42 - "Then just think of me as... winning the jackpot tonight."

Dense and slanting drizzle floated in the cold and humid air. In the huge light and shadow illuminated by the street lamp, it was like a movie scene with the pause button pressed.

Under the umbrella, there was a couple kissing so hard that they couldn't leave each other.

Cheng Li never expected that she would kiss on the street.

Even though it was already late at night, there were no pedestrians around. There was only the sound of rain pouring into their ears, the heartbeat on the noisy dust, and the emotions in their hearts.

When Rong Qi let go of her again, the touch on her lips did not disappear immediately.

The grinding of her ears and temples made her blush so much that she could hardly find the channel for normal breathing.

At this moment, both of them were breathing a little breathlessly.

Cheng Li lowered her eyelids and didn't even know where to look.

"Go home," until Rong Qi's voice sounded above him, his voice was a little too hoarse. He obviously didn't drink, so how could he be so hoarse.

Cheng Li lowered her head and said, "Yeah."

But she soon discovered that beer was rolling on the ground.

When he leaned over to kiss her just now, Cheng Li let go and dropped the bag she was carrying on the ground.

The beer inside rolled out of the bag.

"Wait a minute, I'll pick this up," Cheng Li said.

She was about to bend down, but someone grabbed her shoulders in time, preventing her from bending down.

"I'll do it," Rong Qi said in a low voice, and then the umbrella handle was stuffed into Cheng Li's hand: "Help me first, take the umbrella."

Cheng Li saw him squat down and pick up the beer bottle, she reminded: "This The bag seems dirty."

"Wait for me," Rong Qi stood up and entered the convenience store again.

Soon, he was holding a new plastic bag and a pack of paper towels he had just bought. He picked up the beer can on the ground, wiped the rain off the can with a paper towel, and then put it into the plastic bag.

After a while, he put all the beer and snacks into new bags.

Then he threw the dirty plastic bag into the trash can next to him.

After doing all this, he walked back under the umbrella.

In the past few minutes, Cheng Li held an umbrella and watched him pack his things. The cold wind blew against her face, but it did not clear her head, which was so hot.

Even standing here, she still felt dizzy.

It felt like she was hit by a sudden and huge surprise, and she didn't dare to think about it.

I'm afraid that if I think about it carefully, it will all be a dream.

She would wake up from her dream at any time.

It's like she bought a lottery ticket casually because she originally wanted to win five million.

After the lottery was drawn, she discovered that the ticket she bought at random actually won five million.

It was obvious that she had not put in all the effort she had just prepared.

Everything she wanted was available.

But thinking about it carefully, Cheng Li felt that all this happened so naturally.

The answer is so obvious.

Although Rong Qi's mouth occasionally twitched and tightened, he probably never disliked her. No, he probably always had a good impression of her.

Maybe he, like her, got married impulsively at first.

But at the very least, they are serious about each other.

Seriously.

Cheng Li pursed her lips and smiled. The more she thought about it, the more her ears felt hot, like a child getting candy. The sweet taste was about to permeate her entire chest.

Rong Qi reached out to take the umbrella in her hand and found that she did not let go.

He lowered his eyes to look at her, only to find that her eyes were divergent, and she was obviously still in a daze, but the corners of her mouth remained slightly raised.

With a low cough, Cheng Li came back to his senses.

She looked at Rong Qi's hand, which was already holding the umbrella handle, and then quickly let go and let him take the umbrella.

Cheng Li reached out to take the bag in his hand: "I'll carry this."

"No," Rong Qi didn't let her take it.

Because she was afraid of tearing the bag, Cheng Li fought with him again. The two of them walked forward, preparing to cross the road to the underground garage of Rongqi Company.

But when we got to the zebra crossing, it happened to be a red light.

Although it was late at night, the two of them stopped at the same time.

Cheng Li looked forward seriously without squinting. Suddenly, the man beside her said, "Come closer to me."

Huh?

Cheng Li turned her head and heard him say calmly: "It's raining heavily."

Oh, that's it.

Cheng Li moved a little closer to him, leaving only a small gap between the two of them, but this didn't seem to satisfy him, so she said again: "No matter how close you are."

But this time, his arm carrying the thing was slightly raised. , made a gesture.

Only then did Cheng Li understand what he meant, and said deliberately: "How close do you need to be? If you don't tell me clearly, I won't understand."

She imitated his previous behavior, dragging her voice slowly.

Since some people like to speak harshly.

She still wanted to pry his mouth open.

Rong Qi heard the teasing in her voice, turned his head and looked at her face, looking at the corners of her raised lips. Finally, he finally said again: "Hold me."

This is right.

He was clearly thinking badly in his heart, but his mouth was still so harsh.

Although Cheng Li was happy with her short-term victory.

