Chapter 66 Turn off the lights small medium large Previous chapter: Chapter 65Next chapter: Chapter 67 Since Beijing entered the cold winter, it snowed for the first time last night.

There was sufficient heating inside the company, and the office was also very dry. There were two cute mini humidifiers on Sang Yao's desk. She was holding the milk tea that Wei Jing had just made for her, and just stared blankly. computer. She rarely showed such an expression, even when Ada and Wei Jing were discussing this year's winter new styles, she did not join in the conversation.

This world is really psychedelic.

How could Xiao Chengxiu have such thoughts about her? When did it happen? He was drunk last night. Did he admit the wrong person? But it was clear that what he said didn't sound like he was admitting his mistake.

The most amazing thing was that when she was in a daze, Xiao Chengxiu, who smelled of alcohol, stared at her and said nonchalantly: "It's getting late now, you have a good rest."

After saying this, he looked at her again , then turned and left.

So, he drank so much wine last night and ran to her door specially just to say that sentence?

She didn't sleep all night last night!

When she woke up in the morning, the dark circles under her eyes were invisible. It took her a long time just to cover them.

It was only then that she could calm down a little and analyze this magical thing.

She swears! Before time travel, she had seen all kinds of tricks to determine whether a man liked her or not. She had always prided herself on having a sharp eye, but she really, really didn't find any sign that Xiao Chengxiu liked her. From beginning to end, From the time she traveled through time to now, to be honest, even though she wanted to hug his thigh, the relationship between them could be said to be that of a gentleman, and they had never said or done anything out of the ordinary.

In her impression, Xiao Chengxiu rarely interfered in the affairs between her and Xiao Jingqiao. He would only comfort her with a few words when Xiao Jingqiao went too far. And that kind of comfort could be said to be very ordinary. Xiao Zhai The housekeepers paid much more attention to her than Xiao Chengxiu!

Now Xiao Chengxiu told her that he liked her...

Was she stupid or was he stupid?

Of course, regardless of whether he really liked her or not, she couldn't stay in this company anymore. Why? To be conservative, if there is no result between them, but after such an incident, she is not thick-skinned enough to pretend that nothing happened, and she is still Xiao Chengxiu's secretary and fan girl as before. To put it boldly, , if she really had an affair with Xiao Chengxiu, she wouldn't be able to stay in the secretarial department anymore.

She is more inclined to think that nothing good will happen between them. After all

, the original owner had an engagement with Xiao Jingqiao. Everyone in the upper class knew that she was once his brother's girlfriend and fiancée. Suddenly she turned around and she broke off the engagement with Xiao Jingqiao and then got together with him... This kind of thing is just letting go.

People would talk about it in ordinary families, let alone wealthy ones.

Maybe some people thought it was him, the eldest brother, who coveted his younger sister-in-law, so they interfered with the marriage.

It was obvious that Xiao Chengxiu had drunk a lot of alcohol yesterday. He must have been dizzy for a moment! A shrewd and steady person like him is now impulsive. When he regains his senses and calms down, won't she become cannon fodder between the two brothers? If she didn't hug the Xiao family's thigh by then, it would become a joke.

Although her engagement to Xiao Jingqiao was canceled, she became Mrs. Xiao's goddaughter, and with the support of the Sang family, her future could not be better than before she traveled through time. If she had an inappropriate relationship with Xiao Chengxiu, it would be a blessing or a curse. She had never liked an adventurous life, so she couldn't give in to money and power just because Xiao Chengxiu was the richest man, or because he was the best in the world. ah.

The money of Xiao Jingqiao, a fool, is easy to make, but the money of big boss Xiao Chengxiu... can't be seen from a distance.

Sang Yao, you have to weigh how much you weigh! Don’t be too confident!

With such a happy decision, she will submit her resignation next week.

"Hey, the annual meeting will be held soon." Wei Jing said with anticipation, "I heard that the company was very generous. Last year, a girl from the finance department won a car. I really hope that I can have such a good fortune. You're lucky, you don't have to squeeze into the subway every day if you have a car."

Ada mercilessly exposed her fantasy, "You have to be able to get a ticket if you have a car. And with the traffic conditions in Beijing, it's better to drive than squeeze into the subway. Well, my car is basically parked, and my husband and I always go to work on the subway. "

"Well, I don't expect a car anymore. I hope I can get a two-person trip to the Maldives." Wei Jing paused. He also said, "I don't know how many year-end bonuses our employees who just came this year will have."

Year-end bonus? ?

Sang Yao quietly pricked up her ears and was no longer confused. She looked at Ada and decisively joined the conversation, "How many months' salary is the year-end bonus of our secretarial department?"

With her salary as an airborne soldier, this She definitely deserves the year-end award!

Before time travel, she heard from her classmates that the year-end bonus in most companies was one month's salary. If it's one month's salary, then she has to think about whether it's worth the awkwardness and torture she has to go through here again~

"Three months." Ada said, "Last year it was three months , I don’t know what it will be like this year. “

Three or three months? Doesn’t that add up to tens of thousands?

Sang Yao used to be a little poor girl. Even though she is a little rich woman now, she still adheres to the principle of "not letting go of any money that should be earned." If the year-end bonus is really that big, should she wait any longer? , it’s only a matter of more than a month anyway, why don’t you resign after you get your year-end bonus?

Just when Sang Yao was about to ask Ada when the year-end bonuses were usually distributed, the two people suddenly became quiet. She subconsciously turned her head and glanced sideways. Xiao Chengxiu came and stood at the entrance of the secretarial department.

! ! !

In the past, Sang Yao would definitely have smiled at Xiao Chengxiu. Now, let alone smiling, she felt a little awkward just looking at him...

What this man said to her last night, when he spoke last night The expression suddenly appeared clearly in front of her eyes.

Sang Yao reacted quickly and decisively looked away. Despite the huge pressure from a certain boss, she put her hands on the keyboard and typed blindly, as if she was very busy.

Xiao Chengxiu just stood at the door and looked at Sang Yao for a while.

Yesterday, he also went to her and said those words in one go. But surprisingly, he felt that he had been waiting for this day for a long time in his heart. After saying it, he felt much more relaxed. But looking at her dull expression at that time, he knew, Do not take too much strong medicine at one time. It is best to take it step by step. Therefore, he calmly asked her to rest early and wanted to give her a little buffer time.

Seeing that she was working and avoiding his gaze, Xiao Chengxiu was silent for a moment and then walked to his office.

After he left, Wei Jing patted her chest exaggeratedly: "It scared me to death. Mr. Xiao's aura is too strong. Did he find out that we were fishing at work?"

Ada regained her leisurely and calm appearance. "Don't worry, Mr. Xiao won't see irrelevant people or things in his eyes."

After all, Ada has been Xiao Chengxiu's secretary for a long time, and she still has a lot of experience in this regard.

"That's right." Wei Jing did not discuss this topic forever, and soon everyone began to get into work.

Sang Yao looked at the large row of incomprehensible sentences she typed blindly, her heart pounding, and she felt that Xiao Chengxiu had not responded yet, and she could no longer withstand the pressure.

Hey, you still need to be self-aware as a human being.

Everything about her body, even with a filter, only had a few advantages. Her appearance was indeed okay, but she felt that Xiao Chengxiu was not a person who paid attention to appearance. As for his personality, he was not very kind, at least not vicious... ...As for her working ability, it's just average. She doesn't hold back the secretarial department. A person like her who is extremely ordinary except for her appearance, how can He De be liked by such a top-notch person?

