Chapter 102 Is it a date?

Counselor Zhang was originally worried that Zeng Chenglin might take a long time to recover from such a serious incident and would not be able to participate in the speech competition. Although he felt it was a pity, it was also understandable.

Unexpectedly, Zeng Chenglin said that he would participate in the speech competition on time.

Teacher Zhang was a little surprised to hear this, and patted Zeng Chenglin on the shoulder: "The competition is only a few days away, you should do your best, but you should also pay attention to the combination of work and rest."

Thinking of Zeng Chenglin having multiple rolls before, Teacher Zhang couldn't help but remind him.

Zeng Chenglin smiled shyly and nodded to indicate that he understood.

After saying goodbye to Teacher Zhang, Zeng Chenglin went to look for Qi Nian again. Because so many things happened before, he had not thanked her yet. Now that he came to his senses, he felt particularly embarrassed.

If it weren't for Qi Nian, perhaps he would never know the truth in his life. When he thought that he would always treat his enemy as a benefactor, Zeng Chenglin couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"You're welcome." Seeing Zeng Chenglin coming over to thank him, Qi Nian felt a little embarrassed.

Zeng Chenglin didn't say anything nice, but he was truly grateful to Qi Nian, but there was nothing he could do for her.

Qi Nian saw that he seemed a little regretful. He understood what the other party was thinking. He racked his brains and thought about it. It turned out that there was a place where Zeng Chenglin's help was needed.

He scratched his face and said shyly, "Well, can you do me a favor?"

Zeng Chenglin's eyes lit up and he nodded without hesitation: "Of course, you say."

"It's that speech competition. I had planned to watch it before, but I only made a reservation and could only buy one ticket later." Qi Nian sighed: "I wanted to bring other people, but I couldn't buy any more tickets."

God knows, tickets for a speech competition are so popular. Qi Nian really didn't get many tickets. Later he specifically checked why the tickets were so hard to get.

It turned out that there was a second-generation star in this competition, and he had quite a large fan base.

Any strange thing becomes reasonable once it is related to the fan circle.

What Qi Nian mentioned was an easy thing for Zeng Chenglin to do because he was one of the contestants and every contestant could get a ticket from the organizer.

Zeng Chenglin has no family and no close friends, so the ticket is of no use to him. If the ticket can be used elsewhere, it will be good for him.

"The tickets sent by the organizer should be delivered soon, and I'll give them to you then." Zeng Chenglin seemed a lot happier, perhaps because he felt that he could help Qi Miao.

He thought for a moment and said, "Our tickets should have designated seat numbers. Tell me the seat number of the ticket you grabbed and I'll get you a seat next to the others."

Qi Nian's eyes lit up. He didn't expect Zeng Chenglin to be so considerate. He immediately agreed.

After solving the problem, Qi Nian was in a good mood and was humming a song when he went home.

"Why are you so happy today, Nian Nian? Is there something good?" Ning Min couldn't help but smile when she saw Qi Nian's expression.

Oh, when it walks, its little curly hair sways, like a lively little lamb, so cute.

Qi Nian didn't know his aunt was praising him in her heart, so he smiled and said, "Nothing. By the way, where's my brother?"

"As for the study, when he's at home, he has a study and a gym. You can just find it by clicking on the link." Ning Min is worthy of being Chu Rongshi's biological mother, and she knows her son very well.

Qi Nian heard that Chu Rongshi was in the study, and was afraid of disturbing him at work, so he sent a message to ask if he was busy.

Chu Rongshi quickly replied that he was not busy.

Qi Nian chuckled and said, "Why are you still in the study?"

However, since Chu Rongshi said he was not busy, he went straight to the study door and knocked. After opening the door and going in, he found Chu Rongshi half leaning on a chair, looking at him with a smile.

So handsome! Qi Nian's heart was pounding. He tried to stay calm and closed the study door.

Seeing Chu Rongshi still looking at him, he coughed lightly and said, "I came to see you for something."

Chu Rongshi changed his posture and looked at him with his chin propped up: "Go ahead."

Qi Nian put his hands behind his back, perhaps a little embarrassed, and said with a groan: "Are you busy the day after tomorrow? I would like to take up half of your time."

