Chapter 13: Will You Answer My Phone?
The sky was overcast and frightening, and the lights on the top floor of the Xie headquarters were shining.
Xie Zhengyu looked at the large snowflakes outside the window thoughtfully, and the pen in his hand kept tapping on the table to make a rhythmic sound.
"Knock knock~"
"Enter."
He didn't move, just raised his eyes slightly to look at the comer.
"Mr. Xie."
"Did you notice anything wrong when you gave Jowen something?"
Wang Zining carefully recalled yesterday's situation: "No. She hesitated: "Is there something wrong?" β
Xie Zhengyu shook his head and then diverted the topic: "How was yesterday's blind date?" β
"It's fine." Wang Zining replied quickly.
But Xie Zhengyu was a little surprised, in the past, Wang Zining went out on a blind date and came back with a wry smile, but this time he had a different answer: "Ready to continue contact?" β
Wang Zining smiled: "Well, there is this preparation." β
"Are you going to say goodbye to the past?"
Wang Zining suddenly lost his smile, and then lowered his head and looked at his toes: "It's going to pass." Raising her head again, she had already changed to a relieved smile: "You know, there is no possibility between me and him." β
Xie Zhengyu has never judged other people's feelings, even if Wang Zining was cultivated by him: "It's good to think about it yourself." β
Although he didn't say much, he knew in his heart that Chen Ke was going to suffer.
"That's right." As soon as Wang Zining opened the door, he remembered something: "Qiao Wen asked for my contact information, I think she wants to know your itinerary." β
Wang Zining has been around Xie Zhengyu and Chen Ke for many years, and she can understand the deep meaning of ordinary people's every move, so she knew the intention as soon as Qiao Wen opened her mouth yesterday.
Xie Zhengyu didn't speak, just looked at Wang Zining.
"I gave it to her."
Xie Zhengyu nodded, and Wang Zining walked out of the office.
He always felt that there were too many secrets in Qiao Wen, and this secret now seemed to contain his own. Xie Zhengyu didn't know what Qiao Wen was going to do, but he was not in a hurry, he was waiting for Qiao Wen to take the initiative.
On the other side, Qiao Wen, who passed the interview, walked out of the hotel very happily.
She took out her mobile phone and reported the good news to her friend Lin Lin as soon as possible, and after hanging up the phone, she opened WeChat and looked at Wang Zining's avatar and hesitated for a long time.
Jowen took a deep breath and pressed the voice call.
"Jowen." The call was quickly connected.
"Sister Zining, I want to ask Xie, is Brother Zhengyu in the company?" No matter how many times, she still feels that the title of 'Brother Zhengyu' is very awkward.
Wang Zining looked at Xie Zhengyu's office: "Of course." β
Qiao Wen, who got an affirmative answer, was overjoyed: "Then is he busy?" β
"Your call was timely, he just finished busy."
"That," Jowen paused slightly, "Can you tell me his phone number?" β
Wang Zining was stunned, she didn't expect Qiao Wen to have no contact information for Xie Zhengyu: "Of course you can, I'll send it to you." β
Wang Zining's fingers hesitated when she sent the phone number, but soon she sent a long list of numbers to Qiao Wen.
Qiao Wen looked at the long list of numbers and dialed it without any hesitation.
The phone rang for a long time, and while it was waiting, Jovin's heart beating with the unanswered 'beep'. This is the first time I have called Xie Zhengyu, and I will be a little nervous for no reason. But gradually, Qiao Wen calmed down, and the unanswered phone call made her a little disappointed.
As soon as the phone was taken away, a familiar voice came from inside my ear.
"Hey."
That's when the man's voice came through the earpiece.
"Hey!" Qiao Wen immediately put the phone back to his ear: "It's me, Qiao Wen." β
Xie Zhengyu frowned: "Who gave you this phone number?" β
Qiao Wen thought he was in trouble: "I'm sorry, I was looking for someone to find out." β
Xie Zhengyu didn't speak, but looked at Wang Zining who was sitting outside through the glass, and at this time, Wang Zining also smiled back at himself.
"I'm looking for you for something, do you have time at noon?" Qiao Wen continued.
Xie Zhengyu retracted his gaze and looked at Daxue: "Have you had lunch?" β
"Huh?" Qiao Wen didn't expect Xie Zhengyu to divert the topic: "No.. No. β
"Where are you?"
Qiao Wen looked around, and he had unconsciously walked to the vicinity of Xie's headquarters: "I'm near the shopping mall on the west side of your company. β
"Okay, wait for me in the mall."
Xie Zhengyu hung up the phone, picked up his coat and prepared to go out.
"I'll contact Xiao Du..."Wang Zining saw Xie Zhengyu go out, and immediately dialed the phone number in the office.
"No, I'll do it myself."
Xie Zhengyu came quickly, he drove directly to the underground parking lot of the mall, and asked Qiao Wen to come here to look for him.
Soon Qiao Wen found Xie Zhengyu's car, she didn't expect him to drive by himself, and after a little surprise, Qiao Wen got into the passenger seat.
"Where are we going?"
Xie Zhengyu didn't speak, and drove the car out of the mall directly and went straight to the private kitchen.
Along the way, Qiao Wen didn't dare to speak again, and looked straight ahead intently, thinking about how to open his mouth for a while to let Xie Zhengyu help him.
Qiao Wen's state lasted until the two of them sat in the restaurant, and Xie Zhengyu took a sip of hot tea: "What? Are you going to keep talking like this? β
Qiao Wen suddenly came back to his senses: "I'm sorry. β
Xie Zhengyu was a little dazed by Qiao Wen's sudden apology: "What? β
"I'm sorry." Qiao Wen's tone was sincere: "I asked for your phone number without your consent." You must know that Sister Zining gave it to me, right, but this matter has nothing to do with her, it's me ......"
