full-time lovers

Chapter 111

"Dad likes it, so I have to like it?"

Lu Ran's tone was a bit aggressive, which made Jia Jingshu unhappy, "How do you talk, kid?"

"Don't arrange blind dates for me anymore, or I won't go back for the Spring Festival."

"Are you threatening me by not going home during the Chinese New Year? I don't care if you love to come back or not." Jia Jingshu said angrily, and hung up the phone.

Lu Ran's ears were quieter, but he had an argument with Jia Jingshu, and his mood was extremely depressed.

Previously, Jia Jingshu's attitude had clearly changed. She supported her in pursuing Ji Zebei, even if she was not optimistic, but did not make things difficult for her. Now her attitude has changed 180 degrees, and she has to introduce another man to her.

Do you really think she can't get married?
She looked down at the ring on her ring finger, thinking that one day Ji Zebei would wear the ring and agree to date her.

Ji Zebei would not be so nice to her for no reason, he likes her, maybe he has his own difficulties, when he is mentally prepared, happiness will knock on the door.

Suddenly, a WeChat message came to the phone.

She opened it and looked, it was from Ji Zebei, asking if she was awake.

"woke up."

The other party replied in seconds: "Come over for dinner."

"it is good."

She got dressed and went out, only to find that the door of Ji Zebei's house was ajar, obviously reserved for her.

She pushed open the door and went in. The briquettes came running up and down, rubbing their tails on her legs.

She stretched her neck and glanced at the kitchen, but she didn't see Xu Jiajia.

"Didn't study new dishes today?"

Ji Zebei came out of the bathroom, holding the sleeves of his off-white sweater and muttering, "It's over."

The man took her into the dining room, and several dishes and their tableware were already set on the table.

She pulled out a chair and sat down, watching the man walk into the kitchen and come out with a glass of red in his hand.

"what is that?"

Ji Zebei put the cup in front of her, "Tomato juice."

"..."

"From now on, a glass of tomato juice every day."

Lu Ran smiled wryly, "I'm not sure if tomato juice is really effective in overcoming haemorrhage."

"Try first."

Lu Ran nodded.

The work in the hospital fell through, and she thought about contacting the editor-in-chief of the publishing house introduced to her by Ji Zebei, but she didn't have much confidence.

After the meal, Ji Zebei was going to the store and asked her if she wanted to go together.

She hesitated, smiled and said, "Okay."

Ji Fanzhai's business was much better than Lu Ran imagined, and she knew it was because her last article on Tasting the World had brought Ji Fanzhai popularity and popularity.

Before leaving Taste the World, she finally insisted on doing one thing right.

Seeing the restaurant full of diners, she smiled at Ji Zebei who was sitting opposite her, "How are you going to thank me?"

Ji Zebei looked up at her, "Thank you for what?"

"The business in the store is so good, it's all thanks to me."

"Picking you up to and from get off work, cooking for you, and introducing friends from the publishing house to you, isn't that counted as thanks?"

She chuckled, "I haven't contacted the publishing house yet."

"Contact as soon as possible, and talk as soon as possible, don't delay until the end of the year."

"How about I call now and ask?"

"Ah."

She took out her mobile phone, took out the business card Ji Zebei gave her from her bag, took a deep breath, and pulled out the number on the business card.

The beep sounded for a long time, and the other party picked it up. It was a hoarse middle-aged man's voice, very polite, "Hello."

"Is it Editor-in-Chief Wang?"

"it's me."

"Hi, I'm Lu Ran."

The receiver went blank for a while, and then Wang Hong's voice sounded again: "Xiao Ji's friend who wrote articles?"

"It's me! It's me."

"I have read all your articles, and they are well written."

"You are overrated."

"I didn't expect you to contact me now. If you have time, you can come to the publishing house in the afternoon and we can talk."

"There is time and there is time."

"Can it be before four o'clock?"

"Okay, thank you, editor-in-chief."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Ran was very excited.

Ji Zebei smiled faintly, "Seize the opportunity well."

"How should I thank you?"

"How would you like to thank me?"

"I want to make a promise with my body."

"Irregular!"

Lu Ran scratched his head and muttered in a low voice, "I'm not happy when others want me to agree with you."

"Do you want me to send you to the publishing house?" Ji Zebei changed the subject.

She glanced at the time on her phone, it was almost three o'clock, she shook her head after thinking about it and said, "Forget it, I'll take a taxi by myself."

Ji Zebei: "Good luck."

After leaving Ji Fanzhai, Lu Ran took a taxi and went straight to the address on the business card.

Beiyang Publishing House is located on the third floor of an office building on the South Second Ring Road. The scale is smaller than she imagined, but the office environment is not bad.

She explained her purpose to the receptionist, and the receptionist immediately took her to Wang Hong's office.

Wang Hong is a short, fat, middle-aged man with a beard and a pair of glasses. Behind the lenses are a pair of small eyes that focus on the light.

The man looks very happy, and when he smiles, his face is as round as a watermelon.

"Editor Wang, hello, I'm Lu Ran."

With a modest attitude, Wang Hong shook hands with her, motioned her to sit down, and asked his assistant to pour coffee.

After the assistant delivered the coffee, he closed the office door when he went out.

Lu Ran and Wang Hong sat face to face, holding coffee cups in both hands, and said with a smile: "Editor Wang, I'm here this time..."

Wang Hong raised his hand, interrupted her and said, "I want to know why you were fired by Taste World."

Lu Ran was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Wang Hong to ask about this suddenly.

She had all kinds of reasons brewing in her mind, but in the end she said honestly: "The boss harassed me, and I beat him up."

Wang Hong laughed after listening, "Is the boss you're talking about Cheng Yuan?"

"You know him?"

"He is now the editor-in-chief of Taste World. To tell you the truth, he used to be my editor here and worked under me."

Lu Ran was taken aback, she found that the world is really small.

"That kid was dishonest when he was working here."

Wang Hong was extremely impressed with Cheng Yuan, and of course he also hated Cheng Yuan's behavior.

At the beginning, Cheng Yuan hooked up with his daughter and coaxed her into a circle, and secretly had an unclear relationship with several female colleagues in the publishing house.

As long as he thinks of the days when his daughter was deceived and was dying, he can't wait to eat that kid Cheng Yuan alive.

When Ji Zebei found him, he heard that Lu Ran had worked in Taste World, so he asked why Lu Ran was fired. Ji Zebei didn't elaborate, but asked him to take time to read Lu Ran's article first. .

He has carefully read every article by Lu Ran, and the writing is really good.

Now that he learned that Lu Ran was harassed by Cheng Yuan, he beat up Cheng Yuan in a fit of anger and was fired. He suddenly felt that the little girl in front of him was straightforward, and the more she looked at her, the more likable she became.

"Is it hard?" He asked with a smile.

Lu Ran was stunned, then nodded, "I beat him into a pig's head."
