    Chapter 20 You Are Not a Devil

    Not long after we were seated, Xin Hezi also arrived with several senior executives of the company. The box reserved by the secretary was large enough to seat twenty people, and there were only ten of us. The table was so huge that everyone sat very loosely.

    After all, Cai Congcong is a seasoned old manager. He is very good at finding topics at the wine table, touting each other with several high-level executives, and talking about news and gossip. Thanks to him, the whole meal was never cold. Occasionally, the topic will turn to me, asking my opinions and opinions, and I will give perfunctory answers such as "yes", "um", "very good" in an attitude of not being interested and not wanting to participate. The more times, I may also feel that my mood is not high, so I no longer come to me.

    Lu Sui has a clear goal, specializing in Xin Hezi. At the beginning, he also sipped "Mr. Xin", and in the end, he simply called "Sister", and Zheng Jieyuan directly had several uncles for one meal.

    Just like Zhou Jiyu, I can really appreciate this kind of person, as long as they don't make a fool of themselves. Ambition is written on the face, engraved in the bones, only do what is beneficial to yourself, and never waste time on people who are not worthy. It is also a pleasure to watch them mediocre and struggling to climb up.

    Ji Chenfeng didn't know whether he was still immersed in the reminiscence of his ex or was afraid of life, except that I greeted everyone when I briefly introduced him to everyone at the beginning, and he didn't have any sense of existence after that. He didn't take the initiative to join the topic, and he didn't look like he was listening to other people's speech. He focused on the food in front of him from beginning to end, just like... really just came to eat.

    I was sitting on Ji Chenfeng's left, and Han Ru was sitting on his right. When I looked up, I saw that Han Ru was also looking at Ji Chenfeng. Her eyes were fiery and straightforward, as if the person in front of her was not a man, but a plump steak. She sharpened her knife and her saliva was dripping.

    I almost forgot, Ji Chenfeng is very popular. Although he was a little pitiful when he was a child, he is indeed a heartthrob now.

    Colleagues, customers, viewers who watched his videos, and passers-by like Han Ru are all too easily attracted by his contradictory specialties. Even the ear ailments that excluded him as a child were no longer a problem.

    He has a good impression of me, but it is because I helped him. I borrowed 300,000 yuan to him when he was in the most difficult time, but what if someone could help him better than me? What if that Zhuma ex came back? Ji Chenfeng said that the other party never contacted him after he went abroad, not that they never contacted him again. It means that after so many years, he is still waiting for the other party to contact him.

    When I thought that I was just a candidate, a substitute for a man who didn't even know what he looked like, I felt itchy teeth. No love, this is a challenge to my dignity.

    He will never give Ji Chenfeng to anyone. He is my prey. Whether a man or a woman, if he wants to get his hands on him, he must be prepared to be torn to shreds by me.

    Perhaps feeling my hostility, Han Ru suddenly looked at me, and after meeting my eyes, she was stunned, and hurriedly said, "Ah...I, I think this handsome guy is in good condition in all aspects. I'm wondering if it's your family's contract model, nothing else."

    "He's a friend of mine, he's a veterinarian, and he's never been in modeling." I said slowly.

    Han Ru bit her lip, looking unwilling, and asked Ji Chenfeng to the side, "Aren't you interested in taking a part-time job? You are so suitable for wearing my clothes, more suitable than all the previous models. You are ...the person in my head."

    The veins on my forehead twitched twice, I held the goblet filled with soda water tightly, restraining myself from smashing the glass in front of the crowd.

    "Sorry, I don't think about it for the time being." Fortunately, Ji Chenfeng was not bewitched at all, his expression remained unchanged, and he refused without thinking.

    Han Ru sighed in disappointment: "That's a pity."

    This conversation only happened in a small corner of the dining table and did not attract the attention of other people. After that, Han Ru never spoke to Ji Chenfeng again.

    By eight o'clock, the meal had been used up, and after three rounds of wine, Cai Congcong was flushed with drunkenness, and several senior executives also appeared to be drunk.

    I didn't drink a glass on the grounds of quitting drinking, but Ji Chenfeng was forced to drink two glasses of red wine. Since I was still concerned about his obsession with his ex, I just watched from the sidelines and did not stop him. But he didn't resist when he drank it, it should be within his limit.

    By the time Xin Hezi announced that today was the end of the day, most of the people at the table had been slumped. The hotel specially sent someone to bring a few high-level drunks who were too drunk to walk to the door, and asked a driver to take them back one by one.

    When the wind outside the door blew, Xinhezijiu came up, staggered under his feet, and almost didn't fall. Lu Sui took a quick stride and let the other party lean on him.

    "Sister Xin, are you alright?"

    "Oh, it's alright." Although Xin Hezi had experienced wind and frost, and his son was older than Lu Sui, he still couldn't escape the diligence of this little fresh meat, and his face that was originally slightly red suddenly became redder.

    Afterwards, Lu Sui directly got into Xin Hezi's car on the grounds of stopping by the road.

    Looking at the black commercial vehicle that was passing away, Cai Congcong sneered: "Stop on the way..."

    Whether it's on the way or not, it's a matter of opinion, just hope that Zheng Jieyuan doesn't have more than one father in one meal.

