Ye Jingchi looked at her quietly, and his Adam's apple rolled a little.
This action seemed to be contagious, and after Ruan Ling saw it, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
Then she saw the man smile.
Ruan Ling was a little annoyed: "What are you laughing at, talking." β
Ye Jingchi finally spoke: "Didn't you say that you want to lend me your hair care oil?" β
His voice was low and slow, as if he was flirting with her.
The content made her stunned.
Ruan Ling's eyebrows raised: "Are you serious?" β
Ye Jingchi asked rhetorically: "Didn't you say that I should take care of my hair?" β
Seeing her raise her eyebrows and look at herself, Ye Jingchi added: "I heard that I want to use it when I have wet hair, I just took a bath." β
Of course, she saw it.
Ruan Ling answered in her heart.
The Ye Jingchi under the water vapor is softer than usual, and it is more irresistible.
Ruan Ling unconsciously stared at the droplets of water that slipped from his neck, and was stunned for a moment.
Then he replied, "Okay, I'll get it for you." β
The maid had just put all her personal belongings in the master bedroom, and the hair oil should be on the bathroom shelf over there.
She was about to go out to get it, but Ye Jingchi was still standing in front of her and didn't move.
Ruan Ling didn't know what to do: "What are you doing blocking the door?" β
Ye Jingchi looked at her: "Do you really want to help me get it?" β
Ruan Ling blinked: "Can I still trick you?" β
Ye Jingchi let out an "um" and finally let the door open.
Ruan Ling walked out of the room and turned around to go to the master bedroom.
When she walked into the bathroom, Ruan Ling paused.
When Ye Jingchi blocked her at the door just now, the feeling of oppression that had not been seen for a long time seemed to appear again.
It's just that it's not the same as when she first met Ye Jingchi, and she can't tell the difference.
After calming down for a few seconds, Ruan Ling looked around and found the bottle of hair oil she usually used.
She took the purple bottle of essential oil and walked back to the room before.
The man was still standing in the room waiting for her, slender and straight.
Ruan Ling handed the bottle over: "Give." β
Ye Jingchi stretched out his hand to take it.
Ruan Ling: "Then I'll go back first." β
Ye Jingchi: "Don't you teach me how to use it?" β
Ruan Ling: "......"
"There's instructions on the back of the bottle." Ruan Ling pointed out sharply, "Both English and Chinese are available. β
Ye Jingchi still looked at her.
He lowered his head slightly, and the wet ends of his hair cast a few shadows on his forehead, blocking his eyes in half.
Inexplicably, Ruan Ling read a sense of vulnerability from this overly good-looking face.
β¦β¦
Ruan Ling closed his eyes and rubbed his temples.
The man in front of him is the person in charge of the Ye family, and countless people are the object of stammering and flattering, and there are probably too many people who are afraid of him.
She's really crazy to use the word "vulnerable" to describe him.
Having said that, when Ruan Ling opened his eyes and looked at him again, he still relented.
She asked, "How do you want me to teach?"
β
Ye Jingchi was silent for a long time, and then spoke: "Why don't you help me?" β
Ruan Ling's eyes widened slightly.
"Ye Jingchi." She pronounced his name word by word, "You're getting an inch." β
Ye Jingchi's face did not change: "I just think that it is more efficient to demonstrate in person than to simply explain." β
Ruan Ling: "......"
Ye Jingchi said slowly: "My hair is not as long as yours, so it shouldn't take too long." β
Ruan Ling didn't speak.
Ye Jingchi: "Is it okay?" β
β¦β¦
After a long silence, Ruan Ling sighed.
"Wipe your hair half-dry first." "You can't drip water," she said. β
Ye Jingchi's eyes lit up with an obvious smile, and he let out a "hmm".
"I'll go get a towel." He said.
Ye Jingchi turned around and walked into the bathroom and came out with a dry towel.
