She lay on the back of the sofa behind him, her face pressed against his, her breath burning the corners of his lips, seriously disturbing him. Fu Yanzhou couldn't concentrate on reading the emails.
I wanted to ask her to sit down several times, but I didn't say it in the end.
He closed the computer and asked her, "Have you had breakfast?"
I ate two slices of bread in the car, and didn't have time to get milk when I went out, so I just drank half a bottle of cold soda water. The whole way I was concerned about whether I could catch up with him and whether I could catch his plane. I didn't feel hungry.
Now I have my arms around his neck and am leaning against him. He is so pretty that I am not hungry anymore.
Min Xi replied: "I have eaten it."
She has a small appetite to begin with, and she used the word "almost" to describe it, which is no different from not eating at all. "Eat some more." Fu Yanzhou took this opportunity to let her let go of his neck so that he could get her food.
"What do you want to eat?" he asked again.
Min Xi didn't let go and said he wasn't hungry.
This did not make her let go, so Fu Yanzhou had to put away the laptop, deal with the remaining emails on the plane, and asked her where she was going on her business trip.
Until this moment, he had never thought that she came to the airport just to see him.
Min Xi said: "No business trip, I'm on vacation, a total of nine days."
Fu Yanzhou turned to look at her: "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
"I decided to take a vacation at the last minute. If I don't take it, this year's vacation will be forfeited."
"You rushed to the airport just to go to Jiangcheng with me?"
"Yeah." I don't want to be home alone.
As he spoke, Min Xi hugged him even tighter.
She clung to him like a child, and Fu Yanzhou was surprised that he didn't dislike it at all, and even enjoyed being so dependent on her. In the past, alumnus Zhou Yu wondered: What kind of person are you looking for?
Don't act pretentiously or be unreasonable. Give him absolute personal space, don't stick to him, and don't affect his work.
In the end, she didn't take any.
Min Xi rubbed his cheek and whispered to him: "Hey."
Fu Yanzhou turned his head again, and their breaths intertwined, "What happened again?"
Min Xi covered it with her hands to prevent the bodyguard from seeing and kissed him on the lips.
Fu Yanzhou remained calm, but when she kissed him just now, he couldn't help but hold his breath.
He raised his eyes and looked at her teasingly: "What can you block with one hand? Treat them as fools?"
Min Xi was a loser. After the kiss, his heart was pounding. He laughed, "Is it not allowed for me to try to cover my ears and steal the bell?"
Her waist became uncomfortable after lying down for too long, so she let go of his neck, walked around from behind the sofa, and sat down next to him, with the hem of her long skirt pressing against his legs.
Fu Yanzhou took down the hem of her skirt and straightened it.
Although she said she was not hungry, he still poured her two cups of freshly ground coffee and gave her a piece of dessert.
The coffee had no sugar or cream, which Min Xi was not used to, but she also tried coffee of different flavors.
Fu Yanzhou was considering where to go on vacation. The weather was getting colder in November, and Jiangcheng had four distinct seasons. There were no fun places in autumn and winter. It was rare for her to have a long vacation, and he couldn't always let her accompany him on business trips.
While he was thinking about it, he realized that her skirt was pressing against his legs again.
Fu Yanzhou then realized that she had deliberately put her skirt on his legs. This was a public place, and she was embarrassed to put her legs on him, so she had to put her skirt on him.
He rested his chin on his hand and looked at her. Her strange train of thought seemed to have no end.
Min Xi was eating dessert and glanced sideways: "What's wrong?" What was he staring at her for?
Fu Yanzhou: "Nothing."
If the hem of her skirt presses on his trousers, she'll be happy, so let it do so.
He looked away and picked up his coffee to drink.
This time when she went to Jiangcheng, the leader of the Investment Promotion Office went to the airport to pick her up in person. He had dinner parties at noon and in the evening and had no time to accompany her. He sent a message to Yan Heyu, asking him to arrange another car to pick up Min Xi.
