    Chapter 40

    The days passed by so fast, and in the blink of an eye, it was already December 31st, and a year was about to pass.

    In the office, Xing Yun is still buried in his work, reviewing what he has done in the past year, and making plans for the new year.

    Suddenly, the office door opened and Xiao Zhao came in.

    When Xiao Zhao entered the door, his expression was nervous, and his tall body was slightly cramped. He said, "Boss, I, I want to take a temporary leave."

    Xing Yun didn't lift his head: "Okay, are you going to New Year's Eve?"

    Xiao Zhao said: "I've been talking with my girlfriend for so many years, and I plan on today..."

    Hearing this, Xing Yun finally stopped and looked up at Xiao Zhao.

    Xiao Zhao has been with Xing Yun for many years. Xing Yun vaguely remembers what he looked like when he first fell in love, but he didn't expect to ask for marriage now. Xing Yun hooked his lips and smiled: "Then why are you still grinding here, hurry up and prepare!"

    "Thank you boss!" Xiao Zhao Yixi went out in a hurry.

    After Xiao Zhao left, Xing Yun thought about it, and let everyone go to get off work early if they had nothing to do.

    As soon as the news was sent out, there was cheers outside the office again, and various voices of "Thank you boss" and "Good boss have a safe life" came one after another.

    Xing Yun couldn't help laughing when he heard it, Xindao and Xue Ying had been together for a long time, but his relationship with his employees became better. Xue Yingshuang would be happy if he knew that everyone could have an early holiday.

    But on second thought, Xue Ying Shuang Kai is not happy, what is he doing?

    Even so, Xing Yun finally called Xue Yingshuang.

    Xing Yun: "Today is New Year's Eve, I'm giving everyone a holiday."

    "Really? That's great." On the other end of the phone, Xue Yingshuang's voice was really happy, "Thank you boss, the migrant workers thank you."

    Xing Yun chuckled again and said, "You are also on vacation. I'll go back later and do math with you."

    "Ah," Xue Yingshuang said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Bai said just now that he wanted to go shopping, and I went out with him."

    Xing Yun was dull for a moment, and said flatly: "It's fine."

    In the mall, Xue Yingshuang accompanies Bai Qianyi shopping.

    Since Bai Qianyi also entered the education field, Bai Qianyi is not like when he first returned to the country, he ran out every three days. don't know if the last time went shopping was a few days ago, and had already suffocated him.

    Because of this, Xue Yingshuang couldn't beat Bai Qianyi, so he could only come out to carry the bag for Bai Qianyi.

    On New Year's Eve, there were a lot of people in the shopping mall. Bai Qianyi walked around to have a look. First, he went to the bookstore to choose a large bag of books, and then went to buy some fragrances that could relax the mind. Finally, he turned around and started to try it. clothes.

    Xue Yingshuang was carrying a large bag and a small bag, and his feet were already sore. Now that he had the opportunity to sit down, he sat down quickly.

    Of course, sore feet are one thing, and more importantly, he hasn't seen his book for three full hours! When he saw Bai Qianyi entered the fitting room, he quickly took out his vocabulary book and memorized it.

    "Shuangshuang, do you look good?"

    "Good-looking, it looks like a young grandma!"

    "What about this one?"

    "Young master said yes after reading it!"

    Xue Ying did not forget to praise Bai Qianyi's fitting results while endorsing it, and he did not forget both his studies and work.

    Suddenly, his eyes turned black, and after a while, his back suddenly turned black, and several clothes were thrown into his arms.

    Xue Yingshuang: "?"

    Looking up, I saw Bai Qianyi standing in front of him and said, "Don't be idle either, go and see for a few more pieces."

    Xue Yingshuang: "??"

    After Bai Qianyi finished speaking, he grabbed the book from Xue Ying's hands: "Go!"

    When the baby fell into the hands of others, Xue Yingshuang had no choice but to walk into the fitting room obediently.

    A minute later, Xue Yingshuang changed his clothes and walked out of the fitting room.

    Outside the fitting room, Bai Qianyi raised his feet gracefully. Seeing Xue Yingshuang, he frowned: "Old-fashioned, no, change."

    Xue Yingshuang: "Okay, I'll go back."

    Bai Qianyi: "No, it's for this."

    A dress was thrown over.

    Another minute, Bai Qianyi shook his head: "No, change it again."

