Chapter 21
Chapter 21
When it came time for the company tour, Jimo, who had learned from Xiaoliu that Yan Li would also participate, was not surprised by his appearance. What surprised him was that Lin Lei also came.
Afraid that he might misunderstand, Yan Li immediately explained: "Layla was arranged by my mother, and she didn't say hello to me beforehand."
It doesn't matter to Ji Mo, Yan Li is the one who is more embarrassed in this situation.
Lin Lei was wearing a well-styled sportswear with a ponytail. The simple dress outlined a youthful and beautiful figure, which attracted the attention of many people.Yan Li and Jimo also dressed casually, together with Xiao Liu, the four of them took the same bus.The seat allocation is that Yan Li and Jimo sit side by side, Lin Lei sits alone in the back row, and behind that is Xiao Liu.The rest of the senior management and department managers sat scattered.
People who don't know the situation are surprised to see Yan Li and Jimo sitting next to each other, obviously close.In their impression, Ji Mo was taciturn, mediocre, and unobtrusive at all. When did he hit on the president?
The puzzled people couldn't help but cast their eyes frequently, and they couldn't help but feel a little dazed: Hey, does Manager Ji look like this?Why does it seem to be different from the memory?
Ji Mo was not happy to listen to the tour guide's rambling introduction, so he put on headphones and listened to music.After a while, the road started to be congested, and I didn't know how long it would take to get to the hotel where I was staying.Zimmer is prone to drowsiness when he takes a vehicle, and he will indeed feel drowsy. At first, he closed his eyes and put his head on the back of the seat, but his neck was uncomfortable, and he tilted over and fell on Yan Li's shoulder after a while.
Yan Li turned his head slightly, looked at the people around him carefully, and didn't dare to move.
The bus finally started again, and moved with difficulty in the traffic flow. When it arrived at the destination, Yan Li's shoulders were already numb.
Ji Mo rubbed him twice embarrassedly and said, "Why don't you push me away?"
After being silent for a while, Yan Li lowered his eyelids, and said nonchalantly: "It's okay, you can rely on whatever you want."
Lin Lei sat behind them, even if she didn't pay special attention, their every move would naturally fall into her eyes, and she had a very subtle feeling in her heart.
This subtle feeling reached its peak after Lin Lei pulled Xiao Liu to ask Yan Li's room number.
"Mr. Yan lives at 0803."
"What about Mr. Ji?"
"I live in the same room as Mr. Yan." Xiao Liu looked at her and replied without concealment.
"...their relationship is so good, they even live together for travel." Lin Lei's tone was a little stiff.
Xiao Liu didn't intend to answer these words, he politely lifted the luggage for her: "Miss Lin, please let me lead you to your room."
Seeing Xiao Liu's strict tone, knowing that nothing useful could be found out, Lin Lei didn't say any more.When she was alone in the room, she sorted out her thoughts and told her best friend what she felt was wrong these days, but she just concealed Yan Li's real identity and replaced it with letters.
My best friend's WeChat quickly replied.
[It must be gay!Normally, there are two men who are so greasy and crooked!Girls don't do that either. 】
These words touched Lin Lei's suspicion deep in her heart, but after all, she hadn't confirmed it. She subconsciously retorted: [But A looks very manly, and he won't be gay at all. 】
【Please, do you think all gays are motherfuckers?Some just look at normal people, otherwise why are there so many same wives?From your description, I think eight or nine are close to ten! 】
Lin Lei couldn't calm down, and hurriedly ended the chat with her best friend.
If it is said that she has deep feelings for Yan Li, it is not true, but since her parents decided on this fiancé for her, and Yan Li is an excellent person in all aspects, she herself feels very satisfied.The fly in the ointment is that Yan Li seems to be a little cold towards her, she thinks it is because of his personality, and Yan Li's private life has always been very good, she has never thought about other aspects.It wasn't until she returned to China this time that she realized that her fiancé was getting very close to a man, and their relationship was unusual in every way.
Although the balance in her heart had tilted towards one end, Lin Lei still wanted to make sure again, maybe she was wrong.
The itinerary of the tour was relatively compact. After a short rest, a large group of people were once again driven to the scenic spot by several large cars.
This time the scenic spot is not far away, just in the urban area. It used to be the mansion of a certain number one scholar in the previous dynasty, and it was open to visit after being renovated.
As soon as Ji Mo stepped into this place called "Li's Courtyard", an indescribable feeling arose in his heart. The further he walked in, the stronger this feeling became, and he stopped abruptly.
Yan Li also stopped to look at him.
Ji Mo scratched his hair, his confused expression flashed past, and then he smiled indifferently: "It's nothing, the sun is a bit strong, let's go."
Yan Li noticed that there were fine beads of sweat on Jimo's forehead, as if he really felt very hot.He said, "Wait for a while." Back at the canteen at the gate, he bought 3 bottles of ice water, one for Jimo, and one for Lin Lei and Xiao Liu.
Xiao Liu was flattered, and Lin Lei's doubts eased a little bit, a glimmer of hope arose, maybe Ji Mo is a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside?It looks indifferent on the outside, but in fact it is gentle and considerate on the inside and will take care of others, so it is not surprising to show more concern for friends.
Ji Mo pressed the cold bottle to his face, and the strange feeling at that moment just now seemed to be an illusion, but now it has disappeared.Maybe it's really because of the hot weather, he thought to himself, but he didn't completely cast away his doubts.
