Chapter 478: Too much control
Seeing that Li Zi'an ate about the same, Shangguan Wanbai didn't want to stay outside longer, and now he just wanted to go home and go back to his room to stay alone for a while.
"Are you going home? I'll send you. Li Zi'an also stood up from his position, took his blazer and put it on.
"No, I'll just go back myself." Shangguan Wanbai shook his head and refused.
Li Zi'an stood in front of her and said with a smile: "A gentleman has the obligation to send the lady home." ”
"I'm not a lady." Shangguan Wanbai glanced at him speechlessly, and then walked out of the restaurant on his own.
But soon Li Zi'an caught up again, and without saying a word, he took her hand and walked towards his car.
"I'll send you home, you're so good-looking, what if someone kidnaps you? Besides, the passenger seat of my car is only for you. ”
Li Zi'an domineering but gentle took Shangguan Wanbai into the car, and then drove to Shangguan's house.
When waiting for the traffic light on the road, Shangguan Wanbai couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you busy?" So free, he circles around me every day. ”
"Busy, but work is not as important as you, if you think I don't spend enough time with you, I can push the work around you twenty-four hours a day."
Li Zi'an looked at her white cheeks and red and soft lips, and the restlessness in her heart rose again.
He longed for the person in front of him all the time, and he wanted to dismantle her and eat her, but he held back, because he knew that Shangguan Wanbai would be angry.
The last time she kissed her at the villa, she was very angry at the time, and if she kissed again now, maybe she would go back and block all her contact information.
Li Zi'an touched his thin lips, and could only quench his thirst by reminiscing about the kiss last time.
After sending Shangguan Wanbai home safely, Li Zi'an left without too much entanglement, because he knew that he had to take it step by step, and if he was too tightly entangled at once, Shangguan Wanbai would only push him out.
At this time, in a spacious and elegant office, Jian Maoxun was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and talking on the phone.
"How did you get that picture? The people in the photo are Wan Bai and Li Zi'an? His voice was as low as a deep spring.
The calm tone was slightly cold, and there was a hint of anger mixed with it.
"Wanbai and I made an appointment to eat together at a restaurant today, and then after Wanbai answered the phone, Li Zi'an came to take her away after a while."
Lin Man said as he took out a pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet and changed them into.
Not long after Li Zi'an left with Shangguan Wanbai just now, she also left the restaurant and returned to the apartment where she lived.
"And what do you mean by taking that picture and sending it to me?" Jian Maoxun's voice was even colder.
Since he found out that Lin Man had crossed the line at the bar last time, he had treated Lin Man with a polite and distant attitude, more distancing than before.
"Because I want you to see Shangguan Wanbai's true face!" Lin Man frowned and raised his voice, "When she was dating you, she also kept in touch with Li Zi'an. ”
"Lin Man, even if Wanbai has done something sorry for me, it is also a matter between me and her, are you too much in charge? Between friends, you shouldn't care so much. ”
Jian Maoxun's tone was a little unhappy, and he was clearly warning Lin Man not to interfere in the matter between him and Shangguan Wanbai.
"But...... Maoxun, I don't want to be ordinary friends with you, don't you really know my mind?! Lin Man's face was a little sad, but at the same time very affectionate.
Hearing this, Jian Maoxun was silent for a moment.
For this sudden confession, there was no trace of turmoil in his heart at all, his feelings for Lin Man were just ordinary friends, and there was no love between men and women.
Otherwise, they have known each other for so many years, Lin Man is such a beautiful and talented woman, if he had that meaning, they would have been together a long time ago.
"I'm sorry, Linman, I can't accept your wishes." Jian Maoxun sighed.
He suddenly felt a little headache, and raised his hand to rub his furrowed brows.
If Lin Man didn't say it, they would still be able to communicate and be confidants and friends as before, but Lin Man has now pierced this layer of window paper, and he can only slowly alienate Lin Man in the future.
As early as when he was in France, Jian Maoxun vaguely sensed that something was wrong, but he didn't think much about it at the time.
It's not that he is sluggish, but Lin Man hid very deeply before, and almost didn't reveal his feelings for Jian Maoxun.
Later, it was because Shangguan Wanbai appeared that Lin Man panicked.
Because for so many years, Jian Maoxun has never had a woman who is together, he is clean and self-conscious, and he does not easily let women get close to him.
When Jian Maoxun took Shangguan Wanbai to formally introduce her, she knew that Jian Maoxun was really tempted.
"Why? Is there anything I can't compare to Shangguan Wanbai? Lin Man's eyes slowly reddened, and a strong pain struck.
"In my eyes, Wanbai is the best woman in the world, and no one can compare to her." Jian Maoxun frowned and replied coldly.
Lin Man smiled sarcastically and asked, "Even if she still has a relationship with Li Zi'an, you don't mind?" Your love is great, Maoxun, but why can't you give me a little charity? ”
Yes, almsgiving.
She was like a person who had walked in the desert for a long time, Jian Maoxun was the only oasis in her wilderness, and she only begged him to give her a little nectar.
But he didn't want to, his heart was full of Shangguan Wanbai.
"I believe that Wanbai is not that kind of person, it must be Li Zi'an pestering her, and I will settle that man myself, but if you still want to be my friend, don't meddle in the affairs between me and Wanbai."
After speaking, Jian Maoxun hung up the phone without hesitation.
Listening to the busy sound, Lin Man felt his heart break to the ground.
Jian Maoxun sat back in his chair, half of his face hidden in the shadows, he was silent for a long time, and finally came up with an idea in his heart.
Now if you want Shangguan Wanbai to become your own person completely, the most direct way is to get Shangguan Yu and ask him to marry Shangguan Wanbai to him.
Only when Shangguan Wanbai became his wife could Jian Maoxun rest assured.
Li Zi'an, that man, even if he thinks about Shangguan Wanbai again, what if he cares about it?
By then, the dust has already fallen, and no matter how great his ability is, there is no way!
So Jian Maoxun planned to visit Shangguan's house in a few days to enhance his relationship with Shangguan's family and make Shangguan Yu more satisfied with himself.
He personally went to choose a pair of antique calligraphy and paintings in advance, and planned to give them to Shangguan Yu when he was in the past.
In the next few days, Jian Maoxun kept silent about the restaurant that day, pretending not to know that Shangguan Wanbai and Li Zi'an had met, and he was still very gentle with her.
Lin Man made a lot of calls to Jian Maoxun during the period, but Jian Maoxun didn't answer, he wanted to cool down and let Lin Man give up that delusion.