This time, Ye Jingchi didn't continue to move forward, but just wiped his hair unhurriedly in front of her.
Ruan Ling looked at it for two seconds, then turned his back to him directly.
God knows what strange thing has taken over her brain, so much so that the man's action of drying his hair seems to have some kind of special attraction.
Ruan Ling stared at the wallpaper in front of her, and there was a decorative painting on it that she hung with her own hands.
There was a slight grinding sound behind him.
Ye Jingchi's movements should be orderly, just like his usual style, Ruan Ling had never seen him in a hurry.
After discovering that he was actually making up for Ye Jingchi's movements, Ruan Ling spat on himself and turned to look at him again.
Ye Jingchi had finished wiping and was looking at her.
Ruan Ling: "? β
"Why didn't you tell me when you finished wiping?" She asked.
Ye Jingchi's tone was calm: "I'm waiting for you to turn around." β
Ruan Ling stared at him, and always felt that there was a hint of banter hidden in Ye Jingchi's seemingly indifferent eyes.
"Can we start?" Ye Jingchi asked again.
Ruan Ling: "......"
Before she started, she already regretted it.
In fact, with hair as long as Ye Jingchi, there is no need for hair care essential oils at all.
Just because of her casual words, things have somehow developed to this point.
Ruan Ling even suspected that Ye Jingchi was deliberately teasing her, cursing him for being bald in order to retaliate against her.
But there was no way, who made her confused for a while and agreed.
Mistakenly got on the thief ship, and regretted it too late.
Ruan Ling resigned himself to his fate and picked up the purple bottle that Ye Jingchi had placed on the cabinet just now.
Her own hair is so long and thick that she usually has to squeeze several pumps when she uses it.
Ye Jingchi also had a lot of hair, at least so far he didn't see any signs of baldness, and Ruan Ling had just deliberately ridiculed him before.
But it's much shorter than hers, and the longest point is only about a finger and a half.
Therefore, Ruan Ling did not squeeze too much at one time, only pressed a few drops in the palm of his hand and wiped evenly.
Then she raised her chin at the edge of the bed, and unceremoniously instructed Ye Jingchi: "Go and sit there." β
Ye Jingchi sat down and asked her, "That's okay."
Take? β
Ruan Ling: "...... Well. β
She walked directly in front of the man and said, "Lower your head a little." β
Ye Jingchi lowered his head slightly.
Looking at this man who could almost be called well-behaved, Ruan Ling's movements paused.
Then he slowly raised his hands and touched Ye Jingchi's hair.
It's softer than she thought it would be.
Ruan Ling suddenly thought to herself what his reaction would be if she couldn't help but smear a whole pump of essential oil on Ye Jingchi's scalp.
But the thought was only fleeting.
It is said that applying directly to the scalp to clog pores can really cause hair loss.
Ruan Ling was still a little reluctant.
Thinking that there will be one less top handsome guy in this world, and one more man who is bald in his twenties, she still feels a pity.
I'm still too kind, Ruan Ling thought.
After staying for a few seconds, she finally began to rub the tips of Ye Jingchi's hair with her palms.
Ruan Ling is actually a person who has little patience.
She has a lot of hair, so she doesn't take care of her hair every time she takes a shower.
Only when she is in a good mood and has leisure will she think to wipe it.
Fortunately, Ye Jingchi's hair is not long, and even if he applies it very seriously, it won't take much time.
And this is also the first time Ruan Ling has helped others wipe it, and there is some novelty.
It's a bit like combing a doll with a toy comb when she was a kid, and it's a bit like brushing her cat.
So Ruan Ling was very kind and took care of every strand of Ye Jingchi's hair very carefully.
Even, it's a little softer than when she wipes herself.
end
Ruan Ling didn't know if Ye Jingchi was in pain, so he could only rely on his feelings and try not to pull his hair.
But no matter how gentle the movement is, the fingers will inevitably touch places other than the hair.
