Chapter 23: Dating
When it was time to get off work, Li Zeyuan sat in the office and was stunned by a small book in front of him. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info This is what he found from the wine cabinet in the apartment, Zhao Xiaoting's essay or notebook. There are many things densely written on it, there are memos, there are also brief comments, indignation or helplessness, as well as the appreciation and analysis of beautiful sentences, and even graffiti, disorganized, few people use a pen to write in this era, and Zhao Xiaoting uses traditional characters, and occasionally there are one or two typos, which shows that this thick little book should have been written after she lived in Hong Kong, and it has been written in just a few months, which shows the delicacy of her heart! I just don't know why it appeared in the wine cabinet, maybe she forgot it there when she took the wine, right?
The big words "no desire is just" on the title page are very eye-catching, as if reminding not to think too much, not to hope for people and things that are unreachable and do not belong to you, so is she unreachable, does not belong or does she not want at all? Li Zeyuan wants to know!
Walking out of the office, my floor was already sparsely populated, and the empty area of more than a thousand feet was a little desolate. For the first time he felt that the silence was terrifying. Because this silence is too easy to let yourself hear your inner voice!
It was already past ten o'clock when Li Zeyuan got home, he thought that Zhao Xiaoting was probably asleep, but he didn't expect her to sit in the living room of their room and watch something seriously, with a red shawl on her body. Hearing the sound of the door opening, Zhao Xiaoting turned her head to look at him, slowly stood up, and said calmly, "Let's talk!" After saying that, he sat back in his place.
Her calm appearance made Li Zeyuan a little confused, so, is something wrong? So Li Zeyuan still sat opposite her according to his words, looking at her. Under the light, Zhao Xiaoting's complexion melted into the light, and she couldn't see clearly.
"I'm sorry!" Zhao Xiaoting apologized as soon as she opened her mouth, and Li Zeyuan looked at her suspiciously!
"Come to think of it, I'm indeed a bit of a white wolf with empty gloves!" Zhao Xiaoting smiled, but it was not so natural, she pulled her hair and mustered up the courage to face Li Zeyuan, some things can be solved one by one for her, but this feeling is not good for him!
"Anyway, we have registered our marriage, and the conditions you gave me are so generous, it doesn't seem too kind for me to keep twisting and pinching! So ......"
"So what? What's going on to make you so perverse? β
"Uh...... That one...... Do you kiss me every night? Zhao Xiaoting's cheeks gradually flushed.
"You've been so awkward these days, just because of this?" Li Zeyuan looked at her in disbelief.
"......" Zhao Xiaoting's turn is puzzled, isn't this serious?
"Maybe I've been abroad for too long, isn't it normal to have a goodnight kiss?"
"Goodnight kiss?" These Zhao Xiaoting really blushed, it seemed that she was thinking wrong, and she was inexplicably awkward, she really felt that she was too ridiculous when she thought about it.
"What do you think it would be? What's going on your head! Li Zeyuan looked at her reaction amusefully, and nodded her little head affectionately.
"I'm sorry! I misunderstood! Zhao Xiaoting lowered her head, her long hair covered her face, and she really spit on herself in her heart!
Li Zeyuan moved over, gently hugged Zhao Xiaoting in his arms, and leaned on each other. It's not so hard to have someone around you who can rest assured after a long night!
"Come to the company at noon, let's have lunch together!" After breakfast, when Zhao Xiaoting sent Li Zeyuan out, he suddenly said this.
Until half past ten in the morning, Zhao Xiaoting was still reading in the study, and the two of them relaxed when they talked about it last night. At eleven o'clock, Zhao Xiaoting walked out of the room wearing a light blue windbreaker, said hello to her sister-in-law, and got in the car and set off.
Zhao Xiaoting stopped at the door of Wanhong Group, this is the headquarters of the Li family real estate company, she has never been here, looking at the dozens of floors of the building, she stood there a little hesitantly, the driver Uncle Wang saw that she was motionless, so he got out of the car and asked if he wanted to go over to say hello to her first and inform the front desk downstairs.
