Chapter 286
Walking in, Norris put his luggage and went to the balcony.
Outside, there is lush green, which is especially rare in this snowy season.
He heard movement next door, turned his head, and found that the balcony between him and Kristine was very close, but only one meter away. She should have opened the balcony door too, so she could hear her walking.
For a moment, he was very satisfied with the birthday excuse he had just found.
Nowadays, everything is ready and only owes east wind. After changing his swimming trunks, Norris took a picture in the mirror.
Although it is indeed worse than Zheng Mingze, the fitness these days is still somewhat effective, at least he feels that his lines seem to have become tough.
He picked up his cell phone and sent a message to Moli Gu: “We are at the villa.”
She quickly replied to him: “Keep calm, wait until you find the opportunity, and work hard again, waiting for your good news!”
He said: “Okay. But I just looked in the mirror and felt that my vest line was not obvious enough.”
“Brother, you are not going to be a beauty pageant. Be confident, ok?” Moli Gu said: “Besides, you think she will stare at the bodies of the two of you, who has the more manly breasts?”
He replied: “Well, I am a little bit worried about gains and losses. Don’t worry, I will not back down.”
After speaking, he took a deep breath, put on the beach towel in the room, and walked out.
Most of the colleagues had changed their clothes, Norris swept around and saw Kristine was in the sofa area, so he settled down and walked towards her.
She raised her eyes, glanced at him, and then said: “Norris, you usually look at your style, you are in good shape!”
For a moment, he seemed to take a pill.
He sat down and humbled himself: “Fortunately, I actually like working out.”
Just after speaking, someone came over there, but it was Zheng Mingze.
He puts his beach towel on his right shoulder at random, so his left shoulder and most of his body are exposed, his shoulders are wide, and his muscles are strong. When he walked over, he was a little bit stubborn. If it weren’t for the face of an Oriental, I’m afraid he would be considered an American soldier.
“Wow, Zheng Ge is in good shape!” a colleague roared.
“Yeah, it’s bloody! It really is the benefits that Brother Zheng gave to his women!”
Norris turned his head instinctively to see Kristine’s reaction.
Sure enough, her eyes lit up a bit, and the corners of her lips rose to an arc.
Norris looked down at himself, his heart a little sore, but thinking of what Moli Gu had said, he straightened his waist suddenly.
“Are you all here?” Zheng Mingze said: “Go?”
Because of the large number of people in the team, naturally they cannot all gather in the same pool.
Soon, everyone dispersed in twos and threes, and Kristine chose a milk bath.
As soon as she entered, several colleagues passed by. Norris took a visual inspection, and he really had no place.
He had no choice but to go to a rose bath next to her.
Although it was soaking, his audiovisual was all placed three meters away from her.
This was the first time that everyone had a “candid meeting” event, so everyone got together excitedly to discuss body shape.
In particular, a man in the group is 170 tall and weighs 100 kg. He usually has a playful personality, so he became a joking target.
While chatting, Sheng Qing came over with a fruit plate at one end and said, “Brother Zheng, please eat everyone.”
With that said, give everyone a toothpick.
“Where is Zheng Brother?” someone asked.
“I saw it just now, I guess I’ll go…” The colleague pointed to another place before he finished speaking, “Come here.”
Norris saw that Zheng Mingze was walking towards Kristine’s pool with another plate in his hand.
As soon as he passed, a colleague got up and gave him his place, so Zheng Mingze went to Kristine’s side.
He passed the plate over: “Beauty, which one do you want to eat?”
Kristine smiled: “Raise it!”
Zheng Mingze rushed to the female colleagues around him and said: “If you don’t see it, if you want to become a beautiful woman, you must eat more grapes first.
After that, he took a toothpick and gave several grapes to Kristine.
Everyone suddenly laughed.
Someone joked: “Brother Zheng, there are so many of us, so just ask Kristine what she eats. As expected, she is treated differently from us!”
Kristine could not help but feel a bit hot when she heard the off-string sound.
This feeling is very subtle. In the past, she didn’t like being ridiculed by people, but now, there is a faint sense of sweetness.
She is not stupid, she understands what the signal is. Moreover, from the time Zheng Mingze took care of her when she was ill, her mind began to be placed on him involuntarily.
Hearing the face of the man who was being teased beside him was not red and his heart beat, he said to everyone: “It must be different, our family Kristine is my sister!”
“Sister?” Someone deliberately prolonged the following words, which was ambiguous and meaningful.
However, Kristine fell into deep thought because of his two words.
‘Our family Kristine’ and’pro sister’ may sound ambiguous to others, but she knows that Zheng Mingze liked Huo Jingran before, so what Zheng Mingze expressed might really regard her as a younger sister. meaning.
