After asking this question, Zhuli only felt a tightness in her throat.

For a moment, Jing Huaizhi gently raised his lips and smiled.

"What about you, do you like me?"

The room fell silent for a moment, leaving only ambiguous intertwined sounds.

-

"Is that a question that so hard to answer?"

Jing Huaizhi fished the person out of the quilt and brushed her fingertips through the hair that covered her face.

"Don't touch me, I'm tired and sleeping."

She continued to pull the quilt and stuffed her head, with a little imperceptible grievance in her tone.

He bit his lip and glanced at him playfully, rarely letting her go.

Jing Huaizhi straightened up and reached for the cigarette case on the bedside table, knocked out one and lit it.

After that, he continued to lean on the head of the bed and smoked lazily.

It didn't take long for Zhuli to lift the quilt and try to get up.

The man snuffed out the cigarette butt and looked at her with a lazy squint.

"What are you going for?"

"Take a shower!"

She replied somewhat impatiently.

"Otherwise, you can help me!"

Takeri swears, she just said it casually but didn't expect to be taken seriously by him.

bathroom

In the dim light, her eyes became more and more misty.

Through a glass door overflowing with mist, her body can also be seen showing a perfect S-curve.

"That's okay, right?"

The man behind him raised an eyebrow and smiled.

Takeri: "..."

By the time she was carried back to the bed again, she had no strength at all.

Jing Huaizhi was dressed neatly, looking like he was leaving.

Although she covered her head with a quilt, her ears were always aware of the movement outside.

"Are you leaving?"

Zhuli suddenly lifted the quilt and sat up, and his tone was happy.

His face was calm, his legs slightly bent on the bed, and his hands were propped up at her sides.

"You're going to see me off?"

She was immediately silenced, suppressed her ecstatic smile and squeezed out a reluctant expression.

However, Jing Huaizhi had no intention of leaving, and sat back on the edge of the bed after tidying up his clothes.

Jingle Bells-

The phone resting on the bedside table rang.

Zhuli really wanted to get it, but he couldn't use any strength.

Just as she was about to get up with her elbows propped up on the bed, a pair of large hands took the lead in holding the answer button.

She looked at him with wide eyes.

The man bowed slightly, motioning for her to answer.

The screen and the ears touched, and I couldn't help but feel cold.

"Sister."

From the earpiece came the voice of Takesui.

"Hey, what's wrong with Suisui?"

Zhuli immediately became serious.

"Brother, he..."

The Takesui on the other end of the phone bit his lip tightly, and was a little difficult to say about what he was going to say next.

"He's back."

Zhuli was not very surprised by this incident, because Liu Rui had come to look for her with Guan Zheng before going back.

"Did he bully you?"

A hint of horror suddenly welled up in Zhuli's eyes.

Her thoughts were brought back to the words that Liu Rui told her that day.

Takesui's face was full of tears, and he sniffed.

"Well, he..."

"He touched me..."

Even though the words that Takesui said later were very quiet, Takeri still heard it.

A thin layer of sweat broke out on her forehead, and she hurriedly got up and dressed.

"Brute! You can do it to your own sister! Bah! ”

"Where's Xia Yuzhen?"

Zhuli clenched her hands into fists and gritted her teeth.

"I don't know where I've gone, I haven't seen her in a long time."

...

After hanging up the phone, Zhuli was ready to ask Qiao Jue for leave again.

As soon as she clicked on the dialog box with him, she hesitated.

She's taken many days off...

was stunned, and the lit screen prominently displayed 'Caller Qiao Jue'.

Jing Huaizhi clenched his back molars, and his eyes were about to stare at the woman in front of him without blinking.

"Pick it up."

He wasn't emotional.

Takeri withdrew her gaze from him and pressed the answer button.

In just a second, the phone was snatched away.

Jing Huaizhi's brows furrowed slightly, and he clicked on the speakerphone to hold the phone for her.

"Zhuli, are you in the room?"

Qiao Jue's tone was not very calm, as if he was panting heavily.

"I..."

Zhuli just wanted to speak, but happened to meet his eyes, and the words changed.

"I'm not here, I'm eating out."

As soon as the words fell, Jing Huaizhi, who was still standing on the edge of the bed, sat down.

Tiger Mouth pinched her chin and deliberately teased her.

After hearing that she was not in the room, Qiao Jue's heart seemed to fall.

"That's good, I'll look for you where you eat."

Zhuli's shoulder and neck line suddenly straightened, and she said perfunctorily: "I, I've finished eating on the way back." ”

"You don't have to look for me."

Raise your eyes and meet his gaze again.

Jing Huai's eyes moved slightly, and her free hand clasped her waist.

He made a lip shape: "Let him come." ”

Seeing this, Qiao Jue also understood that Zhuli didn't want to see him, so he immediately changed the topic.

"The ticket is booked at one o'clock in the morning, you go to bed first and I'll call you later."

Zhuli's lips opened, and she was about to say that her lips were blocked by the man.

The person on the other side didn't wait for an answer for a long time, and then hung up the phone playfully.

"Returning by Stepping on the Moonlight" is already on the air, and the show party specially arranged a fan meeting for publicity.

Only Qiao Jue and Zhuli from the operation department participated in this work.

Before the live broadcast started, Zhuli called Ren Xingyan in the corridor of the hall.

Because of the project in hand, she couldn't spare time to go back to deal with the matter of Zhu Sui, so she had to ask Ren Xingyan again.

Jing Yuhe, who was not far away, took Jing Huaizhi's arm and said with a look of surprise: "Brother, I'm going to look for pears." ”

"You're busy with your own."

After saying that, she let go of her hand and ran in the direction of Zhuli.

Standing still behind her, he raised his hand and patted her on the shoulder.

Suddenly, he shouted, "Pear! ”

Zhuli was almost frightened by her voice, and reached out and pressed her chest.

"Are you going to send me away?"

Jing Yuhe looked aggrieved and pouted: "Pears, you don't love me anymore, you don't take me on a business trip!" ”

She hooked the corners of her mouth, and she glanced at Jing Huaizhi who was walking in front of her.

smiled awkwardly: "Yuhe, let's go in and talk." ”

"What? Hide when you see me? ”

Jing Huaizhi rarely wore a white shirt with a black suit, and the whole person stood in front of her calmly.

It's like a boss.

Jing Yuhe's eyes half-narrowed, his eyes scanning back and forth from the two of them.

There was an ambiguous smell in the air.

"Brother, you..."

She pointed her index finger at the bamboo pear and began to think.

"What's wrong with us?"

"We're normal."

Zhuli snatched the initiative back and replied casually.

With Zhuli's words, she was even more sure of what she was thinking.

"Do you owe my brother money?"

Jing Yuhe blinked his eyes and innocently threw out the question.

Jing Huaizhi pushed down his gold-rimmed glasses, stood in place with his pockets in his pocket, and said in a joking tone: "It's not just money that you owe." ”

Zhuli kept shouting in his heart: Amitabha Buddha begs you not to talk nonsense.

"What else?"

"Brother, tell me."
