Wildfire

Chapter 20: indulgence

Qi Man went back from Nancheng and took a few books with a pile of books in her bag. After getting in the car, she said to the bodyguard, "Thank you."

Her voice was slightly muted, the corners of her eyes were reddish, and her delicate features were calm and indifferent. The whole temperament seemed to have settled down. The bodyguard looked at her puzzledly, thinking that she had only been in for half an hour. Why did she seem to be reborn?

He wouldn't ask, he just nodded lightly to signal her to get in the car.

Qi Man climbed into the car and looked at the house in Nancheng at the moment the bodyguard closed the door. After a few minutes, he retracted his sight and said to the driver in front: "Drive."

The sound is clear, like rain from outside knocking on the window, and there is still two coolness in the crispness.

The driver didn't consciously sit upright, and said back to her: "Yes, Miss Qi."

The engine started, and the high-end sedan that was out of place here left Nancheng and drove in the other direction. Qi Man sat in the car leaning on the back of his chair, listening to the lingering rain outside, feeling very calm, and even wanted to listen to a song.

"Can you play some music?"

The driver was very cooperative: "What music does Miss Qi want to listen to?"

What do you want to hear?

Qi Man pursed his lips for a few seconds: "Just the previous one."

She calmly said, "It sounds pretty good."

The driver did not dare to neglect, and immediately turned on the music. Soothing music reverberated throughout the car. Qi Man turned his head and looked out the window. For the first time, he felt that it was not very annoying if it rained.

It was past five o’clock when I returned to the villa, the rain stopped, and the sky was clear. After Qi Man went back, he charged his mobile phone. She didn’t see any missed calls and no unread messages. She looked like she would give Zhizhi hey early and sit down. Looking at the coffee table, Zhizhi did not forget to send a message to Lu Qiao when he was eating: Is there any better moving company recommended?

It was still early, and there was no reply. Qi Man was not in a hurry. She got up and made herself a bite. At the end, she boiled a pot of chicken soup. It was rich and fragrant. Zhizhi who had just eaten the cat food couldn’t help but get together. Going to the kitchen, meowing, Qi Man lowered his body and hugged it, rubbed his forehead against the tip of his pink nose, and said slimly, "Do you still want to eat it?"

"You greedy cat."

Zhizhi licked her chin and seemed to indicate that if she wanted to eat, Qi Man never let it eat her own food, let alone this kind of greasy, but for the first time, she went to the kitchen and put a small spoonful of it. In front of Zhizhi, he whispered: "You are only allowed to eat so much."

"Meow—" Zhizhi raised his head to look at her, and Qi Man rubbed her hair: "Eat."

Zhizhi lowered his head to eat, Qi Man returned to the sofa in a good mood, and saw that Lu Qiao had already given her a message back:? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

With the question marks on the screen, you can expect her surprised expression. Qi Man changed the voice of the call back and called Lu Qiao: "Wake up?"

Lu Qiao said, "Hey? Your phone is connected? What's the situation? Are you moving?"

"No." Qi Man said: "There are still a lot of books in my old house, I want to change a place, it is too humid, not suitable for books."

Lu Qiao sighed slightly: "Well, then I'll help you take a look around."

Qi Man returned to her: "Okay, it's troublesome."

She finished saying, "Last time did you say that my dad branch opened?"

Lu Qiao said, "No. 14." She paused: "The day after tomorrow, do you want to come over?"

"Shall I arrange a car for you?"

"No." Qi Man said; "You will send me the address when the time comes, and I will go by myself."

Lu Qiao sighed for a while: "Come here? Then let me tell my uncle?"

Qi Man said: "Okay."

She spoke calmly and calmly, and could not hear any other overwhelming emotions. Lu Qiao expected that she should have figured it out clearly, and couldn't help but relax. Without saying more, the two chatted with Qi Man and hung up the phone.

After eating breakfast, she took the soup made by Kanyan and went out without hesitation carrying a bag. She came back half an hour later with an extra thermos pot in her hand. Zhizhi lay on the sofa and watched her walking around. It was fun. He also jumped off the sofa and followed her heels, spinning constantly, Qi Man was afraid that he would accidentally step on it and yelled, "Go to sleep."

Knowing his grievances, he meowed, and the round cat eyes were still looking at her, Qi Man repeated: "Go to sleep."

"Meow!" Zhizhi turned around, jumped back on the sofa, and continued to rest on his stomach.

Qi Man put the chicken soup in the heat preservation pot and made two more vegetarian dishes. Finally, the rice was placed on the bottom layer. After finishing everything, she walked out and the butler immediately said: "Miss Qi, go out?"

Qi Man turned his head to look at him: "Please help me prepare a car."

Although she was not instructing her tone, her attitude was quite different from before. Qi Man used to be more gentle and smiled when she saw him say hello. She never asked to prepare a car when she went out. She did it all by herself. Besides, she did it for a year. I can't go out a few times, so it was the housekeeper who heard her say back in the first time to prepare a car.

