That night, on the way back after having dinner with the factory executives, Xu Sheng suddenly asked Tang Zhi: "Saturday and Sunday haven't been arranged yet, right?"
Tang Zhi was a little confused, because they only confirmed the itinerary last night, Xu Sheng's memory should not be so bad.
However, Xu Sheng is a person who easily gets upset when others ask too many questions, so Tang Zhi replied: "Yes, no."
"Oh," Xu Sheng said to Tang Zhi in a very ordinary tone, "then go and talk to Chairman Xu's secretary and ask him to send the things to you."
Tang Zhi was stunned for a moment: "Huh?"
"Ask him to send things to you." Xu Sheng repeated again.
Xu Sheng's tone was as if he had just assigned Tang Zhi an ordinary task. However, Tang Zhi had no idea what he was talking about.
Tang Zhi was quiet for a few seconds, and Xu Sheng seemed like he couldn't wait any longer, and then asked, "Do you understand?"
Tang Zhi had no choice but to say "I understand" and secretly thought in his heart: This person suddenly spoke incomprehensively, and must be hiding some unspeakable secret.
After returning to the room. Tang Zhi called Director Xu's secretary with whom he had contacted and told him: "Mr. Xu asked you to send me the things."
Strangely enough, the secretary seemed to assume that Tang Zhi knew the whole story, and said nothing more. He only told Tang Zhi, "I understand," and then sent him the flight number, hotel address, and driver's number for Friday night.
Tang Zhi looked at the short few lines of information and was filled with doubts. He couldn't help but put down his phone and looked at Xu Sheng who was sitting on the side of the couch, immersed in reading a financial newspaper, and asked him: "Mr. Xu, are we going to work in Dun City?" ?”
When Xu Sheng heard this, he stopped turning the paper, raised his head, looked at Tang Zhi, said "hmm", and turned his attention back to the newspaper.
Tang Zhi became even more curious and asked again: "Are we just the two of us?"
Xu Sheng replied without raising his head: "Yes."
"What to do?"
"Didn't I say that?" Xu Sheng raised his eyes and looked directly at Tang Zhi, and said expressionlessly, "Work."
Tang Zhi felt that Xu Sheng would be kicked out of the room if he continued to ask, so he could only think about it in confusion. After a while, he suddenly received a second email from Secretary Fei.
The email contained the name of a restaurant, the name of the person who made the reservation "Xu Sheng", and an exact time: 12:30 noon on Saturday.
As well as a few photos of a beautiful girl’s life, and a resume and hobbies of the girl.
Tang Zhi swiped the screen a few times and finally realized what was going on. He said to Xu Sheng, "Mr. Xu, it turns out you are going to meet a girl."
"No," Xu Sheng closed the newspaper with a snap and denied with a straight face, "I'm going to work."
"But write it here," Tang Zhi stood up and handed the phone to Xu Sheng, "a suitable topic for chatting with Miss Zhao."
Xu Sheng snatched his phone away, frowning obviously, but pretending to be nonchalant and saying "hmm", he lowered his head and scratched Tang Zhi's screen, and said disgustingly: "Your screen is broken. "
The screen of Tang Zhi has been broken for more than half a month, but it is just a few small cracks on the corners, which does not affect the use, so I have been too lazy to replace it.
"I want to change," Tang Zhi said, "but I'm too busy at work, and sometimes I have to help the boss with his blind date—"
"—Tang Zhi," Xu Sheng interrupted him fiercely, "Shut up."
Tang Zhi wanted to laugh so hard that he finally got revenge for being accused of watching movies all night long. He happily commented: "Miss Zhao is very beautiful."
Xu Sheng glanced at him without saying a word, and found that Tang Zhi was still leaning forward, leaning his elbows on the armrests, and moving closer to him, trying to read the email together.
"It's a good match with Mr. Xu." Tang Zhi continued to comment.
Xu Sheng didn't bother to pay attention to him at all. After forwarding the email to himself, he checked the box to delete it.
If he had known that his grandfather's secretary would directly send the other party's information to Tang Zhi, he would never have let Tang Zhi communicate with the secretary.
Tang Zhi seemed to have seen Xu Sheng's action of deleting the email, and suddenly reached out to reach for the phone: "Don't delete the flight number—"
As soon as Xu Sheng dodged his hand, Tang Zhi didn't grab the phone, but only grabbed the back of Xu Sheng's hand.
For some reason, Tang Zhi seemed to be taken aback when he touched Xu Sheng, and immediately let go of his hand. As a result, his center of gravity became unstable, and he fell forward and rushed towards Xu Sheng. Finally, he pressed his hand on Xu Sheng's leg and knocked his chin. On Xu Sheng's shoulder.
Xu Sheng was not hurt by the knock, but was hugged by Tang Zhi.
Tang Zhi's entire face was buried in Xu Sheng's shoulder and neck, and his cheek rubbed against the skin of Xu Sheng's neck, which was warm and soft.
