Chapter 79

After eating, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening, Meng Yi drove Lu Ran to the apartment downstairs, Lu Ran thanked her, and went home obediently.

Before entering the house, a new message came to her WeChat. When she clicked on it, it was from Ji Zebei, asking where she had been.

He would ask this, probably because he came to look for her.

She put down her bag, and replied first: "I went to dinner with my friends tonight."

The other party replied in seconds: "Come here."

"Oh."

Thinking that Ji Zebei wanted her to shovel the cat's shit again, she went out with her keys and mobile phone, and knocked on the door next door.

After waiting for a few seconds, Ji Zebei came to open the door.

"Missing me since I haven't seen you all afternoon?" She raised an eyebrow at Ji Zebei and smiled.

The man was in good spirits, as if he didn't hear her, he said flatly, "Come in first."

He let her into the room sideways, took her hand gently, and led her towards the kitchen.

She lowered her eyes and watched the man hold her hand tightly, her heart was as sweet as eating honey.

In my impression, this seemed to be the first time Ji Zebei took the initiative to hold her hand.

"Mr. Ji, haven't you had dinner yet?"

"Ate."

At the door of the kitchen, the man stopped suddenly.

"Close your eyes."

She looked puzzled: "What are you doing with your eyes closed?"

"Shut up."

"Oh."

She closed her eyes obediently, the man let go of her hand, walked behind her, gently held her shoulder, and slowly led her into the kitchen, directly to the counter.

There was a bowl of chicken blood on the desk. After Ji Zebei woke up, he asked the chef in the shop to kill a chicken and made a special trip to bring it. The blood was still fresh.

"Ready for the thrill?"

Lu Ran smiled wryly, "What have you prepared?"

Ji Zebei was speechless, feeling a little uncertain.

He wasn't sure whether it was good or bad for Lu Ran to face the bowl of blood directly, but he checked a lot of information on the Internet, and it was said that if he wanted to overcome the bloodsickness, he had to face the blood directly.

"Did you prepare any surprises for me?"

"No." It should have been more of a shock to her.

"It's not a surprise that you let me close my eyes?"

Lu Ran was suddenly a little nervous, took a deep breath, and smelled a faint fishy smell.

"What's that smell?" Kind of like blood.

Ji Zebei subconsciously grasped her shoulders, "Are you ready?"

Her heart was pounding, and she felt more and more the smell of blood in her nostrils. This feeling made her flustered and felt uncomfortable. She subconsciously backed away and accidentally stepped on Ji Zebei's foot.

Hearing a 'hiss' from the man behind her, she hurriedly took a few steps forward, her knee bumped into something, and it hurt.

She opened her eyes and reached out to rub her kneecaps, but her face was almost plunged into a bowl of bright red blood.

His eyes were bloodshot, and the smell of blood instantly filled his brain.

She only felt dizzy for a while, and then she didn't know anything.

When she woke up, she was lying on the sofa in the living room, and Ji Zebei was sitting aside, looking at her solemnly.

Before she could recover, the man first apologized: "I'm sorry, there may be something wrong with my method."

She could not laugh or cry.

Called her here specifically to show her the bowl of blood?

"I want to help you overcome the bloodsickness."

She calmed down, sat up slowly, and said in a discussing tone, "Can I start with tomato juice?"

"Are you sure drinking tomato juice is useful?"

"I heard it's useful."

The man was silent for a few seconds and asked her, "Do you want to drink now?"

She shook her head violently.

As soon as she recovered, she was afraid that when she saw the tomato juice, she would think of the bowl of blood.

"To overcome fainting, the key is to relax, you are too nervous." Ji Zebei's expression remained serious.

She sighed, "It's too difficult for me."

Ji Zebei had nothing to say.

He got up and walked into the bathroom, took out a towel and handed it to the person on the sofa, "Wipe off your sweat."

Lu Ran awkwardly took the towel and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"You take a break, before you go, remember to shovel out the cat shit." After the man finished speaking, he went to the kitchen to dispose of the bowl of chicken blood.

Lu Ran sat on the sofa in a daze, realizing that the man who came to her actually wanted her to shovel shit.

After finishing her work, when she was about to leave, Ji Zebei stopped her and asked her: "You beat your boss, will it affect your work?"

"Already fired."

"..."

"By the way, how much is your car maintenance cost?"

Ji Zebei didn't want to talk about this topic, he never planned to let Lu Ran take it from the very beginning.

"The insurance company hasn't called yet."

Lu Ran said 'oh' thoughtfully, seeing that the man seemed to have nothing else to say, she went home directly.

The next day, she prepared breakfast and lunch for Ji Zebei as usual.

She asked him what he wanted to eat at night, but he said, "I have something to do tonight, don't worry about me."

After lunch, she finished cleaning the kitchen and bathroom. She didn't see anyone from Ji Zebei in the living room, so she yelled, "Mr. Ji, if there is nothing else, I'll go back first."

A man's voice came from the study, "Thank you."

At this time, Ji Zebei was searching for the company address of Tasting World Magazine on the computer, and wrote down the address. He went out at four o'clock in the afternoon and drove straight to Tasting World.

Parking the car in the parking space outside the office building where Tasting World is located, he raised his wrist and glanced at his watch, it was only 04:30.

He sat in the car and waited patiently for half an hour, only to see people coming out of the building one after another.

It's time to get off work.

He fixed his gaze on the direction of the main entrance, and after a short while, he saw a man wearing sunglasses walking out of it.

The man's face was still a little swollen, and there was a Band-Aid on his forehead.

He once met Cheng Yuan in the mall, and with his excellent memory, he immediately recognized that person as Cheng Yuan.

Seeing Cheng Yuan getting into a car and driving away, he started the car and followed without a moment's hesitation.

Cheng Yuan first went to a community, picked up a young woman, and then drove to a restaurant.

It is a very high-end western restaurant.

Seeing the woman holding Cheng Yuan's arm, the two entered the restaurant in an intimate manner. Ji Zebei parked the car and followed in.

He deliberately chose the seat next to Cheng Yuan and the woman at the table, and Cheng Yuan's seat was back to back.

After ordering the meal, he called Ye Zhian and invited him to have dinner.

Ye Zhi'an was worried about not knowing what to eat at night, so he rushed over as soon as he received his call.

"What day is it today, you suddenly invited me to dinner." Ye Zhian smiled at him playfully.

He responded with a smile, "Eating alone is boring, so I asked you to come and accompany me."

While chatting with Ye Zhian, he listened to the conversation between Cheng Yuan and the woman at the next table.

"Cheng Yuan, I wanted to ask you just now, what happened to your face? Was it beaten?"

Cheng Yuan chuckled and said, "I accidentally dropped it."

"It doesn't look like it fell."

"It fell!"
