visitor on iceberg

oh. "Xiang Qi said nothing more.

Ye Jia's heartbeat hadn't calmed down yet, so naturally she didn't speak again. The two of them entered the office area, each doing their own thing, and the daily routine of the day began.

Although Ye Jia's feelings for Xiang Qi are quite different, the relationship between the two has not changed at all, even more distant than before, because Ye Jia is always consciously not getting too close to Xiang Qi , he was afraid that his increasingly hot eyes would be exposed, and even more afraid that when the two approached, he would not be able to hold back his desire to touch each other.This taboo relationship came intensely and suddenly, and facing the person I like every day became a sweet and tormenting thing. The burden on Ye Jia's shoulders was already heavy, and now coupled with such repeated torment, He felt almost breathless.

Ye Jia has always cherished Xiang Qi in his heart. Even if he can't possess him as a lover, he can still worship and chase him as an idol. If there is no incident that night, his buried deepest thought may never be There will not be a day when people will know.

On Saturday afternoon, Ye Jia was in Mr. Deng's office to help him upload the students' final exam results. After receiving a phone call, Mr. Deng said to him: "The former students are having dinner tonight, and you just happen to be here. Why don't you Just drop by and come with me, lest you have to go to the cafeteria again."

Although it may not be as good as Xiang Qi, Mr. Deng has always liked Ye Jia very much and has always taken care of him a lot. Ye Jia also accepted his kindness this time and agreed without hesitation.

Ye Jia didn't know until there that Xiang Qi was there today. Including him and Mr. Deng, there were six people at the dinner table, but it seemed that the people who were supposed to come hadn't arrived yet.

The dishes were almost served, the person sitting opposite Ye Jia was named Xu Min, he said: "Zhao Yue really won't come today?"

Xiang Qi said: "He has something to do today, maybe he will come to the second game later."

Another person named Jiang Yun said: "Why don't you even have time for a meal? At the beginning, you were on good terms with each other, but you rarely returned to Binnan, and he didn't even come to welcome you. Besides, Mr. Deng is here today, so if he doesn't come, it's too shameful."

Mr. Deng snorted coldly, "Just like he used to be, when did he give me face? His face is too precious, I'm sorry!"

The remaining one named Cheng Xin'an smoothed things over and said, "We still have to eat without him. When he comes in the second round, we'll punish him with a few drinks."

The atmosphere during the dinner was good. Ye Jia listened carefully to the few of them chatting about the interesting things of the year and their respective experiences in these years. It was rare for him to have the opportunity to learn about Xiang Qi's past. This was also the first time he heard Xiang Qi talk so much. , However, he also found that a person named Zhao Yue could not be avoided in their discussions.

At this time, Elder Deng said again: "That guy is still hanging around in the city's middle court? Tsk, anyone can be a judge these days."

Ye Jia wanted to laugh when he heard that, seeing Mr. Deng's tone, he was sure that Zhao Yue should be that "hateful guy".

After eating and drinking enough to pay the bill, several people wanted to carry Mr. Deng to the teahouse non-stop, but Mr. Deng waved his hand and refused: "I won't go, I won't go, it's enough to be here tonight, I'm too old to bear it." , you guys go and play."

Jiang Yundao: "Why are you so old? You are still young. Besides, it's been a few years since you graduated. It's rare for our teachers and students to get together. How can we leave so soon? Maybe Zhao Yue will arrive later, and you don't want to train him a few more times. Sentence?" Then he was put on the car without any explanation.

Although tea tasting is the main thing in the teahouse, there are also various wines available. After drinking a cup of tea, Xiang Qi asked the waiter to bring up two bottles of red wine. It was inconvenient for several other people to drink because they all drove. Xiang Qi didn't care, "It's okay, I'm going to respect you today."

Xiang Qi didn't drink much at first, but Ye Jia noticed that he would take out his mobile phone to check the time from time to time, and then the wine glass became more and more full, and the frequency of toasting became more and more frequent, Cheng Xin'an saw that he didn't look right, so stopped him His cup persuaded: "You drink too much, drink less."

Xiang Qi pushed his hand away, "I'm very happy to be able to reunite with everyone."

It was almost ten o'clock, and Mr. Deng said, "Is that guy really not coming?" There was a bit of regret in his tone.

