Enchanted (GL)

Chapter 13

Hearing Ji Xi promised quickly, Qiao Zhiyu glanced calmly, desperate to face and suffer, and said that he was not afraid.

It is better to be an investment perspective, and to be able to look at people. Qiao Zhiyu thinks that it is quite accurate to look at people, not to mention the inexperienced girl around him.

As soon as the red light passed, Qiao Zhiyu stepped on the accelerator, the tire ran over the wet ground, and the car continued to drive.

Ji Xi leaned on the seat and wrapped the suit jacket tightly around her body to conceal the cramps behind her wet body.

It’s uncomfortable, and there is nothing comfortable from head to toe. The only thing that makes Ji Xi feel better is probably this coat, which is warm, dry and smells nice. She saw Qiao Zhiyu pass through in the office today.

Qiao Zhiyu usually doesn’t talk while driving, and it just so happens that Ji Xi is not the one who talks too much.

Both of them remained silent all the way, the sound of rain rushing in their ears, and the whistle of cars coming from time to time.

The rain seemed to be addictive, but much smaller.

In the rain, the night scene on the north side was hazy, and the lights in the distance fainted like colorful ink on rice paper.

So, why did you follow the leader home for the night tonight? After Ji Xi calmed down, he was inexplicable. In order to accompany Qiao Qing, thinking about it this way, it’s much better.

There is still some distance from the destination.

Ji Xi sometimes looked out of the window and sometimes at the navigation. Finally, his boring gaze quietly fell on Qiao Zhiyu’s hand holding the steering wheel. A pair of fair hands, fingers, the back of the hand, and even the protruding joints of the wrist are all beautiful.

The employees of the company said in private that Joe was always a perfect woman. She was from a famous background and had the ability and self-cultivation. I don’t know how many men want to marry her home. The strange thing is that President Qiao doesn’t have any lace news, and Song Man, who is good at gossip, can’t even inquire about it.

Ji Xi also admired Qiao from the bottom of my heart. After all, Qiao always exists in the industry like a god. But Ji Xi didn’t think there was a truly perfect person, and he didn’t know enough about it.

Ji Xi sniffed.

Qiao Zhiyu, who has always advocated not to speak while driving, said: “There are tissues in the car.”

“Good.” Ji Xi’s nasal voice became stronger and stronger.

Caught a cold. Ji Xi’s nose is red, her head is very dizzy, and she is in a drowsy state. Leaning his head on the back of the chair, he staggered all the way.

When approaching the community, there was a pharmacy nearby. Qiao Zhiyu slowed down, then pulled over and stopped. After turning her head, she found that Ji Xi was dozing off again, with wet hair sticking to her cheeks and her face a little dry and pale.

Ji Xi’s skin is already white, pale, and fragile, making people feel malnourished.

Ji Xi didn’t know when the car stopped. She opened her eyes and realized that it hadn’t reached the community yet.

Qiao Zhiyu asked: “Have you a fever? Do you want to go to the hospital?”

Ji Xi was very sick and touched her forehead, her voice weak: “There should be no fever.”

Qiao Zhiyu has always been rigorous, “If you have it, you have it, if you don’t, you don’t.

There is a feeling of being severely criticized by the leader when reporting to work. Ji Xi lifted her lips and smiled reluctantly, “It’s okay, just wake up after sleeping.”

Ji Xi had a rough life, and he didn’t need to go to the hospital for minor illnesses or pains. Fever is not particularly serious, sometimes take some anti-fever medicine, sometimes just sleep.

Qiao Zhiyu put his hand on Ji Xi’s forehead and touched it for help. Between the women, this should have been a natural and pure movement, but when she touched the other’s forehead, Qiao Zhiyu felt a little unnatural in her heart. .

Especially with Ji Xi’s eyes.

Because Ji Xi looked at her eyes seriously.

If this girl likes herself, what she did tonight, is it too close? It’s like giving each other a chance in disguise…

After being touched by Qiao Zhi’s forehead, Ji Xi suddenly stiffened and became a little funny. I couldn’t help but think of that sister again, especially when Qiao Zhiyu took care of her.

After a brief contact, Qiao Zhiyu quickly withdrew his hand, “No fever.”

“Yeah.” Ji Xi was absent-minded.

Qiao Zhiyu noticed Ji Xi’s absent-mindedness, and felt that the contact just now was ambiguous. She looked at a pharmacy a dozen meters away and said, “There is a pharmacy, buy some cold medicine.”

Ji Xi hurriedly stopped Qiao Zhiyu, “Mr. Qiao, don’t bother, I will go by myself.”

Qiao Zhiyu said: “It’s like a chicken. I’ll go.”

Ji Xi still wanted to go by herself, but Qiao Zhiyu had already gotten out of the car.

After a while, Qiao Zhiyu brought a small white plastic bag back and handed it to Ji Xi.

“Thank you.” Ji Xi hooked her ears to the plastic bag, after thinking for a while, she asked, “How much is the medicine?”

Qiao Zhiyu blinked helplessly at Jixi, and understood the girl’s temperament a little bit. She didn’t say no this time. Instead, she glanced at the plastic bag in Jixi’s hand and said, “There is a small ticket inside.”

Ji Xi carefully pulled out the small ticket, remembering a double-digit price.

