MTL - Seventh Year of My Secret Love for You-Chapter 42
Rocky came home and her mother came out of the room.
Jiang Yifang looked at the clock on the wall, "So fast? Didn't you say you're going to have supper?"
"I ate." I could only lie one lie after another, "I bought skewers in the alley, and just finished eating after chatting."
The glass vase was put away by my mother, and she found it to fill it with water.
Jiang Yifang saw the sunflowers on the tea table. In fact, two or three sunflowers are enough. Too many are a waste of money, but he didn't say anything to spoil the fun.
"Today's sunflowers are beautifully wrapped."
Luo Qi said 'hmm', and came out of the bathroom with a vase in her hand, "It just so happens that the store is not busy, the boss has time to choose wrapping paper."
The wrapping paper was chosen by Jiang Shenghe himself.
Professor Liang is coming to Sioux City tomorrow, and Luo Qi asked her mother about the arrangement.
"Mom, are you free tomorrow?"
"Free, do you want to go shopping?"
"No. Professor Liang will come over tomorrow and should ask you to meet in the afternoon."
The daughter told her that night when she came back, and Jiang Shenghe's mother asked her to design.
She was under inexplicable pressure. She had taken on a big project in the first half of the year, and she had some experience in decorating villas, but the other party was Liang Zhen, so she didn't know what to do.
Jiang Yueru has helped their family a lot, and she usually takes good care of her daughter. Now her daughter is Jiang Shenghe's assistant. Even if she can't take over the job by herself, she will do her best to help check the decoration on site.
Luo Qi put the flowers in a vase, thinking that Jiang Shenghe would come to see her very early tomorrow morning, "Mom, you don't have to cook tomorrow, I'll go out and buy."
"Don't you sleep much?"
"I'm used to getting up early and can't fall asleep."
"By the way, you don't need to buy your dad's breakfast, he will eat at the company tomorrow."
Luo Qi took a bath and lay down on the bed, the images of Jiang Shenghe walking across the bridge with her in her mind.
Nerves were excited, and I didn't sleep until the second half of the night.
Woke up naturally at 5:30 in the morning.
Luo Yu sent her two messages, one at two in the morning and one at five twenty-five.
【Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! Sis, I'm crazy! 】
【Sister, I’m finished, I won’t have a good life in this life (burst of tears) (burst of tears) (heartbreak)]
She hasn't slept all night.
Luo Qi dialed the phone, but no one answered the ring.
The latest message was sent five minutes ago, so it's impossible to fall asleep so quickly.
The phone kept vibrating, and even the pillow buzzed.
He Xu was woken up, upset by the noise, opened his eyes, took a few seconds to see where the phone was, touched it, and a note was displayed on the phone screen: My sister is the most beautiful
Look at the phone case again, it's gaudy, it's Luo Yu's phone.
He Xu turned off the phone and put it on silent, and there was the sound of running water from the bathroom.
He woke up and rubbed the bridge of his nose.
When I met Luo Yu downstairs in the company last night, she was filled with righteous indignation and eccentricity, connoting that he was not a man, and he was picking on her everywhere because of a kiss.
He also said he couldn't afford it.
"Luo Yu, don't be stubborn, you can afford it?"
"Anyway, I can afford it better than you. One kiss, and you're going to die."
It's useless to say whether you can afford it or not, so this scene happened.
Before coming to the hotel, they didn't drink a drop of wine and were very sober.
Ten minutes later, Luo Yu came out of the bathroom, and she was startled when she saw the man leaning against the bed smoking a cigarette. He was still in a deep sleep just now.
She has been fully dressed, but now her legs are sore and her back is sore, and she has difficulty walking.
Enduring the discomfort, she walked over to get the phone, completely treating He Xu as air.
In fact, his heart was already in his throat, and he didn't dare to look at him at all.
He Xu put out the cigarette, "Is this cowardly?"
Luo Yu snorted coldly, even if she is cowardly, it is impossible to admit cowardly.
She took the phone and operated it, grabbed her bag, turned around and left.
A message came in from He Xu's cell phone, he clicked on it, and Luo Yu transferred him several thousand dollars, half of the room fee.
Walking out of the hotel, Luo Yu patted his heart vigorously, finally able to catch his breath.
