You must marry me!

Sitting in Ying Qi's car, Yu Xiaotao felt a little uncomfortable.

It's really strange, I used to sit in this position, but today I feel that something is wrong.

Thinking back to Ying Qi's hitchhiking before, she was just like her own sister's hitchhiking, looking around, playing music on the stereo, eating snacks in the car, chatting and having fun all the way, and arrived home within a few minutes.

However, the feeling of emptiness after returning home is indeed a bit uncomfortable.

So, when Ying Qi said that she would have a meal before taking her home, Yu Xiaotao followed her into the car by accident.

Forget it, they are all colleagues anyway, so it’s okay to have a meal.

"Director Ying, what shall we eat?"

Yu Xiaotao couldn't stand the silence in the car, so she took the initiative to find a topic.

Ying Qi didn't answer her directly, but gave her a surprised look, and said, "Director Ying? You're all off work, so there's no need to call her that."

Yu Xiaotao's heart was beating wildly. Based on her years of experience in watching idol dramas, this change of name was the first step!

what's the situation?Could it be that Yan Yiyun really hit the mark, Director Ying invited her to drink coffee and sent her home, in fact teasing her?

"Uh, well, then I'll call you...Ying Qi?"

Yu Xiaotao stammered and said that she felt that the name was like a cluster of fire, a little heartburning.

Ying Qi nodded casually and said, "Okay."

She turned on the stereo, and the radio station was playing an old love song. The afterglow of the setting sun filled the city and dyed the road golden.

Before a traffic light, Ying Qi stopped the car and asked, "What do you want to eat?"

"me?"

Yu Xiaotao was thinking wildly, but now she was taken aback again and said:

"I can do it, it's up to you."

Ying Qi nodded, and as soon as the green light changed, she drove out of the car and said, "Let's eat barbecue, you young people should like this kind of food."

"What do you call us young people?" Yu Xiaotao couldn't help complaining, "You said it as if you were very old."

Ying Qi sighed inaudibly, and said, "I'm almost 40 years old, why don't I grow old?"

When Yu Xiaotao heard this, she took a sneak peek at her. Ying Qi was well maintained, without a single wrinkle on her face, with delicate makeup and a well-fitting suit. She was exactly what Yu Xiaotao thought a professional woman would look like.

Where is this old?It's obviously very beautiful!

She said loudly: "No way! You look about my age, and you're 40 years old, you're almost 30, you're in your [-]s."

Ying Qi was amused by her, and said, "I didn't say you were old, why are you so angry?"

"Then you can't say you are old," Yu Xiaotao's voice lowered, "I don't want you to say that."

Ying Qi took another look at her, she really didn't know what the little girl was thinking, she laughed at herself, but she got angry, it's really strange.

She parked the car in front of a barbecue shop, which is the nearest online celebrity shop, with a wooden signboard and a thatched roof, which looks very interesting.

"Let's go," she turned off the fire, "go to eat."

Yu Xiaotao followed her into the barbecue restaurant.

After Ying Qi entered the store, the first thing she asked was: "Is there a private room?"

Yu Xiaotao was taken aback, it wasn't a group building, the two of them had dinner after get off work, why did they sit in a private room, she quickly tugged at Ying Qi's sleeve, and said, "Why do you want to sit in a private room?"

"Ok?"

Ying Qi turned her head and glanced at Yu Xiaotao, she likes to be quiet, and the noisy atmosphere in the barbecue restaurant frowned when she saw it, and she was used to being alone after the divorce, so she never thought to ask Yu Xiaotao's opinion, Just follow your own habits.

"I almost forgot, you young people like something lively, don't you? Then sit in the lobby."

Yu Xiaotao was a little at a loss, she felt that the private room was really too quiet and serious!Except for business meetings and team building with Yan Yiyun, she always sat in the lobby for dinner. Seeing what Ying Qi said, she had no choice but to nod along the way, and found a place to sit with her, but she felt a little weird in her heart .

Why did Ying Qi follow her so much?

Ying Qi handed her the menu and said, "Why are you standing there? You order first."

"Oh, oh," Yu Xiaotao took the menu, "Then I'll order first."

She circled a few dishes she liked, and handed the menu to Ying Qi. Ying Qi took a rough look, added some matching dishes, and handed the menu to the waiter.

After Ying Qi finished ordering, she pressed her phone and chatted with Yu Xiaotao one after another. Sometimes Yu Xiaotao said something and didn't wait for her response for a long time, so she couldn't help feeling a little impatient. What do you mean, it was Ying Qi who offered to have dinner with her, why did she keep looking at her phone while eating?

