Chapter 16: Fleeing in a panic
"Wow, Mr. Cheng, you can also cook." Ji Hannuo looked at the brightly colored eggs on the plate and couldn't help but be very curious. When looking at this breakfast, she was very appetizing. Unexpectedly, Mr. Cheng's popularity in the business world made people ignore other aspects of him, and it turned out that he still had such a ability.
"It's not very powerful, but it can do something as simple as boiling noodles and fried eggs." Cheng Yichu also told the truth, "Hurry up and eat, it will be cold later." Then he poured the milk into the cup next to Ji Hannuo.
"Thank you, Mr. Cheng," Ji Hannuo had breakfast quietly with him. Although he didn't speak, she didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
In her imagination, the house in front of her is still a little different from Mr. Cheng's house. originally thought that such a big man as Mr. Cheng must have a very serious atmosphere at home. I just didn't expect it to be so approachable. It's a far cry from the way he works a daily basis.
After breakfast, Cheng Yichu asked her, "Do you want me to show you around my home?" ”
"No, I don't." Ji Hannuo quickly refused. After all, he and he didn't say that they had reached that point where they were particularly good. She's just a subordinate, and it's always rude to take the liberty of visiting someone's home like this.
"Hey, I'm about to delay today's business by chatting with you, but I'm here to help you clean your room."
"Okay, yes, follow me." Cheng Yichu took her into his room.
However, in the next second, Ji Hannuo was stunned. The main color of the room is gray and it looks spotless. Only the books on the shelves were messy, the clothes hung well, and even the quilts were neatly folded.
In this state, even she, a girl, feels inferior, "Mr. Cheng, your house is so clean, do you still need someone to clean it?" You didn't mean to find a part-time job for me, did you? “
"Nope." Cheng Yichu hurriedly denied it. In fact, that's what he thought in his heart, even the pile of books he deliberately messed up, for fear that Han Nuo would have psychological pressure after reading it.
"So, did you pay me so I could clean up this pile of books for you?" Ji Hannuo can't help but think that the editor-in-chief is the editor-in-chief, which is too capricious, isn't it?
Cheng Yichu nodded slightly, "Yes, don't underestimate this job." My books have business, literature, philosophy, and all kinds of material in them, and because there are so many books, every time I want to find one, I have to go through it for a long time. Therefore, you should classify them according to their type. ”
"It doesn't sound difficult, leave it to me." Ji Hannuo agreed very happily, so he went in directly and started cleaning.
Cheng Yichu smiled lightly at her, "Then you get busy first, and I'll do my own thing." Tell me when you're done. ”
"Okay, let's go."
So, Cheng Yichu glanced at her, then put the notebook on the sofa in the bedroom and began to process the documents. He and she can still look at Hannuo from time to time, and this feeling is really good. They don't speak, they just do their own things tacitly.
About three hours later, Cheng Yichu closed the notebook, rubbed his somewhat dry eyes, and looked up at the direction of the bedroom: "Why hasn't it been sorted out for so long?" He asked in his own words.
It shouldn't be! It's just some books. Two or three hundred books is not too much, and it can be completed in an hour at most.
Out of curiosity, he moved gently and walked in slowly. He saw that all the books on the shelves were neatly arranged, and Ji Hannuo lowered his head and wrote something on the book, so he asked, "Hannuo, what are you writing?" ”
Ji Hannuo was interrupted by his questioning, raised his head and replied: "I'll write you a rough table of contents, so that next time you look for a book, you can take a look at the table of contents first, it won't be very troublesome." ”
"You're smart." Cheng Yichu smiled. I didn't expect this girl to have a lot of tricks. I wanted to give her an easy job, but I didn't expect her to be so busy.
Ji Hannuo glanced at the time on his watch. It's almost twelve o'clock, and before you know it, time flies.
"Oh, I forgot to look at the time, Mr. Cheng, you must be hungry, let me make you something to eat." Ji Hannuo stood up, but his feet staggered, and his body suddenly lost its center of gravity.
Cheng Yichu stepped forward and wanted to hug her, but it was a little late. The two fell directly on the side of the bed, Cheng Yichu pressed on her body, the two eyes were facing each other, and the body was very close, even the other party's heartbeat and breathing could be heard clearly.
An inexplicable throbbing welled up in my heart. At this time, Cheng Yichu actually responded. Looking at Ji Hannuo's enlarged face in front of him, his first impulse was to kiss her red lips.
Ji Hannuo lowered his head, probably frightened by his behavior. So he quickly separated his hands and shouted, "Mr. Cheng, you have suppressed me." I'm about to lose my breath, can you get up? ”
A sentence skillfully solved the embarrassment, Cheng Yichu quickly got out of bed, "I'm sorry, I see you almost fell just now?" ”
"Nothing, thank you for holding me." Ji Hannuo lowered her head, and when she spoke, her little face turned red. didn't dare to look at Cheng Yichu's eyes at all, and hurriedly dropped a sentence: "Well, I'm going to cook." ”
As he spoke, he hurriedly ran to the kitchen to hide his embarrassment, as if he didn't know how to face him.
