Ye Jingchi stood beside the sofa and watched his wife and son engrossed in the game.

Maybe even Ye Jingchi himself didn't realize how gentle his gaze was at this moment.

Finally, the fierce battle seemed to come to an end.

Ruan Ling patted Ye Xu's shoulder vigorously, his eyes were full of approval: "Yes, Brother Xu, another MVP is in hand!" ”

Then he frowned thoughtfully: "Chen Songyang! Did you rob Brother Xu of his five kills? I saw it all! ”

Chen Songyang didn't know what to say in his voice, which made Ruan Ling laugh: "What's the use of you telling me, it depends on whether your brother Xu is willing to forgive you." ”

Ye Xu was also laughing.

Ye Jingchi's expression was a little complicated, he hadn't seen Ye Xu smile so heartily for a long time.

Once Ye Jingchi thought that it was because Ye Xu had grown up, and the boy would always become close to his parents at this age.

At that time, he was also a teenager, and gradually learned to hide his emotions in front of his family.

And at this moment, Ye Jingchi suddenly realized.

Perhaps the real reason is that neither he nor Ye Xu ever met someone like her.

And now they are lucky enough to have her by their side.

……

After laughing for a while, Ruan Ling finally had time to take a look at Ye Jingchi, who had been waiting next to him for a long time.

"I can't do it again." Ruan Ling said in her voice, "It's time to eat, next time." ”

As she spoke, Ruan Ling took off her headphones.

"What time is it?" Ruan Ling asked Ye Jingchi.

Ye Jingchi: "Six-thirty-seven." ”

Ruan Ling: "Then why haven't you gone to the restaurant yet?" ”

Every day at half past six, the servants would prepare dinner on time, and Ruan Ling had never seen them late.

Ye Jingchi's tone was gentle: "I'm waiting for you and Xiao Xu together." ”

Ruan Ling glanced at Ye Xu and stood up: "Then let's go." ”

The three of them went to the restaurant and sat down, and today it was four dishes and one soup.

Ruan Ling took a bite of the egg with satisfaction, and heard Ye Jingchi ask casually, "What game did you and Xiao Xu play with just now?" ”

"Glory in the decisive battle." Ruan Ling replied casually.

Ye Jingchi let out a thoughtful "um".

Ruan Ling looked up at him curiously: "Have you heard?" ”

Ye Jingchi: "No, what type?" ”

"Well, how can I say it...... Ruan Ling bit his chopsticks and thought for a moment, "It's just a competitive game of multiplayer teams, the kind of tower pushing." If you haven't played this type of game before, it might be a bit difficult to explain to you. ”

Ye Jingchi said lightly: "I probably know something, I played something similar a few years ago, but on the computer." ”

Ruan Ling was a little surprised: "A few years ago? When? ”

Ye Jingchi: "University, when I was an undergraduate. ”

Ruan Ling was even more surprised: "Really? This kind of game has been around for decades? ”

Ye Jingchi: "......"

Ye Xu let out a short laugh from the side.

Ruan Ling looked at Ye Jingchi and found that the man seemed to sigh silently.

Ye Jingchi: "

It was more than ten years ago, not decades ago. ”

Ruan Ling blinked: "Oh, it's about the same anyway." ”

Ye Jingchi insisted rarely: "It's a lot worse." ”

"Okay." Ruan Ling clipped himself with chopsticks and vegetables, and changed his words, "I didn't expect you to play this kind of game." ”

Ye Jingchi's tone returned to his previous calm and breezy tone: "Hmm." At that time, several people in the dormitory were playing, and I was with them. ”

Ruan Ling nodded thoughtfully.

She also knows that the more powerful the university, the less nerdy there is, and everyone will have all kinds of hobbies.

But the workaholic image that Ye Jingchi gave her was too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it was still difficult for her to imagine Ye Jingchi playing games with a group of roommates.

Ruan Ling suddenly found that he couldn't imagine what Ye Jingchi looked like when he was in his teens or even early twenties.

She asked with some curiosity, "You play games with your roommates, so your relationship should be very good, right?" ”

Ye Jingchi slowly picked up a shrimp, and said lightly: "Well, we did get along well at that time." ”

Ruan Ling tilted his head: "What about now?" Are you still in touch? ”

Thinking about it carefully, she really didn't seem to have heard of Ye Jingchi's best friends.

