Chapter 78
It snowed, and the city turned white again.
Today the CEO's office was very busy. It was the last day before the holiday, and everyone was busy while looking for opportunities to slack off, waiting for the last moment to come.
Roger bought some fruit desserts and treated everyone to the last afternoon tea of the year.
While eating and chatting, Qinqin suddenly asked curiously: "Secretary Luo, have you been in love recently?"
Luo Jie touched his face and said in a good mood: "Did you see that? Yes, I'm in love, hehe."
"I said, you have been in a good mood recently, and your complexion has improved a lot." Qinqin started gossiping, "Where is your girlfriend from? Is she pretty? Are you going to take her home for the New Year?"
"Well." Luo Jie thought for a while and said, "She, she is very beautiful. It's just that, that, she is a little tall, a little strong, and has a bad temper."
"Ah." Qinqin looked at him worriedly and said, "Other things are okay, but a bad temper is not good. Secretary Luo, you have a good temper. You can tell at a glance that you are a person who dotes on your girlfriend. You might be bullied."
"Well..." It seems that she didn't bully him? They have been getting along really well recently, and it's not an exaggeration to say that they are inseparable.
Lulu winked at Qinqin: "Qinqin, there are still some final documents to seal, come with me, we can finish it early and go home early... Secretary Luo, can we leave early today? We all have to catch a plane."
"Sure, sure." Luo Jie said with a smile, "Go ahead, I'll eat something."
He Songgao was also in a meeting, but he didn't have a day off today, and he might not be able to go home until New Year's Eve.
Luo Jie bought a ticket to go home on the morning of the 30th, and he would stay at He Songgao's house for a few days to cultivate their relationship.
His mother was not happy to know that he didn't go back until the 30th: "Didn't your company have an early holiday in the past? Why is it that we have a holiday on New Year's Eve this year?"
Luo Jie said calmly: "Hey, I got a promotion, it's normal for me to be busy, only by being busy can I make more money."
"Who are you going to spend the money on? You don't even have a girlfriend, what's the point of making so much money."
"Who said I don't have a girlfriend?" Luo Jie told the truth on impulse, but he didn't plan to lie to his mother. Sooner or later, she would know, so as not to arrange some weird blind dates for him. "I have a girlfriend and we are in a good relationship now."
"Ah?" His mother was surprised, "When did it happen? Why didn't you tell me earlier?!" "
Not long ago."
"Where is the girl from?" his mother said happily, "Bring her back to meet me during the Chinese New Year."
"Oh, not so soon!" Luo Jie laughed, "Our relationship is not that solid yet, how can we meet our parents so soon."
"Then hurry up and cultivate her!" his mother said anxiously, "Be nice to the girl, buy her what she should buy, and don't be so stingy. By the way, the bag you bought for me last time has arrived, how about I send it to you and you can give it to your girlfriend... Hey, what does she look like? Do you have a photo? Send it to me and let your dad see it first."
"No need, Mom, you don't know, usually she is the one who spends money on me and I never have the chance to pay." Roger found a place to sit down and talked to his mother, "She is very good to me and loves me very much. She bought that bag for me and asked me to give it to you."
"Ah?" His mother was stunned, "No, what do you mean, have you found another rich girl?" His mother yelled and almost broke Roger's eardrums.
"Not a rich girl." Luo Jie said hesitantly, "She's older than me."
"...How much older?" His mother's eyes went dark, and she asked cautiously, "She should be younger than me, right?"
"What are you thinking, Mom!" Luo Jie knew as soon as he heard it, his mother mistakenly thought he had found a rich older woman, "She's about the same age as me, a little older than me, and," Luo Jie said tentatively, "She may be... a little masculine, not a traditional girl."
"Oh, that's okay!" His mother breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay as long as you two get along - how rich is her family? As long as the gap between the rich and the poor is not too obvious, it doesn't matter. If the gap is too big, you have to think about it carefully, don't waste three years of your youth like last time..."
"Well, this one seems to be richer than the last one."
"..."
"Mom?"
"Wait for me for a while." His mother sighed, "I've calculated your fortune these two days. You are not destined to be a son-in-law who marries into his wife's family in this life, are you?"
"That's not the case." He wondered in confusion, which one his mother could accept more, homosexuality or a son-in-law who marries into his wife's family?
But his mother seemed to be too shocked and hung up the phone without saying a word.
Oh, forget it, let's talk about this matter when we get home.
It was not yet time, Lulu and Qinqin had left, and Luo Jie simply sat in He Songgao's office to wait for him. He was in a meeting, and Luo Jie didn't bother him, but sat on the sofa and played with his mobile phone.
The meeting lasted a long time, until dark, and Luo Jie took a nap on the sofa, but he hadn't finished yet. Luo Jie was lying on the sofa and texted him: "Not finished yet?"
He Songgao: "Right away."
"Then do you want to go back after dinner?"
"Go back to eat."
"Oh."
Five minutes later, He Songgao came back.
Luo Jie leaned over and kissed him: "Why did you take so long?"
He Songgao hugged his waist, and the two kissed seriously for a while. Luo Jie suddenly shuddered, pushed him away and said: "Don't do this in the office next time."
"Didn't you start it first?" He Songgao pinched his waist and said with a smile.
