laugh? "

According to common sense, Sun Qi should regard her as a thorn in his flesh and wish to get rid of it quickly. This is the correct attitude to treat his rival in love.

Well, although she is no longer Sun Qi's rival in love.

"Have you ever heard of a saying?" Sun Qi looked at Cheng Xi, who was a little puzzled, and said with a faint smile, "When two people are together for a long time, they will become more and more alike."

Cheng Xi froze for a moment.

"Cheng Xi, you don't know, sometimes when I look at you, it's really like looking at another Ji Jinxu." Sun Qi said slowly, his eyes looked at nothingness, "On the surface, you are always full of spring, gentle and polite, good-natured His demeanor is impeccable, but in fact he is indifferent to everything, he is used to being wary of others, and he can clearly distinguish between gains and losses..."

The tea on the table was already cold, and Sun Qi had already left the private room.

Cheng Xi sat there thinking for a long time, but she couldn't deny what Sun Qi said.In seven years, it is too easy to influence a person.

She thought she walked cleanly, but she didn't expect that there are some things that can never be thrown away.

The door swung open.

Cheng Xi raised his eyes to look at the door standing at the door, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Gong Yizhen? Why do you..."

"That bastard didn't do anything to you, right?" Gong Yizhen walked over quickly, grabbed her up and down, looked her up and down, and then said angrily, "Didn't I tell you not to have sex with him again?" What kind of relationship!"

The corners of Cheng Xi's mouth curled up reluctantly, but in the end he couldn't hold on and drooped down again.

Seeing her disappointed expression, Gong Yizhen thought that the cooperation between her and Sun Qi hadn't been settled, so she hurriedly said, "Don't be sad because of that bastard. If you have anything to go back, I'll tell my brother. I don't believe there is anything he can do that my brother can't." She fixed her gaze on Cheng Xi: "As long as you tell me, I'll do it right away!"

Seeing Gong Yizhen's anxious and angry look, Cheng Xi suddenly wanted to laugh when he thought of what Sun Qi said just now, and in fact, she did.

In fact, she is still not quite like Ji Jinxuan. The light she has worked hard to chase has indeed affected most of her life, but it is different from the demeanor Ji Jinxuan cultivated since she was a child. When facing Gong Yizhen, she will only be straightforward. She still couldn't hide her feelings about the child she had always had.

Seeing her inexplicable smile, Gong Yizhen's heart sank, and she quickly reached out to touch her head: "Could she be drugged..."

Cheng Xi held Gong Yizhen's hand on his forehead: "What nonsense, I'm fine."

Only then did Gong Yizhen breathe a sigh of relief, glanced at her hand that was being held, and said nonchalantly, "Then why did you suddenly start laughing foolishly?"

Cheng Xi let go of Gong Yizhen's hand, and looked up at Gong Yizhen who was standing beside him: "Shouldn't you explain why you suddenly appeared here after being absent from work for a few days?"

Gong Yizhen paused for a moment, and said forcefully: "You, don't change the subject, I haven't asked why you and Sun are here!"

"You clearly know that we are here to discuss business." Cheng Xi shook his head, "There will be nothing wrong between me and him."

Seeing that she was serious about what she said, Gong Yizhen stood up straight with half-belief, "I barely believe you."

Cheng Xi also stood up, looked at the two people standing outside the door, and asked, "Is this your friend?"

"Ah, yes!" Gong Yizhen remembered that Bai Yinyin and the others were still waiting outside, turned around and introduced: "Bai Yinyin, I'm young."

"This is Cheng Xi." After a brief introduction, Gong Yizhen directly ignored Bai Yinyin's puzzled face, and continued: "At present, he is my boss."

Bai Yinyin glanced at Cheng Xi with a strange expression, then at Gong Yizhen: "Miss Gong, what are you doing..."

Gong Yizhen knew what Bai Yinyin was wondering about, but asked her how to explain it in front of Cheng Xi... She had no choice but to blink her eyes hard, and then said: "Well, thank you for today, if there is anything else, I will explain it to you later."

Cheng Xi took a look at the slightly awkward atmosphere, and smiled slightly, "The three of you made an appointment to play, don't lose your temper because of me, Gong Yizhen, I will leave you alone this week, remember next week Come report."

