Chapter 46
Chapter 45
For the whole week, Ji Xi’s dinner was settled at the company. There were more projects on hand, and working overtime was the norm. In addition, she saw that Qiao Zhiyu was very busy every day, so she put aside the meal together.
Qiao Zhiyu and Xiao Che are close, everyone in the office can tell. Everyone always likes to match handsome men and beautiful women with Lalang, and some gossip about the two has gradually increased.
The company’s gossip is mixed, and Ji Xi has never been interested in paying attention, but whenever she hears about “Mr Qiao”, her attention is always taken away unconsciously. It’s hard not to pay attention.
“Xiao Ji, get ready, and do your best with me later.” Shao Yu reminded Ji Xi early in the morning on Friday.
Shao Yu is optimistic about Ji Xi. Ji Xi is his apprentice. He will naturally have more snacks. If there is a chance to exercise, he will usually bring Ji Xi with him.
Ji Xi: “Well, good.”
The sun is scorching in the afternoon of August, and going out is like rolling in a hot pot. Everyone wants to sit in the office and blow air-conditioning comfortably, but going out is inevitable.
Ji Xi is happy to participate in the due diligence work, which means that you can get in touch with all kinds of people in a short time, and you can also intuitively understand the operating modes of various industries. Compared with sitting in the office and writing reports, you can learn a lot more.
The partner arranged lunch, meeting and talking, and was busy until more than four o’clock in the afternoon. Ji Xi first returned to the company with the information, and must sort out today’s due diligence report as soon as possible.
Standing on the first floor, Ji Xi was tired and waited for the elevator. Both ends rushed to and fro. She was a little sweaty. Her bangs were a little longer. She blocked her eyes.
I don’t know what it is because of staying up late, her throat is uncomfortable today, a little painful, like inflammation.
The floor on the display screen starts to drop a little bit from the 35th floor. Some wait.
Probably waited more than two minutes.
The elevator only reaches the first floor.
The door opened slowly, and someone walked out. Ji Xi looked up and was stunned when he saw the people inside. It was Qiao Zhiyu and Xiao Che standing in the elevator.
Hit up face-to-face.
“Mr. Qiao, Mr. Xiao.” Ji Hao said half a beat slowly.
When Qiao Zhiyu saw Ji Xi’s complexion at a glance.
Ji Xi also didn’t pay attention to whether the elevator was going up or down, and just walked in.
Qiao Zhiyu reminded her softly: “This is the downward direction.”
Ji Xi suddenly regained consciousness, and took a half step back out of the elevator, “Yeah.”
The elevator doors closed again.
The next elevator came, and the people inside saw Ji Xi standing in a daze and didn’t go in, so they helped hold the elevator and asked kindly: “Would you like to go up?”
“Thank you.” Ji Xi walked in with the information.
In the elevator.
Xiao Che smiled and asked Qiao Zhiyu: “Are you familiar with the girl just now?”
Qiao Zhiyu: “How do you tell?”
“I think you have paid special attention to her more than once.” Xiao Che tilted his head and joked: “If you didn’t know that you were straight, I thought you were in love with others.”
Qiao Zhiyu said noncommittal, “I observe very carefully.”
Xiao Che: “My eyes are sharp.”
Qiao Zhi overstepped him: “Leave your lips on the dinner table before playing.”
After returning to the work station, Ji Xi started to organize the report.
A private chat group in the company became active again. Ji Xi was blocked. If she didn’t click on WeChat after receiving customer news, she would not have seen it.
Seeing that they were discussing Qiao Zhiyu, Ji Xi clicked on the group chat.
A group chat with all women except the leader is called “eating melon group”. Such groups are also useful. You can learn a lot about who is from what background and who is from what background.
After looking at the chat records line by line, Ji Xi froze after watching their conversation.
…
“Mr. Qiao, Mr. Xiao szd”
“real or fake?!”
“Just now in the underground garage, Mr. Joe got in Mr. Xiao’s car.”
“Isn’t this normal? They were in charge of a recent IPO project of the company.”
“What about kissing? I saw Mr. Xiao kiss Mr. Qiao.”
“Woc!”
“!!!”
“Really together?”
“I’m really knocked out? It’s so sweet.”
…
When Ji Xi saw the word kissing, her heart suddenly seemed to be pricked. She kept a facial paralyzed expression after watching all the conversations, but in her heart, she seemed to be blocked by something.
It’s not another feeling.
She knew clearly that it was uncomfortable.
What is uncomfortable, uncomfortable is so inexplicable.
