Chapter 22
"Hey, wait for me to come back tonight." Chen Jizhen said so.It was only when the words came out of his mouth that he noticed that his words blurted out naturally, with unknown nostalgia and satisfaction.

However, Lin Miao didn't pay much attention to his expression because she had something on her mind, so she nodded indiscriminately.

Her meekness made Chen Jizhen couldn't help laughing.

It was said to be a lunch banquet, but it was actually just a private gathering. A friend of Chen Jizhen's father, surnamed Xu, was celebrating his silver wedding. It was these close contacts in private that made the intricate relationship in the mall support.

When Chen Jizhen came to the villa where the banquet was held, his parents had already arrived and were chatting with friends.He asked the waiter for a glass of champagne and walked over to meet his parents.

"Exactly, your Uncle Xu is still talking about you, why did you come?" Seeing that he was late, Father Chen couldn't help frowning.

"Hey, it hasn't even started yet. How can it be too late? Young people always have their own business."

Chen Jizhen smiled and congratulated him.

Chen's mother pushed the girl beside her, stood in front of Chen Jiting, and said softly, "Jiting, look who this is?"

The girl looked up at him boldly, with delicate makeup on her palm-sized face, arrogant yet charming.

Chen Jizhen took a look, but he thought of another person who never obediently looked at him, and he didn't know what she was doing at home alone.At home... He smiled slightly.

Seeing his gentle smile, the girl approached him more boldly.

Chen Jizhen narrowed his eyes, avoided it without a trace, and asked softly, "Xu Aiyi?"

Xu Aiyi stomped her feet coquettishly. Chen's mother was so angry and funny, she took her hand and said to her son: "How can there be such a person who calls people by their first and last names like this? Be careful that your Uncle Xu beats you. I haven't seen you since Aiyi went abroad for a few years. I didn't recognize it at first glance just now, but the female college student has changed and become more and more beautiful. I can't even recognize it, but Ji Teng knew it at a glance, which means that you are destined."

Chen Jizhen raised his eyebrows slightly.

Uncle Xu waved his hand: "This girl doesn't obey, I have a headache, how can Ji Ting be so outstanding, you can enjoy the blessings."

"If you have a headache, send it to my house. I am short of a daughter-in-law." Mother Chen said with a smile.

"Auntie, you are laughing at me!" Xu Aiyi's face became even redder.

Chen Jizhen's face turned cold, and when he was about to say something, his mother pushed him off the dance floor, and Xu Aiyi was waiting for him to lead the dance.

No wonder he was urged to come, it turned out that there was such a plan.

It's a pity that although Chen Jizhen is very filial, he will not be foolish. He will not change his mind easily, including his parents. He is only loyal to himself.

The party didn't last long, Chen Jiting's father wanted to stay and chat with his friends, and Chen Jiting was responsible for sending his mother back.

"Don't go back yet, you go to the hospital with me to see Bao Yue." Mother Chen thought for a while and said, "Why don't you talk?"

"say what?"

"Aiyi is pretty good, young and beautiful, your Uncle Xu and your father are best friends, the two families know each other well..."

"Mom, you don't need to worry about these things." Chen Jizhen's eyes were cold and his voice was deep.

When the conversation was interrupted, Chen's mother was a little displeased: "What's your attitude? You are my son, so why should I worry? You are not in a hurry, we are in a hurry. You are already in your thirties. If you get married earlier, the child will He could run around the house." Knowing her son's temper, she quickly calmed down and sighed, "Baoyue is already like this, your father and I are not forcing you, but we just hope you get married soon."

Chen Jizhen touched the cuff buttons, tiredness appeared in his eyes: "I will figure it out myself."

"Then you try to get along with Ai Yi..."

"Mom!" Chen Jizhen interrupted his mother again.

Chen's mother was startled, and quickly frowned, and asked again: "Have you got a girlfriend? Who is it? The starlet you reported a few days ago? How can those women want it? I won't agree."

"Mom, I have a sense of propriety." Chen Jizhen said in a cold tone, "The hospital is here, and I have something to do, so I won't accompany you up there. Let the driver pick you up later."

