Gray era Fanwai Snow Banyan
2101 Paula Company Fengtian Headquarters Early Summer
"Knock knock..."
"Director Liu, I'm Qi Mo. There's something I want to talk to you about, is it convenient for you? β
On the seventh floor of Paula's company, in front of Liu Xuerong's office, Qi Mo hesitated at the door for a long time, and finally knocked on the door. Fortunately, Paula's company has a constant temperature central air conditioner all year round, otherwise Qi Mo's thick white coat would have covered him a long time ago.
"Wait a minute!"
Liu Xuerong, who was originally sorting out the information, heard that the person outside the door was Qi Mo, first shouted at the door in a panic, and no longer cared about the work at hand, and hurriedly took out the lipstick and foundation from the bag beside him, and quickly made up for the makeup mirror on the desk. Finally, he took out his favorite rose-scented perfume and sprayed it twice in the room.
"Come in!"
In less than half a minute, Liu Xuerong appeared at the door of her office and opened the door with joy.
"Uh... Director Liu, you..."
Qi Mo originally thought that Liu Xuerong was working, and he would let him in after he dealt with it. But who would have thought that his boss would take the initiative to open the door for his subordinates, which made Qi Mo a little flattered.
"Come, sit down!"
Liu Xuerong grabbed Qi Mo's arm and pulled him to the sofa in the office to sit down.
"Director Liu..."
"Are you thirsty? I'll pour you a glass of water. β
"No..."
As soon as Qi Mo sat down, he wanted to express his intention directly, but Liu Xuerong didn't seem to give him this opportunity, but happily went to the water dispenser and poured Qi Mo a glass of ice water to quench his thirst.
"Thank you."
Qi Mo wanted to refuse, but his boss had already handed him the water, and he had to take it if he didn't take it.
"If you're tired, you can rest for a while, and then you'll talk about it later. I have a little cake here, would you like to eat some? β
Liu Xuerong said to Qi Mo with little stars in her eyes, and without waiting for Qi Mo to agree, she got up and went to the drawer to get the small cake.
"Director Liu! ... I really don't need to... I just want to take a leave of absence, and I'm going to leave work after that..."
Qi Mo really couldn't stand his boss's excessive enthusiasm for him, and he regretted coming to the office alone. However, he also knew that he couldn't let his boss get off the stage, so the tone that had just raised his tone softened again.
"Can you stop calling me Director Liu? Sounds old, right? β
Liu Xuerong's focus was not on what I was going to say at all, but pretended to be angry and complained to Qi Mo.
"That's... Sister Liu? I just want to take a leave of absence, my dad's heart has not been good for the past two days, and I want to take him to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow morning. And tomorrow's work has been completed in advance, can you allow me to take a vacation? β
In a hurry, Qi Mo directly changed his title to Sister Liu, and said everything he wanted to say in one go.
After finishing speaking, Qi Mo exhaled a deep breath of turbidity.
"Uncle is sick? Isn't it serious? Do you want me to go with you? β
After Liu Xuerong learned that Qi Mo's father was not feeling well, she directly put away the expression of complaint just now, and instead stared at Qi Mo with a worried face and asked.
"It's an old problem, I have to go to the hospital every three or five days to check it up, and I can find it early and treat it early..."
Qi Mo didn't expect that his leader cared about his family, so he said a few more words.
"If you have a heart problem, you have to be careful. Is half a day enough? If not, how about giving you a day off? β
Liu Xuerong continued.
"No, no, no. I guess it's about taking care of the body and doing check-ups or something. Half a day is enough. β
With the approval of the leader, Qi Mo's heart finally relaxed. Although this Liu Xuerong is overly enthusiastic, he is a good boss and will be considerate of his subordinates.
"That's okay, if you don't have time to go to work by then, it's okay, just give me a call."
Liu Xuerong is a good person to the end, and gave me the maximum limit to let Qi Mo accompany his father.
"Thank you, Sister Liu. That... I'll leave work first. β
After the matter was discussed, Qi Mo didn't want to stay here anymore, so he stood up and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute, there's something I haven't told you yet."
Liu Xuerong saw that Qi Mo was leaving, and hurriedly stopped him.
"Anything else? Then you have to speak quickly. I can't catch the bus when it's late. β
Qi Mo looked at the watch on his wrist, and it was five o'clock in five minutes. The shuttle bus won't wait for him.
"Uh... That is true. Our company organizes trips abroad every two years. You didn't catch up last time, and this year it's just in time. The day after tomorrow, next Friday. β
In order to let Qi Mo stay with her for a while, Liu Xuerong told Qi Mo about this matter in advance in a hurry.
"Traveling abroad? I... I've never heard of it... Does everyone have to participate? β
Qi Mo was stunned, and finally asked Liu Xuerong with some doubts.
"Of course! Everyone in the company is going to participate. You can understand it as team building. By the way, all expenses will be reimbursed by the company, and we don't need to take a penny. β
Liu Xuerong, who was originally an expert in the workplace, was as nervous as she was when she came to the company for an interview for the first time in the face of her subordinate at this time. My heart was pounding.
"Well... bar. Then I'll go first. β
Qi Mohu nodded suspiciously, indicating that he knew, and then wanted to leave the office.
"Huh! Qi Mo... You don't know where we're going..."
Liu Xuerong's cheeks quickly rose with two flushes, and she even looked at Qi Mo a little shyly.
"This... I don't really care. It's the same everywhere. I'll go first, bye-bye. β
Qi Mo smiled at the end, and then opened the glass door of the office.
ββββββ
"It shouldn't be... No wrinkles! Xiaoguo, have I become ugly lately? Why doesn't he call me Director Liu or call me Sister Liu? Am I that old? β
In the single dormitory of Baola's company, Liu Xuerong is sitting in front of the dresser, with a pink rabbit ear headband stuck on her head, carefully massaging her face with skin care products. He also asked another girl who was lying on a large pink bed.
