The straw bag beauty is on the rise

Ruan Lili, who received Song Chuji's warning gaze, was a little guilty, she involuntarily looked away, and then saw Su Fuxia who was looking eagerly at Song Chuji.

If Ruan Lili felt regretful and complaining about Su Fuxia at the moment when Song Chuji angered her just now, then seeing Su Fuxia's pitiful situation, Ruan Lili's heart softened again.

Perhaps because he is friends with Song Chuji, Ruan Lili will unconsciously have a mentality similar to that of "in-law's family".

That is, if Song Chuji really wanted to fall in love, of course she hoped that Song Chuji's love partner would love Song Chuji far more than anything else, just like Su Fuxia who chased after Song Chuji.

Instead of Song Chuji chasing other people.

This would make Ruan Lili feel...in short, an inexplicably gratified mood.

This is another reason why she helped Su Fuxia.

Ruan Lili sighed softly in his heart, and then winked at Qin Yue, signaling him to comfort Song Chuji.

Qin Yue raised her eyebrows slightly after receiving the signal from her eyes, and put the water glass in front of her lips, covering that arc.

She has her own thoughts.

But it's a party after all, and it's not good to have a bad time.

So Qin Yue asked Song Chuji: "Would you like something to drink? Although it's at Ming Ting Pavilion, this time is our party after all, order a bottle of red wine."

Song Chuji was diverted from the topic.

She shook her head slightly, "No need, I came by car."

Qin Yue smiled and said, "It's not a difficult task, just ask the driver to come and pick it up."

Song Chuji still did not agree, "No need."

Qin Yue shrugged her shoulders slightly, not feeling too disappointed.

Then, the topic changed, and everyone started talking about other things.

While the food was being served, Su Fuxia changed seats with the person next to her without a trace.

When she caught Song Chuji's gaze, Su Fuxia smiled slightly and found a reason: "Chuji, I'm talking to you about the previous project."

Song Chuji raised his eyebrows slightly: "All the contracts have been signed, and the work will start soon. What else do you want to talk about?"

Su Fuxia naturally knew, she was just using this excuse to find a topic.

"A few details."

Song Chuji looked at her, and sneered with downcast eyes after a while, "Okay."

Just talk about things, just talk about business.

At the dinner table, there were occasional other people trying to persuade them to drink, but Song Chuji refused them one by one.

With the help of the noisy voice, Su Fuxia whispered to Song Chuji: "Chuji, Chinese New Year is coming soon, I don't know if I can ask you out after the next year..."

Song Chuji interrupted her words, although his tone was not harsh, but very cold. "Sorry, I don't think I have time."

Su Fuxia pursed her lips tightly, restraining her gaffe, "You have time, but you just, just don't want to accompany me."

Song Chuji lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then admitted with a little smile, "You're right."

Sufuxia paled.

Song Chuji did not deny it: "Why should I accompany you?"

Su Fuxia's lips trembled slightly, "Can't I beg you?"

Song Chuji looked at her, with a natural inhumanity in his black and white eyes.

"What does this have to do with asking or not? I don't want to agree to you, so I won't agree."

Su Fuxia opened her lips, but at that moment she didn't know how to answer.

After Song Chuji understood her feelings, and after Su Fuxia began to pursue her, she had always maintained such an indifferent attitude and showed no mercy.

I don't know how long it took, but she asked as if holding a kind of expectation: "Is it because you don't like girls... that's why you reject me again and again."

If it was in her student days, then Su Fuxia might have gotten an affirmative answer.

Although Song Chuji has never liked anyone, her biological instinct does not make her attracted to women.

But now it's different.

Song Chuji could clearly feel that he was attracted by another person, and that person was of the same sex as her.

So Song Chuji replied calmly: "No, it's not."

Su Fuxia suddenly raised her eyes: "What?"

Song Chuji traced along the edge of the cup with his fingertips, with a candid and natural attitude.

"You heard it very well."