She returned a message to her cousin: [Sister, I worked overtime all night and scolded that villain from Party A, but it's okay, this is not the first time I scolded him. I'm so sleepy, I'll talk to you when I wake up. 】
[By the way, sister, the washing machine in the newly rented house is too old. I bought a small one for washing close-fitting clothes. I will put it in your place first. After Miss 202 moves the things away, I will move there directly. . 】
Luo Qi: [Just let it go. Then go to bed quickly, staying up all night is too depressing. 】
Walking up the stone bridge, Jiang Shenghe was already waiting for her under the bridge. She put away her mobile phone and walked down the steps quickly.
"When will Professor Liang arrive?"
"Noon." Jiang Shenghe said: "In the afternoon, we will go to see the villa first, and then go to see our own house."
Yesterday's kiss seemed to still have an aftertaste. Luo Qi never looked at him, wondering when the turmoil in her heart would return to calm.
After buying breakfast, Jiang Shenghe sent her to the entrance of the alley.
Luo Qi turned around, before saying goodbye, the expression on her face was condensed, she saw her mother coming down from the stone bridge, she should be going to throw out the trash.
"My mother is behind you." She lowered her voice and said to Jiang Shenghe.
Jiang Yifang thought it was her daughter's boyfriend who chased her to Sucheng to see her daughter, no matter her height or temperament, she matched her daughter very well.
It was very embarrassing to meet in such a situation, and I was thinking of retreating to the stone bridge to avoid it, but I didn't know that my daughter and her boyfriend both looked over.
"Mom." Luo Qi called her loudly and waved at her.
When her mother approached, she calmly introduced: "Mom, this is our President Jiang, come and pick us up to see the house."
Jiang Yifang: "..."
It turned out to be a misunderstanding.
"Hello, Auntie, I'm Jiang Shenghe."
"Hello, I often hear Luo Qi mentioning you, thank you for taking care of us Luo Qi."
"Auntie, you are polite, you should."
Luo Qi stood aside and listened silently. After two full minutes, the two finally finished exchanging greetings.
Jiang Yifang asked Jiang Shenghe to sit at home, "Come in and have a glass of water."
Jiang Shenghe declined, he did not forget that he is the boss of Luo Qi, and Luo Qi is a subordinate of the opposite sex, so it is not easy to disturb others early in the morning.
"No, you guys have dinner, I'll wait for you in the car."
Jiang Yifang was originally cramped and his family was too small, and he was afraid that the hospitality would not be good, so if he didn't go, he wouldn't go, and there was no good tea at home.
"Luo Qi and I will be there in a while, please make a trip yourself."
"No trouble, the hotel is nearby."
Jiang Shenghe said goodbye, and looked at Luo Qi with cold eyes, "I will call the driver in a while, and the car will stop not far ahead."
"Alright Mr. Jiang, go slowly."
"..."
After entering the house, Jiang Yifang breathed a sigh of relief, "How did your boss Jiang find the door?"
Luo Qi had already finished the draft: "Meet me at the intersection, he saw that I was carrying breakfast in my hand, and he was afraid of getting cold, so he walked all the way to tell me a few things about work."
Jiang Yifang was convinced, and said with emotion: "You are lucky, the two bosses you met are good."
After a hasty breakfast, Luo Qi and her mother went out.
Professor Liang hasn't arrived yet, she sent a message to Jiang Shenghe while walking: [Go to the villa now? Don't wait for Professor Liang? 】
Jiang Shenghe: [Go to our new house first, if you don't like anything, just ask Auntie to redesign it. 】
The car was waiting for them at the entrance of the flower shop, Jiang Yifang sat in the passenger seat, Luo Qi and Jiang Shenghe sat in the back row.
"Aunt Jiang, let me show you my other house first."
Jiang Yifang turned around, "Do you want to decorate?"
"Yes." Jiang Shenghe said, "My wife and I lived in that apartment when we came to Sioux City for vacation."
Rocky: "..."
The first time I heard him call his wife was in front of her mother.
Jiang Yifang didn't know that Jiang Shenghe was married, so congratulations first.
The house that is going to be the wedding room is also a lake view room, in another community.
