48. I suddenly understood
I smiled brightly, "I would have thought you were complimenting me, and I would be proud." β
Xu Ran was a little annoyed and didn't want to talk to me more, so she took a business card and handed it to me, "You can call me if you think clearly." β
I returned the business card to Xu Ran, "I shouldn't need it, I'll return it to you." β
Xu Ran didn't want me to be so ignorant, and she was about to get angry at once, but her good upbringing made her still smile, "We'll meet again soon." β
"I'm looking forward to our next meeting. β
After Xu Ran left, I called out to the clerk to ask for a new cup of coffee, picked up the magazine and looked at it, unaffected by the episode just now.
"Miss Li is doing well. β
I turned my head abruptly and saw Bai Liangshi sitting behind me in a blue suit, he had a cup of coffee in his hand, he should have been in for a while, which means that he probably saw all the scenes just now.
I asked him, "Mr. Bai, is it interesting to watch the play?"
Bai Liangshi said with a smile, "I thought that if you were wronged, I could shine on the stage." I don't want you to refuse to give in and have the upper hand, which impresses me to see. β
I stared at him and said with certainty, "You're following me?"
Bai Liangshi waved his hand, "It's not tracking, it's protection." β
"I don't need Mr. Bai's protection, you must know who I am. β
Bai Liangshi said, "Of course I know, but does it have anything to do with my interest in you?"
I smiled and said, "Of course it is." A flower with an owner, can you still pick it at will? Even if you are interested, you should stay away, this is a truth that children understand, Mr. Bai doesn't understand?"
"It's not a famous flower that has a master, but a temporary relationship. β
Bai Liangshi corrected me.
"Not temporarily, but for the long term. I said firmly, "Thank you, Mr. Bai, for your love." β
Bai Liangshi laughed, "Don't be so arbitrary, I believe that it won't be long before you will be interested in me." β
I didn't want to say more, so I nodded and smiled at Bai Liangshi before leaving with my bag.
A few days later, I saw on the news that Xu Ran was walking around the mall with a middle-aged beautiful woman, and the two were talking and laughing, like a pair of intimate mother and daughter. Xu Ran was wearing a huge diamond ring between her index fingers, as if she was deliberately posing, and the diamond ring was very clear.
The middle-aged beauty is Chen Ziyan's stepmother, Soho. Her behavior has shown everyone that Xu Ran is the daughter-in-law approved by the Chen family, and I am just an impostor, just playing.
I read the whole story with great interest and keep it.
At eight o'clock, I arrived at Yiting on time, Chen Ziyan had not yet come, I washed some fruits, and waited for him while watching TV.
When Chen Ziyan came in, I had just finished eating the last strawberry and was wiping my hands. He washed his hands, threw his suit on the couch, and reached over my shoulder.
He had drunk alcohol, but it didn't smell bad. I looked sideways and saw a few long strands of hair on his shiny white shirt.
I pinched my hair and threw it in the trash can and patted him on the shoulder a few times, "Mr. Chen, it's not good to have black on such a white shirt." β
Chen Ziyan stared at me with a series of movements, pouting with an unfathomable smile, "Does Miss Li mind?"
"It's a woman who minds. β
Chen Ziyan leaned back on the sofa and stared at me funny, "I'm asking Miss Li, not women." β
I smiled and asked him, "What kind of answer would Mr. Chen want to hear?"
Chen Ziyan didn't answer me, and turned his gaze to the TV.
I leaned on Chen Ziyan's chest and restrained my smile, "Mr. Chen, let's not discuss this issue first, your fiancΓ©e came to me a few days ago, and we didn't have a pleasant chat." β
Chen Ziyan chuckled, as if he had already known, "Miss Li can really calm down, if I hadn't taken the initiative to ask you, wouldn't you have to say it, and you would have to endure it for a few days." β
"If I take the initiative to talk about this kind of thing, it will be like I am a victim, which is not good. I smiled slyly, "But she didn't take advantage of it, and she might have been annoyed by my ignorance." β
I found the news from my mobile phone and handed it to Chen Ziyan, "But Miss Xu is also very good, and she immediately returned me with a gift." β
He read the whole news and gave me back his phone, "That's a good return gift." However, Miss Li is so smart, she must have seen that there are more suspicions of showmanship. β
"I seem to understand what you mean. β
Chen Ziyan glanced at me and asked me what I understood?
I laughed and circled around his chest, "It's just that I can have nothing to fear." β
He laughed, grabbed my mischievous hand, fiddled with my fingers, and said, "Do whatever you want." β
The reason why I dared to talk to Xu Ran like that was that I was sure that Chen Ziyan didn't care about Xu Ran. In the car that day, he was very irritable in the face of Xu Ran's repeated phone calls. I also had a hint of disgust in his expression.
From this, I had a bold guess that he didn't like Xu Ran.
At night, I naturally stayed in Yiting, he worked harder than usual, and after the end I didn't even bother to take a shower, I went straight to sleep, and the only thing I remember was Chen Ziyan's chuckle echoing in my ears.
The next morning I was woken up by a ringtone, and I was stunned for a moment before I realized that it was my phone ringing. I sat up abruptly, scrambling to find my phone under the covers.
Suddenly, a pair of hands came from behind my back, and I quickly connected them before they rang for the third time. Jiang Ping asked me, "Mr. Li, why haven't you come to work yet, and there is a list waiting for you to sign." β
I rubbed my messy hair, looked at my watch and saw that it was already ten o'clock, and I hurriedly said, "There is something delayed, I will come in a while, you wait for me first." β
As I was talking, Chen Ziyan suddenly hugged me into his arms and tightened it. He had just finished taking a shower, his bathrobe was open, and his chest was still dripping, and I exclaimed, anxious to push him away, but he didn't let go, and the water stained my smooth shoulders, shiny.
