full-time lovers

Chapter 31 The relationship seems unusual

"What a silly joke!" Ye Zhian glared at her.

She stopped laughing, took out her phone and took a photo of Ye Zhian.

Ye Zhi'an glared at her, "Delete it quickly, don't leave my black history behind."

Lu Ran not only didn't delete it, but also sent him the photo on WeChat. She wanted to send one to Ji Zebei, but she didn't have Ji Zebei's phone number and WeChat ID.

I want to add Ji Zebei as a WeChat friend...

She glanced at Ji Zebei lightly, just as she wanted his WeChat ID, the phone rang suddenly.

Ye Zhi'an was startled by the ringing ringing of the incoming call.

"I'll go, who are you trying to scare to death with this ringtone?"

She laughed, "I'm sleepy, so I chose an exaggerated ringtone."

The caller ID is Editor-in-Chief.

It was only then that she remembered that today was Saturday, and she had an appointment with Editor-in-Chief Cheng, and it was almost six o'clock now.

She hesitated and answered.

"I've already booked the restaurant, do you need me to pick you up?"

She scratched her head and said, "I'm really sorry, I'm not in the city, I can't make it back tonight."

The receiver went blank for a few seconds, and Cheng Yuan's voice sounded again, "Where are you?"

"I'm in Fengshan. I was climbing the mountain with my friends early this morning. It suddenly snowed. Now I'm trapped on the mountain."

"..."

"Editor Cheng, can we make an appointment next time?" She was eager to make an appointment.

If Cheng Yuan hadn't threatened him with the Ji Fanzhai project, she would not have agreed to accompany Cheng Yuan to dinner and movies.

"Are you really in Fengshan?" Cheng Yuan didn't seem to believe it.

She hung up the phone and initiated a video chat with Cheng Yuan on WeChat. The other party answered quickly. After the video connection, she immediately got up and went outside to take pictures of the surrounding environment for Cheng Yuan to see.

"Look, I'm at a farmer's house up in the mountains, and it's snowing heavily outside."

Opposite the video is Cheng Yuan. He has obviously been well-groomed, wearing a suit, and has his hair styled meticulously.

Seeing the environment around Lu Ran and the big red padded coat on Lu Ran's body, Cheng Yuan smiled helplessly, "If that's the case, let's try another day."

"Thank you, editor-in-chief, for understanding."

After hanging up the video, Lu Ran breathed a sigh of relief. The snow outside was getting bigger and bigger. There was already a thin layer of snow on the ground. I don't know when the snow will stop and whether I can go back to the city smoothly tomorrow.

She turned and went back to the house, walked quickly to the little sun, and warmed her slightly frozen red hands.

Ye Zhian looked at her in surprise, "Who do you have an appointment with?"

"The editor-in-chief of our magazine."

"That Editor-in-Chief Cheng is one of your blind dates?"

Lu Ran gave a 'puchi' smile, "No, he is my boss."

"So, you're dating your boss?"

"Not a date." She was forced.

"what is that?"

"He just invited me to dinner and watch a movie."

"Do you believe this?"

"..." Of course she didn't believe it, but she couldn't help it.

She really wants to follow Ji Fanzhai's food topic.

"Is that editor-in-chief Cheng chasing you?"

Lu Ran shook his head, saying it was impossible, and subconsciously glanced at Ji Zebei next to him, the man was very silent, with his hands in his pockets, he sat quietly facing the little sun.

The orange-red light shone on the man's face, making the man's expression soft.

A person with a serious cleanliness obsession loves to be clean at home, but he fell into mud in the wild, why didn't he go crazy and collapse?And now that he was wearing the clothes of the old farmer, he didn't show any dislike.

"Young man, come and help me." The old lady's voice suddenly came from outside.

Ji Zebei got up expressionlessly and walked out.

The old aunt moved a small square table, on which was a pot of freshly brewed hot tea with three small cups.

Ji Zebei directly took over the small table and moved it into the house.

The old lady smiled at the three of them and said, "Are you hungry?"

Lu Ran nodded.

The old aunt said: "I'll get you something to eat right now, wait for a while."

Ye Zhi'an couldn't get used to the dishes cooked by the farmers, so he dragged Ji Zebei to follow the old lady to the kitchen, and Lu Ran followed curiously.

Two professional chefs will cook with the ingredients they have at the moment.

The two cooperated perfectly, and they were very good at knife skills. They fried a few dishes after three times and five times. They are full of praise.

Ye Zhi'an laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth, but Ji Zebei who was beside him was unusually silent. He lowered his head and ate slowly, his brows were furrowed, and he looked unhappy.

Lu Ran picked out an egg for him and put it in the bowl, but he picked it out with disgust and threw it into Ye Zhian's bowl.

Lu Ran: ...

Is it so disrespectful?

The atmosphere was suddenly awkward.

Lu Ran coughed lightly and murmured, "It's delicious."

After dinner, she helped the old lady clean up the dining table and wanted to help wash the dishes, but the old lady insisted that she not touch the water in the cold weather.

When she returned to the room, Ji Zebei and Ye Zhian were sitting in front of Little Sun, drinking tea leisurely.

Ji Zebei's face was still gloomy, Lu Ran didn't understand what happened to him all of a sudden?It was fine before.

"You find a way, find a car to pick us up early in the morning." Ye Zhian said to Ji Zebei in a discussing tone.

Ji Zebei was silent for a while, took out his mobile phone and dialed a number, told the person on the other end of the phone to come to Fengshan early tomorrow morning to pick him up, and then hung up.

"Who did you call? A man or a woman?" Ye Zhian asked excitedly.

"Xu Jiajia."

"Is she still following you?"

Ji Zebei nodded, and said indifferently: "She is now the chef of Ji Fanzhai."

Ye Zhi'an's eyes widened and he exclaimed, "Fuck! How did you do it?"

"what?"

"A Western food chef opened a Chinese restaurant after returning to China, and trained an assistant who also learned Western food to become a Chinese food chef. How did you do it?"

Ji Zebei: ...

Although they studied Western food, they are Chinese after all. They have been fascinated by Chinese food since they were young. Ji Zebei actually prefers Chinese food, so after returning to China, he studied Chinese food for a while and opened a Chinese restaurant.

The business was a bit bleak, but it was much better than he expected. Since its opening, Ji Fanzhai has cultivated a group of loyal regular customers.

Furthermore, he is not short of money, even if Ji Fanzhai's business has been losing money, so what?He just wants to do something willful to make himself happy.

Lu Ran sat aside and poured herself a cup of tea. She held the cup to warm her hands, but couldn't get in the conversation.

However, she remembered the name 'Xu Jiajia'.

It seems to be someone who is very familiar with Ji Zebei, and Ye Zhian also knows this person.

"Lu Ran, you haven't met Xu Jiajia yet, have you?" Ye Zhian asked her suddenly.

She muffled 'um'.

"It happens that she will pick us up tomorrow. Let's get to know each other."

"……Oh."

People who haven't met Xu Jiajia yet, she already has a sense of distance and uneasiness towards Xu Jiajia. Thinking of the conversation between Ye Zhian and Ji Zebei just now, she feels that the relationship between Xu Jiajia and Ji Zebei seems unusual.
