Zhou Ziyi actually accompanied him to work for a whole day.
Although he basically stayed in Yan Xiuji's lounge, except for lunch, dinner and afternoon tea, when he strolled into the CEO's office, he basically didn't come out. But the few minutes he was in and out, as well as the messages from Li Fei such as "What did you eat for lunch?", "I ordered milk! What do you want to drink?", "What do you want to eat tonight", etc., were enough to make Zhou Ziyi feel embarrassed.
So the next morning, when Yan Xiuzhi asked him again "Do you want to go and check on them?", Zhou Ziyi firmly said no.
"Okay." Yan Xiuji had already guessed that he would not go, and asked just to tease him, "Then I'll tell you in advance, I'll get off work early tomorrow night, and we'll go out for dinner, so you get ready."
Zhou Ziyi thought it was another "CEO's dinner party" and accepted it without thinking for a second.
He also added the question: "What are you wearing?"
Yan Xiuji stood up from the dining table and picked up the tie on the chair next to him: "You decide."
Zhou Ziyi was stunned: "...Huh?"
"Aren't you going to move your clothes to my bedroom today? Check my closet while you're at it." Yan Xiuji said, "Pick out something to wear tonight and I'll come back to change. Also, I haven't had time to buy clothes in the past two years, so can you help me get a few more sets?"
Zhou Ziyi was stunned when he heard this: "Replenish, replenish what...?"
"Clothes."
"I mean, what kind of clothes do you want to mend?"
"It's up to you." Yan Xiuji said as he buttoned the top button of his shirt. "My membership cards are all on the second shelf of the bedside table. Take them if you need them. If you go to the mall, I've opened a mobile payment app for you. Just select my account when you pay. You can pay for anything you want to buy. I remember you said before that you got rid of a lot of clothes. Let's buy them back."
Zhou Ziyi felt mixed emotions as he listened to his every word which conveyed a lot of information.
It’s hard to say whether it’s because they are touched or because the intimacy comes too quickly, which always makes young people feel “unreal”.
He sighed in his heart and felt that he had to adapt faster, otherwise it would seem that he was not serious about this relationship.
"You really want me to buy it?" The young man suppressed his inner feelings and pretended to be relaxed, "Do you trust my taste so much? If you buy clothes that don't look good on you, don't blame me."
Yan Xiuji said while wearing a tie: "I believe in your vision."
Zhou Ziyi asked again: "What about the budget?"
Yan Xiuji glanced at him and said, "You're asking me about the budget?"
"..." Zhou Ziyi clasped his fists, "I understand, rich man."
"You don't need rare items or auction items. You can choose the rest." Yan Xiuji finished speaking and tied his tie. "I can buy the same one as yours if you think it matches well. It will be more convenient when you go out in the future. You don't have to think about how to match your clothes every time."
Zhou Ziyi said happily: "What if I dress you up with a big gold chain and a small watch, and eat barbecue three times a day?"
Yan Xiu Ji didn't know what was going on and just looked at him with a raised eyebrow.
Zhou Ziyi laughed to himself for a long time, then waved his hand and said, "Forget it, forget it. Go to work and don't delay me."
——You can’t say that you are wearing the clothes of “Garlic Peeling Girl”, right? A joke that no one responds to is really lonely like snow.
Yan Xiuji didn't think too much about his joke. He took his coat and prepared to go out. As he walked out, he said, "By the way, there's no rush to buy clothes. Just take your time."
Zhou Ziyi stood up and prepared to clear the table: "I know. If I'm not sure then, I'll send you a photo."
"Okay." Yan Xiuji was not at all impatient with these daily conversations. Instead, he replied seriously, "You can also send me the photos of yourself trying on clothes."
Zhou Ziyi looked at his back and said happily, "Are you sure? After a while, those stores will start to spread rumors that Huahao's CEO's wife always tries on clothes and takes pictures, but never buys anything. Don't blame me if the reputation is damaged."
Yan Xiuji stood at the entrance, turned his head to look at him, raised his eyebrows and said, "Come here."
"Why, are you going to retaliate against me?" Zhou Ziyi challenged him, but he walked over honestly. "But you asked me to buy it and take pictures. Then... well."
Yan Xiuji grabbed his waist and kissed him.
It was only about ten seconds, but all the necessary procedures were followed, and Zhou Ziyi was stunned by the kiss.
Yan Xiuji stepped away, touched his lips with his thumb, and chuckled, "Goodbye kiss in the morning, see you in the evening."
Zhou Ziyi was still a little dazed, as if he hadn't come back to his senses. Mr. Yan seemed to be the owner of a Persian cat who had just been pampered before leaving the house. With a mixture of satisfaction and reluctance, he finally turned around and left.
Two steps, just as he put his hand on the door handle, he suddenly heard someone behind him say, "Yan Xiuji!"
Yan Xiuji turned around, and before he could even focus his eyes, Zhou Ziyi grabbed his tie and pulled him, biting his lower lip.
The young man stared at him, with a little light in his pupils, and smiled happily, making people unable to look away: "I'll wait for you to come back in the evening, brother."
Yan Xiuji: “…”
——I suddenly understood the idea of putting the cat in the bag to go to work!
