After get off work in the evening, Luo Qi went home again, picked some cucumbers and brought them to Chu Lin. Luo Yu got off work late today, so she went to Luo Yu's company to pick up people.
When she was about to arrive, she sent a voice message to her cousin: [Yu Bao, you can come down now. 】
【immediately. 】
Luo Yu stuffed the tablet into her bag, and as soon as she walked out of the office, Party A's father walked up to her.
Ever since her cousin's official circle of friends announced her boyfriend, she has no face to face Party A's father. Since the cousin doesn't want to fall in love, she can't ignore her feelings and force her to be alone.
At the beginning, she was very active in finding a target for her cousin, and then she aimed at Party A's father. Now he has not yet had a name with his cousin, so he was directly clicked off.
"Mr. He, what's the matter with you?"
He Xu asked back, "What do you think I can do with you?"
Luo Yu laughed: "That's right, I'm talking nonsense, what else can I do besides the project."
He Xu: "Continue to pretend."
"..."
"Draw big cakes for me every day, and you want to introduce me to a girlfriend. Where's your girlfriend?" He Xu asked her to settle the score.
My girlfriend is yellow.
Luo Yu was quick to wit, pointing back at herself, "Here it is. I have always been in love with you secretly, and I dare not say it, so I can only approach you with a little thoughtfulness."
He Xu: "..."
Luo Yu thought, I can't scare you to death.
He Xu didn't expect her to come to this trick. He saw the trick and pushed the boat along the way: "Is it a secret love? Then I will satisfy you. Do you want to stay with me?"
Luo Yu's tongue almost got stuck, "I have Wen Wen, my sister."
"Ask my sister. My sister says it's ok."
She turned sideways, "Mr. He, my sister is here to pick me up, see you tomorrow."
fuck.
She's in trouble.
When He Xu turned around, Luo Yu was gone.
Luo Yu ran all the way to the car, out of breath.
Luo Qi stroked her back, "Why are you in a hurry, and you are not in a hurry. If you don't know, you might think there is a dog chasing you behind you."
Luo Yu: "..."
He Xu is scarier than a dog.
She waved her hand, "It's all right. Sister, you can drive."
As her chest was still heaving, Luo Yu pulled on her seat belt and put it on.
Unexpectedly, He Xu was still a stubborn stubble, and she might not have a good life in the future.
Suddenly thinking of going to see Chu Lin, she patted her head, "I prepared a notebook for Chu Lin to sign for me, but I forgot to take it down."
Before Luo Qi stepped on the gas pedal, "You go upstairs and get it."
"No need. There must be paper in the tavern, as long as you can sign it." Luo Yu didn't dare to go back, worried about meeting He Xu again, and didn't want to face it for the time being.
All the way to the entrance of the tavern, Luo Qi felt that the cousin was wrong today, she was usually chattering, but today it was extraordinarily quiet.
"Work is not going well?"
"No."
Luo Yu laughed and said, "With my perfect tongue, I can handle even the most difficult tasks."
She took her cousin's arm and changed the subject to chat about Chulin.
Several tables on the first floor were already occupied, and Chu Lin was waiting for them on the second floor.
The wine and food were prepared in advance, Chu Lin didn't drink and poured herself a glass of juice.
Luo Qi rubbed Luo Yu's head and introduced it to Chu Lin.
Chu Lin smiled, "We don't need to see each other, just sit down."
Luo Qi put down her bag and went to wash the cucumbers.
Chu Lin thought that Luo Qi was losing weight and had cucumbers for dinner, but she didn't ask any further questions, and chatted with Luo Yu who was sitting opposite: "You two sisters look a bit alike."
Luo Yu said: "Our brothers and sisters all have similar eyebrows and eyes, and they all follow Dad."
Chu Lin seemed to be careless and said: "You still have older brothers?"
Luo Yu nodded, "My uncle's cousin."
Chu Lin: "That must be very handsome."
