Chapter 32
Luo Qingli was facing the glass door, chatting with Feng Fang, but when he was distracted, he suddenly saw Ji Jinsi pushing the door in.
The words that were on the tip of my tongue were suddenly cut off.
Why did Ji Jinsi come here? How did he know I was here? Or was it just a coincidence?
Luo Qingli even suspected that he was dreaming. How could Ji Jinsi appear in such a place?
Feng Fang noticed that something was wrong with Luo Qingli. She followed her gaze and saw Ji Jinsi standing behind her.
Feng Fang was startled and quickly stood up and greeted, "Mr. Ji, are you coming to dinner too?"
"Yes, we heard that the food in this restaurant is delicious, so we decided to come and try it." Li Kun followed behind Ji Jinsi and took over the conversation.
Li Kun looked at Ji Jinsi, who was silent and only staring at Luo Qingli, and raised his eyebrows and said, "Since we met by chance, let's eat together."
Since the leader had spoken, Feng Fang dared not disapprove, so the group sat down at the only round table in the store.
Luo Qingli sat somewhat restrainedly, with Feng Fang on her right, Ji Jinsi on her left, and Li Kun and his wife opposite her.
Li Kun ordered several dishes, then put down the menu and introduced Cheng Ruxuan beside him, "Ruxuan, this is the Mozhu perfumer I told you about before, Mr. Luo Qingli."
The woman who was originally sitting next to Li Kun with a calm expression suddenly brightened up when she heard these words.
"I really like Mozhu's perfume." Cheng Ruxuan whispered.
He seems to be even more socially anxious than Luo Qingli.
Facing someone who was even more socially anxious than himself, Luo Qingli responded a little more enthusiastically than before: "Thank you for your love. It's my honor."
Cheng Ruxuan tugged at Li Kun's sleeve and whispered something to him. Li Kun nodded and went to the store to get paper and pen.
"Mr. Luo, my wife has always liked you, so I'd like to trouble you to sign for her."
Luo Qingli took the paper and pen, feeling very honored.
It was the first time someone asked for her autograph.
Li Kun continued, "She really liked the bottles of perfume you gave her last time. Unfortunately, the card you put in the perfume was taken away by Jinsi, so I can only ask you to sign another one."
Hearing this, Luo Qingli raised his head and looked at Ji Jinsi in surprise.
Ji Jinsi seemed to have been watching Luo Qingli silently. When he noticed that Luo Qingli was looking at him, he looked away calmly.
That card was taken away by Ji Jinsi? What did he do with it? Luo Qingli couldn't figure it out.
After signing, Luo Qingli took the initiative to say to Cheng Ruxuan: "Do we need to add contact information? When Mozhu releases new products, I will give them to you."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Ruxuan nodded quickly, her face flushed with excitement.
The two added each other on WeChat, and Luo Qingli discovered that Cheng Ruxuan's avatar was a very cute cartoon character.
"Your avatar is so cute." Luo Qingli praised.
Li Kun proudly clicked on his WeChat profile picture to show Luo Qingli: "This is the couple profile picture that Ruxuan drew for me. Mr. Luo, I want to add you too."
He actually drew it himself? Luo Qingli was very surprised.
"So cute, Miss Cheng is amazing."
Although he was praising Cheng Ruxuan, Li Kun's expression was as proud as if he was praising himself, "My Ruxuan is amazing, she's a cartoonist, and her comics are very famous!"
Cheng Ruxuan secretly pinched the soft flesh on Li Kun's waist, smiled at Luo Qingli and said, "Don't listen to his nonsense."
The little movements of the two could not be hidden from the eyes of the people present. Luo Qingli sighed in his heart, he did not expect that Li Kun and his wife had such a good relationship.
Feng Fang said it directly from the side: "Mr. Li, you two have a really good relationship. Who was the one who pursued who in the beginning?"
"Of course I was the one who pursued her!" Li Kun became excited when talking about this.
"Ruxuan is a year younger than me. I fell in love with her when I was welcoming freshmen. I pursued her for three years and finally got her, so we got married as soon as we graduated!" Li Kun said this with a face full of pride.
"Ms. Cheng is so beautiful, you must have had a lot of competitors at that time, Mr. Li, right?" Feng Fang asked again.
"No, there's nothing we can do about it. It's all because Ruxuan is so outstanding. All those men are flocking to her."
"Then why did you, Mr. Li, get chosen in the end?"
"What else could it be? Of course it's because I'm handsome!" Li Kun smiled evilly.
Cheng Ruxuan pinched him again and said, "Actually, it's because he's a bit stupid."
Feng Fang listened, her eyes gleaming with gossip, "Ms. Cheng, can you tell us more about it?"
"Hey, there's nothing to say." Li Kun hurriedly tried to stop him.
Cheng Ruxuan ignored him and spoke directly, "When he was pursuing me, he was really persistent. No matter where I went, I would run into him. Whenever I encountered difficulties, he would help me solve them without asking. Also, don't look at him as he usually seems carefree, but he is very attentive to me. Before I knew it, I found myself falling in love with him."
This was the longest speech Cheng Ruxuan had said today, but it was very sincere.
Li Kun, such an extroverted person, became a little shy after hearing what Cheng Ruxuan said.
"Well, in the end it must be because I'm too handsome. Oh, boss, why hasn't the food been served yet? I'll go and urge him." Li Kun fled the scene in a panic.
