Chapter 38(3/4)
Take the elevator to the downstairs, and Zhimian follows the instructions to walk to the restaurant.
She stepped on the Persian carpet and walked around a crystal fountain at the entrance of the restaurant. She looked down at her phone, and suddenly her shoulder hit someone.
"Excuse me……"
She looked up after apologizing, and suddenly was stunned-
Work pants, black sweatshirts, and upwards are the neat and distinct jaws and bold facial features.
Every inch is particularly familiar.
Zhimian thought it was an illusion when he met the gaze of the previous one.
This is W City, separated from Lincheng provinces, how could she meet him here?!
The corners of the man's lips curled up for a moment: "What, it's a surprise?"
She covered her lips, "Why are you here?"
"There are some things at work. The Renshi branch of City W City needs me to come and discuss cooperation recently."
His explanation is reasonable and well-founded.
Zhimian didn't expect it to be so coincidental, but he didn't have time to say more at this moment: "I have social engagements tonight, so I'll leave first."
"Um."
Zhimian continued to walk towards the restaurant, and Li Niannian next to her excitedly grabbed her sleeve: "Xiaojiu, who is he?! Damn it so handsome! My God, is he your friend? Why have you never seen such a handsome guy? I won't introduce me to me!"
Zhimian was helpless, "It's my ex-boyfriend."
"Your ex-boyfriend?! Oh my god..." Li Niannian once heard Zhimian mention it briefly, and finally saw his true face today. "I take back what I said just now, I definitely don't dare to covet this person!"
“…”
The two walked into the restaurant and, under the guidance of the waiter, walked to the private room.
When I opened the door, there were not many people coming inside. Basically, they were staff members and directors of the program team. Zhimian said hello to them and sat down at the round table. Not long after, a person came in the private room again.
The woman was wearing a long black velvet dress, holding a small sachet, with her hair bent and her red lips were charming.
Zhimian recognized at a glance that the other party was Yu Ningshuang.
After not seeing each other for a year, Yu Ningshuang has become more aura. Because her recent serial works are very popular, she seems to have confidence in her every move.
"Hello Director Li..."
Yu Ningshuang shook hands with everyone politely, and finally it was Zhimian's turn.
The moment her eyes fell on Zhimian, her eyes changed slightly, and then she smiled and stretched out her hand: "Hello, I'm Yu Ningshuang."
"Hello, I know autumn at a glance."
“Have we seen it before?”
"Yeah." Zhimian said the location, Yu Ningshuang thought about it, and smiled Yanran: "I remember, I didn't have much impression of Teacher Yimu Zhiqiu last year, but you have made a lot of progress this year. It's so amazing. I have always wanted to know you."
Zhimian took her words humbly, and the two chatted for a few words, and the other painters also arrived one after another.
Xu Er was the last one to arrive.
He rarely appears on public platforms, and Zhimian never knows what he looks like.
Until the man walked into the box in a light gray casual outfit, his face was solemn and he wore glasses, giving people a sense of maturity, stability and inaccessibility.
Everyone stood up and greeted Xu Er in turn.
Yu Ningshuang smiled brightly, bowed to him, and when she shook hands, she smiled: "Hello Teacher Xu Er, I like you very much, you are my idol..."
However, Xu Er just smiled faintly, just like shaking hands before, without saying anything, the boss was full of aura.
Finally, it was Zhimian's turn. She suppressed her excitement and shook hands with Xu Er, but the other party suddenly said: "Zhiqiu at a glance, I have heard your name."
"Have you heard it?"
"Last year you won the silver medal in the Australian Comic Creative Competition. I have seen the works and they are very good."
This was a competition that Zhimian participated in last summer. It was of great value. At that time, she just wanted to sign up to challenge it, but she didn't expect that the work would win the award. At that time, there was only one of her works in China, and she was also a senior who had won the award two years ago.
Zhimian didn't expect to get Xu Er's praise, and his eyes were curved: "Thank you, Teacher Xu Er, I actually painted it very ordinary..."
He nodded, "Stay working hard, you are still young."
