Chapter 68 Chapter 68 "I can't watch?"...
When the plane landed, it was raining heavily in City G.
This rain will last longer than in S City and will continue for the next week.
As soon as they got out of the station, they headed straight to the venue to meet the organizers.
After dinner, Chi Ke returned to the hotel with almost no strength in his legs.
G City is not as cold as S City, but it is almost November after all. The heavy rain accompanied by thunder and lightning temporarily lowered the temperature, and the wind made me feel chilly on my body.
He lay on the bed for a while, then slowly moved to the bathroom with his bathrobe, took a quick shower and filled the bathtub with hot water.
While waiting, he sat on the edge of the bathtub and replied to a string of unread messages on his list.
[Refusing to Marry a Rich Woman (Failed Escape Version): You really can’t imagine how lively G City is now. ]
[Refusing to Marry a Rich Woman (Failed Escape Version): In addition to Xu Lemian, Leng Er and you, there are also Ji Song, Sima Yichen, and my two brothers. It's exciting! ]
It's not surprising that Ji Song appears here.
There have been many exhibitions and events in G City recently. The Ji family's business relies on a lot of marketing, and they value fame and publicity more than Leng Chengye does. They will not miss any opportunity to show up and promote themselves.
【k: Got it, thank you. 】
【ByteBite: Please let me know if you need any help. 】
【k: Thank you for your kindness. 】
【Chi Yuanfan: Brother, take a look at the hand-written newspaper I drew today. 】
【k: Looks good, really great. 】
[Rebirth: I am the only son of a wealthy family: Can I walk after a bone fracture? ]
[Rebirth: I am the only son of a wealthy family: Sorry, I sent it to the wrong person. I wanted to send it to Ji Qian, but two minutes have passed and I can’t withdraw it.]
Although it was sent to the wrong person, Chi Ke gave a symbolic reply out of humanitarian concern.
【k: It’s best not to do this. If the healing is not done well, there will be sequelae. 】
[The Great Gitzby: It's raining heavily in G City. The calf heating sleeve and waist belt are in your suitcase. You must bring them.]
[The Great Gitzby: Come to the hotel and let me know you're safe.]
[The Great Gitzby: Love you husband, keep working hard! ]
Chi Ke leaned on the platform at the edge of the bathtub and took a photo of the hotel.
【k: At the hotel. 】
It took a while for the other side to reply.
[The Great Gitzby: Are you taking a bath? ]
【K: No, I don’t use the bathtub outside. 】
He would not share such personal items with others. The bathtub in the hotel had been used by countless people, and Chi Ke would definitely not use it to take a bath.
My calves are really painful now. I have no choice but to soak them in hot water to relieve the pain.
[The Great Gitzby] didn't reply again.
Chi Ke waited for a while but received no news, which made him feel puzzled.
【k: At home? Alone? Busy? 】
[The Great Gitzby: Yes, yes, of course it’s just me, I’m not busy. ]
Chi Ke made a video call directly.
Unexpectedly, Ji Qian hung up on him and sent him a voice message.
Chi Ke pressed the answer button in surprise: "Is your camera broken?"
There was silence for a moment, and then he said, "No, it's just... it's not very convenient."
Ji Qian's voice was a little low, with a heavy nasal tone, and his breathing was not as smooth as usual.
Chi Ke's eyebrows slowly gathered together: "Are you sick?"
This shouldn't be the case. When I left this morning, he was still full of energy.
Ji Qian suddenly became very frugal with words: "No."
"..." Chi Ke paused, "Ji Qian, what are you doing?"
"...Husband." Ji Qian gritted his teeth, "Don't you even take a look at what you took before sending me the pictures?"
Um?
Chi Ke clicked on the picture without knowing why, looked at it carefully, and his expression suddenly became subtle.
The mirror in the bathroom of this room is so large that it almost takes up an entire wall, and the bathtub is right next to it.
When taking pictures from this angle, the camera will inevitably scan the mirror.
He didn't notice that half of the photo included himself.
From the shoulders to the thighs, it's quite clear.
"It wasn't intentional." Chi Ke explained, and then excused himself, "It's not like I'm not wearing any clothes."
