Ji Guanxin took the initiative to greet Zhan Bai, and Zhan Bai cast his eyes on Ji Guanxin's face. He said lukewarmly: "I just saw Mr. Ji coming back downstairs. I thought he was going back to the company to work overtime, but I didn't expect he came down so soon."
Ji Guanxin's face didn't change, his heart didn't beat. He smiled lightly and said, "I'll come back to pick up Xiaolu and have dinner with him."
Zhan Bai looked at Lu Yao. She said calmly: "Go and eat quickly. I'll call you when I get back."
Zhan Bai said: "Call me after you finish eating and I will take you back."
Just from watching the conversation between the two, it was clear that they had a close personal relationship, and Ji Guanxin's eyes flashed with a certain narrowness. Then he said: "No need to go to such trouble. I will send her back."
Zhan Bai didn't look at Ji Guanxin and just said to Lu Yao, "Then I'll leave first."
Lu Yao nodded, and Zhan Bai turned around and left without saying a word. Looking at his back, Ji Guanxin smiled lightly and said, "Your little friend has quite a personality."
Lu Yao didn't want Ji Guanxin to notice Zhan Bai. So she changed the subject and said, "Where are we going?"
Ji Guanxin said: "I don't care. It's up to you."
Lu Yao said: "You are the boss, you make the decision."
The smile on Ji Guanxin's face widened, he looked at Lu Yao and said, "It's time to get off work now. You don't need to call me boss. Just call me by name."
Lu Yao sneered in her heart, clearly trying to suppress her, but she still had to pretend to be amiable. It was strange that he was not nominated for this Oscar.
Ji Guanxin also sneered in his heart. Seeing her shouting at Mr. Ji one after another, he was obviously unhappy, but he still pretended to be polite and treated each other.
Both of them despised each other, but they also had false smiles on their faces. In the end, they decided to eat Western food.
After getting into Ji Guanxin's car, Lu Yao sat quietly in the passenger seat without saying much.
Ji Guanxin took the initiative and said: "The internship is tomorrow. Are you ready for the preparations?"
Lu Yao said: "I have already met Chu Borui today."
Ji Guanxin said: "Chu Borui is known as a workaholic. You and him will suffer a lot in the future."
Lu Yao was not stupid. Judging from Chu Borui's reaction and Ding Siming's words, it was clear that it was Chu Borui who had given her to her from above. And besides Ji Guanxin, who else could be the master of this
Pretending to be confused while pretending to understand was enough for him.
Lu Yao's face was expressionless and she said calmly: "A famous teacher makes a great disciple, and I hope to learn more from him."
Ji Guanxin smiled lightly: "It's good that you have such a mentality and awareness."
Less than twenty minutes later, Ji Guanxin's car parked in front of a high-end French restaurant in the city. The two got out of the car one after another and walked in side by side.
As soon as the waiter saw Ji Guanxin, he immediately smiled and said, "Mr. Ji."
He stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation and led the two of them to a seat by the window on the first floor.
After sitting down, the two of them had an order book in their hands. Lu Yao didn't eat spicy food, fish or seafood, so she just ordered a steak. Ji Guanxin ordered chicken liver steak, Bali lobster and saffron chicken.
Seeing Lu Yao close the order book, he raised his head and asked, "Don't you need anything else?"
Lu Yao shook her head: "No need."
Ji Guanxin also closed the order book and said to the waiter: "latour1967."
After the waiter left, Lu Yao secretly felt sorry for her wallet. Ji Guanxin ordered a small 20,000 yuan for a bottle of wine and went out. He, an evil capitalist, either made her feel bad or physically hurt.
Across a square table covered with a delicate dark pattern tablecloth, Lu Yao and Ji Guanxin sat across from each other. If they were friends or lovers, this scene wouldn't be embarrassing, but their relationship... transformed from strangers to enemies. Just overnight.
Ji Guanxin looked at Lu Yao, who was wearing a simple white T-shirt in front of her. The slightly loose round neckline exposed the two delicate collarbones under her neck. Her collarbones are very beautiful, flat and straight. They spread out from the bottom of the throat to both sides, and when they extend to a certain place, they are blocked by clothes. People can't help but fantasize about the place blocked by clothes. What does it look like.
Lu Yao raised her eyes and saw Ji Guanxin staring at the area below her neck. With a flash of anger in her eyes, she took the initiative and said, "Don't Mr. Ji want to talk to me about Tiancheng?"
Ji Guanxin did not move, but raised his beautiful single eyelids slightly to meet Lu Yao's eyes.
He only said four words: "Call my name."
Lu Yao looked at him, trying to see something in his eyes, but he hid himself very well. She saw nothing except the faint smile that annoyed her.
After pausing for a few seconds, Lu Yao replied: "You are so much older than me, it's not good for me to call you by your name."
Ji Guanxin smiled lightly and said, "Am I much older than you?"
Lu Yao said: "Isn't eleven years old enough?"
Ji Guanxin snorted in her heart. She reminded him all the time that he was much older than her. To put it bluntly, she was just using moral aspects to restrain him.
However, he has no moral values by nature, and he likes to bully people who are not as capable as him.
