Chapter 15 Mrs.
Chapter 15 Mrs.
The bathroom on the top floor of the high-rise building is filled with a faint scent of bergamot. Next to the double jacuzzi is a half-frosted floor-to-ceiling glass window. Through the window, you can see the misty night view of the city.
In the bathtub, Xie Rui hugged Lin Qiao sideways and was helping him wipe his back.
In the warm water sprinkled with bath salt, the porous natural sponge gently rubbed against the skin of the shoulder and neck. Lin Qiao closed his eyes, enjoying the tenderness afterwards like a lazy Persian cat.
"Joe." Amidst the slight hum of the jacuzzi, Xie Rui called him.
"Ok?"
"I love you." Xie Rui hugged him from behind and kissed his neck gently.
Lin Qiao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly pressed his hand and turned over.
"Did you..." Looking into Xie Rui's eyes, Lin Qiao asked suspiciously, "What did you do to apologize to me?"
"Delusion about being persecuted?" Xie Rui sneered, "I worry about you every day."
Lin Qiao narrowed his eyes: "I'm either at work or at home every day. You go to nightclubs every night in Beijing. Who should worry?"
"Don't mention it..." Xie Rui sighed, "It's fine to drink, the perfume smell on those women, tsk tsk..."
Lin Qiao leaned over and sniffed it: "If you dare to bring a trace of dirty smell into the door, I will throw you out of here."
"Didn't you find that I was missing a shirt when you helped me pack?" Xie Rui generously let him sniff, "Throw one away every night."
Hearing what he said, Lin Qiao turned around in satisfaction and continued to ask Xie Rui to wipe his back.
After wiping his back, Xie Rui's hand slowly moved down Lin Qiao's waist, and he was about to touch it...
"By the way, you came back early, and the project is settled?" Lin Qiao asked with eyes closed, grabbing Xie Rui's restless hand.
Xie Rui's IT company is located upstairs in Hewei, and is currently focusing on the development of mobile application software.Since the cooperation with the operator last year, the company has more and more projects, and business trips and entertainment are unavoidable.
"Almost." Xie Rui kissed Lin Qiao's hot and humid back of the neck, "Li Ji is still there with a few people, signing the contract tomorrow."
"You ran back before you signed?" Lin Qiao frowned, "After talking for so long, don't make any accidents at the moment of signing."
"Whatever, they can take care of it if they can, and forget it if they can't." Xie Rui pulled out the hand held by Lin Qiao and put it around his waist. "The bigger the company, the more troublesome it will be. I won't go on business trips in the future."
Before Lin Qiao could speak, Xie Rui's cell phone rang outside as if to confirm what he said earlier.
"Your phone is ringing." Lin Qiao reminded.
Xie Rui hugged him tightly, and his fingers stroked his lower abdomen with the flow of water, completely ignoring the ringtone of the phone.
After the phone rang for a while, it finally stopped, but after a while, another different ringtone rang again.
Lin Qiao heard that it was Xie Rui's personal cell phone that rang this time.
"Ray, go answer the phone - you know that everyone in the company is afraid of you, it's not urgent and Li Ji dare not call you like this."
Seeing that Xie Rui still refused to move, Lin Qiao simply turned around and pushed him with his hands: "Hurry up and pick it up, I'm tired from soaking, so I'm going to sleep now."
Xie Rui couldn't hold him back, so he reluctantly let him go and got up to answer the phone.
The phone call was indeed made by a subordinate in Beijing, and, as Lin Qiao said, the person they placed in the other company's company reported that something happened to the project, and maybe the contract could not be signed tomorrow.
Things are a bit troublesome, Xie Rui made this phone call a bit long - urgently find someone tonight and tomorrow morning, and what to do - after all, everyone has been busy with this project for a long time, and no one wants to fall short at this time.
Half an hour later, Xie Rui hung up the phone and walked into the bedroom but did not see Lin Qiao on the bed.After searching around the room, he finally found that Lin Qiao was still soaking in the bathtub.
"Joe?" Xie Rui walked to the bathtub and called him softly.
The water in the bathtub was calm, Lin Qiao closed his eyes, leaned on the soft pillow beside the bathtub, obviously fell asleep.
Xie Rui reached out and tried it, the water in the bathtub was already cold.