"Old what? Want me to say, Prince Charming? The man was a piece of wood. What kind of vision? Listen to my sister's persuasion and pull it down! β
The girl named Xiaoguo was wearing a mask, shaking her feet, holding the ipad in front of her and brushing romance dramas, and said perfunctorily to Liu Xuerong irresponsibly.
"Hey, it's the first time I've seen someone like you, do you understand that one thing descends another? My male god and I haven't come to a result yet, so we're going to be strangled in the cradle? What thoughts! β
When Liu Xuerong heard that her best friend actually complained about her Prince Charming, she was immediately unhappy.
"Yo Yo Yo, return my male god... I've known you for more than ten years, and I haven't seen you care so much about a man. How? Sichun? β
"Lu Xiaoguo! I have to teach you a lesson today! β
"Oops! Hahaha... Stop scratching! I'm wearing a mask! β
In the silence of the night, two girls chattered in the room...
"Magic Mirror, Magic Mirror, you tell me. Who is the most beautiful woman in the world. β
After some fighting, Liu Xuerong sat back in front of the dresser again, and asked the mirror in front of her very reverently.
"Of course it's our Director Liu. Hahahaha..."
Lu Xiaoguo's yin and yang strange voice came into Liu Xuerong's ears again.
"Deer Fruit !!"
βββββββ
"Morning director!"
"Early."
"Director, here's your coffee."
"Thank you."
The morning before her trip abroad, Liu Xuerong was walking from her dormitory to her office.
Along the way, the company's employees greeted her one after another, and she responded one by one.
Liu Xuerong is still dressed in a professional formal suit as usual, with two strands of hair hanging down on both sides of her cheeks, and the rest of her hair is neatly tied into a ponytail. With a delicate and not tacky makeup, coupled with a slashing lipstick, the whole person's aura is as powerful as it is. It attracted the attention of both married and unmarried men in the company.
"Qi Mo?! Why did you arrive so early?! β
was walking towards the office, Liu Xuerong suddenly saw the male god who haunted her, and her feet suddenly softened. If it weren't for the surrounding walls, I'm sure I'd be sitting on the ground at this point.
"Ah, I'd like to talk to you about something."
Qi Mo said politely at Liu Xuerong with a smile.
"Well... Good... Go in and say..."
Liu Xuerong came to Qi Mo's side with difficulty, took out the key to the office, and tried to insert the key into the lock hole with trembling hands.
"Sister Liu? Are you okay? β
Qi Mo didn't quite understand why Liu Xuerong was shaking so much, so he asked out loud.
"I... I... Why don't you open it? β
Liu Xuerong didn't insert the key for a long time, and finally simply handed the key to Qi Mo.
Although Qi Mo was very puzzled, he finally took the key and opened the door of the office very easily, and he didn't go in first, but asked Liu Xuerong to go first.
"Sister Liu, your face is not good, is there something uncomfortable?"
Qi Mo frowned and looked at Liu Xuerong and asked, this is at most a simple greeting.
"No, I'm comfortable!"
Liu Xuerong's brain has been short-circuited. She didn't expect Qi Mo to come to a "surprise attack" so early, and she was not prepared at all. So I said something quite ambiguous without thinking.
"Comfortable with what?"
"Huh? It's nothing, it's just too sudden..."
"What suddenly?"
"Ahh It's nothing! That one... Uncle's body is fine, right? β
After a series of inhuman exchanges, Liu Xuerong took the initiative to change the topic to cover up the gaffe just now.
"No... What a problem. It's retired and idle at home. It would be nice to go out for a walk more. β
Qi Mo didn't expect Liu Xuerong to be quite attentive, so he told her the real situation.
"That's good, that's good... You... Come to me so early..."
In the end, Liu Xuerong only felt hot and thirsty. The little heart also began to beat violently.
"Oh yes. I want to ask if I can travel abroad without going to? Dr. Chen's nuclear clonal regeneration research project has a lot of unsolved problems, and I want to stay and continue my research. Do you think it's okay? β
Only then did Qi Mo remember the purpose of his trip. He didn't have much interest in traveling, otherwise he wouldn't have joined Paula as a bioengineering researcher. If you want to travel, wouldn't it be nice to go to a travel agency to find a job?
"That's not going to work! Absolutely not! You think, the whole company will be involved, including Dr. Chen! So you don't have to stay in the company at all! Work is never done, and if you have the opportunity to relax, of course, you should relax! β
As soon as Liu Xuerong heard Qi Mo say this, she was like a cat with her tail stepped on, and she was immediately unhappy.
"I... I'm just asking... I didn't say I had to stay in the company... Don't get excited..."
Qi Mo saw that his leader reacted so violently, and immediately began to explain to himself.
"Sister Liu, I don't know where to travel yet. Can you tell me ahead of time? β
In fact, almost everyone in the company knows where to travel, but only those who are workaholic and have a lot of business are not interested in this. It just so happens that Qi Mo is half a workaholic, and he still has a lot of work to do, so he still doesn't know where to travel.
"Greece, Aegean."
Liu Xuerong pursed her lips and said a little shyly.
"Greece? So far, huh? How long will it take to go abroad? β
As soon as Qi Mo heard that he was going to Greece, his face collapsed. I thought I would return to China in about two days, but it's good, I guess it will take a week!
"About four or five days. That's the Aegean Sea... What a romantic place... You have to go! If you don't go, I'll trouble you every day in the future! β
Liu Xuerong saw Qi Mo's embarrassed expression, and immediately said with a threatening face.
She wouldn't pass up such a great opportunity! You must bring Qi Mo to the Aegean Sea! When the time comes, the beautiful scenery will be seen, the little red wine will be drunk, and the two will chat again...
"Huh? Don't don't, don't go, can't I go? β
When Qi Mo heard that he was going to trouble him every day, he was immediately dumbfounded. Hurriedly waved his hand and said that he would participate in this team building.