Cheng Ruxuan looked at Li Kun's departing back and said with a smile: "He must have gone there to be secretly moved."
"I didn't expect Mr. Li to be so sentimental." Feng Fang's face was filled with envy. "The relationship between Ms. Cheng and Mr. Li is truly enviable. By the way, Qingli, are you married?"
Unexpectedly, the topic suddenly turned to himself. Luo Qingli quickly put down the teacup in his hand and replied: "No."
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
When Ji Jinsi heard this question, his hand holding the teacup paused.
Luo Qingli looked at the gossipy light in Feng Fang's eyes and replied helplessly, "No."
"Qingli, you are so outstanding and beautiful, but you don't have a boyfriend yet?"
"Maybe it's because I haven't met anyone as nice to me as Mr. Li."
"Oh, you like warm-hearted men like Mr. Li who care about your well-being?" Feng Fang seemed to have made a great discovery.
"Not really." Luo Qingli didn't know what to say. She was not used to analyzing her inner thoughts in front of people she just met.
"Hey, nowadays, when you're looking for a boyfriend, you should look for someone who can coax you, not someone you need to coax. You know, if you just chase someone with all your passion, you'll get tired in the end. Don't you agree?"
Luo Qingli nodded. She had a lot of experience in this matter.
Thinking of this, Luo Qingli subconsciously glanced at Ji Jinsi who was sitting next to him, and found that he seemed to be distracted and did not seem to listen carefully to what others were saying.
Luo Qingli sighed inwardly. Only he could understand the sadness. No one else could, let alone Ji Jinsi.
Li Kun interrupted the topic only after he came back with the boss who was serving the dishes.
"Here it is, the freshly fried kidney is here. I just smelled this in the kitchen and my mouth is watering." Li Kun said exaggeratedly.
"This is the signature dish of this restaurant. It's really good. Mr. Li, please try it."
There were all kinds of stir-fries on the table. Luo Qingli tasted a stir-fried vegetable and felt that the cooking skills of this restaurant were really good. Every dish was full of the aroma of the wok.
Li Kun was not particular about details and stuffed his mouth full, finishing his bowl of rice very quickly.
"Putting aside other things, although the decoration of this restaurant is simple, the food is really good. No wonder they always say that the food in this restaurant is delicious." Li Kun said as he ate.
At this time, it was time to get off work, and more and more employees were passing by the door.
Luo Qingli noticed that several staff members looked outside the door for a few seconds and then left, while some opened the door and came in, as if they saw something, then turned around and left.
The few who stayed behind just sat in the corner, quietly and without saying a word.
I think it’s because of Ji Jinsi and Li Kun.
Thinking about the top and second-in-command of my company sitting there, no matter how much I like the restaurant, I dare not go in to eat.
Therefore, the small shop that is usually very busy now seems a little deserted.
However, Li Kun and his friends ate fairly quickly and didn't eat much either, so it didn't take long for them to pay the bill and leave.
"Ruxuan and I are going home for lunch first. Are you going back to the company?" Li Kun asked.
"My home is nearby, I'll go back and have a sleep too." Feng Fang said quickly.
Luo Qingli was a little conflicted. If she went back to Jiang Ran's house, it would take an hour to go back and forth. If she didn't have enough time, then could she just stay at the company for a while?
"I'll go back to the company with President Luo." Ji Jinsi said.
Upon hearing this, Li Kun said with an expression that said, "Then I'll leave Mr. Luo to you, Boss!"
The three of them left, and now only Luo Qingli and Ji Jinsi were left.
Luo Qingli followed Ji Jinsi silently. Fortunately, there were not many people on the road at this time.
"There is a small lounge in my office. It is usually cleaned and it is very clean. You can rest there at noon." Ji Jinsi spoke first.
"Isn't this a bad idea? If I sleep, where will you sleep? I'd better just lie on the table for a while." Luo Qingli quickly waved his hand to refuse.
"I just spend more time in Linju these few days. I will stay in Ji's more often in the future, so you can use it without worry."
So that's how it is. Ji Jinsi not only has Linju as his company, but he also has to manage so many companies on the Ji side. How can he come to Linju every day?
Thinking that he wouldn't see Ji Jinsi often in the future, Luo Qingli suddenly felt relieved.
"Okay, then I'll respectfully obey."
The two walked to the company door. It was noon and the sun was very strong, so no other people could be seen at the door.
Luo Qingli seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked, "Mr. Li just said that you took the card I put in the gift? Why?"
Ji Jinsi's body stiffened slightly, and then he said, "I just wanted to see if your handwriting has improved over the years, but it turns out it's still the same as before."
Luo Qingli thought of Ji Jinsi's previous description of his handwriting and felt inexplicably angry.
It turns out that he used the card he wrote to mock himself!
Luo Qingli was so angry that he tripped over the curb without paying attention.
She staggered and was about to fall forward.
Ji Jinsi reached out and supported Luo Qingli.
Luo Qingli stood up with the help of Ji Jinsi and complained unhappily, "Look, you've made me so angry that I'm confused!"
"What's there to be angry about? At least it's not ugly." Ji Jinsi took a long time to say.
Luo Qingli rolled his eyes at him and quickly walked into the company.
Ji Jinsi looked at her figure, chuckled, and followed her in.
However, neither of them noticed that there was a car parked on the roadside in front of the company. Zhao Yanran was sitting in the driver's seat, looking at the two people entering the company, her face full of jealous anger.
