Chapter 44
It’s Ji Jinsi.
He didn't know why he was here.
At this moment, he was hugging Luo Qingli, his eyes full of frost. He looked at Jiang Yao and said with a cold smile: "It seems inappropriate for Young Master Jiang to do this in public, right?"
Jiang Yao was pushed away and was about to get angry, but when he saw it was Ji Jinsi, the anger on his face immediately disappeared.
He straightened his wrinkled clothes, smiled at Ji Jinsi and said, "It's Mr. Ji. I didn't expect to meet you by chance. You're actually back from Country A. It seems that the matter over there has been resolved."
"There's no need for you to worry about that, Mr. Jiang." Ji Jinsi hugged Luo Qingli and was about to leave.
"Hey, wait, we just met and you're leaving before we even chatted for a few minutes? Ji Jinsi, at least let me say goodbye to the beautiful woman in your arms."
Ji Jinsi did not respond, but hugged Luo Qingli tighter.
"Luo Qingli, I hope you can consider my proposal carefully. I will wait for your reply." Jiang Yao shouted from behind.
When Luo Qingli heard Jiang Yao's words, he subconsciously looked up at Ji Jinsi and saw that he still had a cold face, as if someone owed him billions.
Ji Jinsi had a cold face and tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart.
He had finally finished dealing with things abroad and hurried back home. When he heard that Luo Qingli was in this restaurant, he came to find him.
Unexpectedly, I saw Jiang Yao and Luo Qingli behaving intimately at first glance.
He had only been away for a few days when a short-sighted man came up to him. Ji Jinsi's anger and jealousy mixed together, almost making him lose his mind.
After turning a corner, Ji Jinsi opened the door of an empty private room next to him, quickly closed it, and pushed Luo Qingli behind the door.
He supported Luo Qingli's head with one hand and touched Luo Qingli's face with the other, like a hungry beast greedily caressing its prey.
"What do you think about what he just said? Do you want to agree to him?" Ji Jinsi's voice was calm, but Luo Qingli could sense a hint of anger in it.
She quickly shook her head and said, "How is that possible? I pushed him into the water last time and embarrassed him. Now he just wants to take revenge on me. He said all that just to get back at me. I'm not that stupid."
After Luo Qingli finished speaking, he looked up at Ji Jinsi and found that he was still angry, so he said, "Besides, I don't like his type. I think he's dirty."
Luo Qingli's words were very effective, like a spring breeze that melted the frost in Ji Jinsi's eyes. His originally frozen eyes became gentle again, like running water coming to life.
"That's right, Jiang Yao is too philandering. He changes women more frequently than he changes clothes. It's hard to say whether he has any physical or mental problems. Next time, remember to stay away from him."
Luo Qingli was a little surprised. Ji Jinsi didn't seem like the kind of person who would say bad things about others behind their backs. Could it be that Jiang Yao was really sick because he was too promiscuous?
"Well, next time I see him, I will stay away from him."
Ji Jinsi smiled, he reached out and touched Luo Qingli's hair and said, "That's right."
Someone's overwhelming jealousy was resolved by Luo Qingli in just a few words, but Luo Qingli didn't notice it. She didn't think that Ji Jinsi was jealous, but felt that Jiang Yao was Ji Jinsi's enemy, and Ji Jinsi was angry because he saw her and Jiang Yao together.
"When did you come back? Why are you here? Is there a business dinner?"
Ji Jinsi was stunned, straightened up, and subconsciously concealed his true intentions. Instead, he said, "I just came back and just wanted to find a restaurant to eat."
"Oh, it's getting late. Don't starve yourself. Go eat. Jiang Ran is waiting for me outside. I'm afraid she'll get anxious."
After Luo Qingli finished speaking, he opened the door and slipped away without waiting for Ji Jinsi to answer.
Ji Jinsi looked at Luo Qingli's leaving back, feeling helpless and amused. He should have asked her to stay.
Luo Qingli returned to the restaurant. Jiang Ran waited for her to sit down before asking, "What's wrong? You went to the bathroom for so long, I almost couldn't help but go look for you."
"Nothing, I just ran into your brother when I came out of the bathroom."
"What? You met Jiang Yao? He didn't do anything to you, did he?" Jiang Ran quickly looked Luo Qingli up and down.
"No, I just said some incomprehensible words, and then I ran away."
"What did he say?"
"Something like that."
Jiang Ran's face was full of understanding. "It seems like something he would do. I'm telling you, don't trust Jiang Yao. Nothing he says is true. He makes promises to women one night, but turns his back on them the next day."
"Well, I don't want to believe him." Luo Qingli suddenly became curious, "Has Jiang Yao always been like this?"
Jiang Ran shook her head and said, "I heard that Jiang Yao was very well-behaved and introverted when he was young, until he started dating a girlfriend in high school and his family found out. They disliked her family background and forced the two of them to separate. In the end, the girl died in an accident. Since then, Jiang Yao has been a different person."
"Accident?"
"Well, it seems to be a car accident. I don't know for sure. No one in the family dares to mention it now."
