Tan Shaoshi felt uncomfortable when Ke Yanrui accused her of breaking her promise, but she couldn't stand Yu Zhi being wronged.

She never doubted Yu Zhi at all, believed in Yu Zhi's character and believed in their feelings, and eagerly expressed her position in front of Ke Yanrui.

Ke Yanrui couldn't understand her feelings, so he sneered, "Sure enough, I said it. Is it the woman who accompanied you to Gusongxuan?"

"..."

Only then did Tan Shaoshi realize that her impulsive defense did not convince Ke Yanrui, but caused more questions.She calmed down a bit, recalling the previous tone, and was surprised that the response was so blunt as if she was looking for an argument. The reason "Yu Zhi is the person I trust the most" is obviously untenable.

"It must be her." Seeing her silence, Ke Yanrui knew he had guessed right, "I deliberately asked Xiao Shen to look for you alone, but I still couldn't guard against it."

"Mr. Ke, I know you are very angry." Tan Shaoshi said helplessly, "But she has a close relationship with me and is on the same side. There is no need to spread the news to harm me. It doesn't make sense either emotionally or rationally."

"I'm not interested in your relationship, I only know that you can't keep a secret and you are a person with no credibility!"

Tan Shaoshi knew that the facts had been settled, so there was no need to argue with Ke Yanrui, "Okay, no matter how the matter got out, I have to say sorry to you. I respect your opinion and will return all the materials."

"Oh." Ke Yanrui was indifferent to her repeated apologies, and his voice was still indifferent, "On Monday, I will ask Xiao Shen to go to Company F to find you."

"Ok."

Ke Yanrui hung up the phone without saying goodbye.

Tan Shaoshi looked at the call timer that stopped abruptly on the screen, and dropped her hand weakly, leaning back on the soft sofa.

Her empty eyes suddenly saw the clock on the opposite wall. The second hand walked quietly, the minute hand moved forward slowly, and the hour hand was stuck between 5 and 6, which symbolized that she had been drawing for more than 4 hours after lunch.

No wonder so tired.

Tan Shaoshi rubbed the center of her eyebrows, forced herself to straighten up, and saw the unfinished rough sketches and piles of notes on the coffee table, and realized that the reason she was looking for was too ridiculous.

This is obviously a waste of effort and exhaustion.

Tan Shaoshi sighed, closed her eyes and slowly used the excessive soreness of her eyes.

She spent too much time on the design of the phoenix brooch, thinking about it when eating and bathing, and thinking about the nirvana of the phoenix when looking at the flames of the stove.Ke Yanrui asked her why she wanted to speak out, but she was not convinced at the time, and she was even more aggrieved when she saw the design drawings that were no longer useful, but felt that the matter of being wronged and leaked the secret was secondary.

The design drawings were not available, and her cooperation with Ke Yanrui ended in an embarrassing way.

What about Yu Zhi's dinner invitation?She wanted to do something for Yu Zhi, but it aroused Ke Yanrui's resentment.

Tan Shaoshi felt even more lost, she fell down on the sofa and found a position to lie down.She hopes to just sleep like this, and when she wakes up, she will find that everything is just a dream. She can still worry about how to design the phoenix brooch, and she can still look forward to helping Yu Zhi after getting rid of Ke Yanrui, and seeing Yu Zhi happy. laugh.

She was in a daze, unaware that the time had passed quickly, and was brought back to her senses by the sound of the door opening.

Tan Shaoshi heard the soft sound of Yu Zhi putting the key on the cabinet, and also heard Yu Zhi's deliberately soft footsteps.She lay in one position for a long time, her arms were slightly numb, she took a deep breath, turned around and sat up with her hands on her hands.

"Wake up." Seeing her messy tools and blueprints still on the coffee table, Yu Zhi thought she was tired and fell asleep, "You can go to the room and sleep again. I will cook and call you in an hour."

"No, you come here first, I have something important to tell you." Tan Shaoshi thought that the long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain, and beckoned Yu Zhi to come over.

Seeing that her expression was wrong, Yu Zhi put the bag aside and walked in front of her.

Tan Shaoshi is not good at talking, thinking about how to tell Yu Zhi the bad news with gentle words, frowning.

When Yu Zhi sat down, the first thing she did was to rub the center of her frowning brows, "What's the matter?"