Jiang Yun took out his mobile phone, "I'll give him a call." But there was no one answering the call. He put the phone away and said, "No way, so busy? He didn't even answer the phone."

Xiang Qi poured herself a glass, lowered her head and couldn't see her face clearly, her voice was already drunk, and said sadly: "He won't come, never again."

Jiang Yun was stunned, "Huh? Did you fall out?"

Xu Min was the only person who knew about their relationship back then. He probably saw something and made a relief, "How could it be? He was talking nonsense when he was drunk."

Ye Jia could vaguely sense that the relationship between Xiang Qi and that Zhao Yue was unusual, but she didn't think much about it.Not long after Mr. Deng proposed to go first, several other people also decided to end today. Jiang Yun was in charge of sending Mr. Deng home. Cheng Xinan rushed home to coax the newborn child. Xiang Qi drank too much just now. Almost unconscious, Xu Min helped him up and sighed to himself: "I've known you for so many years, this is the first time I've seen you like this." He turned around and found Ye Jia still standing beside him, and asked : "Little friend, what do you do?"

Ye Jia said: "I'm still living in the school, it's close to the school, I can just walk back."

Xu Min nodded, "Then be careful on the road, I have to send this drunk home."

Ye Jia didn't plan to leave right away, but came over and supported Xiang Qi, "Let me help you get him into the car."

Xiang Qi's weight is not light, and Xu Min is really struggling to support him alone. He was overjoyed that Ye Jian offered to help, "Thank you so much."

"You're welcome." Ye Jia took Xiang Qi's arm and put it on his shoulder, then wrapped his arms around his waist.Because of this justifiable reason, Ye Jia was finally able to touch the person he liked for the first time, and hugged his body wantonly. He felt a sense of guilt that was hard to get rid of, but more of it was uncontrollable joy and satisfaction. , the two helped Xiang Qi downstairs, Xu Min said: "You look at him here, I will go to the parking lot and drive the car over."

There were only the two of them left on the spot, and Xiang Qi leaned half of her body on Ye Jia, with her head hanging on his neck. Ye Jia looked down at Xiang Qi, and saw that his cheeks were disfigured due to drunkenness. Turning into a seductive pink color, his eyes were safely closed, and he looked completely unguarded, without the slightest bit of coldness and arrogance that he was used to, and all the breath he exhaled fell on Ye Jia's neck.Ye Jia struggled to suppress himself, but his breathing became uncontrollably rapid. A bold idea appeared in his mind. He was ashamed of himself, but his heart was about to move. Now might be the only chance in his life. If Can it be forgiven for secretly begging for a commemoration of this fiery crush?

Ye Jia finally couldn't resist the temptation, and slowly leaned towards Qi's face, closed her eyes and kissed his lips.

Before he had time to experience the wonderful taste of lips touching, Xiang Qi, who had been drunk all the time, suddenly opened her eyes. Xiang Qi pushed him away forcefully, and said angrily, "Go away!"

Ye Jia was like a criminal who was caught on the spot, almost froze in fright, but he didn't have time to apologize, because Xiang Qi had already fallen backwards under the reaction force just now, Ye Jia hurried to support him, but was caught by Xiang Qi. Qi pushed away again, "Don't touch me!"

There was an undisguised disgust in these two sentences, which made Ye Jia's heart feel like a blizzard and icy cold.Yes, it was his own fault, but the sharp pain almost forced his tears.

Xiang Qi leaned back against the lamp post, panting with her eyes closed. When she came out just now, she was holding a small paper box tightly in her hand. Now the paper box fell to the ground, and a few small golden cakes rolled out of it. Come out, scattered at the feet of the two.

Xiang Qi's consciousness is still not clear, he probably can't understand the apology, and he can't understand anything else, but Ye Jia still opened his mouth, with a low and choked voice, "Senior, I like you so much, I love you so much. Maybe I've liked you since the first time I saw you."

Xiang Qi let out an uncomfortable hum from her throat, but she didn't give him any response.

At this time Xu Min drove to the side of the two, he got out of the car, and said to Ye Jia: "Do me a favor and I'll get him into the car."

