After chatting for a while, they drank the wine from their glasses and asked the waiter to prepare the pasta for them.

Soon, a waitress brought the steaming noodles and smiled and asked the customer to slow down.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and then lowered their heads and ate the delicious noodles.

It didn't take long for Jiang Yinni and Liu Xiangyu to leave the paidang shop and walk slowly along the street leading to the company, talking and laughing, looking relaxed and happy.

A few minutes later, they came to the front of a shopping mall, and although it was noon, there were still quite a lot of customers inside, and it seemed very lively.

Jiang Yinni is a girl after all, and she has an almost natural interest in shopping malls, so she can't help but cast her eyes on shopping malls.

When Liu Xiangyu saw it, he asked, "Jiang Yinni, looking at you like this, do you want to go in and have a look?" ”

"As far as I know, most boys don't like to accompany girls to the mall because they are troublesome, and of course some people are afraid of spending money."

Jiang Yinni said with a smile, "That's right, I don't want to embarrass you, this mall won't go to the mall, let's go back to the company to take a break." ”

"When you say that, it seems that I am reluctant to accompany you to the mall, and I am even suspected of being stingy."

Liu Xiangyu smiled and said, "Okay, in order to show my sincerity, I decided to accompany you to the mall, and I will also give you a gift you like, which can be regarded as a gift exchange." ”

"If I invite you to dinner, you will give me a gift, and if I don't invite you to dinner, will you still give me a gift?"

Jiang Yinni stared at the handsome guy and asked, "You like trading, right?" ”

"You misunderstood me, I didn't mean what you said."

Liu Xiangyu hurriedly explained, "I mean I have the opportunity to accompany you to the mall, so that you can pick a favorite gift for you." ”

"You think that, it means that you don't know very well, especially how I feel about you."

Jiang Yinni said seriously, "Let's put it this way, Liu Xiangyu, as long as you send it, no matter what it is, I will like it, so you don't need to let me pick it myself." ”

"Oh, that's right, then I really didn't expect that."

Liu Xiangyu said suddenly, "However, I think it's up to you to choose the best, so that you are satisfied, and I am also happy." ”

"Are you really going to give me a gift?"

Jiang Yinni stared at Liu Xiangyu and asked with a smile.

"Of course."

Liu Xiangyu replied solemnly, "You should know that I am a man of all my word, especially in front of you, you should not doubt my sincerity." ”

"Who doubts your sincerity, I'm just asking, don't mind."

Jiang Yinni grinned and said, "However, I know your sincerity from this, and I am very happy." ”

"In that case, let's go."

Liu Xiangyu smiled happily and urged.

"Forget it, I suddenly don't want to go into the mall, you see it's crowded, I don't like this kind of lively place."

Jiang Yinni pondered for a while, and said half-truthfully.

"Is this hilarious?"

Liu Xiangyu glanced into the mall and said, "I know you don't like to be lively, but it's not so much that you can't even bear this level of excitement." ”

"It stands to reason that it should be like you said, but somehow, at this point, I just don't want to go to the mall."

Jiang Yinni frowned slightly and said, "Forget it, let's go." ”

"Jiang Yinni, you don't want to accept my gift, right?"

Liu Xiangyu asked.

"It doesn't seem to have anything to do with gifts."

Jiang Yinni smiled coveredly, "Liu Xiangyu, you also know that I am more emotional, and I will suddenly change my mind." ”

"I know that, but I still hope that you don't change your mind now and accept my gift."

Liu Xiangyu said solemnly, "Let's go, Jiang Yinni." ”

"I appreciate your kindness, please don't force me to do what I don't like to do, okay?"

Jiang Yinni insisted, "If you must give me a gift, then next time." ”

"You really don't want to go to the mall?"

Liu Xiangyu asked knowingly, his expression a little disappointed.

"I'm sorry, I'd like to go back to the office right away and rest for a while."

Jiang Yinni said apologetically.

"Okay, since you really don't want to go, then I'm embarrassed to force you anymore."

Liu Xiangyu thought about it for a while, and said with a smile, "Okay, Jiang Yinni, we'll go back to the company now." ”

Jiang Yinni didn't say anything, only raised her beautiful white and red face, smiled at the handsome guy next to her, and then walked side by side along the street with him, continuing to walk forward.

