Chapter 224: The Masked Man
Tian Jiyao was startled, listened to the approaching footsteps, and quickly found a place to hide. Just looking left and right, only a nearby bookshelf was tall, and there was still some space from the wall behind, so I hurriedly got in.
She nestled in the dark corner behind the bookshelf, curled up, and even breathed lightly.
It's just that the dust is blowing in the sky, and she wants to suffocate.
Tian Jiyao looked through the gap between the books, and saw that the owner of the footsteps was a man dressed in short brown, masked, walking this way.
The masked man was angry, and he could see that he was not a character to be messed with. Covered again, Tian Jiyao guessed that he didn't come in through the gate either.
Are you here to catch yourself?
Thinking of the words on Shen Yun's manuscript, I was a little worried.
Since the light in the warehouse was not very good, she couldn't see where his eyes were looking, only to see the masked man approaching her.
Tian Jiyao's heart was about to jump out, making a loud noise, beating violently in her body. She didn't dare to act rashly, so she could only maintain a posture of shrinking up and breathing lightly. A thin layer of sweat oozed from his forehead.
Seeing that the masked man was about to find her, her throat was tight, and she was very uncomfortable, and swallowed hard.
The masked man suddenly stopped, and that position was very close to Tian Jiyao, almost separated by a bookshelf.
She couldn't see the masked man's face clearly, and she always felt that he looked this way again.
Forget it, now that you've been discovered, take the initiative to stand up!
But just when Tian Jiyao was about to take the initiative to speak, I saw the man bend down and pick up a piece of paper and look at it carefully.
Tian Jiyao's hairs stood up, that was ......
Shen Yun's manuscript!
She couldn't see the masked man's expression clearly, only that her heart didn't seem to be beating. If she hadn't read the contents of Shen Yun's manuscript before, she might not have been so nervous, but now it was obvious that her whole heart was throbbing wildly, making her dizzy.
The masked man looked at it for a moment, then took some more manuscripts and put them in his arms, and then turned to leave.
The sense of oppression disappeared in an instant, but Tian Jiyao couldn't feel at ease. Shen Yun's manuscript was taken away...... Or someone from an unknown source......
She was afraid that something would happen to Shen Yun, so she was so scared that she could only hurry out of the warehouse.
"Huh? Shen Niangzi, why are you here? The little guy greeted him, "The master has already returned home, call you over!" ”
The old man naturally said that it was Zhang Qi, but he didn't expect Zhang Qi to come back so soon!
Tian Jiyao was shocked, seeing that the little guy didn't care why he came out of the warehouse, he didn't say anything, nodded, and followed the little guy.
"I heard from the insider, you sent some things?"
Zhang Qi was not angry and arrogant, but he startled Tian Jiyao, Tian Jiyao hurriedly explained: "It's just some things that help each other, nothing rare, and I hope Zhang Xuezheng won't think about it." ”
Zhang Qi suddenly smiled heartily, stroked his beard and said: "It's okay, it's okay, look at these things are good, I guess I can eat a good dish tonight." After speaking, he looked at Tian Jiyao again, and nodded with satisfaction, "You have a heart!" It's not like Shen Yun's child, who has a somewhat straight temperament. ”
Straight temperament?
Listening to Zhang Xuezheng's words, Tian Jiyao grinned, but her face was stiff, and she was a little dazed when she laughed.
It's because she's really worried in her heart, but she doesn't dare to show it. If Zhang Xuezheng asked, it would be difficult to explain.
Thinking that the masked man had taken away those manuscripts, he didn't know whether to tell Zhang Qi whether he should change them. It stands to reason that Zhang Qi has no reason to treat Shen Yun badly, but now it seems that he doesn't know what's going on.
After a while, he hesitated, but he swallowed the words to his mouth.
"Why don't you play a game of chess with me!" Zhang Qi invited when he had nothing to do, saying that he would sit down in front of the chessboard.
Tian Jiyao didn't shirk either, he still knew some Go, and sat down generously, "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate!" ”
But Tian Jiyao was restless, always thinking about Shen Yun in her heart, thinking about the feeling, and always playing chess and slow.
Zhang Qi saw that Tian Jiyao was not normal, and twisted his eyebrows.
"But too nervous? Why are you always distracted? ”
In his opinion, he is also an old gentleman who is not easy to get along, although this Shen Niangzi is a businessman and has seen everyone, but it is inevitable to be restrained when playing chess with him, so he naturally thinks that Tian Jiyao is nervous.
Tian Jiyao followed his words, "Well, I'm a little nervous, I'm always afraid of upsetting Zhang Xuezheng's interest." ”
"The important thing in playing chess is this spirit, why are you worried about this before you have played a few pieces?" Zhang Xuezheng knocked and said, seeing that Tian Jiyao was a little embarrassed, he didn't say more, and said comfortingly, "Don't be nervous, I'm not a cannibal, I only eat children." ”
Listening to Zhang Xuezheng talking funny things at a glance, Tian Jiyao actually wanted to laugh.
"Thank you Zhang Xuezheng, I'm already much better, why don't I accompany you in the next game?" As he spoke, he was about to clean up the chess game, but Zhang Qi waved his hand and said, "Hey, it's not early, Shen Yun is probably still waiting for you at home, you should go back first." ”
At the end, he explained: "I won't leave you alone to eat, and the next time I come to eat with Shen Yun, it can be regarded as my return gift to you for these things." ”
In this way, the neighborhood relationship between you and me is something that people like Zhang Qi are not disgusted with.
Tian Jiyao knew in her heart, and nodded obediently, "Okay, then let's eat together next time, and also taste the craftsmanship of my master!" I heard Shen Yun say that the last time I ate the food cooked by my wife, the taste was excellent, he liked it very much, and I also wanted to learn from my wife. ”
"It's good if you don't dislike it." Zhang Qi was naturally happy when he heard someone praising his daughter-in-law, but suddenly remembered something and stared at Tian Jiyao for a long time.
Tian Jiyao blinked, "Zhang Xuezheng has anything else to instruct?" ”
"You and Shen Yun are not small anymore," Zhang Qi stroked his beard, Tian Jiyao had a bad premonition in his heart, and sure enough, the next game was, "When will you give birth to a doll for my next batch of schoolchildren?" ”
Tian Jiyao's face was on fire directly, and under Zhang Qi's serious gaze, he just wanted to find a crack to get into.
"You should accompany Shen Yun more, if you can leave the shop to others, leave it to others, don't do everything yourself. The main thing is to make time for business! Zhang Qi's words were serious, but Tian Jiyao's head lowered deeper.
"Okay." Her voice was small and a little squirming, but she still hurried down, and left as if she had to say goodbye.
Tian Jiyao returned home, her face was still red, and she didn't seem to be able to dissipate it.
As soon as he saw Shen Yun, he thought that Zhang Qi was "doing the right thing", and his face turned a little red.
"Yaoyao? What's wrong with you......" Before Shen Yun finished speaking, he saw Tian Jiyao running away, leaving only one sentence, "I'm going to make dinner", which made Shen Yun a little confused.