Su Fuxia opened her eyes wide, unable to restrain the astonishment in her heart: "You said you, you actually like the same sex?!"

She couldn't control her tone for a moment, and now, except for the people close by, the whole table heard Su Fuxia's words.

The atmosphere was quiet for a while, but fortunately, it didn't become awkward.

One of them said: "What's going on with Xiaoxia? It's been 20xx years. You're still surprised by this kind of thing, right?"

Qin Yue also smiled lightly: "In our circle, there are not many people who like girls, so there is no need to react like this."

Su Fuxia hurriedly explained: "No, I have no other meaning, I just..."

She looked at Song Chuji: "You never said you liked women."

Qin Yue also looked over, with a hint of inquiry in her eyes, "That's true, but given that Chu Ji's style is very innocent, and men and women are not close in beauty, I originally thought that Chu Ji had cut off his love, and I will never be in love in this life." won't like people anymore."

Ruan Lili thought of something.

"Chuji, don't you have someone you like?"

Only then did the others suddenly realize, "No wonder Chuji admitted so bluntly for the first time. Could it be that he wanted to take the opportunity to introduce someone to us?"

"I agree, I agree. Chuji didn't tell us why he was in love. It's too embarrassing. I suggest calling someone here immediately. I want to see what kind of character he is, so that he can hook Chuji Got it."

"That's right, I'm so curious, Chuji, can we take a look at each other?"

Seeing that Song Chuji had been directly misunderstood to be in a relationship, and Song Chuji himself hadn't reacted, Su Fuxia couldn't help retorting: "There is no such thing, don't talk nonsense!"

Now, the rest of the people realized something more or less, and looked at them with scrutiny and ambiguity.

"No way, Fuxia, do you know someone Chuji likes so clearly?"

Su Fuxia bit her lips, "It's because you speculated too much, and you have too much imagination." After a pause, Su Fuxia looked at Song Chuji with expectation: "Chuji, tell me, do you have any?"

She expected a negative answer.

The expression on Song Chuji's face did not change.

She just lowered her eyes slightly, blocking some of her thoughts.

If Song Chuji and Li Man really fell in love, then she would not hide the existence of the other party in the circle of friends, Song Chuji would only introduce Li Man openly.

If in the later stage, Song Chuji could have her own ability to protect Li Man, then she would also not mind being known about her liking for Li Man.

As for now?

Li Man can't be announced yet, but it doesn't mean she wants to deny her liking.

Thinking of this, Song Chuji raised his eyes, with a little smile in his eyes, "You guessed it right, I have someone I like."

Su Fuxia's face was completely pale.

Others made some booing sounds.

"Tell me who it is!"

"Wait, it's the person you like, not the person you're in love with, that means Chuji, are you still in the chasing stage?"

"Wow, I'm getting more and more curious about who it is. It's unbelievable that I can still control myself in the face of our sister Chuji."

The smile on Song Chuji's lips remained unchanged, "I can't show it to you for the time being."

"Tch, Chuji is really stingy, and we won't eat her."

Song Chuji clasped his hands and smiled lightly, "I will tell you when the time is right."

Su Fuxia couldn't hear the rest of the words clearly, her mind was pale now, only the phrase "I have someone I like" kept playing back in her mind.

Su Fuxia could feel some cold sweat on her palms, and her fingertips were trembling slightly.

She didn't know how to react at this moment, she just felt helpless.

Although Su Fuxia couldn't get close to Song Chuji before, she was not discouraged because she knew that neither could anyone else.

Song Chuji seemed to be born ignorant of liking people, no one had ever been able to get close to her.

This is also one of the reasons why Su Fuxia lost her mind in getting along day after day.

She thought she was special, she thought she could slowly attack Song Chuji.

It wasn't until now that she woke up as if she had been slapped in the face.

Song Chuji... has someone he likes.

This means that Song Chuji will soon be snatched away.

Thinking of Song Chuji going to fall in love with another girl in the future, hugging and kissing each other, and even doing the most intimate things with that person, Su Fuxia felt it was hard to breathe, and her heart was filled with jealousy.

