23 The Art of War

In the early morning of winter, the sky is gray and cold, and the vast park is particularly cold and lonely in this dark white.

The day after the first victory, it was not much different for Li Zhicheng. Before seven o'clock, he arrived at the office as usual.

Seven o'clock sharp.

Sitting on the couch, he looked down at his watch, then looked up and looked into the cubicle outside the door.

Under the bright light, Lin Qian's desk was neat and clear, and the small fresh green plants rested in the corner of the desk.

She hasn't come yet.

Li Zhicheng got up without hurry, walked to the bookshelf, took down the industry magazine, and turned to a certain page. Then he walked back to the couch and spread out the magazines on the coffee table.

Await.

However, at eight o'clock, Lin Qian, who usually had almost a routine with him, had not yet come. Li Zhicheng looked up again, glanced at her seat, then lowered his head and continued to read the information.

It wasn't until the clock bell rang at nine o'clock that I heard the familiar and light one in the crowd of footsteps, and walked into the cubicle. There was a rustling sound, and she took off her coat, sat down, and turned on the computer as usual. Then the phone on her desk rang.

"Hello, President's Office." A sweet, soft voice.

Li Zhicheng, who had been sitting on the sofa in the inner room, raised his head at this time, and through the half-hidden door, he happened to see her side face, fair and clear, and her lips were crimson.

Li Zhicheng's brows raised silently, and he continued to look down at the information.

Listening to the sound and looking at the color, this woman's cold is almost better.

——

Lin Qian hung up the phone, looked at the several reports on the table waiting for Li Zhicheng's instructions, and was silent for a few seconds.

She was late this morning, she deliberately woke up early, but she just didn't want to come. Because I wanted to be alone with him for an hour or two as usual, why did I feel a little uncomfortable?

He was clearly a wolf, perhaps even the most ferocious and tough, but she thought of him as a sheep.

Alas! It seems to rush in and scold him on the head, what kind of mentality is it?

Of course, Lin Qian wouldn't really scold, and even when she picked up the document and walked to his door and tapped it, a professional smile naturally appeared on her face. It's just that at most, she can smile at him so fakely, and she doesn't want to smile at him like she used to.

Hum. When she Lin Qian is who? Although he was justified in doing all this planning, how could he put her in it? Is she an ordinary character with a stunned brain?

Just as he was thinking a little depressed, another opposite thought slipped into his mind - then again, he had laid out such a big and long game, and he didn't deliberately hide his talent from her. She was by his side every day, but she didn't see it at all. Could it be that the number of stages between her and him is really so different...... Go, go, what do you think.

From today onwards, we must be energetic and face the ...... in front of us

Unfathomable man.

She pushed open the door, raised her head, and looked at Li Zhicheng on the sofa.

Sunlight is already emerging from behind the clouds, illuminating the winter interior with orange warmth. He was still dressed in a crisp black suit and a white shirt, and he sat upright. His hands rested lightly on his knees, with a hint of casualness in his silence. Hearing footsteps, he looked up at her, his dark eyes as calm as water.

Lin Qian touched his gaze, and his heart couldn't help but tremble. She immediately scolded herself in her heart: Stupid!

Take a look, take a look! His eyes, his posture, no matter how you look at it, are silently black. How could she have thought he was a quiet big cat in the past! Nima cat and wolf are so far apart, how could she look away!

Although his heart was like a galloping horse, the smile on Lin Qian's face became more and more impeccable. He competently handed him the information in his hand, and said at the same time: "Mr. Li, this is the report submitted by the technical department this morning. This is ......"

Li Zhicheng reached out and took it. The two of them understood each other as they usually worked, she simply said that he looked at it carefully, and at the same time gave a brief reply or instruction, which she wrote down in her soft copy.

During the interval, Lin Qian inadvertently looked up, and saw that he looked down and looked very intently, under the two long black eyebrows, dark eyelashes, and a straight nose bridge, handsome and resolute like a painting.

A thought flashed through Lin Qian's mind last night - she really, never saw him clearly.

Soon, the routine was done. Lin Qian picked up the stack of materials, turned around and was about to leave, and even had a hint of eagerness. Unexpectedly, a clear voice came from behind: "Wait." ”

Lin Qian paused, turned around and looked at him with a smile: "Mr. Li, is there anything else?" ”

The man was looking down at another document, and when he heard this, he patted the sofa next to him with his hand, and said without raising his head, "Sit down." ”

Lin Qian's heart trembled again.

Sit...... Past?

The fiery, strong kiss that day flashed in my mind. The cold, inexplicable breath in the crook of the man's arm seemed to appear in her nose in an instant.

As if sensing her hesitation, he slowly raised his head and looked at her with clear eyes.

"In this authoritative magazine, there is a review of last year's top ten luggage items." His fingers tapped lightly on the long-standing magazine on the table, "There's also a product from Simicki." ”

Lin Qian understood-this is to ask her to go over to the staff officer!

She decided to play dumb directly.

He walked up to him with a calm expression, but when he sat down, he was still subconsciously separated by a foot. Ignoring the burning gaze he had stopped at her face, she picked up the magazine and read it with all her heart.

This looks very familiar. Because of this report, she has seen it elsewhere before. Authoritative magazines evaluated from the five perspectives of "quality, appearance, cost performance, sales, and netizen evaluation", and selected the ten most popular luggage items in 2013.

