[74]
And at this moment a few days later, the same thunder broke out in the sky.
The sky darkened rapidly, and the big raindrops fell, and the rain poured down like a waterfall, which was almost exactly the same as the rainstorm a few days ago. Ji Yanchen, who was chatting with Chi Qiu at Chi's house, bounced back on the spot in fright: "Damn, it's so big!" Thunder." He touched the goosebump on his arm, frowned, and complained, "I'm scared to death."
Chi Qiu couldn't help but said to him: "Why didn't I know you were afraid of thunder?"
"I was scared by the dog today. I'm afraid of everything. I'm afraid of you." Ji Yanchen quibbled, rubbing his hands and taking out his phone, tsk, "It's all over now, I have to go to another place." Go to the company. This pervert Lu Fengshen wasted my time so much that I almost forgot my business."
He got up and went to the inner guard in Chi Qiu's room to comb his hair.
In front of the mirror, Ji Yanchen saw the toiletries that were all placed in a fixed order, and he couldn't help feeling mixed feelings. After pretending to be blind for so many years, Chi Qiu has really become a "blind man".
Ji Yanchen took a deep breath and walked out of the inner guard. He saw Chi Qiu standing in front of the window watching the rain, his back was thin, adding a touch of loneliness in the gloom of the rainy day.
Soon, in order to avoid being discovered, Chi Qiu drew the curtains. He turned around and saw Ji Yanchen standing there silently: "What's the matter?" He walked to the door and held the doorknob, "I'll take you to the front yard."
Ji Yanchen ran forward a few steps, and pressed Chi Qiu's hand that was about to open the door.
Chi Qiu looked at him inexplicably: "What's wrong?"
Ji Yanchen scratched the back of his head hesitantly, and said after a while: "Now that Aunt Chi is divorced, and Chi Xia doesn't plan to go home, what should I do with your eyes?"
This procrastination and the second procrastination, another year will pass.
Before Chi Qiu could answer, he said, "You can't just pretend to be blind for the sake of Chi Xia's petty temper, right?"
As the youngest son of the Ji family, Ji Yanchen understands the importance of heirs to the family business. If it wasn't for Ji Feining's efforts, this burden would probably have crushed him by now. So he could understand Chi Lanyan's anxiety and strictness, but Chi Xia's childish and angry approach made Ji Yanchen really unable to understand.
It's not that Chi Qiu hasn't thought about this issue, it's just that he hasn't brought it to the table.
Ji Yanchen has always been big-hearted, so he approached quietly and said, "Actually, I have an idea." After that, he whispered two words in Chi Qiu's ear one after another, scaring Chi Qiu away a little bit, covering his ears.
Chi Qiu stammered: "Why, how can I tell him?"
"I think Lu Ming is just talking. He is actually quite nice. Last time when you were drunk, he lost his temper with me. It seems that he is really worried about you. You may not know it, but he secretly competed with me a few times. This time. It's absolutely amazing, I thought he wouldn't be jealous."
"Jealous?"
"The last time I took you to the bar for a drink, he was so angry with me, isn't that called jealousy?"
Chi Qiu shook his head and explained shamefully: "I vomited on him and caused him a lot of trouble, so he was angry, not jealous."
"Fart, it's me who vomited all over you!" Ji Yanchen exploded, straightened his body in an instant, and said angrily, "Why does Lu Ming even want to take this 'credit'? Did he tell you?! , I told him not to underestimate him!"
This really made Ji Yanchen pissed off. He didn't say this because he was afraid that Chi Qiu would feel guilty, but Lu Ming snatched all the benefits.
But he calmed down and thought about it carefully. Chi Qiu and Lu Ming are partners, so it's true that they have a better relationship.
Then, Ji Yanchen's light bulb went out automatically.
It was only then that Chi Qiu suddenly realized, he quickly apologized to Ji Yanchen, and then said foolishly, "Then he was angry because he was jealous?"
"yes!"
"... No wonder he doesn't feel happy no matter how much I apologize. It turns out that I misunderstood what he meant." Chi Qiu couldn't help stepping into another pit of misunderstanding.
Ji Yanchen waved his hand: "You have been pretending for so many years. To put it bluntly, the biggest reason is Chi Xia. If you really want to wait for Chi Xia to come back to inherit the family business before deciding to 'recover your eyesight', then before that, let's make the matter sincere." Tell Lu Ming calmly, after gaining his understanding..."
Chi Qiu followed suit and nodded: "... After understanding?"
"Then you don't need to pretend to be on Lu Ming's side anyway."
In this way, Chi Qiu can relax a bit.
After Chi Qiu listened carefully to what he said, he clenched his hands tightly, looking courageless. He thought about it, and still remembered what Lu Ming asked himself that night: "Is there anything you are hiding from me?"
Chi Qiu's answer at that time was decisive: "No."
Therefore, Chi Qiu didn't dare to make a rash decision, and asked in a whisper, "Will Lu Ming understand?"
"I don't know, but he feels that he loves you so much that he needs to be cured even if his face is paralyzed, his face is bad, and his temper is bad." There is also impotence that needs to be cured...
Ji Yanchen's explicit words made Chi Qiu blush.
