Manager Xue was talking about the situation of the man he introduced. Du Miaoshu was more confused than if she had been hit by a lightning strike of 100,000 volts. So what, what did Manager Xue say about the man who had the same name and age as him?
He stared at Manager Xue blankly for a few seconds and murmured to himself: "Director Xue, it turns out there is someone with the same name as you in our company."
"No." Xue Yunlang gave an extremely positive reply: "There is no one with the same name as me in the company. I am talking about myself."
"You...introduce yourself to your girlfriend? Introduce yourself?" Du Miaoshu's mind was so confused that she couldn't think. What she said was just an instinctive reaction.
"Actually, I have been chasing you, haven't you noticed?" Miss Du was stunned, and Xue Yunlang could only confess: "I was there on the day of your interview, and I noticed you then, and later you joined the company as an intern.
, I started chasing you, you maybe... didn’t feel it, right?"
Hum - Du Miaoshu's mind became even more confused, her eyes widened, she looked at Manager Xue in disbelief, and she stuttered when she spoke: "You...you...are you...chasing me? You...you...let's eat...walk,
Aren’t they all talking about...about work?”
"Yes, I have been chasing you, maybe because I expressed it more implicitly. You think I am looking for you because of work. In fact, half of the meetings with you to discuss work are excuses. Otherwise, what reason should I use to go there?
Want to chat with you or invite you to dinner?"
Xue Yunlang looked at the girl with soft eyes. Everyone in the company could see that he was looking at her. Maybe this silly girl was the only one who couldn't feel that he was chasing her.
Du Miaoshu thought that maybe the sun was too strong and she had a heat stroke, so she was a little dizzy. She turned her neck blankly and looked left and right, then touched her forehead and the back of her head, and muttered: "It must be the wrong way to open it."
,Yes, that must be the case!”
The usually cheerful and neat girl became stupid and dumb. Xue Yunlang looked at her confused look and smiled so hard that the corners of his mouth curled up, and his heart felt soft.
"Xiao Du, what are you talking about?"
Pulled away by the voice, Du Miaoshu came out of her dazed state and stared at Manager Xue again, then looked at the place where the sun was shining: "I think I may have been in the sun too much, which made me dizzy and brain-dry, so I had auditory hallucinations."
, I heard you say strange things."
Well, this is very Ah Q!
The girl's way and appearance of escaping were very cute, and Xue Yunlang was so amused that he almost laughed out loud: "You didn't have heatstroke, and I didn't say anything weird. What I said was serious, or should I say, I
I am confessing my love to you."
Du Miaoshu was struck by a strong thunder bomb again. She didn't jump up in shock, but she suddenly moved back more than a foot with a look of panic on her face: "Director Xue, don't joke around. Many girls in the company like you. This
If someone hears it, I will not become a public enemy."
The girl mentioned that the women in the company liked her, and Xue Yunlang's eyes showed a bit of sarcasm: "Miaomiao, you are too naive, they don't really like me, they use me as a shield to reject the pursuit of other young people.
Anyone with more seniority in the company knows that I have no parents or any property, and am an orphan living in my uncle's house. Any girl with more serious thoughts will not really seek marriage like me, and will only treat me as a backup.
, when they are pursued by a man they don't like or look down on, they use me to say they like me, so that others can give up.
I'm just a scapegoat. Otherwise, why would I always be alone except for work-related interactions with my colleagues? Think about it, have you ever seen me date alone with any of the young women in the company?"
"..." Du Miaoshu thought for a while, and it was true that she had never seen Xue Yunlang and a young female person having sex alone before spending time together under the moonlight.
Therefore, she didn't understand why Director Xue fell in love with her. She was silent for a moment and then slowly explained: "Thank you for your high opinion of me. I think we... are not suitable because of my family's situation.
I won’t consider getting married before I’m thirty.”
"Is it because of your family situation that you don't talk about relationships, or that you can't accept me as a person, and that I am a lonely person without the help of my elders when necessary?" Xue Yunlang did not give up.
"It has nothing to do with your personal and family situation. It's just that it's not suitable for me to talk about personal issues in the past few years. My family owes my deskmate money, although my deskmate is not short of money. I said we will wait until our family is financially stable in the future.
However, my deskmate’s money belongs to her, and my family cannot take it seriously. I will send my brother to study first, and when he graduates, the two siblings will work hard to save money together. After paying back the money, it will not be too late for each of us to start a family."
