Chapter 32
Chapter 31 – Thriving
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, everything returned to normal.
Li Wanqiu came home last night and painted for a long time. Although she slept a bit late, she still woke up very early. After washing up, she ate a piece of bread. When she was about to go downstairs, she suddenly received a call from Li Qing.
Unlike her, Li Qing was arranged to take over the branch of the Li family as soon as he graduated. Facts have proved that he is indeed a material for doing business, but within a few years he has managed the company in an orderly manner and the business is booming. rise.
But correspondingly, he hardly has much personal time.
Why have I started to call her frequently these two days.
Li Wanqiu pressed the answer button and put the phone to her ear: “Hello?”
“Hello?” The phone was connected, and Li Qing’s smiling voice came from the other end, “Are you going to work today?”
Li Wanqiu nodded: “Go.”
Li Qing asked again: “Have you gone out?”
“Not yet.” Li Wanqiu didn’t know what he was going to do, “What’s wrong?”
“It’s great not to go out.” Li Qing said, seemingly relieved, “I happen to be downstairs at your house, come down, I’ll take you to Bixia.”
“You sent me off?” Li Wanqiu was a little surprised, “Are you on vacation today?”
“That’s right.” Li Qing said, “I’ve been feeling a little uncomfortable these two days. I watched the sky at night and thought it was time to rest for a while.”
Also watch the sky at night.
Li Wanqiu was a little speechless, and somehow wanted to laugh. After all, it was indeed a long time since we saw each other, so I finally said good bye.
After going downstairs, he saw Li Qing’s car within two steps.
“Have you had breakfast?” Li Qing asked, and started the car immediately after she came up.
“I ate a piece of bread.” Li Wanqiu said, lowering her eyes to fasten her seat belt, then raised her head, and saw Li Qing handing over a piece of breakfast, “I guessed it, here, I bought it for you.”
This scene made Li Wanqiu think of Ji Jinyan inexplicably.
But unlike Ji Jinyan, what Li Qing bought her was fast food.
Li Wanqiu couldn’t laugh or cry: “KFC.”
“What’s the matter?” Li Qing raised his eyebrows, “Didn’t you like to eat this the most when you were young? I was away from home all the time when I was in high school, and you pestered me to go there every holiday. Why, you don’t like it now.”
“Not really.” Li Wanqiu murmured softly, took out a cup of coffee and took a sip.
Li Qing glanced at her, then smiled silently: “I understand, our little friend Ah Qiu has grown up.”
Another kid.
Li Wanqiu glanced sideways at him: “Don’t call me that.”
As soon as the words fell, the smile in Li Qing’s eyes became more presumptuous, and he continued to chat with her for a while, but before he could say anything more, the phone rang suddenly.
During the vacation time, Li Qing didn’t want to deal with too much work, and didn’t wear a Bluetooth headset. He looked at the caller ID on the screen, and didn’t mean to avoid Li Wanqiu, so he pressed the outgoing button.
In a second, a familiar voice sounded: “Good morning, Brother Qing, are you busy today?”
Guan Chun?
Li Wanqiu was taken aback when he heard the sound, he didn’t expect Guan Chun and Li Qing to still be in touch, his brows were subconsciously frowned.
Li Qing glanced at Li Wanqiu at the side, and then said: “What’s wrong?”
“I heard from my aunt that you are on vacation today.” Guan Chun said, with a gentle tone, “It happens that I don’t go to work today, and I want to talk to you about some work matters.”
“That’s really a bit of a coincidence.” After finishing speaking, Li Qing sighed, “I’m pretty busy right now.”
Guan Chun over there seems to have paused: “What about after that?”
“I’m a little busy in the future, and I have some personal matters to deal with.” Li Qing said, and smiled slightly, “I’m sorry, let’s wait another day.”
After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone without waiting for Guan Chun to respond.
Li Wanqiu looked up at Li Qing: “How did she contact you?”
“Then who knows.” Li Qing said, shrugging helplessly, “Maybe I got the number from my mother.”
“She is a celebrity in front of her parents now.” Li Qing sighed, “I came over for dinner yesterday during the Mid-Autumn Festival.”
“Oh.” Li Wanqiu nodded, and when she heard Li Qing say this, she felt a little glad that she had made the decision to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival alone instead of going home and staying with Guan Chun.
“Forget it, let’s not talk about her.” Without waiting for Li Wanqiu to say anything, Li Qing spoke again, his tone seemed a little serious, “I think we haven’t seen each other for a long time.”
“Is there anything on your mind that you want to tell me recently?” He said, looking at Li Wanqiu’s profile.
What’s on my mind… It’s really hard to tell.
When the two of them were talking, the car had already gone halfway, and seeing that they were about to arrive, Li Wanqiu stared out the window a little silently, and said after a while: “Actually, I don’t have anything to say, it’s nothing more than an awkward dispute with my family.”
“I know that.” Li Qing laughed as soon as the words fell, “Two days ago, my mother said you were rebellious.”
“…” Li Wanqiu was a little angry when she heard the words, “Oh.”
“Don’t be angry, our Aqiu is still young.” Li Qing smiled, turned a corner at the intersection ahead, and the car finally arrived at the destination.
He parked the car in front of Bixia’s gate, but he didn’t rush to tell Li Wanqiu to go down, instead he said: “By the way, I’ll tell you a secret.”
