The straw bag beauty is on the rise

If time could be turned back, Li Man really wanted to take back what she said just now.

But unfortunately, it cannot be reversed.

So at this moment, she could only stand there stiffly, enduring the torment of the awkward atmosphere.

After hearing Li Man's question, Song Chuji was obviously taken aback for a moment, then frowned slightly, "Su Fuxia? Why did you ask her."

Li Man touched the tip of her nose: "Ah, I just asked casually, sorry, you, if you feel offended, can you pretend that I didn't say anything just now?"

Song Chuji looked at Li Man, but he didn't feel angry, but comforted Li Man, "Don't be nervous, I'm not angry, and I don't mean to blame you."

She paused, thinking about her words, "I just want to know why you have this doubt."

Li Man looked at Song Chuji's expression, and found that the other party was indeed as calm as she said, so she breathed a sigh of relief, her tense emotions eased, replaced by a little curiosity.

She said: "Because I feel that the atmosphere between Su Fuxia and you is not right. And there is..."

Li Man pointed her fingers together: "I've heard some gossip or something."

She coughed softly, "That's right, you understand."

Song Chuji probably understood what she meant by "gossip" and couldn't help but chuckle.

"Those."

She thought about how to answer Li Man.

There is nothing to hide about the answer to this question, not to mention that the person who asked the question was Li Man, Song Chuji was even less angry.

"Indeed, I did." She replied briefly.

Li Man opened her eyes wide and blinked in surprise.

"Then does she want to continue pursuing you now?"

Song Chuji didn't show any evasion, and said bluntly: "It doesn't matter what her motivation is. I have already rejected her."

Li Man nodded slowly.

Song Chuji looked at her like this and smiled slightly, "Is there anything else you want to ask?"

Li Man immediately shook her head.

But after shaking it, she thought that she still had something to ask, but just now in order to avoid this possibly sharp topic, she brought up Su Fuxia's matter all of a sudden.

Seeing Li Man's hesitant attitude, Song Chuji said: "If there is anything else, just ask."

Li Man lowered her eyes and thought for a while, with some hesitation, "I just want to ask..."

Song Chuji waited patiently for her.

Li Man quickly raised his eyes to look at her, then lowered them again.

Song Chuji's attitude has always been patient and gentle.

It's very strange, in fact, she is not a person who likes to waste time with others, if someone asks a question like this, Song Chuji must have left early in the morning, and told the other party to think about the wording before asking.

But for Li Man, she never had such emotions.

It seems that no matter how long you wait for her, it's okay.

Li Man said: "You have to make sure that you are telling the truth."

Song Chuji nodded: "Okay."

Her tone was calm, but she seemed inexplicably tolerant.

Li Man took a deep breath, looked up at Song Chuji, "Do you really like the 1000 yuan bracelet I gave you?"

Song Chuji didn't answer the question first, but raised his eyebrows thoughtfully, "'Only' 1000 yuan?"

She smiled lightly, "Jewelry worth 1000 yuan is already very expensive."

Although Song Chuji was born in a wealthy family, it does not mean that her values ​​are broken.

Not all ordinary working-class people are willing to buy a thousand-yuan bracelet for themselves.

Li Man puffed her cheeks lightly, and said with some dissatisfaction: "That's not what I asked."

"Also, although it may be expensive to me, 1000 yuan is nothing to you." Li Man muttered softly.

Song Chuji looked at her, then put away the smile just now, and said seriously: "Of course I really like it."

Li Man looked up at her, and looked into the other's eyes: "Is it true?"

She pressed: "It's not a polite word, or, or..."

Li Man whispered: "You want to plot against me or something, you deliberately tricked me?"

If Chang Yanzhi were here, she must have fainted from the high blood pressure that was exasperated by Li Man's straightforward questioning.

Li Man's way of asking... To put it bluntly, it is straightforward, without any scheming.To put it bluntly, he was so stupid that he deserved to be cheated.

But Li Man really didn't like and didn't want to ask around the bush, and she wasn't very good at it either.

Li Man's eyes trembled, and she whispered: "If you really want to lie to me, I won't be able to find out, even if you say that you really like it now, as long as you say so, I will believe it. I'm not very good at spotting lies anyway."

For Song Chuji, Li Man has always had a special filter, as if the other party only knows how to deal with her, and disdains to use tricks and tricks.

