    Chapter 14

    After waiting for a day and a night without any news of Li Chengxiu, Li Shuo began to suspect that Li Chengxiu did not go by himself, but was kidnapped by Shao Qun.

    He locked himself in the room and thought for a long time before asking his assistant to check Shao Qun's phone number, making full mental preparations, and dialing it.

    After the call was connected, both of them were silent for a while, and they probably guessed who the caller was from the area code. Li Shuo tried his best to restrain the disgust in his heart: "I am Li Shuo."

    The sound of inhalation came from the microphone, and then a young but arrogant voice almost roared and asked, "Where is Li Chengxiu? The Rebirth Journey!"

    Li Shuo's heart instantly cooled down. Shao Qun didn't seem to be pretending.

    The gunpowder-smelling confrontation that Li Shuo expected did not appear, and the voice was suddenly exhausted and vain: "He's gone..."

    "Shao Qun, you bastard! Now you are so fucking happy!" Li Shuo is very well-trained and can't say anything rude, but he has never been so disgusting to a person, so disgusting that he only needs to think of this name , trembling with anger, as if everything related to this person represents filth and unbearableness.

    Shao Qun obviously didn't have the strength to have a pointless quarrel with Li Shuo, he just said hoarsely, "Where could he go..."

    "How would I know, he said he went to a relative, but I never heard him mention any relative."

    Shao Qun choked: "He has no relatives..."

    Li Shuo said ruthlessly: "Shao Qun, Cheng Xiu doesn't have much money on his body, his condition is very poor, and he has no relatives. If something happens to him, I will never, never let you go!"

    Shao Qun did not speak.

    Li Shuo felt uncomfortable saying a word to him: "Pack up all your messy things, don't think you can trap me Li Shuo, it's just a matter of time before I go back, let me go back and find him!"

    The phone hangs up.

    Li Shuo grabbed the phone and threw it to the ground.

    He grabbed his hair with both hands, and used the sting of the roots to relieve the feeling of exploding.

    It's really strange. From childhood to adulthood, he was always surrounded by many people, but in the end he found that no one really belonged to him. This is nothing, he is a man, but he wants to be worthy of his heart, but he will never let go of the villain who comes first.

    When the vacation was over, Li Shuo packed his luggage and prepared to return to New York.

    He took his things and walked out the door, and saw that the housekeeper was arguing with Zhao Jinxin to carry the suitcase.

    "Young master, let me come, your hand is not ready yet."

    "My left hand is fine." Zhao Jinxin smiled and did not let go.

    "Master..."

    "I'll come." Li Shuo took Zhao Jinxin's box easily. Let the old housekeeper carry the box downstairs, he is really worried that something will happen.

    Zhao Jinxin flew a kiss to Li Shuo: "I feel so sorry for me." That slanted glance was so charming.

    Li Shuo was stunned, and glanced at the housekeeper, sure enough, the housekeeper's expression was a little embarrassing.

    Zhao Jinxin bent over and kissed the butler's cheek: "Fourth uncle, you have worked hard these days, don't tell my parents."

    "Hey." The housekeeper nodded again and again, "Be careful on the road."

    Going downstairs, Li Shuo asked in a low voice, "What did you just do?"

    "When I came out of your room in the morning, I happened to bump into the fourth uncle." Zhao Jinxin shrugged, "Don't worry, he doesn't talk nonsense."

    Li Shuo breathed a sigh of relief. As Zhao Jinxin said, the current relationship between the two is nothing more than a play on your own terms - not even really doing anything, Zhao Jinxin likes him, he completely believes it, but there are many kinds of likes, he I don't want to bear the risk of being discovered by my elders. Hail Mary [Synthesis].

    His expression was caught in Zhao Jinxin's eyes.

    When they got on the plane, the elders were still discussing this vacation, obviously they were still not satisfied.

    Li Shuo and Zhao Jinxin were still sitting in the back row. Zhao Jinxin quietly tugged on Li Shuo's pinky finger from time to time. After a few times, Li Shuo couldn't help being so entangled, grabbed his hand and pressed it under his thigh, and he was really satisfied. Be honest.

