Chapter 15: I Didn't Say I Was Going to Send You
In the restaurant, Yan Xiaoyu sat opposite Lu Jingnian seriously.
It's one of the best French restaurants in the city, with a low-key yet luxurious setting and elegant violin sounds. You should relax and rest when you come here, but Yan Xiaoyu kept staring at Lu Jingnian, and her expression was extremely serious.
"Look at what I'm doing, eat quickly. Lu Jingnian picked up a piece of foie gras and put it in his mouth as he spoke.
"Hey, no appetite. Yan Xiaoyu looked at the delicate dishes in front of him, without a trace of desire to move his mouth.
Last time at the door of the company, because of Mu Tingchen, Yan Xiaoyu and Lu Jingnian left in a hurry without saying a few words. Finally, the two of them made an appointment to have a good meal today, but Yan Xiaoyu had no appetite at all.
"Little fish, I've noticed that you've been a little strange lately. Lu Jingnian put down the fork in his hand, "Didn't you come back from abroad to work? With your qualifications, you shouldn't be tired from work, right?"
Yan Xiaoyu raised his head, blinked innocently, and said hesitantly: "Hmm...... It's really not tiring......"
"And that day, why did you leave in such a hurry?
"No, no...... I'm so smart, who would dare to bully me?"
"Is that trapped by love?" Lu Jingnian suddenly laughed evilly.
Yan Xiaoyu's eyes widened suddenly, "What nonsense, no, no, eat your meal." ”
"Do you think I'm a fool? I don't understand what you have to do with that Mu Tingchen now, and I've heard a little about it before. Lu Jingnian picked up the tissue next to him and wiped his mouth.
Yan Xiaoyu lowered his head and put his chin on his hand, "Actually, there is nothing to ...... And some things are a long story......"
Lu Jingnian suddenly stretched out his hand and patted Yan Xiaoyu's head, "Xiaoyu, I don't think the past is worth nostalgia." In fact, you don't realize that the right person for you has never walked through. ”
Looking at his suddenly serious expression, Yan Xiaoyu sat up straight all of a sudden, and she said with a straight face: "Hey, do you want to coax me to help you dump the little girl again?"
I still remember that in the past, as long as this guy even coaxed and said something nice, and then gave some small gifts, he must have been dragged to help him clean up the mess......
"Poof, hahahaha......" Lu Jingnian laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" Yan Xiaoyu glared at him dissatisfied.
"It's nothing, it's nothing, I didn't ask you to help me, I just persuaded you. Lu Jingnian looked at her gently, his eyes full of doting.
"Hungry, hungry, eat!" Yan Xiaoyu avoided his gaze, picked up the knife and fork and began to eat quickly.
In fact, Yan Xiaoyu knew in her heart that Lu Jingnian had feelings for her. But from beginning to end, she only regarded Lu Jingnian as a good buddy, if anyone bullied him, Yan Xiaoyu would definitely be the first to rush up to help him.
Including pretending to be his girlfriend to help him get rid of those clingy little girls, Yan Xiaoyu looked very reluctant to do these things on the surface, but in fact, she understood that those little girls didn't really love him, so she took the trouble to help him every time.
But this relationship is not the same as love. Whenever Lu Jingnian mentioned these things half-jokingly and half-seriously, Yan Xiaoyu always found an excuse to avoid such topics.
What she is most afraid of is that Lu Jingnian will have an unpleasant quarrel with her because of these things, and her good friends will become passers-by because of this.
But what Yan Xiaoyu didn't know was that Lu Jingnian didn't think like this. It's just that the only difference is that Lu Jingnian likes her more than she imagined, as long as Yan Xiaoyu wants it, no matter what it is, he will help her find it.
Recently, Mushi has been preparing for the annual meeting, and every department has been busy. Yan Xiaoyu wanders between the design department and the copywriting department every day, one person plays two roles, and he is half dead tired. Every time I get home, I fall asleep.
Mu Tingchen also noticed that this little woman seemed to be a little too tired recently, and his heart suddenly felt a little distressed. But after thinking about it, why did he feel sorry for her? When he thought of the previous "gold masters", Mu Tingchen was angry and didn't fight anywhere.
So, when he saw Yan Xiaoyu who was sweating profusely again, he felt very calm, anyway, you provoked me, and it would be good for you to be tired.
The mobile phone rang suddenly, it was Lin Wan, and Mu Tingchen picked up the phone.
"Late?"
"Tingchen, are you free today? I want you to go shopping with me and buy a dress for the annual meeting, let me tell you, I see a very beautiful ......."
"I'm sorry for the lateness, but the preparations for the annual meeting are complicated, and I'm very busy. You can buy whichever set you like. Without waiting for Lin Wan to finish speaking, Mu Tingchen bluntly rejected her invitation.
"Oh...... All right...... Are you busy......" Lin Wan hung up the phone in frustration.
Standing at the door of the dress store, Lin Wan watched one little couple after another pass by her, she really didn't have the courage to step into the store.