But without hesitating for a second, he directly raised his hand and gently held the elbow of the hand holding his umbrella.

The green light comes on.

The two of them lifted their feet almost at the same time and walked forward.

When she was about to cross the zebra crossing, Cheng Li saw that the umbrella he was holding was pouring towards her, and the rain fell on half of his shoulders. She subconsciously reminded: "Put the umbrella closer to you, your shoulders are getting wet." , my shoulders are enough."

"It's okay, we're here."

Cheng Li had no choice but to follow his footsteps and walk quickly to the door of the building.

They took the elevator from the building to the underground parking lot.

Soon, Cheng Li followed Rong Qi to a parking space, which was the Porsche he occasionally drove.

Cheng Li looked at the exclusive parking space sign on the ground and sighed: "You are really successful in having an exclusive parking space in Shanghai, Mr. Rong."

"I would think your tone is ironic," Rong Qi said Take the bag in your hand to the trunk and put it away.

Then he walked to the passenger door again and opened the door.

Cheng Li said seriously: "It's just envy. You don't know how difficult it is to park in the parking space in our company. Our colleagues who buy cars have been complaining." Difficulty

parking is also the reason why Cheng Li is reluctant to buy a car so far.

After the two got in the car, Rong Qicai said: "You have never wanted to drive, is it because parking is difficult?"

"That's right," Cheng Li said, "When I first started working in the company, I drove my dad's car for a while, but it turned out that it was not as fast as me squeezing the subway to work."

And since marrying him, she has basically been Car pick up and drop off.

Either he picked me up or the driver, so the number of taxi rides decreased.

Rong Qi thought for a moment: "Actually, you can rent a parking space directly from the building. If you want to drive by yourself, I will ask He Zhuoyuan to help you handle it."

"No," Cheng Li shook her head quickly. She smiled and said, "I just said it casually. Let's talk."

Rong Qi said as he started the car, "Then let the driver pick you up. It's safer. After all, after working overtime at night, it's easy to drive tired."

After saying this, the car drove smoothly out of the underground garage.

Because Rong Qi was driving, the two of them didn't speak much along the way, and the car remained dark and quiet.

Occasionally, out of the corner of her eye, Cheng Li glanced at the man beside her.

Although the ripples in my heart have calmed down a lot compared to just now, they are still surging.

Until finally arriving home.

After entering the house, Cheng Li had just changed her shoes at the entrance when she saw Rong Qi taking off her coat, looked at her and asked, "Where do you want to drink?"

What to drink?

Cheng Li was stunned at first, then remembered the plastic bag he was carrying.

It contained the beer she bought.

Cheng Li looked around and pointed to the floor-to-ceiling window: "How about drinking on the window sill?"

Although he couldn't see the river view now, he was facing the glass and listening to the sound of rain outside, drinking a small drink leisurely. , this picture, just thinking about it, makes me feel so comfortable and comfortable.

"Go and change into comfortable pajamas," Rong Qi said warmly, looking at her clothes.

Cheng Li nodded. She went back to her room first, put away her clothes and bag, and changed into a set of pajamas.

Fortunately, the central air conditioning is turned on at home and the temperature is very suitable.

She changed into a set of plush warm white pajamas, with two long rabbit ears hanging from the hood of her pajamas.

When she came out of the room, she found that Rong Qi had actually changed the layout of the living room.

He dragged the sofa directly towards the floor-to-ceiling window, and also took a large blanket and spread it comfortably on it. However, he himself was wearing a dark black pullover sweater and sports trousers, and there was no drawstring on the waist of the trousers. Tie, hang loosely.

When Cheng Li came over, Rong Qi raised his head and was about to pull back the blanket and let her sit down.

I saw a section of bunny ears peeking out from behind her hat.

The long pink ears hung on the back of her neck, just like her drooping ears.

"It's raining so hard outside," Cheng Li picked up a can of beer unceremoniously, reached out to pull the tab, took a small peck, held the beer in both hands, and looked out the window quietly.

At this time, the rain fell on the glass and flowed down the glass window.

On the transparent glass, water lines are formed.

Rong Qi sat down next to her, reached for the blanket and covered her bare feet. He reached out and got a bottle of beer for himself. After he opened it, Cheng Li took the initiative to come over and said, "Cheers." "Cheers,

" Rong Qi let her touch the beer can in his hand.

Cheng Li took another sip, then turned to look at him and said, "You must be very annoyed today."

"Fortunately," Rong Qi suddenly thought that he seemed to have used this answer before, and then he explained: "The company operates During this period, various problems will inevitably arise. There are problems in the startup period. During rapid development, although profits are increasing, some problems cannot be covered up. Anyway, there are always small problems stacked on top of big ones. What we have to do is, Just to solve these problems."

