behind your back
Chapter 5
After breaking up in the gym, Xie Zhihua didn't say a word to Yang Yiqi. The invitation to the ball was also finalized through his subordinates. He came whenever he wanted, and it was best to refuse. I always felt that his motive for calling Wu Mingjia Not very simple.
It was true that he was still angry, but he was angry with himself, Yang Yiqi just happened to be that mirror, allowing him to see clearly how he was not what he was.
It's just that he is emotional. He has been in the workplace for several years, and he has finally made some achievements by relying on overtime. Of course, he will not be so naive as to make life difficult for his own future.As long as Yang Yiqi is their client for a day, this grievance is nothing. Pretending to be nonchalant is his greatest specialty. As long as he is the right hand of the boss and contributes to the situation at the right time, he is worthy of the company.
"It seems that Manager Xie doesn't often play small white balls?"
"It's not that often, it's just that I've never called before. I'm sorry to make Xie Li Yang laugh--" Xie Zhihua knows everything about official business, but when it comes to personal matters, Yang Yiqi basically throws out two and a half sentences. It's like being thrown straight into the trash can and never coming back.
Yang Yiqi actually admired his performance of "distinction between public and private", but sometimes the acting was so realistic that even he himself was almost persuaded by Xie Zhihua.
If he didn't know him before, he might be able to appreciate his professionalism and poise from an objective perspective, but in fact they are very familiar, even to a certain extent, so in his eyes, Xie Zhihua is just following He was awkward, after all, his "joke" was really too much, but in order for him to remember his existence in a timely manner, there is nothing wrong with a small lesson.
After the game, because they were sweating all over, they took a shower, and when they had nothing to do, they chatted and exchanged ideas in the locker room. The reserved locker happened to be next door, and when they were shocked by this fact, their eyes met in the air for three seconds, but Xie Zhihua closed the door and left without saying a word.
Tsk, it seems that he intends to turn a blind eye to him and see the end?
The fate that was so short that he didn't even have time to blurt it out made Yang Yiqi just watch his back leave, he closed the locker, and before he could take his eyes off Xie Zhihua, Wu Mingjia, who had finished dressing up earlier, was walking towards him. When he reached out to take the mineral water he handed over, he put on an invincible smile in time.
"Is Yang Xieli going back to the company directly after eating?"
"I have a meeting at three o'clock in the afternoon, but it's just around here, so I'm not in a hurry."
"That's great. Being able to have a leisurely meal is one of the great joys in life!" Although Xie Zhihua had long been affirmed of Xie Zhihua's ability to handle affairs, he never expected him to be so skillful, and even the legendary difficult Yang Yiqi would let him down so easily. They made an appointment, it seems that their company should be able to maintain good interaction with KAM.
"Yeah, I haven't been this relaxed for a long time, thank you for arranging this game."
"What's there to thank? I just want to skip class and exercise my muscles. Don't tell my senior." Wu Mingjia, who used an official accent, didn't give in. Yang Yiqi unscrewed the cap of the mineral water bottle and took a sip of water, asking the question knowingly .
"Senior? You are talking about Manager Xie, right?"
"yes."
"Does your company follow the system of seniors and apprentices?"
"No, the senior is my senior in the university. We have known each other for a long time."
"Then you two have a really good relationship, and you even agreed to work in the same company after graduation!"
"Uh, it's actually just a coincidence, it wasn't a deliberate appointment. He is much more senior than me, and I have been relying on him. If he hadn't been there to support me all the way, how could I have such a leisurely relationship with Yang?" Where's the assistant playing?"
Yang Yiqi leaned against the locker and smiled slightly, "Manager Xie is really nice, but it's rare to see a supervisor who is grateful to his subordinates these days. I didn't expect Director Wu to be a sweetheart."
"I'm serious, the senior is indeed a good helper, don't look at him always with a straight face, but he is more enthusiastic than anyone else in his heart, he is a reliable and trustworthy person both in public and in private. "
"It seems that you have a good subordinate and a good senior!" Yang Yiqi secretly wrote this comment, although there was some irony in it, but Wu Mingjia didn't catch it.
The two walked and talked, and finally stopped at the entrance of the dressing room. Xie Zhihua, who came out of the shower, saw the two of them chatting from a distance, and couldn't help but take a few more glances.
When did Yang Yiqi and Wu Mingjia become so acquainted?
"Look at you, Manager Xie, you've praised him to the sky. If he was a woman, wouldn't you marry him home and be your good wife?"
"If he is a woman, I will marry him." Yang Yiqi was stunned by Wu Mingjia's reply without thinking, and he said nonchalantly:
"Unfortunately he is a man."
"That's okay, even if he's a man, I still like him very much." Wu Mingjia smiled helplessly, and Yang Yiqi was stunned by his inadvertently averted eyes.
Is this person—
"Are you guys here waiting for me?" Xie Zhihua, who entered without warning, surprised both of them. Wu Mingjia and Yang Yiqi looked at each other, and closed the topic just now in a tacit understanding.
"It's almost time and it's time to go to eat. Alex seems to be taking a step first." Seeing that the towel on Xie Zhihua's shoulder was about to fall off, Wu Mingjia helped him pull it on, and Yang Yiqi's eyes were a little glared by the careless move.
"That's right, it's time to go and invite the restaurant to serve food. Does Assistant Yang have any special schedule this afternoon?"
"There's a meeting at three o'clock." Yang Yiqi narrowed his eyes slightly, and he really was a senior and junior who graduated from the same university, and even the pattern of questioning was exactly the same.Xie Zhihua, who received attention for no reason, felt uncomfortable, so he had to find someone to distract Wu Mingjia and ask him to help him get things.
"What were you guys talking about just now? Seeing that you are laughing like a thief or a thief, there must be nothing good..." Xie Zhihua lowered his voice when Wu Mingjia turned around to get the ball bag, Yang Yiqi only cared about drinking water to quench his thirst, and answered casually.
"Since you know it's not a good thing, don't ask, haven't you heard that curiosity killed the cat?"
"Hey, didn't we promise not to confuse public and private?"
"We're talking about business, that's right, stop being suspicious." Yang Yiqi waved his back to him and walked ahead. Xie Zhihua was unwilling to reconcile and ran after him. He didn't find Wu Mingjia standing behind him with a ball bag on his back, watching him in surprise. Looking at the interaction in front of him that was beyond his expectations.
The senior and Yang Yiqi...is he dazzled?They have only met twice before and after, are they familiar enough to move their hands casually?Even though the overly intimate atmosphere made him mind, but as sensible as he was, he knew that it was not the time to speak. He stayed where he was and deliberately waited until the two of them were far away before slowly heading towards the restaurant.
"Senior, why do you only drink soup and not eat?" There was a lot of voices in the restaurant. Wu Mingjia, who had already finished a bowl of rice, found that Xie Zhihua next door had only eaten a few mouthfuls and didn't move his chopsticks. Er'er just came back from talking on the phone outside, and when he heard this sentence, he couldn't help but glance at him more.