Feeling a little irritable, Chen Jizhen asked the driver to go for a few laps, and then invited some friends to play golf. In the blink of an eye, it was dinner time, and everyone was still interested in the next activity, so he sent a message to Lin Miao .

—I'm having dinner out.

After a while, Lin Miao replied to him.

--good.There was only such a word. Chen Jizhen looked at the phone screen for a long time, but he didn't know what he was expecting. He was supposed to come out to breathe, but he felt more and more stuffy.

Alcohol is definitely indispensable for a men's party, but Chen Jizhen is not drunk. When he returned to the apartment in the middle of the night, the voice-activated light was on. He looked down at the shoe cabinet in the entrance, where Lin Miao's shoes and the pair of pink plush cotton slippers were kept. The child has become gentler.Walking in, Lin Miao fell asleep on the sofa, still in a deep sleep. He didn't even wake up when he carried her back to the room. The bed was too big, making her look petite and small.Chen Jizhen went to the bathroom to take a shower, and when he came out, he thought about it and put on a pair of thin silk pants, then went to bed and lay down next to Lin Miao.

He slept with Lin Miao in his arms, drank some wine, and couldn't help thinking about doing bad things to her, but in the end it was just thinking about it.He had also been outside for a day, so he rested his mind after kissing her a few times, but the more Lin Miao slept, the hotter he felt, and he wanted to break free from the fire-like envelopment.

Of course, Chen Jizhen felt uneasy when she pushed her back and forth, so he yelled under her pressure, "Try to move again?"

Lin Miao didn't wake up, she didn't know what she had dreamed about, she was sweating on her forehead, and muttered, "Hot..."

Already much better than when she woke up.

Chen Jizhen stared at her in the dark for a long time with his eyes open, and sighed again, but he never let go of his embrace. He reached out and touched the remote control of the air conditioner, and lowered the temperature by a few degrees.

But now Lin Miao felt cold again, she rubbed against his arms and continued to sleep peacefully.

On Monday, Lin Miao saw another gossip about Chen Jitong in the newspaper, which was still a gossip popularized by the sound engineer.

Different from the previous celebrity scandals, this time the person involved with him is the daughter of the Xu Group. He also said that the two have met the parents, and the "informed person" said it clearly.

Xu's is also a large enterprise with strong strength, which is good news, and the stock price of Chen Jizhen's company continues to be bullish.

Lin Miao looked calm and didn't seem to care much.

But when she got off work, she accidentally took that newspaper back with her.

Even she herself didn't know why, and read it back and forth several times for the short length.

It was only a few bus stops away from the studio to return to Chen Jitang's apartment, which was much more convenient than where Lin Miao lived before. Just like that, Chen Jitang also said that he would arrange for a driver to take her to work, but she refused without thinking.

The people in their studio are also considered half of the entertainment industry, and they cannot stand the test of gossip.

Lin Miao walked in with the newspaper. It was still early, and the nanny had just prepared dinner.Chen Jizhen couldn't come back today, so Lin Miao was alone in the apartment at night.Even if Chen Jizhen didn't tell her himself, Lu Yi would dutifully call to inform her of his boss's itinerary, and he didn't know what Chen Jizhen was thinking. He didn't need to report his whereabouts to her at all.If their relationship hadn't come so suddenly and so special, Lin Miao would have had the illusion that they were lovers who had known each other for a long time.

At present, she still can't define what is between her and him, and living here is not what she wants. These two days, she insisted on sleeping on the sofa, and he didn't say anything, but every morning he woke up next to him. To actually sleep so deeply without feeling anything made the so-called persistence a joke.

And that feeling... not as bad as imagined.

People are really lazy, so they are easily corrupted by habits.

Lin Miao never thought that she would get used to Chen Jizhen. She lowered her eyes again and looked at the newspaper on the table. The words in bold on the headline "Strong Marriage" seemed to sway people's eyes, but in fact, such family conditions The woman should be Chen Jizhen's choice.As for her, let's be fresh, the freshness you can't get.No matter how delicious the food is, it suddenly becomes tasteless.

Lin Miao, who was depressed, was startled by the sound of the door, because there would be no one else except Chen Jizhen, but she looked up at the wall clock, and it was only before eight o'clock.The newspaper... She hurriedly stuffed it into the grocery basket under the table.

