Rose hugged Xu Xincheng tightly as she continued to murmur, "I haven't seen you for such a long time. Steve， I really miss you.” ("It's been a long time since I've seen you.") Steve, I miss you so much. ”）

Her words were full of enthusiasm, and Xu Xincheng really felt the "enthusiasm" from Rose, her hug was no longer a hug between ordinary friends, but more like a hug between lovers after a long absence, which made him feel embarrassed and at a loss, he hurriedly settled down and responded as calmly as possible: "Hi, Rose, yes, it's been a while." ("Hi Rose, yes, it's been a while.") ”）

He tried to separate from Rose as he spoke, but Rose didn't want to be separated and still hugged him tightly.

In this way, this hug lasted for about ten seconds, Xu Xincheng noticed that the guests around him were looking at them, their "warm" hug was too eye-catching in this elegant and high-style occasion, and Rose was a blonde and blue-eyed beauty, which naturally attracted everyone's attention.

Today is Saturday, and Saturday night is the busiest time of the week at the Red Rose Cafe, most of the seats are full of customers, and there are at least 200 guests in the café with an area of nearly 4,000 square meters......

At this moment, Xu Xincheng suddenly felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling, and his heart was turbulent, and his heart tightened, thinking: "Could it be that I also ...... Rose?"

However, he immediately dismissed his own idea.

Why? There are two reasons for this.

First, being embraced by such a beautiful woman as Rose, as long as he is a normal man, he will feel excited, which is completely a normal reaction and does not mean anything; What's more, this second feeling is even stronger. If he really likes Rose, he will definitely ignore the opinions and eyes of others, the reason why he feels panicked is that he is afraid that there will be employees of New World Capital here, and if there is, then the warm embrace between him and a blonde and blue-eyed beauty will quickly spread and become a hot gossip headline.

Of course, Xu Xincheng didn't care to see if there were really people who knew him, he could only hope that his luck was not so bad, after all, it was past nine o'clock, and it was still Saturday night, and the vast majority of employees of New World Capital would not work overtime until now, and the few people who worked overtime, they were unlikely to come here to drink coffee at this time.

He quickly whispered to Rose, "Rose, let's sit down." ("Rose, let's sit down.") At the same time, he gently pushed Rose away with a slight force on both palms, and Rose should have seen the strange gaze of others, and felt that her actions were a little too much, so she reluctantly parted from him and slowly walked back to her seat.

Xu Xincheng took several deep breaths in a row, trying to restrain the panic in his heart and make the look on his face as normal as possible. Obviously, Rose was very emotional tonight, and the more this happened, the more he had to be calm, otherwise it would be easy for the situation to get out of hand.

After taking his seat, Xu Xincheng squeezed out a normal smile on his face, and asked with concern in the tone of a friend: "Rose, how have you been?" How is everything?” ("Rose, are you alright? everything is alright?")

Rose looked at him with a hint of loss in her eyes and a little sadness on her pretty face, she was stunned for a moment before she said, "I have been well. Everything is good. I like our company, I like the colleagues there, and I like the life here, I like Guangzhou, the food here is the best, and, I ......"("I'm fine. Everything was fine. I love our company, I love my colleagues there, I love life here, I love Guangzhou, the food is the best, and I ......"

As she spoke, a smile gradually appeared on Rose's originally sad face, and it became brighter and brighter, and it could be seen that she really liked everything here, but as she spoke, the expression on her face suddenly changed back to sadness, "But, I miss you. And you never had time to meet me.” ("But, I miss you.") And you never had time to see me. As she said the last sentence, Rose's tone was marked with frustration and resentment.

Xu Xincheng naturally saw and heard Rose's displeasure, but he could only say in a friend or even a colleague tone: "Well, Rose, I am so sorry, but you must know, our company is now at a critical time, and I am at a very special position, there are just so much work." waiting for me to do. I have been so busy that I really don’t have time to do anything else but work.” (Uh, Rose, I'm sorry, but you know, our company is at a critical juncture, and I'm in a very special position where there's so much work waiting for me to do.) I'm so busy that I don't really have time for anything other than work. ”）

The look on Rose's face calmed a little, and she whispered, "I know, and I understand. Leona has told me that you are now most likely the busiest man in the entire company. But......" ("I know, I can understand. Leona and I said that you're probably the busiest person in the company right now. But ......")

Leona is the English name of Senior Sister Li. The last time I met Rose was the day she officially joined the Hongfei AI Division, the next day, Xu Xincheng asked Senior Sister Li to take more care of her, after all, Rose is a young girl, unfamiliar with life in Guangzhou, and does not know Chinese, and will inevitably encounter a lot of trouble in work and life.

Sister Li is very good at English, and she is very good at taking care of people and being very sociable, so she is the best person to accompany and take care of Rose. Sure enough, in less than a month, Senior Sister Li and Rose became good friends, and they have the momentum to become good girlfriends. After work, Sister Li often takes Rose shopping, and also takes her to travel to scenic spots around Guangzhou on weekends.

Xu Xincheng never agreed to Rose's invitation to meet and chat, but he was not worried that Rose would be bored at all, and he was still very relieved to have Senior Sister Li here. Senior Sister Li introduced her to her good friends, her friends are very reliable, in the company, there are more people who want to make friends with her, in short, it is difficult for Rose to be bored.

He knew that Rose had a great crush on him and wanted to develop further with you, but he didn't have that in mind at all. Rose was indeed a great beauty, and she was so good, but he knew that no matter what, he would not have anything to do with her. If you know that there will be no results, and still associate with others, isn't that intentionally harming others?

As for why he concluded that nothing would come of it between the two, it was because he really didn't feel that way about Rose. Although he has been in English since elementary school, he has understood and studied Western culture and history since he was a child, but his aesthetics, his imagination of his future wife is still very oriental and Chinese, in his imagination, the image of his future wife is still very vague, but her hair and eyes are very clear, his future wife must have long black and beautiful hair, and must have a pair of dark and bright eyes.

In other words, no matter how beautiful Rose is, no matter how active she is, no matter how enthusiastic she is, it is useless, because the image of her and his future wife in his heart can never coincide, so he concluded that there will be nothing between the two, they can only be friends.

There's a reason why he hasn't agreed to Rose's invitation to meet and chat, and he believes that sooner or later Rose will shift his interest to someone else as long as he doesn't meet her. In the company, most of Sister Li's friends are outstanding young talents, and many of them admire Rose. According to Sister Li, Rose receives flowers almost every day, and almost every day someone wants to ask her out.

These days, Xu Xincheng thought that his strategy and response had worked, but what he never expected was that Rose not only did not take his interest away from him, but became even stronger.

Xu Xincheng suddenly felt a headache, and he thought to himself: "Rose is so smart, from his attitude and words, she must know what he thinks." But Rose is so persistent, but she only has a crush on him? Why is that?"

He shook his head slightly, took a deep breath, and thought, "What should I do next?"
