Zhao Yi called him generously: “Mr. Shen, long time no see.”
Shen Mo exchanged pleasantries with him.
After just a few words, Ji Mingxuan glanced over. Shen Mo immediately understood and hurriedly took out the cufflinks he had just bought and put them on him.
Zhao Yi couldn’t bear to watch it, so he said goodbye to the two of them, waved and left.
Ji Mingxuan matched the cufflinks with the rings, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and his mood obviously jumped to a higher level.
It was already late, so the two of them found a restaurant nearby to have dinner. Shen Mo had already figured out Ji Mingxuan’s preferences, so he ordered all the dishes he liked.
While eating, Ji Mingxuan suddenly asked, “Why don’t you ask what the relationship between me and Zhao Yi is?”
Shen Mo said “Oh” and asked, “What’s the relationship?”
Ji Mingxuan said: “Because of work needs, we have only had a few meals together.”
Shen Mo still said: “Oh.”
In fact, even if the two of them really had something going on, it was a few years ago. Why would he drink this old vinegar? But Mr. Ji was obviously not satisfied with his reaction, and he kept a straight face throughout the whole process.
Shen Mo felt that his mood swings were becoming more and more serious, and he was tending to become like Ji Ning.
When they were almost done eating, Sister Chen called and said that Ji Ning was making a fuss and refused to eat, so they both hurried back.
Ji Ning was a little upset after not seeing them for the whole afternoon. Not only did he refuse to eat, but he also cried a lot, with tears rolling down his cheeks. Shen Mo was so distressed that he tried to coax and deceive him, and finally took out his mobile phone to play games with him for a while, and finally coaxed him to laugh.
Sister Chen reheated the cold food. Ji Ning ate half a bowl of it obediently. After the meal, he lay on the sofa and played with his phone with Shen Mo.
Ji Mingxuan said, “Watch your eyes,” and went into the room to look at the documents. He had rested for a day, and still had a lot of work to catch up on. But not long after he looked, he heard Ji Ning shouting in the living room, “Dad, dad! Come quickly! Come quickly!”
Ji Mingxuan rubbed his brows, put down the documents and walked out.
Ji Ning and Shen Mo were laughing at their phones, not knowing what they had seen. Ji Ning waved his arms and called him, “Dad, come and see!”
Ji Mingxuan quickly stepped forward and walked around them to take a look. Only then did he realize that the selfie function of the phone was turned on, and the faces of the three people were reflected in the camera. Shen Mo was quick-witted and quickly pressed the camera button.
Click.
After the flash went off, the picture was frozen.
In the photo, Ji Ning and Shen Mo were smiling happily, while Ji Mingxuan was frowning slightly. The three of them were very close.
Shen Mo looked at the phone and said, “Mr. Ji is too serious.”
Jining shouted, “Show me! Show me!”
The two people started discussing.
”The photos are great. I’ll develop them in a few days and put them in my wallet.”
”Xiao Ning wants one too!”
”But Xiao Ning doesn’t have a wallet, where are you going to put it?”
”Hmm…” Ji Ning thought for a moment and said, “Just put it together with my New Year’s money.”
”good.”
Ji Ning cheered happily, turned around and saw Ji Mingxuan still standing next to him, so he waved his hand and said, “Dad can go now.”
Shen Mo also said: “Mr. Ji, please continue to work.”
It looks like he will be thrown away after being used.
Ji Mingxuan had nothing to say. He stood there silently for a while, then turned around and went back to his room.
Shen Mo was naturally tormented again that night. He didn’t even want to go to bed the last night and then got up late, but he still went to the studio in the afternoon to supervise the work and asked Yang Yue to help him develop photos.
Yang Yue had met Ji Mingxuan before, and when she first knew that this person was the future boss lady, her expression of shock was far more than a magnitude 10 earthquake. However, Yang Yue quickly accepted this setting, and praised Shen Mo for his good vision, saying that Mr. Ji was super handsome. She followed Shen Mo and called him Mr. Ji, and never called him the boss lady again.
Shen Mo felt slightly disappointed.
Fortunately, Yang Yue’s work efficiency was very high, and she finished developing the photos in just two days. Shen Mo thought the effect was good, and not only did he use it in his own wallet, he also replaced the one in Ji Mingxuan’s wallet.
Ji Mingxuan disagreed at first, but this weak resistance was quickly suppressed by Shen Mo. Ji Mingxuan only had time to save the yellowed old photo, and no one knew where he planned to hide it.
There was one photo left for Ji Ning. But the little guy had lost interest in it. He took a quick look and confirmed that his father and uncle were in the photo, then he was eager to play with his new toy.
Shen Mo still remembered what he had agreed to do with him, and put the photo together with his New Year’s money. Although Ji Ning was young, he had saved a lot of money, and the passbook was placed in the drawer of the bedside table in their master bedroom.
Shen Mo entered the room and pulled the drawer too hard, causing the entire drawer to fall off. When he put it back together, he found a small box hidden under the drawer.
The box was made of velvet and was square. It looked very familiar and often appeared at the end of some romance TV dramas.
Shen Mo’s heart skipped a beat, and he couldn’t help but reach out and take out the box. He opened it and saw that there was indeed a pair of rings inside.
It was exactly the same as the one he had painted on Ji Mingxuan’s left hand, but it was more exquisite than the one he was wearing now. There was a diamond inlaid on the ring, which looked glittering and sparkling in the sun.
It turned out that Mr. Ji had also prepared a ring, but he got there first.
This was the love word that Ji Mingxuan had never said.
Shen Mo felt sad and almost cried.
He gently stroked the rings with his fingers. He didn’t know how long it had been before he heard Ji Ning calling from outside, “Uncle, come out and play with me!”
Shen Mo finally came to his senses. He collected his emotions, put the rings back in the corner, and carefully packed up the drawer as if he hadn’t noticed anything.
In the living room, Ji Ning was playing with his new toy with great interest. Ji Mingxuan was looking at documents nearby, and when he saw Shen Mo coming out, he glanced at him nonchalantly.
He often said that it was Shen Mo who pursued him first.
Well, Shen Mo thought, that’s true.
As for Mr. Ji’s little secret, let it remain a secret forever.
