The next day was Monday, and su Yicheng drove Anran to work first. Anran turned her head to look outside and didnât say anything. The atmosphere was a little heavy.
The car slowly stopped in front of the building of âJingcheng constructionâ. After the engine was turned off, Anran unbuckled her seat belt, turned her head to thank su Yicheng, and picked up her bag to open the door and get out of the car.
âAn ran.â Su Yicheng grabbed her hand when she opened the door.
Anran turned her head, looked at him in confusion, and asked, â âWhatâs wrong?â
Su Yicheng didnât say anything and just smiled. Then, he pulled her over, leaned over, and kissed her on the forehead before letting her go. With a faint smile on his face, he helped her adjust her folded neckline, and then said softly, â âGo to work. Remember to wait for me tonight?â
Anran nodded, her face red from his kiss. She looked at him and couldnât help but remind him, â âBe careful when you drive.â
Su Yicheng smiled and nodded.
Perhaps she was still a little shy and embarrassed, but Anran didnât dare to look him in the eye. She quickly turned around and got out of the car, then quickly walked toward the office building. On the way, she didnât forget to turn her head to look. Seeing that he was still looking at her, she waved at him and walked in without looking back.
In the car, su Yicheng shook his head and laughed. He didnât start the car and leave until her figure disappeared behind the door.
When Anran arrived at the office, she felt that the atmosphere was a little off. They seemed to be discussing something in the office, but when they saw her coming, they quickly pretended to leave.
Anran didnât ask any more questions and returned to her office.
She seemed to have had too much soup for lunch, so she ran to the bathroom several times in the afternoon.
Less than a minute after Anran went in, two female colleagues in the office also came to the bathroom. They were here to touch up their makeup. No, to be more precise, they were here to chat and gossip.
......
&Quot; did you see the corner of Xiao Xiaoâs eye? thereâs a big scratch. &Quot; One of them said.
Another person replied, â who didnât see it? did she think that she could cover it up by wearing sunglasses? this is clearly a lie. Who in the company doesnât know about her and Huang Dexingâs scandal? this time, she was caught red-handed by the main wife. Sheâs lucky that she only got a scratch on the corner of her eye. How many cases does she have on hand? she dresses up every day in a devilish way. &Quot;
&Quot; sigh, she can only rely on her face and her skills in bed to be so domineering in the office. Are you jealous? if youâre jealous, then go buy a few pieces of cloth and draw more seductresses every day. Then, when the director comes over, youâll throw flirtatious glances at him. Maybe you donât need to draw and you can directly become another beautiful designer in our company. &Quot;
&Quot; go to hell. Iâd rather draw for the rest of my life than serve an old man that can be me at that age. &Quot;
Outside, the two of them laughed and laughed for a while. After washing their hands, they were about to leave. However, when they turned around and were about to leave, they were suddenly shocked to see Xiao Xiaoâs Black face, which covered half of her face. Her big waves were still flirtatious, and her tight suit complemented her impressive figure.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âDesigner, designer Xiao.â The two of them, who had been chatting and laughing just now, were dumbfounded. They didnât know when Xiao Xiao had come in or how much she had heard.
Xiao Xiao stepped forward. The black figure covered half of her face, so no one could see her expression at the moment.
The two of them, who had been joking around, suddenly became listless. They looked at Xiao Xiao, who gave in to her with a dry smile, and stuttered, â âWe, weâll go out first.â
Xiao Xiao stood in front of the glass counter and reached out to take off her sunglasses. The corner of her eye had a bright red and slender gash, and the surrounding dark circles were red and swollen. Expressionlessly, she took out the powder box from her bag and opened it to get a powder puff to touch up her makeup, focusing on the corner of her eyes.
Seeing this, the two of them turned around and were about to leave when they heard Xiao Xiao say indifferently, â you donât have to come tomorrow. &Quot; His tone was neither fast nor slow, neither salty nor light.
Upon hearing this, the two of them suddenly stood up, turned around, and said with a sad face, â &Quot; s-sister Xiao, we were wrong. We didnât do it on purpose. We donât mean any harm. Please donât take it to heart. &Quot;
Xiao Xiao looked at herself in the mirror indifferently and skillfully touched up her makeup, trying to cover the redness and swelling on her face. He did not even look at the two people behind him.