"Bring a few nice clothes, we're going to take a lot of pictures!"
Liu Xuerong saw that Qi Mo finally agreed, and immediately frowned. She has already begun to fantasize about what will happen in the Aegean ...
Early the next morning, at the gate of Paula's company.
Ten brand-new buses were parked in front of the company, and the pure black body was neatly printed with a "B" pattern.
"Qi Mo! Over here! β
Qi Mo, who had just arrived at the door of the company by shuttle, heard an excited and slightly shy woman's voice.
"Ah, here we are."
Qi Mo followed the prestige and found that it was Liu Xuerong who was exaggeratedly waving his graceful arm at him. Immediately pulled a small suitcase and walked towards his leader.
Today's Liu Xuerong is dressed up very beautifully. The original long brown hair was braided into a few twists by her, and finally these few strands of twist braids were pinned around her forehead in a circle. The makeup on the face is not as heavy as usual, but very light and gentle. It gives a sweet feeling of falling in love at first sight.
He wears a cherry-shaped red earring in each ear, and a silver-white rabbit-like necklace is tied around his slender swan-like neck.
The upper body is a light blue cotton shirt with a tight waist and a crop top, and the lower body is a pair of pure white small hot pants with broken edges. A pair of slender and straight thighs are exposed to the air, and under his feet are a pair of pale blue canvas shoes. Pulling a small pink suitcase beside him. Coupled with a burgundy metal bracelet on her right wrist, the whole person is like a foreign princess who is unwilling to marry a man arranged by the family, and finally ran to the vast city to find her own male god.
"Why are you wearing such a thick one? We're going to Greece! Not Antarctica! β
Liu Xuerong said with some complaint after Qi Mo got closer.
Today's Qi Mo is the same as usual, wearing ordinary black casual clothes and a coat. Although the season in Mukden is early summer, and the temperature is also very pleasant, it is still a little cold in the morning, so I wear an extra coat.
"It's quite cold in the morning, it's not good for your body to wear such a little bit, and it's easy to catch a cold."
I have to say that Liu Xuerong is really good-looking and sexy. Qi Mo didn't look at it twice, and he was really sorry for his age of blood and strength. So he said this half-greeting, half-concerned.
"Are you caring about me?!"
Liu Xuerong couldn't hear this, and immediately looked up at Qi Mo with little stars in his eyes.
"Huh? Be... Oh, yes? It's not really summer yet, so you have to pay attention to your body. β
Qi Mo didn't think much about it, and nodded directly.
"Little Banyan! Be reserved! Don't act like a female hooligan! The initiative is for them men to do! All you have to do is say no! β
Lu Xiaoguo, who had been standing aside, suddenly fell in Liu Xuerong's ear like a ghost at this time and reminded.
"Ahh Qi Mo, let me introduce, this is my best friend, Lu Xiaoguo! Xiaoguo, this is me... Friend, Qi Mo! β
Seeing that Qi Mo was looking at himself and Lu Xiaoguo suspiciously, Liu Xuerong introduced the other party to Qi Mo at the moment.
"Hello. You're not an employee of our company, are you? Look at the noodles. β
Qi Mo stretched out his hand very kindly and took the initiative to talk.
"Well, I'm not from this company, it was Xiao Rong who took me on a trip."
Lu Xiaoguo also stretched out his hand and shook Qi Mo and explained.
"Can you bring someone with you?"
Qi Mo was surprised, how could he still take someone on a trip with him? Self-funded or publicly-funded?
"Everyone is here! Let's get in the car now and go to the airport! β
At this moment, a senior leader of the company was holding a loudspeaker, standing in front of the bus and saying to everyone.
"Ahh This one... Let's talk about it when we get in the car. β
Liu Xuerong didn't rush to explain, but changed the topic.
"Xiao Qi."
In the hall on the first floor of Paula's company, a middle-aged man in his fifties walked in. He was carrying a brown suitcase and a pair of thick nearsighted glasses on his face, and walked towards Qi Mo with a smile.
"Dr. Chen."
It was Dr. Chen, and Qi Mo politely replied
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Should.
"Let's go, it's time to get in the car."
After speaking, Dr. Chan walked towards the bus.
A bus can hold more than 20 people, and all the employees of Baola Company began to put their luggage on the bus in an orderly manner.
The two girls standing in front of Qi Mo were whispering, and Qi Mo couldn't hear what the two were talking about.
"Xiao Rong, you should let him sit next to you in a while, so that you two can talk quietly!"
"Didn't you just say let him take the initiative? Why did you let me take the initiative again? β
"Oh, you were like a female hooligan just now, and you almost didn't come out! Remember, be reserved for a while, and don't let him think you're not serious! β
"So what should I do? I don't know what to say. Wouldn't that be too embarrassing? β
"Don't worry, I'll leave it to you."
Lu Xiaoguo next to Liu Xuerong finally laughed secretly. looked sly at Liu Xuerong with a sly face.
"Qi Mo, Xiao Rong said that I have something to tell you, so I won't bother!"
After a few people got on the bus, Qi Mo wanted to find a place to stay quietly, but who thought that Lu Xiaoguo said this to Qi Mo.
"Sister Liu, are you looking for me?"
Qi Mo was a little confused. What do these two girls want to do? Liu Xuerong has something to say that she can't say, why do you still let Lu Xiaoguo convey it? Isn't that redundant?
"Sister Liu, are you looking for me?"
Liu Xuerong was already sitting in the window seat at this time, playing with her broken hair a little nervously, and her face was crimson.
Originally, Liu Xuerong's purpose was very strong, she just wanted to have more contact with Qi Mo, so that Qi Mo could feel for her, and the two of them walked together. But Lu Xiaoguo's best friend's words just now made Liu Xuerong confused all of a sudden, and she didn't know what she should do. This makes her neither advance nor retreat.
