Difficult office romance

Fortunately, Sun Kai didn't care, he was wearing dark clothes just like when he first met Cen Jing Keran.

But different from the first meeting, this time Sun Kai didn't wear any silver or gold accessories on his body, his hands were folded on his chest, his head was lowered and his brows were lowered, like someone who came out of the darkness.

Standing at the door of the private room, Cen Jing clenched his fist unconsciously, then let it go, and knocked on the door.

The moment he saw Cen Jing, Sun Kai's expression changed, he forcibly drove away the haze all over him, stood up, and he smiled and beckoned Cen Jing to sit down.

After Cen Jing sat down, he hurriedly ordered the waiter to serve the food.

Cen Jing once doubted whether this would be a grand banquet, but judging from Sun Kai's expression and movements, he should be over-worried.

In the next second, he withdrew his thought.

Watching Sun Kai take out a plastic box with a transparent body covered with gold, the bottle of wine in the plastic box made Cen Jing's stomach ache.

Cen Jing thought to himself, it's not a Hongmen banquet, it's better than a Hongmen banquet.

But on such an occasion, it seemed impossible for him not to take a sip.

Recalling the call in the afternoon, Cen Jing felt that he could not hold on to Sun Kai no matter what.

Tomorrow is Saturday, he must have a good sleep.

During the dinner, Sun Kai just thanked Cen Jing honestly, and consulted a few legal issues.

Cen Jing could feel that the gang built around Sun Youde was gradually planning a compliant retreat for himself.

This is a good thing, in the answer, Cen Jing is also guiding Sun Kai.

"Do the other two lawyers have work?" Sun Kai asked.

"Lawyer Yan checked for high blood lipids, and asked someone to customize a recipe. He has insisted on not eating out for almost a month." Cen Jing said.

"I wanted to thank him in person, but in this situation..." Sun Kai said, "It's better to take care of your health first."

He thought of another person, "Where's the little lawyer?"

He seemed to feel that calling him like this was impolite. In front of lawyers, Sun Kai always tried his best to restrain his gangster spirit. This is how people like him respect people like Cen Jing.

So Sun Kai waved his hands hastily, and said, "It's not a young lawyer, look at my mouth. It's that younger lawyer, I think his surname is Ke, right?"

Cen Jing smiled at him, signaling him not to care about these details.

"Yes, lawyer Ke Ranke." Cen Jing said.

"That's right, Lawyer Ke. He must have written the examination transcripts several times. I have read them too. The records are so detailed and even marked." Sun Kai said seriously, "If there is no mark, we will really read it. I don’t understand. Lawyer Ke is really hardworking, there are not many young people who are so careful and responsible. But later I saw that he wrote fewer examination notes, is he busy with other things?”

Cen Jing did not expect the client to be so satisfied with Ke Ran. When he heard Sun Kai praise Ke Ran, he couldn't deny that he felt a sense of pride in his heart.

It is not based on the relationship between partners, but another sense of pride and accomplishment that the master has finally watched the apprentice grow up.

In fact, Ke Ran can still do a good job. Regardless of his subjective emotions about the case, Ke Ran has always been careful in handling mechanical documents such as graded transcripts, and has already summed up a set of writing methods of his own.

He was a little annoyed. He had indeed magnified Ke Ran's shortcomings and denied Ke Ran too thoroughly.

However, Cen Jing does not regret suggesting that Ke Ran try other professional directions. Severe subjectivity is always a big problem, especially for criminal defense lawyers.

"Lawyer Cen?" Seeing that there was no answer for several minutes, Sun Kai was a little worried that he had forced Cen Jing too much.

Almost two drinks, he doesn't know how much the lawyer can drink.

"Oh, I'm fine." When Cen Jing came back to his senses, he found that Sun Kai was looking at him worriedly. He was indeed a little drunk. He hadn't touched liquor for a long time and always got drunk easily, but he could still keep his mind clear, " Ke Ran, he...he is indeed a little busy, and he has taken on a few new cases recently, young people, always want to work harder."

He still didn't have the heart to reveal the fact that Ke Ran left midway, at least in this irrelevant private conversation, he hoped to help Ke Ran maintain the professional image established in the client's mind.

"Oh, also pay attention to your body." Sun Kai didn't do what he thought.

Sun Kai didn't delay Cen Jing for a long time. The meal lasted for more than an hour and ended. Compared with other meals of the same nature, it can be called "quick".

Don't reveal your residential address when it's not necessary. Cen Jing rejected Sun Kai's invitation to take him home, and asked for a driver to drive him home.After taking a shower and lying on the bed, Cen Jing sighed, today is really long.

Alcohol invaded his mind, he couldn't work, but he couldn't rest well either.

At this time, Cen Jing seemed to have only one choice left to miss Ke Ran. For a long time before, after drinking, Ke Ran was always around him, either sober or equally drunk.

The sober Ke Ran will take care of him, and the drunk Ke Ran will tell him nonsense.

In any case, it would be better than now that he was lying on the big bed alone, not knowing what to do.

