Creation's grace

Even though there was a violent emotional ups and downs in the parking lot, Ran Jin and Chi Yu quickly adjusted their moods before going upstairs to meet Dong Ling.

There are no more topics that I don't want to talk about, and I can't pry them open.

Before entering Dong Ling's office, Chi Yu observed Ran Jin quietly and pulled her into the bathroom.

The women's restroom in the STAR building is exactly the same as the building, with a special dressing room. It is the office hour at this time. There is no one in the spacious and bright dressing room, only a faint fragrance and the sound of music.

Ran Jin thought she wanted to ask about Chi Li, but when he was about to speak, Chi Yu said, "Do you have any touch-ups?"

"Retouch? No."

Most of the time, she only wears simple light makeup.

She doesn't like to look at her face in the mirror for a long time, so she doesn't know much about makeup, and she doesn't want to know.

Chi Yu knew that Ran Jin's own make-up skills were really average, but this face was worthy of "the grace of creation", without any modification, it could bring out her astonishingly good bones, and her facial features were even more perfect.Her own cool temperament and sense of alienation also made her face very recognizable.

Chi Yu raised the corner of her mouth, as if talking to herself, with a low voice: "A person who is naturally beautiful can really be unscrupulous."

Ran Jin: "Huh?"

She took out a make-up makeup bag from her handbag: "I messed up your makeup just now. Let me fix it for you? Otherwise, when I see Dong Ling later, they will think that Chi's people are too casual."

Ran Jin wanted to say something else, but Chi Yu's fingertips were already resting on her chin: "Don't worry, this is brand new, I haven't used it yet."

Ran Jin didn't speak again.

Chi Yu patted the powder puff on her face lightly, and it looked like the color was right. Ran Jin's already delicate skin looked fragile under the light of the dressing room.

The distance between the two of them was too close, and Ran Jin kept turning his eyes to other places.

When the eyeballs move, the face tends to move unconsciously.

As soon as Chi Yu moved, she lifted her chin: "Don't move."

"Hmm..." Ran Jin straightened his back and let out a deep breath.

When the tone sank, Chi Yu noticed Ran Jin who had been trembling slightly just now, and finally restrained the nervousness.

Thinking of the night at the Mulan Club, Ran Jin's tongue already had the fruity aroma and tannins of wine when they kissed, so Ran Jin had already drank before she came.

Although he didn't know how much he drank, Chi Yu knew how little Ran Jin's drinking capacity was.

To do that kind of thing, do you still need to use alcohol to boost your courage?

The strong woman at that time, and the woman who is obediently pressed here to touch up her makeup now, are like two people.

And now this Ran Jin is the Ran Jin she is familiar with.

"Mouth, open up."

Ran Jin didn't expect Chi Yu to say such a thing, turned his eyes and found that Chi Yu was a little closer to him, staring at him with an unprecedented, very adult eyes.

The back that had just been straightened suddenly stiffened, and Ran Jin was locked in Chi Yu's eyes.

A sore heart, aroused an irresistible impulse.

She shrugged and sneezed a little.

Chi Yu raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter? Fortunately, I withdrew my hand in time, otherwise the lipstick would have scratched my face. Keep opening your mouth."

Instinctively obeying Chiyu's words, she opened her lips slightly.

Chi Yuen's eyes were heavy, her ears were very red, and an unrevealed feeling surged in her heart involuntarily.

Chi Yu endured the itchiness of his dry throat, and put the lipstick in his hand on Ran Jin's lips, which were only covered with lipstick.

The maple leaf red covered Ran Jin's lips with almost invisible lip lines, moisturizing the lips, deepening the color and making them more delicate.

Chi Yu used his fingertips to gently spread the color on Ran Jin's lips, blurring the border and forming a natural and soft smudge effect.

Ran Jin didn't know where to place his gaze, so he kept his eyes closed the whole time.

Unexpectedly, because the vision was cut off, the sense of touch became more sensitive.

When Chiyu's fingertips were pressed against her lips, this kind of contact was very strange to her, and she almost instinctively hid back.

