Chapter 64
After Huai Jing left IO and became the chairman of the Huai Group, he rarely came to IO, unless he came to find Xu Xingxing.
So when Xu Xingxing and Yan Jialin came back from the scene and rushed to the elevator in the underground parking lot, she was slightly surprised when they saw Huai Jing who was reading documents and Leo standing beside him.
Huaijing seemed to sense when she came in. He looked up from the document and saw Xu Xingxing. A smile flashed in his straight and serious eyes, and then he pursed his lips.
"Mr. Huai is good." Yan Jialin greeted each other with respect in her voice.
"Are you on the scene?" Huai Jing glanced at Xu Xingxing and asked in a deep voice.
Xu Xingxing wore a white shirt, black wide-leg pants and a pair of nude high heels. She looked energetic, but the low ponytail tied at the back and the hair on the cheeks made her look beautiful and gentle.
This is what she looks like when she is working. She is serious and responsible, showing her love for her profession and a sense of belonging, which makes her shine.
"Well." Xu Xingxing responded.
Huaijing should have come to IO for a meeting. He was wearing a dark suit and neatly tied tie.
She picked this tie for him herself in the morning.
"What time will I get off work tonight, I'll come and pick you up." Huaijing looked down at the document in her hand, pressed her finger to the next page, and chatted with Xu Xing leisurely.
When asked about working hours, Xu Xingxing blushed, raised his eyes and glanced at Yan Jialin next to him, and said softly, "I'm a little busy today, it might be late."
The fingers paused slightly, the corners of Huaijing's lips were slightly pressed, and the tone was light: "It's okay, I'll also work overtime to wait for you."
While we were talking, the elevator door opened, and the floor of the office of the translation department arrived. After Yan Jialin and Huaijing said their goodbyes, they got up and got off the elevator. Xu Xingxing also quickly followed. Before getting off the elevator, her ponytail was lightly grabbed. Xu Xingxing turned back, the man looked up from the document, closed the document in his hand, and his eyebrows were gentle.
"work hard."
Xu Xingxing's heart became hot, her round eyes were black and clear, her lips pursed into a smile, and after nodding at Huaijing, she trotted to catch up with Yan Jialin.
Seeing her happy look, Huaijing opened the file, the elevator doors closed, and Huaijing's voice returned to a cold and indifferent tone.
"Work overtime with me tonight."
Leo: "..."
The summer collaboration between IO and TIE has begun to be prepared. After Yan Jialin came back from a business trip, Xu Xingxing has been accompanying her on the scene. Not only on-site, but also in the office, she is working overtime almost every day this week.
This Friday, Xu Xingxing will prepare the materials that will be required to appear on the scene next week. She was afraid that she would work overtime for too long today, and Huaijing would wait for her too late, and she would be too busy to touch the ground after getting off the elevator.
Although she didn't have time to drink water, she still had a lot of get off work to do when she got off work. She looked at the time and was about to call Huaijing. When she looked up, Yan Jialin came over.
Yan Jialin seldom came to see her. She usually stood in front of the office door and glanced at her. She raised her eyes and went to her office automatically to listen to the arrangement.
Yan Jialin walked to her side, her expression still cold, glanced at the table on her computer, and said, "You should get off work first."
With a lot of things at hand, Xu Xingxing did not expect that Yan Jialin came to her to get her off work.
She gave an "ah", looked at the documents on the table, and said, "There is still a lot to be done."
"These are not in a hurry." Yan Jialin said, took out a few documents, and instructed: "You can take time to deal with these books on the weekend."
Xu Xingxing looked at Yan Jialin's face. The woman had delicate makeup and diamond earrings. The style was low-key and the workmanship was exquisite.
At this point, Xu Xingxing remembered the conversation that took place on the elevator today.
She's been off work late these days, so Huaijing shouldn't have come to IO today because of this.
Xu Xingxing was a little helpless. She pursed her lips and blushed: "You don't have to worry about your pregnancy... Boss, this is my job, and I will finish it as soon as possible before I get off work."
