Chapter 62 Don't Make Me Too Difficult
"..."

A weekend dinner next week?
Lin Xi's expression was blank for a moment.

Her complexion was complicated, Qin Yu thought she was troublesome and didn't want to accompany him to attend.

"Just going through the motions." He emphasized again, "It won't take up too much of your time."

This kind of occasion is for socializing in the business district, and there are no outsiders.He usually attends such events without a female companion, only his assistant is with him.

Unfortunately, his words did not have any soothing effect.The expression on Lin Xi's face did not improve.

After deliberating for a long time, she said hesitantly: "I guess it's not very good."

"Working overtime that day?" It's no wonder Qin Yu thought of this, who made Lin Xi like to use the excuse of working overtime to prevaricate him no matter what.

Lin Xi clicked her tongue, "It would be nice if I worked overtime."

It is not in a dilemma now.

"Huh?" Qin Yu pressed his brows together, this time he really didn't know what she meant.

"Unfortunately, I have an appointment that day."

Lin Xi's network in Beijing is simple and clear, there is no one she knows that Qin Yu doesn't know.

So almost instantly, Qin Yu guessed who it was.

"Bai Xu?" It seemed to be a question, but his eyes were extremely certain.

Lin Xi pretended to be surprised, "Is it so easy to guess?"

A little bit of elimination, the answer is clear at a glance.

"I promised him this afternoon. Third brother, you are a little late."

"Next time." Lin Xi gave him enough face, not as mean as before, and joked with him: "Didn't I tell you before, my schedule is also very busy. Next time, third brother will meet with me in advance Say, I will definitely leave time for you."

"But this time I can just forget it, first come first served. Both sides are brothers, don't make it too difficult for me."

Compared to attending this kind of event with Qin Yu, she and Bai Xu were obviously more at ease.

After all, Qin Yu was the focus as soon as she appeared on stage, and she didn't want to be in the limelight.

It took Cheng Si and Bai Xu a while to come back, and they not only bought her pea yellow, but also some of her favorite food, and made a snack box.

At this time, Lin Xi usually doesn't eat. Although she doesn't have body anxiety and doesn't worry about gaining weight, she usually doesn't even drink water at such a late hour.

On the way back, she held the box and couldn't resist the temptation, so she secretly pinched a piece and put it in her mouth.

Today was supposed to be a heavy day, but with this delicate piece of pea yellow, she seemed...not so sad.

-

Autumn in Beijing seems to be just a momentary event, and there is no transition period at all.It was obviously still summer in the morning, but in the afternoon it suddenly blew up and rained.The temperature changed so fast, even though Lin Xi wore a coat every day, she still didn't escape the cold.

Hearing that she sneezed three times within 5 minutes, Chen Gong raised his head from behind the monitor and asked worriedly: "Lin Gong, you feel a little serious. Are you sure you don't need to go to the hospital?"

"There's nothing important today, why don't you go and have a look. I'll keep an eye on it here."

Lin Xi wiped her nose with a tissue, and said in a nasal voice, "I've taken medicine since I got up in the morning, and there's nothing wrong with a cold."

"The temperature has dropped rapidly recently, you have to pay attention."

"Yeah." Lin Xi's body was originally thin, and she couldn't bear it when the seasons changed, but it was not serious every time, and it was uncomfortable for two days at most.

During the lunch break, Lin Xi fell into a deep sleep because of a cold.

The assistant knocked on the door outside for a long time, but there was no response.

After waiting at the door for a while, the assistant opened the door carefully.Seeing that Lin Xi was still sleeping, he gently put the meeting minutes on her desk.Immediately afterwards, he saw that Lin Xi's computer was not turned off.

The above is the latest test data, only Lin Xi and Chen Gong have seen it.

He stood forward, trying to read the words clearly.

The next second, the screen suddenly went black.

Turning his head, he met Lin Xi's cold eyes.

"Uh... Lin Gong."

He took a nervous step back and explained, "I didn't see anything, I was just curious."

"Before I came in, I knocked on the door for a long time, but you didn't hear it when you fell asleep."

He was so scared that he hurriedly explained the reason.

During this period of time, he has been picked on by Lin Xi. She is a detail-oriented person. Working under her, her nerves are tense and she suffers a lot every day.

Lin Xi frowned, looked away from him, picked up the meeting minutes he sent on the table and flipped through them casually.

The assistant didn't dare to show his anger, and stood aside waiting for her to deal with it.

"Go out."

"Huh?" The assistant was stunned.

He had already thought about how Lin Xi would scold him, but in the end... that's it?
Lin Xi: "Is there anything else?"

"No!" The assistant pointed to the door, "Then I'll go back first."

Lin Xi didn't respond, and lay down back to her original position to continue resting.

The assistant looked back three times at a step and walked out the door, still unable to believe it was true.

Could it be because he was sick and didn't want to waste his combat power?

If this was changed before, Lin Xi would have to teach him a few words.

What a stroke of luck today...

As it turns out, the assistant was right.

Because of a cold, Lin Xi has been lacking energy all day, so he just takes a nap on the table when he finds time.He was also weak when he spoke, and his face was slightly sick.Basically, when encountering a problem, it is directly resolved into a minor matter.

"Gong Lin, do you still have to work overtime today?" Gong Chen packed his backpack and was about to leave, but found that Lin Xi was still sitting on the chair, showing no sign of leaving.

Lin Xi glanced at the time in the lower right corner of the computer, and responded as if waking up from a dream, "I will go back if I don't work overtime."

"That's okay, I thought you were sick and had to work."

Lin Xi stretched her waist, "I'm not going to make things difficult for myself. Unless Cheng Si pays me overtime."

Chen Gong smiled and went downstairs with her.

"Gong Lin, remember to take your medicine on time. See you tomorrow." Gong Chen waved at her.

Lin Xi smiled and nodded, "See you tomorrow."

As soon as she stepped out of the gate, the head-on wind directly blown her spirits away.It's autumn in Beijing, it's like winter.

Wrapping her coat tightly, Lin Xi walked out with her head down. She didn't want to do anything now, she just wanted to go home and sleep on the bed.

"Lin Xi!" Hearing her name, Lin Xi followed the voice slowly and looked over.

Lu Bei trotted over and looked a little uncomfortable seeing her.

"It's you." Lin Xi sighed, "What can I do for you?"

Since dragging him into the blacklist, the two have not been in touch for some time.

Lin Xi almost forgot about him, but finally met again.

"Isn't my aunt celebrating her birthday recently? My mother is out of town, so she asked me to deliver the gift. But I can't get in the yard. I passed by your company today, so I wanted to give you something."

Lu Bei handed over the paper bag in his hand, "Please pass it on for a while."