Her heart has become a little ups and downs, this feeling is still a long time ago, it is difficult to control, very unaccustomed.
And she has never liked the feeling of guessing like this, always feel that if he likes her, then everyone is happy; if he doesn’t like her, then she should cut the mess quickly and clean up such emotions, so as not to affect the future getting along in the same office.
So, Kristine didn’t listen to any jokes that everyone was making. She finally found a gap after having dinner at noon, and she could say something to Zheng Mingze alone.
“Brother Zheng, what are the arrangements for a while?” she asked.
“Free activities in the afternoon, and a buffet banquet in the evening, in the tropical woods behind today’s bath.” Zheng Mingze said, jokingly: “Don’t worry, there is no arrangement tomorrow morning. Everyone will sleep until they wake up naturally and then go back.”
She nodded: “Okay.”
After speaking, he added: “At night, I have something to ask you.”
Zheng Mingze said: “You can ask now, it’s okay anyway, is it work?”
Kristine shook his head: “Let’s go back and rest now.” What she thought was that, after all, such a question was asked for the first time in her life. It’s a drink, and I forgot everything the next day, not embarrassing.
“Oh, good.” Zheng Mingze nodded: “Go to sleep, there will be games at night, so you can cultivate your energy.”
Kristine nodded and turned around, but saw that Norris had arrived behind them at some point, his expression was a bit complicated, and he stopped talking.
But she didn’t care too much, so she nodded at him and went straight to the direction of the room.
Norris retracted the gaze that fell on Kristine, but his heart made waves.
What does she have to say to Zheng Mingze at night? Reminiscent of the way Kristine looked at Zheng Mingze today, he couldn’t help but have a bad feeling in his heart.
The time in the afternoon suddenly became arduous and long, and it finally lasted until the evening.
The banquet is indeed in the woods, the light is a little dark, in order to create the atmosphere, each table is lit by candles.
Everyone is busy at work on weekdays, so it is rare to relax today, and they are more relaxed.
This is the first time Kristine drank for the sake of drinking. She drank three consecutive cups of Long Island Love. Although it was a cocktail, this one had more stamina. When she realized it, she was already half drunk.
Her head was a little dizzy, but her mind was so clear that she knew exactly what she was going to do.
So she took another sip of brandy, then took a deep breath and helped the table to get up.
She had already watched it just now. Zheng Mingze went to the bathroom and is expected to be back soon. Therefore, she tried to maintain her balance and walked on the only way to return.
There were tall palm trees all around, and she leaned on a tree trunk and waited quietly.
Not long after, he really came.
Her heart raised her throat, but her dizzy brain was calm for a moment.
Perhaps, in order not to embarrass herself, she can take a roundabout way-ask him if he still likes Huo Jingran, he should understand.
On the other table, Norris had actually been paying attention to Kristine’s movements. As soon as she left, he immediately became vigilant. When Zheng Mingze was not there, he immediately sounded the alarm.
At the end of the street lamp, Zheng Mingze strode forward, his cheeks shuttled between the shadows of the surrounding trees, sometimes blurred and sometimes clear.
It was not until he walked to Kristine’s side that he discovered her in the shadows, and was quite surprised: “Kristine, why are you here?”
The strings on her body suddenly tightened, she stood up straight, her eyes brightened instantly: “Brother Zheng, I have something to tell you.”
Her voice is extremely calm, but only she herself knows that her spirit of drinking is about to erode to the last territory in her brain.
“Well, what’s the matter?” Zheng Mingze said.
“I just wanted to ask you, you–”
Kristine had just said this, and suddenly she was covered by a hand in the darkness.
Then, a familiar voice came from beside him, but in an unfamiliar tone: “You are not allowed to say!”
Kristine was startled, turned her head, and met Norris’s sharp eyes.
His eyes were very sharp at the moment, and his tone couldn’t hold his beak, he had never seen him before.
“I have a business, what are you doing–” She pushed away his hand covering her lips irritably, feeling that the courage she had so easily gathered was about to fall short.
However, he answered her with a jerk, and then, her body slammed into his chest, and his lips were suddenly covered with softness.
Norris had no experience at all. This change was completely caught off guard. His carefully prepared confession was too late to say, and he found that he had k!ssed Kristine.
She was obviously confused too. After letting him k!ss for more than ten seconds, she reacted and pushed him away hard, “Norris, what are you doing?”
While speaking, Zheng Mingze already smiled, gave Norris a thumbs up, and then walked away unhurriedly.
“Are you crazy?!” Kristine was shaking with anger.
“No, I’m very clear.” Seeing Kristine still watching Zheng Mingze’s departure, Norris felt that his thoughts were overwhelmed. He was jealous and angry, almost shouting: “Because I like you! Even if I go crazy, it is because I like you. !”