With that said, Cheng Xi was about to nod his head to signal to leave.

Gong Yizhen grabbed her hand, her eyes widened, "Are you in such a hurry to leave?"

"Miss Gong, I have to go to work in the afternoon." Cheng Xi shook his head helplessly, "You gave yourself a vacation, enjoy it slowly."

Gong Yizhen snorted, she knew that Cheng Xi attached great importance to her work attitude, she had been absent from work for so many days, if she was delaying her schedule now, Cheng Xi would probably be really angry.

"I'm going to the company tomorrow. You can deduct as much as you want from your salary. Are you satisfied?" Gong Yizhen let go of her hand, looked at Cheng Xi, smiled politely at Bai Yinyin, and left.

Gong Yizhen scratched her hair, watching her figure walk away with some irritability.

However, Bai Yinyin, who was standing by the side, was no better than her. She broke away from her lover's hand, walked up to Gong Yizhen and clicked twice: "Miss, what song are you singing? How many days?" Didn't see, you got involved with your rival in love?"

Gong Yizhen rolled her eyes: "Who told you that she is my love rival?"

"What's the matter, you don't like Ji Jinxu anymore?" Bai Yinyin's voice suddenly rose, and the people beside her hurriedly pulled her, and she realized that she was a little excited.

"No, let me tell you, Gong Yizhen, what do you think? Even if Ji Jinchu's strategy is too difficult, you can't, you can't make fun of others, or say, even if you can't get Ji Jinxu, you still have to get her people! "

Just as Gong Yizhen was about to say something, Bai Yinyin interrupted her again, which showed the anger in Miss Bai's heart, "I always thought of you as someone who couldn't rub the sand in your eyes, but I didn't expect that you would even kiss someone you like. The corners of the walls have to be dug..."

"Bai Yinyin!" Gong Yizhen's face turned dark, "Your brainstorming can be over."

Bai Yinyin choked for a moment, curled her lips and said, "Then tell me, what's going on?"

"I should have told you clearly earlier." Gong Yizhen flipped her hair frantically.

The person beside Bai Yinyin finally had a chance to speak: "It's not convenient to stand here and talk, why don't we go in?"

☆、Chapter 18

Cheng Xi remembered the words Sun Qi just said not long ago.

Cheng Xi, you don't know, sometimes when I look at you, it's really like looking at another Ji Jinxu.

She thought that there should be few people in this world with abnormal brain circuits like Sun Qi, but after hearing what Bai Yinyin said, Cheng Xi suddenly felt that her world had long since become abnormal.

Sitting in the car, Cheng Xi looked at the cars coming and going in the parking lot, and suddenly he didn't understand why he turned back, just because he wanted to ask if her dizziness had eased recently.

In fact, she just felt that when she left, Gong Yizhen's eyes never left, and she looked a little bit reluctant...

Cheng Xi lowered his head slowly, and accidentally pressed his arm on the horn, the ear-piercing sound suddenly sounded, and it sounded like a tingling sensation.

She felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, but it was definitely not because of the fact that "the person Gong Yizhen likes is not her".It's just that she suddenly felt a little ironic. The eldest lady's willfulness and nonsense were not aimed at her, and those emotions had nothing to do with her.

In fact, in this way, Gong Yizhen's unreasonable feelings can find a good explanation.The Gong family and the Ji family are family friends, Gong Yizhen may have long wanted to belong to her, but because of her existence, she couldn't do anything about it.

Cheng Xi wanted to laugh, but she curled the corners of her lips, but she couldn't.

The depressed emotions were so complicated that she couldn't react for a while, whether she was ashamed because this happened twice, or because of... the faintly revealed disappointment.It's just that no matter what the reason is, Cheng Xi finds it difficult to breathe.

Gong Yizhen is indeed a child, even if she is outrageously honest, even if she is terribly persistent, it turns out that it is only for a more ridiculous reason.

Cheng Xi laughed at himself.

Fortunately, fortunately, she never took those jokes seriously, and of course, she will never take those jokes seriously in the future.

……

As soon as Cheng Xi walked into the office, Xiao Liu handed over a document: "Manager, those documents have been filed last time. This is the one with a problem. Should it be returned to the department?"