"Uh, I'm not very hungry...I haven't digested what I ate in the morning..." Xie Zhihua smiled and lifted the tea pot on the table to fill everyone's cups.
"Does it mean that today's dishes should satisfy everyone's appetite? Although it is a restaurant operated by the stadium itself, it is quite famous in this area. Every dish is a signature dish. Don't be too polite, everyone—" Honestly speaking, as soon as he sat down I regretted it, regretted that when Lydia showed him the menu yesterday afternoon, why he refused to spare a little time to understand the content, so that he would not be indirectly retaliated against.
Among the five dishes on the table, two were "spicy" and "pork" that he didn't eat, and the remaining three dishes quickly bottomed out because they were cold cuts and green vegetables, and he was embarrassed to lock in only one dish from beginning to end. Vegetables are eaten, so I simply drink soup to be the bottom of the table, and then have a good meal after the dissolution.
"Not hungry? Is it true or not?" Wu Mingjia was dubious. After four hours of walking, he was almost starving. How could Xie Zhihua not be hungry?I remember that when he came to pick him up at home in the morning, they only drank a cup of American style in the car. Could it be that black coffee not only does not scratch the stomach, but also makes people feel full?
"I haven't touched this bowl of rice, how about I give it to you?" Seeing that Wu Mingjia's bowl had bottomed out, Xie Zhihua handed it over to her. Alex's appetite at the same table also beckoned the waiter to bring another bowl of rice. Yang Yiqi couldn't see it. The two were intimate, and they also whispered additional instructions to Alex with their cheeks on their hands.
"Miss, I'm sorry, please bring a menu here!" Alex added loudly.
"Sorry, is it because I have too few dishes? If I need to add something, I will tell the kitchen to make it immediately—" After the waiter brought the menu, Xie Zhihua, who is the host, immediately unfolded the menu and handed it to Yang Yiqi.
"Well, five dishes are indeed a bit short for four grown men, why don't you add two more?" Yang Yiqi slowly flipped through the menu, while the waiter at the side slightly bent down and memorized the dishes he named one by one. down.
For some reason, Xie Zhihua always felt that the atmosphere was made a bit awkward by Yang Yiqi. It was wrong for him to bring his personal emotions into work, but he used this method to fix him, which really made him lose face.Fortunately, Wu Mingjia has never had the style of a boss. If it were someone else today, he would have been blamed long ago, right?
Later, Yang Yiqi added some dishes with a lighter taste. When the hot three delicacies were served, he suddenly changed his mind and said that he was full and wanted to smoke. As a subordinate, Alex had no reason not to seize the opportunity to flatter the boss. He also claimed that the onset of smoking cravings left the meeting with him.
As for Wu Mingjia, when he saw the customer leaving the table, he told Xie Zhihua to stay and pay the bill. As a result, this decision made him look at the two dishes and couldn't help but sigh.
According to Xie Zhihua's past experience, once a customer leaves the dining table, he basically won't sit down to eat again. Looking at the two hot fried dishes just served, he also has to face the fact that he is already very hungry.
Although he ate this late lunch with the mentality of being a fluke and a scavenger, he was still very worried about letting Wu Mingjia and Yang Yiqi be alone.
Yang Yiqi is too unreasonable to play cards, he doesn't know when he will betray him, and he can only take one step at a time, so don't fight him for the time being, so as to see the tricks and minimize the damage.
smoking zone.
While Alex was going to the bathroom, Wu Mingjia begged Yang Yiqi for a cigarette and casually asked, "Assistant Yang ran away after ordering food, did you order food for others?"
"yes."
Wu Mingjia glanced at him, as if surprised by his frankness.Yang Yiqi laughed and said, "I see that Manager Xie's entire table of dishes hasn't moved much. He probably can't eat spicy food and is too embarrassed to react. If you don't feed him something, he might have a stomachache later."
"Again?"
"I myself often suffer from stomach pains because of irregular meals. I think he should be the same?"
"Really?" Wu Mingjia silently accepted his clarification, but there was a knot in his heart that couldn't be resolved, probably because outsiders took care of Xie Zhihua more than him, which damaged his self-esteem to some extent, right?
Half an hour later, the three men returned home with their own ghosts, and Xie Zhihua also seized the time to worship the Wu Zang Temple. When Yang Yiqi strolled in front of him leisurely, he was holding oolong tea and enjoying the aftertaste of drinking and eating. He didn't notice the intriguing smile in the eyes that inadvertently stayed on him. It wasn't until Wu Mingjia walked over and pinched his shoulders a few times that he realized their existence and hurriedly put down the teacup and greeted the guests to take their seats.
"Are you back?"
"Yeah, but I can't eat anymore... How about some hot tea?" Yang Yiqi smiled nonchalantly, but met Wu Mingjia's eyes behind Xie Zhihua and behind him.
Under that hearty smile, he always felt like an intruder under surveillance. He had to watch others declare their sovereignty before doing anything, and he always felt a little inexplicable.
On the way back, Wu Mingjia asked Xie Zhihua to hand over the keys based on the principle of one person, one trip. Xie Zhihua, who was used to being a driver, was a little bit persistent at first, but he couldn't be persuaded and had to sit in the passenger seat obediently.
"Senior, it doesn't feel bad to come out to play golf once in a while, right? Not only do you have dinner with clients, but you can also take the opportunity to exercise your muscles and bones. I quite like it."
"It's not bad, but it's a pity that my skills are too bad to catch up with you."
"I'm nothing, but Xie Li Yang is really good at playing, he must be the type of person who talks about business on the court."
"Maybe." Xie Zhihua replied lightly. He turned his head to look at the flowing scenery outside the window. Whenever he mentioned Yang Yiqi, he always felt uncomfortable in his chest. This person is like a thorn. If you don't tease him, you won't remember his existence. , but once you accidentally touch it, it will hurt your heart.
"But senior, are you familiar with Yang Xieli?"
"Uh, familiar or not, it's just a few times... What's wrong?" Xie Zhihua was holding on to his seat belt and pretending to be calm. Wu Mingjia glanced at him, and said with some reserved words:
"Oh...it's nothing. I just think that he is not as difficult to get close to as I imagined. On the contrary, he seems to have a delicate mind."
"How to say?"
"For example, Yang Xieli knew that the senior was hungry, so he not only added some dishes suitable for the senior's taste, but also deliberately left the table to avoid embarrassing the senior. He is really good at being a man—"
"Eh, is that so?" He thought Yang Yiqi was trying to fix him with the trick he used to deal with manufacturers, deliberately trying to keep him from stepping down...
"Senior can't eat spicy food, right?" Seeing him pursing his lips, Wu Mingjia immediately got the answer.
"Yang Xieli really knows the senior better than I do... I have known the senior so much that I didn't know that the senior can't eat spicy food, but Yang Xieli knew it after having a meal with us."
"Just, just a coincidence, right? Don't think too much about it."