Towards the end, Ruan Ling accidentally touched Ye Jingchi's scalp again.
The man's body seemed to tremble slightly.
Ruan Ling's movements paused, and her eyebrows moved slightly.
This experience is very novel, as if the man who is usually high up on the top is suddenly under her control.
Ruan Ling couldn't hold back, and pressed the top of Ye Jingchi's head with his fingertips lightly and heavily.
Nothing happened.
Ruan Ling was a little disappointed and decided to end the long two minutes.
In the next second, her wrist was suddenly grasped.
β¦β¦
It seems to have been discovered, Ruan Ling thought.
Ye Jingchi raised his head, and the two looked at each other.
"What are you doing?" His voice was a little hoarse.
Ruan Ling realized that the two of them were so close to each other.
Ye Jingchi had been keeping her head down before, so that she didn't even notice it.
Ruan Ling blinked and said casually: "What's the matter, it pulled your hair?" β
Ye Jingchi just looked at her with a dark expression.
Ruan Ling was a little weak by him.
The wrist was still held in Ye Jingchi's hand, and she tried to break it, but she didn't break it off.
Ruan Ling finally couldn't resist: "You let go of me first." β
Ye Jingchi: "......"
He slowly let go.
Ruan Ling silently took a step back: "It's already good (), just dry it after that." ”
Ye Jingchi still didn't speak.
Ruan Ling's eyebrows moved: "I won't blow it for you." ”
Half-a-half? ()γCome []_ _ see the latest chapter _ full chapterγ (), the man finally spoke slowly: "Okay." β
Ruan Ling: "Then I'll go back?" β
Ye Jingchi let out a "hmm".
β¦β¦
It wasn't until Ruan Ling's figure disappeared outside the door that Ye Jingchi finally withdrew his gaze.
He slowly closed his eyes.
The irregular heartbeat seemed to remind him of how unusual everything that had just happened was.
And he is far from being as comfortable as he expected.
.
The next day, Ruan Ling and Qiao Yue made an appointment to meet at a drink shop.
Ruan Ling directly sorted out the chat records between herself and Su Qin's assistant and sent them to Qiao Yue.
After Qiao Yue finished reading it, Ruan Ling said again: "If you want, I want to buy your design draft, and then find someone to make patterns." β
Qiao Yue was a little apprehensive: "No, Auntie, if you want to use it, just take it directly." I didn't have a design draft, I just drew casually. β
Ruan Ling smiled: "Don't worry, I will ask someone to help with the appraisal and give it to you at the market price." β
Qiao Yue still shook her head: "It's really not, it's okay." β
"That's right." Ruan Ling said, "The reason why I asked you to meet today is that I have some other ideas. β
Qiao Yue was stunned: "What do you think?" β
Ruan Ling: "Actually, this time, I want to try the water first. β
Qiao Yue didn't seem to understand what she meant.
Ruan Ling was not in a hurry, and explained unhurriedly: "To put it simply, I want to personally experience the whole process of turning a design drawing into a physical object, and how much time and money it takes. If it works, then you can consider continuing, and if it doesn't, you can stop there. β
Qiao Yue nodded as if she didn't understand.
Ruan Ling: "Therefore, this time I insisted on buying your manuscript at the market price, also considering that I may continue to cooperate with you in the future." β
Qiao Yue finally understood.
She bit her lip and asked cautiously, "So, Auntie, you mean, if this time is successful, you may buy other manuscripts from me?" β
Ruan Ling smiled and nodded: "Yes, that's what it means." β
Sure enough, she is an honor student, and she can understand it without her explaining too much.
"You don't have to rush to promise me." Ruan Ling said, "You can think about it first." β
There was this idea, it was Su Qin who provided her with ideas, and it just so happened that she saw Qiao Yue's design draft again.
But the studio is just getting on the right track, so she doesn't mean she has to make this dress.
And business cooperation may still be too far away for a student of Qiao Yue's age.
