She opened the door and was about to walk out.
“Stop!” Xu Jialu’s eyes were cold. He zipped up and walked slowly toward her with his long legs.
Su Lan Xu’s hand was holding the cold metal. When she heard the footsteps behind her, she lowered her head and wished she could find a hole to hide in.
Xu Jialu walked behind her and lowered his head to whisper into her ear, ” does Mr. Fang know that Mrs. Fang likes to go into the men’s room to see men so much? ”
He didn’t know if it was his words that made su lanxu’s ears heat up or if it was that warm breeze that was drilling into her ears, but she subconsciously turned around …
Xu Jialu probably didn’t expect her sudden big move and didn’t have time to retreat.
When su lanxu turned around, he was too close to her, and her soft lips brushed past his cheek.
For a moment, the two of them were stunned, and the atmosphere became strange.
Su lanxu was like a frightened little rabbit. Her back was pressed tightly against the door. She blinked her almond-shaped eyes and apologized in a panic and uneasiness, ” s-sorry … &Quot;
She did not know why she had to apologize!
Xu Jialu only felt that the place where her lips ” kissed ” was like static electricity. He squinted his eyes and his throat couldn’t help but tighten.
“This is a misunderstanding. I didn’t mean to barge in.” Su lanxu explained in a panic. Her voice was trembling.
Xu Jialu raised his thick eyebrows slightly. &Quot; so you don’t like to look at men, but you like to look at me. &Quot;
“?”Su lanxu’s head was full of question marks. She explained again, ” I’m not. I really didn’t … You … &Quot;
Xu Jialu didn’t listen to her explanation. His gaze fell on her finger, and his Adam’s apple rolled as he sneered, ” huh, why aren’t you wearing the diamond ring? ”
Subconsciously, su lanxu hid her hand behind her back and pursed her lips without saying a word.
“Su Lan Xu, I used to think that you were crazy. I didn’t expect you to be so stupid.” Xu Jialu’s brows were tightly knitted, mixed with coldness and irritation. &Quot; I told you so much yesterday, but it was all for nothing, wasn’t it?! &Quot;
Su lanxu retorted weakly, ” he said that he didn’t know about Tao Tingsong’s matter. He also promised me that he wouldn’t hang out with them often in the future. &Quot;
&Quot; you believe everything he says? do you have a brain for love? ” Xu Jialu said sarcastically.
Su lanxu was silent for a moment, as if she was trying to hold back something. In the end, she couldn’t help but question him, ” &Quot; I just want to be with the person I like. I want someone to love me properly. How am I crazy about love? ”
“Is it because I lied to you that I’m a heinous sinner who doesn’t even have the right to be loved? Xu Jialu, when will you let go of your prejudice and take a good look at me? have I ever done anything to hurt Youyou? Open your eyes and see that I didn’t hurt Yun Youwei. I didn’t hurt anyone!”
She really didn’t hurt anyone, so why did she have to bear with his prejudice?
Why did she have to endure his mockery again and again when she just wanted to be with the person she liked?
Xu Jialu was silent and stared at her with his Phoenix eyes.
After a while, he smirked and said, ” whatever you want. Don’t expect anyone to care for you when you cry Later! &Quot;
With that, he pushed her away and left without even going to the toilet.
Su lanxu turned around and looked at his tall and straight back. Her fingers dug into her palm.
……
When Lin Wanying saw Xu Jialu return, she stood up and said, ” “Vice President Xu, are there any other questions?”
Xu Jialu sat down without saying anything. He picked up the soda beside him, unscrewed the cap, and drank half a bottle. The cold water seemed to suppress the anger in his heart and the inexplicable heat in his body.
Lin Wanying saw that his expression was off and stood by the side without saying a word, maintaining her silence.
Xu Jialu lowered his long eyelashes to hide the fleeting emotions in his eyes. He only felt an itch on his cheek where she had touched him.
It was so itchy that his entire body felt uncomfortable.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Lin Wanying’s straight and slender legs. He raised his eyes to size her up and said, ” “You’re still single?”
