Chapter 41 Danger
Ji Yanxing raised his eyes to look at him, his slender fingers placed on the handle of the cup, his noble and pure face looked careless: "Mr. Zhou, you're welcome."
He replied, but didn't drink the wine.
Zhou Yang looked somewhat embarrassed.
Just then——
Li Ming suddenly walked in, glanced at the people at the table, walked to Ji Yanxing's side, bent down and whispered, "Mr. Ji, your wife asked when you will finish. She has arrived at the parking lot."
Ji Yanxing paused for a moment, then raised his eyelids and glanced at Li Ming. Li Ming glanced at Zhou Yang and said in a voice that was neither light nor heavy: "Madam knows that you drank tonight, so she came to take you home."
-
Li Ming was slightly shocked when he received Yu Nian's call.
During this half month of hospitalization, has the relationship between this fake couple progressed so quickly?
——She came all the way to pick up her husband from a social event in the middle of the night. This doesn’t seem like Miss Yu’s character at all.
Not only was he puzzled, Ji Yanxing himself was also surprised, especially when Yu Nian not only came to pick him up personally, but also let him sit on the sofa to rest after returning home, and thoughtfully offered to make sobering tea for him.
Ji Yanxing leaned back on the sofa, looking at the pretty figure walking towards the kitchen, his eyebrows raised. Is Mrs. Ji trying to rob him of his money or to kill him?
It was the first time that Yu Nian made sobering tea for someone. He followed the online tutorial, took the ingredients out of the refrigerator, washed them, and put them in the kettle to boil.
After the water boiled, she added half a spoonful of honey, walked to the living room with the cup, and put the cup on the coffee table.
Ji Yanxing closed his eyes, with the collar of his shirt slightly open, and a faint smell of alcohol emanating from his body, but there was no sign of drunkenness on his face.
I don't know if it's because he can drink a lot or for other reasons, but I heard Jiang Yichen say that he drank quite a bit of wine tonight, but he still looked sober and calm. If you didn't smell the alcohol, you wouldn't be able to tell that he was drunk.
Yu Nian saw that he was frowning. He must be feeling uncomfortable after drinking. She lowered her voice unconsciously: "The sobering tea is ready. Drink some before going to sleep."
Hearing this, Ji Yanxing opened his eyes, glanced at the steaming sobering tea, and then fixed his gaze on her face. Her face was as white as snow, her long eyelashes drooped, and the light cast a faint shadow.
After staring at her for a few seconds, he curled his lips and asked, "What happened today?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Yu Nian said bluntly without beating around the bush, "I'm being attentive."
Ji Yanxing narrowed his peach blossom eyes and snorted, "If someone is being nice to you for no reason, he is either a traitor or a thief."
"..." Yu Nian raised his hand and touched his nose, saying awkwardly, "I do have a little favor that I would like you to help me with."
After parting ways with Shi Chenrui, Yu Nian decided to find someone to back her up. She was not a student living in an ivory tower, nor would she be so noble as to resist a backer. She wanted to take on Tang Mi's case both for public and private reasons, and Hong Tao used his power to pressure her, so she had to fight back.
Her demands were not high. As long as Hong Tao did not let anyone interfere with her, everything else would follow the legal process.
She chose to seek help from Ji Yanxing instead of the Yu family because Mr. Yu always wanted her to return to work in the Yu family's company. It was not certain whether Mr. Yu would help her if she asked for help. He might even take the opportunity to let her change her career.
Ji Yanxing thought for a moment and figured out why she had abandoned the Yu family to look for him. His thin lips curled up slowly, and he leaned back, tapping his temples with his fingertips. "Headache."
He spoke in a tone like a big boss waiting to be served.
Yu Nian was flexible and asked tentatively: "Can I give you a massage?"
Ji Yanxing put his fingers on his cheek and rubbed his temples lightly, "Hmm."
“…”
Why are you pretending to be so cool?
Yu Nian curled his lips, walked to his side, and was about to sit down——
Suddenly, he reached out and grasped her wrist, pulling her onto his lap.
His action was so sudden that Yu Nian was totally unprepared. She just sat astride his thighs and leaned back. Ji Yanxing held her waist in time to prevent her from falling.
The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous.
Ji Yanxing gently massaged her waist, sometimes softly and sometimes not too hard, his eyes were deep, his voice was hoarse from the alcohol, his throat was getting drier: "Sit on my lap and massage."!
This posture is really dangerous.
Yu Nian was wearing wide-leg pants. She knelt on both sides of his legs and pressed her body down, pressing her body against his through the fabric of her clothes.
He put his arm around her waist, and they were very close to each other. She could clearly smell the alcohol on him, and he could also smell the scent of roses on her.
The lights in the living room were not on, and only faint light from the dining room came in. The light was so dim that they could barely see each other's faces. The darkness and silence added a bit of ambiguity to the moment.
Ji Yanxing's Adam's apple rolled slightly, and he lowered his eyes to look into her clear watery eyes, rubbing his fingertips gently on the back of her neck, and said slowly, "Let's get started."
They were too close and the movements were too intimate. Yu Nian felt a little flustered. She slowly stretched out her fingers and covered his temples. She didn't know any techniques, so she just rubbed them gently in circles with her fingertips.
When she raised her eyes again, Ji Yanxing was still staring at her without blinking.
The atmosphere was a little tense, and Yu Nian took the initiative to break the silence: "Did you drink a lot of wine?"
Ji Yanxing: “Yeah.”
With his current status, there is no alcohol that he must drink. Yu Nian frowned, a little annoyed, "Is it a very important partner?"
She shouldn't have called Li Ming.
Ji Yanxing looked at her and said nonchalantly, "It's not as important as Mrs. Ji coming to pick me up in person."
“…”
Yu Nian's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
She thought that even if she had not had a crush on him before, it would have been difficult for her to resist his love words.
“I called Li Ming just to ask where you were,” Yu Nian said. “I didn’t ask him to call you out right away.”
Seeing her explaining seriously, Ji Yanxing wanted to tease her, "Li Ming said that you have been waiting for me in the parking lot for more than an hour. If I didn't come, you would drive away."
Yu Nian: “…I didn’t.”
Ji Yanxing raised his eyebrows and changed the subject: "You also know the person who is having dinner with you tonight."
Yu Nian looked up: "Who is it?"
"Xiao Haoyuan," he paused, and continued, "and Zhou Yang." Yu Nian was a little surprised, "Are you doing business with Xiao Haoyuan?"
"Well, he just opened a new company and asked me to invest."
"Did you give it?"
Ji Yanxing licked his lips and asked her, "Do you want me to give it to you?"
Yu Nian pondered for a moment, then said slowly, "I don't understand business matters, but I've dealt with Xiao Haoyuan several times before, and he's quite reliable."
Ji Yanxing: "He said he owes you a favor."
Yu Nian: "I have a good relationship with his girlfriend, no, his ex-girlfriend. His ex-girlfriend and I went to the same university. He asked me to rent the house to his ex-girlfriend at a low price in my name, and then took her to visit the surrounding area to familiarize her with the environment."
"Your name?"