Why isn't Ke Ran here?

Cen Jing thought with a headache, why didn't Ke Ran agree to himself last time?

Am I not doing enough?

I still have to show you how uncalm and immature you are before you come back?

He propped himself up from the bed, took his mobile phone and sat on Ke Ran's favorite sofa, as if he could get closer to Ke Ran in this way.

I don't want to wait anymore, sit cross-legged on the sofa like Ke Ran, Cen Jing thought to himself.

Even if I force you, I want you to give me a good time.

Instead of letting me sink in such ambiguous self-paralysis and then be ruthlessly pulled out.

When Ke Ran received the call from Cen Jing, he had just finished taking a shower. On the way to get the phone on the sofa, he glanced at the clock on the wall. Yuan Yuan was the only one who would call him after nine o'clock.

So he walked over unhurriedly, and began to think about what Yuan Yuan wanted to say to himself.

Is it because Yuan Yuan and Lu Qingyu have conflicts in their relationship?

Or did Yuan Yuan meet a newcomer at work?

Or maybe Yuan Yuan finally found out with conscience and asked him, an empty-nest youth, to have a good weekend?

Neither.

Two words were clearly displayed on the caller ID: Cen Jing.

It has been a long time since Cen Jing took the initiative to call him, and vice versa.

Did you accidentally press it?

"Hey?"

Flipping the palms of his hands and wiping them on the pajamas, Ke Ran took a deep breath before answering the phone.

"Hey, Ke Ran. It's me."

Cen Jing's voice on the other end of the phone was low.

It seems that he didn't accidentally press the wrong key, listening to his heartbeat that kept accelerating, Ke Ran thought to himself.

Then no one spoke.

Ke Ran patiently waited for Cen Jing to explain the purpose of the call, but if he hadn't turned up the volume of the receiver to the maximum, Ke Ran would have thought he was dropped.

Cen Jing on the other end was a little flustered.

Just now he called Ke Ran impulsively, wanting to make Ke Ran explain the matter clearly, and to know whether Ke Ran would still like to be with him. Alcohol successfully magnified Cen Jing's desire for knowledge, and even broke the The "modesty" relationship that I have worked hard to maintain since the breakup.

Ke Ran's voice emptied his brain again.

Say, ask him, such a simple question.

But still can't say it.

"Cen Jing? Are you okay?" Ke Ran's voice was a little worried.

"Uh, it's okay." Cen Jing felt embarrassed again.

Ever since Ke Ran entered his life, it has been countless times that he has experienced this feeling that he has never experienced before.

"Have you been drinking?" Ke Ran had a keen sense.

Before Cen Jing could speak, he said, "What's wrong?"

Different from himself in the university who hang out with Yuan Yuan in campus bars and KTV all the year round, Ke Ran knows that Cen Jing, who has always been strict in self-discipline, is particularly prone to feeling uncomfortable after drinking.

"Is it a headache or an upset stomach?" Ke Ran's tone became more and more anxious.

After Ke Ran's reminder, Cen Jing felt the protest from his head and stomach at the same time.

"It's all a little..." He said helplessly.

Cen Jing felt that he was going to be taught a lesson by Ke Ran next.

Obviously I am older than Ke Ran, and after breaking up, it is really sweet and sad to be taught by Ke Ran...

Unexpectedly, Ke Ran only left the word "waiting" before hanging up the phone.

After being dazed for several minutes, Cen Jing just woke up like a dream, remembering the stubble on his chin that he vaguely noticed when he was taking a shower.

At that time, he thought that he would be lazy tomorrow because he would not get up early to go to work or go out to talk about things anyway, so he just let the stubble grow wildly this weekend.

Ke Ran drove here from home?

Is the rush hour of traffic jams long gone?

His thoughts became clear at this moment, and Cen Jing immediately staggered to the bathroom.

Ke Ran knew that Cen Jing was a person who didn't like to take medicine, so even if he knew that he would feel uncomfortable after drinking, Cen Jing's family would not prepare medicine

When Ke Ran was here, he only bought one or two emergency medicines, all because Ke Ran was sick, and the natural amount was not much, not to mention that Ke Ran didn't know if Cen Jing could find it.

Ke Ran himself is also a person who does not like to take medicine, so even if he is a person who has been troubled by stomach problems for a long time, he will not have stomach medicine at home.

You have to buy medicine first, Ke Ran reminded himself, so after hanging up the phone, he hurriedly changed into his coat, picked up his mobile phone, keys and wallet, and rushed out.

Before closing the door, he stopped suddenly, ran back to the bedroom without changing his shoes, and put another thing into his coat pocket.

On the way to drive, Ke Ran bought painkillers and gastric medicine at the 24-hour pharmacy on the side of the road, and continued to rush to Cen Jing's house without any stops.

At this time, he had already cast aside the awkwardness of being with Cen Jing during this period of time.

Speeding the car all the way to the maximum speed limit, Ke Ran almost missed a red light.

It's like rushing to... save lives?

No one reminded Ke Ran that headaches and stomachaches after drinking are usually fatal.
