Listening to the waiter's words, Cheng Yueru looked at Mu Zichu with some surprise.

"That's right, I booked a box in advance. This shop is like this basically every day. Mu Zichu glanced at the full circle of guests.

Coincidentally, a waiter passed by with food, and Mr. Mu Zichu protected Cheng Yueru with his hand, "Let's go into the box and chat while eating." ”

The box is not big, but for two people, it is not small. The bottom of the pot and the dishes were all ordered by Mu Zichu by Cheng Yueru first, and the waiter's movements were very fast, and the table was already full of ingredients after a while.

The bottom of the classic mandarin duck pot was already steaming and about to tumble, Cheng Yueru couldn't suppress the anxiety of her taste buds, and her eyes kept falling on it.

The girl looked at the hot pot and subconsciously drooled her expression fell in the eyes of Mu Zichu opposite, only feeling really cute.

Cheng Yueru just washed her face when she came, and she didn't apply any makeup. The delicate and white face looks clean and complexion. The bun that is pulled up casually is lazy and casual, and it doesn't make people look messy and upset.

The more Mu Zichu looked at it, the more he couldn't restrain his liking in his heart.

"Okay, what does Miss Gu want to eat first?" The water boiled, and Mu Zichu spoke first.

"I'll just do it myself. "It's still a little embarrassing to have a hot pot appointment with a person who has only met a few times.

After all, hot pot is generally eaten together on behalf of a close relationship. This is the first time to eat hot pot with a stranger, Cheng Yueru is still a little uncomfortable. The hand holding the chopsticks was half-held and could not move.

As if seeing Cheng Yueru's embarrassment, Mu Zichu said with a smile while holding the chopsticks and putting the vegetables in the pot first: "Miss Gu doesn't need to feel restricted, and she doesn't have to feel inappropriate." It's good to let go of eating, I'm not so particular about it. Moreover, I just met Miss Gu to order, and the tastes of the two of us are very similar, aren't we?"

Cheng Yueru nodded with a faint smile.

When eating, Cheng Yueru noticed that Mu Zichu seemed to be the type of person who didn't say anything. But she remembered that in the morning, it seemed like the two of them were talking between meals.

Mu Zichu knew at this moment that Cheng Yue was thinking so hard, and he must have regretted the chopstick dish he had just picked up from the spicy pot. It's right that he eats spicy, but this time the bottom of the pot is spicy...... The reason why he didn't speak was because the chopsticks were so spicy, and the faint sweat on his forehead had already revealed his feelings at the moment.

I picked up the ice water at hand again and drank half a cup in one go, before it was relieved.

Looking at Cheng Yueru, the girl was moving her index finger and eating happily. To him, the spicy seems to be not worth mentioning in the girl's place.

Some people are happy eating hot pot, and some people are trying to act and hook people.

Imperial City, Lin Mengrui sat on the sofa, the mobile phone screen lit up in her hand, and she would glance at the time from time to time.

Today, Xu Yanliang let her rest at home for a day, and in order to perform well, she could only agree. It's just that today, Xu Yanliang didn't have a single phone call, was he too busy or didn't pay attention to it?

looked at the already dark sky outside the window, pressed Xu Yanliang's phone, and waited for a long time before the person over there could connect.

"Brother Yanliang, I'm so scared, can you come and accompany me?" Before Xu Yanliang could speak, Lin Mengrui's crying voice had already sounded.

Over there, Xu Yanliang was still working overtime in the office. The company has been intercepted by Gu's so many cooperations, and it is necessary to clean up these messes while strictly guarding against Gu's next move.

Listening to Lin Mengrui's voice on the phone, Xu Yanliang stopped what he was doing, put down the pen, raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows. Only then did I notice that it was already dark.

"Brother Yanliang, are you still working? Am I bothering you? I'm just, I'm just too scared. As soon as it gets dark, those ...... yesterday Those. I was just a little scared. Cautious to the later fear to incoherent, Lin Mengrui's interpretation is incisive.

"You stay by yourself for a while, and I'll go over and see you later. Xu Yanliang did not respond directly.

"Okay, Brother Yanliang, hurry up. Hearing that Xu Yanliang was coming, Lin Mengrui was already happy in his heart, and he didn't notice the detail in Xu Yanliang's words.

"Hmm. Hanging up the phone, Xu Yanliang looked at the sky outside that was gradually darkening, and the lights were already dim at night.

Thoughts drift to one place. In the villa, Cheng Yueru wore an apron, going back and forth between the kitchen and the dining room, and the girl's face was full of sunny smiles.

The dishes are ready and set on the table, the girl sits alone at the table, looking at the table full of food, looking at the direction of the door from time to time, and in a pair of apricot eyes, it is the expectation that her lover will return home.

But gradually, the second hand went round and round. The food on the table goes from hot to warm to completely cold. The girl's eyes and smile are the same, from anticipation to calmness.

The knock on the door pulled back Xu Yanliang's thoughts.

"Enter. The man's voice was still calm and cold, and there was no trace of sadness on his face.

The special assistant came in and reported: "President, the person has made an appointment, and the time is scheduled for tomorrow night." ”

"Okay, you can go back first. ”

Dealing with the work at hand to a node, Xu Yanliang took the briefcase and went directly to Lin Mengrui's apartment.