Ji Xi silently turned off the chat interface and walked to the bathroom with a cold face. She moved her hand under the sensor faucet, and the water rushed out, rushing over the back of her hand, leaving a small bubble, which was fleeting.
At this moment, she received a text message from Qiao Zhiyu: “I feel uncomfortable today? I just saw you look so bad.”
Concerned again.
Ji Xi replied: “No, it may be a little tired.”
Qiao Zhiyu immediately sent an article: “Working overtime every day these days, remember to take a good rest tomorrow.”
Ji Xi pinched the phone and stared at the words on the screen. So the friendship between a woman and a woman can really be as close as a couple? She lowered her head and bit her lip, not long before she knew that Joe was always joking with her, and she was thinking so much…
Don’t think about it anymore.
It was normal for her to fall in love and date other people. Besides, Xiao Che looked much stronger than Xu Sheng, and she was indeed suitable for her.
Ji hoped to see herself in the mirror, thinking a lot, she took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, but then she realized—
It is a difficult thing to deceive people.
She was still uncomfortable and panicked.
And it cannot be controlled.
This feeling is too bad.
The door of the compartment behind him opened, and Ji Xi looked through the mirror and saw Meng Jing come out.
After seeing Ji Xi, Meng Jing lowered her head and dodged, not wanting her acquaintances to see her embarrassed.
But Ji Xi still saw it, because Meng Jing’s eyes were red and the signs of crying were too obvious.
Two people with low air pressure are standing opposite each other, and it seems that the atmosphere in the bathroom is also particularly low.
Meng Jing walked to the sink and washed her hands.
Ji Xi saw that her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and did not ask her why she was crying. Instead, he took two tissues from the side and handed them over.
“Thank you.” After crying, Meng Jing’s voice was softer than usual.
“You’re welcome.” Ji Xi guessed that she should still need to relax in the bathroom, and it is inconvenient to bother herself, so she said: “I’ll go back to the office first.”
Meng Jing smiled: “Yeah.”
Ji Xi worked overtime until very late today. As soon as his work efficiency decreases, he can only increase the duration. When she returned to the apartment, it was already eleven o’clock, and the air conditioner had not been turned on as soon as she entered the house, and she was so bored.
Go to the balcony and open the window. After the night wind blew into the house, the air was much more relaxed.
In the evening, Ji Xi lay on the bed for a long time without falling asleep. She couldn’t understand her emotions. Why did she have such a big reaction when she heard that Qiao Zhiyu was with others? Especially when I think of the scene of Qiao Zhiyu kissing someone…
In the second half of the night, Ji Xi coughed a bit badly, and woke up once, making her throat very uncomfortable. When I got up the next day, instead of getting better, my throat became more serious. The whole swelled up and I felt painful when swallowing.
Lying on her back on the bed, Ji Xi quietly looked at the ceiling for a while, her head was dizzy, she touched her forehead, it was very hot, maybe fever.
The reason for malnutrition is that Ji Xi’s resistance is not very good. She often has a small fever and a cold. She doesn’t particularly care about it. Drink some water and get a good night’s sleep.
It’s a bit serious this time. I should buy some medicine last night.
Thinking that Qiao Qing would come to class in the afternoon, Ji Xi touched her phone and sent a WeChat message to Qiao Zhiyu, saying that she was not feeling well today and wanted to take time off for class in the afternoon.
Not long after the WeChat was sent, Ji Xi’s cell phone rang, and the caller ID showed: Mr. Qiao.
Seeing Qiao Zhiyu’s phone call, Ji Xi didn’t answer it for a long time. She asked for leave today, but she actually wanted to avoid meeting Qiao Zhiyu.
“Mr. Joe, I want to take a leave of absence.”
“Where is it uncomfortable?” Qiao Zhiyu asked directly, seeing Ji Xi not in good shape yesterday.
Hearing this gentle and caring voice, Ji Xi didn’t dare to think about it anymore. She just said, “It’s nothing.”
“Nothing makes me uncomfortable?” Qiao Zhiyu listened to Ji Xi’s mouth, and said: “I’ll come over now.”
“No.” Ji Xi hurriedly stopped. “It’s just that my throat is inflamed. I can just buy some medicine.”
“I don’t worry about you.” Qiao Zhiyu was worried and said, “Wait for me, I’ll come over right away.”
She has never been cared so much. Ji Xi listened to Wuwei Chen Zai and wanted to make Qiao Zhiyu be so good to her, otherwise, she really couldn’t help but like it…