There are cars in the garage, as well as the driver. The butler hurriedly said: "Wait a moment."

Qi Man was standing in the sun. The heavy rain last night washed the road very clean, and the water stains reflected light. Qi Man squinted his eyes. Within a few minutes, the driver drove out.

It's the one from yesterday.

After Qi Man got in the car, the driver took the initiative: "Miss Qi, do you need to listen to songs?"

"Okay." Qi Man said: "Go to the hospital."

The driver turned on the music and asked, "Are you going to deliver food to President Li?"

He saw Qi Man with a thermos next to him, Qi Man smiled lightly: "Yeah."

With a cold and indifferent attitude, one word blocked the driver's mouth, and the wise driver did not dare to ask any more, and directly sent Qi Man to the hospital.

There were a lot of people in the hospital during the day than at night. Qi Man was no stranger to the hospital. He was still living in the ward for a while, but that was all a long time ago. Thinking about it this way, it feels like a world away.

She walked into the inpatient department with an insulation box. Li Yanzhi's ward was in a separate area and needed to swipe a card. She stood at the door. The nurse recognized her and swiped the card for her. Qi Man bowed his head: "Thank you."

The nurse smiled and said, "Miss, you are polite. Are you looking for Mr. Li, and I will take you there?"

Qi Man followed the nurse to the ward.

Someone is talking inside.

"Come here for a detailed inspection next time." It was Chu Yu's voice. He didn't expect him to get off work: "You must pay attention to rest when you go back. Remember."

"If you have a headache, call me right away and take medicine first."

Left and right instructed, Qi Man stood at the door, and the nurse knocked on the door: "Doctor Chu."

Chu Yu turned her head and saw Qi Man standing outside, she smiled: "Doctor Chu, morning."

Li Yanzhi saw Qi Man appear here and frowned. He seemed unhappy. Qi Man walked in and put the thermos box on the coffee table. He said to Li Yanzhi: "Mr. Li, I don’t know if you have breakfast. It’s degreasing chicken soup to replenish the body."

Chu Yu smiled: "Well, you secretary is quite caring."

"The more you look, the better."

Li Yanzhi glanced at him, his thin lips moved: "You go out."

Chu Yu closed the case: "Okay, I will come to complete the discharge procedures later."

He finished talking to Qi Man and said, "Miss Qi, see you next time."

Qi Manyang smiled: "See you next time."

With a happy expression, Li Yanzhi's face sank.

Chu Yu took the nurse away, and the bodyguard dutifully stood outside the door. Only Qi Man and Li Yanzhi were left in the room. They stood face to face for a few minutes. Li Yanzhi said, "Why are you here?"

"I am your secretary now." Qi Man said: "I have to do a full set of acting. Even if I am fired, I have to talk about the process. What if your aunt asks, isn't it revealing?"

Hearing her explanation, Li Yanzhi's face eased a lot, she said: "My aunt, don't worry, I will explain."

"It's common for companies to lay off employees, and she won't take it to heart."

"It's impossible to see yesterday and resign today." Qi Man said, "Let me do it for two days anyway."

Li Yanzhi had no answer for her occasional stubborn temper, and replied: "But I will go to Jiumei in two days."

"Then do it for these two days." Qi Man said, "I haven't worked for a long time."

She laughed: "I don't remember what it was like to work last time."

Li Yanzhi frowned when he heard the words, looked at her, and said, "Man, don't mess around."

"I'm not messing around." Qi Man said: "Then, I won't go to the company? I'll stay with you for two days as a secretary."

Li Yanzhi met her eyes with a smile, soft and cunning, her eyes were bright and energetic, she compromised: "Okay."

"Just two days."

Anyway, she didn't go to the company for these two days, it didn't matter if she wanted to raise her body and let Qi Man accompany her.

The corners of Qi Man's lips raised: "Eat breakfast, it's almost cold."

Li Yanzhi sat on the sofa and opened the insulation box. The fragrance was tangy, it was a familiar taste. She hadn't had a good meal these days, and she was really hungry.

Qi Man sat next to her, turning her head to see her eating, she was always elegant, chewing slowly, and she said to Li Yanzhi: "I'll go through the discharge procedures for you."

Li Yanzhi raised his eyes: "Well, Chu Yu has completed the formalities. Go and sign your name."

Qi Man nodded and walked out of the ward.

The moment the door closed, she pressed her back against the door frame and turned her head to look inside. Li Yanzhi was picking up vegetables, and the fine sunlight reflected through the window and fell on her, adding layers of halo, exquisite and beautiful, as before. see.

Qi Man turned his head and left the ward. After signing, she found that Li Yanzhi had cleaned up the ward. She carried the insulation box in her hand and saw Qi Man enter the door and said, "Go home."

"Let me carry it." Qi Man took the insulation box from her hand and said to himself: "I am the secretary."

Li Yanzhi was so blocked by her, there was nothing to say.