Standing on the balcony and seeing Xu Yanliang's car coming in, Lin Mengrui returned to the bedroom to make up some perfume. Go to the kitchen and bring the prepared meal to the table.

"Brother Yan Liang, you are finally here. When he opened the door, Lin Mengrui threw himself directly into Xu Yanliang's arms.

Xu Yanliang also had one hand in his trouser pocket, and he was a little stunned by Lin Mengrui's sudden movements. A few seconds later, Xu Yanliang raised his hand and gently patted Lin Mengrui's back, "Okay, let's go in first, I'm not here." ”

"Okay, oh, by the way, Brother Yanliang, are you very busy, am I causing you trouble?" Lin Mengrui's guilt was already on his face when he spoke.

"It's fine. Two words fell lightly. Without a trace, he was half a step away from Lin Mengrui, and Xu Yanliang had already taken the briefcase and went directly to the sofa in the living room.

He's really busy, and now he's coming here with work.

Feeling Xu Yanliang's alienation, Lin Mengrui stood aside and paused for a while, thinking that it was the reason why Xu Yanliang was too busy and tired.

stepped forward and thoughtfully prepared a cup of warm water for Xu Yanliang. "Brother Yanliang, you must not have eaten yet. Otherwise, let's get busy after eating. ”

"I'm ....... myself" and wanted to say something to make more effort, Xu Yanliang had already stood up and looked at her and said, "Let's go eat." ”

"Good. The joy that flashed on her face didn't make her say much.

In N City, Cheng Yueru and Mu Zichu finished eating hot pot, and Mu Zichu probably saw that Cheng Yueru was a little tired.

I wanted to propose to take her around the neighborhood and swallowed it back into my stomach, but said, "Miss Gu, are you working too much today, I think you seem to be a little tired." Would you like to go back to the hotel early to rest?"

"Good. Almost without thinking, Cheng Yueru immediately returned. Eat and drink enough, and sleepiness will strike. In addition, she didn't sleep all night, and she really can't hold it up until now.

After realizing that her words were a little inappropriate, Cheng Yueru looked at Mu Zichu and explained: "I do have a lot of work today, and I am full of wine and food at this time, and I really want to be lazy to sleep for a while." ”

"Then let's go back and make an appointment for a drink when we have time." ”

"Huh?" Cheng Yueru was stunned by Mu Zichu's words, when did they talk about drinking?

Thinking about it like this, Mu Zichu half-jokingly said, "Didn't Miss Gu just say that you were full of wine and food, we just had dinner today, but I forgot to ask Miss Gu to taste the wine here." ”

"Oh, hehe. Mr. Mu didn't have to pay too much attention to it, I just used a word in passing, and I didn't think too much about it. What made Mr. Mu misunderstand is that I am not strict enough in my words. ”

Cheng Yue was embarrassed at such a moment, it was just a word, and it was good to be to the same effect. Now that Mu Zichu said this, it seems that she is a cheeky woman who begs for wine.

"Miss Gu, don't mind, I'm just joking. ”

Cheng Yueru's inner OS: It's so cold.

The two returned to the hotel and each went back to their respective rooms. Cheng Yueru simply took a shower, and almost fell asleep the moment her head touched the pillow.

In Lin Mengrui's apartment, the two of them also ended dinner.

Xu Yanliang was already sitting on the sofa to deal with work, and Lin Mengrui took a shower in the bathroom. Coming out, a silk dressing gown was wrapped around his body.

The length that just covered the thighs, coupled with the deep V neckline that Lin Mengrui deliberately made, and the long half-wet hair scattered on the shoulders, was very sexy.

It's just that Xu Yanliang's eyes have been focused on the laptop screen, as if he didn't notice Lin Mengrui's appearance.

"Brother Yanliang, I made you a soothing tea, you can drink some. "Put the cup on the coffee table, half-bent posture, the scenery is great. It's a pity that Xu Yanliang still didn't raise his eyelids, but just let out a faint "um".

Lin Mengrui was not discouraged, sat on the sofa on the side, and casually took a pillow and hugged it in his arms. Bending the legs of the sitting, the bathrobe that was inadvertently lifted. Lin Mengrui performed various flower movements.

Until, I don't know how long it took, Lin Mengrui was already a little tired because of this action, and Xu Yanliang seemed to have just discovered her.

"Why don't you go to bed yet?" he looked at the time on his watch and urged, "It's late, let's go and rest." I'm here with you tonight. "It's just staying up late and working overtime and changing places.

In the end, Lin Mengrui returned to the bedroom with nothing.

The next day, Cheng Yueru woke up at more than eight o'clock.

"Hey, Assistant Gao, you'll come over in a moment. Getting up from the bed, Cheng Yueru first called the assistant.

Yesterday's day plus the night before yesterday's research, Cheng Yueru already had an idea in her heart.

When Assistant Gao came over, she helped her bring breakfast, quickly solved the breakfast with a few bites, and started working under the assistant's stunned eyes.

"Assistant Gao, Assistant Gao?" Cheng Yueru said as she spoke, she couldn't hear the assistant's echo, and couldn't help but look up. I saw Assistant Gao looking at the only remaining corner of the sandwich in her hand with a surprised expression.
