Chapter 33 Chapter 33 I miss you so much.
When Chi Ke woke up, he found that he had been deleted by Leng Yunting again.
There was no doubt that he was angry because he was left alone there to discuss business last night.
But let's not talk about the reason for leaving first, let's just talk about the place where the business was discussed. After the previous contact, it was obvious that the prince wanted to play the nightlife game of rich young men with Leng Yunting, and he definitely didn't want a third person to participate. Chi Ke would only be a hindrance and annoying if he was there.
Anyway, Chi Ke did nothing wrong, so he didn't care about being deleted as a friend.
Anyway, when the need arises, Leng Yunting will come forward to add it back.
He scrolled through WeChat, replying to the messages he hadn't had time to respond to last night, and finally fixed his finger on Gitzby's profile picture.
The chat history still stops at the other party's sentence "I can't wait".
I didn’t know what to reply last night. It’s been more than ten hours now, and I don’t know how to reply now.
Chi Ke was rarely able to figure out a solution and felt annoyed.
He glanced at the time. It was only eight o'clock in the morning. Leng Yunting was catching up on sleep after drinking too much yesterday. He didn't need anyone to serve him. He was free today and only needed to buy some gifts for Xu Lemian.
Chi Ke is not familiar with shopping.
Before he became an adult, his mother took care of his food, clothing, and transportation. After he became an adult, his assistant took care of it. The few times he went offline were to get his size customized.
He was busy studying and making money, and had no extra time or energy to devote to entertainment and shopping.
Later, I got sick and had more free time, but I didn’t have the energy to do it, and I wasn’t in the mood to buy things.
Chi Ke came to the mall with a sense of novelty, but he became bored before he had even walked halfway through.
It wastes time and energy, you wander around aimlessly, and you may not necessarily see anything you like. Why do so many people like this activity?
He found a cafe, sat down, and began to search for shopping guides for the mall.
The Internet is great.
The reason humans are smart is that they can develop and use tools.
Chi Ke took five minutes to make a shopping list for Xu Lemian, and another five minutes to decide on a gift for Chi Yuanfan. Now that half of the coffee was left, he thought about it and decided to show Ansel and Ji Qian something as well.
You're here anyway.
Let’s buy it together.
【k:/location/】
【k:This mall has a wide range of brands you like. What would you like to buy? 】
【Ansel: omg】
[Ansel: You can still think of me when you are on a business trip, Chi, I love you so much! ]
【Ansel: I want to marry you! 】
【K: If you give us a discount on next season’s goods, I will marry you.】
【Ansel: Are you obsessed with money? /Death Smile/】
[Ansel: /link/Please check if this coat is available, ex-husband.]
【k: Spreading rumors is prohibited. 】
The good thing about friends is that if you are not sure what to give, you can just ask.
Ansel's gift is easily done.
Ji Qian is no different, he will definitely be able to handle it easily.
Chi Ke easily clicked on Ji Qian's profile picture, opened the dialog box, returned to the main interface, then clicked on Ji Qian's profile picture, opened the dialog box, returned to the main interface, and then clicked on...
Tsk.
Am I crazy?
Chi Ke was disgusted with his own idiotic behavior for wasting five minutes.
What are you asking?
Any questions?
With Ji Qian's personality, he is happy to buy anything.
I think you'd be happier if you just bought it without asking.
Not to mention the big brands, he has always been at the forefront of fashion and has no shortage of new clothes every season.
Not to mention the jewelry, he is no longer the former Mr. Chi and is now very poor.
If all else fails, use a fountain pen.
Ji Qian usually needs to write and sign many things.
There's nothing special about a fountain pen, right?
Wouldn't it be over the line to send it as a gift?
should……
"Hello, sir," the salesgirl greeted me warmly with a gentle smile, "How can I help you?"
Chi Ke: “.”
When did he unknowingly walk to the Montblanc counter?
Well, now I’m here.
"Please introduce me to someone." He said, "For gift giving, male friend."
"Yes, sir," the salesgirl said, "this way, please."
Chi Ke is not very fond of fountain pens, but he would learn about them when his friends like them. In the past, he most often used the Da Vinci le3000 of this brand.
