Chapter 29
Chapter 28
She said that I was waiting for you, as if she was saying “Get me down right away.” Ji Xi stared at this line, thinking about Qiao Zhiyu’s tone when she said this.
Qiao Zhiyu waited in the elevator on the third floor. Look at the elevator floor starting from the 22nd floor, and the uniform speed of each floor decreases.
B3 floor.
After the elevator stopped, the door opened.
Ji Xi raised her eyes, a delicate and familiar face came into her eyes little by little as the elevator door slowly opened.
Long curly hair, red lips, and a leisurely smile. A careless look is amazing.
Ji Xi couldn’t help thinking, no wonder the male colleagues in the company were so excited about discussing Joe. If I were a man, I would probably like this type of woman too. Mature people have different charms.
Think far. Ji Xi suddenly found out that she seemed to have never considered what her ideal type would be, or what kind of person she would be with in the future?
Busy studying and making money, Ji Xi never thought about falling in love at all. Everyone who pursued her, she refused mechanically because she didn’t want to be distracted.
In fact, she has never met someone she likes, and she doesn’t know how it feels when she particularly likes someone. For her, feelings are indeed a very unfamiliar area.
After stepping out of the elevator and seeing Qiao Zhiyu, Ji Xi’s lips raised slightly.
Qiao Zhiyu wears high heels, a few centimeters higher than Ji Xiluo. It’s very interesting to look obediently and obediently after being stiff. She smiled and said to Jixi: “Let’s go.”
Ji Xi followed behind Qiao Zhiyu and walked to the underground garage.
Qiao Zhiyu usually wears high heels at the company. For the convenience of driving, he will prepare a pair of flat shoes in the car. Ji Xi usually doesn’t wear high heels when he goes to work. Low-level employees like them often have to go out and work like today. Wearing high heels is too exhausting. Can’t bear it.
After getting in the car.
Qiao Zhiyu looked at Ji Xi’s feet subconsciously. She said, “If you feel uncomfortable, you can take off your shoes.”
It’s impolite to take off your shoes in someone else’s car, Ji Xi refused to kill him, “It’s okay, it’s not uncomfortable.”
Qiao Zhiyu couldn’t help but said, “Isn’t it uncomfortable if it’s all worn out?”
“It’s not uncomfortable.” Ji Xi repeated, pursing her lower lip. Anyway, it’s an expression that I say is not uncomfortable and not uncomfortable.
Qiao Zhiyu looked at Ji Xi helplessly, no sign. After silence, she asked again: “What size shoes do you wear?”
“Why are you asking this?” Ji Xi was puzzled.
Qiao Zhiyu said easily: “Curious.”
Curious about this? Ji Xi said: “37.”
“Well, it’s the same as me.” Qiao Zhiyu said casually, without saying anything else.
Ji Xi glanced at Qiao Zhiyu in confusion, this inexplicable conversation.
As soon as the car started moving, the car was quiet. Both of them stopped talking.
Ji Xi pulled on the seat belt, leaned quietly on the back of the chair, looking ahead, why did she hit someone’s car again today… Just saw Qiao Zhiyu sent her a WeChat message saying that while waiting for her, she didn’t think much. Just go straight down.
After not walking, the feet are much better, but they hurt when they move. She looked down at the heels and the new shoes. They were worn so badly that she didn’t notice at all in the afternoon. Now I know the pain.
Not long after driving out of the garage, Qiao Zhiyu looked out of the car window and parked the car on the side of the road.
When Ji Xi was wondering, she saw Qiao Zhiyu turn her head: “Wait for me, I’ll go shopping.”
Ji Xi snorted “Yes” and didn’t ask much.
After Qiao Zhiyu got out of the car, Ji Xi saw her walking into a shop on the street. After going there for a while, she didn’t see her.
Ji Xi was bored, staring in the car for a week, it was very clean and tidy, and there was a refreshing fragrance. Very suitable for the taste of summer.
Waited for a while.
Ji Xi finally caught a glimpse of Qiao Zhiyu’s figure again, walking in the evening breeze, with graceful figure and long hair fluttering. Except for the white shopping bag in his hand, it seemed a little different from her.
