“He and I were just talking about work.” Qi Huan didn’t hear, and just after explaining, she froze again. “What did you just say?”
Qu Jianshen pursed his lips and finally sighed, “I didn’t say anything.”
Qi Huan saw that Qu Jianshen looked a little off, so she subconsciously explained: “Senior is just a senior. It won’t turn into any other relationship on top of that. He took care of me when I was in college, so I couldn’t just avoid him and not answer the phone, right? “
After she finished, she suddenly felt like a girlfriend who was explaining a misunderstanding to her boyfriend.
When she thought about it, Qi Huan’s cheeks could not help but heat up a bit.
Qu Jianshen’s lips curled up slightly as his mood cleared, but he said, “I heard that Xu Muqing is the vice president of Hong Sheng, so there must be a special person in charge of your project. It’s strange for him to report to you like this. A man who has been looking for you under the pretext of work has always harboured evil intentions. “
“Senior has confessed his love to me.” Qi Huan calmly stated the truth.
Qu Jianshen instantly tensed up, “When? What did you say? How did you reply?”

She understood. He was rich and willful.
Qu Jianshen’s lips curved and he said with a smile, “I’ll help you film and TV your comics when the time comes.”
Qi Huan had to admit that she was shamefully tempted.
***
The next day.
Qu Jianyi came to the door with a gift.
“Sister Huanhuan, if it weren’t for you, I might not be able to do what I like!” She threw herself directly into Qi Huan’s arms.
Qi Huan pursed her lips and said, “Just don’t start rumours next time.”
Qu Jianyi naturally knew what was going on. She let go of her arms, looked at Qi Huan and smiled: “I was thinking wrong at the time. Why do you think my brother would speak in that tone? That must be tricky. Ah! Saying that sentence again is sure to evoke reverie, isn’t it?”
Qi Huan nodded: “So it’s still Qu Jianshen’s fault.”
“Exactly!” Qu Jianyi quickly changed the subject and handed the gift she bought to Qi Huan, “The latest perfume, or Sister Huanhuan’s favourite grapefruit scent. I grabbed it by the speed of my hand!”
Qi Huan was a little surprised when she saw that it was her favourite brand. “I remember that this is a limited edition. I forgot to set the alarm clock to grab it that day, and I regretted it. I didn’t expect you to grab it. “
“Take it, Sister Huanhuan.” Qu Jianyi said with a smile, ” This is my thank you gift to Sister Huanhuan. Without Sister Huanhuan, there wouldn’t be the current Qu Jianyi!”
Qi Huan couldn’t help but laugh, “Since you have time today, I’ll call Xia Xia and we’ll celebrate for you together.”
“Sure!”
When they got to the hotpot restaurant, they chatted while eating.
Qu Jianyi looked around and was a little surprised. “There’s such a delicious hot pot restaurant in Xichuan. How come I didn’t know about it? “
“It was found by Xia Xia. She loves it the most.” Qi Huan laughed.
Jiang Ruixia pointed to the shop across the street, which was still being renovated, and said, “I opened the coffee shop opposite the hot pot shop, so I’ll come straight over for hot pot as soon as I have a break.”
“I’ll make sure all my classmates come and patronise Sister Xia Xia’s coffee shop!” Qu Jianyi said.
Jiang Ruixia clinked glasses with her, “We also deliver takeaways. Students from Xichuan University are potential customers. You can help us promote it.”
Qu Jianyi made an OK gesture, “No problem.”
The café was invested by Qi Huan and Jiang Ruixia was in charge of the management. Although the renovation had only just started, Jiang Ruixia had already thought about what kind of coffee shop she wanted to open, so she was particularly energetic.
“I now realise that I’m really happy to have got rid of the annoying A-party.” Jiang Ruixia pointed at her hair and said, “See, I think my hair has grown back.”
Qi Huan and Qu Jianyi looked at each other and also laughed in unison at those words.
“Speaking of which, Sister Huanhuan and I have loved these shops since we were kids. My brother seems to be reluctant to set foot anywhere else except for five-star hotels and high-end restaurants.” Qu Jianyi remembered that she had once ordered takeaway and was looked at with contempt by Qu Jianshen, “He doesn’t understand how delicious these things are.”
Jiang Ruoxia nodded along, “Indeed, Qu Jianshen fits my imaginary image of a rich man, the unattainable kind.”
Qi Huan was stunned and subconsciously defended Qu Jianshen, “It’s not like he doesn’t eat anything at all.”
“Really?” Qu Jianyi doubted it, “I haven’t seen my brother eat it.”
Qi Huan just wanted to tell her that she and Qu Jianshen had eaten the brisket rice next to the junior high school, but for fear of being coaxed, she hurriedly kept her mouth shut.
“I think my brother’s life is too boring. I can’t stand it if I have to live like him.” Qu Jianyi immediately shook her head.
Qi Huan’s mind drifted away, and she couldn’t help but think about filling out the forms after the college entrance exam.
“Qu Jianshen, what major do you want to choose? I’m so torn; I want to choose art, design, and jewellery!”
“It would be nice to be able to look at shiny jewellery and study it every day! My mum says I should follow my own preferences, but I like so much!”
“I remember you said you were interested in studying medicine. Are you going to enrol in that? “
Qu Jianshen shook his head gently and said, with a light expression, “I’ll choose financial management.”
Qi Huan was slightly stunned and asked, “Why?”
“Because He-Yuan needs it.” Qu Jianshen replied.
Qi Huan was still immersed in her memories and did not come out. Qu Jianyi and Jiang Ruixia also called out to her several times.