"Huh? Be... Oh, yes. β
Liu Xuerong's body was already a little stiff. replied to Qi Mo's words very unnaturally.
"That's... What's the matter? β
Although Qi Mo felt strange, he still sat on the seat next to Liu Xuerong, waiting for her reply.
"Qi Mo... Do you have someone you like? ...β
Liu Xuerong really didn't know what to ask, so she asked an extremely brainless question as soon as she came up.
Lu Xiaoguo, who was sitting opposite the two, heard Liu Xuerong ask such a brainless question, and immediately slapped his forehead and fell back on the seat.
"How... Suddenly asked this? β
Qi Mo didn't expect Liu Xuerong to ask such a question, he thought it was a matter of work!
"I'm just asking! You... I don't want to say forget it..."
"It's not that I don't want to say it, it's just that this question was asked quite suddenly."
"Do you have anyone you like?"
Liu Xuerong was still very stupid and naΓ―ve to ask this question, and Lu Xiaoguo, who heard this, was completely stunned.
"I don't have anyone I like yet."
Qi Mo thought for a while and said.
"Oh..."
When Liu Xuerong heard this answer, she was first overjoyed, but then she was disappointed.
"Actually, our company is not against office romances. Instead, employees are encouraged to find their partner as early as possible. You see, we are still going to the Aegean Sea in Greece this time, and we are creating opportunities for single people like us..."
Liu Xuerong half-truthfully explained the company's ideas to Qi Mo. The company is not against it, but it is not encouraged. Liu Xuerong found a suitable reason for herself, and also reminded Qi Mo a little.
"That's right..."
Qi Mo nodded in realization.
"Isn't there anything you want to say to me?"
Looking at this awkward atmosphere, Liu Xuerong was a little anxious. asked Qi Mo, who didn't say a word beside him.
"Sister Liu, I am just an ordinary office worker. Although there is no poor jingle, he is not a person who has a successful career. I don't have a house, a car, no savings, and my emotional intelligence may not be high, so I haven't considered this aspect for the time being. I can see what you mean, I'm not stupid, but I..."
Qi Mo shook his head at the end. Didn't go on. But everyone should be able to understand it.
"Xiaoguo, we're done talking, can you please change seats with me?"
Qi Mo didn't want to be in such an environment anymore, so he took the initiative to say to Lu Xiaoguo on the other side.
"Huh? Well..."
Lu Xiaoguo obviously didn't react, but he still agreed in a daze. Swapped seats with Qi Mo.
"Little Banyan! Why did you ask such a question? Isn't this asking for trouble? β
Lu Xiaoguo saw Qi Mo put on headphones and closed his eyes to recuperate, so he came to Liu Xuerong's side and asked anxiously.
"Xiao Rong, you won't be there, right? Why are you still crying? Wipe it off! β
Liu Xuerong's eyes were red, and tears fell down, and the frightened Lu Xiaoguo hurriedly took out a piece of toilet paper from her bag and handed it to Liu Xuerong.
"He doesn't like me..."
Liu Xuerong bit her lip tightly and cried to Lu Xiaoguo in a choked voice.
"What are you talking about? Actually, I think he's pretty good! If I do talk to you, then I'm worried! At least it shows that he is not a guy who wants to see things! You see that you are so beautiful and have a good figure, he is just an ordinary look, maybe he has low self-esteem! β
Lu Xiaoguo's quirky whisper enlightened Liu Xuerong.
"Nonsense! He doesn't feel inferior! You've never seen him at work! It's handsome! β
Hearing her best friend say that she was a male god with inferiority, Liu Xuerong wiped her tears and defended Qi Mo.
"Eh, I mean, who the hell are you from? I spoke for you, but you blamed me, lick the dog! β
Lu Xiaoguo is so angry. was obviously enlightening her, but in the end she pointed the finger at herself, which made her feel like she was not a human inside and out.
"I do! What's wrong with licking a dog? You also said that others are good. He just... I just didn't think about it..."
Liu Xuerong changed her tragic appearance just now, and looked so reasonable.
"I'm convinced! There is a saying that licks the dog and licks it until there is nothing left! I see, he's your nemesis! Eat you to death! The most infuriating thing is that he doesn't know yet! β
Lu Xiaoguo said angrily, his voice was slightly louder, disturbing Qi Mo with his eyes closed.
"What's wrong?"
Qi Mo turned his head sideways and took off his headphones, looking at Lu Xiaoguo and Liu Xuerong very strangely.
"Ahh All right! We're talking about what to do when we get to Greece! You continue! Go on..."
Lu Xiaoguo didn't let Liu Xuerong speak, but explained it himself.
Qi Mo nodded as if he didn't understand, put on the headphones again, and continued to listen to the sound that had been good the night before.
There was nothing to say all the way, and in about half an hour, the bus arrived at the airport in Fengtian City.
"Qi Mo, what are you going to do when you arrive in Athens?"
All 20 or so people gathered on the side of the bus, ready to collect their boarding passes with their luggage. Liu Xuerong had already cleaned up her state, and asked Qi Mo with a smile again.
"What are you going to do? Isn't it all together? Is it possible to go it alone? β
Qi Mo, who got out of the car, was standing outside smoking a cigarette, never thinking that Liu Xuerong would come forward to talk again. And what he said was something that confused him.
"Acting alone, of course! We're free, right? It's different from other companies! But don't worry, the spending company will pay for it. β
Liu Xuerong explained with some exaggerated alignment to the ink.
"Huh? Going it alone? This..."
Qi Mo suddenly felt as if he had fallen into some trap.
"Don't worry, isn't that still me? I've done a full set of travel guides! Ann! β
Liu Xuerong patted me on the shoulder very domineeringly, looking like two brothers.
"Watch your words and deeds! What a full set..."
