Chapter 42 Let me introduce you to my friend
Xia Shu'an had a simple and comfortable New Year.
It is said that after the two of them went upstairs last night, they nestled on the sofa in the bedroom and watched the New Year's Eve party under the same blanket... Forget it, let's not talk about it, Xia Shu'an doesn't want to recall.
In short, Xia Shuan deliberately indulged herself the next day, and didn't get up slowly until after nine o'clock in the morning.Auntie cooked seafood porridge, served with exquisite pickled cucumbers.It was already 10 o'clock when Xia Shuan finished her breakfast, so she asked her aunt to postpone her lunch time to 1 o'clock in the afternoon.He ran back to the study to read books and watch programs, indulge himself completely, and enjoy the first day of the new year.
Unlike him, Shen Boyan only woke up 1 minutes later than usual on January 1, but he lingered on the bed for another half an hour before slowly getting out of bed.When Xia Shu'an entered the study, he was dealing with work inside. Mr. Shen was still busy on the first day of 10, and there were too many people who wanted to greet him.
Xia Shu'an's head was resting on the soft sofa cushion. Today's sunshine is very good, the white light is like sparkling water, and the floor-to-ceiling windows are covered with pieces of gold.
While looking at the picture in his hand, Xia Shu'an listened to Shen Boyan's contacts with one ear and one ear. His handsome and upright face revealed a sinister and vicious face, and his mind was full of intrigues. belly.
"I'm not that greedy. I can't swallow such a big piece of fat from the Gu family by myself. Since Wenhui entered Rongchuan, Mr. Zhuang has taken good care of us. I hope we can have better cooperation in the future."
"...What you're saying is that Mrs. Gu has done a lot of things over the years. Everyone has been tolerant because of his ancestor's contribution to Rongchuan, but this time he has indeed done too much... It's just that it's inconvenient for me to come forward, and Bureau Guo hopes that you can play around."
There was a rattling sound from the sofa. Shen Boyan turned his head from the window and saw the young man lying on the sofa with a charging laptop on the table beside him. He was swipe two fingers on the pad in his hand.
"Well, okay, then thank you, Mr. Zhuang, I will visit you another day."
……
The man approached the sofa soundlessly and knelt down.
"looking at what?"
A short video is playing on the screen, which is the daily dynamics of a black and white kitten taken by the owner.Xia Shu'an looked at with her chin propped up, the expression on her face following the appearance of a cat, showing a soft expression for a while, frowning for a while, biting her lips for a silly smile, shaking her head occasionally, revealing her pink ears, which also looked like large folded ears like a cat.
Shen Boyan reached out and played with his hair.
"Like cats?"
"I like it, but I can't keep it. I'm allergic to animal hair."
"When I was in high school, I went to my grandparents' hometown for a while to study. It was a small city, and there were many stray cats. There were often cats in our school. They were very cute. I wanted to get close to them, but I couldn't. I can watch from afar.”
His tone was slightly regretful, full of the helplessness of a cat lover. After a while, his tone rose again, with a look of joy recalling the past:
"However, I would occasionally follow my classmates to feed them. At that time, there was often a little black wild cat on the way home. I remember that someone walked the same way home as me, so I gave the snacks to Him, ask him to help me feed the cat, and I'll be watching not far away."
Shen Boyan's palm on top of his head was warm and gentle. He leaned forward and kissed Xia Shu'an's cheek, licked his lips like a cat, and stood up again:
"This posture is not good for the cervical spine, so don't do it for a long time."
"understood."
Time passed quickly in the morning, and after dinner in the afternoon, "The Sick Beauty Bai Yueguang Decided to Put Down (Rebirth)", remember the website: m.1., Aunt Yu came to ask for leave: "I have something to do in my hometown, I have to go back to my hometown, and I won't be back until the 8th .”
Aunt Yu’s child is going to get married, she must go home to help, Shen Boyan is not a stingy boss, all the companies under the Wenhui Group have special benefits for newlywed colleagues, he took out a big red envelope on the spot, it is really a huge Red envelope.
Xia Shuan watched from the side, a little dazed.
When Aunt Yu left, Shen Boyan said with a normal expression, "Why, you want it too?"
"No, I'm just surprised." Xia Shu'an moved her lips and said:
"Should I return so much money in cash now? Isn't it more convenient to transfer money?"
"Aunt Yu's hometown has a custom to give cash as red envelopes to the best man, bridesmaid and unmarried juniors in the family."
"So that's how it is." The bonuses given by the boss to employees can be transferred, but traditional cash is usually used for such ceremonial red envelopes.
