Chapter 103: [6000 Words]
That night, Ji Xinyao's fever subsided, and her condition improved, because the next day was Sunday, and she was supervised by Gu Nancy to rest at home honestly.
On this day, she either slept or occasionally went to the balcony to bask in the sun, and finally this serious illness was much better.
Wake up on Monday.
After a week, when I returned to work, I found that the people in the office had changed greatly, except for Su Xiaonuan, who she had been ordered to be promoted to her assistant, many people had been transferred.
"Editor-in-Chief Ji. 弼"
When Ji Xinyao walked into the office, several newcomers in the office greeted her warmly, after all, she was the editor-in-chief of the government affairs reporting department, and she should be the object of their flattery, plus her identity has long been an open secret in the company, Ji Xinyao has long been used to these smiling faces, and politely responded, and walked to her desk.
"Sister Ji~" Here Su Xiaonuan suddenly slipped to her side, leaned over and whispered in her ear: "I heard that the woman with straight black hair sitting in the innermost part is the girlfriend of our editor-in-chief Zhang's new department, let's talk and do things more leisurely in the future!" ”
Ji Xinyao listened, glanced back at the person Su Xiaonuan said, and saw that it was a young girl who looked ordinary but had a good figure that was not like words, so she responded lightly to Su Xiaonuan: "I know, go back and do your business, I haven't been here for a week, send me a few highlights of last week, and make a list for me if there is any news that has not been finished, and I will assign work." ”
"Oh, good." Su Xiaonuan hurriedly turned around and retreated.
Ji Xinyao flipped through the backlog of several press releases on the table, but suddenly thought of something in her heart, and quietly glanced back at the girl who was sitting there, although she worked hard, but she always seemed to be watched by others and was a little uncomfortable.
Even if she is an honest and honest girlfriend, even if she has the ability to work, she will suddenly be placed in the company, and she will face gossip, which will not only not help her work, but may even have the opposite effect.
If she goes to work in the government, I'm afraid it won't be much better, sometimes people are like this, they don't look at your work ability, they will only remember the back door you walked, and they will only see who you have a relationship with, everyone has this gossip mentality, and then it's not just gossip.
And the reason why Gu Nancy has never mentioned it to her is that he is also thinking about this?
He heard Qin Muyan's phone call yesterday, so he didn't plan to let her continue to work in this media company under Qin's? Mention letting her go to work in the government?
Is this counted, that Mayor Gu is eating flying vinegar in disguise?
She chuckled and thought about it, it seems that it is better for her not to work in the government for the time being, for a person of Gu Nancy's status, if someone deliberately grasps such a too ordinary thing as seeking personal gain on him, it is not a trivial matter, she better not cause trouble to him. Even if he is not afraid of trouble, she can't know that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer tiger mountains.
In the afternoon, I grabbed Su Xiaonuan and went out to run a few more rushed news, and at about 3 o'clock, the two took pictures of the flower bed under the flagpole of a square in the east of the city.
Su Xiaonuan works very hard and is very self-motivated, she wants to learn everything by herself, Ji Xinyao handed over the filming work to her, and she went to the neighborhood to sell two bottles of water and came back, and was about to walk over to take the mineral water to Xiao Nuan, when suddenly, a small figure appeared in her sight.
I saw a white and pure little girl who looked like she was five years old with two braids, running around by the smiling flower bed, as if she was playing hide and seek with someone, Ji Xinyao didn't particularly like children, if she said she liked it, she liked the kind of cute and obedient child who didn't cry or make trouble, and she usually deliberately stayed away from the child who often cried and cried, seeing that the little girl kept giggling, as if she was having a good time, she stopped and looked over there with a smile.
"Haha~ Mommy, where have you been...... Mommy ......" The little girl ran around the flower bed, but she couldn't find where her mommy was hiding: "Mommy, are you coming out...... Hey...... Mommy come out soon......"
"Hahaha...... Mommy...... Mommy...... Come out ......"
Ji Xinyao looked back, and saw a figure behind the bus stop not far away, who seemed to be deliberately bending down and hiding there, and couldn't help but smile again, and then glanced at the little girl again, and suddenly her expression was slightly stagnant.