"The news about the phoenix brooch got out." Tan Shaoshi couldn't think of a more gentle way, so she said straight to the point, "Ke Yanrui thinks I did it, cancel the order and ask me to return the information."

Yu Zhi was taken aback, "Did he call you?"

"Well, just now..." Tan Shaoshi looked at the time and found that she had been in a daze for 10 minutes, she smiled helplessly, "10 minutes ago."

Yu Zhi didn't say anything, but reached out and hugged her.

Only then did Tan Shaoshi realize that her words were all false, she threw herself into the warm and soft embrace of her girlfriend, and groaned unhappily, "It's true Ke Yanrui, I obviously asked someone else to design it, so I suspected it immediately I."

"It's too much," Yu Zhi patted her head, using her usual coaxing tone, "Ignore him."

Tan Shaoshi was amused, and raised her eyes to see Yu Zhi's serious expression, "Why do you always act like this."

"I don't know much." Yu Zhi kissed her cheek, "How about this coaxing method?"

Tan Shaoshi leaned into Yu Zhi's arms and let out a long sigh of relief, "It's pretty good."

"Yeah." Yu Zhi hugged her even tighter.

Tan Shaoshi and Yu Zhi got bored for a while, Tan Shaoshi's depression was almost gone, and she simply thought positively, "Tomorrow is a day off, I don't have to draw the design, I can accompany you well...how about we go out tonight eat?"

She straightened up suddenly, turned around and talked to Yu Zhi excitedly.Seeing her making such big movements, Yu Zhi subconsciously reached out to help her, for fear that she would accidentally fall off the sofa.

Seeing Yu Zhi's thoughtful actions, Tan Shaoshi's heart moved, and she took the initiative to move closer to Yu Zhi, and kissed her soft lips, "How about going to eat barbecue?"

She remembered that Yu Zhi liked to eat meat.

"Okay." Yu Zhi replied softly, "I know a good store."

"Yeah." Tan Shaoshi lost the goal of the phoenix brooch, and now has the goal of spending time with her girlfriend, and finally she can pull herself together and stop being a salty fish paralyzed on the sofa, "I'm going to change clothes, you take a rest. "

Yu Zhi nodded, and helped her retrieve the slipper she kicked away, and put it by her feet for her to wear.

Tan Shaoshi has the illusion that she is a little princess.

Will she be spoiled?

Tan Shaoshi returned to the room to change clothes with inexplicable thoughts, thinking of the barbecue environment, tied up her hair, and touched the hair tie that Yu Zhi had arranged.

After living together with Yu Zhi, the "black hole" in the floor disappeared, and she would basically not lose hair ties, clips and the like.

Tan Shaoshi found that she was already spoiled, and Yu Zhi did so much for her, but she only caused troubles: the annoying Fang Xiaoyun spread rumors about Yu Zhi's selfishness in the company, her roommate brought in a group of bullies who splashed paint, and her mother didn't like her. please come...

and many more!

Tan Shaoshi suddenly thought of a very important point.

Mom also saw the blueprints this morning.

Tan Shaoshi realized that she had indeed only told Yu Zhi about the custom-made phoenix brooch, but Yu Zhi was not the only one who saw the information and the first draft of the painting she held.

With an idea, she took her coat and rushed out, "Yu Zhi, I thought of it."

"What do you think of?" Yu Zhi stopped and looked up.

Tan Shaoshi took a look and found that Yu Zhi had tidied up the messy things on the coffee table, the papers had been folded and the edges were aligned, all kinds of pens were sorted and put away, and the angles of inclination of the nibs in the pen holders were all the same.

"It's been hard work, but I have to mess it up a little bit, I'll clean it up later." She said apologetically, and opened a page of the neatly folded documents, and found the words written by Ke Yanrui last time:

130xxx, Ke Yanrui.

"You want to call Mr. Ke?" Yu Zhi was puzzled.

When Tan Shaoshi saw the picture, she immediately had an impression, "My mother saw the page where the number is recorded."

"You mean..." Yu Zhi guessed what she was thinking, "Auntie spread the word about the Phoenix brooch?"

"It seems unlikely." Tan Shaoshi also felt baffled.

"Auntie, do you know anyone in this business?"

"I know!" Tan Shaoshi remembered, "Auntie Xiao's son's wife."

This series of relationships made Yu Zhi frowned, "Is Auntie familiar with her?"