Cheng Xi took it and opened it for a look. When he raised his head, his eyes glanced at the desk closest to the inner door.

Xiao Liu followed her gaze and quickly explained: "Although Xiao Gong didn't come to work today, someone called her to ask for leave."

Cheng Xi withdrew his gaze and asked, "Who's allowed the fake?"

Xiao Liu paused for a moment, then looked at Sister Yun who had just stood up.

Sister Yun glanced at Cheng Xi, and said in a low voice, "It's Secretary Yang's call. She said that Xiaogong has something to do these few days and can't come to work."

"Secretary Yang?" Cheng Xi's hands paused, and she turned to look at Sister Yun: "Why don't I know that the people in the office are so idle that they even take care of the vacations of the HR department?"

Both Sister Yun and Xiao Liu paused. Cheng Xi had been here for so long, and it was the first time she had seen her speak so coldly. It seemed that Manager Cheng still couldn't let go of Secretary Yang who replaced him.

Naturally, Cheng Xi didn't feel uncomfortable because of Yang Shuwen, she was just thinking that the eldest lady swore she would come to work yesterday, and it was just a joke.

This job is probably only part of her game.

The phone rang suddenly, and Cheng Xi came back to his senses, and realized that something seemed wrong with him, so he eased his face: "Don't worry about Gong Yizhen's affairs, you can go back to your own work."

Xiao Liu and Sister Yun hummed and looked at each other again before sitting down and continuing to work.

Cheng Xi looked at the caller ID, but frowned slightly, then put it aside and ignored it.

Gong Yizhen listened to the notification tone on the phone, cursed secretly, and called again without giving up.

Still no one answered.

Gong Yizhen looked at the phone a little discouraged, and comforted herself in her heart. It was working hours, so it was understandable for Cheng Xi not to answer the phone.

But the impatience and anxiety in my heart can't be lingered.

Zheng Xiaomu stood at the door, looked at Gong Yizhen, and sighed: "Zhenzhen, we should go."

Gong Yizhen looked up at her and nodded.

"Secretary Yang, I've already told her that you don't have to go there years ago." She reached out to take the box in Gong Yizhen's hand, and then touched Gong Yizhen's haggard face: "Don't even think about it." Too much, and it'll be fine."

Gong Yizhen hummed, and her eyes fell on the mobile phone in her hand again, but there was still no movement.

Outside the palace courtyard, two cars had already parked.

Gong Yizhen looked at a middle-aged couple who got off from the car in front, and said softly, "Hello, uncle and aunt."

Gong Weichang glanced at Gong Yizhen and nodded: "This time when I go back to my hometown, I will take you to meet the elders and uncles at home, so you should pay more attention to what you do and say."

Gong Yizhen nodded obediently. In front of this strict uncle, she never dared to be presumptuous.

Gong Yihe saw that she was uncomfortable, stood up and said softly: "Dad, let Zhen Zhen and Xiao Mu sit in the back, just take care of Lin Lin, I also have something to tell you."

Gong Weichang looked back at his son, then nodded, and got into the car in front.

The scenery outside the window receded quickly, and Zheng Xiaomu was still on the phone with people in the company, explaining the work of the past few days.

Linlin sat between her mother and aunt, turned her head to look left and right, and stretched out her hand to pull the aunt who was in a daze, "Auntie, where are we going..."

Gong Yizhen reached out to rub his head, but didn't speak.

Her gaze slowly fell on the sky outside the window. The gloomy sky seemed to be suppressed, which made people feel depressed.

In fact, Gong Yizhen didn't know where they were going.She was not at all familiar with the place that Gong Weichang called her hometown.She didn't even have much impression of the appearance of the seriously ill third grandfather they were talking about.

All she knew was that this third grandfather was the youngest brother of his grandfather, and he had stayed in the family and never went out.The reason why Gong Yizhen could always remember this third grandpa was that before he left, he told her that he had left some things for her with the third grandpa.

But grandpa still thinks too much. Although the uncle has not been very close to her, the cousin who grew up with her took good care of her, provided her with food, drink and fun, and cleaned up the mess for her. After so many years, he never complained about her.

Gong Yizhen sighed, and she patted Linlin's head: "Let's go to see a very old grandfather, he is Linlin's great-grandfather. The great-grandfather is not feeling well, Linlin sees you When you see him, you must be obedient and don't make grandpa angry, okay?"