"I didn't care about him." Yan Jialin looked at Xu Xingxing, her expression was light, and her double eyelids became a line because of the retraction of the eyelids. "If he doesn't get off work, the people around him don't even think about getting off work."
people around me? who? Sophia? Isn't she on a business trip? Could that be... Leo?
Xu Xingxing clocked in and got off work on time. She still remembered the last time she went to get off work on time after working overtime in darkness. At that time, she and Huaijing had just been together, he just mentioned her, and she finally got rid of Li Miaoxue's suppression by relying on her own efforts.
This time, Huai Jing didn't mention anything, and directly put pressure on Yan Jialin to let her go off work on time.
Although she got off work on time, Xu Xingxing was still thinking about her work. She would sort out the documents Yan Jialin asked her to prepare on the weekend.
Huaijing is still measured, otherwise she will work overtime for several days this week, and he will not let Yan Jialin let her leave work early on the last day.
Back home, Xu Xingxing made dinner and the two of them ate together. Xu Xingxing asked Huaijing while drinking the fish soup, "I feel like Sister Jialin likes Leo."
Leo is only 29 years old this year, and Yan Jialin is 35 years old this year, which seems to be six years older than him.
Yan Jialin and Sophia are good friends, and Leo and Sophia are direct colleagues, so they might be together.
Huaijing looked at Xu Xingxing behind the fish soup, looked up at her and asked, "Then do you think I like you?"
Xu Xingxing put the soup bowl down and met his gaze. The starlight in her eyes jumped, like a small goldfish slipping out of her hand, rolling on the water, glowing with a layer of golden light.
"I don't like it." Xu Xingxing said with a smile.
The man didn't get angry when he heard this answer. The end of his eyes was slightly raised. Under the thick eyelashes, the light brown eyes were as bright as gems.
"Then you don't feel right." Huaijing said.
Xu Xingxing laughed.
The dinner with Chen Wanwan's family on Saturday was set at Xiangzhuxuan according to the standard required by Chen Wanwan.
April in Xiangzhuxuan is the most beautiful time of the year. Huaijing and He Yu often ate here, and Xiang Zhuxuan even prepared a special room for the two of them.
Xiangzhuxuan was built halfway up the mountain, and Huaijing's room was the one with the best view.
At the wooden railings outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking up is a clean and clear blue sky, overlooking the mist-shrouded green hills, and looking down at the endless green fields.
The reason why the view here is good is also because there is a short waterfall next to the room.
Because it was the home court of the two of them, Xu Xingxing and Huaijing arrived first. They had just made tea on the low table when Chen Wanwan arrived.
She arrived first by herself. Xu Xingxing glanced behind her and asked, "Where are Kangkang and Lao Zhan?"
They had an appointment for dinner, and it was only after five o'clock, and Chen Wanwan came by herself. She sat cross-legged across from them, greeted Huaijing, and explained, "Kangkang went out to sketch today, and it took some time. Lao Zhan is still waiting there. I'll come first."
Since signing up with Bai Zhu, Kangkang has been learning painting with Bai Zhu without missing a single class. He does have some talent. Looking at Chen Wanwan's new paintings in the circle of friends, he has made great progress.
Of course, just relying on talent is not enough, you also need the guidance of a good teacher.
In terms of her son's learning to paint, Chen Wanwan is simply grateful to Bai Zhu.
Speaking of which, she was with Huaijing, and he also helped her. He likes Xu Xingxing, but fulfills Xu Xingxing, Bai Zhu is a gentleman.
After she came back from Huaicheng, she went to Wuyin once and gave wedding candy to Huangfu Yiduo and Du Yizhe. She also brought some for Bai Zhu, and wanted to say thank you by the way. But only Zhuo Nian was in Weiquan, and Zhuo Nian told her that Bai Zhu went to Licheng.
