Gu Ruolan quietly took in Xiao Xixi's astonished expression. She couldn't help but smile to herself, how could an inexperienced little girl be her opponent. After thinking about it, a flawless smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, generous and affectionate.
In a tone of voice, he said: "No, I have an appointment for lunch. You guys have a good meal."
After saying that, she took the document and walked out, closing the door behind her.
Xiao Xixi heard something strange in her words, but she couldn't tell where it was. In short, she felt that this person was not simple.
Yan Rui didn't notice the rapid mental activities of the two women at all. He still focused his attention back on Xiao Xixi, and said in a petting tone: "Xixi, what do you want to eat for lunch?"
Xiao Xixi was pulled back from her thoughts, but she ran out of ideas for a moment and replied smoothly: "Brother Rui decides today, and I can do it."
Sitting in Yan Rui's car, Xiao Xixi didn't know why, but she was more suspicious of Gu Ruolan than interested in food. With several question marks in her little head, she looked out the window thoughtfully.
Yan Rui saw that she was silent all the way, which was different from usual, so he couldn't help but ask: "Xixi, what are you thinking about?"
Xiao Xixi turned her face and looked at him, so she just asked. She closed her mouth and opened it again: "Brother Rui, um... Miss Gu Ruolan, when did you come to your company?"
Yan Rui replied: "She has been helping in the company since the last time the three of us had dinner together." He was a little stunned. He didn't expect Xiao Xixi to ask such a question. She has always cared little about anyone or anything.
"Oh." Xiao Xixi replied softly, "Then - how is she?"
"Her?" Yan Rui never expected that she would ask such a question, "She is a nice person. She graduated from Yale University with a law degree. She is very popular and helps the company a lot. Nowadays, there are few people like her who are both talented and beautiful.
The girl. I plan to let her work as a lawyer in the company for a long time. Xixi, what can I do?"
Xiao Xixi quickly shook her head. In fact, it was none of her business what she did? Curiosity killed the cat.
*** After Gu Ruolan walked out of Yan Rui's office as if nothing had happened, as soon as he returned to his legal department office, he picked up the phone briskly and dialed Zhong Yixuan's number, his tone full of joking: "Hey,
Yi Xuan, your Miss Xixi—has come to our company’s prince."
When Zhong Yixuan heard this on the other end of the phone, he couldn't help but feel furious, but he still suppressed his anger and asked, "What did she do in the past?"
"Cinderella, of course she wants to be with the prince." Gu Ruolan said deliberately teasingly. She knew that Zhong Yixuan must be extremely angry after hearing this. After a few seconds, she returned to her serious tone.
, "Okay, no more kidding. She doesn't like him."
"How do you know?" Zhong Yixuan asked quickly, was it a false alarm?
"Women understand women best." Gu Ruolan chuckled, "But she seems to be in love."
"What?!" Zhong Yixuan became nervous again, "What you said this time was also a joke, right?"
"I guess." Gu Ruolan replied. She could tell the woman's thoughts and eyes at a glance. However, what she didn't know was that Xiao Xixi was suddenly unaware of it.
Zhong Yixuan on the other end almost jumped up when he heard this. He couldn't help but said to the phone: "You know I waited for so long before I finally came back to see her. Instead, she became someone else's bag? You think?
Don’t even think about it!”
Gu Ruolan knew that Zhong Yixuan would definitely have a violent reaction when he heard her words. This was not surprising at all. Indeed, she could hardly wait any longer.
Playing lurking is not what she really wants to do. The sooner the whole plan is implemented, the more likely she will be able to return to Situ Leiyan as soon as possible.
However, at the moment, she felt that Xiao Xixi's mind was not on Yan Rui, but probably on Situ Leiyan. As for Situ Leiyan, she knew that he was no longer what he was now, and she was not sure whether he also liked her.
If Situ Leiyan fell in love with Xiao Xixi... Gu Ruolan really didn't want to think about it, but she still calmed down and speculated rationally. If the two of them fell in love, wouldn't she have nothing to do with it?
There's a chance.
Therefore, Gu Ruolan didn't want to wait a moment longer. If she waited any longer, she wouldn't be able to bear it.
