Chapter 116 Partial Snow
Chapter 116 Partial Snow
"Hello Ni."
"Ok?"
"I will quit drinking." Li Yucheng's Adam's apple rolled back and forth, and then he said, "I will quit smoking too."
Ni Hao didn't understand why her father suddenly said this, but she nodded and said yes.
As the videotape ended, there was a sudden screeching sound of brakes at the door.
"What's going on?" Ni Jia came out after hearing the noise.
Li Yucheng walked over and said it was okay, then ran to the car and talked to him for a few words.
Immediately afterwards, the workers got off the car, opened the trunk and lifted down a huge Christmas elk and two snow-making machines.
In less than twenty minutes, the lawn in the yard turned white and the elk's entire body glowed after being electrified.
Chen Mi sobered up a little when she heard the noise. She came out to take a closer look. She was stunned by the scene.
The snow machines were still spraying out snow, and the Christmas trees, bushes, walkways, and everything in sight were covered in white.
"What?" She leaned against Ni Jia's shoulder and laughed, "It's snowing in some places tonight."
The two sisters had never seen artificial snow before, and they had a lot of fun in the yard, their hair and clothes were covered with snow, and they smiled at Ni Jia while holding the fake snow.
"Mommy! It's snowing!"
Another car came from behind, and this time... there really was Santa Claus, carrying a big bag and constantly taking out gifts.
Ni Jia thought that this was probably the surprise from Taiping, and Li Yucheng moved everything here.
"Awesome!" Chen Mi gave a thumbs up: "As expected, they own a shopping mall and moved the event directly to their home."
Ni Jia covered her mouth and turned to glance sideways: "More?"
"No." Chen Mi shook her head, stretched out her hand to take some, twisted it on her fingertips, and complained: "Is this snow real or fake?"
Ni Jia stood against the wall, watching the man being pulled away by the child, getting covered in sweat.
Even Li Yucheng himself probably never thought that there would be such a day when his image of cleanliness, coldness and self-restraint would be completely destroyed.
"Are you free the day after tomorrow?" Cheng Wenbo suddenly appeared at the door and handed Ni Jia a cup of hot tea.
"what happened?"
"My mother asked you to help her find a cheongsam." Cheng Wenbai leaned against the door with his arms folded across his chest, smiling.
"Your mother?"
"His and my dad's wedding anniversary is coming up soon." Cheng Wenbo still smiled: "This year is exactly 30 years."
Ni Jia keenly sensed a hint of intention: "I guess I can't choose the right one."
“Aren’t you a designer?
“I sell children’s clothes.”
Cheng Wenbo raised his eyebrows but said nothing. It was not the first day they knew each other. Ni Jia majored in design and had many manuscripts of dresses. It seemed a bit fake to use this as an excuse to shirk responsibility.
"You can't go wrong with some sober, elegant colors."
"Then I will help you reject her?"
Ni Jia lowered his head and drank a sip of hot tea, feeling a bit caught in a dilemma. Although Cheng Wenbo had his own thoughts, it was Mrs. Cheng who invited him after all.
In the future, Jia Mi will have to cooperate with Cheng’s, so it is reasonable for her to help with this matter. Ni Jia thought about it and finally decided to call Chen Mi.
"Row."
"I'll pick you up then."
"No, just send me the address."
Cheng Wenbo glanced at his watch, put down his hands and prepared to leave: "It's settled then, see you at 2pm the day after tomorrow."
After saying that, he picked up his coat, went into the "snow", said hello to the child, and left.
Li Yucheng came over, shook off the "snow" on his body, and immediately a patch of white fell at his feet: "What are you talking about?"
"Hair." Ni Jia reminded him.
The other person lowered his head and weighed the end of his hair, and the white spot on top of his head remained standing intact.
"Here." Ni Jia pointed in a direction. Li Yucheng looked at her, took a step closer and lowered his head. She had no choice but to reach out to help take it away.
The distance was close and the movements seemed ambiguous. Li Yucheng hadn't eaten anything all night. In this position, he could smell the perfume on Ni Jia's body.
Of course, there was also the black tea in her hand. This cup of tea seemed to be given by Cheng Wenbo. Li Yucheng's eyes darkened, and he leaned over and drank it in one gulp without hesitation.
"Eh..." Ni Jia was too late to stop him, the cup was already empty.
Li Yucheng wiped the tea stains from the corners of his mouth with his thumb, then raised his eyebrows after getting up, looking a little unhappy: "Can't bear to leave?"
Ni Jia's expression was indescribable: "Isn't it hot?"
After this reminder, the tip of his tongue seemed to feel a little pain belatedly. Li Yucheng pouted his cheek and stood up straight: "Is it clean?"
It was clean, but Li Yucheng was wearing a sweater, and the color of the sweater was obviously darker after the snow melted.
The weather was so cold, Ni Jia was worried that catching a cold would make her stomach hurt more, so she suggested, "Go back and change your clothes."
"It's okay." Li Yucheng looked at her and suddenly stretched out his hand. Ni Jia subconsciously dodged backwards, and the hand froze in mid-air, raised in a half-awkward manner.
She looked towards the inner room vigilantly and asked in a low voice: "What are you doing?"
Li Yucheng directly pulled the hems of his clothes and pulled him back to him. He raised his eyebrows and looked a little unhappy: "Why are you hiding?"
"Are you afraid of being seen?"
The buttons were fastened one by one, and Ni Jia stood there passively, his face feeling a little hot, his eyes unconsciously swept towards the inner room, hoping that no one would come out at this moment.
"You haven't answered yet, what were you talking about with him just now?"
"Please help me." Ni Jia said vaguely.
The more she dodged, the more Li Yucheng could sense the trick: "What help?"
When the last button was put in place, Ni Jia pushed it and the two of them returned to a safe distance of half a meter. If the other party knew about this, they would definitely be angry again.
Ni Jia chose his words carefully: "It's not an important matter. Chen Mi will go too."
"Really?" Li Yucheng stared at him without blinking: "Then why don't you dare to say it out loud?"
Because you are narrow-minded, you will be angry and glare at me later, Ni Jia complained inwardly.
The two sisters were running around the yard like crazy, their faces were covered with only a pair of eyes showing. Ni Jia walked downstairs while saying, "It's dirty, don't put it on your face."
It was obvious that he was trying to change the subject. Li Yucheng frowned, walked over, grabbed Ni Jia's wrist, and put his arm directly into his arms.
"Are you going to tell me yourself, or should I ask?"
"Let go." Ni Jia struggled, and saw the other party's face began to change, and the fierceness between his eyebrows and eyes was revealed: "It's just choosing clothes, don't make a fuss."
"Do you want to help him choose clothes?" Li Yucheng's tone turned cold: "Ni Jia?"
"It's Mrs. Cheng, Cheng Wenbo's mother." The more he spoke, the worse his expression became. Ni Jia had expected this to happen: "That's why I asked Chen Mi to come."
"Don't go!"
"We still have cooperation, it's hard to refuse."
"Cooperation is a public matter," Li Yucheng said firmly, leaving no room for negotiation. "This is abusing public power for personal gain. Can't you see that?"
Ni Jia didn't say anything. Of course she knew it, so she planned to take this opportunity to completely resolve Cheng Wenbo's delusion.
"You're not allowed to go."
"I've agreed." Ni Jia's tone softened, not wanting to upset the other party tonight: "I'm going to solve the problem, Li Yucheng."
