Dear Chen Jiu

Chapter 78

The two months at the end of the year were extremely busy. We had to prepare for the school final exam and went on a long-distance business trip with Alex.

When I finally get my graduation certificate, I can get a full-time job.

As for Christmas in the middle, when Lao Xiao offered to come to Jiangzhou to help me celebrate my birthday, I refused on the grounds that I was busy with work.

That day was not the day I was born, so the sense of ritual is no longer important.

"Damn, what a bloody drama."

As soon as he pushed open the door of the cafe, he saw Yan Xu lying on the table, angrily talking to the phone screen.

"What are you looking at?" I asked casually.

"Tv, what do you want to drink?" Seeing me entering the door, Yan Xu got up immediately.

Yan Xu sold this bookstore in a remote alley at the end of last month. Having had enough of being bossed around by unscrupulous bosses, he simply resigned, changed his face, and opened this coffee shop.

"Before, I always heard you complain that you get together less and leave more with your partner. From now on, if you guard this store, you won't be able to leave."

Yan Xu's store is in the trial opening period, and it is closed every Sunday afternoon, so today I specially invited me to come over to try his handicrafts.

"Hey, my partner just got a job transfer order last month, so he will stay in Jiangzhou from now on."

Yan Xu stood in front of the coffee machine and said proudly.

I nodded, "It's good, it's always different places that really affect feelings."

"Hey," Yan Xu hurriedly made a cup of coffee, "I haven't asked you yet, what's going on with you two now, don't hide it.

By the way, do you want to help you draw a flower on it? "

Speaking of which...

Two months ago in the office, after I knew that Chen Jiu knew the real relationship between my uncle and me, I asked him the last question, if I hadn't returned to China, would he and his fiancée really get married.

Chen Jiu probably didn't expect me to ask such a question, but his eyes gave me a positive answer.

I think he has never been obsessed with marriage, let alone caring about other people's opinions.

Because of this, when Nanqiao proposed to find someone to marry his sister by agreement, Chen Jiucheng was the best choice.

I was terrified in my heart, but I still jokingly said, Nanqiao saved your life, right?

"The establishment of an architectural firm requires that one of the partners have more than ten years of experience in the industry."

Chen Jiu talked to me about science in a serious manner, but I understood it instantly, so Nanqiao contributed a lot to the establishment of this firm.

It was also he who pulled Chen Jiu out of his own company to work alone and jointly opened this architectural firm.

In a sense, he is Chen Jiu's bole.

No wonder Chen Jiu agreed to Nanqiao, a marriage in exchange for the best interests of Nanqiao and his sister in the family, and at the same time repay the debt of favor.

But having said that, Chen Jiu probably has never seriously thought about who he wants to marry, so marriage is completely dispensable to him.

I was suddenly no longer in a hurry to pierce the window paper.

I think the beginning of a relationship should have a solid foundation and trust should be the cornerstone.

Chen Jiu five years ago didn't believe my feelings for him, I was naive, impulsive, and didn't think much about things...

Everything I have is based on the fact that I am Gu Chengwang's son.

I even faced my uncle's 'threat' without the ability to resist.

So this time, there is no need to rush to make the iron tree bloom.

As long as I take good care of it and the time is right, it will always have a chance to open up.

At least I know that in Chen Jiu's eyes, I am different from others.

"good."

I shrugged, but there was uncontrollable joy in my words.

How could I ever have thought that Chen Jiu actually has feelings for me, even if the feelings are not as much as I give, but for a person like him, the weight is enough.

"Tsk tsk tsk, come on, your face is full of joy."

I looked at the coffee cup that Yan Xu handed over, and this man actually made me a very rustic big love flower with a circle of leaves around it.

"Good workmanship."

I boasted against my will.

"Really, then bring a glass to your brother when you leave."

To say this title, at the beginning it was purely to save trouble, for fear of causing unnecessary trouble.

But listening to Yan Xu's words now, it still seems a bit like fate.

"Of course," I scooped up the heart on the coffee with a spoon, and took a sip, "but I'll make it myself."

"You... can't save you."

Yan Xu slapped the rag on the table angrily.

One afternoon, I played jokes with Yan Xu, listened to his gossip about his college classmates, and learned the art of latte art by the way...

"Okay, let's leave it at that, even if you say it's love, you can barely recognize it."

He turned on the phone, "Stay here for dinner, my partner will be off work in a while."

"No," I got up and put on my coat, "You accompany your partner to dinner, and I will pick my partner up from get off work."

***

I took the study results of the afternoon and carefully got into the car.

Today is Sunday, and the office came with a big order temporarily, but Chen Jiu had to work overtime on the rare rest day.

After getting out of the car, I took my coffee and went straight up to the second floor.

"Brother, Mr. Chen has just finished his work, so he can go back now."

The assistant is now accustomed to seeing me, and has become a lot more familiar with my address.

"Okay, hard work."

Pushing open the door of Chen Jiu's office, he was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and making a phone call.

"Then next Sunday night."

It's over, the rare day of getting along with each other will shrink again.

I sat on the chair in front of Chen Jiu's desk, holding coffee and waiting for him.

In the past two months, as long as it is his rest time, I will always find various reasons to meet him.

We eat together, watch movies together...

He also allowed me to occasionally exercise the right to be a prospective boyfriend, such as sitting on the sofa and letting me take the initiative to receive a long kiss, but I accepted it as soon as I saw it.

If the impatience scares people away, the loss outweighs the gain.

Today I originally made an appointment to go to my house for dinner and check on the safety, but it was delayed because of work.

I was wondering when the matter of cohabitation could be put on the agenda, or else the pitiful little meeting time would be compressed again.

I'm angry...

I didn't wake up from the dislocation until Chen Jiu knocked on the table.

"Things settled?" I smiled and looked up at him.

"Ah."

Chen Jiu said calmly.

"Then let's go eat."

As soon as I got up, I saw the coffee that had just been placed on the table.

In fact, this cup of coffee is not satisfactory in terms of taste or craftsmanship. I used to think that I wanted to give Chen Jiu the best.

But now, I just want to simply share some trivial things in life with him, even if there are many imperfections, such as this cup of love latte art coffee that failed.

Chen Jiu obviously noticed it too, and I opened the lid of the coffee.

"I went to Yan Xu to learn how to make it today. Does this love look good?"

Chen Jiu raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard the words, obviously feeling unbelievable.

Well, originally it still had a shape, but bumps were inevitable along the way, and now it is indeed difficult to discern the original shape.

"Well, do you want to try it?"

He looked at the cup of love coffee that had long been deformed, and frowned slightly.

In the end, I still didn't quite believe in my craftsmanship. I held his wrist before he was about to reach out, "Forget it, we'll live together in the future, I'll make you hot coffee every day, and you won't drink this cup when it's cold."

I took the opportunity to speak out what was on my mind, and then watched his reaction.

There was no change on his face when he heard those two words.

But slowly leaning forward...

No way, this is in the office, and my heartbeat is gradually accelerating.

Then, he just walked past me and picked up the car keys that were on the table...
