Chapter 12 People change

Jiang Li was eating the fruit platter seriously with her head down. She didn't stop talking the whole time, but she ate very slowly and chewed carefully. Her movements were elegant and decent, her eyes were clear, and she was looking attentively at the food on the plate in front of her.

.

The bright light fell from the top of her hair, like a goddess walking from the altar into the world. She was sacred and could not be desecrated. Anyone who looked at her would be in a trance. Even though her words were insulting, she still couldn't help but look at her more.

One or two glances.

Eucommia ulmoides came over and interrupted her in a low voice: "Mrs. Boss, the boss wants you to go home early."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's chatter and laughter stopped suddenly, and they looked at Jiang Li with strange eyes.

Someone sarcastically said: "Hey, you are really on a high branch. The family is very strict."

When the man spoke, his eyebrows were dancing and he was in a strange mood. Jiang Li raised his head and glanced at her lightly, then turned his head and said to Du Zhong, "Okay, I'll go back right now."

With that said, she put down the knife and fork in her hand, took out a piece of paper and wiped the corners of her lips, then stood up to get her bag, but Eucommia ulmoides passed it over to her one step ahead.

Jiang Li nodded to Shang Xingyan: "Then I'll leave first, you guys have fun."

"It's getting late, I'll see you off." Shang Xingyan stood up as she did, and opened the door before she could refuse.

Jiang Li also saw the redness and swelling on his wrist because of this, and felt a little sorry. He said softly: "I'm sorry."

Shang Xingyan had already retracted his hand and walked side by side with her, with an apologetic smile on his face. He tilted his head slightly toward her when he spoke, "It's okay. Just apply some ointment when you get back. It's you, I invited you here."

But I didn’t give you a good experience. I hope you can give me another chance to make up for it when I have time next time.”

He was always like this, tenderly turning a blind eye to all her shortcomings, and even if he saw them, they would only be brought upon himself.

Jiang Li was very grateful to him and smiled sincerely on his face, "Thank you."

[Congratulations to the host, the favorability is +5, and the current target character’s favorability is 55.]

Eucommia ulmoides followed the two men, his vigilant eyes never moving away from Shang Xingyan's back. His intuition told him that this man was far from being as kind as he seemed on the surface.

No, for Brother Lu's lifelong happiness, he must do something.

When he walked to the elevator, Du Zhong asked someone to bring over a box of durian millet and said to Jiang Li mysteriously: "By the way, boss lady, Brother Lu sounds a little bit in a bad mood. Just take this back to comfort him."

La! Don’t tell him I said that!”

Jiang Li was stunned. She remembered that Phytolacca didn't like desserts. In the past, cakes and desserts brought back by the team from any events or competitions were always given to her.

But maybe she remembered it wrong.

Jiang Li took it with a smile and thanked him warmly: "Okay, thank you."

The midsummer night is still annoyingly hot. You can feel the oncoming heat as soon as you step out of the door. The roadside is brightly lit and people are coming and going. The aroma of barbecue and the sound of other food are carried along with the heat.

Came over.

"Brother, would you like to buy this beautiful young lady a bouquet of flowers?" A young girl walked over with a smile. Jiang Li looked behind her and saw a beautiful cart filled with flowers.

The car, perhaps for the sake of atmosphere, has a circle of small lights around it.

"Sorry." Shang Xingyan refused with a polite smile, "She doesn't like flowers."

"Oh~" The girl looked a little disappointed, but Jiang Li walked to her cart and looked at her flowers seriously.

The sunflowers are blooming enthusiastically and flamboyantly, and the green fur balls are full of green. The sight of them makes people feel light-hearted.

"Your flowers are very beautiful, can I choose them myself?" Jiang Li praised sincerely, and the girl's eyes immediately lit up, she scratched the back of her head sheepishly, and nodded hurriedly, "Okay, okay!"

Shang Xingyan glanced at Jiang Li in surprise, but the latter didn't seem to notice. He bent down and listened to the girl's incoherent and excited introduction.

The girl is a sophomore at a nearby university. She usually sets up a stall to sell some flowers for living expenses, hoping to reduce the burden on her family.

Jiang Li carefully selected three blooming sunflowers, two green fur balls and three white ping pong chrysanthemums, and gave them to the girl to pack.

"I remember that you didn't like flowers before."

On the way, Shang Xingyan turned his head to look at Jiang Li from time to time. The latter seemed to be in a good mood, holding a bouquet in one hand, hooking the paper bag containing durian phyllo with his index finger, and playing with the green fur ball with the other hand.

There was a peaceful smile on her face, and under the dim light of the street lamp, there was a kind of compassion that was beyond the world.

"People change." Jiang Li replied softly.

In fact, it's not that she likes flowers, it's just a matter of habit.

She and Shang Lu had been married for three years, and although they always disliked each other, every Valentine's Day or her birthday, perhaps to deal with Mr. Shang's words, he would bring back a bouquet of flowers.

In most cases, it is a combination of brightly blooming sunflowers and red ranunculus, and sometimes simple yellow gerbera.

He didn't say anything, he just took advantage of the darkness and put it on the dining table.

At first, she would call and ask, but the young master was busy training and would always reply angrily, "I didn't buy it, someone else gave it to me. You can just take care of it yourself," and then hung up.

At first, she would throw the flowers into the trash can in disgust, but as time went by, she got used to it. She would prepare some simple and exquisite flower vessels at home, and learn to prune the flower branches and arrange the flower shapes by herself.

Later, I would often buy some flowers to take home.

When you come back from a business trip after working overtime or being disturbed by a young master, seeing the bright and gorgeous flowers blooming will always make people feel tired.

Shang Xingyan looked away from her, just as a fast-moving tram was about to pass by Jiang Li. Shang Xingyan, with quick eyes and quick hands, took her wrist and pulled her behind him.

After the tram rider passed by, Shang Xingyan turned around and asked, "How are you doing? Are you injured anywhere?"

"No, thank you just now." Jiang Li shook her head and lowered her head to get the car keys from her bag, but her hands were already full.

Shang Xingyan noticed her dilemma and gently took out the bouquet of flowers from her arms, "I'll hold it for you first."

"drop!"

"Thank you for today." Jiang Li put the durian milleple layer on the passenger seat, took the bouquet from Shang Xingyan and got into the car, "Then I will go back first. After your team building is over, remember to bring the bill

Send me a copy and I'll transfer the money to you."

"A Li, you don't have to be so polite to me." Shang Xingyan closed the door for her and stared at Jiang Li with his eyes hidden under his gold-rimmed glasses.

The alienation she deliberately displayed made him feel a little irritated, but Jiang Li just pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.

Shang Xingyan sighed lightly, stood up and waved to her, "Be careful on the road and say good night to you in advance."
