run in vain, and he was really worried about Yan Shu's body.

"Chef Chen, what are you doing here?" The female secretary had met Chen Chen several times, and had heard a lot of gossip about Yan Shu and Chen Chen, and when she saw Chen Chen standing at the door of Yan Shu's office, she greeted him very familiarly.

Chen Chen was slightly stunned, and then lifted the food box in his hand a little higher and shook it: "Send some food to Mr. Yan, I just don't know if it will disturb his work." ”

The secretary smiled sweetly: "Someone finally remembered Mr. Yan's life and death, he always forgot to eat at the beginning of work, now it's okay, if you send it to him, he will definitely eat it obediently." Let's go in, it just so happens that I'm going to get the text JiΓ n too. ”

Without waiting for Chen Chen to refuse, the secretary pushed open the door of the office and said, "Your Excellency, Chef Chen has specially brought you dinner." As he spoke, he smiled ambiguously again.

When Yan Shu saw Chen Chen, he was so happy that he didn't bother to pay attention to the secretary's ridicule, pointed to the text placed in the corner, and said to her, "It's all there, you can take it away." ”

After the secretary left and closed the door, the two fell into a moment of silence.

Or Yan Shu reacted first, and coughed dryly: "This is what you specially prepared for me?" The joy in his tone was like that of a child who had won candy, and with his cold face, it was a little incongruous.

"Ah, that's right, I saw that your face was very bad just now, so I specially asked someone to help bring some medicinal herbs over, and stewed a pot of medicinal food for you, so as to clear the false fire that you stayed up all night to boil, and your body felt better."

"Really?" Yan Shu took the food box from his hand and put it on the desk, and slowly approached Chen Chen, "Then I have to thank you well." ”

Ever since he knew Yan Shu's feelings for him, Chen Chen began to resist his close contact, and now he stepped back directly.

Yan Shu naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity, and tried to hold him in his arms, but he avoided him, so he said eagerly: "Chen Chen, thank you for the medicinal food you specially prepared for me, I am very moved." I, we ......"

Yan Shu didn't think that he would also have a stuttering day.

"Can we be together? I've liked you for a while now. This sentence finally came out of his mouth.

Chen Chen knew that there was no room for recovery if the matter was broken, and he and Yan Shu were not suitable to work together anymore.

Yan Shu saw that Chen Chen was silent, so he continued to launch an offensive: "You specially prepared medicinal food for me, don't you also feel a little bit about me if you care about me so much?" Why are you avoiding me? ”

Chen Chen didn't know how to open his mouth to refuse so as not to hurt people, and in the face of Yan Shu at this time, the pressure increased dramatically.

Yan Shu pressed forward step by step, Chen Chen was helpless, so he had to emphasize again: "Mr. Yan, I said before that I am already engaged, and there is no possibility of further progress between us except for friends." ”

"I don't believe you're engaged, you've been working in Aisen for a long time, but you've never seen your fiancΓ©e come to see you, Chen Chen, I know it's just your excuse. What exactly are you worried about? I like you, I'll be good to you, just good to you. ”

It is said that the cold male god is the most charming when he puts down his body and says sweet words, but at this time, Chen Chen was not only not moved by Yan Shu's fancy confession, but was extremely panicked.

Since he didn't expect Yan Shu to have a showdown in this situation, since he met Lu Chen, all his feelings were focused on him, and he didn't pay attention to the feelings around him, and it was a little difficult to face it suddenly.

"This is not an excuse, but a fact, whether you believe it or not, Mr. Yan, I am already engaged, and it is impossible for me to break my marriage contract."

Just kidding, he still has a "crystallization of love" in his stomach now, he doesn't want to be a monster in the eyes of earthlings, besides, Lu Chen is really to his heart.

When he thought of Lu Chen, Chen Chen felt warm in his heart.

Chen Chen's unusually strict expression still had an effect, and Yan Shu immediately froze.

"Even if what you say is true, I don't want to believe it, and if you're engaged, I can't be unaware. I know, I can't accept this from you suddenly, but it's okay with me, Chen Chen, I can wait, wait until you think clearly, how about it? Yan Shu looked at him gently.

"No, you can't believe me, I'm telling the truth. Alas, forget it, if you don't believe it, forget it, but don't wait for me, we can only be friends with each other. ”

After speaking, Chen Chen turned his head and left, leaving only the warm medicinal food on the desk to accompany Yan Shu.

Finally leaving Yan Shu's sight, Chen Chen rushed to the elevator in one breath and breathed a sigh of relief: Damn, it's too terrifying to be confessed by the iceberg man! And he is also his top boss, Chen Chen has a feeling of panic.

"Chef Chen, why did you come out so quickly?" The female secretary had something missing, and she was just struggling with whether to disturb their two-person world when she saw Chen Chen talking to herself alone.

"Huh? I'll give the food box to Mr. Yan and come out. It's been a long time since I've got off work, so let's go first, bye-bye! Chen Chen almost got into the elevator at the speed of escape.

Looking at the elevator door that had been closed, the female secretary smiled: "What a lovely person, well, this type of boy, no wonder Yan is always excited." Alas...... It's another strange relationship. ”

She didn't know the inside story, and secretly sighed that it was not good to be a single dog these days, she was abused by her brother and sister-in-law when she went home, and she was abused by her boss at work, and there is no room for single dogs to survive!
