Chapter 14: Mr. Shi Disguised?

The pre-sale opening date is set for June 18, and Jensen is busy running the construction site during this time, docking pre-sale viewing, and the second phase of construction and other related matters.

And the relevant publicity on An Manman's side has also been planned to be put on the market, and the next step is to focus on preparing for the opening pre-sale activities, the two have not seen each other much since the day of Jensen's injury, and at most they use the phone and WeChat to communicate and work.

And An Manman felt that he had been owing a word of thanks to Jensen, and he didn't know how to speak, so he kept this matter in his heart.

······

One weekday afternoon, An Manman, who was busy sorting out the information, received Shi Xiaobo's private WeChat.

Ding~Ding~

"I'd like to treat you to dinner this Saturday afternoon, isn't it?"

"What's wrong?"

"I've got something to look for you."

"You can't just say something about it, you have to invite you to dinner."

"That's right, at Moom Western Restaurant on the 5th floor of the Star Mall, at 7 o'clock in the evening, I'll give you the address later, I'll wait for you~"

An Manman glanced at Shi Xiaobo, tilted his head sideways, and gave a smiling expression.

Shi Xiaobo also nodded and smiled in response, hinting with his eyes that An Man was full and must come.

······

It's been a long time since I've eaten alone with a boy, although I'm a little unaccustomed to it, but after all, I've been colleagues with Xiaobo for three years, and I reluctantly agreed to have a meal.

On Saturday afternoon, An Manman just didn't need to deal with work, wearing a plain dress and a ponytail, and simply responded to the appointment.

Although the marketing center of [Wanshi Yunding Villa] is also in the Shida shopping mall, An Manman often comes, but she didn't pay much attention to the Moom Western Restaurant on the 5th floor, and walked around for a long time, looking at the façade is quite high-end, An Manman looked at the watch at 18:50, it should have arrived, An Manman thought.

"Hello! Do you have an appointment? The waiter at the door asked enthusiastically.

"Yes, I'm looking for Mr. Shi,"

"Oh, Mr. Shi is already waiting for you, please come with me."

An Manman cautiously followed the waiter into the restaurant, she slowly turned her head, looking at the restaurant, the whole decoration of this restaurant is very comfortable, the tables and chairs are neat and generous, the ceiling is wrong, the lights are warm yellow, and the romantic British oil paintings hanging on the wall are quite artistic conception. But along the way, An Manman found that this restaurant did not have any customers tonight, which was very surprising.

"Hello, Mr. Shi, your guest has arrived!"

The waiter hunched over, then stretched out his hand to signal An Man to take a seat.

"I'm sorry to be late, I've been waiting for a long time!"

An Manman said with a little nervousness and apology, looking at Shi Xiaobo wearing formal clothes for the first time, it was obviously a little surprised.

And the first time he saw An Manman not wearing professional clothes, Shi Xiaobo felt that An Manman was too beautiful at the moment, although he was not carefully dressed, just a simple plain clothes and long skirts, but in his eyes, he felt that such An Manman was very attractive next door.

Shi Xiaobo, who was happy in his heart, responded with a smile full of gentle eyes:

"No, no, just right."

An Manman asked Shi Xiaobo a little seriously and a little puzzled:

"Why is this store so empty today?"

Shi Xiaobo smiled and whispered in response:

"Business is not very good here, there are no people..."

In fact, An Manman, who rarely comes to this kind of appointment, doesn't know that this Moom Western restaurant is the most expensive Western restaurant in the Star Mall, and today it was just chartered by Shi Xiaobo.

······

After the waiter poured the tea, he handed the menu to An Manman and waited for the order.

"Look at what you eat, order whatever you want."

"Well, I don't come here often, or you can recommend it..."

"Okay, waiter, then truffle filet mignon, Antarctic icefish, live lobster, steamed eggs with foie gras caviar, fresh fruit brocade, Italian vegetable soup, Napoleonic pie, thank you."

Shi Xiaobo finished ordering the dish in a hurry.

"So many, have you finished eating for two people?"

"Not much."

Looking at Shi Xiaobo, who looked like I knew very well, An Man smiled slightly, his eyes wandered, and he seemed to be still familiar with the environment.

Although they are very familiar, but the two of them eat alone, it is still such an occasion, it is somewhat restrained at first, and they have been colleagues together for so long, An Man feels that Shi Xiaobo is wearing such a formal dress today, which feels a little strange, but he can't say what is strange.

As the meal was served, the two of them ate and chatted, and soon they came naturally, chatting about interesting things that happened in the company and reminiscing about the past.

······

Suddenly, Shi Xiaobo said to An Manman very formally and seriously:

"Manman, I'm leaving the company!"

The first time he was called Manman by a male colleague, An Manman was a little unaccustomed, but suddenly heard Shi Xiaobo say that he was leaving the company, An Manman looked puzzled:

"Are you leaving?"

"Yes, I came to you today to talk to you about this."

Although An Man was not prepared at all, and he didn't know why Shi Xiaobo suddenly mentioned his resignation, he had to respond with a faint smile:

"When you leave your job, you have dinner in this kind of place alone, and you are dressed so formally..."

Shi Xiaobo smiled:

"Isn't that respectful of me?"

The two smiled and looked at each other, originally thinking that Shi Xiaobo was a little strange today, so he let go of his uneasy heart.