Jiang Yifang couldn't see where it needed to be redecorated. This was a decoration plan designed by a well-known designer.
Jiang Shenghe looked at Luo Qi: "Luo Zhu, you can contact my wife and see what she thinks needs to be changed."
Luo Qi said solemnly, "Good job, Mr. Jiang."
"Thanks a lot."
"..."
When are the days of acting coming to an end.
Jiang Shenghe answered a phone call, and Luo Qi accompanied her mother to go around all the rooms. It took more than half an hour to go through hundreds of square meters.
Jiang Yifang said to her daughter: "I don't think there is any need to change it. Partial changes will affect the overall effect. It is a big project to reinstall it, and it is really unnecessary."
Luo Qi also thinks it's good, and it's not a permanent residence. She comes back and lives for ten or eight days a year, just like her mother said, it's really unnecessary.
"I'll tell President Jiang when I get back."
There are a total of three terraces in this flat, with a panoramic view of the lake.
Jiang Yifang stood on the terrace feeling lost. She wanted to buy a lake-view house for her daughter before, and she had already prepared the down payment, but something happened to the company.
"Mom, what are you thinking?" Luo Qi leaned on her mother's shoulder.
Jiang Yifang smiled: "I'm thinking, how to adjust the terrace so as not to affect the overall style, so we can't waste such a good lake view."
"Okay, you come up with a plan, and I will show it to Mr. Jiang."
It was almost noon when Liang Zhen arrived at the station after returning from the lake view room to the old city. The driver picked her up to meet Jiang Sheng and them, and made an appointment to have dinner together.
The two in-laws who had been kept in the dark met like this.
The restaurant was the same one they had dinner with after Chulin's concert last year.
Reserved a table for four people, Luo Qi sat with Jiang Yifang, Jiang Shenghe sat side by side with Liang Zhen.
Although it was the first time they met, Jiang Yifang had a conversation with Liang Zhen because of Jiang Yueru's relationship.
Luo Qi asked Jiang Shenghe: "Boss Jiang, do you want some tea?"
Liang Zhen, who was chatting with Jiang Yifang, was suddenly discouraged when she heard Luo Qi being so polite, and called Mr. Jiang that's all, but also respectfully called "you".
When it was almost finished, Luo Qi received a call from Chu Lin.
Chu Lin had just left the high-speed rail station, and asked her if she was free in the afternoon to go shopping and drink coffee.
Luo Qi: "It will be a little later. Professor Liang and Mr. Jiang are here today to talk about the design plan. You recommended my mother."
Chu Lin even forgot about it, "Then you do your work first, I'll wait for your call."
Jiang Shenghe whispered to her: "I'll accompany them there, you go shopping with Chu Lin."
Liang Zhen also agreed with her son, saying that she is not needed to accompany him.
Luo Qi and Chu Lin made an appointment to meet.
She arrived at the cafe early, and Chu Lin was still halfway.
Rocky ordered a cup of coffee, and her cousin called her to ask where she was.
"I went shopping with a friend, brother, what's the matter?"
Luo Yuli asked first: "Are you dating a friend or a boyfriend?"
"...Friend, Chu Lin, that pianist, didn't I tell you before that I went to her concert, and I have been in touch with her all the time. She came to Su City today, and I will accompany her for a stroll."
No answer on the phone.
"elder brother?"
"Driving, you say."
"Are you looking for me?"
"I bought two bags, one for you and Luo Yu."
Luo Yuli explained: "By the way, I bought two more."
It should be to buy a bag for his girlfriend, and bring one for her and Luo Yu.
Luo Yuli asked again: "Where is it, I will send it there now."
"I'll go get it tonight."
"You don't have a car, it's inconvenient. I'm fine this afternoon."
Luo Yuli is nearby, come over soon, and he delivers the bag to the cafe.
My cousin was wearing a gray suit with a black shirt inside, and received several attentions as soon as he entered the door.
Luo Yuli gave her two shopping bags, "Your friend is gone?"
Luo Qi took the shopping bag and put it on the chair next to her, "Not here yet."
"Then you wait slowly." Luo Yuli left the cafe.
As soon as he left, Chu Lin came in from another door of the cafe.
Luo Qi said with a smile: "You can meet my brother half a minute earlier, and I will introduce you to each other next time."
