504. Chapter 504 I Am Ji Zitong (3)
"Perhaps she was unwilling to mention those past events at the time. The sudden death of her good friend is a sad thing for everyone. I hope I can find her this time and learn something useful from her. information."
Xi Xiaye was silent for a moment, then put her hand on his shoulder and comforted him, "So let's do our best. Ling Shi has been looking for this answer. I believe that things will become clear soon."
"You are quite optimistic. Do you think you can figure out things that have been silent for 20 or 30 years all at once? If you really could, you wouldn't wait until everything is still a fog. But with your attitude, what can I say? It’s also worthy of encouragement. Okay, let’s leave this matter for later. You should be satisfied with the Ji Zitong I found for you. Amo also praised her very much. From now on, as long as I am not with you, let her never leave. Follow."
Mu Yuchen raised his hand and gently held his bare hand on his shoulder, and said.
Xi Xiaye nodded, "Yes, I know. Don't worry, it's okay. Those people are not brainless. Who dares to hurt people in broad daylight? Just be more vigilant."
"It's better to be careful. This kind of thing is just in case. Besides, you don't have anyone around to take care of you now, so I don't feel at ease."
Mu Yuchen spoke very emotionally.
"I know, okay, I'm going down first. You can take a look at these documents. If you have no problem, sign them. I have to take them to the Ministry of Commerce tomorrow. Let's go!"
She smiled lightly, lowered her head and kissed him on the face. She stretched out her fingertips and tapped the documents she had just brought over on the table. Before Mu Yuchen could think about it, she suddenly turned around and left, and the light cold fragrance faded away. By the time Mu Yuchen came to his senses, her figure had already disappeared outside the door.
Watching her little shadow disappear, the corners of his mouth curved slightly.
When he returned to the office, Amo was already waiting inside with Ji Zitong.
"Sit down, you're welcome!"
Xi Xiaye had a very easy-going smile on her beautiful face. She pointed to the sofa beside her, while skillfully boiling water and making tea, "Sit down and talk."
"Thank you, Director Xi!"
"Young lady, you don't have to be too busy to be polite."
Amo and Ji Zitong looked at each other and smiled, then sat down obediently.
"I don't have so many rules here, so you don't have to be polite to me." Xi Xiaye said calmly, neatly opened the cabinet on the side and took out the tea leaves, "Is Pu'er tea okay? Your brother has been drinking this recently. , I get everything here directly from him.”
As he said that, he glanced at the two of them subconsciously.
Since Ji Zitong entered Xi Xiaye, his sharp eyes had been staring at Xi Xiaye for a long time. He found that she had no airs and was quite elegant and easy-going, so her tense heart relaxed slightly.
"Everything is fine, thank you, Director Xi."
Ji Zitong responded humbly.
"Young Madam, please drink first. Zitong, please tell the Young Madam about your situation first. I will go out and arrange an office and residence for you later."
Amo explained with a smile and took the lead to retreat.
"You may have to work harder in the future. I am a bit busy on weekdays, but don't worry, I will try my best to give you time to rest."
Xi Xiaye poured the tea for Ji Zitong leisurely, and looked at Ji Zitong again gracefully. She had a good impression of Ji Zitong, but she seemed to not talk much and seemed a bit indifferent. , but he still speaks very modestly.
"It's okay, I can be on call 24 hours a day."
Ji Zitong straightened his back slightly and said.
Hearing this, Xi Xiaye smiled and said, "I'm not that harsh here, so you don't need to be nervous. I heard that you have served in the army before?"
Ji Zitong nodded lightly, took a brief sip of tea, and then continued, "Yes, I have been a female soldier for several years, engaged in counter-reconnaissance."
"Female soldier, counter-reconnaissance... pretty good."
Xi Xiaye seemed to have some thoughts as she listened, and lowered her head to take a sip of tea, "Actually, I also went to military school before, and I have also longed for life in the military camp."
"Military school? Is Director Xi also a soldier?"
When Ji Zitong heard this, his eyes lit up slightly, and he looked at Xi Xiaye's little face silently, feeling a little surprised.
Xi Xiaye lowered his eyes, smiled bitterly, but shook his head and said, "No, I can't be considered a soldier, because I retired after less than a year."
After Xi Xiaye said these words, Ji Zitong's eyes darkened slightly. He could vaguely feel a trace of sadness in Xi Xiaye's tone. He didn't know what to say. After thinking about it, he didn't say anything.
"Amo said you have good skills?"
After a while, Xi Xiaye finally calmed down, raised his eyes and looked at Ji Zitong calmly, and smiled.
"My dad is very fond of martial arts. I learned some boxing from him when I was a child, so I have some foundation. He opened a martial arts gym, and I would compete with the students on weekdays when I have nothing to do. I may not have other skills, but my fighting skills are Sort of."
Ji Zitong responded softly.
Xi Xiaye nodded, turned slightly to the side, looked at Ji Zitong sideways, and couldn't help but chuckle, "Actually, when it comes to fighting, I'm not unfamiliar with it at all."
…
The two chatted for a long time, and Xi Xiaye also got a general understanding of Ji Zitong. She was a very straightforward girl, and she liked Ji Zitong quite a lot. Although she didn't talk much, looking at her, she felt... Sometimes I think of myself before. I don't know why, but Xi Xiaye seems to be able to feel a touch of loneliness from her.
"Okay, you can make arrangements with Amo first. You can rest for two days and come directly to the company on Monday morning."
When Amo came to pick him up, Xi Xiaye stood up slowly and said.
"Okay, thank you!"
Ji Zitong nodded slightly, then turned around and left with Amo.
In the afternoon, Xi Xiaye went to discuss project matters with her partners. She was very busy until very late. When she got home, Mu Yuchen had already cooked a table full of delicious dishes.
However, Xi Xiaye didn't seem to have much appetite these days. After eating a few simple mouthfuls, she fiddled with the rice in the bowl. When she saw that the man opposite was also using it almost the same way, she murmured, " Mr. Mu, I don’t want to wash the dishes today…”
"After finishing the rice in your bowl, I give you permission not to wash it. You have been very busy these days, but your fighting power has weakened. Are you tired of these dishes?"
Without saying a word, he added a lot of vegetables to her bowl.
"No, I went with them for an inspection the day before yesterday to catch the wind. Although I took medicine when I came back, I still seem to have caught a cold..."