I only saw the side face of the little girl just now, but now I saw it, and I found that the little girl's face seemed to be seen somewhere, and it was a little familiar, but she couldn't find it in her impression for a while, and she was about to walk over, but she was suddenly patted on the shoulder.
Su Xiaonuan handed her the camera in her hand with a proud face: "Sister Ji, how did you see what I was shooting?" You should be able to pay the errand directly when you go back, right? ”
Ji Xinyao lowered her head, took the camera, and looked at it one by one: "Yes, yes, more and more professional, if you can write a press release, let me give you a pass at one time, you will go directly to the teacher, and you will learn something during the internship period~"
"That's it!" Su Xiaonuan smiled, saw the mineral water in her hand, directly took a bottle of Gollum and drank two sips, Ji Xinyao took advantage of the time to look back at the flower bed again, but she couldn't see the trace of the little girl, looking back at the two figures that couldn't be seen clearly behind the bus stop sign, she couldn't see their appearance clearly, so she didn't take the little girl's face seriously just now, anyway, she often felt like she had seen a stranger somewhere, in fact, it was a common natural reflection of many people, so she didn't take it to heart, and went back to the company directly with Su Xiaonuan in a car.
***************************************************************************************
It wasn't until she got off work that Ji Xinyao just walked out of the company when she saw the red Ferrari parked outside the door, and couldn't help but roll her eyes towards the sky.
Damn Qin Muyan, it's really ghostly!
The car was parked right where she had to pass, otherwise there was no way to cross the street to take the car, and it was impossible to go around if she wanted to pretend not to see it, so she had to walk over and knock on the window, but the window did not fall, but the door was opened directly from the inside out.
"Get in the car~" Qin Muyan glanced at her, and put one hand on the steering wheel, looking in a good mood.
Ji Xinyao saw that he stopped here, and other colleagues were not easy to pass, obviously deliberately not giving her a chance to run, so she had to sit in the car.
As soon as the doors were closed, the red Ferrari swooped off in front of the company, heading out onto the wide road and speeding through the traffic.
Before the two could speak, he answered the phone, and said into the phone without any expression: "Don't thank me, if it weren't for the sake of the child, I wouldn't help you this time, you can do it yourself, I don't want to ask too much about your affairs, whether it is a blessing or a curse is also caused by yourself, there is never a regret medicine to take in this world." If you want to see him, you can figure it out yourself, I don't want to mess with myself. ”
After that, he hung up the phone, and it was obvious that he was very perfunctory to the person on the other side of the phone, and ...... I don't like it very much.
It is rare to see Qin Muyan so indifferent and impatient with someone.
"Why did you come back to the U.S. for a week?" Knowing that if he didn't eat this meal with him tonight, this kid wouldn't stop, she asked lightly.
But she really doesn't want to affect the brotherly relationship between Qin Muyan and Gu Nancy because of herself, although she doesn't take herself too seriously, but she also adheres to the idea that more is better than less, and wants to calm things as much as possible, Qin Muyan's home stadium is Boston, USA after all, and it is only temporary in G City, she wants to hide it if she can.
"My wife hasn't soaked her hands yet, how can she not come back?" Qin Muyan didn't look at her, just looked at the traffic in front of her, and flicked her fingers on the steering wheel at random.
"Is there anything important on the American side?" She digressed from the subject.
"It's nothing, a big customer with a bad temper, no one can handle him except me, and this time I went back, but I got a contract worth a billion dollars."
"Billion? Dollar? Seeing what you said so easily, this is just a drop in the bucket for your Qin clan's liquidity, right? Tsk, it's really unbearable for small citizens like us who work hard every month to earn thousands of yuan! ”
"As you said, working capital~" He raised his eyebrows slightly: "In fact, the actual net worth of the master is not much, and the working capital is never a fixed asset, if you don't dislike it, just marry it, let alone a few thousand a month, even if you spend thousands of yuan every day, the master can still afford you!" ”
As he spoke, he suddenly took advantage of the traffic light in front of him to stop the car, turned his head and looked at her with a smile, a pair of peach blossom eyes at the tail of his eyes, leaned over and put his arm on her shoulder: "How is it?" Do you want to think about it? Marry to be Mrs. Qin? ”
Ji Xinyao was embarrassed, raised his hand and pushed his head away, he didn't take it seriously, and continued to drive at the green light with a smile.
