Creation's grace

On the day Ran Jin came back, Chi Yu was listening to Manager Xu's meeting with the Planning Department, and volunteered to take the minutes of the meeting.

Through the glass door of the meeting room, Ran Jin watched as Chi Yu put his long hair behind his head, his makeup was as impeccable as ever, energetic, shrewd and capable.

Ran Jin stared at Chi Yu silently, while Chi Yu was staring at the computer engrossed.

She typed very fast, and she had a recording device at hand to record all the speeches in the minutes of the meeting. She could proofread the record against the recording later, and listen to it again to digest and absorb anything she didn't understand.

After watching Chi Yu for a while, Ran Jin returned to the office and poured himself a cup of coffee.

After drinking coffee, my head started to hurt again, and the feeling of heart palpitations repeated.

Since returning from her first 400-meter dive on this business trip, she has been in poor condition.

The original one-week business trip was also shortened to three days.

After coming back, Ran Jin rested in the apartment for half a day, and was almost lethargic. He woke up this morning and felt better. He couldn't worry about things in the company, so he came to the company after taking some medicine.

[You'd better really worry about the company, you obviously worry about the little bastard, okay? 】

Ran Jin sat in the office and received a WeChat message from Lu Siqing who came back half an hour later.

Lu Siqing's voice was directly released, and Ran Jin glanced at the door to make sure that Chi Yu didn't come in at this moment, turned on the computer to log in to the mailbox, and said to Lu Siqing while checking the email:

"I left too suddenly at the time, and I left a lot of work on her. She must be very busy these days."

After sending out the WeChat message, Ran Jin thought of the impulsiveness when he left that day, and the worry of tossing and tossing after leaving, he couldn't help laughing at himself, he wasn't as decisive as he imagined.

Others can afford it but can't let it go, but she can't afford it and can't let it go.

There was a sound of hurried footsteps in the corridor, Ran Jin knew that it was Chi Yu who was coming, he suddenly became nervous, and the corners of his mouth tensed up.

"You're back?"

When Chi Yu held the computer in his hand and pushed open the office door, he swept away the coldness in the conference room just now, his beautiful eyes were bright and affectionate, but now there was a layer of undisguised surprise.

After being glanced at by her, Ran Jin could only feel his cheeks getting hot.

"Well, I'm back." Ran Jin replied with a faint smile, habitually turning his eyes away quickly.

Chi Yu put down the computer, didn't sit back in his chair, walked up to Ran Jin and asked her, "Where did you go on a business trip? There is no news at all. As your assistant, I don't know at all."

Ran Jin smelled the perfume on her body, it was not irritating or greasy, and couldn't help secretly increasing the frequency of breathing.

"Something happened suddenly to a project, and I didn't have time to tell you."

"Oh? What project requires you to do it yourself, and you are in such a hurry."

Chi Yu didn't want her to answer, she knew what Ran Jin was going to say, so she would say it directly when she answered just now, and only vaguely summarized it with "one item", indicating that she didn't want to make it clear.

So Chi Yu himself answered the second half of the sentence: "I thought you were angry with me."

"Ok?"

Ran Jin turned his head and saw that Chi Yu's arms were crossed in front of her chest, and her waist was leaning against the edge of the chair back, very close to her shoulders.

The corner of the shirt was tucked into the trousers, and through a thin white shirt, the slender waist was fully displayed.

Ran Jin glanced at it, then turned his head back unnaturally, pretending to be busy with his hands, and acted casually.

"How could I be angry with you?" Ran Jin stared at the computer screen, but no words could enter her mind, "It's true that it happened suddenly, it was already midnight when I decided to leave, and I didn't want to disturb you, So I didn't tell you. The mobile phone signal in that place is not very good, so it's inconvenient to contact, so..."

Chi Yu interrupted her explanation: "It's fine if you don't get angry with me. You hide everything in your heart, so that I don't know what to say. It will step on your minefield. If I say something wrong in the future, you can tell me directly. I'm ready."

Ran Jin thought that after so many days of leaving silently, Chi Yu would force her to ask her where she had been secretly when she came back.

As a result, Chiyu didn't do this, and there was a tendency to ease the relationship in his words.

Ran Jin knew that it was because she brought Chi Yu into the Chi Group during this period of time and taught her unreservedly, that's why she took the initiative to ease the tense relationship.

In the final analysis, the most important contradiction between them has not been completely eliminated.

Even if the current relationship is much better than before, it doesn't mean that there will be no changes in the future.

Ran Jin's thoughts were a little wandering, and when Chi Yu left, he patted her on the shoulder to remind her: "The email you read for 5 minutes is a replied email."

Ran Jin's eyes rounded, and he felt embarrassed.

Chi Yu sat on his chair, saw that Ran Jin quit the email page calmly, and opened an unread one again.

Chi Yu, who saw everything in his eyes, couldn't help but put a smile on his lips.

After working all day, Ran Jin found that his sudden departure did not make Chi Yu flustered.

