Cheng Xi looked at him in the rearview mirror. He was lying if he said he was lucky. He was lying if he said he was not lucky. He was the eldest son of the Ye family and the heir to the family business. His character, appearance, and status were all outstanding. Impeccable, she is the one who is the best.
If there was news that she was not chosen, Ye Bonan would be embarrassed, and the powerful circles would ridicule her for overestimating her abilities.
"We can chat." She answered vaguely.
Be respectful to each other.
Ye Bonan naturally understood it, didn't like it, and wasn't disgusted.
It’s a stage where you can still have contact even if you don’t have passion.
"Have you met the Geng family's young master?"
Cheng Xi couldn't help but feel worried.
The Geng family and his wife have probably already said goodbye, and they must have parted on bad terms.
Zhou Huaikang's high status makes it difficult for Mr. Geng to have a confrontation, but there will definitely be dissatisfaction between the two sides.
Cheng Xi ran away, but Zhou Jingchen not only did not stop him, but also helped him. The Zhou family had no way to explain to the Geng family.
It's so embarrassing.
"I've seen it before." She was depressed.
Ye Bonan frowned, "He doesn't agree?"
"agree.
"Are you dissatisfied with him?"
Cheng Xi nodded, then shook his head, "Do you know Geng Shiqing?"
"The Ye family and the Geng family are not from the same circle." Ye Bonan frowned even more tightly, "Geng Shiqing has a feminine and withdrawn personality and does not like to deal with his children. He has a good relationship with Hu Sheng."
Her scalp swelled and she was covered with goosebumps, "Is Geng Shiqing gay?"
"He is not." Ye Bonan realized that she was afraid of being deceived, "His previous dating partners have all been women."
Cheng Xi grasped the zipper of his jacket, pulled it up, and pulled it off again.
"Hu Sheng does not dislike Geng Shiqing's shortcomings. Hu Sheng always prepares generous gifts for weddings and birthday banquets of relatives of the Geng family. The Hu family and the Geng family have personal relationships."
Her heart almost sank to the bottom.
After rejecting Hu Sheng and learning his secret, he most likely held a grudge and could not rule out encouraging Geng Shiqing to bully her.
The Geng family was rich and powerful in the eyes of outsiders, but in her eyes, it was nothing more than a pit of fire.
Joel's manager took a taxi and chased him to the highway. At 4:30 p.m., the bus pulled into the parking lot of the Fuli Hotel.
There is a supermarket 900 meters away from the hotel. Cheng Xi asked the manager to pull over.
Ye Bonan originally planned to accompany her. She had just arrived and was unfamiliar with the place. Fortunately, there was a commercial street and a hotel nearby. It only took a few minutes to walk. Cheng Xi knew the way and the manager had confidential documents to report to him, so he gave up.
After Cheng Xi finished shopping for daily necessities, she discovered that the north gate of Guomao Mall was next door. There was a watch counter on the first floor with large-screen advertising pictures. One of the brands was worn by Zhou Jingchen every day.
Inexpensive and niche, most styles cost five or six figures.
Her wallet could barely afford it.
As soon as he entered the mall, the store was open and there were not many customers. Cheng Xi walked around and picked out a platinum watch, a unisex model with a large dial and a delicate strap. It shone with sparkling light under the headlights. .
Zhou Jingchen has a fair complexion and strong and lean muscles, so he is suitable for this style.
The checkout was twelve thousand.
Cheng Xi’s three-month internship salary.
But worth the money.
Zhou Jingchen doesn't take softness or hardness outside, and he treats her with softness rather than hardness.
Although a 10,000 yuan watch is not eye-catching, as long as she spent all her savings to buy it, it means something different and he will appreciate it.
Cheng Xi returned to the hotel carrying large and small bags. The room was a twin room, and she lived with the little girl.
The little girl is the same age, twenty years old, looks like a high school student, has a baby face, a baby voice, a petite height of 1.58 meters, and is popular with the opposite sex in the company.
"There is a Guanyin Temple in the scenic area behind the hotel. It is very efficacious! The incense is constantly flowing. Let's go there."
Cheng Xi folded the towels and pajamas and put them on the bed, "What do you want?"
"Marriage!" the little girl said mysteriously, "Sister Lan is also going to ask for a child!"
"I don't believe in Buddha." She was not interested. "It's better to ask for Buddha than to ask for yourself. If I can't solve it myself, Buddha can't solve it."
"Disrespecting Gods and Buddhas will bring disaster -" the little girl covered her mouth and dragged her out of the house, gnashing her teeth and cursing, "I'm asking for a man-made disaster! My boyfriend cheated on me in a long-distance relationship and dumped me. He got close to his female boss! Fifty years old! The 3-year-old mistress! He is really hungry and can eat anything. I will take revenge on him and wish him bad luck!"
