I Really Don’t Want to Sign a Marriage Agreement with the Big Boss - Chapter 55
At first Sheng Mingzhi just thought the man in front of him was familiar.
Until Shen Ling called out his name, the memory rolled in like a flood.
After graduating from high school, Jiang Bie went abroad.
Although Sheng Mingzhi had few friends, he couldn’t say how much he cherished them.
In some respects his character was a bit of a self-imposed exile, the type of person who would never contact anyone for the rest of his life as long as they didn’t contact him.
Being able to be friends with Shen Ling and Jiang Bie, it all depends on the other two.
Back then, when they went their separate ways after graduation, only Shen Ling still worked hard to keep in touch with him. In addition, they were all in Yunjing, and they were always called out to eat by this woman every three days. Over time, they gradually maintained the close relationship they had in high school.
But Jiangbei is an exception.
Sheng Mingzhi had a good relationship with him when he was in high school.
We have been at the same table for two years, and we often play basketball together, but after Jiang Bie went abroad, he suddenly cut off contact with him as if he disappeared out of thin air.
He got married three years ago, and Jiang Bie didn’t return to China, and he didn’t even send a congratulatory email.
After a long time without contact, Sheng Mingzhi’s impression of him gradually blurred.
Sheng Mingzhi was too lazy to worry about why Jiangbie lost contact after he went abroad.
At this moment, the old man reunited, he just followed Shen Ling and nodded politely to him.
Even a little embarrassing.
Fortunately, only Sheng Mingzhi was embarrassed.
Just after Jiang Bie finished saying “it’s late”, the other students in the box began to answer one by one, insisting that he be punished three times.
Obviously everyone has not been in touch in these years.
But it behaved like I saw it yesterday.
After not seeing him for many years, Jiangbei has not changed much, but his appearance is a little different. Compared with the youthful and immature in high school, after he grows up, he has sharp edges and corners, and he has changed from a boy to a man, and is more mature.
Jiang Bie had two tiger teeth when he laughed, and drank his wine in a roar.
As if he hadn’t noticed Sheng Mingzhi.
Sheng Mingzhi also breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s better to replace it with someone else.
Like this kind of people who had a good time in high school but didn’t get in touch with them later, they don’t know how to deal with this limited friendship that has expired after meeting.
Who knew that just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he realized that he was too happy.
After Jiang Bie drank, he didn’t know whether it was intentional or not, so he took advantage of the situation and sat beside Sheng Mingzhi.
Sheng Mingzhi suddenly became a little stiff, and moved to the side calmly.
Jiang Bie glanced at him and said politely, “Hello, what’s your name? Your surname is Jiang.”
Sheng Mingzhi: “…”
He paused: “I know.”
“Really? I thought you didn’t talk to me, because you forgot what my name was.” Jiang Bie blinked: “So I had to summon the courage to introduce myself again.”
Sheng Mingzhi: “…”
Although when he opened his mouth, he vaguely guessed that Jiang Bie might be doing it on purpose.
Did not expect it to be true.
Compared with his playful and funny personality in high school, he has not changed at all.
Suddenly, the embarrassment of reunion in Sheng Mingzhi’s heart was covered by this little episode, and he immediately regained the familiar way of getting along.
and.
…He’s not so senile enough to forget Jiangbei’s name.
Jiang Bie curled his lips: “Mingzhi, long time no see.”
Long time no see indeed.
It’s been almost five years since we left in a hurry in high school.
The unconnected time seemed to be ignored, and now it is connected without gaps.
Sheng Mingzhi unceremoniously kicked his calf: “You are poisonous.”
What are you pretending to be unfamiliar with?
Neuropathy.
As soon as the topic opened, Sheng Mingzhi found that he and Jiang Bie had a lot to talk about.
More than an hour passed by inadvertently, and the meeting was gradually coming to an end.
During this period, Sheng Mingzhi could only keep looking at his watch because his mobile phone was out of power and turned off.
Time passed minute by minute, and it was almost zero o’clock.
Originally wanted to borrow a power bank, or find a place to charge.
But after thinking about it, I took the initiative to find him, but I couldn’t get over the hurdle in my heart.