    Before getting on the train, Ji Chenfeng asked me to take him to the nearest subway station. Looking at his slightly hazy eyes, I didn't listen to him and drove straight to his house.

    The more you go to the suburbs, the fewer street lights, and the quieter you get. I played the music, and looked at Ji Chenfeng again while waiting for the red light, and found that he was staring blankly at the scenery outside the window, his eyelids drooping a little more than usual. How to see how it looks like... drunk.

    I tried to talk to him: "Doctor Ji, don't you really want to be a model? Like Lu Sui. He takes a set of photos, which may be your salary for a few months."

    He was still looking out the window, but quickly responded to my words.

    "Then who will... treat the little animals?"

    "Without you, there are others. If you don't become a veterinarian, is there no one else to be a veterinarian?"

    "That's different. I'll be fine with them..." He sighed on the car window, which quickly formed a small patch of white fog due to the temperature difference, "I'm very good at taking care of small animals." He stretched out With the index finger, he drew a simple cat head on the white mist.

    Hearing this, I have already determined that he is really drunk.

    This guy... can't drink, why drink it without changing his face, relying on others not to find him drunk?

    "If you make more money, you can have money for a second cochlear implant, and you can move from where you are and live in a house like mine, okay?"

    Be rich, isn't it? I admire clear ambitions, but at the same time, I hate poor people who pretend to be lofty.

    Ji Chenfeng didn't answer for a long time, just looked at the cat's head in a trance. I thought he was so drunk that his mind stopped and he couldn't hear my voice, so he didn't continue the conversation. His eyes fell back to the front, waiting for the red light to pass.

    "Make more money, good, but I've promised..." He lay back in his seat, continuing the conversation in the dark, "My father had an accident before I was born and was paralyzed afterwards. He's been in bed since I was conscious. My mother worked to support the family until my father died, and I was by his side most of the time, cooking, scrubbing, chatting with him..."

    There was a vague smile in his tone: "The original ideal was to be a doctor. I wanted to be a human doctor who could avoid tragedies like me and him. At that time, I was only six or seven years old, and I didn't even know a few words. They all thought I was whimsical, but he never laughed at me. He always said that I took good care of him and would definitely be a good doctor in the future."

    "But then... I still didn't take good care of him."

    On the empty road, the signal light has jumped from red to green, but I still stopped in place and had no intention of driving.

    "So, being a veterinarian, not only because I like animals more than humans, but also because of my commitment to my father. I promised him... to be a good doctor."

    When he said the last sentence, Ji Chenfeng's voice gradually became lower, and after a while, there was even breathing sound next to him, as if he was talking and fell asleep.

    I have only one car, and it doesn't matter if it is parked all the time.

    Lowering the car window a finger-width slit, I took out the e-cigarette and vomited.

    what a great dream...

    Thinking like this, I couldn't help laughing, and the cool smoke touched the eyeballs, causing a thin sting. I blinked, but couldn't get the sting to go away.

    Half an hour later, I stopped at the same place where the window was smashed last time. I patted Ji Chenfeng on the face and called him up.

    He opened his eyes in a daze, looked around, and found that he had arrived home.

    "Goodbye..." After thanking me, he pushed open the car door and got out of the car unsteadily.

    He looked even more drunk than when he first left the hotel. Climbing the damn ladder like this, it's easy to fall. If he breaks his neck for this, it would be in my mind.

    As if he heard my heart, Ji Chenfeng suddenly stumbled after walking a few steps, leaning on the guardrail and sitting on the ground.

    "Tsk."

    Turn off the engine, get out of the car, and I run in his direction. The night was as cold as water, exhaling white air, and after confirming that he did not fall seriously, I took his arm and dragged him from the ground.

    If he falls to his death like this, then I can't escape the responsibility. If Yan Shanhua goes crazy and thinks that I killed her precious son, and reports me to Sang Zhengbai, the charge of waiting for me may turn into "intentional murder". Just to be on the safe side, I'd better send him home.

    "Why haven't you left yet?" Ji Chenfeng turned his head to see me, and suddenly laughed.

    Knowing that he doesn't have any supernormal abilities, it's impossible to know what I'm thinking, but I'm still annoyed by his smile.

    "Be careful not to talk under your feet." He didn't think he would remember all the words he said tonight, and his tone was also selectively worse.

    Fortunately, although he was drunk, Ji Chenfeng was still obedient. After that, he stared at his feet and walked, and really didn't speak any more.

    After I finally got him to the door, I knocked on the iron door vigorously, just wanting Yan Shanhua to come out and take this heavy burden.

    "Can I speak?" Ji Chenfeng asked.

    "Didn't you already say it?" I knocked on the door a few more times, not paying much attention to the tunnel.

    "I like your voice, but I don't like it because it's nice. When I first saw you, I thought... I went to heaven." Ji Chenfeng spoke in an unusually dragging tone after being drunk. People can't figure it out, "So, you're not a devil."

    "Huh?" I turned my head to face him, frowning suspiciously.

    "You are... my angel." As he spoke, he gently covered my lips and gave me a kiss with a hint of alcohol.

    The dilapidated blue iron door slowly opened, and Yan Shanhua came to open the door wearing clothes. In this way, he faced the shocking scene between his own son and his adopted son without any preparation.
