Chapter 173 You See Through It



As he spoke, he had already handed the tea to Zhang Yaoyao again.

Zhang Yaoyao: “…”

Zhang Yaoyao didn't expect Lu Sinian to stand up again and pour her a cup of tea. She silently glanced at the man's gentle eyebrows, carefully took the tea, and said something.

"Thanks!"

After saying that, he picked up the teacup, took another sip, then held the cup in his hand and stopped drinking.

A small touch of emotion flashed through her heart. Lu Sinian, this man, who usually looked cold, was actually very thoughtful. He could actually observe that she was thirsty and refilled her tea again.

When Mr. Wang walked in from outside, he immediately noticed his grandson and Zhang Yaoyao in the office. They were sitting together, facing each other, and the atmosphere was quiet and ambiguous.

His nephew's eyes were fixed on Zhang Yaoyao drinking tea. There was a light in his eyes that he didn't understand. The old man subconsciously stopped and stepped aside. He looked around. There was no one there and it was quiet.

It was estimated that all the employees in the company had their heights measured and left, and only Zhang Yaoyao and Lu Sinian were left in the office. Mr. Wang rolled his eyes, closed the office door gently, and turned to walk downstairs.

He doesn't understand love between young people, nor does he want to understand it, and he doesn't want to interfere. But if Zhang Yaoyao and Lu Sinian can really create a little spark as they get along with each other day by day, Grandpa Wang really doesn't mind Zhang Yaoyao becoming his granddaughter-in-law.

Grandpa Wang said silently in his heart, Grandson, this is all I can do to help you, the rest is up to you.

At this moment in the office, Zhang Yaoyao finished the second cup of tea in her hand, and Lu Sinian also finished the tea in his hand. Then Zhang Yaoyao stood up, adjusted the tape measure in her hand, and whispered.

"Lu Sinian, everyone on the list has had their heights measured. You're the only one left. It's getting late. Stand up. I'll measure you. I have to hurry back."

Zhang Yaoyao had promised Xiao Zifeng in the morning that she would attend the social party with him tonight. She didn't want to go back on her word, so she had to hurry.

Lu Sinian stood up lazily, glanced at the setting sun, and raised his hand in cooperation.

"Why are you in such a hurry? After all, this deal you got from my grandfather's company is also considered a group purchase. It's only five o'clock in the afternoon, so it's still early for dinner. As for the clothing store, Ah Yue will help you take care of it."

Lu Sinian left early in the morning, so he naturally didn't know that Xiao Zifeng had invited Zhang Yaoyao to attend the social gathering tonight. Ever since Zhang Yaoyao devoted herself to her career, Lu Sinian found that Zhang Yaoyao had a strong sense of time and would never procrastinate when she could save every second. She rushed back now, probably thinking of handing the group purchase order to Mrs. Yan and the others, and then hurrying to cook.

The two of them finally had some time to be alone together. Lu Sinian felt for no reason that there was no need to rush. They could just sit quietly and drink some tea before going back.

Zhang Yaoyao had already stood up and sorted out the tape measure in her hand, ready to measure Lu Sinian's size, and replied casually.

"I'm busy with store business and cooking. My friends and I are going out to attend a social gathering tonight. I'm telling you in advance that I'll ask Ah Yue to make a simple dinner for you and Ma Kaixuan. I'll make up for it with a hearty dinner when I have time."

Since they were going to a social party, they had to choose clothes, put on makeup, etc., so naturally they couldn't find time to cook for them.

Lu Sinian retracted his outstretched hand, and his expression suddenly became serious. He stared straight at the beautiful and delicate little face in front of him and said seriously.

"Who are you with at the social party?"

But his mind was racing. Who else could invite Zhang Yaoyao to the social gathering? Could it be that Xiao Zifeng?

Fortunately, Zhang Yaoyao's next answer quickly verified Lu Sinian's guess.

"Xiao Zifeng, their school is organizing a social party tonight!"

Lu Sinian: “…”

That guy really had bad intentions. He started to ask Zhang Yaoyao out so quickly.

Thinking of this, a dark light flashed in a man's eyes, and he said sullenly.

"You and Xiao Zifeng went to the social party. Aren't you afraid of causing misunderstandings and making people think that there is something... ambiguous between you and him"?

As far as he knew, Xiao Zifeng was the golden bachelor of their school and he was rarely seen with female companions. But today he specially brought Zhang Yaoyao to attend the school social gathering. His purpose was obvious, he wanted to tell the world that there was something going on between him and Zhang Yaoyao.

This realization made Lu Sinian feel extremely uncomfortable, and his mood became inexplicably heavy.

Compared to Lu Sinian's depression, Zhang Yaoyao looked indifferent and said casually.

"I'm a single girl, just attending a social gathering with some people. Why should I worry about others misunderstanding me? This is just business as usual. As the saying goes, a man with a clear conscience fears no scorn. What others think is their business. I just want to live my own life."

Lu Sinian: "I didn't expect you to be so open-minded! Why didn't I see it before?"

Zhang Yaoyao: “…”

Does it have anything to do with being open-minded? It's just like accompanying someone to a social gathering.

Zhang Yaoyao was very depressed. When she looked up, she saw Lu Sinian's eyes were as calm as water, and his face was visibly cold. She decided not to discuss the matter of her attending the social gathering anymore. It was all her fault for speaking out too quickly. She quickly changed the subject and said,

"Okay, stop talking about that nonsense. Just stand still and raise your hands. I'll measure you. We have to finish things here quickly and rush back to give your company's employee clothing list and sizes to Sister Yan and the others!"

Lu Sinian raised his hand again, making a gesture to make it easier for Zhang Yaoyao to measure the clothes, and said sourly.

"Alright, let's measure it quickly. You seem so anxious to get back. It's just a social gathering, right? Why are you in such a hurry?"

But I thought to myself, it’s just Xiao Zifeng, is it worth it for you to fight for every second for him?

Zhang Yaoyao: “…”

Since you have seen through me, I will not quibble any more.

After adjusting the tape measure in her hand, Zhang Yaoyao grabbed the other end of the tape measure with her slender fingers, walked up to Lu Sinian, and put the tape measure on Lu Sinian. She found that the man in front of her usually looked tall and straight, with a long stature and long legs, but even though she was nearly 1.7 meters tall and stood in front of Lu Sinian, she was still a head shorter than him.

Because of the huge height difference, it was inconvenient for Zhang Yaoyao to measure Lu Sinian's height where she was standing, so she deliberately took a step forward to shorten the distance between them, but just as she took a step forward.