Seeing that he denied it again, Wu Mingjia was silent for a while before turning the topic back to business. "By the way, has KAM decided to give us the X'mas order at the end of the year?"
"It shouldn't be a problem, right? Although Alex has repeatedly assured me that the order will be placed soon, but just to be on the safe side, I will call Assistant Manager Yang at night to find out what he has to say."
"Evening, do you often meet at night?"
"Uh, he's so busy, how can he find time to meet with the manufacturer? At most, it's just a phone call to let him know about the tight production capacity."
"I think so, if you have time at night, you will probably go on a date? Who would want to waste time talking about business with men?" Xie Zhihua's usual understatement made Wu Mingjia hold the steering wheel and couldn't help but look at him more glance.How good is the relationship between the senior and Yang Yiqi? This order will be the key. Everyone says that Yang Yiqi is difficult to deal with, but he has never heard of Xie Zhihua's comments. ?
"Yeah, so I'm thankful I didn't get rejected, and I didn't even think about asking him out—"
"I don't think Assistant Yang will not answer the senior's call."
"How did you see that?"
"Because the senior patted Assistant Yang so hard from behind, he could still smile at him, so he must be a very magnanimous person."
"When will I shoot him?"
"You even forgot about me when you walked to the restaurant at noon. Remember? I went to get the ball bag, and in a blink of an eye the two of you were gone."
"Oh, you said that? At that time, there was dirt on his back. I was filming the dirt for him, not him! I explained it to him afterwards." In order to complete a lie, you have to tell more lies, Xie Zhihua, who has long been aware of this point, tried his best to tell the story as smoothly and reasonably as possible.But how much of the conversation between him and Yang Yiqi was overheard by Wu Mingjia?Seeing that he didn't have any special reaction, and he didn't intend to continue any topic related to Yang Yiqi, he just turned his head and looked out the window, unconsciously lost in thought.
Later, Wu Mingjia had to go back to the company to sign a document because he received a phone call temporarily. Xie Zhihua, who had already taken a special day off, also followed into the company because of this.
When the two stepped into the office one after the other, Lydia immediately stepped out from behind Partition and walked towards them quickly, twisting her three-inch high heels.
"Boss, you are finally back, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
The mature woman's extremely unnatural and charming voice made Xie Zhihua subconsciously stroke her arm. Wu Mingjia was completely unmoved by his reputation for thick lines, and just walked towards his office with wonder.
"What are you waiting for me to do?"
"You have customers in your office."
"Who is it?"
"A beauty."
"Huh?" The sound of "huh" even attracted Xie Zhihua's attention, and Wu Mingjia suddenly lowered his face. Lydia, who was beside him, was curious but dared not ask, and kept winking at Xie Zhihua.
"BOSS——" He held Wu Mingjia's footsteps, but the hand holding his arm was gently pushed off. While feeling puzzled, Wu Mingjia turned his head and said in a very gentle voice:
"Didn't the senior ask for leave in the afternoon? If you have nothing to do, go back and rest early, you don't have to wait for me."
"But didn't you drive today? Then who will take you back?"
"It's okay, you go back first."
Wu Mingjia's reaction was indeed very strange. It seemed that the jerk inside must not be an ordinary person, otherwise how could he change his face in an instant, who has always been gentle.
"Has that woman been waiting for the boss in the office for a long time?" After Wu Mingjia closed the door, Xie Zhihua asked Lydia for information. She raised her eyes and subconsciously glanced at the office where the two were located.
"She had already arrived when I called you, and she also greeted her colleagues in the office during the hour you rushed back."
"Who the hell is that?"
"Will it be the future chief's wife?"
"Stop talking nonsense." Xie Zhihua scolded with a smile, but until the bell rang, the door closed by Wu Mingjia was still motionless, and he was still in the drafting stage while he was lying on his seat and typing the mail all afternoon. , unable to write smoothly for a long time.
"Why hasn't the senior left yet?"
"You finally came out?"
"Are you waiting for me?"
"Half and half, I will reply to the client while waiting for you, didn't you come by car today?"
"Senior is good at that, no matter what happens, you won't abandon me."
"It's time to talk about the honey belly sword, but what are you talking about that can be closed for so long?" Xie Zhihua gently closed the laptop screen without paying attention. Wu Mingjia walked up to Partition and raised his hand to look at his watch. He couldn't help showing a wry smile.
It was past seven o'clock, and he didn't expect that he could continue to have a fruitless conversation with that woman for three hours. He really admired his patience.
"It's nothing, just nonsense."
"Ghost? What the hell?"
"The one inside." He lay on the Partition and pointed to the office behind him in a low-key manner.
"Who is that inside?" Xie Zhihua couldn't hide his curiosity, Wu Mingjia leaned on the side and chatted, not nervous at all whether he would neglect the guests inside.
"My father arranged for my fiancée."
"When did you have a fiancée, why have I never heard of it?"
"It just popped up recently. My dad made a political marriage in order to expand the scale of the company, but I didn't nod at all. This fiancée was made by himself."
"What age is this still popular?" Xie Zhihua couldn't help frowning, "What about you? How do you plan to settle this matter?"
"I didn't plan much, it would be more effective to let the other party actively hate me." Wu Mingjia held his chin, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came to his mind. "Senior, can I have a discussion?"
"Is there anything I can do for you?"
"Can you be my boyfriend?"
"Huh?" Xie Zhihua thought he had misheard and dared not take the next sentence, but Wu Mingjia repeated it again, and his expression did not seem to be joking.
"We pretended to be gay to make her give up... Anyway, no woman wants to marry gay, right?"
"Isn't it good? If you lie to a girl like this—"
"What if? Is it because the senior doesn't want to help me or is he worrying about his own reputation? I don't even care anymore, can't you just support me?"
"No, it's just that there is no other better way?" It's hard to think of any countermeasures, but he wants to pretend to be gay... It doesn't matter to him, but if things get serious, how will Ming Jia stay in the company in the future? ?His father's property was to be passed on to him after all.
"I think this is the best and fastest way. Senior, just help me once!" Wu Mingjia half lobbied and half begged. Although the proposal was selfish, he disguised it very well and did not let Xie Zhihua see it. come out.
Even so, Xie Zhihua thought about it and felt that he shouldn't agree to his request, but before he had time to think of an excuse for his refusal, Wu Mingjia had already sacrificed his motivation and dragged him to the office without saying a word.
"Ming Jia, Ming Jia, I think this matter still needs to be discussed in the long run—"
"By the time the seniors finish their discussion, it will be half dark. If you can't think of a line, you can watch my performance?"
"Wait, wait a minute!"
"Jiawei, by the way, let me introduce you. He is the manager of my department and a senior in my university. His name is Xie Zhihua, you can also call him Wallace—" Wu Mingjia quickly turned the doorknob and pushed him to him. Staring blankly at the beautiful woman who got up from the sofa, from the roots of her hair to those slender ankles, why does it feel so familiar?Familiar with the word "Ni Hao", only the word "You" slipped out at the end, and the tone of hesitation and questioning made the other party slightly purse the corners of his mouth, and answered his question with a smile.