Chu Rongshi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Date?"

Qi Nian's face flushed, and she was too embarrassed to answer directly. She glared at him fiercely: "Why are you asking so many questions? Are you going or not?"

Chu Rongshi said without hesitation: "Of course I will go."

He looked at Qi Nian leisurely and asked, "So what are your plans for that day?"

Qi Nian was happy and said with a smile: "I don't have any plans, just watching a speech competition."

Chu Rongshi: “?”

This date seemed different from what he had imagined.

However, since Qi Nian took the initiative to invite him, Chu Rongshi had to agree happily no matter what he had to do.

"Okay, I will make time for it that day," said Chu Rongshi.

Qi Nian was satisfied, nodded and said, "Then I'll leave first, you continue with your work."

As a result, just as he turned around, Chu Rongshi walked up behind him without knowing when, grabbed his wrist, put his chin on his shoulder, and chuckled, "I told you, no rush."

At this time, no matter how busy you are, it's not busy.

The ear on the side that got closer to Chu Rongshi instantly turned red. Chu Rongshi smiled and fiddled with the boy's earlobe. The rough fingers made Qi Nian feel as if an electric shock was passed through the touched part, and he couldn't help but shiver.

"You..." Qi Nian was about to speak, but felt that his voice was very strange, so he immediately pursed his lips and glared at Chu Rongshi fiercely, expressing his anger with his eyes.

But what he didn't know was that his beautiful deer eyes with watery light not only had no intimidation, but were more likely to arouse men's desire.

Qi Nian looked at Chu Rongshi with a changed expression. He thought something was wrong and wanted to run away immediately, but was caught by Chu Rongshi again.

Chu Rongshi laughed and said, "Why are you running?"

Qi Nian still pursed her lips: You know why I am running away.

A little sheep tried its best to defend itself, but was finally kissed by the big bad wolf and was covered with the wolf's scent.

Qi Nian was filled with anger: I really misjudged Chu Rongshi, he is not serious at all!

——

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the speech competition. Chu Rongshi kept his word and freed up a day.

This time the finals will not be held in the school auditorium like the last competition, but in a specially rented studio and will be broadcast on satellite TV.

"Zeng Chenglin is still number ten, and I don't know how long it will take for him to get his turn." Qi Nian originally estimated that it should be quick, but later he found out that he was wrong.

Why did the host ask each contestant to stay and say something after the speech? In the time it took to speak, another five minutes passed, catching up with the length of a speech.

Qi Nian suspected that they were after the water.

Compared to the chats between the hosts and contestants, Qi Nian prefers watching the speeches.

Although he originally came for Zeng Chenglin, but after watching a few people, he found that the speech was really fascinating. You can't help but be moved by the speaker's passion and you can also hear many new viewpoints. In short, Qi Nian watched it with great gusto.

Finally it was Zeng Chenglin's turn. Qi Nian was originally worried that his opponent had hardly practiced and would suffer a loss compared to other well-prepared players. However, after hearing Zeng Chenglin's speech, Qi Nian was shocked.

From the enthusiastic applause from the audience when Zeng Chenglin bowed at the end, we knew that he would definitely win an award.

Qi Nian secretly approached Chu Rongshi and exclaimed, "Zeng Chenglin is awesome."

Chu Rongshi glanced at the person on the stage: "Is he the one who gave you the ticket?"

Qi Nian didn't notice anything wrong with Chu Rongshi's expression, so he nodded, his eyes still looking at the stage.

Chu Rongshi pursed his lips slightly, said nothing, and raised his hand to pinch Qi Nian's cheek.

Qi Nian turned around in confusion: "What's wrong?"

Chu Rongshi asked, "Does it look good?"

Qi Nian was stunned for a moment, his cheeks flushed, thinking that Chu Rongshi was asking about him.

Ahem, why are you asking this question all of a sudden? But I have to say that in this dim environment, Chu Rongshi is still so handsome that people can't take their eyes off him.

Qi Nian thought that no one around would notice them at this moment, so he hesitated for a moment and whispered, "It looks good."

When Chu Rongshi saw the young man's red face and embarrassed eyes, the sourness just now disappeared in an instant, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

Qi Nian was shocked. Why hadn't he noticed before that his brother cared so much about his appearance? He was watching the game when he suddenly asked this question.

