[Comprehensive] Did Zhixi watch pretty boys today?

After the week-long trip to Kyoto, Zhixi returned to her post and began to deal with the backlog of work for the week. Before that, because Hong's arm was completely intact, she moved from his home to the office again. that tiny room.

Obviously it hasn't been long, but when sitting on the small wooden bed, Zhi Xi felt as if she had passed away.

Once again... separated.

I feel that my movements seem to be too fast, will Jiao Dong mistakenly think that she is hiding from him?

Such worries are not unreasonable, because Zhixi can't say without guilt that she didn't flee when she packed her luggage-she remembers what Kise Ryota once said.

She remembered that the handsome model with dazzling blond hair said that when you like someone, you can't help but want to laugh when you see him, and you can't help but want to get close...but you dare not.

Ever since the heart palpitations on the night of the summer festival, Zhixi had a faint feeling that an emotion infinitely close to "timidity" suddenly grew in an inconspicuous corner of her heart—it cannot be said to be Suddenly, after all, no one knows how long a seed has been sleeping in the soil before it breaks through the soil.

Really?

She didn't dare to think about it, for fear that once she thought about it, it would break a certain precarious balance.

Fortunately, this kind of trouble didn't last long. After realizing that Sakai Nanasaki had some abnormal emotions, Zhixiu's attention was diverted.This is her second day of work after returning from vacation. Although the entire survey department and even the entire firm worked overtime yesterday, today's workload will not be any lighter.

But Sakai Nanasaki felt visibly excited with the naked eye for some reason.

"Is something good going to happen, Nanasaki?"

Taking advantage of the time to pour tea in the tea money, Zhi Xi asked casually.

"Hmm, is it a good thing? It probably counts." Nanasaki Sakai said vaguely, but her expression was clearly not so uncertain, "Ah Lin probably doesn't know yet, there will be a reception in two days, Mr. Hong will go too."

"Drinking party?"

"Well, generally speaking, it's a gathering of a group of descendants of heroes who are similar to Mr. Hong. If they have something in common, they probably have a prominent family background and are all engaged in the profession of heroes."

Sakai Nanasaki spoke to the point, but Zhixi heard the subtext: Why do descendants of heroes with prominent families gather together for a reception?Just to connect feelings?

This is obviously impossible.

Therefore, the so-called reception should be under the guise of exchanging information in private - Zhixi has a lot of experience, after all, even if they are all engaged in the profession of heroes, everyone's level of development in this aspect is also different. It's not the same, what's more, it's about the so-called dude, ignorant and incompetent.

"All in all, it's a bit boring but I have to attend the reception for various reasons. It's an annual event." Nanasaki Sakai continued, "I remember that Hong-kun started attending this reception three years ago, but he I didn't bring a female companion with me that time, which caused me a lot of trouble."

Zhi Xi grasped the key: "Female companion?"

"That's right, you need to bring your female companion to attend such a reception. Mr. Hong went alone for the first time, but in the few days after he came back, people kept calling him. Later, Mr. Hong hung up almost as soon as he connected. I only learned later from others that at the reception that day, someone saw that he had no female companion, so they introduced him to a girlfriend on their own initiative."

Zhixi noticed that Nanasaki Sakai's eyes were much brighter than usual when she mentioned the past, and her tone of voice was also very brisk. She was a little puzzled: Although it is the nature of most women to love gossip, but only from this incident. Seeing it, Zhixi didn't quite find the point that made Nanasaki Sakai so happy, so she thought for a while and continued to ask: "What about last year? How did Hong-kun live last year?"

This question is clearly asked correctly.

As soon as Zhixi finished speaking, she saw Sakai showing a somewhat mysterious smile: "Last year, Mr. Hong took me there."

Well, she finally knew why Sakai was so excited.

After all, since she was the one who attended as the female companion last year, it is very likely that she will be the same this year.

Zhixi was inexplicably dissatisfied, but she also firmly believed that if Hong Jiaodong still went to that reception this year, she would definitely invite herself—with such confidence, looking at Sakai again, she would have a little more pity.Zhi Xi patted her on the shoulder and said with a smile: "That's very good, Mr. Hong must look very handsome in a suit, you should seize the opportunity to appreciate it more."

Sakai was caught off guard: "...Uh, hehe, you're right."

Is Erin Yuyu speaking so directly?She is confused.

