MTL - After Being Forced To Kiss the Boss-Chapter 18 Candy is more suitable
Li Wanqiu followed Ji Jinyan to a small shop and sat down.
It is a clean and warm shop. The shop is not big, but it is very neat and tidy. The aroma that permeates the whole body is very pleasant and appetizing.
"Xiao Ji is here!" The proprietress seemed to be quite familiar with Ji Jinyan. As soon as the two entered, she greeted them very warmly.
"Long time no see." Ji Jin said, returning a polite smile.
"Is it the same?" the proprietress asked, with a kind smile in her eyes, "where's the girl next to her?"
After finishing speaking, Li Wanqiu looked up at Ji Jinyan, and whispered, "What is the old way?"
"This." Ji Jinyan said, pointing to the set menu on the menu.
Li Wanqiu lowered her eyes to look, and found that the food in the set meal was also her favorite, so she nodded and said yes.
"I want one too..." she said, she searched the menu carefully, but she didn't find the name of the set meal, she paused, and simply imitated Ji Jinyan's tone, "This is the same."
As soon as the words fell, the corners of Ji Jinyan's lips slightly raised.
"What's the matter?" Li Wanqiu realized the smile on her lips, and felt a little embarrassed, coughed lightly and asked in a low voice, "What are you laughing at?"
"It's nothing." Ji Jinyan shook his head, turned around and took the bowls and chopsticks, and told Li Wanqiu to find a seat he liked, "Are there any taboos?"
"No." Li Wanqiu said.
"Okay." Ji Jinyan answered her, watched her sit down at the table, then turned around, and exchanged a few words with the proprietress while waiting.
It was still raining outside, and the pattering sound came in through the crack of the window. It was very obvious that Li Wanqiu didn't hear the content of the conversation between the two of them clearly, but only noticed the faint smile hidden in Ji Jin's tone.
It was so relaxing that she couldn't help but think of the time when the two of them went to visit Mr. Liu together a long time ago.
While in a daze, Ji Jinyan had already returned with food.
"Which one do you want?" she asked afterward.
Li Wanqiu looked up and felt that the sandwich on her right hand looked better, so she raised her finger and said, "This one."
"Here." Ji Jinyan nodded, and pushed the tray in front of her.
"Thank you." Li Wanqiu thanked her, picked up the chopsticks to pick up the side dish and put it in his mouth to chew. When he found the taste was good, the corners of his lips raised subconsciously, "This is delicious."
"How did you find this store?" Then she asked, "It doesn't seem to be easy to find here."
"I came here many times when I was young." Ji Jinyan said, "The food here has always been delicious, and I will always remember it even when I grow up."
Li Wanqiu paused: "When I was a child?"
"Yes." Ji Jinyan smiled and looked up at her, "I used to live nearby for many years."
After finishing speaking, Li Wanqiu was a little surprised.
— She said she lived here when she was a child.
Li Wanqiu is not so familiar with this area, but he also knows that this is not a bustling and lively area. Bixia was founded by Ji Jinyan's grandfather, but within a few years it has gained a firm foothold in the entire wine industry, and later won numerous awards. Praise, as a holder, Ji Lao has a lot of funds in his hands, and it should not be a problem to provide a better life for his family.
At that time, she had heard Assistant An mention that Mr. Ji had real estate all over the country, not only covering a large area, but also in a very good location.
In this case... why did Ji Jinyan live here when he was a child?
Li Wanqiu was a little puzzled for a while, but after all, it was Ji Jinyan's family matter, so it was not easy for her to ask, so she paused and swallowed all her questions.
Only said: "You are a very nostalgic person."
As soon as the words fell, Ji Jinyan suddenly smiled: "Hearing what you said, it seems that I am indeed getting old."
"No." Li Wanqiu felt helpless when he heard the words. He didn't know how long this person would keep his grudge, so he said quickly, "You are not old at all, you are very young, very young."
"Oh~" Ji Jinyan raised his eyebrows in response, and the ending sound was a bit long.
Li Wanqiu paused for a moment, seeing that she was silent, she felt that she still wanted to continue listening, so she could only bite the bullet and say, "Besides, you are so beautiful, and you are very successful in your career, with many achievements that no one else can envy. .”
Ji Jinyan smiled: "You think I'm pretty?"
Li Wanqiu: "..."
Li Wanqiu sighed: "Ah, yes, very, beautiful."
After finishing speaking, the smile in Ji Jinyan's eyes grew stronger: "I've recorded it."