Xie Zhengyu chuckled, he really didn't know what this little girl was thinking about every day, and he didn't know what he had just done that would make her have such an illusion.
Qiao Wen didn't know what Xie Zhengyu was laughing at, and she didn't know if she wanted to continue what she hadn't said just now, she just watched Xie Zhengyu take out her mobile phone from her arms and fiddle with it.
Immediately, his mobile phone rang, and it was an unfamiliar number.
She was just about to press it when the phone rang abruptly.
"Save it."
Qiao Wen looked at Xie Zhengyu puzzled.
"This is my private number, Zining gave you my work number, and I won't answer unfamiliar numbers." Xie Zhengyu rarely explained: "So I didn't get angry because she gave you my phone number. β
"It turned out .. That's right. β
Qiao Wen secretly breathed a sigh of relief and silently saved Xie Zhengyu's number.
"So, what's the matter with me today?"
Qiao Wen put down his phone: "I want to ask you to do me a favor." β
Xie Zhengyu narrowed her eyes slightly, is she going to say?
"I, I found a part-time job in a media company on the weekend, and I may not be able to fulfill my promise to Aunt Luo to go back to accompany her on the weekend. If she knew that I had a part-time job, she wouldn't have agreed, so I wanted you to help me tell her that you helped me find this part-time job, okay? Qiao Wen still didn't choose to confess to Xie Zhengyu, although she was calm on her face, she was already flustered in her heart.
Xie Zhengyu was a little disappointed, he didn't hear what he wanted to hear.
After eating a slice of sashimi slowly, he said, "If I'm not mistaken, Professor Chen has already helped you find a part-time job, and you should be subsidized." β
Qiao Wen's hands on his lap were slightly cold: "Yes, but I haven't forgotten that I can continue to go to school because I borrowed your money." β
"You don't have to ......"
"Yes, I'm an anxious person, and I will be uncomfortable if I owe money." This is the first time Qiao Wen interrupted Xie Zhengyu's words, she is telling the truth, she doesn't like to owe money to others, not only his but also online loans.
Xie Zhengyu carefully observed Qiao Wen's expression, trying to see the flaw, but he only saw the resoluteness on Qiao Wen's face.
"Which company?" Xie Zhengyu took a step back.
Qiao Wen was stunned, she didn't expect Xie Zhengyu to agree so quickly, and the words of persuasion she had prepared were all useless: "Yichen Media." "This is the company where Lin Lin works part-time.
Xie Zhengyu thought for a while, but did not search for the name of this company in his mind: "Are you sure there is this company?" β
Qiao Wen smiled: "It's a very small company, but the treatment is very good." β
Xie Zhengyu nodded, and then heard Qiao Wen say: "Can you not check this company, I just want to work like an ordinary classmate without burden." β
Xie Zhengyu completely put down his chopsticks, and he looked at Qiao Wen playfully with his hands clasped around his chest: "What are you afraid of?" β
"What?"
"The last time I was beaten, and this part-time job. You don't even want me to check, what are you afraid of Qiao Wen? β
Qiao Wen didn't expect Xie Zhengyu to ask like this, she looked at the man's sharp eyes with a little weakness. In a matter of seconds, she was defeated, not daring to look at him again.
"No, I'm not afraid of anything, it's just that I want to leave some space for myself." Jowen knew that her words were weak, but she didn't know how to explain anything else.
Xie Zhengyu lowered his eyes, picked up his chopsticks again and gave a piece of Arctic shellfish to Qiao Wen: "You have to remember that you are not alone now, you have to rely on everything, and you don't have to retreat from everything." β
Qiao Wen didn't speak, picked up the pair of chopsticks that he had never touched, picked up the fat Arctic shellfish and put it in his mouth. She didn't dip any of the sauce, but she still found the Arctic shellfish to be deliciously sweet.
By the time the two of them finished eating and went out, the snow had stopped and the sky had cleared.
"Back to school?"
"Hmm."
Xie Zhengyu started the car, Xu was afraid that it would be too embarrassing, Qiao Wen took the initiative to reach out and turn on the radio.
βThen I met you. When I met you,I knew this was it I've never been in lovelike thisβ¦β¦β
Qiao Wen's face flushed, and such an ambiguous song echoed infinitely in such a small space.
She looked at Xie Zhengyu cautiously, and did not find the man's abnormality, so she quickly turned her face away, for fear of being caught by him.
During this period, Wu Qingwan called twice, Xie Zhengyu turned a deaf ear, and Qiao Wen endured it for a long time: "Don't you answer?" β
"It's okay."
"Is it because you're with me for fear that she will misunderstand?" Qiao Wen didn't know why she was asking, maybe she was tempting, she didn't know.
After the question was asked, the car also stopped in front of the school.
"What are you thinking?" Xie Zhengyu suddenly replied, which caught Qiao Wen off guard.
"No, no." She hurriedly opened the car door: "Thank you, I'm here." β
"Jowen."
Xie Zhengyu wanted to go down the window and shouted to Qiao Wen.
Qiao Wen didn't dare to look back, only heard the voice behind him: "You can call me directly in the future, without going through others." β
She knew that he was talking about Wang Zining.
Qiao Wen turned his head: "Then, will you take it?" β
The sunlight poured down instantly, sprinkled on Qiao Wen's face, a cold little face was radiant in the sun, and for a moment, Xie Zhengyu lost his mind, almost subconsciously speaking...
"Yes!"
