The two of them returned to the main house carrying three large fish. Jack Jian proudly held the bucket to show his grandfather. Grandpa Jian laughed and said, "Xiu Ling, stew the fish. The fish is cooked well. Let's eat first."
Mr. Jian's house is very simple and quaint. All the furniture is made of fine mahogany and looks very old. When eating at the table, you can see the yellowed portrait of Chairman Mao and the layers of grafted beans outside the window, which makes you feel like you are in a different era.
Old Master Jian took out a huge glass jar from the cabinet. Inside was a bunch of small red fruits soaked in wine. They looked particularly beautiful.
The old man showed them like he was presenting a treasure: "This is the Schisandra chinensis I planted myself. It's the first year I planted it, and the fruits are pretty good. It's especially good for making wine. It can calm your nerves. If you have trouble sleeping, this is the most effective drink." After saying that, he poured three small cups and said, "Try them all."
This time, Liam Li was not as resistant as when Jack Jian asked him to drink. He took the wine and took a sip. Then he frowned and smiled, "It tastes very special."
The old man said enthusiastically: "If you like it, I can bring some back for you."
When the three of them were eating, the old man and Liam Li were chatting very happily, basically leaving Jack Jian aside. When they were almost done eating, the old man asked him, "What are you doing in Qinhuangdao this time?"
Jack Jian smiled and said, "I came to see you."
"Hmph, I don't know you yet. You definitely didn't come here just to see me. Tell me, what are you here for?"
"Nothing. Something went wrong with a project and I came to try to find some connections."
"Oh? What's up?"
"Why are you asking? I can solve it myself."
The old man frowned and said, "Who cares whether you can solve it or not? I want to know whether you have made any mistakes."
Jack Jian looked like she couldn't stand it: "Grandpa, I'm a serious businessman, how could I make a mistake... No, are you my real grandpa?"
"You have been a worry since you were a child, and I can't ask you."
Jack Jian had no choice but to talk about the project in a roundabout way, and of course she didn't mention that she had bribed the other party.
Mr. Jian nodded: "It's okay to use connections to smooth things over, but don't disrupt the normal process of other people's organizations. Don't think that you have privileges just because you are someone. You have to be down-to-earth in your work and conduct yourself, okay?"
"I know, I know." He has heard these words for more than 20 years. As soon as the old man starts talking, he knows what the next thing is going to say.
The three of them ate, drank and chatted. The meal took almost three hours, and it was completely dark when they finished.
Jack Jian told the driver Xiao Zhao to find a hotel to sleep in, and he and Liam Li planned to sleep at his grandfather's house for one night.
Mr. Jian said to the nanny, "Xiu Ling, clean up Sui Ying's room and prepare a guest room for Xiao Li."
Jack Jian immediately stopped him and said, "No, it's too much trouble. We're only staying for one night. Why are you bothering Aunt Zhang? Just pack up my room and we can sleep in one."
Liam Li blinked, and before he could say anything, the old man said, "That's fine, we can all sleep in your room. Sui Ying, you really don't want to stay a few more days?"
"I can't stay here anymore. I have to go back to Beijing tomorrow because I have some work to do at the company. But I can come again in a few days. I'll come to see you again." After Jack Jian finished speaking, she looked at Liam Li deliberately, feeling secretly happy. They were going to sleep in the same bed tonight. What a big step forward.
Liam Li also glanced at him with a deep gaze, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
They chatted for a while longer, then it was time for bed.
The old man had a regular life. He had to wash up at 9:30 at the latest and go to bed before 10 o'clock. After the old man returned to his room, Jack Jian led Liam Li to his room.
The old man built four more bungalows behind the main house, one of which was for the two brothers, but because the old man didn't like Sui Lin very much, Sui Lin would not come unless it was a holiday, so basically this house was for Jack Jian alone. The house was simple, but spacious and comfortable. The only thing that made Jack Jian depressed was that the old man firmly refused to allow them to install air conditioning.
Jack Jian drank a sip of water as soon as she entered the room, and said with a smile: "Let me make this clear first, there is no air conditioning here, it's hot so we can only turn on the fan. The old man is very forward-thinking, he wants to be environmentally friendly and low-carbon, he said natural wind is the healthiest, anyway we're only staying for one night, just bear with it."
Liam Li shrugged slightly: "It's OK, not too hot."
Jack Jian turned on the fan first: "Isn't it hot yet? This is what bothers me the most every time I come here." Jack Jian took off his T-shirt, revealing his muscular upper body without a trace of fat. He turned around and smiled at Liam Li, "I'm going to take a shower first, don't peek."
Liam Li was too lazy to pay attention to him. He sat at the table and opened his laptop to read the news.
Jack Jian had asked for trouble, and she was holding back her anger as she searched through boxes and cabinets to find a pair of S3xy underwear. But after searching for a long time, she still couldn't find anything satisfactory, after all, they were all old clothes from last year. Finally, she managed to find a pair of black super elastic low-waist bullet-shaped underwear, and after comparing them, she found them to be relatively ideal, and then she went in to take a shower.
There was no way, Mr. Jian was too confident in himself, and always felt that it would be a waste of his good figure if he didn't use his body to seduce himself.
The things in the bathroom were all kept there all year round, and there was basically nothing missing. As it was the first night that the two of them were in the same room and so close to each other, Jack Jian felt that it was necessary to pay attention. After taking a shower, he shaved and made a facial mask, and finally blew his hair dry and sprayed some perfume, and then came out confidently in his curvy shorts.
As a result, Liam Li had fallen asleep on the bed.
Jack Jian was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She went over and pushed him: "Hey, Liam Li, wake up."
Liam Li opened his confused eyes: "Hmm?"
"Why did you fall asleep? You haven't taken a shower yet."
"...No need to wash." He turned over without even looking at the body that Young Master Jian had carefully prepared.