Zhao Xiaoting shook her head, told him to go back first, took a deep breath, and walked towards the building. Today's sun is a little dazzling, and against the background of the light blue windbreaker, Zhao Xiaoting's figure is even more slender. Walking into the front desk, she just stood in front of the front desk lady and didn't speak, the front desk lady saw that it was her, she immediately stood up and respectfully led her to the special elevator, which was the special elevator of Li Zeyuan and Li Zhihe, the head of the Li family. It turned out that Li Zeyuan had instructed the front desk to pay attention to the third young grandmother early in the morning, and once she arrived, she would be sent directly to the special elevator. This really made Zhao Xiaoting unexpected!
Zhao Xiaoting's appearance in the company hall immediately spread in the company, everyone saw her information and appearance on the Internet, originally some female employees were very disdainful of Zhao Xiaoting's background, such a Cinderella is really a little despised, but she walked in the hall, and her dress and aura did not look like she was born in the countryside, but more like an upper-class celebrity, which made people dare not underestimate her.
Zhao Xiaoting took the elevator to the top floor of the fifty-sixth floor, and as soon as the elevator door opened, she saw a man in a straight suit Alex waiting here, she had seen this man a few times, he was Li Zeyuan's most powerful assistant, and he was a man with a strict attitude.
"Third young grandmother, please come here!" Alex bowed slightly politely towards her and led the way in front of Zhao Xiaoting.
"Thank you!" Zhao Xiaoting followed behind him gracefully, it was really empty, and in such a big place, she only saw a female secretary in a white suit.
Alex led Zhao Xiaoting to stand in front of the door of a room, knocked on the door panel gently, and a deep voice came from inside: "Come in!" Alex let Zhao Xiaoting in, but he didn't go in, but gently closed the door, very respectfully.
Li Zeyuan was looking at the documents in front of him, without raising his head, and said directly: "You sit down first, I still have some things to deal with." β
Zhao Xiaoting obediently sat on the sofa on the side, looking around at this large office, the wood material was used a lot, she could barely see that the bookcase and the wide desk like a dining table seemed to be made of rosewood, most of the wood in this room was rosewood, which made this office a little dull. She knew that Li Zhihe was very fond of wood, but she didn't expect Li Zeyuan to accept that his office was like an old man's study, and there was no youthful atmosphere.
She looked at Li Zeyuan again, the man lowered his head and looked at the documents seriously, and behind him was a large floor-to-ceiling window, bright and clean. Through the window behind him, she saw the sky of Hong Kong, blue as the sea, I haven't seen such a cheerful sky color for a long time, the longer I am in the big city, the more I ignore the sky and the starry sky, she actually loves the sun very much, loves the feeling of warmth in the sun, and prefers the taste of the sun, but unfortunately, women are born with the sun as enemies, for the sake of white and beauty, they can only avoid the sun every day, even she has to do so. She squinted at the sky and looked at the sky in a daze.
As soon as Li Zeyuan looked up by chance, he could see Zhao Xiaoting looking behind him with a fascinated look, such an intoxicated demeanor, such a happy and satisfied appearance seemed to be rarely seen from her face, except for the time at her house. couldn't help but put down the documents in his hand, he slowly walked over and stood in front of Zhao Xiaoting to block her gaze.
"Huh? Are you done? Zhao Xiaoting seemed to have just come back to her senses, and looked at his face in front of her in a daze.
"Well, it's been too long, right? Let's go out to eat! Li Zeyuan straightened up and looked at her.
"Oh, good!" Zhao Xiaoting hurriedly stood up and followed him to the door. Li Zeyuan held her hand while opening the door, his hands were very warm, but Zhao Xiaoting's hands were cold, she had such a problem since she was a child, although she was in good health, but in autumn and winter, her hands and feet would be cold, and she couldn't warm up.
When Alex saw the door open, he immediately stood up and walked over, and usually, he followed Li Zeyuan out of the door in order to meet his unexpected needs. But this time, Li Zeyuan shook his hand at him and didn't let him follow.
The two walked hand in hand all the way through the hall, attracting the attention and surprise of the employees who were going out for lunch, so that the appearance of their fiancΓ©e in front of the company's employees did not seem to be the style of their own boss. It's weird!