    "This design is not good, change it."

    "..."

    "It doesn't suit your temperament, change."

    "..."

    "Not right, change it."

    "..."

    After going back and forth a few times, Xue Yingshuang no longer knew what he was wearing. When Bai Qianyi nodded at last, he was almost moved to tears.

    "Okay, it looks good." Bai Qianyi smiled with satisfaction.

    "Great." Xue Yingshuang couldn't help but smile.

    However, Bai Qianyi said in the next sentence: "That one is fine, let's try this next."

    Xue Yingshuang: "???"

    After an unknown amount of time, Xue Yingshuang finally tried on the last dress.

    With trembling hands, he changed back to his shirt, feeling as if he had worked three shifts in the factory, and his soul was tired.

    When leaving the fitting room, Bai Qianyi was checking out.

    Xue Yingshuang went up to help carry the bag, but found that Bai Qianyi even bought the clothes he tried on just now.

    Xue Yingshuang was puzzled. "Mr. Bai, this is..."

    Bai Qianyi said nothing: "I'm tired of seeing you always wearing a white shirt."

    Xue Yingshuang said hurriedly: "... Send me the invoice, and I will ask the boss to report the bill."

    Bai Qianyi glanced at him: "What to report? I can afford this amount of money. Anyway, I am also a lawyer in the United States."

    However, Xue Yingshuang was still brooding. In his eyes, it was a lot of money. Even if he signed a contract with Xing Yun, he and Bai Qianyi were not in that kind of relationship.

    Bai Qianyi knew what he was thinking, and said, "Lawyers make more money than you think. I can earn this amount of money in an hour."

    "Really?" Xue Yingshuang showed admiration.

    "Of course." Bai Qianyi began to recommend, "Speaking of which, lawyers have money and social status, and they are not unemployed at the age of thirty-five, and they don't need to wear plaid shirts. It's fantastic."

    Xue Yingshuang: "But you finally decided to be a young grandma."

    Bai Qianyi: "..."

    This kid is too sharp.

    After shopping for clothes, Xue Yingshuang thought that today's shopping was over. Unexpectedly, Bai Qianyi turned around and entered a barber shop.

    When he saw the barber shop, Xue Yingshuang automatically retreated to the back, ready to wait for Bai Qianyi.

    However, before he stepped out, Bai Qianyi said, "Where are you going?"

    Xue Yingshuang: "?"

    Bai Qianyi: "Your hairstyle is too rustic and must be changed."

    Bai Qian couldn't resist Xue Yingshuang's rejection, so he just pressed Xue Yingshuang to the seat, recruited the barber, and started the discussion on his own.

    Xue Yingshuang always cut his hair wherever it was cheap, and a stall on the side of the road could satisfy him for 5 yuan or 10 yuan. And when he was in the factory, in order to save money on renting the house, he even cut it himself.

    Therefore, he has never understood any hairstyles in his life. At this time, Bai Qianyi and the barber are discussing what he does not understand at all.

    Seeing his confused expression, Bai Qianyi shoved the confiscated book into his hand and said, "Don't worry about it, memorize your words."

    When Xue Yingshuang saw the word book, he was overjoyed, and immediately handed over his head and didn't care about anything.

    Two hours later, Bai Qianyi smiled with satisfaction: "It's good."

    However, before Xue Yingshuang could see what he had become, Bai Qianyi said to the barber again, "Give him another eyebrow."

    After everything was over, Xue Yingshuang was looking at the mirror.

    But before he saw it, Bai Qianyi stopped in front of him and said, "Don't look at it."

    Xue Yingshuang was at a loss: "Why?"

    Bai Qianyi smiled slyly: "Let Xing Yun see it first and give him a surprise."

    Xue Yingshuang was pulled out by Bai Qianyi without thinking. He couldn't see the mirror, and he didn't know what he had become, so he couldn't help but get nervous.

    Will he not be like Bai Qianyi?

    Would Xing Yun resign him in a fit of rage?

    The employees went on vacation early one after another, and only Xing Yun stayed in the company and didn't get off work until after midnight.

    As soon as he got home, he saw Bai Qianyi sitting in the living room reading a book with a happy face.

    Xing Yun asked, "What are you happy about?"

    Bai Qianyi turned to look at him, smiled, and said casually, "It's nothing, it's just that I think Xue Yingshuang is too crude, so I changed his look today."