At that time, Xu Xingxing went to Licheng with Baizhu, and wanted to help Yan'an one-on-one. After she's done with her work, it's time to go to Licheng to see Yan'an when she finds time.
"Are you learning from Mr. Bai?" When Xu Xingxing and Chen Wanwan deliberately didn't mention Baizhu's name, Huaijing's brows and eyes drooped, and her knuckle fingers rubbed the purple sand pot and asked lightly.
"Ah?" Chen Wanwan was stunned for a moment, looked up at him, then looked at Xu Xingxing next to her, laughed dryly and said, "Yes, I paid a year's tuition at that time."
Xu Xingxing glanced at Huai Jing, and saw that he slowly refilled her a cup of tea, no emotion could be seen in his light brown eyes, and finally he boasted indiscriminately.
"Mr. Bai is very good at painting."
Hearing his praise, Chen Wanwan frowned. Bai Zhu likes Xu Xingxing, and all three people here know that. So the two of them deliberately didn't mention it, but he didn't expect it to be mentioned first. Not only that, but also boasted such a sentence.
Chen Wanwan felt that her judgment on Huai Jing was a bit wrong, but she didn't expect him to be such a generous person.
She pondered for a long while, the air was filled with the faint aroma of tea, and Chen Wanwan said one last sentence.
"President Huai is really... open-minded."
As soon as she finished speaking, Huaijing put the purple sand pot aside, glanced at the distant mountains outside the window, and said, "Of course."
Chen Wanwan: "..."
When the atmosphere of the three people gradually eased, Zhan Liangting outside, under the guidance of the waiter, carried Kangkang to the room. As soon as he entered the door, Zhan Liangting apologized first: "I'm sorry, I'm late."
Zhan Liangting wore a plaid shirt and a black vest, with a pair of jeans on the lower body. He is also in his thirties this year, but Chen Wanwan likes little fresh meat, and the clothes she wears are very age-reducing.
Fortunately, Zhan Liangting has thick eyes and a small flat head, so he doesn't violate peace.
Zhan Liangting came at a trot all the way, but Kangkang couldn't keep up with him, so he was directly carried over by him. In addition to Kangkang, he also has a schoolbag with a dinosaur pattern in his arms.
Xu Xingxing found that many children now like ancient animals like dinosaurs. When Xingyuan got married, Mufu also held a dinosaur doll and waited for his father obediently eating candy.
"Aunt Xing Xing!" As soon as Kangkang's feet touched the ground, he ran to Xu Xing Xing's side with joy, and crashed into Xu Xing Xing's arms.
The little guy was a little taller than the last time we met, so when he rushed over, Xu Xingkong leaned back slightly. Next to Huai Jing stretched out his hand to support her, which eased the little guy's momentum when he rushed into her arms.
Huai Jing's support is very natural, like subconsciously protecting Xu Xingxing. Chen Wanwan took the schoolbag and put it aside, watching the two hold the child while the other poured tea for Zhan Liangting. The scene just flashed by, but it felt extra warm.
After Chen Wanwan sighed, she raised her voice and said, "You are so old, Aunt Xingkong can't hold you anymore, remember to slow down next time."
Kangkang was hugged by Xu Xingxing, he looked at Xu Xingxing apologetically, his small arms encircled Xu Xingxing, he lay in Xu Xingxing's arms, apologetically: "Aunt Xingxing, I'm sorry, I missed you so much just now. ."
"It's okay." Xu Xingxing reached out and pinched his red ears, and said with a smile, "Auntie can still hold it."
Kangkang was happy, and when he looked up, he saw Huaijing next to him. His big eyes rolled around, his body stood upright, he lay beside Xu Xingxing's ear, and put his hands on his mouth to whisper to Xu Xingxing.
"Aunt Xingkong, is he your boyfriend?"
Huaijing seemed to be telepathic, and looked up at the little boy. The little boy met his gaze, his big eyes quickly closed, and there was still a smile at the corner of his eyes.
