Chapter 14

Although the development plan was leaked, fortunately, Lu Jingyao discovered it in time and adjusted his strategy, so the company's operation was not affected.Since the establishment of the Lu Group, it has been developing the tourism industry, and now it can be regarded as a big business. While gaining a foothold in the tourism industry, Lu Jingyao wondered whether it could open up some new industries for the company.

For example, the real estate industry.

For this plan, Lu Jingyao aimed at the old urban area in the suburbs. It just so happened that the government was preparing to bid for that piece of land recently, and it had been confirmed as a commercial land. Therefore, Lu Jingyao was going to win the development right of this piece of land for the company's new development. The industry earns its first pot of gold.

As the company's first foray into the real estate industry, Lu Jingyao was extremely cautious and checked everything personally. Through the efforts of him and the bidding department, the company successfully won the land.

After the successful bidding, the next thing to do is to plan how to develop it. Although Lu Jingyao already has a general idea in mind, the specific implementation still requires the use of a professional design institute.After a company meeting, everyone unanimously decided to let the most well-known Tianyuan Architectural Design Company in City A contract the preliminary planning of this project.

So Lu Jingyao and Ji Xiuran stopped by to visit Tianyuan Architectural Design Company. The other party promised to come up with two or three sets of plans within a month for selection. Ji Xiuran worked with the other party's lawyer to draw up the contract. Lu Jingyao and the person in charge of the other company Signed, formally set the cooperative relationship between the two companies.

After leaving Tianyuan Architectural Design Company, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Jingyao drove, Ji Xiuran sat in the passenger seat, and the two went back to the company together.

The road was a bit congested, the car stopped and went very slowly, Lu Jingyao wanted to connect to the phone and play some music to pass the time, but found that the phone was almost out of battery.

"Let me do it." Ji Xiuran turned on the Bluetooth of his mobile phone, successfully paired with the car stereo, then found the music player, swipe the screen with his fingers, and his eyes fell on some of the songs. play button.

Ji Xiuran played an English song called "The Salt Waterroom". The brisk melody slowly flowed in the car. He turned his face to look out the window, hiding his anticipation.

The song ended, and then he played some brisk or gentle songs, and the lyrics all expressed a feeling of unrequited love.Ji Xiuran's fingers hanging on one side were tensely clenched into fists, his eyes flickered slightly.

Will Lu Jingyao notice?Can he find out?

At this time, Lu Jingyao, who was driving, turned a corner. Out of the corner of his eye, he sneaked a glance at Ji Xiuran who was beside him. He had heard these songs while studying, so he naturally knew the meaning expressed in their lyrics.

So... coincidence or what?

The car slowly drove into the parking lot downstairs of the company, and the music stopped abruptly. Lu Jingyao got out of the car and carefully observed the expression on Ji Xiuran's face. Seeing that his expression was normal, he didn't seem to know the meaning of the songs just now.

It turned out to be just a coincidence...

When we arrived at the company, it was almost the end of get off work time, so Ji Xiuran went back to the office to sort out the materials, packed up his things, and walked out of the office to prepare for get off work.

There was a conversation between two people in his ears:

"Finally finished working overtime. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. Do you have any plans?"

"What plans can I have, of course I should hurry home to see my parents. Speaking of which, I haven't been home for more than two months. I really want to eat my mother's cooking!"

"Okay, good luck with that."

The voices of the young girls sounded very excited, and Ji Xiuran couldn't help but stop, lowering his eyelashes to hide the disappointment in his eyes.

It's been ten years, and it's the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is a year of reunion. He should be used to it, but now he feels extremely sad.If there hadn't been that car accident back then, would he have been able to go home tonight and have a meal made by his mother?

Lu Jingyao went downstairs and passed the seventh floor, and saw Ji Xiuran standing in the corridor from a distance, and then he also heard the cheerful conversation of two female colleagues, and he understood it in an instant.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is here, but his Xiuran can only spend it alone, very lonely, right?

Standing in the distance, Lu Jingyao watched as Ji Xiuran stood motionless for a while before walking downstairs and leaving. He subconsciously followed and drove out of the parking lot, but he didn't dare to follow too closely.

When he arrived in the community, Lu Jingyao parked the car downstairs of the unit, turned off the engine, but did not get out of the car to go upstairs.He's been busy these days, he didn't realize that today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, he's used to living alone outside, and he doesn't plan to go home, but Ji Xiuran...

Lu Jingyao lowered his head in annoyance and frowned. He really wanted to run upstairs desperately, but he didn't have a suitable reason. He was afraid of disturbing Ji Xiuran.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.

By the way, when I helped Ji Xiuran move that day, I still haven't returned the set of clothes I wore from him!That would be a good excuse to come see him!

Lu Jingyao hurriedly turned around and took out the suit from the back seat of the car. It had been washed and left in the car and forgot to give it to him. This was in great use!

Lu Jingyao closed the car door with a "bang", and impatiently walked into the apartment building. When he reached the door of Ji Xiuran's house, he took a deep breath and pressed the doorbell.

A few seconds later, the door was opened, and Ji Xiuran was standing in the entrance wearing his work shirt and trousers, looking at him in surprise.Lu Jingyao raised the bag in his hand, and said calmly, "I remember that there are still clothes that I haven't returned to you."

