[WrongThenWrong] Chapter 53.2 — Wristwatch

Before going to the press conference, in order to avoid the confusion outside, Cheng Liu and He Bai went in separate cars. He Bai went in Cheng Liu’s car and entered through the main gate, while Cheng Liu sat in another car and was to enter from the alley.

However, just before driving into the small road, Cheng Liu suddenly asked the driver to stop.

“President Cheng, if we stop here, you will be discovered by the media outside,” the driver warned.

“It doesn’t matter, you stop here now,” Cheng Liu said this and then hurried out as soon as the car stopped.

… …

Kong Zhouyun on the opposite side of the road quickly began to take pictures of Cheng Liu who was getting out of the car. He saw that she did not go towards the press conference but walked to another intersection. He quickly adjusted the camera lens.

… …

When Cheng Liu had been sitting in the car earlier, she looked out the window casually and her vision suddenly froze: she seemed to have seen Ji Chaozhou!

She originally thought she was hallucinating. She blinked a few times, and the car drew closer and closer to that intersection as they headed to the press conference.

It really was Ji Chaozhou!

He wore a dark green coat today. The collar of his light-colored shirt was folded over a coffee-colored v-neck sweater. The two buttons of the coat were unbuttoned, and he was wearing beige trousers, casual and elegant.

Ji Chaozhou stood under the streetlight and seemed to be looking towards the entrance of the building where the press conference would be held.

Cheng Liu had immediately asked the driver to stop the car and got out by herself.

“Why are you here?” Cheng Liu walked quickly to Ji Chaozhou and asked, “Have you finished eating?”

Ji Chaozhou was startled when he saw her. He thought Cheng Liu was in the black SUV that just passed by. But now, the first question she asked when she saw him was whether he had eaten.

“Are you ready for the press conference?” Ji Chaozhou raised his gaze, and his eyes fell on Cheng Liu. Did Mr. He choose the clothes he brought to her today?

“Yeah.” Cheng Liu was very happy to see Ji Chaozhou. “It’ll start soon. There shouldn’t be any problems.”

If He Bai were here, he would definitely see that the clothes Ji Chaozhou was wearing now were completely different from the ones he had on before, and the price has increased by several orders of magnitude.

However, in Young President Cheng’s eyes, Ji Chaozhou would be just as good-looking even if he was wearing a sack. She didn’t notice any difference at all.

Last night, after Ji Chaozhou heard Cheng Liu’s voice from Ji Mushan’s phone, he knew that she probably had a solution to the problem Shenyin was facing. However, when he saw He Bai today, he still came to the press conference for some reason, but did not come close, and just stood here. He didn’t expect to be discovered by Cheng Liu.

“Are you wearing this to the press conference?” Ji Chaozhou asked Cheng Liu.

Cheng Liu looked down at her clothes, then raised her head and said with a smile, “I think this outfit looks very good.”

“It’s not formal enough,” Ji Chaozhou said. He calmly pulled up the cuff of his left hand, took off the watch on his wrist, then took Cheng Liu’s left hand and put the watch on her wrist.

This was a navy blue pilot’s watch, the lugs were clear and distinct, the glass made of sapphire crystal, and the case titanium. At first glance,  it was clearly very expensive.

After putting it on Cheng Liu’s hand, the original looseness and laziness of her outfit were immediately suppressed.

Cheng Liu looked at Ji Chaozhou’s long eyelashes lowered across his cheeks as he put on his watch on her wrist, and she felt little dazed. Her emotions were completely stable when thinking about the press conference, but now, as she looked at the person in front of her, her heart was beating extremely violently.

Kong Zhouyun, who standing diagonally across from them at the intersection, looked at the scene through the viewfinder of his camera, his heart also beating wildly.

Wasn’t this the extremely handsome young man from the airport? He actually ran into them again!

Kong Zhouyun frantically pressed the shutter button—this scene of these two people standing together was beautiful enough to be used as a magazine photo cover.

Right now the two of them were standing under the street lamp. A deep orange light was shining on them from above, and a shallow halo had fallen on their heads. The handsome young man was holding Cheng Liu’s hand, his head lowered, and putting on her watch for her with gentle, careful movements.

Kong Zhouyun got carried away taking pictures. If these two were not a couple, he would swallow his camera tonight!

… …

Cheng Liu looked at the watch in her wrist and said to Ji Chaozhou sincerely, “Thank you.” For a moment, she was nearly overwhelmed with the desire to confess her love for him.

It was a pity that the time was not right: she still had to go to the press conference.

“I’m going back.” Ji Chaozhou released Cheng Liu’s hand and took a step back.

Cheng Liu lowered her hand and put it behind her. She secretly touched the watch with her other hand. It still had Ji Chaozhou’s body temperature on it. The inside of the titanium dial was warm. 

She said calmly, “Okay, pay attention to safety. “

Ji Chaozhou turned around and left first. He had driven over and had parked nearby.

His car was usually parked in Ranshan Building and was rarely used. In order to drive here, Ji Chaozhou first made a special trip to Ranshan to get it.

Ji Chaozhou turned around and looked down at his hands. This was the first time he had taken the initiative to hold Cheng Liu’s hand. Originally, he only wanted to let her dress more formally and make her aura stronger, so he didn’t think too much about it.

But now that he was walking away, the feeling from that scene just now kept coming back to him.

The tips of Ji Chaozhou’s ears were a little hot, but his face remained calm and cool.

… …

Cheng Liu watched Ji Chaozhou drive away before she turned around and continued walking to the press conference. She stopped when she crossed the intersection.

“You…” Cheng Liu looked at Kong Zhouyun standing on the roadside, “You look familiar.”

Kong Zhouyun, who didn’t have time to put away the camera: “…”

“Were you taking pictures of us just now?” Cheng Liu asked, pointing at his camera.

Kong Zhouyun continued to be silent: “…” Why were there no other media people around! He was the only one here and he was was really scared ah!

“Show me.” Cheng Liu raised her wrist and glanced at the watch. There were still fifteen minutes before the press conference started.

“Ah?” Kong Zhouyun was stunned. Was she going to take his camera and smash it?

“Let me see the pictures you took,” Cheng Liu reached for the camera.

Kong Zhouyun dragged his feet but could only reluctantly release his hold.

Cheng Liu took the camera and looked at the photos inside. She stared at it for a while, looked at all the photos, and then returned the camera to him and sincerely praised, “The photos are very good.”

Kong Zhouyun, “Huh?”

Cheng Liu took out her mobile phone and opened the WeChat QR code. “Add me as friend and send me the photos.”

Kong Zhouyun, “Huh?”

Cheng Liu looked at Kong Zhouyun in surprise, “Are you… deaf-mute?”

Kong Zhouyun finally managed a sentence, “No.”

“Add me on WeChat. I will ask you to be our wedding photographer in the future,” Cheng Liu said seriously.

Kong Zhouyun was shocked again, “Huh?”

“Hurry up and add me on WeChat. I have a press conference to hold,” Cheng Liu urged him.

A minute later, Cheng Liu has added Kong Zhouyun’s WeChat account, noted his name, and reminded him before leaving, “Don’t forget to send all these photos to me, without leaving out a single one.”

Kong Zhouyun finally recovered from his confusion, “Do you want the photos from the airport as well?”

How did this even happen… he not only managed to take the most important photos, but also added the founder of Shenyin on WeChat, and was actually invited to be her wedding photographer! ! !

This must be a dream!

Cheng Liu had already walked away. When she heard this, she came back, looked at the reporter’s face, and suddenly realized, “So it turned out to be you.”