"I don't know, Aunt Xiao has been in poor health these years, so I don't go to the park with her anymore..." Tan Shaoshi said casually, and was awakened by the word park, "Ah, my mother often chats with people in the park. Before I left, I said that I had an appointment to go to the park with my dad in the afternoon."

"Do you suspect that someone approached Auntie deliberately?"

"Is it possible?" Tan Shaoshi felt that this was a bit over-compensated, and said uncertainly, "I'll call and ask."

"Don't." Yu Zhi stopped her, "It's six o'clock, is Auntie ready for dinner?"

"I don't know, let's find out." Tan Shaoshi still wanted to ask her mother face to face.

Yu Zhi snatched the phone directly, "Shao Shi, call after dinner."

"why?"

"If you are like this now, you will only quarrel with Auntie." Yu Zhinai persuaded her impatiently, "Let's go eat first, calm down, and think about the whole thing from beginning to end."

Tan Shaoshi had to admit that what Yu Zhi said was true.

Mom likes to dislike her, and she doesn't like to listen to her mother's words. It's her way of getting along with others, but this time it's mixed with other things, and it's easy to quarrel if there is a disagreement.

"That's right." She listened, "I'll think about it again."

Yu Zhi picked up the coat, shook it and helped her put it on, "It's so cute."

"..." Tan Shaoshi straightened her collar, and suddenly felt emotional, "My mother never said I was good."

Yu Zhi pinched her face, "I'll talk about it later"

Tan Shaoshi looked at Yu Zhi's gentle and beautiful smile, and took it for granted.

"Well, she should say you are good."

-

Tan Shaoshi promised Yu Zhi to eat first, and as soon as she got in the car, she focused on which barbecue restaurant was better.

"What kind of barbecue do you want to eat?" Tan Shaoshi looked at the various restaurants, undecided, and turned to ask Yu Zhi in the driver's seat, "Self-service? Order? Charcoal grill? Electronic barbecue?"

She read it according to the evaluation ranking, Yu Zhi listened quietly, and said, "Which one have you been to?"

"I've been to a few, but..." Tan Shaoshi thought that she was going with Zhuo Weilan, and cast a careful glance at Yu Zhi.

"But what?" Yu Zhi smiled, "Why are you so nervous."

Tan Shaoshi coughed lightly, and changed to a more pleasant way of saying, "There is no need to go to places we have been to before. There are so many new stores, we can try them."

"Is it because Weilan went to the place before?" Yu Zhi asked bluntly.

Tan Shaoshi stopped talking in a convoluted way, "Yes, I'm afraid you will be jealous."

"I'm not jealous."

"Really?"

"Really." Yu Zhi took the time to glance at her, "I'm much closer to you."

Tan Shaoshi always felt that Yu Zhi's smile was meaningful, cleared her throat, and forced the topic back, "It's about barbecue. I know there is a good one, it's on the third floor of shopping mall A, we can make a reservation, let's try it?"

"Well, listen to you."

"Okay." Tan Shaoshi booked a seat and continued to stare out the window in a daze.

When the car drove to the commercial area with the most traffic, she saw the billboard of company f at a glance, and her numb and empty mind thought about troublesome things disobediently.

"Yu Zhi, what if you can't invite Mr. Ke?"

"It's okay, Miqin won't make things difficult for me."

Yu Zhi's voice was too gentle, and Tan Shaoshi always felt that there was a sense of comfort in it, so she asked worriedly, "Is it really not?"

"The person I met this afternoon was her." Yu Zhi explained to her one by one, "There seems to be something wrong with her family."

"Did she entrust you with the business of the company?"

"No, but she does have that intention."

Hearing this, Tan Shaoshi felt that Mi Qin trusted Yu Zhi, and it was a trivial matter to invite Mr. Ke before the company's power transfer, so she was a little relieved.

The problem is, she still couldn't do anything for Yu Zhi.

Tan Shaoshi wanted to make it up, so she was extra attentive during the barbecue, helping to pour water, order, and barbecue.Yu Zhi likes spicy food, so she tasted all the spicy ingredients on the seasoning table, picked the strongest one, adjusted the taste, and spread it on the meat layer by layer to taste.

The chicken wings are crispy and spicy, they look very tempting, Yu Zhi is not in a hurry to eat by herself, she just tore off the meat and fed it to her who couldn't spare.