Yu Xiaotao looked at Ying Qi secretly. Ying Qi looked at the phone very intently, immersed in the world of the phone, and didn't notice that she was looking at her at all.

Yu Xiaotao became more courageous, and looked at Ying Qi carefully.

She had never looked at Ying Qi like this before. She was so close that she could see her eyelashes and lip line clearly.Most of the time, when Yu Xiaotao sees Ying Qi, it is Ying Qi who is standing in the center of the conference room giving a report, while she is sitting beside her, looking up at Ying Qi, and handing the materials to her at the right time, just like her shadows around.

"What are you looking at me for?"

Ying Qi asked suddenly, at some point, she had put down her phone and looked at Yu Xiaotao with a smile on her face.

Yu Xiaotao was taken aback. She quickly looked away and looked down at the table. There were a few cracks on the wooden table top, showing a little trace of time. Her heart was pounding, as if she had done something bad. Like being caught.

"Is it because I've been looking at my phone?"

Seeing that she didn't answer, Ying Qi found the answer by herself. She put the phone in her bag and smiled apologetically at Xiaotao:

"I've been quite busy with work recently, as you know, the planning of the next program will be released soon."

Yu Xiaotao finally recovered her voice, and said somewhat unnaturally: "Well... the next program is going to be produced independently by us, isn't it? Is your department about to select someone?"

Ying Qi nodded and said, "The video department has just been established, and many things are unfamiliar, so let's choose the artists first, and then discuss the theme of the program together."

Recently, Yan Yiyun was away, so Yu Xiaotao followed the planning of the new project all the way so that she could report to her after Yan Yiyun came back. Process, if Yan Yiyun asked something afterwards and she didn't know, it would be a big trouble.

When it came to the things Yu Xiaotao was familiar with, her chatterbox opened up, and she chatted with Ying Qi, chatting with each other.

"Excuse me, your barbecue."

The charcoal fire in the middle of the table had been burning for a while before the waiter came late with a trolley, put the dishes they ordered on the table one by one, and made a gesture of please to them.

It was only then that Yu Xiaotao realized that what she said to Ying Qi just now was different from what she said to Ying Qi in the conference room!

After finally having a meal together, why are you still talking about these work matters...

She looked up at Ying Qi, but Ying Qi didn't notice it, and was still discussing with her about the new program. For a while, Yu Xiaotao felt a little upset.

It's already off work, don't you think it's a bit strange to ask her to have dinner together and discuss work matters?

Ying Qi spread the pork belly on the baking tray, and the sound of oily sizzling sounded in the air, which greatly increased the appetite. Then, she spread the mushrooms around the baking tray, forming a circle.

"Mushrooms are not ripe, put them aside and roast for a while longer." Ying Qi picked up a piece of meat and put it on Yu Xiaotao's plate, "Eat the meat first."

Yu Xiaotao was a little embarrassed. For things like barbecue, two people should come together. In the end, Ying Qi finished it all by herself, and let her sit back and enjoy it.

While eating meat, Yu Xiaotao asked, "Ying Qi, do you still think about work after work?"

"Ok?"

Ying Qi was caught off guard and paused for a moment. She didn't expect Yu Xiaotao to ask such a question. She frowned and thought for a while, then said:

"Yes, otherwise what would I do?"

She is alone, living in one of the best apartments in the city, driving a top-of-the-line car, has nothing else she wants, and doesn't know where to spend the money she makes; The floor is just challenging itself, and there are no competitors in the same industry; after the divorce, not to mention seeing through men, at least half of them are understood, and I am even less interested in young boys.

After get off work, if you don't talk about work, what should you say?

Yu Xiaotao frowned and asked, "There are many things to do, such as shopping, hanging out with friends, singing, paving the way."

Ying Qi laughed, propped her chin with one hand, and looked at her: "My friends are busy with their children."

Yu Xiaotao was stymied, taking care of children, this topic was beyond her cognition.

Ying Qi shook her head and laughed wantonly: "I've said it all, we are not from the same era."

"Who said that?" Yu Xiaotao was even more unconvinced, "Then you still sit here and eat barbecue with me."

She just doesn't like Ying Qi's tone, as if they are very different. In the morning, they work in the same company and discuss the same project in the same conference room. If you eat the same barbecue in the store, how come you are not from the same era?

Ying Qi wanted to say that this was just a coincidence, but she couldn't bear to say such a thing when she looked at the pair of shining eyes in front of her.

She asked the little girl to have dinner together on a whim, who knew that three sentences wouldn't make it possible for them to talk together?Ying Qi regretted it a bit, and she had no choice but to take Yu Xiaotao, and she didn't know what to say, she brought him here, so she couldn't say that they would have a barbecue together, it doesn't mean anything, right?

