He Jingzhi's message came quickly: "Sure, do you need me to bring anything else?"
Ali opened the refrigerator and saw that everything was there, so she replied, "No need, I'll just have a simple meal."
Give me that spot.
Ahri excitedly sent her home address, saying, "Let me know when you arrive, I'll come down to meet you."
Okay, wait for me.
Ali quickly swept the floor, tidied up the room and sofa, washed the vegetables, and cooked rice.
He Jingzhi's message came through: "I've arrived."
I'll come pick you up.
Ah Li took her phone and went downstairs to pick up the person.
He Jingzhi was wearing a suit and tie this time, very formally.
Ahri, on the other hand, was quite casual, coming downstairs in a light blue loungewear outfit.
When He Jingzhi saw Ali coming over, he took out a bouquet of roses from the car and said, "I didn't know what to bring, so I brought a bouquet of flowers."
Ah Li looked at He Jingzhi, and He Jingzhi looked at Ah Li very seriously, and handed the flowers to Ah Li, saying, "These are for you."
Did you buy it yourself?
"Yes, I specifically chose it before coming."
He Jingzhi's eyes were gentle, and Ah Li, instead of being shy like a little girl, naturally accepted the gift, saying, "Thank you."
Sometimes, you don't need to say it out loud; a single glance is enough for everyone to understand.
There weren't many people in the neighborhood at that time, so Ah Li, carrying the flowers, took He Jingzhi back with her.
He Jingzhi quietly followed Ah Li. He had thought it over carefully and wanted to try being with Ah Li.
When Ali opened the door, He Jingzhi said, "My name is He Jingzhi, male, 32 years old, 182 cm tall, no bad habits, single, no scandals, and I have never been in a relationship."
Seeing that He Jingzhi was about to continue, Ali chuckled and said, "I know that your information is no secret within the company."
He Jingzhi, this young and promising president, has already reached the pinnacle of many entrepreneurs.
He excels at considering problems from multiple perspectives and is not bound by traditional thinking patterns. He dares to challenge authority and is willing to try new methods and strategies, which enables his decisions to consistently bring new opportunities and breakthroughs to the company.
At the same time, he also attaches great importance to teamwork and is good at listening to the opinions and suggestions of others, so as to pool wisdom and make decisions more perfect.
He always prioritized the long-term interests of the company and was not swayed by short-term gains or losses.
It was this unwavering belief and persistent pursuit that enabled him to overcome all obstacles and achieve great success in the business world.
Ahri didn't say anything else, only saying, "Come in and have dinner together."
He Jingzhi looked down and noticed several pairs of men's slippers and men's leather shoes on the shoe rack.
His heart skipped a beat. Were there other men in the house? Could they have heard what he had just said?
Seeing that He Jingzhi was following behind her without moving, but instead looking at the several pairs of men's shoes in front of him, Ali smiled and said, "Don't misunderstand, it's just me and my daughter at home. We usually buy a few pairs of men's shoes and put them in the shoe rack. No one wears them. We just buy them to make people think that there is a male head of the household."
"And what about him?"
When He Jingzhi heard Ah Li say that no one had ever worn them, his discomfort disappeared. He also found that the shoes fit perfectly, not too big or too small, and were very comfortable to wear.
Ahri thought for a moment, and realized that the person the original owner's sister had chosen seemed to have moved away with his parents, and no one knew where he was.
We haven't been in touch even once all these years.
Ahri whispered, "I don't know."
He Jingzhi didn't ask any more questions. He went into the house and found it clean with a faint scent of gardenias.
Ahri has already gone into the kitchen to get soup and rice.
He Jingzhi went over to help, and Ali even asked him to help get the bowls and chopsticks.
"It's in that cabinet over there."
He Jingzhi helped take out the bowls and chopsticks, and Ali prepared to cook two dishes.
He Jingzhi rolled up his sleeves, wanting to show off his skills, but Ali said, "I'll do it."
The kitchen exhaust fan was turned on at this time. Ali poured oil, chopped vegetables, and stir-fried them in the pan, all with great skill.
He Jingzhi felt once again that his father had excellent judgment.
After Ah Li finished cooking, the two had a simple meal.
After finishing his meal, He Jingzhi cleared away the dishes and prepared to wash them.
Ah Li looked at He Jingzhi and smiled, "You're so down-to-earth! I thought the president didn't do these things."
He Jingzhi said, "How could I not do it? It's not like the president doesn't lift a finger."
Ali was going to be polite, but seeing that He Jingzhi really wanted to wash, she took an apron and said, "Tie it on, otherwise I'm worried that your clothes will get splashed with water."
"Help me." He Jingzhi moved slightly closer to Ah Li.
Ali didn't stand on ceremony and tied the apron around He Jingzhi's waist.
The feeling of the two seemingly embracing was wonderful, making one want to get even closer.
He Jingzhi kept his eyes down, watching Ali. After Ali tied her apron, he coughed lightly and went to wash the dishes.
Ahri took a rag and went to wipe the table.
After He Jingzhi finished washing the dishes, Ali took out the plan she had printed out. "This is the plan I've prepared. Would you like to take a look at it first?"
He Jingzhi was about to lower his sleeves, but seeing that Ah Li was about to talk about work, he placed one hand on the plan, leaned slightly towards Ah Li, and said, "Are we really going to talk about work now?"