"What..." Li Wanqiu was taken aback, and subconsciously sat up straight. She was about to ask her to delete it, but before she could speak, she suddenly realized that she hadn't touched the phone since the moment Ji Jinyan sat here. Only then did she realize that she was teasing herself again.
"Bad guy." She parted her lips involuntarily, expressing her dissatisfaction righteously.
"Record this sentence, too."
After eating, the weather seemed to be about to clear up.
Li Wanqiu and Ji Jinyan got into the car together, the car continued to drive for more than ten minutes, and finally arrived at the destination.
Due to the weather, not many people came to see the exhibition at the moment. The two quickly entered the exhibition hall and slowly browsed the paintings displayed around them.
The theme of this art exhibition is collision, just like the paintings hanging on the wall, some are made by veterans, some are made by newcomers, with different styles and contents, but when put together, they are not the same. People find it weird.
It is even quite aesthetic, allowing people to see the fusion of history and future, the collision of new and old.
Li Wanqiu carefully read each and every one of them, and learned a lot from them, and gained a lot of inspiration.
It was almost noon by the time I browsed through all the exhibition halls.
"Are you tired?" Ji Jinyan asked her.
"A little bit." Li Wanqiu said, subconsciously raised her eyes, "What about you?"
"It's okay." Ji Jinyan said, taking out his mobile phone to search for nearby restaurants, "Let's go have lunch together later."
"Okay." Li Wanqiu nodded, and walked out side by side with her. The rain had stopped now, but the temperature around her was still a little cold.
She glanced at it, and suddenly noticed a milk tea shop nearby: "Would you like a cup of milk tea, I invite you."
"En." Ji Jinyan answered her without refusing, "Thank you."
"Then you wait here for me, there are a lot of people queuing over there." Li Wanqiu said, and arranged for Ji Jinyan to wait at the same spot, then quickly turned around and queued up to buy milk tea.
The milk tea shop has recently launched several new products, and it is said that the response has been very good. Li Wanqiu picked two of the most popular flavors and paid for them.
After that, she turned around and walked back slowly, her gaze subconsciously raised, looking for Ji Jinyan in the crowd.
Soon, she found it.
As she said, Ji Jinyan really didn't walk away, and still stood there without moving, but he didn't look over at the moment, but turned to the direction when the two came, just like that night, his fingertips still A small fire went out.
For some reason, Li Wanqiu suddenly slowed down.
She didn't seem to like Ji Jinyan's appearance when he was smoking. It wasn't that she disliked this behavior, but that Ji Jinyan like that was very different from usual.
Although she was still good-looking, mature and sexy, there was clearly something more besides these.
For example... some unexplainable loneliness and sadness.
Li Wanqiu didn't know why she thought of these two words, but she felt that these words were most suitable for Ji Jinyan at this moment, so she paused and continued to move forward.
Ji Jinyan seemed to have noticed her approach, and extinguished the cigarette in his hand a second before she was about to approach.
Opening his lips, the words were still the same as that night: "Li Wanqiu, stay away, don't choke you."
His tone sounded a little different from usual.
Li Wanqiu raised her eyes to look at hers, not understanding the cause and effect of the incident, and not knowing what to say, so she was silent for a moment, and expressed it with actions.
Noticing that Ji Jinyan's pocket was bulging, she felt that her cigarette should be there, so she simply reached out and took it out on her own, then pulled out the lighter and lit one silently.
Seriously said: "I want to smoke too."
After finishing speaking, he bit the cigarette into his mouth coolly and took a sharp puff, but was choked and coughed in the next second, and tears were forced out of the corners of his eyes.
Red, very cute, but also makes people feel distressed.
"Ji Jinyan, what kind of cigarette are you?" she said, and it took her a while to calm down, her tone was a little uncomfortable, "It smells good, why do you smoke so much..."
Before she finished speaking, Ji Jinyan suddenly moved closer, and raised her hand to smoke the cigarette in her hand. The warm fingertips passed over her fingertips, like a small fire that could resist the cold wind.
Li Wanqiu paused, perhaps because of her touch, her heart subconsciously slowed down for half a beat, before she could move, something replaced the cigarette, and Ji Jinyan put it back in her palm.
It's a...lollipop.
"I bought the cigarettes a long time ago, and I have forgotten the brand." Ji Jinyan said, raising his hand and throwing the pack of cigarettes directly into the trash can beside him, "You are right, it is really not very good to smoke."
"I'll forget it, I can barely accept it." She laughed, then looked into Li Wanqiu's eyes, and said softly: "But for you, candy is more suitable."