Ji Xiuran was stunned: "Why did you make a sudden trip? Just give it to me when you get to work." He took the bag and put it on the shoe cabinet.

When Lu Jingyao was questioned, he was stunned for a while, then he found a reason to fool around, and then he asked, "Did you eat?" If you haven't eaten, you can just go out to eat together, he thought.

Ji Xiuran shook his head: "There is no food at home, I am going to go to the vegetable market, otherwise there will be no food for a few days."

"Do you want to cook by yourself?" Lu Jingyao asked, paused and said, "Do you know where the vegetable market is? Or should I go with you?" There was a hint of imperceptible expectation in his tone.

Ji Xiuran blinked, he moved here for almost a month, and it was not the first time he went out to buy vegetables, so he knew where the vegetable market was, but when he saw Lu Jingyao standing at the door, he couldn't say no, so he shook his head Pretended: "I don't know."

"Then let's go." Lu Jingyao smiled, desperately suppressing the joy in his heart, pretending to calmly turn his head away, and took a step back to wait for Ji Xiuran to change his shoes and come out.

The two came to the vegetable market together, and Ji Xiuran didn't know what vegetables to buy. He walked to a stall, weighed some tomatoes and potatoes, and was about to take the bag handed over by the proprietress. His hand stretched faster than him, holding the bag of vegetables firmly in his hand.

Ji Xiuran turned his head and looked at Lu Jingyao. The two continued to walk forward tacitly. In the dark, he quietly raised the corners of his lips with a smile in his eyes.

Ji Xiuran bought some ingredients needed for home cooking, a big bag full, the two walked out of the vegetable market, put the bag in the back seat of the car, and prepared to go home.

Opening the door and entering the entrance, Ji Xiuran put the bag on the ground, turned around and looked at Lu Jingyao outside the door, and pursed his lips: "You..."

Lu Jingyao asked without thinking, "Can I stay for dinner?"

Ji Xiuran was startled, and asked back, "Don't you need to go home? Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival."

"My parents are not in City A." Lu Jingyao lied without changing his face, and asked again cautiously: "Can I stay?"

"...Okay." Ji Xiuran turned around, and Lu Jingyao, who was behind him, immediately picked up the bag on the ground to follow, and the two of them entered the kitchen together, sorting the dishes into categories, and putting the unused ones into the refrigerator first.After packing up everything, Ji Xiuran was ready to cook, he turned his head and asked, "Jing Yao, do you have any taboos?"

Lu Jingyao thought for a while and replied, "No."

Ji Xiuran understood, cleaned and cut the tomato neatly, and cracked two more eggs. With tomato scrambled eggs, he can no longer use potatoes, because potatoes and eggs cannot be eaten together.

In the quiet kitchen, the sound of knives cutting the chopping boards could be heard from time to time. Ji Xiuran was cutting vegetables in front of him wearing an apron, and Lu Jingyao was not idle either. After washing the rice and steaming the rice, he helped him.

"It's hot!" The chili was poured into the oil pan, making a sound, and the kitchen was filled with the smell of food. Lu Jingyao turned to look at Ji Xiuran's slender back, and his eyes became soft unconsciously.

Please let this time pass slowly.

Ji Xiuran cooked a total of four dishes, two meat, one vegetable and one soup, which was enough for two people. He turned off the range hood, and the noisy sound in the house instantly disappeared.Ji Xiuran took the rice bowl to fill the meal, walked to the dining table and sat down.

The two sat opposite each other and ate very quietly. After a while, Lu Jingyao broke the silence first and asked, "Two days off tomorrow, what are your plans?"

Ji Xiuran stopped eating, thought about it in his head, and replied: "I don't have any plans, let's read a book at home."

"Haven't you thought about going out?"

Ji Xiuran lowered his eyelashes, smiled wryly and said, "I'm alone, where can I go? I'd better stay at home for two days."

Hearing this, Lu Jingyao couldn't help feeling sour. He thought about it, and asked tentatively: "Then... what if you go out with me? I know a farmhouse, it's very interesting, or..." At the end of the sentence, he accepted After stopping the ending, Lu Jingyao looked at Ji Xiuran, feeling nervous in his heart.

Ji Xiuran raised his eyes and looked at him, his face was as calm as usual, but his heart was like a stone thrown into a lake, causing unsettled ripples.Does this mean being able to be alone for two days?Ji Xiuran covered the glare in his eyes, put his hand to his lips and coughed lightly, covered the smile that was about to be unbearable, nodded and said: "Oh, good."

"Then I'll pick you up at seven tomorrow morning." Lu Jingyao answered immediately, he stretched his brows, lowered his head and continued to eat, but the speed was so fast that he almost choked himself, which still revealed the ecstasy in his heart.

After dinner, he helped Ji Xiuran wash the dishes, and then reluctantly left, and when he returned home, Lu Jingyao lay on the bed after washing up, looking at the bright moonlight outside the window, unable to sleep, as if through the mist at night, he saw When Ji Xiuran agreed to him, his eyes were stained with a smile.

This is really the best Mid-Autumn Festival holiday ever!