Could it be that the boss likes this kind of exciting feeling with a little taboo?

No, no, the boss is very normal. Based on her understanding of him, this should not be the reason.

If someone else, like Pei Chi, likes her, she thinks it's quite acceptable. After all, she's not bad now. But when she finds out that Xiao Chengxiu likes her, she finds it magical and incredible...

Sang Yao is unmotivated to work, repeatedly analyzing why Xiao Chengxiu She liked her because she liked something about her. Her phone vibrated. It was a message from Pei Chi, saying that he would be in the area at noon and asked her if she had time. If she had time, they could go have lunch together.

If she didn't know that Xiao Chengxiu liked her, she would definitely agree, but now that she knew that Xiao Chengxiu liked her, did she still want to get in touch with Pei Chi?

Obviously it can't be done.

According to Mrs. Xiao and Pei Chi, these two people can be called true friends, friends who have known each other for more than 20 years.

Just because of this relationship, she shouldn't have any contact with Pei Chi anymore.

Regardless of whether she and Xiao Chengxiu will get along, it's best not to have anything to do with his friends. It's too embarrassing. She doesn't enjoy the feeling of wandering between two men at all, especially when these two are considered... Boss, she will be the one who suffers if the car overturns one day. With her qualifications and IQ, she will definitely not be able to defeat the boss, so forget it! It’s not a good idea to continue on the old path of seeing through the world of mortals in a down-to-earth manner.

Fortunately, although Pei Chi's personal conditions are indeed very good, she has not been tempted by him so far, so even if she declines, it is not a pity.

After thinking about this clearly, Sang Yao politely replied to Pei Chi: "Sorry, I have been very busy recently and don't have time."

This is how men and women go on blind dates. Pei Chi asked her several times, and she declined several times, back and forth. , and he understood what she meant.

***

When Pei Chi sent the invitation to Sang Yao, he was near the Xiao family, but he didn't expect her to refuse. Moreover, she also emphasized that she was very busy during this period, which seemed to be hinting to him that he should not refuse during this period. Ask her again. This made Pei Chi a little surprised.

He felt that the development between him and Sang Yao had gone very smoothly in the past week or so. Basically, she would not refuse if he asked her to have dinner and watch a movie. He also knew the nature of her work. With her status, No one in the company would arrange a lot of work for her. He didn't believe that Sang Yao was so busy at work that she didn't even have time to go out for lunch.

It was obviously fine yesterday, but why is your tone so unfamiliar today?

Pei Chi sat in the car and thought for a long time. He suddenly had an idea. With Lao Xiao's attitude yesterday, it was possible that he had said something to Sang Yao that made her dare not agree to his invitation.

This is possible.

Pei Chi was still a little angry. Lao Xiao was really unkind. He didn't understand what kind of character his younger brother was. Who in this circle didn't know that Xiao Jingqiao was in love with someone else and repeatedly said that he wanted to cancel the engagement. Could it be that Sang Yao still wanted to do it? The right way to open up is to spend time with this person without any regrets?

And what did Lao Xiao say yesterday?

He only has one sister, Yayin. Does this mean that Sang Yao is not his sister?

Hearing this kind of thing really makes me angry.

Pei Chi still responded to the WeChat message very gently: "It's okay. If you are too busy at work, remember to have lunch. We will get together when you are free."

He had already thought about it and had to find time to have a good talk with Lao Xiao. , the reason why the negotiation failed yesterday was because both of them drank, and Lao Xiao looked obviously in a bad mood. He knew that there would probably be no results if the discussion continued.

At his age, he knows how difficult it is to meet a suitable and favorable person. It is precisely because he knows that he is unwilling to let go.

After lunch break in the afternoon and just after going to work, Sang Yao opened her mailbox and the phone on her desk rang. It was an internal call from Assistant Sun, asking her to send a document to Xiao Chengxiu for signature.

Sang Yao was speechless. She didn't know if she thought too much. After all, she had never been responsible for sending documents like this before. But when she thought about it again, she felt that she had thought too much. Xiao Chengxiu was not the kind of person who didn't distinguish between public and private matters.

But after what happened last night, how should she get along with Xiao Chengxiu.

No matter what, the document still had to be sent. Sang Yao came to Ada's desk and explained her purpose.

Ada was also a little surprised, knowing that she was responsible for this document.

Assistant Sun probably knew Sang Yao's identity a long time ago, so she was assigned very little work. She and Wei Jing were not fools, so they naturally guessed that Sang Yao had a backstage, but they didn't expect Sang Yao to They are actually an unmarried couple with Second Young Master Xiao, even though they have broken up now.

Now this document must have been arranged by Assistant Sun over the phone, so why?

Ada has always felt that the aura between Sang Yao and Mr. Xiao is a bit strange. They might say they are a couple, but they don't look like it. They might say they are not a couple, but the two of them give people a fishy feeling. It's hard to guess. Impenetrable.

Sang Yao took the documents and knocked on the door of Xiao Chengxiu's office. When she heard him say "come in," she pushed the door open and went in.

She kept doing psychological construction along the way. Although it was incredible that the boss fell in love with her, she couldn't be confused. The one who confessed to her didn't panic. Instead, she tossed and turned. After a night of insomnia... this is a weak person in terms of momentum, so hopeless!

"Mr. Xiao, this document needs your signature." Sang Yao handed the document to Xiao Chengxiu's hand and said softly.

Xiao Chengxiu's reaction was no different from before. He was still as calm as ever. He picked up a pen and signed his name at the bottom of the document. Sang Yao didn't dare to look around while standing in front of the desk.

"Here you are."

Xiao Chengxiu returned the document to her again. The document was open, not closed. When Sang Yao was about to close the document, she saw a sticky note attached to the signed page.

Above it is Xiao Chengxiu's sharp handwriting: "Let's have dinner together tonight, okay?"

? ?

! ! !

Sang Yao suddenly looked up at Xiao Chengxiu, who had a faint smile in his eyes.

He, what on earth does he mean!

Seeing that Xiao Chengxiu seemed to be waiting for his answer, Sang Yao pursed her lips and nodded gently.

He said something like that yesterday, which kept her awake all night. She should explain something. It couldn't be so unclear, right? It should be clear what he meant, right?

After Sang Yao left the office, Xiao Chengxiu still managed to calm down and finish the work at hand, before making an internal call to ask Assistant Sun to come in.

Assistant Sun thought Xiao Chengxiu had some orders, so he didn't dare to waste a moment. He immediately came over and stood in front of the desk waiting for the boss's instructions.

Xiao Chengxiu was also browsing the review website. He always felt that there was a generation gap between himself and Sang Yao. This was inevitable, so even if he was just looking for a place to eat, he wanted to be careful.

"Are there any better restaurants around here?" Xiao Chengxiu paused and said, "It's a little quieter, and of course, it has to taste good."

Assistant Sun was a little confused, and after coming back to his senses, he hurriedly said, "There are some restaurants nearby. There are many restaurants. I wonder what kind of cuisine you want to eat, Mr. Xiao?"

Xiao Chengxiu thought for a moment, "As long as it tastes good, it doesn't matter what kind of food it is, and the environment should be better."

He found that Sang Yao seemed to like food.

He still hopes that she can enjoy herself when eating with him.

Assistant Sun finally recommended a restaurant that specializes in creative dishes and is very popular among white-collar workers in the area. Because the price per person is not affordable, the daily business is not so popular that you need to queue up. Assistant Sun even called to reserve a private room.

