Yan Xiuzhi's original plan for a "full confession" was actually scheduled for today.
However, the situation changed midway, and Yan had to rush the matter a few days in advance, so he had to do the "business" first. If he had known this would happen, Yan Xiuji would have thought it would be better to move it to an earlier time to avoid the mess later. Fortunately, the result of the impromptu confession was not bad, otherwise he would have been really angry.
"So, today is the day you've already decided, why not come?"
Zhou Ziyi shook the cup: "You should have told me earlier, I thought it was some important banquet, I almost went out to get a hairstyle."
Yan Xiuji raised his eyes to look at him: "Dating is not important?"
This one sentence choked Zhou Ziyi.
He really couldn't understand how Yan Xiuji could speak in a calm tone, but the content was so exciting. After thinking about it, it can only be that this guy is too good-looking. In addition, he was wearing the eye-catching configuration that Zhou Ziyi personally picked out today, and when he sat by the brightly lit window, his beauty was doubled. Who could resist it!
What's more, Zhou Ziyi himself has a tenfold filter for Yan Xiuzhi.
He calmed himself down, suggesting that he could handle it and not get knocked out on a first date: "...That's different!"
"Why is it different?"
"How can showing it to everyone be the same as showing it to one person?" Zhou Ziyi said, "How can a date and attending a banquet be the same thing, President Yan!"
Yan Xiuji summed up the key point: "To show to one person? You mean, you have clothes that you want to wear specifically for me to see?"
Zhou Ziyi: "Uh..."
Yan Xiuji: "You can wear it again when you get home and show it to me."
Zhou Ziyi: ???
——No, it was just a serious conversation, why did it suddenly feel like it contained a hint?
——Is it my fault or is he really hinting at that? ! ? ! ? !
Yan Xiuji added: "I've learned my lesson. I'll correct it next time."
"..." Zhou Ziyi felt that this was not a good topic to answer, so he silently changed the subject, "By the way, you were planning to confess here? But what if someone took a photo of you in public and asked you why you were having a confession ceremony when you were already married? What would you do?"
Yan Xiuji calmly replied, "Anniversary surprise."
Zhou Ziyi gave him a thumbs up: "Brother, awesome."
Yan Xiuji didn't respond, but just looked at him holding the glass of wine: "This wine has been served for half an hour, why are you still hesitating for so long?"
Zhou Ziyi was just doing it casually, not considering anything else, and replied: "What do you care about me? I'm going to shake the 1982 Coke, so I'm going to shake it."
Yan Xiuji saw it and asked, "Don't you want to drink?"
"...Ahem, I think the taste is a bit, uh, a bit astringent." Zhou Ziyi said, "Don't worry about me, just finish it later."
"If you don't like it, don't drink it." Yan Xiuji thought to himself that he still didn't know Zhou Ziyi's taste well enough, and maybe he should pay more attention to it in the future. "What do you want to drink? Coke?"
"That's too inappropriate..." Zhou Ziyi said, "The waiter might scold me behind my back for being a country bumpkin with no sense."
"You are a consumer, just make your choice." Yan Xiuji said, "Do you want it or not?"
"Let's not have Coke...or try another drink."
"What do you want?"
"You decide. Anyway, you decide on this table. I'll just open my mouth and eat."
Yan Xiuji thought about it and pressed the call bell. A waiter came over quickly: "Mr. Yan, is there anything I can help you with?"
Yan Xiuji asked: "Is there any table wine with a lower alcohol content and a more refreshing taste?"
The waiter smiled and said, "What a coincidence. We just started to release a seasonal mojito these two days. It has white peach and is refreshing and sweet. What do you think?"
Yan Xiuji raised his eyebrows: "Mojito?"
The waiter nodded: "Yes, this is a new recipe created by our restaurant."
Yan Xiuji looked at Zhou Ziyi. Zhou Ziyi had sensed the main point when he heard the word. Now that Yan Xiuji looked at him, he silently turned his head to look out the window, staring at the glittering arched suspension bridge in the distance.
Yan Xiuji smiled lightly and said to the waiter, "Give him a mojito."
***
After dinner, Yan Xiuzhi took Zhou Ziyi for a walk on the bridge.
This part was not originally planned, but Zhou Ziyi seemed to like this bridge with rainbow-colored lights while eating. Yan Xiuji saw that it was still early after dinner, so he brought people over.
Zhou Ziyi didn't mind going out for a walk, but it was a bit crazy for two people in suits to walk on the bridge. He thought about it, went back to the car, took off the unnecessary accessories such as tie pins and ties, took off the three-piece vest, unbuttoned the shirt with two buttons, and opened the suit jacket, which was somewhat more casual.
Yan Xiuji sat beside him and watched him finish his work. He pointed at his collar and called out, "Zhou Ziyi."
Zhou Ziyi glanced at him, muttered "so stupid", then moved closer and slowly untied his collar pin.
Yan Xiuzhi naturally let him do what he wanted.
I called him on purpose.
As Zhou Ziyi was dismantling the car, Yan Xiuji was watching him with a focused gaze. The light in the back seat was bright enough, but not too bright. The orange hue was just right for "wait to see the beauty".
They were so close that they could hear each other's breathing. How could Zhou Ziyi not feel it? As he was dismantling the car, Zhou Ziyi felt the temperature inside the car rising. The dismantling movements that were originally very smooth almost became a little unfamiliar. He couldn't help but speed up his movements, and then pushed Yan Xiuji after he finished dismantling: "Take off your tie and vest yourself!"
