Chapter 83 Are you willing to come back?
"Nian!" Xu Meiyi bit her lip in grievance, her beautiful eyes filled with mist, "Is it because of Miss Qu, right? You were worried that she and I would struggle, so, you
Send me away? However, I really like this job and the atmosphere of the company, and I like all my colleagues in the company very much. Nian, you understand me. I will not argue with people randomly.
You trust me and don’t send me to another company, okay?”
Lian Munian frowned, "Xiao You, it's your first time to work. In fact, every environment has its advantages and disadvantages. You just have less exposure. When you have certain social experience, you will find that
In fact, it’s the same no matter where you go.”
Xu Meiyi said nothing, just looked at Lian Munian, staring at him closely, with undisguised accusations in her eyes.
Even Munian didn't say anything and let her watch.
Xu Meiyi smiled bitterly, feeling very unhappy that Lian Munian had kicked her out of the company for Qu Qianxi.
She knew that he was lonely and she and Qu Qianxi would not get into arguments when they were together. It was necessary to leave alone, but why was she the one who left and not Qu Qianxi?
She could also see that Lian Munian was determined.
He wanted her to leave, but just because of this, she felt very uncomfortable, and the sourness in her heart almost buried her.
He sighed and coaxed softly, "Xiaoyou, be obedient and I will help you find a better job, okay?"
"Nian, when we met once, it was just a small disagreement. Don't worry, there won't be any dispute between us. As Miss Qu said, there is no source of dispute between us at all, so why should there be a dispute?
Moreover, although she is your wife now, to be honest, I still like her very much and hope to make friends with her."
Her words not only did not relax his frown, but instead made him frown even tighter.
His thin lips were pursed in displeasure and he said nothing.
Nothing constituted the source of their quarrel? Wasn't he?
only……
Thinking of Qu Qianxi's attitude, his face was gloomy, as if a storm was about to come, and his face was gloomy, "Xiaoyou, stop worrying about making friends. I don't think she has this attitude."
When it came to making friends, he thought it was impossible. Qu Qianxi made no secret of her dislike of Xu Meiyi, so how could she make friends with her?
Xu Meiyi frowned, "You don't have to worry about this. There may have been some misunderstandings between us before. As long as the misunderstandings are resolved, everything will be fine. And on the first day of work today, Miss Qu asked me to participate directly. Her attitude was very friendly.
It’s not like what you said.”
Lian Munian was silent. Although what Xu Meiyi said seemed to make sense, he didn't believe it.
"Xiaoyou, don't think about things too simply. Qu Qianxi is not as easy to get along with as you think." It's not that he suspects Xu Meiyi of lying, but he doesn't believe that Qu Qianxi would think what Xu Meiyi said.
She was easy to get along with. It could be said that he had never seen anyone else look good on her except Cheng Zhanxuan.
This knowledge made his handsome face tighten even more and his thin lips pursed.
And he was also worried that Xu Meiyi would suffer in the past. She had just stepped out of the society and was not familiar with worldly affairs. She did not understand many ways of the world, could not deal with others, protect herself, and did not know how to flatter.
He had worked with Qu Qianxi before and knew that Qu Qianxi was already a social veteran.
She is worldly, she is tactful, and even though she is indifferent, she can talk nonsense to everyone, and she has become quite comfortable in this circle.
Xu Meiyi felt very uncomfortable when she heard that Lian Munian asked him to leave Yayan Advertising Company again and again. She thought that he was partial to Qu Qianxi, and even thought that he had feelings for her. She felt uncomfortable for a while.
And uneasy.
But now that she heard what he said, her uneasiness was completely gone.
It turned out that he was just worried that she would be bullied by Qu Qianxi because of her innocence.
She raised a sweet smile on her lips, stood up and hugged him from behind, burying her little face in his back, and smelled his masculine scent fascinatedly, "I know you are worried about me, but I can't hide all the time.
If I don't come out behind you and my parents, Nian, don't worry, I will grow up slowly."
…………………………
Qu Qianxi and Ren Xuanman haven't had a meal together for a while.
During the meal, Ren Xuanman looked at her with an ambiguous smile, "How have you been lately? Are you feeling very nourished?"
Qu Qianxi glanced at her, "Where did you come to this conclusion?"
Ren Xuanman's smile became even more ambiguous, she covered her mouth and pointed at Qu Qianxi's snow-white skin exposed in the air, "Hickey, hickey, did you have a very happy nightlife?"