In the afternoon, Xiao Chengxiu rarely got off work on time. He picked up the car keys and came to the secretarial department. Ada and Wei Jing were originally discussing whether there were any activities in the supermarket recently. When they saw Xiao Chengxiu coming, they were so frightened that they hurried back. He sat in his own seat and pretended to work very tacitly.

Sang Yao knew that Xiao Chengxiu was waiting for her. She picked up her bag and coat and greeted Ada and Wei Jing: "I'm leaving first. See you tomorrow." Sang

Yao came to Xiao Chengxiu's side and said carefully: "I'm off work."

Xiao Chengxiu nodded, "Okay, let's go. Are you hungry?"

Sang Yao was nervous, "It's okay."

The two of them said as they walked towards the elevator.

After Wei Jing braved the courage to peek in and saw Sang Yao and Xiao Chengxiu leaving side by side, she said to Ada in a strange way: "Why do I feel that something is wrong with Mr. Xiao?"

Ada gestured to her neck with her hand, "Discuss boss Those who live in private will be killed immediately!"

Wei Jing: "..."

Xiao Chengxiu and Sang Yao both took the special elevator to the parking lot. It was just after work time and there was no one in the parking lot. Sang Yao seemed to be guilty of committing crimes. It was so fast that when she arrived at Xiao Cheng's repair car, she opened the door as quickly as possible and slipped in.

This person really can't feel guilty. She used to be so magnanimous. Now, although she is no longer tied to Xiao Jingqiao, she is still a little worried about being seen getting off work with Xiao Chengxiu.

Xiao Chengxiu noticed her little gesture and was stunned for a moment to realize that there was an obvious smile in his eyes.

Xiao Chengxiu didn't talk to Sang Yao along the way. He wanted to give her time to adapt. If he wanted to say anything, he would tell her after dinner.

Sang Yao didn't know why Xiao Chengxiu was so silent today. He didn't speak on the way, and he didn't speak during the meal. Except for communicating with the waiter to order dishes, he kept his microphone closed during the whole process.

When Sang Yao put down his chopsticks, Xiao Chengxiu said calmly: "Are you full?"

"Yes." Sang Yao nodded.

"I'm afraid that telling you while eating will affect your appetite." Xiao Chengxiu paused, "I still have to eat well, so I'll say it now, okay?"

Sang Yao always felt that Xiao Chengxiu was strange today, although he didn't say it She didn't say anything, and she didn't express anything specifically, but she just felt his little tenderness.

Help!

She hasn't said anything yet, so she has already made up so much in her head? ?

She nodded cautiously.

Xiao Chengxiu then looked at her and said, "What I said yesterday was not drunkenness. Maybe I drank a little too much and my mind was indeed not very clear, but when I said those words to you, I was very sober."

Sang Yao listened to this His eyes were wandering, and he didn't dare to look at him.

She was actually a little nervous. Being confessed by such a big shot made her palms sweat.

Such a man, who even in his fantasies would appear to have no talent, actually has such thoughts for her. Emotions tell her that whoever she marries is not a matter of marriage. She should cry with joy when a top-notch person like Xiao Chengxiu falls in love with her, but reason tells her. She, she couldn't beat this person. The wealthy family was too deep. Xiao Chengxiu liked her now, but after they were really together, he knew that she was actually such an ordinary person. How should she deal with herself then?

Now that the cards in her hand are so good, her current situation is a level that she could not reach in her life before she traveled through time. She is really afraid of taking a wrong step, because it will prove that she really has nothing but a face, even if she is given She had good conditions and opportunities, but she still couldn't live a good life.

If Sang Yao looks at Xiao Chengxiu at this time, you will find how deep his eyes are.

"I know what you are worried about, and I also know that you don't like me." Xiao Chengxiu was also very nervous, but his many years of experience as a superior allowed him to be clear-cut and seemingly calm in this situation, " The reason why I said those words to you yesterday was because I saw you and Pei Chi together, which made me realize that besides me, there are many people who like you. I don’t want to wait until you are with someone else or even after you get married. You don’t know what I’m thinking about you.”

“I don’t mean to force you. Don’t worry, I will give you time to think about it.” Xiao Chengxiu paused and his tone became lower. “During the time you are thinking about it, I will get rid of the identity of big brother and let you see what I am like. I will also be ready to remove all unnecessary obstacles. When you decide to be with me, you don't have to worry about anything else. "

This is. This was the first time that Xiao Chengxiu had said so many things to someone that had nothing to do with study or work since he was a child.

"If you don't want to be with me, that's okay. There's no need to feel pressure. If you're still willing then, I will also arrange a wedding banquet for you and the Xiao family. From now on, I..." He was silent for a moment, "He is your brother. He will not have any other thoughts. He will treat you just like he did to Yayin, so that you can live a safe and happy life."

Sang Yao looked at the person in front of him blankly, and suddenly realized that she was actually with Xiao Chengxiu. It was very strange, just like now, he was not saying these words to her as Mr. Xiao or as Xiao Jingqiao's eldest brother, but she was... very strange, as if she had never known him before, and now he is the most ordinary Yes, the man who likes her.

"You don't have to worry about anything. You only need to consider one thing during this period, and that is whether you want to be with me." Xiao Chengxiu said, "I don't need an answer right now. You can think about it slowly. Don't worry. This is right." It's important to me. I hope you make your choice after careful consideration, and I hope you won't regret this choice in the future. Sang Yao, I just want to tell you that you have absolute freedom in this matter. You have the right to choose, and I will absolutely respect your choice. "

The author has something to say: Two updates in one = =

There is a trick in this chapter. The night when the eldest brother confesses is Chuxue 23333, who

is going on a trip tomorrow (don't worry it won't break). Updates, the current plan is as follows, double updates on Nos. 1-4, three updates on Nos. 5-9, at least double updates)

Even though no one invites me, I will still share the things I must bring with me when I travel to give readers who travel. Reference: bed sheets and duvet covers, Dumoc lactulose, black coffee (both of these have a great effect on defecation for me, I am prone to constipation when traveling abroad), melatonin (I have 1., recognize the bed, sleep outside prone to insomnia), disposable toilet mats (must have), portable hot water bottles (you know, the hot water bottles in hotels will never be used again in this life 2333)

Chapter 67 Turn off the lights small medium large Previous chapter: Chapter 66Next chapter: Chapter 68 After listening to Xiao Chengxiu's words, Sang Yao remained silent.

She didn't know what to say or what to respond to.

Although she believed in Xiao Chengxiu's character, after his drunken confession last night, when she faced him, she had secretly overturned her previous understanding of him. Facing the love of such a big shot, Sang Yao felt no pride, but indescribable panic and discomfort.

Before traveling through time, she had also met some rich second generations and seen their views on relationships. They had unique conditions and could do many things as they pleased. She knew that an ordinary person like her would definitely not be able to compare with them. , they said they liked her, and showed how much they cared about her, and could do anything for her, as if she was the stronger one. After all, everyone else's happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy were in her hands, but she was the only one. Only then did they realize that they could afford to play this kind of love game, but she couldn't.

Just like Xiao Chengxiu, she believes that he must like her now, there is no doubt about it, but if one day he gets tired of it, feels bored, or no longer likes her for one reason or another, then wait for her What is it?

Everyone knows that she is Xiao Jingqiao’s ex-fiancée, and everyone knows that she had such a relationship.