"Really." Chu Lin forced a smile on the corner of her mouth, pretending to think of it suddenly: "My brain, I didn't take off my phone in the car, so you can order a drink for me, as you like."
After leaving the cafe, she almost ran to the side of the road, looking around, but there was no familiar figure.
Luo Yuli was in the car not far away, and he wanted to open the window but didn't.
Chu Lin returned to the cafe in despair, but when she saw Luo Qi, she smiled again.
For the next two months, Chu Lin didn't arrange any work for herself, so she asked Luo Qi how she was doing.
Luo Qi told Chu Lin that she was transferred from the president's office and went to Ruipu Medical, and it will be difficult to have a leisurely life in the future.
"The company arranged for you to go to Ruipu?"
"I applied for it myself."
Chu Lin didn't know Yuanwei Group or Ruipu Medical, so she thought that the new position had more room for advancement.
"Luo Yu is going to move? I see that those little flowers and grasses that her circle of friends said are going to a new place again."
"Well, rent in the unit next door to mine."
"That's so convenient. I'm free. I'll go to Luo Yu on weekends and learn baking from Luo Yu. Aren't you busy? The two of us will take care of the logistics for you. Don't say it, I quite like your hut .”
Rocky: "..."
Jiang Shenghe should be heartbroken.
Halfway through the holiday, both parents started to get busy, and it was inconvenient for Luo Qi to have a date at home. On the 5th, she returned to Beijing from Suzhou City. This year's eight-day long holiday, there are three more days to accompany Jiang Shenghe.
When the vacation is over, she goes to work in Ruipu, and she doesn't meet every day.
Jiang Shenghe went back with her, and he bought the return ticket, a business seat.
On business trips before, their seats were separated by an aisle and a baffle, but this time Jiang Shenghe bought a ticket for two seats next to each other.
Luo Qi sat in the seat by the window and felt that Jiang Shenghe was looking at her. She took pictures outside the window with her mobile phone. She took a lot of scenery along the road in different seasons.
Jiang Shenghe remembered the first time she came to Suzhou City on business with her, and she took pictures outside the window.
"Rocky."
He called her, and she had to turn back.
"President Jiang, what's the matter?"
Jiang Shenghe no longer has to worry about what she should call him, he can call him whatever he wants.
He asked, "Do you want to create a shared photo album?"
Luo Qi hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "OK."
"Mr. Jiang, do you also like to take pictures?"
"I can't say I like it. I have taken three or four photos in a few years."
Soon, the shared album will be created.
Jiang Shenghe asked her to upload all the landscape photos she usually took to the shared album.
Luo Qi turned her head to look at him, "My photography skills are average, and they are all landscape photos, which may be a bit boring."
"It's not boring." He said, "You took a picture and I gave you a review."
The first photo that Jiang Shenghe shared in the shared album was the back photo of the two of them on the rainy night in Sioux City.
Rocky first picked out a few photos she had taken of him at the financial summit that day.
"Boss Jiang."
"Um."
In a few minutes, she called President Jiang three times.
"Is the screen saver of your mobile phone a picture from the Internet or taken by yourself?" Luo Qi asked him.
Jiang Shenghe said: "I took the picture."
Luo Qi glanced at his screensaver before, and the color tone made people's eyes clear. That day, the sky was blue and cloudy, and there were row upon row of tall buildings. His angle of capture was good.
"Can you pass it on to me?"
"Yes." Jiang Shenghe found the photo and sent it to her.
Her back was mixed with the crowds in the distance, and it was hard to recognize her without zooming in.
Luo Qi didn't even think that she was on it, so she set this photo as the chat background picture.
After setting up the background picture, she shared the picture of her favorite tavern with Jiang Shenghe.
"Mr. Jiang, I will invite you to the tavern next time."
Jiang Shenghe's voice was pampering: "Okay."
Seeing the signboard of the tavern, "You come, I'm still here", he said, "I also took a picture."
"You also took the name of the tavern?"
"no."
"show me."
Luo Qi rested her arms on the armrest in the middle of the seat, wanting to see from which angle Jiang Shenghe took pictures of the tavern.
Jiang Shenghe turned to her side and zoomed in on the photo.