"Bodhisattva doesn't care about you..."
Before Cheng Xi finished speaking, Ye Bonan came out of 1017 diagonally opposite, with the room card in his left hand and his coat in his right hand.
She was startled.
"Do you live in 1017?"
"Yes." Ye Bonan looked past her and looked at the room number, "Do you live in 1009?"
"Aren't you going back?"
He put the key card in his pocket and said, "It's too late. Don't rush. I'll be back tomorrow morning."
five o'clock.
The drive takes 1 and a half hours.
It's actually not too late to go back.
But it was dark and there was a traffic jam, so I was inevitably lazy.
"Where are you going?"
The little girl said excitedly, "Go to the scenic spot!"
"Is the scenic spot still open?" Ye Bonan pressed down the elevator, "It's safe to go during the day."
"During the day, the incense is too strong and the place is crowded. At dusk, there are few pilgrims. Please pay more respects."
"Are we going to the Bodhisattva Temple?" Ye Bonan guarded the elevator door and motioned for them to go in, and he followed. "It's quite effective."
"Have you been there too?" Cheng Xi was surprised.
Zhou Jingchen was a typical atheist, and she thought Ye Bonan was the same.
The characters who have reached the top of the pyramid in the shopping mall of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon are not cold-blooded and insensitive.
If interests prevail and you are compassionate, you will be eliminated.
"I've heard it."
The little girl stared at Ye Bonan. His coat was hung on his arms. His top was thin but made him stand tall and stylish.
"General Manager Ye is quite handsome. A woman's beauty covers all her ugliness, and a man's height makes him stand out from the crowd."
Cheng Xi only stared at the jumping numbers and did not respond.
The scenic spot stopped entering the park at 5:30, and they were the last batch.
The temple is halfway up the mountain, and both land sightseeing cars and high-altitude cable cars are directly accessible. Cheng Xi was afraid of heights, so he chose the sightseeing car.
The sky on the mountain is brighter than at the bottom of the mountain, and the sunset is orange. After a few colleagues visited the scenic spot together, they just came down the mountain to visit the snack street. The little girl was greedy for food and loved to be lively, so she left Cheng Xi behind to join the rest of the group.
"Are you hungry?" Ye Bonan asked with gentlemanly concern, "I'll buy some simple meals and you'll wait for me at the temple."
"Not hungry." Cheng Xi had no appetite at all.
The temple is located in the center of the mountainside and is very eye-catching.
Electronic incense has become popular in many cities, which is environmentally friendly and pollution-free, but the temples here still use traditional incense.
Rows of prayer tubes rolled slowly on the shelf. Cheng Xi didn't understand the scriptures, but the handwriting was deeply engraved. She stretched out her hand to touch it, and the lines ran across her fingertips. They were uneven but not sharp.
The empty bells mixed with the rolling sound of prayer tubes echoed in the huge temple.
"First time coming to the temple?"
Cheng Xi tilted his head and stared at Ye Bonan through the gap between the tubes. "I accompany Aunt Zhou to Puzhong Temple on the first and fifteenth day of every month. I rarely go alone."
Ye Bonan struck the small bell hanging at the end of the prayer tube rack, and the sound was timeless, "I often go with my mother."
"Aunt Zhou only prays for peace. She prays for it every year. She has never asked for anything else."
"My mother is begging for a child for me and my brother."
Cheng Xi walked around the wooden frame, and he happened to go around to the other side. The economics was turning, the temple was filled with green smoke, and countless monks' robes were shadowy. In the plain color, Ye Bonan's clothes were fluttering, and the smoke was floating in the wind. As the light faded, his features gradually became clearer. The brown sutra tube and the gray outline were sometimes near and sometimes far away, sometimes bright and sometimes dark.
"Would you like a stick of incense?" He took out his wallet, "I just have some change."
The only group of pilgrims in the temple also left. The monks chanted to the last page. She walked in. Ye Bonan crossed the threshold before her and put a hundred yuan in the merit box, "Yours."
He put in another twenty yuan, "Mine."
Cheng Xi was puzzled, "Why do you have so few?"
Ye Bonan pinched three sticks of incense and lit it on the cauldron. "There are thousands of pilgrims a day. A Bodhisattva cannot take care of everyone. He may not satisfy those with more incense and money first."
She asked, "What about you?"
He smiled indifferently, "I have no wish."
The eldest son of the Ye family has everything he wants, and he really has no desires or demands.
Cheng Xi pointed to the marriage sign on the wall, "You don't want marriage?"
