Chapter 288: Time as Matchmaker, the Rest of Life as Engagement
"Of course, you're on TV, brat."
Zheng Jiaxin, who was wrapped in a small quilt, turning on the electric heater, and curled up on the sofa watching TV, couldn't help but take out her mobile phone to call Chen Jianghe, the president of the Light Chaser Company, when she saw him appear in front of the camera.
"What do you think, auntie? Am I handsome on TV?" Chen Jianghe asked with a smile, breathing out cold air.
"He is indeed very handsome, but his screen time is too short."
Zheng Jiaxin praised excitedly, and then asked: "I don't understand why you wear a mask when you are interviewed?"
"Of course it's to protect myself. I heard that some places have started arresting handsome guys. Those who are average looking will be sentenced to three to five years, and those who are particularly handsome will be sentenced to ten years. People like me will probably be shot on the spot if they are caught." Chen Jianghe talked nonsense seriously on the phone.
Zheng Jiaxin was amused by him and laughed out loud. She covered her lips and laughed and scolded: "You are a narcissist."
“But you have to be careful when delivering food outside. The roads are slippery in rainy days, so pay attention to safety.” Zheng Jiaxin reminded again.
"Okay, got it." Chen Jianghe responded with a smile: "Anything else?"
"I knitted a sweater for you. Come and get it when you have time." said Zheng Jiaxin.
"You didn't use it to wipe your feet this time?" Chen Jianghe asked.
"Didn't you say you didn't mind?" Zheng Jiaxin asked back.
"Although I don't mind, I'm afraid you may have athlete's foot." Chen Jianghe chuckled.
"You have athlete's foot." Zheng Jiaxin snorted and retorted: "I won't talk to you anymore. Every time I call you, I get angry."
"You were obviously laughing happily just now." Chen Jianghe said, "If you don't want to talk to me, forget it. Give the phone to Yishu. I'll chat with her for 50 cents."
" What did you say? Ha, the signal at home is not good. Oh, it's a bit windy outside, I can't hear you clearly..."
Beep beep beep.
The phone was hung up.
"You are so good, Zheng Jiaxin, you failed at the critical moment..."
Chen Jianghe shook his head helplessly. He wanted to call Yishu, but he received several urgent messages on his phone, so he had to continue working.
On January 15, Chen Jianghe took a break from his busy schedule and went to see Yang Wanqing.
At eight o'clock the next evening, in Room 711 of the female dormitory building of Guangdong University of Finance, Lin Siqi was surrounded by five roommates and returned to the dormitory from the Light Chaser base.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard the clear and pleasant sound of wind chimes, and then someone lit a candle.
In the candlelight, Lin Siqi saw a variety of gifts and a radio that looked a little old on her desk.
Liu Ziyu walked to the table and reached out to press the play button on the radio.
"Nothing can compare to the beauty of this night, and nothing can make me appreciate it more, because you sing with me tonight..."
"Thousands of Songs", released by Priscilla Chan in 1989, is Lin Siqi's favorite song.
Liu Ziyu smiled at the cute Lin Daiyu, raised her hand and directed her roommates and the female students from other dormitories who had heard the news: "One, two, three, sing!"
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you~~"
The girls sang Happy Birthday together, and Lin Siqi, who had been so busy with work and reviewing that she had forgotten that today was her birthday, was so moved that she burst into tears.
"The cake is here."
The girl from the next door dormitory came to the 711 dormitory with a cake in her hand and said in a translator's voice: "Oh, my dear Lin Daiyu, please close your eyes and make a wish."
"Thank you, everyone."
Lin Siqi wanted to laugh and cry at the same time. She sniffed, closed her eyes, made a wish, and then blew out the candles on the cake in one breath.
At this time, the cell phone rang. Lin Siqi took out his phone and looked at the caller ID: Boss.
"I'm going to take a call."
Lin Siqi said something to everyone, then quietly walked to the balcony, pressed the answer button, and called out sweetly: "Boss~"
"Are you in the office?" Chen Jianghe asked.
"I have something to do and went back to the dormitory. I'll be there soon." Lin Siqi replied softly.
"Don't worry, I'll find you downstairs of the girls' dormitory." Chen Jianghe said.
Lin Siqi blinked and asked, "Aren't you going to the train station tonight?"
"I've almost finished what I need to do. I want to spend some time with my secretary tonight," said Chen Jianghe.
"Yeah!" Lin Siqi happily turned around and responded with a smile: "Then come quickly, I'll wait for you."
"Okay, I'll be there right away."
Chen Jianghe responded, and less than fifteen minutes after hanging up the phone, he drove to the bottom of the girls' dormitory.
Lin Siqi was standing at the dormitory door waiting.
“Get in the car!”
Chen Jianghe smiled and waved at her.
"Here I come."
When Lin Siqi heard Chen Jianghe's voice , he immediately ran towards him like a rabbit.
Lin Siqi really looked like a rabbit tonight, because she was wearing a pink fleece rabbit sweatshirt with two rabbit ears on her hat. When she ran, her ears moved with the wind, which looked very cute.
"Are you cold?"
After Lin Siqi got into the car, Chen Jianghe reached out and held her hand, and found that it was quite warm.
"It's not cold at all."
Lin Siqi shook her head, put Chen Jianghe's palm into her sweater, smiled sweetly and said, "I'll warm you up."
"Take you somewhere."
Chen Jianghe steered the wheel with one hand and turned the BYD into a Ferrari.
"Boss, I want to change your car."
Lin Siqi said with a smile as the car drove out of the school gate.
"Oh?" Chen Jianghe raised his eyebrows.
Lin Siqi took out a bank card from her purse: "The salary and bonus you gave me, as well as my annual New Year's money, are all in this card. I should be able to buy a nice car."
"The focus should be on the New Year's money, right?"
Chen Jianghe smiled and asked, "Is BYD not good?"
"BYD is pretty good." Lin Siqi agreed with a smile, looking at Chen Jianghe with curved eyebrows: "But my boss is so handsome, he should drive a better car."
"What a sweet mouth." Chen Jianghe glanced at the secretary and praised in a low voice.
"I just had some dessert, do you want to try it?" Lin Siqi took a sip.
"Try it later."
Chen Jianghe accepted the challenge with a smile and sped towards tonight's destination.
"Boss, are you taking me to see the show?"
As the car drove into Ersha Island, Lin Siqi looked at the brightly lit Xinghai Concert Hall standing not far away and asked with some surprise.
“Not watching the show.”
Chen Jianghe drove the car into the residential area on the island and stopped in front of a villa. He opened the car door and got out. He took out a bunch of keys and handed them to Lin Siqi: "This house is my birthday gift to you. Go open the door and see if you like it."
Lin Siqi was stunned .
I thought that the boss had been working on the front line of disaster relief with his team recently and was so busy every day that he would definitely not remember her birthday. I didn't expect that he had already prepared for it.
"Hey, I knew you didn't like this kind of fancy stuff."
Seeing the secretary standing there in a daze, Chen Jianghe deliberately put the key back in his pocket, turned around, took out a red document from the car and handed it to her.
"What's this?"
Lin Siqi came to his senses and asked curiously.
"Open it and take a look."
Chen Jianghe handed her the document solemnly and said, "I asked an old gentleman to help write it. I don't know the specific content myself."
"Oh, let me take a look first."
Lin Siqi gladly took it, opened it, and suddenly his eyes lit up:
"Time is the matchmaker, the rest of my life is the betrothal gift, I will hold your hand and grow old with you."