Young Master Jian was so angry: "How can you not pay attention to personal hygiene, kid? No, get up quickly."
To be honest, most men don't like to take a bath. If Master Jian doesn't go out, he can go for several days without taking a bath or shaving. But he cleaned himself up so solemnly. Although the hope was slim, he was also looking forward to doing something with Liam Li. In the end, she just tilted her head and fell asleep. It was the biggest mockery to him and also a contempt for his personal charm. He absolutely could not agree to it.
Liam Li sighed impatiently, managed to stand up, and walked towards the bathroom.
After he entered the bathroom, Young Master Jian walked around the bed, then picked up the water on the table and poured it on the quilt. Then he threw the quilt on the chair next to him, found a new single quilt from the cabinet and changed it with a sly smile on his face.
When Liam Li came out, Jack Jian was sitting at the head of the bed reading Liam Li's notebook. He looked at the thin blanket that was crumpled up and thrown on the chair, and raised his chin: "What's wrong?"
"Oh, I accidentally spilled a glass of water. The other quilts are too thick. This is the only thin one left. Let's make do with this one." Jack Jian patted the quilt covering his stomach.
Liam Li estimated the size of the small blanket with an unnatural expression.
Jack Jian moved to the bed and waved at him: "Come and read this news."
Liam Li walked over and seemed a little hesitant.
Jack Jian patted the bed beside him and said with a wicked smile: "Come up, are you afraid that I will eat you?"
Liam Li increasingly felt that Jack Jian's attitude towards him was too weird, but psychologically he still found it difficult to accept that Jack Jian had any improper thoughts about him.
He sat down next to Jack Jian, who showed him the news on the computer. It turned out that a certain city's old city renovation project was awarded to a developer. He said with some envy: "This kid has made a fortune." Both of them were still energetic after taking a shower. Jack Jian analyzed the possible costs and profits of the project based on her own experience. Liam Li listened very carefully and asked questions from time to time. After the speech, Jack Jian asked proudly: "You have been with me for more than a week, haven't you learned a lot?"
Liam Li nodded, convinced by this.
Although Jack Jian is not very good in many aspects, he is indeed a businessman with foresight, determination and skill. Although his youth and success are inseparable from his family background, his own ability is also admirable. Liam Li does not deny that he can learn a lot from him, but...
Jack Jian closed the computer, put it on the table, and then lay down comfortably: "Do you want to sleep?"
Liam Li nodded and reached out to turn off the light.
"Hey, you're still sleeping in my sportswear? Aren't you afraid of the heat?"
"It doesn't matter."
"Take it off, I guarantee you'll be too hot to sleep."
Jack Jian was only wearing a pair of underwear, and only covered his stomach with a corner of the quilt, looking like he was completely naked. Liam Li looked at his bare chest and thighs, turned his face away and lay down: "No, go to sleep."
As soon as Li Yugang closed his eyes, Jack Jian came over and whispered, "Little Li, drink some water before going to bed."
Liam Li was startled and opened his eyes. Jack Jian's face was very close to him. He quickly took the water cup and took a sip.
Jack Jian attentively pulled a corner of the quilt over his stomach and said, "No matter how hot the weather is, you have to cover your stomach, otherwise you will catch a cold."
Liam Li awkwardly let Jack Jian cover him with a small blanket. Jack Jian's hand rubbed his waist intentionally or unintentionally.
After covering her, Jack Jian moved closer to Liam Li. Liam Li could even feel the heat from Jack Jian's thighs through her thin sports pants.
Although neither of them spoke, in such a quiet place, even the other's breathing could be heard clearly. Jack Jian felt hotter and hotter, because her heart could not calm down at all. The fresh meat she had been thinking about day and night was lying next to her, clean and tidy. If a man could still calm down at this time, there must be something wrong with him.
Damn, this is too torturous. Young Master Jian is almost gritting his teeth. But what can he do? He can't just bully others. He doesn't like that. But if he doesn't do something, he really can't accept it. If it gets out, people will think he is not capable. This is a big misunderstanding.
Young Master Jian's mind was in turmoil, and Liam Li was not feeling any better. The atmosphere between the two of them had become increasingly strange in the past two days. Jack Jian was so attentive to him, and he would be a fool if he still didn't notice. When he thought that Jack Jian might have such thoughts about him, he felt furious. Just lying there quietly, he could hear Jack Jian's breathing becoming a little rapid. God knows what was going on in his mind.
The two could hear each other's unusual breathing, and the tense, explosive atmosphere stimulated every cell in their bodies.
Liam Li felt more and more as if he was lying on wheat stalks. He felt uncomfortable all over. He was hot and irritable. He could not lie down any longer, so he sat up suddenly and wanted to go out for some fresh air.
As soon as Liam Li moved, it was as if a stretched string in Jack Jian's head snapped with a sound. He jumped up without thinking. In fact, he hadn't thought about what he was going to do. He just didn't want Liam Li to leave.
Liam Li was also startled by his action and pushed him reflexively.
This was even more outrageous. Jack Jian also grabbed his shoulders as if she was furious.
In the darkness, except for vision, other senses are extremely sensitive. The nerves of both people are in a highly tense state, and any movement may irritate the other party.
Liam Li tried harder to push Jack Jian away out of self-protection, but Jack Jian, who was determined to punish anyone who didn't obey him, pulled his arm even harder and threw himself at him. His aggressive move completely pissed off Liam Li, and before he could throw himself at Liam Li, Liam Li had already pulled his arm and swung it hard, then kicked him, causing Jian's body to draw an awkward arc in the air and fall directly under the bed.
Jack Jian was no pushover either. In his life, he always won a fight or both of them got hurt. He never had the concept of losing. When he fell to the ground, he did not let go of Liam Li's arm. Instead, he pulled it hard, and Liam Li fell under the bed with him.
