"What?" Ji Li didn't understand the other party's question.

Qi Muchu frowned obviously, and suddenly thought of another question: "You didn't recognize me just now?"

Ji Li: "..."

Ji Li's silence is equivalent to acquiescence.

Then Qi Muchu also acquiesced.

...

The silence speaks.

Looking at each other strangely for a while, Ji Li felt that Mr. Qi was in a very bad mood now.

... But he didn't want to either.

He is also very embarrassed now.

Thinking of the scene where he asked loudly who the other party was just now, Ji Li felt embarrassed and wanted to crawl into the cracks in the ground!

It's not a matter of being blind.But why is he so stupid, if he thinks about it with his feet, he should be the first to think of wearing a suit and appearing majestically in his house, the most likely one is Qi Muchu!

Such a blatant person, can't he be a thief?

"...I don't have good eyesight, I didn't see clearly." Ji Li casually said something to save himself.

Qi Muchu's lips moved, as if he wanted to say something.

But when he turned his eyes, his gaze fell directly on the mobile phone Ji Li was holding: "Who are you talking to?"

"a friend."

Ji Li answered truthfully.

Qi Muchu: "What friend?"

It was only then that Ji Li noticed that on the other side of the phone, Ye Qing's voice had never stopped from the beginning to the end: "...eight times a year, tsk tsk tsk, Mr. Qi can't do it... What's the matter, your husband is backIsn't he definitely not coming back this month??... Then I won't bother you, hang up first!"

After finishing speaking, a blind beep sounded.

Ji Li: "..."

Qi Muchu's voice sounded again, and he obviously heard the other party hang up the phone.

"Hang up pretty fast."

Ji Li: "...it's pretty fast."

"What friend?" Qi Muchu looked at Ji Li's face again, and actually asked a second time.

Ji Li: "?"

Because they live in the same city, Ji Li and Ye Qing met Ji several times.

Coincidentally, the other party had even heard of Qi Muchu.

Take Ye Qing's words: Anyone who cares a little bit about business has heard of Qi Muchu's name.

But in fact, Ye Qing should have met Qi Muchu in reality.

Ji Li knew that Qi Muchu was a business leader, and it was Ye Qing who first told him about it.

PS: Ye Qing is a great book writer on the Internet, but in reality, it is said that he is a rich second generation.

It's the kind of person who wants to go home and inherit the family business if he doesn't become famous, and is troubled by it...

But at this moment, what shocked Ji Li the most was, why did Mr. Qi care so much about his friend today?

They were married for a year, and Qi Muchu never asked about his life.Never cared about his social life.

This time, actually asked a person's identity twice in a row!

Although every time it was just a questioning tone, no emotion could be heard.

Still weird though...

Unable to figure out what happened to the other party, Ji Li had no choice but to answer casually: "A friend I met online."

Qi Muchu: "Oh?"

A simple self-sound of "oh", uttered from Qi Muchu, sounds like it has turned three corners.

Means unknown.

Ji Li: "...?"

I don't know if it's a hallucination, but he seems to have seen Qi Muchu's eyebrows raised for a moment.

... Mr. Qi is not normal today.

Quite abnormal.

Why is he so expressive!

Although he is face-blind, Ji Li can still roughly judge a person's thoughts and moods from his expression and demeanor.

Only when facing Qi Muchu, it is always difficult for him to figure out what the other party is thinking.

...

Because Mr. Qi never showed any expression!

This made Ji Li have to look at Qi Muchu again.

The other party was wearing a very neat full suit. Although he had been sitting on the small sofa for a while, the clothes on his body didn't have any wrinkles.

He didn't wear a tie, but it was buttoned neatly and respectably, and even the neckline was not loose.A black gemstone cuff button on the cuff was shining coldly and low-key in the dim light.

Even though he has already returned home, Qi Muchu feels very formal.

Although he is engaged in finance, his private life is as strict as a lawyer's rules.

For example, the agreed time will not be mistaken, and there will be no difference in one second; another example is to be ritualistic no matter what you do, and so on.

Besides, Qi Muchu stood very straight, with a straight back.

The opponent has always been like this.

And because of his height and broad shoulders, he will look quite tall when standing like this.

Coupled with his expressionless handsome face...

Restraint and abstinence, but also crazy and sexy.

Brings to mind literal thugs in suits.

Of course, Ji Li already knew how thug Mr. Qi was in the dark after taking off this suit...

cough cough.

After all, there are eight times.

Just when Ji Li was looking at the other party in puzzlement, and thinking about what he had, Qi Muchu spoke again, expressing what he had just said with a blank face: "You said that after the two of us got married, a year laterOnly eight times."

Ji Li: "..."