In the photo, she is taking pictures of the sign of the tavern.
She was filming the bistro, and he was filming her.
Luo Qi's eyes moved from the phone screen to his face, "Thank you Mr. Jiang. I will take pictures of you in the future."
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Sheng kissed her.
He blocked the right side, and the people on the other side of the aisle couldn't see what they were doing.
Jiang Shenghe held the mobile phone, but his hands remained there without moving.
Rocky raised her head slightly, responding to his kiss.
She wanted to find a support point, and touched his sleeve with her left hand.
All kisses are possessive.
Luo Qi withdrew her body, their lips parted, and she kissed him on the cheek again, ending this unexpected and inappropriate kiss.
After kissing, she put her forehead on his shoulder, pretending nothing happened, and looked at the photos in the shared album.
Jiang Shenghe sat upright, without moving his arm, and lent it to her to lean on. He crossed his legs and clicked on the picture she took at the financial summit.
After a while, Luo Qi also sat down.
She shared all the photos she took in the past year to the shared album, and Jiang Shenghe looked at them all the way.
Jiang Shenghe's final comment to her is: master of P pictures.
Back at the rental house, Luo Qi opened the window for ventilation, and Jiang Shenghe carried her suitcase to the bedroom.
He received a call from an overseas branch, and there was an urgent email for him to reply.
When they went out to eat, they were worried that they would meet people from the Yuanwei Group, and they would not know what rumors would spread, so the two decided to have a simple meal at home.
Jiang Shenghe plans to make venetian meat for Luo Qi. He has learned from Teacher Chen, and he can basically become a teacher now.
Luo Qi put on her coat and went to buy ingredients.
Jiang Shenghe: "Wait a minute, I'll deal with the email and stay with you."
"No need." Luo Qi changed her shoes, "I happened to drive the car to be washed, you can get busy with work." She pointed to the notebook on the table: "If the mobile phone is inconvenient, you can use my computer."
She told him what the power-on code was.
Luo Qi took her mobile phone and car keys and went downstairs. When the door was closed, she glanced at Jiang Shenghe again. There was someone at home, so she didn't need to bring the keys when she went out.
The road downstairs is not spacious. When there are many electric vehicles and pedestrians, the two-way meeting vehicles have to drive slowly to avoid scratches.
Luo Qi drove very slowly, and a rough black off-road vehicle came across. The tree shadows danced on the front windshield, the glass reflected light, and the man was wearing sunglasses, Luo Qi couldn't see who was in the car.
He Xu put one hand on the outside of the car, held the steering wheel with one hand, and drove anxiously through the most congested place in this section.
When he finally reached his destination, he pulled over the car.
A few days passed, she didn't show her face, and pretended to be dead with him.
[Go downstairs! Is it because you are not feeling well and inconvenient to work overtime? I have sent you the materials. 】
Luo Yu: [Why do you have to go against me? He Xu, if you can't afford it, just say so! 】
In a rage, he called Party A's father by his name.
He Xu: [Stop rambling, go downstairs to get the materials! 】
She said she was sick, and he came to see if she was really sick or pretending to be sick.
Five minutes later, Luo Yu replied to him: [Where are you? 】
[Your house is downstairs! 】
[I'm just downstairs in my house, no one is there! 】
He Xu was so angry that he laughed back. Looking at the row of buildings to the end, there was not even a ghost at the door.
【Okay, don't bother you to come down, I'll send it up for you. 】
He got out of the car with the document bag, and slammed the door behind him.
Furious all the way, he knocked on the door of 301.
"it's me!"
The door opened, and He Xu froze.
"...President Jiang."
Just say why she didn't go downstairs, it turned out that there was another one at home.
Jiang Shenghe didn't know when Luo Qi became so familiar with He Xu, so familiar that he directly asked He Xu to come to the house, and it was only when he was there.
He greeted: "Come in and sit."
There was only one pair of men's slippers at home, so Jiang Shenghe found a disposable shoe cover for him: "Let's make do."
He Xu is not advancing or retreating now, he has never been passive before.
If Luo Yu sleeps with more than one of him during a holiday, he can just strangle her to death.
"President Jiang, why are you here?"