Su Fuxia raised her eyes and met Ruan Lili's gaze.

The other party is equally unbelievable.

Their eyes briefly met.

Who would that person be?

Who was loved by Song Chuji so much, but who didn't respond to her?

At this moment, the scene of the business trip at that time came to Sufuxia's mind.

Could it be Li Man?

No, it shouldn't be.

But Song Chuji's attitude towards Li Man was really good and unbelievable.

At the same time, Ruan Lili also thought of Li Man.

But Li Man's identity...

Ruan Lili bit her lip, and decided to ask later.

After the party ended, Su Fuxia left first with her head down.

And Ruan Lili waited until Song Chuji left together.

Song Chuji glanced at her, "Ask."

Ruan Lili pursed her lips, "Who is that person? Is it Li Man?"

Song Chuji slightly raised her eyebrows with interest, and there was a slight sarcasm on her lips. She repeated Ruan Lili's words as if pondering, and then asked, "Are you questioning me?"

Ruan Lili was speechless, "I...not."

The expression on Song Chuji's face changed slightly, but the emotion in his eyes had already cooled down, "Even if my dad is standing here today, he has no position to ask me directly, why do you think you can, Ruan Li?"

"What is your position?"

Ruan Lili subconsciously said, "Of course it's a friend's position."

Song Chuji said: "Friend? You mean the friend who violated my wishes and intervened in my affairs several times?"

"..."

Ruan Lili wanted to explain, but he didn't know how to explain, because what he did cannot be denied.

"Sufuxia, she... just wanted to see you, that's why I arranged this party, and it doesn't count as meddling in your affairs. At most... At most, it was just to bring Sufuxia here."

Song Chuji put his hands in his pockets, his brows slightly raised, with a hint of sarcasm.

"I thought that what happened back then was enough to reveal my attitude, so why do you think that I still want to have a personal affair with Su Fuxia?"

"Your so-called caring, is it caring for friendship, but caring for your own selfish desire?"

These words directly hit Ruan Lili's heart, her fingers trembled, "Chuji! I don't have one."

Song Chuji just said coldly, "If I talk too much, I will look like a fool."

She stopped and looked at Ruan Li indifferently, "Don't come to me again in the future."

Ruan Lili opened his eyes wide in astonishment, looked at Song Chuji's back who left without hesitation, and immediately chased after him, "Chuji, what do you mean?"

Song Chuji didn't have the slightest nostalgia, "literally."

Ruan Lili: "I, but I am your friend, do you mean to break up with me?"

"Friend?" Song Chuji said these two words, she looked at Ruan Lili's complexion turned pale, looked at her eyebrows and asked back, "Do you think what you did can still be explained by these two words? ?”

Song Chuji had a cool expression on his face, "You also said that you are just friends, but your actions are aimed at controlling and manipulating my choices and behaviors?"

"..."

Ruan Lili couldn't even say the pale "I don't".

She looked at Song Chuji's figure walking further and further away, and for some reason, she was a little afraid to catch up.

Ruan Lili admired Song Chuji a little since she was a student, and she felt that Song Chuji could do things she couldn't do.

In Ruan Lili's heart, Song Chuji was her good friend and someone she wanted to be close to.

Of course, she hoped that Song Chuji would get better and better, but she didn't know when it started, this mentality of hoping that the other party would get better began to slowly change, and gradually gave her... a desire to control the other party.

It's like a parent treating a child for his own good, but what he does in the end is like treating a puppet.

Ruan Lili was left where she was, and she looked at Song Chuji's back, not daring to catch up.

After Su Fuxia returned home, she locked herself in the room. She recalled what happened today, and the words Song Chuji said echoed in her mind. She grabbed her clothes in pain and cried helplessly.

It was the first time she liked someone so much, she really didn't want to let go of Song Chuji.

But, what can she do?

Then, what Ruan Lili had said once surfaced in her mind.

