Come To My Office After Get Off Work

When Jiang Shu came out of the shower, it was raining even harder outside.

The rain in summer is always like this, it comes quickly, the raindrops clatter against the windows, the wind blows wildly, and the green branches outside the window are blown up and down by the wind.

Because of the rain, Jiang Shu was wearing thin pajamas and felt a little cold.

Ji Lianxing and Jiang Xiaotan were sitting on the bed. They didn't know what they were playing. It should be a card that children like to play.

"are you hungry?"

Jiang Xiaotan looked up at her and nodded, "I'm hungry."

"I know what to eat, but I didn't ask you." Jiang Shu's eyes fell on Ji Lianxing's face, and he asked again, "Are you hungry?"

"A little." In fact, Ji Lianxing was already hungry, and he didn't eat much in the morning.

"Why don't I go down to cook." Ji Lianxing put down the card in his hand and prepared to get out of bed and put on shoes.

Jiang Shu was one step ahead of her and said, "You play with Xiaotan, and I'll go down and cook lunch for you."

"Sister, let the mouse go, the mouse is delicious!" Jiang Xiaotan wanted to play cards with Ji Lianxing, so of course he didn't want Ji Lianxing to leave.

When these two sang together, Ji Lianxing could only give up.

When Jiang Shu went downstairs, the lobby on the first floor was very quiet. It was estimated that because of the rain, the guests were resting upstairs, and the front desk also went back to the room to take a nap.

She walked towards the backyard. There were two dens in the corner of the yard, where cats and dogs were squatting for shelter from the rain.

The white cat named Mouse stared at Jiang Shu, blinking with a pair of different pupils, as if he could see through everything.

The next second, another small head stuck out from the cat's nest, and a white cat jumped out beside him. It turned out to be a star.

Xingxing and mice get along very harmoniously, and they burrowed into a nest to sleep in a few days, maybe because they are both white cats, they still look alike, as if they have found a sister who has been lost for many years.

Jiang Shu thought it was very cute, so he stayed for a while to tease the cat, and finally got into the kitchen.

It was still raining outside, the water on the eaves was ticking, and the air was mixed with a few hints of coolness. She took out the ingredients from the refrigerator and started cooking, and she felt very comfortable cooking alone.

She is going to cook some home-cooked dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, and then cook a soup.

A few years ago, Jiang Shu didn't like to cook, and liked to eat outside. Later, he lived alone. After living for a long time, his personality became Buddhist, and he liked to cook by himself.

She picked the vegetables, washed them, and prepared to fry them when she heard the dogs barking in the yard. Putting down the things in his hand, he glanced outside the door and found that someone was standing in the hall with a suitcase, as if to open a room.

She was going to call Xiao Zhang, but as soon as she walked into the living room, she saw a familiar figure.

A woman wearing sunglasses and bright lipstick stood at the door of the counter. Two years later, she has matured a lot, but her face is still young.

"Yu Meng?" Jiang Shu was a little surprised. If he remembered correctly, he heard Ji Lianxing say that Yu Meng left the country two years ago, didn't he come back next year?

Hearing the words, the other party turned his head, and when he saw Jiang Shu, his face was no less astonished than Jiang Shu, but it was also fleeting, and he quickly recovered.

About Jiang Shu, Ji Lianxing said on the phone a while ago.

How should I put it, because of that incident, Yu Meng wanted to pinch Jiang Shu on the spot. She hated this person and regretted not stopping Ji Lianxing from getting to know her.

But after knowing that this was a misunderstanding, her mood was also quite complicated, and she was considered half of the parties. So when she saw Jiang Shu again, she was a little overwhelmed. After all, she never said harsh words to Jiang Shu.

On the contrary, Jiang Shu greeted him naturally: "Why are you back? Does Xiao Ji know?"

The tone was very normal, it seemed that she didn't take the original matter to heart, and Yu Meng was also relieved.

"No, surprise her."

Jiang Shu nodded with a smile, "Yes, then wait, I'll go upstairs and call her."