That's why she felt that as long as Song Chuji said something, it would be the truth.

Li Man knew it was stupid, but she couldn't change it.

Song Chuji looked at Li Man, the other party's expression was half-hidden, because he couldn't see the emotion in his eyes clearly even with his downcast eyes.

There was a slight touch in her heart, and she stood up straight.

After a while, Song Chuji whispered: "What I said is true. It's not polite words, let alone coaxing words."

She paused, and said to Li Man: "I will not lie to you, never will. As long as I tell you, it is true, you can trust me."

In fact, Song Chuji was also a little worried about whether Li Man would believe it, because such a sentence was too pale.

She was thinking, why didn't she say something that would make people feel extremely convincing?

It's not like it is now, repeating these few sentences over and over again.

Li Man looked up at her, and Song Chuji smiled lightly at her.

More than half of the inexplicable burden in Li Man's heart dissipated.

She unconsciously showed a smile: "Yeah."

Song Chuji also didn't ask Li Man why she asked such a question suddenly, let alone who asked her to do this, because she already had the answer in her heart.

But Song Chuji didn't have much anger.

She knew that Chang Rouge was wary of herself.

Song Chuji didn't stay long, "Go to sleep, good night."

Li Man smiled and nodded, "You too."

After returning to the room, Li Man felt as if the rock in her heart had been let go, and her whole body was extremely relaxed.

And as for what Chang Yanzhi said... just put it in the back of your mind.

After all, Li Man wouldn't really be enemies with Song Chuji.

Although Su Fuxia came back, Song Chuji's life was not disturbed too much, as if the other party's initiative at the birthday party was an illusion.

But no matter what, Song Chuji didn't take her seriously.

She didn't have extra thoughts on Su Fuxia, so she wouldn't pay too much attention to her.

A week later, Song Chuji took on a new project and needed to travel.

She asked Li Man: "Do you want to go with me?"

Li Man first agreed without hesitation: "Okay."

Then he asked, "Where is it?"

Song Chuji said: "Not far, City H."

Li Man nodded: "How many days?"

Song Chuji: "Currently, it is tentatively scheduled for one week."

Li Man responded, "Okay, then when shall we set off?"

"Tomorrow afternoon, the high-speed train at four o'clock."

Because the distance is not far, there is really no need to go there by plane, but there is still some distance if you take a high-speed car, and you will be too tired in the car. It is better to go directly by high-speed rail, which is faster.

Li Man had taken the high-speed train before, so she wasn't worried, "Then I'll pack my things."

Before leaving, she asked again: "Is the task of this business trip difficult?"

Li Man was a little worried: "I, can I?"

Song Chuji glanced at her, the corners of his lips twitched softly, "Don't worry. Of course you can."

Li Man blinked.

Song Chuji: "What's more, you are just an assistant, and you won't be required to do any work. You just need to stay with me when the time comes."

She is familiar with this.

Li Man nodded.

Song Chuji suppressed the urge to rub it, and slightly bent his eyes, "Go."

Because it was her first business trip, Li Man was a little excited.

It's not that she hasn't traveled before, but how can travel be the same as a business trip?

Li Man was so excited and nervous that she sent a message to Jiang Xia, asking for her opinion.

Jiang Xia sent a string of "...".

Jiang Xia: You asked me this question, I don't think it came sooner than directly asking Song Chuji.

Jiang Xia: Moreover, our two industries have different directions. How do I know what you need to do on a business trip?

Li Man: Of course I know!I just want to ask, what do general assistants need to do?

Jiang Xia: It ranges from small things in life, including taking good care of the boss, and choosing a restaurant to communicate with the boss and partners when eating, etc., to some big things at work, but how to behave at work depends on the boss.

Jiang Xia: I don't think Song Chuji will let you touch work matters.

Li Man was not too angry, she still had self-knowledge about herself, although now she had a temporary understanding of some of the work at hand, but there were not many people who could follow up, Li Man was not in a hurry to become fat with one bite.

And even if Song Chuji let her go, she might not be able to do it well.

As for the assistant in life, although she has never taken care of anyone, she is familiar with it.

Soon, it was the day of departure.

Song Chuji directly helped to fix the ticket, and after the business trip, he could go to the financial department for reimbursement, so Li Man didn't take too much care.

But when chatting with Jiang Xia, Li Man realized that this kind of thing needs to be done by an assistant, because the boss will not deal with such trivial matters.

