SD Chapter 1: Peeping
"Tao Mingzhuo." Yang Kening said, "I know you may not have noticed much, but I really feel that Vice President Jing is secretly looking at you."
At first, Tao Mingzhuo did not realize what this girl was saying. , as he was concentrating on peeling the shrimp on hand.
The tom yum gong shrimp served in the company canteen has always been excellent. The soup is refreshing and sweet, and the shrimp meat is chewy and delicious. The frequency of its appearance is about once every two weeks.
Therefore, Tao Mingzhuo's goal today was very clear. He didn't even put the rice in the bowl, he just had a big plate of shrimps and started to show off.
Realizing what Yang Kening had just said, Tao Mingzhuo's hand holding the chopsticks paused.
He smiled and said, "How is that possible? What are you talking about?"
"I'm not joking, I'm serious." Yang Kening was anxious, "I know you are the most serious person here every day, so you may not have I noticed, but at least I saw clearly just now that Mr. Jing’s gaze was definitely on you—”
“It’s okay,” Tao Mingzhuo interrupted her and said, “Stop it and eat your food. "
Yang Kening: "But-"
"Xiao Ning," Xu Yi said suddenly, "I got some vegetable soup on my sleeve. Can you get me a piece of paper?"
Yang Kening said, "Oh! With a sound, she turned around to help him get the paper on the table: "Where is it stained? Show me."
Xu Yi took the tissue and wiped it on his sleeves for a long time, and said slowly for a long time: "Huh? It doesn't seem to be stained. I made a mistake."
Yang Kening: "Are you kidding me?"
Xu Yi is a very shy and honest young man. He rarely takes the initiative to speak. He usually sits aside and listens to their chat happily.
Tao Mingzhuo knew that the reason why he committed such an inexplicable deception was probably because he saw that he didn't want to answer Yang Kening's question and wanted to save himself.
Tao Mingzhuo smiled at Xu Yi and nodded.
The shrimp in his mouth became tasteless as he chewed it. Tao Mingzhuo was a little absent-minded. His eyes crossed the crowd and finally landed on a figure by the window.
He saw Jing Ci peeling shrimps.
Jing Ci peeled the shrimp very slowly, as if what he was dealing with was not a shrimp shell covered in sauce, but an easily damaged work of art.
As if sensing Tao Mingzhuo's gaze, Jing Ci raised her eyes.
Tao Mingzhuo immediately tightened his jaw and looked away pretending to be calm.
In fact, Tao Mingzhuo knew better than anyone else that what Yang Kening just said was true.
However, the adjectives she used were somewhat inconsistent with the facts, that is, Jing Ci was never "secretly" looking at herself.
He had been blatantly observing Tao Mingzhuo.
In fact, this bold gaze has lasted for almost a month, and it has developed to the point where Tao Mingzhuo cannot ignore it.
Tao Mingzhuo is the original painting designer of this game company. The game he participated in the design has good sales results and is highly discussed. In addition, the team atmosphere is also very relaxed. The overall employment experience can be said to be very good.
It was the company's recently appointed vice president who made Tao Mingzhuo a little confused.
Two months ago, the company's general manager jubilantly announced that he would take an indefinite leave, and then handed over all power to the new executive vice president.
I heard rumors that Jing Ci seems to be an acquaintance of the boss. In short, he graduated from a prestigious overseas school and has excellent abilities. The flow of the first version update after taking office also confirmed that this person is indeed a smart decision-maker.
In short, a senior person with a position like Jing Ci should have little interaction with a painter from the R&D department like Tao Mingzhuo.
Even if Jing Ci wants to manage the art team on a whim one day, the person who talks directly to him should be the main artist.
So when he found out that Jing Ci was observing him, Tao Mingzhuo thought that he was wrong.
Tao Mingzhuo remembered clearly that he had a bowl of beef noodles at noon on the day he caught Jing Ci peeking at him.
He is tall and has a big appetite since he was a child, so his attitude when eating is much more correct than others, and he is basically concentrating on the meal.
At that time, he was halfway through the powder and felt it was a bit salty, so he raised his head and drank a lot of water. As soon as he put down the water bottle, he found someone staring at him.
Tao Mingzhuo choked.
Jing Ci was sitting in the corner of the restaurant, with no expression on his face. He was looking at Tao Mingzhuo quietly.
The sunshine that day was very good, so good that it was a bit dazzling. Jing Ci sat by the window again, her whole body enveloped in a warm-toned halo.
So Tao Mingzhuo was stunned for a moment, and he suspected that he might have been wrong.
He lowered his head and took a few mouthfuls of powder hesitantly. When he raised his head again, the clouds outside the window had blocked the sunlight.
His vision became much clearer in an instant, and then Tao Mingzhuo's heartbeat suddenly skipped a beat -
Jing Ci was still looking at him.
Tao Mingzhuo felt a little nervous now.
No matter how dull a person is, he cannot continue to work as if nothing has happened when his boss looks at him with such a "sharp" gaze.
Tao Mingzhuo thought the red sweatshirt he wore that day was too ostentatious, so the next day he changed into a low-key white T-shirt, ready to blend in with the restaurant wall.
Then he found that Jing Ci was still staring at his face.
And for two weeks in a row, Jing Ci would sit in the same position at noon every day, staring at Tao Mingzhuo's face with the same expression.
He never got up and took the initiative to have any conversation with Tao Mingzhuo. He was just observing Tao Mingzhuo silently.