"No, what floor is she on? Why don't I go up and find her."

Yu Meng's impression of Jiang Shu was still that of a wealthy and wealthy woman who was aloof. She didn't dare to let her run away, so she had better go upstairs by herself.

"Okay, you go up, room 203. I'll go to the kitchen and cook the meal first."

Yu Meng slowly raised a question mark in her heart, is she so diligent? Cook for Ji Lianxing? The rich woman went to the countryside to take charge?

Although he thought so in his heart, Yu Meng didn't show it at all on his face.

"Okay, then I'll go up first."

On the second floor, Ji Lianxing and Jiang Xiaotan were about to start the second card game when there was a knock on the door.

"So fast." Ji Lianxing put on his shoes and got out of bed, thinking that Jiang Shu should know the password, why did he knock on the door, so he shouted through the door: "Who?"

Laughter came from outside the door: "Who are you talking about?"

! ! ! !

Ji Lianxing knew who this voice was even if he was talking while holding his nose. She quickly opened the door, and Yu Meng was standing outside the door.

"God! Why are you back!"

"Haha, I'm tired of staying abroad, it's lonely, it's better at home." Yu Meng reached out and hugged Ji Lianxing, her chin rested on Ji Lianxing's shoulder, and her eyes naturally fell on the bed, "Why still Have a child?"

The two separated, and Ji Lianxing began to introduce:

"This is Jiang Shu's niece. I brought her to play during the summer vacation."

Then he turned his head to Jiang Xiaotan and said, "Xiao Tan, my name is Sister Yu."

Jiang Xiaotan nodded obediently, "Hello, Sister Yu!"

"Hello, hello." Yu Meng didn't pull the suitcase into the door, "Is this your room or?"

Ji Lianxing quickly realized what was coming, and hurriedly said: "My house is upstairs."

Yu Meng raised her brows and understood what Ji Lianxing meant, "Oh~~"

"Xiao Tan, can you stay in the room for a while? I'll take Sister Yu upstairs to put things."

Jiang Xiaotan nodded obediently, "Okay~ I'll play by myself for a while."

The two hadn't seen each other for too long, and there was too much to say. Ji Lianxing shared some luggage for Yu Meng and took her to the third floor.

"How did you get here? Quietly."

"Follow the address." In the past, Yu Meng sent things to Ji Lianxing abroad. Of course, he knew the address here, but he was a little surprised when he actually arrived here. "You lived here for two years?"

Ji Lianxing nodded, "Yes, it's pretty good here, but it's a bit off from the city, but I don't like places that are too noisy, you know."

"What do you plan to do in the future?"

Going to the third floor, Ji Lianxing took out the key to open the door, "I have no plans for now, but my career is the main one. I recently took a fancy to a project, and it is estimated that I will spend a lot of time in the future."

She handed a pair of slippers to Yu Meng and took her into the house.

Yu Meng looked around the room. It was very spacious, with a strong sense of design, good lighting, and a wide field of vision, just enough to see the outside scenery.

The equipment is also complete, there are projectors, players, you can listen to music and draw, it is a completely independent personal space. Based on Yu Meng's understanding of Ji Lianxing, Ji Lianxing lived the life he wanted.

"Your house is fine, isn't this your dream house?"

"I asked a friend to help design it." Ji Lianxing went to the water dispenser to pour water for Yu Meng, handed it to her, and asked, "What about you? What are your plans in the future?"

Yu Meng took a sip of the water and sat on the sofa, as if she had something to say.

"I want to stay in China in the future." She tapped her finger on the cup a few times and looked at Ji Lianxing, "I've made some money in the past few years. I want to cooperate with you."

Yu Meng is a straightforward person who doesn't like to beat around the bush. She wants to start a business like Ji Lianxing.

When Ji Lianxing wanted to open a homestay, she was very excited, but she finally gave up because she didn't have much money just out of the society. In addition, the company intends to promote her, so she finally chose to go abroad to see if she could earn some capital.