The car door was opened, and a little wind was inhaled, it was the sultry atmosphere of midsummer. There was a bang, and the door was closed again.
Qiao Zhiyu got into the driver’s seat, tucked his slightly tousled hair, then handed the shopping bag in his hand to Ji Xi, “I bought a pair of slippers.”
flip flop? When Qiao Zhiyu asked her shoe size, Ji Xi actually thought of Qiao Zhiyu’s buying shoes for her. But after thinking about it, I think it’s impossible.
Looking at the shopping bag Qiao Zhiyu handed over, Ji Xi was quite dazed.
Joe always treats her too kindly.
Perhaps the relationship between her and Qiao Zhiyu was closer than she thought. Just like my sister.
At this time, Ji Xi’s heart was moved far more than the embarrassment of owing favors. She took it and looked at Qiao Zhiyu: “You bought it for me specially.”
Qiao Zhiyu only said: “This one does not grind his feet.”
It is correct not to tell Ji Xi in advance, otherwise her temper will definitely say no.
Seeing Ji Xi holding the bag without speaking, Qiao Zhiyu asked softly: “What?”
“You are so kind to me.” After uttering this sentence, Ji Xi laughed, thinking that this sentence was so stupid, it was so stupid.
Sure enough, there are words that are only suitable for thinking in your heart, not for putting it on your lips.
It’s awkward to say it.
Qiao Zhiyu listened and laughed for a while. She admits that she is very caring about Ji Xi, perhaps because it is rare to meet someone who can get along so comfortably. It’s fate.
“Are you not satisfied with how you are?” Qiao Zhiyu said quizzically.
Ji Xi smiled at her, smiling gently.
Qiao Zhiyu: “You kind of listen to me.”
Ji Xi: “Huh?”
Qiao Zhiyu said: “It looks good with a smile.”
Ji Xi lowered her head and smiled again, still thinking in her heart that she was really happy to know her.
Qiao Zhiyu looked at the shopping bag in her hand: “Put it on and feel comfortable.”
“Yeah.” Ji Xi took out the slippers inside and took a look. It was pink and tender in color, like a kitten, with two three-dimensional cat ears standing on it.
A bit like an enlarged version of children’s slippers.
She buys everything in black, white and gray, so she would definitely not choose slippers of this color and this style.
In front of Qiao Zhiyu’s face, Ji Xi was no longer cautious, she took off the flat shoes that were grinding her feet.
Ji Xi’s feet are thin and white, and light blue blood vessels can be seen on the back of his feet.
Going barefoot into cartoon sandals and slippers is really comfortable, but it looks a little funny. A formal dress, and stepping on such a pair of pink slippers, full of a sense of violation. Ji Xi looked at her feet and was very happy.
Qiao Zhiyu glanced indifferently, and seriously commented: “Very cute.”
It’s cute again. Ji Xi’s belly slander, it seems that Qiao always loves childish and cute things very much.
Ji Xi stepped on her slippers comfortably, “How much?”
Qiao Zhi overtook his answer: “Thirty-nine yuan and nine.”
Ji Xi: “I’ll transfer the money to you.”
“No need.” Qiao Zhiyu tilted his head and said to Ji Xi half-jokingly: “Let me and Xiao Qiao always have a meal with you on weekends.”
Ji Xi held the phone and heard what Qiao Zhiyu said, she behaved very willingly: “Okay.”
“You can cook?” Qiao Zhiyu just said casually.
“Home cooking. What do you want to eat?” Ji Xi still has this confidence. When she first entered junior high school, she was able to make a decent table of meals.
Qiao Zhiyu: “I’m not picky eaters, it’s okay.”
Ji Xi said again: “Then you help me ask what Xiao Qiao always wants to eat.”
Qiao Zhiyu smiled, “Go back and I will ask her.”
The happiest one should be Qiao Qing. Qiao Zhiyu can imagine how excited the little guy can be. She hasn’t told Qiao Qing about going to Ji Xina on Sunday.
On Sunday, Ji Xi woke up early.
She lay on the bed and habitually touched her phone first to see if there were any important news or emails from work.
If not, you can relax on weekends. Take care of your own business.
Ji Xi opened the WeChat and mailbox, luckily, there was nothing at work.
There are two unread messages.
