Pretend to be straight

Lu Zhi's probationary period in this company was three months. At the end of August, she became a full-time employee of this company, and her salary was higher than before.

Because he got along well with several colleagues, Lu Zhi decided to invite them to dinner on Friday night.

Including Lu Zhi, there are six people in total, four girls and two boys.

Because it wasn't because of the mandatory dinner at work, everyone didn't seem unhappy at all, and happily walked to a western restaurant in a shopping mall not far from the company.

I couldn't think of what to eat, I looked through the gourmet software, and finally decided to eat steak, and everyone agreed.

When we got to the western restaurant and took a seat, Lu Zhi rolled his eyes and said, "You can order as you like, don't be polite to me."

Among the pedestrians, only Lu Zhi drives to and from get off work every day, and the others either use the subway or the bus.

Lian Suan touched Lu Zhi, she opened the menu, glanced at Lu Zhi, and smiled: "Do you think we will be polite to you?"

"That's right, Lu Zhi, we won't leave unless we beat you up tonight." A boy named Li Kai raised the corners of his lips slightly as he looked at Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi didn't speak, but made a "please" gesture.

After a while, after several people ordered their meals, Lu Zhi's cell phone lit up beside him, and then the bell rang.

She stood up and said to these colleagues, "I'll answer the phone first."

"Go."

The call was from Shi Jinghe, and the note Lu Zhi gave her was no longer "mobile phone number", but "lover".

Needless to say, the meaning contained in the word "lover", when Lu Zhi's screen lit up, Suan Suan accidentally spotted it.

After Lu Zhi went to answer the phone, Suan Suan pursed his lips and asked, "Have you met Zhi Zhi's husband?"

Everyone shook their heads: "No."

Li Kai asked: "Have you seen it?"

"No..." Suan Suan shook her head, "She wears the ring on her ring finger all the time, and several times before, another car drove her to and from get off work. I don't know if it is her husband."

A girl named Zheng Qin shook her head: "But I remember the supervisor said that Zhizhi is unmarried..."

"Is it possible that they are fiancee?"

"We'll ask again when she comes back later. I've been interested in it for a long time."

"Well, okay, don't let her go tonight."

At this time, Lu Zhi was talking on the phone with Shi Jinghe outside the shop.

The interior of the mall is designed in a circular shape. Lu Zhi stood inside the railing, looking down at the children who were playing games on the first floor.

Passers-by passed behind her, and strangers stood beside her, Lu Zhi laughed while listening to the phone.

"I don't know how to drink, and I have to drive home."

"Huh? Are you coming to pick me up?"

"Sister, are you sure?"

"Okay, then when I'm almost done eating, I'll send you a message."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Zhi sighed, she knew why Shi Jinghe had to come to pick her up.

Because in the days when she became a full-time employee, she didn't spend time with Shi Jinghe first, but had dinner with her colleagues.

Lu Zhi rubbed his face, hoping that Shi Jinghe wouldn't be really angry, otherwise she wouldn't know how to coax her.

And she didn't plan like this originally, her initial plan was to find Shi Jinghe, but Shi Jinghe said at noon that she had to work overtime today, and it might be late when she returned at night, so she told Lu Zhi not to wait for her .

Otherwise, Lu Zhi would not choose to kill two birds with one stone and invite his colleagues to dinner today.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhi couldn't help but sighed, and re-entered the restaurant.

As soon as she entered the restaurant, Lu Zhi noticed something was wrong with the eyes of her colleagues. She sat down and said strangely, "Have I got blemishes on my face? Look at me like that."

Suan Suan tapped frequently on the table with her fingertips, she glanced at the ring on Lu Zhi's left ring finger, and asked first, "Zhi Zhi, haven't you and your husband talked about it yet?"

Lu Zhi was still drinking the drink they poured for her, but when she heard this question, she successfully choked.

Li Kai handed her a tissue, Lu Zhi waved his hand and coughed to say no, she took out a handkerchief from her bag and wiped it herself, Li Kai's eyes darkened, silently withdrew her hand and put it under the table to hold it.

Because of coughing, Lu Zhi's eyes became more moist, and Lian Lian put down the hand that patted her on the back.

Lu Zhi was a little puzzled: "Why did you ask this all of a sudden?"

"Because Zhizhi, you are very mysterious. We only saw you wearing a ring, but never mentioned your husband or fiance."

These colleagues don't know "ZZZZ" on the Internet, which makes Lu Zhi feel very good, but judging from the current situation, they seem to have misunderstood themselves.

Lu Zhi didn't answer the previous question, she just said: "She will pick me up after dinner, maybe you will see her."

Li Kai smiled: "Then I really want to go... I look forward to seeing my brother-in-law."

Zheng Qin patted him on the shoulder: "Oh, brother-in-law is called, you are not much older than Zhizhi." After she finished speaking, she asked Lu Zhi curiously, "So Zhizhi, are you older or him? "

This "he" of course refers to Lu Zhi's lover.

"She's two years older than me." Lu Zhi still didn't say that her lover was a woman, she didn't hide it deliberately, anyway, they might know that it was "she" and not "he" in a short time.

"Then Lu Zhi, how long have you been together?"

"The nine-month anniversary was the other day."

The tissue in Li Kai's hand was already wrinkled by him, and he also asked, "Were you friends before or...?"

Lu Zhi didn't answer, because at this time the waiter just came up with the steaks, and when he bent down to put the plates, he separated them.