Later, I bought a few more, not intentionally looking for them. I just picked up the ones I was interested in when I saw them passing by, and never selected them carefully.
So when he realized that he had been immersed in the selection for almost an hour, he was shocked and unbelievable.
When he saw the two pens wrapped up by the salesgirl, he was even more shocked and puzzled.
"Sir, this one is only priced at this amount," the salesgirl introduced the new product with a smile on her face, holding up four fingers and making the number eight, "It's very popular recently."
Two is enough.
No more.
It's not an octopus, why do you need so many pens?
But this color really suits Ji Qian.
The price is not expensive.
Think about it from another perspective. Buy two more so you can switch between them when you get tired of writing.
Then let him write for fun.
"Pack them up, and take the white one too." He said expressionlessly, "Just these four, thank you."
There were not many people at noon, and the checkout process in the store was very fast.
He left with his spoils, and when he passed the store entrance, he met a sporty man wearing a baseball cap.
When the man saw him, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes: "It's you?"
Then there was a flash of understanding: "Oh yes, he is here, and you must be here too."
Chi Ke: “.”
What is me? How come I am me?
He had no impression of the man's face or voice. "Excuse me, who are you?"
The other party shook his head: "Forget it if you don't remember, it's okay."
Chi Ke: “?”
Where did the Riddler come from?
He was extremely puzzled. After thinking about the two sentences, he guessed that this person should be Leng Yunting's friend.
Seeing that the other party had not left, Chi Ke asked confidently: "Are you looking for President Leng?"
The other person shook his head: "Meeting you was a coincidence, I came to see the exhibition."
Still a lover of art.
Chi Ke's head buzzed for a moment, and he asked tentatively, "Boss Li?"
"You remembered?" Li Xiuming smiled slightly, "Chi Zhu, long time no see, would you like to go have a cup of coffee together?"
If the doctor knew that this rebellious patient with stomach and heart problems drank two cups of coffee a day, he would probably go crazy in the dean's office again.
Chi Ke was just about to say "Let's go to the restaurant to eat" when he suddenly received an emergency call from home.
"Chi Zhu! Something happened!" Secretary Sun panted, "Xu Lemian fell off the stage while recording a variety show!"
Chi Ke closed his eyes.
The bloody crematorium is not suitable for Xu Lemian and Leng Yunting.
They are suitable for the small dark room forced love script.
As long as you don't go out, you won't harm others.
"Has he been sent to the hospital now?" Chi Ke said as he put on his headphones and switched to the WeChat interface to contact Xu Lemian's agent. "Is the injury serious? Has the cause been investigated? Has the news been spread online?"
"In the ambulance." Secretary Sun sighed, "The ankle was injured before, and now the leg is also injured. Will we be blamed for this?"
Hard to say.
Chi Ke: "I'll give it to President Leng first..."
Secretary Sun lowered his voice and said anxiously, "That ancestor grabbed my hand tightly before getting on the ambulance and told me not to tell President Leng, otherwise he would worry. If I didn't agree, I wouldn't get on the ambulance. Damn, I was so angry that I agreed verbally, and this..."
"I have to tell you. Your boss is Mr. Leng, not him." Chi Ke said, "You have to be mentally prepared this time. I will explain the situation to Mr. Leng, but Mr. Xu probably won't believe you anymore."
"Alas," Secretary Sun sighed longer than his life, "Okay, Chi Zhu, thank you."
"You're welcome." Chi Ke hung up the phone and looked at Li Xiuming, "Mr. Li, I'm sorry, I may not be able to accept your invitation."
He deliberately didn't avoid Li Xiuming when he called, so that he could save himself the trouble of explaining himself and also see Li Xiuming's reaction when he heard Xu Lemian.
As expected, the other party did not disappoint him. He frowned and looked more worried than his special assistant: "Going back to the hotel? I'll take you there to save time."
It would be a waste not to take a free car, especially a comfortable business car.
Chi Ke called Leng Yunting three times in the car, but the other party didn't answer, so he could only send a text message to inform him of the situation.
"Is he seriously injured?" Li Xiuming beside him couldn't help but asked.
"He is now conscious and can talk, laugh and cry. We will have to wait for the hospital examination to know the specific situation." Chi Ke found it strange that he had kept his eyes closed and his lips were pale.