Speaking of his cousin, Luo Yu looked proud: "Anyway, I don't think many men are as handsome as my brother."
Chu Lin smiled and said nothing, and took a sip of the juice.
After Luo Qi washed the cucumbers, she gave Chu Lin one: "I planted it myself."
"true and false?"
"Otherwise I won't bring it to you."
Chu Lin put down the juice glass and tasted the cucumber.
Psychological effect, I feel that the cucumber is slightly sweet.
Several people chatted about the cucumber stand on the balcony of the rental house. Chu Lin never took the initiative to make friends, except for Luo Qi and Luo Yu. She never liked to be a guest at other people's houses, and today she made an exception.
"If it's convenient, can I go and see your balcony?"
"It's nothing inconvenient." Luo Qi prepared her mentally: "It's an old house with a small place, so don't dislike it."
Chu Lin: "My tavern is not big."
During the chat, they talked about Luo Yuli again, and it was Chu Lin who brought the topic to Luo Yuli.
Luo Yu muttered: "I have to start saving money to buy gifts. I don't know if I will get married at the end of this year or next year. I have to give a big gift."
Chu Lin suddenly pressed her chin and dared not speak, and bit the tip of her tongue.
Luo Qi saw this: "What's wrong?"
Chu Lin blinked, her eyes were red.
She pointed to her mouth, and after a long pause, she squeezed out a smile and said, "I bit my tongue when biting a cucumber, it almost hurt to death."
In fact, the pain is not so painful that the eye sockets are wet, and it is not a child anymore.
Luo Qi felt the pain of biting the tip of her tongue. It was also in the tavern. She bit the tip of her tongue when she gnawed on the lamb chops because she saw the boss eating with her chopsticks.
The scene from that night was awakened again.
Chu Lin thought about Su Cheng, and about that man, he was about to marry someone else.
Luo Qi thought that the boss put water in the punishment rules on the night of the dinner party, did not pour wine for her to let her drink, and finally only respected her alone.
Luo Yu was worried about how Party A's father would embarrass her tomorrow.
The three of them had their own concerns, but they were able to keep chatting magically.
Luo Qi's cell phone rang, and it was the boss's call.
Jiang Shenghe rarely looked for her after get off work, unless there was something important.
She answered immediately, "Mr. Jiang."
"In the tavern?"
"...right."
"Saw your car," he said.
The tone is easy-going, unlike the boss and subordinates.
Luo Qi asked, "Are you going to work overtime?"
"No overtime." Jiang Shenghe said: "Qin Moling and I came over for dinner. Did you bring the cassette?"
"Bring it."
"Then settle the bill at my table when you leave. There is no need to issue an invoice."
"OK."
There was nothing else to say, Luo Qi was about to hang up the phone, Jiang Shenghe asked her again: "Did you drink?"
"Didn't drink."
"Well, I have to go to the hospital after drinking too much."
Jiang Shenghe hung up the phone after speaking.
Luo Qi was in a trance for a few seconds, then felt self-indulgent. If Xiao Jiang cannot drink, the boss will also be concerned and tell him to drink less. The boss is downstairs now, does she want to go down?
I used to run into my boss after get off work and hide as soon as I could.
She didn't think about hiding today.
Just as he was debating whether to go to say hello, Jiang Shenghe's news came in: 【I'm talking to Qin Moling, you don't need to come down here on purpose. 】
Luo Qi and Chu Lin chatted until early in the morning, there were only two tables downstairs, and the boss and Qin Moling left early.
She went to the cashier to check out, and Chu Lin smiled and said that she would give it to an acquaintance, and get a 5% discount. The discount was only given for Luo Qi's sake.
But if Luo Qi comes to eat, it's free.
Luo Qi bought the boss's order. She didn't understand why the boss brought Qin Moling to the tavern for dinner. Chu Lin opened this tavern just to give herself a memory, a place to distract her mind, and never thought of making money, so the dishes Generally, the only delicious thing is the lamb chops, which I ordered from the restaurant next door.