Liam Li fell on him, and Young Master Jian threw him down and pressed him down, causing him to scream "Fcuk" in pain.
Liam Li's eyes were about to spit fire. He gritted his teeth and tried to get up, but Jack Jian got angry and held him tightly. He has been like this since he was a child. If anyone makes him unhappy, he will not let the other person feel comfortable.
As the two were struggling and twisting their bodies, Jian Da accidentally fired a shot.
When Liam Li felt the hard thing pressing against his thigh, he froze completely.
Jack Jian also felt the changes in her body and suddenly did not dare to move.
A ray of moonlight shining through the window allowed the two to barely see each other's bright eyes.
One was filled with raging rage, the other was filled with lingering desire, and now both of them had regained some of their rationality.
Jack Jian suddenly let go of her hand, and Liam Li also jumped up swiftly.
The room was extremely quiet.
The boss and subordinates who were respectful to each other during the day rolled over the bed and under the bed at night, and the boss even stood up straight. This kind of embarrassing situation will never be understood by those who have not experienced it.
Liam Li stood with his back to Jack Jian, his body motionless like a statue. He was frozen for several seconds before he uttered a voice without any fluctuations: "Are you gay?"
Jack Jian swallowed her saliva and forced herself to calm down: "I am."
Liam Li slowly turned his face. In the darkness, Jack Jian could only see his eyes, which were particularly cold, so cold that he shivered.
He heard Liam Li say: "Are you...?"
Jack Jian was completely sober at this time. He had thrown away all the people he should have thrown away. Instead, he felt free and happy, so he admitted openly: "Yes, I like you."
Liam Li gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not gay."
"No one said you were, but I just wanted to like you. I liked you from the first moment I saw you."
Liam Li grabbed his clothes and pants on the chair and strode towards the door.
"Liam Li!" Jack Jian jumped up from the ground and said sincerely, "You sleep here. I'll go to Sui Lin's room to spend the night."
Liam Li didn't even stop, as if he didn't hear anything. Jack Jian walked over quickly, and Liam Li immediately turned around as if he had been electrocuted, looking at him warily.
Jack Jian said helplessly: "Brother Jian was impulsive about what happened today. I apologize to you."
Liam Li looked at him coldly.
"I don't know what went wrong with me just now... We are all men, please understand. I, well, I really like you. Anyway, I was wrong just now. Don't go out. There are mosquitoes outside. You sleep here. I'll go to another room."
After saying that, he grabbed his clothes, opened the door and went out.
Liam Li looked at his back, his eyes becoming increasingly cold.
Jack Jian spent the whole night in the dusty bed next door with his clothes on. When he first lay down, he couldn't sleep at all. He kept thinking about what had just happened, and he regretted it.
Impulsive, impulsive...
I don't know what he was thinking at the time. When Liam Li moved, he suddenly jumped up nervously and didn't want to let him go. Maybe he just got up to pee, why was he so nervous? This was over. The relationship that had been built for so long was probably ruined.
Will Liam Li resign tomorrow? Maybe I will have to avoid him in the future, so that he won't be able to show his courtesy. Young Master Jian was really regretful. They used to be able to talk and laugh together, but now he will probably have to be cold and stern to him in the future.
However, Young Master Jian comforted himself again. In fact, it would be better to speak openly like this. He had no patience and kept hiding his thoughts all day long. Sooner or later, he would get sick. I can like whoever I want, what can he do to me?
It was hard for Jian Da to worry about Lady Li for several hours, but he finally fell asleep without a care in the world. He slept very soundly and had no dreams all night.
The next day, the nanny came to call him for breakfast. When he woke up, he asked if Liam Li was there. The nanny said that Liam Li was chatting with Mr. Jian in the main house, and he was relieved.
He got up, washed up, and went to the main house. As soon as he entered the house, he saw an old man and a child sitting on chairs chatting, and there was steaming tea on the coffee table.
The old man said with full energy: "You just got up after nine o'clock. If you hadn't caught a cold these two days, I wouldn't have let you sleep until now."
Jack Jian said helplessly: "I've been too tired these past two days. I just didn't get up for one day, and you're still training new soldiers."
The old man laughed and said, "Okay, let's eat first."
Jack Jian glanced at Liam Li, and Liam Li also raised his head and glanced at him, his eyes were very indifferent, as if nothing happened yesterday. Jack Jian's heart skipped a few beats, and he asked Liam Li with a smile: "What are you talking about?"
Liam Li replied: "Chatting about tea."
Mr. Jian praised: "Old Li's grandson is amazing. He can talk about anything with people of my age. He knows a lot. Sui Ying, I think this child will be more promising than you in the future."
Jack Jian was just worrying about how to please Liam Li, so she quickly agreed, "Of course, Li is very smart. He can learn anything quickly and he looks at things very carefully and deeply. He is a talented person."
Liam Li didn't even raise his eyebrows, he lowered his head and sipped his tea.
Jack Jian hit a snag, so he said nothing more and went to the dining room to eat breakfast. While eating, he secretly glanced at Liam Li, thinking about how he would keep her if she turned against him.
The old man invited the two to have lunch before sending them off reluctantly. Before leaving, he brought him a car full of fresh fruits and vegetables, and asked Jack Jian to visit him more often in the future and bring Liam Li with her.
After Xiao Zhao picked them up, Liam Li and Jack Jian continued to sit one in front of the other in the two rows of seats in the business car, without speaking a word along the way.
As they were about to get off the highway, Jack Jian asked Xiao Zhao to stop at a gas station.
Liam Li went to the toilet, and when he came back, Xiao Zhao was gone. Jack Jian was sitting in the driver's seat, smiling at him.
Liam Li frowned slightly. Just as she sat down and closed the car door, Jack Jian started driving.
Liam Li asked: "What's going on?"
"Ah, I asked Xiao Zhao to take a taxi back by himself."