Ye Jia didn't dare to touch Xiang Qi again, so she had no choice but to reject Xu Min, "The school dormitory is closed, I have to go back immediately." After speaking, he hurriedly picked up the cakes and put them into a paper box, then sealed the paper box tightly. Holding her in her arms, they ran away in a hurry.

Xu Min was the only one who was puzzled, "Didn't this kid be quite enthusiastic just now?".

The next day, Xiang Qi woke up with a headache. He hadn't been drunk for a long time, and he was so lazy that he didn't want to get up.Yesterday he asked Zhao Yue to go back to his alma mater. He confessed his love tactfully, but was tactfully rejected. Later, he met the guy surnamed Zhong in the supermarket. He didn't want to embarrass Zhao Yue, so he told him that he didn't have to go to the banquet at night, but God knows He wasn't as magnanimous as he had shown at the time, otherwise he wouldn't have been so lost after confirming that Zhao Yue really wouldn't come that he had to drink to relieve his worries.

Zhao Yue was invited to the house by the surname Zhong, and later he didn't answer his phone calls. What were the two of them doing last night?

Xiang Qi covered her eyes with her arms, no matter what they did, it had nothing to do with him anymore.

It's been five years since we separated, do I really like Zhao Yue that much?Xiang Qi couldn't tell the answer to this question either. Their first love was so beautiful that it took him five years to miss it. After time and memory beautify it, even every quarrel and every anger at the beginning was lost. It seems to have a sweet aura, if the first love is destined to only be used as a memory, it is really a pity, especially when he had expected to get back together, this regret was even stronger.

Before Xiang Qi got out of her depression, she vaguely remembered what happened last night.He drank too much last night, and his memory is not very clear, but he still left the impression of the most important part. The boy named Ye Jia helped him downstairs with Xu Min, and then secretly kissed him while he was drunk He, Ye Jia seemed to have said something to him later, but he really couldn't remember.

Thinking of this now, Xiang Qi felt a little surprised. The boy hadn't spoken a few words to him at all, and he didn't expect that he would always have such thoughts for him.Xiang Qi vaguely remembered that her reaction was quite rude at the time, and he was slightly annoyed, not because it might hurt Ye Jia's heart, but because his consistent upbringing prevented him from acting too recklessly, If I was sober at the time, I should have been able to deal with it more gracefully.

But forget it, the other party was the one who molested first, and there's nothing wrong with the young man getting a lesson.

Hello classmate ([-])

Xiang Qi came to the institute on time on Monday morning, and saw a box of cakes on her desk, and it was a honey cake sold in his favorite supermarket.Xiang Qi likes to eat sweets. Although it doesn't match his usual image, he is actually a person who can't move when he passes the dessert cabinet. However, except for his close family and friends, no one knows his hobby. So give him honey Who the hell is the cake guy?

Xiang Qi's curiosity is very limited. If no one comes to claim it, he will not take the initiative to ask. If that person really doesn't want to reveal his identity, he doesn't mind helping him become an unsung hero.

After what happened that night, it seemed that Ye Jia was the only one who was so anxious that she was fidgeting. Xiang Qi didn't even raise her head all morning, let alone look at him more. Could it be that Xiang Qi has no memory of what happened that night at all? , or does he clearly remember it, but doesn't take it to heart at all?

Ye Jia was really tormented, so she decided to tactfully try to find out what he said.

It was lunch break time, and the others went to have lunch in groups. Xiang Qi didn't intend to go out, but opened the box to taste the long-lost honey cake. At this time, Ye Jia came over and said softly: "So the senior likes Eat Xianglong's honey cake."

This boy actually took the initiative to talk to himself, is he planning to apologize?Xiang Qi turned her head to look at him and hummed.

Ye Jia clenched her fingers, tried her best to restrain the tension in her voice, and said, "I accidentally dropped your cake that night, so I bought a new box."

Just as Xiang Qi was about to put the cake in her mouth, she stopped immediately when she heard his words, "You bought this?"

Ye Jia nodded, "Yes."

By the way, it seems that there is such a thing. That afternoon, he and Zhao Yue went to buy a box of honey cakes, and they kept taking them with them when they ate, but the cakes disappeared after returning home. It seems that they pushed and shoved this kid. When the time was lost, he looked at the cake in his hand and asked, "Are you planning to use this to apologize?" Ye Jia's eyes widened when he heard this, and Xiang Qi said again, "Then you really did it right."