"I really don't understand, why do you seem to be so affectionate to me inexplicably, why haven't you seen where you liked me before? Are you tired of those blonde and blue-eyed beauties abroad all these years? As soon as I returned to China, I caught such a clear soup noodles and didn't let go! It's really out of the ordinary! ”
"When did I play my cards according to common sense?" Qin Muyan smiled, took a cigarette in his hand, held it in his mouth, held the steering wheel in one hand, held the cigarette in the other, looked ahead, and said: "You were a stupid girl at that time, did I like you, you never paid attention to it, you always ran away when you saw me, what can I do if I like you anymore?" ”
Ji Xinyao thought about how when she was in the Ji family, Qin Muyan did always pester her, but she basically avoided him, and she really didn't notice any changes in his attitude towards her.
Except for ......
That time, Xiu Li said that at that time, Qin Muyan was looking for her like crazy, and when she rescued her from those people, she kept holding her, not letting anyone touch her, and kept calling her name, but she was not conscious at the time, and she didn't know how Qin Muyan and Xiuli rescued her at that time.
"In the past two years, I have some feelings, too many people don't know how to cherish the qiē in front of them, and in the end they miss it and want to turn back, maybe it's too late." Saying that, Qin Muyan turned his eyes to look at her, this was the first time Ji Xinyao saw such concentration in his eyes: "At least, I don't want to miss it." ”
Hearing what he said, Ji Xinyao felt like he had something on his mind for no reason, and subconsciously stared at him, but Qin Muyan just smiled, retracted his gaze, continued to drive, and said lightly: "Nancy should have a dinner at the Emperor's Garden Hotel now, why don't we go there to eat something, I can't just see you, but forget about my good brother, if Nancy knows about this, she will definitely scold me for being of the opposite sex and inhuman." Well, let's go to the Emperor's Garden and find him for a treat! ”
He made up his mind and went all the way straight, but Ji Xinyao's heart chuckled, and he hurriedly said: "The things in that hotel are not delicious, let's change one~"
Qin Muyan glanced at her: "Haven't you always been very picky?" What's wrong? Did Nancy offend you? If you have a grievance, you can say, there is a master, even if he Gu Nancy is the mayor of G City, he has to let me score three points, and I will help you seek justice! ”
Seeing that he could think of Gu Nancy at once, Ji Xinyao knew that Qin Muyan was very shrewd, he just didn't notice the previous news now, and no one around him might have mentioned it to him, but if she blindly deliberately concealed and avoided it, it would arouse his suspicions.
She paused for a moment and smiled: "No, no matter how good Mayor Gu is with you, how can I, a small citizen, have anything to do with him, let alone that he offended me, even if I want to offend him, I can't find a way." ”
Qin Muyan turned his head to look at her again, and saw that her expression seemed to be really like that, so he didn't ask anything more.
When she arrived at the Emperor's Garden Hotel, Ji Xinyao was a little uneasy in her heart, she was really afraid that if she really bumped into Gu Nancy, what if something happened?
Although Gu Nancy respected her ideas and did not mention her relationship with him to Qin Muyan, she never seemed to agree with her concealment......
Just thinking about it, Qin Muyan had already gotten out of the car, so she had to follow and get out of the car.
"Why is your face so bad?" Entering the hotel lobby, with the help of this bright light, Qin Muyan finally saw a little haggard on Ji Xinyao's face.
"I had a fever a few days ago, but I just got better yesterday, and my face may not have improved." She smiled.
When Qin Muyan heard this, he directly raised his hand and put it on her forehead, and his eyebrows frowned slightly: "Is it still burning?" ”
"It's not burning." She carefully dodged his hand.
He nodded and walked directly to the elevator, Ji Xinyao followed him over, his heart was uneasy, suddenly, Qin Muyan directly stretched out his hand to hold her hand, she stiffened, the whole person was pulled by him, leaned against him, and was busy waving away, but he lowered his head with a suspicious face, looked at her, directly raised her hand, unfolded her palm, and looked at the platinum ring on her right ring finger.
