Substitutes should also love their jobs and work hard

"I know." Li Li said with difficulty, he didn't know what else he could say besides this sentence.

Jiang Jingchi's mother was sitting on the sofa with an elegant posture, "Just know, you go and prepare me a cup of coffee." She said it as a matter of course, and added casually at the end, "Since you have followed Jiang Jingchi, you must learn the rules and address yourself. I am Mrs. Jiang."

"Okay, Mrs. Jiang." After saying this, Li Li fled into the kitchen as if in a hurry.

For the convenience of Mrs. Zhang, Jiang Jingchi designed the closed kitchen and the open bar in the same space. In addition, Jiang Jingchi rarely drinks coffee on weekdays, and the coffee beans at home have also been used up. Li Li can only use imported coffee. Powder for brewing.

"Madam Jiang, please take it easy." Li Li originally wanted to put the coffee on the coffee table, but Madam Jiang had already reached out to take it, and the height of the sofa was extremely low, so Li Li could only kneel down and pass the coffee to the other party .

This is a cup of espresso that must be brewed with boiling water above 95 degrees. If the water temperature is too low, the extraction will be insufficient and the coffee will be acidic.

In order to ensure the flavor of the coffee, or perhaps because he wanted to please Jiang Jingchi's mother, Li Li prepared it carefully, using freshly boiled water.

He watched Mrs. Jiang take a sip and was about to get up, but the other party suddenly spilled coffee on his hand. The incident happened so suddenly that Li Li had no time to dodge.

That cup of scalding coffee was poured directly into Li Li's hand, and a large part of it was spilled down his hand and onto his legs.Li Li's hand injury is still not fully healed.For a short period of time, Li Li's eyes were almost completely black.It hurts so much it hurts too much.

Because the air conditioner was turned on in the house, Li Li was wearing very thin clothes, and the hot water easily broke through the defense line of his clothes. He even smelled the strange aroma of scalded meat from his body, so he tried not to cry out. When he came out, he couldn't help but groan.

"I'm sorry, the coffee is too hot. I didn't hold it. It's all your fault. Why did you let it cool down before handing it to me? Are you trying to scald me to death? Luckily, it spilled on you." Mrs. Jiang There was no sincerity in his embarrassment, the other party seemed to really not care about Li Li at all, and began to criticize halfway through the speech.

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Jiang, I'll prepare another cup for you." Li Li gritted his teeth and gritted his teeth. He didn't understand why Jiang Jingchi's mother was so hostile to him. He was obviously just a small character. Didn't Jiang Jingchi have other subordinates and lovers in the past?But he couldn't refuse her, after all, she was Jiang Jingchi's mother, and Jiang Jingchi would definitely care about her feelings.And Li Li comforted himself that he didn't want to lose his job yet.

When Li Li got up, he could feel the fabric pulling the flesh on his leg, but he had no other feeling except endless numb pain. He almost exhausted his strength to remake a cup of coffee, but when he walked into the living room, There was no one on the sofa, and Mrs. Jiang left.

Li Li walked to the sofa, his pace was very slow.He put the sofa on the coffee table and took out the medicine box from the storage compartment of the sofa.

Originally, this was the place where the tea leaves were kept. It was the first time Li Li came here, and Jiang Jingchi took out the tea leaves as if by magic, and he foolishly brewed cup after cup for him.Since his hand was injured, Jiang Jingchi told Li Li about this secret base, and replaced the tea leaves inside with a medicine box, so that Li Li could change the medicine.

The scald ointment in the medicine box was originally just Jiang Jingchi worried that Li Li would be scalded by hot oil while cooking, but it came in handy at this time.

Li Li calmly lifted his trousers and applied the ointment. It took him a while to realize that the finger he used happened to be cut by the string, and it had just been washed by hot water, and a layer of blisters had formed.A few pieces of skin on the legs have already stuck to the rolled-up trousers, and there are large patches of red mixed with high raised blisters in front of my eyes.

He seemed to be finally aware of his pain.

The pain he endured just now broke out in an instant, and tears fell down in big drops. He didn't care whether the tears would make the injury worse, but he just bit his wrist which was still intact. whimper.

In fact, Li Li was the only one in the whole house, even if he cried hoarsely, he would not be disturbed, but he stubbornly refused to make a sound, as if he was afraid of disturbing his remaining dignity.

He's just Jiang Jingchi's subordinate, he doesn't get angry when he works part-time, he has to pay a price to make money, why is he sad?Li Li didn't understand, he thought maybe he was in too much pain and tired, maybe it would be better to sleep.He let go of the bloody wrist that had been bitten by him, and took a bath in a daze. He remembered that Jiang Jingchi had said that he didn't want him to dirty his bed.However, he was in so much pain that he wanted to fall asleep quickly, so he just scribbled on his body and hair, and tucked himself into the bed.

On the other hand, Jiang Jingchi originally planned to go home and talk to Li Li, but the board of directors colluded to trip him up before the new year, he knew that the other party would not do anything that crossed the line, but he had to pretend , giving the other party the illusion that they are still in control.

And it will soon be New Year's Eve, every New Year's Eve he has to go back to the old house to celebrate the New Year, even if he is unwilling to give that so-called home, to those so-called relatives.But he is not strong enough to ignore the constraints of those "relatives", he still has something to get.

Jiang Jingchi thought of his confused mood and Li Li's expression of pretending to be asleep, so he simply gave up. He wanted to talk to Li Li after he sorted himself out.

After finally dealing with the board of directors, Jiang Jingchi drove back to the old house.

Jiang’s custom is to be at home on the eve of New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Eve, because Mr. Jiang believes that business should not be discussed during the New Year’s Eve, but everyone gathers together for the purpose of benefiting each other, so they changed to discuss business on the day before New Year’s Eve. Sneer, there is no silver 300 taels here.

