Chapter 303: One day is like three autumns apart
Dong Lei was sitting on the sofa, staring blankly ahead, when suddenly a figure quickly approached him. He suddenly came to his senses, subconsciously sat up straighter, looked at the girl who suddenly appeared in front of him with a slightly puzzled look, and asked, "What's the matter?"
The girl blinked, raised her lips slightly, and said with a sly smile: "Did my dear and your boss have sex?" This sudden question caught Dong Lei off guard. His attention was instantly attracted by the first half of the sentence. He couldn't help but ask: "Who is your dear?"
The girl seemed a little surprised by his reaction, but she quickly replied, "It's Qiao Jingyu!" Hearing this name, Dong Lei was stunned at first, and then he nodded as if he remembered something and said, "Oh." However, after just a few seconds, a faint blush quietly climbed onto his cheeks. Because at this time, he realized what the girl was asking later - did you have sex?
Dong Lei tried hard to stay calm. He picked up the water cup on the table, took a sip as if nothing had happened, then put the cup down and replied calmly, "I don't know."
Mu Xuefei, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but frowned, staring at Dong Lei with suspicion, and asked, "How could you not know? Haven't you been following Duan Yuchen closely? Don't you know anything about this?"
Facing Mu Xuefei's aggressive questioning, Dong Lei remained calm and answered seriously, "I never eavesdrop, nor do I care about these gossips."
Hearing this, the excitement in Mu Xuefei's eyes dimmed instantly. She curled her lips helplessly, muttered a few words and complained, then turned around and sat down on the sofa again. After a moment of silence, she picked up the remote control and turned the TV to the news channel, watching it boredly. Not long after, Mu Xuefei stood up and walked slowly into the kitchen. After a while, she brought out a plate of juicy grapes. She walked to Dong Lei, put the plate on the coffee table, and asked with a smile, "Do you want to eat?"
Dong Lei shook his head.
"It's very sweet, try it."
Dong Lei continued to shake his head.
Mu Xuefei sat on the sofa holding a fruit plate, eating while watching TV.
Not long after, Qiao Jingyu went upstairs and Dong Lei went downstairs.
.......
At the beginning of the new semester, the sun was shining brightly, and the breeze gently blew the green trees and red flowers on campus. Qiao Jingyu and Mu Xuefei walked hand in hand to the school registration office. They talked and laughed along the way, and were in a particularly happy mood.
However, unlike other students, they did not choose to move back to the school dormitory, but continued to stay in the small house they rented before. The reason for this decision is that Mu Xuefei is pregnant, and living off campus can provide more convenience and comfort.
For them, this will be the last semester of their college life. After registration, the campus seems a little deserted, as most of the students have either joined busy jobs or started fulfilling internships. They only come back for important events that the school requires them to attend.
Mu Xuefei, on the other hand, spent most of her time resting and nurturing her baby. She knew that pregnancy required adequate rest and careful care, so apart from occasionally accepting some flexible requests from the TV station, she hardly left the house.
Let's talk about the entertainment city project that once caused a stir. Since the last accident, all the facilities in the haunted house have been dismantled and replanned. Because that accident sounded the alarm for everyone, both the construction party and the management party have become extremely cautious in the subsequent work. Just today, Yukang Company and Duan Group specially agreed to send people to inspect the progress of the project.
As the chief designer of the project, Qiao Jingyu shouldered a heavy responsibility and naturally could not miss this important inspection. She prepared early and went to the construction site with full expectations and a little trepidation...
When everyone arrived at the entrance of the construction site, the engineer from Duan Group received a call saying that Duan Yuchen would be coming over in a while, so everyone was waiting at the entrance.
When Qiao Jingyu heard that Duan Yuchen was coming, she was slightly startled. Duan Yuchen had been on a business trip four days ago. When did he come back? Why didn't he tell her in advance?
Although Qiao Jingyu was a little unhappy, that slight unhappiness was soon overwhelmed by her expectations. It was only four days since she last saw Duan Yuchen, but to her, it felt like a long time since they last met. This feeling was probably what is called "one day without seeing you feels like three years apart"!
Time passed slowly, and about a quarter of an hour later, a jet-black, luxurious Rolls-Royce stopped steadily at the entrance of the construction site. Seeing this, Qiao Fukang hurried forward to greet it.
As the car door slowly opened, everyone's eyes were first attracted by a pair of shiny black leather shoes, and then their eyes moved up along the pair of slender and straight legs. The next moment, Duan Yuchen's tall and straight figure was like a beautiful landscape, unreservedly displayed in front of Qiao Jingyu.
When Qiao Jingyu's eyes met Duan Yuchen, she felt a warmth in her eyes, and tears almost burst out. That deep and three-dimensional face seemed to be carefully carved by a master sculptor; the snow-white shirt on his body was spotless and smooth without even a wrinkle; the trousers on his lower body were straight and upright, as if they were tailor-made. Everything was so familiar and kind that she couldn't help but want to run over, hug him tightly, bury her head deep in his chest, and whisper her endless longing for him these days.
But I can’t do that now. Not only is Qiao Fukang here, but there are also many people coming to accept the project.
The last time Duan Yuchen went to the Qiao family, Qiao Fukang had clearly expressed that he did not agree with them being together. He asked several times later, and Qiao Jingyu had no choice but to say that the two of them were no longer dating and were just ordinary friends.
Qiao Jingyu tried hard to control her emotions and did not rush towards Duan Yuchen recklessly. Instead, she followed everyone's footsteps to go directly to this powerful man.
After some greetings, the group put on their safety helmets and entered the construction site together.
When they arrived in front of the haunted house, Duan Yuchen was the first to speak, "It's a small space in here, so there's no need for everyone to go in." He then turned his head and said to Qiao Fukang, "Just arrange for two people to go in."
Qiao Fukang nodded and said respectfully, "Okay, Mr. Duan!"
Duan Yuchen frowned slightly when he heard the word "General Manager Duan". Then he said to Duan's chief engineer, "On our side, you and Miss Qiao can go in. The rest of us can go inspect the periphery and check other places."