Liam Li said in a deep voice: "What do you mean?"
"I think we should have a chat. It's not convenient with outsiders around." Young Master Jian said this without blushing or getting nervous, and he even gave Liam Li a wink in the rearview mirror.
Liam Li leaned back in his chair, crossed his arms over his chest, and stared at Jack Jian's eyes through the rearview mirror without dodging.
Jack Jian cleared his throat and said, "Well, first of all, Brother Jian still has to apologize to you. I was impulsive about what happened yesterday. Just think of me as drunk and crazy. Don't take it to heart."
Liam Li pursed his lips and said nothing.
"Next, although I was impulsive yesterday, what I said was the truth. Brother Jian really likes you, and I know you are not gay. Who says that men must be gay when they are together? As long as they are happy together, that's fine. Little Leo Jian, I know it's hard for you to accept it for the time being, but I can assure you that if you are with me, Jack Jian, I can lift you up to the sky and make you much happier than being with any other man or woman. Don't be in a hurry to reject me. How about giving me a chance?"
Liam Li's mouth twitched a little, and he was so angry that he didn't know what to say. He felt that Jack Jian's attitude towards him was similar to those princelings pursuing female stars. Although she was courting him for no reason, she also had a high attitude of "I like you and I'm giving you face, don't be ungrateful." It was none of his business if Jack Jian used these things to deal with anyone, but he dared to use them on himself. Liam Li had only been admired with respect in his life, and no one had ever pursued him in a way that made him feel offended and disgusted.
Maybe Jack Jian was used to being in a high position. No matter in age, qualifications or personal ability, he was superior to Liam Li. He even enjoyed the admiration of Leo Jian, whom Liam Li envied and hated. So his kindness to Liam Li made Liam Li feel humiliated.
Liam Li secretly clenched his fists and said sarcastically: "Brother Jian, I call you brother, so you should act like a brother."
Jack Jian's face changed slightly. If Liam Li had just told him to get lost, he could have accepted it calmly. But he felt uncomfortable listening to her scolding him in such a roundabout way. He adjusted his facial expression and secretly told himself that Liam Li was young and he was the one who took the initiative to chase after her. He was a man of great generosity and would not argue with a child.
He smiled and said, "I know you can't accept it right now, but I really like you and I won't give up easily."
Liam Li was about to speak when Jack Jian raised her hand to interrupt him and asked, "You are not planning to resign, are you?"
Liam Li was stunned by the question and he was actually a little hesitant for a moment.
Jack Jian deliberately provoked him: "If you want to resign, I won't stop you. I'll call your brother and explain to him. I promise he won't say anything about you, okay?"
Liam Li's facial expression was distorted. He had agreed with his family to come here for training, but his mother didn't agree. He insisted on coming and asked his brother to speak for him, just so that he could be with Sui Lin for the whole summer vacation. If he went home after working for less than two weeks, his brother would definitely scold him for not being able to endure hardship and grievances, and for having a bad temper and many problems. Not to mention holding back, he was afraid that Sui Lin and even Jack Jian would look down on him.
Jack Jian himself was a stubborn person who would rather suffer than let others laugh at him. Based on his understanding of Liam Li, Liam Li had vowed that he could stick to any job, and now even if he had to endure his torture every day, he would never quit halfway, for one reason: he couldn't afford to lose face.
Jack Jian continued to provoke him: "Don't worry, I'll give you a better reason, and your brother won't say anything for my sake..."
Li Yuming knew that Jack Jian was provoking him, but he was helpless. He said stiffly, "No, I don't plan to resign."
Jack Jian grinned and said, "I'm not forcing you to do this. Yes, Leo Jian, I was right about you. In fact, harassment from your superiors is also a part of workplace life. This is also a training for you, hahaha."
Liam Li looked at him coldly without even moving his face. Jack Jian had asked for trouble, and the stiff smile on her face slowly melted away.
After arriving in the city, Liam Li refused to let Jack Jian take him home and wanted to take a taxi. Jack Jian got out of the car quickly and divided the fruits and vegetables in the trunk for Liam Li to take.
Liam Li refused to take her with him. He didn't want to stay with Jack Jian for even a second and just wanted to leave quickly.
Jack Jian pestered him and wouldn't let him leave: "Little Li, take some. I can't finish all of this. Take it back for uncle and aunt to taste. They are all fresh and pesticide-free. They are very environmentally friendly and healthy."
Liam Li had no choice but to accept it. Jack Jian then sent him to the taxi with satisfaction and closed the door for him with a smile. When the car started, Jack Jian suddenly knocked on the car window. Liam Li was startled and turned back subconsciously. Jack Jian blew him a K!ss and looked at him with a sly smile.
Liam Li was so angry that his face turned green.
The Qinhuangdao project went relatively smoothly, and the person from the Commission for Discipline Inspection called him back, which made him feel much more relaxed. Once he relaxed about work matters, he began to think about his personal problems again.
Liam Li asked for two days off, and Jack Jian felt as if Liam Li was mad at him, which was really cute. Jian Da was in a particularly good mood when he thought of him now, and sometimes he could even laugh when he thought about it.
Although he dared not say how sincere he was to Liam Li, at least since he was a child, Liam Li was the one he cared about the most and the one he cared about the most. In a man's love, the desire to conquer occupies a large proportion. The more unattainable something is, the more precious it is in his heart. Now when he thought of Liam Li, he had an urgent desire to take her down.
Liam Li had been following him around for a while, and he really missed her after not seeing her for a day or two. He fiddled with his phone and finally couldn't help but send a text message: "Little Li, what are you doing?"
After waiting for a long time without any response, Jack Jian sent another message: "Come to work tomorrow. Xiao Linzi is here too."
There was still no response to this call. Jack Jian was a little disappointed. After hesitating for a long time, she still didn't dare to make the call.
