I shrugged my shoulders and was noncommittal to Sergei's words. Changed the subject and asked:

- "You said you wanted to spend the Spring Festival with me, did you just invite me to a meal?" Besides, we have two days left for the Spring Festival, and you have been staying in Irkutsk? Aren't you going to Ulan-Ude? ”

Sergei asked the waiter to serve me coffee, then stared at me and said:

- "I'll go to Ulan-Ude the day after tomorrow, Lina, didn't you tell me that you don't work during the holidays, so go there with me?" ”

- "Do you want me to go with you to the president's inauguration?" I asked.

Sergey nodded.

- "I'll have to think about it, I said, why are you so good to come and spend the holidays with me?" It turned out that you had a request for me! If I don't go, the President of the Republic of Buryatia won't invite you. I teased.

Sergei replied with a smile:

- "Linna, you're really right, I don't think you're going to go, I'm really embarrassed to see him." Originally, I wanted Katya to come, but now our Katya has told me that the leader of her family has given her a rule that she can't leave her for more than two days, and it seems that I can only comply! ”

- "I didn't expect Katya's son to speak so well! I covered my mouth and laughed.

- "Alas! Best of all, he can't speak! Sergei shook his head self-deprecatingly.

- "Hmm! I wondered, in what capacity should I attend the ceremony this time? I asked, holding my chin.

- "That's what I was trying to discuss with you. You are not my subordinate now, so naturally you can't appear in such an capacity. ”

- "Are you just ......" I blurted out looking at Sergei's serious expression, but I swallowed again in the middle of the sentence.

I knew that Sergei needed a female companion to attend the celebration with him this time. However, this made him a little embarrassed.

It stands to reason that his girlfriend should be the one who should accompany her to the ceremony at this time.

Is this guy really not even a girlfriend? Or does he not want his girlfriend to show off?

Originally, I wanted to ask - can't you just let your girlfriend accompany you to the ceremony?

But I swallowed the words as soon as they came to my lips, thinking to myself, this question is too private, and I should not cross the line.

Thinking of this, I said:

- "It would be a great honor for you to invite me to be your female companion at the celebration. ”

Sergei's eyes lit up and he smiled with satisfaction.

- "Sergey, that's it, huh...... If I attended the ceremony as your subordinate, I thought I would be able to handle it, but if I was the female guest you invited, I would be quite cold. ”

Sergey took a sip of coffee and smiled:

- "Looks like we're just getting to the point." ”

I say:

- "Don't be too distressed, I have a handy evening dress, which I originally prepared for David's wedding. It's just that my fox fur coat may not be up to par. ”

- "No problem, tomorrow we'll go buy one that meets the mark." Sergey said.

- "That's good. Tomorrow you ask Genia to take your credit card and go to the mall with me. I don't have that much cash, you want me to pay that much money upfront, and there is no door! I looked up. Said with a serious face.

- "Linna, I'll go with you tomorrow and see what else needs to be prepared." Hey...... Don't embarrass Genia, if you are too ruthless, I'm afraid he will not dare to call the shots. ”

- "Hehe...... So the best! I laughed.