Lin Wanying was slightly taken aback. She didn’t understand why he was asking this, but she still nodded and admitted, ” yes. &Quot;
“Do you want to find a boyfriend?”
Lin Wanying finally reacted. &Quot; you want to introduce someone to me? ”
“Yes.” Xu Jialu nodded. &Quot; what do you think about me being your boyfriend? ”
Lin Wanying’s eyes froze. &Quot; is Vice President Xu joking with me? ”
“I’m serious,” Xu Jialu raised his chin and stared at her with his Phoenix eyes. &Quot; I want to be in a relationship. You look good. Do you want to try it out with me? ”
Lin Wanying remained silent and did not answer.
Seeing that she didn’t respond, Xu Jialu got up and said, ” “It’s fine if you’re not willing, just pretend I didn’t say anything.”
“I’m willing to.” Lin Wanying answered without hesitation.
Xu Jialu was a little surprised. &Quot; I’ll make things ugly first. I’m not a 24-hour boyfriend. Don’t even think about controlling me. There’s only one person in the world who can control me, and it’s definitely not you. As for whether we’ll get married in the future, we’ll talk about it later.”
The only person in the world who could control him was his sister, Xu Youyou!
Lin Wanying smiled faintly. &Quot; I don’t care about you, but I hope you won’t interfere with my work. Don’t expect me to be your girlfriend who cares about you 24 hours a day. &Quot;
Xu Jialu was very satisfied with her reaction. &Quot; very good, then from this moment on, you are my girlfriend. &Quot;
Lin Wanying smiled and nodded. &Quot; okay, Vice President Xu. &Quot;
“Since you’re my girlfriend, don’t call me Vice President Xu.” Xu Jialu frowned and opened his thin lips. &Quot; Xu Jialu, Jialu, do as you please. &Quot;
Lin Wanying hesitated for a moment and called out, ” Xu Jialu. &Quot;
Xu Jialu nodded in satisfaction. &Quot; alright, you can go back to your work. I’m leaving. &Quot;
“Alright, goodbye.” Lin Wanying sent him out.
After Xu Jialu left, Lin Wanying went to the front desk and asked where miss su was!
“Miss su just left, but she looked like she was out of her mind. She didn’t seem too happy,” the receptionist said.
Lin Wanying lowered her gaze and pondered. She thought of something and could not help but laugh.
“Lin Gong, what are you laughing at?” the receptionist was puzzled.
Lin Wanying looked up. She was in a good mood, and her eyes brightened up. &Quot; I’m laughing at some people who claim to be smart but can’t even see their own hearts clearly. &Quot;
“Ah?” The receptionist had just graduated and had no experience in relationships, so she naturally didn’t understand what she was saying.
Lin Wanying stopped smiling. &Quot; it’s nothing. You’ll understand in the future. Just focus on your work first. &Quot;
……
Su lanxu had handed the entire renovation to Lin Wanying without any suspicion.
Lin Wanying did not disappoint her. She personally monitored the renovation progress and caught up with the previously delayed progress.
Fang Yi had been treating her even better recently. After the car was repaired, he would drive it back. As long as it wasn’t working hours, he would personally send su lanxu wherever she wanted to go.
Sometimes, su lanxu wanted to eat supper in the middle of the night and was too lazy to order takeaway. He would buy it himself and deliver it.
He would also bring su lanxu to his colleagues ‘gatherings and introduce her to everyone as his fiancée!
Everyone envied them for being a model couple and praised her for finding a good husband. Fang Yi would take her with him wherever he went.
This included attending an economic ball.
The party was held at a resort in the scenic Area. Su lanxu didn’t want to come at first, but Fang Yi kept persuading her to come. He said that after the party, they would stay here for the night and have fun the next day before returning.
Su lanxu thought about how they hadn’t gone on a holiday together for a long time and nodded in agreement.
She just didn’t expect Xu Jialu to be invited to this party.
