Chapter 43 Why should I let you erase the things you did to me? Erase the things you did to me!
Lihua Wine Shop
The pear blossom wine cultural meeting that the Shi sisters mentioned was only held in the backyard of her house, and few people came to visit.
Every time they hold such a pear blossom wine cultural meeting, the Shi family will provide free pear blossom wine in order to promote the culture of pear blossom wine, but the effect is always much ado about nothing.
Most of the people attracted by this are here to take advantage of the family, which would have been fine before the Shi family fell into decline.
But the Shi family had fallen on hard times, so they wanted to drink free pear blossom wine, so they told a story about pear blossoms.
Shi Xiaomei thought Yi Jiu couldn't say it, so she said, "Sister Jiu, I can take you in."
Yi Jiu thought for a moment, "The Tang Dynasty poet Cen Shen once wrote "Song of White Snow to Send Off Judge Wu on His Return to the Capital." Suddenly, a spring breeze came overnight, and thousands of pear trees blossomed. This poem was written by Cen Shen to his friend who was returning to the capital, and at the same time, he missed his life in the capital when he was young."
Shi Ling nodded, and she let Yi Jiu into the backyard.
She began to introduce Yijiu to the production process of pear blossom wine. There was an old-fashioned wine-making base in the backyard, and everything was done by hand rather than with integrated industrial machines.
Yi Jiu asked: "Why not use industrial machines?"
"My dad is more traditional. He says that hand-brewed coffee is more meaningful and emotional. Machines lack emotion."
After Shi Ling finished speaking, she turned around and took out a pot of brewed pear blossom wine from the room and placed it on the table in the backyard. She poured a bowl for Yi Jiu, who took a small sip. It tasted sweet and pure. "Ms. Shi, have you thought about how to develop your pear blossom wine?"
"I've thought about it." Shi Ling took a sip and looked up at the sky casually. The sky in South City was very clean, dotted with stars. "Self-media is very popular, and I want to be a self-media blogger. Generally, only self-media bloggers who sign contracts can get a lot of traffic in a short period of time. But I have to be tied to an agency, and I don't know what the IP of Lihua Wine will be like?"
"so."
"I applied for the directing department. I want to make a documentary about pear blossom wine. I will release it on my social media platform. If it succeeds, it will be great. If not, it will be a pity."
"You are the top student in the Directing Department of Peking University, and your teacher, Director Li, has high praise for you."
"Being number one is useless." Shi Ling smiled softly. She was unwilling to accept this and wanted to save her own business. "With no connections or family background, am I overestimating my own abilities?"
"No, this is not a regret, nor is it overestimating one's own abilities. This is a counterattack against the injustice of our fate." Yi Jiu felt dizzy after drinking a few sips of pear blossom wine. She really couldn't drink too much. She rubbed her temples. She created the entertainment industry on her own, but she didn't let her family help her. She played a supporting role, was a passerby, and even a lying corpse. In the end, Director Li recognized her. "We should have the spirit to fight. Success is called a dream, and failure is called regret. Regrets can be made back."
Speaking of making a comeback, she inexplicably thought of He Jingxin.
She made a decision, she and her have no regrets. So there is no talk of a comeback. Just treat it as a passing moment.
"For that sentence, regret can come back. Take a sip." Shi Ling had met someone who supported her dream, but she was also curious about Yi Jiu, who was about the same age as her. He had always hidden his emotions and was a complex and rational person. "Jiu, you have a very deep understanding of regret."
"I guess so!" Yi Jiu nodded, and Shi Ling propped up his chin, "Is that the person you like?"
"Ms. Shi Ling, can I be the protagonist of your documentary?"
"ah?"
"I am Yi Jiu, the Yi Jiu you all know."
......
New Year's Day 2025
"Meituan sent medicine, please check it."
"Thank you."
Yi Jiu was awakened by the sound of a Meituan guy and a door closing. She protested angrily and pounded on the bed. She then rolled around on the bed. She buried her face in the pillow and felt something under her body, like a bulge.
Yi Jiu opened her eyes and picked up a piece of clothing from under her body. She sniffed it and found that it was newly bought. The style and color were what she liked, but it was not her clothing. But... why was there a hole in it?
She remembered that it rained heavily last night, so she had no choice but to ride in He Jingxin's car back home.
She woke up instantly. She knelt on the bed and sniffed her pillow and the sheets. She was 100% sure that nothing happened last night.
She breathed a sigh of relief, and the aroma of breakfast filled her nose.
She walked out in her slippers, and all the garbage in the living room had been packed up and taken out. He Jingxin was sitting on the sofa, holding a laptop in her hand, handling company affairs.
"This is one of the main projects we are going to do this year. I have already discussed it last night. Thank you all for your help, directors. The meeting is adjourned." He Jingxin said and left the cloud meeting.
The calm and cool Mr. He is back.
He Jingxin raised her silver-rimmed glasses with her middle finger. She looked up at her. She had long and thick eyelashes, lively eyes, and a soft face. She was quite cute.