“What are you thinking about? If you don’t eat, we’ll all finish eating.” Jiang Ruixia said with a smile.
Qi Huan pursed her lips, “I’m not thinking about anything. Let’s continue eating.”
***
A few meetings ended before Qu Jianshen rubbed his brow and returned to the office.
“Boss, we’re going to have dinner with President Qiyang Ye in the evening. I heard that he has always been a drinker and likes to talk about business at the wine table. Would you like to bring a few more people from the business department?” Xu Ling asked.
Qu Jianshen laughed helplessly, “Then call a few more people and look for those who can drink.”
Xu Ling nodded and immediately went to send a message.
On Qi Huan’s side, she said goodbye to Jiang Ruixia and Qu Jianyi. She took out her phone, and for a while, her finger hesitated on Qu Jianshen’s chat history page.
Finally, she couldn’t resist sending a message.
[Qi Huan]: What are you doing?
[Qu Jianshen]: Drinking.
Qi Huan was also a little surprised when he returned quickly, but he was a little confused when he saw the answer.
She hurriedly called his phone, and it picked up quickly, but Qu Jianshen didn’t make a sound right away.
Qi Huan heard a noisy background tone.
“Jianshen, I’ve met my match today. Every one of your employees can drink more than the other! “
“President Ye’s drinking capacity is really powerful. Many against one is nothing to be proud of.”
“These conditions you put forward today are definitely beneficial to Qi Yang. Are you really willing to give up so much?”
“Qi Yang has the most advanced technology. He-Yuan is just the icing on the cake.”
“Fine, fine, let’s talk about the cooperation in detail when we find a chance.”
“……”
Qi Huan didn’t dare speak until the voices over there dwindled until they dissipated.
She heard the sound of the car door closing up, and then she heard Qu Jianshen’s deep breathing.
Qi Huan spoke worriedly, “Qu Jianshen, are you alright?”
“Yes, I’ve had a few more drinks.” Qu Jianshen spoke with a light smile.
Qi Huan muttered in a small voice, “So it’s because of work drinking, ah?”
“You think I’m out enjoying myself?” Qu Jianshen laughed helplessly.
Qi Huan felt a bit guilty. She really thought so at first, “Then you should go back early and rest. The feeling of drinking too much wine can be unpleasant. I do know that!”
Qu Jianshen lowered the car window. His originally irritable heart, for some reason, eased a lot. He curved his lips: “You call it too much even if you drink two or three glasses?”
“Are you looking down on people?” Qi Huan puffed out, “That’s all I can drink.”
Qu Jianshen laughed, “Since you know you can’t hold your liquor, don’t drink next time.”
Qi Huan said braggingly, “I had a small sip of hot pot with Xia Xia Jianyi today, and nothing happened!”
“Eat less cold food, don’t forget what day it is in two days.” Qu Jianshen immediately said.
“What day…” Qi Huan was first stunned, then she remembered, and also could not help but blush, “How do you remember better than me?”
Qu Jianshen’s voice was faint, “If it hurts then, I won’t care about you.”
Qi Huan protested, in a low voice, dissatisfied: “Who wants you to care?”
***
Two days later.
Qi Huan’s period came on time. She didn’t expect Qu Jianshen to be able to guess as accurately. It came when he said it would.
As before, the first day in bed was so painful that she didn’t want to do anything.
When the phone rang, Qi Huan picked it up, “Qu Jianshen ……”
Her voice was weak.
“It hurts. Who told you to eat cold things? ” As if expected, Qu Jianshen’s tone contained a faint sense of mockery.
Qi Huan spoke aggrievedly, “I’m in such pain, and you still mock me? Qu Jianshen, you have no heart!”
“I’m here. Open the door.”
At the same time as the words fell, the doorbell rang outside the door.
Qi Huan froze for a few seconds, “You’re outside?”
“Or what?” Qu Jianshen pressed the doorbell again, “How long do you want me to stand outside?”
Qi Huan lifted the blanket and hurriedly went outside to open the door.
When the door opened, Qu Jianshen looked at Qi Huan and asked, “Have you taken your medicine? Have you drunk the brown sugar water? “
“I took the medicine, but it still hurts. I’m too lazy to make the brown sugar water. ” Qi Huan covered her belly, “I don’t know why it hurts extra badly this time. Maybe it’s because of the cold stuff I ate two days ago. “
Qu Jianshen skillfully went to the kitchen to help Qi Huan make brown sugar water, “You go lie down in the bedroom first, I’ll come over later.”
Qi Huan obediently did as she was told.
Not long after she laid down, Qu Jianshen came over with the brown sugar water and the warm water bag.
“Put it on your stomach through your clothes.” He handed the warm water bag over and blew on the brown sugar water, “I’ll blow on it first, and you can drink it when it’s not hot anymore.”
Qi Huan just stared at Qu Jianshen, almost forgetting to react.
She could hear her heart beating more intensely, and with each beat, she couldn’t lie to herself that this was fake.
“Qu Jianshen, if Jianyi was in pain because of her period, would you also take care of her like this?” Qi Huan asked with pursed lips.
She desperately wanted to know the answer.
Qu Jianshen gently raised his eyes and answered quickly, “No.”
Qi Huan’s heart beat faster once again.
“Taking care of you is a habit,” Qu Jianshen said.
The hope that had risen for a moment seemed to shatter in an instant, and she lowered her head in disappointment, saying, “It’s just habit.”
Qu Jianshen’s gaze burned as he looked at Qi Huan. The corners of his lips curled up into a smile as he spoke again, “Just like loving you, it’s also a habit.”
Yes! Just tell her directly!
