Chapter 21: Pretty

Mr. Ji's personal routine is very regular, he will be at home during the day, read the newspaper and news at about 7 o'clock in the morning, eat breakfast at 8 o'clock in the morning, shut up in the study in the morning, rest for an hour after lunch, tease the birds and feed the fish in the garden and terrace in the afternoon, do not eat at home in the evening, and do not return all night after leaving, and when I get up and go downstairs the next day, he must be sitting on the sofa again.

He is a man who rarely speaks extraordinarily quiet and introverted, to what extent, he never takes the initiative to talk to me, the nanny asks him what he eats, he must take the initiative to report the menu, he only answers yes or no, even I don't quite understand how it is good, the nanny immediately understands what he means, I think the people around him are very peculiar, although he is silent, but every word he says is meaningful, he is always expressionless, and he is handsome when he smiles and never forgets.

When I lived in the manor until the third day, I got up in the morning and looked at the unfamiliar environment, and the awkwardness in my heart gushed out like a volcanic eruption, and I practiced in the mirror in the room for a long time, from my expression to my eyes to how big my teeth were open, and how long my lips were grinning, I made precise measurements and controls, and I was sure that nothing unexpected would happen to me, so I went downstairs to find Mr. Ji.

Sure enough, he sat on the sofa and read a newly printed newspaper, the nanny put breakfast on the dining table, wiped the water droplets on her hands with her apron, and turned into the kitchen, the sun was very good, covering the originally empty living room very full and warm, Mr. Ji looked at the news in the newspaper, he said to me without a trace, "Sit." ”

I pinched my palms hard with my fingertips, "Mr. Ji, I've been bothering you for three days. I want to find a house to move out in the next two days, find a way out for myself, and pay off the money I owe you as soon as possible. ”

His eyes were fixed on the words in the newspaper, and he was so engrossed that he didn't seem to hear what I was saying, and I let out a sigh and continued, "If you don't trust my integrity, I can make an IOU for you." ”

He still didn't respond, I slapped myself lightly on the face, what is going on, did I lose my voice?

I didn't know what to do, Mr. Ji finally put down the newspaper, he got up from the sofa with a slight stretch, ignored me and walked to the dining table, I quickly followed the example of Master He to pull out the chair for him, and wiped it with a square handkerchief, he was obviously stunned, but then he was very satisfied with my performance, he sat down with a smile, "Did you learn from Yichi." ”

The name of Yichi and He Tang Master, I nodded and said yes, he picked up the knife and fork to eat the vegetable platter in front of him, Mr. Ji is very particular about food and health, he will not eat food that is too oily and salty, more vegetables and less meat, the three meals are regular and the score is not bad, the nanny is counting the time to prepare breakfast and lunch, he eats very elegantly, often after a meal, there is no trace of oil stains on the corners of his lips.

I shouted at him, wanting to repeat the old story, but he suddenly stretched out his hand to interrupt me, "Don't talk when you eat." ”

I had to swallow it back, sitting opposite him absentmindedly stuffed it into his mouth, this breakfast was eaten longer than usual, Mr. Ji seemed to be deliberate, he was not in a hurry, eating a piece of cabbage had to be chewed slowly and methodically for a long time, I was able to endure the anxiety at first to accompany him to eat a few bites, and then I was too lazy to take the tableware. After a long time, he finally put down his knife and fork, and he raised his eyes and glanced at me, "You can go and see the woman you rescued." ”

I didn't react at the time, but when I remembered that it was Xi Qing, I couldn't hold back my excitement, and even my voice trembled, "Can I go?" ”

He asked rhetorically, "Why not." ”

I'm so happy that I don't know what to say, I'm always scared to live here, I don't dare to speak loudly, this atmosphere is too terrifying, I myself have a feeling of being imprisoned by the guards, these days in addition to how to make money in the future has been making me anxious, the safety of the seat is also the top priority, I thanked Mr. Ji, he threw the square handkerchief to the corner of the table, "remember to come back before I left." ”

As long as I am allowed to see Xi Qing, I can agree to any conditions.

I took out my leather bag from the drawer above the shoe cabinet, Mr. Ji stopped me behind my back, he looked at the crumpled dress on my body, he pointed to a gift bag in the corner of the sofa, and motioned for me to take a look.

