The whole world just wants you to love me
Chapter 20: Birthday Invitation
Blink, it's Friday again.
A week was about to pass, and in the department that afternoon, colleagues couldn't help discussing what activities to do after get off work.
"I have to go to my mother-in-law's house with my wife on weekends. It's really miserable." The male colleague wailed.
"What a pity, be a filial son-in-law!" Someone laughed immediately.
"Xiao Li, are you free on Saturday?"
"Yes, I have."
"Then let's go shopping together?"
"Okay, okay, I just want to go shopping too."
On this side, two female colleagues were discussing enthusiastically where to go shopping on weekends.Immediately, several women responded and strongly requested to join them.Immediately, the male colleague couldn't help complaining, and the words of prodigal made the women jump up, and another lively debate match was staged.
Chu Qiao was proofreading a manuscript against the computer, and occasionally heard them arguing for each other, she couldn't help feeling amused.
Suddenly, the phone vibrated.
A message came in.
Chu Qiao picked up the phone and looked at it. The number displayed on the screen was - Jiang Yanyu.
Chu Qiao clicked to read.
The message said: Chu Qiao, are you free this Saturday?
Chu Qiao thought for a while holding the phone, and then replied the message: What's the matter?
Soon, Jiang Yanyu sent again: I have a birthday party on Saturday, can you come to it?
birthday party?
After thinking about it, Chu Qiao clearly remembered that Jiang Yanyu's birthday was in May.It's the end of June now, and it looks like it's time to make up for my birthday.
While Chu Qiao was considering whether to go or not, another message came in.
--I do not care!Chu Qiao, you must come!
Even though it was just a message and did not hear his voice, Chu Qiao could still feel Jiang Yanyu's seriousness and his strong attitude.Chu Qiao suddenly remembered that in the past, every time Jiang Yanyu celebrated his birthday, he would say the same thing when holding a birthday party.
I remember Tao Sitian deliberately teasing him on his birthday in the second year of high school: "Jiang Yanyu, you have invited so many friends, it would be nothing without us!"
Jiang Yanyu's expression at that time was so persistent, he said stubbornly: "No, you must come!"
Tao Sitian just wanted to make him anxious, so she dragged her away without giving him an answer.And that night, Chu Qiao actually received a call from Jiang Yanyu in the middle of the night.
Jiang Yanyu was at the other end, very troubled, and asked her very sleepily: "Chu Qiao, are you coming or not!"
Chu Qiao was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Jiang Yanyu, you stay up late at night just to ask me this?"
"If you don't promise me, I won't be able to sleep tonight!" Jiang Yanyu's words were exaggerated, and she acted like a child, "I don't care!"
"Chu Qiao, you must come!" Jiang Yan ordered in an almost vexatious tone.
How could Chu Qiao refuse Jiang Yanyu, who was cute and energetic like a child?
buzz-
Just as Chu Qiao was thinking, the phone in her hand vibrated violently.
It was Jiang Yanyu who called.
Chu Qiao picked up the phone and heard his voice. It was clear, and it was still the childish voice in her memory, which made her miss it a little.
"I don't care! Chu Qiao, you must come!" Jiang Yanyu said so, Chu Qiao couldn't help but speak, unable to think about other things, and even forgot her own identity, she was no longer the free one, But still agreed as before.
"it is good."
After hanging up the phone, Chu Qiao felt a little troubled.
"Chu Qiao, we are going shopping on Saturday, are you going?" a colleague shouted.
Chu Qiao turned her head and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I have a friend's birthday, and I already have an appointment."
"That's okay, let's go together next time."
Chu Qiao smiled, and returned her gaze to the computer screen.The dense black characters in the document are intertwined in the bottom of his eyes.
But Chu Qiao was thinking, how should I tell Mo Zhengyan when I go back at night?
◎◎◎
"Miss, you are back."
Chu Qiao pushed the bicycle and entered through the side door of Jing Yuan.Then, pushing all the way, came to the front of the mansion.In the garage on the side, Mo Zhengyan's exclusive car is already there, he should be back.Chu Qiao parked her bicycle beside her, and then walked into the mansion.
Chu Qiao stood in the hall and asked, "Uncle Housekeeper, where is the sir?"
"Mister is in the back garden." The butler replied.
Chu Qiao nodded with a smile, then walked towards the back garden.