It turned out that Xiang Qi remembered what happened that night, and Ye Jia immediately apologized impulsively, speaking incoherently, "Senior, I'm sorry! I was obsessed with ghosts that night, so... I know it's disgusting, I shouldn't be right You did that kind of thing, but I just couldn't help it. I actually like you a lot, just... that kind of like. I, I shouldn't tell you this, I'm so sorry! I was wrong, that day, today That's right, I apologize to you, I...you can do whatever you want me to do..."

Xiang Qi was amused by his sincere and embarrassing appearance. He asked, "What do you like about me?"

Ye Jia lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him. She blushed and said, "I think you are good at everything. You make me feel...very yearning."

Longing for?There are quite a few people who have shown love to Xiang Qi, but this reason is quite new, so he asked again: "How longing?"

Ye Jia bravely expressed her thoughts, "That is, I want to be as good as you, and I want to get closer to you, talk to you more, and be friends with you."

Xiang Qi chuckled, "Being friends? So you kiss me while I'm drunk?"

Ye Jia was immediately poked at the sore spot, and lowered her head to apologize again: "I'm sorry."

"Okay, you don't need to feel too guilty. I didn't feel sick. Besides, I was rude to you that day. The two of us are even. I know what you mean. Don't mention this matter in the future." Qi shook the cake in front of Ye Jia's eyes, "By the way, thank you for the cake." After speaking, she took a bite of it, and seemed not to talk to him again.

"Ah." It was rare for Ye Jia to hear Xiang Qi say such a long sentence, and she just replied blankly, "No, you're welcome."

Is this the end of the matter?Xiang Qi wasn't angry, and she didn't pursue it. Quan pretended it hadn't happened. In the future, they might still maintain a normal relationship as colleagues. Although they weren't close, they wouldn't avoid it. This was already the best thing about this matter. result?But why did he still fall into deep disappointment? Could it be that Xiang Qi could really be friends with him and even accept his feelings?

Ye Jia felt that she should be content.

Mr. Deng's management has always been relatively loose. When the Spring Festival approached, many colleagues from other places took leave of absence and went home a few days in advance. By the day before New Year's Eve, there were almost no people left in the office. The old man dragged him to chat together. At this time, Ye Jia was the only one who was still busy. He couldn't take on the case now. After receiving the money, he felt that he shouldn't be idle, so he took a broom and a rag and started cleaning, saying that it was time to clean. Clean up to welcome the Spring Festival.

Mr. Deng looked at the back of Ye Jia cleaning the window, and sighed to Xiang Qi: "That kid is not easy. It is said that the children of the poor are already in charge of the family. His family's situation is not good. He has been working part-time since he entered university. I think he It was too hard, so I called him here to help. But he is also very good, no matter how hard he is outside, he has never delayed his studies. When he was in graduate school, he said that he didn’t want to study any more. He wanted to go out to work as soon as possible to reduce the burden on the family. I talked to him several times, and finally persuaded him to continue his studies. After learning the basics, I will teach him step by step, and he will be able to achieve great things in the future. He decided to work harder after studying in graduate school. He won’t even go home for the Spring Festival this year. Hey, sometimes I feel distressed when I look at it. He is such a small child. Woolen cloth."

Although they have been working together for a long time, this is the first time that Xiang Qi has known Ye Jia beyond her name. He also turned his head following Mr. Deng's gaze, only to see Ye Jia holding two rags in his hand , one dry and one wet, first wipe the glass with a wet rag, and then wipe it with a dry rag, so that the glass will be clean and will not leave watermarks. This kind of trivial experience in life must be obtained through repeated labor. , to match this, there should be a pair of rough hands.

Looking at Ye Jia's back, Xiang Qi found that he was quite tall, perhaps even taller than herself. He was wearing a half-worn down jacket with the sleeves pulled up a bit, revealing his strong wrist and a small arm. Just by looking at his appearance , that is a very sunny and hearty young man with some determination.

Although Xiang Qi has always been a little arrogant, he has always admired people who are down-to-earth and hardworking. Diligence is sometimes more valuable than talent, and that Ye Jia should have both.

