Chapter 37: Détente
"Berlin, what are you looking at?" Zhu Siqi followed Berlin's gaze and looked out the door, but saw nothing.
"Oh, nothing." Berlin retracted her gaze and said lightly, she didn't want outsiders to peek into her state of mind.
"Oh~ By the way, Berlin, shall we go out tonight?" Zhu Siqi didn't care about the invitation again after the last time, and she didn't know what was going on, but she was full of curiosity about this guy who came back from abroad, not only her determination to give up Oxford, but also her blind eye to her frequent overtures.
Berlin frowned slightly, "No, I have something to do in the evening, and now it's almost time to go to class, don't talk." ”
"Class, oops, I almost forgot" Zhu Siqi exclaimed, and immediately got up and said loudly, "Students, Teacher Deng has something to do today, so today's two classes have been changed to self-study"
After the announcement, the whole class suddenly became noisy, there were happy and worried, only Berlin felt cold as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, could it be that Sister Yi had reached such a point and did not want to see me
"Berlin, Berlin, what do you want? Ah, by the way, I also found out about this last Friday, Mr. Deng can't find you, so you don't have to think too much about Berlin. After Zhu Siqi sat down, she saw that Berlin's face was not very good, thinking that she minded this matter, and immediately explained.
And Berlin, who was thinking about it a lot, felt that his body was stiff when he heard this, "No, it's okay"
"It's really okay, I look at your face"
"It's really fine, let's study on your own." Berlin smiled and said, but only she knew how far-fetched that smile was, and suddenly thought of what Mommy had said to her the night before, and maybe it was okay to say yes
On Saturday, the whole family ate together as usual, and after dinner, Shen Yanqi called Berlin into the study, and Berlin was accustomed to this and didn't feel inappropriate, so he followed, "Mommy, do you have any advice?" ”
Shen Yanqi stared at Berlin for a long time before she spoke, "Lin Lin, you see that the Zhou family now has Zihan and Chu Yao taking care of it, and your Aunt Qing's Xiao Chen has gradually taken over, do you think?"
"Mommy, do you mean to let me take over the Shen clan too?" There is no need for Shen Yanqi to continue, Berlin has already guessed.
Shen Yanqi nodded to herself, seeing Berlin's hurried look, she hurriedly said, "Don't think about refusing first, in fact, I've been thinking about this for a while, and I'm also thinking about whether to wait for you to reach your senior year After all, you are still focusing on your studies, but I think that sooner or later I want you to take over, it is better to let you now, and your grades are good, there is no problem of failing the zài exam at all, what do you say, Lin Lin?" ”
"I" Berlin swallowed, what did he say, this reason was vetoed by Mommy one by one, not that he really wanted to refuse, but that he really took over, wouldn't he have lost a lot of time with Sister Yi, thinking of this, Berlin still retorted, "Mommy, I think it's better to wait, you see, I'm not like Mommy when I wear a formal suit like Mommy, you're not as presidential, besides, I'm half of my junior year, you're in a hurry, I'm only half a year to play, Mommy, you bear it~" In the end, Berlin still used her powerful weapon - coquettishness.
I have to say that this weapon is still quite useful to Shen Yanqi, after all, who can refute it under the coquettishness of the child, not to mention the important ghost spirit who has been cute since he was a child, "Okay, okay, although it's early, but after all, there is no harm, but you just promised Mommy, half a year, you will take over in half a year, but now you have nothing to do, you can go to the company to go around, and some projects are also involved, it just so happens that the one in Zihan's family is okay now, you, Zihan, and Xiaochen all grew up together, and you can follow and learn." ”
"Huh~~ Mommy didn't have this, I want it now, but Mommy, you said you didn't have this idea before, why did you come suddenly" Berlin suddenly squinted and looked at Shen Yanqi.