Luo Qingli nodded. She didn't expect that Jiang Yao had such a story.
"I'm going to take an early flight to Mocheng tomorrow. Qingli, will you be lonely at home alone?"
Luo Qingli was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that he seemed to have not told Jiang Ran that he would go to live with Ji Jinsi.
"Actually," Luo Qingli said carefully, "Ji Jinsi asked me to move in with him after you left."
"What? You want to live with Ji Jinsi!" Jiang Ran couldn't help but raise his voice.
"No, that's not what I meant. You've got the wrong idea." Luo Qingli quickly signaled Jiang Ran to speak in a lower voice.
Jiang Ran covered her mouth, looked around, and when she found no one was paying attention, she let go and whispered, "You're going to live with him, isn't this considered living together?"
"It was only because of what happened that he let me live with him to protect my safety."
Jiang Ran looked at Luo Qingli with interest and said, "I think it must be because Ji Jinsi likes you too much, so he can't wait to spend more time with you. Protecting your safety is just an excuse."
Being bluntly put by Jiang Ran, Luo Qingli was stunned for a moment and subconsciously denied: "What do you mean by like? How could Ji Jinsi like me?"
"How is it impossible? If he doesn't like you, he will help you everywhere. If he doesn't like you, he will always save you? Don't tell me that he does so much to you just because you are his partner. Do you think Ji Jinsi is that kind of person?"
Ji Jinsi is not that kind of person. Luo Qingli knows very well that Ji Jinsi has always been very indifferent to other people.
Could it be that Ji Jinsi really likes me?
Luo Qingli recalled every little thing that happened during this period of time in his mind. Thinking about it this way, Ji Jinsi was really too abnormal, completely different from his previous self.
She had never realized it because she had been deliberately ignoring these things.
Luo Qingli lowered his head and said, "But I don't think I'm worthy of being liked."
"Why not? Even if we look at your appearance, you have a great figure and good looks. If we look at your career, you're the CEO of Mozhu. If we look at your talent, you're a master perfumer who can blend fragrances. And if we look at your personality, you're calm, smart, positive, and optimistic. How can there be nothing worth liking about you? If I were a man, I'd definitely be the first one to pursue you!"
Jiang Ran's sweet words made Luo Qingli smile.
"To be honest, maybe it's because of my childhood experiences, I've always had a sense of inferiority in my heart. I always feel that no one will love me. If he doesn't clearly tell me his thoughts, I will only think pessimistically." This was the first time that Luo Qingli analyzed his inner thoughts with others.
Although she had a happy childhood, after coming to North City, she was surrounded by malice. She subconsciously regarded everyone as a bad person and thought everything in a bad way. If someone did not tell her clearly that this was what he meant, she would always subconsciously deny her feelings.
Just like Ji Jinsi, even though she had noticed a little bit that he treated her differently, he had never said that he liked her, and she was afraid of being too sentimental.
Jiang Ran held Luo Qingli's hand, his eyes full of heartache, "Qingli, I know what you mean. It's okay. If Ji Jinsi doesn't express it to you, it means he's not right for you. You should find someone who expresses his love to you passionately at all times, not someone who requires you to constantly guess what he's thinking."
Luo Qingli nodded, perhaps what Jiang Ran said made sense.
"People with your personality need to find a happy puppy."
"Happy Puppy? What's that?"
"It's just like a dog. No matter how you push him away, he will rush over to you regardless of everything and always express his utmost enthusiasm and love for you! This way, you don't need to guess whether he loves you or not, because he has already fully expressed it to you!"
Luo Qingli thought about it, couldn't help but smiled and said: "Your description is indeed quite interesting."
"However, I'm not suitable for a happy puppy because I'm already very happy. I'm suited to someone who can tolerate me and work quietly. That's how we complement each other."
"For example, Lin Pingyu?"
"I didn't talk about him, Qingli, what are you talking about!" Jiang Ran pretended to hit Luo Qingli.
Luo Qingli quickly begged for mercy. The two laughed and joked for a while. Luo Qingli calmed down and said, "Ranran, no matter what you think of Lin Pingyu, I still want to remind you that he is Xiaobao's father, and there is also a Xiaobao between you. Not everyone can accept being a stepmother. If you two stay together, your future will be much more difficult."
Jiang Ran lowered his head and said, "I know this. I'm not thinking about the future right now. Let's just take it one step at a time. Qingli, I'll think about it carefully."
After the two finished their meal and were about to leave, when they reached the restaurant door, Luo Qingli saw Ji Jinsi again.
He was standing at the door, seemingly talking to someone on the phone.
Jiang Ran quickly poked Luo Qingli's arm and said, "Hey, Qingli, look, is that Ji Jinsi? Why is he here? Is he here to pick you up?"
"You're overthinking it. He should be here for dinner. Let's go. Didn't you say you wanted to go shopping and buy some small gifts?"
However, before the two of them left, Ji Jinsi had already discovered them.
Ji Jinsi walked forward, looked at Luo Qingli and asked, "Have you finished eating?"