After passing through a bamboo forest garden, you come to Zai Zhongtang, which was also the place where the owner of the Li family met private guests, had meals and rested. According to the introduction, the furnishings in this room are also preserved from that time. Really old stuff.
"It's amazing. Things from more than 900 years ago are so well preserved and seem to be usable." Lin Lei was speaking. Her thesis topic is related to traditional Chinese culture. She was very interested in seeing these ancient relics. I kept taking pictures, and the text introduction of each object was also very detailed.
When he saw those old but still delicate objects, Jimo felt weird again.
Yan Li paid attention to him all the time, of course he didn't let go of his fleeting stupefaction.
"how?"
Ji Mo shook his head: "It's a bit boring here, I'll go out first."
As soon as he left, Yan Li followed suit.
Lin Lei wanted to stay for a while, but she was concerned about Yan Li's affairs, so she followed her out.Seeing that he was the only one left, Xiao Liu followed immediately.
So Jimo and Yan Li walked side by side, with Lin Lei two or three steps behind, and Xiao Liu behind.
"Hey, your fiancée has been staring at us." Ji Mo gestured to Yan Li with his eyes.He was not an idiot, and he didn't notice other people's gazes. This slightly hostile, probing gaze made the back of his neck tingle.
"I will explain it to her as soon as possible." Yan Li replied with such a look.
Ji Mo doesn't care too much about this, but he just doesn't want to be stared at by a girl with anti-little three eyes, it really hurts.Just in front of him there was a toilet sign, and he immediately said, "I'll make it easier for you." Then he turned inside at a faster speed.
In fact, Ji Mo didn't intend to urinate, but just made an excuse to get rid of the string of tails. Now, as long as he turns out from the other side of the exit, he can avoid meeting them.
Another exit leads to the North Wing.For unknown reasons, this house is not open for viewing, the doors and windows are closed, and there is a tall plane tree outside the house, covering most of the courtyard with thick shade.
Ji Mo stepped into the yard with one foot, and suddenly felt the temperature drop several degrees, and a trace of cold breath wrapped around the skin exposed outside the clothes.
The hair on his back stood up, and he looked sideways at the two-story house.It seemed that in some dark corner, a certain gaze was staring at him.
If Lin Lei's gaze only brought him impatience, then this gaze was cold, sticky, and very unpleasant.
Ji Mo is not a timid person. On the contrary, he is very courageous, so big that sometimes he wants to die.
At this time, the noise of tourists seems to be coming from another world, very far away, and he is the only one here, and there is another "person" hiding in the dark to observe him, or something else.
Because of his own experience, Zimmer is not an atheist. He maintains a due awe of the unknown and a stronger curiosity than ordinary people.He looked around, and approached step by step in the direction that made him feel the most uncomfortable.
There is a narrow wooden staircase leading to the second floor. Before going up, Zimmer hesitated a little. The staircase was built in an unknown year. If the wood rotted, wouldn't it collapse under his weight?
But the stairs are very low, it won't be serious if you fall down, right?
Thinking about it this way, the last bit of hesitation was thrown away.The stairs were stronger than expected, and the collapse did not happen. Except for the creaking sound as if it was about to fall apart, he went to the second floor smoothly and found a sealed window.The screens of the pasted windows have long since rotted, and now only the bare window lattices remain.Ji Mo tried to look inside, but he couldn't see anything except some vague outlines.
When ordinary people reach this point, no matter how curious they are, they will retreat, but Ji Mo is obviously not in this category.He pushed in, and felt that he could still push, so he increased his strength.The wooden seal, which had become unreliable due to too long time, became looser under his efforts, and when he exerted force again, he couldn't support it and fell down. The wooden window made a dull "squeak" sound, and was finally caught. Slowly pushed away.
There seemed to be nothing in the house.
But it's just as if.
Ji Mo looked at it, turned over and entered neatly.
A gust of cold wind blew past his body, and his nose was filled with a musty smell that hadn't seen the sun for a long time, and he frowned.
"Sorry to bother you." He said to the thing that he didn't know if it existed, and looked around on his own.
The room is not big, there is a piano table in the middle, there is no piano on it, and there is a cabinet in the corner, other than that, there is nothing else, which is basically clear at a glance.
Zimmer opened the cabinet, but there was nothing.He walked around the piano case again, lay down to check the case, and suddenly a chubby thing appeared in front of him and rolled towards him.
If it was someone else, it would have been a surprise, but Ji Mo only showed a little surprise, and picked it up, and put it in his palm to see that it was a jade finger wrench.
After that, Ji Mo didn't stay any longer. When he climbed out of the window, he perfunctorily pressed back the dropped seal.Only 1 minute after going back the same way, he reappeared at the door of the bathroom, and ran into Yan Li who was about to come in to look for him.
Yan Li looked behind him and asked, "How did you come from there?"
"Oh, I went in the wrong direction." Ji Mo said lightly, stroking the jade wrench in his trouser pocket with his fingers.
Although Yan Li was a bit strange, he didn't ask any further questions and said, "I made it clear to Layla."
"say what?"
"It's about the two of us."
Zimmer: "..."
Zimmer: "You told her here?"
"Well, I happen to be free, so I'll tell you."
Ji Mo was silent.He will be very sympathetic to this girl, the other people's house is still in a decent place after breaking up, but where is this?Next to the bathroom!
"What about her?"
"Run away, I asked Xiao Liu to follow her."
Ji Mo looked at him strangely, and said for a while: "Your mother is afraid that you will be single for the rest of your life, so she arranged the marriage? Mother."