"Ah, yes, you and Aunt Yu are from the same town." Aunt Yu is the one who has been with him the longest in the family, and she is also from the same town. Not to mention his confidant, she is at least half of his own family. It is normal for Shen Boyan to be generous to her.
"What other customs do you have?"
Shen Boyan looked at him: "Curious?"
Just as Xia Shuan was about to say yes, when she saw the familiar light in his eyes, she immediately shook her head in fright, and went upstairs to check on her own.
Shen Boyan looked at his back and shook his head helplessly.
Because the holiday was only for one day, the two of them didn't want to make a fuss, so they stayed at home all day, watching the housekeeper clean the room and basking in the sun on the roof.And because he had to go to work the next day, and because he had been tossing and tossing for a long time last night, Shen Boyan also restrained himself at night, and only "posted" for a while.
The next day, Xia Shu'an went to work normally.
Only a year has passed, and it seems that the world has taken on a new look. The Gu family, which caused an uproar years ago, has been left behind. Together with their company's reputation, along with the past 2022, it has been buried in the public's memory. Nor will it be remembered.
Everyone went to work on the first day of the new year, and everyone was very energetic.
"Speaking of which, Xiaoxia, you are much more cheerful this year than before, and you look more energetic and energetic!" said the senior sister.
"Really?" Xia Shu'an responded casually.
He is "vigorous" and "vigorous" from being angry.This life is pretty good, but in the last life it was miserable, when Shen Boyan was so angry when he had nothing to do, his whole body was like a firecracker.
But because he is not good at bringing emotions to work, everyone didn't see his anger. Instead, he was rated as "a positive and new work outlook" by his mentor, which shows that people's joys and sorrows are not interlinked.
Xia Shu'an sat down and processed the data for a while, and suddenly several messages popped up on the phone. Xia Shu'an saw that it was from Assistant Lin, and clicked on him thinking he had something to do.
Assistant Lin's style is still straightforward, without delay.
[Assistant Lin: Which one do you prefer, the left or the right? 】
A question mark slowly appeared on Xia Shu'an's head.What Assistant Lin showed him was a picture of an airplane, on which there were two airplanes on the left and right, one was a white propeller plane, and the other was a typical business jet.
Xia Shu'an looked at the message above, and was at a loss for a moment: What does this mean?Want to buy him a plane?
Just as Xia Shu'an was about to reply, another message came from the other side:
[Assistant Lin: Mr. Shen said that this is a Christmas gift for you. Please choose the model you like. If you want, you can choose the subsequent painting and interior decoration by yourself. 】
Xia Shu'an's pupils trembled instantly.
According to Shen Boyan's "as long as you are good, I will give you more" overlord circuit, after Xia Shu'an prepared a gift for him last time, it was a bit strange that he didn't reply, but it was an eventful time at that time. Last Xia Shu'an had also passed the age of caring about these forms, so she put this little question behind her every dollar. Unexpectedly, after a week, things turned up again.
Although, but—this is too outrageous.A small keychain is exchanged for an airplane, and the keychain wins!
Xia Shu'an took a closer look at the two planes in the picture again, and remembered that the original intention of buying the gift was to make Shen Boyan less troublesome to him, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
[Xia Shu'an: The one on the left. 】
[Assistant Lin: Got it. 】
Not long after putting down the phone, a senior happened to pass by: "Wow, Xiao Xia, what is your expression?"
Xia Shu'an slowly raised her head, showing a dreamy expression:
"If the research office has no money and has to sell the 'family property' to obtain research funds, I may be able to buy them!"
Then those flowers, plants, trees and trees all have a home!
The senior's eyes moved, revealing the expression of "broken another child".
That's the way everyone who does research, Fei Zi!
"Ah, by the way, I almost forgot to tell you. The boss said that the first fund for the enterprise project you introduced has arrived. It just so happens that today is the first day of work after the New Year. He invites us to dinner tonight. Can you?"
"Yes." Xia Shu'an said immediately.
After bidding farewell to his colleagues, he lowered his head and typed into the WeChat page:
[Xia Shu'an: Help me tell Shen Boyan that there is a dinner party with colleagues tonight, so I won't be going back for dinner. 】
When Assistant Lin walked into the office expressionlessly with his mobile phone, Shen Boyan was on the phone. He put down the phone, took the mobile phone he handed over, and raised his eyebrows after recognizing the line on the screen:
This was really a big "surprise". He prepared a plane for his boyfriend, who planned not to go home for dinner at night, but to hang out outside.