Xiao Chengxiu's guarantee, in Sang Yao's opinion, is not that it is not credible, but that she does not believe in this world. When he likes her and pursues her to no avail, he can really take a step back and choose to be her brother. ? Human emotions are not easy to control. Who would really be willing to be the brother of the person they like without getting it? This kind of talk is just a lie to children.

But she really wanted to be a child for once.

Xiao Chengxiu seemed to understand what she was thinking. When the two came out of the restaurant, he walked very slowly and whispered: "I rarely make promises to others. My grandfather taught me since I was a child that you must keep your promises. Some things are up to you." It seems incredible, but I have been struggling and hesitating here for a long time. If I didn't have the confidence to protect you, I wouldn't say this."

He paused, "Sang Yao, I won't do this this year . When you are thirty, you don't have to get what you want when you are twenty, nor do you get angry when you don't get it."

Sang Yao said in gratitude.

"It's still early. There is a cinema here. Do you want to go see a movie?" Xiao Chengxiu thought for a while and added: "If you don't want to go, you can just refuse. No need to force it. From this little thing, you learn to refuse and I learn to accept." "

Sang Yao lowered her head. She didn't want to go to the movie, but her mind was confused at the moment. She raised her hand and glanced at the time and said, "Let's go and see it. I also want to relax."

Xiao Chengxiu nodded. , the two of them came to the theater on the fifth floor together. Sang Yao was about to buy a ticket, but Xiao Chengxiu stopped her, "I have already bought it in advance. There are three movies in about the same time period. Which one do you want to watch?" "

Three movies, that means buying six tickets?

Sang Yao was shocked.

After she reacted, she understood Xiao Chengxiu's intention. He was telling her that no matter whether she watched the movie or not, he would make all preparations in advance. When she decided what to choose, she would have no worries. have.

Is that what you mean?

What I have to admit is that Sang Yao really likes this.

Finally, they went to see a comedy movie. You don’t need to think about it when watching a comedy movie. It’s the best way to kill time. When Sang Yao didn’t notice, Xiao Chengxiu had already taken a photo of the movie ticket stub, and then updated his first post. In the circle of friends, nothing was said, just a photo, and in the photo were two movie tickets.

What was Xiao Chengxiu's intention? When he found out that Sang Yao and Pei Chi were on a blind date, he went to Pei Chi's WeChat Moments. Recently, he posted on his WeChat Moments that he went to see a movie. Their mutual friend Song Ling asked him who he was watching with, and Pei Chi replied with a comment saying with his future girlfriend.

No matter what age a man is, he is unambiguous when he should be childish. When Sang Yao was playing with his mobile phone in the car, he came across Xiao Chengxiu's circle of friends. After careful consideration, he knew what was going on.

Before she could say anything, she heard the thirty-year-old man driving in the driver's seat say in a deep voice: "Don't play with your mobile phone while in the car. It's not good for your eyes. You can play with it after you get back."

Sang Yao: ...It's so quick . Have you stepped into the role of boyfriend? Ha, man.

Although she was complaining in her heart, Sang Yao honestly put her phone back into her bag. She felt that she was really going to resign.

Otherwise, how aggrieved she would be if Xiao Chengxiu's remaining power in the company was unconsciously left in her life.

Sang Yao sat in the passenger seat and said after being quiet for a while: "I'm going to resign."

Xiao Chengxiu was not surprised by her decision, "Then have you thought about what you will do after resigning?"

Sang Yao shook her head. , "I haven't thought about it yet."

Where can she find a boss who is so protective of her? Where can she find a job with less work and more money? It's impossible to stay at home and do nothing every day, or she will get moldy.

"There's no rush." Xiao Chengxiu's tone became gentle again, "You can think about it slowly. It's not too late to resign after you have thought about it. Most people in the workplace are like this. They find a job first and then resign. In a few days The company also has an annual meeting, which should be quite interesting. You can also enjoy paid leave during the Spring Festival. If you want to take a longer break, you can tell Assistant Sun that you will be granted annual leave in advance. "

So good? "

Sang Yao didn't believe it: "I have only been in the company for a few months. In other companies, don't you only get annual leave after one year of employment?"

Xiao Chengxiu replied: "Our company is more humane.

" Sang Yao: "Really?"

Maybe. This layer of window paper was pierced. The way Sang Yao and Xiao Chengxiu talked was different from before. Just like now, Xiao Chengxiu actually showed his temper. When Sang Yao asked this, he pretended to be serious and said: "They will be more humane to some employees."

Sang Yao: "..."

We just had a meal and watched a movie together, and then started talking in a flirty mode? If he hadn't been Xiao Chengxiu, if he had been another man, he would have definitely been kicked out!

Sang Yao and Xiao Chengxiu now live in the same community, which is much more convenient.

After watching the movie, Xiao Chengxiu truly showed in front of Sang Yao what it would be like to be a thirty-year-old successful man pursuing someone. Maybe he deliberately wanted her to relax, so he behaved differently than usual. Same.

He probably wanted her to feel most intuitively the difference between being Xiao Jingqiao's eldest brother, being the president of the Xiao family, and being the man who pursues her.

Sang Yao thought that this conversation with Xiao Chengxiu would put them in an awkward and awkward situation, but she didn't expect that under his intentional or unintentional hints and guidance, she seemed to be more relaxed than before. Some.

Probably it was the "preference" he showed that made her finally feel like she was liked.

What does it mean to be liked? At least she can "dominate others" in a short period of time, which means that her temper can be accepted by the other party in a short period of time.

Do you just need to follow your heart?

It seemed that for so many years, there was only one person who said this to her. She didn't care about anything, didn't have to worry about anything, only needed to consider her own mood. This kind of experience was really luxurious.

Although Sang Yao loves money as much as her life, such luxury is more overwhelming to her than the jewelry in the original owner's cabinet.

She felt unworthy, but she couldn't help being attracted.

She knew what Xiao Chengxiu wanted. What he wanted was her willingness and sincerity. In this case, she had to be sincere. After all, reality told her not to play tricks with people who are much smarter than herself. If It's not because she sincerely wants to be with him, she just wants to be the richest person, so even if she can deceive him for a while, she can't deceive him forever.

Even an ordinary person like her hates being deceived and teased, let alone him.

It's just...

Sang Yao took out her mobile phone and sent Xiao Chengxiu a WeChat message with determination: "What if I never have an answer?"

Xiao Chengxiu quickly replied: "It doesn't matter. This is a very important matter. , Even if you think about it for one year or ten years, it doesn't matter."

Sang Yao held her mobile phone in her hand, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, crossed her arms, and looked at the night view of the city with a sad expression.

***

Xiao Chengxiu did not go to work that day, but took a plane to a nearby city and found his father, Mr. Xiao, in the hotel. Mr. Xiao was surprised to see his eldest son coming over: "The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and it is the busiest time. Why do you still have time to come here on a business trip?"

"No, I'm here to see you." Xiao Chengxiu sat upright and looked at Mr. Xiao firmly.

The relationship between father and son is not very deep, and most of their communications over the years have centered around the company and work. But Xiao Chengxiu knew very well that the path he was going to take was not an easy one. The first thing he needed to get was his father's approval.

Mr. Xiao took a sip of coffee and said with a leisurely attitude, "What's the matter? Just tell me. I guess it's not about work."

As a father, he knows his eldest son very well. His son is far better now than he was back then. Much more, and it is precisely because of this that he can live so comfortably now.

"Yes." Xiao Chengxiu nodded. He did not mince words and said straightforwardly: "Dad, I like someone."

Mr. Xiao was a little surprised, but he quickly calmed down and asked: "Who is it? "

Sang Yao." Xiao Chengxiu answered calmly without any retreat.