Yan Xiu Ji raised his hand, pressed the back of his neck, and leaned in to kiss him.
Zhou Ziyi was terrified: "You are crazy, this is in the car!"
"Xiao Li is not here, what are you afraid of?" Yan Xiuji said, "Besides, I didn't do anything. Why are you so nervous? What are you thinking about?"
Zhou Ziyi: “…” Let me tell you, I am just crazy!
Yan Xiuji saw him turning his head to look out the window, his ears were a little red, and he said, "Didn't you say you wanted to see me untie my tie?"
"Take yours off!"
Zhou Ziyi simply opened the door and slipped out. If he stayed in this space any longer, he would suffocate.
Yan Xiuzhi teased him like a large wild animal teasing its prey. Zhou Ziyi's heartbeat quickened and he became absent-minded. He couldn't use his eloquence at all. It was really painful.
Yan Xiuji saw him running away, and finally got rid of the burden in no time. After that, he threw these things into the car first, and when he didn't want to walk anymore, he could just ask the driver to pick him up.
Xiao Li, who had been waiting nearby, returned to the car and drove the two to a place not far from the bridgehead. The two got out of the car and slowly walked towards the bridge.
There were many people walking and jogging on the road. Zhou Ziyi and Yan Xiuji were wearing suits, which was a bit out of place, but not too eye-catching. The two walked side by side slowly. Zhou Ziyi looked at several young people in sportswear running by and said with emotion: "I think I used to be a self-disciplined person who often went to the gym."
"Want to go?" Yan Xiuji said, "There's a community gym membership card at home. It should be on the bedside table. Just take it and use it."
"Well, I've been off for so long, I feel like I can't be self-disciplined." Zhou Ziyi said, "One day of rest, every day of rest, I don't think I can stick to it... By the way, I haven't seen you go to the gym, you don't even count as a shower card, right?"
"It's just a gift for paying the property fee." Yan Xiuji said, "I remember there should be a heated swimming pool. If you don't like equipment, it would be nice to go swimming."
"Oh, that's a good idea. I like playing in the water." Zhou Ziyi said, "If you have time, can we go together? On weekends or something?"
"Okay..."
The two chatted as they walked to the bridge head, and as they walked up the slope of the auxiliary bridge, the view gradually became brighter. The river breeze on the bridge was more obvious, but fortunately the weather was getting hotter, so wearing a two-piece suit and enjoying the breeze was quite comfortable.
Less than ten meters after walking up the bridge, Yan Xiuzhi, who was walking on the side of the road, looked at the guardrail with changing colored lights and suddenly remembered something.
He silently moved to the other side of Zhou Ziyi, separating the young man from the guardrail.
Zhou Ziyi: "Hmm?"
Yan Xiuji didn't explain, but just held his hand and calmly chatted about daily topics: "Do you need to adjust your financial plan? Can I help you with the repayment plan?"
Zhou Ziyi was still thinking about the question of "suddenly holding hands", but his attention was diverted: "...Really?"
"What's so fake about this?" Yan Xiuji held his hand, his big hand steady, "It's not shameful to owe money. What's important is that the funds flow. As long as the liquidity is good enough, we don't have to worry about how much money we owe."
"Brother, you sound like a big capitalist." Zhou Ziyi said happily, "Please don't compare your Huahao with me, okay? I know there must be a lot of banks and investors queuing up at your door, begging you to take their money. How can I compare with you?"
Yan Xiuji pinched his fingers and said, "Why not? You owe money, and so do I."
"That's different..." Zhou Ziyi looked at the lights on the bridge and said, "Well, I originally thought I was pretty amazing. I could still hold on. But after meeting you, I feel like a frog in a well. My incompetence is my original sin..."
"No one requires everyone to be good at finance." Yan Xiuji saw that he liked to look at the lights, so he didn't ask him to look at the road himself, but helped him pay attention to the road ahead. "And you are really amazing. If I were in your situation, I might not do better than you."
"You're being modest again, aren't you? Being too modest is arrogance, you know?" Zhou Ziyi paused, then smiled at him again, "But there is one thing I am better than you."
"What?"
"You're lucky." Zhou Ziyi said happily, "I picked up a big CEO for free, and you picked up a debtor. It's obvious that you're more unlucky."
Yan Xiuji turned his head and looked at him: "I am lucky too."
"..." Zhou Ziyi was silent for a second, then immediately said, "Okay, don't explain!"
Yan Xiuji raised his eyebrows.
"Where did you learn all this?" Zhou Ziyi asked, "I don't think you're that kind of person. Did you secretly read some love manual?"
Yan Xiuji said: "I am telling the truth."
Zhou Ziyi...Zhou Ziyi decided not to talk to him for the time being.
Yan Xiuji didn't rush him. Anyway, they were holding hands. If Zhou Ziyi quickened his pace, Yan Xiuji wouldn't fall behind. President Yan also paid close attention to Zhou Ziyi's gaze, making sure that there was no other meaning in his eyes when he looked at the river.
When they had walked one-third of the way, Zhou Ziyi suddenly spoke again.
"Actually, there is something...I have always wanted to discuss it with you."
Yan Xiuji looked at him: "What?"
Zhou Ziyi lowered his eyes and thought: It shouldn't be a problem if I tell him.
Yan Xiuzhi saw that he hesitated again, so he didn't urge him and walked slowly with him.
After a while, Zhou Ziyi said, "It's... something about my sister."
