Chapter 37

Luo Qingli stopped teasing Xiaoli and looked at Ji Jinsi in confusion.

"Why do you want me to accompany you?"

Luo Qingli didn't like that kind of dinner party, and she never did. She hated that kind of occasion where everyone was hypocritical.

"The largest domestic daily chemical product manufacturer will be at the dinner, and collaborating with him to produce co-branded products will play a significant role in increasing Mozhu's popularity."

Luo Qingli knew that Ji Jinsi was thinking about her, so she nodded: "Okay, I'll go with you."

"I'll prepare the dress for you."

"No, didn't I buy a set last time? It's just right for me to use."

Ji Jinsi seemed to be thinking about the dress, and then he said, "That one won't work. The skirt is too short. I'll prepare one for you."

Since Ji Jinsi insisted, Luo Qingli had nothing to say and could only nod and agree. After all, it was not the first time that he helped her prepare a dress.

After a while, Ji Jinsi checked the time, put away his phone, took off his glasses, and said to Luo Qingli, "Let's go. Uncle Liu is waiting for us downstairs."

Luo Qingli was a little surprised. Ji Jinsi actually agreed to let her go back?

"We? Mr. Ji, you don't have to send me off. I can go back by myself." Luo Qingli smiled.

Ji Jinsi looked at Luo Qingli, as if asking, what nonsense are you talking about.

"Didn't you say you've never been to North City? I happen to have some time today, so I'll take you there."

"ah?"

Ji Jinsi seemed very satisfied with the expression on Luo Qingli's face. He raised the corners of his lips and said, "Boss Luo, let's go."

When they arrived at the place, Luo Qingli found out that Ji Jinsi took her to the National Museum.

"Why did you think of bringing me here?" Luo Qingli asked curiously.

"It's hot now, and outdoor attractions are not suitable. I thought you would like this kind of place." Ji Jinsi was not as confident as before when he spoke. He actually didn't understand Luo Qingli's hobbies.

Luo Qingli smiled and said, "You guessed right. I've always liked places with rich history and culture. When I was applying for university, I even considered majoring in archaeology, but my family wouldn't allow it."

At that time, Luo Qingli had no choice. Everything she had depended on the Ye family. She had no choice in what the Ye family asked her to do.

Finally, under Ye Zuxing's arrangement, she studied finance.

It's Saturday and there are a lot of people visiting the museum.

In fact, you can choose to hire a tour guide to explain, but Ji Jinsi has unexpectedly rich relevant knowledge, he can be half a tour guide.

After listening to Ji Jinsi's explanation of the knowledge related to cultural relics, Luo Qingli couldn't help but ask curiously: "How do you remember these things?"

Ji Jinsi said calmly: “I’ll remember it after reading it once.”

Well, comparison is the thief of joy. She doesn’t have Ji Jinsi’s ability to remember everything he sees.

"Mr. Ji? It's really you. What a coincidence." A middle-aged man standing next to him greeted Ji Jinsi.

Ji Jinsi responded politely: "Mr. Yang, long time no see."

In front of everyone, Ji Jinsi is always so dignified and elegant. His long life in power has given him an indescribable majesty. Even those bosses who are several times older than Ji Jinsi do not dare to act arrogantly because of their age.

Mr. Yang was accompanied by a young and beautiful woman. The woman was originally holding Mr. Yang's hand, but when Mr. Yang was talking to Ji Jinsi, she took the initiative to let go of Mr. Yang's hand and took two steps back.

Luo Qingli saw her actions and made a judgment about her identity in his mind.

"I heard that President Ji will be attending the dinner tomorrow? Then Yang will have to have a good chat with President Ji."

"Well, see you tomorrow night."

Ji Jinsi continued to walk forward with Luo Qingli. Luo Qingli turned around and found that the woman had put her arm around Mr. Yang again.

"What are you looking at?" Ji Jinsi asked when he saw Luo Qingli stop.

"Nothing." Luo Qingli retracted her gaze, "It's just that seeing the woman next to Mr. Yang is like seeing my past self."

Luo Qingli just sighed a few words, but Ji Jinsi stopped and looked into Luo Qingli's eyes seriously.

"You are different from her," he said solemnly.

Luo Qingli just wanted to make a self-deprecating remark, but she didn't expect Ji Jinsi to be so serious.

Looking into Ji Jinsi's eyes, Luo Qingli didn't care whether what Ji Jinsi said was true or false, but at this moment, she chose to believe him.

She nodded, "Yeah, I get it now."

This was just a small episode, and Luo Qingli quickly put it behind her. She followed Ji Jinsi for almost an hour, and Ji Jinsi stopped and asked, "Are you tired?"

Although Luo Qingli was wearing flat shoes, she was still a little tired after walking for such a long time, so she nodded honestly: "A little."

Ji Jinsi asked her to sit on a chair beside him.

Luo Qingli looked at Ji Jinsi and said, "I just saw a place selling souvenirs nearby. Can you buy me a souvenir? I want to take it back to Xiaobao."

Hearing the word "Xiaobao", Ji Jinsi's pupils shrank, and soon he nodded and said, "Well, you wait here for a while, I'll be back soon."