Mr. Xiao stared at him and took several more sips of coffee. He was no longer as casual as before. After a moment of silence, he asked: "Do you know the consequences? Do you know what you are going to face?" "

I know."

Mr. Xiao asked again, "Can you afford it?" Xiao

Chengxiu: "Yes."

If he is sure that he can do it and can afford it, he will not take this step.

Although feelings cannot be freely retracted, at least they must be able to take responsibility for their own choices and decisions, and be able to afford the price.

Mr. Xiao waved his hand and said calmly, "Okay, I understand, just do whatever you want."

Chapter 68 Turn off the lights small medium large Previous chapter: Chapter 67Next chapter: Chapter 69 The reason why Xiao Chengxiu came to Mr. Xiao was not to gain support from anyone, but because he needed to let his father know about this matter.

He didn't want the parents on both sides to know about this matter without Sang Yao's consent and before the relationship was settled. On the one hand, he was indeed afraid of unnecessary obstruction, which would make Sang Yao shrink back; I am also worried that after weighing the pros and cons and seeing his determination, the parents on both sides will unconsciously hope that Sang Yao can be with him. All in all, he didn't want any factors to affect Sang Yao's choice.

He just wanted her to follow her heart.

As soon as Xiao Chengxiu returned to the company and entered the office, Xiao Jingqiao went upstairs to see him. Assistant Sun was still standing aside waiting for Xiao Chengxiu's reply.

Since that incident, Xiao Chengxiu has told Assistant Sun that anyone in the company who wants to see him must obtain his consent except at work. He emphasized the sentence "Anyone", and Assistant Sun understood what it meant.

In fact, Xiao Chengxiu knew very well what his younger brother Jingqiao was thinking. He also understands his brother's temperament, how big his style is, and what his abilities are. Once Sang Yao takes the initiative to terminate the engagement with Jingqiao, it means that Jingqiao will not be able to do anything at all. Jingqiao has relied on it from beginning to end. It's just Sang Yao's feelings. He can't hurt anyone except Sang Yao. Now that Sang Yao has let go of Jingqiao, no matter what Jingqiao does or says, it's not worth taking to heart.

"Let him come in." Xiao Chengxiu said.

Xiao Jingqiao looked a lot more haggard and thinner. When he came in, he and his eldest brother were the only ones in the whole office. When he saw the calm and composed expression on his eldest brother's face, he couldn't say those cruel words he had planned.

"Aren't you afraid that I will tell Mom everything?" Xiao Jingqiao was not only unwilling to give in, he was simply aggrieved. The elder brother he had respected and admired since childhood actually snatched his fiancée right under his nose. , isn't this a great shame? Does the eldest brother regard him as a younger brother at all?

Seeing that Xiao Chengxiu didn't respond and was still looking down at the documents, Xiao Jingqiao blurted out in frustration and anger, "I will tell my parents all these things! Let them know what good things you have done!"

Xiao Chengxiu Finally raising his head, he capped the pen and looked at him calmly, "Are you this stupid already? You threatened me with your parents, where is your brain?"

Xiao Jingqiao didn't say anything, but looked at him very angrily. he.

"Then I'll just say it," Xiao Chengxiu stood up, walked to Xiao Jingqiao, and glanced at him, "Who do you think you are? You were fooled by those two clowns named Shen and Zhou, and you lost your mind. Really? Who made you think that Sang Yao would only like such a good-for-nothing like you?"

Xiao Jingqiao's face turned red.

"I think anyone with a brain can see what those two people did. You are the only one who is still addicted to it. You even want to abandon your fiancée of many years. You think you are very cool and powerful, right? From the beginning to the end, you Even if his family, company and even his parents were regarded as one-tenth as important as that of Shen, this kind of thing would never happen. "Xiao Chengxiu was rarely so merciless, but he also tolerated it during this time. a lot of.

"Why do you say I'm worthless?! It's just because you are the boss and everything is given to you!"

"Get out." Xiao Chengxiu sat back at his desk, too lazy to look at him again.

Xiao Jingqiao felt very aggrieved, but after such a conversation, he really stopped thinking about telling all this to his parents.

For no other reason, he was actually very afraid. He was afraid that even though he was the injured party, in the end his parents chose the eldest brother, and even supported the eldest brother to be with Sang Yao, just because the eldest brother liked it, and because the eldest brother was the decision-maker of the family and the company. The person is the most important person.

That would truly prove that he is worthless.

When Xiao Jingqiao came out of the office, he happened to pass by the secretarial department and saw Sang Yao printing documents in front of the printer. His frustration turned into grievance again.

He thought that anyone in the world could betray him, but she wouldn't, but she left him so easily.

He wanted to go over and talk to her.

But thinking of the post she posted on Moments, he laughed at himself and walked to the elevator, clenching his hands subconsciously. What does it mean to mistake family and friendship for love? Could it be that the relationship we had for so many years was just friendship? ridiculous. Do you want to get rid of him so much?

Xiao Jingqiao walked into the elevator and looked at the ridiculous version of himself on the mirror wall. He knew that the reason why he lost control was because he found that Sang Yao really didn't love him anymore.

He thought that the person who was completely unimportant to him and even couldn't wait to get rid of him, when he really left him, he felt as if he had lost the whole world.

Sang Yao naturally knew that Xiao Jingqiao was looking at him. In the past, he had no choice but to hold his nose and deal with him. Now that the engagement has been terminated, he should stop trying to get a look from her. If she ignores him, he should steal it. Laughing, it's best not to come up to her and disgust her without any sense of humor.

***

Not long after Sang Yao returned home from work, Mrs. Xiao came, carrying a thermos pot of old hen soup stewed by the kitchen aunt, saying that she needed to replenish her body in winter.

Mrs. Xiao looked at Sang Yao sipping the soup with a kind face. When the atmosphere was good, she pretended to ask casually: "Yao Yao, how are you getting along with Pei Chi now? Is it going well?"

Sang Yao paused. Pei Chi had asked her out several times, but she declined them all. "Auntie, Pei Chi and I are not very suitable. Our personalities don't match. And I don't have that feeling for him either. I don't want to waste each other's time." " Mrs. Xiao didn't notice that Sang Yao

had changed her name from "Mom" to "Aunt". She was very anxious and said anxiously: "Didn't you say that we got along well? "Why is it inappropriate again?"

She felt helpless, but she still said patiently: "I have no plans to fall in love yet, Auntie, I feel that Pei Chi is not suitable for me, and I am not suitable for him. For me, dealing with such a no-call relationship It's also very hard. I want...a more relaxed life."

Mrs. Xiao thought she had not yet come out of the shadow of Jingqiao, and sighed deeply. Yaoyao seemed to have a soft temper, but she was actually very soft-tempered. As a person with strong opinions, she no longer wanted to have contact with Pei Chi, so she couldn't force her to do something she didn't like. She could only say regretfully: "Okay then."

Sang Yao's phone vibrated. , she turned on her phone and found that it was a message from Xiao Chengxiu. She glanced at Mrs. Xiao carefully and found that the other party was lost and did not notice her. She then clicked on the message: "Have you eaten?"

Could it be that he was coming to find her ? ? Sang Yao quickly replied: "Auntie is here to bring me chicken soup."

She didn't really want Mrs. Xiao to know about this. Mrs. Xiao already had a headache because she and Xiao Jingqiao had broken off their engagement, and now Xiao Chengxiu is added to the mix. , I’m afraid Mrs. Xiao can’t accept it either. Even if she gets together with Xiao Chengxiu later, this matter must be taken slowly. Now is definitely not the time to let Mrs. Xiao know about it.