    "In what style?"

    "People are in the kitchen, you can see for yourself."

    In the kitchen, Xue Yingshuang tried his best to keep calm.

    After returning home, Bai Qianyi asked him to change into new clothes, but he still wouldn't let him look in the mirror, so he still didn't know what he was like now.

    But he had convinced himself.

    The big deal is that Xing Yun resigned him, there is nothing to be afraid of.

    The kitchen door opened, and Xue Yingshuang said calmly, "You're back."

    Xing Yun didn't speak, Xue Yingshuang turned around and saw Xing Yun standing a few steps away from him.

    There was silence in the kitchen, except for the "gurgling" sound of cooking from the pot.

    Xue Yingshuang saw Xing Yun staring straight at him without saying a word.

    He tried to confirm his appearance from the reflection in Xing Yun's eyes, but as soon as his eyes met, Xing Yun looked away.

    "When can we have dinner?" Xing Yun asked.

    Xue Yingshuang was stunned for a moment, and then said, "It will be fine in a while."

    "Okay." Xing Yun said nothing, turned and left the kitchen.

    Looking at Xing Yun's back, Xue Yingshuang breathed a sigh of relief, and then laughed at himself.

    When leaving the kitchen, Xing Yun walked steadily. However, as soon as the kitchen door was closed, Xing Yun quickened his pace and quickly went to the master bedroom.

    He opened the door to the master bedroom, closed it quickly, and hurried into the bathroom.

    In the bathroom, Xing Yun threw his briefcase and put his hands on the washbasin, gasping for breath.

    He looked up at the mirror in front of him, and in the mirror, his face was flushed.

    He reached out and pressed lightly on his chest, his heart beating wildly.

    crazy.

    Really crazy.

    When Bai Qianyi talked about the transformation, he didn't have much thought in his mind, only thinking that Xue Yingshuang might have changed his clothes.

    However, in the kitchen, he saw Xue Yingshuang wearing a loose white sweater with a pair of light-colored jeans underneath. The clothes were completely different from the white shirts, suits and trousers of the past. When they were worn on Xue Yingshuang's body, they were full of youthful feeling.

    And the most amazing thing is more than that. In the past, Xue Yingshuang didn't have any hairstyles to speak of, but it could only be called refreshing. But today, Xue Yingshuang's hair was slightly permed, fluffy and light, and the bangs were cut sideways, revealing a fair forehead.

    Xue Yingshuang was born good-looking, but when he changed his hairstyle, his handsomeness was even more revealed.

    Xing Yun was stunned.

    He didn't know what he would do if he continued to watch it, and in the end he could only run away.

    Thinking back on Xue Yingshuang's appearance just now, Xing Yun's mood still can't be calmed down.

    Good-looking, really good-looking, how can he be so endearing... He laughed, his expression a little shy.

    However, when he saw himself in the mirror with such an expression, he couldn't laugh anymore.

    Laugh, laugh fart?

    Xue Yingshuang just changed his look, it's quite an ordinary thing, what is he doing?

    He also doesn't like Xue Yingshuang.

    At the end of the New Year's Eve that day, Bai Qianyi took Xue Yingshuang to watch the New Year's Eve program, but Xing Yun only casually said "Happy New Year" to them at about ten o'clock, and never came out of the study again.

    Xiao Zhao's marriage proposal was successful.

    On the first day of work in the new year, Xing Yun saw Xiao Zhao surrounded by everyone.

    Xing Yun also went up to say congratulations, but when he saw Xiao Zhao's shy and honest smile, he couldn't help thinking: Isn't it just a love affair?

    It is necessary to laugh like that, afraid that others will not know that you are in love?

    A few days later, at work, the company's publicist sneaked into Xing Yun's office.

    The publicist said to Xing Yun with a mysterious face: "Boss, we are going to shoot a video of blessings for Xiao Zhao."

    Xing Yun: "Oh, shoot."

    PR: "Isn't this just here for you to shoot?"

    Xing Yun: "Huh?"

    The publicist said with a smile: "It won't take you long, you can say some words of blessing, or whatever. I will cut the video out and surprise him when he gets married."

    Xing Yun immediately said: "I don't want it. Wouldn't it be more practical for me to wrap a red envelope for him in private?"

