Marriage Crisis: Lonely Apricot Blossom

Chapter 17 Meeting again, but unable to become a passerby (2)
The next day, Yan Jia's seat was moved to the place closest to Fang Zhenqian's office so that he could be there on call. If the office door was open, Fang Zhenqian could observe Yan Jia's every move at any time. Yan Jia hated and felt helpless. .

"Yan Jia!" Fang Zhenqian called her, this was the fifth time since this morning.

Yan Jiahu went in with a straight face.

"I think," Fang Zhengan touched his nose, "may I have a cup of coffee?"

Yan Jia was making coffee roughly in the tea room, and Aju happened to pass by.

"Hey, how does it feel to have a new boss?"

Yan Jia snorted and searched in the cabinet, and finally found a bottle containing dark yellow powder.

"What is this?" She asked Aju.

"Pepper, Chen Jun and the others used it when they ordered instant noodles." Aju poured herself a glass of water, straightened up and said.

"Hey, I want to ask you a question. Is that handsome guy surnamed Fang good?" Aju looked very interested.

Yan Jia sprinkled pepper in the coffee and said, "Whenever I get kicked out by him, you can try it."

Aju stared at her actions dumbfounded, "Are you out of your mind? Do you want to add pepper to your coffee?"

Yan Jia smiled strangely, "I specially prepared this for the new boss, he must like it." After finishing speaking, she proudly brought the "special coffee" out of the tea room with her graceful waist.

Aju gasped behind her, "She doesn't have to choose this way of death if she wants to die, does she?"

After entering the office, Yan Jia respectfully put the coffee on the table.

"Take a sip." Her tone was sweet and soft, and she stood aside with interest.

Fang Zhenqian was reading a document, and when he heard the words, he raised his head and glanced at her, and her sneaky face naturally fell into his eyes, but he didn't ask anything, and smiled lightly, "Thank you!" Then he took the cup to his mouth.

Yan Jia couldn't help but raised her hand to hold her chest, nervously waiting for the ugly expression he sprayed out, but was shocked to find that he took a sip calmly and put the cup back to its original position.

How can this be?

She used up half a bottle of pepper, could it be expired?No, I accidentally sniffed it just now, and I was so choked that I sneezed.

After a while, Fang Zhenqian raised his head from the document again, seeing that she had no intention of leaving, he asked in surprise, "Do you have anything else to do?"

"I..." Yan Jia blurted out, "Don't you think this coffee is a bit special?"

"Really?" Fang Zhenqian picked it up again, sniffed it, and smiled, "It seems a little bit."

Yan Jia was completely depressed. When she walked out of the office, Aju came up and said nervously, "You are screwed, how dare you frame the leader." Then she leaned her body and secretly watched Fang Zhenqian in the office.

Fang Zhenqian was still immersed in the reading materials, occasionally raising his coffee cup to take a sip.

"That, is it pepper coffee?" Aju felt incredible.

"Yeah." Yan Jia replied sullenly.

"It's too scary, this brother is so perverted." Aju acted in panic, gnawing her little finger desperately.

Fang Zhenqian drank the special coffee Yan Jia gave him with interest. He knew that she had tampered with it. The numbing and spicy taste on the tip of her tongue and on the wall of her mouth mixed with the unique bitterness of coffee, just like Yan Jia's attitude towards him. He savored it carefully, without frowning, and felt a little comfort in his heart. He made up his mind to come to her, but he was not sure of her reaction. As long as she didn't run away, as long as she paid attention to him, even if what was served was Poison, he would swallow without hesitation.

Yan Jia is like a hedgehog whose thorns are all exploded, she is on guard against this "new boss" all day long, but to her surprise, Fang Zhenqian doesn't seem to pay too much attention to her. There are few businesses, including many old relationship households in S City and surrounding cities, who have transferred some new development projects out of trust in him. Naturally, he can't live up to this kindness. He is also the person in charge of several projects, so busy that he wears stars and wears moons.

Yan Jia and Fang Zhenqian are busy with their own affairs every day, and there is no unnecessary nonsense. She doesn't talk about the past, and he doesn't mention it. The two people who used to have the closest relationship are now in and out of the same office. A polite superior and superior, Yan Jia felt that God had played a joke on her.

After a while, even she herself believed that it might be pure coincidence that she and Fang Zhenqian could meet here.

Fang Zhenqian's self-discipline and kind personality and thoughtful and meticulous work style not only satisfied Lin Lei, but also won the general respect of his subordinates. For some difficult problems that caused headaches for his colleagues, he only needed a few words to make his thoughts clear. From this it suddenly became clear.

Only Yan Jia, when she heard others praise Fang Zhenqian, she couldn't help but pull down her face, feeling a little sour in her heart, and said a few sarcastic remarks on the side, causing her colleagues to look at her sideways.

"Comrade Xiao Yan, even if the atmosphere of democracy prevails in our company, you can't use it to such a rascal level, aren't you afraid of Tang Seng's curse?" This is Chen Jun's tone.

It is undeniable that even Yan Jia secretly admires Fang Zhenqian's ability and achievements sometimes, but of course, she would never admit it on the surface.

On certain nights, Fang Zhenqian met Yan Jia and Aju who were also working overtime late downstairs by accident, and insisted on taking them home. If there was only Yan Jia, she would never get in the car, but some It's different when Aju is here, because every time Aju jumps into the passenger seat with lightning speed, and then warmly greets Yan Jia to get in the car.If Yan Jia insisted on refusing, it would look weird, so she had to reluctantly get into the back seat and listen to the two people in front chatting nonsense.

"Mr. Fang, do you have any suggestions for the ERP planning of the material department?"