Ye Jingchi replied patiently: "There are four people in the dormitory plus me." Two of them went abroad to develop, and now they are about to emigrate, and only send a message to greet them during the New Year's holidays. ”

Ruan Ling: "What about the other one?" ”

Ye Xu next to him also listened attentively.

For so many years, Ye Xu has never heard Ye Jingchi tell the story of his student days.

Ye Xu didn't take the initiative to ask, and Ye Jingchi is not the kind of person who likes to "reminisce about the past" at every turn.

But in fact, deep down, Ye Xu was still very curious.

Ye Jingchi said unhurriedly: "There is another one who returned to his hometown to start a business after graduation, and is now the CEO of a top 500 company in China. It's just that he doesn't develop in Beicheng, and I heard that he has been busy lately, so we haven't seen each other for a while. ”

Ruan Ling captured the hidden message in this passage: "That is to say, your relationship is still good now, and you will still contact from time to time?" ”

Ye Jingchi bowed slightly: "Hmm." Their business overlaps with Ye's, and we occasionally have a meal together to discuss the recent developments. ”

Ruan Ling sighed, picked up the soup and took a sip.

Ye Jingchi smiled: "Drink slowly, be careful of burning." ”

Then he said, "If you don't mind, I'll call you next time we get together." ”

Ruan Ling was slightly stunned.

This is...... Do you want to bring her into his circle of friends?

Ye Jingchi added: "Yun Fan and his wife also have a good relationship. I've heard that his wife, like you, likes to study good food, so maybe you'll get along well. ”

Ruan Ling blinked, thinking about where the word "also" came from.

After a while, she said vaguely: "Let's talk about it then." ”

Ye Jingchi no longer insisted: "Okay." ”

……

After dinner, Ruan Ling rested for a while, remembering the perfume she bought this morning.

She asked the maid to help take a few bottles out and put them out

On the coffee table in the living room.

It just so happened that Ye Xu was also on the first floor, and when he saw Ruan Ling putting out the perfume, his eyes unconsciously drifted over several times.

After setting it up, Ruan Ling beckoned and called Ye Xu over.

"This is the perfume I bought today." Ruan Ling said, "Look at these two bottles, do you like them or not?" ”

In fact, all three of them smell very good, but one of the bottles has the taste of tobacco, which Ruan Ling feels is not suitable for Ye Xu.

Ye Xu walked over slowly, not wanting to be too positive.

Ruan Ling was not in a hurry, and waited for him to come over and sit down, before he asked with a smile: "I'll spray you?" ”

Ye Xu pursed his lips and nodded.

Ruan Ling raised his chin: "Stretch out your left hand." ”

The boy obediently handed over his left wrist.

Ruan Ling sprayed twice on it, and then said, "Right hand." ”

Ye Xu did the same again.

After the two bottles were sprayed, Ruan Ling nodded with satisfaction: "In two minutes, you can smell it, if you like it, these two bottles will be given to you." ”

Ye Xu hesitated for a moment and asked, "What about the rest?" ”

"Huh?" Ruan Lingsi paused, "The rest—"

Before the words fell, Ye Jingchi walked down the stairs.

He was in a bit of a hurry when he left the company, so after dinner, he went to the study to deal with some of the rest of the work before going downstairs.

Seeing the scene in the living room, Ye Jingchi's gaze was slightly condensed.

"What are you doing?" He asked.

Ruan Ling naturally let go of Ye Xu's wrist, turned his head and replied, "I'm trying a perfume for Ye Xu." ”

Ye Jingchi walked over and said seemingly casually: "Why did you suddenly remember to buy perfume for Xiao Xu?" ”

What happened during the day had to be explained thoroughly, and it would take a lot of words.

So Ruan Ling said: "I tried it for Ye Xu once before, and I happened to see it today, so I bought a few more bottles and came back." ”

"That's right." Ruan Ling said, "I also bought it for you by the way, if you have time, come and try it too?" ”

Ye Jingchi: "......"

As the leader of the Ye family, there is an endless stream of people who come to give gifts, and the wording is similar.

"I brought you souvenirs", "I specially selected them for you", "I especially suited you".

In short, it won't be "by the way".

Ye Jingchi walked over: "Okay." ”

Ye Xu glanced at his father, and the corners of his mouth rose imperceptibly.

The perfume was bought because of myself, and it was just given to other people by the way.