    Li Shuo was a little emotional, remembering that they were on the same plane and the same seat a few days ago, and he was quite wary of Zhao Jinxin, but now the two are ambiguous. Zhao Jinxin does have the means on the one hand, and the accident on Li Chengxiu's side is the main reason. Li Shuo felt a sense of fate that made him laugh and cry. The premonition that he was destined to fail had always accompanied him since he won Li Chengxiu to his side, but Li Chengxiu was too much in line with his expectations for the other half, so he did it A lot of unwise things. Perhaps Shao Qun shouldn't be blamed for the current situation, he is also an accomplice.

    Because of this, he felt that in addition to his love for Li Chengxiu, he had a responsibility.

    Back in New York, it's time for them to get down to business.

    Li Shuo helped Zhao Jinxin and the chief financial officer who was going to be sent to China to establish a financial system for the branch that was more in line with local conditions and improved audit efficiency. Of course, Li Shuo should not worry about this, but it was directed at Zhao Rongtian and his father. relationship, it was his duty to help him.

    The branch in Beijing now has several employees and is still recruiting and preparing. The first encounter between the two on the plane was because Zhao Jinxin returned to China for inspection.

    Although Li Shuo is always paying attention to the domestic situation, he tries his best to devote himself to the work at hand, otherwise he will not be able to stop thinking about it, and it would be fine to be someone else. Man, he doesn't dare to ask for anything now, he only hopes that Li Chengxiu will be safe.

    On this day, the three of them were in Zhao Jinxin's office, discussing which financial software to use for an afternoon. Chief Financial Officer Mr. Han hoped that the software should be compatible with the head office and could be connected to the internal network, but Li Shuo suggested that when they arrive in China, they should use the most commonly used software in the country, whether it is for domestic financial personnel or auditors who are employed. Convenience and efficiency, Zhao Jinxin did not make a statement for a while.

    At the end of the discussion, in fact, each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Seeing the sun goes down, the three of them are a little tired.

    Zhao Jinxin said, "I'll think about it, and let it go today."

    "Okay, Mr. Zhao, Mr. Li, can I treat you to a meal?"

    Zhao Jinxin glanced at Li Shuo and said with a smile, "Let's talk again, I'll invite you next time."

    President Han nodded: "Okay, then I'll go back first."

    Mr. Han packed his things and left.

    Li Shuo leaned back on the chair, raised his arms, and stretched his waist forcefully. The back of his neck protruded from his Adam's apple, and the line on the side was full of male strength and beauty.

    Zhao Jinxin stood up and closed the blinds.

    Li Shuo stopped, slowly lowered his arms, and looked at him fixedly.

    Zhao Jinxin smiled, walked over, and straddled Li Shuo's lap face to face: "Are you tired?"

    "Oh, it's heavy enough." Li Shuo has never been crushed on his thigh by someone who is still heavy in his life. "It's okay, are you tired?"

    "I'm not tired, it's just boring, obviously what you said makes sense, that Mr. Han was worried that changing a set of financial software would increase the difficulty of the head office's personnel assessment of his KPIs. After the first year of expatriation, he still entrusted The heavy task and the pressure must be great, and I can understand that the author who is chased and killed by the male protagonist can’t hurt (the female supporting member).”

    Li Shuo raised his eyebrows: "Yes, you can see it."

    Zhao Jinxin hooked his neck and pressed Li Shuo's forehead with his forehead: "Uncle Li, you look down on people, do I look stupid?"

    "You're just too young to be inexperienced."

    "What kind of experience are you talking about?" Zhao Jinxin put his lips around Li Shuo's nose instead, took a light bite, then went down and took a breath with Li Shuo's soft lips in his mouth.

    The heat between the lips and teeth is mind-blowing.

    Li Shuo's hand stroked Zhao Jinxin's back: "Want to eat?"

    "I want to eat you." Zhao Jinxin licked Li Shuo's lips with the tip of his tongue, then stuck it into his slightly opened mouth, hooking the hot and humid tongue.

