Chapter 56 The elevator falls, and Li Zhinan holds Cheng Yan in his arms
Cheng Yan's smile froze slightly. She quickly glanced at Li Zhinan, then replied with a smile, "Yichen, you haven't found it yet, why should I be so anxious?"
Ji Yichen smiled devilishly: "I'm busy looking for one right now. I have a lot of outstanding men around me. Do you want me to introduce them to you?"
Cheng Yan stopped laughing instantly. She said seriously, "I'm really not in a hurry. I just want to achieve something in my work now. As for love, let it take its course."
Ji Yichen raised his eyebrows: "Well, if you don't have the idea of having a boyfriend, then you still have to be careful about the degree, otherwise, if you cause a scandal, it will be bad for your reputation."
Chu Huaijing spun the cup around and said with a smile, "Yichen is right."
Li Zhinan's thoughts were all on Cheng Qian, and he always felt that she was too bright recently.
There is a tendency to attract bees and butterflies.
Now, she even hid it from him and came directly to have lunch with his two male friends.
As if her husband was dead?
Cheng Qian was not stupid, so she naturally heard that Ji Yichen seemed to be speaking up for her.
Unfortunately, some people are too thick-skinned and pretend not to understand.
Or maybe, they are so deeply in love that they don't care about other people's prejudiced views at all.
After an hour of lunch, the group prepared to leave.
Just then the elevator arrived and there was no one inside, so the group stepped in.
As the elevator was sliding down, for some unknown reason, the power suddenly went out and the elevator plummeted.
"Ah..." a cry of surprise was heard.
The elevator seemed to fall for a few seconds before the lights came on in the dark elevator.
Cheng Yan threw herself into Li Zhinan's arms, and Li Zhinan put his arms around her waist.
Cheng Qian was hugged by a man next to her, and his big hand around her waist protected her tightly.
When the lights come on.
Chu Huaijing narrowed his eyes slightly and looked between the four people.
The accident happened in seconds and returned to normal in seconds.
But within these few seconds, an unexpected situation occurred.
In Li Zhinan's arms, was Cheng Yan.
Ji Yichen stretched out his hands to protect Cheng Qian and held her in his arms.
Chu Huaijing was far away and before he could do anything, the elevator malfunctioned.
Li Zhinan glanced coldly to the side, only to see Cheng Qian being protected in Ji Yichen's arms.
Cheng Yan was also greatly surprised. She pretended to realize that she had hugged the wrong person and quickly took two steps back: "Cousin, I'm sorry, you know I'm afraid of heights. There was a sudden power outage just now, and I was so scared that Zhinan instinctively hugged me..."
It was only after Cheng Qian reacted that she realized someone was protecting her.
And this person turned out to be Ji Yichen.
"Sister Xiaoqian, are you okay?" Ji Yichen asked her with concern.
Cheng Qian said gratefully: "Thank you, Brother Yichen, I'm fine."
Chu Huaijing looked up at the elevator lights, frowned, and said, "Why did the power suddenly go out? This is too dangerous."
An announcement came from the elevator. It turned out that lightning had just struck the building, causing a brief circuit failure. Now everything is back to normal.
Ji Yichen was worried that Li Zhinan would take the opportunity to cause trouble, so he smiled and said, "Zhinan, my father has always regarded Xiaoqian as half a daughter. As a brother, I am also acting out of instinct..."
"No need to explain, you did a great job." Li Zhinan said calmly.
Cheng Qian naturally also saw the scene of Li Zhinan and Cheng Yan hugging each other tightly. She felt a pang of pain in her heart, but her face showed indifference.
When they got to the basement level, Li Zhinan said to Cheng Qian, "I didn't drive here. I'll take your car home."
Cheng Qian said coldly: "Sorry, I'm not on my way. I have to go somewhere else."
Cheng Yan immediately stepped forward to apologize: "Cousin, I'm sorry, did you misunderstand something just now? Zhinan, I'm sorry, please explain to me."
The man who was refused a ride had a cold expression on his face and said in a cold voice, "No need to explain."
After saying that, Li Zhinan opened Cheng Yan's passenger seat.
Cheng Yan quickly explained to Cheng Qian, "Zhi Nan and I are going back to the company first. We still have a meeting. Let's go first. Cousin, don't think too much."
Watching the Porsche drive away, Cheng Qian was so angry that her heart ached.
This is not the first time that Cheng Yan has blatantly provoked others.
Chu Huaijing looked at Ji Yichen and said, "Have you accepted Cheng Qian as your sister?"
Ji Yichen laughed: "That's what my dad meant. If I had such an outstanding sister, I would be really happy."
Cheng Qian chuckled and said, "Brother Yichen, if there is a chance in the future, I would also like to recognize Uncle Ji as my father."
"It's a deal then. Don't regret it when the time comes." Ji Yichen immediately clapped his hands, his face full of joy.
Cheng Qian nodded: "I won't regret it. This is something I have been longing for."
Chu Huaijing looked at Ji Yichen with a smile on his face and instantly felt that he was much more pleasing to the eye.
"Cheng Qian, where are you going? Is it convenient for you to go around Heyue Plaza? I have something to do there." Chu Huaijing asked politely.
Cheng Qian was stunned: "Mr. Chu didn't drive here?"
Chu Huaijing nodded: "I asked the driver to bring it over, but he was busy."
Ji Yichen was about to speak when Cheng Qian nodded: "Okay, then I'll give you a ride. I also want to go to the library, so it's on my way."
Ji Yichen swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth, smiled and waved: "You guys go first, I'll go back to the company later."
Cheng Qian drove away with Chu Huaijing.
Cheng Yan was adjusting her music at a traffic light when she suddenly saw a silver Mercedes-Benz behind her.
She noticed with her sharp eyes that there was a handsome figure sitting in the passenger seat of the Mercedes-Benz.
Cheng Yan narrowed her eyes and immediately smiled at Li Zhinan, who was resting his eyes, and said, "Zhinan, this is my cousin's car. How did Huai Jing leave in her car?"
Li Zhinan dozed off when he suddenly opened his eyes. He looked to the side with cold eyes and saw a silver car turning. The handsome figure in the passenger seat suddenly became a little dazzling.
Cheng's Biological Conference Room!
An important meeting just ended.
Li Zhinan sat in the main seat, leaving Cheng father and daughter alone to talk.
"The most crucial thing in cooperation between two parties is mutual trust. Is there something you haven't reported to me?" Li Zhinan looked at the Cheng father and daughter in a businesslike manner.
Cheng Yan's beautiful eyes widened in surprise, not knowing what Li Zhinan was referring to.
Cheng's father was also very scared. Li Zhinan was already the largest shareholder of their company. If he was offended, the consequences would be serious.
"Zhi Nan, just ask directly. If there is any misunderstanding, we will definitely explain it immediately." Cheng Yan looked at the man seriously and said.
Li Zhinan's face was as gloomy as water: "Haven't you found that fingertip elf yet?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of Cheng's father and daughter changed drastically.
"Zhi Nan, how do you know this?" Cheng Yan looked at him guiltily: "We are still looking for it, but the other party's IP is very secretive, and the technical team we are looking for has not yet cracked it."
Cheng Zhifei also hurriedly smiled and said, "Yes, we want to find this person and invite her to join. We are not intentionally hiding it, but it is not convenient to report it to you because it is not confirmed yet."
"Does your technical team just eat for free?" Li Zhinan knew that this fingertip elf could accurately point out the disadvantages of medicines. It was conceivable that she must be a top talent in this field.
So much time has passed, and Cheng and his daughter haven't been able to find anyone. He is very disappointed.