Le Xiaoniu said that she did not have to worry about repaying the money, and that she and her brother should get married and start a business first, and then pay back later when they had enough money. However, Du Miaoshu and her family members all felt that they should be kind and should save money to pay Le Xiaoniu back.
Xue Yunlang frowned slightly and relaxed: "I knew about your family's situation last year. You said that your family owed your deskmate 379,000.
I don't think the money is a problem. If you don't accept me as a person, we can try to get along. If we get along well, we can get married first, and then we can save money to pay off the debt together.
Part of your monthly salary will be given to your brother and to subsidize the two elders in the family. Half of my salary will be used for family living expenses. We can also save a little money every month. Plus my previous savings, as long as I save another
The money can be paid off in two years. After paying off the money, we will save money for the down payment to buy a house and slowly pay off the mortgage."
Manager Xue thought about the future and spoke very beautifully. Du Miaoshu's eyes widened and she stuttered again: "You...you...have even planned the future?"
"Yes," Xue Yunlang nodded: "When I first saw you, I thought you were very good, optimistic and cheerful, proactive, tough and self-reliant, with a simple mind and not so many twists and turns.
My native family is not happy, and I have suffered and been wronged. Therefore, I hope that I can find a simple-minded girl to marry and live a simple life in the future.
When I met you, I felt like I was in love with you. Later, after getting in touch with you, I felt that being with you was very easy. When I decided to pursue you, I had already planned the future. I wanted to be with you forever, not just have a fruitless relationship.
Actually, I knew you were Fangxian Leyun's deskmate, and before you noticed that I was chasing you, I considered giving up because I was afraid that if we really fell in love, others would say that I wanted to get in touch with your deskmate.
I just chased you because my purpose was not pure."
"Then... why didn't you give up?" Du Miaoshu asked innocently.
"I gave up for a while. During that time, didn't I not see you for four months in a row?"
It's a pity that no matter how hard I hide, I still want to be close to you every time I see you back at the company.
The idea of giving up cannot be overcome by my heart. I have lost to my own heart. There is nothing wrong with following my heart. I think I can still work hard, so I have worked hard until now.
You stupid girl is too slow. Everyone in the company knows that I am chasing you, but you don't know it yourself. I think it's better for me to do it myself.
If there is a hundred steps between us, there are ninety-nine steps to go. As long as you don’t hate me and my family background, I will continue to move forward and cross the ninety-nine steps to stand in front of you.
."
Du Miaoshu listened silently and heard Manager Xue say that he had given up for a while. She also thought about it carefully and found that it was indeed the case. In the few months since her father was cured by Le Xiaoniu, Manager Xue often disappeared and occasionally met her.
He also comes and goes in a hurry.
During that time, she thought that Director Xue was too busy with work to have time to chat with others.
After a long time of fussing, it turned out that he was hiding from someone.
She didn't know if she didn't tell her. After being singled out, and thinking about the past, Du Miaoshu also came back to her senses. Not to mention, Manager Xue seemed to treat her differently.
Every time he saw her, as long as he was not discussing work with a boss-level figure, he would definitely greet her with a gentle smile and tone.
Even if he was originally serious or harsh when talking to his colleagues, when he saw her, his tone would soften, a smile would appear on his face, and he would take the time to ask her what she wanted from him.
Recalling all the details and hearing the word "silly girl" again, Du Miaoshu hugged her head and shrank into an ostrich. It was so embarrassing, wasn't it?
The girl held her head and looked shameless. Xue Yunlang reached out and rubbed her head: "Shu Shu, I'm not in a hurry for the result. We can get along with each other for a while before you make a decision."
Being touched on the head, Du Miaoshu's back stiffened, and she suddenly raised her head: "What did you call me?"
"Shu Shu, I've heard someone call you that, it sounds nice." Xue Yunlang smiled and rubbed the girl's head again before reluctantly taking it back. The girl's hair was very soft, and it felt as good as he imagined.
"Don't call her by that name, it's what my family calls her." Du Miaoshu's face turned red. Her father and mother always liked Shu Shu, and sometimes people mistakenly thought they were calling her "uncle".
"Then, my name is Miaomiao? I call you Miaomiao in private, and Xiaodu in the company?"
"Don't call me Miaomiao, it sounds like you are calling a cat." Du Miaoshu wanted to find a crack in the ground to find Miaomiao. It sounded like "meow" when calling a cat.
"That's still called Shushu, Shushu, Shushu, Jingnu Qishu, she is as beautiful as you." Xue Yun's eyes were soft and he murmured a few times in a low voice.
