After Yin Hao fastened the seat belt on the co-pilot, he saw that Ji Shang was still adjusting the driver's seat.Move forward, then step back, stretch your hands back and forth on the steering wheel to find the position and measure the distance.

"I didn't realize that you have obsessive-compulsive disorder." Yin Hao saw that Ji Shang frowned, and his anxious appearance made him feel a little cute, so he joked, "I adjusted the distance just a little bit, you It took so long to adjust it. Tell me how much time you had to waste before this position was restored to the point of perfection."

Ji Shang said unhappily: "I adjusted the car once after I picked it up."

It took Yin Hao a while to react, he could not hide his smile and said: "So, I am the first person to drive this car besides you."

It is said that the car is a man's second wife, and he is the only one who has touched other people's concubine. To Yin Hao, this is really meaningful.

Ji Shang remained silent, his expression changed from anxious to a little flustered.Yin Hao didn't ask any further questions, and turned his head to look outside the car with a happy face.

Looking up, I saw Ding Jinlan standing on the terrace on the fourth floor, craning her neck to look at the parking lot.Yin Hao lowered the car window, poked his head out, and waved to Ji Shang's mother from a distance.At the same time, he said to Ji Shang: "Auntie Ding is looking at us, come on, wave your hand."

It seems that whether the landline is adjusted to the exact position is no longer the most important thing for Jishang.He fastened his seat belt and quickly drove the car out of the parking lot.

In the rearview mirror, the crape myrtle flowers that bloomed until late in the evening were lighter than the actual color under the scorching sun, slightly pinkish white, which reminded Yin Hao of Ji Shang's drunken cheeks.

Yin Hao broke the silence and said, "Are there any older sisters in your family?"

"No, I'm the only one of my parents."

Yin Hao asked: "So there are cousins, cousins?"

"No, both of my parents are only children." Ji Shang glanced at Yin Hao suspiciously, then seemed to understand, and said complacently: "That's right, with my appearance like a crown jade, even a man would want to ask I want a sister or something."

Yin Hao categorically denied it, and looked at Ji Shang: "I'm not looking for any sisters from you." However, if Ji Shang has sisters, they must be good-looking.

As the car drove into the Third Ring Expressway, Ji Shang's fair fingers held the edge of the black leather steering wheel, tightened it when turning, and the cyan blood vessels seemed to be drawn by the protruding knuckles, as if outlining the dark and shallow lines on the white porcelain.After returning to the normal direction, the tightly curled fingers slowly released a little force, and the cold white skin concealed the exposed bones and blood one by one.

The man said unhurriedly: "Then you ask this and that, what are you doing for a long time?"

Yin Hao moved his eyes away from Ji Shang's hands, and raised his gaze upwards. The sunlight from the rear of the car changed direction and leaked in through the car window, rubbing against Ji Shang's profile.

The light in August was dazzling, and Yin Hao couldn't bear to stare at the face that was as gentle as a crown of jade in the light.In fact, it is not accurate, not only his face, but also his hands, neck and trembling hair, any of them seems to be easy to sink after looking at them for a long time.

Yin Hao sat upright, his eyes fixed on the unnamed vegetation that slid past quickly outside the car window.

"Ask you something?" Ji Shang said again, "Why are you in a daze."

"What did you ask?" The ball of catkins in Yin Hao's head has not yet dissipated.

"Ask why you chased me and asked my sister and sister as soon as you got in the car."

"This." Yin Hao came back to his senses and murmured: "Because Auntie Ding has been pulling me just now, asking about age, job, household registration, education, and marital status. I think, except our police checking household registration , that’s what a blind date would ask. So I thought you had older sisters in your family.”

Ji Shang only responded briefly, as if he wanted to end the topic quickly, and didn't continue the chat.

After a while, Yin Hao gradually came to his senses after realizing it.There are no older sisters in Jishang's family this season, and his mother, Ding Jinlan, retired early at home. Even if a girl from a friend's family needs help introducing her, she doesn't need to be as enthusiastic as recruiting a son-in-law.Before going out, she held Yin Hao's hand and asked him to have a leisurely night with Ji Shang at night, and Ding Jinlan would cook for them both.

At that time, he thought that Ding Jinlan was just saying that politely, but now it seems that he is not.

According to various signs, there is only one possibility to believe now, and the truth is about to come out.Yin Hao blurted out, "Have you come out to your family?"

After a short moment of silence, Ji Shang was reluctant and let out a low 'hmm'.

Two quarters of an hour later, the car left the main road of the third ring road, but it didn't head towards the city center, but headed south along the New District Expressway.

Although Yunpan is a second-tier city, it is the second domestic science and technology city approved by the state.Not only that, because it is a coastal city, it also has the advantages of combining sea and land transportation, and its transportation and tourism industries are relatively developed.

The southern district is not facing the sea, and clusters of high-rise buildings outside the car windows gradually fade out of sight, replaced by large green spaces and parks.In this land of green shrubs and flowers, several egg-shaped buildings are slowly approaching.

Yin Hao recognized it. This is the Nanhu Gymnasium project in the Southern New District, which is about to be completed. The gymnasium will serve as one of the important sub-venues for the Universiade in the second year after completion.So although there is still some time before the completion of the gymnasium, all walks of life have already heard of the business opportunities, and the nearby land prices have soared.

