Chapter 56: Light or Darkness?
Jiayi didn't come home until late at night, Chen Mo was already asleep, she opened the door with the key, climbed into bed, covered herself in the quilt, and let herself cry.
The next day, she didn't go to work, she slept at home all day, and when Chen Mo came to knock on the door, she only said that she was not feeling well.
At noon, she received a call from Lu Shenghua, saying that her father was fine.
She knew that everything was because of Yi Zecheng.
After hanging up the phone, Yi Zecheng's call came in.
His voice was so calm that nothing had happened, and he politely asked her, "Do you have time to eat together tonight?" ”
Jiayi can't refuse, she no longer has the qualifications to refuse.
In the evening, Jiayi went to the appointment.
The restaurant he took her to was also newly opened, the tallest building in the city, with an all-glass floor half-in the air, which must not have been used to people with a fear of heights.
Fortunately, dry ice was released from time to time in the restaurant, and the entire floor seemed to be stuck in a cloud.
The manager of the restaurant personally came out to greet him and brought champagne, and they sat right in front of the chessboard-like street market, and everything looked down like a set.
Yi Zecheng had already finished reading the menu and handed it to the waiter: "I recommend it." ”
The waiter asked, "Mr. Yi, are you going to serve the food immediately?" ”
Yi Zecheng seemed a little careless: "There is also a guest, wait for him to come and serve the food." ”
Jiayi didn't expect that there were other people besides them, and the people who could make Yi Zecheng and others really have a big shelf.
For some reason, Jiayi suddenly had a bad premonition.
He's not going to be bored enough to let Lily come over and eat with him, hug?
But what Lu Jiayi never dreamed of was that the person Yi Zecheng was waiting for turned out to be Gu Weisheng.
When the waiter led him over, Jiayi looked stupid.
She thought she was wrong, and rubbed her eyes vigorously, either she put dry ice so that she was hallucinating, but that person was really Gu Weisheng.
Although he was wearing a suit, and although he looked very strange to her, he was Gu Weisheng.
Gu Weisheng also seemed to be surprised, but he only glanced at her, and then turned his head to look at Yi Zecheng.
Yi Zecheng sat there and didn't move, only said lightly: "Sit down." Then he turned back and told the waiter, "It's time to serve." ”
Jiayi didn't quite know what she was thinking anymore, she just didn't dare to look up, twisting the napkin with both hands, as if the napkin was her own neck.
"Doctor Gu, no, it's time to call you Mr. Gu."
Yi Zecheng emphasized the word Mr. Gu.
Jiayi suddenly understood, Gu Weisheng finally returned to the Gu family.
For the next meal, Jiayi didn't know the taste of the food.
She completely understood that Yi Zecheng brought her here for only two purposes, one was to swear sovereignty in front of Gu Weisheng, and the other was to tell herself that Gu Weisheng was no longer the Gu Weisheng of the past.
Jiayi plucked up the courage to say that she wanted to go to the bathroom, but Yi Zecheng ignored her at all, he remained silent and talked to Gu Weisheng blindly.
Neither of them paid any attention to her. They were just talking to each other.
But Jiayi felt like she was in an ice cave, and even her fingertips were cold.
The waiter began to serve the food and poured them wine.
Yi Zecheng finally turned around and said to her, "Don't drink if you have a cold." Then she was given the juice.
She couldn't even grin at him.
Gu Weisheng has completely surrendered, has he?
He completely drew a line with himself, from the moment he chose to take refuge in Yi Zecheng.
She couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.
After a long time, she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't care, she figured it out, and then, she decided to eat the signature dish here.
Halfway through the meal, Yi Zecheng walked away for about ten minutes because he answered a phone call, and only she and Gu Weisheng were left in the seat.
She didn't say a word, still eating her favorite whitebait soup.
Gu Weisheng didn't speak, he ate really well, methodically, just like the teacher usually demonstrates in the laboratory, beakers and test tubes, everything is handy, it makes her panic.