"Joe, Joe," Xie Rui took off the shower and called him while pouring hot water on him, "wake up, go back to sleep."
Lin Qiao's eyelashes trembled, and he opened his eyes in a daze—after Xie Rui went to answer the phone, he turned off the massage and constant temperature functions of the bathtub, but accidentally fell asleep.
Seeing Lin Qiao's appearance of not waking up, Xie Rui didn't say any more. After pouring hot water, he quickly brought a big bath towel to help him dry his body.Then he pushed him on the chair and dried his hair before leading him back to the bedroom.
Lin Qiao was sleepy-eyed and let himself be manipulated. After being stuffed into the bed, he groped for a while and quickly fell asleep holding Xie Rui's arm.
At five or six o'clock in the morning, Lin Qiao felt cold and automatically moved closer to the heat source around him.Xie Rui stretched out his long arms, and simply picked him into his arms and hugged him.
However, as soon as he touched it, he felt that the person in his arms was terribly hot, which shocked him to wake up.
Touching Lin Qiao's forehead with his own, Xie Rui tentatively asked, "Joe?"
Lin Qiao curled up in his arms and gave a soft "hmm".
"It's very hot, do you have a fever?"
Lin Qiao shivered and said hoarsely, "I want to drink water."
Xie Rui immediately got out of bed, went to the kitchen and poured him a glass of warm water, and served him to drink while leaning against the bed.
After he finished drinking the water, Xie Rui took out the ear thermometer and measured his body temperature at his ear.
After a beep, Xie Rui looked at the screen and frowned.
"Go to bed first, I'll call the doctor."
Lin Qiao grabbed his pajamas and shook his head: "It's just a cold, don't make such a big noise, we'll talk about it after dawn."
Touching his hot forehead, Xie Rui was noncommittal to his proposal.
Seeing this, Lin Qiao got into bed obediently, and said to him pitifully, "Could you sleep with me?"
Looking at his water-colored eyes, the person beside the bed sighed slightly, turned off the light and went to bed.
Fever is indeed uncomfortable. Lin Qiao is obviously hot, but she is still shivering under the quilt.After a while, he was so hot that he couldn't help but want to kick the quilt, and he didn't calm down until he was hugged by the people around him.
Just like this, hot and cold, I don't know how long it took, and the feeling of being muddled and unexamined slowly receded.
It was broad daylight, and the curtains in the bedroom were half drawn.Lin Qiao slowly opened his eyes. In addition to seeing two gradually clear figures beside the bed, there was also the sound of English conversations that was deliberately lowered in volume above his head-it was Xie Rui who was talking to the visiting doctor.
Both of them use their mother tongue and speak quickly.Lin Qiao just woke up, only hearing the doctor say that she doesn't need to take medicine for the time being.
"Doctor, please tell him that I won't die..." Lin Qiao interjected as he struggled to support himself.
This made the doctor laugh: "It's just a common cold, just pay attention to rest."
Xie Rui helped him sit on the head of the bed, and put an ice patch on his forehead: "Have a good rest."
The doctor took care of them a few more words before saying goodbye to them. After sending the doctor away, Xie Rui brought Lin Qiao a glass of water.
"Are you awake?" Xie Rui said after handing him the water, "The doctor said that if the temperature doesn't cool down at night, you need to take medicine."
Lin Qiao nodded, took the water and asked, "What time is it?"
Xie Rui looked up at the clock: "08:30."
"I'm going to the office," Lin Qiao said weakly, "I brought back a file yesterday and changed it. It's a hardcopy. It needs to be sent out before I get off work today. I want to give it to He Jing earlier."
Xie Rui just wanted to say that the scan is enough, but suddenly raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who is He Jing?"
Lin Qiao gulped down the whole glass of water, and waved at him nonchalantly: "The newly recruited boy just graduated from college."
Xie Rui took the empty glass, then leaned over and kissed him: "I happen to be going to the company, so I can take it for you by the way."
■
It was 15 minutes before nine o'clock, and Hewei's office was very quiet, except for a few early-arriving employees sorting things out on their seats.
The computer in front of He Jing was turned on. He sat on his seat and looked at the screen with his chin resting on his hands.