Sure enough, I saw Shen Yanqi brushing her hair a little unnaturally, this subconscious move, Berlin understands, don't understand anymore, and don't wait for Shen Yanqi to speak, he directly ran out and asked, "Is it Zheng Chen?" ”
Shen Yanqi raised her head violently and didn't speak, but this action has also shown that it is Zheng Chen, Berlin is angry, she said, recently this Zheng Chen didn't come to trouble herself, she still felt strange, and thought she had changed, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, you are waiting for me here!!
"People Xiaochen is also good for you, after all, they are all acquaintances~" Shen Yanqi saw Berlin's smiling appearance and knew that there must be something going on between these two people, hey~ In fact, when it comes to this matter, it was really Zheng Chen's proposal, and he suddenly came to find him last week, and he thought it was a big deal, but he didn't expect it to be Berlin's business, not to mention that although these two guys have been pinching since childhood, this relationship seems to be really good
"Good for me? Hmph, I see that she doesn't tear me out of the skin, I'm thankful, I don't care, anyway, Mommy, you promised me, half a year!! Berlin was dissatisfied.
"Yes, half a year, but do you want to know my request?" Shen Yanqi looked at Berlin funny, still full of childishness, and then looked at Zihan and Xiao Chen's gestures, and then looked at her own this, hey, I really shouldn't have relented and agreed.
"Well, then Mommy is fine, I'm out." Berlin drooped his head and said, this mommy's decision is really a lot that can be refuted, in fact, it's not okay to find my mother, my mother must have a way, Berlin, who thought about it like this, suddenly felt better again, but unfortunately before her hand touched the door, she was directly hit by Shen Yanqi's next sentence to her grandmother's house.
"Call your mother over" Shen Yanqi looked at Berlin's changing face with amusement, this child's mind has a thorough understanding, if you want to call your mother, then I want to shout so that you have no one to ask for.
At the same time, Mr. Deng, who had something to do, was at the gate of Yuewei Publishing House at the moment, not that she was nervous, but she suddenly remembered that the dean's daughter was not Berlin's mother, why did she hide and meet people related to Berlin, but then again, she still had a little impression of Berlin's mother, when she came to Berlin when she was a child, she happened to meet her, she was a woman with an outstanding temperament, she didn't expect to be the editor-in-chief of Yuewei, and she deserved to be the daughter of Principal Bai and the dean, but Berlin, When he thought of Berlin, the first thing that came to mind was the energetic and silly smiling face, and he found himself thinking of Berlin again, and Dunriy quickly shook his head and tried to drive Berlin out of his head
"Hello, I'll look for your editor-in-chief, my surname is Deng, Deng Liyi, I have contacted me before and said that I came over on Monday." Dunriyi walked up to the front desk and asked.
"Hello, I wonder which editor-in-chief you're looking for?" The front desk lady asked politely.
Which one? Isn't there one editor-in-chief, but several? Oops, I forgot to ask the dean her daughter's name, "May I ask if your editor-in-chief has the surname Bai?" "Deng Liyi is also smart, since she is the daughter of the dean, she must also be surnamed Bai, but she always feels that something is wrong
"Editor-in-chief Bai, then you take the elevator over there to the eighteenth floor, and I'll just report to you." The front desk lady was still very polite.
"Okay, thank you~" Deng Liyi thanked him and went straight to it.
"Editor-in-chief Bai, a Miss Dunriyi came to you and said that she had made an appointment." Yaoyao knocked on the door of the cypress wood, and the assistant who was originally only the editor-in-chief of Zhou became two people, and her seat was also arranged in the middle of the two.
"Miss Deng?" Kashiwagi looked up and said in confusion, but then ordered, "You invite her in first."
"Hello, Editor-in-Chief Bai, I am Deng Liyi and I was recommended by the Foreign Language Department of S University." Deng Riyi thought that he would meet the person he remembered, but how did the person in front of him look at it, how could he not be Berlin's mother
"Oh, you are alas, you have found the wrong person, you should go to the editor-in-chief Zhou just across the corner" Kashiwagi understood it, but this piece is not his responsibility, so hurry up and let someone find Zhou Tongtong.
