Say it's only once

Chi Jin didn't even know how he got back to the apartment that night.

Before going to bed, President Shen sent a text message to Linshi on a business trip to save her.

During the week of the business trip, Chi Jin asked several times how the work of the three newcomers was going. The colleague who brought the newcomers reported the work progress and achievements of the three newcomers on weekdays, and praised Ji Ran several times.

For some reason, Chi Jin felt guilty when he heard Ji Ran's name inexplicably, and didn't ask carefully, just mumbled "Oh" and just passed by.

Back from a business trip, Chi Jin received a call from his mother while he was waiting at the carousel to pick up his luggage at the airport.

"I came out of the mountains, let's have a meal at home, I haven't seen you for a long time."

"Okay. Is this trip rewarding?"

A smile appeared in the calm and indifferent voice: "Not bad."

Seeing the familiar suitcase, Chi Jin lifted it down: "Congratulations."

After hanging up the phone, Chi Jin pulled the suitcase and walked towards the exit.

The flight back was very early, and it was only seven o'clock in the morning. She got up at four o'clock to board the plane. She was still a little tired and sleepy after a business trip, so she went back to the apartment and took a short sleep.

After getting up to take a shower, he drove to the community next to Ningcheng University.

The neighborhood is very quiet, and the people living here are basically professors from Ningcheng University. The cold snap hit last night and the temperature dropped sharply, and there were almost no people outside.

The leaves of ginkgo are withered and yellow, and the branches are bare. Occasionally, a few leaves hang on the branches, and they will fall down when the wind blows.

When Chi Jin arrived home, there were several stacks of dishes packed in takeaway boxes on the dining table. His mother Lu Wei was pouring the dishes into delicate dinner plates. Chi Jin washed his hands and went to help.

Since he was a child, Chi Jin has been eating with his parents in the faculty cafeteria of Ningcheng University, and occasionally going out to eat or take out. On festivals such as the Mid-Autumn Festival, he called part-time workers to do a meal.

The family of three always eats quietly. His father, Chi Yaxu, asked Chi Jin how his work was recently. Chi Jin said that he was a little tired at the end of the year, but everything else was fine.

Then, at the end of the quiet journey, Lu Wei said: "The daughter of Mr. Economic Falin got married on Saturday, and we invite our whole family to attend. If you have time, go together."

Chi Jin thought about whether there would be a meeting on Saturday: "No problem."

Lu Wei's chopsticks were still resting on the edge of the bowl, and he exchanged glances with Chi Yaxu, and said, "There should be someone chasing you. It's been half a year, is there anyone you like?"

really.

Whenever acquaintances get married, parents will always mention this.

It seems that God has deliberately arranged it. I have never seen acquaintances get married so frequently before. It seems that every day in the past six months has been auspicious.

If Chi Jin remembers correctly, Teacher Lin's daughter should be in the ninth match.

"No." Chi Jin said calmly.

"Last New Year's Day last week, Cui Lin called us to greet us and brought a lot of gifts, this kid—"

Chi Jin put down his chopsticks: "It's impossible for me to talk to him."

At first, Chi Jin didn't tell anyone, including his parents, the internal reasons for the cancellation of the wedding and the breakup.It's not respectable for a fiancé to cheat.

They unexpectedly insisted on asking for the reason, Chi Jin told the truth, and Lu Wei said it was a pity at that time.

After only half a year, they were shaken by Cui Lin's relentless overtures. In the past three months, Chi Jin had no patience to listen.

I really want to complain, what about the persistence of scientific researchers?

Chi Yaxu didn't show much appreciation for Cui Lin when Chi Yaxu brought Cui Lin home for the first time until the two got engaged.

At this time, he spoke for him in a slow voice: "Some things, happening before marriage may not be a bad thing. He has learned a lesson, and he will better understand what family responsibility is. How many men can't stand the temptation after marriage, and the next one may not be better than Cui Lin You shouldn't have hastily sent a message to cancel the wedding at the beginning, and there was no room for change."

Wouldn't it be nice not to talk about the next one?

Chi Jin wanted to say this very much, his raised eyes followed Lu's slight single eyelids, his eyes were ice-like when he was cold, but he didn't say anything, and remained silent.

Talking about Cui Lin, the meal ended badly.

No one speaks, she is silent, and her parents are more silent than her.

After eating, Chi Jin packed up the tableware and put them in the dishwasher, picked up the bag and said goodbye to the two of them.

Opening the door, the cold winter wind rushed to the face, which made it a little painful. At this moment, Lu Wei whispered behind her back, using the usual tone of a teacher: "We are thinking of you! After the New Year, you will be three Ten! Do you think you are still young?"

Chi Jin didn't look back.

On the way back to drive, the traffic in the commercial area was crowded and blocked, and the traffic police were in front to maintain order, gesturing to direct the car.

