Reborn Scholar

Chapter 69

Meng Shi never knew that Han Cheng could be so clingy!

The night before leaving, that is, after she acquiesced, Han Cheng grabbed her hand directly and refused to let go for a moment.

Wandering outside for a while, the night was getting dark, and the two returned to the room.When he reached the door of Meng Shi's room, Han Cheng still refused to let go.

Meng Shi was speechless, staring at Han Cheng with a bad tone: "Do you want to go in and sleep with me?"

Han Cheng coughed lightly, and said in a low voice, "Shishi, I will respect you. I just want...to stay with you for a while, I always feel a little unreal."

Meng Shi was a little helpless, so he could only laugh, "We have plenty of time."

Although a little regretful, Han Cheng could only nod his head, watching Meng Shi enter the room and close the door.

In any case, his mood is soaring!

The next morning, I had to catch a plane, so I woke up a little earlier.There was nothing to pack, Meng Shi had already packed it the night before.

After getting up and washing up, I went downstairs to see Han Cheng making sandwiches.Compared with the last time, the omelette was very successful this time.

"I can't do anything else, this is still very simple." Han Cheng laughed.

Although Meng Shi didn't mind whether her significant other could cook, she still liked it very much.

After a simple breakfast, depart for the airport.Han Cheng held her hand all the way to the plane.

Although the two of them didn't speak much, there seemed to be an aura lingering between them, and outsiders seemed unable to intervene.

Looking at Han Cheng's smile from time to time, Meng Shi felt his heart itch, as if he couldn't help laughing.

Long flights are tiring.

Meng Shi fell asleep not long after, and dimly felt that someone was covering her with a blanket and gently kissing her forehead, and she didn't want to open her eyes.

When I woke up again, half of the journey was over.

Meng Shi opened his eyes in a daze, and saw Han Cheng next to him at a glance.

He was staring at her.

Meng Shi's face was a little hot, "Don't you sleep."

"I see you sleeping."

"..." Meng Shi rubbed the center of his brows, unable to sleep for the time being.

"Drink some warm water." Han Cheng called the stewardess to bring a glass of warm water, "Drink slowly."

Meng Shi looked at Han Cheng helplessly, "Han Cheng, don't treat me like a child."

"No, I just wanted to do something for you."

Meng Shi couldn't help laughing, but he didn't know what to say, but there was no doubt that his heart was very warm.

He didn't speak, but looked at her, and she didn't speak, but looked at him.

Looking at each other for a while, seeing the brighter and brighter smile in Han Cheng's eyes, Meng Shi really retreated.

"You sleep for a while, the dark circles under your eyes are so heavy." Meng Shi said.

"I am not sleepy."

Meng Shi frowned, "Sleep!"

"...Okay." Han Cheng closed his eyes with a smile on his lips.

Looking at the face so close, Meng Shi calmed down his heartbeat slightly and closed his eyes.

When I arrived in City B, it was morning.

Jiang Lei was already waiting at the airport.Seeing Meng Shi and Han Cheng approaching, Jiang Lei hurried forward to get the suitcase.

Han Cheng held Meng Shi's hand tightly along the way, not shying away from Jiang Lei in the slightest, on the contrary... Cough, deliberately trying to let Jiang Lei see clearly, as if to show off.

Seeing Jiang Lei's eyes, Meng Shi felt embarrassed.

If she was Jiang Lei, she must have thought that the accidental lip-to-lip encounter in the car last time, something had happened to the two of them!

But... there is nothing to explain.

At this moment, Han Cheng's face was completely thickened, and he looked generous.On the other hand, Meng Shi's fair skin was stained with a light pink.

After the car drove a few times, Jiang Lei coughed lightly, "Well, Mr. Han, where are you going?"

It was supposed to go back to Han Ze's apartment, but with Meng Shi here, should he be sent back to Jinhua Apartment first?

Cough, no, judging by the appearance of these two people, they are clearly in the rhythm of being together, so where are they going?Jiang Lei decided it was better not to make random guesses, and let the two bosses decide for themselves.

"Go to my place." Meng Shi said directly.

Han Cheng didn't object, but agreed.

On the way, Jiang Lei told Han Cheng about urgent matters while driving.

During the week Han Cheng left, many things were squeezed together.Although there are many capable people below, his booth is too big, and there are still many things that need to be decided by him every day.