But Chi Yu was still supporting her chin, so Chi Yu pinched her lightly again to freeze her movements after hiding like this.

"Don't hide." Chi Yu said softly, "If you move any more, the makeup you just finished will be ruined again."

Chi Yu's lipstick was on Ran Jin's lips, and she accidentally saw a fresh and shocking wound on the inside of her lip.

Chi Yu frowned and asked, "Did you bite it yourself?"

This is the wound Ran Jin left in the parking lot just now to control his emotions, and his mouth is a little heavier.

It was an insignificant thing to her, and she said "hmm".

"Doesn't it hurt?" In order to see the severity of the wound, Chi Yu used lipstick to slightly press down Ran Jin's lower lip, "Look, it's bleeding."

"It doesn't hurt..." Ran Jin felt that lipstick was like a part of Chi Yu's body, it kept touching her lips, disturbing her heart, making her suppress the soreness with great difficulty and tended to probe .

Can't go on like this anymore, Ran Jin had no choice but to raise his hand, grabbed Chi Yu's clothes corner, pulled it down, and asked, "Will it take a long time to touch up makeup?"

Chi Yushu breathed out a smile.

Is she kidding me?

"It won't be long, it will be soon, just bear with it."

Ran Jin's face was in Chi Yu's hands, and she was arbitrarily dressed up. After Chi Yu said "Okay" and removed his hand from her chin, Ran Jin was finally able to open his eyes.

Seeing that Ran Jin was about to leave without even looking in the mirror, Chi Yu was very curious: "You don't look at it either?"

Ran Jin said: "Your makeup must be very good, don't look at it."

Chiyu: "..."

When Chiyu and Ran Jin lived together, she was busy studying, making friends and rebelling. Most of the time, she only enjoyed the favor of her sister and Ran Jin. As a teenager, she rarely paid attention to the elders at home. .

Today, when Chi Yu suspended everything else and turned her attention back to the family she lived in, she discovered many details that she hadn't noticed before.

Maybe her sister is not the perfect sister she imagined, and Ran Jin also has many habits and behaviors that confuse her.

After finishing their makeup, Ran Jin and Chi Yu followed Dong Ling's secretary to Dong Ling's office.

Dong Ling is nearly 50 years old. He is thin and tall, and looks very energetic. Instead of wearing a rigid suit like Ran Jin, he wears a light gray sweater.Seeing the two of them coming in, he immediately stepped forward to shake hands without putting on airs.

When he shook hands with Chi Yu, his expression was serious and solemn, and Chi Yu immediately understood that he was mourning the death of his sister.

Then, in order to liven up the atmosphere, he specially praised Ran Jin's makeup: "I didn't expect it, I have seen Miss Ran so many times, this is the first time I have seen you with such gorgeous makeup. Hey, it's not gorgeous, it's actually quite appropriate, It's because the make-up was too light before. Is it because Xiao Chi gave me advice, and my complexion is much better."

I don't know if it's Dong Ling's outstanding observation ability, or he just hit the right button casually, Ran Jin smiled a little unnaturally, and then quickly got to the point.

Just as Chi Yu thought, Ran Jin came to Dong Ling to check the moon's orbit.

When the two were chatting, Dong Ling's eyes would fall on Chi Yu from time to time.

As Dong Ling, it is impossible not to know what happened between Chi Yu and Ran Jin some time ago, and naturally he also understands that Ran Jin's three orbits to the moon that are bound to be verified have nothing to do with Chi Yu.

Isn't that what Ran Jin came to talk to him about today?

Why is Xiao Chi always here?

Dong Ling probed the inside and outside of the words, but Ran Jin didn't hide it, and graciously told him the truth-in the future, Chi Yu was going to take over the Chi Group.

When Dong Ling heard the news, his thick eyebrows were raised for a long time before they were lowered.

"The Chi Group has undergone a lot of changes recently." Dong Ling sighed, looked at Ran Jin and said, "The handover of the old and the new will definitely be uncomfortable, so feel free to speak up if you have any difficulties, STAR and the Chi Group are interdependent. Those who grew up together are considered to be our own family.”