Seeing this report, it's actually quite shocking. Because the top one to three are all new Baorui products. After that, there was Sim Maggie, and there were others. A bag under the Vinda brand, which is now promoted by AIDA, is also in eighth place. It's just that last year's sales were miserable.

I wonder if Vinda will be in the top few at this time next year?

Thinking so, Lin Qian habitually picked up the report and explained to Li Zhicheng as far as he knew: "Mr. Li, the first place, is a leisure bag of Xinbaorui. As far as I know, this bag has been launched for three years, and the advantages are that it looks stylish, the quality is good, and the price is also advantageous; The second place is a professional outdoor bag from Xinbaorui. There are actually very few companies that do well outdoors in China, and the new Baorui is also a hot seller, but the price is also expensive......"

Halfway through the conversation, I suddenly reacted. What is she doing? And think of him as the boss of the newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers? Since he can easily play with Si Meiqi in the palm of his hand, how can he not know the basic information between these enterprises?

So what did he call her for?

Lin Qian was still talking absentmindedly, and he glanced up from the corner of his eye. I saw him leaning leisurely on the sofa beside her, his long legs still lightly folded. One arm was on the arm of the couch behind her, and the other was on her knee. And she didn't have to look up to feel his gaze, like air everywhere, enveloping her.

Lin Qian's face heated up all of a sudden.

This guy ......

A thought crossed his mind - he was a man with a clear purpose.

Thinking like this, Lin Qian's face became even hotter, and as soon as he hastily put the magazine in his hand, he wanted to hurry away: "Mr. Li, that's all I know." ”

He was silent for a few seconds.

"Your face is red." A low, warm voice was in her ears.

Lin Qian was also silent for a moment, and then looked up at him with a smile: "Well, it may be that the cold is not good." Then I'll sit far away and don't infect you. After saying that, he wanted to get up and dodge the crook of his arm.

As soon as his body moved, his shoulders were already sinking, and his hand came up and pressed her.

Lin Qian's heart jumped suddenly-this time it was really in his arms.

Four-eyed gaze. His handsome face was very close to her, and the hand was still firmly pressed against her shoulder, keeping her still. And in those dark and faint eyes, there was a reflection of her small flustered heart.

No one spoke, and the air in the room burned her face as hot as the temperature of his fingertips. And he just stared at her, his tall, slender body encircling her between the couch and him.

Lin Qian's heart was beating violently. A voice shouted in his head: Why is he like this?! Is there anyone he chases people like this? Silent and strong, is it certain that she will not escape?

The other voice sneered coldly: Lin Qian, are you sure he likes you? He's so deep that he can't reveal a person, you can't even figure out his pounds now. In the future, you are not afraid that you will not be able to eat and walk around?

……

Lin Qian stabilized his mind, looked at him close at hand, and spoke: "Mr. Li, I think this time, Aida is really another village." ”

He looked at her, his eyes seemed to darken.

Lin Qian's heart was beating violently, a little aggrieved, a little inexplicably flustered, and the courage to break the boat. She continued: "Although we have lost Mingsheng, as soon as we turn our heads, Si Meiqi's mid-range luggage market is suddenly open and unobstructed. It seems that God rewards hard work, and God still helps Aida. ”

She said these words calmly, and after she finished speaking, she looked directly at Li Zhicheng.

Li Zhicheng also looked at her, and there was no fluctuation in her dark and beautiful eyes.

The two looked at each other quietly for a moment.

Lin Qian suddenly felt a little ridiculous. What a smart man he is, he must have understood these words. Even if she guessed the truth yesterday, she didn't think to find out to him. But today, somehow, when he pressed her shoulder like this, she felt that she had to find out.

However, although she was entangled, despite remorse, despite impulsiveness, she never expected that Li Zhicheng pressed her without moving, and the first answer was-

"Angry?" He asked softly.

Lin Qian was silent.

He looked at her deeply. He let go of her shoulders and leaned back, temporarily distancing himself from her.

Lin Qian was relieved for a while, but the shoulder that he had pressed seemed to have an indescribable touch remaining. She didn't know what to say, so she just looked at him quietly.

His expression was faint, and he raised his hand to open a book in the upper left corner of the table. Lin Qian saw the cover clearly, and his heart was shocked - it was the book "The Art of War".

I saw him flick his long fingers, pull out a blank piece of paper from it, turn his head to look at her, and put it directly in front of her. Lin Qian's eyes flickered, wasn't it the piece of paper that had the art of war written on it? The strong and powerful handwriting is the same as before: please enter the urn and borrow a knife to kill......

"I never took the initiative to hide it from you." "It's the situation." ”

Lin Qian still didn't say anything.

What is he doing......

Is this an initiative to explain to her?

A treacherous person in the city government is so simply honest with himself?

Hum...... Why did she suddenly want to laugh?

Seeing that she didn't speak, he was silent for a moment, opened "The Art of War" again, took out another folded note from it, and turned his head to look at her again.

"I'll write about three of these things. This is the second one that has already been written. He tucked the note between his long fingers, looked at her with bright eyes, and asked softly, "Do you want to see it?" ”

The author has something to say: I'm sorry, there are too many things during the day on the first day of the new year, and I didn't post it until now.

In the past few days, it may be 9 or 10 o'clock in the evening, so you don't need to brush it in advance. Forgive me~