Seeing that she was unmoved and had no reaction at all, he didnât know what her attitude was. Although he didnât like her, she was still Huang Dexingâs people after all. If he really wanted them to leave, it wasnât impossible.
The corner of her eye was so red and swollen that the foundation couldnât cover half of it. The excessive powder made the corner of her eye look strange and awkward. She clenched the powder puff tightly in her hand and thought of the scene of her being caught by Huang Dexingâs evil woman yesterday. Then, she thought of Huang Dexing standing aside and watching her get beaten up indifferently. The anger in her chest grew wildly, and the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. She turned her head, glared at them, and roared, â âWhat are you still doing here? get lost!â
The two of them were shocked. At that moment, the corners of Xiao Xiaoâs eyes were red and swollen. Her expression was ferocious, and she looked really terrifying.
âWhat are you looking at? get out.â
One of them was not to be outdone and retorted, â you, what right do you have to ask us to leave? besides, what we said just now was the truth. If youâre afraid of people talking about it, then donât do it. Youâve done it and youâre not letting people talk about it. Why are you acting all high and mighty? â
âWhat did you just say?â Xiao Xiao stepped forward and glared at her with eyes that seemed to be able to eat people. It was terrifying. She gritted her teeth and said, â âI dare you to say that again!â
The man swallowed his saliva and kept stepping back. The other man standing beside him looked a little scared. He was about to say something to ease the atmosphere before he said, â &Quot; s-sister Xiao, â Xiao Xiao said. She was so scared that she couldnât say a word when she looked at her.
âåå¦å¦å¦âââ
just as they were in a stalemate outside, anran came out of the bathroom after washing up. she turned her head and glanced at them, then turned to the sink.
xiao xiao suddenly turned to anran, glared at her, and asked, â âwhat are you doing here?â
anran glanced at her in the mirror, turned on the water, applied the hand wash, and began to wash her hands. she said, â âiâm going to the toilet.â
âYou heard everything!â Xiao Xiaoâs hands, which were placed on both sides of her thighs, were tightly clenched into fists. She had not expected that she would be in the bathroom. She had heard her embarrassing and unbearable words!
Without looking at her, an ran replied indifferently, â âIâm not deaf,â Moreover, she couldnât even pretend that she didnât hear them even if she wanted to!
Xiao Xiaoâs chest heaved up and down as she looked at her and sneered, â âYouâre very proud now, arenât you? youâre snickering, snickering at me for having such a day, arenât you? You must be very happy to see me make a fool of myself.â
Anran rinsed her hands with water and wiped the water off her hands with a tissue. She turned her head and looked at her calmly, then said, â you always like to force your thoughts on others. I donât think so, but you must think so. I canât do anything about it, because your thoughts are your own. I canât change them. &Quot;
âHmph, you make it sound nice. Donât think I donât know that youâre waiting to see me make a fool of myself.â Xiao Xiao said harshly.
Anran sneered. &Quot; donât think that everyone is like you. Not everyone is as narrow-minded as you. &Quot;
âYou!â Xiao Xiao was so angry that her chest felt like it was being bullied.
An ran didnât say anything more. She walked past her and was about to leave.
&Quot; how good do you think you are? youâre just lucky enough to have su Yicheng with you. Otherwise, youâd be nothing! &Quot; Xiao Xiao said with hatred.
Anran smiled and nodded. She didnât deny her words and said, â âIâm indeed lucky.â
&Quot; Hmph, Iâve seen many people like him. Iâm afraid heâs just playing around. When heâs tired of you, he might just kick you away. &Quot; Xiao Xiao said harshly, her eyes filled with jealousy and anger.
Anran smiled faintly and ignored her. She walked straight out of the bathroom, and when she passed by the two girls, she said to them, â âAre you guys done with the drawing I asked you to do last week?â
&Quot; uh ... &Quot; the two were stunned. What map? they looked at each other, not knowing what Anran was talking about.
Anran furrowed her brows and gave them a look. She pretended to be stern and said, â âYou havenât even drawn a picture, and youâre still chatting? Hurry up and go back to your drawing!â
Only then did the two of them come back to their senses. They hurriedly nodded and said, â âWeâll go back now, weâll go back now.â Then, she quickly turned around and left the washroom.