Ruan Ling thought for a while, and felt that with Ye Jingchi's temperament, these three perfumes should be able to be controlled.

So she casually drew a circle with her fingers: "If you like these three bottles, take them all." ”

Ye Jingchi was silent for a moment.

"Won't you try it for me?" Ye Jingchi asked.

Ruan Ling didn't speak.

Ye Jingchi's words reminded her of the scene last night in an instant.

Seeing that Ruan Ling didn't answer, Ye Jingchi added: "It's like you helped Xiao Xu just now." ”

Hearing this, Ye Xu's body also froze.

The boy suddenly felt that he shouldn't be here at this moment.

But getting up and leaving now seems to destroy the subtlety between the two

atmosphere.

After a moment of silence, Ruan Ling suddenly spoke: "Don't help." ”

She seemed a little annoyed, and added: "If you don't want it, forget it." ”

She hadn't been on a thief ship once, so she didn't want to do it again.

Unexpectedly, Ye Jingchi suddenly laughed lowly, and his expression seemed to be very happy.

Ruan Ling looked at the man with an inexplicable expression.

Does he have any special preferences, and why is he happier to be rejected?

Finally, Ye Jingchi smiled.

He looked at her and said softly, "I want to." ”

Ruan Ling's heart jumped.

Ye Xu finally found an opportunity and stood up from the sofa: "I'll go back to the room first." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and went upstairs without saying a word.

There were only two people left in the living room, Ye Jingchi and Ruan Ling.

Seeing this, Ruan Ling also stood up: "It's on the coffee table, you can take it if you want." ”

She added, "I still have some business, so I'll go upstairs first." ”

As he ascended the stairs, a man's chuckle seemed to come from behind him.

……

Ruan Ling does have some things that she wants to finish tonight.

The next guest will shoot the day after tomorrow, and she wants to go to the set again tomorrow.

So tonight, Ruan Ling plans to finish the rest of the work.

The photos taken for Su Junruo and Qiao Yue before, only the last two were not finished.

Su Qin's assistant recommended several fabric markets to her, and it was best to determine which one to go to and when to go.

I also have to send a message to the crew and ask if it is inconvenient to go to the set tomorrow.

……

At nine o'clock in the evening, there was movement in the group of the Mandarin Duck Pot Team again.

[Chen Songyang: Have you seen it, a crew is coming to our school to film]

[Chen Songyang: In the grade group just now.]

I sent a notice, saying that if you are interested, you can sign up for the group performance, and you will be paid! ]

[Chen Songyang: Do you want to go?] ]

After having this group, Chen Songyang has become accustomed to sharing in the group whenever there is any trouble.

[Su Junruo: I kind of want to go, I've never seen the crew filming]

[Su Junruo: Will there be a star? ] ]

[Su Junruo: But the notice in the group seems to have written the name of the crew, and it didn't say which actors there were]

[Su Junruo: @乔月, do you want to sign up?] ]

[Qiao Yue: I can do it all.] ]

[Qiao Yue: If you want to go, I can accompany you.] ]

[Su Junruo: Great! Then I'll register us both now! ]

[Chen Songyang: Cut, you girls love to join in the fun]

[Su Junruo: ?? ]

[Su Junruo: Didn't you ask first?] Are you embarrassed? @陈松阳]

[Su Junruo: You don't want to go? ]

[Chen Songyang: General]

[Chen Songyang: If you and Qiao Yue both go, I can think about it]

[Su Junruo: Rolling his eyes.jpg]

[Su Junruo: Then don't come!] It's a puppy! ]

[Chen Songyang: ......]

[Chen Songyang.]

: Auntie, you take care of Su Junruo! She scolded me for being a puppy! @阮龄]

After Ruan Ling finished dealing with the matter, he picked up his mobile phone and saw a bunch of unread messages in the group.

She skimmed through it quickly, then laughed out loud.

[Ruan Ling: What's wrong with the puppy, how cute the puppy is]

[Ruan Ling: I think you are more like a husky @Chen Songyang]

[Chen Songyang: Grievance Baba.jpg]

[Chen Songyang: You all bully me!] ]

[Chen Songyang: Then I won't go, you two can go by yourself!] @苏君若@乔月]

[Ruan Ling: That's right]

[Ruan Ling: I'm going to go to your school tomorrow, I have some things]

[Ruan Ling: Maybe I'll meet you then]

[Chen Songyang: ?!] ]

[Chen Songyang: Then I'll go too!] ]

……

After replying to the messages in the group, Ruan Ling planned to go upstairs and go back to the room to take a shower.