Besides, if Lu Jiayan really wants to know his itinerary, it’s not a matter of minutes.
This time has not come yet.
…Lu Jiayan won’t forget his birthday.
That teacher Xiaosheng will definitely kill.jpg
Probably because his absent-mindedness was too obvious, Jiang Bie stopped talking.
Asked, “Are you waiting for someone?”
Sheng Mingzhi was stunned.
Who are you waiting for? Lu Jiayan? !
Ha ha.
Dog men also match?
“No one’s waiting.”
Sheng Mingzhi looked away from the watch.
I was very upset.
But think about it, Lu Jiayan has no interest. It is already thankful that he can remember his own birthday, and do you still expect him to be as fashionable as young people to do some zero-point commemoration?
Sure enough, the demands on him cannot be too high.
Longhu Waterside Pavilion—that is, the mansion for the alumni gatherings of the Affiliated High School.
Across the road, a Bentley had been parked for hours.
Don’t even move the location.
The waiter who greeted the guest looked at it several times, and then looked back.
In the car, the heating was clearly on, but Yao Shen still felt that the temperature had dropped below zero.
Called the second young master, only a mechanical female voice came.
Notify Lu Jiayan that the phone he dialed has been switched off.
The roses placed by the co-pilot were about to freeze because of this suffocating cold field.
Yao Shen observed the boss’s face through the rear-view mirror, only to see Lu Jiayan lowered his eyes, as usual with no expression, and he didn’t know what he was thinking.
His memory suddenly returned to a few hours ago.
The boss booked the restaurant one day in advance, prepared gifts and flowers, and canceled all the itineraries in the afternoon. As a result, he went to the downstairs of Sino-Ocean International in the evening and found out from the assistant that Sheng Mingzhi was going to attend the alumni tonight. Party.
Thinking of this, Yao Shen fell into a cold sweat.
The helper who usually follows Second Young Master never loses the chain, so Sheng Mingzhi immediately reported any news to Lu Jiayan.
As a result, I don’t know why today, at the most critical moment, the chain fell off!
He was afraid that the boss would get so angry that he would get into a row, which would make his year-end bonus, which was not rich, even worse.
After a long while, Lu Jiayan rubbed his eyebrows.
Glancing at the phone, it was half an hour before midnight.
His eyes drifted to the door of Longhu Shuixie, still no one wanted to come out.
On his twenty-third birthday, does Sheng Mingzhi plan to spend it with his old classmates?
Compared with this, there is actually a more irritating conjecture in his heart.
In the end is it with an old classmate, or with an old lover?
Since hanging up Sheng Xu’s phone that day, Lu Jiayan has once again been distracted at work because of his personal affairs with Sheng Mingzhi.
It was even serious enough that he was distracted for a moment during the meeting. A certain high-level executive who reported the work thought it was a problem with his own work.
Not only that, but Sheng Jia’s recent high-level meeting was more serious than usual.
Lu Jiayan was not in a good mood, so all his subordinates were tense, not daring to make any mistakes.
Before that, he really never thought that someone could control his emotions like this.
At 11:30, after everyone had a good time at the alumni party, some people started to fight for the second game.
Shen Ling was not surprised by it.
Sheng Mingzhi was no longer in the mood to continue their stay together.
After a brief greeting, he was ready to take a taxi home.
As soon as he walked out of the Longhu Waterfront, Sheng Mingzhi felt a tap on his shoulder.
When he turned his head, it was Jiang Bie.
The other party glanced at the watch, and suddenly took out a beautifully packaged tote bag like magic.
Hand it to Sheng Mingzhi: “I almost forgot to give it to you.”
Sheng Mingzhi was stunned, and was caught off guard.
Jiang Bie smiled and said, “Happy birthday.”
The bell rang exactly at zero.
Sheng Mingzhi never imagined that on his twenty-third birthday, Jiang Bie would be the first to say happy birthday to him.
Not to say unhappy.
Just a little regret in my heart.
“thanks.”
But unexpectedly, Jiang Bie still remembers his birthday, which is a bit strange.
With his out-of-tune character, he probably doesn’t even remember his own birthday, right?