But for Shi Xiaobo, it is obvious that he has decided to return to his true identity, and when facing An Manman and pursuing An Manman in the future, he needs to be in such a state today, because for him, this serious, formal and handsome and natural state, he is confident.

······

Two days later, in the morning, An Manman saw that Shi Xiaobo had already arrived at the company, and he was actually earlier than her, which was quite unexpected.

"Xiaobo, you're early enough today."

An greeted Shi Xiaobo with a smile and walked towards his position.

"It's early, it's early, it's early." At this time, An Manman didn't realize that Shi Xiaobo no longer called her Sister An.

An Man responded with a smile, put down the bag, turned on the computer, picked up the water cup, and went to the boiling water room to fill the water!

When she came back, Shi Xiaobo came over and handed her a piece of paper.

"What is this?"

An Man put down the water cup, opened the paper, and wrote [Resignation Application] on his head. Although Shi Xiaobo had already greeted him in advance, An Manman still said:

"Are you sure?"

"Well, think it through."

Hearing this, An Manman is not easy to keep. After all, the resignation of colleagues is also a common thing, so he smiled and encouraged Shi Xiaobo with gestures:

"Then, come on~"

Then An Man prepared to sit down, picked up the papers on the table, and planned to look at the materials.

······

And Shi Xiaobo, who had been looking at An Manman, did not leave, but added:

"The HR department has found a new colleague to replace me, and I will hand over the work with him today."

When An Manman heard this, he put down the information in his hand and turned to Shi Xiaobo:

"Not bad! It's quite efficient! Okay, you and your new colleague will hand over the work, and feel free to tell me if you have any questions! ”

Seeing An Manman's slight smile, Shi Xiaobo hurriedly added:

"It's not a colleague, it's still a friend, I often come out to get together, I'll invite you to dinner!"

"That's nature!" An Manman's smile at this time made Shi Xiaobo let go of his tense heart.

And An Manman just responded politely, never thinking about what would happen later.

·····

That's right, Shi Xiaobo is the only son of President Wang of Wanshi Group, and when he was a child with his mother's surname, he acted low-key on weekdays, so almost no one could guess that he was actually a veritable rich second generation, and even An Manman still doesn't know.

······

Shi Xiaobo was busy bringing his new colleague Guo Bin to familiarize himself with the company and the team, and also explained the project he was working on to Guo Bin in detail.

He also backed up the files and materials, organized them into disks, and gave them to Xu Qian in detail.

When he left work, on Shi Xiaobo's original workstation, Guo Bin had already started to work very skillfully, and Shi Xiaobo found a vacant position next to him and sat down, he slowly turned his head, looking at all this in the office, and the familiar feeling came up little by little.

Finally, he saw An Manman, who was busy typing on the keyboard, presumably sorting out some information. For the first time, Shi Xiaobo could be so natural and relaxed, looking at An Man openly, and memories emerged...

······

3 years ago, Shi Xiaobo sent his mother to a foreign vacation at the airport, and he was going to drive his mother for a ride after sending his mother, and he witnessed the scene of a girl breaking up with her boyfriend, and this girl was full of Anman. He watched An Man calmly propose to break up, and wiped his tears after turning around, he knew that this girl's heart was full of scars.

He followed An Man Man out of the terminal building, and saw An Man hiding in the corner crying, that kind of fragile and strong, so that Shi Xiaobo was very moved, from that moment, he fell in love with this girl, and tried every means to know that her name was An Manman, working in Los Angeles LRO advertising design company, and then through various relationships and channels, he joined An Manman's company with a design job position, and became a colleague with An Manman.

He wanted to know more about An Manman, but he didn't dare to confess easily, so he could only accompany An Manman in the name of his colleague first, and he was the same age as An Manman, and he would be the same as his colleagues, calling An Manman "Sister An", but he didn't like this title at all.

In the more than three years that they have worked together, he will stay every once in a while to accompany An Manman to work overtime, and An Manman will joke when he sees Shi Xiaobo, who is still working overtime:

"Xiaobo, how can you find a girlfriend in the office?"

Shi Xiaobo, who felt cared for, would also jokingly respond:

"Sister An is not in a hurry, I am a man in a hurry."

······

In the past three years with An Manman as a colleague, Shi Xiaobo has more or less understood An Manman's personality preferences, and it is this kind of daily work that makes Shi Xiaobo accustomed to accompanying An Manman.

Over the years, Shi Xiaobo knew that An Manman had always been single and had never had much contact with men. Because he knows that An Manman is not the kind of girl who agrees to love at first sight, he wants to use companionship to slowly get closer to An Manman's heart.

Shi Xiaobo thought that he could accompany An Manman like this, and when An Manman walked out of the emotional wound, he could naturally appear and capture her heart.

······

However, Jensen's appearance made Shi Xiaobo a little uneasy, Jensen saw An Manman's expression after slipping off his rubber bands and scattering his hair, the two of them went to see the scene of the artificial sea alone, and Jensen was also injured by An Manman... This scene after scene.

Although Shi Xiaobo knew that he and Jensen had not yet become rivals in love, the man's intuition told him that this time was dangerous, and Jensen would be the number one rival and needed attention.

Therefore, his quest must be carried out as soon as possible, otherwise he doesn't even know what the ending will be...
