unexpected rain

The next day, Xiang Shifang woke up on Lin Ji's bed, instinctively flicked his hand to the side, and when it was empty, Lin Ji got up at some point.

Xiang Shifang rubbed his eyes and sat up, this place was like a gentle town, if Lin Ji was still there, he would probably be able to sleep again.

After he put on his clothes, the phone on the table rang, and he took it to see that it was Xiang Qiuyue.

"Hello, Mom." Xiang Shifang picked it up.

"I guess you are already sitting in the office at this time." Xiang Qiuyue said.

"..." Xiang Shifang rubbed his hair, "I just got up."

"Is today a rest day?"

"I'll give myself half a day off." Xiang Shifang replied, "Is it night over there now? Haven't you rested yet?"

"Can't sleep." Xiang Qiuyue sighed, because early this morning, I received a very rude and disturbing call from my ex-husband. "

Xiang Shifang frowned.

"He complained to me all the time, saying that I educated my son to be unreasonable, indifferent, and low-sighted." Xiang Qiuyue said slowly, "He also said that you took care of a male student, and that you are still in public. It's indecent to hug and hug on occasion."

Xiang Shifang pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "Don't answer his calls from now on."

"Although Cheng Pingyi is very disappointing, he did affect me. If I don't get your response today, I probably won't be able to sleep tonight." Xiang Qiuyue said, "Did you really adopt a male student?"

Xiang Shifang said helplessly: "First of all, I didn't take care of him, and secondly, he is not a student at all."

"According to Cheng Pingyi's description, not only is he a student, but he's also poor in appearance, and he also failed in plastic surgery..."

Xiang Shifang couldn't bear it anymore and said, "He's presbyopic!"

"So, what's the real situation?"

"He's fine, he looks very comfortable, and he's not poor. His face is just allergic to catkins."

"...is he really a man?"

"..."

Xiang Qiuyue sighed slowly, and said, "I never knew you liked men."

"I didn't know before." Xiang Shifang muttered, "It was only after I met him that I realized that I can also be interested in men..."

"Are you dating?"

"...Currently." Xiang Shifang said.

Xiang Qiuyue was silent, and said after a long time: "This should be the first time you dated a man, and I don't know if your attitude is serious, but it seems to be different from any of your girlfriends before. Shifang, are you planning to marry him?"

"Of course not." Xiang Shifang replied without thinking, like answering that one plus one equals two is a matter of course, but after saying it, he immediately felt the extreme discomfort that came back from the bottom of his heart.

Xiang Qiuyue seemed relieved, she said: "Parixi contacted me last week, and she complained to me that you never returned her calls."

Xiang Shifang lowered his eyes, "She seems to have forgotten about the time difference, the time of calling is always embarrassing."

"Shifang, I remember you promised Perishi that you would be engaged to her." Xiangqiuyue said in a low voice, "If Xiangshi and Perishi's family marry, it will indeed bring a lot of benefits... But I I still hope that you can put your own happiness first."

"I have a sense of proportion." Xiang Shifang said lightly.

After saying a few more words, Xiang Shifang told her to go to bed quickly, and hung up the phone.

After the Lin couple came in, seeing him get up, they smiled and said, "I cooked raw porridge, come and eat."

Xiang Shifang sat on the bed and stretched out his hand to Lin Ji.After Lin grasped and was stretched, he straddled Xiang Shifang's lap.

Lin Ji: "Huh?"

Xiang Shifang put his arm around Lin Ji's waist and looked up at him.Lin Ji's face improved a lot. After he fell asleep last night, Xiang Shifang applied medicine for him again. Today, there are only two small red spots left on his cheeks, which are funny.

"What's wrong?" Lin Ji laughed, and Little Red Spot became cute.

"It's nothing." Xiang Shifang said, he hugged Lin Ji, put his face against Lin Ji's chest, and listened to his heartbeat.

He was in a gentle town, but he felt his blood cool down.

If the day came when he had to, he would break up with Lin Ji without hesitation.

Cheng Pingyi said last night that Xiang Shifang looks like himself

...perhaps he was right.

Last year, the jewelry exhibition jointly organized by Hua Fuyuan and Qingfa Bank was held in Hongshi at the end of this month. Lin, as the general manager, naturally had to go.

Hongshi, located in the south, ushered in the summer temperature in the spring season.

The jewelry exhibition was held indoors. This exhibition invited wealthy and famous people in the industry, as well as high-v customers of a brand, and models to walk the show.What Lin needs to do is to introduce Hua Fuyuan's leading products and announce the release time of new products.Facing the gazes of countless celebrities and the densely packed microphones, Lin maintained his demeanor and spoke with eloquence. His words made people feel comfortable, his articulation was very clear, but he did not pronounce it bluntly. Even if he said official words, he could Make people subconsciously listen carefully.

With a flash of light, the picture of Lin Ji wearing a well-tailored suit, slender waist and long legs smiling gracefully at the camera was frozen and will be printed in the next day's business newspaper.