There was a very sweet but subtle fragrance on his body. In order to gain strength, he raised his hands and put them around Xu Sheng's shoulders, as if he was clumsily throwing himself into Xu Sheng's arms.
Xu Sheng felt that Tang Zhi was stupid many times. He grabbed Tang Zhi's arm, helped Tang Zhi regain his center of gravity, and asked, "Tang Zhi, would you like to take the time to check the cerebellum."
"...I'm sorry." Tang Zhi finally stood up straight and admitted his mistake honestly.
Tang Zhi looked very well-behaved when he admitted his mistake, and seemed to sincerely acknowledge his mistake. Although Xu Sheng didn't know what he was apologizing for, he reluctantly accepted it.
After they arrived in Donton at six o'clock on Friday evening, the driver first drove to an old department store in the city center.
Secretary Fei has contacted Ms. Zhao's favorite jewelry brand and temporarily transferred the products of the brand's stores near Dun City for Xu Sheng to choose from.
The brand was on the first floor of the department store. The store manager picked them up and walked around the circular glass cabinet at the door to the VIP room.
Tang Zhi followed behind, looking around.
After passing a classic series of glass cabinets, Tang Zhi walked a little slower and stopped to look at them for a few seconds. He felt that his mother would definitely like them and planned to buy one himself after Xu Sheng finished choosing.
The store manager prepared many styles for Xu Sheng, and Xu Sheng selected one with such lightning speed that Tang Zhi felt that he might not have looked carefully at all.
It took a long time to wait for packaging. Tang Zhi sat for a while and said to Xu Sheng, "Mr. Xu, I want to go and show my mother the necklace."
Xu Sheng looked at him for a few seconds, said yes, and Tang Zhi walked out.
The person who received Tang Zhi was a very tall saleswoman.
She took out three necklaces of the same color with different colors, and Tang Zhi was a little hard to choose.
The salesperson tried them on for Tang Zhi, but when she took them off, she somehow got caught on the clothes. Tang Zhi raised his hand to smooth it for her, and happened to see Xu Sheng walking out of the VIP room.
Xu Sheng's hands were empty, and the store manager carried the bag for him.
Seeing Tang Zhi's movements, Xu Sheng paused. Tang Zhi felt that he seemed to frown, but he might have seen it wrong.
Xu Sheng walked up to Tang Zhi and asked him, "Why is it so slow?"
"Sorry." Tang Zhi said.
Tang Zhi's expression was slightly troubled, and he told Xu Sheng in a low voice: "I'm choosing a color."
Xu Sheng followed his gaze and glanced at the necklace placed on the dark velvet cushion. The pendants had the same shape and were inlaid with diamonds. They looked exactly the same, but the colors were different.
Tang Zhi frowned slightly, looking like he couldn't make a decision. He fiddled with the platinum strip with his fingers and then touched the platinum strip.
Xu Sheng looked at Tang Zhi for a long time, wanting Tang Zhi to stop wasting his time, but he didn't know why, and seemed to have been unable to say this.
Maybe it was because Tang Zhi looked too serious in his selection, making it difficult for people to be harsh on him.
"Tang Zhi." Xu Sheng called him.
So in the evening of that day, Tang Zhi’s focused eyes moved from the clouds outside the plane to his mobile phone, from the mobile phone to the meal, from the meal to the driver waiting outside the departure gate, to the store manager, to the shiny The jewelry counter at the store finally moved to Xu Sheng from three identical necklaces at a quarter past seven.
"It'll be ready soon," he said to Xu Sheng in a pleading voice, and then turned around and told the salesperson with determination, "Let's make it white."
Therefore, Xu Sheng's next sentence, "Wrap up everything you like, don't waste time" could not be said.
"Just this white one." Tang Zhi said happily to the salesperson. His eyes were bright. Xu Sheng stared at him and felt a slight sudden spasm in his stomach and throat.
He saw Tang Zhi take out an old bank card and stopped it with his hand. Perhaps the movement was a bit too big and he grabbed Tang Zhi's hand.
Tang Zhi seemed to be frightened by him and almost dropped the card on the ground.
"What's wrong?" Tang Zhi asked him.
Tang Zhi's hand was narrower than Xu Sheng's, and also colder than Xu Sheng's.
Xu Sheng looked at him, let go, took out his card, and put it on the leather plate on the counter.
Tang Zhi reacted and immediately refused: "No need."
He pushed the plate away and handed his card to the salesperson again.
But the salesperson didn't take it. She looked at Xu Sheng and then the store manager, as if she didn't know which one to accept.
Tang Zhi picked up Xu Sheng's card from the plate and gave it back to Xu Sheng. He smiled at Xu Sheng as if he was surprised: "Why are you so polite to me all of a sudden?"
"Scared me." He said as if Xu Sheng was stingy to him.
"No need." Tang Zhi said again.
Xu Sheng looked at him when he was young and took the card back.
The salesperson breathed a sigh of relief and helped Tang Zhi settle the order.