One was sent by Jiang Nian, saying that she and Qiao Zhiyu were just ordinary friends, saying that she and Qiao Zhiyu were just ordinary friends.
The other is a music sharing link sent by Lu Feng last night, saying that the song is good, and share it with her. Ji Xi was equally lazy.
The first thing Ji Xi does after getting up is to turn on the laptop. After she finishes washing, she carries a bag of toast and sits at the desk, eating breakfast while busy working.
I bought the toast at the bakery downstairs last night. It was a big bag of ten slices, and I felt very full. Ji Xi took two or three slices and then put it down.
Ji Xi is busy with the project analysis report for the assessment, ranging from the overall logic to the data format, although she has checked it several times. But today I still want to improve it. After all, it is the key to whether it can be converted.
Typing on the keyboard, the document was revised, Ji Xi forgot the time, and the morning passed quickly. She had just saved the document, and suddenly a call reminder sounded.
Ji Xi looked at the electric display. A string of unfamiliar numbers, but the number belongs to Rongcheng.
Rongcheng is not far from Beilin, and Ji Xi’s hometown is in a small town in Rongcheng.
After more than a dozen sounds, Ji Xi answered. After answering, she didn’t speak immediately, but waited for the other person to speak first.
“Xiaoxi, it’s me…” The voice of a middle-aged woman had a thick Mandarin accent.
Ji Xi just guessed something, and after hearing this voice, he was 100% sure who it was. Yang Ping, a woman who has nothing to do with her legally, but is her biological mother in blood.
“You come back and live with us, okay?” Yang Ping pleaded.
“I have nothing to do with you. I said don’t contact me again.” Ji Xi’s voice was cold, without the slightest temperature.
Ji Xi always felt that she had nothing to do with that family as early as the moment she was abandoned when she was three years old. She didn’t know how Yang Ping found her. Perhaps when she was eighteen years old, the news that a girl from a small town won the number one prize in science in Rongcheng became a sensation.
Anyway, during the summer vacation that year, she saw a middle-aged couple with withered faces. They suddenly ran up to her and said that it was her parents. She also said with tears that she was forced to live with her back then.
Ji Xi didn’t recognize them, no matter how others persuaded him, he refused to recognize them alive and dead. Also drove them away viciously.
Because of this incident, Ji Xi was often pointed out, saying that this little girl’s heart was too hard, after all, blood is thicker than water, and her biological parents pleaded with her nose and tears.
What blood is thicker than water, Ji Xi thinks is bullshit, this is not a reason to forgive everything at all.
Ji Xi wants to hang up.
There was a cry from Yang Ping on the other end of the phone, “If it weren’t for this, I wouldn’t have come to you. Your brother is sick and the family is short of money now. It’s because you have the ability… Just let us lend you Yes, it doesn’t matter if you hate us, but he is your brother anyway, you feel sorry for him and help him…”
She also has two “sisters” and one “brother”, which Yang Ping told her.
“Then did you feel sorry for me back then?” Ji Xi never cried normally, but as soon as she said this, her nose was a little sore, and she felt that it was not worth crying, so she forced her tears back into her eyes.
She really didn’t want to mention it again.
I don’t want to say a word.
“The family was too poor back then, so…”
“So you can care about my life or death, so you can continue to have one.” Ji Xi sneered, her tone was very calm, and she was calm only when she was frustrated. She continued: “I tell you, I just have no intentions. Lung, I don’t care whether you are alive or dead. I don’t have to inform me.”
After speaking, Ji Xi hung up the phone and pulled the number into the blacklist. The moment she lowered her head, there was still a drop of tears sliding down her cheek, and she wiped it easily, as if nothing happened.
It is disgusting and uncomfortable in my heart, as disgusting and uncomfortable as swallowing a dead fly.
The doorbell rang.
Ji Xi looked up at the time.
Only then realized that it was a little too much now, it should be Qiao Zhiyu who brought Qiao Qing over to class.
Come over at this time.
Ji Xi took a deep breath, wiped his eyes again, and lingered for a while before opening the door. She didn’t want to be seen that she had cried.
As a result, the door opened.
Qiao Zhiyu noticed Ji Xi’s slightly red eyes, “What’s the matter?”