Today at the Mu family, Mrs. Mu also asked herself to call Mu Tingchen, saying that she wanted to choose a dress, and it was best for two people to go together and dress it well, so that at the annual meeting, it would be good to release the news that the two were about to get engaged.
Before calling, Lin Wan had already thought that it might end like this, but she still wanted to give it a try. In this way, she chose a time to get off work and called, but she was still refused.
Tingchen, do you hate me so much...... Lin Wan sighed, and looked through the glass window, the dress on the model was really good-looking...... But......
She stood outside the glass and stared, but eventually shook her head and left disappointed.
Mu Tingchen, who hung up the phone, suddenly frowned, looking at Yan Xiaoyu running around outside the office, he picked up his mobile phone and looked at the time, and then called the secretary to the office.
After a while, the secretary came out, she raised the folder in her hand, and said to everyone: "Everyone has worked hard, notify all departments, get off work now!
Hearing the end of the day, there was a burst of cheers in the office. Yan Xiaoyu also put down a lot of work in his hand and took a breath.
Colleagues are leaving one after another. Just as Yan Xiaoyu was about to leave, Mu Tingchen suddenly called out to her.
"You, wait a minute. Come with me. His tone was unmistakable.
Hah? I heard you right? This dead tsundere actually wants me to go with him today? Is it because I am wasting money by taking a taxi? Yan Xiaoyu's eyes widened, and he almost dropped his eyeballs.
She looked at Mu Tingchen who came out of the office suspiciously, and asked, "You...... Something?"
"Nope. You hurry up. The latter replied crisply, and then walked out the door with his feet raised.
Yan Xiaoyu's tone was wrong when he heard this...... Something big was about to happen, so she immediately picked up her bag and ran in the direction of Mu Tingchen.
Mu Tingchen was driving in the wrong direction, not the way home. Do you want to go to dinner together? Yan Xiaoyu turned his head to look at Mu Tingchen, and when he saw that he looked indifferent, he turned his head back stupidly.
"On this road, they all sell dresses. Say which one you think looks good. Mu Tingchen suddenly slowed down the car, turned his head and said to Yan Xiaoyu.
"Hmm, dress, what do I want that thing for......"
"If you want to wear your chunky woolen jacket and black fleece leggings and flats to the annual meeting, then I don't have any problem with that. ”
Burst...... So this guy wanted to buy me a dress? I thought he was going to take me on a top-secret mission......
Yan Xiaoyu's face showed a smug expression, Mu Tingchen glanced at it with his spare eyes, he rolled his eyes helplessly, "Do you want to watch it?"
"Ah...... Yes, yes, yes! How could it not be!" Yan Xiaoyu looked out excitedly, and through the car window, exquisite dresses were worn on the model, making her dizzy.
"Eh, this, this is very good-looking!" Yan Xiaoyu pointed out the window, his eyes full of anticipation.
Mu Tingchen stopped the car and looked in the direction of her finger, "Well, okay." That's it. With that, he unbuckled his seatbelt, got out of the car and walked straight to the store.
Yan Xiaoyu followed behind him, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and his face was full of joy.
As soon as he entered the door, Mu Tingchen pointed to Yan Xiaoyu behind him and said to the waiter: "The yellow one at the door, find one that suits her and wrap it up." ”
"What? just bought it?" Yan Xiaoyu asked in surprise.
"I don't have the time to give you a try. Mu Tingchen directly poured a basin of cold water down.
Yan Xiaoyu pursed his lips, and the excitement just now was gone. I thought I could try a few more sets to amaze Mu Tingchen, but I didn't expect that before my hand touched the dress, the person was leaving.
On the way home after buying the dress, Yan Xiaoyu kept puffing up. She had just imagined that after the curtain was opened, she would gracefully turn around in front of Mu Tingchen, and then enjoy his amazed gaze......
It's a pity that this opportunity was strangled in the cradle by Mu Tingchen before it began to sprout. Yan Xiaoyu looked at Mu Tingchen, who was as calm as a stave all the way, and felt that he was wronged.
But after thinking about it, he still thought about himself, after all, he was indeed a poor girl without a dress. So, she whispered to Mu Tingchen, who was driving: "Thank you!"
"No, I don't. The dress money will be deducted from your salary. Yan Xiaoyu's gratitude didn't last for two seconds, and Mu Tingchen poured another basin of cold water on her.
Damn! I finally thought about not being angry and thanked him, but I didn't expect this guy to be quite fine...... This must have tens of thousands, right? This means that two months' salary has been ruined.
"But you took me to buy this dress, didn't you give it to me?" Yan Xiaoyu asked unwillingly.
Mu Tingchen looked indifferent, "I took you to buy it, and I didn't say I wanted to give it to you." ”
…… Okay, you are Mu Tingchen, you are ruthless! Yan Xiaoyu pouted his mouth high, turned his head, and ignored Mu Tingchen.
