After a nightmare, Nan Tao mistakenly believes she is a cannon fodder female supporting character in a novel, destined for a tragic end.
While feeling distressed, she suddenly hears her son&#...
Chapter 80
Nan Bo nodded.
Lin Yirou looked at Nan Bo, her heartbeat quickening and her face flushing. She couldn't help but whisper, "Boss Nan, here's the menu, would you like to take a look?"
Nan Bo said calmly, "Put it up there."
Lin Yirou obediently placed the menu on the table and asked, "Aren't you going to order now?"
Nan Bo checked his watch and saw that everyone was almost there, so he said, "You go out first."
Lin Yirou bit her red lip, her eyes glued to Nan Bo, reluctant to leave. After a long while, she said, "Okay, I'll be out then. I'm right at the door. If you need anything, just call me. I'll be right in."
After saying that, seeing that Nan Bo did not respond, Lin Yirou felt a little disappointed, but still very happy. She had not seen President Nan at work during the day, but she did not expect to see him here at night. Thinking of this, her heart felt sweet, and she could not help but smile shyly.
The other waiters rolled their eyes when they saw this. "What are you doing with your sexuality again?"
Lin Yirou felt wronged, "I didn't."
When the other waiters heard that I didn't say a word, they immediately got a headache and moved two meters away from her.
Lin Yirou stood alone, dejected, like a delicate little white flower, isolated by her companions, trembling but still resilient and strong.
After a while, a tall woman with a high ponytail and wearing black casual sportswear walked to the door of the box. The woman had no makeup on, and her facial features were as delicate as a rose, bright as fire, like a scorching sun shining on the people around her, making people unable to help but look over.
Lu Yao, holding a dripping wet umbrella, pushed open the door of the box and hurried in. "Sorry, there was a sudden thunderstorm outside, which delayed me for a few minutes. I hope I didn't keep you waiting too long."
Nan Bo heard the voice that had been haunting him, and subconsciously looked up. He stood up in a panic, and his elbow hit the water cup on the table, which fell to the ground with a clang. When he took a step forward, he was tripped by a chair and almost fell.
Lu Yao took a quick step forward and quickly helped the man steady himself.
Nan Bo felt the burning sensation on his arm, and the tips of his ears couldn't help but turn red. He coughed softly, "Lu Yao?"
Lu Yao finally got a closer look at who her blind date was, and immediately patted Nan Bo's shoulder like a good friend, "Ha, it's you. Long time no see."
Nan Bo staggered after being hit and started coughing again.
Lu Yao pulled Nan Bo back and stood up straight, and asked with concern: "Are you okay? Are you sick?"
Nan Bo shook his head: "I'm not sick."
Lu Yao: "I didn't expect that after all these years, you're still so fragile."
Nan Bo: “…I didn’t.”
He exercises in the gym all year round, and what happened just now was an accident.
Nan Tao, who was peeking from the next room, smiled widely, "Hahahaha, my brother is weak, hahahaha..."
Nan's mother laughed softly and said, "Be quiet, don't let anyone hear you."
Nan Tao covered her mouth, laughed enough, and whispered, "Mom, it seems they know each other?"
Nan's mother shook her head: "I don't know either. Lu Yao has been abroad since graduating from university."
Nan Tao: "It seems that my brother has a crush on her. Look at the way my young wife looked just now."
Nan's mother also saw her mature, steady, and gentle son with such an expression for the first time. After hesitating for a moment, she finally explained, "Maybe this little girl is very strong? Her parents run a martial arts school, promoting traditional Chinese culture. In recent years, they have opened branches of the school abroad and recruited foreign students."
Nan Tao's eyes widened, her eyes full of stars, and she said admiringly: "Wow, so amazing! No wonder my brother is so tall, she grabbed him in one go."
Nan Ma: "Yaoyao is proficient in all kinds of Chinese martial arts. She has also learned Taekwondo, Judo, and Sanda, and has won many national and world championships."
After hearing this, Nan Tao admired Lu Yao even more and looked at Lu Yao in the next box with starry eyes.
Lu Yao is a little over 170 cm but less than 175 cm tall, with long legs, fair skin, delicate features, especially her pair of round almond-shaped eyes with distinct black and white. At first glance, she looks like a simple and carefree girl.
Lu Yao said "oh", helped Nan Bo sit down, and pulled out a chair to sit next to him.
