In the study room, Chen Shuo was leaning on a comfortable chair and was having a brief conference call.
The preparations for the establishment of the New York branch are about to begin. Gu Zhiheng and He Jie, the two hard-working mandarin ducks, have already gone ahead to take care of the preliminary matters such as renting an office and recruiting personnel.
Both of them are returnees, have no language problems, and are familiar with New York.
Liuzi is also divided into different grades. Those who live in New York and those who live in the countryside are completely two types of international students. Even the poorest among this group, Gu Zhiheng, lived in an urban apartment when he was studying in New York. , one month’s rent is equivalent to the annual income of Minnesota’s middle class.
Chen Shuo would definitely have to go to New York then. Mikhail helped pave the way and contacted several council lords, as well as officials responsible for reviewing the company's procedures. Gu Zhiheng also went to negotiate specifically. Passed.
That 'Commissioner Smith' was very professional and ethical. He collected money according to standards without any color discrimination.
“The early preparations have been carried out step by step. Once Gao Lin’s finishing work in China is completed, the Muscial.ly acquisition process will be started immediately. Next year is a critical year, and Miyin and TIKTOK must work together.”< br>
While giving instructions, Chen Shuo glanced outside from the corner of his eye.
After hearing the doorbell, Chen Shuo felt relieved.
"Okay, that's it for today." Chen Shuo ended the video conference, turned off his laptop, and lit a cigarette.
Then he got up and walked out of the study. On the sofa in the living room of the suite, there was a set of unopened underwear on a tray. Because it was packed in a gilded cloth bag, I didn't know what style it was.
If the hotel service staff is professional enough, they will not send ordinary styles.
"Brother Chen Shuo..." Ran Chaoyun was still a little embarrassed, "Well, I, I went to take a shower..."
Xiao Ran, already wrapped in a thick bathrobe, staggered Her clothes were not closed tightly, and a trace of snow-white skin could be seen.
Chen Shuo was a little surprised.
When did she become so sensible?
"Well, when I called for service just now, the waiter who came said that he could help with washing and drying clothes, so I" Ran Chaoyun explained in a low voice, "I changed out of my clothes and gave them to them."
"So that's what it is." Chen Shuo finally understood, and then suddenly remembered something.
Staring at Ran Chaoyun, Chen Shuo raised the corners of his mouth: "Didn't they tell you that if you take the clothes away at this time, you have to wait until tomorrow morning to send them back."
"Huh?? ”
Ran Chaoyun was completely confused, and then panicked: "What should I do? I, I have no clothes to wear, how can I go back!"
Chen Shuo also looked distressed: "Yeah, what should I do? ?"
As he spoke, Chen Shuo turned to Ran Chaoyun and sighed: "It seems that you can only stay here for one night. Alas, you said this was a big deal."
This bitch man still had a reluctant look on his face, which made Ran Chaoyun feel that he had caused him trouble.
Ran Chaoyun came here to apologize. She was in a state of being wronged, and because it was her own decision to send the clothes to be washed, her future ex-girlfriend really felt very guilty and guilty.
"I'm sorry, Brother Chen Shuo, I can't do anything well." Xiao Ran lowered his head in aggrieved manner, curling his lips so hard that he was about to drop his pearls.
"Okay, okay, don't cry, it's not a big deal."
Chen Shuo walked over, raised his hand to help Ran Chaoyun shed his tears, and said softly: "Go take a bath quickly. , I really caught a cold later, I don’t blame you.”
“If anything happens, let’s talk about it after taking a shower.” The dog man said sincerely, and when he saw Xiao Ran still blaming himself, he said. He spun her around and pushed her gently towards the bathroom.
Then, he helped her close the bathroom door very considerately, but still did not forget to remind her: "Remember to lock the door, otherwise I may break in."
In the bathroom, Ran Chaoyun couldn't help laughing when he heard this, thinking that brother Chen Shuo would not do such a thing.
Hearing that there was no movement outside, Ran Chaoyun thought that brother Chen Shuo should be back in the study and busy with work
She looked around and looked at the extremely spacious bathroom, feeling a little emotional in her heart, really It is worthy of being a large suite in a top hotel, so luxurious.
Xiao Ran’s family belongs to the middle class in the local area. They have a complete RV, no worries about food and drink, and a small amount of savings. They live a happy life and often travel as a family, but they stay in hotels of this quality. , which is unthinkable.
A pair of bare hands dropped to his waist. Ran Chaoyun untied the straps of his bathrobe. After taking off his bathrobe, he looked back at himself in the mirror.
The girl's fruit is already waiting to be picked.
The warm bath water slowly poured down the shower head. Ran Chaoyun felt that his body was slowly getting warmer, and his thoughts quickly became messy again.
She is thinking wildly.
My future ex-girlfriend is already nineteen years old. What else does a nineteen-year-old girl not understand?
She already had a strong affection and affection for Chen Shuo, and now they were in the same room together by accident. In this luxurious hotel suite, it was just the two of them.
If you stay here for one night, what will happen?
Oh, don’t you dare to think about it anymore?
That is absolutely impossible.