The loud and melodious sound of the zither next to him made Chi Jin turn his head.

A stage was set up in the blank area of ​​the square, and there were huge posters outside, which seemed to be a Hanfu catwalk show.

Several young girls in exquisite costumes were sitting on the edge of the stage, and a makeup artist in front of each of them was carefully applying makeup to them.

The cars in front and back were anxious due to the congestion, but Chi Jin's boredom disappeared, and he looked at the stage with a somewhat leisurely mood.

For some reason, looking at several makeup artists, and remembering how Ji Ran put on her makeup half a year ago, I suddenly felt regretful that the makeup was so beautiful that day that I couldn't take a picture of it.

The wedding scene on Saturday was grand.

Lin Baiyun is Lu Wei's classmate, and now he is an associate professor at Ningcheng University. Most of the guests who come here are also teachers of Ningcheng University, and Chi Jin is familiar with them.

As soon as they arrived at the welcoming place, Lin Baiyun smiled at them from afar.

Until the three approached, Lu Wei and Chi Yaxu sent blessings and red envelopes, and exchanged a few words.

Lin Baiyun's eyes turned to Chi Jin, and he said, "It's been a long time since I saw you, today is really getting more and more beautiful, is he still alone now?"

Which pot does not open which pot.

Lin Baiyun and Lu Wei entered Ningcheng University in the same year, but they fell behind in their second title papers. Their daughter was not as good as Chi Jin, and they failed to pass the undergraduate degree. They were sent abroad to get a master's degree, and they returned to China to find connections and arranged work in the logistics of the university. .

As for Chi Jin, who went abroad to get the full award, he became the vice president at a young age.

Now because of her daughter's marriage, the two turned upside down, and Lin Baiyun felt quite elated.

Lu Wei's face was not very good-looking.

Chi Jin raised the corner of his mouth and smiled: "Yes, Aunt Lin wants to introduce me?"

"It's fine."

The smile on Lin Baiyun's face became brighter, and he pointed in a direction: "Over there are the guests of the man's side. My son-in-law's classmates and colleagues are all young talents. After the toast, I will introduce you to a few acquaintances."

"Okay, it must be better than Cui Lin."

Hearing this, Lin Baiyun was a little embarrassed: "Don't be so picky! Good people are the most important thing! Besides, no matter how good Cui Lin's conditions are, you two will break up, girl, isn't it good to be pragmatic?"

Chi Jin smiled: "Then there is no need."

Entering the wedding venue, Lu Wei looked at Chi Jin and smiled a little, the unhappiness of the dinner the day before yesterday disappeared.

She asked: "Don't you hate mentioning Cui Lin? Why did you mention it yourself today?"

Chi Jin glanced at her lightly, it turned out that they knew that they hated their Ti Cuilin.

This time, I didn't care about it. Looking at the groom who was desperately buttoning up his suit at the side door of the venue, he said indifferently: "I just want to let Aunt Lin know that I don't even want Cui Lin, not to mention the young talents she talks about."

Lu Wei: "Actually, Cui Lin..."

Chi Jin turned his head, Lu sighed slightly, and stopped talking.

From the ceremony to the toast, the venue was noisy from the ceremony to the toast. Chi Jin didn't eat much. The dazzling light from the ceiling of the venue shone down, and the wine glasses on the table reflected a dazzling halo.

Strange, without drinking, she felt as if she was in a state of drunkenness, drifting away from the hustle and bustle.

No one mentioned it now, but Chi Jin himself thought of Cui Lin.

If there were no text messages, she should have married Cui Lin, just like the couple at today's wedding, after the ceremony on the stage, they ran back and forth to toast.

Put yourself in the shoes, the picture is there.

As if a basin of ice-quenched water was being poured head-on, Chi Jin suddenly trembled, his whole body sober.

"Hey! You hit someone!"

A thick voice howled like a pig, quite penetrating, and instantly attracted many people to turn their heads in the noisy venue.

"Who's in charge?! Call the police, I want to call the police!" The man howled louder and louder.

Some people stood up from the table for fear of not being able to see it, and many children ran over after them. The bride and groom who were toasting at the other end were very dazed, looking over there with their wine glasses, as if hesitating.

Lin Baiyun and his wife hurried over with their parents, who should be the groom, and one of them almost fell.

All in all confusing.

Lu Wei didn't like noise, frowned lightly, and asked Chi Jin with his head tilted: "Have you finished eating, let's go first."

Chi Jin had already stood up and looked towards the surrounding crowd.

Seeing her like this for the first time, Lu Wei wondered, "Since when did you also like to watch fun?"

"I gonna go see."

Chi Jin walked over.

The heels she wore today were not low, so she walked fast and steady, and she was in front of the crowd in a while.