    Li Shuo unconsciously hugged Zhao Jinxin's waist and responded to the eager kiss. The kissing skills of the two of them were remarkable, and kissing and kissing were suspected of being a bit dazzling. The simple kiss was extremely erotic, and the sound of water stains caused by the entanglement of lips and teeth made people blush.

    The two parted breathlessly, the corners of their mouths were wet-they were wet, and their eyes became deep.

    Li Shuo felt that his trousers were a little tight, and he said softly, "Dear, get up, I'll take you to eat something delicious."

    "Actually, I also really want to do it in the office." Zhao Jinxin said close to Li Shuo's ear, "Not only the office, but also many exciting places, do you want to know?"

    Li Shuo's Adam's apple slid slightly, he calmed down, grabbed Zhao Jinxin's waist, and put him on the ground: "Okay, if you're not hungry, I'm hungry. What do you want to eat?"

    Zhao Jinxin pouted: "Okay, listen to you."

    "Um... Want to eat hot pot? There is an old stove hot pot that our whole family often eats. It's very tasty."

    "OK."

    Li Shuo took his things, opened the door for Zhao Jinxin, and waited for him to go first.

    Zhao Jinxin walked to the door, then quickly kissed Li Shuo under the cover of the door panel, and then walked out of the office with a smile.

    There were people outside the office, and Li Shuo was a little scared, but he felt a different kind of excitement.

    The two drove to Brooklyn's Chinatown, which was as lively as ever.

    Li Shuo looked for a parking space and stopped the car, Zhao Jinxin looked left and right: "I rarely come here, it's so lively, there are everything for sale."

    "Yeah. You were born and raised in the United States. I came to the United States when I was ten years old. The cultural foundation and emotions are different. When I went out to eat before, most of them chose here."

    Zhao Jinxin smiled: "I studied in Beijing for three years of high school, and it's not much different from you."

    "Really, why did you go back to study at that time?"

    "My dad thinks my Chinese characters are ugly, and I'm afraid I'll forget my ancestors."

    Li Shuo laughed and said: "Uncle is really far-sighted [high cadre] The president is very black-bellied."

    "When I return to China in the future, you should always take me to find something delicious and fun."

    "Of course." Li Shuo opened the door and got out of the car, "I promised your parents that I would take good care of you."

    Zhao Jinxin went around to his side, put one hand on the door of the car, trapped Li Shuo between his tall body and the car, and said with a smile, "Apart from my parents?"

    Li Shuo blinked: "My parents?"

    Zhao Jinxin squeezed Li Shuo's chin, and said with his unique domineering and coquettish tone, "Say something nice to coax me, or I'll kiss you here."

    Li Shuo looked around, the two big men standing on the street with such an ambiguous posture was enough to attract attention, he really didn't want to be watched, so he had to say in a slightly doting tone: "I can't worry about you, I will take care of you."

    Zhao Jinxin showed a bright smile and quickly kissed Li Shuo.

    "You..." Li Shuo frowned and said in a feigned anger, "Why don't you say anything, young people nowadays are so unruly?"

    Zhao Jinxin said with a smile, "If you didn't kiss you in such a good atmosphere just now, it would be called unruly." That smile was a bit childish.

    Li Shuo's heart trembled slightly. He has never seen someone who can be like Zhao Jinxin, who is unexpectedly flirting with people all the time, every moment he gets along, he is guessing, the next second, what kind of moth this person will do, it is shocking , ecstatic, or pulsating.

    A person like Zhao Jinxin is really suitable for falling in love. He has the best conditions that a lover can have, and he is always creating all the romance, sweetness, surprise and excitement that a love needs. At his age, he should not have. This kind of terrifying skill, it can only show that he is a natural tune-eating master, and every breath is filled with hormones.

    "Just this, Uncle Li?" Zhao Jinxin tugged at his sleeve naturally, like a child, making people unconsciously let go of their guard.

    "Well, do you want to leave your coat in the car? Otherwise, it will smell like hot pot."

