Chapter 178: A toast to you

Early the next morning, Jiang Mian went to the company.

She knocked on the office door with her fingers, and then heard a voice coming in.

Jiang Mian pushed the door open and walked in. Ye Yi was sitting on the office chair. A playful smile flashed across his lips, “Long time no see."

Jiang Mian smiled and sat down, "Long time no see."

Across the table, Yeyi greedily traced her face in his heart.

Then he sat up straight and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left you alone at that time."

Jiang Mian shook his head, "It's okay, it has nothing to do with you. If you want to blame me, you can only blame the person who deliberately took me away."

Speaking of this, Yeyi frowned, with a bit of seriousness on his face, "Do you know who it is?"

Jiang Mian, “I don't know. I have been blindfolded and know nothing about everything."

Nightwing, “How did you come back?"

Jiang Mian, “I sneaked back by myself. While those people weren't paying attention."

Yeyi nodded thoughtfully, "Let's not talk about this anymore. I haven't congratulated you for winning the award."

Jiang Mian licked his lips and said, "I was just going to talk to you about work. I plan to take a rest during this time."

"Okay, pay attention to your health. See Sister Ning when you feel better."

"Okay, then I'll go back first."

No matter how much he felt reluctant to give up, Nightwing still nodded, "Go ahead."

"By the way, I'll refund you the endorsement for the facial cream."

Jiang Mian stopped opening the door and turned around, "It's better to retreat, so as not to delay the brand."

Yeyi hummed, "Go back and have a good rest."

Jiang Mian returned home and did not see Ji Zhixiu.

She raised her voice and said, "Aunt Song."

Aunt Song wiped her hands from the kitchen and ran out, "What's wrong, young lady?"

"Do you know which pet store the dried fish should be sent to?"

Aunt Song shook her head, "I don't know about that, young madam. The young master sent it personally."

"Okay, it's okay. You can go about your business."

After sending Aunt Song away, Jiang Mian went upstairs.

Ji Zhixiu didn't come back until ten o'clock at night.

Jiang Mian was lying on the bed waiting for him, with a warm yellow light on beside the bed.

Hearing the noise, Jiang Mian put down his phone and asked, "Are you back?"

Ji Zhixiu took off his coat and said, "Still not asleep? The company has a new project recently. Sorry, it took some time. You don't have to wait for me next time, you go to bed first."

Jiang Mian raised her lips and smiled, "I knew you were busy, so I didn't wait for you on purpose."

Ji Zhixiu laughed and said, "Okay, I'll take a shower first."

After coming out of the shower, Ji Zhixiu lifted up the quilt and lay down on it.

Jiang Mian reached out and hugged his lower back.

Ji Zhixiu closed his eyes and said, "Good night."

Jiang Mian bit her lip and said, "Good night."

...

Jing Yiyi chose the most expensive French restaurant in Kyoto.

Located in the tallest building in the city center, from here you can have an unobstructed view of the scenery below.

Nightwing spread out his napkin.

Jing Yiyi turned to the waiter and said, "Have an aperitif."

The waiter handed over the menu, "Okay madam, what else do you need?"

Jing Yiyi lowered her head and looked at the menu, "This, this, two more of this..."

After ordering, she handed the menu back to the waiter.

Her operations were smooth and smooth, and Yeyi raised his eyebrows, "Don't you even ask me?"

Jing Yiyi raised her chest and raised her head, "Didn't you invite me to dinner? Of course, I will choose the dishes. You will eat whatever I choose."

"Okay." Yeyi was speechless and choked.

Jing Yiyi raised his glass and said, "Here's a toast to you."

Nightwing raised his hand, "I'd like to toast you too, thank you for providing me with the clues."

Jing Yi smiled, "But Jiang Mian didn't find it based on my clues."

Yeyi, “That's not important. What's important is that the person is back."

"Yes, the important thing is that the person is back." Jing Yiyi couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Then he drank it all in one gulp and filled it up again, "Come on, keep drinking! Anyway, congratulations."

Nightwing frowned and looked at her suspiciously, "Is your drinking okay?"

"Who are you looking down on? It was because they drank me together last time that I got drunk..." she blurted out.

When they heard her mention the last time, both of them were stunned.

The scene we met last time in the club is still vivid in my mind.

She still remembered her awkward mood at that time, that is, from that time on.

Jing Yiyi gradually realized that she was different from Yeyi and always had vague expectations for him.

Yeyi curled his lips, "Okay, you're awesome, come on, drink."

Wine glasses clinked.

Jing Yiyi smiled particularly happily.

By the second half, Jing Yiyi was already drunk. With her eyes dim and drunk, she stretched out her hand and made two gestures in front of his eyes, “Why are there so many of you?"

Yeyi said, “You are drunk, I will take you back."

Jing Yiyi shook her head wildly, "No, I'm not drunk. I have a question for you."

"You ask."

Jing Yiyi looked at him with a smile, "Yeyi, are we friends?"

"Yes." He replied without hesitation.

"Yeah, that's good. It's good to be friends." After getting the answer he wanted, Jing Yiyi stood up crookedly.

"Okay, let's go back."

Nightwing stood up, "Can you leave?"

"Yes." Jing Yiyi raised her skirt and turned around in a circle, fearing that he wouldn't believe it.

The next second, her center of gravity was unstable and she was about to fall to the ground. Yeyi quickly caught her with his eyes and hands.

With her appearance, it's hard to believe the persuasiveness of her words.

Nightwing frowned, "I'll help you."

"Okay," Jing Yiyi put her arm on his shoulder.

The two walked out, and soon she stopped again.

Nightwing, “What's wrong?"

Jing Yiyi burped, raised her head, and said innocently, "I...I didn't take my bag..."

Yeyi told her, “Wait for me here, I will go back and get it for you."

Jing Yiyi nodded obediently, "Okay."

Nightwing returned to her seat and found her handbag. He came back quickly and supported her again, "I got it, let's go."

"Oh oh oh, okay."

After sending Jing Yiyi home, Yeyi returned home alone.

After arriving home, I saw the message from Jing Yiyi on my phone.

Jing Yiyi: [Thank you for your hospitality today. I have already gone to bed. 】

Yeyi: [Remember to drink hangover soup. If you can't drink it next time, don't be brave. 】

After sending this message, I received no reply.

Nightwing raised his head and looked at the ceiling and waited for a while. After making sure that the other end would not reply, he picked up his clothes and entered the bathroom.

And the Jing family.

Jing Yiyi held her phone and looked at the messages from Yeyi repeatedly.

After a long time, she said to herself, “I can't drink it."

She knew best how drunk she was.

She just wanted to pretend to be drunk to test Nightwing's attitude, since he said they were friends.

Does that mean that he is not that resistant to her as a person? Is there any possibility of further development?

Thinking of this, Jing Yiyi felt that she was in high spirits again.

She happily shouted outside, “Auntie, make me a cup of honey water!"