Yan Heyu: [Min Xi is going too? Not going to work tomorrow? 】
Fu Yanzhou: [Vacation. 】
He didn't expect that she was willing to accompany him on a business trip to Jiangcheng.
After getting on the plane, Fu Yanzhou turned on his computer, spent half an hour dealing with emails, and then studied the information sent by his uncle. His uncle recommended several hair care product R&D teams to him. They had potential and ideas, but they lacked money, which met his investment requirements.
Min Xi was half lying by the window on the other side, looking at the sea of clouds. She had followed him to Jiangcheng in a daze, without even planning her vacation properly.
She turned to look at Fu Yanzhou. His profile was cold and focused. He was wearing a black suit today. He usually wore black shirts and gray suits more often. Black was the least common suit in the cloakroom.
Yesterday and today, he wore black clothes of different brands for two consecutive days.
She stood up and went over to kiss him.
Fu Yanzhou was considering which team to invest in when she suddenly came over and he hastily closed the page.
"Don't you want to sleep for a while?"
When he looked at her, he was calm and composed.
Min Xi didn't notice anything unusual: "I'm planning to sleep."
She sat next to him, her chin resting on his shoulder, and said nothing.
Fu Yanzhou now understood what many of her actions meant. He put down the mouse, held the back of her head, and bent down to kiss her.
He held her lips and kissed her softly, without deepening it.
Every time he coaxed her, kissing her once was not enough, so this time he kissed her three times.
That adds up to more than a minute.
Fu Yanzhou left her lips, hugged her, and said in an indulgent tone: "Is it okay?"
Because he indulged her and would not easily refuse, Min Xi became more and more demanding: "No."
His lips then covered hers again, hooking the tip of her tongue and kissing her.
She was drowned in his scent and his passionate kiss.
Back on the other side of the cabin, Min Xi's heart was still beating violently.
Fu Yanzhou calmed his breathing secretly and reacted. He used his suit to block himself.
It took him a long time to get into working mode. He took off his suit and put it on the armrest next to him.
Min Xi had just taken a few sips of iced juice when her father called her. The last time they contacted each other was on the day of Shengshi’s press conference. Her father told her that he went home in the evening to watch the live broadcast recording and was very interested in Xiao Xiaoshi. He planned to buy one to keep at home.
"Hello, Dad."
"Did you work overtime today?"
"No, rest."
"Then come back for dinner? Your mother and I are home."
"You're all home? Dad, weren't you busy out of town last night?" Min Xi sat up straight. Her parents were finally at home, but she missed them. They must be disappointed. She blamed herself and felt regretful: "Dad, I'm on a plane to Jiangcheng now. I can't go back to have dinner with you and mom."
"Don't take it personally. It's just a family meal. It's not a big deal." Min Jiangyuan comforted his daughter and changed the subject: "Can you make phone calls on the plane now?"
"Oh, Fu Yanzhou's plane, go with him."
What he wants most is that his daughter and son-in-law get along well with each other. What he feared most was that his daughter’s marriage would be like theirs, in name only.
Min Jiangyuan: "You guys go play, your brother happens to be busy today."
Min Xi could only comfort herself: "Then you and mom can just enjoy your own world."
Min Jiangyuan just smiled and said nothing. He looked up at his wife who was arranging a long wooden table in the yard. Since she got up, she had only said two sentences to him.
Jiang Rui just came back from outside. She bought a big bunch of white roses and was currently trying to wake them up.
My daughter likes white roses, so she bought some for the table setting. The sun was shining today, there was no wind, and the temperature was neither too hot nor too cold when we had dinner in the yard. The Shengshi press conference was very successful. She was unable to attend the event to support it, so she had to reward her daughter today.
Min Jiangyuan hung up the phone with his daughter and came out of the villa.
"Xixi was on vacation and was bored at home, so she accompanied Fu Yanzhou to Jiangcheng."