The day to accompany the boss to Jianhang's house for dinner came amidst busy schedules.
It was another Friday, and Luo Qi's dress today was the same as usual. She went there as an assistant and didn't deliberately dress up.
On the way to Jian Hang's house, Luo Qi asked the boss for advice on what to bring.
"I have prepared tea. Jianhang's father likes to drink tea. Then buy a bunch of flowers. Teacher Chen likes flowers."
"Basket or bouquet?"
"You decide."
At the door of the flower shop, Luo Qi went down to buy flowers.
Jiang Shenghe sat in the car and watched her walk into the store through the glass of the car.
If only it was taking her back to his own home.
They came earlier than Qin Moling and Jian Hang, Qin Moling is still in the company at the moment.
Both Chen Yu and Jian Zhongjun are at home, Chen Yu has retired, and Jian Zhongjun is still teaching, a middle school mathematics teacher.
The doorbell rang, and Chen Yu went to open the door, urging her husband, "Jiang Shenghe is here, please put away the test papers and pour them a cup of tea."
Jian Zhongjun brought back the test paper of the last class today to correct, "Jiang Shenghe is not an outsider, nor is it the first time he has come here."
"Then there's his assistant. There's no test paper on the coffee table."
If you can bring it back for dinner, then you are not an outsider.
Jian Zhongjun confiscated it and got up to pour tea.
The door opened, and Jiang Shenghe said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, come to eat."
"It's me, hello Auntie."
"Hello, come in."
Jiang Shenghe said to Luo Qi: "This is what I often tell you about our primary school head teacher, Teacher Chen."
Jian Zhongjun also greeted him.
After exchanging greetings, Chen Yu greeted them to the living room.
Luo Qi likes the layout of Jianhang's house, which is compact and warm, with a row of bookshelves in the living room.
When Chen Yu saw the test papers that covered half of the coffee table, she felt a pain in her head, "Didn't I tell you to put them away."
Jian Zhongjun: "I haven't finished changing it yet."
He turned his head and asked Luo Qi: "Did Xiao Luo help the teacher correct the test papers when she was in school?"
"I corrected it. I was often called by the teacher to the office to correct the test papers, only correcting the objective questions." The distant familiarity of the student days came back.
"Then come and work." Jian Zhongjun gave her a red pen, "You just sit here and correct. Wait, I will find a test paper with perfect marks for you to correct accordingly."
Luo Qi said with a smile, "It's the test paper of the top student."
If you want to adjust the atmosphere, it needs to be a teacher. With a few words, Luo Qi can blend in, without the sense of restraint when she first entered the door.
Chen Yu was originally dissatisfied with her husband for messing up the coffee table, but now she understands her husband's intentions.
"You talk, I'll cook for you."
Jiang Shenghe took the initiative to go to the kitchen to help: "Mr. Chen, I will help you."
"No, none of you can do the work of a cook."
"I don't like changing test papers, so let's chat with you." Jiang Shenghe wanted to learn how to make veiled meat from Teacher Chen.
After entering the kitchen, Jiang Shenghe rolled up his sleeves and took the initiative to tie up his apron, "I'm causing you and Uncle Jian trouble."
Chen Yu joked: "I'm used to it, you and Qin Moling have caused me a lot of trouble when we were young."
Jiang Shenghe laughed, "Teacher, don't expose your mistakes today."
In the living room, Luo Qi began to correct the test papers. She had a good memory, and the answers she had read several times could be memorized in her mind, so she didn't have to refer to the full-score test papers all the time.
Jian Zhongjun asked for a conversation: "Do you still have any impression of these topics?"
"Yes, it's too deep." Let her do this test paper now, maybe she can get a high score, "Uncle Jian, the final exam is coming soon, right?"
Jian Zhongjun said: "The final exam will start next Tuesday. It will be easy when you come next time, and you don't have to help me correct the test paper."