"Really?" Ji Lianxing was quite surprised. She thought that after Yu Meng returned from abroad, she would probably return to City A in the end, but she didn't expect that she would stay here. you sure?"

"Sure, very sure." Yu Meng said with a smile: "We said a long time ago that we want to open a homestay together, although now your dream has come true, but I also want to try it, neither of us can do it. few."

Speaking of homestays, Ji Lianxing now has three or four under her name. In fact, she is very busy. She would like Yu Meng to join in and manage them with her, and her acquaintances are more trustworthy.

As for Yu Meng, if she wants to open a new store, she actually does not recommend it. It will take too much time and energy. The most important thing is that the bars and B&Bs in Lumei County are already close to saturation. If Yu Meng opens a new store, the probability of loss It's actually quite big.

"I have a new project here. Would you like to consider it? Regarding the homestay, you can also invest in it, don't worry."

Yu Meng pricked up his ears and listened, "New project?"

"Yes, I'll introduce a friend to you when I'm empty. They are the masters of food ups. Now their business extends to the live broadcast side, mainly helping fruit farmers sell fruit. We experimented today, and the effect is very good. Later, we plan to find a team to work on this together. I am worried that there are not enough cooperators to start this project, do you have any intentions?"

As soon as she heard the fruit selling and the live broadcast, Yu Meng instantly thought of a person. It was a crooked fight, and she came home by coincidence.

"The team, I think I might be able to help. Let's discuss this matter, maybe it will come true." Yu Meng opened the suitcase, took out a business card and handed it to Ji Lianxing, "This person can set up a team. Great, please contact her when you are free."

Ji Lianxing took the business card and looked at the name of the person above: Chi Wen.

"Okay, I'll contact her when I'm free." Ji Lianxing helped Yu Meng put the box away, "Let's go, let's go down and get ready to eat."

"By the way, I just met Jiang Shu downstairs." Yu Meng had a hundred questions to ask, "You and her?"

"It's still in the mutual understanding stage."

Yu Meng nodded and looked at Ji Lianxing, "I think she is quite patient, at least she is serious about you, will you guys reconcile in the future?"

"Probably, but only if both parties are prepared."

In the past few days, Ji Lianxing's mood has been a little high, of course there is Jiang Shu's reason, but happy is happy.

They are adults, not children. Love needs not only hormones, but also financial support. There are still many problems to be solved between her and Jiang Shu, such as work.

Jiang Shu has a career in City A, she has a career here, whether Jiang Shu likes life here, how long they can stay here, and how they should find a balance should all be taken into consideration.

Ji Lianxing pulled back his thoughts and felt that it was too early to think about this.

"Come on, go downstairs for dinner first."

During lunch, the rain continued unabated, and it had reached the level of heavy rain. In broad daylight, lightning began to occur on the other side of the mountain.

At that time, Jiang Shu was serving dishes, and when he saw the lightning, his heart trembled, his feet became weak, his heart beat faster, and the fear in his heart rose.

Ji Lianxing happened to see this scene when she went downstairs. Jiang Shu's pale face and her terrified expression made Ji Lianxing feel that she had been dragged to a long time ago, when she was still working in City A. It was raining heavily that afternoon, and it was also outside the window. There was lightning and thunder, and Jiang Shu sent a message to let her go to the office. It was at that time that she knew that Jiang Shu was afraid of thunder.

"Are you alright?" Ji Lianxing stepped up, took the plate in her hand, and glanced outside worriedly. Fortunately, it was only lightning, and the thunder had not yet arrived.

"It's okay." Jiang Shu shook his head, his eyes turned to Jiang Xiaotan, "Come here for dinner."

With Yu Meng, an extra pair of chopsticks were added, and the four sat down to eat.

Jiang Shu picked up the vegetables and put them in Jiang Xiaotan's bowl.

"You eat the mouse too!" Jiang Xiaotan put the meat with chopsticks in Jiang Shu's bowl.

