Chapter 230

"Are you as superstitious as my mother?" she asked back.

He smiled heavily, "Of course not."

She fell silent and continued to rub his shoulders for him. After more than ten minutes, he thought she would not answer the question just now, but she suddenly said: "I'm not afraid, not at all."

He shook the soft little hand on his shoulder, and said calmly: "Okay, you can go to eat."

"Are your shoulders still sore?"

He shook his head.

She withdrew her hand and walked quickly towards the kitchen.

After eating, she came to the living room, where Ji Zebei was reading a book.

She walked over, sat down beside him, leaned her head on his shoulder, and picked up the mobile phone that had been thrown on the sofa before and looked at it. messages.

Clicking on the news, it was all Jia Jingshu's words to persuade her to think twice, hoping that she would break up with Ji Zebei.

Seeing these messages from Jia Jingshu, for a moment, she really wanted to blacklist Jia Jingshu...

"Don't look at it." Ji Zebei said.

She nodded, put down her phone, took Ji Zebei's arm and murmured softly, "I won't stay tonight."

Ji Zebei was a little surprised, "Why?"

"The novel promised to be edited by Wang Hong is not finished yet."

Ji Zebei murmured thoughtfully, lowered his head and kissed her on the cheek, and said softly, "Then you go back."

Lu Ran got up, and found that Ji Zebei's gaze had returned to the book in his hand and did not look at her.

"Good night," she said.

Ji Zebei replied good night, but still did not look up at her.

She touched Briquette's head, picked up her phone and keys, and left.

When she got home, she went into the study, turned on the computer, and sent the written outline of the story, the introduction of the characters, and the text of the novel with [-] words to the mailbox of Editor-in-Chief Wang.

Regardless of whether the novel could meet the standards for publication in the end, she decided to finish writing it.

After the email was successfully sent, she got up and went to the kitchen, made a cup of coffee, took a plate of biscuits back to the study, and continued to create with the computer.

She was busy until one o'clock in the morning, and she couldn't bear it anymore. After saving the manuscript, she turned off the computer and walked out of the study while stretching.

After a brief wash, she climbed onto the bed.

Before going to bed, she glanced at her cell phone. Since the cell phone was on silent, she realized that Meng Yi had called her about an hour ago.

She probably guessed that Meng Yi called to help Jia Jingshu as a lobbyist, and it was so late now that she didn't return the call.

After setting the alarm clock, she canceled the silent mode of her mobile phone, got into the quilt, and fell asleep soon.

Early the next morning, Ji Zebei prepared breakfast as usual, and after she finished eating, he drove her to taste the world.

As soon as she entered the company and punched her card, her phone rang loudly.

It was Meng Yi who called.

She picked it up, and without waiting for Meng Yi to speak, she rushed to say: "If my mother asked you to persuade me, then you don't need to say anything."

The receiver went blank for a while, and Meng Yi laughed helplessly, "Your mother did call me and asked me to persuade you."

"It's your mother again?"

"Our mother." Meng Yi corrected with a smile.

"Then are you going to persuade me?"

"I think our mother is a little superstitious."

"She is not only superstitious, she is simply too superstitious, she believes everything liars say."

"Actually, you don't need to pay too much attention to her words. Although she is worried about you and afraid that things will not go well with you and Ji Zebei, as long as it is your choice, I, as a friend, will of course support you."

Lu Ran was suddenly touched, "Good sister."

"Let's have dinner together in the evening and have a drink by the way?"

"Row."

After making an appointment to meet at a time and place, Lu Ran hung up the phone and walked towards his place with his bag.

The newcomer, Shen Qiu, was sitting opposite Su Ge. She was dressed very fashionable, with delicate and gorgeous makeup. Her arrival almost attracted the attention of all the male colleagues.

When passing by Su Ge, Lu Ran smelled a faint scent of perfume. Before Shen Qiu came to work here, there was no such scent. Obviously, the scent of perfume belonged to Shen Qiu.

Xiao Zhang, who has been single for many years, is young, in his early thirties, but the top of his head is already bald, and his small eyes focus on Shen Qiu without blinking.

Lu Ran sat down in his seat, and suddenly saw Xiao Zhang standing up. The man dragged his fat body and went straight to the tea room. After a while, he came out with a pot of freshly brewed coffee in his hand. He walked up to Shen Qiu in a fart, and poured a cup of coffee for Shen Qiu.

"Xiao Shen, you just came here, so feel free to ask me if you don't understand anything." Xiao Zhang said flatteringly, his chubby face was about to die of laughter.

Shen Qiu responded with a smile, "Thank you Brother Zhang."

This 'Brother Zhang' made Xiao Zhang's face turn red, "Don't be so polite with me, we are all colleagues."

Xiao Zhang's behavior was stared at by several other male colleagues, and then several male colleagues took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Shen Qiu, and even started chatting.

Lu Ran noticed that although Shen Qiu was smiling and chatting with his male colleagues, his eyes were looking at Su Ge from time to time.

However, Su Ge's attention was always on his work, and he didn't even look at Shen Qiu.

Shen Qiu seemed a little disappointed, and said very loudly: "To tell you the truth, I opened a barbecue restaurant, and I'm treating guests tonight, everyone come."

The male colleagues were instantly excited and nodded in agreement.

Just at this time Liang Man came and heard everyone talking about going to Shen Qiu's barbecue restaurant for dinner, so he suggested on a whim: "It seems that our department has never had a dinner together, why don't we have a dinner together tonight, let's stop by Shen Qiu The store takes care of her business?"

"I won't go, I have an appointment with a friend tonight." Lu Ran said.

Liang Man: "It's rare to have dinner together, so you can come together."

"I really have an appointment."

Lu Ran picked up her bag, brought her camera and planned to go out to work, looking for food materials, Liang Man reminded her: "There is a program recording this afternoon, Shen Qiu is going to the recording site for the first time, you will take her as a senior."

"no problem."

"One more thing, come with me." Liang Man said in a low voice.

She nodded and followed Liang Man into the office.

After closing the office door, Liang Man said bluntly: "It's like this. It's been a while since Sophie left. The food show has hired a well-known local host. Ji Zebei's false reports have also been clarified. In the last meeting, considering the ratings issue, the executives wanted to invite Ji Zebei to appear on the gourmet show as a special guest again."

"You want me to be a lobbyist again?"

Liang Man smiled wryly, "There is no way, the higher-ups mean, I just want to convey a message to you."

"When he was on Top Search, the company simply terminated his contract. I don't think he will come to our show again."

"On condition that Ji Zebei can open."

"No matter how good the conditions are, he probably won't come."