The back garden of Jingyuan has a good view.The cobbled stone road is paved with a long road, which meanders and connects the entire garden.In front of it is an ancient rockery bridge, but there are also ivory white European-style tables and chairs, which are suitable for afternoon tea.And those decorations with ancient style are left from the grandfather's generation.As for the European series, it was added later.
Especially in the warm afternoons in winter, it is too pleasant to come here to bask in the sun, drink tea and eat some small desserts.
Chu Qiao was walking on the gravel road, and when she looked up, she saw Mo Zhengyan sitting in a chair not far away.
At hand is a cup of coffee.
He is looking at the sunset.
The sky is dazzling and gorgeous, like a beautiful picture scroll.
Chu Qiao quietly walked over and got closer, only to find that Mo Zhengyan was playing with a shuttlecock in his hand.
Chu Qiao remembered that this was her favorite gadget in the past.
In the past, when she was free, Chu Qiao would come to the back garden to play shuttlecock.She is very good at kicking, she can kick hundreds of them without falling.
But, hasn't she kept this shuttlecock in the study all the time?
Mo Zhengyan saw her out of the corner of his eye, he smiled and said, "I'm back."
These days, Chu Qiao found out that this man was not so serious and difficult to get close to.At least, he kept smiling when he was in front of her.It is said that smiling can resolve embarrassment and make people get closer, which is true.
"En." Chu Qiao sat down on the chair beside him, turned her head and said, "You are quite early today."
"There is nothing happening in the company." Mo Zhengyan said in a low voice.
Chu Qiao said "Oh", not knowing what to say next.She glanced at the shuttlecock, and said again, "This shuttlecock is mine."
"I saw it in your study and thought it was very interesting, so I took it down to play with." Mo Zhengyan said.
"You... know how to kick shuttlecock?" Chu Qiao asked curiously, but she couldn't imagine this scene.
It seems a little impossible for a man like Mo Zhengyan to kick the shuttlecock.
"I won't." Mo Zhengyan denied it, and asked while playing with the shuttlecock, "Can you?"
"I will." Chu Qiao said, and immediately shouted, "Give me the shuttlecock, and I will kick it for you."
Mo Zhengyan handed the shuttlecock to her, and Chu Qiao took it and got up, walking to the open space ahead.She was still wearing the black flat leather shoes she wore at work. She lightly tossed the shuttlecock into the air, and at the same time raised her foot. The side of her heel precisely kicked the shuttlecock, and the feather flew up again.
Mo Zhengyan watched her kick and kick, her hair that was originally tied up loosened because of her movements.
Those strands of hair flew into the air with every kick and jump of hers.
His eyes were in a trance for a moment, but the smile was on the corner of his mouth.
Chu Qiao didn't know, but this was a beautiful picture, in Mo Zhengyan's eyes.
Chu Qiao hadn't kicked for a long time. After more than a dozen times in a row, she didn't catch the shuttlecock, and the shuttlecock fell to the ground.
She picked up the shuttlecock, looked at him and said, "How is it?"
"Not bad." Mo Zhengyan praised with a smile.
Chu Qiao twirled the shuttlecock in her hand, seeing that he was in a good mood, she tried to speak and told him about the Saturday party.But just as she was about to speak, Mo Zhengyan said first, "If you are free tomorrow, I will take you to a western restaurant for dinner. As I said before, I will take you there next night."
"Tomorrow night?" Chu Qiao was surprised, how could it be such a coincidence?
"What? You have arrangements?" Mo Zhengyan looked sideways.
"Tomorrow night, I have an appointment. A friend asked me to go for his birthday, and I have already agreed." Chu Qiao said softly, clenching the shuttlecock tightly in her hand.
"My friend's birthday." Mo Zhengyan said in a low voice, and then asked, "Woman?"
Chu Qiao faltered immediately, thinking of Jiang Yanyu and everything he ran into that night, for some reason, she felt a little awkward in her heart, and she couldn't speak clearly.
"Yes, it's a female friend." When Chu Qiao said that, she felt so guilty.
Mo Zhengyan looked at her with deep eyes.
When Chu Qiao was stared at like this, she felt a sense of discomfort, as if he had seen through her.
After that, Mo Zhengyan just said indifferently, "That can only be another day, a friend's birthday party, since you agreed, you can go."
A week was about to pass, and in the department that afternoon, colleagues couldn't help discussing what activities to do after get off work.