The warm touch disappeared from his skin, and Nan Bo felt a little lost. He looked at Lu Yao without blinking, and she looked like his biological sister Nan Tao, who had the same father and mother as him.
Lu Yao was a carefree person and didn't feel anything at all. "I didn't expect that the handsome guy my mom was talking about was you, hahahaha."
Nan Bo's ears turned red again, "Auntie, are you praising me like that?"
Lu Yao curled her lips: "My mom praises you to the sky. She stares at me every day and asks me how our chats on WeChat are going."
Nan Bo felt a little regretful and wished that time could go back. If he had known that his blind date was Lu Yao, he should not have been so cold during the WeChat chat. What if Lu Yao had a bad impression of him?
Nan Bo was worried about being misunderstood, so he quickly said, "I didn't know it was you. Please don't mind our previous conversation."
Lu Yao didn't take it seriously at all, and waved her hand, saying, "I understand, no one wants to go on a blind date."
No, you don't understand, I think.
Nanbo denied it three times, "I didn't do it, I'm fine, there's no problem."
Lu Yao looked at Nan Bo in surprise.
Nan Bo quickly pretended to drink some water, but found that the cup had fallen to the ground. He pretended to be calm and changed the subject: "How have you been living abroad these years? Why did you suddenly come back?"
Lu Yao: "My mom is urging me to get married. If I don't get married, she'll start domestic violence against me."
Nan Bo: “…”
Lu Yao: "I thought you got married a long time ago, but I didn't expect you to end up like me, having to rely on blind dates to find a partner, haha."
Nan Bo: “…”
Nan Tao in the next box heard this and laughed to death, "I can't take it anymore, my future sister-in-law is so interesting, mom, I like this sister-in-law."
Nan's mother also liked it: "It depends on whether your brother has the ability to pursue her. I think Yaoyao seems to be a slow learner. Your brother will suffer."
Nan Bo, who was chatting with Lu Yao, felt a chill on the back of his neck, as if someone was talking about him.
"I'm so hungry. Have you ordered food?" Lu Yao asked.
Nan Bo: "I'll ask the waiter to come in. What would you like to eat?"
Lu Yao: "Anything is fine. I'm not picky about food."
Lin Yirou outside heard the bell ringing, pushed the door open with the menu and walked in. She looked at President Nan, then looked at the beautiful woman next to President Nan, and finally couldn't help but let the tears fall from her eyes.
"Mr. Nan, this is the menu, you and this lady..." Lin Yirou said with a sob.
Seeing this, Lu Yao immediately perked up, her eyes actively scanning back and forth between Lin Yirou and Nan Bo, "You guys...?"
Nan Bo quickly explained: "I don't know her well. She is a company employee and works here part-time."
Lu Yao said "oh" twice, looked at the waiter's red eyes, and then looked at Nan Bo with a cold face. The domineering CEO novels she had read over the years automatically played in her head, and her eyes were full of wise light that said "I understand, I understand."
Nan Bo was afraid that Lu Yao might misunderstand, so he said coldly, "Go out first and get another waiter."
Lin Yirou was heartbroken, her eyes red, and she ran out crying.
In the next room, Nan Tao watched this scene and said with a sigh, "He just ran away crying?"
Nan Ma sighed and said, "What is love in this world?"
Nan Tao echoed: "The person I love doesn't love me, and the person I don't love loves me, hahahaha..."
Nan's mother said angrily, "Be quiet, don't let your brother hear you."
Nan Tao quickly covered her mouth.
Yu Ze looked at his mommy on the left, then looked at his grandma on the right, and shook his head like a little adult.
After Nan Bo and Lu Yao finished their meal, it was already very late, but it was still raining heavily outside. The raindrops hit the ground with a crackling sound, and there was no sign of easing. In fact, with the strong wind, the rain seemed to be getting heavier.
Nanbo Gentleman suggested, "It's raining so hard, it might be hard to get a taxi. Where do you live? I can take you back."
Lu Yao thought about it and said, "Okay."
After the two left, Nan Ma Nan Tao appeared in the first floor lobby of the restaurant with Yu Ze.
Nan Tao looked at the heavy rain outside and said, "Mom, you can sleep at my place tonight."
Nan Ma did not refuse.
Nan Tao called the driver and asked him to drive the car to the restaurant entrance.