Dong Ling smiled and narrowed his eyes, making people think of the cunning fox in cartoons.

He went on to add: "However, we still have to have a good chat about the orbit of the moon." Dong Ling invited Ran Jin and Chi Yu to the restaurant on the top floor of the building for lunch, while admiring the blue sky and floating clouds, While talking about the price of the monthly orbit.

Leaving the building of STAR Group, and sitting back in the car, Chi Yu said unhappily: "Dong Ling is taking advantage of the fire to rob, right? What a sky-high price."

Regarding the price of lunar orbits, no one knows better than Chi Yu.

Ran Jin leaned on the car seat and pinched the bridge of her nose. She was very focused during the whole conversation with Dong Ling just now. While trying to get the best track price from Dong Ling, she also wanted to let Chi Yu Can understand the key points.

In fact, she didn't sleep well last night. She woke up with a severe headache in the morning. After taking a painkiller and suppressing it for a while, the pain started again.

Ran closed his eyes for a while, and when he opened them again, his eyelids piled up, and his beautiful double eyelids turned into multiple eyelids, looking a little sleepy and ignorant.

Ran Jin said: "His price is not too high, it is quite suitable."

Chi Yu was silent for a moment, and said, "The three lunar rails you bought before will be unsealed once the three-month accounting period is over. Calculate it inside and out, it is more appropriate to wait for three months."

Ran Jin looked at her in surprise.

"What?" Chi Yu made eye contact with her.

"I thought……"

Chi Yu said bluntly: "I originally planned to revise the benchmark value of the monthly track within these three months. By then, the track you bought has just finished the review, and it will go into the revised review again because of insufficient accuracy, and you can continue. Seal you for three months. After half a year, it will be a very difficult matter for you, even if you want to use all the strength of the entire group to remedy it, the board of directors will definitely not trouble you."

After listening to her words, Ran Jin was not angry, but rather relieved: "It's because I underestimated you, thinking that you were still a student in an ivory tower and didn't know much about business competition. I stumbled a lot. Until now, I have been busy with the lunar orbit."

"It was because you were not wary of me that I succeeded. If you were another person, your irises would not be copied."

Thinking of Ran Jin losing control when he saw Chi Yu covered in blood that night, the two fell into silence again.

But this time the silence was different.

The previous silent speech was an undercurrent of gunpowder smell at the end of the sentence, but this time's silence carried a soft fragrance that was secretly fermented.

It was rare for Ran Jin to speak first to break the silence: "The lipstick is a bit sweet."

"Yeah, this lipstick is a bit sweet."

"It's the scent of peaches." Ran Jin pursed his lips lightly and tasted it, "Xiao Yu, you have always liked peach flavors."

Having said that, Chi Yu found out that he did prefer the peach flavor.

Since she was a child, she has always liked to drink peach juice. When she buys everything, as long as there is a peach flavor, she will subconsciously choose the peach flavor.

"And your mental calculation is also very fast." Ran Jin continued, "It is more cost-effective to figure out which track to take so quickly."

Chi Yu heard that Ran Jin seemed to be in a good mood, and said with a smile, "Of course, I will eat this bowl of rice."

The more than a month since my sister passed away was longer than a year.

Chi Yu felt like he hadn't had a good chat with Ran Jin for a long, long time.

The way back was also very congested, and the driver drove slowly.

Ran Jin, who had relaxed his nerves in the warm compartment, was quickly caught by drowsiness, and fell asleep unconsciously.

Originally, she was sleeping on the back of the chair by herself, and when she turned a corner, she uncontrollably leaned towards Chi Yu's shoulder.

A little weight fell from Chi Yu's shoulders, which refreshed her who was also sleepy.

Ran Jin was breathing evenly and slept soundly. The driver glanced back and said, "Mr. Ran actually fell asleep. It's really rare. She used to be unable to fall asleep in the car no matter how sleepy she was."