Leng Yunting and Sima Yichen are both a little abnormal. Could it be that this man is the man who is most deeply in love with Xu Lemian?
In the original novel, Li Xiuming is the one with the weakest presence among the trio. He is the illegitimate son of the second master of the Li family. He has a cold personality and is not good at speaking. He first met Xu Lemian at a cocktail party later.
At that time, Leng Yunting was already very interested in Xu Lemian and directly brought him along as his male companion.
Li Xiuming was not welcomed at that time. Xu Lemian was the only one who did not despise his illegitimate status. After his clothes were soaked by wine, he gave him a handkerchief. So Li Xiuming naturally fell for her.
He still has a relatively good moral bottom line and does not become a third party for love. Unlike Sima Yichen, he does not fight and compete with others. He has been giving silently, but his love is in his heart but he cannot express it.
Now the timeline has not reached the point where the two people meet in the book, but Li Xiuming does not react like he has never heard of Xu Lemian's name. He must have fallen in love with her.
It seems that Li Xiuming also has some prerequisites that are not written in the original plot.
Chi Ke was cautious and added Li Xiuming's contact information before getting off the car, using work as an excuse: "Thank you, Mr. Li, for today."
"You're welcome." Li Xiuming still had no expression on his face, and his voice was a little weak. "Leng Er and I are friends, so it's my duty to help him take care of people. As for Mr. Xu...you can contact me if you need help."
Chi Ke nodded meaningfully.
Li Xiuming watched his figure disappear from his sight, and finally couldn't bear it anymore. He suddenly opened the car door and rushed out, holding onto the trash can on the street and vomiting all over the place.
"Boss Li! Water, water is here!" The secretary came running over and sighed, "I told you not to eat so much this morning. You see, eating too much makes you feel even more carsick."
Li Xiuming: “Ugh—”
…
Chi Ke pressed the doorbell at Leng Yunting's room for a long time.
As no one answered the phone and no one opened the door when he knocked, he became a little impatient and kicked the door, almost breaking the door lock.
This time there was finally movement in the inner room.
There was a loud bang, and the door was opened, revealing Leng Yunting's messy hair and a face that was still hungover. "Who allowed you to knock so loudly?!"
"Xu Lemian is in the hospital." Chi Ke got straight to the point. "He fell off the stage and cut his waist. His left leg is currently paralyzed. He is on his way to the hospital. The test results are not out yet. Hello?"
He was stunned for a moment, and looked at the foreign boy standing behind Leng Yunting, who had semi-long hair, was only wearing a shirt, and had kiss marks all over his body.
"Boss Leng, this is..."
"Deal with him. Make him disappear from my sight within five minutes." Leng Yunting took advantage of the fact that this man couldn't understand Chinese and said to Chi Ke, "I didn't make it to the end. I was very drunk yesterday and couldn't get hard. This man wanted to extort money. Give him some money and let him go. Don't tell Xu Lemian about this. Also, what did you just say? Repeat it again."
Chi Ke was silent for a moment, took off his coat and handed it to the boy, then called the front desk to book another room on the same floor. After leaving a check, he returned to Leng Yunting's room and repeated what he had said to Xu Lemian.
"What? Why are you telling me such a serious matter now?" Leng Yunting jumped up from the bed and sat on the sofa. "Let's go to the airport!"
Chi Ke: "Our return flight is at 9pm, and there are no tickets for the next flight."
"Why are you waiting for a plane at this time?" Leng Yunting frowned, "Use all your connections to dispatch a plane—"
"I have already contacted the airport on the way here. Whether it is a private jet or a charter flight, the earliest the route application is approved is 7 pm, which is not that far in advance. And it is impossible to do it with our relationship alone. Mr. Leng, it is best not to use Zhenting's relationship unless it is necessary." Chi Ke opened the suitcase and kicked the sofa chair he was lying on. "I will tell you the first time I have news from Xu Lemian. Now get up and pack your things, sign the three contracts in your hand, and then say goodbye to SE."
“……” Leng Yunting calmed down.
He covered his face with his hands, and after a while, he looked up and said, "Chi Zhu, are you able to stay calm no matter what happens?"