Linlin nodded half understanding, then looked at her mother.

Zheng Xiaomu had already hung up the phone, looked at Lin Lin who was still a little confused, and reached out to hug him: "Auntie is right, Lin Lin must be obedient."

……

Cheng Xi glanced at the several missed calls on his phone, his eyes darkened slightly.

Xiao Liu knocked on the door of the office, and then poked his head in: "Manager, the meeting with the general manager is about to start, why don't you come over?"

Cheng Xi glanced at the watch in her hand, shook her head, "Please ask me for a vacation." As she said that, she had put away the documents on the table and stood up.

"If you ask why, just say I'm not feeling well."

Xiao Liu nodded hurriedly, then turned sideways to make way for Cheng Xi, and watched her walk out of the HR department's office.

While standing there waiting for the elevator, Cheng Xi subconsciously glanced at his phone again.

But now it has become much quieter, and there is no disturbing movement anymore.

A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Cheng Xi's mouth, and she breathed a sigh of relief, temporarily suppressing the depression in her chest, and stepped into the elevator.

When I was going out, I happened to hear someone shouting outside the door, "Mr. Ji!"

Cheng Xi's footsteps paused, and he stopped in place.

She looked at Ji Jinxu who was walking towards the elevator dedicated to the general manager, and suddenly felt a little dazed.

Even though they were still in the same company, Ji Jinxuan was still her boss, but since the day they broke up, they seemed to have never met each other.

Ji Jinxu seemed to have noticed something, turned his head slowly, and met Cheng Xi's dazed gaze.

Cheng Xi blinked her dry eyes, and she opened her mouth slightly, but she couldn't even say "President Ji".

The elevator door dinged open.

Ji Jinxuan nodded slightly at her, then turned and entered the elevator.

Seeing Ji Jinxu's still capable and capable appearance, Cheng Xi suddenly frowned.No wonder Sun Qi would say that the two of them are a bit alike, it turns out that even this free and easy look is exactly the same.

Cheng Xi turned around and walked towards the opposite place to Ji Jinpin without any hesitation.

The author has something to say: the same thing, because it is Gong Yizhen, Manager Cheng is very sad...

Comrade Xiaogong is going to grow up after he comes back, so we can't keep making trouble like this, hey, even mothers are tired.

☆、Chapter 19

It was already afternoon when we arrived at the old house.

Gong Yizhen followed behind her uncle and cousin, watching those strange relatives come up to greet her, and then looked at her and said in surprise: "This is Weixing's child, I haven't seen him for a few years and he has grown up so much... "

An older woman looked at Gong Yizhen and smiled kindly, took her hand and said, "Look at her eyebrows, she really looks like her father."

"If Weixing is still here..." Thinking of the deceased, the woman's eye circles turned slightly red, "I don't know what the situation should be like."

Gong Yizhen froze for a moment, she glanced at Gong Yihe with some anxiety.

"Auntie, you haven't seen Zhenzhen for several years, right?" Gong Yihe came over to support the woman: "This year, let her accompany you well."

The woman sighed, took Gong Yizhen's hand and patted her lightly twice.

Gong Yizhen also called out, "Auntie."

Although she didn't know how her relationship with her father was, it didn't look like she was pretending to be so sad.

Thinking this way, Gong Yihe had already taken her to meet other elders, and when Gong Yizhen turned her head occasionally, she could still see the gaze of that aunt from time to time.

After tidying up the room, Gong Yizhen remembered to check her phone.

Click to open a few unread text messages, all of which are greetings from Bai Yinyin.

She wrote back a message, so that Miss Bai wouldn't worry, so she threw the phone aside again.

The third grandfather is still in the intensive care unit, and the number of visits is limited every day, so he will not be able to see his old man until tomorrow.

Gong Yizhen looked at the ceiling, suddenly feeling a little overwhelmed.

The Gong family has a prosperous population, and there are more than a dozen cousins ​​from the grandfather's generation. Although due to some historical reasons, only a few survived to get married, the family business has not declined.These uncles and uncles can be regarded as up-to-date, relying on a little family background, they finally did not bury the face of their parents. Whether they are in business or politics, they are always dignified figures.