The next morning, as soon as Jack Jian entered the company, the secretary told him that Leo Jian had arrived. He turned into the reception room and saw Leo Jian and Liam Li sitting inside, chatting and laughing.
The two handsome men were sitting together, talking with a smile on their faces. The scene was so pleasing to the eyes. Jack Jian was not only a little jealous, but also because Liam Li had never been willing to give him such a gentle and cheerful smile. He knocked on the glass in dissatisfaction.
The two people in the reception room looked up at the same time, one with a smile on his face, the other with a stiff expression.
Leo Jian stood up: "Brother."
Jack Jian pushed the door open and nodded at him: "Yes, you are here."
"I just came."
"Where have you been these past two weeks?"
"I only went to Hong Kong. Brother, Dad asked you to come home for dinner tonight, and I brought you a gift."
Jack Jian said casually, "Tonight, okay?" Then he glanced at Liam Li and smiled, "It's quite early today."
Liam Li nodded and said seriously, "Mr. Liang called me today and asked if you have time these two days. He wants you to experience the hot spring in his hotel."
"Okay, I'll take you out to relax during these two days."
Liam Li's eyes flickered but he said nothing.
Leo Jian asked earnestly: "Brother, what can I do?"
"You." Jack Jian glanced at him sideways, "Why don't you follow Lao Liu and his team to deal with non-performing assets? I just bought an asset package from XX Bank recently. There's a lot to be done with it. You can go report to Lao Liu."
Leo Jian agreed: "Okay."
"Come on, Liam Li, come in with me."
Just as the three of them were about to leave, Jack Jian's secretary Xiao Liang came over in a hurry: "Boss Jian, your cousin is here again."
Jack Jian's face immediately twisted: "Again?"
Xiao Liang said helplessly: "Here it comes again."
Leo Jian also had an embarrassed expression.
Jack Jian pointed at his brother and said, "Don't go yet. Come with me to the office first. Xiao Liang, bring him to my office. Don't waste a second. Don't let him talk nonsense with the people in my company."
"yes."
Jack Jian led the two of them back to the office.
After a while, Xiao Liang came in with a handsome but somewhat sloppy boy.
"Brother, long time no see. Hey, Xiao Linzi is here too."
Jian Sui Lin Chong nodded and said, "Brother Yu."
The person who came was the only son of Jack Jian's aunt, Bai Xinyu. How could he be described? According to Jack Jian, he was a moron. Bai Xinyu was a second-generation rich man who was not good at anything and never satisfied with food. He was always looking for business, and he cheated people out of a lot of money. He still didn't repent, and he was always bragging about doing something big.
Usually when he came to see Jack Jian, it was never good news.
As expected, as soon as he sat down, he said to Jack Jian mysteriously, "Brother, let me tell you, a friend recently introduced me to a very good project. It requires little investment, but the profit is very high."
Jack Jian sneered: "Oh, there is such a good thing, why doesn't he do it himself?"
"He doesn't have the strength to take it down."
"You have?"
"A hundred thousand or so is not a problem...but my mother insisted that I come and discuss it with you so as not to get cheated."
"Your mother is really wise." Jack Jian glared at him, "Can you be quiet every day, eat your food, drink your drinks and have fun? How many times have I told you that you are not cut out for business? Don't you understand what people say?"
Bai Xinyu felt very aggrieved: "Brother, don't keep saying that to me. I have potential, but you make me feel inferior. I'm already 23 years old, and I don't want to stay like this all day. I also want to do something to make my parents proud."
Jack Jian sighed: "Is that bag you brought information? Let me see it."
Bai Xinyu quickly handed the bag to him.
Jack Jian took out a rather large stack of documents, flipped through them quickly, and then slammed the documents on the desk, pointing at him in disapproval: "You kid, what a Sh!tty business, go home and suck your milk!"
Bai Xinyu said with a sad face: "Brother, please give me some advice instead of scolding me all the time."
Jack Jian really had no idea what to do with this cousin. He was as dumb as a pig and very naive. He would believe anything people said to him. He was also very thick-skinned. He had said that to strangers several times, but they would forget about it as soon as they turned around. Only to ask him to introduce business to them the next time.
He felt a headache when he saw him. Compared to such a younger brother, he felt that Leo Jian, who was smart and capable, was reluctantly cuter than him.
Jack Jian shouted, "How dare you take on a project like this? Can't you see that it's clearly a scam?"
Bai Xinyu opened her big innocent eyes: "I really didn't see that..."
Jack Jian raised a stack of documents into the air: "Xiao Linzi."
Leo Jian immediately came over and took it.
"You and Liam Li, take a look. Liam Li, you have learned a lot during this period. Xiao Linzi, I have also invested a lot of money in you to let you learn. If you two can see the problem, I will give you an independent project to do. The profit will be yours, and the loss will be mine."
Leo Jian gave half of the document to Liam Li, and the two of them lowered their heads to study it.
Jack Jian knocked on the table and glared at Bai Xinyu.
Young Master Bai looked at them eagerly.
After a while, Liam Li raised his head and pointed a page of documents to Jack Jian: "Mr. Jian, is this a high-voltage line?"
Jack Jian nodded appreciatively: "Yes."
"There can't be any buildings under high-voltage lines, so we can't start construction on this land."
Jack Jian said to Bai Xinyu, "Did you hear that? You can't even see the obvious high-voltage wires? You didn't even go to the field to check?"
Young Master Bai whispered, "I haven't had time to go yet."
"You'll have time to pay!"
"No, I didn't pay. Didn't I come to discuss this with you..."
At this time, Leo Jian also raised his head: "Brother, the property rights of this land are not clear either."
Jack Jian nodded with satisfaction: "Yes. Bai Xinyu, you are such a fool! The high-voltage line needs to be rerouted. Do you know how much effort it will take? The property rights are not clear enough. Who knows what disputes will arise at that time. You only think it is cheap, why don't you think about why it is so cheap?"
