An Rui looked at the man who was already a head taller than her and her gaze swept past his face.

Fair, delicate, beautiful face, handsome eyes, refined and clean.

An Rui had developed in the entertainment industry and had seen many handsome men. She was already immune to handsome men.

However, the scholarly and elegant aura Zhou Li exuded made people unconsciously look at him.

He had changed a lot in four years.

From a shy boy, he had become an attractive man.

An Rui smiled and reached out her hand to him. “When did you come back? I should call you Dr Zhou now, right? Which hospital do you work at?”

The moment she said it, An Rui realized that she had asked several questions.

Zhou Li reached out his hand and shook An Rui’s hand gently in a gentlemanly manner, answering her patiently.

“I just came back a month ago and was working in the Orthopedics department of the Royal Hospital. Because I had a lot of work to do, I didn’t have time to contact my old classmate.”

His voice was gentle and calm, like a stream flowing in the forest, able to calm people’s uneasiness.

An Rui realized that after he lost his immaturity, he had a maturity and reservedness that exceeded his age.

Compared to her happiness and excitement at seeing her old classmate, he was calm and did not show any of his emotions.

But it did not give people a cold feeling.

For such a doctor to treat a patient, the patient should feel at ease!

An Rui gave Zhou Li a thumbs up. “You’re indeed a genius. I heard that you completed your master’s degree in five years.”

“You flatter me.” Zhou Li smiled faintly.

An Rui realized that she was wearing his jacket. She was only wearing a nightgown when she ran out earlier and there was nothing inside. When she regained her senses, she felt awkward and embarrassed.

Although she was a C-lister, if she really went to the streets dressed like this, she would definitely be treated as a shameless and crazy woman!

“Oh, Dr Zhou lives here too?”

Zhou Li nodded and pointed at the apartment opposite An Rui. “Stay there.”

“It’s such a coincidence. You live opposite me and I just moved here.” An Rui adjusted the jacket on her shoulders and said awkwardly, “There was a blackout when I was showering and I was a little afraid so I rushed out.”

“Did you hit anything?”

“No.”

Zhou Li sent An Rui to the door of the apartment. An Rui stood by the door and waved at him. “Go in quickly. I’ll return your jacket tomorrow.”

“It’s alright, you don’t have to shower.”

Under An Rui’s urging, Zhou Li turned and walked toward the apartment opposite.

Zhou Li took out his key and opened the door. Before he went in, he looked back.

An Rui stood at the door, looking at him quietly.

Zhou Li’s dark eyes under the lenses flashed and he smiled at her. “If you’re afraid, do you want to come over and sit with me? I haven’t had dinner and am preparing to cook a bowl of noodles. Do you want to come?”

An Rui immediately nodded. “Okay, okay.”

Although she had not seen him for four years and his aura had changed a lot, he was still the clean and gentle boy in her memory.

His character was trustworthy!

“I’ll go back to my room to change first. I’ll come back later.”

Zhou Li hummed and entered the apartment. The door was open.

Zhou Li lived opposite, which made An Rui less timid.

Picking up her phone, she went to the bedroom to change into a dress.

After drying her hair, she sat in front of the dressing table to apply skin care products, preparing to put on exquisite makeup. Halfway through, she ran into the bathroom to wash up.

What was she doing?

He was just an old classmate she had not seen for a long time. She only had pure admiration for him. Why did she have to put on makeup and face him?

Besides, it was not like he did not know what she looked like!

An Rui patted her face and went to the apartment opposite after tidying her hair.

She had just reached the door when she smelled the fragrance of fried eggs and bacon.

Girls who worked hard in the entertainment industry had to maintain a good figure at all times and rarely ate noodles.

An Rui could not remember how long she had not eaten noodles.

There were emergency lights in the living room and it looked like there was no blackout.

There were two candles on the wooden table in the dining room. An Rui walked over and stood at the kitchen door.

Hearing the sound, Zhou Li turned back to look at her. “I’m almost done.”

“There’s no rush.”

Zhou Li had changed his clothes. He was wearing a long white t-shirt and dark-colored casual pants. He wore a gray apron and was busy in front of the kitchen counter, looking like he was really busy.

An Rui had never been to the kitchen since she was young. She did not know how to cook at all.

In the past two years, she had eaten takeout the most, or custom-made nutritious meals.

She rarely cooked herself.

She felt that it was a little magical to suddenly see a man who was so good at cooking.

Soon, Zhou Li brought two bowls of noodles to the dining room.

There were eggs, bacon, vegetables, and no coriander or onions in her bowl.

There was one in his bowl.

An Rui was a little surprised. “You know that I don’t eat coriander and onions?”

“You treated me to noodles once at Uncle Zhou’s restaurant.”

“You have a good memory.”

Although it was ordinary egg noodles, he fried the eggs until they were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The bacon was also fried just right. She finished the bowl of noodles and even drank a few mouthfuls of soup.

When she was almost done, she seemed to have remembered that female celebrities could not eat too much and jumped up from the chair.

“Oh no!” An Rui hit her head.

Zhou Li finished eating first. He heated a glass of milk for her and seeing her hitting her head, he asked, “What’s wrong?”

“I’m stuffed. I’ll definitely gain weight.”

Zhou Li smiled. “It’s alright to have a meal occasionally.” He handed her the milk.

An Rui took a sip of milk and was about to say something when an auntie suddenly came over. “Is Dr Zhou here? My wife suddenly fainted. Help me take a look.”

“Alright.” Zhou Li glanced at An Rui, his voice gentle. “Just close the door for me before you go home.” With that said, he left with the auntie hurriedly.

An Rui stood in the dining room for a while. She cleared the table and took the bowl to the kitchen. She could not eat other people’s food for free and had to help clean the bowl before leaving.

An Rui wanted to help out of kindness, but she broke both bowls.

She touched her forehead and looked at the sky speechlessly.

She was really clumsy when it came to housework.

After keeping the shard and leaving a note, she returned to the apartment opposite.

Before long, the call came.

An Rui was woken up by Xiaohe’s phone ringing. “Sister Ruirui, you’re not out yet? We’re going to Ming’an Company!”

“Get up immediately!”

Ming’an Company was located in the CBD center and was one of the more popular online game companies in the past two years.

An Rui got out of the car and was about to go in when someone called her from behind.

“Ruirui.”

An Rui turned around in confusion and saw a tall figure getting off a Lamborghini sports car.

Shen Mingxiu.
