Chapter 62: Don't embarrass me too much
“……”
A dinner next week's weekend?
Lin Xi's expression was blank for a moment.
Her face was complicated, Qin Yu only thought that she was too troublesome and didn't want to accompany her to attend.
"It's just a formality." Again, he stressed, "It won't take up too much of your time. ”
This kind of occasion is used for socializing in the business district, and there are no outsiders. He usually attends such events, and does not bring a female companion, only an assistant with him.
Unfortunately, his words did not have much of a reassuring effect. The expression on Lin Xi's face did not improve.
After thinking about it for a long time, she said in a slur manner: "I guess it's not good." ”
"Overtime that day?" It's no wonder that Qin Yu can think of this, who made Lin Xi like to use the excuse of overtime to prevaricate him no matter what.
Lin Xi sighed, "It would be nice if I worked overtime." ”
It won't be a dilemma now.
"Huh?" Qin Yu's eyebrows were lowered, this time he really didn't know what she meant.
"Unfortunately, I had an appointment that day."
Lin Xi's relationship network in Beijing is simple and clear, and there is no one she knows that Qin Yu doesn't know.
So almost instantly, Qin Yu guessed who it was.
"Bai Xu?" It seemed to be a question, but his eyes were extremely affirmative.
Lin Xi pretended to be surprised, "It's so easy to guess?" ”
Do a little elimination, and the answer is clear at a glance.
"I said yes to him this afternoon. Third brother, you're a little late. ”
"Next time." Lin Xi gave him enough face, he was not as mean as before, and joked with him: "Didn't I tell you before, my schedule is also very full." Next time, the third brother told me in advance, I will definitely leave time for you. ”
"But this time I can only forget it, first come, first come. It's my brother on both sides, don't make it too difficult for me. ”
Compared with attending this kind of event with Qin Yu, she and Bai Xu were obviously more comfortable.
After all, Qin Yu was the focus as soon as she appeared, and she didn't want to be in the limelight.
Cheng Si and Bai Xu came back after a long while, and the two not only bought her pea yellow, but also some of her favorite foods, and made a dim sum box.
At this time, Lin Xi usually doesn't eat, although she doesn't have body anxiety and doesn't worry about gaining weight, but usually it's so late, she rarely even drinks water.
On the way back, she held the box and finally couldn't resist the temptation, and secretly pinched a piece and put it in her mouth.
Today was supposed to be a heavy day, and with this piece of delicate pea yellow in the mouth, she seemed to ...... It's not so sad either.
——
Autumn in Beijing seems to be just a matter of moments, and there is no transition period at all. It was still summer in the morning, but in the afternoon it suddenly blew and it rained. The temperature changed too quickly, and even though Lin Xi wore a coat every day, he still didn't escape the cold.
Listening to her sneezing three times in five minutes, Chen Gong raised his head from behind the monitor and asked worriedly, "Lin Gong, I feel that you are a little serious." Are you sure you don't have to go to the hospital? ”
"It's nothing important today, so why don't you go check it out. I'm staring at this side. ”
Lin Xi wiped his nose with a tissue, and his nasal voice was very heavy when he opened his mouth: "I have taken medicine since I got up in the morning, and there is nothing wrong with a small cold." ”
"The temperature has been dropping fast lately, so you need to be careful."
"Uh-huh." Lin Xi's body is already thin, and he can't bear it when the season changes, but it is not serious every time, and it is uncomfortable for two days at most.
During the lunch break, Lin Xi slept very deeply because of a cold.
The assistant knocked on the door outside for a long time, but never heard a response.
After waiting at the door for a while, the assistant cautiously pushed the door open. Seeing that Lin Xi was still sleeping, he moved very lightly and put the meeting minutes on her desk. Immediately afterwards, he saw that Lin Xi's computer was not turned off.
The above is the latest test data, which only Lin Xi and Chen Gong have seen.
He stood forward, trying to read the words.
The next second, the screen suddenly went black.
Turning his head, he looked at Lin Xi's cold eyes.
"Uh...... Foresters. ”
He took a step back nervously and explained, "I didn't see anything, I was just curious." ”
"And before I came in, I knocked on the door for a long time, and you didn't hear it when you fell asleep."
He was so frightened that he hastened to explain why.
During this time, he has been found fault with Lin Xi, she is a detail controller, working under her, her nerves are tense every day, and she is tormented.
Lin Xi furrowed his eyebrows, looked away from him, picked up the meeting minutes he sent on the table and flipped through them casually.
The assistant didn't dare to come out, standing aside and waiting for her to fall.
"Let's get out."
"Huh?" The assistant was stunned.
He thought about how Lin Xi would scold him, but the result was ...... That's it?
Lin Xi: "Anything else?" ”
"No, no!" The assistant pointed to the door, "Then I'll go back first." ”
Lin Xi didn't respond, lay back in his original position and continued to rest.
The assistant turned around three times and walked out of the door, still unable to believe that this was true.
Could it be because he was sick and didn't want to waste his combat power?
If this is changed, Lin Xi has to teach him two sentences.
I was really lucky today......
As it turned out, the assistant was right.
Because of the cold, Lin Xi has not been energetic all day, so he took the time to lie on the table and take a nap. When he speaks, he is also weak, and his face is also a little sickly. Basically, when you encounter a problem, you will directly turn a big thing into a small thing.
"Forest worker, do you still have to work overtime today?" Chen Gong packed his backpack and prepared to leave, but found that Lin Xi was still sitting on the chair and showed no signs of leaving.
Lin Xi glanced at the time in the lower right corner of the computer, and responded like waking up from a dream, "If you don't work overtime, I'll go back too." ”
"That's okay, I thought you were sick and still have to work."
Lin Xi stretched, "I'm not going to be unable to get along with myself." Unless Cheng Si gives me overtime pay. ”
Chen Gong smiled and went downstairs with her.
"Forest worker, remember to take your medicine on time, see you tomorrow." Chen Gong beckoned to her.
Lin Xi smiled and nodded, "See you tomorrow." ”
As soon as she walked out of the gate, the oncoming wind directly blew her spirits. Where is the capital city going to autumn, I just want to enter the winter in one step.
Wrapped tightly in her coat, Lin Xi lowered her head and walked out, she didn't want to do anything now, she just wanted to go home and sleep on the bed.
"Lin Xi!" Hearing his name, Lin Xi looked over slowly and half-beaten.
Lu Bei trotted over, and he looked a little uncomfortable when he saw her.
"It's you." Lin Xi sighed, "Is there something wrong with me?" ”
Since dragging him into the blacklist, the two haven't been in touch for a while.
Lin Xi was going to forget about him, but they met again.
"Isn't my aunt going to have a birthday recently, and my mother is out of town, so she asked me to send a gift. But I couldn't get into the courtyard, so I passed by your company today and thought about handing over things to you. ”
Lu Bei handed over the paper bag in his hand, "You can help hand it over." ”