Qiao Zhiyu squinted his eyes and added: “Remember to add another ten dollars for running errands.”

Ji Xi was choked, and Joe really likes to tell cold jokes.

Qiao Zhiyu was smiling.

Ji Xi transferred the account.

Naturally, without adding the ten dollars, adding ten dollars would really make the leader run errands for himself, but the favors owed to her must be repaid. Ji Xi has a big head, and how he owes more and more love.

It was nearly ten o’clock when I returned to Qiao’s house.

Qiao Qing was still up, sitting in the living room watching TV. She used to wait until Qiao Zhiyu came home from get off work before going to bed, otherwise she couldn’t sleep at all.

After seeing Ji Xi, the little guy was really happy. He also said that he wanted to sleep with Ji Xi at night and asked Ji Xi to tell her stories. Ji Xi was afraid of passing a cold to Qiao Qing, so she had to coax her to wait for the next time.

Qiao Qing was dubious, somewhat disappointed.

“Let’s take a shower.” Qiao Zhiyu saw that Ji Xi was so wet, he turned and called Aunt Li to confess: “Aunt Li, help her prepare clothes and clean up the guest room.”

Aunt Li is crisp and neat: “Okay, let’s go. Teacher Ji, you come with me.”

Ji Xi said thank you again, and followed Aunt Li to the guest room on the first floor.

Aunt Liu prepared night gowns and toiletries for Ji Xi, and said, “Mr. Ji, put your clothes in the bathroom basket after you take a shower. I’ll help you wash them later.”

“No need, Auntie, I will wash it myself.” Ji Xi is embarrassed.

Aunt Li saw that she insisted on washing herself, and smiled: “Then I won’t bother you, you should rest early.”

In the bathroom, Ji Xi took off his wet clothes, the whole portrait was half lighter, and the hot shower poured down from the top of the hair to wash away the rainwater on his body. After squeezing some shower gel, a lot of foam was formed in a short while, all over my body.

After the shower, Ji Xi washed the dirty clothes. Summer clothes are easy to wash, not much, but thin. But she didn’t wash Qiao Zhiyu’s coat. She wants to wait for tomorrow to find a professional dry cleaner to wash it.

There is no balcony in the guest room. Ji Xi wanted to ask Aunt Li where to dry the clothes, but she couldn’t find Aunt Li. She might be resting. She only saw Qiao Zhiyu sitting in the living room.

“Mr. Joe.”

“What?” Qiao Zhiyu glanced at Ji Xi. She changed into a dressing gown and her hair was blown dry and fluffy. Probably the reason was not long after the shower, and his face was slightly ruddy.

Looking at Qiao Zhiyu, who was still very affectionate at night and was drinking alone, Ji Xi asked a down-to-earth question: “Where can I dry the clothes?”

I’m really afraid to trouble others. Usually, when guests stay at home overnight, the clothes are left for the nanny to wash. Qiao Zhiyu pointed his eyes and said, “There is a balcony over there.”

Ji Xi finished drying the clothes and turned back to the living room. Qiao Zhiyu is still drinking.

“Aren’t you sleeping?”

“Not sleepy.” Qiao Zhiyu likes to drink two glasses of wine before going to bed. It has been a habit for many years that drinking some wine is better than sleeping peacefully without drinking, and sleeps more comfortably.

He said he came to accompany Qiao Qing, but I couldn’t say a few words with Qiao Qing. She was worried that she was being followed tonight. She was scared alone, so she deliberately let herself come here. Ji Xi knew in her heart…

Qiao always looks alienated, but in fact he is a very warm person in his bones.

Seeing her drinking alone, Ji Xi walked up to Qiao Zhiyu and volunteered, “Mr. Qiao, I will have a drink with you.”

Qiao Zhiyu was silent at first, thinking of Ji Xi dozing off in the car, “Not sleepy?”

“Not sleepy.” Ji Xi told the truth. After taking a bath, she was much more sober.

Qiao Zhiyu asked again: “How about the amount of alcohol?”

Ji Xi is still a little confident in this regard: “It’s okay.”

Qiao Zhiyu handed Ji Xi a wine glass.

Ji Xi thought he was going to pour wine.

I don’t know that Qiao Zhiyu is like teasing a child, teasing her: “Take a glass of wine, and get a glass of hot water to drink.”

Ji Xi: “…”

“It’s not honest if you have a cold.” Qiao Zhiyu raised his hand and continued to drink the wine in the glass.

I usually look at a mature and elegant person, how can I look like a big child in private, and I like to have a bad taste from time to time. Ji Xi suddenly felt…cute.

I came back and stared at herself secretly. Qiao Zhiyu noticed that she was not ready to turn a blind eye this time. She caught Ji Xi and said, “Ask you something.”

“what’s up?”

Qiao Zhiyu put down the empty wine glass and stared at Ji Xi’s brown pupils. She didn’t like to circumvent everything, so she asked directly: “Why do you always stare at me?”

Sure enough, it was discovered by peeking.

Ji Xi was a little frustrated and simply explained truthfully, “Sorry, you reminded me of me…a friend. She also has a mole on the tip of her nose.”

Qiao Zhiyu: “Friend?”

Ji Xi: “Yeah.”

After thinking about it for half a second, Qiao Zhiyu raised his eyebrows and asked casually: “Ex-girlfriend?”