Cheng Li nodded in agreement: "Me too. Since I temporarily took over the company, I have discovered how happy I was when I was only doing technology. Now the company's paper roll problems have to be asked by the finance department. "Me."

She took the opportunity to sit on the sofa and sighed: "I am not only an expert in self-driving, I will soon become an expert in rolling paper. I know which rolling paper has the best quality and the best price on the market. Everything is clear."

"You must learn to let your subordinates solve problems appropriately," Rong Qi said with a smile in his voice.

Cheng Li said: "I just think that I am in charge of the company temporarily. In fact, what I prefer is to do research and development."

Rong Qi suddenly asked: "Why did you learn this in the first place?"

Most girls have no interest in science and engineering. , the male-to-female ratio in some science and engineering departments in universities is almost exaggerated.

Cheng Li caused a sensation as soon as she entered the school, not just because she was beautiful.

It is also because there are too few girls in the department, but there is still a girl who is comparable to the beauty of the Communication Department and is willing to study such a boring major.

When it comes to this, Cheng Li is obviously very interested.

"In the past few days, I took the time to go to the car factory. When I saw that my idea was realized bit by bit, I was really moved. Looking at the car, I thought that I can also change people. life."

Rong Qi leaned on the back of the sofa with one hand, leaning against his cheek and listening intently to her words.

"Can you imagine that one day, when people drive the self-driving cars we designed, they will have truly self-driving cars that are efficient, fast and safe, just like when we first held a mobile phone and used a mobile phone to pay for the first time In that way, we didn't understand at that time that what these technologies brought to us was an epoch-making change."

"People can either live in mediocrity and do nothing, or they can just work hard and do what they want to do. . And I am more willing to do what I want to do. I hope that I can also participate in an epoch-making cause. Maybe I am not the best among them, but it is because of the efforts of our generation that we will move towards it. That goal is moving forward."

"I hope that one day I can see with my own eyes the realization of true autonomous driving technology."

Along with the sound of raindrops falling outside the glass window, her clear and somewhat passionate voice made this originally peaceful scene. The night became restless.

Cheng Li has never been a person who likes to talk, and she has never told others why she studied science and engineering or why she chose the direction of autonomous driving.

In this era, many people talk about money and few talk about ideals.

Even the word ideal has a sense of ridicule.

Many people don't want to say the word ideal easily, but these two words are so brilliant and desirable, and worthy of everyone's efforts.

Cheng Li didn't say anything because she felt that those people were not worthy of her words.

But when facing Rong Qi, the words in her heart came out.

What should be said and what should not be said.

She wanted to tell him.

About her ideals and the bright future she wants to build.

Because she always longs for someone who can understand her.

"I also hope to see this day," Rong Qi stared straight at her, his voice soft but firm. At this moment, he was shocked by her burning heart.

He always thought that she had moved him enough and surprised him enough.

But she could always give him more shock.

Cheng Li chuckled: "Okay, no matter whether we are competitors or something in the future, I will not give up easily when I meet you."

On the autonomous driving track, they may eventually meet.

Whether it's competition or something else, after all, they are walking on the same road.

She and he walked side by side.

At this time, Cheng Li had finished drinking the beer in her hand, and she reached out and put the empty bottle next to her.

He reached into the bag again and picked up another can.

"We obviously agreed, drinking beer and not thinking about anything," Cheng Li lay down on the sofa again and muttered to herself, "But I still said so much."

Rong Qi saw that she had been holding on to the tab for a long time, and was shocked. Not opened.

He reached out and took the beer can, but Cheng Li thought he was going to steal her beer, so she held it in her arms: "This is mine."

She raised her head, her cheeks flushed from the alcohol.

"I know it's yours, I just want to help you open it."

Rong Qi took advantage of the situation and went to get it again, but unexpectedly he pulled her whole body directly into his arms.

In an instant, the distance was drawn closer.

Cheng Li was so close that he could clearly see a very shallow mole on the tip of his nose. The center of his brow was connected to the nose bone, and the outline was superior and deep. He did not have the kind of deep double eyelids, but an arc with a small opening. , the ends of the eyes are thin and upturned, the eyes that are always cold and clean are still black and white at this time, but they are no longer sparse, as if there is a storm gathering inside.

At this short distance, Cheng Li met Rong Qi's eyes.

She seemed to see the storm in his eyes about to hit.

Her heart skipped a beat, as if she were on an accelerating roller coaster, and her beats gradually increased in frequency.

Rong Qi no longer cared about the can of beer in her hand, because his palm touched the back of Cheng Li's neck, and he pinched it lightly and purposefully with his fingertips, as if he would make her fall with just a little force. would be brought closer to him.

Cheng Li felt that the skin on the back of her neck was getting hotter.

Still slightly numb.

