Chapter 114 is updated, and there's a lot of pressure for monthly tickets. Can you accompany me and chat with me some more to help me relax?

  Sunday, early morning.

  Ning Qing held the file bag, furrowed her brow.

  She had gone over the contract countless times. Yesterday, she called Nian Hai and arranged to meet at his company this afternoon to discuss something.

  The project in Jin Tai Bay is her bargaining chip, she can't easily let Nian Hai get it.

  He must do something to help her get rid of the engagement with Guan Shaoyu and return her personal freedom. Otherwise, she would rather return the contract to Gu Qingheng than give up on Nian Hai for half a cent!

  "Knock knock", the sound of knocking on the door, Yanzi opened the door and came in.

  Ning Qing lifted her head and looked over, Yan Zi was in front of her, turned around: "Am I dressed appropriately?"

  Qing smiled and asked her: "Going on a date?"

  Yanzi stood in front of the dresser, looking at herself in the mirror, pouting: "It doesn't count, I and he haven't confirmed our relationship yet." As she spoke, she turned her head to look at Nian Qing, smiling sweetly: "Good sister, there's nothing to eat in the fridge, what about dinner tonight..."

  Ning Qing put down the file bag and answered the phone: "I'll go to the supermarket later, you can rest assured to go on a date."

  "I love you." Yanzu quickly pecked Qing's face and said, "Remember to buy two more pounds of pork ribs and 10 chicken wings."

  Nian Qing nodded and smiled in agreement.

  Yanzi sprayed perfume and carried her new handbag, going out.

  Ning Qing opened the refrigerator and found that there was hardly any food left inside. There was only one cup of seafood-flavored instant noodles, which was Yan Zi's favorite flavor, but she didn't really like it.

  Glanced over.

  Recite the list in your mind, remember what you want to buy, go back to the room, change out of pajamas and put on light clothes.

  When she's not working, she wears what she normally likes: long cowboy pants with irregular holes on the knees, a white T-shirt with cat patterns, her long hair tied up in a ponytail, and a pair of flat shoes.

  Very casual.

  But suitable for her 22-year-old age.

  Took the wallet and went out.

  Nian Qing went to a supermarket near her apartment. While shopping, she received a call on her mobile phone.

  She took it out and looked at it, it was Gu Qingheng's number. She hesitated for a moment, put on her headphones, and answered the call.

  The supermarket wasn't crowded, and suddenly Qing's voice softened as she said, "Hey."

  “……”

  I'm shopping at the supermarket.

  “……”

  "What's wrong?"

  “……”

  "En, we'll go to Nian Hai's company later."

  “……”

  Ning Qing, wearing headphones, nodded and murmured a few times as she put the cup noodles she wanted into the shopping cart. She then said to Gu Qingheng, "Alright, if nothing else, I'll hang up for now."

  "Don't hang up." Gu Qingheng stopped him, his voice firm and not to be refused: "I'm now drafting a plan that must be achieved within this year, the pressure is huge. Accompany me for a few more words, let me relieve some pressure."

  Nian Qing was at a loss for words, mistakenly picked up a pack of soft candy, and then put it back on the shelf: "I, I have nothing to say."

  "What are you buying?" Gu Qingheng asked in a relaxed tone.

  "...caramel." Qing said, licking her lips.

  On the phone, Gu Qingheng was laughing, his deep and magnetic voice was irresistible.

  She is too shy to speak clearly. She likes sweets, but few people know that. She has always been eager to mature and be independent, trying her best to get rid of all immature habits.

  "No wonder, every time I kiss you, your mouth is always sweet." Gu Qingheng's voice suddenly became low and husky, as if he was lost in thought.

  A slight numbness on my lips, I make no sound, glance at this passage, there are others shopping, inexplicably embarrassed.

  Gu Qingheng didn't want to end the call, and Nian Qing wasn't good at hanging up on him either. The atmosphere of their conversation was quite harmonious, so accompanying him in chat was no big deal. Actually, they didn't discuss anything substantial; she just told him what she had bought.

  He kept listening, his voice warm and gentle, with a hint of a smile.

  When checking out.

  "Wait a minute. You should buy some more vegetables and fruits, what you just bought is all instant frozen food with no nutritional value. The vitamins that women need, if taken unevenly, can lead to anemia, headaches, and also affect your mood."

  ...completely, is the serious tone of a university professor.