Jiang Rui was putting flowers in the vase and nodded when she heard this.
Min Jiangyuan sat down at the wooden table, which was specially bought for his daughter so that they could enjoy the flowers and the moon and eat snacks in the yard.
"noon……"
He had only said two words when his aunt came out of the room. Jiang Rui said to her, "They are all too busy to come back for lunch. Please give me a light meal at noon."
As for what Min Jiangyuan wanted to eat, she didn't ask and didn't want to interfere.
After being apart for so many years, she almost forgot what he liked to eat.
Now I don’t want to remember it anymore.
Min Jiangyuan was interrupted and didn't continue.
Auntie didn't leave, still waiting for Min Jiangyuan's instructions.
Min Xi and Min Ting were not around. He looked no different from when he was working, with a serious expression and an aura that came from being in a high position for a long time that was intimidating. Anyway, Auntie usually didn't talk much if she could.
"Make me some home-cooked meals."
Min Jiangyuan emphasized again: "Don't add any spicy flavor."
Aunt: "Okay."
She left quickly and went to the kitchen to prepare food.
Min Jiangyuan has lived in the south for many years and his taste has become lighter.
The children were not at home, and it was finally possible for the two of them to have dinner together, but they ate separately.
Jiang Rui specifically told her aunt to take the light meal to the wooden table in the yard. She would rather eat in front of the flowers and the red leaves in the yard than in front of him.
When she was young, she racked her brains to find things to talk to him about, but now, when there is no common ground, even a single word is too much. The passion that I once thought could last a lifetime has been worn away and diluted by the years.
Min Jiangyuan was busy in the study for a while. When he went downstairs, his aunt was carrying some light meals to the yard. His home-cooked meals were on the dining table in the living room.
He didn't like eating in the yard, except when his daughter came home.
He called out to his aunt and asked her to bring all the dishes to the wooden table outside.
Jiang Rui had just taken a few bites when a dark shadow blocked the sunlight. Min Jiangyuan sat down opposite her. She looked up and said, "The children are all out of town and won't be back for a while. You don't have to act anymore."
Min Jiangyuan didn't say anything and picked up his chopsticks to eat.
Jiang Rui put down her fork halfway through her meal and picked up the soup at hand to drink.
The two of them stared at each other in silence for a long time, and Min Jiangyuan finally spoke: "Don't want to eat anymore?"
Jiang Rui said, "I'm full."
She was very thin, and the blue veins on the back of her hand were particularly clear. Min Jiangyuan couldn't help but say, "You are already this age, not a young person in your twenties or thirties. You don't need to lose weight. Health is the most important thing."
Both she and Min Jiangyuan have maintained a good figure and can still wear the clothes they wore when they were young. She is not trying to lose weight on purpose, but keeping in shape makes her happy.
But she didn't want to say anything more now.
Jiang Rui finished his soup in silence and put down the bowl.
"If," she looked at him, "you knew thirty years ago that life would be like this, would you still get married?"
Min Jiangyuan didn't expect her to ask such a question.
Jiang Rui said: "I won't do it anymore."
She wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin, then stood up and went back to the villa.
--
The plane landed in Jiangcheng. Min Xi left the airport first, as Fu Yanzhou had other social engagements. When she arrived in downtown Jiangcheng, she checked in at a famous snack bar on the food street.
I took photos while eating and sent them to my mother: [Mom, your favorite, I’ll eat it for you first. When dad retires, let him accompany you to this restaurant in Jiangcheng. 】
Jiang Rui used to fly to Jiangcheng frequently when her daughter was still young. Jiangcheng was not so prosperous more than 20 years ago. All the shops were concentrated on two streets and there were not many tall buildings. Jiangcheng still remained the same ancient and quaint appearance in her memory.
