Bringing the baby back to China, the cold CEO becomes a fishing husband

After that night, Xiang Sixia clearly felt that Ji Liang had become more active. He would send her some photos of the food he cooked and chat with her about daily topics. They were very interactive, a frequency that Xiang Sixia liked, but maybe it was because she liked the person she was chatting with.

On the 50th floor of Rongxing Building, in the open space, Xiang Sixia's desk is in a corner near the floor-to-ceiling window.

Melodious music sounded in the headphones, blocking out the noisy keyboard sounds and various noises in the office. His left hand tapped a few times on the hand-painted screen, and his right hand, which was wearing a wristband, used a hand-painted pen to color a small object in the scene. A WeChat message popped up on his phone. It was from Ji Liang.

"Are you free tomorrow night? I'll take you out to eat."

Xiang Sixia's mouth curled up unconsciously, but tomorrow night?

"I've already made an appointment with a friend tomorrow night. Let's make it next time."

"it is good."

She did have an appointment for tomorrow night, but unfortunately, just a few minutes ago, Zhuang Shaoting sent her a message saying that a spot was vacant in a design salon and asked if she was interested. She thought about it and agreed immediately since she did have time.

The speakers of this salon include well-known designers and experts in the industry. In addition to industry personnel and design enthusiasts, participants also include some corporate representatives.

This is a platform for equal communication where participants can showcase themselves and meet more designers and partners, which is also useful for Xiang Sixia.

The salon is located in a cafe on the seventh floor of a hotel. The cafe is a business of the hotel itself and in addition to basic coffee and other beverages, it also provides some desserts and snacks.

Xiang Sixia ate Napoleon in small bites, and when he heard the key points, he picked up a pen and wrote down the contents in a notebook.

"Boss Ji, this is our leisure area." Outside the door, Ji Liang followed the waiter and stood still.

Ji Liang came here at the invitation of the hotel to attend a cooking exchange event hosted by the hotel. Originally, he had no interest in these things. There were several such events every year, and he would not attend them all. But Xiang Sixia was not free tonight, and he had nothing to do. The hotel invited him again and again, so he agreed to come and participate.

Ji Liang looked inside and saw a group of people sitting casually. A middle-aged man was standing in front of a large electronic screen, explaining something vividly.

"What are they doing?"

"Oh, this is a salon going on, for the design industry."

“Design industry?”

Ji Liang was very sensitive to this and immediately thought of Xiang Sixia and her junior. Just as he was about to go in and take a look, he was stopped by a voice.

"Boss Ji, you finally came."

Ji Liang turned his head and nodded at him with a faint smile on his face.

"Old Zheng."

The person who was speaking was an old acquaintance of Ji Liang, the head chef of the hotel, Lao Zheng. Both he and Lao Zheng were senior members of the Nancheng Catering Association, and they often communicated with each other.

Old Zheng walked over while talking, and took his arm and walked to the other side.

"Hurry up, everyone is here. There are two people from out of town too. I heard they are quite capable. I'll introduce you to them."

Ji Liang looked inside again. The distance was about ten meters. All he saw were unfamiliar faces. So he didn't think any more about it. He put aside his speculations and followed Lao Zheng to the venue.

As expected by Ji Liang, the exchange meeting included a live cooking demonstration. The chefs showed their innovative dishes. The two new chefs from other places also showed their specialties, which gave Ji Liang some unexpected surprises. He went up to them to communicate. After the conversation, both sides had some new inspirations and added each other's contact information.

The entire space was filled with voices, the smell of food, and heat. Although the exhaust fan was on, Ji Liang still felt uncomfortable, so he planned to leave the venue and go outside to get some fresh air.

The side door of the venue was near the elevator. Ji Liang thanked the waiter who helped open the door. When he turned around, he saw a familiar figure chatting and laughing with the man next to him as he entered the elevator.

It’s Xia Xia!

Ji Liang walked over quickly but it was too late. The elevator door had already closed and the number showing the floor was jumping down.

Ji Liang immediately pressed the button for another elevator nearby, but looking at the 27th floor displayed on the electronic screen, it was too slow.

The emergency door was opened, and Ji Liang rushed down quickly. All he could think of was the bright smile that Xiang Sixia had just shown to that man. This made Ji Liang increase the strength of his hands that occasionally gripped the handrail.

The seventh floor was not too high or too low, and even though Ji Liang used his fastest speed, it still took him some time.

Rushing out of the security door, Ji Liang adjusted his breathing. He first looked towards the elevator entrance, but there was no sign of Xiang Sixia. He then glanced around the lobby, but there was no sign of him either. Finally, he saw two people chatting happily at the door.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the hotel lights clearly illuminated the expressions of the two people. Xiang Sixia was smiling. No one knew what the man said that made Xiang Sixia show a surprised expression, and then he laughed even more happily.

Xiang Sixia found it very interesting, but the topic had nothing to do with her. It was about another person, Xiang Sixia’s friend—Wang Kelu, the drunk Wang Kelu who got drunk in Luocheng KTV and the one Xiang Sixia left Li Yin at his second brother’s house for.

Xiang Sixia had thought about why Zhuang Shaoting seemed a little too friendly and enthusiastic towards him. If it was just because his mother and her aunt were good friends, then Zhuang Shaoting's proactive help to him was a little too much.

So tonight when she was getting out of the elevator, she couldn't help but ask Zhuang Shaoting in person,

"Why are you helping me so much?"

"That's because..."

Seeing that he was still perfunctory and unwilling to tell the truth, Xiang Sixia interrupted him directly.

"Tell the truth, or I'll leave."

"Okay, okay, don't leave, Senior Sister. I'm telling you."

Zhuang Shaoting grabbed Xiang Sixia who was pretending to leave, then let go, with a shy expression on his face.

"Senior, I like Wang Kelu, I think you can help me."

"Wang Kelu?" Li Yin didn't expect this to be the reason. "My friend Wang Kelu?"

"Well, I know you two are very good friends. I hope you can help me set up a party and say something good for me."

It turned out that when Zhuang Shaoting was a freshman in college, he joined the school's mountaineering club and fell in love with Wang Kelu at first sight. However, Wang Kelu already had a boyfriend at that time, so Zhuang Shaoting had to suppress his love.

During another mountaineering club activity, Zhuang Shaoting and Wang Kelu were assigned to the same group. They needed to use a folding bucket to fetch stream water to cook noodles. The two chatted a lot along the way, and Zhuang Shaoting fell in love with her lively and cheerful side even more.

In this way, Zhuang Shaoting silently liked her for two years.

He was distressed when he learned that Wang Kelu broke up with her boyfriend after graduation, but he was more happy and joyful. But he didn't expect that when he was about to take action, Wang Kelu said to everyone that she didn't want to love anymore.

Zhuang Shaoting just waited foolishly, but later Wang Kelu went to another place for postgraduate entrance examination, and they lost contact.