In the evening, China Guangfa Bank held a small banquet in a seaside villa.The open-air balcony extends from the villa, looking at the boundless sea in the distance, just like standing on the sea.

The sea breeze blew away the early heat, Lin closed his eyes, feeling the comfort of every strand of hair being blown by the sea breeze.

Although the purpose of this banquet is to give the participating partners a chance to relax and communicate, but these people came here to discuss business.However, since Lin came to Hongshi, the second important thing was to talk about the joint credit card with China Guangfa Bank. There is no need to deal with other entertainment.

Feeling dizzy after the sea breeze blows for a long time, Lin Ji went back indoors, sat on a relatively remote sofa, and took out his mobile phone.The official account of China Guangfa Bank has already pushed the news of today's exhibition, Kai Lin saw his photo at one o'clock, and while shy, he admired it silently for a while, and then shared it with Xiang Shifang with a shy face.

Then a shadow fell on him, accompanied by the sweet smell of biscuits and cream.

Lin Ji raised his head, and standing in front of him was a fair and slightly chubby woman in a white chef's uniform, holding a plate of delicate cookies in her hand, looking at Lin Ji in surprise.

Lin Ji also looked at her, this face... seemed familiar.

"You are... Lin Ji?" she asked.

"Yes." Lin Ji guessed that she should be the chef responsible for the desserts at the banquet.

"It's really you!" She said incredulously, "I thought it was just a duplicate name... By the way, do you remember me? I am..."

"Qi Huan?" Lin Ji said.

The female chef was so surprised that she almost couldn't hold the tray, "Do you remember?!"

"Hmm." Lin Ji said with a smile, "You are not much different from when you were in high school."

"No way, I'm twenty catties fatter than that time!" Although Qi Huan said this, he felt very good in his heart. "Wait for me!" Qi Huan walked quickly to the long table, put the cookie on it, and took a piece of mousse and handed it to Lin Ji, "Try this, I made it."

"Thank you." Lin Ji took it over, made room for Qi Huan, and motioned her to sit down.

Qi Huan sat beside him.

"It's delicious." Lin Ji said after taking a sip. The cream has a delicate taste, like slightly bitter matcha, but it is full of fragrance.

"This is the signboard of our store!" Qi Huan said with some pride, and then said: "Lin Ji, you have really changed a lot."

"That's what everyone says." Lin Ji said, "After so long, I didn't expect you to still remember me."

"Hey, it's not because I did so many stupid things to you in the past." Qi Huan was a little embarrassed, "I still feel embarrassed when I think about it now. At that time, I was so self-conscious."

"You mean, asking me to give Xiang Shifang a gift?" Lin Ji was curious.

"Ah, don't mention it! I'm going to feel ashamed!" Qi Huan covered his face.

"It's been so long." Lin Ji smiled, "Do you still like Xiang Shifang?"

"That's a long history." Qi Huan waved his hand, "I used to think that I would be that heroine, and I could have a thunderous love with the school girl, but the reality is that I am a For an ordinary girl, living an ordinary life is the truth."

"But you can make delicious mousse." Lin Ji said to her, "You should be a sweet girl."

Qi Huan stared at him with rounded eyes, and when Lin Ji showed a puzzled expression, she held her chest and looked knocked down, "I should have chased you back then!"

Lin Ji laughed and said "I dare not be that".

Qi Huan said again: "Oh, let's forget it, you and Xiang Shifang, a successful jewelry tycoon, and a rich man with a beautiful woman are not something that ordinary citizens like me can afford."

Qi Huan didn't pay attention, Lin Ji's expression became stiff, and he asked: "What do you mean by saying that the beautiful woman from Shifang is by your side?"

"Yesterday I saw it on Yuji. It said that the president of Xiangshi Group and the daughter of the executive president of Le Mier Entertainment Company were on a date, and they even took pictures." Qi Huan said, took out his phone and searched , Showing it to Lin Ji, "Here, is it him?"

The main characters in the photo on the phone are a man and a woman. The woman has curly brown hair, three-dimensional and exquisite facial features, and a bright and pretty expression. She looks at another person, her eyes full of sweetness.

As for the other person, Lin Ji could recognize who he was even just by looking at his hands.

But at this time his hand was held by someone else.

Lin forced himself not to look at it, but he couldn't move his eyes away.

Xiang Shifang told him that he was going on a business trip to the United States for a week, and Lin had no doubts. Even yesterday morning, this man stubbornly asked himself to read a story to him, saying that he couldn't sleep due to jet lag.

But let him see such a picture.

Qi Huan also said happily: "They are very good, right? A child born of two top genes will be against the sky..."

Lin slowly closed his eyes, and said, "Qi Huan, I made an appointment with someone else, and now it's over, let's talk next time."

"Oh, okay... Lin Ji, your complexion is not very good, are you okay?"

"……fine."

Since Lin lied, he came to the bathroom.

With trembling hands, he picked up the phone and dialed Xiang Shifang's number.

Beep...beep...beep...

"Hello?"

Lin Ji's heart was tightly clenched, and the blood flowed backward at this moment——

It's a woman's voice!