Xiang Qi said to Mr. Deng: "He will be promising in the future, maybe he is the best student you have ever taught."

Although it's not time to get off work, Mr. Deng has already sent a message to let everyone go home for the New Year, and Xiang Qi has packed up his things and is about to go out. Just as he left his seat, Ye Jia, who had been hesitating just now, suddenly caught up and stopped him, "Senior. "

Xiang Qi turned her head, "Huh?"

The start of the long vacation meant that he would not see Xiang Qi for a week. Ye Jia just couldn't bear to watch him go out like this, but now that she really caught up with him, she didn't know what to say to him, so she had to think about it. The most unmistakable sentence is, "I wish you a happy Chinese New Year."

Ye Jia looked nervous, she was just paying homage to her early years, but she acted like a student waiting for her teacher to reprimand, Xiang Qi didn't know why she thought of the word perseverance from him just now, she was clearly just a trembling little girl Rabbit, if you tease him, will his eyes turn red?

But Xiang Qi obviously didn't have the time to play tricks on him. He remembered Mr. Deng's words, this kid had a hard time living, and in the end he fell in love with him, but no matter how miserable he was, he was not obligated to do anything for him , but if even this infatuation had to be hit, Xiang Qi still couldn't bear it, so he said to Ye Jia, "Thank you, and I wish you a happy Chinese New Year too."

Ye Jia's eyes brightened in an instant, and she couldn't help smiling, with a flattered look on her face, "Yes! The seniors have said so, I will definitely be very happy during the Spring Festival!"

Looking at him like this, Xiang Qi couldn't help but smile in her heart, this kid is really easy to satisfy.

The seven-day long holiday passed by in a flash, and when it came to the seventh day of the lunar new year, everyone had to come to work reluctantly with a wild heart.When Xiang Qi came to the office today, she found another box of honey cakes on her desk. After what happened last time, this time he immediately raised his head and looked in Ye Jia's direction. Ye Jia was also watching Looking at him, when the eyes met, he smiled shyly towards Qi.

During the lunch break, Xiang Qi pointed to the box of cakes and asked him, "What's the reason this time?"

Ye Jia was afraid that he would not accept it, so she said nervously, "This is... a New Year's gift. Last time I knew that seniors like to eat this, so I bought another box."

What is this, are you going to start using small favors to buy yourself off?But Xiang Qide admitted that he really couldn't stand the temptation. He recalled the wonderful taste of the honey cake. While thinking that it would be okay to accept it generously, he also thought of the famous saying-eat people's mouths are soft, but people's hands are short , he was quite entangled in his heart, and finally he thought of a way to achieve both ends, and said, "I'll give you the money for the cake."

Ye Jia's face darkened, and said: "I don't want it, if you want money, it's not a gift."

"I don't think you understand." Xiang Qi felt a little ridiculous at his straightforwardness, "Why should I accept your gift? If I wanted to eat cake, wouldn't I buy it myself?"

Xiang Qi was right, Ye Jia had no position to ask him to accept it, but he still felt aggrieved, and said, "I don't have any unreasonable intentions, I just hope to... treat you well, if you really don't want to If you want, throw it away."

Speaking of this, Xiang Qi felt as if she was bullying him. Although he had a cold personality, he was not a hard-hearted person. Besides, he really wanted to eat that box of cakes. He hesitated for a while, and finally Still compromised, "Okay, let's leave it here."

Hello classmate ([-])

After the Spring Festival, Valentine's Day came in a few days. Xiang Qi saw some chocolates on his table that day. After the previous two incidents, this time he looked at Ye Jia without thinking.

Ye Jia met his gaze and shook his head hastily. He was not so courageous to give Xiang Qi chocolates on Valentine's Day.

Xiao Liang, the accountant, is a cheerful young girl. At this time, she said to Xiang Qi: "Lawyer Xiang, happy Valentine's Day, I'll send you some chocolates."

Xiang Qi noticed that there were several identical pieces of chocolate on other people's tables, including Ye Jia's, and realized that the purpose of the chocolate was not to confess, so she accepted it generously, saying: "Then I You're welcome." There was a faint smile on his face.