Bai Xinyu was so shocked that she shrank her head and dared not look at him. After a long while, she managed to say: "Then we can't do it..."
"Yes."
He raised his head happily and said, "Brother, I can do it. In fact, this piece of land will be valuable if it is well managed. You can take a look at the location."
Jack Jian shouted, "I can do it, but you can't."
Bai Xinyu immediately wilted: "Brother, don't be like this."
"You are right about one thing. This land is indeed valuable if it is well managed. Let's put it this way, Liam Li, Xiao Linzi, as we agreed just now, I will give you a chance to exercise. You two will help him with this land."
Bai Xinyu muttered: "Brother, are they okay?"
Jack Jian glared at him and said, "I think I'm better than you." Then she continued, "This project will take at least a year or two to complete. You two should think it over. If you want to take it, you can't quit halfway."
Leo Jian immediately said, "I can."
Liam Li hesitated for a moment, glanced at Leo Jian, and said, "I can do it, too."
Jack Jian was secretly delighted. This way, Liam Li would be inseparable from him at least until the end of this project: "Bai Xinyu, you have a lot of money, right? You pay for this project, and they work hard. You get six points of profit, and they each get two points."
Bai Xinyu said reluctantly: "Then if it fails, I won't lose anything?"
"What are you afraid of? I'm here to help them. I have 80% confidence in this project. If you don't want to do it, forget it."
Bai Xinyu glanced at his smart and capable cousin and gritted his teeth: "Brother, I believe in you."
Jack Jian nodded with satisfaction: "Liam Li, go and draft a contract. The contract you wrote last time was not good. Go and ask your sister Liang for advice. Give it to me after you revise it."
"good."
"Xiao Linzi, follow your brother Yu to look at the land, conduct a practical inspection, and come back to write a report."
"Yes, brother."
"Still calling me brother? You should be at home."
"Ah, Mr. Jian."
"Okay, go ahead."
The three of them stood up and were about to leave. Jack Jian suddenly said, "Liam Li."
Liam Li turned his head.
"Come out to lunch with me at noon."
Liam Li thought someone had invited Jack Jian to dinner, but Jack Jian didn't even call the driver and asked him to drive. The two drove for more than half an hour and arrived at a vegetarian restaurant.
Jack Jian smiled and said, "The food in this vegetarian restaurant is really authentic. One year I went to the Nanshan Temple in Sanya, and there was a vegetarian restaurant there. The food was really delicious. After I came back to Beijing, I looked for it everywhere, and only this one could compare to the other ones. I noticed that you don't usually eat much meat, so I've been thinking about bringing you here to try it."
Liam Li finally realized that they were the only two people having lunch, so he had no choice but to follow Jack Jian in.
Jack Jian chose a particularly secluded corner to sit down. There were not many people eating at noon, only two or three people, and few people could see where the two of them were sitting.
As soon as Liam Li sat down, he started talking about business with him, discussing with him the project that he and Leo Jian would be responsible for today. Jack Jian seemed to have changed into a different person when he talked about business, and he could immediately become several times more serious.
But once the dishes were served, it was no longer appropriate to discuss business. Jack Jian immediately showed his true colors and diligently served Liam Li some dishes and poured him a drink.
Liam Li was much calmer than the day he first found out that Jack Jian had feelings for him. There was no more obvious disgust and impatience on his face. He just dealt with him indifferently.
After they finished eating, Jack Jian took out a small black velvet box from his trouser pocket, pushed it in front of Liam Li, and smiled affectionately: "Liam Li, I saw this while shopping the other day, and I think it's especially suitable for you."
Liam Li glanced at him and said, "Brother Jian, don't try this trick. Do you think I will accept it?"
Jack Jian was not discouraged at all: "It's not something expensive, just a token of my appreciation. You work very hard, don't you open it and take a look?"
Seeing that Liam Li had no intention of moving, Jack Jian opened the box herself. Inside was a platinum tie clip inlaid with relatively low-key diamonds.
Liam Li closed his eyes, as if he was suppressing his anger. He said in a deep voice, "Brother Jian, is it appropriate for you to use the same tactics you use to please women to deal with me?"
Jack Jian felt particularly wronged: "How can this be considered as pleasing a woman? I have never pleased any woman except my mother in my life. I am born gay."
Li Yuzhen didn't expect that someone could talk about this matter as if they were quite proud of it.
Jack Jian took advantage of his unpreparedness and gently held his hand: "I just want to give a gift to the person I like."
Liam Li mercilessly withdrew his hand and said coldly: "Don't waste your time on me. I can't accept it."
Jack Jian pretended to be sad: "I know you will refuse, but I won't give up so easily."
Liam Li felt sick after this meal.
In fact, Jack Jian was good in everything. If she didn't have such thoughts about him, the two of them could get along very happily. Jack Jian not only made him feel annoyed, but also embarrassed. He had liked Leo Jian for so many years, and he never thought that one day he would be pursued by the brother of the person he liked.
After all, Jane's gift was never delivered and he threw it in the car in disappointment.
Leo Jian came back in the afternoon and brought back some photos and information about the land. He gave Jack Jian a brief description and analysis of it.
After listening to him, Jack Jian gave him an idea on how to start the project, and then told him: "You should take good care of your brother Yu this time, and tell me as soon as possible if there is anything. It's not easy for my aunt's family to make money, don't let him squander it all. You know he's a bit of a fool, if there is any problem with this project, I will find you first."
Leo Jian nodded and said, "I'll keep an eye on him."
"Well, get busy."
Leo Jian stood up and said, "Brother, let's go together tonight."
"Why?"
"Aren't you going home for dinner tonight?"
"Oh, you drive yourself back. I have something else to do. I will be back before dinner."