All the people in the house have come, and everyone is pushing glasses to change glasses, they seem to be drunk, but their eyes are clearer and clearer.In this kind of occasion, the only thing he wants to do is to get drunk and benefit others. There is absolutely no reason to let others take advantage of him. He is clearly connected by blood, but he only has calculations and suspicions.

Seeing that Jiang Jing arrived late, the crowd divided into three factions. One faction rushed forward. These were relatives who were not close to the Jiang family. In order to get more, they chose to curry favor with the Jiang family's current ruler. People, one faction directly challenged Jiang Jingchi sarcastically, "The Jiang family has really changed, so the illegitimate son who is not even a concubine can come to the family banquet!"

"Can I not bother my third brother, at least an illegitimate child like me can control the amount of dividends you get at the end of the year, unlike you who can only live on your mother's pocket money." Li Li retorted unceremoniously.

The third brother's mother is the serious mistress, and she is even more clever at turning his second uncle's obsession into obsession. She drives the first wife out of the house, and takes the useless illegitimate son, Jiu, to occupy the magpie's nest and enter the house.Such an absurd scene did not cause any turmoil in the Jiang family, and it was ridiculous that everyone took it for granted just because the original partner did not give birth to a son.

"Oh really, third son, why do you expose your scars?" The person who made things difficult for him in the boardroom in the afternoon now took the initiative to speak up for Jiang Jingchi.

This is the third faction, the vassals of Jiang Jingchi's father. They just want to control Jiang Jingchi, but they don't want anyone other than Dafang to have the upper hand.

In their eyes, Jiang Jingchi's life experience is indeed worthy of criticism. His mother died before he was taken into the Jiang family, which means that he can only be crucified as an illegitimate child forever, but Dafang, that is, Jiang Jingchi The father didn't have a second child, so they could only help Jiang Jingchi to take office, and tried their best to suppress the second and third families who were about to move.

A group of people with different ideas, Jiang Jingchi didn't bother to talk to him at all, he just walked through the crowd and went upstairs, he didn't take pride in trying to please others, and he didn't care about criticism from others, only the power in his hands was the real thing, and that boy, but For some reason, he thought of Li Li, who always performed clumsily in front of him, but it was the first time he saw the sincere Li Li, and he missed him a little bit.

Jiang Jingchi first called the landline at home, remembering that Aunt Zhang had gone back for the New Year, so he called Li Li directly.

"Give you my plain waiting and waiting, and give you my vigorous longing and tenderness." The screen of the phone lights up, and on it is Mr. Jiang who is doing business, but the ringtone of the phone rings from an unknown day. Jiang Jing changed late.

Li Li had never set up a special call, and it took a long time to try clumsily that day before he succeeded. This is a song he likes very much, and he wants to use it as the ringtone of a very important person.Li Li thinks that Jiang Jingchi is very good, besides, Jiang Jingchi who pays him is very important.

Li Li, who answered every time in seconds, didn't answer the phone until Jiang Jingchi's cell phone automatically hung up. He thought it was indeed late now, and Li Li might have fallen asleep, wandering in a sweet dreamland, so it was better not to disturb him. Otherwise, the other party would call him Mr. Jiang respectfully but couldn't hide his resentment.

Jiang Jing thought to himself, tomorrow night he must deal with those people quickly, and then go to see Li Li, he suddenly wanted to see Li Li very much.

The next morning, Jiang Jingchi got dressed and went downstairs.The Jiang family is lively all day long, swarming to do their filial piety in front of the old man of the Jiang family. The old man is already in his seventies. The most important thing is resources, how can the old man not have something hidden.

Jiang Jingchi looked at the scene of kindness and filial piety in front of him coldly, and only thought it was funny. He just wanted to be clean, but someone didn't like him.

His nominal mother was well dressed, walking towards him with her husband on her arm, Jiang Jingchi turned around and wanted to leave.

"Jiang Jingchi, stop for me, do you still have my father in your eyes?"

Jiang Jingchi stopped in his tracks, turned around, "Of course I know best if you are there." His tone was gentle, without any sense of disrespect, but the irony in his words was obvious.

"Master, don't be angry. Xiao Chi is still young, and it's normal to be ignorant. Let's take him to the old man to fulfill his filial piety." His "kind" mother gently advised his father, but it seemed that he was not a thing.

Jiang Jingchi didn't even bother to watch them perform this red-white face drama, and walked towards the parking lot.

"Jiang Jingchi, where are you going? Find your little lover, okay, you have learned how to play with men." Jiang's father looked at his son who did not take himself seriously, and couldn't help scolding him angrily.

Jiang Jingchi originally just wanted to leave the old house and meet his own mother who died early as usual, he didn't plan to meet Li Li so early.

"How do you know? You went to meet him!" Father Jiang's words made Jiang Jingchi unable to keep calm.

"Hmph, if your mother hadn't told me, I would have been kept in the dark!" Jiang's father thought that Jiang Jingchi was discovered by his unrefined male lover, and he was ashamed and angry.

A bad premonition welled up in his heart, Jiang Jingchi blocked all scolding and abuse from the outside world, and started the car engine.

Jiang's father was still yelling through the back window of the car, and the group of relatives heard the commotion and came out with their own thoughts. His mother was probably acting again, and the "loyal ministers" were helping him clean up the mess.

If Jiang Jingchi was rational, he shouldn't have left the old house at this time, but at this moment rationality can no longer dominate his brain, he doesn't want to weigh the pros and cons anymore, his heart tells him that Li Li needs him very much.

[The author has something to say: Hurry up and see your heart clearly.Obviously Jiang Jingchi and Li Li are the people in this world who need each other the most and are needed by each other the most. 】