Xiao Xiao watched them leave in anger. Finally, she grabbed the powder box and smashed it on the ground.
Outside the bathroom, the two people who had been gossiping in the bathroom just now thanked Anran. If it hadnât been for her appearance, they would have really gotten into a fight with Xiao Xiao. After all, Xiao Xiao was Huang Dexingâs woman. If she really wanted to get over them, it wouldnât be a joke.
Anran nodded slightly and only warned them, â donât talk so much in the future. &Quot; Whoever heard them gossiping behind their backs would be angry.
The two of them nodded repeatedly. They didnât dare to do so anymore. They were scared to death.
Anran didnât say anything more and went straight back to her office.
When it was almost time to get off work, Huang Dexing called her to his office and handed her a pile of documents, saying that the company was planning to compete for an overseas case in the near future and would be bidding in a monthâs time. The time was a little tight because, in addition to the design drawings, the company also had to produce a sample room, and there would be a professional to evaluate and check it.
âI-Iâm really in charge of this project?â An ran was flattered.
Huang Dexing raised his eyebrows and asked, â âWhat, youâre not confident?â
âNo, I, Iâm just a little surprised.â After all, this project was too big and would affect the companyâs future development overseas.
âI believe you. You have a good understanding of design. Of course, Iâll still say the same thing. If you have any problems, you can come to me directly. If you canât make a decision, you can also come to me for advice.â Huang Dexing said with a smile.
Anran nodded and took the pile of documents on the table. She promised, â I will try my best and wonât let you down! &Quot;
âOkay, Iâll wait for you to show me your design.â
âYes.â Anran nodded happily, then left the office with the information he gave her.
The project this time was a large-scale Manor with various activity and leisure areas. The area and area were very large, and the investment was even more huge. Because the investor was the âJason consortiumâ of the United Kingdom, which was a noble consortium in the United Kingdom, the media from all over the world had a high degree of attention to the project they launched this time. So if âsincerity constructionâ could win this project in one fell swoop, then it would undoubtedly be a huge success, whether it was in China or abroad.
While Anran was excitedly looking at the information she had gotten from Huang Dexing, su Yichengâs phone rang. Su Yicheng was already downstairs, but he didnât see Anran, so he called to ask if she was still busy.
It was only then that Anran remembered that su Yicheng had said yesterday that he was going to take her to a mysterious place today. She packed her things and put the documents into her briefcase before going downstairs.
When she arrived downstairs, su Yichengâs car was already parked at the companyâs main gate. When he saw her coming out of the building, he opened the door and got out of the car. He looked at her with a faint smile on his face.
Anran trotted forward and looked at him apologetically. &Quot; âHave you waited long? Iâm sorry, I forgot about it when I was looking at the information.â
Su Yicheng smiled and reached out to smooth her hair, which was a little messy from running, then opened the car door and said, â âGet in the car.â
Anran nodded, smiled at him, and got into the car.
Su Yitian closed the car door for her like a gentleman, then walked around the front of the car and got in from the other side.
After he got into the car, Anran couldnât help but ask curiously, â âWhere are we going?â He had said yesterday that he was going to take her to a place, but he had kept it a secret from her.
Su Yicheng started the car and turned to smile at her. &Quot; letâs go eat first. &Quot;
The car slowly stopped in front of a Chinese restaurant with its own unique characteristics. All kinds of luxury cars were gathered at the entrance, and it was a little dazzling.
Anran raised her head. She had heard of Yiran garden before. It had just opened two months ago. On the day of its opening, she heard that a famous celebrity in the country was invited to come to the stage and attract countless people. Some fans even traveled thousands of miles, unafraid of the hardship, just to see their idol. And because of the celebrityâs promotion, the restaurantâs reputation spread quickly. Moreover, on the opening day, the owner of this âYiran gardenâ even spared no expense to organize a free day of food tasting event. In addition, the restaurantâs chefâs excellent cooking skills made almost everyone who had eaten it praise it endlessly. The latter part of the people became the restaurantâs loyal customers, even though the cost here was not cheap. She was also introducing the newly opened Chinese restaurant to her friends and relatives.
