Chapter 5 Chapter 5 We are just "chance acquaintances". ...
As the morning light faded, Chi Ke finally completed all the tasks assigned by the unscrupulous entrepreneur.
There were less than two hours left before the two living ancestors arrived, and he had no time to go home, so he simply went into the security room at the door and borrowed the security guard's recliner to catch up on his sleep.
To be honest, after staying up this late, I feel so exhausted that I don’t feel sleepy at all.
But when he sent the amusement park manager to the car, he clearly noticed that his heart was beating a little fast. In order to prevent himself from dying from overwork again, he had to force himself to take a nap.
The security guard was on night shift and couldn't help but feel sympathy for the man when he saw him busy all night. Seeing him huddled in the chair, he kindly turned on the air conditioner and heated the room.
The minute and second hands rotate silently without stopping.
At exactly seven in the morning, the alarm clock rang and the autumn rain fell on time.
Chi Ke opened his eyes and saw the foggy glass. He changed his position and lay on the table. He yawned sleepily, buried his face in his arms, and rubbed it unhappily.
So warm and comfortable.
I really don't want to go to work.
"This year's rain has been on and off for a week, but it's finally coming to an end," said the security guard who was drinking tea nearby. "It will be completely sunny tomorrow."
Chi Ke turned his head and his usually cool and calm voice sounded overly lazy and casual because he was still sleepy: "How long will it be sunny this time?"
"The temperature has risen to 4-5 degrees. The weather forecast says it will be sunny for the next 14 days." The security guard's son is about the same age as him. At this moment, his eyes are like those of an elder who cares about his child. "But the temperature difference between day and night is big. You can't wear so little. You are so young. You can't deal with doctors every day, right?"
When it comes to doctor, a handsome face immediately comes to Chi Ke's mind.
Regardless of his personal impression, he had to admit that Ji Qian was very handsome, the kind of handsome that was very memorable.
Anyone who has seen that face will inevitably have an impression of it.
Chi Ke sat up straight, looked at the wrinkled band-aids on his fingers, and said, "You're right. I'll go buy some apples after get off work."
The security guard didn't respond: "Why are you buying apples?"
"An apple a day keeps the doctor away." Chi Ke curled his eyes and sneered. He waited for his sore and numb calves to regain feeling, then stood up and stretched. "It's time to go to work. Thank you uncle for taking me in for a few hours."
…
Chi Ke first went to the bathroom to get some disposable items to wash up, then went to confirm the readiness of the float performers, and finally returned to the entrance of the park with dark circles under his eyes, waiting for good news from his boss.
The amusement park is doing very good business. At this time on weekdays, tourists are already queuing at the entrance waiting for it to open, rain or shine.
The current deserted and desolate scene is all thanks to the capitalists.
Because of Leng Yunting's spur of the moment idea, those tourists who bought tickets for today's tour almost made their trip in vain.
Secretary Sun originally wanted to refund the tickets for those people directly, but Chi Ke made a schedule and found that they could return home at 11 o'clock at the latest, which would not affect the subsequent operations of the amusement park.
So after twenty minutes of negotiation, they decided that Mr. Leng would pay for all the tourist tickets booked that day, and announced to the public that some parts of the park had not been completed for maintenance and would be opened later at noon.
This would avoid damaging the organizer's reputation, and booking the venue for the morning would also reduce expenses. All in all, the expenses were actually tens of thousands cheaper than the budget approved by Leng Yunting.
Chi Ke looked at the remaining hundreds of thousands of yuan, silently recited the relevant laws and regulations three times, and silently repeated "I am a good citizen" ten times. Relying on the strong core socialist values, he suppressed the desire to put the money into his own pocket.
"Chi Zhu, I really envy you for staying up all night and still looking so bright and beautiful." Secretary Sun looked at him enviously, "Your clothes are not wrinkled at all, did you really not sleep at all?"
Upon hearing this, Chi Ke glanced sideways and confirmed the man's identity by the logo on the suit on his chest.
After one night, Secretary Sun in a suit had disappeared without a trace. The person standing in front of him now could only be called Secretary Sun in a suit.
I don’t know how I slept, my clothes are all wrinkled.
Chi Ke sleeps quietly and honestly. Once he takes off his coat, the clothes underneath won't be too twisted.
He omitted the complicated procedures and said simply: "Take off your clothes and sleep."
Secretary Sun: “?”
Secretary Sun's voice split: "Sleeping naked?!"
Chi Ke: “.”
Chi Ke curled his lips and said, "Yes, I took off all my clothes and slept on the street."
Secretary Sun frowned: "Chi Zhu, are you kidding me?"
Chi Ke smiled wryly: "How else can you really sleep naked?"
Secretary Sun said "Oh" dryly: "That's true."