Han Cheng glanced at Meng Shi, feeling a little uneasy.

If outsiders heard what Jiang Lei said, their first reaction would be to be astonished at Han Cheng, and then worship him in various ways.But when Meng Shi heard this, Han Cheng suddenly felt a little guilty. He was so busy with so many things, he would be disgusted, right?

Looking at Han Cheng's appearance, Meng Shi's heart was really soft.

this person...

Is it intentional or unintentional?How could this make her harden her heart!

"Brother Tian should have told me a lot of things. Before we went to Australia, Yisou was in the process of negotiating, and there should be results now. I have to contact Brother Tian first, otherwise he will see me again, absolutely. You have to complain fiercely that I have pushed everything to him." Meng Shi laughed.

Han Cheng stared at Meng Shi for a moment, then squeezed her hand tightly, "Shi Shi, you are so kind."

Yes, he's not a fool, he won't fail to see that Meng Shi is deliberately giving him time to deal with urgent work.In fact, it's enough to say it bluntly, but she still needs to find an excuse that she also has work to do...

How could he not love such a considerate Shi Shi?
"Don't be too tired, just leave the work to Tang Jintian. Then I'll take you back to the apartment first, and I'll come and find you at night." Han Chengdao.

"It's better tomorrow. Brother Tian may have more than one thing to tell me. I also have jet lag. I want to sleep well at night."

"OK then."

When they arrived at the Jinhua Apartment, Jiang Lei helped carry Meng Shi's luggage upstairs, and then quickly smeared the soles of his feet.

Han Cheng sent Meng Shi in, and immediately hugged her tightly in his arms, "Let me hug her for a while."

Meng Shi laughed, and put his arm around Han Cheng's waist.

He has a strong chest and no fat around his waist, making him comfortable to hold.Try to lean your head gently on his shoulder, because you can feel his strong heartbeat because you are close.

Han Cheng seldom used perfume, and he often only smelled of soap or shower gel on his body, which was cool and dry, as straightforward as his temperament.

"Okay, you should go."

Meng Shi pushed Han Cheng.She wondered, if she didn't push him away, would he be able to hold him like this until tomorrow morning!
Han Cheng reluctantly let go, kissed her forehead, and said in a low voice, "Then I'll go first."

"Ah."

"You don't even give me a kiss." Han Cheng felt aggrieved.

Meng Shi glared at him, grabbed his hand and put it on his lips, kissed him hard, "Okay. If you don't leave, Jiang Lei will be waiting impatiently."

Han Cheng looked reluctant, "Perfunctory!"

Meng Shi gritted his teeth, "Next time I won't even be perfunctory!"

"..."

Finally seeing Han Cheng off and closing the door, Meng Shi couldn't help but laugh to himself.

Not long after taking a shower and changing clothes, Tang Jintian came.

The two were talking in the study.

"We have already negotiated with Li. He said that as long as Yisou's decision-making power is given to him, everything else can be discussed." Tang Jintian said.

Meng Shi nodded, "Give it to him. Is Yi Xun separated?"

"Well, it has been separated separately, and a suitable development team has been recruited in China."

Meng Shi thought for a while, "Where's Yisou's original team? Have you told them?"

Tang Jintian nodded, and said regretfully, "It's okay, it's just that the young people don't understand and can't accept it. It's really a pity."

"all gone?"

"Yes."

Meng Shi hummed, and didn't say anything more. This was the result that was expected long ago.If these people had lived in the environment of country M since they were young, they would not have made such a decision at this time.

Someone once told an example that ordinary employees in a factory in country M were doing simple mechanical assembly work. The manager of the employees told the boss in front of the employees that if they used some kind of mechanical work, they could hire less workers. 30.00% of employees.Those employees continued to work as if they hadn't heard at all, and their mood was not affected at all.Because, they are used to it, this is the capital society, everything is profit-oriented.Even if the employees are anxious and nervous, they will never think that the manager is wrong to reduce costs and reduce staff!

But in Huaxia, this is definitely not possible.

The original team may hate Shengshi so much.This is also impossible!

Meng Shi was too lazy to think about it, this world is so cruel, the truth is that the winner is king.

Later, Tang Jintian told her about the fluctuations in the stock market, as well as the major trends of the companies under Shengshi.

In addition to these, Tang Jintian arranged for Meng Shi to have an assistant named Ling Mo.