Li Wanqiu paused, seeing his mysterious appearance and still a little curious: “What secret?”
“Look!” Li Qing smiled, and suddenly raised his hand to roll up his sleeves. Li Wanqiu looked down and saw a tattoo clearly lying on his left arm, which looked like it had been tattooed not long ago. Still a little red and swollen.
Li Wanqiu was startled: “What are you doing?”
“I don’t do anything.” Li Qing thought for a while and said, “I’ve been a little bored recently. I happened to meet a friend who is in a band. I followed them to watch the scene a few times. I fell in love with them for no reason. When I saw that they all had tattoos, I also fell in love. Go get a tattoo.”
“How about it, handsome?” He said, raising his hand to touch Li Wanqiu’s head, “Now you are not the only one who rebelled in our family, I will accompany you.”
With me by your side, this sentence is inexplicably touching.
Li Wanqiu raised his eyes to look at Li Qing, and felt for the first time that he understood him completely, or as if he had never understood him, paused, and couldn’t help but chuckle.
“Does it hurt?” She asked afterward, with a hint of a smile in her tone, “It’s so silly.”
“Tsk.” As soon as the words were finished, Li Qing frowned, and waved his hands as if he didn’t want to see her, “Go, go, I don’t know how to appreciate it, go to work.”
“Then I’m leaving.” Li Wanqiu said, opened the door and got out of the car. After walking a few steps, she turned around and waved to Li Qing, “I’ll treat you to dinner later when I have time.”
“Ah.” Li Qing nodded, watched Li Wanqiu disappear from sight, and then looked away again, “My little sister, the older I get, the harder it is to manage.”
Having said that, there was a smile on his face, he paused, he couldn’t help but gasped, and said in a low voice, “Actually, it still hurts.”
After three days of vacation, there was naturally a lot of work left behind. Li Wanqiu took care of it carefully and quickly before he was about to take a break, when Ji Jinyan walked in.
“Busy?” Ji Jinyan asked with a gentle smile on his face.
“It’s okay.” Li Wanqiu blinked at her, “What’s wrong?”
“There will be customers coming in a while, and I’m going to take them to the brewing workshop.” Ji Jinyan said, “Together?”
It’s not impossible, after so many days, she also wants to see how the batch of grapes picked before are now being handled.
Li Wanqiu nodded: “Okay.”
After finishing speaking, he quickly sorted out the files on the desktop, and the corners of his slightly raised lips were obvious.
She seems to be in a good mood today.
Ji Jinyan looked at her, and slightly opened his lips as if to say something, when Assistant An came in and interrupted their conversation.
Ji Jinyan withdrew his gaze and reviewed the documents in his hand. After processing, the time was almost up.
“Let’s go.” Li Wanqiu took a few steps forward and came to her side.
“Yeah.” Ji Jinyan smiled and walked forward with her.
The couple who are going to visit Bi Xia today are about 50 or 60 years old, but they are still young at heart, and their conversation is quite elegant. Li Wanqiu also learned a lot while chatting with them, and benefited a lot.
“I haven’t seen this little girl before.” The two seemed to have some old friends with Ji Jinyan. After the visit, they went to the rest area to sit down together, chatting while drinking tea.
“I’m new here.” Li Wanqiu responded to them with a smile, “If there is anything wrong, please bear with me.”
Not only is it cute, but it has a sweet mouth.
The couple love her very much, and they seem to see the shadow of their daughter in her, and they are not stingy in their praise: “The little girl is great, she is hardworking and excellent at first sight.”
“In the future, learn more from Mr. Ji.” The woman said, “I will definitely accomplish a lot.”
Li Wanqiu was a little embarrassed to praise her.
“Well, thank you.” Li Wanqiu smiled, got up to refill the tea for the two, glanced at Ji Jinyan’s face, and saw a faint smile on the corner of her lips.
After staying for another half an hour, the two got up and prepared to go back. Ji Jinyan and Li Wanqiu went to see off the guests together, passing a small garden on the way back.
It had only rained last night, and the flowers in the garden were even more delicately decorated. Li Wanqiu noticed a pink rose, and couldn’t help squatting down to take a second look, pointing to Ji Jinyan while looking at it: “Ji Jinyan Take a look, how beautiful the flowers are.”
“Yeah.” Ji Jinyan responded, but his eyes still stayed on her, “It’s very pretty.”
“This one hasn’t fully bloomed yet.” Li Wanqiu continued, raising her hand to gently stroke the petals, “It will still grow.”
“Yes.” Ji Jinyan smiled, then took a few steps forward, and squatted beside her.
Today’s sun is quite bright, bright and warm, and it is very comfortable to cover her body. Ji Jinyan looked over and saw the sun resting on her hair, and it also caught her eyes.
It makes Li Wanqiu look like she’s shining even if she doesn’t do anything, just stay here.
Just like what the couple said, she will definitely accomplish a lot in the future. Ji Jinyan is very accurate in judging people, and she has come to a conclusion early in the morning.
Thinking of this, the smile in her eyes grew stronger, and she raised her hand to touch Li Wanqiu’s head, as if she was gently stroking the petals of flowers.
Softly said: “Li Wanqiu, let’s grow vigorously.”
