Chapter 63
Li Kun tried hard to suppress the corners of his mouth and said, "No, no, I just had a dinner appointment with a friend."
Ji Jinsi, who usually had no interest in Li Kun's friends, suddenly asked, "Friends? What kind of friends would be so happy?"
Li Kun's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately said, "It's nothing, you don't know him. Oh, I remembered I have a document to sign, I have to go get busy."
Looking at Li Kun's hurriedly leaving back, Ji Jinsi was confused, but he didn't care much and quickly put the matter behind him.
Two days later, Luo Qingli landed safely in North City.
After learning from informant Li Kun that Ji Jinsi was still busy at the company headquarters and had no time to go home, she secretly returned to Linshui Huazhu.
After opening the door with her fingerprint, Luo Qingli discovered that Ji Jinsi's house was still the same as before, and even had less of a sense of life than before she left.
"Meow." The soft body rubbed against the instep of Luo Qingli's feet, and Xiaoli called to Luo Qingli in a flattering manner.
Luo Qingli quickly picked up the little guy, "Xiao Li, I didn't expect you still remember me!"
She held Xiaoli in her arms, petted the cat, and watched the changes in the house.
When she walked to the guest room where she had lived before, Luo Qingli found that the things she had left behind were still in their original places, as if she had never left.
She curled the corners of her lips, her heart filled with bubbles of happiness.
After playing with Xiaoli for a while and taking a rest, Luo Qingli went out to the supermarket.
Since she came here secretly, she naturally wanted to give Ji Jinsi a surprise, but she was at a loss as to how to create this surprise.
Finally, I remembered the dinner I had made with Ji Jinsi and decided to recreate that dinner.
Arriving at the familiar supermarket, Luo Qingli bought similar ingredients as that day. When he went to pay the bill, Luo Qingli saw Ye Wanrou across a shelf.
She had completely lost her usual domineering demeanor. She was dressed in ordinary clothes, with almost no makeup on. She stood next to a middle-aged man with a blank expression.
Luo Qingli seemed to have heard Jiang Ran say that after the scandal, Ye Wanrou's reputation plummeted, various brand endorsements terminated their contracts with her, and she was also burdened with a huge amount of liquidated damages.
Her lifeline Qian Daqiang focused his attention on Zhao Yanran and completely abandoned her.
Later, I heard that Ye Zuxing had found a marriage partner for her. Although the man was worth over ten billion, he was an old man whose two wives had died.
Just like Luo Qingli before, Ye Zuxing was ruthless and sold his valuable daughter directly, even though this daughter was once his most beloved daughter.
Now it seems that the man next to Ye Wanrou is her future husband.
Just as Luo Qingli was stunned, Ye Wanrou also saw her.
She turned her face away subconsciously, not wanting Luo Qingli to see her current appearance, then turned her head away again, as if she wanted to say something to Luo Qingli.
Luo Qingli ignored him and pushed the cart directly to the checkout counter.
She could guess what Ye Wanrou was going to say, but she didn't want to hear it.
Even if Ye Wanrou now repents for the wrong things she did to her, she has already suffered those injuries, and no matter how much she apologizes, it cannot be erased.
After returning home with the things, Luo Qingli sent a message to Li Kun, asking him to persuade Ji Jinsi to come back for dinner in the evening.
Li Kun looked at the message sent by Luo Qingli and was very excited about the secret deception he had done to Ji Jinsi.
"Li Kun, have you been idle lately? You stay in my office without doing any work and smile foolishly at your phone?" Ji Jinsi said in a cold tone.
Li Kun quickly put away his phone and said seriously, "No, I just thought it's been a while since I last visited headquarters, so I came here today to deliver some information and to see you, Boss."
Obviously, Ji Jinsi didn't believe his excuse at all.
"I feel like you've been acting a little strange lately?" Ji Jinsi's intuition was very accurate.
"How could that be? I've always been like this." Li Kun forced out a smile and said, "Boss, are you busy today?"
Ji Jinsi glanced at him and didn't want to answer his question, but continued to look at the documents in his hand.
Li Kun got up from the sofa, walked up to Ji Jinsi and said, "There's no end to the work, Boss. Just take a break and go home early for dinner tonight."
Ji Jinsi frowned at Li Kun's incoherent words. He put down the documents in his hand, looked at Li Kun and asked, "Are you saying something else?"
"No, how could that be? I'm doing this for your health. If you get sick from all this, Qingli will definitely be worried."
When Li Kun mentioned Luo Qingli, the seriousness in Ji Jinsi's eyes eased a little.
He remembered that because of work, he could only say a few words to Luo Qingli over the past two days. Today, work was almost over, and he finally had time to say a few more words.
Li Kun was afraid that if he talked too much, he would be exposed, so he quickly said: "I have seen you, Boss. If there is nothing else, I will slip away. I have things to do over there."
Without waiting for Ji Jinsi's response, Li Kun quickly slipped away.
Ji Jinsi didn't take this episode to heart. Li Kun was a restless person, and he was used to his occasional tantrums.
Ji Jinsi was concentrating on his work again. When he looked up again, the lights outside the window were already on.
He looked at the time and found that it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. The hunger in his stomach was tormenting his nerves.