"Is that Wallace? It's more kind to call Xiao Xie." The beauty with an LV bag hanging on her wrist Qiao Xiaoqian walked towards them, Wu Mingjia couldn't help being confused.
"Why... do you two know each other?"
"Not only do you know each other, but you are also 'very familiar'."
"Jiawei..." The sound of Jiawei received Wu Mingjia's sideways glance. Compared with the graceful beauty, Xie Zhihua seemed struggling and passive.
"After we broke up, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years, right?" Gu Jiawei, who was not surprised and kept talking, made Xie Zhihua and Wu Mingjia's eyes focus on her face at the same time.
"Break up? When did you have a girlfriend?" Compared to his plan, the fact that Xie Zhihua had a girlfriend is obviously more important.
"Uh, that's all in the past." Xie Zhihua seemed to be frightened by his reaction, and pushed away his hand clasping his arm in embarrassment.
"The question is why don't I even know?" Haven't they been together all this time?After "that person" passed away, he also worked hard to catch up with him and was admitted to the same university. In order to clear the road, didn't he always work hard to fill the gap between them just to make him notice his own existence?In his cognition, he had almost filled all his time ten years ago. How did it happen between him and this woman? "
"Not many people know about this matter—" No, the point is not this, the point is that their relationship is just wishful thinking from the beginning to the end and it cannot be regarded as a normal relationship, but he doesn't know why Wu Mingjia showed such a shocked expression, Did he feel that he had betrayed his brother?No...he shouldn't know, he's been hiding it very well, hasn't he?They're just "good friends," so good that after one dies the other lives almost as a dead body.
"Yeah, I was very low-key at his request, but it's a pity that I cut it... Anyway, in the end, we are still married to each other, so let's pretend that this has never happened?" When Xie Zhihua felt that he seemed to be overshadowing When it was dark, Gu Jiawei made up for it in time.
"Aren't you—" Don't you only like "that person"?Even though he forcibly swallowed these words back, Wu Mingjia's heart was already filled with deceitful anger.If he had known that Xie Zhihua was so "passionate", why would he have to suppress his love for him in order to respect his deep affection for "that person"?If the love between him and Gu Jiawei happened after "that person" left them, it would be even more unforgivable.
"Not what?" Xie Zhihua was inexplicably stared at by him, but Wu Mingjia had already turned his head away and sulked.
"Ming Jia, I can explain this matter..." Although he was also confused, it was all because he was too slow to detect the other party's favor in real time, which led to the deepening of the misunderstanding, but he never thought about it. There will be girls who like him, and he only thinks that she is to comfort him who is heartbroken because of the death of a good friend, and he will always be by his side, until one day she lightly closes her eyes and kisses his lips. This is what it means to look around.
It's just that he wasn't ready at that moment, he chose to run away, and chose the worst way to respond.In order to prevent his tenderness from causing further harm in the future, he began to avoid Gu Jiawei and even made sarcastic remarks, so that the two became strangers until they completely cut off contact. Wu Mingjia's fiancée——
This world is really small, so small that he can't even do anything wrong.
"Forget it." Wu Mingjia convinced himself that he should be calm, but when he saw that innocent face, he couldn't help imagining the scene of Xie Zhihua flirting with others. He couldn't stand it, so he simply turned his back on him. "Seniors have the freedom to choose their partners, but I care too much..."
"It's just that I think I'm on good terms with the senior. The senior wouldn't even hide the fact of having a girlfriend from me. It seems that I overestimated myself..." He almost smiled wryly, Gu Jia on the side Wei watched the fire from the other side and took the opportunity to join the battle.
"It seems that you don't understand Xiao Xie too much. He is a person who hides everything in his heart, but this matter is really not a big deal, so don't make a fuss about it."
The fire that was already on the verge of being extinguished suddenly blazed again after she said this, Xie Zhihua grabbed Wu Mingjia in time, and the first sentence he said was an apology. "Ming Jia, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean not to say... I just—"
"I said forget it! I said it's okay! I don't mind, I don't mind at all! Really!" He had no position to mind. To Xie Zhihua, he was just the younger brother of "that person". mind?Maybe it's not just this Gu Jiawei, there are many men and women who come to fill this emptiness behind what he doesn't know, but why can't he see himself?
"But it's rare for a senior to reunite with an old lover in a different place, and now I'm the extra one."
"Mingjia...can you stop talking like that?" Hearing that Wu Mingjia's tone was still full of incomprehension, Xie Zhihua was also very depressed.Although he is also the sufferer, he can generally understand his feelings. After all, no man has such a large capacity to tolerate his woman and his best friend's "suspected affair", even though the facts he knows are not true.
"Since you said you don't mind, let's go eat? I'm so hungry." Gu Jiawei put Wu Mingjia on her arm with a sweet smile, seeing him resisting, she deliberately hugged him even tighter without changing his face, just because she didn't want to lose face in front of Xie Zhihua.
"Let's go? What do you want to eat?"
"I still have things to do, go and eat by yourself." Wu Mingjia had a sullen face and didn't even bother to talk to her. Xie Zhihua, who was on the side, saw that he seemed unhappy, so he stopped talking.
"But uncle said—"
"I don't care what he says, is it worth it to lose millions of dollars for a meal?" He broke away from Gu Jiawei and only wanted to send her away, but he let go and she turned around and hugged Xie Zhihua again.
"Then Xiaoxie, will you accompany me? I'm not used to eating alone—"
"You—" Didn't this woman just say that she had broken up with her senior?
"Are you always free? It would be an excuse if you reject me."
"This, this..." Xie Zhihua was in a dilemma, worrying about the feelings of her fiancé at the side. Seeing that Gu Jiawei had no intention of letting go, Wu Mingjia had no choice but to take over this hot potato no matter how unhappy she was.
"Anyway, I want to eat later, so let's go together!"
"Oh? Your case is over again?"
"Anyway, you don't come here every day. It's okay to make an exception once in a while. At most, I'll go back to the company to work overtime after dinner." Wu Mingjia cut into the middle without any trace, but he didn't want to see the two of them being intimate. Xie Zhihua seemed relieved, thinking that he would also This acquaintance point should not get in the way anymore.
"I won't go to you for dinner, see you at the company tomorrow."
"How can I do that? We haven't seen each other for so long, I have a lot of things I want to talk to you!"
"Next time? I'm a little tired today."
"Xiao Xie, can't we even be friends after breaking up? Are you hiding from me?"
"How, how could it be?" Can you please stop talking about "breaking up" all the time?They didn't date at all—
"Senior, since Jiawei has asked you to be like this, you can come together!" When they were at a stalemate, Wu Mingjia broke the silence. Xie Zhihua glanced at him and always felt a little embarrassed, but under the insistence of the two, He finally just nodded.