âLetâs go. I heard that this restaurantâs Zhejiang cuisine is pretty good.â As su Yicheng spoke, he took her hand and led her into the dining room.
âHave you eaten here before?â An ran asked casually.
Su Yicheng chuckled and shook his head, saying, â âNo, that girl yijiao told me.â
âYijiao! She has her own restaurant, why would she come to someone elseâs?â
âHahaha. Didnât I tell you that this restaurant also belongs to yijiao?â Su Yicheng said, amused.
Anranâs eyes widened and she shook her head. She didnât expect yijiao to be the Queen of the gastronomic industry in Jiangcheng. She looked like a child, but she didnât expect her to open one restaurant after another!
The two of them went in. They didnât ask for a private room, but found a place to sit in the hall. Su Yichengâs order seemed to be a coincidence. Anran actually found out that their tastes were almost the same, and she also happened to like what he liked to eat.
âSo you like to eat these dishes too!â An ran said with joy.
âYup,â Su Yicheng responded lightly with a good-looking smile on his lips.
Upon entering, he realized that the management style of this place was similar to youran cuisine. The only difference was the decoration and design. It was different from the low-key luxury that people said. Everything here was plain and simple. Just like the name of a restaurant, it was quiet and made people feel comfortable.
The dishes were served very quickly, and the taste was really good. It didnât lose to youran cuisine at all.
âDid you bring me here for dinner today?â An ran asked as she took a bite of food.
Su Yicheng laughed and quickly picked up a piece of meat for her, saying, â âNo, Iâll Take You There after eating.â
âWhat kind of place is it?â An ran asked curiously.
Su Yicheng smiled but didnât say anything. He only shook his head gently.
Anran cursed him in her heart and continued to eat her food. At this moment, a soft and sweet voice rang out from behind her.
âSpecial Assistant su, senior an ran!â His tone seemed to be filled with surprise and joy.
Su Yicheng raised his head and simply nodded with a smile on his face. However, that smile was a little distant and not warm.
Hearing this, Anran also turned her head and saw Tong Xiaojie, who was wearing a beige dress, looking at them with a smile.
âSenior Sister and special Assistant su also came here to eat!â Tong Xiaojie smiled as she walked over to them. &Quot; the food here is really good and the environment is also very good. &Quot;
Anran looked at her indifferently and turned her head without answering her.
Su Yicheng glanced at Anran, then looked up with a smile and nodded at Tong Xiaoyi. He asked, â âMiss Tong, are you alone? Do you want to go together?â
âNo, Iâm coming with my husband.â Tong Xiaojie replied lightly. Then, she turned to look at Anran and saw that Anran was eating her meal calmly.
âOh, really?â Su Yicheng nodded in understanding and didnât say much. He then looked back at Anran gently, picked up another piece of meat, and put it in Anranâs bowl. &Quot; âCome, just a bit later, youâre too thin.â
Tong Xiaojie looked at them and smiled faintly. She said, â Special Assistant su and senior, do you want to come with us? we have booked a private room inside. Chief Zhang of Yuanshan construction will be there too. &Quot; I think they must be very happy to see special Assistant su.â
&Quot; no, Anran and I have something to do later. Letâs meet again next time. &Quot; Su Yicheng refused.
Tong Xiaojie nodded and said regretfully, â then we can only wait for the next time. &Quot;
âOkay, letâs meet again next time.â Su Yicheng nodded in agreement.
Tong Xiaojie said to Anran, â senior, Iâll go first. You and special Assistant su can enjoy your meal. &Quot; He didnât care whether an ran answered or not. After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked toward the private room inside.
The atmosphere became a little strange after Tong Xiaojie came. Anran lowered her head and ate in silence, while su Yicheng looked at her with a slight frown.
Not long after, just as su Yicheng was about to say something, he saw Zhang Yuanshan, who was behind Anran, approach them with a big smile on his face. Mo Fei was also behind him.
âSpecial Assistant su, what a coincidence! Youâre here for dinner too!â Zhang Yuanshanâs voice came before he approached.
Su Yicheng looked up at him, and a standard smile appeared on his face. He moved his chair away, stood up, and walked over to him. Seeing this, Anran also put down her bowl and chopsticks and stood up. She turned around and happened to see mo Fei, who was behind Zhang Yuanshan.