He wanted to continue, but when he remembered what Li Kun said, Ji Jinsi took off his glasses and rubbed his eyebrows.
He stood up and walked out of the office. Almost half of the lights in the company were turned off, but some offices were still brightly lit.
He suddenly felt a little tired of this kind of life.
Returning to Linshui Huazhu, Ji Jinsi opened the door and saw that the lights were on inside.
He frowned, a hint of vigilance in his eyes.
Because of his personal habit, even if the aunt came over and prepared the meal, she would turn off the lights and would never leave the lights on like this.
He walked in quietly, and Xiaoli jumped out from somewhere and meowed at Ji Jinsi a few times.
Ji Jinsi walked in and saw the familiar figure lying on the dining table.
Under the gentle light, an exquisite dinner was placed on the table, and the girl lay on the table, breathing slowly and leisurely, as if she was waiting for someone to come back, but she fell asleep early because she was too tired.
Ji Jinsi felt so soft in his heart that he walked gently to Luo Qingli.
He knew at a glance that the dishes on the table were the ones he and Luo Qingli had cooked together before.
A smile appeared on his lips, he sighed softly, and reached out to pick up Luo Qingli.
She woke up the moment she came into contact with Luo Qingli.
The girl opened her eyes hazily, and when she saw the person in front of her, she suddenly smiled.
"Are you back?" Luo Qingli rubbed his eyes. "I wanted to wait for you to come back, but I didn't expect you to fall asleep."
"I'm sorry, I'm back late." There was apology in Ji Jinsi's eyes. If he knew that Luo Qingli had prepared dinner for him, he would definitely come back earlier.
Luo Qingli smiled and shook his head, saying, "I wanted to give you a surprise, how can it be your fault? If anyone is to blame, it's Li Kun. He didn't persuade you to come back sooner."
Li Kun somewhere in the city suddenly sneezed, "Who is talking bad about me behind my back!"
"Have you had dinner?" Luo Qingli asked.
Ji Jinsi shook his head.
"Then I'll go heat up the dishes." Luo Qingli wanted to stand up, but was held down by Ji Jinsi.
"You've worked so hard for so long, let me do it."
Watching Ji Jinsi busy in the kitchen, Luo Qingli smiled and picked up the freeze-dried food beside him to feed Xiaoli.
Ji Jinsi just heated up the steak and other things and quickly brought out the dishes again.
When he smelled the fragrance, Luo Qingli felt his stomach growling.
She cut a piece of steak and took a bite. Although the meat was still tender, it was not as flavorful as when it was fresh out of the pan because it had been reheated.
But she didn't say anything, but ate very contentedly.
The two of them ate dinner without speaking, but the atmosphere was particularly reassuring.
After finishing the meal and cleaning up, Ji Jinsi hugged Luo Qingli and sat on the sofa.
"Why did you suddenly think of coming to see me?" Ji Jinsi asked while stroking Luo Qingli's fingers.
"Mozhu wants to open a physical store in North City, so I came here to give you a surprise." Luo Qingli looked at Ji Jinsi and asked, "Are you surprised?"
Ji Jinsi lowered his head and kissed her forehead lightly, saying, "It's a surprise, I'm very happy."
After hearing Ji Jinsi's words, Luo Qingli finally felt satisfied.
"I suddenly realized that the longer I'm away from you, the more restless I become. I want to leave the company and go find you." Ji Jinsi said softly.
"Mr. Ji, this is not your usual style." Luo Qingli joked.
"Yes, it's all your fault. You changed me and made me different from before."
"Heaven and earth are my witnesses. I didn't do anything..."
Before Luo Qingli could finish her words, she was stopped by Ji Jinsi's kiss.
Ji Jinsi's kiss was much more passionate than before. Luo Qingli felt that his tongue was numb from being sucked and he could hardly breathe.
The air began to burn, Luo Qingli's whole body turned red and he trembled slightly.
Something pressed against her belly, gentle, yet unignorable.
"Qingli, is it okay?" Ji Jinsi's voice was hoarse, and his hot breath sprayed on Luo Qingli's ears, making her already slightly red earlobes even redder.
He needs her.
And she needs him too.
"Yeah." Her voice was as thin as a mosquito, but it was successfully captured by Ji Jinsi.
Ji Jinsi picked up Luo Qingli and slowly walked towards the bedroom.
At night, it started to rain, the sound of the rain gradually grew louder and louder, and finally it poured down like a torrential downpour all over Heze.
The rumbling sound of thunder occasionally rang in Luo Qingli's ears. She felt like a small boat sailing in a storm, searching for that moment of white light in waves.
Finally, the wind and rain subsided, and Ji Jinsi lowered his head and lightly kissed Luo Qingli's moist lips.
"I love you."
The gentle whisper faded into the night and could no longer be found.
The next day, when the sun was already high in the sky, Luo Qingli slowly opened his eyes.
The long-lost soreness came over Luo Qingli, and he stood up and found that his whole body had been cleaned and changed into pajamas.
She was a little dazed, and suddenly felt as if she had returned to three years ago.
The sound of the door opening brought her back to reality.
Unlike before, Ji Jinsi walked towards her with a gentle expression and kissed her on the cheek.
"Are you awake? Are you hungry? Get up and eat."