After all, if she survived this catastrophe, she couldn't avoid the next catastrophe. As long as she was Wu Mingjia's fiancée, they would meet each other. But what should they do to erase the memories of the past?Will she still remember what he once mentioned about Wu Mingjia's brother in front of her?
It was true that he was still angry, but he was angry with himself, Yang Yiqi just happened to be that mirror, allowing him to see clearly how he was not what he was.
It's just that he is emotional. He has been in the workplace for several years, and he has finally made some achievements by relying on overtime. Of course, he will not be so naive as to make life difficult for his own future.As long as Yang Yiqi is their client for a day, this grievance is nothing. Pretending to be nonchalant is his greatest specialty. As long as he is the right hand of the boss and contributes to the situation at the right time, he is worthy of the company.
"It seems that Manager Xie doesn't often play small white balls?"
"It's not that often, it's just that I've never called before. I'm sorry to make Xie Li Yang laugh--" Xie Zhihua knows everything about official business, but when it comes to personal matters, Yang Yiqi basically throws out two and a half sentences. It's like being thrown straight into the trash can and never coming back.
Yang Yiqi actually admired his performance of "distinction between public and private", but sometimes the acting was so realistic that even he himself was almost persuaded by Xie Zhihua.
If he didn't know him before, he might be able to appreciate his professionalism and poise from an objective perspective, but in fact they are very familiar, even to a certain extent, so in his eyes, Xie Zhihua is just following He was awkward, after all, his "joke" was really too much, but in order for him to remember his existence in a timely manner, there is nothing wrong with a small lesson.
After the game, because they were sweating all over, they took a shower, and when they had nothing to do, they chatted and exchanged ideas in the locker room. The reserved locker happened to be next door, and when they were shocked by this fact, their eyes met in the air for three seconds, but Xie Zhihua closed the door and left without saying a word.
Tsk, it seems that he intends to turn a blind eye to him and see the end?
The fate that was so short that he didn't even have time to blurt it out made Yang Yiqi just watch his back leave, he closed the locker, and before he could take his eyes off Xie Zhihua, Wu Mingjia, who had finished dressing up earlier, was walking towards him. When he reached out to take the mineral water he handed over, he put on an invincible smile in time.
"Is Yang Xieli going back to the company directly after eating?"
"I have a meeting at three o'clock in the afternoon, but it's just around here, so I'm not in a hurry."
"That's great. Being able to have a leisurely meal is one of the great joys in life!" Although Xie Zhihua had long been affirmed of Xie Zhihua's ability to handle affairs, he never expected him to be so skillful, and even the legendary difficult Yang Yiqi would let him down so easily. They made an appointment, it seems that their company should be able to maintain good interaction with KAM.
"Yeah, I haven't been this relaxed for a long time, thank you for arranging this game."
"What's there to thank? I just want to skip class and exercise my muscles. Don't tell my senior." Wu Mingjia, who used an official accent, didn't give in. Yang Yiqi unscrewed the cap of the mineral water bottle and took a sip of water, asking the question knowingly .
"Senior? You are talking about Manager Xie, right?"
"yes."
"Does your company follow the system of seniors and apprentices?"
"No, the senior is my senior in the university. We have known each other for a long time."
"Then you two have a really good relationship, and you even agreed to work in the same company after graduation!"
"Uh, it's actually just a coincidence, it wasn't a deliberate appointment. He is much more senior than me, and I have been relying on him. If he hadn't been there to support me all the way, how could I have such a leisurely relationship with Yang?" Where's the assistant playing?"
Yang Yiqi leaned against the locker and smiled slightly, "Manager Xie is really nice, but it's rare to see a supervisor who is grateful to his subordinates these days. I didn't expect Director Wu to be a sweetheart."
"I'm serious, the senior is indeed a good helper, don't look at him always with a straight face, but he is more enthusiastic than anyone else in his heart, he is a reliable and trustworthy person both in public and in private. "
"It seems that you have a good subordinate and a good senior!" Yang Yiqi secretly wrote this comment, although there was some irony in it, but Wu Mingjia didn't catch it.
The two walked and talked, and finally stopped at the entrance of the dressing room. Xie Zhihua, who came out of the shower, saw the two of them chatting from a distance, and couldn't help but take a few more glances.
When did Yang Yiqi and Wu Mingjia become so acquainted?
"Look at you, Manager Xie, you've praised him to the sky. If he was a woman, wouldn't you marry him home and be your good wife?"
"If he is a woman, I will marry him." Yang Yiqi was stunned by Wu Mingjia's reply without thinking, and he said nonchalantly:
"Unfortunately he is a man."
"That's okay, even if he's a man, I still like him very much." Wu Mingjia smiled helplessly, and Yang Yiqi was stunned by his inadvertently averted eyes.
Is this person—
"Are you guys here waiting for me?" Xie Zhihua, who entered without warning, surprised both of them. Wu Mingjia and Yang Yiqi looked at each other, and closed the topic just now in a tacit understanding.
"It's almost time and it's time to go to eat. Alex seems to be taking a step first." Seeing that the towel on Xie Zhihua's shoulder was about to fall off, Wu Mingjia helped him pull it on, and Yang Yiqi's eyes were a little glared by the careless move.
"That's right, it's time to go and invite the restaurant to serve food. Does Assistant Yang have any special schedule this afternoon?"
"There's a meeting at three o'clock." Yang Yiqi narrowed his eyes slightly, and he really was a senior and junior who graduated from the same university, and even the pattern of questioning was exactly the same.Xie Zhihua, who received attention for no reason, felt uncomfortable, so he had to find someone to distract Wu Mingjia and ask him to help him get things.
"What were you guys talking about just now? Seeing that you are laughing like a thief or a thief, there must be nothing good..." Xie Zhihua lowered his voice when Wu Mingjia turned around to get the ball bag, Yang Yiqi only cared about drinking water to quench his thirst, and answered casually.
"Since you know it's not a good thing, don't ask, haven't you heard that curiosity killed the cat?"
"Hey, didn't we promise not to confuse public and private?"
"We're talking about business, that's right, stop being suspicious." Yang Yiqi waved his back to him and walked ahead. Xie Zhihua was unwilling to reconcile and ran after him. He didn't find Wu Mingjia standing behind him with a ball bag on his back, watching him in surprise. Looking at the interaction in front of him that was beyond his expectations.
The senior and Yang Yiqi...is he dazzled?They have only met twice before and after, are they familiar enough to move their hands casually?Even though the overly intimate atmosphere made him mind, but as sensible as he was, he knew that it was not the time to speak. He stayed where he was and deliberately waited until the two of them were far away before slowly heading towards the restaurant.
"Senior, why do you only drink soup and not eat?" There was a lot of voices in the restaurant. Wu Mingjia, who had already finished a bowl of rice, found that Xie Zhihua next door had only eaten a few mouthfuls and didn't move his chopsticks. Er'er just came back from talking on the phone outside, and when he heard this sentence, he couldn't help but glance at him more.
"Uh, I'm not very hungry...I haven't digested what I ate in the morning..." Xie Zhihua smiled and lifted the tea pot on the table to fill everyone's cups.