***
The next afternoon, Yan Xiuzhi returned early as expected, entering the house before 5:15 in the afternoon.
Seeing how much he valued it, Zhou Ziyi felt that this banquet was very important, so he dressed both of them in formal attire. Yan Xiuji wore a standard black three-piece suit, with a tie, cuffs, collar pins, and other accessories. Zhou Ziyi chose a navy blue suit, which was basically the same as Yan Xiuji's, but it didn't steal the show.
When Yan Xiuji came back, Zhou Ziyi was almost dressed, so he gave up his bedroom and waited for someone in the living room. However, within a few minutes, he received a message from Yan Xiuji: [The collar pin is not fastened properly, come up and help. ]
Zhou Ziyi went up without thinking much.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw Yan Xiuji buttoning the cuffs of his shirt. The man's collar buttons were not yet buttoned, revealing his slender neck and collarbone. Zhou Ziyi couldn't help but whistle.
Yan Xiuji raised his eyebrows and looked at him: "Are you naughty again?"
"I've been thinking that one day I'll see you taking off your clothes. I'm willing to pay for the ticket to watch you twist your tie, okay?" Zhou Ziyi sighed as he approached him and stretched out his hand to button his tie. "You don't know how beautiful your hands look when you're taking off your tie... Have you practiced? I really want to take a picture and use it as a model for my painting."
"No need to take pictures." Yan Xiuji finished buttoning his sleeves, looked at the young man and said, "If you want to see, I'll show you everything in the future. Just take pictures with your eyes."
Zhou Ziyi: “…”
It was obviously him who started the flirting, but he still blushed because of the other party's sweet words. It was really enough.
After finally buttoning the buttons, Zhou Ziyi picked up the collar pin and began to put it on the person. This little thing is delicate, and it does require some careful adjustment when buttoning it. Zhou Ziyi unconsciously moved closer and closer, half-squinting his eyes and operating carefully, and explaining while doing it: "This probably needs to be done in front of the mirror, get closer, and carefully adjust it..."
The breath of his voice brushed against Yan Xiu Ji's neck. Yan Xiu Ji lowered his eyes to look at him, then raised his hand to silently hold his waist.
Zhou Ziyi felt his hand, looked up at him, and then the two of them exchanged a gentle kiss tacitly and continued doing their own things.
"Oh, I forgot, I should tie my tie first." Zhou Ziyi muttered to himself after fastening his collar pin, and then took the tie and naturally tied it for Yan Xiuji. Yan Xiuji stood there and let him fiddle with it, watching Zhou Ziyi's deft fingers moving between the ties, and suddenly realized that he quite enjoyed this kind of daily intimacy.
The man whispered, "You're going to watch me take off my tie from now on, so do you want to help me tie it?"
Zhou Ziyi raised his eyebrows: "Why do I feel like I have more and more work to do in the morning?"
Yan Xiuji had figured out his tricks now, and asked, "So you're not going to do it?"
"...Do it." Zhou Ziyi snorted, "Then no matter how I beat you, you have to go out like this. At least you can't tear it apart in front of me like you did the morning before yesterday! Do I have no face?"
Yan Xiuji laughed softly: "I understand."
"I can buy clothes for you and wear them for you. How about I be your stylist?" Zhou Ziyi said, "I can also read magazines and order new clothes for you every season. Then, our dignified CEO of Huahao can appear in fashion magazines in addition to his regular financial reports."
Yan Xiuji was fine with it: "Okay. Do you want me to pay you a stylist's salary?"
Zhou Ziyi suddenly became dramatic: "Why, do you think I'm after your filthy money?"
Yan Xiuji: "No plan?"
Zhou Ziyi: "Picture."
After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but burst out laughing. Yan Xiuzhi pinched his chin, and he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
In the end, Zhou Ziyi even helped Yan Xiuzhi put on his coat.
"Okay, let's go?" Zhou Ziyi looked at the time. "It seems a little later than scheduled. Are we late?"
Yan Xiuji held his hand and said, "It's okay, let's go."
***
This time, the restaurant is a fashionable Western restaurant located on the upper floors of a skyscraper.
The night view from the floor-to-ceiling windows is dazzling, and a transparent musical instrument platform is luxuriously set up in the middle of the restaurant, with a white grand piano on the platform. The background sound in the store is not music, but the sound of gurgling water, which can simply and effectively isolate the conversations of customers.
But even in such a high-end restaurant, Zhou Ziyi realized a problem as soon as he entered the door: This place... doesn't seem to be a place to hold large banquets?
The waiter took them to a seat by the window and kindly reminded them: "If you two feel uncomfortable, we can move to a seat a little further inside..."
Yan Xiuji looked at Zhou Ziyi and said, "I forgot to ask you, are you afraid of heights?"
"No." Zhou Ziyi replied, but he was still full of questions.
After he and Yan Xiuzhi sat down face to face, Zhou Ziyi fully realized that there would be no chairs for other people next to their table.
Zhou Ziyi asked blankly: "Brother, what is today...?"
Yan Xiuji looked at him, and in order to conceal the truth of something, he pretended to be calm and replied: "Dating."
Zhou Ziyi: “…Ah?!”
