Play coquettish with Joe

Chapter 9037 None of this is worth it (1)

The light in the restaurant fell into his dark pupils, and his eyes were sparkling, clear and clear.

Xiao Si didn't say anything further. She took a sip of the soup and said, "Mr. Xiao, the soup is delicious. Did you know? My dad can also make chicken soup. He uses the sweet herbs to make the soup for me. It's delicious. After he left, I never tasted the chicken soup again. But during this time, I studied the recipe he left and tried to make my own soup.”

"It seems you have a lot of free time."

"No, no, I'm very busy at the end of the year. Mr. Xiao must not give me any additional tasks."

He curled his lips and said nothing.

In the middle of the journey, Xiao Mingzhang opened a bottle of red wine and poured it for himself.

He asked her: "Do you drink?"

Xiao Sisi nodded: "A little bit."

"Ah."

He poured her some red wine too.

Xiao Xi seemed to take a sip of his wine. It was sweet wine and had a taste she had never tasted before.

The apartment was brightly lit, and outside the floor-to-ceiling windows were the lights of thousands of houses.

Halfway through the meal, Xiao Sisi asked him: "Mr. Xiao, have you been feeling unwell lately?"

"They have been receiving treatment in the hospital these days. They are the former French team. My father specially invited them to stay in Xuanzhou Hospital." Xiao Mingzhang said this calmly, "I am not particularly uncomfortable, but I often do it at night." Nightmare."

"A scary nightmare?"

"Yes." He rubbed his brows, "I often wake up in the middle of the night. After taking the medicine, it will be much more stable. There has been no problem during this period."

Some time ago, he was often awakened in the middle of the night. When he woke up, he could capture fleeting dream fragments, but he could not recall most of the scenes.

He often dreamed that he was driving on a flat road, but as he drove, the road would turn into a giant beast and swallow him and the car.

"Mr. Xiao, I just brought you something."

Xiao Sisi opened her bag and took out her newly made incense stick and pills.

"What is this?" he asked.

"I made some tranquilizing medicine using my father's formula. Mr. Xiao will give it a try. There are no side effects. If..." Xiao seemed to pause, "If Mr. Xiao thinks the effect is not bad, try the doctor's medicine." Stop, I mean... if."

Xiao Mingzhang frowned, why would she suddenly interfere with his treatment? He even made a special prescription for him.

Xiao Mingzhang held the medicine bottle and unscrewed it.

Inside are small black pills, exuding the smell of herbs.

He didn't understand herbal medicine and couldn't identify the species, but she said it was a soothing medicine, and he believed it.

"Mr. Xiao." Xiao seemed to be afraid that he wouldn't believe it, so he looked at him awkwardly and nervously, "You don't have to be afraid, these medicines have no side effects, and I won't harm you."

He curled his lips and said with a smile, "I'll accept it."

"Mr. Xiao, are you really not afraid? After all... it is medicine."

"What are you afraid of? Afraid that you will harm me? Didn't I do anything bad to you before I lost my memory? Huh?" There was a bit more teasing in his tone.

"No." She waved her hand, "After all, we are... unfamiliar. I'm afraid you won't believe a stranger's words."

"You did lie to me, like last Saturday."

"..."

"When are you going to let me meet that kid? I want to see what kind of kid you like so much."

"He's afraid of life, let's talk about it later."

"Shy?"

Xiao Mingzhang remembered the last time Zheng Bao called him. How could he look a little afraid of strangers?

Xiao Sisi nodded repeatedly: "Yeah."

Then she changed the subject and stopped mentioning Zhengbao.

"Sisi." He suddenly called her name, "Have we met before I lost my memory?"

"No." Xiao looked at him like that, "What's wrong?"

"fine."

He didn't ask again. While drinking, Xiao Mingzhang didn't want to think about those unpleasant things.

The heating in the apartment was very strong. After drinking a glass of wine, Xiao Mingzhang felt warm.

He stood up and walked to the French window and opened a small window.

The cold wind blew across his angular face, and there was a faint light in the man's raised eyes. He calmly stared at the lights outside the window.

Huahua ran over and tugged on his trousers.

Xiao Mingzhang lowered his head and looked at Huahua.

"Meow", the kitten meowed, and the surrounding area became warm and soft.

Xiao Mingzhang picked it up, held it and looked out the window.

Xiao Xi seemed to hold his chin and look at his back.

Xiao Mingzhang's tall and straight figure fell in her eyes. The man had a cold and noble aura, but because he hugged Huahua, he looked much gentler.

The corners of Xiao Xisi's lips raised and he glanced a few more times.

She drank the best wine tonight and had a delicious dinner, but the beauty of this moment was fleeting.

When the east becomes white, the long night will finally dissipate.

After some time, Xiao Mingzhang returned to the dining table.

He saw the looming needle holes on Xiao Sisi's arm and asked hoarsely: "Are you very weak?"

She smiled and covered her arms with her clothes: "Like Mr. Xiao, I have almost become a frequent visitor to the hospital."

"You can tell me next time you feel uncomfortable and I will take you to the doctor."

The man is gentle and patient enough, and his heart seems to move.

But she only said a few perfunctory words: "Thank you, Mr. Xiao."

"I remember the first time I saw you, you were squatting on the hospital floor."

"Yes."

He then said calmly: "Have you heard about the adjustment of the R&D department?"

"I heard, Mr. Xiao, Mr. Xiao wants to transfer Jiang Hai away?"

"Yeah." He didn't take it seriously, but was extremely calm. "My father, sitting in the position he is today, will definitely not be able to tolerate any kind of rebellion. Not even his biological son, let alone his adopted son."

"What are you going to do, Mr. Xiao?"

"Let it be."

"Mr. Xiao has great affection for the Xiao family, right?"

"I don't remember the past. I have been in France almost all the past three years, and I just returned to Xuanzhou this year. However, I will repay the Xiao family's kindness in raising me. This is why I have been working hard, not for The so-called career.”

The figure looks astonished.

It turned out that he wanted to repay Xiao Lang for his upbringing.

"Xiao Sisi, you know too much." He chuckled.

Xiao Shi seemed to also smile, yes, she knew too much.

But, all this is not worth it.

"Unfortunately, the new drug project is doomed to fail." He suddenly mentioned the project he was working on again, "After failure, start another project again next year. To be honest, I don't like other projects."

"Because most of the other projects are imitation projects, this is the only innovative project that Mr. Xiao has devoted his efforts to, right?"

A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he soon calmed down and nodded.

"Xiao started his career by doing imitation projects, and there are many unknown things behind it." She said in a cold tone, "Xiao is not suitable for Mr. Xiao."

"Are you prejudiced against Mr. Xiao?"

"I'm afraid that Director Xiao himself also wants to clear his former self." She said, "He asked Mr. Xiao to be responsible for the research and development of new drugs. Didn't he just want to clear his way of making a fortune?"

Of course, there are other purposes.