"Does it mean that today's dishes should satisfy everyone's appetite? Although it is a restaurant operated by the stadium itself, it is quite famous in this area. Every dish is a signature dish. Don't be too polite, everyone—" Honestly speaking, as soon as he sat down I regretted it, regretted that when Lydia showed him the menu yesterday afternoon, why he refused to spare a little time to understand the content, so that he would not be indirectly retaliated against.
Among the five dishes on the table, two were "spicy" and "pork" that he didn't eat, and the remaining three dishes quickly bottomed out because they were cold cuts and green vegetables, and he was embarrassed to lock in only one dish from beginning to end. Vegetables are eaten, so I simply drink soup to be the bottom of the table, and then have a good meal after the dissolution.
"Not hungry? Is it true or not?" Wu Mingjia was dubious. After four hours of walking, he was almost starving. How could Xie Zhihua not be hungry?I remember that when he came to pick him up at home in the morning, they only drank a cup of American style in the car. Could it be that black coffee not only does not scratch the stomach, but also makes people feel full?
"I haven't touched this bowl of rice, how about I give it to you?" Seeing that Wu Mingjia's bowl had bottomed out, Xie Zhihua handed it over to her. Alex's appetite at the same table also beckoned the waiter to bring another bowl of rice. Yang Yiqi couldn't see it. The two were intimate, and they also whispered additional instructions to Alex with their cheeks on their hands.
"Miss, I'm sorry, please bring a menu here!" Alex added loudly.
"Sorry, is it because I have too few dishes? If I need to add something, I will tell the kitchen to make it immediately—" After the waiter brought the menu, Xie Zhihua, who is the host, immediately unfolded the menu and handed it to Yang Yiqi.
"Well, five dishes are indeed a bit short for four grown men, why don't you add two more?" Yang Yiqi slowly flipped through the menu, while the waiter at the side slightly bent down and memorized the dishes he named one by one. down.
For some reason, Xie Zhihua always felt that the atmosphere was made a bit awkward by Yang Yiqi. It was wrong for him to bring his personal emotions into work, but he used this method to fix him, which really made him lose face.Fortunately, Wu Mingjia has never had the style of a boss. If it were someone else today, he would have been blamed long ago, right?
Later, Yang Yiqi added some dishes with a lighter taste. When the hot three delicacies were served, he suddenly changed his mind and said that he was full and wanted to smoke. As a subordinate, Alex had no reason not to seize the opportunity to flatter the boss. He also claimed that the onset of smoking cravings left the meeting with him.
As for Wu Mingjia, when he saw the customer leaving the table, he told Xie Zhihua to stay and pay the bill. As a result, this decision made him look at the two dishes and couldn't help but sigh.
According to Xie Zhihua's past experience, once a customer leaves the dining table, he basically won't sit down to eat again. Looking at the two hot fried dishes just served, he also has to face the fact that he is already very hungry.
Although he ate this late lunch with the mentality of being a fluke and a scavenger, he was still very worried about letting Wu Mingjia and Yang Yiqi be alone.
Yang Yiqi is too unreasonable to play cards, he doesn't know when he will betray him, and he can only take one step at a time, so don't fight him for the time being, so as to see the tricks and minimize the damage.
smoking zone.
While Alex was going to the bathroom, Wu Mingjia begged Yang Yiqi for a cigarette and casually asked, "Assistant Yang ran away after ordering food, did you order food for others?"
"yes."
Wu Mingjia glanced at him, as if surprised by his frankness.Yang Yiqi laughed and said, "I see that Manager Xie's entire table of dishes hasn't moved much. He probably can't eat spicy food and is too embarrassed to react. If you don't feed him something, he might have a stomachache later."
"Again?"
"I myself often suffer from stomach pains because of irregular meals. I think he should be the same?"
"Really?" Wu Mingjia silently accepted his clarification, but there was a knot in his heart that couldn't be resolved, probably because outsiders took care of Xie Zhihua more than him, which damaged his self-esteem to some extent, right?
Half an hour later, the three men returned home with their own ghosts, and Xie Zhihua also seized the time to worship the Wu Zang Temple. When Yang Yiqi strolled in front of him leisurely, he was holding oolong tea and enjoying the aftertaste of drinking and eating. He didn't notice the intriguing smile in the eyes that inadvertently stayed on him. It wasn't until Wu Mingjia walked over and pinched his shoulders a few times that he realized their existence and hurriedly put down the teacup and greeted the guests to take their seats.
"Are you back?"
"Yeah, but I can't eat anymore... How about some hot tea?" Yang Yiqi smiled nonchalantly, but met Wu Mingjia's eyes behind Xie Zhihua and behind him.
Under that hearty smile, he always felt like an intruder under surveillance. He had to watch others declare their sovereignty before doing anything, and he always felt a little inexplicable.
On the way back, Wu Mingjia asked Xie Zhihua to hand over the keys based on the principle of one person, one trip. Xie Zhihua, who was used to being a driver, was a little bit persistent at first, but he couldn't be persuaded and had to sit in the passenger seat obediently.
"Senior, it doesn't feel bad to come out to play golf once in a while, right? Not only do you have dinner with clients, but you can also take the opportunity to exercise your muscles and bones. I quite like it."
"It's not bad, but it's a pity that my skills are too bad to catch up with you."
"I'm nothing, but Xie Li Yang is really good at playing, he must be the type of person who talks about business on the court."
"Maybe." Xie Zhihua replied lightly. He turned his head to look at the flowing scenery outside the window. Whenever he mentioned Yang Yiqi, he always felt uncomfortable in his chest. This person is like a thorn. If you don't tease him, you won't remember his existence. , but once you accidentally touch it, it will hurt your heart.
"But senior, are you familiar with Yang Xieli?"
"Uh, familiar or not, it's just a few times... What's wrong?" Xie Zhihua was holding on to his seat belt and pretending to be calm. Wu Mingjia glanced at him, and said with some reserved words:
"Oh...it's nothing. I just think that he is not as difficult to get close to as I imagined. On the contrary, he seems to have a delicate mind."
"How to say?"
"For example, Yang Xieli knew that the senior was hungry, so he not only added some dishes suitable for the senior's taste, but also deliberately left the table to avoid embarrassing the senior. He is really good at being a man—"
"Eh, is that so?" He thought Yang Yiqi was trying to fix him with the trick he used to deal with manufacturers, deliberately trying to keep him from stepping down...
"Senior can't eat spicy food, right?" Seeing him pursing his lips, Wu Mingjia immediately got the answer.
"Yang Xieli really knows the senior better than I do... I have known the senior so much that I didn't know that the senior can't eat spicy food, but Yang Xieli knew it after having a meal with us."
"Just, just a coincidence, right? Don't think too much about it."
Seeing that he denied it again, Wu Mingjia was silent for a while before turning the topic back to business. "By the way, has KAM decided to give us the X'mas order at the end of the year?"