Xiao Chengxiu replied: "Yes, I understand."

Mrs. Xiao stayed at Sang Yao's place for more than half an hour. Seeing that it was getting late, she picked up her bag and another thermos and stood up, "Yao Yao, I'll go first Let's go. Your elder brother should be back. I'm going to bring him some soup. It just so happens that I have something to do with him. "

You really don't do anything bad, and you're not afraid of ghosts knocking on your door." After hearing this, Sang Yao couldn't help but think a lot.

Mrs. Xiao went out, and Sang Yao, like Xiao Chengxiu, was delivering information: "Auntie is going to see you now, saying she has something to do with you."

In order to show that she was not nervous at all, Sang Yao sent another emoticon. Pack it over.

Xiao Chengxiu had just returned home not long ago. He was sitting on the sofa in the living room. He smiled when he saw the message. He brushed off the fatigue from working overtime before and replied: "Yes, received, don't worry."

... ...

...

Very Quickly, Mrs. Xiao knocked on Xiao Chengxiu's door.

Mrs. Xiao looked at the cyan color under her eldest son's eyes and said while serving him soup: "You are such a kid. Even if you are busy at work, you can't ignore your own health. The same is true in Jingqiao. In other families, the two brothers are all in love with each other." Support, he is good, but he is causing trouble to the family day by day, and you don’t have any helpers. You have to do everything by yourself. Let me tell you, your father is not a human being. He doesn’t care about anything. He leaves the company to you and is satisfied by himself.

"It's okay, I'm used to it." Xiao Chengxiu comforted her, "I'll be busy at the end of the year. It'll be fine when this time passes." "

Hey, it's really worrying." He had a sad look on his face before, but when he saw his son later, he simply started to talk, "What do you think you young people are thinking about? One or two of them are too disturbing, and so is Yaoyao."

Xiao Chengxiu paused. After a pause, he asked casually, "What's wrong with her?"

"I have a headache when I talk about this. By the way, I haven't told you yet. I was so busy that I forgot. Isn't your friend Pei Chi still single? I feel that he and Yaoyao are very suitable. Yaoyao also agreed to contact Pei Chi at the beginning, and the two of them even arranged to have dinner and go to the movies." Mrs. Xiao was worried when talking about this, "I was still worried at the beginning. I thought there must be something going on between these two people, but I didn't have time to be happy. I went to see Yaoyao just now, and she actually told me that she and Pei Chi were not suitable. She had no feelings for Pei Chi and didn't want to have any more contact with him. "

Xiao Cheng . Xiu was stunned for a moment and lowered his head to hide the smile on his face. He felt that today's soup tasted particularly delicious and he wasn't so tired anymore. "Oh, did she really say that?"

"Yeah, why didn't you say she didn't? " I like Pei Chi. I think there's really nothing wrong with this young man. Everything is good." Mrs. Xiao paused and saw that her eldest son was in a good mood and said, "Chengxiu, Mom has thought about it. You still need to find a solid and reliable person for Yaoyao. Look at your friends who are qualified and single. As a big brother, help Yaoyao introduce a boyfriend! "

Xiao Chengxiu: "... "I can't laugh anymore.

Chapter 69 Turn off the lights small medium large Previous chapter: Chapter 68Next chapter: Chapter 70 The more Mrs. Xiao thought about it, the more she thought it was a good idea. If the people she and her second son were friends with, the friends she had with her eldest son were basically social elites and successful people. Apart from anything else, the eldest son was there to take care of things. Her character and family background are absolutely guaranteed. Instead of asking the eldest son to introduce her to the ladies with whom she has good connections, she also knows the thoughts of those ladies. In order to promote a marriage, she can make everything look white. Yes, this kind of thing happens all the time.

"I remember that all of your friends seem to be single." Mrs. Xiao was very confident in her memory. "Chengxiu, you must not be unmindful of Yaoyao's affairs. After all, it is our Xiao family that feels sorry for her. I am like this What I'm thinking about is that there is a saying that makes people let go of their last relationship, either with a new love or with time. I don't want Yaoyao to be so depressed all the time. It makes me feel so distressed, so I will introduce her to a reliable man. My friend, by the way, the family background cannot be bad. I don’t want Yaoyao to worry about her future life. The character must be good, the work ability must be good, the character should be mature and steady, and also, the private life must not be imprudent. , Yaoyao is too innocent, I don’t want her to be deceived by others. "

I can’t drink this chicken soup.

Xiao Chengxiu raised his head and looked at Mrs. Xiao and said, "Mom, please don't introduce anyone to Sang Yao recently."

"Why?" Mrs. Xiao looked confused.

"I hope she will focus on her work." Xiao Chengxiu said seriously, "If anything happens after the New Year, please don't worry about Sang Yao's affairs recently. She is very good, and she is not sad at all.

Mrs. Xiao looked at Xiao Chengxiu suspiciously, "How do you know so well? And what does it mean to focus on work? You really treat her as an employee under you. I said, don't arrange too much work for her. " , don't let her get tired. Don't try to deal with it. I think Song Ling is okay, but I don't know how her private life is. Go and ask."

Xiao Chengxiu was very helpless. He didn't say anything, and Mrs. Xiao just took him as his wife. Agree.

It’s almost the Chinese New Year, and young people are thinking about year-end bonuses and all kinds of fun. As for the elders, it is inevitable that they will ask “how much does it cost per month?” “When will you get married?” “Have you bought a house?”...

Since Xiao Chengxiu is the richest man, all Mrs. Xiao can care about and worry about is his personal problems.

Mrs. Xiao sighed deeply, "It will be February soon, and there is less than a year until the end of the year. Where can I find my daughter-in-law? The signature at Nanling Temple is too inaccurate. He also said that you will get married at the end of next year, and now it is next year, and you still don’t have a girlfriend. I think this is very suspenseful. This Nanling Temple really makes me sad.” I

heard my mother say this in the past . , Xiao Chengxiu was basically silent, but this time he was uncharacteristically, and suddenly said: "I already have someone I like."

Mrs. Xiao was still immersed in her own world, but when she heard such words, her eyes lit up , and immediately asked: "What, is it true? Do you have someone you like? Who is it?"

Seeing his mother so happy because he has someone he likes, Xiao Chengxiu still felt very guilty. In the past few years, he has really This made my mother worried. After thinking about it, she said: "Yes, but I haven't caught up with her yet, so I won't tell you some things. When one day she likes me too, I will take her home." "

Mrs. Xiao was overjoyed. She felt that her eldest son would not lie to her. As a mother, she also felt that no one would dislike her son! It seems that Nanling Temple’s signature is still accurate!

Xiao Chengxiu said again: "Mom, no matter who I like, no matter who that person is, you will support me?"

Mrs. Xiao just nodded, and then asked cautiously: "It can't be a man, right?"

She was also a little scared Well, after all, the eldest son’s words made people couldn’t help but think about something.

"...No." Xiao Chengxiu was helpless.

"Then I'm relieved." Mrs. Xiao looked at her son and said, "No matter who my son likes, I will support him. As long as my son is happy, I will be happy."

Well, her requirements have been lowered to as long as he is not a man. That's enough. Of course, it would be better if the other party's conditions are good.

Xiao Chengxiu thought for a while and said, "Thank you."

Maybe you will forget what you said today, but it is enough.