After Ji Jinsi left, Luo Qingli lowered his head and rubbed his sore ankle.

"Can you teach me how you hooked up with Ji Jinsi?" Suddenly someone spoke beside her.

Luo Qingli raised his head and found that it was the woman who followed Mr. Yang.

Luo Qingli looked around but did not see Mr. Yang.

The woman sat on the stool next to Luo Qingli and said, "Don't look anymore, he went to the bathroom."

The woman came over and took a closer look at Luo Qingli's face. Then, she looked him up and down for a while and said, "You are indeed good-looking and have a good figure. Is it because you are good in bed that you can become Ji Jinsi's lover?"

"Ji Jinsi and I don't have that kind of relationship."

"Don't lie to me. I'm just curious. I'm not trying to steal your business." The woman brushed her long, dark brown curly hair across her chest and said, "Everyone knows that the hardest thing is to win over Ji Jinsi. I heard he's so stubborn that no woman has ever succeeded. We all thought he might be attracted to men."

"Hey, can you teach us? How did you win over Ji Jinsi? You know, I also want to be adopted by a young and handsome boss, not a pig-head like Mr. Yang."

It seems that this woman misunderstood that she was Ji Jinsi's lover.

"I told you, Ji Jinsi and I are just friends."

"Oh, a friend?" The woman's eyes were full of disbelief. "If you don't want to tell me, forget it."

"Qingli, let's go." Ji Jinsi suddenly appeared with a bag in his hand.

Luo Qingli stood up and walked to Ji Jinsi.

"Hey, Mr. Ji, wait a minute." The woman actually caught up with him. "I want to ask, Mr. Ji, is this your girlfriend?"

The woman's eyes were full of interest, and she seemed to want to humiliate Luo Qingli.

Ji Jinsi shook his head.

The woman grinned, but the smile was interrupted before it lasted long.

"She is my fiancée." After saying this, Ji Jinsi took Luo Qingli's hand and left.

The woman stood there in a daze.

Luo Qingli was no longer in the mood to care about the woman's reaction. She looked at the hand held by Ji Jinsi, swallowed her saliva and said, "What did you mean by that just now? I don't remember when I became your fiancée?"

Ji Jinsi didn't pause, he said calmly: "I proposed to you before, didn't I?"

"But I didn't agree, did I?"

"But after thinking about it, all the men around you are not as good as me. I am confident that I am your best choice." Ji Jinsi said and suddenly stopped.

He turned his head and moved closer to Luo Qingli. He looked into the girl's beautiful, kitten-like eyes and whispered, "I believe you will choose me."

Luo Qingli was stunned. It was the first time she heard such confident words from Ji Jinsi.

"Then Ji Jinsi, do you love me?"

Ji Jinsi smiled slightly, reached out and rubbed her hair, then took her hand again, "I prefer to do it. Let's go, I'll take you home."

Luo Qingli was led forward by Ji Jinsi. Her heart was in a mess. What exactly did he mean by that sentence?

Luo Qingli suddenly felt that he had become the same person who was always worried about gains and losses.

This is not good, she doesn't want to be distracted by Ji Jinsi again.

Luo Qingli calmed herself down and stopped thinking about what Ji Jinsi had said to her. She decided to focus on her career.

Ji Jinsi seemed to be very busy. As soon as he got in the car, he kept answering the phone. He spoke in English and used a lot of professional terms. Luo Qingli didn't understand much, but he knew that there was a problem with the foreign company.

While Ji Jinsi was talking on the phone, he grabbed Luo Qingli's hand with his free hand and rubbed it slowly. This was his habit.

Arriving at the destination, Ji Jinsi let go of Luo Qingli's hand and said, "I'll pick you up tomorrow."

Luo Qingli nodded and got out of the car.

After returning home, Luo Qingli collapsed on the sofa and closed her eyes.

So many things happened in the past two days that she felt at a loss, especially her relationship with Ji Jinsi.

She felt that she and Ji Jinsi seemed to have returned to their previous state.

But this is dangerous.

Although Ji Jinsi is now acting like a gentleman and harmless, he is very likely to drag himself into the abyss.

Like a siren on the boundless ocean, he lured her with his singing and made her sink into the endless deep sea.

Love always makes people blind and lose themselves. She thought that she didn't need love.

In the evening, Jiang Ran, who had not been seen for a few days, finally came back.

Luo Qingli was in the living room looking at the perfume bottle sketch sent by the designer. When he heard the door open, he saw Jiang Ran opening the door and coming in.

She seemed darker and thinner than before she left.

Jiang Ran put the suitcase aside and walked forward to hug Luo Qingli.

"Qingli, I missed you so much. You have no idea how hard this business trip was for me!"

Luo Qingli asked her to sit down and talk in detail.

As Jiang Ran ordered takeout on her phone, she said, "These people are really troublemakers. They're so scheming and scheming. I was so far away, but they were also affected. It made it difficult for me to eat or sleep well!"

Luo Qingli heard Feng Fang talk about Jiang Ran and the others' variety show. Because it was live broadcast, it was particularly exciting and melodramatic, and it caused a lot of discussion online.