"It shouldn't be a problem, right? Although Alex has repeatedly assured me that the order will be placed soon, but just to be on the safe side, I will call Assistant Manager Yang at night to find out what he has to say."
"Evening, do you often meet at night?"
"Uh, he's so busy, how can he find time to meet with the manufacturer? At most, it's just a phone call to let him know about the tight production capacity."
"I think so, if you have time at night, you will probably go on a date? Who would want to waste time talking about business with men?" Xie Zhihua's usual understatement made Wu Mingjia hold the steering wheel and couldn't help but look at him more glance.How good is the relationship between the senior and Yang Yiqi? This order will be the key. Everyone says that Yang Yiqi is difficult to deal with, but he has never heard of Xie Zhihua's comments. ?
"Yeah, so I'm thankful I didn't get rejected, and I didn't even think about asking him out—"
"I don't think Assistant Yang will not answer the senior's call."
"How did you see that?"
"Because the senior patted Assistant Yang so hard from behind, he could still smile at him, so he must be a very magnanimous person."
"When will I shoot him?"
"You even forgot about me when you walked to the restaurant at noon. Remember? I went to get the ball bag, and in a blink of an eye the two of you were gone."
"Oh, you said that? At that time, there was dirt on his back. I was filming the dirt for him, not him! I explained it to him afterwards." In order to complete a lie, you have to tell more lies, Xie Zhihua, who has long been aware of this point, tried his best to tell the story as smoothly and reasonably as possible.But how much of the conversation between him and Yang Yiqi was overheard by Wu Mingjia?Seeing that he didn't have any special reaction, and he didn't intend to continue any topic related to Yang Yiqi, he just turned his head and looked out the window, unconsciously lost in thought.
Later, Wu Mingjia had to go back to the company to sign a document because he received a phone call temporarily. Xie Zhihua, who had already taken a special day off, also followed into the company because of this.
When the two stepped into the office one after the other, Lydia immediately stepped out from behind Partition and walked towards them quickly, twisting her three-inch high heels.
"Boss, you are finally back, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
The mature woman's extremely unnatural and charming voice made Xie Zhihua subconsciously stroke her arm. Wu Mingjia was completely unmoved by his reputation for thick lines, and just walked towards his office with wonder.
"What are you waiting for me to do?"
"You have customers in your office."
"Who is it?"
"A beauty."
"Huh?" The sound of "huh" even attracted Xie Zhihua's attention, and Wu Mingjia suddenly lowered his face. Lydia, who was beside him, was curious but dared not ask, and kept winking at Xie Zhihua.
"BOSS——" He held Wu Mingjia's footsteps, but the hand holding his arm was gently pushed off. While feeling puzzled, Wu Mingjia turned his head and said in a very gentle voice:
"Didn't the senior ask for leave in the afternoon? If you have nothing to do, go back and rest early, you don't have to wait for me."
"But didn't you drive today? Then who will take you back?"
"It's okay, you go back first."
Wu Mingjia's reaction was indeed very strange. It seemed that the jerk inside must not be an ordinary person, otherwise how could he change his face in an instant, who has always been gentle.
"Has that woman been waiting for the boss in the office for a long time?" After Wu Mingjia closed the door, Xie Zhihua asked Lydia for information. She raised her eyes and subconsciously glanced at the office where the two were located.
"She had already arrived when I called you, and she also greeted her colleagues in the office during the hour you rushed back."
"Who the hell is that?"
"Will it be the future chief's wife?"
"Stop talking nonsense." Xie Zhihua scolded with a smile, but until the bell rang, the door closed by Wu Mingjia was still motionless, and he was still in the drafting stage while he was lying on his seat and typing the mail all afternoon. , unable to write smoothly for a long time.
"Why hasn't the senior left yet?"
"You finally came out?"
"Are you waiting for me?"
"Half and half, I will reply to the client while waiting for you, didn't you come by car today?"
"Senior is good at that, no matter what happens, you won't abandon me."
"It's time to talk about the honey belly sword, but what are you talking about that can be closed for so long?" Xie Zhihua gently closed the laptop screen without paying attention. Wu Mingjia walked up to Partition and raised his hand to look at his watch. He couldn't help showing a wry smile.
It was past seven o'clock, and he didn't expect that he could continue to have a fruitless conversation with that woman for three hours. He really admired his patience.
"It's nothing, just nonsense."
"Ghost? What the hell?"
"The one inside." He lay on the Partition and pointed to the office behind him in a low-key manner.
"Who is that inside?" Xie Zhihua couldn't hide his curiosity, Wu Mingjia leaned on the side and chatted, not nervous at all whether he would neglect the guests inside.
"My father arranged for my fiancée."
"When did you have a fiancée, why have I never heard of it?"
"It just popped up recently. My dad made a political marriage in order to expand the scale of the company, but I didn't nod at all. This fiancée was made by himself."
"What age is this still popular?" Xie Zhihua couldn't help frowning, "What about you? How do you plan to settle this matter?"
"I didn't plan much, it would be more effective to let the other party actively hate me." Wu Mingjia held his chin, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came to his mind. "Senior, can I have a discussion?"
"Is there anything I can do for you?"
"Can you be my boyfriend?"
"Huh?" Xie Zhihua thought he had misheard and dared not take the next sentence, but Wu Mingjia repeated it again, and his expression did not seem to be joking.
"We pretended to be gay to make her give up... Anyway, no woman wants to marry gay, right?"
"Isn't it good? If you lie to a girl like this—"
"What if? Is it because the senior doesn't want to help me or is he worrying about his own reputation? I don't even care anymore, can't you just support me?"
"No, it's just that there is no other better way?" It's hard to think of any countermeasures, but he wants to pretend to be gay... It doesn't matter to him, but if things get serious, how will Ming Jia stay in the company in the future? ?His father's property was to be passed on to him after all.
"I think this is the best and fastest way. Senior, just help me once!" Wu Mingjia half lobbied and half begged. Although the proposal was selfish, he disguised it very well and did not let Xie Zhihua see it. come out.
Even so, Xie Zhihua thought about it and felt that he shouldn't agree to his request, but before he had time to think of an excuse for his refusal, Wu Mingjia had already sacrificed his motivation and dragged him to the office without saying a word.
"Ming Jia, Ming Jia, I think this matter still needs to be discussed in the long run—"
"By the time the seniors finish their discussion, it will be half dark. If you can't think of a line, you can watch my performance?"
"Wait, wait a minute!"
"Jiawei, by the way, let me introduce you. He is the manager of my department and a senior in my university. His name is Xie Zhihua, you can also call him Wallace—" Wu Mingjia quickly turned the doorknob and pushed him to him. Staring blankly at the beautiful woman who got up from the sofa, from the roots of her hair to those slender ankles, why does it feel so familiar?Familiar with the word "Ni Hao", only the word "You" slipped out at the end, and the tone of hesitation and questioning made the other party slightly purse the corners of his mouth, and answered his question with a smile.