Li Man:!

She glanced at Song Chuji who was sitting next to her.

Song Chuji quickly noticed her gaze, "What's wrong?"

Li Man said: "Well... Do you need me to do things like buying tickets?"

Song Chuji didn't expect this to be what she was going to say, he was slightly taken aback, then shook his head with a light smile, "Don't worry about it, it's not a big deal."

Li Man was a little embarrassed, but serious, "But it's because it's a trivial matter that an assistant is required to do it. Otherwise, you have to worry about everything, wouldn't it be an overkill?"

Li Man's eyes were black and white, and she felt that it made sense, "What's more, I'm the assistant, so I should be the one to take care of you."

The curvature of Song Chuji's lips remained unchanged, "Okay."

She responded directly.

Li Man blinked, because Song Chuji's attitude changed so quickly that she felt that her emotions were a little elevated.

Li Man scratched her cheek embarrassingly, "Oh, oh, then, I'll book the ticket when I get back."

Song Chuji chuckled and responded.

In fact, it didn't matter who booked the ticket, Song Chuji just didn't want Li Man to worry and trouble at first.But if Li Man asked, Song Chuji would not go against her will.

What's more, Li Man may not be happy if she took things over with wishful thinking.

One advantage of the high-speed rail is that you can play with your mobile phone to your heart's content. Li Man's internet speed is good and will not be affected, so even if she is sitting side by side with Song Chuji, she doesn't have to worry about the relatively silent embarrassment.

She bowed her head in front of the whole family.

When looking through the calendar inadvertently, Li Man tensed up.

She thought that there was still one month... the day when Mrs. Song passed away.

Thinking of this, Li Man's mood sank.

Mrs. Song died of a natural death due to a serious illness, it has nothing to do with anyone, and there is no such thing as being pissed off by Chang Yanzhi, but the appearance of Chang Yanzhi finally cast a shadow over Song Chuji's heart.

After all, less than three months after his mother passed away, his father had a new girlfriend. No one could feel better.

It was precisely because of this that Li Man used to always feel that he "lowered his head" in front of Song Chuji.

Such emotions have evolved into sharp hostility because of the rebelliousness of the young people.

Li Man's hostility toward Song Chuji was very complicated, and it was a mixture of various emotions, but it can be concluded that there were many things she hadn't thought through or thought through.

Take this matter as an example, Li Man used to care about it, and then the emotion of caring became more and more intense and distorted with the rumors outside.

But now she can face it calmly, because those who are clear will clear themselves, and they have a clear conscience.

Correspondingly, the hostility towards Song Chuji has long since disappeared.

However, when seeing this day, Li Man still inevitably panicked.

Now she has come out, but Song Chuji may not.

Li Man was a little worried that her favorable impression would fall back to zero on this day.

But thinking about it now will not help, Li Man marked it on the calendar.

After arriving in City H, because the meeting with the partner was the next day, they just temporarily repaired and booked the room today.

Li Man originally planned to check out the hotel on the high-speed rail, but was told by Song Chuji that she had already booked a hotel, so she had no choice but to give up.

But because of this, Li Man realized that she was indeed a little negligent, and she knew that the assistant should come to this kind of thing.

Li Man felt a little guilty, "I will remember next time."

Song Chuji didn't care about that, after all, if she really wanted Li Man to work, she would directly remind her.

Even... when thinking of this point, Song Chuji directly ignored this plan.

"It's okay, it's not a big deal."

Seeing Li Man still looking downcast, Song Chuji smiled helplessly: "I will remind you next time."

Only then did Li Man lift his spirits.

In fact, when she came to the hotel, Li Man was still thinking, wouldn't there be some accident that required two people to squeeze into one room?

But it turned out that she was thinking too much.

Now that the room has been booked, how can there be a mistake.

Li Man felt that she had lost her mind to make such an association.

Song Chuji handed the room card to Li Man, and then said: "It's next door to me, call me if you need anything."

Li Man nodded seriously, "You too, call me if you have any questions."

Song Chuji bent his lips, and then got on the elevator with Li Man.

The two returned to their respective rooms to put their luggage.

Li Man received a WeChat message from Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia: Are you and Song Chuji in City H?

Li Man: Yes, what's wrong?

Jiang Xia: Untrue news, I suspect that Su Fuxia is also there.

Li Man:?