The little boy is cute and cheerful, and his big eyes follow his mother, looking at the strange and strange. Huaijing's most direct impression of him was the painting he painted for Xu Xingxing last time.
The little guy is young, but he is quite warm.
Kangkang's words made Xu Xingxing's face blushed slightly. She raised her eyes and glanced at the side, and the man was also looking at her. He sat there lazily, his peach blossom eyes were slightly raised, and his light brown eyes contained a probing smile.
"Well." Xu Xingxing glanced at Kangkang with a smile and asked, "Do you like him?"
When asked such a sentence, Kangkang had a smile on his face. He looked at Xu Xingxing and said in a milky voice, "Aunt Xingxing likes me if she likes it."
The little guy's words made Xu Xingxing's heart warm, and even Huaijing next to him raised his eyebrows slightly.
Kids are really fun.
While Huaijing was thinking like this, Kangkang suddenly remembered something, left Xu Xingxing's arms, and zipped open his schoolbag beside Chen Wanwan.
He held the schoolbag in his little hand, and after a while he took out a drawing from it. After taking it out, he ran to Xu Xingxing's side, his big eyes glowing with excitement.
"Aunt Xingkong, look, this is the dinosaur that Teacher Bai drew for me. I said I wanted to come and have dinner with you, and he also drew an aunt dinosaur next to me."
Following Xu Xingxing's gaze, Huaijing's gaze also stopped on the painting.
The picture is of a grass, which should have been painted by Kang Kang. It is a little immature, but it is full of vigor and vitality when looking at the green. On the grass, three herbivorous dinosaurs are drawn.
The Q version is chubby and cute, and the strokes are very delicate.
"Mr. Bai's painting is very good, right? He's super amazing, I like him so much." Kang Kang did not hide his admiration for the teacher at all, and was eager to seek Xu Xingxing's affirmation.
As far as the matter is concerned, Bai Zhu's major is painting, how could his paintings be bad.
"Well, very powerful." Xu Xingxing nodded and agreed.
Huaijing listened to Xu Xingxing's answer and glanced at the three dinosaurs above, her eyebrows lowered, and the man's voice was a little low.
"Do you like dinosaurs?"
He took the initiative to talk to Kang Kang, and the little guy's eyes were still shining with the light of worship. This worship was worshipping Bai Zhu. Hearing Huaijing's question, he nodded innocently and said, "Yes, I like dinosaurs the most."
Looking at the light in the little guy's eyes, Huaijing raised his eyes and said, "I have a whole set of dinosaur models at home."
The topic moved in the direction of dinosaurs. Except for Huai Jing, the expressions of the three adults were unclear, and Kang Kang opened his eyes to the maximum.
In fact, Kangkang admires Bai Zhu because he can draw dinosaurs so well. The worship of a child is very simple. As long as it has something to do with what he likes, it is basically on his idol list.
It can be said that after Huaijing's words were thrown out, Kangkang's eyes widened.
The admiration for Bai Zhu in his eyes instantly transformed into admiration for Huaijing, and he said incredulously: "Really? Are there many? Triceratops, Tyrannosaurus Rex, Pterosaurs... all?"
Huaijing looked at Kangkang who was obviously leaning over, and the corners of her lips were slightly raised, and she said, "Yes, there are."
"Wow!" Kangkang exclaimed.
Huaijing looked at the light in the little guy's eyes, and asked, "Then who is the best teacher Bai and I?"
Kangkang walked along with Huaijing's topic. After listening to his words, Kangkang nodded with great determination and said, "You are amazing!"
After listening to the little guy's comments, Huai Jing reached out and rubbed his head, and said something to the other three adults.
"Look, children are innocent and honest, and they are the least likely to lie."
The other three: "..."
I thought that the first meal would be a little restrained, but because of Kangkang's presence, the atmosphere turned out to be quite harmonious in the end. Kang Kang seemed to regard Huai Jing as a new idol, and finally watched the cartoon in Huai Jing's arms.