Luo Qi smiled: "This job is not tiring, it's quite fun."
Jian Zhongjun joked: "Jian Hang and Qin Moling haven't come back after lingering, probably because they don't want to help me correct the test papers, and want to be lazy and hide."
During the chat, more than forty test papers were graded.
Luo Qi helped tidy it up, and Jian Zhongjun wanted to go back to the study to count the scores on the computer, "Sit down, Xiao Luo, if you're bored, just turn on the TV and watch."
He pointed to the bookshelf again: "There should be books you like to read on it, if you want to read it, you can find it yourself."
"Okay, Mr. Jane, go and do your work."
Luo Qi didn't casually look through the bookshelves, but took the remote control and turned on the TV to pass the time.
Jian Zhongjun came out of the study, "I have a bad memory, I forgot my phone in the office." He took the car keys and hurried out.
Luo Qi was not in the mood to follow the drama, so she turned down the volume of the TV.
In a strange place, she was alone in the living room, and she turned to look at the kitchen from time to time.
Turning around again, meeting Jiang Shenghe's eyes.
Jiang Shenghe came out of the kitchen and brought a plate of fruit.
Seeing him gave me a feeling of peace of mind.
"Have you finished changing the test paper?"
"Well. Teacher Jian went back to school to get her mobile phone."
Jiang Shenghe gave her the fruit, "I'll wash it for you after eating."
"Thank you, that's enough."
He sat down next to her and took a glass of water to drink.
The boss beside her was both familiar and unfamiliar. This was the other side of the boss she had never seen before. He was no longer repulsive and easy-going to the point of being unreal.
Sitting here bored, she wanted to go to the kitchen but was afraid of disturbing the chat between the teachers and students, so she asked, "Do you want me to help in the kitchen?"
Jiang Shenghe: "No need."
He can help alone, and she doesn't need to get wet.
Luo Qi has never taken the initiative to chat with the boss about things other than work. Today may be the atmosphere is just right, she asked: "Mr. Jiang, do you know how to cook?"
"Won't."
In school, learn a dish for her.
I don't have the talent to cook, so I don't know if I can learn it well.
He stayed with her for a while, and returned to the kitchen after drinking a cup of tea.
Luo Qi was watching TV when Jian Hang came back.
Seeing Jian Hang's cold face, Luo Qi finally understood why Qin Moling was let go by Jian Hang once, and why he was willing to go on a blind date for the second time.
She and Jian Hang hit it off right away, and they stopped chatting.
Jian Hang works in Le Meng, Qin Moling is Le Meng's boss, she is the president of Le Meng's business department, Le Meng is a listed beverage company with a market value of hundreds of billions.
The business department that Jian Hang is in charge of focuses on soft drinks.
Jian Hang asked Luo Qi: "Have you ever drank Le Meng's soda?"
Luo Qi nodded, "I drank it once."
"It's not good to drink, is it?"
"..."
Jian Hang: "The bottle is also ugly."
Luo Qi didn't expect Jian Hang to complain about his company's products without mercy. The two discussed the taste of soda drinks and bottle design, and they also exchanged contact information.
It was almost seven o'clock, Qin Moling and Jian Zhongjun arrived home together.
The food was ready, and they washed their hands and sat down.
Luo Qi sat next to Jian Hang, wanting to stay away from the boss, but there was still space next to her, so Jiang Shenghe sat down.
The dish of venetian meat was brought by Jian Zhongjun just now, he didn't know that Luo Qi liked it, so he put it on the table casually, this dish was the farthest from Luo Qi, so it was inconvenient for her to pick it up.
Chen Yu was talking to Jian Hang, and Jian Zhongjun also looked at his daughter, echoing a few words from time to time.
Jiang Shenghe looked sideways, and asked her in a low voice: "Do you want to eat venetian meat? I'll get it for you."
Enveloped by his aura, and his posture has never been so low, Luo Qi was at a loss, she calmed down: "I will do it myself."