    The publicist said again: "Can the red envelope be the same as this one? You are the finale!"

    In the end, under the hardship of public relations, Xing Yun reluctantly agreed.

    "Then I'll shoot for you, you prepare."

    Watching the publicist put up the camera, Xing Yun was extremely reluctant.

    If there was any interview in the past, he always avoided it if he could, because he really didn't like talking to the camera, and it was not natural.

    Sure enough, after the filming officially started, he forgot his words, stammered, and always had problems. The publicist sighed, "Boss, take it easy."

    Xing Yun: "I'm relieved."

    PR: "Your expression looks like you're going to eat people! Why don't you prepare it again, and I'll record it for you later?"

    Xing Yunnu: "You go away, keep the things, I will handle it myself!"

    The public relations also thought about it, and finally left the machine and let Xing Yun record it himself.

    In the office, Xing Yun frowned as he wrote the manuscript.

    As he wrote, he muttered in his heart, isn't he just getting married? It's so troublesome that you can't go to work?

    If he gets married, he won't want any video as a gift, it's all fake, it's better that all the employees work 24 hours of overtime for him for free, which is a lot!

    ... Of course, Xue Yingshuang definitely disagreed.

    ...Wait, what does this have to do with Xue Yingshuang?

    Xing Yun chased Xue Yingshuang away from his mind and became more and more irritable.

    After a while, Xing Yun smashed the pen and finished writing the manuscript.

    He patiently lightly throated, pressed the button, and started recording.

    A minute later, Xing Yun cursed anxiously.

    no!

    Again!

    He scratched his head, and looked at the manuscript with a deep frown. At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and he said impatiently, "Come in directly!"

    The door opened, only to see Xue Yingshuang.

    Xue Ying held his lunch box in both hands and said, "I'm here to deliver food for you, did I bother you?"

    Xing Yun had been tossing for so long, and he was already hungry and couldn't be more hungry. When he saw Xue Yingshuang coming, it was like seeing a savior: "You are finally here."

    Xue Yingshuang said, "What are you busy with?"

    Xing Yun complained: "I made a film for Xiao Zhao. I have recorded it several times, but I couldn't record it well. Is there something wrong with me or the machine?"

    Xue Yingshuang: "I think there are both."

    Xing Yun: "Xue Yingshuang!"

    Xue Yingshuang: "Hey, you can eat it first and then record it. Today I prepared your favorite dishes for you."

    Xue Yingshuang was due to take the exam in a few days, so he went home after delivering the meal.

    After Xing Yun finished eating, he was ready to quickly settle the matter.

    However, when he walked to the camera, he realized that he had forgotten to stop shooting just now, so he recorded it for a long time.

    what the hell...

    Xing Yun picked up the camera and walked back to the desk.

    He stood there, clicked on the long video he just recorded, and decided to see what kind of virtue he was.

    At the beginning of the video, he was talking with a stinky face. The expression on his face was so serious that if he hadn't heard the voice, he would have thought he was cursing.

    Embarrassing, so embarrassing.

    Xing Yun couldn't stand it any longer, he reached out his hand to turn it off.

    Suddenly, there was a knock on the door in the video, and he remembered that Xue Yingshuang was also recorded.

    He became curious and wanted to see what Xue Yingshuang looked like in the camera.

    However, before Xue Yingshuang entered the picture, he was stunned for a moment.

    I saw myself in the video, and when I saw Xue Yingshuang coming, his expression changed instantly, and he actually laughed.

    He also listened to himself in the video complaining with Xue Yingshuang over there, complaining about things, but his expression was clearly happy, as if he was saying something great.

    Xue Yingshuang delivered the meal and left, but in the video he was still looking in the direction of the door and smiling, and he didn't stop for a long time.

    Seeing this, Xing Yun re-watched the scene of Xue Yingshuang entering the door again.

    This time, he saw it more clearly. In the video, he changed from irritability to joy in just an instant.

    He watched it over, over, over again.

    And in the picture, he also laughed again, again, and again.

    He remembered the smile that he was still laughing at Xiao Zhao the other day.

    But today, when he saw Xue Yingshuang's smile, he did not lose to Xiao Zhao at all.

    So joyful, excited, embarrassed, and happy.

    Why did he show such an expression just when he saw Xue Yingshuang coming?

    ...because he likes Xue Yingshuang.

    He admitted it.