Zhang Yuanshan was very happy to see su Yicheng and his wife. He had been trying to find time to invite su Yicheng to dinner as an apology for what happened at the banquet, but after calling him a few times, his Secretary had rejected him, and he didnât even get to see him. This time, however, he didnât expect to meet su Yicheng here when he invited mo Fei and Tong Xiaoxiao to discuss the future development of the company. What was even better was that mo Fei and Tong Xiaoxiao were classmates and schoolmates of su Yichengâs wife, Gu Anran. Even if su Yicheng didnât give him face, he would give mo Fei and Tong Xiaoxiao face. This was really wonderful!
Zhang Yuanshan warmly extended his hands to shake su Yichengâs and repeatedly sighed, â âSpecial Assistant su is here too. What a coincidence. Iâve been wanting to ask you out for lunch a few days ago, but you were too busy and didnât give me the chance.â
Su Yichengâs expression did not change as he shook his hand. The smile on his face was still warm as he nodded and said calmly, â thank you for your love, President Zhang. Iâve been busy with the research recently, so Iâve been a little busy. &Quot;
&Quot; then itâs better to meet by chance than to invite someone. It seems that we are really fated to have this meal. Why donât Special Assistant su condescend to come to our private room? â Zhang Yuanshan invited.
Su Yicheng smiled faintly. &Quot; youâre too kind, President Zhang. &Quot; Then, he turned to look at Anran and saw that she was also looking at him quietly. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and his mood became much better.
This Zhang Yuanshan was also a smart person. From nothing to getting rich overnight, and then to being in the business world for so many years, it was basic to observe peopleâs expressions. Upon seeing this, he seemed to understand something. He turned to Anran and said, â &Quot; Mrs. Su, Iâm really sorry about what happened at the cocktail party last time. Can I take this opportunity today to have the honor to invite you to a meal as an apology for what happened last time? â
Upon hearing this, Anran turned her head to look at su Yicheng, only to see that he was only looking at her with a smile and had no intention of speaking. An ran thought that it was inconvenient for him to refuse, so she wanted to do it herself. Thinking of this, he turned to Zhang Yuanshan and said with a faint smile, â &Quot; you must be joking, Mr. Zhang. Weâve already made things clear last time. It was just a misunderstanding. Thereâs no need for you to keep it in mind. &Quot;
&Quot; haha, itâs Mrs. SUâs magnanimity. Even if it wasnât for what happened last time, it just so happens that mo Fei and Xiao Xiao are here today. The three of you were classmates and schoolmates before. Xiao Xiao and the others just came back from abroad. You havenât seen each other for many years. Today is a good time to catch up. &Quot; Zhang Yuanshan said. He turned to mo Fei and said, â âDonât you think so, mo Fei?â
Only then did mo Fei snap back to his senses. He nodded in a daze, and the smile at the corner of his mouth was bitter. He nodded in agreement and looked at Anran firmly. &Quot; yes, we havenât seen each other for a long time, and we do have a lot to talk about. Anran, letâs have a seat. The Osmanthus fish here is not bad. I remember that you used to like steamed Osmanthus fish the most. &Quot;
An ranâs face stiffened, and her smile froze on her face. She avoided his eyes and did not look at him.
Naturally, su Yicheng noticed her change and strangeness. He reached out to hold her hand and smiled affectionately at her. Then, he turned to look at mo Fei and said calmly, â itâs rare that President mo still remembers what Anran likes to eat, but habits are a strange thing. Some people used to like and even love some things very much, but after a long time, their taste will change, especially when youâve rejected a dish for six years. Can you still remember the taste of it? â
Mo Fei stiffened, and his body was obviously in a daze. He looked at su Yicheng and stiffly said, â âMaybe itâs because I havenât eaten it for six years. Iâm afraid Iâll only miss the taste of the past even more.â
Zhang Yuanshan was a little confused. It had only been a while, and they were already talking about food?
The smile on su Yichengâs face didnât change, and he still said in a carefree manner, â &Quot; maybe she missed it at the beginning. After all, she loved it so much. Itâs like quitting smoking and drinking. The most difficult time is in the beginning, but if she doesnât want to eat it after a long time, which has been as long as six years, it can only prove that she has successfully removed this dish from her hobby. &Quot;
&Quot; how do you know that she hasnât thought about that dish? perhaps she has thought about it day and night and has never forgotten! &Quot; Mo Feiâs emotions started to get a little agitated.