But seeing the black-haired woman's expression has always been very natural, Sakai felt that some of his previous thoughts were too sensitive.

She had vaguely regarded this new colleague as a "rival in love".

Zhi Xi sits at her desk, fidgeting and anxious.

Ten minutes ago, Hong Jiaodong called Sakai Nanasaki into his office.

Of course, this kind of situation happened from time to time in the past. After all, as the head of the survey department, there are indeed many things that need to be reported to the superior in detail at work. I don't want to think too much about it—is Jiao Dong also planning to invite Sakai as a female companion to the reception this year?

The more she thought about it, the more complicated her mood became. She thought confidently that she would bring her.

why?

Is it because she is not pretty enough? (.

Damn it, you really can't believe what a man says, you obviously said it so nicely before: You've always been good-looking.

What a liar!

The door of the office was pushed open again, and the woman who was still in good spirits before she went was now looking sluggish, her shoulders were a little slumped, Zhi Xi saw it, and asked with concern: "Qisaki, what happened?"

"Ah," she came back to her senses, opened her mouth and said forcefully: "No, no, it's just a matter of work—— Mr. Hong said that there was a new indiscriminate attack by criminals in District A today, and the scene has sent People have gone, but we will probably have to work overtime."

"Well, the recent workload is indeed a bit heavy, we all have to work hard."

Zhi Xi comforted her, and at this moment, she also received a message asking her to go to the office.

This is really novel, after all, in the past month, Hong Jiaodong has never called her to the office during working hours - at the beginning, when Zhixi first entered the office, many people were secretly guessing The relationship between them, but everyone observed carefully for a long time, convinced that they were just ordinary superiors and subordinates, and gradually dispelled the speculation.

In fact, Zhi Xi was able to truly integrate into the firm in a relatively short period of time, on the one hand because of her working ability, and on the other hand, it is also inseparable from Hong Jiao Dong's intention to do so.Zhi Xi tidied up the table, tried not to let the smile on the corner of her mouth be too obvious, and knocked on the office door.

Let her guess, what should be next?please come in?Then what?

There is a reception these two days, can I have the honor to invite you as my girlfriend?

Then she just needs to nod reservedly, and that's it.

However, Zhi Xi did not wait for the legendary "please come in".

Because as soon as she knocked, the door was opened from the inside, and a man with a handsome face stood at the door, pinching his brows wearily, "Zhi Xi, what are you having for dinner?"

Zhi Xi: "... just buy something to eat at the entrance of the office, is there something wrong with Jiao Dong calling me over?"

Boom: "I want to ask, do you want to order takeaway with me? There is a full discount."

He took out the takeaway order page on his phone and shook it in front of her.

...Is that why you called her here?

Zhi Xi complained frantically in her heart, trying not to say the phrase "The boss takes the lead during working hours and will deduct wages if he doesn't do his job properly", he kept his precarious calm and ordered a nearby restaurant together with Hong Jiao Dong shop of soba noodles.

Unwilling before leaving, he asked again: "Jiao Dong, do you have anything else to tell me?"

"Yes," Hong said seriously, "I have to work overtime tonight, so you have to remember to eat more."

Zhi Xi: "..."

Eat you big head ghost!

Three days later, Zhi Xi realized that Hong Jiao Dong had gone to the annual rich second-generation hero reception by herself.

Of course it wasn't from the man himself, he never brought his life to work.The reason why Zhixi could guess it was because three days later she noticed that the phone was ringing more frequently than before.

It was exactly the same phenomenon that Nanasaki Sakai mentioned to her in the tea room before.

But based on these alone, we cannot be sure.

The "evidence" was really grasped when Zhixi discovered that during the lunch break on Friday, he rarely left the office, instead of ordering takeaway as usual.

——The key is not even asking her before leaving!

There must be ghosts!

For a while, Zhi Xi didn't have time to wonder why she cared so much about Hong Jiao Dong's private meeting with other women, and when she came to her senses, she also sneaked out of the office.

Hong Jiaodong walked into a nearby coffee shop.

Zhi Xi put all her hair down, covering most of her face, and after 2 minutes of being sneaky, she also stepped into the store door, and quickly found a seat not far from him but not easy to be seen.

When the waiter came up to hand over the menu, she was so guilty that she didn't even dare to look at the title. She just glanced at it casually and ordered a piece of pasta, then bent down and took a fashion magazine from the shelf beside her, pretending to be serious. Read it.

