This meal, with Chi Jun's lively atmosphere and Zhong Yi's timely support, was a joy for the host and guest.

Later, Chi Jun and Zhong Yi sent Tang Huaiyu and Mu Yun back to their residence together.The two lived in the Shengyuan Hotel. When they came out of the hotel, Zhong Yi joked: "I thought you would go to the foreman and ask them to entertain you well." The domineering president, shouldn't he contract the fish pond and the Tianliang king? break.

Chi Jun was speechless: "The foreman doesn't know me."

The division of factions within Shengyuan is too complicated, and there are two teams in Jingshi and Haicheng.Not to mention the hotel foreman, most of the higher-level managers would not recognize Chi Jun's face when they saw Chi Jun.

Zhong Yi smiled and said: "Listen to what you said just now, do you still have to go to the Great Wall tomorrow?"

Chi Jun said "hmm": "Yes." To entertain relatives and friends from outside in Beijing, to put it bluntly, it is still those few places.Great Wall, Forbidden City, Summer Palace.If they are really close friends, Chi Jun will tell them frankly that the scenic spot has improved, and it is a hot day, why not call a monkey and play games together in the hotel.Or simply go to Qinhuangdao, yacht surfing.

But for Tang and Mu, of course, it is the most polite.

The position Chi Jun found for herself was very clear: the elders asked him to take care of his friend's children.

Don't care about the purpose of this "friend", and don't care about the relationship between the "elder" and him.

When getting along, Chi Jun will always grasp this measure.Will be kind, funny, but no further.

The two walked to the parking lot.Chi Jun held the car key in his hand and turned it intentionally or unintentionally.

The key hit the buckle, bringing out a jerky sound, which mixed with the footsteps of the two.

Zhong Yi thought for a while and said, "It's been quite hot recently, so pay attention to sun protection when you go out." Nearly two months have passed, and Chi Jun's skin, which had been tanned to a light honey color during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, has returned to much whiter.

His eyes fell on Chi Jun.Slowly, with a very unobtrusive posture, slightly staggering the half-body distance, looking at Chi Jun's neck and ear from the side and rear.

Zhong Yi is very restrained, even if he indulges himself right now, it is with an appreciation.Think: The person I like looks so good.

Even from the back, one could see Chi Jun's slender figure and the gathered lines around her waist.

He also thought of Chi Jun knocking into his arms on the day of the sports meeting.He clasped Chi Jun's waist, distracted for a moment, only felt that the warm wind of the whole summer was in his palm, making his heart beat like thunder.

Stop.

……We are friends.

is a friend.

Chi Jun recalled where she parked, stopped, turned around, and said, "I never asked, have you talked with Sheng Yuan about your glass?"

Zhong Yi was determined, and replied: "Coincidentally, I just signed the contract today."

Chi Jun smiled, pressed the key in his hand, and the lights of a commercial vehicle in front turned on.He said to Zhong Yi: "Congratulations, should I call you 'Boss Zhong' from now on?"

Zhong Yi laughed: "Just make fun of me."

Chi Jun: "No, I think it's pretty good. Qin Lou, did he say anything more?"

Zhong Yi said: "No." After a pause, he explained, "But on the surface, Teacher Zhang took a deputy position on my side," and he did so willingly, "He was also the one who signed the contract in the end."

Chi Jun raised her lower lip: "That's right. I asked before, and I said that Qin Lou looked meticulous, but in fact he knew how to measure. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't worry about putting you in the ongoing project."

Zhong Yi: "Why, are you afraid that I will be bullied?"

Chi Jun: "...I know you are very good."

While talking, the two got into the car.Zhong Yi sat in the co-pilot seat and put on his seat belt voluntarily and consciously.

As he was moving, he suddenly heard Chi Jun sigh softly.

Zhong Yi paused and looked sideways at him.

Chi Jun changed the subject: "But workplace and school are two different things after all."

He looked at Zhong Yi.Zhong Yi was surprised, but naturally found that at this moment, Chi Jun's expression was no longer as relaxed as before, but became serious and serious.

He put one hand on the steering wheel.There were no lights in the car, only the light from outside came in.

