if you serious you lose
Chapter 14 The Bitterness of Coffee
After successfully getting rid of Manager Wang and Nenmo Chen, Yan Zhilu drove home.
After a day of brain-intensive business negotiations and engineering inspections, Yan Zhilu wanted to take a hot spring massage at the resort, but after seeing the two intimate figures, he suddenly lost the desire to stay and enjoy himself, and decided to chose to leave.
After washing, Zhili was wearing a loose and casual T-shirt and sweatpants. While rubbing his wet hair with a white towel with one hand, he came to the private bar specially set up at home and took out an appropriate amount from the freezer. I put the ice cubes in the glass, poured the whiskey, and drank it down in one gulp.
The inexplicable depression was finally relieved after a few cups of cow drinks. Alcohol didn't seem to make him dizzy, but made his head clearer. He began to think that Qin Jie had a crush on him, but he didn't respond immediately to his confession. Could it be because of the man with whom he behaved intimately?
What this obviously unfavorable guess brings to this man is not a simple negative emotion, but mixed with a feeling that can make the corners of his lips twitch. Very good, this is more interesting, and the law of words is inexplicably excited .
With this delicate and complicated mood, Yan Zhili walked into the bedroom to get ready to rest, but was interrupted by a phone call.
Tonight's rare gathering, no alcohol, no sadness, opened the door, didn't turn on the light, Qin Jie threw himself on the sofa in the living room in the darkness contentedly, turned around, and retracted himself into the sofa bit by bit, as if To be embedded in another space.
Then, listening to the intensifying throbbing in my heart, I indulged in the clear picture in my mind, there was that person's black coat, and there was a faint smell that became familiar unconsciously, low and always teasing The tone of the voice attracts people to look at his slightly narrow and piercing eyes. In the end, there is a kiss that seems real and fake, sweeping across the left ear and fixing on the temple.
"Qin Jie?"
The mellow male voice that was only in his mind a few minutes ago is now in his ears. Qin Jie sat up, his left hand holding the phone trembled a little.
"Yes, it's me. I'm sorry to call you so late."
"It's okay, I didn't sleep either, I'm glad to hear your voice before going to bed."
Yan Zhilu was really a little surprised that Qin Jie would call him. Since the two of them have known each other for half a year, they usually don't talk on the phone very often. He is also the one who initiates the invitation, and usually uses social software to communicate. On such a night, the old-fashioned contact method, It was the first time.
"Yan Zhili, are you free these days? Let's meet up."
Qin Jie was originally afraid that he would be too nervous to invite him smoothly, but after hearing that Yan Zhilu was happy for his call, he was moved and naturally sent out the invitation.
"Of course I'm free to meet you, how about tomorrow?"
It was no longer Lu Shao, but calling his own name. Yan Zhilv reconfirmed that Qin Jie was very different tonight, and made his heart beat a little faster along with the man on the phone who couldn't hide his tense tone. There is an urge to just see each other's changes face to face as soon as possible.
"Well, it's tomorrow. Then, good night. The law of words."
"OK, good night."
On this day, after experiencing several emotional ups and downs, the two of them fell asleep without being excited about tomorrow's meeting for too long, but, compared to usual, the dream seemed to have a slightly sweeter taste.
Stepping into S City in February, the temperature also dropped a lot. Qin Jie couldn't help wrapping the scarf around his neck tighter with his hands as he walked on the road, and his pace also quickened a lot.
Qin Jie took the driver's license test when he was in college, and occasionally drove a car afterwards, but unlike ordinary men, Qin Jie didn't seem to be very interested in driving, and he didn't pay much attention to cars. When he was abroad, it was purely out of convenience I just bought a car. Now that I am back in China, the transportation is convenient and my life is stable, so I haven’t bought a car yet.
Li Zi asked him before that if he wants to buy a car, he can recommend a car dealer and car model to him, because Li Zi thinks it is more convenient to drive by himself when going out to play, and of course he does not need to drive, but Li Zi still thinks that he has a car. Maybe Qin Jie can go further and more places.
When Mingming was in college, everyone was a sociable type, but since Qin Jie and Xia Yuan got together, in order to match Xia Yuan's temperament, they became more and more "nerdy".
Therefore, Li Zi also suggested this in the hope of encouraging Qin Jie to go out and increase social opportunities by buying a car, but Qin Jie still declined.
Now that I think about it, during the past six months after returning to China, apart from going to work, I really didn’t go out many times, and most of the "dates" were He Yanzhili, and it seemed that Yanzhili drove to pick me up every time.
Thinking of this, Qin Jie's face blushed unconsciously. No wonder he always felt that buying a car was unnecessary. Who told him to have a "special driver" service every time he travels on holidays.
Today, because the appointment place is a coffee shop near home, there is no need for Yan Zhili to pick him up. During the short 10-minute journey, Qin Jie kept replaying the past six months of the two in his mind. Jue came to the cafe with a heart full of joy.
The heating that hit his face warmed Qin Jie's slightly stiff body. He glanced at the scattered customers in the coffee shop, but he didn't find that familiar face. So, after ordering a cup of latte, he took the takeaway from the shop. The teddy bear with positioning function chooses to walk to a corner that is more used to on weekdays.
