Jiang Ningyu turned aside to let him in, "Why are you getting off work so late today?"
"I've been doing due diligence recently and I've been quite busy." He explained simply and gave her the gift box in his hand. "It was a wedding gift from a colleague."
She took it and said "Wow", "It's so beautiful!" Then she put it on the table and took it apart to take a look. It was an exquisite eight-piece set and the wedding candies were all Godiva chocolate truffles. It was obvious that a lot of thought had been put into it.
.
"Can you give me something to eat?" She turned her head in surprise, only to find Lin Xuyue sitting by the bed, staring straight at her.
She looked at her and thought her bathrobe was loose. She looked down and found that it was not there. She was just kneeling on a chair with one leg, exposing the gap like a cheongsam.
…This doesn’t count as exposure, does it?
Jiang Ningyu couldn't help but stretched out her hand and waved it in front of him, "Lin Xuyue?"
Lin Xuyue glanced at her and replied slowly, "I don't eat these. Don't you like sweet things?"
Jiang Ningyu smiled and nodded, closed the gift box, sat on the chair and asked him, "You seem to know that I didn't come home?"
"Um?"
"Today you suddenly asked me if I was at home...you usually don't care about this."
But he said, "So why didn't you go home?"
"Don't mention it." Since he asked, she sighed and told the truth, "Li Weiwei...didn't she ask the media to expose the matter? Those reporters didn't know how they found me. Someone came to my door every day in the past two days.
Today is even more exaggerated. When I got off work at 11:30, two reporters were still waiting at my door. They were very patient." After a pause, she said sadly, "I didn't dare to offend them, so I endured it.
Well, forget about staying in a hotel."
"In the past two days?" Lin Xuyue's expression changed slightly, "Why haven't I heard you mention it?"
"I can't tell you everything. What if you get annoyed and ignore me?" Jiang Ningyu fiddled with the plastic takeout bag and said plausibly.
"You can tell me anything you think is bad." Lin Xuyue added, "I don't find it annoying."
"That's what I'm saying..." She muttered half-way, holding back and not saying the second half of the sentence - but in what capacity should I complain to you?
She always felt that these words were making another request, so she continued in a joking way, "It would be bad if I depended on you."
Lin Xuyue looked at her steadily for two seconds, stood up, rummaged through her takeout bag, and asked, "Did you order the octopus balls?" He changed the subject.
"I got off work late. I originally wanted to eat something." She held her chin up and watched his beautiful hands unzip the bag and take out the fragrant takoyaki, duplicity, "but suddenly I'm not hungry anymore."
Hearing these words, a smile appeared on Lin Xuyue's face. He inserted a delicate octopus ball with a toothpick and brought it to her mouth.
She swallowed, couldn't hold it back, opened her mouth and ate.
"By the way, come with me to go somewhere this weekend." Lin Xuyue suddenly said.
"Okay." She chewed something and twitched her cheeks.
For some reason, Lin Xuyue stared at her for a long time, "Don't ask where you are going?"
"You can't sell me." She smiled at him, "So anywhere will do."
When she smiled like this, there was always a sense of naivety and innocence. The ambiguous lights of the hotel gave her eyes a lustrous luster, and Lin Xuyue suddenly reached out and touched her hair.
It’s a very gentle gesture, but it’s also reasonable. “How is the bag on your head?”
"It doesn't hurt. It's much better after it collapses."
"I'm also going to India at the beginning of the month."
"My bag... huh? What did you say?" Jiang Ningyu thought she heard wrongly and looked up at him in shock.
As if she was very satisfied with her reaction, Lin Xuyue showed an expression that wanted to laugh but was holding back, "I said, I also want to go to India for a business trip."
"What a coincidence?" Jiang Ningyu's eyes moved for a moment, "Isn't it also in Bangalore?"
"Aren't all the IT people over there?"
She said "Oh", "Then can I go and play with you?"
"When you have time, you can take each other to participate."
He answered so accurately that she wanted to tease him again.
So he said in a matter-of-fact tone, "Let's talk about the business trip. Your company is so close, so you shouldn't leave tonight, right?"
Lin Xuyue raised her eyebrows slightly as if she had a premonition, waiting for her to continue.
She continued, "But I only have one bed here, should we sleep together?"
He seemed to understand, and showed a half-smiling expression, "If you have needs, it's not like I can't satisfy you." His words were like a wolf, full of hints, but his expression was very playful, not the least bit charming.
Jiang Ningyu was not timid at all, she smiled gently and said, "Forget it, you may not be able to satisfy me."
Faced with her provocation, the man chuckled with unknown meaning, but did not argue on the topic, as if he knew very well to what extent his concentration would lose control.
"Okay, I'm going back." He looked at the time, stood up and said, "I have a morning meeting at seven o'clock tomorrow and I need to get up early."
Jiang Ningyu walked him to the door, holding her hand on the door frame, and winked at him deliberately, "Are you sure you don't want to stay?"
Unexpectedly, he gave me a rare warning with a glare, "If you don't want to regret it, don't provoke me all the time."
She then returned to normal obediently.
But after he left, the more Jiang Ningyu thought about it, the more something was wrong... She also went on a business trip to India? The time was almost the same? The business of their two companies shouldn't overlap?
She thought about it and decided to talk to him tomorrow.
There was a bustling night scene outside the floor-to-ceiling window, and there were still people partying late at night. But her world was quiet and empty, until her phone vibrated.
【Don’t think too much, go to bed early.】
The vacant space was filled again.
She held the message from Lin Xuyue and smiled stupidly.
…
Maybe it was because no one was seen after waiting all day. Jiang Ningyu went home the next day and didn't see the reporter again.
So I returned to the clean days of the past.
On the weekend, Jiang Ningyu got up early, put on full makeup seriously, put on a beautiful pink and purple floral dress, and started looking forward to it.
Although... Lin Xuyue didn't say where she was going, but it was still a date... right?
Consider it a date?
She looked at herself in the mirror carefully, and suddenly she felt like a moment had passed. Two years ago, her eyes were bright and lively, but now there was a hint of melancholy. Her smooth, natural hair had long been permed.
The big wave is more intellectual and gentle. Taste seems to have changed, but it seems to have not changed, but people have been reborn and can no longer be as carefree as before.
Has Linxu Yue changed?
She couldn't tell. There was a vague feeling of uneasiness in her heart. The reconciliation of their relationship was too smooth, which always made people feel like a dream. After waking up from the dream, the road was still facing the sky, and each side went half way.
But no matter what, as long as I can finally come out, so what if it’s a dream?
