Chapter 24 You have a nice Adam's apple
A hint of spirit suddenly appeared in Su Ti's gloomy eyes.
"Mr. Rong is here too?"
Chen Bai smiled and said, "Yes, I just came back from Beijing. Miss Su is here..."
Just as Su Ti was about to answer, the cell phone in her pocket rang.
Caller, Mr. Rong.
Su Ti smiled, cleared her throat, and walked to the side to answer the phone.
On the other end of the phone, the man's deep and magnetic voice was clearly audible through the receiver.
"Why are you here at Zhongrong instead of taking a lunch break at the company?"
"I'm here to do something." Su Ti suddenly realized, "Did Mr. Rong see me?"
Rong Shaoting did not give a direct answer, but asked with concern: "Is everything going well?"
Su Ti rubbed her toes against the marble floor, her eyes rolling around, "It went pretty smoothly... um..."
The perceptive man naturally did not ignore Su Ti's hesitation to speak.
He chuckled inaudibly and asked her, "Whatever you want to say, feel free to say it."
Su Ti put one hand in the pocket of her overalls and shook her shoulder to inquire, "What flavor of coffee does Mr. Rong usually drink and like to drink?"
At first I wanted to ask him, "Do you drink coffee on a regular basis?"
But before she could finish her words, Suti turned the subjective question into a multiple-choice question.
What if he said he didn't like coffee? That would be the end of it.
Rong Shaoting said calmly: "Miss Su wants to treat me to coffee?"
Suti remembered.
She had made a wish to others before, saying that she would entertain him in Pingjiang.
"I do have that idea." Suti smiled cheerfully, "So what flavor do you like? American, Italian, or espresso?"
The man gave the answer in a deep voice, "Just hand-brewed coffee."
Su Ti: “…”
Will her future coffee shop have hand-brewed coffee?
On the other side, Chen Bai and Tang Decai were still standing there waiting for Su Ti.
When their eyes met for the third time, Tang Decai took the initiative to extend his hand, "Hello, Tang Decai."
Chen Bai shook hands with him, "Hello, Chen Bai."
"Nice to meet you."
The two men with a big age gap started chatting with each other in no time.
Tang Decai stammered something during the chat, hoping that Chen Bai could take care of the lobby cafe's business more in the future.
Chen Bai hid his selfish motives while chatting, and quietly asked Tang Decai about Su Ti's movements.
Here, Su Ti finished the call and turned around——
Chen Bai and Tang Decai were seen chatting enthusiastically, their faces beaming, and they were almost like close brothers.
Three minutes later.
Su Ti spoke to Tang Decai alone for a few words and then let him go back first.
He followed Chen Bai into the elevator and went straight to the Ronggang Pingjiang branch on the 27th floor.
It was lunch time, and the branch was bustling with employees coming in and out.
So, many people saw that Assistant Director Chen Bai led a little girl with two pigtails wearing a white T-shirt and denim overalls into Mr. Rong's office.
Wow!
Someone said: "What a beautiful little girl."
Someone laughed: "It's another youngster from Mr. Rong's family."
'Junior' Su Ti followed Chen Bai to the door of Rong Shaoting's boss' office.
After knocking on the door, the man responded calmly, "Come in."
Su Ti raised her brows and fingered her thoughts.
This was the second time I heard Rong Shaoting say the word "进". It still felt familiar to me.
Where have you heard this before?
Before Su Ti could figure out what was going on, the office door opened and what came into view was a tall figure sitting in front of the boss's desk, writing with a pen.
It was like there was a little person dancing ballet in Suti's heart.
One thump, two thumps...the beating speed gradually became abnormal.
The temperature in the boss's office was cool, and there was a faint smell of tobacco in the air.
Rong Shaoting was sitting behind the table. When he heard the light footsteps, he slowly opened his eyelids.
Su Ti stood not far away with his hands behind his back, calling out, "Mr. Rong."
The man glanced at her subtly, his eyes full of interest, "Come in and sit down."
Suti looked around.
There were two chairs opposite the boss's desk. If she sat on them it would be like an interview.
There is a seating area near the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Su Ti didn't think about it and walked straight to the window.
In the 300-square-meter office, Su Ti sat on the sofa and turned to look at Rong Shaoting. At that time, there was only one thought in her mind:
It’s so far, so far, so far. At this distance, you have to shout to talk, right?
Rong Shaoting was dealing with the trivial matters at hand and didn't hear any movement from Su Ti for a long time.
He slowly raised his eyes and saw the little girl with her knees together, her hands in the pockets of her overalls, moving little by little towards the edge of the sofa near him.
I don't know how many times the word cute has popped up in my mind.
The man's Adam's apple rolled and he lowered his eyes to look at the document again, but he found it difficult to read.
After a while, Rong Shaoting closed the pen cap, leaned back in his boss chair, and jokingly whispered, "Didn't you say you would buy me coffee? Why didn't you bring it with you?"
Su Ti raised her chin and raised her voice slightly, "The takeaway will be delivered soon."
Seeing this, the man curled his lips slightly, stood up on his knees, and walked slowly towards the tea bar.
"What time do you go to work this afternoon?"
Su Ti looked at Rong Shaoting's elegant back as he poured tea, and swallowed, "One-thirty."
Rong Shaoting glanced at her sideways and said in a calm voice: "That's great. After dinner, let Chen Bai take you back to the company."
"Will it disturb your work?" Su Ti scratched her head: "I can go back and eat."
The man looked at her deeply and said, "It's lunch break, so it's not a bother."
Passing the teacup to Su Ti, Rong Shaoting whispered again, "Even if you don't come, I still want to eat."
Su Ti took it with both hands, smiled, and her eyes involuntarily fell on the man's broad shoulders.
Just now, when he leaned over to hand over the tea, the black cloth on his shoulders was stretched tight.
The texture of the trapezius muscle is fitted with the shirt, showing a strong and symmetrical sense of power.
Su Ti was so engrossed in watching that his wandering gaze shifted a few inches upwards.
Until it landed on the plump Adam's apple, my fingertips felt itchy and I wanted to poke it to see if it would prick my hand.
Suddenly, Rong Shaoting spoke in a hoarse voice, "What are you looking at?"
"Hmm?" Su Ti came back to her senses, raised her eyes, and unexpectedly bumped into the man's dark and deep eyes. Her brain short-circuited on the spot, "Look at your Adam's apple..."
Rong Shaoting was no longer surprised by the girl's unusual thinking. He smiled slightly and asked, "What did you see?"
Su Ti realized that she had blurted out some lewd words and her face turned red instantly.
Then, pretending to be calm, he clenched his fist, gave a thumbs-up, and praised, "You look really good, rounder than my dad's."
Father Su, who was far away at the company reading the financial report, frowned and scratched his not-too-obvious Adam's apple. Why did it suddenly feel so itchy?
At this time, the delivery call from the delivery man saved Suti from embarrassment.
She walked out quickly, shaking her phone. "The takeaway is here. I'll take it. The coffee is in his hand."
Rong Shaoting looked at her panicked back, closed his eyes slightly, and a faint laugh escaped from his throat.
She is really... a silly girl.