But it was also because of this reason that Gong Yizhen didn't like to return to this place, probably because after everyone has developed their own, the human touch has become more of pleasantries and mutual benefits.

Gong Yizhen sighed, stood up and walked out the door.Staying in the house seemed to make her more bored, it would be better to go out for a walk.

When they came back this time, they lived in the yard that their grandfather had placed when he was still alive. The layout and decoration are all in the simple and atmospheric style that his grandfather liked. Even the plants in the yard are so vigorous and dark green, which makes people feel It's not vitality, but a sense of arrogance.

Gong Yizhen stood in the corridor, looked at the woman standing by the tree, and stood up slightly.

"Why don't you rest in the house?" The man looked at Gong Yizhen and smiled gently, and walked up slowly, with a concerned tone, "I'm going to be tired on this journey, right?"

Gong Yizhen shook her head, looked at the person walking in front of her, and called softly, "Aunt."

Auntie smiled, seeing her rusty and polite appearance, she said helplessly: "You don't look like Weixing, he is always blabbering and restless, and he has no rules when he sees anyone."

Gong Yizhen inexplicably felt that her face was a little hot, she laughed, and then looked at this aunt again, maybe because she always mentioned her father familiarly, and she was very kind, Gong Yizhen always felt that she and Other relatives are not the same.

"My dad..." Gong Yizhen paused slightly, probably because she was not used to uttering this name from her own mouth, "What kind of person is he?"

"Him?" My aunt thought for a while before continuing: "He is very smart and hardworking. If there is one downside, he is too tempered, and no one can tell. At the beginning, when he and the second uncle got angry, several times I haven't entered the house for a year."

She heard about this matter from her grandfather, and it is said that it was also in those few years that her father and mother met and got together.

"You grew up with your grandfather, and I don't know if he will tell you about these things..." Auntie paused for a moment, and she looked at Gong Yizhen with some inexplicable thoughts in her eyes, "But look Now that you have grown up properly, he should have nothing to worry about."

Gong Yizhen felt that there was something in this aunt's words, but she had already withdrawn her gaze and looked at the trees in the yard, but she stopped talking about it.

"Go in quickly, my hometown is no worse than City C, and it gets very cold at night, so don't catch the cold from the wind." Auntie waved her hand, then turned and left.

Gong Yizhen looked at her back, feeling a little puzzled, but when she turned her head, she saw Linlin standing there with her head tilted: "Auntie, Grandpa asked me to call you in."

Gong Yizhen nodded, and pulled Gong Lelin into the room.

Seeing Gong Yizhen walking in from the outside, Gong Weichang coughed slightly, and then continued: "Third Uncle is a nostalgic person, and he can't stay in the hospital. When he is transferred from the intensive care unit, the family members will be in the hospital." Take him back to the old man."

The eldest aunt responded from the side: "Then let's wait at home?"

Gong Weichang paused for a moment, and told the result of the discussion with his cousins ​​just now, "I've already made arrangements in City C. This year, we will spend the New Year at home with my third uncle."

Chinese New Year at home?

Gong Yizhen opened her eyes slightly, that is to say, she couldn't go back to City C even a few years ago?

Gong Yihe also paused: "Dad, the company..."

"Is there anything more important than the wishes of the elders?" Gong Weichang said with a straight face, "I'll give you two days to deal with those trivial matters. Xiaomu's family should also remember to explain."

This is the final word, and there is no way to refute it.

Gong Weichang seldom returned to his hometown after his father passed away.This year it is rare to stay at home for such a long time, and it is inevitable to walk around among relatives.

It's fine to just walk around, and he also asked Gong Yizhen to follow by name, the reason is that Gong Yizhen is not young after all, and he needs to get acquainted with the family members.

Gong Yizhen took a deep breath in her heart, followed behind Gong Weichang and didn't say much, just called for someone, then slipped aside with a smile.Occasionally, I met that aunt and chatted with her, so the tormented days passed faster.

After Gong Weichang was finally no longer attached to taking her with him, Gong Yizhen was finally at ease and began to think about her own affairs.

The phone calls she made to Cheng Xi in the past few days were always unanswered. It was so long that she thought that something was wrong with this person, and Bai Yinyin gave the news that Baise had already taken her annual leave, and Cheng Xi had already returned home. .