Therefore, Mrs. Xiao only thought that Xiao Chengxiu either fell in love with a poor man from an ordinary family, or he fell in love with some scandal-ridden female star. No matter, she really doesn't have any requirements. She believes that her son's vision can make her eldest son like her daughter-in-law.

***

Xiao Chengxiu actually doesn’t know what Sang Yao likes, but this does not prevent him from learning from people online, so so far, he feels that his performance is okay. He knows that there are celebrities holding concerts here recently, and he also heard that Sang Yao and Wei After discussing it quietly, he asked an acquaintance to book the two tickets with the best seats, and then asked Sang Yao to go to the concert with him.

Sang Yao was still surprised. After all, he always felt that Xiao Chengxiu's suit and leather shoes did not match the style of the concert.

Thinking about it carefully, he probably also wanted to cater to her preferences, and wanted her to think that he was not boring, and could accompany her to do many things that were not consistent with his status, as long as she liked it.

Basically, Sang Yao would not refuse Xiao Chengxiu's invitation.

She still knows herself very well. Before Xiao Chengxiu confessed his feelings, she had been getting along with him for a while, and she had a certain understanding of him as a person and knew his advantages clearly. More importantly, Xiao Chengxiu and A blind date like Pei Chi is different. A person like him, at least at this moment, she really likes him. Although she thinks that she has not fallen in love with Xiao Chengxiu, he is different from others, because he clearly wants to exchange his sincerity for Sincerely, and she was willing to give it a try.

After get off work, the concert started at eight o'clock in the evening. Xiao Chengxiu was not in a hurry, and Sang Yao was not in a hurry either. After finishing the work at hand, she watched several videos on the company computer.

"Why do you like to watch other people eat?"

Sang Yao was originally lying on the table watching mukbang. When he heard this, he quickly sat up straight and subconsciously.

Looking up, Xiao Chengxiu didn't know when he had arrived at her desk, and he didn't know how long he had been looking at her like this.

"Just, I think it's quite interesting."

Watching mukbang is very relaxing.

Xiao Chengxiu nodded, "I've kept you waiting for too long," he pointed at the video, "Do you want to eat this? Let's go eat together."

Grandma was eating fried chicken, and she felt that Xiao Chengxiu would not like it. , shook his head decisively, "No, no, let's just eat."

"It's okay." Xiao Chengxiu smiled, "I always feel that you only look at things you want to eat, and I want to try it too."

"Really . Do you want to eat?" Sang Yao asked him hesitantly.

Winter is here, and she hasn't eaten fried chicken since time travel, and now she is indeed a little greedy.

The rice cake in the fried chicken is also delicious.

Whether it is spicy sauce or honey sauce, they are both delicious. Paired with a glass of Feizhai water, it is simply delicious.

Xiao Chengxiu smiled when he saw Sang Yao's expression, "Of course, I want to try it too. But I don't know what is delicious. You can recommend it."

"Okay!" Sang Yao became more energetic, "If you arrive I really don’t feel like eating, so it’s still early to go eat.”

After the two decided to eat fried chicken, they went to the parking lot after get off work. Xiao Jingqiao was sitting in the car. He was in a corner. He didn't know what he was thinking. When he saw that his eldest brother and Sang Yao had not left the car, he changed his plan and sat alone in the car. Now Looking back, was he going to see what these two people were doing after work? How ridiculous.

Just as he was about to leave, he saw Xiao Chengxiu and Sang Yao walking out of the elevator. The two got into Xiao Chengxiu's car and drove out of the parking lot soon.

Do you want to follow me again?

Xiao Jingqiao felt unwilling and aggrieved. Although he wanted to let everyone in his family know how shameful Xiao Chengxiu was, he still had reason and was afraid to see his parents choose the eldest brother between himself and his eldest brother. He could only hold back one person by himself. Bear with it, the friends he knew were trying to comfort him, but they were actually telling him that he had brought it upon himself. Who told him that he was not afraid of meat and vegetables, and that he had moved on and fell in love with an ordinary girl who was inferior to Sang Yao in everything? He wanted to scold them, but he did not give up on Sang Yao. ! He wants to marry Sang Yao! Someone took her away! But he couldn't say it, he could only endure it.

By the time Xiao Jingqiao came to his senses, he had already followed him in the car, full of reluctance, but he accidentally discovered something.

Following the big brother, there seemed to be something wrong with the car in front of him.

At first, this car was parked near the eldest brother's car. When the eldest brother drove out, the car also followed.

If things were left in the past, Xiao Jingqiao would never be too lazy to think too much, and he would never think so far, but today he couldn't help but have some doubts, could someone be following his eldest brother and Sang Yao, right?

This is possible. He once had a friend who had a relationship with a female artist. One time, his friend and the female artist happened to be riding in his car. They might have been bumped into by someone. The paparazzi were following him for more than a month. car.

But what is the purpose of following eldest brother and Sang Yao? Xiao Jingqiao's first reaction was that someone wanted to use this news to damage Xiao's image.

This is absolutely not possible! In fact, Xiao Jingqiao doesn't want anyone to know about Xiao Chengxiu and Sang Yao. If this happens, everyone will laugh at him even more. Then where will he put his face? Wouldn't he become the laughing stock of the entire circle? ?

Xiao Jinqiao picked up his mobile phone and dialed a certain number, reported the license plate number, and said expressionlessly: "Check for me about this car. I want to know as soon as possible."

If someone is really talking to his eldest brother and Sang Yao, Then he wanted to see who this person was.

Chapter 70 Turn off the lights small medium large Previous chapter: Chapter 69Next chapter: Chapter 71 With the popularity of a Korean drama a few years ago, there are more and more fried chicken restaurants in the country, but there are still a few that are well-known. Sang Yao knows that Xiao Chengxiu has never eaten this kind of fried chicken before. , thinking that the other party was eager to give it a try, she didn't want to let him down. Although it was probably not to his liking, she still searched for a lot of guides, and finally decided which one to go to after considering various reviews.

The business of this fried chicken restaurant is good, but today is still a working day after all. Most customers are taking out or taking away, and there are not many people eating in the store.

Sang Yao ordered some of the most popular items, and the two of them sat by the window.

Seeing Xiao Chengxiu slowly putting on disposable gloves and trying to take a bite of the fried chicken wrapped in Korean sweet and spicy sauce, Sang Yao looked at him very nervously, as if the other person had taken poison or an antidote.

Seeing her expression, Xiao Chengxiu commented honestly: "It's a food that young people will like. It's spicy and sweet, and it's okay."

Sang Yao ate the rice cake, thinking that Xiao Chengxiu said this to make her happy, so he said: "There is a restaurant nearby. Many office workers will eat simple meals there. It's not bad. You can try it later."

She didn't think Xiao Chengxiu liked fried chicken.

Sometimes Sang Yao also feels that she looks very Buddhist on the surface, but in fact, she is simply a spiritual person in her heart.

What an extreme contradiction, she is.

I don’t know whether to blame it on the current environment where the gap between rich and poor is too big. All in all, she is indeed a person who loves wealth. Before time travel, she was also pursued by some rich second generations. Of course, for those rich second generations In modern terms, it is not pursuit, but like chasing a cat or teasing a dog. Under their powerful power, if they meet a reasonable rich second generation, they are lucky. If they meet those who are not stingy, they can only bite the bullet and work hard to deal with them. . Even if she hates the other person in her heart, even if she is the one being pursued, she doesn't dare to show it.