    "No." Zhao Jinxin said expectantly, "This is the first time you have invited me to dinner, the first time you have dated me in New York, the first time you have come to Chinatown together, the first time you have eaten hot pot, such an important day, I'm going to seal up this smelly dress and keep it as a souvenir forever."

    There was something sweet in Li Shuo's heart, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but raise, "Whatever you want."

    The two walked into the hot pot restaurant side by side.

    The boss knew Li Shuo. As soon as he saw him, he arranged a window seat for him. The business of this store is so good that it is full of people. Just smelling the spicy smell makes one's forefinger big. verb: move.

    The menu is just a piece of printing paper, you can choose it yourself, just like many hot pot restaurants in China. The table for the two of them was not big. They looked down at the menu, and they were very close. Zhao Jinxin lightly bumped Li Shuo's head twice, and then laughed.

    Li Shuo said helplessly, "You are not naive."

    "Don't you think I'm very cute?" Zhao Jinxin raised his eyebrows and made a funny expression.

    Li Shuo laughed and tapped his head with a pencil.

    Zhao Jinxin...is very cute, sexy and cute, just a fairy.

    At this time, someone passed by, accompanied by exclamation: "Hey? Jinxin?"

    The two raised their heads in unison, and there were two men standing in the aisle, both of Chinese descent, about the same age as Zhao Jinxin.

    "What a coincidence." Zhao Jinxin stood up and shook hands with them with a smile.

    Li Shuo also stood up politely and nodded to them.

    "Wow." One of the Chinese people looked Li Shuo up and down, his eyes were quite presumptuous.

    Li Shuo still smiled decently, even though the eyes of the two were rude and made him uncomfortable, he would not give up his self-restraint for this matter.

    "Don't guess." Zhao Jinxin said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "My dad's friend's eldest brother."

    "Stop pretending, we all saw your heads sticking to each other just now." The man snickered, "Don't you always like uncles."

    Zhao Jinxin narrowed his eyes slightly: "Oh, how did you know?" With a smile on his face, his tone cooled, and his eyes became a bit gloomy.

    Li Shuo was shocked. He had never seen Zhao Jinxin like this before, and the sudden coldness was a bit scary.

    The man's lips trembled, his face changed slightly, and he was speechless.

    The other one hurriedly rounded things up: "Hey Jinxin, didn't you say you won't be back until the end of the month, we're looking for you, and it's not funny that you say you can't come back for something important."

    "I'll be back if I have something at home." Zhao Jinxin said with a smile, "The aisle is so narrow, don't block others, let's talk another day."

    "well."

    After the two left, Zhao Jinxin explained: "I don't know my former classmates well, so don't worry about it."

    Li Shuo waved his hand, indicating "it's okay", and he asked, "You were going to come back at the end of the month?"

    Zhao Jinxin smiled and said, "Yeah, so is our first encounter a great fate?"

    "It's fate." Li Shuo lowered his head and chose the dishes one by one.

    Zhao Jinxin looked at Li Shuo, rubbed his fingers lightly, and his eyes flashed.

    Li Shuo handed the menu to the waiter, and then said casually, "So, have you always liked older people?"

    Zhao Jinxin smiled: "I like mature men. People always have a type they like."

    "Well." Li Shuo said with a gentle smile, "It seems that you are quite good at dealing with 'mature' men. After all, you have experience." He used to think that Zhao Jinxin was complimenting him, but he didn't expect Zhao Jinxin to really like his age.Big, this can explain why Zhao Jinxin dares to flirt with him-the one who lacks experience and determination will only follow his will, while Zhao Jinxin can take the initiative in a large proportion.

    It turns out that many opponents have practiced before.

    Li Shuo couldn't say what he felt in his heart, he just felt that if, if Zhao Jinxin's coquettishness and sneering were targeted, it would be very helpless. After all, he really eats this kind of thing, and a few adults can stand it.The child is coquettish.But this is not a bad thing, he still enjoyed it for a while.

    He didn't know how to explain the discomfort in his heart.
