Chapter Twenty-Four: Photographs of Memory
Jiang Jinrui returned to the apartment, and after a pause, he began to sit at the desk and work, busy with the graphic design plan of the client's villa.
He was a little excited tonight and couldn't calm down, and he couldn't calm down to study the design plan.
Zhong Yahan's simple and quiet face always appeared in his mind, and he grinned unconsciously when he thought about it.
The desk is covered with many design drawings and various reference books, a bundle of markers and colored pencils are neatly stacked in the corner of the desk, and the desktop icons of the computer are numerous, and there are many folders.
Jiang Jinrui was halfway through the drawing, some inspiration dried up, he flipped through several books and couldn't find what he wanted to refer to, and suddenly remembered that there was a design plan in the computer that he had made a long time ago that was similar to this house.
He opened the computer folder and rummaged through it, but he couldn't find it.
Inadvertently, he clicked on the long-sealed folder on the computer desktop, which contained many memories of his college days, various daily activities of the four of them in the past, and a unique folder in the folder, which was filled with many photos of Zhong Yahan secretly taken by him during his college days.
His eyes flashed with emotion, he slid the mouse in his hand, carefully and carefully flipped through it, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and there was a little warmth in his heart.
All kinds of photos full of memories are presented in front of his eyes, including her studying and reading in the library, she running out of breath when she participated in the relay running race during the school sports meeting, wearing a beautiful costume before going on stage during the school celebration performance, and she shyly introduced herself on stage in the first elective class.
At that time, she was like a well-behaved little rabbit, so simple and kind that people couldn't help but feel protective.
Jiang Jinrui remembers the first time he saw her at the opening ceremony of the freshman, when she gave a speech as a representative of outstanding freshmen, and he learned for the first time that there was such an outstanding girl among his classmates.
Zhong Yahan entered the school that year, and among the freshmen in the department, her art and culture scores in the college entrance examination were the highest in the same class. Standing on the stage and giving a serious speech, she was gentle and elegant, pure and lovely, and became an unattainable goddess in the minds of most boys in the department that year.
At that time, he felt that Zhong Yahan was like a star in the sky, unattainable, until they inadvertently took the same elective course, and the words she said to him on the basketball court that year.
In fact, it was not his intention to take business etiquette as an elective, but when his roommate helped him choose a course, he accidentally clicked on the wrong course.
However, this is often how fate happens.
Two people who are like parallel lines suddenly intersect one day.
It's just that Jiang Jinrui was not excellent at that time, his college entrance examination results when he entered the school were pressed against the line, and his grades in the early stage of college were also very average, he belonged to the kind of student who didn't like to study very much, but his mind was very smart, and teachers often hated him for not being steel.
In the face of Zhong Yahan, who has such an excellent family background, he always feels that he is not worthy of her, and he is not a person with her, she is such an excellent girl, she deserves to have better boys.
He has always treated her as a good friend and given her the greatest friendship care, so even if he realized that he actually liked her in his heart, he chose not to confess, because he always felt that he would not be able to give her a good life in the future.
Later, a lot of things happened to his family, and the predicament of the family that year made him mature overnight, and he still wanted to stay by her side forever after he figured it out, but he didn't want to face her as inferior to her.
Since then, he has studied hard and participated in the competition to get the free study abroad spot, and he feels that he has to become a better person to stand in front of her, and swear that he will give her a lifetime of happiness.
Because of her, he became a better version of himself.
Now that he has become excellent, he can bravely stand in front of Zhong Yahan to confess and give her the firmest promise.
Jiang Jinrui opened the drawer under the desk and took out a picture album from it, which was a confession gift he designed for Zhong Yahan.
The confession gift was a white gold necklace with a basketball-shaped pendant on the bottom and a rotating number 6 in the middle.
He had been designing and revising for a few days, and now he was finally ready to make a custom, and basketball represented the first time she had quietly lived in his heart, 6 was because they had liked each other for six years.
