Chapter 20
Chu Yiyi finally arrived at the place, and when she got out of the car, she felt the coolness brought by the rain, but the next moment, the scene in front of her made her violent little flame rise.
The man I met this morning was gently putting his suit jacket on Xu Min's shoulders.
Chu Yiyi took a deep breath, then strode towards the two of them.
"Sister!" Her voice was loud enough to make both of them look this way.
Xu Min was startled, and subconsciously walked towards her, but realized that there was someone beside him, so he paused again.
Regardless of her hesitant movements, Chu Yiyi walked in quickly, then took Xu Min's arm, and pushed the coat that was draped over her aside, "I saw the weather is so bad, so I came here to pick you up."
Seeing her sincere expression, Xu Min didn't see the indifference she had when she left in the morning. He was inexplicably relieved, and the corner of his mouth smiled, "How did you find this place? Stand a little inside, and be careful not to get caught in the rain."
Chu Yiyi approached her obediently, then looked at the man standing aside, "Who is he?"
"Ah, I forgot to introduce you, Mr. He, this is Chu Yiyi." She paused for a moment, without further explanation, and added, "Yiyi, this is Director He of our Wanfu marketing department."
Chu Yiyi glanced straight over, "Mr. He? Mr. He is really considerate to his colleagues." She glanced at Xu Min's coat meaningfully.
Xu Min was stunned, and subconsciously pinched a corner of the suit jacket, "Yiyi, you misunderstood..."
He Shenghong smiled and interrupted Xu Min, "I don't think there is anything wrong with caring about my colleagues. More importantly, I think that Store Manager Xu and I..." He paused intentionally, and then said: "We can also be regarded as friends. gone."
Chu Yiyi smiled, and looked at Xu Min's coat.
Xu Min paused, and was about to reach out to return the coat to Mr. He.
But He Shenghong turned sideways and said softly to Xu Min: "You don't have to be too polite, I just don't want you to be sick and delay the progress of work. Besides, adults will pass the disease once they are sick. What if they catch a cold and infect children?"
When Chu Yiyi heard this, she glanced at He Shenghong.
Sure enough, all the old foxes in the business field, knowing that Xiaoying and work are the most important things for her sister, they want to block her with these words.
She looked down at what she was wearing today, and suddenly regretted why she didn't bring a coat.
Until getting into the car, Chu Yiyi was still sulking.
She turned on the air conditioner in the car to the highest level, and watched Xu Min put down his coat, and the depression in her heart eased a little.
It's just that there is still no expression on his face.
Xu Min naturally sensed the different atmosphere, but she had been busy all day, and the discomfort caused by the alternation of cold and warm at this moment made her a little dizzy.
Chu Yiyi saw how she was sleeping on one side, and slowly stopped the car by the side.
She reached out and took the pillow at the back and put it in Xu Min's arms, and adjusted the seat for her.
Xu Min opened his eyes slightly, and when he saw her, he called softly, "Yiyi..."
Chu Yiyi hummed, and after seeing that she was more comfortable, she sat back down and continued to drive.
Because she got off work early, and Xiaoying hadn't finished school yet, Chu Yiyi sent her home directly.
Xu Min squinted for a while and became more energetic. She unbuttoned her seat belt and looked at Chu Yiyi.
"Thank you for coming to pick me up."
Chu Yiyi looked at her, a look of frustration suddenly appeared on her expressionless face.
Xu Min looked at Chu Yiyi who finally showed her emotions, and couldn't help reaching out and rubbing her head, "What's the matter? It feels like you've been unhappy today."
Chu Yiyi shook her head, looked at her neatly folded suit jacket, and suddenly said, "Next time I will prepare the jacket."
Xu Min was stunned for a moment, looked at the coat in his hand, and then at Chu Yiyi's tightly pursed lips, before he smiled and said, "Next time I will be ready too."
The first step of Wanfu's quarterly publicity received a good response. The number of page views on the official website is increasing day by day, and the shooting of the promotional video is about to be completed with the efforts of all parties.
It's just that the director was still not satisfied with a scene in the film, and finally negotiated to shoot in a historic church on the outskirts of the city.
Although the journey was a bit far, but fortunately the result of the shooting was not bad, and the director also showed a satisfied smile on his face.
He Shenghong's expression also looked better. After all, he still had to consider the issue of cost. After a segment of the filming, he and the director went back to the RV to discuss the follow-up work.
As soon as the leader left, the atmosphere on the venue gradually relaxed.
The staff who were packing up the props at the side breathed a sigh of relief, "It's finally over."
Xu Min smiled, "Everyone has worked hard, Mr. He has ordered drinks just now, and they should be here by now."
"Wow, it's in the wilderness, can you also deliver takeaway?" A person on the side answered, "When I first came here, I thought I had traveled through time. I didn't expect such a place to exist in C City."