Qu Qianxi blushed, rolled her eyes at her, and quickly tied on the scarf she took off for eating.
When she looked in the mirror this morning, she was also frightened by the purple hickeys on her neck. Fortunately, it was winter, so wearing a scarf was normal. If it were summer, she would not have dared to go out to see anyone.
She had just tied her scarf when a familiar tall figure came across from her.
Cheng Zhanxuan coughed slightly and seemed a little embarrassed, "Um... Qianqian, are you coming to dine here too?"
"Yes." Qu Qianxi's expression was not so good. She glanced at him and said angrily, "Cheng Zhanxuan, is this how you treat me? Something happened and you didn't even get a call?"
"Didn't I just come here to plead guilty? As an adult, you have a lot, so don't worry about me, a villain."
Cheng Zhanxuan laughed a few times and did not tell her that he called her this morning and the person she answered was Lian Munian. However, his mood suddenly became better.
He was originally worried that Lian Munian would restrict her freedom and prevent them from interacting with each other.
Looking at her attitude towards him now, he knew that she might be a little angry because of what happened yesterday, but she didn't blame him.
His heart softened a little, and his eyes looked at her softer.
Qu Qianxi also smiled, raised his eyebrows and pointed at the counter not far away, "Well, seeing that you came in such a timely manner, I forgive you, and I'll leave the payment to you."
"Okay, I'll definitely handle it!" Cheng Zhanxuan rushed to pay the bill.
"Who is he? Your suitor?" Ren Xuanman raised her eyebrows, and she did not miss the special tenderness in Cheng Zhanxuan's eyes.
Qu Qianxi rolled her eyes at her and said angrily, "Friend, don't always think that way."
Ren Xuanman touched her chin but said nothing.
Friends? Your eyes look so soft when you look at them?
Ren Xuanman didn't say much. She checked the time and felt it was almost time. She patted Qu Qianxi on the shoulder and said, "I'm leaving now. Remember to introduce that handsome guy to me next time you have a chance."
Qu Qianxi nodded and watched Ren Xuanman leave. When she looked back, Cheng Zhanxuan had already returned.
Ren Xuanman was here just now, so it was not convenient for Cheng Zhanxuan to talk about those things.
"Qianqian, I'm really sorry about what happened that day. When I saw you at dinner just now, I was hesitant to come over and say hello."
Qu Qianxi raised her eyebrows, "Then why are you here again now?"
Cheng Zhanxuan patted his chest, "Am I the kind of person who gets into trouble and runs away? Even if I run away and turn around, I still have the backbone to forgive anyone."
Qu Qianxi smiled, she naturally understood what he was worried about, but she was embarrassed to say it out.
"I know you are afraid that someone might see it and things will get worse, right?"
"Yes, I, Cheng Zhanxuan, have never been so entangled in my glorious history of more than twenty years."
"As long as we know that we are innocent, and we have a clear conscience, why should we care what they think? If they trust us enough, they will not take these things that have never existed to their hearts at all, and if they really avoid
If you don't see it, doesn't it mean you have a guilty conscience?"
"Are you telling me not to avoid taboos and let everything continue as usual?"
Cheng Zhanxuan smiled, why didn't he understand what she said? It's not difficult to do it. Just trust and be unpredictable. Who knows what others will think of you?
Qu Qianxi admitted generously, "I think I did nothing wrong."
Cheng Zhanxuan didn't speak, his brows furrowed slightly.
But he did something wrong, and the tangle in his heart became even deeper.
Although he is careless, he can clearly see his own heart. Because of this, he cannot say with a clear conscience that I am not wrong like she does.
Perhaps, his intention was not wrong, but the mistake was that he found the wrong person.
Who would have thought that the person he fell in love with for the first time would be his brother's wife? Such a bloody but real thing happened to him. Until now, he even doubted whether the scene yesterday was actually him.
Dreaming.
Qu Qianxi asked the waiter to take away the tableware on the table and changed the topic, "Have you eaten?"
"already eaten."
Qu Qianxi raised her eyebrows, "How about we go out for a walk together?"
Cheng Zhanxuan smiled and nodded, and the two walked out side by side.
They left the hotel, unaware that not far behind them, two pairs of eyes were watching them leave.
Xu Meiyi's eyes flashed with many emotions. She felt the low pressure around her spread. She trembled. She raised her eyes and hesitated to speak. Finally, she said, "Nian... That's not Miss Qu and Zhan Xuan."
?"
Lian Munian pursed his lips, and the darkness in his eyes was gradually covered by a deeper undercurrent, making it impossible for others to detect his emotions at this moment.
