The boss always wants to smack me

Li Beijue raised his eyebrows in disbelief, but suddenly he heard his phone ring.

Li Beijue took out his phone casually, and when he saw the name displayed on the screen, his expression suddenly changed slightly.

Gu Ruohan?

There's nothing good about this guy when he calls!

Li Beijue complained in his heart, hesitated for two seconds, and finally picked up the phone.

Then as soon as the connection was made, I heard the other party's loud voice asking on the other end of the phone; "Jeez! How are you doing? Is the chase going well? Do you need my military advisor to advise you?"

"No need." Li Beijue refused indifferently. Thinking of the "bar incident" last time, he wished to block the person on the other end of the phone.

However, Gu Ruohan did not give up and continued to speak: "Don't reject me in a hurry...I just used the wrong method last time, didn't I ask you to send roses later! How did it turn out? Did it work? Didn't she Super moved!"

"She..." Li Beijue's eyes flickered for a moment, thinking of Baobao Jiang's reaction last time, he didn't know how to answer for a while.

She...although she didn't look particularly happy, she didn't seem to be disgusted either?

"Hello? Why don't you talk? You can't even send flowers? How can anyone in this world refuse roses except for women with pollen allergies?"

Gu Ruohan was analyzing logically over there, and then suddenly thought of something, and asked, "By the way, where are you now? Do you want to come out and have a drink together..."

"Not now, I'm..." Li Beijue was halfway through when he suddenly thought of something.

He thought for a second, then asked quickly, "If you wanted to ask a woman out, what excuse would you use?"

"Oh?" Gu Ruohan was taken aback when he heard the words, smelled something different, and immediately asked gossip, "You want to ask Baby Jiang out on a date? Where are you two now?"

"I'm abroad, and I'm here on a business trip." Li Beijue answered briefly.

Gu Ruohan nodded thoughtfully on the other end of the phone, and after thinking for a second, he replied: "Based on the relationship between the two of you now, if you want to ask her out on a date, you definitely can't say it out loud, why don't you make a detour. Looking for another excuse?"

"Detour?" Li Beijue's eyes flickered for a moment, and he savored the two words carefully.

Then suddenly there was an idea.

"I know what to say now. Even if you have helped me this time, I will buy you a drink when I go back."

Li Beijue left a word and hung up the phone neatly.

in the room--

Jiang Baobao finally changed out of the big skirt on his body, and tidied up briefly.

Just as he was sitting by the bed, he heard someone knock on the door of the room.

"Please come in."

Jiang Baobao said something in a low voice, knowing that it was Li Beijue who had returned, he suddenly felt inexplicably nervous.

Tsk... It would be nice if there was one more quilt in this room, otherwise I would be able to make a bed on the floor!

In the past, when two people always quarreled, even if they slept on the same bed, they could still sleep...

But now that the relationship has eased, staying in the same room and sleeping in the same bed, why does everything feel weird?

Jiang Baobao thought about it, and then heard the door of the room being opened, and Li Beijue's figure appeared in front of him.

"Uh... I've packed it up, you go wash up and go to bed early."

Jiang Baobao subconsciously said something, and after finishing speaking, he wished he could bite his tongue off.

What are you talking about?

Why does it sound so weird... like inviting him to sleep with him?

Thinking about it, Jiang Baobao hurriedly took the water glass in front of him, trying to ease the embarrassment at this moment.

But Li Beijue seemed to chuckle slightly.

Jiang Baobao was stunned for a moment, then looked up subconsciously, but only saw a figure turning around and walking into the bathroom.

Her eyes flickered for a moment, and her eyes inadvertently glanced at the red sheets and quilt on the bed, and she felt more tight in her chest for a while.

How did I fall asleep in this room yesterday?

Why do you feel that everything you look at today is... embarrassing and strange?

Jiang Baobao took a deep breath, turned directly onto the bed, lay down on the side of the bed, and closed his eyes tightly.

Go to sleep quickly... you won't be embarrassed when you fall asleep!

As she thought about it, she tried to hypnotize herself in her mind.

But the more you want to fall asleep, the more awake your brain becomes.

Until the bathroom not far away, there was a sudden sound of the door opening.

Jiang Baobao opened his eyes almost immediately, his whole face was buried in the quilt, and he didn't dare to breathe.

Li Beijue's footsteps sounded in the room, and he stayed by the table for a few seconds, as if he was drinking water.

Then he walked towards the side of the bed.

The bed collapsed slightly for a moment.

Jiang Baobao blinked, subconsciously feeling the small voices and movements of the people around him.

The other half of the quilt was gently lifted, and a small gust of cold wind slipped in, but it was fleeting.

Jiang Baobao took a deep breath and suddenly felt his heart beating a little faster.

"are you asleep?"

Li Beijue's voice with a hint of a smile rang in his ears, and he moved slightly closer to Jiang Baobao.

Jiang Baobao subconsciously wanted to shake his head, but then realized that he was pretending to be asleep, and suddenly froze all over.

After hesitating for two seconds, he was still defeated in the end. He shook his head slightly, but kept his back to Li Beijue and did not turn around.

Li Beijue's eyes flickered for a moment, looking at her back curled up into a small ball, he asked in a low voice, "I have some free time tomorrow afternoon, do you want to go to the surrounding islands with me?"

"I..." Jiang Baobao habitually wanted to refuse.

Li Beijue didn't wait for her to finish, and interrupted directly: "It's a rare time, don't you want to bring back some special gifts for the little ones at home? I heard that there are many beautiful shells on the surrounding islands and conch."

He finished speaking unhurriedly, observing Jiang Baobao's reaction calmly.

Using the little guys in that family as an excuse... She shouldn't refuse, right?

Just as Li Beijue was thinking, he saw Jiang Baobao suddenly turn around, looked at him, and asked curiously, "Really? Are there really conch and shells over there?"

A smile flashed across Li Beijue's eyes, he nodded slightly, and replied in a low voice: "I also heard from Wilson, whether there is any, you can go and see tomorrow and you will know?"

"Then... well, I'll go with you tomorrow."

Jiang Baobao thought for two seconds, and finally agreed.

"Okay, then rest early."

Li Beijue carefully stretched out his hand and adjusted the light by the bed.

Jiang Baobao nodded and turned around again.

Immediately after hearing it, Li Beijue said in a deep voice, "Good night."

"Good night." Jiang Baobao replied subconsciously, a subtle emotion flashed in his heart, and he suddenly felt a little lucky.

It turns out... Li Beijue is considered gentle when he talks to people well...

Fortunately, I don't like him anymore!

If he had been so gentle back then, he might have fallen even deeper!
