Just when she was having a headache, footsteps were heard coming from outside.
"Mr. Yu!"
With a respectful call, everyone in the customs office stood up. Even the person who had just spoken to Jing Yu with a cold face changed his expression.
She looked back and was surprised.
She didn't expect to meet the man named Yu Zeyao whom she had met a few days ago.
He was still dressed in formal clothes like before, with a few people following him. He looked around and saw her, but they only exchanged glances, and he spoke in a low voice to the foreign man who came out to greet him. It looked as if he had not remembered who she was at all, after all, they had only met by chance the previous two times.
She couldn't understand the fluent foreign language.
Probably because they were discussing business, she did not come forward to say hello. Moreover, if he did not recognize her, it would make people think that she was trying to establish a relationship with him.
The staff members who had dealt with her before, both men and women, were all staring at Yu Zeyao who had just come in with great interest, and had no intention of helping her with her affairs. Jing Yu wanted to urge them twice, but then he thought that if he irritated them again, it would implicate Jinnian, so he had to sit aside and wait patiently.
She sat there patiently, and when she looked up, she saw Yu Zeyao's back. The man was tall and strong, and he was comparable to the bodyguards who followed him. However, unlike the bodyguards, his muscles were not overdeveloped, and he was just the right size.
Jing Yu couldn't help but think of the scene when he tied her tie in his car that day, and the heat in his palms seemed to surge up again.
Wait, that tie clip.
Jing Yu felt very regretful. She didn't expect that she would meet him again. If she had known this, she should have kept the little thing in her bag.
"Mr. Yu, please come in. We can talk for a moment." Jing Yu understood what he said. When she came back to her senses, she saw Yu Zeyao being invited into the office.
At this moment, her cell phone rang. Qi Jinnian must have been impatient waiting. She took out her cell phone from her bag and was about to answer the call when a deep voice sounded above her head, "Do you need help?"
Jing Yu was confused for a moment, then looked up and saw the man who had already walked into the office standing in front of him.
It seems that he is not completely without impression of me.
Jing Yu muted his phone, stood up, and shook his head, "No, it's just a small problem."
He gave people a strong sense of strangeness, and people didn't want to bother him casually.
"Mr. Yu, you... you know each other?" The man who just handled the matter for Jing Yu looked back and forth between the two people in disbelief, looking at one and then the other.
"Friend." Yu Zeyao only said these two simple words, his eyes still looking at Jing Yu.
The word "friend" made the other person's expression change again and again.
"What does this lady want to do?" A man who seemed to be a leader came over and asked.
The staff member who had just received Jing Yu hurriedly told him the whole story. When the leader heard it, he took out two pieces of paper and rolled them into a cylinder and knocked on the other person's head twice, "What a stupid person! You have to deal with hundreds of such trivial matters every day, and you are making things difficult for a girl. You did it on purpose, didn't you?"
"I'm not in a particularly difficult situation. I just came to her to find out more about the situation." The other party explained aggrievedly.
"Hurry up and help the girl solve the problem!"
"I'll do it right away." The man responded and hurried to get the tax bill.
Jing Yu didn't expect that such a difficult matter for him could be easily solved because of his word "friend".
"Thank you." Jing Yu said to him.
"It won't be a problem if you go to the post office and pay the tax." Yu Zeyao said in a serious tone, "But I hope you can remind your friend not to make the same mistake again next time."
"I'll tell her."
This person is too serious, so serious that it is intimidating. Jing Yu feels very stressed. She thinks, it is hard for people to make friends with such a person, right
Yu Zeyao didn't say anything else, just looked at her again and turned around.
"By the way, Mr. Yu..." Jing Yu remembered something and called him.
He turned back, "Huh?"
"This..." She pointed her finger into the air, "Last time I accidentally took away one of your tie clips."
"Well, that's a gift from my mother." He put one hand in his pocket and didn't seem surprised at all.
Jing Yu felt a little sorry when he heard him say that, "I originally wanted to bring it to my wife when Professor Luo came over again - so I didn't bring it with me today."
"Take it with you from now on." Yu Zeyao glanced at her with a deep gaze, "Maybe, we'll meet again someday. Just like today."
Jing Yu always felt that there was something meaningful in his words, but when he thought about it carefully, there was nothing wrong.
———
After completing the formalities, Jingyu brought Qi Jinnian out, and Qi Jinnian hugged and kissed her excitedly.
"Okay, stop kissing me. I just ate a donut and my mouth is full of oil." Jing Yu smiled and pulled her away. She breathed a sigh of relief because the matter was finally properly resolved.
"You don't know, I stayed in there for so long that I was already mad. The girls next to me were still there! They must have been scared too." Qi Jinnian took out a tissue from her bag to wipe her mouth, and then reapplied her makeup, muttering, "My makeup was ruined."
"You should be thankful that you came out of this unharmed. Don't do this again next time. Also, you should control your temper and stop getting angry at everyone. You should learn how to read people's expressions."
"I know, you taught me a lesson, I won't dare to do it again next time." Qi Jinnian put away the powder and put his arm around her shoulders, "Yu'er, tell me the truth, did you use some kind of honey trap? Otherwise, why are they so easy to talk to when they meet you? You don't know how fierce they are to me!"
"It has nothing to do with me. I am just a... friend—" Jing Yu thought of the word 'friend' he said. But they were not actually friends, and those two words were just polite words.
"Friend?" Qi Jinnian asked, dragging his suitcase, "Male or female? What do you do? Do I know you?"
"You don't. Okay, let's get going. Is your car in the parking lot?"
"Hmm." Qi Jinnian was still confused, "You don't have any friends that I don't know. What kind of friends are you talking about?"
"You have to dig deep into every little thing."
Qi Jinnian laughed, "That's right. I've only been abroad for two days, and you've already hooked up with a new lover. What if one day you end up abandoning me? I have to know who the other person is."
