    ?

    His laughter was pleasant to hear, but Xiaoshi was terrified when he heard it. He was afraid of alarming Zhou Shaoting, and wished he could pounce on him and cover his mouth.

    Cheng Yiyuan propped his chin with his hands, and asked with a smile: "Why, is he so scary?"

    Xiaoshi's cheeks were flushed, speechless, she glanced in the direction of the president's office from time to time, ready to deal with possible embarrassing situations at any time.

    However, there has been no movement.

    Cheng Yiyuan stopped his laughter, but there was still a ready smile between his brows and eyes, he shook his head and said, "You are too humorous, Xiao Shi, our President has no time to pay attention to such a trivial matter! Besides, he is not here at all.  I went out with Zhong Kai."

    Hearing this, Xiao Shi was truly relieved, and his whole body stretched out.

    Cheng Yiyuan saw that she was still standing still, so he couldn't help urging: "Don't dawdle, the sun is just right now. If your boss Zhong Kai has any objections, I will stand up." After finishing speaking, he showed a bright smile again, which made people  There is no way to refuse.

    Because it was working hours, Xiaoshi insisted on not going far away. Cheng Yiyuan admired Cheng Yiyuan so much that she had no choice but to follow her to the nearest starry sky cafe on the second floor of the building.

    The huge dome ceiling is covered with small blue lights, like a bright and distant sky, and the chic wooden tables are sparsely arranged along the hollow patio, giving people ample space.

    There are quite a few people who come here for afternoon tea, most of them are business people in formal attire, sitting around the table in twos and threes, negotiating in low voice with serious expressions.

    Xiao Shi looked around, and finally set her eyes on the coffee in front of her, and slowly stirred it with a small spoon, and asked casually: "I just saw that there are a lot of pencils on your desk, and it's very busy now.  Few people use pencils anymore."

    Cheng Yiyuan smiled, looked at her and said, "You are quite careful."

    "If it is not particularly necessary, I like to use a pencil. If I make a mistake, I can erase it. There is no trace, just like nothing was missed. It is still perfect."

    After Cheng Yiyuan finished speaking, he took a sip of coffee from his cup, tasted it, and gave his evaluation: "It's not bad, but it's still far from the one I want to take you to. It's a pity you don't go."

    Xiao Shi smiled and said, "Drinking coffee is not for coffee, but for chatting."

    Cheng Yiyuan nodded in agreement, "That makes sense!" He paused, then suddenly changed into an innocent tone and said, "But I invited you to dinner on the weekend, but you justified that you didn't have an appetite and refused to come outto eat  It's not for food, it's not for reminiscing about the past, you are too disrespectful to your old colleague!"

    Xiao Shi was choked speechless by his words, she dared to think that this man was setting her a trap!

    In fact, it's not that she didn't give him face, but that her father was discharged from the hospital on weekends. She was too busy and had no time, and her father was going back to Yongde. She wanted to spend more time with the old man, and she had no other thoughts.  But she didn't intend to tell Cheng Yiyuan about these private matters, lest he make a fuss, she never liked to cause trouble for others.

    So, Xiao Shi avoided the seriousness and said lightly: "It's nothing, I'm lazy on weekends and don't want to come out."

    "Okay then," Cheng Yiyuan smiled meaningfully, "Didn't you say that your boyfriend has gone to Japan, when will he come back? Let's get together."

    Xiao Shi just picked up the coffee cup to drink, when he heard his question, his hands shook, and a few drops of coffee spilled out.  She hurriedly put down the cup again, took out a tissue to wipe the stain, and replied in a low voice: "It may take more than half a year, I'm not sure."

    "So long?" Cheng Yiyuan made a regretful expression, was silent for a moment, then slowly leaned over, carefully studied the expression on the girl's face, and asked tentatively: "Why, you seem unhappy when you mention him, last time  That's right. Could it be that you are hiding it and don't want me to see it?"

    Xiao Shi sighed softly, and she recalled what Kang Ning said before leaving¡ª"We should all calm down and think about whether this relationship is necessary to continue If there is nothing special, then don't  Contact again."

    With such a blunt and decisive attitude, there has been no news until now. When he comes back, he may have drawn a clear line with her.  The world is changing, who can say for sure?

    Thinking of this, Xiao Shi's eyes drifted a little, and finally fell on Cheng Yiyuan's face, only to be refocused by his inquisitive expression.

    She pressed the center of her eyebrows with her fingers, and didn't want to hesitate, she simply said frankly: "Before he left, we had a little awkward relationship and we haven't been in touch. So, it's not that I don't want you to see him, but I don't want you to see him."  I can still see him."

    After hearing this, Cheng Yiyuan was visibly stunned for a moment, then folded his arms and leaned against the back of the chair, as if he was thinking about something.  Suddenly, he jerkedHe straightened his body, exaggeratedly supported his drooping forehead hair, and asked Xiao Shi with a handsome look: "So, I still have a chance?"

    Before a sip of hot coffee could cool down in her mouth, it slid down the esophagus violently. Xiao Shi was choked and frowned. She pinched her throat with her hand and looked at the man in front of her suspiciously.