Seemingly seeing what Sheng Mingzhi was thinking, Jiang Bie didn’t care: “I heard Shen Ling mention it when I came, I bought it on the way, otherwise I’ll come empty-handed on your birthday, I’m so sorry.”
Hearing Jiang Bei’s explanation, Sheng Mingzhi was even more embarrassed.
Help, what was he thinking about just now? !
Could it be that after marrying Lu Jiayan, she became curvy, and everyone seems curvy.
Fortunately, Jiang Bei didn’t see it, so he laughed dryly.
Jiang Bie didn’t care: “That’s right. Did you accidentally delete me when you cleaned up WeChat before? I wanted to wish you a happy birthday on WeChat in advance, but I found out that the message was rejected.”
Sheng Mingzhi: “…”
The level of embarrassment is simply higher.
Fortunately, Jiang didn’t make up for him.
However, Sheng Mingzhi did delete a wave of friends.
When I was in the entertainment industry before, I offended many fans. I don’t know why his WeChat account was picked up, and the number of people who abused him all day long was countless. Later, it became more and more intense, and even the dynamic of the circle of friends was screenshotted, and he simply cleaned up all the things he didn’t know.
It is estimated that Jiang Bie did not make a note, so he accidentally injured the other party.
Jiang Bie took out his mobile phone: “Can I add one more? How can I get in touch later?”
Having said all that, Sheng Mingzhi had no choice but to take out his mobile phone.
After pressing it twice, I remembered that my phone had long since been turned off because it was out of power.
It happened that there was a power bank by the roadside, and he charged it.
As soon as the phone was turned on, before Jiang Bie was added, he was stunned by missed calls and unread messages.
A total of seven missed calls from Lu Jiayan.
Started playing a few hours ago.
There are also more than a dozen unread WeChat messages.
Glancing at it, it was all about asking him when he was free at night.
Sheng Mingzhi’s heart stopped for a second, and his bowels of regret turned green.
I’ve been charging my phone since I knew it!
Sheng Mingzhi hurriedly added Jiangbei’s friend, and then called Lu Jiayan back.
I don’t know if fate was against him on purpose, but after a heavy snowfall in Yunjing in the afternoon, the steps at the entrance of Longhu Waterside Pavilion were frozen. He walked in a hurry, and he didn’t notice his feet slipping when he went down the steps. It happened that Jiangbei was behind him, and he quickly helped him with his eyes and hands.
Sheng Mingzhi was about to thank him, but when he looked up, he saw Lu Jiayan across the road.
The man stood not far or near, just enough to catch the scene in front of him.
It was obvious that he and Jiang Bie were just ordinary old classmates, and the other party just helped him in the time of crisis.
But for some unknown reason, Sheng Mingzhi’s body conditioned reflexes stiffened for a moment, then stood up and distanced himself from Jiang Bie.
Jiang Bie didn’t notice someone on the opposite side, but he probably thought that Sheng Mingzhi’s expression was wrong.
He subconsciously followed Sheng Mingzhi’s line of sight, and then saw Lu Jiayan.
The two of them were just across the road, and they glanced at each other casually.
Jiang Bie smiled and looked back: “Be careful on the road, it’s slippery when it snows.”
He shook his phone: “Let’s go first. Contact me when you’re free.”
In an instant, Sheng Mingzhi and Lu Jiayan were left at the scene.
This is the first time the two have met since the Cold War.
Lu Jiayan’s eyes slowly descended from his face and landed on his hand.
– A nicely packaged gift bag that looks like a birthday present.
Sheng Mingzhi had an inexplicable sense of guilt.
But on second thought, what was he guilty of?
He hasn’t forgiven Lu Jiayan yet?
And he didn’t come out to meet Jiang Bie alone. If Lu Jiayan had come earlier, there would have been people at the gate just now!
This thought flashed by, and Sheng Mingzhi suddenly grasped the point.
Wait, Lu Jiayan must have just arrived, right?
As a result, after seeing a thin layer of snow falling on Lu Jiayan’s shoulders, Sheng Mingzhi gave up this guess.
Especially after the man approached, he could even feel the chill on the other side.
It’s just like.
It has been standing in the cold air for a long time.
Teacher Xiaosheng is a little soft-hearted.
So he finally broke the silence: “When did you come?”