"Kashiwagi, you are a dead man, you give it again, yes, there are guests, so you can talk about it first." Zhou Tongtong angrily took a Wen Jiàn clip, and just pushed away the cypress office, and when he was about to yell, he saw Deng Liyi and couldn't help but be stunned.
"Don't go that Miss Deng, this is the editor-in-chief Zhou you are looking for, Miss Zhou Tongtong." Kashiwagi said with a smile.
And Deng Liyi, who was obviously frightened by the scene just now, was stunned, the two people who had just made a big noise were actually the editor-in-chief of Yuewei, there would be no mistake!!
"Hello, I'm Zhou Tongtong, you are Mr. Deng Liyi Deng of S University, my mother has already told me about your situation." Zhou Tongtong coughed lightly and stepped forward, changing the previous image of a shrew, as if she was a steady and successful person.
"Ah, hello" Deng Liyi hurriedly stretched out his hand, and couldn't help but secretly admire Zhou Tongtong's sudden change, but at the same time, he had questions about how the dean's daughter could be surnamed Zhou, and she just shouted the cypress who was sitting, cypress
"Then what's going to my office, Kashiwagi invited me to dinner at noon." Zhou Tongtong didn't forget to shout to Baimu before leaving.
"Tongtong, you just exploit me!!" Kashiwagi subconsciously roared, startling Dunriyi who was waiting outside the door again.
Needless to say, Zhou Tongtong himself was very satisfied with the person introduced by Bai Ma, and after a few simple words, Zhou Tongtong happily made a contract with Deng Liyi, as a translator who did not sit in class.
After returning to school, although Deng Liyi still had doubts about the two editors-in-chief, he didn't think much about it because it was someone's housework or the principle of not taking care of it, and packed up to prepare for the afternoon class.
After class, Deng Liyi walked back anxiously, she didn't expect Berlin to continue to help her pick up Ruiqian, but when she walked to the bottom of the apartment, she couldn't help but feel sour when she saw that one big and one small were having fun, how stupid is this Berlin, she has done it like this, why is she still revolving around herself so much and helping herself so much.
"Mommy~" Rui Qian pulled Berlin and ran towards Dunriyi, although he didn't understand very well, but he could also see that there was a problem between Dunriyi and Berlin, this one is his favorite Mommy, and the other is Sister Lin, who will play with him, although stupid, he likes both of them, he doesn't want them to quarrel.
"Hmm." Dunriyi smiled and touched Ruiqian's head, and looked up at Berlin, and at this moment, Berlin was still smiling at her, but there was more bitterness in that smile, Dunriyi bowed his head slightly and said, "Thank you, in the future"
"Sister Yi, Rui Qian and I are already very good friends, you see that you are so busy, let me help you" I am afraid that Deng Liyi will not let me pick up Rui Qian, so that I will not even have the only chance to meet her in private, she doesn't want it, Xu is really afraid, and there is inevitably a trace of pleading in Berlin's words.
This made Dunriyi, who was hanging her head, very uncomfortable, and finally after half a ring, she looked up and said, "Well, I'll have to continue to trouble you from then on." ”
“yeah!! It's great, Sister Lin, we can play together. When Rui Qian heard this, he immediately pulled Berlin, who was already stunned, very happily and shook it.
"Hehehe, thank you, Sister Yi, thank you." Berlin somehow wanted to cry, and there were indeed tears in her eyes, but she raised her head and suppressed it, she thought that this should be the so-called crying with joy, so does this also mean that she was not killed by Sister Yi, in fact, there is still a chance.
"Lin Lin, in fact, it's me who should say thank you, thank you for your work." Dunriy showed a very sincere smile and said, although she hadn't thought about the problem between herself and Berlin, but for Berlin, for this Berlin that had always been sincere to her, she really didn't want to hurt at all, she was reluctant.
Although Berlin didn't understand what work had come, seeing Dunriy smile so brightly finally showed his first sun-like smile in so many days.