&Quot; perhaps itâs as you said, President mo. She really has a deep affection for that dish and canât forget it for a long time, but in the end, she didnât eat it. Thereâs only one reason, and that is that this dish hurt her too deeply. That wound made her afraid and fearful. &Quot; Su Yicheng said.
Hearing this, mo Fei turned his head to look at Anran, who was standing next to him, and couldnât help but ask, â âIs that so?â
Zhang Yuanshan seemed to have heard something mysterious, but the scene at the moment was very strange, so he had to ask jokingly, â âDid Mrs. Su get a fish bone stuck in her throat before?â
Anran didnât know how to reply, and she subconsciously turned her head to look at su Yicheng.
Su Yicheng was still smiling gently. He reached out and naturally wrapped his arms around Anranâs waist, then jokingly said to Zhang Yuanshan, â &Quot; thatâs right. Back then, I got a big fish bone stuck in it. From then on, Iâve been a little afraid of mandarin fish. &Quot;
âHaha, I see, I see.â Zhang Yuanshan nodded. âThen Iâm afraid Mrs. Su wonât dare to touch the fish in the future.â
âNot that one either.â Su Yicheng shook his head, turned to mo Fei, and said with a faint smile, â &Quot; thereâs nothing that canât be replaced. There are other fish if you donât eat mandarin fish. Itâs just the bones that got stuck. Itâs true that youâre traumatized by mandarin fish, but it doesnât matter if itâs other fish. You canât miss out on all the other fishâs delicacies just for one mandarin fish, right, President mo? â
Mo Fei was stunned and couldnât say a word. His hands that were resting on both sides of his thighs clenched tightly into fists. His nails dug deep into his palms, but he didnât feel any pain.
The atmosphere was a little awkward. Zhang Yuanshan naturally saw something and quickly smiled.âThen letâs not have mandarin fish today. Special Assistant su and Mrs. Su can go over. I have to have a few drinks with Special Assistant su tonight.â
Speaking of drinking, Anran subconsciously said, â âHe canât drink!â
âWhy?â Zhang Yuanshan was stunned and asked. He had heard that su Yichengâs alcohol tolerance was good, and he was just thinking about whether he should open a bottle of high-quality Maotai to suit his appetite.
After Anran finished speaking, she felt that she had spoken too abruptly and regretted speaking too quickly. She didnât know what it was like to be the wife of a government official. On TV, she usually just stood there with a smile on her face. If that was really the case, then she seemed to have spoken too much. She looked at su Yicheng with some annoyance, only to see him looking at her with a smile.
Seeing that they didnât answer, and su Yicheng didnât refute, Zhang Yuanshan jokingly said, â âHaha, it seems that Special Assistant su really loves his wife.â What he meant was that su Yicheng was afraid of his wife, and Anran didnât give in just because she said so. He just didnât expect that su Yicheng, a strong and iron-fisted man, would actually be afraid of his wife!
Upon hearing this, su Yicheng smiled and only said, â âA wife is meant to be loved after being married.â
Zhang Yuanshan nodded. &Quot; haha, yes, yes, yes. Special Assistant su is right. A wife should be married and loved. &Quot; Then, she turned to Anran and said, â Mrs. Su, please give Special Assistant su a night off. Drinking is just to liven things up. We wonât drink too much. &Quot;
Anran shook her head and rejected him decisively. &Quot; Iâm sorry, Mr. Zhang. Yichengâs stomach hasnât been very good recently. The doctor said that he should avoid smoking and drinking. &Quot; After the past few days, she was afraid. It was fine if she was not by his side usually, but she was here today. She knew about his stomachâs condition, so she naturally would not let him drink.
âUh, is Special Assistant su not feeling well? is it a big problem?â Zhang Yuanshan asked out of concern.
&Quot; hehe, itâs an ran whoâs too nervous. Itâs just an old problem. Itâs no big deal. &Quot; Su Yicheng said in a relaxed tone. He glanced at mo Fei from the corner of his eye, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
Mo Fei was speechless. He only looked at him and Anran, and his clenched fists tightened.
