Rose Manor

Shen Jianian declined politely: "I don't have the ingredients and tools for baking at home, so it might not be very convenient."

"It doesn't matter, I have it at home." Ni Yiqiong persisted, "I'll go get it right now."

After saying that, she left the kitchen and passed the living room, pretending to glance at the man casually. She was originally worried that she would be caught peeking, but in fact, he didn't look at her at all.

He stood by the floor-to-ceiling window to answer the phone, with his back to her direction. He held the phone to his ear with one hand and put the other hand into the pocket of his trousers. His voice was low and it was hard to hear what he was saying. He only felt serious.

Just the back view is fascinating, and the heartbeat can't stop racing.

Ni Yiqiong took a deep breath, looked away, put on her shoes and left temporarily.

In the kitchen, Bai Changxia finally no longer had to restrain his voice and curiosity, and asked Shen Jianian like he was setting off firecrackers: "Who is that? Why haven't you seen it before? How did you know such a weird person? Just say a word and say three A bend."

Shen Jianian pointed down with his index finger and said softly: "There is a resident on the 20th floor named Ni Yiqiong."

"Resident?" Bai Changxia murmured, suddenly remembering something, his eyes widened, and he took a breath, "Could it be the one who sent cakes to Fu Jichen?"

She had heard Shen Jianian mention it before and had some impression, but she had never seen him before.

Shen Jianian nodded: "That's her."

Bai Changxia covered his mouth: "I'll go, what kind of love triangle is this?"

"What, what are you talking about?" Zhao Shunyi didn't understand a word. He felt that he had missed important information and needed to make up for it.

Bai Changxia clicked his fingers in the air a few times to sort out the relationship between Ni Yiqiong, Fu Jichen and Shen Jia Nian: "To put it simply, she likes him and he likes her. As for her, I don't know whether she likes him or not."

Zhao Shunyi's eyes followed Bai Changxia's fingers, and he was successfully stunned by her: "Can you say something that humans can understand?"

Bai Changxia had no choice but to name him: "Miss Ni likes Boss Fu, Boss Fu likes Jia Nian, and I don't know whether Jia Nian likes Boss Fu. Do you understand?"

Zhao Shunyi finally calmed down and agreed with what she said before: "It is indeed a love triangle scene."

Not long after, Ni Yiqiong came back. She even pushed a four-story trolley over and moved the tools she needed to Shen Jianian's house at once, including various flours, molds, decorating tips and the like.

"I studied with professional baking teachers abroad for more than two years. I originally wanted to open a dessert shop, but later I was worried that it would be too troublesome and tiring." Ni Yiqiong always had a smile on his face when he spoke, " It can benefit my relatives and friends, and my hard work in studying is not in vain.”

Shen Jianian was really not good at speaking in public. Hearing this, he smiled slightly and said, "Your friends should be honored to have a friend with such a good craftsmanship as you."

Ni Yiqiong was not afraid of revealing her thoughts, and sighed: "It's a pity that the person I most want to try my craft has never had the chance."

Shen Jia Nian didn't know how to answer the question.

Bai Changxia curled up his lips and secretly gave Shen Jia Nian a look with unknown meaning. People are talking about this, don't you understand? I'm robbing you of people!

Shen Jianian is not as sensitive as Bai Changxia. She has nothing to do with Fu Jichen now. If others like him and want to pursue him, she has no right to interfere.

It would be unrealistic to say that she didn't feel any discomfort in her heart. It had nothing to do with feelings. She just didn't want to be a stepping stone for others to pursue her.

If Ni Yiqiong wanted to pursue Fu Jichen, she could be open and honest, but she shouldn't do these things on her birthday, which only happens once a year.

Ni Yiqiong could feel that the atmosphere in the kitchen had changed subtly after she said those words, but she ignored it and plugged in the electric mixer to beat the egg whites.

She thought for a while and broke the silence: "The guy outside, he doesn't have a girlfriend, right?"

Bai Changxia pretended to be mute, and Zhao Shunyi pretended not to hear. Shen Jianian could only answer her question: "Probably... no."

Ni Yiqiong's face showed a slight smile. No matter what the man thought, as long as he was single, it would be easy. Whether he could catch up with him or not depended on his own ability.

Shen Jianian has a gentle personality and is no match for her.

"Jianian, I have a question for you, don't be offended." Ni Yiqiong turned off the mixer, her voice became clearer, and looked sideways at her, "You said you had never seen your neighbor before, so why did he come to give you a question?" Are you celebrating your birthday? Do you have a good relationship?"

Shen Jianian pursed her lower lip. What she said before was true. She had indeed never met her neighbor, so she was not cheating on Ni Yiqiong, but her questioning tone made her feel a little uncomfortable.

