Chapter 173 [Waste]

"Dad... why are you here..." Li Jingjing called softly.

Lao Li stood up from the stairs, with a cigarette in his hand, he had been sitting silently by himself before, as if he was thinking about something on his mind.

"It's not that I'm worried about you, come and take a look." Lao Li smiled kindly at Li Jingjing, then looked at Yang Chen, and said, "Xiao Yang, you're here too, we haven't seen each other for a long time."

Yang Chen saw that Lao Li was a little uncomfortable, he probably understood a little bit in his heart, and said with a smile: "Yeah, there are quite a lot of things these days, but I still buy breakfast at the vegetable market, but I haven't run into you very often."

Old Li nodded, hesitantly glanced between Li Jingjing and Yang Chen, "What... have you guys done?"

"Dad, Brother Yang took me to buy some furniture, and said he came here to see the house I live in." Li Jingjing explained, "Don't think too much about it."

Lao Li sighed, "Jingjing, don't blame me for talking too much. Your mother is not in a good mood these days. It's okay for you to move out by yourself, but you can't always ignore her words. It's a lifelong event, not a joke. of."

Li Jingjing lowered her head and remained silent.

Yang Chen knew that these words were actually meant for himself, but Lao Li was saving face for himself, and didn't directly let him leave Li Jingjing.

"Xiao Yang, don't blame me for talking too much, brother, I'm just a girl like Jingjing." Lao Li said dryly, "I heard from Jingjing that you are already married, so you should pay attention to the influence. If you leave It's not good for either of you to be close."

Yang Chen nodded in understanding, and looked at Li Jingjing, who had a pale face beside him, feeling helpless in his heart.

After all, I still haven't been able to enter the role of an ordinary person well. Indeed, as a parent, how can I tolerate my only daughter being with a married man? She is still so young, so beautiful, and so innocent.

I always oversimplify some things too naturally, often ignoring the feelings of ordinary people The throne of the gods who kill the gods at night begging for the devil, proud of the world, the strongest abandoned young man, the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty, the martial arts, the generals of the night, the gods, the seal of the gods, and the throne Mo Ao Shi Nine Heavens Strongest Abandoned Young Da Zhou Royal Family.

In the current situation, I really shouldn't embarrass Lao Li and his wife anymore. Perhaps it would be beneficial for everyone to keep a little distance from Li Jingjing.

"Jingjing, I'll go first, I can rest assured knowing that the place you live is safe, listen to your father, don't make your mother worry." Yang Chen said.

Li Jingjing's eyes were red, but she responded slightly, "Got it."

Yang Chen didn't stay any longer, and after greeting Lao Li, he left the apartment.

On the way back to the company, Yang Chen thought about a lot of happy scenes with Lao Li's family when he first returned to China. He really felt ashamed of their family, and made up his mind that even for the sake of their husband and wife, he should not contact Li Jingjing again.

Back in the company's office, a group of female publicists are busy. Even the youngest girls, who can't be idle on weekdays, are working hard, or they are constantly talking on the phone, trying to communicate with customers gently.

Yang Chen suddenly felt that he was a bit different. It was okay when everyone was idle on weekdays, but when he was busy, he seemed a little awkward in the office as an idler.

Walking to his seat, Yang Chen turned on the computer, and after playing the game for a while, Zhao Hongyan, who was closest, walked to Yang Chen with a document, put it on Yang Chen's desktop and said, "Yang Chen, help me with this document. Give the file to Sister Mingyu in the office, I'm going out to meet a client, thank you!"

After finishing speaking, Zhao Hongyan twisted the package in the red skirt and turned her tún, picked up the small leather bag and ran out in a hurry.

Yang Chen smiled speechlessly, picked up the file, walked to the door of Liu Mingyu's minister's office and knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

Yang Chen pushed the door away, this was the first time Yang Chen entered this office after Mo Qianni left office, and now the woman sitting on the minister's chair has been replaced by Liu Mingyu.

Seeing that the public relations officer who was bullied by Minister Ma became one of the company's top management, Yang Chen lamented how quickly time flies.

Liu Mingyu was facing the computer screen, typing something on the keyboard with both hands. Seeing Yang Chen enter the door, he was a bit surprised, but then he smiled softly.

"This is what Hongyan asked me to give you. She is busy meeting clients." Yang Chen put the document on the desk.

Liu Mingyu nodded, "Thank you."

Seeing that she was busy, Yang Chen turned around and planned to leave, but just as he was about to walk out the door, Liu Mingyu stopped him.

"Yang Chen, can you do me a favor?" Liu Mingyu asked.

"Of course, I'm the most idle in the whole department," Yang Chen said with a smile.

Liu Mingyu pursed his lips and gave him a blank look, "It's like this. In the afternoon, I plan to go to the autumn clothing show to meet with the person in charge of Donghua Technology. The models from various modeling agencies are already simulating the catwalk. I want to confirm the progress of the layout of the venue and see the status of the models' catwalks, can you accompany me there?"

Although he is already at the ministerial level of the company, Liu Mingyu did not buy a car for himself. On the one hand, it is because of the burden of the family.