Sufuxia sat up from the bed.

She is not entirely hopeless.

Sufusha clenched her fingers.

Marriage.

Soon it was time for a holiday, and Li Man's work was almost over, so she was not as busy as the previous days.

She stayed in her seat and yawned, drowsy.

Li Man felt a little dizzy, wondering if she had caught a cold.

After all, the temperature has changed repeatedly recently, and it is winter again. It is common to catch a cold without paying attention.

But there was no thermometer in the office, and Li Man felt that this was too trivial, so he didn't say anything.

Anyway, after going back, it's good to make a cup of cold medicine.

Song Chuji glanced to the side while resting.

She is used to seeing Li Man's state through the transparent glass wall.

Although... such a description is a bit inappropriate, but Song Chuji felt that the current state of himself and Li Man was a bit like, "the red sleeves add fragrance, and the beautiful woman is by the side".

Li Man can be seen in a blink of an eye, no matter how tiring or hard the work is, I feel that with Li Man's company, Song Chuji can relieve a lot of fatigue.

It's just that this time Li Man's state seems to be a bit wrong.

Seeing Li Man's pale face with drooping eyes, Song Chuji stood up from his seat.

She pushed open the door of Li Man's office, didn't go in immediately, but knocked on the glass.

Li Man came back to her senses, "What's wrong?"

She thought that Song Chuji was going to explain some work, so she stood up.

Song Chuji didn't yell to stop, watching Li Man come to him with gentle eyes.

"Are you feeling unwell?"

Li Man opened her eyes wide in surprise, "How do you know?"

She glanced at the glass, "You can see it?"

Song Chuji didn't deny it, "What's uncomfortable?"

Li Man rubbed the tip of her nose, "Not anymore..."

However, this rubbing made her feel itchy.

As we all know, sneezing is the most unbearable thing, so Li Man felt the familiar itch, and immediately turned her head in another direction, covering her nose with her palm, and sneezed firmly.

She took a step back in embarrassment, "Don't infect you with the bacterial virus."

Song Chuji frowned, instead of retreating, he took a step closer, "Cold and fever?"

Li Man felt her own situation, "It should be a little cold."

Song Chuji: "Give you a leave of absence and go to the hospital."

Li Man clicked her tongue a little, "No, no, no! I can just go home and take medicine for this kind of minor illness, so I need to go to the hospital..."

It's like pulling out a barb on a finger and drawing blood, and then fussing about looking for gauze and gold sore medicine.

It's not that Li Man had never been ill before coming to Song's house, and she was often "cured after a long illness".

If you have a cold, take a cup of granules, but it's not enough, add an anti-inflammatory drug.

I accidentally scratched my hand, so I applied iodophor and wrapped it with a band-aid.

Headaches are generally related to sleep, either sleeping too much or sleeping too little.

Stomach pain, drink more water.

My aunt is in pain, take a painkiller.

So facing Song Chuji's talk of going to the hospital, Li Man naturally avoided it.

She smiled dryly, "You believe me, I am sure of my physical condition."

Song Chuji still frowned.

Li Man promised: "I will take the medicine as soon as I get home from work."

Song Chuji had no choice but to give in, "Is there any medicine at home?"

Li Man nodded: "Yes, yes."

Song Chuji pursed his lips, and stretched out his hand to test the temperature of Li Man's forehead.

It was slightly relieved to find that there was no overheating.

As soon as she lowered her eyes, she saw Li Man standing obediently and looking at her. Her eyes were round and looked like the eyes of a deer, innocent and cute.

Her figure is still reflected in the eyes, with trust and connivance towards her.

Song Chuji's heart moved slightly, a little soft-hearted, and a little moved.

Her eyelids trembled, and the corners of her lips pursed slightly.

There is no doubt that Song Chuji wanted to kiss her.

but……

In the end, she just retracted her hand and pinched her palm.

Song Chuji said with gentle emotions, "Remember to tell me after you take the medicine."