"Jianian didn't lie to you. She always thought her neighbor was an aunt. She also told me that the aunt was a nice person and would leave food at her door when she was sick." Bai Changxia couldn't see anyone using weird words to stab Shen Jianian, "They I came across it later.”

Ni Yiqiong is an outsider. She can't tell her what happened between Fu Jichen and Shen Jianian. She can only explain it this way. "That's right, I misunderstood." Ni Yiqiong looked awkward and did not continue the topic.

Bai Changxia sneered in his heart: "Don't you know him?"

"Who? Are you talking about the gentleman outside?" Ni Yiqiong smiled bitterly, "I still don't know his name."

No wonder. Bai Changxia sighed secretly.

If they knew Fu Jichen's identity, I'm afraid not many women would have the courage to pursue him. Just the difference in family background could scare them away.

Fu Jichen finished answering the phone in the living room and looked at the getting darker sky outside the floor-to-ceiling window with a serious expression.

It was someone from Los Angeles who called him. It might be that New Year's Day was coming. Fu Yuling couldn't stand being locked up in an empty house alone. He went crazy at home and cut his hand with a knife. He was just sent to the hospital.

He touched the pocket of his trousers and took out the cigarette case. Suddenly, Shen Jianian's words popped into his ears: "Can you please don't smoke in my house? It smells like cigarettes."

Fu Jichen stuffed the cigarette case back and entered the kitchen. All four women were busy working, and he was the only one idle.

"What can I do?" He consciously walked behind Shen Jianian.

Ni Yiqiong's body trembled. They were the only two in the living room just now. It was difficult to hear him say a word. She was not willing to let this opportunity go: "I don't know what to call you yet. Can you help me cut the strawberries? I Plan to add it to the cake.”

Bai Changxia was handling the scallops. Hearing this, he rinsed his hands under the faucet: "I'll do it. It's hard to ask Mr. Fu to do it."

Bai Changxia hinted at her one after another, and Ni Yiqiong thought she was also interested in this man: "Does Miss Bai have a boyfriend?" she asked in a roundabout way.

Bai Changxia took out the chopping board specially used for cutting fruits, cut the washed strawberries into small dices, and replied with a smile: "I'm getting married, and the wedding was held during the National Day holiday this year."

Ni Yiqiong was stunned for a moment, then saw the wedding ring on her ring finger, and was relieved of her doubts.

Fu Jichen took over Bai Changxia's position, stood next to Shen Jianian, fished out a scallop from the basin, and imitated her way of handling it.

"I'll do it myself, don't make trouble." Shen Jianian glanced at him sideways. Don't think she didn't notice that he gently pinched her little finger while taking the scallops.

"I'm sorry to eat for nothing." Fu Jichen put the cleaned scallops on the plate, "I'll make whatever dish you want to make with this."

Bai Changxia stretched his neck and asked, "Boss Fu, do you want to cook?"

Fu Jichen said "hmm".

Bai Changxia had only heard about Fu Jichen's cooking deeds from Shen Jia Nian. He had never seen it with his own eyes, so of course he was looking forward to it: "Jia Nian, why don't you let Boss Fu show off his skills."

"Steamed scallops with garlic vermicelli, can you cook?" Shen Jia Nian said lukewarmly.

"I've never done it before. Let me give it a try." Fu Jichen tilted his head slightly and whispered in her ear, "Bring me the iPad and I'll search for tutorials."

Just like that day, he planned to study on the spot. Shen Jianian said: "Forget it, I won't bother you, we will do it ourselves."

Fu Jichen insisted: "How can this be trouble? Today is your birthday, so I should cook some dishes for you."

The kitchen is so big, even though Fu Jichen suppressed his voice when he spoke, Ni Yiqiong still heard it and felt a little tight in his chest. Also, Bai Changxia sometimes calls him Mr. Fu, and sometimes calls him Boss Fu. She still can't figure out his identity.

Seizing the opportunity, she asked Zhao Shunyi, who seemed to be more talkative, "Which company is that man the boss of?"

Zhao Shunyi came to the living room to get tissues. Unexpectedly, Ni Yiqiong followed him out. She was holding a pack of tissues and told her the truth: "His name is Fu Jichen. You can find out by searching on Baidu."

After Zhao Shunyi left, Ni Yiqiong frowned, took out her mobile phone and opened Baidu. She didn't know which three words "fujichen" corresponded to, and was worried that she would search for the wrong person, but when she typed the pinyin, the first part of the input method automatically popped up Three words: "Fu Jichen".

Baidu Encyclopedia is out.

As she read line after line, her heart rate soared.

Ni Yiqiong thought that the man living in this building was at most a senior executive of a certain company. Who would have thought that he turned out to be the president of Junshan Group. (End of chapter)
