Do not lie to me

When Shang Xuechen woke up and opened his eyes, he saw Yuan Li'an and Brother Zhou standing on the bed and looking down at him.

Brother Zhou looked at Shang Xuechen with his eyes wide open and grinned at him in a daze, "I'm awake."

Shang Xuechen was so frightened that he pulled the quilt over his head, moved his body and shrank to the other side of the bed.Brother Zhou wanted to go around but was stopped by Yuan Li'an. Shang Xuechen curled up his legs and leaned against the head of the bed, revealing a pair of eyes and asked, "Where's Ji Shuping?"

Brother Zhou was a little confused, it was the first time he had seen Shang Xuechen look so timid.Brother Zhou raised the spatula in his hand and told him, "He went to work."

Shang Xuechen wrapped around the quilt and only showed a pair of eyes to look at Brother Zhou.Brother Zhou also followed his gaze and looked down at himself. He was cooking for Shang Xuechen. Although he just heated up the things left by Ji Shuping, he still put on his apron in a decent manner.

Shang Xuechen still huddled in the corner of the bed, and asked in a timid voice, "Where's Ji Shuping?"

Brother Zhou tilted his head and looked at Shang Xuechen strangely, so he had to repeat his words, "I said he went to work."

Shang Xuechen lowered his head and pulled the quilt to cover his eyes.

"You should eat something first when you wake up." Brother Zhou was about to step forward to persuade Shang Xuechen, but Yuan Li'an stretched out his arm to block him, "Let him be alone first."

"What's wrong with him?" Brother Zhou asked Yuan Li'an.

Yuan Li'an didn't know either but shook his head and sighed.Brother Zhou also shook his head and sighed with him, turned around and was about to go out, but was held back as soon as he turned around.Brother Zhou turned around to see that it was Shang Xuechen who was pulling the tie behind his apron.

Seeing Brother Zhou looking at him, Shang Xuechen wrapped the quilt tightly and lowered his head, muttering.

"Ah? What did you say?" Brother Zhou couldn't hear what he said.Only when you bend down to listen, can you hear Shang Xuechen's words clearly when you bend down. He said, "This is Ji Shuping's apron."

"I'll borrow it first to wear it. Am I cooking for you?"

Shang Xuechen held on tightly, and only said, "This is Ji Shuping's apron."

Brother Zhou saw that he was holding on to the apron, so he had no choice but to take off the apron on his body, "Okay, then give it back to you."

As soon as Brother Zhou took off his apron, Shang Xuechen snatched it away. Afraid that he would not give it up, he grabbed the apron and hid under the quilt, covering his head.

Brother Zhou frowned and said to him, "Don't hide under the quilt with your apron in your arms. Is it dirty?"

Yuan Li'an stretched out his hand to pester him, and motioned him to go out first with his eyes.Brother Zhou followed Yuan Li'an out of the room, and waited for Yuan Li'an to close the door before asking him, "What's going on with him, he doesn't seem to know us. I've never seen him look so timid."

Yuan Li'an picked up his phone and started sending text messages while listening to Brother Zhou.The text message was sent and there was a reply within a short time.Yuan Li'an immediately opened it to take a look.Brother Zhou came up to him and asked, "How, what did he say? What happened to him?"

"He didn't tell Brother Shang why he became like this. He just said to let him be quiet, and he would regain his sanity in a while. He also said that there was a perfume he was used to by the bed, and Brother Shang would feel at ease after smelling it. Just don't Just keep him hungry."

Ji Shuping frowned and looked at the text message, thinking that he should immediately call Yang Lian and ask him to go over to check on Shang Xuechen's condition.But worried that he was not there, Shang Xuechen was getting emotional.

While the chairman was talking, he turned his head and saw Ji Shuping who was worried about the screen of his mobile phone. He tapped the table twice before Ji Shuping put away his mobile phone.

"I've never seen you have such an eager expression before."

Ji Shuping took a sip of the coffee in front of him, looked down at the coffee in his hand, "The doctor told me to learn restraint, so I used to be very restrained. However, my condition is not stable recently, and sometimes I can't restrain myself. By the way Come back, this is Blue Mountain?"