"good."
Yu Ningshuang watched from the side, clenched her palm slightly, and her eyes felt like a thorn was pierced.
She looked at Zhimian's outfit, just like last year, they wore the same color again today, but it seemed like a bigger irony.
No matter how delicate she dressed, she and Zhimian were there, and the appearance looked like crystal contrast and diamonds, Zhimian seemed to have its own light.
He is good-looking and now he has more strength.
A year has passed, and Zhimian has really stood since the unknown little painting hand that year to his current position.
In Lehua, her own comics are so popular that she can’t beat the autumn at a glance.
The published sales data cannot be beat.
Even the cooperation with Smiya was taken away.
Even a few paintings praised her alone.
The jealousy in her heart was burning like a fire, and she gritted her teeth secretly.
After everyone arrived, the dinner officially began.
Wine glasses clashed.
Zhimian was having a meal and talking to others. Suddenly, she felt a slight pain in her stomach. She squinted her eyes and frowned slightly-
at the same time.
Outside the restaurant box and in front of the square table, Duan Zhuo looked at the menu and finally ordered a few random orders.
Come here to eat is not the purpose.
Last night, he asked Cheng Li to check Zhimian's itinerary. After knowing that she was here, it happened that other gyb team members had a training class these days, so he didn't have to participate, so he finally decided to come to W City to meet the little girl.
If it were the past, he would not have done this at all.
But now, he just wants to appear next to her in various ways.
He didn't eat much at night, and Cheng Li solved the problem of what he ordered on the table. He got up and walked to the bathroom to smoke and smoke.
He stood in the corner opposite the bathroom, smoking a cigarette, and suddenly glanced at the little girl walking towards him-
Zhimian covered his stomach with his hands, his face was a little bad, and he was surrounded by his assistant.
The two walked into the bathroom.
Duan Zhuo's eyebrows frowned.
What's wrong with her? I feel uncomfortable?
Duan Zhuo reacted in his mind for a few seconds, thinking about today's date and guessing what he guessed.
He vaguely remembered that the little girl had her period at the end of the month every time she had her period, and she sometimes had dysmenorrhea and felt very uncomfortable.
Duan Zhuo originally wanted to wait for her to come out at the door and ask about the situation, but he realized that the relationship between the two was no longer the same as before. In addition, there were outsiders, which might make the little girl very embarrassed.
Duan Zhuo walked back to the restaurant, explained to Chen Li, and then left the hotel.
He walked on the street and finally found a convenience store ten minutes later. He went in and took a walk around, a little overwhelmed, and finally found the cashier in front of the cashier.
"Hello, ask-"
The young cashier girl was originally looking down at the video of her mobile phone. When she heard a cold voice, she looked up and saw Duan Zhuo. She was shocked by his handsome appearance and quickly stood up, "Hello, what do you need?"
The man coughed lightly, "If a girl has dysmenorrhea, is there anything that can be relieved?"
The cashier was surprised and said, "If you have dysmenorrhea... we have a brown sugar ginger tea here, I'll take you to see it."
She led the man over, Duan Zhuo finally bought a pack, and said, "Can you give me a cup to brew?"
"No problem, I'll help you."
The cashier was urging and sighed, "It's okay if the boy is handsome now, he has a girlfriend and is so considerate. This world is too unfriendly to single dogs."
Finally, Duan Zhuo walked out of the convenience store with brown sugar ginger tea.
He suddenly realized that the little girl would look like she received the ginger tea later, and she couldn't help but curl her lips.
It was almost eight o'clock and the dinner finally ended. Zhimian said goodbye to his deskmate, walked out of the restaurant with Li Niannian, and planned to go back upstairs to rest.
When he walked out of the restaurant, Zhimian suddenly heard someone calling her name behind him.
When I turned around, it was Duan Zhuo who walked towards her.
Eh?
The man walked up to her. Seeing this, Li Niannian blinked at Zhimian, said and waited for her at the elevator entrance, and left first.
Duan Zhuo looked at her face with his eyes down and asked, "Does his stomach still hurt?"
