"You... !" Jing Mo was so blocked that he couldn't say a word.
Leng Xilan couldn't be bothered to pay attention to her. The coffee in her hand was still burning. She recalled what Jing Mo said earlier. She was a little touched by Qi Mingxuan. She added two teaspoons of milk and a small amount of sugar to the black coffee before leaving in satisfaction. She did n' t care what the Jing Mo behind her looked like.
Leng Xilan knocked on the door of the office. After hearing Qi Mingxuan say' come in',she pushed the door open and put the coffee in front of Qi Mingxuan." Chief Qi,your coffee."
Qi Mingxuan gave an imperceptible nod. He picked up the coffee and didn't even take a sip. He just sniffed it and frowned. He looked at Leng Xilan and said," I think I said black coffee."
Leng Xilan explained," It's black coffee,but I added two teaspoons of milk and some sugar." Seeing that Qi Mingxuan was frowning,Leng Xilan hurriedly said," Chief Qi,black coffee is so bitter ……"
"I'm used to it." Qi Mingxuan put down the coffee in his hand and said," Make another cup."
Leng Xilan insisted," Chief Qi,black coffee is not good for your health. In the future,try to drink less."
When Qi Mingxuan said that,he stopped his work. He looked at Leng Xilan and asked," Assistant Leng,what do you mean?"
"I'm concerned about you." Leng Xilan spoke bluntly. Seeing Qi Mingxuan's gaze on her getting deeper and deeper,she hesitated for a moment before finally speaking," Although I do n' t know why you didn't forget about the past after I offended you yesterday and even got me this job,I' m very grateful. Thank you. If it weren't for you,this job would n' t have been my turn."
Qi Mingxuan gaze had always been deep like an ancient well that had existed for thousands of years,as if it could create a person,but at the same time,it could also destroy a person. The clouds were strange,making it difficult for people to see through it.
He didn't refuse or agree. Qi Mingxuan said softly," Let's go out."
He didn't know if Qi Mingxuan would accept his suggestion,but at least Leng Xilan expressed his gratitude. He did n' t say anything more and Leng Xilan left.
###Chapter7,Golden bachelor 2
That night,my good friend Lin Luofu invited Leng Xilan to a French restaurant near Qi Family Group.
By the time Leng Xilan arrived,Lin Luofu had already arrived.
"Why did you come so early?" Leng Xilan couldn't help but ask.
"I just came,too." Lin Luofu to be honest,even if he really came early,he wouldn't have said it early.
Lin Luofu invited her into the dining room.
Leng Xilan did not hold back and sat down.
With the warm lights and elegant style,this French restaurant was very suitable for couples to eat.
"Lanlan,why don't you eat it?" Lin Luofu saw Leng Xilan distractedly jabbing the table and asked with concern," Did you encounter anything bad at work?"
Leng Xilan shook her head. She saw the gentleness and worry in her eyes. She only wrinkled her nose and smiled apologetically." I'm a little distracted. I' m thinking about my mother. I don't know how she's doing alone. ."
After her father's death,Leng Xilan's mother was forced to bear the burden of raising Leng Xilan and paying off her debts. She was forced to crush her back and burn the roots of her illness. Her body became very bad. She moved to the countryside and said that the air there was better.
Not only did he have to bear the huge amount of money his father left behind,he also had to remember his sick mother.
Lin Luofu knew everything. He had also offered to help Leng Xilan pay off his debts,but Leng Xilan had only accepted the medical expenses for his mother's illness and promised to pay them back. He refused to accept the rest.
Such a thin and weak girl had hidden many unknown pain behind her.
Lin Luofu felt very distressed. The little princess in his heart should be favored in the palm of his hand,but she was worrying about money every day.
Lin Luofu comforted Leng Xilan by touching his head." Don't worry. Auntie will take care of yourself. You too. Take care of yourself. Do n' t work too hard."
"Yes,I will."
Leng Xilan nodded and his eyes softened. Lin Luofu was always so gentle,so good to her,and he was able to contain everything she had. It was like a flawless white jade without any edges or corners. It was so gentle and gentle.
If she could really show some affection for Lin Luofu,her heart would beat faster when facing him. She would probably live more easily. She couldn't give Lin Luofu what she wanted,but she could n' t bear to directly reject him.
"Why are you depressed again?" Lin Luofu eyes were always on Leng Xilan,so all the changes in his emotions fell into his eyes.
Leng Xilan smiled and lowered his head to start eating. He didn't say anything else.
Before she left,Leng Xilan went to the bathroom and coincidentally met Qi Mingxuan in the corridor.
Qi Mingxuan seemed to be discussing cooperation with others. The other party's attitude was n' t respectful,but he definitely didn't have the slightest bit of arrogance. Qi Mingxuan black suit was exceptionally outstanding between them. His refined and elegant face had a faint,formulaic smile on it,but his every move carried a noble and graceful Qi Mingxuan.
Qi Mingxuan obviously saw her as well. After whispering a few words to the people beside her,he walked over to Leng Xilan. His tone was somewhat unclear." A person?"
"And a good friend." Leng Xilan could clearly feel Qi Mingxuan feeling a little displeased. Although she did not know where the other party's displeasure came from,it was better not to dwell on it." If Chief Qi have anything to do,then go. I' m just about to leave."
"Lanlan,I'm done with it. Let's go." Lin Luofu walked to Leng Xilan side and turned to see the man opposite Leng Xilan. He said politely," Chief Qi,what a coincidence."