Chi Yu didn't speak, and looked down at Ran Jin's long black hair, a few strands of which stuck to Chi Yu's smooth neck skin, making her itchy.

Ran Jin was defenseless against me.

Chi Yu thought, if she was the murderer who killed her sister, why did she treat me so lightly?

Last time I got her drunk so easily, I almost strangled her with my own hands, but now, she is leaning on my shoulder again, sleeping so peacefully.

Remembering that I always leaned on Ran Jin's lap and used her thigh as a pillow, Chi Yu didn't sleep at this time, so I opened my eyes and sat up straight, making Ran Jin more comfortable...

Ran Jin went to the meeting and didn't come back until seven o'clock in the evening. The entire eighteenth floor was working overtime.

Chi Yu went to ask Xiao Zhang, which takeaway restaurant is delicious.

Xiao Zhang and Xiao Yang sitting next to her immediately provided her with the best-known takeaway within a five-kilometer radius.

Xiao Yang excitedly said: "Mr. Chi, do you want to treat me?"

Chi Yu looked at their recommendation on the phone and said, "Yes, how many people are working overtime on the [-]th floor tonight?"

Xiao Yang became even more excited: "Does Xiao Chi always invite everyone to dinner?"

Chi Yu smiled sweetly at her and said "Yes".

This smile was like throwing a hand into Xiao Yang's heart lake. With a bang, his face turned red.

Chi Yu asked, "Do you have any taboos?"

Ran Jin’s ex-assistant Xiao Zhang, who secretly disliked Xiao Yang, said, “As long as the Sichuan food takeaway in the cafeteria is fine.”

Chi Yu was taken aback for a moment: "Why?"

She bought this takeaway for more than half of the time during this period. Except for the lack of appetite on the first day, she compared several other restaurants and found that the food was not as good as the Sichuan one, so she often bought it.

When Xiao Zhang was asked this question, he realized that he was talking too fast and said the wrong thing, so he immediately said "nothing".

Chi Yu felt her unnaturalness, put down her phone and asked.

Xiao Zhang was frightened by Chi Yuwen, so he could only tell the truth: "Mr. Ran...she doesn't like that restaurant very much, it must be too oily, and she will feel sick every time she eats it."

Chi Yu felt even more strange, every time she bought takeaway from that Sichuan cuisine, Ran Jin would eat all of it.

Recalling how Ran Jin tried to eat every time, Chi Yu's heart skipped a beat.

Ran Jin just came back from a meeting, was talking to the person next to him, and inadvertently glanced at Chi Yu, and found that Chi Yu was leaning against Xiao Zhang's desk, looking at him.

After Ran Jin said a word to the people around him, he walked over to Chi Yu.

"Come here." Chi Yu called her to the office.

"I don't know if you are not used to that Sichuan cuisine." Chi Yu said, "I really didn't mean to buy you something you don't like."

Ran Jin thought she was going to say something, and was very serious along the way, but he didn't expect it to be this matter.

Ran Jin smiled and said, "It's okay, I've been used to eating it for a while, and I don't think there's anything bad about it."

Chi Yu stared at her for a while, and recalled that he had never seen Ran Jin refuse her anything in these years.

No matter what you ask Ran Jin, she will only say "yes".

"Why." Chi Yu held the outer edges of her shoulders, "Why do you have to get used to it? You can tell me you don't like it."

Ran Jin was taken aback by Chi Yu's words, and suddenly, the pain of the glass cutting his mouth suddenly came out of his memory.

Along with that person's words.

"Everything I give you, everything this world gives you, you have to swallow. Does anyone care if you like it or not? You don't deserve to pick and choose anything. Remember this to me no matter what."

This sentence has been locked in Ran Jin's heart from beginning to end, and it has become the piece of glass in her memory that will always be stuck in her mouth.

Ran Jin's face turned blue, and he broke away from Chi Yu.

Chi Yu's wrist hurt from her sudden exertion, so she didn't hold her.

Ran Jin pushed open the door of the office and quickly disappeared into the corridor.