She loved Situ Leiyan, even if she had to leave him every day.
It was precisely because she loved him that she learned to hide, learn to be patient, and learned many things that made her what she is today.
"Yixuan, we have a dinner planned the night after tomorrow." Gu Ruolan hung up the phone, a proud smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, as if she was waiting for something good to happen.
***I have to say that Xiao Xixi and Yan Rui’s meal was not very tasty. She took the spoon in her hand and absentmindedly scooped up a spoonful of soup, poured it into the bowl, and scooped it up again without even noticing it.
Repeatedly everywhere.
"What's wrong, Xixi, no appetite?" Yan Rui asked when he saw her abnormality. Over the years, almost nothing had affected her.
"Oh, it's okay." Xiao Xixi answered calmly. She didn't know why, but she felt uncomfortable when seeing Gu Ruolan. She always felt like something was going to happen.
In fact, she was smiling at herself, but she had a huge sense of distance, and the smile seemed to push her away.
Although they had met at a banquet before, she knew that she and Situ Leiyan had a story and a past. As she thought about it, she felt sad in her heart. The other women were the same, but Gu Ruolan was the only one who had a crush on Situ Leiyan.
Flame is different.
He didn't care about other people, but he had a grudge against Gu Ruolan.
She said she didn't want to do these things, but she couldn't help it. Gu Ruolan was obviously familiar with the demon Zhong Yixuan, and now he was guarding Brother Rui, as if he was lurking.
"Xixi, I didn't tell you that Ruichen Company has been planning to sign a contract with Situ Yatai, and has been busy with it a while ago. The hard work pays off, and it will be signed tomorrow. I haven't had time to tell you, isn't it very...
Surprised?" Yan Rui squinted his eyes to see Xiao Xixi's reaction.
"Ah?" Xiao Xixi was really surprised, "I never heard him mention it!" Thinking of Situ Leiyan's gloomy face, Xiao Xixi recalled that she had never heard him mention it. However, thinking about it carefully, he was right at all.
She didn't know that she knew Yan Rui, and she didn't know that Yan Rui was the brother Rui she said she was talking about.
Thinking of this, he raised his head and smiled: "But I don't blame him - you are really a powerful combination!"
Yan Rui frowned slightly at this time. She called Situ Leiyan "him" so naturally. It was so natural that they were like family members who got along day and night, casually talking about him and him.
The whole world felt fearful of the majestic Situ Leiyan, but she felt no such feeling at all. Could it be... Yan Rui's heart tightened.
No, this is the scene he least wants to see.
He couldn't wait any longer. In the past, Yan Rui always felt that because Xiao Xixi was still young and immature, he couldn't feel his heart, but now he waits at a loss and easily loses opportunities.
But she is his most precious thing in this world.
Then, it's time to take action.
Looking at Xiao Xixi in front of her, her delicate face looks whiter and whiter today, like a white porcelain doll. Under the thick eyelashes, her big eyes are lowered. Her hair is fluffy and spread naturally, with only a delicate small rhinestone hairpin pinned on it.
.When he looked up and saw her crystal clear eyes, he couldn't help but feel his heart beating faster.
Xiao Xixi was not aware of Yan Rui's thoughts at all. She still took a big sip of juice through a straw and smiled nonchalantly.
A shallow smile, but it hit Yan Rui's heart directly. The shock was his biggest feeling.
He stared into Xiao Xixi's eyes and asked seriously: "Xixi, do you... have someone you like?"
This question made Xiao Xixi choke and cough without swallowing a mouthful of juice, which suddenly broke the quiet and gentle atmosphere between the two. She coughed until her face turned a little red, and said: "Brother Rui... cough cough... you
Why do you suddenly... well, suddenly ask such a question?"
Seeing that she was coughing badly, Yan Rui patted her back nervously, hoping that she would feel better. But he still took her question very seriously and continued to ask: "Is there any?"
Xiao Xixi's cough finally calmed down. She was wondering why he suddenly asked such a question and answered without hesitation: "No."
She was curious, she was obviously single, and Yan Rui knew it too.