In fact, a pair of eyes kept glancing in the direction of the man.

Five minutes later, a young woman who looked about her age walked into the cafe.She was wearing the same dress that was on the cover of the magazine in Zhi Xi's hand, and she was carrying a bag with the logo of a famous luxury brand. She just walked by lightly, and the air in a five-meter radius was scented.

Then Zhi Xi watched her sitting in front of Hong Frozen.

The two people's voices were faintly heard next to their ears:

"Sorry, I'm late, Mr. Hong."

"It's okay, I just arrived too."

After a brief exchange of greetings, the two quickly ordered the order, and the waiter left with the menu in his arms. Their conversation continued: "The temperature is so high recently, a hero like Mr. Hong must be very hot at work, right?" ? Pay attention to your body."

"Thank you for your concern, I will take care of myself."

"I heard people say that Mr. Hong is not very good at talking, but he is very reliable. After getting along these few days, I have the same feeling." The woman brushed her long wavy hair, revealing her slender and fair neck, "Talk to you , there is no burden at all, I feel so comfortable."

But Zhixi grasped the key words of the conversation: getting along for a few days.

——When did these two get along together?

Across the potted plant, the black-haired woman showed a look of 12 vigilance.

The conversation next door was still going on. Although most of the conversations were made by the woman, the taciturn man kept responding lightly, expressing that he was listening.The content of their chats ranged from poetry and songs to philosophy of life, and then gradually shifted to hobbies.

"Speaking of which, I like small animals very much. I have a Siamese cat at home. I became a mother yesterday!"

——There are cats, too enviable.

Zhixi felt sour with real emotion.

Boom's voice was very gentle: "I also like cats very much. I used to have a Bombay cat at home. It ran out mischievously in the past two days and never came back."

When talking about cats, his tone was tainted with a smile at the right time, and then dropped down when he said the last sentence, as if he was really worried about it.

Zhi Xi was very confused at first, why didn't she know that Hong liked cats?Isn't she the one who likes cats?

And when did he get a what... Bombay cat?

At that moment, Zhi Xifuzhi realized something mentally. She took out her mobile phone to search for pictures of Bombay cats, and her expression froze when the pictures were loaded.

Pure black shiny hair.

Deep amber eyes.

hello? ? ?

"Ah, haven't you come back all this time? - Mr. Hong, don't be too sad. If you can't find it all the time, forget it." The woman hurriedly said: "If Mr. Hong doesn't mind, you can come to my house and take one away. .”

"Then I would like to thank Miss Xiao Shimizu."

"I've said it all, just call me tomorrow."

The woman lowered her head slightly, the corners of her lips were slightly pursed, and there was a hint of shyness in her gentle voice.

Zhi Xi couldn't bear it anymore.

At that moment, her brain was broken, so that when she realized it, she had already stood up and walked to the table.

"Mr. Hong, are you sure you want to raise another cat?"

The black-haired woman's face was full of smiles, and her voice was extremely gentle, but it made people feel a little dangerous for no reason——

"If you know that you have other cats, that Bombay cat will never come back."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the man's eyes light up "suddenly".

Just like the fireworks blooming in the night sky on the night of the summer festival.

"How can this work?"

He looked at her and said word by word, seriously,

"I'd be very sad if it never came back."

"Because the only thing I like is the Bombay cat."

"The above is the whole process of me being tricked home by your father."

In the hot summer, the air-conditioning in the air-conditioned room is turned on just right, which is a very comfortable temperature.

The brunette took a spoonful of iced watermelon, gritted her teeth and looked out the window, "That day was as hot as today, maybe a little hotter."

"Wow, dad is good or bad, how can he lie to mom like this."

The girl with pigtails exclaimed, filled with righteous indignation: "I won't kiss my father tonight!"

"If my sister doesn't kiss, I won't either, eh!"

The woman smiled, and each of them fed a small mouthful of watermelon, "Mom didn't hurt you for nothing."

but,

Kiss still wants to kiss.

Just as the dinner was on the table, there was a sound from the entrance.She was the first to go forward, raised her head with her eyes closed, and let the man place a light kiss on the corner of her lips.

"Hmph, for the sake of your spot today, I forgive you for lying to me."

He chuckled.

"Thank you madam for your generosity."

Finish.