If Xiao Chengxiu was a very ordinary person, and this happened in a very ordinary background, and he confessed to her, she would definitely reject it without even thinking about it, and would not give herself or the other party a chance to seriously consider it.

She knew that she was a person who was afraid of the strong and afraid of angering them. She was as timid as a mouse and had such low self-esteem in the face of a wealthy family. She felt that Xiao Chengxiu would not like her after he really got to know her. Well he will think he is blind. Originally, she was really impulsive and wanted to think about her and Xiao Chengxiu's affairs carefully because of the other party's sincerity. But just for a moment, seeing him looking out of place in the fried chicken restaurant, she felt that she still had to be a good person. It's a bit overwhelming.

Although she now appears to be the daughter of a wealthy family, only she knows who she is.

When common people and rich families are together, no matter how the TV series or the TV show tries to beautify it, one of them will always walk on thin ice and be cautious.

Xiao Chengxiu looked at Sang Yao and smiled, "To be honest, I haven't eaten this fried chicken very much. Since I can remember, the last time I ate it was when my grandma took me to eat it. It was just the kind of Chinese fried chicken. Later, I had it at home. The nutrition doctor doesn’t recommend eating it, so I have no chance to eat it. If I say I like it very much, I would be lying to you, but if I say I don’t like it, that’s not the case. I think it’s pretty good if I eat it once in a while

. I quite like fried chicken, I like it very much."

After Sang Yao said this, she said nothing and continued to eat fried chicken.

Someone has said that men and women belong to different camps, think differently, and see things differently.

Seeing Sang Yao like this, Xiao Chengxiu was stunned for a moment, and then fell into deep thought. With the deep relationship between Sang Yao and his brother Jingqiao for more than 20 years, she said that she liked fried chicken very much, and did she think of some things in the past? And inevitably have a sad mood?

***

The group that held the concert was very popular. The tickets for the concert were sold out within a few minutes. It was very lively outside and inside the venue, and the seats were almost full. Xiao Chengxiu asked someone to get the tickets at a very good location. Sang Yao is also a fan of this group and bought some support items outside the venue. She was holding a light stick in her hand and was studying how to put the stickers on her face. She saw Many fans did this, and they were a little excited for a while.

There were a lot of people coming and going, and everyone was queuing up to get in. Xiao Chengxiu turned around, took the facial patch from her hand, tore open the wrapping paper, and said to her, "I'll apply it for you."

Sang Yao Before she could react, he was already close to her. Today, she was not wearing high heels. As soon as she reached his chin, she could feel his warm breath, and the refreshing smell of him seemed to surround her whole body. .

"It's put on."

She had a sticker on the side of her face and was looking at him with her big clear eyes, as if she was doubting or in a daze.

Xiao Chengxiu suddenly laughed.

"Why are you laughing?" Sang Yao asked him.

Xiao Chengxiu shook his head, "It's nothing."

He just felt... This feeling was quite novel. She was eight years younger than him. The two of them, one in his early twenties and the other in his early thirties, felt like they were almost a generation apart. To him, she was at an age where she could be his sister, but in his heart, he regarded her as a woman he liked.

"You young people all like to watch this kind of concert." Xiao Chengxiu made a rare joke, "I hope you won't think I'm old-fashioned just because I can't sing their songs."

Sang Yao held it in her hand . She held up the fluorescent stick and asked him, "Are you very old?"

She probably had a little bit of the idea of breaking the pot.

She is not the "Sang Yao" who is crazy about love but is excellent in everything else. She is the Sang Yao who looks nothing like "Sang Yao" except for her face.

Xiao Chengxiu should quickly see through that she doesn’t like her!

"I'm no longer young, not because of my age, but because of my mentality." Xiao Chengxiu told her patiently and gently.

My friend said before that although he was only thirty years old, he was neither happy nor sad, just like an old monk in meditation. He also felt so. Because of this, when he had such impulsive emotions and feelings for Sang Yao, with his self-control Is it really impossible to suppress this feeling with force? No. Maybe deep down in his heart, he also wanted to experience a life experience other than what Xiao Chengxiu should have been like.

Sang Yao also looked at him seriously and said, "What a coincidence. I took a psychological test and it said that my mental age is 20 years old."

She wanted to tell him that she was not as young as she appeared. Her heart is actually rotten.

Xiao Chengxiu was very happy after hearing this, "Then you are saying that you are actually only one or two years younger than me. The gap is not too big?"

Sang Yao was stunned. She only knew that men love to make up their minds, but she didn't expect that Xiao Chengxiu He is also a fan of brainstorming.

No, she didn't, that's not what she meant!

"Little sister, it's time to enter." Just as Sang Yao was about to explain, the girl in line behind Sang Yao urged her to move forward.

Sang Yao: "..."

After entering the venue and sitting down, nearly ten minutes had passed since the topic of mental age was discussed, and it was hard for her to bring it up again and explain it seriously.

Xiao Chengxiu probably also thought that watching the concert was a novel experience. Sang Yao originally thought that he would be uninterested, but she didn't expect that he would still listen to the songs very seriously, and would occasionally say to her: "This song is good. When you go back, you can Send me the song title."

Sang Yao: "..."

Why is this tone still like a boss talking to a secretary, that is, he is rich and handsome. If it were applied to ordinary people, he would have been kicked out long ago.

After the concert, Xiao Chengxiu felt like he still had something to say. On the way back, he told Sang Yao, "Originally I thought this kind of concert would be very noisy, but I didn't expect it to be very good. It's quite relaxing.

" Yao was stunned and turned her head to look out the car window, but unexpectedly found a smile on her face.

Driving into the community, when Xiao Chengxiu went to the parking space, he inadvertently glanced at Xiao Jingqiao's car. He glanced at Sang Yao subconsciously and found that the other party was looking down at his phone. He felt relieved and sent Sang Yao to her. From downstairs of that building, he said: "It's getting late, so I won't send you up. Send me a message when you get home."

Sang Yao said favorably, with the sticker still on her face, and directed at Xiao Chengxiu waved goodbye and walked to the elevator in the lobby on the first floor.

She had a lot of thoughts today, and she didn't notice for a moment that Xiao Chengxiu usually sent her upstairs, but today he didn't.

After Sang Yao entered the building, the smile on Xiao Chengxiu's face suddenly disappeared. He took out his mobile phone and dialed Xiao Jingqiao's mobile phone number. It took a while for the other party to connect, and his voice was contemptuous, "Brother, why did you remember to call your brother?" Oh, no, brother has simply forgotten that I am your brother, right?"

Xiao Chengxiu said in a cold tone, "Don't let her see you, and don't test my patience."

Xiao Jingqiao was silent for a moment. Said: "Why do you!"

"I don't like others to threaten me, nor do I like to threaten others, but I don't mind this to you." Xiao Chengxiu calculated in his mind how long it would take Sang Yao to take the elevator up.

Xiao Jingqiao's expression suddenly changed, "What do you mean?! What do you want to do?"

Despite asking, he had already stood up and pressed the elevator. This community has two households on the first floor and two elevators. He saw one of them The number of the elevator slowly increased, and when it was about to stop on this floor, another elevator opened. Xiao Jingqiao felt unwilling, but walked in anyway.

"Are you trying to do something to Shen Lu? Let me tell you, this has nothing to do with her at all!" Xiao Jingqiao lowered his voice but was still full of anger.

"From now on, if you come to Sang Yao again, you can only blame Miss Shen for accidentally making friends and getting to know you." Xiao Chengxiu's voice was calm, "I do what I say." There
