Surrender At a Glance - Chapter 34
The first contradiction between Yi Yan and Jiang Xiche was resolved in this way, and the relationship between the two became harmonious and harmonious, and even because of certain things they had done, the relationship had been invisibly improved.
In mid-December, the sea city officially entered winter, and the large city of Nuo often seemed to be covered with a layer of fog during the day, like a human heart, which is difficult to understand.
Jiang Xiche has been on a business trip in the past few days. Yi Yan is not used to sleeping alone at night. Even if the heating is turned on in the house, she still feels that the bed is not warm enough, and she misses Jiang Xiche’s warm embrace.
During the lunch break that day, Yi Yan received Fang Shushu’s WeChat. The other party said that she was in a bad mood and wanted to ask her to go to the hot spring at night.
Since her best friend is in a bad mood, Yi Yan will naturally not refuse her invitation. In addition, she thinks that the hot spring is also good in such a cold day, so she agreed without saying a word.
After finishing chatting with Fang Shushu, Yi Yan returned to the desktop of the mobile phone and accidentally saw the word temperature on it, Haishi is 6℃ today.
She tapped her fingertips, opened the weather software a moment later and searched for a city on it.
The city where Jiang Xiche was traveling was 4 degrees below zero, and it showed snow.
Yi Yan began to sink into thought, hesitating whether to remind Jiang Xiche to wear more clothes to avoid catching a cold.
But she quickly gave up the idea, threw the phone back on the table, leaned back, pulled up the down jacket on her body, and closed her eyes to sleep.
She wondered, so many Tianjiang Xi Che had never contacted her, why should she care about him?
However, not long after the lunch break, Jiang Xiche called Yi Yan. Yi Yan was quite curious and a little excited, and soon answered, opening his mouth and mocking: “Oh, President Jiang, do you remember your wife?”
The opposite Jiang Xiche had just come out of the airport, and the cold wind was whistling in his ears, and the hem of the dark coat was swayed. The weather was very cold, but I could hear her complaining, and my heart warmed.
He responded to her as he walked to the commercial car, and a faint white mist floated between his words, “I’m in the sea.”
“Huh?” Yi Yan frowned in confusion, glanced at the calendar card on the table, and made sure that he had remembered the date correctly, “Really? Didn’t you come back the day after tomorrow?”
“The speed up is over. Will you eat out with me tonight? I’ll pick you up.”
“At night?” Yi Yan first noticed not why Jiang Xiche asked her to have dinner at night, but thought of the time conflict, “No, I made an appointment with Shu Shu to go to the hot spring at night.”
“when to go?”
“Go right after get off work and eat there by the way.”
Jiang Xiche was silent for a long time before he slowly said, “Well, pay attention to safety and go home early.”
“understood.”
Yi Yan hung up the phone and continued to tap on the computer, unconsciously humming a little song, Jiang Xiche came back, making her a little happy, and finally don’t have to be alone at night.
Half an hour before leaving get off work, Yi Yan received messages from Fang Shushu and Su Zhi at the same time, which disrupted her original plan.
Fang Shushu temporarily changed her mind and said that she was forced to attend a banquet at night and could not go to the hot springs with her.
And Su Zhi said that he intends to cooperate with her studio, and would like to invite her out for dinner and meet in detail.
So Yi Yan’s plan to go to the hot springs at night turned into going out to have a meal with Su Zhi to discuss cooperation.
She had an appointment with Su Zhi to meet in a restaurant, and drove there directly after work. By then, Su Zhi had already booked a table and was waiting for her.
The main content of this conversation is that Su Zhi wants to join Yi Yan’s studio, and he doesn’t want to open his own studio anymore.
The reason is that he thinks it will be more difficult to start a new studio, and Yiyan’s has already started, but the scope is limited to women’s clothing brands. If he joins, it can help her expand the field and achieve a win-win situation.
The two talked while eating, so that the dinner took more than an hour to end.
Outside the restaurant is a cross street, many pedestrians and vehicles pass through it, and some parked on the side of the road.
Yi Yan and Su Zhi came out of the restaurant talking and laughing. As soon as they walked out the door, a cold wind swept over from the side, and most of Yi Yan’s loose hair was blown to his face.
She raised her hand and lifted it away. Unexpectedly, some of it got stuck on the eardrop, and she couldn’t get it for a while, so she stopped to get it.
Su Zhi saw it and went to help her carefully separate.
This scene happened to be seen by Xu Fei, who came out of the opposite shop. She only felt that the two were acting ambiguous, so she took out her phone and took a photo.
Jiang’s.
The president’s office is brightly lit.
Sitting at his desk, Jiang Xiche was still busy in the workplace.
The black phone lay quietly on one side, and suddenly the screen lit up, accompanied by a short ringing tone.