On the car back, Jiayi sat very peacefully, looking at the blurred lights outside the car window, the night scene of the city is always so noisy and noisy.
I don't know who invented the word "dinner", it's really a bureau, a bureau set up under the pretext of eating.
Yi Zecheng was silent all night, she didn't know what he was thinking, anyway, she never saw through him, it was too tiring to guess his thoughts.
Or he simply warned her to stay away from Gu Weisheng.
But Yi Zecheng was too worried, she didn't need his warning, she also knew that it was time to stay away from Gu Weisheng in the future.
Because, tonight's Gu Weisheng was too quiet.
Both men were unfathomable and frightened her.
She didn't sleep well at night and woke up in the morning with dark circles under her eyes.
If you want to cover it up with eyeshadow in the mirror, it's not good to put on red or purple, it's always like you've cried. Sulking and throwing the small brush, it hit the mirror with a "snap" sound, and bounced to the ground again.
Yi Zecheng turned lazily over on the bed: "What's wrong?" ”
Jiayi was silent, bent down to find the little eyeshadow brush, and didn't know where it fell.
This pajama is another tight style, the waist is pinched just right, she squatted there, only to feel that the clothes are too much to breathe.
"Looking for what?" He asked, "Early in the morning, I thought I was an early riser, but you got up earlier than I did." ”
The soft satin slippers stepped on the small, thin hard object, and she removed her foot and picked up the little brush from the pile of the carpet.
He got up and saw her continue to put on makeup, and he asked, "What?" Didn't sleep well? ”
Jiayi replied lightly: "I'll choose the bed." ”
He laughed: "If you propose to go to your house, I will not object."
She knew that she couldn't win him on her tongue, and said sullenly, "I should go." ”
"It's still so early," he said, looking at his watch, "come with me to dinner and play ball early." ”
She had never been interested in any kind of exercise, but he spent the morning with great interest in teaching her how to hold a pole.
She knew his intentions, and in the entire stadium, there were at least five people in the business world who looked straight.
Especially the chairman of the store, finally couldn't help but come over and ask: "This is ......?"
Yi Zecheng said lightly: "My friend Miss Lu Jiayi." ”
Then the other party said a lot of flattering words, paused and asked, "When will the two of you invite us to drink wedding wine?" ”
Without waiting for her to speak, Yi Zecheng said: "Miss Lu and I are just ordinary friends. ”
When the man heard this, he couldn't help but point at him and smile: "Old friend, can you still deceive me?" You have always brought women here to leave others behind, let them be spectators on the sidelines, and today you are the coach in person, this Miss Lu is an exception, and she said that she is just an ordinary friend? ”
When he saw Yi Zecheng's face tense, he suddenly realized, didn't he say this, wasn't he revealing Yi Zecheng's old accounts?
No wonder he was unhappy, this Miss Lu would inevitably be jealous when she heard it, she was really confused.
But after thinking about it, seeing this Yi Zecheng nervous like this, thinking that this Lu Jiayi's status in his heart could be seen, he hurriedly smiled and said: "Miss Lu, don't be too careful, I'm playing with Zecheng, he has always been attentive, you should know." ”
Engrossed?
Jiayi couldn't help but sneer in her heart.
What is Yi Zecheng, she couldn't be clearer, and she still needs you to be an outsider to say?
As soon as he walked away, Yi Zecheng said to Jiayi with a smile: "If you ask him for help now, I bet he will be willing to help you." ”
She knew that although he was telling a joke, it was the truth, and she felt even more uncomfortable, so she turned her face away and poked the grass with her club.
He knew she didn't like to talk to him, but he liked to tease her: "What's the matter, dumb?" ”
He is a great benefactor of her and the Lu family, and she can't offend: "It's nothing." ”
"How do you feel like you're angry?" He held out his index finger to lift her face, "The first lesson you'll learn is to smile." In any case, in front of anyone, you have to laugh and smile brightly, even if you hate the other person to death, you have to laugh and talk to him. When he thinks you're harmless, it's not too late to give him another knife. ”
Jiayi took a deep breath and smiled at him. He is right, in this world, she has too many things to learn, and she will learn well and study hard.