The chairman glanced at the coffee in Ji Shuping's hand, "Well, Mrs. Shao gave it."

"Don't you hate her?"

"She has to give it away, and I have no reason not to accept it."

Ji Shuping smiled, and put down the coffee in his hand, "It's not because you have reached a cooperation. You think it's better not to confront her. Besides, the Shao Ling you have always hated is gone, but this Shao Ji who just appeared is not. For so many years, Shao Ling has been an eyesore in front of you. Of course, you can't say how much you hate him. The Ji family has to develop, and the Shao family has to maintain stability. No one can tell what will happen in the future. Of course, it is necessary to maintain a relatively harmonious scene. Hello, everyone." Ji Shuping smiled, tightened his grip, and his eyes darkened, "Besides maintaining the current situation of superficial harmony, you will have the opportunity to infiltrate the Shao Brothers little by little. Can you accept Shao Ji's palm? Shi, it's not because his age and experience are not enough, he has enough time for you to make arrangements."

The chairman frowned and changed the subject, "I didn't come to you to talk about this. Shareholders have never agreed to start a new project."

Ji Shuping lowered his eyelashes, thinking that his guess was really good, the chairman of the dinner was deliberately showing weakness, she was still not reconciled to Shao, and now calling herself back to discuss Ji's project is probably to find an excuse for him to help sit in charge Ji Shi, so she can focus on dealing with Shao Shi.Ji Shuping opened his mouth slowly, "But the project has already started." He turned to look at the chairman, "Isn't it?"

The chairman leaned back on the chair and laughed dryly, "Sometimes I don't know who you look like, like me or your father? I don't think so, but you are actually like your grandfather."

Ji Shuping looked down at the coffee cup in front of him, clenched his fists and thought in his heart, I don't look like anyone.After he stabilized his mood, he stretched out his fists and clasped his hands on his thighs, "It's not that the shareholders don't know about the fact that the new project has started, but they are pretending not to know, and deliberately voted against the project at the meeting. Why? Isn't it because the land is not in their own hands, does it mean convenience from Mrs. Shao's hands? For them, it means that they will lose a share of the profit when the time comes. But the project has been opened, Why do you have to make a fuss, the fuss is actually forcing a clear explanation, to ensure that they will not lose any profits in the end."

"What do you think I should do?"

"What else can I do? Didn't I lose a project before? Now I want to use Mrs. Shao's land. In fact, it will take next year for the new project to start and return the funds. But Mrs. Shao invested a sum of money, you can You can use Mrs. Shao's money to make up the front hole, but this year the shareholders won't get a share of the profits. As for next year? It depends on how the land will be operated. Gather for the money Troubles can also be loosened for money. You don’t want to admit that everyone benefits, at least you have to promise that some of them will get better benefits if they stand on your side, and the alliance of interests will easily disintegrate.”

The chairman smiled when he heard this, Ji Shuping felt that it was almost done, and wanted to leave when he got up, he was still worried about Shang Xuechen.Who knew that as soon as he got up, the chairman said to him, "Follow me to the shareholder meeting later."

Ji Shuping frowned, this is a signal to the shareholders, does the chairman want to get himself involved in Ji's troubled waters?

"I have said that I have been emotionally unstable recently."

"Well, I've heard of it. I heard that you beat the person you used for entertainment and didn't show up for a few days?" The chairman got up and walked to Ji Shuping's side, "But it doesn't matter. As long as you can speak clearly good."

Ji Shuping stood there and gritted his teeth, looking at the chairman's back as he pushed the door out.The chairman opened the door and glanced at Ji Shuping, "Hurry up and catch up."

Ji Shuping gritted his teeth and followed, only thinking in his heart, it seems that if he wants to avoid Ji's family, he really needs to bleed hard.

Zhou Yuan hasn't seen Ji Shuping since she came to the office in the morning, and the door of the office has been locked all the time.She was going to the front desk to inquire, but a phone call on the way made her go to an empty meeting room.

"Hey?"

"What's the matter with you? The person who should be cleaned up hasn't been cleaned up yet. There was already a disturbance in the casino yesterday. If Madam knows how ugly her face will be, she will probably change her mind when she promises to help you."