He moved his butt and looked at the stage seriously, not ready to flirt with Chu Rongshi for the time being.

After the host finished talking to Zeng Chenglin, the judges in the audience announced Zeng Chenglin's score.

Qi Nian calculated quickly and muttered, "It feels pretty high. What rank is it now?"

Chu Rongshi: "Currently second."

"Wow, you figured it out just by taking a glance. You even remember the scores of those people?" Qi Nian's eyes were full of stars.

Chu Rongshi felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by Qi Nian, so he coughed lightly and said, "It's not difficult."

Okay, humble as always.

Just now there was a player in front who had participated in many competitions, so it was normal for him to beat Zeng Chenglin.

But there weren't that many players like him in this competition, so Qi Nian felt that Zeng Chenglin would be able to win a prize no matter what.

As he expected, there were no particularly amazing speeches afterwards, and in the end, Zeng Chenglin still came in second place.

The awards were presented on the spot in the finals. Qi Nian looked at Zeng Chenglin, who was standing in the second place, and felt happy for him from the bottom of his heart, clapping his hands.

Seeing that Chu Rongshi didn't applaud, he poked him with his elbow and said, "Clap your hands quickly!"

Chu Rongshi: “…”

No one noticed that somewhere in the audience, a pair of resentful eyes were staring viciously at Zeng Chenglin on the stage.

If Zeng Chenglin saw him, he would be very surprised. However, in just a few days, Liang Fanyou changed from a rich second-generation man dressed in designer clothes to a gloomy and resentful man. Even if Zeng Chenglin stood in front of him, he would be stunned for a moment before recognizing him.

At this time Liang Fanyou looked at Zeng Chenglin with hatred. Why, why could Zeng Chenglin still stand on the stage so brightly, while he turned into a rat in the gutter overnight. He almost didn't dare to appear in front of those people he used to know.

Those who originally praised his father's kindness now turned around and accused and cursed his family, saying that his parents were murderers and he was the son of a murderer, and that he should be arrested as well.

His originally wonderful life was gone, and the main culprits were Zeng Chenglin and Qi Nian.

Why is Zeng Chenglin so cruel that he must force them into a desperate situation? And Qi Nian, why does he have to meddle in other people's business!

He has fallen to this point because of them. They all deserve to die! Liang Fanyou suddenly laughed, his expression turned crazy.

The awards ceremony was over and it was time to leave. On the way, Qi Nian suddenly felt his nose itchy and sneezed while covering his mouth.

Chu Rongshi saw that the tip of his nose was red and smiled for no apparent reason.

Qi Nian glanced at him in confusion and muttered strangely, "What are you laughing at?"

Chu Rongshi didn't say anything, but raised his hand and pinched Qi Nian's nose.

Everyone thought: “???”

He glanced at Chu Rongshi with a blushing face and said nothing.

At this moment, he saw a figure rushing towards them. Qi Nian's eyes widened and he subconsciously grabbed Chu Rongshi: "Be careful!"

Chu Rongshi reacted quickly, his expression froze, and he looked at the person rushing out defensively, ready to attack at any time.

At the same time, two big men rushed out from nowhere and rushed over.

But it looked like the two big men were coming for the figure that rushed out.

Just when everyone's emotions were tense, the figure who rushed out suddenly got caught on something and fell flat on his face with a "bang".

Everyone thought: "..."

Chu Rongshi: “…”

Two big men: "..."

The people around: "..."

The two men reacted quickly and ran to the side of the figure. One of them held the other's arm to prevent him from attacking again.

Qi Nian looked at the two big men who were defending tightly: "..." No, it really isn't that necessary.

At this time he also saw the figure's face clearly. It was Liang Fanyou. How to put it, he was surprised but not too surprised.

Liang Fanyou came to his senses at this moment, feeling extremely ashamed and angry, and struggled desperately, but with his weak body, how could he possibly break free from the shackles of two big men?

So compared to Liang Fanyou, Qi Nian is now more curious about the two big men. Although he has always known that Chu Rongshi sent people to protect him, this is the first time he has seen them.

