Chapter 073 [6000 words](1/2)
"Yufei has been studying economic management and other related studies since she was a child, and she is very smart. She just needs experience. In a few years, Gu will definitely flourish in her hands." Gu Nanxi said calmly.
"Then you are willing to be so restrained? You can't live a good life, but you have to engage in politics! It's been five years! It's been five years and you still haven't gotten over that relationship?! Do you have to be so self-inflicted?"
Qin Muyan put down the paper cup and raised her eyes to look at him. She saw that he was flipping through the documents as if he hadn't heard anything. Knowing that he didn't want to mention it again, he didn't say anything anymore. He turned around and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked out: "Actually,
If you play politics well, it won't matter, but I know that you, Nancy Gu, don't like to be restrained, but now you are willing to live such a regular life every day. Young Master Gu, who was all-powerful in Boston with me back then, was really killed by you!
"
"Have you, Mr. Qin, also restrained your temper and rarely played with women anymore?" Gu Nanxi smiled coldly and noncommittally.
"Those women who can hardly live without perfume and high heels have long been tired of it." Qin Muyan put his hands in his trouser pockets and looked at the building towers in the city center not far away, narrowing his narrow peach blossom eyes:
"After playing for so many years, I'm really tired of it. Now that I think about it, it's time to start a family."
"It seems you are not beyond hope yet."
Qin Muyan stopped talking, and just stood quietly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the prosperity of G City from a distance, and the scene from that year flashed through his mind.
Fifteen-year-old Ji Xinyao was dragged to the basketball court by the nineteen-year-old him, and she insisted on cheering him up with the colorful ball in the hands of the cheerleading girls. There was a heavy rain that afternoon, but the heavy rain did not dampen it.
The enthusiasm of these golfers didn't end until the evening. Xin Yao had been standing by like a little fool imitating the girls on the cheerleading team shaking the colored balls in their hands, but she refused to imitate them and shout the same words.
"Qin Muyan, I love you."
She was drenched in the rain and squatted like a water duck on the side of the basketball court. He hurried over and found that she seemed to be unwell. He also found that she actually had a fever. He picked her up and held her all the way.
When he returned home, that day he put Ji Xinyao in his bedroom and took care of her all night. Seeing her restlessness in her sleep when she had a fever made him worried and regretful. From that time on, he
Only then did she realize that she had liked to bully her since she was a child, dominating her and not letting her play with other boys because she liked her.
So that night, he sat by the bed, looked at her little face that was even redder due to the fever, and couldn't help but kiss her little mouth. At that time, Ji Xinyao was as pure as a piece of white paper, and it must have been her first kiss.
He was as happy as anything at that time, thinking that when Xin Yao grew up, he would marry her home as his wife, love her, love her and protect her. Even if it was bullying, he could only bully her.
she.
That feeling had been treasured in his heart for so many years, until seven years ago he and Xiu Li broke open the door of the shabby warehouse and saw the naked Xin Yao huddled in the corner in fear, almost being raped by a group of old men. He
Furious, he punched her hard a few times, then rushed in and took off his coat to cover her body, but he saw a bit of confusion and panic in her eyes, as if she was scared to death, her red eyes and white body were irritating.
Catching his eyes made the anger in his heart even more intense. If Xiu Li hadn't held him back, he would have killed those people!
Later, after Xin Yao was rescued, he was transferred to the United States to study for a month by his parents. He thought that after returning to China after the Spring Festival, he would confess his love to Xin Yao and marry her directly when Xin Yao turned eighteen.
After leaving the Ji family, he no longer had to be hurt, but what he didn't expect was that when he came back, he would be faced with the disappearance of her and Xiu Li. From then on, there was no trace of her for seven years.
Did she hide her name or go abroad or go somewhere? He tried many ways but couldn't find her. Based on his understanding of her, he knew that she had no money and no one would help her. She had to rely on herself for everything, so he didn't find her at all.
Maybe if she really went abroad, she must be in a corner that he couldn't see, but he just couldn't find her.
Until he came to G City a few days ago and randomly visited a few small companies. When he saw her photo and name on the job board on the wall of the media company, his whole body was almost swollen with the surprise. As a result, that little
The woman seemed to have not forgotten him in these seven years. She was so frightened when she saw his figure outside the door that she ran out...
She is obviously still his little red-faced girl, but she has grown thorns in these seven years that he cannot touch. She no longer needs his protection, and she has grown so strong that she will be hurt by those who hurt her.
Avoid thousands of miles.
The pain at the tip of my tongue is still there...
Qin Muyan raised his hand, stretched out his tongue and touched it again. The pain immediately made him "hiss", and he immediately balled up his hands into fists and glared hatefully in the direction of Fengyu Media Company, which was invisible in the distance.
Damn it, the coercion policy no longer works, what should he do to get her by his side.

***********
Here Ji Xinyao was crouched under the desk, her legs and feet were numb, and her whole body was sore. Qin Muyan didn't seem to be planning to leave. She couldn't hear the sound from below and didn't know what he was doing.
, raised his head and saw Gu Nancy looking down at her at the same time.
She froze, grinned awkwardly, raised her hands and clasped her hands together, waved to him, and kept saying, "Please, please, don't let him see..."
There was a hint of teasing at the corner of his mouth, he raised his eyebrows and looked at her huddled down in discomfort, then he looked away and signed casually on the desk with his hand.
Ji Xinyao just lowered her head when suddenly a piece of A4 was handed to her. She raised her eyes suddenly and saw several powerful pen words on the clean A4: 'Owe me a favor.'
She was ashamed, grabbed the piece of paper, raised her head and glared at him fiercely.
Damn it! Taking advantage of others’ danger to rob someone’s home! He’s just such a villain!