It was just a moment, and she quickly looked away, her hands still clicking on the keyboard, working at full speed.
He Jingxin pointed to the breakfast on the table and said, "This is breakfast for you: bread, milk, and eggs."
The cold and sinister voice came back again. Did she travel through time or was she reborn?
This made Yi Jiu pinch her face, it hurt a little, so she wasn't dreaming. Crazy, hurt, heartbroken, sad and crying, these scenes flashed through her mind.
Yi Jiu chewed the bread, and she felt comfortable listening to the sound, not like she was under a love spell. She breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she felt a little irritated.
While eating, Yi Jiu looked at He Jingxin out of the corner of his eye. How many times had she come to him to get back together?
This is probably the fifth time. Let’s send this ancestor away as soon as possible.
What if they have a big trick up their sleeve?
"Mr. He, do you know? It's very dangerous for an Omega to spend the night with an adult alpha." After Yi Jiu finished a sip of milk, she started to order him to leave.
He Jingxin's finger lingered on the space bar on the keyboard as he replied to the last message, "Yi Jiu, has anyone ever told you that you are narcissistic?"
"......Ah...Is it true?" Yi Jiu was stunned by the sudden sentence. She turned around in disbelief and stared at He Jingxin's face in shock.
This "ah" expressed her surprise at He Jingxin's reaction.
And is it true or not, He Jingxin was actually confronting her. She wanted to ask if she had met the real or fake He Jingxin?
Following this drawn-out "ah", He Jingxin typed several lines of "."
Is this true or false?
She is not narcissistic, and she has no idea what's going on.
She calmed down. She didn't know whether this move against Yi Jiu was right or wrong. Would she hate herself even more?
Very obvious!
Yi Jiu's eccentric personality doesn't seem like he would force his way into something.
She looked for her again and again, apologized to her, and asked her if they could start over. But she refused again and again, which showed that forcing it would not work and she had to find another way.
He Jingxin glanced at Yi Jiu with the back of her eyes. She put her notebook on the table and crossed her legs, as if she had returned home and was relaxed and at ease. She asked again in her soul, "Aren't you?"
She raised her lips, her rosy lips full of temptation, as if responding to Yi Jiu's self-righteousness. There was a mysterious light in her black eyes, and she looked at Yi Jiu without hesitation, like a seductive and cunning fox, she could see into someone's heart.
She sighed softly and crossed her hands on her belly, more relaxed than Yi Jiu. "The moment you saw me, were you thinking that He Jingxin was looking for me to get back together again?"
Isn't it?
He Jingxin waited for this monologue in her heart to finish, and then she perfectly followed it up by saying, "If this is not narcissism, then what is it?"
Judging from her tone, she really isn't here to get back together with her?
That’s good!
"That's not narcissism." Yi Jiu snorted coldly, walked slowly to the opposite side of He Jingxin, looked her up and down, and a desire to win rose in her heart.
Since she has suppressed me verbally, I must not lose in terms of momentum.
Yi Jiu had seen enough, so he sat on the sofa opposite her and told her about her past. She smiled without any emotion: "Mr. He, you have come to me four times in total, and there was nothing else except getting back together. Things never happen more than three times, and you have already been there four times, so it is normal for me to think that way."
"That's really unfortunate." After saying that, He Jingxin supported her neck. She had been curled up on the sofa all night and felt really uncomfortable. Her neck and waist were sore. "I'm sorry that my performance disappointed you."
"Don't play hard to get with me." Yi Jiu was ridiculed by He Jingxin early in the morning. She could only glare at her, "Do you really have something to talk to me about?"
"Mr. Yi, I came to see you for something serious. But..." He Jingxin left the word "but" on the topic... She stood up gracefully, and as she passed by Yi Jiu, her long skirt accidentally brushed against Yi Jiu's elbow, causing a tingling sensation.
She intentionally soaked her long skirt with baby's breath pheromones. Through the thin gauze, the friction generated electricity. Would the pheromones, which were highly compatible with her, give rise to a current of love?
Yi Jiu's eyes followed her. Her dark brown hair with slightly curled ends was like a feather gently falling on her calm heart. She happened to touch a V-neck sweater with a rose embroidered on it. The triangular neckline magnified her delicate collarbone, which was vaguely visible.
She shook her head quickly. He Jingxin's hairstyle had changed, and her fashion sense had also changed. She had the same aesthetic as hers.
He Jingxin's clothing style is cool and restrained, yet both restrained and cool. Her style is sunny and bold, and she prefers new styles and is unconventional. She has a perfect frame, so top brands like to look for her.
Who could tell her why she was wearing her V-neck sweater?
She still has a lot of privacy, she can keep He Jingxin at home, out of courtesy and because of the heavy rain last night. However, she will not let He Jingxin wear her clothes.
He Jingxin was slowly boiling water in the kitchen. Yi Jiu was lying on the sofa, listening to the sound of water bubbling in the stove, and her heart was beating fast.