"Brother, are they the bodyguards you hired?" Qi Nian asked secretly.

Chu Rongshi signaled with his eyes for the big man to take the person away, nodded and said: "Well, there are two more, take over."

"Where are they taking Liang Fanyou?" Qi Nian looked at the two big men and had the illusion that they were the evil ones. He couldn't help but grab Chu Rongshi's arm and reminded him earnestly: "Brother, lynching is a great law."

Chu Rongshi looked at Qi Nian strangely, his face full of the words "obey the law" and "What are you thinking? Hand them over to the police."

Qi Nian touched his nose awkwardly: Well, it's just that he has too much imagination.

Not far away, Liang Fanyou struggled hard, but the two big men remained motionless. Seeing that they had ignored his thoughts, he was completely defeated.

He had originally intended to take revenge on Zeng Chenglin, but there were always people around Zeng Chenglin, and he also happened to see Qi Nian, so he changed his target and planned to teach Qi Nian a lesson.

Focus on one thing. If you don’t have a good life, others won’t have an easy life either!

But he didn't expect to be so unlucky and ended up falling flat on his face. Moreover, Qi Nian was so unsportsmanlike that he even brought bodyguards with him.

Moreover, the other party deliberately ignored (?) him, which was simply too much.

Since he couldn't fight back, Liang Fanyou just cursed: "Qi Nian, I am like this today because of you. You will get your retribution sooner or later, you..."

Before he could finish his words, Chu Rongshi's originally gentle gaze suddenly turned cold and he looked at Liang Fanyou fiercely.

Liang Fanyou, who was about to say something more vicious, felt as if his neck was strangled. His mind went blank for a moment, and then one of the big men covered his mouth and took him into the car.

Chu Rongshi's face didn't look very good as he waited for the car to drive away.

"Brother, don't be angry. It's not just for that person." Qi Nian racked his brains to make Chu Rongshi happy. He raised his finger, pressed the tip of his nose, pushed it up, and looked at Chu Rongshi with his head shaking: "Brother, look at me~"

Chu Rongshi's eyes were instantly replaced by a smile: "Little pig."

Seeing that he was happy, Qi Nian put his hand down and pretended to be angry, "I am trying to make you happy but you are stabbing me in the back!"

Chu Rongshi immediately changed his words and said dryly, "It's not a little pig."

Qi Nian deliberately made things difficult for him: "Then what is it if it's not a piglet?"

Chu Rongshi frowned, as if he was thinking about some huge problem, and finally added two more words: "Cute little pig."

Qi Nian couldn't hold it in any longer and patted Chu Rongshi: "Hahaha, that's still a pig!"

——

On this day, Qi Nian had nothing to do at home, so after thinking for a while, he decided to go to the company to give Chu Rongshi a love lunch! Well, he deliberately didn't tell the other party, wanting to give Chu Rongshi a surprise.

Since Chu Rongshi had personally instructed it before, Qi Nian did not encounter any obstacles when coming to the company this time.

On the contrary, when the front desk lady saw Qi Nian, she immediately asked enthusiastically: "Do you need me to notify the President's Office for you?"

If that were the case, wouldn't the surprise be gone? Qi Nian immediately shook his head and refused decisively.

The lady at the front desk didn't ask any more questions when she saw this.

The last time Qi Nian came to the company, he went to Chu Rongshi’s office, so he remembered the way.

When they arrived at the door of Chu Rongshi's office, several secretaries working outside were stunned for a moment. They naturally all knew Qi Nian.

After a while, a woman in her early thirties came over quickly and took the initiative to take him to Chu Rongshi's office.

"Ah? Is my brother in a meeting?" Qi Nian put the loving lunch on the coffee table. He didn't expect that today was such an unfortunate time.

He glanced at the time. Well, it was still ten minutes before dinner time. Fortunately, he was using an insulated lunch box, so the food wouldn't get cold in a while.

After assistant He Yi finished explaining, he left the office. A moment later, he knocked on the door and came in, bringing Qi Nian some exquisite snacks and afternoon tea.

Qi Nian felt a little embarrassed and quickly stood up and took it: "Thank you, sorry to bother you."

"You're welcome. I'm working outside. You can always come to me if you need anything." He Yi said with a smile and did not disturb Qi Nian again.

