Jian Xiaoxing's heart tightened, he covered his chest, and opened the door with a little expectation.
It was indeed Shen Ze, holding a white paper bag in his hand, and he looked very gentle under the unusually dim light in the corridor.
Jian Xiaoxing opened the door and invited him in. He simply placed the paper bag in her hand without taking a step. "This is the pastry for dinner. I think it tastes good, so I brought some for you."
"Thank you." Jian Xiaoxing took the paper bag and smiled.
When someone gives you something delicious, you naturally have to act happy.
After delivering the cakes, Shen Ze turned around and went back to his room.
Jian Xiaoxing opened the paper package layer by layer and saw the exquisitely crafted pastries, which immediately made him hungry.
It was so sweet when she took a bite. The black sesame paste inside overflowed and stuck to the corners of her lips, emitting the fragrance of sesame.
Just as she was enjoying the delicious food in her mouth, there was another knock on the door.
Jian Xiaoxing took two steps at a time and opened the door curiously, only to find that it was still Chen Ze.
This time, he had his briefcase in his hand.
"I'm missing some important data for tomorrow's project plan. Can you help me think about it? I'm afraid it will be too late tomorrow." Shen Ze came in uninvited this time and walked straight to the desk in the room.
Jian Xiaoxing's mouth was full, like a little hamster, and he spoke unclearly: "No way, I just ate a piece of your cake, and you want me to work overtime!"
Chen Ze put down his bag and looked at her. Only then could he see clearly that her cheeks were bulging and there was black sesame paste at the corners of her mouth, which made her skin look smooth and white without a single spot of color.
He couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth and reached out his hand to her face.
Jian Xiaoxing just happened to turn sideways to tidy up the open romance novel on the bed and avoided it.
Shen Ze's hand stopped in mid-air, he was stunned for a few seconds, then quickly put it to the back of his head, his eyes fell on the cover of the novel.
The cover showed a picture of a handsome man and a beautiful woman hugging and kissing each other. He quickly turned his head away and pretended not to see it.
Soon, Jian Xiaoxing tidied the messy bed and put away the novels and snacks, but left the newly bought review materials on the table untouched.
Chen Ze had already taken the project plan out of his bag, and the neatly arranged manuscripts covered the entire desk.
He handed her one of the manuscripts and pointed to a page.
"Take a look at these data. Do you still remember them?"
Jian Xiaoxing took the manuscript, bit her lip and closed her eyes. When she opened her eyes again, she quickly wrote down the data on the paper.
"Jian Xiaoxing, your memory is quite good." Shen Ze couldn't help but praise.
Jian Xiaoxing wasn't being modest. "I'll remember the data in the report for about ten days. Fortunately, I haven't forgotten anything you asked for."
Chen Ze showed an excited expression and began to ask her to check the data in the plan, while he adjusted the plan based on the data.
The two of them sat at the table, cooperating with each other, and several hours passed by unknowingly.
Jian Xiaoxing was so sleepy that his eyelids were drooping and his mind was beginning to feel fuzzy, but Chen Ze seemed to be more energetic and seemed to be determined to produce a perfect project proposal.
"You go to sleep first!" Shen Ze finally said.
Jian Xiaoxing threw himself onto the bed as if he had been granted amnesty, and fell asleep the next second with even breathing sounds.
Half of her face was buried in the sheets, and the other half was covered by her loose hair. She didn't look like she was sleeping at all.
Chen Ze picked up the quilt and covered her with it. His slender fingers lifted her hair and tucked it behind her ear. He silently admired her sleeping face for a long time before going back to work.
After dinner, he did not accept his uncle's invitation to go to his room, which meant that he had to come up with an impeccable project plan to gain everyone's unanimous approval.
The next day, when Jian Xiaoxing woke up, Chen Ze had already left. A note was slipped through the crack of the door, telling her that the meeting would end around 3 pm and that he would call her then.
Jian Xiaoxing put the note on the table, put his hands in his thick hair, and laughed silently.
Last night, the two of them, a man and a woman, were alone in a room for several hours, and they were really discussing technical issues. If I don’t tell you about this, no one will believe it!
In any case, three in the afternoon was still early and she could still wander around.
The department store was crowded with people.
Jian Xiaoxing was puzzled. Everyone was only earning a few dozen yuan a month, but there were so many people in the expensive department store.
The second floor sells clothes. She casually browsed around and found that the styles of the clothes here were indeed quite fashionable. They were said to be popular in Hong Kong and Taiwan, but the prices were too high. A coat cost twenty-five yuan. Would anyone really spend a month's salary on a piece of clothing?
She suddenly felt that Jian Xia's street stall goods were very affordable. She could buy a top for two yuan and a pair of pants for one yuan and fifty cents, and she wouldn't feel bad about wearing new clothes every month.
Jian Xiaoxing laughed. Why didn't she travel through time and space to become a rich man's daughter so that she wouldn't have to lament the money in her pocket?
Fortunately, she could still choose from the small commodity area on the first floor of the store.
She picked out some small items such as lipsticks and socks for her family. When she was about to leave, she saw a light blue cashmere scarf and her eyes lit up.
The scarf is very textured, and when worn around Shen Ze's neck, it must match his cool temperament!
She smiled, took out ten dollars and bought the scarf.
He saved her several times and she should be thanked.
After stuffing the towel into the cloth bag and turning to leave, he almost bumped into Su Bin.
Jian Xiaoxing asked with a smile, "Why are you here?"
Su Bin smiled brightly, "Why are you here again?"
In fact, he saw her a few minutes ago. Seeing her carefully selecting something, he pretended to bump into her by accident.
Jian Xiaoxing told him about his job as a driver.
