Ji Yanli took a shower and sat on the open-air balcony, the rain wetting the white bathrobe.

He lit a cigarette, and in the thick smell of agarwood, he unconsciously turned his head to look through the glass to see the small bulge on the bed.

After the intense affair, his mind was not very clear, and he relied on dopamine mobilization, and his intuition was very dangerous tonight, but when he thought about it, it seemed that he had fallen into the trap she weaved densely from that banquet.

.

In the courtyard of Dongsi Hutong, it doesn't look like there is a restaurant, but there is a private banquet hall hidden in the deepest part of the room.

The gray bricks and stones and wooden wings left over from the Qing Dynasty in the courtyard add a bit of desolation, and with today's heavy snowfall, it is so cold that people panic.

Fortunately, the quiet banquet hall is very well heated, and the flowers and willow green are like being in spring, so it is called "Spring Banquet".

Ji Yan thanked the waiter for adding wine, put a cigarette between his fingers, and loosely pinched the small but delicate glass wine glass, which was covered on the table with the mouth facing down.

Politely refused all toasts, with a casual and tough attitude.

The businessman knows the current affairs, and he also has the capital not to drink, so naturally no one will persuade him.

The little secretary who sat in the corner was not so lucky, the middle-aged man drank too much wine and was not sober, and the muddy words came up with his hands, forcing her to have red eyes.

At the age of just graduating, he came out of the ivory tower of the university campus, and had not yet touched the shallowest darkness in the world.

Ji Yanli extinguished the smoke and maintained a good temper all the way to this point, he was not interested in watching this kind of difficult drama of a strong man, and the words of breaking the siege were already on his lips.

But the sound of knuckles knocking on the wooden door was preempted, followed by a delicate and soft voice.

"I'll come in."

What kind of little girl would speak in such a coquettish tone, the box was quiet for a while, and they all looked at the door.

The first person to enter the door was the lingering fragrance of flowers, Ji Yanli rummaged in his thoughts for a moment, but still didn't remember what kind of flower it was, he raised his eyes and looked over.

The person who came wore the most conservative knitted long skirt, covering from head to tail, only a small ankle leaking at the end of the tail, fair and slender.

The long seaweed-like hair spread out on her back, slowly sweeping her waist as she walked, and she held her waist.

If her body is delicate, then her face is too bright, and a smile is better than the most delicate flowers in this spring feast.

But what is even more dazzling is her haunting temperament, or rather, starlight.

Ji Yanli knew her, when Xingchen had just set foot in the jewelry industry, he invited a young actress to endorse her, Shang Zhi.

Shang Zhi smiled delicately, his eyes just rightly glanced at everyone at the table, and he probably only paused for two more seconds at the moment when he slid past Ji Yanli, and then confessed to the bald middle-aged man who invited her: "The place that Xiao Liu always chose is really hard to find, I am late, and I will punish myself for three cups." ”

She speaks with a natural coquettishness, three points of coquettishness, seven points of seriousness, how can people be willing to be angry.

Mr. Xiao Liu got up to greet her: "Our big stars are busy, it's too late, what's important." ”

He drank a lot, and he never looked down on these plays, when they were arrogant playthings, he shook Shang Zhi's slippery hand while talking, and stroked it as if nothing.

Shang Zhi smiled unabated, he couldn't see the slightest impatience, his hand was dexterously flipped, and he changed to a handshake posture, loosening it naturally, as if this was a courtesy action.

She took a few steps back, took the overflowing white wine glass in front of the little secretary, and said to herself: "Then you still have to be punished, just punish me for a round of wine around the table, you have to give me this face." ”

There were six people at a table, and which one was not amused by her.

Her coffee position is not low, and she is held by a big star like this, who is not useful? When she came over, she had a drink with a pleasant face, which was regarded as giving face.

Shang Zhi held the wine glass in one hand and the wine dispenser in the other, and when he arrived by Ji Yanli's side, he had already drunk three glasses in a row, and his white cheeks were flushed with powder, like a delicious apple in the light.

Seeing the wine glass that Ji Yanli poured on the table, he was stunned for only a second: "Mr. Ji doesn't drink?" ”

Xiao Liu replied for him: "Mr. Ji is famous for not drinking alcohol, and no matter how big the game is, I haven't seen him drink a sip." ”

Shang Zhi nodded, lowered his face slightly and thought for a moment, his face leaking half-truths and half-truths: "The banquet can pay attention to good things in pairs, will it mean bad if I drink a single order." ”

suddenly realized: "Oh, then I'll drink two cups, one cup for Mr. Ji." ”

She filled herself up and drank it all without twisting it, and the others laughed and said that she was angry, and almost clapped her hands.

In fact, it was a bit much, the liquor content was high, and it was too easy to get drunk on an empty stomach, but she didn't dare to leak timidity, so she pretended to be calm and then full.

In between pouring the wine, he quietly opened his mouth and took a small deep breath, secretly adjusting his heartbeat.

Her hand clutching the wine glass trembled slightly, and her fine teeth bit her lower lip, secretly cheering herself up, the last glass.

The glass was light, and when she lifted it to her chin, she closed her eyes, but in an instant she felt a light in her hand, and the warm finger bones brushed against her skin, and she maintained the movement of raising the glass to see the man tilt his head and dry the wine in one go.

Just the glass she had used.

The smooth jawline and the Adam's apple that glides up and down with the swallowing motion clamor shouts about the superiority of his appearance.

As soon as the wine glass of the season banquet was put down, the crowd who had been silent for two seconds broke out into a lot of commotion.

Everyone at the table seemed to have been opened to the second pulse of Ren Du, and those who didn't dare to laugh had to say out loud that he was a "hero and a sad beauty".

Ji Yanli smiled indifferently, his eyebrows were slightly twisted, and he didn't look at Shang Zhi at a glance.

The atmosphere seemed to be lively at this moment, and for the rest of the journey, Shang Zhi sat on the seat, occasionally dealing with a few polite words, and finalized the purpose of his trip while talking and laughing.

She raised her eyes to look at Ji Yanli diagonally opposite, he was always indifferent, as if he had made up his mind to treat himself as a foil, and didn't say a few words.

When I'm bored, I'll turn the underwire watch on my wrist, or throw off my pulley lighter and close it again and again.

Shang Zhi felt that the skin on his hand that had rubbed against him was slightly hot.

She looked quietly, looked bored, picked up a glass of juice on the table, and drank it silently.

As if sensing something, the man's starry eyes shot straight over, colliding with her gaze in the air, so tired that she choked on the juice and coughed.

For the first time tonight, they looked at each other as if no one was around.

Shang Zhi saw a faint and fleeting smile from it, and Ji Yanli took out the taste of calculation.