Vaguely, it shines on Chi Jun's face.

Perhaps it was due to the environment, but at this moment, his pupils were very dark, adding to the awe-inspiring atmosphere.

Chi Jun: "Before Yuan Wenxing's matter, you only had to deal with him. Zhu Hong's matter, after all, there are others from Kexin who are in front of him. But now, I obviously hope you will be my help, but I can't help you. You are too much." His own contact with things is still limited, and now... something unexpected happened.

Chi Jun said slowly: "Zhong Yi, sometimes I wonder if you are walking too smoothly. This is of course a good thing, it shows that you have the ability, vision, and luck. But I worry occasionally that you will Wouldn’t you lower your vigilance just because things were so simple before? There are so many things, it’s hard to say. Before encountering them, it’s hard to imagine how sinister the human heart is.”

At the end, he slowly frowned.

Zhong Yi noticed and didn't say much.He looked at Chi Jun quietly, waiting for the other party's next words.

However, Chi Jun seemed to feel that she had slipped her words, and her expression softened, showing a bit of annoyance: "I'm not scaring you, it's just..."

Zhong Yi: "Thank you for worrying about me."

Chi Jun blinked.

Zhong Yi: "The whole Shengyuan, I trust, only you."

Chi Jun pursed her lower lip, as if a little embarrassed.

Zhong Yi: "Only you are with me and won't harm me."

Chi Jun looked away slightly, her Adam's apple rolling.

Zhong Yi: "Qin Lou, he is quite a good boss. As you said just now, you asked me before and got a certain understanding, so you put me under him for 'training', right?"

Chi Jun responded.

In fact, he did not simply "ask".Instead, carefully observe, find out who has opinions on Qin Lou, and slowly formulate the words.Some words are most accurate when heard from the opponent's mouth.

It's just these complicated processes, there's no need to tell Zhong Yi.

Zhong Yi: "At least it's true that he is responsible for his work." Unlike Zhu Hong, Qin Lou cares about his posthumous reputation more or less like Zhu Hong, "For other things, there must be a conflict of interest before someone will do it. "

Chi Jun laughed: "I thought after what happened to Yuan Wenxing, you wouldn't think so anymore."

Zhong Yi admitted: "Yes, there will indeed be some inexplicable targets. But once this kind of person shows his tail, he will be the target of public criticism. I may not be able to deal with it, but I can always do it if I expose the other party's true face."

Speaking of this, Zhong Yi was almost certain that something must have happened to Chi Jun to express his feelings.

But since Chi Jun didn't take the initiative to ask, Zhong Yi didn't take the initiative to ask.

He concluded: "So, you don't have to worry too much about me. If you can't even get through this bit of hardship, you can't be Chi's partner, right?"

Chi Jun smiled slightly, as if he was a little more relaxed.

He turned the key and started the car.

Zhong Yi slowly leaned back in his chair, looked at Chi Jun, and then at the gradually unfolding night ahead.The lights are like a dragon, stretching in front of his eyes, just like the day of his car accident—he thought about tomorrow being Monday again, what he would say at the morning meeting, and how the park project was progressing.Chi Jun probably asked for leave before he could take Tang Huaiyu and Mu Yun to the Great Wall...Who is Mu Yun?Have you ever seen this person in your previous life?In other words, she is not in those complicated families in Haicheng, but a pure friend of Tang Huaiyu?

He thought of Tang Huaiyu's eyes.Even if the two lives have passed, Zhong Yi still has no real feelings about having a twin sister.What impressed him the most about the Tang family was what Xie Ling murmured, it would be great if Tang Huaijin was their child.That being the case, Tang Huaiyu, who is also from the same family, would probably feel the same way.

They are family.

And he, Zhong Yi, is lonely.

He touched the briefcase at hand and noticed that a little protrusion on it was the pair of cufflinks he bought in the evening.The white sail above rides the wind and waves, just like Chi Jun in my own eyes.

And he is the wind and waves beside Chi Jun.

Even if he asked himself, he wanted to be Chi Jun's rudder and Chi Jun's anchor.