"How could there be a commotion in the casino all of a sudden?"

"how could I know?"

The person opposite hung up the phone unceremoniously, and Zhou Yuan lowered her hands and sighed.Coming out of the conference room, she walked out without energy. When she passed the front desk, if the girl at the front desk hadn't called her, she wouldn't have noticed that she had already walked out a lot.

"Sister Yuan, where are you going?"

Zhou Yuan smiled, "Oh, I don't want to go anywhere. I don't think Mr. Ji has come here today, so I want to go down and have a look."

The little girl at the front desk curled her lips, "I heard that Mr. Ji ran out suddenly on the way to the meeting yesterday, and he didn't say anything. Uncle Kang didn't wait for anyone to come back yesterday. I saw the manager running over when I was at the front desk yesterday. According to the security guard in the lobby downstairs, the general manager ran out and got into a van and left."

"Van?" Zhou Yuan murmured, how did it happen to run into the riot in the casino yesterday?Was it because of Shang Xuechen that he ran out so anxiously?Zhou Yuan remembered Ji Shuping's distraught state because of Shang Xuechen.It seems that it needs to be cleaned up as soon as possible, otherwise they will see the clues sooner or later.

"Sister Yuan, sister Yuan."

Zhou Yuan came back to her senses, "Huh? What?"

"Why are you wearing gloves all the time lately? Is this a new fashion trend?"

Zhou Yuan shook her wrist, with a light smile on her face, "No, it's just that my hand was injured."

"Oh, I thought it was some new fashion. Look, I saw the leather shoes you wore before in a fashion magazine today."

"Really?" Zhou Yuan still smiled perfunctorily.

Brother Zhou was worried with a spatula on his hip. He glanced at the closed door, then at Yuan Li'an who was sitting at the dining table, and asked him, "What if he doesn't come out for dinner?"

"It should come out." Yuan Li'an propped his head in his hands and faced the door, "Didn't it mean that resistance dissipated over time?"

Brother Zhou lowered his head and pursed his lips, "Xiao Yuan, I always feel that there is something wrong with Shang's mentality."

Yuan Li'an also lowered his head and said, "Actually, I think so too."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened. Shang Xuechen held the apron tightly with both hands while covering the quilt, and asked behind the door, "Has Ji Shuping come back?"

Yuan Li'an and Brother Zhou glanced at each other, and Brother Zhou winked at him to tell him, Yuan Li'an frowned and turned around to tell Shang Xuechen, "Not yet, isn't it time to get off work? How about I Call back and let him see you?"

"No, no." Shang Xuechen tightened the apron in his hand and lowered his head, "He said that he is very busy recently, let him be busy. I can't bother him, he will take me away when he is busy, so that we can There is a future."

Yuan Li'an and Brother Zhou looked at each other again, none of them understood what Shang Xuechen said.Shang Xuechen looked up at them and was about to close the door, Brother Zhou hurriedly stopped him, "Well, are you hungry?"

The movement of closing the door stopped, Shang Xuechen quickly glanced at them, then at the table full of dishes, and nodded in a muffled voice.After nodding, he looked at Brother Zhou suspiciously, "You didn't cook well."

Brother Zhou didn't expect Shang Xuechen to say something disgusting at this time, and crossed his arms in front of his chest angrily, "Ji Shuping made this for you."

"Really?"

"Well. If you don't believe me, come out and taste it. Once you taste this, you will know if he made it."

Shang Xuechen lowered his head and squeezed the apron in his hand, looked up timidly at Brother Zhou and Yuan Li'an, then lowered his head and slowly opened the door, wrapped the quilt tightly, only showing a pair of eyes, and walked towards the dining table vigilantly .

Both Brother Zhou and Yuan Li'an looked at him nervously, raising their hearts with every step they took, like a sleepy sparrow, scattering rice grains to lure him to go to the arranged place, but they were even more worried than that, after all That's not the sparrow, it's Shang Xuechen, so be careful with it.

Shang Xuechen finally walked to the table and sat down, Brother Zhou and Yuan Li'an both heaved a sigh of relief.Yuan Li'an urged Zhou Ge to go to the kitchen to serve porridge, while he went into the closet of the room and found a suit jacket.About to go out, Yuan Li'an turned around and took the perfume left by Ji Shuping on the bedside after thinking about it, and sprayed it on his coat.