So Ruan Ling was not in a hurry to get Qiao Yue to agree, everyone could think about it slowly.
Qiao Yue suddenly spoke: "I think about it, Auntie, I am willing." β
Nguyen
Ling raised her eyebrows in surprise: "Really? β
"Hmm." Qiao Yue nodded.
Ruan Ling reminded her: "If I really buy out your design draft at the market price, then you can't sell it to others in the future." Moreover, this is also my first attempt, and there is no guarantee of results. Maybe halfway through it, I find that the cost is too high, and I will not do it. β
Qiao Yue said "um": "I understand, even after I sell the design draft to Auntie, the ownership and use rights are not here." β
"Yes." Ruan Ling affirmed, "So you have to think about it." β
Qiao Yue's gaze was very firm: "I thought about it." β
Ruan Ling smiled, admiring the little girl in front of her from the bottom of her heart.
She looks soft and weak, but she is more decisive in making decisions than many adults.
Ruan Ling stretched out her hand: "Then, happy cooperation?" β
Qiao Yue was stunned, shook Ruan Ling's hand a little embarrassed, and smiled shyly: "Happy cooperation, Auntie." β
β¦β¦
The drink shop was near Qiao Yue's home, and Ruan Ling saw Qiao Yue leave and decided to stop by the neighborhood.
It just so happens that she doesn't usually have a chance to come to this neighborhood, so it's better to stroll around until noon, have a meal and then go back.
Ruan Ling came to a shopping mall, glanced around casually, and walked straight into a perfume brand.
She had been interested in this brand of perfume before, but unfortunately it was a niche brand, and there were no counters in the nearby shopping malls.
I didn't expect to meet here.
"This lady." The clerk stepped forward enthusiastically, "What type of perfume would you like to see?" I can recommend it for you. β
Ruan Ling smiled slightly: "I'll just take a look." β
"Of course." The clerk nodded, and said no more.
It's just that when Ruan Ling stopped, he would hand over a piece of incense test paper and briefly introduce it.
When he walked to a certain area, the clerk spoke: "There are usually no men's fragrances in our store, but recently it is the Qixi Festival, so there are several festival-limited men's perfumes, and there are less than ten bottles left in total." If you have a boyfriend, take this opportunity to bring him a bottle. β
As early as when Ruan Ling walked into the store, the clerk had already observed that the lady was not wearing a wedding ring on her hand, so the wording used was "boyfriend".
Ruan Ling's footsteps paused.
Does she have a boyfriend?
Before she could think about it, she heard someone talking not far away.
"Hey, isn't this Mingwei's eldest daughter?"
"Looks like a ......."
Ruan Ling looked over.
The two glanced at each other and conveyed a tacit look.
"Oops." Among them, the woman in yellow was the first to speak, "It's really you, Ruan Ling." I heard Mei'e say that you are married, and I still don't believe it. I didn't expect you to marry earlier than Yingying, why don't you listen to Mei'e and pick more? β
Another person also said, "yes, it was too sudden. Who is the other party? Mei'e hid it and didn't tell us. β
Ruan Ling ignored this series of questions, and only captured one keyword: "Are you friends with Lin Mei'e?" β
Hearing this, the woman in yellow covered her mouth contrivedly: "Hehe, it seems that you still remember us." Of course, we have been friends with Mei'e for more than ten years. β
Ruan Ling asked lightly, "What are you here to buy?" β
The woman in yellow cleared her throat: "Ahem, I heard that this brand of perfume is good, I specially came to pick a gift for our old man." What about you, Ruan Ling, who is also here to buy perfume? You haven't told us yet, which one is your husband? β
Another person also chimed in: "yes, which one?" What for? β
Ruan Ling ignored the two of them anymore, turned to the clerk and said, "Hard, help me wrap up all the men's perfumes in the store." β
After a pause, she emphasized, "All of them." βοΌ