Chen Jiti had already entered, and when he saw her looking at him foolishly, he smiled slightly: "Haven't you eaten yet?"

Lin Miao shook her head, afraid that he would see something, so she tried to adjust her emotions and whispered softly: "I just started eating..." She didn't ask him why he came back suddenly.

Chen Jizhen loosened his tie and sat opposite her to explain: "Tonight's dinner party has been temporarily canceled, is there still my meal?" He never had a business here before, and it was only after she moved in that he asked his aunt to prepare meals every day Yes, the home smells a bit more fragrant, and it's... not bad.

"Yes, I'll serve it for you." Lin Miao stood up after speaking, turned and went into the kitchen.

Soon Chen Jizhen heard the crisp sound of taking the bowl and chopsticks, and then Lin Miao, who was wearing home clothes, put the steaming rice in front of him and set the chopsticks for him.No matter how you look at it, she looks like a well-behaved little daughter-in-law.After a busy day for Chen Jiti, the tiredness in his eyes was completely gone, and his expression became extremely gentle.

He glanced at Lin Miao again. She ate with her head down, her hair was not tied up, and she didn't know it fell into the bowl. She always talked less in front of him.But she was not such a person before. When she was with Bao Yue and the girls, she always had endless topics to talk about, and she liked to laugh a lot. It was just with Gu Huai... Many years ago, there was a traffic jam on the road. Seeing her walking down the street holding Gu Huai's hand, the two talked and laughed. She even... boldly kissed Gu Huai once.

Chen Jizhen's eyes darkened a little, or she has not changed, after going through so much training, she is not cynical, she is still very strong and kind.She was just indifferent to herself, and she had been like this since the beginning of her acquaintance, avoiding him again and again.I really don't know what went wrong.Chen Jizhen stretched out his hand suddenly, and pulled her drooping hair behind her ears. She raised her head in astonishment, and seeing his gentle eyes, she didn't know what to do for a moment.

Chen Jiti, who was supposed to be ruthless, suddenly turned into a gentle and affectionate Chen Jiti, and Lin Miao couldn't adapt.

She took a few quick mouthfuls of rice and ended the meal.It seemed that if she stayed for a second longer, her soul would be taken away.

After Lin Miao washed the dishes, she went upstairs to take a shower, but she wouldn't stay in the room for too long, she always felt...unsafe.For the past two days, Chen Jizhen looked at her with fire in his eyes.Hearing the sound of the TV when he went downstairs, Chen Jizhen was sitting on the sofa watching the news. He didn't change his clothes, but unbuttoned his tie, unbuttoned the two buttons of his shirt, naturally revealing his firm chest.

Lin Miao suddenly felt her face was hot, and Chen Jizhen beckoned her to come over. She quickly turned her eyes away, her throat was so dry, she said, "I bought some fruit." Then she disappeared into the kitchen.

Chen Jizhen's hand was in the air, he couldn't help but retract it, and shook his head with a smile.

Lin Miao dawdled and cut up a seedless melon, and after thinking about it, he cut up a cantaloupe. The iced taste is most suitable for eating on such a sweltering night.She doesn't know how to carve, and she can't spend her whole life in the kitchen, so she nervously left the living room with a fruit plate.

Chen Jizhen raised his hand and changed the financial news he was watching to a variety show channel, but Lin Miao didn't care, and after putting away the plate, he brought a toothpick.

She looked up and found that Chen Jizhen was looking at her steadily. She suddenly remembered that it was here last time. They ate fruit well, and they had other meanings when they were not paying attention. Fortunately, they didn't eat oranges today.

"Auntie said you like to eat these two kinds." Lin Miao had nothing to say, and then added, "I tried it, it's very sweet."

"Why are you so far away from me?" Seeing her sitting upright like a primary school student, Chen Jizhen couldn't help being annoyed and amused.

He also remembered what happened that night, took a fork of watermelon and tasted it, it was really sweet, then his smile widened as if thinking of something: "How do you know I like these two kinds of fruits?" .

Lin Miao didn't seem to expect that he would ask such a question. He just said it casually just now, but now he was stopped by the question, and it took him a long time to say: "Auntie told me... I just bought whatever I saw on the road." There is no silver 300 here Two feelings.

