process

I met Chi Jinglan last year.

During the Golden Week in October, Lu Xingyuan took advantage of the National Day to go to the corner of a tourist city near Linchuan. He originally made an appointment with his good friend Dai Yi, but later his friend's girlfriend was coming, so he had to travel alone.

At that time, he didn't understand why a well-dressed and rich-looking person like Chi Jinglan would come to squeeze into this small and crowded hard-seat car.

It just so happened that the positions of the two people were close to each other.

When Chi Jinglan saw him, a trace of disbelief flashed across his face quickly, and after sitting down, he still stared at his side face thoughtfully, his eyes and expression were like looking at an old friend.

Lu Xingyuan had to ask him: "Sir, have we met?"

Chi Jinglan came back to his senses, shook his head, and never looked at him again.

Lu Xingyuan didn't pay attention any more, he tore a candy and threw it into his mouth, the corners of his eyes were crooked, the corners of his mouth curled up in satisfaction, it smelled like oranges.

He was enjoying watching a movie, when suddenly his right shoulder felt heavy, and it turned out that the gentleman who was staring at him just now had fallen asleep, and now his head was resting on his shoulder.

He found a few little girls in the seat in front of him looking at this side, their eyes glowing with excitement, he took off the earphones, and words like "□□shou", "cute", "dominant attack" and "love" came into his ears .

Lu Xingyuan tilted his head slightly, and saw more clearly that the man on his shoulder was frowning, he seemed to be sleeping very uncomfortable, there was a faint shadow under his eyes, and the exhausted look on his face was clearly visible, he hesitated for a while, and wanted to turn the man The hand that was pushed away was retracted again.

The man must have been really tired. It took half an hour before he woke up. He knew that he was resting on someone's shoulder. He apologized first and then thanked him. He just looked confused as if he was thinking about some important problem.

Lu Xingyuan moved his stiff arm slightly, took out a candy from his pocket, and stretched it out in front of him: "Didn't sleep well? Do you want to eat mints? Refreshing?"

Chi Jinglan wanted to refuse at first, but meeting his eyes, she accidentally accepted the little candy.

Lu Xingyuan smiled gently. His pupils were dark and wet, like some kind of warm and perfectly polished black gemstones, shining with a moist and soft light. The corners of his eyes originally drooped, but when he laughed, his eyes It looks curved and shiny, like many stars falling into a deep pool.

His long eyelashes make him look docile and harmless.

Chi Jinglan's expression could be described as tangled, frowning, staring at the candy in his hand, wondering what he was thinking.

The second meeting came quickly.

Lu Xingyuan took his camera and walked along the river. The wide and calm river flowed slowly. The weather was slightly cold. He couldn't help but sneezed because he didn't wear much.

When he picked up the camera to take pictures of the bridge across the river not far away, a tall figure broke into the camera, and Lu Xingyuan couldn't help pressing the shutter.

As he got closer, the man seemed to notice him too.They walked together naturally, walking slowly along the river.

Chi Jinglan seemed to be very familiar with Jiaoyu, so he introduced to him the famous scenic spots worth seeing and some less famous but interesting places.

Because of this, Lu Xingyuan knew that Chi Jinglan was also coming from Linchuan, because the job transfer had not been settled yet, and the time was urgent, so all he had left was a hard seat ticket for the train, and he often came to corner with his friends when he was a student, so he was no stranger .

When Lu Xingyuan heard him mentioning that friend, his tone was a little strange, but he didn't ask further.

The two passed by a bare peach grove, and the big stone next to it read Peach Blossom Embankment.Lu Xingyuan couldn't help feeling that he came at the wrong time, and if he waited until spring, it would be very beautiful.

Chi Jinglan smiled and said it was true.

The two went to dinner together, Lu Xingyuan carefully picked out all the peppers in the meal, Chi Jinglan asked, "You don't eat spicy food?"

Lu Xingyuan smiled: "I don't like spicy food, apart from the feeling of being burned, I can't taste other flavors."

Chi Jinglan nodded: "I had a friend before who liked spicy food, but he said that if there is no chili in the dish, it will have no taste at all."

"Different people always have different tastes." Lu Xingyuan said.

After eating, Lu Xingyuan took out a few candies from his pocket and spread them out in the palm of his hand: "Eat or not? You can choose the taste."

Chi Jinglan looked at the colorful wrapping paper, expressed his gratitude, and smiled again: "So you bring candy with you?"

Lu Xingyuan ate a grapefruit-flavored one by himself, his brows and eyes curved: "I'm used to it. Isn't it strange that a big man looks like a little girl?"

Chi Jinglan smiled slightly: "No. As long as you like it."

Later, when the two went back, they found that they lived in the same hotel, but on different floors. They were both a little surprised and smiled at each other, and the affection in their eyes became even stronger. Lu Xingyuan returned his coat to him, and then made an appointment at seven o'clock the next day Meet in the hotel lobby.

