Chapter 4: To each according to his needs
The moment Cheng Yi appeared, Tan Bo bore the brunt and pulled out the salute in his hand.
The words "Happy Birthday" were shouted in everyone's mouths, which directly pushed the atmosphere to a climax.
Xinan pushed the cake cart and walked towards Cheng Yi step by step, and then said word by word: "Brother Yi, happy birthday." ”
She was a little shy and timid, but she didn't want to wait any longer.
Xinan raised her head to Cheng Yi's eyes, her voice was clear and clean, and she didn't look sticky at all, "Brother Yi, I like you, can you be with me?"
Her eyes were very determined, and Xinan clearly knew that she would never be as brave as she was now.
As soon as these words came out, the whole box exploded with a "boom", and everyone was coaxing, shouting "together, together." ”
But the young man was not moved, and he was not forced by the pressure of everyone to agree to her confession.
"I'm sorry, I don't like you." Although it is only a few words, it is heart-wrenching.
Cheng Yi left without looking back, and she hadn't even stepped into the box, Xinan couldn't slow down when she stood in place for a long time, and finally Tan Bo sent her home.
Since then, Xinan and Cheng Yi have never been in contact again, and a few months later, Cheng Yi went abroad.
And this parting is five years.
"From today onwards, you move to live with me." Cheng Yi's voice had a commanding tone, which made people unmistakable.
Xinan listened, and frowned: "That Xi family ......"
"I've always been a man of my word."
Xinan knows Cheng Yi's character too well, as long as he has promised something, he will definitely do it.
Cheng Yi lives in the northern suburbs of Luming Academy, which is the top luxury residence in Beijing, surrounded by first-class educational resources, this house is Cheng Yi's parents gave him his eighteenth birthday gift, although now he has a lot of real estate under his name, but basically live here, and now the house price here is estimated to be hundreds of millions of yuan.
The car slowly stopped at the door of the villa, Xinan looked up at the extravagant villa, and paused for a moment, this is not the first time she has been here.
She also lived here for a few days when she was in high school.
At that time, Cheng Yi had just finished the college entrance examination, and she, Tan Bo and a few friends who had a good time often came here to find Cheng Yi to play.
Sometimes it's late to play and just stay here.
At that time, their relationship was so good, she even clearly remembered the young man leaning on the sofa, his legs folded, watching TV, listening to music, holding a game console in one hand, leisurely and comfortable.
"What are you doing outside?" Cheng Yi put one hand in his pocket and urged impatiently.
"Oh." Xinan followed him and slowly walked into the villa.
The villa is also very luxuriously decorated, with light color as the base, gray neutral, brown as an embellishment, the marble stone lines laid on the ground are concise and low-key luxury, with the gray and white carpet looks simple and elegant, and the owner's temperament and character are very compatible.
Xinan took a shallow look at the villa, and it was exactly the same as it was at the beginning, and even the position of the vase had not changed.
"I have already asked Ye Rui to move your things to the master bedroom, and from today onwards, you will be responsible for all my food, clothing, housing and transportation." His tone was official as if he was talking about some kind of cooperation: "Your mobile phone must be turned on for twenty hours, and you are not allowed to get too close to other men, if you let me know which male star you have an affair with, you will bear the consequences." ”
Xinan doesn't feel like he's getting married, he's selling himself.
But think about it, isn't the marriage of the two of them a transaction? Just take what you need.
Cheng Yi stepped on the stairs, as if he suddenly remembered something, and suddenly turned to Xinan and said, "By the way, I don't like to make my private life public. ”
"Got it." Xinan opened his mouth and replied, isn't it just a hidden marriage, this is also very good, and there is a lot less unnecessary trouble.
—
In the next few days, Xinan didn't see Cheng Yi again, and she didn't receive any news about him.
Recently, in order to let her figure out the script well, Ding Lan pushed all her business activities, so she stayed in the villa almost every day.
Because Cheng Yi doesn't like strangers to move around at home, although he is very rich, he has always only hired part-time workers and has no home-based nannies.
So this huge villa, now there is only one person in Xinan.
She was thinking about whether to make a call to care about Cheng Yi, when the phone rang.
"Nannan, I'm Dad."
Xinan's eyebrows flickered: "Is there something wrong?" ”
"It's nothing important, I just want to call and ask how you and Ah Yi are getting along, he's good to you, right?" Xi Kanglei asked.