In fact, at this time, she really wanted him to accompany her to the mall and wanted to get his gift, but he remembered the words at the dinner table just now, and knew that he had fallen in love with Han Xiaowan, and felt that there was no point in accepting his gift again.

How could he fall in love with her?

At this moment, she kept asking herself in her heart, feeling surprised and confused.

However, it was true, and since he had said it in person, she had no doubt about it.

Since I obviously like him, why didn't I confess to him earlier?

After a while, she reproached herself in her heart, thinking that if she had confessed her love to him when she first met, the result would definitely not be like this.

At this moment, she was extremely annoyed in her heart, complaining that she was not active in her relationship at all, and always passively waited for others to woo her, so that she missed the love she wanted.

Damn, damn it!

Thinking of this, she felt a knife-like pain in her heart, and the pain could not be described in words.

Also, seeing the handsome guy you love fall in love with another girl, how can there be no reason not to be painful.

However, now that the matter has come to this, what can she do, except for pain and remorse, there is only a long sigh of sorrow.

Seriously, she didn't want to sigh in front of Liu Xiangyu, but at the end, she couldn't help but sigh softly and smile bitterly.

Liu Xiangyu is a very attentive person, he heard Jiang Yinni's sigh, and asked, "Hey, why don't you look happy, why are you bothered?" ”

"No, no."

Jiang Yinni said a little hesitantly, "I ...... I'm fine. ”

"What is very good, as soon as I look at your expression, I will understand everything."

Liu Xiangyu stared at Jiang Yinni's eyes and said seriously, "You are lying, but your eyes are not deceiving me." Jiang Yinni, we are friends, don't you think it's wrong to do this? ”

Not true!

Friends should be as transparent as glass, and there should be no concealment.

This is what Jiang Yinni once said to Liu Xiangyu, it stands to reason that she should do what she says, open her heart to him, and tell what is hidden in her heart.

However, she knew that the result of doing so would only lead to embarrassment and embarrassment to each other, and would only add to her pain, and would have no effect on the development and destiny of the relationship.

In that case, why should we say this, so that we can't even be friends with each other?

Because of this, she decided to betray herself once, and lied very rarely: "I'm not lying, it's you who are nervous, there's nothing wrong with me." ”

"Seeing your eyes twinkle like this, I knew you were lying to me, but I didn't understand why you were doing this."

Liu Xiangyu affirmed, "Can you tell me?" ”

"What do you want me to tell you?"

Jiang Yinni smiled coldly and said, "Liu Xiangyu, do you know that you like to be self-righteous?" Okay, don't guess. ”

"Self-righteous?"

Liu Xiangyu argued, "It's not that I'm self-righteous, it's you who are hiding the truth of the matter from me." Even if you don't admit it, it's true, there's no doubt about it. ”

"You are so stubborn, no matter how I explain it, you will not believe it."

Jiang Yinni's heart sank, and she pretended to be helpless and said, "Forget it, I don't want to explain to you anymore." ”

"It's not that I'm stubborn, it's that you won't tell me the truth."

Liu Xiangyu said with a little annoyance, and then said with a wry smile, "Okay, since you can't trust me, then forget it." ”

"It's not that I can't trust you, it's because ......"

Jiang Yinni wanted to speak and stopped, was silent for a few seconds, and then forced a smile and said, "Actually, there is nothing to say, you will understand." ”

"Maybe, but sometimes I'd rather not understand, it's better for you and me."

Liu Xiangyu suddenly realized something, so he said with a little sadness, "No matter what, Jiang Yinni, I hope we can become best friends, and lifelong friends." ”

"I want it too."

Jiang Yinni replied sadly, "It's just that the world is unpredictable." ”

"Don't be so pessimistic, as long as you want to be friends for a lifetime, I will definitely be able to do it. The world is unpredictable, but if you don't change your mind, that's it. ”

Liu Xiangyu said to Jiang Yinni with a smile.

"That's right."

A slight smile appeared on Jiang Yinni's face, she was silent for a moment, then changed the topic again, and asked, "Liu Xiangyu, you are going back for the Spring Festival soon, are you ready?" ”

"Don't worry, I've already bought the ticket, and we'll take the bus back together then."