&Quot; then letâs not drink today. Letâs sit down and eat. The food here is really delicious. &Quot; Zhang Yuanshan said again. Today, he had to drag su Yicheng along no matter what. Otherwise, it would be too difficult to ask him out for a meal next time. He turned to Anran and said, â Xiaoxiao was just talking about Mrs. Su. Mrs. Su, Xiaoxiao, and Mo Fei have been classmates for so many years. Why donât you come over tonight and have a chat? â
Anran looked at su Yicheng with a troubled expression. She didnât want to stay, especially in front of mo Fei and Tong Xiaojie. She didnât want to have anything to do with these two people.
Su Yicheng naturally knew what she was thinking, so he nodded slightly at her, then turned to Zhang Yuanshan and said, â &Quot; youâre too kind, President Zhang, but I really canât do it tonight. Anran and I have something to do later, so it looks like weâll have to wait until next time for this meal. &Quot;
&Quot; uh, this ... &Quot; Zhang Yuanshan still wanted to say something, but he was directly interrupted by su Yicheng.
&Quot; how about this, President Zhang, Iâll pay for tonightâs meal. Next time, next time when youâre free, weâll call President Xiao to sit down and have a chat. &Quot; Su Yicheng said with a smile.
Seeing that he said so, Zhang Yuanshan didnât say anything more. &Quot; since Special Assistant su and Mrs. Su have something to do tonight, we canât force them. After all, business is more important. But as for this order, Special Assistant su is too polite. If you want to count, you can only count your meal on me. Special Assistant su can pay for it. &Quot;
&Quot; haha, Mr. Zhang, donât fight with me. Iâm the host here today. This restaurant belongs to my sister, so you donât have to be so polite with me. &Quot; Su Yicheng said.
âUh,â Zhang Yuanshan was stunned. He had not thought of this at all. As a result, he could no longer refuse and insist, so he laughed dryly and said, â âIf thatâs the case, then Iâll have to thank Special Assistant su first. Itâs a waste of money.â
Su Yicheng smiled gently. &Quot; I naturally have to take care of my own sister. &Quot;
Zhang Yuanshan smiled and nodded, but he had no intention of leaving.
Su Yicheng glanced at him, then turned his head and asked Anran in a gentle voice, â are you full? â
Anran nodded. &Quot; Iâm full. &Quot; In fact, they had almost finished eating just now. They just didnât expect to meet Tong Xiaojie here, nor did they expect her to call Zhang Yuanshan and Mo Fei out.
Upon hearing this, su Yicheng turned to Zhang Yuanshan and Mo Fei, who were standing aside, and said, â &Quot; President Zhang, President mo, you can continue. Anran and I still have something to do, so weâll be leaving first. &Quot;
âAlright, alright, go on with your work.â Zhang Yuanshan quickly responded with a smile, while mo Fei, who was standing next to her, stared straight at Anran, as if he was holding back something.
Su Yicheng nodded with a faint smile, took the bag from Anranâs seat, and then walked toward the counter while holding Anranâs hand.
After watching them pay the bill and leave the restaurant, Zhang Yuanshan turned around and was about to return to the private room. He said to mo Fei, â âLetâs go,â he said.
Mo Fei stared at the entrance of the restaurant. He could naturally hear what su Yicheng had just said, but he was unwilling to accept it, very unwilling, but no matter how unwilling he was, there was nothing he could do now. At first, he thought that su Yicheng was just a small employee of some company, and no matter how good his temperament was, he was just working for someone else. He could give her a safe and stable life, but he couldnât give her the best life. This was the result he came to after seeing him drive that car.
He had even thought that even if he was with Anran now, after half a year, as long as it was just half a year, he would definitely disregard everything and let her return to his side. However, he didnât expect su Yicheng to be the special Assistant of the mayor of Jiangcheng, nor did he expect that he had the powerful su family behind him! He had no confidence with such an identity.
Seeing that he did not move, Zhang Yuanshan called again, â could it be? â
Could it be that this dish had come back to his senses and nodded at him, saying, â âIâm going to the washroom.â As he spoke, he headed straight for the washroom. At this moment, he needed to calm himself down. Otherwise, he didnât know how to face Tong Xiaojie, who was in the private room!
