Ning Zhi: The king of cold knowledge.

Wanyi Group is the most powerful private enterprise in Lujiang City. In addition to a chain of amusement parks and theme parks, it also operates several horse farms and golf courses.

Twenty years ago, the group was not as strong as it is today, and a financial crisis almost caused the company to go bankrupt.Jiang Qiping worked hard with his father for three months, begging for help everywhere, begging for help, and finally turned the tide at the last moment.After that, the group's weak state continued for several years. In order to break the deadlock and revitalize assets, the board of directors tried every means.Jiang Qiping is always on business trips, dealing with governments in different places, leading teams to bid, personally inspecting construction sites, approving various reports, and even fainting due to hypoglycemia at the busiest time.

Jiang Chan was conceived at that time.His mother, Lin Zhenman, was a woman who was soft on the outside and strong on the inside. She knew that the group was at a critical moment, and she didn't want to add trouble to her husband. Therefore, every time she saw Jiang Qiping, she was always smiling, and she reported good news but not bad ones.

At that time, Jiang Qiping felt that he was the happiest man in the world. No matter how many cold eyes or setbacks he suffered outside, as long as he leaned against Lin Zhenman's stomach to listen to the child's movement, or asked his wife for a kiss, all the fatigue would be swept away. And empty.

He felt sorry for Lin Zhenman's hard work raising the baby, and hired many nannies to take care of her, but because of his busy schedule, he never accompanied Lin Zhenman to the prenatal checkup.What she didn't know was that Lin Zhenman was suffering from a disease that was not suitable for childbearing. The doctor suggested abortion at the early stage of pregnancy, but she didn't believe in evil and stubbornly wanted to give birth to the child.

After his wife passed away, Jiang Qiping was devastated, unable to take care of the newborn. Jiang Chan spent a period of time in the foster care of his aunt and uncle, and returned to Jiang Qiping when he was six or seven years old.

At that time, the father and son had nothing to say, and the precocious Jiang Chan was keenly aware that his father didn't like him, so he carefully kept a distance, and never approached him to make trouble.

Fortunately, his childhood was not lonely.Jiang Qiping’s loose stocking education gave him a lot of freedom. He can stay in the playground from morning to night, play with bumper cars for hours, sit on the merry-go-round until he gets dizzy, or lie on the glass in the aquarium and watch the swaying Dolphins wagging their tails.

Jiang Chan also raised a snow-white pony.

In contrast, Ning Zhi's childhood was much bleak.

Amusement parks and racecourses, these are places that Ning Zhi has seen from afar, but has no chance to enter.After 20 years, he once again had the idea of ​​​​exchanging his life with someone.

The envy in his eyes was too obvious, no one could turn a blind eye to it, even more cruel-hearted, especially Jiang Chan, and asked with a smile, "The racecourse is in Ying County, and it takes less than two hours to drive there. Do you want to go?"

Ning Zhi didn't care about reserve, and said honestly: "I think so."

"Then next weekend." Jiang Chan arranged the travel plan, "Leave on Saturday morning, come back on Sunday afternoon, and stay overnight at the racecourse. Are you free?"

"Yes." Ning Zhi concealed his joy, and followed Jiang Chan to the outside of the fence of the manor.There was a familiar Porsche parked there.

Jiang Chan started the car, and amidst the buzzing sound of the engine, the castle and the lake drifted away.

"Hey," Ning Zhi suddenly remembered something, "You just left, don't you say goodbye to uncle?"

"Need not."

"Oh." Ning Zhi closed his mouth tactfully.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Chan turned on the stereo, and a gentle symphony floated out.Ning Zhi's eyes lit up at the beginning, leaned against the car door, and asked Jiang Chan proudly, "Do you know what this song is?"

Jiang Chan pretended to be confused: "I don't listen to symphony much, so I can't tell the difference."

"This is Dvořák's Requiem." Ning Zhi didn't feel satisfied after just mentioning the name, so he conducted some instrumental music literacy for Jiang Chan.

"Taught." Jiang Chan said with a smile.

Ning Zhi squinted at him, always felt that Jiang Chan's answer was perfunctory, but he still solemnly stated his position: "So, although you are a rich second generation, but—"

Jiang Chan answered: "But we still need to ask Teacher Ning more."

Ning Zhi blushed slightly, and simply carried out his tough style to the end: "That's almost what it means."

"Understood." Jiang Chan's tone was lazy, low and gentle, and after a while, he said, "I have something to ask for advice now."

"what's up?"

Just at the red light, Jiang Chan stopped the car and turned to look at Ning Zhi.His eyes were somewhere between concentration and frivolity, like a cluster of sparks, landing on Ning Zhi's lips.

