Chapter 17

When Lin Ziqiao was limply carried back to the bed, all the strength in her body was worn away by Meng Qingxi.This kid is asking too much, and it's not like he won't come back once he goes to Britain, he must be crazy.She lay on the mattress and let Meng Qingxi's nimble fingers rub her waist, which was too weak due to overwork.

"Sister, let me teach you the moves of Taekwondo."

"why?"

She lazily turned over on the bed, and the quilt that covered her body slid down, and Meng Qingxi's gaze became hot again when she looked at her.His fingers circled her smooth skin, "I don't want perverts to get close to your body when I'm abroad." Lin Ziqiao picked up the pillow and slammed it on his head, saying angrily: "The biggest The pervert is you, okay?!"

Meng Qingxi smiled and avoided.

"Sister, after I'm gone, will you miss me every day?"

Lin Ziqiao answered bluntly, "I don't want to."

"Really don't want to?"

Meng Qingxi entangled him again, and Lin Ziqiao blocked his face with a palm.

"Xiaoxi, most companies are willing to recommend their employees to study abroad. Of course, they are looking at the individual's potential, but there are also many harsh conditions. How many years have you signed the contract with it? You can show me the contract. , Don’t sell off your whole life just for a chance to study further.”

Seeing that she was about to get up from the bed, Meng Qingxi's expression froze immediately.

He lied and told Lin Ziqiao that the training in Britain was dispatched by the Internet company, and he didn't mention his grandfather's coercion at all, but she suddenly said that it depends on the contract, how could he get it out?

"Xiaoxi?"

Lin Ziqiao looked at him suspiciously.

In desperation, Meng Qingxi threw her down on the bed.

"Sister, are you planning for my future life?"

Lin Ziqiao was pressed back on the bed by Meng Qingxi, he looked at her with dark eyes, hot and affectionate, her face felt hot as if it was burning, who made plans for his future?This kid took advantage of her again!
"If you like to sign a contract of sale, just sign it. I'm too lazy to talk to you."

"You have to be responsible to me to the end."

Meng Qingxi kissed her obsessively, from the earlobe to the back of the neck, there was a tingling and numb feeling. "Sister, before I leave, can I buy a ring for you?"

Is he proposing to her?
Lin Ziqiao immediately realized that she was being tricked, she should have known, if Meng Qingxi didn't know how to grasp the opportunity, how could he possibly pursue her?
But of course she couldn't agree to such a hasty proposal!
"Xiaoxi, I'm hungry, I want to get up and eat!"

Lin Ziqiao picked up her clothes, fearing that he would pounce on her again and slip away quickly.Meng Qingxi sat on the bed, the smile on her face gradually disappeared.Lin Ziqiao didn't insist on reading the contract, so he escaped, but how long will he lie to her with such a lie?

He lay on his back on the bed, feeling contemptuous even to himself.

Lin Ziqiao was messing with pots and bowls in the kitchen, making a ping-pong sound.Meng Qingxi has always been so obsessed with her that she never thought that he might leave, but the plan always fails to keep up with the changes. He will go abroad next month, and she is not at all mentally prepared.She opened the door of the refrigerator and looked at a large pile of lettuce and raw meat. It seemed that she couldn't handle it with her own strength alone.

She raised her voice and said, "Xiaoxi, if you want to eat lunch, come out and help!"

Meng Qingxi answered in the room, and then came the sound of going down to get dressed.

"Just two years."

She shook her head with a smile. Now that she has really fallen, she actually has the urge to ask him to stay.

After completing the work of the customer conference, the season has entered autumn, and the campus recruitment in October will start immediately. There are nearly 2000 subsidiaries under the "Tianwang" Group, and the annual demand for college graduates is close to [-]. Therefore, recruitment is a very heavy task for the personnel department.The subsidiaries formed a joint recruitment team, divided into several lines according to regions and provinces, selected dozens of famous schools to give publicity speeches, and then received the resumes of graduates, and then conducted interview screening.

After a round of elections every year, Lin Ziqiao will be worn off a layer of skin.

As an administrative manager, this is a more important job for her than the customer meeting.She took Zhu Jiaxin to start a tour between colleges and universities, and one of the stops that fell on her this year was the alma mater where Meng Qingxi had studied for four years.

At three o'clock in the morning, a few light knocks came from outside the door.

Lin Ziqiao got up from a pile of graduate resumes, walked over and pressed the doorknob, "Give me the password, otherwise I won't be admitted."

"Report to the adults, the little one is back after shopping for supper."

Zhu Jiaxin squeezed her throat and talked outside, she was amused and laughed, and the drowsiness of drowsiness was also dispelled a lot.

"Little Zhuzi, come in."

The door opened, and Zhu Jiaxin rushed in with a lunch box full of food. "I walked for several streets to buy something to eat. I'm really going to starve to death."

The two of them traveled with the recruitment team and flew to five or six cities in succession. They stayed in each place for about three days, and the itinerary was quite tight.At each stop, they only have half a day to prepare, and then immediately hold a presentation.Although they have a college diploma these days, it is not easy to find an ideal job. Therefore, in addition to the school where they settled down, graduates from neighboring universities saw the recruitment announcement and rushed over early.