"You eat, I'll eat this after baking." Tan Shaoshi didn't want Yu Zhi to take care of herself.

"Let's eat together." Yu Zhi insisted.

Tan Shaoshi had no choice but to put down the tongs for the barbecue temporarily, and turned off the low heat to let the food roast slowly in the stove.She still had scruples about eating, so she couldn't eat quickly, so Yu Zhi took over the barbecue tongs and asked her what she wanted to eat.

In the end, she couldn't tell who took care of whom.

"Just let me help you." Tan Shaoshi couldn't hold back anymore.

"You've been helping."

Tan Shaoshi snatched the clip and turned over the bacon piece by piece, "That's all I can do to help."

"Are you still thinking about Ke Yanrui?"

"I can't help it." Tan Shaoshi pursed her lips, "I thought I could help."

Yu Zhi was helpless, "You have done a good job. If it weren't for you, I might never know what Ke Yanrui looks like."

"No, if you meet him in another way, without my intervention, the result will be much better."

"Ke Yanrui only likes talented designers." Yu Zhi said calmly, "I am not."

Tan Shaoshi thought of the mostly unfinished manuscript that Yu Zhi showed her, and was taken aback for a moment, feeling that this topic would arouse Yu Zhi's troubles, so she stopped in time and took the initiative to put a piece of baked bacon in the In Yu Zhi's bowl.

Yu Zhi dipped in the sauce and fed it to her mouth first to let it cool down.

Tan Shaoshi bit it down, raised her eyes to meet Yu Zhi's gentle gaze, and smiled.

They all feel that the other party is too good for them and they are not good enough, so they only stop thinking about it when eating.

"Shaoshi," Yu Zhi said softly when she saw that her expression was slightly relaxed, "do me a favor."

"Ok?"

"Don't call Auntie." Yu Zhi's lips slightly raised, her expression was peaceful, "Let's just let this matter go."

Tan Shaoshi was comforted by Yu Zhi's gentle and pleasant voice, and she solemnly agreed, "Okay."

After eating the roast, they go home smelling greasy.Yu Zhi is not a clean freak, but she likes the refreshing feeling, so she took her clothes and took a bath without taking a break.Tan Shaoshi has procrastination, thinking about drinking a glass of water before going to the bathroom, sitting on the sofa and playing with her mobile phone endlessly.

She didn't miss the message from her mother.

"The beef sauce is in the refrigerator."

Tan Shaoshi promised Yu Zhi to leave it alone, but she couldn't control herself from thinking about what was going on.

Her mother's talkativeness made her experience many times the annoyance of meeting acquaintances and chatting for half an hour, standing with sore legs.Such a talkative person goes to the park to brag. As long as someone who cares takes the initiative to talk about the topic, the mother will probably respond enthusiastically. Things got out.

According to my mother's temperament, this conjecture can be established, but from other perspectives, there are many unexplainable problems-how can others follow my mother?Why can mom memorize the two details of the phoenix brooch and Mr. Ke at a casual glance?

Too many questions were clamoring in her head, and Tan Shaoshi was so annoyed that she couldn't help asking, "Mom, have you told others about me?"

"what's up?"

"You saw my blueprints yesterday, right?"

"Oh, that Phoenix."

Tan Shaoshi was stunned, feeling that she was getting closer and closer to the truth, "Have you told others?"

Mom didn't reply to the message, but a phone call came, "What's the matter, can't you tell me?"

"Did you really say that?"

"I don't remember, but someone asked my daughter what she did this afternoon." Mom's tone was casual, as if she didn't take it seriously, "You're not doing shameful things, so there's nothing you can't say."

"Mom! I promised the client to keep it a secret!" Tan Shaoshi was annoyed for a while.

Mom frowned, "Why are you excited?"

"My order has been lost."

"Is this related to me?" Mom disagreed, "I just told someone I knew in the park, an ordinary old lady, who can't even figure out what Company F is."

Tan Shaoshi took a deep breath, "What does she look like?"

"Do you really suspect it's her?" Mom felt that she was making trouble out of no reason, "Shao Shi, why are you still like this, thinking about this and that all day long to make things difficult for yourself."

This is not the first time my mother has said this.

In the third year of high school, Tan Shaoshi cried to her closest mother about being isolated, and her mother also said, "Why do you think so much?"