"Is that Wallace? It's more kind to call Xiao Xie." The beauty with an LV bag hanging on her wrist Qiao Xiaoqian walked towards them, Wu Mingjia couldn't help being confused.
"Why... do you two know each other?"
"Not only do you know each other, but you are also 'very familiar'."
"Jiawei..." The sound of Jiawei received Wu Mingjia's sideways glance. Compared with the graceful beauty, Xie Zhihua seemed struggling and passive.
"After we broke up, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years, right?" Gu Jiawei, who was not surprised and kept talking, made Xie Zhihua and Wu Mingjia's eyes focus on her face at the same time.
"Break up? When did you have a girlfriend?" Compared to his plan, the fact that Xie Zhihua had a girlfriend is obviously more important.
"Uh, that's all in the past." Xie Zhihua seemed to be frightened by his reaction, and pushed away his hand clasping his arm in embarrassment.
"The question is why don't I even know?" Haven't they been together all this time?After "that person" passed away, he also worked hard to catch up with him and was admitted to the same university. In order to clear the road, didn't he always work hard to fill the gap between them just to make him notice his own existence?In his cognition, he had almost filled all his time ten years ago. How did it happen between him and this woman? "
"Not many people know about this matter—" No, the point is not this, the point is that their relationship is just wishful thinking from the beginning to the end and it cannot be regarded as a normal relationship, but he doesn't know why Wu Mingjia showed such a shocked expression, Did he feel that he had betrayed his brother?No...he shouldn't know, he's been hiding it very well, hasn't he?They're just "good friends," so good that after one dies the other lives almost as a dead body.
"Yeah, I was very low-key at his request, but it's a pity that I cut it... Anyway, in the end, we are still married to each other, so let's pretend that this has never happened?" When Xie Zhihua felt that he seemed to be overshadowing When it was dark, Gu Jiawei made up for it in time.
"Aren't you—" Don't you only like "that person"?Even though he forcibly swallowed these words back, Wu Mingjia's heart was already filled with deceitful anger.If he had known that Xie Zhihua was so "passionate", why would he have to suppress his love for him in order to respect his deep affection for "that person"?If the love between him and Gu Jiawei happened after "that person" left them, it would be even more unforgivable.
"Not what?" Xie Zhihua was inexplicably stared at by him, but Wu Mingjia had already turned his head away and sulked.
"Ming Jia, I can explain this matter..." Although he was also confused, it was all because he was too slow to detect the other party's favor in real time, which led to the deepening of the misunderstanding, but he never thought about it. There will be girls who like him, and he only thinks that she is to comfort him who is heartbroken because of the death of a good friend, and he will always be by his side, until one day she lightly closes her eyes and kisses his lips. This is what it means to look around.
It's just that he wasn't ready at that moment, he chose to run away, and chose the worst way to respond.In order to prevent his tenderness from causing further harm in the future, he began to avoid Gu Jiawei and even made sarcastic remarks, so that the two became strangers until they completely cut off contact. Wu Mingjia's fiancée——
This world is really small, so small that he can't even do anything wrong.
"Forget it." Wu Mingjia convinced himself that he should be calm, but when he saw that innocent face, he couldn't help imagining the scene of Xie Zhihua flirting with others. He couldn't stand it, so he simply turned his back on him. "Seniors have the freedom to choose their partners, but I care too much..."
"It's just that I think I'm on good terms with the senior. The senior wouldn't even hide the fact of having a girlfriend from me. It seems that I overestimated myself..." He almost smiled wryly, Gu Jia on the side Wei watched the fire from the other side and took the opportunity to join the battle.
"It seems that you don't understand Xiao Xie too much. He is a person who hides everything in his heart, but this matter is really not a big deal, so don't make a fuss about it."
The fire that was already on the verge of being extinguished suddenly blazed again after she said this, Xie Zhihua grabbed Wu Mingjia in time, and the first sentence he said was an apology. "Ming Jia, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean not to say... I just—"
"I said forget it! I said it's okay! I don't mind, I don't mind at all! Really!" He had no position to mind. To Xie Zhihua, he was just the younger brother of "that person". mind?Maybe it's not just this Gu Jiawei, there are many men and women who come to fill this emptiness behind what he doesn't know, but why can't he see himself?
"But it's rare for a senior to reunite with an old lover in a different place, and now I'm the extra one."
"Mingjia...can you stop talking like that?" Hearing that Wu Mingjia's tone was still full of incomprehension, Xie Zhihua was also very depressed.Although he is also the sufferer, he can generally understand his feelings. After all, no man has such a large capacity to tolerate his woman and his best friend's "suspected affair", even though the facts he knows are not true.
"Since you said you don't mind, let's go eat? I'm so hungry." Gu Jiawei put Wu Mingjia on her arm with a sweet smile, seeing him resisting, she deliberately hugged him even tighter without changing his face, just because she didn't want to lose face in front of Xie Zhihua.
"Let's go? What do you want to eat?"
"I still have things to do, go and eat by yourself." Wu Mingjia had a sullen face and didn't even bother to talk to her. Xie Zhihua, who was on the side, saw that he seemed unhappy, so he stopped talking.
"But uncle said—"
"I don't care what he says, is it worth it to lose millions of dollars for a meal?" He broke away from Gu Jiawei and only wanted to send her away, but he let go and she turned around and hugged Xie Zhihua again.
"Then Xiaoxie, will you accompany me? I'm not used to eating alone—"
"You—" Didn't this woman just say that she had broken up with her senior?
"Are you always free? It would be an excuse if you reject me."
"This, this..." Xie Zhihua was in a dilemma, worrying about the feelings of her fiancé at the side. Seeing that Gu Jiawei had no intention of letting go, Wu Mingjia had no choice but to take over this hot potato no matter how unhappy she was.
"Anyway, I want to eat later, so let's go together!"
"Oh? Your case is over again?"
"Anyway, you don't come here every day. It's okay to make an exception once in a while. At most, I'll go back to the company to work overtime after dinner." Wu Mingjia cut into the middle without any trace, but he didn't want to see the two of them being intimate. Xie Zhihua seemed relieved, thinking that he would also This acquaintance point should not get in the way anymore.
"I won't go to you for dinner, see you at the company tomorrow."
"How can I do that? We haven't seen each other for so long, I have a lot of things I want to talk to you!"
"Next time? I'm a little tired today."
"Xiao Xie, can't we even be friends after breaking up? Are you hiding from me?"
"How, how could it be?" Can you please stop talking about "breaking up" all the time?They didn't date at all—
"Senior, since Jiawei has asked you to be like this, you can come together!" When they were at a stalemate, Wu Mingjia broke the silence. Xie Zhihua glanced at him and always felt a little embarrassed, but under the insistence of the two, He finally just nodded.
After all, if she survived this catastrophe, she couldn't avoid the next catastrophe. As long as she was Wu Mingjia's fiancée, they would meet each other. But what should they do to erase the memories of the past?Will she still remember what he once mentioned about Wu Mingjia's brother in front of her?