Leo Jian was a little disappointed: "Oh."
Leo Jian turned around and was about to leave, but just as he reached the door, Jack Jian called him.
"Xiao Linzi."
"When will your results be out?"
"the day after tomorrow."
Jack Jian tapped the table with her slender fingers: "Are you driving Dad's car now?"
"Um."
"I promised you last time that I would give you a car. You can choose one yourself."
"Brother, there are so many cars at home, you don't need to buy one for me."
Jack Jian smiled and said, "But when a man grows up, he must have his own car. It has a different meaning. Besides, my car is too flashy and not suitable for you. You can choose one yourself, don't get something too flashy. After all, you are still a student. Our Jian family is not a poor family. We can't afford to lose face. Do you understand?"
"I see. Thanks, bro."
"The results will be out the day after tomorrow. Do you have any plans to celebrate?"
Leo Jian smiled and said, "Brother, if I don't do well in the exam, what's the point of celebrating?"
Jack Jian rolled her eyes at him: "Why don't you think about doing well in the exam first? Don't you have any confidence in yourself?"
Leo Jian said: "If Liam Li and I both do well in the exam, we plan to have a party together and invite all our classmates and friends. Brother, will you come?"
"Come on, why not?" As long as he could spare the time, he would not miss any opportunity to spend time with Liam Li outside of work.
Leo Jian showed a delighted expression.
On the day when the results were released, Jack Jian did not go home because he had a dinner party, but he received a call from home immediately. Leo Jian excitedly told him, "Brother, I did very well in the exam."
Jack Jian was not surprised. Xiao Linzi had always had good grades since he was young, so it was expected that he would get a good score. But he was also very happy. If he could go to X University, it would be much smoother for Leo Jian to pursue a career in politics in the future, which would be a good thing for their family.
After he hung up, he quickly called Liam Li's cell phone. The phone rang twice before Liam Li picked up the phone, and his voice was very calm: "Brother Jian."
"Little Leo Jian, how are you doing? Have you checked your grades?"
"Yes, I checked."
Jack Jian felt a little depressed when he heard his calm voice. Did he not do well in the exam? Before he could ask, Liam Li had already told him his results.
Jack Jian suddenly became happy: "Damn it, Liam Li, you can do it!"
Liam Li was in a good mood and laughed softly: "It's about the same as I estimated."
"Congratulations, did Xiao Linzi call you? You two both did very well in the exam."
"We have been in touch online and I know his grades."
Jack Jian was even happier than when she found out that Leo Jian did well in the exam: "Okay, now you have a reason to celebrate. Leave this to your brother Jian. I'll book a place for you. You can invite as many people as you want. You can have fun as you like."
Liam Li said: "No need, Sui Lin and I have already booked a place."
Jack Jian was not giving up and said, "No matter what, you have to let me show my appreciation. Even if it's not for you, Sui Lin is still my brother. How about this, I'll prepare the wine?"
Liam Li frowned habitually: "My classmates don't drink?"
"Forget it. You think all students nowadays are like you? Let's just settle it. Otherwise, I'd be embarrassed to leave empty-handed."
Liam Li didn't know Jack Jian was coming too, so he was choked and remained silent for a while. Jack Jian thought he had acquiesced, and began to plan how to get Liam Li drunk that day.
On the same day, Jack Jian asked Liam Li and Leo Jian to leave work early so that they could go home, change their clothes, eat and get ready.
Jack Jian ordered several kinds of wine and sent them over, and asked Xiao Liang to prepare dozens of PSPs to give to their classmates and friends. Even if it was not to please Liam Li, he had to give enough face to the second young master of the Jian family.
He went home, took a shower, put on a facial mask, and dressed himself up to his satisfaction, then leisurely went to the place where the two were having the party.
Xiao Linzi booked a banquet hall in a five-star hotel and invited almost everyone in their class. Jack Jian looked at the arrangement and found it quite impressive, so he was slightly satisfied.
Most of the people who came were young people, and the scene was very lively. Jack Jian caused a lot of screams as soon as she entered the door. He had heard some things from Xiao Linzi that among their classmates, both male and female, there were many who admired him. Jack Jian himself was quite puzzled.
As soon as he entered, Leo Jian came to greet him, her face rosy and full of joy: "Brother, you're here."
Jack Jian looked around: "Where's Liam Li?"
"Over there."
Jack Jian looked in the direction of his finger. Liam Li was sitting on a sofa, talking to his classmates, and then he started laughing. He hadn't seen Liam Li in casual clothes for a long time. His youthful and handsome appearance was really attractive.
A group of boys gathered around him, one of whom had played basketball with him last time: "Brother, your foot is healed."
"Haha, I'm fine now."
"Let's play ball together next time. You play well, but don't wear those leather shoes."
Everyone laughed together, and Jack Jian was in a good mood: "No problem, I will go with better equipment next time."
While talking about Jack Jian, she moved towards Liam Li.
Liam Li saw him and stood up: "Brother Jian."
"Hey, Leo Jian, sit down, everyone sit down."
Several people sat down around the sofa, and a male classmate asked: "Brother, is Liam Li doing an internship at your company?"
"Yeah, he did a good job."
The male classmate teased, "Brother, don't tire yourself out for handsome Li, otherwise our school beauty will be heartbroken." After saying that, he glanced ambiguously at the little girl sitting next to Liam Li.
The girl glared at him angrily: "Who feels sorry for you? What nonsense are you talking about?" Then she looked at Liam Li shyly.
Jack Jian then noticed that there was a little girl next to Liam Li. She was fair and pretty, but Liam Li wouldn't really like such an underdeveloped girl. He stared at the girl unhappily, with a somewhat scrutinizing look. When the girl's eyes met Jack Jian's, her face flushed and she quickly turned away.