Yang Chen naturally had no objection, although he didn't know why Liu Mingyu would let him accompany him, but it was more comfortable to be the driver than to sit in the office and be an unusual employee.

After Liu Mingyu cleaned up briefly, the two left the company and went to the Zhonghai International Convention and Exhibition Center, which was rented by the autumn clothing fair.

When he came to the convention and exhibition center, Zhang Ming, the project leader of Donghua Technology, was already waiting at the gate. He was a middle-aged man in a white shirt with a good appearance. He was about 1.8 meters tall, and he was considered a high-end white-collar worker with a dignified appearance. .

When Zhang Ming saw Liu Mingyu, he was obviously very excited, but when he saw Yang Chen who accompanied Liu Mingyu, his expression was not so natural.

Liu Mingyu gave Yang Chen a look, and Yang Chen suddenly realized, no wonder he suddenly asked him to come along, it turned out that the other party was not a good bird, and Liu Mingyu was also extra cautious after the incident with Minister Ma.

"Miss Liu is really a model of conscientiousness and responsibility. I didn't expect to come here to inspect it in person at such a late hour." Zhang Ming took the initiative to hold out his hand to Liu Mingyu.

Liu Mingyu smiled formulaically, and shook hands briefly with him, "The model's catwalk cannot be wrong, and the degree of fit with the runway is also very important. If you don't see the final result, you will always feel uneasy."

Feeling Liu Mingyu's wariness, Zhang Ming's face became more and more unsightly. He forced a smile and made a gesture of invitation, leading Liu Mingyu and Yang Chen into the venue.

As soon as he entered the convention and exhibition center, the powerful lighting effect inside made Yang Chen feel that the whole space was like a scene from a magical movie. On the clean runway, rows of tall models were wearing ordinary clothes and training their steps, preparing for the show in the near future. Final sprint.

Since the modeling agency is international, many of the models on the runway are blond and blue-eyed Westerners, which makes Yang Chen look a little nostalgic. After all, in the past, most of the years he saw were Western women. people.

Zhang Ming, the director of Donghua Science and Technology, knew that there was no chance to get close to Liu Mingyu today, so he simply said a reason and walked away first. After Liu Mingyu took Yang Chen around the exhibition center, he was relieved. He smiled and said: "It seems that there is no problem. The stage and lighting have achieved the expected effect. This task can basically be missed."

"Don't you need to flirt with the models?" Yang Chen asked.

Liu Mingyu smiled strangely and said, "You want to have sex. Seeing that your eyes have been aiming at those models, men are really not good things."

"I just look at their steps and postures from the perspective of pure appreciation. Appreciating beautiful things should not be considered a bad habit."

"I hope that's the case, otherwise I've misjudged you." Liu Mingyu said with a look of disbelief: "Don't drive away the wolf, let in a lion."

Yang Chen smiled, "Even if I'm a lion, you didn't put me in the gate, did you?"

Liu Mingyu blushed, the topic was a bit ambiguous, so she changed the subject and said, "To be honest, sometimes I really envy those models, they can always walk so confidently and fly so high."

"Everyone is poor, what is there to envy." Yang Chen muttered.

"Poor ass?" Liu Mingyu couldn't help giggling and said, "The reason why most of these international models have small buttocks is to better support all kinds of fashionable clothes. When you say it, they seem to be Like a poor airport.”

"It's all bones, I don't even feel it." Yang Chen lost interest.

"It seems like you're really someone else," Liu Mingyu gave him a disdainful look.

Yang Chen chuckled, why didn't it happen, there are quite a few, but it's meaningless to say such things.

"Actually, rather than envying them for their jobs, it's better to envy them for being able to show off the beauty of young girls freely. Looking at the models on the runway, he said, "I won't be afraid of your jokes if I tell you. In a year or two, I'll be on my way to the third year. But I haven't even worn a set of sexy clothes. I have never talked about a completed relationship, let alone those crazy and exciting things that young people do now... Sometimes when I think about it, I have come here after all these years."

"Don't you have a boyfriend for several years?" Yang Chen remembered that Liu Mingyu told him that her boyfriend went to serve in the army and never came back.

Liu Mingyu smiled miserably, "Yeah... I met him in college. He asked me to wait for him before he joined the army, but since he joined the army, he never contacted me again. Some of my friends said that if it was them, It's been a "mutiny" long ago, but I was afraid that he would come back one day and say that I failed his feelings, so I didn't find a boyfriend again. In fact, although I occasionally think of him, I sometimes remember what he looks like I don't know... am I too stupid?"

Yang Chen felt a little worthless for Liu Mingyu in his heart. After all, with her appearance, it was too expensive to waste so many green nets and wait for a man who was nowhere in sight. Not much to say, just said: "You think it's worth it."

"Is that so..." Liu Mingyu smiled faintly, "That's right."

Seeing that it was not early, Liu Mingyu suggested: "For the sake of working so hard as a driver and helping me keep flies away, let me treat you to dinner."

"Where are you going?" Yang Chen also felt hungry.

"The old place." Liu Mingyu blinked and said.