Jiang Rui stopped thinking: [Your father retired early. I don’t know when yet. When you are no longer busy, you can go with your mother. 】
Min Xi suddenly missed the days when his family went traveling together when he was a child. At that time, his father was not as busy as he is now, and he could still take time to take them around.
At that time, they didn't need to bring a driver or bodyguards, and no one knew them.
But it’s not possible now.
[Mom, you talk to Dad about when our family can find a place to travel. It will just be our family of four plus Fu Yanzhou. There's no need to mobilize a large group. 】
Jiang Rui always agreed with her daughter on everything: [If you don't want to make a big fuss, you have to find a place with very few people, preferably a short trip to the suburbs. I'll talk to your dad about where to go. 】
The only time when everyone can get together is during the few days after the Chinese New Year.
While eating, Min Xi was thinking about where they could go if the family went on a trip.
After lunch, she returned to the hotel where she was staying. It was still the same Riverview Hotel where she stayed the last time she came to Jiangcheng. The room number had not changed.
Accompanying someone on a business trip is a very boring thing. I spent an hour looking at the river view in front of the 270-degree floor-to-ceiling window, and then spent two hours writing the project plan for Lemeng Food.
Min Xi called one of Fu Yanzhou's bodyguards and asked where Fu Yanzhou was socializing that night and asked him to send her the location.
"I'll pick you up."
bodyguard:"……"
Probably just too idle to do anything.
Fu Yanzhou had told them that if Min Xi asked where he was, they could give her his location directly without his permission.
Min Xi informed the bodyguard: [Don’t tell Fu Yanzhou that I’m going to pick him up. Give him a surprise. By the way, I'm driving tonight, you sit in the passenger seat and don't say a word. 】
bodyguard:"……"
He silently glanced at the boss who was entertaining people in the private room, feeling like he was betraying his boss.
Yan Heyu is also at the dinner tonight. The first investment from Lingyu Group has arrived and the construction start date has been set. This is the biggest happy event this year for Jiangcheng Park.
Yan Heyu toasted Fu Yanzhou and asked, "Do you plan to settle down in Jiangcheng?"
Fu Yanzhou raised his head slightly and drank the wine in one gulp, glancing at him from the corner of his eye: "You can't sell your house, so you want me to sell it?"
"..." Yan Heyu laughed: "What do you mean it can't be sold? You have to find connections to buy villas in that area. If you want to buy one, I'll leave one for you at an internal price. You can be my neighbor."
Fu Yanzhou put down his wine glass and said mercilessly: "I won't consider being your neighbor."
Yan Heyu was so angry that he laughed: "If you don't want to buy it, forget it. If you want to buy it one day, don't come to me for help."
Fu Yanzhou sneered and ignored him. At that time, schoolmate Zhou Yu also advised him to buy a house and become his neighbor. Zhou Yu's parents live in Melbourne. After graduation, Zhou Yu returned to inherit the family business.
Lingyu Group's overseas branch has cooperation with Zhou Yu's company, and he has always been in close contact with Zhou Yu.
The house that Zhou Yu suggested he buy had a yard of several thousand square meters, a sports court, and an outdoor swimming pool. However, after he bought it, he rarely lived in it for a year, and he had to find someone to clean and maintain it while it was idle.
The last time he went there on a business trip was a year ago. He heard that the yard has now become a place for Zhou Yu's dogs to roam around.
Min Xi hasn't seen that house yet, but she should like that style.
--
At this time, in the River View Hotel on the other side.
Min Xi changed into casual clothes and found a pair of flat shoes to put on. She took her cell phone and went out, taking a taxi to the address given to her by the bodyguard.
Fu Yanzhou's car was very high-profile. The Maybach was parked in the open-air parking lot in front of the hotel, and the driver was leaning against the car door smoking.
"Uncle Chen, please go back to the hotel. I'll drive you."
Min Xi explained: "I have nothing to do, so I picked up Fu Yanzhou from get off work."
The driver didn't ask any more questions: "Okay."
