The documents that had been scattered on the ground had already been picked up and returned to Shen Tuqing's hands.
Xu Tonglu also sat back down and fastened his seat belt again.
His eyes were still on Shen Tuqing's face next to him.
The shiny black hair covered her face, but still could not completely block her slightly red cheeks.
She seemed to be looking down at the document in her hand, but her attention was obviously not as focused as before. She couldn't help but glance at Xu Tonglu next to her out of the corner of her eye.
But Xu Tonglu didn't know how to restrain his gaze at all. He just kept staring at her with a smile on his face.
It made her feel uncomfortable all over, and finally, she couldn't help it anymore.
Take a deep breath, try to keep your face as straight as possible, and turn to look at him with a cold face as usual.
Her cold eyes were not as cold as usual. Xu Tonglu saw a hint of hidden shyness in her eyes.
Coupled with the fact that her cheeks were still flushed, she looked really cute in his eyes.
It's a pity that Shen Tuqing obviously doesn't think she is cute.
She also didn't like the way Xu Tonglu looked at her with a smile.
She sat up straight, tilted her head slightly toward him, and warned in a low voice: "You are not allowed to tell anyone what happened just now! Do you hear me?"
Xu Tonglu agreed happily.
Maybe it was because he agreed too readily that it made Shen Tuqing feel uneasy. She glanced at him sideways and frowned: "I'm warning you, not discussing with you. You should be more serious! Don't make such a playful face with me!"
Xu Tonglu cooperated with her and tried his best to suppress the smile on his face, but he couldn't control the slightly raised corners of his mouth, which looked so hateful in Shen Tuqing's eyes.
Her expression became stern, "Are you still laughing? Don't you want to do it anymore? Don't think that because I'm taking on your elder brother's case this time, you can be so presumptuous as me! Believe it or not, I'll let you go back now?"
Xu Tonglu felt her seriousness, his heart sank, and he felt a little flustered.
Before today, he never cared about the stability of his job.
Because he is very confident.
Be confident that with your abilities and education, you can still find a good job no matter how many times you lose your job.
In addition, the fact that the eldest brother's career has been so huge has also given him a confidence far beyond that of ordinary people.
But at this moment, he clearly felt that he was really nervous.
He suddenly realized that he was really afraid that she would really drive him away.
He... wants to stay by her side.
When he realized this in his heart, he knew that he was probably falling in love with Shen Tuqing.
He was 26 years old, had been studying for more than ten years, and had experienced many things. At this time, his surface emotions were still stable. He finally completely put away the smile on his face and eyes, and looked at it seriously.
Shen Tuqing nodded and promised, "Sister Qing, don't scare me like this. I swear, I will never tell anyone what happened just now, really!"
Shen Tuqing looked at his eyes coldly. After a moment, her face softened slightly, she exhaled, nodded slightly, and said softly: "That's best!"
After saying that, she looked at him one last time, and then continued to read the documents in her hand.
Xu Tonglu recognized this document.
It's the information about Sanyuan Real Estate and Ximen Real Estate that was faxed from my elder brother.
Seeing that the shyness on her face had faded and she started to look at the document intently again, he no longer stared at her as directly as before.
He looked forward and looked at Shen Tuqing from the corner of his eye.
He once thought that he would never truly fall in love with any woman in his life.
From a long time ago, he felt that he was different from ordinary people.
He was never attracted by girls who chased him.
Whether they wrote him a love letter, or blushed with shame and mustered up the courage to take the initiative to confess to him face to face, he felt calm when they fell in his eyes.
Not only am I not impressed, I also think they are coquettish.
I want to be with him because he is sexy.
He looked down upon them.
As for the other girls, he had no feelings either.
Therefore, at the age of 26, he has never liked any girl.
Sometimes he also wonders: Do he like men?
But, he has never been attracted to any man.
In recent years, his mentality has become more and more peaceful. In the dead of night, he will occasionally reflect on why he doesn't like girls.
Needless to say, he gradually found out the reason.
——Probably because the rumor that his father and his eldest aunt had eloped had been circulating for so long, which made him feel from the bottom of his heart that all beautiful women are coquettish.
Therefore, he subconsciously hates all good-looking women.
As for... those who don’t look good? Who would like those who don’t look good?
He doesn’t like the good-looking ones, and he doesn’t like the bad-looking ones. After so many years, he has naturally become calm.
But today, just now, he suddenly felt like he was attracted to senior sister Shen Tuqing.
In 26 years, this was the first time he realized that he liked a woman.
This strange and novel feeling made him unable to calm down, and he found that he was a little worried about gains and losses.
I'm afraid that if I can't end up with Shen Tuqing this time, will I be able to fall in love with another woman in this life?
On New Year's Eve, his eldest brother asked him and his sister to declare when they would find a partner.
He insisted on not expressing his position. In fact, he also wanted to satisfy his elder brother at that time.
It's just that he knows his own business.
He wasn't sure whether he would fall in love with any woman in his life, and he didn't want to live with just any woman, so on New Year's Eve, he didn't dare to give his eldest brother a guarantee.
At that time, what he was thinking was: I am not an only child. My eldest brother has already completed the task of carrying on the family line for me. Even if I never get married, it doesn't matter. I can treat my eldest brother's daughter and son as my own children.
of.
He is not a heartless person.
For so many years, my eldest brother has always remembered his care and dedication to this family, to him, to his mother, and to his sister.
He had already sworn in his heart that he would repay his elder brother well in this life.
Can……
The eldest brother hopes that he will get married and have children soon, which is really difficult for him.
but……
At this time, he looked at Shen Tuqing beside him with the corner of his eye, and he felt a little happy - Brother, I have found the woman who makes my heart beat. Dad, your spirit in heaven, bless me to impress her and make her yours.
Daughter-in-law…
Shen Tuqing was different in his heart.
It's always been different.
However, in his mind, the former Shen Tuqing was a career-oriented strong woman and an iceberg goddess.
You can watch it from a distance but don’t play with it.
Therefore, Xu Tonglu always respected and respected her, but could not feel any affection for her.
It wasn't until he saw her fear with his own eyes that he had a fragile heart beneath her strong appearance, that his heart suddenly moved.
While he was thinking about this in his mind, Shen Tuqing slowly turned around, stared at him coldly, frowned and asked, "Are you still looking? Do you think I was joking with you just now?"
Xu Tonglu did not panic this time. He turned his face slightly, looked directly at her, and said with a smile: "Sister Qing, I want to pursue you."
Xu Tonglu has never lacked courage. He has never lacked courage in anything, including love.