Tan Shaoshi made a lot of mental preparations, but she ignored the resentment she had buried for a long time. When she heard her mother use this sentence again, she broke out completely, "Now you are the one who is making trouble for me!"

"What are you talking about!" Mom was also angry, "You will move out as soon as you graduate, and you will return home every half a month at most. You will notify us when you move and change jobs. There is no discussion. How can I make trouble for you!"

Tan Shaoshi gritted her teeth, "Can you stop changing the subject?"

"Okay, let's talk about the park. What's wrong with me?"

"Why did you tell anyone casually?"

"I'm happy!" Mom snorted coldly, "I just found out today that you didn't lie to me!"

Tan Shaoshi wondered, "When did I ever lie to you?"

Mom sighed, "In the past six months, you said that you found a new job, changed to a better house, and found a good partner, but you didn't say what happened."

Hearing her mother sigh, Tan Shaoshi realized that she was not arguing with an enemy, so she bit her lip and remained silent.

"Aunt Wang's son is out of town. He worked too much overtime and fell ill. He is still paralyzed in the hospital," the mother said more and more wronged. "You always work overtime, how can I feel relieved? We live in the same city. Live just like them."

Tan Shaoshi's anger dissipated just like that, replaced by deep helplessness.She always thought that she could handle it well when she was isolated in high school, and she adjusted her mentality without breaking down, but she didn't realize that she had stopped communicating with her parents.

She could hear the anxiety in her mother's tone, suppressed the old hatred, and focused on her mother's love, "Mom, do you want me to move back?"

"Yes, but you won't move."

"My home is too far away from the company, and the house has signed a lease for several months, so you can let me live here." Tan Shaoshi said patiently, "If you work overtime on weekends, there is no way, if you don't work overtime... I will go back and see you .”

Mom suddenly asked, "Did you really sign the rental contract?"

"correct."

"Isn't that your partner's house?"

"..." Tan Shaoshi was stunned, "Mom, why are you..."

Mom resumed her disgusted tone, "You think I can't see it? You can only be so obedient in front of your boss and your partner."

Tan Shaoshi felt that this was not pleasant.

But she couldn't argue with that.

Yu Zhi used to be her boss, and with such a close relationship with Mi Qin, she may really be her boss in the future, and she has absolute control at home, a kiss can make her honest.

"Yeah." Tan Shaoshi was finally able to say the prepared words, "I want to fall in love first, let nature take its course, don't rush us to get married."

Mom whispered, "I can't rush either."

"what?"

"It's nothing, I want to watch TV, don't talk about it."

Tan Shaoshi was dismissed by her mother for the first time, staring at the phone screen depressedly.

She got hung up twice today.

Having said that, my mother mentioned Yu Zhi, and changed the subject smoothly, without explaining clearly about the park.

Tan Shaoshi was thinking about making another call, but when she heard Yu Zhi coming out of the bathroom, she gave up: Forget it, mom thinks she's just looking for trouble, and she can't produce any evidence, so there's no need to look back for conflicts.

Yu Zhi saw that the light in the living room was on, and walked over step by step, and was a little surprised to see that she was still sitting on the sofa, "You haven't washed yet?"

"My mother sent me a message." Tan Shaoshi said something gratifying, "My mother knew about our relationship and didn't object."

"Yeah." Yu Zhi smiled with a calm expression.

"She has a good impression of you." Tan Shaoshi added.

Only then did Yu Zhi raise a bright smile, "That's great."

"Well, I'm going to take a shower."

-

Yu Zhi followed back to the master bedroom, sat on the head of the bed and wiped her hair. Suddenly, she remembered Tan Shaoshi's unfinished design drawing, and it was rare for her to have the inspiration to write.She dug out the previous draft book and drew a picture, but was disturbed by the vibration of Tan Shaoshi's cell phone after a while.

The screen of the mobile phone lights up, and a summary of the information is displayed one by one.

Mom: [image]

Mom: This is the person I was chatting with, do you know him?

Yu Zhi was curious, put down the towel and picked up the phone, wondering if there would be more detailed information.

Tan Shaoshi's mother talked about other things.

Mom: By the way, don’t eat and live for free, pay some rent and food expenses, and don’t owe others.

Yu Zhi remembered Tan's mother's expression this morning and understood.

They are not favored.

The author has something to say: add details of Yu Zhi’s painting_(:3∠)_