Jiang Shenghe didn't answer but instead asked, "What's the matter with you coming here?"
He Xu was confused: "I'm just like you."
Jiang Shenghe: "..."
My heart said, can you be like me?
He Xu glanced into the bedroom, but there was no one there.
"Where are the Luo Yu people?"
Jiang Shenghe found a cup to pour water for He Xu, "You are her boss, you don't even know, how would I know."
"No..." Looking at Jiang Shenghe calmly, He Xu simply pointed out: "Mr. Jiang, there are some things... You and I may both be victims. Luo Yu is in two boats. You don't know her Where are you now, how did you get in? Do you have the key to her house?"
Forgot to care about the man's self-esteem, the following few words are sour.
Jiang Shenghe frowned, and stared up at him, "This is Luo Qi's house, you have found the wrong place."
He Xu: "..."
I wish I could find a place to bury myself in.
"Sorry, I thought this was Luo Yu's newly rented house."
That day when he went to Luo Yu's office to find her, she was on the phone. She bought some big item and was making an appointment with the delivery person to deliver it to unit 301 of which building at six o'clock.
Who would have thought that Luo Qi lived here.
Jiang Shenghe brought him water, "It's all here, drink a glass of water before leaving."
He Xu didn't take the water glass, and couldn't stay for a second, "I won't bother you. I have something to do with Luo Yu."
"President Jiang, don't tell Luo Qi about this, Luo Yu probably doesn't want more people to know, thank you. Just pretend that I haven't been here, and I haven't seen you here. Let's blind each other for a while."
"excuse me."
He didn't even have time to take off his shoe covers, so he left in a hurry.
One step and two steps, the plastic shoe cover slipped, and he almost fell. He grabbed the handrail, and the handrail of the old house was not cleaned, so he caught a handful of dust.
If he doesn't kill Luo Yu today, it's hard to get rid of the hatred in his heart.
Jiang Shenghe closed the door, probably understanding the relationship between He Xu and Luo Yu.
Luo Qi came back more than an hour later, carrying two bags of ingredients.
Jiang Shenghe didn't mention He Xu's coming, and he didn't know what would happen to He Xu and Luo Yu in the end.
"Does Luo Yu come here often?"
"Well, she comes here almost every week. She has my key here, and I gave her one when I first rented the house."
Luo Qi told him again: "Luo Yu's previous house expires, and the newly rented house is in the next-door unit 202."
Jiang Shenghe: "..."
It means that he will often meet He Xu downstairs in the future.
"When Luo Yu moves here, it will be inconvenient for me to come here." He said.
Luo Qi nodded, it was quite inconvenient, and even nervous about dating.
"Meet at our villa later?"
"...Okay."
After November, she will go to Ruipu. The office of Ruipu is tens of kilometers away from Yuanwei Building. It is difficult to meet when she is busy. Maybe she has to work overtime on weekends.
Jiang Shenghe asked her: "Have you ever thought about moving there? Let's live together first, the room is up to you." Give her a period of psychological transition.
It's only been ten days since I received the certificate, Luo Qi really didn't think about it that much.
Jiang Shenghe discussed with her: "How about staying in the villa on Fridays and weekends, and you stay here at other times. It doesn't have to be weekends, the time is up to you."
If it was a weekend every time, Luo Yu would definitely become suspicious after a long time. As for the excuses to Luo Yu, it was easy to find, just say that he was on a business trip, and business trips were commonplace at Ruipu's side.
Having obtained the certificate, it is definitely unrealistic to live apart for a long time, and it is only by living together that we can get along.
Luo Qisi thought about it: "Try to stay on Fridays and weekends."
I don’t want to be under the same roof as my boss during the working day, and the pressure is too great, especially when I first arrived at Ruipu, there must be many difficult things.
Jiang Shenghe chooses the time as she pleases, and she decides that the weekend will be the weekend. "It starts this Friday," he said.
Luo Qi suddenly thought that today is Friday.
She hung up her coat and walked up to him, "Mr. Jiang."
"Well." He was more and more conniving at her calling him, "what's the matter?"
"Should I come over next week?"
Jiang Shenghe looked at her, "Is there anything else tonight?"
"..." Rocky paused, "No."
Jiang Shenghe said: "Then go tonight."