Gong Yizhen looked at the news from Bai Yinyin, feeling a little helpless, but now that she was not around, she couldn't do anything.

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, the Gong family finally got the doctor's permission to take the third grandfather home.

Gong Yizhen stood in the crowd and looked at the old man lying on the bed with a weak smile, and suddenly remembered that her grandfather had also smiled kindly a long time ago.

It wasn't until Gong Yizhen was gently pushed that she realized that the third grandpa waved at her.

The aunt on the side smiled: "Come on, Third Uncle has something to tell you."

Gong Yizhen walked to the window, looked at the hand extended by the old man, held it, and called softly: "Third Grandpa."

The third master looked at it and smiled, "Yesterday I dreamed about my second brother. It seems that he knows that I want to see you. This kid really looks better the longer he grows."

Gong Yizhen's eyes were a little red, she lowered her head slightly.

"Tomorrow, remember to have a reunion dinner..." Third Grandpa paused before continuing, "Grandpa has prepared a gift for you."

Gong Yizhen looked up in surprise, but saw the old man patted her hand lightly: "It's all right, you all go out, my old man is going to sleep again."

On the evening of the 20th, all the relatives of the Gong family arrived at the old house. There were more than [-] people walking around the old house. The scene was very spectacular.The old man changed into new clothes and sat in a wheelchair. Seeing Sun Mantang here, his face looked much better.

Gong Yizhen stood aside, watching such a lively scene, but couldn't tell what it was like in her heart.She walked quietly through the crowd and stood behind the house, the light reflected by the bright red lanterns sprinkled on the path, stretching her figure long.

She still did not give up on calling this or that until the phone was miraculously connected, and Gong Yizhen heard the "Hello?" over there but still hadn't reacted.

"Excuse me, who is it?" A lady's voice came from the phone, "Cheng Xi is busy right now, what's the matter?"

Gong Yizhen said a few times before realizing: "May I ask who you are?"

"I'm her mother..." The voice over there paused for a moment, and then said again: "Are you, Xiao Ji?"

Gong Yizhen's complexion darkened for a moment, and she said bluntly to the phone: "No."

"Ah, I see so many missed calls from this number... I'm sorry," Cheng's mother smiled awkwardly, and asked again: "How about I ask Cheng Xi to call you back later?"

"No need," Gong Yizhen said in a firm tone, "She won't call me back, so don't bother me, Auntie, I'm just calling to wish you a happy new year!" She paused, and then Added another sentence: "Also, Auntie, my name is Xiaogong!"

"Ahaha, Xiaogong..." Mama Cheng probably heard Gong Yizhen's emphatic tone, smiled awkwardly, and suddenly said: "Cheng Xi, your friend is calling, come quickly Take it!"

"Xiao Gong, Cheng Xi is back, I'll let her answer the phone right now..."

Gong Yizhen breathed a sigh of relief.

She listened quietly to the phone and there was silence for a while, and then there was a rustling sound, but no one spoke.

This kind of silence was so long that every second seemed extraordinarily tormenting and bitter to her.She was afraid that in the next second, there would be a notification sound of being hung up on the phone.

However, the silence was finally broken.

Gong Yizhen heard that person's voice coming from far away.

"Hi, happy new year."

☆、Chapter 20

"Happy New Year." Cheng Xi's voice was as peaceful as ever, and it was hard to tell whether she was happy or impatient, but Gong Yizhen on the phone could no longer hold back. She took a deep breath and asked stiffly : "Why didn't you answer my call?"

"Why should I answer your call?" Cheng Xi replied a little amusedly, "Miss, do you really think that everyone is as free as you?"

"Cheng Xi, you!" Miss Gong's temper flared up again. She had been depressed and panicked for the past few days in her hometown, and finally got through to Cheng Xi's phone call, but seeing her with this attitude, she felt even more uncomfortable. , "Could it be that you are still busy working for your Baiser after you go home? I don't know your painstaking efforts. Can President Ji understand it?"

Cheng Xi paused, "If you want to quarrel with me, why not change the time. It's better to spend time with your family now."

Gong Yizhen snorted coldly, she glanced at the lively crowd in the room, and muttered unintentionally: "What do I want to do, and no one cares about me..."