I walked over suspiciously, opened the mouth of the bag and looked inside, it was a mass of clothing, the top inlaid pearl stone was smooth and jade, although I don't like famous brands, but I knew at a glance that this pearl was genuine. I looked back at Mr. Ji, he was pouring tea into the cup to me, I put down my handbag and took out the contents of it, it was a royal blue cheongsam, short, with a relatively low slit, about the base of the thigh, covered with a layer of black veil, wrapping the looming legs, I asked Mr. Ji, "What do you want me to see." ”

He sniffed the tea, "Look at the cheongsam." ”

I said, "It's beautiful, it's exquisite." ”

He mumbled, "Show me instead." ”

I just understood what he meant, I pulled the corners of the skirt on my body, I loved this dress very much, I wore it for almost three summers, at that time I just met Jiang Huan, not long after they came together, he was relatively silent in private, he didn't like to show his head very much, the only time I couldn't stand my soft grinding and hard bubbles, reluctantly accompanied me on the street, when I bought a bunch of clothes, I asked him which one was good-looking, he just said that it was good-looking, I bought it, in fact, there are many in it that I don't like, only this one, I think it suits me very well, It has been rumored that I am reluctant to throw it away, this is also the most worn of all my clothes, I want to explain, it's not that I can't afford it, but Mr. Ji directly closed his eyes and leaned on the sofa, and he didn't intend to talk to me.

I had to take the cheongsam to a spare room opposite the living room to change on, I changed and put my hair behind one ear, there was no mirror in the room, I could only look at the window glass to see the general outline, this cheongsam I looked at more and more familiar, but I just can't remember where I saw it, I tidied up the slit and walked out of the room, Mr. Ji heard my footsteps before slowly opening his eyes, his eyes were fixed on me, from the collarbone to the edge of the legs, he looked very carefully, his eyes were calm like a lake, "It's really beautiful." ”

I say thank you.

He raised his eyebrows and smiled uninhibitedly, "I only evaluate cheongsam." ”

He sat up, his elbows to his knees, and rested on his chin, "I saw this cheongsam from the window, and I thought it was very suitable, but I didn't expect it to be so suitable." ”

His words reminded me, I suddenly realized, isn't it, I saw it in the cheongsam store that day, the store hung the banner of a boutique, the things in it are generally expensive, what women wear beautifully, or have more vision for men with taste, this cannot be denied, their aesthetics are what women want to control the most, Mr. Ji asked me if I needed a car to deliver, I said no trouble.

I walked to the door with my leather bag, and suddenly remembered something, I stared at Mr. Ji's white leather shoes on the shoe rack in the entrance, "Why are you so good to me." ”

Mr. Ji said lightly, "I don't think it's very good. ”

I turned to look at him, he started drinking tea again, he was bound to drink a pot of strong tea after breakfast, I remembered what I heard at the elevator door that day, I hesitated and asked him, "Will Mr. Ji use me in the future." ”

His hand holding the teapot froze slightly, "Why do you ask that?" ”

I said, "It's just curiosity, women are sensitive and suspicious by nature." ”

He listened to my explanation, and his hand moved again, filling the ceramic cup, "Could there be any explanation?" ”

I smiled, "Yes, that proves that I am worthy, a worthy woman, don't worry about not paying off my debts." No, that proves that Mr. Ji is a great and good person, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a philanthropist, I am lucky to have met you. So whether it will be or not, it will be good for me. ”

Mr. Ji smiled and nodded, "Good answer, these words are as beautiful as the cheongsam you are wearing." ”

My fingers caressed the lace and pearls of the cheongsam, which was silky and soft, handmade from the finest silk brocade, and the legs were hidden so that they could not be seen at all. The best one worn by the seat in the casino as a pillar is not as fine as this.

Rich women love jewelry, sexy women love red wine, elegant women love cheongsam, and it was only after I entered the casino to work that I realized that there is such a beautiful and seductive decoration as cheongsam in this world.

I pressed the button around my neck with my hand, "I owe Mr. Ji a great kindness, there is nothing I can't do." ”