Lu Xiaoguo stood aside, looking elsewhere, but in fact, he was pricking up his ears to eavesdrop! After hearing Liu Xuerong's words, he immediately quickly rushed to Liu Xuerong's ear and reminded him.
"You two? ... What to say? β
Qi Mo, who was smoking, looked at the two girls muttering, and his eyes glanced at Qi Mo from time to time, as if they were talking about him.
"Ahaha... Ahem... Didn't say anything, smoking is bad for your health, you smoke less. β
Liu Xuerong coughed twice after smelling the smoke, and then said to Qi Mo in a matter-of-fact manner.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm choking you guys."
Qi Mo was also obedient, and directly pinched the remaining half of the cigarette.
"Let's go, we'll be boarding the plane in a moment."
Liu Xuerong said happily to Qi Mo. She didn't expect Qi Mo to be so obedient, which she didn't expect. I couldn't help but feel a hint of sweetness in my heart.
The ticket hall was crowded, but there were so many people in Paula's company that there was no shortage of people.
Several people quickly arrived at the special lane to get their boarding passes, checked their luggage and went through security checks, and finally stepped into the flight to Athens.
"Sister Liu, did you deliberately arrange for the two of us to sit together?"
After getting on the plane, Qi Mo thought that Liu Xuerong would sit with Lu Xiaoguo, but he never thought that in the end, Liu Xuerong came to his side and sat on the side of the window. This made Qi Mo have to suspect that this was arranged by Liu Xuerong.
"No! How can it be?! It's probably a coincidence..."
Liu Xuerong didn't dare to look at Qi Mo squarely, but pretended to calmly look out the window and explained. It was precisely because she didn't dare to look at Qi Mo, she also didn't see the corners of Qi Mo's mouth rise a little curvature.
With the roar of the aircraft engine, all the employees of the company officially embarked on a five-day and four-night journey to Greece.
"Mr. and Miss, we will provide meals at noon, there are steak pork chops and fish steak sets, which one do you need?"
About two hours after the flight, the flight attendant walked up to me with a smile and asked.
"Hmm... The steak is ready. β
Qi Mo thought for a while and chose the steak set.
"I want a fish fillet."
Liu Xuerong chose the fish steak set.
"Okay. Please wait a while and the meal will be delivered later. β
After a professional smile, the flight attendant walked to the back row of us and continued her work.
"Aren't we going to the Aegean Sea? Why do you still eat fish steak? β
Qi Mo asked Liu Xuerong with a smile.
"Fish is rich in high-quality protein, which is good for the body. Besides, it doesn't take much effort to chew. β
Liu Xuerong said sweetly to Qi Mo. At this time, where does she still have a little bit of vigorous appearance in the company? Totally a sweet little woman.
"That's a pretty professional explanation."
Qi Mo nodded and smiled undeniably.
"That's... Qi Mo... Before in the car... I'm sorry... I may have asked something I shouldn't have asked. β
After a moment of silence, Liu Xuerong suddenly apologized with some embarrassment.
"It's okay, it doesn't matter."
Qi Mo smiled and shook his head, saying that it didn't matter. Once again, there was a dead silence in the atmosphere.
"Listen to what you just said... I don't know what to do when I get to the place... Or you're just... Come with me... I know what's going on..."
Saying this, Liu Xuerong didn't know how much courage she used.
I saw that after she finished speaking, her chest kept rising and falling, and she seemed to be very nervous.
In the past two days, she has memorized the travel strategies of the whole Greece, and it can even be said that she knows it by heart. She knew exactly when and where to play.
"I didn't mean anything else! It's just that you are lonely and lonely, and I don't know what to do, I am your leader, of course I have the obligation to take care of you! β
Seeing Qi Mo's hesitant appearance, Liu Xuerong found a very convincing reason in a hurry.
"That's... All right. β
Qi Mo had already boarded the thief ship. It would be torture to let him wander aimlessly in Greece alone. Although he knew that Liu Xuerong had other meanings.
"Then it's decided!"
Liu Xuerong was so happy. If it wasn't for communicating with Qi Mo in the cabin, but on the phone, it is estimated that he would jump directly with joy!
After lunch, there were snoring sounds in the cabin from time to time.
The long flight made people feel very tired, and after eating, Liu Xuerong fell asleep on the backrest unconsciously.
Qi Mo has been listening to audiobooks, so he seems to be very energetic. Looking at Liu Xuerong falling asleep, he smiled inexplicably.
"Hmm..."
Liu Xuerong, who was sleeping soundly, leaned towards Qi Mo's side, and didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, her head was just on Qi Mo's shoulder. His arms were folded in front of his chest, and his brow was slightly frowned.
The temperature in the cabin is cooler. Because it is almost summer, the cabin will continuously release air conditioning.
"Hello, could you please help me get a blanket."
It happened that a flight attendant passed by Qi Mo at this time, and Qi Mo naturally stopped her.
"Yes sir, you wait a minute."
The stewardess answered, and in less than half a minute, a velvet blanket was delivered.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome sir."
After a brief exchange, Qi Mo gently covered Liu Xuerong with the blanket.
After doing all this, Qi Mo put on his headphones again and listened with his eyes closed.
Lu Xiaoguo, who was sitting on the side, took in this scene, and secretly shook his fist to his good sister with a gossipy look.
The flight time was about fourteen hours, and even if Qi Mo had been listening with his eyes closed, he gradually couldn't resist the sleepiness like a tide, and he fell asleep with headphones on, not knowing which episode he heard.
"Qi Mo, Qi Mo, it's time to eat..."
In the evening, Liu Xuerong shook Qi Mo's body and asked him to wake up and eat.
"Why did you fall asleep..."
Qi Mo, who woke up, stretched his waist, and just wanted to take off the headphones, but suddenly found that there was an extra velvet blanket on his body.
"Just now... You covered me with a blanket? β
Seeing that Qi Mo was awake, Liu Xuerong asked Qi Mo a little shyly.