Chi Yu not only completed all the work of the assistant, but also helped her sort out the priorities, so that she could quickly deal with the most important things as soon as she returned to the company.

Thanks to the late encounter, today is quite easy.

It was already dark outside the window, and the dense rain had drenched the entire city.

Because the sound insulation effect of the windows is so good, Chi Yu, who was working hard, didn't realize when it was raining so hard outside.

Today she thought she was too tired so she didn't drive and took a taxi.

It's raining heavily and there's an evening rush hour, so there's no way a car can be called.

When Chi Yu was about to call Steward Chen to pick him up, Ran Jin said, "I'll take you back."

"Okay!"

Sitting in the co-pilot of Ran Jin's car, Chi Yu felt a familiar sense of security.

When Ran Jin drove steadily into the traffic on a rainy night, Chi Yu discovered that what made her comfortable was not just the co-pilot position where Ran Jin had sat for countless times, but also because the entire car was filled with familiar smells.

"Eat chocolate? Pad your stomach."

While waiting for the red light, Ran Jin took out a box of unopened chocolates from the trunk of the car and handed it to Chi Yu.

Ran Jin said: "Looking at the current road conditions, it may take more than an hour to get home late. I was too negligent. I should have prepared dinner for you when I got on the bus."

"Don't bother, I like this brand of chocolate."

The familiar pampering made Chi Yu's whole body relax. Hearing Chi Yu's raised voice and the phrase "I like to eat", Ran Jin couldn't help but smile a little.

Chi Yu brought the chocolate over, opened the package, ate one, and kept his eyes fixed on the right side of the center console, where there was a small car fragrance.

The shape of this fragrance is a small peach, white and red inside, and the pink on the tip of the small peach is very real and lovely.

The flavor of peaches is soft and sweet, so Chiyu liked them very much back then. Unfortunately, before he was old enough to take the driver's license test, he bought a bunch of them and insisted on putting them in the car of his sister and Ran Jin.

Whether it's chocolate or car aromatherapy, they are all Chi Yu's favourites.

This inevitably reminded her that the dishes that Ran Jin likes almost match her taste.

"Sister Ran." Chi Yu said while eating chocolate, "This fragrance was discontinued two years ago, and I couldn't find it in many places. I didn't expect you to still use it."

When the light turned green, Ran Jin slowly turned on the accelerator, glanced at Xiao Taozi, and said, "I still have it, I'll get it for you later."

Chi Yu ate the second chocolate, and tentatively asked, "Did you buy a lot?"

"Hmm..." Ran Jin looked at the wipers tirelessly to wipe off the gurgling rain on the windshield, and told the truth, "I don't want to change it after I'm used to it, and I bought more when I heard it was going to be discontinued. "

"It's rare."

"Ok?"

"You'll have something you like, too."

Ran Jin's expression was unnatural for a moment, which was vaguely captured by Chi Yu in the dimly lit car.

There are too many cars to run at all.

Neither of the people in the car was in a hurry.

It's just that it's already past one o'clock for dinner. Chi Yu remembered that she bought Ran Jin a Kung Pao Chicken at noon. I haven't lost it yet, I want to put it in the refrigerator and eat it tomorrow.

The leftovers were stuffed directly into the trash can by Chi Yu.

I didn't eat anything at noon, and I lasted until this o'clock, only thinking about others.

"Are you hungry too, do you want some chocolate too?" Chi Yu asked Ran Jin.

"Okay, wait for the next red light..."

Before Ran Jin finished speaking, Chi Yu handed a piece of unwrapped chocolate to her lips: "Open your mouth."

When she was sitting in Ran Jin's co-pilot before, she often fed Ran Jin all kinds of things, from snacks to fruits, as long as she was eating, there would be no shortage of Ran Jin's portion.

It was probably because Chi Yu had figured out something in the past few days, and also because of Ran Jin's sudden departure, the emotions she couldn't express were brewing in her heart for several days.

Ran Jin finally came back today, and Chi Yu had to admit that because seeing Ran Jin, his boring and dull mood quickly improved.

At this moment, the act of feeding Ran Jin to eat chocolate, even though she knew something was wrong, the sense of transgression still tempted her to do so.

Ran Jin was taken aback for a moment, and pressed the horn all of a sudden, with a bang, the chocolate that Chi Yu was pinching was almost frightened away.

"Thank you..." Ran Jin quickly swallowed the chocolate and thanked vaguely.

Because she was driving, she didn't control her strength enough to eat the chocolate. While eating the chocolate, her hot and soft lips touched Chi Yu's fingertips.

"..." Ran Jin could only pretend that nothing happened.

The fudge-like touch quickly spread to Chi Yu's heart.

With some of Ran Jin's lipstick on her fingertips, she realized that Ran Jin had actually put on cherry pink lipstick, which was translucent and natural, reducing her age by several years.

"Is it delicious?" Chi Yu wanted to ask her a few more questions.

"It's delicious!" The chocolate ball propped up Ran Jin's face in a small semicircular ups and downs, and he emphasized his tone with sincerity, as if he was afraid that Chi Yu would not believe it.