However, after walking a few steps, Qin Jie suddenly remembered something, turned around, and glanced at the European-style staircase in the middle of the coffee shop. The black wooden staircase is decorated with strings of imitation crystal ornaments, reflected by the weak warm light in the store It was a little eye-catching, Qin Jie, who usually never went upstairs because he thought it was troublesome, walked slowly to the second floor as if attracted by something.
This time, he came to a seat by the window and sat down. The view here is wider than that downstairs. No wonder there are more people on the second floor than on the first floor. Qin Jie sighed to himself and continued concentrating on Staring out the window.
"Sir, it's been a long time, your latte."
A slightly thin waiter brought Qin Jie's coffee, which interrupted his fascinated thoughts just looking out of the window. After thanking him, he took a sip of latte. The mixture of milk made the coffee taste less bitter. It reminded Qin Jie of the Law of Words again.
That person once said with a smile that he basically doesn’t drink other kinds of coffee except black coffee, because he drinks coffee to refresh his mind, and what he wants is the bitterness, and latte or something is just a half-toned entertainment drink.
Thinking of this, Qin Jie drank a few more sips of the steaming latte in his hand. If he knew that he only drank latte all the time, he didn't know how Zhilu would react.
It seems that the two need more time to get to know each other. Even when they met for the first time, Yan Zhili mistakenly thought that he was a tea drinker, didn't he?
Today's meeting is to confirm that the two can communicate more deeply and get to know each other in the future. Qin Jie's mood became agitated again because of this knowledge.
Since it was still a working day, although Qin Jie was on vacation, Yan Zhilu was still at work, so they made an appointment at 5:[-] pm, because Yan Zhili said that he could leave after negotiating a contract in the afternoon, and he would leave work earlier than usual .
It is now 5:10, looking at the gradually darkening sky outside the window, Qin Jie suddenly feels that the bright sunshine when he just went out seems to be an illusion.
Winter nights always come so quickly, but today seemed earlier than usual.
Taking out his mobile phone, Qin Jie sent a message "I'm here" to Yan Zhilu, then looked away from the window and waited quietly.
After another 10 minutes, the phone finally heard a sound, and it was Yan Zhili who called.
Qin Jie stared at the phone in a daze for a few seconds, then picked it up with an inexplicable emotion.
"Qin Jie, I'm really sorry, there's something wrong with the project, I have to go to District G to find out about the situation with the person in charge of the construction site there, I..."
Yan Zhilu's hurried voice was interrupted by Qin Jie.
"Understood, it's okay. Since it's an emergency, we should deal with it as soon as possible. Let's make an appointment next time."
District G and the coffee shop are located at the two ends of City S, and there is a huge distance between them. Qin Jie knew that Yan Zhili would not be able to keep the appointment.
"Qin Jie, I will definitely make it up to you. Really, I'm sorry."
"Well, hurry up and deal with the problem. It's getting dark, and you still have to drive to Area G. Be careful and remember to have dinner."
"Thank you, I will, and you too, go home after dinner. Let me know when you get home."
After hanging up the phone, Qin Jie still kept his original posture and sat quietly until the coffee in his hand was completely cooled, then he lowered his head and raised his head to pour half a cup of cold latte into his throat. At this time, he only had one feeling, Latte is not a half-baked coffee. Anyway, they really have coffee, and the bitter taste comes out when it is cold.
Qin Jie did not have dinner at the coffee shop, but went to a nearby noodle shop to eat a bowl of beef noodles. He was not used to those watercress dishes when he was abroad before, but because of his lack of cooking talent, he couldn't even serve a bowl of noodles well. I have eaten foreign food for 7 years. Although I have also eaten Chinese food in Chinatown, I always feel that something is missing.
Now that he is back in China, Qin Jie finally feels that he has regained his stomach.
Yesterday and today, he still thought a little bit about whether he should take the law of words where to eat something at night. He didn't have much experience in this kind of dating schedule, and now it's easier.
After eating the delicious beef noodles, Qin Jie told himself that it was the right time to come out this time.
Yan Zhilu is a little distressed, he has never felt that fate is tricking people, luck and so on are only cared about by frustrated people who complain about others and lack abilities.
But today, for the first time, Master Lu of the Proud Son of Heaven felt that he might be the so-called unlucky person.
For this appointment, the law of words is very meaningful, but the biggest project in hand, a site construction project in a new development zone that has been hailed by S City as the year's most attention-getting culture, business and tourism, is under construction. However, there was an incident where people were injured. If it is not dealt with in time, it will definitely cause huge pressure from public opinion.
As the main person in charge, he can only put his personal life aside, and he thinks this is reasonable.
But just now, hearing Qin Jie's generous and considerate response on the other end of the phone, Yan Zhilu's heart felt sore, and his chest was still accompanied by dull pain. Qin Jie's voice has always been gentle and pleasant, and it is no different today.
But after listening to the clearer and brighter voice last night due to the ups and downs of emotions, Yan Zhili couldn't help being stung by the loss and gloom in the gentle words.
After a day of brain-intensive business negotiations and engineering inspections, Yan Zhilu wanted to take a hot spring massage at the resort, but after seeing the two intimate figures, he suddenly lost the desire to stay and enjoy himself, and decided to chose to leave.