Jiang Xiche pulled his hand over and saw Xu Fei’s WeChat pop up on the screen, the content was [picture].
He didn’t intend to pay attention to it so fast, but when he was about to let go of the phone, Xu Fei’s message came again. This time it was a string of text. He almost instantly caught the keyword eye-Yi Yan.
Under curiosity, he immediately unlocked it.
Xu Fei: [I just saw Yi Yan, I thought she was accompanying you out for dinner, but after a closer look, I realized that it was not. 】
Jiang Xiche frowned and clicked on the picture she sent.
What he saw was Yi Yan and Su Zhi standing at the entrance of the restaurant. Su Zhi lowered his head to help Yi Yan get earrings. The two of them had a lot of smiles on their faces.
Didn’t she say to go to the hot spring with her girlfriend?
The marks between Jiang Xiche’s eyebrows deepened, and he stared at the photos for a long time before exiting, replying to Xu Fei.
[Tell you that I am on a business trip. 】
Xu Fei responded in seconds: [I will forget it for a while, I bought you a gift. I wanted to give it to you personally, but now I can only send it to you. 】
Jiang Xiche: [No need, thank you. 】
After he replied, he ignored Xu Fei and put down his phone to continue reading the document, but his heart could no longer calm down, and his mind was full of the picture sent by Xu Fei.
If you don’t go to the hot springs, why would you rather eat with Su Zhi than with him?
…
Yi Yan and Su Zhi went home after parting and started discussing cooperation with Su Zhi with the studio designer.
At half past nine, Jiang Xiche arrived home. At that time, Yi Yan was in her pajamas watching variety shows in the living room, giggling.
Hearing the movement of the door opening, Yi Yan turned his head and saw Jiang Xiche’s extremely cold face.
But Yi Yan has long been accustomed to seeing such a face, and didn’t feel wrong at all. Instead, she waved at him excitedly, “Jiang Xiche, you can count as coming back. Come here, I will tell you something.”
“I don’t need to say anything that is not important.” Jiang Xiche simply glanced over her and went straight to the stairs, “I’m tired, go up and take a bath.”
Yi Yan was stunned for a moment, but didn’t think much about it. It seemed to be tiring to see him like that, so she withdrew her hand, “Oh, then you go.”
Jiang Xiche went back to the room to take a bath, and Yi Yan continued to watch TV downstairs. Forty minutes had passed after watching.
She hurriedly turned off the light and turned off the TV, trotting upstairs on a cotton drag, and ran back to the room.
In the room, Jiang Xiche was lying halfway on the bed looking at the computer. Yi Yan jumped directly onto the bed, crawled twice and leaned against him, and said with a smile, “Jiang Xiche, I have good news to tell you.”
Jiang Xiche stared at the computer screen silently, without giving her a look.
Yi Yan thought he was a little weird, his smile stiffened a lot, and looked at the computer screen, “What are you looking at so seriously?”
“Financial News.” Jiang Xiche’s voice was cold.
“Oh.” Yi Yan nodded, not interested in what he saw, and when he saw that he was taking care of himself, she became excited again, “I tell you, Su Zhi, that is my senior, he is going to join my studio. ”
Jiang Xiche’s fingers sliding on the computer stopped suddenly, turned his head to look at her, his eyes were cold, “What’s the reason?”
Yi Yan told Jiang Xiche the reasons Su Zhi told her, and then added: “Su Zhi has studied abroad for a few years, and his accomplishments are much deeper than mine. I have seen his works, which are very distinctive. Joining our studio, we will definitely flourish.”
“Other than that, what other reason?”
“It’s also because we are alumni, good friends.”
“So you agreed?”
“Of course I agree. If he joins, the designers in our studio will be one level higher.”
Jiang Xiche stared at her speechlessly for a long while, the white light added a layer of chill on his white face, and slowly said, “What if I say I don’t agree?”
“You don’t agree?” Yi Yan frowned and looked at him inexplicably. “It’s not your company. It’s your turn to disagree?”
Jiang Xiche withdrew his gaze from her indifferently, “Well, so you don’t have to tell me that it has nothing to do with me, and I am not interested.”
“You…” Yi Yan was immediately annoyed by him, sitting upright, eyes staring, “What’s the matter with you? As soon as I come back, my face looks like ice, I offend you?”
Jiang Xiche was silent.
Yi Yan snorted angrily, lifted the quilt to cover his lower body, and played with the phone angrily.
She turned on the video software to watch the video, deliberately increased the volume of the phone, and clicked on the handsome guy column to ease her mood and also wanted to annoy Jiang Xiche.
Jiang Xiche was so noisy with the news on her mobile phone that she couldn’t see the news. He looked sideways at her mobile phone and realized that she was actually watching a handsome guy dancing his hip dance.
What’s even more exaggerated is that she kept double-clicking on the video, and red hearts popped up where she clicked.