"No, no, you just watched me being beaten?!"

The man was in his forties, his brown sweater collar was slipped by his slender hand, his clumsy body seemed to fly half a circle around the center of the circle, a Martin boot was kicked towards the bend of his leg, and he was like a child who fell to the front of the crowd .

The children didn't feel scared at all, but laughed one by one.

The man's face was as dark red as if he had been drinking alcohol. He was obviously fat, but he was trapped by that hand and couldn't break free, so he could only shout: "Call the police! Why didn't you call the police!?"

Chi Jin looked at the owner of the hand.

She was not mistaken, she thought it was an illusion when she glanced at the seat, and she was sure.

Ji Ran's hair is tied behind his head, and the high ponytail is tied with a few hair ropes like lotus root sections, showing a beautiful and slender swan neck, which is as white as jade, and everyone present can't help but want to hold it with their hands .

Her hand was slipping over the middle-aged man's sweater collar, and the waistline of the sweater that was close to her body showed a thin and tight arc during her movements. If it wasn't for the man's size, she would move him as if she was playing with a spinning top.

He didn't smile, but his brows and eyes had a kind of leisurely ease.

"Dad! What's wrong with you, Dad?!"

The young man squeezed through the crowd and quickly squatted down to help the middle-aged man lying on the ground.

Ji Ran relaxed, took out a wet tissue from somewhere, and wiped his hands slowly.

It is estimated that the kick was not light, and the middle-aged man was shaking when he stood up.

The child laughed again, and the young man was so annoyed by the laughter, he opened his mouth and cursed: "Where did you get the shameless thing! Wait for me to get into the game!"

The middle-aged man groaned loudly.

The bride and groom also rushed over, frowning when they heard this sentence.

"Brother!" The young man pointed at the groom with sharp eyes: "This woman hit my dad! Who is this person, who dares to hit people in public?!"

"Old men dare to touch my butt in public, why can't I do it?"

Ji Ran smiled, and said in a cold tone, "If I only kicked his left leg but didn't break his third leg, it would be my Buddha's mercy!"

"puff."

"Cough cough."

Some of the onlookers couldn't help it.

The young man's face turned pale, seeing the mobile phones raised by some people around him, he was quick to think.

Everyone was eating. Who would have photographed his dad doing that wretched thing, but so many people took pictures with their mobile phones, there must be evidence of beating someone.

Full of confidence, his voice became louder, and he tapped the nearby mobile phone with his hand: "All the evidence of your crime has been left, just wait for the court to see you!"

Just as Ji Ran was about to speak, a tall and thin figure came into view.

"you sure--"

Chi Jin raised his right hand and pointed his index finger upwards.

The tailored gray-blue straight dress made her tall and slender. She spoke clearly and forcefully, and her tone was cold, not Ji Ran's cold with strong contempt.

It's like the coldness that hits your face in an instant when you go from the outside to the air-conditioned room in midsummer, cold but not annoying.

Inexplicably with a convincing sense of professionalism, the onlookers subconsciously followed her fingers and raised their heads.

She said lightly: "——Hasn't what your father did was written down?"

Panoramic cameras were installed above the venue.

"Placing a camera can record the entire venue, from the ceiling to the floor, everything can be seen, which is much better than ordinary recording." During the greetings, Lin Baiyun introduced it this way.

"Oh……"

"puff."

Someone else couldn't help it.

The young man's face darkened.

"Do you want to watch it? How about playing it again?"

"Yeah, they've all beaten people, it's hard to justify it without looking at it."

"Would you like to watch it together?"

Out of the corner of the young man's eyes, his father's eyes were so low that he only looked at the floor.

There was still something the groom couldn't understand, so he hurried over with a smiling face: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my second uncle must have drunk too much alcohol on purpose, it's..."

The bride reminded in a low voice: "Professor Lu's daughter, Chi Jin."

Chi Jin mentioned it to Lin Baiyun many times. The groom knew that the wedding was canceled half a year ago, and more importantly, he was the vice president of Landi.

"Miss Chi, I'm really sorry, there are too many people today and it's a little messy." The groom glanced at Ji Ran, then looked at Chi Jin: "Is this a coincidence, I didn't expect Miss Chi and... the makeup artist to know each other?"

Makeup artist?

Chi Jin smiled lightly: "It's a child I know."

Standing obliquely behind, Ji Ran saw Chi Jin's slightly raised jaw, and the unspoken aura around her reminded her of the day when she was choosing a department in the conference room——

She asked if she wanted her, Chi Jin coldly said yes.

Such a serious look...

I just missed her coquettish blooming in the confusion.

Ji Ran raised her lips slightly.

How to do?

sleepy.

The author has something to say:

The child himself: want to sleep, hee hee