Because Tang Jintian had too many things to do, it was impossible to help Meng Shi with anything.

And Ling Mo is the type who is on call, Meng Shi can tell him to do anything, the secretary who sends the message, or the driver, etc., are omnipotent.

Meng Shi didn't refuse either, she knew it was necessary.

After listening to and dealing with these matters, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.That's it, it's fast!
Tang Jintian left, and Meng Shi didn't have time to make soup today, so he ordered takeaway for dinner.

Right now, I'm really a little hungry, and I feel very uncomfortable if I don't eat well.

There are fresh ingredients in the refrigerator. Tang Jintian knew that she was coming back today and also knew her living habits, so he directly asked Ling Mo to buy fresh ingredients to fill her refrigerator.

Now that he wasn't sleepy for the time being, and he was hungry, Meng Shi habitually started looking for the refrigerator.

There are fresh pork ribs, cob bones, corn and yams.If you have time, the corn pork bone soup is good, but it takes too long, and the yam pork rib soup takes less time.

Boil the water first, then wash the ribs, because the ribs should be blanched in boiling water first, so that the meat is tender and the blood foam can be removed.

It's just that Meng Shi hesitated while washing the ribs.

The ribs should weigh nearly two catties. She eats it by herself, and one third is enough...

Look at the time, it's past ten o'clock.

She has been busy with those little things until now, let alone Han Cheng, he must still be busy.When he got busy, he would eat indiscriminately.

After thinking about it, Meng Shi still took out all the ribs and washed them.

It's not that she wanted to please Han Cheng, but she felt that since she wanted to try it, she couldn't let Han Cheng pay for it alone. Besides, it didn't cost much. When they were not together, she would cook soup for him.

I simply gave myself a reason in my heart, and my hands were busy quickly.

When the pork ribs are washed, the water is also boiled, put it in the pot and blanch it, remove the blood foam, and take it out for later use.

Peel the yam and cut it into thick pieces, soak it in salt water for a while.Then put the yam and the fried ribs in the soup pot together, then add the ginger and star anise, put it on the fire and boil it on high heat, then cook it slowly on low heat.

After cooking the soup, Meng Shi called Han Cheng.

Sure enough, Han Cheng quickly picked it up, "Shishi."

His voice was so low that Meng Shi felt that it was so gentle that he was not used to it.

"still working?"

"There's still a little more time to deal with it, how about you?" Han Cheng said with an extremely soft smile.

At this time, on the sofa opposite Han Cheng, the two special assistants Jiang Lei and Gao Sen were sitting upright, not daring to show their air.

Jiang Lei was fine, but Gao Sen was completely taken aback by Han Cheng's smile and gentle tone.

Mamma Mia, just now this guy reprimanded HK because of their work problems, his face is so black that he could be the king of Hades.But a phone call changed his face directly.Do you want to treat them differently?

Gao Sen looked at Jiang Lei in confusion, Jiang Lei blinked, but he was thinking in his heart, maybe there will be a decompression artifact in the future!
"I just finished my work." Meng Shi sat on the sofa, hugged his pillow and smiled, "What did you have for dinner?"

Han Cheng hesitated for a moment, as if recalling, "Rice."

Meng Shi was speechless, no need to ask, Han Cheng must not remember.

Sure enough, Han Cheng explained again, "Jiang Lei prepared it and didn't pay much attention."

Meng Shi was helpless, and he knew it was like this, "Well, it's okay, you can continue to work, and finish your work early."

"Well, you go to bed early."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Meng Shi went to the kitchen again, planning to fry some tortillas.

On Han Cheng's side, in the study, the atmosphere was extremely strange.

The insider, Jiang Lei, tried his best to hold his facial expression, while Gao Sen looked like he had been struck by lightning.

Was that really their cold-faced Mr. Yan Luohan just now?
Is it really their boss Han who can make the opponent speechless just by his aura?Wasn't it possessed by something?

Seeing Gao Sen's eyes, Han Cheng coughed lightly, glanced at Gao Sen lightly, but didn't say much.No way, who made him feel good.

However, Han Cheng is also reviewing himself, he is really unqualified, no wonder he always despises him.

I always know that I have to call to ask him if he is eating well, and tell him to go to bed early, but he is completely devoted to work!

Really shouldn't, really shouldn't.