But this word is so painful
It was like a roller coaster stuck halfway up a hill, unbearable and tense. She knew He Jingxin, and when she said she was talking about serious matters, she really meant serious matters, and it was definitely not personal matters.
Why is my clothes on her? She is looking for my clothes but what is it?
Her cell phone beeps.
Shi Ling: Teacher Yi Jiu, you are really a blessing to our family. Last night, an investor found me. She said she was willing to invest 20 million yuan in the early stage, and would make additional investments if possible.
Yi Jiu: That’s great! That investor has a keen eye for talent.
Shi Ling: Teacher Yi Jiu, I know I checked and found that you have never made a documentary. This is your first show, and you are willing to help for free, but I think it is unfair to you.
Yi Jiu: Pear Blossom Wine is an intangible cultural heritage, and I am willing to do my best to pass it on.
Shi Ling: Thank you for your support. My pear blossom wine will sell well in the future. I am willing to let you buy a 10% stake, and then pay you a 10% dividend every year. I hope you will not refuse.
“Ding Dong!”
An email was sent to He Jingxin's laptop.
He Jingxin gracefully took the kettle back to the sofa and poured herself a cup of hot water. She returned to the sofa and blew the hot air, which dyed her fair wrists red.
"Where were we talking about just now?"
You know the answer but still ask!
Yi Jiu couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart, "You said but."
"Oh~~ But..." He Jingxin nodded in sudden realization. She held the cup and took a sip, as if she was brewing something to say. There was resentment and worry in her eyes.
This is definitely intentional, intentional!
Oh my god!
He Jingxin asked casually, "Boss Xiao Yi, you really can't imagine what happened last night?"
This sentence, however, took me half an hour to finish.
Anyone else would have collapsed because the words were so slow.
Yi Jiu replied seriously: "I really didn't sleep with you last night!"
"Yi Jiu, why didn't I realize that you are a little stubborn before? Whenever something happens between you and I, you always think about sex and sleep. Hmm? I make you obsessed with me?" He Jingxin raised his chin and chuckled at last, "Yi Jiu, Yi Jiu..."
"I have been dealing with the Cheng family for many years. One of your sisters is self-respecting and self-loving, and the other sister is self-aware. It turns out that you are arrogant and narcissistic. Since I spoke to you, you have been narcissistic twice!" He Jingxin blew the hot water in his hand again, blowing away some white mist, and officially concluded, "Guinness World Records, if there is a ranking of narcissism, you are definitely qualified to participate. After all, if you are not ranked first, heaven and earth will not tolerate it."
Look! His mouth still looks like it was poisoned!
The old He Jingxin is back! However, she is still a little different from before, and there is a hint of teasing in these words.
Is it my illusion?
"That shows that I have good self-control. A beauty like President He is no longer my type!"
"Now that I have seen all the young and beautiful omegas from wealthy families in Haicheng, my vision is naturally much better than before. Tell me, Mr. He, what's the but?"
The two of them secretly competed with each other.
He Jingxin said that Yi Jiu couldn't forget about her and all he wanted was to be with her. Yi Jiu said that she had seen the world and He Jingxin was no longer the type she liked.
"You tore my clothes. It's in your hands." He Jingxin pursed her lips and complained, "And you insisted that I wear your clothes."
"ah?"
"Last night, it rained heavily, and I kindly sent you home. Because it was too late, you let me stay here for the night. However, I didn't expect you to tear my new clothes and even bite me." He Jingxin said aggrievedly, listing Yi Jiu's faults, "and let me sleep on the sofa."
Two sentences suddenly flashed into Yi Jiu's mind:
——He Jingxin, you are a super bad guy! What's wrong with me biting you?
——He Jingxin, you let me sleep on the sofa on my territory.
"If the clothes are damaged, you have to pay for it." He Jingxin handed the payment voucher to Yi Jiu. Yi Jiu was shocked when he saw the number and blurted out: "Now the clothes still have decimals? 400158.88, 158.88, you won't erase it for me?"
It was clearly 40158.88, but in her eyes it seemed like there was an extra zero.
He Jingxin didn't want to remind her and just regarded it as nutrition fee for herself.
"Meituan sent medicine, including anti-inflammatory drugs, painkillers, and diclofenac emulsion, totaling 108.88. I gave you 50 for sending you back to the apartment. Why should I erase the difference for you? Erase the fact that you bit me! I didn't even calculate for you the cost of scar removal. You caused me harm." He Jingxin said gritting her teeth, rolling up her sleeves. Yi Jiu clearly saw a row of teeth marks on them, and there were still bloodstains on her skin.
Yi Jiu lost her temper instantly. She turned away in annoyance, and heard He Jingxin's faint voice through her earlobe: "Boss Yi, do you want to go to the hospital with me to compare teeth marks?"
Yi Jiu still said stubbornly: "You provoke me, otherwise how could I do such a thing."
"You can adjust the surveillance."