Qi Mingxuan nodded in greeting. When he came in,he saw Leng Xilan and Lin Luofu sitting by the window. They were chatting and laughing.
Lin Luofu was gentle and careful. He treated Leng Xilan like a treasure. His burning eyes were self-evident,and Leng Xilan also smiled brilliantly. They didn't reject each other's contact. The two of them were like lovers in love.
He had interacted with Lin Luofu a few times in private. Although the other party was gentle and cheerful and didn't put on airs,he was still a shrewd person. He would always deliberately distance himself,but he treated Leng Xilan differently.
The woman who was giving him a tit-for-tat smile when facing another man. For some reason,this kind of understanding made Qi Mingxuan slightly displeased. It was as if his own things had been coveted by outsiders,so when he saw Leng Xilan,he came over to ask.
"Do you know Chief Qi?" Leng Xilan approached Lin Luofu and asked.
"Chief Qi is famous in the mall. There are few people in City H who don't know Chief Qi. After that,he might have some cooperation with Qi Family Group. Chief Qi,let's give you some advice." Lin Luofu nodded and Dafang said," By the way,Lanlan work in Qi Family Group. Please take care of me."
Qi Mingxuan eyes narrowed dangerously. His handsome face gave off a dangerous aura. He glanced at the Leng Xilan without leaving any trace. Then,he reached out his hand and shook it." Let's teach each other."
Even the hands that held each other were unconsciously exerting force. Men and men were always the ones who knew each other the best. Especially those who had been in the mall for so long,they would never make any mistakes.
The war between men was always filled with smoke. Even if it was silent,not to mention the two men who met each other,they were still enemies in the marketplace.
"If there's nothing else,we' ll leave. Chief Qi's busy." Lin Luofu said. He turned to look at the Leng Xilan beside him and said softly," Lanlan,let's go and see you home."
Normally,Lin Luofu was sunny and cheerful. When talking to people,they always had a smile on their faces. Now,when facing Qi Mingxuan,they were somewhat distant.
Leng Xilan wasn't stupid. He could naturally sense the confrontation between the two men in front of him. He guessed that there was some sort of dispute at the mall,so he nodded and said to Qi Mingxuan," Chief Qi goodbye."
Qi Mingxuan eyes became a little sinister. The man and woman who had left walked side by side. Although the two of them did not have physical contact,they would occasionally look at each other and talk. The atmosphere was exceptionally harmonious,as if no one could blend in with them.
Outside the restaurant,Lin Luofu didn't ask Qi Mingxuan any further. Instead,he mentioned something else," Lanlan,there's a banquet tomorrow night. I want to invite you to attend with me."
Leng Xilan frowned slightly. She wanted to reject Lin Luofu,but she saw the look of anticipation on her face. She couldn't help but be ruthless. There were too few things she could give Lin Luofu. It was just a dinner party it should n' t be a problem.
"Yes,I promise." Leng Xilan smiled and nodded." But you have to take charge of my dress and design."
Lin Luofu smiled." That's a must. I' ll pick you up at your office tomorrow night."
"Okay."
###Chapter8,Dinner Party
Because Qi Mingxuan happened to bump into her on the first day of work,Jing Mo didn't openly cause Leng Xilan trouble the next day. He just kept telling her to do some tedious and boring things.
Leng Xilan knew that Jing Mo was doing it on purpose,but he couldn't help but endure it. Although it was a little uncomfortable,this day was peaceful.
The banquet was scheduled to be held at a famous hotel in City H. Lin Luofu picked up the Leng Xilan an hour earlier. Leng Xilan even argued with Jing Mo for this hour.
The early spring night was still a bit cold in winter. Fortunately,the dinner was indoors.
Leng Xilan heard Lin Luofu said that this banquet was the birthday of a certain boss. The people who were invited here were all famous people in City H. This boss had a daughter who had just returned from abroad. Therefore,this banquet was one for the birthday celebration and the other for choosing a target for his precious daughter.
At this point,Lin Luofu winked at Leng Xilan and smiled." I don't want to be picked,so please Miss Leng do n' t leave my side and act as my girlfriend."
Leng Xilan didn't know how to refuse Lin Luofu seemingly reasonable request,so he nodded." Remember,you owe me one."
There were many people and Leng Xilan stood by Lin Luofu side obediently. After listening to the conversation between him and the boss Hao Guangwei Hao,he seemed to mention Lin Luofu father.
"Mingxuan." While Hao Guangwei was talking to Lin Luofu,he saw Qi Mingxuan who had just entered the door.
As soon as Qi Mingxuan entered the arena,someone who was as sharp-eyed as Hao Guangwei recognized him. He let out a sigh as the strangers around him looked at him and whispered.
"Mingxuan,you were so busy at first,but I thought you wouldn't come. I did n' t expect you to give face to this old man." Hao Guangwei seemed to be quite familiar with Qi Mingxuan. She smiled and said," Why don't you bring a companion? With such a big man and a thriving career,it's time to think about your marriage."
The corner of Qi Mingxuan's mouth curled into a polite and distant smile. He picked up the champagne in his hand and looked at Hao Guangwei for a moment,but did not reply Hao Guangwei words.
The meaning of the Hao Guangwei was very obvious. Among all the young talents in City H,he liked two of them the most. The Qi Family Group Qi Mingxuan and the Crown Prince's Lin Luofu.