Naturally, Xiang Qi's expression did not escape Ye Jia's eyes, and he felt sour when he saw it. At this time, Lawyer Liu, who was sitting next to Xiang Qi, also came. As soon as he saw the chocolate on the table, he jokingly asked, "Hey, where is this?" Who sent the chocolate, someone has a crush on me?"

Someone laughed and said: "Look at your beauty, this is given to everyone by Xiao Liang, not only you, everyone has a share."

Lawyer Liu said: "Look at Xiao Liang, he is so thoughtful, but unfortunately I have had a toothache these two days, and now I really can't eat this."

Hearing this, Xiang Qi turned her head towards Lawyer Liu, looking at the chocolate on his table out of the corner of her eye.

Lawyer Liu said again: "I appreciate Xiao Liang's kindness, but who will eat these pieces of chocolate for me?"

Xiang Qi immediately said: "Give it to me." She seemed afraid that someone would steal it from him.

There were a few more pieces of chocolate on Xiang Qi's table. He opened one and put it into his mouth contentedly, holding it with enjoyment. The taste was silky, rich and mellow. energy throughout the day.

Ye Jia caught something, hesitated for a moment, took her chocolate to Xiang Qi's side, and said, "Senior, I'll give you mine too."

Xiang Qi turned on the computer and was about to make a catalog of evidence, so she didn't have time to talk to him, "Let's put it there."

"Okay." Seeing that he didn't refuse, Ye Jia couldn't help feeling happy, and he asked again, "Senior, do you like sweets very much?"

Xiang Qi hummed without raising her head, and then added without a sense of humor, "But my teeth are very good."

"That's it." Ye Jia associated Xiang Qi, who had always been indifferent, with the sweet taste, and this contrast made him feel very cute.

Seeing that he was dawdling and still not leaving, Xiang Qi finally raised her head and glanced at him, "What else can I do?"

Ye Jia immediately waved his hand and said, "No more, senior, you are busy."

As a result, the next day, Xiang Qi found chocolates on her desk again, and today there were not only chocolates, but also several other exquisite and beautiful candies.Xiang Qi glanced at the desks of her colleagues around her, but she didn't see anything similar to her. What's going on this time?

Then Ye Jia came to him and said, "I went to choose some candies last night, I don't know if senior likes them or not."

Here it is again, Xiang Qi asked him: "Are you addicted to sending?"

Ye Jia smiled sheepishly, "I found out that senior seems to be happy after eating sweet things, so I want to give you some candies."

He saw all this, and Xiang Qi glanced at the pile of candies, and there were some that he hadn't tried before. His eyes lit up a little, but he still said: "It's not necessary, you can take it."

Although Ye Jia had expected that Xiang Qi would not accept it easily, but his tempting eyes did not escape Ye Jia's eyes when he saw the candy. He said: "I don't like candy, you should keep it, senior. Yesterday I I heard from the clerk that this kind of fruit candy is filled with fruit juice, and the juice inside will flow out after a bite, so the sweetness must be very delicious.”

Xiang Qi was quite moved when she heard that, and Ye Jia hurriedly continued, "And this, they call this Jin Ping Tang, it's the first time I've heard of it, and when I saw it, I thought it was so beautiful, and I thought the senior might Will like it too."

Xiang Qi looked at the small bag of yellow Jinpingtang, which was as beautiful as crystal star fragments. It should taste good, right?It says pineapple flavor on the bag, and pineapple is hard to find this season.Xiang Qi was struggling between refusing and accepting, when someone yelled: "Lawyer Xiang, I have a express mail from you!"

Xiang Qi immediately got up to pick up the express mail, and didn't say a word to Ye Jia, and naturally she didn't ask him to take the candy away.

Ye Jia took this as a tacit consent, maybe even Xiang Qi herself took it as a tacit consent, because when Ye Jia passed by his desk during the lunch break, she found that the candy package had already been opened.

Since then, some sweet and greasy snacks will appear on Xiang Qi's table every now and then, sometimes it is fruit candies of different flavors, sometimes it is a whole box of exquisite chocolates, Xiang Qi's favorite honey cake has also appeared several times .Once when Ye Jia passed by Xiang Qi, she found that he was concentrating on his work, with a serious and serious expression, wearing a well-fitting shirt and suit, the buttons were neatly buttoned, and his back was straight. It tasted a bit ascetic, but at this time he was holding a lollipop in his mouth, holding the stick and turning the candy in his mouth from time to time while thinking, looking like a sweet and childish little boy.