Zhao Xiaoting was also a little embarrassed by everyone's eyes, but she couldn't say anything, so she could only follow him out seriously. As soon as they went out, the driver drove the car in front of them for less than a second. Li Zeyuan gentlemanly opened the rear door and let Zhao Xiaoting get into the car first.
The car drove steadily, but Zhao Xiaoting found that Li Zeyuan didn't let go of her hand at all, she struggled gently, but Li Zeyuan held it tighter and didn't let go. Zhao Xiaoting was helpless, so she could only let him lead.
The car stopped at a magnificent hotel, and Li Zeyuan took Zhao Xiaoting into an elegant private room, the huge private room was only the two of them, empty, so that she didn't understand why she asked her to come here for dinner.
After ordering, after the waiter went down, Zhao Xiaoting began to sit still. She thought about it for a while and asked, "Is there anything you called me out for today?" β
Li Zeyuan poured a cup of tea, glanced at her, put the cup of tea in front of her, and poured another cup of tea in front of himself: "The tea here is very good, although it is not a famous brand, but the taste is very positive, you can taste it!" β
Zhao Xiaoting glanced at the cup, but turned her eyes away and didn't drink, just looked at him and didn't speak.
"You don't have to be in such a hurry, it seems that we haven't been out to eat together for a long time, but we suddenly remembered." Li Zeyuan took a sip of tea gently, and the mellow taste made him feel refreshed.
Zhao Xiaoting nodded, thinking about the number of dates since they met, thinking about it carefully, it is really a bit little, especially after the engagement ceremony, the two almost did not appear together in the camera lenses of the paparazzi.
"Is there something in the company that we need to show up with?" Zhao Xiaoting is very unromantic, and only thinks about this.
"That's not true, it's just a matter of asking you out for a meal, don't think too much!" Li Zeyuan shook her head, she seemed to treat every date as a theme for the paparazzi to promote the revelations, as if she was not serious and just had a meal together.
At this time, the waiter knocked on the door, and Zhao Xiaoting finally breathed a sigh of relief. The waiters were allowed to come in and put their orders on the table. This meal was silent to each other, and Zhao Xiaoting was in a good mood, so her appetite was also a lot better.
After eating this meal for more than an hour, Zhao Xiaoting looked at her watch, she was almost going back, and Li Zeyuan had to go back to work in the afternoon.
"You don't have to go back in the afternoon, come back to the company with me, Alex will take you to try on the dress later, and there is a drinking party to attend tonight." Li Zeyuan got up and walked in front and said lightly.
"What cocktail party?" Zhao Xiaoting didn't know why, he hadn't told himself that he was going to the drinking party before, and Li Zeyuan's circle was not clear to him, so he suddenly felt a little nervous.
"The full moon banquet of the Yang family's grandson, our two families are world friends, you don't have to be nervous." Li Zeyuan grabbed Zhao Xiaoting's hand again and held it steadily, Zhao Xiaoting did not struggle, and obediently followed him.
"Is it the same Boss Yang who didn't appear at the last engagement ceremony?" Zhao Xiaoting remembered that Boss Yang mentioned by Eric last time was said to be the heir to YM, the largest performing arts company in Hong Kong, but she didn't expect that the place where the two appeared together for the first time was the Yang family, and that kind of scene should be star-studded.
"It's not his family or who! It's all arranged, Brother Yang and sister-in-law really want to meet you. Li Zeyuan smiled, he deliberately chose such a place to officially bring Zhao Xiaoting to appear, in the past, even if she followed her sister-in-law out to meet those wealthy ladies, it was still different from the meaning of taking her out. The Yang family's world friends will also take care of Zhao Xiaoting, and the eldest daughter-in-law of the Yang family is also his friend, and she has a very good impression of Zhao Xiaoting.
"Oh......" Zhao Xiaoting replied and stopped talking, anyway, with Li Zeyuan here, she just needs to do a good job in the role of a vase, anyway, it is not the first time to take on such a role, the so-called mastery