Shen Boyan returned the phone, and Assistant Lin took it quickly, watching his nose, nose, nose, nose, nose, nose and heart without saying a word.
Shen Boyan didn't tell him to go out immediately, but pondered for a while on the seat.
"Do I have a schedule for tonight?"
This matter has been confirmed in the morning and at noon, but Assistant Lin still replied: "No."
"Yeah." The man behind the desk let out a chuckle:
"very good."
……
......
Xia Shu'an and the others went to a newly opened Cantonese restaurant. It is said that it was opened by a local from Guangzhou, and the taste is authentic.Xia Shuan has been deceived by "authentic local dishes" many times. In fact, she doesn't hold out hope.Taking a look in the past, I also found that the taste is really ordinary and delicious.
There were a total of nine people on the table, and it was also a full table. Everyone was colleagues and classmates. There was neither philistinism nor scruples of social people among each other. They each chose their favorite dishes, and the atmosphere was very lively.
"Wow, this squab is delicious, please try it!"
"Intestine rolls, my roll rolls, I haven't eaten authentic roll rolls for a long time, oh my five yuan a bowl of egg rolls..."
The people next to him disliked him: "How old are you, now the average price of egg rolls is 7 yuan."
These are the two classmates inside, and Xia Shuan's outside is:
"Xiao Xia, today's meal is really thanks to you, come, I respect you!"
As she spoke, she proudly picked up the cup in her hand.
"I did it, you can do whatever you want!" After finishing speaking, he drank the oolong tea in the cup with a thud.
Xia Shu'an could only pick up the warm corn juice dumbfounded.
"Okay, I'm free."
"Don't drink too much, don't drink too much." Senior's boyfriend hurriedly advised her:
"Be careful of hurting your stomach."
The senior sister turned her head and held his hand: "Okay, okay, don't worry."
Xia Shu'an: "..."
Are you all actors?
"Go to the bathroom." Xia Shuan got up and walked out. There were not many people in the bathroom. He lowered his head and carefully rubbed his hands with the hand sanitizer. Suddenly, he felt an unusual gaze cast on him. He subconsciously raised his head and looked Looking in front of the mirror.
".…..Why are you here?"
A man with a height of 1.9 meters, with his long legs wrapped under suit pants, stopped naturally and as a matter of course on the sink next to Xia Shuan. He slowly stretched his hand towards the sensing area, and the warm water flowed very quickly. Quickly rushed down.
"Because this is a public place?"
Xia Shu'an: "..."
"Oh." He said "surprised" and "shocked" as if he only discovered Xia Shuan at this moment:
"So you're here too, what a coincidence."
"...."
Xia Shu'an took a breath, feeling that after suppressing the speechlessness in her heart, the world returned to its bright colors.
With a slight smile on his lips, and a warm light in his eyes, he said gently, word by word:
"Since it's such a coincidence, do you want to have dinner with me?"
"Can you?"
"Of course, there is nothing wrong with introducing friends to colleagues." If not, can I still go to work tomorrow?
"Oh, then respect is worse than obedience." The man took out a tissue, wiped his hands slowly and gracefully, and said:
"Then let's go."
The two walked towards the private room unhurriedly, Xia Shu'an took the time to glance at the man beside him.He probably understood what Shen Boyan was thinking, after all, it was all about possessiveness and desire to control.During this period of getting along, he has already figured out Shen Boyan's temper, he just takes the soft and not the hard.
As long as you agree with him in a good manner, rely on him, and let him continue to be convinced of the matter of consolidating "Shen Boyan's position in Xia Shuan's heart", he will allow you to move within the normal range.
What a bad temper.
The two were still a few steps away from the door of the private room, Xia Shu'an suddenly reached out and pulled Shen Boyan's finger.
Shen Boyan was concentrating on what to say when he met Xia Shu'an's colleague later, when suddenly his hand was touched, and the next moment a soft hand held his hand, and the two held hands tightly.
Shen Boyan suddenly turned to look at the young man.
With a normal expression, Xia Shu'an opened the door and walked into the room calmly.
"Xiao Xia, you are back—"
"Who is this?"
People in the room looked over one after another, and the first thing they noticed was the tall and well-figured adult man beside Xia Shuan, and the next second, their gazes were instantly attracted by the hands they held, like a weak and pitiful The helpless little screw is generally attracted by the giant magnet.
Xia Shu'an seemed to realize it at this moment, "belatedly", "lightning" let go of the man's hand, and smiled embarrassedly at everyone.
Everyone: "..."