  She stared blankly. The things she bought, Gu Qingheng surprisingly remembered all of them, she thought that since she had said it and he had heard it, that was enough.

  I didn't expect there would be a summary.

  "Don't settle the bill yet, go to the vegetable section and buy the vegetables I mentioned." Gu Qing instructed calmly.

  Take a deep breath: "Gu Qingheng..."

  "Be good, it won't take up much of your time."

  Ning Qing didn't want to argue with him, so she withdrew the long queue for checkout and went to the vegetable area to buy several types of vegetables specified by Gu Qingheng. She also bought some fruit and purchased nutritional chicken essence and powder.

  Pay and settle the bill, go home.

  Close the door of the small apartment.

  Ning Qing put down two large bags of things and her conversation with Gu Qingheng continued. She had to remind him, "I'm back home."

  Gu Qingheng nodded: "Are you going to Nian Hai's company?"

  "Yes." Ning Qing took the things and brought them into the kitchen.

  "Want to change clothes?" Gu Qingheng asked.

  "No need, I've already changed." Ning Qing opens the refrigerator and puts away the food.

  "Hmm." Gu Qingheng didn't continue speaking, as he was also busy on his end.

  "Put down your chopsticks and wash your hands. I see you're still on the phone... Can't you hang up?"

  Gu Qingheng's tone was warm and elegant: "Don't worry about the phone bill, it's on me. You do what you need to do, no need to talk if you don't want to. I'm listening to the sounds from your end, it's very soothing."

  In the clear and quiet moment, there is nothing to say.

  The conversation has been going on continuously.

  Ning washed her face, put the file bag into her backpack, and took the key out the door.

  There is a bus station near the apartment.

  Ning Qing was waiting for the bus. During this time, she heard from her earphones the soft breathing of a man and the sound of fingers flipping through papers.

  Gu Qingheng should also be wearing headphones, each busy with their own affairs, but the sound and breath penetrate the long distance, closely connected.

  It was as if he were right next to her.

  Ning Qing raised her small hand to block out the sunlight in front of her, it was too hot, and her face was burning.

  The bus is coming.

  Ning Qing got on the bus, swiped her card, and since the bus was quite empty, she randomly found a window seat and sat down.

  The car had just started moving when Gu Qingheng heard a voice asking, "Is everyone on board?"

  "Mm." Nian Qing ate a piece of candy to distract herself, but the more she hinted, the more she cared. She heard the sound of the mouse from Gu Qingheng's side and thought of his appearance when working: white shirt, neat suit, elegant features, eyebrows...

  "I was thinking of you." Gu Qingheng said suddenly in a low voice.

  Qing's heart skipped a beat as she listened clearly. After a long while, she finally asked him, "Are you done yet?"

  "Not yet, there are still many things to do today." There was the sound of a lighter from Gu Qingheng's side.

  Nian Qing knew he was smoking. "Then I..."

  Gu Qingheng knew what Nian Qing was going to say: "Once we arrive at Nian Hai's company, I'll make a phone call."

  Nian Qing nodded, unable to refuse.

  The conversation was intermittent, Gu Qinghe would say a few words from time to time, and Jingqing would respond. They both had important things to attend to, but didn't affect each other.

  Very subtle.

  One hour.

  Nian Qing got off the bus and walked for 10 minutes before arriving at Nian Hai's company. She said to Gu Qing Heng, "I'm here."

  “……”

  "Goodbye."

  “……”

  End call.

  Ning Qing glanced at her phone's call duration, a full two hours and more.

  She had never talked with a man for such a long time before.

  ……

  Nian Hai's company.

  On Sunday, there were only a few security guards on duty. The entry was very smooth, and I took the elevator up to find Nian Hai.

  The female secretary worked overtime today and saw Nian Qing, smiled with a crooked mouth, and then knocked on the door of Nian Hai's office. After a few knocks, Nian Hai responded: "Come in."

  The female secretary carefully pushed open the door and smiled at Nian Qing, inviting her in: "Miss Nian, please."

  A faint smile, Qing enters quietly.

  This female secretary, she has seen her a few times, never looked at her straight in the eye, now calling her Second Miss, probably because of Hai'er's special instructions, she has a use for her, only then did she get a little respect.

  "Dad." Nian Qing called out to Nian Hai and sat down in the chair in front of his desk.

  Nian Hai slanted his eyes and glanced at Nian Qing a few times, saying: "You've lost weight. Come home more often in the future. Girls need to drink more soup to nourish their bodies."