Jack Jian teased her deliberately: "Beauty, Liam Li's job is not easy. She has to get up early and go to bed late every day to run around with me. She is so busy that she doesn't even have time to eat lunch. Don't you feel bad for her?"
The little girl's face turned red as if blood could drip out, and she shook her head repeatedly: "No, it has nothing to do with me, I didn't..." Her voice became lower and lower, and the boys around her laughed softly.
"But if a man wants to have status, he must endure hardships and hardship. Do you think good food and good clothes will fall from the sky? You are so beautiful, you can just find a rich man to marry. Can a man make a living by doing this? Don't you think so?"
The girl didn't even dare to look at Jack Jian's face, her heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of her throat. His extremely manly looks and impeccable figure, coupled with his mature yet somewhat ruffian temperament, his charm could almost instantly slay women of all ages, and it was simply not something a teenage girl could resist.
Liam Li was a little annoyed with Jack Jian bullying a little girl, so he changed the subject. This made Jack Jian feel that he was protecting the girl, and she became even more jealous. She kept grabbing her and continued, "Beautiful girl, do you have a boyfriend? I don't think Liam Li is suitable for you. He is boring and can't say a few words a day. What do you think of my brother?"
The male and female classmates around were all excited. Young people love to have fun. When these words came out, everyone started to make a noise. The girl was shy and was so embarrassed that she almost cried.
Jack Jian's bad nature was clearly revealed at this time. She had no intention of letting her go and just wanted to get her together with Xiao Linzi.
I'm just kidding. Liam Li is the one I like. Whoever dares to compete with him for her, let alone snatch her away, you can't even think about her!
Xiao Linzi was chatting with someone on the other side of the hall at this time, and had no idea that his elder brother had already put him on pre-sale.
Liam Li was furious. As soon as he saw Jack Jian narrowing her eyes and looking malicious, he knew what he was thinking. It was bad enough that his classmate was embarrassed, but now he wanted to pair Sui Lin with that girl. There were so many boys who liked this girl, what if Sui Lin was really attracted to her?
He saw that Jack Jian might say something if she sat down again, so he simply made up an excuse to pull Jack Jian away.
Jack Jian was also very angry, thinking that these two people were definitely not pure. Damn, why didn't anyone take care of this evil premature love!
Liam Li pulled him to the balcony outside and shouted in a low voice: "What on earth are you going to do?"
Jack Jian shook off his arm and snorted, "What did I do? I'm preparing a wife for my brother. Why, you can't bear to let her go?"
Liam Li had been thinking about Leo Jian for so many years, of course she couldn't bear to let him go, and she angrily said, "Please stop messing around, it's embarrassing for my classmate. Girls are shy, how dare you bully a girl who is so much younger than you? Besides, Leo Jian doesn't like her."
Jack Jian was so jealous that she almost burst into tears: "Okay, Liam Li, you are a hero saving a beautiful woman. So you like skinny girls with little meat on them? Look at her, does she have any experience? Liam Li, listen to me, no matter what kind of relationship a man has, it's all nonsense if they don't get along in bed. If they are compatible in bed, it doesn't matter whether they are men or women. You may think you like women, and you may think it feels good to have S3x with women, but if you dare to try it with me, I promise that you will never want women again."
In the eyes of Jack Jian, a senior gay who has been gay for 27 years, there is no such thing as straight men in the world. As long as men are satisfied with that aspect, most of them will not stick to any bottom line of principles. He is extremely confident in his experience and skills. He thinks he took the wrong route from the beginning. He should have directly given Liam Li half a catty of white wine and then had S3x with him. If he had served Liam Li to his satisfaction, he would have tasted the sweetness and it would be difficult for him to stop being gay.
Jack Jian's frank and straightforward declaration made Liam Li blush. Jack Jian was always able to kill people by surprise. I really didn't know whether to say he was brave or too thick-skinned. He hurriedly looked at the doors and windows nervously and found that they were all closed tightly. No one was paying attention to them, so he was slightly relieved.
The good education he received since childhood and his concern for Jack Jian's identity made him hold back from saying bad things: "Brother Jian, no matter whether I like women or not, it's impossible for me to be with you. If you act normal, I'll still call you brother. If you do this again, I..."
Before he could say anything, Jack Jian rushed up to him, pushed his chest against the wall when he was caught off guard, and blocked his mouth with her whole body.
After all, Liam Li was young and had never thought that one day he would be K!ssed by a man. His brain was instantly filled with blood and he was stunned. When he reacted, Jack Jian had hooked his neck and tasted his lips, and used her tongue to lick his teeth. Jack Jian hooked his tongue with her tongue and pulled it gently. The soft and slippery touch made Liam Li tremble all over. Liam Li didn't know what K!ssing was until that moment. The previous K!sses with girls with a trial mentality were just touching lips.
His mind cleared up the next second, his eyes widened, and he bit the tongue hard.
Jack Jian flinched in pain, and then, without any warning, a huge force hit his chest, causing his breathing to stagnate. He fell backwards uncontrollably, took a few steps back, and fell to the ground.
Liam Li rushed up with a ferocious look on his face, grabbed his collar and raised his fist.
Jack Jian licked the blood from the corner of her mouth and looked at him provocatively.
Liam Li's fist froze in mid-air, and he hesitated. He was a professional athlete, and he didn't care how hard he hit her when he was angry. If he really hit her, Jack Jian would be embarrassed to see anyone for half a month. How would he explain it to the whole room, and how would he explain it to Sui Lin? These were all things he had to consider.
After such hesitation, Jack Jian actually smiled and said desperately: "Your lips are so soft and sweet. What do you think? I am a good K!sser, right?"
Liam Li was so angry that he hit him hard in the stomach with his knee.
Jack Jian held her stomach and coughed for a while, and it took her a long time to recover.
Liam Li straightened his clothes and returned to the hall without wanting to stay any longer.
Jack Jian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and smiled smugly.