Ye Jia couldn't help laughing when she saw it, Xiang Qi like this was so cute.

Xiang Qi noticed that Ye Jia's gaze stayed on her for too long, and frowned and asked him, "What are you looking at?"

Ye Jia lowered her head, but the smile on her face became more obvious, "It's nothing."

Xiang Qi probably understood the reason for his smile, and took out the lollipop out of her mouth uncomfortably, and said, "This is quite delicious."

Ye Jia seemed to hear that she was being praised, "It's best if the senior likes it."

During the recent period, Xiang Qi inevitably pays more attention to Ye Jia. Ye Jia is diligent and cheerful, and has a good popularity and reputation in the institute. Probably because of his experience, he is better than his peers in dealing with people He is much more mature and decent, but even so, Xiang Qi never included him in the range of lovers' choice. There is no other reason, but because Ye Jia is still too young, a young man who hasn't even graduated from college, It can only be called a child, right?

In mid-March, the firm received an assignment to assign a lawyer to defend a felon who was unable to hire a defender. Elder Deng handed over the assignment to Xiang Qi. I still asked myself to do my best to do my job well, and went to the Municipal Intermediate People's Court to review the papers the next day.

This case was in charge of the Second Criminal Tribunal. Xiang Qi couldn't help slowing down when he approached the office of the Second Criminal Tribunal. He knew that he would meet Zhao Yue here, and Zhao Yue was also a little surprised when he saw Xiang Qi. One is the organizer and the other is the defender. Both of them have some unfinished emotions. After the emotions, Zhao Yue said with a bit of pretentious embarrassment on his face, "This case seems a bit tricky."

Seeing that the case file was only two volumes and not very thick, Xiang Qi asked, "How can it be a difficult case with two such thin volumes?"

Zhao Yue laughed and said, "Get a copy of the indictment first."

When Xiang Qi took it, she suddenly thought of a certain possibility, "Wait, maybe..." He glanced to the end, and sure enough, he saw Zhong Ling's name. He clicked his tongue and stuffed the copy of the indictment into it with a serious face. in the bag.

Zhao Yue said with a dry smile: "Hehehe, I said it's a bit tricky, but if you really don't want to take this case, you can go back and discuss it with the office, anyway..."

Xiang Qi interrupted him, "What am I not willing to do? I have taken this case."

Zhao Yue wiped his sweat, "Okay, okay, hard work to the barrister."

Looking at him like this, Xiang Qi couldn't help laughing, "Okay, let me copy the file, can you charge a lower fee, the agency fee for this case is very small."

Zhao Yue said angrily: "Do you still care about this little money?" Then he pointed at Xiao Xiong, "Make a photocopy of five yuan a piece, and kill him!"

The case is finally scheduled to open in April. During the trial, Xiang Qi and Zhong Ling will inevitably confront each other again. After the court closed, Xiang Qi took advantage of the opportunity to hand over Zhao Yue's defense statement, and maliciously created a confrontation with Zhao Yue in front of Zhong Ling. After seeing Zhong Ling's gloomy face, Xiang Qi finally left the trial court satisfied.

Xiang Qi came out of the court. The April spring outside was just right, and his mood finally became brighter. He said goodbye to Zhao Yue after the court closed just now. With their many years of tacit understanding, Zhao Yue will definitely understand this. The meaning of the two words.If Xiang Qi was still brooding over Zhong Ling's appearance and Zhao Yue's choice before, then at that moment just now, he finally let go of these things completely.

Because of his deliberate provocation just now, Zhong Ling might be going to get into trouble with Zhao Yue today, but since he got his former lover, shouldn't he bear some malice from his former rival?Xiang Qi curled the corners of her mouth happily, and felt that she was a bit naive, she reached into her pocket, and found a peach-flavored soft candy, which was given to him by Ye Jia, and Xiang Qi put the candy in her mouth Li, returned to the office amidst the sweet and pure taste.

At this time, it was already past the off-duty time, Ye Jia saw Xiang Qi came back and asked, "Senior, is the court session going well today?"