Then she stepped back and flipped through and clicked into another video.
There is also a young man in the video. He first scratched his head in front of the camera for a while and then suddenly came close to the camera and lifted his shirt to reveal the abdominal muscles inside.
Yi Yan likes it crazy again, and read it again, and it pauses when it comes to the shot of the abdominal muscles, and then she smiles silently and laughs!
Jiang Xiche’s jaw line was stretched, and his eyebrows tightened. “It looks good?”
“It’s better than you!” Yi Yan immediately stopped smiling, rolled his eyes angrily, and continued to flip through the video.
Jiang Xiche stretched out his hand and took away her mobile phone.
“What are you doing? Why are you so annoying?” Yi Yan glared at him, complained dissatisfiedly, and even kicked him.
Jiang Xiche let go of the phone and the computer one by one, and when he turned around, he slammed the back of Yi Yan’s head, his lips pressed quickly against her.
Yi Yan was immediately dumbfounded, the staring boss wanted to push him away, but his head was firmly held on him, and he couldn’t move at all.
…
Jiang Xiche started without any prelude this time.
His speed is faster than before, his strength is stronger than before, his expression is smelly than before, as if he is venting something.
This was not the case for the few previous times, Yi Yan couldn’t adapt to his sudden and ungentle occupation, and she shed tears.
But no matter how she begged him to scold him, he didn’t have the right to hear, at best he just sealed her mouth and kept her from speaking.
The lasting mingling ended with the man’s muffled hum, but he hadn’t come out yet and stopped to rest on her.
Yi Yan was able to exhale a few breaths, her eyelashes were wet, there were tear marks on the corners of her eyes, and her lips were red with her own bites.
She slowed down for a while, lowered her eyes to watch Jiang Xiche curse in black, “Jiang Xiche, you bastard! What happened to you?”
Jiang Xiche remained motionless, his nose exhaled a hot breath and hit her skin. After a long silence, he said solemnly, “Where are you going to soak in the hot spring tonight?”
Yi Yan really suspected that Jiang Xiche had a problem in his mind, so he didn’t answer other people’s questions and asked them back.
She was aggrieved and annoyed and said: “I didn’t go to the hot springs. If Shu Shu has something to do, we won’t go.”
Jiang Xiche’s closed eyes slowly opened, and they were extremely deep and dark, “Then where did you go.”
“I went out to talk to Su Zhi for cooperation. That’s the news I just told you that you are not interested in.”
Jiang Xiche’s dull heart suddenly relaxed, and he asked, “Where can I talk about cooperation?”
“Good Food Restaurant, we had dinner together.” Yi Yan told him five to one, although he didn’t know why he asked her these questions.
She told herself clearly in this way that Jiang Xiche was more comfortable, but he was still not at ease. He stretched a hand under her neck, as if preparing something.
“Tell me about your evaluation of Su Zhi.”
“why?”
“Want to hear.”
“Then you apologize to me first.” Yi Yan became arrogant. She never thought that the person on her suddenly moved, as if threatening her. She was instantly scared and shouted, “No! I said!”
Jiang Xiche stopped, turned his face, buried in her neck, and said dumbly, “Good.”
Yi Yan was trembling all over by his word. She thought about it seriously and said without half pretense: “Su Zhi is patient and polite, has no airs, and has a good temper. Generally, he will help when others ask for help. I also take care of people better, just like a big brother.”
Jiang Xiche: “What does he mean to you?”
“My friend, but soon he will be a partner, he can make me make more money, hehe.” Thinking of the future career, Yi Yan couldn’t help grinning.
Her words sounded very natural and sincere, and there was no trace of lying.
Jiang Xiche’s emotions that had been suppressed for most of the day were finally released, but a sense of guilt spontaneously grew in his heart.
He should believe that she is right, she herself is a person who hates betrayal, how could she betray him.
She just treated Su Zhi as a senior and friend. She was already his wife. She had principles, and Su Zhi could not threaten him.
Thinking of his “crime” just now, Jiang Xiche stood up half-length, wiped her eyes with one hand, and whispered, “Sorry, I hurt you just now.”
“What’s the use of sorry now!” Yi Yan looked at him irritably, “You are really weird tonight, what’s the matter?”
“not in a good mood.”
“Why are you in a bad mood?”
“Something happened at work.”
Yi Yan immediately laughed angrily, pushed him unceremoniously, and said fiercely: “Are you still a human? Are you in a bad mood? You take me out of my temper? I make you feel bad?”
“I’m sorry.” Jiang Xiche buried his head again, and moved again, but this time he was very gentle.
Yi Yan wanted to cry without tears, and nudged him with a soft and weak hand, “Jiang Xiche, you are enough.”
He didn’t follow, kissed her earlobe and said, “Make up for you.”