……

……

On the second day of climbing the Great Wall, the two girls were wearing sun protection clothing and asked Chi Jun if he wanted to wear sunscreen.

Chi Jun paused when she heard the words, inexplicably thinking of Zhong Yi's previous words, and then silently took the bottles and jars that Tang Huaiyu handed over.

Tang Huaiyu pursed his lips and smiled.As Chi Jun looked at her, his heart skipped a beat.

A few months ago, at night, on the playground.

Hearing the sound of practice from below, he looked at Zhong Yi, and suddenly felt that the lines of his eyebrows and eyes were inexplicably familiar.

At this moment, Chi Jun suddenly remembered: Yes, I met Tang Huaiyu during the winter vacation.

Some things are hard to associate too much before you notice them.

At this moment, Chi Jun took a closer look at Tang Huaiyu several times, and finally sighed: It really looks like it.

But nothing worth mentioning either.

He handed the sunscreen back to Tang Huaiyu, smiled, and said, "Okay, let's go."

A few days later, Tang Huaiyu and his friends left Beijing.

The busy lives of Chi Jun and Zhong Yi are still going on.The two still maintained the roommate relationship that they only saw each other when they took a shower in the morning, but when Zhong Yi had nothing to do, he would always think about one more question: Chi Jun's birthday is still eighteen days away, what gift should I get?

There are sixteen days left until Chi Jun's birthday, do you want to have a meal together?

But what if he has an appointment in advance?

Or ask first, don't be preempted by others.

Zhong Yi made a decision and quickly put it into practice.

This morning, while washing with Chi Jun, Zhong Yi asked, "Do you have any plans for the tenth?"

Chi Jun stopped wiping her face, but the towel still covered most of her face.

A pair of eyes were exposed, covered with wet hair, sticking wet to the forehead.

He was surprised, not quite sure: "On the tenth...my birthday?"

Zhong Yi: "Yes."

Chi Jun paused, looking at her messy and curled hair in the mirror.

Slowly, he hung the towel back on the shelf, squeezed toothpaste on the toothbrush, and said, "Don't pay too much attention to this. You didn't say it, I almost forgot."

Zhong Yi: "..."

Xiaochi always forgets about his birthday, Zhong Yi is quite familiar with it.

In his previous life, he had been Mr. Koike's assistant and partner for six years, but he had only seen birthday cakes twice, and they were all surprises prepared by other employees in the office.

But there is a difference between forgetting in a hurry and forgetting under the "preoccupied" situation, Zhong Yi can see it.

As if aware of Zhong Yi's attitude, Chi Jun added: "How about we have a meal together then?"

Ordinarily, after hearing this sentence, Zhong Yi should be satisfied.

But the moment the other party's voice fell, what he thought of was: Chi Jun is very sure that he will not be with his uncle's family for his birthday.

But Cong Zhu works in Beijing, and during the winter vacation, when the model casting ended, Chi Jun went to stay at his uncle's house for a few days, and the two were very close.

Zhong Yi retrieved Aunt Chi Jun's face from his memory.In my vague impression, she was an intellectual, elegant, and caring woman.

Did you say it in advance?

Or—other reasons?

At this moment, Zhong Yi suddenly realized that half of the summer vacation had passed, but in the entire July, Chi Jun never mentioned his uncle's family.

This is very unusual.

Zhong Yi instantly had many associations.The local changes in the news, the vague wind direction that I heard when I was in Shengyuan, Chi Jun's recent exhaustion and powerlessness - the most important thing is still the news of a group of officials who fell from the horse in the middle of this year in the memory of my previous life.

This incident left a deep impression on Zhong Yi, it was almost the beginning of his understanding of the political world in his previous life.The cause was just a trivial matter in other provinces, but the central government issued documents many times, but no one below implemented them.After several repetitions, the inspection team was finally attracted.At the same time, the upper-level officials are divided into factions, fighting in the air, and have a lot of entanglements.

All the clues converge, pointing to a clear answer.

Cong Zhu encountered some trouble, but Chi Jun's aunt who cared about the younger generation had no time for him.Chi Jun will not be affected by any actual effect, but it is inevitable to worry.