After she left, Qi Nian glanced at the snacks on the table and pinched one: "Hmm, delicious."

Before he knew it, he had finished the whole plate of electric rice. Qi Nian felt embarrassed to bother He Yi, so he planned to go back and ask Chu Rongshi to get him some more snacks.

However, he thought Chu Rongshi would come back in ten minutes, but half an hour after dinner time had passed and Chu Rongshi still hadn't come.

Could it be that he didn't know he was coming? As soon as this thought came to his mind, Qi Nian rejected it. It was impossible. He Yi would definitely tell his brother.

Therefore, it is highly likely that Chu Rongshi is still in a meeting.

Qi Nian sighed, opened the office door boredly and took a look, only to find that the other secretaries had left and He Yi was still sitting at his workstation.

As soon as he saw him coming out, He Yi immediately stood up and asked with a smile: "Do you need any help?"

Qi Nian shook his head somewhat uncomfortably and asked, "Why don't you go to eat?"

After asking, he came to his senses and thought, could it be that he didn't go to eat because of me?

Qi Nian felt extremely guilty. He never thought that he would become a capitalist who exploited others one day. He quickly said, "Go and have your meal. Don't worry about me."

He Yi smiled and said, "I asked other colleagues to help bring it. I just happened to have some work to do."

Qi Nian could only nod: "Okay."

He returned to the office and waited for a while. It was almost two o'clock when the office door was finally opened.

Chu Rongshi walked over quickly, lowered his head and kissed him on the forehead: "Why didn't you say anything before you came here?"

Qi Nian poked his face with her finger and said faintly, "If I had told you in advance, I wouldn't have known you worked so hard."

Chu Rongshi coughed lightly and changed the subject: "Eat, I'm hungry."

Considering how hard he worked, Qi Nian didn't say anything. It was just that after so long, the food had gotten a little cold and needed to be heated up.

Qi Nian couldn't help but say, "I've seen many CEOs in novels have stomach problems, so don't give yourself a stomach problem."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Rongshi felt a pain in his stomach: "..."

Qi Nian looked at him puzzledly: "What's wrong?"

Chu Rongshi shook his head: "Nothing, can you go and get me a cup of hot water? The tea room is in the corner of the corridor."

Qi Nian nodded without thinking too much, then stood up and walked out of the office. After walking a few steps, he suddenly realized that he didn't even take the cup, so he patted his head and walked back.

As a result, I met He Yi at the door, who was holding hot water and stomach medicine.

Everyone thought: "..."

He knocked on the office door and walked in. When Chu Rongshi saw what he was holding in his hand, he felt something was wrong.

Chu Rongshi: "Nian Nian..."

Qi Nian fiercely said: "Drink the medicine first!"

Chu Rongshi did not dare to refute and took the medicine obediently.

Then, Qi Nian whispered in Chu Rongshi's ear, "You have stomach problems and you don't eat on time," "You even wanted to get rid of me just now," and so on. Chu Rongshi thought it was a bit cute at an inappropriate time.

Finally, the matter ended with Chu Rongshi promising to eat on time every day and punching in to send it to Qi Nian.

Qi Nian stayed here until Chu Rongshi got off work. Because of his presence, the other party finished all work as soon as the deadline came.

Just as he was about to leave, an employee came over and asked Chu Rongshi to sign.

Chu Rongshi looked at Qi Nian.

Qi Nian: “…” Why are you looking at me?

He stood up uncomfortably: "Don't worry, I'll wait for you downstairs."

"Yeah." Chu Rongshi then lowered his head to look at the document.

Subordinate: Good fellow, the boss is controlled so strictly by his younger brother? But these two... don't act like brothers, but more like...

Chu Rongshi frowned and tapped the table with the tip of his pen: "I'm asking you a question."

The subordinate came to his senses and stopped having wild thoughts.

Qi Nian arrived downstairs of the company building and saw He Yi from a distance. There was a man in his early twenties next to him. The man was saying something enthusiastically, as if he wanted to get closer, while He Yi was hiding away with a troubled look on his face.

Good fellow, sexual harassment in broad daylight? Qi Nian's eyes widened and he quickly walked over.