When Xu Meiyi was next to him again, she could clearly see that the muscle lines on his face had become colder and tighter.
Xu Meiyi knew that he was angry and filled with anger.
She didn't know what to feel at this moment.
I just want to know why he is angry.
……………………
Qu Qianxi and Cheng Zhanxuan walked for a while, and then went their separate ways.
She was waiting for a call, Lian Munian's call.
He said he would call to check if she was available around eight o'clock.
Cheng Zhanxuan has been away for a while, but the mobile phone in his hand has been silent for a long time.
She didn't go back. She was standing downstairs in Daxia, a shopping mall where the upper class went shopping, wandering slowly and staring at his call.
Time passes unconsciously.
Nancheng is a prosperous city.
It is full of feasting and neon lights, decorating it colorfully, slowly covering Nancheng's most authentic face bit by bit.
Qu Qianxi was at the door of the station, looking at the people coming in and out, as if he hadn't seen them before.
She was waiting. From the crowds of people to the loneliness, from the flashing neon lights to the dark night, the hustle and bustle of the city gradually receded, and the whole city seemed to be falling into a state of sleep.
Her feet were a little numb after standing for too long.
She checked the time and saw it was already early morning.
She pursed her lips, but her face was calm. She didn't call the other side. It wasn't until most of the shops in the commercial building turned off the lights that she slowly moved and drove away.
In this noisy city, there is too much impetuousness, ups and downs, she has seen a lot, but tonight, from beginning to end, her heart is calm, and surprisingly calm, he did not come, she did not
Half displeased.
Some are just lonely.
……………………
When she returned home, the house was completely dark.
She didn't turn on the light, threw off her shoes and walked upstairs.
"came back?"
Suddenly a voice sounded in the darkness.
The room was very quiet, and Qu Qianxi could clearly hear the sound of her breathing. On the contrary, she could also clearly distinguish another layer of meaning contained in his words.
What he meant was: "You're back? Are you finally willing to come back? I thought you wouldn't come back."
She took a few steps back and slowly approached him, "Are you...still asleep?"
As she spoke, she wanted to turn on the light, but he was the first to stop her, "Don't turn on the light!"
Qu Qianxi paused and said nothing. She took back her hand and walked towards the black figure under the faint moonlight.
She gradually walked in. Under the moonlight, the man's tough and sculpture-like silhouette was not clear, but vaguely discernible.
He sat lazily, his deep eyes closely following her footsteps in the darkness.
Thump thump——, she stopped and did not move forward.
Even in the dark, she couldn't even see clearly his outline or his expression, but she could inexplicably feel the tranquility of the heavy rain on him. The air around him had been condensed, as if it had stopped flowing, because she inexplicably felt
Feel the air in your lungs slowly become thinner.
She swallowed her saliva, and her gaze fell on the man inexplicably. Under the moonlight, his dark eyes were like a pool of whirlpools that were constantly rolling and turning. It frightened the viewer, fearing that if he was slightly disrespectful, he would be sucked into the endless whirlpool.
There is no way out of the deep pool.
She looked at him, and he naturally focused all his attention on her.
Sensing her hesitation, he frowned and ordered in a deep voice, "Come here." He patted the place beside him.
Qu Qianxi said nothing, glanced at him, and finally chose to sit down opposite him.
The two looked at each other silently in the darkness.
Qu Qianxi didn't know why he was up so late, let alone the meaning of his move.
She only knew that there was a storm all over his body, especially those sharp needle-like eyes, which made her eyes hurt. She could barely reduce the pain by turning her face away slightly.
After a long, long time, Qu Qianxi no longer knew how much time had passed before he said coldly, "Why don't you speak?"
Qu Qianxi blinked, not knowing why.
She was obviously the one who asked her to come over and sit down. If he had something to do, shouldn't he be the one to speak first?
Lian Munian looked at her, his thin lips slowly pursed on his calm handsome face, which brought a heavy sense of oppression to the people around him.
He squinted his eyes, folded his hands, pulled down his thin lips, and said with a hint of unconcealable gloom in his tone, "Why don't you call me tonight?"
Qu Qianxi paused and frowned, "Didn't you say you called me?" If he didn't call, wouldn't it mean that he was unavailable?
So, he is still here just to ask these questions?
He asked back, his dark eyes looking at her, "If I don't hit you, why can't you hit me?'
"Uh..." Qu Qianxi said nothing. Wasn't she afraid of disturbing him?
He narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Speak!"
Qu Qianxi pursed her lips and looked at him in confusion, "What did you say?" What exactly did he want to know?
His expression was gloomy, "Qu Qianxi, please remember your identity. You are my wife now. You cannot afford to embarrass me."
Qu Qianxi paused and smiled bitterly, "But Lian Munian, except for the family members and a few of your friends, no one knows that I am your wife."
Lian Munian snorted coldly, "Even so, you are still my wife. What did I warn you and you turned around and forgot?"
Qu Qianxi opened her lips, not knowing why for a moment, but she soon guessed the reason, "Did you see me and Xuan together tonight?"
Even Munian didn't say a word, the private enterprise's thin lips said everything.
Qu Qianxi bit her lip, smiled, and raised her eyebrows, "You...could it be that you didn't call me on purpose because of this?"
He calmly looked at her coldly, waiting for her explanation.
Because of her, he could choose to neglect Xu Meiyi, or even eat in a hurry, just to wait for her to buy gifts together.
And what about her?
All she gave him were sarcastic remarks, and she confidently lied to him that the date she was dating was a date with a close friend of the same sex.
In the end, he made an appointment with Cheng Zhanxuan.
He had warned her not to meet Cheng Zhanxuan alone. Not only did she not take his words seriously, she also turned down his invitation to buy gifts for her family and went to see Cheng Zhanxuan.
There was no trace of guilt or hesitation in the way the two of them were laughing.
Especially when she was chatting and laughing with Cheng Zhanxuan, her attitude was completely different from his.
He returned home very early.
His mind was inexplicably confused. He could not control his thoughts, and his mind was occupied by irritability.
He couldn't calm down to work, so he chose to sit in the living room.
He didn't know why he was sitting here, he just felt that sitting here would make his heart feel better.
Whether it was intentional or not, he ignored the real reason why he was sitting here.
Qu Qianxi sighed and held her forehead against a headache. She didn't expect that she only met Cheng Zhanxuan occasionally. How could she meet him by such a coincidence?
She lowered her shoulders and looked at him feebly, "Xuan and I are friends. If we are really as avoidant as you said, then we are guilty. We are pure friends. Have we done anything wrong? I don't think so.
We need to avoid taboos, otherwise it will be a cover-up."
Lian Munian smiled and looked at her sideways, with a glimmer of light in his eyes, "So you told me that you met so late and had a great time talking, so you didn't come back until now after talking?"
Qu Qianxi was startled and said nothing.
Would he believe it if she said that she had been waiting for her for four hours in the commercial building?
She raised her eyelids and said, "I was waiting for your call. I thought you would come over to the commercial street, so after Zhanxuan and I had dinner, I kept waiting for you there, but I didn't expect you didn't come."
The cold depression on Lian Munian's face softened a little after hearing this. His eyes faced the dim moonlight, his handsome face darkened, as sharp and focused as a cheetah, and he seemed to be thinking.
, thinking about whether her words are true or false.
She frowned and said, "I didn't speak. There is no need for me to lie." Perhaps, people will always feel inexplicable fear in the dark. Now, Qu Qianxi lost his usual momentum and weakly pursed his lips to retort.
Lian Munian raised his eyes, tightly locking her unclear face in his eyes. Although the light and moonlight outside were dim, in the silence, her little face was different from the cold face in the past. Now she has a more fragile self.
Oozing between eyebrows.
Vaguely, this feeling is very strong, the soft yet strong beauty is natural and extremely endearing.
Because of what happened between her and Cheng Zhanxuan, her heart had not completely calmed down. Now, he could not suppress the unspeakable surge in his heart.
His deep eyes dimmed, and he stood up quickly. Before she could react, he strode over and pressed her under the sofa.
"Uh-" Qu Qianxi groaned, and she was shocked by his sudden kiss.
His attitude was still as arrogant and strong as ever, without giving her any time to breathe. His thin lips held her delicate lips domineeringly, taking away her breath. He used his lips and tongue together to seduce her to dance with him. He was lingering and lingering.
He swept every moment of her teeth domineeringly, kissing her passionately.
Leaving her delicate and delicious mouth, he couldn't help but place delicate kisses on her upturned nose and eyelids. His big hands held her waist, holding their bodies close to each other.
"Lian Munian, I haven't taken a shower yet. I'm very dirty. Don't you--" Qu Qianxi got a crack in his strong and domineering affection and came to her senses. She had been waiting for him outside for a long time today. The car was coming.