Chi Ke frowned.
What are you talking about?
Get up and work.
"It would be great if you were a girl." Leng Yunting sighed, "If grandpa forces me to get married, I will definitely marry you - fuck! Are you crazy!"
Chi Ke looked at Leng Yunting who was kicked to the ground by him, and he could no longer remain calm: "If you are not joking, I will jump from the 27th floor right now and die to prove my loyalty."
Leng Yunting: “.”
The two fell into a cold war again.
To be precise, it was Leng Yunting who started the unilateral cold war.
He really wanted to teach Chi Ke a lesson and even deducted his salary, but Chi Ke now had another salary from his grandfather, so his biggest trump card was gone.
As for firing him...
Damn it, this isn’t possible. Leng Yunting really can’t do without Chi Zhu.
He could only bear this humiliation by himself. He flew for more than ten hours without saying a word to Chi Ke.
Chi Ke was not angry, nor did he take the initiative to talk to his boss. He just did his own thing and was quite calm.
Until the plane landed, a barely perceptible smile appeared in his eyes.
【White Moonlight Return Airport Pick-up Group】
【k: Are you here? 】
[The Great Gitzby: We are here~ We are at the exit on the arrival level. ]
[Rebirth: I am the only son of a wealthy family: 1]
Chi Ke looked at the group name and the two people's IDs with difficulty explaining.
Everyone knows that Su Jinmian, the eldest daughter of the Su family, is Leng Yunting's white moonlight.
And this white moonlight has now become the blind date of Leng Yunting's brother Leng Baiyao.
This was deliberately arranged by Mr. Leng.
Su Jinmian was also raised by the old man, and he knew the girl's personality and temper very well. There was no way she would fall in love with his younger brother Leng Yunting, who was a person who judged others by their noses and had not achieved any results.
But Zhenting needed the Su family as a partner, so the old man pushed Leng Baiyao out to win them over and make Leng Yunting give up at the same time.
Yesterday, he sent a message to Chi Ke asking them to change their flight, and he made sure to arrange in an "inadvertent" way for Leng Yunting to know the truth at the airport.
The greater the impact, the more heartbroken.
No one would resist such gossip.
Chi Ke couldn't do it, Ji Qian couldn't do it, and neither could Leng Baiyao, the person involved.
The three of them met on WeChat without Leng Yunting's knowledge.
"Fuck!" Leng Yunting was walking in front, but suddenly stopped and said viciously, "Why is he here? Is he here to annoy me on purpose? Why is he holding a rose? No, why is Ji Qian here too? Why is he standing with Leng Baiyao?"
Leng Yunting didn't know yet that Ji Qian and his elder brother were friends.
Chi Ke raised his head and gave Ji Qian a hint with his eyes: [Think of an excuse yourself.]
Ji Qian was stunned for a moment, then he reacted immediately. Holding his coat, he glanced straight at Leng Baiyao and strode towards him enthusiastically.
"Pick me up? I give up. Why are you so excited?" Leng Yunting was very arrogant. "He is considerate enough to come and give me clothes, but a hug is..."
The sound stopped abruptly.
Chi Ke caught Ji Qian who was flying towards him unskillfully and made a light "tsk" sound.
Why a hug again?
Well, for the sake of watching the show, I have to endure it and just act it out.
"I haven't seen you for a long time. I missed you so much." Ji Qian said excitedly with a smile on his face. "I knew you were coming back today, so I skipped work to pick you up at the airport."
"...I miss you too." Chi Ke patted Ji Qian on the back and whispered, "The drama is over. Leng Yunting's mouth is crooked because of you."
"Don't worry about him." Ji Qian whispered back, letting him go and draping his coat over his shoulders affectionately, "Wear more clothes, it's cold in China."
The seasons in the southern hemisphere are opposite to those in China. Even though I wore more clothes when I came back, I still felt chilly when I landed.
Chi Ke felt warm all over and secretly gave him a thumbs up.
They even prepared props.
He performed the whole act, which was amazing.
"Ji, Qian!" Leng Yunting gritted his teeth, "What the hell are you doing? Isn't Xu Lemian in the hospital? Why did you come to pick up Chi Zhu!?"