"I forgot..." Luo Jie was a little scared, "I always feel that there are surveillance cameras here."
"No." He Songgao looked up with him, "You are too sensitive."
Luo Jie looked at him dimly, "Don't you know that gossip will spread in the air of the office, we'd better be careful."
"You are so cute." He Songgao lowered his head and rubbed his cheek with his nose, "Have you ever thought that everyone may know?"
"Ah?" Luo Jie's face twisted, "It's impossible, Qinqin asked me today if I had a girlfriend. It seems that she doesn't know."
"Haha." He Songgao hooked his waist and walked out, "Then let's go home, dear. Have you packed your things?"
He was talking about his clothes. If you want to live in his house, you must pack your luggage. Roger nodded, "It's in the trunk. What do you want to eat tonight? I can order some food."
"At 12:00."
To avoid suspicion, Luo Jie took the elevator down first and waited for him in the car. For a second or two, he felt that this underground relationship was annoying, and it would be much better if it could be done openly. But it was not so glorious to make their relationship public... Wait, what was not glorious about it? They were in a serious relationship, not a shameful affair. Why did he look like he had done something wrong? When
He Songgao got in the car, he saw such an angry face.
"What's wrong with you?"
Luo Jie snorted, "It's all your fault. The gossips all say that I compromised and became your secret lover for money, why don't they say that you forced me to do that? That's too much. My reputation got worse and worse because of this, I'm almost becoming the 'evil concubine who brought disaster to the country'."
He Songgao paused and said, "Not really. Everyone thinks we're a good match."
"How did you know that?" Luo Jie pinched his palm, "Those people wouldn't tell you about this."
"Why think so much? What's the use of knowing? Go home and have dinner."
"Oh." That's true. What's the use of knowing? Anyway, no one dares to do anything to him except He Songgao, haha.
He Songgao also wanted to go home for the New Year, but it seemed that the flight was at 8 o'clock on New Year's Eve, so it would be eleven or twelve o'clock when he got home. Luo Jie asked him why he didn't go home early to have the New Year's Eve dinner, He Songgao said: "My family doesn't have the habit of celebrating New Year's Eve."
"Ah?" Luo Jie opened his mouth wide and suddenly felt a little scared, "Well, how are your parents? Are they very fierce?"
It was time to go to bed, and the two of them lay together and chatted. He Songgao looked at him and suddenly smiled: "Are you worried about the future conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law?" "
...You are the one who is worried about the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law." Luo Jie raised his head and glared at him, "If we talk about it, it should be my mother- in-law
." "Don't worry, they won't care."
"What do you mean by won't care?"
"That is, no matter who I am with, and no matter whether I will get married in the future," He Songgao kissed his forehead, "so I may not take you home - strictly speaking, I have my own home now, and I have already brought you back."
"Oh." Luo Jie felt a little sad, "Do you have a bad relationship with your parents?"
"It's just so-so." He Songgao said, "But I have a good relationship with my brother. He said that if he has more sons in the future, he will pass one to me."
"Ah?" Luo Jie opened his mouth wide, "This, won't your sister-in-law mind?"
"He has many lovers, so he probably won't know if he secretly gave birth to a child."
"You, how could you do that." Luo Jie looked at him with a reproachful look, "Do you really have to have a child? If you don't have one, then don't have one. At worst, you can live in a nursing home in the future. Anyway, you have a lot of money, so it's not impossible to find a better nursing home."
"Will you go to the nursing home with me?"
"Uh." What's going on? Why do you beat around the bush to get him to grow old with you? Luo Jie blushed, "Isn't it a bit too early to talk about this now? We are not sure how long we can talk."
"Haha." He Songgao patted his head and said nothing more, "Then go to bed."
Luo Jie looked at the time. It was not yet ten o'clock. Wasn't it a bit early? "Well, do you want to do it?"
"Do what?" He Songgao looked at him, as if he was asking a question that he knew the answer to.
"Why are you pretending?" Luo Jie whispered, "I just don't believe you don't want to do it."
"...Aren't you afraid of the pain?" He Songgao smiled helplessly, pinching his waist under the quilt, "You accept it too quickly."
"It hurt a little at the beginning." Luo Jie said honestly, "but later, it was quite comfortable." He lay down and covered himself with the quilt, leaving only a pair of rolling eyes, "Come on or not."
He Songgao lifted the quilt and crawled in: "Come."
If the next few days had to be summed up in two words, they would be, chaos. He Songgao said he wanted to go to work, but he couldn't resist the temptation and asked for leave every time. If he really couldn't do it, he would work in the study at home. In the end, Roger felt that he might be over-developed and his butt was hurting, so he asked if he wanted to take a break. It happened that he wanted to go home and have a good rest during these few days at home.
The two reluctantly said goodbye at the airport. Luo Jie said, "I'll be back soon."
He Songgao: "No, stay with your parents."
Luo Jie looked at him affectionately, "But I want to be with you more."
He Songgao took a step forward, lifted his face, and rubbed it up and down, left and right, "If you continue like this, I'll tie you up and take you home."
"Hehe." Seeing that there was no one around, Luo Jie quickly kissed him on the mouth, "I'll miss you. Let's call."
"Okay." He Songgao let go of his hand, "Go."