If anyone else said this, Secretary Sun would definitely not believe it.
But when Chi Zhu jokes, he looks very serious and expressionless, which is very intimidating. Even if he says that he has come back to life, others will doubt science and technology.
After realizing what was happening, Secretary Sun laughed out loud: "Chi Zhu, you are really humorous!"
Chi Ke doesn't think he is very humorous.
He is usually polite and taciturn, and only when he is very tired will he speak with a bit of unconscious energy.
Taking into account his previous life's routine, Chi Ke hasn't had a good night's sleep for two weeks in a row.
He forced himself to regain his composure, gently dodged the other person's arm, and left from under the eaves with an umbrella: "Let's get to work."
Sun Mi followed the voice and looked——
The low-key black Maybach arrived as expected, accompanied by an escort car in front and behind.
As soon as the three cars stopped, a bunch of private bodyguards got out of the escort cars in front and behind. The two tallest and strongest men among them held umbrellas in one hand and opened the back door of the Maybach on the left and right. Although they didn't say anything, the words "Welcome Mr. Leng" were written all over their faces.
The first person to get off the car was Mr. Leng.
Leng Yunting changed into a gray slim-fit suit as an inner layer of his tweed coat today. He was still as handsome as ever. After getting off the car, he stood looking straight ahead for a while and touched the non-existent wrinkles on his collar.
Chi Ke didn't guess his intention and initially judged that the other party was posing.
The next person to get off the bus was Xu.
However, it was only the end of October, and Xu Lemian had already changed into cotton clothes. Her delicate little face was tucked into the high-necked sweater, which made me feel sorry for her.
According to the setting and the situation, the protagonist should have a "broken feeling" at this moment, but Chi Ke looked at him for a long time and couldn't find where he was broken.
Just like Jasmine that was moved out of the greenhouse for some fresh air.
It seems that Leng Yunting really took good care of Xu Lemian when he was pursuing her in the early stages.
The last person to get off was...
Um?
Chi Ke's eyelashes twitched a few times, and he looked at Ji Qian in disbelief as he got out of the passenger seat.
Why is the doctor here?
Ji Qian changed from last night's shabby appearance and changed his clothes from head to toe.
His hair was neat and tidy, he wore black jeans with high-top sneakers, and a delicate white ceramic Phalaenopsis brooch on his light grey jacket, looking like a college student who had just graduated.
"Chizhu," he held up a transparent umbrella that didn't fit in with the shirts, suits and black umbrellas around him, and walked against the flow of people towards Chi Ke, "Good morning."
Chi Ke felt a little fresh after hearing the same person say "good morning" and "good night" within eight hours.
"Good morning." He nodded and greeted, "Why is Doctor Ji here?"
Ji Qian blinked: "I..."
"Mianmian had a cough this morning, so I called him and he said he had nothing to do anyway, so he came along." Leng Yunting stood not far away and called out to them, "Assistant Chi, pay Doctor Ji the money for this morning's visit."
Chi Ke understood.
He didn't take a good Sunday to rest, but stayed up all night and volunteered to work overtime. It turned out that he was worried about Xu Lemian.
Can't spray.
To do this is true love.
Unfortunately, the protagonist is destined to be the protagonist's attacker.
The BGM of "The Guest" rang in Chi Ke's mind. He looked at Ji Qian with pity and turned away.
Ji Qian: “?”
Why are you looking at me like that?
Was there a hint of deep affection and friendship in that glance?
Could it be that he feels sorry for me out of humanitarianism because he sees me working for more than 30 hours in a row?
The more Ji Qian thought about it, the more likely it seemed. He felt happy and thought that this person was quite kind.
He trotted after her, wanting to whisper something in her ear, but due to the two large umbrellas, he couldn't get close, so he had to lower his voice and said, "Actually, I'm not doing this for Xu Lemian."
Leng Yunting, who was five steps ahead of them, turned around suddenly and asked, "What did you say?"
Ji Qian: “…I didn’t say anything.”
Ji Qian kept winking at Chi Ke: [Hurry up and hold an umbrella with me to sneak up on the cricket boss! ]
Chi Ke: “?”
Chi Ke heard that sentence, but didn't understand what he meant by the wink.
Ji Qian frowned but got no response, so he sighed helplessly and whispered to himself, "Forget it, tacit understanding is cultivated through getting along with each other, and we will have it in the future."
"What did you say?" This time it was Chi Ke who asked.
"I say," Ji Qian pointed at his big black umbrella, "how about we share one?"
He always speaks his mind and never wastes time on internal issues.
Chi Ke finally understood what the other party meant and felt a little helpless.
The boss was right in front of us, and we just had the guts to say bad things loudly. Are you trying to kill yourself?