Seeing that Chi Qiu was hesitant, he stopped urging him, and instead said, "Whether you want to tell him or not, you can figure it out for yourself. Anyway, I'm on your side."
Before leaving, Ji Yanchen saw that Chi Qiu was still frowning, and reached out to pat him on the shoulder: "Don't be stressed, just think I'm talking nonsense."
"No." Chi Qiu gradually figured it out, and said in a low voice, "Actually, I also think it's better not to keep lying to Lu Ming. If there are always lies between us, the distance will get farther and farther one day. .”
As he spoke, he laughed: "Yan Chen, thank you for reminding me of this."
The next priority should be to deliver food to Lu Ming first.
It was getting late, and Xiao Yan consistently parked the car in the front yard of the villa. As soon as he entered the room, he greeted them politely, and watched Aunt Su put the bone soup, braised pork, and vegetarian stir-fry in boxes one by one, and handed them to him safely.
Aunt Su supported Chi Qiu with one hand and an umbrella with the other, and walked to the front of the car: "Master, Chi will always be late today because of something, and the lunch box I gave you is for two people. If you are not in a hurry, It's okay to eat with Master Lu there and then go back."
Seeing the bad weather, Chi Qiu shook his head again and again for fear of delaying Xiao Yan's off-duty time.
In the end, Xiao Yan said sensiblely: "Sir, how long has it been since you and Mr. Lu have eaten together? You can eat there, and I will play games in the car and wait for you."
Hearing the clear sound of rain, Chi Qiu said, "I just called Lu Ming, but he didn't answer. Maybe he's still busy, let's go and see."
If Lu Ming is busy, Chi Qiu will definitely not disturb his work. But if Lu Ming wasn't busy and couldn't have dinner together these days, Chi Qiu would miss him a lot.
The road was slippery in rainy days, Xiao Yan slowed down the speed.
Chi Qiu sat quietly in the back seat, and heard Xiao Yan flatter and say: "It's raining harder and harder today. Even if you order a takeaway right now, it's too late to deliver. Sir, your order today The meal must be delivered to Mr. Lu's heart."
"The company has a staff canteen now, so there's no need to order takeaway." Chi Qiu said so, but slowly held the insulated box firmly in his hand, and smiled gently, "But the food at home is indeed more to his taste. "
After arriving at the downstairs of the company, Xiao Yan directly parked the car in the parking lot on the first floor.
Now the license plate of this car has been entered into the parking system of the office building, and it is free to enter and exit the parking lot on the first floor, and the fixed parking space has also been arranged by Xu Ling early.
Xiao Yan had sent Xu Ling a message before leaving, so when they drove into the parking lot, Xu Ling had been waiting there for a long time.
Xu Ling greeted him enthusiastically, opened the car door, and took the initiative to take the heat preservation box in Chi Qiu's hand: "Mr. Chi, President Lu has just finished a meeting, and now Mr. Lu Fengshen is in his office, and he seems to be here to deliver something to President Lu. So are you going up now?"
"Okay." When Chi Qiu heard that Lu Fengshen was there, he immediately unbuckled his seat belt.
Holding his guide stick, he tapped the ground lightly, and with the help of Xu Ling, he got on the elevator.
Lu Ming's office floor is on the 23rd floor, and the office floors of other employees are on the 19th-22nd floor. Xu Ling accompanied Chi Qiu to the 23rd floor, led him a few steps forward, and chatted along the way.
Seeing that Xu Ling had dark circles under his eyes, Chi Qiu knew that he hadn't had a good rest recently, so he reached out to him for an incubator: "Secretary Xu, go and do your own business. I know this place very well, can you?" Go by yourself."
Xu Ling was not at ease.
Chi Qiu cleverly took out his mobile phone: "I'll call Lu Ming now, go get busy."
As soon as these words came out, Xu Lingquan regarded himself as an unconscious light bulb, said "oh" twice, and returned to his office with a smile.
After Xu Ling left, Chi Qiu became much more free. In order not to show his feet, Chi Qiu still walked with his guide stick. His steps were easy, and he quickly approached Lu Ming's office.
Faintly, the door of the office was ajar.
In the silence, before Chi Qiu got close, he heard a "slap"—the sound of a slap was clear and crisp, accompanied by the man's loud reprimand, like thunder outside the window. Chi Qiu was so frightened that he stopped abruptly, not daring to move easily.
He stood blankly outside the door, looking inside in fear.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Fengshen's trembling voice came from inside the door: "Are you willing to keep his eyes blind for your own purpose?"
Chi Qiu's eyes widened suddenly, and his lips moved for some unknown reason, while the heat preservation box in his hand was inexplicably hot. He shrugged his shoulders, his head went blank, and for a moment he couldn't understand what Lu Fengshen said.
But these words, like a sudden knife, abruptly cut open the corner of the secret that Lu Ming was hiding.
clatter—
At the same time it was pouring down, Lu Ming answered a sentence, and just this one sentence immediately made Chi Qiu five thunderbolts.
Lu Ming said in a deep voice, "If he wasn't blind, I wouldn't marry him."
And this is not enough, because Lu Ming's voice is very calm, so calm that there is no trace of emotion, like a stranger, he said: "So now, there is no need for Chi Qiu to heal. Uncle, your behavior will only give me in vain. more trouble."