"Gong Yizhen," Cheng Xi sighed, "what on earth do you want?"

"I didn't think about it..." Gong Yizhen said in a low voice, "I just miss you, Cheng Xi." The emotions that had accumulated in her heart for a long time finally couldn't be suppressed, because this sentence completely slipped away. She came out, "I don't want to stay here, I want to go back, I want to see you, this is my first Chinese New Year back in China, but I don't feel happy at all... Cheng Xi, I miss you."

Like a wronged child, she couldn't help being a little coquettish in her tone, but as the words in her heart were poured out, the last sentence seemed extremely disappointed.

Cheng Xi quietly listened to her aggrieved and disappointed words, and her heart was slightly disturbed, but soon, the throbbing that shouldn't have been suppressed by her.

"You're not a child anymore, don't take things too seriously." Cheng Xi said calmly, "No one can always take your feelings into consideration."

Gong Yizhen's full of grievances were suppressed by these words, her fingers holding the phone became a little white due to the force, but the person on the other side of the phone still said indifferently: "It's nothing to hang up Bar."

Gong Yizhen's gaze fell slowly, looking at the dark and cold ground, she opened her mouth slightly, "Cheng Xi, do you really hate me?"

She didn't know what she did wrong, or that she shouldn't have disturbed Cheng Xi's life from the very beginning, and let her own temper annoy her... But, she still had a little unwillingness in her heart, she didn't believe Cheng Xi Xi didn't feel anything about her, and she didn't believe it, Cheng Xi really only took her words as a joke.

But the sudden silence on the phone made Gong Yizhen not dare to wait for her answer, so she hung up the phone.

Cheng Xi listened to the notification that the phone was hung up, and was in a daze for a long time before dropping his hand.

Seeing her disappointed look, Cheng's mother couldn't help asking, "What's the matter with you and that friend?"

Cheng Xi shook his head, sat next to his mother, and held her arm: "Mom, we're fine, we've stayed up so late, can you hold on physically?"

Mother Cheng smiled: "Well, you have taken care of all the big and small things at home in the past few days since you came back. I have been idle all the time, so what could happen?" She patted Cheng Xi's hand, and then she was a little worried He asked: "It's you, why haven't I seen you contact Xiao Ji?"

Cheng Xi's eyes flickered for a moment, and he quickly replied: "Her big family is busier than us, so I won't make trouble for her."

Mother Cheng nodded, probably thinking of something, and sighed slightly: "Xiaoji's family is no different from an ordinary family, and you and her should not create rifts because of these. If there is anything wrong, discuss it more."

Cheng Xi didn't say anything else, but just said hello.

"But it's a pity to say that Xiaoji and I haven't met in person yet, have we?" Cheng's mother looked sideways at Cheng Xi, and said with a little worry: "You have to make it clear to him. Well, I'm not that kind of rigid parent, if she wants to come, you can't stop her."

Cheng Xi also turned her head to meet her mother's gaze. Seeing the full of concern, she couldn't help but feel a little sad. She reached out and hugged her mother, then leaned on her shoulder and said softly, "Mom, thank you..."

Cheng's mother froze for a moment, she hadn't seen such a childish behavior of Cheng Xie for a long time, her outstretched hand hesitated for a moment, and then lightly patted her on the shoulder: "Tell mom what to say thank you, as long as you are well, if you want I can do whatever I want."

"You said that you are almost thirty, and you finally found someone you like. I can't... oh..." Mother Cheng said softly: "When you were in high school, you told me every day what you were going to do in the future Dink, I am determined not to have children. When I got to college, I said that I don’t want to get married. I don’t understand, but later you worked to earn money, bought a house, bought a car, and I realized that what you said at the beginning was not a joke. You are determined to live alone..."

Cheng Xi slightly raised his head and looked at his mother, she smiled helplessly: "If Xiao Ji hadn't answered your call two years ago, how long are you going to keep it from me?"

Cheng Xi's mouth twitched, she watched her mother smile helplessly but reassuringly, and swallowed back the words that came to her lips.

Forget it, let her feel that she is living well, that's enough.

She changed the subject and said with a smile: "Don't just talk about me, Mom, how are you and Uncle Zhang doing?"

