Over indulge

"I? I won't make any deals with people like you." Lin Jiayue didn't even think about refusing.

"Oh?" Zhou Cijing raised his eyebrows with interest, "What if this deal is related to Xu Ruining."

Lin Jiayue became nervous when she heard the whole person, and hurriedly asked: "What do you want!"

"Me? What do you want... I just want to have a meal with Miss Lin."

"What if I don't agree." Lin Jiayue said sternly.

"Then I'll make a call to Xu Ruining for you. She knows that you are in my hands now, and she will definitely come back regardless." Zhou Cijing paused after finishing speaking, and hurriedly added in a nonchalant tone : "Oh, by the way, Xu Ruining is currently negotiating a contract worth 200 billion in Europe. Recently, her company was forced by me to urgently need this cash flow."

!!!

It turned out that this was the deal she was talking about. If she didn't agree to have this meal with her, then Xu Ruining's contract would also fall through, and the company would be in a tense predicament.

Lin Jiayue understands Xu Ruining's temperament, once she knows that she is in Zhou Cijing's hands, the company and the like are irrelevant to her.Just like what Zhou Cijing said, she will come back regardless.

But during this time, Xu Ruining was so busy with the company's affairs that he even had to fly to Europe to handle it in person regardless of his body after the operation. Lin Jiayue didn't want her hard work to go to waste, and she didn't want all the efforts of her company's employees to go to waste.

But that would mean...meaning that he would have to compromise Zhou Cijing.

Seeing the thoughtful and sad look on Lin Jiayue's face, Zhou Cijing smiled and asked, "Did Miss Lin think about it?"

Lin Jiayue took a deep breath and replied, "Can... can you give it to me? Can you think about the time for one night?"

"No." Zhou Cijing refused very simply, without a leeway. "You have to give me now? The answer."

Seeing that Lin Jiayue was still hesitant, Zhou Cijing didn't want to wait any longer, and directly took out his mobile phone.

Seeing that she was about to make a call, Lin Jiayue hurriedly tried to stop her: "Wait, wait, don't call her, don't..."

Zhou Cijing smiled lightly, put the phone back into his pocket decisively, and asked, "It seems that Ms. Lin has already made up her mind."

Lin Jiayue lowered her head, stared at the floor, bit her lower lip, and said in embarrassment: "I? Have dinner with you, are you satisfied?"

It was an extremely difficult compromise. She knew it was wrong to do so, but Lin Jiayue had no choice. She didn't want Xu Ruining to sacrifice so much for herself. Liu, if you can help her tide over the difficulties, that would be great.

If you want to blame, you can only blame Zhou Cijing for being insidious and cunning, but she came out to make trouble at this juncture, and she did it on purpose.

Hearing her words of compromise, Zhou Cijing strode towards her, shortened the distance between the two of them, stopped when there were still a few steps left, and said, "You care about Xu Ruining more than I? I imagined." But, things are really getting more and more interesting.”

Lin Jiayue was not afraid at all, she raised her head and looked at her face to face, and asked forcefully, "May I go now?"

"So you don't want to be with me? Stay a little longer, forget it, let me send you a car to take you back." Zhou Cijing said with a slight smile.

"No need." After Lin Jiayue finished speaking, she turned sullenly and walked away, opened the door and walked directly into the rain.

The rain was falling on her hair, and her face was cool. After walking a few steps, someone came to hold an umbrella for her, and said embarrassingly, "Miss Lin, Miss Lin, you should get in the car."

Lin Jiayue ignored it and insisted on leaving on her own. She quickly crossed the road, drifted away, and disappeared into this rainy night.

After a while, Zhou Cijing came out of the house, and the person waiting at the door held up an umbrella for her in time. The woman who had failed to convince Lin Jiayue with the umbrella came back and admitted her mistake apologetically: "Mr. Zhou, She won't."

"I? I know, I guessed it." Zhou Cijing smiled slightly, looking at the dark night sky, he couldn't help talking to himself: "Things that are so easy to get will lose the excitement of chasing prey."

As long as it belonged to Xu Ruining, she would snatch it by any means.

Lin Jiayue has been walking for a long, long way, and the rain soaked her clothes, but none of the taxis she hailed along the road would stop, and most of them passed by quickly, as if they hadn't seen them.

Helpless, Lin Jiayue had no choice but to walk all the way to the nearest bus stop in the rain. Fortunately, the phone was waterproof, and it still had electricity after wiping it dry. It was enough to take the bus back later.

Standing under the shed waiting for the bus, a couple who were also waiting beside them couldn't help casting curious glances at her, probably because they were curious about her drowned appearance at this time.

Lin Jiayue didn't care too much anymore, she was shivering from the cold, and when the car arrived, she hurried into the car with her arms folded, scanned the QR code and went in to find a seat.

Everyone on the bus looked at her as if they were different. Lin Jiayue hugged her arms and sat down on an empty seat. She was still very cold and her body was shaking uncontrollably.

At this moment, a grandmother sitting in the front seat turned around, handed over her handkerchief and said, "Girl, wipe it off."