I went to a mountain scenic spot to shoot before, and after that, I was in the back seat of a BMW X5. It’s not like Chen Shuo’s brother had never done anything to him. At that time, because of the scene, he could only click as far as he wanted. But now, all the conditions We have it all.
Living room
Chen Shuo was sitting on the sofa playing with his mobile phone, his mind not on it at all.
In his mind, he kept recalling every detail of his relationship with Ran Chaoyun in his previous life. This real person was his legitimate girlfriend after Qin Weizi.
Although they broke up in the end, Chen Shuo had to admit that during that relationship, Ran Chaoyun loved him much more than he loved Ran Chaoyun.
This long-legged, fair-skinned beauty from the Northeast provided him with such high emotional value that even after Xiao Ran went to study abroad, Chen Shuo still missed her.
Besides these, what flashed through Chen Shuo's mind were countless lingering nights of rubbing hands together...
Looking back, Chen Shuo looked away.
Why hasn’t she washed it yet?
‘Bata’
Lighting a cigarette, the bathroom door opened and Ran Chaoyun walked out in a puff of water vapor.
"Brother Chen Shuo, I've finished washing," Ran Chaoyun whispered.
"Well, okay."
Chen Shuo smiled gently: "Come over and have something to eat."
Ran Chaoyun looked at the pastries on the table, walked slowly over, and sat down with Chen Shuo next to.
As for why it is a pastry, nonsense, there is no peculiar smell when eating this thing. Do you want to eat barbecue crayfish?
Delay the kiss later.
Chen Shuo took a piece of cake to Ran Chaoyun and said, "I called the hotel customer service and asked them to wash the clothes and send them over as soon as possible. Don't be too anxious."
"Okay, okay" Xiao Ran said in her heart Thinking about it, I'm not in a hurry now.
Taking the pastry, Ran Chaoyun took a bite. Just as he was about to speak, Chen Shuo received a work call.
We are talking about company matters, personnel transfers, annual salary increases, etc. In fact, these will have to be discussed later, but now after several rounds of major rectifications by Chen Shuo, MiMi Technology is equivalent to His kingdom, after a meeting or something, is just a process.
Stupid women will say that rap is the best medical beauty treatment for a man. This is uninformed and superficial.
Career is the best medical beauty for a man!
Which woman doesn’t want her man to be a ruthless character who scolds Fang Qiu and strategizes in her own field?
That kind of thing, I don’t want a lot of money, I just want a lot of love, but there are too many good days, so I will be honest if I send it to work in express sorting for two days.
"Okay, let's do it like this. The management authority of foreign employees must be placed in the headquarters. Every foreign employee must come to the headquarters for training for a month. At least in the early stage, this must be done. Okay, take a rest early. Thank you."
Putting down the phone, Chen Shuo looked at Ran Chaoyun: "Did you want to say something just now?"
"Ah, I"
Ran Chaoyun opened his mouth and whispered: "I just want to apologize seriously."
The bathrobe on Xiao Ran was very loose and the hem was a little It hangs slightly, maybe because I didn't wipe it carefully enough just now, and there are still some thin drops of water on my skin.
Chen Shuo smiled lightly and said: "The sincerity of your apology is enough. I accept your apology."
After hearing what Chen Shuo said, Ran Chaoyun felt relieved and finally revealed his A relaxed smile.
The two of them were eating cakes and chatting.
Ran Chaoyun glanced at Chen Shuo cautiously, and finally plucked up the courage to ask in a low voice: "Brother Chen Shuo, can I ask a question? It doesn't matter if you don't answer."
"You Let’s talk first.” After talking about “You and Senior Sister Yi Yining”, Ran Chaoyun stopped talking.
After hearing this, Chen Shuo said: "You are asking about my relationship with Yi Yining, right?"
"Well, yes."
"She and I"
Chen Shuo crossed his legs and looked at Ran Chaoyun with a serious expression: "I said I was with her, what should you do?"
We are together, right? , it is obvious that they are in a state of being together.
Although he was mentally prepared, he still couldn't bear the raging loss. Ran Chaoyun's body weakened slightly, but he crushed the cake in his hand.
The broken pastry fell to the floor. Ran Chaoyun stood up quickly and squatted down to pick it up again.
"Okay, don't pick it up."
Chen Shuo walked over and squatted down to help Ran Chaoyun up.
Xiao Ran looked up, with a disappointed but also magnanimous expression on his face: "What should I do, brother Chen Shuo, I like you too."
Chen Shuo looked at Ran Chaoyun, and then stretched out his hand to She closed the skirt of her bathrobe and sighed: "I also have a crush on you. I don't deny this. I am a very tacky man and I like an outstanding girl like you."
Finished , Chen Shuo patted Ran Chaoyun on the shoulder: "It's late, go to sleep."
"You sleep in the bedroom, and I'll deal with it on the sofa all night."
"Yes"
Chen Shuo interrupted Ran Chaoyun's words and raised his finger: "Listen to me and go to bed quickly."< br>
Said, Chen Shuo picked up the package of underwear on the sofa and handed it to Ran Chaoyun: "Don't think too much, good night."