Until she looked at him, looked at herself, and asked in a low voice: "Do you want to do it again?"

Do it again?

Cheng Li repeated these four words silently on his lips.

After understanding what he meant, Cheng Li smiled slightly drunkenly: "Do you think this is winning a lottery?"

When they were young, when they bought drinks, what they looked forward to most was to be able to drink it from the bottle cap. There was a sign for another bottle.

Rong Qi's words made Cheng Li instantly think of his original feeling of expectation.

Rong Qi seemed to be thinking about the same thing as her, but his eyes were hot and focused, and his voice said with a very seductive force: "Then you will treat me as tonight..."

Before Cheng Li could react, Rong Qi's lips He had already covered her, holding her lips in his mouth, and whispered softly: "I won the first prize."

As soon as the words fell, Cheng Li felt the tip of his tongue, prying open his lips and teeth, and drove straight in.

Instead of the obvious slightly raw feeling the first time, he seemed to be a little more at ease this time. He gently sucked her lips, sucked her little by little, and entwined his tongue. It was different from the kiss outside just now, and it was a little bit more... Restraint and temptation, this one is more unbridled and lingering.

The two of them were lying on the sofa, tightly touching each other. Rong Qi's palm that was originally on her neck slowly moved up, his fingers were inserted into her long hair, and he clasped the back of her head. While kissing her closely, he didn't allow her any room to retreat.

In the quiet and empty living room, the lights are bright, and each other's breathing has long lost its calmness, and has become chaotic and rapid. It is even harder to tell whose breathing is more chaotic.

In my ears, the thin, dense and ambiguous sound of water from the kiss was infinitely amplified by this closed and quiet space. The only sound of the rain outside the glass window was like the accompaniment of music.

Cheng Li closed her eyes slightly, but through her thin eyelids, her senses became more and more sensitive.

Especially when she smelled the smell coming from Rong Qi. Both of them drank. The first thing they tasted in their mouths was the sourness of the alcohol residue on each other's tongues, but the sourness was absorbed by the kisses bit by bit.

Only the original smell of his body was left, which was the familiar smell of cold pine that Cheng Li was familiar with. It was crisp and clean, just like the smell that rose in the air after the first snowfall in a barren pine forest and snowfield, when the breeze blew by. breath.

It was obvious that the smell on his body was so cold, but his actions at the moment were warm and powerful.

Cheng Li's whole body was almost immersed in his body.

It's just that this posture is a little uncomfortable.

She hummed softly, Rong Qi stepped back slightly, lowered his eyes, and saw the girl in front of him, her eyes were slightly closed, her eyelashes were trembling, her cheeks were flushed, and she had a sense of submission that she was letting him have whatever he wanted.

Being so vulnerable and submissive made Rong Qi's heart beat faster and his throat began to feel tight.

Until Cheng Li saw that he had not moved for a long time, she opened her eyes again, but their eyes met each other. In the bright light, the confusion and infatuation in their eyes could not escape, and they were clearly reflected in each other's eyes.

At this moment, they were like two fires whose ashes had not been completely extinguished.

With just one look, sparks fly and reignite each other.

Rong Qi reached out and pulled her into his arms completely, letting her sit directly on his lap. He lay on his back, hooked her neck, lowered her head, and continued the kiss.

Rong Qi, who had tasted intimacy for the first time, seemed to be addicted. Even though Cheng Li stopped slightly in the middle because she was panting too much, but after a while, the two were kissing together again.

The body was so hot that it almost burned.

When they finally separated again, Cheng Li rested her chin on his shoulder. While she couldn't help but pant, she suddenly thought in her heart that it turned out that kissing was so tiring. Wouldn't it be okay to run down the fifteen meters that she failed to run in high school? So tired.

Just thinking about it, her eyelids became heavy.

Rong Qi originally wanted to wait for her breathing to calm down a little, but after a while, he suddenly realized that the person on his shoulder was motionless and had an extremely quiet posture.

After he listened carefully for a while, he heard Cheng Li's even and smooth breathing.

It is the breathing rate that occurs only when you are asleep.

For a moment, he sat there stunned.

After a while, it was finally confirmed that she was really asleep.

Rong Qi then slowly put her down from his shoulders, hugged her directly, and walked towards her room.

Put the person gently on the bed and cover him with the quilt again.

Rong Qi looked at Cheng Li's face, and suddenly felt helpless in his heart.

It's that kind of angry and funny feeling.

He had never heard of anyone falling asleep from exhaustion in the middle of a kiss.

After a while, he suddenly laughed.

Obviously, he hasn't had time to do the more tiring things yet.

The author has something to say:

Centimeter: Please tell me clearly, what is more tiring? ?

This time it was the container that kissed the female goose directly until she fell asleep from exhaustion, so what will it be next time...