But Cheng Yichu was fascinated by her, and quietly followed her, standing at the kitchen door, watching her panic and stop talking.
Ji Hannuo was absent-minded when cooking. When the gas was turned on, she looked up and saw that Cheng Yichu was nearby. A gentle smile took over his entire gaze.
"Mr. Cheng." Ji Hannuo reflexively took two steps back, "Go outside and wait." When the meal is ready, I'll call you. ”
However, Cheng Yichu had no intention of leaving, but got closer: "Hannuo, I have something to tell you." ”
"If you have something, we'll talk about it later. Now I'm busy and don't have time to talk. I don't know why, Ji Hannuo felt that his heart was beating faster, and it seemed that something bad was about to happen.
"It won't take you too long." Cheng Yichu held Ji Hannuo's shoulders with both hands, his eyes were full of sincerity: "Actually, you already understand my feelings for you, and you know it in your heart, but why do you never respond to me?" ”
Well? When he says this, is it tantamount to a confession? Ji Hannuo only felt that his head was buzzing, and people were very confused.
"Mr. Cheng, what are you talking about?" She still pretended to be calm on the surface, "In my heart, I have always regarded you as my boss." You are my favorite and most respected editor-in-chief. ”
I also don't want to hurt your kindness, keep myself away from you, and don't get involved in any strange relationships.
"However, I don't just treat you as my subordinate, I want to be more involved in your life." Even if she said this, Cheng Yichu still wouldn't give up, "I want to integrate into your life and be with you, okay?" “
His tone was gentle, but he put a lot of pressure on Ji Hannuo. She took a step back, smiled awkwardly, and said, "Mr. Cheng, don't be like this." Since the divorce, I just want to do my job wholeheartedly and don't want to be distracted by things outside of work, so ......"
"Since you have already divorced Jiang Liran, why can't you be with me?" Cheng Yichu didn't understand, "Or are you still clinging to the past?" Shouldn't life go on? ”
This sentence hit Ji Hannuo's mind, but her self-esteem made her not show it: "The reason why I don't want to start another relationship is not because of him, but because of myself, because I want to create better conditions for myself through my own hands." ”
"But it doesn't conflict with feelings." Cheng Yichu is still unwilling to give up, "With me, I will still support your work, and I will support anything you want." ”
Ji Hannuo shook his head slightly: "Mr. Cheng, I'm in a mess now, can you calm me down?" ”
Cheng Yichu slowly let go of his hand, and there was a sense of loneliness in his gentle tone: "Okay, I can wait for you." When you figure it out, you can answer me again. No matter how long it takes, I can wait for you! ”
Seeing that he let go, Ji Hannuo seized the right moment and quickly ran out of the kitchen, and then ran out of Cheng Yichu's house.
Cheng Yichu turned around and looked at the empty room in a trance. It seems that Hannuo has always refused to accept himself. Maybe in her heart, she always habitually left a place for Jiang Liran.
Ji Hannuo ran down quickly, and was still shocked until he got into the car. When she thought about her experience, she was a little overwhelmed and felt like she was in a dream.
At this time, the phone rang, Ji Hannuo picked it up, and saw that it was Cheng Yichu, so he didn't answer. After a while, calling one after another, Ji Hannuo simply pressed the shutdown button and threw the phone in his bag.
Out of sight, out of mind, this is the best way.
After taking the bus for more than an hour and walking for a long time, she returned to the Golden Harvest community. When she entered the door, Sue Yiyi was taken aback, and the potato chips that were about to be delivered to her mouth also stopped.
"Han Nuo, didn't you go to Mr. Cheng's house today? Why did you come back so soon? After Su Yi got out of bed, she suddenly found that Ji Hannuo's expression was not quite right, and she asked eagerly, "What happened?" Tell me, did Mr. Cheng bully you? ”
Ji Hannuo shook his head and sat down on the sofa, "Yiyi, it seems that I have to lose this part-time job again." ”
"What, aren't you doing well?" She didn't understand. Cheng is always a very good person, and he is also very interested in Han Nuo, and it should be impossible to do things that embarrass her.
Ji Hannuo bit his lower lip and told the truth: "It's just that Mr. Cheng confessed to me and asked me to be with him." ”
"What?" Su Yi's eyes widened. Although she knew it would be sooner or later, she didn't expect it to be so soon, "Wow, Mr. Cheng, this is too fast." How do you answer? ”
However, looking at Ji Hannuo's almost sluggish expression, Su Yiyi seemed to have guessed the result: "Have you rejected Mr. Cheng?" ”