She had already learned everything Qi Mo had done through Lu Xiaoguo, and now she was just looking for a topic.
"Ah, you were asleep at the time, and the cabin was quite cold, so I got you a blanket."
Qi Mo said naturally.
"You eat first, I didn't wake you up when I ordered the food just now, this is braised pork rice, I don't know if you like to eat it..."
In the end, Liu Xuerong looked at Qi Mo affectionately, waiting for his reply.
"Thank you, I'm not a picky eater. As long as you can eat enough. β
Qi Mo said to Liu Xuerong with a smile. provoked Liu Xuerong's face flushed again.
"Xiao Qi, have you finished the work of extracting cell protein fragments assigned to you?"
At this moment, a familiar voice came from behind Qi Mo and Liu Xuerong.
"Dr. Chen, are you here? It's done, and we can continue working on it when we get back. β
Qi Mo swallowed the food in his mouth and turned back to Dr. Chen.
"Okay. Banyan Xiao, come on! I'm optimistic about you. β
Dr. Chen said this for no reason, and then smiled and hugged his laptop and didn't know what to do.
"What..."
Liu Xuerong looked embarrassed and muttered to herself.
As for Qi Mo, he understands everything, but he can't tell through it.
βββββ
"Ladies and gentlemen, our flight is about to arrive in Athens..."
The long flight was coming to an end, and the loudspeaker in the cabin sounded a pleasant announcement.
"It's finally here... I was sore when I sat down..."
Liu Xuerong stretched lazily after hearing the announcement, and rubbed Qi Mo's shoulder with her arm intentionally or unintentionally.
"Let's find a hotel to put down our luggage in a while, and then go eat something delicious?"
After stretching her waist, Liu Xuerong regained her energetic appearance again, thinking about the next travel time with Qi Mo, and the fatigue of her body disappeared.
"Okay."
Qi Mo nodded in response.
"Alright, now everyone is free to move! Three days later, at 9 o'clock in the morning on the 27th, we gathered at the airport! β
At the exit of the airport, the company's leaders announced to us collectively after seeing that all of us were here.
"Follow me, go buy a plane ticket!"
Liu Xuerong happily pulled Qi Mo's arm
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Walking towards the ticket port, he didn't even look at Lu Xiaoguo. Stampe the deer's feet straight and fruitful.
"What do you buy a plane ticket for? Isn't that the time comes? β
Qi Mo asked Liu Xuerong suspiciously.
"The destination is not here, let's go to Santorini. Oh yes, it's an hour away. β
Liu Xuerong said to me with a sly face.
Stepping on the plane again, as Liu Xuerong said, an hour later, several people finally arrived at Santorini as Liu Xuerong said.
"Let's go, let's go to the hotel!"
Liu Xuerong was like a little sparrow, grabbed Qi Mo's arm and rushed towards the outside of the airport, not caring about her best friend at all.
The exotic cultural atmosphere can be said to be an eye-opener for Qi Mo. This is not worship or admiration. Instead, I suddenly found myself in an environment that I had only seen on a screen, and it felt like everything was so fresh.
Qi Mo's boring mood suddenly brightened, and he seemed to feel that this trip was not in vain.
"Qimo, have you ever heard of the saying "Greece is a place where people can be satisfied"? β
Sitting in the taxi, looking at the scenery outside the window, Liu Xuerong asked Qi Mo in a very calm mood. Just now, Liu Xuerong forcibly pulled Qi Mo closer to the back seat and sat with her, forcing Lu Xiaoguo to the co-pilot.
"I haven't heard of it, but I think I can understand it."
Qi Mo was also looking at the scenery outside the window. Fresh air, ancient Western buildings precipitated by history, soft sunset light. I just want people to retire here.
Relax like never before. It feels like the pace of life doesn't have to be so tight. If you slow down and look at things from a different perspective, you will have a new understanding of life.
"I'm sorry Miss Sir, the road ahead is very congested, and it is recommended that you walk there. It's a short walk. β
It was a bit difficult for the car to drive on the roads of the ancient buildings. The local driver reminded Liu Xuerong kindly.
"Okay."
Liu Xuerong immediately agreed. Then a few people paid for the car and dragged their suitcases, and walked on this quaint road with a history of thousands of years.
"I've seen these buildings on the Internet before, so they're here?"
Qi Mo pointed to the buildings on both sides of the road and said to Liu Xuerong, who was walking beside him.
"This is the town of Oia, one of the most beautiful towns in the world."
Liu Xuerong explained to me.
"It's true! Xiao Rong pulled me to compare all the small towns in the world at that time, and this town can definitely rank among the top three! β
Lu Xiaoguo is really angry. Liu Xuerong didn't talk to her along the way. That's fine. Now she doesn't even look at her as a best friend, and she doesn't even have the qualifications to be a light bulb, which makes her have no sense of existence.
"Oh Xiaoguo, why are you angry? Didn't I compensate you for a lot of masks? β
Liu Xuerong also knew that she might be ignoring Lu Xiaoguo too much, so she smiled and laughed with Lu Xiaoguo.
Qi Mo saw the scene in front of him and laughed unconsciously. I have never seen Liu Xuerong like this in the company.
"Hello, we booked the villa in advance."
Coming to the front desk of the Canvas Oia Epitome Hotel, which was selected in advance, Liu Xuerong said to the front desk attendant.
"Hello, please show your ID and passport..."
"That's an exaggeration, isn't it? How many of us live in a villa? β
When Qi Mo heard the word "villa", he was shocked. This is beyond his reach.
"Oh yes! The company pays for it, and the two of us share it, which is not a lot. Our company is very atmospheric, Lu Xiaoguo is proof of it! β
Liu Xuerong explained with a "you can rest assured" expression.
"How am I going to be proof? Did you pull me in? β
Lu Xiaoguo is not a master who is willing to suffer, so he is not happy immediately.