Han Cheng secretly spurned himself from the bottom of his heart, and reminded himself by the way that he must never make such a mistake again in the future, and must not give him every chance to despise himself!
But because of the phone call from time to time, the anger just now dissipated a lot.

"Gao Sen, why don't you ask Chen Yun about this first? I spent so much money to invite Chen Yun to sit in charge, not to let him eat for free..."

When Meng Shi finished frying the tortillas, the soup was almost done.

Go to change clothes first, and then turn off the fire after changing clothes, and pour the soup into the insulated food box.Because there are more soups, two catties of pork ribs and one and a half catties of yam.Fortunately, she has more than three insulated food boxes here, both big and small.

Two full food boxes were filled, and the tortillas were placed on the upper layer and covered.

Meng Shi put on his coat and hat, and went out with his bag.

Although it was past eleven o'clock, there were still many taxis.Han Cheng's apartment was not in a remote place, so Meng Shi could easily get a taxi.

It was already 11:30 when we arrived at Han Cheng's place.

Han Cheng is located in a high-end residential area in the urban area.The location is very good and the price is not cheap.Han Cheng bought a duplex apartment, which was very big.

Meng Shi has been here twice.

But obviously, because she went in directly in Han Cheng's car every time, the security guards in this neighborhood still didn't know her.

Helpless, Meng Shi could only call Han Cheng again.

Seeing Meng Shi's phone call, Han Cheng, who was giving Gao Sen an order, immediately paused, feeling a little guilty.

Just now he told Meng Shi that the work is almost done, but in fact... there is still a lot of work to do, and I'm afraid it will last all night.

Feeling a little nervous, he answered the phone, "Shi Shi, still haven't slept yet?"

Meng Shi coughed lightly, "Well, I'm at the gate of your community, and the security guard doesn't recognize me, so tell him."

"What?" Han Chengteng stood up, and the chair was knocked aside by him, "Where are you?"

Meng Shi suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

You refused so hard before, and turned around to "show courteousness"?
Han Cheng probably thought that her previous refusal was an act of reserve!

Meng Shi was a little irritable, thinking so much about what to do!He can think whatever he wants!bother!

With the phone in his hand, Han Cheng had already quickly walked out of the study, directly out the door, pressed the elevator anxiously, and ran all the way to the entrance of the community after going downstairs!
Jiang Lei and Gao Sen, who were left in the house without any explanation, looked at each other, not knowing what happened to make their boss so... excited.

Holding a thermos in one hand, Meng Shi stood by the guard booth, watching Han Cheng running over quickly, feeling really embarrassed!
"It's so late, why are you here?" Han Cheng's expression was not very good, he was worried.

Meng Shi coughed lightly, "I didn't have a good dinner. After finishing my work with Brother Tian, ​​I was hungry, so I made something to eat. Didn't I call you earlier? I think you must have not eaten well, so let's go together Eat it, there’s a lot to do anyway.”

Han Cheng fell silent.

Meng Shi pouted, "Why, forget it if you don't want to eat, I'll go back and eat by myself."

With that said, she made a gesture to leave.

Han Cheng directly snatched the food box in her hand, she held one in each hand, and after he snatched it, he directly held two in one hand, and tightly grasped her hand with the other hand, and led her inside.

The security guard laughed quickly, "Mr. Han, you just need to tell me on the phone. It's so cold, why run down by yourself."

Han Cheng glared at the security guard, "See it clearly, this is Mrs. Han, she will let her go directly in the future."

"...Yes, yes." The security guard's heart palpitations from being stared at, but the heart of gossip is even heavier, Mrs. Han, cough, cough, so tender...

Meng Shi glared at Han Cheng fiercely, but someone acted as if he didn't know, and said as he walked, "Go out alone at such a late hour, don't be afraid. Don't do this next time."

"There's nothing to be afraid of. You're not in the suburbs. If I were in the suburbs, I wouldn't dare to go." Meng Shi smiled, took off his gloves, and held Han Cheng's hand, only to realize that his hands were so cold up.

Han Cheng came out wearing only a thin sweater!

You know, the lunar calendar has just passed the first month at this moment, and it is still very cold, and the temperature is still below zero.This thin sweater is fine indoors with heating, but it's very cold outside.

"Why did you run out without a coat on!"

Han Cheng smiled and winked at her, "It's okay, I have enough firepower."

Meng Shi was helpless, but quickened his pace.