I thought that this winter rain would last all night, and the rain would start to decrease when the overhead rain fell.

"Thank you, Sister Ran, for sending me off. See you tomorrow."

Chi Yu opened the door and got out of the car, a gust of cold air poured in from the outside, making Ran Jin, who had ignored the discomfort the whole time, shudder again with goose bumps.

"Xiao Yu." Ran Jin called her to stop, Chi Yu turned her head, a few strands of her coiled hair were blown up by the wind, and even her windbreaker opened in the direction of Ran Jin, as if to surround her .

"If you like chocolate, bring it with you. There shouldn't be any at home." Ran Jin handed the chocolate to Chi Yu.

"Not really, so I'll take it." Chi Yu took the chocolate and went into the yard. Ran Jin's car was still parked at the door, so he didn't leave immediately.

She wanted to watch Chi Yu enter the house safely.

Chi Yu's tall figure disappeared into the yard, and the orange light in the living room had a warm power that penetrated all the cold in winter nights.

It's great that Xiaoyu is in this safe and warm place.

Ran Canban pressed the back of his finger on the painful eyelids, he seemed to be a little bit hot, his whole body was chilly, and he was dizzy and nauseous.

Probably because I dived too frequently a few days ago, I felt a little unwell.

She grabbed two mints and threw them into her mouth, wanting to refresh herself with mints and go back to the apartment with energy.

Just as she was about to drive, Chi Yu ran out of the house again, and Aunt Su followed behind her.

"What's the matter? Did you forget anything?" Seeing her flustered, Ran Jin opened the car window and asked her.

Chi Yu was full of anxiety: "Lulu is lost!"

Ran Jin: "Lost Lulu? How did you lose it?"

No wonder Ran Jin found it strange, and Chi Yu couldn't understand it either.

Lulu is not young anymore, although she usually looks more lively than other old cats, and likes to jump up and down.

But after all, a cat is a very territorial animal. Usually, it will not leave its familiar territory. If there is any disturbance outside, it will hide in horror and will not come out for a long time.

Aunt Su clasped her hands together, pressing a big mountain between her eyebrows: "Isn't there something wrong with our fresh air system? I'll ask the people from the property management to come over and take a look. Today, two people from the property management came to carry tools and beat them. I guess Lulu was startled by the movement. Usually, it would hide when people came to the house, so I didn’t remember to close the door, and Lulu probably ran out at that time.”

There is also a spacious attic on the upper and lower floors of Chi's villa, a large front and back yard, and an area of ​​several hundred square meters. It is usually difficult for Aunt Su to find Lulu, let alone Lulu, a claustrophobic space enthusiast, who ran out while no one was looking. up.

Chi Yu asked her, "What time did it happen?"

Aunt Su said: "The property owner came at two or three o'clock in the afternoon."

Based on this calculation, Lulu has been lost for several hours.

Chi Yu's face was gloomy, with anxious emotions all over his face.

Ran Jin and Aunt Su both know how precious Chi Yu is to Lu Lu.

During the period from elementary school to junior high school, Ran Jin hadn't arrived at Chi's house yet, and Chi Li was so busy that he could hardly see anyone. It was Lu Lu who accompanied Chi Yu to survive.

Its empathy and obedience resolved Chi Yu's loneliness when she was young.

For Chiyu, Lulu is not only a cat, but also an extremely important family member. Chiyu has always regarded her as her younger sister.

Not long after her sister passed away, Lulu disappeared again. Given her age and the length of time she had lived in a human family, she might have lost the ability to survive in the wild.

Once missing, it is very likely that they will not survive.

It is self-evident what a blow this was to Chi Yu.

"Don't worry." Ran Jin held Chi Yu's arm, "I'll notify the property right away and let the property search together. The outer wall of the community is very high, so Lulu may not be able to jump out. If you go out through the gate, the property will Maybe people will see it. Aunt Su, ask your family members to go out and look for it together, and ask the property to keep an eye on the surveillance to see if you can take a picture of Lulu."

Aunt Su said: "Okay! I'll go right away!"

Ran Jin and Chi Yu analyzed: "Lulu wandered outside for a period of time a long time ago, even if she stayed at home for more than ten years, she should still have the most basic ability to hide her whereabouts. She is not familiar with the situation outside. The possible situation is to find a safe and secret place to hide yourself. Let's split up and look in the green belt. Lulu is probably inside. Don't worry, with me here, I will definitely bring you Lulu back."

Chi Yu's originally chaotic and anxious emotions were calmed down by Ran Jin's extremely logical arrangement.

She might not be able to believe what other people said, but Ran Jin said that if she could bring Lulu back, she would definitely do it.

"Okay, I'll go to the flower garden to the west to look for it first." Chi Yu said, "Go to the artificial lake to the east and have a look. Take your phone and let each other know if you find Lulu."

"Well, be careful, it just rained and the road is slippery." Ran Jin reminded.

"Okay." Chi Yu looked back under the dim night light, and said to Ran Jin, "You too."