There were no serving chopsticks on the table, and Jiang Shenghe couldn't use the chopsticks he had used to hold. "Give me the chopsticks." He took the chopsticks from her hand and touched his fingertips.
Luo Qi couldn't help shrinking her fingers.
Jiang Shenghe put the venetian meat in her bowl, and returned the chopsticks to her.
Luo Qi took a small bite of the venetian meat, her heart was confused, she didn't know how it tasted.
People who are condescending and condescending are the easiest to confuse people's hearts.
It was raining that night in Sioux City.
The same is true for today's venetian meat.
Qin Moling saw Jiang Shenghe pick up vegetables for Luo Qi, and he also picked up a piece of rolled meat for Jian Hang.
Jian Hang looked at him.
Qin Moling looked at her, "What's wrong?"
Jian Hang said with his mouth: learn from others.
Qin Moling didn't understand: "Huh? What?"
Jian Hang said without changing his face, "Thank you." She stepped on his instep.
Qin Moling was in a good mood, so he clipped another paragraph for her.
During the dinner, Qin Moling toasted Luo Qi: "I will come here often in the future. Your boss restrains himself a lot when you come. I'm sorry to spit on me too much in front of you."
Jian Zhongjun took the words: "Xiao Luo must come here often, someone will help me correct the test papers. You are all lazy, but Xiao Luo is the most diligent."
Talking and laughing, the meal is over.
Jiang Shenghe and Qin Moling were in charge of washing the dishes, while Luo Qi helped put the dishes away in the kitchen.
Jiang Shenghe's apron was not tied properly, and the straps were untied.
Luo Qi reminded him: "Mr. Jiang, your apron is open."
Jiang Shenghe was putting the dishes in the dishwasher, her hands paused slightly, she didn't address you, she was talking about you.
He had greasy hands, so he used this as an excuse to say to Luo Qi, "Tie it up for me." Then he turned his face away as if nothing had happened, and then told Qin Moling about the company.
Luo Qi looked at the apron belt, and was stumped for a while, unable to start.
There was Qin Moling in the kitchen, so it didn't seem like a big deal for him to tie it up, as it was a job assigned to her by the boss.
She picked up the strap of the apron with her fingertips to avoid touching his waist.
The shirt fits tightly between the waist and abdomen, and the muscle lines are faintly visible.
She held her breath for a few seconds, tied it up carefully, and quickly left the kitchen to find Jian Hang, and the two went to the balcony to chat.
Jian Hang held half a bowl of cherries, squeezed one and put it in his mouth, and handed the bowl to Luo Qi, Luo Qi took a few without being polite.
"Is it easy for Jiang Sheng to talk to this boss?" Jian Hang asked.
Luo Qi smiled, "It's hard to talk at work."
Jian Hang said: "Qin Moling is the same. I challenge his bottom line every day."
The wind came in from the balcony, and there was the laughter of children in the small square downstairs, all the thoughts that Luo Qi shouldn't have were blown away.
Before nine o'clock they said goodbye.
Chen Yu sent them downstairs and asked Luo Qi when she would come again, saying that the house hadn't been this lively for a long time.
"Next time I'll give you the fried lotus root box."
Luo Qi didn't know when she would come again, or whether she would come again, it was up to the boss to decide.
When the car drove out of the community, the boss suddenly mentioned the little cucumber and asked her, "Why do you want to grow cucumbers?"
Luo Qi replied seriously: "During that time, I was always distracted by myself, so I planted cucumbers to heal."
Jiang Shenghe asked: "Is the cure effective?"
"not bad."
"I don't know if this method will work for me."
Luo Qi didn't continue the conversation. The boss's emotional problems were beyond her control. Maybe it would cure him, maybe it wouldn't help at all.
There was a few seconds of silence in the carriage.
Jiang Shenghe said: "I'll try your method. It may be hard for you to teach me how to plant it then."