"Eat more." Jiang Shu's voice was a little hoarse, sounding like he was uncomfortable.

In an instant, another flash of lightning fell from the sky in a bright white light. The lightning in August, like a beast with its fangs bared, came threateningly.

Jiang Shu breathed for a while, waiting for the thunder after the lightning, but the sound did not arrive.

"Are you all right?" Ji Lianxing put down the bowl, reached out to Jiang Shu with one hand, and patted the back of her hand lightly.

Yu Meng cast a confused look, not knowing the situation, thinking she was uncomfortable.

Boom! ! !

Unpreparedly, a huge thunder struck down.

Before Jiang Shu could make a sound, Ji Lianxing hugged her and whispered in her ear: "It's alright, don't be afraid, I'm here." Then he explained to Yu Meng: "She's a little afraid of thunder, you Eat yours first."

Yu Meng was a little confused. She knew that some people were afraid of thunder, but she had never seen such a violent reaction as Jiang Shu, but she felt that Jiang Shu didn't want to be watched, so Yu Meng looked away and lowered her head to eat.

Jiang Xiaotan cast a worried look at Jiang Shu. She had lived with Jiang Shu for so many years, and of course she knew that she was afraid of thunder. She wanted to say something to Jiang Shu. As usual chattering, but said nothing.

Jiang Shu closed her eyes and her temples were throbbing. She hated thunderstorms, which reminded her of many years ago, that August night, also on that night, when a car accident took her brother away. Big, thunderous, before the car accident, she was arguing with him, she was the one who survived, and the other lived in the grave.

Many people said that the car accident was an accident and that the truck was to blame, but Jiang Shu always felt that if he hadn't quarreled with him that day, wouldn't his brother be distracted and crash into the car?

It is said that when people have a car accident, most drivers will turn the steering wheel to the left. This is a subconsciousness of self-protection. Because the car turns left, it will hit the co-pilot at the first time, so it is often said that the co-pilot is most dangerous location.

But that night, Jiang Shu's brother turned the steering wheel to the right. Although they were arguing before the accident, he still chose to protect his sister when danger occurred.

This is Jiang Shu's lingering shadow. After so many years, once there is a thunderstorm, I will still think of that night. I feel guilty, quite guilty, and regretful, but my life cannot be repeated.

"Little Hedgehog." Jiang Shu leaned against Ji Lianxing's arms, trying to find a sense of security in her arms, "Can you make it stop thundering?"

The seemingly absurd request, Ji Lianxing did not refuse.

"Okay, I'll stop the thunder." Regardless of Yu Meng's strange gaze, Ji Lianxing hugged her in his arms, and she whispered in Jiang Shu's ear: "Remember what I told you a long time ago? I will always be with you. Don't be afraid, trust me, I can protect you."

Not just talking about it, Ji Lianxing thought so in her heart. Her distress for Jiang Shu always came from her heart, she didn't want to see her hurt, worried about her emotions, and understood her fears.

At this time, there was another flash of lightning on the other side of the mountain, Ji Lianxing covered Jiang Shu's ears with both hands, and hugged her tightly.

rumbling--

It was a deafening thunder.

Jiang Shu didn't tremble this time, she felt that sense of security in Ji Lianxing's warm palm. In the past, Jiang Shu was very confused. She didn't understand why she liked Ji Lianxing when she first saw her, and she didn't understand what was special about Ji Lianxing.

But at this moment, I seem to understand, that feeling is like a person standing on the barren land, helplessly waiting for the judgment of God, but the **** of death turned a corner and brought the sunshine for her.

When the thunder faded, Ji Lianxing let go and asked her, "Are you still afraid?"

Jiang Shu opened his eyes and shook his head, "I'm not so afraid anymore."

She saw anxiety in Ji Lianxing's eyes. This kind of feeling of being worried is very different. Jiang Shu thinks that maybe Ji Lianxing will really protect her. Like she said, no matter how loud the thunder is, she will By her side, she was not alone when faced with lightning and thunder.