The housekeeper's aunt was so enthusiastic that Lin Miao couldn't help it. She seemed to have worked for Chen Jiti for many years. Whenever she had time, she would tell her about Chen Jiti's habits and the things he liked to eat and use. She couldn't help but listen to it. .

Chen Jizhen was still very happy, and he ate half a plate of fruit in one go.

"It's not good to eat too much of this iced fruit." Lin Miao didn't know what he was happy about, so she subconsciously said it.

She doesn't know what's on TV.Where Chen Jiting is present, it is difficult to distract.

Hearing this, Chen Jizhen paused while holding the toothpick, raised his eyebrows and glanced at her. Before she could react, he pulled her to sit beside him, and fed her a bite of cantaloupe: "You eat it too, isn't it so sweet? It's too wasteful to eat."

Lin Miao stared at him with wide-open eyes.Chen Jizhen finally laughed out loud, and it echoed in the huge living room. When he laughed, there were very shallow laugh lines at the corners of his eyes, which made him look more gentle and gentle.Lin Miao felt embarrassed instead.

Chen Jizhen's eyes became hot, and while she was not paying attention, he hugged her and sat on him. She had just taken a bath, and all she could smell was a faint fragrance.

Lin Miao exclaimed, and when she opened her eyes, she saw his open neckline, struggling to get down, but he hugged her even tighter, and whispered in her ear, "Something is wrong with you tonight."

"How can I?" Lin Miao tried to push him away, even breathing rapidly.

"Huh? No?" Chen Jizhen chuckled, and pulled out something from behind and waved it in front of her eyes, "Look what I found?"

It was the newspaper she didn't know why she brought it back.

Lin Miao reached out to snatch it, but was thrown aside by Chen Jizhen, who hugged her intimately and asked, "It's useless to read newspapers, just ask me what you want to know."

"There's nothing to ask." Lin Miao withdrew his hand and lowered her head.

Chen Jizhen felt soft in his arms. To Lin Miao, he was not too light or too heavy. She didn't even know why he was happy when she said what fruit he liked to eat just now. She was getting to know him. This was a good start. .And this newspaper was a surprise.Originally, this kind of out-of-the-box news is beneficial to him, and he can let it go. If it provokes his rebellion, he must be given a court summons. He doesn't like being discussed about his private affairs.

But he was surprised that Lin Miao had such an awkward reaction, no wonder she didn't dare to look at him all night.Chen Jizhen grabbed her hand again, squeezed and kneaded it, and said in his mouth: "It's my uncle's daughter, who is younger than you, how could I fall in love with her? Newspapers are all speculations, so they can't be taken seriously. "

"I'm not very old..." Is this the point?

Chen Jizhen laughed: "Yes, I'm the only one who is older, and I like you, who is younger."

It's not the first time he said something like this, and she didn't take it seriously, she just kept her eyes open.What can he fancy her?
"Why don't you talk? Are you jealous?" Chen Jizhen's voice was still very pleasant.

Lin Miao shook her head, she would not be jealous, she pushed his shoulder away, this time she finally escaped from his embrace, quickly sat on the other side, and looked at him.At this time, the cell phone on the table rang suddenly, it belonged to Lin Miao, she picked it up and looked at it, then hung up when she didn't answer, but the phone kept ringing again, she hung up again.

Seeing Chen Jizhen staring at her, she didn't dare to look back this time, and said coyly, "This person has made mistakes several times." He explained without asking her, which seemed even more strange.

Chen Jizhen pursed his lips and said nothing.

The good atmosphere just now suddenly disappeared, and the reason is unknown.

Lin Miao yawned, the sofa was occupied by him, so he had no choice but to go upstairs.

Chen Jizhen was not interested in variety shows at first, seeing her walking into the bedroom, he frowned, and soon followed upstairs.

Lin Miao was lying on the far side of the bed reading a book, and he read a sentence to her: "It will hurt your eyes if you look at it like this."

Lin Miao didn't seem to have heard him speak, his face darkened, and then he walked into the bedroom.After hearing the sound of running water, Lin Miao lay down flat and stared at the ceiling with her mobile phone on the bedside.She didn't know what she wanted or what she wanted.