After hesitating for a moment, he nodded: "Come over."
Normally, he would never share an umbrella with someone else. It would be disgusting to get so close.
But the umbrellas distributed by Zhenting Group were so large that two grown men walking side by side couldn’t touch each other. Besides, the question was so direct that refusing would seem a bit rude and would make the atmosphere awkward.
He doesn't try to make friends with others, nor does he want to make enemies with others.
Ji Qian grinned, folded his umbrella quickly and came in. The two of them walked slowly behind the boss.
"I'm telling you, this morning was really toxic." He covered his mouth and complained, "The anxious tone of his voice on the phone, I really thought something had happened. I had already changed my clothes, and he suddenly asked Xu Lemian to cough for me... I'm not exaggerating. I coughed more severely when I had an omelette stuck in my throat."
Chi Ke curled his lips and said indifferently, "Boss Leng is too concerned and confused."
Ji Qian's status in Leng Yunting's eyes is different from his. Ji Qian is a friend and subordinate, so of course he can complain appropriately. By saying these things to him, he is also making sure that he will not dare to complain.
If a small special assistant stabbed Leng Yunting in the back and made a complaint, even if he had fallen out with Leng Yunting, the second young master of the Ji family would have plenty of ways to deal with him.
As for this person's attitude towards Xu Lemian, Chi Ke had no way of finding out and could only attribute it to the fact that at this stage, the doctor had not yet fallen deeply in love with the protagonist.
But it’s probably not far from that time.
He has seen many love-brained people, so he will not respond foolishly now.
What if the person who loves you to death turns around and remembers the bad things you said to him and starts to take revenge on him?
Chi Ke has been in the workplace for so long, and he has always been careful and cautious.
His career must not be ruined by a love-minded person.
"Haha." Ji Qian had no idea about his psychological activities and sneered, "He only cares about us, but we are the ones who are in chaos."
Chi Ke pursed his lips and asked evasively: "Since Doctor Ji is not here for the patient, then why?"
Ji Qian suddenly got stuck.
After a while, she lowered her eyes to look at him: "Do you want to tell the truth? It may be a bit presumptuous."
"Hmm?" Chi Ke raised his head slightly.
His height is 183 cm. The doctor is taller than him, estimated to be nearly 1.9 meters tall.
Doctors have to keep their heads down during surgery. Being so tall, it should be easy for him to get spinal diseases, right?
Chi Ke touched his neck as if he felt the same way.
Poor social animal.
"Although you worked overtime all night, given Leng Yunting's personality, I don't think he would let you go back to rest this morning." When Ji Qian's eyes glanced over, he raised his head and looked forward, and said softly, "I've been through too much and can't sleep. Instead of lying in bed and looking at the ceiling, I might as well come to find you."
“…”
What kind of development is this?
The chat content is a bit off topic.
Chi Ke regretted sharing an umbrella with him. After a moment of silence, he said in a cold voice: "Doctor Ji, we don't seem to be familiar with each other."
"Look, I'll tell you the truth. It's a bit frivolous and frivolous." Ji Qian helplessly spread his hands, "But I'm different from Leng Yunting. I'm a straight man. Don't worry, don't misunderstand. It's just a little... Chi Zhu, do you know the feeling of 'hit it at first sight'?"
The topic seemed to bring them closer together instantly.
It's so close that I feel a little nervous.
Chi Ke subconsciously resisted the conversation with the stranger, knowing nothing about him. His words were thorny: "Aren't you a doctor?"
Ji Qian noticed from the corner of his eye that he was not looking at him, so he lowered his head and asked, “What’s the matter?”
"Aren't doctors supposed to be atheists who believe in science above all else?" Chi Ke sneered, "Do you still believe in fate?"
"Well," Ji Qian smiled, "I didn't believe it before, but then something happened. Now I feel like everything I do is a bit..."
"Um?"
"It's fate."
“…”
The black cloud in the sky suddenly dispersed, and Chi Ke was dazzled by the sudden setting sunlight and had to stop.
Sunrise often happens in an instant.
It happened so suddenly that Ji Qian didn't react. He took a few more steps, and when he was exposed to the sun, he quickly retreated to his side.
Chi Ke put away his umbrella: "The rain has stopped."
Ji Qian unexpectedly stretched out his hand and indeed failed to catch the raindrops.
"Chi Zhu!" Leng Yunting shouted from a distance, "The sun is out, go get a parasol, Mianmian's skin is going to get sunburned."
Ji Qian's mouth twitched: "This person..."
"Doctor Ji, materialism is a great philosophical concept." Before leaving, Chi Ke interrupted, "'At first sight' is mostly an illusion. We are just 'chance encounters.'"
Ji Qian stood there for a while, looked at his back, and suddenly smiled.
"That's fate."