    His smile is still the same as before, a bit cynical, but clean and sincere, making it hard to tell the truth from the fake.

    Xiao Shi shrank back, pretending to be disgusted and said, "Don't scare me."

    Although it was meant to be a joke, her soft eyes had begun to reveal a faint resistance, as if many tiny thorns had grown out, guarding against all possible dangers that might invade.

    Cheng Yiyuan stared at her for two seconds, then suddenly smiled so much that he couldn't control it, pointed at her with his finger and said, "Look at you, you can't take a joke! This is exactly the same as when I was a child."

    Xiaoshi's smile was a little stiff, and the atmosphere was awkward for a while.  Seeing this, Cheng Yiyuan hurriedly laughed and said, "I found that every time we chatted together, I was the one who asked you. You never asked me anything. It seems that you don't care about your classmates."

    Xiaoshi's thinking was a little short-circuited for a moment, but she knew that she was not indifferent to her childhood partner, but she couldn't ask.

    The reason why the ordinary "Wang Hongyuan" in the past became the famous "Cheng Yiyuan" is that his mother divorced his father for some reason¡ªhope it wasn't because of money, and remarried to a famous Chinese businessman in the United States.  Cheng Yongsheng.

    At the welcome dinner that day, Xiao Shi could tell that Cheng Yiyuan didn't want people to know these secrets, so she kept avoiding such topics deliberately and didn't ask about them.

    Unexpectedly, she was so obedient and understanding that she was criticized by others.

    Xiao Shi raised her eyebrows and said irrelevantly: "I don't need to ask to know that your years must be the history of the struggle of a brat to grow into a rich and handsome boy."

    "I think the bear boy is pretty good," Cheng Yiyuan said with a smile, "If I write a book about my experience in the past few years, it may be an inspirational novel to others, but to me, it is full of black and white.  Humorous cold joke"

    He shook his head and chuckled twice, with a cynical mockery, and suddenly looked up at Xiaoshi, put on a refreshed expression and said, "I'm going back to Yunnan soon, do you have anything you want to bring?"

    "You want to go back to Yongde?" Xiaoshi was surprised.

    "Yes, go see my grandma."

    His grandma has passed away for many years, and Xiaoshi's mood has also dropped. He said lightly: "I don't want anything. In fact, I also want to go back and have a look. Although I have been away from Yongde for ten years, I still feel homesick."

    Cheng Yiyuan said straightforwardly: "It's easy, I'll go and tell Zhong Kai that I'll give you a few days off."

    Xiao Shi thought about it for a while, but still declined: "Forget it, I just asked for a few days of sick leave, let's talk about it later."

    "You are too serious." After Cheng Yiyuan finished speaking, he did not continue to persuade her.  Her earnestness has been like this since she was a child, and Cheng Yiyuan knew that what he said was in vain.

    The sunlight poured down from the patio like a light golden veil.  The girl was sitting in front of the veil, and the soft light hit her side face, outlining clear eyebrows and thick eyelashes, as delicate as if stitched by stitches.

    Cheng Yiyuan's eyes finally fixed on her wrist holding the coffee cup, and he couldn't help but silently said in his heart: Xiao, Shi.

    In my memory, she has always been like this, she is really as clear and transparent as the dawn mountain spring, her innocent eyes are extraordinarily bright, and her white hands reveal a delicate wrist

    At this time, she looked calm and at ease, but under that indifferent appearance, it seemed that something was being suppressed, struggling, unable to escape.

    This made Cheng Yiyuan want to explore and care, even if everything was just his own illusion.

    On the last weekend before Xiaoshi's father went back to his hometown, Xiaoshi called Han Dong and Xuemei to the house for dinner. It was so crowded, so he practiced it for his father.  Secondly, she has been thinking about what she said to the two at the bakery that day - "there will be a chance to have dinner together next time", and she doesn't want her words to become a dishonest politeness.

    As soon as Han Dong came, he occupied the kitchen, frying and frying like a fish in water.  How could he not be bothered?  Next to him are two handsome girls, Xiaoshi and Xuemei, who are helping him. The chef's salary is not ordinary.

    After more than a month of careful recuperation, Yan Yueming recovered well, with a rosy face and a clear look.  At this moment, he is happily sitting on the sofa in the living room watching the news broadcast.

    Han Dong put the fish into the frying pan, touched Xiao Shi who was beside him, and said, "Don't worry about it, go and accompany Uncle Uncle, as long as I'm here."

    Xiaoshi smiled, "It's okay, isn't it going to be better soon?"

    How can there be any reason for the host to chat and drink tea in a big way, leaving the guests in the kitchen?

    Xuemei stole a glance at the two of them, and then began to murmur in her heart: She is really thinking of her everywhere

    The dishes were served one after another, and Xiaoshi was still cleaning up the kitchen.  At this time, the doorbell rang, and Guo Xuemei, who was closest to the door, jumped to open the door.

    However, when she opened the door, everyone was shocked!  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com)?I'm fine here.  "

    Xiaoshi smiled, "It's okay, isn't it going to be better soon?"