Just as the waiter came over wearing white gloves and holding red wine, Ji Guanxin suddenly looked at him and asked aloud: "How old are we two?"
The waiter paused slightly, weighing the pros and cons in just a few seconds.
Everyone knew Ji Guanxin, but the girl sitting in front of him was a stranger. At least it was her first time following Ji Guanxin.
Who in Night City doesn't know that Ji Guanxin is a diamond-level bachelor who has been vacant for several years. This time, he suddenly brought a beautiful woman over and asked such a question...
If you don't return well, you may not even be able to keep your job.
After hesitating for three seconds, the waiter glanced at Lu Yao and then replied with a smile: "I think Mr. Ji and this lady are at most within five years of each other."
Lu Yao didn't look very young, and he knew that Ji Guanxin was already in his early thirties this year, but Ji Guanxin did not look old, so he was half-truth and half-false, so it was better to be younger and gamble on his luck.
As soon as these words came out, the curve of the corners of Ji Guanxin's lips widened, and he smiled and said: "Open a bar."
The waiter opened the wine, poured a glass for Ji Guanxin and Lu Yao each, and then walked away with suspicion in his heart.
Ji Guanxin looked at Lu Yao, smiling proudly: "It seems you are six years older than your actual age."
Lu Yao almost ran out of breath and vomited blood. He asked the waiter, how dare he say big
Lu Yao smiled softly, and replied: "As long as you are happy."
Ji Guanxin said: "Actually, the age difference is not a problem. The key is whether they are worthy of standing together."
I'm worthy of your size. Every time Ji Guanxin said something, Lu Yao always had a hard time in her heart. Wait a minute... Who wants to talk to him here about whether he is worthy or not
Lu Yao said: "Let's talk about Chengcheng."
Ji Guanxin said: "We haven't finished talking about the last topic yet. If you don't want to call me by my name, then just call me brother. I'm older than you anyway, so you won't suffer any loss if you call me brother."
Lu Yao immediately said: "Ji Guanxin, I hope you won't feel rude if I call you by your first name like this."
Ji Guanxin smiled and asked her to call him by his name. She really took great pains. But calling her by name is better than calling him Mr. Ji who is hypocritical, and it sounds pleasant to the ears.
"Xiaolu, don't you think so? In fact, I am much more approachable than you think. You don't need to be so restrained when you are with me."
Lu Yao listened and smiled, but didn't take it seriously at all.
When Ji Guanxin saw this, he suddenly said: "Does your brother know about your internship at Xinrui?"
When he mentioned Jian Chengli, the expression on Lu Yao's face became more lively. She raised her eyes slightly and replied aloud: "I am an adult and I can make my own decisions."
Ji Guanxin smiled: "I thought you two brothers and sisters have such a good relationship. He will tell you anything. If there is anything new on your end, you will definitely tell him in advance."
He meant something, but Lu Yao pretended not to understand, and just replied in a evasive manner: "I go to school and he works. We don't see each other every day, and we don't talk to each other about everything."
Ji Guanxin said: "In the journalism industry, first-hand information is naturally important, but confidentiality is equally important. Before you joined Xinrui, anything you said to your brother was normal and harmless. But starting from tomorrow, you will officially join Xinrui as an intern. , maybe you two won’t be so unscrupulous when talking about gossip again.”
Lu Yao said: "I understand, don't worry, we learned the professional ethics of journalists in the first class of our freshman year."
Ji Guanxin smiled: "It's not that I don't trust you, I'm just worried that girls like to gossip, so don't let anything slip by accident again."
Lu Yao showed a smile that was 90% similar to his and replied: "I have a very strict mouth."
Ji Guanxin nodded in agreement: "That's true."
Taking a closer look, the two of them were talking and laughing, and with the talent of the man and the beauty of the woman, ten out of ten people would have thought that they were a couple. But only Ji Guanxin and Lu Yao knew in their hearts that they were really angry with each other to the core.
The waiter pushed the dining cart over to bring the food. Lu Yao straightened her back and sat on a high-backed chair. When she was with Ji Guanxin, she always tensed up subconsciously, as if she was in a state of preparation for war at any time.
Suddenly, I heard a voice coming from behind: "Yao Yao?" It was full of surprise.
Lu Yao turned her head instinctively and met Jian Chengli's gaze.
Lu Yao's pupils were slightly dilated and she was wondering why Jian Chengli was here. When she took a closer look, she saw that Jian Chengli was not alone. The woman following him not far behind was Guan Wan.
Guan Wan naturally took Jian Chengli's arm and was talking to him. Seeing Jian Chengli looking away, she followed his gaze and looked towards Lu Yao.
Jian Chengli walked to the table where Lu Yao and Ji Guanxin were sitting. Before he could speak, Guan Yuan beside him nodded to Ji Guanxin and called with a smile: "Boss."
Ji Guanxin smiled, and then said to Jian Chengli: "Master Jian, what a coincidence? It seems that we are quite destined recently, and we can bump into each other wherever we go."
Jian Chengli smiled lightly, then looked at Lu Yao and said, "Why are you here?"
Lu Yao looked at Jian Chengli and Guan Wan beside him, and thought that he said he had something to do and couldn't pick her up. It turned out that what he called something was just to come and have dinner with Guan Wan.