Often, she hasn't taken a shower yet, and there is a lot of dust on her body, and she smells like a car, which makes her feel uncomfortable.
Lian Munian didn't pay much attention to it, as if he hadn't heard it. He smelled it at the tip of his nose and felt the elegant smell that made him want to move. His breathing was messy, and the tip of his tongue was tightly wrapped around her sweetness, slowly and deeply.
Slowly and deeply, he successfully captured all of Qu Qianxi's attention.
In the darkness, with the light behind them, the two of them could not see each other's faces, but the hot body temperature on their bodies was hotter than ever.
Lian Mu young sighed at the wonderful taste and hugged her tightly in his arms.
In the darkness, the two of them forgot the location and the displeasure they had felt not long ago. They kissed so passionately that they were completely absorbed in each other's passion, forgetting everything else.
…………………………
Xu Meiyi only went to work on the second day, but she has already established a good relationship with her colleagues around her.
In the morning, she returned to the office with a paper bag in her hand and placed a cup of hot chocolate in the paper bag on the desk of her colleague Xiaoyan.
Xiaoyan screamed in surprise, "Wow - the hot chocolate is from the one across from our company? It smells so good."
Xu Meiyi maintained her usual sweet smile and innocent eyes, "Yes, do you like it?"
"I like it, but... isn't the food there very expensive?" It's a famous brand store, and not ordinary employees can go there.
"Once or twice, it doesn't matter." Xu Meiyi smiled, but there was a bit of disdain in her eyes. Seeing Xiaoyan squinting her eyes to taste, she took a small step back in disgust. When Xiaoyan opened her eyes, her usual smile returned.
It happened to appear on her face, and she asked pretending to be confused, "Xiaoyan, Director Qu has given us two tasks of our team to do, doesn't she need to participate?"
Xiaoyan smiled with admiration, "Yes, but Director Qu has already received two advertisements in his hands, one from Lianmu Group and Huatian Group. I heard that the Ling Group, a famous jade family, also has an advertisement.
I asked the song director to plan it."
"Really?" The smile on Xu Meiyi's face was a little stiff, and more of an expression of displeasure and inexplicable hostility.
Xiaoyan is a fresh graduate and an assistant to the next designer in the team. She is young and does not know how to read people's faces. She frowned and said, "Xiaoyou, are you feeling uncomfortable? Your face doesn't look good."
Xu Meiyi smiled stiffly, but she still couldn't hide the hard expression on her face, "It's okay. Suddenly my stomach hurts. I should go back and sit down and it should be fine."
Xiaoyan didn't say anything else. She helped her sit back on her desk and got back to work.
After Xiaoyan left, Xu Meiyi's face suddenly darkened and her mouth pursed tightly.
She naturally knew about the Ling Group, and being invited by them to plan advertisements showed that Qu Qianxi's ability in advertising design should not be underestimated.
However, she is confident that she can surpass her.
Before lunch in the afternoon, Xu Meiyi brought food and went to Lian Munian's office.
When Lian Munian saw her, he smiled faintly, but she smiled happily. Without saying hello, she directly arranged the food and pulled him over to eat with her.
During the meal, there was still silence, and Lian Munian's eyebrows were indifferent. It was not until after the meal that he raised his eyebrows and said, "Xiao You, what do you want to say?"
Xu Meiyi gritted her teeth and raised her eyes to observe his words, but Lian Munian showed no expression except for the slight curling of the corners of his mouth. She couldn't guess what he was thinking.
She paused, she was betting on how much importance she held in his heart.
"Nian, I know that your company has recently cooperated with our company, and I thought... can I also participate?"
Lian Munian frowned, he thought she understood that he didn't like to ignore public and private matters, but she made such a request.
Displeased? No.
Happy? Not really.
His brows just furrowed slightly, without rejecting or agreeing, he just asked, "Why?"
Xu Meiyi knew that he didn't like people who didn't distinguish between public and private affairs, and she felt that he seemed unhappy. She hurriedly explained, "Nian, don't get me wrong. I heard that this advertisement is still being planned and has not started production yet, so I want to try it.
Like one plan, compare it with another one to see which one is better..."
Lian Munian looked at Xu Meiyi. After a long time, he said calmly, "Xiaoyou, someone in the company has already arranged this matter. It was planned by Qu Qianxi. It is not convenient for me to interfere."
She never thought that Lian Munian would reject her. In the past, whenever she proposed something, he would not refuse it, even if it was difficult. He would only try his best to meet her expectations.
Chapter completed!
