The cook's choice

Qiao Zhuyu, is on vacation.

After two days of work, she was given a week's vacation.

Li Lin didn't even give her time to pack her luggage, so she hurriedly took a vacation.

She didn't open Jiang Qi's door that morning, but when she heard the movement and no one responded no matter how she knocked on the door, she had to dial Li Lin's phone.

"Zhuyu, Xiao Chen and I will go over now, you go home first, you can leave quickly before Xiao Chen and I go over, and give you a week's leave.

Li Lin's voice on the phone was tense and serious, and she couldn't refuse, Qiao Zhuyu could even imagine Li Lin's stiff face on the other side of the phone.

She didn't even have a chance to ask why, so Li Lin hung up the phone in a hurry, and no matter how many questions she had, she didn't have a chance to ask.

When Qiao Zhuyu left the villa, the breakfast table was still in place.

No one rode her sophomore or eighth, and she walked for almost an hour before leaving the villa area in the middle of the lake, raised her hand and hailed a taxi home.

On the second day of the holiday, Qiao Zhuyu ate the fruit cut for her by Qiao's mother on the sofa at home, and watched TV with Qiao's mother.

Qiao's mother glanced at her smiling daughter, who was half a kiwi in one bite, without the slightest ladylike temperament, and couldn't help but turn her face away, and asked, "Are you going to gnaw at home?"

Qiao Zhuyu was inexplicable: "Where am I gnawing old, I'm on vacation, isn't it good to come back to accompany you and my dad?" Otherwise, count on my brother, who is a busy man who may not be able to come back a few times a year? As soon as the

words fell, the door opened at the entrance, and Qiao Shi put down his bag and said while changing his shoes: "Who said I can't come back a few times a year?"

Qiao Zhuyu sat up straight and said in surprise: "Brother? How did you get back?

Qiao Shi walked to the living room, loosened the button of the suit with one hand, and stroked Qiao Zhuyu's head twice with the other, and said: "I just finished a big project, and the customer is very satisfied, so I gave myself a few days off and came back to see my parents."

Qiao's mother frowned and looked at the two of them running home on vacation, and sighed: "It's weird and nice, why look at me and your father, I thought I didn't know that you came back to be a young master, right?"

Qiao Zhuyu and Qiao Shi glanced at each other and exchanged a look to start acting.

Qiao Zhuyu stuck it on Qiao's mother, and the words she said were all slimy: "Mom, can I make you your favorite milk soup fish balls tonight?"

After all, Qiao Shi is also a thirty-year-old man, and he can't do anything so embarrassing as Qiao Zhuyu, so he made a cup of big red robe and put it in front of Qiao's mother: "Mom, you taste it, I bought it from a customer, and it is said that one or two is 6,000 yuan."

Qiao's mother glanced at Qiao, picked up the tea bowl and tasted it carefully, her appearance suddenly became serious, and then she took another sip, looking like she had been smoothed out, and raised her eyebrows: "Your customer has a heart, so he sold you 6,000."

As soon as they heard this tone, the Qiao brothers and sisters knew that there was no problem in the past few days, and they breathed a sigh of relief.

Qiao's mother and Qiao's father are both university professors, retired at home in the past two years to cultivate a little hobby, Qiao's father likes to carry a fishing rod and carry a small horse to fish around, rain or shine, Qiao's mother pays the most attention to maintaining herself, so she is reluctant to come and go in the wind and rain, she loves to taste tea and study tea art on weekdays, and it has really become such a thing, and now she still has a place in a tea association.

Coaxed the most difficult Lafayette in the family, the brother and sister accompanied Qiao's mother to watch Korean dramas, and the living room was full of joy.

At dinner, Qiao's father also came back, with two fresh tarpon.

Qiao Zhuyu went into the kitchen to take over, handled the fish carefully, and planned to make milk soup and fish balls at night.

Qiao Shi took advantage of the fact that his parents were in the living room, and also walked into the kitchen, rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, and helped Qiao Zhuyu wash the dishes.

"Yo, the social elite is also willing to wash their hands and make soup? Qiao Zhuyu scratched the fish scales and teased her brother.

Qiao Shi threw the droplets of water on his hand to Qiao Zhuyu's face: "Less poor."

Qiao Zhuyu didn't raise her head, and flashed to the side like an unpredictable prophet, Qiao Shi pounced, and she stuck out her tongue: "Childish." "

I'm here to tell you what to be serious," Qiao Shi smiled, and the iceberg face that Barrister Qiao used to have when he worked reappeared in the kitchen, "What's going on with your current job?"

Qiao Zhuyu took the knife in his hand, and the smile on his face faded a little.

"Didn't I show you the contract, and what else did you ask? Qiao Zhuyu said.

"I remember telling you that the contract was so idealistic that there was no such thing as pie in the sky.

Qiao Zhuyu looked at her brother's indifferent and ruthless appearance, and coquettishly pouted: "What are you doing so fiercely, I am not your client."

Qiao Shi looked at his younger sister, who was like a flower and jade from a young age, his heart softened, and he sighed, after all, he couldn't say anything serious, and said in a soft tone: "I didn't kill you, I was just worried about you, afraid that you would be deceived." "

I know, brother," Qiao Zhuyu said, "If I have something, I will definitely tell you, and I won't let you worry."

"Then do you know what's going on with your current boss? Qiao Shi asked.

"I know, Jiang Qi, a well-known actor. Qiao Zhuyu said.

Qiao Shi nodded: "What else?"

Qiao Zhuyu was dumbfounded, no matter how much, it seemed that she couldn't say it, she didn't even have a chance to open her mouth about what she wanted to ask Jiang Qi.