The man is tall and tall, and even if he sits on the ground, his upper body is wider than ordinary people. Kangkang sat in front of him like a little Maitreya Buddha, Huaijing's body was slightly withdrawn, leaving enough space for him.
Under the light, the man's jaw line was tight, and his profile was exquisite and handsome. Kangkang asked him something from time to time. He looked down at the screen, his long curly eyelashes were shadowed under the light, dyeing his light brown eyes black.
His expression was light, but there was some concern in his eyes, and his well-shaped fingers pointed at the screen from time to time, answering Kangkang's questions.
The spring breeze blew through the window, bringing with it the coolness of the night and the fragrance of flowers stored in the daytime.
Xu Xingxing looked at Huaijing and Kangkang, and repeated this picture in his mind, as if he would never forget it.
After dinner, Huai Jing and Xu Xingxing went home.
Xu Xingxing seemed to have something on her mind, so she didn't talk much when she was on the road. When she got home, she went to the bathroom to take a shower and came out. Huaijing was calling Leo with the dinosaur-related books she just found from the study.
"Well, dinosaur models, the most complete set."
Xu Xingxing was taken aback for a moment, thinking of Haikou that Huaijing boasted in front of Kangkang today.
The Huaijing family is very big, and Xu Xingxing doesn't even go to every corner to see it now. She thought that Huaijing really had a trick, but she didn't expect that she lied to Kang Kang in order to praise him for his greatness.
"Do you want to buy a set?" Xu Xingxing looked at Huaijing and asked with a smile.
"Well." Huaijing got up and walked to the woman's side, unbuttoned the collar, the light cast a shadow on his collarbone, the man looked light, and said, "Even if you grow up, you must keep your child's innocence. "
He complimented his behavior, but Xu Xingxing exposed him at once.
She looked at Huai Jing and asked, "Didn't you still praise Senior Bai Zhu for his paintings? Why did Kang Kang praise him, and you just..."
When she was talking, Huai Jing had already walked to her side. He put his hands on Xu Xingxing's side, and he didn't look embarrassed after being pierced. He lowered his head and kissed the woman's lips, raised his eyes slightly, and said solemnly.
"I can praise Bai Zhu, but others can't praise him in front of you. In the eyes of others, I must be better than him. Because you chose me in the end, I can't let others question your choice."
I didn't expect him to be jealous and eat so carefully.
Xu Xingxing felt sweet in her heart, and the corners of her eyes curled with laughter. She raised her head and touched the tip of the man's nose, and asked, "Do you like Kangkang?"
She didn't talk too much today, and after asking such a question, Huaijing had a general understanding in her heart. He remembered the way Xu Xingxing looked at Kangkang, pursed his lips and said, "It's okay."
"I like it very much." Xu Xingxing's eyes flashed, she lowered her head, smiled and said, "I like children, and I also want to...hey..."
While Xu Xingxing was talking, Huai Jing pushed her down on the bed. He knelt halfway between her legs, lowered his eyes slightly, and gently unbuttoned his shirt with his long, white fingers.
"It's useless to think about it, you have to put it into practice."
"Ah?" Before Xu Xingkong could react, Huaijing lowered her head and kissed her, pulling her nightgown away.
After some practical actions, Xu Xingxing had a sore waist and weak legs, and her mind was dizzy. For a while, she forgot about having a baby.
She was in a daze, her eyes narrowed into a line, like a kitten, she was obediently held in her arms by the bosom, her breath was gently squirting on his chest, warm and humid.
Listening to her well-proportioned breathing, Huai Jing pulled the hair from her ear behind her ear and bit her ear lobe lightly.
"Huh?" Xu Xingxing tilted his head.
"You took me to meet your friends and family." Huaijing whispered in her ear, "Next, it's time for me to take you to meet my friends and family."
Xu Xingxing, who was drowsy, suddenly woke up like a muffled thunder under the rolling dark clouds.
see what?