The habit formed in the past month made Ruan Ling almost walk into Ye Jingchi's room again.

Fortunately, she stopped the car at the door in time and turned back to the master bedroom.

She comfortably took a hot bath in the bathroom, and when she came out wrapped in a bath towel, she saw the purple bottle of hair oil again.

Ruan Ling: "......"

It's really terrible, she suspects that for a long time to come, she will think of Ye Jingchi when she sees this bottle of essential oil.

Ruan Ling shook his head and emptied the thoughts about Ye Jingchi from his mind.

Then she paused, hesitated, and picked up the bottle of essential oil.

Speaking of which, she did not take care of her hair in a few days.

Ruan Ling sat on the bed and began to apply it to her hair.

The fresh fragrance of flowers and fruits surrounded her, and Ruan Ling unconsciously emptied her thoughts.

After taking care of her hair, Ruan Ling blew her hair dry again.

After doing all this, it was just a quarter past ten o'clock.

Ruan Ling felt that it was still a little early to go to bed, so after thinking about it, she decided to go downstairs and watch TV for a while.

……

In the living room, Ye Jingchi was sitting alone on the sofa.

At this point in time, Ye Jingchi is usually in the study, or in his own room.

Ruan Ling didn't expect that there was someone in the living room, and halfway down the stairs, he found that Ye Jingchi was also there.

The man looked at the phone, frowning slightly, as if he had encountered something difficult to deal with.

Ruan Ling hesitated slightly, and Ye Jingchi had already looked up.

The two looked at each other, and she asked, "It's so late, why are you here alone?" ”

Ye Jingchi's brows relaxed: "You came just in time." ”

Ruan Ling didn't know what to say: "What? ”

What can Ye Jingchi do that she needs to help solve?

However, doubts are doubts, Ruan Ling still walked over.

After approaching, Ruan Ling casually glanced at Ye Jingchi's mobile phone screen, and then was surprised to find-

On Ye Jingchi's mobile phone screen, it turned out to be the interface of the decisive battle for glory.

Ruan Ling leaned down and took another closer look, confirming that it was the familiar interface.

She said in surprise: "What are you...... Downloaded the game too? ”

Ye Jingchi coughed lightly, and his eyes flickered: "Hmm." ”

Ruan Ling stared at Ye Jingchi for a few seconds as if he was looking at a monster.

She actually read the word "uncomfortable" from the man's face.

It's so unusual.

Of course, the even more strange thing is that Ye Jingchi actually downloaded this game.

Ruan Ling was surprised for a while, and then remembered that Ye Jingchi had called him over.

She straightened up and asked, "What did you ask me to do?" ”

Ye Jingchi had already regained his calm and relaxed appearance, sat on the sofa and asked, "I want to ask, when you and Xiao Xu play together, what position do you usually play?" ”

Ruan Ling blinked.

Ye Jingchi won't be this, and he also wants to join them in opening the black together, right?

Ruan Ling replied truthfully: "These are all me and Ye Xu walking down the road together, and I will assist him." ”

In fact, when she played similar games before, the position she played most often was not a support.

It's just that as Ye Xu's stepmother, Ruan Ling naturally went all the way with Ye Xu.

In addition, Ye Xu's output played very well, so the two of them kept this combination for the time being.

After a pause, Ruan Ling said again: "However, Ye Xu and I, plus a few of his classmates, have just enough five people. ”

The implication is that there is no place for him anymore.

Ye Jingchi said without changing his color: "It's okay. ”

He has said so, so Ruan Ling has nothing to say.

Ruan Ling asked, "Did you just download the game?" ”

Ye Jingchi said "um": "Almost, you tried two before you came." ”

Ruan Ling raised her eyebrows.

Why does she think that Ye Jingchi has been a little too idle recently?

Ruan Ling was a little curious: "I'll take a look at your record." ”

Then he naturally bypassed in front of Ye Jingchi and sat on the empty seat on the sofa.

In order to see the man's mobile phone screen clearly, Ruan Ling almost sat next to him.

The long fluffy hair landed on her side with her movements, inadvertently sliding over Ye Jingchi's fingers.