The next two days were fulfilling and perfect. Chi Jinglan could be regarded as a half-time companion. He searched for interesting places and delicious food in the streets and alleys. The itinerary was full and he avoided the crowds. Lu Xingyuan felt that it was worthwhile This line.

Three days later, when Lu Xingyuan was going back to Linchuan, he found that even Chi Jinglan's phone number was not stored in his phone, but he didn't deliberately care about such a stranger.

However, the next plot is a bit bloody.

When I go to work after the National Day, my colleagues are spreading rumors about the general manager who was transferred back to the headquarters from the branch, saying how capable and handsome he is. The male staff's tone is sour, but the female staff seems to have been beaten up , everyone was extremely excited.

Amidst all the noise, the new general manager finally appeared.

For a while, a round of whispering started again. In this low-key bustle, Lu Xingyuan was in a slightly complicated mood.

Chi Jinglan was dressed in a suit, clean and tidy, with a gentle and appropriate smile on his face. He had the majesty of a leader without being overly serious.Surrounded by a group of people, they seemed to stand out from the crowd, and when they glanced, it was obvious that they saw Lu Xingyuan, and there was neither a trace of surprise nor obvious expression on their faces, and they passed by calmly.

This is probably a boss who distinguishes between public and private.

Chi Jinglan didn't show that he knew Lu Xingyuan at all. After a week like this, when he got off work one day, he was stopped by a car that suddenly appeared on the side of the road.

The car window came down slowly, and it was General Manager Chi sitting inside.

Chi Jinglan smiled gently, and said in a familiar tone, "Long time no see. Do you have time to have dinner together?"

"General manager?" Lu Xingyuan hesitated, he looked around, "What's the matter?"

"What are you looking at? Are you afraid that I will abduct you?" Chi Jinglan's mood was obvious.

Lu Xingyuan smiled forcedly: "You are the boss, and I am the subordinate, so we always have to avoid suspicion."

Chi Jinglan laughed out loud: "It's all off work now, why are you so particular about it. Come up quickly, and treat you to dinner."

Lu Xingyuan looked back and forth to see if no one noticed this, then he opened the car door and sat in the co-pilot's seat.

Chi Jinglan smiled.

Later, the two went to have dinner together. Chi Jinglan was very experienced, and his conversation and demeanor returned to the cordial manner. Not only did he not make Lu Xingyuan feel uncomfortable, but he completely threw away the initial estrangement. .

Chi Jinglan expressed that he was very surprised that the two of them were subordinates. He had too many things to do this week, so he didn't say hello to Lu Xingyuan until today, and apologized sincerely while talking.

Lu Xingyuan felt that it wasn't serious enough, so he was a little flattered and said repeatedly that he wasn't unhappy about it.

Chi Jinglan was really happy, drank two more glasses of wine, and for some reason stared into Lu Xingyuan's eyes in a daze.

Lu Xingyuan was stared at embarrassingly, and reminded him: "General Manager Chi?"

Only then did Chi Jinglan come back to his senses, and then smiled as if it wasn't him just now: "We are not working now, we are all friends, so don't call me the general manager, and just call me by my name in private from now on."

Lu Xingyuan felt that he wasn't putting on airs, and he shouldn't be hypocritical, so he said generously, "Okay then, I'll call you Jing Lan from now on?"

Chi Jinglan nodded with a smile: "Just call it like this."

Chi Jinglan couldn't drive after drinking, so he called his assistant to come over.

He just hung up the phone when Lu Xingyuan's cell phone rang, and it turned out to be an unknown number.

"It's mine." Chi Jinglan said.

Lu Xingyuan looked at him strangely.

"This is my private number, which has nothing to do with work. We can easily contact each other."

Lu Xingyuan thought it was normal, so he saved it, and he didn't think there was anything strange about Chi Jinglan knowing his mobile phone number.

Chi Jinglan's assistant, Tang Li, came, and when he saw Lu Xingyuan, he just nodded politely and distantly.

Lu Xingyuan learned from the gossip of colleagues in the company that Assistant Tang was an elite talent recruited by Chi Jinglan when he was in the branch. A posture that is inaccessible to strangers.

Now, at a cursory glance, this is the case.

Probably realizing that Lu Xingyuan was looking at him, Tang Li glanced at him indifferently, then looked away.

Since that dinner, Chi Jinglan and Lu Xingyuan's daily relationship has been like that of ordinary friends. When they have time, they make an appointment to have dinner together, but under Lu Xingyuan's insistence, they often have to walk around the corner of the company's gate. Get in Chi Jinglan's car.

Although Chi Jinglan didn't think so, he let him go.

Knowing that Lu Xingyuan likes sweets, Chi Jinglan would often bring him desserts, which made him feel embarrassed but unable to resist the temptation, and he liked Chi Jinglan even more.

So the two became close friends at an extremely fast speed.