Xinan's voice paused: "He...... He's been nice to me. ”
"That's good, I'm relieved to know that you're happy."
Xinan just wanted to hang up the phone, but after hesitating, he still asked, "Dad, Tianyi ....... now"
"Tianyi now has the support of the Cheng family, and the situation is much better, and it won't be long before the situation can stabilize." Xi Kanglei has put too much effort into Tianyi over the years, and now he is very happy to see it slowly getting better.
"That's good." Cheng Yi did it and pulled a company that was on the verge of bankruptcy back from the edge of the cliff.
"You have time to thank Ah Yi for me."
"I will."
How can we thank him?
Cheng Yi lacks nothing, and it feels too monotonous to send things.
After thinking about it, Xinan finally decided to cook dinner for Cheng Yi.
Today is Cheng Yikai's third meeting, and the company's veterans have been arguing for two hours over a port project.
He was too lazy to listen again, lowered his head and began to look at his phone, and suddenly, Xinan sent a WeChat message.
Xinan: Are you coming back tonight?
Cheng Yi stared at the message on his phone for a while, and then said hello back.
Xinan: I made sweet and sour tenderloin, steamed eggs with clams, and spicy chicken offal...... Are you coming back?
Cheng Yi silently hooked the corners of his mouth, and replied by typing: "I'll get off work at eight o'clock." ”
The people in the conference room looked at each other, and no one knew whose news their boss was replying to, but they actually showed such an expression, you must know that Cheng Yi has always been indifferent and rigorous in the company.
Xinan looked at the sumptuous dinner on the table with satisfaction, glanced at the time, and Cheng Yi was about to get off work in a few minutes.
Cheng Yi's stomach is notoriously tricky, and he used to be very particular about eating when he was in school, and he didn't know if this dish would suit his taste.
Xinan went to the kitchen to get a bottle of red wine, which was recommended to her by the shopping guide, and she didn't know much about red wine.
Suddenly, there was the sound of unlocking at the door.
Isn't there still a few minutes left before he gets off work, how can he come back so early.
Cheng Yi took off his coat, changed into a pair of slippers, and walked straight to the living room, when he saw the fragrant food on the table, he raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, "You did all this?" ”
Xinan nodded and let out a soft "um".
"Wash your hands and get ready to eat." Xinan brings the hot last dish to the table.
At the dinner table, seeing Cheng Yi pick up chopsticks, slowly pick up a dish and put it to his mouth, Xinan couldn't help but ask, "Is it delicious?" ”
Looking at Xinan's eyes shining with starlight, Cheng Yi was stunned for a moment, and then replied unhurriedly: "It's not bad." ”
Being able to get his words was already a high evaluation, and Xinan finally put her mind at ease, she was afraid that he wouldn't like it.
Xinan was very happy in her heart, and took the initiative to help Cheng Yi take a bowl of chicken soup.
"Thank you." Halfway through the meal, Xinan suddenly murmured.
Cheng Yi bit his hand in chicken soup and paused, "You don't have to thank me, we just take what we need, you have to know that I am a businessman and do not trade at a loss." ”
As soon as this sentence was spoken, the atmosphere instantly froze.
"Oh." After that, Xinan ate silently and did not speak again.
After eating, Cheng Yi put down the chopsticks slowly and slowly, and commanded lightly: "Wash the dishes after eating." ”
"I didn't see you say thank you for making such a big table of delicious food, and let me wash the dishes, what a white-eyed wolf." Xinan Novel muttered.
"What did you say?" Cheng Yi's eyes narrowed, and his voice was a little colder.
"I said I got it." Xinan hurriedly changed his tune.
Cheng Yi nodded, turned around and walked upstairs.
By the time Xinan cleaned up the kitchen and went upstairs, Cheng Yi was already asleep.
After receiving the certificate for so many days, this is the first time she has shared a bed with Cheng Yi.
After staring at his good-looking sleeping face for a while, Xinan turned around and went to the bathroom to take a hot shower, and spent an afternoon in the kitchen, with the smell of oil smoke all over his body.
After taking a bath, Xinan carefully touched the bed, for fear of waking up the people around him.
When she was about to fall asleep, a pair of strong and warm hands suddenly wrapped around her and encircled her whole person.
Cheng Yimeng turned over and shrouded her under him, his eyes flashing with a scorching light.
His movements were no longer as rude as before, and in the back, Xinan even took the initiative to hook his neck.