Lu Jiayan said softly, “Seven o’clock.”
The unbelievable thought in my heart came true.
…really came five hours ago.
In an instant, all the anger that Sheng Mingzhi had accumulated was inexplicably dissipated.
Lu Jiayan continued: “I called you, but you didn’t answer.”
Sheng Mingzhi muttered: “My phone is out of power. I only saw it when I turned it on.”
“Even if you wait for me for a long time, that’s what you should.” Sheng Mingzhi said confidently: “Don’t forget what you said before, the divorce is not over, and I’m not ready to forgive you.”
“Yeah. I didn’t forget.” Lu Jiayan said, “It’s okay, you didn’t mean to not answer my call. Anyway, I am willing, I am affectionate.”
…you fucking.
Don’t give me this set.
Teacher Xiaosheng has seen countless miserable routines in the entertainment industry!
Do you think your trick will work for me? !
Deadlocked for ten seconds.
Sheng Mingzhi was defeated.
Alright alright, barely useful!
Especially after seeing Lu Jiayan’s frozen bones.
I seem to feel more like a scumbag.
At this time, Lu Jiayan seemed to be worried that he was cold.
He took off his only coat and put it on Sheng Mingzhi.
Sheng Mingzhi’s stature was originally a circle smaller than him.
Wrapped in his clothes at the moment, covered with the fragrance of plants and trees on his body.
The smells that he brought out from the party that made him unhappy disappeared completely.
It’s like Sheng Mingzhi has become something that belongs to him alone.
Lu Jiayan said, “I wanted to celebrate your birthday at midnight.”
He glanced at his watch: “It’s all over now.”
There was a little grievance in his tone.
The principle that Sheng Mingzhi insisted on for a few seconds was gone in an instant.
He couldn’t help but said, “I don’t care about that.”
It seems that Sheng Mingzhi, who insisted on a sense of ritual a few hours ago, was someone else’s disguise.jpg
Lu Jiayan lowered her peach blossom eyes slightly, and said with her lips curved, “What does Teacher Xiaosheng care about?”
He asked himself and answered, “I don’t care when the time passes, just who I spend with?”
After speaking, he also sighed with emotion: “He loves him so much.”
Sheng Mingzhi: …
Open a dye shop without giving you any color.
Lu Jiayan recently learned some buzzwords from somewhere on the Internet.
When he opened his mouth, Sheng Mingzhi was speechless.
But after getting in the car, looking at the big bouquet of roses that Lu Jiayan had prepared in advance, the little speechless was gone.
Although I don’t know where this old man got such a dirty ceremony, and the roses were bought like that, Sheng Mingzhi still carefully placed the flowers by his side, steadfastly, for fear that he would accidentally press the flowers. it.
Along with the flowers, there is also an exquisite gift box.
Inside the dark blue velvet box, lies a custom silver bracelet.
The initials of Sheng Mingzhi’s letters are engraved on it, and you can’t tell the price just by looking at it, but the things Lu Jiayan gave him have always been expensive. As if he had decided that only such expensive luxury could match him.
Just as Sheng Mingzhi was enjoying the gift quietly, Lu Jiayan’s voice sounded in the quiet carriage.
When I heard it, it was the kind of tone that deliberately pretended to be “it’s okay, I don’t care”.
“Aren’t you going to open it and take a look at it?”
he?
Sheng Mingzhi was stunned.
Soon, he reacted.
“He gave it” in Lu Jiayan’s mouth is probably a gift from Jiang Bie.
Sure enough, he saw everything that happened just now at the gate of Longhu Waterside Pavilion.
But Sheng Mingzhi has nothing to feel guilty about. What’s wrong with sending some gifts between friends.
Besides, Lu Jiayan hasn’t seen Jiangbie before, so he can’t eat Jiangbie’s vinegar, right? Why did you go so early?
The result is unfortunate.
After the gift bag was opened, inside the black high-end velvet box, there was a simple and elegant piece of jewelry – Jiangbie also gave it a silver bracelet.
Lu Jiayan looked down and paused slightly.
At this moment, the vinegar vat he had endured for a long time was overturned, and the unhappy and manic depression rolled in his eyes, which was about to materialize.