A few strands of disobedient hair swept across his cheeks, making Ye Jingchi feel a little itchy.

And she didn't notice it, just leaned over to look at his screen single-mindedly.

Ye Jingchi paused for a moment, and the ghost envoy spoke: "Just took a bath?" ”

Ruan Ling was carefully studying Ye Jingchi's mobile phone, and was stunned when she heard this: "What?" ”

Ye Jingchi was silent for a moment and replied, "There is the fragrance of gardenias." ”

Ruan Ling: "......"

That bottle of hair oil is gardenia-scented.

Ruan Ling glared at him.

Speaking of games, why did you pull it to your hair again?

Ye Jingchi smiled lowly: "It's nothing, you keep watching." ”

The two were so close that Ruan Ling could almost feel the vibration in his chest.

After thinking about it, she simply snatched Ye Jingchi's mobile phone and held it in her hand to look at it.

Looking at it, Ruan Ling's eyebrows raised slightly.

Ye Jingchi seems to really know a little.

Although this game does give new players a better start to play, it does give new accounts first

Arrange a few crushing rounds.

But looking at his record, it doesn't look like he hasn't been exposed to this kind of game at all.

Ruan Ling glanced at Ye Jingchi and said matter-of-factly: "I believe now that you did play a similar game when you were young. ”

Ye Jingchi's expression was a little helpless: "You seem to like to remind me that I am not young anymore." ”

Ruan Ling ignored his words.

She still can't imagine what President Ye, who is calm and self-controlled on weekdays, will be like when he plays this kind of game.

Will you also cheer for victory and be annoyed by mistakes?

Ye Jingchi looked at her, and his voice was gentle: "What are you thinking?" ”

Ruan Ling raised his eyes and looked at Ye Jingchi for a few seconds, and suddenly said, "Why don't you come here now, and I'll take a look?" ”

No way, she was too curious.

Ye Jingchi's eyebrows moved slightly: "You're not with me?" ”

Ruan Ling blurted out: "Then I can't concentrate on you." ”

When the words came out, I realized that it seemed that some of them were easy to misunderstand.

Ye Jingchi seemed to be pleased by her words.

The corners of his lips were slightly raised, and even his voice had an obvious smile: "Okay." ”

Ruan Ling watched Ye Jingchi open a game.

She had bad intentions, hoping that the system would match Ye Jingchi with a strong opponent.

Calm and strategic, Ye Jingchi, Ruan Ling has seen too much.

She wanted to spy on another side of him.

However, maybe it's newbie protection, maybe it's the heavens that are working against her.

In short, the opponent Ye Jingchi encountered was not strong, or it seemed a little weak.

Disappointed, Ruan Ling had no choice but to observe Ye Jingchi's expression more closely.

She tried to find something unusual in this handsome, usually expressionless face.

The hard work paid off, and it really made Ruan Ling find some traces.

For example, when Ye Jingchi is extremely focused, the corners of his lips will unconsciously pursed.

Men's lips are already on the thin side, and when they are tightened, they will be closer to a straight line.

Therefore, Ruan Ling could judge his state at the moment by the degree of Ye Jingchi's pursed lips.

Most of the time, men are moving their opponents with weights, so the corners of their lips are completely relaxed, forming a beautiful arc that rises slightly.

But if the situation is not good and requires full attention, then the man's thin lips will be slightly pursed.

This discovery made Ruan Ling feel very interesting, so she stared at Ye Jingchi's lips more intently.

So much so that when Ye Jingchi turned his head to look at him, Ruan Ling was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted.

Ye Jingchi's voice was low, with some imperceptible hoarseness: "What are you looking at?" ”

Ruan Ling's breath stagnated, and she licked her lower lip unconsciously.

"Watching your lips." She looked at him and said truthfully.

Ye Jingchi: "......"

Quiet night, the atmosphere is just the right amount of ambiguity.

The two of them just looked at each other silently.

Ye Jingchi's eyes were focused and deep, as if she was the only existence in this quiet world.

Ruan Ling almost thought that the man was going to kiss him in the next second.

Kiss it, kiss it, she thought.

Anyway, everyone is an adult, and the two are a legal couple.

Everything seems to fall into place.

But after a few seconds, Ye Jingchi staggered his gaze.

His voice was hoarse: "Then you...... What was observed? ”！
