Xiao Mengyi hurriedly prepared three dishes and one soup, and the time came to 19 o'clock.

Lin Anjie should be home soon.

She checked the time, sat down on the sofa, and contacted her mother first.

Xiao Mengyi listened to her mother's voice quietly, and responded obediently from time to time. Most of the time it was her mother who was talking. In the final analysis, her mother was too worried about her.

My mother is a person with no temper, and speaks softly to everyone.

In addition, I have been ill in recent years, and it feels like it will disappear at any time. From appearance to breath, I am too weak.

In fact, Xiao Mengyi's personality is not like her mother, but she is very similar to her father when he was young.

Once when I criticized my younger sister, she cried and retorted: "You are just like dad, only not as bad as dad."

It made Xiao Mengyi dumbfounded.

Xiao Mengyi inadvertently looked up and saw the clock on the wall. It was almost 20 o'clock.

She hurriedly said goodbye to her mother and quit the conversation of the three people.

what happened? Why hasn't Lin Anjie come back at this point?

She re-entered WeChat and clicked on the only profile picture in WeChat.

"Anjie, are you off work?"

Apparently, as always, no response was received.

Xiao Mengyi directly clicked on the voice call, "Beep..."

The phone was open, but no one answered. Maybe I’m still working overtime and have a meeting and it’s not convenient to pick me up, so just wait!

Xiao Mengyi picked up the book and started reading.

High-end Japanese private room.

"Why don't you answer the phone?" Zhang Hao stuffed a large piece of salmon into his mouth and asked Lin Anjie, who was sitting opposite him, doubtfully.

Lin Anjie, who didn't use his chopsticks much, picked up the tea cup and took two more sips of tea before putting it down.

He is actually not a fan of Japanese food, but as long as he eats alone with Zhang Hao, he will be dragged to eat Japanese food nine times out of ten.

But he had no objection every time and would stay with him until the end.

Only he knows why Zhang Hao likes to eat Japanese food.

Lin Anjie let his phone ring. He knew without looking at it that Xiao Mengyi could only call at this time.

Seeing that Zhang Hao had almost eaten, he proposed to pay the bill and go home.

Zhang Hao had a smile on his face: "It was Miss Xiao's call just now, right? You pretended to be cool and didn't answer the call, but now you're in a hurry to go back!"

Lin Anjie ignored Zhang Hao's teasing and got into the passenger seat of the luxury car.

They have a meal date after get off work. The two of them are brothers, and Lin Anjie never sits in the back seat.

When he arrived at "Spring", Zhang Hao glanced at Lin Anjie and spoke slowly:

"This Miss Xiao is definitely someone we can live with. Why don't you let down your guard and don't..."

Lin Anjie interrupted Zhang Hao, "Then when will you stop eating those cold Japanese foods?"

After he finished speaking, he ignored Zhang Hao who fell into silence, opened the car door and got out of the car without permission.

As soon as the elevator door opened, Lin Anjie saw Xiao Mengyi walking back and forth in the corridor in front of the elevator with her hands behind her back and her head held down.

Xiao Mengyi also heard the elevator bell, turned around and saw that it was indeed Lin Anjie.

"Anjie, you're back." Xiao Mengyi walked over and took the suit jacket.

Lin Anjie stood in the corridor and looked at Xiao Mengyi from head to toe with an expressionless expression.

Xiao Mengyi was embarrassed by him, and she subconsciously looked at him.

Sleeveless casual shirt + knee-length shorts and slippers.

Although Xiao Mengyi's face was red, she was honest: "I haven't gone out in the past two days and I am quite busy, so I dress casually at home."

"The high ponytail is neatly tidied up." Lin Anjie walked around Xiao Mengyi and entered the house without permission without saying this.

Xiao Mengyi understood what Lin Anjie meant, didn't he mean that she didn't have disheveled hair?

"Alas" Xiao Mengyi sighed secretly in her heart. Even if she wore tattered clothes in her life, she would never be able to keep her hair disheveled.

Xiao Mengyi didn't say much at the dinner table tonight except asking Lin Anjie to eat. Of course, she didn't ask Lin Anjie why he got off work so late.

On the contrary, Lin Anjie was a little uncomfortable, after all, it was already 21: in the evening.

Although he didn't eat much at the Japanese restaurant just now, he at least had something to fill his stomach.

Xiao Mengyike waited until now for dinner.

"If I come back late from now on, you can eat first without waiting." Lin Anjie finished the food in his mouth and paused.

Xiao Mengyi said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. I'm at home. If I'm hungry, I'll find something to fill my stomach first."

"Whatever you want." Lin Anjie frowned naturally, his tone cold.

The two of them finished their dinner quietly.

Xiao Mengyi came out of the kitchen after cleaning up. Not surprisingly, Lin Anjie entered the study again.

She made two cups of tea at the bar and knocked on the study door.

"Anjie, can I talk to you?"

After receiving the signal, Xiao Mengyi walked in.

"What do you want to talk about?" Lin Anjie picked up the tea Xiao Mengyi put in front of him and took a sip. His skills were getting better and better, at least it was not as bitter as before.

Xiao Mengyi sat down on the chair opposite him.

"Can I use the second bedroom?"

Lin Anjie narrowed his eyes slightly and shot Xiao Mengyi coldly, "Want to sleep in separate rooms?"

"Ah?" Xiao Mengyi didn't expect Lin Anjie to think so, "No, no."

"I mean, can you give me the second bedroom as a study?"

Lin Anjie scanned the study room, which was larger than the second bedroom. "Is this study room good?"

"No, it's because sometimes my work schedule is tight and I have to work overtime at night." Xiao Mengyi whispered.

She finally managed to get a part-time job and made so many demands, which made her a little uneasy.

"I will disturb you if I'm still in the study at night."

Lin Anjie looked at the little woman in front of him and felt the need to remind her.

"You said before that you would balance work and family, and taking on a job with a tight schedule like this, do you think it will have any impact?"

"Sorry!" Xiao Mengyi knew that she had broken her promise because she forgot to cook last night.

"This time I took on someone else's unfinished work. I have to rush to keep up."

Lin Anjie put down the teacup, "Is money important?"

"Of course, at least for me." Xiao Mengyi looked directly at Lin Anjie.

In this way, a pair of cold eyes and a pair of firm and flawless eyes stared at each other for a long time.

"can."

"Ah, thank you, Anjie." Xiao Mengyi happily held back her body that almost jumped up from the chair.

"Then can I also move this computer?"

"Of course," Lin Anjie's originally cold voice became even deeper. How could he synchronize it without moving the computer over.

Xiao Mengyi stood up and pointed in the direction of the door, telling Lin Anjie that she would go out first and not disturb Lin Anjie.

"Wait." Lin Anjie called to Xiao Mengyi who had already walked to the door.

Lin Anjie sighed helplessly, "There will be a call from Chicago in the United States at 22:30."

"You might need to answer it."

"Who?" Xiao Mengyi asked curiously. "what can I do?"

"A very important person." Lin Anjie's tone was obviously much softer than before, "You can answer whatever she asks."

"Be careful not to annoy her with too much nonsense," Lin Anjie reminded.

Lin Anjie asked Xiao Mengyi to go out first and come in after twenty minutes.