He pecked lightly on her smiling face like a spring flower: "You can teach you, I will train you well." ”
The difficulties in front of her were temporarily overcome, but she was not necessarily much easier.
It was too difficult to be with Yi Zecheng, his mind was difficult to fathom, it became too fast, and it turned too fast, so she had to try hard to keep up.
To be honest, during this period of time, Yi Zecheng has treated her well, except for sometimes calling her stupid and saying that she "can't be carved with rotten wood", most of the time he is still good to get along with, especially when he is a gentleman, polite and thoughtful, and he will not lose his demeanor when the sky falls.
It's like the same person before.
He taught her a lot of things, from being a human being to doing business.
Some of them were those he said to her, "You learn a little bit by the side," and some of them she realized by looking at them herself.
She likes to watch him talk to his assistant on the phone, and that kind of killing decision is not easily seen by outsiders.
His tone is the most ordinary, just like saying to her on weekdays, "Accompany me to dinner at night", but to the assistant, what he said was a thrilling content: "Withdraw the investment, I don't want to see this company tomorrow." ”
He would occasionally talk to her about business affairs, and he would always be sarcastic about the financial tycoons, and he was very vicious and mean when he satirized people, and she was sometimes the object of this sarcasm, because she was stupid.
In fact, there are still many people who praise her for being smart, but with someone as smart as him, she looks clumsy.
Jiayi didn't understand why Yi Zecheng would say this to her and teach her this, but the only thing she knew was that she was now like a puppet in Yi Zecheng's hand, as long as the thread was still pulling, she would never be able to escape from him, and could only be at his mercy.
Yi Zecheng sometimes couldn't stand the people around him and couldn't pay attention to him for a long time, and complained at first, but later he felt that it was really hopeless, so he lowered his requirements and didn't talk about her anymore.
After following him for a long time, I have somewhat touched his temper, which is just a matter of living habits, what he likes to eat, what he doesn't like to eat, and so on.
He has always gotten up early, but if he doesn't sleep well, he will get up angry, and he will be angry with his face, and he will even play ball at an abnormal level. So when he doesn't sleep well, don't mess with him.
It added a little bit of humanity to him--but she was still afraid of him, and the longer she was with him, the more she was afraid, and he had put a lot of effort into cultivating her, and she couldn't think of what he wanted.
Over time, she didn't bother to speculate on his thoughts.
Because she knew, no matter what she thought, she couldn't guess.
She hadn't seen Gu Weisheng since that night.
Chen Mo returned to Paris, and Jiayi moved out of Gu Weisheng's apartment.
However, she really couldn't think of what attracted him to him and attracted him to help.
Yi Zecheng completely handed over Cosini to her, and in addition to being in charge of the design part, he also let her manage the entire studio.
She kind of understood, she had been tutoring herself before, probably ready to hand over Cosini to her.
However, fortunately, she lived up to her expectations and kept Cosini in good order, and under the guidance and protection of Yi Zecheng, she gradually found a little way in her official affairs.
In terms of business management, although she is not from a professional class and is not familiar with this industry, she has his guidance behind her back, and the master is a high-level apprentice.
Although she was always ridiculed by him, she was trained by him and learned a little bit from him.
Everyone thought she was Yi Zecheng's close girlfriend, and they were willing to give her face, but she didn't have a hard time coping with it.
She gradually brought Cosini on the right track, and gradually became famous internationally.
In this way, she was busy unconsciously, and Yi Zecheng was also busy - he had recently become interested in a beautiful female lawyer, and he pursued it relentlessly.
There were fewer opportunities for the two to meet, so Jiayi simply looked for a house and moved out.
I hadn't seen my father for a long time, so I drove home with my bag and went to see it.
As soon as she came home, she quarreled with her stepmother.
Because Cosini had previously downsized, she laid off her stepmother's nephew.
The stepmother's nephew was the former stepmother who did everything possible to get rid of the job she gave her.