"It's just that it wasn't included in the previous development. In fact, a few kilometers ahead will be the city we are familiar with." Another field manager answered, "Hurry up and get the milk tea, the ice cubes added will melt in a while."
The venue was almost packed, and Xu Min sent the valuable products to the car when the shooting was over. Inside the box were some trinkets for supplementary shots of the distant scene.
She checked carefully again, and found that the pendant of an earring was missing, so she knelt down and searched around the table.
The stained glass of the church, which had been in disrepair for a long time, made a slight sound, and Xu Min paused slightly when he straightened up.
She raised her head slowly, just in time to meet the eyes of the stubble-faced man.
The old church was hot and stuffy after a day in the scorching sun.The people who took the milk tea sat outside in the simple shed where the wires were pulled and the fans were placed, taking a breath, thinking that they would go back inside later to clean up.
But in such a short time, a cry for help suddenly came from the church.
This area is under the jurisdiction of the suburban police station, and there are not many policemen in the station. Including those who are out on duty, there are only two people in the room.
Xu Min and the female policewoman in front of him finished talking about what happened, and then sat aside and waited.
He Shenghong came in after making the phone call, looked at her forehead and the scratches on her arms, frowned slightly, "I'll take you to the hospital first."
Xu Min shook his head, "It's nothing, it's already been dealt with. Let's get busy here first."
"Alright then..." He Shenghong didn't say anything more when he saw her persisting, "The director and others have already gone back. We'll go back together after we prepare the case."
The policeman who was doing the investigation over there also came back, pulled a stool and sat aside and explained, "I went to inquire about it, and someone said that your jeweler's advertisements are all good things. I guess they were targeted by bastards." , I want to touch something valuable while you guys are finished. Didn’t you lose anything?”
Xu Min shook his head, "I haven't lost anything."
"That's okay, but the wound on his body looks scary. Unfortunately, there is no surveillance in that area. It may take some time to find this person."
Comrade policeman looked at her, "How about this, leave your phone number and I'll let you know as soon as I have any news."
On the way back, He Shenghong looked at Xu Min's dazed expression, and lowered his voice, "Are you scared today?"
Xu Min came back to his senses and shook his head, "Fortunately, nothing happened."
He Shenghong paused, "Although I really hope to have a dedicated employee like you, next time, I still have to put my own safety first."
Xu Min forced a smile and didn't say anything more.
She glanced at the time, suddenly remembered something, and looked at He Shenghong again, "Mr. He, I'll make a call."
He Shenghong nodded, "You can..."
Xu Min called Chu Yiyi.
"I'm going to trouble you again today."
"Well, it won't be too late for work."
"Okay, you two eat first, don't wait for me."
"Well, see you tonight."
He Shenghong glanced at her expression, seemed to relax a little, and then continued: "Well, I'll give you two days off. I'll talk to Lao Feng. You should take a good rest these two days."
Xu Min paused, and then said thank you softly.
When we got to the neighborhood, it was already dark.
When Chu Yiyi received the news, she took Xiaoying downstairs, and as soon as she reached the door of the unit building, she saw Xu Min get off the car.
He Shenghong also came out from the other side, walked up to Xu Min and said something softly.
Chu Yiyi stopped, watched them talking, and suddenly understood the reason for her bad mood these days.
Her eyes fell on Xu Min, looking at her slightly raised side face, which was beautiful and graceful, even with a distant and polite smile, people could feel her calm and gentleness.
Can't help but be moved.
Chu Yiyi watched for a long, long time, so long that Xiaoying broke free from her hand and ran to her mother quickly, and so long that Xu Min called out to her who had not moved.
Only then did Chu Yiyi move, she walked to Xu Min's side, and then faced He Shenghong.
He Shenghong just glanced at her, didn't care, but said softly to Xu Min, "You have a good rest these two days, remember to call me if you need anything."
Xu Min nodded, thanked again, and then said to Xiaoying, "Say goodbye to uncle."
Xiaoying snuggled up to her mother and said obediently, "Goodbye, uncle."
As soon as He Shenghong left, Xiaoying grabbed her mother and said, "Mom, I miss you so much."
Xu Min smiled, reached out to hug Xiaoying and kissed her forehead, then smiled at Yiyi, "Let's go up."
Chu Yiyi looked at her, and asked hesitantly: "Your face..." She paused, her eyes fell on Xu Min's forehead which was vaguely covered by her hair.
Xiaoying lay on her mother's head.Before he noticed anything, he already felt a force taking him away, and when he looked back, he had already been hugged into Chu Yiyi's arms.
"Sister Yiyi?"
"Xiaoying is good, mom is too tired, can I let my sister hug her?" Chu Yiyi said softly.
Xiaoying nodded hurriedly, "Then Xiaoying come down by herself!"
Chu Yiyi patted her on the back, didn't say anything, didn't put down the child, and walked straight forward.
Xu Min followed, looked at the silent Chu Yiyi, and didn't say anything more.