Cheng's mother blushed when she was asked this question, she quickly waved her hands, "What is this question, what do you mean me and him..."

Cheng Xi held back his smile, and asked again solemnly, "Oh, how is Uncle Zhang doing recently..."

……

The days after the year flew by so quickly, Cheng Xi booked a plane ticket and went straight back to City C. As soon as he landed, he received a text message from Sun Qi.

"Maurice is back."

So Cheng Xi didn't have time to think about those messy things anymore, so he put down his luggage and went straight to the company.

When she walked into the elevator, she pressed the floor where the office was located without any hesitation. Secretary Lu who came out to pick her up secretly glanced up and sighed inwardly. Cut down.

When she arrived at the secretary's office, after Secretary Lu handed over the documents to her, Cheng Xi just sat there for a long time.After Secretary Lu brought her the third cup of coffee, he finally couldn't help persuading her: "Secretary Cheng, why don't you take a break and watch it later?"

Cheng Xi looked up at her and smiled, "Why, are you starting to question my energy?"

"No, didn't you just get off the plane?" Secretary Lu looked at his watch: "It's been so long, let's take a rest."

Cheng Xi frowned, and replied, "Well, I'm not in a hurry anyway. By the way, Ai Luo has been in touch, right?"

Secretary Lu nodded, and couldn't help but add, "However, this matter has been handed over to Secretary Yang, so we don't know much about Ai Luo's latest developments."

Cheng Xi nodded, "I see, don't worry, it won't be a big problem."

"Then go and take a rest first, Mr. Ji's office has been packed..." Secretary Lu suddenly stopped, and looked at Cheng Xi with some embarrassment: "Well, I mean, the rest room is already..."

Cheng Xi closed the folder and replied calmly: "No need, I'll just sit here for a while."

Secretary Lu glanced at Cheng Xi nervously, and then said in a low voice, "Then, you rest first, I won't bother you when I go out."

"Yeah." Cheng Xi nodded, and leaned back on the chair with a slight relaxation.

Probably because he suddenly relaxed his body, tiredness hit him like a tide, but after a while, Cheng Xi had already closed his eyes.

It's just that Cheng Xi didn't sleep soundly. In her dream, someone seemed to be calling her name all the time. The voice carried a little bit of loss and grievance, echoing in her heart...

Cheng Xi, I just miss you...

Cheng Xi woke up suddenly, it took a while for her absent-minded eyes to regain focus, and then she saw the figure standing in front of the desk.

"Jin Yu?" Probably because he had caught a cold, Cheng Xi couldn't help sniffing when he heard his voice had a strong nasal sound.

Ji Jinxuan turned around and looked at her: "Are you awake?"

She hummed and sat up straight, only to realize that she was covered with a coat.She held the coat in a daze for a moment before putting it aside the table, "Why are you here?"

"I should ask you this." Ji Jinxuan leaned slightly, and looked down at Cheng Xi from above: "So you don't trust me?"

Cheng Xi met her gaze and shook his head, "I just think that doing things should have a beginning and an end."

"A beginning and an end?" Ji Jinxu looked at the eyes that were looking at him, and asked, "Is it just for this reason?"

Cheng Xi stretched out her hand and touched her throat. The discomfort in her throat made her turn her head and cough a few times, taking advantage of the opportunity to avoid Ji Jinxu's gaze.

"When the contract with Morris is signed and Ai Luo officially enters Baiser, you don't need to keep my resignation letter anymore." Cheng Xi said calmly, then stood up, watching the eyes that had never been seen. Ji Jinxuan left. "In the future, you will have no scruples."

Ji Jinxuan looked away, pursed her thin lips slightly, and said: "You talk like this, which makes me feel that you are so cruel to me because of me."

"You're thinking too much." Cheng Xi shook his head, "I'm only doing it for myself."

Ji Jinxuan looked at her with suspicion in his eyes.

"You don't have to question, Jinxuan, I am too similar to you, so you can choose to give up relatively unimportant things for yourself, and so can I." Cheng Xi looked at Ji Jinxuan's stern face because of his habit of giving orders, He smiled helplessly, "Look, you taught me these things."

There was no trace of emotion on Ji Jinxuan's face, she just turned around and left a sentence: "I will let you go after the contract is signed." Then she opened the door