"I think the case of xx company is very difficult. Does Mr. Fang have any opinions?"

"If the client won't filter out conditions that we find repetitive or meaningless, how do we convince them?"

Aju always had a lot of problems, and as they got acquainted with each other and Fang Zhenqian's easy-going attitude, the problems became more and more subtle.

"Where is Mr. Fang's origin?"

"What did Mr. Fang do before?"

"Why did Mr. Fang come to Hangzhou?"

"Is Mr. Fang married?"

This last question made Yan Jia's eyebrows twitch, he turned his head aside, and looked out of the window illuminated by the night light.

Fang Zhenqian looked at Yan Jia from the rearview mirror, he was at a loss for words, and after a long time he said: "We got married, and we left again."

"Ah? Is that so!" Aju couldn't help sticking out her tongue, and said with a chuckle, "What a pity, that's... which Hong Xing cheated?"

Yan Jia coughed fiercely in the back seat.

Fang Zhenqian glanced at her quickly, and asked with concern: "Are you okay, do you want to open the window to get some air?" The air conditioner in the car was really stuffy.

Yan Jia said harshly, "No need."

Fortunately, it will be here in a while.

After getting out of the car, Aju was still thinking about the unanswered question just now.

"You said, is Mr. Fang's divorce his problem or his wife's problem?"

Yan Jia said unhappily: "How would I know." He walked up the stairs quickly while talking.

One night, Aju was moaning and sighing, Yan Jia didn't bother to talk to her, and took a bath and tidied up by herself.

Before going to bed, Aju ran over again and stood at Yan Jia's door and said very seriously: "I think, in Mr. Fang's failed marriage, there are nine out of ten problems with Mr. Fang, what do you think?"

Yan Jia felt better and didn't answer, just hummed and laughed.

But Aju felt infinitely disappointed, "Oh, men with a little money these days are not good things, they can only be seen from a distance, but not get close! So, if I want to find someone in the future, I still have to find someone who lives an honest life and is at ease. "

Yan Jia couldn't help laughing, "Expert, you are very right, but it's too late now, let's go to bed quickly." After speaking, she gently pushed Aju into her room.

When she went to work the next day, Yan Jia's complexion was obviously not good, and her old problem of stomach pain happened again.

After walking around the office a few times, I couldn't hold on anymore, so I had to lie down on the table and rest for a while.

Aju shouted to her from the copier: "Yan Jia, we are running out of paper, hurry up and get some paper."

Yan Jia gritted her teeth, took a deep breath, and was about to stand up, but Fang Zhenqian grabbed two packs of paper in front of her and quickly passed them to Aju.

Aju thanked her repeatedly, while complaining to Yan Jia, "If you don't want to eat something in the morning, it's all right now, I have to do double duty!"

Fang Zhenqian walked up to Yan Jia, and before she could react, he quickly touched her forehead with his hand.Yan Jia belatedly raised her hand to block it and glared at him, but Fang Zhenqian didn't care.

"Should I take you to the hospital?" He said softly.

Yan Jia said coldly: "No need, it will be fine in a while."

He stood in front of her and refused to leave.

"Mr. Fang, Manager Zhao from XX Company is looking for you." Someone shouted in the distance.

Fang Zhengan had no choice but to go and listen.

He drove out 10 minutes later.

After resting for a while, drinking some hot water, her stomach improved slightly. In order to shut up the busy Aju, Yan Jia went over with a pale face and took over the work she should have done by herself.

When he returned to his seat, he found that Fang Zhenqian had already returned.

"Yan Jia, come in." He called from inside.

Yan Jia walked in and saw Fang Zhenqian holding two boxes of medicine in his hand.

"I just bought this. You ate it when you had a stomachache. Try it."

Her expression froze for a moment, and she walked out without saying a word. However, Fang Zhenqian quickly grabbed an arm.

Yan Jia turned to look at him and said angrily, "Let go! I don't need your hypocritical concern."

Fang Zhenqian looked at her intently, his eyes full of love and compassion, he said in a soft but unquestionable tone: "Be obedient." Then he stuffed the medicine into her hand.

A year ago, these two words often rang in Yan Jia's ears, gentle, pampering, and irresistible. Every time he said this, she would pout for a while and then surrender.

But now, the same person said the same sentence to her, but they could only look at each other from a distance, as if separated by thousands of mountains. This dream-like consciousness filled Yan Jia with sorrow and resentment in his heart, but his eyes were filled with sadness and resentment. Get wet.

Chen Jun rushed in, seeing this scene, he was stunned on the spot, tongue tied and said: "I, Mr. Fang, she..."

Yan Jia shook off Fang Zhenqian's hand angrily, wiped it on her face without showing any traces, and walked out quickly with her head down.

Fang Zhenqian, who was sitting inside talking with Chen Jun, caught sight of Yan Jia lingering on the seat in contradiction for a moment, finally took out the stomach medicine, poured the granules into a cup, and then walked towards the tea room with a sad face, his face couldn't help but twitched. An imperceptible smile.

From then on, every morning, a box of exquisite pastries would be placed on Yan Jia's table, unshakeable.

There is a phenomenon called rumors, also known as gossip, which quietly surged in the office, until one day, Zhang Kai from the old project team couldn't help but tease Yan Jia, "Do you think Mr. Fang is interested in you?"

Yan Jia was fully armed immediately, raised his eyebrows and said, "Stop talking nonsense!"

Chen Jun also came over and said: "I can testify this, he really can't fight back when he beats you, and he can't fight back when he scolds you. Think about it, who else in our place can enjoy such an honor except you, Wukong, you finally want to Instantly became a Buddha."