"Okay, okay, let's get some delicious food and let the housekeeper bring it to us later, can't you give you a double portion?"
Liu Xuerong has no problem with this best friend, so she can only use food to gag her mouth...
"Wow! It's so beautiful!! β
In the single-family villa, the large terrace and heated swimming pool make the two girls scream one after another.
The afterglow of the setting sun and the pale yellow warm lights in the villa make people feel warm and romantic.
Qi Mo put his luggage aside and sat on the milky white sofa in front of him. Looking at the excited looks of the two girls in front of him, Qi Mo felt that he was suddenly much younger. Although he is very young now.
"Sir, this is champagne fruit and snacks, is there anything else you need?"
At the door of the villa, there stood a housekeeper in a straight suit.
"Tonight's menu, let's match four servings."
Liu Xuerong said to the housekeeper.
"Okay. Wait a few moments. β
The butler smiled and nodded, put the champagne on the table and left the villa.
"Don't stop me! I'm going to soak in this pool until it's puffy! β
Lu Xiaoguo can't wait. Immediately pulled his suitcase and ran towards a bedroom.
By the time she came out again, she had already changed into a white bikini, and then jumped into the pool in front of her with a plop.
"What's the hurry? Let's go play after eating! β
Liu Xuerong saw a splash of water on the opposite side, and Lu Xiaoguo kept fluttering in the pool like a fish.
"Let the butler send me here in a moment!"
Lu Xiaoguo was completely happy, and regardless of the fact that there was a male compatriot in front of her who was not very familiar, she started her vacation like this.
"Qi Mo, this place is really beautiful. I decided to wait until I retired to buy a house here. β
Liu Xuerong looked at the sea outside the villa with a look of hope.
"I didn't expect our company's welfare to be so good. I don't know if to buy a house? β
Qi Mo also looked at the rippling sea level in front of him, and said something inconsequential.
"What do you think? Paula is very good to its employees, but it is not good enough to buy a house for its employees. β
Liu Xuerong said to Qi Mo with a smile and a smile.
"Just kidding, if we really buy a house, I guess our company's employees will be messing around every day."
Qi Mo said that, and it was regarded as small talk.
"I'm going to change my clothes first, I have to be worthy of this beautiful view."
Liu Xuerong suddenly said to Qi Mo at this time. Then he grabbed his suitcase and went into the bedroom.
A few minutes later, Liu Xuerong reappeared in the living room, but the reappearance of Liu Xuerong made Qi Mo feel a wave in his heart.
A gorgeous burgundy dress, braided hair is also scattered behind the head at this time, and a pair of retro-style sandals at the feet. The whole person has changed from the previous exotic princess to the current cold queen. Its aura is so powerful that it is daunting. However, the charming smile on her face neutralized that powerful aura, making Qi Mo not feel how uncomfortable it was to stay with her at all.
"How? Isn't it good-looking? β
Liu Xuerong saw Qi Mo looking at her stupidly, and there was a hint of sweetness in her heart. Two blush quickly appeared on her cheeks, adding a little charm to her.
"Good looking. It's really beautiful, I can't imagine you are so low-key in the company. β
Qi Mo's answer is very pertinent, it is completely high-end aesthetics, of course, it is impossible not to have a trace of distractions.
"Sir, Miss, dinner has arrived."
The efficiency of the housekeeper is not to be said. It's only been ten minutes since I've been there, and I've already brought back dinner.
I saw a middle-aged woman who looked like a maid pushing a dining cart and followed the housekeeper, and the two came to the dining table together.
"Today's menu is souvlaki (kebabs, fried gavros, meze, appetizers, and pastichio. and red wines from Bordeaux, France. We're sorry, but our local wine is out of stock. β
The maid brought the dishes to the table, and the butler introduced them to us one by one. When it comes to wine, I apologize to us.
"It's okay, I'm just craving for red wine. Thank you. β
When Liu Xuerong communicates with outsiders, she still looks like she works in the company, and she looks like a professional in the workplace.
"The red wine has been awakened, if you need anything, you can call and I will be on call."
Before leaving, the butler placed a business card on the dining table. Then he left the villa with the maid.
"Xiaoguo! It's time to eat! β
Lu Xiao really did as she said, staying in the pool and not coming out. Liu Xuerong had no choice but to shout at her loudly.
"Get me a copy! I'm here to eat! β
Lu Xiaoguo poked his head out of the pool and responded to Liu Xuerong.
"I really can't help you..."
Liu Xuerong complained, but still picked one of each dish and put it on a plate and sent it to Lu Xiaoguo.
"I thought you were joking! Are you really going to eat here? β
Squatting on the edge of the pool, Liu Xuerong said to Lu Xiaoguo with a crying and laughing expression with a plate in her hand.
"You know what? I don't want to be a light bulb! What a hunting opportunity? What am I mixing with blindness? Do what you have to do, just as if I didn't exist! β
Lu Xiaoguo, who took the food, said to Liu Xuerong with frowns.
"You're so thoughtful! Then I'll wronged you first. β
Liu Xuerong didn't expect Lu Xiaoguo to think so much, and she was a little moved at the moment.
"How are you going to thank me when it's done? Spa or feast? β
Lu Xiaoguo asked triumphantly.
"You said that you are a person, I was just moved by you, and now I am here again, I really convince you! Stay at the pool! β
Liu Xuerong's face turned dark, she didn't expect Lu Xiaoguo to be waiting for her here!
"She's really going to come out of the pool?"
Qi Mo saw Liu Xuerong coming back empty-handed, and asked Liu Xuerong in surprise.
"yes, maybe she thought she was a fish in her last life... Oh, don't care about her, let's eat! β
After that, Liu Xuerong directly took Qi Mo's hand and came to the dining table.
"What is this? I didn't understand what he said just now. β
Sitting down, Qi Mo looked at the colorful food in front of him, and he didn't know how to eat. Only the skewer-like thing in front of him he thought he could eat. So I picked up a bunch.