"He's fine. He just fainted from shock. His legs aren't broken." Ji Qian held Chi Ke's arm and said inexplicably, "Chi Zhu and I have a good relationship. What's wrong with me coming to pick him up at the airport? Leng Er, you can't be so overbearing. Why do you even want to control my personal relationship with Chi Zhu?"
Chi Ke calmly pulled out his arm, but within two seconds, he was pulled back and hugged again.
“Brother, stop making trouble,” Ji Qian pursed his lips and said vaguely, “Cooperate with me and don’t ruin my show.”
Chi Ke was a little unhappy, but considering that the man had traveled thousands of miles to deliver his coat, he had no choice but to push his glasses down and finally did not move.
"You——" Leng Yunting pointed at him, furious, "Forget it!"
He strode up to Leng Baiyao and took out his anger on his elder brother: "Brother, who are you waiting here to pick up so early in the morning? It can't be my future sister-in-law, right?"
He knew that Leng Baiyao was very averse to marriage alliances, so he deliberately called her "sister-in-law" to provoke her, hoping to see him lose his temper and embarrass himself in public.
Unexpectedly, Leng Baiyao smiled slightly and replied without anger: "Yes, brother, do you want to leave first, or stay here and wait for your future sister-in-law to come out?"
Leng Yunting: “?”
Leng Yunting stood aside with a sullen face: "Of course I want to see my sister-in-law's true appearance. Chi Zhu, come here. You are at work now, don't always stick with idle people."
He gave his personal doctor a day off while he was on a business trip, so Ji Qian will not be back to work until tomorrow.
"What the boss said implies that I understand. Don't worry, I'm a model worker and I love my job. I'll give you one day of work time." Ji Qian started working quite consciously. He stuck to Chi Ke and stood behind them, watching the show in silence.
No one paid attention to them. Chi Ke pushed the head off his shoulder and said, "It's hot."
Ji Qian smiled, but didn't push any further. He took the opportunity to distance himself a little and started chatting: "Have you ever been bullied on a business trip?"
Chi Ke was surprised: "I was bullied?"
His drooping eyelids perked up, obviously thinking the question was a little ridiculous.
Ji Qian laughed: "That's true, are you tired?"
"I'm fine. How about you?" Chi Ke asked politely.
In fact, I am concerned and worried, but for some reason, I don’t want to appear too intimate.
"I'm fine too. At the hospital..." Ji Qian paused, searching for the right words, "everything is going well."
The two of them chatted idly, seemingly close to each other, but in fact the content of the chat was meaningless.
Ji Qian looked at the ground, with Chi Ke in his peripheral vision.
Chi Ke just turned a blind eye and watched the cars coming and going outside.
One doesn't dare to ask more questions, and the other doesn't want to answer more questions.
The balance is so delicately maintained.
After a while, they stopped talking.
Leng Baiyao couldn't help but glance back.
He wants to eat both the melons in front and behind.
As soon as he looked back, Leng Yunting, who was always paying attention to his movements, thought there was a conspiracy and looked back as well.
Ji Qian looked up: "?"
Chi Ke looked back: "?"
What are you doing?
The four faces looked at each other.
For a moment, the atmosphere was a little awkward.
"Excuse me for interrupting you."
A female voice that sounded very expensive came from the side, breaking the silence.
The four of them turned their heads to look at the same time.
Chi Ke raised his eyebrows.
Ji Qian raised the corners of his lips as if he was enjoying a good show.
Leng Baiyao's eyes were full of amazement.
Leng Yunting...
Leng Yunting's lips were trembling with shock.
Being stared at by several completely different gazes, Su Jinmian's movement of taking off his sunglasses was so slight that it froze for half a second.
Wow.
What a grand ceremony.
If these four didn't look like bandits and two of them were ridiculously handsome, she really suspected that she would be knocked unconscious and robbed and taken to the black market to sell her organs in the next second.
Su Jinmian had a strong psychological quality and managed to get himself in shape. He hung his sunglasses on his collar and curved his eyes into a professional smile.
"The plane is delayed for half an hour. Sorry to have kept you waiting."
Her eyes wandered over the four people, and she asked excitedly, "Who is my half a million?"