His heart is full of anticipation, thinking of hurrying to customize the finished product before the date at the Dream Star Carnival, and he is carefully planning a romantic confession ceremony.
The next day, the weather was clear, a few thin white clouds floating in the wind in the clear blue sky, the sun at noon hung high in the middle of the sky, and the autumn sun was not so strong, covering the earth warmly.
Zhou Ningxin insisted on asking Zhong Yahan out during the lunch break, saying that she and Lan Yubin came to her near her company to find her and wanted to invite her to dinner.
Zhong Yahan wanted to take a nap a little lazily, and wanted to refuse, but she was so soft and hard that she had no choice but to go to the appointment.
Zhong Yahan ate by herself, and from time to time she saw the two people opposite each other sweetly feeding each other, and she was so affected that she couldn't concentrate on tasting the food.
These two must have been sent by Heaven to abuse her.
"Enough of you, have you considered my feelings as a single dog?" Zhong Yahan protested indignantly.
Zhou Ningxin scooped a mouthful of fried rice from the rice, stretched out towards Zhong Yahan, and asked jokingly, "Why don't you have a bite too?" ”
"I don't eat this dog food." Zhong Yahan shook her head in disgust and quickly avoided her face.
"Then Binbin, let's eat." Under Zhong Yahan's disdainful gaze, Zhou Ningxin kindly fed Lan Yubin again.
Lan Yubin was fed by Zhou Ningxin with a happy face, and then raised his head and smiled at Zhong Yahan with some embarrassment.
Zhong Yahan got goosebumps when she looked at the behavior of the two people opposite, she shook her head helplessly and said, "You two are so numb, I can't accept it." ”
Don't let her rest at noon, just come to show her affection in front of the single Wang, who did she recruit to provoke whom?
"Don't be jealous of me, you can ask your family Jinrui to feed you." Zhou Ningxin said with a wicked smile.
"No, I don't need him to feed me, not to mention it's not our family." When Zhong Yahan heard Jiang Jinrui's name, her heart beat a little faster.
"A duplicitous woman obviously wants him to feed." Zhou Ningxin ruthlessly debunked her.
Zhong Yahan chose not to continue answering, but just glanced at Zhou Ningxin with contempt.
"By the way, Yahan, I heard that you had a great date last night." Lan Yubin, who had been sitting on the side and had been eating quietly, suddenly smiled and spoke ill-willedly.
Zhong Yahan's heart chuckled, and sure enough, she guessed correctly at all, these two people came specifically to inquire about the progress of their date last night.
"Don't think too much about it, we're pure." Zhong Yahan waved his hand and pretended to be disapproving.
Suddenly, she asked herself, "Are we really pure?" ”
Thinking about it, she suddenly remembered the scene of the two of them clasping their fingers last night, and she looked down and smiled a little shyly.
"Oh, purity? We didn't say anything politely, so you don't admit yourself. Zhou Ningxin caught Zhong Yahan's expression changing and teased again and again.
When Zhong Yahan heard Zhou Ningxin's ridicule, her heart became even more empty, and she didn't dare to speak anymore.
"Haha, okay, Xinxin, let Yahan go, look at her shy." Lan Yubin interrupted Zhou Ningxin's desire to continue teasing.
Then he took out a thick piece of information from the briefcase behind him and put it in front of Zhong Yahan.
"Yahan, our company is recently developing a new game, the theme is "Youth Crush", I think it suits you very well, I want to ask if you can help design the original drawing of the mobile game and online game interface of this game? Lan Yubin asked sincerely.
"Yes, I'll go back and give it a try." Zhong Yahan picked up the information that Lan Yubin put in front of her, carefully flipped through the contents, and then readily agreed.
"By the way, there are also scenes of online games and mobile games of this game that need to be modeled with 3Dmax, this Lao Jiang is very good at it, you can help me tell him, let him help me draw." Lan Yubin suddenly showed a wicked smile and said to Zhong Yahan cheekily.