"You..." Ji Qian seemed to be amused, "Is there any difference between wearing nothing?"
Although she was wearing a bathrobe, the neckline was open to the belt level, and the loose belt was not properly tied around the waist. It was hung by the hips to prevent it from falling. Because of the sitting posture, the slit of the hem slid along the knees, directly exposing the thigh roots.
The visual impact was strong enough that his mind was filled with fragmented images of what happened that night all day long, and he reacted almost the moment the pictures were loaded.
Chi Ke touched his nose: "So you are now..."
Ji Qian didn't say anything, but it was obvious that his breathing had become rapid.
Chi Ke heard it clearly, and asked in confusion: "Why is it inconvenient to video chat with me?"
Ji Qian: “.”
Ji Qian felt that there was something wrong with his ears: "Is this convenient?"
"Is it inconvenient?" Chi Ke's doubts were greater than his, "I can't watch?"
"That's not the case... No, isn't that how the question is asked?" Ji Qian was almost led astray by his logic.
Chi Ke didn't care, ignoring the process and talking about the result: "You put me on video."
Ji Qian tried to reason: “I didn’t mean that, I just…”
Chi Ke: "You hung up my video."
Ji Qian: “…”
"It's my fault." Ji Qian gave up on himself, "How should I make amends?"
Chi Ke didn't say anything, and his breathing was so light that no one else could hear it.
At this time, the sudden silence of the environment is very fatal.
Ji Qian’s heartbeat was trembling uncomfortably: “Husband?”
"Don't stop," Chi Ke chuckled, "Keep going, I'm keeping track of the time for you."
"...What time?" Ji Qian had a bad feeling.
"I don't know. I haven't thought about it for a long time." Chi Ke said casually, "Anyway, just continue. I will tell you five minutes in advance when the time comes."
Ji Qian was a little desperate.
If Chi Ke had given a clear deadline, he wouldn't have been so panicked even if it took a long time. Now he can't even be on time, which is a double torture both physically and mentally.
"Ji Qian." Chi Ke suddenly called.
Ji Qian responded after a while: "...Yes."
Chi Ke asked: "Besides this time, has it happened before since you got together?"
Ji Qian answered honestly: "Yes."
Chi Ke: “How many times?”
Ji Qian: “I don’t remember…many times.”
Chi Ke smiled for a while in a good mood and said with emotion: "You are quite patient."
"I'm not... afraid of you and don't like you?" Ji Qian said aggrievedly, "You rarely do these things, right?"
"It's not that I don't want to, it's just that my self-control is a little better than yours, and I don't like to satisfy my physiological needs by myself, so I usually don't use my hands." Chi Ke softened his heart every time he heard him being wronged, and still coaxed him, "Many times after kissing, I took a cold shower."
In summer, when the temperature is high, taking a cold shower is very effective in preventing you from catching a cold or getting sick.
But not being easily sick does not mean that you will never get sick.
Ji Qian didn’t know whether to be angry or thankful, and asked in a rough voice: “What about now?”
Chi Ke sighed, "I told you I don't have any functional impairment."
"No showers allowed." Ji Qian warned immediately.
"I know. I don't plan to care about it." Chi Ke was very busy. He had to prepare for the transportation of tomorrow's exhibits. When the water temperature cooled down, he wiped it clean and went to the bedroom. "I'll turn on the computer to make a table. If it doesn't affect my work, what do you want?"
"You turn on the camera." Ji Qian said, and then added, "One-way."
Chi Ke raised his eyebrows: "Oh... one-way, how do I open it?"
"Don't pretend." Ji Qian sneered, "Don't think I don't know what you were planning."
"Tsk." Chi Ke said, "Aren't you quite innocent?"
How did you guess that?
"I have a brain with normal IQ and EQ." Chunqing is not an idiot. At this point, Ji Qian doesn't know what he wants. The first 28 years of his life have been wasted.
He couldn't help but urge: "Husband, hurry up."
"One-way is fine," Chi Ke likes to bargain when negotiating business, "but I have to decide where to shoot."
"Okay, okay, hurry up..." Now it feels comfortable to let Ji Qian see the corner of his clothes.
Chi Ke found a cell phone holder and aimed it at the hand that was typing on the keyboard.