Shang Xuechen was sitting at the dining table, and when Brother Zhou took the porridge bowl and spoon and put them in front of Shang Xuechen, Shang Xuechen was still wrapped in the quilt and didn't intend to stretch out his hand, he only looked at the dishes on the table with his eyes, and then Brother Zhou heard the gurgling sound from his stomach.Brother Zhou sighed and said, "You have to stick your hands out of the quilt and drink the porridge with a spoon."

At this point, Shang Xuechen was blindfolded, Brother Zhou went up to lift his quilt anxiously, "Oh, I don't mean to blame you, but just to remind you that it's inconvenient."

When Yuan Li'an came out, he saw one pulling hard, and the other desperately pulling like this. He stepped forward and slapped Zhou Ge's hand holding the quilt, and squatted beside Shang Xuechen, discussing nicely, "You Don't hold on to that apron, it smells of oily smoke, and don't cover your face with a quilt, it's inconvenient to eat. I brought you a coat to wear."

Because of Yuan Li'an's good tone, Shang Xuechen peeked out from under the quilt to look at him again.Yuan Li'an stretched out his coat in front of him, "This is Ji Shuping's coat, it smells like him, it's better than the smell of oily smoke on the apron, if you don't believe me, smell it."

After hearing this, Shang Xuechen showed a face, leaned forward and smelled it with his nose, and then smiled.Yuan Li'an took advantage of the opportunity and stretched out his hand to pull away Shang Xuechen's wrapped quilt, without much resistance from Shang Xuechen.Yuan Li'an put Ji Shuping's suit on his shoulders, and as soon as he put it on, Shang Xuechen pulled the coat over his head.

Brother Zhou supported his knees and sat on the chair opposite Shang Xuechen like an old man. Watching Shang Xuechen happily put his coat on his head, Brother Zhou laughed twice and joked like he used to tease Shang Xuechen He said, "Do you really want to cover your head with a red hijab? Cover your head with everything."

As soon as Brother Zhou spoke, Shang Xuechen pursed his lips.As soon as Yuan Li'an sat down and saw Shang Xuechen, who had a pouty mouth, he immediately raised his leg and kicked Brother Zhou, and comforted Shang Xuechen, "Don't listen to him, it's okay, as long as you are happy." After finishing speaking, he would stare again. Brother Zhou took a look, afraid that Brother Zhou would hide what Shang Xuechen said and go back to the room.Brother Zhou scratched his head in embarrassment, opened his mouth and said in a breathy voice, "Why did he become so childish all of a sudden, and he can't even say it."

"Didn't I say that he has..." Yuan Li'an cast a cautious glance at Shang Xuechen who was opposite him, then turned his head and mouthed at Brother Zhou, "Sick."

Brother Zhou lowered his head and scratched the back of his head in frustration.

"Because it feels safe." Both Yuan Li'an and Brother Zhou looked up at him, afraid that he might have overheard their conversation.Shang Xuechen lowered his head and grabbed the two sleeves of his suit and sniffed it under his nose, "He used to cover me with a coat, which helped me to avoid a lot of eyes. At that time, there were many people outside with cameras pointing at me. , A lot of flashing lights hurt my eyes. But he covered me with his clothes and made me feel safe."

It turned out to be like this.Brother Zhou and Yuan Li'an fell silent, remembering that Ji Shuping covered him with his coat and led him out of the casino yesterday.

Brother Zhou watched Shang Xuechen happily drink the porridge with a spoon, and remembered that Ji Shuping told him that he could only drink porridge in the past few days, it seemed that it was because of psychological problems that affected the body's digestive system.He looked at Shang Xuechen, who was eating deliciously, and asked Yuan Li'an beside him, "Do you think we usually pay too little attention to him? Or..."

Brother Zhou didn't go on, but Yuan Li'an knew what he was going to say, otherwise how could he not even know that he had such a serious defect.Yuan Li'an looked at Shang Xuechen who was covered with clothes and had a happy face, "But it's okay, doesn't he have someone who only cares about him?"