Even if he didn't look at the other person's expression this time, he could hear some low pressure and depression from the other person's tone.

It was obvious that Mr. Qi was not in a good mood at the moment.

Judging by his face, he doesn't look very good either...

but why?

What's wrong?

Eight times a year... Isn't that true?

Ji Li, who has always been sensitive to all numbers, is confident that it is impossible for him to remember wrongly.

Seeing that the distance between Qi Muchu and himself had been shortened from ten meters to one meter, Ji Li didn't understand what he meant, so he could only stand there and look at him.

In Qi Muchu's field of vision, Ji Li has fair skin, a pretty face, extremely bright peach blossom eyes, and a delicate and small bright red tear mole at the corner of his right eye.

Not eye-catching, but it embellishes everything just right.

The eyelids twitched slightly, Qi Muchu's eyelashes twitched, and he took a deep breath: "It's only eight times a year....Do you think it's less?"

Ji Li: "..."

this.

Really.

a little less.

"Haha, why did you say this all of a sudden?" No matter what his real thoughts were, Ji Li subconsciously denied it.

Followed by a polite smile.

He has always liked to put a smile on his face, and the old man said that such a person is blessed.

Ji Li also often feels that he is quite blessed.

Facing Mr. Qi's expression that seemed to relax a little because of his answer, Ji Li smiled more reservedly and politely: "It's okay, I know you are busy."

Accidentally used the honorific - this is the address that Ji Li would only use when talking to people who are not close but have good senses. Ji Li realized it and quickly adjusted: "Let's talk about youThere are enough households for me, and I will not make trouble for no reason..."

"So." Qi Muchu understood, and his expression became unclear: "This number is still too small."

Ji Li waved his hand honestly and said, "You really don't have to care..."

Qi Muchu interrupted him directly: "Understood."

Ji Li: "...?"

The next moment, under Qi Muchu's operation, all the lights in the hall were turned on.

After all, it is a large flat floor of nearly 1,000 square meters, and the living room just entered the house has nearly 200 square meters.

It would take a lot of electricity to brighten up the whole place... There are one big and two small chandeliers filled with light bulbs alone.

Ji Li subconsciously calculated the wattage and electricity bill when all the lights were at their brightest, and then was called by Qi Muchu to sit on the small sofa just now.

"By the way, speaking of it, Mr. Qi, why did you come back suddenly?" Ji Li just realized something was wrong.

Just like being punctual, Qi Muchu kept his word.

He said he would come back one day, and he would definitely come back that day.

Correspondingly, if he didn't say in advance which day he would come back, then he would definitely not come back.

At least this year of marriage has been such a rule, and it has never been broken.

Before that, Ji Li had not received the news that Mr. Qi was going back to Bin City.

That's why it wasn't that Ji Li was stupid. When he saw a man in a suit, he didn't immediately think that it was his husband. He would rather think that the man was Dai Hengyi or some kind of thief.

It's Qi Muchu's appearance, which is unreasonable in itself!

After a moment of silence, Qi Muchu said, "I'll come back for a while."

Ji Li was even more surprised: "Aren't you leaving?"

Qi Muchu: "Yes."

Ji Li: "Aren't you going?"

Qi Muchu: "...you really want me to go?"

"of course not."

Sensing the other party's suddenly raised tone, Ji Li hurriedly explained: "I'm just curious... what happened? Your complexion looks very bad."

Ji Li really started to worry.

Don't tell me there's something wrong with the business, right?

Qi Muchu said calmly, "Something happened, but it's over."

He looked at Ji Li, and his tone suddenly became serious again: "I came back this time just to stay a little longer, rest for a while, and be with you."

"Oh that's good."

Ji Li breathed a sigh of relief.

...He was already thinking about what to do after 500,000 monthly households were canceled if Qi Muchu went bankrupt...

"Ji Li."

Qi Muchu's voice sounded right next to his ear, which brought Ji Li back to his senses.

The man's deep and hoarse voice made him feel numb all over - before he knew it, they were already so close...

No matter whether he is outside or at home, Qi Muchu looks aloof and unattainable. In Ye Qing's words, he has an air of extravagance.

So generally speaking, the two of them are so close, that means...

Ji Li subconsciously held his breath as the faint woody aroma from the opponent's body hit him.

Oh oh oh.

Is this the ninth time coming this year?

Ji Li's hands that were habitually resting on his knees subconsciously clenched them tightly.

But Qi Muchu who approached him frowned.

The tall nose brushed against Ji Li's skin, and he raised his hand to hold the hand that the young man subconsciously came to block because of the itching.

Qi Muchu lowered his head, sniffed at Ji Li's shirt again with a gesture that no one could refuse.

"...you smell of someone else's perfume."
