    Qi An'an was experiencing the joy of trolling cats online, when she suddenly heard Jiang Lu call her.

    She turned her head and met Jiang Lu's dark eyes.

    These days, his eyes are not as cold and gloomy as they were when they first met, but they also reveal a cold and alienated look from time to time, rejecting people thousands of miles away.

    But at this moment, it is different. don't know if it is Qi An'an's illusion. Jiang Lu's eyes are clear, and there seems to be a vague softness in them.

    The young man has removed the sharp edges and corners, and his eyebrows are picturesque and unbelievably good-looking.

    He must have seen Dashun on his phone, right? He recognized his cat. Qi Anan thought, but now she should "don't know" that Dashun belongs to Jiang Lu, what should she say?

    Qi Anan thought for a while, and handed over the phone: "Jiang Lu, do you like cats? Let me show you?"

    Cub, don't worry, mother just raised it for you first, and when you have the ability to take care of him in the future, I will definitely find a suitable opportunity to return it to you along the way.

    Unexpectedly, Jiang Lu didn't read it anymore, he turned his head and stared at his book: "I don't like cats."

    Although don't know why his cat is with her, it can be seen from the pictures just now that it is well taken care of by Qi Anan.

    That little guy was not a daring one at first, but now in a picture that I have taken, I can see his arrogant and domineering eyes. A circle.

    He didn't like cats, Jiang Lu lowered his eyes, thinking of the kitten that was killed alive, he was not qualified to like anything.

    Zizai lied, Qi Anan thought melancholy, how could he not like it? It was the first time in so long that she saw Jiang Lu's eyes showing a soft look, and he must have recognized his cat.

    But he refuses to admit it now, perhaps because he is afraid that he will not be able to take care of him.

    ...

    When he came to school the next day, Qi Anan held a small square box in his hand.

    She didn't forget that Jiang Lu didn't have rubbers. Although she didn't buy ten pounds of rubbers for him, the rubbers she bought were carefully selected.

    Yesterday at the stationery store, Qi An'an brainstormed for a while. Ordinary erasers were cumbersome and dull, impersonal and easy to confuse sensitive cubs. It was too bells and whistles, seemed a little naive, and was not practical. She picked it up and finally picked out a satisfactory piece.

    Jiang Lu came early every day, when Qi Anan walked into the classroom, Jiang Lu had been sitting in the seat for an unknown time.

    She put down her schoolbag and happily handed out the square box in her hand: "Jiang Lu, it's for you."

    Jiang Lu turned her head slightly, Qi An'an's smile was bright and pleasing, the morning sunlight shone in from the window, and her shaggy hair was dyed light gold.

    The little girl's hands were tender, with a small boxy box lying on it.

    Jiang Lu's heart seemed to be stung by something, itchy and painful.

    The few gifts in his life came from the little girl in front of him.

    Jiang Lu murmured: "What is this?" The patterns on the box are fresh and delicate, lively and cute, which is incompatible with his whole personality.

    Qi Anan breathed a sigh of relief, she was also worried that Jiang Lu would ignore her, so he asked, it seemed there was a drama.

    Of course it's the rubber your mother bought for you, my darling.

    Qi An'an smiled even more, and put the small box directly in Jiang Lu's hand: "You will know when you open it."

    After hesitating for a few seconds, Jiang Lu gently picked up the small square box. The small box made of paper was flimsy and fragile, he put down his strength and did not make any folds.

    The box opened, and a piece of rubber fell out.

    It's not an expensive gift. The round eraser that is common in stationery stores is made into the shape of a cat's head. A few blue lines on the white eraser outline a squinting cat.

    Qi An'an's eyes became bright the moment Jiang Lu took out the eraser. Her eyes were originally big and round, but when she laughed, they curved into small crescents, which were somewhat similar to the cat's head on her hand.

    The smile was a bit scorching, Jiang Lu's pale fingers stroked the smiling face of Mao Maotou, and whispered, "Thank you."

    Qi An'an was very happy, and the cub is too good today: "If you like it, then..." She paused and asked Jiang Lu tentatively, "Are we friends now?"

    If you don't answer her, she just keeps staring at you with such a pair of eyes.

    Jiang Lu's lips pursed slightly, and finally he just said, "It's time for class, sit down."

    Jiang Lu lost his mind in class for the first time.

    Just now he put the eraser next to the stationery box, but just now while she was listening to the class, he quietly held it in his palm.

    After a while, his small gift gradually took on his temperature. Jiang Lu gently put the cat's head rubber into the box and carefully placed it in the pocket of the middle of the schoolbag.

    But he was still a little sad in his heart. In fact, if he could, he wanted to say "yes" just now.

    ...

    Before knew it, it was next Tuesday, the day Qi An'an has been thinking about. After school that day, Jiang Lu packed his things and walked out of the school gate, but he didn't walk in the usual direction of going home.

    Qi Yan picked up Qi An'an at the school gate on time, and smiled when he saw her: "How is it? Brother, keep your word."