His tone was so intimate that people couldn't bear to refuse. Du Miaoshu stared, unable to make up her mind to protest, let alone get angry.
Just like Le Xiaoniu always jokingly calls her "little belly", every time she yells that she is not allowed to scream, she just yells, and there is nothing Le Xiaoniu can do.
After staring for a few times, he reacted belatedly: "Hey, I haven't said that I agree with the partner yet, why do you look like you're about to take office?"
"When I asked you for your opinion, but you didn't refuse directly, I took it as your acquiescence to be with me for a while. What should I do if I don't take the initiative to be more enthusiastic and you can't feel it?"
"I..." Du Miaoshu was speechless. She was too shocked before, her mind was in a mess and she couldn't react.
In fact, her mind is still in a mess right now and she has no clear emotions.
One thing cannot be denied. It is easier to get along with Director Xue and you don't feel depressed. Moreover, his credibility is very good. If there is something that needs to be kept confidential, he knows it and it will not be known to a third party from him.
"I need some time to think about it." She had not considered personal feelings in the past few years. Manager Xue's confession came too suddenly, and she felt that she needed to ask Le Xiaoniu to help analyze it.
"Well, Shu Shu, please think about it slowly. We will still get along as before." Xue Yunlang had a smile in his eyes. The girl he liked was so straightforward and honest. When she said that she was considering it, she was considering it seriously and would not find any random excuses.
Perfunctory.
Du Miaoshu said she would consider it, and did not reject Manager Xue's suggestion to get along as usual. She put aside the unexpected incident of confession for the time being, hugged a bag of pickled pepper chicken feet, and ate snacks happily.
While she was nibbling, she did not forget to shout that the pickled pepper chicken feet made by the girl at the same table at home was the most delicious snack in the world. She was greedy for the snacks made by the girl again.
Xue Yunlang smiled as he watched the girl nibbling snacks and listened to her comments about which ones were delicious. He felt at peace. This was his ideal life. He could live a simple life and travel with the girl he liked, without having to deliberately create romance.
, just be simple and comfortable.
After staying at the top of the mountain for more than an hour, the sun became stronger and stronger, and the two of them went down the mountain together.
On the way, Xue Yunlang suggested that he and Du Xiaodi have a meal together and go sightseeing at Han University's scenic spots in the afternoon. Du, who had not been with his brother for two weeks, happily agreed.
Du Xiaodi was working hard in the school library. When he received a call from his sister saying that she was coming to school, he rushed to make a reservation at the restaurant that his sister said.
When he found the place, he saw his sister sitting at the same table with a tall and steady handsome man. He was almost shocked and ran over to say hello. After sitting down, he stared at his sister and the young man.
Du Miaoshu was very uncomfortable with her brother's gaze. Xue Yunlang helped her out: "Brother Du, I am your sister's colleague. I have been working in Han City for a few years and have been too busy to visit the local scenic spots. I heard that you are in Han
Dashu, your sister is here to spend the weekend with you again today, and I followed you along the way. I would like to ask you and your sister to be my guides and go to the cherry blossom avenue on campus in the afternoon. Do you have time?"
"Yes." Du Xiaodi's hair stood up when he heard that the handsome guy was his sister's colleague. It is still necessary for him to build a good relationship with his sister's colleague.
Manager Xue easily made her brother let down his guard. Du Shushu wanted to cover her face. Her brother was as innocent as she was.
Xue Yunlang and Du Miaoshu ordered a few dishes first, and when Du Xiaodi came, they asked him to read the menu. Du Xiaodi saw that his sister and her colleagues had ordered enough dishes, so they didn't add any more.
The dishes were delivered quickly, and one of them was the restaurant's famous dish, braised pig's trotters.
The three of them ate slowly, Xue Yunlang would bring up the topic, and they had a pleasant chat with Du Xiaodi. After the meal, they went to a beverage shop to sit for a while before going for a walk and visiting Cherry Blossom Avenue.
Du Xiaodi became more and more interested in chatting with people, and his title changed from Mr. Xue to Brother Xue.
Du Miaoshu, who was watching the whole process, was stunned.
The three of them walked around the scenic spot in the afternoon, returned home happily in the evening, and had dinner together.
When leaving, Xue Yunlang didn't let Du Xiaodi send her off. He patted his chest and promised that he would send her sister back safely. He also exchanged contact information with Du Xiaodi, saying that when his sister was sent to the company dormitory, he would send him a message asking him to
rest assured.
Du Xiaodi was tricked into having his contact information without knowing it, and he thought Brother Xue was a very reliable person.