Ji Qian couldn't believe it: "Really want to work?"
"Do you think I'm kidding you?" Chi Ke was extremely busy and had no time at all for dating, but he just never showed this busyness.
Although the process is tiring, it is a happy time to spend. This is his own arrangement and choice. He does not want his partner to let guilt and heartache affect this precious time. It is enough to accept it happily.
However, Ji Qian was very perceptive and could sense his condition. He tacitly chose not to say anything. Even when he was very tired, he never made a fuss. He just chatted with him and drank tea, which was quite comforting.
From the tone of his voice, Ji Qian knew that this person was not so busy that he had to work right now.
He was very curious about what tricks this man was going to play.
At first, Ji Qian didn't take it seriously.
Isn't it just typing on the keyboard? What can you do with it?
Until he saw Chi Ke calmly apply hand cream and wrap a black anti-tendinitis wrist guard tightly around his right hand, which was glowing white in the night.
After typing on the keyboard for a while, the veins on the back of his unrestrained left hand were visibly exposed, and his right hand, which was wrapped in a wrist guard, looked more rosy due to the exercise. His red fingertips were placed on the laptop touchpad, and he slid his ring finger and middle finger back and forth to control the mouse.
Ji Qian: “…”
Ji Qian: “Fuck!”
Her husband really knows how to have fun.
…
The next day, everyone had their own things to do.
Chi Ke went to the exhibition hall alone to sign contracts in the morning, and then met Leng Yunting for lunch at noon.
There is only one benefit of having dinner with Leng Yunting.
This boss eats everything.
Although he seems to be picky about food, he is actually not as picky as Chi Ke, who cannot eat a single bite. If you force him to eat, he will finish it all.
Xu Lemian had asked curiously before, and Leng Yunting replied expressionlessly: "In the first two years after returning to the Leng family, I could only eat leftovers."
I ate so much tofu that I ended up hating it.
Chi Ke was listening nearby, feeling nothing at all.
In the original novel, Leng Yunting never told anyone except Xu Lemian the reason why he didn't like to eat tofu. When the original owner asked him about his dietary taboos, he said that his original supervisor ate too much.
Once when he went out to visit the crew, he said that the original owner just needed to eat something casually at noon. As a result, the original owner bought a lunch box with mapo tofu, which he impatiently threw into the trash can and deducted a week's salary.
At that time, he was confused and thought that the boss had a bad temper. Now that he knows the truth, Chi Ke just thinks it is a bit ridiculous.
His past was not caused by the original owner, and others are not the worms in his stomach. He himself is unwilling to tell the original owner what to avoid, so how can he expect the original owner to guess?
Chi Ke was not as good-tempered as the original owner, so he just handed the menu to him and let him order by himself.
Leng Yunting was reluctant.
Whenever he goes out, his life assistant arranges what he eats.
"The food in this restaurant looks unappetizing." Leng Yunting wondered, "The environment is also average. Which restaurant did you book?"
Chi Ke arranged his itinerary, including but not limited to where to have breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Chi Ke said calmly: "It should taste good."
Leng Yunting: "Really?"
No.
This app has a 3.4 rating on reviews.
But he chose this restaurant not just for the meal.
Time passed by minute by minute, and it was time for handover at the restaurant front desk.
Half an hour later, the door was opened with a loud noise, enough to show the haste and urgency of the visitor.
"Sorry, sorry! I'm late!"
A familiar voice mixed with apologetic crying.
They both put down their chopsticks at the same time and looked sideways.
Chi Ke looked at Leng Yunting's shocked eyes with interest. When he couldn't help but stand up and go over to recognize him, he tapped the table with his fingers: "Sorry, Mr. Leng, I didn't expect him to work here."
Leng Yunting's eyes were filled with astonishment: "Coincidence? You——"
"Fortunately, President Leng said that this kind of thing will not affect our work. We have to go to a meeting in half an hour." Chi Ke breathed a sigh of relief. "You won't... President Leng? You won't?"
"..." Leng Yunting closed his eyes, clenched his hands into fists, and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't worry, it won't happen."
Chi Ke raised the corners of his lips: "That's good."