Liu Xiangyu replied, "Yes, time flies so fast, and in a blink of an eye, it's time for the New Year again." ”

"Time is like an arrow, the sun and the moon shuttle, so we have to cherish the good time of youth."

Jiang Yinni sighed, "Thirty years later, we are all old and wrinkled. ”

"Because of this, we have to work hard, work hard, and do a good job, so as not to achieve nothing when we get it, and the boss will be sad."

Liu Xiangyu replied solemnly.

"I know that you have great ambitions, ability, and willingness to work hard, and you will definitely be able to do something vigorous and great at that time."

Jiang Yinni smiled, "As for me, I don't have this ambition, I just want to spend this life in plain and plain life, so even if I don't achieve anything at that time, I won't have any sadness." Really, I'm a bland man. ”

"According to my character, I should criticize you fiercely first, and then encourage you well, so that you can fight for your ideals and career with passion."

Liu Xiangyu said, "However, I also know that people have their own ambitions, and there is no need to be reluctant, so it's not good to say anything about you." ”

"Aren't you disappointed?"

Jiang Yinni smiled and asked briskly.

"If you say not to be disappointed, it would be a lie to you, but I can understand you."

Liu Xiangyu said.

"I'm glad you understand me, really."

Jiang Yinni replied, "Everyone has their own ambitions, this sentence is too good." I'll tell you, my ambition is to find someone I love to marry. ”

"Well, this ambition is good, she will make you have love and happiness."

Liu Xiangyu said sincerely, "Jiang Yinni, I wish you sweet love and a happy life. ”

"Thank you!"

Jiang Yinni smiled sweetly, "I also bless you with this sentence." ”

"Thank you!"

Liu Xiangyu replied, "However, I hope that you will wish me success in my career." ”

"I know men value careers more, but wouldn't it be better if they were successful in love and career?"

Jiang Yinni said, "So, I wish you a good harvest in love and career." ”

"When you say that, I'm very satisfied."

Liu Xiangyu smiled happily, "Actually, I also very much hope that you can be like this, so you work hard while looking for love." ”

"Do your best and try not to let you down."

Jiang Yinni thought about it and replied solemnly.

As they spoke, the two of them came to the gate of the company.

Since there was still some time before work, there was no one inside, and it seemed quite quiet.

Liu Xiangyu saw that the door automatically moved open, so he stepped in.

Then, Jiang Yinni also walked in, and walked unhurriedly along the clean-cleaned cement road with Liu Xiangyu in the direction of the hall.

After a while, they entered the elevator and followed the elevator upward.

Soon, the elevator stopped, Jiang Yinni suddenly had a feeling of reluctance in her heart, stared at Liu Xiangyu for a while, and then raised her hand to say goodbye to him, and stepped out of the elevator in one step.

When she looked back at the elevator, the two silver-gray doors had slowly closed, blocking the view to her beloved man.

A strong urge surged out of her heart, and her eyes couldn't help but moisten.

Back in his office, Liu Xiangyu made a cup of tea, then sat down on the swivel chair, sipping slowly while blowing hot air, while thinking about his own business.

However, he didn't think about work, but thought about Jiang Yinni's feelings for him.

Although Jiang Yinni had never confessed anything to him, he knew very well in his heart that she had been secretly in love with him.

How could this girl have such thoughts about me?

To be honest, he hadn't thought of that at all, so he's still in that state of disbelief.

However, what made him glad was that he told his feelings for Han Xiaowan, so that she could change her mind and prevent each other from falling into emotional struggle and pain.

But he also knew that Jiang Yinni would definitely feel sad about it in her heart until she figured it out.

He was drinking tea like this, thinking about his own affairs, and his seemingly calm expression revealed a little sadness, which was not only uncomfortable for Jiang Yinni, but also worried about his relationship with Han Xiaowan.

Although he has decided to love Han Xiaowan well, he can't be sure that he can truly and persistently love her, after all, this love is more about responsibility and compensation for her.

Thinking of this, he felt a wave of frustration and sadness in his heart, and sighed heavily.

As if to shake off the worries that were wrapped around his mind, he shook his head suddenly, smiled bitterly, and then leaned back in his chair, as if in deep thought, as if he was thinking nothing.