She raised her hand to ask him to lend him a pen. He raised his eyebrows and handed her the delicate pen in his hand. She carefully wrote a line on the paper, and then returned the pen and paper to him in great displeasure.
Gu Nanxi took the paper and pen and lowered her head to glance at the beautiful and neat line of small words on it: 'Just a favor! From now on, I can do anything for you if you ask me! Except murder and arson!'
He smiled, looked down at her serious expression, and without handing the pen and paper back to her, he casually put the piece of paper into the document bag at hand.
"How long do you plan to stay in G City this time?" Gu Nanxi suddenly said.
Ji Xinyao was stunned for a moment, looked up at him, and then realized that he was talking to Qin Muyan.
"Originally I only planned to stay here for a week." Qin Muyan's voice paused: "However, if there is nothing too important in Boston, I will stay for a while longer."
Then, the two of them chatted wordlessly.
From the global economic crisis to the recent turmoil in the business community, to political reforms and domestic economic changes.
Ji Xinyao felt bored, but seeing that Gu Nanxi didn't seem to want to expose her, her vigilance relaxed a lot, she lowered her head and rested her chin on her bent knees.
Although the desk was quite spacious, the place underneath where she could hide was very narrow. She had to press her body tightly against his legs. She half-squinted her eyes at the trouser legs next to her, and her eyelids became heavier and heavier.
Suddenly aware of the weight on his leg, Gu Nanxi lowered her head and saw that the little woman fell asleep like this. She even leaned against his leg and fell asleep like this without knowing it.
"What are you looking at? What's so funny?" Qin Muyan's voice suddenly came over.
Gu Nanxi raised her eyes and looked at him indifferently: "I have fostered a kitten here, and it is sleeping soundly by my legs. Do you want to come and take a look?"
"Hey... you know how to raise a cat? Who would believe it!" Qin Muyan suddenly gave up the plan of walking over to take a look, took back his steps and looked at the time: "Are you busy this afternoon? Come and have a drink with me?"
"I have to go to the Bureau of Land and Resources to handle some things in the afternoon." Gu Nanxi quietly moved her legs slightly to make the "kitten" below sleep more comfortably.
"Okay, you're busy then. I've only arrived in G City for two days and I'm going to look around." After saying that, Qin Muyan raised his hand to straighten his collar and turned around to leave.
Ji Xinyao slept a little deeply this time, her whole little face pressed against a warm place and reluctant to leave. She smacked her lips gently in her sleep and smiled with satisfaction.
Gu Nanxi lowered her eyes and glanced at her sleeping appearance, which was very different from last night, and couldn't help but feel a little funny.
***************************************************
****
There was a faint sound in her ears, and Ji Xinyao opened her eyes suddenly, only to realize that she was sleeping in Nancy Gu's office.
He suddenly sat up and found that he was sleeping on the large sofa again. He looked up at the man on the other side of the desk who was concentrating on the computer screen and quietly put down his feet.
"Are you awake?" Gu Nanxi's voice sounded faintly.
She was stunned and glanced at him, only to see that he didn't even turn his head or look at her, but seemed to be completely aware of her actions.
"Uh... I didn't expect that I would fall asleep... I'm sorry, did it cause any trouble to you..."
The sound of a mouse click came from his side. Finally, he let go of the mouse and sank back into the seat behind him. He looked sideways at her and said calmly: "It doesn't bother me at all. It's just your spit..."
"
Ji Xinyao's face tightened, and she quickly raised her hand to cover her mouth, her eyes full of surprise.
Does she drool while sleeping?!!!
Gu Nanxi looked at her nervous movements, still keeping a straight face.
"Um..." Ji Xinyao didn't believe that she would drool while sleeping, but it was the first time she fell asleep sitting up like this. She thought it might be because of the wrong sleeping posture, so she had abnormal reactions. She must have been extremely embarrassed at that time, so busy.
He laughed, ran to his table, looked down at his pants: "I'm sorry, your clothes weren't stained, right?"
Seeing how easily she took the bait, Gu Nanxi continued to keep a poker face.
Ji Xinyao didn't understand, so she could only stare at him, looking at each other, until a playful smile gradually appeared in his serious eyes, and she suddenly glared at him: "Are you kidding me?"
He raised his eyebrows and spread his hands: "Who would have thought you were so easy to deceive."
Fei Xiaoli accepted it. "I..." Ji Xinyao's mouth twitched: "I just woke up. When a person just wakes up, his brain is completely in a state of panic, and there is no time to think!"
He just smiled, glanced down at the time on his wrist, and asked in a deep voice: "It's almost 6 o'clock, what do you want to eat?"
"It's 6 o'clock?" Ji Xinyao looked at the time in horror, and suddenly wailed: "Oh my god, have I slept for so long? If I desert like this, sooner or later I will be fired by the editor-in-chief!
"
"Does he dare?" He sneered, stood up, picked up the suit jacket on the side and put it in his arms: "Mom rarely eats dinner, so as not to have to face Ms. He's whim of craftsmanship when she goes home, we are here
Eat outside.”
"Are you inviting me?" Ji Xinyao raised her eyes and looked at the man who was a head taller than her.
"Otherwise? You want to invite me? Then I'd be more than willing." He smiled, walked around the desk, picked up the electronic car key and walked out.
"Hey! Why are you like this! I just said that casually. How can I, a small citizen, afford you, the mayor..." Ji Xinyao walked a few steps quickly, keeping up with his steady steps.
People walked out of the office together. Most of the office workers in the city hall had already got off work. The already quiet third floor was even more quiet and a little empty. As I walked in the corridor, my heart trembled inexplicably with the sound of my own footsteps.
Trembling.