After the two got in the car, Qi Man asked, "Are you going to the company?"

"Not going anymore." Li Yanzhi took out his mobile phone from his bag: "I will go home and rest for two days."

There was no news from Lou Ya on her mobile phone. When she got to the villa, she asked Qi Man to go back first and stand outside alone to make a call.

Lou Ya's investigation speed is not so fast, but the first clues are already visible: "Mr. Li, Weihai has not had any major funding movements in the past six months. However, Mr. Qi invested in a project last year. I heard that he could not start construction due to environmental reasons. Less money."

Li Yanzhi nodded: "Continue to investigate. Before I come back, check out Qi Shaotang's affairs, especially in terms of funding."

Lou Ya didn't dare to neglect, and immediately said: "Understood."

After hanging up the phone, Li Yanzhi stood at the door for a while. She looked at the villa and sighed before walking in. Qi Man was teasing the cat. He turned his head when he heard footsteps behind him, and raised his lips: "I'm back."

Li Yanzhi put down his briefcase and mobile phone, walked to her, bent down to see what he knew: "Why are you playing with the cat again."

Qi Man said: "Nothing to do."

She said and got up: "Would you like to watch a movie?"

Is there any reason for such a straightforward invitation to Li Yanzhi? She looked at Qi Man's faint dark circles and asked: "Did you sleep well last night?"

"I went back to Nancheng last night." Qi Man knew that Li Yanzhi would definitely ask about the itinerary, and she confessed to herself: "I haven't slept yet."

Li Yan's eyebrows tightened: "Now go to sleep."

Qi Man pursed his lips: "I haven't taken a shower yet."

Seeing Li Yanzhi looking over, she put up her injured hand: "It's not convenient."

She asked: "Can you trouble Mr. Li?"

She hinted one after another, Li Yanzhi had deep eyes and a low voice: "Yes."

Qi Man smiled, returned to the room and took two sets of clothes. Before calling Li Yanzhi, he was pressed in.

The sound of water sounded, but it was not from the shower. It was more like a trickling river, lingering and ambiguous. Qi Man was hugged by her and sat on the sink with her back against the mirror. The feeling of red cool made her scalp numb, but Also more sensitive.

Li Yanzhi is buried in the mountains and rivers, on the side of the jungle, where the drizzle is endless. She is like a farmer, sowing seeds and reaping wet hands.

Qi Man was pressed for a short while, and Li Yanzhi hugged her to wash. She raised her hands, her body was graceful and exquisite, and if there was a lure of seemingly nothing, Li Yanzhi originally just wanted to be simple Give her a shower, who knows it took more than an hour.

The two came out again, Zhizhi squatted at the door, looking up at them curiously, Qi Man kicked it with his toes, and said in a low voice: "Go and play by yourself."

Zhizhi Meow ran away.

Li Yanzhi followed her into the room, Qi Man closed the curtains, the whole room was dark, impermeable, only the outline of the object, Qi Man walked towards Li Yanzhi in a bath towel, swaying like a willow. The fire in Li Yanzhi's heart was almost tossed in the bathroom just now, and now it is embarking on a new sign, she endured it without looking at Qi Man.

Qi Man swayed past her, walked to the other side of the bed, crawled into the quilt, a faint fragrance lingered around the two of them, like invisible firewood, began to crackle and burn.

She was held down as soon as she touched Li Yanzhi, and the person beside her muttered, "Sleep."

"Don't move."

Qi Man was stopped chuckling and asked, "Mr. Li, do you still have a headache?"

Li Yanzhi was a little inexplicably distracted by her, and replied: "It doesn't hurt anymore."

Qi Man raised his eyes, and the two of them lay on the quilt with pillows on their sides. This was her favorite posture before. Once she opened her eyes, she could see the person she liked, but now she felt that she was really hypocritical at that time, all day long. Immersed in the love that hurts the spring and sad autumn, dare not say anything, dare not sit down, she has never been an elegant woman, but pretending to be gentle for so many years, it is strangely uncomfortable.

Thinking of this, she said: "If you don't have a headache, it's sore hands?"

After she finished speaking, she dropped her hand from the quilt on Li Yanzhi's waist. Li Yanzhi frowned, "Don't make trouble, go to bed, aren't you tired?"

Qi Man said, "I'm not tired."

After she said she approached Li Yanzhi, she rubbed her head against her neck, and gently knocked her teeth on her collarbone: "Is President Li tired?"

"Yes, President Li is not young anymore."

Li Yanzhi was angrily laughed, and whispered: "Manman."

Qi Man said: "Total Li is tired—" She put her hand on Li Yanzhi, and slowly sat up, facing Li Yanzhi sideways, her fingers warm and wanton: "Then I will come."

Li Yanzhi was startled slightly: "What do you want to do?"

Qi Man smiled brightly, and the words were clear, like rain falling on a beaded plate, clanging, she said: "I want to make you cool."