"The one in your hand is called souvlaki, which can be understood as meat skewers. This one looks like pasta, it's called pastichio, and I don't know the taste, so I haven't eaten it. The meatballs are called meze, and they are called appetizers, or appetizers. We should eat this first. β
Liu Xuerong explained to Qi Mo in detail, and she was very happy to explain these things to Qi Mo.
The two of them poured their goblets full of red wine and began their first meal in Greece.
The sun fades into the sea and is replaced by a starlit night. A full moon hangs high in the sky.
Liu Xuerong, who had finished eating, was sitting on the sofa at this time, with two white feet side by side on the edge of the sofa, holding a glass of red wine in her hand, shaking the liquid inside. Its languid demeanor and movements are fatal to all men.
"It tastes weird, but it's acceptable. Have you eaten enough? If I haven't eaten enough, I'll call the housekeeper again. β
Seeing Qi Mo walking to the sofa, Liu Xuerong asked kindly.
"No, I'm full."
Qi Mo walked to the sofa and sat opposite Liu Xuerong. Looking at Liu Xuerong with a confused expression in front of him, Qi Mo's face was suddenly full of nostalgia.
"It's been a long time since I've been so idle. I didn't feel tired of city life before, but now that I think about it, it's really tiring. β
Liu Xuerong gently took a sip of the red wine in her hand and sighed to herself.
"I've always had a question. You don't seem to be short of money, so why don't you buy your own house and live in a company instead? β
Since Qi Mo met Liu Xuerong, he has always stayed away from her, and has never taken the initiative to talk about personal topics at all. Now that it's so leisurely, you might as well talk.
"How so... It's not that I don't want to buy a house, it's that I don't think it's necessary. β
Liu Xuerong thought for a while and said.
"The living environment in the company is not bad, and I don't have many friends and relatives. As for the parents, they were also gone in the early years. What's the use of buying as many good houses as possible? I'm alone, and I'm scared at night. β
Liu Xuerong said calmly. After speaking, he drank the red wine in the glass.
"I'm sorry, I'm just asking. I didn't expect you..."
Qi Mo felt a little embarrassed, and wanted to chat a few words, but inadvertently touched the softest place in Liu Xuerong's heart.
"It doesn't matter. That's why I haven't been in a relationship with someone who has actively pursued me. Xiaoguo is right, objectively speaking, my appearance and figure are not bad, and there are many men who pursue me. Sometimes I even want to marry someone. β
Speaking of this, Liu Xuerong walked barefoot and slowly walked to the floor-to-ceiling window to look at the quiet sea level.
"I'm twenty-five years old this year, my work is going well, and it's time to talk about marriage. But I just didn't dare. I didn't dare to entrust myself to another person. I couldn't find the feeling I wanted in them, and I felt very insecure. Until..."
Liu Xuerong said at the end, suddenly turned around and looked at Qi Mo with a confused gaze.
"Until mine comes along."
When Qi Mo heard this, he changed his attitude of resisting this feeling, and said what Liu Xuerong didn't have the courage to say.
"That's right! Until you appeared, let me find this feeling! Your first impression on me was dumbfounded, and I didn't think I was handsome, but I just wanted to talk to you and stay with you for some reason! And the feeling is getting stronger and stronger, and even I don't know why. β
Liu Xuerong was inspired by Qi Mo's directness to speak up. said what he might not have said in his life.
After saying this, Liu Xuerong's chest continued to rise and fall. This delicate flower is becoming more and more attractive.
"Xue Rong, you come with me."
Qi Mo completely seemed to be a different person, stood up from the sofa, took Liu Xuerong's hand and said to her.
Liu Xuerong was completely stunned at this time, she never dreamed that Qi Mo would call her Xuerong!
Liu Xuerong forgot to put on her shoes, and walked out of the villa with Qi Mo with blushing blushing with her bare feet.
The two came to the beach, stepped on the soft silver-white sand, and listened to the soft sound of the waves in their ears, just like two lovers.
"Xue Rong, I don't know what your world will eventually become. The universe is infinite, but what happens in each universe is different. But one thing I can say for sure. The Qi Mo you know in this world, he loves you. This is undeniable. In my universe, although I was very resistant to this relationship, I did not dare to face my own heart, so that the final result was bleak. But Qi Mo is Qi Mo, no matter what universe he is in, he is the Qi Mo who likes you and loves you. β
Qi Mo suddenly said something affectionately that Liu Xuerong couldn't understand.
"Although... I don't know what you're talking about, but Qi Mo loves me! I get it! And I can hear that you're not from this world, are you? β
Liu Xuerong is really happy. The words of this person in front of her who seemed to be Qi Mo and not Qi Mo made her very happy!
"Xue Rong, do you want to go to the sky to see the moon?"
Qi Mo suddenly smiled and looked at Liu Xuerong and asked.
"Wouldn't it? Are you! ...β
Liu Xuerong covered her mouth with her other hand in surprise.
"It's cold in the sky."
Qi Mo gently draped his coat over Liu Xuerong, and then gently hugged Liu Xuerong's waist.
"Wow..."
In an instant, a pair of milky white wings of light about three meters long stretched out behind Qi Mo, illuminating the scene within a radius of tens of meters.
"Are you ready?"
Qi Mo looked at Liu Xuerong, who was crying happily in his arms, and asked.
"Small scenes... Ann! β
Liu Xuerong nodded very quickly, and finally rested her head on Qi Mo's chest.
The light wings behind them shook slightly, and the bodies of the two slowly floated in the air, approaching the full moon.
βjesusοΌ I saw God! β
Tourists who were still playing on the beach took out their mobile phones to take pictures of the scene after seeing this scene, recording the images they could not understand.
Over the Aegean Sea, a dazzling light dragged a long tail line freely across the blue sea.
"Huh? It's weird! Where did these two guys go? β......