Tao Mingzhuo didn't know why Jing Ci was staring at him like this, let alone what was so attractive about him. He only knew that the feeling of having his underwear seen through was really torturous.
Tao Mingzhuo felt depressed, and he began to feel a little unable to eat.
It was impossible for him to just go up and ask, "Can you stop staring at me? I'm a bit too cool to eat." Although most game companies have relatively flat management, the other person is still his boss after all. Tao Mingzhuo didn't want to be expelled the next day because of his breathing.
In the end, Tao Mingzhuo could only find an excuse to change seats with Yang Kening.
He chose to sit in a position where he would not see Jing Ci as soon as he raised his eyes, but he did not expect that after changing seats, Yang Kening, a sharp-eyed girl, would notice the clues.
Yang Kening was silent for a while, and then couldn't help but say: "It's absolutely true, Mr. Jing is looking at you again now. Really, if you don't believe it, look back for yourself..."
Tao Mingzhuo had a splitting headache, and then he Hearing Yang Kening suddenly let out a "hey" and said, "Wait a minute, wait a minute, no, no, no... he stood up!"
Tao Mingzhuo said helplessly: "Can you stop staring at other people's every move and wondering, You've finished your meal, why don't you want to leave?"
Yang Kening raised her voice and said, "He's coming towards you!"
Tao Mingzhuo suddenly stopped laughing.
He turned his face to the side in confusion and saw Jing Ci walking straight towards him holding a dinner plate.
In fact, after so many days, Tao Mingzhuo's psychological defense was already on the verge of collapse.
So the moment Jing Ci stood in front of him, Tao Mingzhuo even felt a trace of indescribable relief.
Tao Mingzhuo didn't know where to look. He could only pretend to be confused and subconsciously looked at the dinner plate in Jing Ci's hand.
Tom Yum Shrimp should be really delicious. Because Tao Mingzhuo discovered that Jing Ci only ate the shrimps on the plate and did not touch other dishes.
Then he heard Jing Ci ask: "Tao Mingzhuo, right?"
Tao Mingzhuo came back to his senses and responded.
"I've always wanted to find an opportunity to chat with you alone." Jing Ci smiled and said, "It's just that when I passed by your work station the first two times, I saw that you were quite busy, so I didn't bother you."
Sit down . Yang Kening, who was opposite, opened her mouth wide, and Xu Yi also showed a confused look.
This actually sounds wrong. Because from a boss's perspective, this behavior is a bit too considerate.
Tao Mingzhuo was also stunned for a moment, and explained: "Everyone has been busy designing skins for summer events recently, and the progress is a bit rushed, so..."
Jing Ci said "hmm" softly.
"Can I sit?" He pointed to the empty seat next to Tao Mingzhuo.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Kening immediately took the initiative to clear the food on the table. Tao Mingzhuo had never seen this girl show such fast hand speed outside of playing video games.
Jing Ci thanked him and sat down at the same time.
"Mr. Tao." He said to Tao Mingzhuo gently, "I have a request, I hope you can consider it."
In just ten seconds, Tao Mingzhuo recalled his working status in his mind. Again.
He had never blatantly touched fish at his work station, and the several theme skins he had participated in before were selling well. Tao Mingzhuo felt that he was open-minded and had nothing to feel guilty about.
So he calmed down and said calmly: "You said it."
Jing Ci looked into Tao Mingzhuo's eyes.
"Excuse me, around 12:30 noon tomorrow, would you like to have lunch alone with me?" Jing Ci asked.
Tao Mingzhuo: "...Huh?"
Tao Mingzhuo didn't react for a while: "Yes, it's okay."
Jing Ci exhaled softly.
However, he didn't seem to finish his words, as if he was hesitating for something. Tao Mingzhuo saw Jing Ci purse her lips and speak again.
Jing Ci said: "Actually, besides eating, I have another special request. Because it may offend you, I want to ask you what you think first."
Tao Mingzhuo rarely encounters such polite and polite words . A measured person, coupled with Jing Ci's gentle voice, makes people feel inexplicably comfortable.
Tao Mingzhuo was stunned for a moment: "You said it."
Jing Ci did not continue to speak. He stared at Tao Mingzhuo's face, blinked, and looked away.
This is the first time Tao Mingzhuo has sat so close to his new boss.
When Jing Ci first came to the company, several girls in the R&D department headed by Yang Kening were keen to discuss his appearance.
Tao Mingzhuo and Xu Yi would occasionally listen in and found that they were talking about "handsome face" and "nice waist" in the beginning, but later they gradually changed to "beauty" and "fei Feifei".
At that time, Tao Mingzhuo felt that his ears were about to bleed.
Now that the two of them were sitting face to face, Tao Mingzhuo, who made his living by designing characters, had to admit that Jing Ci did have a face that resembled a paper man.
It's one thing to have a good-looking face, but more importantly, such a gentle, clean, and neither impetuous nor impetuous temperament is really rare.
When an artist sees something beautiful, he always wants to record it, not to mention that what is in front of him is a rare, elegant, gentle and handsome boy in the three-dimensional world.
Jing Ci's lip shape is also very beautiful, but the lip color is a little light. I don't know if it is Tao Mingzhuo's imagination, but he feels that Jing Ci's complexion is not very good.
At the moment when Tao Mingzhuo was distracted, Jing Ci had already raised his eyes and looked into Tao Mingzhuo's eyes again.
He bent his eyes and gave an apologetic smile.
"Do you mind if I keep looking at your face while eating?" Jing Ci asked.