And then the topic moved away from Lu Zhi's lover, and started to talk about other topics, such as what gossip news happened in the company next door, such as the waiter brother in the coffee shop opposite last week who smiled shyly because of his handsome face Someone took a video, and now that coffee shop has a lot of customers visiting him, and the business has improved a lot because of this.

Lu Zhi just listened quietly, and the incident at the coffee shop reminded her of herself who was photographed before.

Time passed quickly, and it had been so long since that incident, Lu Zhi felt a little sad for a moment.

Her "emotions" for that video are very complicated, because without this video, the outbreak of the biggest problem between herself and Shi Jinghe might be delayed a little bit, but at the same time, the feeling of being photographed and posted on the Internet is really not good. Well, even though she praises her a lot.

After a while, Lu Zhi sent Shi Jinghe a message saying that he could come over.

Shi Jinghe looked like it might take more than 20 minutes to get here from "selling love", Lu Zhi said in advance that he was right.

After Shi Jinghe answered, he said that he would come right away.

Lu Zhi put away his phone, and saw his colleagues looking at him again.

She picked up the cup and drank some water to moisten her throat, and asked, "Do you want to ask me anything again?"

"Is he coming soon?" Suan Suan gossiped a lot.

Lu Zhi bent her lips and nodded: "Yes." She said, "Maybe more than 20 minutes."

Li Kai raised his hand and looked at the watch on his wrist, and said, "Then we can go downstairs at ten past seven, and Lu Zhi's... lover may just arrive by then."

"it is good."

It was ten past seven without knowing it. Everyone picked up their clothes and bags, and left the restaurant one after another.

The restaurant is on the fifth floor. On the way to the elevator, Lu Zhi received a call from Shi Jinghe. Shi Jinghe said that she had arrived, and she said that she was waiting for her at the newsstand outside the mall.

Lu Zhi said, "Okay."

A group of people entered the elevator, and there were some strangers, so the elevator was a bit crowded.

The weather at the end of August, even at night, but the air is still hot now, Lu Zhi felt like a steamed stuffed bun, suffering in a steamer.

After getting out of the elevator, she felt less uncomfortable.

Lianlian looked up at the gate from a long distance, but she couldn't see clearly through the glass, so she asked, "Zhizhi, where is he?"

"It's no wonder you can see clearly from such a distance now." Lu Zhi laughed.

The newsstand is on the side of the road, and there is still a certain distance from the gate of the shopping mall. Lu Zhi himself did not see Shi Jinghe, let alone Suan Suan, after all Suan Suan thought her "lover" was a man.

It's not because Lu Zhi dare not say that his lover is a woman, but because he will see her soon, so there is really no need for it.

It was the first time Suan Suan and the others asked her such a question, and they had never gossiped about it before.

It didn't take long for them to come out.

Friday night was very lively. The working party started the weekend, and the students were also on vacation. There were not a few people coming and going outside the mall.

Lu Zhi saw a figure at the newsstand by the roadside at a glance. Shi Jinghe was wearing a knee-length red dress when he went to work today. At this moment, there was a woman in a knee-length red dress reading a book standing at the newsstand. .

The back view alone is very beautiful, and when pedestrians pass by, they also look slightly sideways.

After looking around, Li Kai pursed his lower lip and asked, "Lu Zhi, where is he?"

"I'll call her first." Lu Zhi took out his mobile phone and called Shi Jinghe.

In two seconds, Shi Jinghe answered, she also turned around at the same time, and before she could say anything, she saw Lu Zhi, and the smile on his face still moved her heart.

Without saying a word, he hung up the phone.

Suan Suan's eyes widened, and she asked puzzledly, "Did he not answer?"

Lu Zhi shook his head: "No, she's here."

Suan Suan: "I didn't see anyone."

Lu Zhi raised his chin in the direction Shi Jinghe came from: "There."

A group of people looked in her direction, and then: ...? !

Before Shi Jinghe walked in front of her, Lu Zhi took a few steps towards her and asked, "Are you hungry? There is a store in this shopping mall that sells your favorite dishes, maybe you can go in and have a look. "

"No need." Shi Jinghe looked at her and shook his head lightly, "Let's go back and order takeaway."

"Row."

Lianlian watched all this, she swallowed her saliva, and then raised a smile: "Zhizhi, why don't you introduce yourself?"

"Yes, I actually forgot to introduce, this is my lover."

After parking the car in the underground parking lot of the apartment, Shi Jinghe didn't rush to unbuckle her seat belt, she looked sideways at Lu Zhi: "Does the boy on the right like you?"

"Huh?" Lu Zhi thought about it for a while, "You mean Li Kai?"

Shi Jinghe frowned and thought about it: "It seems so, he looked at me with unbelievable and hostile eyes." She said, "There is no other reason than liking you."

Lu Zhi shook his head: "No, you were delusional."

Shi Jinghe insisted: "I don't think so."

"You are really delusional this time, because he didn't have any behavior to express his different emotions for me."

"Probably because you're wearing a wedding ring."

"Sister Jinghe, are you jealous?" Lu Zhi exaggeratedly slapped him out of the car, smiled and sighed, "Oh, so sour."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Jinghe quickly unfastened his seat belt, leaned towards her, and pressed her shoulders against the back of the chair.

Shi Jinghe chuckled before bowing his head: "I'm not jealous, I'm jealous of you."