Yin Hao heard that the most sought-after piece of land on the edge of South Lake, because the price was ridiculously high, some people in the industry gradually began to worry about its return on investment, and many companies died down.When the land auction started the year before last, there were several hot searches. Later, I heard that the winning bidder had built a hotel by the South Lake.

A city with a well-developed tourism industry presents both challenges and opportunities for the hotel industry.But building a hotel next to the gymnasium where the international sports meeting will be held soon can be said to have no harm. Once the sports meeting is held as scheduled, both domestic and foreign countries will gain both fame and fortune.

Yin Hao thought to himself, the person who bid for this land, or this team, is very forward-looking.

The car stopped, just in front of the hotel that Yin Hao had just thought of.Ji Shang got out of the car, handed over the car keys to the parking attendant, led Yin Hao straight around the front hall, got on the elevator with ease, and pressed the button for the nineteenth floor.

When the car stopped at the entrance of the hotel, Yin Hao was a little flustered and nervous, but he quickly regained his senses.No matter how frivolous and frivolous Ji Shang would be, he wouldn't take him to the hotel to open a room in broad daylight.Besides, the man told him that there was no sign of frivolity anymore, and he kept a proper distance at all times.

So even though Yin Hao was confused, he still held back and didn't ask.I asked once before, and Ji Shang has already turned me back, so he didn't ask any more.

The nineteenth floor is marked as an administrative floor, which should be the office floor inside the hotel.The lady at the front desk didn't seem to know Ji Shang, but after hanging up the phone, a lady wearing nude high-heeled shoes, wearing a black professional suit, combed her hair meticulously, and wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her narrow nose walked quickly. He came out from the inner office area.

"Mr. Ji." Han Qing said kindly: "It's a coincidence that you came, and if you are 10 minutes late, Mr. Ji should have left."

When Yin Hao heard Han Qing's name for Ji Shang, he guessed a little bit, and suddenly remembered the name of this hotel - The Ninth Moon, and his heart was inseparable.

"Sister Han, just call me Xiao Ji."

Ji Shang stopped, and stretched out his hand towards Yin Hao, who was a few steps behind, who was looking down in thought. After Yin Hao stepped forward, he walked forward side by side with him.

Right now, Yin Hao is indeed somewhat nervous and cramped.

It's not because the shocking background of this loose homestay owner is exposed before his eyes, nor is it because Ji Shang's family made him aware of the gap between the two.It is not uncommon for people at the top of status or financial resources to follow their parents to various political and business occasions since childhood.

The reason why he hesitated and sat silent on the sofa had nothing to do with these.In the morning, he unexpectedly saw Ji Shang's mother Ding Jinlan, and in the afternoon he met Ji Shang's father Ji Leshan without warning. This made Officer Yin, who is not very open-minded now, feel a little guilty for some reason.

When Ji Shang introduced Yin Hao, he first used the word friend, and then he revealed his identity as a policeman.Instead of telling his father the truth, he half-truthfully told his father that he was working as a temporary consultant in the police station through his old relationship to find inspiration for writing a book.

Compared with Ding Jinlan, Ji Leshan was much deeper and more mellow. He didn't chase after Yin Hao to investigate the household registration, nor did he ask about personal matters.But after learning why Ji Shang came to ask him for help, he nonchalantly reprimanded his son "not doing business properly", then let his assistant Han Qing in, and told her to assist the two with full authority.

From Ji Leshan's appearance, Yin Hao got a glimpse of what Ji Shang looked like when he was old.He thought that Ji Shang at that time should still be a charming man just like his father.Mature and wise, angular but not sharp, occasionally showing a free and easy smile just like Ji Shang to his relatives.

After leaving the hotel, the three of them came to Xiushui East Wharf, where Ji Shang's mysterious whereabouts that day were finally revealed.

Ji Shang has always taken Qin Zhijie's matter to heart, and while Yin Hao was moved, he couldn't help but feel lost.Because the itinerary indicated by Ji Shang's ambiguous sentence "Take you to a place" today has nothing to do with what he imagined.

TheNinthMoon is not only the store by the South Lake.Five years after Ji Shang was born, the one completed in the center of Yunpan was the first hotel established in Ji Leshan.The hotel started operating in September, and the company's annual meeting has also been held in September for many years.

Ji Shang came to the operating company of Xiushui East Wharf by taking advantage of the company's annual meeting to choose a location.When the management heard that the season merchants were going to rent a cruise ship to hold the annual meeting, they immediately became attentive.Han Qing communicated with the other party on the charging standards, dates, and capacity of various cruise ships, and took the casual proposal of Jishang as a reference item for discussion.

After Han Qing got to know everything in detail, Ji Shang was nitpicking again, playing his true colors as the second generation ancestor's superb acting skills, expressing worries about the messy parking of ships at the pier, and expressing worries about security control at the same time .

A manager surnamed Qin from the wharf management showed his sincerity and showed the records of the ships parked in the wharf for nearly half a year, as well as the type and ownership information of the ships.He also took Ji Shang to visit the real-time monitoring screen, which claims to be 360 ​​degrees without dead ends.

Ji Shang gave him a wink, Han Qing tacitly led Manager Qin to the window, and asked about the two large cruise ships that were moored at Xiushui East Wharf not far away.

Only then did Ji Shang casually throw the ship records at the wharf to Yin Hao, he didn't look at them for a while, and started to 'randomly' call out the monitoring records to browse them out of boredom.