However, her nephew had no education and had to work as a security guard.
Who knows, his security guard is also restless, three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, not to mention late arrivals and early departures, and let some inexplicable people go into the studio, and almost stole the design of the new product.
One mistake after another, even for the sake of her stepmother's face, she couldn't continue to endure it.
In the end, she had to fire him in accordance with the company's rules and regulations.
The stepmother was actually dissatisfied with her for a long time, but she couldn't see her, and when she heard that she was home, she walked into the living room angrily: "Yo, Jiayi is back?" What a rarity, I thought you wouldn't see our Lu family for the rest of your life. ”
In the past, she would have endured it with her head down, but today she had just finished working in the studio, and she wanted to go home to see it because of her kindness, and as a result, when she came home to listen to her words, she was angry and funny: "This is my home, and it is only natural for me to come back." ”
"Yo! I also know that this is your home, and I know that all the people in this house are your family, I thought that you followed the surname Yi, and you have long forgotten what your surname is, and you have long forgotten that this is still your home! ”
Jiayi smiled faintly: "Auntie, I respect you as an elder, please respect yourself too." ”
Father Lu was on the side, and when he saw that the two were tense, he got up to play a round.
Who knows, it's okay if he doesn't open his mouth, but when he opens his mouth, it adds fuel to the fire, crying and shouting for a while, and he can't get along.
Jiayi didn't want to continue to entangle with her, so she directly picked up her bag and walked out.
When she closed the door and got into the car, she sulked. I sat there for a long time, and I didn't bother to move.
In the end, I couldn't help it and called Yi Zecheng.
It rang for a long time and no one answered, she thought he had forgotten the phone in the car again, and was about to hang up, but it was connected.
"It's me."
Yi Zecheng couldn't help laughing: "Didn't you say you went home, why did you call me again?" You can't miss me. ”
She smiled "": "Who will miss you!" With you, you always call me stupid and say that I am useless. ”
"Then what are you calling me for?"
"I'm afraid you'll forget me."
He sighed: "Didn't you say that you are always worried when you are with me?" I forgot you're not right? ”
Jiayi pouted, "Then what about my father?" What about Cosini? ”
Yi Zecheng couldn't help but smile, "A woman who is too frank will scare a man away." ”
"You said that you hate women the most, and you want to lie to you with sweet words."
He laughed: "It's really strange, every time you don't like to talk to me in person, you only answer one out of ten questions, and when you talk about the phone, you are sharp and sharp." ”
Yi Zecheng smiled, although she couldn't see it, she knew it.
He said, "Now you can rest assured, I will not forget you for the next few days." After a pause, he asked, "Is it really okay, you called on purpose?" ”
Jiayi knows that he can't hide it from him, he will always have insight into heaven.
She couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I went home with kindness, bought a bunch of things and went home to visit, but as a result, kindness was treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, and people didn't appreciate it, and I quarreled with someone, and I felt very sad." ”
"And the family?"
"Hmm."
He said, "I have a panacea, a trick to make you happy, do you believe it or not?" ”
"So amazing? You think you're Liu Qian. ”
"Who is Liu Qian?"
Jiayi was happy when she heard it, "You don't even know Liu Qian?" He is a man who has been to the Spring Festival Gala, and the next moment is to witness the miracle, this is his famous saying. ”
"Then do you want him to accompany you?"
"Come on, you'd better call your panacea."
Yi Zecheng smiled and said, "In this way, you go shopping for four hours and buy a lot of clothes, and you are guaranteed to be happy." ”
Jiayi couldn't help but feel funny when she heard it, and asked, "You don't have any new tricks?" ”
"Why not? Finally, sign the bill with my credit card. You'll be so happy at the thought of spending my money. ”
She laughed "squeak", he spoke so poisonously, even when he said that he was so mean.
She had a credit card from him, and he said it was a prop.
Every few days, it is always necessary to let people know that she is using his money to buy fashion jewelry, so that others will not be suspicious.
As soon as he said it today, I really wanted to try it.