"No, no, thank you."

"Take it, take it."

Lin Jiayue finally accepted the other party's kindness, feeling a warm current in her heart, and quickly wiped the rainwater off her face. The clean handkerchief was instantly drenched by her, and water could even be wrung out. She was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to return it. other side.

At this moment, the bus stopped, and the grandma in the front seat got up to get off the bus. Lin Jiayue hurriedly wanted to return the handkerchief, but grandma smiled and waved her hand and said, "Give it to you, girl." got out of the car.

Lin Jiayue sat on the seat, clutching a handkerchief, with mixed emotions in her heart.

After sitting for an indeterminate amount of time, Lin Jiayue realized that it was time to get off the bus, and almost missed the stop.

When she got out of the car at this time, the rain was a little lighter, so she hurried all the way and returned to the residence in a mess.

The light in the house was turned on when she went out, but there was no one in the house, she was the only one in the huge house.

It suddenly occurred to her that she went out to buy food, but she didn't bring the food back smoothly. Maybe she would be swept into the trash by the cleaning aunt tomorrow.The exhaustion all over her body has already prevented her from feeling hungry, and now she just wants to take a bath and then sleep.

Put hot water in the bathtub, put the phone on the bedside table to charge, and then Lin Jiayue went into the bathroom with clean clothes.

He took off his wet clothes, walked into the bathtub and lay down naked, the warm liquid wrapped his whole body, every cell and pore was stretched, it was extremely comfortable.

She accidentally fell asleep, and when Lin Jiayue woke up, she was still choking on her saliva, and quickly sat up while leaning on the edge, taking a deep breath. At that time, the water in the bathtub had already cooled down.

He quickly got up, wrapped himself in a bath towel, put on his pajamas, and went back to the bedroom in a daze.

It was already twelve midnight.

Lin Jiayue glanced at her phone, wondering if Xu Ruining had replied or contacted her, but she didn't expect that there was actually a missed call on her phone, what a pity, she must have been in the bathroom at that time and didn't hear it.

Holding the charged phone in a daze like this, after thinking about it, she decided to send a message to Xu Ruining, regardless of whether she was free to reply now.

Lin Jiayue: I accidentally fell asleep in the bathtub just now, I didn't receive your call, sorry.

Not long after the news was sent out, Xu Ruining's video call came directly. Lin Jiayue was overjoyed and quickly answered it.

Xu Ruining's face and her familiar voice appeared on the phone screen.

"How could you fall asleep in the bathtub? You're too careless. It's dangerous if you choke on the water."

Lin Jiayue smiled and explained: "Maybe it's because I'm too sleepy, so...Ah Choo."

"Cold?" Xu Ruining immediately asked nervously, frowning.

Lin Jiayue covered her face and said, "No, maybe I just caught a cold, I? Just sleep and I'll be fine."

"I? I'm not at home, I must take care of myself."

Hearing this, Lin Jiayue couldn't help asking: "You, when are you coming back?"

"It's about two days away, but I? I'll do it as soon as possible."

Lin Jiayue nodded understandingly: "I? You don't have to worry here, I? I'll be fine. You should pay more attention to your health outside, especially not long after you just finished the operation."

"I? I'm fine. I have a doctor accompanying me. Don't worry." Xu Ruining said.

Lin Jiayue pursed her lips and smiled, and couldn't help thinking of the night's experience, Zhou Cijing's conversation and threats, and accidentally fell into deep thought.

Seeing her absent-minded look, Xu Ruining couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you, what's the matter?"

"No, no, no." Lin Jiayue came back to her senses, and immediately denied it again and again, and then smiled covertly and said, "I? There's nothing going on at home."

"If something happens, don't hide it from me? I'll help you deal with it."

"I? I know." Lin Jiayue smiled slightly.

"Then I won't disturb your rest, go to bed early, and you have to go to class tomorrow." Xu Ruining said.

Lin Jiayue nodded, "Then I'll rest."

After getting tired of it, the video call finally ended. Lin Jiayue put down her phone and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. Just now, she almost showed her flaws. She obviously didn't do anything to apologize to her. Why is there such a strong burden in her heart? guilt.

However, when she heard that Xu Ruining would not come back for at least two days, Lin Jiayue was still a little relieved. At least in this way, she would not know about the meal with Zhou Cijing, and it would not affect Her company, in this way, can solve this dilemma quietly.

Turning off the bedside lamp and lying down, Lin Jiayue closed her eyes and Zhou Cijing's face popped up in her mind. It was obviously such a perfect and impeccable face, but why did it make people feel cold and hairy on the back.

She really doesn't know what kind of big crisis will be waiting for her in the future, waiting for Xu Ruining, judging from Zhou Cijing's confidence that she will win, her ambition seems to be more than that.

Turning over to face the window again, the rain outside became heavier again, dripping so much that it almost lasted the whole night.

She closed her eyes for a long time without feeling drowsy, but in desperation, Lin Jiayue had no choice but to open her eyes again, unable to sleep, still unable to sleep, there were too many things accumulated in her mind, and it was likely that she would suffer from insomnia.