While waiting, Nan Tao went to the bathroom. When she came out, she accidentally saw Lin Yiruo with red eyes nestled in the man's arms.
Nan Tao instantly smelled gossip and quickly dodged into the women's restroom. She quietly stuck her head out and looked out, and the man happened to look up.
After seeing the man's appearance clearly, Nan Tao was stunned. It was Gu Bai.
Nan Tao looked strange. The two people had nothing in common, so how could they know each other?
Not far away, Gu Bai's words of comfort to Lin Yirou were heard.
Gu Bai: "Be good, don't cry. What happened today? Who made you sad?"
Lin Yirou leaned tightly against Gu Bai's arms, her fragile white neck exposed to the man's sight, her red eyes revealing a little bird-like sadness, "Wow, Mr. Gu, I'm heartbroken."
Gu Bai paused in his soothing voice: "Broken heart?"
Lin Yirou cried, "I saw him with another woman, and he even chased me out, wuwuwu..."
Nan Tao frowned as she listened to the conversation, and her impression of Lin Yiru suddenly became worse.
What does it mean to be heartbroken? What does it mean to be with another woman? Her brother doesn't like Lin Yiru. They are just in a superior-subordinate relationship, not a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. Her brother can be with whoever he wants. What does it have to do with Lin Yiru?
Lin Yirou's tone as if Nan Bo was cheating on her made Nan Tao very uncomfortable, and she suddenly felt that Lin Yirou was a little white flower.
Moreover, Lin Yirou and Gu Bai were so intimate, it was obvious that there was something fishy going on between them. Was this a case of eating one thing and still thinking about another? Her brother was truly innocent.
Gu Bai felt distressed, "How dare he do this to you? You are so kind and pure, how could you suffer such injustice?"
Lin Yirou felt even more aggrieved as Gu Bai comforted her. "Xiaobai, wuwuwu..."
Gu Bai placed a gentle kiss on the center of Lin Yirou's hair. "It's raining so hard outside. Why don't you come to my house tonight? My house is nearby."
Lin Yirou was so moved that her eyes were filled with tears. "But what about my job? My dad needs medical expenses. I can't leave..."
Gu Bai said distressedly: "Don't worry, I will help you pay for your uncle's medical expenses."
Lin Yirou: "How can this be possible? My father taught me not to take advantage of others since I was a child. I don't accept it. It's okay. Even if it's sad, I have to work hard. I can't be irresponsible."
Gu Bai said lovingly, "You...ah, there's really nothing I can do about you. I know the manager here. I'll talk to him later and ask your colleagues to help you with the work. Your salary won't be deducted today."
Lin Yirou hugged Gu Bai tightly: "You are so good to me, woooo... Thank you so much, Mr. Gu..."
Nan Tao, who was hiding in the bathroom watching this scene, had an expression that was hard to describe, "What the hell is going on."
After Gu Bai and Lin Yirou left, Nan Tao rubbed her sore and numb legs and quickly left.
Nan's mother: "Why did you take so long?"
Nan Tao told a little lie, and then when she saw the driver drive the car to the door of the restaurant, she got in the car with her mother and son.
It was raining heavily and the driver had a hard time driving all the way. It took him twice as long as usual to get back to Wanyuanzhuang.
When I got home, Yu Zhengyang hadn't come back yet.
Nan Tao muttered something about being a workaholic, and then she and her mother stayed in the home theater to watch TV. Finally, when they were too sleepy, they went back to their room to wash up and go to bed.
At night, the cold white moonlight shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows onto Nan Tao's face, making her fair and delicate face look a little pale.
At this time, Nan Tao's eyeballs trembled rapidly, as if she was neither awake nor awake. She wanted to open her eyes but couldn't.
Nan Tao knew that she was awake and that she was dreaming, but she couldn't wake up.
He had no choice but to let his body float, and somehow he floated to Lin Yiru's side.
Nan Tao wondered, could it be because he met Lin Yiru tonight that he dreamed about her?
She saw Lin Yirou walking into a narrow alley. Lin Yirou lowered her head and did not notice a gangster with dyed red hair walking out in front of her.
"Give me the phone in your hand and the valuables on you!"
Lin Yiru's family was poor and she was reluctant to spend money. Being robbed was a huge blow to her. She struggled desperately and shouted for help.
Suddenly, a tall figure heard the cry for help and ran in. He threw the red-haired man to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw and subdued him instantly.