When they got downstairs, Jiang Lei and Gao Sen also came down and stood there waiting.Seeing Han Cheng pulling Meng Shi over, Jiang Lei said it was a matter of course, and Gao Sen was shocked.

Seeing these two people, Han Cheng frowned, "Why are you all coming down, let's go up."

They went upstairs to the apartment together.

Jiang Lei quickly touched Gao Sen, and then said to Han Cheng, "Mr. Han, let's go back to the room and sort out the work just now. You can talk."

Gao Sen is not a fool, he nodded quickly after realizing it.

Han Cheng wanted to tell them to get out of here quickly, but Meng Shi spoke first.

"I brought some soup, it's quite a lot, you should eat some too." Meng Shi laughed.

"No, no, we've had dinner and we're not hungry." Jiang Lei resolutely refused.

"Your dinner must not be good, you're a bunch of workaholics. Okay, Jiang Lei, go get the bowls and chopsticks." Meng Shi asked Han Cheng to put the food box on the table.

Han Cheng looked reluctant.

Fortunately, there is a lot of soup, and the fried tortillas are enough for one person.

Jiang Lei and Gao Sen had already drank a bowl of soup and ate a tortilla, they couldn't bear Han Cheng's lingering gaze any longer, and hurried away.Although the food is delicious, but being stared at by the boss like this, no matter how delicious it is, it is not easy to digest!

Meng Shi had almost eaten, and Han Cheng finished the rest. Although he was quite full, he couldn't help but said, "Don't give them a drink in the future, I won't even be full."

"..."

Meng Shi was speechless, too lazy to talk to him, and started to clean up the dishes.

At this time, Jiang Lei, who had disappeared just now, suddenly reappeared, rushing to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, so as not to let Meng Shi touch his hands.

Han Cheng took Meng Shi upstairs to sit in the living room.

"Is there more work?"

"Cough, I'm in a hurry to deal with it. I can't do it unless I take over." Han Cheng looked at Meng Shi without blinking.

Meng Shi felt uncomfortable being stared at by him, "Then it's going to be all night?"

"It shouldn't take that long. Shishi, you'll be staying here tonight. It's so late, I don't worry about you going back alone."

"Let Jiang Lei send me off."

"Jiang Lei still has work. If he doesn't help me, I can't finish it all night."

"Isn't there Gao Sen?"

"Gao Sen has Gao Sen's job. Before you came, both of them were hurrying to work."

"...Then I'll tidy up the guest room." Meng Shi said helplessly.

Han Cheng doesn't have her room here, because Han Cheng travels around all year round and spends only a handful of time in City B. Every time he comes back to City B, he would meet up with a few friends to eat out or something.

Besides, it's far away from her school, she has basically never been to Han Cheng's place, let alone have a room here.And Han Cheng just came back, so he didn't have time to prepare a room for Meng Shi.

"No. You sleep in my room, and the guest room needs to be tidied up. It's too troublesome. I work late at night, so I can just sleep in the study when I'm done. There is also a place to rest in the study."

"How about that..."

"That's it, I'll take you to my room."

Meng Shi refused.

Han Cheng immediately looked at her, "Shishi, you don't think you dislike me, do you?"

"……No."

"Then it's okay to sleep in my room, and I won't do anything to you."

"But……"

"Don't be so. The guest room Nianzi and Yanzi have slept in the room they have slept in before. I don't want you to sleep in the room they slept in."

"..."

In the end, Meng Shi still couldn't hold back Han Cheng and went to his bedroom.

Han Cheng's bedroom is decorated in a low-key, simple style, and the space is large enough to look very comfortable.

"Okay, go to work quickly, I'm going to rest, I'm sleepy." Meng Shi pushed Han Cheng out.

Han Chengshun was pushed to the door by her, turned to look at her, and smiled brightly, "Shishi, I like you so much, what should I do?"

"boom!"

Meng Shi slammed the door shut.

Han Cheng smiled even more happily at the door. He bowed his head towards the door and smiled for a while, then turned around and went to the study room. He obviously still had a lot of work to do and would be very tired, but his whole face was radiant and energetic, so swollen?
Meng Shi didn't recognize the bed, but it was not so easy to fall asleep in a strange place.

She thought that sleeping on Han Cheng's bed would make it easier to fall asleep, but she didn't expect that she fell into a dream so quickly...