Min Xi sat in the driver's seat, and the first thing she did was to raise the partition. She would be a serious driver today and let Fu Yanzhou feel that her driving skills were no worse than Uncle Chen's.
We waited until half past ten before Fu Yanzhou and his group came out of the hotel.
The bodyguard knew in advance that the driver in the car was Min Xi. He quickly walked down the steps in front of the hotel and opened the back door for Fu Yanzhou. This job was previously done by the driver Uncle Chen.
Helping others to cheat the boss was the first time in his career.
After Fu Yanzhou got in the car, the bodyguard sat in the passenger seat.
Min Xi smiled and thanked the bodyguard, then started the car and drove away.
After getting in the car, Fu Yanzhou leaned back in the chair to rest. He had drunk a few more glasses of wine tonight, and Min Xi didn't like the smell of alcohol, so he opened the car window a little to let in some fresh air.
I was closing my eyes to rest when I suddenly felt my body leaning forward slightly, and the next second my body leaned back into my seat.
He thought the driver had braked suddenly to avoid other cars, so he opened his eyes and looked out the window. The cars next to him were slowly stopping, and there was a traffic light ahead, so there was no avoiding car.
Fu Yanzhou couldn't help but frown. He clearly felt the inertia of the brakes just now. With Uncle Chen's driving skills, he shouldn't have felt it so obviously.
He didn't think much about it and narrowed his eyes again.
Suddenly remembering Min Xi's long vacation, he asked her: [Where do you want to go in the next few days? I can spare a week. 】
Min Xi looked at the traffic light. There were still more than 30 seconds. The sound insulation was good, so Fu Yanzhou couldn't hear her from behind. She replied by voice: "The weather in Melbourne is just right now. Then we'll go to the Gold Coast?"
Fu Yanzhou: [Yes.] 】
After replying to Min Xi, he sent a message to Zhou Yu: [My wife and I are going there for vacation. Please have someone clean up my house in advance, clean the swimming pool a few more times, buy some white roses for the living room and dining room, and also some white gentian to go with it. There is no need to invite a chef, just come to your house for dinner. 】
Zhou Yu knew that he was married. When he just got the marriage certificate, Zhou Yu called him to congratulate him: You got married so quickly, it seems you have met your ideal type.
He smiled, not knowing what to do.
Zhou Yu also asked him when he would bring Min Xi over to live with him for a while and drink together.
At that time, he and Min Xi had nothing to talk about and had no plans to go out.
Zhou Yu was busy and didn't see his message.
Fu Yanzhou locked his phone, squinted his eyes and continued to rest.
The restaurant where the business dinner was held was not far from the hotel where he was staying, only a ten-minute drive. The traffic in Jiangcheng was not so congested at night, so Min Xi drove back to the hotel basement smoothly.
The parking spaces with convenient entry and exit were all occupied, so Min Xi could only slowly back into the parking space in the corner.
The bodyguard looked anxious and wanted to lend a hand to help her with directions several times.
Fu Yanzhou opened his eyes and laughed to himself. He now understood why the car stopped with a noticeable lag when waiting for the traffic light on the road. It turned out that the driver had changed and couldn't control the accelerator well.
He lowered the tailgate and said gently, "Xixi, stop the car. Don't back up."
Min Xi: “…”
She looked at him in the rearview mirror: "Why aren't you surprised at all? Did you guess it was me?"
Fu Yanzhou nodded.
Min Xi stopped trying to show off.
Fu Yanzhou got out of the car, and she also got out and handed the car to the bodyguard.
The process of picking someone up tonight was very pleasant, but the only flaw was that the surprise was not enough. She was not familiar with the performance of the car, and he guessed it was her at once.
"I'll practice this car some more when I have time."
"No need to practice, you drive very well." Fu Yanzhou looked at her and said, "Next time you sit in the back seat, I'll be your driver."
As he said that, he took her hand and walked towards the elevator.
