Chapter 1818: You’re Going to Stand Me Up?
“… I won’t feel well.” Xu Baohan suddenly coughed behind his fist, lowering his head. “After all, I’m now a suitor who has high expectations for you.”
Those words seemed to pierce through the air into her heart. It didn’t hurt, but it was itchy.
An Lan pinched her thigh, telling herself to calm down.
Her previous relationship failed because she had entered it without knowing the other party well. This time, she must control herself. After all, she had only had one meal with him.
Don’t lose your head over sweet words and a handsome face.
“I’ve heard this kind of words many times,” An Lan said with a smile. “I’ve seen the world, so I always judge a person by his action.”
“Of course,” Xu Baohan nodded in agreement. “It’s still early, why don’t we…watch a movie together?”
An Lan thought about it for a while. She didn’t mind spending more time with Xu Baohan. “What movies do you like?”
Speaking of movies, the last time she saw one was two months ago with Li Shuang.
Xu Baohan looked blank. “Are there any good movies recently? I haven’t been to a movie theater in three years.”
“…”
She hadn’t watched a movie for two months, but he hadn’t done it for three years. It seemed he was more pathetic than she was.
“Then what movies did you watch with your ex-girlfriend?” An Lan asked.
“… I don’t know.” Xu Baohan frowned. “I don’t remember.”
An Lan smiled. Regardless of whether this answer was true or not, she was quite satisfied. “Let’s see what movies are on recently.”
As she spoke, she turned on an app on her cell phone. Then Xiao Si’s call came in.
She had a feeling that her plans to watch a movie tonight would be ruined. After all, ever since Xiao Si fell in love, he didn’t hang out with friends without a good reason.
“Hello, Mr. Xiao…”
“An Lan, have you had supper? Remember once I told you that Nuanyi and I are going to have a prenup? Today she came to my place so I’d like you to come over and discuss about it with us,” Xiao Si said cheerfully. Obviously he was in a good mood.
“Tonight?” An Lan glanced at Xu Baohan. “Can’t we do it another day?”
“No, she’s been quite busy recently. We’re getting married soon,” Xiao Si said in a low voice. “You’re my lawyer, I’m telling you, no matter what Nuanyi brings up later, you must agree. If it’s something I can’t do, we’ll figure out a way to deal with it later.”
“…”
Did he mean that he was willing to give Nuanyi all he had if she asked?
An Lan sighed. Good men nowadays were practically extinct, but she had met several in her life , so every time she was about to give up, she’d think of them and find hope to continue.
“Okay, I’ll come over in a while.”
After she ended the call, Xu Baohan’s handsome face darkened with disappointment since he had heard her words. “You’re going to stand me up?”
“No, I’m not going to stand you up,” An Lan said in all seriousness. “Because we only started talking about watching a movie four or five minutes ago and we didn’t even decide what we were going to watch yet.”
“You’re going to go back on your word after standing me up?” Xu Baohan raised an eyebrow.
An LAN looked at him for a while and gave in in resignation. “I can’t help it. Xiao Si is my bread and butter and one of my big clients. I must go and see him when he asks me to.”
“What if he wants you to go and see him on the day of our wedding?” Xu Baohan’s brows were furrowed so tightly that it could kill a fly. He didn’t like her using the term “bread and butter” to describe another man.