After the lecture, they often receive more than [-] graduate resumes.

Since the list of interviewees would be announced the next morning, she and Zhu Jiaxin worked hard every night to review resumes for screening.They had already reached the last stop of their itinerary. This was the university that Meng Qingxi graduated from, which was a top prestigious school in China, so they received a lot of resumes that day, filling two full boxes.

The two fought until the early hours of the morning, but the hill of resumes hadn't been emptied. Zhu Jiaxin couldn't stand it anymore, so he slipped outside to buy a midnight snack and came back to eat a lot.The spicy smell of Malatang wafted in the room, he picked up a bunch with his fat paws, and gnawed contentedly.

"It smells so good, Manager Lin, you really don't want to eat it?"

"I will not eat."

Lin Ziqiao continued to bury her head in reading her resume, "Don't eat too much, eat such a high-calorie food in the middle of the night, be careful to make you fat."

"I'd rather die of fat than die of starvation."

Zhu Jiaxin reached out and picked up another string, "It's really delicious, it's a waste if you don't eat it."

"You want to die, don't you?"

Lin Ziqiao kicked him very rudely, resolutely not being tempted by the aroma of food. "Come over and read your resume as soon as you finish eating. If you can't finish reading before the interview, you can skip lunch and lose weight with me."

"I don't want it."

Zhu Jiaxin screamed, "Manager Zhang and the others next door are already asleep. I went to see them in the middle of the night. They only pick out resumes with beautiful layouts, and throw away those with no distinctive design. I didn’t take a closer look, how many talents were killed in this one throw.”

"Do you want to learn from them?"

Lin Ziqiao raised her head, grinding her teeth.

Zhu Jiaxin hurriedly threw the empty lunch box into the trash can, washed his hands and ran back, "Give me a water tank to make me dare not do such a thing in front of you, I'll take a serious look right away! There are old and young, and I can’t afford a single penny in salary and bonuses.”

"Stop crying poor in front of me!"

Lin Ziqiao smiled and kicked him again.

It took a whole night for Lin Ziqiao to review the received resumes and pick out candidates for interviews. She stood up and stretched her limbs. Zhu Jiaxin was exhausted, so she didn't go back to her room and lay on her bed. fell asleep in the room.The dawn outside the window was gradually breaking through, and the wind was blowing the leaves outside. She stayed up all night, but now she didn't feel sleepy. She took the room card and mobile phone, and walked out of the room by herself without waking Zhu Jiaxin up.

They settled in the guest house inside the university, and outside was the school road full of sycamore trees.

Meng Qingxi only graduated from here last year. Perhaps, he also walked across the dead leaves in the early morning like this?
Lin Ziqiao suddenly wanted to talk to him.

"sister?"

After a rustling noise, the phone signal returned to normal, and Meng Qingxi answered sleepily on the other end of the phone.He said that no matter how late it was, as long as Lin Ziqiao called him, he would answer, and he actually turned on the phone all night for her.

"Is something wrong? You called me so early?"

Meng Qingxi got up from the bed. Lin Ziqiao had been on a business trip for half a month. He returned to the Meng family's mansion and behaved well in front of his grandfather.Some things cannot be won through confrontation, and his compromise does not mean giving up.He pulled his nightgown over his body and opened the curtains of the floor-to-ceiling windows.The sky outside has just turned bright, and a red glow is scattered in the east, and the sun is about to rise.

He held down the sling on the patio rocker.

One day, he will hold Lin Ziqiao in his arms from behind, and watch the sunrise with her here.

"I just wanted to talk to you."

Lin Ziqiao raised her head and watched the leaves of the sycamore tree whirl and fall from the air. "Xiaoxi, the place where I am now is very familiar to you. The road is lined with sycamore trees. They are at least five or sixty years old. Each tree is four or five stories high. It is really beautiful."

"Sister, are you in the school I graduated from?"

She didn't tell Meng Qingxi all the details of her itinerary, which surprised him for a moment.

"correct."

Lin Ziqiao leaned over and picked up a leaf that looked like a slap, feeling as if she had stepped into Meng Qingxi's past.She thought that she had probably been poisoned by a kind of poison called Meng Qingxi, and it was only more than ten days since they separated, but she missed her so deeply.

"Xiaoxi, I suddenly realized that I know too little about you."

Meng Qingxi's heart stopped beating, "Sister, why do you say that?"

Lin Ziqiao shook her head, she is not a sentimental person, but this morning, she suddenly developed redundant emotions.Maybe it's because the separation is imminent?In this relationship, from the initial inadvertence to the complete (manipulation) emotion in the end, she also had a lot of confusion and could not find the answer.Meng Qingxi was infected by her emotions, and he knew the reason very well, because he had been lying to her all along.He said softly on the phone, "Sister, come out of the guest house and go west. Stop at No. 17 sycamore tree, there are some words I left for you."

"Words you left me?"

Lin Ziqiao felt it was impossible.

Meng Qingxi graduated last year, and the last day they stayed on campus, they hadn't become lovers yet.

"Sister, let's go."

Lin Ziqiao counted tree by tree, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen...Meng Qingxi's pretending to be mysterious made her feel nervous and expectant. The answer was about to be revealed in front of her. What exactly did he leave on the tree? Tell her?