"Just tell him no?" Zhong Yahan refused, this Lan Yubin must have deliberately not looked for him personally.
"I looked for it, he rejected me, I want you to help me say, he will definitely agree, he listens to you very much, who called you his beloved?" Lan Yubin said and laughed meaningfully.
"Xinxin, take care of your family Yubin, you are about to be taught badly." Zhong Yahan complained jokingly to Zhou Ningxin.
"I'm going to teach him badly, whoever makes you two always have no good news at all." Zhou Ningxin took a leisurely sip of juice and waved her hand to show that she couldn't do anything.
"That guy Lao Jiang has been mysterious lately, and I don't know what he's doing." Lan Yubin remembered something and said with some doubts.
"Why hasn't he confessed yet? The daylilies were all cold, and he was still boiling the frogs in warm water. Zhou Ningxin said a little anxiously.
"He said he was going to find the right time to have an unforgettable confession ceremony." Lan Yubin suddenly revealed everything he knew.
"Dare to love this Jiang Jinrui, and make the confession the same as a marriage proposal?" Zhou Ningxin said with some tears and laughter.
Zhong Yahan listened to the conversation between the two of them, her cheeks were like fire, and her puffs were flushed, she lowered her head nervously, her eyes looked away uncomfortably, and she didn't dare to meet the gossip glances of the two opposite.
Xie Yingyao was about to go home from work, she walked out of the elevator listlessly, and when she was about to walk to the card gate, she happened to meet Jiang Jinrui and Yi Wen, who were concentrating on chatting about work, and when they passed by her, she suddenly reacted.
Xie Yingyao turned around and shouted Jiang Jinrui's name, stopping him who almost walked into the elevator.
Jiang Jinrui looked at Xie Yingyao, who was approaching him, suspiciously, and asked politely, "Is there anything wrong?" ”
"I... I'd like to talk to you. Xie Yingyao said a little nervously.
"What are you talking about?" Jiang Jinrui asked at her puzzled, then turned his head to look at Yi Wen and gave her an inquiring look.
Yi Wen shrugged her shoulders and waved her hand to indicate that she didn't know either.
"Can she avoid it?" Xie Yingyao pointed at Yi Wen with some unfriendliness.
"You go up first." Jiang Jinrui put the stack of construction drawings in his hand into Yi Wen's hand and said softly.
Yi Wen nodded, answered, and took the elevator upstairs by herself.
However, she felt a little puzzled, since she came back from the hot spring resort, why did Xie Yingyao look at her with hostility in her eyes?
Jiang Jinrui and Xie Yingyao came to the reception area in the lobby downstairs of the company, Jiang Jinrui put his hands on his trouser belt, stood straight, and looked at Xie Yingyao with an indifferent look.
Xie Yingyao looked up and saw his clear eyes, high nose bridge, thin lip line, and handsome face, and she couldn't suppress her heartbeat.
She scratched her head and smirked at him, a little bewildered.
The two were silent for a while, then he moved his Adam's apple slightly, and asked softly in a magnetic voice, "Do you want to talk to me about something?" ”
"I... I was trying to ask you, don't you like sandwiches? Why every time I bring you breakfast, you return it. Xie Yingyao asked resignedly.
"Oh, I don't like sandwiches, don't give them to me in the future." Jiang Jinrui thought for a moment and replied lightly.
"And what do you like? I'll do it for you. Xie Yingyao asked a little anxiously when she heard this disappointing answer.
"No, I don't eat breakfast, thank you." He smiled politely at her.
Xie Yingyao lowered her head in disbelief, muttering, "Okay." ”
"Is there anything else you want to say? I'll go upstairs first, I still have a lot of work to do. Jiang Jinrui finished speaking and was about to leave.
He hadn't walked a few steps before he heard Xie Yingyao shouting behind him.
"Jiang Jinrui, I like you."