"Bed thing." Jiang Chan tapped the steering wheel, smiling happily and frankly.Thinking that Ning Zhi came from a scholarly family, it should be more elegant, so he added: "It's about the cloud and rain."

"How about it?"

There is no free lunch in the world, and Ning Zhi deeply understood this truth.In order to get the right to visit the racecourse, he quickly decided to sell Hue.

In fact, this is not a "sacrifice" to him at all. This deal is so cost-effective that Ning Zhi can't help but worry about the future of Wanyi Group. Jiang Chan is so stupid, the company will probably lose money.

After arriving home, Jiang Chan unlocked the fingerprint lock and invited Ning Zhi to go in first.The whole apartment was clean and tidy, empty and lonely, like a beautiful model room, exquisite but lacking in life.

This was not the first time Ning Zhi came here. He didn't need to be entertained by Jiang Chan, so he quickly changed into slippers, went to the bar to wash his hands, and then poured a glass of pure water.He was so thirsty that he drank half a glass in one breath before stopping. While wiping the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand, he asked Jiang Chan, "Do you want it?"

"Ah."

Ning Zhi intended to pour another glass for him, but Jiang Chan directly took the glass from his hand, raised his head and drank the rest of the water.

He drank water very softly, and his Adam's apple was rolling up and down. Ning Zhi stared blankly for a while, his mouth was dry again, so he walked to the French window to admire the blue sky and white clouds outside.

"Sit down." Jiang Chan put down the water glass, took a look at the paper bag on the sofa, and said to Ning Zhi, "Your."

"What?" Ning Zhi came over and found that the clothes he had left here had been washed and exuded a light lavender smell.He subconsciously asked, "How much?"

Jiang Chan didn't speak, just laughed.

Ning Zhi remembered that he was rich and did not lack those two copper coins, so he curled his lips and said, "Forget it. Anyway, it was you who made it dirty."

"What do you want to eat?" Jiang Chan picked up the phone to order takeaway.

"Whatever." Ning Zhi thought for a while, then added: "Let's be lighter."

Half an hour later, the takeaway from the hotel arrived. It was packed in an incubator, small and exquisite, and it was still steaming when opened.

Ning Zhi bit his chopsticks, looked left and right, very inattentive.

Jiang Chan asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's so quiet." Ning Zhi said, "Don't you think your family is not very popular?"

"It's like living alone, isn't your home very warm?"

Ning Zhi was stopped by the question, and said disheartenedly: "It's warmer than you anyway."

Jiang Chan smiled, walked over to turn on the projector, and asked Ning Zhi, "Is 'The Best Time' okay?"

Ning Zhi was stunned for a moment: "Yes."

He didn't know why Jiang Chan chose this movie made more than ten years ago. Such a coincidence, does he also like Hou Xiaoxian?Or did you choose a romantic movie with a slow pace?

Jiang Chan turned down the volume and returned to the dining table.The movie was played unhurriedly, and Shu Qi in the camera was thin and beautiful. They ate, chatted, and glanced at the curtain from time to time.

The sky is getting dark, and the movie has come to an end.Ning Zhi was sleepy, yawned, tilted his head, and tentatively leaned against Jiang Chan's chest.

They have known each other for almost two months, except on the bed, their physical contact with each other is almost zero, Ning Zhi felt that it is necessary to cultivate a sense of intimacy, so as not to be embarrassed when doing business later.

As soon as he lay down, Jiang Chan moved his shoulders. Ning Zhi thought he was uncomfortable and straightened up embarrassingly, but Jiang Chan opened his arms and hugged him into his arms.

Even through the clothes, the fingers resting on his stomach still felt vivid to the touch, Ning Zhi's skin tightened, and the temperature began to rise.He rolled his eyes and looked up vigorously, before he could speak, he was kissed.

There was a clean and refreshing smell on Jiang Chan's body, and Ning Zhi sniffed it lightly, and liked it very much.After a while, the kiss gradually turned from lingering to intense. Ning Zhi dodged Jiang Chan's persistent tongue that wanted to penetrate deeply, and looked embarrassed: "I haven't brushed my teeth yet!"

Jiang Chan let go of him, feeling helpless, regretful, and unsatisfied, and couldn't help but smile slightly at Shang Ningzhi's moist, dark eyes.

Ning Zhi sat back in his original position, lowered his head to straighten his clothes, his heartbeat was a little abnormal.

It must have been because he hadn't kissed for a long time. He took a deep breath, decided to ease the situation, and said loudly to Jiang Chan, "Let me tell you something cold."