Seeing that she didn't speak, Yu Xiaotao proudly raised her chin and said, "Okay, let's eat together, so don't think about what you have and what you don't have."

Ying Qi couldn't laugh or cry, why was she being educated by a little girl?

She intentionally blocked Yu Xiaotao's mouth, and seeing Yu Xiaotao eating happily, she asked consciously, "Anything else you want to add?"

"I can do it," Yu Xiaotao said unconsciously, "What about you?"

Ying Qi usually eats lightly. If you eat something greasy like barbecue, you don't want to eat it. Now you only eat some mushrooms occasionally. Basically, she is grilling meat and Yu Xiaotao is eating it. Just like that, Yu Xiaotao even asked her what she wanted. What to add?

Are kids nowadays so blind?

Ying Qi actually thought it was quite interesting, she sighed in her heart, she is really old, everything looks fresh, she took the menu, handed it to Yu Xiaotao, and said, "Aren't you tired of eating so much meat? Do you want to drink something?" What?"

Yu Xiaotao nodded sympathetically: "I'm tired too, how about some drinks? You're driving a car, and you can't drink."

After all, she said with some regret: "It's a pity, to eat barbecue is to drink beer."

Said that she didn't understand winks, but she was very considerate in this kind of thing, Ying Qi looked at the menu and muttered to herself, she wanted to take a good look at what drinks were there, but felt those small words kept beating in front of her eyes, a feeling that she hadn't seen in many years. The warmth of the past surged in her heart, which made her feel a little expectant and a little scared.

There may be a child who flickers in front of his eyes, and it feels pretty good.

Yu Xiaotao muttered something to the menu, and asked, "There are yellow peach, watermelon, and strawberry juices, what would you like to drink?"

"I drink yogurt," Ying Qi said without changing her face, "Do you want to drink? You can drink if you want, and I will take you home."

"That's right," Yu Xiaotao was unsuspecting, "Anyway, you know where I live, but watching me drink, don't you think it's boring?"

Ying Qi shook her head. She usually likes to drink wine, but she is no longer interested in beer, a drink that makes her fat and has no strength.

Yu Xiaotao ordered two bottles of beer, while grilling the meat, while waiting for the beer to come, she said, "Don't you usually drink?"

She recalled that Ying Qi didn't drink alcohol during the company's team building in the past few times. Every time, she stood quietly in the corner, watching the employees in her department laughing and laughing with relief, as if she wanted to become a fairy At the time, I thought it was beautiful, but now that I think about it, it's quite irritating.

She began to doubt again, Yan Yiyun said, what is the meaning of Ying Qi buying her Frappuccino if she has nothing to do, and asking her to think about it, but what's the point?

People like Ying Qi who don't play with others in team building will be interested in her?

Ying Qi watched Yu Xiaotao's face change from one moment of joy to another moment of disappointment. She didn't know what she was thinking, but when she thought about it on her knees, she knew that it had nothing to do with her question of drinking or not.

Ying Qi said: "I can drink a little at home, but not outside."

"Why?" Yu Xiaotao asked.

"It's not safe to drink outside," Ying Qi glared at her, "It's stupid."

Yu Xiaotao almost jumped up, but Ying Qi still said such things?She looked at Ying Qi dumbfounded, and asked, "What did you say?"

Ying Qi said slowly: "I said you are so stupid that you don't even know that drinking outside is not safe."

Yu Xiaotao's two bottles of beer came up, but she didn't dare to open the bottle caps.

She looked eagerly at the wine, then at Ying Qi, and said, "Then when I said that barbecue should be served with beer, why did you say you can drink it if you want?"

"It's simple, it's not unsafe to drink with me."

Ying Qi said lightly:

"I'm not an outsider..."

Yu Xiaotao's heart beat wildly. Based on her experience of watching idol dramas for many years, this sentence was usually followed by "I like you" or something like that!

Did Yan Yiyun really guess right?

She heard Ying Qi continue to say:

"You and I are in the same company. If you can run away, the monk can't run away from the temple. If you drink with me and have an accident, you can tell the boss tomorrow and ruin my life. Therefore, it is not unsafe for you to drink with me."

"Oh……"

Yu Xiaotao said, "That's it?"

"That's it," Ying Qi opened a bottle of wine for her with a smile, poured it into a glass, and pushed it in front of her, "Drink it at ease, I will keep you safe."

"Oh," Yu Xiaotao took a big sip of wine, recalling what Yan Yiyun said, her heart was filled with melancholy, "I thought you were going to say you liked me."

Ying Qi chuckled and looked at her in surprise:

"Why should I say I like you?"
