Chapter 67 I won’t be cold to you anymore
Jiang Yi raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Xu Jinxi to directly reveal the news that Ling Yue's boss was the second daughter of the Qi family.
Cheng Feng stood at the door of the office and looked at the two of them vigilantly. He would not let anyone in without Miss Ji's permission.
Xu Jinxi looked at Jiang Yi nervously. She had been rejected once in the mall last time, so she knew that Miss Qi did not easily meet strangers.
Jiang Yi smiled gently, "I need to ask my boss for instructions."
He did not deny that Lingyue's boss was Miss Qi Er.
Xu Jinxi glanced at Cheng Feng, who was guarding the office door, then quickly looked away and looked at Jiang Yi and said, "Okay."
Jiang Yi looked at her deeply, then turned and went into the office.
Cheng Feng was still guarding the door like a door god. Xu Jinxi didn't dare to get close to him for fear of angering him.
Ji Jinhe had finished looking through the documents and was now typing on his phone.
Jiang Yi walked in and curled his lips. "That Xu Jinxi doesn't seem very smart. She can't even predict market trends. Why does the Xu family think she's better than you?"
Ji Jinhe glanced at him, put down the phone and picked up the orange juice, "No problem?"
She was asking about the contract.
Jiang Yi placed the contract in front of her. "The lawyer has reviewed it. It's written based on the conditions we requested."
Ji Jinhe picked up the contract and read it again. After confirming that there was no problem, she picked up the pen to sign. Before the pen touched the paper, she suddenly stopped.
Jiang Yi looked at her puzzledly, "What's wrong?"
"Willn't it be exposed if I sign?" Ji Jinhe raised her head and looked at him.
Jiang Yi slapped his head as if he had just remembered something, and said, "Oh!"
"Sign it."
Ji Jinhe ignored his performance and threw the document back in front of him.
Jiang Yi intentionally called her and Xu Jinxi at the same time to confirm the news that Lingyue Technology was the property of the second daughter of the Qi family.
Jiang Yi took the document with a smile and signed his name neatly.
"Miss Xu wants to see you." Jiang Yi looked up after signing.
"Me?" Ji Jinhe glanced at him.
"To be precise, it's 'the second young lady of the Qi family'."
Ji Jinhe picked up the phone and continued typing, "No."
As the eldest daughter of the Xu family, it is not enough for her to meet the second daughter of the Qi family.
Jiang Yi had the same idea. He went out and pretended to be regretful to tell Xu Jinxi the bad news.

In the afternoon, Ji Jinhe returned to Jiasui to finish his work and returned home on time in the evening.
After finishing her meal, Ji Jinhe lazily lay on the sofa. Qi Xiuxu had an engagement tonight.
After cleaning the kitchen, Aunt Liu came out and looked at her lazy appearance and smiled: "If you are tired, go to bed. You don't know when the young master will be back."
"Yeah." Ji Jinhe's muffled voice came from her arms. After a while, she stood up, said hello to Liu Ma, and went upstairs.
The empty villa was quiet. After taking a shower, Ji Jinhe came out and looked at the dim lights downstairs. He guessed that Liu Ma had returned to the backyard to rest.
The lights in the corridor were on. Ji Jinhe looked at the closed door diagonally opposite, opened it and walked in.
…
It was already 10:30 in the evening when Qi Xiuxu returned, and a light was left on on the first floor of the villa.
He turned off the lights and went upstairs. He paused when passing by Ji Jinhe's room. There was no light coming through the bottom of the door, and the person inside seemed to have fallen asleep.
He sighed and turned to open the door of his room. The light from the corridor came in through the door, and he raised his hand to touch the switch.
His eyes casually swept across the room and suddenly stopped.
There was a bump on the previously flat bed, and it was gently undulating.
Qi Xiuxu withdrew his hand from pressing the switch and walked towards the bed with light steps.
On the bed, Ji Jinhe lay on her side with her soft long hair spread out, breathing steadily.
A smile flashed across his eyes, and Qi Xiuxu reached out and gently touched her cheek.
A hand suddenly reached out from under the quilt and grabbed his wrist. Ji Jinhe opened his eyes slightly and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't make noise."
Qi Xiuxu grabbed her hand and chuckled, "Why did you come here to sleep?"
"Wait for you."
His hand was slightly cool from outside. Ji Jinhe was too lazy to move and let him hold it, sniffing the faint smell of alcohol on the other person with the tip of her nose.
Qi Xiuxu felt itchy inside when he saw her lazy look. He reached out and stroked the back of her neck and said with a smile, "Then you've waited for it now."
After saying that, he lowered his head and gave her a gentle kiss, entwining them tenderly.
Except for the first kiss on the cruise ship, Qi Xiuxu kissed very gently every time afterwards. Every time Ji Jinhe pushed him lightly, he would pull away.
In the silent bedroom, Qi Xiuxu knelt on one knee beside the bed and leaned over to kiss the girl he had raised.
When they separated, Ji Jinhe was breathing slightly. The two were very close, and the hot air from each other's breath sprayed on each other's faces.
After a moment, Qi Xiuxu chuckled, lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips, saying gently: "Go to sleep."
Ji Jinhe frowned, rolled up the quilt and turned over with her back to him.
Qi Xiuxu smiled helplessly and turned to go to the cloakroom to get clothes.
When he came out of the bathroom, Ji Jinhe was still asleep.
She half sat up and hooked her finger at Qi Xiuxu, "Come here."
Qi Xiuxu walked over as he was told and looked down at her.
"Go to sleep." Ji Jinhe urged.
Qi Xiuxu sighed, pulled back the quilt, and lay down. Ji Jinhe turned around and rolled into his arms. She frowned, "Why is it so cold?"
She looked up at Qi Xiuxu, moved her body and retreated.
Qi Xiuxu felt the emptiness of his chest and lay there in silence for two minutes. When his body warmed up, he looked at Ji Jinhe and said, "Come here."
"No." Ji Jinhe's voice was muffled under the quilt.
"Be good, come here quickly." Qi Xiuxu coaxed her softly, "It's not cold now."
Ji Jinhe looked back at him, motionless.
Qi Xiuxu chuckled and pulled her into his arms, saying in an indulgent tone, "I won't be cold to you anymore."
Since Yu Cheng asked Ji Jinhe for help to retain Ji Linchuan but failed, Ji Linchuan did not renew his contract and his work gradually came to an end.
Many netizens expressed regret online, among whom Ji Linchuan’s fans were the saddest. Ji Linchuan’s Weibo post about his retirement from the entertainment industry was on the hot search list for several days.
Although he was reluctant to part with Ji Linchuan, Yu Cheng still held a retirement party for him to bid farewell to this artist who had made a lot of money for him.
Ji Linchuan’s retirement party was held in the evening, and the guests invited were all artists and directors in the circle who were on good terms with him.
In the afternoon, Ji Jinhe lazily slumped in his office chair, his fingers tapping the desk intermittently, while his cell phone lay quietly on the desk beside him.
When Mu Zhao came in to report for the third time in the afternoon, Ji Jinhe's phone finally rang.
She raised her eyebrows, as if she had guessed who it was, and said to Mu Zhao with a raised lip, "You go out first."
When the phone was picked up, Su You's carefree voice came out, "Xiao He Miao, are you in Jiasui?"
"Yeah." Ji Jinhe tapped the ground with his toes and turned the chair towards the floor-to-ceiling window.
"I'm coming to you now!"
There came the sound of a car engine.
Ji Jinhe looked at the busy street downstairs and asked with a smile, "Want to attend Ji Linchuan's retirement party?"
