"Jiren, I can't be friends with you."

Su Xiaoran said, and immediately hung up the phone, not giving Ji Ren the slightest chance. She turned off her phone and covered her head with a pillow, but the scene of her first meeting with Kihito appeared in her mind.

That was five years ago, when I first entered college. That day, Su Xiaoran went to the library to borrow books, and at that time she found a novel she liked very much, called "Reminiscences of the Past", because she was too obsessed with the plot of the book, she actually squatted under the bookshelf and read the book, and she got carried away.

So much so that she didn't know that the book on the bookshelf above her head had slipped down, that is, in those few seconds, Ji Ren appeared, just passing by, and stretched out his hand to help her block the book that had slipped, so that Su Xiaoran would not be smashed by the book.

If you want to ask Su Xiaoran what she believes most in this world, then she will definitely say without hesitation that it is the word 'just', too many things that cannot be explained, as long as they happen to be together, it will become a natural thing.

Ji Ren appeared in the library where the cicadas could be heard on that summer afternoon, when Su Xiaoran was fascinated by books, and he smiled warmly at her, and since then a landscape has been carved in her heart, which is a place exclusive to Ji Ren.

Five years, in a hurry.

Su Xiaoran never thought that the encounter five years ago made her learn to fall in love with someone, and today, five years later, the person who taught her how to love said that she wanted to get to know her again.

But how many things in the world can be done all over again?

After thinking about it for a long time, Su Xiaoran gradually fell asleep, and when she finally woke up again, it was exactly half past seven in the morning, and after a hurried breakfast, Su Xiaoran came to Chu Feng, and the person in charge of greeting her was Xia Lin, who met once last time, Qiao Xiaoyan's friend.

Xia Lin seemed to have an impression of Su Xiaoran, and as soon as the two met, she hugged her warmly and asked, "Have you worked hard along the way?" ”

"Fortunately, thank you for taking the time to pick me up, I heard from Manager Wang, there have been some changes in product quality recently, so I was anxious to call me over to have a look."

"Don't worry, it's not easy for you to come over, I'll take you to familiarize yourself with our company's environment today, and it's not too late to look at the product tomorrow."

"But,"

"It's nothing, Xiaoran, you have to learn to enjoy, it's rare to go on a business trip alone, you must play for a while."

Xia Lin said, pulled Su Xiaoran into her office, and made tea for her personally. Charlene's enthusiasm made Su Xiaoran very uncomfortable, she drank piping hot tea, but felt very uncomfortable.

"Xiaoran, the last time we met, I wanted to have a good conversation with you, but I couldn't be empty, now it's okay, you come this time, you shouldn't go back so soon, we can have a good chat in the next few days."

Xia Lin sat down, Su Xiaoran smiled lightly, "Manager Xia is polite, I'm here to work, don't dare to slack off." ”

"I know, Wang Wei sent you, right? Don't worry, I'm very familiar with him, just talk to him, you don't have to pay attention to him. ”

"By the way, Xiaoran, wasn't your previous manager Chenxi? How did you change people? ”

"He ......"

Su Xiaoran didn't know how to respond. Charlene looked at her carefully. Covering his mouth and smiling, he continued: "You don't say that I know it, I heard that you are together?" At the beginning, I could see that Chenxi's eyes were wrong when he looked at you, and it seems that I really didn't guess wrong. ”

Su Xiaoran lowered her head and smiled lightly. Of course, she understands that it is impossible for Charlene not to know about herself and Chenxi, because Charlene is Qiao Xiaoyan's friend.

"I guess I'd better go to work sooner, right? There wasn't much time. Su Xiaoran was just about to stand up, but Xia Lin pulled her back again, "What's the hurry, there is not much work, and it is not too late to do it tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." In this way, today I will send someone to introduce you to the company's situation, there is a dinner in the evening, our company's Mr. Li will meet you in person, I will go to work first, and I will come to pick you up before dinner. ”

"Xiao Zhang, you take Miss Su to the company to have a look and introduce our latest situation."

Xia Lin instructed the secretary and left the office, leaving Su Xiaoran alone in the huge room.

It seems that there is no way to work today. Su Xiaoran sighed lightly, stood up, and followed Xiao Zhang around inside Chu Feng. said that she was on a business trip, but all day today, she hadn't seen Chu Feng's other leaders except for Xia Lin, although Su Xiaoran had doubts in her heart, but since Xia Lin said that there was a dinner at night, she had to suppress these doubts.

After visiting Chufeng Group, Su Xiaoran returned to Xia Lin's office, Xia Lin has never come back since she went out in the morning, Su Xiaoran sat alone inside, very uncomfortable.

During this period, she called Wang Wei and expressed her doubts, but Wang Wei just hurriedly perfunctory her, saying that he also sent her after receiving a notice from above, and the specific itinerary was still decided according to Chu Feng's arrangement.

Putting down the phone, Su Xiaoran understood a little, maybe a business trip was just a pretense, this must have been arranged by Qiao Xiaoyan, and it was clearly for himself.