    Qi An'an fastened his seat belt while getting into the car, while smoothing the hair for the golden retriever: "I don't believe you, you are the best."

    "By the way, I won't sit with you for a while, I'll just watch you from a distance."

    Qi Yan didn't understand: "Why? Aren't you curious to see him?"

    Alas, he doesn't understand, Zizai is a very sensitive person, and he is very thoughtful at a young age. If she sits there, don't know if it will make him think too much.

    Just look at it from a distance, think optimistically, in case nothing will happen today, then she can end the escort mission with her merits and fame, and if there is really an unexpected situation, she can do it immediately take action.

    Qi An'an said, "You two are talking about business, I will disturb you if I sit there."

    Qi Yan shook his head and smiled, his eyes full of pampering, forget it, An An can do whatever she likes, anyway, nothing will happen if he is there. Now his sister is much more lively and laughing than before, and she always acts like a spoiled child with him. She is more pleasing than before, and he will indulge her whatever she wants.

    The place where they met was a high-end coffee shop. In order to avoid the plot to a greater extent, Qi Anan asked Qi Yan to book a private room, and she sat behind a wind chime screen in the hall outside the private room.

    Jiang Lu arrived a few minutes earlier than the agreed time. He walked directly to the private room, not paying attention to Qi An'an outside.

    Qi Yan waited for two minutes, and when Jiang Lu pushed the door in, the gentleman got up and shook hands with him: "Hello, Qi Yan."

    On this side, Qi Yan remembered that this young man seemed to be An An's classmate that day.

    Jiang Lu endured physical contact, Xu Xu shook his hand, and immediately released: "Jiang Lu."

    Qi Yan had only known Jiang Lu a little bit before. Knowing that he was young and still in school, he looked at the door: "Hey? Where are your parents?"

    Signing a contract is a big deal, especially with a well-known game company like him. In his imagination, the other party must be a young son who grew up with gold and jade, and was nurtured and nurtured by his family. With such an achievement at a young age, his family must be proud of him.

    Today, even if the parents are present, it is normal for grandparents, or a few more relatives to come together. And now this situation is not expected by Qi Yan, let alone other relatives, the parents have not seen the shadow.

    Jiang Lu looked at him calmly: "I don't have parents."

    As soon as he entered the door, he recognized it. This was the man who called Qi An'an's name in the car on the street that day. At that time, Qi Anan said that this was her brother. Judging from his appearance and his name, it seemed that he was still his own brother.

    Jiang Lu's eyes swept across Qi Yan's face, his hand on the table was put down, and there was no emotion on his face.

    Qi Yan was a little interested, the young man in front of him was indifferent and cold, without the pride and excitement of a child, even calmer than him, which was completely different from what he expected.

    Since he has such a composure far beyond his age, Qi Yan omitted the opening remarks and pushed the contract over: "Look at the contract. According to what we talked about before, if there is anything that needs to be discussed, let me know."

    Jiang Lu stared at the thick stack of black and white letters in front of him, and lightly tapped the table with his slender fingers.

    He admitted that he wanted to sign this contract just before entering the door, after all, he had to support himself with his own hands.

    After hesitating for a few seconds, Jiang Lu pushed the contract back: "I'm sorry, I don't want to sign it. I'm very sorry for wasting your time."

    "Why don't you want to sign?" Qi Yan never expected Jiang Lu's reaction, "You didn't even read the contract."

    He thought for a while and said, "You are still in school, and in my eyes, you are half a child. We don't need to play those dumb riddles in the shopping mall. I know you are very famous, and it must be more than my company who wants to sign you. If If you have any comments on the salary, you can tell me directly, it doesn't matter."

    In fact, Qi Yan can't figure it out, their company is a well-known company in the industry, even laymen have heard a word or two. The other party has a lot of qualifications, but after all, he is still young and can't compare with the old master writer, but it is not too small to be able to offer a seven-digit annual salary. Qi Yan felt that almost no company could offer more favorable treatment than what he gave.

    Jiang Lu shook his head: "It's not because of these, it's my personal reasons, sorry."

    It wasn't because he was dissatisfied with the conditions offered by the other party. Although other companies did contact him, this was not the reason for him to change his mind on the spot. If had to find a reason...it was because of the identity of the person in front of me.

    When he learned that his boss was Qi An'an's brother, he suddenly resisted.

    He couldn't tell what happened to him, he clearly didn't hate Qi An'an at all.

    Seeing Jiang Lu's resolute attitude, Qi Yan didn't say anything: "Well, I respect your personal wishes. If you still have intentions in the future, I hope we can have the opportunity to cooperate."

    Jiang Lu stood up: "I'm sorry to make you go away in vain."

    Qi Yan smiled and shook his hand: "That's not necessary, don't be so polite, I'll just..."

    Before he could finish speaking, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open, and a man with a shiny face and a beer belly walked in from outside.

    Seeing someone inside, he was stunned for a moment, saying "wrong way" to turn around and leave, but his eyes fell on Jiang Lu, but he stared at Jiang Lu.