Qiao Shi saw Qiao Zhuyu's dazed appearance, and changed the question: "You only worked for two days this time and took a holiday, why?"

"I don't know why. Qiao Zhuyu's voice was low, almost inaudible.

"I've helped Starlight Entertainment deal with a few cases before, and I'm quite familiar with their high-level management, as far as I know," Qiao Shi paused deliberately, and didn't continue until Qiao Zhuyu looked at him, "Jiang Qi has a relatively serious mental illness.

"Mental illness? Qiao Zhuyu was stunned.

"I don't know the specifics, and only a few people in Starlight Entertainment know about this matter, and the clearer details are estimated to be only known to his agent. Qiao Shi said.

Does Jiang Qi have mental illness? Why can't she see it for the past two days?

Jiang Qi in life will make a little confusion, but he is still so serious when he works, who can see that he has mental illness?

Was it because of his illness yesterday morning?

A series of questions lingered in Qiao Zhuyu's heart, and she didn't come back to her senses until the fish under her hand didn't die, and her tail pumped her face.

"Are you colluding with this fish to harm me? Qiao Zhuyu made a gesture to rub Qiao Shize's clean white shirt.

Qiao Shi didn't hide, but only said after Qiao Zhuyu wiped the water clean: "There is a fishy smell, you wash my clothes."

Qiao Zhuyu ignored the threat that was not threatening in the slightest.

"Let you two cook and play in the kitchen, won't you? Qiao's mother's voice suddenly appeared.

The two of them suddenly sped up the movements under their hands, lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak, honestly, no moreThe shadow of barristers and influencers.

Qiao's mother's gaze swept over the two thieves, and slowly went upstairs to change clothes.

When the door closed upstairs, the two of them gasped.

"I'll tell you," Qiao Shi looked at Qiao Zhuyu, "There must be some ulterior secrets behind such a good treatment, the entertainment industry is already deep, and I also saw the hot search you were on the hot search two days ago, this is a lesson."

Qiao Zhuyu listened silently and did not speak.

Qiao Shi finally said: "Take advantage of now, the sooner you leave, the better, with me at home, you don't need such a high salary to be a big lady with peace of mind." "

-

In the villa area in the middle of the lake, Jiang Qi's room is a pig's nest again, everything that shouldn't be on the ground is scattered on the ground, it was originally intact and now it is fragmented, the morning sun is blocked by thick curtains, and only the floor lamp at the head of the bed is turned on in the room, Jiang Qi is supporting one leg and sitting under the dim halo.

Outside the door, Li Lin looked worried, and discussed Jiang Qi's condition with Cheng Shuda, a psychiatrist in a white coat.

"When I called the night before yesterday, I was fine, I didn't hear anything wrong, who knew that Qiao Zhuyu called me yesterday when it was almost noon, saying that Jiang Qi didn't open the door at all, and the movement in the room was not right, I realized that something was wrong at the time, and quickly let Qiao Zhuyu leave, and when Xiao Chen and I came, Jiang Qi had already fainted, and the things that should have been smashed were almost smashed.

Cheng Shuda listened to Li Lin's description, pondered for a few seconds, and asked, "Did anything happen that irritated him?" "

Only the day before yesterday, he was on a hot search because of his affair with Qiao Zhuyu. Li Lin thought about it, and there was nothing else to do.

"It should be more than that," Cheng Shuda said, "It's a very common thing for Jiang Qi to be on the hot search, I did a psychological analysis of him before, and came to the conclusion that the black material from the outside world hurt him very little, so the reason for his illness again cannot be those black hot searches."

Li Lin was stunned: "You mean ......"

Cheng Shuda is the same age as Jiang Qi, with a good appearance, silver-rimmed glasses, full of gentle and elegant bookish air, but every word he said could not be ignored: "It's the reason for the private chef."

"But how could that be? Jiang Qi will obviously see her video, it will be much better?

Cheng Shuda lifted his glasses and said: "Looking at a person through the screen, and this person appearing around him are two completely different situations, when Jiang Qi is just a person watching unilaterally, his consciousness is only invested in the picture in the video, but when the two people communicate, Jiang Qi will pay more attention to his own image and the feelings of others, which is equivalent to saying that there are more factors that affect Jiang Qi's collapse."

Li Lin listened to a lot of this and accurately distilled the central idea: "When Qiao Zhuyu is by Jiang Qi's side, not only will she not play a role in appeasing, but will make Jiang Qi more vulnerable?"

Cheng Shuda put his hands in his pockets and nodded: "According to the current situation, this is indeed the case."

"What do you mean by the current situation? Li Lin frowned.

Another situation is to tell Jiang Qi's condition directly to the private chef, so that she can also join the treatment process, avoid irritation to Jiang Qi, and at the same time consciously comfort him.

"No way. Li Lin refused.

Cheng Shuda's attitude towards Li Lin is not surprising: "Then the only way to leave is to let the private chef leave forever, so that there is a way to go."

Li Lin didn't say anything, as if she was thinking about whether there was a better way.

Cheng Shuda waited patiently for a long time before saying: "Actually, let that private chef try, it's not a solution, either keep it as it is, Jiang Qi will never recover, or seek a breakthrough, maybe there is still a chance." "

But ......" Li Lin sighed, "Jiang Qi is not an ordinary person, if this matter is leaked out, the risk is too great, I can't risk his life's career."

"This is Jiang Qi's career, why don't you ask him what he means? What if he was willing to try? Cheng Shuda asked.

Li Lin was still hesitating, but it was not a way to continue with such a stalemate, and just as she was about to push the door to ask Jiang Qi, her mobile phone rang.

It was Qiao Zhuyu who sent her the message.