Last night, he was afraid that Han Zhao would be unhappy when he saw him coming home late, but unexpectedly when he entered the house, he could smell the aroma of the food—Han Zhao actually cooked dinner for two with the menu on his phone.
Tomato scrambled eggs, chicken soup, preserved eggs mixed with tofu, although the dishes were simple, but Han Zhao said that it was his first time cooking, and He Jing was so moved.
During the meal, Han Zhao took the initiative to ask him about going to work, and praised him for working overtime on the first day, which would give the boss more impression points.
After eating, Han Zhao broke into the bathroom while he was taking a shower, and pressed himself to give him a blowjob. Finally, after the two of them took a shower, they were on the bed again...
Ahhhh, really, really...
"He Jing?"
Just when He Jing was blushing and recalling the exercise on the bed last night, a tall figure suddenly appeared in front of the desk, blocking the light.
"what?"
Suddenly recovering from the drifting thoughts, He Jing raised his head and looked at the person who called him—the man in front of him was tall, and although he was an oriental, his facial features had distinct European and American characteristics.It was obviously winter, and he was only wearing a thin low-necked sweater. This casual attire did not look like a lawyer in the firm at all.
Seeing that he had regained his senses, the man condescendingly handed over a few pages of documents: "Lin Qiao asked me to give you this."
He Jing stood up and took the document from him.
Glancing down, he was startled by all the revision marks, and immediately started to look at the first line.
After hurriedly reading the first page, He Jing just wanted to turn the page when he suddenly realized that the man who just gave him the document hadn't left.
"Ah, thank you," He Jing raised his head and thanked, "I'm sorry, you... Lawyer Lin..."
This person somehow brought him a document, and He Jing didn't know what to ask.
The other party looked directly into his eyes, and the two of them looked at each other for a long time, until He Jing couldn't bear the pressure, turned his eyes slightly away, and then replied: "I'm from his family, and he said that you will give me the right after you change it." Jennifer, ask her to send it to the client this afternoon."
"Okay, okay."
Before he could figure out what "family members" meant, He Jing heard Emily's surprise voice when she just walked into the office: "Mr. Xie! Are you back from a business trip?"
"I just came back last night." Xie Rui turned to face Emily with a smile on his face.
Seeing He Jing standing there in embarrassment, Emily quickly introduced: "This is He Jing, the new first-year lawyer in our team."
"I know, Lin Qiao told me and asked me to bring a document to He Jing."
Emily asked suspiciously: "Is Lawyer Lin going to a meeting in the morning? He doesn't have it in his schedule."
"I had a fever last night... I wanted to come to work today, but I stopped me."
"Ah, does it matter?" The boss is sick, so of course the secretary should show concern.
"The doctor said he would take a few days off. Is there anything important for him these two days?"
Emily immediately turned on the computer to check Lin Qiao's itinerary, and reported in a doggy manner: "There are only two conference calls scheduled for the second half of the week."
Xie Rui nodded in satisfaction, and made a silent gesture towards her: "Don't tell him that I asked."
"It must be kept secret." Emily agreed with a smile.
While the two were talking, other members of the team entered the office one after another and greeted Xie Rui when they saw him.
Seeing that it was time for work, Xie Rui was just about to go home when he suddenly remembered something: "Emily, what do you eat when you have a fever?"
Emily was taken aback, and then said, "Let's have porridge, serve it with some refreshing side dishes..."
"Cook at home?"
"Well," Emily nodded, "The rice cooker can cook it...but the tea restaurant downstairs should also sell it."
Xie Rui nodded slightly at her and left the office in a hurry.
As soon as he walked away, before it was He Jing's turn to ask questions, all the female colleagues around him cheered and surrounded him.
"How is it?" Emily's eyes sparkled with excitement, "What do you think of Mr. Xie?"
"Very, very good," He Jing stammered, surrounded by women, "Why ask me if he is okay!"
"Because you're a man," Emily said. "All the women who've seen him are dead. We need a man's opinion."
"It's just...it's good..." He Jing held Lin Qiao's corrected document in his hand, and couldn't help asking, "Who is he? Why did he bring the document for Lawyer Lin?"
"The boss of 'Yunrui Technology' upstairs," Jennifer interjected, "is also your 'wife' of Lawyer Lin."