Ran Chaoyun took the underwear with a complicated mood, turned and walked to the bedroom door , looked back and found that Chen Shuo was still standing there, watching her.
Walking into the bedroom, Ran Chaoyun gently closed the door. He didn't know whether it was intentional or not paying attention. Anyway, the door was not completely closed, but was left ajar.
Climb into bed and change into underwear under the quilt. It's very suitable.
This bed is so big and so comfortable to lie on. Even if you spread out your limbs, you still can't touch the edge of the bed.
Ran Chaoyun turned sideways back and forth, tossing and turning, but he couldn't get the slightest hint of sleepiness.
Voice control is not yet common in hotels now. Ran Chaoyun touched the touch screen button on the bedside, and the night light on the wall lit up softly.
She stood up and put her long hair up, picked up her phone, looked at the door, lowered her head and sent a message to Chen Shuo.
"Brother Chen Shuo, are you asleep?"
Ding dong.
Ran Chaoyun could even hear the notification tone from Chen Shuo's cell phone outside the house.
Soon, Chen Shuo replied: "Not yet, what's wrong?"
Ran Chaoyun: "I can't sleep either. How about we chat for a while?"
He heard the buzzer outside the room again, but this time Chen Shuo did not reply immediately.
One minute, two minutes
It was obviously a small matter, but Ran Chaoyun felt extremely nervous.
Finally, Chen Shuo replied: "What are you talking about?"
Ran Chaoyun: "Do you want to come in? It's very troublesome to talk on the mobile phone."
Then he sent another message: "The door is unlocked."
After a while, the bedroom door slowly opened Pushing open, Chen Shuo walked in, sat on the edge of the bed, raised one leg and bent it on the bed, and looked at Ran Chaoyun.
“Why can’t you sleep?”
Ran Chaoyun clasped her fingers gently, and a few strands of long hair hung down on both sides of her cheeks, adding a touch of charm to her young and beautiful face.
"I am"
Ran Chaoyun pursed his lips, and then summoned up the courage to look at Chen Shuo: "I just want to say, I like you too."
"I, too, want to..."
Originally Ran Chaoyun wanted to say, I also want to be with you, but when the words came to his lips, he compromised and became: "I also want to be by your side."
After saying that, Xiao Ran looked forward to it looked at Chen Shuo.
Chen Shuo's response was also very direct. After staring at his future ex-girlfriend, he tilted his head slightly and kissed her directly.
The moment they made contact, Xiao Ran raised her arms and hugged Chen Shuo's neck. Although she was unskilled, she responded with heart. At this moment, her thoughts were messy and blank, but her body and mind But extremely full.
"Why do you want to be by my side?"
Chen Shuo raised his head slightly, looked at Ran Chaoyun, and asked with a smile on his lips.
This feeling is very strange. When Chen Shuo and Ran Chaoyun were together, they were similar in age and experience. At that time, Chen Shuo was still an entrepreneurial young man who needed He Yongyuan's help from time to time, so the two of them were It is an evenly matched situation.
They don’t have much money, so they are happy and poor.
But now, it is very different.
As Chen Shuo spoke, he raised his hand and tucked a few strands of Ran Chaoyun's hair hanging on her face behind her ears, and then looked at her quietly.
The future ex-girlfriend in front of me is like a plump peach.
But she is a Siberian tiger girl, she is bloody and responsible at heart.
"Just, being by your side like this."
Xiao Ran pursed her lips and did something that satisfied Chen Shuo.
She took the initiative to take off her bathrobe, but did not completely untie it because the belt around her waist was still firmly tied to her slender waist.
At this moment, Xiao Ran is like a hard-boiled egg with half the shell peeled off.
She is paler than Chen Shuo imagined.
Two snow-white slender thighs were also faintly visible in the hem of the bathrobe.
Facing such a brave Ran Chaoyun, Chen Shuo gave her a long and suffocating kiss. The two of them changed from half-sitting to lying down hugging each other.
Xiao Ran's voice is very strange. When she gets full of energy, she speaks in a slightly rough voice.
But at this time, she is so adorable and intoxicating that people can't help themselves.
“Yes, it’s this long-lost feeling.” Chen Shuo couldn’t help but say.
Ran Chaoyun, who was confused and infatuated, asked in a panic: "What, what's long time no see?"
Chen Shuo did not answer, still holding her, the two of them went from lying sideways facing each other to Chen Shuo's full suppression.
After looking at each other for a few seconds, Ran Chaoyun turned his face sideways, frowned and groaned, holding the bed sheets in his hands, curling his toes, unable to completely relax for a long time.
In this late night, across a chaotic timeline, Chen Shuo embezzled the nineteen-year-old Ran Chaoyun. According to the original trajectory of life, Ran Chaoyun would not see this person who made her see her until three years later. A man who will never be forgotten.
But in this life, her memory will surely be even more unforgettable.
The result was the same. Xiao Ran once again tolerated Chen Shuo's rudeness and weird excitement without reservation.
Ran Chaoyun was also confused, because Chen Shuo made him feel like...
I found a cherished item that had been lost for a long time, and couldn't put it down after I found it.
But Ran Chaoyun will never know the reason. (End of this chapter)
