Chapter Ninety-Seven: Compromise
Watching Gu Ning leave, Jiang Chi touched his cheek, revealing a thoughtful expression.
He seemed to know how to improve Gu Ning's favorability.
Because they wanted to help Gu Ning open a show in Italy, both of them stayed temporarily, and Jiang Chi solved domestic affairs through video conference, but because of the time difference between the two places, he often stayed up late, and it was difficult to adjust the time difference for a while.
So when Gu Ning finished his design and looked back, he found that Jiang Chi had lost a lot of weight, and the sharp edge between his eyebrows and eyes was sharp, which was like a sharp sword to persecute people.
After thinking about it for a while, Gu Ning understood the reason for Jiang Chi's emaciation, and a faint guilt rose in her heart, "Mr. Jiang, no matter how delicious Italian food is, it can't compare to rice." Gu Ning rolled up her sleeves and prepared to cook for Jiang Chi with her own hands.
Jiang Chi flipped through the documents, his silver-rimmed glasses were framed on the bridge of his nose, and when he heard this, he took off his glasses, rubbed his temples tiredly and looked up at Jiang Chi, who had already started to prepare, "There is a Chinese restaurant nearby, if you want to eat Chinese food, you can order takeout." ”
Gu Ning shook her head, she regarded this meal as a thank you gift in her heart, how could she order takeout, "The ingredients are all bought, and if you don't use it, it will be wasted." Perhaps because of the completion of the design drawing, the blue and black under her eyes disappeared, her white face looked soft in the light, and the serious appearance of wearing an apron and cutting vegetables was slightly different from the seriousness of the drawing.
The virtuous and feminine looks like the wife Jiang Chi had looked forward to.
Jiang Chi stood up, rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, and naturally picked up the unprocessed potatoes on the side and began to peel and peel them, Gu Ning said in surprise: "Mr. Jiang, I'll just come by myself." ”
"A little help to save you time. Jiang Chi didn't care, his slender fingers grasped the handle of the knife, peeled the scales of the fish that Gu Ning was disgusted with and prepared to be processed at the end, washed the internal organs, and placed it in the porcelain plate.
It's the first time to cook together, but there is an inexplicable tacit understanding between the two.
Soon, a sumptuous lunch was served on the table, Gu Ning said in his heart, fortunately, Jiang Chi just helped deal with the ingredients, if the dishes were all cooked by the other party, then what kind of gift would his meal be.
"I remember you didn't like to cook. Jiang Chi raised his eyebrows in surprise, and picked up a piece of fish full of juice with chopsticks and tasted it, making sure that this meal was not only good-looking, but also very delicious.
"I just don't like cooking, it's not that I can't do it. In his previous life, he was a good wife and mother, and in order to please Tang Yu, he studied many recipes, and when there were servants at home, he cooked by himself.
Gu Ning lowered her eyelashes to cover the cold color that flashed under her eyes.
Three dishes and one soup, the two of them spent more than an hour to solve it, eating familiar hometown meals, not foods such as pasta that are delicious and not the right taste in foreign countries, Jiang Chi's eyes welled up, "Very good." ”
Gu Ning smiled, "If Mr. Jiang likes it, I can cook for you every day." "After the design work is done, only the ready-to-wear needs her to supervise from the side, because this time she is only responsible for the design, and the rest of the people from the free company are in charge, so she is also idle.
"You're my designer, not my personal cook. This proposal was very exciting, but Jiang Chi still refused.
He looked at Gu Ning with a smile, "Aren't you worried about some problems on the show? There are still a few shows in Italy recently, you can go and see them, watch too much, and say that you can't solve the problem in your heart." ”
He picked up a few invitations pressed under the book, handed them to Gu Ning, and saw the light in Gu Ning's eyes suddenly lit up as he wished, "Next time I want to express my gratitude, you can exchange it for a gift." "As shrewd as Jiang Chi, how could he not see Gu Ning cooking for him for what reason.
He nodded his cheek meaningfully, "What do you think of Italian stage plays?"
If you go to watch a stage play together, it's too much like a date! Gu Ning suppressed her excitement and said with a serious face: "I know." ”
Then Jiang Chi received more than a dozen tickets for stage plays, and Jiang Qiu's phone call, "Mr. Jiang also likes to watch stage plays, it's really surprising, there is a stage play I am also interested in recently, I don't know if I can watch it with Mr. Jiang." ”
Jiang Chi was silent for a moment, "I'm also a little surprised. He hung up the phone, regardless of Jiang Qiu's doubts, and redialed Gu Ning's phone, "Forget the tickets for the stage play, what's going on with Jiang Qiu?"
"Because I happened to meet Miss Jiang when I bought a drama ticket. Speaking of this, Gu Ning also had a headache, who knew that she would meet Jiang Qiu when she bought tickets, that theater was actually in the name of Jiang Qiu's family, Jiang Qiu asked her if she wanted to watch it with anyone after buying so many tickets, Gu Ning naturally said that she bought tickets because Jiang always wanted to watch it, who knew that there would be such a trouble.
Gu Ning said apologetically: "I'm sorry Mr. Jiang, I've caused you trouble." ”
The knuckled fingers flexed up, and tapped lightly on the armrest, Jiang Chi said: "Gu Ning, I need a reason to refuse Jiang Qiu, otherwise it would be very rude to refuse a woman's invitation in Italy, you won't let me be rude, right?"
Gu Ning wanted to ask if Italy really had such a custom, but this was the trouble she had inadvertently caused, she paused, looked out the window, the river in Venice was rippling, and the boats selling goods were moving on the water, startling a few water birds.
Gu Ning hesitated for a while or compromised, "Mr. Jiang, what do you need me to do?"
"You accompany me to watch the stage play, with you, I naturally can't agree to Jiang Qiu. Jiang Chi glanced at the drama tickets under his hand, "Well, you have booked a drama ticket for me for seven days in a row, then please buy yourself seven more drama tickets, remember, it must be exactly the same as the one in my hand, don't buy it wrong." ”
Gu Ning said in her heart that she had dug a pit and buried herself again, she listened to Jiang Chi's low laughter on the phone, and said helplessly: "I know Mr. Jiang." ”
The time of the stage play is set for the evening, the theater is on a small island, and you have to take a boat to get there, Jiang Chi looked at Gu Ning who was walking on the shore, "Are you coming to the theater for the first time?"
Gu Ning nodded, hesitated for a second, then took Jiang Chi's outstretched hand and went to the deck.
This boat is very big, but there are only two of them, obviously this boat belongs to Jiang Chi personally, Gu Ning put his hands on the railing, looked at the brightly lit and retro theater in the distance, and the depression in his heart was blown away with the evening breeze.
When the ship was about to open, an uninvited guest boarded the ship. Jiang Qiu pulled the hair from his ears, didn't look at Gu Ning, and only stared at Jiang Chi, "There is a problem with my boat, I don't know if I can rub Mr. Jiang's boat?"
Everyone has already arrived in front of her, Jiang Chi naturally will not refuse, Jiang Qiu's face has a deeper smile, and when she walked past Jiang Chi, she said in a low voice: "Mr. Jiang, Gu Ning, does she understand the stage play?"