She remembered that when she was on the train last night, the person next to her looked sneaky, and she didn't think much about it at that time, after all, it was a safe place, but she never thought that her wallet would be stolen, could it be that she came prepared?

Su Xiaoran couldn't sit still, she went around the outside alone, walked out of Chu Feng again, and walked around casually in the neighborhood, it was getting late, she remembered what Xia Lin said about the meal, and set off to go back.

When Su Xiaoran returned, it was exactly six o'clock in the afternoon, Xia Lin was already sitting in the office, Su Xiaoran was about to explain, but she didn't expect Xia Lin to care at all, but greeted her with a smile, "You're back, I'll wait for you for a while." ”

"I'm sorry, I was bored after visiting your company, so I walked around the neighborhood."

"If you want to go out and talk to me, I'm afraid you'll be bored alone. By the way, our Mr. Li said that he was originally going to invite you to dinner, but suddenly there was an emergency, and he couldn't get out, so he might have to wait for another day. Is this good, in the evening, I will invite you to dinner, although my face is not as good as Mr. Li, but I am also an old acquaintance with Chairman Chen, you won't even sell me this face, right? ”

Xia Lin smiled at Cen Cen's appearance very charming, Su Xiaoran didn't have the heart to deal with it, but since she had already said it, it was inappropriate to go or not.

After thinking about it, Su Xiaoran nodded: "Then it's bothering you." ”

"What's the trouble with me, we're old friends, maybe there will be a lot of opportunities to meet in the future, don't be polite to me!"

Su Xiaoran followed Xia Lin into her car, and along the way, Xia Lin always kept talking, but the one she mentioned the most was Qiao Xiaoyan. Su Xiaoran also learned that Xia Lin and Qiao Xiaoyan have been friends for many years, they met when they were studying abroad, and later, they had work contacts with each other, and the relationship became even closer.

"Don't say it, I've known Xiaoyan for so long, but I've never seen her have a boyfriend, this is really a god, you said that she is so beautiful and has a good family background, why is she so emotionally frustrated?"

After Xia Lin finished speaking, Su Xiaoran was already very uncomfortable. However, Charlene chuckled a few times and then turned around and said, "Xiao Yan, that person is good at everything, but he is too perfectionist and wants the best in everything." From the first day I met her, I felt that she pushed herself very hard, she worked hard, maybe others couldn't understand her, a princess born with a golden spoon, why did she have to work hard like Cinderella. But I understand her, Xiao Yan has been trained to be a boy since she was a child, so she can't be slack in the slightest. ”

When they arrived at their destination, the two of them got out of the car, smelling the smell of the lonely wind in the city, Su Xiaoran's mood was difficult to explain. Charlene's words were very tactful, but they also made her the most uncomfortable.

The better Qiao Xiaoyan is, the more she shines a light on her ordinariness. Perhaps, in the eyes of many people, she is indeed unworthy of Chenxi, Chenxi, like Qiao Xiaoyan, is very strict and cruel to himself, but it is also that kind of demand, which makes them shine in the crowd.

And what about her?

"Let's go inside!"

Xia Lin smiled and took Su Xiaoran's hand and walked in.

……

After dinner, Xia Lin insisted on sending Su Xiaoran back to the hotel, but she couldn't resist her, and Su Xiaoran agreed.

"Thank you."

Su Xiaoran looked at Charlene, who was also radiant, and said.

"What's polite, there are still many meetings to be held in the company tomorrow, I estimate that there is no time to inspect the products for the time being, why don't you rest first, and I'll pick you up in the afternoon?"

"No need, I can go through it alone." Su Xiaoran said and got out of the car.

"Su Xiaoran."

As soon as Su Xiaoran stepped on the ground, he heard Ji Ren's voice. She saw that Ji Ren was standing at the door of the hotel, waiting for her.

Before she could react, Charlene had already gotten out of the car: "Xiaoran, who is this?" ”

There was too much information in Xia Lin's eyes, and Su Xiaoran knew that she had misunderstood, so she explained: "This is mine...... Friend. ”

"Friends? How did he know you lived here? ”

"I happened to meet here yesterday, Manager Xia, thank you today."

Xia Lin's eyes hadn't taken off Ji Ren's eyes, she smiled and said, "You're welcome!" Then I won't bother you, I'll go back first. ”

After speaking, she got in the car and left, Su Xiaoran was stunned, she didn't want anyone to know that she and Ji Ren had met, there were many misunderstandings, and they couldn't explain it clearly.

"Su Xiaoran, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Ji Ren didn't care about this and walked over happily.

"Is there something wrong?" Su Xiaoran felt her cold tone, she stepped back, for Ji Ren, she had already formed a reflex defense.

Ji Ren was just about to speak, Chenxi called, Su Xiaoran looked at the phone for a long time, but he didn't answer, Ji Ren guessed that it was Chenxi's call, so he pursed his lips and smiled, "Why don't you answer the phone?" ”