"Where's the ring?" Seeing that her ring was actually on the ring finger of her right hand, which was the position of women with wedding rings, his boss wrinkled his eyebrows unhappily, looked at the ring, and felt extremely dazzling.
If he hadn't suddenly touched the ring on her hand, he really hadn't paid attention to it just now.
Ji Xinyao's face froze, and he was busy withdrawing his hand, but he firmly grabbed her hand and didn't let her hide, standing at the elevator door, looking at her with a slightly cold look: "Ji Xinyao? Why do I think you're weird? Is there something you're hiding from me? Do you have a boyfriend? Or are you married? ”
Suddenly, the elevator door in front of the two of them slowly opened, Gu Nancy's sparse and handsome face appeared in front of the two of them, Ji Xinyao looked at Gu Nancy standing in the elevator in surprise, the latter was quietly looking at Qin Muyan and her handshake, and walked out slowly.
Qin Muyan saw Gu Nancy, and didn't have time to greet him, but just blindly tugged Ji Xinyao's hand, and asked with a vinegary face, "Where did this ring come from?" Who put it on for you? Do you know what the ring with the ring finger of the right hand means? ”
Ji Xinyao took a deep breath, noticed Gu Nancy's faint gaze over there, and saw that there was a faint light in his eyes, as if he was waiting for her answer, and his faint thin lips were slightly hooked.
She was helpless, she really wished that she could suddenly faint like those heroines and supporting actresses in the TV series, but she didn't seem to faint at all, so she had to withdraw her hand, raised her hand to cover the platinum wedding ring on her ring finger, and said, "Yes...... Thuli gave me a birthday present, Thuli bought me ......"
For a moment, Qin Muyan frowned, Ji Xinyao didn't dare to look at Nancy's eyes, deliberately avoiding his gaze, only to feel that the air around him had frozen three feet in an instant.
"Ji Xiuli?" Boss Qin Muyan glanced at her unhappily and covered the ring as if she were a baby: "Why did he give you the ring?" ”
"I've never bought any jewelry, but once I saw it in a jewelry store and I liked it very much, so Xiuli ...... it."
Before she finished speaking, Secretary Gao, who came out with Gu Nancy, suddenly whispered: "Mayor, Sun Ju's car is still outside, didn't you say that you were going to see him off?" ”
Qin Muyan turned around and smiled at Gu Nancy at this time: "Your dinner is not over yet?" I'll take Xin Yao to the private room and wait for you first. ”
As he spoke, he directly grabbed Ji Xinyao's hand and wanted to take her into the elevator.
Gu Nancy didn't have any expression, her eyes were lukewarm and lukewarm, and she didn't turn around and leave with her head down beside him, until the two of them walked into the elevator.
As soon as the elevator door closed, Ji Xinyao's hanging heart did not drop but brought it up again, always feeling that if this situation was not alleviated, I am afraid that sooner or later she would have a myocardial infarction.
"Ji Xiuli, this kid is also your younger brother, otherwise you have to let this dead boy know that it's okay to give gifts indiscriminately, can you give rings indiscriminately?" Qin Muyan hadn't forgotten about her ring, and reached out to take her hand to take off the ring.
"What are you doing!" She struggled to pull her hand back.
Seeing that she was so anxious about this action, Qin Muyan frowned, didn't force her, didn't take it off hard, and watched her withdraw her hand to the ring as if she was a baby, and her face suddenly stinked: "If you like it, just change your finger to wear it, I see that you are uncomfortable on the ring finger of your right hand." ”
"What's so uncomfortable!" She muttered to herself, hiding her hand behind her back, lest he be excited to pick it up again: "Each finger of each person is not exactly the same thickness, I just take this ring on this finger, and I am uncomfortable with other fingers." ”
Qin Muyan didn't argue with her anymore, after all, Ji Xiuli grew up with him, and he wouldn't be jealous enough to eat her brother, so he didn't say anything, after the elevator door opened, he walked out directly, this time he didn't drag her, obviously even if he didn't mind anymore, he was still a little unhappy.
"It's hard to serve!" Ji Xinyao pursed her lips and followed him out helplessly.
